"I am no Superman, I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that's for sure
But I do know one thing, is where you are,
is where I belong
I do know where you go, is where I want to be"

something to laugh at

and ogle to.




Hehe they are hilarious. Funny and hot. The best combination ever.



private

Sorry guys, but I've decided to make yadayadayada private. At first, it was because of certain people I wished to not read my blog but then it was because of an entirely different reason. Somehow, I felt my blog was too open, too transparent for people to read and know how I feel. People mentioned there, are strangers, people whom I don't know at all and I guess I'm scared what I write might be used against me or something. Yes yes I'm being paranoid, I mean sape je lah baca blog ni pun hahaha. Oh I crack myself up.

Don't get me wrong, I've tried numerous times to write something totally general, not personal at all but this is who I am I guess. I write how I feel, I write about the things I go through, good or bad, and I don't think I can stop being myself. If we'd be someone else when writing, then we can be considered as impostors. Betul tak kawan-kawan? Ceh, macam btul je.

So I've checked my blog list and I've invited you guys to have the privilege to view my blog already. Apa tunggu lagi? Pegi accept cepat!


Oodles and oodles of hugs and kisses,
Nashrah
xoxo



no longer dreaming

Bien que tout le bonheur j'ai connu les ces mois quelques derniers, j'aie vraiment une poingnée d'incertitudes dans moi. Le sentiment d'insécurité, espoir faux, doutes, les vues communes vers moi, la jalousie même, continue à me manger vivant, ce qui est quitté de ce corps mien frappé d'euphorie et de spirale en bas leur voie profondément en bas dans mon intestin.

Mais je sais assez bien qu'ils sont des démons que j'ai créés. Mon propre esprit joue des trucs sur moi. Je veux aller avec mon coeur et je crois qu'il parle bien. En semblant droit dans ces yeux et comment ils percent par moi, je sais que c'est un cadeau de Dieu et je lui permets de planifier ce qui est le meilleur pour moi. Je peux seulement prier pour que ce soit vrai.

Mais en sachant ce sentiment, matières premières et si de façon significative bel et pur, c'est clair ici et maintenant que c'est réel. Ce n'est pas un rêve. Toutes mes qualités de rêveur sont enlevées de moi.Il m'aime avec tout qu'il est et moi, aussi le sens le même. La connaissance que seul est plus qu'assez.

I have found my bliss.


Just wanted to write something in French. Makes the reading more intriguing :)


NK's tip of the day


#12 Since sometimes your weight fluctuates every now and then,
and you find yourself struggling to fit into your new jeans
or your love handles can be seen bulging on the outsides of your shirt,
I'd say indulge in shoes!


Since we have long surpassed our growth spurt (yes kita mesti sedar bhw kita dah besar ye kwn2), I doubt our feet are getting any bigger. So yeah even if our tummy bloates like crazy during that time of the month or the fries we've eaten went straight to our thighs, they never found their way to our lovely feet that's for sure. Trust me, this thought will make you feel better. :D



p.s: ini ditujukan untuk lelaki juga. saya tidak bias. hee

but long on time,
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
and I'm running late,

"I just want to tell you nothing
You don't want to hear
All I want is for you to say
Why don't you just take me
Where I've never been before
I know you want to hear me
Catch my breath
I love you till the end"

It'll keep you grounded.




NKTG

NKTG stands for Nasir Khan The Great. My father used to call himself that because his ultimate favourite football team is Manchester United and he said they are great, thus making himself great too.

Am I making any sense here? I do hope you get this.

Usually on Father's Day, me and my sisters would give him a card or we go out to eat, and no less than that. But this year, it turned out differently. With one of my sisters away in UIA and staying on campus for the weekend (usually we will pick her up on Fridays and send her back there on Sundays), it felt like celebrating Father's Day won't turn out to be as fun as it used to be. Plus, my mother mentioned this in her facebook. (okay she's not always online and my sister who usually moderates her profile, but surprisingly she updated her status yesterday. *cough* she has her own laptop now *cough*)


"happy father's day, happy mother's day, happy birthday..... watever happy day... need it be a day?, make it EVERY day, n b thankful we r still breathin, n need each other, no one is greater xcept Allah SWT, n insyallah life will be better n will b peaceful, amin."


