Really pissed off! Kindle is shipped to Togo, Zimbabwe, Vanuatu, Timor-Leste, Kiribati, Mayotte, Latvia and a slew of other countries that most, I had never even heard before. But, they did not ship it to Malaysia. When oh when will it come to Malaysia? They even shipped it to Thailand. Why not Malaysia?? Wants this : Kindle 3G (Free 3G + Wi-Fi, 6") is available for $189. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002Y27P3M/ref=sv_kinh_0 Want these too: http://www.amazon.com/Lighted-Leather-Burgundy-Display-Generation/dp/B003DZ166Q/ref=_1_4 http://www.amazon.com/SCRABBLE/dp/B003P2QCE8/ref=pd_sim_e_18 Well, for a girl that mostly always (ahem!) win at Scrabble, it is always fun to pit my greymatter against the computer. It is also no fun to lug dozens of books with you around. I have different preferences for reading depending on locations and events. For example, - when on the beaches, with the wind on my face and the sounds of crashing waves in my ears...i like light reading, most probably romance, joke books or simple sci-fi. - At night, in my hotel room, i like sci-fi. - At restaurants, i like sci-fi or detectives stories. - While waiting for my husband to finish looking and selecting fishing tackles, i like sci-fi. Hmmm...might as well dished the Kindle. I'll bring 2-3 sci-fi books with me since it nearly covers all my need anyway...and the common Scrabble box too. Saved nearly RM750 for not buying the Kindle. Which I can use to buy another 40 sci-fi books. Problem solved! Amazon lose a 'going-to-be buying a lot of ebooks' customer. Padan muka. Tuesday, December 28, 2010
Cold, flu??...my head is blurry and fuzzy. My body is full of 'air'...tie a string to me and watch me float. Bloating like crazy, and yet I always eat on time. Deng... A note : If you feel really gassy and kind of air vomiting, eat some raisins. It really helped! Still on my special diet. Tho, had not the guts to go and weight myself for a while. Well, need to go to Hanim's house since my own weighting machine's needle had not moved at all since the last 2 months. Hampessshhhh. I call my diet, the 'Anti-Garfield' diet. No coffee (ARGHH!!), no lasagne or any fattening food (double ARGHH!!) and definitely no cakes ( let us just forget the cakes that I had consumed for my birthday previously, wakaka). Yet, somehow I feel like eating McDonald today. ARGGGHHHHHH!!!!! Monday, December 27, 2010

Kata sampai kacau radar, etc. Tapi dari article, cam taaakk aja. Whatever la, yang pasti kitorang sempat balek umah and sambung tengok bola. Kekeke. Kira good fortune jugak la, walaupun sampai sini dekat pukul 3 pagi yer. Tapi yang bestnyer, masa nak balek kampung...delay 2 jam tuh, pasal apa pulak? Mana yang terbakarnyer selain dari hati daku? Dan kenapa, yang berderet aku nampak affected hanya Air Asia? Hammpeeeeeeehhh.... Tuesday, December 21, 2010
Banyak sungguh kenduri lately nih. Ada yang daku tak tersampai, ampun maaf di pinta. Bukan daku tanak pegi, tapi terpaksa prioritize sebab kalau ada kenduri sedara, kenduri kawan terpaksa di korbankan. Kalau dekat2 leh la juga main lompat2, tapi since jauh-jauh, so terpaksa la...terkilan ada gaks la, but Rina wish aja la dari jauh yer. Semoga korang berbahagia sehingga ke akhir hayat dan diberkati Allah sentiasa. Weekend nih, another 2 kenduri sedara lagik. Ramai sungguh sedara aku kawen tahun nih yer. New year pun ada jugak, kenduri kawan Mami kat Penang. Tapi tatau la daku sempat nak balek ke idak. Tambahan pulak, lately nih rasa fenat yang amat. Selsema on and off. A few times, sampai umah lepas keja aja, dah terkelepek. Rumah pun terbiar cam tongkang pecah aja....cuma kekurangan ikan yu berlegar2. Kalau idak, mesti National Geographic datang umah daku buat penggambaran the Great Migrations 2. Adeh, byk nyer keja umah yang terbengkalai. Jika la ikan2 yu dapat menolong......

