A morsel

A tiny being begging for food,
The nimble hands outstretched,
The hidden eyes under the hood,
Body shivering with clothes drenched.....

-Haze

I ain't begging to be in the spotlight....unfortunately it happened that Monday...in front of the colossal crowd of teachers , KPs and the big shots...those in the profession decipher the meaning..hmm...I ain't no stellar....it was a bit daunting though...but the big shot acknowledged me onerous work....phewwww......thank Allah for the opportunity that came knocking on the door....hmm...time to let my hair down...heh... watching Ice Age 2 and gonna devour the well deserved ice cream at Swensen...*winks..


Eyes

This whole body shudders,
The mind going berserk,
The pair of legs wanders,
A deserted gloomy place lurks..

-Haze

It was an exhilarating, nail biting and trepidation filled horror re-make of a 1977 horror classic...nine and a half out of 10 on the most fantabulous thriller scale....it scared the living daylights out of me...even the OH was transfixed..heh...a remarkable panacea to end Saturday's travails of presentation and last minute completion of an assignment....2 more assignments to hand in....nothing in my mind to pen any engrossing subject today..hmmm...




Absence

The host weak and deceived,
The evil parasite devours,
A remedy yet to be received,
That majestic health towers...

-Haze


I've not religiously been updating this mediocre blog of mine.....been occupied with work...and I've been snared yet again ungraciously by the flu....thank all the lucky stars it's not Avian flu.....(selisih malaikat 44)...2 days rest from work....but I'm not spared from the diabolical hands of assignments....therefore...nothing lost, nothing gained....haizz....


Simple

The plain life that I lead,
neither elaborate nor grand,
only happiness that I need,
and a husband as a great friend.

-Haze

Bloghopped to a few interesting reads...those filled with marital bliss surrounded with caring friends.... I am not occupied with resentment.....as for me, I am contented with the life I am living....my family is incomplete...I faced many obstacles along the way......I had to grit my teeth to get to the position I am now.....while others breezed their way effortlessly through life.....I know there is always hikmah behind every tragedy.....I accept all wholeheartedly....and the hardships......and till now I am still single..I won't be discreet about my age...yep, I am in my earyly 30's..I don't mind being called kakak or big sister...I am what I am.....neither glamorous nor perfect.....and neither a pompous show off......hmmm......well I better get back to the mounds of drudgery waiting for me...yep, the holidays are over.....and my assignments are piling up...haizz..


I ain't in the mood to pen a poem....something bothers me..I am grouchy...who else if not a parent who spoilt me day....it's not me race I reckon....or prolly she's buggered with the religion and race...heh....am I jumping to conclusions here?.....it seems every flaw that I make, this particular parent is ever ready to point out....sheeeshh...I've never faced such dilemma in my previous school altho' it was a Chinese school too....I have nothing against it but I still prefer a neighbourhood school.....that's where I perform the best...show me mettle...heh.....I am not gonna succumb to this thoughtless parent...NO WAY am I gonna falter....just focus on the other worthy pupils......I will persevere and hope fortitude accompanies me all the way..coz I believe Allah always tests us with the continuous trials......life on this earth is temporary....whatever one does, he or she will get the retribution...if not in this world, it is on Judgement Day....hmm...


Christina Georgina Rossetti : A Pause

They made the chamber sweet with flowers and leaves,
And the bed sweet with flowers on which I lay;
While my soul, love-bound, loitered on its way.
I did not hear the birds about the eaves,
Nor hear the reapers talk among the sheaves:
Only my soul kept watch from day to day,
My thirsty soul kept watch for one away:�
Perhaps he loves, I thought, remembers, grieves.
At length there came the step upon the stair,
Upon the lock the old familiar hand:
Then first my spirit seemed to scent the air
Of Paradise; then first the tardy sand
Of time ran golden; and I felt my hair
Put on a glory,and my soul expand. 



Swamped

Invaded and weaken,
This evil entity marches,
Can a cure mend the broken?
Before everything crashes...