And Ma, I couldn't agree more. My father also said he didn't want anything from us, because by right, every day should be Father's Day. So this morning, I wished him Happy Father's Day rather excitedly and I think I appeared a wee bit comical because he looked at me funny and laughed, and we hugged. That hug made me feel warm and a bit dizzy. Hugs are powerful that way don't you think? Especially between family members. But Pa, all I want to say is, and I do mean this with all my heart,


I love you and I thank you for every thing that you have done for us 5.
I will continue to make you happy and proud.
Happy Father's Day, Pa!


Hugs and Kisses,
From your 2nd daughter, Sya :)




p.s: looks like I'm writing this as if he can read je kan? haha.
Go celebrate your father today!

#10 For couples, instead of the usual dinner/lunch-and-movie date,
go bring your other half for a picnic and some kite-flying.
Very romantic and you'll learn a thing or two about each other.



p.s: My friend did this and I think it's really sweet.
They seemed to enjoy it too so it is romantically proven! :)




comfortable silences




Mia: Don't you hate that?

Vincent: Hate what?

Mia: Uncomfortable silences. Why do we feel it's necessary to yak about bullshit in order to be comfortable?

Vincent: I don't know. That's a good question.

Mia: That's when you know you've found somebody really special. When you can just shut the f**k up for a minute and comfortably share the silence.

#9 Bring your Ipod/mp3 player/boombox up onto the rooftop, listen to it and just lie down there. If you don't have one, you can bring out your inner diva and sing your heart out. A bottle of bubble solution is optional.



This is believed to make you happy and serene as proven by my sister. She's perky and bubbly all the time so I am certain that it works. Happy trying! :)



the best fight ever


Yes I am cheesy. A romantic as well. To the point of turning jiwang perhaps. But I just love this. So I want to share it with you guys too, hoping you will turn out to be just like me muahehehehehe.

I saved you yet once again. I wonder when will I get to be the damsel in distress this time? sigh.

puisi


Thank you Kak Ano for letting me copy and paste this poem from you. I think this is the first time I've posted a puisi in my blog. But it isn't mine though. It's Zahiril Adzim's, the guy who plays Ridzwan in Ghost. I love it. It's tremendously honest and sweet :)



Sayang betul dia kat aku.
Aku buat salah teruk, dia menangis satu malam.
Dan kemudian esok pagi, dia jumpa aku, dia tersenyum.
Kesalahan aku memang tak layak untuk terima senyuman tu.

Apakah memang ada manusia yang murni macam ni?

Dia nak marah, tapi dia nak ketawa.
Dia nak pukul, tapi dia nak ketawa lagi.
Dia nak tunjal kepala aku, tapi dia takut kepala aku sakit.
Dia nak lepaskan kemarahan dia, tapi dia takut aku terasa.
Dia nak merajuk, tapi dia nak berbual dengan aku.
Dia nak paling muka, tapi dia nak tengok muka aku.
Dia nak menangis, tapi dia tak nak bersedih masa tu.
Dia nak maafkan aku, sebab dia nak terus sayang aku.

Dia kata aku bodoh, aku kata, memang.
Dia kata aku tak fikir, aku kata tu lar pasal.
Dia kata aku tak guna otak, aku kata itu betul.
Dia kata aku bangang, aku kata paling bangang.
Dia kata aku jahat, aku kata takda niat.
Dia kata aku takut bila buat salah, aku kata takut gila.
Dia kata dah agak dah, aku kagum dengan firasat dia.

Dia dah tak tahu nak kata apa, aku kata, jangan kata apa, pukul je.
Dia dah tak nak pukul, aku kata maaf.

