WASSUP!!

Well its been a long time since I blogged [I guess about 5 months]....why? well to be honest because I have been that busy I just have not had time!...... okok lazy as well haha!

I am going to therefore tackle some issues head on....haha...head on is very apt!!

The past few months has been a trifle traumatic but has bought more positives than negatives, yes that does sound barking mad when you have had ppl who you’ve trusted and they make great use of it, love.. [well that’s nvr there, so won’t say much].. well, it’s the way I always prefer to learn [fall and rise]!!!!!

However lifes experiences can be looked upon as negative or positive and this has most definitely been the latter. I have met some amazing people, laughed until i was helpless with the humour I have found from people, experienced first hand what its like to be 'on the other side of the fence' i.e. ME! found out exactly who my friends really are...with some surprises, and audited my life and planned an exciting future… so to be honest, although this seems a strange thing to say, I wouldn't have missed it for the world......

College life: I miss it..

Finally I have finished my adv diploma in business marketing weeeeeeeee.. Bye bye haha!! So just doing my internship [currently], but its for freaking 4 months T^T

Guess what I don’t regret it [will discuss about it on my next post].. I would name that post ‘snake king’ hahahahaha.. I promise you’ll love reading it!!

My dream has taken me to my first step.. since photography came into my list, I’ve just been putting my hardwork in it.. a lot of thanks to friends who taught me so well [but there’s lot more to learn haha].. our production is still not yet totally prepared to talk much about it [but sooner you’ll hear good news about it]… that’s why I chose to study ‘visual communication’.. to keep myself on the right track!! We’ve done few shoots [actually just 3 in numbers] already.. not happy but not even disappointed hehe.. long way to go!!

So to conclude I am fit, well, very healthy [tummy is out haha], not dead, most of the time sad, very active, very short haired (and I like it!) with exciting things planned and ready for the next adventure..... Oh my new name NAN SAE <3

Anneyong!!

My new hobby is Photography

I already said in my previous post that how much I love photography. I just bought a Nikon D90 a few weeks back. When having a DSLR, I really like to go outside and shoot something to brush up my skills in photography.
But it does not mean that I will leave my blogging world. I will still blogging but not active and frequent like before. I will only blog if the issues or news are very interesting which caught my attention.
Last weekend, I went out for a short film shooting together with my friends, that also in a haunted house. Actually I want to take the night scenery of that house but because we didn't wanted to disturb invincible people we left early haha , so here are the results.

Cycling At Langkawi

Cycling at Langkawi is probably not your first thought when you think of Langkawi. Langkawi is well known for its beaches, diving, playing golf and maybe for exotic dinners but its not known for cycling.

No doubt, bicycling at Langkawi is a challenge. For many people the heat, in the shadow, 32°C to 36°C is too much. For me, pranaya, sas, carissa, noble and jim, it's fine. Joseph and yuli preferred riding a motor bike. Locals and foreigners alike will think we were crazy. However, a bicycle can bring you to some awesome places.

I remember bicycling this road for the first time and thought: "is this now the "beautiful" Langkawi?" You may think the same but the best is yet to come. Our bicycle brakes were not that good, and twice my bicycle’s chain came out (fixing that chain when the heat was directly on top of me made me think that I should quit).

Let me surprise you by letting you know that we cycled around 50 kms, this was one amazing kunji stuff we did hahahaha.

Langkawi has a kind of circle road around the island. I say, "a kind of" because it is not really a circle road. The north west area is not accessible and in the north east corner the hills are still mostly jungle.

It's a nice ride to Seven Wells, with some serious but short hills. Just before the Oriental Village you will have a nice view from above over the Harbor.

Going around on bicycle is however very rewarding (like a pain in the ass haha but it got ok the next day after a really nice full body massage, yeah! Sas got over excited as he entered the spa LOL). And yes, cycling at Langkawi will release some additional sweat due to the tropical heat, you will see more then sitting in a taxi or even on a motorbike.

If you decide to go cycling at Langkawi, bring enough water. Especially if you are not used to cycle. But it is worth the effort and the waterfalls will refresh you.

Assume that because you can see other cars – cars can’t see you,
Having no Lights (not even street lights),

Cycling at night I feel like there are so many accidents waiting to happen.

Guess what! We Kunji fellows came back cycling from Seven Wells to pantai cenang at night.

There were many other fun part of our trip which I am really gonna miss like playing football on the beach, diving into the sea, go karting, breakfast at Breakfast Bar, dinner at Tomato and drinking a lot at Chillout Bar at night.

An epic journey of the bottle

2 years ago, when I was a high school student, I put a letter in a bottle, sealed it up, and dropped it in the Bay of Bengal, off the Sundarban coast. It was kind of an experiment. In the letter, I appealed to whomever came across the bottle to contact me and let me know where in the world it showed up. Amazingly, someone did.

