let's move on

Cleaning spree this year has moved up a month or so.Pretty much what I did end of December last year I've completed today.Achievement?more like a sense of restlessness nearing year 2010.Do detest my words.


I find myself reading faster too.And by that I mean a novel a week,and not as excruciatingly fast as Dhanya is.(one book in three hours).Maybe, it all depends on the book.I actually took the courage deep within me to buy a Nicholas Sparks book just out of curiosity."the Rescue" was a relatively old book,but i decided on it since "Dear John" or "The Last Song" wasn't available.Do take note I like to read books with movie-tie-in.But, honestly, after reading it, I felt okay.

It's a typical love story alright.Pretty predictable, but meaningful nonetheless.And,everyone needs a little predictable in their lives once in a while right?But safe to say, I doubt i
ll be buying any Nicholas Spark's for a long,long time.

-Though I know the serious consequences of me stating this, I've got to believe in it; I am dying to watch "HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3 " on TV this Saturday.*sounds of many gasping*.I can't seem to get over the fact that the HSM trilogy is one that I will never forget.But most of all, I would just like to keep the memories to allow me to reminisce our last year in High School.It just somehow reminds me,the end of high school is nigh.

Bye, November.



books,books,books

Consider the fact we lugged around pounds of books in boxes,then in our hands, I believe my hands came off easy.It creaks on every movement and there's this constant pain/pressure being exerted on it.But, having said all that, yesterday's trip to the Big Bad Wolf Books Sale was worth it. Every sore pain in the handsworth it

As I said before, I didn't know what to expect from a sale this huge.Mind me saying that all the books were at a minimum of 70% discounted rate.Woke up relatively early, gave myself a quick breakfast fix,and went to the LRT whilst waiting for Dhanya.9.00,she wasn't there yet; 9.15,she wasn't there yet;9.30,she wasn't there yet.At last, after a painstaking 40 minutes,she arrive with Hannah and Karin.Take note that only me, Dhanya and Karin went to the book fest,while Hannah and some others went to watch the not-so-anticipated Twilight saga: New Moon.They say we were missing on something really big, but we knew we weren't.And trust on us we weren't disappointed.

reaching Amcorp Mall, took some low-grade pictures with my phone[I miss my camera :( ] and went straight to the 3rd floor where the whole rendezvous was taking place.My first reaction to the whole event was purely palpitations and awestruck looks upon my face."Where did all this people come from?"At that moment i secretly wished that it wasn't largely advertised to allow us to gain benefit by the ease of the movement around the cramped area.Not to mention, the loads and loads and loads of book piled up against one and another gave me goosebumps enough to be "in the moment".

We were given boxes to put our books in.So, we decided to set a timeline.It was 10.00, and by 1.00 we've ought to be paying already.The trick was, to just take ANY book of your delight,and put it in the box, and finally sifting through your chosen pile of books.They categorised it all,from Romance to Fiction, Reference to Biography, less known writers to authors like Stephen King.They had it all.But I had to say our timing that day was really good.we Were lucky throughout.We arrived during a modest crowd,took our books,left it at the customer service,went to A&W to eat,and came back to a relatively empty surrounding.But things started to heat up, and before I knew it, I was standing in line to pay for a total of 20+ books. worst of all, in front of me were at least 90-120 people waiting in line,each of them having piles of books.

At first, all three of us thought that we were buying TOO MANY books,knowing that in our whole entire life we haven't exactly managed to fork out hundreds in Kinokuniya.But i overheard one girl saying that she was buying 45 books.45!That's a whole year worth of books.And with every book practically at a price of Rm 8, I wasn't surprised.So, this were my selection of books which i doubt I'll be finished by end of December.(Dhanya and Karin thought I'm making such a big fuss by putting this here,but hey, why not share it with the world right?)








Total(If bought in Kinokuniya)= RM419
Total(BIG BAD WOLF BOOKS SALE)= RM64

I am so dying to read each and every one, since i carefully picked each book by its content,the hidden meaning, and its undisputed cover(again,superficial).Now, I can proudly say I own hard cover books.haha

With the enormous amount of attendees that day, I was wondering" Why the heck do people come up with statistics saying that Malaysian don't read?"Whilst telling it to Karin, A lady came up to us and kiddingly said, "Only those in the KL do :) "

I guess that's all I have to say.But before Dhanya can gloat in her pride by being the one who told us about this event(Yes, Dhanya, Thank You!),I would just like to comment about the fact that almost in the end, I found this ridiculous book that I would have sighed on the sight of Dhanya buying it at a whopping o f RM 80 earlier this year.But, now I happily asked her to buy it at RM8 :D

And to think THEY said we were missing one hell of a movie.(I did watch it two days after,though)


post script: I would LOVE to join anyone on a trip there on the 2nd of December :)

you know you're a fan when...

you straight away switched on the radio right after your outing,tune to fly. fm just to listen to Taylor Swift guest-hosting in Ryan Seacrest's place.I even sat,and ate my dinner near the radio for her sake.


And now, the tiredness is kicking in.oh, how sore my leg is right now?Really Major.

BIG BAD WOLF BOOK SALE

Why the hell did a wake up freaking early?
Why did I even suggest to go at 9.00 am?

Haha.no matter.I still am excited to huff and puff at the BIG BAD WOLF BOOK SALE that I'll be attending in less than two hours.I don't know what to expect actually.




