Owh, kenapa aku lama tak update blog? Sebab aku lebih jatuh cinta dengan membaca dari menulis (please noted perkataan lebih tu), aku rasa past months ni aku dah habiskan lebih 21 buku (counting sampai subuh tadi) be it crime, thriller, history or fantasy. Aku baca semua, and ada satu stage tu I sleep and in my dreams I see words. Aku try to slow it down by not starting a new book when I already finished sebab once I start I will hook up dan mulalah aku membaca sambil satu tangan goreng nasi atau satu tangan suap roti. If only Im as this enthusiastic bila study muahahaha..
Sekarang aku tenggelam dalam Lincoln Rhyme series by Jeffrey Deaver, already read 6 of his series. Awesome! Plot yg pantas and twisting! I love it, aku rasa this one even better dari my Kay Scarpetta collection. Anne dah promo Mr Deaver to me dari last year lagi, I hold myself from starting sebab aku taknak start my crazy obsession trying to find the books and burn my pocket. Sampailah April lepas, my first visit to Sunday market, I found The Bone Collector, the first dalam Lincoln Rhyme series for 2 dollars. For me, bila aku start my reading frenzy, and I start it with the first book lagi it give me a better kick, macam I need to finish it. The same applies to movies as well. Sebab tu aku into Harry Porter movie lepas diorang release goblet of fire, sebab aku dah marathon Harry Porter sama dengan Wafri (more to dia bermain2 dengan chopstick as magic wand dan aku je layan movie sorang2 sambil pura2 mati bila kena curse). Tiba2 aku rasa macam aku ada weird obsession to do things in order, which sebenarnya tak cause im the lousiest in organizing things.
Aku mula part time work aku once a week, job that people seems to disgust and look down too. I don’t know bout you but seems to me that what my family thinks. Hee, one of them also give me silent treatment till I quit. I’m kind of happy with the arrangements actually and the family is lovely. It fit my time and somehow it also feels like a challenge to me. I feel humble, it’s like I’m a princess and suddenly disguise as maid, and it thrills me. That kind of feeling. Been trying to explain that to my family but they are so worried bout my safety etc etc, other reasons seems not rational. Probably not rational too, probably I’m the one who being rebellious here. Doing something just for the sake of to go against. Please pardon my inappropriate rambling. Hee.
Talking about work, it bring me to $$. Since my plan to go to China late this year, I ve been looking to buy a new camera. Of course I can buy the 199 one, with 7mp. That is good enough. But somehow I want something else, I want a DSLR though I don’t know whats the difference between aperture and ISO settings. Trying to set white balance on lab microsope already give me headache, and complicated camera will certainly not suit me at all. But I want it, like really want it. So I bought it last Monday, and probably get it on Friday. I’m excited, tapi bila aku fikir, owh the money could better spent on something or someone else aku rasa tak best and mulalah my guilt haunts me. ...
I have a car now too. Nick gave his’s to me, I named it LAU, as tua in mandarin, isn’t it Miin? For car age, this bloke here is a senior citizen. But it still running, so I’m not complaining. Holden Camira, 1984. Bryce from my floor jokingly said, ‘Wow, station wagon, planning to carry any coffin soon?’ Yea right Bryce. Owh that’s a thought. I should apply a part time job at funeral house then, what’s the word for it? I forget, not crematorium, something else. Now with Mal, Joslin and Nick gone, the crusty group (as we named it) is really quiet. Hee kind of missing Nick too, despite all the arguments, he is a nice friend. One of my closest here. Going out crabbing won’t be the same after this. He is chatty but in a nice kind of way. A must topic for him is Roman Empire. He so fascinated about it and just need to let the load of information out. See how you appreciate people when they are not around anymore?
Hari tu aku dan Miin pergi tengok wayang dengan Anne dan anaknya. We arrived like 5 mins before the movie start, I q for jajan and asked Miin, eh Anne dah beli tiket. Miin angguk. When they are checking tickets, aku tunjuk Anne. Dalam wayang, Miin tanya, eh nak kena bayar berapa? I said tanyalah Anne. Turn out Anne tak beli pun tiket kitorang and Miin nodded for the jajan I bought. Muahahaha. Nasib la wayang kat sini takde seat number tau. So wayang free that day :p
What else that I didn’t update?
I’ve been together with orang sebelah benua for 7 years. How these years change us? For me certainly he highly influences me, small thing can easily make me happy, little things can easily make me upset. We are more mature I guess, more in love than ever. Glad he is still here with me, thank you luv.
My pendekar is coming back this Sunday, my oh my 6 months already passed. He going to go after me for all the chapters I promised before he went to Spain. Hee oki doki pendekar. Owh study wise, aku dalam writing stages dengan labwork berbaki satu lagi which aku tak leh nak sambung yet sebab out of season.
So how’s this for 3 months update? :p
