Irrelevant




Its been awhile since I've updated this blog of mine. 

Its because that I'm either busy doing nothing or I'm too busy doing something. Perks of being me I guess. I went off to work at a local cinema and gained tons of experiences while I'm on the job. Life has been easier for me since I no longer over think that much. I wanna update this post soon with infos of the movies I've watched. There are two I guess. 

Until then, thanks for reading.

True Friend

Isn't it weird that you somehow feel better after breaking down ?
I feel light chested, stress-free, and somehow better.

I don't want to be the kind of person who keeps on posting negative things on blogger but I can't help it. Blogger is the only place I can write everything down. People might judge me but they don't know who I am and the story behind my smile.

I find comfort from friends. I am happy when I see them happy. At least I can have a little taste of warmth, of being welcomed, and cherished whenever I'm with them. I don't normally open up to people because most of society will only judge me directly. But then, people who know the story behind the smile that I put on everyday will understand me well.

I feel like I'm nothing most of the time, I feel like I'm just like hydrogen in the air. I do not  have any function. That changes when I'm with my friends. They make me feel like I'm special, a part of something that they don't want to lose, and most importantly, I can finally feel happy whenever I'm around them. I'm gravely touched from my best friends' birthday wish, they use the term "You're my best friend, I'm thankful to have you in my life." I finally feel like I'm needed, not just a decoration of some sort. I actually mean something to people.

I am in debt to two people, two people that understand my tale well enough to accept me and to always be there for me. The one that chose to cherish me. Listen to everything I say and gain something from it. I can't go to them this time because I don't want to be any burden to them because I know that they're having a rough time too. At least all I can do is offer a helping hand like what they did to me when I needed it. I love you guys so much.

You, you listened to my tale and even though you didn't have anything to say. I know you deeply understood what I was trying to say. You didn't judge me and instead you chose to sacrifice your own needs or ego. We're both in a mess now. I'm here to say that I can always lend you a helping hand whenever you need it. You've been there for me almost every time I needed someone to talk to, this is the least I can do to you. I know I'm a nuisance but I'm glad that you spared your time to listen to my problems. You don't know how much you've helped me along this journey of mine. I'm greatly in debt to you. I can rip off my wings just to let you fly. It saddens me to see you with a broken smile. You've helped to repair mine and I guess I should do the same to you. I'll cherish the moments that I've spent with you and our friends better starting now.

You, you are a different version of me but still, we can relate to each other. Even if the problems we're both facing are different, we can still understand well each other. When I first met you, I never thought that I would be this close to you. We're a Team. Like the fictional characters that we use to somehow relate to, in real life we are still a team. We all have strength deep within but you know you can't possibly stay strong forever. Sometimes you have to break down and regain your strength. You thought that you're alone, well I'm alone too. I'm the Haruno nonetheless. With all that strength you have inside you, you hope to pull everything back to the way it was. To its original state, our friendship I mean. I mean all three of us. You're a blessing in my life, heck you both are. I hope that our friendship will last for years to come.


Thanks for reading this awfully long post. Well it's been a very emotional day for me.
May God Bless You All for reading this post of mine.

4S2 (2013) - we truly are a family =)
 

January felt like yesterday and here I am sitting in front of my laptop
thinking on what to do during this 2 months holiday. I will surely miss my friends of 4S2.
If I have a wish, I would wish for this year to repeat itself.

Everything is in fact better this year than last year. I met people that made changes
in my life. I never thought that I would get overly attached to these people and
it saddens me to think that I might not be in the same class as them next year.

"Life is an adventure, it does not stop for anyone."

I wish I can be in the same class as my current classmates next year.
Why must the school change student's classes and label them based on their
exam marks. Oh dear, life has more to teach than sitting on a chair for 8 hours a day.
I hope to see something better for the school next year.

To those who are sitting for SPM soon, I wish you all best of luck.

Memories last longer with a picture than without it.
It saddens me to think that I might not have enough pictures for this year.
Everything seems to fly fast and I can't have enough of it.

I'll update again later for some pictures.
Thanks for dropping by =)

Getaway


I owe this person by loads ! She's a friend of mine working at Low Yat.


