I'm seriously damn fed up abt what happened last Fri!
What happened to going to KFC? U said we were going to KFC. Fine. Then wth were we all doing, dilly dallying after we got down fr Conference Room? Shouldn't we have just left de place and went to KFC instead? Then Ade came, and we somehow had to stay for a while. U said 'menghormati'. Fine again. Then we end up leaving only at 2135++. After all that, u changed ur mind, just cos A was riding a bike? Like wtf?? Bike can park there, right? Since he's living at Bedok anyway. Couldn't he have just ride his way to de KFC at Bedok? Even if he DOESN'T wanna park his bike there, could've also came back for de bike later on at night pe. U all are living in de East anyway..
Even if u wanna change de venue, at least call me and ask for my opinion. NOT call me to tell me that u've made up ur mind to change de venue. If that's de case, why bother calling me in de first place? Yes, I admit I was walking fast that night. My reason for doing so? If I had not walked fast, I think u and N would be dilly dallying even more lah. That's ok for u guys, but not for me. Where do I live, and where go U guys live? I'm not whining here, but have u ever spared a thought for me?
Sidetrack a bit here: I think I'm NOT going to bother coming down for anymore meetings. Reason being is that it's almost always de same faces anyway. And I feel I'm NOT contributing much. So why bother, right?
U always say that it's hard to get ppl to come down, right? My answer to that is: I think de prob here is making ppl WANT to come down. I mean if u only call them when u need de numbers, and don't bother calling or smsing them at any other times, would ppl WANT to come down? What happened to those times when u sms me just to tanye khabar? Thinking and looking back, that was rather nice of u to do that. But now? Busy? With this and that? Takkan ah so busy sampai mcm gitu kan? Byk nah benda nak mark ke? And de thing that makes me damn pissed is, yesterday when u rhetorically asked 'Besok nak buat apa, eh?'. Seriously lah, WTF???

Dear brother
To be honest, I'm seriously damn pissed with u. And to think u even have de cheek to make it seem as if u're de better one! Not forgetting ur frens after getting into a relationship with someone, is not just abt calling them to ask for cigs, when u're out of cigs. U call that not forgetting ur frens? Sial lah! Utter rubbish sia! Not forgetting ur frens would mean still hanging out with them, even after u have a someone special. NOT hanging out exclusively with her, and her group of frens, only.
And also, just now otw to de mosque, talking to u, it just feels different. It's no longer de same like last time. It may just be me lah, but I feel really hurt after what u said in ur sms. Sape yg tak layan sape skrg? Lau aku tak layan kau, aku tak sms kau hari tu langsung lah. Tak amik kisah pun apa kau nak time kau call aku lah..
Whatever it is, I guess only time can tell if things can be de same like last time. I guess I need time.
Your brother
Crap!
11:48 pm - Sunday, November 16, 2008
This is crap! Total crap indeed!
But then again, what can I say, right? After all, like what u said to me, this IS YOUR house. At that point in time, just fyi, I wanted to retort to u, "Ye lah Yan. Nie kan rumah kau". U know how tempting it was for me to say that to u, in ur face? Let me tell u, it WAS VERY tempting indeed... But I held myself back. I held myself back from using de most sharpest sword that could cut thru ur heart. Cos it'll only make worst the already bad situation in YOUR house now. And somehow I didn't want that.
There are so many kinds of ppl in this world. Not every1 fits into ur ideal. Not every1 is like Adib. So what if he's not like Adib? He can't come over just cos of that? What utter rubbish! For one thing, Alhamdulillah I'm glad that MY poly life is great so far. And I'm enjoying it, while I still can. And whatever happened to "bawak je lah kwn adik"? So now I must ask u first? YOUR house. Yeah I remember that. Whatever lah ah. I'm sorry if I irked u. But hey, U didn't tell me of ur change of stance. So it's not totally MY fault, right?
For one thing, I hate whatever is happening in YOUR house now. It's been so long, I've even forgotten what is it exactly that we were fighting abt! U don't feel de same way? It's been said that home is where de heart is. So why don't I feel at home?
This is crap! Total crap indeed!
Happy Happy Happy
12:41 pm
Yesterday was a happy day for me indeed.
