Nur Faikah Dayana

Congrats to Kak Sumi for the birth of her first child, a Nur Faikah Dayana.

Glam Momma has indeed become a real mom. Wow.

At 3.472kg and 51cm long, she is no small feat. She's also the cutest little thing I've seen in a long time. I'm sure she'll grow up to be a fine young lady, just like Kak Sumi and Abang Hakim. Congrats People.

I do not have a pic of her, but rest assured, that I will put it up once I have it in my possession.

As I was waiting for the bus home, this thought came to mind: Life is a series of Random Occurences.

Is it really? I suppose that there is only so much in life that we can plan for, to complete school, to get attached, to get married, to have kids, and other what-have-yous. But it's the other random occurences, like a kiss or a hug, or winning the lottery or getting beaten up, or making someone's day, that makes life all the more meaningful and memorable.

Life is not always happy. It is not always sad either. Today, I witnessed the birth of a new life, one of the many thousands born to this world today. Some will only survive their first day, but only a fraction will survive beyond their first year. For as much as possible, we should make the lives of the people around us happy.

Today, I saw a 78-year-old man cry. He shed tears of joy, upon seeing the birth of his latest grandchild. He also shared with me a sad story, about how he last his wife, a day before the wedding of one of his children. Can you imagine his feelings, as he was mourning during his son's wedding, supposedly one of the happier moments of his life, and he had to cope with the death of his loved one?

I can't either.

Random events make life more pleasing. It makes every single day different. Ever caught 'Groundhog Day'? It's about this guy, who had to repeat the same day, over and over again, until he did good deeds all day, before the next day would come. He would wake up at the same time, and do the same things, but every day was different, because of the random things that happenned. I can't remember who produced or directed it, but if I can remember correctly, it's a Disney movie.

Randomness - A boon or a bane? You decide.

Scatter-brain.

It's been too long since I last blogged. I've been too happy to blog, kinda forgetting about my little humble space, which I use to air my thoughts.

Project update: Ubin Challenge 2 is ON! May 29th, Sunday. Interested parties, please contact me to help out. It's gonna be a day-long affair, so better be prepared to be a little bit tanned, sweaty, sticky, tired, and fulfilled.

That Aswady bugger is getting on my nerves. ARGH! Thank goodness for Kak Fiza who probably knocked some sense into him, and me. And to Disa, Mas and Siti too, for without you guys, I would already have beheaded that little self-centred, I-think-I-know-it-all bugger.

Nevermind the pint-sized shortie. Rudy, thanks for the support too. You're one of my pillars of strength.

OK, so 1st of May, this Sunday, Rudy and I thought of going down to Ubin, to rough it out, and chill in the outback. We're looking for more people to join us, and everyone is most welcome. Do get in touch with me and I'll give you the details. Most probably it'll be 10.00am Sunday at Ubin Jetty. Bring your own food, beer, money whatever the essential may be. I'll only be providing you with some lame jokes.

SO bring on the sunshades, and the sunblock, the food and the sunscreen.

No more jemputan, please.

I RAN - For Better Health

I just got back from an hour of running and cardio-vascular actvities. Boy I'm shagged, sweaty and covered in freshly cut grass. It feels good all over again. Reminds me of my days in training.

I've always wanted to do this, from 21 March actually, and it's only NOW that I can get my butt up early enough to actually do something. I'm so exhausted.

I did it for a few reasons. Number 1: I was getting fat, and noticing it. You guys know how much I love my picture to be taken. Well, this time, I wasn't satisfied with my smile anymore. My jaws are no longer defined, and I looked tired, puffy and FAT. So I really need to shave off my inches to continue to look good.

Number 2: I really am getting fat. I watched 'SuperSize Me', a real story of a guy who went on a PURE McDonald's diet, 3 times a day, for 30 days eating nothing but the crap from the Golden Arches. Well, in 30 days, he put on a total of 16 kilograms (24.5 pounds) and his liver turned to fat. His choloestrol level increased and his risk of a heart failure doubled. In the 30 days, his BMI increased from 13.5 to 18.5. The story, is an inspiration, and a wake up call. Anyone wants to share the file? Just post a comment, and I'll figure out a way to send it to you. Meet-ups in Singapore only, will send via registered mail to South-East Asia. Anywhere else, we do P2P. And anyway, I ran also because I had to watch my weight. I am nowadays easily lethargic, unenthusiastic and I'm becoming lazier by the day. I can't stop munching and I find it difficult to stave off soft drinks (including Coffee and tea) for long.

