The Divine Comedy of Punishment says


recently lehning's been showing us films in TOD. not movies, films.
The Princess and The Warrior, Run Lola Run and yesterday, City of God.

now, this is why you should watch City of God.
because it's brilliant.
blindingly brilliant and not bling-bling brilliant.
because all that blood and violence and overflow of human emotions
pretty much blows you away.

so go get the DVD already.

in case you haven't heard, Iraq are the new Asian Champions. yes, forever-chaotic, war-torn Iraq. awesome or what? go Younes Mahmoud!

am really glad they won, my heart really goes out to them. can you imagine these people - losing a stepmother here, an old friend there, having their physiotherapist die of a blomb blast a few days before competition... and then still rising above it all to clinch top spot at the AFC!

go Iraq.

oh, and madds? you should've seen them. dorang bagus giler.

ditching edward


vampiric love.

- so i'm your kind of heroin?
-you're exactly my kind of heroin.
(twilight/stephenie meyer)

hah. i like that.

........................................................

so i saying casually to madds, ' Hey, Harry Potter swallowed a portkey. '
and she looked so angry, so instantly incensed that for a moment i thought she was gonna do the Avada kedavra on me or something. yes, right there in that estrogen-filled Metro sale queue.

hahah. love you too, madds.

what do you do when doa tak jalan?
do you lose faith? lose hope?

of course, the immediate answer is, you don't berhenti berdoa, fool.

or maybe my faith not strong enough, lah.
that said, i hope you come to your senses. soon.

two out of five weeks before submission gone just like that. poof!

two weeks. time's a wastin' or what?
i know, i know. i'm such a procrastinating *********

procrastinate

-----------------------------------

if i could get my hands on
salam rushdie's satanic verses or
hamka's di bawah lindungan kaa'bah.

------------------------------------

see, i told you i had a talent for getting my priorities mixed up.



- it is with a heavy heart that i'm giving pesta peti putih a miss. sniffs.

vegas unseated


amid battle cries of 'i want toutorial! i want tutorial!',
girlwiththecrazyhair finds herself sinking deeper into her seat.

several long minutes pass.

girlwiththecrazyhair tries not to panic and reaches for another of those WOODS' peppermint lozenges in lemon flavour.
resumes staring at the words on the slightly-crumpled butter paper:

crevices. water. lights/ads reflected
water curtain(night time)
linked seating. lovers' spot. walk
in the park.

what in the world..
what do you know?


twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees


hello anybody. hello.
coughing myself half to death, is what's wrong with me.

the pupil in denial.


And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time

And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky


love love love this song.
all project matters coming to a standstill with the exception of Potter, i haven't read in ages ahhh Potter with milahtants tomorrow Potter with milahtants tomorrow yay

newly-minted diver chick is going away for the weekend again, to Tioman this time. areergghgryhzomgmge!
take me with you take me with youuuuuu!
maybe if i was small enough i could fold myself up like that chinese guy in Ocean's 12 and sneak into her bags. and when we're there, when they're not looking, i'll sneak off and then snorkle myself to crystal clear sparking blue-green endlessness.

voodoo cakes and other oddities


they're talking again.
-crosses fingers-

-------------------

i've been stoning these past two days in school.
kes rabak punye lazing around and stoning, like sitting at my workstation and spacing out while the girls talk and laugh around me, bits of their conversation going in and out of my ears. nak kata i was staying up all night doing my work frantically, tak jugak.
hmmph. maybe it's just me getting the lazy yati syndrome yet again.

because these two days have been a blurrrrrrrrrrr.
can't remember much, other than these small events - in chronological order :

- khai dropping in for a surprise visit at the studio during monday morning submission.
hahah.. tak sangka 'boy' ingat kiteorang lagi! and khai, t'was good to see you, even though you looked a bit smelly.

- jenny dropping her newly-bought-belum-sempat-nak-minum bubble tea all over the classroom floor, followed by a lot of kecoh2 courtesy of the chinese girls and jenny re-appearing with mop and pail in hand.

- the private joke of the day, involving a,b,c and a place, which left fuzah and me in stitches repeatedly, even while we were trying not to fall asleep in PQM.

and

-ashar living up to his self-christened Papa Jahat nickname by demonstrating some highly-disturbing dangdut moves in class. -tries to picture ashar in a dangdut club and falls off chair-


ah, shit. really have to go now.
but i just want to say that that malay double-bill, Bulan Madu was just blindingly brilliant. i thought alin & oniatta were really good but gene shah rudyn took my breath away.
that guy is absolutely crazy, i tell you.
