Lydia Teh is being generous

Those who are in the knows of our local authors... well should know Lydia Teh. She's the one who recently wrote Honk! If you're Malaysian.

I have to be honest that I didn't read the book. I was reading the interview she gave earlier.. to NST or Star or.. tah.. and got tad bit envious that she are able to achieve a dream so many can't.. getting a book published, print and quite a lot of people buying it. Mine.. I am too poor. Haha.. Ok ok.. I have a tendency to read fantasy and children books and those books that I love to buy and lovingly add in my ever growing collection. I was eyeing her book and also those Adibah Amin installments and sighing my lack of money and my ever expanding list of book collections to be bought.

But this post is about the latest contest she is throwing!

So are you tight for money? Scrounging in the garbage can for food? Or are green with envy whenever you see someone picking up a book that you had been drooling for weeks (but can't afford) and seeing that person nonchalantly paying it at the cashier? Would you like to at least have a chance of getting either above?

Well, Lydia Teh is celebrating her 10,000 book sales (and from her post maybe more than that) by throwing in a contest of winning either MPH vouchers or McDonald vouchers. Since I am greedy and there is nothing to lose and I am eyeing those MPH vouchers and it is as she said, easy as ABC , I am joining and well.. those who are interested for a chance.. head to here : http://lydiateh.wordpress.com/2007/09/28/10k-contest/

Ciao.

p/s: My phone rusak. I am sad. Yeah people, I am currently not reachable.

Re-arrange:
Hey.. a guy who reads.. wait. Collect books. Hehe..

Oh.. does the book you bought nice?

Lydia Teh:
No problem, just doubling the chances . Then I hope the book sales went super.

Effi:
Yeah. I don't think so I have the patience to write a novel though.

Ah.. I hope I win it too. But depends on Lady Luck

End of a decade?

So people are like eh its not the end of a decade, end of a decade is dec 2020. Whatever. We ignore this people. Nearing towards the end of 2019. I wanted to summarize what I had done in a decade but old age is catching up and my memory is foggy. Lets just tried it. From 2010 to 2019 - I had worked 3 jobs.  Quit and now a SAHM. - Went from 2 cats to 8 til recently and now down to 5. I can manage 5. 8 was chaos. - Somehow from having no kids I now have 3 boys. 2,5,7 . - I want to say I travel unsatisfactorily but I visited about 6 countries in 10 years. Ok lah.  - Husband went from long distance and now back at home just recently. - Went from a US tv shows addicts to Kdrama addicts. - Read a lot the first half of decade, not so after quitting. Duduk rumah don't feel like reading. Which is bad sebab kenkadang feels like brain rotting off. - Blogging is no longer a thing by 2019, but we hardened early 2000s bloggers are coming back to spout off nonsense s...

Why does my heart cried Feelings I can't fight You betrayed me But just don't deceived me And please believe me when I say I love you [From the movie Moulin Rouge] And why didnt he? He's playing hot and cold.. hot and cold with me. I can't stand it. Yet I always come back for more. I am a true blue masochist. I don't even ask him to love me. I just ask him to miss me. And he couldnt even do that.. or say it. I just want to see his face once more. To see his lovely smiles, his small laugh. Why couldn't I forget him. When he could so easily dismissed me.. he could just easily come back and messed my sense and sensibility. While my tears fall down to my keyboard, yet at the same time I was making jokes and soothing him telling him "no worries". I don't ask for much... a smile, a pat on the hand. I miss him so much. Yet I am so afraid to let it shows. Becoz then if I show it... it will hurt 10 times more.
