1 Malaysia Book Voucher

Yo, I had just spent my 1 Malaysia Book Voucher on Wednesday. The vouchers were distributed to every tertiary studies' students. In my opinion, this is one of the tricks used before election in order to attract more supports, particularly from the young generation. I'm not fallen into that!


Wednesday was Wilayah Day, thus it was a holiday in Kuala Lumpur. My cousin didn't work on that day but he needed to have a glance at the fair of his company in IOI Mall. He invited me to go along and reminded me that there was a Popular bookstore. 


We went there around 12p.m.. We wandered around the bookstore and I was searching for the books that I wanted. I found it, it was the late Steve Job's biography. It cost me RM99.90. There were other editions and Chinese versions which were cheaper but I was so adamant to buy the original version since I wanted to support intellectual property. Besides, according to Johnvyn (Ping), Walter Isaacson was the only one authorised by late Steve to write his biography. I respected the late Steve. As what I had mentioned in the post 'Farewell Test', there is one copy of it in TARc's library (KL Main Campus) but I don't think I have enough time to finish it before I graduate. 


I spent all the book vouchers but the book vouchers were not enough! I bought three books, they cost me RM219.50 with another two books which cost RM59.80 each. The two books were recommended by Jared when we were going to Popular book fair in Penang. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the book which Jared recommended me the most. I thought, it should be a hot stuff, otherwise I should be able to find it. It was a tiny book which cost RM60++. 


For your information, anyone spending RM150 with the book vouchers are eligible to make a student card with Popular free of charge. I wondered whether I was eligible as the terms and conditions stated that the student card was meant for students age from 7 to 18. Hopefully my sister can get it in 6 weeks time. 


There are still plenty of books I want to buy but I am insufficient of the book vouchers. Ergo, I hereby announce that I'm willing to offer RM150 for the RM200 book vouchers. If anyone's interested please contact me. As you may already know, I started to have the reading habit after being influenced and impressed by Jared and Johnvyn. I do hope that those who get the book vouchers appreciate them.

龙年 2012

好快哦，我昨天就回到吉隆坡了。很没趣，几乎是没有休息到。这时，我才想起我还有一大堆的assignments还没有做。再给我几天时间充电吧，然后我们才把它们打个落花流水！

今年，我的两个阿姐都叫我去她们家拜年。我几时又多了一个阿姐？哈哈，秘密啦。一个是L.M.Y.，另一个则是T.D.M.。很少人知道这回事。很可惜，我的亲戚从外坡来，因此抽不出时间跟她们叙旧。下次吧，总有机会的。

今年，我的表姐带她的家公、家婆全家来。很热闹！我得当导游，偏偏我又不大熟悉路，毕竟这些日子，在吉隆坡的时间比在槟城还要长，不过我尚算称职啦。我们去了很多地方，也再度去了Pantai Kerachut。很爽，大家坐船回时都很尽兴。

可是，最有意思的还是年初三我去大山脚--忠英园那里找我的妈妈。一如既往的，她看到我们来很开心，我的红包还是最大包的。她得到热心人士的捐款之后，有去洗肾，人看起来精神多了，讲话也比较有中气。不过，她距离最后一次洗肾已经是一个多月，因此她讲话久了会喘。

她的儿子则不顾她，去他的女朋友家过夜。妈妈还告诉我们，有些善款则被她的儿子拿去。她大概只收到一半的钱。我阿嫲就说当作是他的工钱吧，毕竟这些善款还是他利用我妈妈的名义去筹来的。

其实我很讨厌他，很想揍他。我很想快点赚大钱，然后接妈妈去槟城跟我一起住。然后请私家看护照料她，按时带她去医院复诊、洗肾。可惜，我还没到那个程度。不知我会否飞横腾达呢？如果有那么一天，妈妈是否还在呢？

昨天，我就乘坐我表姐家的Proton Exora七人房车回吉隆坡。这次没有塞车，因此我们只花了四个钟头就到了。我们先去吃KFC，然后我表姐的家公叫我拿回家我们还吃不完的burger和喝不完的Pepsi。因此，我又剩一餐的钱咯。其实，我很感激、感恩，但是我又很不好意思。

祝大家龙年行大运！
