To Activians with Love


"Another turning point;
a fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.

It's not a question
but a lesson learned in time.


It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.


So take the photographs
and still frames in your mind.

Hang it on a shelf
In good health and good time.


Tattoos of memories
and dead skin on trial.

For what it's worth,
it was worth all the while.


It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life."
Time of Your Life by Green Day :')

A Day Without an Idiot Box


i guess it's true that rely too much on technology to enhance their lives that they start to become extremely dependent,making technology a necessity.there was a heavy downpour this afternoon followed by strong winds and a thunderstorm which pretty much screwed up our Astro services,leaving us with nothing to entertain ourselves with except for the radio and the internet.thank god the internet's not centralized too,pfft.. the pain of living in a condo.everything is being shared,our cable TV services,electricity,water supply,you name it.if it wasn't for KD10 High School,i would've shifted to a proper house AGES ago.

speaking of idiot box,i guess without it we'll never know what's happening beyond the comfort of our homes..just like how Obama is being hated by his own countrymen despite being elected president when he went against McCain.strange..why would people hate him?he's adorable.look at him...


some say he's only adored by Asian countries especially those populated by a majority of Muslims.say what?i just don't get it.he's a nice guy and always has the right things to say at the right timing.who can ever forget his spontaneous "Pulang kampung ni!" remark in his speech during his visit to Indonesia.come on guys,give Barry a break :)

i know i'm random and i'm supposed to blog about my Eid,yet..i doubt that i'm in the right mood to do so.i missed deila's open house and the worst part is,my 'other half' was there :( dammit.oh well,5 days to go before SPM starts,gotta get cracking if i want my result slip to explode with emissions of rainbow coloured smoke.LMAO.

Afi's 2nd Anniversary

on this particular date,2 years ago (2008),was the day i started rocking on my guitar of which i named Afi for two reasons:
1.my guitar interest came from my conversation with one of my favourite guitarists,Hanafi from Estranged.
2.'Afi' was derived from the model of the guitar,yamaha Pacifica 112J.

on this exact date,i can proudly claim," yes,i've been playing guitar for 2 years!" hehe.back then i could barely hold a guitar pick properly and now i'm on my way in becoming a soloist! how fast time flies.



this was back when i was 15.my 'first date' with Afi :D


JD tuning Afi by ear,amazing ain't it?and my ex-rhythm guitarist Shafiq randomly popping up,haha.

oh gosh...i DO look possessed,hehe.

thanks for 2years of rocking,Afi.may we rock for many years to come.

Hari Raya Qurban

MENGHAYATI HARI RAYA KORBAN

Oleh:

Ustaz Sayed Hasan Alatas

http://www.shiar-islam.com


'IDUL ADHA disebut juga sebagai Hari Raya Korban ataupun Hari Raya Haji. Ramai ummat Islam yang mampu menyembelih korban untuk dibagi-bagikan kepada fakir miskin. Ramai juga ummat Islam yang mencukupi syarat, menunaikan Ibadah Haji ke Baitullahilharam. Semangat pengorbanan yang telah dibuktikan oleh Nabi Ibrahim a.s. dilanjutkan pula oleh ummat Islam untuk membantu mereka yang susah.

Jika sifat suka berkorban ini meresap ke jiwa seluruh ummat Islam Isya-Allah akan ujud ketenangan dan kedamainan dalam masyarakat dan akan dekatlah jurang yang memisahkan antara yang kaya dengan yang miskin, antara yang kuat dengan yang lemah, antara penguasa dengan rakyat biasa.

Mereka yang kaya mengorbankan sebahagian daripada hartanya untuk membantu mereka yang didalam kesusahan, seperti yang biasa dialami oleh fakir miskin, yatim piatu ataupun sesiapa yang memerlukan pertulungan. Mereka yang telah menerima bantuan sepatutnya mensyukurinya dan berusaha dengan sekuat tenaga tidak hanya bergantung kepada pemberian orang, Rasullah s.a.w.telah mengingatkan bahwa:

“Tangan diatas lebih baik daripada tangan dibawah".

Oleh karena itu perlulah kita bekerja keras untuk meningkatkan taraf kehidupan kita. Jika kita rajin berusaha, seperti mengolah (mengerjakan) tanah yang terbiar, menanam berbagai tanaman, memelihara hewan ternak, memilihara ikan dan sebagainya Insya-Allah disatu masa taraf kehidupan kita akan berubah kepada yang lebih baik.

