4 hours to go..

so this is by far, the worst birthday i ever had in my life.. and i gotta say the calls, text messages from friends and family really made me sad.. i received too many calls and text messages that i didnt even bother to pick up or read. these people must think that its one of the happiest days in my life.. but they have no idea.. and i dont blame them...

so, 4 hours to go and counting. one thing for sure, being 27 makes me stronger than ever. i can still smile in tears and no one, no one could ever bring me down.. :)

have a great weekend.

For once..

I don't know what am feeling..

Sad, angry, dissapointed?

I feel like crying but am too mad to cry, you know what i mean? Sigh..

And I've been listening to Eric Clapton's - 'Change the World' for a hundred times.. It has a calming effect on me somewhat... but it doesnt heal the pain..

Its 3.40am... I cant sleep but if I dont, I wont look good in the new dress tomorrow.

Sigh.. life's a pain in the butt.. and am 27 today with no warm fuzzy hugs to go home to..

Anyone buying me this?? Plsss....!!



I want this for my birthday!! It's called 'Diorshow Powder', my preferred color is No. 003 Catwalk Pink. It's a loose powder that combines blusher and luminizer in one.

I spent a fortune last month - bought 3 Dior products (it comes with free make-up) and a dress.. a dress that burnt a hole in my pocket, which altogether cost me almost RM1500.. am not a shopaholic.. its just that sometimes its so hard to resist something that is sooo pretty. anyway, I can't afford to buy the blusher now, not in 2 months though its just RM130!

:( guess i have to wait till March..

I Did a Bad Thing


I really like the novel and here's the synopsis:


Sarah Roberts used to be good.


Then she did something bad. Very bad.


Now, seven years later, she’s trying to make up for her past by leading a respectable life, working as a local newspaper reporter and living with her saintly boyfriend Jonathan. She has no intention of ever doing a bad thing again.


Until Nick walks back into her life.


And suddenly, what’s good and bad aren’t so clear to Sarah any more.


I DID A BAD THING is dark, funny, wicked and true. Because haven’t we all got a guilty secret?

Guess what - I was looking for other novels written by the author.. but unfortunately, this is the first novel she wrote. and yeah being a 'skema' person i am, i wrote an email to Linda Green and asking about her up-coming novel and here's her reply:

Hi Nadia,

Thanks for getting in touch and I'm so glad you enjoyed my novel.

It's great to get feedback from readers - especially those as far away as Kuala Lumpar!

I'm half way through the next novel, similar mix of humour and darker stuff I hope. This time the heroine is a local TV news reporter and a single mum. It's provisionally titled The 'And Finally' Girl and should be published in hardback/export edition in November 08 and paperback April 09, if I get a move on, that is!

Thanks again.

Best Wishes,

Linda Green

BTW, i dun care she called me Nadia instead of Naida.. and spelled Kuala Lumpur wrongly! am just glad she replied ;) guess there's still a kid in me..
