Faceless Hero
You're the balm that sooth my faze,
Your voice remains a mystery,
Your messages soothes me,
I never knew you,
But the thoughts of you calms me,
Simple words mean so much,
Daily or weekly,
The feeling would be the same,
Moments of distrust gone to smoke,
You're not here,
But you're close,
One step at a time,
Would be for the best or for worst?
Content,
To be where we are,
My hero without a face.
ps: I'm writing poetry again, yikes x_x

Cinta Ialah...
I actually managed to drag my uncle and aunt to the movie, along with my cousin Irra of course. We went straight after I finished my work - though the movie started at 8.00pm. Parking was as always, hard at the City Square area but we managed to squeeze into a tight spot at the Public Bank area.
The cinematography was good. Overall on the storyline, some part are quite uncomfortable some are poignantly tear-jerking and some are just downright cheesy. If I cried once during a movie or drama you could bet that I would watch it again and again. But then... I think I lost count on how much I actually did so I'd say probably give the movie just another one round when the VCD is out, only to accompany my mom. It would be good if they inject a little bit more of humour part so it would be a wee bit brighter other than the short crack lyric by Dhani's friend by the roadside. Not to say that I say I like it to be a humourous movie. It's just that a little bit addition of it would be nice. Anyway that's just my opinion ^_^

Rurouni Kenshin
Kagen no Tsuki (Descending of Moon)...
I've seen it before and I love it since it was kinda Rurouni Kenshin-ish a.k.a Samurai X. It is one of my all time favourite manga - got me even buying the whole collection at a time. We were having a discussion in MIRC once about who we want to see playing the characters in Rurouni Kenshin. Wenna was dead set on having Jun as Kenshin. Dun relented since she wants Ohno to be Soujiro - the heartless but always smiling assassin. Sho as Sanosuke (if i get it right.. or was it Aiba and that Toma be Aoshi?) and Nino since he looks bratty, he'd be Yahiko. Hajime Saito would be played by none other than Odagiri Joe - he kicks ass as Hajime Saito in Shinsengumi.
Though... after watching the video, I think Koichi might fit the bill, hehehehe. Well, take a look for yourself :D

Missing You....
Since 13 years old, I lived among a group of friends - big groups of friends that shared priceless memories. As we aged, I realized that the big groups that I used to live with becomes smaller. We move away in pursuit of our dreams, our own life, families, responsibilities. No one is able to stay put in the same age for more than the allocated time.
I miss playing volleyball & netball with my friends. I miss the jukebox-sing-your-heart-out at the studio and dormitory. I miss making misfit in class - falling asleep more likely than anything else. I miss the daily-2-hours-sleeping-in-the-studio at night time with fellow buddies making make-shift bed out of chairs & tables and even some slept on the torn up soft board as a mat on the floor (that would be Miza and I ^_^;). I miss playing guitar with Man & Azhar. I miss the 3am kedai mamak supper. I miss the late night maggi mee in the dormitory with the kettle that I managed to smuggle in to the hostel. I miss having to stash my walkman from the prefects knowledge.
I found this video recorded by Ije during our final year in one of my old back-up CDs (and since not many read this blog, I feel safe posting it here). The song title... I forgot. This is the song that Azhar and I performed during our Malam Inderaloka - Final Year Dinner. Written by Azhar, sung by Azhar and I (which I actually forgot a line during the performance and made my own lyric, which of course made Azhar both peeved and relieved at the same time for the quick make up). Just in case you heard it, he made me sing with low tone Pearl-Jam-ish way, huhuhu. Oh and this was when I was 78 kg, thee hee hee.
The memories will still remain..."

Notes
What do I think about it? I love it despite what others said about the movie not respecting the original plot whatsoever but the CG character like Ryuk sure needs a polish up. If Rem is going to make an appearance in the Death Note 2... better not say anything about it first. Now that I have read the manga, I'd say Light is far more evil in the movie. The plot is faster and let me just say that having Light as a law student in the movie makes him more powerful in a way than the Light as a high school student. He's even more darker and frightening. Mello and Near is not in the movie (I wonder if they would make an appearance in the next). As much as it was in the manga... I don't like Misa's (bllergh) character that much. Death Note 2 hurry up!!!!
Gym starts next week, time to lose!!!!!
Hellooooo Clark Hatch ^_^

