December 31st, 2009

My life's been leaving footsteps and memories, good and bad, behind. Like this blog that I have that left untouched for so long that I, at times, tend to forget. Perhaps, it's FB that makes me not update here anymore. It's easier to connect at FB than jotting down memories in a blog.

So let's rewind back to catch up on what's up.

June: big event. got married :D
- went to Singapore and KL for honeymoon.
oh how i love June 2009 this year that i almost spent a month of holidaying...haha.

Between June and December - the usual stuffs. work related
- a colleague passed away.
- friends getting married.
- couples getting pregnant. etc. hehe.

December: sat for GO exam. Really hoping that we would get a pass at least. haha.
- couldn't sit for FR as we left for vacation.
- holiday in Singapore. we spent 6D5N this time because couldn't get enough of Singapore the last time we went in June. There were many ups and downs while we were there. While there were memorable moments, the bad moments were unfortunately the ones we tend to remember very well too. Keeping them aside, I'll think twice of going there ever again. Hujan emas di negeri orang, lebih baik hujan batu di negeri sendiri.

Typing a short post like this seems like my life been shortened in a span of six months. I guess there are just too many things happening that I could hardly even remember. There are flashes of pictures blurred in between inside this head though. haha.

As of this, its the last day of the year now. 31st December 2009. And truly time flies when you're having a good time. Holidays seems like very short despite the long month of December.

2010 awaits for all of us. Let's pray that it'll be a better year ahead, stay fresh and positive and be healthy. haha.

*i'll be posting up some more ramblings soon*

Ori ke plastik?

It's hard not to be like 'that' and be like 'this' and not to remind you of 'that'.

nahmean ?

It's even hard to be in a state where we say ' Hey, I've seen that before somewhere', so in the end we just have to find something else 'new'. And again, being 'new' is not always NEW.
haha. I'm repeating my self. u get the drift. It's hard to be ORIGINAL. Something original is hard to find. SOmething new is always as a result of 'one-thing-leads-to-another' and thus making it better.

Macam kereta model baru. We'll always relate to what we have seen before and up to a point criticising a new model as a 'copycat' of 'this' model.

went with sally to look for Kia's new model in the market named "Soul'. Damn nice. We also like the Cerato model. Wait till the Koup version comes into the market and I believe it'll be a hit. U must be thinking that we're joking talking abt the Kia right? nope. See for yourself and u'll be amazed on how 'i wish i could own that' feeling u'll get.

Haha.

This post aint about cars.

Its about ori ke tak ori.

and being ori is just not so ori.

hehe.

The Light

Ya Allah rahmati kami dgn Al-Qur'an
Jadikan ia pimpinan
cahaya
petunjuk dan rahmat
Allah ingatkan kami
apa yg terlupa
ajarkanlah
yg tak di ketahui
rezekikan kami membacanya
sepanjang malam
sepanjang siang hari
jadikan ianya hujah kami

Time

have u ever felt like u need more time just to think, just to do and finish something yet there's not much time left?

Time's not with me right now.
I need time to settle things down yet only when time's over we wished that there's more time so that we can finish and do what we want to do.

SIGH.

We take time for granted.
It flies without us realising it.
A year past, an hour flies, a day or two..
It's getting close....
Yet the time's not waiting...

MOVE!!!

The Door

Same door, different sides.
Opening a door opens up to a different opportunities, offering different sights and sound.
Open up the door to a different new world.

I sound like an advert. Haha!

Yes!

Pictures look even better if we can view them on a larger screen.

I just found out that most of the pics i posted look far better on a 17'' monitor (or bigger) than a 13.3" monitor on my laptop. But strange somehow it looks good too on a small screen...like an ipod touch.

I bought myself an extra storage of 1TB to store my growing images. I really hope that would be sufficient for err years.

and oh there's gonna be a new format for SD card users. It's called SDXC which will be able to offer up to terabytes of data! That's a lot of images in a small card you know. But unfortunately current cameras are not compatible with the new format. It'll be out pretty soon this year.

All these make me wanna have new SD card and a bigger larger monitor screen :D

Oh, yesterday marks another important day for me and Sally. The time will come. And when it comes it'll fly, it'll make us sweat and our heart beat faster than ever before. Unbelievably, it's finally dealt with despite years of delay. Haha.

Love, are you READY!? :P

Trapped for 30mins

Took the pic in bandar ard 1045 last night. enjoying the silence of Bandar at night. Watching the brightly lit moon and resisting the cold of night. without realising the time was already 11. So we headed back to our parking at Yayasan. thinking that we could get out for free without paying for the ticket. Skalinya apanah. There's not even a single car in the lot and no parking attendant on duty anymore! in other words, we were trapped, not being able to go out! so we went roaming around by car dari atas we went down trying to find anybody who's working; security personnel was outtasight. So we went  back up, and we went to the front area of Yayasan. One door was still open so we went in and bagi Salam. thought  nada org, baik jua ada! haha. the securities. Luckily they were there. Or else we could've spent the night in Bandar. eh salah, my car could've  left there for the night hehe. 

