When all the ADGASF in the world just will not suffice

~Why do shows keep telling me that the ingredient that makes food taste wonderful is `love`? How in the love of everything tasty does one add `love` into food? I don`t see them selling it in packets or bottles(But if they did, i bet they`d sell like hotcakes.) I just. How??

~I doubt anyone cares, but I have been in a terrible mood of late... Somehow the fantasy which I have been living in for so long is allowing reality to stick its *** into my life... Gosh I hate writing this but I feel so bad for not updating for so long and I`ve been trying my best to avoid updating, but the time has come... Oh well, from now on I believe I shall be updating on every Saturday or Sunday only.(And any other time I feel like updating, which should be rare.)

~Anyway, I went to Hat Yai in Thailand recently for Chinese New Year, it was awesome... I bought many hoodie shirts and a Death note shirt for RM10.00 with L on it... When I returned back from my trip, i have been feeling sick in my stomach with life... I mean, we are all going to die anyway, so why live??

~L and gang chasing Kira

~Also, my parents have started watching Death Note cause I showed it to them and now they love it. They`re already at episode 30... I watched L die again... life is harsh in so many ways... I love this Gif. I mean, what`s there not to love? YOU HAVE KIRA IN A FRUIT BASKET THING BEING CHASED BY OUR 4 HEROES IN WEIRD BLACK SUITS!!

~I watched the first episode of Amnesia, sadly it`s not to my taste for me to carry on. Why must the female in this show act so helpless? I get it that she`s lost her memory and all, but I just feel like slapping her and screaming `get a grip! Stop using that irritating voice!` She made me shun the show ._. I do like the art though, and the eyes of the characters are really quite... unique.

~Then I watched an episode of Blue Exorcist. It has a good beginning and I`ll watch more once I complete reading Magi manga. Yup. In this time that I have been absent from Blogger, I completed watching Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic anime until episode 19. Now I`ll have the pains of waiting eagerly for Thursdays to arrive to watch the next episodes... At least the Manga is not too similar to the anime so far. (I`m at chapter 10 now, just began reading today afternoon.)

~I rambled on about how awesome Magi was on my private blog because, well, my ravings should be private if I don`t wanna go to jail... That blog has been getting lots of my attention lately, probably because I can write about whatever I like without getting bothered about hurting another party with my words. So my absence over here does not mean I have stopped tapping on the keyboard... I`d die if that happened... Literally.

~Now I have a greater problem to face. STUDIES. Yes. Reality is just stabbing me all over with the most adfyug of esfhweofh. And the novel I am working on I have realized I am writing to tell the stories of these characters who tell me their tales. Which is difficult because sometimes I seriously feel what I am writing is crap and I simply want to quit and hide under a rock like Patrick Star. Oh, how I envy you, Patrick Star... with your epic ability to remain so damn ignorant to the world around you... *raises fist in anger* = =

~I want to go on an adventure. Wait... no. I want to have an adventure with a purpose/destination/quest in mind. Like Bilbo Baggins(needs to retrieve ring) or Aladdin from Magi(dungeon diving and all his awesome journeys). Anyone going on a quest and needs a friend?

~*Sigh* What happened to my writing tone? Where`s the usual cheerfulness? Reality, where did you hide it? 

~I am watching Elementary with my mother in the afternoons. We are already at episode 10. I am not enjoying it as how I enjoyed Sherlock. Elementary feels like i`m watching CSI ._. What makes Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock Holmes, is, well, Moriarty and Irene Adler. Where in the doodles are they hiding in this show??

~I want an ANIMELAND. Like, Disneyland. Only filled with anime. Does ANIMELAND already exist? Let me google it. *googles it* Okay.... weird language came out ._. Also, Resident Evil(the latest one) was so bad I slept in the middle of it. (See? Writing this here makes me think like a million times before writing it cause the whole world can see it!)