-Haze


I am swamped with this persistent cough...the guilty party is Mr Flu Virus....blardy one at that....urghhh.....went to watch 'Date' movie in the eastern region......I found it a teensy weensy lame...hmmm...although hilarious at the same time.....but me ain't guffawing like an inane hyena having the fits....heh......merci beaucoup mon amie Nura(me colleague) for smsing to me the knock down price of 10 stickers for a mere dollar at the pasar malam....woohoo...the insatiable me grabbed 2 dollars worth.....(chortling with glee)......okay then..me gotta grapple with the English SA1 paper.... :OP


A bird's eye view of WTC and Sentosa from Mount Faber....it took my breath away... 



The sight from the cable car...initially had vertigo....however managed to conquer that... 



Live again

Emerging out of this substance,
A renewed sense of aura,
Added with a dash of confidence,
With fun and merry plethora...

-Haze

Albeit the mounds of drudgery and the imbroglio, this haggard being is able to absorb a brief interlude of rest......looking forward to Sunday....yep, gonna paint the town RED....hmmm


Swimming carnival today...yep, I am in Dolphin house...and the motif colour is blue....isn't it a coincidence that it is the most favourite colour that I am obsessed with....heh..blue sky....bluish swimming pool,blue balloons flying around you and blue shirts of all sorts......it created a fervour in me......I was on cloud nine albeit the irritating on and off migraine....just gritted me teeth....but the carnival was worth it as Dolphin house attained 2nd in the overall house category....KUDOSS!.. 



from this....at a few weeks old..with her milk bottle by her side 



to the present..Syawalina at 4 months old....how has she grown and an obviously mischievious cat...I love her to bits....



Times Like These

A bumpy and hazardous road ahead,
With the potholes like deep pits,
What is it that one should be afraid?
If one has figured out how the path fits....

-Haze

Confusion.......confession....guilt?....in layman's term....blurt it out on this blog of my hush-hush life affairs?.........nahhh...it can be delayed.........when I am ready to disclose it.....till then,I'll be discreet...heh..as the song goes, in times like these, you learn to live again...


Should I be caustic even with my own kind?It's disheartening to witness our own Malay community succumb to laziness and ignoring the importance of a quality education.Why do I say this?Something in the news perturbed me..the situation of our community moved me.Their lives are perfunctory.Unfortunately, I don't teach in a neighbourhood school ,however, all I can do is to encourage and extend my hand to guide those from the path towards achievement ,not to put a name for the community nor make a poignant change, but for them to blossom as successful individuals and lead better lives.I'm not a samaritan neither a person who yearns for recognition or acknowledgement....I wish our community makes a major step forward in being triumphant in their niche areas.....haizzz...if they can do it, why can't we?...i know saying is easier but we must commit to do it....hmm 



Minor

Little rays peek through the cracks ,
Trying to reach the gloomy corners,
Singapore life itself surely lacks,
with people who score in their manners.

Was having dinner at Beach Road after a tiring walk at Suntec City,relishing the marvellous red, spicy and sumptuous mee hoon goreng accompanied with the bubbly sugar cane drink when out of nowhere, emerged this blatant and nonchalant uncle who stood and placed his huge plastic bag on my table......yeah he was absolutely waiting for his order of packed food from the stall but that did not give him the privelege of dumping his thing and standing over me like a hawk......sheeshhh...sungguh tak ada sopan langsung!....that stance really pissed me off, however I kept my cool.....and cursed under my breath.....one of these days, I will bare my fangs and show me ferocious snarl....just wait and see the lucky one who tries to provoke me....GRRRRRRRRRR..


Beauty?

Don't judge a book by its cover,
Coz beauty lies only skin deep,
Bad character ain't a lover,
It makes one a total creep.

-Haze

Why do people discriminate the ones who are of lesser appearance than them?Do these people have the conviction that beauty or good looks are the key to choosing the right partner?hmmm....can I vouch that?hmmm....beauty is transparent......so when will a personality outshines the facade?....think about it...
