These words are my own, from my heart flow

TWILIGHT

Before I start on anything, click the link up there ^ Forgive me for my poor choice of colours, haha. I could change it to red and white... Whatever. I got it from Elia's MSN PM. So, do your part and read. Seriously. A lot to read, but it won't be a waste of time.

Okay, so. Long post ahead - don't say I didn't warn you ;)

Hello, Blogger! I've been away for quite some time, eh? Two days. Not really. I have been going online every day since I last blogged but alas, was too lazy to update on what I've been doing. So, let's see:

• Choral speaking at school

It was alright, went through Angela's iPod and found pictures from 2008, and 2009. Memories :') I don't remember much on what happened during the two long hours of practise, heh. Mommy came at 10:45 or so to pass the cakes from Baker's Cottage - It's a last minute thing, really. I forgot to remind Mommy that I had to bring tummy-filling food to Aqilah's place the night before.

After practise, Azraa's mom was kind enough to send Aqila, Angela and I to Aqilah's house as Azraa had to drop by anyway, so, thank you so much, Aunty!

• 2 Hormat class party, Aqilah Azlan Baqee's place in SS1

The three of us were the first ones to arrive, and the moment I set eyes on Aqilah's Guitar Hero set on Wii, I asked her for permission if we could play whilst waiting for the rest to come. Aqilah, being the good host she is, said, "Omg playlah!" Hehe. It was Aqila and Angela's first time playing Guitar Hero with the actual instruments, so after an attempt to pass a song or two, they became addicted... Just like me. It took us, probably more than 20 times to pass the song One Way Or Another by Blondie. Even on Easy mode! The drums were tough, but we did it in the end!

I sound like we went on an adventure in the woods or something, haha.

We played other songs after that, and Eye Of The Tiger is probably the easiest song to play on all three instruments (Guitar, bass and drums) with Stephanie playing the guitar, yeah, she arrived at Aqilah's place around 15 minutes after we did. Stephanie is seriously excellent at everything she does, but more to that later.

Everybody else came at around 12 plus, and since Aqila, Angela, Stephanie and I already had our many gos at playing Guitar Hero, we gave up the band set to whoever who wanted to try to play/sing. Hanisa has a really nice singing voice.

Fortunately, since Aqilah has a piano at home, it was Stephanie's time to shine! She played us her piece which she played during the international competition; yes, the one that she won 4th place worldwide. Her fingers were so fast, I can't really describe it! I recorded her playing, it's in my phone, but the first thing Stephanie said to me before she played was, "You record, but don't post on the internet ah!" Haha. Next, she played My Heart Will Go On, or more famously known as the song from Titanic. I swear to God, she made me close to tears. I'm not kidding. The way she plays, wow. And the music... Wow. Yes, I recorded her playing it as well. Someone requested she played that Beauty and the Beast song, and so she did. At one point of the song, Angela said to me, "Are you seriously crying?!" -_-" Sigh, no words, and really, no words at all can describe how beautifully Stephanie plays the piano.

Did I mention she has also completed her diploma in violin? Or maybe she's in Grade 8, I'm not so sure but yeah. Still, she's just fourteen and already majors in two orchestra instruments!

We were thinking of songs for Stephanie to play next, and Aqila asked me, "Can I'm Yours be played on the piano?" to which I said back, "Of course not, kan semua guitar?" Silly, silly me, how I could doubt Stephanie like that -.- We asked her to play I'm Yours, and she said, "You mean this song right?" And started playing it. Amazing. She also played River Flows In You by Yiruma, after she listened to it for the first time. Playing by ear, perfectly. I wish I could do that.

It's hard to get over the fact that we have our very own pianist in class, so I asked her to play some famous composer like Mozart or Beethoven's piece. She played both. I'm jealous.

The pizza arrived soon after, so everybody flooded outside to eat. Karyna came shortly too, whilst Stephanie was still playing the piano. She brought spaghetti along with her, Seri and Husnina got a ride from her too. Now, about Aqilah's house. I don't think I've said how pretty and spacious her house is, right? Yep, it is. Very, very cozy. She keeps rabbits on her backyard, and her grey rabbit keeps sniffing the other rabbit's butt, LOL. Anyway, back to Aqilah's house. The outside is mostly covered with grass - the kind of grass, like, carpet grass. The expensive one right? Yeah. She also has a pond and a fountain-like thingy. Ooh, and a frog lives in her pond! Anybody willing to transform it into a handsome prince? Or was it a toad, that the chick kissed?

No comment about the pizza. How can anyone not love pizza, right?! It finished real soon and so everybody ate Karyna's spaghetti. Yummy!

I guess the rest were tired of playing Guitar Hero, so, next, they played American Idol on Wii! It was around 3 plus that time, so Seri, Aqila, Siti Sarah, Karyna, Aqilah and I went upstairs in her room to pray. Pik Leng tagged along as well, so yeah. Aqilah's room is supercool, superspacious and filled with supernice stuff! Her bed is so high, Seri had problems getting on it, HAHAHA. So yeah, after praying, we stayed in her room for a bit, going through her stuff (with her permission, of course). We could hear Niraanjana singing Unfaithful downstairs, so us being busybodies and not wanting to get left behind with all the fun, went downstairs to where everybody else was.