It's panicky from the beggining knowing that there's no parking attendant on duty. we ended up looking for loopholes for almost half an hour enough to make us take a deep breathe and sweat, a little. Haha. Love, akhirnya nda jua pyh mbayar $1, but we ended up in a bad way haha.

Dengan nama Allah

Tiap huruf BISMILLAH ada JUNNAH (penjaga/khadam) hingga tiap huruf berkata, 'Siapa yang membaca BISMILLAH maka kamilah kekuatannya dan kamilah kehebatannya.'

Hear me cry :'(

I would sing and have the same feeling as this guy is singing if i knew how to play a guitar. my heart's bleeding and weeping for u :'( bintangku

seandainya kau ada di sini dgn ku
mungkinku tak sendiri
bayanganmu yg selalu, menemani ku
hiasi malam sepiku
ku ingin bersama dirimu
ku tak akan pernah
berpaling dari mu
walau kini
kau jauh dariku
kan selalu ku nanti
karna ku sayang kamu

adakah rindu d hatimu
seperti rindu yg ku rasa
sanggupkah kuterus terlena
tanpamu di sisiku
ku kan selalu menantimu

```````````````````````````````

kasih maafkan aku
tiada inginku melukaimu
dan kini kau tinggalkan aku
hanya dalam hatiku
ku ungkap semua penyesalanku
kini ku ingin disisimu
bilaku masih dihatimu
simpan cintaku
kembalilah untukku
kuingin slalu disisimu
maafkanlah aku... kasih :(

. . .

Always said I would know where to find love,
Always thought I'd be ready and strong enough,
But some times I just felt I could give up.
But you came and changed my whole world now,
I'm somewhere I've never been before.
Now I see, what love means.

[Chorus]
It's so unbelievable,
And I don't want to let it go,
Something so beautiful,
Flowing down like a waterfall.
I feel like you've always been,
Forever a part of me.
And it's so unbelievable to finally be in love,
Somewhere I'd never thought I'd be.

In my heart, in my head, it's so clear now,
Hold my hand you've got nothing to fear now,
I was lost and you've rescued me some how-.
I'm alive, I'm in love you complete me,
And I've never been here before.
Now I see, what love means.

[Chorus]

When I think of what I have, and this chance I nearly lost,
I cant help but break down, and cry.
Ohh yeah, break down and cry.

[Chorus]

Now I see, what love means

to love and continuously loving

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak mendengar...
namun senantiasa bergetar....

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak buta..
namun senantiasa melihat dan merasa..

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak menyiksa..
namun senantiasa menguji..

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak memaksa..
namun senantiasa berusaha..

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak cantik..
namun senantiasa menarik..

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak datang dengan kata-kata..
namun senantiasa menghampiri dengan hati..

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak terucap dengan kata..
namun senantiasa hadir dengan sinar mata..

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak hanya berjanji..
namun senantiasa mencoba memenangi..

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia mungkin tidak suci..
namun senantiasa tulus..

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak hadir karena permintaan..
namun hadir karena ketentuan...

jika ia sebuah cinta.....
ia tidak hadir dengan kekayaan dan kebendaan...
namun hadir karena pengorbanan dan kesetiaan..

words are only words

"Kata-kata yang diucapkan sembarangan dapat mewujudkan perselisihan.

Kata-kata yang kejam dapat menghancurkan suatu kehidupan.

Kata-kata yang diucapkan pada tempatnya dapat meredakan ketegangan.

Kata-kata yang penuh cinta dapat menyembuhkan dan memberkati."

instinct, feelings, what much of a choice, then?

ikut hati nanti mati
ikut rasa binasa

hmmm i often wonder if these statements are true
it explains about extreme cases about something.
dat we cant really follow our heart instinct feelings when deciding, acting upon something.
but how true? how accurate? how acceptable?
perhaps these statements relate to the emotional side of things. Which we shouldn't be individually. or else.....

praises; be open to criticisms

Optimism

24 hours

The greatest possession you have is the twenty-four hours directly in front of you. When you make God your most important priority, everything else falls into place.

talk, listen, head, heart, wise man

If you want to make your mother happy, talk to her.
If you want to make your father happy, listen.

To handle yourself, use your head.
To handle others, use your heart. - John C. Maxwell

A wise man may look ridiculous in the company of fools. - Thomas Fuller

Read, judge and quarrel

Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.
Reading is a basic tool in the living of a good life.


Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.
A prudent question is one-half of wisdom.


Every quarrel begins in nothing and ends in a struggle for supremacy.
In quarrelling the truth is always lost.
