Life is A Big Fat Drama: McD yang Bodoh dan Celcom yang Bangang.

OK, maybe the title it a little bit unfair. It should read 'Receptionist McD yang Kerbau dan Operator Celcom yang Lembu'. Might be a little bit harsh, but yeah, it suits them right.

I've received a message last week from Celcom, addressing that I should go to Celcom Center to verify my registration. I asked my other friends, no one has the same problem as I do. So, I ignored it for quite a while. I am busy on weekdays, and on weekends, Celcom Centers are closed (probably).

So, I checked on Celcom's site for nearby Celcom Centers, and I chose to go to KL Sentral, as it stated there that they open from Mon-Sun from 10am-9pm.

I went there at 10-ish and arrived quite early. As I went into the shop, they said that they're just an authorised dealer, and can't solve my problem. So, I thanked them and walked away. Then, I called Celcom service asking about this. You see, when I'm confused, I ask a lot of questions to clear that up, so we're in the same page.

I asked questions like:

'My other friends don't have the same problem though they're also using UOX. Why?'
She replied: 'Oh, maybe they don't get the message. They should've.' 
'If I don't settle this today, can I get it done after the due date?'
Answer: 'You see, sir. We've set the period for the registration. If you don't get it done, then we assume that you have no interest to proceed with our package.'
'I already did the registration in IIUM, when your team held a promotion. Why should I do it again?'
Answer: Honestly, I dun remember what she said for this, but I remember she was rising her tone.

Come on, I'm the customer here, and I'm not blaming her. I was just asking for answers, something to clear up the haze. Tetiba nak marah aku plak! Mahu x naek hangin!! Orang ckp baek2, kau marah2 plak. Gelabah tetek la kau minah. Aku bubuh tang tu jugak. Apa aku cakap pun da x igt... *Tips marah: Jangan bagi dia berpeluang utk bersuara. Bubuh je cukup2. Pastu da xde isi nak ckp, matikan hp.

Then, I went to the book fair, read a little bit. X boleh beli, ngah sengkek. Tunggu kul 12pm, then headed to McD.

At the McD, the receptionist is an Indian woman. I ordered 3 BigMac McValue Lunch, 2 large and 1Medium. I got my things, and ready to leave, when I asked her for another cheesy flavored powder (Idk what it is called). She hardly even looked at me, but I insisted to stay and asked again and again. A woman behind me, a kind woman she is, a Caucasian, sounded her, 'You know, you should learn some manners dealing with the customers. You're really rude!'. She got her orders, I don't get mine, but I was satisfied.

I had been there, on the other side of the counter, and I'm telling you, it wasn't an easy task, but there's no excuse for you to unleash your fury to the customers. Customers have rights, give them. My word of advice when dealing with rude people like this, SAY IT TO THEIR FACE. Serve them right.

Forever Alone? That's Awesome!!



What you call pathetic, I call inspirational. You might remember, in your high school, girls always go anywhere together in'flocks', even to toilet, and when you enrolled in University you would see guys in their gang, girls in their cliques (different ones), go anywhere practically together, eat together, do things together. Well, I'm not that type.

For me, Forever Alone Guy (that's what you call him, right?) is highly independent, and that's what makes a guy, a guy. Won't be much of a guy if you're dependent, would it? 

Don't misunderstand me as an anti-social, I'm very much socially healthy, I might say. It's just I don't like doing all the things with the same people, over and over again. Kinda boring. That's why I participated in a many activities, formal or informal, to continuosly making new friends. 

It freaks me out when I'm getting close to a girl/boy and they started asking my whereabouts, what am I doing and when to get back home. If I'm to answer those, I'll tell it to my mom, or in other case, get a girlfriend. But, relationship can wait for now. In fact, I'll freak out when get asked those questions.

The idea of having a bestfriend is fun, and very much convenient, I'd say? You have someone to take care of you, and accompany you everywhere you go. But it does not seems realistic to me. Sure, it's fun, but I'd like to keep something mystery of me, and you can't do that when you have a friend by your side 24/7, can you?

But, I'm the best in long-distant relationship. I can keep the mysterious thing going as well as having someone  you know there when to turn to. 

This is maybe the valid(est) reason why I chose to be with roommates who are not my classmates. =)

Debaran Result.

Salam...

Sungguh ni nak bercerita, sampai blog yg dah x terusik lama pun digodam... Malam ni pukul 12 seantero students UIA akan dpt tgk result masing. Masa ni la semayang semua nak cukup, cakap nak baik2, minta maaf dgn org2 yg even x pernah b'ckap (ya, saya dpt chat dr orang yg x pernah bercakap ngan saya pun, minx maaf...  That makes me wonder, apa salah dia pada saya? haha) Okeh abaikan hipokrit tu. Aku xbiasa ckap saya awak ni. Kecuali la bakal ayah mentua ade kat depan.. Itu lain cerita. hehe..

Masa2 cam ni gak ah tidur x kenyang, mandi x selera, makan x basah. Semuanya serba x kena. Bagi aku, dah lama dah. Sejak seminggu lepas rasa x sedap badan....



