After The 60minutes Ended

Yep, it's ended...

i think i did something meaningful...

Turning off the lights upstairs before the Earth Hour even started,

then i went downstairs to watch the 8TV show, 

as i was curious of how they were gonna cease the transmission...

Through the LIVE transmission,

i saw hundreds or thousands of people gathering outside Berjaya Times Square,

each of them holding a candle...

The host said they were gonna walk around the city for an hour,

in order to show support towards the campaign...

After the 10 seconds countdown,

The turning-off of the lights was unforgettable,

Several screenshots of different places in our country were showed...

It was truly an unforgettable moment,

even for me,

who was just in front of the TV...

Then,

they finally ended the transmission at 8.31 or the 32nd minute, i think...

Quickly, my eldest bro turned off the TV and we both went upstairs...

Fact: i couldn't turn off the lights downstairs as my maid hasn't finished doing the housework at that moment, and when i tried to turn off the lights outside, my maid stopped me as they said it was for safety reasons...Ok, no objection there...

Went upstairs, the younger one was trying to sleep(He IS sleeping now)

My elder bro and I were trying to find something to do,

but to no avail, there was nothing we could do as there ain't electricity at home...

I thought i could also get to sleep like my younger brother was trying...

Neh, couldn't,

I just couldn't go to sleep that early...

Hence, i suggested to my elder bro that we go cycling around the neighbourhood,

That'll be fun as i could see the whole neighbourhood turning their lights off, i thought...

However, the younger one woke up all of a sudden,(this was when i found out he wasn't sleeping at all)

and he said that my bike's tyre is burst,

air can't be pumped in no matter how hard grandpa tried...

I was in deep thought for a while, 

and a light bulb 'appeared' above my head.

'Why don't we go take a walk, around the neighbourhood?' i suggested with a grin.

Soon, 3 of us came to an agreement and decided to go out and stroll...

After informing the maids,

we went out...

Curiously, we walked,

to see if everyone was doing their part in supporting the campaign...

I'm glad that most of the residents in my residential area did...

We walk to Taman Makmur, Taman Templer(where my grandpa's and my 'old house' were situated) and lastly the roundabout at Mon't Jed...

FYI(For your information), 

these residential areas aren't as far as you think, 

they're just near, 

really really near, 

if you get what i mean...

We came out about a quarter to nine,

and finally reached home at 9.18pm, to be exact...

And we took a rest, before we turned on the TV and see how 8TV continued to broadcast again...

I didn't know what my bros where doing upstairs when we were resting ourselves...

But, i knew i was cutting and trying to eat an orange downstairs,

in the kitchen...

It was really dark,

Dark like when an eclipse falls...

I was afraid of i would get my fingers cut,

but i thought,

it was worth the try...

Hence, i cut the orange to four equal quarters, 

and ate them, of course...

Phew, Fortunately...

and then,

here i am, 

turning on the computer and typing here...

After Earth Hour Ended

Earth Hour 2009

It's lights off for an hour tonight -  for a good cause.

Several companies and agencies have thrown their weight behind the Earth Hour 2009 campaign by pledging to turn off lights from 8.30pm to 9.30pm.

The campaign, an annual event initiated by the WWF(World Wide Fund for Nature) in 2007 to get households and businesses to turn off non-essential lights for an hour, aims to raise awareness about global climate change.

Now that you're aware of the global warming and the dramatic climate change, why not do our part in protecting our only home - the Earth?

Our effort may be small. However, i believe a small effort can make a big difference in the fight against global warming.

Turn off the non-essential lights now, shall we?

Earth Hour 2009

Life Ain't Easy

'Long time no see, Canteen'

that's what i tried to converse to the Canteen,

when i came down from the familiar staircase,

it feels strange...

'How long has it been since i came down here and had a meal?'

as i walk,

'two months, i think' 

'Nay, on second thought, it's only 1 month'

I bought a plate of Nasi Lemak, which is my favourite, and really enjoyed it.

'How long has it been since my stomach felt so full?'

It was really satisfying,

to be full...

Ever since that day,

I decided not to use money if i have an option,

Cuz i have not much money left...

I could have been sad and angry right now,

that my dad doesn't wanna give me pocket money for this month...

I was rather unsatisfied and furious, 

but not now...

Y'know why i love the piano?

i always did,

cuz it always has a nice, soothing effect...

Okay, despite not playing the piano,

I could always listen to it, k?

I've already forgotten the reason that dad of mine doesn't want to give me what he ought to give, as a parent...

Perhaps i don't even know why...

A mere guess would do the trick at these times,

maybe due to the overuse of the phone...

Dunno, i know that i spent beyond the limit,

i know it's my fault for spending that much...

but do you really have to do this?

withdrawing the SIM card is okay for me now,

it matters but there's nothing i can do...

But do you really have to do this???

Not giving pocket money as well???

I don't get it, are you calling me to die???

Cuz these days, i think i'm falling sick as i didn't have my breakfast and lunch...

The dinner was a relieve as i thought i finally had something to eat...

But it didn't last long till i felt hungry again...

Living without a phone, 

they thought it doesn't really matter,

for a mere child or student like me...

But it matters,

it affects,

it's a nuisance,

which changes everything...

the distance,

So close, yet,

So far...

A gap is born...

Recently, some of my friends have been complaining why hadn't i replied their messages...

Sorry, guys,

cuz i can't help it...

Some of you said i should go get a SIM card, which is quite affordable now...

Well, the word "affordable"

isn't in my dictionary, not now,

not this time...

As I've mentioned above,

i have not much money left...

You expect me to buy a SIM card and use it like i don't care?

