Lost

I’m out on my own again. Face down in the porcelain. Feeling so high but looking so low. Party favors on the floor. Group of girls banging on the door. So many new fair-weather friends ooo…

Have you ever been so lost. Known the way and still so lost.

Caught in the eye of a hurricane. Slowly waving goodbye like a pageant parade. So sick of this town pulling me down. My mother says I should come back home but. Can’t find the way cause the way is gone. So if I pray am I just sending words into outer space.

Have you ever been so lost. Known the way and still so lost. Another night waiting for someone to take me home. Have you ever been so lost.

Is there a light. Is there a light. At the end of the road.
I’m pushing everyone away. ‘Cause I can’t feel this anymore. Can’t feel this anymore.

Have you ever been so lost. Known the way and still so lost. Another night waiting for someone to take me home. Have you ever been so lost. Have you ever been so lost.

Please Queue Up!

I was at a grocery shop near my house today. My mother asked me to buy some frozen food for dinner. After I got everything needed, I went to the counter to pay for it.

As I was queued, suddenly, out of nowhere a not-so-old makcik cut the line. Without any feeling of guilty, she just placed all her groceries on the table. I was like, Excuse-moi, what gives?! Are u blind? Don't you see I am standing here, waiting for my turn to pay? Of course I didn't express it through words as it will make me the rude person instead or her (although I really wanted to! Geram betol!).

Although you are older than me, it doesn't give reason that you can simply cut the line. Not that I don't allow you to do so. Maybe you were in hurry, or your children were waiting in the car or you just really need to go to the toilet at that time (Hahaha!). But all you need to do is ask. Don't just cut the line. It will just make other people furious at you.

Moral of the story, lu fikir la sendiri makcik oii.

Inconspicuous

Source - Desperate Housewives - 602 - Being Alive

Definition - not prominent or readily noticeable

Synonym - Invisible








(Spoiler alert! The discussion below only applicable to anyone who ALREADY WATCHED Desperate Housewives Season 6 Episode 2)

This new season of Desperate Housewives is really exciting. The recent event was, someone strangled Julie Mayer and now, they are looking for the one that did it. I bet it was not the Bolen kid. Katherine is my suspect. Her behavior is this episode is kinda weird. Plus, her grudge with susan Mayer, that can be a motive right?

Facebook?

Scene 1 - Accidentally on Purpose - 101 - Pilot


Scene 2 - Melrose Place 2009 - 103 - Grand










Facebook is everywhere. Can't avoid it :p Anyway, be careful with all your personal data/pics that you're sharing with ur friends ya!

Mixed Feelings~

Tomorrow will be the pre-convo day for all IIUM students that will be attending the convocation ceremony next week. That includes me of course. I gonna pick my robe but the main thing is that, I will be able to meet all my classmates again. Yeay! It has been almost four months since we saw each other. Well, not all la. Some of them I had already met during Leyha's wedding reception. :p

I'm happy, but feel unease at the same time. I have the feeling that the most asked question for tomorrow will be, "Ko tgh buat aper skrg?". Adeh, malas tol nak menjawab. But nevermind, I gonna be honest with them. I will say that I still in the honeymoon period (read: still unemployed~). Hahaha! Whatever la. Maybe I'm a late bloomer. Lama2 nanti, dpt la kejer tuh. Yg penting, effort tuh mesti ada. Kasi lebey sket jer.

Hmm, right now, i have been listening to Taylor Swift's "Teardrops On My Guitar", pop version, over and over again. Don't know why, but it is a VERY NICE song! I love Taylor Swift by the way. I really like her (although I am not her number one fan since I just downloaded her songs, but never bought her cds). And most of her songs are worth listening to. Believe me! Personally, I suggest you guys listen to "Teardrops On My Guitar", "Love Story", "You Belong With Me", "You're Not Sorry" and "Forever and Always". Just search at www.4shared.com and I bet you'll find the mp3s.

