Lets talk about P.S. I Love You

eu amo te katanya......


I’ve just finish reading P.S I LOVE YOU and I have to agree with Zira that the novel is full with emotions because there are quite a few parts in the story that makes me want to sheered some tears. The part when she’s missing her husband so badly, the part when she goes to her mom and she instantly able to ease her pain (mothers have magic kan) and the part with her best friends, Denise and Sharon. By the way I love all the character in the story because I think they are all different yet all have their own unique characters and that’s make the story very very interesting. Although, like most of novel based movies, there are a lot of changes from the actual novel, I think the movie would be more interesting if they just follow the whole story straight from the novel because it’s already very fun and interesting. As I were reading the novel, I can imagine how it’s like if it’s were in a movie. Like the part where she’s trying to catch the leprechaun that been working in her garden, the part when Declan was making a movie about the “Girls in the city” (that would be really fun if it were in the movie), the part where they when for a vacations at a beach and Denise got sunburn on her butt ( that would be really funny if it were in the movie), the part when Holly got a job at an ad agency with a cool boss ( in the movie Holly finally work as a shoes designer), the part when the girls doing a hen party for Denise before her wedding ( this should be in the movie) and a lot more that I can think of but not in the movie. Oh, anyway, in the book Holly have a brother, Jack, who are very close to her since they were little that is very sweet if it were in the movie. And also her sister Ciara, in the movie she is this sweet little sister that came home to from overseas on Gerry’s funerals but in the books Ciara is more then that, she have a red hair and just got back from Australia did a lot of crazy things and she’s a bit crazy.

To me the movie is still good, with the famous actors and great view of Ireland BUT to me the Novel is much better then the movie, it is more touching, funnier and more interesting but then again, if they really want to follow the whole story exactly from the book, the movie could be as long as five hours..Hehehe... Oh, by the way, I think Lisa Kudrow is ultimately the best person to play Denise character because Denise is really2 like her. Kudos to the movie maker for that. Conclusions: I absolutely recommend this book to all.

P/S: Currently I’m reading Confession of a shopaholic. Baru bace sikit dah ade banyak beza dah, tapi rasenye buku ni best jugak.

Lets talk about the devil wears prada book review


I’ve just finish reading this novel yesterday. I know, I took too long to finish this one, because for some reason I only “feel” to read the book when I’m in the train and while waiting for hubby to pick me up after work. Time lain tak berape nak feel pulak. Mase g Penang tu pun, kejap je sebenarnye aku bace sebab obviously most of the time I’m busy with my camera. But at last, after one month, I’m done reading it.

My verdict is: It’s sooooooo much, very very different from the movie. It’s like almost totally different from the movie, the story line is a tiny bit the same (that Andrea was hired as second assistant for Miranda Priestly and she don’t know who Miranda is and she’s poor at dressing) but most of it is different. Like in the book Andrea did not live with her boyfriend but she first stay with two Indian girls then she move in with her bestfriend Lily, and in the book Lily does not work at art gallery but she’s a student and she’s an alcoholic, and in the book Andrea didn’t have sex with the handsome writer, she just make out a little at the party hosted by Christian’s parents. Banyak lagi la yang tak same. The only thing that is very similar between the movie and the book is the NAME of the character, but still, how the character looks is also different, like Nigel is not a short and bold gay friend like in the movie, he’s a tall skinny gay man with black hair. And Emily is not British and always sarcastic like in the movie( I really adore her character in that movie) but she’s a stylish assistant who are talkative and always helps Andy’s although they disagrees a lot because in this book Emily always defending Miranda. Even Miranda’s character is different. She’s not blond with short bobsy style hair but in the book Miranda is very skinny, with long hair and she’s British...

So I’ve made my point that both the books and the movie have A LOT of different but still I enjoy the book. But I have to say that I love the movie better. Some people might not agree with me but I think the way they change the storyline, change the character and the choice of actors really made that movie much much better then the original novel. Anyway as for the ending of the story, although it’s totally different from the movie, but still it’s a sweet ending and a great way to end the novel.

