One Wish

I wish this

is in BC41, instead of this

Hmmm…

I Want P!nk !

Yes, it is my favourite-est colour but I’m not talking about the colour. I’m talking about P!nk, the singer. I wish she will come to Malaysia and do her concert tour here. I want to go to her concert. I know all her songs. I can sing along. I wish she will come to Malaysia and do her concert tour here and I want to go to her concert. Yea, I said that already.

I watched her I’m Not Dead Tour DVD the other day, and OMG, she is one helluva strong singer. Strong as in physically strong. And feminine at the same time. I WANT to be like that; strong and feminine. OK, now that is something I want to work on.

The Truly Loss

When I reached home after my Shape Run last night, a friend text-ed me saying that Yasmin Ahmad passed away last night. I thought it was a hoax because few people said the same thing early this week, when actually she was still in ICU. Then I called another friend, and she confirmed the news. I was in great shock. Deeply sad for the loss. Though there is no connection between herself and me but I’m connected with her films. And I think most of us do. She is the only Malaysian director whose movies I’ve never missed. Not once. Honest truth, her movies were the only Malaysian movies I didn’t mind watching them over and over again in the cinema.

In my life, I’ve had twice opportunities to actually speak with her. The 1st time was during GUBRA sneak preview. She was there with her crew during the preview and I caught her after the movie and asked her on the ending of GUBRA, which I didn’t quite understand the message. She smiled at me and said, “I leave it for you to imagine my dear. It can be anything.” The 2nd time was during her last movie, TALENTIME, for a very same reason – which I didn’t understand 1 scene from the movie (for those who had watched it, the scene was the strawberry scene). I was so lucky that she was there in the same cinema with me together with her crew. I caught her and asked the same question. The first thing she did was, she looked at me and said, “Now you looked familiar.” I told her I was the one who asked her about GUBRA ending few years back. She laughed upon hearing that explained to me what she wanted to tell in that scene. In a subtle way… I cannot believe that, TALENTIME was her last movie I’ve ever watched. And I cannot believe that it was her last movie! I feel extremely sad, not because I won’t be able to watch her movie again, but for the fact that we’ve lost a Malaysian who was so gifted in film-making. She had touched my life through her movies and I’ve never thought of saying this, but I will really miss her. May her soul rest in peace.

Al-Fatihah.

Friday Thought

A dear friend quoted this to me the other day, “When it rains it pours and there are two ways of meeting difficulties; either you alter the difficulties or you alter yourself to meet them.”

Sometimes you are just tired and you feel like giving up. Just when you are about to give up, people like this is the one who reminds you to keep on going. Another friend once said, we don’t stop when we are tired, we stop when we are done. Agreed.

Heard a news last night that someone I know committed suicide. It’s shocking to the point that I’m thinking (nonono, I don’t plan to kill myself), what is it so bad that he didn’t have any way out other than killing himself. What about his family and friends? Are they not there for him should he need a shoulder to cry on? I’ll never know the answer. All I know is I feel deeply sorry and sad for him. And at the same time, I’m grateful that I’ve the people that matter to me, always there for me come rain or shine.

People say, life is about making choices. We always have choices; be it variety or limited. And no matter what, the choice we chose will always for the best of us. I’ve choices. I chose. It’s decided. Now the only thing that will make me spiritually happy with my choice is the absence of doubt. Have no doubt!

Laters.

Things That I Really Wanna Do Now

Loads of things boggling in my mind. Right now this is what I really want to do:

1. Bring Cres to lunch/dinner once she’s back to her office. A lot of things to tell her. A LOT. It is spilling now.
2. Make myself comfortable with my new department and need to make few changes in my work style. Changes are good. Supposedly. Perhaps.
3. Need to speed things up since I had decided to start from scratch. Hmmm. Until something is up or happened, I will never know whether my decision is wise or the other way round. Opportunity cost applies.
4. Need to work on 1 personal thing before  December comes. I need luck!

Alright, I think that’s about it. Sounds feasible to me. Hee.

Pit-Stop Run

It was the 6th series for this year and counting.

When I did my warm-up on the field at DM this morning, my shins hurt badly. Yes, I only have myself to blame. I reckon it was due to the previous day’s killed-legs series. So couldn’t complain much about things I got myself into so willingly. Hee.

The moment I stopped and walked after 15mins of running (not for water station, mind you), I knew I won’t be running my usual non-stop run today, which was true because I stopped so many pits after that. Darn! Physically wasn’t tired just my legs didn’t agree with me today. Jojo and myself splitted right after the flagged off and she only appeared behind me at our last 3km to finishing line. Weeks before this run, I heard quite a lot of my gym friends registered for this but surprisingly, I didn’t see any of them along the way. Either they ran super fast or they didn’t turn up. Good thing was, I managed to cross the finishing line faster than I thought, so I guess the stops didn’t hurt. Hee.

No glitches for the whole process, lots of water station and luggage and goodie bag redemption process was so breeze. Kudos to the committee. They had done a great job! Need to get ready for my 7th. 7 is my favourite number; hope it will bring me luck! Heehee.
