Isn't it a good thing to have more holidays in a year?

Thats what I ask myself..

First, Penang.

Now, Terrengganu.

Speaking of which, all these places are stating to come back to memory.

Travelling in my younger days, I realized that I slept most of the time.

Sad. But honestly, they were they most boring parts of the trip.

I've been fortunate enough to travel to so many places. Couple of times too.

Let me see...

Internationally: Hong Kong, Belgium, United Kingdom (England), Australia, SIngapore.

Locally: Sabah, Penang, Tasik Kenyir, Ipoh, Setiawan, Muar, Melaka, Camerons, and Genting.

Gosh! In my 16 years of living in this world, its been a pleasure travelling.

But all I've ever wanted to go has been the United States. I'VE NEVER BEEN THERE!!!

So sad.. =(

So I've made it a point that I shall go there in another 1-2 more years.

Yet to go for UNI! Can't wait.

~~END~~

After the Penang Trip, I got a new calculator!

Still getting the hang of it...

~~END~~

So the newsletter done. Phew!
So glad its over. I think I'm still thinking about it even though its over.
Or maybe its awards night I'm thinking about.
Worried everything might go wrong.
WHY???
Can they just run smoothly.

Or just that everyone's leaving very soon...

~~END~~

At the end of October, my little brother got his first tooth out! 29th to be exact.
Cool eh?
Bet not. But it was cause he's never experienced it before.
I mean, who would when you're 6?
After that, he started complaining and all about his tooth falling out or not.
And that was annoying. But that's what little brothers do.

AAR

What?
The header

When?
Halloween Day!

Where?
Bukit Jalil Car Park

How was it?
It was an awesome 1 hour with the band!

The concert was shit but when the band came out it was awesome.
See the contrast there.
Local management really caused this whole thing to delay A LOT!

Before I was there, I shall rewind a bit.
After church, everyone decided to go to Calvary's Carnival thingy to get lunch.
So we did.
It was busy. Saw a lot of unexpected things.
Bought interesting things too.

Games and food were alright. They were certainly out of the ordinary. Something you don't see a normal carnival actually having these big names coming in to sponsor. Must be a really big thing for them. In all this, they're actually gonna have a massive convention all to themselves in a pretty big piece of land.

Then had to go to AAR. Cannot believe people would be already waiting under the hot sun just to get into the queue and be early. Phew! Good thing friends were there early. I know I was late man.

Concert started.
Waited another half hour.
They let us started going in at about 5.45pm. Pushing and all was on for about 15-20mins.
Feet were damn painful. Wore the wrong shoes too. =( They ached when I reached home.
Concert started like 7.30pm; orginally 6pm.
A malay guy came singing "teenagers" by My Chemical Romance.
Everyone enjoyed it and lost the mood more later.
Then came the local bands which were boring like anything. Cannot even hear a word.
Pop Shuvit and One Buck Short was okay. Disagree was terrible. *Boooo*

Then AAR came on like half hour to an hour later. 10pm =(
Wanted to go home already.
Finish concert, everyone started looking for food.
Then cabut.

With the guys : AAR!

Come Right Out And Say It

Listen to the words/or just read it la.



I'd better rest my eyes
Cuz I'm growing weary of
This point you've been trying to make
So rather than imply
Why don't you just verbalize
All the things that you're trying to say

Thought things would turn out so well
But I'm beginning to see
That instead it's trouble
Into a pattern we fell
Of prolonging the inevitable

Why don't you
Come right out and say it
Even if the words are probably gonna hurt
I'd rather have the truth
Than something insincere
Why don't you
Come right out and say it (come right out and say it)
What it is you're thinking
Though I'm thinking it's not what I wanna hear

I gotta check my pride
Because I was starting to think
I was starting something good
I couldn't start it this way
I was sinking in retrospect
And understanding that I misunderstood
I'd like to make up your mind
And then this decision locks up
So tight it couldn't be touched
Thought you were being so kind
But keeping your mouth sealed shut
Rather than just opening it up

Why don't you
Come right out and say it
Even if the words are probably gonna hurt
I'd rather have the truth
Than something insincere
Why don't you
Come right out and say it (come right out and say it)
What it is you're thinking
Though I'm thinking it's not what I wanna hear

And I tried
To guess what goes on in your head
Cuz in your mind
I just might find
All those things you left unsaid
And I'll try to maybe not regret anything
Later on after I'm gone
You'll wish that you
Had listened to me (listened to me)

Why don't you
Come right out and say it
Even if the words are gonna hurt
We're better off this way
Why don't you
Come right out and say come right out and say
What I know you're thinking anyway
Why don't you
Come right out and say it
Even if the words are probably gonna hurt
I'd rather have the truth than something insincere
Why don't you
Come right out and say it (come right out and say it)
What it is you're thinking
And just what it is you're thinking
