Life as I know it.

woah… finally finished this book… i have to say although I enjoyed the style of writing… it’s really quite fascinating… but having to work my way through all the viddied-ing and sloshing about, making sense of it when i’m only half awake on the way to work… it’s gave me some headaches at times… took me about 2 weeks to finish it… which is super long for me usually… but considering that i’m on internship now… which only gives me an hour or so a day to read.. well.. not too bad also…

it’s good also that this book really forced me to read word by word.. haha… otherwise i’ll be skimming along in my usual style.. hopefully the habit grows.. haha.

now I’m moving on to a new book.. recommended by my boss at work…. it’s a very thin book, by Junichiro Tanizaki called “In Praise of Shadows”. It basically examines japanese aesthetics and how shadows are celebrated and so forth… I think it’ll be a rewarding read… after this book i think i’ll move to non fiction for a while.. borrowed 2 books from office library.. but haven read yet.. heh.. but “the failure of modern architecture” is really a tough book to open and start reading… hm.. ganbatte to me then..=)

next post will be on work so far..=)
