Assalamualaikum. Sorry for the absence guys. Gosh! I ahve to make a personal apology to both my dearest band members and my cgmates. I am so sorry guys! I cannot join you guys for the upcoming gatherings. Not that I do not want to but I can't. NS and all. Wish I could have more personal time for myself. Gosh, miss the days when I will go to the library or that MacDonalds to study alone while listening to Siti Nurhaliza on my earpiece and wah, that is simply pleasurable! Actually, now I think that sudying is not a bad thing actually! Pretty cool!
Anyway, received another letter from NUS. It is regarding the application for change of course in 2008. Currently, I am reserved with a place in Civil Engineering, NUS and that course will take me 4 years to complete. By that time, I will be hmm...25? 26? Wah... No wonder, Singaporeans are getting married at a later age nowadays. Anyway, back to the topic. Before yesterday, I was actually still not sure if I should still stay in the faculty where a place has already been reserved for me or apply again to change the course that I am offered with. But I think things are getting clearer today. Yesterday, I attended a hang case at one construction site. The thing that I focussed on was not the dead body or the tongue that is sticking out but the construction site. Gosh! I cannot imagine myself working in that kind of place! No, no, no! My decision is up, I will apply for a change of course. To what course, I am still deciding! Haiz, got another decision to make now!

Assalamualaikum. Had a great day yesterday. It was Paya Lebar Fire Station's Family Day and had lots of fun with the Paramedics, Drivers, Firefighters as well with my fellow medics. It is rare that medics from various rotas meet together and yesterday, it happened when Rota 1, 3 and 4 medics celebrate Station 21 Family Day. The lucky draw session was the most happening. Encik Norizan never fail to make people laugh. Hahahaha, I respect this man. Had lots of food yesterday. Satay, rice, noodles, fish, chickens, cream puffs, puddings, cakes, fruits and best of all, the eclairs. I thought I wasn't going to enjoy it as much, as I was working the night before that. Straight after my duty was the Family Day. Tiring though but everyone make it a "happening" one!
Straight after the Family Day at 12.00p.m, headed home and reached home at around 1.15 p.m. Clean up and got ready to go out again with my dear Brooksians friends. Kenneth, Ismail, Cassandra and Joel. Had a KBOX session at Cineleisure. The last time I went to this place was with Ismail and Bashirah to watch Cicakman and people, that was before my enlistment. Anyway, had lost of fun during the KBOX session. We sang When You Believe, Say It Isnt So, Beautiful, Back at One, Listen, A New Day Has Come, GEMILANG, Unbreak My Heart, Inside Your Heaven, Mama Mia, Bohemian Rhapsody, Only Human OST One Litre of Tears and bla bla bla. One song that caught my attention was Bubbly by Colby Calliat. Nice song, very bouncy and "sway". After that we went to have dinner at Lucky Plaza, Ayam Penyet Ria. The Es Chendol is pretty different from the local ones and also the Ayam Penyet is nice apart from the ultra-spicy Sambal. Took the MRT and took one whole round of bus 812 home with Kenneth. We continue to chat till 12.00a.m. Wha lots of catching up done. Lots of secrets revealed too! Hehehhe... Looking forward to another session of this whole thing! Photos are one the way. Now, am very tired... 36 hours without sleep!
Thank you so much to the four of them for such a great outing yesterday and special thank you to Ismail, Monisha, Bashirah, Maslyn and Fazlan for the birthday present from Domanchi. Love it so much!
Oh ya! Had a few coincidence yesterday. Farhana, Eileen and Haoren. I last met Farhana during the 'O' levels results released which was 3 years ago, Eileen during my last band practice which was 4 years ago and Haoren was during the release of 'A' level results and that is a year ago.
Anyway, she is getting prettier!

Assalamualaikum. Hi Guys! Works officially stacked up last week. My brain has been working again, remebering all the theories and formulae. Hahahaha... Thought that NS will be a goodd break for all that but I am glad that it wasn't. I think if that happens, my brain will be rusty by the time I enrol in the university in 2009. Stack of books greet me on evevry off days of mine. Well, that's great I think!
Anyway, many people are speculating about Datin Seri Siti Nurhaliza's latest image after performing her pilgrimage last month. Well here it is! Tadaaa! I am happy that there are indeed changes in her image. I am glad and proud of her. At the age of 29, she is already thinking about covering up unlike some other OLD hack stars who are, well not covering up but rather opening up. Shameful man!

