As you can see below, last night I got a little excited about putting banana animations on the site. But seriously! The first animation to ever touch this blog surely deserves a little recognition..even if it is a two inch tall pixellated dancing banana :) and it is a bit distracting.. I mean it's going to be dancing for all eternity until I delete it or something haha.
Anyways, nuffin much happening. I'm a good way into Metamorphosis (Franz Kafka). It's so utterly different from what I usually read..kind of like a collection of thoughts and weird stories. Like when I first read Metamorphosis I was like hm..ok so he turns into a giant insect, just accept it.
Some of the images he creates in the stories I've read so far are pretty awesome though. Like in 'The Aeroplanes of Brescia' he ends with an image of an aeroplane climbing so high, 'his position can only be fixed by the stars, which will soon show in the sky that is already darkening'. I like that image of an ever-climbing plane..as opposed to my writing about bananas. (But seriously!)
So although some of the stories are really weird, I think it's one of those books that keeps getting better as you read them more often. Well, you get more meaning/understanding out of it, yall know?
Have to go to an appointment soon. I can hear those indian mynas squawking outside..those brown birds with the yellow things around their eyes. Lol I remember doing a report on them as 'pests' in geo..apparently they're territorial and so get rubbish and stuff it into potential nesting holes so native birds can't use them. Anyways they keep standing close to the backyard window and looking into the house haha. Suspicious...
Wishing for a pet crow or raven that would sit on my shoulder.. that would be pretty cool.
