Endless Summer

3am. Still up and awake. May, June, basically disappeared just like that. Oh well. Believe it or not, I finished my first semester in college. I'm back in Penang, currently. For my three weeks break.

But I don't think it can be considered as holidays. Personal statement, working attachment, KY Summit. There are just lotsa things to be done. And I've been wasting a lot of time. Doing basically nothing.
I really need to study, and do something productive. But well, sometimes I'm just too tired. Haha.

A lot of things happened back in May and June. My exams, KTJ Model United Nations Conference, a few others. I can't believe its already Syaaban. Ramadhan is just a few days away. I'm sure it would be different this fasting month. I would be fasting in KY instead of fasting at home. Obviously I'm gonna miss home so much.

I guess. I gotta start being used to the distance. Cause if everything goes on smoothly after this, I would be thousands of miles away from home. I hope everything will be fine though. I tend to chicken out when I think about my A-Levels exam. Confidence level = 0.

Here comes the part where I don't know what to say anymore. 1st July, that means I only have 11 months left for A levels exam. Hell, back to SPM all over again. Haha. Dahla, being so emo-ish, thinking too much over things nowadays.

Damn, I'm making everything sounds so difficult. Nah, it's nothing like that lah. I still believe that life is beautiful, with or without A Levels exam. Lol.

So, whatever you do, whatever situation you're in, please remember to be grateful for being alive, and never forget that life is just so, so beautiful. Cause it truly is. Night peeps.

Philosophical

I told jeff I was feeling a little bit philosophical yesterday. So he told me to blog about it. Haha. The things that are happening around me, somehow makes me think again and again about life. I mean, don't you realize that every little thing that happen affects our life in one way or another, but only if we allow it to do so? 

I like what Pn. Raha said yesterday. "The challenges in life either changes you, or forces you to change, in a good way." 

And..

“Happiness, it has been observed, is best achieved by those who have been most unhappy heretofore.” - Millard Kaufman (Bowl of Cherries)

"If you're gonna burn a bridge behind you, make sure you've crossed it first." - Quentin R.Bufogle

So you see, in order to be happy, I guess you'll be going through lots and lots of pain before that. And you just have to be strong, to taste the fruit of success in the end. I'm crapping  a lot here. I'm just gonna post whatever I find interesting. It's really inspirational, for me at least. :)

"The most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered, but to have fought well." - Pierre de Courbertin

Last but not least,

I'll always remember this. "Pain comes before success. And a scar means, you survived."

It Ain't The Same, but Life's Pretty Good. Really

Sooooo. It's almost mid-april. God. Time is passing by faster than I thought. April, that means my Semester Exam is next month. Am I ready? Well, I think I'm gonna do my best for this exam. I've been screwing up too much. Haha.

Yesterday, my tutor talked to me about UCAS application, personal statement and stuff like that. Damn, I just got my SPM results, and I'll be completing my A Levels in a year time. BUT! I will have to apply for university somewhere in September. So if you add and minus the time remaining, it's about 5 months away. Uh huh. My tracking grades are okay I guess. But obviously, there's always room for improvement. I just have to stop being lazy lah.

Ohh. Tomorrow is KY's open day. I kinda volunteered for the college tour. Who knows, maybe it's gonna be fun. :)

I've not been updating this blog, I THINK. So I kinda miss it. As for my 'personal' life, hmm. Something I wanna avoid for now. Damn, I'm posting too much info here. Don't wanna be threaten like the girls in Pretty Little Liars. Lol. Hey, if you kinda wanna listen to an amazing song, listen to Our Story by Graham Colton. That dude has an amazing voice, and an amazing song as well.

That's all guys. Chiow! :D

Mister Perfect?

It's 5 am. And I'm going back in a few hours time. But I promised my bestie Tati, that I'm gonna make a post about my perfect guy. Since she did hers a few days ago, now its my turn.

So. My perfect guy. Hmm. I must admit, I'm quite confused and blur right now. Okay, my guy has to be taller than me. I don't know, a short guy is somehow a turn off for me. Haha. Wait, lets start with the most important thing of all. I am mostly attracted to intelligent guys. Yeah, weird but true. I think its all sexy and cute when he is super smart. Oh god, nerdy guys are so perfect.

Nerdy guys, but not the one with big specs or anything. Just you know, a normal nerd. That should be fine.  :) A lil bit of sense of humor. No stupid jokes I guess. For example, Max in 90210? Haha. I love him. Then.. He has to be very understanding. I must admit I can be quite troublesome sometimes. So yeah, he has to understand me and knows how to comfort me. That would be so nice.

Next, he has to be patient with me. But at the same time, he's brave enough to say what's right. Maybe bold enough to tell me that I am wrong. I don't want a guy who's just gonna say, 'it's okay, things will get better in time.' Nope. I need a guy who can help me to find solution to my problems, without getting bored and tired of me.

