im bored and tired. i have to TA a class at 9 am and have like 400 pages of reading to finish by the weekend, but instead im gonna post on sf. has anyone read kazuo ishiguro's 'never let me go'? just got it -- so far so good. really loved 'remains of the day'


Dude, that's one of my favorite books of all time! I love me a good dystopian. How was Remains? Worth the read?

PS: The movie for that book sort of sucked, no character development at all

My USB card containing 15000 words of work to be handed in on monday has been stolen from the library when i went to the toilet. Stupid of me not to backup, i know, but really? a $10 usb drive?

i LOVE remains of the day. i think it's one of the best books written in the past 30 years. fantastic. so far never let me go is pretty similar. have you red atwood's dystopian novels - oryx and crake/the handmaiden's tale? i think they're ok. probably a good entry into a dying genre.

I saw the movie if that counts. It was okay, some nice cinematography.

please tell me all this clarks and j crew bullshit is just trolling.... it's like going on a cooking forum and telling everyone hot pockets are the ideal food because they're easy and cheap and a step up from white castle

Last couple of pages have been awful. So glad I was stubborn enough to never jump into the J.Crew/Clarks/APC hype. Guess I sort of did on the BoO stuff, but I got lots of enjoyment from my Band and while I don't see myself buying another anytime soon, hold no grudges

im gonna go brush my teeth and sleep, but some real fashion thoughts:

1. stacking on jeans is overrated
2. i just bought a pair of 484 slim selvedge from j crew and i like them. tight as balls at first, but stretching out like paper -- but they're easy, they're lightweight and they're cheap.
3. i really appreciate when i trash the **** out of my clothing. i love worn in things. shorts where the dye is starting to fade, sweaters with holes. it's authentic and has value in an age of fast-fashion consumerism.
