I will personally invade your blog to proclaim my presence and to make it known to the world that i'm back.

Yay.

I feel pretty. Oh so pretty.


Taken from Aziz's blog.

[ Starts ]

The years haven't been too kind to you. Gone is what was once a bright shining star. The compass and guiding light in your life taken away. A companion lost.

Friendship is a very easy knot to tie. It is equally easy to unravel. A small quarrel or a slight disagreement gone uncheck could lead to a disastrous results.

We all experience loss everyso often. The loss of a friend is no exception. Friends can deteriorate to strangers, your best bud could become your worst enemy. And when it happens, it would be a tragic thing indeed. We all wish to preserve our friendships. To have a friend is to have a "north star". To have a direction.

Our friends tell us which way to go in life. And when we lose our guides in life, we begin to feel lost and alone. We feel empty. Sad.

Yet life still goes on. We carry on with our lives while at the back of our minds, lurks the everpresent nudge of missing someone.

No matter what we do and how we try to look at it, things will never be the same again. We will be haunted by the shadow of a friend lost.

The years will pass and we will go numb from the pain. There will come a day when we look back to friendship lost and can do naught but sigh. A lost friend is a tragic loss indeed.

[ Ends ]

And the memories haunt me yet again. Flashbacks to the beach, the all night conversations, the promises to be bestfriends till forever, to grow up and be lil old ladies together...

Have i mentioned im running a slight fever, having a neverending flow of fluids dripping from my nose, that my voice becomes raspy once in a while, my eyes are brimming with tears, and that i already miss the other half? wahhahhaha. Yes Rhino. I am too crazy about the other half. Can't help it lah.

Congrats to Mal, for managing to work things out between her and her other half. Hope everything works alright now okey? Compromising always works.

So anyway, there's a song thats supposed to be played in the background, but apparently ive used up my bandwith. Will someone please recommend me where i can host my music? Photobucket can only host photos and ripway apparently sucks. *Grins*

I was bored the other day, and thus i made this collage. Im pretty proud of it. Its bigger but ive resized it specially for the wallpaper on my hp.


Fadhilah . Faris
Before i begin:



Try to figure it out by the end of this entry. The answers will be at the end of the entire entry orkay? K to the original entry!



The other half bought a 20GB Zen Touch. The functions were not bad, the sound quality was great, the person he bought it from has inserted 7GB of songs. The only lowside was the rather large size and weight of the phone compared to the iPod. So as you blogders can guess, the iPod is his next target.

Kimmi smsed me this morning, asking me as well as the Sephy Estrellas whether we would want an outing. I declined, as i was feeling rather sick in the morning, and cuz i had a CCA open house in the afternoon. But things took a turn when:

i) Every single one of my friends turned out to be pontenging the CCA open house.

ii) My sickness dwindled a lil.

iii) The other half called and said he needed the money to get the Zen.

And thus, i went home straight after school, prayed Zuhur, bathed, changed and went out again to meet him after his Friday prayers. The exchange was held at Bishan, so we took a train there. All along the journey, we were rather silent, occassionally saying random stuffs. Hmm.. Perhaps both of us are super tired.



But after wolfing down lunch at Long John's, the normal hyperness returned. Whilst we were eating, the seller smsed this

"Whats Mcs?"


Oh God. and i thought everyone would know what Mcs is. (its McDonalds btw). Apparently the other half has arranged to meet at Mcs, and the guy didnt know what Mcs is. teeehee.

Please notice that there are alot of pictures in my blog nowadays. It is because i finally got a camera phone. Yes, i've got a camera PHONE. Woopdeadoo! *prances around the whole world wide web*



The other half is going bonkers as now i keep taking photos with my phone, as well as his phone. Look at his stressed face regretting spending 150 buckeroos on me. Haha!



The Nokia 7600 is now officially mine after handing over 200 bucks to the other half. huargahaha! The 'buyer' of my 3100 is my mom, who decided that a mini-digicam would be useful, and that she also needed a new substitute for her defunct ericsson. So yeah! I'm still getting used to smsing using the phone (a msg used to take at least five minutes. But the record time now is around 1 min), but overall, im in love with it! Mp3 files, video/voice recording, norm camera, a unique look. Teehee!

Hmm.. actually i intended to write about this butch, but has discarded the idea. Perhaps some other time.

And thus concludes the end of this entry. The answers to the quiz above:


I only got the last 2 correct. boohoo.

JC crash! Kedebaboooo!


After a bleedingly boring Civics lesson at the hall with the rest of the JC1s (in which i was sleeping quite soundly), i sort of 'abandoned' my OG mates (sorry guys) in order to meet the Rhino, cuz today is... JC crash day! The Pig, Astroboy as well as Lizzy came along at around 10am and were given a rather pathetic tour of JJC by the Rhino and I.


