  • I’m back!

    Yes, I finally am!

    After spending 39 days in the service, a brief time in Bandung, and one week in Lampung, I’m finally back to blogging again. There’s so much I want to share that I can’t even remember each one of it. So sorry that I can’t tell you the full story here, but hey at least I’m back again! Haha

    That was the picture of my sister that I took on the boat when we went back home from Lampung last week. Let’s take a brief moment to talk about how I envy her short hair. I used to have that same haircut, but now I have to keep it long since I’m wearing hijab and it would be a little bit troublesome if my hair was short. So sad 🙁

    And that was a new book I bought last Saturday. The title is The Geography of Bliss. I’m trying to read at least one book a month. It’s on my bucket list (which will be shared soon in this blog).

    The new semester will start this coming Monday and I’m so excited about it. Let’s hope that I don’t mess anything up now that it should be my final year in college. (If I messed up, I would have to take an additional semester next year, making this year not my final year. Dear God, no.)

    I love you!!!

  • yet another post about the hunger games

    Please don’t be tired of me talking about The Hunger Games series just yet. Because I wasn’t kidding when I said that I was going to finish reading the whole series as soon as possible. Today I bought Catching Fire and I’m currently on page 83. Let’s hope that college will not push me too hard this week because I really want to finish this book in less than a week. Fingers crossed!

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.

    PS. Also, cross your fingers for my microteaching test tomorrow!

    I found this picture while searching ‘hunger games’ on Pinterest and I couldn’t help but think that this picture is so real to me! Haha… As you might have known, I bought the book after watching the movie first. And I have to say that this is actually a bad idea. Not only did I already know the story, I also imagined Josh Hutcherson everytime I read about Peeta. It really killed the excitement. I remember being so amazed at how accurately they casted Harry Potter actors and actresses. So, I guess I have to finish the whole series before Catching Fire comes out. It’s gonna be quite easy since the movie will not be released until late 2013.

    Well, I have nothing more to say here besides: I LOVE THE HUNGER GAMES! (And Josh Hutcherson as Peeta Mellark :D)

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.
