20 years of Awesome-ness





Listening to "If I Ever Leave This World Alive" by Flogging Molly

Celebrated my 20th birthday on the 18th. Thank you Lea, Ika, Fat and the rest for the cake.

My family also got me a cake. I spend the whole day indulging myself into Walter Benjamin's mind. Not the greatest thing to do on your birthday.

Moving on. From now on, I will occasionally make a playlist of songs that I would like to share with you.

Tell me what you think of the playlist and any recommendations on new song or band are much welcome.




P/S: It's hard for me to like older guys. But Fred Egan struck my fancy. Haha!

Human & Still Life













Listening to "I Was Made For You" by She & Him

Final subject count for this trimester, two.

Which left me with plenty of time to do such things as above.

And since I was recently blown away by the level of creativity & awesomeness of Mammoth Men, I created this series called "Human & Still Life".

Enjoy the photos.



P/S: MARA is my sugardaddy. And I'm going home tomorrow. Yeay.

Sainthood Album Cover



Listening to "Sort Of" by Ingrid Michaelson

This photoshoot happened spontaneously without any proper planning.

Lea showed me her stripes shirt and she said we should do Sainthood album cover.

The post-production took about 2 hours. Composition was the hardest.

Enjoy the photo. Btw, no stealing!



P/S: Sorry, still no photo update on Graduation Day. Thank you Along for the tools.

Listening to "Pop The Glock" by Uffie

Anyway, enjoy the photos.

Models: Zakirah & May Thing.
Assistants : Along & Ekha.

Btw, result came out today, I did pretty well. Syukur Alhamdullillah.

Sainthood Review


Listening to "Wake Up" by Sliimy

Guess what? I had my hand on Sainthood. Technically my ears, since they were the one been doing the listening for the past two days. The album release is on Oct 27th, but I had my way to listen to whole album first. All 13 full-length tracks. Think what you like because in Malaysia, it is impossible to actually buy their album.

So for those who couldn’t care less about Tegan & Sara, you can stop reading now, because I tend to go all the way when it comes to my two favorite girls.

Back to the review. There are 13 tracks listed for the album Sainthood. "Hell" being the first single released, had me scrambling to their site to listen to what Sainthood is going to be like.

From the 13 tracks, Tegan & Sara each have 6 of their songs included. "Paperback Head" is the only track that the girls work on together.

As always, Tegan's songs are catchy and Sara's, well you need to listen a couple of time before you really get the beat. But once you're humming the tune, you'll be hooked to her songs.

My favorite Tegan's songs from the album Sainthood are "The Ocean" and "Someday". And Sara's, "Sentimental Tune" and "Arrow". I think by far this album has some of the best collection of Sara's songs compare to all the previous albums.

Tegan & Sara have definitely evolve with their music through all these years. Of course the fans would prefer their early work, as that what got them listening to the girls in the first place. This album is nothing like Tegan & Sara first demo. Don't get your hope down. Give it a listen. You'll love it.

Update: The video was supposed to be "Hell" Official Music Video. Apparently, they're no longer available due to copyright. Sheesh...

P/S: Favorite album, The Con.

Pullman








Listening to "The Ocean" by Tegan and Sara

My whole family stayed at Pullman for the graduation event.

And this was me having my breakfast.

It's all you can eat buffet.

Trust me, I was eating more than I can actually eat. Haha.



P/S: I'm a food machine. Please let me eat.

Graduation Day II

















Listening to “Broken Heart” by Motion City Soundtrack

“I’ll destroy this useless heart
I’ll fuck it up so it’ll never beat again
Not just for me but for anyone”

Finished my first semester in MMU. Hoping for better days to come soon.

Finally done with these graduation photos.

Here are some photos taken with Aiman right after the graduation event.

Sadly, not many can join us that day.

My sister jumped in to be our photographer for the day. Thank you.

Me and Aiman was joking around saying that our photoshoot worth more than those photobooth they had for students to have their photos taken.

You know, the stand-still-shoulder-straight-fake-smile kinda pose.

I mean come on. Those types of photos are way too stiff and rigid for a fun day.

