Humor Me

Hubby's required to participate in their company's earthquack drill even he's wfh.  Captioned this photo that will surely make me smile everytime.

Tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow

In certain seasons,

We may be nourished by

The idea of the carrot

More than the carrot itself.

I am particularly glad and proud of myself for holding out and taking my time to read this book at a pleasurable phase even when I am itching to find out how it will all end.  I went into reading this book having recommended by my sister, gifted to and owned by my nephew devoid of any information about its storyline and unfamiliar with the author.  I have come across gamer MCs (Warcross, Ready Player One) I thoroughly enjoyed the game world development through their eyes.  This book, however, is a first for me to catch a glimpse of game designers and their game culture.

I am curious about the author's book "Elsewhere" hesitantly added to my long list of next reads.  It's interesting to note that there is not one song I could remember being mentioned.  I might have to google to confirm.  In doing so, I stumbled upon and got sidetracked by her essay 

Ah it makes sense that the author devours the english dictionary, hence the words she used that I felt were not forced and seemed to flow naturally.

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am particularly glad and proud of myself for holding out and taking my time to read this book at a pleasurable phase even when I am itching to find out how it will all end. I dived into reading this book having recommended by my sister, gifted to and owned by my nephew devoid of any information about its storyline and unfamiliar with the author. I have come across gamer MCs (Warcross, Ready Player One) and have thoroughly enjoyed the game world development through their eyes. This book, however, is a first for me to catch a glimpse of gamers as game designers and their game culture.

I am curious about the author's book "Elsewhere" hesitantly added to my long list of next reads. It's interesting to note that there is not one song I could remember being mentioned. I might have to google to confirm. In doing so, I stumbled upon and got sidetracked by her essay Words, words, words.

Ah it makes sense that the author devours the English dictionary, hence choice of words (which enriched my vocab) I felt were not forced and seemed to flow naturally.

Maybe, a 4.5 then if only to come across these words again.

Book Review: The Sandman: Endless Nights

The Sandman: Endless Nights by Neil Gaiman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Finally caught up with technology and was able to appreciate this graphic novel online. I relished every page and made to appreciate per frame and the whole page layout. One can read the volumes in any order but I do find it fitting to set the mood with Death and end with Destiny. Story wise, I am biased towards Dream and enjoyed Desire. I was overwhelmed with the details of Delirium and Despair, there's so much going on that will warrant countless reread.
Frame: p61 The Palace

Transition/Movement: p120 I'll let it go

Speech Bubbles: Dream's (B&W) and Delirium's (Colorful from Destruction's volume)
Portrait: p43 panel 3 Desire and that panel zoom in of the eyes

Art and Prose: p150 ".. along with the truth of the shapes of the clouds.. the secrets the wind whispers when there is no one there to listen."
