A Walk to Remember

I finished reading the novel A Walk to Remember some time last week.
That was the second time I read the whole book all the way to the end. 
Given that I not a fan of love novels, the reason why I even bothered that novel the first time a few years ago was because someone wanted me to, and that someone is no longer with me, of course.
As many of you might be able to recall, I finished The Great Gatsby earlier this month, thus as I browsing through the folders in my PC, I ran into my Nicholas Sparks folder. I thought to myself, hey why if you try reading this book again?

As I was lying down on my bed, reading the novel on my Kindle as the raindrops kept bashing on my windows, the story felt so refreshing. While I was tapping the screen of my Kindle, turning the pages, the whole plot came back to me. 

And by the time I finished the whole book in a few days time (being the slow reader that I am), I felt that the story made a totally different impression on me this time around. The plot was the same, but the message somehow felt different. Forgive me, but after giving it much thought, I still can't get my head around it. I can't really find the way how to describe it to you. 

All in all, it's a very beautiful story. For me, it felt a bit personal. There was something there.

I leave the rest to you.......

If you could see me now...

I like this song very much. I don't really know why. To begin with, I am in no way successful. Think not of me as being ungrateful, but I personally feel that there is still much more left for me to be done. Though looking back, I can't help to ask myself, if people from my past could see me now, what would they think of me? But as I sat by the window, looking out into the blackness of the night as the rain trickles down the glass, who from my past would I like to see me now? I can't really think of any. Yes, a few familiar names did came into mind, however I am doubtful whether those are really the faces I want to see again in my life. If I could only pick a single individual, who would it be? If so, I wish to see Ang Sensei. She was my class teacher when I was in form 1. I never had the privilege to actually study anything with her since I took up a different foreign language at the time. Despite all that, whenever I had the chance to be with her, she neve...

Kisah si ayah dan anaknya....

Today I would like to share a story with all of you; a story about a father and his son. Si anak sedang menuntut di sebuah kolej di ibukota, manakala bapanya tinggal di kampung bersama si ibu. Pada suatu hari, si bapa menelefon anaknya untuk bertanya khabar. Mereka berdua mula berbual tentang pelajaran si anak, kesihatan dan perihal keadaannya di sana; suatu dialog yang sering didengari antara seorang bapa dan anaknya. Setelah beberapa minit, si bapa memulakan ceritanya. Rupa-rupanya, si bapa ingin bercerita tentang kereta baru yang dihadiahkan oleh si abang kepadanya. Si bapa bercerita dengan penuh semangat sehinggakan si anak yang berada di hujung talian mula tersenyum. ‘Alhamdulillah, betapa gembiranya bapaku dapat kereta baru’, detikan hati si anak. Kemudian, si bapa pula memberitahu yang dia kini berada di hospital. Si bapa jatuh tergelincir seawal pagi tadi semasa dia baru sahaja keluar dari rumah. Dia mengalami kecederaan ringan di dagu dan kaki. Setel...

what do u think about ktj? i mean studying and living at ktj.. if u had any other choices, would u still choose ktj for ur a level?

when i think about coming here, i'd always think of it as my 2nd chance of being in a residential school. Not that i didn't have enough experiences after being stuck in a boys residential school for 5 long years, but I take this opportunity of being here as a chance to relive all those experiences and to see how much I've matured. Living here is nice, though there are still too much rules to abide to, but at least they don't have wardens who chase you around at night carrying a cane! If i had a choice other than this place, I'd say i might not want to go anywhere else. tell me what you wanna know about me...
