Understanding

Perfectly fits.
Destined.
Sometimes it takes time just to grasp the idea.
I know I do.
However,
a few brief moments change everything.
It's like a catalyst.
It speeds things up.
I understand. I get the idea.
It's not rocket science.
But even science sometimes fails to describe what human feels.
It's time to let some things go.
For good now.
It's a choice we people make.
I make.
It's not giving up.
It is called understanding.

At One Point....Virus

What's the point of writing when the only inspiration you have has gone, and for all you know, it will never come back? The inspiration is like gas, it will allow a car to move, and without it, the car won't. I know it's not a perfect metaphor, but picture just think about it. What if you saw something, some idea, that could have been yours, but then someone raise his hand in class, tell the whole class about the idea, and you felt rather upset. That could have been yours to tell. What do you feel? And what about just leaving things behind? Let it bury in piles of memories, never to be recalled, and remembered. But somehow, a virus came creeping up in the system and keep re-running those specific memories over and over again that is so out of your hands, that your mind can't even control. Or should I say, your mind can never control it. There's no anti-virus to it. No antibiotic, no insulin, no pills, no nothing. It nags you in your sleep, and while you ate you can feel it distantly. Out of sight, but distant.

Memories in our head, are not like those files we can save and delete whenever we want. As much as we want to forget, the more permanent it became. And the harder you try to remember, you can't even connect a single thread, you can't solve a single puzzle. Funny how things work sometimes. But all you have to do is smile about it, pretend it never happen. Problem solve? No. It's like eating painkillers. The pain is there, you just don't feel it. Not yet. but when the effects are gone, it came creeping back on you. What do you do? Take another one? That's just a pathetic way to destroy life. Keep pretending things didn't happen as it is, it will ruin you from the inside. it's like pumping air into a flat tire, forcing the air into it, but even when it's already full, you just keep filling in, it gets bigger and bigger and it blows. Overblown. Overfilled. Overload. Whatever it is you name it. Same goes with human. One day you say it's okay, it's fine, but the next day, you can't stand it even for a second.

Human, technically are complicated. You have all this systems, goes all over your body, I studied a bit of biology a few years back I think I pretty much know the complexity of a human body. But what even more complicated than that is their minds and feelings, in which, if we're not a psychic or a douche-bag who pretends to know or to care, we can never penetrate that thick, invisible barrier. You can look happy but inside you're torn in pieces. You can cry, but really, you are happy to receive all the sympathetic looks people gave you, and the 'are you okay's, and 'how are you doing's. Human can be so pretentious. I did that too, if I'm bored. But most of the time I am like a safe-lock.

I don't know why I'm writing this, but I guess I'm pretty much overload of all the data. In just a few days, I'm already overcapacity. My head couldn't handle a single file. Too big. Viral. It keeps playing in my mind and never letting go. What to do? Let's just transfer a bit of virus in here. If it spreads, my bad.

Taaruf

Phew, done with landscape taaruf day. alhamdulillah. although there are some things didn't go as planned, but nevertheless, I personally think it turned out quite ok. I have fun, I think most of us have fun, and we definitely get along fine, so it's a success right? It's taaruf days anyway, and it is for us to bond, landscape students' style. :D

I think the most memorable activity would be the night walk. I think I understand a little bit about being blind. And if I found it hard to walk in dark(I'm night blind) even with your eyes wide open, picture all the blind people in the world and how they cope with their lives?

And this morning we had jungle trekking. Nice. we went to the waterfall, and since the girls got to play there(and they need privacy from guys too), so we went somewhere else, where the water is deep enough for us to do cannonball(if we like, which I don't). What a walk. I'm pretty much tired. I needed sleep.

Fight For Or Go With The Flow

Decisions. Most of the time in life we've got to make decisions. Some are important, some might not be. Some can save lives, some can change the lives of many others, some can lead to good things, while some others pull us nearer to Hell. What do you think, what do you have in mind when comes to making decision? What are the options? Are always options be like; 'you can be happy, but then you'll die', and it's pair, 'you can live, but you'll never be happy'. And if the option like 'you can be happy, and live' happens, then 'you'll never be happy, and you'll die' also exist.

