yesterday's trip home was very funky..

i went to meet M at city hall, then sekali while waiting for the train, there was an announcement that train services (east bound) will be delayed for 6 minutes. so we decided to be clever and go to Raffles so we can get seats. sekali at raffles pon ramai, and another announcement that there's a further delay of 15 minutes. so we waited and waited. another announcement of further 10 minutes delay. so M said kita pergi Tiong Bahru to beat the working crowd. then kita pon pergi.. and then all trains stopped when we were at Outram or something.. so we decided to take bus.

so kita went out at Outram, decided to take bus no 12 coz it goes straight to my house.. and then kita walked to the bus stop. tunggu punya tunggu, bus pon datang. sekali it went straight past. coz 12 doesn't stop there. bingit kan.

and then we walked further up, to the correct stop. sekali bas single-deck datang, and all the people in chinatown decided to take that bas i tell u. so we waited and waited.. and by then got into a stupid argument abt something (dah tak ingat apa ah, but it resulted in both of us not talking to each other for a very long time til bus sampai.. haha) i was sungguh penat tau. tengok jam dah pukul 7.15 like that... then bas datang, kita naik. and he apologised for his behaviour. sweet eh :) he's nice in that way. i like guys who know when they have to apologise.. hehe..

... then had another stupid argument when i looked at his hp and saw this sms... i asked him what it was.. and he got angry and said I lied and can't be trusted coz i said i was just going to look at his games.

okaaay. i was so upset i tell u.. so frigging upset seh. first time someone ever told me i can't be trusted.. :(

sekali at around the McD kallang there, he said sorry.. and that he said in a moment of anger.. and didn't mean it.

i have to add here that so far, what i know abt him is, other than being really sweet and all that, hehe, i think he's also a very private person. i know he keeps a book journal (so ryan Philippe in Cruel Intentions... hehe) and he said no one has ever read it before (so unlike my online journal.. haha) so I guess I did violate his privacy when I read that sms...?

...*sigh*... but i still felt hurt at his comment though.

from then on i tried to forget he said that... and things went quite normally jugak la. he was being really nice and sweet and all after his apology... but that comment really hurt seh. altho i admit i was in the wrong lah... but still....

then he sent me home. Wanted to send right up to my doorstep. cute kan :) told him tak payah and all... and then he said ok, someday when we go out he'll do that he said. *smiles* so he sent to the lift... then dia balik taking train.

at night we didn't talk though coz he went out to makan with his friends.. and i fell asleep at 1am after reading papers. (OPC cars on the rise, btw.)

anyhoo. tmrw going KL... excited seh!! aisyah was like, "kita go kl 3 times already in half a year! and you 4 times!" and i told my mom we shd just buy a house there to save hotel money.. haha.. this time staying at marriott. posh sikit ah daripada Capitol although not as posh as Ritz but what the heck... aksyen Ritz konon. mcm mampu eh.. haha..

i need to get these at kl...
- Island Shop dress/skirt.
- tops.
- more skirts.
- a black bag
- sandals
- more clothes.
- still more clothes. *laughs*

thinking of withdrawing $200 sing dollars... cukup tak? nampak sah tak eh. whatever it is, cannot spend more than $400.

tuesday im not working.. i'm sending Aisyah to school at 6.30am i think.. then got to go Teban car workshop. not sure if M is still taking leave... he knows the way to that teban place so i asked if he's not working, he can follow... but he already explained this morning how to go, and i have a vague idea lah.. so yups, Insya'Allah i'll be ok driving all the way there alone, *if* i go alone. (teringat Crush said in Finding Nemo.. "let's see what Squirt does flying solo..." in that cool way he speaks.)

i love my waja. *giggles* tadi dapat drive kejap pon jadi. from that kandahar street to work.

ok lah, nothing more to say. i hope the next 4 days will be full of good, insya'Allah... *smiles*

ok I just realised that next entries will be typed by a 21 year old mature adult. hehehe..

u all have fun in s'pore. take care, selamat hari raya aidil adha.

last night went out with M to TM. supposed to meet Mus kan, tapi he got drenched in the rain and malas nak keluar lagi. so i went out with M and walked around tm instead.