Went to KLCC as planned and damn it was the best idea ever.


Voila ! I bought a new beanie cause I lost my old one.
Cousin bought one too cause he liked the way I wear it.

A day at Pavi with cousins. Its been 4 months since I've been there.
Everything was perfect !

Bought an earring from Times Square. Thought that its hard to find in KK
so I bought one there !

Congratulations mum ! You have now worn a graduation gown !
This was the main objective of going to KL actually.

Snapback, Varsity and my black covered iPhone.
My friend said that I look a lot like a nine y.o. in this pic.
Sucks to be me.

Its time to go back to KK. I miss my friends so much !
Uhh not to forget, I love my new fisheye lens so much ! 

Oh not to forget, this is my cousin. Its been a hell lot of an adventure
during my stay in KL. It truly is a getaway for me. 

Thanks for dropping by ! =)

Better Under Pressure


The title of the book I'm holding is Better Under Pressure.
I took this picture a few months ago but then as I was scrolling to my older posts,
it reminded me of this one single book.
(I've never read this book before)

Did you know that a diamond is actually formed in huge pressure and heat, deep within the Earth ?

Perhaps what this book is trying to say that, within all of this pressure we get from people
around us will actually make us shine brighter than everyone. 
As the song goes, Shine Bright Like A Diamond !

I'm not sure whether I can stand too much pressure tho.
Based on what I've been experiencing, I can only tolerate a few.
My friends have become a backbone for me.
They're there whenever I need them.
I can never thank you enough for being blessed with such friends !

To be honest, I think this post is irrelevant.
Well, I write whenever I feel like writing.
Even though there's not much to write about but...its something I can't describe.

Silver Linings Playbook


"Every cloud has a silver lining"

To those who are wondering what does silver lining means, its a saying that says every bad situation will have an element of good. In other words, the bad things that's happening will always have a good cause. I just finished watching this movie and it was great. It makes you think that in all of that chaos you're having, there will always be hope to find peace and happiness.

Personally, I really like Jennifer Lawrence. She has this distinct characteristics that makes her different from other people. She's truthful to herself and she's just being who she is. I started liking her from the movie, "The Hunger Games". She played the role well. I don't know if this differs from who she is in real life but she seems to be a very strong and impulsive woman.

Back to the story, this idiom, silver lining, makes me think about everything I'm struggling to cope with now, will bring good effects towards my life. Perhaps its teaching me on how to be positive and to never give up. Or might as well, get your life straighten up before doing anything else. Hey, I'm just saying. 
God has everything planned and of course, life has its ups and downs. You can never stay the same cause if you do, life will be boring. The bad things that happen will make you cherish the good moments you have. And to cherish the good moments, you need to start living for every single moment that's happening no matter huge or small. You shouldn't become like one of the zombies in "The Walking Dead", they are so lifeless and dull. 

This movie also reminded me of this one saying, count your blessings. Perhaps by counting your blessings, you'll feel more positive of the things you have in your life. Each person in this world are born different. Some have unique skills and some might even be... unique. You should never change yourself for people to accept you cause trust me, they won't. Stop trying to become something you're not and instead, be yourself. There's nothing better than being yourself. Hey, you are who you are and people should shut their mouth for judging you. 

I guess this is it for this entry,
thanks for reading.

Hollow

Its been a really hectic month for me. September must've been the worst month for me this year. I'm trying to cope with everything around me. I lose my temper sometimes and I feel down without a reason. Well maybe there are several reasons that made me down. Forget about that. Let's continue on with the story.
I've been going up and down hills of emotions. One day I'm happy and the next I'm not. Its so stressful nowadays. I wish I have a skip button for September and just fast forward myself to October. I don't know why but I lost my appetite lately and my body keeps on shaking whenever I'm stressed. This is so not healthy. I haven't got the chance to go out and just chill out.. Due to this stupid examination. I thought I've grabbed hold of my negativity and threw them out the window but boy how I was wrong. At least its not as worse as it was 2 weeks ago. I need help but I don't know where should I turn to. Everyone is busy with their own lives and I'm here standing all alone under the rain. Holding myself together for a slight sense of warmth. Its cold and I'm alone. Maybe I'm over thinking things or maybe I'm not. I noticed that I've grown further away from people who I'm close with. Or might as well call it people who I'm USED to be close with.

