F(whichever way you want it) Friday

Fridays have never been this mundane... a new level of boredom has been achieved... kudos...

Last day of lectures for this semester, well spent (HAHA).

Wrapping up our research paper after Friday prayers... Thanks Haizeer, Paqa, Daus... and my deepest apologies for any sort of 'kekurangan' throughout our working days... and I apologize too for any unmet expectations here and there... I'm not the most formal guy in the world...

Went for a jog... a proper one, mind you (no offence, ;-) ) found out that in the same amount of time that you can spend lying in bed, listening to 5 songs, you can jog a full lap around the UTP ring road... figures...

Best jogging track ever, the UTP ring road... you get the smell of the forest as you jog along... simple pleasures of campus life :)

But still, something's missing... not sure how to put it... that oh so elusive human touch... I feel like a robot, pounding the tarmac, earphone-in-right-ear, for 30+ minutes... no jogging buddy... :)

Most people are going back home for the study week... but I'm stuck here, stumped with boredom with my naturally compatible roommate, Ace... It's not a bad thing, mind you... I'll spend my study week studying, thanks very much... ;-) Although I must admit, that though my hands and feet are in campus... my heart lies... with someone else... well not literally, of course... poetically speaking... -_-
Glad you're home, homesick-cured :)

I shall retreat to the comfort of studying, for knowledge is power, and a form of love towards God and humanity (Ahmad, 2011).

Because campus life is as grand as it gets... (cue sarcasm)

I'll Stand By You (an apology)

[Originally performed by The Pretenders]
~
Oh why you look so sad
The tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don’t be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
Cause I’ve seen the dark side too

When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you

So if you're mad get mad
Don’t hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide
I get angry too
Well I’m a lot like you

When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
Cause even if you're wrong

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Take me in into your darkest hour
And I’ll never desert you
I’ll stand by you

And when, when the night falls on you, baby
You feeling all alone
You won't be on your own

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Take me in into your darkest hour
And I’ll never desert you
I’ll stand by you

44 and College-Bound



I wished you last night and I'll wish you again,
Happy birthday, mak.. !!!

Must be great being 44... I wouldn't know... :)

Because age is just a number (credits Ace)... :)

Beetle of the Bunch







The third generation People's Car recently made its debut last week, carrying with it the tag-line 'The 21st Century Beetle'. On first impressions, the 2012 Beetle seems only like slight exterior cosmetic updates, most notably for the bumpers, lights and roofline.


But that's before you delve deeper into the offering;

The car that started out originally as Heir Hitler's brainchild of an affordable car for the masses has been completely redesigned inside and out. It's grown more macho now, if macho is the right word to describe a beetle in the first place... It's got less curves and more straight lines, a more straightened-up roof compared to the last Beetle's totally curved-out dome-of-a-roof, a very wide, gaping, aggressive bumper, and even a cool set of wheels with red brake calipers thrown in for added effect. And the interior is no feminine affair, either. I'd go for a car based on the looks and feel of it's steering wheel alone, and the 2012 Beetle has one of the nicest-looking steering wheels around... What a shift from the previous, strictly female-only Beetle... :)

Don't try to lie to yourself; the new Volkswagen Beetle is a looker; completely likable, and refreshingly unique. Emotion sells, and the Beetle has got that elusive emotional factor in play that only it can pull off. No other car can compare to it's uniqueness. If you know that a car looks good and try your best to convince yourself why it looks good, but can't point out exactly why, then you know that car is special. The Beetle will forever remain the industry icon, and yet we can't really explain why...

You know you want one... so don't lie to yourself; God, I am such a sucker for small cars...

I think a black Beetle would look nice, parked in the garage beside a white Fiesta... :)

Because you can't put a price on history;

Strings of Thought

"Why do people often feel that they are not good enough for some apparent reason, when in fact they are sincerely perfect in their very own special way?"

Because success is meaningless without happiness;

Strings of Thought

"Sometimes it's good to lie to yourself; thinking that you can achieve anything you set your mind to, when in reality, all the odds are against you..."

Because sometimes, all you have is hope...

White Fiesta

No wonder you like it so much... It won the 2010 New Straits Times/Maybank Compact Car of the Year Award!! :)

Plus it has a very cool center console with all the buttons you could ever need, its design and layout inspired by hand-phone ergonomics...
It looks neat, drives great, compact yet roomy... sporty yet practical...the perfect package...everything you need and more... just don't ever park it at a weird angle ... and never forget to turn off the lights :)

One question; would you prefer the four-door, or the two-door? :)


And if you want, I can always help you pay for the nice number plate... all you have to do is ask :)

Because you should fall drive slowly and enjoy the journey... :)
