集合——

最后一次机会了，大家聚一聚，明天就要各奔东西啦~~~

时间有限（2009年9月12日14:22:46），爷爷正在田里采棉花，不一会就会回来，晚上要和妈妈去超市 last-minute shopping, 明天早上去学校，而我的比赛稿子还没有搞定，头还没洗，水还没烧，东西还没整理……时间有限，我只能做一个很简短的回顾。

1.从左到右，第一本是我旧的笔记，已经写满了（相当于一架子书的精华哦）。

2. Mapping the Social Landscape （Sociology textbook），如果说暑假借书回家是我曾经（两个月前）年少无知的表现，那么决定借这本书就是登峰造极的愚蠢行为——纸张太好，太重了。里面有很多对演讲赛比较有用的字词句及观念，都一一做了标记，而且基本上与我现实生活的时间与空间有直接联系的文章都粗略地看过了，但是始终没有下笔记录，可能觉得这是一个比较庞大的工程吧。所以看过的将慢慢被遗忘，gone with the wind...

3. The Barry Diller Story, very helpful, informative, inspiring... Thick but not heavy. Many things learned from this book are still lying dormant, but I am confident that they will come in handy someday. And its power has yet to be dug.

4. Republic. Honestly, I didn't read it.

5. The Castle. Kafka is great.

6. The Prophet. It will be perfect if it excluded all the Chinese translations and illustrations.

7. Brave New World Revisited. This is a real book! 117 pages, smells all paper and ink, and not a word wasted!

8. Guiliver's Travels. I still don't see any reason reading something like that...

9. The Pictures of Dorian Gray. Except for the Chinese translation in the footnotes, I like the book as a whole.

10. The Fall. Another REAL book.

11. The Essential O Henry. I didn't read it thoroughly.

12. 古汉语常用字典。天气凉了，收起来，来年继续给电风扇垫脚。

13. 日记本（后改名写作手稿）（hard cover）。下次假期继续写。

14. 新笔记本。TURN A NEW LEAF!

集合完毕，解散！
