When I grow up, I wanna be a media manipulator. Thats the guy that does sly tricks in the media that most people don't notice, yet these sly tricks affects them subtlely. Like making every single character in the da vinci movie use sonyericsson handphones. Betcha didn't notice that! I din't either, till I noticed the police captain Fache using my K600i.

Anyway, this sudden interest rose from a book. 'Slick' by Daniel Price. It has just the cynicalism and skeptism to make it a hugely entertaining read. In fact, I picked up this boo at around 3am last night and aside from about 6 hours or sleep, have just managed to finish reading it. Of course in the process neglecting the biology retest that I have on monday. Nevermind that I have already failed the first one, or that I am supposed to be studying today.

I tried to find out more about the author, but all the reference given inside the book don't exist now. Wonder what happened. Anyway, I would recommend everyone to read this book. This book brings out the skeptic in you, makes you doubt every single word you hear from television, every line you read in the newspapers, and completely makes you forget about impending tests due in the pursuit of the unhappy ending.

I want to write something funny. Its coming up. Hopefully.
