Sleeping Pills-The London Suede



a wonderful evening well spent last night with El Nazir & Heedaya and we even managed to snap some shots earlier before sundown.but even in lowlight situations we went on shooting spree-thanks to the flashlight.and the 2.8 lens aperture.

we did some tiring walk,and stopped at Dallas Chicken & Ribs @POMO for dinner at the patio,overlooking passers by below and for $16.00 twin meal which i shared with Minerva-it was the real deal-and we all can't finished up our food,and as we got up and started walking again,i simply can't hide the bloated tummy.


walking around,i've almost forgotten the saturday folks flooding the city streets,and it's been awhile actually trodding on the pavements again,lugging a heavy bag with my cam in it,my helmet and the occasional bumps onto strangers,and soon after i was sweating again.
so the last stop was at Iluma-we found a cosy place and rest our tired feet-ordered milkshakes and rootbeer float with loud conversations and happy laughters.

reached home minutes to midnite,and thought we could have an early rest,but we were wrong.home had relatives visiting and we all watched that 'everton and arsenal' game to the end,uncles and aunts bid farewell and we could finally lay down on our beds.

and so the other day at work,i cut boards into certain shapes and sizes,



but when i brought home i had to make further amendments,and was quite pleased actually that i could turn flimsy white boards into a lovely picture frame-& with a light too!no ordinary picture frame,i could even stash some secret stuffs (there's a little hidden compartment)and i fabricated it as such that i could hang it on the wall-fun!

Ceremony-Joy Division

Yo!
another wonderful saturday,
glorious sunshine and McD's fabulous Big Breakfast pancakes and cold iced milo, i put on my blue suede Adidas sneakers and head to work on the rattling scooter and midway it started to choke and the engine went dead.twice,during my journey to work.i jumped off the seat,raised up the seat,unscrewed the tank cover and peeped inside the petrol tank,damn it was empty and the blame goes to myself for negligently moving off without checking.a mistake,and it's my first so i hope there won't be a second.ohh.

during lunchbreak,i sneaked out and met up with Akai and due to his tight schedule and travelling back and forth to KL to meet up with his families and relatives,we only managed to hangout once and today was another good excuse for a tea time,as he's leaving back to melbourne again.short sweet conversations over couple cups of tea and i had to withdraw and hope we'll meet up soon.

and on my way back,the unimaginable happened,cruising on the scoot with the wind against my direction and all of a sudden the handle's top plastic cover blown and tilted over towards me.panic stricken,i was trying to calm myself down,stopped by the roadside,and tried to fix it back laughing a bit and heaving long grouchy sighs all at the same time.all the four screws were missing,high chances that it was loosened with all the vibrations the scooter had made.so i got back home and after my prayers went down the workshop to have the screws replaced.

in my room now,awaiting for the perfect time to go out to town with my beloved wife on our lil cranky scoot!

Farewell Akai & Nuras,hope u folks have a safeflight back!
See Ya Guys Soon!

Always-Bon Jovi

it's been wet right at the beginning of first light today,and till now,there're still drips of drizzle outside.

it's not really a good day,the rain part of it and especially when we received a sad tragic news back home,and everybody's emotional and there was this awkward silence occupying us-tensed and sorrows-my other half was in a bad state,hurt her so much drained all her tears till her eyes swell.there's nothing much we can do except to pray hard that nothing else could go wrong,for a good uncle who's very close to the family,who's now at the cold hospital ward,awaiting test samples and the doctor's announcement for the latest progression,results and plans for the next step.

i was warded and underwent surgery numerous times.
there were even times i didn't even notify my parents that i was going to the hospital,only to rang them up when i need them for signatures on documents.
i knew how it felt,being alone,awating for your time,those transfers from bed to stretchers and being trolleyed over to the operating rooms.the glass doors shut and ebok on the other side,waving as balls of tears rolled down her cheek.i wish i didn't looked at her.no,i wish i didn't have to be there and did that all that.that hurts her deep.
and that hurts me still.

Moonlight Sonata-Beethoven

everybody struck with the blues.long,cold slow day,with continuous drizzle throughout.nothing much was done,everybody waiting for everybody for something to ignite but nothing much had happened.so much for the new decade,still everybody in the old mindset.i'm part of it,that's the ironic part,but i don't know if the rest just like me,or maybe i've just went overboard,not focused,not paying attention to what i'm supposed to do,to be?to be..

monday.lazy.wet.dull.restless.

No Diggity-Blackstreet feat Dr Dre

i'm getting the hang of switching the scooter gears and already gaining considerably tempo speeding and squeezing in between vehicles,gauging and watching all vehicles approaching my lil Bella with constant alertness,well due to the nature of it's size,i've to be extra,extra careful since i believe other vehicles especially trucks either can't see me on the scooter or they just don't give a rat's ass,and to play safe i rather stick to my tricks,ensuring that i steer away from any impending danger.

tomorrow-traffic goin' to be busy again especially in the morning-all the kids are goin' back to school,oh i miss that!

i'll just have to go back to work and attend same old monday meeting tomorrow with the fellow colleagues discussing future plans for the new digital decade and in the afternoon we've gotta clear all the past holiday programmes stuffs that we put up,and i bet it's goin' to be a sweaty monday.

went around with Mrs Sam earlier,on the vespa,to the flea market and Chinatown,and i must say it was such a wonderful evening!
