I'm back, it's hard to believe.

But yes, I am back.

I can't recall when was the last time I last posted,

Or when I even logged in to my blogger account.
But yes I'm glad, that I am back.

So much has happened this year,

and If I were to type it here,

It would be very very long.

But let's take it easy, one step at a time.

Let this be a start, to my updates in life.

Like how I have always posted in the past,
Let this be a start to future updates.

Just so you know,
Ameer Hassaan is still alive.
He still is.

Hello there people, I'm finally back after a long and hectic week.
Life has been pretty much alright, there's ups & downs.
More downs than ups this time round, oh well.
Guess that's life anyways, we just gotta sit back and enjoy the ride.

So lately, I've been spending my free time working with my cousin,
Ali Akbar, on a new short story film. Yeah, a new project.
Now this time round, it's a quite different. Totally.
Why do I say so? Cos for the first time there's no fighting scenes,
Which makes it a peaceful story. I was quite suprised at first.
And as cousin explained the story and passed me the script,
I later realised that it's a genre I've always wanted to act in.
& true enough, I got it. It's a romantic love story!

But this time, it's in both English and Malay, man,
I can't recall the last time I actually speaked proper malay. Haha.
Cousin planned to send this film to a local malay film festival.
Insyallah, all the best to him and may this bring him to greater heights.

Hopefully, the film will be ready by early July,
& I can't wait to watch it. I'd say it's a good movie,
& I enjoy acting in it. Something very different.

So I've added some info and pics about the movie,
It's called "Takdirgraphy."
Hope u'll enjoy it.

"On one fine day, a camera brought together two souls from two different worlds.

Lydia Natasha, who has a knack for losing things, unsuprisingly lost her camera.
Enter Shan Redzuan, musician wannabe and luckily s gentleman, who kindly
returns back her camera. It could have ended there, but fate, or rather cupid,
had something else in mind.

After spending an afternoon together, Shan believes that fate has brought them together.
However, Lydia does not have the same thinking. In order to prove Shan's theory,
Lydia challenged him in the game of fate.

He has to find her within the next hour, or lose her forever.

Will fate favors Shan or will Lydia be proven correct? "

Camera rolling, 3 2 1.. Action!A photographic journey with Lydia Natasha & Shan Redzuan.
"Masa bukan la penentu,
Hanya takdir yang tahu..."

What happens when,
The one you live for,

Leaves you?

2009-06-07T16:37:00.008+08:00

Hey people!
Before I was enlisted,
I helped out my cousin, Ali Akbar,
In a new filming project.

This time round it's not about fights nor umbrellas,
But it's something much more different,
Which I've never done before.

& I'm pretty impressed with the end product,
Don't know wheter to say or not,
But it did give me the goosebumps, haha.
Hope you guys will enjoy it.

P.S Don't watch this alone at night!

" The film is about a group of students shooting a film
at school late one night.
A prank was made on the actress which made the seniors angry.
Their anger was explained through a chilling true story
that occurred many years ago.
Everything seems to be normal but as they say,
nothing is what it seems like... "

POP - OH !!!

Now that's one word I'll always remember,
& looked forward to shouting,
During my final days as a trainee.

So May 7th,
Was that faithful day, where I passed out,
As a full-pledged Police Officer.

After 4 months of training,
The day has finally come to mark the end,
Of the long and memorable journey.

4 months,
Meeting 40 new faces,
Coming from different backgrounds and all walks of life.
It wasn't easy for us to get along, but somehow we still did.
Waking up early in the morning,
Getting punished together,
Having meals, cracking jokes,
Sleeping in the same bunk and hearing each other's snores.
Yeah. You can say 4 months is short,
But it's enough for us to know each other well,
Not really everything,
But just enough to be called "Brothers."

So I'll cut short,
& hope you'll enjoy the pictures below.

Welcome to Home Team Academy!

"Cepat Jalan!"

& there we were, marching with pride and honour.The Parade, was set to go.
The show has begun.Look at the very back, That's my squad!Endure, not even the warm weather will bring us down.& finally, the march-past.My parents were there, to show their support,
& to witness my graduation.

Mum & I.Me & Papa.

Chey, abang2 police sey!

& not to forget, the group of amazing friends I made.

Alliance Bunk, Forever..

So here I present,
Your future Heartlander,
(Just need some hair, haha.)

And I've got my posting,
I'll be posted as NPCO.
For those wondering wads dat, it's
(Neighbourhood Police Centre Officer.)

Yes, I'll be going frontline.
Doing patrols, and enforcing the law.
You know the cops that chase criminals,
Save the cat on the tree,
& ensures your peaceful sleep at night?
Yes, that's what I'll be.

So before I do,
I'll have to undergo 3 more months of training,
at Home Team Academy.

After which,
I'll be posted out to face the real world.

I can't believe that I'll be an NPCO,
But I believe that everything happens for a reason,
& I'll know it as time goes by.

But the good news is that,
I'll be getting FREE Class 3 license, yeah!

Can't wait to start on my new journey.
I'll be back hopefully with more entries,
In times to come.

Until then..

-End-

You will go through tough times.
But it's about coming through that.

2009-05-10T10:00:00.001+08:00

Today's entry goes out specially for my mother.

Dear Mum,

Thanks for all that you've done for me.
Ever since I was enlisted this year,
You never fail to be there; mentally and physically.
I'll always remember the times you eased my burden.
For washing and ironing my clothes,
Cooking my favourite dishes each time I come home.

Thanks for motivating me throughout my NS basic training life.
You were my strength, my motivation and my cure.
Whenever I felt like giving up, the thought of you makes me stronger.
You never fail to shower care, concern and love towards me.
Eventhough you have other children to attend to,
You somehow always have time for me.

Thanks for raising me up the right way,
For teaching me the values of life,
For bringing me closer to God,
For sharing me the experiences may it be good or bad.
I know I might have disappointed you in some ways,
But still, you never gave up on me, even when the world does.
Rest assured, someday I will grow to be the man,
That you'll be proud of.

There could be no other; only you.
You're something that money can't buy.

I've never met someone who's so warm-hearted,
Who's caring, loving, & as nice as you.

I'll always remember you,
& I will tell my children, and my grandchildren,
and the next generation about you,
as long as I'm still alive.

Mum, you're my Hero.
& you'll always be...

Happy Mother's Day.

"There goes my Hero,
Watching as she goes..
There goes my Hero,
She's ordinary.."

So despite my busy schedule,
I managed to get a lil' something for mum.
It's kinda cool. Check it out.

Nice isn't it? Haha.
So I'll be back next week to post about my POP day,
Along with all the wonderful pictures.
Can't believe I've actually passed out.
So stay tuned!

To all the mothers out there,
Happy Mother's Day once again.
Cheers!

-End-

There goes my hero,
Watching as he goes
There goes my hero,
He's ordinary...

Today, is the 3rd of May.
Exactly in 4 more days,
Resembles one of the most important days of my life.
It's not just any other day,
But it's my Passing-Out-Parade (POP) day,
and dat marks the end of my Basic Training.
4 months in the making,
Of sacrifice,hardship, pain and endurance.
Yes, the day is May 7th.

The day that marks the end,
and the beginning of something new.

Overall throughout the course, in my intake,
Of all the many many hundreds of young gentlemen,
I ranked top 10, and my number is 7.
It was a great achievement for me, for I didn't expect to be there.
All along I played and a simple role.
I didn't aim for anything, I just go with the flow.
Wherever it leads me, I'll take it as it's the best for me.
But what makes it unbelievable was that,
The top 6 were all A-Levels students.
That means I'm the top ITE trainee to be in the top 10.
It's really an honour, and a big achievement.
Now I've proved that ITE students do have the potential.

Not all of them are hopeless,
Cos not all are Mats, they're some who's Smart.
Not all are rotten, some are ripe and juicy.
Not all are the same, some bound to be different.
I hope that many more will achieve this in times to come.
Impossible is nothing,
Don't ever give up.
InsyaAllah.

So which posting will I get?

Noone but only God knows.

And I believe wherever I'll go,
He knows it's the best for me.

I hope that after this big day,
I'll have more time to focus on some issues.
Cos perhaps too much time has been taken,

That it resulted in the loss of some things in return.

I gotta figure out what went wrong,
I guess it's now or never.
Until next time...

-End-
There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb..

2009-05-02T23:59:00.001+08:00

Hello guys and girls,
Today I went out with a group of really special people.
They're none other than P.O.G.
Eventhough not all could make it,
I'm still content with the company we had.
Small yet happening, simple and sweet.

So the initial plan was to catch a movie at Marina,
and later on having dinner at Magic Wok;
To celebrate Effy's WAY belated b'day.
To cut short, X-Men Origins: Wolverine was great,
But it could have been much much better.
Effy was kinda disappointed though, cos he's a huge fan.
Still, somehow we all got infected with the I-am-a-mutant disease,
Pretending which mutants we're, and it's really funny.

The dinner was the most memorable part.
Effy didn't know that it's actually a suprise for him,
Until we broke the ice to him. Boy was he really very touched.
He almost cried, wait did I just say that? Haha.

Overall, I really had great day.
In fact, I actually looked forward to it.
I guess friends and do come and go in our lives.
But it's true friends that'll always stay,
and move with you, come what may.

Thanks guys for the great day.
Let's hang out again.

I'll end this post with some pics.
Enjoy!

Linds, Effy, Fizzy & Syak.

Presenting, our featured guest. Ms Ila Fayonce!A group photo with Fayonce,
& below are the solo pics.Once again,
Happy Belated 20th B'day bro.
I wish you all the best in life,
& I hope you'll get a gf soon,
& I mean really really soon.
Cheers!

P.S Brothers look out for each other, always. =)

Hey guys and girls,
Your friendly neighbourhood heartlander is back,
To update on his current happenings in life.

So last week, we were given official leave of 3 days!
It's like a break for us to rest, and catch up on things.
So on one of the days, me and my squadmates decided
To meet up and hangout at.... SENTOSA!

Enjoy the pics below,
Courtesy of Haffiz Harshiddy.

Mooks!

Zheng Yang, Aarun and Mahendran.

Abang2 Ns. Chey!

We've arrived, we've arrived!

A nice tee with a very helpful message.

Me & Mahendran.

Life's a beach.

Soccer; Anytime, and anywhere.
It's a guy's thing.

After a long and hot game on the sands,
It's time to cool down in the waters.

"Everyone put your hands together!"

"At the count of 3, we'll throw this guy up.."

360 degrees of fun. Now who says men can't fly?

Men - In- Blue.

Bunk 12!

The ties that bind,
& a friendship, that'll last,
forever.

Will be back next week with more updates,
Until then..

-End-

It seems wrong
Somewhere along the way
Something has changed..

2009-04-10T21:12:00.015+08:00

Sitting all alone in your room,
Thinking that the world has let you down,
All you ever wanted to do is trust someone to always be around,
You’ve had a lot of lessons to learn from,
Some of them hit you so hard..

And I keep believing someday you’ll see,
you don’t have to be alone..

There’s somebody out there,
Somebody somewhere ,

To show you the tenderness you need
Somebody to hold you when worries control you
I’d give anything,
If only you knew it was me..

I’ve been watching you go through all of these things for a while,
There’s got to be a way to bring you back,
Cos these words sing when you smile,
It doesn’t have to hurt you forever
It doesn’t have to last too long
If you wonder where to turn to
I hope that you'll know..

I want to be there when you’re in need,
I would never be long if you were waiting,
When you’re gonna see, if you could only see,

I'd give anything, anything at all,
I think it's time that,

You knew it was me..

2009-03-29T16:00:00.007+08:00

A week has passed,
Now here I am sitting in front of my laptop,
Trying to figure out what to type.
& I just remembered,
I'm suppose to post my botak pictures today, oh no!!

I bet many have been waiting and wanting to see.
Especially to those close peeps of mine, thanks eh.
So before I show you the main highlight of the day,
Let me update about the mini P.O.G Reunion last saturday.

Last week,
A gathering was held for us Pog-ers.
But due to unforeseen circumstances, a few couldn't make it.
Nevertheless, it's nice to see some faces, like Ayn and Linds.
It's been so long since I last saw them.
But guess they're still the same, haha.
Not to forget, Is, Fizzy, Acak and Syak.
Later on, I got to meet my bros, Yazid and Hasyim.
Haha, It's so good to see Yazid again, after all these time.
Can see his hair is a bit longer, (POP already mah.)

I managed to grab few photos from Fizzy,
So check it out.

From left:Ayn, Fizzy, Aizat, Linds & Me!

Act shy pulak satu-satu nie. Haha.

Overall, it's nice to see them again.
I hope we could have another outing again,
This time, hopefully all 13 of us could make it.
Really missed those times back at school..

I heard some has started with their career,
While some are heading to 2nd year in Poly.
Better, one of us is getting engaged soon by end of this year!
How fast time flies, but whatever it is,
I pray for the best of you guys.

So without any hesitation, fear or whatever shit,
I hereby present,
For the very first time in my blog history,
My BOTAK PICTURES!
(Pls don't laugh, I knw I look funny..)

Dat's me!
& I'm not taking my cap off yet.
So that's what 2 months plus of NS did to me.
I've lost some weight, and
managed to build some muscles up.
Currently, I weight 62 Kg. 2 years ago, i weighed 79 Kg.
Steady ar!
Alright, look below and I'll remove my cap.Taadah! With lotsa courage,
I present you, Ameer Hassaan without hair!
Now I hope you had a good time laughing. =\

So, a week has passed,
and in a few hours time,
I'm ready to report back to camp,
For another whole new week of adventure.
This coming week, will be the last week of March.
Soon, April will be here. (My God!)
This coming week will be the week of exams and test.
After all that we've been taught,
Now it's time to put to good use.

I can't wait for my next book-out.
By then, all will be over.
No more stress, classes or trainings.
We will all be ready to train for our parade,
Not just any parade,
But our Passing-Out-Parade! Haha.

Guess that's all I have for now.
Will be back for my next update soon.
Aight, gotta report to camp now.
Stay tuned..

-End-

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got trains, planes and cars
I'll walk to you,
If I had no other way...

2009-03-22T16:45:00.010+08:00

Today's entry,
Is dedicated to a certain someone.

On every year,
On this very date and day,
Marks a very special day for that person.
It's a day worth remembering,
As it only comes once a year.
& when the clock strikes twelve, it's official.
The faithful day is here, and it'll last for the next 24 hours.

Last year during my b'day,
This person celebrated it with me,
& made it a b'day that I'll never forget.
So this time year, I planned to return the favour.
To celebrate, and make it worthwhile.
But this time round, I planned to do something different.