Number 3: My sex life is in ruins. Not because I was an asshole and Abs did not want it anymore, no way. She still wants it bad, but I hardly have the mood, enthusiasm and drive to do it. Even if we do it, I feel that I haven't fulfilled her enough. I'm so sorry baby.

So this running regime, is not only for me, and the betterment of my health and looks, it's also for you. OK maybe it's not a regime, and probably is only one off, but I will not succcumb to defeat, rain or shine, I will be burning some calories, fat, and whatever it is in between.

OK, and interesting fact about calories... A calorie is a the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one liter of water by one degree. Cool eh.. So by running this morning, I would most probably have burnt about 800 calories, and I do not intend to replace the 800 calories by doing snacks and sweets today. Do you also know, that the average Singaporean consumes about 3250 calories daily, compared to 1500 in the poorer African nations, and 4050 in the US? Wow.

So today, I've got a MENDAKI event, an induction event for new volunteers. According to Zalina there would be 50 new volunteers this time, and I am looking forward to meeting them all and getting them enthusiastic about being a volunteer. Starts at 2pm, project assistants, to report at one. Firdaus, I'll meet you there, and fill you in on the details of the cycling event.

Then later in the evening, I got a kenduri Maulud at Grandma's place in Melville Park, Simei. I do hope to meet Izzatti, Shafie and Alia there. I miss em. Then we can take pics and put them up all over town.

I'm also gonna meet Sal later to get my Gema Temasek tickets. Not sure if she's treating, but I'll pay her back. I really don't know how to meet her later. It seems so leceh. Sal, meet me at MENDAKI lar.. Nevermind, I'll call you later.

That's that.

Abs, see you later. I can't wait to get my eyes on you.

Dinky Doinkers

It's official. I'm going nuts. I got this inpiration from a close friend. I can't believe that I had borrow an inspiration from someone.

Updates, Mendaki stuff. Cycling event on the 29th May. Thanks Jasman and Rudy for being willing to involving yourselves in it. If you bloghoppers are interested, you can click here for details and just leave a comment and I will reach you.

Other MENDAKI stuff, there's an induction session this Saturday afternoon for new and aspiring volunteers. I'll be hosting the thingy, so do come by if you're interested.

Day was sucky. I was a dysfunctional hypocrite, making Ady look like a fool with his proposal, which I must say, though is quite impressive, it still needs a bit on fine tuning to make it better. Speaking by experience, and the fact that many proposals and papers pass through my desk everyday, you need a bit less bombastically descriptive words and more concrete details.

Thanks Rudy for willing to raise my unrisen comments, I owe you one for the effort, bro.

Other than that, no other inspiration to blog...

Would you eat at Dinky Doinkers? Would you?

I love you, Abby.

It's a... Demolition Derby?

So Nokia's are super user-friendly, I must say. And me? I'm super-friendly. Just a little over the hill and exaggerting at times, with carefully minced up words, to be politically correct, but sounds so sharp and sarcastic when one figures it out.

So today wasn't a fantastic day. It didn't particulatly help that I went to Lim Chu Kang to cycle for a few hours, only to suggest abandoning the idea of having it there and having it elsewhere. I realise, that when you're confident, and assertive, things get done your way. But once you show signs that you're breaking down, the very people you push around is likely to rise up above you and sink you deep into the ground. But you really need to tell them again, who's in-charge, and the very reason why you're in-charge. Lead by example, let experience be your guide, let knowledge be your power, let words be your tool, and let bluff be your weapon.

Other than the unfruitful journey to LCK, it was all okay. Abby hates me again. Is the end near? I hope not.

Can safely say, that the day ended pretty well. I have no blogged proof of that, but I'll just let my experience and memory serve its puropse till the day I forget.

For now. For ever.

10 Too Long? What? 5?!

Ok. This mambo-jumbo has to stop.

If 10 is too long for you, 5 is too short for me.

If you find someone new, go ahead. I've had my best days with you anyway.

It definitely NOT of with me, especially with all the ups and downs we've been through.

If I knew that it's going to eventually be this way, I would not have even dared to think about it.

You're a few years older than me. And that seemed, for as long as it lasted, alright. And now? You suddenly tell me that it's NOT ok?

What's got into you, B? All those tears for this? I'm insulted B. Definitely insulted.

You're confusing me this very moment. I'm the best you've ever had, and you know it. But then why are you giving up NOW?

Is it my mistakes? If it's the real reason that we're through, it's only fair that I respect your decision, especially with all that you have to put up to.

How deep is my love, you ask? Tough one.

"I love you enough to think about you the first thing in the morning. I lvoe you enough to think about you just before I sleep. I love you enough to think about you all day and all night."

