1: The TimeKeeper, P. 1-63 (prologue-cave)

As I mentioned in my earlier post that I'm fascinated by the Idea of time and how we always want more of it (For example, you're at Disney Land and your tickets are only for one day and you arrive late, you think "please time stop" so you could play) yet when we have more we can't wait for it to pass (for example, you didn't sleep well last night and you had to go to school, and all day all you think about is "time pass faster").
My book is the story of the everlasting struggle between man and time. Its about a man named Dor and his pursuit to count time. it's about a girl who wanted more time to get ready for a date. And its about and old man who wasn't ready to accept his bounding fate.

a quote I found really profound in the book so far

The TimeKeeper 
- Mitch Albom 

After I posted the book that I will be reading for class, I realized that I had forgotten my book back in my home country :( 
So, I decided to read another book that I started but didn't finish (btw, Procrastinating is bad for you!!) 
I was fascinated with the plot of this book and I had read other books by the same author. I'm fascinated by the aspect of time and how people spend all their life seeking more time but still rushing through it. 

and by far my most favorite quote from the book 

Everything Bad is Good for You

Well, I bought this book last year and it's been collecting dust for a while
I did read a chapter or two and I really liked it
"Steven Johnson draws from fields as diverse as neuroscience, economics, and media theory to argue that the pop culture we soak in every day—from Lord of the Rings to Grand Theft Auto to The Simpsons"

I feel the book is perfect for me because it combines my favorite hobby (watching TV) and two essential characteristics (sarcasm and philosophy)
