Would I run away?

"I've found it."

"What?"

"Eternity. It's the sun mingled with the sea."

And curse the moon so bold and bright
My heavy soul can't stand the light
It burns me straight to the bones
My bones.

Here's your AU prompt, Ryan Capps. I owe you a HG, you owe me a IGH.

So much debate over the use of the word Allah has been brought up this past week. It's so unecessary, really. I mean, if the government is going to do the whole "1Malaysia" thing, then they should actually start making Malaysia into a whole, not a divided state where arsonists burn churches and protestors rally over every little thing.

Well, first thing's first.

2010NESS. THE AWESOMENESS. OF 2010NESS.

This month has been so aptly dubbed Plan-uary. Because I have many things to plan.

So, hope school turns out good fer everyone, as I venture into another year of Pi madness. We have lost three quarters of the 2009 Pions, the 3K, Chinese Fellas and the Girlz included, so, there's a lot less noise now.

The teachers swoon over our quietness in class. Lol.

HAS RETURNED TO TWITTER BADALANDABADBOOOOOOM.

Recess Revolution!!!! This Thursday, people! Spread the love, and help us, if you're a CF member of SMKSU. If not, then just come on Thursday, and enjoy the surprise. :)

Well, off to school then. Hold on. Last minute shout-outs.

Needs to inspiration for Bleach and FF7 fics. Help wanted. Reward: a fic fer yerself as well.

RYAAAAAAN do you know how complicated it is to draw someone playing the piano? Be grateful it's your birthday, man. Happy Birthday again. I love ya. Cheers.

Oh, and Ryan? Tell Mikey I said hi. I miss those glasses of his, yea? Oh, and remind him that if he runs away again, I'll take a baseball bat to his face. So, yeah. Happy 2010 to both of you. And that awesome CF of yours.

Cheerio, blog people.

Feeling Down, Cause He Ain't Around

2010-01-11T11:57:00.002+08:00

'Lo, choodessny mates. Been feeling a little sad this week, even though there's been so many things to distract myself with.

I might post something on life as a new Pi-oneer, but not today.

For now, here's a little poem, about why I'm kinda down.

A Best Friend.

He made me laugh
He made me smile
He made me know
For a little while
That I had a best friend
One who’d care
But now that’s gone
I have to share
That wonderful person
I once knew so well
Still as we are
No longer best of pals
We can still exchange
That occasional smile
Of understanding
And it will be
One day
You and me
Once again.

Nat.

Schoolie Isie Tomorrowie

2010-01-03T14:38:00.001+08:00

OH NOES. OH NOES.

SCHOOL STARTS.

TOMORROW.

the horrorz. oh the horrorz.

2012... erhmm, I mean... 2010 IS HERE!

2010-01-03T04:15:00.003+08:00

Lookie, I changed my blog header and colour again. Bonus points if anyone can figure out how the blog name and header are related.

Oh, and have a Frank to start off the year, then.

(totally shameless editing in the pic above, ahaha. i just love pics where iero or one of the ways or toro or bryar is holding up editable things, like paper, man, those are fun to work with. :P)

2009 has come and gone. And now, 2010 is here.

The start of a new year. A new decade. A new beginning.

Last year had been the most life changing year I'd ever known, and this year? I only hope it can match up to the last.

I honestly believe that 2010 is going to bring some brand new things, events, people, days, fun, memories, sadness, ups and downs, adventures, relationships and tons more. It's just how you see the world the day after tomorrow.

Well, as far as this goes, it's 4:29 in the morning, and I am exhausted from waiting up to see my movie finish downloading. One word: Hitsugaya-awesomeness. Yes, it is one word. :P

Okay, then. Enjoy 2010, folks, and remember.

It's okay to smile once in a while.

Nat. R. LXK

It's only...

2009-12-29T21:09:00.003+08:00

THREE

THREE MORE DAYS TO

2010!!!!!

Tis the season to be jolly....

2009-12-23T21:13:00.002+08:00

FA LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LAAAA.

Can you believe it? Just two days to Christmas! It feels like July right now, but the Christmas tree over here proves otherwise.

I'm at my cousins' house in Kampung TImah, Perak, and we're-- they're-- watching a Chinese soap thing. Kinda involves martial arts and some stuff, but eh. It's cool.

Presents are under the tree, but I get to open mine early, cause I'M COMING BACK TO SUBANG!!! :D

Tomorrow me and my mami are taking the bus early in the morning. (hopefully AFTER the AI:8 rerun XD)

Wahhhhh. Christmas. The time for giving, receiving, and most of all, sharing. I'd love to post a scary-long post on the importance of Christmas right now, but unfortunately, my PC time is limited to 9:30.

*checks* Ten minutes to go then. Better finish up mah FB business. Ahahah.

Well, I'd like to say one thing for now: Reminisce.

Tis the time to look back, and remember all those great memories you've gained over the years, around this special time of year. My favourite thing to do during Christmasses (and the cookies, oh the cookies)

Busying myself right now with "How The Irish Did It" and "Winter Pieces", two short stories I'm going to write soon for January. Hopefully I'll finish with the Irish one first. Those lads are running around in my mind madly, wanting to be let out soon.

Ahh. My time's up. Gotta go now. Blog ya laterrr.

Cheers, and a Merry Xmas.

Nat.

2009-12-13T23:03:00.003+08:00

Helloooo. I haven't blogged in a while. Mind's been occupied with summat, so it mighta been that a way.

Irvine Welsh's tendencies of sorting a Scottish accent 'as been befitting onto meself. It's rather catchay, goes to say. 'Specially since them trainspotters got nuthin' to it, en Sick Boy's a lad of many teelants. Ahah.

Okay, okay, stopping now. XD Trainspotting's narrative is just a whisrlwind of peculiar accents, spellings and pronunciations.

BTW, just watched some parts of Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core on Youtube. Practically bawled my eyes out after seeing Zack die. Man, was Cloud upset. They were best friends. *sniff* Poor Cloud. No wonder he becomes all emo in Advent Children.

A preview for ya lovely lads en lassies. Lol.

OOH, OOH. I balik kampung on Tuesday, so I won't be here for maybe a week or so? Well, it'll be good to see the old gang again. My former best friend/cousin/banana/happy fruit 99, can't wait to see her. ADVENTURES AHOY. MWAHAHAHA.

I miss Bambi. She's the dog. She's the cutest thing ever. And she wards off mean cats. :D

And, now, I shall stop rambing, and just add some more nonsense.

WHY DID SQEENIX KILL HIM OFF NOOOOOO. ARGHHH. HUMBUG.

Cheers.

Nat.

Okay, so I totally fail. At this. Thing. Called. NaNoWriMo.

2009-12-05T03:10:00.006+08:00

I FAILZ.

THE HORRORRRZ.

: O

Well, it was expected that I wouldn't live through NaNoWriMo anyways.

Sorry, my dear boys. I'm afraid you have to wait till the next November to become fully fledged characters.

Jeremy, stop glaring. Mikey, stop squeezing James to death. He needs to mourn too. And Nick, I see you're taking this well? Oh, she's came after you, then? My bad.

Yes, I talk to my book characters. It helps me establish things. Like how Nick came to meet with a very real-life inspired person called Clo... okay, really, the book-her will kick me if I reveal any details. And how James got that scar on his shoulder. Which, of course, is not relevant to the story anyway, but still is interesting.

Next year, I will start again. And that time, I will finish it.

I WILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL.

I promised.

Nat.

PS JEREMY BELLMONTE! Stop bloomin' yelling at that poor private! He's already having to deal with Yvette, non? Then, quit it! Mios Dio, that boy!

Yes, Mikey. I never cease to amaze.

I'm Ready

2009-12-03T14:29:00.002+08:00

I remember those days, when I was younger, my mum and I would sit in the living room, listening to old CDs on this black radio that we've lost already. There was this one CD I really loved, and this one song I really loved. Such a simple song, really.

But still, now, it makes so much more sense to me, listening to it again today.

In spite of everything that's happened this year, I can finally say those two words.

I'm Ready - Tracy Chapman.

I want to wake up and know where I'm going
Say I'm ready
Say I'm ready

I want to go where the rivers are overflowing and
I'll be ready
I'll be ready to let the rivers wash over me
I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me

If the waters can redeem me
I'm ready
I'm ready

I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me
I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me

I want to wake up
I want to know where I'm going
I want to go where the rivers are over-flowing

I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me
I'm ready
I'm ready ...

Why Did The Chicken Cross The Road?

2009-12-01T14:35:00.005+08:00

Find out what the people have to say.

Taken from: Chuck's Musings

SARAH PALIN: Before it got to the other side, I shot the chicken, cleaned and dressed it, and had chicken burgers for lunch.

BARACK OBAMA: The chicken crossed the road because it wartime for a change! The chicken wanted change!

JOHN MC CAIN: My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road.

HILLARY CLINTON: When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure right from Day One that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn't about me.

GEORGE W. BUSH: We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not. The chicken is either against us or for us. There is no middle ground here.

DICK CHENEY: Where's my gun?

COLIN POWELL: Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road.

BILL CLINTON: I did not cross the road with that chicken. What is your definition of chicken?

AL GORE: I invented the chicken.

JOHN KERRY: Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it! It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken's intentions. I am not for it now and will remain against it.

AL SHARPTON: Why are all the chickens white? We need some black chickens.

DR. PHIL: The problem we have here is that this chicken doesn’t realize that he must first deal with the problem on this side of the road before it goes after the problem on the other side of the road. What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his current problems before adding new problems.

OPRAH: Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'm going to give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and not live his life like the rest of the chickens.

ANDERSON COOPER, CNN: We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed
access to the other side of the road.

NANCY GRACE: That chicken crossed the road because he’s guilty! You can see it in his eyes and the way he walks.

PAT BUCHANAN: To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.

MARTHA STEWART: No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had a standing order at the Farmer’s Market to sell my eggs when the price dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider information.

DR SEUSS: Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I've not been told.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY: To die in the rain, alone.

GRANDPA: In my day we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.

BARBARA WALTERS: Isn't that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart-warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting and went on to accomplish its lifelong dream of crossing the road.

ARISTOTLE: It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.

JOHN LENNON: Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace.

BILL GATES: I have just released eChicken 2008, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook. Internet Explorer is an integral part of eChicken 2008. This new platform is much more stable and will never crash or need to be rebooted.

ALBERT EINSTEIN: Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?

COLONEL SANDERS: Did I miss one?

Of colour and composition, so magnetic

2009-11-30T03:18:00.002+08:00

Oh well. It's pretty much back to the drawing board, then.

So... bored...

Saw a certain someone at SP today. Had half a mind to go into SK.

Oh, and I have reconnected with GW's voice. Yep. That sentence makes no sense to you, but it does to me. :P

Guitar, geetar, keytar, eat tar you mice.

New Prompt: Colour, masquerade, masks, feathers, dances, gold, stage, magic.

I got this really cool mug from SP today after guitar class, and it's like, customised. It has my name on it in Kirsten ITC font, and a picture of MCR beside the handle. It's too cool.

*squees*

I watched Saw 6 tonight. It was very, very, gruesome, and twisted, and horrible, and torrid.

I went for this bookfair, at Amcorp Mall, and I bought 22 new books.

22 BOOKS OH YEAAAAAH.

Got two books by Irvine Welsh, and a few more Vintage books, and Conversations With God: Two & Three; The Bible Code 1 & 2, a mini bible with Genesis, Exodus and Song of Songs, with illustrated pages. Very nice. And also Apocalypse: 2012: An Optimist's Opinion, and Rant. And also like, six more books, but hey. Who's counting.

POIIIISE, AAAAAND, RATIONALITYYYYYY.

I miss the old Panic.

"Looks like you'll make it to 50 this time."

2009-11-27T03:42:00.002+08:00

I've just finished watching this incredible movie, and decided that hey, why don't I blog about it?

But, then again, it is rather controversial, once you see it from a certain angle.

Milk (2008)

Harvey Milk. A man with courage. With strength. With hope. He was so brave in standing up for what he believed in, even though the 1970's were times of turmoil back in San Francisco, USA.

Harvey Milk, an activist and politician; and the first openly gay man to be elected into public office in The United States of America. In 1977, he was voted into the city supervisor's board of San Francisco.

For many of his public speeches, he would always open with the line, "Hello, I'm Harvey Milk, and I'm here to recruit you." It was his most famous saying back then, becoming something of his signature, way back when the whole activist scene had just opened new doors for his campaign.

The movie is more or less a non-documentary feature on the true story of Harvey Milk, and heavily researched into every single one of the roles, right down to the last shoeshiner.