~I`m off to watch Lincoln now. Tomorrow I`m going to watch Cloud Atlas at Gurney with my cousin. Toodles.(Also, can I just begin to post random crap on this blog without thinking so much, please? Like this post. PLEASE!!)

Character Encounters

~I decided to do this Character Encounters thing Kendra is having!! Here`s the link => Character Encounters. *Dances* I had fun doing it!! (HAPPY BIRTHDAY KENDRA!!!! =D ) Here`s my character(s) encounters :

A piece of chocolate cake made a full arc before hitting me right in the face. Giggling, I keep moving to dodge the other eatables coming from every direction. What had caused this disaster to ensue? Beats me. One moment we are all celebrating Kendra`s birthday, singing her birthday song, and the next moment her cousin grabs a handful of tiny pretzels and throws them at the boy sitting beside him. Something about wanting the first piece of cake.

Naturally the boy retaliated, and now everyone got dragged into it. The lady with the camera was screaming for order. Tough luck. I looked down at my mustard stained dress and smirked. Mum is going to freak out when she sees this. Told her dresses bring bad luck! 

But the food fight was getting a little too violent for my liking. I needed a place to shield myself from the chaos until everybody regained their sanity. Frantically looking left and right, I spotted the long food table covered with a what used to be white table cloth which fell all the way down to the ground. Perfect!

Running towards the long table, I ducked a flying pie. I went under the table cloth(which was now stained to look like a rainbow made out of sauces) and into a narrow space. Apparently I was not the only one who thought to take cover. There was a ginger haired girl sitting beside me, her back to me. She was talking to someone in front of her. Tapping her shoulder, I said :

"Excuse me, but could you scoot over? It`s quite cramped over here."

She turned around to face me, her violet eyes making contact with my black ones. I gasped in shock. Her ears! They were the pointiest ears I have ever seen! But that was not the reason I was shocked. I`ve seen people spend good money to get plastic surgery done to make their ears look elf like. I gasped because the face I was staring at belonged to Savera. 

"I`m sorry." Savera said as her companion pulled her closer towards the other end. Only, her companion was Moon, the fox-kind! With the mauve furred fox ears and tail swishing behind her and everything! I was sure they noticed my astonished countenance immediately.

"Are you okay, miss?" Savera asked, waving her hand in front of my face.

"Savera? Is that really you?" I asked, poking her cheek. Then I turned to look at Moon and touched her ears. They were so soft! Like petting a really fluffy dog! 

Moon shoved my hand a way, knitting her eyebrows. "Don`t do that!"

"You guys dimension hopping?" I asked, folding my legs and looking around. "So, where`s Renex, Nixil, Aleha and the rest?" We sat in a sort of circle, unable to make a proper circle thanks to the lack of space. The noise from above has yet to subside.

"Yup! Renex has gone to find an Internet connection and Nixil found- OW!" Savera exclaimed, rubbing her arm.

"Idiot! Don`t tell this person anything! We know nothing about her! How does she even know us??" I heard Moon whisper angrily at Savera. I smiled.

"Don`t you remember, Moon? Our dreams have been linked for ages! You and me and the rest of the gang!" Moon`s   eyes narrowed while Savera`s eyes widened.

"Yes! Yes, I remember! But only in dreams! I told you sooo much of my life! You`re supposed to keep a journal on everything I tell you, right? So how`s that been going?" Savera asked, all in one go.

I scratched the back of my head. "Um, well... I`m still working on it..."

Moon came closer to me, staring at me suspiciously. Then she uttered a very familiar song. "Kiss the moon, dream of noon. Sing a tune, to banish the gloom." 

"Catch a star, from a far. Make a wish, and hatred will perish." I continued with ease. Moon grinned.

"You`re the psychiatrist I keep meeting at Dreamland, aren`t you? How`s your book going?"

I rolled my eyes. "Can the both of you stop asking about it? I`m working on it, okay?"

