    MARYAM!!! I bet you miss her alot..its not easy to part with your friend but am sure you are on touch..
    peony in love is a bit creepy..and you know what..i hate reading anything that has ghosts vampires and that sort of stuff (I love harry potter though^_^) but i really liked peony in love because i learnt may things about china from it..i read it just before going to china 2 years ago..
    regarding movies..am watching now merlin season 2 on bbc..I DO love this series^_^and waiting for lark rise season 3 also..I downloaded Emma (2009) but did not get a chance to watch it yet..

    I am reading balzac and the little seamestress..its written by a chinese writer..i noticed that you added the joy luck club ..i read the novel and watched the movie and i liked them both..the problem with the book is that i kept mixing between the characters^_^ but it had a REAL chinese taste..peony in love also has a real chinese taste if you understand what i mean*_^

    by the way..i was thinking of you and Najla few days ago when i read 'love is not love' by sheakspeare..maybe because it was mentioned in sense and sensibility and i know Jane Austen is one of your favorites^_^
    did you watch any interesting movie or miniseries lately?!

    Hiiiiiiiiiiii, your portfoloio shows that you didnt access shelfari for almost a month!! I thought that you were busy with the university!
    yes..sometimes i dont enjoy teaching..I teach more than 100 students for 5 lessons a day which means I have to carry my work home..I barely have time to myself..imagine coreccting 100 worksheet..100 dictation..100 book..100 test..it drives you crazy..and sometimes it prevents you from giving your best..
    regarding scotland's trip..yeah i really enjoyed it..it was fun..we both deserve to escape from the school and the university to a faaaaaaaaaar away place!!

    i know right! it is huge! that's why i didn't buy it too :) i got the ebook version. i know it's hard to stare at the screen for a long time but there are some special cases in which i wouldn't mind doing it like this one.
    i also have the book of luke on my computer! i am so reading it after this one or after i finish reading the whole series of Jessica Darling.

    I still haven't read dairy queen! And it still looks amazing, I remember checking out the author's website and front and center was in the coming soon page :D I just finished reading pretty little liars, it's not good but I wanted to check it out since they're turning it into a tv show. Right now I'm gonna start sloppy firsts. Have you read it?

    I don't think ull find it in kino. I remember I called them and Borders and they were out of stock. Then I called magrudys and they only had one copy in their Jumeirah branch so I asked them to save it for me and I picked it from their Burj branch.

    Anyways, why buy it! Ill get it with me this thursday when we meet inshalla along with commencement (its been waiting in a bag since foreverr)

    yes! i mean the writer could have added a little more to it. i loved the book too :D i read memoirs of a teenage amnesiac and i absolutely loved it! again, it could have been better you're right, Dakota Fanning is better for darker more serious roles, and even though she's grown up she still can't pull off the character's age.
    have you seen the secret life of bees? i [3 that movie! i love the southern accent and the old timey settings =D
    ooooh! tell me about the boy in the stripped pajamas, please. what is it about? did they a movie based on it or something? i remember reading a similar title on a DVD case at a petrol station mini mart =P i think it was emarat petrol station even hehe Allah ybarik feech, i'm doing well thank you. how's ramadan with you?
    and sorry for the late reply, uni has started -yuck!- and i have this amazing course called introduction to literature, my professor has canceled the classes for the upcoming week and it sucks cuz this is the only class i like!