About yesterday...
I was so upset at someone for not replying any of my text messages and made me feel like a dumbass waiting for a reply. I could have just let go of it if it was a one time thing but this one no. I was extremely furious and I kind of scolded him for it. Maybe its his way of texting but seriously, is it hard to even reply a simple OK for several text messages ? After what happened last night, my body went haywire cause I can't control my hands, in particular, from shaking. Maybe its a sign from my body that it can't handle anymore stress. After several hours.. I rethink of what I did and what I did was inappropriate. It made me regret that I might've hurt my best friend for such stupid thing. I could always forgive and forget but maybe this time it's because everyone who I used to open up to are no longer here for me and that I needed at least one friend to open up with and as I texted that person, that person didn't give any response whatsoever. I feel bad at the same time I feel stupid. I don't know what will happen tomorrow but I hope everything is still OK between us. 

HOW STUPID CAN I BE WHEN I'M ANGRY.

Top !

Introducing my chinese teacher, Miss Sun from China.
Today was actually our final day for our first semester.
I was pretty much unprepared for my finals but I put in everything I got.
While we were eating earlier today, Miss Sun announced the
highest scorer of our final exam. I wasn't expecting much and
it turned out to be me ! I nearly choked eating my chicken drumstick 
as she announced it ! I received a gift from China as promised and
it's filled with ancient styled souvenirs from Xi An China.



Here is the photo of the box. As written, Zhong Guo Xi An.
Today was the best day of the whole semester. I can't wait for the next one to start.
=) I really appreciate the gift

Hello September


Time flies fast indeed. Without even realizing, its already the first day of September !
In just 17 days from now, I will be sitting for my final exam of the year. Not to forget, my birthday is just a month away ! I can't wait to be officially 16. I have so many plans ahead.



Yesterday, 31st of August, was Malaysia's independence day (56th Anniversary). 57 years ago, everyone lived in fear as the Japanese army took over the land. Well that ended by the year 1957 ! Thankfully Malaysia has been at peace for more than half a century. Tho my ancestors are foreigners (mostly from Brunei), I was born here in Malaysia and I would proudly say that I'm a Malaysian.

A Jog At The Park


A Jog At The Park with Mei and Elcy.
I can't believe I actually can jog for 4+ km.
Tbh, this is my first attempt ever.
I just love the warm evening air and the scenery at the park.
I could've enjoyed my jog more if I brought my hands-free along. 

Below are the pictures
(beware of the deadly poses)



We had fun although it's really tiring.
2 rounds per rest. Wait wait.. does that even makes sense ?
Thanks to Mei's iPhone, we got to know how far we jogged.
I'm not the runner type but it's not wrong to try right ? heh

Thanks for dropping by :)

Quotes


I'm entrusted with this so called "inspiring quotes". I was given this job for almost 2 months now yet, I kept on forgetting every single time. I googled some good inspiring quotes and this is is the outcome. I just copied the quote from the internet and then designed the rest. Its time to practice my Photoshop editing skill. It's quoted, "Change your thoughts and change your world" by Norman Vincent Peale. This quote is true. In order for you to change your world (the way you live), you need to change your way of thinking first. The mind is a very powerful tool. It controls and monitors every single thing we do and the way we think will result in actions. It's either you start thinking positively or might as well negatively. Both will impact you in their own special way.

The conclusion is, in order for you to change your life, you need to start thinking more positively.
The law of attraction will always do it's magic. It's up to you whether you want to make your life miserable or happy. Do your best and don't ever give up. Well that's what I keep on telling myself.

Thanks for reading.

20th August


I just bought myself a Photoshop software and I didn't know much on how to use it. So far it's good and this is my first creation using simple brushes available in that software. Oh well, everybody was once a newbie right ? I hope I can master the whole thing and might as well help decorating the blog using PS.

Thanks for reading, I'll update more later.

Depression


"My real enemy is myself."