About 27 or 28 months after the bottle was dropped, I heard from someone (a marine science teacher) in Manakara, Madagascar. The letter had made its way across the Indian Ocean and washed up on the shores of the Manakara, found by a 17-year-old and his Dad while out for a stroll. I never expected the message to be found.

Unspoken Words...

There were times when days just went by,
Lonely winds swept the earth dry,
Raging sun beamed with all its fury,
was walking alone tired and weary.
And then, you walked into my life,
I wondered why would you be so nice,
must be a dream that won't last long,
Never thought that I could be wrong.

My eyes got raining,
and even the dry dreams got wet (in tears),

my sleep cries in the corners of eyelids,

Tears fall and heart gets hurt.

To hear your voice,
To feel your touch,
I never would have thought,
I’d miss you this much.

Every sec, every moment, how I bear,

Every sec, every moment, i keep saying myself,

I've forgotten you,

Then why did your memories

make me cry.

I stole a piece of heaven,
And must now pay the cost.

The world seems so void,
And I am terribly annoyed,
That no matter what I say,

No matter what I do,
No matter what the time,
I still think of you.

I lie, unnoticed and uncared,

someone stupid or someone caring,

someone intelligent or someone in sorrow,

my life is just a game of “spin the wheel”

where it stops and when it stops, i have no control of

i only hope the wheel goes on spinning along nicely.

You finally look me in my face
I notice you can’t look me in my eye.
I want you to tell me everything will be fine.

I want to know everything will be go back to the way it was.
I want to know that you love me and won’t leave me,

but the look of your face says different.

The look on your face says it’s all over.

Your simple smile and eyes so bright,
couldn't resist you with all my might,
slowly but surely our friendship grew,
you taught me things I never knew.

I achieved things, I thought I never can,
your criticism made me a better man,
your soft words gave the healing touch,
whenever life seemed to be just too much.

Struggling and fighting I went on,
knowing its you I could depend on,
And then Suddenly like magic you were gone,
I was left all alone, all my dreams shattered and torn,
vows and promises all forgone.

I asked myself, where did I go wrong,
Things were supposed to be that way I guess,
It was I who started all the mess,
may you find happiness and joy, god bless,
For I would keep walking alone,
cherishing the sweet moments bygone... 

Oh, how I wish

I was not formed!

My memories go for a walk down the lane. Scrolling past my memory nostalgia sweeps me off the feet. School life and College life,the fun, the differences, the lessons learnt always has sparked off a debate as to which of them is the most influential.

My school life was fun.No REAL pressure to perform,no projects to do. The only place where you do nothing and be happy. Except for the occasional quarterly,half-yearly and annual exams, exams sound greek and latin to me! School was the place which taught me the value of friendship and to love friends.

But college life is the real catalyst to an unending world of fun,mis-understandings,sharing and true friends stick together,they gel together. College life and hostel fun teaches you a world of good characters,to help,to adjust and to get to know many people truely. So School life is good.But College life is Better.

I went for a Photo Shoot in nearby Damai LRT Station and Hostel. I need some experience in shooting Portraits seriously... I have been shooting Landscape picture the most. Since I'm in KL, I take this opportunity to meet up with my friends and go for a photo shoot. I was very enthusiastic in photography. We are suppose to meet up at 12pm at Hostel but ended up meeting everyone at 1pm. Next thing I know It's burning heat! OMFG! But luckily in between the shoot the sun got covered by clouds. Halfway shooting, I saw some kids dancing because of the music played in my friend’s car. Me and my friends also showed up some moves, It was fun. 

Below are the result of the shooting, Enjoy!!!

FOR TODAY...

Outside my window... it's a typical late September night; kinda gray with a few leaves still holding onto to their branches and rain

I'm thinking...this is going to be a crazy week...

I am wearing...my pajamas still. Migraines have a way of doing that...

I am remembering...Thanksgivings of years gone by

I am going...to the 7Eleven store in a little while, hopefully to find FOOD…I need to fill my stomach.

I am reading... nothing in particular at the moment, but I have some things coming up...maybe err…?

I am hoping... I don't forget to eat later this week...coz exams are coming up

On my mind...Oh, wow...my mind is almost like a briar patch of thoughts anymore...all scattered yet tangled together.

From the learning rooms...still working on my studies. Hopefully things should go smoother.

Noticing that...where do I start? Should I really get on a soapbox today? Okay, here's a simple one...apparently my migraine is not completely gone...

Pondering these words...<<>

In my room...things are looking very, um, un-seasonal?lol I need to fix that!

One of my favorite things~Thanksgiving :) The family, the food, the time to just slow down and be with folks you love. Priceless
