Let It Be - The Beatles


When I find myself in times of trouble, mother Mary comes to me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

And all the broken hearted people living in the world agree,
there will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see,
there will be an answer, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
there will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
there will be an answer, let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
there will be an answer, let it be

And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light, that shines on me,
shine until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music, mother Mary comes to me,
there will be no sorrow, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
there will be no sorrow, let it be
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
whisper words of wisdom, let it be

My First Dean's List Award

Some of us really anticipate this big day to come. Test season and final exam! It was the Dean List Award Ceremony. This is the time where all the extra hardwork and effort that we have put in to achieve excellent results paid off. Well, at least that is what our Head of Foundation Studies, Dr. Balbir said.

As stated in the date of every photo below, it was on 29 October 2008, at Chancellor Hall of Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP). It was kinda a grand event though. This was my first time to step onto the stage, and to receive the award, some more from our dear rector, Dr. Zainal Abidin Haji Hassim. Experience of a kind, I must say.



The event started with the singing of PETRONAS and UTP song. Followed by Prayer (Doa) Recitation and right after that, it was the time for Dr. Balbir to give out his speech. Only 6 students managed to stand out by achieving CGPA of 4.00 or famously known as four-flat. How I wish I can be one of them but somehow, from what I can see now, it is rather impossible. I am not complaining. No one to blame except myself.

Then, the award presentation began.

Row of Chemical Engineers
Waiting for about one hour before our turn

The event ended around 4.30pm with the singing of National Anthem. A slight refreshment outside the hall.

DEAN'S LIST RECOGNITION!

Love Songs

Just some sort of compilation of songs that keeps on running in and out of my mind since love season is in the air.

****************************************

When you have a feeling towards him or her:

Zai kao jin yi dian dian (come a little closer)
Jiu rang ni qian shou (I let you to hold my hand)
Zai yong gan yi dian dian (be a little braver)
Wo jiu gen ni zou (I will follow you)
Ni hai deng she mo (What are you waiting for)
Shi jian yi jing bu duo (No much time left)
Zai xia qu zhi hao zhi zuo peng you (If not, we will always be just friends)
.................
Bu guo san ge zi (it's only three words)
Bie you yu zhe mo jiu (don't hesitate for too long)
Zhi yao ni shuo chu kou ni jiu neng yong you wo (once you said it, I'm yours)


Lian Ren Wei Man by SHE


Maybe we're friends
Maybe we're more
Maybe it's just my imagination
But I see you stare just a little too long
And it makes me start to wonder
So baby call me crazy
But I think you feel it too
Maybe I, Maybe I
Just got to get next to you


Next to You by Jordin Sparks


****************************************

Now both of you are together:



Guy for the girl
You leave me breathless
You're everything good in my life
You leave me breathless
I still can't believe that you're mine
You just walk out of one of my dreams
So beautiful you are leaving me
Breathless......

Breathless by
Shayne Ward



Girl for the guy
I want to give you my breath, my strength, my will to be here
That's the least I can do,
Let me cater to you
Through the good
The bad
The ups and the downs
I'll still be here for you
Let me cater to you
.....................

Your heart
So pure your love shines through
The darkness we'll get through
So much of me is you
I want to cater to my man


Cater 2 U by Destiny Child


****************************************

You will always be there and are meant for each other:


Thank God I found you
I was lost without you
My every wish and every dream
Somehow became reality
When you brought the sunlight
Completed my whole life
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
My baby I'm so thankful
I found you


Thank God I Found You by Mariah Carey feat. 98 Degrees


I'll be your cloud up in the sky
I'll be your shoulder when you cry
I'll hear your voices when you call me
I am your angel
And when all hope is gone, I'm here
No matter how far you are, I'm near
It makes no difference who you are
I am your angel
I'm your angel


I'm Your Angel by Celine Dion feat. R. Kelly

When things seem to be not as you expected....


You're here
There's nothing I feel
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are saved in my heart and
my heart will go on
and on........

My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion




****************************************

When it is not possible to turn back........

I told myself that I would make some changes
But the more I change there's one thing that remains the same
I can't seem to shake ya
You seem to really have a hold on me
And everytime that we break up
We turn around and make up
This can't go on now
I gotta move on now
It's not the fact that I don't love you no more
But I gotta break this bad habit
Can't take his bad habit no more

Bad Habit by Kelly (Destiny Child)




****************************************

You are alone, all alone...


I belong to me
I don't belong to you
My heart is my possession
I'll be my own reflection
I belong to me
I'm one not half of two
And if you're gonna love me
You should know this baby
I belong to me


I Belong To Me by Jessica Simpson

So baby I will wait for you
Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do I'll wait for you



Wait For You by Elliot Yamin


They can take tomorrow and the plans we made
They can take the music that we'll never play
All the broken dreams
Take everything
Just take it away
But they can never have yesterday
They can take the future that we'll never know
They can take the places that we said we will go
All the broken dreams
Take everything
Just take it away
But they can never have yesterday

Yesterday by Leona Lewis

******************************************

When I saw you, I was afraid to meet you.

