From Me To You

For All Of Y'all Who Are In My Contacts List But Wasn't Signed In To MSN On The Christmas Day And Its Eve, Here's What I Intended To Send To You Guys.

The 25th marks the year's last week,
Reminding us of what we seek,
No need for a New Year's Resolution,
When we know our goals with great precision.

Though no winter snow shall blanket these lands,
There are others that we mould with our hands,
Values and virtues so abstract,
And the prosperity that we'd attract.

As we go on our shopping spree,
As others decorate their Christmas tree,
After all these times maybe we knew,
We've found true friends we can always turn to.

As time goes on with its unending flow,
We bring out smiles and wipe off tears.
May our friendship continue to grow,
For many more passing years.

If troubled times come to you,
Let me tell you a thing or two;
Just like how we'd recover from a flu,
Friends can be your medicine too.

Although unpaired with the best of foods,
We can still be high in the festive mood,
Though much has happened, do not fret,
All the bad shall soon be reset.

A new year comes in 7 days time,
As we wait patiently for spring's wind chime,
We shan't wait for the faithful day,
Without fun and games to play.

I'm sorry for this if it is true,
That among the many friends to you,
I am not the very first,
To wish you a very Merry Christmas.

So Now, With The Day Drawing Closer To Its End, Let Me Be The Last One Today To Wish You A Very Merry Christmas.

Adieu To Y'all. Haven't Slept Well For The Past 2 Days. Time To Catch Up With The Beauty Sleep.

Blessing In Disguise

Especially When You Personally Know That You Feel Extremely Good When You're In Deep Shyt.
Ahh.... Tuesday...

Got A Ride To And From Campus Coz Of Jaz's SRC Meeting (sent Me There On The Way) And Joshua Sending Me Back Home. No Exercise For The Day!!! And Though The Presentation For Our Webpage Design Wasn't One Of The Most Important Ones, I Actually Felt Most Alive During That One Compared To The Others This Sem, For Now. It Felt Almost As Enjoyable As Public Speaking's 10 Mins Last Sem.

Got Back Home And Drifted To Fantasy All The Way Till 8. The Worst Part Of That? Someone Caused Me To Not Have The Usual Dinner Of A Tuesday. Apology Not Accepted For The Crapiest Excuse Of Being Too Busy. Too Busy And You Forget About ONLY ME!? When OTHERS Get Their Orders Taken!?

Not That I Am At A Loss Or Anything. Because Of The Irresponsibility I Get To Gain My Beauty Walk Of The Day (Exercise!!!). Walked All The Way To SS2's McD With Crappy Imaginations Running Through My Brain And Talking To Self On The Way. When I Got There, I Ordered What I'd Usually Order When Chinese New Year Is Around The Corner: Prosperity! And I Really 'Prospered' That Day Because They Gave Me A Large Milo Unstead Of The Usual Soft Drink. Earned At Least RM2 In The Drink's Worth.

Got Home And Watched Nodame Cantabile All The Way Till 2am+, And Only Stopped Because My Com Battery Was Running Low. No Doubt I Suffered The Next Day, But It Was Worth Every Headache Moment In The Lecture Halls XD.

Christmas Eve Was All About Shopping And Fooling Around. Mid Valley And Times Square Got Explored And Turned Upside Down. And Got Home While Some Others Left Again For The Christmas Countdown. And I Obviously Ended Up Watching Nodame Cantabile Again.

To The Irresponsible One, Please Do Not Repent And Become Responsible For If You Do, I'd Lose My Beauty Walk And Not Get More Than What I Paid For. Lovin McD SS2... Heheheh.

Adieu To All And A Very Merry Christmas XD

The Equation

Here It Goes...
Dehydration + Heat Stroke + Excessive Worrying = The Worst Migraine In My Life To Date.
Yeah, That Was Last Friday.

