Me.

Dia.

I'm just waiting till my father goes down to Indonesia - I want Maliq & D'Essentials "Free Your Mind (Repackaged)". There are a few new songs there. One of them? Just press play. Trust me, you'll love the song.



Temukan apa arti di balik cerita
Hati ini terasa berbunga-bunga
Membuat seakan aku melayang terbuai asmara

Adakah satu arti dibalik tatapan
Tersipu malu akan sebuah senyuman
Membuat suasana menjadi nyata
Begitu indahnya

Dia seperti apa yang selalu kunantikan, akuinginkan
Dia melihatku apa adanya seakan ku sempurna

Tanpa buai kata tercuri hatiku
Dia tunjukan dengan tulus cintanya
Terasa berbeda
Saat bersamanya
Aku jatuh cinta

Dia seperti apa yang selalu kunantikan, kuinginkan
Dia oh dia melihatku apa adanya seakan ku sempurna
Dia seperti apa yang selalu kunantikan, aku inginkan
Dia melihatku apa adanya seakan ku sempurna

Dia bukakan pintu hatiku yang lama tak bisa
Percayakan cinta hingga dia disni
Memberi cinta ku harapan

Dia seperti apa yang selalu kunantikan, aku inginkan
Dia melihatku apa adanya seakan ku sempurna
Dia seperti apa yang kunantikan, aku inginkan
Dia dia melihatku apa adanya seakan ku sempurna

Give me your love (nothing in this world could compare your love to me)
Give me your love now (I wanna tell the world when you give your love to me)
So come on and love me

4:28PM.

They look at each other, wondering what the other is thinking.
But they never say a thing.
And these crimes between us grow deeper.

Almost The Same.

If I could show you the sky tonight, from where I stand, I would: it's a beautiful night, the stars shining brightly, the clouds lightly illuminated by the silent heavens.

It reminds me of that night in Malacca, only maybe here the sky is prettier. I only wish I have the same company now, as I did the other night.

Hey. I miss you.

With The Stars In Our Sky.


Just a favourite of mine that I thought I'd share. What do you think? :)

Victor's Tag.

Victor tagged me a few days back. Here goes nothing.

Directions :
Once you’ve been tagged, you have to write a post with sixteen random things, habits or goals about you. At the end, choose five people to be tagged, listing their names and why you chose them. Don’t forget to leave a comment (“You’re tagged!”), and to read your blog, you can’t tag a person who tagged you. Since you can’t tag me, let me know when you’ve posted your blog, so I can see your weirdness.

Sixteen? That's... a weird number.

#1 - I am not bothered to remove the skin off a prawn before eating it.
#2 - I have fake boobs resting on one of my shelves, which is supposed to be used to relieve stress. Hey! Don't judge me - they were gifts.
#3 - I am physically 22 years old. Mentally 7.
#4 - I always try to look at things from different angles, even if I may not like what I see.
#5 - I am a huge fan of the Dave Matthews Band and Maliq & D'Essentials.
#6 - Despite the fact that I failed C++, many of my former C++ classmates still regard me as a programming God. Apparently I knew my stuff in class.
#7 - My favourite number is probably 29.
#8 - My favourite colour is probably white.
#9 - I love nasi goreng ketam. Fuck if I could eat it everyday? I wouldn't. Who the hell eats the same thing every day?
#10 - I hide my sincerity behind my jokes.
#11 - I love playing with toys. Toys R Us is probably one of my favourite places on earth.
#12 - I love my nasi lemak with all these in it: cockels, chicken, and a fried egg! Now this, if I could eat everyday? I still wouldn't.
#13 - I cannot go one day without eating vegetables.
#14 - I need a haircut.
#15 - I excel in games in a supportive role. I never do well as frontliners like Aliff, Weng Chi, Victor, Arnold and Yip. I'll stick to the Medic and Engineer classes.
#16 - I haven't had banana leaf rice in a while. Maybe I'll go next week! O_o

Alright, I've to choose five people. And the unlucky bastards are (who's to say they'll even do it >_>):
Kimberley Stephanie Banun Collin thattwistedjazzerperson (eheh eheh heh another tag for you >_>)
Also, I won't bother telling people they've been tagged. You read you wanna do you do. Simple.

Just Another Short Story.

They call me U'lir. It is out of respect for me, for I am the eldest of them all, youngest of a generation that no longer exist. I have seen the seven lights of day, bathed in the still waters of Lwob, survived three Great Floods. Great Floods which took from me all that I held dear - my friends, my family. I lost my mother - who was also my father, my brother, and my sister; the only one I ever truly loved - in the First Great Flood. She had pushed me against the edge of this great white kingdom, and I remember clinging for dear life as she was swept away into the abyss.

