car-booty!

Today we went to a carboot market in Trafford Park, about 5 minutes drive from our apartment. The mission is to find some toys for Daniel & Wii accessories for DH. I just went along to see if I could find any baskets… coz in reality I am big fan of all things basket. Weird.

PhD. Why I bother?

Excuse me as I proceed to meroyan for awhile. You don’t really have to read this.
Yup, the blogpost that I linked in my previous post is a dated entry, tahun 2007.. but mind you, this is not the first time I got such opinion. Somehow tonight, I feel the need to say something about this. [...]

hilang mood

I was just starting my study hour, and was checking my FB, when a friend of mine (an ex-schoolmate, also doing her PhD) posted THIS blog link to her profile.
Went on to read the blog, and.. Masya Allah… terus takde mood nak study. Terasa nak sakit hati sekejap. Geram pun ada.
Arrrrgghhhh!!! WTF? ???
Sabar..Faiza, sabar.

twilight saga fever?

Fever? No lah.
I wouldn’t say finishing up all 4 twilight novels within 10 days stipulates a fever, would you?
Hehe.
Here’s the thing, I was pretty sceptical about these novels in the beginning, and the fact that I only saw Twilight the movie a couple of months before the release of its sequel, New Moon can only [...]

smile

Smile though your heart is aching Smile even though it’s breaking When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by If you smile through your fear and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow You’ll see the sun come shining through for you Light up your face with gladness Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near That’s the time [...]

revamp

My blog needs a revamp… still fidgeting around it at the moment. Will do something about once I finished reading this book on Critical reading & writing… or else I will feel guilty for not doing anything academic-y for since Christmas.
Soon.

snowed in!

We woke up this morning and were thinking to go to Ikea to get some new bed linens. I got into the shower while DH put the kettle on the stove. He came in later to tell me the situation outside.

Everyone is snowed in, apparently. None of our neighbours has left for work, and most [...]