Arrived At Campus To Find Out That Our Lecturer Will Be Late Again, So I Watched Some Crappy Movie That Gavin Just Downloaded About How Some Ants That Were Affected By Some Extra-Terrestrial Element Became Violently Cannibalistic And Started Attacking Humans.
Class Went On As Usual Except That I Noticed That She Was Her 'Friendlier' Self Like During The First Two Classes She Ever Lectured Us Since The Week Before. At The End Of The Class, She Announced That She Wouldn't Be A Part Of UTAR Soon. Whether She Quit Or Was Made To Quit Was Beyond Me But, Being Cheerful Only In The First 2 And Last 2 Classes With Your Students? Is That What It Means To Be A Diffuser Of Knowledge To You? If You Quit Willingly, Why Even Bother Going Back To The Old, Preferred Self Of Yours? If You Got Fired, Isn't That Reverting A Little Too Late? Well, Whatever Your Situation And Reasons, Thanks A Lot For Being The One To Give Us The Knowledge We Needed In Passing The First Sem And In Going Through The Second.

Got Home For 3 Rounds Of DotA. When That Was Done I Took My Bath, And When I Got Out Of The Bathroom I Started Feeling Like The Left Part Of My Brain Was Being Forked, Not To Mention The Insane And Sudden Heat Wave. Took A Nap, Or At Least Tried To, With The Intense Heat, The Forked Brain And All. Beats Me How Time Passed So Quickly With The Miserable Pain That Was So Constant It Felt As If Time Got Pegged.

Finished A 500ml Bottle Of Water In 10 Seconds To Find Out That I Was Indeed Dehydrated, As Suggested By Mom. The Remedy Worked For Only 10 Minutes Though, And The Unnecessary Worry And Envy I Felt For Who Knows Why Really Did Its Part In Making Me Feel Worse Than I Already Do.

Saturday Began With Me Sleeping At Well Past 1am And Waking Up At Slightly After 7. Self Induced Insomnia Or Something Stacked With A Perfectly Working Biological Alarm Clock Is A Combination You Don't Want To Have Even If Someone Gives You A Million Bucks For That, Believe Me. Morning Passed Dully With Me Falling Asleep Again Around Noon. Went For Some Dinner With Father's Side Of The Family For Some Chinese Festival Celebrating The Passing Of Winter Or Something Like That, Only To Be Disappointed That The Star Of The Day Was Not Served.

Sunday Was Another Problematic Day With The Said Insomnia Controlling The First 2 Hours Of My Day. That's Not The Worst Part. My Ride Back To PJ Left Without Me, Assuming That I Came Back To Cheras Without Them I'll Also Go Back To PJ The Same Way. Had To Trouble Father To Drive Me All The Way Here... Sorry Dad. Was Quite Interesting Though; Had A Lengthy Discussion With A 1/2 Malay 1/2 Chinese Gaming Friend Of Mine Who Is Another, Err.... 'Non-Believer', Shall We Say. The Topic? Race And Religion. The Details May Offend People So I'll Keep Them To Myself. Good To Know That There Are Others Who Think As I Do Though, And From The Most Unlikely Bunch Of People At That.

Monday!!!
Today!!!
Started With 'Nodame Cantabile', An Anime-Made-To-Drama That Was Both Musical And Hilarious, In The Sense That It Kept The Extremes Of Its Anime Counterpart As Comical Reliefs. Sociology Would've Been Fun For The Discussions And Debate On Age Discrimination And Stuff Like That, But Unfortunately There's Just Someone There To 'Potong Stim', Making Our Poor Lecturer Change Topics Before Too Much Of The Wrong Type Of Heat Was Generated. Intentionally Skipped Web Page Design Tutorial Due To The Fact That Many Were Doing The Same. Ended Up Messing Around With A Bunch Of Friends In Jaya One And Getting Home As If We Never Skipped Class. Dinner Time Was Exciting. Went To Murni For The 1st Time In My Miserable 1/2 Year In PJ And Was Stuffed Full With Some Really Awesome Food.

Self Evaluation Based On The 7 Deadly Sins:

Pride: The Deadliest Of Them All, Committed 1st Among The 7 By Everyone, Maybe As Early As A Second After Birth, And A Sin Which Brought Me As Much Happiness As It Brought Me Pain.

Lust: Probably The Most Interesting Of Them To Me. I Am Guilty Of It Without Realizing It, And When I Do, I'm The Only One That's Hurt. Of All The Sins, I Am Most Guilty Of This One.

Wrath: A Victim Of It Everyday, With Its Degree Of Fatality Varying Unpredictably.

