Happy 20th, Old Friend

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Assalamu'alaikum, everyone!!

Really sorry about the 2-week hiatus.  The past few weeks, college has been hectic to say the least.  Got through most of it with some help from friends.  So lucky.  Hehe..

Well, it's 12 a.m already here in Malaysia and already the 26th of January.  But a very close friend of mine is still celebrating her birthday in Egypt since it's 6 hours late there.

Amira is a really good friend of mine since we met at MRSM KK during our high school days.  We have our moments.  Quirky, awkward, funny, whacky moments.  She's one of those people who can annoy you, constantly.  But somehow you'll forget about it.  Last year, I brought her to the Simple Plan concert at KL Live as her b'day present.  You guys can go HERE to see the post.  Got some pictures and what not in it.  I'm not really a Simple Plan fan but she said she loved the present and the show and everything.  So I'd say it was worth it.  Haha!!

Since she's on another land now, all I could do was this.....................

I made this at 12 something a.m yesterday.  I was doing my assignments too.  Haha!!  I think she was a bit stunned by me doing this judging by the way she commented on her FB page where I posted this picture.  I do these kind of things to a lot of my old friends.  To me, only the thought counts.

Anyway, happy 20th birthday, Amira!  May Allah bless you and give you a long and happy life.  AMIIIIN.. In Sya-Allah.

Well, it's late.  Gotta hit the sack.

See you guys on the flip side!!

P.S: Happy 20th also to Nazrien.  Another friend of mine from MRSM KK :-)

Assalamu'alaikum, peeps!!

Alhamdulillah.  After a long wait, I finally got it!!

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus!!  Yeah!!  Haha!!  This is my first ever touch-screen phone so I'm still getting use to all the apps.

I'm off to explore this little thinga-ma jig.

See you guys on the flip side!!

P.S: Going back to KSJ in the afternoon T___T"

Rocking Out All Night Long!

In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful.

Assalamu'alaikum, everyone!!

We all have obsessions.  Some people obsess over food.  Some over sports.  And some over stuff that don't even make any damn sense.  I ain't no frog under a coconut shell because I got my own obsessions too.  Mine, ladies and gentleman, is music.........

I love music, man.  That's why being an audio engineer is a dream of mine among other dreams of course.  There's something about the melody of a song or even a guitar solo of an awesome rock song that hypes me up.  I got some favourite bands and artists of mine as I'm sure you guys have yours.  Therefore these are mine........

Yeah, man.  I've been listening to We The Kings songs since I was in primary school.  And their 'Skyway Avenue' song is one of the first songs that I can play from start to finish.  I heard and read that the band's working on another album.  All of their songs rock.  I love Travis's hair.  His crazy lion mane.

No other frontman in a band has hair as crazy as his.  Haha!!  Minus the hair colour, I sure hope my hair will be like that one day.  Bottom line, WTK is my fav band ever!

Now, another band I like is....

All Time Low released their latest album, Don't Panic, last October and yet I haven't found it yet in Malaysia.  One word to describe the feeling

BOLLOCKS!!

Anyway, I've been playing their songs a lot right now.  Both on my laptop on on the guitar.  Their an awesome band to let yourself loose.....

I'm a fan of this guy too......

Heard brother Maher Zain's song for the first time when I was in F4.  His lyrics just hit you at the heart.  You know what I mean?  Even though I think his first album is better than his second and latest one, I just love the fact that I have another way to make me realize I'm another caliph in this world.

Ok, I've been yapping about this particular artist to almost everyone I know and also in my blog here.  She's none other thaaaannn....

*Screams like a crazy fan-girl*

LINDSEY STIRLING!!!  XDDDDD

*Melts into the carpet*

Haha!!  She's a famous YouTube artist who got her break last year and went touring the world.  Her self-titled album was released last September and I've yet to find hers.  Clearly, I've a bit of rotten luck when it comes to finding these CDs.  You wanna know how obsessed I am?

Here's my screensaver a couple of months back.  Hehe..

:-3

She plays the violin, she dances, she sings.  Haaaa..

*Melts some more*

I can't say this enough.  I just love music.  Listening to it, playing it.  I've had my fair share of performances myself.  So that's why I love it.

Yeah, I play the guitar.  And some drums too but I'd rather be playing the guitar.  Most of the time I was the lead guitarist so I'm telling you.  It...feels..GOOOOOD.  People cheering you on, screaming your name when you do guitar solos.  The only thing that hasn't happened yet is stage dives.  Both from the band AND the crowd.  Hey, maybe it might happen, right?  Haha!!

Which reminds me, I need to re-string my guitar tomorrow.  Well, stay awesome, people!!

See you guys on the flip side!

P.S: This is my 200th post!!  :-D

Always Look On the Bright Side of Life

In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful.

Assalamu'alaikum, everybody!!

You know, you can see a lot of things in tons of different views.  Most of the times, you just have to see those things as a glass half-full.  Try to always see the silver lining of things even through a rough day.

I just love looking at crazy pictures.  Haha!!  Here are some.....

Haha!!  That's a 'kung fu hamster' terrorizing Slovakia.  Don't believe me? Go HERE.

Ok.  How about this one??

I don't think they have this in Malaysia yet.  Hehe...

;-)

This next one is one of my favourites.  I personally took this picture when I went on my Europe trip last year in Paris.

Mind you, I did not do anything to this picture.  It's the same as the way I took it.  Haha!!

You see?  Some things are worth laughing.  I learnt not to take life too seriously.  It doesn't mean that I'll just joke around and heckle at everything.  All I'm saying is that we have those certain moments where we should know the condition of a situation.  Think about it.  Aye?

;-)

See you guys on the flip side!!

P.S: Next week's gonna be a tough week for me.  T____T"
