Dearest [livejournal.com profile] chatona, have the world bestest birthday! With tons of awesomeness and dancing and lovely boyfriend and cooperative thesis, and inspiration! *huuuugs*

I'm reading The accidental billionaires by Ben Mezrich atm. The Social Network is based on it and it's basically a fan fic. And not a bad one. Not the best, but it's certainly worth reading. Because the author surely ships them.

Examples:
But then, as now, Eduardo had been too busy chasing his dream to spend time thinking about the awkward kid in the corner. Certainly he had no way of knowing, then or now, that the kid with the curly hair was one day going to take the entire concept of social network and turn it on its head. That one day, the kid with the curly hair struggling through that prepunch party was going to change Eduardo's life more than any Final Club ever could.

or, totally flirting, while they're passing a library. (They've just exchanged a couple of sentences for the first time)

'I'm going to have sex in those stacks, I swear it's gonna happen.' [Eduardo said]

It was an old Harvard tradition – something you were supposed to do before you graduated. [...]

'Baby steps,' Mark responded. 'Maybe you should try getting a girl back to your dorm, first.'

Eduardo winced, then grinned again. He was starting to like this kid's caustic sense of humor.


and of course

Eduardo grinned to himself; in a matter of a few short weeks, he and Mark had become close friends. Even though they lived in different houses and had different majors, Eduardo felt that they had a similar spirit—and he’d begun to notice an almost strange feeling that they were supposed to be friends, even before they were. In that short time, he’d grown to really like Mark, had begun to think of him like a real brother, not just someone who shared a Jewish frat, and he was pretty sure Mark felt the same way about him.

Okayokay, I'll better shut up now.

My God, this picspam went out of control again. I'm very sorry.

And very random, but Boombox Beatsteaks' new album is fantastic! Go and buy it, everyone!
