Hey friends,

I just signed ONE’s petition calling on the African Union to keep its promise to the new unity government of Zimbabwe and I hope you will too:

The consequences of years of poor governance in Zimbabwe are poverty and disease on a tragic scale demanding a global response. Public hospitals have been without running water for months, creating a petri dish for easily preventable killers such as cholera. More than 3,000 people have died in Africa’s worst cholera epidemic in 19 years. Schools have been shut down because teachers can’t be paid. The agricultural sector has collapsed, half the population requires emergency food aid, and humanitarian aid groups are struggling to keep up.

Now Zimbabwe has a new unity government, but in order for it to have any chance to tackle these problems, it is going to need the African Union to do everything in its power as guarantor of the new government.

Its just too easy to sign this petition, and if this is easy, why don’t we just sign the petition to make Zimbabwe a better place?

Add your name to the petition and show the African Union that the world is watching what it does in Zimbabwe:

Gosh gosh. I was so anticipated about the Going Green thingy but in the end i have to postpone it first. So they were to say that there will be some changes in the student’s affairs department, so i will have to wait for the new president to be elected. Blegh! I want Amali because he’s an easy guy to talk to. Now i have to wait till next week to discuss and present the proposal to orang orang yang sepatutnya. My enthusiasm hilang already. …

Went to Piccadilly yesterday night with cousins and cousin’s boyfriend a.k.a. Nigel’s bandmate. (Such a small world) Piccadilly is good!

Cousins!

I was tuning to Light and Easy earlier this evening and i listened a song entitled Where Do Broken Heart Goes, sang by Whitney Houston. I were touched, for a while, so i downloaded the song and listen it for quite a couple of times. And i like it. Is it because the song has got something to do with me? No i don’t really think so. But we won’t know what will happen in future, blahh.. whatever la.

So here goes, i’m singing!! :

I know it’s been some time
But there’s something on my mind
You see, I haven’t been the same
Since that cold November day…
We said we needed space
But all we found was an empty place
And the only thing I learned
Is that I need you desperately…

So here I am
And can you please tell me… oh

Chorus:
Where do broken hearts go
Can they find their way home
Back to the open arms
Of a love that’s waiting there
And if somebody loves you
Won’t they always love you
I look in your eyes
And I know that you still care, for me

I’ve been around enough to know
That dreams don’t turn to gold
And that there is no easy way
No you just can’t run away…
And what we have is so much more
Than we ever had before
And no matter how I try
You’re always on my mind

Where do broken hearts go
Can they find their way home
Back to the open arms
Of a love that’s waiting there
And if somebody loves you
Won’t they always love you
I look in your eyes
And I know that you still care, for me

And now that I am here with you
I’ll never let you go
I look into your eyes
And now I know, now I know…

Where do broken hearts go
Can they find their way home
Back to the open arms
Of a love that’s waiting there
And if somebody loves you
Won’t they always love you
I look in your eyes
And I know that you still care, for me..

Yes, it is a very memorable and sad day for me today. I spent half an hour crying like a child who losts his mom. How come? Yea, how come. 2 of my bestfriends left me for New Zealand today. Grace Lee, a very good friend from IPBA, and Nia, a very very good brother and friend since i was 13.

I’ll miss the dinner times with Grace, the pasar-malam hunting and also the lepak times with her. It is sad to think that we won’t have the chance to do that anymore because we won’t be seeing each other for 3 years, then she will be teaching in some place only God knows when i come back from France. I don’t even dare to think about it. But at least Grace didn’t cry just now so when i sent her off, i controlled my emotion even though i burst out earlier on.

And i’ll miss the times i spent with Nia in Oldtown Kopitiam, McDonalds, bowlings, movies, and everything. I remembered when we were both working in a hotel back in 2006, we were scolded by the manager because we played with the telephone. No, actually we didn’t play the phone, its just that Nia was in the new wing, and i was at the old wing so we just want to meet up for lunch. And there are just so many many more memories that we had together, and its all coming back into my mind!

