My Sister's Keeper (Part I)

Haven't finished reading the book though. You can read the summary here. I usually save the quotes that I like in my cellphone. And after losing it yesterday, I'll just post them ahead before I forget them.
Lesson 1: Always keep your things where you can actually see them.
Lesson 2: Always have a hard copy.

Hehe..enjoy! :)

Someday by Steve Earle

I heard this song from "Bridge to Terabithia". Listen to the lyrics. It's really good. :)

The Mirrormask (Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean)

I didn't know that Neil Gaiman wrote a script for the film "The Mirrormask". It was shown two years ago (2005) and I never really heard of the film until now. Actually, the book version only shows the storyboard and the script. Though I saw the trailer, I really hope I could find a copy of the movie..seeing a world created by Neil Gaiman would be really interesting if you could see it on the big screen.
