♫ ♫ ♫ THE CURE - FRIDAY I'M IN LOVE! ♫ ♫ ♫

♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

I don't care if Monday's blue

Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too

Thursday I don't care about you

It's Friday, I'm in love

♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

Monday you can fall apart

Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart

Oh, Thursday doesn't even start

It's Friday I'm in love

♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

Saturday, wait

And Sunday always comes too late

But Friday, never hesitate...

♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

I don't care if Mondays black

Tuesday, Wednesday - heart attack

Thursday, never looking back

It's Friday, I'm in love


♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

Monday, you can hold your head

Or Thursday - watch the walls instead

It's Friday, I'm in love

♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

Saturday, wait

And Sunday always comes too late

But Friday, never hesitate...

♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

Dressed up to the eyes

It's a wonderful surprise

To see your shoes and your spirits rise

Throwing out your frown

And just smiling at the sound

And as sleek as a sheik

Spinning round and round

Always take a big bite

It's such a gorgeous sight

To see you eat in the middle of the night

You can never get enough

Enough of this stuff

It's Friday, I'm in love

♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

I don't care if Monday's blue

Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too

Thursday I don't care about you

It's Friday, I'm in love

♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫

Monday you can fall apart

Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart

Thursday doesn't even start

It's Friday I'm in love

Early Birthday with Darling

I think I had forgotten to write an entry on this. :) This was before I went back to Kuching last July.

Click HERE for the pictures.

I LOVE YOU SHARIZAL SARIFF

THANK YOU for all the time, energy & money spent on me. You had been very patient with my impatience. Very calming when i have my moody days.

Hamster's Hamniversary!

We had our 1st year anniversary last September 12th. Lovely!
*hmmmpphh! tired mind - i cant seem to remember what we did, except that we went to watch Piranha - and pigged out on steak at Chili's*

Oh ya, my Hamster is turning 26 in less than 48 hours. ;)

All Apologies!

Hello and *checking the time - 6.14am* good morning everyone!

Sorry I've been MISSING IN ACTION since my last post *21st of August??!*

I was caught up with lots of happenings! Trying not to procrastinate on work gives me little time to do ''free time'' things, like blogging and sorting through my closet or even giving myself some 'me' time e.g. manicure/pedicure.

This semester went smoothly so far. A lil' bit of knocks and bumps here and there, but it's not that bad. Taught me a few lesson. :D

Raya was great! Had few occasions and happenings! And to Re-Cap what I've been up to;

Here are the pictures!

Good bye for now. I'm off to bed!

A.L.W.A.Y.S

I hear a voice say don't be so blind

It's telling me all these things 

That you would probably hide

Am I your one and only desire

Am I the reason you breathe

Or am I the reason you cry

Always, always, always

Always, always, always

I just can't live without you

I love you, I hate you, I can't get around you

I breathe you, I taste you, I can't live without you

I just can't take anymore, this life of solitude

I guess that I'm out the door and now I'm done with you

Done with you, done with you 

Done with you, done with you

Done with you

I feel like you don't want me around

I guess I'll pack all my things, I guess I'll see you around

It's all been bottled up until now

As I walk out your door, all I can hear is the sound of

Always, always, always

Always, always, always

I just can't live without you

I love you, I hate you, I can't get around you

I breathe you, I taste you, I can't live without you

I just can't take anymore, this life of solitude

I guess that I'm out the door and now I'm done with you

I love you, I hate you, I can't live without you

I wrapped my head around your heart

Why would you tear my world apart?

Always, always, always, always

I see, the blood all over your hands

Does it make you feel, more like a man?

Was it all just a part of your plan

The pistol's shaking in my hands and all I hear is the sound

I love you, I hate you, I can't live without you

I breathe you, I taste you, I can't live without you

I just can't take anymore, this life of solitude

I guess that I'm out the door and now I'm done with you

I love you, I hate you, I can't live without you

I love you, I hate you, I can't live without you

I just can't take anymore, this life of solitude

I pick myself off the floor and now I'm done with you

HOLIDAYS!

The whole of July, I was back at my hometown, Kuching (Sarawak) for the holidays. After being MIA from the small town for a year and a half.  As many times I've been back for holidays, it's always as memorable as I discover new things, new places (yes, in my own hometown) and new people. To all my love ones; THANK YOU for making this holiday another great holidays that makes me cried silently in the plane on the way back to West Malaysia...

The End is NEAR!