But when i saw Nia just now, i could not help it but to burst my tears. His parents were so good. We took pictures together, his parents were asking about my studies, and stuffs like that. Being so close with him for 7 years makes me flash back all the times we had together. The quarrels, the eating sessions, the problem solving, and everything. The moment he called me and ask where i am, i became so nervous that i could not stop my heart from beating so fast. At that time, i know he’ll be leaving, and when Fik cried, i can’t tahan anymore. Tears keep rolling on my cheek and i couldn’t stand but to cry.

Later, more and more people are leaving, and i will be leaving too. I hope that all goes well for them, and i will pray that they will always be healthy.

*emo mode*

I keep thinking about my family. Dad will bring us out to search for food when it is breakfast, lunch, tea, dinner or supper time. Mom will cook us so many delicious food when its weekend. We’ll go over to Chey’s place whenever we feel like going because her house is super big. (and there they have lots of snacks too) Erjie, Kor, San Chey and me will go out shopping because that’s what we always do during the weekends.

Here, when i ask someone out, they will always say ok but in the end they didn’t turn up. With dad, we can go as far as we can even though he is tired.

Here, its hard to date people for dinner on time (after Adam and the gang went overseas) because they just don’t bother about other people. With mom, we can always have food whenever we are hungry

Here, sometimes i just feel unsecured because there are alot of weird people around me. At home, i won’t feel that way because i have mom and dad to protect me.

I miss my family…

1. I am worried. I realized that i am not progressing in my studies. I rarely study after classes, i start doing my homeworks and assignments only at night, and i don’t speak much in classes anymore. I feel ashamed.

2. I deleted my Friendster account. I tried numerous time sending message to my friends to acknowledge that i want to delete my account and i want them to email me their messenger id but the web page kept making error. I was mad, so i deleted without any hesitation.

3. Weirdo is a disaster. He won’t stop doing his weird stuff and i really can’t stand sitting beside him anymore. What’s the benefit for humming while the lecturer is in the class, yawning while kissing the table, and more weird stuffs. Come on, stop all that already! Hate it or not, you are the jerkiest among all jerks and i won’t talk to you even if you start a conversation! (I did that already actually)

4. I have a fever and a sore throat, and my voice is slowly fading away. *Catch it back!*

5. I don’t like literature because it is difficult and i have not yet see the benefit of reading literature books without understanding it properly. Besides, we still have not pass our B2 exam yet so why rush on preparing for C1?

6. It really get on my nerves when my message to somebody is not replied. Please understand that everybody has their limited credit to make calls and i am so sure that it isn’t that hard to reply only 1 message or to borrow 1 message from a friend.

7. Hypocrites are all around me but i can’t hate them anymore. All these people are the parts and parcels of my life in college so like it or not, i have to be strong and ignore my feelings.

Imagine, one self can have so many complaints that she/he can ever think of. But in this case, i am not demanding for anything. I just want to let things out because i don’t like sharing my complaints with anybody. In fact, nobody likes to hear them anyways! I know i don’t. This month sure will be quite a bad month for me but i won’t let it last long. I will try my best to build up my confidence and i won’t let other people step on me anymore. I will wave goodbye to those who ignored me, and i will welcome new winds that will share alot of things with me.

I am now hoping for a new and a better day..

1.what were u doing right before u got this tagging questions?

“But i’m so gonna miss you.. Sobb sobb..” that is what little Ryan will say everytime he leaves us, his three aunties. And now, little by little, i am learning to speak like how he speaks. Now i am so going to miss home very much.

Can’t help but to think that i will not be in next year’s family photo. Sigh.

I do hope that time will fly faster so that i will come back from France and celebrate CNY again with my dearest family, and celebrate Grandma’s birthday on the 3rd day of CNY. But i do hope that time will fly as slow as it could so that i will not have to part with my family so soon.
