This is how I spent the morning of my birthday


At 11:45am today, the first 200 copies of What Your Teacher Didn't Tell You rolled off the printer and were cut and packaged. The launch is tonight! But we in Matahari Books believe in living dangerously ;-)

I think it's the most gorgeous book we have produced! Full credit to Liza Manshoor (the designer) as well Mr & Mrs Heng (the printer) and Fallon (who provided the difficult-to-get, thick 100% recycled paper that we used).

See you tonight, Insya-Allah. Phew!

In my speech, I will reveal how I first met Farish. (Some ulama from north of the country were involved!)

Well, birthdays are merely symbolic of how another year has gone by and
how little we've grown. No matter how desperate we are that someday a better self will emerge, with each flicker of the candles on the cake, we know it's not to be, that for the rest of our sad, wretched pathetic lives, this is who we are to the bitter end. Inevitably, irrevocably; happy birthday? No such thing. - Jerry Seinfeld
