~ goodbye 2012... welcome 2013 ~

my 222th post, to end 2012...

 

finished reading 2 books today - "84, Charing Cross Road" and "Laughter, the best Malaysian". that makes it 19 books that i've read this year (1 short of my target).

 

the whole journey this year has been great. some highs and lows here and there. but overall, i'm grateful for whatevr that has been presented to me in 2012. there r a lot that i've learnt from ppl around me, from d places i've been to, from things i've read. in d end, it all taught me to appreciate my life.

 

looking back, it has been an amazing year. i hv no regrets whatsoever. i know that everything is OK for me in 2012...

~ train ride: bittersweet memories ~

my 1st experience on d train started way back when i was 8. my dad took our family for a day ride to Ipoh, on a 3rd class coach (*gasp!!!). imagine naik tren 3rd class masa thn 80-an. it's basically a pick-your-seat ride (mcm Air Asia lk leh pick your seat), pick your seat where there's an empty seat. in other words, if xde empty seat, berdiri/mencangkung sepjg jln. i can't recall how long it took us to reach Ipoh train station. but once we reached there, we walked around (pusg2 keliling train station je), took pictures, then catched the next train back to KL. itu suatu ketika dahulu.

then came d time when i took d train from JB to KL. that was when i attended boarding school. d price for a 2nd class ticket fr JB to KL costs less than rm20. for 5 years, tiap kali nk cuti skolah, beli tiket train less than rm20? mewah!!! ye, subsidi kerajaan, maka bdk2 skolah cm kami dpt la beli tiket half price. alhamdulillah =) each time nk beli tiket JB-KL from pakcik Ahdan (wuuuu, still igt wehhhh!!!), dh pakat2 nk dok dgn sape walaupun dlm 1 koc tu nnt mostly kenkwn sndiri gk. (partner train ride, jgn nk buat2 xigt yg kita sll dok sblh2 dlm train, muahahaha). JB to KL jelah yg i naik train. KL to JB hrs la menggunakan khidmat kereta bapak sndiri cz...hmmm... stok makanan bermcm2 sgt nk bw blk hostel :p

lpstu, zmn semakin maju & we hv d KTM commuter smpi skrg. i prnh naik komuter smpi Seremban. dh pnah gk naik smpi Klang (ini serious lama). yg xpnah naik is komuter to Rawang.

i rs KTM dh de imprvmnt dgn d new coach. lbh besar. lbh selesa. tpnye, stil byk yg leh improve. cnthnye time management. dh jd cm bhn lawak tau sbnrnye yg org xlh nk pcaya komuter akn smpi kt platform on time. sedih kn? & kalau tren ada prblm, lmbt sgt kakitgn nk bertindak. my experience train komuter stranded dh xtau brp byk kali dh. plg xleh lupa, tren stranded tgh2 landasan. we were in d ladies' coach, tingkap x lh bkk (brp byk sgt kudrat pompn ada nk bkk tgkp). aircond xde. xde announcement. try being in an enclosed area for 5 minutes & u'll understand d feeling. ppl say that d secret is to remain calm. tp cz dh rmi yg rs cm xsng ati cz xde progress, i did d most logical thing - called whatever number written kt sticker yg ada tampal dlm coach tu & asked them in d most sarcastic way possible. i tried not to b sarcastic, tp xleh la. sepns2 keadaan dlm tren tu, pns lg ati i, haaaaa. lg 1 mslh, penumpang2 pn sma gk... dh ada koc wanita, yg lelaki2 pn nk masuk gk, knp? lpstu selamba je duduk & xnk bg pompn yg lbh memerlukan utk duduk. hepppp, abang... don't u know hw 2b a gentleman?

