Giving a Chance to Loved Ones

I spent Sunday lepak-ing with my ex-roommate after going out for dinner. My ex-roommate and I go back a long time ago when we first started university and we were two awfully homesick girls discussing about pizza topping to stop feeling miserable. While I had graduated, she skipped one semester and now she's in her final semester.

'I don't know what's going to happen next,' she started, 'I don't know what I want to be.'
'Life's not an option. You don't choose what you want to be, you just grab whatever passes your way.' I blurted out.

I realized that was true.

When I finished final exam., I made plans to stay in JB until convocation and go back to Sarawak to work in one of the most established oil company as HR Executive or in its equivalent position.

That plan didn't materialize. I overdue my stay until today coz the company that I aimed for turned down my application. After my project ended (I was working as Research Assistant in my faculty), my cash ran low and in desperation, I just grabbed the first job opportunity that came my way. And stuck here until now.

I also planned to further my studies at my alma mater, but until now that plan is still pending (I hope it's pending, not cancelled). The faculty has revised the schedule so classes would be conducted during office hour. Attending classes during weekend is possible provided I'm willing to pay double the cost of normal classes. In the end, limited resources are holding me back. I'm not really sure whether I want to pursue HR anymore.

Life's not an option. You don't choose what you want to be. But you can create choice for others to make.
I'm not willing to pay extra for my own studies simply because my younger siblings' studies are more important than mine. One brother has just started college and my elder sister and I have decided to help finance his studies. We really want to support our brother and wish to see him become a successful town planner. As he's not eligible for study loans, we will be there to pay for his books, exams, rent, food and anything he needs.

Another brother will be starting university soon (I hope he'll get a place in university) and until he gets his financial assistance, he would also need our help.

Finally my sister who's in boarding school - I didn't get the chance to spoil her when she was small as I was busy with my own studies. She's always so sweet, and never asks for anything. However I was a young girl once, and I understand perfectly well a young girl's longings for pretty things, books, make ups, etc. Unlike me, I want her to be able to own the things that she longs for. I don't want her to feel the envy and disappointment of not being able to afford what other people can have, like how my sister and I felt a long time ago.

Maybe when they have succeeded to overcome life's obstacles, their sisters can think about their own lives' choices.

Sorry For Love (Celine Dion)



Forgive me for the things
That I never said to you
Forgive me for not knowing
The right words to say, to prove

That I will always be
Devoted to you and me
And if you can't feel that in my love
Then I'm sorry for not giving you enough

But I'm not sorry for my love
I'm not sorry for my touch
The way I made your hands
Tremble and my heart rush

I would do it all again
Wouldn't take back a thing, no
'Cause with you I've lived
A thousand lives in one

And I could never be
I could never be
Sorry for love.

Well, maybe there've been times
That I let you down
Looking back on all those moments
I know that I should have found

The best of me for you
And now I will promise to
And if you don't see that in my eyes
Then I'll be
Sorry for the rest of my life

But I'm not sorry for my love
I'm not sorry for my touch
The way I made your hands
Tremble and my heart rush

I would do it all again
Wouldn't take back a thing, no
Cause with you I've lived
A thousand lives in one

But I could never be
I could never be Sorry for love

And we all make mistakes
No matter how hard we try
But hearts can only break
When sorry comes all around

Lirik Lagu Babe (KRU)




Perasan tak muram air muka?
Eh...mungkin tidak kerana ku dah kau lupa
Jauh di mata....apatah lagi hati
Riuh tetap sunyi bila kau bersendiri
Oh patutlah lagu dah tak semerdu
Puputan bayu dah tak senyaman dulu
Ku pasti kerana tiada pelengkapnya
Ketiadaanmu dirasa.

Jangan serkap jarang hidup ku bahagia
Memang berat tak ku nafikannya
Walau cintamu rapuh dan keyakinan runtuh
Dengar kubicara.

Oh babe, ku masih menyintai
Oh babe, ku masih setia
Pilu...lara...hiba dijiwa
Kelabu di kalbuku
Oh babe, kumakin terseksa
Oh babe, kumakin terasa haru
Bisakan disembuh andainya kau disisiku
Oh babe ku masih perlukanmu

Sehari dua mungkin bolehku harung
Masuk ketiga berlewah kutermenung
Selepas seminggu fikiran bercelaru
Meruap-ruap bimbangku

Ke sana-sini terpinga tercari-cari
Petanda kau masih menyayangi
Walau cinta kau pudar, kan kuteruskan jua
Rontaku di jiwa.

-To past memories cherished. I love you.-

Chaotic Organized

Chaotic organized = berkecamuk tersusun. Kata2 nih paling sesuai menggambarkan keadaan mental dan fizikal aku la nih. Bila mental aku berkecamuk, aku akan menjadi orang yang paling suka berkemas dan menyusun persekitaran aku supaya aku letih dan berhenti berfikir.

Sabtu lepas, aku pindah ke bilik baru. 3 orang housemates dah pindah, jadi akhirnya ada bilik kosong untuk aku masuk. Memang lega, sebab selama hampir setahun, aku cuma tido kat ruang tamu.

Hampir setahun lepas grad. Cepatnya masa berlalu.

Aku beli kipas warna ungu n aku bercadang nak beli langsir warna biru supaya matching ngan cadar n comforter aku. Aku tak de katil (maklum la orang bujang) tapi masa aku dok kolej dulu aku beli carpet yang murah giler (under RM50), jadi nampak berseri sket bilik aku.

Hujung minggu dihabiskan ngan mengemas dan mengatur bilik aku. Biasalah aku. Bila fikiran berkecamuk, aku melepaskan geram dengan mengemas. Aku mengetuk, menyapu, mengemop, menyusun, membasuh dan mencuci segala macam benda arituh. Asal bersepah je, aku kemas. Asal kotor je, aku cuci. Asal berdebu, aku lap. Yang penting aku dapat mengalih perhatian daripada fikiran yg berkecamuk tuh.

It's a way to let out the pent-up energy so I wouldn't feel anything but exhaustion.

Bukan setakat bilik aku kemas, aku cuci toilet yg memang dah bersih. Aku berus dinding, lantai, sinki, toilet seat, toilet bowl dan pintu (pintu pun tak tinggal!) sampai semerbak bau dan putih melepak.

Lepas tu aku cuci baju yang sehelai dua dlm baldi. Then aku sapu rumah, mop lantai, cuci pinggan, nak bersihkan dapur tapi housemate dah tolong buat, susun kasut, susun kotak, buang sampah dsb. Last2, aku cuci motor kesayangan aku plak.

Tapi malam tu aku tetap tak boleh tido. Mengenangkannya.

More from me...

Aaaahhhh... Life feels great. Really greeeatttt.

My house is chaotic, my work never-ending, my company didn't keep their promise of giving us a raise after 6 months slaving away in hope of getting THAT raise (oh, I so hate it when people didn't keep their promises!), and someone is accusing me something.

OK, I've explained all but one. One and two tie with each other. If my company gave me the raise, I'll have enuff money to rent a house by myself. Moi apartement. Tout moi. Tak payah sakit hati bila someone 'forgot' to do house chores. Tak payah nak sound or remind anybody to do house chores. Tak payah makan hati bila balik keja penat2 tengok rumah tak bersapu.

The last part, ouch. That really hurts la. If only that person knew that un-sound accusations without valid proof, is the first blow that cracks any sort of relationship. Enough said.

... I better update my resume and get prepared to leave this place, leave this state and go back home. Hujan emas di negeri orang, lebih baik aku bergelar tuan di negeri sendiri. Hah!
