I'm officially a Khaled Hosseini's fan!

Last Thursday noon, I went to Mid Valley with my colleages for our lunch break - retail therapy la konon! hehe. Anyway, JJ was sooooo packed... (Apparently there was Mid Valley JJ members day... so giler punya ramai la orang dalam tu!) that I decided not to shop there and just go to MPH to find this book that Zita had recommended - a book by Khaled Hosseini - "The Kite Runner". While I was in MPH... I bumped into this nice minah salleh who recommended me a few other nice books.... alamakk... I am really on budget lah.. so really can't buy all those nice books! *sigh!*. I ended up buying these 2 books...
Both books are by the same author - Khaled Hosseini!.
So last weekend, while the kids are were in Kumon Class (friday night) and in school (Saturday morning and evening to both sekolah kebangsaan and KAFA), I had the chance to have my own sweet time reading "A Thousand Splendid Suns". (Hubby took "The Kite Flyer" to Japan - wanted to read the book in the flight and train). The book is sooooo nice!!! A pager turner indeed!!! It's sad to read how cruel life could be to our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan... and make me soooo thankful of everything I have in my life!!
I can't wait to read "The Kite Flyer"..... kena tunggu hubby habis baca dulu....
BUT MOST IMPORTANT thing that need to be done right now is doing revision with the kids. They have monthly test in both sekolah kebangsaan and KAFA on the same days - kesian the kids.... sure stress nak study and doing tests pagi sampai petang.... *sigh!*
But did we do revision on Sunday?? Nooooooooooooo..... !! Hubby came back on Saturday night and wanted to go to "The Malaysia International Landscape & Garden Festival 2008" at Lake Garden, KL on Sunday morning. You know how BIG the lake garden is.... so kepenatan lah masing2 kan.... end up tak banyak revision pun boleh buat on Sunday.... *sigh!*. Adoi doiii.... tawakal je lah....
