What can I tell you baby?

“What can I tell you baby? I’ve always been bad…”-Spike in Fool for Love, Season 5, Episode 7

That’s exactly what I’ve been for the past few weeks… I’ve been bad. I mean, the weeks have been a bit too innocent. Well, not innocent in the sense where nothing has been happening. I mean, besides me and Fizzy’s “sudden horny-ness” as Sarah has claimed, there have been things; it’s just that the things just don’t pass the bad test. So, come on, I had to do a little something at least.

So you see, one fine day, Fizzy, Sarah and me were just a-walking on the Holy Grounds with nothing in particular to do. We passed by the IRKHS Department and me, with my eyes always sharp to spot the slightest of potential-trouble-thingies, spotted one of those, well, thingies. Whaddaya know? It was a matric card gone astray; probably dropped by a careless owner. Being me, I just had to pick it up… And since Fizzy is somewhat of an illegal immigrant on the Holy Grounds, I showed her the card. Hehe... so of course we peeled of the semester sticker to make Fizzy ‘legal’… Oh, by the way, let me set things straight here; Sarah the oh-so ‘innocent’ one did not participate in the violation of this poor ol’ matric card. She was merely a spectator who was there with us. Although she did provide me with the idea to clip the matric card high up in the tree like a Christmas Tree ornament. As you can see:

[As you can see....here's the glorious card]

Hahaha….so that has to pass for something right? I mean, it’s been a boring month… I should be entitled to a little badness. Of course, I have to owe my badness to my mentor Hamzah. According to him, “UIA will never cleanse me from sitting behind him in Form 5”. Yup, just have to owe it to him.

Yeah, I guess I’ve been missing old times… All of sudden I’ve realized just how long ago I’ve actually spent quality time with my friends. Just how long ago I’ve seen all this dudes and duddettes…Well, but then again, with the stupid move to Seremban and all; I can’t really help it. If not I’ll be hanging around in Secret Recipe, McDonald’s or The Italian Kitchen just catching up with the going-ons in my friends’ lives.

I miss my school friends mostly; never mind the fact that I couldn’t care less about my old school. I’m just so darn relieved that I’m out of there… Well, it’s been yonks since I’ve met these old friends of mine; my partners-in-crime… Fairuz I go out with occasionally cos she’s the one who is always around. But however often I see them, I miss them all the same. Even if I never liked school, these people were the highlights of my school days, they are the ones who kept me sane and were always there when I needed to talk.

[L-R: Me, Fairuz and Iylia. Just hanging around at my house in Shah Alam.]

[One of the stupid things we did during the 6 month break! Hahah....but we had fun... L-R: Fairuz, Iylia and me...]

[L-R: Iylia, Me and Aima. This was taken in a 7-11 in Section 9]

[Fairuz and me during the ELS Retro Party]

FAIYLIN; Fairuz, Aima & Iylia… I miss you guys loads. Fairuz, my partner-in-crime back in Shah Alam; shopping together, organizing ELS get-together parties, taking crazy photos, singing til our voices were raw… We had the craziest times. Never being ‘normal’. Always doing things our way. Never wanting to conform to the ‘others’…We rocked, huh? We still won’t back down…until now. Screw all those crazy stereotype b*tches! Heheh…and remember YEAH??? That environmentalist thing we did? Whoa, those were good times. Doesn’t matter that we went through Hell just to finish up that project of ours. Playstation almost everyday for 6 months??? I sooo beat you playing You Don’t Know Jack. Heheh…Whatever it is, you’re one great dudette. Thanx for being a friend.

Iylia, I’ve known you since kindergarten…eventhough back then you used to bully the Hell out of me and I always had to complain to the teachers. It was only later that we found out we got along great despite our differences and we’re still good friends til now… We had lots of fun, didn’t we? Crazy pictures together with Fairuz, crazy drives around Shah Alam, mall hopping in Shah Alam, shopping and all that… That was crazy! Especially that 6 months gap we had after we finished our SPM? Wow, we were out almost every weekday driving to Damansara and stuff… Heheh…We were crazy right that time…? And always will be I suppose.

Aima, you were a new student in my class back in 1996… Then I found out that you were once the best friend of my cousin Wan Nadiah (who I am very close to). After that we became we started hanging out …Then, add Fairuz and Iylia to the mix, well, we get us. And I could never forget your driving… Damn, I could get a heart attack. I mean, seriously. Dahlaa you drove a Proton Waja which is super bulky that day, and you were speeding and swerving like mad. I was gripping the seats cos I kept getting thrown around in the back. Dudette, your driving is scary…And I haven’t seen you for like half a year… Miss you so much.

