bomb-astik!

time is impatient. it's been almost two weeks

the fumes of garlic, one reeks

chopping leeks; repairing leaks

thank the lord, geek isn't sick!

rivers of light; blue skies

in the bright daylight

ah! even in the darkest of nights

it's such a comfort they bring delight!

a tailwind, perhaps to fly a kite?

sixty days. to spend - many ways.

live 'em like the blue jays

gay, yet never astray

Alas! remember your outlays.

roadtrips, foodheaps

it's always nice to have them

with the best of peeps!

Seems like Year Two

for this here Ngoo

wasn't all

"Boo..." and "Goo..."

haha.

through trials and (near) revivals

I'm sure we will all prevail!

wail not!

with the Big Man

how can we be frail?

blessed, indeed.

no, I don't kid.

Here's to these quirky friendships.

Ridiculously serious.

Seriously ridiculous.

(Adapted from Bob Fitts' I Love to be with You)

You give me reason to breathe again

In fact, Lord, You make it possible

like a flower blooming in the spring

like the colours of an autumn leaf

like the sea and all its majesty

that is why I love to be with You

You whisper Your love in the morning

And You cradle my head in the evening

You give me reason to dance in the sun

After I have been in the cold

an antidote to the anxious mind.

future concerns and the want-to-know-it-all tendency.

it's already been paid for.

why the despondency?

Your peace, I ask.

the seventh-week-(gl)itch

shouldn't life be as carefree as floating in mid-air?
it's a choke hold here!

help me find the way.

the skies
overcast and gray

to make hay

while still bright
is the day.

even when it means saying nay!

quickie

white lies  by  paolo nutini

perfect one to lull you to sleep

or just drift far, far away.

like fruitloops for breakfast.

just keep your eyes on the road
and nothing can go wrong

you can do so much better than this

you can do so much better than this

to all who are burdened:

here's a little something to brighten your day.

the post title is a link to it.

oh, whoa-oh!
and don't forget to thank Keane for it. 

cheers, min

oh, man...I wanna go bangkok!!

oui!

Pavarotti, Luciano

You don't need any brains to listen to music.

but... I guess this varies when it comes to which kind of music we're listening to and with what purpose the music serves as.

what's the point of listening without comprehending? or should the quote be modified to 'You don't need any brains to hear music'? makes sense, no?

nevertheless, it is a totally different situation when we treat music as a tool to unwind, and just empty the mind of all the clutter. haha. and that IS what most stressed out people need, eh? : )

take me back to the good ol' days: Hillsong United's All I Need Is You

okay, got to search for quarterly figures for Proton Holdings Bhd. FA project analysis. aaagh!



min, signing out!

briefs

Diderot, Denis 

Good music is very close to primitive language.

Ah! That's probably true since it gives you goose pimples!! hahaha.
Anyway... doing fine here in penang. Weather: a tad too hot apparently.

kena tahan jugak lah, kan?

yup, class starts tomorrow, officially! not that I'm really really looking forward to it, but yeah...
it's back to studying again. Well then, clock's ticking... signing out!

take care, won't you? : )

no lullaby la...

This feels more like a hey!-it's-already-past-noon-you-should-be-up-by-now morning call.
beautiful lyrics.
selamat malam - Faizal Tahir

Meanwhile, here's a soundtrack from the once famous Indonesian movie Tentang Dia.
very tragic.
tentang dia - Melly Goeslow & Evan

And then... the OST of Cicakman 2.
tragic, yet again.

dibius cinta - Melly & Yusry(of KRU)


Okay, last but not least, contemporary ones:
pagi yang gelap - Hujan
lagu untukmu - Meet Uncle Hussain
pari-pari di bawah angin - Meet Uncle Hussain

 
















Bon appetit!

Band Of Horses

a band I've just discovered this morning.
mild and mellow. at least for the ones I've heard so far.
click post title to visit Band Of Horses' homepage.

and they've got songs from their new album Infinite Arms.

listen to: detlef schrempf
(No, I don't know what do these two words mean. haha.)

meanwhile...

try starsailor!

bon appetit!

on leave

Self-made red packet! : ) No, not the flowers of course.

currently preoccupied with uni applications.

so... yeah, will be back soon after everything's settled.

time sure does not wait for man.
but... it's March already!

adeus!
and happy birthday, Yuen Hann!


