My Saving Grace - Armor for Sleep

Lyrics for this song finally out. wooweee

Am I a toy to you?
With strings around my fingers,
for you to pull and watch as I collapsed when you want.
The coldest night to me, is a switch that you control.
Tip-toe around your words just to calm you down again.

There’s too many people that we both love
and too many secrets I don’t wanna know.

You’re still chasing him.
My saving grace is saving face.
Lost on the back burner.
Good for, good for you.
My saving grace is saving face.
I just sit and wait.

There’s always just enough of you to pull me back.
But I can see your eyes drifting past what you have.
I’m flagging down a ship when it’s on its way to sea.
The horn is blaring out, but I just don’t want to hear.

I never left you in a sandstorm.
I never left for a second at all.

You’re still chasing him.
My saving grace is saving face.
Lost on the back burner.
Good for, good for you.
My saving grace is saving face.
I just sit and wait.

I thought you were and angel, I guess you were a vulture.
Either way, spread your wings and just fly away. [x2]

You’re still chasing him.
My saving grace is saving face.
Lost on the back burner.
Good for, good for you.
My saving grace is saving face.
I just sit and wait.

I just sit and wait. (Spread your wings and fly away) [x4]

edukasi

it is undeniable that the lingua franca of the world right now is english. a medium of communication that is perhaps, arguably the most important tool a human can learn in order to effectively communicate and express him/herself. there is no doubt that the very essence of english or as a matter of fact, the very essence of language itself is to enable people to be able to willfully transmit in the best way, what is going on in their intricate minds.

now, one might think the purpose of an education is to enable members of a society, a state, and even a nation to be able to benefit from it. that is the basic and best advantage of having an education. one is taught how to think analytically and creatively, and progressively using their skill in expression to exchange ideas and ideals with people. this is an important part of the development of civilisation, as it is to be noted that civilisation is not the product of any one man, but the evolution of thinking, sharing and expressing.

the education system is said to be failing when there is a obvious similarity in thinking of the students undergoing that education system. the same can be said when there is an obvious flaw in the ability of the students to express and to give opinions. it can be postulated that spoon-feeding and an exceedingly unhealthy reliance on an exam based evaluation might play a part in the degeneration of a system of education. this postulation apparently proves to be true in the nation of malaysia.

a nation where national exams are made the 'make or break' benchmark for students, this allows for a situation where the student would try to 'make' it using whatever means possible. the result of this? a student that is learning often by memorising and not understanding, their ability to express rendered useless and replaced by their ability to memorize.

and the result of being not able to express efficiently? the students rapidly degenerate at language skills. this, a nation where students who are well into their tertiary education could not even form a simple sentence in english is utterly embarrassing as the language has been taught in schools since they were a child of 7. is this the way to go?

do not be mislead by the notion that this nation is full of morons as this is not true. in fact, malaysia has produced excellently capable individuals who have left their mark in time. this can yet again be proven by the fact that this year's top scorers for the cambridge A levels (worldwide) are malaysians. the background of their education is unclear, but rest assured that the educational facilities from which they hail from are not public, but private.
yet again, the product of the public education system cannot be written off as mere thrash as it does indeed proves to excel as can be seen particularly in certain STPM top scorers.

the real question is, where is the malaysian education system headed? to certain doom, or for the better? this remains to be seen. as a product of this very education system, i am of the opinion that this could still go both ways. drastic measures need to be taken for our future. we need to learn our lesson.

Rear-Guard

Book of Isiah, chapter 52, verse 12:

But you will not leave in haste
or go in flight;
for the Lord will go before you,
the God of Israel will be your rear-guard.

Thank You Lord, for Your word has brought me joy, courage and comfort in the fact that You will always be there, making sure my path is safe and to protect me against harm. I shall fear naught even though i may be confronted by difficulty, for by Your grace and grace alone, i will pull through.

Amen.