~ my ride from Kajang-KL Sentral-Klang ~

& we also hv d STAR & PUTRA LRT. i prefer these two drpd KTM komuter (sorry KTM. Rapid KL is doing a better job, i guess). skrg cm dh canggih sket especially kt stesen msjd jamek. dulu kalo br turun Putra kt msjd jamek & nk naik STAR, kna beli tiket lain (now they've introduced d chip, kna hati2 sket cz it's smaller than d card). or, if u r Touch&Go user like me, kna touch card kt reader ms nk kuar stesen Putra, then touch again kt reader ms nk g STAR pulak. skrg (i mean, starting thn ni) dh xyh. turun je Putra kt msjd jamek station, can straight take d STAR to whch ever station u wanna go. dh smpi destinasi, br touch your T&Go at d reader. kn lbh sng tu. xyh nk stress beratur byk2 kali utk beli tiket especially during peak hours. 

now that we r gonna hv our MRT, i hope it'll provide a better train service alternative to the users. org2 yg mmg gna train (esp pengguna2 komuter) sure look forward to hv d MRT, kn? ke, i sorg je yg look forward? anyways, if u wanna know more about Malaysia's MRT Project, u can go to MRT Corp's website.  they r having a "I need MRT because..." contest until 31 December 2012. stil smpt lg kalo nk join d contest, get d info here.

.i suka naik MRT kt Spore, hehehe.

"Do not read, as children do, to amuse yourself, or like the ambitious, for the purpose of instruction. No, read in order to live." - Gustave Flaubert

 

the Big Bad Wolf super-monstrous-super-craaaaazy book sale ended yesterday. alhamdulillah, i got the chance to be there with my two awesome cousins on the 2nd last day of the event. left my aunty's house around 9-ish so that we can reach MIECC around 10-ish. as ppl hv been commenting on BBW facebook page that getting to d parking space is quite a challenge, so better bergerak awal. when we reached there, still many parking spaces & dlm hall pn blom rmi sgt org. we thought that it's better to jln sndiri2 & once done, to meet somewhere near bunting yg tnjk kedai mkn. haiiihhh, meeting point pn nk kna dkt2 yg related dgn mkn. pfffft.

 

i brought greenbags with me & gv it to cousins as well. amik buku-bc synopsis-belek2 isi-masuk greenbag...amik buku-bc synopsis-belek2 isi-masuk greenbag. ada org yg angkut dgn kotak, which i know thp kekuatan lengan i xkn mmpu bertahan lama. ada org lk bw trolley bag. thn dpn la i bw trolley bag gk, hahahaha. ada org bw shopping bag IKEA. mna2 la, asalkn sng. i've read in a blog that u should just pick whatever that u like & do the sorting later. hasilnye, before sorting, i had 31 books in my 2 greenbags (senget kjp bahu i). after sorting, i only selected 21. tutup mata & say bye2 to those 10 titles, sobsobsob. b4 heading to the cashier, added another 3 books for mom. in total, i purchased 24 books for just rm178!!! hw can i not like it =)

 

cousin selected 12 books for herself. asal2nye lbh dr tu la. dh dkt nk queue utk byr, she selected only 12, TAPI 2 out of 12 tu dia cm sure x sure nak or xnk. i told her to just ambik & gv it to me. at d end, i got 23 books fr my 1st ever visit to BBW. waaahhhh, suka gillerrrr!!!

 

~ welcome home ~

 

actually, d 21 books are not mine alone. ada org kirim mntk tlg belikan gk. memndgkn nk cari specific author or title or genre agk susah sket cz buku dh bercampur aduk ats meja2 kt BBW ni, i picked and chose books that i hope are relevant to that person's interest. suprisingly, i found 1 book at BBW that has been in my "books i want list" for quite some time. saw it once in the newspaper, read the review & keyed in the ISBN in my phone. the normal price would be somewhere around RM30++ at any bookstores. lucky me, found it at BBW for just RM8 =)

 

~ now can cross this from my "books i want" list ~

 

d challenge now is that i dnt hv space in my cabinet to put in more new books. yg baru2 beli tp lom bc, sume dh bkn dlm almari tmptnye. npknye hv to sacrifice. in order to provide space for the new books, i gave my old books to cousins. 1 of them got 10, anthr 1 got 4. now i have more space to place my new books yg dh tersedia ada b4 BBW. buku yg beli kt BBW still dlm greenbag, mmg xleh nk buat apa la.

 

~ go meet your new owner, she's my cousin... byebye ~

 

.finished reading 1 book last night, now enjoying d 2nd book i bought fr BBW.

~ 5 years today ~

it has been 5 years today... 19 Dec 2007 to 19 Dec 2012.

