Falling For Hamlet!

salam,

I love books. Okey. Itu memang dah judicially notice. Then one day about several months back saya nampak this one book dalam catalogue Kinokuniya…Falling For Hamlet. And once saya baca dua tiga line punye sinopsis kat dalam catalogue tu immediately saya yang terfalling for hamlet. I really want to read the book! Macam interesting sangat.

So, menapak lah ke Kinokuniya again dengan tujuan yang satu..just for Falling for Hamlet. Sampai je terus cari…and tak jumpa-jumpa…then terus tanya kat counter. Dapatlah assistance tolong carikan..tengok-tengok assistance cakap 'sorry, dah habis stock'…what? Sangatlah..selama ni cari buku apa pun ada je..time-time kesempitan dan mengidam ni jugak lah nak dihabiskan stocknya…huhu.sedih.

After that day, tiap kali saya melawat mana-mana bookstore mesti akan tercari jugak Falling for Hamlet tu. And sadly enough semua kedai nak terhabis pulak stocknya..memang sampai sudah saya tak dapat baca buku tu…sampai hati Hamlet..

Until this one fine day…I woke up early sebab ada breakfast date with my two besties and kitaorang lepak kat kedai breakfast until 10..so much for a breakfast..hehe. Then balik campus, singgah library cari buku untuk final exam..(yeah..sekarang tengah study week..), then singgah photocopy centre untuk photostat notes and print assignment..bila dah siap semua, then tetiba my sorang bestie ni cakap dia ada satu lagi benda nak print tapi saya tak boleh tgk…haha sangatlah kan..okey..fine.. ai tak tengok punye…so saya pun duduk lah berehat bawah pokok nun dari tempat photostat tu.

Lama pulak dia print kan…tapi sebab ai dah diberi mandat untuk tak tengok so takder la nak gi tanya kenapa tak siap-siap lagi..tengah saya membelek dan menelek notes-notes yang photostat tadi tiba-tiba datanglah kawan saya yang sorang ni bawak dua bundle besar kertas yang dah siap compiled. Baru nak tanya notes apa yang tebal sangat dia print tetiba…tadaaaaa!!!!! Bundle tebal itu berada di atas riba saya and bundle itu bertajuk FALLING FOR HAMLET!!!!!  Aaaaaahhhhhh!!! (okey, memang ai jerit kat situ…haha).

Seriously! Ini serious! Falling for Hamlet kat depan mata saya sekarang!!  Awwwwww…soooo sweeettt kawan saya ni…dia printkan the e-book version of Falling For Hamlet untuk saya and tulis notes kat dalam tu 'enjoy reading'….terharunya…who cares about all the bookstores yang selalu nak menghabiskan stock buku..ai ada bestie yang love me enough sampai sanggup search and printkan the book for me! Jelous enough? Haha. Memang rasa nak brag all the way..terima kasih kerana menjadikan hari ini bahagia…=) saya dapat benda yang saya dah cari berkurun lamanya dalam sekelip mata..Alhamdulillah.

p/s: thanks so so so much babe!! I'll treasure it well=)

The Big Bad Wolf..is back!

salam,

Anyone yang hard die fan of books for sure tau yang the Big Bad Wolf is back!!…and this time its bigger and better!!


The ultimate book sale of the entire universe tu was held at The Mines Convention Centre (MIECC) this time around. Memandangkan saya dah nak grad and bila dah balik ke hometown benda2 camni dah takder so saya decide nak menjejakkan kaki lah ke sana…


Sampai je entrance convention seriously orang ramai giler but the books was a lottt!! Seriously! Tempat tu dah la besar, pastu longgokkan buku pulak super banyak, pastu yang bestnya dia dah siap divide ikut genre but still setiap genre tu ada banyak pulak stack lain2..rambang mata giler nak pilih. Nasib baik saya tak bawak trolley kalau tak lagi banyak saya angkut.


After diangkat letak angkat letak, subdivided and substract, add itu add ini..last-last ini yang saya beli…



love letters of great women



1. Love letters from great women
Amik ko..jiwang tak jiwang ai nie…haha. This book is a compilations of love letters from what they called  a great women such as Queen Victoria…huhu..stalker pun ada ai ni..main2 baca surat cinta orang pulak! Tapi sbb I love something inspirational sbb tu beli.





if i'd known then



2. If I'd Know Then
Nie pun compilation letters jugak but yang ni bukan love letter tapi letter to younger self from various people yang dah berjaya sekarang sepertinya Puan Jessica Alba kita and Cik Natasha Bedingfield the penyanyi itu…haha. Sekali lagi saya jadi stalker yang menelek surat-surat mereka..ini pun inspirational jugak.





hamlet



3. Hamlet by William Shakespeare
Hamlet…should I tell more..semua orang tau Hamlet and this is the original play of Hamlet from William Shakespeare. Bahasanya sangatlah classic but that’s the mahal part..itu yang saya nak.



the dance



4. The Dance
This book is half poem and half storytelling. Combination of two things that I love.





summer and the city



5. Summer And The City
Seriously mula-mula saya amik buku nie sebab terfall in love with the cover. Macam secret diaries. Its pink and cute. Well it is a diary. A diary of Carrie Bradshaw…ala, yang dalam citer sex and the city tu..diary ni citer pasal life dia macam mana dia boleh jadi 'the Carrie Bradshaw' from just an ordinary girl..begitulah serba sedikitnya.





lyrics by STING



6. Lyrics by STING
Nie buku terakhir yang saya terambil waktu tengah queue nak bayar..sempat tau sambar satu walau tangan dah penuh kiri kanan dah time tu..this book pasal lyrics..of course..and semua lyrics from Sting ada dalam nie..mmg byk pun. Semua lyric dia la gamaknya dia letak..haha sebenarnya sepatah habuk lagu Sting pun saya tak pernah dengar. Tup tup gi beli buku lyric Sting pulak. Tebiat la jugak…kecik hati Pakcik Sting kalau dia tahu nie…tujuan sebenar saya beli is because bila saya bukak je..saya terus terjatuh hati dengan all the lyrics. Very meaningful lyrics. Saya sangat suka.


