Yes.. yes... I should be doing work rather than listing out movies to watch out for. I've been panicking a lot about school lately. Especially after how my group was saying that the next 9weeks are gona be packed and stressful. Its gona be pretty tight =X I just hope i do well. I REALLY wana do well. Erkk! Plus side... i've prepared my presentation and how cool is it that i have Paramore in one of the slides.. nyahaha. Dont ask though =P

Besides that.. i've had a lot on my mind. Sometimes too much for someone like me. You know what's actually nice? Just lying on the floor. HAHA. I know .. weird. But u really get to think. Ok ... im weird that way. But heck.. who cares right? =P What would have been nicer would be lying outside and staring at the full moon that's out tonight. But that'd be too cold. Dududu~ =P

Anyhoo... i better be off. Noite! ♥

Last year's wishes are this year's apologies

'TRACK ID'... the single most coolest thing that probably exists rite now. HAHA. I've seen it work in the latest episode of 'One Tree Hill', when Peyton used her phone to find out what song was playing on the radio. Yes.. that's how track id works.. Cool ey? It detects songs from an external source, and gives you the name of the song, band and album name.

AND.... Apeq has it in his new phone! We were all sooo ISKI... we tried it tadi during the group meet. I played a song from my phone, and let apeq's track id do its thing. Damn! It worked! Im so jealous now. I want a track id! But it needs to go through internet of course.

I WANT ONE! =D

Thanks for the memories.

Was just listening to FOB'S new album 'Infinity on High'. I feel kinda... i dont know. Nothing really stood out for me like their previous albums. Ok probably except 'Im Like a Lawyer With The Way Im Always Trying To get You Off'. Im not saying the album's bad. Its pretty SWEET. I guess im just saying its different. Probably, i just expected more hardcore guitar and drum solos. Patrick's voice tho.. ahh.. sweet as always! I can imagine him singing in his geeky ways in every song. So thats good =D

I've been excited about going to classes. Weird really. But i guess its good. Better, if it lasts! It has only been the 2nd day back. LOL! Tomorrow's the weekly group meet. I actually miss hanging around them lot.

Havent been sleeping well though. I keep waking up from weird dreams. Mummy woke me up at 5AM tadi so that i could talk to Aimi. Speaking of which.. Congratulations to AIMI! For her A Level results. Dont be too hard on yourself dude. You did ur best. Im proud of you. Parents will be parents ey? *HUGS* ♥ Now, stop being all gloomy. Chin up k!

Its not hard to fall. Its harder to let go.

GAHHH! Apparently the timetable that was posted on blackboard was for previous year. Its a good thing i took a copy from the teaching office. RETARDS! So now.. i DONT have free Fridays.. infact its full. Blahh! But Mons, Weds and Thurs are only filled with one class, they start late even. How i wish they could cramp it up in a day. So we can have 2 days off.. pfft! Oh well.. that's engineering. They hate giving days off.

My supervisor Rossi is out of the office til 5th Feb. How the heck am i spose to discuss my presentation with her?! The presentation itself is on the 5th. Gah!

She's amazed how he's still living a constant lie.

I've just put up a huge notice on my wall reminding me of my projects' reports and presentations dates. And im amazed on how it actually works. Cos everytime i go in my room.. i actually look at it first. Probably cause its new =P But heyy.. it got me doing work. And that felt good.

I have Fridays off this spring semester. But i promised myself to make full use of that day and devote my free time more to work. Its your final year santy... think about it.

I've been having weird dreams lately. Its been bothering me, even if i cant remember it clearly. Just the people in it bothers me that much.

Was at Farid's place earlier, to pick up some stuffs and just hang out with him n Faye. Needed to get out of the house anyways. When we were watching tv, we heard sirens and motor sounds.. Apparently there was a small fire just around the corner. Yes, we were such nosy people.. we went out to find out what happened. We got to chat a bit with Farid's neighbour too. He seemed nice.

Is it weird that im actually glad that school's starting tomorrow? At least i have something to do you know. Keeps me from spending money most importantly, cause i need to pay for bills. Im seriously LOW on cash and i have to keep buying food. I cant wait for the 1st. Are you as a bit glad as i am that Feb has 28 days only? Hehe.

