random ramblings

Last weekend SPTKD held their Freshman orientation camp. So being the gungho type, I sign up and went for the camp. Little did I know, Mif and Hairoul are not coming down. So I was practically without my "kakis". So in other words if a person got no "kaki" what happen? He becomes lame. haha ok lame joke. But seriously I got no one to talk too. Well maybe there are, like Rikki, Rena, Normah, Fizah and etc. But they are not exactly the same wavelength. You know what I mean.

Basically the camp was ok. Well not ok. Kinda disorganize. Well no offence to the organizing committee. The games were fun and good. But breakfast, lunch and dinner was not really plan out properly. Its ok, pretty understandable. Its a new committee and this is somehow their first time organizing a camp. Maybe some may have done it before, some may not. Learn from their mistakes ah. Just make sure the next time I come to your next camp, show some improvements.

The past few days were pretty much the same. Wake up, shower, online or play games, eat, pray, sleep and etc. So ok most of you out there might probably say "HEY GET A LIFE MAN, FIND A JOB OR SOMETHING". Well yeah am meaning too but can't seem to bring myself to do it. hehehe... GOtta face it man I'm just plain lazy.

But havin way too much free time is kinda fun you know, I tend to think a lot. About stuffs. GOOD STUFFS ok. Like what are my plans after NS and where should I further my studies and stuffs like that. Finding a girlfriend. haha well yeah tought of that a couple of times. I dunno man. I mean I have some feelings for an old friend but she's attached to a good friend of mine also. I don't want to be a bastard and break them up. But recently I kind of confess everything to her. Thankfully she's ok with it. I dunno if she told her boyfriend about it but he doesn't seem to show any signs of knowing about it either. As for me? well I have endure seeing her going out getting close to soooo many guys these few years I kinda got use to it. But somehow after confessing to her I can't help feeling jealous over that lucky guy. I try to look away, try to ignore them, tried to talk to other girls just to get her off my mind. It does help, but not for long. Then there's the Giordano girl I mention a few entries ago. She doesn't seem interested so what can I do. I can't force her to like me right. But the funny thing is, If you go out looking for love, they seem to be running away from you. BUt once you stop looking, they seem to be coming looking for you.

A few days ago, I think it was last week. I was on the verge of completely forgetting about those 2 girls I mention above. I hadn't talk, message, msn any of them for quite a while and I'm kinda happy about it too. Then this old fren of mine msg me to do her a favor. Well being a good friend, I complied. So we met up for lunch and talked about old times and stuffs. She even help me with a little grocery shopping which I'm awfully bad at. I'm not the type who goes to the market often so I dunno which leafs and vegetables are which. Somehow that gesture of hers to help me reminded me of why I fell for her years ago. But I quickly reminded myself that she's attached. So just savour what time we have spent together thats all.

The same day at night, was online minding my own business watching Incredible tales. Giordano girl messaged me thru MSN. Was kinda surprise because usually I would be the one messaging her first. We only chatted for like 10 seconds and she said she will call me because its easier. So yeah she called my phone and we chatted for like almost a few hours.

I mean you get what I mean by If you look for love the will run away from you and if you are not looking they come looking for you. Maybe I should do that. Walk around as if I'm not interested. Act as if Im content with being single and all and maybe girls will somehow come knocking at my door. Pretty farfetch I know. But hey its worth a try. haha.

Just got back from TKD training. My back is pretty sore. Have been giving me problems these past few days. Probably not having enough sleep. But who am I kidding man. Wake up around 1 in the afternoon. haha and I'm complaining of not having enough sleep. Anyways, Hairoul is fine now. He's back to his cheerful self. But he's taking it easy. Yo bro keep it up man. I'm always here to back you up if anything happens. Remember that day? We could always go to Al-ameen and talk over "Nasi goreng cina paprik ala thai" or something like that ah, I forgot the name of the dish. Haha.

SOOOOOO.... yeah that's about it I think. I know someone out there is pestering me to update. So here it is. Didnt really think you would read my blog sey. I mean once in awhile I understand. But you seem to be like reading my blog everyday haha. I'm truely honoured ah to have a fan like you. hahahahaha. Want me to like put up like a small corner to thank you for your support or something like that? hahahaha. Like at mcdonalds where they put up a picture of employee of the month. Put ur picture there and below it "Fan of the month" hehe.

Anyway thanks for coming and reading. At least I know there are people out there who care to read..

So good night and take care....

Mummy's day at KL

Last weekend was Mother's day. Mother's all around the world are honoured for their endless self sacrifice for their children and families.

This year we had a little extra for mother's day. We went to Kuala Lumpur. It was oraganise by mum's ustaz(religious teacher) for 3 days and 2 nights starting from Friday morning till Sunday night.

