OH MY GOODNESS!! i'm so irratated by Digital Fortress!! ARGH!! It's so annoying!! I realised that despite being a superb writer and his book have got me staying up till 6 in the morning to finish them, he's overly predictable!! AND ANTI-CLIMATIC!! Argh, i can't stand it!! ARGH!! *BASH BASH BASH*!! it's so so so so irratating!!
C'mon, his books are like cast from the exact same mould, for crying out loud!!
It always starts with someone getting killed for infomation/secrets that the whole book would be revolving around, being shot specifically AND by a hired skilled assassin with some problem [in Da Vinci's code - the assassin was an albino, Deception Point - the killer was deaf since the age of 12, Angels and Demons - unhealthy psychotic sexual fetish]. Then the killer always makes the mistake of leaving the victim to a slow painful death and the victim would always manage to pass of his secret before he dies in some form of code AND the killer always goes off happily prancing off thinking that he had acheived the objective of the murder BUT when he reports back to the higher power who required his services, he finds out that he screwed up big time by overlooking the big picture and then so starts the long wild goose chase that lasts throughtout the entire book. The assassin would always encounter the protagonist of the book and try to kill him, but no matter how many freaking times the main character gets shot, drowned, pushed off a flaming helicopter, stabbed, thrashed violently about, pushed off a cliff, he always SURVIVES! And it's all thanks to a particular sport that he trains religiously, for instance in Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, Langdon was saved countless times thanks to his vigiorous swimming training as well as David Becker, managed to escape almost certain death by hanging off a window ledge despite a bullet in his side.. the list goes on, it's ridicolous i tell you, wouldn't want to spoil the story line for those who have not read the books mentioned above.. but a note, you'll get so pissed off with the fact that the characteres are superhuman geinuses, figuring out practically the impossible in an even more impossible time in addition, they can't figure out the simplest codes, hello? i figured that out and saved myself from reading over 11 pages in Digital Fortress, and what's up with using the female protagonist's name as your password?? Once again, from Digital Fortress, when Susan Fletcher was in the lift trying to figure out the code to activate it, i was thinking, oh God, i'll shot myself if the password's susan, and thankfully enough i didn't have a gun nearby otherwise i woulnd't be here bitching about the books!!!
ARGH!!
Anybody knows how i can contact him?

Ok for those who think I'm such a bimbo, you obviously have not met the people in my hostel. This morning when I was in the kitchen getting milk from the fridge, a friend of mine was cooking sausages and eggs for brekkie and this total ditz approached him, curious about the concept of cooking your own food which is totally foreign to an extremely pampered one such as herself.

The conversation went like this-
Him: *happily cooking away* lardeedar..
Her: *eyebrows furrowed inquisitively*Hey, why doesn't the eggs stick to the pan?
Him: Oh, it's non stick.
Her: *expressing herself with excessively arm movements whilst bouncing up and down squealing* OH MY GOD! Where do you get non stick eggs from? Wow, NON STICK EGGS!!!Where did you buy it from?!?
Him: *laughing, then suddenly turned serious* You're kidding right?
Her: No.. Really I never knew eggs were non stick. Where did you buy them from.
Him: *shocked* I meant the PAN is non stick, not the eggs.
Her: REALLY? Are you sure?

The sad thing was, she wasn't kidding, and you thought MOI was an airhead.

I realized that I haven't been online for a hell long time, that's the explanation for the long blogging hiatus of mine, I had originally planned to update you all on the ski trip, but the excitement of it all died down within a week, thus I'm don't feel inspired, to say the very least, to update you with details on that.
The trip to the Snowy Mountains sucked, the coach was filled with irritating people who constantly blasted strange canto music from their laptop, *raises eyebrows* C'mon who brings a laptop to a SKI TRIP!! Besides a business people or whatever, moreover the seat which I took was horrid as I later found out that it was directly underneath the speakers. Speakers that produce more static than actually sound are innately evil, believe me.
Then we got our own Ski Lodge. The meals were really 'interesting' cause we spent most of it guessing what the hell the 'mystery meat dish' was, thank God that I was prepared for the trip - loaded with numerous packets of Swiss Miss Hot Chocolate, tom yum instant noodles, cookies, cookies, more cookies, blue Brie cheese with cracked pepper crackers, and plenty of chocolate. So ended up eating that instead of dinner which was more like entertainment rather than a meal.
Choose snowboarding over skiing cause quote and unquote, I'm 'a truly natural born skier', wheee! Finally something I'm good at, but after watching all those X games, snowboarding seemed so much more attractive. And I found out muslces I never knew I had the evening after the whole intensive day of snowboarding, cause every inch of my body was aching, especially my tail bone which bore the brunt of me falling on my ass.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooo, HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT ski instructor! Super HOT ski instructor, wonder why all the snow didn't melt with him around.. Hmmm..
snowboard, snowboard, snowboard the next day, then headed back to Sydney.
The trip back was thankfully uneventful, slept through the entire 7 hour trip.

Nothing much about the Ski Trip, I guess. Really hate myself for not choosing skiing instead. Actually, it's my aching ass that hates me more for it.

For the pictures of the ski trip, i've added the link on the left side of the blog, click on my pictures.
