justice

Just now I chanced upon a piece in the newspaper highlighting some concerns about the bad behaviour of poly students. For that I felt justified. Even if it is because of smoking or littering or whatnot. For once the society has open their eyes to a new perspective. Not that I'm being judgmental, I feel that ITE students has been put under the microscope for quite some time now and four out five chances out in the news are that of ITE students behaving inappropriately. I know someday, God's willing, I will place myself in poly. Therefore, I am not saying this because I am an ITE student. Yes I am partially standing up for some of my rights but isn't it time that the society light up against us ITE students. Just because they are in poly doesn't mean that they are perks of the society. We are not so different after all. It's not valid enough to say that because we are in uniform and they are not, and it makes it easier for us be identified. School is school, we learn practically the same things in school. We learn the same basic etiquettes and manners in school, it's a matter of how a person carry themselves. When we are carving our career in the future, what makes us or breaks us is not the fact that we are in uniform, it's how we carry ourselves as a person. Unless you need me to remind you the incident of those poly students who are dumb enough to post their nude photos online for the world to see. Maybe it's time the society should stop being double standard and assume that ITE students are forever rotten apples. To each his own and this is my opinion.

respect my privacy
October 21, 2010 @ 11:06 PM

I am a very petty person and I am not afraid to admit that. I am very particular about a lot of things and privacy is one of the things. Recently, I have just moved to my aunt's place, because my parents decided to make a not so clever decision. Anyway, I won't talk about that and back to my point. With moving comes packing and then unpacking, knowing me and the type of person I am, I have a lot of things that I would like to keep and like to hopefully keep it private. But because of the move and the fact that I have to stay at  my aunt's place until god knows when, I need to find a space for my stuff. The thing is my aunt has five children and three of which are still very young. With that, it is no surprise that their curiosity will lead from one thing to another. The point is, it is impossible to keep my private things private without having the kids meddling with my stuffs. Not only that, it is merely impossible to have a private moment on my own without having anyone invading. For god's sake, I can;t even find a room to talk on the phone with H. It gets a tad frustrating because I'm so used to having my own space where I can just throw my things anywhere and not have anyone picking it up next, fiddling with it and ending up ruining it or talk to H or anyone at all on the phone without feeling inferior or whatnot or just have a quiet space to think and write. I have not been updating my diary much these days because of the obvious. Oh well, I guess I have to start getting used to this things. But then again, I don't want to.

the final lap
October 20, 2010 @ 9:09 PM

School has already started. It is already the second week now. I know, I should have updated about it earlier but I am doing it now aren't I?
So the time table this term is not so bad but I really felt that it is not necessary at all. The week goes on and on like a routine and I feel like I'm standing on a conveyor belt passing by the same old scene everyday in school. The modules this term are not so much of a killer and we are practically breezing through school one day after another. But I have a feeling, some where in the mid term, things will get a little hectic presumably because on the project management module. Yes, a module based solely on doing  project. The good thing about this term though is, we have no final exam. No more days of mugging, perhaps a little procrastinating, and no more burning the midnight oil to study for exams. This is the final lap so let's enjoy it while it last.

one more time
October 11, 2010 @ 11:24 PM

I know I'm going to sound like a broken record or probably not. Who cares. Like I said, lately I've been going back and forth to a place I hate to go, a space in a little corner of my head. I hate going there but it seems like I have no control over it anymore because believe me, I used to once before. I guess all that has happened has made a huge impact on my life.

Too much is going on in my head and it seems like I don't even know who I am anymore. Who I am today seems so fake. I have put a front for so long, I think it has became a mask of my own. I have even lost track of when I am being genuine and when I'm just putting up a front. I hate who I have become. I want to be how I used to be. I want to feel light again. I'm trying my best to hold back my tears as I am typing this. I know I should not but it saddens me whenever I think about the past and how it used to be. It was so much simpler then, everything was easily falling into place and even if it get out of line, I can easily find my way back. But now, if things go out of line, I hardly bother to even try bringing it in. Again, sounding like a broken record, I'm tired of being disappointed. I'm tired of expecting on things that eventually brings me down. I'm tired of hoping on things that might never happen. I'm tired of dealing with the what if(s) and what might have been(s).

Honestly, I'm really really tired. I cry myself to sleep most of the time. I may not look like it because I thought it would be easier to just be happy or at least try to. It would be easier wouldn't it? When I don't have to keep explaining to anyone or even myself. I'm not asking for much,really. Then again it would I would not even know where to begin. If only you could read my mind and the things that goes around in my head, you'd be sorry.

