Movie and book rambles
I was forced into watching a chick flick today; Letters to Juliet.
Usually I am pretty prejudiced toward romance genres and I try to avoid it at all costs but the movie wasn't half bad.
The grandmother was just so sweet! ;__;
Makes me miss my own grandmother a bit since I see her every 2 or 3 years as she is in China.
Also, finished reading Beatrice and Virgil by Yann Martel.
I'm not quite sure what to think about it as I mourn for the $20 that was wasted on this.
The first 80~100 pages cannot be more DULL. It is basically a manual that explains book making, and I almost put the book down a couple of times. (And I've never gave up on a story like that.)
The remaining 100 pages were somewhat interesting, especially the conversations between Beatrice the donkey and Virgil the howler monkey.
However, the main character who is supposed to be a reflection of Martel himself is an egomaniac, and the taxidermist is a sociopath, both of them being very unlikeable.

Commissions etc
DA commissions.
Ah~ I went to korean barbecue today with some friends, and had meat for the first time in a couple weeks! *A* (My household does not cook too much meat.)
I can feel the iron and protein coursing through my veins! Fantabulous! 8'D
To put a damper on this happy mood, I purchased a copy of Yann Martel's new book, Beatrice and Virgil, expecting an epic and symbolic tale told on the multi-dimensional scale as reminiscent of Life of Pi, and boy was I ever wrong.
To be fair, I've only read half of the book so far, and there's always a chance that it may improve. Will probably finish reading it today, hoping for the best.
