self-involvement;please ignore

2008-03-28 at 6:59 p.m.

i am actually determined to hate jodi piccoult's writing. i tried, maybe i was in a bad mood, and couldn't stand the stuffiness of the writing. to quote yuzhen, the "self-involved" characters were too much for me. made me forget all my goals and what i loved about life. drastic :P but i admit, momo's right. i should give mercy a chance lol. (she says the beginning of the book is boring so) cause i have a feeling her books are the sort that have merit for their plot development. if monique can wax lyrical about her stories, even though i think what i like is very different from her, it's sth i should look up. i know i need to persevere through a novel to be able to judge properly. after As, one day. haha. when i have the time.

but when i think it's just me hatin' and i'm a poor reader, i've found a coupla books that excite me just with their blurbs. so that's heartening! i'm not lost. got immortality by milan kundera and finding myself by toby litt (or victoria about. i haven't figured out who's the REAL complete author of the semi documentary book) at 12 bucks! YU ZHEN'S throw aways HAHA. she was selling her stuff for charity in school. incredible huh? i'm like three pages into both books and i'm pretty hooked already (: i'm so excited about reading them! but like i kinda had to stop myself cause my time should be spent in school stuff..... screw A levels i really want to go to art school alreadyyyyyyy

so these are the kind of books i'd like to read. i'm proud of myself (: i love good ideas.

school's been sucking though. GP is screwed. so screwed. i don't know what's wrong with me. so bad so wrong. how do i grapple with the possibility of me being unsalvagable. do my academic capabilities reflect my true abilities as a person? i feel like hellfire that i'm damned in this sense. my very unique brand of logic /RACHEL'S LOGIC/ tells me that if i can't get my gp or lit skills down in jc, i will never make it writing on fine art. how can i expect to do well studying art when i'm no prodigious writer reader appreciator like kellyn wee (hello kellyn! if you happen to google yourself one fine day and find this post.) anyway, someone please tell me that i am wrong and that i can. or rather, that i AM made to do what i want to.

i'm eating some portobello mushroom with cream cheese and parmesan my mum made. like the ones they sell at soup spoon (mmmm soup spoon...) it's GOOD.

watch-movies.net(movies) sidereel.com(tv) (thanks to the someone who, like me, doesn't know who he's reaching out to but shares finds with the world using msn nicknames and blog posts. i don't know who i'm helping, i may very much be useless, but thank God for people like this.)
