Saturday afternoon. Bermalasan-malasan the whole day through. Rain is pouring down outside, and i’m having a horrendous craving for soy milk. Got the tv on, but nothing’s worth watching. Days like this, what a girl to do? Blogthings cut and paste, of course!!~

::: me? a migician?? now that’s the first! avacadabra awaaayyy…….. :::

You Are The Magician

You are powerful and wise - beyond what anyone can see. Deeply complex, you have the resources to connect to the spiritual and material world. You posses the knowledge to manipulate your life and the lives around you. You also have a great healing power, should you choose to use it. Your fortune: You have unhidden powers that you have yet to tap into. Soon, you will better understand how to use your intellect and intuition. Believe it or now, you will discover how you can manipulate yourself and others for good. You are at the beginning of a path of spiritual enlightenment.

::: but this one down here is a straight head-on!! especially on the luck-skepticalism thingy :::

:::  dont know bout this one…need to ask my eX-skool mates!!! :::

All American Kid

Popular but not plastic. Athletic but not a jock. Smart but not a brain. You were well rounded and well liked in high school.

::: eherm…shud i take an advance degree??? :::

You Should Get a MFA (Masters of Fine Arts)

You’re a blooming artistic talent, even if you aren’t quite convinced. You’d make an incredible artist, photographer, or film maker.

::: so can a face say something?? ( a fren says his face showed that he’ll be married more than once!! ahakz!! Beware girls!!!!) :::

What Your Face Says

At first glance, people see you as warm and well-balanced. Overall, your true self is reserved and logical. With friends, you seem thoughtful and interested in ideas. In love, you seem mysterious and interesting. In stressful situations, you seem cheerful and optimistic.

Rain’s still pouring outside. It’s now 5.30. Guess i’ll go to kitchen and fix some snack. Maybe i’ll watch a CD. Or read my sheldon/archer/patterson collection for the umphteen time. bye now~

Yesterday took a day off to settle a few things in my alma-mater. Dropped by faculty to pick up a few things I left off, n bumped into my beloved sifOO, the one who made my firSt year at design skool a tremendously brain scattering, blood pumping, muscle swelling eXp[erience (in which make me the perSon i am today, the deSigner i am today..which is not much, when i start to think about it ahaks) ::: en Nasir b  Baharuddin ::: lepak bilik dia jap. tanye when is he going to further his phD study. ahakz got a lame reply " study tinggi2 sampai phD pon tak guna kalo basic in landscape pon tak tau" hahaha true2. MENGARUT semua tue. kalo basic takder ape guna ada phD pon? turns out he's now into writing, got a few hard-core underground art mag he's been writing in including one : DI MANAKAH ARAH SENI MALAYSIA KINI? pretty damn mind provoking. NOw he's writing a book..in which he talks about elements in landscape.

For thOse who think landscape is all about trees and shruBs, u are waaay 1920-s. Landscape is everything around us. The surroundings, the environment, the everything that engulfs us. Trees and plants are just one part of landscape structure, which is made of man-made and natural compartments. Landscape is about how you create a living environment.

Landscape is not just Balinese Garden. Balinese Garden works at Bali, not in Malaysia. Thats why we call it Balinese. Balinese Garden has that sublime sense of tranquility and mystery because its a religiously motivated landscape. Built, developed and nurtured for thousand of years. Its a symbol of HINDUism devotion by people of Bali, n here we are in Malaysia copying the same things in all muslims houses. And we all wonder why cant it be great like Balinese ones. Of course it wont work. Cause it's a FAKE. Okey2, i might as well stop blabbering now!!

En Nasir (bless him) has listed out 7 major elements that make out the landscape, those things that we have to take into consideration before designing a landscape environment. To get better comprehension on these 7 elements by all means go visit him at his office, pensyarah kanan Fakulti Rekabentuk & Senibina UPM. He welcomes anyone who is willing to learn. Or better yet, sing up to become Master Student there. He taught these at postgraduate class.

So here it is, with permission, authentic from  cik Nasir ::

learn bout this 7, then only call urself a landscape architect.

Got a disastrous headache today. My brain is pounding against my skull, which felt eerily similar to the ones I got in another [timezone], when I was still a >dEsignSchool student,back when we were walking zombies with hollow eyes and robotic emotionless movements to finish up our drawing, dozing off 1-2 hours per day during studio submission dateline…the same terrible headache whenever u are deprived of sufficient sleep and you are struggling to stay awake while your brain is trying all it’s might to persuade you to do otherwise. Heck, I can’t sleep even if I want to. I’M AT THE OFFICE, FOR GOD SAKE, BRAIN. You can pound all u might but there’s no way to rest.

