About the Author
At the first cutting light of August, many years ago, the world got the first glimpse of the entity known henceforth as
Leon Yip. It decided to douse the aforesaid with sunshine, sweets, and loads of love.
Legend has it, so convicting were his words, that upon his request, the world agreed to revolve around him, forever, and ever, and ever.

Thanks, Javelyn. That reassurance was well welcomed.
Today was probably the only day in which I stayed home the whole time. Actually, I'm about the go outside for a walk. Buy some snacks, get a drink (non-alcoholic, mind you). I need to go to Borders again. To restock on my "food for my soul" which is books.
"The Kite Runner" is a lit student's dream. And the whole impact of the story really shook me, and if I wasn't playing Need for Speed Porsche Unleased whilst reading that delightful book, I believe I would have let the sphincter muscles at my tear ducts succumb to the overwhelming emotions the book brought about. Too bad I didn't fully concentrate on the book, as I was also speeding down the glorious highways of the Autobahn, great fields of the Normandy, the breathtaking mountains of the mighty Alps and the scintilating lights of the Monte Carlo.
Gosh I wish I could get season tickets to see the F1 night races in our own little sunny island.
Okay. The song which is really stuck in my head right now is the acoustic version of Misery Business by Paramore. Musically, it is nearly flawless. The is a dark eerie glow to the guitar riff, and the use of the pentatonic scale. Hayley's voice is just a fresh mix of defiance, triumph and feminity. Plus, she is reeeeally pretty. Especially with that sexily cute pink streak in her hair.
Okay. See ya' later. I'm going to 7-11 now.
Sigh.