Carry You - Jimmy Eat World

as per title:

when i know i'm all alone
i say your name slowly and i know that i'm alone
but i carry you
does it feel good? like the memory?
when you try some history,
it's a dream to come around,
the rule doesnt bend because the taste dont taste the same again,
it's easy feeling righteous when removed
all you'll get is what you want to hear
it hurts because it should
how else am i to make it clear?

i could never be the one that you want, dont ask.
here's to living in the moment, cause it passed.

maybe a lie is what i need
sometimes you told the most, the best of anyone
you said to keep me in your pocket, so i carried you.
you better choose your words carefully
because im not your anything
going to stay here in my place and you'll stay in yours
because you're only good for what your good
for, i pace around the room to spend the time waiting
while the burning pictures fade
it's one thing to make your mind
and another to say its name

i could never be the one that you want, dont ask.
here's to living in the moment, cause it passed.

i'm still carrying a little hope that maybe,
things could be different now, is that so wrong? is that so wrong? is that so...wrong?
would i see you tonight, at a place we'd go
(could going through the motions, lead to real emotions)
i want to make things right, before time runs out
(it was like you said, the taste dont taste like it should)
roll down the windows
let the cold air come in
slap my face just to feel,
just to feel you somehow again

i could never be the one that you want, dont ask.
here's to living in the moment, because it passed.
it passed.

looksie what i gots.




went to get jimmy eat world's album today, and when i went there lo and behold there was mae's singularity sitting just beside it! mwahahaha double kill, godlike!

there was nothing much to shout about for mae's album, since i already gave it numerous listens (it's awesome but).

Jimmy Eat World, however scored big with their bonus track which was not included in the *coughleakedcough* version. the song, titled be sensible is freaking awesome.

crazy labour day long weekend

unrelated: [prelude]


yep, lack of updates again. i'm still recovering after a long labour day weekend. gosh.

started on friday evening when i went down to parramatta for youthopea. sculled a whole 375ml can of coke in 1 shot. that made my stomach feel like exploding man. mucked around after youthopea, fooling with the skateboard n some friends. got back at around 1-ish and went to bed at around 3am =]

on saturday, woke up at 8, went for a 5km beach walk at bondi. had hurricane's pork ribs n portuguese chicken. heaven. also tried fried mars bar...that shit is so good it's bad. then headed to maroubra beach for a swim. went to jim's 22nd bday after the beach at hog's breath. got back at around 11, went online n slept at 2.

on sunday, this 1 is crazy. woke up at 8 again, went to church, had italian for lunch. it was so good. and then went to had a haircut at eastwood. then headed back to ourimbah to change n get ready. after that, made a trip back down to darling harbour for GODSKITCHEN 2007. the event was held at Home. the biggest club in sydney, new south wales and some say australia.

godskitchen featured dj's such as Rank1, M.I.K.E, the thrillseekers, Richard Durand, and Alex Gaudino among others.

well, Salman and I went in at 11, and from then on it was madness till 5am. the whole event was actually from 9pm til 6am.

after that, crashed at salman's place at 6.30 til 10. (yup crazy eh, and i did it all without the help of redbull, just a couple smirnoffs and a fag)

Got to hornsby at around 11.30 to meet cheah for a movie and lunch and was out in chatswood til about 8pm. took a train at 9 and got home at bout 11...went online til 2am, i dont know why and finally crashed til 3pm on monday. am currently still recovering.

natural or goof?

that's the first and foremost question asked. and perhaps one of the most important questions involved in either the make or break attempt at snowboarding.

well, say no more...i'm a natural, which refers to the position of your left leg facing forward while boarding down a slope. Goof refers to your right leg facing forward while going down a slope.

did not bad at my 1st attempt at snowboarding, was stumbling and kept on crashing in front of skiing chicks in beginning but i got the hang of it later on.

got my heelside and toeside down pat, well almost, also successfully learnt the S-curves..woohoo, although i still cant do it well on steep slopes. i can now maneuver around snow muahahahaha...

also not forgetting my greatest crash yet...3 revolutions tumbling down a slope...magnificent...if only it was caught on video...

the location (noob slope by the way...this is chicken feed)
the equipment (actually abit more equipment involved)

also thanks to my 2 awesome snowboard sifus, pastor dave and tanga!

