I Need IT.

I need a new laptop. Period.

Relating to my previous post, this does not count as something 'unnecessary'. I am sick of Microsoft Windows. I need a stable, trust-worthy Mac. Please! I am tired of my laptop breaking down in the middle of me writing a report. Someone out there, if you have a monthly salary of $100,000 do send me a $2000 cheque (a harmless 2%) please? And while you're at it, please donate for Palestine's solidarity as well. Sad, sad times not only for Muslims, but humanity overall.

But, yeah. New Macbook.

Adios.

When is enough, enough?

I am in no position to complain, but seriously I feel really guilty every single time my dad sends me my monthly money. It's like he goes out of his way to the bank and sends me a part of his hard-earned oversea-living-money for me to get through my life here. As if the money from my sponsors aren't enough, I need extra support from my extra special sponsor FAMA. When is enough enough for me?? Spend it away Q, like a spoilt rotten brat. 

SO, I have decided to FINALLY make a resolution: (Note that for the past 21 years I have yet to have a resolution) My new year resolution will be to reduce my money consumption, save up, and restrain from helping the economy by spending money on unnecessary things. If I have saved last 3 months' FAMA, I would've saved enough for a goddamn saliva tantalizing macbook.

Despite my resolution, I still wanna proclaim my undying love for my dad, whose advice and paychecks have been my backbone all my life. Such a noble, alim but fun, sometimes overachieving, great dad. I once saw this award Oscar-like trophy which says "Best Supporting Dad in Financial Crisis" and I knew the most deserving person would be him.

Alright, this is just a tad too creepy.

I don't know who this is, my sister got him off Myspace. I know it is unethical [click for Hubab's view on this matter] to steal his picture but I can't freaking help it! He kinda reminds me of someone really, really close...

guess who's who? gives me chills.

It has come time.....

**Warning! This is a picture post**

The time when you get that tingling feeling in your gut, wrenching your soul in agony, telling you that you took TOO LONG OF A BREAK. I'm bored stiff here in Oman. And I have a sudden, longing urge for Professor Schnelle's face, no matter how ancient he is.

Don't get me wrong, I love being with my family but right now I'm missing my life back in the States (Notice how I automatically used "back in the states"? I clearly remember about 2 months back it was "back in Oman/Malaysia").

Honestly, I think it's Muscat, Oman. I feel really really sick of my social life, or lack of it here. I MISS MY FRIENDS IN MALAYSIAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Been looking at pictures and oh I had some wonderful times in Miri, no matter how lame that small town is. And I promised a few pics, so might as well put them up. And Allah, my English sounds awful. I don't remember writing up a post takes up too much time? Does it? Oh whatever.

Anyways, here's a reminiscence of the good times I had back in my dear home town:

1. Let's start with Esplanade. Ah gotta love the beach and bitches.

2. Ain and K, doing half love, half fist fight.
3. The mini motorcycle. And the "Seronok gile naik bende ni" embarrassing statement.
4. The couple who always make me wish Sakinah would fly over to Miri.
5. Promised a picture of Gjul's wife. Just got a blurry one, sorry!
6. Reunion with Dols and P-head.
7. Esplanade again.
8. The new BFF Nadia Jalani.
9. Yazid/P-head's trusty Proton.
10. That shisha will never go away.
11. The posse.
12. Mr Gjul kita.
And let me end this post with two lost Curtin University Visitors, complete with Visitor Pass. Thank you Ain for giving us the insightful tour.

END OF PART I. There you go. I updated.

Just because.

Went to Lame Ol' Bekenu

Too busy to write anything. Just go here, complete with pics.

AND, pretty soon I will also make a long post with all pictures I took with my friends here. Or, I might as well just post them on facebook or something. Easier to share. Oh well, we'll see which one is easier.

And Shahrul, why no sound from you?

OH! AND SEPANYOL TELAH MENGALAHKAN JERMAN! Hubab, Torresmu sgt mengujakan!

Quick update from Miri, Sarawak

Anyone who wants to come to Miri, COME! COME! Lol.

Dropped by to make a quick update, and to tell everyone I'm not dead yet. I've been having tons of fun here in Miri, having an actual LIFE, hence the lack of updates. I really really missed (and almost forgot) the times I used to have with my friends here. Tunggu kau jak tok Mi, akhir gilak kau balit.

Also, I'm able to get online thanks to my neighbor who is stupid enough not to lock their wireless connection. Thank you very much.

Guess that's all. The connection here is too slow to load pictures, so don't count on me being patient to even upload one. BUT WAIT!! I almost forgot, Zaid asked to me upload a few videos of him up on Youtube (he's an avid Youtube-er now) so yeah, he has 2 videos up, of him messing with my camera at my Nenek's house, which I will post as well! That's all folks.

Balik kampung

After three days here, we received news that my beloved grandma was admitted to the hospital, and things aren't looking too good. So tonight my mom, Zaid, and Aida will be on the only flight back to Miri. All very last minute, amidst tons of other things. 

Thus, yours truly will be back in Malaysia from 27th May till 11th July. Back home, I don't think it'll be easy for me to be online, so the blog will probably go on a semi-hiatus. Will update if connection found.

Everyone please pray for my Grandma, and for our safe flight!

Finally back in Oman

Finally I'm back. YES!! The long hours on the flight wasn't fun, especially when I had three transits, in Newark, France, and Qatar. Dammit, those depressing hours suck the life out of me.

Today, finally went to the doctor to get my cough treated. Got nebulized and now I'm feeling so much better.
