a violent Alice in Wonderland.

heidiho, my Axes! i've got excellent news. the library is once again doubling our loan quota! we can borrow up to twelve books at one go now.

and i can make use of my younger brother's card to borrow more, since he hardly borrows books. i'm so happy! i borrowed five under my brother's name today. these are all the library books i have in my possession currently. aren't you excited!?

and that little notebook is my Reading List. a log of all the books i'd read.

have you realized that the phrase "more precious than gold" can have more than one meanings? first, it can mean the standard; that whatever noun comes before the phrase is much more valuable than gold.

secondly, it can mean whatever noun that comes before is treasured for its sentimental value more than for its cost. get what i mean? i like the second meaning more.

i just happened to pass by a bus stop ad with that phrase, that's why i'd thought of this. to make the phrase prettier, it should be "more pearl than gold", since i'd heard that pearl means precious.

so there you have it. a new phrase! "more pearl than gold". i don't know if this expression had been invented already, but even if it is, this i just thought of myself. *grins*

i'd bought a little bronze necklace today, with a key at the end of it. now nobody will ever be able to unlock my heart, since its key is with me.

and i bought this dear little notebook too! it's pink! i like pink. and there's a panda on it at that!

all that aside, i really want those penguin book-ends. and i want a denim skirt right now. badly. o well. will just make do with the other two skirts i have in my drawer already. (yes, i keep skirts in drawers while my hoodies, tees and skinnies get to be hung)

have i told you? i found one of my missing pairs of black socks! and there was a new pair on my desk two mornings ago as well. *grins*

i'm having a headache right now.

okay, i just used the waiting time for the uploading of the pictures to complete my current book. and holy firetruck it's amazing! if you've forgotten, this is the book i'd been reading.

'No one cares about "nearly". If "nearly" mattered, of the entire adult population there'd only be two nuns who weren't in prison,' Aunt Jackie dismissed with a wave of her hand.

i really liked that one.  and the lessons injected into this book was plenty, and meaningful. i really loved this book, give it a try! the flow of the story was amazing, but unfortunately i find the ending a little abrupt. it should have had an epilogue chapter, or a 16 years later thing at the end.

and yes, as Dante had said: "boys don't cry. but real men do."

onward to my next book; Alice in Wonderland! have you realized how many people claim they know the story despite having not read the book before?

i'd played on PS3 this game called Alice: Madness Returns, a violent version of Alice in Wonderland. it was amazing, with twists to all the existing characters in the story, like the Chesire Cat and the Mad Hatter.

hey now that i'd mentioned it, i wonder if the monsters i'd had to kill in the game are sadist versions of the actual characters? that'd be cool ! now i'm really excited to start reading the book.

hmm about the game. i love the fact that Alice's dress changes at every level.

 ahh. there we go. just a few of them. and look at this, it's so cool!

i kind of miss playing the game already. a certain MKI had forbidden me from playing during my N Levels period. and i stupidly listened to him. when i showed my stubborn ways occasionally, he would lose his temper with me and show some shit little girl attitude that puts me to shame.

o well. que sera sera! *grins*

one thing i dislike about the game is that some of the monsters are giant baby dolls. i hate the ones that have three dollheads on a big black body, the ones that sort of rolls around. the ones that have to be killed using the umbrella. i forgot their name.

as if their scary exterior ain't enough, i always get myself killed when battling against them. it's just so damn frustrating!

here you go. the trailer of the PS3 game.

hmmm, what else have we got to talk about tonight?

o yes! it is the last day of May. funny, i could have sworn it was just the first day of the month yesterday. fast, isn't it? then again, 16 still seems like a small number.

time sure is an odd thing, isn't it? it can be quick and slow whenever it wants to. irritatingly, its speed always opposes our desire. when we're bored to death, the seconds decide to tick past slowly. when we're having a ball of a time, it'd be time to go before we knew it.

i guess that's how the phrase "time flies when you're having fun" came about. interesting.

must girls really have all the confidence in the world to have someone fall in love with them? what if every woman in the world is confident? wouldn't they have higher expectation of their man or something? what if not all men are confident?

and what if it's not the way she is? shouldn't she just wait til she meets someone that accepts her even for the quiet withdrawn person she is?

i hope my white tadpole would be someone like me.

okay, i don't think i've anything more to share with you guys. but seriously, can you guys please do something to indicate your presence? i want to be friends with all of you.

did you know that clicking on my picture in the sidebar would bring you to my facebook page?

well then, i'm going to do some other typical Thursday night activities now. like... uh...

webcamwhoring?

am gonna stay awake i think. many things on my mind tonight. *sigh*
