Shu picked a song on our drive home from dinner last night

It was Livin' On A Prayer by Bon Jovi. I sang it out loud without butchering the verses. It was epic!

So, we moved

We finally moved. It's not completely over coz some of our stuff are still in the old house. But most of our things are with us at the new place.

A Different Kind Of Human


Are you awake or are you sleeping?
Are you afraid? We've been waiting for this meeting
Oh, Superman, are you with me when I am too weak?
Oh, Mother, are you dreaming of me in your sleep?
We have come here for you, and we're coming in peace
Mothership will take you on higher, higher
This world you live in is not a place for someone like you
Come on, let us take you home
It's time to go, you are infected
Come as you are, don't be scared of us, you'll be protected
(Protected, protected)
I guess you are a different kind of human
I guess you are a different kind of human
We have come here for you, and we're coming in peace
Mothership will take you on higher, higher
This world you live in is not a place for someone like you
Come on, let us take you home
Omega hai foleet, Omega hai foleet
Omega toneca, Omega for let in
Omega hai foleet, Omega hai foleet
Omega toneca, Omega for let in
There is a flaw in man-made matters
But you are pure, and we have to get you out of here
We have come here for you, and we're coming in peace
Mothership will take you on higher, higher
This world you live is not a place for someone like you
Come on let us take you home
We have come here for you, and we're coming in peace
Mothership will take you on higher, higher
This world you live is not a place for someone like you
Come on, let us take you home
Omega hai foleet, Omega hai foleet
Omega toneca, Omega for let in
Omega hai foleet, Omega hai foleet
Omega toneca, Omega for let in
Hello? Hello?
Hello? Hello?
Is anyone out there?
Am I home? Am I home?

Since there is nothing much to do

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


Thursday, May 28, 2020

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.

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.

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!
