bought a book yesterday - the Satanic Verses

"The Satanic Verses is Salman Rushdie's fourth novel, first published in 1988 and inspired in part by the life of Muhammad. The title refers to the Satanic Verses, an attempted interpolation in the Qur'an described by Ibn Ishaq in his biography of Muhammad (the oldest surviving text). The authenticity of these Satanic verses has been disputed by the earliest Muslim historians.[1]

The novel caused much controversy upon publication in 1988, as many Muslims considered that it contained blasphemous references. India was the first country to ban the book. Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, a Shi'a Muslim scholar, issued a fatwa that called for the death of Rushdie and claimed that it was the duty of every Muslim to obey, despite never having read the book."

so merry merry christmas everyone!

i've had my fair share of sleep, food, and affection (first time i used the word) so here i blog.

this term was simply awesome. i've gotten closer with many friends and honestly, i've been waiting for these friends for awhile and it's a blessing that i've finally met them.
note: this does not mean i've never had friends that i treasure before.

btw, i've failed my psychology with an incredible mark of 41%, a record low. but this also meant i have a chance failing the term -__-" we'll see, we'll see.

as for events, this term has been rich, filthy rich of events. although most of the time i was probably in DC, i have to admit, DC is a damn good library to hang out, muahahhaa. man, so many good memories.

karen, i'm still at the stage where i don't know the correct words to say to you. but right now, if there's a word that can put sorry and thank you together in a way that would make you smile and feel better, i would be very grateful to know what that word is. i feel very relieved.

anywhos,

today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, are days to be happy.

to those who are worrying, don't worry, be happy.
to those who don't know whether they want what they need or need what they want,
get a Camry.

cheerios and merry christmas.
