My Reading Life So Far This Semester ,

It was okaaaay, I guess.
Havent read that much books.
Maybe it's because I can't find any good books, want to recommend some?! HAHAA =)
I think I'm interested in reading some other books that look interesting, ahha.
I still need to read Breaking Dawn! but i can't even find it ):
I needa buy it at TARGET!
Uhm, I didn't do my book talk because I didn't read any books.
I needa find a booook! The ones in this class don't look interesting. Well maybe they are, idkkk.
I can't judge a book by it's cover.
I don't even know if it was challenging because I didnt do it. Well, I guess it was kinda hard?
Because youre suppose to talk about it to 4 people around you in your group :O

Independence Booook (;




The book Naruto, made me think because ninjas arent real. It's actually kind of weird too because its fiction..?


I recommend this book to anime lovers who like to read manga because, they just like reading it. =)

This book is really actually good though. You have to read it the opposite way though.
It has alot of chapters, so yeeeeauhp. I only have 1 chapter. (:

Connections with the Alchemist

Uh, okaaaay.

I'mma type different now because April Phengdara was like 'YOU TYPE LIKE HOW YOU TYPE LIKE ON AIM' something something =( sheesh, okay


Connections with the Alchemist..

I think I connect with the Alchemist because I like traveling. Like, going to Vegas and stuff.
Or I just like going on roadtrips, haa.
Santiago changes too, and I think I'm beginning to change.
Not like, my period and stuffff, just change. I'm kinda starting to do things I've never done. LOL
Trying new things and stufff.

Okay, I'm gonna answer the questions. (:


1. How are you similar to the boy (Santiago)?


I don't actually think I'm similar to him. He's a guy, and I'm a girl.
But I think I'm trying to find out my Personal Legend too, like Santiago .. ?

2. How are you different from him?

I'm a girl? LOL He's not asian, I'm asiann. I'm not going to the pyramids?
ERRRR. I don't know.

3. Do you agree or disagree with his decisions/choices? Why?

Well, I think I agree with his decisions because he's trying to find out his Personal Legend so .. yeah.

4. Do you think that you would be able to make the same decision as the boy does to pursue his dream (personal legend)?

No, I'm not going to go through all of that just to find out my Personal Legend. Do I even have a personal legend?

5. How do you think really caring about someone might affect your decisions?

I don't really know.

Alchemist part 2



I think this picture connects to the Alchemist because Santiago is suppose to cross the desert to go to the Pyramids and find out his personal legend.

In part 2 of the Alchemist, Santiago is going through the desert with a guy who's trying to find the Alchemist. I think he already found the alchemist but he just doesnt know it. o-o
I think Santiago is going to be the Alchemist further in the book. I havent read the book since that part but I think i can remember some parts.
When Santiago was in that place where he met the guy who was finding the Alchemist, the guy knew about Thumin and the other stone. But he said it's not important because he said it was made out of rocks.

The Alchemist

I think Santiago really changed because he gone through alot of this thingy.
Like, traveling, meeting new people and other stuff..
He learns how to not trust and trust people.
He discovers alot about himself, like how he've grown alot while he was working for the crystal merchant..?
I think he was actually shy in the beginning of the book.
But after that he's like .. more talkative? idk lol.
I think Santiago WILL find his personal legend..
That's what every main character in the boook do right? D:
I think .. uh. They get what they want. :)
So he's probably going to find out his personal legend.
So i guess i'm done. :)

Dear Melvin Burgess,

I think 'Smack' is a really great book .. even though i hardly read it.
I skipped through some pages, but ! It's a great book ): Hm, I think everybody should read this book. Because it's about two teenagers running away in the beginning and yeah..
Some children run away because of parents and stuff.. But that's what Tar and Gemma did.
Run away from homeeeee. :o
Err, have you ever done drugs or something? haa, what inspired you to write this book?
I don't get why they use slang in the book. o-o
Like , Junkies, Sod? etcetc. Why can't they just say Druggies and yeah. :O
But there's a glossary in the back of the book so it's allll good. :D
Uhm, why are the people in the book so horny? LOL
LIKE TAR, he tries getting in Gemma's pants and stuff. D:
So I don't know why .. horomones? o__o
Hm, why was Tar & Gemma in a car in the beginning of the book?..
That's kinda weird. -__-
Uhh .. I didn't get the part where they saw each other again and Gemma started hugging Tar then he smiled? :o
Cause her breasts were on his chest..
Do guys even have chests? Ahhha :3 HMM.
I guesss that's it. :[
I don't have much to type. :D


Sincerly,
Lisa To
