Super massive black hole…

It was a Sunday night, just got my heart torn apart seeing him leave, again…well on my way back home and dad’s phone rang, neighbours said our area is having a total blackout…yeap, no electricity… Great, what else now…

The news only adds to my sorrow and yet, there’s no escape..I’ll still have to deal with it… Couple minutes later, I came up to my living neighbourhood, yeap, definitely no electricity whatsoever, because all I see was blackness. The whole neighbourhood is cover with pitch black, just like in those zombie movies.. wait, that’s not a very good example… Anyhow…

I reached at the front porch, the emergency light in the house is working, but not for long. I rushed to my room, brush my teeth before the battery runs out. As I close the toilet door, the silence hit me like a wall, I never knew silence can sound so loud, so loud until it pierces through your ears and to your heart.

I went out to the balcony and then I saw the most beautiful thing… The silver sparkle of the moon drenched the cars in gentle glow… I never notice how bright a moonlit sky can be, so bright yet so non-aggressive. Every object under the moonlight seems to be singing lullaby in their own natural rhythm and it was so calming. ALL this, would never be noticed with every household illuminating their house with artificial lighting.. It gets me wonder, how many wonders of nature have we missed when we were all too busy soaking in our man-made technology, how many such beautiful nights have slip through our fingers when we were too busy curling up in the arms of our concrete walls.

A lot, I guess.

And so, throughout the night, I lay on a stretcher out on the balcony, looking at the stars. Dad was talking with neighbours on the tarmac, laughing away in the cool night breeze.

It was such a beautiful ambience, I shall never forget. Shall never forget that I was once lying under the stars, contemplating, ‘dancing’ in my mind, talking to him on the phone, accompanied by bright half moon.

Soon, I notice I too was drenched in silver sparkle, grateful that I was a part of the night. But there’s still one thing missing…

  The moon ~ Very, very dark… If you can see the dim glow of a window, that’s my room…

Me on the balcony…contemplating life *cough*

The night ended with electricity coming back on around 12am, I was half asleep by then…what a night~

His world … me in it~

I almost left out the sweetest part of my stay at M-town last time…which is a tour to Tampin Hill… He used to spend time there and this time, I get to feel what he feels in this land.

I hurt my ankle the day before the visit and so, when he wanted me to scale the wet forest floor with slippery stone, I wasn’t at the best of myself, in other word, I got grumpy… Sorry, bb.. *puppy face*

But anyhow, it was quite a journey, I get to know him better now, it felt like he has shown me a secret world of his, letting me into a part of him and I was touched…

Up the winding road… Here we are~ Such a quiet place, isn’t it? Walk down the hill, and you’ll see the cold spring, filled with fresh water…Him, his brother & dad… One of my favourites, the water is so clear, it’s almost invisible… Me taking it all in ~My favourite shots of the day…   In case you’re wondering, it’s reflection of water casted on stone…it’s beautiful, huh? Attempting to build a dam, *beavers* Boys will always be boys… Here’s their project 

Wishing I could stay in my bubble, where only people I care could get in, it’s less complicated there…just like his world…I wish i wish…

竹河访友记

Well, I went to Sungai Buluh to Ave’s on one fine Saturday. Took the LRT to Bandar Tasik Selatan, then switch to KTM for Sungai Buluh. Back, the same way. All in all, I spent a good 3 hours commuting, not really that bad, minus the being pushed, elbowed and uncomfortably close to strangers part. I actually had time to just sit there, think about whatever I want to think about. I guess that is why sometimes I kinda like taking the LRT and KTM. You don’t need to be focusing on the road as when you’re driving, all you have to do is just sit there, observe people and maybe reflect upon yourself. And so I did, something I haven’t been doing for quite a while.

I thought about how my life has turned out so far, how I can make it more alive, how many mistakes I’ve made and how I’m gonna make it right…so many thought and poof, I am there.

So, back to that day~ Ave' skip her pottery class for me that day,lol… We talked, sneaked into people’s under renovation house, eat McD and for the ultimate goal, I handed her the crime of girl’s sin… yeap, she and I bought a bag which is sent to my place, so there I was, handing her purchase in person,lol.

 

Ave’s bag That’s a rare chance to sit in the “khas” cabin, usually it’s just full.. At first, Ave and I were like “Look! It’s plants in snail shell!” but then, we realised it’s actually SEAshell… *wink* Vine on a railway log…such a beautiful combination Ave’s birthday pressie last year… Spilling with twister fries, joy joy… Got ruumz?? Sunny day~ bloody hot…I can almost smell sunburn… Now, here’s the target of our sneak-in mission… The doorway to its garden Welcome to Ave’s backyard, with own Jacuzzi & pool, kidding..

Isn’t it beautiful? The reflection of water on the ceiling, right next to the glass balcony… It amazes me how people get so rich, life on the fast lane, so to speak… I wish life was easier for everyone, but then again, life might not be worth living if it’s so simple…

Lately, school has started, and I withdrawn myself quite a lot, putting on a face just so people don’t see the real me. I miss being around my friends a lot, when it’s just so real, no faking, no drama and they’ll always be there for me when I needed them the most, unlike mates when only talks to me when they’re in need.

Cheers to life,

KC

Shhh…… it’s a surprise~

One week left until I have to dive back to my third semester, and I sat there thinking, hmm, what could I do? It felt like the two-month holiday just whooshed by, so many plans got set up and replaced, if not cancelled. Then, there’s a crazy idea lights up instantly - - why not I just hop on a bus and go to M-town… (that’s my pet name for “Melaka town”)?? And so, I did, and the best part? HE, D-O-E-S-N’-T know~

And so, my adventure begins … ^^

My packs …Ready for take off … so nervous …The bus was only half full, but a girl had a huge human size bear with her … so, the bus load would be 15 people + 1 bear.  I am here ~ the night was breezy, what a beautiful night… That’s my bed for the rest of the vacay…There seems to be an ocean theme going on, doesn’t it? That’s him ~ And so, what’s for dinner? Best Hokkien mee in town along with the refreshing shave ice … and fried eggy oyster … and some yummy ‘wat dan ho’ … yum *drool drool* Ever wonder what happens to the good-old cassettes in this era? Well, some of them landed here… brings back some memories,doesn’t it? Getting into the CNY spirit early… Aren’t they adorable?? Such a beautiful sight … Notice the combination of the tiles on the floor with the flower?