Lets talk about Cecelia Ahern books and a devil

Harini aku beli 3 novel baru sebab kat Times bookstore Pavilion ade sale buy 3 for 2 (3 books for the price of 2 books) dan buku2nya terdiri dari buku2 yg aku memang teringin nak baca, buku Cecelia Ahern, lalu terus aku beli. Bukan ape, takut terlepas lagi peluang keemasan ni sebab dulu pernah ade offer sekali buku2 minah tu, aku dah nampak dah tapi aku dok delay2 beli. By the time aku nak beli, diorang dah tukar offer tu kepada buku lain plak, buku tak berape aku nak gemar. Jadi kali ni aku nampak terus aku rembat laju2.

A place called here

Since Sandy Shortt’s childhood classmate disappeared twenty years ago, Sandy has been obsessed with missing things. Finding becomes her goal- whether it’s the sock that vanished in the washing machine, the car keys she misplaced or the graver issue of finding the people who vanish from their lives. Sandy dedicates her life to finding these missing people, offering devastated families a flicker of hope. Jack Ruttle is one of those desperate people. It’s been a year since his brother Donal vanished into thin air. Thinking Sandy Shortt could well be the answer to his prayers, he embarks on a quest to find her. But when Sandy goes missing too, she stumbles upon the place - and people - she’s been looking for all her life. A world away from her loved ones and the home she ran from for so long, Sandy soon resorts to her old habit again, searching. Though this time, she is desperately trying to find her way home…

Buku ni memang aku dah lama teringin nak beli sebab sinopsys dia macam menarik sangat.

P.S.I Love you

Some people wait their whole lives to find their soul mates. But not Holly and Gerry.Childhood sweethearts, they could finish each other's sentences and even when they fought, they laughed. No one could imagine Holly and Gerry without each other.Until the unthinkable happens. Gerry's death devastates Holly. But as her 30th birthday looms, Gerry comes back to her. He's left her a bundle of notes, gently guiding Holly into her new life without him, each note signed "P.S. I Love You."As the notes are gradually opened, and as the year unfolds, Holly is both cheered up and challenged. The man who knows her better than anyone sets out to teach her that life goes on. With some help from her friends, and her noisy and loving family, Holly finds herself laughing, crying, singing, dancing - and being braver than ever before.Life is for living, she realises - but it always helps if there's an angel watching over you.

Ade orang cakap buku ni lagi best dari movie dia. I’ve watched the movie and I think its not bad, mostly because of Gerald Butler and Lisa Kudrow @ phoebe is acting in it. But I don’t think Hilary Swank is the most suitable person for the role of Holly though, because Gerald Butler is just to god damn gorgeous to be her husband, sorry Hilary. Another reason is because most of the movie was taken place in Ireland and the scenery of Ireland was so breathtaking, I just love looking at it.


The devil wears Prada

When Andrea first sets foot in the plush Manhattan offices of Runway she knows nothing. She’s never heard of the world’s most fashionable magazine, or its feared and fawned-over editor, Miranda Priestly.

Soon she knows way too much.

She knows it’s a sacking offense to wear less than a three-inch heel to work – but there’s always a fresh pair of Manolos in the accessories cupboard.

She knows that eight stone is fat. That you can charge anything – cars, manicures, clothes – to the Runway account, but you must never leave your desk, or let Miranda’s coffee get cold. That at 3 am, when your boyfriend’s dumping you because you’re always working and your best friend’s just been arrested, if Miranda phones with her latest unreasonable demand, you jump.

Most of all, Andrea knows that Miranda is a monster boss who makes Cruella de Vil look like fluffy bunny. But this is her big break, and it’s all going to be worth it in the end.

Isn’t it?