Xiu Li and Meliza


So after taking an MOE test, which i did haphazardly as the prospects of Town was calling me, the 5 of us took the train to Somerset. Aboard the train, we were like playing with this chinese toddler. Weirdly, he was like smiling whenever he looks at the pig, but emotionless whenever he looks at the rest of us. So we figured this out =

Chinese love pork. Claire's a pig. Therefore, toddler smiles.


Yum yum. Tuck in!


We got down at Somerset, and headed towards Marche. yeah i know its Non-Halal, but i was kinda full, so i didnt really felt the need to eat a heavy lunch. XiuLi and the rest wanted me to try out this potato slices thingy (which looks very very scrumptious) but i was kinda disappointed when i saw that the pan was situated in the middle of porkstuffs. So no potato thingies.

They ordered like spaghetti, chicken and stuff, all of which was non-Halal, and therefore i couldnt taste the food. I did, however, bought a cheesebun (no meatstuffs around it) and it taste real good. $1.20 and soo much better tasting and bigger in size then the usual cheesebuns at other bakeries. Im gonna get some more soon.


Rhino and Me at the ulu JJ library.


After getting ourselves filled, we proceeded to walk around Heerens and Taka. Being gluttons, we spent quite a while at the food-related stores, buying Ice Cream, cheesecake etc. We joked, shopped, bitched about others, gossiped and did alot of the things that we used to do last year.


Pig and Me.


It was like taking a trip down memory lane. I so miss hanging out together with Pig and Rhino, the three of us. Even though i end up being the so-called 'outkast' who gets bullied (2 against 1), its find with me, cuz i love these two buggers loads. If only we are still in the same school.. Sighness.

Soon, at around 415pm, we decided to head home, as Rhino and Pig were having stomach cramps and i was (and still am) feeling slightly feverish as well as having flu. It was a great day, one i will definately remember. I miss having threesomes.



[Clockwise from left] The Pig's green-blue Nikes. Rhino's blue-white Nikes. Lizzy's brown Chucks. AstroBoy's Highcut striking yellow Chucks. And my oh-so-beautiful Chucks. 3 Chucks to 2 Nikes.

Chucks rule.

Lets see..


For the first time ever since school reopened, i managed to reach home by 430pm. Syiok lah having this kind of happenings once in a while. Once i got home, i rested my tired legs over the armchair for half an hour watching TV then proceeded to bath, eat, pray then went to sleep all the way till 7pm, when the other half called to chat.

The conversation was really lame and quiet at the beginning, cuz i was still kinda stoned out from sleeping, and he just reached home from school (or rather, bowling with his cca mates). But 30 mins later we started taking on different roles. The other half became a 13 year old and i, a 15 year old. Then we started talking about life etc in kiddie voices, especially his. Haha.. Stupid lah the conversation. Stupid but very entertaining. hah!

Which reminds me...


I really miss them three. Sighness.


We had PE for the first time ever. At first i wasnt really looking forward to it, as its been a while ages since ive stepped foot onto the physical training world. But after warming up, i paired up with Shamini and together we ran and enjoyed ourselves, taking over all the girls and running upfront with the guys. It feels good running once again. Feeling the muscles expand and contract, knowing that my body is regaining its shape.

Toned legs and solid abs! Here i come!


The allocation of classes have been done up. Shamini will be in the same class as Nazeera (who is absent today, due to flu. Take care girl). I'm in the same class as Sanghita. Han Ning will be alone. Poor dear. I searched thru the class list, and managed to find 2 (or was it 3?) other Malays. Buh! I've not yet made Malay friends in JJC (except for Naz). This stresses me out, dun ask why. Haha.

I've been really lazy in returning smses (unless its from the other half) as im currently using the 7600. So if anyone smses me, please expect a call rather then a reply for the sms. haha! The other half says that if i manage to sell my 3100 and add another 50 bucks and give the total amount to him, the 7600 will be mine. Which goes to show that he'll be footing half the cost of the phone. Weahoo! Insyaallah.

But first i'll have to get a buyer. My 3100 is in suuucchh a beat-up condition. As in really. really. really beat up.

Buh!

Weahooo!!


Today was a looong day. School ended at 10am, with maths AO being the last lecture. The teacher (whom i forgot the name, again)was real nice, and for our first lesson, we learnt... Simultaneous equations. Oh wow. Haha! It was good though, starting everything from scratch.