... and i bumped into Shaz!! I misssss her so much seh! She still looks a bit the same like last time, but a bit fatter i think, so that makes her look better actually. We talked for a while and all that, and she was like, "who's that? Your boyfriend eh?" really loud. Embarassed seh, haha. Of course kita promise to keep in touch and all.... but we all know we won't, until the next time we bump into each other again. But i miss her a lot and it was reeeeally good to see her again after all these while. :)

then i bought LJS food, and went home... makan for ard 15 minutes, terus call farah ajak dia go Changi Village... and then i fetched her at near afghan there. that was 9.30pm. and then we went to changi. but tak makan in the end, just drank tea and horlicks..

anyhoo. she said this to me.. falling in love, you know that person punya personality already, and you fell for that. Not for what you hope he is, but for what he is la. Although, of course, you still have loads to get to know abt him... but what she was trying to tell me was crushes and liking someone is totally different.

oh well.

smlm balik lambat, then kena marah by parents. sigh. kenapa aku dah nearly 21 years old, tapi still treated like a small kid? *feeling* haha, no lah.. i know it's coz they are scared coz it's my first few times driving around alone.. and I did come home a bit late. But relax ah, bukan nya keluar do something bad ke aper seh... baru duduk kat changi village minum horlicks dgn farah. blah. i guess no matter how old I am, I'll still remain a small kid in their eyes eh? and in their house, live by their rules. but no ah, im ok with that actually... serious :)

today wearing white knee-length top, brown pants and brown tudung.

M looked so cute this morning! i like guys wearing shirts tau... and he wore jeans with this brown long-sleeve shirt which he rolled up the sleeves and his bag and cap and brown shoes. cute seh.. :)

should I buy that J-sh KL punya baju? a bit lecehfying if you ask me lah.. i malas to go and buy, plus there's not enough time to go also. today im feeling frumpy lah, malas nak keluar2 all the way to heeren (of which i thought the pronounciation is Here-rin. Tapi M say Heeee-rehn) and farah can't go tmrw.. so mcm takder time kan nak beli. PLUS nanti kat kl tak tahu how to tell my parents I have to meet them.. not that im so semangat to see them also. see how how first la.

ok i am falling in love. *mad laughter*

hahaha... no lah... like i said, im going to be cool and all that remember? i still am. but nearly failed myself this morning coz M look so cute this morning seh!! he was wearing faded jeans and this white shirt with scraggly blue lines all over it (reeeally nice shirt) and his usual cap and bag and his brown shoes. cute nyer!!! i was so drooling away... haha...

cute tau. :)

anyhoo, smlm we didn't talk for long. i reached home at abt 7.15, ate the nagasari my mom bought, talked2 a bit to my parents and sisters, terus tertidur at abt 7.40... without bathing. just tukar baju terus tido, with contact lenses and all. then M called at 8.15, nak bebual, but i was so sleepy i told him later can talk and hung up. and then woke up at 9.30 and found liza beside me, aisyah on the phone and parents not at home. found out my parents went supermarket.

Then called M, tapi dia never answer his hp, so i called his home. Sekali mak dia angkat dah.... and i was so surprised, mcm tergagap sikit terus... haha... but the mom nicely called him and all that... rupa2nya dia pon tido. then we talked for a while, then i wanted to bathe, so we hung up.... and then I became clever and ter-washed my hair when I actually wanted to wash it this morning. then tengok Anuar Zain on tv, tapi i think he didn't sing "Mungkin" lah... love that song seh. his other song "kembalilah sayang" (or something like that) also nice.. then at 11.20 M called again, and we talked til 1am... then tido lagi.

...and realised i didn't eat dinner ok. im on my way to becoming thin. woohooo!

and M told me kan, that he's going to stop smoking tau. i was very surprised by that... he said usually he smokes some huge amt of cigs a day (imagine the blackness of his liver and all the other organs in the body seh) but yesterday he smoke 4 ajer. *smiles* im not sure why he's doing it (*hmm* ;), but i think it's cool.

...i kind of like the after-smell actually... and i can usually smell it on him when kita jumpa petang... heh...

(ok radio ria punya DJ just said "so funny" in this same way that me and M says it... funky kan... u must listen to him when he says it tau, very cute.)

and then he wanted to meet for lunch, but i said no. i want to finish my Paolo coelho book, dari hari tu belum habis.

im wearing white shirt, denim skirt, light blue/beige tudung... normal brown bag and sandals.
mcm kena eh dgn M punyer outfit of white and denim hari nie... altho i have never been into that pakai-baju-sama sort of thing. *mad laughter* but seriously M look really gorgeous this morning. *smiles* and we managed to get seats... woohoo.. i dont like talking to him standing up, coz he's tall and i look really short in comparison. oh well.

i'll continue later. might be busy today, but see how it goes. M wants to meet after work.

"The First Cut Is The Deepest"
Sheryl Crow


i would have given you all of my heart
but there's someone who's torn it apart
and he's taken just all that i have
but if you want i'll try to love again
baby, i'll try to love again, but i know...

the first cut is the deepest
baby i know
the first cut is the deepest
but when it comes to bein' lucky, he's cursed
when it comes to lovin' me, he's worse...

i still want you by my side
just to help me dry the tears that i've cried
and i'm sure gonna give you a try
if you want i'll try to love again, (try)
baby, i'll try to love again, but i know...