I’ve watched the movie; I love the movie very much, now I want to read the book and see if it is as good as the movie or if it’s better. But one of my friend said the book is better, well I guess I will find it out soon because I’m reading this one first.

Lets talk about some little black dresses

I just finish reading this book TODAY:

Forget About it


A funny and original novel about how to really get away from it all!

You know life can’t be going that well when getting hit by a car is the best thing that happens to you all week. But although not generally considered to be a Good Thing, for Jordan Landeua, desperate to escape her nightmare family, her dead-end job, and most of all her lying, cheating boyfriend, it’s the perfect opportunity to start over. Coming to in hospital after the accident she decides to fake amnesia and reinvent herself. It’s goodbye to Jordan the pushover and hello to the life she’s always dreamed of.

But then the unthinkable happens and she has to start over for real. Now Jordan must decide what (and who) honestly makes her happy and figure out how best to live a truly memorable life...

My comment: The storyline is good but it’s a bit slow in the beginning, only once she get hit by a car and pretend she had amnesia ( which is at the middle of the story, after reading first half of kinda dragging start) that the story starting to become interesting. The whole story is somewhat ala “maid of honor”.

I just bought this book TODAY:



The Unfortunate Miss Fortunes

First, Dee. Spends a lot of time trying to control her sisters, her passions and her shape-shifting. especially when gorgeous Danny James is about.

Then, Lizzie. Determined to save the family from ruin, even if it means causing chaos in the cosmos (and messing with a handsome sorcerer's heart)

Finally, Mare. Possessor of telekinetic powers, self-proclaimed Queen of the Universe. and manager of the local Value Video. The last thing she needs is the ex-boyfriend who broke her heart to come strolling back into town.

They're about to have the worst weekend of their lives. Unless they can figure out how the hell to work their magic powers.

Note: have not starting reading it yet, but I have a feeling its ala “charmed” because it’s about 3 sisters with special super powers. Interesting huh…What not so interesting is the LBD books price is now increased to RM 21.90…I guess nothings good stays cheep right…

Lets talk about jiwang karatzz

Semalam aku beli Novel baru kat MPH Sg Wang Plaza. Aku beli novel melayu, novel cinta gitu, kalau laki aku nampak aku baca buku ni mesti dia kata aku jiwang karat sebab haritu dia cerita receptionist kat office dia minah jiwang sebab dia nampak minah tu baca novel cinta melayu,jahat kan dia.Aku pun dah lama gila tak baca novel cinta melayu ni. Time aku fly dulu selalu jugak aku bawak travel buat baca masa boring2 kat hotel sorang2, lagi pun masa tu aku pun tgh bercinta kan, so memang agak jiwang skit la,hehehe. Dulu aku suka baca novel Norhayati Berahim. Tapi sekarang ni memang dah lama tak baca novel macam ni, asyik layan novel orang putih je pulak. Jadi, kenapa tiba2 aku beli novel cinta melayu ni ?

Kerana :

1. Lunch partner aku si Noq tu kata cerita ni sedih gila, banyak kali dia promo dan dia kata semua yg baca buku ni nangis banyak kali. Dia sendiri termenangis masa baca kat dalam komuter tapi cover2 gitu,heheh. So aku pun nak tengok sejauh mana sedihnya cerita ni seperti yg digembar gemburkan.

2. Sebab aku dah banyak sangat buku LBD kat dalam drawer kat office ni ( nak bawak balik letak kat rak buku rumah takut laki aku nampak pastu dia bising, dia suruh aku baca buku agama katanya, waaaaaa, tak solehah kah aku ?). So, saje la ingat nak tukar angin kejap. By the way bila aku kira2 aku dah ade 11 buah buku LBD yg aku beli dan baca continuously.

3. Sebab harga novel melayu ni same je ngan LBD tu, Cuma RM19.90 jek. So no biggie. Novel omputeh karang satu dah RM35.90. Aku kan save budget di zaman ekonomi meleset ni.

Buku ape kah yang aku beli:
Tak pernah baca buku penulis ni, first time ni.

Synopsis di belakng buku:

“ Jangan salah faham Puan Sri. Kemaafan yang diberi tidak akan sama sekali menjadikan saya lupa pada kedudukan diri saya ini. Saya tak boleh membuang pangkat itu ke tepi hanya kerana kesalahan yang pernah dibuat pada saya.”

“ Saya telah menjadi balu sebelum masanya dan anak-anak saya juga telah menjadi anak yatim sebelum masanya. Sembilan bulan saya mengandung mereka tanpa suami di sisi. Saya pekakkan telinga mendengar cemuhan masyarakat sekeliling.”

Andai itu takdir-NYA, dia akan menempuhinya dengan tabah dan sabar. Apa yang penting sekarang adalah kebahagiaan anaknya, dania. Sekurang-kurangnya, bila Aleya menutup mata, kehidupan Dania akan terbela.

“Selama aku meniti liku-liku kehidupan yang penuh dengan onak dan duri ini, aku tidak pernah pasrah dalam hidupku. Andai itu takdir-NYA sebelum menggapai bahagia aku redha. Namun sampai waktu apabila aku tidak mampu untuk bertahan lagi, hatiku lebih keras dari kerikil.”

Waaaaaaaaahhh, agak drama sangat kan synopsis dia, pastu nampak cam watak utama tu kene aniaya jek. Aku sebenarnya tak suka cerita2 tak kesahlah novel mahupun movie atau drama swasta atau pun Cinetron sekali pon yang watak utamanya kene aniaya. Aku tak suka kalau cerita orang baik kene aniaya pastu orang baik tu sabar jek, biarkan je org jahat terlepas dan tak baling muka orang jahat ngan selipar jepun atau jerit balik kat si jahat tu se’das’ dua. Adakah ini bermakna aku suka jerit kat orang? Tidak kawan- kawan, aku adlah orang yang sopan santun dan pemalu, sebab tu selalu kene aniaya kat office ni. Benciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.
Note:
Page 123 - sedih la pulak, sampai termeleleh air mata. Kat opis ni, so cover skit.
Page 170, 179, 181 - sedih tau, meleleh2 air hidung aku nak tahan nangis. Takci la sentuh bab anak2 ni harus la aku sedih.
Page 260,365,370,381 dan 399 jugak sedih, pendek kata buku ni memang penuh ngan cerita sedih, jadi disarankan kepada sesiapa yg nak baca buku ni supaya bacalah di rumah atau di tempat2 yg lebih privacy untuk mendapatkan kepuasan yg maksima.

Lets talk about Thick books, Cecelia Ahern and Handbag

Harini aku agak bosan, lunch pon ingat nak makan roti je so g la jalan kat Pavilion. Pas beki roti aku g times bookstore, niat di hati nak tengok kalau2 little black dress ade stock baru, sekali takde, semua buku2 lame je. Hampes. Since mase banyak lagi aku pon jalan la tengok buku2 lain. Tiba2 rase macam nak try bace buku tebal plak. FYI, walau pun aku suka baca novel tapi aku tak suka baca yg tebal2.

Basically bila aku nak beli buku, ciri2 yg aku tengok ialah:

1. Cover buku tu kene la cantik sebab aku suka bace buku while waiting( waiting for hubby, train, turn etc), so cover buku tu mesti la cantik supaya seronok aku nak keluarkan dan baca di khalayak ramai.

2. Buku itu mesti la tidak terlalu tebal sebab takut bila beli yg tebal2 sekali buku tu bosan, end up aku nak habiskan bace satu buku tebal tu makan tahun plak. Kalau tak habiskan bace karang rase membazir pulak. kan penyeksaan tu namenye.