WORLD CUP 2010 SouthAfrica is already on its quarter finals qualification rounds. There's less than two weeks to go before the crowning of the new World Cup winner will be seen.

Sorry I've been MIA since my last blog. I'm finally having my holidays. Wow, it's been a hectic month for me. I'm finally done with my portfolio which ends everything every semester. So here goes on what  did since last Friday's portfolio submission;

Friday after submission - SLEPT for about 4-5 hour. Still not getting used to sleeping more than 5 hours. That night, after we had our dinner, we went to the FIFA viewing party at Oldtown Cyberjaya, with a bottleof beer, we watched the Portugal vs Brasil match. Very nerve wrecking! two top teams there. in the end, it's not about winning or losing, cos both teams had made it to the round of last 16 (the sudden death round), it's about saving their reputation. It was a draw when it ended.

Saturday - woke up early around 8.30 am, to have dim sum at SS2 PJ for breakfast. After stuffing ourself full to the brim, we went to One Utama. i wanted to buy so many things, but thank goodness my cash was in good hands, or else, I'll be spendng it all by then. :)  In the evening, around 6, my Hamster came to pick me up. We went to have lunch with my housemate before proceeding to his house. I was really exhausted that I slept like a log.

Sunday morning wole up early again, at 9.30a, to get ready to go to Pavillion, we made our move around 11am, to meet my high school besties for lunch. Had a short but fun catching up with each other. my Hamster was so nice to be willing to tag along with us (well, i kinda forced him to) ;p After that we made a quick drive back to Hamster's house to get my CPU to be sent over to Digital Mall, then after our dinner, we went over to Hamster's friend's house to watch the most anticipated match of the week GERMANY VS ENGLAND! i've already anticipated Germany to win by at least 4 goals. They end up winning with a 4-1.

*bubbles*

The past few days had been very hectic... Everyday [wake-up > shower > start-up comp > do work for 12 hours straight] then at the end of all that, I became so tired, not even to talk to my Hamster on the phone for long. We usually chat for about 30 min on the phone every night before he sleeps, or I sleep.

By the time Friday arrives, he came to save me from destroying myself my eyes. We head off to have dinner, then to his house. Then I just slept right through till the next morning. Slept like a log.

Early Saturday morning, at 9am, I was already awake, his mum haven't even went out. I disturbed him sleeping telling him we'll miss the doctor's appointment if he doesn't wake up any sooner. So much for waking up early, when we reach the doctor's office by 11.30am, there's a note there, stuck up the door, ''WE ARE CLOSE FORM 5/6 - 6/6. WILL OPEN ON 7/6''... *sigh*

We then head off to the Curve, had our lunch at TTP (theTeh Tarik Place), then right after done eating, Hamster badly need to answer the call of nature, he went to th poo-farm owned by The Royale Bintang. Hahaha!!!

While waiting for him, I took a brief walk around the street walk, where they have all the stalls selling items ranging from accessories, clothes, shoes, food and decorative items.

hamster & I end up having the chocolate strawberry + grapes + marshmallow fondue and sat at Winter Warmers to have our favorite Iced Mix Fruit Cocktail. Just like our first date. ;)

We walked around the Curve till we cant take the walking anymore. Then we head to Tropicana cos I was looking for a place to have foot reflexology, found one there and went in to get the massage I deserve. :) We then head back to his house and once again, I cant bare to keep my eyes open any longer and head to bed earlier than Hamster... Only to be awoken to a few ''surprises''.

What's best about June this year,

SOUTH AFRICA-WORLD CUP 2010

I usually have been a loyal supporter for the Brazilian national team. But this year, I'm not sure anymore.
 So, this time around, I'm going to be a supporter to the Germans!!! And the Spaniards.. And the Italians.
Hahaha..!! I seriously dont know which country team to support this time. But I better make up my mind quick cos the game is starting really soon.

And Life Goes On.

Few things had happened since the last I blogged. Bothered me till the extend that I had to cried myself to sleep. Can human be any more cruel to each other? I know so that they can. If I've followed my heart, Bad things will unfold. Thank GOD for bestowing me with smart thinking brain.

On the happier note, 

I VERY MUCH FELL IN LOVE WITH MY HAMSTER ALL OVER AGAIN TODAY.

Walking under the sun being baked brought back the memory of when we first 'hang out' only just the two of us. That time there was still no spark of love.

I didnt even care how my hair was. 

Till the point when I was sitting opposite him having some drinks to cool off,thats when I'm itching to get to the toilet, to check on my hair. 

Sitting so near to him, opposite him, where our knees can collide.

