On the off chance of sounding like a mother...
Today was Haqeeme's THIRD day of school, and I am ready to report that he hasn't shed a tear at all. :) :D
Though, when he gets home he makes it a habit of knocking out on the couch. "(=.
Heh.
The real shock for me though... must have been the empty sounding house when he was gone through out the whole afternoon.
Doing my homework, with music blaring in the background during the afternoon without an interruption felt forgein to me. Like seriously, I half expected the door to open by itself and reveal this pompous lil' boy who just drags you away from work for a down time watching Power Rangers. Or even sit in your lap and scribble on your homewok while using your headphone to listen to the most classical musics, that you've just got to roll your eyes and tease him even if he can't retort back.
Weh. Look at me, looking back at the dear times when my brother would just shove open my bedroom door and bombard himself around like it was his own room.
"(=.=) No chance of that happening now, he's totally pooped out. Beyond pooped out. You can actually hear him snore and even see a frown pop out on his face in the middle of his slumber.
Makes you wonder what really happens in those Pre-K classes, heh?
You know... to make the most hyperactive boy I've ever met to fall asleep as soon as his head meets a soft landing?
Not that I'm complaining... I mean who would miss that absurdly stubborn ricochet of energy who wears you out by asking for dozens of piggy back rides and tons of jumping up and down while listening to his favourite music?
Err. Yea.
With that awkward thought, I gotta end this post.
Work calls for me. And I really need to shower :)

Hypocrite.
Well.. heylow blog of mine.
It's been a while hasn't it? Heh. Been busy, I guess. Anyhow...
Today, while I was out and about around Brunei, I saw something. I saw a family, sitting down around this table but they were all to busy with their technology gizmos to even bother talking or even eating the cold food in front of each of them.
To say the least, it re-emphasised my belief that people these days probably don't really value 'family' much. I mean, even I'm guilty of that. I don't go jumping in joy and converse a lot with my household people... but I should. I really should. I spend a lot of my time around work and school, that I don't really see the point of trying to converse with my family, cause I'm so darn tired.
But you know what the funny thing is...
I know I'd die for them in a heartbeat, but I'd rather stick my head into a book then actually ask them how was their day.
It still astounds me that I can still be shocked at the notion that I can be such a hypocrite at times.
To the point of disgust.

Guess.
Guess where I'm at.
Go on, guess where my over-bearing fantasy deluded mom brought us for New Year's celebration.
It's not that hard, just unbelievable. Honestly, I had no idea she even had a saving. I always knew she wanted some quality 'family' time. Yea. But here? I thought she was joking. Like seriously? HAHA Though I'm not complaining; it's not my money.
Soo... guessed where I'm at?
Here's a clue: it's an overpriced hotel.
Here's another clue: It has it's own cinema.
Okay the last clue:
Yup. I'm at THE empire. Right now. HAHA I'm in the lobby of the North Lagoon. No, seriously. and no, I'm not sharing my rooms with a dozen cousins. It's just me, my bro, my maid and Qeeme. One room, two nights, three days. Awesome. :)
Though it's kinda lousy that I have to go all the way down to the lobby just to get internet reception, the bed makes it all better. LIKE SERIOUSLY. My gosh. It totally envelopes you, and I swear it makes the most sore-est (is that even a word? HAHA) of backs feel better.
Wow. Look at me, gushing over a bed. :x
And don't let me get started on the food! Heh. All I can say is thank god, there was a package deal, at a good price lagi tu~~!
Anyways, this morning I woke up early. Is 4.30 early enough for you? Heh.
I watched the first sunrise of this year, and I felt... for the lack of adjectives.. I felt... awed.
Looking at the bright yellow orb of light begin to ascend to the heavens, a cold chilling wave of acknowledgment hit me. That thing was bigger than me, huge and more important than me. I mean, the sun gives us heat, light, even provides food for us. and what have I done?
Then it hit me, you know.
I felt... grateful.
How awesome is that? Way awesome. :)
Grateful for what? For everything. Cause If I wasn't such a stubborn child I wouldn't have stuck to E. Lit. If I wasn't such a proud figure, I'd have of course changed my subject choice ine form 4. If I wasn't so darn curious, then I'd never had figured out the answer I was looking for. If I was so open and more touchy feel-y, then I'd never had learned how to be.
Guess what I'm saying is...
I'm giving my cheers to 2009. It's been a real dash of fun, with it's rollercoaster rides of ups and downs. Of turmoils and bouncers. I'll never forget what happened. What was and what has.
and to 2010?
Bring it on.