Im off to bed. I'm actually excited to meet my friends tomorrow. Noite! ♥

Was browsing through my pictures. And found this. I like this picture of my mom and Aimi. I miss them loads! ♥

Happiness

Happiness come in many form,
In the company of good friends,
In the feeling you get when u make someone else's dream come true,
Or in the promise of hope renewed.
Its ok to let yourself be happy.
Because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be.

Beautiful playing is a gift

OMG.. i was browsing thru youtube right (Yes, i was bored!~).. THEN i found this awesomely talented piano dude making videos of 'How to play...' and apparently he has loads! From AAR's It ends tonight to Coldplay's Clocks to Augustana's Boston .. GAHHHH! Kill me now please... cause im seriously thinking of buying a keyboard. With the money i DONT have. GAHHHHH! Anyone wana sell me good quality keyboards cheap? Or at least lend it to me til the end of the term? Heeee! =D

Damn it! I wana playyyy~~

I was reading thru Nisa's blog (HERE) on how she felt kinda cheery in the morning, but the day ended being depressing. I thought i was the only one. I feel the same way dude! I woke up to a sunny day, feeling all happy and smily. Now, i feel so lonely and sad. And listening to 'The Fray' right now doesnt exactly help. Funny how mood swings can ruin ur day ey?

Probably the last time i played those keys:

Lets give this one last try

Was suppose to go to BDSSW's general meeting. But i woke up quarter to what time it was suppose to start. LOL.

I feel that im sincerely happy for myself at this very moment.. something that hasnt been happening for a while i guess. Things have been rough for the past month. But its safe to say that its all good now. I am honestly happy. I pray for this to last. For a moment, i thought i was alone. But people around me proved that i can never be alone. Again.. i am blessed. ♥

Mummy reminded me earlier of my purpose here. And that i should be using my time wisely. Ok.. its evidence from previous blogs that i've been out a lot lately. Only cause i needed to be around these people. It was either sleeping thru my depression or be around them lovelies to help me out. Only then, can i carry on with work. Which i HAVE been doing. So i didnt exactly feel guilty when mom reminds me constantly of that. I can be proud of myself that way i guess. But nonetheless, i appreciate mummy being mummy =) I miss her soo much.. and the little things she does =(

Anyways.. here i am to start my day. Late! I know.. but i plan to do something productive today. Let me be... hehe. MWAH!

A song so awful but so perfect.

Have i done anything productive since exam started and before 2nd semester starts? NOPE! Ok.. probably a little. But that doesnt really help much. Gosh! =X

So what have i actually been doing with my tim? Proving more n more to myself that im a movie junkie. (Not that its a bad thing! =D) Been going and hanging out at the cinema EVERYDAY for the past week, except one. Making full use of the unlimited =D Infact, i just got back from watching 'Bobby' and 'Black Diamond' with Baz, Faye and Farid. Both were good movies. Loads of blood splatters i must say.

Today has been very umm... interesting for me. Random people have been trying to make conversations with me. Its nice i guess.. up to the point when they tell you that they have a song about girls flipping their hair around. That was weird. Its like there's a "TALK TO ME" sign on my forehead or something =P

Umie's at Manchester as we speak. Brought a huge ass luggage, which she called 'the devil in earth form'. HAHA! Hope you're alright and enjoying urself. See you in 11 days dude. MWAH! ;)

Just some random pics i took on the bus, otw to the station.

Water under the bridge

Most wounds run deeper than we can imagine
You cant see them with the naked eye
And then there are the wounds that take us by surprise

The trick with any kind of wound or disease
is to dig down and find the real source of the injury
and once you've found it
try like hell to heal that sucker.

A handful of memories

I woke u to such a lovely day this morning. I feel like walking around =)

Umie made me 2 cd's full of SoCo's songs. It was really nice of her. I slept listening to them all night =) Thanks babe. MWAH! <3

I just remembered that my project's oral presentation is this 5th of Feb. I'll get right to that. I was panicking at first, but reading thru the guidelines calmed me down. I just gota talk my way thru it... GAH! Of all things.. i hate presentations the most!

