So today I continued reading The Age of Innocence. It's somewhat heavy and beginning to try my patience. I hope the ending will be good and make a point cause otherwise I will be pretty annoyed by it. Anyway today I realised that I don't have a clear reading plan for September (or October for that matter). I knew that American Gods and The Portrait of a Lady was there so after some thinking I decided that I will read in September, also, Brave New World and Divergent. Now I didn't want to start reading the Divergent before the entire trilogy was out but after checking out some not so stellar reviews I decided to just get it over with. Maybe I will have no desire to continue with the series, which is such a strange thing to desire of a book. After that, for October, I'll read, in no particular order, The Queen's Fool, Pillars of the Earth, Count Belisarus and The Female Quixote or the Adventures of Arabella. About the last one - once again I was depressed by the fact of how little 18th century books I have read so I picked out something interesting sounding from goodreads.com recommendations. So basically September will end my surprisingly short lived Fantasy bout and we will go back to historical-ish fiction on October. Apparently it's a new thing I will be doing despite the fact that my Read Books list might not reflect it. I guess that makes it 3 genres, Historical Fiction, Crime and Fantasy (Sci-Fi), with certain odd books as the mood takes me. I've also been thinking about re-reading The Lord of the Rings, and this time in English, but I'm not sure if that will materialize. So November will be NaNoWriMo month so I won't read anything then though last year I did finish in some 3 weeks so I might read 1 book, or not, we will see.
Played Minecraft. Basically I'm working on my Genesis map and it's coming along nicely - a giant forest with the occasional lone, out of place, high mountain and lakes of water and lava, together.
My eating habits are really weird ever since we've got back from Oma's house. The same amount of food that ate before now seems too much and sometimes I have difficulty eating anything at all. Today I didn't finish nearly half of my potatoes and then later got hungry again. I've been watching the X-files lately. Just season 4. I remember, back from the time that it was on TV (and when I still watched TV for TV, not just to pass the time before going to bed), the scariest moments (at least to me) was when Scully was alone in the morgue examining the body. I think they had that suspenseful quietness. Now I've not seen moments like so I don't know how they will affect me. Maybe that was just my younger self being stupid. Watched some more videos of awesome Minecraft buildings today. It seems that my reactions to them are always bipolar - first it's simple amazement at something gorgeous and then it's depression: why couldn't I make something like this, I'm so lazy and untalented. It feels like the days just pass by with nothing happening.