[My dear friend Suneetha]

Suneetha, I’ve known you since when? Standard 1 right? Man, that was a long way back…Time goes by and the then we were tossed into the same boat… although I have to say, your part of the boat was a lot worse than mine. We hung out every morning before class started, telling stories and stuff. And you were always there when I needed to talk. I haven’t seen you in a year… I hope you’re alright. Your birthday was on the 22nd of August, happy belated birthday… I hope you had a great day. Eventhough I don’t see you as often as I want to, you’re still a very dear friend. Hope you’re doing ok…

[Hamzah aka Harry Potter aka Gorilla aka Celcom Boy aka Hamverine etc]

Hah, Hamzah… Celcom Boy, Asam Boy, Gorilla, Hamverine, Harry Potter… Man, we sure had a lot of names for you. But then, whenever you got a new nickname, I got one as well; Hermione, Lin Grey… heh, yup, you were my partner-in-crime in class. Dropping accounts together, talking and never listening to whichever teacher who was teaching in front… From you I learned that I could actually throw quite well (remember that incident when I threw that eraser from the back of the class and it hit you square on the back of your head? Serves you right…. You do remember why I did that right?), learned that we should leave the library before the school bell rings (cos we got trapped in the library and you had to climb out the window, the THIRD FLOOR window! What if you fell??? Only to realize we weren’t trapped after all…it was just that the doorknob was faulty), never to play truth or dare with you, never to play Twister with anyone wearing socks (that’s you dearie…remember that time when we played Twister at Nadia’s with Alfred and Fairuz?), and that guys could be made into a best friend…. Thanks. Damn, we had great times….Apparently, your evilness rubbed off on me… Now I’m the one wreaking havoc in UIA. Hehe, and you asked me to change my pic to a smilier one; well, I did. I hope that’s better. Oh, and Hamz, how’s this pic of yours? Good for publicity yeah? I know you’re trying to be a playboy, thought I’d help add a bit of publicity…Nasib baik I didn’t put those arrows like the last time *laughs*

[Alfred, I know you're obsessed with hamsters]

Hah, Alfred aka Fahrol. My little brother supposedly. To think that I was once thought of you as an annoying little guy who worked in the Koperasi back in school with me. Now you’re waaaay taller than me (making me feel like a bloody midget) and no longer as annoying. Naa, kidding la. You’re not annoying. Maybe you’re a pest…. Kidding again. Heh, I caught up with you just a couple of weeks ago in Shah Alam. Glad to know you’re ok and stuff after all those false alarms which made me go to Shah Alam to look for you only to find out that you were on a holiday and on the other incident you just didn’t have any credit. I still owe you a strangling for making me worry like that. But whatever it is, you’re still a great little bro and a great friend. Thanx. Oh, and since you told me that it is haram for me to take a picture of you, I decided to put pics of hamsters since you like them so much.

[L-R: Me, Zeph, Julia and Sarah in OU]

[L-R: Zeph, me, Sarah and Aaina. Having a drink in Amcorp, we watched Ju-On after this]

[Me and Sarah getting geeky]

And last but not least, my fellow BENdits (Fizzy, Sarah, Zeph, Julia, Anis, Liyana and Aaina) whom I met on the Holy Grounds of UIA (I know I said school friends but UIA is a school, well, sort of, and I haven’t seen most of you since forever). Who would have thought that I’d find great friends there? I thought the only people I’d meet there would be a bunch of heavy religious people who don’t know how to have a bit of a laugh every now and then. But there you guys were… It was all fate. Me turning around to ask Julia

something and deciding to talk to her then follow her to the LP (Lepak Place) where I then met Zeph and Liyana. Then after sitting in class with Julia, I met Sarah and Aaina. Then when walking around with Julia, we bumped into Anis and we started talking. Lastly, after getting a bit scared of Fizzy in poetry class, I got to know her better after grouping up for our Poetry assignment. You guys kept me sane on the Holy Grounds. You guys were there whenever I needed someone to talk to or to have a laugh with. We had great times, huh? Cutting class to go watch a movie, hanging out at the LP, our trips to 14, gossiping and creating noise in class, silly presentations and everything else. You guys are great. Damn I miss all those. Now Julia and Zeph have both left UIA and Anis is in the main campus. I see Fizzy and Liyana only once in a while. Even Aaina I get to talk to only during class or when we happen to meet. Well, at least Sarah is my roomie and partner-in-crime in shopping. May we raise Hell on the Holy Grounds of UIA.

Whatever it is, I miss all of you guys loads! I mean it. I’m sorry if I didn’t mention anyone else. But you guys know who you are laa… If you call yourself a friend of mine then I miss you all the same. And I love all of you a lot. Take care and keep in touch!

[Ugh...he's just a pathetic basketball player in the movie. For like 10 seconds!]

Oh, and before I go… Check out this picture! I was watching the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie which came out in 1192 and guess who I saw in it? Yup, it’s Ben Affleck. Well, I think it’s him… His name didn’t even come out in the credits! And he was there for only 10 seconds or so. How sad. But I really do think it’s him. Like come on, look! Who else has that face??? Hehehe… to think that now he’s a bloody millionaire!

Okie dokie people...I'm done. Bye!
