I've worked hard all my life hoping to sit on the same table as the big boys. But when I finally did, I found nothing but poison and it's making me sick and disgusted.
I need some fresh air. |

| I just cannot fix you |
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
Your silence indicates that you do not have the answers to my questions. We've talked and you seemed dazed and lost when I asked just how sure you were about settling down with him. I just could not believe my ears when you said you were ready to leave US, your family, your friends. All in the name of love?! I didn't know love is blind until that day. Yes it blinded you my friend. I suggest that you go back to basics and seek guidance from God coz like the rest, I'm not sure if this is a wise decision.
Right now, I am witnessing one of the most beautiful image in my life. In the living room, my brother Khay is helping little Atiqah with her jigsaw pieces. She's been trying to put them together for a few days but it just never got together. After all, there are about 500 little jigsaw pieces so how can you expect a 7 year old to fix it all by herself right? So Khay, being the sweet older brother that he is, helps her with it. Ain't that sweet? No amount of money can buy the warmth, joy and comfort seeing my younger siblings spending some quality time putting up together a giant jigsaw puzzle.
And finally.... Miss Erin's back and we're gonna go catch Road to Guantanamo! |

| Out of fear & crying myself to sleep... |
I reached home around midnight today after going melawat (visiting the family of the late Abg Ishak).
By 1 plus in the morning, I said my prayers and plonked myself to bed. I tossed and tossed in bed but I just could not sleep. Then... I felt it. A sudden surge of fear... FEAR OF DEATH. Suddenly I felt breathless and I started to panic and out of fear, I woke up, switched on the light and the pc, tried checking my email but I just could not seem to access it and thus, I decided to blog.
So many things have happened lately. A sister is having some personal problems of her own. Babe, I want to meet and talk to you. Shall we have a sisterly chat in person? I have so many questions to ask. I'm confused, disappointed and angry with you and you know that. And yes, you're right that it's okay to cry. But do you realize that you're making others whom you love cry too? We were having sleepless nights when you did not go home. I may not be a model daughter, sister or friend but will you give me the chance to help you out?
Naddy and I gave Zak a birthday surprise on wednesday night. Zak wanted a radio for her room so Naddy and I went down to Mustafa Ctr to buy her one and since the radio was huge, I suggested to Naddy that we proceed to Zak's place and surprise her with the gift. But... we were both disappointed to know that Zak had just bought a radio for her room! It was a sleek looking Panasonic radio set. But anyway, Zak was surprised by our sudden visit and the gift and Hafiz drove us to Alif for dinner, picked us up after that and even drove Naddy and I back home. Oh how sweet! I hoped that Zak had fun that night!
And the shocker of the week had to be the sudden death of comedian, Ishak Ahmat in Jakarta. May Allah SWT bless his soul and let's all congregate in prayers for his soul to rest in peace.
Nobody escapes death and it is always wise to be prepared.
Right now, I miss Erin so much. Her birthday's coming soon but she still has yet to return to Singapore. When Natra told me about the movie, "Road to Guantanamobay", the one name that came to mind was Erin's. She'd definitely love it and I want to watch it with her. |

A story of 2 love affairs.
A father's love for his five sons.
And one son's love for his father, a love so strong it compels him to live a lie. That son is Zac Beaulieu, born on the 25th of December 1960, different from all his brothers, but desperate to fit in. During the next 20 years, life takes Zac on a surprising and unexpected journey that ultimately leads him to accept his true nature and, even more importantly, leads his father to love him for who he really is.
So go CRAZY with the movie.
And thanks Zul & Irn for the wonderful company! |