We ended up being contestants in the show, ooh and Thivya sang My Heart Will Go On! Lol. The song selections were impressive as well, a lot of songs from the 21st century! :p I sang I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing by Aerosmith, obviously the class sang along! So yep, I made it to the semi-finals! Woot! Aqila made me sing Irreplacable. NO COMMENT ON THAT, HAHAHA the song included mostly screaming from all of us, but Alhamdulillah, I got 0% lousy :') I guess the Wii was on for too long, because suddenly the game stopped working. I hope it's alright now, sorry Aqilah!

I forgot what we did next, I think we went outside and ate some more. So much food was served on the tables, macaroni, spaghetti, doughnuts and such. Much to my delight! 0:-)

Mommy fetched me at 6, and off we went home. What a nice day I had, with classmates. Thanks Mommy, for letting me go. And thanks, 2H, for making my day! :)

• Friendly handball match at SMKTTDI

Ah yes. Okay, to cut it short (since I typed a lot already about the class party), U15 lost 9-8 and U18 lost 7-5. Hey, who's complaining? It was really fun, being my first match and all. Good exposure! :D Besides, it was just a friendly, right? And the SMKTTDI players were nice, I hope we were too towards them. It was tiring, and what's worse was I had to go to OU right after for class.

• Class, lunch and movie at One Utama

Mommy fetched me at around 11:30, and off we went to OU. Elynna was to meet up with her sister, so we gave her a ride as we were going there anyway. We changed quickly in the toilets, cleaning up as much as possible. I got a new teacher! Saufee, his name, if I'm not mistaken. Anyway, since I was literally starving, we decided to eat lunch somewhere. Hasya wasn't there to join us since she went to Disney On Ice -.- And Ayah was somewhere outstation, Beijing, I think. Hilman and Mommy wanted to eat at Yoshinoya, but since I wasn't really up for noodles, I asked if I could buy a burger and a drink from Burger King. Oh, and I bumped into Sofia, Sabrina and Hazwani too! They were with their friends ;)

Okay, back to food. Mommy said I could, and after I bought my mushroom burger (what's it called eh?) I saw Elynna eating with her sister. Elynna invited me to eat lunch with her, and so I did. Talked about some stuff and Elynna's sister showed me a picture of Elynna sleeping, HAHA. Oh, and she suddenly said this while we were eating,

"Elynna, this morning I went through my phone and I got a notice that said my phone memory was nearly full. So I went to the Gallery and found more than 50 pictures of you. Explain."

HAHAHA.

Alright, after the five of us (plus Hilman and Mommy) were done with lunch, Hilman, Mommy and I headed to GSC to catch a movie whilst Elynna and her sister went bowling. Movie of choice was none other than Hotel For Dogs. It's a cute and witty movie, highly recommended for "kids" like Hilman :p

• Swimming class at Sri Cempaka

Sent Hilman for class at Sri Cempaka, where we met up with Hasya, Qaisara and Harisa. While they were swimming, I was playing some race car game on Hilman's PSP. I lost every race. Whatever.

• Dinner at Wan Nyah's house

Ooh this was fun. The food cooked and served was scrumptious. Especially Aunty Zizi's hot pudding. I was finishing my Agama corrections most of the time, and thankfully, I'm done with that already. Wan Chu was talking about how she has a friend whose daughter studied at Sri Aman for a month or so and went off to a "better" boarding school in Perak. The girl complained to her mom that Sri Aman was filled with non-tudung wearing girls who cared nothing more than money. And we were boastful, not to mention hostile. Okay, big Ouch. Anyway, I sat at the same spot that night, when I ate and when I did my homework. So, cousins, aunties and uncles came and went thoughout the night. While I was doing my homework, the older cousins (who were done with their SPM) talked about their results. Funny.

"Siapa sini pass Add Maths?"

I went home at 11 plus, cause Ayah was too tired. Slept right after.

• Hamsters

All seven of them... Dead. I guess since it's Benji and Button's first time having babies, they don't quite know how to take care of them poor little pickle-looking baby hamsters. Sigh. Heathcliff, Daae, Raoul, you'd have to wait. Insya'Allah, next time, the hamsters to come would be safe and healthy in the blue cage downstairs :)

Oh, last night, when I came home, Benji's hand was stuck somewhere between the grill. I can't quite explain, but poor poor creature, when Mommy helped it set its arm free, Benji was limping and his body looked tired. I hope he didn't break his arm...

The stairs fell off too. So Button was stuck up there on the second floor the whole night. The both of them didn't eat or drink, while I had some yummy pudding... Guilt. Yikes.

School's starting soon! Excited, but lazy at the same time. It's feel-good Sunday today, also known as family daaaaay! Hoyeah :)

HAPPY 14th BIRTHDAY,
NURSYAZWANA IZZATI!
Have a great day today(!)
Turning a year older has its pros and cons,
And I hope for you,
You'd get the best of those pros :)

Is it just me, or do I not make any sense at all?
Sigh.
