Norwegian Woods takes me back in time to the 1960s in a place in Japan, it's a story about an anti-social boy and girl mainly haha! It's a wonderful book about love and life and it contains so much depth! Everytime i read it, it takes my soul away. It is so interesting, the japanese way of life and they way they love, although it doesn't sound interesting the way i put it haha! But they're really kool! They lead their lives so differently lol! My life seems childish as compared to theirs haha!
I've only finished the first quarter of the book and it talks about this guy, Toru's life. And he is SO ANTI-SOCIAL. Lol he only has two friends, Kizuki, his best friend, and Naoko, his best friend's girlfriend. Hmmmmm i wonder are there really ppl like him in real life? Really got ppl have ONLY TWO friends?! These two friends are a couple somemore, hmmmmm. (But the story goes on to tell that Kizuki died and Toru was forced to alter his way of life, including making new friends...)
Anyway, the main point is, Toru didn't like friendly ppl, he dislike girls who talk alot and try to be friends with him. He felt that friendly ppl are irritating and abit fake. THIS, ANGERED ME.
Because that means he doesn't like me. I dun like ppl who dun like me. LOL!
But really ma, we make an effort to be friendly and make friends, so that we can be comfortable with each other and help each other, but instead of reciprocating and being nice you think i'm irritating?!?!
When we're friendly we're not trying to act all fake so that you can like us and be friends with us, we're really just trying to be friendly! We're making an effort to be nice!!
I know sometimes maybe i get too carried away and come across as fake, but really, i'm just trying to make friends!:/
K la but i still love the book la lol, I understand that Toru is just a fictional character who needs to be like that so that the story turns out deep and thought-provoking. And indeed, Norwegian Woods just thought-provoked me haha!
Maybe i should just be a little less friendly when i enter NUS in August, i'll only be friendly to those who are friendly to me FIRST. YEA, I SHALL DO THAT. haha!
K BYE! Shall leave you with my face now hahahhaa!:D
