a few years ago, while i was discussing the subject of teenagers (about us, of course) with a
close friend, the person said, "in my opinion, as long as you're still studying, you are still a
teenager."

it's been a while, and the last time i heard, that person's still in the varsity. i guess that counts.

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

there was this girl at FKA. she was tiny.she wore braces.from the look on her faces, you'd
never guess she had athma.she had many friends in the faculty, but i never really knew her.

recently, she came down with high fever.usually, one would recover fully from a fever, but this
girl had athma.

she passed away this morning.her name is norjuhana.

marilah kita bersama-sama menyedekahkan surah al-Fatihah dan berdo'a agar ruhnya
ditempatkan bersama ruh-ruh orang yang beriman.

al-Fatihah.

i believe (mcm biasa dengar saja intro ni) that the coolest thing to do is doing something
you really dig.as long as it's legal, one don't have to give two shits about other people's
opinion.some people like to jam.some like to be alone.some like to be with close friends.

what'd be really cool for me to do is to get into a car (bila nak beli ni, siol betullah) with my
cd collection (not very extensive, but enough) and drive all day/night long, music blaring from
the speakers.singing along, playing air drums on the steering wheel, miming like a...mime..

not so cool lah, but definitely cooler than Mat Kool.

my joy came to an abrupt ending.the dvd player won't play on my old tv.damn.
well, i guess i'll pack it and give it to any newlyweds.
so much for technology,huh?...goodbye, andrea.
it's kind of a blessing, though.i won't be staying up so late during weekdays anymore.cool.
before: no life
now: no life + no dvd.....ain't life a bastard.

i heard on the 'net that there was a quasi-secret/rumour goin' on.ha ha.
i guess the 'big brother' is not so big now!
my my.......

i'v finally decided to take the plunge and join in the crowd..bought me a dvd player.
it's strange how people have the need to buy a dvd player, when they already own
a vcd player....i guess i'm one of the suckers..anyway, it was worth every ringgit,
as i watched andrea corr singing with her siblings in high resolution on my TV.it was
like she performed live,man!...na, i'm kidding.

one of the songs on their set (MTV unplugged) caught my attention...'old town'.
the chorus goes:

this boy is cracking up
this boy has broken down
this boy is cracking up
this boy has broke down

i think (my interpretation, that is) that the song's about a boy who had his heart
crushed by a girl that he loved, and he tried hard to move on as he's still in love with her.

maybe it's about something else, something completely different.
maybe it's just me having the blues......

they say the best thing in the world is happiness
they never said it'd be hard to find it

i got decent grades
and yet there's still something missing
i stayed away from all the madness
and yet there's still something missing
i ignored all the distractions
and yet there's still something missing
made it through without a scratch
and yet there's still something missing
now i'm well off
and yet there's still something missing
i could have anything i want
and yet there's still something missing
i thought i'd figure that missing thing out, but
would it still be missing?

could anybody figure me out?