Ibadah Haji ialah ibadah yang diwajibkan kepada mereka yang mampu mengerjakan sekali seumur hidup, Allah s.w.t.berfirman yang maksudnya:

"Dan serulah manusia untuk mengerjakan Haji, niscaya mereka akan datang kepadamu dengan berjalan kaki dan mengenderai unta yang kurus (disebabkan jauhnya berjalan) yang datang dari segenap penjuru yang jauh. Supaya mereka menyaksikan berbagai munafaat bagi mereka dan supaya mereka menyebutkan nama Allah pada hari yang ditentukan, karena rezeki yang Allah telah anugerahkan kepada mereka berupa binatang ternak. Maka makanlah sebahagian daripadanya dan berilah makan orang yang sengsara dan fakir."(Qur'an. S.al-Hajj:27-28)

Sungguh besar menafaat yang akan diperoleh mereka yang mendapat kesempatan menunaikan ibadah haji, antaranya, Insya-Allah akan terjalin perasaan ukhuwah Islamiah sedunia, menanamkan rasa persamaan, mendidik rohani dan jasmani kita supaya tabah dan sabar menghadapi cobaan. Dapat melihat sendiri tempat tempat sejarah Nabi Ibrahim dan Ismail, tempat bersejarah ketika Rasulallah s.a.w. dan sahabat berjuang menegakkan kebenaran dan keadilan dan mengajak manusia kejalan yang benar jalan yang diredhai Allah s.w.t. yang terkandung dalam Islam.

Mereka yang datang menunaikan ibadah haji terdiri daripada berbagai bangsa yang datang dari segenap penjuru dunia, dengan demikian kita saling berkenalan dan dapat mempelajari adat manusia dari berbagai bangsa dan suku puak.

Berbagai kesukaran dari mula mempersiapkan perbelanjaan untuk yang pergi dan untuk yang ditinggalkan. Kesukaran dalam perjalanan, kesukaran menghadapi berbagai ragam manusia, kesukaran cuaca yang berbeda dari tempat asal kita, dan sebagainya, semua itu akan membentuk diri dan peribadi kita menjadi manusia yang sabar dan tabah menghadapi cubaan hidup.

Kita berdo'a kepada Allah s.w.t. semoga diampuninya segala dosa-dosa kita selama masa yang lalu, baik dosa yang mungkin kita telah lakukan terhadap diri ataupun terhadap mereka yang lemah. Kita mohon kepada Allah s.w.t. semoga diterimanya segala amal ibadah kita dan akhirnya kita akan memperoleh Husnul Khatimah, akhir yang baik dan dapatlah kehidupan kita diberkati dan diberikan ketenangan dan diselamatkan

Dreading 12-year-olds 12 days Prior SPM





can't believe how fast time flies,yesterday i remembered being 12 and getting my UPSR result slip and now it's 12 days until my SPM! congrats to all successful UPSR candidates :) savour your easy going life before you turn 17,LMAO.

today also marks the last day of being in a proper classroom with my KD10 classmates,i think we've made the best of it.i'm sure gonna miss being part of the noisiest gang in KD10 :( but thanks to technology,leaving school's not gonna be that bad.we can still chat and hang out right?as long as we keep in touch.well guys,this is it.this is our biggest shot in our school life,it's the grand finale to our 11years of school,SPM. best of luck everyone.i love you guys!

yesterday,we also had some really emotional moments in Perfection.it was the last Chemistry and Physics class we'll ever have in our lives (unless we repeat SPM of course,lol).At least we'll still get to keep in touch with Mr Loke but not Mr Zeelen.oh well,everything good has to end somehow.it was good while it lasted.may the memories cherish our everyday life.


Mr Loke Skywalker!

*on seeing Kak Nisha struggling to carry the projector out of the classroom*
"Mr Loke: aiya...you see,Malaysian boys are not gentleman at all.
Nisha: sir,you also the same lah sir.
Mr Loke: -_- "


Mr Zeelen :D

Surprise 'Good Luck' Dinner


i skipped school today knowing that if i don't,i'll end up wasting my precious two weeks since the teachers are busy with our textbook scheme.i wasn't involved,so i stayed at home.the only reason for me to go out today is my seminar in Perfection Academy,so i thought.then suddenly Rin tweeted me saying that she and Jijie were planning to have dinner with me downstairs.i guess you can call it a surprise 'Good Luck' dinner considering how long they've been planning to do this without my knowledge,haha! as i tweeted,being bloated at 10pm,gossiping by the pool and camwhoring at the kids' playground aren't really the things that make up a typical 14 nights before spm thing,but what the hayy ~ :D thanks girls!

tha kidnappers and our dinner XD

me with my gossip sisters rin and jijie by the pool at my condo.

