Ok ok I'm back.Hehehehe~lots of people leaving impatient messages on my message board d.Sorry guys.So,I'm back from,let's see,I think the last time I left here was before I went Taiping,then I came back and fatt mou-ed for sometime,then went Singapore,then came back for sometime again,then went Japan,& just came back a couple of days ago.
Trip to Japan was awesome!But the stuff there was too damn expensive,so din get to buy much.sniff*But the place there was really super duper hella of nice.Would like to recommend you guys to go there if you plan to go somewhere for a holiday,start saving money now!Coz its expensive,but when u get down to it,its really worth all the money.If it weren't for my sis who dared to even suggest Japan,I guess I wouldn't have had the chance to go there.Coz we were only planning to go Taiwan/Hong Kong at first,it was actually a trip my dad promised me since I was in Standard 6!Coz I got good results for my UPSR.But then there was the economy downturn(tht was 1997) so we had to cancel the trip.Can you believe it?Procrastinated from then till now.That's 10 years exactly.Anyway,I wanted to go Taiwan(probably coz I watched too many Taiwan dramas and variety shows.Hehe.),but my sister wasn't interested in the place,she suggested Hong Kong instead.But then my mum had been to HK already,so its kinda a waste of money to go there again.Then we had a chat and she mentioned how much she longed to go to Japan.As if I didn't!Going to Japan was a dream of mine since I was 14 years old,ok?!But then it'd be too expensive for my dad to afford for a whole family trip,so I never dared to suggest the place to him.Thanks to my sis and her big mouth,he actually said yes.We were all like 'Whoopie!'.Damn excited.
Overall,the trip was superb.But I gained weight after that T_T.Sigh~gotta start swimming again.
Been reading another of Jodi Picoult's books lately.The Pact.Its an amazingly heart-touching book.But its heart-wrenching as well.Its about a beautiful love story of 2 teenagers who knew each other since the day they were born and had since been sticking with each other for their entire lives.Until one day,the girl decided to commit suicide and left the boy alone with charges of murdering his girlfriend and a whole world torn apart.The more I read the book the more I hated the girl,Emily for her selfishness.How can she leave someone she loved and who loved her so much that easily?She can even discuss her suicide plans with her boyfriend and plead him to help her with it.I mean,how can you do that to someone who can never imagine living without you?I'd rather die than to see my loved ones grieve for me.Sigh~However,the story was still beautiful,despite the fact that I hated Emily and the ending,coz the poor guy had to live without that someone he had lived his whole life with.Which is why each time I read the book I read it with the feeling of having a great heavy rock sitting on my heart.Because the book starts off with the suicide and then only weave back into memories the guy had of Emily together with his contemporary situations,which means from the beginning u already know that there won't be a happily ever after ending.Sad...Worst thing was nobody ever knew what made Emily end her life in the end!Nobody at all.That's the fact that disturbs me the most.Sigh~Still,I'd like to recommend this book to those of you who are interested in reading(Suzanne maybe?) coz overall,its still a wonderful book.
Hmm...but for the time being,I think I've had enough of Jodi Picoult's books.All of her books,at least all that I've read,involve court cases!Not that they're not good,but I'm really beginning to get sick of them.Yet,I have another 2 unread books of her on my bookshelf now.*groans*
Oh ya,& is everybody on holiday now?I'm soo outdated.Update me!