I lost my children in the Second Great Flood, though most at the time only knew it to be the First. Few lived to endure a second flood, and so it was that the world lay without knowing that these floods were constant, and world-devouring.

The Third Great Flood took with it more of my friends, more of my people - and more of our civilization was lost. But I endured. I lived in fear of the floods everyday of my life, and everyday I clinged to the edges of our white kingdom - many thought I was crazy, few had sympathy for me knowing the horrors I have witnessed.

The floods were always the same. Hot liquid would rain down on us - warning of a greater disaster. And then the water would rush down on us, pushing and pulling us into the darkness below.

But something was different today. Today the hot rain came, but the floods did not come immediately after. The sky began to darken, and a shadow was cast over our kingdom. Then our city was covered in a stench so foul that only Gods would be unaffected by it.

And from the sky fell a black vessel, blacker than the darkest corner of any room. It caught many of my people in it, and I saw the terror in their eyes as they tried to free themselves of it. In my desperate attempt to save myself from it, I pushed a youngling into the black vessel's grip - I will forever remember his cry for help, the disbelief in his tone as I ran away, not caring for his life.

Many tried to save those caught in the clutches of the vessel, and while doing so most did not realize that the sky had turned bright again - whatever that was casting a shadow over us was now gone.

And then I heard the familiar rumble.

It came unto us within the blink of an eye. The floods rushed down, pulling everyone and everything I knew with it. I held on with all my might, not willing to let it take me - I endured three floods, I told myself I would make it through the fourth and endure a fifth.

And so I did.

It went as fast as it came.

And still I live. There were few around me - remnants of yet another generation which has ceased to exist. We would rebuild our kingdom, together. And we would see through the sorrow of this flood, and forever live in fear of the next.

Yes. This is our life.

The life of a micro-organism living in a toilet bowl.

I have too much time on my hands.

Simple Pleasures.

Was tagged by my cousin, Kak Syu, a while back. Now that I can, here it is!

Rules:List down as many simples pleasures as you can. Now, the definition for simple pleasures would be something that almost anyone can do, without paying money for it. Something SIMPLE that makes your heart sing or makes you go "aaaahhhhhh.......".

1- Driving around in my car, with Gillian and Kimberley for company. (this does require a certain amount of money though, doesn't it? BAH WHATEVER! *runs of lalala-ing*)
2- Trading insults among friends. Now that's one where everybody wins :P
3- A great night's sleep.
4- Wonderful weather.
5- Singing birds!
6- Early morning sunshine. I love the way it lights up the room, and its warmth is just... indescribable.
7- Penning/Typing down my thoughts about anything and everything.
8- Listening to music, particularly the Dave Matthews Band and Maliq & D'Essentials. :)
9- A long, hot bath.
10- A tight, sincere hug - one of the best things to brighten up my day, even if it was already blindingly bright to begin with :D
11- Soft hair >_>
12- Laughter. Just plain laughter.
13- Lying back and dreaming up worlds of wonder with whatever imagination I have.

and because 13 might be considered an unlucky number >_>

14- A beautiful smile.

Whoop. So! Who am I tagging? I'll tag... Kimberley (not that she ever does my tags...), Victor (nice enough to do every tag I've tagged him for), Stephanie, Banun, Aliff, Yip, that girl from twistedjazzer (eheh heh heh >_>), Collin (it'll probably take him months to do it, but what the heck. The bugger's a slow blogger), and my other cousin Zahidi (God knows why I grin whenever I read his blog).

Quite a few emotes in this post, no? Hooboy.

Quiet Time.

Hi.

It's been a while, hasn't it? I guess it has. I've been occupied - very much occupied.

What are my updates for 2009 so far? There's only one significant one - I lost my car. No, not "I can't find it" or "somebody stole it" lost. It's more of a "I fucking wrecked it" kind of lost.

What can I say? It was an accident, of course. I came out with just a sore shoulder and some scratches. Thankfully.

...

I started writing this at 920PM. It's 950PM now, and I've lost the mood to carry on with posting up my thoughts. Odd, when just five minutes ago I had so much to say, so much to question.

It's annoying how... your very source of happiness, is almost always the very same source of your sadness.

I guess... this is it?

When The Heart Wanders.


To walk among giants, to be humble in the presence of pure primal instinct. To feel the Sun's rays bathe down on me, to touch the leaves above me and feel the grass below me.

I will have my way. One day, that much I know.
One day, before all your innocence is lost.

The Serengeti. Wait for me.