Memories.

Lovely. :)

DIMITAR IVANOV BERBATOV

Oh no... Hamster told me yesterday that

Berbatov Bontot Mantap

will be

moving to another team.. :(

HERE'S SOME THINGS BOUT HIM THAT I CAN SHARE WITH YOU.

He's been in Man Utd from 1st of September 2008, playing as striker and wearing the Number 9 shirt.

Dimitar Berbatov is playing for the National team of Bulgaria since 1999.

He has scored 41 goals in 64 matches – even more than the legendary footballer Hristo Stoichkov.

Berbatov was awarded for “Bulgarian Footballer of the Year” 4 times – 2002, 2004, 2005 and 2007.

In his country he is Mitko Berbatov. Some fans also call him “Berbo” and “Berba”.

Can you feel his energy in this photo? I can.

Her Morning Elegance

A song by OREN LAVIE

 

 Here's the music video for his song, HER MORNING ELEGANCE

Her Morning Elegance music video was made of exactly 2096 still photographs, shot and sequenced to create the sense of movement using stop motion technique.
After going from stills to motion, the artists decided to break the motion back to its still form and exhibit the 2096 individual photographs in gallery exhibitions worldwide.
Each still photograph will be printed once as a single edition print and sold through this website.
Once a photograph is sold, the corresponding second in the video will no longer be available.
With the very last frame sold, the video will have been broken apart, back to its original 2096 pieces, spread worldwide and hung in 2096 homes and galleries.

 SHOT #1

SHOT #82

SHOT # 195

SHOT  #667

SHOT #753

SHOT #1013

SHOT #1845

SHOT #1899

SHOT # 2050

To view more of the 2069 shots taken for the making of the music video, simply go to this WEBSITE-LINK

Loved it! The music is somehow depressing, yet soothing. 

And the video, I'll give a 5-star rating to it. 

And 10 thumbs up, if I have 10 thumbs.

MONKEY MAJIK - Monkey Majik - With You

 

Yes, yes, I'm hooked to MONKEY MAJIK!

My Hamster introduced me to this group.

Here's the info I got on the 'group'.

Monkey Majik is a Japanese band composed of two Canadian brothers, Maynard and Blaise Plant, who both perform vocals and guitar, drummer Tax and bassist DICK. 

The band is sometimes referred to as a "hybrid-band", as half of the members are foreigners and the lyrics are sung in both English and Japanese.

Much of the band's music has been cross-promoted via television programs, commercials, and movies. 

The band has been chosen as “Goodwill Ambassadors” for the 80th anniversary of Japanese-Canadian relations.

Monkey Majik is managed by Edward Limited and are signed to Binyl Records, an avex subsidiary. Their live recordings are handled by Under Horse Records, a record company the band was signed on to before their major label debut.

The band, even after mainstream success, is still based in Sendai, located roughly 350 km from Tokyo. This is contrary to the majority of musicians in Japan, who often move to Tokyo after mainstream success.

To know  more 'bout them, visit their website HERE!

HAMSTER THANK YOU FOR INTRODUCING ME TO THEIR 

BOOTY-LICIOUS/ HAND-TAPPING/ FEET-STOMPING SONGS!

~LATELY~

I've been ''really'' busy last week. This week and the weeks ahead too.

Sharing some bits and pieces of what I've been doing lately since my last post. :)

Our group work on Architecture & Culture 301

The group member at work. Before the play began. ;D

Moved to the room downstairs. Such a teeny weeny room. But I managed to plan for maximum space usage.

SPATIAL PLANNING comes handy. :)

My new work station. At the corner of the living room.

OK.

THAT'S IT FOR THIS TIME BEING

Gotta finish this.

And look at HIM!

and last but not least, their poster that I putted up in my room.

Can Life Give Me More?

No.. I'm not being greedy. I'm just wondering about the question people who are not satisfied will question bout their life.

I'm happy the way my life turns out.

What I went through when I was still young, made me a rebel when I was a teenager. When I was  teenager, I rebelled and get to meet many different people I'd never have thought I'll meet. Boys will be always be boys. That's all I can say. And my girls, you girls are the greatest memories of my teenage years. Even up till now. I'd never trade my place with anyone.

To my parents, sorry for all the headaches I had caused over the years. I had learnt so much. SO MUCH. All the scoldings and lectures, you'd have thought I never think about it. The times when I'm not a chatter box, I'm always thinking deep. Deep thoughts always fills up my head. I will never forget the day my father told my class teacher that I am very much different than the rest of my siblings. At first I thought it's a bad thing, that a lump felt stuck at my throat. Months goes by, and the words kept playing in my head. I realised what he meant by that. I am different from the rest of my siblings.

