I've been busy with work @ 8tv yesterday, and I expect to be busy today, and tomorrow, though hopefully that's it for this week. There's a few things that I wish to do before the week is out, so yeah, here's to hoping Thursday is a little better. Not that yesterday was bad.
Hahaha. I'll update when I'm back, and I'm back in blackkkkk!

They Sing Songs That Help Me
In these times of despair, I've taken to listening to songs by The Beatles, and Damien Rice. Songs that bring back memories, and songs that just are soothing to me.
The Beatles - for their melody and mostly happy music.
Damien Rice - for his deep, thoughtful, meaningful lyrics.
And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.
Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope that I don't wake up
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup

I start work tomorrow.
Going to Taman Tun again tonight, hanging with the Ninjas. Guess a few of you saw that side of me already. Hahaha.
Our presence is inevitable! Haiiiyakkkkkk!
Wish me luck for tomorrow!
:)
Manchester United play Liverpool tonight.
I'm a jumble of emotions right now.
Hmmm Hey Ho.
Hahahaha. Nah, I'm fine. I finished another book today. I think I'm going to be on a book binge soon. And I've been sleeping early a lot, for some strange reason. Maybe it's the lack of anything to do at night now. Oh, the tragedy.

But I'm Flying So High, High Off the Ground, When You're Around
You can't know, oh no
You can't know
How much I think about you, no
It's making my head spin
Looking at you
And you are looking at me
And we both know what we want
Hmmm, so close to giving in

Flying High - Jem
I finished a couple of books recently, and in them there was death and love and friendship and, well, basically what a good teen-adult novel would probably have. I haven't been avidly reading, thanks to my college life, and the fact that I haven't bought a book in a while. Plus I have always been skeptical to try out my sister's books. But I tried a couple out the other day, and they were good. So yeah, here's to reading more and more!
My dad got us a little surprise when he came back from the United States the other day. Well, not exactly surprise, per se, since I asked for it, but I was glad that he got one for me, as well as for himself and my sister.
I really LOVE my dad. And no, it's just not because I'm materialistic (though that's part of it. He he he)
So I've been away to Langkawi right after my finals, hence the lack of updates, up until now. Then, the past few days were spent cherishing and making a few things memorable, to me at least, because, well, I'm a sentimental sop in that way.
I'm learning to cope. To live without being able to call you out any other time. Bit by bit, I'm sure I can do it. But it's particularly hard for me because I've had no one I've held so close in my life go off somewhere for so long. I never did get too attached to any of my highschool friends, afraid that this would happen (I think I've told you this before). College was somehow like that too, though I guess in the end, it was bound to happen to someone.
I'm glad it was you.
But but but, I'm not going to get all emo and cry myself to sleep. I'm not going to slap on a punani face (Bet you'd have liked that, eh? Hahaha) and walk around all sad and dejected. On the contrary, I'll try get on with life as I've always done.
And the world spins madly on, eh? :)
Oh, Arthur, thanks for listening to my crap, and also talking to me. You cleared up a few things that I thought I didn't need to know, and now that I know, I'm not sure if I'm glad I asked, if it did me any good to know, but thanks anyway. (Did that make sense?) Hahaha. Gosh I feel weird, thinking back on how I acted and what I said and asked, though I think I'm just over-thinking stuff. But thanks, again.
Jas, thanks for caring. For continually asking if I was alright. For putting up with my see-saw attitude, back in Langkawi, back then, and also that night.
Anyway, Langkawi! Ahhh what a trip that was. It passed by all too quickly, but it left huge imprints in my mind. The company, without a doubt, was excellent. Adele, Div, Kash, Tsu, Jovie, Arthur, Jas, Jeaney, and last, but sure as hell not least, Miss Melissa Chen.
You people were wonderfully larger than lifesize, wondersome. Thanks for the memories.
And now before I quote any more songs, I'll get on with the pictures. I'll post my share up, and credit you guys la kan, and for the rest of them, I'll link the respective blogs where you can find the other pictures.
*Some of the photo sizes and colours are different, because of the format they were shot in. Um, yeah.
**Most, if not all of the photos are from my camera, so that's why I'm not in them. The names at the pics just show who took the picture.
***There's going to be tonnes of photos. So yeah, let them load. Sorry to those on dial-up (do they still exist? o.O)
When we got there, we drove around to get a feel for the island (plus we couldn't check in as it was still too early), and we ended up at this beach and had a little photo-session.
The only guys in the group, and we were acting, well, very much unlike guys. And the girls, were, well, girls.
We then took the cable-car up, and it was a pretty cool experience. And fuyoh Mel faced her.. er.. fear of heights. Lain kali boleh naik lagi, kan? Hahahaha.
The view from up there was pretty awesome, but somehow my photos didn't turn out right. I really need to send in my kit for a good repair. There was even this hugeeee bridge that was high up. Creepy and cool at the same time.
We also went for some island hopping. It was fun, and great photo ops just kept on coming. Passed by Pulau Dayang Bunting (Which looks like the namesake, right down to the perky boobies). Oh, and it's where I also made a fool of myself and floundered like a fish out of water when I went into the damn lake. Who'd have thought that lack of floor would me me not able to think straight. Hahahah. Fuish, well at least I know I won't jump into the water to save anyone.
Then there was the eagle feeding. I actually thought that we'd go down and feed eagles, but apparently the boat fella will just toss a few pieces of chicken into the water and we'd get to watch the eagles come down and snap them up. Not that bad, I guess.
What's Langkawi without just lying at the beach? Hmm well I didn't do it that much, since I still want to be visible at night, but a few of the others did. We had the beach to ourselves, sort of, for most of the day. It was a huge stretch, and it was near perfect.
Mel and Jas, where would I be without you two.
Actually, it's the three of you. Oh gosh. Hahaha
And so, at the beach, with a camera, some people tend to go crazy. Specially the guy who usually takes pictures.
But I wasn't alone, fuh. Thank god.
And there were the posing-posing shots.
Then there were the sunsets. They were awesome, save for the fact that I can't get a picture of the sun hitting the water. Argh, damn!
And here's the rest of the shots. Randomness, stupidness, and pure memory-making material.
One-Two-Three-Four-Five! One of the gayest thing I've ever done wtf. Hahaha.
Me and the beruang man!
There was some beach volleyball.
There were some interesting scenes going round as well. Hmmmmm
There was Adele.
There was Divya.
There was Jasmine.
And there was.. well.. you?
Haha. I'll keep this face, beb. Ku tidak akan emo.
So yeah, that's about it for Langkawi, and whatnot.
I'm sorry if I didn't put up some of you guys punya pictures, but I leave them up to you. I try to put up only mine, so that others have a chance to post up theirs.
Um, I'll update links for more pictures. Others haven't really updated their blogs yet.
And so it is. :)

