The Book Series

Drawing a blank right now. The weird thing about it is that I've been wanting to write for the past couple of days, maybe even weeks. It's like I've been wanting to read a book/s but I'm just too lazy to get a book and start reading it. Does it even make sense? I don't know why I'm feeling like this.

So I'm going to try this, maybe it will turn out good.

I'd like to think that I've been appreciating the "arts" for the last couple of months. By arts, I mean music and movies mostly haha. Let's see... I've been to a couple of concerts, aside from the usual small gigs. I watched Cirque du Soleil, my first time to watch one of their shows and I had a great time. I think I've gone to the theater to watch enough movies, at least the more popular/anticipated ones.

I started to read A Game of Thrones a few weeks ago, but I just haven't found the time or energy to finish it yet considering I enjoyed reading the first half of the book. I also enjoyed watching the HBO series also. Is it because I'm reading the e-book/PDF? It's more difficult reading while sitting in front of the computer. I'd rather sit on my bed, holding the book, with my legs stretched and relaxed. I also like the classic feel of turning the page of a book and maybe even the smell of paper. Although the whole "save mother earth" and "save the trees" slogans might move me. I still got a couple of books (real books) at home which I haven't read yet. Brisingr, His Dark Materials trilogy (The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass), The Dark is Rising series (5 books), The Chronicles of Narnia (The Silver Chair, The Last Battle), Chicken Soup for the Dog Lovers' Soul, Chicken Soup for the Dog and Cat Lovers' Soul, Chicken Soup for the Pet Lovers' Soul. There might be a few more books in my shelf that I haven't even opened yet but these are the ones I remembered at the top of my head. Come to think of it, I bought these books mostly because of the movies made. There was Eragon, the first book in the Inheritance series (Brisingr). The Golden Compass, Narnia and The Dark is Rising were all made as movies. They are making a movie for The Hunger Games, etc.

I never let go of the kid in me. When I found out that Cirque du Soleil would have a show in our area, I decided to go ahead and buy a ticket. It took me about two weeks to decide because I had a lot of things to consider. Or let's just say I had a lot of concerts to consider. We'll go into that later. So anyway, I went to the show, sadly by myself, and had a great time. If I enjoyed it and was amazed by the exhibitions/stunts/acts or whatever is the right term to describe what they do, I wonder what the kids have felt when they were watching it. There were lots of shocked "oohs" and "ahs" from the crowd, and mostly from adults. (I watched on a Thursday night, 7:30-10 PM show) The lights, music, costumes were so vibrant and lively. I don't think I'm that good of a writer to give justice to what I've watched.