Okeh, till my next post! :p

The You-Stole-My-Crocs Message

I found this message when I was visiting IIUM last two weeks, I think. A brother, name Zakuan Azizi (I don't know him, btw) left a note on a side of crocs as in the picture below. Click the picture to enhuge.


Hahaha! If I were him, I just take the Crocs and runaway already (if I 100% sure that are my Crocs la of course..). BTW, I wonder what will happen to the pencuri selipar? Habes la kena ceramah ngan si Zakuan nih. (^.^'')


P/s - A pair of Crocs was stolen at IIUM during the month of Ramadhan. Hmmm, so irony.

1 kg = ? pound

Lately, I love to watch "The Biggest Loser" at Hallmark Channel (702). Although it is the repeat one, I still enjoy watching it.



The weight loss in this series is measured in pound (lb). But in our country, we already familiarized ourselves with the SI system, which use kilogram (kg). Do you guys know how many pounds equal to one kg? Here:

1 kilogram = 2.20462262 pounds


That one I found from Google. It is the same when I calculate it again with my calculator. So, after this, whenever you watch "The Biggest Loser", u may calculate how many kg that the contestant lose during that particular week.

P/s - Really impressed with a contestant who lost 26 pounds in one week which equal to 11.8kg (26/2.205). Giler ar!

Exhausted... Not Exausted

Thanks Wee for the correction. I just noticed it. Hehe!

By the way, I screwed up my blog. I tried to use a new template and then, all the bloglist went missing. Nasib baik other widgets can be recovered. Hmm, malas giler nak copy and pasted balik link2...



P/s - After 2 months without ant posting, this is only the thing that I can write? Hahaha!

Exausted and In Dilemma...

I'm back! I will be at home for this weekend since there will be no GEMS activities at Darul Puteri. I went out from there, together with Amir at 5.20pm. Waited for bus for about 15 minutes and then catched a train to Plaza Rakyat. After Amir bought his balik-kampung tiket to Batu Pahat, we went to Mydin Pudu to buy some items. Actually, I wanted to buy so many things like another long sleeve shirt, a three-quatre pants, some shirts... But then, I ended up bought only a tie and two packest of sweets. Hahahaha! X jadi beli yg lain. Budget lari.

Then, Amir went back to hentian Pudu to wait for his 7.00pm-bus. I walked to other way, to the bustop where Metrobus no.26 is available. At that time, it was almost 7.00pm, I think. Then, I arrived at home one hour later. Hampeh sungguh~ A lot of traffic jams during that time plus, the driver mmg jalan makan angin jer bawak bas. So slow. Ok, done about the exhausted part.

Entering the dilemma part. Hmmm, I just got an email from BiotechCorp today, saying that I was selected to join the BeST programme (about time~). Some of my friends that also got selected include Adelina, Adibah, Zarul, Fathi, Wani and Amir. But the thing is, I already joining the GEMS programme. Both has their own advantages and disadvantages. GEMS consist of 2 and a half month of classroom session followed by 6 months apprenticeship. During the classroom session, GEMS provide accomodation and food to its participants. BeST consist of 3 months classroom session and 3 months attachment program. However, although they will pay us RM1000, no accomodation and food will be provided. We hv to go to various training venues in that 3 months.

Whatever it is, to me, the main problem is not about the food and accomodation. I'm lucky since I live in KL and the area that I live at has a lot of access to the public transport. The problem is, argghhh, tak tau yg mana nak decide. Dah la. No idea already.

In conclusion, Solat Istiharah jer la. Ask for guidance from Allah.

Sarong?

Source - Greek - 122 - Spring Broke

I never know that sarong is an international word until I watched this series called Greek. Let see what is the western definition of sarong:

Type: Noun
  • A loose skirt consisting of brightly colored fabric wrapped around the body; worn by both women and men in the South Pacific
Of course the pronunciation is different. They pronounce it as su-rong. Hehe! Weird!






Lets compare between their sarong and ours


Their Sarong. Look expensive right?


Our Sarong. Cheap. Rm5 can get la.
