these holidays, i've been borrowing quite alot from the library, and right now, i'm reading two of the books i borrowed, at the same time. they're BLINK BY MALCOLM GLADWELL, and READING PEOPLE BY JO-ELLAN DIMITRIUS AND MARK MAZZARELLA.

anw, those two books i mentioned are psychology books. =D

but you know what? i REALLY REALLY recommend you to read BLINK. it's soooooo damn nice and gripping! that book makes you think, and it can teach you skills too, like how to know whether newlyweds would still be happily married 15 years later, just by listening to a 3-minute (or even less) of their conversation of any random topic. it's so cool.

next, reading people. this book is about reading human expressions, and more. well, tyhe writer, jo-ellan is a judge of law, who, according to her, does alot of reading the behavior and expressions of defendants of the court. this book also helps you to improve your interactions with people. so it's really cool and helpful for the rest of your life.

so yup. try to get your hands on those books, especially BLINK.
=D
