as usual,there’re trillions of issues circulating in both brilliant & curious inventions called brain and media respectively.but sadly,when a sleep/rest is in need due to a certain degree of fatigue,one just says,”a sleep is a sleep”.so here’s;

Exercise, sleep cuts cancer risk: study

Nap without guilt: It boosts sophisticated memory

for fear of brain overload?

1)”Responsibilities,patience,self-reliance,determination,right mindset,etc”.im young,growing up and still learning(for sure i make mistakes,but i try to learn from them).i’ve always believed one has to keep improving in life.no one is ever perfect,no matter how good you are.and i wont forget the days when i woke up myself and prepare my own pre-dawn meal at 4/5am,all alone,when my parents and siblings were away.it felt like the dull-version of the film “Home Alone”.oh yes,the memorable & unique experience of watching the inaugural F1 night race;S’pore GP;from the grandstand.thanks dad!

2)Relishing the prospect of speaking basic German.(prefer French,still)

3)Economic recession,rising cost of living,conflicts,corruption,environmental probs,poverty,etc.these are what u get when you a)flip open the newspapers b)watch the news c)read articles online.(at least more worthwhile than articles like “how to burn 10 kilos in 10 days” or some other daft gimmicks)

4)Visiting the tranquil beach alone and de-stress.shady trees,cool breeze,waves doing hopscotch on the fine sands,clear blue sky which resembles a mirror where u can self-reflect and introspect.at the same time,to be grateful to God for His ni’mat.

5)Theatre “Sidang Burung” in Esplanade generates a certain degree of deep-thinking and philosophy.for me,it’s like a poetry in motion,artistic and metaphorical.certainly not an easy play to interpret.only after looking at the whole pict(the brochure helped a bit!) did i realise what it was all about.

6)aku terlihat gadis itu lagi;di luar studio teater esplanade.terkejut tapi alhamdulillah,ku bisa tenang dengan gaya selamba yg sudah menjadi kebiasaan apabila ku merasa malu.tiba-tiba ku rasa seakan disuntik inspirasi…

memory

Filed under: arts, dreams, life — by tranquiill @ 5:00 am

in a bid to archive the experience/memory online lest they somehow fade away,this words are penned down painstakingly yet imperatively.(time:4.39am)

just got bck from outing with ex-classmates in NP.watched a virtuosic musical performance by NP Strings at dbs auditorium (creepy vicinity not meant for food-lovers).good,ludicrous jokes-couldnt stop focusing on that petite girl playing the guitar-during the performance.other than that,most of the time was spent wondering if im the one playing an acoustic on stage (no more those dull songs definitely).

then off to watch Death Race,at DG.one word;amazing.great graphics,cool racing cars and acting/ladies.and like other few inspiring movies,one becomes spirited and the notion of pulling sth related tends to surface.nevertheless,were given a ride on a friend’s BMW.journey home took a twist as the car accidentally entered the Wdlands Immigration Checkpt;apparent long wait in late night/early morning (pity no passport).finally free,raced home.memorable/useful experience with nice lads.

ok fasting month’s back!brings back good memories as well as another chance to make amendments.and check this heavenly fruit out pls-FIGS.(mentioned in the surah At-Tin and also in the hadith:

Abu ad-Darda r.a narrated that the Prophet(s.a.w) said,“If I could say that a fruit was sent down from Heaven (to earth), I would say it is figs, because the Heaven’s fruit has no stones. Eat it, as it cures hemorrhoids & it is useful for treating gout.”)

inspirasiku,realiti/fantasi?

Filed under: arts, dreams, history, life, random — by tranquiill @ 1:44 am

Sewaktu dlm perjalanan pulang dlm mrt,gerabak yg kunaiki lalu di stesen Admiralty.Secara kebetulan,seorang gadis yg kelihatan familiar (mungkin dlm mimpi),berdiri di platform luar,menanti utk memasuki kabin sebelah.Pertama kali,mataku tertarik pada wajahnya,seakan seperti berbangsa kacukan.walaupun sekilas saja,ku tahu hatiku berdebar punya sebab.lebih memeranjatkan lagi,beliau keluar di stesen yg sama dgnku.kucuba menghampirinya tapi ternyata beliau begitu pantas hingga ku terpaksa melihatnya pergi dari pandanganku.

  ‘optimistic,inspired,motivated,determined,focused.no excuse to think otherwise.’ (but sometimes its tough u know)

‘im eighteen and still learning.hopefully if i reach 80,i’ll still learn.learning’s a lifelong journey.that’s the way life is.you’ve to adapt to the circumstances as they come.’

so,in separate interviews; 

mourinho: avram grant’s working at my club but he wasnt working with me.i dont know the person,i feel nothing for him but i feel everything for the club.i still feel the club’s part of me and want it to succeed.but i hope to play them nxt season and want to go there and “kill them”.

grant: do u like fish?why is the fish on the table?because it opened its mouth! 

ps:résumé is french,means ’summary’.Curriculum vitae(CV) is latin,means ‘course of life’

hello…

Filed under: arts, dreams, life — by tranquiill @ 3:01 pm

stumbled upon an interesting poetry- ‘the girl in green’…so decided to create a version based on my thoughts.here’s ‘girl in white’,

the girl in white

so neat yet so bright

the girl in white

just happened to be in sight

saw you in my dreams

thought you were cool

but then again it seems

I was feeling like a fool

your smile revealed those teeth

made me shrink in beneath

you’re not fazed by the crowd

while I looked on without a doubt

oh girl in white

clad in silk so light

dancing around in the moonlight

looked so elegant as you glide

you appeared gentle and petite

and sang with impeccable note

frolicking to every beat

 as if you’re in blissful abode

oh girl in white

you are so sweet

you left me in your stride

almost made it impossible to meet

girl in white

wish could hold you tight

made me think and think

hey wait a minute, is that a ring?