OOHHH,
the first cut is the deepest
baby i know
the first cut is the deepest
but when it comes to bein' lucky, he's cursed
but when it comes to lovin' me, he's worse...

i still want you by my side
just to help me dry the tears that i've cried
but i'm sure gonna give you a try
cuz if you want i'll try to love again
(try to love again, try to love again)
baby, i'll try to love again but i know, OOHHH....

the first cut is the deepest
baby i know
the first cut is the deepest
when it comes to bein' lucky, he's cursed
when it comes to lovin' me, he's worse

OOHHH, the first cut is the deepest
baby i know (baby i know)
the first cut is the deepest
try to love again..

Found this in the book that I'm reading and I just had to put it here coz it's so what I'm thinking.

"Sometimes life is very mean: a person can spend days, weeks, months, years without feeling anything new. Then, when a door opens, a positive avalanche pours in. One moment, you have nothing. The next, you have more than you can cope with. - Paolo Coelho "Eleven Minutes"

i went out with M on saturday, watched Stuck On You at Suntec, quite funny jugak but kena tahan laughter sikit ah. we must always remember Mr Yeo punyer adv.. haha..

and then on the way back, he asked if i want to go out with him again on sunday, to Taka, coz he got a $60 voucher or something ah.

... but i didn't want to appear too easy. *mad laughter* and said no. then yesterday one whole day dia tak keluar, mcm kesian kan, terus i feel bad. but not too much coz i had fun driving the cousins around... hehe...

and then at night we talked on the phone for abt 3 hrs. my parents went to the airport to send cik Jaafar's wife pergi Haji... and sekali while talking to M on the phone at abt 10pm plus, sekali got this guy knocking my front door, carrying a bag but wearing berms. terus me and aisyah freak out, lock pintu atas bawah semua and switched off the lights. and sms my mom tell her to call me when she's outside pasal i lock the door. haha.. then M was nice, layan me til my parents got home which was abt 1 am. lambat seh.. i was falling asleep but he was making stupid jokes which was funny.. *smiles*

and then after the whole convo, he sms me this msg. which is very funky..

i don't know why... but i think i've fallen for you."

right. i was surprised seh.. i never thought at all.

ok that's a lie, hehe.. actually i sort of guessed before that coz he kept asking me all these questions and hinted a lot and all that, but I didn't really think it you know?

neways. this morning we met up to go work together. he's fun to talk to tau, he's so crazily funny and comes up with all these stupid things that he says... and looks so cute this morning with his payung and jeans and all *smiles*

... and today he's waiting for me after work... *smiles again*... so i told him i finish late today, but he wants to wait, so let him wait lah. but i just got my kapal documents for today, and it doesn't seem like a lot. so hopefully i can finish early...

farah's online now so boleh chat dgn dia. sungguh miss talking to her.

p/s: suddenly teringat something M said on saturday. i asked him if hari raya nanti tak balik kampung? and he said "tak ah." so i said, "u ada kampung?" and he said "ada lah. kat China." hahaha.. pasal he's so fair he looks like a chinese guy, but thank God he got malay features, nice big eyes and all. cuteness.

woke up a bit late this morning and had to hurry my life away coz i got to meet the pri sch friend i mentioned in the last post, M.

... yups funky eh, he sms me yesterday when i finish work, ask how i am and everything.. and then after panjang cerita, he ask me out for a movie. i said i cant la (not that i can't, but im not really sure if i want to go out with a guy.. on a date?) and then he say kita shall go work next morning together. ok ah.

so we met this morning... and im glad to say, it was really nice to see him again :) he's still cute as ever... and so tall... (as compared to me. hahah)

he has a bike. (hmm.. :) i was quite surprised how come ada moto tapi tak naik to work. he said actually tu dulu moto bro-in-law dia and it was paid for by his parents or something like that ah, and he actually dont like taking moto tapi since dah ada, dia kadang2 naik.

oh, and he asked if i takut naik moto, yesterday before we met. coz he said kalau tak, he'll send me to work on moto. *tries to maintain muka slumber* so i said yups im scared. easy excuse out.. haha.. no, dont worry you all, tak naik lah moto tu. *grins*

he's waiting for ns btw and working at m&s as display artist or something la.

