Welcome

A welcome to my mother, who touched down in London 3 days ago. While it's nice to have someone so close and you love be around you, it's also at times, overbearing.

And a cold welcome to the new semester. Thank you for the 9 o'clock class on Mondays. I hate you, new semester. But I've made a resolution to do better on you, so let's continue this love-hate relationship until the end of May.


BTW, I think I might just go home to Malaysia during summer. Loneliness is a crazy bitch, and I'm afraid it might kill me during one of its random rages. But I'm not putting my hopes up, it's just a consideration I'm taking very deeply. Pray for me?

Thank you.


PS: If you are a LOST fan, have you seen the more questions, less answers first episode of season 6? It's annoying, but I want more. And for it to never stop, please. If not, I might have to indulge myself into Fringe just to get my other-worldly escape dosage. Or Supernatural.


PSS: I fall in love with Being Human more every time I watch a new episode as it stays true to its title. PLEASE STOP THE AMERICANISATION PROCESS huhu

February

I watch too many movies because every time I get on the bus and sit alone, I wait for that cute guy to sit next to me, and then we'll strike up a conversation and he'll look at me as if I'm a mad freakazoid or I have chilli stuck between my teeth and then we'll exchange numbers and then he'll call or text and ask me out and then we'd live happily ever after.

Or we'd have to stand next to each other because the bus is full and he's so tall he's gonna smell my hair and suck in the pleasure, and stare at my acne-covered forehead and wonder what it's like to kiss it and then the bus stops and the inertia crashes us together and we'll stare into each other's eyes and he'll forget that he's supposed to get down because he's so absorbed with me and then he'll follow me and hope to see me again and when he does, he'll have his thinking cap ready and it'll be like the situation in paragraph 1.

Or we'd stare into each other, avoiding at times, especially when our eyes met, we'd snicker in silence or turn to our friends or look out the window to pretend we weren't looking at each other and somehow he'll forget he's supposed to get down because he's so absorbed with me and then he made a resolution that the next time we meet, the situation in paragraph 1 will happen.

And that is what goes through my twisted, fantastic, imaginative and lurid mind when I'm in the university bus.

This is real life, and paragraph 1, 2 and 3 will never happen. Not that it matters. But if it does happen, what a story it will be.

Travelogue: Stonehenge, Salisbury

On a cold and windy morning of 25th January, 10 of us went on a trip to one of the wonders of the world -- Stonehenge. They were always a mystery as people try to figure out; what is its function? Some believed it was for astronomical purposes, while some believe it is a shrine or temple of some sort. Whatever it is, I hate to tell you they are just stones in the middle of vast greenery that doesn't surpass your imagination. Expect less, and you won't be disappointed.

However, despite the cold and wind, we had a perfect trip to Salisbury, where we not only went to see the Stonehenge, but also Old Sarum, an old castle ruin of King Henry IV and the Salisbury Cathedral, which did not disappoint. Sadly, there was a no camera rule inside the cathedral, so we just took pictures of the exterior. Furthermore, there was a service going on, so there wasn't much that could be done. Funny thing was, we thought of praying inside there. Well, it was Tazzi actually. But that did not happen. It'd be funny though.

Here are pictures.

Happy Birthday!

Here's a happy 21st birthday wish to a close friend of mine, Nik Nur Hanim Ayuni Baharom. :D

And a belated birthday wish to my dearie Nandini Indiran. Happy 20!

I love you both and I pray for both your success and happiness! :DD
