Guava and Stephen Hawking!!!

Again, I was at the library today returning stacks of romance books previously borrowed and unfortunately never read (thanks to the fact that I am largely monogamous to a book when writing a review on it). For some reason, I decided I was bored with romance books for a while, and suddenly whoosh had a sudden interest in the Solar System. I ended up finding a bunch of books on Pluto, Uranus and stuff under the category Juvenile Literature.

You know, that type with thirty words on one page and a picture on the next page.

Anyway, I decided staring at those books just wouldn't cut it for me and therefore I sped to the nearest computer in hopes of locating a physical encyclopedia that included all the information about the universe that could possibly be held in a single book. Yeah. Most of the located books came from 1970++ that is already older than my parents, which is simply ridiculous.

Therefore I stalked around the library and I found the section Astrology! Yaaaaaaay!

I flipped open the first ridiculously thick book about Pluto and barely understood 75% of what the poor author was blubbering about. But really, I'm sure it beats reading juvenile literature. And lo and behold, at that very moment, Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time popped into my head. It was like, ah, eureka moment.

Therefore, I ran back to the computer.... and found nothing :( Dejected, I walked back to the shelf to look at the Pluto book I barely understood and.... 

A Brief History of Time was right in front of meeeeeeeeee! 

I was so excited, I squeeeeeealed and hopped around like a stupid fool. Wahahahahahaha. I barely think I'll be able to understand 80% of it, but well, it has the word Brief in its title, so whatever, really. :D Besides, I am really impressed with Stephen Hawking and his achievements, so I just wanna try reading a book of his. 

Obviously, I don't think I'll be able to write a book review on this kind of book (lol, that would just be odd), but I might be able to write down what I felt as I read it, or something along those lines. You know. The foreword actually made me laugh out loud, thanks to Stephen Hawking's dry wit and oddly amusing remarks. I like his sense of humour a lot. I flipped through the book, and he presents all the information in a no-nonsense way. I like that :D 

With that, I end my post for today. I shall enjoy my book now... :)

- The Guava (lots of love!)