Memangla ni bukan exam first aku, tapi berdebar jugak., haha.. WHY? sebab ni la first time aku rasa betul2 study masa exam... Sebelum ni x sgt.. Even SPM pun aku bantai haram je... Xde kesedaran.. haha.. Tapi, exam kali ni memang aku berharap sangat. Banyak kot aku study, and mostly aku rasa boleh jawab. Betul ke salah tu belakang kira. Biar lecturer plak wat post sal ni. Except, Morphology (the study of words structure). Morphology memang aku jawab sambil mulut ternganga, mata terbuntang, pandang kiri-kanan.. haha..

Apa2 pun, whatever happens at 12 am ni, goodluck. And I'm praying for those who read this, hopefully we'll get a flying colors result. And, if Afiq Fisal ever read this, I want you to know that I'm praying for you too. Forget the past, bukak buku baru ea. Let us lead our own ways.

Goodluck people. Thanks for reading. =)

Rumah Manis Rumah

Salam peeps,

Sekarang ni dah 5 hari dah aku duk umah. Seyes bosan. Adik2 aku gi sekolah. Yang ada pun adik aku yang baru pas SPM. Itu pun bangun kul 12, tido balik kul 3. Xda life punya orang. Lebih kurang sama jah ngan aku. Duk rumah x kuar rumah. haha.. Anak dara jantan en?

Tapi duk rumah ni pun da heaven aku rasa. Makan xyah bayar, xyah guna wifi UIA yang siput, gi toilet pun xyah bayar tiga posen. Semalam aku maen badminton ngan adik aku dari asar sampai maghrib. Dah lama da x buat mende tuh. Petang2 plak duk depan tangga tengok orang lalu lalang. Kalau untung, ade r bakal bini aku lalu sambil jeling-jeling manja. Nak no aku cakap je la.. aku x mkan orang. Kalau x untung, hanya dpt tgk makcik2 berkemban je la. Confirm masuk rumah terus.

Rumah aku xde la mewah sangat. Standard rumah kampung jaaahh.. Ni rumah ke 3 x silap. Mula2 dulu aku duk Kg.Baru Jara, sebelah umah tok, pastu pindah Jengka 10 bila mak dapat kerja sana. Pastu bunyi2 To'ki nak jual rumah kat B.Pusat Jengka nie. To'ki nanges masa tu mak ckp, syg nak jual. Mak pun pujuk la ayah beli rumah ni. Ayah pun beli, modified sket, pastu duduk. Hahaha.. senang je citer. dah itu je yang aku ingat weh.. Tapi ingat agie masa mula duk rumah ni, seram weh. 1st night aku x leyh tdo. Katil kongsi ngan abang masa tu, tapi tetap dengar2 bunyi mengarut2. haha.. Takuuutt.. Nak gi toilet pun tunggu sampai subuh.

Jiran2 sini semua x berubah lagi, kiri depan belakang, except Mak Cik Nora da pindah 2 tahun lepas. Itupun pindah belakang rumah aku jaaahh..

Dulu masa kecik2 aku rajin ah tegur orang, rapat ni ngan semua jiran. Pas sekolah menengah, dapat sekolah Kuantan, jarang balik. Balik pun sebulan sekali, sabtu ahad je. Dah duk rumah plak, tidur la kejenye. Bangun2 da x kenal orang... Standard ah Sleeping Beauty en. Sekarang ni lau aku kuar rumah, jiran2 aku pandang laen je. Makin ensem kot? Ntahla... haha..


Dah la tuh.. Malas nak tulih.. Nak bersiap semayang Jumaat. 
Kbye. Salam

Lembu Yang Lembu.

Salam...

Tadi da post dah, ni nak post agie... Ari ni aku gaduh agie ngan Lembu. Sape Lembu? Ni ha...

Lembu yang lembu

Hah nampak je comel, innocent, padahal perangai hudusss betul. Serius menyampah ngan dia ni. Baru stay ngan aku for several days, da cukup buat aku rasa serik ngan guinea pig. Yang 20 ekor kat rumah tu xde pulak camni.. GRRR...

Alkisahnya, Lembu ni nama asalnya Brownies, tuan dia ada jumpa aku kat HS cafe masa aku ngan Kambing.. Ohh sweet sweet Kambing~~ N several months later, dia contact aku, tanya nak  x guinea pigs, dia nak bagi free. Aku pun mmg xnak, tp t'pikir Faat nak agie sekor, ak pun terima je la..

Sampai2 je ngan aku, mula2 baek la.. lama2 wat hal. Lembu ni memang cerdik rasanya. Sebab?

1) Dia tahu time bila aku bangun tidur, dia menjerit2 mintak makanan. Aku serong skit je badan, dia dah bunyi. X perlu alarm clock pun dia da kejut aku subuh. Dia mintak makanan camnie:

And dia akan satay camni berbunyi2 selagi aku x bagi makan.

2) Dia x makan pellet. Murah sangat katanye. Selera manusia. Hari2 aku kena bagi dia makan timun. Sayur lain xnak. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, abes RM3 jugak la aku hari2. Sampai makcik jaga kaunter tu pun da kenal aku.

3) Dia kenal suara aku!! Semalam, ak jalan balik, and dia aku punish duk luar, sbb bising sangat. Suara aku dari ground floor menyanyi2 keriangan, terus dia berbunyi!! AARRGGHHH. spoilt!!