Sean Penn plays Harvey Milk, and James Franco is cast as his lover, Scott Smith, whereas some other roles, his friends and colleagues and supporters, all a wonderfully portrayed cast, working together really well throughout the entire movie.

The movie starts off with Harvey in New York, where he meets Scott, coming back from work. There's some interaction, and it's just light and flirty with a right bit of amusement. This was the start of that love that would last until his dying breath.

Then, the movie switches over to San Francisco, where Harvey and Scott have moved to, searching for a change in their lives. They found the Castro Camera, in the once Irish-Catholic but now predominantly gay neighbourhood called The Castro. The Castro is the birthplace of Harvey Milk's campaigning and everything began in that small shop called Castro Camera.

Harvey utilizes his background as a businessman to become a gay activist, eventually becoming a mentor for Cleve Jones. Early on, Scott serves as Harvey's campaign manager, but his frustration grows with Harvey's devotion to politics, and he leaves him. Harvey later meets Jack Lira, a sweet-natured but unbalanced young man. As with Scott, Jack cannot tolerate Harvey's devotion to political activism, and eventually hangs himself.

After two somewhat unsucessful attempts to become a city supervisor in San Francisco, he finally wins a seat on the third try in 1977. Then began one of the most enthusiastic and enthralling campaigns for gay rights in the history of America. There were marches, and there were speeches. There were cheers and there was support.

But, there were riots. There were arrests, and fights. There was blood. Oh, there was blood.

Those were some of the reasons Harvey Milk ran for city supervisor in District 5. He wanted to give gay people the same rights as those who were heterosexual. I agree, actually. Taking away somebody's rights just because they're different is inhumane.

And these two main challengers of his campaign were Anita Bryant and John Briggs actually dared to use Christianity as a basis for their hate against Harvey and his people. How dare they actually tell the public that sacking or firing teachers for being gay would protect their children? What kind of stupid idea is that? Gay people don't teach homosexuality to kids, they TEACH. They teach the same as any other straight teacher, so what's the use in discriminating them? What is the actual point of making them lose thier jobs? To crush their dreams? To discontinue from supporting their own families financially?

Wow, I'm really going off on a limb here. Hehe. This is a touchy subject for me, so I might take a while more to let it all out.

You know what's the worst part of the movie?

When the conservative city supervisor Dan White develops a resentment for Harvey, and eventually murders Harvey and the city mayor, George Moscone.

He put a gun to a man's head and fired it, with the fatal bullet delivered execution style.

After Harvey Milk's assasination, the gay rights ordinance was rejected, and that became the start of the White Night Riots in 1978.

This is a true story, people.

I honestly wonder, what would have happened if Harvey Milk hadn't been shot. Would the United States be different from today? Would the world be different from today?

Nobody really knew.

I really applaud Emile Hirsch as Cleve Jones. He was every bit the young, gay, activist teenager Cleve Jones was in the 70's, and that came out really well amongst the other, possibly twenty-thirtysomethings alongside Harvey Milk's campaign. His work as a rallier and an avid supporter made clear that anybody could be a part of something big. His glasses were really cool, too. Seriously, he had the coolest glasses ever. I wanna get a pair like his, ahah.

And one other person that surprised me was Lucas Grabeel, you know, that guy from High School Musical playing Ryan Evans? Yeah. He was cast as Danny Nicoletta, the photographer boy who worked at Harvey and Scott's camera store, and he was at every single campaign and march and took pictures for them. Danny Nicoletta was, of course, gay as well, and after Harvey's death, Danny became a professional photographer for the LGBT community and his photos were featured in The Times Of Harvey Milk, an Academy Award winning documentary.

There's also a small part in the movie of a gay teenager who cannot walk, and his parents want to send him to an institution to "cure" him of his homosexuality. The teen calls Harvey during one of his marches, and says that he wants to kill himself, and why.

Harvey tells him, "You are not sick. You do not have to die now. Run, go to Los Angeles, just get out of there. You are not a disease. You are not sick."

That was what triggered it. And a year later, that very same teenager called to say that he'd made it to Los Angeles through the help of a friend, and wanted to thank him for making him see that his life was still worth something more.

Harvey Milk set off the chain wave for more and more gay people to come out. He set it so high, nobody might ever come near to what he did for his people.

And the saddest part?

He never made it to 50.

Nat.

LOOK LOOK LOOK LOOK LOOK ISN'T THAT THE CUTEST LITTLE THING EVERR

2009-11-25T01:46:00.001+08:00

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks...

Then I'll follow you into the dark.

Thanks for everything.

What a night for a dance

2009-11-24T14:50:00.002+08:00

So, I've delayed this for long enough.

CF TRIP 2009

We went to FRIM on the very sunny day of 19 November, when we gathered at the school first before heading off on a bus, all 40something of us.

Brought lots of bandages and plasters and meds along. Me --> unofficial paramedic for the day. Haha. The only person who was even remotely hurt at the end of the day was Hsien Zern. He got a cut on his toe. Lol, okay, yeah, I'm continuing now.

W e left the school early, and while we all passed the time in the bus by talking and singing and stuff, we had some currypuffs. Edwin had like, seven. Ahah. So, Jeremy didn't bring his guitar along, but he borrowed Damien's (he has a guitar, who knew) which was in pretty bad... out-of-tuned... shape. So, wind, wind, wind, strum, yay.

We reached FRIM, and the guide's name was Mr. T. Cool dude, and he showed us this fish that lived in the pond by the entrance. It was BIG. Clara was to be the sacrifice. xD

We walked ahead a little; some people had to go to the toilet first, then Shia said, "You know, it's funny that we're starting our journey from the toilet." LOL, whut. And people were rubbing stuff all over their arms to keep bugs away. Joshua smelled like a whole container of really strong Tiger Balm stuff.

Mr. T asked us a few questions before we went in, like, "What would you do if a tiger came" or "What to do when you see a snake?"

Take picture of the snake. XD And just "AAA" the tiger lahhhhh. :P :D

We walked, and climbed, and hiked, and climbed, and fell, and jumped, and slid, and hiked, and sweated.

When we reached the waterfall/stream, it was amazing. Cold, cold water, and almost everyone jumped in to splash around. We got a few good throws at Damien, and Mr Jacob (Head of the Downstream Tribe) led us against the Upstream Tribe (Lol, I know, what?) and we were somewhat victorious! Ahahaha.

We climbed through a drainpipe thing, where the current was really strong. I sat next to Jeremy at the edge, watching someone carry Clara on their shoulders. Then, Jeremy asked me, "Hey, you want to try?"

"Uhmm... sure??"

Then, he actually carry me on his shoulders across one part of the stream, ahah, it was really fun, even when i fell off.

It was a really fun time at FRIM, and after washing up, we went to Rumah Hope. We got assigned a kid each, but mine didn't even talk me, instead went straight at Jun Han, and so did five other Chinese boys. Lol, popular already. xD

Ah, it was better anyways, I got to interact with more kids. We sang carols and played games and had cake and drinks and talked. It was very fun.

When I was at one of the tables with Shia and Hsien Zern, there was this guy who said, "I'm the future prime minister ah, and I got this high-tech car ah, and see my son next to me ah *points at guy next to him who's the same age* and.........................................."

Imagination. Very interesting at times.

When we were about to leave, there was this ADORABLE little girl who just went, "NO." and walked off. She was in denial. Aww.

We packed up and got on the bus, feeling rather tired... okay, REALLY tired, but happy. Ya'know the feeling? You get it after Sports Days and big events like Rally and Camp, and it feels really awesome to just fall asleep once you get home.

Some quotes from random people throughout the day:

"PUSH, yes. But now I think a short break would be kind on me."

"Why are you talking about toy dolphins?"
"We're talking about the destruction and sometimes misplacement of certain soft toys."

"Just keep climbing, just keep climbing, climbing, climbing."

"Woi, you better not fall on me ah."

"You look very flushed."
"Thank you, I'll take that as a compliment."
"That wasn't a compliment."
"I know."

"YEAH."
"YEAH."
"YEAH."
"YEAH."
"Say it like you mean it. YEAH."
"YEAH."
"YE-- watch out, car!"
"What the--"
"Okay, what? YEAH."
"YEAH."

"We people of the Downstream Tribe will be victorious against the Upstream Tribe!"

"So many baptisms today, ah?"

"Come over to the dark side. We have cookies."

"Come here. I want to play with your hair."
"Uhh, okay?"

"Wait... why are there two circles?"
"Yeah, they're pretty much stuck like that for now."

""We're going already."
"NO."

There were a few other things that were supposedly memorable, but my mind has blanked on me again. Oh well.

So, it was indeed, a trip to remember.

Cheers,

Nat.

PS LET'S DO THIS AGAIN NEXT YEAR. TOTALLY STOKED. Hold on, did I just say totally stoked? Never mind that, OKAY LET'S DO THIS AGAIN NEXT YEARRRRR.

100 + 1 = ?

2009-11-22T22:12:00.003+08:00

Wahey!

It's my 101th post, and I didn't even notice.

Ain't that something.

Well, I'm just really bored to blog right now, so I'll do it tomorrow when I have nothing to do at home, alone.

Lala.

Afiq bought a Japanese cooking book to "unbored" himself this holidays. Go him. You people reading this should try something new too. Something out of the ordinary.

Like the Form Fives. I believe this is their first time sitting for SPM. That's new, aye?

Cheers,

Nat.

7-10 split, my new pocket watch, 2012 and more.

2009-11-22T13:15:00.002+08:00

Yay I can finally write about the Sunway Pyramid trip. Next post will be about the CF trip.

It was Kim, Arvind, Jonathan, Kristine, Clovey, Joel, me, Hui Yen, Emily and Mei Shuet. We went for lunch first, and we had pizza at Pizza Hut. Haha, we had coupons, so we didn't have to pay much. :P

We went bowling first, and I totally creamed Arvind. Man, it was a good game. Joel won, with the most points and all, second was Jon and third was me. :] Five per lane, so we split into two lanes. Arvind was last for my lane, so yeah. Hahahahahahah I beat youuuu. :P

Then, we split up into two groups; Hui Yen, Emily, Mei Shuet went one way, the others and I went the other way. We went to the anime shop, with all the videos, and Joel bought a Naruto Forbidden Head Band, Arvind got a World of Warcraft ring, and I got a Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Pocket Watch. It's totally cool. Mwahaha. Love it.

Then, we went next door for archery, but me, Clovey and Jonathan didn't join in. We sat down and observed. It looked cool, but some arrows went off target. Ahah, Joel and Kristine.

Then, we jalan-jalan before going to see the movie. The movie itself deserves a paragraph of its own.

SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT

The movie. Was. AMAZING. I love the theme itself: end of the world, and humanity is lost, bla bla and that stuff. It was very powerful, you know, and the whole thing with the USA president staying back with the other people just to tell them that the world was coming to an end. And the family with the doctor who discovered the shifting of the tectonic plates, when they got swept away by the tsunami, it was just so sad.

Honestly, I cried so much during the movie, and I'm sure that the others cried too. And there was clapping and cheering, in the cinema. It was really, really good.

I totally recommend this movie for anyone who wants to be scared out of their seat.

ADAM LAMBERT ROCKS MAN. Time For Miracles is such a great song, I'm glad they chose it for the movie.

Well, that's it for this post. Next one will be later on in the day, cause I'm still at Sabrina's house. The sleepover was so fun, hehehe. Erin was the only other one who sleptover. We watched Taylor Swift videos and ate ice cream at 12 in the morning and watched half of John Tucker Must Die.

Anyways, that's pretty much it.

Cheers,

Nat.

Lookie here. I changed my blogskin.

:D

Finally, huh? I thought it was getting a bit gloomy and overcrowded, ya know? Now at least it's kinda more cheerful.

About the song, well, it's kinda cheerful in a sense. The guy just HAD to make it so ironic. Sigh. The things he comes up with.

And, my next post will be about the Sunway trip and 2012, the next about the CF trip, and the next just for fun. So, three posts to expect.

No one reads this stuff anyways, so, eh.

:D

Yay smiley face ^^

Ah. That was the sweet sound of the holidays. I'm sooo happy that we got an extra week off on account of the SPM that's starting this week.

To all the "lucky" Form Fives, all the best to you. You'll need it.

Haven't blogged since last week. It's been a long week, though, nothing much has actually happened that would be of any interest to anyone.

Well, more of the things that are to come, that might pique your interest. That, and the fact that I keep using overly fancy words today. Need to get in the mood for writing my magique/post-Victorian-era-style passage under Story 1 of Revelry for Tomas. Sound confuzzling, por favor? It probably is.

