I have a lot of wish which has been granted and physically I can say that I'm the luckiest lady... Those wishes are which I make it granted myself... With my own will... Maybe or should I make a wishlist for myself and see which wish I have granted?
First, one of my biggest yet longest time of wish I have want to grant but because of lack of financial when I'm still a student back then and also by another factor of lacking variety of utility like bookshops... Get the hint?
Yes... It's about books which I have been longing searching for it but doesn't available in my state or maybe because no one ever read the kind of books that I've read... Yea... Not all are same hobby as mine and not many will try to read those kind of books unless they are interested on it... Some people may think that I'm a crazy person or some will think that I'm daring to read those books but this is my excess and favorite that I think I should learn more if I'm interested in learning culture like Japan....
I love and interested in learning Japan particularly it's folktales, cultures, history and of course their Japanese ghost, mystery and "Yokai"... I don't know why I'm so addicted but I love this "the rising sun" country since I'm was in middle school...
Back to topic Ahemm~~ Sorry for my grumblings because if I want to tell you my story of about loving Japan... It won't finish in this page...
So, to cut short my story, here's what I have told you "My Wish Granted" things...
I used to find these 3 books for like ages in many bookshops I'd went and It's really disappointing me alot because they didn't sell these books... I even shown them the pictures of the cover in my phone... Even bookshops that sells international books are to no avail... Finally, on that moment... I gave up on finding it... Quite a time I've stop searching until now, in May/June (not mistaken the month) 2012, I finally found the books, actually, 2 books I found which is "Japanese Tales of Mystery & Imagination" and "Yokai Attack!"... Where do I found them? Duhh!! Not in bookshops, in internet online of course... It's MPHOnline.com saves me!! Banzai!!!! They have the books and there in the stock too!! OMG!!! I can't believe my eyes!! My feelings at that time was unimaginable and unbelievable...

And for the "Kwaidan"... That was my friend's employer, which is my friend too, whom helped me to find the book at Singapore and she get the book from Kinokuniya... And indeed the cover had changed whereas the old cover, I think it only available in Japan....