And thus, since lessons ended real early in the morning, i sneaked out of school to meet the other half. He was supposed to pick me up, but a last minute handphone deal which cannot be missed came about, so he abandoned me for the deal, and left me to travel alone to bukit timah to meet him.

Not that im complaining though. He traded his s700i for a k700i, a 7600 and 50 buckeroos. Like woah! So he's currently using a k700i, im using his 7600 until Thursday, and he spent some of that 50 bucks today. haha!


From this.



To all these.


So anyway, we later met up at Bukit Timah, where, i got a call from dearest Rhino. She was saying that she was with the Pig at a polyclinic, and that the pig had to go for an Xray. I was shocked and worried lah, since the pig has been coughing non stop for the past few weeks. Thank God it turned out to be normal coughs. Alhamdulillah. Take care pig. Faddy loves you still.

So anyway, im too busy enjoying the phone, so i shall update using photos.


The pool table. $3.80 per hour.


Him with the balls to out on the table.


Me after winning one game out of the four that we played. Oh look how overjoyed i am.


Proceeded to makan at Al-Ameen's which was opposite the road. KACHING! (sound of wallet opening)


Ohh lookie! We met Shamini who is my new JJC fren, as well as his primary school fren.


We then boarded a bus to Paya Lebar's coffeebean.


And again he had to fork out money. One mocha ice to go!


Now tell me. Who's the hottie of the day?


Then its home sweet home!


Uhm. My brother kpoing around with my phone. Er. I mean the other half's phone. haha! He's taken btw. huaarghaha!


Hmm. One cool thing happened. As we alighted bus 154 at Paya Lebar, we proceeded to the coffeebean. Then we drank etc, then we went to the busstop around 45 mins later to get home. Upon seeing 154 approaching, we rushed, and boarded the bus. Alas, i found my ezlink missing. I paid using coins, and went up to the second deck. I searched for my ezlink and found it. Guess where?

Under the seat where i was sitting on the way to Coffeebean! Turns out we boarded the same bus as before!


Weahooo! I sure am lucky today! If not my concession pass will be gone seh. Alhamdulillah. Thank God. Really. Phew. Ok then. Back to adding more mp3s to the handphone. Teehee!

Sms from a best friend to another. (Keep in mind they have not contacted for around 2 mths)

Translated to English


- Hey ****. Dont you miss me?.. Not one news have i gotten from you.. Its as if we disappeared from each other's lives (".) haha...

~ Wei hei.. Wassup.. Where got? Relax lah. Theres still a lifetime mah ;) Niway thot you'd settle down in your new life first before i start bugging ya.

- Haha.. Whats new in life beb? Its all the same life.. Sorry i didnt contact you. My ego got in the way, as i wanted you to contact me first. But its too long a wait. Haha.. Hows life?

~ Oh ok. well the last time i talked to you, you sounded distant enough.. So.. life is cool.. Quite fun i have to say.. JJC mat haven ah?

- I was disappointed that you didnt call whatsoever so i turned my back on you. Heh. Haven really seen the mats around, too concentrate on studies lah! heh.. YJC must have loads.

~ Oh haha.. YJ got lah some which caught me and ***'s eyes. The jam and hiphop night was fab in my school! Even **** got some groovy moves!

- Waaah. Haha. It seems that every jc had clubbing night eh.. ahha.. The 3 of you if conduct an outing, bring me along uh..

~ Ok! No worry.. Eh i wanna sleep now. Kind of sick ah.. Talk to ya some other time k! Nite! Sweet dreams dear!

I do miss her, even though i try to make myself not to. There's too much of the turbulent rollercoaster ride of life that ive shared with her. My highest ups and my lowest downs. Maybe one day we'll be together again. Insyallah.

[[ NEWS ]]
ARGH!!! Rhino's sister has an interviewing job with non other than our Singapore Idol, Taufik Batisahhhhh. She'll talk to him, take photos and stuff that journalists do. ARGh!! i sooo wanna join mass com at this point of time.

Pfft.

The other half.


Wargh! The JC schedule really sucks. Its like we have lessons once in a while and have at least a total of 2hrs free period in between. Waste of time i tell you. Buh! But on the other hand, the lectures were not as boring as i deem it to be.

Basically I hung out with Nazeerah, Sanghita, Han Ning, Shamini and Amy the whole day.

I gatecrashed into the literature lecture and damn do i regret not taking it. Insyallah after the first 3 months i will get it. The teacher, Mr Timothy Dore, an AngMoh, was like so literaturish, unlike the teachers i got in sec school. Buh!

Later on in the day i had an economics lecture. After hearing the other half's laments about how hard econs is, i was kinda prepared for the worst. However, surprise surprise, its not that bad.


That reminds me. Me and the Rhino are on talking terms again. Hehe! Im so happy.

