25 January 2010 - It's been awhile since I woke up to reading. The sun was beaming on my eyes and I think that was God's way of telling me sleep-time was basically over. As I briefly mentioned in my last post, I am reading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. It's actually the first book of a book club I have started at my college and the first book of my 100 books that I must read before my 21st birthday. It that being said, I need to finish this book no later than tomorrow because I have a lot of books to read before February next year! I really hope this little project does something for me...I am determined to see the world differently every year...facebook, flickr, twitter, and even news networks such as CNN and MSNBC are not enough...come to think of it, but books...I somehow feel that there's a bit more of a mystery...something that I can look forward to, but it takes a little longer to get there.
So far, The Alchemist is a good read...I really enjoy the inner thoughts of the young shepherd because he reminds me so much of myself. It also makes we want to learn Spanish (which my boyfriend is in the process of helping me with) and visit Spain...to this day, it bothers me that backpacked Europe and did not visit Spain...but I did visit Greece and Italy among other places so I can't really complain.
Anyway, I must had to classes in about an hours time and there's much to do around here.
