After All These Years...

One of my favorite song...

After All These Years

Breathe in the night
That crushed a tired sunrise
Born again the day
Brings young naivety

A laptop souvenir is worth its weight
In silver a golden son
You'll be home again
And I'll be home again

Mend in my sleep
I'm boxing under water
Waddle on the wake
Waking on a summer day

After all these years
Forget about all the troubled times

And every father's pain
Casts a shadow over a broken son
You'll be whole again
And I'll be whole again

Munificent, artless and ascetic
Playing like a scared
Enthusiastic pawn

All those years
I was hurting to feel
Something more than life

EXTREME DAY!!

Last Friday, I after staying up all night, I went to Bukit Kiara Extreme Centre to watch a wall climbing competition. I'm not a big fan because I'm not a really competitive kind of person when it comes to sports. Really. I prefer more relaxing activities such as camping, hiking and kayaking. Anyway, I went there because a friend from my hometown was there competing and I was there to give her some support.
I can't really say how I started the day since I never ended the previous day. So let's just say I started driving out of the college around 7.30am. And I arrived at Bukit Kiara around 8.30am. It's kind of surprising that I managed to get there so quick considering it's my first time driving there and I relied entirely on signboards. (lucky brat!!)
My friend arrived at the Centre around 9.30am and the competition started around 11.00am. (damn!!) It started so late that I only get to see the women's first qualifying round. Then I had to go back at 12.00 noon. But it's OK since I get to see my friend. I got home around 1.00pm and I went straight to bed. I was so tired that woke up around 10.00pm. I was planning to post this that very day but...

Here are some pictures from that day:

This is Idah, my hometown friend.
Well she lost that day... Better luck next time!

That's her boyfriend smiling back there. (Sorry guys...hehehe)

Here In My Room

For your information, I'm currently studying Screen Arts in a local university. I'm in the 4th semester and one of my individual assignment for our Music Video subject was to come up with a creative music video. No typical love stories allowed. After a few days of pondering and planning, this is what I came up with using the song Here In My Room by Incubus. It's a little blurry since I only used my webcam to shoot and Windows Movie Maker to do the editing. And yes, that's me in the video. But our lecturer said it's the idea that matters. So enjoy the show and do comment...
