Just no too long ago, i logged into Messenger, and i saw my ex-boss quoting that she says she is writing a book. Was about to ask but thought better of it, cause i remember i dun like people to disturb me when i am writing. So, i left it at that.
Then, i when to MPH and i saw rows and rows of book (inviting isnt it!) and there's a section about ppl's autobiography. I looove reading interesting biography's. Although, Thira thinks its a waste of time reading about someone else's life, i beg to differ. The only problem is, i realise most of the bio were written by someone else, like David Beckham, Diana (the DIANA), some geisha, and some one else....
The point is, its sad and confusing, sad cause someone else makes a profit out of your life after your death, confusing because ppl dunno wat is true and what is not. So, i am going to announce that if there were a biography about me after my death, that is not written by moi, dun buy! I dun wan someone else telling my story, twisting everything, adding salt, vinegar and sugar along the way and then making a whole lotta money for themselves. Doesnt matter if they say they are my friend or not, my friends would not make profit out of my death...
Here's how i will start my book...
Dear reader,
If you took this book out of the shelf of a bookstore, it means i am someone famous/respected or someone that die tragically (although i would prefer the first option!), or else i could not think of any other reason why anyone would be bothered to print let alone buy my book. However, if you were to take this book out of a dusty pile of stuff, it might mean that you might be one of my descendence(if i have any!, or you might just be someone close.
By the time you are reading this, i might as well be dead, or else you would not be reading this book, let alone lay your hands on it. The reason i write this book is not for profit (cause i am dead, you see.)It is to keep nosy ppl out of my business and to stop them from putting words into my mouth i also dun want anyone else telling my life's story. Cause i think the only person who knows my life best, is none other than the person who lives it, which unfortunately is me... So, if you are buying or reading this book because you want to know about certain aspect of my life, feel free to do so (cause i am already dead, i can't do nothing about it now.) But, if what you are looking for is not found here, there could only be these few scenario, it's not true, i have never heard of it, i dun want to talk about it or it's so insinificant i dun even want to bothered to include it in this book.
So there, have a nice read.
Warmest reagrds,
-Win-

The boy who live...
I never thought i will get the book so soon, i mean i thought like; this is the final book, everyone would be rushing to get this book, so there'll be traffic jams and the book would probably be sold out...But wait! It's 11 something in the morning, my dad walks slumberly into Tesco expecting a huge crowd and lots of squashing, but the place looks almost empty, and then slumberly he took the book and pay, then leave wondering the same question that i asked him later. Why on earth would people que up 5 a.m outside the store to wait for the book when its so easy to get it??? I salute those who actually camp outside the stores though, seriously.
Well, i manage to finish the book in one day (after getting severly interrupted by my mum for a gazillion times), i consider it a great achievement and dissapointment. Sigh... I mean this is THE LAST book, the ending, the finale...and its ...dissapointing. Maybe its because, i got like 2 out of 3 guesses right, the R.A.B, and about Snape...I suppose there is only so many tricks one can pull after all this time, although I suppose J.K Rowling has gave a very 'soapy' ending for the book, and she left a number of loop holes here and there. I know she did mentioned that there will be no sequel, who knows though...
The other reason, dun you think 600 pages plus is a lil too short for a finale? I mean, there a lots of parts where it was so interesting and then it ended so abruptly, i was reading so keenly and when i get so hooked up it when like "huh, it ended already? So fast?" I wish she wrote add a lil bit more drama to the book though, it seems like the writer is trying to hurry us to the final part and say good bye...In other words, the story ended a lil too abrubtly and a lil too fast.
However, Rowling still did a pretty good job all and all, after all she DID wrote 7 books, and she did manage to get me hook up till the end of the chapter...Looking forward to her future books...
Here a spoiler though: I counted more than 2 person dead, and Harry is a cat (cause he excape death 9 times, correct me if i'm wrong). Well, that's about it, now for the final book for Eragon...
