This and that

You know how people tend to say one thing and do the opposite. I guess it's something we all have or will come across at some point of our lives. It's really frustrating sometimes because why would someone say something and do something else?


For example, let's have two friends; Lenny and Manny. Lenny made a mistake and made Manny upset. So Lenny apologizes and decides to call a truce with Manny's approval of course. Lenny asks if they're still friends and Manny says hell yeah. Then from that time onwards, Manny never ever speaks to Lenny again unless absolutely necessary.


Now, you get a rough idea of what I'm talking about here? I don't get it, I just don't. Why did Manny do that? It doesn't make much sense to me.



I'm listening to Death Cab For Cutie right now(awesome band! go have a listen) and I find some of their lyrics do make sense sometimes. Here're a few examples.

• "Instincts are misleading."
• "There's no comfort in the waiting room."
• "Fear is the heart of love."
• "That every plan is a tiny glimpse of Father Time."
• "Our memories depend on a faulty camera in our mind."

Have I mentioned that I love Death Cab's music like crazy?? I seem to remember doing so previously in a post I did a while ago. And if you missed it, well, I really really really really really really really love Death Cab For Cutie. So there you go. And I'm also quite sure you can tell from the list on the right side of my posts, where I've listed almost everything I love/like/am into/dig.



On the day I turned 16, which wasn't too long ago, I asked my mum if I could have a pet lion. Yes, your eyes aren't playing tricks on you and neither has your computer screen gone bonkers. I wanted a pet lion. I still do of course. But I wonder where I would have to get the food from, who would clean Rex's poo and stuff. Yep, I've even named it Rex. I could comb Rex's mane every single day. And even though I wouldn't be able to bring Rex out for walks everywhere, I hope I'll have some kind of field for him to run in where my home is. Of course, all this seems impossibly awesome and dreamlike. But a girl can dream can't she?


Heading to Arif's for lunch tomorrow cause it's Hari Raya. Mercy's coming over in the morning. Then we'll go out for a movie after lunch and then will have dinner at Roost or Treetop(correct eh Merce???). Von's coming back tomorrow too. And off we'll go to Tanjung Balau(some beach near Desaru, it's supposed to be safer and cleaner) on Thursday for a little family trip. Baking session at my place on Friday with Merce, Serah, Melly, Cal(hopefully) and Fann(haven't asked her yet =X)! Happy holidays to everyone else.



Can hear them fireworks and all sounding from afar. Just in case I forget to say this,
Selamat Hari Raya!

Important Message : Falls of Clyde

Came across this on the net and thought I should share this with everyone.
There's this really old ship they're going to sink.
Please help by signing the petition so that the ship isn't sunk.

Thanks heaps!

The Falls Of Clyde

The Falls of Clyde is the last four-masted tall ship in existence built in 1878, Glasgow, Scotland. She is on the list as a National Historic landmark. She is owned by Bishop Museum of Honolulu Hawaii and is moored at one of their satellite museums the Hawaii Maritime Center. She is going to be sunk this month if they do not receive donations to save her. This huge amount of money that is said to be needed to save the ship is ridiculous. It is a ploy to mislead the public into thinking that nothing can be done to save the ship (she could also be put in concrete where she is berthed at much less cost). The San Diego and Texas Seaport Museum have similar ships also built in Scotland, and a year older than the Falls of Clyde. Both of these museums experienced in dry docking and saving ships to our knowledge have not been contacted by Bishop Museum.

Back to black.

Hello all.

Finally done with every single one of them trial papers. It's been exactly 26 days since I last blogged and I sure as hell have a lot suppressed in me. Feels awesome to be able to take a breather after what seemed like an eternity(it's merely been a little less than three weeks). But even after all the anxiety, last minute studies, 'freaking out', false fronts, high expectations and soon to come disappointments/satisfaction, it's good to know that this coming one-week-long holiday would definitely give all of us a huge boost to strive harder as time ticks away like nobody's business.

Here are a few difficulties I went through since the day of my last post.