The table cloth got pushed up and in came a female with similar features to Moon. "Hey guys! Look what some kid threw at me!" Star exclaimed, shoving a bag of potato chips in Moon`s face as she took a seat beside her sister. Her hair was dripping wet with soda, but she seemed not to mind. "No matter where you are in the universe, they charge you for the air inside the potato chip packet!" She turned the packet around and saw the price tag, her eyes widening. "At least where we come from, it`s reasonably priced!"

"Hey Star." Star looked up at me.

"Oh. Hey River."

"Can I know what happened to the rest of you guys?"

"Oh, yeah! As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted." The elf glared at Moon, who rolled her eyes. "Nix found this really interesting plant that eats flies and is trying to see how it works. Aleha tagged along with Ela. Problem is, we don`t know where Ela went!"

"And we were devising a plan to find her before we were interrupted." Moon added. I took notice of the links of silver made to be a bracelet around their hands. Star crunched on a potato chip noisily(but it was subdued greatly by the commotion outside the safety of below the table.) and offered the chips around. I took one and ate it. Salty.

"I say we go out there and scream for her. Nothing works better than yelling. Why do you think parents do it all the time?" Star suggested.

Right at that moment, the table got knocked over. Once again, my being was jeopardized.(and so was my dress.) The scenario had still not changed. In fact, it was just getting worse. I saw Kendra having fun though, so the food fight was not a total loss. 

At that moment, the front door slammed open. Everyone paused in mid action, staring at the entrance. The lady behind the camera earlier now stood there holding a loudspeaker. She yelled into it, warning everybody that if they did not clean up this mess right away, the party would be over and their parents would hear about this. A wave of sighs were heard around the room as food was dropped and shoulders slouched.

 Looking around, I noticed that the elf and the fox-kind siblings were missing in action. Did they just leave me like that? I searched my surroundings in vain. As I slumped my head, I saw a napkin on my shoulder. Yuck! Removing it from my shoulder, I realized that there were words written using mustard on it in horrible writing. Squinting, I attempted at deciphering it.

`Gtg! Wil Upd8 u at DrmLd!` I smiled.

Colouring Up

~When I grow up I`m gonna become a pilot and crash the plane on an deserted island in such a way that no one dies but the island is uncharted so that we can have our own episodes of LOST. (Only this will involve real life hardships and friendships being recorded via hand-phone till the batteries run out and maybe, if we`re lucky, a couple of zombies and huge as heck birds we can train and fly on.)

~And that, my friends, is what happens when you take Marijuana and start typing. *Weee!!* Ahem. Okay, back to reality. Colouring up was one of the articles on the Star newspapers (3/2/2013) today. I tried locating the link online to share it here, but I can`t find it. So, here it is :

Most of us know colour plays an important role in our lives, right? It helps us differentiate objects and chemicals, and, obviously, makes life much more joyful. It prevents dullness. It`s also used to persume our moods and personalities.



~The newspapers says each of us has a 'life path colour' To find your life path colour, write down your date of birth, treating each figure as a single digit, then add them together until you arrive at a number between 1 and 9. I was born on 18 September 1995. Add up 1+8+0+9+1+9+9+5 to get 42, then 4+2 to get 6. This means that I`m an indigo person. 

~Erm, okay.... There`s too much to copy from the newspapers and it`s under copyright! Nyehhhhh! I can`t find the link to it either.... Anyway, I`ll just list the numbers from one to nine and their respective colours. You Google to find out more! (Like I did for Indigo.) I`ll also try to find links about the personalities and link them to the colour. Here goes :

