Taman Negara, Kuala Tahan

assalamualaikum.

sungai pahang di belakang rumah~

wiken yg lalu aku ke Kuala Tahan. me n azu g melawat famili angkat. family angkat kitorang ni cuma terdiri dr sorang mak, ayah n kakak sahaja. program family foster ni, buat masa 2006 dulu, ni la baru nk dtg balik after 2 yrs. kitorang gerak dari KL kul 3.30 ptg, sampai kul 7.45 mlm, naik bas Kuala Tahan express. itu merupakan bas xpress 1st yg sampai kuala tahan.

b4 ni kalu nk msuk tmn negara, either u naik bas persiaran, or u naik bas tempatan dari jerantut. so, we was kind of takut, excited, and all sorts of feeling campur skali.

mana taknya, lepas je felda padang piol tu, passenger bus tinggal 4 org je. me n azu, sorang akak, n sorang teenage boy. akak tu turun b4 sampai kat kg. kuala tahan, kat felda tembeling tengah. nak dijadikan cerita, sabtu petang nxt day, ada cucu sedara mak angkat kitorang dtg.

one of them is sorang akak ni, sekali tu, akak tu kata, 'eh, ni yg naik bas semalam kan?'

rupanya akak tu la yg turun kt felda smlm..sekali sedara la pulek~ =p

pagi sabtu kitorang g Kelah Sanctuary. tgk2 ikan kelah, besar2 ok! boleh mandi2 dgn ikan kelah tu. sambil tu, kita bagi2 makan kat ikan tu, tapi bila ikan2 tu ngap makanan tu kan, sangat ganaz sekali tau!! rasa cam bg mkn kat ikan piranha pulak.

can u spot the fish??

perjalanan pergi dan pulang selama lebih kurang stgh jam yang penuh dgn cabaran.. waaah~

balik dari mandi2 dgn ikan kelah, kitorang g menjala kat belakang rumah. belakang rumah mak ayah is sungai pahang. air sungai tengah surut skang, tu yang boleh mandi n menjala kat situ. err,, ayah sorang je yg menjala sebenarnya.. heheheh. kitorang lak mandi2, rendam2 je, sbb berenang xpandai~~musim buah tak habis lagi, so merasa la kitorang buah durian, rambutan depan rumah n manggis blakang rumah. seDap!! malam ahad tu (sabtu malam) kitorang dinner kat rainforest resort,tmpat akak angkat kitorang tu keje.

im intersted dgn payung 'mayat' kat atas tu je~ hehehe

here's our family's picture..ewah~~

2nd July 2008 - not without my sisters

assalamualaikum.

finally, i finished reading this book.
i bought it on February, but start reading it until recently.
as i said before, im not good in reviewing.
so here i am, writing the summary of the book which u can get it at the back of the book itself.

NOT WITHOUT MY SISTERS
by Kristina, Celeste and Juliana

Kristina, Celeste and Juliana (the authors) were all born into a cult - The Children of God to the same father, Christopher Jones, who remains a member of the organisation. Kristina and Celeste share the same mother. The three girls were separated from each other and their mother at an early age and have lived in various missions throughout the world, often under 'care' of foster parents. Only recently have the three sisters been reunited.

But their experiences were a world away from the traditional Christian understanding of 'love' and 'forgiveness'. The organisation that was entrusted with their care practised physical and mental torture, thought control, pornography, prostitution and horrific acts of sexual abuse.

They were denied access to formal schooling, forced to wander the streets begging for money, and were mercilessly beaten for 'crimes' as unpredictable as reading an encyclopedia. Here, all three sisters, who suffered the worst forms of abuse, and were torn apart from each other, have finally been reunited. In this book, they relive their experiences of how they survived-and then escaped-a cult that has claimed the lives and innocence of thousands of its members.

