breaking pencil tips

awful trial with color pencils.

I will never learn!

But I L.O.V.E the hair. MY GOODNESS.

I want that.

I tried to make the eye-shadow a different color too.

I am seriously digging spiked shoulders.

Love spikes even before it was 'IN'.

I Don't Know That Flower's Name

I observed in envy.

You were there again,

but I can't remember the color of your shirt

(was it white once more?)

And I had this feeling of security again

that you were staying, and staying for good.

That wordless promise that arrives when you did.

You showed a picture you drew with black ink.

With fast, slim lines and long, thoughtful blobbed ends.

It was on a flimsy white paper like you spent all night making it.

Drips of lavender sprayed intentionally to romantacize the piece.

It was a __________ flower.

I forgot that you were skilled with your hands.

And I forgot that you could do this.

I forgot that you could surpass me.

How did I remember now?

I observed it with envy.

It enveloped me.

Reminding that you were happy and moved on

and made another masterpiece, forgetting me.

Where every time I start to draw,

I end up erasing everything over and over again

until I let go of it and realized I could move on.

The flower.

Why did you draw a flower?

Why did you made it in black ink?

Why did you ignore the colors it came with?

Why did you show me that drawing?

I woke up with the question unanswered.

That feeling of security evaporated as I inhaled the waking.

That beautiful drawing of that flower was gone but remained.

You showing me the flower was gone but remained.

Though, it was still gone.

And I watched with envy.

The Volume Is Only 84 Percent

My sister said she can hear the songs

I'm hearing in my earphones from

eight feet away.

And that's how I listen to my music.

(But I'm starting to turn my head every two minutes

to the door because I keep hearing someone coming in.)

I Love This Movie

I didn't remember the name so I have to type "Russell Crowe" into Google

and pops out "Russell Crowe Movies" and I thought, "That could work."

It's a predictable so-and-so flick

but it made me fall in love with Provence in Southeastern France.

I just remember there was this certain golden glow in the movie

and the empty swimming pool drenched in autumn leaves I found was rather poetic.

South of France.

How lovely does that sound?

I Hate Parking Technology

You know how people complain about airports?

The meals? The seats? The attendants?

Well, I'm not bragging, but living in Malaysia and

getting MAS airlines as our major choice,

so far we haven't had any of those problems.

Until today.

It wasn't the plane.

It was the parking. At the airport.

Oh yeah.

My Dad was finished cancelling some tickets

and as we got back in the car, we keep on

seeing these signs that go

AUTOPARK

BEFORE CLAIMING YOUR VEHICLE PLEASE MAKE YOUR PAYMENT

And we keep on asking,

"WHERE IS THIS PLACE WHERE WE NEED TO PAY?"

"WHAT IS AUTOPARKING?"

"HOW DO WE GET OUT OF HERE???"

So my Dad decided I should go out and ask someone in the airport, handing me the ticket and 10 ringgit.

"If there is no payment counter in there, then these people are seriously stupid."

I went out with my brother and we kind of looked around the bottom floor of the airport

like complete idiots and I asked my brother to ask the security guard but he kept ignoring me

because I know he did not want to ask that.

Instead I asked him to ask a Maybank person.

Even the Maybank Person didn't know.

I was walking past some of the shops and not seeing any payment counters,

I was completely exasperated enough by

1. not finding the payment counter

2. upset that we would be stuck in the airport forever like Tom Hanks in The Terminal

that was based on a true story which I can't remember who exactly but if you've seen the movie, you get it.

3. my brother is so unreliable (like that surprised me)

4. I was getting hungry.

I stalked up to the Hospitatily Center (I mean, COME ON)

and I asked ever so politely, "Excuse me, do you know where to pay for the parking outside?"

And the women (the Hospitality Center inside was 'owned' by Sutera Harbour, go figure)

began to direct me that it was outside and it was "that gray box outside, near the entrance."

Of course. Why didn't I think of that?

Because of course every grey box I see is an autopark payment counter!

