!!!DO NOT BE FOOL BY THE PHOTOS!!!

Don't the food looks just AMAZING? They may look great here, but the taste is FAR from what you'd expect. Thanks to the deceiving lens of the Nokia N8 that manages to make highly unappetizing food looks heavenly.

The buffet was a TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT *boohoo* They hardly have any variety of sushi and sashimi as most of the stuff were cooked. Their fish were not fresh and their tactic is to stuff you full of cheap and tasteless carbs so you'll order less. I only like one of the tofu dishes, but got sick of it rather quickly as we had a lot of other tofu dishes with the same type of tofu but a different sauce =_= The best was probably the ice cream with cornflakes XD We go to a Japanese buffet and asked repeatedly for cornflakes *LOL*

CONCLUSION: The place SUCKS! DON'T GO THERE! And don't be fool by the nice looking pictures from other blogs, as that was what happened to us.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

The Zahir

I always become like this when I read these kind of damned books. Maybe it's an attempt to feel like I understand literature that I actually don't understand at all. Or just an excuse to feel like I am actually a hopeless romantic in disguise with deeply buried emotions. Either way, this will only be temporary. I know I will just forget about all these in the next few days *rolls-eyes* Therefore, please don't take what I write next seriously unless you've read the book and feel the same way, which would mean that I really am not crazy =_=

After turning the last page, I feel that I do not deserve a piece of that bloodstained cloth from the unidentified soldier. Even though I had experienced that sense of loss for a while, it did not last. I don't feel the energy coursing through my veins, though I longed for it. It must feel wonderful. I still do not understand. However, I know that in order to understand I need to find myself. I need to first know what I really want, and what really makes me happy.

So my quest now is to journey through life in search of the answer to this fundamental question:
"What makes me happy?"

Are you truly happy?

Obsession

Started reading The Zahir the day before, just because I felt like reading something, and it seemed like a good read at that time. I've started the book before, but never finished it for whatever reason I have forgotten. Usually it's because it's boring for I don't understand it, especially with books such as The Zahir. But today, about two-thirds through the book, I started to realize something, or rather I felt something. I know I usually get into a sort of state when I read, especially with these kind of books. But the feeling today was very peculiar, which is why I am writing about it now. It left me feeling like there's something empty inside me, things are emptying out. It's not a very pleasant feeling I must say, but it sort of gives me hope that maybe if things are emptying out that I can start to let things in, which I'm usually afraid of doing. It's a very weird feeling I must say. Maybe Paulo Coelho's book are really as spiritual as they say, though I certainly did not remember feeling this way when I read The Alchemist. I have yet to finish The Zahir, I don't know how I will feel when I turn over the last page. But as of now, it really is having an effect on me. The hole in the heart feeling is so great that I even have to put a pillow over my chest in order for me to continue reading, though it doesn't really help much as the feeling still remains. I thought by writing about it that it may go away, but I can still feel it right now. It's a very weird feeling indeed. I really hope I can understand the true meaning of The Zahir by the end of the book. Till then, I'll just have to wait for the epiphany or whatever and continue reading.

p.s. I'm not crazy.

Stars

Star light, star bright,

The first star I see tonight;

I wish I may, I wish I might,

Have the wish I wish tonight.

I'm not exactly sure how the Big Bang Theory works.

But if it meant that we're all made of stardust, then it's a pretty darn cool theory XD
