Book-like meme

Lil did this first, Molly then got her hands on it. So I shall do my damage to it, because what's a meme without the added indignity of a haphazard blogger heeding it. Using the list below, bold all the titles that you’ve read. If you’ve read other titles by the same author, add them under that...

weekly dose of news! mmmm, tastes like pudding!

the creators of the third installment in 'the mummy' franchise are getting desperate: they have cast an australian actor in his early 20's to play the part of brendan fraser's son. they are hoping if the movie banks, they can start a spin off with the kid. no one has been chosen to replace rachel...

Book Meme

Rachel posted this a while ago, and I was kind of amused by my results, so I thought I'd post it. I'm not sure whether or not this is the one where you're meant to add a book of your own at the end, but some of the books on this list are so abysmal - Mitch Albom, for pete's sake? - that I thought it...

Reading Challenge

I have the tendency to not read when I'm at uni, and with good reasons too. But I do truly believe that reading improves my writing in general - which does also include uni. Hell, I became a non-ESL student in primary school because of my love of reading. Anyway, so I've been frequenting forums, in...

A Meme for the Literary

Several different blogs I read (in the school/education area) have this meme, which I challenge my readers to do, too. I've always considered myself "well read," but this showed me I'm not as well read as I thought. I guess I enjoy the detective novels too much! Here's what you do: Look at the list...

Top 100 Books

I read a lot, but sadly I guess I don't read enough of the classics. I was in Borders yesterday and realized I haven't read a lot of what high schools today consider "required reading." I have, however, read the Rock's autobiography, so I am well rounded in other ways. I at least did better than...

Books and Things

A friend recently posted asking for reading recommendations. In this time of all things baby, I could barely come up with two. For a girl with a degree in English that's shocking; I guess for a 9-months pregnant girl it's believeable. But interestingly enough I found the survey below, and I thought...

Another List of Books!

This is the Entertainment Weekly Top 100 books from 1983 to the present. Despite its source, I find it to be pretty interesting. Since I love books and most of you love books, I thought I'd share it. Red ones are ones I've read. 1. The Road , Cormac McCarthy (2006) 2. Harry Potter and the Goblet of...

Friday night is an imaginary flight.

For a while now I've notice that I've been acquiring the habit of not finishing the things I've started....with art (I have a ton of unfinished artworks somewhere in my hard drive, god knows when the hell I'll finish those), "organizing" tasks (my room kind of resembles a fancy dumpster with all my...