3. Harganya mesti la tidak mahal atau berpatutan dengan ketebalan buku itu. In other words, kalau buku u tebal tapi murah ( dan ade ciri2 lain yg aku suka) maka lebih besar la possibility aku nak beli buku tu and vice versa.

4. Jalan cerita buku tu mesti la best. Aku paling suka bace buku yg ala2 romantic and comady, yg girlie2, ade kene mengene dengan fashion world or something glamour. Aku paling tak suka buku yg cerita pasal era dulu2, ade king and queen la, wizard of oz la, ala2 pride and prejudice la, era2 camtu aku tak suka. Yg selain dari tu macam horror ke, investigation ke, dan sebagainya tu aku boleh la jugak layan kalau synopsis dia cam best.

Although, aku pernah terbace satu buku ni, pasal era 1950 camtu which surprisingly I found it very interesting and the story is not even about love or anything romantic but more about some mystery of this family tapi aku lupa ape tajuk dia, kalau aku ingat nanti aku bg tau ek. Buku tu aku beli nak bg hadiah kat kawan, tapi aku bace dulu sampai habis baru aku bg, keji kan aku. Tapi nak ikut lagi bagus tau, sebab aku tau buku yg aku bg dia tu memang confirm best and confirm dia puas hati punya. Hehehe

So tadi aku tengok2 la buku2 Author2 yg famous2 dan buku2 nye selalunya tebal2 Sidney Sheldon, Danielle Steel, Stephen King, Dan Brown tapi dalam banyak2 tu aku Cuma interested kat satu buku je. By Stephen King and the title is Needful Things. Synopsis dia memang menarik sangat. Ade sape2 pernah bace?


Tapi aku tak terus beli, aku jalan2 tengok buku yg lain pulak and jumpa satu lagi buku yg ala2 menarik tapi tak setebal buku Stephen King tu, this time the author is Cecelia Ahern, A place called here. Ade sape2 pernah bace yg ni pulak? Both books have some sort of mysterious kick about them, not the typical chick lit book that I always go for.



Nak beli yg mane ek? Aku consider punya consider tiba2 aku rase dua2 pun tak boleh beli sekarang, kene postpone dulu sebab tengah2 bulan ni aku macam tak banyak duit je. Jadi untuk tidak menghampakan diri sendiri aku beli buku little black dress titled Handbag and Homicide. Yg ni cam best jugak dan murah, Cuma RM 17.91 je after discount.



Here is the synopsis:

Is Haley Randolph about to become a fashion victim?

When Haley says she’d kill for the latest fashions, she doesn’t actually mean it. Of course she quite happily stamp on feet, pull hair and elbow rivals out of the way to get to anew designer bag. But when her boss at Holt’s department store is discovered dead in the store room, fingers are pointed firmly at her! If Haley’s going to escape jail (not to mention the orange prison jumpsuit) she must find the murderer and prove her innocence. At least the hunky Ty Cameron seems to be on her side…..

A sharp, comic debut combining mystery, romance and shopping – What more could a girl want!

Lets talk about Confessions of a Shopaholic


This morning on the way to the office i saw this poster on the billboard and immeidately i know that i want to watch this movie and i bet almost every women regardless if they are a shopaholic or not also wanted to watch this movie as well. By the way, since i watch Isla Fisher act in Defenitely, Maybe i begin to like her acting and she 's now in my list of Fav Female Actors together with Scarlett Johansson, Kate Hudson, Cameron Diaz and Drew Berrymore.

Here is the synopsys of the movie:

Based on the books "Confessions of a Shopaholic" and "Shopaholic Takes Manhattan" by Sophie Kinsella. Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher) is a 25 year old who lives with her best friend Suze (Krysten Ritter) in Suze's flat (paying her friend rent that is well below market value), in a trendy part of town. Rebecca has a very boring job writing for a financial magazine. She has a shopping addiction and her crap job doesn't pay enough. Her bills are piling up, so she tries cutting back (complete fiasco), then she tries making more money (another fiasco). Eventually, Becky discovers a story that she is truly invested in. Exposing the story gets the attention of a colleague that she hasn't quite figured out yet. Some drama ensues as she snags the guy, and she attempts to pay off her ever-growing debt. But as she draws closer to her ultimate goal of writing for renowned fashion magazine Alette, she questions her true ambitions and must determine if overcoming her "shopaholic" condition will bring her real happiness.