1. Red. - Passionate people. Straight forward and direct. Thrives for success. Dynamic but has short attention span. Leaders.
2. Orange. - Responds with feelings. Suited career in counseling, community work or politics. Relaxed and sociable. Low self-esteem (sometimes).
3. Yellow. - Fun and witty. Talented writer when you have the patience. Books draw you in. Journalism, accounting, bank marketing, computers suits you. Prone to insomnia.
4.  Green. - Likes company but occasionally needs space. Likes order. Plans ahead. Prepares for the future. Doesn`t like taking risks. Cling to emotions and possessions. Suitable careers include aromatherapy, gardening and florist.
5. Blue. - Great storytellers. Vivid imagination. Need to be able to communicate. Would be a good doctor, nurse and carer. Honesty is important. Good debater. Music to relax. 
6. Indigo. - Deep and mysterious. Actively involved or opt out completely. Finely tuned sixth sense. Predictive dreams. Good psychotherapist. Optimist. Becomes easily obsessed with people, places, situations. Prone to hormonal imbalances.
7. Violet. - Career in fashion, interior design or fine art appeals you. Eye for quality than cost. Powerful imagination. Prone to headaches and feeling `spaced out`. Do NOT suppress your creativity.
8. Rose/pink. - Often move away from where they were born. Prefer to let others take the limelight. Sees potential in everyone and tries to guide them. Job in personnel, administration or as a PA will suit them. Patient and understanding. When feeling stressed, exercise. 
9. Gold. - Approachable people. As a child, adults confided in you and strangers told you secrets. Drawn to teaching. Has incredible talent. Perfectionist. Sees vulnerability as a weakness

~WARNING : I`m not sure if what is stated on the newspapers (The short points beside the colour) or the links telly >.< So, what did you get? Tell meee!! ^^ (Also, I`m going on a short hiatus from Blogger, around a week or so. Toodles!! <3 )

Liebster Award!!

~OHMIGOSH OHMIGOSH AAHHHH!!!! I`ve been nominated for the Liebster Award by two awesome bloggers!! They are Jake from Jake`s Writing Adventure and Sabrina from Insanity!! Thanks guys!! *Copies rules from Jake and pastes it here*

The Liebster award is where Bloggers nominate other bloggers they like with 200 followers or less. Any type of blog can be nominated. It's a way to get to know new bloggers and to network with them. Here's how it works:

1. List 11 facts about yourself.
2. Answer the 11 questions the blogger who nominated you left.
3. Ask 11 new questions for those who you nominate.
4. Choose 11 bloggers with less than 200 followers to nominate.
5. Go to each blogger's page and let them know about the award.
6. Thank the person who nominated you and link back to their blog.

~For the 11 facts about myself. Here goes :

1. I only began immersing myself in reading past the age of thirteen. Before 

    that, I was a gamer addict.  Before that, I was a television addict.

  

2. At age 12, I used to copy comics from the newspapers and draw tons of pokemon with my school buddy, CXZ(a.k.a. Squank.) I also created an imaginary land with my brother (Nar) drawn on paper(we used up more than 3 exercise books!). It was more or less computer game based, and we named the land 'Book Book'... Imagination shortage on naming, it seems... We could travel to different lands via the boat we drew. I recall even having a land with dragons in it (My dragon drawings looked like mutated lizards) dedicated to `Dragon Booster` cartoon. (The show was all the hype then, back at school.)

3. Squank left the school we were in together since age n9 to go to a private school when we were 15. That`s when I met Nix, then Rae. Storybooks(and manga) more or less is the glue that bonds us. It`s also what started our friendship. Black Butler caused me and Rae to become buddies while Artemis Fowl was a book the three of us read and exchanged ideas on. The two of them seeded the love for literature in me. Thanks, guys! That`s also when I joined DeviantArt(not a member anymore, no time.) and began writing short stories and doodling.

 4. I love the moon. I can stare at the midnight sky for hours, contemplating about life and it`s meaning. (So far, no proper answers.)

5. I`ve gotten stuck in improperly functioning lifts(elevators) many times before. There was once when me and my mum got stuck in a very packed lift, and two guys wanted to call the emergency button and lie to the workers outside (who were trying to free us) that there was a pregnant lady in the lift about to give birth. I was twelve then, I think. Fun times...

6. I`ll marry the person who buys me a balloon filled with helium! (Just kidding!)

7. This is getting difficult.... I speak very fast. My grandpa used to call me Gatling gun because of the speed at which I spoke at.