Pick of the day : samsons! yes, I know it sounds ancient, but why bother anyway?

What a Bang!

all will be uncovered... this thursday!!!

the result of 18 months of labour.

well... one month of hard core cramming, actually.
haha. this IS the first time I'm all nerves! agh!

wishing you the best, comrades!


till then,
byebye!

pst! Padi's songs are raspy and nice. menanti sebuah jawapan is one of the more popular ones : )

perilous times?

“He directed me to go to him and then hugged me while we were standing,” he said.


(as quoted from The Star Online)

when will all these come to an end? ah, buggers ...

Had a fantastik! movie-cum-lunch with carmen and xiowei yesterday : )

tune of the day: a thousand paper cranes - mono

times when three equals to one.

indeed. pages of books do smell good. kind of addictive. well yeah, took three days to finish a five hundred pager, describing a day's events and misfortunes. I salute Dan Brown.
it is very true that books take you anywhere around the world, even to Timbuktu. some take you to extraterrestrial regions where your imagination roams free; others take you back to the 19th and 20th century during The Great Depression and the Industrial Revolution. you'd be amazed how hard ingenious criminals plan, months ahead, to rob gold worth billions of pounds in a train, or how terrible things can go wrong when a space shuttle's return carrying bacteria from outer space kills a town-full of people. sometimes even those whom you called dearest could plan your death whilst holidaying in an Oriental Express, without you suspecting they loathed you so much. impressive nonetheless.

a scene in Dickens' Hard Times. from a chapter:Starlight.

what matters is not only the joy of having finished reading something, but also the things you discover, insights you have gained along the way.

Until then, savour the scent of newspapers, magazines or novels whatsoever!
buhbye!

some not-looney-at-all tunes. this. and this.

look who's turned all crabby

no I don't mean being bad-tempered. updates coming up pretty soon.

this is honey for the ears.

pergi dulu!

it just snapped.

The Frames : Say it to me now

Feeling kind of mellow.
Like all the leaves turned yellow.
Wished I could just follow.
And not just listen to them bellow.

coldplay.

Exam falls on 14 May.
Won't be posting anything at the moment unless there's any need to.
Felt like I'm already stepping into one [grave].

au revoir, visitors!

prelude

there, there...

24-11-2008 first visit to a hill named after a tropical fruit

Save Yourself, hear for yourself.

Sept 30th - sheryiin's ...

went to a place where butterfly-cut chickens are grilled;
caught up with each other and all were slightly thrilled.

and so they came over and stayed for a while;
took a picture and neighed til some went wild.


all is good, all is well.
what more can I tell?

early Oct - dad's 52nd, california pizza kitchen

this is the CPK-BLT

pasta and pizzas were good.
six of these brought up the mood.

nay! don't be fooled,
below par they are, and left someone's pockets in need of stitching,
however they make you drool.


all is fine, we had a good dine.
too bad there weren't any wine.

Oct 19th/a day before final exam - asikin's aidilfitri open house

this is what you will get from me when your house is open.
nothing expensive but it's our token
of appreciation.

Oct 14th - yvewei's eligible to watch all genres of movies

last but not least,

Oct 26th - taking photos during mom's line dance performance

exams are over days are quite sober, time to replenish, no time to read rubbish;
packed are the days that will come your way, till there's not an hour to waste.
Jenny don't be hasty's a good piece of advice from John Mayer,
but not till everytime there're things to do I'd say "Later".

all is well, not too good, not too bad.
problems there are, where doubts and sadness fill my heart's jar.

doors of opportunity will be kept ajar,
till I manage to find one that opens to green pastures and in its vastness roam afar.


until then, fellow comrades. am content to be back!
adeus! and finally,

be merry as we celebrate for light triumphs over darkness!
be of good cheer for everything's not lost!

in the meantime I'll drown myself in radiohead.

Farewell!

(an effect of reading The Two Towers)