I hope and wish that they won't be any of the usual antics like any other sale would have.the pushing,running,and jumping? to get the cheapest book they they want would look amusing though.Sad that my camera's broken.but, wait, Dhanya has to have one,right? :) SO, if you happen to be going there today, do say hi!

Unfortunately, this was all I wanted to talk about just to fit in a measly post before I leave.But since I'm at it, I better post up some movie trailers which I'm dying to watch.(no,for the umpteenth time, it doesn't include New Moon)

  • The Blind Side-Sandra Bullock,Kathy Bates,and Tim McGraw.Hey, it must be good since it came in second at the US box office, just before New Moon which obviously got No.1


  • Also, all the movies Meryl Streep will be acting in; Julie and Julia, It's Complicated,etc.
  • "every body's fine"-Robert Deniro,Drew Barrymore


and so many more less crappy holiday movies.sadly, those above are undoubtedly low budget movies which never arrives at our shore.haih.where's the nearest pirated DVD store?i wonder.

Holidaze

Good morning bloggerhood,


I've been staying away from the blogging society for quite some time.But since i couldn't resist not having anything new being posted up, I shall force myself to blog today.So, lets see, Holidays just started,and I myself am as busy as ever,filling each day with non-stop activities.so, lets recap the days starting from Saturday,shall we?

wait, what did I do last Saturday?

god, i think i have a memory span that of a 5 year old.I'm pretty sure that's the day mum and dad went to Chiang Mai with the neighbours.Oh, yes, I had tuition in the morning, Mr. Balvir to be exact.Adilah picked me up since I didn't know there was any tuition and wasn't prepared,transportation wise.I haven't been attending phys tuition for 3 times already,which were all after the dreaded exam.Since it was the last class, i might as well go.Class was fun,but many people were absent though.

Sunday

I think i stayed at home the whole day,bored to death.i concluded that i needed to clean my desk.But it was sure a surprise that I even had that thought very early.It usually happens 7 -10 days before school re-opens, but everyone i know isn't particularly relaxed yet.They're all fidgeting to start preparing for SPM already.Threw practically everything,every single book,stationery on the floor since only then can I start cleaning it up.But frankly,i was overwhelmed by all the clutter.Cleaned a bit, and left to be continued the day after.

______________________________________________________________

Last week, Nabil, Ikhmal, and I went out to watch a movie and walk around Pavilion.Ikhmal's driver? brought us to the LRT station,and we left for Pavilion.Finally bought myself something from Forever21 after going there countless times.I have to say, I dare not to buy anything after that though.the purchase left my wallet with a big hole in it :) but I'm satisfied.


watched 2012 for the second time, but didn't enjoy it as much due to the annoying row of delinquents behind us,kicking and throwing popcorn at us.we were texting each other about how we felt like standing up and starting a fight, but kept calm thinking of the aftermath.After a while, I went out and called the security to shut them up.It did work for a while,but then they started again.haih.uncivilised idiots.

Monday

Felt energetic early in the morning.How so?because i went straight down to continue where i left off.But was disturbed(haha.joking) by some unexpected presence.Adilah,Ain,and Anis dropped by to say hi,since they were jogging in the area.we headed to the tennis court,where they aimlessly played tennis with the wall. :D

Went out with my sister and her friend, Intan.This was certainly one of the more tiring days since we went to KLCC,Pavilion,Sg. Wang, and Times Square by foot.there were many funny moments.I was fiddling with some stuff in S&J ,and in an attempt to ask for the details of a certain item, I looked around, and thinking that they were workers, i gleefully asked them.It turned out that they were workers alright, but for ESARLI, not S&J.But since they were wearing orange-coloured t shirts, i really didn't know how to differentiate them.We laughed our way out of the shop.

Kinokuniya has been a constant destination for me.I just got myself a new book and i can't wait to finish it.I've just read a few pages of it, but I'm liking it already.

came back, went to my sister's room, and got freaked out after hearing strange voices.By then, we(especially me) were so tired,and our legs felt lifeless.bathed, watched TV, and continued with the first and second episode of Grey's Anatomy season 6 :) eventually, i slept at 12.

Tuesday

The night before, Nabil invited me to go play tennis at KKLUB,and he even sms-ed me after i was fast asleep, to wake him up in the morning, knowing that he's a deep sleeper. Shortly after I woke up, i called, and called, and called again, but he didn't pick up.Instead, the call was diverted to his house phone, and I spoke to his maid and asked her to wake him up.Thankfully, he did.

We spent some time at KKLUB,playing like maniacs since there were no one around.

otw home, sis called and mentioned that mum would be home earlier than expected.So, as soon as i got home, I quickly changed and finished up the cleaning spree.Overall, I'm really happy with the result.



At night, I was on MSN, and practically typing as fast as i could since I was talking to 6 people at once.What more, i was on the laptop,and it wasn't really comfortable,to say the least.I just hope i don't get Carpal's Tunnel.


The night sky became darker, and i went to sleep.

and here i am.And since today is not over yet, I'll rather not blog about it .

-Sorry to say, i find Wizards of Waverly Place: the movie pretty amusing.It ACTUALLY had good characterizations.anyways, the series is one of the less crappy series on Disney channel.

-I SO have to decrease my phone bill.Can I switch off my phone all the way through December?
