Nay, you're not sunlight.. you're moonlight.

Maybe I’ve got life all wrong. All these while I have been walking through life on my hands and I didn’t realize everyone else is walking on their feet! (there is a point, trust me). Life is too precious and I should appreciate it like how the drought appreciates the rain, or the streets are thankful to the lamp posts, or the ants grateful to sloppy humans for the crumbs. Life should be a series of appreciation and gratitude towards what we have and not what is absent from our hands, or if in m & m’s case, from your mouth (since hands are a no-no in the chocolate world).  

I mean, let’s face it. I’ve got pretty much all that I need in this world. I’m healthy, obese, but healthy. I’m not in my dream school but I do get to study psychology! Some friends of my friends get to study in their dream school but not their dream field of interest. So hey, I’m darn lucky. I don’t have a love life, so my heart’s all dandy and not enlarged nor is it torn (don’t mistake this for aspirations to be a spinster. God help me). Hmm what else. I’ve got loyal friends, even though I’m not their bestfriend, they’re still mine. My family, gosh, they’re survivors of Bastamania! They should write it in their resume, “I survived bastamania” cos no one handles my shit (pardon my French) as well as they do. what more could you want when you're surrounded by people who share your favourite pastime: goofing around. 

I used to think that I’ve got nothing to lose, but now I know…I’ve got everything to lose. Everything matters. I feel good. Isn’t it fantawesome to walk on your feet? :)

 

 

 

Being in school is like being in a relationship. One minute you’re aww-ing, the next you’re poking your eye with a needle.

i always go "awww" and get all sentimental when i ready your entries. haha and i realise why now. because we've been through roughly the saaaaameee shit (haha copy the french pun :p) - a-levelssss; STILL not in local uni blabla :p.

of course ah i think it'll 'haunt' us as long as we let it do so, so for now we should really just focus on the ni'mats we HAVE! and that'll make us happy + better muslims insyaAllah.

and anyway you have an advantage over me, YOU CAN DRIVE (plus there's the awesome talking car)!

p.s: just to remind u, my version's AWESTIC k hahhahahahahahahaa

"Life should be a series of appreciation and gratitude towards what we have and not what is absent from our hands"

True, true! Though for me, it's sometimes sooo hard to live up to that.

Take care!