---In my defense, I have NEVER been exposed to the way of autoparking, obviously enough.---

So I went outside, my brother tailing behind me like a burly bodyguard

and approached an object that passed of as "a grey box" and tentively looked at the other side.

OH MY GOSH THEY ASKED PLEASE INSERT TICKET

I was waving down my Dad as he and my other brother,

after parking the car and came to check up on our progress,

quite pleased that I found the booth.

I let an older man use it first because I was afraid it didn't give change.

(We were only there 10 minutes tops.)

I saw the man slipped in his ticket, then a 10 ringgit in it

and *plunk plunk* goes the change pocket.

He took it and went to his merry way.

I was quite dubious by this new relevation of technology in our town.

When all of us assembled, I excitedly slipped in the ticket

and hesitantly slipped in the 10 ringgit (it was slightly crinkled)

and our change was RM8.50

Are they going to give us that in coins?

No! It didn't.

On the other side of the coin pocket is the paper money pocket

and there was our change!

I might sound a little excited here but wow, this booth has

the intelligence of an ATM machine!

But then how are they suppose to know that we payed?

When we finally drove off to the exit, I saw a similar grey machine

and I was like, "there's one RIGHT THERE!"

But it wasn't the same. Here's where'd you put the ticket.

No wonder they spit it back out from the machine earlier.

Dad put the payed ticket in the machine.

It swooped it in and never back out.

And the bargate in front went 90 degrees.

"So, where do we go now?" Dad asked.

In a not-so-simultaneous chorus, "Eat."

the booth was slightly on the left side of this place, outside

mischievous brother trying to hide from me and think I didn't know!

I Was Like Mary Poppins

Quote of the Day:

Dad asked me to take a red umbrella with me into the airport in case it rains.

As we were leaving...

Me : Hey Pa, I think everybody's looking at me weirdly because of this umbrella.

Dad : *snootily* Why? Are you embarrassed by it?

Me : No, I think I'm pretty cool.

He Wants To Eat Ya!

Mohinder giving me a cute meow.

I can't believe we're going to leave him soon :'(

Now That Song Is Permanently In My Head

Is it weird that my friends *Like the video
I shared in Facebook which was
'Shiny Teeth and Me' from Fairly Oddparents

because I had just learnt that
Leonnie just had taken off her braces?

Yes.

Don't you love them for it?

Yes.

- The Way Things Are, Roger McGough

It Is Ridiculously Savoury

I am still going to school during the holidays for anything but summer school.

(Evidently, a teacher of mines is holding one for weak Malay Language.)

Well, success is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.

Hm.

Not liking that percentage.

AND

Memorable Quote of the Day

Teacher Tok commenting on how young Stephy's mum look.

Steph : She's 46.

T. Tok : *looks surprised* She looked like she could be near my age.

Steph : Oh, 40?

T. Tok : *tersely* 35.

OUCH.

Advice : Always say they look 20. ALWAYS.

Which kind of reminds me of my going to restaurant and always be called 'Kak' by the waitresses.

When I come :

Selamat datang, Kak.

WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME?

When I leave : Datang lagi, Kak.

NOT ON YOUR LIFE I WON'T.

But I'd be weekly greeted by that because I admit, the food there is just too good.

Don't they know that calling women 'Adik' is a general compliment unless it's

SERIOUSLY OBVIOUS THAT THEY'RE NOT AN 'ADIK'

EG. WOMEN WITH CANES, WOMEN WITH BENT SPINES ETC ETC

which in this case,

AM I THAT SERIOUSLY OBVIOUSLY OLD?

BECAUSE I'M STILL, JUST LIKE, SIXTEEN.

THANK GOD YOUR NASI GORENG IS AMAZING.

I'll Just Dot This Down

Ideas.

Pooping---popping---like mushrooms.

yeahhhhh

Now I need to figure out which one to do.

All came just when I have bucketful of things to do.

Is it true then that inspirations strikes only, and only if,

you are actively conducting a very pressured amount of workload?

Well.

Hades Supports Awareness for Child Violence

We're going to enter the second week of holiday.

I don't know why I'm watching each grain of sand

falling down the hourglass like a murderer waiting for doom.