Watched another movie last night 'Last King of Scotland', with them Colum babies. 4 days of movies. Nice! =D Met up at Starbucks before that, and stopped by Hard Rock Cafe just to look around. Omg! The guitars and drums on the wall.. I'd find peace if i had all that on the walls in my room. Ahhhh~

I found this to be really cool ...



I miss home. I wana go home. *sigh*

Please dont be judgemental about the whole thing.

It's always nice to know that you have someone who will listen, understand and support you in whatever you decide to do. Im blessed that way =)

The weekend has been pretty much about abusing my cinema unlimited card =D Lets see...

Friday night was 'SMOKIN ACES'.. which i can say was a good movie. There were a lot of people in it, which was cool. Alicia Keys <3 (i miss her.. music wise), Ryan Reynolds <3 and omg! One of the three brothers was CHRIS PINE rupanya, the guy in 'Princess Diaries 2' and 'Just My Luck'... gahhh! ;)

Saturday evening 'PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS'.. such a motivating movie. There wasnt probably a dry eye in the cinema... at least i know ours wasnt =P Then after that.. it was 'ROCKY BALBOA'.. Milo Ventimiglia!! <33 And if u noticed when they talked, Milo could actually pull it off as being Stallone's son.

Lastly... last night was 'BABEL'.. which i checked meant "a confused mixture of sounds or voices." .. which suited the movie i guess. Honestly, i think the movie was good. Brad Pitt looked hot no matter what. HAHA.

I have nothing to do today. I think im gona some chores. Yup, i REALLY dont have anything to do. LOL! I just got next semester's timetable.. im soooo happy that my Mondays start late =D

Ok.. i should go now. MWAH!

How can i change your mind.

Isnt it scary how people can just change their mood in a split of a second? How you can just put on a fake smile.. enough to convince them around you that everything's just fine. Its more scarier when you actually master it yourself. Enough to be in denial of how you actually feel. I think we do that to be away from our problems, try to keep grounded and not make others be down by our own personal matters. We tend to be selfish that way. But then you fall back... realizing that you cant run all the time.

I miss the past. I miss who we were. How we were so naive of the world and reality, and how ok is was to be ignorant of the world. How sincerely happy we were, not knowing that there's more to life than just having fun. Wow. That felt like a really long time ago.

Now, there's so much involved: Feelings and emotions, status, reputation, career and achievements, finance, time... and many many more. I get scared just thinking of whats to become of me.

Do correct me if im wrong. Because i can be pretty emotional and talk nonsense, spur of the moment sort of thing.

I do wish for everyone's true happiness and success in life.

Maybe we'll live and learn, maybe we'll crash and burn.

*SCREAMING MY LUNGS OUTTTTTT*

YES! EXAMS ARE OVER! Tho, there's this constant worry. I just hope i did well enough. AMIN! The last paper was OK i guess.. i did my best. And that's what all that matters rite? GAH! I WISH!!

ohh.. and SELAMAT AWAL TAHUN HIJRAH everyone!

Gosh. I feel exhausted. 4 days in 5 days. I couldnt study last night cos of the ever-so-wrong-timing headache. So, i slept around midnight and woke up around 5AM. Surprisingly, i felt fresh. And continued with the revision, which was trully helpful! So im happy =D

The day has been depressing though. I woke up to Coldplay, Copeland and Snow Patrol. And that kinda stuck til now. Trying to listen to more upbeat songs.. it just dont feel right. I think i just want to let myself be down today. Ok maybe not down.. just not as lively. Which is why im gona go out soon. Go over to Colum and then off to Cineworld.

Gosh! I miss our weekly friday movie date. And i miss making full use of my unlimited card. Gahh! I have 10 days to abuse it til next semester starts. Anyone up for a movie marathon? Heee =D

Oh, shout out to Peman for all the notes and help. I owe you tonnes! =D Hope we'll excel and graduate together proudly.. AMIN! =D

Sleep deprived might just be the new trend.

Lets not start another post whining about how my exam went now shall we...

... actually.. lets just get it over and done with. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! There you go. LOL. You know the feeling of when u studied sooo hard, yet when it was time to open the exam paper, you feel like you just want to cry...? Pretty much what i felt. Its not that i couldnt answer ANY question.. just that i didnt feel confident of scoring full marks at ANY of the questions. Just pray that i do well enough. AMIN!