Dia tanya dah makan? Aku kata nak makan sama.
Dia kata jom.
Aku kata dalam hati..
"Tuhan, kalau betul dia jodoh, biar aku lawan untuk jodoh ini!"

girls just wanna have fun


Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah. :)

I have no other words to say other than that word up there. It's been a really long time waiting, and I've been wanting to savour this moment since a year ago. Thank you thank youuu Ma and Pa and friends and God. I am utterly grateful.

This calls for a celebration. Doesn't matter if our GPA decreased or increased. We need this. Karaoke and movie jom? Girls only :)


p.s: I have no idea why but Charlie's Angels popped into my head a few days ago. I am not sure whether it's because of my infatuation for dancing, or missing Aina and her specific request to pose like a Charlie's Angel during our last MTLS class, or Cameron Diaz's bubbly nature. So I couldn't resist putting this video up.

Mary and Aina, I want to be Drew ok? I dah chup.





Perhaps we could practice this dance pulak one day, since we have long abandoned our Napoleon Dynamite dance routine hehe. MC Hammer is cool yaw.



Congratulations everyone, looking forward for July! :)


I am so overwhelmed and not in a good way. Should've seen this coming.

Yes, this post is so overwhelming that I only wrote two sentences.

Okay then Goodnight.

Jeff Buckley biopic


"23-year-old hottie Robert Pattinson currently is considered to play the lead role on an upcoming biopic about the tragic life of singer/songwriter Jeff Buckley. Competing with him for the chance to portray the role is James Franco, who previously starred as Scott Smith on the 2008 movie "Milk".


There is still no further information about who is chosen to portray the role. On one hand, Pattinson has already proven that he has the singing chops. As for Franco, he "seems to be on a biopic roll", what with the award-winning film "Milk" and his upcoming role as beat poet Allen Ginsberg.


Jeff Buckley gained his popularity in the early 1990s by playing cover songs at venues in Manhattan's East Village. After recruiting his band, he signed with Columbia record label and produce his only studio album "Grace".


At the age of 30, he was found drowning during an evening swim in the Wolf River on May 29, 1997. He allegedly passed away due to drug overdose, but it was proven in an autopsy that he took no illegal drugs before swimming and the incident was considered as accidental drowning."

Source: here

Okay so maybe a lot of people aren't Jeff Buckley fans or the only song people have heard him sing is Hallelujah but I think the candidates to take his role in the movie might interest you. In my opinion, I'd say James Franco is most suitable for it and I swear, this is said with no bias whatsoever. I mean, I adore Rob, he's Edward Cullen for crying out loud, but there are really no questions about it. James is the man. Or let me consider the qualities they have. Shall we?

First off, let me show you how the late Jeff Buckley looks like.


handsome kan?

Round One: The Face

ok, let us see how close the two actors most resemble Jeff.
This is muy importante people.


Robert Pattinson


His hair and eye colour are lighter than Jeff's but he can always dye them and wear dark-coloured contact lenses. He does have high cheekbones and chiseled features. The brooding looks a bit forced though.

James Franco


The shape of his face is more similar to Jeff's than is Rob's. Has high cheekbones, chiseled features and dark eyes. His real hair colour is brunette/dark brown like Jeff's. The way he broods is more similar.

Winner: James Franco


Round Two: Their Resume

Robert Pattinson

Has played a wizard (was Cedric a wizard?), a vampire (a very enthralling one indeed), a poet.

James Franco

Has played a pilot, James Dean, a villain/superhero, drug dealer, a high school heartthrob, a weirdo, a gay, a junkie, a gigolo, a boxer, Tristan (as in Tristan and Isolde, the couple before Romeo and Juliet) and the list goes on.

Winner: James Franco

This might seem a bit unfair considering Rob's tender age (ceh tender la sgt) of 23 compared to 31 year-old James. But arguably, James has been creative in his choice of roles, thus making fans anticipating on what he'll do next.


Round Three: Other than acting..

Robert Pattinson can sing and play the guitar.
He has this rocker side to him.
Plus, Rob's "Never Think" gives me shivers.

