How do you know you are reading a good book?

On the bus ride home I was reading the book I just started the other day, The Time-Traveler’s Wife by A. Niffenegger.

Well, I was so into the book, that I missed my stop. And not just one. I actually didn’t realize it, after the bus pulled out of the third stop after the one I was supposed to get off at. And conveniently, that also happened to be the last stop in my town, so I ended up having to go to the very last stop, and walk from there (it’s about 20 minutes walking distance from my house), since I had never been at any of the other stops. (I had been at the last one because it is also a stop for the train.) I wasn’t so happy because it was cold, and I expected to be home about half an hour earlier, but I guess it could have been worse.

Today classes started and I signed up for my Spanish exam, and then met up with Sheela. We just walked around, had lunch together and did some window shopping (I did make two small purchases though). At 1430 I had to work, and that’s about all I did today. Tomorrow I am having two classes, and I will stop by the DAI to see about my internship. Wednesday, no classes, just that Spanish exam, and Thursday internship (maybe), one class, work, and the AJY language partner get-together. Friday work, then something fun: hanging out with Petra, I think we might do a movie night, just hang out and relax. Then the weekend. My schedule this week does seem busy, even though classes only make up a small part of it.
As you can see I have been working a lot lately, but since I can use the money, I enjoy it. I will get in up to 40, maybe 45 hours this month.

Well, right now, I feel really tired. Understandable since I had been out since 0900 this morning. Typing really feels like an effort right now.
