Belated Birthday Note

Sometimes life offers you so many stories to write, so many chances to get, so many wounds to be healed, and so many people to be loved.

And at this point, after the 19th trip of me surviving around the sun, I know that the best way to live this damn life is to laugh.

Laugh at those heartbreaks, laugh at the stupidity, laugh at those silly things I've ever done, laugh at those twisted games that got me black and blue, laugh at this goddamn universe...

And also, be grateful.

Be grateful because God still let me have so many people to laugh with...

Have many people to cry with...

Have many people to argue with...

And have many people to share life, love, happiness, fear, and the excitement of this bitchy life.

I never know how or when this journey will end.

Yet somehow I believe that I still have a long, winding road to walk.

Ini buku lama banget dan boleh dapet dari bazaar buku Gramedia LOL.

But hey, Sophie Kinsella is a great writer though. I knew her from "Confessions of Shopaholic" (I read and watched the movie). Honestly I'm just not that into Kinsella's or Meg Cabot's, and I'm just more into Linda Howard's or Sandra Brown's, but this book is just so amazing (and makes me think that I should read more chicklits).

Poppy Wyatt was engaged with a perfect man, Magnus Travish. Magnus proposed to marry her and gave her a beautiful ring. But due to some champagnes she got drunk, and the ring was lost. So Poppy looked for it like crazy because she was going to meet Magnus's parents. Her phone was lost too, and surprisingly on a trash, she found a phone! She took and used it. But Sam Roxton, the owner of the phone, wanted his phone back. So after those witty negotiations, they shared the phone.

I love this book because Kinsella is so smart of making funny dialogues, great narration, and twisted plot. This book told us that sometimes some things that we think are best for us, actually not. But universe will tell us in so many ways, and all we have to do is to find the signs. Someday we have to choose spontaneously, to get our own happiness (like Poppy, who has fallen in love right before her wedding). And this book teaches us how not to be afraid to take chance and be proud of ourselves.

And for Heaven's sake, I love Sam Roxton!!!! XD

Karena Sialnya

Karena sialnya, jika maju aku takut akan pilu, dan jika mundur pun terlalu merindu.

Bagaikan menjejak runtuh lalu melesak jatuh.

Enggan berharap tapi tak henti meratap.

Hanya diam tergugu, menatap tak jemu hingga hati membiru.

Tersenyum pahit di setiap bayangan, memaki sendu di setiap ingatan.