Going to watch 2012 on Wednesday. It seems really good, with the whole end-of-humanity thing. Maybe I'll have a good review for it after I see it. Might be my own epiphany waiting to happen.

Thursday is the FRIM/Rumah Hope trip. YEAHHH! Alright, last CF trip thingy of the year. Last chance to make small talk with the seniors before they officially turn Form Five/Four/Three and so on. Too bad though, that the Form Five can't come on accord of SPM. D:

Then, Saturday is Sab's birthday/BBQ/sleepover. *makes girly squeaky thingy noise* Alrighty, then. My first sleepover at a friend's house thingy. I like using the word thingy. It should be made into a real word.

List of words that should be in the dictionary: -

1) LOLworthy = Something worthy of LOL (laughing out loud) that is is superior to many other things.
2) Thingy = To describe something so much like a thing, it is encompassable by any other thing, therefore making it a thingy.
3) Skittle = Something amazingly awesome. Like rainbows. (Taste the rainbow, TASTE IT)
4) Meow = A sound that teenagers make when they want/need attention and/or like to annoy people.

Tada.

I'm getting off track.

Okies, see ya on Thursday then. Bye.

Cheers,

Nat.

Lots of things have been troubling my mind lately. Mainly things that make me feel scared, not just at night, but everywhere I go.

Nowadays, prejudices aren't uncommon. You look one way, and there's a person sneering at another for being a different race, and look the other way to find some manager refusing a worker's promotion for being a woman. It's so horrible, and everytime that happens, my heart drops just a little bit more.

Sometimes, I can get really, really mad at people for shooting down others that have done nothing wrong to them. Just because they're different in one way or another, doesn't give you the authority to punish them for things that are part of them! It's how wars start, people.

There's this good friend of mine, and I'll just call him Capps for reasons of privacy. In his old school, he was constantly verbally abused, glared at, mocked, beaten up and threatened. It nearly killed him to endure all that pain, almost every single day. People would ignore him because of just one, tiny, little reason.

He had no interest in girls at all. Yes, he is gay, and I still think he's a wonderful person who makes people laugh, cares for the simplest things in life, and gives everyone and everything a chance. Well, except onions, he hates those, ahah. But he never shyed away from his problems. He stood up for himself.

So, what does that say? That it gives random haters the chance to make his life miserable? I think NOT. He deserves to live a normal life, not isolated for his sexual orientation, but treated like a HUMAN BEING.

I'm just glad that he's getting better. Ever since he moved to this new school, he found a few good friends through a very special society there, a society that's also close to my own heart in terms of family, trust, and faith. So, thanks, guys. Really. Thanks for helping Capps. I think--no, I know--that without you, he wouldn't be recovering at the rate he's at now. Thank you for accepting him the way I did, no limits and no strings attached. Just pure friendship.

And as for the whole prejudices thing? I'm still supporting rights for the restricted to be released from their boundaries, to step out from the shadow of repressed fools. And when that time comes, I'll be smiling all the way.

Hey. One small step for man, one big step for mankind.

Peace out, mates.

Yo, people. Been surviving the major Internet loss by occupying meself with music. Lots of things to catch up on.

The Form Five Farewell was on Friday, along with the announcing of the 2010 CF committee. Let me make a dramatic 'aww' now.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

It's sad that we--the Form Ones-- never got to know them better. I'm gonna miss them, Jeremy, Reuben, Shaun, Ben, Aaron, Jo Ann... all of 'em. They were great to know this part year. Hope they'll come back to visit next year. But, hey. The year isn't over yet. Opportunities are arising, both for them, and for us. Like, hey, I'm the 2010 Asst. Treasurer, but that isn't such a big deal.

Congrats to Joyce Ong on the new presidency role, and Dylan Tan for vice. May the two of them do their jobs well. I wish them both all the best in the year to come.

Oh, and congrats to Isaac, Eilene, Stephanie, Jonathan, Hsien Zern, Damien, Abigail, Jeremy, Bryan, Shia, Jason, Choy, Karen, Jacky, Tsu Tsen, Yeh Hoong, and anyone else I left out. (sorry, my memory is blown)

NaNoWriMo starts tomorrow!!!!! I'm excited. Not just because I scrapped half of my old plot, but because I'm doing something I'll have to dig out from my June--October memory bank. That'll take some serious reminiscing.

YAY AAR. I really wanna go. Heard that J. Ong S. L. got a pass. Lucky guy.

Bleh. Nothing much to blog about. I'll just close with a quote. Adios.

It's Monday.

So, Deepavali holidays? I've just been out and about at my relatives' house. We had dinner, and then I played Guitar Hero III with my cousins.

I beat the crap out of them with Barracuda and Stricken, wahey.

Been getting my act up on Leaky. It's a blast, with all them Gryffs, Huffies, Claws and Slyths. And the reading groups are excellent. Also, Scrivenshaft's holds an extensive range of writers. I rather enjoy the games, chat and the essays too.

FACEBOOK.

Finally talked to Joel. Lol. He has a blog. Go figure.

I like cheese. Okay? Random enough?

I say, working on fic with self-invented magical creatures, is NOT EASY. I mean, who in the world knows what the eating habits of a Naala is? Sigh.

Okie-dokie, will post more soon. Adios.

I love this picture.

Got a lot of things on my mind.

It's troubling to know things that are way beyond your control. To have no choice over it, only following through with it, just for the sake of another.

I love her. I love all of them. But I really can't choose.

I don't want to choose.

Not anymore.

Remember my last post about the ranting I wanted to do? Yeah, well, that's postponed.

Next week I'll continue that "fume".

For now, I'm just going to post about NaNoWriMo, or as known generally, National Novel Writing Month. Every November, you can sign up to pledge to write a 50, 000 word novel and post it online, and you might win if you can finish 50, 000 words in one month, ending at 11:59:59 gst November 30.

You could enter too, but if you don't think you have enough ink in your pen to finish 50, 000 words, you can join the NaNoWriMo Young Writers Program, where instead of pledging 50, 000, pledge what you can write, like 20, 000 or 15, 000, but there's no changing that after November 1st.

So what are you waiting for? I'm joining (well duh) so why not you? Ain't no fun in doing this alone. I've already pledged 25, 000 words.

Crack open those heads, pull out the plot-bunnies scampering inside that noggin and write those things you've been wanting to write! Aliens, love, rayguns, music, the works!

Here's the link: NaNoWriMoYWP

If your name is Clovey, THEN YOU MUST JOIN. :P

Cheers.

I am... trying. Trying to hold back from spilling out a lot of thoughts onto this blog.

Recently, some events have really infuriated me to the point of no end, and to this fact I concur that after the finals are over, I will indeed settle my dispute.

So, back to normal English, all the best to those who are preparing/taking exams. Cheers.

Speak before the words are frozen

2009-09-24T03:55:00.002+08:00

I came across a neutral Harry Potter fanfic --credit goes to CharliRaverBaby-- in my quest of searching for good slash and epics, and I have to say, this really made me rethink what love is. People have their different perspectives on what love is to them, but the ones I read below are really touching, even if you've never read the HP books.

I think... love is real after all, not just a fairytale of left-behind dreams.

What do you think?

What love is.

"Love is something painful," Severus whispers softly as he holds Lily's favorite book, resting on his chest but the words cutting deeper into his heart. Why was Potter worth more than him. All he did was show interest in darker things. What Potter did was strip him of everything that every gave him some sort of happiness. Yet Potter was still worthy to hold her hand and kiss her rosy lips. "It wasn't supposed to be this way.

"Love is something wonderful," Ted smiles to Andromeda as he pulls her closer to him. Brushing his soft fingers in her soft brown hair as he pulls off the hair clip and sends the warm brown colour spilling down her back. "It's what I feel for you everyday."

"Love is something I can't have," Peter says as he milks the snake for his master. The dark lord watches him with cold loveless eyes yelling hurry up Wormtail every two minutes. Was this worth giving up Sirius, Remus and James for? "I don't even remember what it felt like."

"Love is something unexplainable," Remus grins as he watches Dora dress their son, her hair is a soft tone of dirty blonde today. As it was her son's first day at daycare and she felt that bright pink hair would embarrass would embarrass Teddy. And no matter how much Remus explained to her that he was too young to be embarrassed. Tonks felt that just in case he did, she would go with a natural colour. Tonks always made him laugh."There is a million reasons I can't have this. But love brings it too me anyway."

"Love is something cold," Angelina sobs as she pushes the hair out of Fred's dead face. His cold eyes bearing up at her and seeing through her. She can't believe he will never laugh again. "It will just rot. It will never be warm again."

"Love is something charming," Lily grins as she moves closer to James, he can feel her lips on his ear as she whispers one more thing to him "Or at least it is, when you are involved."

"Love is something lost," Sirius cries out as the dementors swooped down on him again, his face presses against the icy bars as his worst memories come back again. "I'll never have it again."

"Love is something beautiful," Lucius tells Narcissa as he presses his lips to hers as they kiss for the first time in months, his face bear scars of Azkaban. But she can barely see them. He leans down again and grins, "just like you."

"Love is something terrible," Regulus cries as he stares down at the photo of him, Bella and Sirius all together. He knows he has to do this. But he is only 16. He doesn't want to leave just yet. He was always the the cowardly one. "And now neither of them will get too see. Just how brave I can be."

"Love is something unbreakable," Bill grimaces as he looks up at Fleur washing the deep wounds across his newly deformed face, "And that's the way it should be."

"Love is something that never works out," Cho mourns as she watches Harry and Ginny playing with their two young sons in the park. She wonders if it would still be this way if Cedric was alive. Maybe she should have been nicer to Harry. She gave him up for a friend that she never even speaks too. And now her husband always comes home smelling of perfume that isn't hers. "Maybe it was never meant too."

"Love is something crazy," Ron laughs as he watches Hermione try to pull a brush through her hair, and fail badly. He tiptoed over to her quietly and slipped his arm around her waist, she giggles and the brush drops to the floor. Ron grins "It wouldn't be any fun if it wasn't."

"Love is something given and never received," Rodolphus muses bitterly as he stares at Bellatrix's empty side of the bed. She is the bed with him every night. But he has never once woken up next to her. She is always gone on her death eater missions. Either that or she is afraid of any sign of loving from him. "Only a fool could love someone as much as I love her."

"Love is something fantastic," Hannah beams as she runs towards Neville after the battle. She means to hug him but somehow her lips end up on his. And he doesn't seem unhappy about it, "sometimes it's right in front of us and we don't see it."

"Love is something strange," Dean mutters quietly as he watches Luna shop with her head half in a day dream. He had spent so much time with her after the episode at Malfoy manor that he had grown very attached to the weird girl. He always figured they'd end up together. But as Rolf slips his hand into her, Dean realizes that it's gone. He smiles a little, at least she was happy. "It would have been nice."

"Love is something spectacular," Septimus Weasley states joyfully as Cedrella bangs on his door at 4 in the morning declaring that she loved him and was never ever going back to Black manor. He pulls her inside and goes to make her some coffee, but she follows him and when he comes away from the kettle she kisses him with all the passion they were not allowed to have before now. "Nothing else on this Earth makes you feel like love does."

"Love is something stupid," Pansy declares as she watches Draco marry another woman. Was she just his plaything and now he had found his true love? She feels a single tear slip down her face. "I was a fool to take teenage romance so seriously."

"Love is something that always wins," Ginny observes as Harry walks away from the duel with Voldemort victorious. "I always knew it would."

"I, I can't help the way I feel about you..."

2009-09-23T01:04:00.003+08:00

Thought I'd do some video promoting. This first one is called Time Isn't Healing, and the second is If You Could Be Anywhere, both by Tom Felton. And, if he looks familiar, it's because he plays Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies.

Mind you, he's rather charming out of character.

Enjoy. This first one has a rather Frank Turner vibe to it, but the second one is more upbeat. I think people who like bands like Arctic Monkeys and Oasis will find this refreshing.

All worn down, shoulda said nuthin'...

2009-09-22T20:18:00.006+08:00

Aah.

Came back from Kampung Timah at 2. It was a long bus ride, but now...

It was a good Hari Raya. Celebrated my sis's birthday, went out for "tai chan" --lol, idk how to spell that-- meaning "feast". LOL, it was a feast-y thing. We had crab, and prawns, and "yee chee". SF soup. :P

Missed my cousins alot, so it was a warm welcome when me and my mom got there. 99, Bulat, and Soffi, and Bambi! Oh I missed that dog.

"... and at the end was a dog called Bambi..."

Couldn't resist. ANYWAYYYSSS.....

Now let's see. Hmm. Ohya.

