7:57 PM
was reading my bk 4 a large part of today. the bk tad i bought b4 sch started, bt hadnt a chance 2 touch it after tad. u noe i read more pges of it den i did over the past 4 mths. how sad can tad get, hahz. aniwae, saw this paragraph:
"We fall back into silence. I look around XO Cafe and notice that chatter mostly happen at tables where diners are young and hip. The older couples, the ones sporting wedding bands that wink with their silverware, eat without the pepper of conversation. Is it because they are so comfortable, they already know what the other is thinking? Or is it because after a certain point, there is simply nothing left to say?"
sounds damn sad rite. it's this couple in the story who realises that other den the children, they dunt realli haf anyth to tok abt. seems like this is the inevitable fate of most married couples, be it frm bks or seen in reality. issit possible not to tread this path? if u noe this is the end, then wad for begin it? wads the point of marriage then if u eventually will nt be able to carry a conversation with the one person u thot u wanted 2 spend the rest of ur life with...?
juz some random thots abt the stuff i read...
aniwae, it's acty a realli interesting bk. think a lot of pple wld haf heard of it b4. quite famous. jodi picoult's 'my sister's keeper'. kindda makes u think how far will u go 2 save a loved one. acty, hahz, i think parents shld read it. it kindda makes u realise how easy it is 2 neglect a child n take things 4 granted simply coz the problems of ur other child juz seems bigger n more impt. sad fact of life. think it's a very easy mistake tad parents commit. how u juz leave a kid 2 his/her own devices juz coz everyth is smooth sailing 4 him/her. can try reading it if u haf time.
oh yar, went 2 my aunt's place 2 collect my contact lenses in the afternoon today. all the way at bukit timah plaza. den after tad i decided 2 go down the the ntuc there 2 get sth. whoah, the ntuc there special one lor. gt this whole new section on australian foodstuffs. den gt so much cookies, all look so unique n so nice. hahz, took me alot of determination nt 2 buy them lor. cannt eat all these things liaoz lah. ate so much during exam period. feel fat. wait until i get back frm yunnan first. hahz. den gt this wholeshelf of arnott's cookies. nt juz tim tam's. n the tim tam's alone gt so many flavours lor!! hahz. i sound crazy. aniwae, so in the end, i juz bought one packet of chocolate sticks n left. ate it on my way 2 the busstop. it's freakin nice lah. nxt time i go there again, cfrm go buy again. hahz.
