The Perks of Being an Introvert

As an introvert, how I enjoy life? People say I'm a little bit of a confused introvert but I'm quite convinced that I am definitely an introvert. And I enjoy my life just like everybody else does, sometimes even more. 1) I enjoy my own company, so I don't always need others company. 2) I have a set of very few yet very close friends. (And I'm a completely different person when I'm with the ones really close to me, liked I'm possessed by some extrovert ghost) 3) My room is my country or even my universe. I don't always need to go out there to have fun. 4) Books are my best friends. You could live the lives of a thousand characters in a book. And I could totally survive in a world with just me and loads of books.It is bliss to just go on a drive alone, or to shop alone or to even have a mug of your favorite coffee. 5) Everybody needs some alone time and i have a lot of it and I thoroughly enjoy this time. 6)I like to talk only when required and I love t...

Road to Ramlee

Four close friends in a P.Ramlee tribute band goes in search of their own true voice, in hopes of becoming a legend. I have watched all the four episodes of this film, (or short film) and it is really nice. Of how you can do tributes to legends. Singing back their song, acting their dialogues, are not really tributes. Super trend when you can express in your own words. Episode 1: Published on 29 Jan 2015 A P.Ramlee tribute band is on the verge of their real break but tragedy strikes twice when they find out their lead singer is not only leaving the country but also falls ill two weeks before the big show. Should they replace him or go on without a lead singer? Episode 2: Published on 4 Feb 2015 The band begins its search to replace their lead singer after the audition flyer Adam designed on his GALAXY Note 4 goes viral, but doubts ensue at the packed audition. Will they find someone who can carry the flame that P.Ramlee ignited in time for the show...

Book Review: Gocoh by Wan Shafiq

The uproar of politics? Surely the food in my plate. Gocoh took place and scenario in Kelantan; the endless debate on green and blue people (You definitely knew this if you are Malaysian citizen). What touches me about this book? What I learnt that we always chose politic stands before religion.We are divided by our beliefs on who has more power, and we believe that we have power to determine who will be in heaven, and who don't. The scenario of racism, and finger-pointing. Too much in the society -- but it is there. Until someone is gone, or something got heat up, then we realize that we are divided. We are not uniting, despite of the oneMalaysia. A very good story line, a very classic spot of story. Definitely not wasting my time. 

Penyatuan atau Perpisahan?

Semua gadis pasang mimpi Berjumpa putera idaman hati Bikin mereka jadi suri Lalu tercapai segala duniawi Semua gadis mahu bahagia Kerana senyuman milikan segala Tak pernah detik seketika Aturan Tuhan ada permainannya Mungkin karena cinta itu manis Lalu harus berakhir dengan mahligai Yang menyatukan Yang membahagiakan Namun cuma khayalan Apakah pernikahan cuma untuk sandiwara? Apakah penyatuan jiwa cuma sia-sia? Apakah sebenarnya mahu manusia? Apa, kita perlu bersatu kemudian berpisah kemudian balik lagi agar dapat mengerti? Entah, aku bingung.

Book Review: Tirani by Beb Sabariah

(This is the finest picture of the book that I can find on the web) The theme and story line is purely on women. Say it to me, I am feminist (grin) hewhewhew. This book is about a woman (Waheeda) who is obsessed to beauty, until she decides that she wants to do plastic surgery. She is tired of being mocked that she is ugly. At the same time, she was a managing a tourism company in Sarawak. Yes, it surprises me that the whole story line talked about Sarawak, and I finally realize the beauty of my own land. Because when I picked this book out of the shelves, I never thought that it took place in Sarawak, especially Kuching. Those roads that I am really familiar with. Towards the end of the story, her husband, Zahid left her because he thought that she was cheating on her. Waheeda struggled and became single mom. Brought up her daughter, Izzati until they met again. The struggle of women caught my eyes for this novel. I really want women to be look up as the one power that ...
