If pillows could talk

short talk : the followers widget at the bottom right of this page is finally up and running! on the downside however, its empty :(  so do me a favour by 'attaching' yourself there ;) thank you very much! :)


this morning as i walked quietly in the park a block away from my house, i saw a kid, no more than five years of age, whizzed by in his colourful plastic tricycle. it was really cute and i hesitated for a moment before decided to take a picture of him but that was before the arrival of his dad that made me pocketed my phone into my back pocket. at some point i know its disrespectful to do so in public, with a closed minded society we lived in, who knows what will happen next if i proceed to hit the shutter button. in any event, the wheels of the colourful plastic tricycle might come off flying my way which i truthfully rather that did not happened. so i spared the boy off a moment of humiliation as i continue walking off the path that leads right to a bench. i sat and couldnt help myself from noticing the boy with his dad.

as he played with the other kids, his dad bought him ice cream and handed to him, which he devoured it whole clumsily within seconds. his dad helped him in cleaning up a little before he jumped off to the pile of soft sand he was playing with his other playmates with his dad keeping a watchful eye from a distance. what a perfect sunday morning   :)

before i knew it, it was already 9.30 in the morning and the sun began to reveal itself in a way that it ignored the hell out of me. and just like that, i wasted another morning observing other people instead of just went jogging like i initially planned. to hell with jogging in the morning...especially when my head is still under the pillow with the air condition tuned to 15 degrees. how the hell can i wake up from all this shit and go jogging?

The scent of dead things

earfood : butterfly fly away, miley cyrus

often we'll find ourselves lost, stumbled upon something we didnt know what to do with it or just merely at a crossroad with absolutely no sense of direction whatsoever. this is the part where it will scare the shit right out of us. no worries though. shit happens. shit happens to all of us. right now, im lying comfortably on my bed, just lingering about, with the headphones plugged in so hard and dont give a fuck about the sound of children crying two doors away. i just got back from a place i called home for past 18 months and i fell bad. gone are the days where we had all the fun we could together. the good, the bad and also the ugly. the good, the bad, the crazy and also the fucked up. well its just part and parcel of life. friends, they come and go. its that simple. sometimes it took me forever to convince myself that but the evidence deemed otherwise. urghh. nevermind i guess. i left. theres no turning back now. no i wont look back. sigh. in a completely unrelated note, the internet back here is stupendous! i can actually breathe while i blog. theres absolutely no need to go open 4-5 pages at once, go make coffee and get back to check which page has loaded completely only to find out none. gone are the days. also, i left my shoe back in college. the stench was unbearable, thanks to my dear friend. he successfully poured river trout inside it. now it smelled like dead mongoose. first and foremost, i hate the scent of dead things...

Its a wrap!

caluk may 08 session officially ended on nov 20th with chin's birthday bash in poppy! :)

Three Two One, Go!

last night was literally a night of red hot chili peppers, no doubt! a few weeks ago, the seven of us decided that it will be somehow fun that we compete against each other in a race on who finishes a bowl of hot spicy pan mee or better known as 'mah lat pan mee' first. the rules were pretty simple : the first one who finishes his bowl (to the last drop) wins. next, only drinks ordered before the pan mee arrived are allowed. finally, the last guy who still has some soup (even a drop) loses and pays for everything on the table ;)

a majority of us have already tried the pan mee before and all of us came up with different stories. some said that it wasnt that spicy and consumable. others viewed that evil takes the form of the bowl of pan mee and its gonna burn the shit out of you etc etc but one thing's for sure, we all agreed that this race is gonna be very challenging.., and sweaty :)

here's a shot of the pan mee :

a close-up shot :

looks innocent eh? wait till you taste the first drop of the soup on your tongue. it burns the shit out of you! i shit you not! :)




anyway, here's the full video. enjoy!
p/s : please do enjoy our suffering ;)

lame jokes attempt

due to insufficient brain cells to write a brand new entry, i'll share this with you guys instead. its kinda outdated but still manages to crack me up a little. enjoy! directly copied from here