I should relax myself and set my goals for next year.

Reflect and prepare.

(I'm so happy how calm and centered I am!)

Sister : Do you want me to teach some Form 5 Physics?

Me : I'm kind of sleepy.

Yeahhh.

Not a good way to 'prepare.'

With SPM due in one year.

I feel awfully ill-prepared.

Oh well, I'll scold myself about that later.

I need to finish reading my story books :)

And I'm hearing too much electronic songs

that I am seriously thinking that it might dumb me down

with the pulsing (but oh so infectious) BOOM BOOM POW (no, not the song.)

And watching TV. But we watched Mulan just now and I don't think that's a bad thing.

We seriously memorized everything they say by heart

even the intonations of their speech and the sound effects

and even how they scream.

If only I remembered my studies like that.

If only.

Anyways, I have no idea why I'm updating this

(even updating it here is still a blur concept)

but I changed my profile picture in Facebook.

No, it's not an "ugly" picture of me.

(By ugly, a moderately good picture that I have

the nerve to caption it as ugly so people would

write nicety-ingested comments to me.)

No. But it's a picture of Hades from Disney's Hercules?

Why?

For the awareness of child abuse.

And if I could do only that, then it's fine for me.

Why Hades?

Because...um, no real cause.

He's cool like that.

my status :

comments on the picture :

I kind of whitened Chan's picture there to avoid...identify theft.
(Since it's easy because all of our pictures are cartoons.)

Stardom Here I Come

I was like "WHAAAT?"

I was ogling at my friend's laptop screen.

She has mad skills in Photoshop yo.

And she was designing the school yearbook cover.

An honor. An honor.

Is it too early to say this but:

This is by far the best yearbook cover EVAH.

(Did I tell you how maniacally skillful she was in Photoshop?)

Not just because there's me in it.

Well, I am not intending to be narcissistic

but the size of the photo of me was so small

that it could be pull off that I was not even in it.

The design has some memorable pictures from this year

and one of them was when we sold cotton candy for SRM.

There was Bren and Steph and I was squinting to make sure

to see this tudung-clad girl between them in a yellow Comet outfit

and I was like, "Is this...me?"

"Yup."

GAH D:

No way, ho-zay.

I'm in the yearbook cover!

What next, Vogue?

My Eyes Are Staring At The Screen Like A Madman

This is SO BAD.

I shouldn't.

But I did.

Drank two more cups of teh tarik for two days in a row.

Not good.

I can feel my pupils dilating

and I'm jumping on my seat

because of under-activity.

I'm shivering like I just dunked my head in a gallon of water below zero temperature.

Yet, I feel invincible.

You'd Always Make Me Feel Like A Teen Forever, Metro Station

To the good times and the good songs ahead.

The longevity of Shake It by Metro Station.

The very first time I heard this song, I instantly like it.

The message is clear and simple: Shake it.

So shake it, I will.

It had its prime two years ago (if I recall correctly) where

it played on airwaves constantly and

blasted on shops' radios everywhere I go.

Then, I tried to run away when it comes up.

Sometimes, the tune drifted into my mind

and I have to stop myself from whatever I was doing

and figure out what is this sudden tune's name.

Now, when in the rare moments I catch it on the radio,

the song hits me back and I had never grow weary of it

after the buzz about it died down.

Probably, after 20 years from now,

I'd still feel the same way hearing this song.

It just really takes me back.

And I'm still sixteen.

There Were Frogs, Fairies and A Rich Mole

After one week of school holidays,

what's my prediction for the five weeks

still ahead?

Anything but productive.

I tried my hardest to make my day as fulfilling as I could manage.

I couldn't manage that much.

I write, draw and listen as much as I can

and yet, I feel like my life is leaking away.

I need to go out more.

Should it be that?

An adventure?

A Great If?

Well, not like I can get a car ride to go anywhere,

much less to a Great If.

Last night, my sister and I

were high on teh tarik.

We couldn't sleep a wink.

It sort of when you're undergoing surgery

and your anesthesia didn't work.

You want to fall asleep so badly

but your mind doesn't let you.