James Franco does none of the above.
But, yes there is a but, he can learn and enrole in lessons and pick up the guitar quickly.
Who knows kan kan?
Okay okay I know, bias much?

Winner: Robert Pattinson


Round Four: Their Credibility (this may lead to unfairness)

Robert Pattinson

Yes he is the guy who girls love to love and the guys love to hate. He is considered what most teenage girls in the world would say "smokin hot" as the blood-sucking, human-loving vampire but certain people do wonder, is it all there is? Will he just remain to be one of the many pretty boys in Hollywood? I doubt that. Embodying a character from a book is not an easy job. Kudos to Rob for making Edward Cullen seem real. And lovable. He is still young and has a long way to go. I see great things happening to him in the future. (nape lah poyo sgt ni.)

James Franco

Oh James. James James James.
There are a lot to say about him, yet it's hard to find the right words. Sigh.
He's just perfect you know?

See what I mean by unfairness?
I'm sorry, I can't help myself teehee.

To be honest, I bet everyone knows James Franco is a bonafide actor. It just depends on whether you like him or not. But there is no doubt when it comes to his charming, rugged good looks, his undeniable talent and down-to-earth nature. Plus, he's much more experienced than Rob. But I'm not downing Rob. He has his tricks up his sleeve too.

All in all, I think we all know who the winner is.

*drum roll*



It's James Franco everybody.


*clap clap clap*

Rob's fans, don't go on hating me now.
You're allowed to tell me your thoughts!


What do you think?

hari ini hari tahpape


I knew it. I just knew it. Yesterday I couldn't stop laughing. I was happy. Tremendously happy for many reasons. One of it was my mother's birthday yesterday. So yeah, I had a smile plastered on my face all throughout the day and giggles escaping now and then. But I remember what our fathers and mothers (orang-orang tua) always say, "Banyak gelak sangat nanti nangis." "Kalau happy sangat nanti akan nangis." Boy, were they ever wrong?

What I'm trying to say is, Safwan, hari ini hari sial for me too. And it's all because of one shitty person. Yup, so full of shit, it pisses me off. And yes, manage to make me tear up as well. Memang cannot-go type of person lah. But what to do, dah dia wujud kat dunia ni. And yes, patience is part of our iman, so I'm planning to have it still intact, thank you very much.

Moral of this post is, JANGAN BANYAK GELAK NANTI NANGIS.


p.s: I'm sorry for any not so intelligent words appearing here. When you're mad, nothing seems alright anymore. Tgh istighfar banyak-banyak la ni.

#8 Sometimes, the best thing to do is to just shut up.
And listen.
That mouth of yours can bring disastrous results;
if you're not thinking straight.



S & S, M & R together forever

You might think I'm crazy or obsessed or too mushy or just being annoyingly nostalgic, but I can't help myself. Ever since the semester break started and having no job whatsoever, most of my time would be spent on eating, watching tv and cute o.c moments on youtube. Gah, I feel pathetic.

But you O.C lovers out there, I know you know how I feel. These are two most memorable moments for me between Seth and Summer (my favourite couple ever in the history of television shows) and Ryan and Marissa during the four seasons it has lasted that I'd like to share with you guys. And I bet O.C fans will agree with me on this.

They are just too darn sweet. You can close your eyes if you get uncomfortable during the kissing scenes.

Oh and the music rocks too. "Dice" by Finley Quaye and Coldplay's "Fix You" were played in the background. :)








"I love you."

"Thank you."

#7 Past problems, regrets, heartaches;
I took a deep breath and let it go.

You should do the same too.




my heart is frozen still


I'd seen this video twice, once on MTV and Channel V if I'm not mistaken. Made me ecstatic beyond words. Jeff's videos appearing on tv? A rare occasion. Now I hardly even watch astro. Anyhoo, this is Jeff Buckley's music video "Forget Her". I was 15 when I heard this, the first ever song that made me fall in love with his music. Sad, lovely, haunting, Brilliant.