 

 

i made my first pasport 5 years ago. tujuan buat pasport ms tu cz nk g Bandung, Indonesia for my office trip. since then, kebnykn trip i g Indonesia je... Bandung twice, Jogjakarta twice, Jakarta once. pasport i ada byk stamp from imigresen Indonesia, hahaha.

 

once my father told me, "pegi la tempat lain pulak... Hong Kong ke, mna ke". alhamdulillah, i dpt g Australia and Singapore. once my aunt told me, "asyk g Indon je. pegi la buat umrah". alhamdulillah, i dpt g wt umrah, and visited beautiful places (& meet nice people) in Syria and Jordan.

 

i can't tell which trip gave me the most memorable moment. to be frank, each trip has been special. d places i've visited... the people who went with me (walaupun ada trip yg i g sorg2)... the people i met during the trip... the pictures taken... crazy things done during the trip... all of it, semuaaaaaaanye special.

 

moment plg syahdu of course la when i went for umrah. moment plg berjimba, g Singapore. moment plg rs mcm sgt adult sekali, msa g Jogja to accompany my cousin for the oath taking ceremony. moment plg sgt suka hati berbelanja, ms g Bandung. moment plg rs mcm ratu, ms g Jakarta. moment plg rs mcm woahhhh super cool i survive sorg2, ms g Melbourne. moment plg rs mcm sgt educational visit, ms g Syria and Jordan =)

 

so, thank you allah for the good health given to me. with it i'm able to travel with ease. thank you allah for the people whom have accompanied me on each trip. with them i'm able to enjoy my time. thank you allah for the adorable people whom i've met during each trip. from them i learnt things that i've never known. thank you allah for the money that you have given me. with it, i'm able to travel, see all the things you've created, and buy things/souvenirs for family and friends and myself. thank you. thank you. thank you.

 

.should i renew my pasport for just another year, or 5 years straight?

~ book: The Magic ~

"I started out giving thanks for small things, and the more thankful I became, the more my bounty increased. That's because what you focus on expands, and when you focus on the goodness in your life, you create more of it. Opportunities, relationships, even money flowed my way when I learned to be grateful no matter what happened in my life."

Oprah Winfrey (B. 1954)

Media Personality and Businesswoman

(source: The Magic, p. 250)
 

 

Thank you "The Magic" for shedding lights on important aspect in our life, which is to practice gratitude. Thank you for putting some sense in me. Thank you for being an inspiration to me (and surely to others as well). Thank you, thank you, thank you.

 

"and (remember) when your Lord proclaimed: 'If you are grateful, I will surely increase you (in favor); but if you are ungrateful verily My punishment is severe.'" ~ Qur'an (14:7)

 

.take time to be grateful.

~ online business ~

i was blog hopping (& melompat from one website/facebook to another) dan terjumpa la kenkwn i yg skrg dh jadi usahawan berjaya. wowwww, hebaaattt!!!

 

to make one important decision, moving from the daily 9 to 5 job (or 8.30 to 5.30 job, like mine) to being a full time WAHM bkn la 1 decision yg mudah. now dh ada kemudahan online shop/online boutique/online this-and-that, which is good. sape yg btul2 bertekad, mmg bgs la wt online business fulltime. ada gk yg wt online business utk generate side income. x kesah la whether they r doing online business on full time basis or just to generate side income, yg pntg kna btul2 usaha gigih. & then yakin yg rezki tu dr Allah. siapa usaha, insyaallah dpt gnjarannya.

 

zmn i kecik2 dulu, ms zmn xde mnda2 online ni, i tlg my late aunty jual kuih kt pasar malam. i tlg jg gerai, bungkus2 kuih bila org nk beli. most of d time i dpt kuih free sbgi upah, hehehe. & then ms zmn skolah, i tlg my parents berniaga... business jual kuih bangkit utk generate side income for the family menjelang Hari Raya. disbbkn ms tu i ni xde skil sgt nk promote brg, so i wt krja2 blkg tabir jelah...prodctn line... tukg bungkus-membungkus & packing2. nk jual, kita serahkn pd yg pakar. alhamdulillah rezki jual kuih ms tu kira ok.

