What is this fadhilah?

Just got back from Faddy's birthday dinner. Happy 20th my longest best friend! (: Hope you like the dinner, our gifts and lastly the cupcakes of which some are squashed which I believe is kinda my fault in an attempt not to be seen by her and the 'escourt' while holding the box of cupcakes. So as Eva and I went down the escalators towards the dhoby ghaut platform, the eyes averted, spotted her escourt. Uh, busted.

First instinct: To always run in any situation. In any case the birthday girl won't have to see the birthday planners.
Reaction: Quickly turn around and CLIMB up the DESCENDING escalators while everyone else wanted to go down.
Result: Failed
Reason: Speed of escalator was way faster than personal speed to go against the direction

This is lol-worthy yes eva? Why am I always the one doing stupid crazy things in public?

And you know what's the worst thing? Faddy actually saw me running away! All this going against the intentioned direction of the moving escalator, bumping into people and having some cupcakes out of place, it's totally not worth running away!

Days flew this week. Friday was spent jokingly being at loggerheads with khai the whole night while aiman watched us verbally 'fight' and only able to give us too many 'last warnings'. Being with these two dudes, I can totally be myself, be it spewing profanities, fight like no one's business, get crazy. I am entitled to be their what they call "braders"? And I allowed myself to entertain how they could roam about in circles at Bugis just to get a cab. Excuse? Aiman's limping legs. Reason for meet-up? Finding aiman's much needed spongebob water bottle (I KNOW RIGHT). And time flew just by bantering, eating, and.. getting a cab. Wasted Friday night but I guess this is the kinds of things I can afford to do before semester starts.

And zomg, ion orchard is totally crazy. And it's crowded in every sense of the word. Unlike vivo city, it doesn't have an open atrium, I can forget all about navigating the whole place. Such a turn-off. The only plus is that they have everything in there, even PROMOD! Oh and saturday bbq for abg's graduation was nice reminiscing the days at Paaralang Pantao. Smashing time.

Sunday; wedding yada yada.
Need to get some sleep (:
Niights!

Hitam Manis

This is difficult to write, but it's definitely an important one amidst all the conversations we've been having lately. Growing up being brown/Malay wasn't easy, especially when it became ingrained in me that having a darker skin tone by default, is less desired than fairer skin tones. In childhood, I couldn't recall having to endure comments about my skin colour. Thankfully amongst children, these values ascribed to lightness and darkness didn't yet come to the fore. This consciousness became more obvious since secondary school. And it was tough and painful.  I've been in a sports CCA since secondary school and I couldn't really avoid not becoming tanned. What hurts the most was even my peers at that time would make comments about my skin colour without even realising the damage caused from these words. These comments I recall, were sometimes made under the guise of humour. I was called 'budak hitam' (literally means 'black child') and even ...

Infinity

unbounded to any definitions or limits, existing but not adequately known. this entity, being constantly talked about, pulls like an unbeatable gravitational force. we are always approaching, almost touching, existing in tandem, still, not yet meeting Infinity the eventual meeting where there are no bounds
