So I don't really remember when the weekly blog update had been decided. Nevertheless, I'll start now.
So I'm watching Into the Wild [finally] now. and I'm reading the book next. I normally read books before the watching the movie, not as a principle, it simply happens that way. But my friend Phil said don't watch the movie first, you'll be disappointed with the movie after the book. This way, the movie will be great and the book will just be even better. I never considered this. Thanks Phil.
books.
I could speak forever about books, ones worth reading, ones which failed to live up to my expectations, ones I could barely slough through, ones which changed my life, ones which made my life.
having no television in our home growing up was sometimes difficult as a child in the public school system. it's a hard thing to be different as a child. but this difference was more than made up for with the hours spent outdoors with my brothers and sister, the thousands of stories i devoured all the day long.
it was worth it.
