New Books.. :)

I got a new borrowed books after we watched "Hantu Jeruk Purut" in BSM. total of them r 6 books. i always like to read new books, i mean the books i never read before.. :)

i have read one of them, titled "Tuesdays with Morrie". i just finished it this morning. actually it is little boring. a story about someone who got a disease called ALS that attack humans neurotic nets. it is a terrible disease.

the author was a student of the man who got the disease who was a lecturer. in the end of his life, the lecturer's former student at the university, also his friend, has been a long time didn't make a contact to him.untill one night a TV station showed a programme about the lecturer who got the ALS disease. he struggled eventhough he was about to die.

the student, named Mitch, watch the TV programme and suddenly he remembered his promise to the lecturer, that was Morrie.that he would be always in contact. in fact, for more than 20 years he didn't make any contact. he forgot his promise. he was too busy doing his job at a newspaper publisher. he always worked hard because he always think that if he didn't use his life time well he would be sorry.

till at he saw the TV show, then he went to Morrie's house to visit him. actually he felt sorry about it. but when he came to Morrie's house, Morrie welcame him. (according to my memory) he said; "welcome my friend".

Mitch was a student who shared his life story and experiences with Morrie when he was a student in university. they usually met on tuesday, share they life on tuesday, and always do guidance on tuesday for Mitch thesis.

now when the disease really excruciating Morrie, Mitch realized that he had to do an important thing. his "last lecture" with his professor, Morrie. the lecture only has one student, that was Mitch.
the lecture was never given any grade, the subject is about life.

this story is a little sad story, when Morrie was about to die, he shared his knowledge about life to the other, the most important thing is about love, about what we can giving and taking, whatever things happened in our life. one thing i really don't like about this book and story: Morrie was a hebrews. there are few little thing we should not take from this story. but i can't mention it, you should read it first... :)

well, i still got a few books to read, a comic series and a thick novel. i think this gonna be bore to read.. :(