When I meet you, I was afraid to love you.

Now I love you, I am afraid to lose you.

If I really lose you, I will miss you!

To Mommy, and Terry

2 persons in my life are celebrating their big day today, 23 October.

************************************************
MOMMY

(Mommy and uncle)

Mommy, the closest person to me turned 37 this year. Pretty young, isn't she? To be having me, the 18-year-old son, which is the eldest among the five siblings. Back to her time, 19 is considered very matured already to get married compared to nowadays.

Among the five of us, I am the closest and always share everything with her and she will also share her stories with me. Sometimes we also have some sort of open-minded kind of conversation, if you know what I mean. As I told you, I am 18. Despite of the fact that I am always being scolded for my mischief and misbehave, that never change anything between us. Blood is definitely thicker than water, no matter what happens.

I still remember during the last semester, when she and daddy accompanied me for my registration, she was the one who helped to unpack all my luggage and settle up the stuff in my hostel room while I was still listening to a talk. When they about to leave me, mommy held my hand, and..... and........ mommy cried......... *sob* Next few days, she called me. It was a bit odd at first because I didn't hear anything from her before sobbing started fading in. She said she missed me, after seeing some of my stuff that were still left in the house. *sob again.....*

I feel so guilty that I have made her cried twice; once last year and another this year. Just recently actually, during my semester break back in June. I have no intention to hurt her feeling. It is just that sometimes I cannot control myself, my rebellious self where I would start to talk in rude tone to her. After I realised what I have done, the feeling was so awful as she was scolding me and at the same time, she was crying. The whole scene was so emotional and I myself was also shedding tears. Nevertheless, she forgave me in the end, twice as well. I have promised to change myself to be better because deep down in her heart, I know she still loves me and because of that, I don't want that to change because of the silly mistakes that I have done.

Mommy, I wonder if you would be reading this since we don't have internet connection at home but may be someday you will. Just want to say that I am sorry for every bad things that I have done for these 18 years that have hurt you. You were always be there to guide and punish me so that I can be a better me, as what I am today. Without your love, dedication, commitment and caring, I may not be here right now. I realise that I cannot be the "old" me again since I am not by your side as often as before. I promise I will take good care of myself and I won't let Mommy down because I know Mommy puts a big hope on me. No one can change "Baba" in Mommy's heart. I still need you, need you to teach more about this life. LOVE MOMMY ALWAYS. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOMMY! =)

**********************************

The another person is a newly-met friend of mine who comes from Seremban, Terry Chu.

We get to know each other via Facebook. To be more specific, it is through the popular application, My Heroes Ability (MHA). For those who have Facebook, for sure you will know what I am talking about. I still remember I was the first one to message him for saying thanks for buffing me (if I am telling you, it is actually "Thanks for sharing the exp...", will you get it?) Okay, some of you may get blur of what I am trying to say. I make it this way, I messaged him to say thank you. Hope that is clear enough. Don't ask me thanks for what as you will be more confused. Only me and him know. Haha.....

To think back again, I am so, so lucky to really to get to know him. If I didn't message him that day, I may not have the chance to meet this great guy. Somemore at that moment, I just have my Facebook account (in fact, I don't even know the existence of Facebook until I met Chriss. Grateful enough to meet Chriss, lucky enough to know Terry. Thank God I found them and to have them in my life!) About one week later, he replied and so, our friendship starts to blossom since then.

Even though we haven't met each other, we shared lots of things together. He shares his experience and I share mine. He seems to be never hesitating whenever I ask for him help. I really cannot thank him enough for what he did for me. All I can do is just to give him support and encouragement for whatever he does. We used to message each other via Facebook. Sometimes, we also chat in MSN. Since both of us have each other's number, sometimes we text too. There's one time after I gave him my number while we were chatting, he called me right after that. I was like so shocked, to call me at that particular instant. I wonder whether he was doing a miss call but anyway, I picked it up. And, so that was the first time we heard each other's voices as in real world. He didn't sound as I expected though (no offense, Terry!). Somehow, that call just brings us closer together in some ways.

I would say our frienship is built completely on trust since we never meet each other, yet. In fact, he is 5 years older than me and was a graduate in IT field. He is currently working with Ericson. At first, I would say our friendship was rather odd since he was way older than me since I don't have friends of his age. Even so, those will be my high school and university seniors. Nevertheless, in spite of difference of our ages, he always says that our friendship is magical and I really treasure this 5-months-old friendship. FRIENDS FOREVER. :)

So, today is his birthday. Just want to take this chance to thank him for everything and also wish him.....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TERRY. ^_^