4) Dia kenal Kuyen. Kuyen adalah roomate aku yg paling sayang Lembu ni. Nama Lembu tu pun dia bagi. Kadang2 bila aku bengang ngan Lembu, Kuyen ah yang bg makan. N sebab tu la bila nampak Kuyen dia menjerit2 keriangan konon r Kuyen nak bagi dia makan. PPPFFTTT.

5) Dia kenal bunyi plastic n bunyi pintu. Bunyi plastik tu memang semua GP pun aku rasa kenal. Tapi, Lembu ni, everytime orang bukak pintu, dia menjerit2... Dia da set yang bila aku buka pintu je, mesti bwk makann untuk dia. Tu pasal dia menjerit cam GP gila. Memang gila pun.

6) Dia tau2 je bila aku beli timun. Biasanya bila beli timun, aku beli banyak. N then aku bagi kat dia byk2, n klau dia nmpak aku pegang lebihan, menjerit2 ah dia minx agie, even baru lepas makan.


Despite semua description yang konon comel kat atas, aku tetap benci dia, sbb bunyi2 yang bnyk, n demand yang susah, bertambah2 agie beliau menerukkan ekonomi aku sekarang. FAAAAAAAAATT,, AMEK CEPAT LEMBU YOU NI SEBELUM I SEMBELIH!

One More Paper!!!

Salam readers,

Hari ni da abes subject killer: Science of Hadith. Bajet masuk yang susah2, yg complicated, last2 kuar yang surface je. Alhamdulillah.. And it was funny how every single one of us tried to compress the 4-months-course into one night. Biasa la kan, student. Kami memang hebat. Ngahahaha. Science of Hadith? Yup.. Budak English pun amek subjek agama tau. Jangan ingat kami jahil sangat.. Hahaha.. pasni harap la xde agie mulut2 cakap budak2 BENL ni bajet omputis, Ashton Kutcher wannabe -WALAUPUN nickname aku aaron. -.-"-

Esok ada 1 paper agie, DRAMA. Yang ni aku pening nak study apa. Seyes xtau -WALAUPUN dah ade skop- Pelik2 course aku ni? Memang pun. Tapi bukan senang. Camne korang struggle nak memorize formula, eksperimen, camtu jugak la kami struggle nak memorize plots, theories and history, especially French Neoclassicism tu. Apa tu? Ntah. Aku pun x study agie..

Sejujurnya, aku x sabar nak tunggu abes sem ni. Sem ni la yang paling mencabar setakat ni. Sem ni bnyak aku buat kawan, hilang kawan, kenal orang, kenal dunia. Macam selama ni aku duk terperap dalam pickle jar pun ade gak. Mujur la sem ni aku rapat ngan orang yang memahami. Ada r jugak tempat aku nk bercerita. So far, memang I'm good in making friends, I love meeting new people and make connection, but I'm suck in keeping them. I'm sorry for those who feels I'm not working hard enough, I don't care enough, I'm not good enough or I'm not appreciating you enough, from the bottom of my cold, sticky heart, I'm sorry.

Enough rantings, kena study sket agie. Doakan aku exam esok kul 9 pagi. And I miss you, yes, kau yang x pandai makan kuaci. Please gimme a call. Enjoy your holiday. Bye2.. Salam..

Why I Resented Twilight The Series

Dear blog,

I'm sure many of the readers here adores Twilight, well sorry, but not me. I resented Twilight the Series, in fact, Stephanie Meyer has become my least favorite writer. And bless Kristen Stewart, it's not her fault.


I began reading Twilight the Series when I was in IIUM Nilai, doing my foundation, when a friend gave it to me. I spent the next few weeks reading the whole series, and somehow, despite the continuation of urge to keep reading, it doesn't fascinate me, instead, I read just to hate even more.

For me, Stephanie Meyer's works are just the mere fantasy of a typical girl, and that what she's selling. Of course, more girls can relate to that, and that's what makes it countertop sells. Why am I saying this?


1) Edward Cullen is a perfect character of a charming prince.


For me, Edward Cullen here is the most unrealistic of them all. Come on girls, describe your dream guy:

-Handsome: Here's the catch right? I mean, which love novel doesn't portray a handsome hero, and Stephanie Meyer made it clear in all her series. Edward is hot guy at the school who admired by every girl alive, walking through the cafe with all eyes towards him, envied by the boys.

P/S: J.K Rowling's series never once describe Harry as a handsome boy, except from Ginny's perspective.

-Strong, and protective. Edward is very strong as a vampire, in fact, among the strongest in his coven. It's natural sense that a girl always long for a protection from a boy she loves.

-Passionate. From what has been described, Edward is the one who's more passionate. In your love, girl, don't you want a guy romantically staring at you all night, protecting you from any possible harm, threatening to commit suicide after you're break up, want to be with you all second, all day, cuddling on bed, admitting his love to you is worth more than his life?

-Well built: Edward is very fit and sexy, admit that.

-Very rich. Remember how Edward bought a pre-wedding gift of a tank-like Mercedes to Bella before a wedding? And how they spend their honeymoon in the island Esme bought for them? Man, it must be a fortune to buy an island, and a Mercedes, and what's Carlisle working as? A prime minister? Multidollar businessman? No. A doctor.

