A Resurgence?


I just finished the book, "The Kite Runner" today. Despite it's name, it's less about kites that you might think. Actually, the story takes place from pre-Russian invasion Afghanistan to the near-present, and revolves around the story of a boy, his father, their servants, their response to the calamity following the Afghanistan revolution/Russian invasion. Plot twists abound, and there are a lot of interesting themes about morals and parental acceptance. It was really an amazing story throughout, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Hurry up and read it so we can chit-chat.

Long Beach, California, United States
I'm a registered nurse, working at Long Beach Memorial. I enjoy my job very much, though it can be very stressful and difficult at times. In my free time, I read, throw frisbees, and try to score goals for my roller hockey team. I read every piece of information available that pertains to the LA Kings, I rip movies to my hard drive to watch them later, and I love Xbox live. I recently bought a new bike that I pedal around all the time; if you're ever in Long Beach look for me. I love drinking coffee and beer, occasionally to the point of excess, but I make it a point to always have fun.
