Of Ramadan, Books and Lasagne

Okay, my fingers were itching for the keyboard, although I've accidentally cut one of it when I was cutting the carrots for the lasagne. Well, I can't call myself a cook compared to my chef of a sister.

we made two, one round one and one square one. This is the end product:

It was her idea to make the lasagne, but we all chiped in to get it done. This was before it was cooked. Cheese wonderland:

Yesterday, I went to MPH to spend my 300-worth vouchers. It turned out that my enthusiasm just died because not many of the titles actually made my mouth water, so I let my sis do her choosing. She chose a Stephen King 'Just After Sunset' and Jodi Picoult's 'Handle With Care.' Stephen King's was mildly crude in language, whereas Jodi Picoult's was a tad bit, well, I can't find the adjective for it, but all the same brilliant.

Seriously, I knew what was coming, it was the same 'My Sister's Keeper' formula with the medical lawsuit and family crisis, but I can't bring myself steady to face such compelling story-telling, and it left me feeling blown-away? Now that's exaggerating, but it was. I spent the whole day today just reading that book, and now have a headache for lying in bed all day.

On the night of first Ramadan, we went to Sushi King:

this is the total of dishes of sushi that both my Papa and I ate:

this was all taken with my new Lumix =)

My Fair Lady

This is an old issue, I know. What has brought my attention to the topic of women rights was when I watched one of the episodes of Commander In Chief on Hallmark. In that series, the president of the United States was supposedly a woman. Interesting, and she plans to take the stand for women rights to the next level despite the controversies arousing her brave statement. The debate was whether or not it was relevant to debate on an old issue, in respect of the state of today's society. Women of today have a better status than they did way back in the days of history old. Women emancipation has been heatedly debated especially in the West throughout the time, and perhaps, the most memorable one was of the Suffragettes, fighting for the right of women to vote. Some places in Africa, in history, do not even recognize rape of women, as a crime, however, all of that has changed, thankfully. The question now is, are women actually 'emancipated' as we are all made to belief? well,...

Wish List

There's a lot of things on my wish list, actually, but here are some items on that list. I can foretell that at the least, I might be able to get them after SPM. The Boys Who Saved The World by Sam Mills, it had a good review, I might as well check it out. I bet it serves up a lot of analogies of political- religious issues, the zeitgeist of the so-called modern and sophisticated era that we live in today. Kak Ainul made a good review on it. The synopsis itself is very intriguing indeed. Surely must read more. The synopsis sounds juicy, as it provides a twist to the conventional Wizard of Oz story. My sinister inner child-cum-imp is hell bent on getting her hands on this one. And yeah, pray that I do well for my trials and the real SPM. 12 A1s, including that Cambridge English assessment. Oh, just so you know, I'm not doing any more tags in the future, mind you.