good luck card! :D

Marabahaya Cover

to be perfectly frank,my first impression on Pop Shuvit's song "Marabahaya" wasn't too good.as much as I love PS,i seem to love their other songs rather than this one.But in 2009,they decided to collaborate with Slapshock,Dandee,Ahli Fiqir and a few more Southeast Asian Rapcore acts to form Project EAR and did a new rendition of the song.i fell in love with it instantly as soon as it was released on MySpace.remember the time when JD offered me to perform with them provided that i have to learn any few of PS' songs?i gave Old Skool Rocka a shot but it was terrible,yet i never gave up.in fact,i decided to try Marabahaya instead.the verses wasn't as challenging but the bridge riff needed LOTS of practice to get the speed right.after several attempts,i finally recorded it on my webcam and uploaded it on Youtube.


it took awhile to upload as the video is extremely big.i needed to make it presentable,editing alone took me around 1hour,let alone shooting the whole cover.it was mad but in the end,i was so glad Lao Tse loved it.here's the cover here for the curious ones.this is what he thinks of it :


i guess the 'bapa borek anak rintik' idiom applies here,except the fact that Lao tse and I are not related,or are we? ;)

strange how much we have in common: starting guitar at age 15,being the only musician in the family,being really good in Physics and English compared to any other subjects,...and some say we look like siblings O.0 i think we need a blood/DNA test,heheh.he might be my long-lost brother,lol..

whatever it is,shan't let him down.i'll prove myself worthy of being an excellent musician and make him proud one day.look out world! a new rockstar is heading your way,just wait! :))

-and did i mention he 'liked' the video too? lalala...

1 in The Morning

"To see you when I wake up
Is a gift
I didn't think could be real.
To know that you feel the same as I do
Is a three-fold, Utopian dream.


You do something to me that I can't explain.
So would I be out of line if I said "I miss you"?

I see your picture.
I smell your skin on
The empty pillow next to mine.
You have only been gone ten days,
But already I'm wasting away.
I know I'll see you again
Whether far or soon.
But I need you to know that I care,
And I miss you."

-I Miss You by Incubus

fyi,i'm not as heartless as i seem to be,in fact,i'm a major softy inside and if you can read my mind,i'm even worse than Shakespeare.imagine that?i tend to fall for someone really deep and really hard that it hurts so much and i end up avoiding them to lessen my feelings before it gets out of hand.it's pretty ridiculous but what if my other half is feeling the same way?scratch that,he DOES.it's creepy but cute but obsessive but touching.oh who cares..we're in love,that's why :) and i'm looking forward to Monday.also,SPM is within days so i made him promise me that he would pass all his subjects.it's a fair deal i suppose,also a good way for me to have a one-track mind until the exam is over.only then will our fairy tale journey begin.be patient my love,this is a once in a lifetime exam,we can't afford to screw up.have faith and we'll make it through,i promise :)

Epic Fail Youtube cover

i saw this teenager named Cody who covered the theme song of my favourite Saturday morning cartoon series,Recess.i got inspired and attempted to do a cover of some other song to be posted on Youtube.sadly,my laptop's audio setting went wrong and i shot the cover during the wrong time.mom was watching TV and the volume was blasted so loud that it outshone the sound of my electric guitar.i think i'll have to re-shoot the whole thing tomorrow afternoon when it's quiet.wish me luck fellers,the video should be online soon so stay tuned!

How to be A Good Girlfriend - Part 1

"What day is it? And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose

And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

All of the things that I want to say just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words
You've got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here


Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove

And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

There's something about you now
I can't quite figure out

Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right"

You and Me by Lifehouse.

to be perfectly honest,my previous relationships sucked big time and all i can say is i don't think they could be described as proper relationships at all.might be the fact that i don't see my ex-boyfriends everyday and also the fact that we live far apart.since none of them lasted long enough,i still have this phobia of boys cheating on me and breaking their promises without any relevant excuses.how DO you become a good girl friend anyway?i've made probably millions of mistakes,be it being too possessive,being too naive..the list goes on.what should i do to commit and at the same time,make him feel comfortable?i wouldn't wanna repeat my stupidity in my previous relationships.i know he could be 'the one',although not the first but there's a high possibility that he'd be my last.

thanks to Wikihow,i think i have a slight idea on how to be a godd girlfriend.ngeh.


hahahah,..this is so inappropriate,but i love stewie!

Hope


i'll make this extremely brief,i promise.so today's one of my favourite drummers's birthday.Azril Dino is 31 years old! rawk on man! today also marks the premiere of Frequency Cannon's most anticipated comeback,"Hope".believe it or not,i had to make a suicidal trip to FB to give it a listen as soon as it's online.to be frank,the song doesn't seem to be my cup of tea,well maybe i need a couple more listens before the melody can get into my head the same way "Can You?","Girl","Free Falling" and "2nd Chance" did.however,i'm anticipating their upcoming album.Kudos for the new style! RAWK ONN!!!