Cos time flies so fast these days,
We have to make full use of every minute and second.
And the fact that Im serving NS,
Makes it much more challenging.

So after 2 months in the making,
Nights of planning,
& days of day-dreaming,
It's time to carry out Operation - Lily.
In other words, a making suprise b'day party for her.

Initially, Plan A was the main plan.
But because it's my 1st time ever doing something like this.
Soon it failed, along with Plan B, and C.
Her b'day falls on Sunday, 22 of March.
But problem is I have to book in to camp at night,
& there's no other alternatives.

But after much thinking,
I decided to do it on 21st of March, at night.
Though it might be a lil' too early,
It's better than late, or never.

So here's Plan D:
1) Buy her a b'day gift.
2) Getting a b'day cake.
3) Buying lightsticks, and sparklers.
4) Head to Pasir Ris, reach her playground, and decorate it.
5) Use the lightsticks to create a Superman formation.
6) Once done, place candles on cake, and position it at the center of the formation.
7) Practice a b'day song. I forgot, so I improvised and created a new song in 2 min.
8) Check wheter everything is in position,
9) Call her to come down and meet for a while. (She'll think it's just a casual meeting)
10) Fetch her from the lift, and bring her to the area.
11) The suprise is on.

If everything from 1 to 10 is alright, then Operation - Lily is a success.
So Alhamdulilah, all went well.
& the operation was a success. (Whew)
Check out the pics below.

The lightsicks were used to create a Superman formation,
And along with her name and age.
This picture is taken with flash.This is how it looks like in the dark, without flash.I'm suppose to sing a b'day song,
But because I was so nervous,
I forgot.
Luckily I managed to improvise,
& created last-min version. Whew.So there it is, with the cake in the middle just as planned.

& after she blows the candles,
I took a deep sigh of relief.
The operation was a success,
and all went as planned.

Big thanks to Ian Lim, and Effy,
For helping me out in this.
Without you guys,
I couldn't possibly have done this on my own,
So thank you, once again.

HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY,
Nurliyana Bte Alim.
I wish you Success,
Strength,
and best wishes for your future.
Most of all,
I wish you happiness.
Thanks for everything,
& I hope u'll like your 20th B'day.
P.S I'm sorry If I sang a screwed-up b'day song.

May God bless you,
Always..
=)

Afterwhich, I made my way back home.
All the way to the other side of the country, Yew Tee.
Eventhough it's quite far away, I guessed it's worth it.

I believe that b'days are worth remembering,
Cos it only happens once a year.
But what makes it even better,
Is when you see the person smile,
with full of joy and happiness.
Especially when you catch them by suprise.
It's definitely worth it, definitely.

Aight, I gtg now.
Next week, I'll post my botak pictures.
Stay tuned...

-End-

It's a long road when you face the world alone.
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold.
You can find love if you search within yoursel,
and the emptiness you felt will disappear.

2009-03-15T17:00:00.000+08:00

In life, humans never failed to dream;
Every minute, every second, & everyday,
We never fail to dream, even when we're not sleeping.

Some dream to be rich and famous,
While some dream to make a discovery.
Cos every individual has his/her own dreams.
But how often do our dreams come true?
& to make that happen, have we tried hard doing so?

All my life I dreamed of doing this particular something,
and never have I thought I would have achieved this,
Until last week in camp..

It was thursday, and we're all getting ready for our final IPPT.
This is the last chance for those who wants to achieve glory,
Cos after today, there'll be no more physical trainings.
This marks the end of it all.
Instructors have done their best for the past 2 months,
Training us, making us run like mad dogs,
Doing up to 300 push-ups a day.
Even pull-ups seemed unavoidable.
But they did it all for one purpose, not for their entertainment,
But for our benefit.

There's 5 stations we need to complete;
- Sit-ups
- Pull-ups

- Shuttle run
- Standing board jump

- and lastly, 2.4km run.

Out of 5, I have least confidence in the last 2.
They have always been a problem back in school.
To pass, minimum u must get 2 to 3 points for each station.
To get Silver, at least 3 to 4 points for each station.
To get Gold, at least 4 to 5 points for each station.
But you must run below 9.45min. (additional criteria)
Honestly, I told myself, "Just do your best, and aim for silver."
I wasn't feeling well either, but I decided to take it still.

& syukur alhamdulilah,
With God's permission,
I achieved GOLD for my finall IPPT. Woo!
I scored solid 5 points for every station,

That makes it full score of 25/25.

I couldn't believe it, but it's for real.
I did it. Finally.

Since secondary school,
My timing has always been 11 min plus.
It's not that I'm a bad runner, it's just that I don't have endurance.
& my 2.4 results have been consistent all the way thru.

But now, I've made history.
Thanks to one buddy of mine in my squad,
Ian Lim Te Chun.
This guy is born to run.
He's been running marathons since school,
and to him running is like a hobby.
I still recall what he said,
"Ameer, run beside me, & i"ll bring you Gold."

I'll laugh like mad, cos it's impossible to run at least 9.45min.
For a person like me, no way.
My first two IPPTs were silver,
and my timings were only 10.20, 10.11,
That was the best I could do.

But I'm glad that thursday I decided to follow him.
and If I didn't, I would never have thought,
That I could run that fast, hell yeah.
That day, I stretched my limits. I went further than I usually could.
I went faster, and bounced harder. I kept proper breathings,
and kept telling myself I could do it.

The first 2 rounds of 6 was alright,
But when it came to 4th and 5th,
I reached my climax, & I wanted to give up.
I felt like vomitting, and stomach suffered pains.
I felt like stopping, and just walk.
But at a split moment, somehow I found the strength to carry on.

I asked myself,
"If I always give up on something that I want to achieve,
Then forever I'll always lose.
& I can't blame others for having better results than me.
I can't possibly live life full of regrets."

Suddenly it all made sense.
I've realised why I didn't get the things I want in the past.
Cos I always give up, & I never tried to hang on,
& strive harder.
So at that very moment I learned a new thing,
and made a choice for the first time in my life;
Not to quit.

So I decided to keep on running, and aim for the finishing line.
Every step I take, brings me closer to victory.
Every second I waste, takes Gold away from me.
I ran like mad until my vison was all blurry and white,
Then I finally reached the end.
I took a glance on the electronic board and saw my timing.

9.44 min.

For the first time in many years,
I felt so happy and proud of myself.
I overcame a factor that has been a fear,
Not only that, I went further than expected.
I learned a new thing that day, and realised I can achieve more.
NS really moulds boys into men.

Now that I've learned a new quality,
It's time to chase after my other dreams.
This time round, I won't give up that easily.
=)

-End-

And as you dream,
So shall you become..

2009-03-08T17:00:00.003+08:00

I glanced at the calendar,
& can hardly believe my eyes.
Today's the 8th, of March.
The first week has already went,
and the second awaits.
3 more weeks to the end of March,
and to welcome the arrival of April.

Two days ago, was the 6th.
It's official;
I've been enlisted for 2 months now.

Looking back at how far I've come,
I can't believe how fast time flies.
Sometimes yesterday feels just like the 6th of Jan,
The first day of enlistment. God it still does.

So far,
I've completed two IPPTs, and earned silver for both.
Shooting is done too, and I got Marksman.
This coming thursday will be my last and final IPPT.
After that, no more physical training,
No more sweating like a pig and running mad like a dog.
After thursday, we'll say goodbye to all of those.

March,
Will be a month full of exams.
Everything that we've learned so far as the Men-in-blue,
Will be tested. Our brains will function twice as much,
Which means stress will eventually follow thru.
But the good thing's that, March will pass very fast.
The next thing you know, April's here.

Come April,
There will be no more exams, trainings, and anything more.
It will just be drills, drills, and more drills,
To prepare ourselves for our passing-out-parade in May.
The day we all look forward to; our freedom.

Currently,
I'm doing fine, and coping well.
I've adjusted myself to NS life and look foward to every single day.

I guess, I really feel happy for my squad mates who're attached.
Every night, one by one will be talking on the phone with their loved ones.
Sharing their experiences, feelings, and doing some catching up.
It's good to see them smile, after a long and tiring day of training.
Sometimes I wonder how it feels like to be in their shoes.
To be able to share what I feel with someone,
Wheter it's good or bad, happy or sad.
To know that by just hearing a voice is enough to make your night,
Even without seeing that person.
Lucky them.

& me,
I'll just gaze at the ceilings trying to see some stars,
of course in the end I'm not able to, haha.

Many asked, "how's yr girlfriend?"
And I'll just laugh and said, "I don't have a gf."
They'll look damn shocked and suprised.
"Why don't you have one?"
"Too many to choose from issit?"
"Go and get a gf lar!" Haha.

Some of my mates even wanted to match-make me with thier friends,
But I had to disappoint them by saying no.
It's not that I don't want to, Im not playing hard to get.
I'll just leave my fate in God's hands, cos only He knows wads best for me.

Let's see what He has for me.
Let's give it some time.
Let's not rush into things,
But appreciate and learn as much as we can first.

I guess everything in life happens for a reason,
And I'm confident that God knows what's best for me.
So I'll keep on praying for more good things to come.
Insyallah.

Guess that's all I have for now,
Will be back soon with more updates.

Until then..

She walks in Beauty,
Like the night
Of cloudness climes and starry skies,
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes..

Don't you give up on me

Take off your jacket
Don't walk out that door

You and me
We should be
Making a memory whenever we're together, yeah
Look at me
Can't you see
We were meant to be
Making a memory

Don't pretend you're not smiling again
Let's just leave it
You know I didn't mean it
Don't know why we put up such a fight
Over nothing
When we could still be something

Take off your jacket
Don't walk out that door
There's no need to leave anymore, yeah

You and me
We should be
Making a memory whenever we're together, yeah
Look at me
Can't you see
We were meant to be
Making a memory

Can't do this myself
No, I need some help
We all need some help

Friday night's such a beautiful night
Now you're staying

You and me
We should be
Making a memory whenever we're together, yeah
Look at me
Can't you see
We were meant to be
Making a memory

-End-

If I could,
Then I would
I'll go wherever
You will go...

" Missing someone gets easier everyday because even though
you are one day further from the last time you saw them,
you are one day closer to the next time you will..."

-End-

You're the voice I hear inside my head,
The reason that I am singing,
I need to find you.

I gotta find you..

2009-01-27T17:53:00.004+08:00

I folded my clothes, and arranged them in order.
I ensure that everything is in place, and ready to be packed.
Then I started packing, putting them in one by one.
Clothes, shoes, toiletries and food.
In 2 hours time I'll be leaving home again, and report to camp.
I feel sad to leave, but look forward at the same time.

While wearing my uniform, I looked at myself in the mirror.
I took one very good look, from head to toe.
Is this really me? Is that person looking back at me, is myself?
I paused, and looked again.

It is me. Definitely. Positive.
I laughed for a while.
I can't believe I've grown up.
This year, I'll be turning 20. Yes, 20.
And right now, I'm serving my national service.
I used to recall back when I was a kid.
Usually I'll freak out when I heard that all guys must leave home,
and shaved their heads bald.
I rmb praying that I'll never have to go, hoping for a miracle to happen.
Since then, it has been my greatest nightmare.

Over the years as I grew, the nightmare still lived within.
I feared about leaving home,
I feared about not seeing my mother, and family,
I feared about not getting to live with privelages,
I feared about not seeing my friends,
I feared about seeing ghosts instead,
I feared about not being able to do push-ups and pull-ups,
I feared about the intensive trainings, and strict timetable,
most of all, I feared about not coming back, At all.

But today,
As I look back at those fears,
I realised that It has all gone. Vanished.
I realised again, that as you grow up, you'll learn to overcome your fears.
And to do dat, you have to face fear itself in the eyes.

Today, I'm glad to say that Fear is what made me.

Time flies fast, and the next thing I know,
My POP is there.
Somehow I can sense that lotsa of good things are about to come in my life.
Insyallah, it will., and I'll always pray for the best.

I really look forward to this biggest transformation in my life.
Remembering what Fana used to tell me,
"I know that someday you will be the man that you deserve, to be."

From just a boy, to become the Man-of Steel.
I guess it's just about time. =)

-End-

To be more than a name,
Or a face in the crowd,
I know that this is the time,
This is the time of my life.

2009-01-26T19:00:00.004+08:00

"It's not what the country can do for you,
But it's what you can do for the country... "

To everyone reading this,
First of all let me wish you a very Happy Lunar New Year.
May this day brings good fortune, and luck.

So here I am, I'M BACK!!
Yes, I'm back.

Looking at today's date, it just amazes me.
26th Jan. How fast time really flies.
Yeah. It's been 20 days since I've been enlisted, into the force.
The next thing you know, February's here.
Just a few more days and we'll welcome the 2nd month of the year,
& I've been in camp for a month already.
My oh my. Oh wells.

& you all must be wondering how's NS life so far for Ameer Hassaan right?
Haha. So let's get it going.
Alhamdulilah, NS life has been great, been fun, and I really enjoy it.
You get to meet new people, from totally different backgrounds.
Indians, Chinese, Malays and Eurasians.
All mixed together to be trained as one, to achieve a common goal.
You embark on a new life, learning new things, and exercising intensively.
You'll get fitter, and healthier as the days goes by.

But sadly, I MISS MY HAIR!!!
Whenever I look back at my old pictures, I really feel sad.
I still recall the 1st day, when they shaved my head.
For once my head felt lighter, and it's not warm anymore. Haha.
But I couldn't sleep that night. Cos it really felt different.
And it took me 5 days to accept the fact that my hair is gone, and Im botak now.
Esp after bathing, I'm suprised with just one wipe my hair is dry.
God, I miss my hair. It's as though part of me has died.
But I have to learn to adapt, and accept it for now.
Cos someday I know It will grow again.
This time I'll make sure I'll cherish it like mad!

Unfortunately, I can't say much about what's happening inside the academy,
As it's strictly restricted, according to the Official Secrets Act.
Chey! Speaking sey.

But overall,
It's a totally great experience.
I've been in NCC for almost 7 years,
But nothing can be compared to what is installed in the Police Force.

It's true what the orang lama (senior officers) says;
"Being a Police Officer is the only job which tests your true courage."

Imagine wearing the uniform, and armed with weapons.
With all eyes looking at your every step,
Your shoulders are heavy with responsibilities.
And it's your duty to ensure the peacekeeping in the country.

Some have asked, "Will you sign on?"
I'll just laugh. Maybe? I'll give them 2 years to brainwash me.
Then we'll see wheter they're successful or not.
But I'd say it's definitely a noble job, with great benefits.