Friday
The coach picked us up in the morning at Jurong East. After going pass customs and all, we had breakfast at Gelang Patah R&R. After which we headdown to the nearest mosque for our friday prayers. After all is done, we headed to our first shopping point at Nilai 3 in Negeri Sembilan. Nilai 3 is a shopping haven. It was kinda like Geylang except that it has more variety of stuffs and its about the size of 20 football fields. Yes it is that big. What i meant about more variety is that it sells everything, anything and all things. Whatever you want you can find it there, you just have to look in the right shop.

After Nilai 3 we head down to KL to check into our hotel. Quality hotel is the name and yes they do measure up to the quality. 4 stars mind you. After settling in, we went to Sogo for dinner. The nearest shopping centre. After dinner was back to the hotel and sleep.

Saturday
Had breakfast at the hotel and yes I had a heavy breakfast. Its been awhile I had hotel food. The first program for the day was a visit to a chocolate boutique. Which sells the strangests chocolate flavours you'll ever hear. Durian flavoured chocolate, sesame seed flavoured chocolate, papaya flavoured and etc. They may not sound as appetizing as they look. but mind you the durian and sesame flavoured chocolate tasted fantastic.

Next up was a short visit to the KLCC twin towers. Took a few pictures and we went shopping in the Suria KLCC shopping centre. The place was somewhat like Takashimaya. All the shops were all the high end branded stuffs like Versace, Gucci, Rolex and Etc. Well being middle income people we could only window shop haha. After that we headed down to Times square. The biggest shopping centre in KL, with an indoor theme park and 2 hotels built into it. The time spent given was only an hour so we didnt have much time to try the rides so we could only watch it from afar. It kinda sucks coz the roller coaster looks tempting.

After times square, we head down to Petaling street where they sell all the imitation stuffs. More like a night market and a place for bargain hunters. Bought a pair of red oakley shades for only 20 ringgit which was about 10 Spore dollars. Cheap huh. Dad bought a liverpool jersey, I wanted a Manchester United long sleeve jersey but the shop owner didnt want to lower the price so we left. Mum bought handbags and Syarah got 2 t-shirts. Putri and Meera didnt find anything they like so they didnt buy anything. After petaling street we went down to Jalan Masjid India, another night market but this time it was more like Geylang. Where they sell lots and lots of cloths. Lots more than in Geylang.

After Masjid Jalan India, we went back to the hotel for dinner. After which we retired back to our rooms. That night was the FA cup final between Liverpool and West Ham. Dad and I we pumped up for action but unfortunately, the TV only offers ESPN. The live coverage was being shown on Star Sports. Dad was pretty upsets but what can we do. But sleep and wait for the results in the morning.

Sunday
Had breakfast again in the hotel. Good news liverpool won by penalties. Dad as estatic. But we heard West Ham gave a good fight. Oh and did I mention Dad wore his liverpool jersey. haha. After breakfast we checked out of the hotel and had a pit stop at Putrajaya. Where the prime minister's office is. Took a lot of pictures there coz the view was fantastic. Oh and yes I bought mum a bag here. My mummy's day present for her. After putrajaya we visited a bee museum in Malacca. It was cool. I didnt know there were so many different kinds of bees around the world. Putri was a little scared coz ever since that episode with a bee a last year. She got stung and that was it, she hate bees for life. haha. After the bee museum we went to Mahkota parade for a little shopping before heading to the Mahkota hotel for the Mother's day high tea.

The high tea was pretty boring. It wasn't really oraganise and the food wasn't that nice either. Nothing much to report here. After the high tea, we were homeward bound. Stopped by Gelang patah R&R again for a mandatory rest period. Had a light dinner then off we were back to Singapore.

We had fun. Most importantly, Mum enjoyed herself the most. Its been awhile since I've been to KL. The place was still the same as i imagine well maybe the traffic condition kinda gotten worst. Motorcycles beating the red light left, right, center. Remind me never to drive in malaysia. Unless its an emergency. But other that that the place is ok. Singapore is still better haha.

Olrite thats it for my adventure in KL. Oh stay tune for updates about the pictures will upload them in multiply soon. ciao then

Same Shit Different Day

Was woken up rudely today by the banglahs doing some construction work outside. Woke up pretty early, it didnt help that I couldn't sleep last night. Why would something like you happen to me? Had a loooooong chat with Hairoul last night till the wee wee hours in the morning. He's having some problems just like yours truely. He can't get "Hamron" outta his mind and I can't get *!@#$% outta mine.

Back to this morning. Woke up pretty early. Mum went out shopping with my aunt. No food at home. What does Syafiq do to survive? He cooks. Yes true believers, Syafiq can cook. With the help from some cookbook, Syafiq cooked up a storm. Made Shepherd's Pie. Looked around for the ingredients.

