Reading. Reading books.

For the past few nights I've been falling asleep listening to Stephen Fry read out The Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy. It's an awesome book, and listening to him read it out makes it even better. He does all the voices so well and everything, it's like being a kid again listening to someone read it to you. When I start drifitng off though it gets really annoying, like I keep waking up to him saying something weird and I've missed loads of the story so I have to turn it off but then I can't get back to sleep.
I started reading A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini as well. I'm about 6 chapters in and it's pretty good. The Kite Runner was awesome I thought, and I watched the film the other day which wasn't as good but at least now I can properly picture Afghanistan in the seventies. It's weird thinking that it was almost the same as loads of European countries at the time, a lot like Ireland actually. It had just started to become a proper developed country. Then the Russians came in and fucked things up, then the Taliban came along and made it even worse. It sucks really.
I'm waiting on a shit load of books to come from Amazon for college. The only one that I was really interested in reading, The Portable Graham Greene, wasn't fucking available. So annoyed. He's a class writer, really intelligent and funny.
I'm still halfway through The Liar by Stephen Fry. I always tend to leave books halfway through for a while and then come back later on. I don't know why, I should really read it all at once.

Ah sure bollocks.