"Stacy's Mom"

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on

Stacy, can I come over after school? (after school)
We can hang around by the pool (hang by the pool)
Did your mom get back from her business trip? (business trip)
Is she there, or is she trying to give me the slip? (give me the slip)

You know, I'm not the little boy that I used to be
I'm all grown up now, baby can't you see

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want and I've waited for so long
Stacy, can't you see you're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong but I'm in love with Stacy's mom

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on

Stacy, do you remember when I mowed your lawn? (mowed your lawn)
Your mom came out with just a towel on (towel on)
I could tell she liked me from the way she stared (the way she stared)
And the way she said, "You missed a spot over there" (a spot over there)

And I know that you think it's just a fantasy
But since your dad walked out, your mom could use a guy like me

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want, and I've waited so long
Stacy, can't you see you're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong,
but I'm in love with Stacy's mom

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want and I've waited for so long,
Stacy can't you see your just not the girl for me,
I know it might be wrong but oh oh

I'm in love with (Stacy's mom oh oh)
(Stacys mom oh oh)
I'm in love with Stacy's mom

believe in me - rooney

believe in me - rooney (from album calling the world)

I can never win with you
I try but you don't let me through
What's the point in fighting when we're down?

I know I've been acting strange
But wait don't leave I know I'll change
We're wasting all our time together now

I don't know what to say
Every word just makes you turn away
And I don't know what to do
Every day I want to be with you
Well I've lost the battle and I'm losing the war
And I keep on asking myself what for
If you believe in fate and destiny
Then open your eyes and believe in me

I call up and apologize
But you just think its one big lie
Don't you know you're pushing me away?

We've been through so much together
You can't tell me the past will never
Mean a thing it's more than a memory

Cause everyone I see around
Tells me that I'm such a fool
For making you my punching bag
When things really weren't that bad

I've lost you now
I've lost you now
But I don't know how to get you back
I'm not myself
I'm not myself
I've gotta get us back on track

1st Mae, now Rooney...woootz!

Just Let Go - Mae

Just Let Go - Mae (from the new album, singularity...to be released 14.8.07)

We've got all night, just to make it alright.
Would you take a walk with me?
I’ll give you all I've got, just spare me your time.
And I’ll promise you won’t want to leave.
Are you, are you falling for me?
This time, we’ll find what we both need.

There’s an old oak tree.
We can swing and sway.
You hold on to me.

(you’re so far away)

When I look at you.
You’re so far away.
Oh, So far away.
Oh, if you could just let go.

(Would you relax) with me just for awhile
I’ll take you out of harms way.
Like these branches that shelter the rain.
We can lay here in our own shade.

Are you, are you falling for me?
Just watch, the two of us will see.

There’s an old oak tree.
We can swing and sway.
You hold on to me.

(you’re so far away)

When I look at you.
You’re so far away.
Oh, So far away.

There is so much that I could give to you.
Just say you want me to.
I know these words could break the ground.
And in the mean time our leaves will turn.
But rest assured, we’ll get through anything.

Are you, are you falling for me
Like I, oh I’m falling for you?

There’s an old oak tree.
We can swing and sway.
You hold on to me.

(you’re so far away)

It's just you and me.
We can get away.
We can get away.

(you’re so far away)

(In this place)
We are happy here.
Oh in every way.

Oh and we just let go.
Just let go.
Just let go.
Just let go.

clouds


They say every cloud has a silver lining. As a child, i always wonder what that meant. Silver lining? but clouds are white in colour! how absurd! and with this reasoning, i left the matter at rest, for a few years.

As i was travelling on the train a few days back, on a fine and sunny day, my sight fell upon the the sky outside. What greeted me was a few clouds, glowing magnificently in the afternoon sun, and what i realised there and then, was that it was true. each and every cloud in the sky does have a silver lining afterall.

Humans are, in that sense similar to clouds. Each and everyone of us has a silver lining, a moment of splendour, a beautiful side of us, glowing brightly in the presence of the sun. And although the middle may seem gloomy and dull, comfort should be taken in the knowledge that there will always be this silver lining.

