Rants

Finally met up with Miss Navinder last Tuesday and Thursday. Been meaning to catch up with her for ages since i came back to jb but something always came up. Went with Atem on Tues and Xj on the next meeting. I think Miss Nav was one of the few teachers that really played a part in my 5 years in school. She was involved with us during debates, ISM and our Maxis Cyberlink competition and eventhough she worked us to the bone and tortured us to always do something better, she was also the one we used to bitch about all our problems at school to, whether it concerned our other teachers, our homework or just random issues.

School was still the same when we went back yet it felt different in the sense that we were the observers. I miss school sometimes but after going back i think i'm glad that it's over.

Also caught up with XJ. We get to meet each other like every 6 months or so(?) , so we spend a whole day updating each other about our lives and reminiscing about the past. It's a good way to keep track of each other.haha. Basically that's how it's been with most of my sec school friends. Don't have the luxury in seeing them everyday anymore.

I finished RANT by Chuck Palahniuk. It was a crazy ride reading it. I've read only one other book of his (SURVIVOR) so i kind of know that he writes about transgressional characters but i still feel awed with his book. At times i'm like wtf? like where is he going with the idea but the end result is fresh and what's more it's actually funny at times.

I'm reading NEXT now, a Michael Chrichton book. It's been a while since i last read anything by him so it makes for better reading. Once you start reading one book after another by the same author, you recognize their pattern and it becomes a bad book to you, when it reality it's fine. I made that same mistake when i went on a Sidney Sheldon reading spree when i was in Form 2-3 and a Jodi Picoult one later on. So that's why i decided to refrain myself from doing that with Michael Chricton after i read State of Fear and knew how it was going to end. But anyways, back to NEXT. It's about genetics, which i find to be such an attractive topic simply because it's something that is so revolutionary,controversial and ever-changing. And i want to know what he has to say about it. I'll talk more when i finish it.
