tsk,

Accidently cut a good 1 inch off my skin while peeling apples, leaving me with a bloody finger. Made cream puffs but it didn't turn out as good as it used to. Stuck with no ideas to write my take-home midterm essay. And you think running off to west edmonton mall tomorrow will solve your problems, Ainaa? Plus I have a feeling H&M X Versace will not be available in Canada. No wonder azman noticed my face was a bit cengkung than usual, something is literally consuming me.

album review

I rarely give out album reviews, but after purchasing Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto on iTunes I knew I had to write about it.

Mylo Xyloto is not just any album, its a concept album, probably the best one I've heard from the 21st century. Listening to the songs individually won't do any justice to a concept album, you have to listen to everything back to back. The occasional sparse music, combined with Chris Martin's crisp voice, gives it a lofty quality, very much like its titles: Hurts like Heaven and Paradise. While Every Tear is a Waterfall has very dense qualities and fast tempo, very much like a rush of water. Several short pieces blended seamlessly into much more longer songs. A Hopeful Transmission builds up to Don't Let it Break Your Heart, and if you listen carefully in the background there are echoes of "Hope" in Don't Let it Break Your Heart. The reverberating sounds that ended the same song continued to the last song Up with the Birds, concluding the whole album with yes, a sense of Hope for those who listen.

Coldplay, this album is sheer genius!

it runs in the family

Congratulations to my sister Amirot for your SPM Mara Trial Results! I'm not surprised, the over-achiever (or over-achiever wannabe) genes are in you

friday

The boy with courdroy pants
Sat beside me on the half-empty bus
On my way back alone from the mall
He did not stink at all
I steal glances
I see black-rimmed glasses
Random boy do I know you?
Please say hi if you do
Leave me your number
Maybe one day we can get coffee together

If you somehow come across this Boy With Courdroy Pants, you should be flattered :)

Prof, Pizza, and Pop

I went to a 'Meet the Prof' night organized by the Molecular Biology Student Assoc., hoping to get to know a potential prof who might want to be my supervisor for my undergraduate research project. The problem is not finding the right prof, but answering the main question: What do I want to do? i.e. What interests me in the field of science?

Oh well, all hope is not lost.

At least I narrowed down to what area of microbiology I am interested in, its only a matter of being interested in what am I about to do.

Doesn't matter if you are in a relationship or just normal friends, you're bound to hit that 'comfortable phase'.
You know, that phase when you can just casually lie down on his couch, sing out loud, or say "weyh sakit perut lah nak berrr".
This is when their true colours come out. Do you still laugh at their stupid jokes? Do you get offended when you're friend comments you look fat in that top? Flaws don't look too endearing now huh. From this point on, two or more people can make it or break it.

P/s: will be writing a take-home midterm next week. Wonder how that will work out hmm..

Happy Thanksgiving!

So I really need to run to the Lush Store because I'm running out of shampoo. Or maybe I'm just finding an excuse to walk out in the sun down Whyte Ave, maybe check out gravitypope shoes too. Or I'm just procrastinating my homework.

Meant to get my Lush shopping done since yesterday, but I was down with a massive headache after games, running and turkey picnic at the park (it was blazingly hot at 4 degrees celsius), then I got side-tracked by the boysss who invited me for cupcakes at Fuss. Even after I was stuffed with turkey, I will always have room for dessert.

Maybe I'll just get my shampoo tomorrow. Neglecting my homework right now does not seem like a good idea specially after I had a pretty good long weekend.

hahaha ok, I need a cuddle from a cat so bad

one more year

-Based on the marks I'm getting it looks as if I am in the wrong course.

-Or maybe marks are not an accurate reflection of what I have learnt.

-Or maybe I was being too ambitious in my choice of courses, biting off than I can chew.

Too late to turn back now. The best thing I can do is take one step at a time.

P/s: ahhh leganya dapat shopping!

I don't normally listen to Malay songs, but this song has been stuck in my head since Sadid/Syamil (can't remember which one) played it through their iPhone during the Banff road trip.

"ini tidak adil tidak adil bagi ku"

Baff National Park

Lost in the Sun's eye

I hear the winds whisper

"Let's stay like this forever"

Went to Banff National Park with friends for the weekend hoping to camp out but it was too cold. We took the hostel instead. All the mountains and lakes were beautiful, but Banff Town was equally pretty too. It was such a touristy place, with rows and rows of cute shops nestled between mountains. The next time I visit Banff I'm going to spend at least 2 days just hanging around the town.

P/s: Please pray for my friend who had an accident during this road trip. She will be getting a surgery ASAP, hopefully tomorrow. Be strong, I know you are.