To be honest, I found that phrase when I was searching for a picture via Google. If you want to know why, its because we are bringing ourselves down to reach rock bottom. When you over think, problems that weren't even there in the first place, exist due to your own actions. I'm getting a lot of symptoms of stress lately but I don't really know what is stressing me. Either it's lack of sleep (I'm able to sleep only for 4 hours a day due to my busy schedule at school and other curricular classes) or might as well be the side-effects of caffeine. I went through depression earlier this year due to my excessive thinking about problems that weren't even real which eventually became a migraine issue to me. I consulted with my doctor and he said that you should sleep more, don't over think and lay off the caffeine. A few months later, the early symptoms are coming back. Perhaps maybe I'm always thinking about my final exam this September and for the fact that I underwent this thing called "Semakan Nota" (Notes Reconciliation). I had to complete every notes I made from January until now in just a week. That made me extremely stressed and might be the main cause of my stressfulness. As they say, as you grow older, the more stress you will receive and you just have to be strong enough to lift it aside. 

Headache.

As we stood in our school hall for our routine Monday Assembly, my friends and I were all surprised to know that we have school this Saturday. Talking about ruining my chance of having a relaxation. I don't know but I think this stress can be good and might even bad. It's the way you confront this issue. Either you put it as a motivation to improve yourself or just use this as an excuse.

Maybe the main problem for is me that I just hate being annoyed or bothered whenever I'm doing something to release my stress. I get annoyed fast lately. I'm just not being myself. This feels like deja vu. It's like how I was on January. Sigh. I need some time alone and might even take one day as an escape from all this unnecessary nuisance. That will help by loads. My main idea for now is getting close to nature and be around places that's secluded and has a stream or might even look at the sunset. I haven't done that for awhile. For now I can only suppress my negativity and try to minimize it.

IT Fair

 
Today was the final day of the IT Fair event at 1 Borneo and I finally bought some decent stuffs because my parents are present. Everything is cheaper than ever whenever this kind of event takes place. I bought a 500GB Toshiba Portable Hard Drive for only RM149.00 (which is kind of cheap). My dad, on the other hand, bought a new laptop as I took his latest laptop so that I don't need to buy any. I actually went to this event on it's first day but I only brought a hundred bucks so I couldn't find something decent to buy except for an 8GB pen-drive.  Everything was fine for the day. Didn't get to snap some pictures cause my phone's battery was almost drained.
That's it for today.

I-Quiz : Team 21



I actually came too early (6:15am to be exact) but then when I arrived, not even a soul was seen... 
I decided to go back home which is kilometers away from the venue.
The school was really nice tho I had to admit. It felt like I was in Taiwan or something and its
maybe because of the surrounding environment. I should have taken a panorama
photo of the school compound. So many participants from our school came and I was actually
shocked ! I never thought that there would be 10 groups from my school alone.
10 groups participated from my school, only 1 survived the preliminary round.

 
Here we are ! Team 21. We actually came up with the name out of the blue.
We tried so many names for our group but not even one was decent.
The day turned out well and we had a really awesome experience thanks to this quiz.

Congratulations to Kian Kok Middle School for being 1st runner up.
Not to forget everyone else who participated this competition,
I hope to be seeing everyone again next year.

Thanks for reading =D

Team 7 : Deficient



SasuSakuNaru


Well here it is, the all so awesome mug of Sushi King.
Today's RR3 is deficient, incomplete & doesn't feel like how it used to feel.

I don't really have much to say about this or that.
The main point is I hung out with Team 7 for the first time after awhile.
I enjoyed sushi and ate loads of Tuna Mayo(s). I just have this weakness for tuna.
Talked about things we normally do. Typical stuffs. 
I didn't expect that I would end up with only one picture for today.

Change

Honestly speaking, the thing I'm worried about and most importantly hate about is, change.
It's weird how time can change people and the changes that we go through within even just 2 years. I'm not saying that changes are all bad. Its just that sometimes through that phase, change, your relationship with your friends become ever more apart. Through what I see, some of my friends (not all) that moved away or might as well moved for a better life, changed within just a month after they moved. They don't really contact me much as they did before they moved. This is saddening. Well maybe it's natural for people to forget people they were close to after moving away. Like hey, nobody can stay the same forever right ?

