Waking Up and a short Goodbye.

Hello.. after a long hiatus since last year. Nearly a year. I didn't want to start off a new blog .. So, I'll just pick up where I left off.

2010 has really been interestingly challenging in a sweet bitter sour way, though I wouldn't mind all the recent good stuff that has been happening.

last year's story was a lot about AstroBoy, which was very complicated. I hadn't really resolve the situation as dainty as I would like but then again endings are not as romantic and easy realistically.
I've lived quite a fairytale last year... full of drama! sheesh.. lucky for me, that has ended.

I'm not gonna post a long one dis time as I've got another thing in mind. I will be writing my life again..

To AstroBoy a silent goodbye
if you're reading.....

I wish you good luck, happiness.
I forgave you a long time ago.
Live life.
it's just that, I don't want to have you in my life again.
Goodbye.


alright, with that done. I am very proud of myself that I've forgave and moved on and said my goodbyes.

sometimes, some people are not worth keeping, don't you think?


love,
aud.

Appreciating the little things

I've come a long way since january, reaching the end of 2009, I look back at what I've been through, I've still got so much to learn, so much to understand. Overall, it's been a good year. Mentally, physically, emotionally, financially, and spiritually. Yes. It's been great. Well, not that I'm saying it has been 24hrs, 3-6-9 good... but, weighing out the pros and cons and appreciating the good things, yeah.. I can say it's great.

When you don't expect too much out of yourself, and life, Life can be satisfaying and happy. I've learnt that, as humans, we are only able to plan, but life takes its course naturally without abiding to our plans and timing. And so, I am learning to take life as it is. Expectations are natural. But, we shouldn't be kicking our butts, dreading of things we want but fail to get in our life, and in the end, end up being depressed, lifeless, most importantly, unhappy.

To be happy, is each individual right. I think, self-happiness is gained through being content and happy about yourself first, before the factor of other people in your life makes you happy. In a way, (for me at least...) to be happy, nessesity is yourself, others are just supplement to being happy.

I do admit, I'm not the most cheery - happy- almost everyday laughing- kinda person.. At least, I try to be happy, even when my skies are not that bright. I'm still very much single, but does that make me, UNHAPPY? Must I really need a relationship to allow me to be happy? I've been badly hurt by someone.. I embrace the fact that I'm hurt and sad, but must I really make life unhappy and gloomy?

I thank God for his grace and blessings... and for past recent happenings, are just to make me a stronger person. Well, with time and patience, wounds will heal, though it will never be the same, scars will remain as memories and teaching.

When sweet turns into sour

"after every rain, there's sunshine at the end"...

mm.... they've failed to mention, after that awesome, bright, hot sunshine, there could be storm, hurricane, or even worst.

Why does happiness doesn't last forever? Why does fairytales seems just too bloody good to be true? Is it just so damn hard to find that bitter beginning but, sweet ending story? How I wish my life would sometime end like 'Notting hill' or 'sleepless in seattle' or 'when harry meets sally'?

that's why they say "those only happen in movies..." *sigh*

at times like these, I wish I have smart words, or clever phrases to depict my inner thoughts, yet I only have simple boring figure of speech. Yes, I'm no Sydney Shieldon or some marvelous writer. All I have, is me.

Why do people can be thicker than skin? Why does some, can't seem to realize what they've done hurt others, when it's so above surface than skin? shit. what Am i babbling?

Okay, So I've said things that I might or might not regret in the past hour, but should I really regret? hell No. Why not? hmm, I've gone through so much, without "you" knowing.

to you:

if only, we traded shoes, I could see what you see,
I could hear what you heared,
I could feel what you feel,
I could feel your pain.
for once, have you placed yourself in my shoe?
for once, has honesty been with us? to yourself? to me? to the world?
why?
coward-ness?
selfishness?
worthiness?
Yes, First impression lasts, but not for long,
for they say "don't judge a book just by it's freaking title..."
read the whole book, you'd know if the book is just worth keeping.


To you,
I'm sorry if my words tainted your colors,
never I meant, to kill the cat,


I've gave all I have, all my love,
for you throw it all away,
thank you, you've opened my eyes.
to a new brighter world, to a new chapter, to a new book.
Now, I won't just buy a book for it's cover, for it's title,
but for the stories, the book keeps.

A new person,
a new leaf
a new life,
a new year.
2010, I wait for you to come.

screaming lady

I hate when this happens....

My sleeping problems are back! damn.