If I knew that it would come to this, I would not have even allowed myself to be in love with you in the first place. Criticisms and a whole lot of sheit aside, there's more to my love inside that what you see on the outside.

It's ok that you make me mad.
It's ok that you make me nuts over you.
It's ok that you doubt my love.
Cos it isn't your fault.

I love you more and more day by day these days. But now, for the first time in nearly 10 months, I am really doubting your love.

Songs for the Soul

Hey Everyone!

I have nothing to say. Just that i just got back from a super wild birthday chalet with Abby. I'm stoned, and I haven't had sleep for the past 70 odd hours. So I'm in definitely NO mood to be blogging a proper entry tonight.

I just have ONE event to publicise. It's this Sunday afternoon. It's at the Esplanade, and it's FREE! Contact me for details.

So, hope to see you guys Sunday!

Abby, I love you. Thanks for the wonderful 24 hours. Till last night, I was the fool.

The Crimson Tide

So its another Monday.

Nothing much. A season to be out of love, I guess. Well, everyone is out of love, or at least tired of it. But there are some who are still in search of it. Me you ask? Well, I'm very much in between in and way in.

It's amazing what love can do. It's amazing how love turns the world on its head. Like when you're in love, the whole world seems complete. And the world revolves around the person you truly love. And when love is lost, the world crumbles beneath your feet, making you fall into a deep abyss for hours and days before you hit a hard landing, and reality sinks in.

Love takes you out of reality for a while, making the world seem such a nice pristine place to live in. Love takes away all the pain, love takes away all the sorrow. But when love is gone, it leaves your world kinda hollow.

Love hurts. Yes, I agree. Love is a sacrifice. Love is desire. Love is sentient. Love is pure. Love is everlasting. Love is bliss. Love, well... Love is hard to explain.

If foreign beings asked me, what love is, I would find it hard to explain love. Probably if he Googled "Love", he'd get a lot of versions of it.

Let's ask ourselves, is porn love hard at work? Is Porn a game? Is Porn a get-rich-quick avenue? Is porn a form of entertainment? If love is meant for two, then why are there video cameras? Love simulators?

Many things can be subsituted for others. But not love. Love, as I mentioned, is sentient. It's a feeling, which only humans can feel, but can't comprehend.

In love you say? How many of us in love want out? But can we handle it? I can't. Only one true love before this, and it was hard to let go. But now I've successfully let go, and fallen into another, the feeling is different. More fulfilling... Learning more day by day.

I know of someone looking for love. He's heartbroken a million times before. But he's still looking for the coveted Ms Right. While most of us are throwing love out the window, this friend of mine, hopes to settle down fast. Time's catching up with him. So anyone who's out of love too, and looking, do drop me a mail.

So much for love. So much for the Crimson Tide.

Abby, thanks so much for your love.

That Was a Bad Joke was it?

Me, away from my ladies? Hahaha...

Some joke. My ladies, especially my present one, is so important to me. And, no, Yanti, I will not be a miserable Babatish fella in 20 years. I already am.

The GIRL in the past, thanks for the good advise.

The GIRL in the present, will you be the future too?

Abby, thanks for everything.

A New Begining

This may come as a shock to many.

As of today, 1st April 2005, I'm breaking all relations with ALL the ladies in my past, present and future. I've decided to remain single, available, and definitely eligible for as long as I possibly can.

So till I'm 28, or 35, or even 40... I'll just wait for the Miss Right to come, or Mr Right if things are that bad now.

Abby you say? Well... Some things better be left unsaid. Others undone.

It's a silent thought. And this entry, is a careless whisper.

I've even laid off the bad stuff, chocolates. No uh... No more sinful chocolates. A little bit for cravings, it's ok. But definitely not for indulgence.

Abby, Sorry.

Can a Question have no answer?

Dear God, Give me the answers I seek. Give me the strength to continue loving and caring, in this world full of hatred, and discontentment.

Dear God, do give me the strength, to go another day, with all the challenges I face.

Dear God, give me the ability to be the best that I can be, for my family and friends.

Dear God, please ensure her safety, and the safety of those she loves, and those who love her.

Dear God, don't take away this gift of patience, and faith which you have bestowed upon me, as it helps me keeps my sanity in times like this. Don't take away the love that I have for the people I care for.

Dear God, beyond everything I ask for help to make sure that the people I care for remain as happy as can be, even though you need to shroud me in misery.

random-things to say .

Choosing to Love you,
Is the best decision I've made, so far.

Wanting you to be happy,
Is my only consideration now.

Leaving you all alone,
Was never an option.

To be thinking about you always,
Is not easy, especially in tough times.

Being CHOPE
Is incomplete without the REAL chickadee.