NS has moulded me, and slowly it will.
I'm definitely looking forward to this new adventure.
Especially the part where I'll eventually grow to be a man.
Not just any man, but a man that's responsible with good principles.
At times, I can't believe I've already enlisted.
And this year itself I'll turn 20. Yes, my last year as a teenager.
My god, time really is flying fast.
Come October next year, I will ORD. I've served my time for the country.

I'll say life is short, and time flies very fast.
I can't see myself in 5 or 10 years time.
But I'm appreciating every single moment of my life.
Making full use of it, to ensure a bright and stable future.

We humans may plan, but only Allah knows.
Insyallah, He will give the best for us.

So I guess that's all I have for now,
Will update the next time I book out.
Hopefully with my botak pictures. Haha.

Until then,
Have a great day once again.
Cheers!

-End-

We'll meet again,
Someday, somehow, somewhere...

2009-01-06T00:00:00.004+08:00

You are hereby required under section 10,
of the Enlistment Act (Cap 93) to report for enlistment on

06 Jan 2009 (TUE) AT 8.30 AM
to POLICE ACADEMY (PA)

So the suspense is over,
& the time has come for me to serve the nation.

At the age of 19,
I'm leaving my family, my home, and everything else behind,
To embark on a new journey in life.
National Service. The greatest phase in a man's life.
It is during these 2 years that boys will change to men.
This is the very process I've been looking forward to.
To witness the growth and transformation in myself.

So to all those who wished me luck and bid me farewell,
I would like to thank you all once again.

During NS,
I hope that I'll turn and transform into a man,
Whose much more mature and responsible.
I hope I'll get closer to God, and carry out my duties as a Muslim.
I hope that I'll be fitter, and improve on my physique.
I hope that I'll learn as much knowledge as I can,
& apply it to my daily life.
Insyallah, I hope to achieve all these.

So this will be my last post for now.
As I have a confinement period of 10 days,
I won't be back home until the 16th of January 2008.
If I'm not tired, I will update on my first 10 days in camp.

Goodbye people,
Goodbye comb,
Goodbye wax,
Goodbye N95,
& Goodbye to you,
My precious hair.
I'll miss you! Sobs.

Until then,
As'salamualaikum.

-End-

P.S I think I have an idea of how it looks like to be in blue.

The Process, Has Begun.

2009-01-04T23:59:00.001+08:00

Hey there people,
I'm back.

Sorry for being Missing-In-Action for a week.
Not because I'm lazy to update,
But I was too too too too busy to update.
Haha. Yeah.

The previous week, was the greatest week ever.
I went out almost everyday,
To meet my friends, and spend quality time with them.

As I'm typing this,
In exactly 2 more days I'll be enlisting.
Some of you may already know where Im heading to,
While some may not.
So I'll be updating about it hopefully on my last entry before I head in.

But before that,
Let me update on where and what I've been doing this past few days.

Tuesday: Farewell Dinner with the Cast/Crew of BeaT 2.
Wednesday: Farewell Meal with the East-side people.
Thursday: Meet-up with an old friend, to collect overdue B'day Present.
Friday: Tennis session with Brotherhood, & Farewell meal.
Saturday: An Evening with Supergirl.
Sunday: Went to Mustafa Centre to buy all the stuffs for NS.

So yeah,
That was how I spent my last week of freedom.
& alhamdulilah, I really enjoyed it.
Cos I get to spend time with all the people I'm close with.
At least now I don't have any regrets,
& can sleep peacefully in the upcoming nights.

Anw,
I've posted more about how my days were below with pictures.
So check it out if you have the time.

Cheers!

-End-

2 more days...

An Evening with Supergirl.

This week,
Has so far been the greatest week ever for me.
Cos almost everyday I've been going out,
Meeting friends, and having farewell meals.
& so, after settling outings with all of them,
There's one last outing left,
& I'm saving the best, for the last.

A day with Supergirl.
=)

After going cycling with her last year in 08,
She mentioned about Rollerblading,
cos it's been ages since she actually went.
So I told her that someday I'll take her,
& alhamdulilah, today was the faithful day.

Usually, whenever I go out with her,
I'll head over to the east-side, where it's much more convenient for her.
But somehow today, be it God's miracle,
She decided to come all over the west,
to meet me.

It took me some time to actually believe that it's true, haha.
Like she said, it's a once in while thingy.

So we planned to meet at Clementi, at 5pm.
But due to unforeseen circumstances,
That someone came at 5.45pm.
& I waited for 45 minutes. HA HA HA.
But It was partly my mistake,
Cos she did text me saying she'll be a lil late,
& I only read her msg when I was in the train.
But no worries, It's always good for the guy to be earlier.
In fact, I've always been waiting.

We then took Bus 196, to east coast.

Along the way,
We listened songs on my Ipod,
& enjoyed the great scenery.
It was a great ride,
Cos you'll travel from the west to the east,
and also it was a good timing as we kinda watch the sunset in the bus,
While travelling near esplanade area.

We reached ECP bout 7.45pm,
& headed to the blade shop.

We rented for an hour, and off we go.
For a start, we both had our difficulties.
Cos it's been so so long since we each bladed.
But after some time we could manage,
& we bladed by the beach, the people,
With the company of the sea breeze.

It was great I'd say,
Cos Im a person who loves the beach.
So each time I head there, I'll definitely appreciate it.
I really envy people who lives near the beach. Haha.

So after an hour,
We returned our blades,
& made our way home.

We walked out and took Bus 15 back to Pasir Ris.
Inside the bus, we had a good talk again,
Just like how we had on wednesday.

After about 45min, we reached Pasir Ris,
and took another bus to her place since it was getting late.

Reaching her place,
We bid each other farewell.
I really had a great evening,
So thank you Supergirl,
For spending it with me.

I hope you'll take good care of yourself,
and I wish you all the best in life and school.
I hope to meet you again someday,
Just that I'll have no more spikey hair. Haha.
But yeah, thank you once again.

& I hope you'll like the gift.

=)

3 more days...

A Day With The East-Side.

On Wednesday,
I had a date with 3 great people from the East.
They're none other than J-Man (Junjie), Faizah,
& Supergirl.

Knowing that I'll be enlisting soon,
Faizah planned to have a farewell meal for me,
& a mini-reunion since it's been a long time we all hanged-out.

Initially, we planned to meet at 6pm at Bugis.

Faizah planned to have dinner, and later chill while waiting for the fireworks.
And as always, things don't usually go as planned.
Somehow Supergirl and J-Man ended school early, too early I'd say,
& we all ended up meeting at 3pm at City Hall.

So we headed down to Marina Square,
& grabbed a few drinks at Starbucks.
I don't know if It's just me,
But somehow I think there's a problem with the wireless connection there.
Oh wells.

After that,
We went down to esplanade and watched a band performance.
They were rehearsing for later at 7pm,
& were ensuring that all the sounds and equipments are in top condition.
They played good, mostly songs from "The Killers."
Not bad I'll say. Watching them perform makes me feel like performing!
Haha. Maybe someday I guess?
Somehow I just feel that I'll end up there, on the stage anyways.
It's just a matter of time.

So we manage to take some pictures.
Check it out.

At about 6 plus,
J-Man and Faizah made their way home,
& we bid each other farewell.

Me and Supergirl walked to Bugis,
and later chilled at a very nice place,
We had a talk, about life, while watching the sunset.
The place was very beautiful I'd say.
With waterfalls, classic statues, and a nicely decorated garden.
Everything was just perfect, surely a very romantic place at night.

Thus,
I really enjoyed my day,
& would like to thank Faizah for planning all this,
& also to J-Man and Supergirl for joining this outing.

I wish you people all the best in life, and school.
Can't wait to see you all graduating in a few month's time.

Once again,
Thank You very much.

Hope to see you soon.
Cheers!

A Day with BEAT 2 Cast/Crew Members.

On Tuesday,
I had a date with the Cast/Crew of BeaT 2.
& It will be a day I'll never forget.
On the Friday, 26th of December,
I was involved in another film by Ali Akbar,
Called the Untitled Horror Project.

After a few days of editting,
My cousin organised a gathering to let us see the film,
& at the same time made a farewell dinner for me,
As I'm going to be enlisting soon.

We met at Bukit Batok MRT at 3plus,
& made our way to Bugis.

Our journey will be shown much clearer with pictures below.
Check it out.

Bugis!

Ali Akbar telling us the plans for the day.
Our initial plan was to head to Zam Zam restaurant.
But somehow it was 'postponed' till later. Wonder why.Bruno!We then proceeded to Bugis Junction,
Where we bought light snacks first to fill our empty stomach.
Somehow along the way, some of us 'disappered'
& that left us searching for them.We waited and waited. Aslam, why so serious? Haha.

I managed to get green apple juice along the way.
Then finally, after about 20min, the people who vanished,
Came back suddenly. We then went to McDonalds.
Hmm.. Wonder where they've been.We chilled outside McD, while some bought ice creams, and Mcflurry. I managed to grab a copy of Today's Newspaper,
& read the sports section.
It not only attracted my attention. Haha. After that, we finally went to Zam Zam Restaurant.

Serene.Arvind, future Vasantham Star. Haha.

We talked while waiting for our food.
After 10min, our food arrived.
We said our prayers and I was about to start,
When I noticed everybody started giggling and were smiling.
Then Ali Akbar said.

"Cousin, from all of us in BeaT 2,
Here's a lil something from us.
Hope you like it."
He then handed a red plastic bag with white polka dots.

I opened it, and took a look inside.
& I laughed. It was a hat!

Taadah! Haha.
Initially they wanted to get me either a comb, or wax.
Due to the fact cos I love my hair so much.
Haha. Basket.

We ate till about 7, and walked around.
We walked along the streets,
To find a suitable place to watch the Horror Film.
And along the way,
We visited our fav place.

yes, the famous Haji Lane. Forgotten?
Then look below.In case you've forgotten, this was the best fight scene ever,
In BeaT 2. It was the scene everyone rmbered as the best,
Most toughest and demanding fight scene ever in our lives.Reason was simply, after hours of re-take,
& fighting under the heavy rain,
At the end of the shoot, the tape was spoilt.
Haha. =)

Serene then suggested we chill at a place,
Where it looks like Wayne Enterprise.

& the film began!
Overall, it was a nice one.
For a start, we definitely did a good job.
But I know in future, we can do a much better one.
Congrats to cousin and his crew! At about 10pm, we made our way back home.

On the way back home, we exchanged ghost stories.
& seriously it was damn thrilling ar, haha.
That some of us were very scared. (Including guys.)

In the train.

So after alighting at our own respective stations,
We bid each other farewell.
I really enjoyed my day, esp with the company of great friends.

No words can describe how touched I am,
By the warm and friendly gestures of my friends.
So from the bottom of my heart,
I would like to thank you all,
For coming that day, and for contributing to buy me the gift.

I'm glad that once in my life I get to meet you guys.
& I'm sure, that this won't be the last time we're meeting.
I look forward to meeting you guys again, someday.
Only that I''ll be botak by then. Haha.

So guys, thank you once again.
Cheers!

Thanks for the great memories.

Permanent - David Cook

Is this the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my broken promise that you’ll never see me cry
And everything, it will surely change even if I tell you I won’t go away today
Will you think that you’re all alone
When no one’s there to hold your hand?
And all you know seems so far away and everything is temporary rest your head
I’m permanent

I know he’s living in hell every single day
And so I ask oh god is there some way for me to take his place
And when they say just touch and go I wish I could make it go away
But still you say
Will you think that you’re all alone when no one’s there to hold your hand?
When all you know seems so far away and everything is temporary, rest your head
I’m permanent
I’m permanent

Is the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my promise that you’ll never see me cry

I've been listening to this almost every night.
Very meaningful, very soothing.
Thanks to Nurul Ain for this song.

Last sunday,
I met up with the gang,
For a nice meal followed by a soccer match later that evening.
& it's nice to see them again after a long long time.

So thanks to Fique for the pics.
Enjoy!

Azril, Shappa and Azim.

The view during sunset.

& the view at night.

Die-hard fans!

Last group photo of the day.

Well, too bad Singapore lost to Vietnam.
I was a bit disappointed,
For we had lotsa of opportunities to score.
But nevertheless the Lions fought hard and tried their best.
Now let's hope they'll do better for the Asian Cup in 2011.
Go Lions Go!

Hey there.
I just came back home from the gym at Jurong.
Today I met up with my bro Aizat, and we spent almost 4 hours there!
Yeah, we totally had a great time working out.
Starting with 20 min on the bike,
Another 20 on the treadmill,
and the rest of the time lifting weights.
Overall, it was definitely worth it.
Can see the results. Haha.

Yeah, we should do this more often bro.
Confirm can have a nice body in no time.

Anyways,
Something happened last friday.
Okie, here's what happened.

I was at Jurong East MRT,
In the train heading towards woodlands.
So since there's no more seats, I stood somewhere at the middle.
I was listening to songs on my phone, when I had the urge to look to the right.
& when I did, I happened to see a girl standing somewhere near the door.
She was wearing green, with long hair, & nicely dressed up.
Kinda caught my attention cos she's attractive too.
So when she's not looking, I looked.
But the more I look at her, the more familiar she looks.
Then I really paid full attention and looked closely.
& I realised, "oh my god! It's her!"

My heart started beating very fast, as if a dog is chasing me.
I looked straight, and tried to keep cool.
It was her, yes, my classmate in primary school.
The girl I used to have a crush on back then.
My very first ever.

I then started to "curi2 tengok" at her.
You know that kind of look Peter Parker did when looking at Mary Jane?

Haha.

She definitely has grown up, definitely.

Part of me wanted to approach her and say hi,
But I when I remembered wad happened in pri 4,
When my trusted friend didn't kept my secret and told her I liked her,
I decided not to. Cos I rmb she didn't want to talk to me eversince. Ever!
So better not. Or she might just kick me on the spot.

When she alighted, I took one last look.
Maybe I should have at least said hi.
Then can contact and keep in touch.
Now I really regret not doing so.
See lar, for what become guy.

But nvm. At least I get to see her again right?
After 7 long years.

When I reached home, the 1st thing I did was to look at the class photo.
Yeah, It was her. Confirm. The girl standing on the 1st row.
I thought I'll never see or hear from her again.

