I've only been reading Totto-chan: The Little Girl At The Window & Yasmin Ahmad's Films.
The 1st book was given to me by Mak Ngah as a birthday present on the night she returned from Japan! Ironically enough, going there was initially my 14/15th birthday present but, I guess a souvenir from my supposed 'birthday present' is better than nothing :)It's written by Tetsuko Kuroyanagi (Totto-chan herself!) & the best part is, it's a true story which of course, intrigued me all the more :D
The latter was given to me by one of my bestfriends as her mom somehow knows the author himself (refer to my post title) !I've had this book for quite a long while actually but haven't been in 'the mood' to read it. Good thing I brought it along in the midst of packing ;]
~hee Anyways, reading that book of Amir Muhammad's seemed to have taken me back to watching all of Okasan's films when she was still around. Something not many authors are able to do to me.
There were even a few facts about Okasan I never knew about (and she's family!) including the hidden yet, obvious 'symbols' in all her films.
Unbelievably, I started reading & finished it in just ONE day (yes, I know to some or most of you, I'm a pretty slow reader but hey, I tend to surprise myself unconsciously when it comes to things like these) .
Oh! A little message to Amir Muhammad - you made a tiny mistake in the Talentime section.
Melati is played by Amelia (whose last name I can't seem to remember) . It is Mawar that is played by Azean Irdawaty's daughter, Elza. Just letting you know if you ever read this :)
Well, I'm coming home tomorrow & I can't wait to go out again on Wednesday with my bestfriend & twin cousin! ♥
Ooh~! Amir accepted my friend request on Facebook! I shall have a little chat with him before I hit the hay. Cya~
shn finds people with very strange yet awkward demeanour interesting
.. but even if I fall in love again with someone new, it could never be the way i loved you..
