I'm not insane, I'm not insane
slacking at home this weekend. not much to do anyway.. thinking of going to my kak suzy's house tomorrow to drop off her angpau n visit her as well.. not sure whut other things to do, but might wanna buy some pants.. gotta watch my spending as i'll be getting a car soon n with the duit raya i'm giving away, it's a lil out of my usual budget.. not that i'm complaining, i mean i dun really have to but just to get in the festive moment..
going in the 3rd week of fasting already n once again i'll be mentioning that Raya is just around the corner.. can't wait... had Subway just now... very full.. now listening to my A7X as always.. can't get enuff of 'em tho i slowed down my pace a bit n i dun think of them 24/7 hahaha currently digging Synister Gates guitar solos.. they're awesome.. n being the person who always dream if playing the guitar but have sucky hand coordination (n not forgetting the fact that i'm lazy to practice) i really envy him... they had a concert in Singapore back in 2008... hopefully with their new album out, they'll be touring worldwide again soon.. although not so sure about that cuz Rev has passed.. but if they do, i still doubt that they'll stop by Malaysia.. but i guess if they at least make a stop at Singapore again, i'll try to find a way to get there... aaahhhhh the life =D
nothing much to say... hope everyone have a good weekend..

There's always a reason
but yeah, basically that's why i dun wanna add u on my fb... it totally cut out my social life (not that i have any to begin with anyway) so called frens can't really say a thing cuz they have to think twice.. filter2.. no effect anyway... whutever, it's just sumthing that happen that made me wanna say this...
Maybank and its sucky service?
even after today, i still don't think it could be called as something major, but it still made my list for those 'wtf moments'.. so as u noe, i'm trynna get a new car, most probably just in time for raya (well, probably not then)... so i did all the things that i was supposed to, like withdrawing my ASB money for deposit etc.. i even went to get the application form for the loan n distinctively remember that i asked the girl @ the counter whether i was eligable for the staff rate or not.. she even double checked with someone on the phone and said that as long as i'm a confirmed staff, i'm eligable.. so my dad went n book a car n all n i hand in the form on Tuesday, and confirm how many years of loan i wanna take on Wednesday...
then suddenly today, during the morning knowledge sharing, another person called me (the one i gave my form to) and told me that i can't take a loan from them cuz i haven't serve a year yet..seriously, after all the hassle i went thru, this is what i get.. can't they at least have the decency to employ proper ppl to at least now the most basic thing when applying for a loan.. or is there anything else that's more basic then that? well as long as u're alive, yeah u can apply.. why not..
yeah i noe, was just kidding... there might be other things that they would consider more crucial, but still, if they had told me earlier, i would've gone to another bank from the start.. now i definitely won't get my car by Raya..
and to think that the girl asked me to wait till december to apply, fuck u bitch

The War is Over.. But who won?
Malaysia became independent
31st August
Jeff Hardy was born
31st August
Princess Diana passed
31st August
The war on Iraq should be over
Obama announced that the remaining US troops will be withdrawed from Iraq.. so this isn't exactly brand new news.. just read an article on it n it made me think.. what came out of it? whut's the point of it?
50 years from now, we might watch a document on this on History Channel (if we still live then) what speculation will the next generation have on this..
if this was war, then who won?
Now Your Nightmare Comes To Life
Slow Down Baby
read the papers this morning.. depressing as usual.. horrible flood in Pakistan, hijacked bus ended badly in Manilla, jet crash in China, death everywhere in Malaysia... yup, just the norm..

Human Nature
well, this is how we are... no matter what, we will always try to protect those who have similarities with us, regardless how fair it is.. but to me, u should walk the talk.. i'm not saying that it's ok for ppl of other race to insult us (in fact, it shouldn't be about race or religion) but if u are talking about equality, n trying to assure ppl that this country is different cuz we treat each other with respect, then u would have to prove it... take action to those who abuse as how u would with others...

These people do exist
anyway, what caught my attention in todays' The Sun was related to TBH inquest.. let me quote it since the paper is right next to me.. Her findings was, however, challenged by Malaysian Anti-Corruption Comission (MACC) prosecutions head Datuk Abdul Razak Musa who told the coroner's inquest that Teoh could have strangled himself before he fell to his death on July 16 last year. Asked by the counsel for Teoh's family Gobind Singh Deo how the 30 year old political aide could have done so, Abdul Razak gripped his neck in a throttling motion to demonstrate his contention, much to the amusement of those present in court.
and there u have it ppl... this is actually the person who is representing ou MACC.. what kinda person, in their rightful mind, would suggest that sumone could commit suicide by choking themselves with their bare hands?? i mean, that's so absurd.. u could tie urself to a noose.. or maybe wrap a plastic on ur head n tie it up N tie ur hands as well.. u see, no matter how hard u try to kill urself (in that sorta way), there's always that few seconds before u really run out of air, where u try to revive urself.. i once read sumwhere that u could never kill urself by holding ur breathe.. don't believe me? try it.. i have.. den let me noe if u survive =D even if u watch movies where a person hangs himself, after kicking the chair down, his hands will be on the rope around his neck trying to stop choking...
anyway, my point here is that how can we have these type of people representing us.. i mean if i was in MACC, i'd be embarrased.. this is a court trial about someone's death, not a comedy sitcom.. this might be among the entertainment the ppl in court get.. but really, it's so dumb.. he's a lawyer so i doubt he's stupid.. it just goes to show that some people just don't think before they talk, especially when it matters the most....