I am the only one who can connect with each of my siblings. All in a different way. I am the best person to talk to my older brother, whom always thought everyone is being unfair towards him. I can chat happily to my older sister, who is uber nice but sensitive at times. I can make stupid ridiculous jokes with my younger brother, who is still a  mama's boy even now he's 18. And I can make up plans with my younger sister to put on some make up and play with the colors and camera and pretend we're models.

I am the one my father trust to be able to take care of myself. The one my father know is emotionally, mentally and physically capable to stand on my own. When I was sent for a stint in the National Service training, the only thing I complained about is they have ugly shiny shoes for girls. And I refused to wear them to the character building classes. When my dad wanted me to take medicine, along with my older sister, I refused. And when he asked what I wanted to do then, I confidently told him, architecture.

I was the only one who have my own plan right after finishing high school. Who knew what field I wanna be involved in. My parents never have long chats with me over the phone the past 4 years I'm here on my own. I do miss home, but I dont show it. I felt like if I ever show my emotions, I'll be deemed as weak at heart.

Am I really not weak at heart? I don't know... I'm just glad I have someone to share my feelings with, without bothering my parents and make them feel worried.

MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE BAND!!!

Another Weekend. Lah.

Busy busy week that I only can go to Hamster's house on Saturday. 

Hamster came to pick me up around 4, we spent some time at my place first before we meet up with Matt & Jane for dinner. 
We had the best crab dishes at Kepong.Slurpsss!!! (will add the pic)

After dinner we head off to Eivisa@TTDI to chill. End up being there till its the bar's closing time. :)

Sunday, Hamster & I woke up early to have Mother's Day breakfast with Hamster's mum. 

We had dim sum! Yummy!!!

We only manage to have less than 4 hours sleep before Hamster have to go meet up with his father.

I slept till about 30 minutes before hamster came back.

Hamster & I went to spend the remaining Sunday hours at Winter Warmers.

Then we quickly head off to Sports Planet, Subang for Hamster's weekly futsal session.

Then it's time for me to get back to Cyberjaya, and face the books & assignments.

xoxo to my Hamster.

SPOT ON!!!

PICTURES OF ME TAKEN BY OTHERS

DO YOU?

A Creed To Live By
-Nancye Sims -

 

Don't undermine your worth by comparing
yourself with others.
It is because we are different that each of us is special.
Don't set your goals by what other people
deem important.

Only you know what is best for you.
Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart.
Cling to them as you would your life, for without them
life is meaningless.

Don't let your life slip through your fingers
by living in the past or for the future.
By living your life one day at a time,
you live all the days of your life.

Don't give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect.
It is this fragile thread that binds us to each other.
Don't be afraid to encounter risks.

It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find.
The quickest way to receive love is to give love.
The fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly;
and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don't dismiss your dreams.

To be without dreams is to be without hope;
to be without hope is to be without purpose.
Don't run through life so fast that you forget
not only where you've been, but also where you're going.
Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored
each step of the way.

MEAT PUPPETS II

SPLIT MYSELF IN TWO
The man layed his hat on the table / Hung his coat up on the wall / Sat down to dinner said as soon as I am able / I’ll say something nice to you all / Then he took a deck from his pocket / Spread em so I saw em all / Then he turned his back to me shuffled em and drew me / The card that said I never would fall / Oh mary lou won’t you tell me what to do / I got a dollar on the corner and a lazer in my shoe / If I don’t get an answer gonna split myself in two / He spun till a ton was glistening / Turned to me and gave me a smile / He said I’m leaving now but I want what you owe me / I’ll be back in a little while / That was the last time I saw him / Hope I never see him again / I know it sounds funny but I owe him some money / And I really don’t want him for a friend 

LOST
Lost on the freeway again / Lookin’ for means to an end / Nobody know which way its gonna bend / Lost on the freeway again / Walkin’ the breezways again / Lookin’ for something my friend / I’ve grown tired of living nixon’s mess / Walkin’ the breezways again/ I know there’ll come a day / When you say that you don’t know me / I know there’ll come a time / When there’s nothing no one owes me any more / Locked in the attic again / Out of the shallow and into the deep end / I’ve got a wound I know will never mend / Locked in the attic again 

