In my October 6, 2008 meme, I took a list of the "100 Best Books" and bolded the ones I had read, underlined the ones I had read and loved, and italicized the ones I had planned to read. I went through the list today-- nearly a year later, but not quite-- and recognized the following changes that would have to be made to the list now:
-I wrote that I "hated Romeo and Juliet," which is absolutely no longer true. I love Romeo and Juliet have memorized large parts of it, as a result of doing sets, costumes, props and various other jobs for the play this past June. Shakespeare is hard to get into, but you really have to see it performed to get it. I've since read A Midsummer Night's Dream and this year, we're going to do Julius Caesar for the end of the year.
-I have since read (and loved) Pride and Prejudice.
-I wrote that I "hated The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time." Again, absolutely not true. When I first read the book, I didn't really "get it"-- but having reread it, I've discovered that it's definitely one of my favourite books. Again, I've memorized certain parts. I adore the character of Christopher (who detests the colour yellow) and I only wish it could be new for me again.
-I have since read parts of The Catcher In The Rye (and am well aware of the plot/themes, having studied it in English class), Emma, Animal Farm and Atonement. I'm terrible about not finishing books. I love Atonement and want to finish it.

I re-joined Deviantart, because my old account was crap. I only have 3 pictures up at the new one, because I want this one to be reserved for non-crap. Come and check me out: http://tempera-mental.deviantart.com/.
It's going to be awesome. I have a lot of ideas.

![]() You're into LiveJournal, big time... just not as much as your friends. Still, you've LJ'ed from work - and made posts about what you had for dinner. Sicko! You may be safe from the clutches of LJ - or maybe you're just are an adept liar! |
I'm home! Camp was really...intense. It was my last year. Anyways, bigger post later. I have a lot of stuff to do.

1. Reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
2. List (and upload, if you feel like it) 5 songs that start with that letter.
3. Post them to your journal with these instructions.
She gave me the letter U. I only own 5 songs that start with that letter, so this will be pretty easy.
"U Want Me 2" by Sarah McLachlan is a really beautiful song, with a great piano riff.
"Unchained Melody" is my Sarah McLachlan cover of a song which I have never heard in its original version. I don't really like the cover.
"Undiscovered" is an Adam Pascal song from Model Prisoner. I haven't listened to it since January 11, 2009 and I can't remember how it goes for the life of me.
"Untitled Opening Number" is from [title of show], so you should already own it.
"Uphill Battle" is another Sarah McLachlan song from her old album Touch and I can't remember how it goes either. Sorry.

Please mind the ugliness for a little while.
I'm done!
