BOOK RATINGS
My reading consists of various types of literature, but as of yet, I have
not focused on heavy literature (like Shakespeare for example). Here are
the ratings and titles below.
Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings (page 330/458) (__/10)
Oedipus the King (9.1/10)
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
(9.0/10)
A Clockwork Orange (7.1/10)

REVIEWS: A CLOCKWORK ORANGE (7.1/10) As
I began reading this book, I had bland thoughts in my mind. Like unsalted
butter. I had no idea what was going on, nor was the esoteric language
helping me understand. It was just a bunch of disturbing teenagers going
around and creating a havoc. This book was also for a school project, so I
did not much concentrate on finishing it (spark notes!). But as I kept on
reading, it enveloped me. I WANTED to finish the book, even though the
school project was over and I had BS-ed it. The
initial parts of the book might be just weird (but interesting), the story
takes a fantastic turn in the middle, and becomes really engrossing. The
end is good too. Some parts which were not clear at the beginning became
clear as a bell and importantly, I even understood words that the author
had been using since the beginning of the read, and they're not even in
the dictionary! So I
recommend this book to any readers above 16 years of age (because below
that you probably will not be able to relate or understand the language).
I rate this book 6 out of 10 stars.

Widely Circulated Story during Summer...(8.28.03)
UPDATE: Ladies
and gentlemen, I think we have an update for the story
below. Seems like one of the candidates in this apparent
power struggle has accepted defeat and left the side of
his beloved...more like forced to leave side. So the
matter seems to be over, all that's left is the clean-up
of mess left over from the struggle between two hormone
enraged males.
STRUGGLES:
They say love goes hand in hand...but what if there are 2
hands for every hand. Its awkward, but that is the
situation right now in the Asian Posse. This situation
could be aptly dubbed: The Love Struggle. It is the
essence of life (competition is) and the only story
available for Indian movies. But alas, who could've ever
thought it would happen right here, on the Asian Posse
premises. Well it has and it had turned into a power
struggle, a ferocious competition amongst males for a
female. There have been massive urination pools around the
female's house and the only thing one of the males lacks
is resources (i.e. car).
Who will get the princess?!
There is an update in the situation
and looks like someone HAS gotten the princess after all after one of the
contestants accepted defeat and decided to move along in life in search of
another mate.

I was right...(6.13.03)
Turns out I was right, I've been given the biggest
blow of my life. This semester was the worst in my life. I probably got
the worst GPA and my cumulative GPA dropped also. What does that mean?
That means that my chances for attending a good colleges have been
hampered a bit. So, now I have taken a vow...never to screw around and
to do my best next semester albeit the fact that senior year is not as
important as Junior, but hopefully colleges will realize that I do have
potential.

NEW
SCHEDULE (Junior Year 2nd Semester)
2.1.03
My schedule for 2nd semester sucks big
time. At least it is worst than the 1st one.
| 1 |
ENALC |
My first impression: Stupid class, this is where
every damn word has 10 different meanings and everything
can be interpreted in a million different ways. As for the
class, its not interesting and NOW I WISH
I WAS BACK IN HELL FROM WHENCE I CAME: BELLISARIO
My second impression:
Actually this class isn't that bad. The work load is
fine, the classmates are fine (excluding the sycophants),
and the teacher is not as mean as she looks. |
| 2 |
Spanish III |
My first impression: Another boring class. People aren't
that funny. We just sit there and go over homework. The
teacher talks way too fast and cracks the worst jokes. Muy
aburrido.
My second Impression:
This class is still boring. The teacher is still NOT
funny but has improved her stupidity. No complaints about
classmates. |
| 3 |
US History |
My first impression: With
Eby, this is where my
day gets interesting. The class is fun and relaxing.
My second impression: Mr. Eby has good questions
and his tests are usually essay. |
| 4 |
Adv. Bio |
My first impression: Oooh, tough class. Shit-load
of memorization.
My second impression: This class is pretty cool. A
LOT TO LEARN. Cool (and hot) teacher. |
| 5 |
PE |
My first impression: I hate this class too. Very
boring. There is almost no one there I know. My 1st
semester class was AMAZING....now I have been thrown back
to hell.
My second impression: |
| 6 |
Lunch!!! |
...Boring. THE
ONLY DAMN PERSON I KNOW IS NICK and Jabali |
| 7 |
Enr. Physics |
My first impression: Not as cool as last semester,
although Duncan is still there.
My second impression: Wilverding is cooler, but the
class is still boring. Duncan is not as dynamic as 1st
semester. |
| 8 |
Hnrs. Adv. Alg. |
My first impression: This class has lost its
frootiness after Hamza left. It was the greatest class ever. Now, its
filled with sycophants, filthy fat suck-ups, smart-asses,
teacher's pets, jackasses, etc. (Not that there weren't
any in my previous class, but they were funny to
watch).
My second impression: Much harder than 1st
semester. |
