The Appeal

Last week I just finished reading a book by John Grisham "The Appeal". Usually I can finish his book in 1 night but nowadays, it took longer because I'm too tired to consentrate on my reading. I am the die hard fan of his works and I have read every single book written by him except the latest one which is still expensive and 'm waiting for the paperback version which are more cheaper.I remember that I was introduced to this book by a lecturer who said, "if you didnt like to read your case law (which it is obvious), why don't you all try to read John Grisham's book. at least you can improve your English and introduce to legal terms that widely used.". so when I came back to the College, apparently my roommate is a die hard fan of his books. I borrow a book and the rest is history.
Apa yang menarik bagi saya dalam buku ni dan penulisnya ialah bagaimana beliau menyusun jalan ceritanya dari permulaan , klimaks dan pengakhiran adalah sesuatu yang saya tak jangka...misalnya, kita selalu mengharapkan sesuatu cerita fiksyen berakhir dengan kesudahan yang mengembirakan tetapi buku-buku beliau mempunyai kesudahan yang realiti. kesudahan yang realiti bermaksud setiap kehidupan ada pengakhiran yang baik, dan ada yang kurang baik....
Take for example in this book, it touch on the appeal process in US and how the appeal court i.e supreme court appoint their judges. Over the US, the people selected their judges which are quite different from our country.... Judges not also perform their duties in judiciary but when election come, they are politician....
Oleh itu, saya cadangkan baca buku ni untuk menyelami sendiri bagaimana pelobi-pelobi sanggup menghabis berjuta-juta dollar bagi memastikan calon mereka terpilih sebagai salah seorang hakim...
Have a nice monday holiday for Perakian...

Teman

Nampaknya hari ini saya terima beberapa panggilan daripada teman2 yg dah lama tak jumpa dan dah lama tak dihubungi.

this is what happen when you're too busy or just don't care to contact them at all. I think I fall in both categories...

seorang teman menelefon kerana kenapa saya tak mohon jawatan di pusat pengajian tinggi yang beliau sedang mengajar. yang saya boleh katakan terima kasih kerana mengingati saya dan saya ada memohon dan selepas temuduga tiada sebarang jawapan.

the second friend, I call to ask a favour but apparently she has move to another state and no longer working in KL and I regret that I didn't return her phone call last week. it transpire that she has move to that state about a week...


Teman seorang lagi menelefon mengadu beberapa masalah peribadi. rasa kesal memang bersarang di hati sebab tak pernah menelefon sejak dia berpindah ke KL.

Cakap pasal teman ni, saya ada beberapa teman (sebenarnya adik-adik) yang banyak membantu dan menceriakan saya..menceriakan saya apabila pagi-pagi kena bambu dengan Puan Majistret... menghilangkan rasa bosan dengan makan angin ke Lenggong dan Kuala Kangsar serta Ke Teluk Batik. menikmati brunch bersama-sama setiap hari serta mendengar celoteh-celoteh mengenai perkahwinan dan anaknya yang comel tu...

1 of them will be leaving us soon to start her family in KL (Hope you will have good life there sis!). Long time ago, I never realise that we will become close friend. So it will be us (to whom that may be concerned knew).. Luckily you all still here...

Hari ni brunch yang best walaupun terdapat sedikit kekeliruan semasa memesan makanan...hehe (dan beberapa kekeliruan lain yang tak boleh dielakkan. Betul tak?)...betul la dik...Ayam tu memang manis, semanis orang yang memesannya...hehe...

Just to quote what a friend said, it doesn't matter what you wear or how you look but how you feel. For me as long as I feel good, I am beautiful....

Pesanan saya ingat pesan ayah saya jangan kecik-kecik aje bijak tapi dah besar jadi cicak...

Pertama, bukan yg terakhir...

sebenarnya telah beberapa kali cuba membangunkan blog sendiri dari tahun lepas, tapi tak kesampaian atas sebab-sebab yg tak dapat dielakkan.

therefore, as the first entry and hopefully not the last (as the title said), I wish that fellow friends/bloggers would give comment.

Harap-harapnya komen yg membina bukan menghancurkan.

Speaking (dont't take it literally) of destructive, I've come accross these few days a number of jokes and spontaneous opinion given by people that unintentionally hurt other people feeling without realising it and also might hurt several relationship.

Betul kata orang tua-tua, kerana pulut santan binasa, kerana mulut badan binasa...

Honestly, this only my point of view without taking any consideration of any other opinion.hehe

Macam ayah saya cakap kecik-kecik bijak, bila dah besar jadi cicak ;)
