so i thought, three Sundays burned like that is going to be awfully boring tillllll, i learned that,

1) zak is the class monitor. really. like seriously.

2) values are really important.especially PATIENCE(which most of us always forget and take it lightly. i can go on and on about this, but i guess we shall just self-reflect it upon ourselves:) )

3) Dr. Haim Ginott is THE MAN:

teachers - instrument of power.

I have come to a frightening conclusion.
I am the decisive element in the classroom.
It is my personal approach that creates the climate.
It is my daily mood that makes the weather.
As a teacher I possess tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous.
I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.
I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal.
In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis
will be escalated or de-escalated, and a child humanized or de-humanized.

so, salutes to all teachers. teachers of the different subjects, teachers of love and teachers of life:)

4) i have to do freaking assignment and a test. blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.

5) shaz is not as quiet as i thought she would be! LOL:)

so, it's not that bad as it seems. and seeing Dr Haim Ginott's hypothesis in a different light, all that matters is YOU, yourself, as one can just be an instrument of inspiration, a decisive element in any environment, a tremendous power to make anyone's life joyous and de-escalate a crisis.

you - instrument of inspiration :)

it's wonderful moments like THIS,

gives me every reason to love, live and laugh,
with all my heart and soul.

MOO-MOO!
and i think i am getting DARKER, no, not tan-ner, but DARKER. wailsssss! haha

NANANANANA, a girl who has a BIG BIG heart.

the day i learned BMW has another meaning, rather than just a normal luxurious car brand.

the day me and my girls prefer cows than boys.

the day that kodoks discovered marina south pier and made it our own playground.
the day we celebrated HARI RAYA even before ramadhan. ish ish ish! haha

and the day that we bid nurain farewell for her summer school in london and celebrated azura's 23rd birthday:)

relationships bend, but never break as we find each identities, and embrace each other's differences, with an open heart&open mind& mutual understanding.
<3

the walk from PS to Cine was super kelakar nak mampos especially having my arms locked with su on my left, and zak on my right.

both of them refused to let them go and clearly, from an outsider point of view,the joke is on me.

tak betul punya orang..... haha

MAMPOS! haha. cilin! sayang kau gils babs:)

and zak, kau la yang paling giler. haha:) the craziest one of them all, really.

Love is a much more barbaric emotion than we think.

It doesn't civilise or soften the edges of life at all,

but what i do strongly believe in is that,

Love, is always all around, and always there:)

i love you. i seriously do:)

thank you guys.*hugs

i feel almost ashamed just to have to stoop down to a certain level just to justify the situation. but maybe it's necessary.

it's such a sad thing you deleted that post. if you're not going apologise for threatening to defame me with the 'truth' that you are so sure that Sofi doesn't know, the humiliation you get from writing that entry would at least make up for it. i hated it's contents because it was malicious, accusatory, naive, petty & inaccurate. but what i loved was other people's reaction to it. your reputation as a cool, sensible dude went down like an iron balloon.

"sialah petty sak dier"
"sialah aku tak caya dier macam gini"
"i couldn't believe he's so immature"

those are not my words my boy. like Sofi and i said, we can't control other people's opinion. their opinions aren't decided by what we ask them to think. it's shaped by their perception of your actions and reactions. so if people think badly of you, don't point fingers at us for badmouthing you. and girl, people already bitched about you long before Sofi & i were together. so if you want to play victim so much, go ahead, publish your version of your story. maybe you can gain some sympathy points from there.

if you see people talking in hushed tones, they are not bitching about you. if you see people looking at your direction, they are not admiring you. if people blog about a certain character that they did not put a name to, they are not referring to you. the world doesn't revolve around you. only his world does. get over it.

with love, hugs & kisses, bites & pinches

My fellow martians and venusians,

human beings are born on this planet with a powerful brain to think wisely and a heart to be affectionate and love one another. ultimately, it's entirely up to the individual to make use of this most powerful tool in the universe, the brain, to make wise decisions and react accordingly. of course, being humans, emotions do get it in the way, be it good or bad, and sometimes, not getting the better of them.

RATIONALITY AND EMOTIONS.

it is only right to say that making wise decisions can be very cumbersome and careless. however, only with thorough analysis of the situation, and also, lessons learned from mistakes, one can come out as a smarter, stronger and much wiser person. but, without having an open mind in the analysis and looking back at our mistakes, when can one ever learn?

emotions come in many level on intensity, be it happy or sad. it's only normal for an individual to react to the situation and it's perfectly understandable. but, the difference between a very emotional person and an immature person is that they get their emotions get the better of them without thinking things through objectively. (key word: OBJECTIVELY)

human beings are also entitled to exercise their thoughts and opinions be it in any form, be it facebook, blogs and even people. but again, the difference between a person who views the situation subjectively, and a person who views the situation objectively, is probably not thinking hard enough and live with the ripples of repercussions due to an unwise decision.

this unpredictable, but yet wonderful world that human beings live in, is a very very very small world indeed. everyone's connected( read on wikipedia: SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION) and people, of course, communicate with each other. in this communication channels, there can be a million and one issues that can be discussed and not only one. whether you like their opinions or not, it's the freedom of speech that one ought to understand and look at it OBJECTIVELY. though objectivity can be achieved within the comfort zone of rationality, it would better if it's achieved outside the comfort zone to get the whole naked truth.

SOFI

sofi is a human being, who has been on this planet earth for 21 years and like many others, been through a lot of ups and downs. many many things happened in the past that she took it personally and emotionally without thinking it rationally and of course, got the worse of her. but thankfully, without those painful experiences, there will never be room for her to learn. room for her to grow as an individual. she also understands the fact that in life, there are bound to be a million and one more difficult challenges that she could face in future. though she is afraid, very very afraid of it, she will get through it with rationality and objectivity.