 

now, bila dh de mnda2 online, i tak la pulak de creativity utk menjual apa2. setakat tlg2 promo business by family/friends jelah through this blog. hakikatnye, smpi skrg pn i stil lg xbrp ada skil nk promote brg =)

 

so, here's wishing congratulations to Ernie on being a businesswoman now. creative dia ni. sila la sila go to her blog to see some creative works. totemo kawaiii des =) or, di zmn semua org ada facebook skrg ni (while i hv yet to create my own facebook account, hehehehe), u can visit her facebook by clicking this link.

 

.smoga allah tambahkan rezki utk semua org yg buat business.

"we make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give" - Winston Churchill

recently, there was a talk being organized at our office about what's happening in Palestine and Gaza. sambil2 dgr talk, d speaker who is from Viva Palestina Malaysia group tnjk gmbr2 yg diorg amik while they were at Palestine. looking at those pictures, i can't help but felt sedih cz xtau cmne nk jd dgn nasib diorg... tanah sndiri asyk kna bom je, mna lg nk lari. Viva Palestina Malaysia joins the other volunteers from other parts of the world to help people of Palestine, especially kids and the women, to hv a better life, albeit temporarily.

if u hv any intention to help the Palestine people, u can do so by being a volunteer and/or making donation seikhlasnye. Viva Palestina Malaysia has set up an account if you would like to donate cash. u cn get the info from here.

another organization whereby u cn donate cash is Mercy Malaysia.

 

u can decide where your donation should go to. at the moment, there's 9 different funds that you can choose from to make your donation, including MERCY Malaysia Flood Relief Fund, Syria Relief Fund, Palestine Relief Fund, and Yasmin Ahmad Children Fund. if you want to donate to MERCY Malaysia via online banking, u'll b able to do so by following the 3 simple steps in their page. and if u haven't noticed, "All cash donations are tax deductible (applicable only to donations made within Malaysia)" has been circled there.

and apart from making new friends, i also meet people whom i've already known. they r those who have been helping me in my work... or, should i say, have-been-forced to help me in my work, ngehehehe...

get a nice, simple meal. once it's served, be really thankful to Allah. b4 u leave d restaurant, get the cashier/restaurant owner to give u discount as it's your birthday =)

 

stay at a nice hotel & pamper yourself while u r there. it's your birthday & u deserve to b pampered (though u r staying there on work-related agenda)

 

.alhamdulillah.

~ Life of Pi ~

went to watch a movie today, despite not feeling well earlier in the morning. two & a half hours b4 my friend was supposed to fetch me at home, i went to see d doctor. very bad sore throat yg menyumbang ke arah earlier symptoms of going to hv a fever. as i'm leaving for penang in 2 days time, Doc tlh bermurah hati bg d complete set of d fever-flu medicine. hah, amikkk!!! bekalan ubat ke Penang dh lgkp, so don't need to worry anymore in case i catch anothr round of sore throat/fever/flu while i was there...eh, kita ni nk berckp psl movie yg i tgk siang td, not d set of medicine yg Doc bg kt i. pfttt.

 

ok, sila la g tgk "Life of Pi" now showing at d cinema. u can read all d positive feedback if you google the title. 1review that i like can b found here. to me, d movie is d combination of Titanic+Narnia+Cast Away+pirates of d caribbean+eat,pray,love. 1 word to summarize it - GREAT =)

 

poster courtesy from this site

 

i adalah org yg tak pernah tgk movie in 3D. ye, saya begitu tradisional (booooo) & getting to watch this movie in 3D, GREAT tu dh jd ganda 1000. d whole story telling from d beginning when Pi was small & digelakkn by his friends (go watch this movie if nk tau knp his friends sll gelakkan dia) smpi la kpd his experience alone in d lifeboat with just a Bengal tiger being his companion (nama harimau tu cm nama manusia), all of it were done fantastically.

 

apart from most reviews ckp citer ni best, d reviews also suggest that u watch this movie in 3D. basically, mmg berbaloi to watch "Life of Pi" in 3D. sila tgk.