But I was wrong.
=)

Hey there people, sorry for the late update.
I just returned home safely from a vacation trip to Malaysia.
It's great, definitely the right time and moment for me to relax & unwind,
After a hell's week spent at work working deadly+tiring shifts each day. Whew.
The trip's also meaningful as I get to spend quality time with my family.
As I'm going to be enlisted soon, there's chances I might not get
to go holiday-ing with them again for the next two years. Sad huh?
But nevertheless, I'm thankful I get to spend this vacation with them.

& thousands of apologies to Titans, esp Maya,
For not being able to join you guys for the outing on saturday.
I hope we could meet up again sometime soon.

So I plan to update & post pictures about the trip,
But there's something more important I've yet to post.

Last Friday, 11th December 2008,
Was my final day at work. Yes, it's official.
After all these months of sacrifices, pain, & efforts,
I finally get to witness the day that I've been waiting for.
I'd say nothing can describe that very feeling I felt,
When I waved goodbye to my colleagues,
& walked my way out.
Freedom. Yes. Finally.

While on the way home,
I had mixed feelings: Happy and Sad.

Happy cos' I don't have to work anymore,
Sad cos' I'm leaving a great bunch of people; my colleagues.

But guess life definitely has to move on right?
& all that's left are wonderful memories.
It's priceless, and everlasting.
I'll always carry it with me throughout my journey in life.

So let me take this time to thank my colleagues,

19 more days to go...

2008-12-06T22:54:00.001+08:00

& the countdown begins.

30 more days to go..

2008-12-06T22:27:00.002+08:00

On 30th November,
I lied on my bed and watched the clock struck twelve.
"December's here, it's finally here."
How fast time flies.

On 1st December,
I stepped inside the salon, and got a haircut.
"This would be my last haircut, that has my say in it."

On 2nd of December,
I went to work, and collected my punch-card.

Every month requires a new one,
To record your work timings.
And this time I looked at it, and smiled.
"This would be the last punch-card I'm taking."

On the same day,
3 new staffs joined us,
They were Qabeer, Dimas and Jerome.

On 3rd of November,
Another new staff joined us,
His name is Salihin,
Also known as Supergirl's younger brother.

From the 2nd to the 4th of December,
I've had one of the most enjoyable moments at work.
This might sound weird, but I actually did.
Eventhough I just met Qabeer,
It seems as though we've met before.
Best friends in the making, right imah? =)

Not forgetting the dudes Hairil and Hidayat,
They certainly rocked my world.
Their craziness and hyperactive attitude,
Makes me wanna work full shift everyday.
But provided only if they're there.

The 3 other boys, Salihin, Dimas and Jerome,
They're the youngest promoters ever employed.
Yeah. Only 15. Still young, and playful.
But don't let that affect anything,
Cos they definitely can sell shoes. Not just one, but 14.
Impressive for a beginner huh?

Sometimes I wonder why when good things always happens,
It never could last long.
That's when I realised that in this world,
Nothing lasts forever.

I'm certainly going to miss them, along with other colleagues.
Cos this coming week, would be my final week with 9 West.
I've extended again, due to Nigel's request.
As long as the manager needs me, I'll keep on extending and working.
But for now, my last day is finalised.

15th of December.

And as I'm typing this,
It's already the 6th of December.
Yes, exactly in 1 month's time,
I will be enlisted. To where, I'll tell you soon.
And speaking of 6th December,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Yazid & Shafiqah.
May you have an enjoyable & pleasant day today.

That's all I have for now.
1 more week of work,
& 1 more month of freedom.

My time is running out..

-End-

Sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck

When the signal keeps on breaking up

When the wires cross in my brain

You’ll start my heart again

When I come along

2008-11-17T00:01:00.006+08:00

Yesterday,
Was one of my fellow buddy's last day at work.
Yes, he's none other than the talented,
Mr Nurhasyim a.k.a Acim.

Hasyim has been working with 9 West for I-don't-know-how-long,
But long enough to the point that almost everyone knows him. Haha.
He will be enlisted next month, on 9 Dec, into the Police Academy.
So we all bid him farewell, and wished him all the best,
In his future.

Also, yesterday might be the last day of work for another buddy of mine,
Yes, he's Sher Yazid. The man who introduced me this job.
He too will be enlisted soon, on 6 Jan 2009, into the Civil Defence Academy.
So far he has not confirmed wheter he will be coming back,
But in any case, I hope he will.

So currently, I'm all alone now.
Yes, It's just me, the seniors/full-timers.
There'll be nobody to joke or play around anymore,
To eat lunch or dinner with,
My journey to and fro will be just me,
Just me, myself and I.
Sad huh?

So far I've extended my working contract.
My last day might be on the 30th of November,
or the 15th of December.

I will be enlisted next year, on the 6th of Jan 2009.
So I thought of spending my last moments of freedom,
Spending time with my loved ones,
Working out,
& doing things that I've been wanting to do.

So I have 2 more weeks to confirm.

Honestly,
I don't even know why I'm still working.
I can't seem to find my reasons.
Cos usually ppl work to earn money to pay this, and that.
My reason initially was to buy a new handphone.
& now, I already got the hp I wanted.
But to think about it,
I'll have nothing to do at home If I stopped working now.
Then I'll start to regret and die of boredom.

Guess for the time being,
I'll keep on working, and earn more money.
I'll start saving for the future,
Yes, that's my plan.
Like they always said,
"Sediakan payung sebelum hujan."
You might never know when you'll need it.

But somehow,
I sense a deeper purpose of staying on. =)

So that's all I have for now.
I'll end today's entry with some pictures.
Enjoy.

Hasyim.Sher Yazid.Your future friendly neighbourhood Policemen. Haha.The 3 Amigos of 9 West.

P.S I'll definitely miss the good times.

-End-

In life, we have to be steady,
& do what's right.
Soemtimes we have to give up things we want the most,
For the people that we love.

2008-11-12T23:30:00.011+08:00

I'm back.

I realised that the last time I posted an entry was last friday.
Thanks to work, I hardly blog nowdays.
But I'll try to update whenever I have the time.
So since today's my off-day,
Let's use this precious chance to update.

--------------------------------------------------

Wednesday, 5th November 2008.

Last week, the guys came over to my place at 1pm for Tennis.
The players were as usual; Effy, Is & Mr.B.
Since it's been a long time since we met and played,
So we decided catch-up and refresh our skills.

But sadly, the weather wasn't friendly at all,
& we had to end our game.
It wasn't satisfying as it was only an hour when we played.
But not to worry guys, cos there will be a next time.

Moving on,

After tennis, we went our seperate ways.
The guys went to Cotton On a t Lot 1 to shop,
While I made my way to meet Supergirl,
To catch a great movie.

One word. "Awesome."
Eventhough the pace of the movie is kinda fast,
But overall it's worth it.
Thanks to the great movie soundtracks and cast,
It sure made my day.

Right Supergirl? =)

--------------------------------------------------

Saturday, 8th November 2008.

I got an sms from Supergirl,
Asking me wheter I would like to catch a play with her.
Her elder sis got two free tickets, but couldn't make it cos she's unwell.
Coincidently, I've always been interested in theater plays.
So since I'm free, I said yes, & off we go.

The play is called Gemok Girls,
& it's held at Marine Parade Community Centre.

It's directed by Alvin Tan,
& performed by Najib Soiman, Aidli 'Alin' Mosbit & Siti Khalijah.
The show is about activists and politics. It dates back to the early days in S'pore.
Overall, I'd say it's two thumbs up.
Thanks to the great casts and storyline.

& 'someone' teared during one of the sad scenes! Haha.
=p

The show lasted about 90 minutes, & after that,
We didn't know where or what to do.
But somehow we're very good at improvising and doin last min planning.
So we had our lunch at LJS at Parkway Parade,
& did some window shopping after that.

I looked at my watch, it's still 4 plus.
It was kinda early to go home on a saturday right?

& since we were near to East Coast Park,
We went cycling. Haha.
Totally random. I know.

Thanks to the great camera of N95,
We managed to snap some pics.
Check it out.

When night comes, & the stars go blue.

Embracing the great view.

Someone has talent in taking pictures. Wonder who.

The fountain sure caught our attention.

It's never too late to take pictures I guess? =)

So the night ended,
& I admit I had a really enjoyable day.

It's been some time since I went to the sea, and felt the sea breeze.
Eventhough I wore jeans while cycling,
That sure is a good feeling,
Cos' for once, I felt free from all the troubles in life.
It's a must to come again, and the next time will be Roller-blading. =)

& I just remembered, I forgot to post about my NS Letter! Haha.
But I guess I'll do it in my next entry.
That's all I have for now.
Until then.

-End-

I wished time could slow down.

2008-11-07T23:59:00.004+08:00

RULE #1 People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs
and replace any question that they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves.

RULE #2 Tag 5 people to do this quiz and those who are tagged cannot refuse.
These people must state who they were tagged by and cannot tag the person whom they were tagged by. Continue this game by sending it to other people.

1. Do you have secrets?
- Everyone has skeletons in their closets, right? =)

2. Would you fall in love with a boy/girl younger than you?
- Love is blind, so we'll see how it goes.

3. How long do you intend to wait for someone you really love?
- As long as my will is strong & it's worth the wait,

I'll keep on waiting, even If my hair turns grey.

4. What would you do with a billion dollars?
- I'll set up a company under my name, & venture into business.
For every profit gained, and with the balance of the money given,

I'll use it to help charities, and those in need.
I'll improve the conditions of all the Mosques in S'pore,
& build more in future. Cos I believe whatever good comes from God,
& we use His gift, for the good of all mankind.

Not forgetting, I'll bring someone to disneyland. =)

5. Will you fall in love with your best friend?
- I am in love with my best friend, brotherly love wad? Haha.

6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?
- "To love someone, is nothing.
To be loved by someone, is something.
But to love and be loved by someone, is everything."

So my answer is Both.

7. Give one reason why you love your significant other.

- Could you ask me this again when I'm married? Haha.

8. If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?

- I'll definitely feel happy, and will always pray for her happiness.
Other than that, I'll just "Cinta Dalam Hati" sahaja la I guess?

9. What is the first thing you want to do when you're legal?

- Haha. I'm a good boy. So there's nothing else I can do but to feel happy
that I've already grown up.

10. What would you do if your significant other cheats on you?

- I believe Honesty is the Best Policy. and should there be any cheating
in a relationship, there's always a reason why. So I'll listen to her side
of the story. Be there for her, and at the same time work things out.

If she wants to leave, I won't beg her to stay. Cos love doesn't give us
the license to own that particular someone.

11. How would you see yourself in 10 years time?

- I see myself as a Family man, married to a lovely wife with children.
Working hard with a stable career that pays well
to support my family, and our expenses.
Living a simple, and happy life.

12. Who is currently the most important people to you?

- My Family & Friends.

13. How many times your heart has been broken?

- Could an X-ray help? =)

14. Would you rather be single and rich or married but poor?

- Married but poor. I want to go through what all our fathers went through.
Working almost all our lives to support other lives.
It's tough, but is the greatest adventure, of all times. I'm a family man!

15. What is your favourite colour?

- That'll be Blue, & White.

16. If you're attached but you feel as if you like someone else, what would you do?

- I guess this a natural feeling everyone feels. To me, it's good. Cos it's a test
of loyalty, and how strong your love is for your partner. If you really love
your significant other, that like/crush feeling will fade away fast.
Everything will be back on track. If not, you're in deep shit man.

17. Would you forgive and forget no matter how horrible a thing the someone has done?

- Everyone makes mistakes, and it's only right that we Forgive.

But to forget, it's kinda hard. Not all could do it.
Cos we'll tend to think about once in a while.

18. What do you want to tell the someone you like?

- That I'll keep on Chasing you, until I finally get you. =)

19. If there is a choice between lover and friends, which will you choose?

- Both, because they complete me.

20. Do you believe that there's "True Love"?

- Insyallah. =)

5 people to do this survey:- I'll put a stop to this. But whoever wants to do it, feel free. =)

-End-

2008-11-05T23:59:00.007+08:00

As promised,
& as requested,
I'm here to update on Hari Raya 08.
I know it's kinda late to post bout it,
But as they say,
"Better to be late, than never."
Right?
=)

So to make a quick review,
I've always looked forward to raya-ing with,
My best clique ever: P.O.G.
Cos this is the only time we get to raya all around S'pore,
From West to NorthWest to North to NorthEast and to East,
Wearing our traditional outfits, imagine dat!

This year's raya is a bit different.
Even though some couldn't make it,
The show must go on, and we still had lotsa fun.

Not wanting to miss the last train home,
We bid farewell and await for next year's raya again.

So thank you guys for the great day,
& to our Guest for willing to join us.
I'm certainly looking forward to next year's one,
& hope that all of us can make it then.

So that's all for now.

& guess what,
I've already received my Enlistment Letter.
My fate, has been decided.

So where will I be going?
The answer...

To be continued in my next entry.

-End-

Hopeless, head over heels in the moment.
I never thought I'd get hit,
By this Lovebug again.

2008-11-03T23:30:00.005+08:00

Finally, I'm free to talk about "Life" so far.

So, where do I start?
Hmm, let's start from the very beginning.

News No.1
On the 24th of October, roughly about 1 week plus ago,
I went to CMPB at Depot Road, (Central Manpower Base)
For my medical check-up.
As a male, it's compulsory for us to serve the nation,
& before we do, we have to undergo several check-ups,
To update on our health issues.

Actually, I already went for it last year in November.
Usually after your check-up,
The NS letter will come 6-8mths after that.
But since mine has stretched more than the given time,
My check-up last year has "expired" and I gotta go again. Damn.

So I met up with Hasyim and Effy, and off we go.

Since we've been there before, it's like nothing new to us.
The typical check-ups from head to toe.
I thought how bored it was,
Until came another good news.

News No. 2
After checking from head to toe,
It's time to take our height and weight.
And after looking at the results,
I was so shocked to see my weight...
Oh my goodness..

My previous weight, in November 07, was 74kg.

But my current weight, October 08, is 63kg!
I lost weight!
Friends and relatives have been telling me dat lately,
Ever since Ramadhan and filming of BEAT 2, on how slimmer I look.
I didn't actually believe until I saw my official weight.

I planned to lose till 66kg,
But I lost more instead, haha.
Syukur Alhamdulilah.

& this good news became a better news.

News No.3
After going thru all the stations,
It's time to meet-the-doctor session.
Based on your results that day,
The doctor will grade you, From PES A to F.

Since It was my second time,
The doctor had my previous records.
Then came the golden moment.

"Which PES were you graded last year?"
"I was in PES B, Sir."
"Any idea why?"
"The doctor said I was slightly overweight. Yeah."

Then he looked at my current records,
and looked amazed.

