What I've Been Up To...

Salam..

Really sorry for the lack of updates. =) Have been busy trying to adapt to student mode after being in such a loooooooooong holiday.. Hehe.. Anyway, I don't think this will be a long one, just something to remind you guys, I'm still here. LoL.. So what have I been up to?


1. Go read other people's blog..


Hehe.. So very sorry if I'm a bit late to comment. Since Hilman introduced me to Google Reader, I've been using it, a lot. I think it's very useful in a sense that I can keep track of all my favourite blogs and not miss any new postings. On the comment part, however, hehe, so sorry.. Sometimes I'm in a hurry, so I use this method :

Read first, comment later

Come on, I'm sure you guys have done this before right? <> Hehe.. So don't think I forgot to comment yea, coz maybe I'm late. (in Kamal's case, I've been back-commenting for ages now. Haha.. Thats why you see my comments as the bottom-est one, right? Now you know why.. LoL..


2. Play games.


I'm a fan of Neopets, and have been playing for 6 years now. Haha.. Maybe some would think it's childish or immature, but, the way I see it, playing as a way of releasing tension, not so bad ait? =) There's also a Malaysian guild there, and the regulars are just great! ;-)


3. Download my notes and search for new updates from my lecturer.


We are using this portal for downloading almost all of our lecture notes (notice the 'almost'?) and be aware of announcements from lecturers although the latter is not quite common this semester. =)


4. The others are usual, sleep, online, eat, lecture, read and all.. =)

Just some irrelevant infos : Some of the more special food we're eating these days,

Secret resipe cakes + McD icecream.. Yummy!!

Fried potato chunks.. They are so, so, so, yummy! Hehe.. The insides are soft and 'empuk' and it's fried to golden purr-fection. Didn't have to use 'that' much oil though, so it's safe.. =)

Ten guesses to what this is... Hehe.. Actually, it's called sate minang. How many have tried it? I tell you, it's GOOD!

Dunno what to name it.. It's minced meat lumped together (so it's supposed to resemble beef patty, but, well, it didn't turn out the way it's supposed to.. hehe..) with salads and tomatoes. We ate it with bread if I remember.. ;-) Put some Thousand Island with those freshies, and it's ready to eat.

Well, that's all for now I think. Another thing, have been hanging out with my friends, and bit by bit, they are helping me forget. Hehe.. Thanks to you guys who supported me with all those kind words.

Before I go, just a teaser, see the picture below? Now, can you guess how the plastic bag had become like
that?

Thanks for reading.

Somebody, Someone

Salam..

Reading back the posts I've made at this blog, I noticed that the sad or black tone that constantly fills my earlier blog is missing. Not that I wanted to be sad, but today has been a very trying day.

I'm sad, and I'm confused. Sometimes, when listening to others pouring their problems to people they trust, and watch them slowly recovering, makes me wonder, would I ever do the same? It's hard to remember back to my childhood times if I ever felt so out-of-the-weather. Browsing through the various photo albums in my collection, I can't help but admit, I was happy back then. There's always a smile on my face. But why nowadays it feels so hard just to smile, really smile, without resorting to forced cheerfulness?

Is it so strange to want to go back? Being a child once more, with nothing to worry about. Not about life, not about people, not about myself. Innocence of a child is a very precious thing, now that I think about it. Once you've lost that, you can never take it back again.. But, as adults now, we have to be reasonable. We can't dwell too much on the past. There are a lot of things to worry about, and me being myself, sometimes worrying about something so trivial, take a lot out of me.

Today, I almost cried again. Why do people have to be so cruel? Why can't they think of the consequences of their action? Why couldn't people appreciate all the things others have done for them? Just a simple thing could lead to an all out war, is that really fair?




I'm sorry, really, for letting this out. I want to be a good person, and I want to be patiently going through all the things that sometimes would pull me down. I want to be strong and not succumb to tears everytime things happen the way I did not expect. But, one of those days, I just can't, and this is one of those days. So I did what I usually do, a new poem for my collection. Took me 10 minutes or so, but I think I like it. Hopefully I'll feel much better later today.


Anyway, thanks for reading. And wish me all the best.

Tickles...

Salam..

Suddenly these days I'm feeling much movitated to update this blog of mine.. =) Maybe because of the abundance of time I had nowadays. Not that it would last, so why waste the time, right? Oh well, actually we were supposed to start classes on Monday. I even arrived at 8.00 am because I'm so high-spirited to start back to full gear. But, alas, it wasn't meant to be. Huhu..

As of now, even until yesterday (Friday), the class haven't started yet. So, hopefully, this coming Monday we'll not be disappointed. Hehe.. Not that I'm THAT thrilled to get back to my busy and chaotic student life, but I wanted to fully utilize the time I have and study hard (and play hard, knowing myself) so that I could push my CGPA back up.

=)

Anyway, nothing much actually. It's just that I did this personality-test-thingie and seems like a good thing to share. Here it is :

What's Your Stress Style?

My Result: Soother

You're a Soother. When trouble strikes, you somehow seem to avoid being hit. Those around you may encounter crises, of course — which is when you launch into action. You're best at helping others ease their stress, offering a kind word or a well-timed "everything's going to be okay." You're a walking affirmation!

