Freaking True

I Miss Australia! Sydney, in particular. Last year, it wasn't this bad but now, the feeling of wanting to leap free and just be crazy is getting wilder.

Remember our late nights laughing at our crazy Indian neighbours? When I went out at 2am in only my kaftan to scold them yang memekak watching World Cup Cricket?

Remember the borderline suicidal coffee addiction? We would crank up mugs and mugs of coffee every day plus frequenting Marxine and Gloria Jeans?

Remember just chilling at Sydney Harbour? The bus rides on the bridge that we ultimately got the "whatever" feeling after a while?

Remember the constant careful with food concern? The compass we brought everywhere? The craziest spots we've prayed at?

Remember Hang Tuah? Dan O'Brien? Ilija? Verna (heh!)? Pamela? Darcy? Jean? Sue? Rod?

Remember all the walks in the parks we've enjoyed? All the dogs that chased us along the way? All the people who glared because we were different?

I do remember and it's all good looking back into it now. Let's balik, guys.

I Just Knew That...

* I am a walrus*
* All of the nutrients of the food I eat goes to my hair hence why I am still thin despite the amount of food I consume*
* I am short*
* I sometimes look like Freida Pinto, especially when my eyes get bigger*
* I look my best in high heels*
* I can find a surrogate mother*
* I should not buy a Satria Neo*
* I can be myself and still be comfortable*

Thank You for Letting Me Know and Be All These :)

For S.A.F: A Note On Friendship

It sailed,
For distance that we could never have foreseen,
On the seven seas of glory and misfortune,
Where the tide rocks our world constantly,
Prodding us into a whirlwind of love,
Making us oblivious to the world,
The land of unwhispered dreams,
That we only dared to keep away,
Tightly sealed in the pocket of shame…

It sailed,
For seasons that we could have never framed,
In million eons of grandeur and austerity,
Where the clocks refuse to tick anymore,
Wheeling us into a cyclone of trust,
Making us naïve to the world,
The realm of craved visions,
That we adhered to in sleepless days,
Fulfilling the imaginary wishes…

It sailed,
And it will never stop sailing,
As we have stayed here now,
Even if we moved in different ways,
The wind and seas will conspire to lead us,
Into each other’s way over and over again,
For it sailed and sailed…

And Grammar Shall Prevail.

Bloody Vows

*Update Blog Everyday* (X)
*Finish Marking ALL Papers* (X)
*Finish Reading Glass Palace by Amitav Ghosh* (X)
*Buy the complete Pandu Puteri get up* (X)
*Spend or make time for everybody equally* (X)
*Buy more hijabs* (/)

I made a few vows for this school holiday (Refer to List Above). Only one tick out of 6? Loser...

Why is it so damn hard to stick to them? Everyone demands certain type of attention. It is quite arduous to ensure I get to live up to certain expectations.

Arrggh.. stop bitching already. I need to get ready to meet up with my fans in another 30 minutes (i'm in the land of Hannah Montana kot). Ciao~

Thank God for these!

Addiction

addiction (n) devotion: great interest in something to which a lot of time is devoted

I crave for the sweet scent that vests your skin,
Of that languid eyes where you shine in dreams,
The little bubbles of joy people enjoy in scenes,
Where your hopes guides me in my deep sleep,
Free of all expectations and sense of beings..

I yearn for the after mornings of smiles abound,
Of the natural shrouds of vanilla happiness,
The inexplicable escape of the caged feelings,
Where your thoughts releases me from my worries,
Emancipated from all doubts and sorries...

And you ask me why I'm addicted to you?
When the answer is evident only in you.

36th HKSBP 2009

INTEK just participated in the English Debate and Bahas Bahasa Melayu Hari Kecemerlangan Sekolah Berasrama Penuh (HKSBP) held in the scorching hot SSP of Cyberjaya. We managed to win two motions but lost to Sekolah Sultan Alam Shah who represented Group I into Round 2. It was a great and once in a lifetime experience as next year onwards, HKSBP will be done in zones instead of nationals.

Whatmore, this year onwards HKSBP has adopted the UIAM style of debating where the motion and position will only be given an hour before the debate commences. So, INTEK will have to work extra hard to qualify and we're gonna start now. No point waiting until the 11th hour to create wonders if we can do it now. INTEK will be aiming to create a strong generation of future debaters with the help of our current debaters. Insya Allah, we can give a tough fight and establish ourselves as the better ones.

On a slightly different note, out of all the schools I've watched debating, my personal preference would be Sekolah Menengah Sains Seremban (SASER) boys. I watched them as the government debating against Sekolah Menengah Sains Muar (SAMURA) and they nailed the motion to their side quite amazingly (considering the motion was "Celebrities Make Good Politicians"). The second and third speaker (Muhammad Afiq and Megat Ridzwan, respectively) were especially good. For me, an efficient and good debater can be differentiated from the mediocre by the way they address the POIs. Unfortunately, they lost against SSP in the semi-finals. Daaaaarrrrnnnn....

So, until HKSBP Zon Timur 2010... Au revoir...

Ship To The Moon

He had the opportunity to do something big.
Something like building the ship that could sail to the moon.
But he stirred away from the dream and wish.
Because someone told him that it was foolish.
He always listened to everyone else.
Everyone else except himself.
