I do deffinatley get pleasure from reading 100 Years, it's wonderbugs i had a look at that warp book, i'm quite dissapointed, but i guess the non-obsessive fan (i.e. not me or anyone on this site) would be interested in it. |

i'm reading a book on the flow-experience by Csikszentmihalyi. flow basicly is the state people are in when they're having optimal experiences (which in itself is related to happiness). it's pretty interesting. |

Leaning out over The dreadful precipice One contemptuous tree I have to turn in an analysis on this poem by Auden this week. I like it, it's very good. <-- my analysis :) I just finished 'Raise high the roofbeam, carpenters / Seymour: An introduction' by J.D Salinger. Just started on 'Franny and Zooey'. Best read with a dictionary nearby. The glass family are a fascinating bunch. |

I'm currently reading The Witch-Craze of the 16th and 17th centuries by H. Trevor-Roper for my A-level history coursework. It's really interesting - and I rarely dig history. |

only in my worst nightmares. chasing beautiful women in my wheelchair, trying to attract them with my profound knowledge of the cosmos. which in the beginning is pretty useless, but then kanye west enters the stage and starts to sing jesus walks. that's when miracles start to happen and things turn into a big orgy. kanye only gets to sing, btw. |

goDel, that nod towards that book on "the flow", is priceless man!! i've been thinkin about it a lot lately cos thats the only reason i make music, to get into that mode, and "random thoughts" always interrupt it, or even an emotional reaction might upset it, and return me back, and cut off the track. thats priceless man, i'll look this up, the info i've found thus far is all good. thanks so much man ill be looking up more related info on Csikszentmihalyi, .. so forums can be useful too :D |