1. I'm a lazy person. A very very lazy person. I procrastinate, I wait till the last minute, and then the 'freaking out' begins.[Note : Freaking out for me is all words and no actions, I'm just not the type who picks up a book to revise at the last minute.]
2. The tips that were spreading around was really affecting me. I'm sure every one of you appreciate and welcome tips, especially tips for those major examinations that are paid more attention to such as the trials examination we've just barely braved through. I welcome them too, but sometimes I just feel it's just not fair towards all the other people who never got tipped off about the paper. Besides, for those who are growing dependent on tips, what're you going to do when there aren't any tips for you anymore?
3. As for those who cheated during the papers, you know who you are and you probably didn't know that several of us know it damn well too. We're not blind, we just act oblivious. You should really stop all this cause we've been shielding you people for far too many times now.
4. I set my alarm for 3am, but my dog Cino wakes me up at 2.09am and keeps me up. Thank God for awesome friends like Mercy who rang me up at 3 in the morning just to run through our Accounts syllabus and ask each other questions we couldn't answer the other because we're taught differently by two abnormally mad very different teachers.
5. I had a misunderstanding with someone and I was deeply troubled with it. By this, I wasted quite a lot of time brooding over nothing.
6. Being one who loves to think about everything and anything, I wondered about things like : "What if I run out of pen ink/test pad?" "What if I wake up late and didn't go to school for my paper?" "Why couldn't it have rained today?" "Why people started relationships young?" "How do people really trust each other?" "Why do people lie and put up a false front?" "Why I can't seem to get my head to remember details of History for my paper?" "Is that person being a hypocrite because of me?" "Can someone please explain the periodic table to me?" "How come you get to make the decisions and I get no say at all?" "Why do people smile when they are crying out on the inside?" "Why do my nails grow so fast?".
7. I deprived myself of my music drugs. People, I'm talking about me not getting on the computer for my daily dose of songs as much as I always do. That was real pain I tell you.
8. I don't like noises not made or started by me, that I will admit.
9. I missed a couple of lunches on Fridays with a few friends who always helped start off my weekend with a blast. I didn't even go out as often as I used to anymore(probably also due to the fact that there wasn't anyone to go out and hang with).
10. I had to resist the temptation of reading the novels and books I have at home again. After only about 6 times.

So there you go. Just some stuff that I could/would have blogged and ranted about.




On the other hand, I'm going to be random for a moment.


"You said we could be friends, but we're no where like how we used to be."
"You came back, had your fun, then went away again."
"You were my buddy, but we don't even talk anymore."
"You got busy with your own world, and by that you stepped out of mine."
"You are lost, and still not found."
"You make promises and put them in a bottle, then you empty it when the bottle has been filled like it never mattered."
"You wanted that, but this is all I can offer."
"You gave a reason, an absurdly unreasonable one."
"You start a fire, and time feeds it gasoline."
"You don't get it sometimes, and sometimes I can't make you get it either."
"You might be gone, but you're still around somehow."



Burnt out,
physically cause I went out with the people who bring fun to a whole new level;
and
mentally cause of them muggings.



My heartfelt thanks to the people I hung with today =D :
MercytheCaramelBabe, you're always there when I need fun. I'm sorry if I dragged you to anywhere you didn't want to go(KL for youknowwhat) or to do anything you didn't want to. I'll write you an essay really really soon.
SerahtheCuteTwin, I'm sorry if I made you cry. Your facial expressions are totally classics, every single one of them. Will write you essay if you want me to too.
MelanietheOneWhoTreatsMeLikeAPillow, I know you totally LOVE my shoulder, I know you miss me sharing a bus with you, I know you miss hitting on me(my shoulder to be exact lol). Hold on to your sanity, you'll be one of the brighest supernovas yet. Will write essay if you want me to too.
SiWeitheBlurWoman, we've known each other for a while and even though we don't hang out much together, we share more happy memories than those unmemorable ones. I'd love to spend more time with you, for you have been one great friend to have. If you want an essay too, you know what to do.
AdelineYaptheBunsGirl, although we only shared a bus ride today, you're always having those silly moments with Mercy and you guys really do make me laugh my head off. We've gone through this year along with CallyWallyPally and SarahWongmyOtherTwin, finally we've finished our job. Loved working with you and all the jokes and talks we had. Essay?
