Friendster blogs tells me I am fast running out of disk space in my
account. Pity. I had a bunch of new photos I thought I’d put up for
display. It’s been a long while since my last snapshot adventure, and
now it looks like this may be well one of my last few entries before
I’m forced to split this page. Its not a bad thing really, considering
other blog sites offer much better options and services with no
restrictions, annoying ads and allow embedding, but its easier to write
from here. After 2 years, I’m already comfortable. Besides. Moving
sites will take effort, and I don’t care for much of that.
Sigh. Maybe I’ll quit altogether and do some actual living instead of only writingabout it all the time. Now there’s an idea…

I believe if there’s one good thing that’s come out of reading law,
it would be how my memory has improved. It didn’t occur to me until
last week, after I had gotten off the phone with Auntie Ratna (Murni’s
cool mum) who was giving me directions on how to get to PJ from Bangi.
The entire time she spoke, I had no paper on me, so I just sat quietly
and listened. “Right at the roundabout, then take the second left, move
right, then take another turn…” and so on. I’m not familiar with the
KESAS highway and have a high tendency to get myself lost on the road.
Worse, I have an even higher tendency to panic when I get myself lost
on the road.
After I hung up, I managed to locate a scrap paper and pencil nearby
and wrote everything out again from memory. I didn’t realise what I was
doing until Widad exclaimed: “You didn’t have a paper that entire time when Auntie was talking to you?!“
How’s that for skill eh?

Ummi and Widad have left to see Nenek. I’ve been left with the boys, and am in charge of cooking dinner for them and Abah.
Wish me luck.
Lots and lots of it.
Enough said here.
Ps. I am acutely aware of the fact that I haven’t written anything remotely serious in ages, this made especially obvious since there’s an abundance of grave issues plaguing the headlines more and more every day, but I am too fed up right now, starting with Israel’s incursion into Gaza, ending with racists and their issues right here in Malaysia. Just let me get through my exams first, before burying myself in depressing news again.
