en route; 
“...we should be remembered for the things we do. The things we do are the most important things of all. They are more important than what we say or what we look like. The things we do outlast our mortality. The things we do are like monuments that people build to honour heroes after they've died. They're like the pyramids that the Egyptians built to honour the Pharaohs. Only instead of being made out of stone, they're made out of the memories people have of you. That's why your deeds are like your monuments. Built with memories instead of with stone.”
― R.J. Palacio
it's crazy how a book can pierce your tear ducts so easily that you feel you can't put the book down, even though it was originally meant for the flight to melbs. i can't say this book has changed my life forever, neither can i say that i will live my life any differently after reading it, but hey. it's a good book, and it's ability to take me out of my world &place me into another 'dimension' so to speak, is still amazing to me.
countdown to melbs: 4 hours & 15 minutes! <3
