im currently reading Tolstoy's War n Peace.

Where can finish in a week ?

I read Facebook and Flipboard everyday, though dead trees are a nice option once in a while...
The last dead tree I bought was ISBN 046504879X and before that ISBN 812969707...

I notice from ure reading addict, everytime you start a sentence in this forum u begin with capital letter and organized

To be honest, TS opening post was littered with grammatical errors. It could be due to nerves, reminiscing back "her" crush on the high school jock.

TS ,I want to ask. How do you know the average of Kopitiam's average monthly salary since you mentioned that you earn one fifth of it ? Besides that, how certain are you that the value is correct ?

Let me analyse a little bit of your requirements:

1. Reading 2 books a week is possible if only at weekends. That means not much time for leisure like watching movies , or going to the beach and outdoor activities. So,  homely but boring kind of guys or kind of nerdy type is your cup of tea ?

2. Most guys around 20+ ~ 30 years of age are busy working on weekdays including overtime or part time business to buy car and house before getting married. So not much time left for reading.

3. You are a librarian and I guess you need to work according to shifts ? I myself work in a private university too albeit not a librarian myself, and at my workplace, librarians work on Saturdays and Sundays ( half day for Sundays) .At my place during exam month, the library closes at 11pm.  So you have time for dating ?

Conclusion is based on your requirements, how do you have time to date guys ?

Just my 2cents of thoughts ...

You will bored most guys to death even on the first date.

Oh you and your silly little imagination.  

Dah I dunwan to derail her thread. You have fun there exaggerating and imagining shit, okay!

TS post pic first. talk so much for what

She is not interested in dating guys, she is merely interested in posting an opinion from her high horse. Two books a week is as vague as saying I only date girls that eat two meals a day.

If she is as big of a lover of books as she mentioned, she should know that one absolutely would not power through a book for the sake of finishing a book. I've just coming off a re-reading of Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions, and at a thing 300 odd pages have taken me a week or so. Some of the chapters required an effort to digest and the re-reading made me appreciative of it in another way that I totally missed the first time around.

She also failed to look at the kind of books one is reading to fulfill that two books criteria. I finished some easy stuff like Salmon Fishing in the Yemen and Gaiman's Graveyard Book in about 6 hours or so, respectively, when I went to Japan. I still struggle with Dostoyevsky, to the point that I needed a break from it before I dive back into it again.

no F given

I read exactly 2 books per week sometimes lesser due to basketball training.

I'm a big fan of Dan Brown where I've started to read The Da Vinci Code , Angels and Demons , and the latest Inferno .

I also read mortal instrument series .

But for now I'm reading The Da Vinci Code 10th anniversary edition because I love it so much. I will read top gear/Cars/motor trader/sports zone every week.

I'm 6"1 tall with my foot size of 11 (UK)

I live in a decent house around Kota Kemuning , I play basketball at the lakeside basketball court weekly, I have a little bit of moustache + a permanent mark on my face below my left eye due to chicken pox.

I have no washboard-like abdomen nor a mouse on my arms.

But I gotta tell you a fact that ...
...
I'm just 16 years old

haha

Thanks for sharing, hopefully you will meet your dreamed man soon.

For me in the past, I always like and chase girls with short hair and a bit tomboyish and cheerful attitude. But as I grow older, finally I realized such preference is just not enough, there's something that is much more important such as his inner ability to empathy and to love.

So, finally I gave up on my superficial requirements and start pursuing the latter.

It's good to have a preference, but if you meet such a good person but does not fit into your very specific model, then it will be a loss. But if you can gamble the years of your life to hunt such man and turn out to found one that perfect, then maybe you will be happiest women on your own world.

Well it's not like an over the top requirement compare to that singapore girl but what about those who acquire knowledge trough video? 1hr video a day about science, history, animals, psychology etc trough youtube .... ya shouldn't dismiss other channels in exchange for intelligence ya know...

First show us ur picture to see how qualified u are to be our dates and if none or ure not even close to our taste, go n dai then, tq..........

If it is watered down to that definition, then anyone who watches a show, a movie, browsing a /k/ thread could possibly qualify for it. Newsweek and Time aren't even interesting anymore, their article mumble on incoherent points simply to generate 'shock', hoping it will boost their subscription. You would be better off asking your new SO to read The Guardian or The New Yorker. If you want a more relevant Nat Geo, get him to look at The Atlantic's In Focus instead (http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/).

Books is just another form of informative entertainment, I'd dread to be with someone who loves books to the extend they give no chance to other media's, or worse, any other lifestyle.

The main reason for the two books

Is to identify men with curiosity

And are interested in intelligent pursues

Should I meet someone who fits the bill though not with books

I don't mind binning the guidelines

Though books should take precedence simply because of my interest and job

It would be tough to spend time with people who can't stand the sight of books

Or people who don't understand my need to be silent and reading

wow, 4k a month (/k salary = 20k), never knew librarian earns that much, how can i get a job at ur place ts??

Then again, you did say this

The Republic of Thieves (Gentleman B-tard, #3) by Scott Lynch. Can I get a part-time job at your place? 

are you charmed by the way your man reads his book or by the knowledge he gains from reading a book?

TS think us no need work read book 24 hour
