"a day on weekend...a guitar and a poem"

“Life and it’s test”

We are here in this world for a test,

Good and evil was created,

For a test,

What you choose,

Is your choice and liability,

But remember,

In the end,

You have to be back where you belong

Without any choices given,

In life,

Always something to begin with,

And something to end,

But your faith,
Always remain.

"a butterfly..."

Angel

Is the greatest gift

Always by your side

Always there when you look back

I choose butterfly

To watch over me

From hideous caterpillar

Becoming astounding butterfly

You are unique

In your own way

But then,

You are a butterfly

You have your wings

And will always flyaway

When butterfly flyaway

Will you ever coming back?

"please...let butterfly be my angel"

I woke up this morning feeling kind of blue
and I stumbled out of bed

and dragged my feet across the room

Right outside my front door was a rose

and a note that said 'Somebody Loves You'

But out on the street it starts to pour

and before I get soaking wet,

A total stranger runs to give me

the jacket off his back

I turn around to thank him

But he waves me with a smile

I can hardly believe my eyes

He puts on a halo and starts to fly

Take a look at the ordinary

Don't need to look at Paradise

You could be next to

an angel in disguise

I met a good friend for lunch

and we had a delicious meal

But I forgot to bring my wallet

I felt like an imbecile

But she was sweet, she gave me a treat and

Bought me a chicken sandwich

To take home for tea

But out on the street with nothing to eat

A man and his shopping cart go

Traveling to places,

Collecting social graces

I give him my sandwich

and we chatter for a while

I see a rainbow wash over his eyes

He gives me his halo and

I start to fly

Take a look at the ordinary

Don't need to look for Paradise

You could be next to an angel in disguise

Don't try to hide away from me

I know you're by my side

Take a look at the ordinary

Don't need to look for Paradise

You could be next to

an angel in disguise

Everyday can be legendary

Every minute, an endless surprise

You could be the next angel in disguise

I woke up this morning

Feeling kind of new

"why not bookplex..."

well, i do love architecture, music, photography and everything about arts and of course...books too. when we were very much young (still do not have our own driving license), my parent made a point for me and my elder brother to visit library every weekend cos where i came from books were really expensive (in those days...you do know what they said about penguins...very rare). heck when i grew up. i do hate library. library just got stuck in 18th century and never move on. when you are in library, it feels like you are in 100 thousands old graveyard, all those cobwebbs, those smells, i say spooky.

but my love for books...still. then, now and forever. never dies. never. now with all the smarter phones, notebooks, flat screens, a, e, i or u,blackberry (mental note: i've never thought in mylife, the word "blackberry" can be used hand-in-hand with the word "torch", very creative!), strawberry, whatever they've called these days, i can have my reading materials anywhere and anytime i want.who would want to be in library?

cineplex...why there isnt bookplex?
why not those bookshops as big as ikea stores, as artsy as modern art galleries, as cool as theme parks, as hip as virgin records, as wild as national parks, with how the world been polluted today, no harm to have some indoor camping sites. open for 24 hours, organising sleep-over, slumber party, with poem & musical recital, bedtime stories, book clubs reunion...with pass-on marshmallows and serving hot chocs...
i say why not bookplex...
why not makes anything associates with books, reading sounds more artsy, fashionable, younger and up-to-date
anyway literature is actually "the art of written works"
when it is regard as an art. it is rebel, revolt and evolve.


who could have blame when everyones nowadays find lady G's and justin B's words are more romantic, mysterious than William Blake's and Kahlil Gibran's words...

guess, kinokuniya might want to take note.

"firefly..."

I am,

Afraid of the dark,

It is hard for me to breath,

And mostly afraid,

To be there alone,

Thus,

I always pray,

In the end,

You will always choose,

To be on the side of me,

As,

I always believe,

Everyone need to have someone to hold,

Even,

If we are just,

A firefly

"my fave reading of the year & mommy's in town..."

i've completed "the lacuna" by Barbara Kingsolver. and believe me, this year...one of my best books that i've ever read and it only takes me a week to finish.

in mylife i've never read books that make me so nervous and wish that i dont hv to go to bed...but keep on reading till the very last page. "the lacuna" and "snow" by great living author Orhan Pamuk. the words and the storylines of both will make you want to sneak in between those pages. after am done, all i can think of...fuhh! what a great imagination. how i wish i've the opportunity to spend time with great writers while they writing a book. these 2 books are highly recommended. and much appreciated to MAGRUDY's Deira City Centre, as they all very patience with me, who keep on looking for "weird reading materials". they're very nice enough to look for my books all over UAE and even in Oman just to feed my hunger & cravings.

and right away after finish my reading, i just cant stop cleaning my pad. wash every cloths, wipe everything even on soffit and make sure there's no single dust will survive, cleaning every day & night. the reason being. not santa but mommy is in town. tho she'll be staying in hotel apartment (as my pad is only a room with attached bathroom and small window:O), she'll be coming just to see or rather QA/QC inspection.

trust me, my mommy dearest may just standing by the window and then once she hold the curtain, she'll say "honey, did you not iron this curtain before hung? you must iron first. so, when you hang, it'll be nicely plated"
as usual, being a good daughter, i'll smile and reply "i'll not forget to iron that next time, mommy" which will be the perfect line. hence, the between line, "oh mommy, it's just a f**king curtain anyway. who cares about the plated, it's not a skirt!"