(i suddenly am thinking that im writing all this for my benefit so i can remember in the future and also for kak ana so tak payah panjang lebar kat email nanti.. haha)

so ya... it was nice to talk to him again, and i was funkified coz he kept looking at me like i'm some funky specimen and said that i look much nicer in tudung. *amused* funky ke... most people thinks i look better without *shrugs*

Flop Poppy on radio now! Why am i not in the car so i can sing along at the top of my voice into the wind!! aaaaa... kini aku hanya dapat berdoa.. agar bahagia lah kau disampingnya.. selamat tinggal.. ku undurkan diri... oh i sungguh lurrrrve this song!!

then he (M.. not flop poppy. hahaha) asked if i want to go back with him later. so i said ok.. it'll be nice to see him again...

then kan, after the train ride in the morning, he sms me asking if im attached. haha.. and i said tadi lupa nak tanya ke. and he said bukan lupa, cuma malu. cuteness nyer. so i said nopes.

anyhoo.

smlm had an argument with my dad in the car coz i screwed up twice on the roads. one time nak gi changi village, sekali i just came out from the side without giving way to other cars... sekali the other cars had to swerve to avoid me and i nearly cried seh. terkejut giler. and then at the Shell petrol station, my dad ask me to go straight, i went left. and then my dad said he gives up on me and i was hysterically saying you asked me to go straight aper!! and he was like, "straight. bukan kiri. straight!" and i was like, "straight tu mana???" *laughs madly* stupid seh now that im thinking abt it. straight tu mana? pandai kan.

so ya, then at the petrol station, i pass over to my mom. too much driving in a day agaknya. and my dad was still scolding and scolding abt how come i dunno where straight is. heheh, funny lah sekarang fikirkan. but it was my first time in a petrol station ok, mana lah tahu mana nak pergi... with all those ahpeks standing around, buat orang panic ajer.

i bought a book yesterday by Paulo Coelho. One of my favourite authors. His books are realy good, but you have to like that kind of writing. I gave "veronika decides to die" to Tinda dulu and she didn't like it, and aisyah doesn't like it too. but i love that book seh. and i bought "eleven minutes" which is abt this girl who is disillusioned with love at a young age and so decides to be a prostitute so she can have the money to do bigger things in life. and then she falls in love, and has to decide on a few life-changing events or something lah. quite good so far.

just a thought - if i go to town later with M, one year ago exactly was the last time i was in town on a saturday. funky lama eh.

23 minutes to going home.

... wat's up with that seh. i saw him in the train the other day, we were sitting opposite each other and he caught my eye and he didn't even smile. abeh tak pasal2 ask for my number?

*puzzled*

ok so i have the car now. i expect to feel different, like some proud owner or something, but i feel the same ajer. Don't get me wrong, I am a proud owner (not proud as in riak proud but proud as in pride in myself. u know?) but its just that I feel almost the same, i just know I have a car at the carpark downstairs. and sometimes, me being the paranoid person that I am, then i start worrying about the finances. i have to pay on the 17th of each month. my pay for this month, I already gave my mom some, and I guess I'll set aside some for hp bill. and then additional $500 for the UOB card (which btw, is all for the car. Suddenly I'm very efficient with my finances. hehe) All my bonus money is going into UOB card also. which finally leaves me with abt $250. which hopefuly will be enough til end of next month. Which also means I can't even think of going to the Mariah carey concert at KL coz i won't have enough money.

Anyhooo... I'm thinking of things to do with the car. (One of them is to sing Flop Poppy's "Jika Kau Bercinta Lagi" with heart and soul into the wind while driving.. heheh) Another thing to do is to buy that sticky mat or whatever tu, to put your hp on the dashboard while driving. And i need to buy those floor mats also coz proton gave us a cloth + rubber floor mat which will get dirty very easily kan. I need to buy those floor mats which I saw at Shell yesterday, but very expensive at Shell, so shall buy at Auto Bacs. Oh, btw, I got a Shell Escape card (those rewards points card). Coz my dad has an Esso card so we decided to take Shell.. hehe..

and yesterday mr.sng said we can only isi minyak Super Unleaded 98. whatever that is lah.

hari tu went to JB, sekali saw a Nemo tissue box! and you know how i love that story... haha... so we bought that tissue box. So cute tau.. orang colour. and liza bought a Kim Possible cushion thing coz she say nanti nak tidur dalam kereta pergi KL. hehee.. so cute.

oh ya, yesterday Liza kat sekolah, sekali about 5 plus the teacher called, said Liza got bad stomachache, and she wants to go back. Masa first pergi sekolah, she dah...erm... buang air besar kat sekolah... then she cry and cry, sekali her teacher came to bring her to the hall. then dah quite ok, sekali petang sakit lagi. so we went to the school, and you know that girl so pandai, the first thing she ask my mother was, "mana kereta mama?" sekali the teacher tanya "kenapa Nurhaliza? Masih sakit?" hehe.. I think she knew we collected the car yesterday.

there's this loud Italian opera song on ria now. funky.

can't wait for the CNY holidays. i know i'll be working, but...entah lah kenapa, mcm best gitu ada kereta kan.

