"A Knight's Tale"

I felt the deep impression off this particular scene on the movie entitled

"A Knight's Tale"

"It is strange to think,
I haven't seen you since a month.

I have seen the new moon, but not you.

I have seen sunsets and sunrises,
but nothing of your beautiful face.

The pieces of my broken heart are so small
that they could be passed through the eye of a needle.

I miss you like the sun misses the flower;
like the sun misses the flower in the depths of winter.

Instead of beauty to direct its light to,
the heart hardens like the frozen world your absence has banished me to.

I next compete in the city of Paris,
I will find it empty and in the winter if you are not there.

Hope guides me,
that is what gets me through the day and the night.

The hope that after you're gone from my sight,
it will not be the last time that I look upon you."

~Flying~

Ahhh~
FLYING!!

i think i've been on a plane more that i am in my father's car!!
i just came back from KL yesterday,
using our very own MAS Airlines.

yup, i said i've been on the plane lots of times till i lost count,
but what's so special about this one??

the air stewardess was gorgeous!!
(well, seriously, pretty air stewardess for MAS is a rare sight)
ooppss, that's not the case..
i was seated at the window seat, 18A to be exact.
and this sexy lady, was sitting on the other side, 18 D.

DON'T GET ME WRONG!
I WAS NOT STALKING!
hear me out 1st!!

i have this bad habit of sleeping in the seat even before the air steward or stewardess shows the safety demonstration (which i know that i can do with my eyes closed).
after half an hour flying,
i stretched and she caught my attention,
she was just sitting there reading CLEO (i guess),

and the moment she flip the page,
a few pieces of lottery ticket was between the pages!!

hahahaha....
i know, i know,
there's nothing wrong with buying lottery tickets,(well, who doesn't want to get rich FAST?)
but the look on her face was PRICELESS!!!


hmmm....
will be flying back to KL again this saturday...
haiz....
ow yeah!
for those of you who always uses the KLIA Wifi internet connection,
it is now limited to 2 hours usage only!!!
urggghhhh....

~2010~

Wow~
it's been quite some time that i updated my blog...
and in a flash, here comes 2010!!
i mean LITERALLY, the firecrackers burst right beside me and gave me a temporary deafness while i was on the phone with my Kuching friends!!

Celebrated Christmas and New Year at home...
ahhhh~
it was ok,i guess...
the only thing that kept popping in my head is that...
for these celebrations in 2010,
will i be home?
or will i be somewhere at sea?
it kept on bothering me...
urgh....

hmmm....
well, to wrap up 2009,
it was a year full of Sh*T~
and there are lots of it...
don't feel like mentioning it...
nothing was achieved, and it was full of bumps, obstacles and booby traps!!
if i had made a list of things to achieve,
i don't think there's any "DONE" in the list!!!

two thousand ten...
Definitely going to do something about it!!!!
there's lots of things in the planning!(but don't want to list out)
Aja aja Fighting!!! (a phrase from a korean drama)




Since this is a year of the tiger,
i would like to dedicate this song to all who have big dreams ahead!!

EYE OF THE TIGER

Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger.... woah woah woah

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds, till we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger.... woah woah woah

Risin' up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger.... woah woah woah

The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger

2nd December!!!! Officially 21!!

LalaLaaaa~
Birthday!!
growing older....
age is just a number!!
none the wiser~
the older we grow,the heavier the burden~

hmmm...

"celebrating" alone in melaka~

and the worst thing is that SHE deleted her facebook account...
WHY??!!!
:(
what a great gift for my birthday~
urgh...
let time heal....
God..
give her the strength to stand again......
Amen~

~Complication?~

haaaaaiihhh......

a long sigh....

~Complications~


People like to involve themselves in complicated situations~
They can't seem to see the obvious...
and why is that?

Guys and girls~
this is what you should do....
make a list!!
Pros and Cons!!!!

Why do you cloud your headS (yes,with an "s",sebab ada yg berfikir ngan kpala lutut) with unnecessary complications?

if you know that it's wrong and nothing good is going to come, from that decision,
then???
you need someone to knock your forehead and say: wey bahlol, dah taw xboleh,knape nak juga?

urrrggghhhh....

sometimes i wonder why human is at the top of the food chain~
MOST OF THEM DON'T DESERVE IT!!

keep it calm!
don't mix your feelings with reality..

tackle the problem~
don't let the problem tackle you~

My Training Ships!! (cadet times)

I've never talked about my training ship yet... it's not that interesting really, but just another chapter in my life.

