I used to dream about you...


When we were young, we dreamed a lot. We dreamed for the impossibles, but those dreams are shattered or worn out with age.

As we grew up, we forget about our dreams…instead, we listen to the reality and live out life accordingly…. On that note, we proclaim our maturity.

When I was still riding my tricycle, I dreamed for the day I could ride a bike. When I got my driving licensed and started driving a car, I dreamed about flying a plane… but my second thought said that it’s ridiculous and would never happen. Then on, that dream never revisits.

When I was a kid, I never bothered about friendship, but I had a lot of friends. We fought and argued, but as a new day started… we were once again, friends.

Every individual is unique, or some might say ‘weird’… but I suppose, a different kind of personality attracts a different kind of people… nevertheless, never commit evils. Especially… for us, Muslims… we are the guided people!

“Be yourself”
That notion is a bit speculative as some might say that… if one is evil, he should not be himself. In a way, I could not agree more as human soul is prone to evils… But I suppose, it depends on how you define it too. I would personally not look at it from good and evil definition. It is more in personal characteristic, that many of us were born or grown up with. Like, sense of humor…

So the point that I’m getting at is…
When a humorous person tells a joke, very often, it is funny, but whenever a non-humorous person tries to be humorous… many times… He seems silly!

When I was a kid, I befriended with just anyone. But only some friends were really closed.
And… it never changes…

I don’t select people to be my friends… because I do not know how.

I have poor social skill but I enjoy talking to strangers because strangers often listen but then forget.

I’m amazed with a person who has a very unique skill in entering once life. He/she comes in such a unique way, possesses such a charming personality, speaks words of wisdom, thrives the other person broken dreams, a little bit arrogant in a way yet very charismatic… but this kind of person never stays… in fact, he/she is never real.

Did you realize that, the lower the lowest, the higher the highest?

Transition

Sometimes I wonder if I would still blog after I go back for good since it always turns out that I don’t really blog whenever I return to Malaysia. I’m back in Melbourne again. Despite everything I said about this place. I'm always thankful that I’m studying here. 8 hours is long enough, can’t imagine going further. Let alone going back during a short winter break like I just did. Haha… However, regardless how good Melbourne is, coming back here is never easy. It is not the place, it’s the transition. Travelling is tiring. Yes, like yesterday, I had to take two flights, one from Penang to KL, then KL to Melb, it is a lot more tiring for someone like me who could barely sleep in a plane. That’s why I enjoy traveling during the day and taking a window seat. I enjoy day dreaming while staring at those fluffy white clouds. Haha.. Weather change changes everything. I had never went back during winter before. So that was my first time experiencing an abrupt change from a...

Willful Ignorance

I was too busy with architecture for the last few weeks.. . haven’t really got a chance to get my head around what’s going on in the world, especially back home in Malaysia. I felt detached from reality. I felt like I was living in ignorance. I felt guilty. Therefore, since I finished my final presentation yesterday (still got 2 submissions coming though)… Today, I decided to take a day off from architecture. I went out for a good lunch with a friend, had some retail therapy… and came back, get on the internet and try to update myself with some of the current issues. I read. I read. I read and I read. As a result. I feel sick. And I still feel guilty, way worse… I feel guilty and hopeless for knowing things I could never really do anything about. I know... I know...I know I’m a little behind. But I still need to put more efforts in understanding the following issues, I’m feeling lost and mentally constipated just by reading one or two news/articles/blogposts about them. 1. ...

Kerja Tak Siap Lagi!

I guess one of the real problem with Malaysian Architecture is it lacks of publication even on the internet. I have been browsing for Malaysian architecture these few days and surprisingly I found that there are many amazingly great projects back home. I stumbled upon many photos of interesting designs that I wish I could dig further for my assignment. But it is frustrating that how brief most of the information is. I also wonder if having a website is such a big deal (expensive, is it?) since not many firms have a website, let alone a good one. Some websites I have to say are not inviting at all. Many use dark/navy blue as the primary color, why is it? I don’t hate blue, but it’s not tasty at all as an architecture website… I also found some real good architects who keep blogs, but the problem with a blog is, it depends on the updates. Therefore, even if it is a current project (since some projects run for years), but if the post was 7 months ago, the blog seems abandoned. Besides, it...