Sloth: Yeah, Insomnia Will Really Add On The Spice You Don't Really Need Onto This. People Out There Who Wanna Stay Up Late, Don't Do It. You Wouldn't Like The Results.

Gluttony: Stress Will Do This To You, Especially When You Are Stressed And Have This Same Belief As I That Eating Reduces Stress. It Works Until You Stop Eating Though.

Greed: Not Much To Elaborate, Is There? Let's Just Say That Like Everyone Else, Money Pulls My Focus Away From What Matters Most At Many Times.

Envy: The Latest I Put Myself Into. Recently I Get Envious Of The Simplest, Slightest And Most Unimaginable Reasons.

Phew...
Well, That's For Today. Adieu To Y'all. I'm Off To Plan For A Literally Black And White Day Tomorrow.

Madness Has Its Benefits, So Does Societal Mayhem

When 'Introduction To Sociology' May Be On The Not-So-Interesting Side During Lectures Maybe Because Of Our Lecturer's Not-So-Good 'Mass Communication' Skillz, Tutorial Sessions Really Began To Get Interesting Since The Assignment Presentations Began. For Every Topic, People (At Least The More Outgoing Ones, In Which I Recently Joined) Voice Out Their Opinion On Those Topics And Actually Leave Others With Food For Thought At The End Of The Session. If Only These Topics Were Debated And Views On Them Shared Earlier, It Wouldn't Be A Surprise If At Least 10 Of The 24 Students Of TB1 Scored Full Marks For The Sociology Midterm Test, And Ultimately 100% For The Subject Overall By February 2009. No Joke.

Maybe This Applies Only To Sociology For Now, But People Get More Into Things That They Can Freely Be A Part Of And At The Same Time, Choose Not To Be A Part Of. May Sound Complicated But You Get What I Mean. Like, When You're Free To Express Your Own View And Experiences Without Any Restriction And Others Saying You Are A Freak Or Something For Thinking The Way You Think. Maybe You Just Have To Get Involved In Something Without Serious Commitment To Start Liking Something.

And Yes, I Somewhat Proudly Announce That I Am The Living Essence Of Feck (Okay, Its Not What You Think It Is. Try Understanding It From A Scottish Perspective).
Why?
Because I Mangle, Twist And Turn Myself Upside Down And How People Perceives The Word 'Feck' Changes With It. Proud? Kind Of... With Some Insecurity Attached.

Time To Introduce A Downgraded Version Of A Close To Perfect Thing Into A Far From Perfect World. Reaching For The Stars? Maybe Not Just Reach... Its Like Nero Trying His Devil Bringer On The Sun Or Gene Trying His Chain Yanker On Pluto, Literally. Can't Picture It? Go Play Devil May Cry 4 And GodHand.

I Now Bid Thee Adieu Before I Bring Myself To The Deepest Depths Of Hell And Attempt To Yank Myself Back Out, And Maybe Leave Some People With The Label Of 'ArseHoles' On Their Foreheads There. Masochistic, Sadistic Me...

P/S: Mr Yaw, You Owe This Heaven Its Very First Set Of Pictures~~~!!!@@@

Rush (72) Hour(s)

3 Days Of Insufficient Sleep And Piles Of Assignment Work To Complete Says All, Not To Mention The 3-Times-A-Year Event: The 3-Day Pikom PC Fair Exactly On Those 'Faithful' Days. The Only Time You'd Need Insomnia And Not Feel Like A Zombie Out Of The Resident Evil Series In The End.

Thanks To That, My Just-Fixed Phone Was Dusting At A Corner, Along With My Metallic, Music Producing Fish. But After The Heat Dies Down, I Find Myself Indulging In Another Online Game And Cant Seem To Get Over The Addiction Now. Makes Me Wonder Why Did I Even Bother Trying It Out In The First Place.

More Assignments Due In 2 Weeks Time, Either Presentations Or Some Darn 'Simple' Paperwork That Will No Doubt Be Procrastinated Further Until Who Knows When. Who Was I Trying To Fool With 'Cross The Bridge When I Get There'? Hell, I Have No Idea Why I Even Said That Now. To Put It Simply, PLAN OR DIE!!! Who Knows If Something's Gonna Happen To The Bridge And It Becomes Uncrossable By The Time You Get There?