I don't know why the hell can't I just sleep early and have a good night rest. Now it's getting really terrible. I sleep at 5am and wake up at 11am to go to work. I don't know what is happening to me. mm.... sigh. I need to get myself fix. soon.

another odd thing is, it's been three nights I've been recurring dreams - a woman shouting at me. shit. I'm not the type of person who dreams a lot, but lately, I've been getting a lot of them, at one point, I dreamed about myself at a feast, with lots of food. funny.

here I am at 1.07am, woken by silly dogs yacking in the mid of nite.. terrible.



the one deprived of sleep,

Little words, Big Meaning

It's been long 3 months since my last post. Pass recent months' events has been crazy, whimsical, and a rollercoaster!

It's weird when you think you're missing out on things, when actually it's really how u perceive the situation. So much had happen since the existence of Astroboy in my once gray life. People come and go in life. I believe each encounter has its meaning. Be it a person to change your views, be that person u just hate his guts or ego, a bitch that has a way of getting what she wants, be a friend... be a boyfriend, a husband... and the list goes. I'm still at a point at figuring "what is the meaning of this whole frenzy fiasco meeting?"

*rolling eyes*

It's mentally challenging my desire to stay above the pressure of finding the normality of the situation. A constant inner voice keeps reminding me "stop whatever you're doing".... yet, I still find myself crawling back to the dumpshit over and over again.

It's addicting.

I didn't post anything lately cause I had nothing to write but lousy stories about how lame my life currently is, except that it's a rollercoaster. ironic?



the lucky one,
aud

A Song For You

I know I haven't been writing anything lately. I blame it on procrastination, lost for smart words and ideas, and hi-rising level of laziness. To be fair though, I actually had a saved-needed-to-be edited post before this one. But..... never got the time. (yea.. rite) Oh well, I'm gonna make it up with this post. It's gonna be a good one... promise (pergh.. perasan tahap dewa).


I've always loved singing for as long as I can remember. Sadly, I'm not much of a singer to be honest. Music has played a very big part in my life. Through every chapter of my life, through good and bad, laughter and tears, heartaches and break-ups. I must say, there's always a song for every mood I am in.

To me, every song has its story. Especially when it reminds you of a person. A song can be a place where you keep memories of you and someone. No matter near or far, in hatred or in love, you always have that person in mind when you listen to that "song". It brings back old memories, stories you've shared, jokes you've laughed, moments you wish you could have once again. So, a "SONG" is the place where you get to meet that "someone" again. (well, to me at least)


Recently, a chapter in my life began knowingly which somehow ended without me realizing it. I guess, things just happens in a way I can't understand what God is planning for me. No matter what it is, I'll just take the cruise HE is giving me.

Putting everything together (this is the good part.... hohoho)

I wrote a lil' song, for a person, because of a person.
Hopefully, everytime I listen back to this song, it'll remind me of that person.
this is a sad song to start of with,

to AstroBoy (you know who u r)

A story of dreams,
that wasn't mine to hold, to start.
to a love that had no truth, no existence
to an emotion that had no pride.
because of you.
I wish you love and bid you goodbye
I wrote this song because of you
May I'll see you in this song.
in summer, winter, autumn n spring.


Because of You.
song and lyrics by Audrey

I love the way you look at me
i get so weak on my knees
because
i get butterflies when u r around
i get tingles in my heart now
but its all because of you
because of you

i like to hear you say "i missed you"
i look away so shy my boo
because I get butterflies when u r around
i get tingles in my heart now
but it's all because of you
because of you..

you wrap ur fingers around mine
i want to hold it all the time
because you give me butterflies when u r around
i get tingles in my heart now
but it's all because of you
because of you..

you wonder why
oh why this lullaby plays on and on my love
I've nothing much to say,
then to tell you
it's all because of you

To all, I'm just gonna post the lyrics for now. I don't think I've got the guts to post the song here till I think I couldn't care less what the people think of the song n my singing. The song is nothing great really, but... it's mine. One day perhaps...

Love Factor - Right Person, Wrong Timing.

It's a quiet and warm night. (i miss the rain...)

While my fingers are pinned to the keys of the lappy, I let my brains run wild with ideas to write tonight. Yet, I'm still hopelessly trying to find the right things to write and end up crapping.

Honestly, I don't want this cyberworld I have here to be just a place for me to crap most of the time. (I think the weather is making me go a bit blue tonight).

After a quiet, an alone "me" time dindin, I find myself mulling over things that had happen these past few months.

"why?", "what?", "when?", "how?","who?"

The "WH" questions keeps playing repeatedly in my head like a broken tape player.
Can just someone stop it already?

Then.. I remembered, a conversation I had not long ago with a girlfriend..

"where have all the good guys gone to?"
"They're either taken"
"or... Married".....
(long pause, with a snort, and a "duh!" look)
"or.. GAY"

true? perhaps.

Though my belief in the "Right Guy" or in some other terms and context "The One" exist for every girl may have fade over the years after meeting the bunch of mens I've bumped into, but, I do still believe it exist..(yes girls... you may call me foolish for saying that).

