Books, books, and books
Posted by Fion Chua at 10:57 PMI LOVE BOOKS, and I want to buy more. However, I bought a non-fiction book today and it's nice. The title's Twilight Children by Torey Hayden. Even though the title may sound like it, but it's not a fantasy story.
The summary:
While working in the children's psychiatric ward of a large hospital, Torey was introduced to seven-year-old Cassandra, a child who had been kidnapped by her father and was found dirty, starving and picking through rubbish bins to survive. She refused to speak, so Torey could only imagined what she had been through. Drake, by contrast, was a charismatic four-year-old who managed to participate fully in his pre-school class without uttering a single word. Last, there was Gerda, eighty-two, who suffered a massive stroke and was unwilling to engage in conversation with anyone. Although Torey had never worked with adults, she agreed to help when all other efforts had failed.
*summary copied directly from the back of the book.

Kung Fu Panda 2
Posted by Fion Chua at 10:10 PMAs stated at the title, I went to the cinema to watch Kung Fu Panda 2, including my baby cousin. The outing was for her since she is a big fan of the show, except that she didn't say that.
Overall it was great, a lot of funny scenes and I'd just remember an awkward moment when Esther (my cousin) was laughing and her younger sister (5) asked her, 'Jie, what are you laughing for?' To me the scene was funny (except that I wasn't exactly laughing), but maybe to a 5 year old, it just doesn't make sense.
The outing is a bit chaotic, when my baby cousin and her older sister (the 5 year old girl) keep on walking loudly on the wood platform in Popular and running around. But I did read Singapore True Ghost Story #21.
I had an estimation of RM 220 in my purse, but ended up with only RM 32 (exclude coins). The reason I bought this lot is because I'd just received my allowance and it's been a long time since I've spend much. I normally buy books and stationaries, or sometimes birthday presents. I spent 2 night at Ashley's house, Thursday to Saturday. Let me list out the things I'd bought:
Thursday -The Saga of Darren Shan #11 (1 more to go!), The Saga of Larten Cresply (new book!), Tegami Bachi (anime), ice-skating entrance fee RM 23, Kuroshitsuji and KHR poster.
Friday -A magnetic bookmark (2 in a package) and a bookmark.
Saturday (today) -2 mangas (comics) and Seventeen magazine.
All in all, it'll last me a long time, 5 books...

The Disappearance of Suzumiya Haruhi/ Sausage
Posted by Fion Chua at 10:21 AMFirst off, I have started watching The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya since yesterday and never got round to finishing it because the loading was really slow. I am only in part 2/11 now.
And for the first time, I had managed to do an octopus sausage after trying to do it for 2 years! Here's a pic:
Ohohohohohohoho~!

Lionel's Birthday Party
Posted by Fion Chua at 11:51 PMI went to Lionel's birthday party today, went for supper (for fun) and came back just a little while ago. It was nice altogether, and this is my first time going to a birthday party that isn't for children, he is 14, my first time teenager party. Me, Dion and Ashley was hogging the laptop and we went online to search for Vocaloid dances. It was really convenient since the laptop is connected to the big TV, on behalf of the party. But it's not so convenient for going on facebook. Haha XD
We (us 3 stated above) secretly grabbed some leftover+forgotten goodies from the party, so I have to hid the goodies behind me when I said goodbye to Lionel's mother. They organised a competition in which you can sing or dance, so we chose to dance SNSD's Oh! which we had performed together before. We got 2nd place! I am so happy, but we're a noobie group. When they announced our name, all 3 of us is sitting, staring stupidly at the prize announcer. But I enjoyed it!
