That humble and full of love Yasmin Ahmad. So in love with this book as much as I love Yasmin How You Know?. This book taught me a lot of good stuff, a reminiscing memories of Yasmin Ahmad throughout her life, those fond memorable incidents remembered by her colleagues, friends and family. Loving all her quotes, and written words and musings be it for her works or just plain conversation between two hearts-- uplifting and fascinating. What struck me the most was probably on how Yasmin treated other people around her with so much respect and care, she never judged, only happy thoughts and 'bersangka baik'.
Yasmin I Lup Chew was a mindful book, a written precious that will touch and tickle your fragile heart with so much poetic ridiculous.
"I love you. And love is an understatement."
"Whenever I was having a crush, or going through a heartbreak, Yasmin would give me a hug and say, I lup chew."
"Don't disappear. Disappearing is easy to do. Keeping in touch is hard."
Very eye-catchy and fancy. For someone who is not that fond of non-fiction genre, this surely could fit into my favorite shelf, melting my heart and soul with her dust of magic.
"How sad it is that I'm so charming. Not pretty, or beautiful, or sweet, or anything remotely resembling a feminine thing, but just charming. What if tomorrow, while I'm sitting perfectly still, someone should love me of his own free will?"
Always love yourself for whatever it is, and "...forgive everyone who has hurt you today."
