..about the shocking news..

Gash.
This is one good way to really wake me up in supercold mornings with disastrously strong winds and a considerable level of drop-dead laziness that still clings so heavily to my eyes.

BRITNEY SPEARS'S COMEBACK SINGLE IS OUT, PEOPLE!!!


It's titled "Gimme More". And yes, it sounds great. I love love LOVE this track!! *jumps around excitedly*

She's back! Another chain of success is definitely waiting for her. Now I can hardly wait to hear what the rest of her upcoming album will sound like. Oh well. A guy can only hope.

Let's just cross our fingers and pray that hopefully she's gonna start to BEHAVE properly from now on. *sighs*

Listen to the track here.
Or you can download it here. Just click on the Track #1 link that appears on the page.

Please be aware that I am NOT making a single penny out of this.

I can barely contain my excitement right now.

WELCOME BACK, MISS BRITNEY!! =D

..the pieces gone..

Currently listening to: Beautiful - Christina Aguilera


My supposedly expected-to-be-boring days so far turn out to be quite eventful.
Am really really REALLY grateful for the actually-undeserving HD I managed to scrap in the first Accounting assignment. I nearly burst into tears when I got the papers back and looked at the flashing big red '93%' circled untidily on the cover sheet; I was like speechless and shaking all over in an instant, literally. Added by constant ga-gaing and continuous euphoric stomach-lurches that managed to stay for hours afterwards.

I mean, omigod, this is my FIRST ever authentic good mark I receive in this frikkin' subject!! Like, the very very first one in almost three years of lingering in complete oblivion struggling to try and grasp the idea of doing Accounting properly.

I am blessed to have such supportive and competent friends who are willing to help me overcome my incurable dumbness in numbers and reach this outstanding achievement.

And, yes. I am truly grateful. Thank you, guys.
*continues to glance gratefully, tearful-eyed, at Sharlene, Leyi, and Andrew*

Well. Then came the lunar eclipse thingy.

It happened on Tuesday night for around an hour. And we were all ecstatic! Leyi kept calling me back to give updates on the whereabouts of the moon, aided by occasional hyped-up screamings coming from her housemate. *grins* My friends who live in the city even went to Albert Park just to see! Too bad the sky was cloudy in the city area that night. *sighs* I took the chance to text my besties in J-Town, even took the chance to text a gotten-over past crush for a sweet reply *winks winks*, and called some other peeps who were just as excited as I was. Then I called Chris, and he told his friends, and they told their second-degree friends, and those friends told somebody else, and so on the channel goes.

But, yeah. In the end it was beautiful. Quite a rare sight, you know, seeing the moon turn bloody red and stay that way for hours. It was as if something cruel was hurting the moon sooo badly that it bled. *laughs* Felt like witnessing a fairy tale scene in real life, strangely enough.
Too bad I couldn't capture the sight since it's like too unreachably far away [well it's the moon fgs]. My available camera lenses are not that strong leh! Hahaha.

So there you go. Life's been okay lately. Dormant and peacefully funny like it used to be back home. Am not in any rush to speed up, though. I've got hectic, stressful weeks coming up, so I'm enjoying every laid-back moment to the fullest every chance I get!

I hope this week's been fantastic for you guys as well.
Lates! =)

..don't care if i show it..

Sorry for not being quite in touch.

Last week had been too awfully hectic. My mind was like focusing all over the place I barely even had time to think properly. Damn journals. Damn websites. Damn textbooks. Damn superlongandboring essays. Damn superextraduperlongandtiring reports.

..Oh well. Randomness suits me best, I tell you.

But but but hey, here I am now! Body and soul and right state of mind and all.
I wish I will finally be able to take some time just to slack off and catch my breath this week. Not to mention that I have some urgent catching-ups to do in terms of sleeping hours. *sighs* Then I will soon have to start braving the cruel cruel world once again what with another crappy assignment waiting round the corner.

Aaaaaanyways.
I was walking home from supper yesterday evening, feeling thoroughly exhausted yet considerably well-fed, relieving from the traces of excessive stress left after long, sleepless night typing away on my laptop, when I saw some glimmering colors shining brightly on the little still-sunny edge of the sky.



The beautiful reddish strikes that glow amongst layers of gloomy gray just caught my overworked eyes, and I relieved upon the magical sight. Then I knew that I was being comforted, right there, on the spot.

Yes. The Mighty Big Guy Up There always has His own funny ways to cheer up the weary.

Life's not that bad when you think about it, you know. No matter how far you've gone and how much you've suffered. In the end, victory is still yours, in one form or another.

Sometimes simple little miracles can really help you remember that you are being loved and cared for.
And yeah I've always known that. Yet sometimes I still can't help but need a little bit of reminder, in the form of surprises sweetly enough like the one I saw yesterday.

Let's just hope He still has more in stock nicely planned for me after all this is done. I can probably enjoy the warm mellow-y mood for once. *sighs*
Have a nice week, people! =)

..i smashed it all in pieces..

Currently listening to: Stupidest Girl in the World - Andrea Corr


..Gash.
Spring is coming much earlier that I thought it would.

Lately I've noticed that everybody seems eager to start cutting back the usual gloomy excessiveness of winter clothing, replacing it with colorful shorties and shirts. Not to mention the ever-irresistible presence those oh-so-hot-and-steamy pairs of oversized sunnies back out and about. The weather's been nice as well; sun's up all day long and not even a glimpse of those annoyingly strong winds blowing onto your face scratching all over.

But, yeah. If Spring is really coming then I better start rearranging my wardrobe for real. Not that I do have a decent one down here, mind you. My outfit collection is far too pathetic -- variety and sufficiency speaking -- to boast about; raiding stores with shining 'SALES' tags on them might me my number one mission in the next two weeks or so.

Well okay. Call me freaky noticing these kinds of things, but fashion has always been part of my passion, among other unimportant things. So, there you go.

In the mean time, I'm gonna have to deal with frikkin' Marketing and Management essays.
No fun for me this week, I guess. *sighs*

Please once again pardon my delusional randomness.
You know, blogging has always been, redundancy tagged, my sweetly sweetest sweet escape, referring to lovely Gwen Stefani.

Oh gosh. Wtf.
Finally, in respect to yet another celebrity to make this post sound even grosser than it already is, I will close today's post with a quote from the infamous Paris Hilton;

"...What's Wal-Mart? Do they, like, sell like wall stuff here?"

And oh yeah, thanks a lot for the bunch of rotten tomatoes. *winks*
Have a FABULOUS week, guys! =)

...Happy 62th Birthday, Dear Indonesia.





Another year, another number, another period has passed.

We've had our times; good ones, bad ones, and ones in between. We've shared happiness. Pride. Troubles. Even pain and losses. Has been great getting through my life with you, mate. Has been a hell of an amazing experience living under your wings, the only place in the world I can still refer to as 'home', wherever I go. Has been hard going away and move on as well, after all these years. But we will never be too far apart; distance can only do so much.

No matter what happens; despite all those conflicts, riots, disasters, heartaches...
Your sweetness remains, deep down inside my heart.
And I will always remember you for that.

...Dirgahayu Indonesia Merdeka!!!