"Change means moving on from the past in order to reach out for the future"

Oh well, I guess that quote kind of makes sense. If only I can, I would like to pause time and just live through my happy moments over and over again. That reminded me of something in the movie "Suddenly Its Magic". Its something about when you live that day over and over again, that day will become just like any ordinary day. Let it be special because you can never relive it and you can finally start cherishing precious moments you have with your family and friends. That's a start.

I read Neila's & Bobbi's blog earlier before updating,

To Neila : Don't ever give up on what you want most. The best things comes earned. You can always find your way around like it's the 21st century for crying out loud. I've seen many successful bloggers around Malaysia and also Singapore. Who knows you might get good feedback in the near future and might as well earn something from the thing you love to do most. I wish you good luck and gambatteh !

To Bobbi : I just started following you so hey, good luck coping with your college life. Write more next time (if you have the time for it). Writing is good for the mind so what more could you ask for ? haha 


I have to go now but I'll surely update about today's activity. It's our 3rd Ramen Reunion (probably 2nd) with Team 7. I hope you guys the best of luck chasing your dreams !

Imperfections


"Before we speak of others, we must mirror ourselves first."

Well the lesson that I pretty much learned today is nobody is perfect. Everybody have their own flaws and defects. There's no need to point out what others are lacking when we, ourselves, are imperfect. Do not think that we are somehow better than others or might as well be narcissistic as God can always take back whatever it is that you have in a blink of an eye.

I feel sorry to those who are constantly judging people (I sometimes do without realizing). I am just a mere human being. A human being which isn't excluded from doing mistakes. Don't mind me but when I see others judging and pointing out flaws of other people makes me sick to the stomach. We need to respect others so that others will respect us in return. Its easy to say but pretty much hard to do because if its easy to do, I bet the world wouldn't be how it is now. We can never escape from being judged by other mortals as it is a common nature. All we can do is just persevere from all negativity and focus on God's point of view. As His judgment matters most.

From what I see, before talking about other people, we must always mirror ourselves first. This is a way to improve what's lacking tho you can't actually recover 100% of all flaws but that, my friend, what makes us US. Different personalities and different imperfections make us unique. Each person is unique tho there might be a few common characteristics that can be found but we still are different from each other.

This is my first post in August and I wish all muslims Selamat Hari Raya.
Thanks for reading !

3 days to August


Tbh, I didn't notice how time flies so quick. It's like it was only a week ago when I posted Welcoming July.
Oh well like how people say it, time does not wait for men. When I look at it, I still remember how I was in January. Thinking, "How can I survive another 9 months of school when it's already hard enough to cope on the first month". For me now, I feel like I'm gonna miss this year like how I miss the years before. It's the moments I have with my friends that I'll miss the most. Knowing that I can never go back to the past. I will surely miss it. 

Perhaps this is a wake up call..
Our finals is on September and I think I better start revising all of the topics that I can't understand. To think of it, 2013 is ending.. 2014 will be my final year as a high school student. After 2014, 80% possibility that I'm going to the Philippines to continue my study and that goes to each and everyone of my friends with their own destinations. I hope we'll stay close as how we are now for years to come. I'll miss the crazy moments I had with you guys.

2014, seems like I can't travel that often for this year. It's my SPM year.. Never thought that I would be taking this exam next year.. Oh God. I shall prepare my armor and head for battle. My friends and I are planning to go to Bali once we graduated high school, I hope it'll go on as planned cause I'm pretty excited about this. It's like our farewell party before everyone head for their own path to follow. 


You guys are the best friends I couldn't even have asked for.
Tho not all of my best friends are in this picture but still,
a picture is worth a thousand words.
I can never thank you enough for all the wonderful moments
we've had together. It's been a great pleasure to know you guys.

Reconciliation


"Peace doesn't come freely as told, peace is something earned."


My life has been hectic lately. Perhaps it's because of the act of procrastinating wins over me every single time I want to do something productive. I am trying to change my routine of being unproductive into something better. Things doesn't change in a minute. I'm still trying to cope. I'm afraid that I might lose myself in this mess. Confused and helpless, I'm still trying to figure out what is the right thing to do. Maybe I'm over thinking things or might as well making a fuss out of nothing. I'm trying to find my inner peace. Words mean nothing while actions mean everything. I keep on saying that I want to change but my body resists to accept it. It's like I'm stuck between two orders in my mind. I should take things slow and collect all the missing pieces of myself that I've lost a long time ago. That's it for now.

