It's time for one of these again, as I've moved along in my life as is normal.

Reading:

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley.
As it is famed for, the ideas in this book are intriguing and thought-provoking. There's a lot of sexual content, but mostly it's standoffish and conceptual, at least so far. Also, since I have read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, all I can think of when everyone in society hails Ford as the greatest entity ever is that they're all worshipping Ford Prefect, which is pretty weird and difficult to take seriously at all.

Watching:

Death Note
I've quit this three times and yet I'm coming back to it?! Well, it's peer pressure. Actually they didn't pressure me. My roomies were just interested, and I figured I'd give it another go because a) I'm older now and b) I was watching it alone before. It's not as frightening as I remembered, though it still has the confusing aspect of the main character being the villain. I think watching it properly requires that the viewer have solid moral footing and an ability to not take whatever someone says for granted, or they might get confused. When you get past the creepies, it's an intriguing detective thriller with a lot of logic and clever thinking.

Gravity Falls
To be honest, I'm not entirely sure what's up with this show. There's all this conspiracy theory and supernatural stuff in a kids cartoon, but at the same time it's pretty endearing and funny in its meta-humor style, and the animation is fantastic, especially the opening. (Don't believe me? Go look it up and watch it, and pay attention to how beautifully the light is depicted in every clip.) I don't know what the point is or where it's going, but I'm pretty sure I like it.

Writing:
A silly fanfiction, but it's going kind of slowly. It's my attempt to write a fluffy romance, and it's supposed to be lighthearted and stuff. I'm mostly writing it for Bethany and myself, since it involves our superhero characters, along with Thor and Loki. Ahem. XD

Playing:

Plants VS Zombies, on Bethany's computer.
I go a little crazy and panic over it. Bethany's offered to play a level in front of me and demonstrate how it ought to be done, since she has beaten the game five times, but I refuse. I just wanna be independent!!!!!!! And for the zombies to give me time to plant sunflowers before they force me to put down attacking plants.





So that's what I'm up to!