1st July 2008

hello there!
i went to watch movie on th 1st July.

to me, cerita ni tak mengecewakan la..
cuma aku geram je tgk rambut Baizura Kahar dalam ni..
tak seswai...tapi nk wat cane, bukan aku pengarah pun.. =)
actually, im not the type of person yg tgk muvie citer melayu kat wayang.
biasanya aku akan tunggu je crita2 tu keluar kat tv time hari raya. hehehe.
tapi cerita sepi ni buat aku xsabar nk tunggu time raya..tu yg tgk jugak kelmarin..haha
dan oh! nasib baik ia tidak menghampakanku.

lepas zohor, p maen bowling kejap.
mgkn nasib menyebelahi aku kali ni, sbb aku xdapat nombor last.
tapi dapat nombor second last.hmm, ada peningkatan tuh..
pukul 4.10 sambung tgk wanted.
geram sejak semua org mberi review yg menarik ttg muvee ni.
so, mestilah nk tgk jugak kan??
angelina jolie ni sangatlah sexy dalam ni..haih..
citer ni pun best jugak cuma time keluar je wayang pas citer ni,
aku rasa cam badan aku dah penat n sakit2 setelah berejam struggle berlari2 dan tumbuk menumbuk kat dalam wayang. heartbeat aku pun cam ala2 laju je...muahahahahahha

Are You My Mother?

ok, buku yang bawah ni was the version yang aku baca. i bought this book january lepas, RM 19.90 kat Harvest, Sogo.

korang, aku sebenarnya sangat DYING nak bercerita kat korang about all the books yang aku baca. but honestly, aku sangat tak pandai nak mengarang ayat, kalo suh aku bercakap je, it's much easier.
so, sini aku tulis sinopsis kat blakang buku tu je la, okay?
n i will add the ending of the story skalik...

From the age of 19, Emma Victor has had to bring up her much younger sister Stella*9 years old.
it has shaped both their lives.

Stella is nearly grown-up now, and needs Emma differently. Emma's nurturing instincts extend to her work as an aromatherapist, and are a part too of her relationship with the unreliable but irresistible Gavin. But something is missing. Emma has to confront her deepest need - a need she's been denying for years - and embark on the search for her birth mother.
*yes, Emma ni sbenanye anak angkat sahaja. dia n Stella tu kire adik bradik tiri la..

Are You My Mother? takes it's title from a children's book that Emma used to read to Stella, about a baby bird who, finding his mother gone, feels the panic of abandonment. Profoundly moving and emotionally honest, the novel chronicles Emma's search for her birth mother and her own place in the world, while exploring fundamental questions about the nature of mothering, and the ties that bind us.

anyone who's ever felt unsure of they belong will identify with Emma's plight, and her funny, sad journey towards the discovery of her sense of self.

that's the sinopsis of the story, and finally, Emma did not found her mother *her name is Ann* at all, sebab mak dia sebenarnya dah meninggal at the same years mak ayah angkat dia meninggal.
BUT, she did find her father. and her father, is actually her uncle *adik ayah angkat dia. does she has 2 uncles or she has 2 dads?? hehe
and she did felt very comfort at seeing his dad@uncle because he looks exactly like her ayah angkat yang dah meninggal tu, which she missed so much. Ann n ayah betul dia bagi Emma kat orang lain was actually sebab they were so young at that time, they could not afford to have a baby.
they give it to mak ayah Stella sbb mak ayah Stella takde anak.
after 10 years, setelah adopt Emma baru dapat Stella.
tapi, since Emma di adopt oleh mak ayah Stella, Ann ni sangat rindukan Emma sampai dia kene terima rawatan kat hosp. mental.
so, finally Emma felt ease sebab she wasn't unwanted baby actually, it's just the situation that doesn't give chance.

Mao's Last Dancer

okay friends, this entry aku nak citer pasal a book that i've read january hari tu. this is a true story about Li Cunxin. honestly, memule aku sungguh x paham, why tajuk dia :: Mao's Last Dancer
eventually baru i understand, cerita ni mengambil setting d China, back when they've been ruled by the communist. and pemerintah masa tu was Mao Zedong. Li Cunxin ni pulak was chosen to study ballet. so, this is the story how he battles his life to fulfill his dream. it's a journey about determination, passion and integrity.