BALIK KAMPUNG!!!!!!

Tomorrow, I will be leaving at 6.30pm to Kampung Timah, Tanjung Tualang, Perak, to celebrate Hari Raya and my sis's b-day with my Chinese relatives.

YAAAAYYYYYYY. I've missed my cousins, tons.

I will be studying a lot this week too. Bleh. I don't like exams. :P

YAY KINGS OF LEON CD!!!!!!! Loving Revelry and Be Somebody; my fav tracks so far other than Use Somebody.

"I PWN YOU!!"

"... to confirm you are a rakyat Malaysia."

2009-09-13T19:20:00.003+08:00

Title quote from Mr Jeremy Yee. We were having the treasure hunt on Friday, and we had no ideas for the Bible Knowledge Forever! (9 x 9 x .........) so he went over to Mr Jacob and asked, "I need to see your IC."

"Why?"

"We need to confirm you are a rakyat Malaysia. Or else you might be arrested."

LOL. The whole group started laughing like idiots. THEN we found out that BKF ... was MJ's car number plate. More LOLs. We came in second-at-a-tie with Reuben's group.

EVEN MORE LOL "Rules: No screaming like the 'handsome' (REUBEN).
No breathing.
No running.
and etc. etc. etc.
*copyrighted. thank you for reading. :)"

Next week gonna learn how to play The Beatles' "All My Lovin'" on the guitarra classica. Can't wait to get the sheet music. :D

Miracle Explosion and Youth Explosion was good. I got something to share on Friday. :]

Gotta go for dinner. Bye.

It's September 11, 2009

2009-09-11T01:48:00.008+08:00

Every year since 2001, I've spent this day doing something to remember those lost souls of September 11 in my own way. I know people who visit graves, and some makes special announcements or phone calls or hold memorials.

I know a brave man-- a comic book artist-- who spends this day every year by locking himself in a room and painting the whole day. He was a witness to the collapse of the towers. He saw those people fall from fifty storeys high, heard them scream and heard them cry. And to this day he still cannot get the images out of his head.

I want to take a moment, just to ask you to bow your heads in silence, or just say a small prayer. Those lives did were taken away from loving families, loving parents, loving children... I could never imagine how much pain and sorrow was caused. My grandfather passed away the same month as 9/11, the same year. This has become a special day for me, a day when I just remember those who died, those who survived, those who saw it, those who mourned. And also to remember my grandfather.

This day reminds me to be thankful that I'm still alive. Life is like a candle; it could be snuffed out anytime, and we wouldn't be prepared. We can't predict when we'll die. We won't know when. So we have to live life to the fullest. Live, love, laugh, learn. Don't look back at the past; go forward. Go forward and see that you can still bring good to the people around you, if you learn to live life as a better person.

Have you seen the movie World Trade Center? If not, then go. Go and watch it. You can see first hand, the account of a fireman who was rescued after being stuck under tons of rubble for nearly two days. 2 293 people died that day, after two planes crashed into the World Trade Center, another plane crashed into the Pentagon, and another crashed into a field. There were no survivors from any of the flights.

So I dare you to move. Give a small portion of your day to respect these people. I'm eternally grateful for that.
I dare you to move. Listen.

Eleventh Day Of September

It's Flight Q33 NY, honey
I'm watching the clock tick
As I know you get onboard
The smile on your face won't be comparable
To the fact that you'll be coming home soon
It's only a three hour trip
You'll be back
Amy's waiting up, you know how seven year olds are
She made you a card too
Twenty minutes till you arrive
I'm about to pull on my coat, and Amy's got the keys
But then my instincts take a left turn
I turn on the telly
And as seven seconds drown into my skin
I usher Amy upstairs
And watch in silence
A crash of two planes
Into the sibling towers downtown
It can't be
And I'm begging Amy to stay with the neighbour
Just as I go check
I know it might break her, she's too young
So I speed off downtown
And I catch sight of flames
And a man runs down the sidewalk
Screaming
"My son was in there!"
My heart takes a tumble for the worse
But I keep going
And I see
The tail of the plane on the ground
It says... oh
It's Flight Q33 NY, honey
And the world fades to black.

It's only Sam and Dean, guys

2009-09-11T01:30:00.005+08:00

Trying not to roll my eyes at the huge Twitter war going out over the trending topics #GodIsHere and #luciferiscoming. About an estimated 50 000 are going out at a limb to tweet that the devil will not win and that God will triumph over evil.

I know that's true, but WILL YOU JUST READ THE TOPIC AND SEE IT'S ONLY ABOUT THE SHOW SUPERNATURAL THAT'S AIRING ON CBS AT NINE O CLOCK??? It's the episode where Lucifer appears and Sam and Dean try to stop him from bringing evil to the world.

This is the stuff that I hate. It's people who jump to conclusions over their beliefs and try to turn it into a big, fat, war. I know that standing up for God is good, it's awesome, but please don't turn it Hitler style.

Even a small Twitter war can cause permanent damage.

Catch-up

OKAY OKAY I KNOW I HAVEN'T UPDATED IN SO LONG BECAUSE MY INTERNET IS ROSAK-ING IN ONE CORNER AND I HAS PICTURES. YUMMY PICTURES.

But now I have UPLOADED SAID PICTURES.

Facebook. Now. Shoo.

While I write some other stuff here. Buh-bye.

This Thing Called Global Warming? Yeah, It's Catching On

by Nat.

I used to see a wonderful world,
A beautiful place for me and you,
Plants, animals, people, places,
Cloudy skies and sunny days too.

No more can I see this world,
I think to myself it's not the same,
Pollution, corruption, destruction,
The pain on my skin feels like butane.

I can't smell the fresh morning dew,
Nor the sweet cold smells of the night,
The air is toxic and filled with cyanide,
The terrible stench I can't fight.

What I would sacrifice to have it all back,
The wonders that the earth now lack,
In half my heart has tore,
As I can no longer recognise my home any more.

Oh How I Adore Them

2009-08-12T23:56:00.003+08:00

Just a few of my heroes:

From the left, Bob Bryar, Mikey Way, Gerard Way, Ray Toro, and Frank Iero.

These five guys used to mean the world to me. As a band, their lyrics inspired me to do and learn a lot of things, like Ray inspired me to play the guitar, or Gerard with his song writing, or Mikey and his love for cats... random, yes, but, I have to say that I learnt a lot from these boys. Or, well, not boys. They're in their late twenties and early thirties... but that don't matter!

These guys fought so hard in life, through family problems, personal problems, relationship problems, all obstacles and hardships, but in the end they came out strong. Gerard even has a daughter now. She's almost five months old.

They made my life worthwhile. At least before I came to SU.

Now, my inspiration comes from the ones I see and greet every day, every week. Those are my real heroes. But, all in all? My Chemical Romance, one of the greatest, most inspiring bands ever.

Thanks, guys.

Of Stories And Folders And Band Pics

2009-08-09T14:27:00.002+08:00

Somedays it feels like all my energy to blog has gone into typing on Microsoft Word. I can put three hours into writing a 1000 word fiction story. Recently I don't even have anything to write about. So, new story ideas would be very helpful.

I need a new folder. The clip keeps coming off mine. All my papers are inside.

Oh how I love Googling pictures of band members. Haha. Mikey Way is so adorable in glasses. <3

Sharing Is Caring

2009-08-08T16:16:00.002+08:00

Le Gasp. The Klang Valley Recess Revolution Gathering was this morning. And it was totally awesome.

There were about 200 odd students from all different schools there at Acts Church that morning. Wow. My first time to a church in about eight years. And it was really cool.

Mr Jacob picked me up at nine thirty. Stephanie and Jonathan and Clovey were already in the car. We came late because of the traffic near Jonathan's house *coughcoughnearLickHung*. When we got there, we got Revo notebook and pens! Ain't that something.

And out of the blue, Pastor Andy comes up and asks, "You're Natasha, right? You're going up on stage later to share that testimony you posted on the website." And I was, "Oh, okay." Unexpected.

WE HAD 15 MINUTES RECESS AHAHA. Nasi lemak and coffee. Chan Tong hands me someone's jacket and says it's for 'safety purposes' when we go up on stage later. Eh. OOH, OOH, and I got two more RR badges and RR stickers. STICKERS! Got one badge for Jonathan and one for Stephanie.

And I did go up and share, and the first thing I noticed was, 'Woah, nice microphone'. Haha, then I answered some of Pr. Andy's questions. Chan Tong was right beside me. He wearing this white jacket. Pr. Andy said, "Wahh, Chan Tong got nice jacket eh." People chuckled.

And then, when Pr. Andy asked what Form I was, I held up one finger. He said, "Form One!" and people, like, cheered. Wow. They actually clapped eh. It felt cool. I felt the teensiest bit important, like I was actually making a change. And I guess I am. Leading our Form One RR team has been a valuable experience.

But what struck me was the fact that a standard six girl from Lick Hung had enough courage to go and start RR in her school. And she came today. Wow. She's tiny! But she's still very capable of leading her team of 10. Great work, Mun Cheng.

I guess I'll sign of here. Oh wait.

MY GUITAR EXAMS ARE ON THE 28 OF AUGUST AAAAAAAAAAAAA

An Aon Of Leaders

2009-08-06T21:32:00.002+08:00

Hey, people. Here to blog on this lovely Thursday night. This lovely, lovely, Thursday with so much niceties.

Might I mention another Happy Birthday to both Jeremy Ong and Nikki Claire? Hope you two had a good day. Jeremy, enjoy the card. Nikki, thanks for the cake. You two rock.

Ohya. We, the Form Ones, did Recess Revolution this afternoon. We cleaned the school hall. Oh yes. It was a really coordinated affair, with much gratititude to Daniel Chin (our leader for that week) and Clovey Lye (last week's leader hehe) for working together with the rest of the team.

AN AMAZING 19 PEOPLE+ HELPED!!! OH YEAHHH!!!

And, I am sooooo proud of everyone who sacrificed their only free period of the day just to clean the hall and just bless the school and the students. Guys, thank you all so much.

And the prefects were mighty surprised when they saw us cleaning up for them. The Biro Perhimpunan is supposed to be in charge of cleaning the hall, so he was really grateful. I tell you, I was really surprised myself when I saw some people bringing in their friends to help. Although three others couldn't make it, we still had enough hands to do a good job within the 20 minutes of recess time.

Daniel, you did a good job this week. You handled being the leader really well, and planned everything out smoothly (with me and Cloves's help of coursee) and I'm proud of you. Really, I am.

LET THE RECESS REVOLUTION MOVE FORWARD!

Oh, and I'd like to send a shout out to the Lick Hung students who have started Recess Revolution in a school of oppression. You guys are so brave, and I hope that every other school that isn't involved yet just follows your example of showing up, standing up, and speaking up for a cause. Great job.

CF is tomorrow. I can't wait, actually. I kinda really love to serve on the technical team. Shia, Vi June and Choy are awesome bosses, and Daniel is an awesome team member. Oh, and Joyce said I'm the emcee for tomorrow. You know, the one who goes up on the stage and announces things into a microphone?

*silently explodes with joy and rockets into screen*

Okay. That's it for now. Ciao.

Just keep on inspiring.

Too Much, Too Little, Too Early?

2009-08-02T20:35:00.003+08:00

I realise I've been writing a lot of poetry lately. And I mean, A LOT.

What is it that has brought on this latest poetry drag? I thought my muse had somewhat ran away with my sixth sense of instrument recognisation, which I miss dearly. I used to be able to tell what instruments were playing in any song imaginable, but the sense has departed with my muse since last week. I hope they return soon. Or maybe my muse wil run off and drag ol' sixer back.

Yes, my imagination runs wild at times. Anywayyyys, here's another poem to keep me going.

Still Hoping

by Nat.

It's the marble of the floor
That makes it all the worse
I see your face in the tiles
Frowning all the more
It's the screaming and the begging
That makes you want to stop
Then the rage takes over
By then I'm still not crying
It's the torn pages across the room
That makes me want to sob
You couldn't wait to see me hurt
Not later, but now, and soon
It's the lack of faith you had
That made me open my eyes
There's someone watching over this house
Now it doesn't seem so bad
It's all the ones who made me believe
That I could still be saved
I'm still hoping for a change
On this last Christmas Eve.

Have a good school week guys.

