Accomplishment for today : Completed my reading on the Gossip Girl book. 6.31pm. Yay =D
Small Thoughts : This is absurd. I'm eyeing too many books!!
Now I'm eyeing another book (having just remembered the title)
Picture taken from Barnes & Noble dot com
This book happens to be historical. To the times of Hitler.
This is a real story, and it's in the form of a diary belonging to a Jewish girl.
I bet most people wouldn't like the book, being historical and all that.
But it caught my attention during secondary school
Yeah would you believe that? They(the school) actually collects this kind of books! O_o
I only managed to read some parts of the book due to time constraints.
I shall have to find this one.
Small Thoughts : I've finally reached the middle mark of the Gossip Girl book I'm reading. Still surviving through...
I'm now eyeing two more books. Talk about splurging.
Dying in Style by Elaine Viets

Happened to saw the book in Borders@The Curve Mutiara D'sara while browsing through the "mystery" section. Looks nice huh? I really wanna get =P
and
Friends For Life by Ellen Emerson White (picture unavailable).
This happens to be the prequel for Life Without Friends by Ellen Emerson White.
I'll probably won't be able to find this particular book, it's so old! -_-
And I couldn't find any picture of the front cover on the internet...so I'll have to try my luck and blindly search for it now =/
*********************************************
Few days back, a friend of mine asked if I wanted to go to Telawi with her.
For shopping purposes. It so happened I was declared broke at the time.
"hey this Saturday wanna go Teeelawi with me?"
"huh? I'm broke la -_-"
"nvm la you can just look mah"
"waattt that's like bungee-jumping off KL Tower with no bungee-jumping equipment!!"
"-_-"" "
Then during the soya bean steamboat session, I was chatting with another friend.
"She said I can just go there and look wo. I told her it's like bungee-jumping off the KL Tower without the bungee-jumping equipment"
"That's not bungee-jumping!! That's SUICIDE!"
"-_-"" "
Ish.
P.S. Generation Y people likes to splurge alot wan. Which explains the title.
Small Thoughts : I feel weird when I have nice posts but no pictures. Damn pissed with myself because I forgotten to bring my camera along.
Yesterday evening, we celebrated the end of our second semester final examination with Soya Bean Steamboat. I forgot the name of the place though.
Actually, the soya bean soup inside tastes exactly like the usual clear soup for steamboat, except it's a tad more salty. Overall, it wasn't so bad. The soup didn't change the taste of the food we put in.
We then decided on tom yam soup for the other steamboat bowl.
The tom yam soup happened to be really spicy. The lady who served us said it was just moderate spicyness! O_o
All this for the price of RM15.
Pretty cheap, huh? =D
Hmm...t'was very filling. Whats with 5 of us eating everything.
It's not a buffet steamboat mind you. We were going to go for one, but changed our mind coz we wanted to try the soya bean steamboat.
Whatsmore, I expected the soya bean soup to be sweet just like the drink! -_-"
Haha...*trying not to puke thinking about sweet fishballs for dinner...*
But I don't think I'll be going there anymore in the near future.
***************************************************************
I'm reviewing the books I've read.
...
I'm bored, okay?
Holiday started since 5.10pm yesterday =D
Click on the title of the book at the right hand bar for the review.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm planning to auction some of my stuff.
As they say
"One girl's junk is another girl's treasure"
I have so many things to sell off, but finding it hard because the transportation cost have not been figured out yet.
By the way, I got this idea from Cheesie.
P.S. I'm using my old website chellzsite for the reviewing and auctioning. Links will be up soon.
It was RedNoseReindeer who got me into shopping like crazy.
Now it's Monkaye's turn to get me hooked on reading again like crazy.
Remember the previous post where I bought that Gossip Girl book?
This time, I bought another book. One that I've been looking for a long time.
(The Gossip Girl book was just to calm my itchy hands to get a book quick.)
(Sue Townsend presents...the 2nd story of Adrian Mole)
(Bought at Times Bookstore)
Actually, I found two other books I've been looking for for quite some time.
One is Retail Therapy by Roz Bailey. Found this one in MPH 1 Utama. One copy left *sigh*
(Courtesy of Amazon dot com)
Second is Sidney Sheldon's Tell Me Your Dreams. Saw this one at Times Bookstore 1 Utama. One copy left *sigh*
(Courtesy of Hachette Books Group dot com)
I've already read the prequel book to the Sue Townsend book above. Not bad. Some parts are humourous. Suitable for people who likes to jaga tepi kain orang lain haha =P
The book is actually Adrian Mole's diary.
So...now I'm totally broke.
Earlier I messaged RedNoseReindeer on my mobile phone:
"At this rate, even if I work, I'll still be broke"
There's so many books I want to get. But so little time and dime to buy them.
Maybe if my parents own a bookstore like Xandria Ooi =P
By the way, my father got me a watch, all of a sudden.
I won't mention the brand. I dare not. *cough*
But it's really nice and fits me well.
=D
And since I've not worn a watch for a long time, I have to get used to wearing one all over again.
Sigh...shall log off now. Time to go study Business Statistics and face the exam tomorrow.