8. I currently only speak two languages fluently. (sort of.) They are English and Bahasa Melayu.

9. I have tons of online aliases. (One day I should spend some time listing them all out!)

10. I have a poodle named Roxyie and a dog which has similar futures to a fox named Lucy. 

11. I have a love hate relationship with spiders.

~I`ll have to answer two sets of 11 questions for part 2. Ok, first the questions asked by Jake :

1. What's your favorite thing to do in your free time?

Surf the net!! (Or stare at any screen around the house.)
 

2. Favorite desert?

Second time I`ve been asked this question today.(First was at German class by teacher, in German.) I`ll have to say practically anything sweet. I told my teacher it was Chocolate (Cause Chocolate is almost the same when pronounced in German...) but I also love the RM1.05 McDonalds ice-cream!

3. Give two or three adjectives that best describe you.

Bald (For now. Hair has started growing already! Now my head feels like those carpeted grass, where your leg sinks inside it then it is pushed back up.), hungry and sleepy. (Are these even adjectives?)
 

4. Do you have a role model? Who?

At the moment they are : J.R.R.Tolkien, George R.R. Martin, Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett, Paul Stewart, Chris Riddell, Eoin Colfer, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (Ok, I can`t do this anymore! I have too many to list and they date back to many manyyyy years ago!)

5. Favorite music genre?

Anything and everything with a catchy tune.

6. If you could have one superpower what would it be?

To fly. (Unless having Magic is considered a superpower. Cause then I`d pick Magic, hands down. No competition there. I mean, it`s MAGIC! You can do almost anything with magic!)

 
7. Do you like working alone or with others?

Depends on what I`m working on. I want to write a novel with someone, but nobody seems interested. I`m working on a novel of my own now, but one is a lonely number... And if it`s on school projects, definitely group work. Cause I usually space out when the teacher is giving instructions, then I`ll need help from my class mates...

 
8. Do you prefer starting tasks or finishing them?

Both! You can`t finish without starting, and it`s no real use to start without finishing!

9. If you were a (hopefully nice) dictator what would be the first thing you'd do?

I`d make chocolate and ice-cream free for everyone!!!! 

10. Cats or dogs?

Both! I really can`t choose! Both the creatures being so adorable and loving!

11. Why did you start your blog?

Because before I started blogging, I had used up four books as diaries. My mum was getting fed up with me wasting paper, so here I am on Blogger. Although I have a separate(and private!) blog for my diary entries now. Here`s to share my thoughts, writings, reviews, etc. But not to share what I do or eat everyday; that`s for my private blog ;) 

~Now for the questions asked by Sabrina :

1. Whats your name?

Woah! Too personal, don`t you think? But since you asked so politely, I`ll tell you my first name! It`s Resna. KEEP IT A SECRET!! I`m not telling you more cause who knows if you have a Death Note lying around somewhere? Must keep precautions, you know? Sorry!

2. how long have u been blogging?

Blogger says my first entry was on July 2012, but I started "seriously" blogging about a month or two back.

3. What do you like most about Blogging?

I get to write! I simply love writing and pressing buttons on the keyboard! Been pressing buttons ever since I had my first memory! Pressed buttons on toys, lifts, phones, etc. (Not to forget keyboards.)

 

4. Will you check out my Youtube channel please? (FallingRainStudio1)

Sure! By the way, Love Izaya in the Thrift Shop song! *Presses subscribe button* (FYI I`m Savera there.... Unless I was logged on as PokemonElf? *Sigh* I have too many accounts...)

5. If the world was covered in lava while zombies were chasing you , what would you do?

I don`t think I could do anything. The world`s covered in lava, I would have been cremated under it... *runs away crying*

6. What music you like?

 *Copies and pastes*
Anything and everything with a catchy tune.

7. are you INSANE? 

As said by Nora Ephron (and I quote) :

"Insane people are always sure that they are fine. It is only the sane people who are willing to admit that they are crazy." 