Firstly, I attended, FOC, 2 workshops. One starting at ard 0940, and another at ard 1440. De first one was great. I really enjoyed myself there. Falicia, de one who ran this workshop, was really knowledgeable in her subject matter. And de activities were really enlightening. Who knew that just by playing a simple game of throwing 2 balls for ice-breaking could achieve so much?
Just to share with every1.. It's easier to say throw de ball to someone u DON'T like. Reason being is that when u say throw to someone u LIKE, ppl may find it weird. Weird as in what if there's NO ONE that u like? Haha! And it's not just throwing balls ard. U must remember who u pass de ball to, and who u rec'd it from. So it's making it easier to get de ball rolling throwing. And it's making it easier to remember de names, too? Cool stuff, right?
And when u have to elect a leader, ask every1 to raise their index finger, and at de count of three, point it to someone who they feel is most suited to be de leader. So it makes it easier too, as de conductor doesn't anyhow arrow anyone. And this method is used too when choosing someone who has to come up to present. Cool stuff again, right?
Second, I rec'd an sms from a particular someone who hasn't been replying to my smses. Waiting is smthg really unpleasant to do. And I've been waiting to receive smthg, anything fr this particular person. I was very glad indeed to receive de sms from that particular someone. It was smthg I didn't expect. Nevertheless, it really made me smile. :)
Next is actually getting to meet de particular someone! How cool is that, right? Remember I said abt attending 2 workshops earlier on? Well, this particular someone attended it too. De 2nd one. Was kinda surprised that this particular person would be there. So after de initial shock, was actuali happy that this person was there too.
Fourth is being de first person to know that a fren, and de girl that he has been wooing, are officially together! First person leh! It's always nice to be de first in anything, right? Haha! Hearing how he roped in his frens to set up a surprise picnic by de beach at Sentosa for her, was such an 'Aaawww' moment. So touching. Hehe.. Congrats, Mim. I'll take u up on ur word for being PTS, aites? ;)
So that was how it went. A happy day for me indeed.
Dear brother

Dear brother
First and foremost, I know u anggap me as a brother (at least I think so lah), even thou I don't call u that in person. Mcm so kekok gitu nak panggil kau 'brother'. Feels so weird. Anyways, I hope u take what I'm going to say positively, and not take it to heart.
*Clears throat*
I know u like her, and she likes u too. Hey, it's good that de feeling's reciprocated, but then again, I guess u already know better de current situation, right? Why take, or I'd rather say, attempt to take, someone who's rightfully someone else's?
It's no issue that she's older than u, but then again, has it ever crossed ur mind that her current squeeze could be older than her, and hence, older than u too? And that he probably is a biker too? I'm just guessing here, but I guess he is riding a bigger bike than her. And thus, he has his grp of bigger bike frens. And if somehow he got wind of what is currently happening in sch, if he were to come down to NYP with his frens to look for u, u're just a small fry to him?
De best situation could be that u both are serious abt each other, and stay together lah. That I'd say, is de BEST situation. But de situation now is far from being de best. Has it ever crossed ur mind too, that if she can do this with her current squeeze, she can also do this with U? Then what are u left with? Nothing? And u'd be feeling damn disappointed? Is that what u want? I'd definitely NOT want that to happen to u, for sure.
And I see u're now mixing exclusively with her, and her frens. So now ur other frens mean nothing to u anymore, zit? What happened to MCG? What happened to wanting to perform during de Lunchtime Show that just passed? What happened to studying together? What happened to going swimming together? Or gym-ing together? It's not that I don't wanna sms u and ajak u anymore, but with everything going on now, I'd rather not disturb u. It seems u're either busy with BBDC, or with her. So what's de point, right? I defly don't see any point in doing so.
Whatever it is, I just hope that u know what u're doing, and what u're getting urself into. I pray that nothing bad comes upon u. Ameen.
Your brother

5? 10? 15?

Dear ???
I was totally shocked when I got wind of what u said. 15? When was it ever 15? It has been 5 once, and 10 subsequently. But 15? Were u dreaming or smthg? Dreamt that it was 15? OMG. Don't tell me it's been misappropriated? And by u? That's like de last thing I'd expect U to be doing lah.
Whatever it is, I hope u noe what u're doing.. That's all I can think of saying. What else CAN I say, right?