It would be a bonus if he has a great taste in music, and he reads the newspaper almost every day. Because most of the guys nowadays couldn't be bothered about reading newspapers anymore. Don't you think being informative is sexy as well? Haha. Then.. I would appreciate it if he would dress up quite decently. With muscles, please. Hehe.

Mister perfect also has to be someone with crazy ideas. Like, maybe the one who would go to a fishing trip with me? I don't want mister boring, please. On top of that, he has to be cool, humble, and cheerful. A person who is easy to talk to and doesn't mind socializing in events or parties or stuff like that. Oh yea, I do not like secrets. So I guess he has to share everything with me. No matter whether its good or bad.

A person who knows what he wants to do, and earn it. Not the kinda person who just waits around for something to come. Smart enough to guide me through the journey of life, and also someone who can prepare me for the journey hereafter. Lastly, it's always the normal thing. So yeah,  he has to be caring, quite religious, truthful, a person who respect the elders, LOVE children, and a person who's gonna love me his whole life.

PS : Basically mister perfect just has to be a super hot nerd. ;)

Back For Holidays

Hello. :)

I'm back in Penang! Well, I kinda think I only blog whenever I'm back. So far, that's kinda true. Well, right now I'm having my two weeks break. Yeah, two weeks. Cool aite? But... I still have lots of homeworks to be done, folios, presentations. Typical college life I guess? Hehe. And there's a lot to do during the holidays too.

Here comes the worst part. My SPM results are coming out this week. Truth is, I feel like hiding inside my room, underneath my comforter and ignore all the things thats gonna happen this wednesday. Haih. Somehow, I dont have the courage to face this.

Okay, the best part is... Well. Everything is pretty good. College, friends, life, family. What else could I ask for? So, what are my plans for the holidays? (apart from homework of course).

I wanna bake, that's one thing. Meet you. ;) Then.. I'm gonna eat the nicest food in Penang. Yeah, I'm gonna hunt for the best food. Hang out with my friends, catch up with them, design my new bedroom in 8 Gurney and most probably, study. Lol.

I guess.. That's it. Nothing much right now. Just feeling nervous, scared and anxious thanks to SPM results. Let's bake a cake and release all that, shall we? Take care loves! :)

The Fighter

Here goes nothing. The fighter, it's a really inspiring song to me. So where am I right now? Well, I'm in Penang, going back to KY this evening. It's pretty sad because I'm not coming back to Penang anymore until 16th March. But that's okay. KY is not bad either.

I've been pretty busy with college life. We have tests and stuff like that every week. It's kinda tiring but its bearable laa. And I'm thinking of starting up a softball club. I don't know why, but I love softball. Trust me, its the best way to release stress I guess. Haha.

Oh yeah, and I'll be getting my SPM results on the 22nd of March. Scarryyyyy. Let's just hope for the best then. Adoi. Since Malam Citra Budaya ends on 3rd March, I have to celebrate my birthday in KY. But I already got my birthday present from my parents and I love it! Thanks mum and dad.

So that's it, nothing much to say.  Lastly, here's a quote which I find interesting.
"Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability." -John Wooden-

Nasi Kandar

I don't know whether its weird to blog about food, but everytime I'm in KY, I do miss the food in Penang.
I wish there was a mamak stall in KY or something. Still, KY is a nice place though. Seriously.

So yesterday, I had Nasi Kandar Beratur again. Hehe. Today, I'm planning to find a nice Teh Tarik stall and also maybe Char Koay Teow? I'm still in Penang and I'll be going back to KY tomorrow.

There's also another thing. Everytime I come back to Penang, I'll shop like... A mad woman. Uh huh. For no specific reason. Thanks dad. I promise I'll do my best in college. :)

LOL. 

Right now I'm just listening to Air Supply. God, I love them. Their songs are like magical. Gotta finish my homework soon. And here's some pictures of KY, as I promised. Haha. 

Take care peeps. ;)

Told you it's in the middle of a jungle

Besides studying, we eat, HEALTHILY. Lol. 

Get It Right

So I throw up my fists, throw a punch in the air

And accept the truth that sometimes life isn't fair.

Yeah, I'll send down a wish and I'll send up a prayer

And then finally someone will see how much I care. 

What can you do when your good isn't good enough

I just wanna fix it somehow

But how many times will it take for me

To get it right. 

Valley Of Desire

It's been quite awhile. Emm.. I'm not gonna lie, it does feel weird leaving KY. KY is.. Well. I guess its the place that's gonna teach you a lot in your life. It is one of the best place to do your A Levels. So basically, everyone here works really hard to achieve what they want. I went through the induction week. It was fun actually.

