Fat hope~~~~~ Hahahahah!

I've been reading this book on child abuse by Dave Pelzer. Although i'm sort of reading it backwards... No choice, not every library got the book as its always on loan. I've finished his third book "The man named Dave" in a few short days, and was lucky to find his second book today at Bedok library, "The lost boy". Will source for his first book soon! The classic "The child called it". These are true stories, an autobiography (its called that right...?) But its so saddening, how he grew up, how hard he fought as a child, i really don't want to imagine the stuffs he went through.

If it was me in his situation, i think i would have "returned to meet my makers" already...!

Although i was never abused as a child, i thought i could feel his pain, that i could see why he reacted the way he did, how he was able to forgive his mother, no matter how badly she had treated him as a child... There are certain values that he holds that is similar to mine and certain personality in him that i think i am that way too.

Yes, i'm going back to the book now. Bye! (Been talking a lot about the books i've been reading recently... Wow, i have become a bookworm! Haha, leisure reading is great! Better than my horrendous school readings...!)
