Intellectuals: Listen!

1.) @ Nuttz: I HAVE NEVER BEEN MISTAKEN AS MY MOTHER'S YOUNGER SISTER. I am too gorgeus in my own right to be. She justs wants to be my older sister, who wouldn't, right? It isn't until they find out our relationship that they say we look like sisters. Maybe they're just payin' her a compliment, eh? ;D No, we do look alike, very much so, but I wouldn't cross out the possibilty of fake compliments, either.

2.) I have no translation to offer you as of yet. >.< I was read to by my mother last night and I am no longer sure of my memory for all the details of that story. Instead I give you this:

Wisdom's Daughter
by H. Rider Haggard

I had been searching for Wisdom's Daughter by India Edghill when I came upon this piece of work. Forgive my newfound language of words for my style of writing is always affected by the writer I last read. The link I have given above is the book in it's entirety--214 pages total if printed. The link below will bring you to a geocities page with a wonderful synopsis.

It's a truely fascinating story, especially if you're a fan of history and more specifically, of Egytian/Grecian literature. I have found, in what I've read so far which are only fragments of chapters, paragraphs that caught my eye in the little time I had, that it reminds me of...I forget. Nevermind.

I'll get that translation to you soon enough, meaning sometime after my mother returns from her party and whether she'll be in the mood or not. For your sakes, I hope she will be. It's a very funny story. ^-^ For those of you who can read Chinese, I leave you with the pic one more time:

Oh.. okay. Well, it's true, people can fake a compliment all the time. By the way.. the book sounds interesting.

my mom and I look very much alike, but we couldn't be mistaken for siblings. It is very obvious that I am my mother's daughter, though. I don't mind too much. She's aging well, so I can only hope I am just as lucky. Its funny, though, when someone asks 'oh, is this your daughter?' We simply look at each other and go 'nooo, what makes you think that? I have no idea who this person is!' heh ... well, its funny most of the time. :)