So, erm... I`m not sure how to answer this...

8. Summer or Winter?

I live in a tropical island, so Summer it is!!

 

9. Heaven or Hell?

Go to Heaven for the scenery, Hell for the company! ;)

10. did you like school?

I can`t say I hate it. 

11. Will you be my friend :)

 Heck yeah! I need more, anyways! *Hugs!*

~THE QUESTIONS FOR THOSE WHO I NOMINATE!!!! *Drum Role!* :

1. If you could have named yourself(not given name by parents), what name would you have chosen?

 2.Your dream job/career? 

3. What type of books do you like reading? (Like, romance or adventure? List a few!)

4. What do you think you were in your previous life?

5. Did you start your blog to write stories or keep track of the events in your life? In other words, why did you start blogging?

6. What is the question you find silliest that you have asked someone? Describe the reaction of the other party!

7. What would you do if you have only 24 hours left to live?

8. You are to be sent off to another livable world with other creatures in it. If you could take only one thing along, just one, what would it be?

9. Describe your imaginary friend/character. (I`m pretty sure everyone has one, right? If not, describe the personality of a person you would like to meet some day.)

10. Do you LOVE the moon? *Holds shotgun at your head* Choose your answer wisely...

11. (I`m gonna copy this question from Sabrina because I love it lots! Will you be my friend? *Puppy eyes looks up pleadingly at you*

1Q84 book one review

1Q84 is a book written by Haruki Murakami. What I write now is my personal view of the first book in the trilogy and it contains spoilers. 

~Let me just start by saying that the first of the three books is 442 pages long. Some books end in that many pages or less. This book, however, took this many pages to progress painfully slow... If I had bought just book one, I would not have bought the next book because the cliffhanger at the ending was... not a cliffhanger... Probably why the book is sold as a trilogy in one book...

~Character wise, the characters are pretty well developed (well, yeah. The author had 442 pages to develop them. I`m still not sure what the plot is though.) I`m also slightly confused as to why there were so many sexual scenes. I mean, why?? Couldn`t he and his girlfriend(which i`m pretty sure is still unnamed unless I missed reading her name somewhere.) be just be having tea for once? Meh. I`m still a kid, I wouldn`t get it.

 ~For now, I gather that the plot for Aomame`s part of the story is that she has to... erm... I`m not sure yet. As far as I know now, the dog Bun exploded. This reminded me of a conversation I had with Nix back when I was attending school. We talked about spontaneous human combustion. Yeah, people randomly going up in flames. 

~So as far as I gather, Aomame is this pro killer (kills people with an ice pick, LIKE A BOSS!) who`s also an exercise trainer. Her name means green peas. She kills evil men. She`s the one who somehow got into the new world with two moons. Then she named the new world 1Q84. I think she transferred worlds when she was climbing down the emergency stairway and reminiscing an event with an old friend(Tamaki) who she had an sexual encounter with. (See?? Chapter 3 and i`m having sexual stuff shoved in my face!) 

~In this new world, things have changed. There`s also this new religion/occult thing called Sakigake. Near the ending of the first book, we meet a new character introduced by the dowager (the old lady she works for by killing men who abuse their wives) called Tsubasa. (It means `wings` in English.) Tsubasa talks about the Little People. Before this, however, most of Aomame`s story was about her needing to get laid... And making a police officer partner(Ayumi) to help her in her conquest...

~Tengo is an interesting character. He teaches maths in a cram school three times a week and is working on becoming a published novelist. His story begins with him talking to a man named Komatsu. He wants a story called Air Chrysalis to be added into the finals. Komatsu says nah, lets let you rewrite it and make it awesome. Then we can make it more famous! And so Tengo agrees. (FYI, this is illegal during that period.)