Assalamualaikum. Alhamdulillah sudah 20 tahun jantung ini berdenyut. Entah berapa saat, detik, minit, jam, bulan, tahun, dekad lagikah ia akan terus berdegup. Saya berserah dan hanya mampu bersiap sedia untuk bertemu dengan saat terakhir jantung ini bermaya. Takut, memang benar menakutkan, tapi kadang-kadang saya terlupa. Ishh, bagaimana untuk terus sedar akan betapa dekatnya saya dengan hari Perhitungan?
Pernah seorang teman memberitahu saya bahawa dia benci diingatkan hari lahirnya kerana suatu kenyataan Rasulullah saw. Baginda pernah bersabda bahawa beliau juga tidak suka diingatkan akan Hari Lahirnya kerana ia mengingatkan betapa pedih dan sakitnya ibunya melahirkannya. Benar, tetapi saya tidak membencinya samasekali bahkan ia mengingatkan saya untuk lebih berjasa kepada ibu saya yang menanggung kesakitan melahirkan saya dan akan terus berusaha untuk membuat ibu saya bersyukur kerana telah melahirkan saya dan akan tiada segamit pun penyesalan yang dirasakan. InsyaAllah.
Apa pun, saya bersyukur kerana terus diberi hidayah dan peluang untuk terus bertaubat kepadanya.
Gersang Bumi Tanpa Hujan, Gersang Minda Tanpa Ilmu,
Gersang Hati Tanpa Iman, Gersang Jiwa Tanpa Amal.

Assalamualaikum. Salam sejahtera dan Selamat tahun baru, 2008! Sebuah lembaran baru telah terbuka tirainya. Penuh visi, resolusi dan impian untuk direalisasi. Apa pun, kita tidak patut lupa mahupun tinggalkan kenangan tahun 2007 bertempiaran di awangan kesepian tidak berhaluan. Perlu dipetik, diracik, ditarik segala pelajaran mahupun pengetahun yang berbuah sepanjang tahun lalu. Memang sudah menjadi suatu 'cliche' apabila seseorang mengatakan bahawa kita perlu lupakan yang sudah berlalu. Namun, perlu kita amati yang setiap kejadian, petunjuk yang diberikan bukanlah suatu lakonan arahan Tuhan semata, bahkan ianya adalah penggerak hebat buat kita mengorak langkah yang seterusnya.
Hari demi hari berlalu, fantasi duniawi membuat kita lupa yang hari Penentuan semakin tiba memanggil kita. Saya juga tidak terkecuali. Namun, saya sesal, kesal yang teramat apabila melihat kembali sepanjang tahun yang sudah. Kosong, tanpa erti. Perkhidmatan negara telah membuat saya lalai. Ketiadaan masa untuk berterima kasih kepadaNya telah membuat saya lalai, terus dibuai dodoian Syaitan. Sesungguhnya dapat diputarkan masa, ingin saya sedarkan setiap kealpaan dan memekakkan telinga dari setiap bisikan si pemusnah anak Adam. Namun, ianya diluar kekuatan, kebolehan, kemampuan saya.
Saya kini bersyukur kerana diberi peluang oleh Dia untuk melayari kehidupan di dunia ini buat yang ke-20 tahun. Telah dua dekad saya di dunia ini, tetapi apa yang telah saya lakukan untuk menunjukkan rasa syukur kepada Dia, sang Pencipta? Saya kesal. Ini bukan suatu ratapan, tetapi suatu penyesalan. Ingin saya perbetulkan mana yang salah, perluruskan mana yang tidak berarah, perhaluskan mana yang hambar serta peringatkan mana yang lupa.
Orang kata, "How you start your new year is how you going to spend the rest of the year!" Entah benar entah tidak tapi mengapa tidak kita mulakannya dengan cara yang baik. Let start it right, people. Telah banyak nikmat yang saya kecapi tapi semakin banyak saya perolehi, semakin tenggelam saya dalam lembah yang menjahanamkan. Wahai teman, jadilah cermin yang benar bagiku. Tegur dan peringatkanlah diriku ini agar tidak semakin jauh aku sesat dalam kegelutan dunia yang hanya membinasakan. Marilah kita saling mengingatkan satu sama lain.
