Today we were at the library during free block. Crystal lamented the pointed lack of non-cheemdeep books in our school library (all we have are obscure, filled with literary meaning books.) and got extremely pissed when she couldn't find a single Princess Diaries book to read. She kept muttering to herself "CAB! CAB!" and checking all the "C" shelves over and over again, until Xinyuan pointed out to Crystal that "B" came after "A" and checking the "CAA" shelf would be rather pointless.

I spotted a book with "CAB" on it, and I pulled it out, but it turned out to be the book titled "The Joshua Tree", which I mentioned in some previous post either here or on anotherentrance. We all convulsed into silent fits of laughter in awhile, since (no offence) Joshng DOES indeed have the height and general build of a tree.

In a bid to seem literary, I decided to try reading that book while Crystal indulged in some good old Harry Potter.

However, perhaps because I am not a Joshua, I was confused as soon as I read the first page. Apparently the Joshua Tree was narrating, and it was in... JoshuaTree-ese, which being not a Joshua Tree, I couldn't understand at all ._.

Also, as is the case with most cheemdeep literary books, it did not have accompanying pictures except for random aboriginal drawings in the margins. I stopped reading after page 30something, because 1. I couldn't understand it at all. o.O Maybe you have to be a Joshua or a Joshua Tree to understand the book. 2. Without a proper image of a "Joshua tree", I kept having disturbing images of a grinning green (LOL) Joshng parading through my mind. 3. Free block was up.

So in order to rid myself of the Joshng-as-a-tree images, the first thing I did when I got home was to power up my laptop and google "Joshua tree". SURPRISINGLY, there really IS such a thing as a Joshua tree. It is apparently some furry cute desert plant thingy. o.O

But for some reason the green Joshng is still parading through my mind D: Must be all the bad influence lar.
