suddenly have the urge to blog
actually have been having this urge for some while.. but just didn't find the time or effort to do it.. on mc today.. might as well? hurhur
been reading 1Q84 over the last weekend at msia.. after dropping it for like some time since i bought it.. only read that night after i bought it.. then it has been sitting in the kino plastic bag till i brought it to msia..
when reading it.. suddenly have this strong feeling of nostalgia.. kept thinking.. like when we were students.. how simple life was back then.. we only have to worry about homework.. n to a certain extent.. exams.. but the sad truth is.. time waits for noone.. as we wake up day after day.. even if nothing really happened.. our lives have advanced a day.. n slowly but surely.. u r leaving everything you thought was your world behind.. and in this world you are in now.. how r u fulfiling ur role in this world? is this the life you had imagined it would be??
rhetorical questions..
that's y.. they say u shldn't look back.. cos no matter how u crave how you desire.. those time past.. had passed.. you already missed the opportunity back then.. T.T when i look at those students now.. my cousins.. listened to my colleagues grousing about their kids.. it's like i'm an onlooker.. but no.. didn't i went through that before???? living as a student.. where life was so simple! there might be good times and bad times.. but eventually these times came to pass.. time just cant be turned back.. and i'm no longer the person i once was.. no matter how.. even if i could go back now.. i wouldn't be the same as me back then.. sure.. the fundamentals of the myself i believe in would retain.. but what is it that has changed? is it something called..
experience?
many thoughts in my mind.. but no answers..... well.. it wouldn't be called a life, without its share of mysteries? lol
ok.. back to the book.. hmmm.. how to describe it.. i really don't know.. even after reading like more than 2 thirds of it.. if u ask me what sort of book it is.. i won't be able to describe anyway.. i wouldn't called it a mystery, nor a thriller.. not quite a fantasy (not as what i would be inclined to think of it as).. love story? but.. the 2 main chars didn't quite meet till almost 900 pages of the book.. cant help but lost my patience and flipped to the almost ending part where they finally met.. =x
nt to say it is a book i definitely enjoyed alot.. the way it was written is not a style i identify with.. there's definitely no humor.. n it's descriptive almost to a fault.. but just have this strange attraction (?).. which makes u wanna quickly read from page to page.. cos u wanna find out how the story goes! just that.. i'm really way too impatient for it most of the time i skimmed through the passages to get through it.. hurhur..
enjoyed aomame's part more than tengo's too..
anyw.. think it's good i bought it to read.. shld get back to my old habit of reading.. even if it's bit by bit.. (:
