Big Bad Wolf

the Website

So... 

It's been a while since I last blogged...

Anyway, the Big Bad Wolf is in town!!!!! 

And this is my first time BigBadWolfing.. 

Went there twice now for the current sale. The first time around was on the first day, 6th of Dec...There's  lot of people and I was there like 8.00 a.m. that day. People came with big travel bag(wheeled of course and at first I was like why did they bring that? is it really necessary? but man, I wish I knew better that day) , or with boxes(not a good idea if you ask me.I mean, you have to walk around with box in your hands which said box will be loaded with lots of books. Nope. Not a good idea), and big bags.Shopping bag.Tote. Actually, I kinda don't know what they called it. But I brought that bag with me to the book sale. And unless your bag's straps are sturdy enough to hold the weight of the books that you're going to carry, forget this option. Unfortunately for me, the bag's strap that I brought along wasn't strong enough and it snapped.

Enough babbling

let me show you what I bought that day. All this below RM200. Which is super super super and I mean super cheap. You got hardcover novels at RM8. Like WHAT? tell me how can I not went a little nut inside the hall. Freaking crazy I tell ya.

All this below RM200 \($v$)/. See the bag's strap? Snapped!

All romance. I kinda gravitate towards this kind of genre. No matter how I tried to resist them. Trust me, I do get tired of this thingy called romance what the heck ever, but...I just don't like the other genre. I've tried. It just doesn't work out with me). That Paranormal Romance book up there, was only RM5 and I was, what the heck. Just grab it. Plus the guy's eyes on the cover of the book kinda begged me to buy it. And you know what, the stories in it was okay. Not bad. Not bad at all...

Books for my sister. She make a list of the books she wants and I'm having quite a tough time trying to find them. Kinda like treasure hunting. Finding needle in the haystack. Pfftt...

Books for my class. I'm really happy buying these books. And these were the books that I opened first when I got home.

The second time I went there was today. But this time I just accompanied  my mom(or so I told my self). And I brought this bag. which is a very very good thing(Those books are heavy!). Lesson learned from the first trip!!

Most of these are my mom's cook book. I only grabbed 1 novel, 1 sudoku notebook, and several books for Aulad/my class.




Pros: Those books are super cheap. Like normal price RM50, it'll go down to RM8. Cheap cheap cheap!!

Cons: 
1. Most of the books are old book. Like 2-3 years old. Most.
2. Hunger Games series sold out at the first day itself. And I was there in the morning! I mean, come on!!   =__=
3. The book I want was not there. And I've made quite few rounds to find them
4. BIG freaking hole in my pocket (TT______TT)

Easy On Me

Dah lama tak layan lagu-lagu sebenarnya. Layan lagu ni pun sebab Aina Abdul punya cover and this cover is currently on the loop. This song hits differently when I suddenly realized the meaning of the line "So go easy on me..." I was like straight away imagining the kids saying that line to me....and it feels so heartbreaking..and I feel so sorry and it made me tried harder to be better.. Honestly parenting is tough. Really really tough.. It's going one month more to full 4 years now where I became a single parent to 2 of my sister's kids. Life and things happened to my sister so I step myself in to take care of her kids. I thought then that it was an easy thing for me to do that, but no! Oh God no!! Ya Allah how wrong I was!! My first 2 years in was the hardest and I struggled with the sudden changes I have to made. The 180 adjustment (in every directions) I had to take kinda messed me up a little bit (emotionally and physically).   But I learned  All sorts of things.

A dump post

Rabu dah kejap je minggu ni dah tak ada dah emosional bagai. Alhamdulillah. Sampai tengok cerita Hotel Del Luna part sedih pon, bergenang pon tidak  Part scene sedih tu boleh tak terheran kejap. Cam, kenapa tak meleleh ni? sebab selalunya kalau tengok drama memang senang sangat air hujan turun. Yang aku perasan, diri ni tak boleh terlalu dry sangat emosi tu. Sebab dia bukan betul-betul tak peduli, tapi emosi tu akan build up dan bila dah sampai threshold dia.....mula la break down. Bahaya anyway Many things happened within this little time from the last post. Might be mundane things for others, but not so for me. On Sunday, I accompanied mak to her acquaintance cafe. we had a lovely breakfast together. An english style breakfast.....which is not to my liking and I kept on thinking I want Nasi Lemak! (which they have actually).  and somewhere along our conversations mak touched on when she's 'gone' thingy...I was extremely saddened by that. Like really really sad

Trying is all I can do

This week is an emotional wreck kinda week. Starting from Sunday evening all the way through the week, it's one rocky roller coaster ride. Rasanya hampir semua emosi yang exist this whole universe hadir dalam minggu ni.  Please no more.. Waktu siang tak  terasa sangat sebab serious busy, so otak tak pikir apa. Tapi bila time masa senggang.....Too much feels..too much thoughts... Minggu ni saja First time tidur sambil berendam air mata.  First time menangis sampai mata sembab macam kena tumbuk, dan first time tak dapat tidur sebab menangis. Tapi apa yang aku dapat minggu ni?  It's okay to cry So that I could function well the next day It's okay to feel so much So that I could get closure that I never knew I need And try to move on And to rely to others And to hold on tight on Allah to protect you and your family May next week be better much much much than this week. InsyaAllah.
