nightrunner series

I am currently on book 2 of the Nightrunner series and I have to say the book is extremely enjoyable!! So much so that I have to force myself to read slower because I don't want to finish the book so quickly but it is so hard to read slowly when the book is this good!!!
This is one of those books that keeps me thinking about the characters, events, the amazing world crafted by the author etc.. long after I have force myself to close the book in order to get my nightly sleep.

practicum

Five weeks of practicum is over!!! YESSS!! It was not as dreadful as previously anticipated.


Hopefully I will be able to learn from my experience and do better in the future.


I realise that I need to think more about the whole 'teaching' thing especially since I realise that it is actually relatively enjoyable. I need to think more about why I would like to continue teaching and the message I would like to pass to my students in the future. As cliche as all this sound, I believe it is really important and I definitely need to think deeply and seriously about it.



Currently playing or rather finish playing -

Dragon Age 2




AND.....


Dragon Age: Origins


Both are AWESOME game I swear!! I know a lot of other gamers think that DA:O is better but I really love DA2!! I am sure there are some gamers out there who really do prefer DA:O but I can't help but feel that most who claim DA2 is not as fun or great are really just teenagers trying to act cool and follow the supposed majority opinion.



I have completed both DA:O and DA2 and found both game entertaining and fun. They both have their flaws and their plus points and I guess as to which game is better....well ultimately it boils down to personal opinion.


Will be playing this game soon, I just bought it a few days back...


ALICE : madness returns!







Book that I am currently reading...

Luck in the Shadows, book I of the Nightrunner series! It is a super exciting fast paced fantasy story. I just seem to get out of the historical fiction or fantasy genre when it comes to books....and yet I like to delude myself into thinking that I am well read...sighs..delusions delusions...