It's Time To Live And Let Go

by Nat

Something worth fighting for
Doesn’t always have to be right
In these cases your side of the truth
May not be all that might.
Carry out a soldier’s duty
Across the navy platoon
When are you coming home?
She’s hoping it’ll be soon.
Faith is strewn through your soul
Never will it come to pass
But one day will it waver?
Nothing usually ever lasts.
But one truth of the fire
You seem to still remember
Oh you dirty little liar
Just tell your story’s proof.
And we shall blast your name
In graffiti on the walls
And twenty-one guns sound off
Twenty, nineteen, eighteen
Seventeen, sixteen, fifteen
Fourteen, thirteen, twelve,
Eleven, ten, nine, eight,
Seven, six, five, four
Three, two, one.
I hear the cavalry coming.
Was it too late?

So I Wonder Why It Is

See You In The Morning

by Nat.

First thing I see
At nine in the morning
It hurts my eyes
To see you smiling
So bright
How is it you manage to fit
A full day's work
Into seven hours with two ten minute breaks
I'd rather lurk
In the corner by the lamp
And watch you stamp
That pice of paper
Sixteen times over
With that quirky pout
And that flat-out
Bespectacled look on your face
I feel amused often
By the space that shall continue
To win you
Over
Oh take a break you
Daily expeditor
And pour yourself a drink
Go wash off the ink
From writing nonstop
About patient complaints and restraints
On little telly sets
That were stolen from the top bunk
With Bunkface
Playing on the stereo in a corner
You look almost like a mourner
You tired thing oh you
That's what happens
When you wake up everyday
To say "Hey Hey"
And drive off to work
With my coffee in your hand
And a little rubber band
Holding up your hair
Out of your face
Well that's what happens
When I see you in the morning
Good night.

It Still Takes My Breath Away

2009-08-02T01:50:00.002+08:00

Wow. I'm feeling kinda sad. Next week I have to return Mr. Jacob's bible. Aww. I think I've grown rather attached to that orange GNB. Reading through Acts wasn't enough, so I went ahead and read probably half of the Old Testament and three quarters of the New Testament.

And I say, wow. The bible is truly a book of miracles. And, going for the 13th National Bible Knowledge Quiz this morning really opened my eyes towards reading the bible. As the CO of Methodist College, Miss Moey, said this morning in her speech, the bible is a roadmap for our lives. And it is the way to acheiving true success in life. Just flipping through the pages, one can see the many wonderous things God did for his people, the Israelites, and just his power over all the land. And the way He tore down the enemy nations who were opposing the Israelites. Even through his prophets, the Lord spoke of many more things to come. And how good is the Lord for sending his only son for us.

I hear Shermaine has finished reading hers? Congratalations to that! =D

Recess Revo is coming along fine. Quite well, actually. I managed another post on the Revo site, so check it out if you have time, oh invisible people who read this.

Cheers.

Nat.

PS. LOL, oh Hsien Sern and Aaron, leaving a sleeping Damien on the canteen table. xD

Impossible, Yet Counterintuitive

2009-07-31T22:58:00.002+08:00

Wow.

This has got to be the sadest things I've read in a while:

“I don’t want anything. We. We don’t want anything.”

“Well how about—“

“Stop it!” Gerard exploded, standing up. Mikey looked as surprised as Brian felt. “Just stop it!”

It was funny, actually, how much easier it was to keep his temper now that Brian planned to be in it for the long haul. “Stop what?” he asked mildly. “Stop being nice to you?”

“Yes!” Gerard snapped.

Brian just barely stopped himself from rolling his eyes. “Gerard,” he said, “that’s pretty unreasonable.”

“I don’t care,” Gerard said furiously. “I don’t want you to be nice to us. I want you to go away.”

“My house,” Brian pointed out.

Gerard stomped his foot. “I don’t care!” he yelled again. “Stop it! Leave me alone!”

“Stop being nice to you?”

“Yes!” Gerard took a deep breath. He was on the verge of tears , Brian realized suddenly, but they were clearly tears of frustration.

Last night, when he was upset, he started telling me things, Brian thought, and deliberately pushed. “Why can’t I be nice to you and Mikey?” he asked, dropping his voice.

“Because,” Gerard said, desperately upset, “the nice ones always go away.” His voice broke and he crossed his arms tightly across his chest.

Brian felt like he’d been punched. “I’m not going anywhere,” he said.

“You can’t promise that,” Gerard whispered. He wiped tears off his cheek with the back of his hand. “Mr. Rossi was nice and he had a heart attack. The Edwards were nice and they decided to adopt someone else and we had to leave. Our parents were nice and they never came home. You can’t promise anything.”

Oh, Jesus. Brian had really hoped to have a few more days before this kind of storm broke. “Gerard,” he said. “I—“

“I don’t want your stuff and I don’t want your house and I don’t want you,” Gerard said, almost sobbing. “You have to stop being so nice to us all the time. It isn’t – it isn’t nice. It’s like teasing or something, and I know you’re gonna call the cops to come and get us and I – I – I—“ he hiccupped for breath “—and I know it
isn’t fair to Mikey, either, but we can’t go back to him and I—“

Brian stepped across the room and grabbed Gerard, drawing him in to a hug. Gerard pushed him away for a second, and then just collapsed, like a puppet with cut strings, sobbing against Brian’s neck. They ended up awkwardly kneeling on the floor, Brian holding Gerard up with an arm around his back and the other rubbing soothingly against Gerard’s neck.

Twice in a day, Brian thought. This had better not be a pattern. “Hey,” he said, looking pastGerard to Mikey, who was sitting up with wide, terrified eyes. “It’s gonna be okay.”

“No it’s not,” Gerard wailed. “Nothing is okay. Nothing is ever, ever okay.”

There wasn’t much Brian could say to that, so he didn’t try. Mikey, however, climbed out of bed and came over to join them. He put his arms around his brother’s neck, and Brian backed off to let him take over. “It’s okay, Gee,” Mikey said softly. “I feel better, and Brian’s the good kind of nice. Okay?”

The weirdest part, Brian decided, was that as overwhelmed and terrified as he felt in the face of a crying kid, he was just as sure as ever that he’d made the right decision. Gerard needed people to be nice to him, and someone to help him take care of Mikey. Mikey needed someone to help him take care of Gerard.

I read that, and my heart just melted away, because two orphaned brothers? Just so sad.

Just A High School Rocker

2009-07-31T22:06:00.002+08:00

How I love Fridays. Every single week, as the days pass, I always look towards Fridays.

You ask why? Well, duh. CF. It's one of the things I love about SMKSU. The afternoon session and the morning session all gathered together to praise and worship God. A lot of schools in Malaysia don't have the opportunity to have a CF in their schools, so I feel really thankful that my school does.

Today we watched a video about this man, Neville Tan, who used to be involved in gang violence in Singapore back when the Japanese were invading the area. He was thrown into prison after confeesing to a murder that he didn't commit, and there, he repented and found God after someone in a different cell gave him seven pages to read from the book of Luke. It was really inspiring to hear that even a man locked up in prison could be saved by God's word. He managed to finish school, and he went to bible college, where he then met his wife and later on became a missionary.

Speaking about the bible, the Bible Knowledge Quiz in Assunta is tomorrow. Oh, I've studied Acts chapter 1-10 more than seven times, and hopefully I can answer the quiz well tomorrow. The people who are going have to get to school at 6:30 tomorrow, for the bus leaves at 6:45 sharp. Hope I can wake up. Acts is full of inspiring things. Like how Saul, who persecuted so many of Jesus's followers, became a man of faith after Jesus appeared to him and took away his sight, and only then did he realise that Jesus of Nazareth could do many miracles. And about Simon Peter having that vision meaning that even Gentiles(non-Jews) could be saved by God as well. It's really a book of wondrous acts.

Congratulations to the choral speakers on getting fourth place in the competition this morning! Even though La Salle PJ won, I'm sure you guys gave your all! Remember, there's always next year.

And, I hear that Jeremy Ong has fallen ill. Hmm. A few friends were wondering where he was during CF. Well, we all wish you a speedy recovery, and we're all praying for you. God bless you. :)

Tell Me Something

2009-07-26T14:14:00.003+08:00

I'm almost off to guitar class now. Just thought I'd do some last minute blogging here and there before I left. You know, everytime I go to Yamaha, I manage to get in three minutes to browse through the aisle of guitars. And always, a certain guitar manages to catch my eye. One day, if I can ever scrape together a few thousand ringgit, that beautiful Epiphone Les Paul Classic will be mine.

Oh yes. I wanted to talk about Recess Revolution in this post. Since I was last week's representative for our little group, I just felt like there was more to say than just "oh we did this and that" and I want to just acknowledge the fact that this, Recess Revo, is something more than students doing stuff like cleaning the canteen, or sweeping the hallways, or carrying bags for teachers.

Recess Revolution is the chance for us Christian students to actually make a change, make an impact in your school or campus or workplace. With just twenty minutes, who knows how much we can get done? Even little things like telling people "God Bless You" can help.

A small group of us Form One's went out during recess to pray for some students. Getting turned down may have been a little disappointing, but we won't give up. We still have next week, and next week, and even next week. It doesn't have to end at recess. It doesn't have to end at school.

Who says you can't help in your home? Who says you can't pray for people you work with? Who says you can't speak about Recess Revo in your church? Who says that you can't still continue to bring revival outside of school?

I may not belong to any church, and I may have been like any other person about six months ago, but I am a changed person because of what Subang Utama's Christian Fellowship has showed me. They showed me that I can still live my life out and still be a student with faith.

I know that God is real, and he is watching over all of us, and I want to do my best to repent for all the bad things that I've done. I know that one day I'll be ready to do all this and more.

And also, I've just realised that I've grown rather fond of the people on CF. They're a wonderful bunch, and Icouldn't have accomplished anything without them. The Form Four's especially, thank you for being so supportive of everything the Form One's decided to do.

To somebody out there:
You know, I'm pretty glad you didn't move to that other school after PMR. I'm really thankful that you stayed with Subang Utama. It is also safe to say that even though you may not see this, I just wanted to say thanks.

Nat.

Subang Rally 2009

2009-07-12T20:25:00.002+08:00

Subang Rally 2009. I only have one word for it: Amazing.
Let me digress.

PUSH: Push Until Something Happens, the theme for this year's Subang Rally. Push For Change. I think that ever since the Rally was put into motion, more and more people have been pushing to bring more people to God, and in the end, it was an event that really knocked me off my feet.

Sunway University College. A place of prestige and higer education, Sunway College is the perfect venue for this year's Rally. When I got there at 7.20, the first thing that caught my eye was the huge PUSH banner hanging from the second floor balcony. The cafeteria/study area for students at the college was fairly huge, and upon entering, tada: SMKSU ushers bunched together at one of the table next to the tech team.

Ushers: Me, Clovey, Kim, Vi June, Abigail C, Abigail J, Kristine, Jo Ann, Esther, Ken Jiu and a few more.
Security: Daniel, Bryan, Jonathan (he got security usher) and some other people.
Crew: Damien, Ben Goh, Brandon Shia, Hsien Zern, Brandon Choy and more people.
Commitee from SU: Joyce and Jeremy Ong.

Amanda Ooi was head usher, so she was our boss. Ken Jiu, Aaron and Vi June called her 'tai kah je', or 'big sister'. That was a bit funny, aha. We (all us ushers and Jonathan) got posted at the main entrance.

So we went there, after breakfast, and welcomed people.

The Subang Utama way. Oh yes.

We were the most enthusiastic bunch. Lame jokes, Mexican waves, Ultraman dances, Superman poses, lots of Zoom, some Chop Chilli and more lame jokes... I think we scared the others. Aha. We stayed there until 9 or 10, then went up for the conference.

Me and Clovey didn't get our shirts at the beginning, cause they ran out, and I couldn't afford one when I signed up, so I bought one during lunch. Could you believe it, the guys all had white and the girls all had pinkish-purple, but I was the only girl with a white shirt. Made me feel lucky.

We missed our school banner while we were ushering, so we didn't get to cheer. Aww. What a shame. All the hyped-up people were downstairs, while the others were upstairs. When we came up, they had started Session 1's Praise & Worship. There were so many people jumping and dancing and singing... it was an awesome time already. Marcus Pee was the MC for that day, and another girl named Michelle.

The hall was, in three words, stupendously humungously big. And there were enought chairs for seven, eight hundred people. And the stage, just, woah. I love the banner hanging up there too, and around the upper part of the hall, banners for the different schools were hung up. There were speakers and microphones and instruments... woohoo. It was awesome just to see all the gear set up, knowing that they would be put to good use later on that day.

When Session 1's P&W was over, we sat at the front part of the back rows, the closed up parts, and our state assemblyman, Hannah Yeoh spoke for a good fifteen minutes. She spoke of the Christians in Subang, and how we should all never lose faith, for our country needs us, and God has purpose for us all. She was the head prefect of our school, and a CF student. That made me feel proud to be part of SMKSU.

