To-Read:
BOOKS:
~Wicked (a twist on The Wizard of Oz!)
~Silk
~Death Note the manga XD (I got hooked from watching the two live movies)
~Pendragon (one of my readers, after reading my fanfic (Live and Die), recommended me to read it because, apparently, there are quite a few similarities. Haha I feel honored. XD)
~Planet Ladder (^ same reason lol)
~Any new books by J.K. Rowling and Eoin Colfer (I know.... their books are for middle and high schoolers, and i'm in college, but they're SUCH good writers!!)
~Any new books by Sharon Shinn (yes it's very religiously controversial, and I'm Christian, but her writing is GOOD. Everyone should read the Archangel series. Warning: Don't take the whole religious aspect too seriously.)
~Benjamin Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanac (heh yes it's a historical pamphlet, but it sounds so interesting. I'd like to see how society and its mentalities were different compared to today.)
FANFIX:
i've either seen a really interesting siggy advertising them or have read the prologue and just never had the time to continue but i find it good
~suicide note (siggy and prologue)
~that romeo and juliet one (the siggy was SO enticing, with the message: "What if Romeo lived?" The writer must be very creative. ^^)
~High School (i heard from several people that it's like the epic fanfic of SM. gotta read it someday!!)
~the jaeho one where jae's a vampire (again, sounds really interesting!! and dude, jae as a vampire? sexyyyyyyyy)

my biology text book, perhaps?
maybe a little bit of my economics, too.
reading my geometry one won't hurt me, either. actually, in fact, i think i'd be smarter if i took some time reading those!
other than those up there, i think i pretty much read all the ones i've heard of and wanted to read. there's a few poems here and there that i want to look up at, but not many. =)

抱著過去不放手不表示就是永遠的擁有
最終就算你想忘記它, 亦先要有勇氣去面對它
唯有認識死亡, 才懂得怎樣去生存