I don’t usually get ill, and I thank God for that. I can’t remember the last time I got a flu, what, 2, 3 years ago? Last time I got a fever was almost 4 years ago, when I stopped taking those darn Spirulina. But once I got sick, phew, I can’t even stand straight. That last fever cost me 5 consecutive days lying in bed. The only obvious weak one in my organization of organ is my stomach.  Man, I got sick in there almost every day (but usually can be solved by a few visits to the Ladies, ehek). And of course, my infamous low-blood pressure, but I don’t dwell on that, it’s been a part of me all my life, and, like every humble part of me, I embrace it with open arms and take it as a challenge, not something to be pity with, or to gain sympathy from others, ehek.

It’s very important to count our blessing. Everyday, every second we have something to be grateful of. The air we breathe in. The gift of love. Of food on our table. We are seldom grateful for simple things in life, like when everyone else is standing up in a crowded LRT, and we are the only ones sitting. Why did Allah gave the sit to us? Why us, not others? Or when we went to a shopping mall on Sunday evening, when all the parking bays are jam-packed with occupants, we of all people suddenly find a spot just nice to park a car. Do we really feel grateful for that? Don’t we realize why Allah gave it to us despite other cars looming around desperately to park? Simple things that we seldom noticed, until it’s taken from us.

If we count all the bad things in your life, we will never feel satisfied. And we will never feel grateful. But, if you count all the good things that you have in life, you will feel content. You will be grateful. You couldn’t care less what other’s got. You feel great being yourself, and you don’t ever want to be anyone else. The only way people is going to respect you is when you RESPECT YOURSELF. The only way people is going to value you is when you VALUE YOURSELF. Don’t try to be like others or dwell in what they have that you don’t have. Because the only way you want to be THAT PERSON that everyone want to be is when YOU DON’T WANT TO BE ANYTHING ELSE BUT YOURSELF.

Aha, i feel better already writing this.

You Are a Dreaming Soul

Your vivid emotions and imagination takes you away from this world So much so that you tend to live in your head most of the time You have great dreams and ambitions that could be the envy of all… But for you, following through with your dreams is a bit difficult You are charming, endearing, and people tend to love you. Forgiving and tolerant, you see the world through rose colored glasses. Underneath it all, you have a ton of passion that you hide from others. Always hopeful, you tend to expect positive outcomes in your life. Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul, Prophet Soul, and Traveler Soul

Your Seduction Style: Fantasy Lover

You know that ideal love that each of us dreams of from childhood? That’s you! Not because you posess all of the ideal characteristics, but because you are a savvy shape shifter. You have the uncanny ability to detect someone’s particular fantasy… and make it you. You inspire each person to be an idealist and passionate, and you make each moment memorable Even a simple coffee date with you can be the most romantic moment of someone’s life By giving your date exactly what he or she desires, you quickly become the ideal lover. Your abilities to make dreams come true is so strong, that you are often the love of many people’s lives. Your ex’s (and even people you have simply met or been friends with) long to be yours. No doubt you are the one others have dreamed of… your biggest challenge is finding *your* dream lover.

Your Eyes Should Be Brown

Your eyes reflect: Depth and wisdom What’s hidden behind your eyes: A tender heart

Slow and Steady

Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It’d really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment. They expect you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then usually decide against it.

You Are a Boston Creme Donut

You have a tough exterior. No one wants to mess with you. But on the inside, you’re a total pushover and completely soft. You’re a traditionalist, and you don’t change easily. You’re likely to eat the same doughnut every morning, and pout if it’s sold out.

You Passed 8th Grade Science

Congratulations, you got 6/8 correct!

Ten things Allah won’t ask:

1… Allah won’t ask what kind of car you drove; He’ll ask how many people you drove who didn’t have transportation.

2…Allah won’t ask the square footage of your house, He’ll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.

3…Allah won’t ask about the clothes you had in your closet,He’ll ask how many you helped to clothe.

4… Allah won’t ask what your highest salary was; He’ll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it.

5…Allah won’t ask what your job title was; He’ll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability.

6…Allah won’t ask how many friends you had, He’ll ask how many people to whom you were a friend

7…Allah won’t ask in what neighborhood you lived, He’ll ask how you treated your neighbors.

8…Allah won’t ask about the color of your skin, He’ll ask about the content of your character.

9…Allah won’t ask why it took you so long to seek Salvation;He’ll lovingly take you to your mansion in heaven, and not to the gates of Hell.

10…Allah won’t ask how many people you forwarded this to;He’ll ask if you were ashamed to pass it on to your friends.

Read Carefully
Happy moments, praise Allah.
Difficult moments, seek Allah.
Quiet moments, worship Allah.
Painful moments, trust Allah.
Every moment, thank Allah.
