Blogs and social media are sites used to be visible through the internet. They show 'the-curated-version' of me, of what I want people to see. One thing for sure; I am not nice. Definitely not alwa...

Along with my previous supervisor,...

Books : January List

1. Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami I read IQ84 last year, took 2 months to finish reading the thick book. I am really curious about Asian Literature so I want to know more about these writings, Norwegian Wood was listed in my birthday wish list as well. I didn't regret my choice. I love the direct and blunt type of language Haruki used in the book. It almost felt like reading haiku;...

This Week's Findings 03

Excerpt 02 : Dance Dance Dance

“As time goes on, you’ll understand. What lasts, lasts; what doesn’t, doesn’t. Time solves most things. And what time can’t solve, you have to solve yourself. Is that too much to ask?” — from Dance Dance Dance by Haruki Murakami Like Sofia Coppola, Haruki shows us how lonely he is from his works.

Little Things 110 : Silence

I realized that everyone is flawed. And we hold onto other people around us to stand.  We become visible and might as well belonged.  I'm tired of telling people that the loneliness will always be there, a part of you. Because that missing part is not yours, and all your life, you'll keep on searching, trying to fill in the emptiness with things.  You see, that missing part...

Little Things 109 : Hibernation

  I've started doodling again. This is the most exciting moment this month, other than my birthday celebration. I've started doodling again and running to catch-up the pace. The energy that has been sleeping for months, the daunting thoughts of looking at white empty pages. I'm filling up pages now, trying to find any time that I could use. Alhamdulillah.   Listened to talks...

Little Things 108 : Lunch Session 2

"Why are you going to lunch alone? Where is the others?", my supervisor asked. "Oh, they went down already, I'll tapau something". *   The liberty of choosing where I'm going for lunch, what to do while eating, my silence, writing & doodling moments, and the extra free time. Mostly, the liberty of being totally in control with my surrounding. Social activities exhaust...

Little Thing 107 : Busy

"Kita busy sangat, sampai kita jadi lalai kan?", my mom said. "Eh, kalau Tuhan tanak kita busy, dah lama Dia kasi duit banyak2. Jadi kita tak payah busy kerja." "Eh apa cakap macam tu, tak baik!",  and so my mom scolded me for another "cakap main lepas" short session. *   1. When I am busy, I remember God the most. Despite the time spent for works and time sacrificed to gain...

Little Things 106 : Lunch Session

  I noticed that if I can't do gossip, I'll be having a hard time mixing with the girls.   It's like your social status depends on how many stories you can talk about especially the one about other people. I don't care much about other people's private life - that leads to = nothing much to tell. I don't read gossip sites or newspapers or even follow celebrities' Instagram....

Little Stories 68 : Breakfast

  Looking at the second book I was holding while choosing my breakfast in front of the office, the man said :   "I want to send my younger brother to learn English, with you. I'm serious.", this was the second time he asked me that.   "Sure, sure."   "Okay, I need your phone number please".   * Nice move, bro....

Little Stories 67 : Cruel Morning Thoughts

"If you found out that you can't get pregnant, what will you do?", someone asked. "Then I think I'll take few years more before I'll get married. The main reason I plan to get married in my 20s is to have children", I answered. *  But if I can't get pregnant, I'll be devastated. And probably signing up to be all my close friend's babysitter. And I'll cry. So many times until I can accept...

Little Things 105 : Curse & Blessing

I saw my life in pictures since 2009 from my own Instagram account. Kept scrolling those line of pictures until the very end when pixelated pictures were taken by previous lost iPod touch. So many things happened. So many moments and all I saw were just random memories ended with tragedies.  I remember vividly every year's December.  Big things always happen during my final month...
