Friends Or Foe

Our school conducted a Composing A Poem competition for the students last week and this poem was awarded The Best Poem.

Looks naive

Inside you, a knife

Sweet talker

Great listener

Loves to blow your own trumpet

Distracting others' attention

When there's an argument

You make it bigger

Bad blood spreads

The quarrels are endless

But suddenly my heart misses

I miss the voice

Miss the laughs

and "Hey! I'm sorry. It's my fault"

Then

The same thing keeps repeating

Friends Or Foe (by Fatehah)

I Am A Cat Person

As you might have noticed, I frequently post pics of my cats on my Instagram. Currently, I have two cats. The first one is Lupita. She was born a day after this year's Academy Awards. I named her Lupita as a tribute to my newest favourite actress, Lupita Nyongo who happened to win the Oscar for Best Actress, this year. My second cat is still a kitten, I still can't figure out the gender yet but for now, let's just assume that the kitten is a he. His name is Karo which pragmatically means treasure. He is goldish yellow in colour and loves to wiggle his tail, like a puppy. I can tell that Karo is a super playful cat. On the other hand, Lupita is very unfriendly. She doesn't like humans, including me and the other people in the house. She doesn't mix with other cats as well. She is a loner. Weird but true. But they are my cats and I love them. I wish I can post their pics here but I've already posted pics of them on my Instagram so it's better to just visit my Instagram, don't you think?

Blogging On The Go

I've just installed the Blogger app in my phone. So, now I can post entries on my blog anytime and anywhere. Now that's convenient!

Initially I wanted to delete this blog but there are so many things I shared that make me feel great when I read them back. I really feel like me again when I read the older posts. I forgot who I was and I feel like I've changed so much after reading the old ones.

This blog is a treasure that is worth keeping.

I Am Back!

Hello! Anybody here. [knock knock]

I don't know if anyone would want to read this. I guess nobody really cares anymore since I haven't written anything for so long. But I am going to write anyway.

*****

I am terrified of the future.

*****

The questions about the future keep popping out in my head. My friend told me not to think too much about it. "Worry about it when the time comes or you'll get wrinkles", he said.

However, I am aware of the fact that the future is shaped by what we do now. In simple words, the future is actually taking place at this very moment. My conclusion of this is, the past, the present and the future are actually three dots that walk in parallel throughout the timeline.

Now the question is, why am I terrified of the future? It's because I want to exist even though I am no longer breathing. I want to live forever by leaving something behind that people will always remember. My point is, I want people to remember me. Don't you think it's sad to leave with nothing at all even a bit of remembrance of your existence? It is very sad.

I want my existence to be acknowledged. I want to leave my mark. That is why I am terrified of the future. I am afraid that throughout my years of living, I have done nothing significant.

*****

Yes, I am afraid of being nobody.

Post KDM Idol

KDM Idol has finally ended. I have to say the performances of the contestants were superb. Like I said in my Facebook status, I could never imagine myself being one of the finalists because I'd be clueless on how to 'beautify' my performance. Maybe it was not meant for me or it was not my 'turn' yet.

Oh for those readers (if there are) who are wondering what KDM Idol is, it is a singing competition organized by Kadazan Dusun Murut Malaysia (KDM Malaysia) association where the offered prizes are ridiculous for Sabah level, which is awesome actually. The main prize is RM100K, 1st runner up is RM50K, 2nd runner up is RM30K and so on. The least amount of prize is RM10K so you can imagine how big this competition is.

I actually joined this competition but ended up only being in the Top 29 out of 600++ contestants who auditioned. It's quite an impressive achievement right? Haha.

Well, the winner is Arie Famree Sius, a super talented + creative singer/performer. I competed with him once before this competition and I have to admit I could never beat this guy when it comes to stage performance.

He is so blessed. I am so freaking jealous with him because he won that hundred thousand. But again I have to admit, he deserved it. Plus, he's a good person. Truly an idol.

