ennui kills pandas. give a spark.

School has been "okay. yup. sure. really? hmm... lalalala. nice. awww." lately. Translation: I've been feeling a bit impassive and BORED. My primary pic in Friendster has a title "ennui kills pandas. give a spark." for obvious reasons.

Let me say type it again. I'm bored. And the ironic thing is, I'm doing nothing to keep myself busy. It's a scary thing now that I think about it.

Another ramble for me: I need cash. Well, maybe not really need but umm... require cash in order to purchase some novels and thus saving me from monotonous days and senseless... stuff. Breaking Dawn would be out by August 2 and I already reserved a copy. There are also quotes on Stephenie Meyer's website, updated daily. I CAN wait. Because I think Twilight lost it's spark when the official movie cast came out. It's disturbing to think of THE EDWARD whenever I re-read the book. [[which is still hostaged by my cousin, not that I care... much.]]

Then on October comes out the third book in the Blue Bloods series "Revelations." This I CANNOT wait for.

Others on my list? Let's see The 2 remaining books from The Dark Magician Trilogy, The Opal Deception - 4th Artemis Fowl novel, Seeing Redd [[I think it's out...]] and Austenland, a novel by Shannon Hale. It's bit of a Pride and Prejudice-thingy [[duh. Jane AUSTEN]] and I was a bit reluctant at first since startlingly and disturbingly my hand didn't get numb when I watched the movie [[starting Keira Knightly]]. Translation: There's no KILIG factor. Or chu chu. And another thing, it costs 580 pesos. Poor wallet.

68% DoMO Patcher. Guess what? I'm trying out another RPG [[I've lost count to how many I tried to play]] called Dream of Mirror Online. Sounds cool. But then again, so did the others.

I love witty quotes. And funny meteorologists on YouTube.

Random.

Extremely Ecstatic

iLabLabBooKs. =) I know I'm a bookworm and so?
Chuchi and I went to the [kinda] main branch of National Bookstore in Cubao. And gosh, there were 4 floors of books! Our eyes hurt from browsing all the bargain books and our hands were covered with a thin LAYER of dust. But it was worth it. =) Coming a long way there... riding the MRT [When was the last time I rode there before yesterday?]... because I managed to buy 3 books included in my booklist.
Yes, I made a list... a long list... of books I wanted to buy.

Yes. I am so materialistic. But hey, this is better than spending my money on clothes or shoes. I least I get to learn something... ahahaha. Nerd. I know... It's very disturbing.
