I like to sit in a coffee shop and read, only light stuff there, such as detective mysteries.
This merges my two addictions of coffee and detective mysteries perfectly, and I spice this solitary activity with a touch of lounge music on my mp3 player (not an ipod i wish!) I like to take pictures a lot, drive when its raining, or just during the real autumny days in Lebanon, they're scarce in november and by december winter has settled. I love to go to movies, but prefer a dvd night with friends and a good Chateau Kefraya to going out.

plus a new guy called Tim Brett Day. He does some good photoshop work as well.
A priority would be meeting people I chat with regularly, but who I dont know in real life.
Kundera
I wonder if he thinks life is laughable and banal as he writes in Risibles Amours (Laughable Loves)
Eco, for his immense knowledge
Finally, the real treat would be meeting the most beautiful girl in the world:
Miss Daria Werbowy

Never thought I'd finish, Moby Dick, par Melville.
To be read, L'insoutenable legerte de l'etre, par Kundera.
I want to explore contemporary literature more. All my life I refused to read anything past 19th century. I finished Jean Genet which I liked, I once read Le Marin de Gibraltar par Duras, and I didn't like it at all, but if I read it now I'm sure I will appreciate it more. I want to read Alain Robbe Grillet! I must no? But the edition of his books is so expensive! I also have some books on Naturalisme et Realisme and an overview of the history of the novel. But these will have to wait.