We can't please everyone and I'm tired of trying to please them. It's not like they ever stop for a while to please me anyway. One after another. I'm tired of trying to leave up to their expectations. I'm tired of them not giving me a chance and hearing me out. I'm frustrated by the way they always think their choice is better. I'm annoyed by the way they simply think choices and my decisions are not even as important.

for a friend
October 9, 2010 @ 1:56 PM

I've been meaning do up this post for quite some time now. I guess the time is now. Since you did a very very sweet post for me (assumingly) hehe, I shall do the same. I know you are going through a hard time now and it does not seem to suffice having me to keep telling you to be patient and that Allah has got a bigger plan for you. I want you to know that I'm always here for you and for any one of you who needs a listening ear. There may not be much things that I could do to help you to make it easier but I'm always willing to listen and I hope it helps to lift up a little weight off your chest. Don't worry about me getting sick and tired of listening to your sorrows, it's the least I can do. I will always be here to hear you out.

results
October 7, 2010 @ 1:21 PM


This morning, every hour, I keep receiving text messages telling/updating me about the exam results. While I on the other hand, just wanted to go back to sleep and delay the time for me to wake and take a look at my results. Unfortunately, I could not got back to sleep. So the moment I woke up, I grabbed the laptop and hurried to get access to the school website. While doing so, my heart was racing so fast it felt like it was going to jump out of my living body.

So the moment I got accessed to the website, I got more and more frantic because it was so bloody complicated to view my grades. And when I laid my eyes, the results, I literally have to take another deep breathe. I cannot believe what I was seeing, in a good way. It was really satisfying and it was way way better than what I was expecting. With results like that, it made it clear to me what my next step is. However, it saddens me with what mama said to me. I needed a little more support than that. What she said made me cry, just because it seems like she does not even supports me. But I'm thankful enough to have H telling me that I did good and that he would help me in any way he could.

Therefore, I am going to apply for poly. I will see what my chances are. And I would like to congratulate my girls for doing so well and the class for the excellent grades all together. We are truly the best class, in my eyes that is.

19 in 19
October 4, 2010 @ 10:53 PM

In 19 more days, I will turn 19. Unfortunately, I am not that excited for it. I don't even know what I want for my birthday. I guess that is why. I told H about it and he told me that he knows how to get me excited and that he has a surprise for me. I got a little excited over that. I'm trying to count down to see if I will eventually look forward to it.

All my birthday celebrations are a little predictable, I guess this year I want things to be different. For the past few years, I've somewhat spent my birthdays in the same sequence. My family would probably get me a cake and we would celebrate it when midnight strikes. My friends would probably arrange some surprise in school. I might meet up with the gang, depending on their availability and I would spent most of it with H. I mean, I look forward to every surprise they have up their sleeves for me. Its what makes it really enjoyable. But I somehow want something different this year. I still want my time with H just him and I, and I want to spend it with most of my friends. Sigh, I don't know. I don't know what I want.

I guess the need to be in control all the time is really not doing me much good. I'm not exactly one who favors surprises. Truth is I fear them because one I have no control over them but this year, I am hoping for a whole lot of surprises. Its not that much to ask for right?

once in a while
October 3, 2010 @ 10:53 PM

Since I'm waiting for Keeping Up With The Kardashian to finish loading, I shall do  quick update on the night I met my favourite girls, Nowreen and Kak Desi. Well, Show joined us because he managed to finish work early.

We had a sort of impromptu idea to have a girls day out after so long. I think the last time we had that was two months ago. Hence, we decided we should meet and have manicures and pedicures. It was really fun as always. Laughing over jokes that might not even come out funny or even laughing at each other. They are the best I will ever have. It is always a pleasure enjoying each other's company. Anyway, after the mani-pedi, we went for dinner at Wendy's. It was my first time at Wendy's and honestly, the food there was good. Very nice. We headed home after that. It was short but it was indeed fun.

Next meet up, I want to make sure that the whole gang of six is there. Don't even let me get started on how long has it been since the six of us hung out together.

sixty-eight
2:00 AM

My first post for October and it will be dedicated to the none other. I honestly do not know where to start this time round. And I actually forgot about it, usually when the clock strikes 12, I will be the first one to wish H even though H does not usually reply me. Another disappointment. So anyway, let's just try and we'll see how honesty and a dry page leads us.

H and I fight a lot, and I mean a lot. We could even fight over the smallest thing, like, a watch or a mumble. And we fight hardcore, I do not mean that he is abusive la. We would each keep quiet and be in our own spaces until one of us cools down. We don't usually kiss and make up like others do. Once we've each cooled down, we'll just talk like nothing ever happens. That is if we are arguing over trivial things. It's a different story if we are breaking each others hearts. That could lead to days or weeks of alone time.

Sometimes I wonder how we even managed to make this work all these years. Especially with us both being really sarcastic most of the time. I guess to get where H and I are right now, you need buckets of patience, a notebook, sense of humor and a whole lot of love.

It has been some journey H and even though sometimes I feel like choking you, I know you're trying hard.

Forever & Always
