i'm gonna be spending a hell lot of time at home these couple of weeks, so my best
friend will be the one and only,PC.here's looking at you,bud.i've got metallica's
'garage, inc' in the cd drive and the volume's cranked up.right now the track is 'die,
die,die my darling'.it's not a good title for a song, i know, but the song will rock your
socks off,dude.it's that good.
i just got back from the book store.not much books to buy,really.it's kinda strange.
when i was in kl,i frequented MPH almost daily, and i couldn't find any books
interesting enough to buy.here i am in alor star,with the shittiest selection of books
ever.i managed to buy a couple of books, though.'the worlds most fantastic freaks'
and 'the worlds greatest unsolved crimes'.not what you call mind-challenging books.
the problem is,i don't have the patience to go thru books with only a single storyline.
give me a harry potter book and i'll give you a menacing,what-the-fuck-were-you-thinking
look.yup.that's me.don't even get me started on the 'lord of the rings' trilogy.
i'm not saying that no book is good enough.it's just that how long do they keep the
readers engrossed,that's it.
shitty and all, i found some good books, and some books i used to read as a child.
i found 'who moved my cheese?', which,by far, is the most overrated metaphor book.
a close friend of mine actually read it (i won't tell who) and he said it was actually a
good book.basically it was about a group of mouse which had a piece of cheese,and
somehow,sometime later,somebody (or mouse) moved their cheese.i didn't remember
all other details.to me,any story about mouses or any rodents shouldn't be read by anyone
older than 10.the book's price was rm30.ha ha ha ha.should anybody bought or knew
someone who did bought the book,allow me to congratulate.did you know who moved
your cheese?you must be ranked lower than a rat.ha ha ha.no offense.
there was also a book titled 'i moved your cheese'.basically, it stood against the original
book.it was also priced at rm30.it's a funny bookstore, i tell ya.
basically, i just read what i find interesting.import cars,music,guitars,rock history,technology,
civilisations,trivial facts.i find magazine most suitable as it retains your attention, not too
long or short.in no way am i slacking all those people out there who paid good money
for,ya know,hardcover editions of great books or the latest paperback edition by stephen king,
jk rowling or shahnon ahmad.they write great lines,they really do.but i'm not interested.
i'm too choosy.i judge a book by its cover.speaking of books, one of my friends,HAZWAN is
currently an employee at MPH midvalley megamall.so if you're in the mood to buy a book,
please get in contact with him.he can get you 20 percent discount on all books.nice,huh?
i am now listening to cd 2 of 'garage inc'.good music,creative metal.hard to find nowadays.
in the august edition of guitarworld 2003, there is an article on the history of thrash metal.
it described the beginning of thrash in the early eighties and how now-famous bands came
about.slayer,metallica,megadeth,anthrax,testament,exodus, and many more.
that is good reading.i wish history in middle school was more like this.
then i could enjoy it.yup. i am now running out of ideas so i'll just give shout-outs:


to denise keller - stop calling me.