Another movie that’s inspired from a chick lit novel, I have a great feeling this movie gonna be another fav of mine after “in her shoes” and “the devil wears prada”. After all, the story is about shopaholic women, helloooooooo.

Talking about novel inspired movies, I think this LBD novel would be great as a movie:


I’ve read a lot of novel but this one, as I finish reading it, the first thing that came in my mind is that I think this story will be great on the silver screen. Its fun and funny, the main character goes everywhere, crashing parties, in disguise all the time plus she have a magical gives, she can plant pictures in other peoples mind just by touching them. Try reading this one and I guarantee you’ll agree with me. Anyway, you can read the synopsis from my earlier post here.

Lets talk about foods that harm foods that heal



My husband bought this book from readers digest and just received it last week. i didnt know about it untill he shows it to me. It's quite expensive but looking at the thickness and the beautiful picture on the hard cover, my first impression was 'it's worth it'. (yap, sometimes i tend to be shallow to buy things ONLY because of how it looks, SOMETIMES)

But the best part is of course the contains of the book. As written on the cover ' an A-Z GUIDE to safe and healthy eating' , that's exactly what's the book is about and once you start reading it you dont want to stop ( except for me, i have my baby to attend to hehehe). Just name it, any foods, disease, veggies, pasta, basically anything to do with health and food are in it (yesterday i look for sushi hehe). For food, it will explain the pros and cons of it, the calories, the vitamins and minerals, if the food is bad for health then what kind of illness can occurs and stuff like that. It's pretty much a health dictionary, anything you want to know from A to Z. So, this book is really really worth buying.

i google the book and this is what it says:

The first edition--over 6 million copies sold--changed the way the nation looked at food and its impact on our bodies. This edition builds on that foundation with hundreds of A-Z entries updated with scientific, nutritional, and medical information that reflects the latest research--all in a new reader-friendly, easy-to-read, two-column format.

Lets talk about new books

I bought 2 more little black dress novel today. He Loves Lucy and Hex and the single girl. Here are the synopsis:



Most women would KILL to have round the clock access to personal trainer/demi-god Theo Redmond. But Lucy Cunningham’s starting to wish she’d never laid eyes on him!

When marketing exec Lucy pitched the idea of reality TV show in which Theo took a ‘fitness-challenged’ women, and turned her from flabby to fabulous, she wasn’t planning on being a star. But then, she reasons, she could stand to loose a few pounds, only not with the whole of Miami and gorgeous Theo watching. But then again for every pound she loses she gains big bucks….

As Lucy sweats her way into a whole new life, things start to heat up between her and Theo. But what can a chocoholic and gym bunny possibly have in common? Or could Lucy and Theo be about to discover that appearances can be deceptive – and true love lies somewhere between pizza and Pilates?
Note: Lucy is trying to loose weight, and so do i..

Comment: I've finished this book, and it doesnt really impress me, a bit disapointed with Theo's character coz at the begining he's like a perfect guy, hensome, athletic, good hearted and all but once he feel for Lucy he suddently became sex maniac, sex is all he's thinking when he sees Lucy. so pathetic. But the ending is somewhat fair.



Do you think that access to magical powers would help your love life? Who doesn’t?

Which is where good witch Emma Hutch comes in. By day, she’s just your average, stylish girl about town…
By Night, she puts her witchy ways to the best possible use, casting spells to match Manhattan ladies to the men of their dreams – for a small fee of course.

