I'm back...

Wow... I just read my last post and it's more than two years ago... I love writing and I might be boring but the good feeling I get after writing is something I can't describe... It's something that I wouldn't change with anything else. I've been busy and been through ups and downs of life. But things are kinda back to normal... like I don't have to work 16 hours a day like last December and January and even though I'm in the middle of renovating my house and planning a wedding, I'm a lot less stressed as I used to be. This is really quick update of what is going on... but what is really going on which occupies my mind 80 percent of the time is my new book... I hired this girl back in June after interviewing maybe 20 people and I was ready to settle on one of the mediocre one and try to train her but my boss told me to wait until i find the perfect candidate... and I did... she is smart ... very smart and really working with her is so easy... maybe that's why my stress level is so down. I took a vacation in August to go to a cottage we rented for week and I was looking to find a good book to read. So she told me about this book she is reading and brought the first two books of twilight for me.... I know I know.... it's not exactly the kind of book that considered "real book" not like Hemingway which I really like but it's a book and it's good for reading in vacation... But I had no idea that I’m going to get obsessed with it so much that I couldn't stop thinking about it... by Monday at the cottage I finished the first book and Rish(my fiancé) had to come back to Toronto for a meeting so I asked him to rent me the movie. I was in the middle of the second book when he brought the movie. I'm so glad he is being what he is because instead of renting it, he bought the blue ray DVD. He has absolutely no sense of money but he is great... so I watched the DVD and finished the second book and now all I can think about is this book and specially Edward Cullen... the second main character which is a Vampire and falls in love with this human... I just don’t know why I'm attracted to him so much. I think it's because he has everything anyone wants. He is drop dead gorgeous, he has lots of money and he is been living for 100 years and he is not dying and he graduated Harvard and few other ivy leagues and really when you don't have to sleep for 100 years, there's a lot you can learn . Usually all the love stories, the person in love is in some sort of disadvantage and really when someone has everything going for him is usually subject to other people being in love with him. But he has this unconditional love for Bella even though he has to stop himself from drinking her blood... I totally think they could have found a better actor for the role of Edward Cullen. Robert Pattinson is great and because of his role in Harry Potter, I kinda like him but Edward should have been someone like Daniel Day-Lewis only maybe few decades younger! I'm reading the third book now and I am enjoying every moment of it. It's like I enter this different world when I open the book.
