Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir Batin. Greetings! I know, it has been awhile. I've been here everyday, here - in front of the PC but never get a chance to write a post. It's not that I'm busy with more important works but I didn't know what to write! So, I'm just going to write the general things so people won't think I'm bored already with blogging. The house, it's perfect! Well, there are some stuff that needed to move away. Therefore, we're moving it to our condo in Kota Damansara. The wall painting, inside and out - DONE! Furnitures - ENOUGH! Or else it'll look crowded. The huge 7 feet by 5 feet arrived yesterday. Now, the house looks HUGE! I just can't wait for the Raya Open House next Saturday, November 3rd.

OU

2007-10-06T20:33:00.000+08:00

SO OK. I didn't write anything yesterday.

I woke up at 12 p.m today. It feels so good ツ I straight away took my bath and asked Mama to iron my shirt and pants.

I was at OU from 2 p.m to almost 6 p.m. I hung out with Iylia, Farha and Wawa. Damn, there were lots of people. I got really "dizzy" (not literally. eheh)

The house is painted with new colors, mostly.

Xoxox

10 days before Eid

2007-10-04T21:58:00.000+08:00

This morning, Mahirah and I woke up because we had to. We helped Mama and Mak Cik Liz to clean up the living room. We put the furnitures in the other room.

By 11 I was at Dr Sarah. To put my anchor back again. Bought the little toothbrush for RM5. Ayah saw this dining table for RM7k at Mobella Mobilli. He then changed his mind about buying it.

Basically nothing much happened today. Mama and Ayah bought paints. Ah Soh and his crew will be coming over tomorrow to plain the outside of the house.

Damn, I'm sleepy. G' night.

It's 80% done

2007-10-04T05:42:00.000+08:00

In a few days, it'll completely be painted; the outdoor only. Indoor, it'll be DIY.

2nd project coming soon; new 2 inches tiles in the living& TV room, plaster ceiling, stairs and plumbing.

A3 paper

2007-10-03T19:52:00.000+08:00

Yeah, I didn't post a thing yesterday. I was pretty busy. I drew the whole day. My hand felt numb of holding pencils and coloring the pictures. By 11+ p.m I finally close my eyes to sleep. My bag were packed with documents, transcripts and my pencil box. I couldn't put the A3 papers inside as they're too big for my bag. So I decided to just hold them in my hands the next day.

This morning, woke up for Sahur. Went back to bed at 5.30 a.m, an hour later. I know, I know. The foods might not yet digested but I really needed the sleep. Woke up again at 6.45 a.m. Perform the Subuh prayer and took my bath. Took off for Shah Alam only at 7.50 a.m. At LDP, there were lots of cars. No traffic jams but lots and lots of cars. They're all off to work, I guess. Same goes to the PLUS highway except that there was an accident involving two cars. I only noticed that one of them was a Kelisa.

Arrived at the faculty at 8.20 a.m and I just noticed that I accidentally left my A3 papers! Oh my freaking god. I was absolutely gelabah. I chilled down and went straight to the registration. I was thinking, "how am I supposed to get A3 papers to draw now?" Then Ayah came after he parked the car. He went and look at these three boards, and there were some lists of papers, consists of names. He came and told me that my name wasn't there. But we managed to get over that little complication. I'm still worried about the A3 papers and I didn't tell Ayah yet. I'll be doomed if I tell.

Got to the lecture hall and it was almost full, full of people. And there was this I-don't-know-what's-it-called. There was a computer chair, fabrics covering it, a plastic chair, a stool, some sticks and etc. I don't remember. Plus it's too complicated to describe and we were asked to draw it. I asked my neighbor for an A3 paper, who's a boy and he gave me a piece. I managed to complete 3/4 of the picture, with the shadows and lines, etc. It was within 45 minutes. Then in our form, there were some pictures of lines that we were asked to combine them to make a story. It's a 15 minutes test.

We went up another level of the faculty and we waited for out turns to be interviewed. There was already the first batch waiting to get done with their interviews. I was waiting and waiting and waiting, until it was almost a two hours waiting and the third batch came and I still didn't get in. I was like the second last of all who were asked to be interviewed. It went well. They asked about my qualifications, my works, other documents and life in America (pffftt.)

I was done by 12.30 p.m. It sure was damn tiring. Went down to the lobby and tried to call Ayah. There wasn't a line available. Tried to call Mama. Same thing. Then I remembered, I have no credits. Bull! I went in and saw Ayah talking to someone at the back end of the hall. Went up to him and he introduced me to his friends who turned out to be a photography lecturer. He already had my name and the course I wish to take.

