Another mistake?

Just talked to a friend whom I think I can trust.
A lot of people know I don't easily make friends and simply trust people for nothing.
I can tell from the way one talks, they way one respects me and others and the way one acts.
I believe you are one good person.
But is it another mistake for trusting another friend who might not be that trustworthy like how I think? 
Hope that it's not gonna be another mistake because I trust you friend.
I don't think you are like those I have met before and I believe you are one good friend.
I won't tell you my story if you are not.
Again, I believe you are one good person.
I know I trust you.
Keep it to yourself.
Thanks buddy :)

Why is 2010 special? KENAPA?

In my earlier post on December 31st, a day before 2010 crawled in, I did write about how special 2010 is.
It is definitely the year I have been waiting for.
Since I was small, I have been waiting for this year to come and now it is September, closely coming to the end of it.
But, I haven't really told anyone except my family why it is so special to me.
Nothing fantastic though.
It is just me who thinks that it is special.
It is prolly corny and cheesy, but heck. It is SPECIAL.

Basically, I am not really a birthday person.
I don't really celebrate my birthday, what more my friends'.
I don't really feel the need to celebrate my birthday with friends because I just don't feel like it.
But no offence. Birthdays are a great celebration though. I like it when people celebrate others' birthdays.
But I don't really like the idea of how these boys prank any birthday boy with lots of things which I find ridiculous and childish sometimes. Things they do to the person celebrating their birthdays are dangerous at times and it can cause injury and I totally disagree with such things. That's why I never join such activity, I will never do such things to people and in return, I expect the same respect from others too. I just think that it's a horrible thing to do to someone who is supposed to celebrate a great day of his life.
Again, it's probably fun but it's not really my thing. 
That's why I decided to hide my birthday on Facebook from everybody except my family, in a hope that no one is reminded of my birthday.
If you ask me why, I have no reason in particular.
I just don't want people to really know my birthday, what more to celebrate it.
But this year's birthday is definitely a special one to me.
It's going to be special.
Why?
Because my birthday is on the 20th of October. And it is the year of 2010.
In short, 20-10-2010
Isn't that beautiful?

So, I've been thinking that I want to celebrate my birthday this year. How? Where? With who?
I haven't thought of that. All I know is, I want to celebrate it this year. Expecting some great gifts from friends too. LOL. Just joking. Like they would ever know and remember cos I am definitely not telling.
So, definitely gotta start thinking of some special thing to do that day. Being with the loved ones would be a great idea too.
What else?

Two week Raya break, the last one that is...

I am here at Larkin bus terminal, waiting for my 9.30pm bus.
It's not fun at all waiting all alone by yourself while some of your friends are already back at their hometown, happily having Iftar with their entire families.
And I am here alone, waiting for the bus.
Not forgetting the 7-8 excruciating hours of  journey to my place, that's going to be very boring.

However, I am looking forward to this journey because it has been a while since I last took a bus for a long journey like this,
It was in 2005 when I first experienced a long journey on buses.
It was when I started my studies at then-known as MPTI, IPTI and now IPGKTM.
And here it is, it's the end of 2010, where the journey is coming to an end.
I sometimes find it hard to really believe that the 6 long years of studies which I used to see as something very painful to go through is coming to an end.
In another  7 months or so, I will no longer be known as a student or teacher trainee.
And this whole schooling thing will be over for me. (I haven't really thought of pursuing Masters or anything of that sort)
I am definitely going to badly miss the things I could do as a student. It's going to a completely different life altogether.

Last night, I had a great conversation with some friends who I started this whole journey with together.
Looking back to what we did before, how it all began, the orientation week we went through together, how everyone now looks completely different (some have grown fat, some have grown thinner than ever, some stay the same like how we first met them) and all sort of things we did and experiences we had for the last 5 years.
It's unbelievable that whenever I think of it, I am kind of sad because I will never get to go through the same thing again.
I have known some great people,some awful utterly bad people, those old friends whom I only get to start knowing them closer now.
it's hard to imagine that after going through this whole thing togetehr, we are going to be parted soon.
How sad, right?
I guess, that's life.
All I need to know is there some people and friends whom you can treasure fo life.
And I now do beelieve that there are people who you can call great true frineds.
They exist, so I am gonna keep their friendship close to my heart.
I don't wanna sound so cliche and corny, but yes, no matter how far the distance is, true friends are forever.
I am grateful and thankful to have known you people.
I am definitely going to miss you guys!

Gotta go now.
It's almost time and I definitely wouldn't want to miss my bus.
So excited to go back home to be with my Mak, abah, and my entire ridiculously loving family!
Till then, it's Memer signing off... 
Muahhhhhhhh!

Prepaid vs Postpaid

Last year in July, I decided to try on using postpaid line because some of friends realized that I spent so much money on my prepaid,so they thought that it would be best if I switched to postpid.
So I did.
For over a year, I had been using postpaid line.
Until recently I realized that with postpaid I spent so much more than prepaid.
Maybe it's just me but I realize that using postpaid had caused me to overuse the line.

Being a student, it is very definitely not recommended for me to use so much of money on something like that because I should spend them on something more important like food, books and other necessity.
With me using Blackberry and subscribing to Blackberry Internet Service(BIS) by Maxis, I had to pay quite sum of money every month to pay for the charges.
And it just made me realize recently when I had to pay RM 190 for my phone bill, which I found very disturbing and irrelevant in that sense.
I realized that as a student, I am not supposed to be spending so much on my phone bill.
Maybe this only applies to me because I seem to be very careless about my money.

So, the realization I got from that got me into thinking that I should switch back to prepaid line.
And so I did.
I guess it would be best if I just stick to prepaid because I think it's for my good too.
I should always remind myself that I am still a student who still do not have a job and salary to pay for things which do not seem to be important at this moment.
So I guess switching back to prepaid is the best thing for me to do.
There are a lot more things coming my way soon, like my practical teaching and stuffs, which will definitely require a lot of money.
I guess I am just lucky enough to still have supportive family who still give me money when I myself think that I do not deserve it from them.
Maybe,I just need to start to realize that money don't come easily and and they don't grow on trees and start to realize every cent I have.

So what say you?

Are you a loyal user of postpaid or prepaid line?

Audrey and Gamaliel

Have you guys seen these kids on YouTube?
Aren't they just so good?
I found this video while I was blog-hopping and I decided to watch all the videos they posted on YouTube.
These kids are from Indonesia and let me tell you, their singing is just effortless and mind-blowing.
Of course my favorite would be their own rendition of Lady Gaga's Pokerface.
Check out these three favorite videos of mine from them.
Enjoy!!!