this post has no point actually... was angry when i wrote it...

Ground Zero Mosque
Right, so it's not exactly built at Ground Zero, but that's what news reports are reporting.. over a couple of months already, this has been a huge issue worldwide.. Should a Mosque be build two blocks away from where the WTC used to be? as a Muslim, off course i'd say go ahead.. besides, it's not actually build on the exact spot.. instead, it's build on a private property.. so they're not really breaking any laws..
others argue that these people needs to be a little bit sensitive towards this situation.. sure, 9/11 has in fact effected a whole lot of ppl.. i could still remember that night when we got a phone from my dad's fren asking him to watch CNN prompto, and so we did..n to our horror (n others too) a plane (make that two) crashed into the WTC.. the building burnt for a few while before collapsing altogether.. it was such a disaster and i remember following the news religously just to noe if there were any survivors found.. no more MTV or Channel V at home.. it was CNN or NBC throughout the way.. got home from school nad i'd ask my mum if there was any update...
done with flashback, moving on.. so maybe there would be a possibility to be a lil wee sensitive but then, just because they claimed that the terrorist were Muslim, do we have to appologise on their behalf? do we have to sacrifice this bit? it's like me saying, ok i won't raise or adopt a kid cuz apparently, girls make babies and just dump them.. unrelated? whutever.. "The problem with stopping this Islamic center is that it implies that the Muslim world is responsible for [the Sept. 11 attacks] when it's al-Qaeda that's responsible," -Keith Ellison.
so... thoughts?

so i'm planning to buy a car (not my precious beetle, or audi tt, or even accord).. just the limited edition myvi (if there's still more left) so dat we have more options.. thanx papa for paying half of it =D so i'm gonna take a 25k loan from maybank n with the staff rate, i hope i could survive.. well, back to the story on hand.. i took the application form yesterday as to really take the first step, cuz i've been delaying it long enough.. then i was about to prepare the paperwork (paperwork la sgt) by making a copy of my ic n license.. so that's when i realise that my license expired.. imagine me being ignorant n just carried on with it.. how embarrased it'll be for me to get my application rejected cuz of dat hahaha so yeah, i guess i'll renew my license tomorrow (with the help from my mum, that is)..n hopefully get to hand in my application by end of this week... yeay!! a new car!! boo!! at my expense!! hahaha not sure when i'll get it tho...

Words By Him
So try and love me while you can
And take the time to understand
As long as I can touch your face
You know I'll never leave this place
###
Now I think I understand
How this world can overcome a man
Like a friend we saw it through
In the end I gave my life for you
Gave you all I had to give
Found a place for me to rest my head
While I may be hard to find
Heard there's peace just on the other side
Left this life to set me free
Took a piece of you inside of me
All this hurt can finally fade
Promise me you'll never feel afraid
I hope it's worth it
What's left behind me
I know you'll find your own way
When I'm not with you
So tell everybody
The ones who walk beside me
I hope you'll find your own way
When I'm not with you tonight