-Very 'experienced'. Edward is a 109 years-old 'boy' who trapped in 17 years-old body.

-Psychic. Remember when a girl always say to her spouse, 'I wish you know what I want, what I feel right now.' Well, Meyer has it all under her thumb there. Edward, though cannot read Bella's mind, he understands what a girl desires throughout 109 years old of experiences from the girls around him, and give it all to Bella.

-Everlasting love. As a vampire, Edward promised the happily ever after that dreamed by all girls. He cannot die from aging, and he's very strong, unlike other vampires he can stay under sun, no sunburn or whatever, and the only way he could be killed is the lethal battle with a werewolf or, a stick through his heart. Minus all these, you can live with him for as long as you want.

-And, despite all the characteristics of a hot guy above, Edward is still single. In 109 years, he's only has fallen in love once, and that's with the loser driving a red, crappy truck to the school namely Bella. Come on, 109 years? A hot guy? Surrounded by very good looking features (notice how his coven is?).. The only way he could remain chaste is he is gay. That's all I can think about.

That's all I could write for now. I got to study maaa...  To be continued..... The next thing we'll be talking about is about Bella.

What's the point here?

What's the point of being in a relationship when you know at the end of the day it will eat you inside out?
What's the point of loving someone when you are uncertain of the upcoming result?
What's the point of putting it all nicely together when you know one time the other behalf will crumb it into pieces?
What's the point of getting back when getting back is actually starting from the ground?
What's the point of giving chances when you know it's hopeless?
What's the point of hurting the pride when there's really no less to be found?
What's the point of noticing the small matters when there's a bigger one to be concerned?
What's the point of admitting the truth when the truth told is really a lie?
What's the point of coming into one's life when you're comfortable on your own?
What's the point of trying so hard when the other behalf don't seem to see it at all?
What's the point of admiring when you know it's just something you won't get?
What's the point of approaching someone just so that they'll kick you out of their life, shameful, isn't?

So, here's the one answer for all:
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang
Sayang

Mengatur Langkah...

Aku aturi langkah lesu penuh kebimbangan, kehujanan. Elok kuatur, selangkah, selangkah. Ku tak mahu terjatuh lagi. Tak mampu terluka lagi. Pedihnya tak upaya ku tanggung. Licin? Ya, memang licin jalannya. Tersilap langkah, bodoh alangku nanti. Malu sendiri di khalayak. Setiap titis hujan kubiarkan mengalir. Biarku perbodohkan diri sendiri, menipu hati, biar tidak kusedar yang mengalir dipipi itu bukannya air dari langit. Biar ku tertawa keseorangan, biar mereka berkata, bukan hatiku yang dilukai.  Biar lah aku dalam duniaku sendiri. Biarkan.

Kadangkala ku tersenyum keseorangan, memikirkan salah-silapku. Ya, semuanya salahku. Tidak pernah dirimu salah. Masa yang salah kuberi. Hari yang salah kuberi. Tempat yang salah kuberi. Info yang salah kuberi. Bukan keluargamu juga aku yang salah. Tidak pernah salahmu. Tidak pernah maaf kau uturkan. Tidak pernah dirimu jatuh seorang pesalah. Semuanya aku. Mungkin juga. Mungkin banyak benar salahku, sehingga sebegini rupa diriku dilayan. Satu demi satu, diriku semakin dekat dengan sampah dijalan hidupmu.

Perlukah kuterus berharap? Perlukah ku terus perbodohkan diri ini? Perlukah kuterus mempercayai masa depan yang tidak pasti? Yang tidak tentu hala tujunya? Yang tidak berpaksi realiti kini? Entah. Aku bodoh sebegini. Suluhkan sinarmu, jika ini yang kau mahu. Aku sesat. Sesat mencari sesuatu yang kusendiri tidak pasti. Tunjukkan apa mahumu. Ku tak rela menunggu. Biarkan ku terus, mengatur langkah.

Life is A Big Fat Drama: Downer.

Have you ever felt this in your life? When you've achieved something, or do something good, and wanna talk about it (not bragging) as it makes you FEEL good, and there's this one person, one particular person who's everything came out from his mouth is nothing but to make you feel bad? And I'm not talking about trolling. I know what that's word means, and it's a joke. I can take it. And I'm sure there're people like this in your life too.

And this person, goes all the way, on and on, trying to get your spirit down, underestimating what you do, provoking you to do something about it. Well, so far, I'm holding it together. I did not, even once, broke down to my knees, cry and snap about it, though he did, several times actually, snapped on me.

Everyone else could see how stupid bitches are

Well, let's get technical. Why do you think he/she tries so hard bringing you down? What's in it for him/her?

I've consulted many friends, and researched about it. The answer is, because you're above them, they feel threatened by your existence, thus, they'll put you down just for the sake of self-satisfaction, or so he/she could be the top dog again.

In my case, admitted, he scored way better marks than me, and he's intelligence, but that's as far he could go. And he could see it I did a lot more than him. I'm not bragging okay, but I think his lack of self esteem brings it to his acts and heart. And when he saw me achieve this and that, he started acting bitchy to me, which is fine actually, as he potrayed his own deficiencies.

