Summer spirit

here
Hurraaaaaah!! It's over, exams are over, no more school until september.
I'm a self-proclaimed lazy person, and more often than not I find myself not feeling like doing anything productive: In blogging, this takes the shape of posts filled with lyrics and quotes with no single personal touch .
I admit this can be rather rebarbative, but even if I end up having no readers, I'll keep on writing even very occasionnaly; for I'll never know when these congested thoughts inside my head will be crying out for release, and I cannot assure this can be done on a regular basis, just as I cannot assure that you may have to put up from time to time with random outbursts of feverish incoherent babbling.

That being said, I hope i'll be more of an assiduous blogger during these alleged "holidays"; since my two month intunship is starting tomorrow and God only knows how much I hate inturnships! I can't help getting incredibly bored at each one of them, becauseI'm either given tedious mind-numbing tasks or left in a state of utter inaction counting down the hours until I'm allowed to leave (human beings are such complex creatures to satisfy =). But I know I'll mainly miss that feeling of lazying around in my bed the whole day reading Milan Kundera's novels and listening to Yann Tiersen (I've been on Yann Tiersen music kick since early this month!).
At the same time, my summer reading list has been overflowing with titles of books I'd very hopefully be reading in my spare time. Here's a little glimpse into it:
-The Joke by Milan Kundera.
-Notes from the Underground by Fedor Mikhailovitch Dostoevsky.
- Laughable Loves by Milan Kundera.
- L'amour aux temps du Choléra by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
- Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom.
I bought L'amour Aux Temps du Choléra on a whim while I was walking by a bookstore last week, but the long descriptions have deterred me from continuing the reading experience, and so I succombed to the temptation of consuming another Kundera's novel namely The Joke. I can't express how I dramatically fell in love with this author books since The Unbearable Lightness of Being, his writing is so unbelievable that I can't help wondering at times how can a man has such a keen understanding of human psychology. His philosophical insights are so revealing and his storytelling skills so enthralling that I find myself reading some passages over and over again just to enjoy their endless generous beauty.
