Life was like a box of chocolates.

I went to do my UK Visa application earlier today. I left home about 6:15 in the morning, got to Wisma MCA building at about 35 minutes later. When I got there, there were already quite a number of people already waiting for the office to open at 8. There has got to be roughly about 50 people or so. The counter opened at 8, I got number 218, while Ameenah was just before me, thus began our long wait…. People were sorted out, those who made an appointment were asked to sit on one side, while those who didn’t on the other. For us who came without an appointment, the queue began at number 161. 1 st stage This is our main event. Met Asyiq, Ikmal Haqemi (SAS friend), Adam Wan, Saiful, Amirul, Alya, Sara Salim as well a few new friends. While waiting, Ameenah challenged me in a game of UNO in my Iphone. To my surprise, I lost to her four games in a row! She even made me call her a pro! Talked to Adam about his newly gotten scholarship from MAHB, Lilian even Googled about his scholarship

Ola everybody, so for this week's song of the week I'm gonna pick an old song, well that not too old, not like it's a John Lennon's or anything. It's Photograph by Nickelback; a song from their album All the Right Reasons in 2005. What is so special about it: Nothing much actually, just another one of your everyday rock songs with a meaningful lyrics built into it. When I listened back to this song, it'll surely take me back. The past, though mine is not so memorable that I wish to forget it, it is still part of me. It is what made me into who I am today. Like bittersweet chocolate. enjoy~

Alhamdulillah, I finally got the grades required to get into UCL. In approximately a month’s time, I will be leaving to pursue my studies in Economics there. Am I pretty excited to go? Maybe I am not as excited as I should be. Perhaps this has got to be because it was not an intention of mine to be doing all of this in the first place. Nevertheless I am forever grateful to God for this great blessing of His, and I shall make the best out of it. Unlike many of my friends, I don’t actually have a proper plan for my future since high school. Back during my days in SAS, when we were asked to start thinking about our future undertakings, I was one of those boys who were left clueless. I know that I could go for it , but the only lingering question playing inside of my head is ‘what is it ?’ During my earlier years, like many kids I was told to become a doctor. Guess that’s a cliché nowadays. A career that is essential to support the lives of human beings. Who could blame them though; it

Why I like this song: Because of its funky beats. The music itself is composed of a little bit of the old school and modern mix. And besides, the lyrics are nice, so lovely. I wish I knew this song much earlier.

Big today, huh. The expectations and fears of many hangs in the balance, not to mention it even decides how the next year is going to be like, whether a re-sit would be necessary or not. At 9, my friends have begun to bombard my phone, while I was still nicely tucked in bed with my bear. Oh the ringing and the texts, I quickly jumped out of bed and get into the shower, with my Bluetooth all charged, I called Miss Sarah. Honestly, I didn't expect her to pick up at first try, but she did! I was kind of in awe for a moment before my tongue finally got hold of itself to say to her good morning. When she told me I got an A for my Econs, I was so grateful; told the news to my dad who happened to walked on me after I put the phone down, next is surely Sabrina! Sadly though, Sabrina didn't get an A for her Econs. She was devastated about it as she's worked so very hard for it all these while. To make it even worse, I can't be there to help her to prepare for her November pap

My results are due in a week’s time, maybe less than that since it is already Saturday. Am I scared? Yes, surely I am, I mean who doesn’t when this exam is going to determine where my classmates and I would end up being. Being a scholar, there is an immense amount of pressure put on top my head. My grades are always being carefully monitored by the Human Resource department, and should they find it unsatisfactory, harsh actions could be taken on me. All of my actions are subject to their liking, and they have all the rights to do so since I am by right an investment of theirs. Besides that, I can only apply to the top 10 universities so I have not much of free choices in that. My academic life doesn’t sound too interesting, does it? Don’t get me wrong though, maybe all those things made it sound like it is strict, no room for error in my studies situation, but all in all, they are all there for a reason to push me into further developing myself to go even further. Scared I am to wait

This one is one of my favourite songs. Well technically it is not so much of a song since there is no singing in it, just music. It so full of emotions and it tells a story, be it of the composers or even of the listeners'. It's a soundtrack from the movie Meet Joe Black. Soothing, don't you think? I don't know about you, but I prefer to listen to this song when I write but not when I am writing my Economics paper or any other academic writing though. Music fueled with emotions, amazing how brilliant it is used as a medium to channel such energy of love to its listeners, no? I leave the rest to you.......

Why this song?: It's romantic. Haha, sorry guys, but I really do miss Sabrina so much these days, especially cause my days here is outnumbered. God's willing if my result is alright I won't be able to see her as much, so yeah, I kind of wish that I had more time spent together. On top of that, the lyrics are somewhat meaningful, though I am a bit startled by how it relates to the movie. I've recently watched it, and yes the song does fit in, but not as perfectly as I wished it to be prior to seeing it. Nevertheless, this music video seems to capture all the romantic essences in it, so even without seeing the movie you'll be able to enjoy it~ I leave the rest to you.......