PLATEAU
Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau / Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know / Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand / To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands / There’s nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop / And an illustrated book about birds / You see a lot up there but don’t be scared / Who needs action when you got words / When you’re finished with the mop then you can stop and look at what you’ve done / The plateau’s clean, no dirt to be seen and the work it took was fun / Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau / Some said it was in greenland and some in mexico / Some decided it was nowhere except for where they stood / But those were all just guesses, wouldn’t help you if they could

WERE HERE
The night is restless but no dream’s in sight / And the sounds have no beginnings or ends / And that glow is not a light / The walls turn into waterfalls with water made of thoughts that call, / “It’s not O.K. To tip the glass don’t make a noise or shed a tear / You’re not the only one that’s you things have changed, now we are here / We are not the king and queen what we are ties in between / The blankets that you’ve never seen but over you are spread” / “We are here,” the voices sing / “We are here,” the echo thunders / “yes we are,” the doorbell rings / “here we are and here in numbers” / The others came in from the hall and thoughts with voices start to call / “It’s not O.K. To tip the glass or smile too long or shed a tear / You’re not alone the way you thought / Things have changed, now we are here” 

CLIMBING
Climb, climb, I always climb / Out of bed in the morning on a mountain made of sand / And I know this doesn’t rhyme / But the clutter on the table has been getting out of hand / I know that you tried to see me through / But honey I’m still having trouble finding out what’s you / Time, time, it’s so sublime / Well they say it’s non-existant but it’s playing with my mind / And phone calls don’t cost a dime / In the caverns of your feelings where the sun will never shine / Mine, mine, which things are mine? / Well I thought I saw a few before I found out I was blind / And I think I see a sign / And it’s saying where to go and when I get there what i’ll find 

NEW GODS
How much do I owe you? / I’ll pay but I don’t want to / Days of where I came from / In a restaurant in mexico / They told me not to drink the water / And not to touch the food / “All we got is pepsi cola / And we know that it won’t hold / You but remember what we told / You no one else knows what’s in store / Remember that we told you” 

OH, ME
If I had to lose a mile / If I had to touch feelings / I would lose my soul / The way I do / I don’t have to think / I only have to do it / The results are always perfect / And that’s old news / Would you like to hear my voice / Sweetened with emotion / Invented at your birth? / I can’t see the end of me / My whole expanse I cannot see / I formulate infinity / And store it deep inside of me 

LAKE OF FIRE
Where do bad folks go when they die? / They don’t go to heaven where the angels fly / They go down to the lake of fire and fry / Won’t see’ em again till the fourth of July / I knew a lady who lived in duluth / She got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth / But she went to her grave a little too soon / And she flew away howling at the yellow moon / Now the people cry and the people moan / And they look for a dry place to call their home / And try to find some place to rest their bones / While the angels and the devils fight to claim them for their own 

THE WHISTLING SONG
It’s the shadow in the dark / It’s the silver in the park / It’s the broken, faded bird / You’ve learned to call your heart / It’s not a border you can see / Just as plain as you or me / I can’t throw the lock back / And I don’t have the key / It hovers in the living room / Just above the door / It whistles while it hangs there / Feathers dripping from every pore / They show the spectacle of falling / And settle to the floor

ARCHITECTURE & CULTURE 301

I slept at 5am on the morning of  May 6th. And I woke up at 9am. went off to catch the 10am bus, submitted my tutorial paper, and back to waiting for the bus back 30 minutes later. All because of this particular subject.

Culture subject is one of those subject that I used to wonder why is it one of the core paper for this Architecture Science course. After Culture 201 (which comes after Culture 101 & Culture 102, and before Culture 202, 301 & 302.), it's then I realized the reason why it is compulsory. I start to liek it even. I dont feel forced to listen to the lectures. 

Architecture & Culture thought us the many beautiful architecture around the world. The origin of the School of Architecture & Build Environment. The founding father of modern architecture. The meaning behind the WHY this X building/house is like that. There's a reason for every carvings, the reason for every nook & cranny. 

This semester, the big question is 'Malaysian Architecture & its Identity Crisis'. Does Malaysia have it's own architecture identity. Shanghai World Expo 2010 is to be held soon. The theme this year is PAVILLION. It is where And Malaysia submitted this:

And HERE is the link to see the professional review on it.

Wanna se what the other countries have to offer???

All of these are submitted by countries such as Russia, Belgium, Germany & etc.

There's even Pavillions by fellow Asian countries. Pakistan, India, and neighbouring countries, Singapore & Thailand.