"You've lost quite a lot of weight.
And it's in the healthy and suitable zone.
So I'm upgrading your status to PES A."

Nothing could describe how happy I felt that moment.
For all the time I spent running, cycling, exercising,
Weight-lifting, Eating right etc..
For all the times people used to call me chubby and fat,
Has finally paid off today.

Yes, I did it.
I finally did it.
Now I'm operationally fit, for all activities in NS.

The only problem is that,
They stated in the letter should there be any changes in PES status,
The enlistment date will change.
So currently, I'm enlisting on the 6th January 2009.

Perhaps I could go in earlier,
Or worst, later.

But the final letter will be coming in this week,
& I can hardly wait.
Police, Army or Civil Defence?
Only Allah knows. Yeah.

News No.4

I recalled my 1st ever handphone back in Sec 4,
It was Nokia.
Maybe it's just me, but I've always felt,
That Nokia is the best handphone brand.
I really missed using that brand,

& have been wanting to use it again.
So after using Samsung and Sony Ericsson for years,
I'm back with Nokia again,
This time, it's N-Series.
It's worth your every penny

I guess that's all the good news for now,
But I'm sure there's more to come.

Maybe its just me,
But I feel my life is starting to turn around,
In a good way.
I've yet to post about Hari Raya 2008,
& I'll do it in my next post,
So stay tuned!

Thus...

I've lost all the fats,
& reached my ideal weight.
Now it's time to shape up those muscles, and abs.
I guess it's just time.

Next process: Toning.

-End-

As long as you don't give up,
You will reach your destination,
One way, or another.

2008-11-02T00:00:00.006+08:00

" Saat aku tertawa diatas semua

Saat aku menangisi kesedihanku

Aku ingin engkau selalu ada

Aku ingin engkau aku kenang

Selama aku masih bisa bernafas

Masih sanggup berjalan kukan slalu memujamu

Meski ku tak tahu lagi engkau ada dimana

Dengarkanlah aku kumerindukanmu

Saat aku mencoba merubah segalanya

Saat aku meratapi kekalahanku

Aku ingin engkau selalu ada

Aku ingin engkau aku kenang

Selama aku masih bisa bernafas
Masih sanggup bejalan kukan slalu memujamu
Meski ki tak tahu lagi engkau ada dimana
Dengarkanlah aku,
Kumerindukanmu... "

-End-

Sweet November, is finally here.

2008-10-31T22:00:00.000+08:00

I'll be back with more updates on Raya 08 & Life soon.
Stay tuned!

-End-

2008-10-19T13:45:00.004+08:00

On Tuesday, 14th October 2008.

I was working with my bro, Yazid.
We were crapping the hell out when Hasyim came,
& delivered a news which I'm not sure is good or bad.
"Guys, I've received my NS Letter. Mum called just now."

Finally, the wait is over.

For all the months, weeks, days, hours & seconds,
For all the efforts we took checking our letterbox each day,
For all the nights we chanted "Why am I still here? Why?"
Has finally arrived.

Upon graduation in April,
We've waited about 6 to 7 months for this "holy" letter.
The so-called invitation from the goverment,
To serve the nation, and undergo boys transformation, to Men.

Yes. It's here.
Almost 90% of our friends have already went in.
Except us. I almost thought the goverment has forgotten about our existence.
But they didn't.

Yazid then called his mum to check his letterbox,
& guess what, he too just got his NS Letter that same day.

I felt happy for them.
Cos finally there's something for them to look forward to.
Instead of waiting, and working.
I'm really gonna miss you guys.

So after finishing work at 10pm,
I made my way home one hour later.
Feeling excited as well, I went to my letterbox and peeped,
But it's empty, totally nothing.
Guess it's not my time yet.

But the suprise came when I opened the door.
My whole family was at the dining table.
They were somehow waiting for my arrival.
Mum smiled at me, and gave me something.
It was a paper, in orange.
I thought it was a b'day card, but nah, it can't be.

Then the moment of truth came.
When I saw a logo that totally makes sense.
I smiled and said,

"I guess it's time."

-End-

My time is running out.

2008-10-14T23:59:00.004+08:00

Today is another memorable day.

It's the birthday, of my cousin,
Hafizah Hannah Bte Kamsadi.

The unique thing is that,
Our birthday falls on the same year & month,
But only on different dates.
I was born on the 13th, while she, on the 14th.

So we've been celebrating our birthdays,
Almost together every year without fail. (I think)
So her family organized a mini b'day party, for the both of us.
Not wanting to miss this great event,
I rushed all the way from work,
To join in the celebration.

Check out the pics below.
Enjoy!

The birthday cake.The Birthday girl, Hafizah Hannah.
Celebrating together again this year.Making a wish before blowing the candles.
And we're officially in the 19th club.

I also want to take this opportunity,
To wish Ain Twinnie & Izzaty Ismail,
A Very Happy 18th and 20th Birthday.
Hope you girls had a great b'day,
& I wish you success & happiness.
Cheers!

Now, for the most important part.
I've always believed,
That the best b'day present anyone can ever receive in this world,
Is none other than a B'day Wish from other people.
Cos it's priceless, yet valuable. It lives forever in our hearts.
& I want to thank these people,
For giving me this great gift.

If I had missed any of your names,
Please forgive me cos I can be very forgetful at times, haha.
But thank you guys one again.

Thus,
One year has passed,
& I'm officially 19.
The age where you're neither here, nor there.
But damn, I just realised,
That this is my last year as a teenager!
So I've made a point,
To really cherish all the time I have left,
Before I turn 20.
Talking bout that, I can't believe I'll be 20 next year.
Oh no, I'm getting old!

-End-

Everything happens for a reason.

2008-10-12T12:00:00.010+08:00

Alright.
Looking at this pic, you must be wondering,
What on earth happened to me.
If you think it's all blood, blood ain't brown in colour.
If you think bird shit fell on me, I couldn't be so damn unlucky.
& If you think my hair's grey cos I'm aging,
Man, it couldn't be that fast right? Haha.

Wanna know what really happened?
Scroll down,
& your question will be answered.

------------------------------------

It all started on a bright and sunny Friday afternoon.
As you all know, that's the day where BEAT 2 is officially released.

So our director, Ali Akbar, invited us over to his place,
Cast/Crew, for the Gala Premier cum Hari Raya.
It's an exciting day for all of us,
As we can finally see the results of our efforts and hardwork.

Presenting, the poster of BEAT 2.

BEAT 2 is now officially released. (Finally)
More info of viewing the movie,
Will be updated a.s.a.p.

So back to the story,

Our Director, Ali Akbar,
Giving his reviews/feedback/speech,
& his future plans of his next film. After that, we were served great food, drinks and cakes,
While watching BEAT 2. We had a great time,
Laughing our asses off when we looked at ourselves on TV.
But we really had a great time.
& thanks Nurul Ain, for cleaning our plates.
So here's where it all started.

Ali, Arvind and Aslam told me to bring extra clothes,
Cos they mentioned about playing soccer after that.
So being a guy who loves that sport so much,
I happily did what they asked me to.
Then we made our way down.Then they asked to take off our clothes.
Taking it as a normal routine playing under the void deck,
I hurriedly took it off without questions.
(And I regret doing so, seriously.)
When Ali brought plastic bags from a grocery store,
I thought how nice of him to buy us drinks for the game.
Cos lately the weather in S'pore hasn't been nice to us.
But I start to doubt when he took them out, one by one.

3 packets of eggs and a bottle of soya sauce?
Erm, I wonder which soul takes these as refreshment,
From thirst and hunger. Then they each took an egg,
& made a circle, surrounding me.
That's when the explanation part comes in.

Then Ali Akbar said.

"Happy Advance 19th Birthday,
Ameer Hassaan! "

Here's a present from all of us.
Then they all started throwing the eggs at me.
Basket.
& it all starts to make sense cos Monday is my B'day.
Haha. How could I forget?

Phase 1: The Egg Therapy.

For safety purposes, I covered my eyes.
But it didn't stop the eggs from coming.

As more and more eggs came,
I had to kneel down,
(Mind you, it's very painful.)

I got hit!

I thought it's all over,
But I was wrong.

Phase 2: The "Snow" Treatment.

As I was busy dodging the eggs,
I saw white stuff coming down.
My goodness, it's flour!

I didn't know S'pore snowed!!

"We're even now," says Mayor.
He then cracked an egg on my head.
Eggs + Flour = Something so sticky that's really not good!

& our Assistant Director had to join him. Thanks eh!

Man. What did I do to deserve this? Haha.

Then comes,

Phase 3: It's rainin "Soya."

I thought mixing egg with flour is bad enough,
But they didn't think so.
They felt it needed something more,
Soya Sauce.

Yes, the sauce that our mothers use,
Is now being used on me.

Mayor doing the honours.

& damn, it really stinks! Honestly!

Where are you Supergirl? I need you..

Finally, Shan is defeated.
"You're owned."

But the best part was,
even the mastermind himself wasn't spared.

Tis what happens when your own plan backfires. Haha.

It's Tit for Tat cousin! Haha.

"You bleed just to know you're alive."

Well, it certainly runs in the family. Right cousin?

The Aftermath:

So after they've done what was needed to,
Playtime was over, and it's time to clean up.
Luckily Zique was there, our best bangla worker!

Helping to clean up the mess.

It was definitely a long and exciting day.

But I want to take this time,
To thank all the Crew/Cast of BEAT 2,
For planning and executing this B'day Bash,
Specially for me.

Even though eggs+flour+soya sauce = really tough stains,
But it was definitely a stain worth it.
It's the best b'day present I got this year,
& I'll really rmb it as I walk by the years of my life.

So thank you guys once again.
Cheers!

Credits to the Cast/Crew of BEAT 2.

& to Nurul Ain, for helping me throughout this. (=

Erm guys. Now how am I suppose to go home?

At last,
The wait is finally over.

BeaT 2 will be officially released tomorrow,
During the Gala Premier.

More information on viewing the new movie,
Will be posted by Saturday.
The movie is supposedly to be released on 1st October 2008.
But due to Hari Raya,
It's being postponed to the 10th instead.

I definitely can't wait to watch the entire movie,
Especially the Special features,
Behind-the-scenes,
Bloopers, (WAJIB)
& the Alternate ending,
Made specially by Ali Akbar and his crew.

But most important,
I'm looking forward to meeting the cast/crew.
It's been a long time, and I miss you guys.

& I can't wait for tomorrow;
The Reunion.

-End-

Giving up doesn't mean you're weak.
It means you're strong enough to let go.

2008-10-01T00:00:00.007+08:00

"Allahu Akbar,
Allahu Akbar,
Allahu Akbar.
Allahu Akbar,
Walillah Ilham.."

The sound of takbir,
Is trully magnificent, & meaningful.
It serves as a reminder,
That after one month of sacrifice and beribadah,
It has finally come to an end.
It's time to celebrate, our Victory.

Indeed it's the greatest victory ever.
31 days of fasting,
31 days of beribadah,
31 nights in the mosque performing the Terawih Prayers,
& 31 days of a valuable experience,
That brings us closer to Allah.

Alhamdulilah,
We've come this far, as winners.

As we welcome the month of Syawal,
It serves as a reminder,
That we have lived one more year.
We should be thankful, to be able for doing so.
Coz we might never know wheter we'll be able,
To live and witness next year's like how we're now.

So treat this as your last,
& ensure you have the done the most of it,
While you still can.

Celebrating Hari Raya,
Is like us being reborn again into the world.
It's as though we're as fresh as a newborn baby.
A totally new life, with new chapters.
Use the past as a guidance,
Learn from it,
& make our future a better one.
We've made a lot of mistakes in life,
But what's life without mistakes right?
& it only shows that nobody is perfect.

Ramadhan this year,
Has again been very memorable.
It has taught valuable experiences and lessons.
& even though it's Syawal now,
I will always miss Ramadhan,
I'll never forget what I've learned so far.
I'll always remember.

So to all my muslim friends,
I, Ameer Hassaan,
Would like to wish you,

SELAMAT HARI RAYA,
MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN.

Sebagai mahluk Allah,
Saya tidak terlepas daripada membuat kesalahan,
Dan ia adalah kelemahan saya sebagai manusia.
Harap diampun segala dosa-dosa,
Dan Halalkan makan-minum saya.
Amin.

Cheers!

-End-

I'll always remember,
As I walk away.
This memory will last,
For eternity.

2008-09-27T14:00:00.003+08:00

I've changed things, Forever.
There's no going back.

They say that the truth always hurts.
But it's better to know the reality,
Rather than to kept in the dark.

That's what I've discovered today.

Learning about the truth, is one thing.
Understanding it, is another.
But accepting it,
Depends entirely on the individual.
Wheter he/she is strong enough to handle it,
Only God knows.
Coz everyone is different in their own ways.

My 18 years of experiences,
Is now being challenged,
By a brand new one.
A situation that I've heard of,
But've never been in before.

I'm not sure wheter I'm capable,
Of how to anticipate this.
I'm not sure wheter I can even handle this.
A responsibility that not many would carry,
which only a few would.

But I believe that in Life,
Everything happens for a reason.
Perhaps there's a reason why God,
Sent me into this situation.

So I've decided.

I'll endure.
And make the choice that noone else would make.
That is, the "Right Choice."
I could be that outcast,
Because I can take it.

So pray for me,
As I venture into this.

-End-

But my dreams they aren't as empty
As my conscious seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

2008-09-26T23:30:00.000+08:00

Finally,
It's here, it's finally here.
The moment that we've all been waiting for.

Check out below:

BEAT 2
(Official Trailer)

& Enjoy!

I won't elaborate much of what's the story is all about.
But all I've got to say is one word.
"Impressive."
So let's wait until the full film is out,
Which will fall on the first day of Hari Raya,
Wednesday, 1st October, 2008.

Hope the suspense won't kill us!

-End-

Just when I thought it'll turn out beautifully,
There's a twist in the story,
That might now affect,
Almost EVERYTHING.

2008-09-20T23:59:00.002+08:00

Sometimes,
Allah breaks our heart, to make us whole.

Sometimes,
Allah sends us pain, so we can be stronger.

Sometimes,

Allah sends us failure, so we can be humble.

Sometimes,
Allah sends us illness, so that we can take better care,

Of ourselves.

Sometimes,
Allah takes everything away from us,
So we can learn the "value" of everything.

Allah gave Us, Alhamdulilah.
Syukur for all that He has,
& would be giving, Insyallah.

May Allah bless you.
Selamat Menunaikan Ibadah Puasa.