Also, the exception is that, when you're the scumbag yourself. That's karma we're talking about. You treat people as how you wanted to be treated, hold to that and you'll be fine.

Moreover, let's not being a self-righteous for a while. We're human. Although we try very hard not to make any mistakes and keep straight on the right path, it's humane to not. People love people, people hurt people, people try to make other people trip, and people try to lift some others. It's what people do.

My advice for those who have the same problem as me, keep it cool. I know, it's hard to handle sometimes, but remember, it's impossible to satisfy everyone with your act. There'll always be scumbags like this in life, one you have to deal with. Just do what you feel right, and let them keep the judgment to themselves. After a while, they'll know what they're doing is stupid, juvenile and vain. Then, they'll be ashamed of themselves. Before you go, this is a site that'll make you feel good, eh?



That's all. Kbye. =)

Hidup Seorang Budak UIA: Bau Badan

Assalamualaikum,

Hari ni nak membebel sket la.. Tadi aku pi makan kat Cafe Ali (baca: cafe aku) , yg mana cafe paling best dalam UIA. Diakui ramai dari Habsah sampai ke Salahuddin. Aku beli nasik, ayam goreng (baca: KFC) n coleslaw. Excited sungguh aku lepas bayar tu. Dari pagi lagi x makan. Pastu berlari-lari kebapaan la ke kaunter air utk membeli secawan air anggur berais (baca: Ribena) yg mmg menjadi feveret aku. Sambil la beratur tu, aku disapa aroma yang sangat memualkan (baca: BAU LOJI), rasa nak muntah pun ade. Tengok kat belakang, sorang mamat black ngah beratur sambil tangan diangkat2 melebihi paras bahu memanggil akak jual air tu. "Mango banana sister!! Mango Banana!!" Dia menjerit2 penuh kehausan tanpa mempedulikan aku yang hampir pengsan, mulut berbuih dan mata terbuntang meminta ehsan dilepaskan dari seksa neraka dunia ittew.

Iced Mango Banana sister!!!

Aku yang dibawah...

Inilah 1 kelemahan jika anda x cukup inci (baca: tinggi lampai) dan menuntut di UIA (baca: Oxford). Jika anda berasa hanya mampu setinggi Zami Ismail, sila batalkan niat nak belajar kat UIA. Ni baru kat cafe, dlam bas lagi la plak. Macam2 campuran, lagi hebat aromanya.

Menda ni x jadi masalah sebenarnya, kalau dorg kenal apa tu Rexona, Right Guard, Safi, Old Spice High Endurance (yg ni bagus), or Adidas, Brylcream, etc. Ni dah la deodorant x pakai, perfume jauh skali. Sekali lalu sebelah berpinar mata rasanya. Menda ni bukan terhad kat lelaki saja. Pompuan foreigner pun sama. Pernah skali aku lalu di belakang minah black ni, bau cam xmandi 2bulan sambil tidur ngan kambing. Pengotor!

If you're not a foreigner, and still was-was pasal bau badan korg, cuba try step ni:

1) Berdiri depan cermin besar dlam bilik korg tu, admire diri sendiri dulu, puji2 sket bagi mengembangkan mana yg patut.
2) Panggil roomate korg, suh cium ketiak korg. Kalau dia hidup lagi lepas tu, tahniah, ketiak anda wangi. Lau dia pitam, hidung berdarah, muntah hijau keluar asid perut, sambil menyumpah seranah anda 1 keturunan, sila panggilkan ambulan cepat2 sambil mengenakan deodorant. Anda tidak mahu menjadi pembunuh bersiri, bukan?

Buat camni...

My message, kenal la diri anda. Kalau sedar diri bau tu hazab, pakai r perfume n deodorant banyak2, supaya x menyusahkan orang laen. Sebelum orang fire kat atas muka, baek kau ubah sendiri. Betul x?

Thanks for reading. Bye2 =)

Life Is A Big Fat Drama: Of A Cleaner, Friend and Crap.

It's a world's greatest love story, and suddenly I'm a part of it. Ho yeah!! Betapa besarnya hatiku, tankayu!

To those who concerned,

Before everything, may I ask you some questions? Am I not the one who's been a sponge draining every little drops you tear down? Am I not the one who you used to ask for advices? Am I not the one who you'd turn to when everything you want to hear about him you couldn't ask yourself? What did he eat, where did he go, who is that he's friend with, am I not the one who answers all that? Suddenly you stepped up now and I'm the bad guy, you say, conspiring to bring down the one who you love (yes, you still do), my friend?

I can see that. You're a big girl now. You have it all figured out. How's that working out for you? Guess you don't wake up in the middle of the night, crying, thinking about him are you? And maybe you don't walk out of your door with hope of seeing him every single second?

Dear grown-up girl,

GET YOURSELF A BRAIN AND QUIT BITCHING AROUND ABOUT HOW PEOPLE BEING CRUEL TO YOU, AND PLEASE, FOR THE SAKE OF OTHERS, QUIT THINKING ABOUT HIM OUT LOUD. YOU BROUGHT THIS UPON YOURSELF!!!

there's no room for a backstabbing bitch in my life

ADIOS!

Life As an English Major: LIKE? What's Wrong With You?