It also brought me to a realisation that we, as do clouds, need the sun. The sun which brings out the best in us. The sun of which light we reflect to give off a beautiful glow. To some, the sun may be a person, to others, maybe an object. To me, it is my Lord

blogger clampdown

in accordance to some of the arguments made by certain ministers in the parliament of malaysia regarding bloggers, "Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Nazri said the government would be taking legal action against bloggers who flagrantly belittled Islam or the Yang di Pertuan Agong."

He also stressed about his worries on the "troubling growth" of irresposible alternative media. Due to many events of which some lead to the arrest and trial of certain malaysian bloggers due to seemingly trivial circumstances, the level freedom of speech in malaysia, a democratic country is in doubt. With ministers also declaring that the nation is islamic instead of secular, we can only wonder how long until investors flee the country.

being the rebel that i am, i shall now say that the YDP ahkong, is a waste of national resources to maintain, and that the position holds no advantage to the state of the country either...it's like employing a sleeping CEO in a corporation. I do not wish to further flame the religion of which the YDP is associated with for fear of my home being bombed by terrorists.

and yes, one can imagine me sticking out my tongue, with one hand making silly faces and the other showing the middle finger to our dear beloved ministers. maybe u can come get me during your private vacation down under which i'm sure are funded by taxpayers, Mr. Lah

rainy rainy

turns out that...
it was a rainy, uneventful day for benjamin.
The person
whom he was talking to suggested a walk, he said "u know, it's weird
that i thought i like
rainy days, but now i think that sunny days are much better!". This
is the person that i
thought was one of those moody, dull people. So i guess u can never really judge a book by it's cover aye. rainy days are what i, too
never ever liked. Period.

no suitable title

cos im just popping in to say, decepticons rule!

and that some things, may and will change regardless of how u feel about it...the feeling is like falling down a cliff with nothing but grass to hold on to...u just can't put a stop to it and say "enough! stop it already!"

although sometimes u still wonder whether the changes are done by your own hands or by external factors which are often uncontrollable, it is foolish and i know it is to try and mend things. sometimes, it's just not meant to be mended, sometimes, you need to put a stop to it, and sometimes, you need to find your way out...i have, and i will do it again.

end of the world

current song addiction: end of the world - armor for sleep.

excerpt from lyrics:

Everything around you, is gonna turn into,
The biggest pile of ashes,
That you could ever imagine.

Everything around you is gonna turn into,
The biggest pile of nothingness.
So keep on running, keep on running.

I wanna stay at home for the end of the world,
Falling asleep when they're dropping the bomb
This is all a dream,
Thats what I'll be singing.

cant stop listening to it now...can totally imagine it as a decepticon song...woohoo

ice skating, i still can't do the skidding type of brake..dangggg

and..wow feels good to be able to help people out...its been a while since i've had that feeling, especially events leading that made it seem like i'm there really for a reason, circumstances that made helping so easy...

dont feel like writing much...sien...australia sucks...release yellowcard so late, and no rooney yet...shiat...

random excerpt from kill - jimmy eat world:
Oh God, please don't tell me this has been in vain (vain)
I need answers for what all the waiting I've done means (means)
You kill me, you've got some nerve, but can't face your mistakes (hey hey, hey hey)
I know what I should do, but I just can't turn away

23

23 - Jimmy Eat World

I felt for sure last night
That once we said goodbye
No one else will know these lonely dreams
No one else will know that part of me
I'm still driving away
And I'm sorry every day
I won't always love these selfish things
I won't always live...
Not stopping...

It was my turn to decide
I knew this was our time
No one else will have me like you do
No one else will have me, only you

You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I'm here I'm now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Don't give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

Amazing still it seems
I'll be 23
I won't always love what I'll never have
I won't always live in my regrets

You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I'm here I'm now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Don't give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I'm here I'm now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Don't give away the end
The one thing that stays mine...


my most recent song addiction...woohoo, jimmy eat world rocksss


on a sidenote, i passed my exams. and on another side note, i gotta run for work now, and i'm not really feeling up to it...am feeling tired, and i think i got a headache coming up!