New diet.... No sugar, no salt and no fat. My main gripe? No coffee, no tea and no starfruit. Deng...just bought a basketful of the fruit. So now am giving alms of the stuff. Mainly I miss my coffee...and my ice lemon tea. What will come of the new diet? My psychic prediction....it won't last long. But then, my weighting machine had started to grumble like Garfield's already. Well, at least I had not cross the border of being overweight by European standard. Close your eyes oh Asian BMI calculators. Hahaha. Depressed now...
So, need to eat. Thursday, December 09, 2010
The Baby May Be Giving You Mommy Thumb http://finance.yahoo.com/family-home/article/111524/the-baby-may-be-giving-you-mommy-thumb 'Mummy Thumb' phenomenon?? Daku dah sakit ibu jari since the last major crash with Boo. Jari terkepak and it never actually heals. Still got painful problem when I have to lift heavy stuffs and especially when opening jars. 'Muda-muda' dah ada Mummy Thumb. Kekeke. Wednesday, December 01, 2010
Boo eksiden lagik. Aduhai!! Jadik semalam lepas ujan, masa nak balek dari keja. Dah dekat dah ngan umah, macam biasak la byk keta atas jalan, suddenly keta kat depan daku tekan emergency brek...daku pun tekan la brek jugak. Keta belakang daku pun tekan brek. Daku stopped just satu kaki dari keta depan, tgk cermin belakang, keta belakang pun sempat stop. Fikir dalam hati, ok la. Takde apa2. Tetiba, "Debooomm". Apakah???!!! Keta belakang sudah nudge manja si Boo. Alamak! Daku carik cam gila hazard light. Apakah yang patut ku tekan??!! End up calling my loved ones, sib baik ada yang angkat. So, lepas tuh daku check Boo. Belakang kemek skets. Adehhhh... Myvi yang belakang daku tuh, rear end dia sudah kena hentam kuat. Proton, yang belakang sekali, udah terkopak hood dia. Menggeletar both cars nyer orang. Then, dengan machonya daku tanya la bebudak tuh, ada insurans tak? Sorang cakap tatau insurans mana keta dia, sorang lagik cakap dia beli bank lelong, so insurans ada ngan the first owner. Okaaaayyyy....drama dah start dah. Daku call my fren, bawak diorg ke stesen minyak, make sure both cars owner tuh communicate. Then, Goldie pun sampai. Goldie check Boo, rear end sensor dia still bunyik lagi, so ok la. Malas nak claim, tengok macam2 problem, also malas nak panjangkan citer. Bila kawan daku sampai, daku pun belah laaa. Tercancel la semua pit stop yang tercatat dalam perancangan masa nak balek dari kerja tuh, terus pegi umah tuan Goldie. Park keta, bagi Goldie calm Boo down. Daku makan tembikai, potato crisps, ice cream and chocolates. Amik ko. Abis diet daku. Balek umah, umah pulak power trip. Adehhhhh...Menggagau la dalam gelap. Tak leh tido semalam, asik terkejut and terjaga saja. Trauma jugak rupanya daku. Hmmm... Yang pasti, Alhamdulillah coz both daku dan Boo tak apa-apa. Takat kemek skets aja, kira ok lagik. So, kepada semua, sila2 la bawak keta slow semasa dan selepas hujan yer. Jangan nyusahkan orang lain ngan kebodohan dan keegoan anda. Kalau nak cepat sangat, bawak jet pejuang....tak payah bawak keta. Untuk owner keta Myvi, di bawah telah ditandakan butang lampu Hazard. Tekan aja yer. Kalau Kelisa, hazard light tuh dekat area stereng. Sila-sila la baca doa naik kenderaan : Ertinya: Maha suci Tuhan yang memudahkan kenderaan ini bagi kami, sedangkan kami tiba dengan mudah dengannya dan kepada Allah kami kembali.

The race of man shall perish, but the eyes
Of trilobytes eternal in stone, And seem to stare about in mild surprise At changes greater than they have yet known. - T.A. Conrad |
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour. - William Blake, excerp from Auguries of Innocence. |
