Thoughts after reading. (Spoiler alert from the excerpts) What had hurt her? Who had hurt her? How she had been hurt? Had she been hurt that deep? Would she ever be healed? Or this how she was healing? Those … Continue reading Sea of Strangers – Lang Leav
Lately, my willingness to read is decreasing significantly. I’ve made target reading at least 25 book this year and I am 6 books behind this far. I’ve bought plenty of books since early 2016, however few of them are left dusted. I brought it forth and back to my house-camp each time I got my field break, and until this moment, it’s all left untouched. So, I write this post, which is dedicated to my sleeping-reading-mood. I wish this could be a booster to my reading mood. You might have a clue that my knowledge of author and book is … Continue reading Reading Lately
This is my first attempt (even though I’ve been following the blog for few months) of Wishful Wednesday, a media to share any book that you loved having or reading. Here are my Wishful Wednesday for this week: A Little Princess Sara Crewe, an exceptionally intelligent and imaginative student at Miss Minchin’s Select Seminary for Young Ladies, is devastated when her adored, indulgent father dies. Now penniless and banished to a room in the attic, Sara is demeaned, abused, and forced to work as a servant. How this resourceful girl’s fortunes change again is at the center of A Little … Continue reading Wishful wednesday [1]
People who have been following my blog might notice that I still love reading the children’s books and collecting its quotes and excerpts, so today I’m going to share both which are inspired by my latest children’s book reading, The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry (I was left so far behind, wasn’t I?). Due to the laziness virus which is striking me (thank you for being existed, just to take the blame, laziness, kekekekeke), I’m not performing a detail review, but sharing my favourite excerpts. *Singing The Lazy Song-Bruno Mars* I saved all the excerpts as a self … Continue reading Excerpts from The Little Prince
I just read a book by Rando Kim, an infamous professor and prominent student’s mentor of Seoul National University. With original title; “Youth, It’s Painful” (Apeunikka Cheongchunida), Rando Kim tried to give his best support and advice for the young generation of South of Korea who has been pressured by the high expectation of family and society; to enter the best major of best university in order to be able to fit in Korea’s best company and institution as well. Even though this book not for my age, I enjoyed reading it and at some point, I stopped and nodded … Continue reading Time of Your Life – Rando Kim (Review)
Argh, it looks like I’ve picked up a few hard books in 2014 and it makes my reading challenge accomplishment is getting slow and this is bad for me since I’ve been bought so many books in 2014. Hamlet by William Shakespeare, besides the fact that the Prince of Denmark took revenge after his father death by his own uncle, and then this uncle married his mother, and how everyone ended up (which I see the background story similar to bible story when David sent Bathsheba’s husband to war because of his desire to marry her), I didn’t get the … Continue reading If I Could Find a Way to Make It Easier

Maybe this post is too late, but I think it’s better than never, and I really want to do this because I had been following the challenge at 2013, I have to close it nicely right now. Honestly I didn’t know how to wrap up the challenge, so I made a statistic of my reading for fun on my excel worksheet. It looked like I caught two birds with one stone; made something for post and as a disguise for wasting working hours (bad employee, here). When I finished the statistic I was confused myself because it’s too random, I … Continue reading BA Reading Challenge 2013 Review

Searching any idea for my blog, I google-ed October, and then I found that England celebrate first week of October as Children’s Book Week. Finally I came up with idea of writing about my favourite literature when I was child. I, myself love the idea since I pity my younger generation (especially my niece, nephew, and my younger cousins). They don’t enjoy reading any kinds of book (even comic) as I enjoyed them back then. They were really into gadgets. Once I gave books as my niece birthday’s gift, but the seal has not been disclosed since then. How sad … Continue reading My Childhood bookshelves