Artist : Flop Poppy
Song : Jika Kau Bercinta Lagi

(Dipopularkan oleh Allycats)

Jika Kau bercinta lagi
cintalah sepenuhnya aaa aaa aaa
jika kau bercinta lagi
jagalah kau hatinya aaa aaa aaa

engkau yang memilihnya
tanpa memikirkan tentang diriku
kini ku hanya dapat berdoa
agar berbahagia kau disampingnya

aaa aaa aaa

Jika Kau bercinta lagi
cintalah sepenuhnya aaa aaa aaa
jika kau bercinta lagi
jagalah kau hatinya aaa aaa aaa

aku tak dapat menghalang
engkau punya kemahuan sendiri
biarku hidup hanya mengenang
peristiwa yang tak dapat ku lupa

aaa aaa aaa

kini aku hanya dapat berdoa
agar berbahagia kau disampingnya
selamat tinggal
aku mengundurkan diri



feeling eh lagu. almost as bad as "ini permintaan i lah.. i harap you dapat tunaikan." *laughs* you haven't heard the rest ok. haha. i hate hate hate jiwangness from a person I don't know. and I don't like guys becoming chummy with me when I don't know them. esp when they are kental 19 year olds who is looking for someone to show off the fact that they got moto and car licence. buat spoil mood ajer pagi2 buta dah call orang.

Aisyah didn't go school today. Last night before sleeping she vomitted and all that, and she been having bad flu. I went to NTUC Pharmacy yesterday, bought panadol 150 pills ok. Sekali my mom say what if she overdose. hahaha.. and febs too, the flu pill u know? my cure for flu is always one feb pill and one panadol, then sleep. Insya'Allah baik :) I feel sick too, but not as bad as Aisyah's. I got flu since the other day but now its quite ok. Mostly blocked nose. I am sleepy. Bored. Missing my Waja. *giggles*

Sunday, January 18, 2004

im still on scrabble, altho today is sunday. tmrw not working.

i got flu :( nasib baik besok tak kerja, coz i hate working when I have a runny nose.

Some guy called Wan been calling me. Ok actually he called me baru tadi, apparently we exchanged numbers when I first moved here (which is about 4 years back - and i dont remember him at all seh) when he just got back from work at around 6pm. so i said, ok lah, but im busy now, i'll call you later, when actually im just reading papers, haha. and he kept smsing non stop and calling every 1/2 hour.. and my mom, being the funky mom that she is, said i should ask him out to see if he's cute. and she said she'll help me, as in, she'll go first to see if he's cute. if he is, then she will call me so I don't need to go up to him. hahaha.. my mom's cool.

so ya, he sms me asking me to call him. "I'll be waiting forward to your call." Please eh, i cannot stand people with bad english ok. had to resist smsing him back "its looking forward. not waiting forward. you can't wait backwards." but of course i didn't lah. nice person that i am.

.. aiyah. i don't want to spend tonight, a night where I am bursting with excitement, talking to someone who I have to make small-ish talk with. Plus he sounds like a typical mat melayu who is still young. *cringes again* you know how 19 year old mats sound? or worst, sekali he's a mat tapered. bleurgh.

anyway, tonight im bursting with excitement coz tmrw is the day i'm going to collect my car. *woohooo!!* and we got to buy the carpark thing after that coz mr.sng the car salesman didn't fax us the log card or whatever tu lah. leceh. went to geylang joochiat just now to buy that thing u hang at the mirror, u know? i bought this really small rectangular cube (i know a cube is square, but what is a rectangular thing called???)

ok the guy im playing against at scrabble online, made a 7 letter word, paroles. he put S at my 'burn'. damns. he's been making all these weird words... DZO.. NA.. ITA.. Apa ini? i'm losing lah. his score is 343 and mine is 209 seh.

so anyways i bought this rectangular cube, transparent, with a pic of Kaa'bah inside. it's actually a keychain, and then i went to the shop next door and bought nice string which looks like a chain. and went home to 'repair' it. to change the look of it. know what i mean? my english is failing me man.

ok the guy at scrabble won. 493 to my 216. pathetic me. now im on to another guy. who sweetly wished me good luck before starting the game.. heh..

so... what else to tell here. i went JB yesterday, bought 3 mango cake and a caramel cream frap.. which i usually can't finish alone, but yesterday i did, and im proud of myself. Then we went to Perling and ate mee goreng, which wasn't that nice, but stil habis jugak. and then to petrol station Esso, bought Ayamas 1/2 ekor, Pepper. sedap you.