COSTELLO CALLS TO BUY A COMPUTER FROM ABBOTT
ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you?
COSTELLO: Thanks. I’m setting up an office in my den and I’m thinking about buying a computer.
ABBOTT: Mac?
COSTELLO: No, the name’s Lou.
ABBOTT: Your computer?
COSTELLO: I don’t own a computer. I want to buy one.
ABBOTT: Mac?
COSTELLO: I told you, my name’s Lou.
ABBOTT: What about Windows?
COSTELLO: Why? Will it get stuffy in here?
ABBOTT: Do you want a computer with Windows?
COSTELLO: I don’t know. What will I see when I look in the windows?
ABBOTT: Wallpaper.
COSTELLO: Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.
ABBOTT: Software for Windows?
COSTELLO: No. On the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What have you got?
ABBOTT: Office.
COSTELLO: Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything?
ABBOTT: I just did.
COSTELLO: You just did what?
ABBOTT: Recommend something.
COSTELLO: You recommended something?
ABBOTT: Yes.
COSTELLO: For my office?
ABBOTT: Yes.
COSTELLO: OK, what did you recommend for my office?
ABBOTT: Office.
COSTELLO: Yes, for my office!
ABBOTT: I recommend Office with Windows.
COSTELLO: I already have an office with windows! OK, lets just say I’m sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal. What do I need?
ABBOTT: Word.
COSTELLO: What word?
ABBOTT: Word in Office.
COSTELLO: The only word in office is office.
ABBOTT: The Word in Office for Windows.
COSTELLO: Which word in office for windows?
ABBOTT: The Word you get when you click the blue “W”.
COSTELLO: I’m going to click your blue “w” if you don’t start with some straight answers. OK, forget that. Can I watch movies on the Internet?
ABBOTT: Yes, you want Real One.
COSTELLO: Maybe a real one, maybe a cartoon. What I watch is none of your business. Just tell me what I need!
ABBOTT: Real One.
COSTELLO: If it’s a long movie I also want to see reel 2, 3 & 4. Can I watch them?
ABBOTT: Of course.
COSTELLO: Great! With what?
ABBOTT: Real One.
COSTELLO: OK, I’m at my computer and I want to watch a movie. What do I do?
ABBOTT: You click the blue “1″.
COSTELLO: I click the blue one what?
ABBOTT: The blue “1″.
COSTELLO: Is that different from the blue w?
ABBOTT: The blue “1″ is Real One and the blue “W” is Word.
COSTELLO: What word?
ABBOTT: The Word in Office for Windows.
COSTELLO: But there’s three words in “office for windows”!
ABBOTT: No, just one. But it’s the most popular Word in the world.
COSTELLO: It is?
ABBOTT: Yes, but to be fair, there aren’t many other Words left. It pretty much wiped out all the other Words out there.
COSTELLO: And that word is real one?
ABBOTT: Real One has nothing to do with Word. Real One isn’t even part of Office.
COSTELLO: STOP! Don’t start that again. What about financial bookkeeping? You have anything I can track my money with?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: That’s right. What do you have?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: I need money to track my money?
ABBOTT: It comes bundled with your computer.
COSTELLO: What’s bundled with my computer?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: Money comes with my computer?
ABBOTT: Yes. No extra charge.
COSTELLO: I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much?
ABBOTT: One copy.
COSTELLO: Isn’t it illegal to copy money?
ABBOTT: Microsoft gave us a license to copy Money.
COSTELLO: They can give you a license to copy money?
ABBOTT: Why not? THEY OWN IT!
A FEW DAYS LATER . . .
ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you?
COSTELLO: How do I turn my computer off?
ABBOTT: Click on “START”…….

1.4 : Regale

"Tonight we'll dine in hell , wherever's affordable!" , crapped by Jason, 2009

its rather picturesque than wordy. plus, i dont need a pen. how cool?! the best part? i can have anything i wanna shove in my cakehole! heh ;) although its nearly 10 months old, it still meant something to me ;)

Its euphoric yet an euphemeral gloom

i can hear butterflies in my ears...and distant melancholies lurking somewhere inside my mind. a storm's coming and tidal waves are gonna rip right through me. i saw that coming, alright?





some time during a charity concert years ago, some dude walked up to me and offered me some drugs. it came right off my shit hole. i shit you not...

totally random

1.3 Fubar

its official! the results are out! or at least i know how its gonna end up... :)


.....to all who guessed correctly what the title means will earn themselves a free lunch tomorrow. kidding ;) kthnxbai

1.2 The Ice Cream Man

at first i have drafted an entry with the same title and accidentally posted it - hah how convenient. it was totally something different from what i actually intended to write about but i really dont care anymore. the reason is overwhelming, take for instance im not the psychotic bastard who talks about healthcare in some gross tv show or do a 180 while jumping off a 10' pole at the same time attempts to backflip, im just seeing things recently. beautiful things that reflects all the setbacks that we faced, facing and will be facing one day.

im not exactly angry right now. because when im angry, i do stupid things. this is certainly not on my anger checklist

you know there were times when we do something which could leads us recalling the moments of our childhood? moments where mostly laughs than tears? moments where we wished to hell we get to see again before it flashes before our very eyes when we're on our deathbeds? i'll be damned if i say i dont.

over the week, im had fun. fun that was too little compared to of what i had back those days. fun where we just do what we fell like doing. it was like just me against the world back then. we couldnt care less about the world we're living in, the rules of society, the no touching rules etc etc when we're younger. it was just fun. pure fun.

i remember back then, we were forced to set up the table every evening for dinner and we'll be murmuring about how unfair life is bla bla bla. occasionally, we'll be rewarded some extra change after we're done setting up the table and then, off to the front of the house, waiting patiently for the bell of the ice cream man to be heard. sometimes, mom would be so furious that she'll lock us out for enjoying ice creams instead of her hardworked cooked dinner, which we portrayed no interest in whatsoever. at the end of the day, it was dad to the rescue. opening the door for us. then we'll just run upstairs and hide in the closet. :)

and now its 13 years later, i still hope that i get the chance to wait patiently at the front of the house, still waiting for the ice cream man to come.....