Thanks for reading =)

Flying


Credits to the rightful owner of the picture

The path I chose as a career is surrounded with travelling. This is pretty much my passion as I like to visit other places in this beautiful world God made. I still have about a year to prepare myself for SPM (O lvl Malaysian standard) and then InsyaAllah I'm off to the flight academy.

My choice of reference whenever I have any questions about this particular career are my sister who's a pilot-to-be in the Philippines and Captain Lim K.H. Both are pretty helpful for exposing me to the aviation industry. I'd like to say thank you for your help as it's as I said it, helpful.

It may sound like a walk in the park when I say I'm off to the flight academy. Actually, there are loads of things to keep in mind about. The fee for instance, the aviation won't cost you 15K or somewhere around that digit. Oh no that's where you're wrong. It actually costs around 300K-400K in Malaysia but it's cheaper in the Philippines. Around 180-260K. Health test or whatever they call it, there are different classes and different qualifications to pass it. Depending on which type of license you're taking. Actually, the minimum age to apply for SPL (Student Pilot License) is 16. I thought that the flying clubs in Malaysia use the same condition but I was wrong (At least I think I am). They don't do singular license course. They combine SPL with PPL which requires the minimum age of 17 to apply. So I guess I need to wait for another year to be qualified.

To all people out there who are planning to choose the same path I am,
I wish you best of luck and hope to see you in the aviation world.


Thanks for reading =)

who are interested in becoming a pilot.

Welcoming July


"Let go of the past, Hope best for the future,
and cherish the present."

Time flew by fast that I actually lost track of time. Sheesh another 4 months until finishing my form 4 year and another 5 months before my SPM year. I've been unable to control whatever that is is in my schedule. Sad for me actually. Its been a really busy week that's why I couldn't update anything but hey, I am now.

1st July 2013,
This was the day where I performed in front of almost everyone at school and yes, as this was my first performance in front of a huge audience, everything went haywire. Though I failed to deliver my best, I can always try another time. Well as they say it, you won't achieve success without going through failure. As an ex-music student, both piano and vocal, I took it hard because it felt like I disappointed myself. For once I would like to show my parents that the music classes I took weren't something useless but then for this first time live performance, I weren't able to do so. Performing in front of an examiner is different than performing in front of a crowd. Sheesh. Well experience is everything and I learned valuable things from what I've experienced first hand yesterday.

That's what happened on the first day of July. 
I can always try again next year. We won't fail forever unless we give up trying.
Good job to all other students of LY on their performance yesterday.
You did well and don't give up singing. Heh. 
We still have a long way to go so just don't give up and keep trying !

Thanks for reading and have a pleasant month ahead.
Peace.

Spanish Day


"Mark Santiago D'Marquez Maurer Syeikh Ahmad al-Jaafar"

To start off the story, our add maths teacher didn't come to our class earlier. My friends and I were bored so we started to play this Spanish Naming Game. We can make our own Spanish names and the longer it is, the better it sounds ! Its like a tongue twister actually but I actually like this name. I supposed to put Mizan in the front but I'm too lazy too type it in because its long enough. heh.

Mark is actually the name of a movie character and Santiago D'Marquez is something I made up by myself. *I hope theres no bad meaning behind it*. Maurer is the family name of a Thai actor whom I idolize. Ahmad is my father's name and Jaafar is actually my late-grandfather's. So this name is actually a mix between Spanish, German and Arab. Mark D'Marquez Maurer for short =D
My friends made wonderful names as well but too bad I can't really recall it as it is longer than mine. Sorry guys. 

So basically this is all that I want to share with you guys tonight.
Hope you guys love the name.

Thanks for reading !

24th of June


"A thousand miles and as far as the eyes can see,
that is how my love for you is."

24th of June is a date to remember. My heart has now officially been taken by a smart and goodhearted girl.
I am glad to call her mine as she is now the keeper of my heart.