asked farah if she wants to go Mariah carey concert at KL on 22 feb.. we take mid range tix and cheapo hotel stay one night. anyone up for it??? I want to go lah. Last time she was supposed to hold a concert here at the Padang kan, and i said to my mom, kita shall sit at the outskirts of Padang listening to the music ajer. sekali it's cancelled kan. and this time round, she's not coming to singapore. aper seh. so ya lah, i want to go to the concert seh.. i think it'll be good. (and i want to buy Jay.Z cd.) Funky tak minah tudung dengar Jay.Z? Not that I am a hip-hop sort of person ok, i just like JayZ since secondary school days... (and my mom tadi tak pasal2 ask me again if I called Sh--dy already.)

ok wait this Wan called la. i'll continue blog later.

____

ok update on the Wan front. He called and i answered, coz i don't deal well with persistence. And of course, like a typical mat 19 year old, he said we should meet up like first thing in the convo, like, after saying hello. and made stupid remarks like, "kalau i sound u stead malam nie, u nak?" please eh. im not desperate. NOT being the key word. ish. kental la.

and then he said he'll fetch me from work one day. and i said, "ok. naik apa? kereta? moto? lorry?" in voice dripping with sarcasm. but no, he didn't get it. he said "of course, u pilih. i drive, i got moto also."

Riiiight.

and then he proceeded on saying the car is his dad's, and moto he shares with his bro. and he drives a lorry for his work place. (he's schooling at TP, some design course, and part time work for HP, which requires him to drive a lorry.) He's going to be 20 in 2 days time anyway. One year younger than me. Blah. I know I always say age isn't a factor for me, but not when the guy is a year younger. Please eh.

i had the weirdest dream. Anyone watched Anak Metropolitan on 14/1? The last part when Suzairhe tried to pull away the young kid from the fights? Ok i dreamt I was in the role of Suzairhe but I had to pull away 2 small girls, probably about my sis liza's age. That's 7 years old. Then we all sat in a van with a driver at the front and saw falee and iwan hopping away from the scene. I don't understand the dream at all seh...

And watched Neraca Perkahwinan yesterday.... and I got really upset at the scenarios they acted out. At the last part I actually cried. I know, very emotional eh, haha. Seriously I was just so horrified at the husband's behaviour.. and then the tears started coming out when the son tried to stop the dad from hitting the mom... and more at the part when the husband talked to the Ustaz... luckily my parents were out and Aisyah was on the pc.

... Is it true that guys will change once they get married? if it's true, then that's horrible.. now we know why there's so many divorces. I thought the first part when the wife read the do'a out loud was kind of stupid. I mean, read it silently lah. Allah swt hears, esp if it's not said out loud wat.

But im appalled at the behaviour of the husbands. How can they happily just hit their wives like that. Yes, my parents ever fought also, but it was never so bad as that. tangan ringan or whatever la, but still u cannot do like that la. that woman is supposed to be the most loved person to you seh.

But wives who are abused, find solace in these words...
"Janganlah kamu bersikap lemah, dan janganlah pula kamu beredih hati, padahal kamulah orang-orang yang paling tinggi darjatnya, kiga kamu orang-orang yang beriman. - Surat At-Taubah ayat 111.

Yesterday I got my payslip... and it's one month salary with one month bonus. Additional bonus will be based on company and individual performance. *cringes* I'm not sure what the superiors think of my performance. Personally speaking, I think my work has been quite ok *hopeful smile for agreement from anyone* but if no one thinks so, I would really want to know why... and how I can improve.. that might sound like bullshit to the normal bystander but seriously I would like to know. As long as they don't raise their voices. I can't stand people who do that.

i'm bored. I been looking at blogskins all these while and decided to use this simple white and pink one without flowers and all that coz I'm feeling non-flowery at the moment. And im still trying to figure out the archives thing... but I decided on no archives at the moment first. So this page will be mighty long. Unless I managed to figure out how to do an archives page... haha...

anyhoo... Had BK Big Fish for lunch. For the 2nd time in a week. I discovered Big Fish about 2 weeks ago coz I didn't want anymore Mushroom Swiss.. so i tried Big Fish and now I'm stuck on it. Sedap sungguh...!

Sleepy seh. I wish I can play scrabble online now. I miss scrabbling. Is there such a word?

Blah... this is just existing man... it's not living, it's just existing.

I'm bored.

there's this part in Mitch Albom's "tuesdays with morrie" that I really like. The professor was telling Mitch that he has to immerse himself in whatever feeling he's going through, and then be done with it and move on. And I remember after reading that, I told myself to practise it. If I'm happy, I'll really be happy. Sad, and I'll cry and wail or whatever... and then move on. Easier said than done though. I never managed to really feel what I'm feeling. It's stupid to say that, I know, but how many of us really feel whatever emotions we feeling at whatever time? (if you think this is an attempt to sound deep.. pls get lost. I'm seriously thinking here ok.)