Oh.. and i told you my mom would wake me up! She texted me at 7AM here saying "BANGUN BANGUN... EXAM EXAM EXAM", but then i didnt reply so she called. And i was like "Meh, my exam's at 1pm". She said "Oh well, bangun tah saja" HAHAHA. I miss her <3

Being in this room feels so depressing and lonely. Urgh. I miss home. I miss Lambak. Bah.. dont be emotional now Santy! Must be the sleep-deprived talking. Speaking of which... i should get some good rest now, so i can start fresh for a whole revision day tomorrow. Last exam on Friday! Cineworld here i comeeee... weee... movie marathon anyone? =D

MWAH ♥

Im standing on the edge, trying not to fall.

Wow. I survived 2 days of straight exams. (Another tomorrow then Friday) Though, i overslept and ALMOST missed my exam this morning. Took a cab to Talybont and arrived 10minutes late. Gosh. Two consecutive nights, i slept only for a couple of hours. Gosh. Thank God, esuk my exam is at 1pm. Hee! My mom freaked out when i told her about it, i think she's gona call me up tomorrow just to make sure i'll be up for the exam. Haha.

What a day. Even with Aimi doing her part of missed-calling me several times as i asked of her, and Hakeem being all worried and tried to call couple of times... I was too passed out to be awaken by my ringtone, loud even! And mind you, my phone was just under my pillow... CLOSE to my ear. Damn.. i was THAT tired. Either that, or i really do have hearing problems after all! LOL!

Never happened to me. I found it quite funny .. of course after everything went alright. It wouldnt have been if i actually missed the paper, which im hoping will NEVER happen! The things that happens during exam period. Its a wonder how we all still survive =P

I miss my family ..and Brunei food. Right now, i have a craving for Pari. Told my mom, she said "Astah. Sia2pun. Makan fish and chips saja." Hahahaha. I miss her <3

Anyways, pictures.

Let the past be the past. Start fresh.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! WELCOME 2007!!
SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILADHA!

AND

HAPPY 15TH BIRTHDAY TO MY BELOVED SISTER, ZARA!! 03/01


So 2006 is over.. much can be said about MY 2006. Lets just leave it as a year that's been thru such an emotional rollercoaster. There were times when i felt so depressed, and hit my lowest point. But of course, the good times pretty much overwhelms it. And that's what you really gota remember your year by.. the sweet memories. Lets not dwell on such miserable ones now .. why should we? Though... it makes you stronger.
Someone asked what was the best thing i did in 2006? I really dont know. So much happened.

These past couple of months have been great. I can honestly say i am happy. This past week alone have been great, had the most fun with: Hakeem, Umie, Nira, Maul, Faye, Farid, BabyFaye and Yulia. It mostly involved - weird horror movies (LOL), FOOD!, movie marathon, sleepovers. We all sleptover at Colum.. EVERYDAY for the past week. That was fun! <3>
That one night alone ... we did Pizza hut.



Then, surprised and picked up umie from work. Walked allllllll the way to and back from Cardiff Bay. (Pic below: the attempt to Jump for the camera LOL!)



Then.. yulia, maul and I decided to do cartwheels in the middle of nowhere..





Just before new years... we had people over for Bawee's and Reena's belated birthday surprise. The house was packed... after so long. Then, we all went off to Winter Wonderland and celebrated new years by going on crazy rides (at least i did =P) and watched fireworks as midnight struck. Thats when it poured heavily. That was actually nice... but freezing! hehe.



Faye and Yulia went back yesterday and I didnt even get the chance to say goodbye and send them off. Sorry babiess~

Well.. that's that and much more. Now its back to the books. Exams and projects. And somehow my body knows this... and im down with a sorethroat, flu and painful headaches. In simple terms... im SICK!

Oh btw... its almost impossible to call home these days! Been trying for the past week or so.. urgh! I could get thru to landlines... just not mobile phones. And it sucks that i cant get thru to my sister on her birthday. They're out for dinner.. pfftt! Yes.. yes.. im jealous. I miss home bad!

MWAH! <3>
