you know what, i should write down my reflections of my task in this blog. but tonight, i feel like i need to relax myself and get some inspiration.
so, what's my story during the weekend? yesterday, i borrowed a novel from my housemate, Jannet, entitled Brand new friend. what makes me attracted to read this novel is because, the writer is a male, Mike Gayle. have you ever wished you could see into the male mind? :)
in my point of views, besides Nicholas Sparks, i really like the way Mike Gayle's arrange his stories. and i feel that the vocabularies used by him are understandable.
now, let me go straight to the point. the story begins when Rob's girlfriend asks him to leave London and live with her in Manchester (Rob's girlfriend name is Ashley and she is a doctor),it means he needs to leave behind all his best mates in London. for the sake of his love for Ashley and with the hope that he'll meet new mates in Manchester, Rob takes the challenge to migrate.
six months in,and et to find so much drinking buddy, Rob realises that making friends in your thirties can be the hardest thing to do. Ashley decided to place an ad in the classifieds for him. but, it doesn't mean that rob is gay. he just need to find new mates to cheer him up. unfortunately, it didnt help much. it quite difficult for him to find new mate which has the same interests with him. he tries his very best to mix with others, though the people he meet only knows how to talk about bussiness, house prices, family and so on.
His luck changes when he met Jo! Jo Richards. and she is a girl. what's wrong with the opposite sex become best friends? is it possible not to fall in love? Rob have been lie to ashley. he never told ashley that Jo is a girl and ashley always thought that JO is J-O-E and he is a male. (hehehe)
but, when ashley gets to know the real Jo, her heart turn into pieces. Rob was scared World War 3 might occur when girlfriend meets girlfriend and he asked Jo to leave the house. but then, everything comes back to normal as Rob promised ashley that he will never ever fall in love with Jo. they were just good friends. and that's it. well, ashley agreed and she realised that Rob didnt need her permission to make new friends. "Just do what makes u happy." said ashley.
when i read this novel, deep in my heart, i want to switch the story. if i am given a chance, i will let Rob to fall in love with Jo, and he broke up with ashley. seriously, based on the story, Jo seems to be more attractive and pretty than ashley. and she is a simple minded and simple lifestyle.
anyway, I haven't finish reading it.and i don even know how is the ending.;0)
"He doesn't fancy her, she doesn't fancy him. so what's wrong with her being his."
wait until i finish my reading..:)
Love,
Endun.
