thus far...

I spent an enjoyable day at Kota Bharu, thanks to Zie Yang for the ride. It's nice to go out and meet people and watch pretty girls(wooops...) and eat my favorite double cheese burger and buy new movies. And I did those today. The burger tasted just as good as it always does. Well, if I were to eat it together with more friends, it would have been tastier. As I strolled in a video shop, I came across two titles that I've been looking for since last June; Star Wars: Clone Wars and Resident Evil: Degeneration. Both looked GOOD! The prices looked even BETTER! In the end, I picked the latter as I am always an avid fan of Resident Evil. Around 6 p.m., we decided to go home as the weather looked less promising.

Just as soon as I wanted to lie down, Sim Lim called. Oh ya, tonight was the last day of his holidays! The same went to some other friends of mine. And so we went to KFC for dinner. Time like this used to be very common, we went out like this almost everyday. But now, as everyone has separate ways, every single reunion seems to be quite precious. I recalled the day they did Lily's birthday the day before Christmas. We weren't used to this celebrate-birthday-tradition when we were in Dato' Mahmud. Perhaps now that the situation has changed, we appreciate those around us even more. And all these little memories, we shall keep them in our minds, and share them again whenever time permits. Heh, isn't that wonderful? Last time when I was in second grade, I scored badly. My homeroom teacher then told me this;-

" Grades are just temporary. Even if you pass with flying colours this time, there is no guarantee you'll get the same thing next time. After a while, you'll forget them. The memories to get those grades, however, last forever. "

Aye, she has the point.

Around 10 p.m., I played a few rounds while I did the waiting. Two hours later, I began to realise that the waiting was futile, so I quit. Sigh, there are times where I wonder if I'm just dreaming all this while, and when I wake up, everything is gone. Just then, I found something else to do, but my modem seemed to be malfunctioning. How sweet. After watching Degeneration, I decided to call it a day.

Sigh, it's already 29th. The waiting resumes, a fortnight, or more. Let's just hope that great things will come together with this New Year.

那个东西

“什么东西和尚有但是没有用，太监入宫前有，入宫后没有，华人的比较短，日本人比较长，英国人更长，马来人最长？”

“哦，阿明，难到是“那个东西”？”

“哦，想到哪去了？是名字啦！”

如果有一天

“ 阿明，如果有一天，我和你妈妈跌进海里，你会救谁？”

“废话，当然救你啦！”

“哦，你！不孝子！”

“唉呀，不是不孝啦！我妈妈会游泳的嘛！”

A Tea Under The Moonlight

Long has it been,
For us to have,
A tea under the moonlight.
Busy, everyone was, is, will be,
What's with work, responsibilities, relationships,
Yet, in times like now,
When the end draws near,
Time they spent, altogether,
To talk about lives,
To cherish the wonderful past,
To share successes,
To predict mysterious future,
To admire, those of the bold and the beautiful,
To discuss coming plans,
And, to wonder what changes everyone has.
Fate, by a twist of it,
Tells me, good times do not last long.
Father time, envied us,
Leaving me, wondering when will the next moonlight be?

打电话

一日，小明突然想起小丽，想听听他声音。他打算打个电话给他。不到一分钟，打通了。

他说：“ 喂，小丽啊？请问小丽有在吗？”

阿妈的kuali

一日, 阿妈炒好了饭后想把kuali洗了。可他不会用sabun, 所以才打算用老时代的方法。

他心想：“是用醋和盐还是醋和米呢？”

他跑去问阿明。

阿明说：“ 阿妈啊！当然是盐啦！”

“ 为什么？”

“阿妈啊！加盐加醋嘛！”

I'm Doing......wut?

Holidays. Yeah, it's holidays now. Everybody's happy with it, but I'm not included in that everybody. First, what I have been getting up until now is no other than the most annoying---boredom. Duh, I really don't know what to do! Everyday I will wake up between 1 to 2 p.m., then eat my breakfast-ish lunch, take my bath, switch on my computer and just sit there until the clock hits 6. This is already a routine. Awright, enough with the bad's. Oh ya, thanks to my last exam results, Mom finally found a "job" for me; revise, revise and revise! At least I have something to do now, but fixing my interest in Chemistry is way too easier said than done. Duh~ And thanks to Shonen Jump, now I have a new manga to catch up with. It's called "Bakuman". "baku" means "gamble" and "man" is taken from "manga", making it "a manga gamble" in whole. It follows two high schoolers whose dreams are to become famous manga-ka's, which later turns out not to be as easy as they think. I like it because it tells me of lives of manga-ka's and the hardships they face. Getting a manga drawn doesn't necessarily mean it will get published. And without publication, where manga-ka's going to get their income? Well, that's what happens at Japan, a whole different situation at Malaysia. There are some magazines like GEMPAK, UTOPIA or XUE HAI newspapers that welcome local manga-ka's to submit their work. I want to become a manga-ka someday and I hope my work will get published in those media. Thus, I'm going to practice drawing during these holidays. Being a self-taught manga-ka is quite difficult but there are already some who succeeded. Akira Toriyama, once an office boy, is a self-taught artist, gaining fame with his Dragon Ball. I hope I can be like him someday. Well, someday. Haha, and thanks to my buddy, I could spend some time driving at Kota Bharu. That was one meaningful day, for me, that is. I guess that's it for now, may good things happen soon! Arios~
