on other news, i read the book 'damage done' , on spending 12 yrs in a Bangkok prison. it ain't called the Bangkok Hilton for nothing... *makes note to self* do not smuggle drugs in asia
i can recommend the book, but then again i always enjoy the survival story or a sad story, or a real life horror story. chernobyl, rwanda, being kidnapped in the middle east....i've read them all :P when i used to read that is. which brings me to an interesting topic. during the past few months alone i've read 2 books. which is more than during the past 2 years. internet seems to have lost it's interest. i don't manage to reply e-mails...i go to dA but feel aggravated and tired. but i'm so used to sitting in front of the computer i dunno what else to do. mostly anyway. lately i've spent more time in real life...with friends and stuff, i've always put the company of people high on priority list but only lately have i had the opportunity to frequently hang out with some people. or that's how i feel. could be i just avoided company earlier? anyway, it's sort of scary when i notice how 'little' time i spend online, but usually people are concerned when the shift is the other way around...

i did this small interview today and one of the questions was the usual 'when did you get interested in such dark themes...etc?'. the question was very specific, and for some reason i dug just a little deeper this time. i think i was 4 or so when i heard the most beautiful fairytale ever; the little mermaid. i know, everyone loves the story. but FYI, in the original HC Andersen version, there's a lot of pain described in detail and she dies in the end. i loved that. i was born emo i guess ;)
