if there is one thing that can make me as happy as writing or baking, it would be curling up in bed with a cup of hot cocoa (or green tea, haha) and a good book.
yes, i love to read, more than a lot of other things under the sun. i used to be able to spare a lot of time for reading back when i was in school but these days it seems so hard to even spend an hour on it.
too bad eh? i really can't wait for the exam commotion (haha, commotion pls) to be over so that i can relive those happy ulat buku days.
i've compiled a list of books that i planned to read, hopefully i will be able to cross off most of them by the end of the year :)
the booklist;
- breakfast at tiffany's - truman capote
- the wind in the willows - kenneth grahame
- the bell jar - sylvia plath
- to kill a mockingbird - harper lee
- olivia - dorothy strachey
- the adventures of huckleberry finn - mark twain
- jane eyre - charlotte bronte
- nights in rodanthe - nicholas sparks
- the lucky one - nicholas sparks
- the time traveler's wife - audrey niffenegger
- handbags and gladrags - sally worboyes
- the folklore of discworld - terry pratchett & jacqueline simpson
- making money - terry pratchet
- the complete work of jane austen - this, i can't wait! i saw the edition in kinokuniya a few weeks back and i am going to make sure that yours truly will own a copy sooon :)
i am also planning to enter the mph search for malaysian writers, saw this banner at dira's blog. (okay i'll link that later haha, buta it, sorry) and i already have the storyline in my head.
hopefully, by doing that, i will get to retrieve a piece of my old self :)
can't wait to start writing!
