warning: weird post
My marketing books are going to be leaving me soon - yi yi bu she de gan jue!!!
The smaller one looks so cute/neat, and i've placed tiny notes on certain pages. Even the spine looks new for its age (biological age ha!). And now, I won't be seeing it again. damn. the next owner had better treat it well, or else...oh wells, it's not even like I can do anything, and the book doesn't have feelings.
Animism right? Calling a book 'cute' and feeling sad to let it go - sounds so illogical, but there's no other way to explain it. When a person has come to grudgingly appreciate a subject, been influenced so much by it, and invested so much time, energy and tears (yes, even tears over the stressful periods), the person inevitably clings to it? In a way, letting go of the book symbolises waving goodbye and acknowledging that it was just a fling, a falling star, a melting snowflake.
*grin* ok i like that sentence
even though it was "over-the-top drama". heh
and on another note (but same topic):
G, you had better by treating my social psych textbook rite!!!
If you're, in any way, crumpling the edges, folding the corners, tearing the pages (god forbid!), spilling disgusting stuff to disfigure it, giving it to small kids to play with, and bascially not showing my baby (aka book) respect, I
WILL Make You Regret.
*gives fierce face*
Pls pls pls don't make me regret not buying a protective plastic bookcover/lending you the book...-very serious stephie-