A dialogue in The Glee Project:

Emily: The only thing, though, is like, sometimes you have to be like, be careful (of) what you say,because you like, you might have like, offended Brooke when you say something.
Ellis: What did I say?
Lindsay: You, like, you kinda raise your hand, and you were, like asking for a step, you were, like, "Is that right?"  And she was like "Yeah, you did right." And you were just like, "I just don't wanna look like a dumbasss." (The Glee Project, episode 2, 2011)



You don't have to be an English Major to detect what's wrong with those sentences. Yeah, like, thank you. It's, like, the overusing of the word 'like' in like, almost every part of their conversation. It's how people talk nowadays. So, what's wrong with it? Is it grammatically correct?

Well, 'like' can be used in many range of uses, from conjunction to particles. To explain all these uses would need a special entry, so better look at here.

Though, in some cases, it's annoying and rather almost sad to hear the overusage of this word. For English stickler like me, you can't help it but correcting their sentences.

Apparently, I'm not the only one who's been bothered by these phenomenon, Oprah feels the same. I've watched a show where she, like sarcastically commented on a guest's statement who goes like this:

Guest: I dun know, like, I hate to say it, but like, it's his job, so, like, he has to know what I ordered. When I like, get something else, and if it's like, not good, then I'll complaint. 


Why do you talk like that, BITCH?!!

Don't you think it would be easier if you just say it like this:


Guest: I don't know. I hate to say it, but it's his job. So, he has to know what I ordered. When I get something else, and if it's not good, then I'll complaint. (?)


English is easy, don't complicate it. B'sides, for me, those who talks like this resembles their weakness in conveying message, aren't stable in making decision, and forgive my word, dumb. That's why Paris Hilton and  Nicole Richie talk that way.



That's all from a blabbering student, TQ.

Life is A Big Fat Drama: Funk

I dun know what happened to me lately. I've been perpertually angry, constantly feeling like yelling at people the whole time? Last Sunday I scolded a McD receptionist, after yelling at Celcom operator when they changed my Celcom plan from UOX to normal XPAC.

I know it was wrong. But undeniably, it does feel good afterwards. Maybe after having too much to conceive, I finally let go of the Sue Sylvester in me, except rather than wearing incredibly unchanging sportswear,I let this one go naked and primal. I felt embarassed but at the same time relieved.

I dun think I can get out much in here. I mean, expressing your emotion in writing does feel great, especially when the things you're writing are words you can't verbally discharge, but I rather talk to someone in person. Better yet, I'm gonna call him now. If you have any idea to help me, leave it in the comment box, or message me, FB, phone, I dun mind. Just don't tell me I have to go to therapist.



P/S: Last night I dreamed of my crush is 41-years-old and have 2 children already. Shoot.


Okay people, now get out of here, and get a life. 
Thanks for reading. TQ. =)

Friendship VS Love

These things have been a major conflict in me for a very,very long time. Funny though, after hurts and triumphs, no one among these two come up to be the winner. I don't really have a bestfriend, nor a lover. Why? I'll tell you why.

Read carefully what I've written, and try to relate to your life. You met a person, you feel good being with him/her. You're comfortable around him/her, keep texting each other to the very last details, you have a feeling though undecidedly whether it is just a friendship or love. You lost in contact or decided to wait and see what happened next without doing anything, and then you stop trying, and you drift further away from one another, and suddenly all those texting, missing, adoring become awkwardly strange. You meet a new person and this happens again and again. Now, this is my 1st reason.

Secondly, friendship and love has always, always been a rival to one another. How do I put this...? Hurm... Lets say he/she is undefinately awesome, and single (my friends are always single when I first know them),I feel comfortable around him/her, and I trusted him/her. In fact, the bonding itself built of trust...

Then out of the blue, he/she falls back in line, finding her/himself with someone they like, and everything else after that is history.

You know you need to back off when they started to choose their crush over you. You have been with him/her for a long time, going from the river deep to mountain high, the suddenly there's this prince charming come by, sweeping up your friend, leaving you numbed and shocked behind while they're sailing to Wonderland. How you could not being hurt by that?

Well yeah, being a friend, encouraging them to find their happiness, that's what you do. But deep in your heart, you need to know this means you're no longer will be their priority. Suddenly this guy/girl who appear just for a brief become your friend's bestfriend, and you're just another bag he/she left behind.

To be honest, I do not blame them. It's natural. It's what love do. It drives you deaf and blind, numb and dumb. It's perfectly okay. I mean, you can't honestly believe I can fight over love, can I? It's human's most primal instinct. So, the best way is to step back on this one, hurt a little bit, and get over it. Though watching from afar, looking at them while saying 'Goodluck, my friend. I love you.' can be very very sad. That's just what you have to do, as a friend.

Just want you to know that I'm stepping down, because I love you, and what we did together are legendary.

What Lies Ahead?

Have you ever wondered sometimes? What's the path you're taking will lead to?  Is it clear enough that you can see right through it? Or is it still fogged with confusion and dilemma of what people expecting you to do and what your true interest in? Robert Frost helped us with 'The Road Not Taken', showing us of what it might be if we took the other path instead of what you're doing right now.





