just because, Just because. Ha!

1. One book you have read more than once
Cheaters by Erick Dickey Jerome. To date, I’ve read the book 15 times; always with NSYNC’s NSYNC CD playing at the back (and usually raining). It’s how truthful the book is that strikes me, how close to reality that its portrayed and the different angles he showed sets me thinking.

2. One book you would want on a desert island
The Riverside Shakespeare, the whole truckload of everybits then. Everything for everything, right or not? Voilà!

3. One book that made you laugh
Breakfast @ tiffs by Truman Capote. Holly is very cute, certainly. I know its a story but sometimes its more than a story ain't it? I like that she eats her breakfast whilst looking at tiffs, and her goal of finding a place like tiffs cos it makes her feel at home. I wish I could not think about things like money, and go round the world looking for my own tiff - and also housing lil parties wherever I am, and maybe I'd try to forget my keys too.

4. One book that made you cry
Luna by Julie Anne Peters. It's like an injection that goes straight to the heart, my heart. I wish...

5. One book you wish you had written
The Naked Face by Sidney Sheldon. Its not actually that I wished I wrote but I kinda hope I had that “thing” in me to be able produce such work.

6. One book you wish had never been written
David Beckham’s pictorial? Haha, that includes endless photos of him - in the field, at home, with Posh, with clothes, and of course, without em. To me, there ain't anything that's "not" to be written. More like, they're not suppose to be printed - anything that doesn't have a soul and anything that a soul isn't put in.

7. One book you are currently reading
I'm not actually reading anything now. I finished Sheldon's Best Laid Plans last night but there is a book I'm halfway though. Every Breath you take by Judith McNaught. I actually stopped reading that book at page 88 because I’m so distracted by all other stuffs. From when I stopped that book, I’ve finish 3 Sheldon and 1 Lisa Kleypas.

8. One book you have been meaning to read
Vanishing Acts by Jolie Picoult. I went through Sister’s Keeper sometime ago and its too soon, too poignant to read yet another one of this. In a while, maybe. Soon, I say. I’d say I finish SK some, let’s see, 1 year ago?

9. One book that changed your life
The Darkest Longings by Susan Lewis. I bought the book myself when I was 11. I remember mph at, I don’t remember where (probably Heeren actually). T’was the biggest bookstore to me at that pt of time, and I remember they had books so neatly stacked. Susan Lewis had two rows to herself. I can’t find this scene anymore and yes, it makes me feel so nostalgic.

It changed my life, because it’s the first book I picked up when I was 13. My reading journey started from there. My second book was Just Friends by Robyn Sisman, I took it to school and Annabell saw. She borrowed then books started to flow. To cut the story short, Sylmul then brought her Judith McNaught, then the wind started blowing,

10. Now tag five people
I don’t actually think anyone but if you feel like, go ahead.


I could get so losts in books sometimes. Cos some tell tales so poignant that leaves me speechless. Everyone has a secret, I found out my own secret through stories told by people. A secret so secretive that I didn't even know.

Okay, I think I've managed to corner my sister into going 伍佰&张震岳 with me. How can anyone miss a concert like that? They're both very powerful performers! :D

Musik: Nelly Furtado ft Timbaland - Promiscuous
