Lunar new year
been back to visit bp on new yr's eve.
uncle tan n tom chan were saying how much i've changed...
my hair has grown longer; it used to be 'sooooo short'.
did it?
can't really remember.
but it certainly was a lot shorter when i checked my neoprints from that time, esp when i was in sec 2. short baby-doll cut.
but its not only my appearance that has changed.
tho i dun feel any different from i used to two yrs ago, i know how far i've come n how much i've seen in this time.
bt n jc has changed my view of the world.
i no longer look thru life's experiences thru rosy-hued lenses.
life is alot bleaker n more profound than it seems.
gone are the care-free n happy-go-lucky days.
along wif age n maturity (altho i've always been mature for my age) comes much worries n responsibilities to shoulder.
n i'm not sure i prefer this.
have u read a good book lately?
i did.
its called 'i don't know how she did it', by allison pearson.
chance upon it by luck n decided to buy it after some hesitation.
n glad i did.
the story is about a career-minded working mother of two children, juggling a high-flying career (as in literally. she flies around the world there n back like twice a week sometimes) and home-making. oh, n an email lover too. its a comedy really. i absolutely love the uproariously funny narrative n candid language. but its also alot deeper n more reflective than that, showing the author's great insight into the people in society as well as life's many events n experiences.
the book is a comedy about failures; n a tragedy about success.
The story is told with incredible feeling, personal insight and great humor. The characters are exceptionally real and loveable, and the plot carries you along until the end. a trully enjoyable book.
so glad i bought this book.
this is pearson's debut novel, but am gonna buy her other books in future!
hmmm... sat paper tml.
gotta wake up bloody early in the morn to travel to orchard to take the stupid test for which i havent studied for yet. gawd.
gonna go kinokuniya to buy more books after that. *grinz*
