Det blir to korte smakebiter denne gangen, tatt fra The Martian av Andy Weir. Fra baksiden av boken:   Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old "human error" are much more likely to kill him first. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills?and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit?he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossib...

Denne gangen vil jeg dele en beskrivelse. Den er tatt fra side 31 i samlingen "The Complete Stories of Sherlock Holmes". Smakebiten er fra fortellingen "A Study in Scarlet", hvor Watson beskriver Holmes mens sistnevnte undersøker et åsted.  "As he spoke, he whipped a tape measure and a large round magnifying glass from his pocket. With these two implements he trotted noiselessly about the room, sometimes stopping, occasionally kneeling, and once lying flat upon his face. So engrossed was he with his occupation that he appeared to have forgotten our presence, for he chattered away to himself under his breath the whole time, keeping up a running fire of exclamations, groans, whistles and little cries suggestive of encouragement and of hope. As I watched him I was irresistibly reminded of a pure-blooded, well-trained foxhound as it dashes backwards and forwards through the covert, whining in its eagerness, until it comes across the lost scent.

1. Sangen "Futatsu no Kodou to Akai Tsumi" av ON/OFF: Sangen   er brukt som intro i Vampire Knight (anime). 2. Sangen "Still Doll" av Wakeshima Kanon:  Denne sangen  er brukt som avslutning i Vampire Knight. 3. Flame of Recca: en manga jeg leste på telefonen og dermed leste på så fort jeg hadde ledig tid et sted, som f.eks når jeg ventet på noen eller sto i kø på butikken.  4. Sons of Anarchy: Ble endelig ferdig med denne serien. Serien er bra den altså, men det var godt å bli ferdig.  5. Naruto Shippuden Movie 7- "The Last": Jeg synes det var litt rart at denne filmen kom nå i sommer da anime-serien ikke er ferdig enda og denne filmen finner sted etter at anime-serien er ferdig, men samme det for den var jo så bra. Den var så bra at jeg måtte sen den to ganger :-D 6. Martna: For første gang på flere år var jeg hjemme når det var martna. Det er ikke så nøye med karuseller for min del, men det er koselig å henge med venninner, spise i...
