Maybe I'm..

Shy That Way

Tristan Prettyman feat. Jason Mraz

you know you're stunning absolutely stunning
and I'm running always running

and now I'm crying you know
only cause I'm caring
and if you were more daring maybe you'd stop staring
and come over and talk to me
and tell me about how you've been waiting patiently
and how you tried but I just turned away and I'll say,
"yeah well you know, I'm shy that way"

shy that way
shy that way
maybe I'm shy that way

you know she's stunning she's absolutely stunning
but she's always running but ill catch up to her...

the way she keeps her distance
keepin my interest so ill keep it consistent
maybe someday, someway, somehow, sometime
we'll get together and we'll break it down
and I'll ask, "why you gotta be so shy, why you gotta be that way?"
well maybe, baby, I like it that way

shy that way
maybe I, like it shy that way
maybe I love you so shy that way

Ok, I'm shy that way...

there's always too much talking
and I wanna just keep walking
and I keep staring, baby, keep staring
though I may not know the right things to say
I'll get it out to you one day

shy that way
shy that way

do you like it? do you like it
when I'm shy
yes I like it, yes I like it,
when you're shy
shy that way

Just a ride, it's just a ride

``See you soon`Coldplay

In a bullet-proof vest, with the windows all closed

I'll be trying my best I'll see you soon

I stand corrected. SW teachers are SloWer. Frustration at the END of the paper- after all is done and you can't do nothing about it anymore and all you wanna do is get the hell outta the hall and run into a car or something (kidding) and there they are.. slowly gracing the aisles..- beats pre-paper anxiety hands down.

But all is good. 2 more and LIBERATION it will be.

My antenna must be lousy. Signalling for something else but picked up something else instead.

Despite whatever you say.

I'm not that sorta person.

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed.
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall death brag thou wand'rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Specially for my bro, Hafiz...

Nope, i cuden.

(hur hur..)

Especially considering my bro will NEVER in his whole life read this, since he will never in his whole life stumble across this page. Not and I will, u know, make sure he doesn't.

But as i was writing (typing) a birthday card for him tadi lotsa nice nice memories came to mind.. like how--

We'd be sepasang all the time last time- same tshirts (ninja turtles) same jumpers (diff sizes) same watches (mine pink his blue) etc..
we'd fight- no wwf shows, THEY WERE REAL, punch-punch, kick-kick, push-tug-pinch kinda fight on the old bed that would not end til we forget (or get tired).
he'd send me to school on his bike (bicycle) and we'd look at car license plates to spot the latest ones, and how he'd scold me everytime i refuse to let my body weight follow the tilt of the bike at corners (esp if he was going really fast) cos i was being too afraid to fall but we'd fall anw because of me..
i'd threaten my frens with "later i tell my brother!" everytime they kacau me
we'd compete to see who our mum loves most, by giving her kisses after kisses and seeing who got more kisses in return
we had this 'thrill route' from blk 604 to 608, where there'd be lotsa ramps and humps and what we'd (or rather, he would, but with me at the front) do was cycle really really fast then right at this certain place he'd stop and just let ourselves be taken away by the speed as we rode the various humps and ramps right til the endpoint. Adrenaline rush, comparable to a themepark roller coaster ride.. Feelin and hearin the wind..
he sent his love letters to the pri 5 sweet heart thru me
he refused to let me look at his whitley sec frens photos in case i fell in love with them (ok i made up the reason bit, but yea, it was true abt the photos)
I'd sit next to him watching him play games like Dune, Doom, Fifa, Warcraft.
he'd do stuffs, like make some noise, and shout out "Jangan lar nurul" that would make my parents go like "nurul..!" just for kicks (he still does that now.. grr)

Hmm.. how time's flown so fast. He's not the only one getting older.. me too.. Prob that's why we weren't as close as before.. I wonder if he missed me as his lil sis..

Happy birthday, bro. Thanks for being fab for all the 23 years of your life so far.. I'll try to be better.. InsyaAllah.

There's a love song to set us free

``out of time`blur
And you've been so busy lately that you haven't found the time

to open up ur mind and watch the world spinning,

gently out of time...

It felt like autumn today in my neighbourhood (despite the blazing heat).
Floor was littered with leaves, and the trees had rakes for crowns. Keane's Bedshaped was tugging my thoughts away from Social Work and for the moment, as I was walking back home, it felt really good.

Saw the poster put up at the staircase "No urinating in public places." That sounds rather er, painful, doesn't it.. arent most places public?

Was fidgeting so much at Genes&Soc paper just now that I bet I was hated by the people around me (mr 271, ms 331, and mr/ms 302 behind). Stomach wasn't too kind. The paper dint help either. The question-setters obviously spent 10 months, at least, just to design the trickiest, round-the-bushiest qns, ever, in the history of south-east asia and the new world. It was disgusting. Oh and there was sorta a diff between how Science teachers collated and counted the papers as compared with the Arts ones. They were so much more meticulous and organised (read:slow). At yesterday's paper they were just glad to let us go.

Oh. It was nice to see fie and maly after the paper for lunch. The past few days have been made more tolerable with them and kamie to crap, debate and stress with. Cant wait to talk psych with fie this sat haha (riiiight)..

Anw, yes, to quote off Ridhwan's MSN nick. So the battle begins.

2 down, 3 to go!