We ended up having a blast from the past

about a little movie we saw when we were children called

Thumbelina.

We were remembering the characters, the plot, the songs they sang.

The whole she-bang.

We haven't thought about that movie in ages.

Teh Tarik does things to you.

A Spike, It's A Doozy

Holy.

I'm not even going to end that.

I just logged in and checked out my blog

when I flicked my eyes to the right to my widgets.

And I went, "That CAN'T be right."

40 views overnight?

I don't think so.

But alas, checking my stats,

there was a serious jump on my views.

It's looked like the stock market upside down.

And all to my Some Playlist Fun post.

You people really like that game, huh?

Although, I may not post up a new playlist game a long time.

What I'd Do For Ice-Cream

This was a dream I had yesterday night.

One of the most ridiculous dreams I've ever remembered in my life.

Following this would be pure fiction created by my unconscious mind.

Start.

I was in City Mall with my sister.

We were just roaming around, with no real intentions.

(In my dreams when I'm in a mall, there would always be a carpet shop

or a Malay clothes shop. I don't know why. This dream was no exception.)

The next thing I remember was that we were near an ice-cream booth.

It only sold two things : chocolate & peppermint ice-cream.

If you buy only the chocolate or only the peppermint it would cost you about RM6

but weirdly in this dream, if you want both at the same amount it will

cost you back RM9.

See? Getting ridiculous already.

But it doesn't stop there.

Guess who was selling it?

Megamind.

Yeah.

Him.

Out of all the male characters that crosses my mind everyday,

my mind chose a blue alien with a big forehead that has a fish as his sidekick.

Aaaaiiissssshhhhhhhhhh.

Surprisingly, Dream Me isn't so different than Reality Me.

Both of us thought paying an additional RM3 for the ice-cream was beyond madness.

I was slightly proud of myself that I retained my stingy persona even in Dreamland.

So I gave up at the prospect of indulging myself on ice-cream

but before I left I said to Dream Megamind,

"What's left, save for me, okay?"

And I winked.

I winked at Megamind.

What the hell was wrong with me?

I know it didn't really happen

but that must be one of the most embarrassing things

I have ever done in my life.

I can't believe I'm such a sell out for ice-cream.

I'm so cheap. Cheap. Cheap. CHEAP.

Would I do anything for ice-cream?

I even winked to character voiced by Will Ferrell?

I'm very disappointed with Dream Me.

Very.

And here is another dream

where it ends with me having no ice-cream.

At least this other post had a better hero.

We dream of hope, we dream of change, of fire, of love, of death. And then it happens; the dream becomes real, and the answer to this quest, this need to solve life's mysteries finally shows itself like the glowing light of the new dawn. So much struggle for meaning, for purpose. And in the end, we find it only in each other. Our shared experience of the fantastic and the mundane. The simple human need to find a kindred. To connect. And to know in our hearts...that we are not alone.

Electrocuted by A Band

this image came into my head from the song

One In A Million by Breathe Electric

more accurately the part which goes :

It's never black and white it seems...to be a shade of grey between

behind the scenes...

I was thinking of making three copies of it and have one white, one black and a grey one between to be one whole picture. But my Photoshop has problems so I couldn't make that vision come true :(

Maybe I should buy a better one.

(Eheheheh...)

This guy (what's the name? Let's just name him Electro, since I can't think of anything better right now and I'll edit the name later and hey, why won't make a salute to Breathe Electric for inspiring him), anyways, he took so long to finish. He has the most infuriating style I had ever been forced to draw.

While drawing the bottom half of the shirt, I shouted to it,

"Why won't you draw your f*cking self?!"

(Of course, I just mouthed the F word.)

It was the stupid jacket and its stretchy thing at the end. (Check out the Rock chain on the right hand. Why did I even bothered on the details?). After sketching and thinking it looked pretty good, I thought that should get it done by tonight. Just after outlining the left sleeve it dawned to me: this is going to take some time.

I hadn't have my lunch and when I become finally aware of my surroundings like I just came out from a basement I've been kidnapped to for ten years, it was already near 7 pm. I just realized that my hands were shaking from lack of glucose. And I wasn't thinking clearly as well.

