Whiling the times..

The Serambi is my favourite place in the house. It is here that I spend most of my times in the morning and afternoon and at time till late evening. On one corner I now have an old radio playing old and traditional music and songs all the times, for I love to listen to music and song when whiling the time reading or just surfing the Net. Most of the time the Serambi is a  nice place to sit with just the fan to give the place a pleasant environment to while the time in the tropical weather. Kenet my cat is always around to accompany me, at time sitting on my lap and at time on the Kopitiam table nearby. It really nice. I do most of my reading here and enjoy virtualising 'travelling along' as narrated in the story. It takes me everywhere while been to nowhere. That folks is what reading is all about. Interesting eh!. I always sit on the IKEA'S chair that I bought years ago. It really comfortable. Whenever I am not there my cat Kenet would take over to sleep. At time even the Ally cats love to sleep on it. At this age I get great pleasure in reading and I read every genre. I do not sticking to reading one book a time but may read several books. Doing that devoid me of been bored but always finish reading a book anyway. I am now into reading history of the country as well any book written by the British officials who was here during the colonial period. These people had kept journal of the happening during during their tentures while in the government services. The one I am reading now, a title The real Malay is an informative and interesting book indeed.  An insight of the culture of the Malay at that time. Ada juga cerita pasal Orang Bunyian dan lain lain kepecayaan dalam budaya Melayu ...!

Have a nice day.

Syaz Rahim, thanks for the visit. My generation believed in the supernatural and orang halus is one of the many that help the Malay to move in life before the coming of western influence. It a good book, the writer have written from his own experiences. I have been reading since the age of 18 and now still reading at 81 ha ha. It is a priceless book to have in the library.

Have a nice day.