Pastor Daniel Singh came up and preached. He said some good stuff, yes, and his story about never giving up was really inspiring. He pushed his way through obstacles standing in his way, and came out strong. It really did fit the theme of PUSH. A good speaker, and during the altar-call, the ushers and catchers helped with the blankets and tissues. First the participants kneeled down on the floor and just prayed as the woship team played, and also as the pastor prayed for them. Some were crying, and those who had finished praying just went tot he back of the crowd.

A lot of people came up for the call, and Pastor Daniel prayed for all of them. He prayed for the commitees from different schools, the Form 5's, the the Form 1's... I was a bit shocked at the number of people who went down after they were prayed for. The first few committee members who were prayed for were from SU: Brandon Shia, Jeremy Ong, Jeremy Yee, Shaun Ang, Brandon Choy and many more, and when the pastor commanded, "Fall, fall!", they fell. Almost all of them fell into a brief unconsciousness, and at times I was really worried whether they were okay.

It was scary and yet somewhat awed me in this sense that God just touched all of them, and they accepted it so easily, so faithfully, and their belief was so strong. And when Pastor Daniel prayed for the Form 1's, I just heard him speak, and heard the music, and at that moment, I wanted to believe.

My faith wavered years ago, and it nearly faded away completely, but that day, that moment, I found it. Or rather, it found me. And when his voice just called out, "Fall," I did. And it was abrupt, but still. I fell. And I know that I have something I can believe in again. It was an experience I won't forget, but there was more to come.

We had lunch shortly after, and I just had a nice, tall, tin of coffee. Yum. The SU ushers found two table by the bookshop selling candy and, well, books, and sat down to eat, chat and have fun. The speaker was on at one of the nearby tables, so music could be heard throughout the cafeteria. Saw Melissa Khoo and her brother there with their SJ gang. Also, Joshua Raj (not related) and Zhu Wei were there. Joel couldn't come, his mother wouldn't let. Oh well. There's always next year. I got my PUSH badge on my shirt, and I bought a Recess Revolution badge from the stall at the back, AND I bought another PUSH badge. So I had three! And I pinned them all on my SU tie. But I borrowed one PUSH badge to Abby J.

During Session 2, Pastor Andy Yeoh came up and spoke. Ah, Pastor Andy, a definite fun person to be around, and a wonderful preacher.

He told us a parable of the rich son who wanted to get his father the best present ever for Father's Day. The son searched the world, high and low, and every car, every garment, every dish was not good enough. At last, he found it. The last of its own kind, a rare and almost extinct bird which spoke, spoke 50 different languages, could dance and all that cool stuff. So, the son sent it to his father, who was at home. A day later, after Father's Day, the son called the father and asked, "Hey, dad, ah, how was Father's Day?"

"Good, same as usual."

"Uhm, did you get my gift? The bird?"

"Oh, the bird! Yes, I did, thank you so much, son."

"What do you think of it?"

"It was delicious."

Ahahaha. That got people going. I think it was a good story, and it showed that we must know our prupose in life before we made plans. Purpose precedes plans. And, if others don't know what our purpose is, we'll just end up like the bird. Eaten, or in our case, just wasted, left aside, left behind.

And then, the worship team started up as the altar-call went, andwith a newfound bravery I found myself heading up towards the front with the others, and knelt down to pray as well. And in that spur of moments, I was crying, and praying, and just whispering forgiveness for all the sins that I'd comitted in the past, and I just wanted to start over. I just want to live as a better person, a better version of myself.

It was emotional, but I knew it was because I was finally ready to accept Christ into my life. It was a big step for me, but I'm ready, thanks to all those people who supported me through the past few months, the ones who just kept pushing me towards God. Thank you.

I stood up after twenty minutes on the ground, and my legs were all frozen. Heh. I needed tissues too. Seriously, these ushers from other school who were sttending to other couldn't see the tears dripping off my face, and I was like, "Hello? Usher people? Tissue please kay thanks." Clovey was standing at the side with Abby J and Jo Ann, and we just stood there, ready to support the other people who were still in prayer.

We got into circles of three soon after to pray for our schools. Me, Kristine and Jeremy Ong made up one circle at the back, and we just held hands and bowed our heads as he started first. He prayed for me and Kristine, and spoke of how proud he was to see the Form 1's so active in the campaigning of PUSH, and that we would grow to be better people, as well as praying for revival in our school, and that more people would be found by God. Kristine and I prayed after that, and I just blurted out everything I had on my mind. It was all fumbled, but I think they got the gist of what I was trying to say.

Then, after the whole Session had finished, it was time for the two hour break. Me and Clovey wandered around aimlessly, until we met up with Vyona, Jackie and Onn Yee for dinner. There were a couple of stalls behind the University, so we had waffles there. Jackie and the two girls had noodles, and he told us some amusing stories about his class.

Me and Clo went back ahead of them, and being the tomboy I was, I had my hair up in my cap, and wearing the white shirt paired with trousers and sneakers, she said I looked like a guy. Aha, I took that as a compliment. With everything on me, I thought I was the only with with the SU tie, but then as we rounded the corner, Jeremy Ong walked past, and lo and behold, a tie was loosely hanging around his neck. He pointed at mine with a grin, and said, "Semangat betul, aha." I grinned back and nodded at his. We were the only ones with ties, woooo. But I wish the others brought ties too.

Then, me and Clo went to the cafeteria, where SU's ushers, the "gang" were playing Mafia. We joined in, and I killed Aaron Jacob. Mwahaha. Vi June healed himself, and Kim was all, "Weyh, he still alive? Who healed him? Who? I kill him already and then still aive pulak." Ahh, Kim.

Going up to the hall, Amanda and that guy, what's his name, our other usher boss briefed us, and we set to, rushing up and down the stairs to greet people, set up chairs and other things for the night concert. I pulled out my flyer and got a free badge that said, "PUSH >>ME!" and I pinned it on my tie. Yay. I had three on one tie now. And when the people came flooding in, I was one of the escorts, but when I stodd at the back, I saw, yet again Jeremy Ong had three badges on his tie as well.

He "aaa"hed me. I "aaa"hed back. Haha. He was carrying that PUSH banner, not the blue one, but a black one on a pole and it said at the bottom, "SUBANG 4 JESUS". Jeremy Yee, our CF president was holding the school's banner, bot our flag, but a banner with "SUBANG UTAMA" written on it.

Skip all the people coming in, and we started with the procession, Jeremy Ong leading the front. and we had a short sing-off. SU won, well duh. Oh yeah, Joyce came up as well, after the worship team finished with "Nothing Is Impossible" and she introduced the committee for Rally.

Pastor Clement Wong spoke, just after the offering, and the SU gang all sat at the back. I was at the side, next to Jo Ann, and she had a cute book with stars on it. She doodled. Yay. Pastor Clement talked about how God would always be there for us, we had no need to even think about sucidal thoughts, or even giving up. Even though he wasn't as energetic as the first two speakers, he still gave a good sermon.

And when he prayed for the people, I fell down again. Wow. A first. Two times in the same day. Actually, this Rally was the first time I'd actually fell, you know, after someone had prayed for me. And right after I got up, more people were lying on the floor next to me. Then, when more people stepped up, Abby J and Stephanie and I just began to pray for Clovey, with Abby leading. It was sudden impulse, and just through Abby's words and God's touch, Clovey actually fell as well. Abby was a bit shocked, she'd never done that before. Wow. That shows that even if just a student, a student can do wonders as well.

Oh yeah, one more thing. Congratulations goes to Clovey's little brother: Yesterday he accepted Christ into his life, and Clovey's father was like, "Oh my, really? Fantastic!" I wish my parents were that supportive as well. I couldn't even tell them that I had been prayed for. My mom is completely against it.

And when everyone had been prayed for, and the night was almost at a close, the worship team wrapped up with an amazing rendition of Yesus, which is one of my favourites, and Nothing Is Impossible. Everyone up at the front were just jumping and singing our hearts out, for those two were the last songs of the night. It was amazing, and I didn't want it to end, not one bit. But it did, and I'm actually happy to say that I can't wait till next year.

So, all in all, you get my point. Subang Rally 2009 was my first interschool Christian Fellowship Rally, and a lifechanging event it was, from the beginning to the end. And many new friends were made, yes, but the whole reason this Rally was held was to bring people to God, bring people closer to Jesus, and just live by faith. I know many have been touched by God at this Rally, so have I. I just wanted to say as well, I believe.

I believe.

Revival Is Coming

2009-07-10T21:34:00.003+08:00

Today's CF was rather cool. We broke out the electric guitars, mwahaha. Too bad the mixer was already at Sunway College for Rally tomorrow. And one of the microphone wires was busted. Awh well. The curtains weren't up, but the slides were. Joyce did the slides today, and Reuben, Jeremy and Shia played. Damien sang.

Mr Jeremy Ong brought his Japanese Ephiphone Les Paul today. I love that thing. Sleek, shiny, perfectly tuned and better sounding than any Gibson; just, wow. One day, I'll get a guitar to match that, and hopefully I can play as well as he does.

Chan Tong was the speaker today, and he said some stuff about the five D's. I can't remember all of them, but Decievement, Disappointment and Distractment. Those are three things we should avoid, all just temptation.

Oh, and RECESS REVOLUTIONNNN!!!!!

We gave out sweets, Mentos and Fruity thingys (I can't remember, but they were PURPLEEE) to the afternoon session teachers. Some of them had a pleasantly surprised look, and the others were actually rather touched by our actions. We gave some to the canteen workers too. Just wish the bookshop lady was there so we coul've given her too.

RALLY IS TOMORROWWWWW!!!!!!

I can't believe it's almost Rally. Just 11 hours away.
I'm so excited.

No words for now. Will be back after rally.
Hang tight.

nish.

Still Campaigning For My Life

2009-07-09T20:52:00.003+08:00

I am going to bare my darkest secrets in this post, for I feel I cannot handle the pressure of keeping everything in anymore, and I just need people to know. I don't care if nobody types in the chatbox, or IMs me, or even looks at my blog. I just want to to be out in the open.

I'm beginning to rediscover my faith after all these years. Thanks to so many people from the wonderful Christian Fellowship at SMKSU, I have something, finally, something to believe in again.

My life has had its ups and downs, many downs which I wish never had happened, including my mother's hatred for my father after discovering his affair with a friend of his, and their almost divorce. Divorce. A word every child, teenager or adult should never know. Sadly, I know it very well, and just two years ago I was torn between the choice of my mother or my father. My sister was only ever happy to go back to her roots, my Chinese family in Perak, but I, I just... it was a choice that didn't entirely belong to me.

These fights over the years led up to just more and more heartbreak, until I couldn't even take it anymore. I cried every night, and it was just too painful to bear. My sister, I was concerned about, but other than that, my life practically had no meaning. Then, they reconciled last year.

This year, it started again. And this year I found out about my dad's unfaithfulness to my mother. Wrath caused me to release my anger on the mirror hanging on the wall , and my hand hurt so bad after. Even after the wounds closed, I could still feel the sting when I found out.

Time after time I messed up, screwed up, strifed and got into trouble. I'm basically an unlucky person.

But, worse, now.

Why does eveything bad happen to me? I don't know, I just don't know anymore.

My uncle has only months to live, after finding out he had an unoperable tumour lodged deep in his brain. Even as I type this, I feel tears building up behind my eyes. I am typing this as my mother and sister are at the grocery store, and my father at my cousins' house, and I must finish before she returns.

Oh no. She's back. I will finish this later. But for now, I will close with a message.

I'm sorry.

Into The Sky
by
Nat

These weren’t always
The things that mattered to us
Just falling
Freefalling
Looking for perfect timing
At the wrong moments
Nothing but steps back
Back to where we started
Tried so hard to run
Tried so hard to walk
Never seemed easy
Just gotta pull through
Deep breaths
Steady hands
The ones who kept me sane
With or without the cold
Waiting, still waiting
For something
To happen
Might there be hope for
The skies to light up
For you
Just you
Once, never again
Take anything in my way
Just hold on everyday
Wake up
Wake down
I’m still waiting.

For Jeremy.