So back to the story. After econs we had a 2hr break, so me and Nazeerah as well as an East View girl named Sarah explored the school. The library was kinda big, but it was super ulu, reminding me of the old Jurong East library. The books were all studies-related, not much story books. Bleah!

After the break, me and Han Ning proceeded to the history class. Again, it wasnt that bad. Sitting beside Han Ning stresses me into writing down notes, as she is forever writing down notes (even writing down notes when we had a talk on i-forgot-what).

School was supposed to end at 1230, but as mentioned earlier in the last paragraph, we had a talk on something. As you can see, i wasnt paying attention at all, rather, preferring to sleep/finish reading up my book/sms the other half/joking about. I do remember someone asking

"So what do you do, if you are a librarian, then 2 guys are having a "fight" in the library. One of them wants the window closed, while the other wants it to be open?"

And to which one guy went upfront, got hold of the mike and said

"In Singapore right, where got library open air? So of course must close the window since got air-con."

Talking about funny stuff, Kinky's and Syaza's homemade video clip of the song I'm Not ok (i promise) by Chemical Romance made me and both my brothers laugh till our sides hurt yesterday night. Good job kinky. Now go direct a comedy.


Us tinkering about with the phone. The pic quality kinda bad, cuz i forgot to focus. heeehe.

Sunday, January 09, 2005

Currently hooked onto:



Nas came over in the early evening, at around 3pm and we had one of those talking sessions again. So we like talked for around an hour, before she had to leave at 4pm to meet her Pirates so that they can attend a gig together.

I know i didnt give much of a good advise, Nas, i'm sorry. But i hope i did make a good listening ear. Be strong girl. Faddy loves you lots.

Mal, you take care too beb. Insyaallah things will be ok k?

The other half has bought a


S700i


Oh geeez.. Thats like the 20-sumthing time he changed his phone in the last 6 months or so. But yeah, i do dig the camera functions on the phone. The sms-ing part is a tad too troublesome though. How i know?

Cuz he came down at 630pm just to see me for half an hour even though his house is like 45mins journey from my place. Awwwww. haha. Its the lil things he does which makes me go all gooey. So as we were testing and poking around his new phone, he suddenly proclaimed

"You.. Im gonna sell this phone and get another phone, an mp3 player and give some money to my mom."


This coming from a guy who just bought the phone like 30mins ago. 1.2.3. Lets all say

Tauhueeeyyy~


I'll add the pics when he gets online later and passes the pixies to me. Till then.
"You know.. I think we should really thank God for what we have right now Fad. Both you and I have got into our first choice schools, and even with our tight schedules we still try to make time for each other. We seldom fight, and even if we do, it lasts for only a day, then the both of us will make up. There's no major problem that we have between us.." - The Other Half

Alhamdulillah.


On the other hand, things have taken a downturn for the people around me...

For example, ten minutes after i put down the phone with the other half, my cousin called to inform that she and her guy have broken up due to his over-possesiveness. People say i'm possesive, but i guess her guy (now ex) is even more possesive. Its like she has to ask his permission to go out anywhere. Like

Scenario One.
Couz: You.. may i go to the coffeeshop downstairs with my best friend? (Time: 1130pm)
Him: NO. Go home now.

Scenario Two.
Couz: You.. Im eating lunch with a male colleague. There's supposed to be 4 of us, but 2 of them cancelled last minute. The guy im eating with is already engaged and gonna be married soon.
Him: NO. You leave now!

So yeah. See? Im not that possesive what.

A friend is having a huge problem with her guy due to an ex coming into a picture. In a state of drunkenness, her guy french-kissed his ex. Thats why i always say, drinking is bad...

Another friend's guy has not been contacting her much, sometimes having no news at all for 2 days...

Besides that, my Mom was telling me about how the bodies of SriLankan people were buried. Its like they didn't even wrap the bodies, and not an ounce of respect was given to these people. Tractors were used to fling their body into the holes, or people just carried and threw the bodies in. The victims have already suffered a terrible death, the least people can do is respect them.

And there's this weird phenomena of the opposite movement called "Retrograde Motion"
Most scientist state that all the planets will go through the same once at least and our planet Earth is one of them. Planet Earth will move in the opposite direction some day and the sun will rise from the west, and it may occur soon.

Not to mention, i was reading up about tsunamis, the earth crusts etc. And what i learned was that sometimes extreme weather changes occur every 250 000 or so years, the last one being the Ice Age (which was much more then 250 000 years ago). Earthquakes reaching high in the Righter scale used to occur once in around 70 or so years, but now occur more frequently. Thus leading me to conclude

Is the End really coming near?
