What I've Been Up To Lately

Currently Listening To: Adam Lambert - Strut


I've been listening to relatively unknown bands and singers lately.

Local Natives








Fleet Foxes





A.A. Bondy





Our very own Yuna.



Do support her by buying her new album, Decorate when it's available.

Lissie's amazing cover of Kid Cudi's Pursuit of Happiness.

I just bought the soft cover of Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol last week, finished reading it within 2 days. Can't say I'm impressed with the book, cos honestly it's extremely disappointing and rather boring. Compared to his other books, The Lost Symbol reads like it's his first ever serious work or something. The problem is...it's not his first book. Nor is he an amateur writer. Heck, he has sold millions of books by now so he should be a lot better than the crap in The Lost Symbol. Terribly disappointing.

Bought Audrey Niffeneger's Her Fearful Symmetry as well. She's the author of The Time Traveller's Wife, which I've never read before, even though it's an international bestseller, with a movie and all. Just bought the book cos there's 20% off if I were to buy two books instead of one.

And they've just reprinted Agatha Christie's books! There's a 3 for the price of 2 offer in MPH on all her books, so I'm really tempted to buy. I don't know if I should though, I mean, I just bought those two other books last week and also new bags and shoes and clothes so...gah. Spending way too much money lately.

Agatha Christie! Seriously?!

Now I'll have to search for a MPH in Kelantan. XD

I've to agree, The Lost Symbol is a bore. Bought the book for RM99 (If you still remember)when it first came out. I had such strong faith in his books but in the end... sigh.