Maybe There Should Be A Philosophical Corner Here Where People Share Their Views Of The World With The Rest, Huh?

In Any Case, Holidays Are Catching Up, So Are Assignment Deadlines. Because Of That, Every Now And Then I Hear People Talking To Themselves While Bathing In Preparation For Their Talk Show (Well, At Least It Beats Singing) And Others Acting So Unlike Themselves I'm Forgetting How Do They Usually Behave. Same Goes For Me; My Emotional Roller-Coaster Is Getting Wilder And People Around Me Think I'm Crazy When I'm On A High And When I'm Down, It's No Longer The Usual 'I Don't Have The Time To Give A F***' But Worse. How So? I'll Leave That to Your Own Imagination. Or Maybe Even Your Memory For That Matter.

Quote Of The Day:
"Just like me liking lightning when it doesn't strike me and is far enough for me to marvel at its beauty. Romance just like that to me. It's lovely in books. Ugly, in reality."

Le-Anne Teo Wey Herng
There's More I'd Like To Add To That, But Since I'm Not The First To Actually Say It Out Of My Mind, I'll Pass For Now.

Speaking Of Pass... Maybe I'll Pass By Dreams Of Some Others Like How It Coincidentally Happened Few Weeks Back.

Sweet Dreams To Y'all, For Its Already 2:20 In The Morning -.-'

Human Traffic/Flood

They Say Never Go To A Malaysian Pikom PC Fair On Its Last Day Because That's When Prices Are Dirt Cheap And You'll Be Stampeded To Death...

Maybe 'They' Forgot The Word 'Especially' In Between 'Fair' And 'On'. Why? Its The Second Day Today And I Was Already Stampeded To A Point Where I Do Not Recognize My Own Clothes; And Worst Of All, Bought Nothing From There -.-'

What Was I Actually After? Either Stuff I Already Have That Don't Need To Be Replaced Yet, Things I Thought Was Necessary But Was Not Because My Phone's Fixed, Stuff That Were Not Sold There And Things That I Wanted But Couldn't Get A Bargain I Expected From A Fair. Well, At Least My Phone's Fixed (Finally, After Being Delayed For At Least 3 Weeks). Besides, I'm Broke Already And It's Barely Halfway Through The Month!!! Budget Went Boom And I Am Currently Spending My Savings Like Drinking Water And Leeching Off Excessive Blood. Your Legs Tired From Walking Through The Jam-Packed Crowd? Try What I Went Through Before That AND Going Through The Crowd. Then You'll Know What 'Tired' Actually Means, Not To Mention Sleeping Between 3-4 In The Morning And Waking Up At Around 8 On The Same Day...

Made Up Quote Of The Day: If You're Talkin' About Me, Then I'll Have Something To Tell You.

Nights To Y'all

18 + 22 = 2 Birthdays Back-To-Back

Yup. The Days Were The 10th +11th Of December, To 2 Dear Friends Of Mine. And Yes; They Were The Ones I Dedicated Life To That Almost Brought My Own Death. Don't Worry, Its Not Your Fault. Its Just That There Was This Sudden Torrent Of Inspiration That I Couldn't Afford To Cut Off.

Hmm... Do I Elaborate...?

Maybe Not. I Doubt Those Who Were Involved With The Preparation Would Ever Forget What We Did, Big Or Small. But Still, One Thing Must Be Said. The One On The 10 Is Definitely The Grandest TB1 Has Ever Seen, Kind Of Proves How Important You Are To The Class, Doesn't It? Feel The Pride; It's No Sin For This Occasion XD. And For The One On The 11th, I'm Sure The Others Planned Something Big, But Unfortunately Your Finals Were Kind Of In The Way. Anyway, Congrats For Enduring 18 And 22 Years Of Pain And Suffering While Enjoying Said Years Of Happiness And Joy, Respectively.

Since This Will Almost Surely Be Read After The Said Dates, I Would Like To Wish An Infinitely Happy Belated 18th Birthday To Leanne Teo And Another Infinitely Happy Belated 22nd Birthday To Abby Low. May All Your Wished For The Remaining Days Of The Year And The Many Years To Come Be Granted.
