on randomness #1

hey beautiful people! just wanna share random things thats on my mind, or should i say, the things that i actually wanted to post before but very lazy to finish writing the whole thing, so i'll just summarise all (or maybe save some for later :p) in this entry. ok?

i went to Australia recently. Adelaide & Melbourne to be exact. Adelaide is in the south of Australia while Melbourne is an hour (++) flight journey to the east of Adelaide. if i am not mistaken :p the weather was just nice. hot but breezy in the day, while chill but not freezing at night. but you'll wake up with a very cold feet in the morning. so wear those fluffy cute pair winter socks to sleep hokay! :D

i mean these:

told you its fluffy and comel right?? as my feet are experiencing winter all year long during the night, i continue wearing them to sleep here in Malaysia too! haha

morning in Adelaide. in the CBD.

 late evening in Adelaide. this is the beautiful Glenelg beach!

night in Adelaide. in the city.

 found this poster at a bus stop in Glenelg. notice the punchline: 'Golden Gaytime'? well, i took this because i wanted to show it to Apiz but keep on forgetting. until we both fell in love with krushers last week! it is actually yummms! hehehe definitely golden gaytime!! ;p

the street pianos! this was the one in front of University of Adelaide.

 this was the one in Rundle Mall.

and this is the one in Adelaide's Airport! and one more thing bout the airport, people can send the passengers off til the boarding gate!! like even if you're not going to board the plane, you can still walk in, go through all the security checkpoint and send off your family or friends till the gate e.g. gate 7, gate 24, gate R (Kuching Intl Airport ada gate R)! how awesome is that??? :D

eh. malas dah mok cita bout Melbourne. hehe coz i wanna share lotsa photos i took in Melbourne. i'll save it for later share it with you guys in a latter post okay? like you care kan if i post it or not. hehe prasan jeh ;p lemme just say, as much as i super love the streets i walked up and down in Melbourne, the cold weather so i have the chance to wear my leather jacket (ahah!), the interconnected shopping malls and the free city circle tram, like i said before, nothing tops a salam given to me by a stranger upon entering the tram to St. Kilda beach :) her smile affected my mood, and her salam affected my soul, til this day. i might sound like i'm exaggerating, but i was desperate for a hint of familiarity after six days being in a foreign country where you scrutinies every ingredient of each meal. it was an amazing feeling, i felt recognised and it made me feel that i wasnt alone :') after experiencing such a huge impact on the street of Melbourne and knowing how a simple salam could help someone feel much much better, i say it out to strangers at every chance that i got in Melbourne, the Muslim ones of course :) and having them answering the salaam, it just clicked in my heart that someone else in this foreign land believes in what i believe, and i smile to myself while continuing my walk :) :) :)

lets move on to a cute situation. cute? erghh. ok you decide if its cute after you read this conversation:

one fine evening, we were in the car, i was wearing my purple contact lens, a few days after Apiz's 25th birthday...

Apiz: Atenn...nangga dunia sik jadi rona purple ka?

Aten: haaa?? (i thought he was berbual kosong and trying to be cute..)

Apiz: smua-smua tok, urang. sik jadi rona purple kaa?

Aten: (gave him the stare for 2 seconds...) aie aoklah semua tok jadi rona purple (i played along lah konon)

Apiz: aih MENA KAH??

Aten: aiee.. (i realised he was asking innocently) aoklah semua urang jadi rona purple kedak Barney. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Apiz: ????????

Aten: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA (tetak goleng-goleng.. ok tipu coz sekpat goleng dalam motor)

awwwesome! - Barney Stinson

on a slightly different note, i came across this short film just now, it is somewhat sad. but this used to be my number one fear once upon a time, before i started dating anyone, before i like Apiz :) i used to think 'what if it didnt work out? would we say 'hi' if we bump into each other on the street afterwards? would it feel awkward if i see him holding someone else's hand when he was supposed to hold mine?' i pray hard that we wont be strangers ever, in the future. InsyaAllah :) now seat back and watch this. pssst.. you might need a piece or two of tissues to wipe those crocodile tears.

i like the butterflies in the stomach part the best! Alhamdulillah the butterflies in mine & Apiz's stomach are still flying around happily and i think they doubled their amount by 10000000x :D (mainly coz of the growing size of our tummies! kidding!) and recently Apiz claimed that he has butterflies in his legs. maybe it bears the same meaning as jelly legs kan? hihihi i am glad that although Apiz is now 25, he still acts like a five-year-old boy sometimes :p

now lets soothe it out and call it a day with this video. i love that Yuna involves Qi in every opportunity that she could get. then again, she was thinking of him anyways when she wrote this right? ;)

if only i could make one of those love notes fall on Apiz's shoulder now, wherever he might be :)