Siiiidetrack. Listen to the audio!! I just discovered it just now.. while searching for Coldplay's See You Soon (which you MUST try to get hold of, esp coldplay fans, like you, hatta and you, hafie), which i cuden seem to find hosts for. Heard of tristan prettyman, no? Well, u might have heard her song "love, love, love" instead. I think it got some airplay here.. Hm she's mraz's gf (!) but no, not jealous. Love the way their voices sound gorgeous together. I sampled her other tracks too and I thk they're not bad.. Hear for yourself.

The hypothalamus

is one of the most important parts of the brain, involved
in many kinds of motivation, among other functions. The hypothalamus controls
the "Four F's": fighting, fleeing, feeding, and mating.
~Unknown psychology professor

Blame it all upon.. a rush of blood to the head

I am officially in crush!

Tsk. In the mid of exam fever and all, you might say. But this is too good to be overlooked. Trying not to over-think though. In case.
Well.. DREAM HUSBAND, make your move, NOW. Else I will let myself be taken away.......

(Can't wait for exams to be over so I can daydream guiltless-ly. )

Ya Allah, terangkanlah hatiku dan hati kawan-kawanku, semoga Kau perbetulkan niat kami dan amalan kami, dengan hidayah Mu. Berkatilah hidup kami, makan minum kami dan ilmu kami. Dan maafkanlah kami, sesungguhnya Engkaulah yang Maha Pengampun, Maha Pengasih dan Maha Penyayang.

Finally..

I've uploaded my photos online.. Only 3 albums so far, the eminence jalan raya this year, the lunch with Shaf and the madrasah Jalan raya.. Check it out!

I've put up a link to it just below the tagboard too under "the romantics"..

Exams stress is kinda getting to me.. Plus lotsa cerpen stuffs to settle. But.. been having some interesting conversations lately.. Very interesting.. I wonder if they would amount to anything in the end..

Study hard and remember to pray hard too.. InsyaAllah He will guide and help us.

AND.. in the spirit of Harry Porter's 4th movie coming out tomorrow (!!!!),

One of them was a very old wizard who was wearing a long flowery nightgown. The other was clearly a Ministry wizard; he was holding out a pair of pinstriped trousers and almost crying with exasperation."Just put them on, Archie, there's a good chap. You can't walk around like that, the Muggle at the gate's already getting suspicious-""I bought this in a Muggle shop," said the old wizard stubbornly. "Muggles wear them.""Muggle women wear them, Archie, not the men, they wear these," said the Ministry wizard, and he brandished the pinstriped trousers."I'm not putting them on," said old Archie in indignation. "I like a healthy breeze 'round my privates, thanks."

Adios!

SELAMAT HARI RAYA!!!!

Hahaa... I know I am 2 days late, but I was so busy putting up langsirs after langsirs (curtains) ok.. I dint realise my house kaya langsir (curtains-rich) until now, I'm so sick of them! Oh but they're pretty.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the motive of my lovely lovely curtain. It's like cream organza with golden tulips. and we're using our old yellow satin curtains as bg. Pretty aint it? :D Be sure to LOOK when yall come over yea!

Fuhan, in case u were wondering, I DID NOT FORGET. I just... dint manage to wish u, that's all. really! u were in my mind the whole friggin day, was just waiting for the time to msg u, den in the end, past 12 alr. but cmon, that doesnt make me less of a good person ok?? haha i wish u now in front of the whole world: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! love ya to bits. but you know that.

And Isk, cleverly gave me MY birthday present on HIS birthday! He came all the way to khatib, from eunos, when he was heading to queensway, to meet me! Just corz he believes i may wanna use it for raya. And right he was! It's the very perfume I've been lusting over since nov LAST YEAR. Eclat d’Arpege by Lanvin.

Top notes:
Sicilian lemon leaves
Lilac green
Middle notes:
Wisteria flowers
Green tea leaves
Peach flowers
Red peony
Chinese osmanthus
End notes:
White cedar of Lebanon
Sweet musk
Precious amber

How wonderfully marvellous! It was shared between Isk and Ain, and actually it came as a whole gift pack- a 50ml bottle, a miniature, 2 sample vials, and body lotion. Must cost a bomb. The both of you are crazy I swear. But so very sweet....... Oh my kembar likes it too.. We share the same good taste, kembar! :)

Ok besides that, it's Pink's birthday today (yest, 4th nov) *sings*. Hahah not like he'll ever read this. Hmm. What a long, unbearable hiatus.

Talking abt birthdays, along with Pink's on 4th, it was Hatta's on 2nd (Nov), Isk and Fuhan's bdays on 1st, and Pri-sch-crush on 31st Oct. Take note, these 5 pple are all VERY significant figures in my life, in fact, they form the crux of my closest friends (ok besides mr pri-sch-crush, but, hmm, haha.. he probably wins the Longest Crush Award. That's significant.) alongside the tiring faces of eminence pple, and er rahman. See the connection? Like as if it's true that pple born on dates close to each other share some common traits, and for close friends, I'm almost ONLY attracted to the certain traits that these pple, born within these few days, have. haha!

And to end this relatively boring entry, I shall reveal my NEW dream husband. Gone is the old with the passing of Ramadhan.

Back OFF girls, he's MINE. Now and for the next 12 years,

by which time we'll be married happily and I wuden have to do any more warding off.
