I heard that song before



I heard that song before is a story of love, loyalty and deceit. The story revolves around Kay Lansing Carrington newly wed to a chronic sleepwalker Peter Carrington and her struggles to clear her husband name of a crime that he believes was committed during his sleep walking state.

Twenty-two years ago, Kay sneaked into the hidden chapel of the Carringtons' Mansion and overheard an argument between a man and a woman. That same evening, an eighteen years old Susan Althrop drove home with Carringtons' heir, Peter--- and disappear. Now 22 years later, that argument is a an important piece of puzzle to help clear the cloud of suspicion that hung around her husband since Susan's disappearance.



Mary Higgins Clark


With a page turner suspense plot that can rival that of the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie, Mary Higgins Clark clearly lived up to her title as the Queen of Suspense giving the benefit of doubt to the reader. The book is a great bland of James Patterson subtlety with Christie's plot. It kind of remind me of Mary, Mary and The Unexpected Guest that somehow got a heap of love from both Kay and Peter.

I cannot say much of the author as I only read one of her book (shame on me) but so far I love this book lots and plan to read all 24 of her bestselling book. The fact that i don't even know that she exists until 2 days ago is eating me inside out.

Its kinda hard to plan for something. As the saying goes it is easy to plan but not to execute. A light year ago I was begging my father to let me go to Taylors College and spare me 4 month (and counting) torture and now he jovially joked (or so i hope) about Oxford University. Can you spare me of the pain?

There's always something of a give and take situation with me. I always get something but afterward I'll lose something of equal value. This is true as far back in my early years as i can remember. Until now I need to think twice to want something for fear that I lose another. Which is rationally stupid right? I got what I want for my SPM result but in return I got this also. Ah, what a wonderful life huh?

Honestly, sometimes I just can't stop thinking how suck my life is. But I cant stop thinking there will be others that feel just the same if not worse also. So in a way I am good. Kinda.

On the flip side, I'm waging war with my own habits!(which is good right?) Which include being too nice to others haha.

Till then!

    In fact, sometimes being rational brings unpleasant outcome , and when we want something pleasant , we have to drop conscience in making decisions ...
