A cute YA and ambitious but somewhat fallshort biographical

The Wide-Awake Princess by E.D. Baker My rating: 4 of 5 stars About the book In this new stand-alone fairy tale, Princess Annie is the younger sister to Gwen, the princess destined to be Sleeping Beauty. When Gwennie pricks her finger and the whole castle falls asleep, only Annie is awake, and only Annie—blessed (or cursed?) with being impervious to magic—can venture out beyond the rose-covered hedge for help. She must find Gwen's true love to kiss her awake. Read this months back... and not much to say about it. Bought this for my niece who is 9, and she loves it. Before giving it to her, I read it first.. just to make sure no inappropriate stuffs is ongoing in there. Ok I lied. Of course I read it because I wanted to. I love Y.A. Especially reimagining of fairy tales. It was a cute story. A good book to give to young girls and my niece who is into princesses is currently reading it the second time. So that is saying something aight. ---------------------------------

Alkisah malang

Tu MyVi busuk aku. Kena aniaya dek orang.  It goes like this, last week on Thursday ( malam jumaat nii), on the way back from office to home cermin kena pecah dek peragut.  Jalan nak masuk Ukay Perdana at MRR2 tu kan selalu jem amat, so at 8 pm, memang still banyak kereta lagi lining up at the traffic light tunggu for the light to go green. Aku pon antara kereta2 tu la, dan with radio on and tengah kunyah2 Mochi mahal sedap gilos sebagai buka pose, and air Gong Cha. Ye tu semua korang kena tahu walaupon tak penting. Sebab peragut tu jugak telah kill my appetite untuk buka pose.  So while tengah minum air tu, tetiba dengar bunyi 'kraaaakkk'. Sumpah bunyi camtuh. Aku pandang passenger side, tengok cermin aku cracked. Tepi kereta aku ade motor. Orang atas motor tu tengah pandang aku. Pastu 'kraaaakkkk' lagi. Rupanye orang belakang motor tu tengah cuba pecahkan cermin ai T_T . Bila kali kedua die try tu baru aku sedar... "shitttt die orang nak amik beg

Finished 1 book!

Rejoiced! I used to read at breakneck speed. When the last Harry Potter book came out, which is just a nice during the weekend, I holed up in my room and finished it in 12 hours. Intense. During my semester break uni days, because no money so beggars can't be choosers, we went to the library.  By we I mean me , my mom and my 2 little brothers. So usually by the end of 2 weeks I had read all of my 5 books, and my mom 5. Brothers punye tak because children book meh. Sekaranggg.... 2 bulan la nak habiskan Sophie's Choice. And it was an interesting read, it was a good book. Not great, but suspenseful, nicely writte, well drawn out characters and interesting issues. Issues of growing up, acceptance, sex, illnesses, wars. It is not a light read but it is not heavy either.  I had always wanted to read Sophie's Choice, because pop culture references. Doesn't it drives you mad when people keep on quoting things you have no idea of. So this is why. I am surprised t

The top above yang I made in Vietnam that the tailor did not make as I wanted it to be made  it was suppose to be longer tapi I brought it to be altered to shorten a bit. Tapi not to my specifications pon I still like wearing it. Ok. Nak gi shopping kat Global Indian Festival lak.

My 10 mo old boy

Who is sooooo making her mommy nerves on edge semalam sebab tanak tidur and if he nak tidur pon, atas mommy and ME being ME who is all alone with no help ( maid? what maid... she went out with her friends from morning till maghrib all weekend) aku rase nak cekik semua orang. Anyway, aside from that... he is growing up.. to be what.. I dont know yet. Somewhat clingy, demanding, knows what he wants, like Game of Thrones song. ( sorry, I can't help it, I love that soundtrack, but I let him watch the series, when.. hmm.. maybe he is starting college? ) Last weekend swim. Comel sangat kan. (jawabbb yeee) So what is up with him. He is 10 month today! 2 more months and he will be my tiny tots. No longer my tiny baby. Sedih! He already have 2 teeth at his bottom, it is the cutest thing and he likes using my hand as teether. Sekarang rase geli2 la kan, tunggu la nanti bile dah fully grown.  He can stand! And he stands up so proudly looking at his mommy and sengih besar