No...

Absolutely not, i ain't nuts, not just yet...

Perhaps till the day,

when someone gives me pocket money again,

i'll be back...

PLEASE

Do Not Think That I'm Ignoring You,

It's just that i can't do anything about it...

Life really ain't easy, right?

A Twist In My Day

Looking out the window, they embarked...

They thought i didn't want to go...

Why wouldn't i want to go?

I wanted, y'know?

It's just because my younger cousin sister's here, staying at our house since Wednesday till tomorrow...

She's only eight, okay?

Well, the irresponsible adults thought they could bring her along and ask if there are any more tickets left when they reach there, Bukit Jalil National Stadium...

Shouldn't they just think carefully?

What if there aren't any tickets left?

What are ya gonna do?

Leave her alone? 

Out of the enormous stadium?

Initially, there was another suggestion...

Leave her with the maids at home?

Like hell she would know how to MIX with my maids...

They don't even know each other, unlike my sister, which was younger than my cousin sister for a year, FYI.

How is she gonna pass the time till we come back?

And they aren't even asking why didn't i want to go...

For obvious reasons(as mentioned above), that's why...

And I'm already way too tired after getting my hair cut...

It was about 45 minutes to an hour, I guess...

Cause my mom who is a stingy person when it comes to our daily needs or supplies...

She wanted to save money, and hence brought me there to have my hair cut...

RM3 for a trainee hairdresser, barber, or hairstylist, or whatever you call them to cut my hair...

Man, 

I thought she would get my hair done in a blink of an eye...

Nevertheless,

It didn't turn out as I expected...

She cut, for a little while,

And then asked her mentor, or the professionals' opinion...

And continued to cut again...

Ask, cut, ask, cut....

This cycle has been repeated for dunno how many times....

And I've finished scanning through a magazine, and read about it...

Tired of waiting,

My mom is always impatient,

And she was also the lazy one,

She ordered my little cousin sister and my sister to come up looking for me and ask me if I'm done...

For 2 times, they came up, 

Asking how many minutes more they have to wait...

LOL, all of the trainees and professional were looking at them...

But they didn't even show any sign of being afraid...

They were just running up and down, smiling all the time...

Finally, it was the last time they two came up,

They handed me a phone and informed me that my mom called me to phone her after i'm done...

Immediately, i was then "=="

Damn it,

Can't she just wait for a little longer?

After all, it was her idea to bring me here to cut,

Not that I wanted to be brought here...

Phew, 

Finally, I'm done,

After paying the 3 ringgits,

I walked out and looked at the time,

Wow, it's already 5:04pm...

Quickly, i started to call my house phone number...

Again, "Damn it"

The line couldn't get through...

I retried for 5 times, and fortunately, i heard my bro's voice...

He was told to let his mama know that I'm done...

Patiently, i waited,

But the cruel Sun was blazing, 

scorching the ground under my feet...

Besides i was way too tired already...

About five minutes, i waited...

And my drive home was finally here...

Now back at home,

After taking my shower,

it was already 5.32pm...

I jumped onto my bed, and tried to sleep,

as my eyes were really really damned tired...

I closed my eyes,

and gradually fell to sleep...

All of a sudden, 

a familiar, yet, soft voice came to my ears...

She woke me up and told me to have my dinner...

OK, i woke up,

However, i wasn't ready for dinner...

Cause i didn't wanna have it...

Closed my eyes, AGAIN~

Then, i was waken up for a few times later...

Thus, i made up my mind...

For my cousin sister's sake,

I decided not to go...

Perhaps they just thought i didn't want to go, for no reason...

Actually, i wanted someone to ask me to go, and think of a solution so that all of us could go together...

But, none of them turned up and ask...

Except for one little girl,

Which made me grin~

She asked if i wanna go,

i didn't answer..

I asked her back, the same question...

Cause if she wants to go, i have no choice but to stay at home...

At last, she walked out of my room, 

and darted towards the MPV...

Yep,

And they're gone,

towards the stadium,

to watch Disney On Ice...

Lol,

it's already 7.30pm, 

They should have arrived by now...

As they're started their journey an hour ago...

Hopefully, they enjoyed the show...^^

Unlike me...

Will this holiday end without any memories to be remembered?

Yep, i think so...

[The Day I Missed A Show]

FaitH FadeS

Exam's finally over...

This exam's nothing at all...

It was just a mere test...

Which i didn't really care...

Look, 

I did my best in studying, alright?

Even for the biology test,

Which i only scored 12 marks out of 100...

That test was held right after that night he slapped and withdrew the SIM card...

I really hate it when he says everything in the house is his property and belongs to him...

Oh, never mind that...

As a result of the misfortune of mine,

I went to bed really early that day,

Which was 10.15pm...

And i woke up early at dawn to study,

I simply doubt anyone knew about that...

Besides,

I didn't even walk out of the class during the recess,

Just to read and revise that lame ol' Biology...

Well,

After getting the results,

I thought i shouldn't have studied anyway,

It made no difference at all...

Look,

I don't care if i get good or bad grades...

I don't care if my parents are upset...

I don't care if my parents are frustrated...

I don't care if i get scolded...

The way they act...

The way they talk...

The way they punish...

The way they teach...

The way they converse...

The way they react...

They're totally freakin' me out!!

Nevertheless,

After all these years,

I've been through what i had to...

Now,

I'm used to the yelling,

I'm used to the shouting,

I'm used to the staring,

I'm used to the glaring,

Which really pisses me off!!

Have they ever tried to understand?

Don't even think about it...

Well,

Do you comprehend?

I wish you did...
