why is a raven like a writing desk?



Lewis Carroll:
'Because it can produce a few notes, tho they are very flat, and it is nevar put the wrong end in front!'

can't wait to get them papers done with! 
fight the good fight!

just when you think picturebooks don't matter.

I'm sure some of you might have read The Little Golden Book titles before right? Well, several numbers by this cool guy, are really entertaining reads. (Informational, too!)

p/s: Richard Scarry, you make cats look cute.
Well at least in my childhood memories.
But they still are, anyway.


Do check 'em out!

times when three equals to one.

indeed. pages of books do smell good. kind of addictive. well yeah, took three days to finish a five hundred pager, describing a day's events and misfortunes. I salute Dan Brown.
it is very true that books take you anywhere around the world, even to Timbuktu. some take you to extraterrestrial regions where your imagination roams free; others take you back to the 19th and 20th century during The Great Depression and the Industrial Revolution. you'd be amazed how hard ingenious criminals plan, months ahead, to rob gold worth billions of pounds in a train, or how terrible things can go wrong when a space shuttle's return carrying bacteria from outer space kills a town-full of people. sometimes even those whom you called dearest could plan your death whilst holidaying in an Oriental Express, without you suspecting they loathed you so much. impressive nonetheless.


a scene in Dickens' Hard Times. from a chapter:Starlight.


what matters is not only the joy of having finished reading something, but also the things you discover, insights you have gained along the way.

Until then, savour the scent of newspapers, magazines or novels whatsoever!
buhbye!

some not-looney-at-all tunes. this. and this.

Boo'ya Moon vs. the real stuff ; it's a tie.

Yep, it has been quite a while since my last update. Okay... I have been lazy and I don't want to be too online-dependent. Who knows what it does to you, eh...

November2nd, played Futsal with members of the youth group in church, at an indoor futsal centre in Air Panas.
November9th, jogged/walked for 4km around Dataran Merdeka. Whole family participated in the annual charity walk/jog/wheel-a-thon with the disabled. That was tiring. But it's for a good cause, so I didn't mind. Got to flex my muscles anyway, heh? Ouch!

2nd semester holidays are back, yeah we all know that, and guess what, it's already almost rest-less. In a way that I've got time to read all the in-the-waiting-list books, not all though. Have finished The Two Towers and Stephen King's Lisey's Story(bought it in 2007) so far. Won't stop yet. A chance too dear to miss.

Tuition classes eat away the Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. The rest of the week I'll have to force myself to read one next year's textbook and prepare notes. Leceh kan. sesungguhnya, it's for our own good in the end, betul? Gotta gear up for 2009 somehow...




Yesterday was a bright, sunny Friday. Finished washing school shoes then I thought, clear skies, fluffy white clouds, and that eye-of-heaven which doth not cease to cast its ray ... might as well kill some time snapping away the creator's marvels. Note: 'twas around 1pm when these were taken.


among the rest, I like this best.




another year to wear these. right till december.



School shoes will not be in my sight for another 7 weeks or so. It'll be a different story when I'll have to wear them next time.

In the meantime, will spend some time doing what I enjoy doing for now. With Christmas looming and birthdays approaching, gotta oil my right brain (It'll take longer to rust)... yep, craft sessions are back! not full blast though...

Camp will be from the 11th-15th of Dec at Cameron Highlands.
And... I'll be off to The Land of Kathoeys. (if you're clueless, wait till I get back!)

New sets in Polyvore recently. Hope I'll have more time over there. and I'm sure I'm starting to miss sitting comfortably in the seats of a dimmed room watching a movie with the surround-sound and all...(the other details, I'll leave you to wander off... about who's sitting next to you or who's buying the popcorns...whichever comes to your mind)

these are what I can manage for now... will be back soon enough.

p/s: ignore the title. Boo'ya Moon is a place where some people drift to when they're drifting away. It's found in one of Stephen King's books.


adeus, then!

(letti litte forgot her title)




one word sums it all up : hectic



June 24 - 28

minggu koperasi : got this badge, and another, for free.
initially I requested the owner to keep both first so I can buy later.
since he insisted that I'd not have to pay...
thanks a lot, kevin!

some of the photos I edited using picture motion browser :



got these roses from a neighbour who's returned from Cameron's
whole bunch here.



June 30 : late, late Mother'sDay dinner at SakaeSushi



salmon was good.

school has been tiring since May. two more weeks until our first exam. sixth formers' club is doing okay. coming project: Farewell Party for UpperSix seniors. Am still in the process of cracking that nut ( accounts ). have yet to read up accounting doctrines for a presentation due end of this month. it's for tuition, mind that. Asikin who's joined L6A for the past month(or so) will be leaving to SetapakHighSchool. It's quite saddening, really, to see someone you've just known, now fostered a friendship, and soon, leaving again. ( the 2 friends from Selayang already left ChongHwa ) there'll be 21, or 20 of us after Asikin's transfer, starting Monday. I guess this would be final. And Yes, today I've finally finished reading The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch. So far everything is all right. unable to tell details. drowsiness taking over. eyebags are somewhat getting darker and 'heavier' these days. without fail. I shall take my leave.

sekian. and adeus!
