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.

From falling in love
Learning the best way to navigate through life while stepping on the least number of toes.
"Anybody who takes himself too seriously always runs the risk of looking ridiculous; anyone who can consistently laugh at himself does not." --Vaclav Havel.
So go ahead and chuckle a little.
Afraid to walk the streets alone
love means to commit oneself without guarantee,
to give oneself completely in the hope that
your love will produce love in the loved person.
love is an act of faith,
and whoever is of little faith is also of little love.
-- erich fromm
Waiting for something
falling in love with someone
isn't always going to be easy.
anger, tears, laughter..
it's when you want to be together despite it all.
that's when you truly love another.
i'm sure of it.
-- author unknown
yet again, i'm reminded of how everything happens only with the will of God. no matter how well you plan something, if it's meant to crumble, it will crumble. no wind, no storm, if it's not meant to be, it will lose form. forget about planning your butt off. forget about attempting to cover all the bases.
i guess we'll just have to put in more effort next time. insyaAllah.
regardless, happy birthday to my dearest mama, the closest person to me. <3 and to one of the longest bestest friend i've had since 9years ago, happy birthday kiddo. :)

According to Eastern traditions of philosophy, love for an individual can translate into a universal love for all mankind and a higher love for God. While, lust can only translate into further depravity. While love leads to spirituality, lust leads to materialism. While love is an evolutionary positive force, lust is a destructive negative force.
If I attempt something and fail, at least I have the satisfaction of knowing that I tried. If I let the fear of succeeding hold me back from even trying—I'm creating a box or more like a prison for myself. I believe that it's often a fear of success not a fear of failure that keeps us from moving outside of our comfort zone. Success requires that hat we step out of what we know to go into the unknown that we give up unhealthy relationships and habits that keep us from moving forward. Success demands that we give up the excuses that we use as crutches. And success also asks that we are daring enough to be who we are regardless of how others respond to us, facing the haters who want to see us fail.
Are you afraid of your own success? Bright women settle for mediocrity, buckling under the fear of both success and failure. Regardless of what's causing the fear you will never move forward until you stop agreeing with it and start over-ruling it. Brilliant women acknowledge the fear and keep moving forward.

a husband who's been married to his wife for 17 years have never said 'i love you' to his wife. but he'll call her ever single day at 12.30pm sharp, all these years - just to find out how her day's going. and today, he called his wife through ria radioshow to tell her (and the whole world) how much he loves her.
he was crying. she was crying. it was a crying fest!
*sigh. best nyer. and just yesterday, i found out affein stood outside his fiance's house, waiting under the kitchen window in the rain, with rroses in his hands. my brother, really?! hahaha.
i was gonna put on my headphones. then it totally ricochet off my laptop and hit my lips. now my upper lip is swollen. it was bleeding a teeny bit just now. nice. bibir dah seakan-akan anita serawak and angelina jolie.

clearly that child is screaming for help. clearly that child is reaching out to you. clearly he's begging you to relief him from the pain he's in.
that day he came back. that day he stayed. that day he opened up. you could see the pain and emptiness in his eyes. the attention and love he so clearly longs for. the tears that almost trickled.
how hard a young tender soul had. how do you save a child..?
all you know is your head is saying stay out but your heart is pulling you in. he's presented to you for a reason.
the internet is very evil. while attempting to study, i always find the urge to surf the net.
i know i have mentioned more than once that i am not good with anatomical terms. it's not easy to remember/memorise words that have no logic (at least to me) or meaning. since most of them are in greek or latin.
and it's funny how the school tries to make us 'feel' better. they have a paragraph in the lecture notes dedicated for people like me.
'the large number of terms is often difficult... ...even more confusing... ...there is no help for this... ...deal with it...'
i swear those exact words are in the paragraph!
on a random note, my tutee's PSLE maths is on thursday, I AM SO FREAKING NERVOUS FOR HIM. *prays hard. he's got potential. like most boys his age, he's just mischiveous and lazy. heh.

some things happened to me today. come to think of it, it's quite funny, but a little lot frustrating.
it's one of those nights i wish you were a phonecall away.
azwa is as adorable as always. tatak nulul she calls me. and whenever she wants to kacau anyone or even thinking it, she'll make this EXTREMELY cute nak mampos cheeky-evil action that drives me crazy! it's like those cartoon evil scientist thinking of an evil plan kinda action. GERAM! macam nak squeeze squeeze je budak kecik ni! the picture below is not it though. haha.
and then there's mamat.
he's the one in orange, on the left. he is just as adorable!!
mamat: mamat ade kucing. me: oooo, mamat ada banyak kucing eh? ade how much, 10? mamat: errr, tak.. tak. nannn... nanti ibu marah. me: ohh tak boleh ade banyak banyak eh? mamat: a ah. nanti ibu marah, ibu tak kasi. me: then mamat ade berape cat? mamat: mamat ade one aje la. *muke confident
he got distracted after awhile watching the home video
HAHAHAHAHA. now i dont know whether he really has a cat! :b
. . .
then there was another time, he was on a (chair turn) motorcycle. mamat: bye! bye! kite nak jalan! me: ok bye! mamat nak gi mane tu? mamat: errr mammmm mammmat nak pegi pasar. me: pegi pasar? pegi pasar nak beli ape? mamat: nak beli makanan la!
well of course. why didn't i think of that? no one goes to the pasar for a swim. doinks!
i've just checked my human bio II's results. not very happy with them.
i have to do better for this module. i just have to. i will not disappoint. not my parents, not my lecturers, not my tutor, and especially not myself.
