One Step Closer

today, it has been exactly 20 years and 1 week of me breathing. (or in simpler words; my birthday was last week). ;)

i would have to apologize to my besties for being so hard to be surprised. but guys, that doesnt mean i dont appreciate all the whisperings behind my back to

plan whether to go to McD or Pizza, and the sudden need to go to town on a weekday to buy my present.

from the bottom of my heart, thank you for making these two years of celebrating my day with you guys special. :)

i cant believe im already 20. i know i’ve said this every year. and perhaps until the day that i die i’ll keep saying this. “i cant believe im already ___”

but this year, i just can believe im finally leaving the teen behind. it was hard for me to believe that i was 11. i could still remember the words that i

wrote in my diary; “i’m finally not a kid anymore”. and it made me smile. but now, im actually scared to admit that, “im not a teen anymore”

im an adult. and when you say adult, we very well know that it means huger responsibilties. and people who know me would also know that i suck when it comes

to holding responsibilties. guess its time to grow up, huh?

year after year goes by. year after year, new people come and go in my life. but i have realized year after year, new people join the celebration of me

entering this world. so i have never forgotten to count my blessings to the All Mighty for surrounding me with these people who are just full of love and

kindness.

thanks Thariq for being the first to wish. before 12am lagi. mesti sebab jam dia laju. hehe.

to Diana for making that announcement in class and Wanisab for forcing the whole class to sing “Happy Birthday” and “Allah Selamatkan Kamu”. lucky that im

not a blusher because if i did, my face would be as pink as… air bandung? :p

thanks also to Diana, Syiqin, Firdaous, Syamil, Jiji and Hasrul for having that makan-makan.

to akak-akak rumah for the hugs and kisses.

to So for coming that night with my presents all the way from India.

to Mus for the message that made me cry.

to azwan. :)

and to everyone that remembered, wished and prayed. especially my family.

May Allah bless you all.

p/s: i wish birthdays could be longer. one day is not enough. :(

We got 4th Place! :p

we finally had our competition yesterday. after almost two weeks of kirip-kanan-kirip. Pertandingan Kawad (PERKAD) is finally over.

i’ll surely miss the nights of sweating like crazy , the nights of getting to know new friends that im pretty sure i would never say “Hi” if they werent with me in the skuad, the nights of practising new moves and have that satisfying feeling when the whole skuad manages to do every step as sharp as ever and most important when we get to do it TOGETHER at the same time. the joy the sound of the single thump brings. i cant really explain why i like marching. it started in school. i was a kadet polis. i joined because i liked the uniform. and when i was in Form 2, i became the only Form 2 chosen to join the marching competition for Kadet Polis during sport’s day. and by Form 4, i became a Kadet Korporal. by Form 5, i became the skuad Komander for Kadet Polis. i know.. i know.. wonder how my voice could be qualified to be a komander? ask my little bro how loud my screamings can be. :p

marching is all about unity. how a group of people can do simple movements at the same time. tall or not so tall. small or not so small. we have to do everything together at the same time.  it sounds so easy and simple doesnt it? i mean we’re just practically walking with rhythm. but believe me, its not so easy.

so i like being in this group of people and being screamed at. i cant really explain why. despite the shining bright sun and my ickily oily skin due to the very thick sunblock, i like it. and having the experience of being both komander and skuad member, i very much prefer being the one accepting orders. guess i was never borned a leader.

we did pretty good, didnt we perkad? im proud that we improved alot throughout our practices. yes, The Day didnt go so well. but we tried. was it our best? no. we did waaaay better during our practices. but there must be something behind our messiness on that day. maybe we would be too famous if we won that we wouldnt be able to handle it. kan? HAHA. so yeaa, lets syukur that it happened the way it did. :)

thanks to my skuad members who worked harder or atleast as hard as me, to my line; syafiq and amir for giving me support and reminders when i was dead nervous, to herne for blaming me for the phewwitings to random guys on the road and to our komanders for giving us hope. :p

here are some photos. tengok je yee. jangan gelak.

p.s: i dont know how to make my photos have captions. sapa sudi ajar?

p.s.s: i know thats not how you spell “komander” and “skuad” in english. hehe. soryyy.

1) + 2) during our rehersal in kesatria attire. the only time you can catch me wearing white tudung. :D

3) dont miss us, snowy! thanks tau herne.

4) our uniform for PERKAD. all black. i like. yang paling comel, guys pun kena pakai handsocks. hehe.

5) our beautiful entrance.

6) i know.. i know.. dalam baris takleh senyum. but i couldnt help it.  :p

7) my line; crazy amir and syafiq.

8 ) i even met my loooong time no see friend, paklah! he was representating the brass band skuad.

We love modules, dont we?

just felt like uploading these pics. they were taken during Module 3.

There’s a UiTM Jor Today

“kak mal, weekend ni kita stay rumah jela kan? takde duitlaaa. nak makan pun takde duit dah” (while reading The Star).

“tulaaa, duit yang umi bagi cukup untuk bayar sewa rumah jee. every weekend nak kuar. minggu ni duk umah je. japgi saya nak masak sardin la”

“uuuuu, sedapnyaa. (reading the PC Fair advertisement). eh kak mal, tengah PC Fair la sekarang. sampai esok jelaa. mesti bangah pegi. nak message dia laa”

30mins later. i was on the bus to KL. there goes my plan to be grounded for the weekend. :p

i bought a digital camera. the cheapest of its range. but im quite satisfied with it.

i was supposed to arrive home before 8. because there was marching practice. oh yeaa, i joined perkad and we have practice every night. even on saturdays. im actually excited to go to practice every single night. no matter how tiring it gets. hopefully being chosen to represent my fac for the marching competition this 10th August. be there to support us, ok? :) ok, back to the story. there were just sooo many people that our movement was slightly delayed. so i couldnt make it that night. sedih actually. i love perkad. :)

today’s a sunday. finished Modul 3  with Ms Afni at 2.15pm just now. was ok, i guess. was terribly sleepy actually. tapi bila dah balik rumah tak rasa nak tido plak. im hungry. but im broke. so i ate megi. still hungry. ate oat. and im still hungry. :(

rayner’s here right now. yup, in our house. he’s trying to secure our wireless connection. no more intruders after this! HAHA! thanks rayner! you’re such a cool computer geek! :p