Arrived home at 1.10 p.m. Perform Zuhur and went to Dr. Sarah at 2 p.m to put my anchor back again. Grrr. Unfortunately Dr sarah only will come in at 3 p.m so her nurse would put it for me. After the fifth tries, she gave up and asked to come back again tomorrow at 11 a.m to see Dr Sarah herself.

Berbuka; ate Nasi Lemak with fried chicken.

Xoxo.

October is here

2007-10-01T18:23:00.000+08:00

Happy first October, readers. How are you all this evening? It's quite chilly today with the rain pouring almost the whole day. You can just sit in front of the TV without turning on the fan which you can't really do it everyday. Forty minutes before break fasting and I still feel tired and sleepy after an almost two hours nap. Anyway, last night was fun.

Ayah Long's Iftar ceremony for his MCKK schoolmates (MCOBA Selangor Timur) was held at his house, of course. There were like a hundred guests. Three tents were built up and there were a lot of foods. The catering was tak lain tak bukan, Ayah's student, Haji Morshidi's Warisan Baiduri.

The contractors couldn't do any work today as the rain was pouring therefore they tend to do it tomorrow. Hopefully by the end of the week, everything will be done.

Ayah will break his fast at the campus. Adik and I will be eating Zinger burger while Mama will eat Snack plate from KFC.

Twelve days before Raya. I'm cited!

Iftar

2007-09-30T17:08:00.000+08:00

We cleaned up the house a bit. Wipe all dust on the chairs, tables, floor, etc. I washed two rugs. Adik did the laundry while Ayah just sitting around. Grrr.. We finished at about 2.30 p.m, both Ayah and Mama took a nap. Adik was on the internet while I was practicing my drawing. Now, all of us except Ayah are dressed up for Ayah Long's iftar. He invited almost 80 guests, his schoolmates from MCOBA.

Happy Sunday

2007-09-30T14:06:00.000+08:00

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, I didn't write a post yesterday and I didn't know why. Maybe I just didn't have the time to. Nothing much happened the other day. Well, not really. At 11 a.m off to One Utama to buy and survey some things - awning, flower pots, padlocks, RAYA SHOES and two loaves of RM18 Kyoto, Japan's bread. We got to be home early as the contractors were home alone but they went home early too, at 4.30 p.m since they are pretty much done with most of the things. On Monday, the grills might be up and the tiles at the front lawn will be cemented. Uncle Kadir's son, Ariq, came to pick up two boxes belongs to Uncle Kadir and Aunt Min when they were in Athens. At 6 we went to the bazaar. Ayah broke his fast at the university and Mama, Adik and I ate Laksa Penang with Coconut drink.

SMKTTDI's Prom Nite

2007-09-30T05:58:00.001+08:00

P/s- I'm not going.

Muhibbah tonight?

2007-09-28T17:30:00.001+08:00

First Raya card received today, from Shafiq. He also sent it to Adik. Yeah, whatever.

All windows arrived today and it looks gorgeous at where it supposed to be. The house already look grand, without the tiles at the front lawn and the new border on the kitchen door.

Mama just called. She and Ayah are on the way back home from the bazaar. We're out to Muhibbah tonight, for fast breaking. Adik might on her way back now too, from school.

Gosh, I'm so bored! I think it was even before Zuhur, I was already sitting here, on this computer chair and infront of the PC. It's all because I have to practice my drawing lah! It's 5.35 p.m and I'm soooooo tired. I can't even go downstairs. I can't watch TV =(

Gtg now. Chiow.

Right is Left, Left is Right

We went for berbuka at Ismail last night to get some Nasi Beriyani Ayam. Dang! It was d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s. There are bunch of people. There were I think a table or two of employees from Vads Tower. Others were just random people. We got there at 7.05 p.m. Yep, it was pretty late and it's because Ah Soh and his crew aren't back to their home(s) yet, still plastering walls, here and there. They work hard! Ayah said to them that we won't be long. Yeah, we won't be long, we didn't even manage to get a parking! Anyway, Ayah dropped up while he go find a parking. And the azan was berkumandang and Ayah's not here yet. Then he came and we continue eating until 7.35 a.m We're done early today. As we arrived home, Ah Soh and crew were still there, cleaning up. I guess they feel responsible. They doesn't want to crushed our trust towards them and maybe they feel if they left home and there were to be an intruder or two who vandalize our place, it's either them to get the blame or their work has been useless. Well, that's a good thing that they wait for us to be home. For Sahur, we ate Roti Canai and chicken curry. Yummy!

p/s- they're drilling on the wall between TV room and kitchen and maybe finishing up the tiles at front lawn.