Watching him win last night, I suddenly thought about myself. How far am I going in this business. Someone told me last night that I could have gone further. But I am still stuck here at this level. I keep on telling myself again and again that it's probably not my time yet. Guess I'll have to start from scratch again. Guess I need to learn more before I can soar.

Id Pagandadan | The Wait

Do you know how does it feel like?

It feels like sh*t!

I waited for you to reply for a very very long time.

You did eventually.

But what for? I am DEAD anyway.

Di Kedai Kopi

I heard a lot of noises. It was a typical Malaysian scenario. Ada yang bincang pasal bisnes. Ada yang berkasih sayang. Ada yang membebel. But mostly mengumpat. [Sigh]

Buvazoi Tavantang 2012

It has been really really long time I have not posted anything in my blog. Kesian blog ini sebab tuannya pemalas. Haha.

Anyway, I've been busy doing so many things actually. Apart from studies, I was busy singing and performing. Recently, I joined Buvazoi Tavantang (Mr. Kaamatan) competition. It's actually a male beauty pageant. Keep in mind that this beauty pageant is not like the other beauty pageants. It is culturally rich where the contestants who are representing their own district will parade the traditional costume from their respective district. This competition is a male version of Unduk Ngadau. If you don't know Unduk Ngadau, google it. It is BIG in Sabah. Likewise, Buvazoi Tavantang is regarded as the most prestigious male beauty pageant in Sabah.

So, like what I've mentioned, I joined Buvazoi Tavantang. I represented my hometown, the district of Ranau. Guess what, I placed third. It was a BIG surprise for me because I have no experience whatsoever and this is my first time joining such competition. This is definitely one of the best things I've experienced. 

I would like to say thank you to my idol and also my mentor, the first ever Buvazoi Tavantang, Mr. Keddy Mahdfuz for all the support and guidance. I am very lucky to have the best of the best person to seek guidance from. 

I know you guys want to see pictures. Enjoy. 

The contestants. Most of the contestants. Some are missing.

Friends.

When I Am Down

Studying is very stressing. No doubt about that. But that probably applies only for me. I was on the verge of giving up. Thank you to my friends. They lift up my spirit and give me reasons to hold on. I am lucky to have such friends. Love them very much.

Tuna Cheese Sandwich.

Introducing Tuna Cheese Sandwich. It's my friend's favourite meal at Yoyo. It only costs RM5. The taste? It's quite delicious but don't forget to ask for more cheese. 

In Love

I could not believe I could fall so deeply in love with you. Loving you is beautiful. I will love you for eternity. Dear God, please let us be together in your heaven.

This Is Why Friends Are Important

Now What?

I gave you the thing
Now what?

You want more?
Saya sumbat kertas-kertas ini dalam mulut kau!

Something You Should've Known

Something you should've known
We're not as experienced as you
We're amateurs
We're here to learn

Something you should've known
When you expect too much
And get the least
That's where your problem rises

Kantoi

Ada sebuah kisah seorang stalker. Time si orang ni bercakap di telefon, dia (stalker) ni pun mau dengar juga perbualan tersebut. 

Selepas berbual, si orang ni pun keluar dari bilik dan menuju ke dapur sebab dia haus.

Si stalker ni pula fikir si orang tu masih bertelefon di dalam bilik. Maka dia pun mendekatkan telinganya ke dinding bilik untuk mencuri dengar.

Dalam pada itu, si orang ni keluar dari dapur dan nampak perbuatan si stalker ini. Tapi untuk tidak memalukan si stalker, dia buat bunyi supaya si stalker tu sedar kehadiran dia dan berpura-pura tidak nampak perbuatan si stalker tadi.

Si stalker terkejut beruk lalu pura-pura cover malu.

Si orang itu hanya mampu tersenyum.

Sumpah-Sumpah

Ya Allah. Tanpa saya sedari, sudah masuk minggu kedua bulan puasa. Lupa pula mau wish 'selamat berpuasa' kepada semua umat Islam yang berpuasa. Maka dengan itu, saya ambil peluang keemasan ni untuk mengucapkan selamat berpuasa di bulan Ramadhan yang mulia ini kepada semua umat Islam walau di mana anda berada. Semoga puasa pada tahun ini lebih baik daripada tahun-tahun lepas.

