[BOOK] septimus heap

my septimus heap collection
another magical series has come to an end. this series is by angie sage. it started in 2006 but i only read it in 2007. so i read two books one after another. and then, just like all the other series, i have to wait for a whole year in order to read the next book in the series. personally, i don't think the septimus heap series could compete with the band of harry potter, twilight or even narnia. the septimus heap series is more in league with the spiderwick chronicles. but it still is a great read!

ps: currently, patiently waiting for the percy jackson and kane's chronicle by rick riordan series!

life is a mess!

my cosy bed
my life is currently in a mess. the proof can be seen above. i'm currently doing my thesis. yup, another entry about my unfinished thesis. there's nothing much i've done during my two weeks unpaid leave. the first week, i went to segamat and planned on editing the cooking videos. unfortunately, my ancient laptop couldn't handle the heavy task given to it eventhough my tool for video editing is only window movie maker, nothing fancy!

that slowed my mood. my mom followed me back to putrajaya on the second week. i bought a new laptop at low yat. so, i stayed my eldest brother's house to continue my work. unfortunately, i couldn't focus due to several circumstances and went back to kak sya's home. my mom still with me. but, she had to go back to segamat on wednesday due to our neighbor's wedding.

during these two weeks, i had to admit i haven't done much. i have only about 10 days more to finish it. i pray to Allah everyday, to give me strength to finally do it! what i realized is that, the nearer i come to the due date, the more idea i had and faster i work. thank you Allah for all that You've give to me, Alhamdulillah..

yay, finally found them!

say hello fellas!
introducing my collection of hard rock cafe beanie bears. i started collecting them a long long time ago, when i was still studying at 'that' country. three of them were bought by my friends (i asked them to buy it for me); dublin, munich and madrid. the rest were bought by me. i brought them home along with me and i asked my mother to keep it safe for me. i don't want my nephews and nieces play with them. actually, i don't mind them playing with the bears, i'm more concern on them losing the bears!

but, my mother forgot where she put it and finally, after almost six years i'm reunited with them. here's a dialogue between me and her :

mak : next time, when all the kids (nieces and nephews) are coming home (segamat), let them play with the bears!
me : noooooooo!
mak : but you do know that we couldn't keep toys as decoration right! angels (malaikat) won't enter the house.
me : yes, i know. i will give them to my kids to play.
mak : when are you going to have kids? (sarcastically)
me : someday in in the future, hehe..
mak : erm.. (uninterested in continuing the conversation)

why is my mother not interested in continuing the subject? because we had this same conversation several times before! she knew that it would lead to nowhere, haha..