After completing it, I should have put off the scanning for tomorrow. I didn't. Instead, I took out the printer/scanner and while plugging pendrive in so I could move it to my laptop so I could retouch it there, but I electrocuted myself with the metal holder. Three times.

My mind, which was already not thinking well, buzzed like I had a jugful of coffee. I couldn't handle speech properly. My mind can't process things fast enough. I fear to touch water.

Yeah, things like these happen to me.

Good news is...I got better. I'm not that hyped up. I can still enunciate 'enunciate.'

I can still touch water. (BIG score for that! I would have died within three days.)

Stupid electric.

Wait. I just noticed that this is VERY ironic.

I drew a piece because of Breathe Electric and got electrocuted trying to finish it.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

No.

No 'HAHA.'

Stupid band.

I almost died.

*but I still love yoooooou

Radio? Stereo?

" You told me to lie.

I told you to die. "

Not 3 minutes after I post this as my Facebook status,

I've got wave of responses for it.

I have no idea how these things get into my head.

A transmission?

Why Does My Name Have To Be So Fancy?

Confession:

One of the reasons why I am in the Editorial Board

is to make sure that my name is spelled correctly.

With a name with 'Q' in it, how can I not be paranoid?

Three More Things Won't Get Me Fat

Mmm. My sister's SPM is tomorrow.

I have to finish my work for yearbook.

Also update on my stories so that my creative juices keep flowing.

(Ideas are so gone. Everything has been there, done that stamped on it.)

We are going to move after SPM too.

Sounds like a relaxing holiday?

I need more ice-cream.

I had one before because my Mum needed to fill up the gas tank

because my Dad is going to drive her car to the airport and

he grumbles about how little the oil is in the tank so my Mum and I

went to a Shell Station near my school and got some ice-cream---and oil.

The people that work there are very friendly.

Me Lady Guy

Dua ice-cream. Four ringgit please.

*hands RM10*

Okay...mahu plastic?

Yeah...yeah... :)

*gives back change and puts stuffs in plastic*

Sudu mahu?

Y-yeah... :)

Okay...jap

*looks in a drawer*

Eh, mana sudu ni?

Ada sudu kah?

Ini?

*holds up a bent plastic spoon*

Ada lain kah?

Itu saja yang mereka bagi.

Sori miss, tiada sudu lah.

Ah, ni hah.

*gives wooden spoon*

Okay. Thank you.

Thanks.

Then Mum had the foresight to see that two ice-creams

were not enough because I have five siblings at home.

I only bought two for my Sister and I.

Apparently in Mathematics:

2<5

Therefore : 2/5 = 0.4

Hence, we are NOT going to share 0.4 of the ice-creams among ourselves.

So, I have to get out of the car once more

and purchase three more.

On my way to the cashier, the floor was wet and I bumped to an old guy.

We simultaneously said "Sorry."

I'm always scared to bump into strangers especially old men

because my past experience with them was either looking at you pervertedly or

staring at you angrily for invading their private space with your elbow or hips.

But this man must have a good day with the awesome

customer service in that gas station where they greeted

him with an enthusiastic, "Hello, Sir!" (Regular visitor? Perhaps.)

That he just glanced at me, smiling as I payed for the ice-creams.

The guy who was on the cashier before looked at me

disapprovingly at the +3 ice-cream I was paying.

I almost wanted to blurt out that I had a lot of siblings

but thought better of it and decided not to justify myself.

I wasn't that fat.

" See, I have this theory. Whether it's fate or choice, people break down into only two categories. You're either a robot, or an alien. My debate teacher would call that reductive. I call it a neat expression of a larger truth. Robots operate out of programs — conventional logic. They follow the rules. Robots scan the world from side to side. Aliens are more... abstract thinkers. If they need to break a rule to keep their own paths, they do. Without fear. Aliens look down and up... when they choose to. I'm not condemning one or the other, but, I'd rather be alone than be surrounded by robots. And robots could never even see someone like me."