As an English Major, I'm looking forward to something artsy. If you're a regular reader, then you might know what I'm involve with in UIA. I'm practically bonded with theater, plays and stage show. But never intended to earn my living with showbiz world. I'm not a 'retis'. The dream of showbiz world is unlikely the most promising ones. In fact, it's the most unrealistic one. Also, my family wouldn't like it much. Yes, my passion is there, but I'm not gonna do it.

Often people ask me, what would an English Major end up after their graduation? The answer is so many. But for those who're in villages, who don't get too much exposition, I'll just say "Kuar nanti jadi cikgu la. Mengajar." End of story. If I say "Oh I dun know. Maybe a forensic linguist? Or corporate trainers? Lexicographers? Speech-analyzer? Hurm.. I think I'm just gonna settle down with translator, rated about RM0.50 per words. That'll do." Then their jaws will drop and "What?". Then I'll have to explain more.



The art of fate is so deliberate. Some are born with silver spoon in their mouth and ended up sweeping the roadside. Some started out with nothing now own a cosmetics empire (Hello Sosilawati!). An uncle of mine who's a biotechnology Master graduate is now doing financial, investment and venture capital thingy , and couldn't complain less about it. Another uncle, who's an applied science graduate quitted his job and now
opens a photography shop, teaching other people about it. My former director, an English Major graduate now works as sales executive. My point is, the courses you're taking is a preparation to the real world. Real world begins after your graduation.

Personally I believe that you should do what you'd like to do, and what you're good at. Can't be more specifics than that. But granted, you can't always get what you want. sometimes, life's good at playing tricks. But till that, you just have to be patient, and live with it.

What is it for me? Well I have my life planned ahead good enough for me. Now I'm doing some translations for websites for free. Yes, for free. I'm doing it for experience, just until I'm calibrate enough to do a paid job. Then, I'll be doing some travel and venture journalism independence till I graduate. By the time I finish my degree, I'll be qualified to do both translations and journalism. That'll be enough for my part time job upon continuing my Master. Then it'll be a full time career, and I'll be travelling everywhere, and with God's willing, I'm taking my mother with me. Marriage? Life partner? That can wait.

Then, by the time I'm 50 or something like that, I'll be teaching at local universities to earn my living. Be close to my family, helping with theater and stuffs, and that'll be it.

This is just one of my plans, the one I'm working on. InsyaAllah I'll achieve it someday. Pray for me.. Amin...

Life is A Big Fat Drama: Tartuffe




It is ironic, isn't? The things you study in a class involved so much in your personal life. Yes, it does sounds comical but believe me, none of these are made up. I sometimes hope so too, that this is just a dream where I can wake up from suddenly when it's too much to bear. But no. It's not like that. At least not for now.

If life really is a big fat drama, I'd prefer Tim Burton to direct mine. I'll be in a magical land, and a happy ending is a promise. Or Craig Thomas and Carter Bay, one story ends in one episode. But no. My life isn't directed by these people. I am directing my life, and I've done a pretty bang up job so far. Though it's not, 100% not my fault.

I'd care to tell these whole problem to one person, one in particular. And to all of you who think I'm matter enough for you to care about, yes, but family business is strictly off the net. All I can say is, read Tartuffe, and you'd have idea of what I'm talking about. For those airhead who don't bother to read, or say they read, but actually just got the synopsis, let me fill you in.

Tartuffe is a French play about how a stranger can cause so much trouble into a family that adopted him, masked by his pretentious pious, modelling character, who revealed to be an evil greedy notorious hog.

One who I, we trusted so much, betrayed us in the end. I remember those hands, they feed me when I was a little boy. Now, they took things that are supposed to be us. What you give, you get back, they say. But you take them way too much. May be those pills and drinks and worldly pleasures have numbed your senses of judgement, senses of humanity. I don't know.. None of you are what you're used to be.

Frankly speaking, I want nothing else but to retrieve what you've taken, and you back into our little coven. Come back to where you belong. Come back home.

What Is It?

Assalamualaikum,

Yeah, I know, cliche intro, "Sorry for the silence, busy, assignments, yada yada", padahalnye x busy sgt pun. Malas je yang sebenarnye. Yelah, sape je pun yg view blog aku nieh. Kawan2 fesbuk, followers yang bengang sal ak x follow dorg balik (I'm sorry yea.. Klau follow tu tggal r link kt chatbox.. ak xpandai trace. Nanti ak follow balik", paling2 pun stalkers yang x pernah penat lelah menyusahkan hidup ak. TQ. Seriously, thank you. U've helped me to brightened up my world and see what I never saw before. As hard as I to admit, u brought out the colors into this life, and for that, I owe you one.

Ok, what else, yeah. Sue da give birth to a girl, namely Cub, which is 2 months a go (YARRKHH?!). And, Panda, my guinea pigs, da menyumbang kepada kebuntingan 2 ekor betina, CoCoPuff, and one that is unnamed yet, and both gave up 2 babies. 2 more sarat mengandung, tunggu masa jea. Tgk la nnt, aku upload cni ea.

Mid Term. Offensive matter. Honestly, aku rasa boleh jawab Mass Comm n Morphology jea. SoHa, Phonetics n Drama aku da campak ketepi. Tengok je la camne nanti.. Harap2 la pass. Target sem ni nak dpt dean list, insyaAllah. Lama dah mak aku tunggu anak dia ni nak dpt dean list.

