Cause Day and Night, The Loneyly Stoner Seems To Free His Mind At Night
Hold the phone.
The lonely stoner missed his solo doe low.
He’s on the move, can’t seem to shake the shake.
Within his dreams he sees the life he made.
Made.
The pain is deep.
A silent sleeper, you won’t hear a peep, peep.
The girl he wants don’t seem to want him too.
It seems the feelings that she had are through.
Through.

Ah, technically esok raya! Hahahaha. But yeah, one more day of puasa, and one day left to go and find my raya clothes and shoes. Gah! Somehow this year I'm feeling okay about raya. At first, I was not really looking forward to it, since I think it's just another day. Yeah, dah habis puasa, yeah meet up with relatives. But that's it, eh? Maybe it'll be different this time round, though. I don't know. I'm approaching this one with a more.. open mind.
Perjalanan jauh tak ku rasa
Kerna hati ku melonjak sama
Ingin berjumpa sanak saudara
Yang selalu bermain di mata
Nun menghijau gunung ladang dan rimba
Langit nan tinggi bertambah birunya
Deru angin turut sama berlagu
Semuanya bagaikan turut gembira
Balik Kampung - Sudirman
*Edit: had a random thought while I was taking a piss just now. Hahaha. I wonder what would happen if you microwaved a roach. Lol

Val is leaving tomorrow (iirc), so we (a whole bunch of us) were supposed to have some sort of celebration of her creation with some Malaysian consideration within the foundations of music station. Hahaha. Yeah, supposed to be for her, though she didn't join in, so it was just us. She joined in at the end tho, after we were done, at Asia Cafe.
Through the eyes of the drunk. Ah hahahaha. Too bad it's blur, actually. Aih.
Focus lah! Aiyooooo. Cannot make it.
Oh, and Pinkyyy! Hmmm I think I should thank you? Hahaha. Sorta. You're wise beyond your years. I think. Oh, uncertainties, why has thou decideth to infiltrate thy head?
Why? So that I can see my food more clearly. Right.
Anyway. My lens-less glasses / sunnies seem to be attracting attention. Wheeeee.

Here's something out of the ordinary. I haven't done something like this in a long time, the previous one being when I came back from an event / barbecue (this post, actually), and it was early morning and I had nothing better to do. Well, this is somewhat similar in that it is extremely late at night / early in the morning, and I have nothing better to do, and I wanted to satisfy my curiosity. And entertain, yeah? ;)
Huh? What?
Huh? What?
Hahah. Yeah, what the hell, eh?
*Oh, and thanks, Lisa for letting me borrow the hat, albeit you were sleeping and I just walked into your room and took it off the stand.
*And thanks Mel for the glasses. Though they had actual lenses in them, before this. Haha
Yeah, that's it. More tomorrow, I'm sure.
The holidays we spent will fade
Now that I've been gone
Just remember
That we met
You're still at home
Listen to the voice that says alright
This is start and not the end tonight

This Plan Of Mine Is Oh So Very Lame
Now this applies both equally to you and I
The only thing we share
Is the same sky
These empty metaphors
They're all in vain
Like can't you see the grass is greener where it rains
Eve, The Apple Of My Eye - Belle X1
Doodled with the photo, added the spots and the "Yo!". This is funnnn
intelligence|inˈtelijəns|
noun :
The ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills
lack|lak|
noun :
The state of being without or not having enough of something
eman|ey ' mahn|
noun :
A boy who sometimes seems to experience both entries previous to this one, and is known to not use his intelligence at times when he needs it
I felt like I needed an entry. Nothing negative, or positive, actually, but just an entry. Actually, more of a query. So here's a question, if you may, seeing that sometimes (well, most of the time, truth be told) I lack intelligence.
What would you do if you were me? In what you think my situation would be, and given that you were in my shoes, what would you do?
Me, I'd step out of my shoes and go run barefooted across the field, just to have a taste of what it's like to be free of constraints. But then at the end I'd come back and put on the shoes, because I know even if they made me suffer in a sense that they were uncomfortable, or not what I thought they'd be, they add colour into my life. And they're nice to look at too.
Oh, and the fact that they protect me from harm is a bonus as well.
Wait, no, don't answer that.
Though my jeans are too tight
Don't feel like dancing
And all this light is too bright
Don't feel like shining
Though this room is too small
I'd rather stand against the wall
And hope that no one sees me
And everybody's dancing
I don't want to
And everybody's toying
I don't want to
And everybody's laughing
I don't want to
Everybody but me
Everybody But Me - Lykke Li