Aiyah. I shall just relak one korner now lah.

Damns bored lah..

One last thing. I logged onto Friendster just now after a few months of not being inside... and Clarence, my pen-pal from the Philippines who I haven't wrote to for nearly 2 years already, found me there! Sweets eh... wonders of technology. Which is enabling you to read my journal.

my b'day, for which I took leave, but have got no plans of celebrating. I still remember last year when I didn't want to celebrate it, I didn't want any presents, all that money please give to NKF please. *small smile* But Alhamdulillah, this year been good so far. Farah asked how am I celebrating my 21st year on this planet.... and I said I can't afford to celebrate it. I already bought myself a huge gift *grins*... and she was like, "What on earth did u buy for yourself??" and i said "the car".... hahaha...

but seriously, I want to spend my 21st year in a total calm state, without any celebrations and all that. I want to reflect on life, and love.

*laughs*

does that sound like a matured 21 year old? Birthdays have never been a huge deal for me. I never saw the point of having huge parties, inviting the whole world and spending time with each person for a total of 2 minutes. I've never been a social creature, wanting loads of people around me all the time. And more to the point, I have never understood why I should PAY for people to have fun. No thank you. I would rather use the money to spend on MYSELF. Or people who really counts in my life.

I'm listening to class 95 now... and they play quite good songs tau... very shocking, coz I thought they would play really bad oldies. Speaking of oldies, I like Air Supply a lot. And Charles & Eddie "Would I Lie to You" is an ultra favourite!

Would i lie to you baby... would i lie to you... OH YEAH! Don't you know it's true... Girl, there's no one else like you... would I lie to you baby... "

And air supply's making love out of nothing at all.... hahha... that title always makes me laugh...

anyhooo... there's really nothing much to say. I know I'll be bored today without any work to do. So I'm hoping for kak ana to reply my email... hopefully she not busy.

*at the moment, reading "About A Boy" by Nick Hornby.... which I've read since 1999 or something... I need new books. Might go to library @ town during lunch lah....

mr. Sng the car salesman just called me saying that car will be ready for collection on Monday. Woohoo! and I got the SFF plate with 3 numbers just as I wanted! Things are good..

Met my former classmate from tkg this morning in the train.. We never used to be close, she used to sit in front of me dulu in sec 3 and 4.

.. she has changed a lot ah.. So much so that i didn't even recognise her. I was thinking who is this girl who is trying too hard to look cool.... coz she was wearing this loud blue& white tshirt with pointed sport shoes (yes pointy toes sport shoes ok) and huge blue dangly earrings and brown sunglasses ala J.Lo. And brown bag. And then i returned to my book, listening to techno song which a guy in front of me was playing for the whole train. Damns irritating.

Sekali this ex schmate of mine tapped me at the knee (i need to add this, she's short - i thought i was short. she's much shorter.) And then I looked up and feigned happiness at seeing her... and then, like all ex-tkgians all do, we hug. haha..

Then we talked and talked. And i didn't get this part ok. She said she loves clubbing (I swear i didn't ask who or what she loves) and then she said she's real havoc now (oh need to add also she used to be a nerd at school. Not a brainy nerd. Just a normal nerd who wants to be cool and tried many times to hang out with the usual TM people but we always manage to hide from her after school.)

ok to continue the story.... she said she's really havoc now... and she goes clubbing a lot and at clubs, and at the NYE foam party she went to, wearing bikini apparently (info all volunteered by herself) and had loads of guys grinding and groping her. *turns head* Serious she said that. Then she wants to cut down on all that but she can't help it, she just loves clubbing too much!

I just smiled weakly.

tsk tsk... it's not that im judging her... but i didn't ask man. so she need not provide. blah.

other than that, nothing much happened. The guy resting on the MRT door leading to the driver's cabin... had a huge shock this mronign coz the door burst open and he fell in. I and my ex-sch mate laughed like mad, and then the Indian lady next to us joined in too. Hahaha... damns funny. Then he looked shocked... and then got up and sit down at the nearest vacant chair and looked at the door liek someone else fell through. Hahahaha...

ok this is a very long post coz Kak Ana is bored and needs something to read... hahah... shall end soon lah.

so next monday im on leave.... to collect my car. yeah yeah im happys.

today's papers... Cool is a word that withstands the test of time. Coz people started saying cool in the fifties and it's still around now.

Below's post is actually yesterday's post... but I only posted today coz I was terribly busy once I finished typing it up.. and now i cant be bothered to do the dates and all that in blogspot so here it is.