Study in sch
1:31 am
My inaugural attempt at studying in sch went well, I suppose. If u consider sleeping fr abt 4.45 to 6pm to be 'well' that is. Haha! De thought was there lah. I seriously can't study at home for sure. Once de telly is on, that's it! All hopes of studying goes up in smoke.
Thou I've been meaning to get a good 6hr of sleep every nigth, that's smthg I've NOT been able to do. Distractions, distractions. It's either de telly or de Net. That explains why I'm blogging at this unearthly hour. So as a result, I get less than 6hr of sleep. And sometimes even only 4! So I'd be sleepy in sch. And de vicious cycle carries on and on everyday.
So for yest, as soon as my Bio book was opened, coupled with de somehow more soothing than normal music coming out fr my K800i, it was shut-eye time. "Just for a while" I reasoned to myself. And that "a while" turned out be until 6! Haha!
Oh well.. tml's another day. :)
CLEAR
1:35 am - Monday, November 10, 2008
I am seriously considering leaving my CLEAR card at home. Never to take it out and bring with me wherever I go. It's such a double-edged sword. It can be a really handy lifeline. It can also be a forbidden fruit. And mind you, when it's a forbidden fruit, it really tastes damn nice!
But that's de thing. I've been using it more as a forbidden fruit, then as a really handy lifeline, only to be used when in seriously dire times. It's so tempting.
Leave. CLEAR. card. at. home!!!
COTTON? ON
1:12 am
For a brand that's called Cotton On, some of their tees are made of 65% polyester and 35% cotton. Talk abt misrepresentation! Haha!
And check out their Refund and Exchange Policy, printed on their Tax Invoice: You can choose between a refund, exchange or gift voucher where goods are faulty, wrongly described, different from a sample shown to you or don't do what they are supposed to.
Wrongly described? I wonder if I can go back and ask for a refund, citing that their tees are wrongly described, cos they are made of polyester and cotton, whereas de brand is called Cotton On. So in a way, it's implied that stuff from them SHOULD be made of cotton, right? Haha!
Subaru's put-ur-hand-on-de-car
12:24 am - Sunday, November 09, 2008
At ard noon yest, marked de start of de Subaru put-ur-hand-on-de-car competiton. I serious shit can't recall what that event is called. De aim of the event is to be de last person standing, with their hand on de car, and in so doing, winning de car.
While I admire de competitors' determination in wanting to win de car, I can't help feeling they are but just pawns in Subaru's game of chess, in their marketing n promo blitz. I may be wrong here, but I guess all those who are taking part, CAN'T afford to BUY de car. So they wanna WIN it instead.
Come on lah.. If u can't afford to BUY de car, do u think u can afford to OWN it? And by own, I mean as in having to constantly top up petrol, maintenance, COE, road tax, parking, and all other technicalities associated with owning a car. If u can't afford to buy it, do u think that by just winning de car, u can suddenly afford it?
Sure u may have de support of ur family of frens in it, but isn't de time spent putting ur hand on de car be better spent enjoying their company instead? What's better than being with frens n loved ones, right?
I guess those who CAN afford to BUY de car, WOULDN'T be doing such things just a for car. For one thing, in de future, if I do intend to get a car, I'd be getting one that I know I can afford to own, as opposed to being a pawn..
Kak Jun's Wedding
11:33 pm - Saturday, November 08, 2008
Congrats Kak Jun, on ur wedding!
This is what I hate abt asking others to take pics with my K800i. Confident sia de photographer take with one hand! As I guessed, it turned out blurred. How disappointing!!
Kalau Jodoh Tidak Kemana

Andai masih ada masa Kalau jodoh tidak ke mana Pasti suatu hari nanti Kita akan bersua
Walau sampai bila Walau siang berganti senja Walaupun seribu tahun Menunggumu aku rela
A cousin sent me these pics over msn abt 2 days back. He was tidying up his room some 2 weeks ago, when he chanced upon old photo albums. Having scanned de pics, he was actually waiting for me to come online to give it to me. So sweet, right? I'm so touched. Hehe! Ofc, he could just email it to me. I don't see y he can't just do so, but I guess that's another matter altogether. Point is, I have de pics already. :D
I actually wanted him to win. Not for anything, but simply cos he's black. Or to put it in a more politically correct way, cos he's African-American (AA). To be de first President of USA from his race. Simple reason? Hey, life doesn't always have to be so complicate, so chim, right? What's wrong with being simple? :P
I can't predict de future - heck, no one can - but being AA, I guess he'd be championing de AA cause. Which isn't really bad. I guess after so many presidents thus far, de AAs deserve to have someone from among them being president. To be their voice. Or smthg like that lah. That was what one AA lady mentioned when she was on de news just now.
