Stalemate

Very tempted to just skip to the last pages and find out the ending.
But I'm quite determined not to.... I can make a good guess how the story will end already and I don't like my guess.

Ciaos.. Till I finish my book.

New Moon

I've finished reading New Moon.

I urge you to stop here if you don't want spoilers.


Well the book is good. But it's abit draggy.
Probably because of the post-break-up Bella.
As if vampires weren't enough, now there were werewolves too? And her best friend somemore?
Okay, should have guessed that since vampires existed, the other creatures would as well.
And Victoria isn't dead yet, so she's gonna come back again? Such a pest.
Edward and Bella can speak of forever like it's so easy..

Twilight

Okay, Stephenie Meyer is an amazing author. I've finished reading Twilight and it's been a long time since I'm so hooked onto a book, and I can't wait to get my hands on New Moon.
If this book hadn't involved vampires, I probably won't read it. Cos if it's just talking about I lub you and you lub me, I rather go sleep sia. And the few purely romance novels that I've read (which I eventually gave up halfway) have pretty boring lines.
But for Twilight, I liked the witty conversations between Edward and Bella.
And anyone noticed that the author liked to use the word "hyper"? Things like 'hyperventilating', 'hyperaware' kept reappearing.
It's like listening to a lecturer repeating a particular word out of habit

*Some spoilers ahead*

I had thought Bella would be turned into a vampire towards the end. But she didn't; wouldn't it be good if she did? So that the two of them can be together forever, and Edward won't be craving after her blood if she was a vampire, and they both won't age.
And I have a hunch that they will break up. Cos I think Alice saw that coming and told Edward about it, which is probably why he always hesitates or don't answer when Bella speaks of forever.
Too bad the story was related from Bella's viewpoint; and we won't know how the Cullens killed James, I want to know leh.. Haha.

I've finished reading it!
Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows.
Did my AA and WISP half-heartedly and had them submitted early just so I could have time to read it.
And today I had the whole day to myself! =)
Some parts of the story were rather confusing if not complicated.
And there wasn't much of an excitement compared to the other books.
Anyway I won't be giving away spoilers here.
Just felt happy that I've finished reading it. YYY
It's like having fulfilled the wish of the child within me,
considering the first time I read Harry Potter was when I was in P5.
So it's been like 9 yrears?
I have the whole collection, and everytime I reread them, it's a different feeling altogether, maybe viewing from a different perspective.
And this time round it's the final book already.
On one hand I'm happy that I can finally know how's the ending supposed to be like;
even though I've pictured numerous different endings in my mind.
On the other I'm sad that there won't be anymore magical musings to look forward to.
Those who have only watched the movies all along probably won't understand.
Won't understand the feeling of being so engrossed in the book and almost becoming part of the story.
Haha, what am I talking about?
Am I even making sense?
Kay la, shall stop here.

donuts!

Went to the Singapore Art Museum.
Hmm the collections there are quite pathetic which gave us so little choices for our Appreciating Artwork (AA) assignment.

Anyway we didn't stay long at SAM.
And we made our way to Donut Factory!
Well, I'm not actually a great fan of donuts but since everyone wanted to buy..

Walked around while others were queueing and I saw MPH selling Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows at $48.05.
Was itching to buy it, although I know it will definitely distract me from my assignments.
While I was choosing one with the most perfect cover (as I've said before, I'm a sucker for appearance), the staff there begin to bring out new stock, fresh from the parcel and so I took one from her =)




Those who wish to borrow it, please take note of the following
1. You'll have to book in advance.
2. You have to wait till I've finished reading it.
3. You'll have to take REALLY GOOD CARE of it, or I'll kill you.

Sounds like you'll be better off buying your own eh? Haha.
And I'm not kidding, I hate people who destroy my books.
Even a fold, a teeny weeny tear, or visible scratches are unforgivable.
This is especially so for new books.
Only I am allowed to destroy my books, no one else.


Smiley for the rest of the day.
