For not being here. Well, two. One was schoolwork (of which I have a lot). The second is this thing. I don’t know if you’ve heard of it. It’s called SWINE FLU and I had it for a week. A WEEK!!!!!!!!! I think I got it off one of my friends who apparently was made to go to school while she had it. Anyway, I’ve been bedridden and I probably won’t be on for another week at minimum ‘cos I’ve got numerous assignments to work on, so before I go back and scare all my classmates (before informing them that I’m no longer contagious), I’ll write (or type, if you want to get anal about it) here for a little bit.

Okay, I really like this song by Cassie Davis called Do It Again. Trying to get my hands on it, but I don’t think it’s come out yet. Finally bought Prospekt’s March which, for those who haven’t heard of it, is the mini follow-up album to Viva la Vida  by Coldplay. If you enjoyed Viva la Vida, you’ll enjoy this album. The annoying thing was I bought VLV before they released it together with PM. However, I eventually found PM on its own.

Also, there’s an Australian author called James Maloney who wrote The Book of Lies  and Master of the Books. Well, he’s just released a third called The Book from Baden Dark and I’d like to read that. Also, if you’re a teenage girl and have heard of an author called Isabelle Merlin (her two books being Three Wishes and Pop Princess), her third book Cupid’s Arrow is due to come out. Janet Evanovich’s Finger Lickin’ Fifteen had me in hysterics when I read it. I also read one that I hadn’t read for ages. It’s called The Wishlist and it’s by Eoin Colfer (of Artemis Fowl fame). I remember, I got PD into this (back when she had a habit of reading the books I borrowed when I wasn’t there without my permission before I’d finished them) and she ended up getting it for her birthday.

David Tennant’s going to be grey-haired for the St Trinian’s sequel. Iron Man 2 is set for May 6 next year. An Aussie has a role in one of the Twilight movies.
