Read Good Books to Get Into the "Good Books" of Others - Wow, I came up with that! Lol.

It has been pretty much a routine to sleep late nowadays. And I added another routine to this routine - to read a book or/and watch some random movie before I sleep late.

Well, I guess that is some sort of entertainment for 20-ish guys like me who are yes, pretty much not attracted to the hustle and bustle of the frivolous night life out there.

I can self-entertain I think. Haha.

Just recently, bought two non-fiction books from Kino. Yes I know. New books again. Ah...........

Ok, I have to clarify something again. I am definitely not a bookworm. But one thing for certain, I like to browse books at bookshops like Kino and Harris and just check out the latest books. Of course, interesting ones do serve to tempt me to buy!

And you would probably ask why I am not borrowing books from the library anymore. While I used to love visiting the library, borrowing books, etc, it all came to a stop from one particular incident. Once, when I was reading a book, I found something miniature and hideous on one of the pages of the book. Dry, brownish.............. You get the picture. Somebody had obviously picked his nose while reading!!! I mentioned "his" as I don't suppose that was a feminine act. (Or maybe I could be wrong?)

So ya, from that day onwards. I stopped borrowing books from the library.

Having said that, since NS days, I already cultivated this habit of buying books as I didn't like the idea of having to rush through reading books I like only to have it returned soon.

As some psychologists have pointed out, you could tell a person's character and personality by looking at the books on his bookshelves.

I welcome any of you who would like to look at my wonderful collection of novels, non-fiction, graphic novels, etc.

You could pretty much predict my inner world - but that's not gonna be easy. ;)

On another note, I have just started to use twitter again. Though I am seriously trying to make sense of what the hype is all about, it is pretty cool being able to "follow" your favourite singers/authors. Best still, have them reply you! Mr. Templesmith - artist of "30 Days of Night" replied to my message! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............................. ! I could laugh myself to sleep later. =D

Add me on twitter if you know how to tweet too. http://twitter.com/nightcharmer
