Bookworm

Finally, winter vacation. The result of the last tests were published, and thankfully I was approved without the final exams (one should get an average of 70 points in exams or 50 points after the final exam to be approved. But that one is more difficult than regular exams... and it has a weight equal to all the other exams together.).

So, it's time to decide what to do during winter vacation. Not much, since it's not that long and my research starts in the next semester. For now, just resuming the ordinary "go with friends to..." that I skipped for the last weeks because of all the exams, reports and presentations. Like going to the arcades and play futsal.

But I usually read at least one book during every summer or winter vacation. This time I still couldn't find one. I've been searching for Asimov's Foundation Series, but the complete collection is nowhere to be found. Other books that I'd like to read, like Rainbow Six, I can't find also... Well, I have one book in queue. A Japanese book that I was presented with (thanks again Kyoko!). I'll use the time to read it, but I'd need some other book as my Japanese reading is way too slow.

So, I'm open to reading suggestions...

Isaac Asimov? Eu ia justamente aconselhar você a não ler nada que lembre Electrical Engineering; sabe, só pra desestressar, como uma "limpeza de disco"...

Sei lah. Tenta ler "A Insustentavel Leveza do Ser", da Milan Kundera. É bem viajante, se vc quiser alguma coisa que nao lembre a engenharia. :P