Potatoes...... checked
Minced meat... checked
Milk.......... checked
Tomato sauce.. checked
Onion......... checked
Pepper........ checked
Sugar......... checked
butter........ checked
milk.......... checked
mixed veggies. Damn don't have

nvm its not like you'll die without veggies right. My sis is gonna be happy about this. She don't go well with veggies. So yeah took me more or less about 2 hours to make it haha. Is that fast? or slow? well nvm.

The verdict............. It was GOOD. Im bloody serious. It was bloody nice. Not bad for a first timer. Well maybe except the meat was still a bit hard. Mum said to cooked it a little longer next time. Nvm at least I did learn something today.

Took a little nap then played a little xbox and surf the net, then watched American idol, had dinner and now here i am blogging & listening to music.

I guess that it for today. off to play some online games.....

Oh yeah before I go, this weekend FRiday, saturday and sunday i wont we in town. Going for a short holiday with the family to Kuala lumpur for some high tea or something to celebrate mother's day. Was organise by my mum's religious teacher. So mostly there will be lots and lots of makciks and pakciks going hopefully they bring along their daughters haha. Cheeky Syafiq....... So if you were to sms or call me within these 3 days and i didnt reply, SORRY my phone doesn't have auto-roaming. So bear with it I'll be back Sunday night so dont worry.... ciao

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Each morning I get up, I die a little. Can barely stand on my own two feet.
I Take a look in the mirror and I cry
"God what you're doing to me?"
"I have spent all my years in believing you, but I just can't get no relief"

I work hard every day of my life, I work till I ache my bones.
At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own.
I get down on my knees and I start to pray.
Till the tears run down from my eyes
God, Can anybody find me - somebody to love?

Everyday I try and I try and I try. But everybody seems to want to put me down.
They say I'm goin' crazy, They say I got a lot of water in my brain, Got no common sense. I've got nobody left to believe.

I Got no feel, I got no rhythm, I just keep losing my beat
But its ok, I'm alright. I Ain't gonna face no defeat. I just gotta get out of this prison cell, Someday I'm gonna be free.

Find me somebody to love please
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Bat out of hell

I was like a bat out of hell today,
I was like Spiderman, when he failed to save Gwen Stacy,
I was like Superman being shown kryptonite into your face by Lois Lane,
I was angry, frustrated, sadden, shocked all rolled into one,
I was in pain, suffering.
I don't have a clue what Im writing down.

I need a love that grows
I don't want it unless I know
With each passing hour
Someone somehow
Will be there
Ready to share


A song by Steve Perry the lead singer from the Band JOURNEY. I guess this song pretty sums up wat im feeling now,

"Foolish Heart"

I need a love that's strong
I'm so tired of being alone
But will my lonely heart
Play the part
Of the fool again
Before I begin

Foolish heart
Hear me callin'
Stop before
You start fallin'
Foolish heart
Heed my warnin'
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong anymore

Feelin' that feelin' again
I'm playin' a game I can't win
Love's knockin' on the door
Of my heart once more
Think I'll let her in
Before I begin

Foolish Heart
Hear me callin'
Stop before
You start fallin'
Foolish heart
Heed my warnin'
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong anymore
Foolish heart

Foolish, foolish heart
You've been wrong before

Foolish heart
Hear me callin'
Stop before
You start fallin'
Foolish heart
Heed my warnin'
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong anymore
Foolish heart

Oh foolish, foolish heart
You've been wrong before

Foolish, foolish heart
Foolish heart

Cant think of a title

Thursday 4th May 2006

Met up with an Old friend at Bugis. Had lunch, Caught Mission Impossible 3, which was kinda good. There were definately more stunts than MI1 and MI2 put together, even the twist at the end of the show was worth the 2 hours. After the movie, we head down to esplanade to catch up on old times. From the good old NCC days to now and the future. Poor guy, was dump by his girlfren of 4 years. Well bro if ur reading this, once again i tell you its her lost not yours. I'm having my fair share of problems too and no I wasn't dump too.

Walked around and ended up outside Wisma sat outside a small bar listening to the live band play. Left about 10plus.

Friday 5th May 2006

NOthin much today, went for friday prayers, then went for TKD trainin. Mif and HAiroul not around, pretty pissed off but its ok. Lead the class for warm up. After which I did my own training with Edmund. Then had to teach Ding-na her pattern. Nothin interesting really. Except that I was wondering how she would react to me after what I told her Tuesday night. Nothing's change thank god. Except I was the one who was actually avoiding eye contact at first, just tryin to analyze the situation from afar before actually engaging the subject. So yeah she seems fine, maybe because her bf was there. Oh and yes her bf doesnt seem to show and knowledge of tuesday night so i guess he doesnt know. Its better that way I guess. Nobody knows. Dont want to ruin the beautiful friendship we shared all those years.

Told a few trustworthy friends about my situation, mostly gave me good advises. Thanks guys appreciate it.

Before I go, here's a random quote I found on the net. Just like to share it with my readers

"Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love."
Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Northanger Abbey