10 days

Safety precautions; They leaned over the old grill to close up tempat yang terdedah.

No more sliding doors baby! :) It's now has been replaced with two main doors, unvarnished and at sides, there'll be small windows. View this entry to look up what changes have they made on the first day.

When there were two sliding windows that my family compared it to the window at the clinic where patient get their medicine, now will turn to a an improve classy window, LOL.

Changed of plans?

2007-09-27T14:42:00.000+08:00

Last night, Mama and Ayah slept in my room while I moved to Adik's. Mama and Ayah's room is too dusty to sleep in. Moreover, the room is too 'open' since the walls has been collapsed and the new window hasn't been installed yet.

I fell asleep at 12.40 a.m, I think. I was waiting for Shafiq, my friend who I know from 4th grade, to reply my text. I asked him whether he'll go to school the next day. He replied at 1 a.m. and I was already asleep but the vibration made by my phone which was under my pillow, woke me up. He apologized for the late reply since he just read my text. He said he'll go to school the next day and asked why did I asked him. Well, since he'll study graphic designing too, I thought that he could help me with the interview, maybe some books and if he's not going to school, maybe both of us could meet up and I could borrow his books. (Like I said in my earlier post, yes, I have my own graphic books but I need to freshen up my design with new ideas). Unfortunately, he said that he'll be needing his graphic books to study for SPM. Well, I said it's fine then.

All of us woke up at 4.30 for Sahur. I ate vege soup and fried vege with rice, ONLY. There are other foods served on the table such as fried fish and some kuih but I do not fancy fried fish, FYI (Well, I don't like fish, anyway) and I'll eat the kuih after I'm done eating my rice. I went back to bed at 6.20 a.m and woke up at 9.45 a.m after receiving Mama's call from Ayah's phone from my room. (LOL, as if our house is as big as a castle, to call from one room to the other).

I took shower and Mama said that Ayah will be going with me and my sister to Jasima Enterprise to buy some stationeries that I'll be needing for the interview. I also bought the Seventeen mag and some Raya cards.

It's 3.03 p.m and I just recovered from feeling hungry. Well I did not eat (of course) but I distract myself by copying, pasting and printing some infos that I might have to know about graphic designing such as practicum, typography, types of animation, elements of graphic design and not to forget, the art and design movements from 1860 to the present days. Plus, I printed out David Carson, an American graphic designer, biography.

Interview letter

2007-09-26T23:38:00.001+08:00

Wow. I never thought I would write three posts today. Well, before I said good night, sleep tight and sweet dreams, I'm thrilled to received UiTM's interview letter this evening. I didn't know how to react. I was happy yet I was afraid. The interview will be at the Fakulti Seni Lukis & Seni Bina, UiTM Shah Alam next week. They want me to bring my ID, birth certificate, studies transcripts, interview letter and (if any) art works, besides the stationeries which are pencils, pens, an eraser and A3 papers.

Bunch to do tomorrow!! Before companying Adik while waiting for Pak Cik Ali, I have to go to either (or both) Jasima Enterprise and/or Star Enterprise to buy what I need for the interview - the stationeries. Need to look up for some magazines on graphics. I already have a couple of graphic books but I'm bored with their designs. So, do you have anything in mind?

It's 11.46 p.m and Mama was just checking out on me. Therefore, I got to go. Good night.

I can't get enough can I?

2007-09-26T11:21:00.000+08:00

This happened on the first day.

Aha! I just woke up. Well, I just got my shower. It's 11.22 a.m and the contractors are knocking on my walls. The walls between the TV room and the dining room. The whole projects are almost over, for now. Yesterday they did the main door and the front lawn. Last week they finished up the walls between Aunt Astrid and our home and started the balcony in my parents room. The entire house is dusty! Everything is! Well, it'll end soon. By Raya we'll have a new lawn, new garden, may I say, new main door and some new windows, (no more sliding doors, Addah!), a whole new TV room and kitchen and a private backyard. This Ramadan will be the starting point to a new home. Our condo, de Rozelle is almost done too, NOT. Well, we don't know yet when will we move our sofa, beds, closets, kitchen, lamps, and other kinds of stuff from Taman Tun to Kota Damansara. But it doesn't really matter as I put my renovating house the number one priority. Raya Open House will be a blast!

Pssst..

Though it’s too early to tell, today will be the same as the days I’ve gone through for the last three months.

Boredom… Boredom… Boredom…

Hello, I’m Addah.
I’m seventeen, not seating for SPM and unwaged.

HAPPY RAMADHAN, EVERYONE.