Tuesday, July 10, 2007

ever had the feeling where something big just happened...something important...something of significance...you're happy, very contented, felt at peace for that moment

and then...like an anchor, a rock tied to your feet, the whole weight of the situation sets in...

you then realise that u may not have made the best move...someone may have suffered in return for that joy u were having...guilt then sets in...you wonder what to do next...and you ponder on the possibility that you are not alone in this...

for a moment, just a second, i hope you give me a piece of your mind...for my understanding...

time, like a drop of water shining brilliantly under the glow of the sun
brilliant and magical for a moment, ordinary the next as it integrates into the flowing river that is time, stopping for none. For as we have an enjoyable moment, it seems to flow faster, like torrents down a waterfall, releasing misty droplets that form rainbows under the afternoon sun.
It could also move along calmly, slowly, beautiful and serene, peaceful with every moment we take to stoop down and smell the roses.

Time, once gone forever gone...that is what makes memories so precious.

and precious indeed is the time spent in Katoomba, Blue Mountains.

lazy upload pictars, maybe later :p

p.s: i am now once again a free man, after the freakin exams, now time to relaaxxx. boy do i enjoy taking hiatuses

yep, today marks the 1st time i've earned money in australia! whoopeedoo....although it was just a meager sum of $50.

what did it serve to remind me though, was how hard it is to earn money...

what am i working as? haha i'm being a kitchen slave for thai ourimbah...my job's to clean the dishes and do some washing up. it's no easy task though...

the job details may sound simple and easy but that's just what meets the eye...
i work on fridays and saturdays from 6pm until the restaurant closes. the restaurant stops taking orders at 9pm, and then is when the torments starts...once the restaurant stops taking orders, i'll have one huge shitload of plates, bowls, pots, and utensils to wash...

we're all only allowed to leave after cleaning up...but oh well, i earn 50 bucks a night for that, and that means 100 bucks a week...which means 400 bucks a month...which is equal to about RM1.2k..not such a bad sum after converting eh?

and that is even more than what i earned working in fucking billion in form 4...that time i only earned about RM500+ - 600 for a full day job, 11am to 9 fucking pm...talk about exploitation in malaysia -__-''

ohh yeah, it almost slipped my mind...i get free dinner as well! now that's what i call ' will work for food' :p

Acquaintances

It is only fair to assume that sooner or later, there will be acquaintances of mine who would stumble upon this blog, either with the knowledge of the identity of the author, or not. For those who found this blog and know who i am, welcome.

for this will be the place that i write whatever i want to, whenever i dont have writer's block.

this will also be a place where i sometimes write about musings from the bottom of my heart.

this will be a place of no censorship whatsoever. in other words, i dont care who reads this, im not going to bother being politically correct.

and really, there aren't supposed to be any who are aware of the existence of this :)

Mother's Appreciation Day

The day this year falls on the 13th of May, which falls on a Sunday. A day which people spend with their mothers in appreciation of all the sacrifices and hardships faced in bringing them up. Regretfully, i am unable to celebrate this day together with my mum this year. If given the chance, i would really like to bring my mum out to breakfast and then maybe a movie and some shopping. It's ironic that i didn't do any of those when i had to chance to, funny that i only think about doing such things for her when i am far away and unable to. I guess it is true that people only appreciate things more when they are deprived of it.

To cherish her more, it is only appropriate that i fulfill my role as a filial son, and that comes with maturity and responsibility. With that, everyday can be mother's day...I'll do my best.

