The Muggle Has Finally Watched HP7!!

Date:18 December 2010

At last... After 1 month of waiting, I finally watched HP7 at the cinemas. Many attempts before this were met with disapointments. Although the whole world have seen this movie by now, and would be saying "That's old news man! Stop embarassing yourself!".. I really couldn't care less. The movie was great great great and it was a good idea to split the story into 2 parts. The previous movies did not meet my expectations because they skiped so many scenes. The storylines moved too fast and may confuse the viewers who hadn't read the books first. At some points, they got a bit boring. However, this time, I can't wait for Part 2!!

Thank God it's still in the cinema after exactly 1 month of being released in Malaysia

Halfway through the movie, Hasben asked, "Which 1 is Voldemort? Is it the guy without the nose?" It was so funny... On the last HP instalment, he's still confused, haha, poor thing!

I read the first HP book when I was 14 and immediately got sucked into the fantasy world created by JK Rowling. She was so creative and her writing was humorous, never failed to made me laugh.. Especially with the ear wax flavoured candy. Me and DD used to imagine that our school was Hogwarts and we had Moarning Myrtle in the girls' toilet. We were a bit sad when we finished reading the 7th book as there was nothing to look forward anymore, magic wise.

The saddest children book ever - Bye-bye Harry and gang!

So when they decided to make the Harry Potter movies, you can bet we were super excited!! Now that the last movie will be released soon... It's sadness all over again!

Recommendation: Must must read the books! They are way better than the movies... Let your imagination run wild!!

Book: Sushi for Beginners

Date: 24 December 2010 Author: Marian Keyes She is definitely one of my favourite authors ever. The first book from her that I read was Under the Duvet, and the second was The Other Side of The Story - both I borrowed from UTM's library. She writes about characters with real life issues and manage to make the situation light although it's actually a dark topic. At the end of the day, readers will learn about complicated issues without feeling depressed. She delivers the message and adds humor to it - just brilliant! Plus, I learned a few Irish words! Sushi for Beginners is about the lives of 3 different ladies, all facing depressions. Different characters have a different coping mechanism. Synopsis: Lisa, a beautiful, career oriented lady is the b*tch boss from hell. She'll do whatever it takes to be the best at what she does, even if it means having no friends and family. The thing that drives her over the wall was when she actually sacrificed her marriage to

Book: Eat Pray Love

Author: Elizabeth Gilbert At last... after months of trying to finish this book, I finally did it! No offense to the author, she is a very talented writer. I am just not into depressing stories... because my reading can actually influence my emotions. I like the travelling part... but the search for spiritual relief from all the negative emotions was really too heavy for me. I started reading this book early this year... and had a break when I reached the part when she went to the Ashram in India. Half way through the book, I watched the movie with Julie Zac... which also bored me a bit. I brought this book to Gold Coast, thinking that I can read it on the plane - apparently I made it through only a few pages. However, when I finally got to the Bali part... it was fast reading all the way. The author was no longer depressed, and her stories were all about happiness! Yeaahh!! My Synopsis: This is a true story about the author's journey to find peace within herself after g

Bald Rock National Park, NSW

Date : 3rd November 2013 Bald Rock is a 3-hours drive from Toowoomba and I have been thinking of visiting it since last year. But I was not sure if it was a suitable trip for an infant. However, it is the largest granite monolith in Australia, which means it is a must-go! So best buds, Julie Zac and Zayra came to visit on 1st November. Was not sure where to bring them around Toowoomba. Oh well, let's try hiking then! Sunscreen for everyone!: At first, I was thinking of bringing Kimi's stroller through the Bungoona Walk. The Summit Direct Walk would be out of the question. A lady who just got down advised that it was not a good idea... And thank God for that... (What was I thinking??!) We had a plate of fried rice each at the picnic table to fuel us with energy! The best thing was, my 2 year old son was just as excited as the adults. He wanted to walk (or run) on his own and made it to the top! After walking half way, the view started to become ver
