Now you see, now you dont

Do you have a special friend that you only can see but nobody else can? I was reading Cecelia Ahern's (CA) could you see me now- which  I picked up from my colleague's desk and got caught in it for 1 whole night- so the reading spirit is back  :), I guess

To date, I only read  2 of her books – thanks for the memories and the current one could you see me now-  both ( I assume all her books) have some kind of  magic touch in them- but I found her books quite slow and monotone sometime – because it lacks intense romance :D and intense humor. However, the anticipation is there and that what keep me going - so still bearable and readable lah

Anyway – baca buku tu and dapat la idea utuk merepek diblog ni.

Have you ever had an imaginary friend? or invisible friend? CA said- he or she is always around, some people see their friends because they just see them. Some others, people like us, don’t see them because we choose not to see them- J Wow, that is scary- like seeing dead people – when you see them, you just see them heheh

Let’s see,  I think that I did have a few of these friends  during my childhood year, when I played make believe and  pretended talking to them – But only when I played on my own. They did not come when there were other real friends/people around me and nope, my family did not have to tolerate her or him on a dining table or in a living room. You know like getting her to sit on her own chair, get her a plate and place food on it.

And as for my children, I think they have enough of themselves that they don’t need another type of friend :). Yes they like to berangan as if  they are Princess Batrisa or Princess Aleeya (tah sapa sapa tah tu), or puteri bunian :) and they demand that I call them by the name of Puteri So So and So So. Sometimes  I see them tergedik2 pretending as if they are princess J or at other time, they play mak mak and ayah ayah - talking quitely to their dolls/soft toys as if the thing is their baby,  but never once I saw them having direct conversation to any invisible individual – So I reckon that  they  don’t have any invisible friends with them. 

Thanks Allah for that hehe (though imaginary friends are normal and quite healthy in general - as this article says  here).

Once, I came across a girl (when I were in my teenage years) who sat on a sofa having a cordial and animated conversation with nobody. Beriya riya sungguh dia bercakap dengan tangan tangan nya as if explaining something. I was pretty sure that she was talking to her invisible friend :), because there was nobody sitting next to her. Hmm scary hehe.

How about you all semua ? :) - ada kawan invisible masa kanak- kanak ? or ada anak yang ada kawan invisible ? :D

Till later - adios

ps: I love PS I love you movie based on the book by the same author
