Completed!

Hello dear blog.

Well seeing as I haven't blogged since (I THINK) the exams ended, I thought I'd pop in and type something that hardly anyone will read anyway :]

I'm happy because I've gotten back into my reading frenzy XD I finished around 2 books last week and this week I started reading Alice in Wonderland. I finished 'Going Postal' by Terry Pratchett, and while it was interesting and very original as a story, I wasnt OMG-blown-away by it, but I'll definitely be reading more of his work. The second book I read in around 2 days was 'The Alchemist' by Paulo Coelho, and I quite enjoyed that. I think Coelho is one of those writers whose books are like marmite - you either love it or hate it. Some people find his novels too deep and maybe overly-meaningful while I find them insightful and entertaining. Nothing beats the first book of his that I read, 'Veronika Decides to Die' - I *highly* recommend that book to anyone who likes reading but doesn't have the time to read mega-long stories about epic battles across lands. Also, it fits in a small bag. I particularly enjoyed how Coelho offered the reader a different perspective from which to view "insanity". The best way of explaining it is that he depicts and explains 'insanity' in such a way that it doesn't seem that insane. Insanity explained in Sane terms, maybe? Just read the damn thing and then you'll understand.

I can't wait to go to a quaint little bookshop in England. I'm definitely buying something to read from EEEENGERLAND! I'm extremely excited :] My Fuji is waiting for me in its little box at my grandmother's house. I'll buy some photography magazines from the airport to read on the plane. I'll be all hyped-up by the time I lay my hands on the camera (which is to be named ZsaZsa for dramatic effect.) It's very frustrating, not having my camera yet. I keep getting ideas for photoshoots and the only thing I can do is jot them down in a pocket notebook and maybe add a quick doodle of how things should go.
I'm lucky because I have friends who have some form of interest in photography. Oh, and my man is pretty good at it too, but he doesn't take enough photos! Anyway, having people around you who share an interest in your hobby really help add fuel to the creative fire. And it makes me feel less shy about things.

I start work tomorrow. I'm not telling you where I'm working though :p find me yourself. All I'm going to say is that I'm nervous!

Anywho, I have nothing else to say for now.

and since my mother is probably reading this XD (hardly anyone actually reads this blog)

AH LURV YOU MOMMA! XD

Peace out
