Badminton.Wicked.Books.

So. I played badminton this morning. Guess who was my team mate in a couple of games? A member of the Philippine National Team. Awesome! While we were playing he was giving me some pointers to improve my game. But of course I've forgotten those pointers already. Ha ha. But who cares? I had fun. And that's the reason why I play badminton. To have fun and meet new friends with common interests.

I'm so tired and sleepy but I still have to go to work. No rest for the wicked, really. Speaking of wicked, have you already read the novel Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury? I still haven't. Though I promised myself to read it countless times already. Maybe if I can find an actual book, not just an e-book, I may finally read it. Currently, I'm reading Red Dragon by Thomas Harris simultaneously with In The Night Room by Peter Straub. Yes. I read two books at once. Don't ask. I like reading. I like going to imagined worlds once in a while.

Someone asked me once: if there is one book you'd like to be translated into a movie, what would it be? I would have to say Stranger In A Strange Land by Robert Heinlein. And I wish it could be directed by Steven Spielberg with Anthony Hopkins or Jack Nicholson as Jubal Harshaw. Anyone can play Valentine Michael Smith, except for Ben Afleck. Ha ha. I grok.