.. Why is the radio playing really weird songs? now its a Japanese song, just now was Hindustan.... and they refuse to play azan. And it's a malay radio station. Weird.

Yesterday, i read in the Sunday Times that some guy somewhere did this study on transcripts of Friends and found out that Monica, Rachel & Phoebe said "so" more often than the 3 guys. And episodes with more "so" said has higher ratings than episodes with no or less "so" said. Some guy has too much time on his hands.

I read the scripts for Pretty Woman and Castaway this morning. Yesterday read Titanic. Titanic is really full of cliches eh. Pretty Woman is sweet. Notting Hill is the sweetest. Something About Mary, funniest I tell you. Find them here

Finished reading 5 people you meet in Heaven. Not as good as Tuesdays with Morrie. Latter book really changed my life i tell u. Although the change is not noticeable. *laughs*

alrights, shall end this entry now. will leave with this forwarded email from mazzy which is really funny. Indians please dont be offended. Look at the humour of bad english instead. Have a laugh. In the words of the people who contributed to the list below.. i am well and i hope you are in the same well. *laughs madly*

im at home right now playing Scrabble Online while typing my new post. It's been an uneventful weekend.. Both days I woke up at 12, had breakfast (or lunch, but it was more breakfast-ish feeling.) Saturday, went out to Bugis Raffles Hospital just to have lunch.. I had black pepper beef steak which was really nice, but of course Bangsar's RM8 one is much nicer. Then we went to Eastpoint Popular bookstore, bought a few stuff for the office (2 pens, Post It notes - altho i still have some in the office - but the colours were so pretty I had to buy it)

... Then went to EMF and borrowed the book that me and aisya been wanting to read since sooo long ago. 5 people you meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom. I read his last book, Tuesdays with Morrie and it really moved me. And this book - 5 people- is really good.

"Every ending is a beginning. You just don't know it at that time."

Cool huh. It says at the back of the book that this book is the story of anyone who takes chances with love and adversity *grins*

Will be going KL next month on my birthday. Actually it's the weekend before my birthday. 31st Jan til 2nd Feb. 3rd Feb taking leave. My birthday afterall.

The car salesman came to my house just now, to sign some documents and told us when we can expect the car. The car is actually ready in the workshop already, but it doesn't have a licence plate yet coz i told him not to register yet coz I'm waiting for the SFF series. If you all have seen some SFF cars on the roads already, it's because those are the ones that went through bidding. Mine doesn't have to. (I dont really understand this part.. hahah)

finally found a cool blogskin that I like a lot. And now can invite people to come visit my blog.. other than that one person who should just stay away from here. You know who you are ok.

Anyways... was telling Kak A*a (*grins at Kak Ana*) the reason why I created this new journal site. I didn't want person mentioned above to read my journal and then wish for bad things to happen. I want 2004 to be good. Better than 2003 at least.

This journal still feels so new, I don't feel comfortable yet writing about all my stuff you know? I regret deleting most of the entries in CF.. coz u know, there were so many stuff that was me in there.. Delete the A-- stuff though. Bad period in my life that should be forgotten. Plus the one year before that too. blah.

But now new year, new start. New journal. *smiles* And i hope things go well this year. Everything, from my parents to work to the new addition in my life (the car lah) to my sisters and my cousins and aunts and uncles and beloved Nenek and my friends too of course. and other stuff in my life, hopefully. Insya'Allah.

Im just praying for the best for me this year la. Seriously, I hope what Allah has in store for me this year is what I want for myself too. U know what I mean? So no point in making new year resolutions, coz Allah swt knows what I want, and I know whatever He planned for me is the best... so we see how things go.

Three Solid Truths

a fwd email in my inbox which is a good lesson from all of us...

Once, a person was verbally abusing Abu Bakr (RA) while the Prophet (SAW) was curiously watching with a smile.

After taking much abuse quietly, Abu Bakr responded to a few of his comments. At this, the Prophet exhibited his disapproval, got up and left. Abu Bakr caught up with the Prophet and wondered, 'O Messenger of Allaah, he was abusing me and you remained sitting. When I responded to him, you disapproved and got up.' The Messenger of Allaah responded, "There was an angel with you responding to him. When you responded to him, Shaytaan took his place.'

He then said, 'O Abu Bakr, there are three solid truths:

If a person is wronged and he forbears it (without seeking revenge) just for the sake of Allaah (SWT), Allaah will honour him and give him the upper hand with His help;

If a person opens a door of giving gifts for cementing relationships with relatives, Allaah will give him abundance; and

If a person opens a door of seeking charity for himself to increase his wealth, Allaah will further reduce his wealth.'

Reported from Abu Hurairah.