-End-

Sesungguhnya,
Semuanya datang dari Allah S.W.T,
Dan ada sebabnya yang tertentu.

2008-09-19T23:45:00.002+08:00

Finally,

My internet's back. Now I can blog almost everyday.

Time Check.
It's 19th September, Friday, 11:45pm.

My, how fast time flies.
I just realised that it's been a week since I last posted.
So fast, that it's the last 11 days of Ramadhan.
Imagine, after this, Ramadhan will leave,
& we'll have to wait 1 more year until the next one comes.
It's sad, because this might be our last Ramadhan.

Anyway let's get back to life.

So after going through a hell of a busy schedule,
I'm finally back as Ameer Hassaan.
Your simple boy next door. (=

The character "Shan",

Now just lives as a memory I'll always remember.
I'll miss being "Shan."
I miss being called by that name.
Somehow it's short,simple & unique.
No wonder cousin likes that name. Haha.

So apart from my acting life,
I'm back to being a Shoe Promoter at 9 West.
Yeah..
Eventhough it's boring, it does bring good money.
But I doubt I'll last there.
Perhaps after Raya, I'll look for a new job.
This time with a better pay and environment.

Raya is around the corner,
And I'll bet all the muslims out there will be busy.
Busy cleaning their houses,
Baking cakes,
Buying clothes,
Putting on new curtains,
and many many more.
Haha.

I'm really excited, I don't know why.
Maybe it's just the adrenaline rush.
But I know, this year's Raya will be a very meaningful,
& joyful one.

Because it's the start of something new.
It marks the end of our old and sinful life,
And welcomes the new life,

That's as fresh and clean as a newborn baby.

As humans, we never fail to make mistakes.
And in my life, I guess I've made too many mistakes,
& had too much regrets.
But as time goes by,
I've learnt, and grown into a better, and mature individual.

Hopefully,
Life will be much better in times to come.
I'll always pray for it.
Insyallah..

-End-

Perhaps God wants us to meet a few wrong people first,
Before he finally let us meet,
The right one.

2008-09-11T00:00:00.005+08:00

BeaT 2
pictures are out!
More updates will be coming soon.
Stay tuned!

"Vind & Shan, before the fight scene at haji lane."

-End-

2008-09-08T00:00:00.000+08:00

Finally,
It's all over and done with.
As soon as Director Ali Akbar mentioned the word "Cut,"
We all cheered, and had a deep sigh of relief.

BeaT 2, is officially over.
After months of preparation and planning,
After almost 6 straight days filming,
That requires pure commitment, discipline and hardwork,
After almost spending more than 8 hours each day,
Be it rain or shine,
Day or night,
All of our efforts have finally PAID OFF.

All the scenes have been shot, and taken perfectly.
Even though things doesn't go as planned,
Due to unforseen circumstances,
Still we managed to overcome it,
and completed the film.

So to all the people involved in this film,
I, Ameer Hassaan,
Would like to say it's my greatest pleasure, & honour,
To be able to work with all of you.
We've really bonded as a team,
& I'm sure this is just the beginning of our friendship.
May this be the start of something new,
& I hope to work with you guys again,
In the near future.

THANK YOU once again.

So what have I learnt during the shooting of BeaT 2?
Is that,
1) Everything in life happens for a reason.
2) Don't shy lar! (Cast/Crew inside joke.)

But what I've really learnt,
Is that filming is not as easy as we see on the glass of our tv.
It's actually the effort and hardwork of a team,
That works and plays hard to make a beautiful film.
In life, nothing comes for free. That's for sure.

Thus, BeaT 2 has taught me a lot.
And I will remember these lessons as I continue in life,
and put it in good use.

So once,
To all the Cast/Crew of BeaT 2,
Here's to all of you.

CHEERS!

Every film needs a crew and casts,

Hello there people.
Sorry for Missing-In-Action for a while.
I'm finally back with some updates on life.

So on the last week of August,
I was busy preparing for my involvement in the upcoming film,
BeaT 2.
So there were lotsa things to do during the pre-production stage.
There were Music Rehearsal, Script Rehearsal & Costume Shopping.
Although these rehearsals were very demanding and hectic,
But hey, it was worth it after all.
"Because you get to stretch your limits,
& discover new boundaries of yourself.."
And as an Actor, that's very important for me.
Not forgetting,
Credit goes to casts/crew who made the day a blast,
& a very memorable one.

So thank you guys once again.

Anyway,
Check out the pictures below taken during the Script Rehearsal.
Pictures courtesy of Nurul Ain. (Assistant Director)
Enjoy!

Presenting, Ali Akbar's Production.
Everyone concentrating except Jeremy, haha.
Presenting the leading actress of Beat 2, Serene Yap as Evelyn.
& the Hero of Beat 2, myself, Ameer Hassaan as "Shan."
Taking instructions from the man himself.Me & Serene trying out the first scene without our scripts.From the left: Zique and Jeremy.
Zique is one of the casts for Beat 2,
& not forgetting Jeremy, our Fight Choreographer,
and Calefare!Arvind and Ali showing how the scene is being done.Me & Serene then tried it out.A very hardworking Zique, memorising his lines.
Keep it up!Once again, learning the ropes from the man himself."It runs in the family," one of Ali Akbar's famous lines.Daris and Jeremy taking photos of themselves.Getting ready for the next scene.When acting, you'll tend to laugh once in a while."Show more expressions guys!" Ali, making sure that Serene makes no mistake.Rehearsing the "Esplanade Rooftop" scene.Serene!One of the so-called "Mafia meetings scene."
From left: Ali, Zique, Lohes & myself.Cast and Crew chilling out.The guys getting into character.One of the gang's Big Boss, Lohes,
& his man, Philson.A tired "Shan."Serene and our director having some fun.Zique trying to learn more about his character.
Somehow Zique reminds me of Heath Ledger,
as Joker in The Dark Knight.Me & Serene memorising our lines.Learning some fight moves from the Fight Choreographer.Lying down to get the real feeling of the actual scene.Lohes saying his "last words."The "twist" in the story."Shan" being held captive.Me & Serene trying out the most emo part of the film. A slight glimpse of the ending of Beat 2.

So I hope you guys enjoy the pictures,
& get an idea of how BeaT 2 is going to be like.

Being able to reprise my role as Shan again,
Is a great honour and learning experience for me.
Having some experiences from the previous film, BeaT,
I hope it'll help to build my confidence and also my character,
In the next upcoming sequel.

Finally,
I've done my part as a Music Director.
I've composed two songs, which met the Director's expectations,
and which he said, "Definitely one of the best piece I've heard."
Haha. So the titles of the two songs are:
"Serenity" and "I'll be waiting."
These two songs will appear on the film itself,
and one of them will be the Official Movie Soundtrack. (OST)

With a great cast and crew team,
I believe, that BeaT 2 will be a much better and improved film.
With twists, and a much darker tone,
Beat 2 will be one of the best films I'll ever be in.

So filming will commence on the 1st to 6th of September.
As it clashes with the fasting month of Ramadhan,
It will serve as another challenge for me.
But Insyallah, everything will be fine, and go as planned.

Like what David Beckham said,
"You will go through tough times.
But it's about coming through that."

So to all the muslims out there,
Selamat Menunaikan Ibadah Puasa,
& have a blessed and enjoyable month.

-End-

It's not who you are underneath.
It's what you do that defines you.

2008-08-29T23:00:00.001+08:00

Tell me what else can I do
Tell me what else can I say
The closer that I get to you
The further you push me away
Till I don't know where to go
And I don't know why I stayed
Do you even care
Or am I some little games you play

Are you ever gonna feel me
The way that I feel for you
I'll never know how you'd think
Cause I can't read your mind
Do I just keep waiting, or am I just wasting time
But are you ever gonna need me
Like I need you

& are you ever gonna want me
The way I want you to?

-End-

Lost in a simple game,
Cat and mouse are we the same?

2008-08-21T09:16:00.004+08:00

"It's official."

After almost a year of absence,
All the rumours and speculations have been cleared.
Cousin/Director Ali Akhbar has confirmed,
That he's making a sequel to his previous short story; BeaT.

After receiving good reviews and feedbacks,
He is motivated and inspired to make a new movie.

Few months ago,
He approached me, and asked,
If I'm interested to reprise my role as Shan,
In the new upcoming sequel.
Without much hesitation, I told him 2 words.
"I'm in."

With new faces,
Be it crew or casts,
This will be one of the best movies we'll be involved in.
Ever.

The storyline is fantastic.
There'll be some romance,
& not forgetting,
The fight scenes.

This time,
It's way way better.

So I'm really looking forward to this project.
Shooting commences on 1st September 2008,
(Man, Isn't that the first day of Fasting?)
and ends on the 6th.

The movie trailer will be out sometime after Hari Raya.
So don't forget to check it out!

Previously,
I was just a cast in the movie, BeaT.
But this time,
I'm both a cast and crew.
I will be the Music Director/Actor for this new movie.
This is a new challenge for me,
But I hope I can take up this task.

I'm definitely excited and anxious, for this new movie.
So wish me all the best, coz I really need it.

Coming Soon,

BeaT 2:
HeartBeaT

-End-

To be more than a name,
Or a face in the crowd.
I know, that this is the time,
This is the time of my life...

2008-08-20T21:21:00.005+08:00

Today,
After a long long time,
I got to meet one of my close buddy/brother.
He's none other than;
Mr. B, also known as Aizat.

One thing that we both shared in common,
Is Physical Fitness.
& lately we've been so engrossed in this video on Youtube.

Remember the movie "300"?
Yes. The movie that shows men with muscular and 8 gorgeous abs.
And I believe any man who sees them would want to have a body,
Just like them. And good news,
They showed trainings on how to achieve that dream body.

So we met up,
Did some warm-ups,
And the training 300, begun.

Here's what we did.

1) Jump Squats - 30 reps.
2) Staggered Push-ups - 30 reps.

3) Split Jump - 30 reps.
4) Explosive Push-ups - 30 reps.
5) Prison Squat - 30 reps.
6) Hindu Push-ups - 30 reps.
7) Band Row - 30 reps.
8) Pull-ups - 30 reps.
9) Burpees - 30 reps.
10) Double crunch - 30 reps.

Do all these exercises in any order,
And it'll sum up to a total of 300 repetitions.
Include this in your work-out routines,
And you'll get this body in 16weeks.
Insyallah..

*Warning
(Your first attempt might be unsuccessful,
& you might vomit.)

So after completing all of our routines,
We headed to the fitness corner to chill.
I was walking around when I saw a sign,
That demonstrated a move.
& coincidently, Aizat was also doing the same move.

So I managed to capture this totally beautiful shot.
Check it out.

I guess it's not that hard to illustrate Aizat after all.

Mr Aizat,& me, after a tough and rough training.

I guess it was worth every drop of sweat,
& every minute of pain we faced during our training today.
We'll never know our limits until we really push ourselves.
& I know I can do more.
Like they always say,
"No Pain, No Gain."

Sometimes I'd wonder,
What if I could be more than just a man?
(=

Hmm..

-End-

You will go through tough times.
It's about coming through that.

2008-08-17T23:19:00.003+08:00

I don't know if it is just me.

But I'm starting to have "fear" in men.

This "fear" developed eversince I started working at Nine West.
It has always been my nature,
To smile at others, wheter I know them or not.
Because I believe smiling is a basic form of courtesy.
But little did I realise that this might be leading elsewhere.

It all happened at work.
Whenever I have to answer nature's call,
I have to walk past the perfume, & make-up section,
In order to reach the loo.
So on my way there,
I'll smile at anyone I'd see.

So I was walking,
When I saw this perfume promoter. (a guy)
Being nice, I smiled at him.
& he smiled back.

Usually a smile will last for a few seconds.
But,
his smile lasted more,
& there was something creepy about it.
Not wanting to be paranoid,
I just continued my way.

I thought it was just normal.
But it happened everytime.
& I repeat, EVERYTIME.

Not just that one guy,
But almost all of them.
Damn!

So I told my seniors about it.

& to my horror,
They told me this.

"They may look like men.
But they're not exactly 'real' men."

Shivers went down my spine.
And I understand what they meant by not 'real.'
& from that day onwards,
I tried to be more careful.

But on one unfaithful night,
I was on my home from work.
Reaching Jurong East,
I swapped trains to head back to Yew Tee.
So the train was less crowded,
& I happily took a seat.

Then a man came in,
and sat right in front of me.
The train moved,
I was enjoying the music on my mp4,
While smsing at the same time.
After a while, I decided to look up.

In a split second,
The man turned his head away.
At first I didn't cared much.
& continued smsing.

Then the creepy pattern comes in.

Whenever I'd look down,
He'll look at me.
And whenever I look up,
He'll look away.

To me, it's just normal.
But somehow the way he looked at me,
Was more than that.
He was looking from top to bottom,
& smiling at the same time.

Worst,
He dropped off at Yew Tee too!

And while we're on the escalator,
He was a few steps in front of me.
And he'll repeat the pattern of looking at me,
Every 10 seconds, with that "freak" smile.

He is so lucky that I was in a good mood that night.
If not I would have given him a nice beating.

Sometimes when I look at the men nowadays,
I start to wonder.
Where have all the real men gone to?
Why are all the men so so.. (you know I know.)

I'm just glad that I'm not one of them.
Mum said that maybe I attracted them.
Hell no,
God, pls save them!

-End-

The world is losing real men.
That's why all the women are so career-minded.

2008-08-12T13:20:00.003+08:00

After all this time,
After all this while,
Finally, the moment is here.

This is the day,
That I've been looking forward to, all my life.

& after today ends, doesn't mean it's over.
Coz it has just begun.

For it is the start,
Of something new.

-End-

One man's loss,
Is another man's treasure.
I have lost and fall down before,
But now I'm starting to win it all back again.

This is the moment.

2008-08-08T23:23:00.005+08:00

The other day at work,
I was serving a female customer.
She was in her late 30's, but attractive.
She's mixed, probably eurasian.
From the moment she came,
She kept looking at me, at one kind,
Wheter I was standing or walking.
Those sharp looks made me feel so guilty.
So after getting her shoes, she stood up,
Looked at me, and said.
"I think this job is not suitable for you."
I really felt demoralised at that moment until..
"With your looks, you should be an Actor. A Star."
Then from zero I felt like a hero.

"Just don't forget me when you're famous."
She laughed, and walked away.

I just smiled and nod.
& said to myself,

"Someday..."

-End-

How do you know that the person is the one for you?
Truth is you'll never know.
For love is an illusion, and it'll make us believe,
That every person we meet is the one.
The only way to know,
Is how you really feel deep inside,
& who your heart goes out to at the end of the day.

