みなさん、こんにちは :) That is 'Hello everyone' the way Japanese says it. It's from Google Translate, by the way. Well, the reason I'm feeling so Japan-like today is because I bought a new novel. It's Japan-themed if you must ask. It's called 'Kira-Kira' which is pronounced as kee' ra kee'ra and it means glittering or shining. It's a Newberry Medal Winner written by Cynthia Kadohata.

Kira-Kira :) |
So, that's the book. Mine is a little different though, the front cover is totally different and mine has glitter sparkles all over 'em. HAHA, I admit, it looks kinda childish but the book is totally awesome! It's about a young Japanese girl who had to move to Georgia cause her father and mother weren't making enough money in Iowa. Her name is Katie by the way. Her sister, Lynn teaches her to see life in a total different view, as in everything in life is 'kira-kira'. So, from today onwards, everything in my life is 'kira-kira'. HAHA, that would be a lil weird coz in Malaysia, 'kira-kira' means count, like add and plus. LOL :) I've finished the book today, and guess what, Lynn dies in the end. Aww, how sad :'(
So, that's my review on the book. Short and simple, exactly my way.
さようなら. And that's goodbye in Japanese. In other words, it's Sayonara! So, toodles everyone! Remember, 'kira-kira' :)