I have the best mother in the world, and i love her dearly.

i'm a mummy's boy :D

biscuits dipped in coffee

the scent of coffee seems to be able to soothe me. it has a kind of therapeutic effect which will kinda calm me down n let me stop and smell the roses for a while. it's kinda bad though at the rate which i consume the beverage, i'll become a caffeine addict in no time. thank god it doesnt seem to affect my ability to go to sleep =3

having a mug of hot coffee in cold weather seems to make it's effect on me much more profound. I had my coffee abit differently today, rather than simply sipping and enjoying the scent and deliciously bitter taste of my cuppa, i dipped biscuits in it...arrowroot biscuits to be more exact and it was awesome...

the coffee made the biscuit softer...just the right mouthfeel if u dont dip it in too long, or else it'll get soggy. the outer portion of the biscuit also tasted like coffee, the scent and the taste...

last time when i was a kid, i used to observe my father during breakfast on sunday mornings or supper. he always dipped his biscuits in his hot milo or coffee. back then, i thought it was a gross way of eating. i mean, not only will u make the biscuit look awful, it'll spoil the taste of the drink! talk about being young and dumb eh...here i am enjoying this method of eating biscuits now. i wont be able to see him eat like that for some time now. those days of being a child...are sadly gone...but i look forward to having breakfast with dad again.

yep, i miss him allright.

dad's birthday is on may the 13th! coming soon~

minit-minit ke tengah malam

juz got the new linkin park album by the name minutes to midnight.

the verdict?

i lurve it!

it sounds so much different from hybrid theory and meteora, and fans are bashing them because of it. well then, it was all done in the name of 'growth' eyh...one man's meat can be another's poison, so we can expect a whole new fanbase for them after this album. =D


i reckon this album would appeal more towards fans of emo music.


fav: all the ballads and what i've done =3

Signal Fire - Snow Patrol

The perfect words never crossed my mind,
'cause there was nothing in there but you,
I felt every ounce of me screaming out,
But the sound was trapped deep in me,
All I wanted just spin right past me,
While I was rooted fast to the earth,
I could be stuck here for a thousand years,
Without your arms to drag me out,

There you are standing right in front of me (x2)
All this here falls away to leave me naked,
Hold me close cause I need you to guide me to safety

No I wont wait forever (x2)

In the confusion and the aftermath,
You are my signal fire,
The only resolution and the only joy,
Is the faint spark of forgiveness in your eyes,

There you are standing right in front of me (x2)
All this here falls away to leave me naked,
Hold me close cause I need you to guide me to safety,

There you are standing right in front of me (x2)
All this here falls away to leave me naked,
Hold me close cause I need you to guide me to safety,

No I wont wait forever

No I wont wait forever

No I wont wait forever


nice song....totally blew me off...sounds good played loud :D

Whistle For The Choir - The Fratellis

Well it's a big big city and it's always the same
Can never be too pretty tell me you your name
Is it out of line if I was to be bold and say "Would you be mine"?

Because I may be a beggar and you maybe the queen
I know I maybe on a downer am still ready to dream
Now it's 3 o'clock the time is just the time it takes for you to talk

So if you're lonely why'd you say your not lonely
Oh your a silly girl, I know I hurt it so
It's just like you to come
And go and know me no you don't even know me
Your so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye
A girl like you's just irresistible

Well it's a big big city and the lights are all out
But it's much as I can do you know to figure you out
And I must confess, my hearts in broken pieces
And my heads a mess
And it's 4 in the morning, and I'm walking along
Beside the ghost of every drinker here who has ever done wrong
And it's you, woo hoo
That's got me going crazy for the things you do

So if you're crazy I don't care you amaze me
Oh your a stupid girl, oh me, oh my, you talk
I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry

And only, a girl like you could be lonely
And it's a crying shame, if you would think the same
A boy like me's just irresistible

So if your lonely, why'd you say you're not lonely
Oh your a silly girl, I know I hurt it so
It's just like you to come and go
And know me, no you don't even know me
Your so sweet to try oh my, you caught my eye
A girl like you's just irresistible



the song currently stuck in my head...
my fav line would be
' Is it out of line if I was to be bold and say "Would you be mine"?'

Dropping by...

Back after a long hiatus...things have changed alot for me...so much that i would say my life has changed forever. Being away from home...feelings felt are just a mix of emotions both of sadness and joy. So much has happened since i left on the 8th of Feb, of which some may end up displayed here and some not.

Australia, such a different country....my journey begins here.

Malaysia, the place i still call home, shall truly be missed.

Family and friends...i shall be back.