I'M BACK...

It surely feels great and weird to be back.
Great because I miss blogging,
Weird because it's been ages since I posted my last entry.
But nevertheless,
It surely feels good to be back.

During my absence,
Practically a lot of things happened in my life.
But alhamdulillah,
It's more good than bad this time.

So to cut things short,
Here's the main things,
Tthat happened when I was away.

1) I got my first paycheck from Toys "R' Us.
2) I bought my first crumpler bag. (woohoo!)
3) I cut my hair.
4) & I got a new job!

Yes, perhaps No.4 is the best news of all.

So you guys are probably wondering,
What's my new job?
So let me give a few hints.

It's somewhere at town,
At a ladies department.
& attire is black and formal.

Still can't make a guess? Haha.

If you think I'm selling make ups and perfumes,
You're definitely wrong. Definitely!

Thanks to my brother, Sher Yazid,
I'm now a Promoter for the ladies' shoe brand,
Nine West.

Yeah.

I'm selling ladies' shoes.
Brands like:
Nine West,
Steve Madden,
Anne Klein,
Jessica Simpson,
J.Lo
& so much more.

Not only the job pays well,
But it's working hours are very flexible,
& the colleagues are extremely great.
But you know what's the best thing about this job?

As I'm selling ladies' shoes,
Almost 99% of the customers are females.
(1% are those who look like women but in fact they're not)
So it means every working day,
Is like catching a glimpse of heaven. Haha.
It's like seeing angels, that are so beautiful.

So Big Sis managed to snap a few pics of me before I headed to work.
Check it out.

So how do I look? (=

Overall,
I'm very satisfied with my new job.
I couldn't ask for more.
So thank you Sher Yazid, for everything.

So if you're interested in getting any shoes,
Feel free to drop by, and check them out.
We're having National Day promotions,
& currently there's 50% discounts.

So wad you waiting for? (=

So far, life has been alright for me.
There were some tough and rough moments.
At times I feel like giving up,
& felt that the whole world has turned it's back on me.

But hey,

"Why do we fall?
So that we can learn how to pick ourselves up."

I guess that's all I have to say for now.
I'll be back with more updates soon.

Hope you all had a great day.

-End-

A strong bonding doesn't need daily conversations
Doesn't always need togetherness
As long as love lives in the heart
We're never apart

2008-07-16T23:59:00.001+08:00

Life,
Is somehow similar to the waves of the sea.

At times when it's good,
It's calm, breezy, & peaceful.
But when the rough times comes,
It's all rocky, and bumpy.

But I guess that's life.
Where everyday is a new day,
Full of new things.

Currently, my life is all without fun.

It's been nothing but work, work and more work.
I feel like I'm a workaholic already.
And it's not a good thing.

I really miss school,
Miss the great times wif P.O.G.
If I had the power,
I would turn back time,
and keep on replaying the same moments,
Over and over again.
Like PE lessons, BBQ, Bintan, Kota Tinggi trip and esp Chalet!
Coz those were the best years of my life,
& a walk I'll always remember.

But now, It's all different.
Guess the past is something I'll just think of and smile.
Wonder how my friends are doing now.
All 13 of us,
Now heading our seperate ways.

I really need a break. Badly.
I feel like running away as far as I can,
Maybe to the beach or something,
To actually just sit down, and relax.

Coz all I ever need now,
Is a moment of freedom, and silence.
Where I can find peace.

I hope that time will come very soon.
For now,
I'll be strong, and endure.
I hope I'll make it through.

I guess it's time somebody save my life.
Where are you Supergirl?
(=

-End-

It's not found in a book,
or even in a movie.
If you open your eyes and open your arms,
You will find me in front of you.
Love is bliss, and what makes it even better,
is that true love ends with a life long friendship..

Until next time..

-End-

A name makes no matter to me.
As long as I can call you my own.

2008-07-11T20:57:00.002+08:00

From the very start,
From the very first moment I laid my eyes on,
I knew there was something special.
& even though people talked and commented,
I didn't care a single word they said.
For I believe,
It was a risk worth taking.

Although things were rocky in the beginning,
& weren't always favourable,
We didn't give up. We persevered.
For we knew we had each other to count on.

As time starts to pass,
You've grown to be a part of me.
You were always there,
Be it the good or the bad times.
You've made me realised that I wasn't alone.
You gave me a sense of hope,
& the determination to move on.

You're like my strength,
& my motivator.

Sometimes I felt like giving up,
& letting go.
Especially when I felt so down,
& miserable.
But somehow,
The thought of you changed my mind.

I've never been this far before in life,
And this is the biggest breakthrough I've had.

After months went,
People started taking back their words.
They've always though we wouldn't make it this far,
But we've proved them wrong,
& finally they complimented that we're compatible.
I'll never forget that precious moment.

But in life,
"Nothing lasts forever."
& lately,
I've been thinking a lot.

After doing some soul-searching,
After going through days of sleepless nights,
I've made a decision that I believe it's for the best.
& even though it hurts,
I sadly say, I'm letting you go.

It wasn't an easy decision.
But I had to do it.

I'll always remember the good times we had.
& the photos we took,
Will serve as a great memory.

Even though you'll be leaving,
I believe that someday you'll be back again.
But for now it's time for a fresh start,
With a new life.

So goodbye to you,
My long and wavy hair.
& I'll always miss you.

It's time for a change.
Time for a new hairstyle.
Something spikey, something metro.
Perhaps with some color in it.
It's time to let that hair up again.

-End-

2008-07-09T22:35:00.004+08:00

I'M BACK!!!

Like finally.

But firstly, I would like to apologise,
For going "Missing-In-Action" for quite some time.
& especially to those whom I've made them feel worried.

Reason being, is Work, Work, & more Work.

It's all about work.
But fortunately,
It's all over and done with.

Yes,
My 1 month contract with Toys "R" Us,
Is officially over.

But I'm going to miss working there,
Especially at Vivocity.

Along my journey,
I've met many great people, from different & various backgrounds.
People from all walks of life, & culture.

I still remember the first time I went for interview at Suntec,
With Fizzy and Rico.
The great times we had laughing like hell,
& the bad/stressful times we faced,
Like counting a box with more than 200 items,
& travelling to Tampines Mall.

The best part was,
The whole job was like an adventure.
Like a journey.
Where 12 people come together as one, forming a team,
and travel to all the 7 outlets in Singapore,
To check and repack the toy items.

It's like a journey to the west,
Or maybe travelling around the world in 88 days.
A bit exaggerating, but it's almost there.
Almost..

So here's a big shoutout to all the great people I've met,
Along my journey in Toys "R" Us.

-Fidza

-Jan
-Razak

-Alex

-Wan
- Faizal
- Nurazmi
- Nasri
- Gabriel
- Rico
- Melvin
& Fizzy.

Not forgetting all the managers, supervisors, & staff,
From all the various outlets that we've met.
You guys are awesome,
And it's been a pleasure, & honour,
Working with all of you.

So Thank You once again.

---------------------------------------------------

Now that Toys "R" Us is done,
Many are asking me,
So what is Ameer Hassaan's next move?

& that is a totally good question.
Coz for now, I don't have an answer for that yet.

I'm still waiting for my enlistment letter to arrive.
I don't know when it'll come,
Or how long it'll take.
But all I know is that while in the midst of waiting,
I'll enjoy life to the fullest.

Definitely.

So,

The managers at Vivocity has offered me a staff job.
It offers a gd pay, with flexible working hours.
Great and hyperactive staffs too.
Should I accept it?
Or should I head to other outlets?
(=

I guess I'll take a break for now.
Maybe for a week,
Before I make any decision.

But the greatest news is that,
I'm getting my paycheck next week.
& according to my calculations,
It might be a 4 digit amount.
Haha.

Wait,
I think I know what to do next.
SHOPPING!
It's time to update my wardrobe.

So I guess that's all I have for now.
I'll be back with more updates soon.

Cheers!

Everyone wants happiness,
no one wants pain,
but you can't make a rainbow,
without a little rain...

Hafidah's B'day

2008-07-07T00:00:00.002+08:00

Happy 23rd Birthday, Hafidah.
May you find what you seek in life,
& may you be happy, always.

Don't forget to invite me to your wedding ok?

2008-07-01T23:59:00.005+08:00

Tapi Bukan Aku

Jangan lagi kau sesali keputusanku,
Ku tak ingin kau semakin kan terluka

Tak ingin ku paksakan cinta ini,

Meski tiada sanggup untuk kau terima

Aku memang manusia sering berdosa,

Khianati rasa demi keinginan semu

Lebih baik jangan mencintai aku dan semua hatiku

Karena tak kan pernah kan kau temui, cinta sejati

Chorus:

Berakhirlah sudah semua kisah ini,

Dan jangan kau tangisi lagi

Sekalipun aku tak kan pernah mencuba kembali padamu

Sejuta kata maaf terasa kan percuma,

Sebab rasa ku telah mati untuk menyadarinya

Bridge:
S’moga saja kan kau dapati

Hati yang tulus mencintaimu, tapi bukan aku..

-End-

When I said that you'll be happier,
It's definitely true.
I meant every word I said,
and it's all for you.
To let you meet your one true love,
I have to first sacrifice mine.
& let you go wholeheartedly...
Coz I'm just a stepping stone,
That brings you closer to the one.
It's sad but at the same time it's true.
For I'm just a lucky charm...

2008-06-29T19:00:00.006+08:00

Hey people, I'm back.
With more news and updates.
Time surely flies very fast.
And lately, there's so many events that happened,
So many that I don't have time to update,
Practically due to work.

But nevertheless yesterday,
On Sunday, 29th June 2008,
My cousin, Zolhelmie, whose a trainee pilot, got married,
To a beautiful bride, Nur Aini.

The wedding took place in Bishan, & Toa Payoh CC.
It was a very long day, coz we had to be there as early as 8am!
For the akad nikah, & followed by the wedding reception.
Everything happened in a day.
Though it's tiring, it was worth it,
for it was a memorable event.

So check out the pics below.
Enjoy!

The lovely Nur Adriana Nadira.
Making their way.The Kompang Team.Superman & Superboy becoming bearers for the day.With the groom's parents. With the uncles.& the aunties.The girls.& the boys.Bestman observing the ceremony: Cos he's turn is next..

So when will your turn be?
(=

And if you ever get to hear their love story,
It's really very touching.

Here's how it goes:
They met each other in primary school,
But lost contact eversince.
& after all these years,
They finally met each other again.
After contacting and going out for few years,
They decided to settle down, & get married.
& yesterday was the day.

Guess if you're fated to be with that someone,
You will be with that person.
No matter how far distance may seperate you two,
& no matter what the obstacles may be.
For God has planned it all,
In his book.

That's why they say,
"Jodoh itu adalah di tangan tuhan."

So I'll wish them a blissful marriage,
& all the best in their new life.
All the best to Zolhelmie for your training in Perth,
I hope to see you as a Pilot soon!
& all the best to Nur Aini,
In pursuing your PHD overseas.

May you live happily ever after.

-----------------------------------------------------

So what's up in my life lately?

June is finally coming to an end.
& my 1 month contract with Toys "R" Us is over.
What's going to happen next in July?
I'm not so sure myself.

I might be carrying on as a staff in one of their outlets,
Or I might find another job.
Or I can decide to take a break,
and rot at home.

But whatever's going to happen,
I'll surrender it to God the Almighty.
For he knows what's best for me,
& has planned it all.

That's all I have for today,
Hopefully I'll be back with more updates,
Now that I have all the time in the world.

Wish you people a great day.

Until then..

-End-

A smile is the purest form of expression.
So keep on the spirit of smiling,
For you might never know whose day you're going to make,
With it..

2008-06-22T23:59:00.002+08:00

Therefore,
Forum Toys "R" Us,
Is finally completed.

We successfully achieved our target,
and completed the second largest store in 3 days.
So what's the largest store of all the 7 outlets?

Well, the place is new,
Trendy,
& resides in the southern part of Singapore.

That place will be my next and final store.

Presenting,
Next stop --> Vivocity Toys "R" Us.

I'll be at Vivocity from Monday to Thursday.
After which my contract is over,
& It's time I decide wheter to carry on as a staff,
or not.
If I do, I'll have to decide which store to work at.
If not, I'll have to find other jobs.
Or, I could just slack and rot at home.

But most likely I'll be carrying on as a staff,
and the store I'd most probably head to,
Is Tampines Mall.

So that's all I have for now,
& I will be back with more updates.

Hopefully..

-End-

Love is a noble act of self-giving,
offering trust, faith, and loyalty.
The more you love,
The more you lose a part of yourself,
Yet you don't become less of who you are;
You end up being complete with your loved ones.

2008-06-17T23:59:00.006+08:00

Therefore,

Tampines Mall Toys "R" Us,
Is officially completed.

We targeted to finish it in 3 days,

But miraculously,
We finished it all in 1 and 1/2 days.
& of all the 7 Toys "R" Us outlets,
I love Tampines Mall the most.
1st reason is because of it's small stock,
& the other reason is for the view.
Haha.

Perhaps it's true,
Pretty girls do come from the east. (=

So for every store we completed ahead of time,
We get an off day as a reward.
Alhamdulilah.

So tomorrow, Wednesday,
Will be another off day for me.
& I've never felt so thankful before in such a long time.

Eversince I ventured into this working life,
I'll always reach home late,
Get only 3-4 hours of sleep,
Wake up early for work the next day,
& worst,
I'm deprived of all the good things in life.
Yeah, in other words,
At times I feel like a workaholic.

No time for family,
No time for friends,
No time for P.O.G,
No time for saturday soccer,
No time for neighbours,
No time for my gang,
No time for television,
No time for internet,
No time for playing guitar,
& No time for myself!

No wonder Fizzy & a few quitted.
But I understand.
Now I just hope that Rico will continue till the end.
(I hope you do)

So anyway,
My team leader, Jan,
Offered me a staff job at his outlet in Vivocity,
After all the re-packing is done.
I'm still not sure though,
I have till next week to decide.

So which Toys "R" Us outlet should I work at?
Hmm..

So tomorrow after mahgrib,
There will be Tahlil at Wak's house.
It will be 7 days, since grandfather left us.

I wonder how he's doing up there.
But I'll always pray for him.

I hope that after my re-pack job is finished,
I'll be able to do more things I've been wanting to.
Coz even though working life takes most of my time,
Still my mind is somewhere else.
Thinking of other things.

& one of the things that came to my mind,
Is Love.

