End of Semester

I've actually packed all of my books up and shipped then hope in a tidy box. There are a couple outliers. The other night my friend Nicole and I watched "A Clockwork Orange" she really wanted to see it but didn't understand what was happening and found herself getting bored. It broke my heart a little.

I suggested she read the book before we watched and insisted after we had finished. I gave it to her then, I don't know if she got around to reading it. The book is quite small but an amazing read. Funny on subsequent reading I found the book more shocking than before. Guess my mind grew in a positive way... don't want to be an Alex. Though I do love his character immensely.

Otherwise my friend Jen just finished reading the 400+ pages that is 'Twilight' by Stephanie Meyer. I think I have gotten her hooked onto the series/ Here's to her reading the other two and buying the fourth when it has been written (haha)

Me? I've been on a desperate search for "Tenderness" by Robert Cormier. I finally saw the film adaptation of "I am the Cheese!". Ugh... I was sooo excited, what a waste of film!! They changed so may things and characters. And on top of all else the flow was terrible so I was bored to tears minus maybe two scenes. Here's to someone like Tim Burton getting bored and taking it up as a future project. The book deserves a better/darker interpretation.

Leaving college pretty much equals "Brain Death" I'll be picking up alot of new books to keep my mind working .