I must say this have everything to do with my life, where most of the times I need to make decisions, but I didn't because instead of options, I only wanted to see one option; that is NO option. And yes, I didn't hate being given many options, it's just that I didn't like dealing with so many possibilities with different outcomes. I just watched Eclipse, and it's her decision to pick Edward over Jacob. And it's her decision too, wanting to become a vampire. And as in me, I never wanted to win her back. I never fight back. The options I see was 'I fight I lose' and 'I didn't fight I lose'. I guess I knew the outcomes, and picking the easy way out is just the way I am. Do I feel like wanting to fight? I do. I really do. But what for? I might as well live with what I choose to do, and just go with the flow. Let the world run its course. I do that instead. It's fine now anyway. I just have the thought the write about after Eclipse! :D

p/s-I think it's pretty good despite the fact that my friends said it's boring. :D

The Commencement

I am happy to be back here in IIUM. I'm so happy to meet my friends and the lecturers, and I am eager to learn. As always, new resolutions for this semester--whether I can achieve what I want or stumbled down the road, it's really is up to me now. Current CGPA is not very good, so I really really need to get back on track, do the best I can do especially in design class(since it carries the highest credit hours), at least B+ this semester(well of course I would want to achieve higher than that, but I want to be humble OK?hahaha). I think with new awesome lecturers(previous year's lecturers are always awesome btw :DDD so no offence!), I'm really hoping(and targeting) for good grades. :D

My room is good, I got a big room for myself(suppose there is another one, but he slept in other room in other block, so, thinking the room belongs to myself is nothing offensive I guess :D). And it look rather livable compared to the first time I stepped in there(I rather not describe it to you :DDD).

So, here I am, back in IIUM. And to other IIUMians(Gombak campus especially, new and old students :D), welcome and welcome back! Enjoy your stay here and learn as much as you can!

Books And Temptations

Temptations!!!
We're easily tempted.Because human have desires, built-in.
Sometimes we didn't know.
I was tested yesterday.
Not with the flashing fashions, or glorious food
But those books...they stare at you from the shelves
Calling you silently.
And as if you're being spelled, you're drawn nearer and nearer.
You touch them.Fresh and new.
You said, "This is it, I'm going to buy only this book".
But then the books at the back shelves whispered,
"I'm going to be a good company in your flight".
And you end up at the counter giving bigger bucks than you should have.


p/s-this is, again, is a monologue. I bought to books yesterday, originally just 'The Kite Runner', but then I stumbled upon something interesting by Stephenie Meyer, called 'The Short Second Life Of Bree Tanner-an eclipse novella'. How can you resist?

Leaving This Town

There's nothing much to say
But a few goodbyes
To the cattle
To the kittens
To the ducklings
To the people left in this town
Long time it may seems
But when I come back
The cattle are all full-grown
The kittens turn into nice fat cats
The ducklings grow beautiful feathers
To the people who says welcome back
Leaving is not always a parting
Leaving is not always a seclusion
Leaving is not always a hiding
Leaving is a time for appreciating what we have
Thus we say 'I miss you'
There you go folks!
I promise I will return. :D

p/s-this is not a poem.this is a monologue.LOL!

P At Last

Wow, it's been quite a while, again, for me to write again, and there's so much that has been happening in the intervals. This holiday has been not much of an accomplishment of anything to my opinion until I finally got my driving license yesterday, which I think is the big highlights of the whole three months vacation. I actually feel really good about it, not to the fact that now I can drive on road legally, but for the fact that I've actually accomplish one thing I wanted the most. And you do realize that many times happy things leads to another happy things-it's like a chain of happy moments.

So you know I'm in a very good mood, my dad is taking the whole family out for dinner tonight to celebrate me~LOL!! And I got new shoes as a present I would say, I feel really really good. I won't write long for now, but I will soon. It's only two weeks before my break ends and I'll be coming back for new semester after that, and I'm sure I got loads to tell. :DDD

Sharing Is Caring :)