CF Camp's Awesomenessssss PART ONE

2009-06-13T14:23:00.000+08:00

~~~~:Bus Trip:~~~~

Came to school at around 12:30. There were probably four or five people there. So few. So, waited, then more people showed up... bla bla, THE BUS DRIVER WAS LATE! But then we went in, and it was COLD. Air conditioning is so nice. So we sat down, 45 minutes later we got there.

--xxFirst Dayxx--

Nur Lembah Pangsun in Hulu Langat, a rather lovely place. Very 'kampung style', me likes. So, we unloaded the luggage from the bus and stuffed it all in a small room beside the dormitories(yeah, did I mention DORMITORIES? Take that Campzilla) and went downstairs. The whole vicinity was quite cool, and fresh air... ahhh. A change from the hazy Subang air.

The hall was air conditioned too... hmm, I like this place a lot, hehe. We went in, there were some introductions, and we played some icebreakers to lighten up the mood. There were ten groups, ehem: Corazon, Kapoia, Cuore, Sydan, Zureh, Inima, Hart, Herz, Croi and Serce.

I was in Cuore, along with David, Alvin, Jeremy, Clara, Lemina, Wykeith and some other guy who never showed up for camp, Ezra something. My team-mates ARE THE COOLEST, you guys rock. :D BTW, Cuore is Italian for Heart. Actually, all the team names are Heart in different languages. Croi was Irish, and Kapoia was Brazilian(?) and Hart was Dutch. But Cuore was the best. :P

The Pastor's name was Les Lee. Cool name, eh? His two kids were SO FREAKING ADORABLE IENAPGOJAEPOAONSQUISHCAPSLOCK awww, Elicia and Eleon(?), I'm not very sure about the spelling, though. His wife was there too, and she was nice. During the message he used life situations to relate to the Bible verses and stuff, it was really inspiring. Then, the movie. DUN DUN DUNNN. Left Behind was a movie about groups of people all over the world being left behind.

So we went to the dorms, put our bags and stuff there, I got the last bed on the top corner next to the window connecting the next dorm. Went down and dinner, stuff like that la, and then the P&W, was before or after the movie(?) I can't remember. My sleep-logged brain is dizzy from remembering the events of the first day.

So, after getting out of the hall, I bought Maggi Mee and went emo-ing at Emo Corner 2 with Ken Jiu, Abigail, Benjamin and, uhh, Kim came for a while then left. We sat there until 12 oh clock, haha. :D

The bed was nice. I didn't take a bath the first day(eww) because it was too crowded. How crowded? Imagine thirteen cars bumper to bumper on a predestrian bridge. Mmhmm. Okay, maybe too much exaggeration.

^*^*Day Two*^*^

Woke up early enough. It was freezing, so I put on mah trusty combat jacket and slipped out of the dorms, booklet and cap in hand. Ohyea, forgot to mention that they gave these red booklets to us with names and groups and timetables and devotion thingys. Then, went to the hall to meet with my group. CUORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:D

Then was devotion, lalala, we talked about love and stuffies and then went for breakfast. Breakfast comprised of nasi lemak which was quite good in my opinion. We sat in groups, got to kno other a little more, talk a bit. Then, it was over to the hall, and we had P&W, which was totaly awesomely cool. xD

OH WOO JUNGLE TREKKKKKKKK-K-K-KING TODAY. It was , well, TOTALLY EXHAUSTIING but totally WORTH IT, like Jeremy said, "There'll definitely be something rewarding at the end." I was right behind him, and Damien was in front of him, and Elaine was behind me. It was a long and tiring walk/climb/hike up the mountain, and wet too. The rivers were cold and nice, but people kept freaking out about the leeches.

So, at the end, it was rewarding, because there was an amazing waterfall up at the top, where we all splashed around and played for a while. Some of them were sitting right at the base, soaked right to the bone. I wandered around the area, throwing water at people, haha. Clara gave me her bottle and I poured the water on the nearest person: Denzyl. xD

We all climbed back down the mountain, where it took faster to come down than to come up. Clovey was behind me this time, and when we got down to the road, we were joined by Tsu Tsen and Eric. He brought his little water gun, hehe. Then, came the group of Form 5's, and we all walked into the camp area, tired, thirsty, a little hungry and bruised up. Some people got injured, and bla.

I shall continue this in PART TWO of CF Camp's Awesomenessssss ktnxbai.

we are the cuores, ohyeaaaa

Ahhh.

World War One

2009-06-05T17:11:00.002+08:00

So.
I wrote a poem after all these months.
Damned writer's block finally left.
So.
Read it and comment?
This took two whole days, you know.

~

World War I

Oh so wrong
They screamed
When he knelt on the floor
And cried his words.

The stains on the bed
Used to mean nothing
Once they faded
Everything he hated
He had become.

He says it's the envy
That makes him do it
But it never hurts anymore
When he lies to the generals
And the prisoners of war
For he knows it's all fake
He's a fake
Nothing less
Nothing more.

~-

Spent the holocaust
Crawled under a bed
Never took what they said
For long
It stung when we laughed
And healed when we cried
We never learned a damn thing.

I was wrong
The needle was used
When they strapped us to the chair
And whispered
Sweet unoticed words
That were like scrapnel
Blown from the frontlines
When the dawn awoke.

~-

What the war did
To our hearts and souls
Just empty
Empty in that way
When victims of accidents
Wake with retrograde amnesia.

Don't fight fire
Didn't your mama tell you
That matches are for adults
And flames for the dead.

When you called me your sweetheart
It meant nothing
He still stood outside the door
Hanging off your every word
And still?
Still
He never judged you for what
What a liar you became
Even so
Useless I was
Gripping a torn arm
And limping with a broken leg
Through the maze
Of smoke and haze alike
What favourite?
Favourite gun to reload
We're all just bullets.

~-

That chance
To put this at an end
Many things were exchanged
By apparitions floating by the bedside
Immortality
Means nothing
To one who's seen the mortal.

They stole it from my eyes
That lightI saw
When she smiled
Smile
In past tense
Always would be
Hello pretty angels
Can you save me?

~-

Punch me in the gut
Kick me in the back
Like a burn to the skin
Only the words get through
Sorry
If you wanted me to scream
And cry
I wasn't in the mood
Try again tomorrow.

~-

Damn tremors
I would be able to aim better
At those gun wielding teenagers
If not for the shaking
And well
We're still children
Children of sin
Sinners with closed eyes
And broken prayers
As we attempt to save all
All the horror that we've seen.

~-

He shot her
When she said she wouldn't stay
He shot him
When he said he would
Murderer
A common convictor of thieves
What a price to pay
For insanity.

They weren't on the list
They were
Sane enough
To stay on and destroy
The hopeless hearts that made us sick
And shivered through our bones
The list
Lists mean bad things.

~-

Don't make me leave
I want to see
When my little sister wakes up
From the infection around her brain
Or when my brother stands
After his legs became paralysed
By two cracks to his lower spine.

Mom won't know
If I hide
In the basement
You'll come get me when it's over
Won't you?

~-

It was for comfort
The words of kindness
Whispered with caution
There was no one else
A soldier gets lonely after months
Away from his home
And love
Empty fucks mean nothing
When they're from your comrades
Lying bedraggled in a pile of blankets
Huddling for warmth
At an old prison base.

~-

A day will come
When the unexplained will become
Unforgivable
But we'll still wait
Wait for the chimes
Of the grenades.

They steal the boys away to the dorms
And smother the girls in alleys
No one sees
No one cares
It's always been
It'll never change.

~-

Forever
I ran
They left me behind
You promised
You'd take me with you
Those empty beds made me see
Used like a doll
And thrown aside like one
When you forget meI hope
Anything will make you remember again
Guilt
Is an open wound
That nobody discovered how to close.

Wicked grins
Oh chains
Tombs are so fun
When you're banging on the coffin lid
Choking on memories.

~-

How many hearts you broke
When you left
How many souls you crushed
When you returned
How many times you fell
When they tripped you
You deserve every punishment
Thrown at you
Free?You thought so
Hey
Wake up
The military is for dogs
You?
You were always a cat person.

~-

My my
He's slowing us down
Right up the slopes
And blood-stained rivers
So Colonel Killjoy
What now?
Leave a man behind
Or carry on
Not a Major's job to decide
Is it?

~-

This could be the end of everything
Oh little bottles
How you drown my sorrows so easily
Halfway through the absinthe
And three quarters down the whiskey
Shot by shot
I keep forgetting
Was it because
Doing it for the people wasn't enough?

~-

Wake at midnight
Trembling glances
They struck again
Oh petty nightmares
In the midst of murders
They bring heart attacks and
Fires within the spirit
Of heavy hearts
And nonchalant guilt
Of knowing
What it means
To stay awake.

~-

Put down your bags
The reports are true
You're going home
How lucky are you
To see their faces
Once more again
Just try to remember
Remember this friend
The one who had your back
All through the fight
Who never said die
Never said no
Always stood by
Never let you go
Walk out of that door
With your head up high
Tell everyone he knew
He didn't deserve to die
Papers mean nothing
Ranks are fake
But in his eyes
That's what would take
To bring him down
May April June
July August September
November December January
February March.

March soldier
To the battlefield
And back
Home.

~-

Ah, wretched love
Your chains creak with knowing
And freedom of speech
Moreso absolution
Of a revolution appears
To give the sirens a new beginning
Of hatred towards redemption
And cheers to salvation
Joy oh joy
It rang in the streets
Genuine smiles
Undeniable laughter
How sweet the sound of merry-making
And the ending of
The things that imprisoned
Lives
And seekers for a better abstract
Heads for the dreams
And hearts for the sorrows
And all shall hear
The cries of children
Just
Once in a lifetime
Lived.

~-

End.

Nice day today

2009-05-09T19:28:00.002+08:00

Today was the day of that Hannah Montana thingy.
We had Shila come to our school today.
Yeah, she's actually pretty good at singing.
I came to school at 8:20 in the AM.
And my mom like, "Got coffee here ahnot?"
I was T.T no tak ada la mami
And she and my sister go wandering around the school.
And I CAME EARLIER THAN KIM MWAWHAHAHAHA.
Then we all go for Usher briefing. Clara, I tell you, DAMN ANNOYING.
She simply came for the meeting and didn't even help also. Bleh.
Go shoot yourself. xD +-"--> x.x

So, CF was in charge of ushering.
And Mr Jacob was = O.O hannah montana? o-okay. xD
So, we were all helping.
And, I was at the main entrance. Me, Jonathan, Kim, Clovey, Lemina and Emily.
And Kim was attacking everyone who passed by, like "WELCOME TO SUUU!!!!!111!!!"
"I'M A GUMMI BEAR." = Kim. xD
"SOULJA UP IN THIS HO" = Me. xD
"I take picture of people." = Clovey. xD
"..." = Lemina + Emily. xD
"Uhm... Uhm... I very awkward la say welcome." = Jonathan. xD
So, Jonathan(bodyguard ftr) brought his MP3 so I listen to what he got on the MP3.
... Got Pussycat Dolls wtf la. xD

So, 10:10 (not 11:11, xD) we went back to the hall.
SOOO PURPLE YOU KNOW? My sister matching. She wore purple coloured shirt. Ahaha.
And we all sat down and I saw Thanesh there. And Pravin was there also.
The shorty from last year, 6S. xD
So, Thanesh was like, "OMG DUDEEE U IS HEREEE."
And I also, "OMG WHAT U DOINNS HEREEE."
And Pravin like, "Yeah, my sister wanted to come la."
But then eh Thanesh cannot stay for the performance cause of his project with Misykat and Wafa and Varshini.

Then my mom was there with my sister. So, they were watching the show. Ahaha.
They gave these weird purple packets with pink bangles and Hannah Montana stuff inside.
(i saw jeremy wearing the bangle before shila actually went on, ehe.)
Then, sing sing, act act, lalala.
Then, Joey also sang. Wow.
And then Damien was dancing... LOL, HE GOT A SILVER HANDBAG. HAHA.
And the teacher DAMN CHUN WEYH can sing also won handbag and En. Mokhtar like =D
Then Elyna DANCING LIKE MAD and my mom ask "Who's the crazy girl ah? She on medicine or something?"
Me = T.T xD =O XDDDDD

So, it finished after Joey and Shila sang together.
Then Chester was singing.

I finally found it. The thing I've been looking for. After two years, I finally found it.

Ah, nice to relieve old memories again. I believe some call it nostalgia.

I call it odd that it suddenly turns up after so long.

The black-and-purple braided chain from Justin.

Long story. Don't ask.

Wore it to school today. I still remember the day he made it. It was a nice day. Yes. All six-seven?- of us, sqiushed together on the mat, tying strings.

Haha, it was a really good day. I just wish we all kept in touch after that. Of course, I did lose the book from May, so well. :[

I still remember Justin well. Hmm. Wonder if he still remembers. I don't think so. His condition pretty much made it hard for him to.