~ pentingnya penjagaan mata ~

i refrained myself from connecting to kehidupn alam maya from home since jumaat kerana i dh thp nk termuntah ijau mengadap laptop dan gigih siapkn krja kt rumah, WALAUPUN cuti. ye... mmg nk muntah ijau kalo kna hadap nearly 4000pages of Word document, harus sorting the list cz list tak sprti yg dihrpkn & do some editing here and there to reduce d number of pages. mmg nk muntah ijau kalo dh menghadap laptop dr bgn tido (lps mndi & brkfst & settlekn urusan rumah) smpi la ke mlm2 buta... bgn dr katil hanya utk g mkn, minum, solat, mndi, g toilet, buat stretching kaki sket & then continued to look at the screen for the nearly 4000pages document. i sprti org yg sgt x terurus. my mom pn xbrani nk kaco i once i dh dok bertapa dlm gua ats katil ni.

 

bila dh terrrrrrlalu lamaaaaaa sgt mengadap laptop (at home) and PC (in the office), finally on friday (after submitted document yg xbrp nk siap tu) i made my weekend resolution utk tidak mengadakan sebrg connection dgn alam maya until Monday. (**and also utk qadha tido cz i've been sleep deprived for several days as a result of kerja yg i kna settlekn tu). apart from exhaustion, d other reasons y i decided to refrain myself from getting connected dgn kehidupan alm maya adalah krn:-

 

coordination between my brain, eyes & fingers adalah xbgs

i kept on tersilap type when i sent messages to my frens. silap eja la, tertggl perkataan la. jenuh nk delete memnjg. brain transmitted different message but my fingers pressed different letters. so, i thought, sudah cukup sudah...berehat adalah lbh baik.

 

i saw things differently

org ckp, kalo mengadap lamaaaa sgt kt laptop or PC xbgs utk kesihatan mata. mata jd cpt letih. mata cpt berair. mata cpt berpinar. apa segala la yg org ckp psl keadaan kesihatan mata yg xbaik if trlalu lama sgt menghadap d screen. terbuktinye mata i mmg letih ya amat beberapa hari tu. there's 1 giant billboard psl melancong kt Jkrta kt tepi jln sepjg highway Sg Besi yg berbunyi "tertarik, inilah masanya". however bila npk that giant billboard, mata i lk captured the message differently...

~ all-time favourite activity ~

"the greatest gift is a passion for reading" - Elizabeth Hardwick

 

i love to read, am passionate about it, tp i only read books/materials yg i suka, yg i pilih. i hv never been forced to read when i was small. thus, the passion comes naturally 'cz i leh pilih whtever i like. the only limitation is that we were only allowed to buy English books/comics. takpe, xde hal. makanye, "Dennis the menace" comics, Archie & Jughead, Anne of Green Gable and Mr. Pink Whistle's Party... those are among the titles that i read when i was small.

 

primary school... secondary school... after SPM... masih lg cntinue bc buku citer. i can still remember, while waiting for my SPM result, evry week g kedai buku, pilih 1 buku citer & completed in 1 week. d following week g lg, beli lg 1 & abih in 1 week. d following week g lg & beli lg 1 buku. semua guna duit BAPAK, bkn duit sndiri (mna de duit sndiri pn). by d end of the month, jst realized that my father had to spend nearly rm150 utk i sorg, in a month, just nk beli buku citer bg memenuhkn ms2 lapang i smntara nk tgg result SPM. tu lah, i nk krja parttime x dibagi, hehehehe.

 

ms matriculation & zmn undergraduate... still bc buku citer. nk exam pn menyelit2 bc buku citer. konon2 nk bg release sket semak kpale byk sgt nk kna hapal. kalo x bc buku citer, i main game. kalo x main game, i bc buku citer. kalo study, gigih kemain bc & HAFAL notes networking, database, coding for sbjct programming. ada la ketidaksukaan membaca notes ms tu sbb related dgn study. jgn tiru perangai sebegini. utk nk lulus exam, xleh xsuka bc buku teks/notes...dgr ckp i ni, hehehe. 

