Assalamualaikum people.

Nature and places. Their beauty silence me and worship our creator more and more. It's been one of my dreams to travel around the world. Get a passport, grab a bagpack and lovely clothes and go wherever I want to. London, India, China, Australia, New Zealand, Rome, Italy, Brazil and I can keep listing all places for entire day cause I'm eager to go out there and watch the culture, foods, view, religion and so on. Everything!

Since little, my dad love to brought us everywhere just to create great memories and visited places. He loves nature as much as I did. I think I took some of his genes and spread it to me. Haha. I envy my dad because he had been like everywhere in this country. He got a happy face with a nice scenery and places and yes, with some nice people. Every pictures he had have their own meaning. 

I have that kind of pictures too but not as much as my dad because I didn't really have that chance. I once thought, I want to be like western people which travel other country, visit all places, have part-time jobs to make some money and travel another country and keep repeating till they're done. It seems nice to have a life like that. I had a dream to travel in my caravan with camera in my hand and yes, a journal to keep those memories alive. 

I love the idea when young people fill up their times with go travel and go for adventure rather than waste their money at shopping mall buying CD's collection of Korean singer or spend their money duplicating their idol from top to toe or busy pleasing their partner with this or that stuff. Why don't they go for a trip and get new experiences? Learn some and dig more.

I will travel the world. I will. Night people and dream about great places. :)

Reading. One of my favourite since I was kid. My mom helps me a lot in explaining this and that. Helps me to read, to learn new words. And my dad, of course did help me. He buys all the book. I mean, money comes from him, is it? ;)

I love a book with thriller genre, motivation, science-fiction, biography or maybe based-on-true-story.  I rarely read lovey-dovey novels because it just fantasy. After all, where it will lead us to? Fake happiness? Sorry, it such a waste journey. Some people treat books as their escape from reality, from problems. Be a character. Be in author's mind who will lead us to the end of journey. 

'Books are the plane, and the train, and the road. They are the destination and the journey. They are home.' - Anne Quindlen

Back then when I was working at Parkson, every month I will spend some money for Indie books. I love their writing. I don't spend much for English novels because they're so expensive. I once buy lots of English novel with my books voucher. Totally worth it. Sometimes I just read it online. But now, Android got apps for book-readers out there. Amazing isn't it?! I just pick what books I want and read them everywhere. But of course the most important thing, I have find network connection first before my happiness grows.

These are my collection but it just half of it. I haven't finish reading them yet so I brought to Segamat. I love to read the author's blog too. You see the book with 'Awek Chuck Taylor' tittle on it? I know the author. The one with schizophrenia illness. He is such a great guy. His brain full with history and fact. He remember every story, date, places and names so well. I loves to read his tweets and blogs because I can learn so much. His books of course have lot of facts and facts and facts. He such a great inspiration. I also follow Twitter twt_buku. Always come up with an amazing curator every week and suggestion for great book. For a book lover, it is a must to have them in your following list.

Till then, enjoy your reading and have a nice day. 

Watch Over My Town, Will You?

Watch Over My Town, Will You?

Tuesday 22 October 2013

Assalamualaikum people.

I plan something today but it did not work the way I want it. I got stressed over this thing. If this happen I just open up my lappy and find an important file in my laptop. GAMES.

When I was younger, I got addicted to this thing. I guess I got my dad's gene. In his free time, he play games. He loves to play Tumblebugs. The one we have to shoot same colour of bug to release them from evil bug. Yeah, that one. I always beat his score. It just two of us will conquer the highscore list. If this week he got to be on top, next week I'll beat him with higher score. And it goes on and on till I got my own games.

I love to play time-management, racing and adventure games because it's quite fun and I love the speed. I once played fighting games but I stopped because my finger become swallow pressing the keyboard so hard just to win the battle. It much better if I had Play Station so my finger don't have to suffer much. When I want to relax or chill a little bit, or in my term, to train my brain I'll choose word-searching games, scrabble or build word games. Quite fun tho!

Click here to play ;)

When I was a newbie at Facebook, I didn't know what to do with my page then someone invite me to play games. I play all of them then I got bored and remove them from my page but just one game I didn't treat it same like the others. I play Cityville because I can be a mayor. Who don't want to be a mayor. You can rule your own town. Do whatever you want and buy anything and decorate it as you imagine all this while.

My dad once said

Why don't you become a game designer since you love to play them so much? At least you have a job based on what you love to do. It'll turn out great.

I got so excited when i heard those lines but when I grew up and I think I'll just keep my hobby as hobby. I figure out another job that suits me well. It's kind of hard to be a designer because I'm not born with a great left brain. I just want to be a user in my life not a creator. But I'm just glad because my dad don't think my interest as a wasteful activity like my mom did. After all, we share the same interest. For sure he know what it feels like.

Till then, take care and have a nice stress-free day :)