In fact, she’s so good at her jobs that business is booming. The only snag is her own love life, witch is distinctly lacking in sparkle. But when Emma is hired to match the city’s most eligible bachelor with and evil scheming socialite, suddenly her supernatural work ethic is put to the test. And just maybe it’s time to break the rules and turn a little magic onto her self.

Note: Doesn’t that synopsis sound undeniably and magically interesting which is why I have to have this book.

So, I’ll start with “I love Lucy” first because that one is closer to my heart, duhh…its about a fat women trying to be skinnyyy…and once I’m finish these books I’ll give my comments ok…oh, by the way, I think I forget to mention that this books only cost RM19.90 each which is why I can afford to buy 3 of these book in a month, because they are cheep plus they are not so thick either which makes it even better coz I’m not into thick books, I’ll get bored just to look at it and I don’t want to risk buying one and end up finding that the story are bore to death.

lets talk about my favorite movie and book

OK, since everybody else in the office are breaking the internet rules then so will i, muahaha. So lets talk about another favorite movie of mine, The Devils Wear Prada.

Aku suka sgt movie ni and i've watch it many times, possibly more than 10 times, the first time is on cinema at GSC midvally a few years back and the rest on dvd. not only that i love the storyline because it's funny, most importainly i love the shoes, the bags, the belts, the boots, the necklace, the fashions in it. I even like to watch all those skinny pretty womens, adore and envy them, in a way it motivate me to be skinny again because who dont want to look like them right.

Interestingly, although meryl streep are great in this film and anne hathaway are funny, it's not their characters that attracts me, its the first assistant, emily witch in real world are also name emily, emily blunt. The way she's being sarcastics and pain in the ass are really hilarious to me, i really like watching her in this movie more then anyone else. Does that mean i like sarcastic peoples, nop, only likes them in films. Do you know who she is dating, michael buble'.

I know that this film are based on a novel, always thinking of buying it but never did, so last tuesday i went to borders times square to buy the novel (you know la, without internet in the office i feel like sleeping the whole day, gila boring) but then i came across this novel by little black dress, my favorite publisher, and the story are pretty much the same as the devil wears prada and i bought it instead because it's cheaper.hehehe. Plus i've bought quite a few books from little black dress series and i only dislike one of it, the rest are great, so i think this book are gonna bee great to. Well i've read almost half of it so far(i read it in the office during my free time witch is a lot lately) and it's funny as always. All of their novels are kinda chicky, funny story with a pinch of sex to make it interesting, not the hot n steamy kind of sex though, the very funny n sweet part of sex. Try and read one of these novel, you'll know. So, right now i'm reading this book:

Synopsis

Memoirs are Made of This

How to get ahead in journalism:
1. Take a job as a PA to a glamorous writer, like Susanna Hyde, author of the wildly popular sex column Nothing to Hyde
2. Spend your days running errands, and delivering ‘you’ve been dumped’ messages to ex-lovers who are yesterday’s news. Realise life in Manhattan is not as glamorous as you expected
3. But when the boss asks you to cover her column, do not, repeat not, prove to be better at writing about sex than she is…
4. And when one day you accidentally hit it off a little too well with Susanna’s latest ex-toy-boy, sexy writer Josh O’Connell, keep this information very secret from her…

Note: i've just finish reading the book and it's so fantastic, i feel like i want to write a memoir of my own. Well, now that i've finish with this book faster then i've expected (i thought it will last about a month but i can't stop reading it) now i have to buy my self another book to read or should i say another little black dress.

Lets talk about shoes

good morning,

Itu dia, pagi2 lagi dah start menulis blog nih. Pagi ni aku masuk office on time okey, 8.30pg aku dah terpacak kat office ni (selalunye ala2 kul 9 camtu baru aku sampai) tapi bos aku boleh tak ade pulak untuk menyaksikan keajaiban yg jarang berlaku ni. Selalu kalau aku masuk lambat tu ade je dia. Nyampah tau. Jadi kerane bos aku takde make aku pon mengular la buat keje lain( lagi pon time2 market down ni memang tak banyak keje pon,bukannye aku yg malas tau, tolong sket) iaitu buat post baru untuk blog aku yg baru nak hidup ni.