Disregard, Please
Everything (aside from the Mamma Mia part) in the previous post. Sometimes I feel so self-destructive I come up with sentiments that I would otherwise keep inside.
Bad habit, isn't it?
*Why I didn't delete the previous post? Because I know some people will find it interesting. And I believe deleting is considered cheating, in a sense, in the blogging world. Nay? ;)
Oh you can take your time baby, I’m in no hurry, know I’m gonna get you
You don’t wanna hurt me, baby don’t worry, I ain’t gonna let you
Let me tell you now
My love is strong enough to last when things are rough
It’s magic
You say that I waste my time but I can’t get you off my mind
No I can’t let go
’cos I love you so

New blog layout and style. Hahaha. Had a sudden burst of inspiration. Plus I thought my old layout look super ugly and messy. God knows what I was thinking. This one is so much more neater and prettier and cleaner and.. I like my drawings (Yeah, I'm a little self-praising in that sense) So yeah. New layout might mean new things. I feel the winds of change a blowing.
Watched Mamma Mia just now, courtesy of Pinky / Mel. Thanks for the invite :) The movie, well.. it was pretty damn entertaining. It's in a different vein compared to Across the Universe (Which in itself is also a pretty damn good movie), being a more happy and fun musical. I must admit I did not really set that high an expectation when I was about to watch it, but I'm so happy it went above and beyond what I thought it would be.
Oh, and I had my eyes opened today. Reality bites in weird ways, I guess. Bit me at rather odd times, yeah. Once when I woke up, twice in college, and once when I was in the toilet, taking a piss during the movie (No I did not piss in the cinema, I went to the loo) Can't say that I enjoyed them bites, specially while taking a piss. Hahaha. That sounds a little wrong, doesn't it? Getting bitten while taking a piss. So yeah. Bites. Can be pretty painful, though at first I always disregarded them as nibbles, more than anything else. But, gather enough small nibbles and you get pretty nasty bites.
I've got one foot out the door, I'm half a step away from everything. But I'm not taking everything, though. I'm leaving some bit of me behind, so that one day I have something to come back to. Movies and novels implant romantic and sometimes (actually most of the time) unrealistic ideas in my head, so I've got them to thank for this. The ideal life is just that. Ideal. Not exactly something that I can see happening to me anytime soon. So the bites are sort of pushing me, in a sense, though I cannot see the good in it. Not yet. Or maybe I don't want to.
What I know the bites are doing to me is they make me focus more on going on with my college life, at least. I've got three subjects that are going to dictate my acceptance into my university in Australia, and I cannot screw up. I've got too much at stake to risk that. I'm hanging on leaving as an escape, in a sense. Maybe if I'm not here, then I won't be here. Hahaha. How's that for being cryptic.
I said I was not moving, and I still hold on to that. I'm not moving. I'm just getting a room to rent. Inevitably, I'll come back. I know I will. Novels and movies, again. But in the mean time, maybe a change of scenery is warranted, though I can't really bring myself to do it. I guess I need a push, but I can't accept that. Pushes can be pretty damn painful, if you know what I mean. Knowing that I need that push is what makes it that much harder to accept. Expecting a push from someone is worse.
I don't want to be pushed.
And we'll become silhouettes when our bodies finally go

Here's to us one more toast and then well pay the bill

I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter

Say My Name, Say My Name, Say My Stupid Name
It's stupid how we always seem to do it again.
Give yourself away, feel the wind blow,
We're watching movies on the ceiling, all the artists we know,
If there's someone you don't like you don't have to say hello.
Because because
I'm sick of all the bones you throw
Because because
There's nothing from the seeds you sow
Because because
I can't remember why I'm here
Because because
It's all become so crystal clear
And when I'm tired, I'm so very tired
And when it's done, it's like I've killed someone
Again & Again, La La La, Because - The Bird and the Bee
There's no reason you should leave

All This Time I've Missed You, And Searched This Human Race
Could we stay right here
Till the end of time, until the earth stops turning

