Drowning Lessons


Guess which one i fancy more? The bird or the model? Posted by Hello
What is your value?

Something hit me today. I felt like I’ve always been left out from any social gathering due to my financial crisis. I believed that my value has decreased tremendously since the past six months. Only time will tell whether my value among my circle of friends will increase once I have a new job. Crazy as it sounds but that’s the truth. I wonder if my value could be estimated in RM how much will it be?
Truth hurts!Ouch!


How are you doing?

I’ve been wondering about my fave someone. Is he doing fine? Does he need anything? Does he want to talk? His mum passed away for a moth now. Still, I am worried about him.


Six months after he left

It’s been six months since abah passed away. Nothing much changed; only chaos and things keep going wrong.

Things that I miss the most about Abah

1) The smell of his cigarette
Yeap. I do miss the smell. One could tell that abah was at home just by the smell. Once,he tried to give up smoking after he had the stroke. But after a month we knew that he’d back to the old habit. He used to hide his cigarettes amid mom’s plants and mom would purposely water the plants so the cigarette would get wet.

2) Having meal together
I always had my meal together with him. The last meal that I had with him was on the first day of hari raya. We had some ketupat that he made for the very last time. At first he was reluctant to do it. But then I insisted on him. I really had no idea that it would be the very last time I had his ketupat. If I’d known it earlier, I’d most probably eat it all by myself and put on more weight.

3) Gossiping about mom
We always gossiped about mum in English. Sometimes she could sense that we were talking about her and she’d definitely defended herself. At times it’d end up in arguments but most of the time we all had a great laugh.

4) Radio
After abah passed away, no body ever listened to the radio that I bought for him. He used to have this small radio that he bought from the night market for RM10. The sound from the radio was really annoying. It sounded like some Martians were trying to make contact with the earthlings. So I decided to buy him a decent radio for his listening pleasure and placed it next to his lazy chair. He’d listen to the oldies and dozed off on his chair most of the afternoons. Mum would then turn off the radio and that would wake him up.

5) Talk turkey
Whenever I drove the car, we’d always have these special chats about things. We never had these conversations anywhere else but the car. We talked about things, from my well being to politic issues.


Long Vacation

The long weekends would mean nothing to me. I’ve been doing the laundry (yes, I do my own laundry at home. And yes, I don’t have a washing machine, Tq) the whole day. I moved the TV and the hi-fi around. Voila! I have a new look in my room.
I think I’m going to use the time alone at home to rejuvenate. Well, I have to use the word rejuvenate since I’ve been having a vacation all this while.LOL.


My Chemical Romance-Helena
Long ago
Just like the hearse you died to get in again
We are so far from you
Burning on just like a match you start to incinerate
The lives of everyone you knew
And whats the worst to take, from every heart you break (heart you break)
And like a blade you stake
Well I've been holding on tonight
Whats the worst that I could say? Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight So long and goodnight
Came a time
When every star fall brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold
And whats the worst you take, from every heart you break
And like a blade you stake
Well I've been holding on tonight
Whats the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight So long and goodnight
Can you hear me? Are you near me?
Do we deserve to leave the earth?
Do we learn
When both our cars collide?
Whats the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight So long and goodnight
