2 together

it is interesting to find out what old friends and family are doing now, after 2 years plus being abroad.. or 3 years after college. but seems like everyone has their own life going for them. which is good to know..

some have gotten so large in life, career wise even physically. :P

yet some things are still the same.. just as how i like it and hope it stays that way.

like the sizzling steak at Victoria Station.. mmmmmm..


taken 2 weeks back. celebrating family.

cus in the end.. family comes first doesnt it.. ?

running wild

there are moments when i wish i was still a kid at the age of 7,
to roam free and not care about the world,
to only know of family, friends and perhaps cartoons on the tele,
never a thought about work, bills or responsibility,
how i wish there neverland was real,
that i be peterpan for a day,

though i may never be a child again..

least i am there for them when they want to play..

and perhaps i can pretend to be 7 and giggle happily ever after

my ride

saving minyak doe...

the 2 years part 2

to begin with.. final year engineering is tough.. i struggled terribly with my project first time around. in my desperation i prayed for a miracle.. 


this was my miracle.. in the form of her.. she calmed me down.. showed me faith and basically made me thrive harder since she herself was a boffin.  grr. 



somehow, students abroad are also regarded very highly by the government as the future leaders and intellects of the country, though it does make sense but sometimes i feel that the treatment were receiving should be toned down abit. cus think about it.. the high achievers of high school will gain entry into local universities.. the not so high achievers like myself would then do diploma in local institutions and later continue to do degree overseas. then later be regarded as better more creditable. which is rather ironic.



i guess its totally different when your in love abroad.. you are more connected and more dependant on one another..  the month of spring with the missus for the first time was one of the most memorable for me :) 



as the bf, the missus wanted to watch a football match and perhaps she is my lucky charm since the seats we got was so near to the pitch it was absolutely phenomenal ! the picture above was taken without zoom from my seat. the game was shite though.. we didnt even realize the goal until everyone was screaming. a tip to note is that international friendlies tend to be dull. :P  



customary to all final years was the farewell dinner and i guess its different when its you who's being honored. playing dressup was absolutely fun as well. i loved my grey suit to bits.. sadly i missplaced it during my numerous moves from accomodation to accomodation.. sigh..



my darkest hour came in the month of june 2008. thankfully with the support of family i managed to pull myself through.. slowly.. but surely..



another thing about being abroad is that since its so bloody hard to get meals which is common in malaysia.. we tried to make it ourselves.. especially the missus and me.. everyweek we tried something new .. using the power of the internet and a certain someone *hint i**n hint* .. here is a steak the missus made which in my tastebuds as good as any steak in town let it be american chili's, victoria station or whatever.



people often say as well that you should try to experience all UK has to offer, one of which is concerts .. ironically, im not exactly a fan of concerts and didnt go for any except for jason mraz which was a very spontaneous trip up to warwick. which was fun.



fruit picking is also another fun trip. from picking riped fruits to throwing over-riped fruits to friends. eating cherry's.. ahh.. that i'm surely gonna miss. oh also, from this trip we managed to find out who are the greedy ones who take a basket full of cherry's but overloaded it till the basket's handle broke. hahaha. *ahem Wan ahem* :P



when its constantly dark and gloomy do you finally miss the sun and its glorious warmth. its even hard to find a nice sandy beach to dip your toes ..



with the missus gone back home and me struggling to find my way .. it was hard .. i didnt felt like celebrating Eid since there was no reason to be celebrating. i was in mourning and only went to visit 2 houses.



thankfully that i had friends who didnt care about the past and slowly found my steps ..

thats gonna cost me for sure.

brilliant effin start to my homecoming..

gah.

a warning

friends and family back in malaysia.. please.. spare a moment to read the next few lines .. 

recently a friend of mine was robbed in plain daylight.. it was on the 30th of Jan at 9am in SS 7 Kelana Jaya. according to my friend the victim, she was outside her friends house about to enter the car when the both of them was jumped/ambushed by the robber. the robber/thief tried grab my friends bag. being the rebellious person she is, she resisted. thats when the robber took out a 'rambo looking knife' and held it against her friends neck. whilst she still resisted, the friend screamed for her to just let the robber have the bag. as she was half way letting go of her bag, her hand was slashed by the robber. 

she hadnt notice the wound until later when the robber had fleed and she was bleeding profusely. 

when she arrived at the hospital the doctor said that 3 of her tendons in her wrist was cut and she had to go for surgery. 

so friends and family, please do takecare when your alone about to leave the house for work or anything.. especially if your a girl. guys u might think that its unlikely for guys to be robbed, think again cus shit might just happen to anyone these days.

my friend was traumatized but is now slowly getting better. 

she also sent me a picture which i have linked below. mind you the picture is of grotesque in nature. so those of you who cannot stand blood or the likes of it.. please refrain from clicking. 

ouchie.danger!danger!