 

ms wat Masters... hmmmm... hobi bc buku citer kna compete dgn bc JOURNAL ARTICLES...bc RESEARCH PAPERS... bc GUIDELINES... bc mnda2 ilmiah yg ms tu rs cm "waaahhh hbt btul pemikiran diorg ni wt research hebat cenggini. tp awat aku susah sgt nk absorb, nk phm & nk wt summary ni?" nangesssss!!! zmn study ms wat Masters penuh dgn titisan airmata. tp main Zuma tgh2mlm ms septtnye bc articles, xpulak le nanges kn, muahahaha. wt Masters fulltime & krja parttime sbnrnye xde la sesusah wt Masters parttime & krja fulltime. & i salute tinggi ex-opismet yg buat Masters parttime ms dia krja dgn i dulu. mna nk bc notes... nk buat assignmnt... nk g klas lps krja... nk bc buku citer lg... huhuhuhu. xkesah la study on fulltime or parttime basis, yg pntgnye xde menda senang when it comes to studying. so, bertahan jelah (wpn buku2 citer ms tu kna compete dgn mnda2 len).

 

ms dh krja... bc buku citer kt umah time sambil menyambil tgk tv, tgh mkn or b4 nk tido. on weekends/holidays, lps subuh dh xleh tido tu menyambung le bc buku citer smpi tetiba je buku terlps dr tgn cz dh tertido. nk bc buku citer during office hours, mmg cnfirm le x dpt. bc menda2 len yg terjumpa2 time browsing the internet tu, adalah jugak. tp takut gk nt jd addicted, pdhal dah mmg sah2 le krja mmg xabis2. bnda paling sengal nk bc adalah bc manual/guidelines/technical stuff yg fuhmakaiii memerlukan kesabaran & full concentration & analytical thinking (some of it) smpi kekadang lh buat dahi i berkerut.

 

it's definitely THE greatest gift that i hv this passion to read, even though i'm being selective of the books/materials that i love to read. however, with our nature of working with books in the library, ppl expect us to read&know more than d rest. oleh itu, haruslah i memantapkan diri & lbh byk bc lg. kna gigih berusaha memupuk minat. tu blom masuk bab nk kna pupuk kesabaran bc menda2 technical yg related to the job (*sigh*). if there's one magic wand that can transform me to be someone who's passionate to read about almost everything, that would b fun-tastic =)

 

.bc qur'an jgn lupa.

~ kedai plg best sepjg zmn ~

not many people can undrstnd how i can spend time berlama2 dlm bookstore. well, it's because i was raised that way (hahaha). i started reading at a very young age... by that i mean very, very young. my parents used to bring my sister & i to bookshops. we were free to belek2/pilih storybooks, colouring books, comics, stationery, art supplies, etc2 that we wanted. masa tu kecik lg. so xpikir pn la parents ni sure menggelabah nk kuarkn duit cz anak2 diorg berlama2 dlm kedai buku tu & dh pilih mcm2 sgt brg utk beli.

 

bila dh besar, br le pikir - "parents aku dulu krja keras nk cari duit utk ank2. kitorg lk asal masuk kedai buku, sure nk lama2. lpstu nk beli buku mcm2. kesiannye diorg". tp, kesedaran cmtu dh terlambat, nasik dh jd bubur... habit dr kecik dh membw ke besar. i mean, habit dok dlm kedai buku lma2 la (bkn habit gna duit mak bapak nk beli buku). smpi skrg i can sit for hours in a bookshop tnpa rs bersalah walau sikit pun. eh, silap... kalo i TERbw masuk kwn yg xbrp sgt suka nk dok lma2 dlm kedai buku, br la rs bersalah, hehehe.

 

msa wt matric & de 1 semester tu i amik kelas English je (1 semester amik English semata), rs bosannye kehidupan. trlbh rileks sgt. so, pnah la dgn roommate & her friend spent time dok 3jam dlm MPH. spent 3jam dlm kedai buku bersma kwn ms dh masuk uni cm agak rare case bunyinye. bila dh wt degree lk, smtimes g kedai buku kecik yg sll jual buku 2nd hand tu. kalo g kedai cmni xlh nk lma2 sgt cz kedai kecik & we r spoilt with too many books to choose from. so, kna wt pilihan buku dgn pantas. if not, asyik berlaga dgn org. 