Of course, wearing a smile all the time can be exhausting. We're all only human, and stress happens to the best of us — including you. When you find yourself under stress, you may have to fight the tendency to shut off the phone, crawl under the blankets, and hide from the world. But it's worth it to show your true feelings, even when they're less than upbeat. Let the people you've nurtured in the past help you out in your time of need. You deserve the attention. And tomorrow is another day! So take it easy.

Take this test >

Haha.. So very true of me.. =)

* * *

Hehe.. Well, before I go, just want to share these images with you guys.. A friend sent them to me last week, and I've been thinking of posting 'em up since then, but couldn't do it before updating about other things first. So, here they are :

Just for your info, that man (looking back, or looking towards the front depending from which side you're looking) is NOT a real man.. It's a painting.. =)

A tote bag.. See the black strap? Is it really there? Hehe.. Again, these are also paintings.. =)

Maybe gravity is reversed inside that lorry............. or not!

I wonder why the police didn't stop this one? LoL.. Again, a painting..

Just for your info, these are in Germany..


Thanks for reading!

Salam..

If you read the title of today's post, I can imagine your knowing grin (or grimace! Lol).. Anyway, a few days (or was it weeks) ago, this friend of mine, tagged me, and it wasn't that hard to do, so here it is :



~ Start Copy ~

Rules :
1. Copy from "Start Copy" until "End of Copy".
2. Before "End of Copy", share your best memories of 2007 include your name and your URL blog.
3. Share this tag to your friends.

For me, the year 2007 had a lot of happiness (and hope for 2008). Happiness because i see my son, grow and grow day by day. I have a great husband. I met lots of new friends from around the world via blogging ^_^ - Juliana RW

In 2007, I become happier than before because my hubby’s got promotion and sure his salary had been increased. This had made my life more comfortable but everything seemed to cost an arm and a leg nowadays. The happiest memory is I see Nelson’s tummy becoming bigger and bigger, he can now count number 1 to number 10, by my guidance. He loves eating and he enjoys every meal. He gives us a lot of happiness by the way he mimic our talking style and making such lovely faces. At first, I was so scared to look after him but now I hope he can be with me all the time. Even I feel tired everyday but I feel my life is meaningful. - Hazel

2007 is quite a productive year for me. I got a new baby (son), now 5 months old and a new car. Career wise, everything is moving smoothly as plan and I'm half way thru my Masters degree and hope will be completed in 2008 and will path a way for me to be a Phd. candidate by end of 2008. A new batch of training and consultancy project is in the pipeline and will start soon. Most importantly my new passion -"blogging" started this year and hopefully will keep growing and blooming. I hope this blogging activity will develop my social networking and friendship with other bloggers. - myfisol

tahun 2007 boleh dikatakan tahun yang agak "terkejut" bagi aku. aku terkejut dengan schedule stadi aku yang kelam kabut. aku terkejut dengan kenyataan lecturer aku depan-depan kelas. aku terkejut dengan maki hamun paling dahsyat pernah aku terima. aku terkejut dengan suara yang mengatakan aku "kutuk bagai nak rak" idola pujaan mereka. dan aku juga terkejut bila ramai yang backup aku. terima kasih banyak untuk itu. aku tak mahu "terkejut" lagi. biarlah tahun 2007 menjadi penutup segala kisah terkejut aku... - aria ayumi


2007 started well I think, with the first memory that happen on the 1st of Jan. there are lots of things happened in 2007 - the fight with roommate - the dean’s list result that I got for last semester (just a bit to get first class) – the extreme expedition to Ledang Mountain - the the short semester that I did to ‘repair’ my grade - the July month - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows - the new crush – Medley Gila - the first fight – the tasks and responsibilities – the biggest project handled, Expoconvo’07 – new friends made – enjoyment and the sadness – all mixed together as one solution, that I think has a lot of sentimental value to me. And also, not to forget, the expanded community of friends to the net through my blog Yang Terdalam…


If I remember back to the beginning of 2007, the first thing I would remember is that I watched the lacklustre performance for the launch of Tahun Melawat Malaysia in RTM1. Hehe.. Oh well, anyway, a lot of things happen, be it in studies, in life, relationships with friends, so on and so forth. In 2007, I began to understand better the world I live in. I began to understand myself and began accepting people as they are. I learn to be more open, and open up to people around me. Accepting the responsibilities bestowed on me, being a leader, being someone who people can trust, learn to communicate better and handling various problems that comes my way. I learn to anticipate people, and learn to forgive, though I don't think I would ever forget. My house got broken into, my results fluctuated before going up again, only to fall down in the end. Blogged more than the year before, watched a LOT of movies than before, and made new friends along the way. Received my license (yay, I'm not a probational driver anymore!!), started my own poems. Live through my 21st birthday and went to Kuantan for the field trip (such a informational trip, that was). Have a great Aidilfitri and Aidiladha, went for a vacation in the East Coast (even though the floods are raging at that time) and lastly, moved my blog here, in Hearts in Two!


~ End of Copy ~


Ooookaay, so I think you can guess what is coming, but, hehe, I think it might not be what you think. Instead of tagging my other friends, like I'm supposed to, I don't think I'll do that.

Why?

Because, kamal already tagged those I had in mind. Hehe.. So, if you're interested to make one, please, do join in.

=)

With that said, this concludes my first post this year. Stay tuned!



And thanks for reading..