Peace & Good Night

Hazy Sunday


Awkward pose tbh.


The haze in Kota Kinabalu has never been this epic. If you can see it with your own eyes, you can't even see the shades of the beautiful hills and mountains here in this particular area. And again for yesterday, I went out with my sister but this time for a different agenda. She was actually eager to shop as she is.. as I call it.. a shopaholic. Its nothing bad actually except for the fact that I stood there hours accompanying her. Typical thing for a guy with sisters as siblings.

Later that night..
We went to eat at Fook Yuen. As some of you who knows me well might know, I have a weak spot for dim sum. I can't resist the smell and no matter how hard I try, I end up eating them.  If only I took a few pictures of the dim sum just to show you how irresistible it was. You will drool of the deliciousness. Thats pretty much what I did yesterday.

Thanks for reading =)

Australia !



A so called selfie of mine in the middle of the night. 

This entry should've been posted yesterday but I didn't get the chance to use the laptop so I'll be uploading this today. So basically my sister just came back from Brisbane, Australia for her one month holiday. She's there for studying psychology. Its been about 4 months since she last came back so I'm pretty much not alone now. Which is a good thing of course. 
  
She bought me a Polaroid camera from Australia.
Yeay me !

I had one of this camera last year for my birthday but sadly my other sister borrowed it and the plastic of the camera melted as she put it in the arm compartment in the car. I don't really quite know how that would melt the plastic but based on the weather here where I'm living, it's not impossible. We went to watch Man Of Steel which was pretty epic and the movie ended at 11pm or so. I was exhausted because we went back to my late-grandfather's house for an event which was about 90km away from where I live. I noticed something tho, whenever my sister comes back from Australia, our first meal will always be at Secret Recipe. I must tell you that the lasagne there is extremely delicious. You should try it if you haven't had one there. Just a suggestion heh. So this post has come to an end, will surely update some more in the near future.

Thanks for reading !

30th May 2013


30th May 2013 - Bangkok, Thailand

Regarding this particular date, I went to Bangkok for the first time ever. Its one of the best places I've ever been all my life. I felt really at home there and I don't know why. The culture was familiar for me as I can pretty much mix with every asian country in South East Asia. The people there were welcoming and quite polite as I must say. Too bad I can't really show some pictures of the place as you know how apple's smartphone is with non-apple products when it comes to bluetooth sharing. Sucks.. I know.

Bangkok is pretty much the shopaholic destination. Its also called as "The Shopping Paradise" as everything comes in good quality and in such low prices. Taxis are pretty decent and can be found almost everywhere in Thailand. A good thing actually but the main problem is the language barrier. If you're lucky enough, you might meet a taxi driver who can actually speak English but if you don't.. a simple sign language is understandable worldwide. 

I actually met this aunt who was actually a Chinese Thai. This is the good thing for mandarin speakers as mandarin are used almost everywhere in Asian countries. She was quite nice and pretty committed. I'll surely love to meet her again when I come back. Everything seemed magical especially at night near the Siam Paragon and Siam Square. Bangkok is pretty much alive as it is in the morning as it is at night. My worst mistake was not going to the International Wax Museum or another name for it is.. I forgot. Its like the one in Hong Kong where you can find wax sculptures of international artists that looks exactly the one in real life.

Well that's it for today's post. My hope is for me to have a chance to come back to Bangkok within this very year. Bangkok is indeed my favorite destination.

Perks of being me


"16. Austronesian. Pilot-to-be."

These 3 things might sum everything up about me. I don't really wanna brag all about myself here so I'll just keep it short. I'm 16, from Land Below the Wind and my dream is to be a pilot. This is actually my second blog now. This one is more for fun type of blog. 

Basically, I still have 1 and a half years until my SPM so I still have a long way to go. English is perhaps my main language whenever I post anything online. Its because English is understandable worldwide so yeah.
This is just a new beginning so don't expect much from this blog. Yet, if you're reading, I'll thank you for voluntarily coming and reading such nonsense about me. Get to know me better before making any assumptions. People nowadays are judgmental. It's so hard to come around without being judged but for me all of those hateful comments are just irrelevant. 
I'll post some more when I have the chance. 

Thanks for reading.
