epigram.

I think if was ever given the chance to meet an author(whether dead or alive),

it'd have to be Oscar Wilde.

My favourite quote has always been from him.

"I can resist everything except temptation."

And now after reading "The Picture of Dorian Gray", I'd have to say I agree with a lot of ideas put forth in the book.

"Nowadays most people die of a sort of creeping sort of common sense, and discover when it's too late that the only thing that one never regrets are one's mistakes."

~Lord Henry Wotton (The Picture of Dorian Gray)

inception

Ever wondered who your writing style resembled??

Well, there's *THIS WEBSITE* that can sort of tell you.

It's not really accurate cause the results aren't that consistent. But still it's interesting to see what comes up.

I analysed seven of my blog posts, and this is what came up.

Jame Joyce (author of Ulysses.) X3
Stephen King (author of Carrie, It, The Shawshank Redemption...) X2
Chuck Palahniuk (author of Fight Club)
Kurt Vonnegut (author of Harrison Bergeron)

Interesting combination no?

Wonder what it says about me though...