So, jom kite sembang pasal kasut nak tak. Aku kan suke gile kasut dan kerane itu la kasut aku banyak gile kat rumah tu.Dua kabinet kasut kat rumah tu penuh ngan kasut aku je tapi ade la kasut laki aku sikit2 (buat penuh kabinet je kasut dia tu, dah la besar,hehehe). Tapi jgn tertipu sebab kabinet tu takde besar mane pon cik jah, tinggi paras2 peha aku je pastu panjang pon ala2 satu meter gitu (kan selalu beli kain ela kire meter kan, so agak2 la ye). Dulu mase pakai rak kasut je lagi meriah kasut aku sebab rak tu dah bertingkat 3 tapi sejak dah pakai kabinet kasut ni (laki aku suruh tukar, tak kemas pakai rak kasut kate dia,waaaa) make aku pon termakse mereducekan kasut2 aku dan meletgo kasut2 aku yg dah buruk tapi aku sayang nak buang.hehehe.

Jadi kenape di pagi ini aku nak cerita pasal kasut? Sebab harini aku pegi keje pakai kasut tinggi yg setinggi seinci setengah ni (tak tinggi mane pon kan). Takde la terrer mane pon kan tapi sebab sejak aku bersalin ni aku tak pernah pakai kasut tinggi g keje (pernah try pakai g shopping mall tapi betis aku sakit la lame2) disebabkan memikirkan badan aku yg berat ni(we'll talk about that soon), so sebelum ni aku pakai sandle makcik2 saje. Alahai, sandle yg tak tinggi mane, tak cantik mane tapi selesa dipakai tu la(mak aku tengok sandle tu dia kate lawa, sebab dia kan makcik). Jadi harini tetibe aku rase vogue la pulak bila pakai kasut tinggi ni walaupun pada hakikat nye takde la vogue mane pun kan tapi apebila kita rase vogue, tiba2 kita punye confident pon akan mari betul tak. Dan secara tak langsung aku berjalan pon jadi macam orang ala2 rajin g keje walaupun hakikatnye cuma light2 sugi je rajin aku tu senah oi.

Aku sebenarnye gian gile nak pakai kasut tinggi. Time mengandung dah la tak boleh pakai, dah tu ingat bila dah bersalin boleh la kan tapi rupanya haram tak boleh jugak. Sekarang ni rase malas dah nak masuk kedai kasut sebab bila tengok kasut tinggi cantik2 tu tapi aku tak boleh pakai aku ketab bibir gigit jari okey, benci tau. Kalau nak tau kan, kat bawah meja aku ni pon ade kasut tinggi ala2 macam gambar kat atas tu tapi warna hitam dan kasut ni sentiasa standby kat office ni utk aku pakai di mase gian aku datang,hehehe. Aku tak gian dadah ok, aku gian nak melawa sajork. Aku suka kasut macam mane tau, kasut yg macam kat atas tu kalau boleh aku nak lagi 3 color merah, pink,putih boleh gitu. Aku memang suka yg jenis kilat2, ade riben2 yg cute2 tu, ade patern2 bunga2 pon cantik gak tapi tak over sgt la, janji warna dia sama ada hitam,putih,merah,pink,gold,silver. Color lain aku kureng la sikit. Takpe la, satu hari nanti bila aku dah berjaya mengurangkan berat badan yang melampau ni aku akan beli kasut baru sampai aku puas hati. Insyaallah kalau aku berjaya nanti dengan bangganya aku syer kat sini ok.
One more thing, pada sesiapa yg juga peminat kasut macam aku, i'll guaranty that you'll love this movie. I've watch it again and again and again and i even bought the book afterwords. So why dont you give it a try.