Overall saya berpuas hati dengan semua pembelian pada hari tersebut..owh, not to be forget…I met two nice girls that day..mak dapat kawan baru nak….haha. Kisahnya sebab saya tak tau jalan nak ke MIECC tu and unconsciously kaki saya ikut je budak berdua ni and bila tiba2 dorang stop baru saya tanya dorang camne nak ke MIECC tu and tgk2 dorang pun tak tau and tengah khusyuk ikut orang depan…after dah gelak2 kitaorang decide nak redah sesama ke MIECC tu and after that sepanjang hari lah kitorang bersama…siap dinner together tau before balik..and budak berdua tu baby lagi tau..baru 18 tahun…terasa diriku tua di saat itu tapi serious tak rasa gap. Thanks Nini and Sanah…!!


p/s : The Big Bad Wolf is until 23rd December 2012 so anyone yang tak pergi lagi sempat lagi nie…go go!

second of all..sorry sebab i was not there..

third of all..i will surely be there on the wedding day! promise!!

honestly, saya nak sangat attend the engagement ceremony awak but then masa saya sangat terhad. when it come to time it become the most reliable excuse. nasib baik gambar-gambar awak dah diupload bolehla saya tgk...hehe. you look so happy and so beautiful..seriously! the only missing thing in the picture is me!  maybe i should consider crop my picture and paste dekat tengah2 gambar awak tu kan..haha.

ingat tak zaman kita kecik-kecik dulu..kita selalu borak pasal all the girls stuff and kawen is always in the list. and kita siap promise lagi tak nak couple and nak bercinta selepas kawen..nampak sangat dari kecik dah terpengaruh dengan novel cinta tapi its not a bad thing pun kan.. and hari ini awak dah buktikan it really can happen accordingly.

hidup nie jauh lagi..and berkahwin tu cuma satu lagi permulaan untuk hidup. saya akan selalu doakan kebahagiaan awak..i'm not in a position to give you all the marriage advises sebab i'm not married myself but the only thing i can tell you is just please be happy and if there is any probs along the way just remember that i'm always here to help=)

and here is the pics!!! (seriously i should just crop my pic and paste it in there!)

it's a one beautiful day!!

Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam bersabda:

خَيْرُ النِّكَاحِ أَيْسَرُهُ

“Sebaik-baik pernikahan adalah yang paling mudah.” (Hadis Riwayat Abu Daud, 6/13, no. 1808. Dinilai sahih oleh al-Albani)

fate and dream

5 years ago I still wearing my school uniform, attend school diligently and struggle for SPM…ok, honestly not that struggle or else I would be on the front page of newspaper already holding my straight A's transcript…still I've past all that.

At this minute I'm already in university and in my final year . Reading laws….time flies and I never realize it. Never had a slightest idea that this would be my fate and fated to be. Never in my list to take law as my subject and nothing in me that I can perceive as a future advocates and solicitor. I never thought I could do it but as I realize today I'm already half way through. Keep surviving a little more and I would be holding my double degree in civil and syariah law….who can predict that ?

The me that I see several years ago is just a little me with a dream to be a fashion designer and have my own boutique. That's the thing I always dream for since a little girl. Life lead me to a different path. I'm no way heading to anything called fashion and boutique….who can predict that?

Reading laws for all this years never stop me from building some hope else where. I still have my dream of becoming fashion's designer within me somewhere in my heart. I still doing some fashion sketches in my free time and I'm still sewing some materials here and there. Although I know this lead me to nothing but I did not expect for something. I already accept everything my life had gave to me.

Until one phone call change everything….a call that stated that I've been given the opportunity to do fashion designing course…with the condition I finish up my law degree first…the call that gave me new hope and the call that make me dare to dream again….who can predict that?

Some cheer for me and some say its a waste to abandon my law degree and some think I would waste all my time starting to study all over again but just so you know no one can put me down anymore. All this days I've done what I need to do but today its time for me to do what I want to do. Not a scroll that says degree and have my name on it that I'm looking for but a real experience and skills I'll get along the way that I've dream of.

World may need a person's formal qualifications but I only need my dream and I'll work with nothing but happiness.

A year later..

What had been wrote up there is what's on my though that time..then now I'm updating the though seriously. That day,Yes I'm happy to get the opportunity to do fashion designing. But today, I' don't know if I'am that happy anymore. Since the day I got the good news I search all day long about the courses and the thing is…it is way too expensive! And until today I still studying and living on my parents cost. And not a single cent I pay them back. If I were to enroll again in fashion school it will take them to spend a whole lot fortune all over again on me. I seriously don't want that. I'am now in my final sem of law degree. Insyaallah I will grad soon. And my though is, I want to pay them back. My only dream now is to grad and get a proper job, to make my parents proud and to pay all the love they gave to me until today. I'm happy as I am today. Yes, fashion designing is my dream but not all dream can come true and I believe Allah have better plan for me in this path. Just pray for the best!

p/s: Allah tahu apa yang terbaik untuk kita!