Reality check!

Mood : Bounce :)
Ear food : Hot N Cold, by [rMxzZ]

.............or at least until i feel the need to change it again ;)

time for myself, finally : checked!
hey, baggage claim wasnt that bad after all.....

Epilogue

Mood : At ease...
Ear food : In the house, In a heartbeat, John Murphy

I'm boarding a sleeper train heading south, deep into the woods, away from all the treadmills with absolutely nothing on my mind for the time being. The uneven tracks in relation with the hefty load of the whole train rocks the carriage up and down from time to time and flickers with the nothingless inside my mind. From the deck, I can almost see the back of the train as it sways into the woodlands, long winding trail of never ending greens with sounds of eerie critters roaming the surface of the ground. I speak out softly and catch my breath from the window,"I'm sorry", for what she ask, for everything I supposed.

Eventually, the train comes to a standstill and the sounds of footsteps from the sleep-deprived travelers and carriage bags brushing against the cozy seats caught my attention momentarily. I am looking out of the window now : I see people. Many who are walking slowly towards the end of the platform as if they are waiting for someone, or rather something. Out of the randomness of life, the conductor walks towards me and whisper something into my ear. At the very first, I am lost within the sounds of the engine boiling and the sounds of little girls crying but later on, I realised I have reached my destination and so, I flip my iPod switch off and head to the exits. I can see an overcast sunlights. With no absolute brightness but somehow it felt warm. Indescribable. Don't care. Crowded.

As I walk on the cleared path in the woodlands, I recall the moments where I had a great time. It was totally awesome, undeniably. I thought to myself, "I can't see the future right now, nor try to predict what it's gonna be but rest assured I will work hard to see it myself one day. One day".

Inside my thoughts there are numerous, if not rants, complains but when I come to grips with what I am supposed to be doing now, I forgo. I just go with it.

"What's next?" The cabin I supposed. I traveled across the globe just to put off some weight on my shoulders and there is absolute no reason for me to visit the city, I guess. The markers are gone, perished. Probably eaten by wild animals or just decayed into the ground. No indication on where I am and where I should be going. I'm lost. GPS? No satellite coverage. Figures. Stars? The sun is still up.

"The trail!"

Leads me deep into the heart of the woods. With totally no evidence of human existence. I couldn't care less. I am there.

In the cabin, there is dust all over the furniture. It's a little dilapidated but no worries, it'll work just fine. I rest my body on the couch and couldn't care less of what is happening out there. Because tomorrow I am gone...


.....but I really don't wanna travel around the world and come back with a picture. I wanna come back with a story.

Roti Banjir Commercial, or not.....

So, what do 10 sets of ball do at the mamak at 5 in the morning?
This is what we came up with.....heh ;)



Click here for an edited version.

On a totally unrelated note, I found a video of me that my friends and I made a couple of years back!! Ahhh the memoriess, sweeeeeet. I miss you guys! :( Anyway, here it goes ;



enjoy ;)

Charcoal-lat'

I feel like writing a wordy post this morning, no particular reason whatsoever....plus the events accounted for since two weeks ago seems lifeless enormously due to the fact that I'm having my finals these days so there's really nothing I can talk/do about.
So I managed to find some time of my own to generate a list of things I felt compelled to spill out :

1. A stupid argument broke out some time during the course of last month and the result of it forms a huge awkwardness wrath amongst ourselves which lasted till today.
2. I accidentally put on my 4 months old contacts instead of the new one before I went for my statistic paper yesterday morning. I couldn't help it all my contacts cases are identical!
3. It's been a while since I sat at the big screen. Too much things to do, too little time.
4. Am having my speaking/listening/understanding paper this saturday. I'm more than ready for it. I used to keep this facade that I'm scared of it, but actually I don't. I mean, it's just papers, right?
5. I wanna write about 'My top 5 treat list' win myself a dell inspiron! However, I got no idea where to start. I searched for other entries for reference but I really don't wanna get slapped by another plagiarism accusation.
6. I'm really into youtube now. It's addictive. And it's evil.
7. We all really thwarted our post-exam sleeps by the constant visits to the cc. I can't even begin to describe how hostile I can be when you wake me up in the middle of my sleep. Especially when I don't have enough sleep.
8. Am really into Sara Bareilles! I'd like to think that she's really great ;)
9. Really looking forward for our coming penang road trip. We're gonna do the usual penang obligations ; ckt, laksa and early morning wake-ups.
10. Twitter rocks! I can tweet anytime, anywhere I want! It's the constant need of updating status got me so addicted.
11. Yesterday's storm messed my room up pretty bad. It perfectly landed the ashtray on the floor next to my pile of books. Not to mention Eddy's laptop nearly flew out the door.
12. I need a break from all the insanity :(
13. Ohh by the way, my contact lenses's box successfully transfigured into an ashtray. And yes, it was the same one that decorated my floor. *smugs*
14. I need to practice more to capture great shots. And I need a new camera!
15. I'm sorry if I brag too much about my life. Anyway, more post on food coming real soon. Stay tuned ;)

Rest...

It's just papers...
Really?
