Goodbye My Friend




I thought of Spice Girl...

11th September, a crucial day for the americans. A bad tragedy. A shocking event. No one expected it other than the only Osama Bin Laden.
Same goes for me. I didn't expect the day to turn out how it should. Jacqueline leaving, my assignments undone, didn't study for Mid term. Everything is crashing down! Thank god we did a last hour study when we're on the way to college in Jo's Car. It happened that I can answer most of the questions and by luck, we're granted with extensions for the video. All is left is Moral mid term.

I decided to go for the 12.30 moral class instead of the usual 3.30 class. As I went in, I explained to the lecturer. He was shocked and told me that my paper is different from the current class. I told him that it's alright (I had already gone through the questions with a friend from 12.30). He smirked and said, alright.
The questions are hard to tackle and I have not studied so...... I managed to crap 900 words for the first environmental question and the others are just so-so.

There it is....The time has come, I have to rush to the airport.

I'm sorry guys. The question has bugged me sometime, 'Friends or Assignment'.

I answered 'Both' during that time. After some thinking, yes I know I was wrong, I shouldn't acted that way. But I didn't want to miss seeing my 6 years best friend for the last moment! The last time I saw is when we went out for breakfast which is last 2 weeks. I wanted to see her at least the last few days but assignment came which is to overnight at Jo's place.
Another question 'It's not that she won't come back?'

We may not know this question. She might or she might not. I thought she will. Audrey told me the possibilities, I come to think of it, Yes big chances she might not. Will you Jacq?

Receiving the news that the parents are migrating to US/UK and by judging what is attaching her to come back where by the parents are moving? Not just that, let's take a look at the airplane ticket price from Malaysia and UK?
I also imagined that one day, I'll be in Australia or the States, she'll be in Newcastle! It won't be how it used to be. Walking distance to her house. Seeing each other is easy. Going through each of your grow old stage, it's time to realise she won't be there frankly speaking.

Yes, other friends, I can sacrifice for my assignments but Jacqueline Wong? It's hard...

I think all of us actually flooded the whole Kisho Kurokawa's Malay style pitched roofs and palm trees replica, KLIA. Forest Airport. Going there not just to say goodbye but having the whole memory lane flashes through, you realised that she is a friend that you really treasure. A silent friend, just like my comic.


The back shadow that I will not forget. 
The same when she walked towards her flight gate...
We were watching her all the time
With the last wave of Goodbye

Alright, I'm getting teary already...Signing off...

Just Stand Up


Something I found online. This what I'm crazy for at the moment. A song from Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Mary J Blige, Rihanna, Fergie, Sheryl Crow, Natasha Bedingfield, Leona Lewis, Miley Cyrus, Carrie Underwood, Keysia Cole, Ciara and etc. Just Stand Up. It is collaborated with Stand Up to Cancer which will benefit from the proceeds of the single.

I like this part. It reminds me alot of things! I wish it does for you too!

I’m tellin’ you that
Things get better
Through whatever
If you fall, dust it off, don’t let up
Don’t you know you can go be your own miracle
You need to know
If the mind keeps thinking you’ve had enough
But the heart keeps telling you don’t give up
Who are we to be
questioning, wondering what is what
Don’t give up
THROUGH IT ALL, JUST STAND UP!


Someone actually commented on Mariah Carey's verse is short and she don't deserves it because she's the most successful singer among all. Not to forget Beyonce's verse is longer(sings the most) . All I can say is that it's a song dedicated to the cancer fundings. As long as you contribute is already enough. It is just like other 'all stars' songs. Contribution is what matters.

(Although I don't like a particular singer in there which her voice sucks but yeah, the meaning is there)

Yep, A song I'm crazy for and it serves a good meaning in the lyrics too! (Rare situation where I pay attention on lyrics)

Birthday Bash?!


It was the official 20th year since I was born. Everyone kept asking what am I planning to do for my birthday? Clubbing? Throwing a party? Going out? Anything? Exactly! Nothing! I absolutely got no plans for my birthday. Quote Audrey, Come on! It's 08.08.08! Perfect timing for your perfect 20 and which you get out from your Nine'teens' and get into Twen'ty'. Yes! She don't have to remind me that! Being twenty, having a '2' infront of everything and yet that was the first thing comes into my mind on 2008 new years!

The whole week before the actual day with no intentions on celebrating it ended up acting donno and 'buat bodoh' about they are planning to throw me a surprise thing. Which it actually turns out to be an open surprise (I don't understand open and surprise). Their plan was to have a cook out and bring everything over 'sambil' watch Olympics 2008 Opening ceremony.

But all complicated issues were save by mom! Having sponsorship to call Dominos over really did cheer 'The Planners" up! Saving them alot of time on preparing other stuff (I forgotten what?). So does the cake issue! Which solved the main problem...  All is left was just to attend.

I went out shopping that day because salary was out on the day before.  Overall, what I did on my birthday? I shopped till I dropped and drooool! No offences guys! But I do think the whole thing turns out to be I'm the one planning for my birthday which I totally got no intention at all.  What happened was Mom called and requested me to be home EARLY! So that I can prepare everything before everyone arrives.  

I would say total Dang-ness ^^

As I arrived home, I ordered Dominos and they came.  First thing was turning on the Tvo so that we don't miss the Opening Ceremony.  It's kinda sucky when your birthday clashes with the opening ceremony. But it was purely entertaining ^^  Mom demand me to start everything exactly at 8pm 8minutes and 8 seconds! Ambik kau! Along with the opening ceremony! Quote Audrey, All eyes around the world counting down for my birthday.  Not bad eh?
