Waiting

Hmmmmmm..................................

I am waiting all right. My family and I are going to see New Moon tonight. I just realized I am wearing the same blue sweater that I wore when I saw Twilight last year. hahahahahah.... severe wardrobe upgrade detected here much..... XD

Anyway, I sure hope this super-hyped movie doesn't disappoint. New Moon has a lot to live up to..*seriously what the hell is this dungu saying??, he hasn't even read the Twilight Saga*.

I have spent the day hepling my mum out in anticipation of Hari Raya Aidiladha tomorrow. Believe me when I say peeling onions especially, shallots or bawang merah, is excruiating. I haven't cried sooo bad in a long time. Mopping is no ball either. You ungrateful ingrates should kiss your mum's feet. I mean, she really has to suffer in order to keep things in tip top shape.

On the sunny side of things though, the rendang ayam my siblings and I helped to prepare is simply to die for. In fact the process of making it is quite murdersome when you give it a thought.

To wrap up, I'd like to wish Selamat Hari Raya Aidiladha to all. For those of you who are old enough, have a perfect set of teeth and are in the pink of health; be ready. The AJK Korban Surau will be coming for you....... Peace out yo'!!!!

FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!

Hello, hello!!! Much to your joy or dismay, I am still alive and writing. I make it a point these days to only update my blog if I feel like doing it. Otherwise, I'll be doing something much more pressing.

I am happy to announce that my final exams which began on October 27th, have ended on last Wednesday, November 11th. Boy oh boy!!! Those were the longest two and half weeks of my short life sooooo far.... With the shortest paper lasting for a whole hour, to the longest which drains your brain for two and half hours, SPM format exams should be on Fear Factor. Imagine writing two essays, one between 200-250 words long and the other more than 350 words within the short span of two hours dan 15 minutes. Any person leaving the class for recess and mental reconstruction will find loss of feeling in their head and writing hand. Your fingers may be bruised slightly. Don't worry though, when you get the straight A's that you've been working sooo damn hard for, all those things go away....

The pure self satisfaction of doing well and proving to yourself that you can rise above is the best painkiller in the world, even better than morfin . LOL!!!!!

But for me and other fellow Malaysian, who are sixteen and have finished Form 4 this year, this is only our first battle against the greater war that looms in the near future. Yes that's right people, come next January we'll be in Form Five and 11 months down the road, the SPM we shall sit for. But that doesn't mean you still can't have fun every now and then. Truth be told, I ain't even studiying right now.

That would be road kill. I sure as hell want and deserve a break for now. Any hoooo.... right now I want to enjoy my short weeks of freedom. But come December 1st, I'll have to start studiying for next year and revising for this year. A word of advice: To go to form five without having a strong form 4 base would be SUICIDE!!!!!

As for this year, it is once again passing by me like and evening thunderstrom. It comes unannounced, has a whirlwind fling and then leaves abruptly with the coming dawn like a one night stand. But as always, it has been a memorable one. Bitter sweet. Always a new experience that tests me and matures me.

The best one is being the school photographer this year and deputy editor-in-chief of my school magazine, SUAMATRA. A special thanks to my three friends who have been with all the way: Fatin Nabilah Azman, Ili Nadiah Ibrahim, and Wan Syafiqah Wan Badaruddin. My Saving Angels from 4 Aset 2009.

I look forward to the return of my fellow Dons from abroad. Hopefully we can all go bowling with all our peeps and hang out at Mid Valley.