~So Tengo meets up with Fuka-Eri, the original author of Air Chrysalis. (Rae spoiled this one for me by telling me she`s an alien! At least her spoiler peaked my interest in the book.) Fuka-Eri reminds me of a Mary Sue... Anyway, the main plot in Tengo`s part of the story was him rewriting the book and it becoming best seller. Also, his relationship with Fuka-Eri.Fuka-Eri speaks of the Little People, too. I wonder what they are...

~There`s a part in the book where it is mentioned that Tengo dislikes responsibility, which is why he wants an older girlfriend. (So she can take the lead, apparently.) He also dislikes being the leader of groups. And he`s super talented in many aspects of life. Yeah. I enjoy his conversations with his older girlfriend.

~My favourite character so far would be Tengo`s girlfriend. Probably because of the last chapter. I find her as a very cool, relaxed lady. Sure, she`s cheating on her husband, but there`s this sort of aura that radiates from her speech when I read about her. It`s like she`s contended with her life. (The part where she doesn`t want to change the past.) Yet she knows lots, like how she`s able to differentiate `lunatic` and `insane`. 

~This part of the book is my favourite! Cause now when I look at the moon, I can ask people if they know the difference between a lunatic and insane person! FYI, `Insane` is a person with probable mental problems. `Lunatic` is to have your sanity temporarily seized by the moon, (Luna, hence lunatic.) as said so in the book.

~I`m also bugged by the fact that the first book took place during April up to June, but there was not even one mention of the Sakura Season! Whenever I think of Japan, the first image that pops up in my mind is those pink flowered trees. I do recall reading how it rained very much there though... It rains everywhere in the world, not new news...

 ~I guess it`s not fair since i`m comparing this book to most adventure books I have read, which have very many events occur in very few chapters. In 1Q84 it`s like you`re following the life of Aomame and Tengo in whatever they do. When they eat, when they sleep, practically everything! The story takes time to progress, but I do enjoy the conversations the characters have. They often leave me pondering about their conversations, which is a thing I fancy about this book.

~My gosh! I feel like an idiot for reviewing the book this way, when it seems the rest of my friends (which are two, to be exact. I`m a lonely person.) liked the book(s) lots. Not to say I dislike the first book. No. I like it. (I read it, didn`t I?) It`s just that I usually read fast paced books. This book is a change for me, absorbing and entwining me slowly with the two antagonists. It brings up many thoughts and issues to contemplate on.

~Overall, I suggest that if you plan on reading this book, buy the trilogy, not book one alone.

~"Don`t let appearances fool you. There`s always only one reality." -Haruki Murakami, 1Q84.

Chapter 2 - Why are information brokers such donkeys?

 Dude set firecrackers to my cat!

<< Chap 1 
  
 Eva may be beautiful, but that in no way made her dumb. No, she was far from it. She just didn`t like showing it. Keep a low profile and people expect less of you and all that, you know? She liked the television. A lot. Showing she was smart would surely have gotten her into college, but that would have meant that her time with her loved one would be shortened, right? No good risking it. She had Kyo to leech from, after all.

When Kyo had entered his room only to come out screaming moments later, pointing at something inside the room accusingly, she had deduced it was Kia before giving it much thought. How? Well, why else would he be screaming "You bloody bastard, Kia! I`m gonna call the polic on your smug face! How the hay did you get in?!"

She sighed. Not gonna get any proper television watching with him screaming like a maniac. She got up, turned off the television and walked into Kyo`s room.

"Kia." she said, her voice cold.

My brother, the suicidal Spiderman

1/19/2013 - Saturday.

~I`m not sure if i`m supposed to be proud of my brother, or be scolding him and giving him advice...

~ Let me tell you a little about my brother. (Nicknamed Nar.) He`s fifteen, has dark brown(black?) hair and eyes, is dark skinned, taller but younger than me, and is to sit for a major exam this year. (PMR) He also has the blood of Spiderman/DareDevil flowing in his veins ._. 

~I`ll tell you why I say this. Tell me how many people you know is willing to climb the roofs of their house after midnight every night just to get to their computer? Cause I only know one. And he`s my brother.
