Days are getting colder in my house, mostly because of the pouring rain as the monsoon season is already here (monsoon cup/monsoon season. Geddit?). I rarely go out of the house nowadays, except for when my mum needs to buy grocery, or when we both malas nak masak and we decided to scour for food around the kampung.
This week I found out about my practicum result. It is not official, though, and I am still hoping for a miracle (which I doubt will happen). The result is not that thrilling, as I was hoping I could get a good result.
I am not happy.
I wonder what happened to the word “fair” and “professional”.
Most importantly, I wonder whether all my sacrifices are wasted. Those horror period at that jin bertendang place! Urgh…
Nevermind that. As I would always say to myself, those people who misjudge me will, sooner or later, realize their mistake and the most powerful revenge is to prove that I am more worthy that what they seem to think of me.
Yesterday I went to the state library to return the books that I have borrowed and to borrow some new ones. I went there actually to find autobiographies written by Obama, “Dreams from my father” and the other one written by John McCain. Johan Jaffar wrote a review on both the autobiographies. I have always loved what Johan Jaffar wrote; therefore I decided to give them a go. I searched around and I didn’t find the book. The makcik at the counter told me that the book was at a section called “Lincoln Corner”.
Interestingly, I found out that the library has a special section, hidden at the back of some lame magazine racks, far at the end corner of the second floor, a haven for me which is called “Lincoln Corner”. I was astounded, amazed and bewildered at the sight of an abundant of autobiographies and other novels written by Americans. Now, don’t go crazy and judge me as an American lover, but it seems that at this section, books written by Americans are placed separately from other books. I wonder why.
I love to read books but I have never actually wandered farther than the fiction section in the state library. So now I guess I have a new place to explore. Apart from “Dreams of My Father” by Barack Obama, I also borrowed other books.

I guess that’s all for today. Phantom wrote that “The different would be Democrats would normally don't start a war. And that's about all we can hope from Obama”, which I intend to exploreby reading his book. People are speculating a lot about Obama and whether he can bring changes. Truth is nothing much will happen unless Obama wants to stay longer in his seat. Fact is, he’s not even in his much-awaited office yet! I wonder what Bush is doing right now, probably stuffing his aped-face with thousand pages of mistreated documents of his years in the White House.
As usual, people, have fun. If you’re staying with your mum, tonight, take some time to look at your mum’s face and think of her sacrifice for you. Then I bet you wouldn’t have problem at all in listening to her. Adieu.