Look into my eye
Till the end of time, until the earth stops turning
Gorecki - Lamb
*Click snap!*
Went on a very unsatisfying trip to the national zoo. I think the trip can be summed up in one word : Bleh. It was not as interesting as I'd have hoped, and I think Kin Meng and Lisa would agree with me on that one.
Look into my eye
First of, the exhibitions were a little dull. It might have been the time of day, it might have been that we came when there was nothing going on. But then again, when I looked at the exhibition sites, I was like "Erm, okay.." Colour was not that exciting either, being so brown and whatnot, though I do get that some zoos have to be very earthly / naturely colour themed.
Can you spot us?
Then there were the animals themselves, which I cannot fault them, to be honest. The most captivating of all the animals there were birds. The others just did not seem to um, capture our interest as much as the birds did. Monkeys came quite close, though. Oh and that little naked dude (who Kin Meng said escaped from the monkey cage area).
Birds can fly so high, and they can shit on your head
So in the end, both Kin Meng and I decided to concentrate a little more on birds, more than anything else. We tried to get Bird In Flight (B.I.F) shots, testing out the 40d's auto-focus and the lens' focus speed. Was not too bad, actually. Managed to get a few nice ones.
Of course, there were the um, enclosed area of birds as well, though there were not that many that captured my attention.
Hopefully the next trip we go on (maybe the bird, butterfly or any one of the Lake Gardens places) will be better. They better be. And we're looking for new places to take photos. So, suggestions? Do comment.

'Cause That's the Way Uh-huh Uh-huh I Like It
Sometimes she's hot, sometimes I'm cold,
Sometimes my head wants to explode,
but when I think about it, I'm so in love with her,
Every other time.
Yeah, every other time.
Every Other Time - LFO

The weekend is here, today is the 13th day of fasting, and I somehow managed to survive a week of very late nights and damning assignments.
Friday night was pretty good, in the sense that I was feeling ultimately relieved, and promptly zonked out at around midnight, waking up only to have my sahur and then falling asleep again until around 2 pm. Whoa it's been a while since I did that. Hahah.
On Thursday, oooh boy did I stay out very late. Met up with a bunch of sneaker-heads and I just had to buy something, I was too itchy. Haha. Might be more coming, eh?
Yes, I did.
I can't actually think of any good or logical reason for this post, save for the fact that I got myself a pair of new shoes. Haha. Sad case.

I Was Dreaming In the Driver's Seat, When the Right Words Just Came Up To Me
Thursday, September 11, 2008
Maybe I've Been the Problem, Maybe I'm the One to Blame
Stars looking at a planet, watching entropy and pain
And maybe start to wonder
How the chaos in our lives could pass as sane
I've been thinking about the meaning of resistance
Of a hope beyond my own
And suddenly the infinite and penitent begin to look like home
I've been thinking about everyone, everyone you look so empty
But when I look at the stars, when I look at the stars
When I look at the stars, I see someone else
When I look at the stars, the stars
I feel like myself
Stars - Switchfoot

Oh, chaos can come form all around, and the most dangerous form of it would be from within. All hell breaks loose in the case of chaos from within. Why, though? Why allow such a thing to actually happen? Why pay attention to thoughts that do nothing to help, that only serve to put the mind into a frenzy of doubt and suspicion?
Stand out, sometimes, will you?
Being able to identify the root of the problem is something that I dearly wish I can do. I'd give up almost anything to know why I have the tendency to be all.. weird. So many times I wish the problem would stand itself out, instead of being a blur in the background.
And so many times, I know, I've been beating myself over something that I should have not given much thought to. I'm guilty of over-thinking, and oh how I wish I could stop. I know how frustrating, how irritating, how stupidly idiotic it can get. And I've no excuse, no reason, no explanation for it.
Oh, look. Pretty blur

I thought music and photography would provide me with an exit clause. When those things did little to help, I turned to books. Oh, yes, books helped, but as with Yin and Yang, with the help that I received, came more problems, most of which does not need to be revealed. But yeah, the three things that I thought could help me in some way, have somehow turned against me.
Photography, though, still remains the best way, of the three, to escape. Not just the taking photos part, but anything related to it. The going out and looking for something for my camera, going online to look at things that I can do to improve, playing around with settings and such. Ah, bliss.
I wonder what it's like to be a dragonfly.
Oh, I find that I can get lost in football, another thing that I used to really enjoy. Now though, ah, well.. Times have changed, I guess. Gone are the days when I would wake up and watch a match that I would probably have known the outcome.

Yeah, the sun, setting. My candle, burning. How long left, eh?
And to think that I was doing pretty damn well for the past two weeks.

Pain Will Double If You Leave Me Now, 'Cause I Don't Know Where To Look For Love
Oh, girl
I’d be in trouble if you left me now
‘Cause I don’t know where to look for love
I just don’t know how
Oh Girl - The Chi-Lites

Ah, I've been a little too busy with my life that I've neglected my photo-taking instincts. So just now I decided, to hell with this, I want to take some photos. Went out, even though I thought it was a little too hot for my liking, and scouted my garden. Was not really surprised to come up empty handed, though I think I must have looked pretty funny, walking around with my rig (which is obnoxiously ridiculous, to be honest).
Left, Right, and Front view, with a little back for some flavour
Spotted a few wasps (?) and I thought okay, they would be the subject for today. And yeah, snap snap snap. It was pretty intimidating, since I did not know if they could actually hurt me or not. All throughout the shoot I was always keeping an eye on them, afraid that one might just quietly nip in behind my ear and plop it's stinger there. Or something.
Then, predictably, Batman became jealous.