Come up to meet you
Tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard

I Won't
I promise I'll try my best not to be emotional.
You're right, you're not dying, you're not leaving forever, you're just going to be gone for about 3 months. And I'm going to visit you anyway.
So yeah.
I'll get by. With a little help from my friends.
:)

Well You Were Always Invincible In My Eyes
I lie down and blind myself with laughter
Well A quick fix of hope is what I'm needin'
And how I wish that I could turn back the hours
But I know I just don't have the power yea
Could it be any harder to say goodbye, live without you,
Could it be any harder to watch you go, to face what's true
If I only had one more day (fade away, fade away, fade away, ahhah)
Well I'd jump at the chance
We'd drink and we'd dance
And I'd listen close to your every word,
As if it's your last, but I know it's your last,
Cause today, oh, you're gone.
Could It Be Any Harder - The Calling

No, it couldn't be any harder.
Past few days were days of Highs and Lows, with the all time low being my damned coughing. It attacks at random, and it's so annoying! When I get it, I'll start hacking and sweating and feeling hot and stuff. Gah! It spoilt my dinner, it spoilt my sleep, it nearly damn well spoilt my night. Hopefully it goes away soon enough. I've still got work to do.
And the highs, well, we finished our filming, I've finished Rubin's assignment, I'm going to Langkawi on Thursday night, and there's a new addition to the family.
13, 15, and now.. 17.
Group photo.
Threw the black one in since I figured I needed a rep in the family. Haha.
Gosh kena burn kao kao by the family about that one.
And that can only be one thing
Exam tomorrow! Study ahhh!
See yah!

Went to Kuantan on Friday to attend Naomi's (she was my lecturer) wedding. Left PJ at about 7.30, and it was pretty uneventful all the way to the place we stayed, the name of which I can't recall at the moment. Dumped our stuff and headed off to see the beach, since it was next to the house / place anyway.
It was a huge stretch, no people, and very windy. Only bad thing was the dirty water. Dirty as in, brown water. But then again we never planned to go in anyway. And this is where I *gasp!* took photos of people, instead of things.
*Bzzt, Dupp, Poof!* Hahahahha
Only "thing" photo I took that's worth posting.
And so, the beach.
Adele
Daniel and Shiv
This is the NuRave era of cameras, Poser-graphy! Hahaha :P
Jeaney trying out her X-men-like mental powers
I don't know what Kevin did, but Divya def got fired up
And then later that evening, we headed on to the hall for the wedding ceremony thing. I can't remember what the name of the place was, but it was pretty huge, and the ceremony was nice. Food was great too.
Must've been more tired than I felt
Bride and Groom
And my award-winning (cehwah) photo of the night! Wheeeee
While waiting for the guests to get up and get out, we went and had a little fun photo-session with the black cloth at the back.
After that we congratulated them, and had a weird and fun time trying to take group photos of ourselves. 3 diff cams were used, so um, for the other two cameras, Arthur and Daniel have the photos.
Normal..
And a "WTF-Did-I-Just-Do" photo
So yeah, that's about it. I'm still waiting for Final Cut to finish rendering a few vids. It's taking so longgg!
