So a few days ago I bought a Sherlock Holmes book, The Sign of Four. The first ten pages depicted Mr Holmes taking his dose of cocaine and showing off his power of deduction. It's quite rare that I manage to read a book without wanting to doze off. Finished the book after two days? Well it was a short book anyway.
I once read that to make a story work, you need a good character 'cause you can follow a strong character through a bad plot but not a weak character through a good plot. And I think, besides all the other factors such as the train of thought that Sherlock Holmes have and all the other cool stuff in the book, that that is the reason why this book worked. Each character had a distinct and unique personality that contributes to the plot and why the mystery is solved. Planning to buy the rest of the books, since it's so awesome heheh.
ANYWAY there's only one week of holidays left before school starts and I basically studied very little during the holidays. Should study more. Study study!! A few months left before the big papers. Can't be distracted anymore, not by the internet not by anything. Must make it without regrets man.
My whole body's aching after yesterday's 4-hour long soccerfest during ISG. Ran a lot in the field whooosh! Now I can barely lift my foot to knee level, climbing the stairs hurted a lot. Dear Muscles, please stop aching.
AGH MY TRAIN OF THOUGHT IS TOTALLY ABSTRACT RIGHT NOW. GOODNIGHT AND GOODBYE, BLOG :D
