Rainy Saturday

Because i'm recently swamped with stuff to do, it seems the only available time i have to write here is during weekends. Which is ironic really, as i have tons to write about. But i'm thankful i get to keep my own friday-is-no-OT-day policy and my weekends free since i joined this project considering it has a huge DELAYED status stamped on it. Maybe because i'm just working as support for the team thus the consideration.


Saturdays are for either bumming or malling the whole day. Today's a bum day although i did wake up early and went out to come along with my sister going to school. I went to bid a book on avalon and met up with the seller at the shopping center. I was able to start and finish Carrot's Smart vs. Pretty while i waited for my sister. I got to finish Crash on our way home. Hah! Two books in 2 hours. Talking about books here's my recently-read list and my to-read list (which is long since I usually buy a book or two whenever i'm at powerbooks and additional more than one can imagine since pb just had it's month long sale).


Recently-Read (Aug to today):
The Great Divorce - C.S. Lewis
The Screwtape Letters - C.S. Lewis
Vince's Life - Vince Teves
Girls in Pants - Ann Brashares
You Remind of Me - Dan Chaon
Smart vs. Pretty - Valerie Frankel
Crash - Nan McCarthy


To-Read (partial):
Bell Jar - Sylvia Plath
East of Eden - John Steinbeck
Monster - Frank Peretti
Love in the Time of Cholera - Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Miracles - C.S. Lewis
Problem of Pain - C.S. Lewis
Mere Christianity - C.S. Lewis
The Case for Christ - Lee Strobel
The Joke - Milan Kundera


I need a list of chick lits to buy and to borrow (calling kulit and carrots)just as a breather and the only title i have in mind now is Sophie Kinsella's Undomestic Goddess and other books by Jane Green.


So many books, so little time.
