L.O.S.T

Few days back, I received sms'es to attend an interview. The position is Marketing Development Exec in Contronix Tech. Don't ask me what Contronix means. No idea.

This company is a Singaporean company. *Guess so*. It has an office at KL.

I rejected the invitation to go for the interview. There you go opportunity. Flaps your wings and flies away...

I guess, being a teacher, which happens to have lots of holidays, has turned me into a spoilt person. I didn't think twice and pushed my luck away. *Open the door and slam it on my face*

And now I regret. I have always wanted to work in marketing field for cheese sake. But then, I don't want to forgo the luxury of school holidays. *yummy* But I hate teaching students who wouldn't want to learn. Arrogant and no manners. Not all of them but most of them. That's enough to make my life a hell. May be if the opportunity comes during school days, I'd love to try my luck for the interview.

But working in KL? Whoa, that's too far from mom. Who will stay with her while I'm away? Guess I have made the right decision. Stay in this small little peaceful town and who knows, I might be able to strike a job as lecturer in UUM or UNIMAP or Matriculation. Now, where is my Master Degree application form...

Miss you always

When there's no more forever
That's when I'll stop loving you"

The Waiting Game

Probably around this day a year ago that I called and told you that I would be back to Alor Star in 2 months time. Told you to wait for me. Silly me. Who would want to wait for me? You did, you waited. But not long enough. You should have waited for my arrival on early October, not in the middle of August! Silly me. Who would want to wait for me till the month of Oct. Probably Paul the Oct would, but not you.

I'm sorry I played the waiting game with you.

I should have returned home when mom told me you fell. I never knew it would be the thing that took you away from me. I thought you were strong. You never fell ill, you were always healthy. But you were 82. Silly me.

I read "Twenties Girl" by Sophie Kinsella and I cried. Because I related that story to you. Sadie was like you, always was in her twenties. Full of life. Never needed anyone help. Because you were a strong woman. A woman in her twenties who was strong and confident. Unlike me, 24 and weak. Silly me.

Here's a song to my dearest maemae and my friends, Ng Poh Ngoh and Tan Woan Yin.



"Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven"

"Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven"

"Beyond the door, there's peace I'm sure. And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven"
RIP.

Angels Cry

We said our last goodbye almost 10 months ago, but I still pretend that you are here by my side all the time. I imagine that you were outside my room trying to wake this big pig up at 11am on every weekends and holidays; imagine that you were watching lakorn with me every night. Fighting for remote control like we always did. Arguing just for fun. Teasing each other the way how we show our loves.

It rained cats and dogs today. It is still raining now while I’m typing this. You had always like rainy days. But you were afraid of thunder and lightning. How are you doing up there? Miss you always. Can’t wait to see you again.

P/S: I hate using Past Tense to describe you. You will always be alive in my heart.



Well it's hard to explain but I'll try if you let me
Well its hard to sustain
I'll cry if you let me
This doesn't change the way I feel about you or your place in my life
(please don't cry)
Can't you see I'm dying here?
A shot of broken heart that is chased with fear

Angels cry when stars collide
And I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way

Intentions that were pure have turned obscure
Seconds into hours
Minutes into years
Don't ask me why
(please don't cry)
I cant tell you lies

Angels cry when stars collide
And I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way.
[repeat]

My heart burns through
My chest to the floor
Tearing me silently although abruptly
Words cant hide as I'm taking you home
And I tried to see
Tried to understand your words as I'm taking you home

Angels cry when stars collide
And I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way

[repeat]

Miss You

by Westlife



I don't wanna feel
The way that I do
I just wanna be
Right here with you
I don't wanna see
See us apart
I just wanna say it straight from my heart
I miss you...

I really do. Very much.
Good night my dearest MaeMae.

Love Story

I had a movie date with LX the Evil Banana before she went back to MMU. The movie we watched is Valentine’s Day starring big names like Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner, Mr Demi Moore, Princess Mia, Jessica Alba, Jacob the Wolf and dot dot dot.

Overall I think the movie is OK, watchable, and most importantly didn’t make me taking nap in the cinema during the whole 2 hours movie.

The part that impressed me the most in the movie is the story about Kate Hazeltine, played by Julia Roberts. In the beginning of the movie, I always thought that she was going back to be with her old and ailing parent, but for sure not to the husband or boyfriend. At the end of the movie, well if you watched the movie, she took the 14 hours flight to go home for a day just to be with her son, Edison, played by Bryce Robinson.

This reminds me of a clip I watched long time ago on Thai TV channel, so I went YouTube’ng hoping to find it.

And I found it!! Here it is.

Tell me if you didn’t have teary eyes watching this clip.

Anything that is related to family, parents-children bonds stuff always leave a very great impact in my heart.

Why can’t people just end the war and bring home those kids’ parents?

FUCK WARS.

FUCK POLITICS.

Ok, screw that.

There’s another thing in the movie that I like. It’s the Morley Clarkson part. This part is played by Jessica Alba. I am totally in her shoes about the marriage thing. In the movie, Morley rejected Reed Bennent’s (Mr Demi Moore) proposal. She said yes at first, but changed her mind after that.

With the increasing of divorce rate and the number of problem kids nowadays, I wonder why people still wants to get married, waste time, waste money in doing it, and have kids later on, and divorce and leave their kids to struggle emotionally? Human are just weird.

FUCK MARRIAGE.

FUCK “FAMILY”.

(FAMILY is Father And Mother I Love You);

Notice that the “Father” and “Mother” is in singular form.

That’s all. Love Story.

Oooh la la!~

It's not that pretty. The outer look is not very "yeng".