 

i went to 3 different bookshops in a day last weekend, just to kill time =) was with my friend who have d same interest/habit. dlm 1 hari tu, we went to MPH, Popular & also Borders. paling lma kt MPH. paling sekjp kt Borders. & d following day, we went to Popular lg (at anothr mall lk) & berlma2 gk dlm tu. xla smpi 1 jam rasanye, tp puas la menjamu mata & gigih menahan nafsu nk beli mcm2. nanges. T___T

 

terima kasih bookstores in malaysia. masing2 dh upgrade & provide people like me & my friend (& a lot more out there), yg ada this weird connection with bookstores, with nice ambience. best dok dlm bookstore skrg. aircond sepoi2 bahasa je, jst nice if nk duduk lma2 smpi 5jam dlm kedai tu, hehehe. siap ada caffe, sofa gedabak cm kt umh utk nk dok lepak bc buku, mcm2 activities for d public, etc2. & not forgetting d fact that bookshops skrg jual byk sgt cute stationery. haiihhh, hw can i not go crazy bila masuk kedai buku? now, we also hv more of those kedai buku yg jual buku at cheaper price. yes, books in this country adalah sedikit mhl than books sold abroad. tp that shouldn't b an excuse to stop u from reading.

sedikit nsht (based on experience), don't force ppl to read books/materials that they dont like. read whtever that's interesting to YOU, not things that others find interesting. tp adik2, kalo kna bc buku skolah cz nk kna pass SPM, takleh la xsuka. hehehe.

 

.hv a productive day ahead.

 

~ kisah zmn kecik2 ~

it's my 200th post & i wnt to share smthg i've just read from a book that i bought last weekend. my weekend sucks was filled with terrrrrrlalu byk aktiviti perabih-masa-tak-tentu-hala plus makan-dan-makan-dan-makan-lagi-dan-minum-dan-minum-lagi plus membeli-belah-tak-ingat-dunia, termasuk beli 3 books & 4 bookmarks menarik. uhuuuuu...bertabur duit aku T__T

it's a book that compiles childhood stories by a Malaysian animator/artist. most of the stories/jokes buat i sengih&gelak sorg2 ms bc buku ni on d train. cnthnye citer ni:-

 

 

i sent d above story to a fren & got a reply - "letak byk2 pun lg bagus". my intention is just to share something that can make ppl laugh or smile, like i did. but i can't give all d contents here, nt i lk yg xpasal je kna sue. isssshhh... tak naaaaaaakkkk. sape nk rs gelihati, or nk senyum sorg2 in public while reading this book, or nk gelak guling2 ats katil b4 tido, sila beli buku ni & bc ye. sokonglah hasil kerja buatan Malaysia. yeaaahhhhh!!! (*yg jauh kt seberang laut pn kna sokong, ngehehehe*)

~ outing: Kizsports & Gym ~

hi, all... my name's Haris (i hope this aunty get d right spelling for my name).

 

 

ye, saya tau saya cute. tp saya bkn nk cerita tentang ke"cute"an saya. saya nk citer ni, aritu saya g jln2 dgn maklong saya, kak amani & lg 2 org aunty ni. ms tu parents saya ada hal, so saya being a good son meng"offer" diri utk kuar jln2 dgn maklong saya. eh, chooooppp... maklong saya yg sbnrnye offer diri nk bw saya jln2 la, hahaha... kitorg g satu indoor playground kt Great Eastern Mall. nma tmpt ni Kizsports & Gym. nsb baik maklong saya bw g tmn permainan indoor. kalo outdooor, gegegege.... abis la saya kna sinaran UV.

 

~ ini Kizsports & Gym ~

 

1st skali, saya g main kt pool besaaaaaaarrrr!!! ada byk colourful ball dlm pool ni. rmi je yg nk main dgn saya. tp diorg ni ganas ya amat, huhuhu. pnjt2 lpstu terjun dlm pool. saya pn jd cm x selesa, maklong saya lg la x tenteram cz takut bdk2 melompat2 ni kerjakan saya. rupanye kitorg dh tersilap tmpt main daaaa... pool tu utk bdk2 lbh dr 2 thn. bdk2 kecik cm saya ni ada pool lain yg lbh kecil & comel & lbh slmt.  

