Something about...

I can't really post anything special tonight. I wanted to post some photos, continue posting my February US Trip and maybe also about my recent China trip (I'm considering this blog to be posted with my travel stories, since I love traveling. I've seen my friends making blogs with their own purposes, like fashions and most of them write poems, which are really, really great), but they're in my user account and I'm now on my dad's. So I have nothing here. But of course, I have something to share, though you may consider it's not really necessary. Besides, I find blogging is also the way to escape from my mom's anger.

OK, a bit chitchat, Don't ask me why she's mad, she just happens to be mad everyday. It's like she can't live with it the way you can't live without watching your favorite TV show in routine) Although there're no any problems, she suddenly - in a super peaceful situation - brings them up and complains about unnecessary things. Like today, I bought pantovel shoes size 38. I've never bought any shoes that big, but size 37 is just too small, so I decided to choose 38. And yadayada.


Fine, enough about chitchat.

Right now, I'm reading The Devil Wears Prada, as you might have known it as the 2006 starring Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep. I've been into Chicklit these days (Yes, I've never been into Teenlit, only in my junior high years), since it's warm, witty, funny, and it depicts just what a reality is like. I love Chicklit coming from New York, especially. New York-set stories feature many elite institutions, places, and just cool societies (speaking about Upper East Side) and how life of a New York elite revolves around fashion, institutions, nannies, and French. It's just so great about it. The Devil Wears Prada and the Nanny Diaries perhaps have similarities and also the fact that both of them are actually my favorite novels.

A bit synopsis. TDWP tells about Andrea Sachs, who wanted to be a writer in The New Yorker but instead ends up in a world that is totally not her. She ends up being Miranda Priestly's assistant (she's like the fiction world's Anna Wintour). The thing is, Miranda, her boss, is not kind of a nice boss. She demands Andi to do things in impossible length of time and some demands are even absurd.

Well, I almost finish reading the book. I can't wait to see the ending....
