For those of you that doesn't know me personally, I'm a bookworm. I read all kind of books - fictional and non-fictional. Unfortunately my language only limited to Malay and English and God, don't I just love reading.
I was cleaning, rearranging my book cabinet last weekend and I found out that it was wayyyy overflowing! I know my book rack is full but somehow before, I just couldn't be bothered and just stack the books away once I finished reading it! I didn't realise it was THAT full until the moment that I can't stack any more books!
My dad once suggested that I do a garage sale and sell all my books but no way! I will never ever sell a book coz I LOVE them! The thought of parting with them kindda filled me with horror..haha! Even nowdays, my aunts lend some of my favourite novels and haven't return them - and that was like a year ago! Karit? Me? Adalah sikit-sikit but I borrowed it to them so I'm not that stingy...hehe!
Anyway, I'm thinking of renting it. I mean, I kindda sayang to sell it so why not rent it. I mean, I can get a lil' bit of extra income without selling the book. Macamana?
My idea is that I will setup another blogsite and list all the books that I had. So, whoever wanted to rent the book can just email or call me and we setup a meeting place to do the 'deal'. Sounds good? The fees; I'm thinking of $1 for my Mills and Boons collection (the 160+ pages books); $2 for Mills and Boons novels (200+pages and above), for all my historical romances and around $3-4 for my Alaf 21 and Malay novels...Okay kah? So far I got 100+ of Malay novels and more than 200 of the English novels...
But the question is - to rent or not to rent?

Bestfriend....
Friday, January 11, 2008
Ever feel that your bestfriend is not longer your bestfriend? Dunno whether it makes sense or not but hmmm...entah la! Maybe I am having one of those days! 'Those Days' means where I feel overly sensitive, thinskinned over basically nothing. PMS? Maybe...
Lately, somehow, I feel like my bestfriend is betraying me. How I feel betrayed? She made an arrangement for us to hangout but when the day came, somehow she is not sure whether she wanted to go out or not and I just let it go and said 'Ok, maybe next time'. The next thing I knew when I was able to catch up with her, she was teling me that she went out with her ex-colleague (the one she worked with before) and merely spent an entire afternoon together - shopping, eating out and watching movie. Jealous? Of course I am! We always do that together.
Am I on the wrong side of the fence or she is? What? I'm not longer sporting enough for her? There are times when I wanted to confront her about this thing but when the time comes, it just sounds so ridicilous! I mean, we are old enough, we are mature enough - well, at least I know I am! I don't know what went wrong?! I admit I was kindda buzy lately and doesn't have much time for her but is that a reason for her to turn her back on me now?! Okay, maybe I'm wrong but geeezzz, she has to understand me, my work and my family! That's what bestfriend is for, right? Or maybe I just being insensitive.
The longer this 'thing' going on, it's gonna kill me and our friendship! Can I live without it? Of course I can but somehow, something is missing! Honestly. sometimes I just miss her, like today!
Am I ready to lose and live without a bestfriend? Somehow the answer is yes coz along the way and somehow deep within my soul, I feel like I'm losing her...Guess I have been ready for this moment. But I hope it's not the case!
Fight for it? It takes two to tango....
Friendship - we always take it for grannted....

Mummy....Let Me Ride....
You know what one of my New Year resolutions was for the year 2007? Nah! Of course you didn'y know coz this blog is only active last May...what was I thinking? Hehe! Anyway, my last year resolutions - well, one of them anyway - is to learn and earn a motocycle liscence before I reached 30 years old. Coz I love bikes! Motobikes that is...
What had I done to make my dream came true? Nothing!! *AHAKZ* Teruk ah! Well, not entirely noting! I mean, I went to bike agents and look at the bikes that I like....riders mostly! And started comparing the prices. At least m doing something, right?
But that was nearly a year ago and last Wednesday, while I was stuck in the traffic jams leading home, 3 bikers passed me by with their so-ever-rugged bikes and then I remembered my resolution! *WALAAA* Time to make that dream came true, my lady! Hehe! You know how easy is it if you riding a bike and stuck in a traffic jam? You just go in the middle, between all those cars and get yourself out of the traffic...hmmmm...
The only problem is my Mum. She won't let me ride a bike!!! *MUMMYYYY* She said it's not proper for a lady to ride a bike. Of course it isn't but I WANT TO RIDE one! But come to think of it, it would be sooo funny for me to ride a bike. I mean, now that I changed place of work, I'm bringing like 4 bags to work - the handbag (containing purse, hands and nails lotions, pens, mobile, candy, tissues - you get the idea), my telkung bag (containing my telkung - duh!), my laptop and paperwork bag (containing my laptop and some 'homeworks' to review at home) and my breakfast and lunch bag (I packed my 2nd breakfast always but lunch - sometimes) and can you imagine me, riding a bike with 4 bags behind my back??! Cali cali....
So, to buy? Not to buy? But apa-apa, I will get my liscence first then I think whether buy or no buy.....
In the meantime, I can just dreammmmm.....

Happy New Year and Ma'al Hijrah
It's been quiet a while I didn't update my blog and without realising it, it's 2008 already! Times...where did you go off to?? 2007 came and went and here I am, physically still the same but emotionally and spiritually, kindda a bit different! Of course everyone need some changes in their life.
My life? Kindda hectic lately....and I think it will stay the same until few months until I got the hang out of things! After doing my end of the year reports and everything, now I have to familiarize myself with 2 different environments and 3 days into the new offices, my head is throbing like mad...
This morning, just to avoid the hectic traffic, I took off from home around 6.35am and arrived around 7.05am (compared to the first day - took off from home 6.45am and arrived 7.30am!). I entered the office, switched on the radio and I was wandering around what I want to do! Don't get me wrong..I got TONNES of work to do but somehow, my mind doesn't work on which thing to deal first! But Alhamdulilah, I managed to get most of the things done....
I got so many to update but somehow, m kindda tired looked at the my laptop...so m gonna log off now, will update again soon....
