This Aint Oprah's Book Club, It's Mine

So I have been doing a lot of social reading lately. Now I have always kept up on my gossip magazines, like US Weekly. However, lately I have been expanding my social reading to books/novels. Prior to this new leaf I was only reading law books and could not manage adding to my list of "real" books. But recently I have read several books, and below I am going to give you my synopses.

1. The DaVinci Code...This book was a fun read. I liked the fact that the chapters were short and that they alternated between several different aspects of the main story. This kept Me, the reader, intrigued. However, the book had a serious flaw; the overall writing style was poor. It was problematic that within each chapter there were problems differentiating between what was a thought, a quote, or just general background.

On a scale of 1-5, I give this book a 3.5.

2. The Alchemist...If you are a person who likes self help books, then this book is for you. I was disappointed with the ending because I felt that the book took me through hoops to get to a fact that I already knew. However, instead of this book I would recommend Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse. Siddhartha is a true classic, and a much more developed story of a young man trying to find himself and his true calling.

On a scale of 1-5, I give this book a 3.

3. Running With Scissor...Now this was a lighthearted enjoyable read. This book was about a young boys life growing up with his mother's psychiatrist and the psychiatrist's crazy ass family. This was a fun read.

On a scale of 1-5, I give this book a 4.

4. Small Island...As much as I want to finish this book, it is just not that interesting to me. The book is about Jamaicans who are transplanted in England after WWII. Trust me it seems interesting, but it is just not captivating to me.

This is unscaleable since I have not finished reading it, but I intend to.

Well I have just started reading Memoirs of a Geisha. I have heard for years that this book is supposed to be really good. Furthermore, it is being made into a movie and I want to read it before that comes out.

CHANGES, Part I

Life is a funny thing. From year to year I feel like I am a different person. Now I am not saying that my core personality changes. But my views on topics, such as life, love, sex, relationships, family, career, etc...can change drastically from year to year.

Over the years I have become a more open and free person. Had someone told me 5 years ago that certain beliefs and feelings that I hold today about myself and others would be the way they are today, I would not have believed them. I would have been the first person to say "YOU ARE CRAZY". But such is life, and that's what makes it beautiful and interesting.

Now, I am being purposefully vague in this blog. Those who really know me will be able to read between the lines and know exactly what changes I am referring to. For all others, I am sorry. And for one person in particular...THANX (He knows who he is).

All I Want is a Job!!!

Ok. So for the past month I have been looking for a job, and it sucks. This is the most humbling and frustrating experience ever. Every day I send out resumes and everyday I hear nothing in return. I mean it is not like I am under-qualified, and my resume is just as good as the next person's. So why is this taking so long? If this was a lesson that I was suppose to learn...Well I have learned it. Anyways, back to the drawing board, hopefully something will come along soon.

Sorry these messages are so short, but all I have on my mind right now is my job search.