We're On A Roll Here
this must be some kind of record here i'm making right? i can't even count how many post i have here for the past few days... n yes Kin, sometimes ppl do have several post in one day =b whut i wanna have for this post (inspired by Hani) is to post pics of my collegues here i have in Maybank.. as u may noe, i dun have dat much frens (aawww c'mon) n i dun get along easy with others.. my frens in high school, n frens in college n even Marcus Evans all consist of non-Malays.. yes, sometimes a get a long better with them... not racist or anything, but before this, i never seem to fit in the malay clique (or maybe there are other reasons contributing to it) so the frens i make here in Maybank could be considered the 2nd batch of malay frens i make (not dat i care what race they are anyway)...
so here are some pics from our MRM dinner... Enjoy
Glow in the Dark
With Baby Qaseh (Celebrity of the Night)
Doing the poco poco (Work it Baby)
Such a fun night...
It came Unexpectedly
so what i did last night was kinda like one of those moment i used to have.. where it just came out of nowhere n the words started to flow... i think it's up a level where i don't use cliche' words that much... or is it just me? hahaha i was about to write more about A7X, particularly M Shadows but after browsing pics of him to post and making up captions to go with it, i suddenly felt like the urge to write.. n when i did, my imagination seems to wander.. n finally i ended up writing about 6 sets right? all within 5 mins.. so i guess when songwriters say dat they write a song in about an hour, it kinda make sense.. mine is just more lousy dat's y it took a shorter time to finish =b
right, so u may think, no biggie (n if so, scram u!!)n i feel like throughout this post i'm just repeating myself, but really, i just needed it.. i guess when it all feels right, then it's right.. i hope i get back on the horse soon again, but till then, we'll just see.. i might come up with something dark, which i quite enjoy now after hearing these songs..
my lil sis walked into our room once while i was listening to them n asked since when did i listen to these music... i guess i could never really say.. we used to like the same music.. n whutever music @ bands dat i like n introduce to them, n they seem to like it, my love for them seems to grow so-so... but with Christina Aguilera @ Taylor Swift or maybe even Avenged Sevenfold, they don't seem to bother much n i don't seem to care cuz i'll just love them more =b
###
seems like a long one right.. so we might start fasting tomorrow.. managed to have breakfast with my collegues this morning... hope this will be a good month.. can't wait for Raya to come.. the gatherings, the food, the gatherings, and more food.. yeah girl, stop drooling.. gonna take pics pics pics.. gonna give money money money... yikes.. alright i'm bored n my brain is sleeping...

And so it goes on
with a killer smile too.. i could totally do him..
just one glance and u caught my eyes,
i'd never stood a chance but at least i'll try,
to get closer to u, n maybe, just maybe
be that one person for u, who u'll never set free
my hands are sweating as i try to find the words,
for this fairy tale to finally incur,
i walked straight up to u while u were hanging with the boys,
n thought it's now or never, n i'm making a choice
u saw me approach u, u didn't hesitate,
to offer me a smile, one that i could never hate,
we started talking, u told me more about you,
u told me things, that i never thought i'd knew
u were gonna head off, but u gave me ur number,
u didn't manage to get mine, but u'll never call me that i'd figured,
so i just laid back n watch this hell of a guy left,
n curse my lucky numbers for not taking that bet
a minute or so passed n my phone rang,
i wasn't in the mood so i just left it hang,
i got home dat night n listen to my mailbox,
u left a message saying that he had a good talk
"Maybe we could do it again sometime"
oh heck, i would mind,
so i lay down in my bed n started to wonder,
about how my life would be like with Matt Sanders...
u see what inspiration can do to ur life? fuck i miss writing...
The Little Things in Life
Epic
Ringtones
so after learning to cut song (thanx to our dinner performance for MRM), i decided to cut some songs as my new ringtone.. i can't seem to let go of Dear God's intro, so i opt to use the chorus of Afterlife for my sisters and d chorus of A Little Piece of Heaven for Jue n Kin... well, since i dun get dat much call anyway, so i'll jest settle for that for the time being.. yup, continuing the A7X obsession so we'll just see how it go..
on another note, it's kinda funny (not funny ha-ha) dat i keep my phone on silent in the office.. i mean, it's not like i'm in a library or in class anymore right.. i mean, i hear other ppls ringtone all the time to the extent that i can call dat person's n say their phone is ringing if their not around..

My Latest Addiction
Enjoy
So Far Away
I love you
You were ready
The pain is strong enough despite
But I'll see you
When He lets me
Your pain is gone, your hands are untied
So far away
And I needed to know
So far away
And I need you to need you to know

Billionaires' Charity Pledge
so whut i admire about this guy (my dad's reading his book i think), is dat even though he's giving away almost everything, he's still such a humble guy n think that whut he does here, ain't that much.. "Moreover, this pledge does not leave me contributing the most precious asset, which is time..Gifts of this kind often prove far more valuable than money."
n how how so true is dat.. i've always imagine myself being filthy rich n all (well who doesn't right), n always think to myself that, with all that money, i can do good.. i can provide my family a better home, give a few to my relatives n whut not.. but truely, whut i should have been doing, is actually giving whut i currently have n not whut i might.. start small aight.. i mean, by right, if u honestly wanna help out, u should be giving whut u cherish most.. and deep down, i'm sure it's not money dat i cherish most.. it should be my time n energy (which i may not realise)...
so that's why we Muslim have Raya Korban =b yes tibe2 je topic sesat hahaha but bottom line, u can make a change with whutever u have, cuz even if u feel like u have nothing, always noe that all human are equal when it comes to time.. we all have only 24 hours a day..
World Peace =b
