0143: "The End" of a Series
Oct. 14th, 2006 09:52 amExcerpt from The Beatrice Letters:
"I will love you as a shingle loves falling off a house on a windy day and striking a grumpy person across the chin, and as an oven loves malfunctioning in the middle of roasting a turkey."
And from Book 13:
"'I told you,' Count Olaf said weakly, 'I told you I'd do that one last time.'"
Talk about love, Series of Unfortunate Events style. Witty and weird and doomed and gaaaah.
I finally finished Book 13.
I don't know what to say.
I've been following the series for a long time, but I didn't expect it to end this way. The whole book seemed different from the rest. It was an anticlimax to the drama of Book 12. It was just plain weird.
I'm not sad. I'm not sad. I'm not sad.
I'm confused, but I don't know what exactly makes me confused. Many things were revealed. Others were left unexplained. The ending. Shoot.
13 books. One Unauthorized Biography. One compilation of letters.
Donk.
I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll just say this:
There are sheep in Book 13. >_<

Thank you Trebor-san for yesterday, especially letting me taste my namesake cake :)
It was really fun, the food was good, and we got to talk a lot :) :)
Enjoy Book 13 :) I hope it makes up for the horror of Math tests on your actual birthday :)

Ok, I want to do that survey that became popular around a week back. Jar-san, I sense you started this one ;)
( Meme/Survey time )
***
Hmmm. Apparently there is a nudist camp named PSHS. >_<
You learn something new everyday. O.o

Since I haven't posted anything related to Pokemon in a while, here's a picture of the pre-evolution of Chansey, Pinpuku (don't know if they'll change the name for Diamond/Pearl's US release).

Thank you Wikipedia.
It is not holding an egg. That is a stone. >_< It's just trying to mimic Chansey who has an egg in its pouch.
Cute, though. :)
***
Yay, exempted ako sa NatSci 2 exam! :) :) :)
***
November 13 = start of classes. Hmmm.
Never mind that, let's finish all the requirements for this semester first =P
***
I want to be happy. I'm trying to be happy.
But I'd rather be miserable if you're happy.