So we mock the pose and then filled the rest of the day with our own idea of fun day of graduation.

Enjoy the photos. I’ll update more photos soon.

Update: Maaf jika gambar anda tidak terpapar dalam blog post ini. Malang sekali semua gambar bersama lecturer dan kawan-kawan terdekat terkandung dalam kamera Aiman. I was so stupid for not bringing along my camera with me.

P/S: Yes, I slipped on stage while accepting my award. Sheesh!

Graduation Day I


















Listening to "Gimme Sympathy" by Metric

A makeover!! It has been the same banner for over a year now. Better image display for better viewing.

Post kali ini agak sarat dengan gambar yang diambil pada hari pendaftaran konvo di PICC.

Senang kata saat-saat akhir berkumpul sebelum semua membawa haluan masing-masing.

Those 2 days was somehow emotional to me.

Seeing faces that may or may not be in your life when future comes, name of people that might slip away as the years pass by.

My college life was by far the best years I had.

Enjoy the photos. Next post is my private photoshoot with Aiman for our Graduation day.



P/S: Salam takziah kepada Barok. Al-Fatihah.

Aidilfitri 1430H


















Listening to "Until You" by Dave Barnes

Update: Listening to "Hell" by Tegan & Sara

Selamat Hari Raya. Still not too late I guess.

The photos were taken during the course of preparation and Hari Raya itself.

I didn't bake anything but I did help finish up any leftover. Sufi ended up with some sort of skin rashes but he's fine now.

There are actually more photos but I'm just too lazy to do the editing.

Hope these few will do.

I have my last paper tomorrow, then 2 weeks of holiday.



P/S: Stuff I've been watching during my 2 days of self-confinement. What I Like About You, Big Bang Theory, Royal Pains and my all time favorite, How I Met Your Mother.

Dreamy Field








Listening "Graduation Day" by Math and Physic Club

Notice the song? Yeah! Totally in the mood for graduation day. Can't wait to meet up and catch up.

If you read the post before, I mentioned about holding up any post for the moment, but I had some time, so I thought I'd squeeze in some thing.

I was gonna talk about my failure with my weight issue and stuff but why ruin such a good photo post.

The photos were taken during my holiday in the prairie field. Hah! As if...

Kidding. Getting more attach to the portrait lens. Love the bokeh.



P/S: More photos on up coming post..

Morning Ray





Listening to "Caroline" by Sugarplum Fairy

"When you cry , I cry, sad eyed Caroline..
With your tears came tears of mine.."


Took these photos on Sunday morning around 6-7 a.m. Lea and I haven't been resting well for almost a week. But everything is almost done, I'm left with one tiny assignment to do before the sheer joy come creeping in.

Today, by midnight, my family is coming to take me home. Yeay for that. Raya is coming really sooner than I thought. And come to think of it, today Lea and I had our last sahur together before the holiday starts.

Selamat Hari Raya.


P/S: The presentation was okay. I wish I did better. Strive for the best.

Sugarplum Fairy





Listening to every single song of Sugarplum Fairy.

Right at this moment, I'm supposed to be cracking my head trying to finish up my final project. But I'm taking some time off to update you on my latest music craving.

Sugarplum Fairy. The name itself makes me smile.

The first time I listen to this band was back in 2006. Back then, I was more into emo, so I couldn't care less about them. However,yesterday, I magically stumbled upon them again on an online radio and BAM!!

I am in love! Their songs are just great. They do look like some teeny British pop band, but they are actually one awesome-rockin'-Swedish-band ever!

And Victor Noren being absolutely gorgeous is a bonus. *Drool*

I've been listening to all their albums non-stop. Theeee....



P/S: 2 days to go....

Lea vs Ville



Listening to "Dancing in the Dark" by Tegan and Sara

Sorry for the lack of update. Super busy with projects and assignments which mostly due this week and next week.

So puting my work first before any pleasure, I would have to put the major news on hold first.

Meanwhile, please feast your eyes on Lea's look-a-like attempt of her sweetheart, Ville Valo. Haha. Gerenti hang bengang aku upload gambar ni.


P/S: Back to assignments.
