Aha! I'm ahead in my research paper. CHEYEAH!~ =) The title is referring to that story of how the grasshopper was playing and having fun all summer and fall and the ant was very cleverly prearing for winter, and in the end, the grasshopper was cold and hungry in the winter because he didn't have the common sense to collect food. Me? I would like very much NOT to be that grasshopper. As for being the ant who prepares and does things AHEAD OF TIME?....... Yeah, I'm all right it. Hehe..^^ I was skimming through a book that I bought from the school book fair (also mentioned in the blog: Me = New Books for the Inner Cook in Me) that guides one through the concept of a research. Even though it was a bit pricey ($17) I think that it's worth it. The content is useful and I even marked it up so far with a highlighters and plan to go over it again with some sticky notes when I relax at the library on Saturday. (Potential plan?) The book's called MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers: SIXTH EDITION. Concise enough right? =3
I'm also reading a book right now called Freedom: The Courage to Be Yourself. Mom gave me a pile of books I would say a good month ago...and I figured to start. There's apparently other concepts that he writes about. I'd like to read one of this other concepts called awareness: The Key to Living in Balance. I think that it's very amusing to see life from another person's perspective. It's something to think about. Intuition: Knowing Beyond Logic and Creativity: Unleashing the Forces Within (corny...but we'll make do with it) seems to be interesting as well. The author is apparently Osho. I'm going to look this person up later. His point of views seem like pretty decent food for thought. =)
One more day before the three day weekend. Almost thereeeeee!~ =)

It's funny to me that the things that used to be pricey no longer seem to be so. I remember the days when a 17USD book would be an extravagant purchase, but nowadays I rarely leave the bookstore without 20-30USD in books on a quick pick-me-up on the way home from work/school.