Aha, hey. Not bad, eh?
Oh, yes, I was not done yet with the post. Just decided to end it there for a while, so that I could show the photos, and go grab some dinner. I've got some minor additions to my camera setup, as you might notice from the picture above (the one of my, um, well, camera setup). Got myself an off-shoe camera flash cord, as well as an extension bracket / arm for my flash. Been wanting the cord for a while, and I thought the extending bracket / arm would not be a bad idea. Yeah.
Playing with the flash off the camera was interesting. Did not experiment much, but I let the Joker have his share of the limelight.

I've got a few things left to do, most of which I've been putting off for later, though the phrase "Comes and bites you in the ass" springs to mind when I think of all the things I have to do. Well, at least it'll keep me on my toes for the next coming months. Oh, and my parents had a new TV um, wall, thing, put up. They felt that it suits the place more, compared to the older one. Or something like that.
Want to go Across the Universe, sometime, maybe?
Maybe nothing lasts for ever,
Not the mountain or the sea.
But the times we have together,
They will always be with me.

Au revoir

She Said, "What?" He Said, "You"
"Right, birds can fly so high, or they can shit on your head,
Yeah they can almost fly into your eye and make you feel so scared.
But when you look at them, and you see that they're beautiful,
That's how I feel about you.
Right birds can fly so high and they can shit on your head,
Yeah they can almost fly into your eye and make you feel well scared.
But when you look at them, and you see that they're beautiful,
That's how I feel about you.
Yeah that's how I feel about you."

The long absence of blog posts recently was due to the fact that I was in Langkawi. Decided to head there as a couple of Mel's friends came back to for a while, and one has not been to Langkawi before. Plus we thought we'd benefit from getting away. In the end, it was a pretty decent trip for me, though maybe for others it wasn't as pleasant.
Oh, won't you say you love me? Or at least my non-existent boobies?
In a sense, it was a more.. fun trip, compared to the last time. Yeah, it was marred a little by some thinking that shouldn't have come up or whatnot, but it wasn't as um, bad, for want of a better word, compared to the last time I went there.
Fasting was not really an issue, as I didn't really find it difficult to fast and enjoy myself there. Almost effortless, though I did avoid participating in anything that might've made me more tired than I'd have deemed necessary. So most of the trip was spent reading and at the beach. I had my chance to relax, to have some quiet time, to enjoy myself in that peaceful sense.
The oh so fantastic foursome.
I also managed to clear my head, to clarify a few things, and for once I didn't really spill out problems, instead I listened to people. Quite some feat, I guess, since I'm usually the problematic one. That's not to say I didn't have problems, since I was feeling a little choked up on the first night, and I was pretty angry at myself on the last night. But all in all, I really think I fared better than I thought I would.
I didn't really get to spend as much time as I would've liked with some people, though I accept the reasons why. It's not always that you have time to spend with some friends, so I let that pass. Would've been selfish of me, as well. So yeah.
Give me a Hell Yeah!
I learnt some things that I guess I should've known before, but maybe I was too blind to see, or too stubborn to accept. Oh, and on the last night, I saw the most stars I've ever seen in my sort-lived 20 years of life. It really left me going "Wow!", to the extent that I actually shouted "Look up! F**king look up at that!" when I first saw them.
I'd take you to the moon and back, if I had to.
I didn't feel as much pain as I thought I would, which I'm very grateful of. I didn't let emotions really take hold of me, I didn't do a lot of things that would've made the trip a sour experience for me. So all in all, I was on pretty decent behaviour (that's what I feel) throughout the trip, and I didn't not enjoy it. One thing though, I felt that it was a very short trip this time. Like, very. But hey. I've got a few more opportunities to make up for it. God willing.
Apparently I'm not that bad with girls, yea? Teehe
And just now, I helped you out with your work, and I felt happy that I could, though maybe you found my um, analness towards some of the grammar and whatnot a bit suffocating. But that's just me. You were doing good, and it looks like you'll do pretty damn fine in this. And that's what I'd like to believe.
So you make me proud, okay? Make my eyes fill with tears of joy when one day, in the future, I see you.
Yes. You. My world. Synonymous.
And I'll go, "Damn. That's my girl."
:)
