I read comic books and status updates more than books.

I used to be the bookworm,

I was probably the only kid in my middle school who knew about the Hitchiker’s Guide series. I remember having a conversation with that librarian, who on most days is mean, but she was nice to me realizing I was actually going in there and immersing myself in literature. It was in 7th or 8th grade when I fell in love with the works of Orson Scott Card, George Orwell, Faulkner, and Arthur Miller.

High School:

I’d finally meet people that actually read quality material,classical stuff and modern stuff too.

It was a great thing that me and my friends, our hangout was the bench in the same hallway as the library. Library had aircon and internet, but I would spend time when I wanted to be alone, diving into the works of writers and poets such as  John Steinbeck, Tolstoy, Hemingway, Emily Bronte, Dickinson, Petrarch, Frost, Joseph Heller, Poe, Koontz, Dante, Homer, Virgil, JOHN MILTON!, Salinger,

I used to read so much.

I need to read again.

Hrm, Milton.. should read that again soon.

Paradise Lost

Good place to start.

Hmm, I never finished The Prince by Machiavelli

and bleh, honestly I could never get into Victor Hugo’s stuff :S Les Miserables.. I just watched the movie and BS’d that book report!

I had to do a report for English 11 honors back in 2005, on The Hound of Baskerville (Sherlock Holmes),

that took me forever to digest.

BTW, Guy Richie, I love your work in Snatch, Rock N Rolla, and Lock/Stock…. but honestly, Sherlock Holmes didn’t do justice to your other works, or to Sir Arthur!
