Old George Has A Lesion

I started reading the last-in-the-row of my (because they're all mine) holiday-purchased (my sister did) books but I only got up to around the 20th page. It's not that it's boring. I'm the one who's bored. And restless. So I couldn't focus on George's story. And I guess I'm too intimidated with the price of the book. My sister paid it for me for like $26.

I didn't realize it would be so hard creating a short story. I was suddenly remembering Anne Rice staying in her room for months while she's writing a novel. I couldn't remember if it was her who has suicidal tendency. I tried to picture myself in her shoes. Impossible. It'll never gonna happen because I'll never be a novelist. I couldn't even finish a short story.

I checked out the NBS website and saw Vim Nadera's [H]istoryador[a]. Though I'm not sure whether the Minerva character in that novel is the same Minerva I've read last year, I feel the urge to buy it.

I searched for A Spot of Bother (the one I'm currently trying to read) and found out that it costs exactly P1049.

My sister loves me, anyway.
