Scott Westerfeld and George Orwell (:

Okay peeps.

I just finished Scott Westerfeld's Uglies series. It was fantastic. C'est magnifique. Molto benè.

Seriously, they were the best books I've ever read. Makes me want to write a book.

I'd love to, and I've tried. But I get great ideas all the time and I can't incorporate them all into one book, so I give up. I can write poems, but just trying to write a short story is a challenge.

I could write a bunch of poems. Or I could write poetically and then translate it into prose.

Goddamn. How do cool peeps like Lili do it?!!

I've just started 1984. It's thinner but the pages are taller. Weird sized book.

Mehhhhhhhhhhhh.

1984 was fabulous!
I tried to write a ~book ror that NaNoWriMo. And by the end of the month, I was like, "Y'know what? Stuff it. I'll never get to 50,000 words."
And yeah.

I fail. EPIC fail.

In other news, did ya know that I've seen Twilight at the cinemas THREE times? I went to see it with mah cousins on Christmas Eve. ^_^
I will never get sick of Twilight. NEVER EVER.
Charlie is so good in the movie. I love the whole "pepper spray" thing.

Now, that's okay. A few years ago, I found out about them and IMMEDIATELY sent a VERY ANGRY email to them. But now I think about it, they're giving people who can't deal with their identity a way to find comfort. I'm sorta on the fence about all this, as it is quite a heady topic.
vumoo
