Kid Story

When I was a Kid and Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Chibi Maruko Chan

which one first? i read diary of a wimpy kid and was surprised by the drawing in the book. ok so easy to read and funny too ~ cheese touch! went out with friends and went into a bookstore... i found full set of diary of a wimpy kid.. used my debit card and bought it. bring it home and it stays in the plastic bag for months..
took out the blue book recently and my 8 year old niece begging to read it but i gave her the red the first book i bought not worried for it to be handled in any way.. and told her to wait for the blue book because i'm not done reading it.. ok a month pass same excuse.. (got problem picking up undone things to continue doing the thing again)

then last year (like 30/12/12) .. waiting at the LCCT airport for our flight in the evening..again with friends.. i went for a walk and walk passed the shop with books out front and chocolates inside the shop.. my eyes was distracted with the simple but catchy title 'when i was a kid'... walk back and forth ..buying not buying... check my wallet..still have ringgits and a lot of rupiahs! dont want to change the rupiah yet.. went inside the shop  and found something even more interesting.. ok undecided again.. making rounds in the small space shop.. checking here and there.. check my wallet.. counting... enough and grab the chocolate with a special tin case and went to the cashier.. busy at the cashier.. few customer paying.. slip myself among them and grab the book from behind.. put back and choose another which look fine to me and went to the counter.. and paid. ok not that it is very expensive but i dont want to be questioned by my friend.. i could imagine how she will react if she see the price because i plan to read it on the plane.she might say "mahalnya!" for such a book. and so i took off the price sticker from the plastic that covers the book.
in the plane..we were like taking time to put our things into the overhead compartments.. ok we are not like those taller lovely ladies in red in the aircraft.. so sorry boy (a foreigner boy was already sitting) because our seats was on the middle and the one next to the window. the russian boy was in a very bad mood so like his mother on the other side...(i asked him when i got the chance.. do you speak english? yes. where are you from? Russia. (end of conversation) i think he got a new iphone5 and a new ipad.. my friend and i was like peeking what movie was he watching, because he put it on his lap but put the earphone on..so ..you know :p)
ok back to the book.. after talking about more than 30 minutes with my friend and i have nothing to talk about i took out the book and was about to unwrap the book, my friend ask. "berapa harganya?" "30 lebih" i straightly answered and at the same time unwrapping the plastic and in my head "knapala buka harga td.. jawab terus sja pun. apa jd dgn rancangan nda mau bagitau harga" but her reaction was ok so i think its ok laa.
i open the book and again.. i was surprise to see the contents.. in my head smiling" cam ni jak?"
my friend's reaction "macam ni pun bole buat buku?"
"a'ah kan??" and found that the writer is a Malaysian working in America.
but we read together a few pages and laughed a bit but truly i was in awestruck.. but i didnt finish 'reading' the book until today.. but i read the artist's online web page and more hilarious and funny sketches i read since my first day on my new job on monday 7/1/13.. i'm ok with that so that i can laugh and relax myself before work.. the office didnt filter that one out so i still can get the entertainment hahah..

chibi maruko chan head was connected to the thumb drive since somewhere ..i dont remember but i can say its more than 5years now.. it make it easy to find the thumb drive... since chibi is bigger than the thumb

ok clicking on the keyboard makes me happy la now :D i just got to 30 for a month but i am 31 now Islamic Calender.. alhamdulillah.. i think buying the books is to reminiscence how great it is to be a kid!
