True niche

I don't think I'm far from my true niche. I just need an inspiration; an audience to feel reborn. 

Books

Well, I'm away again. Nothing new there. 

Going back to my book dilemma, I'm done with Animal Farm and now I'm reading Wally Lamb's I Know This Much is True. That book is almost 1000 pages so, I cannot count the days until I'm able to finish it! 

Nevertheless, given that Animal Farm was written in 1940s, it is really quite a revelation. It is almost certainly mimicking the state of Russia during Stalin leadership. I'm no historian, but I get the message from it. What is more interesting is the fact that some "animals" (or people in real life) can blindly follow a leader without arguing what is right or wrong. Can one forever be so naive? I can only wonder so much. I can already see that happening right now. I guess if I were to choose this book back when I was doing critical literature review in Grade 12, I would have been very analytical about it. 

Apart from that, I still have Che Guevara's The Motorcycle Diaries to continue reading as well. I read it halfway back in 2010 and now I need to finish it! Well, thesis was in the way of reading other materials. Hmmm, I know I have a quote from the book somewhere in this blog. Haha.  

Ok, back to work for me here. 

Cheers!

With and without

I never pushed away love, I just chose to wait.
'Cause when it finally came to me, it made me complete.
Without love, I am my own self.

With love, I am us.

No white flag

I was once content with simple things like t-shirt and jeans to the mall, but soon enough, they become clothing only to the market near my house.

I realise while we are all trying to grow up, there are things that we soon can afford to lose for ourselves.

Sometimes, it is a good thing. And sometimes, not.

Surrender not yourself. For what is lost is everything thus far.


p.s: I am debating which book to continue reading: 
i. I Know This Much is True by Wally Lamb
ii. Animal Farm by George Orwell
iii. Motorcycle Diaries by Che Guevara

p.s.s: why in the world would I start to read all three of them at the same time?
