The Lovely Bones



It's only the 1st week of the new semester and I started to feel terribly sianx about school. I think what stresses me is that I keep thinking of how to improve my grades this sem and the tons of tuition lessons I have to attend right after school. Situation will get worse when the tutorials start officially. But yeah, there's nothing I can do to change anything, so I shall try my best to deal with everything.

I wanted to go to sleep at 1am last night but instead I went to watch a movie I've earlier on downloaded, it's called "The Lovely Bones". It was adapted from one of the best selling novels, I happen to read the chinese version novel when I was sec4 and even wrote a book review to participate in the International Chinese Book Review Competition. (Of course, I didn't won.)

The book is written in a 14 yr old girl, Susan Salmon's narration who was raped & murdered by her neighbour, body was never found. She describes her family's reaction towards her death and how that changes the family, also, the murderer's fear.

The story sent me into deep thoughts. I put myself in the shoes of Susan Salmon. What if I disappear in this world suddenly? Would I be disappointed if my loved ones decide to forget me and move on with their lives after some time? Would I have regrets to something I should have done?

The book is really nice and the movie is even more amazing. I would strongly recommend everyone to read the novel, or at least watch the movie. =)