Paluan Hujan ^-^;
Anyway, I reached Kota Tinggi on a Sunday morning since my uncle, Pak Din needed someone to drive his family to the wedding because of his accident. I definitely love the thought of driving his Limited Edition Wira, hehehehe. Earlier before, on Saturday as I was about to hang my clothes at the door of Irra's room I was dumbstruck. My clothes were actually the same shade of purple of the door and the wrapping paper for the presents from them - uwaaaah. Even took a picture for the humour of it. I was thinking that it won't be much of a problem unless the wedding was held for that particular cousin at that same particular house.
I was wrong.
As I reached at the wedding venue in Kota Tinggi again I was dumbstruck. No one told me that the whole theme was going to be PURPLE!!!!!!
*Sighs*
Purple theme aside, the crowd was adding up by afternoon and by Zohor, Chah was being surrounded by 3 mak andams, being our cousins of course - Irra, Ana & Ayiet armed with their bags full of cosmetics and stuff. If Dayah was there, I bet that it would be explosive ^_^; It was a havoc - a clash of thoughts between 4 person. It was amusing at one glance. Ana was saying the colour was not enough, Ayiet was saying Chah's eyes needed some light colours, Irra was saying there's something not enough and Chah was protesting that the colour was too bold. Since I don't even have a clue to even apply eyeshadow or the importance of the face foundation, I left the bride's & groom's room for the preparation of the banquet table. Suhaina, my ex-high school classmate was present but at that moment I was kind of tied up checking the food & plate for the main dining table.
The groom's entourage reached there kind of 30 minutes early but it was fine since nearly all the food was in place. I would say that if they reached on time, they might be drenched in rain.
As always, every wedding especially for close knit families are tiring as the day ends but I enjoyed every minute of it. It was when all of us would get together and do our best to make the wedding a success or at least make a huge havoc out of it, hehehe.

Flags Of Our Fathers & Letters From Iwojima
The latest trailer for Letter's from Iwojima was out and everyone in the forum & blogs were spazzing about it. Of course since our prized prankster Nino was in it ^_^
Synopsis wise these 2 movies are actually about 1 battle from 2 point of views. Flags Of Our Fathers was the war from the American's view while Letters From Iwojima was from the Japanese. Clint Eastwood directed these 2 movies and to make it even better, he produced these movies along with Steven Spielberg XD
Darn Eastwood is just so good in making people wait in anticipation. Nino was filming the movie in May got back in June (or was it July?) and now it's already November. Flags of our Fathers was released in October, followed by LFW which is going to be released in December. Looking at the cinema schedule in Malaysia... Flags will be released in February 06. Gila. Wonder when Letters frm Iwojima would be released here - if it is going to be shown here. But then I don't mind that much as long as the cinemas in Singapore would show it (^_^);
Flags of Our Father & Letters From Iwojima Combo Trailer
Letters From Iwojima Trailer
I've shown A'an the trailer - well actually baiting him with it since he's a war movie junkie and I must say that he was very impressed that he started to promote the movie to his friends who were online XD
Somehow I know I am having a bit of trouble adjusting my view seeing Nino as a father o.0
I've said it before but I am saying this again - he already found the fountain of youth. Looking at his chibi pictures, there weren't any different in how he looked like before and now - hairstyles aside that is.
Wey Gundek Nino, Kachang kakkoi ne~~~

4th Day
Went off to Singapore with Dayah, her beau and his cousin today.
While they were in the shopping frenzy, I went to my normal spot - Kinokuniya, HMV & MISE... but much to my irritation MISE was closed, grahhhhhhhh. It was supposed to be open everyday *harrumph*. Called Mimit. Too bad there were not enough time to go and beraya at her house.
Gomennasai, Mit m(_ _)m
Managed to get my hands on December issue of Popolo which features Arashi... in bed with red coverlet (#_#)
I don't have a scanner so all the credit goes to fybabe.

