To Do Or Not To do.

...it's in our hand. It's our choice.

Hi, Assalamualaikum. 

Well, I'd re-read my last post, and it really sound funny. Nowadays I am rarely read and write in Bahasa, I think that's why my last post sound tunggang-terbalik. Wa-lah, macam saya ni lahir di Amerika je. So, as a truly Malaysian, so I decided to write in rojak. HAHAHA!

Okay, back to the topic. 

When I'm younger, I have lots of opportunities to do things that I regretted now because I didn't do it at all. And now I keep wonder and asking my self (quite frequent actually), "Why I didn't do that, why I never try this?"  

For example, when I was in primary school, they actually have an association for Wushu training for students, and a friend of mine, actually join in. And she was the only Malay girl who join that martial art that time. How cool is that? She did asked me though to join with her, but I declined because I didn't think it wasn't cool enough that time. There were also another things like PBSM, Palapes, Debate Team etc. etc...

Success People's Indicator = 2013 resolutions!

I think of my self like, you know when too comfortable in something, I keep doing it and I afraid to make some changes. 

Have you ever read "Who Moved My Cheese" by Dr. Spencer Johnson? It's really, really a good book. It's about how you want or need to adapt with changes in your life whether you expecting it or not. Well different people have their own different ways. Some people can easily adapt, and some people have hard times to move on.

As my teacher said to me once, when I was in my sekolah teknik at Kuala Klawang which the area is very outdated and kampung style as I'm from Kuala Lumpur, urban city yaw! So, she said to me (to us, the students actually), 

"Untuk menyesuaikan diri di sesuatu tempat atau keadaan baru, kita ada dua pilihan, sama ada kita ubah keadaan itu mengikut kita atau kita yang mengubah diri sendiri dan sesuaikan dengan keadaan itu."

Which means, when we're in new situation, we only have two choices. It's either we change the situation to follow our ways or change our mindset and adapt the new situation. Something like that.

So, being me that time, I didn't have much choices, aren't I? So, I have to change my self, my ways of thinking and soon I found that I like my school more and never get homesick again. I'd miss my school, until now. 

If you ask me what my New Year's resolutions are, I will say that I don't what to be afraid anymore. Afraid of changes I mean. I will try everything that new to me, so I will not have any regrets on my tomorrows. 

Like today, I'm actually afraid to drive alone, at unfamiliar places. But today I manage to went to place I never been before ALONE, although I'm lost in the way to going there and have to asked for help from my friend, I think it's a really good start though. T^T

So, a new year ahead, brace yourself and be a better person. InsyaAllah.

Till then, buona notte, caro mio. ;)

Hobby.

Assalamualaikum, and hi. ;)

One of my favourite things to do of I have some leisure time is READING. Yes people, I like to read. A LOT. Whether it is a book, novel, article, magazine or even blog. What I read most are, of course, fictional novel, and biography of influenced people. 

I start reading when I know how to read. (Duhh...) When I was a kid, during school holiday I was often sent to my village by parents. When I was there, I will stay at my uncle's house, a teacher and his wife too. So, they have a big cabinet or book shelf. Most of them are educational books. But there are some books for their children too. And then, the other cousin too, who apparently a true collector of some investigation novel like Nancy Drew and Hardy's Boys. I often read his, and sometimes he have to lock his locker in order didn't want me to mess up his novels. --"

When I was younger, I was also a true collector of that investigation teen novel, and some comics like 'Sailormoon', 'Dragon Ball', and 'Detective Conan'. But I don't know what happen, since I was admitted to a school which far away from home, when I came back, most of the books and comics are gone. Damn it!

I didn't buy any new novel, book, or comic since then. I just borrow from some friends and libraries.

Finally when I started to work, and gain my own sweat money, I start to buy books again. This time mostly I buy motivation books, novel and biography. At first I planned to buy a book in a month. But whenever I entered the book store, I tend to have a book with me when I came out, even if I don't have much money.

So, I just promised to my self to go ONLY to book carnival, where I can buy a lot of books that cost me less. But still, there got some website that I can buy books without any constraints. Sometimes I rather don't eat in order to buy books. --"

And yes, I just bought 6 novels just now through online purchasing. Damn it! 

Lastly, I will do some review on what I had actually read and share with you, whoever read my blog. But it take some times right now to read  the books, my previous one, which I bought before, most of them I actually not yet finish. What to do, I am a busy kepohchi lady. I promise my self to finish them, and share the thoughts and reviews. So, I will have a segment in my blog regarding this book review. 

Before I forget,

Just don't miss this out guys.

K, bye. Have a nice weekend!