ZAK

like sofi, he is a human being, who has been on this planet earth for 21 years of his life. it's only part and parcel of life that many awful and awesome things happened in his life, in the past, present and future. and seriously, for sofi to look up to someone who is so calm, composed and rational in any kind of situation, she wishes to be like him some day. zak brings out the best in sofi and most importantly, sofi loves every single thing about zak.


it's been such a drama-mama week that sofi can mistook herself from suffering from schizophrenia. haha. but in all seriousness, i think her friends, her sister(my mama), bibik nadiah and auntie nadia has been FARKING AWESOME. has always been and will always be.
really really.

Yours Sincerely,
Redha (a human being baby who is 2 years old, but has a maturity level of a 21 year old)

I've always wanted to share this, what su octopus told me and it's damn hilarious laaaaa.

su octopus(because she dances like one): eh eh... rizah is damn funny laaa. kkkkkk...... what does PMS stand for?

su octopus's khai: Premenstrual system

su octopus: Wrong!

zak: No laaa... it's Premenstrual Syndrome (member action confident nak mampos ahhhh)

su octopus: Salah! PMS issssssssssssssssssssssssssss P-E-R-A-N-G-A-I M-A-C-A-M S-I-A-L.

and coming from a girl's point of view, i couldn't agree more.
PERANGAI MACAM SIAL!!! haha.

su octopus then starts pouring teh susu on everyone's lapppp.
hahahahahahahahahahaha!
i love you giler:)

Like mother, like daughter.

Maybe it had something to do with the perfectly positive correlated relationship of the characteristics between mother-daughter,
maybe it doesn't?

Like history, like present and future.

Maybe it had something to do with the fantastically colourful history,
maybe it doesn't?

Like favours, like favourite flavours.

Maybe it had something to do with an ulterior motive,
maybe it doesn't?

Like indifferent, like prententious.

Maybe it had something to do with the marvellous capabilties of the individual,
maybe it doesn't?

Like sensitivity, like PMS-ing

Maybe it had something to do with the enormous mood swings,
maybe it doesn't?

Like close proximity, like discomfort.

Maybe it had something to do with the distance and extreme discomfort,
maybe it doesn't?
.

There are a million and one possibilities with a few percentage of certainties and also,
a million and one certainties with one possibility at a time.
What you see, what you hear and what you feel can be reasoned out by rationality and logic.
But what you can't see, what you can't hear and what you can't feel, will eventually show, good or bad.
All one can do, is grasp on something so sure&so strong&so real and go through with the ebb and flow of life, TOGETHER.

LOVE.

come people! meet my dad! and in this particular picture, he really looks like Colonel Sanders(KFC). so, yesterday, particularly yesterday, he was being so lame(which was not a surprise to me) that i just have to share it.LOL

5th July. room 13++, room 19++, room 23++, room 24++ @ swissotel&fairmont with family and friends:)

then we flyyyyyyyy . sky-high!

and then, i miss you terribly already. it's 12 noon already. so WAKE UPP!!! haha:)

You know, Facebook is SO phenomenal that i don't even blog so often now due to the constant interaction with people in wall posts and photo comments. I mean, yes, THE blog is an avenue to express your feelings about day-to-day life or just random thoughts, but i guess the HUGE difference is that Facebook is much more interactive. Instant updates, eye-popping status, incriminating photos, hot gossips and whatever-nots. But, that doesn't mean the blog is defunct, friendster is. C'mon i can't recall when was the last time i conscientiously updated it and sent testimonials. Ultimately, Facebook rocks my socks and what are you waiting for? Get busy baby! haha :)


kana, i really love the lengga!!!!!!thanks hun. (is that how you spell it? or is it lenga, lengja, lengok langgar?) haha. that was very an improptu catch up, i love it but, don't kill me okay? i accidentally told su about the plan! we MUST meet up and discusslhow how how howww! :)

till then, I cant wait for bollywood night tom! i miss you hun.

Su happy feet, if God ever allow halal lesbian marriage, i swear you would be the first one that i want to marry. haha. i don't know what kind of magic technique you use, but each time i am at the lowest point in my life, you somehow managed to cure me fast by ranting, wailing and hard-core bitching till the point that we both are so amused at ourselves. i read your blog and can't help it, but to think about all those funny thoughts that we shared, in our minds about people, including ourselves. HAHA. -don't even get me started- but all in all, i really understand why, psychology is your major and why, our paths crossed way back in 2003 :)

you rock Su happy feet.
and i love you so damn bloody much.

the thought of attending an Indian wedding with my whole entire kecoh family on the 12th is itching my backside to dance hindustani songs in my room. so, i blasted mohabhatein from my phone and just when i was about to dance dance, i got emotional. ZARKENTAL. you better come back to sg now, i tell you! haha.i know, i know, what a song to dance to rite? but i just wanted to have a little bit of fun. so yeap, he's away for another holiday in Perth and of course, i am freaking jealous because i should be the one having endless holidays, NOT HIM.haha. but, oh wells, "holidaying" in sg is not that bad, considering that i have been catching up with friends, planned or unplanned anddd watching brothers and sisters every waking minute .

i like kitty. no, i LOVE kitty.i admire her strength as a woman, her guts to fight every argument objectively and her confidence in any kind of situation. it puts me in a position where i want to be part of the walkers, part of a dysfunctional family with a million and one issues. all in all, this show is addictive and zak, you are probably right about the previous entry on how "sad" i was. it could be due to the fact that it shows the extreme end of a dysfunctional family in an unpredictable world. but at the end of the day, you know, it's between you and God. just you and Allah. AWESOME.

come home soon, hun.
