20 minutes

This is a stressful time for me. In only 20 more minutes, it'll be the start of a new term. Oh gosh! I've not done the Rams for the sea shore life program. I'm so going to get it. I guess I have to be in school tomorrow, very very early.
Sigh. Made me wish I'd quit long long ago. There should be a law against these kind of stress. Sigh.
Too much sighing won't help. And my mac book pro is not helping either. Things are getting slow. I mean, while I was doing things, things hang. Damn it.
Anyway, I've been reading. Specifically, I've completed reading of the last chapter of the Harry Potter books and I'm also done with Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. Got that for $15.50 at Punggol Plaza. So while I wait for the time to past and my table is in a mess, I might as well write what I thought about it.
It's simply fabulous! Seriously, for light reading and entertainment, its fabulous. Its supposedly a thriller and going by the other book, the DaVinci code, it has a religous angle to it. How fabulous? Hmm, the only movie I can think of that runs parallel to it would be Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Those of you who had seen it, would remember that actions starts from the word go. The whole books spans 24 hours of a character life. I had finished reading the bok in two days, practically ignoring some of my bodily needs, much to the chagrin of my wife. But I'm much cleaner now.
But this is not the book that should be taken to a book club, literature sects or anything of that sorts. This is a book, you read, because you can. Not the type of books you read because you have too, not the kind of books you read to impress anybody, it is a book to read when you have the time to read but if you do not have the time to read, jolly well find time to read this book.

To provide an inkling of what the book's plot is, try searching for catholic church, vatican, illuminati, and CERN.

O.k it's almost time. See you soon.
