Already 17 now ya'll! But still am small and petite. Despite that I've got a big heart and a huge ego. You'll love me as I spill my greatest ups and downs moments here. Have fun reading, potatoes :-)

Twilight Infatuation... Happens Again

I guess I'm staying home for the rest of the week. But not really. Probably until Thursday. And on weekends I'll be going out to the Mall with family, escaping my boredom of having nothing to do during holiday. Some girl friends I used to hang out with went overseas for like decades; they went to states, homestaying. So I don't really have any idea now with whom I am going to spend the holiday with. I just got home from my splendid 5 days vacation to Singapore, where I sometimes went for a walk with couple friends there and had fun. And now here I'm back home. Got nothing else to do unless someone asks me out to hang out somewhere.

But even though I'll be decomposed here at home, I'm digging my interest in reading novels, literature novels. Thanks to Singapore. I brought my Twilight novel along, in case I found myself gets bored with the trip. I've read Twilight once. I thought reading it for the second time to recap the story wouldn't be a sin. Especially that the movie adapted from the novel is coming out this December. Nowadays I'm not infatuated with this novel anymore, with Edward to be exact. But now I am infatuated again. Last Wed, the day I flew to Singapore, at the airport lounge, I was bored and had nothing to do except watching people coming in and out, getting the food from the buffet reserved. So I decided to take out the novel and read it to kill the time until it's the time to get on the plane. And man, I couldn't stop reading it. When I had to get on the plane, I stopped reading. You guessed it, I was damned in curiosity with what will happen next. I know I read it already, but I have lost the memory of Edward and Bella's challenging romance. So yeah, I actually forgot some of the events in the story.

I directly continued reading the novel as soon as I got on the plane. As well as when I had arrived at Orchard. When I finally had the time to relax after killing the day shopping and walking around Singapore, I spent the time reading Twilight. Seriously, I couldn't stop. Really. I am not exaggerating, this is for real. On the third day I stepped my foot on Singapore, I already finished the book. Dissatisfied, I felt like reading more of the story. I really wanted to gohome and read New Moon. I do know how sucks the book was, the fact that Edward actually left Bella; even though it's for Bella's sake. But it's plain boring and made me wanted to skip all the part where Bella is with Jacob. Yeah, the Jacob that Bella kissed on Twilight's third series! Ugh. 

Yesterday as I got home from Singapore, I tried to finish Hard Love ASAP. I read the novel on the remaining days in Singapore, just to spend times while I was bored, the replacement of Twilight. I was actually lucky to find this rare novel, the novel that my friends said was a good one. Well for me it wasn't. It's weird. It made me want to finish the book ASAP. So as soon as I finished the book, when I finally home, I opened New Moon and start reading it. I was tired the other night, jet-lagged. I didn't have enough sleep in the morning. I didn't sleep in the car either, when riding home from the airport. So today in the morning, soon as I woke up, I continued New Moon. And just finished it this evening. I am now reading Eclipse, still some pages. But I'm planning to finish it tomorrow since I'm not going anywhere. And then if my day is still monotony, I'll just read another novel that I bought from Singapore. Hell yeah, I am now into reading novels again. 

This is good, it practices my vocab and grammar. Just like what Terry says. Lol. I'm getting better in English though and I am happy. Not that I'm showing off, but I really do feel like I'm getting better. I'm still not a good speaker though, and not a good writer as my ELit mates are. I believe now I can dive deeper while reading novels. Since I now understand English novels better now than I did back then. I used to forget and didn't understand what the story is about. Now I have it all in my mind. I've changed. I've moved forward. And that's great.

Anyway I really can't wait for the fourth, and unfortunately the last sequel of Twilight, Breaking Dawn. I can't wait for August the second. Urr... or probably months later for it to be published in Jakarta. I'm also curious with Midnight Sun. I've read the first chapter at Stepheniemeyer.com and wanted to know what's going next. I hope Meyer's gonna publish it. And!!! Last but not least... Twilight the movie! I am so impatient for this. Robert Pattison is okay for Edward, I'm still disappointed though. But now I just realized how he fits perfectly for the movie... after seeing the teaser trailer from the official website. Bella's pretty, Kirsten Stewart fits the role. Oh well, can't wait for August and December!!!

Anyway this is a picture, like the only perfect picture taken, of me and my friends at Singapore. 
We were outside Takashimaya. The person who took the picture was so scary. Neither one of us had the guts then to ask him to take another picture. So yeaah... this is how the picture turned out. Not blurry, but... not perfect either. Oh well. At least we have one we could reminisce. 

Oh yeah, I also can't wait for my new environment to come. School I mean. If I do move... Yeah, can't wait