Now is actually my bedtime. But before I sleep, I feel like sharing something. Do you know what is a 'sumpah-sumpah'? I know the word in English but I forgot the spelling. Yes, I'm talking about a /kemilien/. Again, sorry, I forgot the spelling and I'm too lazy to search for it in the internet. 

Anyway, so, you know that the /kemilien/ changes its colour according to the colour of its environment, right? I am exactly like the /kemilien/. I am able to change my colour too, but not literally lah. I'm talking about the word 'mood'. My mood changes according to my surrounding. For example, just now, I don't know what happened to this fellow, tiba-tiba marah tidak tentu pasal sampaikan saya yang baik-baik happy pun terikut marah. Therefore, to avoid myself from hurting someone else's feeling (because my mouth is a bitch when I am angry), I shut my mouth. But then bila saya diam memanjang, ini pula yang saya dapat.  

"Kenapa kau tidak mau cakap sama saya nih? Kau ingat bagus kah diam-diam macam tu? Apa masalah kau ni? Bikin stress betul lah kau nih?"

Sorry, I exaggerate a bit.

Anyway, I was like, WTF? Is it my problem or yours? I tried so hard not to say anything just to make sure I would not hurt your feeling. Tapi saya pula kena marah balik. What should I do? Kalau saya bising, nanti dia tambah sakit hati. Kalau saya diam pun dia marah. Betul-betul macam peribahasa 'diluah mati ibu, ditelan mati bapa' dan 'keluar mulut singa, masuk pula mulut buaya'.

Eh, betulkah peribahasa yang kedua tu?

Tukar Kerjaya

Rasa macam mau tukar kerjaya lah. Saya seorang guru sekarang. Esok mau jadi penyanyi. Lusa mau jadi director. Boleh? Atau buat semua sekaligus lagi bagus? Tidak payah tukar-tukar profession.

Just to inform all of you (readers), baru-baru ni saya ada dengar satu lagu baru nyanyian Dang Mar Ezzah. Dia ni sebenarnya junior saya di IPGM Kampus Gaya. First time dengar lagu ni saya terus jatuh cinta. Segala macam ilham terus mencurah-curah ke ladang gandum bila saya dengar lagu ni. 

Oleh sebab saya sangat suka lagu ni, saya pun meng-offer-kan diri buat MV untuk lagu ni. Dalam kepala saya terfikir saya ni gila atau apa. Camera pun tiada. Macamana mau buat video? Camera phone Nokia E72 tu adalah. Lantaklah. Teruskan saja buat. Hopefully, hasilnya nanti OK.

So, this is the video. Saya tidak mau banyak cakap. Kalau kamu suka, kamu share lah. Kalau tidak suka pun mohon share juga. Sebab lagu ni best. By the way, congratulations to Lucy Gawis and Dang Mar Ezzah for composing this song. It is a lovely song. I really really love it. Nanti buatkan saya satu lagu yang sedap macam ni, boleh? 

I'm A Killer

I accidentally killed my cat today. I did not know he was under my car.

I'm so sorry Nginging. You'll always be my favourite cat.

Adaptasi (Luahan Hati Seorang Guru Praktikum)

Mula-mula masuk kerja, excited gila. Datang ke tempat kerja dengan senyuman yang sangat lebar sebab takut dilabel sombong. Minggu pertama ialah minggu orientasi. Sepanjang minggu ni, muka tu kena sentiasa ceria dan bersemangat. Rasa macam pakai botox sebab senyuman maintain lebar setiap hari. Minggu kedua bolehlah buat muka serius ala-ala komited dengan kerja. Tapi sebenarnya masih clueless dengan skop kerja yang sebenar. Masuk minggu ketiga, kerja membuat peta dunia di office bermula dengan rasminya. Rupa-rupanya profesion ini agak relaks sebenarnya (for now).

P/S: Saya masih belajar. Kalau salah tolong tunjukkan.