P.S. I might do a review on the Gossip Girl - You Know You Love Me book. If I do survive through that book that is.
P.P.S. I'm reading two novels at the same time O_o This is bad -_-
I have to say :
I think I did pretty well for my Managing People and Organisation subject today.
...
Well, all except the last essay question. Totally forgotten the points :/
But I'm pretty confident in the multiple choice answers and the first essay answer.
Hehe *winks*
***************************************************************************
After exam, got forced to spend the day with RedNoseREINdeer and Kayo today.
RNR of course happy ler, exams officially ended today.
Me and Kayo are going to sit for our Statistics paper on Thursday.
Lunch was at Paddington House of Pancakes@The Curve Mutiara Damansara.
(Paddington House of Pancakes. For the ardent pancake fans.)
I shouldn't have taken Kayo's comment lightly when she commented that
"I get a headache everytime. From choosing what to eat."
And I was beginning to get a headache from choosing what to eat too.
The selections were wide!
Meals also include pancakes, dessert also include pancakes.
And to couple it up, my indecisiveness isn't helping much.
Prolly made it even harder.
In the end, chose this:
Forgot the name liao -_- the order number is 401.
RNR ordered this:
Name also forgot liao -_-
Kayo ordered this:
Name has also been forgotten. Wait...I never knew it in the first place!
The food is really delicious! And very filling. Though I was still feeling hungry :/
While waiting for RNR to finish her meal, went to withdraw money coz I was going broke. Soon.
And on the way back, I bought this white nail polish pen and brush at a small stall on the ground floor.
Now I can practice drawing on my nails :D Can practice whole holiday even XD
And all this while I kept pondering on and on about how them manicurists managed to paint with the usual nail polish brushes -_-"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After lunch
went to watch the movie Accepted.
(Courtesy of Wikipedia)
Overall, the movie was pretty good. Should watch if you want to have a few laughs. Shall not spoil the movie here though. Further spoilers are obtainable through Wikipedia. Don't say I didn't warn you :/
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
All this while, I have been looking for this particular book titled "Retail Therapy". The author is Roz Bailey.
No it ain't no self-help book for people who are in dire states of shopping, nor it's for people who finds comfort in doing some retail shopping.
It's a story about this girl who is studying at a very high level of her education and at the same time working part-time at prestigious law firm. But to keep up with the latest trends and fashions in New York City, she gave up studying and working at the law firm to go and shop shop shop!
Her parents has decided to cut off her allowance and credit cards if she doesn't do something about the situation soon.
So the book is about her last shopping spree with her best friend, where they would shop till they drop for the last time.
I have gone to the MPH and Borders branches in The Curve but is unable to find the book. Borders never had it in their stock, and MPH has run out of stock of that book. But MPH did mention that its 1 Utama branch still has a copy left.
My last resort would be Kinokuniya then, since they do have the book there, priced at RM52.08.
Damn blardy expensive -_-
I wonder if the book is categorised under chicklit.
Later went to Popular at Ikano Power Centre to look for the book but learned that it had ran out of stock as well.
Hmm.
This could either mean two things.
One : The book is so laku, everyone wanna buy.
Two : The book is so not laku, the bookstores gave up on restocking them.
I hope its the former reason.
Ended up buying another book at Borders while I was there.
I've seen this book from a picture at Kingsley's blog.
You Know You Love Me - Gossip Girl
Thought of reading it after my finals for this semester are over.
Turned to the back and realised it is actually the second novel of the series -_-
Aiya.
Yes I was camwhoring. Many thanks to Kayo.
Guess what I saw on the way to The Curve?
Urg damn depressing. Damn scared of my final results now.
This post pretty much wrap up today's events.
Ciao people and have a nice day :D
Small Thoughts : A very happy birthday to Chew Fan Sheng! You're getting old muahahahahahah!
I just started studying for my next subject today. Managing People and Organisation subject.
Was reading Lecture 6, then when RedNoseRaindeer(haha, btw, copyright liao) messaged me about the subject, I took out my revision paper and found out...
I WAS READING THE FREAKIN' WRONG LECTURE!
_#&()_%^*(_(%*^%_&$()*!!!!
Oh well, luckily I found out sooner...Or else waste my precious time only. Not like I have much left =/
Listening to my lectures all over again. Now I wondered why la I never listened back until now. Really regretted, but it's waaaaayy too late.
Just realised some of my recorded lectures have been "corrupted". By human beings.A certain Raindeer's voice and a certain Monkey's voice.
Yes...now, even if I strained till my ears go deaf, I wouldn't be able to capture whatever the lecturer says.
Fuck la, how now? Can turn back time or not? Damn pissed.
Somehow I've lost my enthusiasm to get a degree. It's taking my late teen years away, as well as some of my early adulthood years.
Next time, I have to keep in mind to stay away from friends in lectures. Even from those people I don't know.
Just out of the blue, my mom ask me to go overseas to study.
O_o
So sudden? For what?
Can stay and study good enough lar!
My father's case different mah.
Haihz.
There's no way I wanna go overseas to study.
I don't think I can stand the racialism many Asian faced at the country Down Under.

P.S. I sedang emo. emoemoemoemoemoemoemoemoemo