Oh, speaking of drama, sem ni aku x join mana2 teater sbb da terikat dengan my own play, namely Tartuffe, which is originally a French play. Tartuffe means an imposter in French. Ape tu 'imposter'? Cam con artist la.. Klau layan Ocean's The Series, or Leverage, tau la. Tarikh pementasan, xtau lagi. Between 13-14 Disember. TAHUN ni. X kuasa ak nk tunggu smpai tahun depan.

Sem ni jugak, I've learned something about friendship. Sebenarnya aku da tahan lama, cuma malas nak meletup. Bukan aku takut, but I'm more to thinking about the consequences. Lagi boleh sabar, aku sabar. Tapi da tgk aku da laen tu faham2 je la. STOP YOUR CRAPS. Jangan sampai tangan yang berbicara.

Mungkin aku yang dulu da lama bagi dah, tapi sejak I met someone, dia da banyak ubah aku, jadi lebih rational, patience, matured in short. Dulu aku jenis pemarah, outspoken. Kalau x suka, aku cakap x suka. Sekarang, I'm more to jaga hati kawan, mungkin ada sebab dia wat camtu, I try to reach to him. Tp ni x bermakna selama-lamanya aku berdiam. Lots about this, I learned from him.

Oh no. Him who I'm talking about is not my love life. No. Aku masih waras utk menyintai seseorang yg mempunyai genitals yang sama dengan aku. The world's population is reaching up to 6 BILLIONS. I'm sure there's someone somewhere for me. But for now, biar la dulu. Aku lebih berfikir untuk membahagiakan family aku sebelum membahagiakan anak orang.

Is there someone special in my life? Of course yes. But it's too soon to tell. No rush.

Though, there's a girl I keep my eyes on. She's fair, good looking, and a wife material. Apa tu wife material? Come on, it's not like I keep a long list of that. Ok, you twisted my arm. She's modest, lovable, patience, likes kids, a wonderful cook, and easy on the eyes. Doesn't really to meet the Hitchcock's definition of beauty, (tall, skinny, blonde, humunguos racks, etc) but, hey, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.

Oh this reminds me of my Drama lecture. Well, I'll save it for our next post, ok? OK. Keep in touch, lau x add aku agie kat fb, add ah. I'd like to know you. If we're already friends, remember me in your prayers, k? I always pray for you.


That's it I think. Thanks for viewing, Assalamualaikum.

Letter to Yaya (Guide for Newbie Hedgehog Owner Part-Two)

Dear Yaya,

This is my second half of the letter, and this will tell you as much possible what you need to take care of hedgehog. I've already talked about caging, bedding, diet and toys in here (click for part one), now we'll proceed to the behaviour, which I think is the most important thing.

BEHAVIOUR

Like any other hedgehog, Joey is a territorial animal, means that he best kept alone, except for the certain time when sexual intercourse may happen. However, they might be able to live together, provided with big cage, like Sue and James.

1. Joey is as I mentioned before, a hyperactive, that means he likes to run around, and that WILL result in him redecorating the entire cage, your decorations, wheel, toys, bed, everything. So, what might be the problem here is the feeding bowl. I'm suggesting that you buy the commercial feeding bowl to ensure that the food doesn't fall on the floor. Something like this:

Or any other feeding bowl that you think is suitable. Something with a wide base for the stability. For the water, give him in a bottle like this:

 This might costs you Rm5++...

2. Besides that, Joey is still a baby. He's 2-months-old, and as human babies, he might poop a lot especially when you're trying to pick him up (though I've never had any experience with Joey poop all over me, just for the warning). I've had the same experience with Sue, but it got over as she grow older. 

3. Joey likes to climb. Pick him up and he'll climb all over you. This wouldn't be a problem unless you didn't cut his toenails, or else, it might hurt you a little bit. 

4. Also, if you find him sniffing on something, then he do a little acrobatic act, bending his back like this:


don't worry. This is called annointing. He'll produce white bubbles from his saliva and put it on his back. He'll do this if he finds new scents and like it.

5. Next, Joey is a baby, and that will put him in a quilling phase. Quilling phase is when he lose his old quills and grow new ones. At this phase, he might be a little bit jumpy, and furious, as it's uncomfortable with him.

CARE AND EMERGENCIES

You might find this section a little bit annoying as well as tiring, but it's what you have to prepare for if you're gonna get a hedgehog.

1. Trim his toenails when you find it's long enough. This is for your own safety actually, cause sharp toenails might hurt you. Of course, there's a way to do it. Just a simple procedure like this:


2. Feed him treat. Treat is as I mentioned, may include vegetation like grapes, oranges, mashed potatoes, or mealworm. This is to make him happier living with you as well as providing enough vitamin.

3. Bleeding or small cut may worry you, but there's the way to treat that. Hold the cut firmly, and apply wet clean towel or clothes, as well as some minyak gamat or olive oil. That'll do the trick. Believe me. He and Sue fight all the time.

4.This might disgust you a little, but hedgehog's health much can be told by the poo. Healthy poop looks like this:

OKay, this is disgusting. Let's scroll down asap.
