I just finish read the new novel from JS…. Lili Buat Najah (LBN) really touches my heart… it reminds me back on how hard to accept losing of your loves ones…. Last year I shall called as year that test my mentally to the maximum limit… in one year I lost my three uncles that used to be closed with me especially my late Pak Long…. Till now whenever my families talk about him, I can’t stop my eyes from making the tears fall down… even sometimes, when I was alone I can’t stop myself to think about him…. He just like my own father… he gives me motivation to continue my study…. In truth, during last semester I did have thought in my mind to withdraw from my postgrad…. Lucky me cause I still have family that never failed support me all out….
This the same feeling that I had go through when I lost my late Wan… even from small I’m not raise by my grandma but as I grew up I sometimes consider my Wan as my own mum… but as the Almighty love her, she leave me when I was in form 2… in fact I had witnessed how she leaving us peacefully… there same goes to my beloved pet, Peekaboo… even he was just a pet to met, but he made my life different… not to mentioned daily routine but beyond that… until the day I want to leave for good to Langkawi, I also had a second thought to just continue my study around Penang Island… the reason just because I couldn’t leave my pet… when all the loves ones leaves us, it just like part of yourself also gone… even they have gone for more that 6 months, except from my late youngest uncle, Uda Amir, sometimes I did feel there are always with me and my families…
What make me writing this entry is that the way Kak Nazurah wrote LBN, it make me reminisce back all the feelings that I have been through in accept the fact that my loved ones already leaves me and live in another place that one day I and all other people would be there when the times comes…. Well done sis… at least as human being once in while we must bear in mind that everything that live today might end either tomorrow, next week, next month or next year… when the times comes, nothing much can be done except from all your goods deed that you have done along your life…
LBN really make me think that what will be in the future… especially how well we can cope when we lost of any of our loves one… hopefully I shall be strong as the character of Natasha as portray by Kak Nazurah… congrat’s sis for the nice yet touching story…..

A Day in KLIBF'08
I was there on the 12th April… but on the 11th itself I was in KL since I need to go to Mak Long Bib house in AU3 Keramat to return all her books regarding government exam… then stay a night there before going to KLIBF’08 on the next morning…. However, God make pretty good plan for me… when I was doing some window shopping with my other siblings I bump into my dang crony’s sisters from Brunei…. Both of Kak Nina and Kak Ryn also were there since they just arrived from Brunei the day before… it was a true coincident…
So on the 12th itself, I and my siblings, Yong and Adik depart from Menara Jentayu around 9.45 and we reach PWTC around 10.15… during that time there were already crowded with people… so we also need to squeeze in order to be able to enter especially in Hall 3… Jemari Seni booth is in Hall 3 so need to go there first as I need to take my books from there… after greet almost everybody before the book hunting process begins… Kaksu and Kak Yah (of course must be there), Kak Notie, Kak Noor, Syud and others… before that, I SMS my sweet sis and asking where she is now? Then she replied to me back telling she o the way and she will go to MPH booth first… after that I learned that Dr. SMS is at the MPH booth promoting his late brother book entitled “Reaching for the Stars”…. Actually I bought the book when I was in MPH Midvalley… coincidently I brought along the books with me and indirectly the MPH staff allowed me to queue up and get his signature on my books… what a nice coincident… in fact he did advise me to study hard…. In matter of fact I didn’t mentioned that I’m a student… ehehhehe
After I managed to get out from the crowd at the MPH booth, then again I went up to the Hall 3 since I need to do few searching on the books… my lil sis managed to get books written by Faisal Tehrani but unlucky for her since she couldn’t get the author signature… however she still can get it if she have opportunity to meet him in UKM…. Adik also managed to meet her best buddy Ziela and Najwa during her elementary school….
In the evening I had an opportunity to attend Andrea Hirata discussion on his “Laskar Pelangi” tetralogy… the discussion organized by PTS… in fact Andrea is a nice man and friendly too… full of jokes during the discussion…. He able to the whole Johor room to laugh, to be quiet, to think and also to reflect by only saying few words…. I’m agree with him that if you want to be a writer, please write something that close to your heart… supposedly I’m going alone for the seminar since Yong and Adik schedule to be home… Adik had to join me because Yong doesn’t finish with her mini reunion and that the reason my lil sis was in the Johor room too… above all, my lil sis is begin to like the Andrea Hirata after join the discussion…
Next after finish with the discussion, I, Kak Anis and Adik went to Riverside… since Kak Anis need to perform her prayer, so left me and Adik… at Riverside we have our tea break before going home… apart waiting for Kak Anis, then Yong also coming after meeting her friends…. Then we learned that Abg Ujang and Kak Rahimah also were in PWTC… in fact while in Riverside, I managed to meet Kak Pink…. At last we meet…. so my siblings decide to go back with them… since my siblings left me early… I decide to go to JS booth… to do final greet and going back… but since the security being so strict, I and Kak Anis need to round the Hall 2 before we’re able to enter Hall 3… so while in Hall 2 I decide to buy Laskar Pelangi and unfortunately it sold out… so change my mind and bought Salju Sakinah by Zaid Akhtar… I had read few episodes in Utusan Malaysia but due to the fact that my house doesn’t bought the paper often so I want to know the story through the novel… while in PTS booth I met Kak Jid and now we’re able to do proper greetings… hehehehe…. I guess I need to ask Kak Jiid to buy for me all the four books by Andrea… *wink*
Then, I went to JS booth and do my final greetings… met all the kakak-kakak up there before going back… it was a nice day for me… although it tiring day but I don’t feel it since it such nice feeling to be there… like what Pn Ainon from PTS mentioned to Kak Anis, me n Adik that book fair is actually “Hari Raya Buku”… surely I agree with her…. Till then… see again next year… insyaAllah…
P/s: During my first visit I hardly know people expect for my Dang Cronies…but alhamdullilah now I have more circles of friends… it all happen because the Power of Books… book = knowledge… what a nice things….

Lilttle Burden Lift Up.....
My feelings just the same as my title for this entry....
Alhamdullilah... I already done 2 of my subjects for this semester...
One is economy while the other is my business research method...
But still have another 4 papers to go...
Hmm...
Now counting hours to meet my Dang Cronies plus other bloggers whom I meet n we become friends...
How wonderful the bond that tie us...
It all started just because of BOOK...
Power of Book... I guess....

First of all I felt very happy since I am able to join the occasion... Then I become an emergency MC... since Kak Anim loss her voice... According to Kak Yah there is few plan before my name appear on her mind... the back-up plan is Plan B. However, since the person appointed can’t make it to the occasion so Kak Yah and Kaksu forward to Plan C that was Kak Anis. But again the plan not succeed since Kak Anis's is not answering her phone... So then it was me, a plan D =p

The ceremony started with dua' recital by Tn Hj Harris... then it continued with the "makan-makan" session.... while the guest having their treat, the ceremony going on with the introductory of PSP by Kak Manjlara and DDG by John Norafizan.... Kak Manjlara, finally we meet with each other.... however, time doesn't allow us to get to know closer... insyaAllah KL Book Fair the moments will come...
After the ceremony was already in the middle of time, finally Kak Anis come together with her friend that accompany her... her name is Farah.. happen to be same kampung with me... After Kak Anis and Farah already settle down, again the suprise is coming.... since Kak Anis birthday just 3 days before the PSP and GGD novel launching, so JS decide to celebrate her birthday....
The ceremony end around 5.45p.m... time seems fly so fast... so again, all the people gather in front of the restaurant and photo shoot session begin....
