My mixpod isn't functioning to my expectations.
I haven't blogged in a long while -- I've been ill.
I want to watch this movie when it comes out:

Because James Franco's in it, yes.

In a moment I'll finish reading the second chapter of Le Petit Nicolas and the last 20 pages of The Sound and the Fury (a book that is really about lovelessness, gosh, I hate Jason).

I might blog later!

Being sick has made me miss out on so much, it's horrid.

Goodness me, I haven't been ill for a year -- literally.

Last time I was sick (if I remember correctly) was March 23rd, 2010.
This is crazy!

I suppose it's good to get sick once a year, it boosts your immune system.

I'm not feeling so good but I'm taking the opportunity to read The Sound and the Fury and find out the definitions of the list of unfamiliar words I jotted down whilst reading Pride and Prejudice. I know, ages ago.

The Sound and the Fury is such a complex book to read. It makes my brain whirl.

If I feel better I'll do some writing tomorrow!

Read The Sound and the Fury is taking me a very long time.
It's quite difficult to comprehend.
One moment's he's Benjy, the next he's Benjamin, and it ends with him being Maury. What?

Also, I don't know why Quentin's talking about incest and why the Father gave him a pistol.

Finally, what does it mean when Benjy says 'he can't stop' but he isn't crying?

Anyhow, memorable quote:

“When Father gave it to me he said, Quentin, I give you the mausoleum of all hope and desire; it's rather excrutiatingly apt that you will use it to gain the reducto absurdum of all human experience which can fit your individual needs no better than it fitted his or his father's. I give it to you not that you may remember time, but that you might forget it now and then for a moment and not spend all your breath trying to conquer it. Because no battle is ever won he said. They are not even fought. The field only reveals to man his own folly and despair, and victory is an illusion of philosophers and fools.”

Thank you, my sentiments exactly.
