Hobby: Reading!?

November 8, 2006

I just bought a book during lunch hour - Asian Parenting Today!

Note! It doesn’t help when one work above one of the most happening shopping complex in KL - can really do impulsive purchase!!

This book is recommended by Pinky
I am going to buy the other book recommended by her also, Minus Nine to One: The Diary of an honest mum by Jamie Oliver’s (the celebrity chef) wife, Jools Oliver

Suddenly, I have the urge to read again after soooooo long. It felt like back to the time when I was in primary school (about 10-12 y.o). I will go to school library every day and read every single "cerita dongeng" (Malay: fairy tales) books they have there. In fact, I will read any book they have, like I am possesed by the book…I don’t even care if tomorrow is exam day, I read story book like no tomorrow. I used to tell myself that ‘membaca buku’ (Malay: reading) was the most honest hobby that I fill in all the school forms/exercise. The rest I just made it up to create volume emoticon

Now, I have this urge again…could it be baby?!!

I am just wondering, do I really have the luxury to read, when baby is out? Since my old hobby is coming back to me now…

Reading is good, and I want to continue this passion again…I hope… emoticon

P/S: For those who know me personally and reading my blog - if u wanna borrow books/mags on pregnancy from me. Please let me know yea :)



For the first time…

February 23, 2006

For the first time, I am starting a personal journal - online.

I have been thinking about this for a long time, but as usual - No Action. I am just plain lazy!
So yesterday, as I finish the second last chapter of ‘Purpose Driven Life’ by Rick Warren, the writer suggest that it is good to keep a personal journal as a Christian. "OK! I am going to do it", I tell myself. At that moment, even the title for this blog came just like that….Wow!

"God…is that You?" I asked, because usually it will take me ages to come up with a title. Anyway, I am just glad that I have started already.emoticon

Now, just a few reminders for myself, in case one day my laziness take over and I forgot why I started this…

  • I believe that this journal will be a good reference, when I need to share some of my personal testimonies as a Christian.
  • I want to organise my thoughts, experiences and journey in a written format, so that when I cannot remember anything one day. I can download from here again emoticon
  • I like to read blogs, so why not I start one too emoticon

Let’s begin…