That's all I have for now.

Next stop ---> Forum Toys "R" Us.

-End-

I'm finally waking up, a twist in my story

It's time I open up, and let your love right through me

That's what you get

When you see your life in someone else's eyes

That's what you get,

That's what you get..

2008-06-15T23:59:00.004+08:00

Hey people, I'm back.

Today marks the 4th day,
Since arwah grandfather passed away.
Time definitely passed so fast.
At times too fast, that we even noticed it.

So yesterday after work,
Went to my cousin Shafique's crib at Tampines,
For the tahlil, where the families come together,
For a prayer session, for our late grandfather.

Alhamdulilah, it went well,
& we'll be meeting again on Wednesday,
At Wak Latifah's house at Bukit Gombak.

I still find it hard to believe,
That grandfather is gone.
Coz It's been more than 20 years since anyone in our family,
Experienced any loss and death, since arwah Wak Isa.
& It feels like he's still here.
His spirit lingers around us.
As though he's watching from up above.

But every life has it's end,
& one day we all will have to go.
It's only a matter of time.
I'll always remember him,
For the great man he was.
Semoga Allah melindungi,
Dan merahmati rohnya,
Amin.

--------------------------------------------

Anyway,
It's my off day today.
& honestly, I've never appreciated a day like this before,
For a long long time.

Hell yeah.
It's my first official off day,
& I slept till noon.
God, I seriously miss the old days,

Where I was jobless and just rot at home.
But I can't anymore.

& guess where I'm working?
Check out below.

Yeah.
Welcome to the greatest toy department store.
Haha.
But credit goes to my bro Fizzy,
For introducing this job to me.
So thanks bro!

I'm part of the Re-pack team.
My mission is to check and update the stocks,
Of all the Toys R Us outlets in Singapore.
Total, there's 7.
& we're given 3 weeks to finish it.
Sounds easy?
You ought to try.
Imagining opening hundreds of boxes,
& counting the toys one by one.
Results are expected to be accurate and precise.
Any error is totally unacceptable,
& the only solution is to count again.
The worst box I ever opened,
Had 300 hair pins in it.
So how?
Still interested?

So here's the stores we've completed.
Suntec City,
Jurong Point,
Paragon,
& United Square.

4 down,
3 more to go.

So I'll be attached at Tampines Mall tomorrow,
From Monday till Wednesday.
After which is Forum,
And then ViVocity.

So If you happen to be in any of these stores when I'm working,
There's a slight chance you might see me.
& don't hesitate to call me if you do okay?

I'll offer the best customer service ever,
and will make your day.

So that's all I have for now.
Gotta turn in early tonight,
I've got a long way to travel tmr to the east.
(God Bless Me.)

Until then..

-End-

And I know,
You're a part of me.
And It's your song,
That sets me free.
I sing it while,
I feel I can't hold on.
I sing tonight,
Coz it comforts me..

2008-06-12T23:59:00.006+08:00

*This post is dedicated to you.

Thanks for all you've done

I've missed you for so long

I can't believe you're gone...

You still live in me

I feel you in the wind

You guide me constantly..

I've never knew what it was to be alone, no

Cause you were always there for me

You were always there waiting

And i'll come home and I miss your face so

Smiling down on me

I close my eyes to see..

And I know, you're a part of me

And it's your song that sets me free

I sing it while I feel I can't hold on

I sing tonight cause it comforts me...

I carry the things that remind me of you

In loving memory of

The one that was so true..

Your were as kind as you could be

And even though you're gone

You still mean the world to me..

I've never knew what it was to be alone, no

Cause you were always there for me

You were always there waiting

But now I come home and it's not the same, no

It feels empty and alone

I can't believe you're gone..

And I know, you're a part of me

And it's your song that sets me free

I sing it while I feel I can't hold on

I sing tonight cause it comforts me..

I'm glad HE set you free from sorrow

I'll still love you more tomorrow

And you will be here with me still

And what you did you did with feeling

And You always found the meaning

And you always will

And I know, you're a part of me

And it's your song that sets me free

I sing it while I feel I can't hold on

I sing tonight cause it comforts me...

In Loving Memory of,
Jellanie Bin Manaff.
11th April 1928 - 11th June 2008.

May you rest in peace,
Al-Fatihah.

-End-

& I'll remember you,
Always..

2008-06-10T23:30:00.003+08:00

I'm sorry for the late update.
I haven't had the time to do so.
Coz these few days have been the most critical for me.
& time is all that I'm fighting against now.

Lately,
My maternal grandfather, was admitted into the hospital again.
He was doing fine, when suddenly, he had breathing difficulties.
I remember that faithful saturday,
After a match of soccer, I received a call from big sis.
& I'll never forget that one line she said.

"Come back now.
The doctor calls all family members to the hospital immediately."

& that Saturday,
Will be the faithful day I'll never ever forget.

Almost all of our huge family members came down to NUH.
From the busiest member, to the most distant relative.
Even my grandaunt from Kuala Lumpur, came down to Singapore.
Yes, they all did.
& that just shows how much grandfather meant to all of them.

The most saddest part was,
To see all of them crying.
Especially my mother, sisters, aunts, cousins, and even uncles..
Subhanallah.
& seeing all that, makes me feel so weak.
Not knowing how to react.

All of us gathered around his bed,
Praying surah Yasin, to him.
In hope, that If he were to go,
at least he would have gone away,
Being able to hear the holy verses of the Quran,
and able to mengucapkan, "dua kalimah syahadat."

Then one by one, all my aunts and uncles asked for forgiveness.

& that makes everyone in the room feel weaker and cried even more.
Doctor told us that in his state, & condition,
He won't live any longer.
Thus,
He only gives grandfather 1 more day to live.

But miraculously,
With God's will,
Grandfather made it through,
& still survived till today.
Even the doctor himself was amazed, and suprised at the same time.
Perhaps grandfather had a very strong will-power to live.
That is why he's still alive.

As I'm writing this,
It's 30 minutes to midnight.
& I am thankful to Allah,
That grandfather is still here with us.
Nobody knows when he will go,
or wheter he'll make it through with 10% of survival chances.
But death is inevitable,
& someday he has to go,
No matter how strong he is.

So let us all pray for our loved ones.
Cherish them, & love them.
Tell them, & show it to them every single day,
On how much they mean to you.
Coz you might never know,
When they will go away.

So as long as grandfather is still here,
I'll treasure every moment I have with him.
Coz one day I'll wake up one morning,
To know that he's no longer there.
& I don't want to wake up that day with full of regrets.
I want to wake up knowing at least I've tried.

So here's a big thanks to my friends who were there for me:
Fizzy, Yazid, Hasyim, Nurimah, Ain, Mizsafiah, Malia, Fyda,
Lily,
& to those I didn't mention above.
I really appreciate it a lot,
& I'm doing fine.
Thank you once again.

Let's pray for the best.
Coz that's all we can do right now.

Sesungguhnya,

"I look at you

and see a walking miracle.

Your unfailing love without limit,

Your ability to soothe my every hurt,

The way you are on duty, unselfishly,

Every hour, every day,

Makes me so grateful

That I am yours, and you are mine.

With open arms and open heart,

With enduring patience and inner strength,

You gave so much for me,

Sometimes at your own expense.

You are my teacher,

My comforter, my encourager,

Appreciating all, forgiving all.

Sometimes I took you for granted,

But I don’t now, and I never will again.

I know that everything I am today

Relates to you and your loving care.

I gaze in wonder

As I watch you being you— my miracle."

For all the things I didn't say,
About how I felt along the way
For the love you give and the work you've done,
Here's appreciation from your admiring son.

You cared for me as a little tot,
When all I did was cry a lot,
And as I grew your work did too
I ran and fell and got black and blue.

I grew some more and it didn't stop.

Now you had to become a cop

To worry about mistakes I'd make.

You kept me in line for my own sake.

I got older, and the story repeated;
You were always there whenever I needed.

You guided me and wished me the best,

I became wiser and knew I was blessed.

So, for all the times I didn't say,

The love I felt for you each day,

Mum, read this so you can always see

Just how much you mean to me.

Thanks for everything, Mum.
For making the person I am today.

HAPPY 44th BIRTHDAY.

With Love.

-End-

You raised me up,
So I can climb on mountains.
You raised me up,
To walk on stormy seas.
& I am strong,
When I am on your shoulders.
You raised me up,
To more than I can be.

"Sometimes we tend to be in despair,
When the person we love leaves us,
But the truth is, it's not our loss, but theirs,
For they left the only person who wouldn't give up on them.."

- Dedicated to my twin, Ain.

Although they say that the truth always hurts,
It's better for us know it now,
Than to be kept forever in the dark.
As humans, we're vulnerable to make mistakes.
We cannot avoid it, nor can we deny it.
No matter how hard we try to.
It's the truth. Coz that's how we were created to be.

I know the road to recovery is long,
& it's never easy.
But always remember,
It's the bitter and painful events,
That makes us learn and grow,
Into better individuals tomorrow.

Nobody was born to be perfect.
Coz even angels make mistakes sometimes.
With time, all wounds will heal.
Just remember,
That no matter how many bad men there are today,
There's always a few good ones among them.

Never give up on hope,
Coz hope never gives up on you.
Should you ever need anything,
I'm always here for you.

"Girls are like apples on a tree.

The best ones are at the top.

The boys don't want to reach for the good ones,

Coz they're afraid of falling and getting hurt.

Instead, they get the rotten apples.

From the ground that arn't as good, but easy.

So the apples on top thinks,

There's something wrong with them:

When in reality, they're Amazing.

They just have to wait for the right boy to come along,

The one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top.."

-Dedicated to all the lovely girls out there,
Who's waiting for their Mr Right to come.
With time, all will fall into place..

Hey people, I'm back.
Well, guess what,
The weekends are here again.
Perhaps for some people it's a blessing,
But to me, it's the same just like any other days.
Well, this is what happens when you're not skooling,
& have "all the time in the world."

So on Saturday,
I played soccer again at Marsling.
This time, I was really looking forward to it,
Coz "someone" said he was coming,
But as predicted, he didn't.
Due to asthma, he claimed. Haha.
Well, let's wish him a speedy recovery.

& Big thanks to Fizzy and Haikal for joining us,
& Eric, where the hell were you? Haha.

Then on Sunday,
My family visited our grandfather at the hospital.
He's been admitted again,
Due to serious breathing difficulties.
I just pray that he recovers fast.
Before this, he was in the hospital for almost 3 months plus,
When he was finally allowed to go home.
Then now, he has to go back.
Let's all pray for his health okay?

After that,
We had dinner somewhere at the East side.
Check out the pics below.

The Big Sis.

<--Work in progress-->

Credits to the photographer.

This picture was taken in the car when it was bumpy and shaky.
But suprisingly, a word in yellow was formed.
Could it be fate? (=

Thus, that's how my weekends were.

Most probably I'm going to start work next week.
For the whole month of June.
So I've got 1 more week of freedom left.
& I'm gonna enjoy it while I still can.

I hope you guys had a great weekend too.
I'll be back with more news and updates.

P.S I had a bad hair day.
Should I cut or keep my hair long?

-End-

So impossible as it may seem
But you've got to fight for every dream
Coz who's to know, which one you let go,
Would have made you complete..

A Star Is Born

With over a lead,
Of more than 12 Million Votes,
& the biggest finale ever in history,
America has finally chosen their new American Idol 2008.

Just like how Paula Abdul has predicted,
& just like how we've always pictured it,
The winner is none other,
Than David Cook.

Perhaps we've known who's the winner is gonna be after all.
With his complete package, talent, and unique factor,
I'm sure he'll make it big,
& go pretty far.

Let us all support him,
& wish him the best in his career,
& future.

I guess dreams do come true in our lives.
People say that it's impossible to build sandcastles in the air,
But they're wrong.
Coz If you can manage to build it's foundation,
Then everything will now seem possible.

"And as you dream,
So shall you become.."

So dream big,
& chase after your dreams.
Coz who knows,
You might just get there one day.

You just might.. (=

They laughed at Neil Armstrong,
When he say he's going to the moon.
Now he's up there,
Laughing at them..

The day was spent on shopping, shopping, & more shopping.

Find arms that will hold you at your weakest,
Eyes that will see you at your ugliest,
Lips that will kiss you in both instances,
and a heart that will love you at your worst.
Only then will you have found your true love..

It's saturday.
& it started off well with a great morning activity.
"Soccer."

Damn.
It's been a long long time since I last played.
I couldn't recall when I last kicked a soccer ball.

Oh wait, now I remember.
It was back in school.
But wait, that was months ago! Gulp.

But what made the normal soccer match a meaningful one,
Was that we had several star players wif us.
& one of their presence really shocked me like hell.
For once I couldn't believe he was there.

They are:
Sher Yazid a.k.a Noh Alam Shah

Eric Lee a.k.a Joe Cole
& our guest-of-honour,
Mohd Hafiz Bin Mohd Amin!!

Hahaha.
Damn it was seriously shocking to see Hafiz so early in the morning.
But it's great to see him.
After a long long long long time.
He look as good as ever,
& still has that load of crap with him.

Overall, we had a great match.
Played with Yazid's friends.
It's challenging, and fun.
As usual, Yazid will score the most goals,
Eric will be skillful and relax as ever,
Hafiz will be the best keeper u'll ever find,
& I'll assist in every goal there'll be.

Like David Beckham. Chey!

So, there's a job interview on Tuesday.
I hope I can make it through.
Coz that's the dream place I've always wanted to work at,
Since I was a very small kid.
More details will be revealed soon.
Wish me luck!

It's good to meet you guys again.
Let's hang out sometime okay?
Until then,
That's all for now.

When you’re soaring through the air,
I’ll be your solid ground.
Take every chance you dare,
I’ll still be there when you come back down..

2008-05-12T08:00:00.001+08:00

I couldn't recall when,
The last time I felt this way.
The amount of excitement,
& the feel of adrenaline rush.
The only times I could think of,
Is sometime, but a very long long time ago.
I missed that feeling,
I seriously do.
It's as though I'm back as a 3 year old.
That kid-hyperactive feeling,
Where you feel so happy,
& that the world is totally problem-free.

But now I don't have to try recalling back all those years.
I just have to think about Yesterday..

Where for once,
I felt that it was a dream come true.

So Thank You.
For making a day out of the other 364,
A one that's memorable.
A day I'll always remember,
As my happiest day so far.

Coz for once,
I felt so peaceful & free. That I could actually fly.

Thank you once again.

Forever is not a word...
rather a place where two lovers go
when true love takes them there