 

 

sblh dgn pool utk bdk2 bwh 2 tahun cm saya ni ada la tmpt main yg lh pnjt2. apa eh nma permainan tu? hmmm... saya tau nma dia kalo utk org dewasa cm maklong saya - ROCK CLIMBING. tp cz Kizsports & Gym ni bkn utk org dewasa, jd nama dia bkn le ROCK climbing. takpelah, saya pn xreti lg nk pnjt mnda ni. so, kita ignore je permainan ala2 ROCK climbing ni wt msa ni.

 

~ saya xreti nk pnjt ala2 rock climbing ni ~

 

kt cni, mcm other playgrounds, ada gk gelongsor. tp saya ni bdk2 bwh 2 thn. nk main gelongsor utk org besar cm gmbr kt bwh ni, sprti xselamat je T___T

 

 

rupanye, ada gk gelongsor utk bdk2 kecik mcm saya. yeayyyy!!! (*takyah ngs lg). gelongsor saya ni lg best, leh alih2 & agkt pndh mna2 saya nk. so, maklong saya telah meletakkan gelongsor ni kt dlm pool kecik utk saya main td. seronok woooooo!!! naik gelongsor, masuk pool, naik gelongsor, masuk pool. hehehe...

 

 

lpstu, adalah pulak satu rumah ni, kaler kuning. saya rs cm dok dlm castle je, cntk sgt!!! muat2 lk dgn size saya. so, saya pn amik la byk2 bola dr pool kecik td & bw masuk dlm castle ni. lpstu saya main sorg2. xde pun org kacau saya. waaaah, bestnye dpt dok dlm castle cenggini =)

 

 

tetiba, saya ternpk la pulak satu permainan ni...ada gmbr mulut kucing kt dpn permainan ni. saya pn nk explore. so, saya pn masuk dlm mulut kucing tu. aunty kata, mainan ni nma dia TEROWONG. whatever la, aunty. 

 

 

oh ye, kalo kwn2 ada parents yg agak paranoid (kwn2 tau ke mkna paranoid?) dgn keselamatan anak2, ckp kt parents kwn2 tu "wahai ibu & ayah, jgn risau. haris ckp, kt tmpt ni ada kakak2 yg sll jg & pusg2 & make sure kitorg sume slmt". a'ah ye btul. kt tmpt ni insyaallah slmt. semua org bila nk masuk kt tmpt indoor playground ni kna pki stokin. saya pn pki, maklong pn pki, kak amani pn pki & aunty yg lg 2org tu pn pki stokin. saya pn xtau for what reason kna pki stokin, tp i believe it's for our own safety.

 

~ kakak yg jg tmpt ni pn suka lyn saya ~

 

all-in-all, tmpt ni best sgt!!! saya rs nk dtg lg. tgk la, nt saya pujuk ibu & ayh saya bw saya dtg cni. kak amani ckp, dia nk main byk2 kali smpi 6 kali sbb dia xpuas main. mcmtu la dia betapa bestnye tmpt ni. dkt Kizsports & Gym ni pn ada jual food. so, parents takyah risau psl mknan. kak amani mkn nugget, tp saya kn bdk bwh 2 thn mna leh mkn nugget. parents saya dh bekalkan food utk saya, so maklong suapkn food yg parents saya bekalkan tu je.

 

kalau kwn2 nk buat birthday party kt cni pun boleh. lpstu leh ajak kwn2 lain attend birthday party tu. saya tak tau la pulak brp tmpt ni charge if parents nk organize birthday party kt cni. msa kitorg dtg aritu, ada org wt birthday party kt cni. tp cuma bdk2 yg dijemput je leh join birthday party tu.

 

ok la, tu lah dia citer saya g jln2 & main kt Kizsports & Gym. kalo kwn2 rs boring dok umah, ajak la parents g Kizsports & Gym kt Great Eastern Mall ni. kalo kwn2 surf internet & nk cari psl Kizsports & Gym ni, leh click je kt sini utk dpt some information. ok, saya end dgn 1 pose menarik ye, hehehehe...

 

saya cute, tu fakta. tp sexy kah saya? =)