3rd Raya
At the end of the day I accompanied Dayah to the hair dresser for her regular hair-dressing session. It was kind of sudden, though I decided to cut my hair. The hair that I left uncut for more than 2 years. Melancholic or sad when I got the hair cut? Not that much but I did bring some of it back home. Sayang beb.
Well that was just some portion of my hair but what was being cut was actually longer than that. Now I felt like my head is few pounds lighter (^_^)V

Selamat Hari Raya
Selamaaat Hari Rayaaaaaaaa
Hari untuk kita bersukariaaaaaaa
Since I was at my sister's mercy to get the kain of the baju kurung done... I ended up still sewing the hook by the time our first visitor came (-_-); I would say the morning was quite a havoc. Mak was ironing my abah's clothes, my sister was in charge of getting the food for the mosque ready and I was put in charge of cooking the only thing left in the menu - chicken in soy sauce with sambal goreng. Pushed my sister to finish off my kain (since I dunno how) if she wants me to send the food to the neighbours and finally, my baju raya was done in at 10am, huhuhu.
First off, to my atuk sedare's house in Kangkar Pulai and then to my uncle's house in Skudai Baru just in time as the rain pours down like cats and dogs. Everyone was soaked wet so there we waited for the clothes in the dryer to dry off before we could go anywhere at all. I suppose, going to Pak Din's house was a grest idea since not long after 'Bawang Merah Bawang Putih' ended on TV my other uncle arrived with his family and sometime later another one reached there. Now that is just the perfect time to get our family picture done - not that the whole 10 families could be there at once, 4 is just okay.
I couldn't breathe when the visitations ends. My stomach was already in a havoc - too much ketupat and rendang on the first day of raya is already too much. Not to mention with the additional cheese spaghetti at the end of the tourage at Pak Mi's house, I was near to explode which proven to be accurate since I had to keep on waking up in the middle of the night for my toilet sessions. Penat, huhuhu.
Selamat Hari Raya everyone!!!

Drag drag drag....
- Sew the baju raya and get it done before 1st Syawal.
- Bake cookies and some cake - have to be done a day before raya.
- Clean up the house.
- Scrub all the grime and dirt from my car.
- Hunt for RM1 or RM5.
Since my current site is at Taman Delima - next to Taman Daya and near to Jusco Tebrau, I set off to find some baking ingredients that my mak passed me in the morning. It turned out to be a headache since my mak did not specify how much is a box of cornflakes that we need - jumbo size? normal size? small? or how many gram of butter that she wanted me to get... 10 blocks of 500g butter or 10 blocks of 250g butter? Aisehmen... I guess if it was the age before handphone existed, I might end up buying too much of everything ^_^;
My feet were killing me and my stomach was growling. After dispensing the groceries to my car, I head back, in quest for food. Since I watched Arashi no shukudai-kun in the morning with them eating tako tentacles tempura, my tummy was craving for Japanese food. Went to Sushi King and honestly it was weird eating alone during breaking fast since everyone came with friends and family. I guess it would be normal if it's lunch time but then again, what do I care I was just hungry. While waiting for my beef yakiniku set to come, went to kacau Dee a bit through smses (gomenne Dee, tak beli Nana or sekai no chuushin sebab ternampak Tsubasa Chronicles movie, hehehe).
Oh and before that, went to Harris again and My Boss My Hero has arrived. I chose to skip the boxset since I already choked with laughter reading the synopsis at the back of the boxset. It went like, not that accurate lah but more or less - 'Sakaki Makio adalah seorang pengurus (or was it pengarah?) kumpulan "Kanto Sharp Fang" bla bla bla yang telah dipaksa ke sekolah tinggi kerana menggagalkan perjanjian bernilai 27 billion'. Pengurus kumpulan? It would be easier if they put 'waris kumpulan yakuza Kanto Sharp Fang' now won't it?. 100% ayat skema, huhuhu.
I suddenly developed a very strong urge to listen all NewS songs - esp Cherish, Hadashi No Cinderella Boy and Sayaendo (how many groups could sing a song titled grean peas without sounding funny? LOL). Well I actually cleaned the whole CPU off of NewS and KATTUN (erk!) stuff thinking I wouldn't want to hear them again, I was wrong. Good thing I saved those songs on Aidah's PC so nothing's lost... well maybe I have to ask for anyone to upload I.ZA.NA.I.ZU.KI for me, huhuhu. I'd probably have to blame Tegoshi for it since he was in My Boss My Hero. Then again I might have to blame Johnny for it since he put Nagase & Tegoshi in it XD.
Quoting comments from Mimit's LJ about Jin's sudden 'Off-Time' from KT... KATTUN loses their A, which cut it short to KTTUN... reshuffle again ... you might get KNTUT XD
Tomorrow's the last day at work before raya, yatta!!!!