So yeah. I guess like de rest of de world, I'm kinda excited abt Mr Obama winning. To see what changes he'd bring abt. Maybe too, he'd win de next Presidential elections, and maybe serve more than 2 terms, hence surpassing his predecessor? I guess only time will tell.
The story of: Baju kurong kain songket
1:02 am - Wednesday, November 05, 2008
I've been wanting to write abt this immediately after de story of Hishamim, but I've just been too lazy to, so finally, here goes. Heh.
Like Hishamim, some ppl have asked me abt my baju kurong this yr. Y de same baju in all de pics? Well, de reason is that I simply luuuuurved de feeling of wearing kain songket. Like seriously lah! Serious shit! It feels so nice and comfy wearing kain songket. No wonder then that so many ladies like wearing it.
It went like this.. I wasn't planning to buy new baju kurong at all this yr. But as I got de cash at de last minute, I was kinda forced to buy lah. So off I went to Geylang. Past experience has taught me that I shld look ard first, b4 finally deciding and settling on any. So that's exactly what I did.
At one stall out of so many, I saw it. I was really captivated by it. I find it to be very unique indeed. A guy's baju kurong, but in de design of kain songket worn mainly my girls. Fair enough, I thought. Maybe I shld still look ard, and smthg better may come up. But after going to so many other stalls, Tanjong Katong and Joo Chiat included, I couldn't stop thinking of de baju kurong kain songket I saw earlier. So I found myself going back to that particular stall, and $70 poorer later, it was mine. I found out from grandma and an aunt that $70 for it was quite a good price. Was happy with myself hearing that. :D
Wearing it to visit frens and relatives was such a nice experience. De only time I saw another GUY wearing a baju kurong kain songket was ONCE, at Wdlds. His wife, his kid and him wore de same outfit. (Btw, sweet right? Heh.) It was nice being unique. Being de only guy, as far as I know, to wear baju kurong kain songket.
And as for wearing it so many times, it's not like I was sweating buckets or anything. De Syawal that just passed felt cooling for me. As in not hot or humid. So upon reaching home after visiting, I'd hang and air it, and wear it again. And ofc, I DO wash it lah. It's not like I DON'T wash it at all. And as for de jln raya right after Perjumpaan in sch, I actually took de trouble to wash it late at night. All cos I wanted to wear it again, de next day. Sanggup. Yes, I know. Haha!
To all my guy frens, u shld try too. It's really nice, de texture of kain songket. And it beats wearing plain, old, ordinary baju kurong with samping. Really!
So that's how de story is lah. And next yr, I plan to buy baju kurong kain songket, again. Ofc, in different colours lah. Maybe 2 pairs. So plus this yr's, I'd have THREE to rotate ard. Simply looking forward to it!!!
The story of: Hishamim
12:35 am - Sunday, November 02, 2008
Some ppl have been commenting and/or asking me abt one of my posts. To be specific, the one titled Hishamim. Lemme set things str8: I'm not gay. Period. Haha!
So what's de story behind that post/pic, u may ask? Well, de story goes like this... As de pic says, rather loudly I might add, it was taken on 20102008. It was after kompang practice, and de guy in qn and me were watching our frens practicing for Pesta Raya. We somehow got into that pose. He was sitting/squatting somewhat behind me, and I decided to lean in on him. I was quite surprised that he didn't push me away, so I continued leaning in on him. After some time, I suggested to him, 'Eh, take pic ah?', which he agreed to. Another fren helped to snap that pic.
De 'Love Forever Hisham & Shamim 20/10/2008' thingy was an idea of a joke from another fren, who suggested that to me when I showed de pic to him de very next day. De idea was to add those words, and post it on my blog. And de rest, as it is said, is history. So, nothing hanky panky or whatsoever here, aite? :)
U, thx for understanding, and not kicking up a fuss over that post. I appreciate it so much.. ;) Haha! Like real!
