Sex God - I

I am so excited after reading Velvet Elvis and continue to read the second book by Rob Bell:



It's not a rated "R" book. But it's again touching and give me some thoughts.

p. 027-028

... How you treat the creation reflects how you feel about the creator.

now I understand why our parents treasure our gifts preciously.
coz they value US, more than the GIFTS.

Quote from "For One More Day" 2

p.193-194

"What causes an echo?" she once quizzed me.
The persistence of sound after the source has stopped.
"When can you hear an echo?"
When it's quiet and other sounds are absorbed.
When it's quiet, I can hear my mother's echo still.

if it's not quiet, we can't hear anything...
try not to keep yourself busy. sit down and listen. sit down and watch. you'll see a lot out there.

For One More Day


I've just finished this book during the wait of my flight back home. I bought it last year and I am so glad that I can finally find time to read it (instead of chemistry references!).

I enjoy it very much and I just keep reading and couldn't stop!
It's a good reminder of our mother's especially mother's day is approaching.

recent finished reading


the third non-chemistry book i read in the year: The curious incident of the dog in the nighttime.
it's fun in the beginning... w/ lots of math and logical stuff in it.
sometimes we r as picky and as stubborn as the main character.
sometimes, i would think i am as strange as the main character while not understanding what the fxxxing world is going on around me.
that non-stop writing style w/ lots of swearing and combining both britisth and american language in it kinda like the flow of my thinking and in fact makes it easier for me to understand! it's like oral english... i just don't like the ending... but well... it may not be a bad ending for a broken family described in this book.
recommended... if u want another 200 pages of fun reading n if u have a rational mind, u'll like it.

@ toronto

was stuck at the airport for 2.5 hrs bcoz of the thunderstorm... read like 50 pages of tuesday w/ morrie.
wanna quote from this book of what morrie said:

there are a few rules i know to be true abt love and marriage:
if you don't respect the other person, you're gonna have a lot of trouble.
If you don't know how to compromise, you're gonna have a lot of trouble.
If you can't talk openly about what goes on between you, you're gonna have a lot of trouble.
And if you don't have a common set of values in life, you're gonna have a lot of trouble.
Your values must be alike.

the biggest one of those values: your belief in the importance of your marriage.

guess.. i m a trouble maker.... or.. better say, i've been troubled too.