He should be about fifteen or sixteen by now. Huh.

This discovery has made me want to blog now. Okay then. I might continue this story tomorrow.

Time flies when you're reliving the past.

My Uncreativeness Has Forced A Writing Contest Onto Myself

2009-04-25T21:32:00.003+08:00

Yes, it's that time of year again.
I'm entering a bloody writing competition.

THE DEADLINE IS 30 APRILLLLL!!!!!111!!!!11111oneoneone!!!!!11111!!

OMGOMGOMGOMG NOW WHAT?

I've only gotten a few lines in.

The title is, "If I Were An Angel".

Starts like this:

He had green eyes.

That was all Avery remembered. It was as if he'd just woken up from a dream, a dream so vivid and real. It was like he'd forgotten what he had dreamed about. It was hanging from the tips of his fingers, but he just couldn't hold onto it.

Bright, emerald-green eyes, cold and sharp.

It was a dismal feeling, seeing that something was missing from Avery's life. Something of great importance, but it slipped his mind.

Those eyes betrayed his soul, though.

Avery knew he'd remember eventually. He just had to wait and see. He could never completely forget.

A soul that belonged to an angel's.

His angel.

So, feedback?
I'd really love some comment on this, some help as well.
Anything?

Please and Thank You.

Top Fifteen Favourite Songs Of The Month

2009-03-31T23:20:00.005+08:00

Okay, so, I said twenty-five, but there weren't many good songs this month, so here you go, fifteen favourite songs of the month!
Yay. Lol.
So, this time, all the songs have been borrowed from MySpace.
Thanks.

One
Dear Maria, Count Me In - All Time Low
All Time Low? More like All Time Awesome. This is an amazing song, and I fell in love with the vocals from the vey beginning, especially during the bridge; that part is amazing.

Two
Risky Business - The Cab
This is a very enlightening song, and the vocals, and the whole arrangement is awesome. I love it.

Three
No You Girls - Franz Ferdinand
I love this song too much, and to leave it out of the list would be cruel and unusual. So, here ya go. Franz Ferdinand, everyone.

Four
Paper Planes - MIA
One of the songs from the soundtrack for Slumdog Millionaire, this song touches on the thriving feel of the Mumbai life. You would know what I'm talking about if you've seen the movie, but whatever. Enjoy.

Five
Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds - The Beatles
I love this song, oh my god, I love it to pieces. Even though it's probably thirty something yeas old, it's still amazing.

Six
Numb - Linkin Park
Okay, so even though Linkin Park isn't much of my entrende, this is still a good song. Very raw, emotional, and the video is execellent. Go search it on YouTube.

Seven
The (Shipped) Gold Standard - Fall Out Boy
Okay, so this. The rarely-found awesomeness of a song that promotes saving the Eath, and warns about the GreenHouse Effect. This is the type of song that I'd to see more often.

Eight
If You Can Afford Me - Katy Perry
I really like this song. It's catchy, sarcastic, yet enjoyable for all the players out there who know that some girls are a little less cheaper than others. Aha.

Nine
Mardy Bum - Arctic Monkeys
It's British and awesome. That's all I have to say.

Ten
Mercy - OneRepublic
A heart-breaking song full of emotion and deep thoughts, this song seriosuly made me cry the second time I listened to it properly.

Eleven
He's Half In Love With Elizabeth - The Mystery Jets
Another British song, and this one is pure win. I mean, a song about a guy who loves his girlfriend AND Queen Elizabeth? TMJ, you guys have done it again.

Twelve
Farewell To The Fairground - White Lies
I love the ending of this song; it's haunting and catchy. And, the words are so true. There's no place like home.

Thirteen
Starlight - Muse
Well, well, seems that the Brtis are dominating the charts tonight. These guys are awesome.

Fourteen
1, 2, 3, 4 - Plain White T's
It's an adorable song, and the video is so sweet. I love the little captions at the bottom. So cute.

Fifteen
The Fear - Lily Allen
This is, honestly, a really nice song. The song is sung really whisper, and it suits the curret situation of the media propaganda.

So, that's it.
Enjoy, folks.

I tried to find the videos with the best quality even though I could't find the official videos for No. 1, 2, 4 and 5.
And, yes, No 1, and 2 have no official videos.
Enjoy!

Numero Uno
For A Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic - Paramore
It's a really inspirational song, and really. Just awesome. I like the lyrics; the beat and riffs are catchy, all in all a great song. Top song of the week.

Numero Dos
The World Is Ugly, Dont' You Know? - My Chemical Romance
Just... perfect. Amazingly perfect. I cannot describe it. Beautiful lyrics, and the way he sins it... oh god, perfect.

Numero Tres
No You Girls - Franz Ferdinand
It's so up-beat and catchy, honest to god, I fell in love with the song just yesterday night. I was watching them on MTV World Stage, and it was their first song of the night.

Numero Quatro
La Camisa Negra - Juanes
During the movie Goal II, there was a particular scene that played this song, and I hadn't heard it in over a year, so it brought back really fond memories of my love for Spanish songs.

Numero Sinco
When Did Your Heart Go Missing - Rooney
Oh my goodness, I adore this song like no other, with the fast yet catchy old-school-up-tempo-riffed-Beach-Boys influences and just, the words are too awesome.

EARTH HOUR YEAHH

2009-03-27T21:55:00.003+08:00

IF YOU ALL LOVE THE EARTH AS MUCH AS I DO

~and you know I do~

THEN YA'LL BETTER BE SUPPORTIN'

EARTH HOURRRRR

~takes megaphone and starts speech/rant/Gerard Way impersonation~

You know it's for a good cause, so everyone! Turn off your lights for one hour on the 28 of March, 2009 and join the list of millions who are willing to help save the planet!

I am going to turn off my lights and then crawl into a hole. Earth Hour is a gesture to show that we are not greedy, needy, selfish people. That we can sacrifice one hour of our electricity to make a bold statement about our lives and the planet we live on. Some conservative folks wouldn't even agree to this just for plain reasons like "No, it waon't do any good" or "That's just boring". Well, NO!

I SAY, FUCK YOU ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO DON'T CARE FOR THE WORLD, AND RATHER JUST CARE FOR YOURSELVES.

I SAY, THOSE WHO CAN AFFORD TO SHOULD DO SO, BECAUSE FOR THE REASON THAT IT BENEFITS ALL OF US, NOT JUST NATURE.

AND I SAY, THOSE WHO REALLY CANNOT DO THIS FOR PERSONAL REASONS, AT LEAST SUPPORT THE CAUSE.

Come on people, wake up and smell the roses! We have to do something for this world; you know it ain't gonna last forever! So, get off your sofa and turn off the telly-- LET'S SUPPORT EARTH HOUR CAUSE YOU KNOW IT'S GOING TO IMPACT US ALL ~IN A GOOD WAY

So, please, for once, help the planet that's given ya'll so much, and just come together. Let it be. You can.

We can.

So, thank you anyone who reads this, for all the support for the campaign, and have a wonderful Earth Hour, everybody. Remember, do this from the bottom of your heart, and not just for show. Be true.

TTFN, and stay safe, people.

PS I love you.

I'm Still LOL-ing

2009-03-25T00:52:00.004+08:00

I have not blogged in a while, people.

Very sorry for lack of useless, boring, uninsightful updates.
I know nobody reads this junk anyway, so hey presto!
Magically long post tonight!

Here we goooooo....

Okay, first off, there was an incident in school, where during the holidays, some people/someone sprayed graffiti all over parst of the school hall. Personally, I kinda liked the long squiggle across the wall; call me mad as a hatter, but it was very artsy. Even though I didn't really appreciate the f words and middle finger on the doors. The teacher got a few boys to clean off some of the writings using thinner. There are still smudges everywhere.

"Minggu Kerjaya" started this week, also known as ~in english~ Ambition Week. I think. So, the morning session put on a fashion show where they dressed up in outfits that matched the jobs; for example: a doctor, an archeologist, a painter and my personal favourite, the band of rockstars. It was awesome. And, the secretary who walked in with the accountant was really ngggghhhhhh. Short skirt, high heels, tight blouse... all the guys ~and girl, xD~ were staring. The RELA team was awesome. Really, I think I night join RELA next year or something.

And then, I didn't go for the LEO IR Day auditions. I totally blanked out and said, "To hell with it. I can't sing, so I ain't going!" and that was that. Besides, I'm pretty sure that no one would like The Plain White T's "Hey There Delilah" anyways. :[

Now, if I may continue my rant...

I move on to Twitter. It is doing very good for me, and also for a certain Brendon whom Maddie hopes will answer her reply. By the way, Maddie is my friend from London and she is the absolute best writer I have ever met, and so is Colin. They're both amazing people. <3

So, today was the frst time in three weeks, three freaking weeks, that I managed to say hi to my best friend. The conversation only lasted like thirty seconds because said friend was busy, and had to leave. Sigh. I miss my best firned. Even though we're in the same school, we barely see each other anymore. I miss standard four. We used to hang out all the time, even when people thought it was weird. Now, I'm resorted to stalking Erfan and Faiz. :l

Okay, onto the freaky stuff.
If you do not tolerate anything over NC-17, I beg you to leave the page now.
So, begins.

I just read an amazing 3,345 word long fanfic about femmeslash. Yep. You guessed it. Femmeslash!Swap!bandom fics are now my OTP. I have no idea how that happened. Seriously, the mere notion as a bandom boy as a girl, doing over PG-13 things to another girl, is disturbingly ~~hot~~ interesting.

Afiq, if you're reading this, YES, IT'S PROBABLY CAUSE I'M BI. ~~NOT MY FAULT~~ SO WHAT. :PPP

So, move over, Rydon, and make way for ALL GIRL ~~ORGY~~ THREESOMMMME. YEAAAAAAAAAH.

*blinks*

I'm so weird and you know it.

LYYYYYNYYYYRRDDDDD SSSKKKKYYYYNNNNYYYYRRDDDDD

That's all for now.

You Know It Makes Me Wanna...

2009-03-18T00:16:00.003+08:00

SHOUT!
Yeah, that's from "Shout!" covered by Panic At The Disco.
It's real good, ya'll should give it a listen right away, bwahaha.

So, anyone here's heard of Open Happiness, the new Coca Cola Happiness Factory song?
No, of course not, some of you guys don't know what the Happiness Factory is.

Fear not. I am here to enlighten. *wiggles eyebrows*

The Happiness Factory is a fun, newly themed idea fro the creators of Coca Cola, and the music video features Cee-Lo Green of Gnarls Barkley, Brendon Urie of Panic At The Disco, Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy, Janelle Monae and Travis McCoy of Gym Class Heroes. All of them collaborate in the single "Open Happiness" which can be found at their MySpace.

So, try out the links. If they don't work, let me know.
And, enjoy the song!

Oh hello there. Bonjour. Long time no see, I suppose.

How are you people out there? Doing fine, I hope. Savvy? I've been watching Pirates Of The Carribean: At World's End. Fantastic movie, I must say. The special effects were real good, and it's a jolly good show to watch if you need a laugh as well. The actors are superb in this one, and I dare say, I've never seen a better movie about pirates in my life. OF course, my life is only so short, but who gives a damn anyway? And I do say, Keira Knightley does some fine acting in the movie. And I have to admit... she's kinda hot. :D

And so in about a week or so, school starts for us over here. Yup. Seventh Grade, a whole new world, a whole new school. Damnit. I'm sure to be the nobody I was back in my old school. In my old school, I got along better with guys instead of gals. Of course, I like both, so who cares? Right? Sigh...

So, I'm wondering about a new fanfic. I'm really just too lazy to write out a plot so it's gonna be a chaptered fic... short, but chaptered nonetheless. I may have mentioned it in the previous post, a crossover of Panic At The Disco, France, The Da Vinci Code and some other confusing stuff involving the FBR family on a weird sidetrip to Paris where Panic finds out some creepy stuff about Ryan's past life. And Brendon's. And Spencer's. And of course Jon's too. It'll be pretty odd stuff, but I bet worth reading, hehe.

And, oh wow. How the HELL did Pete Wentz come up with Bronx Mowgli Wentz? Hopefuly the kid changes his name, or he'd just go by... wait a sec, WTF I just noticed that his initials spell out B.M.W? Isn't that... Pete's favourite car? Erm, smooth move man, naming your kid after a neighbourhood, a cartoon character, and a fucking car for heaven's sake. Hopefully Gerard Way's kid will have an at least, not so weird but not so normal name, like Avery Way or Skyler Way or something, cause another Bronx will kill all the MCR & MSI fans out there. Like, =/

Okay, so I'm done with my pointless rambling tonight... or is it morning if it's 1:42? I have no idea, but goodnight anyways. Au revoir.

xo Frerard lives on :D

PS Hell yes! xD
