I used to hide away
If we could light up every street with our cellular phones, then maybe we can save ourselves or maybe we won't. But it doesn't even matter if we got no plan, as long as you're holding on to somebody's hand.

And only try to save myself
i expect to pass through this world but once.
any good, therefore, that i can do
or any kindness i can show to any fellow creature,
let me do it now.
let me not defer or neglect it
for I shall not pass this way again.

Title: syurga cinta.
Date/Time: Sunday, August 30, 2009 // 10:24 PM

syurga cinta has made me feel so much emotion deep within.


i feel angry. at irham for being such a jerk. takde pendirian, care sangat about what his friends say/think about him. -.-
i feel like cubit cubit si aqmal tu. he is so cute.
i feel ashamed. my ilm and manners are not as refined as syuhadah's.
i feel proud. to be a muslim and realise how beatiful the religion is.
i feel scared. like irham, i'm afraid of Allah's wrath.
i feel inspired. to be the best muslimah i could possibly be.


for sure, a movie worth watching.
aqmal is definitely half the reason. haha. the cutest child star in m'sia - as far as i can remember at least. heh. X)

Title: something this trivial.

i have been wanting to change my blogskins since months ago.
there was this one night, i stayed up all the way till 2am just to look for a suitable one.
and i was suppose to wake up early in the morning the next day...like for work?


crazy right?
and just yesterday i was asking eliza for her opinion.
i still cant decide! seriously.
but come on sey, it's just a blogskin, right?
hahah.
but to me, it's a big deal.
it feels as though i am moving house.
you know what i mean? probably not.


hahaha.
i am attached to this blogskin ald.
and it's difficult for me to change it.
loyal to a blogskin. -.-
hahah.


i guess until i feel like i have grown out of a phase (whatever phase it may be), then i'll change it.
it's not just a blogskin after all.
i'm funny like that.
hoho.

.
.
.

another trivial issue,
i'm having bandung fever.
cos almost every buka, i would wanna drink bandung.
'pakai baju pon macam bandung'
i cant help that i love bandung!


on a not so trivial matter,
i'm not sure if i'm looking forward to Syawal.
hmmm.
i mean i love that it'll be Syawal and i get to kunjung mengunjung everyone i've not seen for very long and all that.
but... it's gonna be a loooooooooooooooong 3 weeks. sigh sigh sigh.
i wonder what oleh-oleh i will get.
HAHAAHAHA,tak malu >.<

Title: beredarnya aku dari kejahilan.
Date/Time: Saturday, August 22, 2009 // 2:19 PM

something triggered me to write the piece below.
it may not be great, but it's something i've written from the bottom of my heart.


"sekarang aku dibawa
ombak duniawi,
sekarang aku dihanyuti
gelora hayalan diri.


sungguh jahil
sungguh jahil
aku termakan bisikan syaitan
aku tergoda, menjadikan iblis sebagai teman.
sungguh jahil
sungguh jahil


jawaplah aku pertanyaan
Tuhan ku di akhirat kelak,
'apa telah engkau lakukan, dimasa hayatmu di bumi?
apa telah engkau lakukan, sebagai khalifah di bumi?'


apa yang akan ku katakan?
malu,membisu dan segan.
kerana aku telah hidup tanpa arah.
telahkah aku menggunakan masaku sebaik mungkin?
melakukan ibadah dan berjuang atas namaNya?


sungguh jahil
sungguh jahil


namun aku tahu aku ingin berubah,
namun aku tahu aku bersalah.


Tuhan maha Pengasih
Tuhan maha Pemurah
Tuhan maha Pengampun


aku jahil di masa lalu
aku jahil di masa lalu
namun aku tahu aku ingin berubah
kerana aku tahu aku bersalah.


dibulan Ramadhan penuh barakah
itulah langkah pertama
untuk mendekati Allah dan Jannah
yang kekal buat selama-lamanya."



apart from the annual family tradition,
i'd like to start something new for myself this Ramadhan.
i'm gonna start reading as many Islamic related books as i can.
and i'm gonna start it off with the b'day present i got from sai.
hee. :)

*can't upload pictures! sigh..

'The Messenger - The Meanings of the Life of Muhammad' by Tariq Ramadan.
even the name of the author fits the month.
haha. sungguh cool and coincidental. or was that fate? :b

Ramadhan Kareem everyone. :)

"you gotta dance like nobody's watching,
dream like you will live forever.
live like you're going to die tomorrow,
and love like it's never going to hurt."



"it's madness -
to hate all roses; because you got scratched by one thorn.
to give up all your dreams; because one did not come true.
to lose faith in prayers; because one was not answered.

to give up on your efforts; because one of them failed.
to condemn all your friends; because one of them betrayed.
not to believe in love; because someone was unfaithful.

remember that, another chance may come up.
a new friend, a new love, a new life.

never give up on anything.

source


inspiration doesn't come easy.
you have to work for it.
to be an inspiring character and person, that's another story all together.
just like everything else in this life.
we gotta work for it.
and like everything else, it comes from the One above.

dear God, i pray to inspire and be inspired.
insyaAllah. :)

it all started with the time my besties and i was having our annual chalet. we were walking around ehub and ended up at some kiddy playground thingymajig.
you know, the hunomous playground where parents would leave their children in so they can go shopping. haha.


have always wanted to get into one of those when i was younger.
what could possible be more fun to a 7 year old, than a pool of balls, seriously? sighhh, unfulfilled childhood dreams.


so anyways, back to my crazy-for-baby-giraffe-phase.
i remember the plushie looking something like the one below. so freaking adorable! gosh, this would be a great addition to my ever expanding plushie collection my grandmother always stash in a red plastic bag when she sleeps over. heh.




so then i decided to go look for actually living giraffe. those who knows me long enough would know how crazy i am about nature and the animals. heh. :) oh, and spongebob.












this one below is seriously my personal favourite. haha, muka slumber je. heh. XD