My 1st ship...
M.T. Bunga Melati Dua
Type: Chemical Tanker
Length: 177.15m
Breadth: 30m

My 2nd ship...
M.V. Bunga Bidara
Type: Container Carrier
Length: 176.80m
Breadth: 27.3m

My 3rd ship...
M.V. Bunga Seroja Dua
Type: Container Carrier
Length: 317.80m
Breadth: 43.20m

hmmm...
My first ship..
M.T. Bunga Melati Dua..
(M.T. stands for Motor Tanker)
sounds familiar,right??
jackpot!!
it's the infamous incident that happened the other day..

the ship which was hijacked by the Somalian pirates!!
but God was good to me...
i already disembarked the ship when it was hijacked...
(Thank God!! Amen!!)

This ship is basically the 1st ship that i went onboard..
it really shocked me when the ship that big is actually run by THIRTY plus people!!!
This ship carries Dangerous Chemicals and Palm Oils...
mmmm...
I was under the observation of two different captains..
the first captain was Capt. Anten Bosco Almeida then he was relieved by Capt. Amser Yusuf Daud...
The route of this ship is Far east and Europe..
so...
the places that i've went onboard this ship was----
Malaysia, Singapore, China, Taiwan, South Korea, (then coming back to Malaysia), passing Suez, Rotterdam, U.K., France...(i think that's all)


And....
my second ship is
M.V. Bunga Bidara.

(M.V. stands for Motor Vessel)

there's nothing special about this ship...
except that 80% of the personnel onboard was Phillipinos!!!

the manning was handled by the Parola(means lighthouse*if I'm not mistaken) from the Philippines...
i took this chance to learn a little bit of Tagalog~
and sad to say, when you are trying to learn a new language, it is always the bad words that are being taught first!!
hahaha~
This ship carries containers of various cargoes...
I was under the observation of two different captains here also..
the first captain was Capt. Bayani Acquino Belale then he was relieved by Capt. Mustaffar Bin Maarof...
The route of this ship is Far east and India..
Malaysia, Singapore, China, (back to Malaysia), India(Visakhapatnam and Chennai)


And my third ship...
M.V. Bunga Seroja Dua..
This ship was on anchorage when i went onboard..

the reason for the third ship was just to complete my seatime..
The ship doesn't actually move...
due to the world economy breakdown....
hmm...
onboard this ship,
i was under the observation of Capt Mohamad Mohaidin Bin Abdul Ghani..
The route was supposed to be Malaysia, China, Taiwan, U.S.A, Canada...(om not sure about the route...)
but when i was on this ship, she was only anchoring at Hongkong..

i think that is all about my training ship...
and i really enjoyed when i was on these ships...
looking forward to join onboard again to see different parts of the world!!!

~Harmonica~

The harmonica is an instrument which is played by blowing air into it or drawing air out by placing lips over individual holes or multiple holes. The pressure caused by blowing or drawing air into the holes causes a reed or multiple reeds to vibrate up and down creating sound. Each chamber has multiple, variable-tunes, There are many types of harmonicas, including diatonic, chromatic, tremolo, orchestral, and bass versions.

The harmonica is used in blues and American folk music, jazz,classic The harmonica has other nicknames, especially in blues music, including: "harp", "french harp", and "mouth organ."

AND
That's a little fact from the wikipedia~

mmmm.....
Let me refresh...
My first harmonica....
that was in year....2003 or 2004..
hahaha..
i bought a harmonica wrapped in a box from a supermarket..
(a cheap one,of course!! i think it was around rm 7-8)
when i reached home, i started blowing and inhaling through it!!
and guess what, i can already play my childhood nursery rhymes!!
hehee...
for your information,
I've never gone to any musical instrument practices..
and i don't know how to read the notes and i don't know what is a chord.
:P
but so far, the comments from my friends are positive,
so....
judge me when u hear me play~
:D

so far I've bought around 7 or 8 harmonicas..
just collecting for fun..
and i really love my current harmonica!!
i don't really know what type of harmonica is it,
i think it is a chromatic harmonica or something....
i bought it around rm50~*i think*
urgh.. I'm SO forgetful!!!
when i checked online,the price is
WOOOOTTT!!!
i just checked, a whooping $300!!
that is around rm 1000!!!
harmonica can be that expensive?!!!
*want to buy one next time*

hmmm...
Why a harmonica,
why not a keyboard or a guitar??
because harmonica is soooooo portable!!!
:D
i brought it with me all the time..
especially onboard..
ok, time to join Gethro and Iqbal again.
Adios~

i always play this song....

Aladdin-A Whole New World
I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath - it gets better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be

A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me
