DANG! I went to get my diary and I broke something. It's super troublesome to break things with all the cleaning up to do. Arggh. Just finish cleaning it, damn damn damn troublesome.

I got bugged too. Cannot stop coughing now. -.- With mild sore throat. Not on medication yet, if it still persists then I will be.

I just finished a book today, sorry that I can't reveal the Title of the Book. It was a book that is very hard to understand. The author uses many old English(It was written in 1913 and finished in 1914.) and the language of the book seems too difficult that too many a time I got lost. But reading through the book, it has many interesting quotes that I would like to share with you guys.

But he saw only dying light and a dead land. He uttered no prayer, believed in no deity, and knew that the past was devoid of meaning like the present, and a refuge for cowards.

Blessed are the uneducated, who forget it entirely, and are never conscious of folly or pruriency in the past, of long aimless conversations.

Love was an emotion through which you occasionally enjoyed yourself. It could not do things.

This quotes really sets me thinking when I was reading the book. Maybe it doesn't to you, but different individuals sees things differently.

I might re-read the book someday, perhaps when my command of English gets stronger, maybe then will I be able to understand what the author was trying to express in this novel that wasn't published till 1971, a year after the author has passed away in 1970.

Twilight seems to be the fad now, everyone seems to be talking about Twilight and how good the book is and screaming girls that are all so crazy over this Edward person. And, yes, I bought the book and I hope it lives up to it's reputation. Ting told me I wouldn't like the book though, because I'm the mystery kind. She didn't like it either. I'm gonna start reading it soon.

I know this is a random post.

Thanks for reading anyway,
Tschüß!
