What's next?

After reading a soul-soothing and emotional book, time for something purely entertaining and exciting!

The Garden of Evening Mists

Finally finished reading "The Garden of Evening Mists" last Wednesday! How did I feel after finishing? Satisfied! The same way I felt after reading "The Gift of Rain".

Not a good week so far...

It has not been a good week so far. Water leaked into my car when there's heavy rain; the refrigeration gas has depleted, therefore no air-con in car; accidentally locked the online account of my mobile service provider because I forgot my password. Now have to contact my service provider and have my car fixed this weekend...

How I spent my Labour Day

'Nuff said!

Limited Edition from Kinokuniya

Yesterday, I went straight to Kinokuniya after work and look for the limited edition The Garden of Evening Mists. Conveniently located just next to the entrance, it's impossible for anyone to miss it.

I couldn't agree more!

Something said by Malaysian author Tan Twan Eng that I couldn't agree more:

“The popularity of e-book readers will keep rising, but I believe that a beautifully produced book, one that was created with a great deal of care and attention to detail, will always find a home on the book-lover’s shelf.”
Quoted from The Star Online, 28 April 2013.

Surviving the apocalypse

The post-apocalyptic worlds that we've seen showing in the movies and TVs lately were zombie infestation, viral outbreaks, alien invasions, doomsday prophecies, etc. It's getting a bit over-repetitive and boring, too much drama, and there were so many of such movies that came out before and after our supposedly the end of the world (Remember 21 December 2012?). I suppose that why reading this book was much more refreshing and has more sense of reality to it.
