Boboiboy Galaxy theme song featuring Yusuf and Safiyya

Since there is nothing much to do

Shu decided to record a video of me covering a Hanson song

I introduced Shu to this band and now he won't stop listening to this song

I love this song. This song and Our Farewell........

Of course,they have heavier songs but I discovered this band back when I was a freshman in college from one of those compilation celtic music CDs.

They sound exactly the way they did back then

I got bored

I cannot get enough of this song!

The best part about today's family gathering.....

..... Was when my aunt insisted that I conformed to a color for Qarim's "engagement" ceremony.

I insist on wearing black because 90% of my clothes are black.

We started our day super early. Well, I hardly slept last night. No idea why. We got home at around 11pm last night. We were at Aimi's house lighting up fireworks and sparklers. It was so much fun.

We jammed a little on my acoustic guitar when we got home coz I couldn't sleep. I've been writing again. Lyrics and songs. I miss this feeling :)

Shu and I were already having morning coffee at about 7am this morning. Shu put on some Hari Raya songs on the amplifier. We performed our prayer together and quickly got ready coz our rendezvous point was at Aimi's house and we thought we were running late.

Turns out, we were early. So, while everyone else was praying, Shu, Safiyya and I had breakfast. I brought my own coffee coz I am an addict. Our annual event would usually consist of "Salam" and photo sessions.

Then, at about 1pm,we went home. Showered and got ready to go to Taman Tun. I was so happy to see everyone there. My uncle was there. My aunt was there. Anas and Jaja were there. My brothers were all at home. Wani came back later with Simon and the kids. I haven't seen them in a long while.

Selamat Hari Raya peeps! 

Our comrades. 

Livin' On A Prayer

This was my favorite track from the movie

Paul Stanley of KISS

Shu surprised me with this today

This is a Fender Bullet Stratocaster Hard Tail and an Orange 12 watts amplifier 

I haven't been playing with the electric guitar for so long. It's a bit strange but the C neck is so ergonomic for my liking. It's way lighter than my LTD Viper 50 which was my very first electric guitar. All my life, all the jamming sessions and gigs, I had always been with my LTD. This is new feel. I like it. I should probably see if Rashid still has my Mega Distortion pedal 😒

Thank you, baby!

Apocalyptica Live Concert May 14th 2020

I waited for this since their last live posting........ And then, they played Hope and it brings me back to a place where I used to roam alone in my thoughts...... ❤️

AURORA teaser

So we made it to my parents house today.....

Shu said he wanted to cook and bring food over so that we can all eat together. It's been over 2 months since we've actually visited any family at all. It wasn't everyone coz Wani and Simon and the kids were not there and my aunt was at Wani's house. It was good that it wasn't crowded but it was not everyone. Still keeping our social Distancing in check. Shu and I jammed a little. Showed my dad the song we've been practicing throughout the quarantine. It was fun. My brothers had a good laugh over some silly jokes my parents could never understand.

Eeno is my younger brother but he looks like he's older than me. 

I have played this particular semi acoustic guitar since I could remember ever playing guitar. 

Food. The ones that Shu cooked and the ones my mom cooked and some that she bought. 

Feeling like I'm 16 again

Before RadioEdit, I was doing other random things......

Such as a backup vocalist for the band MODAR

Mood of the hour

Late check-in

Better late than never........

Quarantine has been strange. I know that I had always been the one with zero social life and even though my sister thinks I'm gonna come out of this just as myself, I still get a little crazy from time to time.

Just before the quarantine went official,Shu went on this shopping spree over on Zalora and got me a whole lot of clothes......a whole lot......of clothes........

I was doing some scrapbooking which was ok I guess.......managed to learn origami........learned to bake a cake.......Oh,I picked up on working out. I was working out every single day for about a week or two.....then,I worked out with a regular schedule........It gets really addictive.........I lost some weight coz I was doing the eat less,workout more thing. I still do........it's very typical of me to not feed myself well.........

Anywho, I had a hard time keeping up with the kids' school work schedule. Yusuf has classes everyday. He has an actual schedule like for homeschooling on Google Classroom. The other two babies have classes (more like Zoom Meetings) twice a week. I felt like a Personal Assistant for a while coz I had to make sure Safiyya and Ali Imran joined the meetings in time. I sometimes fail because I forget that some classes begin earlier and later.........

Our house immediately turned into a home office. There is an actual work printer with A4 papers on standby and my gaming laptop becomes the work computer. It's so weird. It's such a mess which I am not used to.

On a more positive note,I have learned to propagate my plants and somehow I think I might have managed to save my birthday Monstera plant from dying of rotten roots. This also means that I made a mess out on the balcony. At least my plants are alive and taken care of.

The beginning of this year was hectic. I was learning to be an adult parent and I was slowly re-learning how to socialize with other human beings.It's strange because I really thought I had to put in a lot of effort. Turns out,I'm quite the Capybara of the urban area ;) Some of the teachers did ask who I was coz Shu had always been the contact parent for the kids and I was non-existent.

I started driving again. Yes, I did. It's natural and scary. People scare me. Especially those behind the wheels. So,my routine would be waking up super early to make sure Yusuf gets to school on time. At the same time,I had to make sure Ali Imran was up and ready. Safiyya puts up a fight with me every single morning so she usually goes to school later.

The nice thing about this routine is that I usually get to have breakfast with Shu. Just the two of us. It's like a short date that occurs every morning. And we both actually have breakfast which is nice.
After that,we'd just go around with one car and I'd pack my brain dumping notebook and my laptop and I'd crash at his office until it's time to get the babies from school and have lunch.

When I get home,usually I'd make sure the kids get their afternoon naps (especially Safiyya coz she'd get cranky) Yusuf only comes home at 4pm. My evening routine would be to make sure Yusuf's school bag is packed for the next day. Ready everyone's school uniforms. Do the necessary laundry or whatever. Oh yeah,make sure their pencils are all sharpened and all their school supplies are there.

I am pretty sure Safiyya is not going to want to go back to school after all this. Shu and I are planning to take her out anyways. Yusuf and Ali Imran miss their school and friends. They miss going swimming and going to toy stores. Shu is enjoying his work life at home. I just want everyone to be safe.

This song had always been the Silverchair song I keep going back to

Safiyya and I used to listen and danced to this everyday

Then,there was also this.......

And this......

Tonight's concert is one that Shu and I can sing to

Every.... Damn..... Word.....