I wanted to take pictures but then I didn't bring my camera along. But it'll be here soon. I promise. So what do I think about ky? It's an interesting place. Eventhough we're staying in the middle of a jungle, or a forest or whatever it is, (I saw monkeys), I kinda love it. Everyone here is nice. Helpful, humble. And the facilities here are great. Seriously. What do you want? We have a swimming pool, basketball courts, netball courts, 5 badminton courts, 2 squash courts, 2 tennis courts. A gym, a female fitness room, soccer field, rugby field, ping pong, bicycles. So yeah, I think I'm gonna be healthy here. Hehe. Trying my best la.

I'm in Garnet, which is the red house. And I enjoy my math classes with Mr. Highton, he's funny and basically an honest man. Oh, time is very important here. You have to know how to manage your time well. And being late, well, thats not good. It'll get you into a lot of trouble. And.. The best thing about the college is, people enjoy being at the resource centre(library).

The food is also nice. I'm staying at the apartment, which is quite far from the classes and stuff. But its bigger than the chalet. I live with 3 awesome seniors. Hehe. A few days ago we had their batch anniversary night. Yerp. We managed to do it in a week. Seriously, my batchmates are super awesome. The 14.5s!

Right now I'm having my one week break. I do miss KY. Haha. Anyway, I'm enjoying myself in Penang too. The food, and I shopped like two days straight. Lol.
Looked for books and stuff. But its hard to find the books I need in Penang. So..
Long live KY! And to the 14.5s, may our spirit continue to burn throughout our journey. :)

Louder Than Ever

Finished packing, at last. Got everything done. What else? I'm just hoping everything will turn out fine. I'll be missing Penang, and its food. Hehe.

My family, parents, crazy brothers and sister. Hmm. Friends. Mostly, you. ;)

Well, I'm just too sleepy and pretty blank right now. One day left. 

BUT I'M GONNA BE BACK SOOOOOONNNNNNNNNN! HELL YEAH, PENANG!

 PS : Chinese New Year Break. hehe. 

Let's Fly Away

Like a bird needs the air

Like a flower needs the earth to care

I need you.

Like the sun needs the moon

Like the stars need the sky

I need you.

Come on baby, let's fly away

To higher skies and watch the world go by. 

It'll just be you and I.

And when the soldiers come seven high

I'll take your hand and collide it with mine

And everything will feel so right. 

Like the sea needs the sand

My hand is desperate for your hand. 

Spin It Up

It's 5th of January 2012. Yesterday, I was in Putrajaya sending my younger brother to a boarding school. I hope he'll be fine there. So.. In a few days, it will be my turn. Haha.

I'll be going to kolej yayasan UEM or mostly known as kyuem. You can google it if you want to, and if I'm not mistaken, its on Wikipedia. I'll be doing my A-levels there. Right now, I'm having mixed feelings. Excited, scared but mostly nervous. New environment, new friends. But hey, I'm looking forward to it actually.

Er. It's already thursday and I'll be leaving on next tuesday. Trying to get all the things done and ready. Now that things are once again different, I think I'll be back in Penang every two weeks or so, I hope.

Anyway, just got back from Gurney with Ezzati. It was a nice day. Haha. Talked about stuff, shop the things we needed. Met Wahida and Shazwani. It feels weird to be away from school. haha.

This is a random thing to say, but smile makes you look younger, and prayers make you feel stronger. So yeah, smile all the time even when your life is upside down. You can always spin it up right again you know. :)

Shadows

You're not the person that you used to be,
The one I want who wanted me,
And that's a shame but,
There's only so many tears that you can cry.
Before it drains the light right from your eyes,
And I can't go on that way.
And so I'm letting go of everything we were,
It doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.

Sometimes you hold so tight,
It slips right through your hands.
Will I ever understand?

A New Beginning

I wanted to post about singapore but I was too tired and I fell asleep. Then I changed my mind. Hehe.

So hello 2012, it's a pleasure to meet you. Film producers and directors have been talking about you, so we shall see what you have for me yeah?

Singapore, was pretty fun. It was a short trip with one purpose. To shop. Oh, and also eat. But we still had some time to visit the Ducati's showroom. And all of a sudden, my brothers want a Ducati instead of a car. Weird weird people. Hmph. Celebrated new year around marina bay's area to see the fireworks. And I had a weird way of ending and starting my new year. Haha. It was, pretty unbelievable.

Oh yea, there was a nasi padang shop called 'Warong Nasi Pariaman'. The food was oh man, fantastic, superb. And they were friendly people too. So we ate there twice. Hehe. Bought myself a couple of things but not much. So yeah, that's a simple version of my Singapore trip.

On the other hand, tomorrow we'll be having some sort of a kenduri kesyukuran for ajeen and me. Ajeen got a place in Sekolah Sultan Alam Shah, Putrajaya. And I'm going to college in.. 9 days? Yeah. Am I ready?

Well, its something that I cant run away from. I just hope everything's gonna be fine. I'll post more about college pretty soon. Anyway, its gonna be a busy, hectic week this week. But with Allah by my side, everything will turn out fine. InsyaAllah. :)
