July 7, 200916 yr No man is an island (Niemand ist eine Insel) of Johannes Mario Simmel Hope I get to finish it before I get back to classes, otherwise it will be really difficult to finish it. :/
July 9, 200916 yr Excerpt: Chapter One What The? What about a teakettle? What if the spout opened and closed when the steam came out, so it would become a mouth, and it could whistle pretty melodies, or do Shakespeare, or just crack up with me? I could invent a teakettle that reads in Dad's voice, so I could fall asleep, or maybe a set of kettles that sings the chorus of "Yellow Submarine," which is a song by the Beatles, who I love, because entomology is one of my raisons d'être, which is a French expression that I know. Another good thing is that I could train my anus to talk when I farted. If I wanted to be extremely hilarious, I'd train it to say, "Wasn't me!" every time I made an incredibly bad fart. And if I ever made an incredibly bad fart in the Hall of Mirrors, which is in Versailles, which is outside of Paris, which is in France, obviously, my anus would say, "Ce n'étais pas moi!" ...i like it....
July 12, 200916 yr ...and today i started the time traveller's wife by audrey niffenegger. <3 Reading Dan Eldon: The Art of Life atm, but I just got Brave New World.
July 12, 200916 yr just finished Gone Tomorrow by Lee Child. I love Jack Reacher :) and now re-reading The Friday night Knitting Club.
July 12, 200916 yr i recently finished off the old man and the sea by ernest hemingway and anthem by ayn rand for school. i didn't like the old man-it was just boring. anthem was much better, as it was more of an adeventure-romance novel.
July 12, 200916 yr i'm rereading harry potter and the half blood prince for the movie, but i have a mountain of summer reading to do as well, mostly involving british history, and ms. dalloway and brick lane by monica ali.
July 12, 200916 yr "slaughterhouse-five" by vonnegut. and i love it. it's really good and a must-read in my opinion. need to put "cat's cradle" and "breakfast of champions" on my "books-to-get"-list.