Some people have the privilege to date each other and stay in love for so long and only marry after years of dating since high school. Some were high school sweethearts, dated for so long only to realize they weren't right together and parted ways. Others, only took a year, or just months to know "he/she is THE ONE". In Hollywood, takes minutes to get hitched and only realize 24hrs after they're married, they were actually wrong for each other. (bizarred?)

I'm sure you've been in a situation where you've met this new person, and came to know his/her attitude and personality after sometime, and....before you know it, you've started to have that "itchy likey" feeling towards that person. It started with cute, interesting, naive shorts texts (the fishing game I call it), short phone calls, meeting up for a drink in a group...evolved to texting continuously (smiling while reading and replying those texts), more than 3 times a day phone calls (with small laughs that irritates others), meeting up for dinner and finding every reason to meet.

It leaves you with a gluey, warm, happy feeling doesn't it? (it makes your heart go "aaaahh.. or Mmmm... and awww....)

Then this situation goes to a state where you say, "bummer!"...

He has a taken or attached or married or gay or "it's complicated" status! (bummer!)

This goes back to my earlier WH questions which are still madly playing at the back of my head while I'm writing this.

Why You? Why Now? Why not before this? How could I? What am I feeling? When is it ending? How is it gonna be? Why did I meet you?
Who is Us?
What is Us?

then.. it evolved to my "What If" questions.

I answered, all my questions with...

"it was never mine from the beginning"
"It never was mine to start off, never could be, never will be."

He's the "right guy" because of the person he is. The way we are when we're together. The way our mind thinks (though it may not be alike and we misunderstand each other most of the time). Our differences and imperfections are just right. (probably I could be just exaggerating the whole situation). Our likings are just perfect.

We score A+ in Chemistry.

and yet, wrong timing.

why?

Days In Sandakan

I'm very overwhelmed by the response from my little yet, supportive readers (which I appreciate so much for visiting my blog) on my previous post "10 things about AstroBoy".

It's an exciting feeling to know that there are actually some who reads my blog. Thank you again.
Many has been asking me about "AstroBoy"... "who is he?", "is he real?". I've been told to continue my post on "AstroBoy" again. Well, no promises. That's all. Well, maybe another post or two on AstroBoy? I'll think about it.

As some may know that I am now officially based in Sandakan (Lord knows how long I'll be stuck here). I've been back n forth from KK TO Kl to KK to KL again.. n KK n Sandakan , and honestly, it's a bit tiring I must say.

Not that I don't like to be living with my folks (missing home terribly actually), but, I think being a Capri, I love the freedom and the sense of independance living afar from home. AND, besides, it's thrilling everytime I get the chance to be back in Kota Kinabalu.

Today marks the 3rd month I've been in Sandakan the land of Orang Utan, Proboscis Monkeys, The land of Cheap food,booze and Seafood, the land where people are proud of their Giant Supermarket (I will tell you why in a bit),The land where road lights are scarce and full of shitty drivers around, last but not least, The land where places are called by "Miles" (found it rather bizzarely strange at first , but got the hang of it after a while. FYI, Mile 4 - Mile paling famous ni..)

Let me do a 5 things I like and Don't Like about Sandakan.

5 things I LIKE about Sandakan
1. Cheap Food
2. No traffic Jams
3. Cheap Booze
4. Not a busy and hectic town
5. (yet to be filled)

5 things I DON'T LIKE about Sandakan
1. Less choice of Food (I long for McD and Burger King, crave for Big Apple's Donuts)
2. No Shopping Malls (the VERY reason why do people of sandakan are very proud of the Giant Supermarket)
3. Boring (don't ask me why, wait till you get here)
4. CAR DRIVERS (shitty drivers everywhere, no sense of giving signals.)
5. Slow (drivers are slow, the way they walk are slow, traffic lights are slow, getting the electricity back after a blackout is slow)

There you go. My 5 things - Like and Don't like about Sandakan.

To my fellow Sandakan friends, please do no take any of these personally. Just merely an opinion, which I'm free to have. Right? Who bloody cares anyway.

As days goes by, I'm beginning to settle down and fit in into this little city. Never imagined I have survived my first 3 months in Sandakan. I thought I'd be gone before April. Haha.

To remember this very day, I'll try to write something special.

Days in Sandakan

RM50 on fuel,
2 stops,
a long bumpy 6 hours drive
A sunburnt right arm and an awful backache,
A car packed with stuffs,
Sandakan, here I am!

Long straight pitch dark roads,
Far U-Turns and excessive roundabouts,
Spent RM70, to learn your roads,
Sandakan, why do u have to be so far?

Early dawn, early dusk,
by 9 you're almost dead,
sandakan sandakan...
my heart sighs for Sandakan,
for the day it leaps with joy.
