picture credits to _j_u_l_y on deviantart.comi feel the need to get out of the country for a little holiday. maybe it's because i haven't been abroad in seven years, maybe it's because two of my friends are leaving on holidays (one's off to america, another's going to london). now i'm just itching to jump on a plane and head off to some distant country we only get to see on tv. and with my aunt's 40th just around the corner, we have good reason to! but obviously we can't get anywhere with just wishful thinking.
last night we went to my aunt's house and my dad made more kuey teow. this time it was much better than our last attempt! it doesn't taste amazing or unique, but it's an improvement, and it was delicious anyway. after that some brownies from secret recipe and a fun movie (the hangover) made the night perfect. i managed to get some scrapbooking done too, and it's starting to look really good!
i'll just be going now, since there's school to get ready for and some other things to do online before i get off the computer. but before i go, i just want to make a little request: would you recommend some books and magazines for me? i can't believe how many times i've read everything on my shelf because i don't know what else to buy. for books i'm into fantasy and philosophy and those mystical stories. i also like biographies about interesting artists and creative, free-spirited people (i really enjoyed edie sedgwick's biography). and i'm in love with those magazines that have interesting photography and interviews in them, which is why i'm in love with interview magazine.
and while i'm at it, here's some stuff for you!
- the inheritance cycle by christopher paolini (eragon, eldest, brisingr)
- the sookie stackhouse series by charlaine harris (also known as the southern vampire mysteries series of books, which true blood is based on)
- chocolat by joanne harris
- the witch of portobello by paulo coelho
- the chronicles of narnia by c.s. lewis
- and interview magazine... i'm obssessed with it.
