i'm with you all the way

Wilkommen

Aufsteigende Flügel is German for "Soaring Wings", a beautiful piano piece composed by Masashi Hamauzu. It is a retreat, a place for me to speak my mind, my thoughts, and my ideas. I bid you all welcome and please, enjoy your stay while you can.

In case you're wondering, the song you hear playing in the background is called Memories, composed and performed by Kow Otani for the best PS2 game of all time, Shadow of the Colossus. This was one of the many unused tracks from the game, so I thought I might do it justice playing this lovely track here. It may take a while to load, but please pause it and give it a good listen. Otani makes good music (unfortunately, this is the only one I know of), and this is one of them. Enjoy!

fatal frame crash course!

i went to sakinah's place for a sleepover (that was on friday) and well, the first few hours were fulfilled by showing 'em some videos and pictures in my laptop. We enjoyed College Saga and the Ask-A-Ninja video. then, i thought of trying aiman's "prince of persia: two thrones" game on sakinah's ps2, but her ps2 doesn't seem to like the prince. ;___; so we played fatal frame 1 instead. Hehe.

unfortunately, there wasn't enough space on sakinah's memory card so i suggested to play without any saves, just to see how long we lasted. but lol, everytime we felt like quiting (either because we were lost, or out of herbal medicine/sacred water/stone mirrors), there's always any of those items nearby. it was as though the game wanted us to finish it. they were supporting us too! wheeeee!

but we only made it to the last part, and got killed by a random ghost who apparently likes to charge aimlessly. 0__0 that just suck.

sakinah and i stayed up till 4 am in the morning, watching a sort-of psychotic horror movie entitled "the living and the dead" (sorry, aiman!). it wasn't that scary. just...gory. and sad. =(

we were both lying down on the bed, just talking about things we missed. and then ryu came out and got uber scared by nich. hehe, he's still scared of people touching him. especially girls.

Akiko: that's one thing you need to fix, Ryu, whether you like it or not.
Ryu: you don't get it! it just...send chills down your spine! it's...gaah!
Akiko: you're just scared, ryu.
Ryu: no i'm not
Akiko: yes you are
Ryu: no i'm not >=(
Akiko: yes you are >8)
Ryu: i read porn, for god's sake!
Akiko: doesn't seem to have much effect. *smirk*
Ryu: shaddup, at least i tried!

well, uh...ignore those two.

in the morning, i followed sakinah to her turkish class, just for a short while. it seemed pretty odd, their pronounciation and such. and they sounded a wee bit like russian to me. 0__0 but i had to leave early to attend the hi-tea at the main campus.

it was 10am something, and i father dropped me off at home first. he had to go to the hospital to go check his eyes. but when the time to leave was nearing, i gave him a call and told him that it was nearing 2pm. lol, he thought it was at 4pm. but eitherway, he couldn't make it by then. he was still in the hospital. and i recently found out that my family as a hereditary disease on the eyes that causes blindness. the doctor's suspected that my father had one, and there is a high possibility that any one of us in my family has that as well.

well, that scared me. but the fact remains, i couldn't attend the hi-tea.

then again, that doesn't mean i can't go out elsewhere if someone offers me transport. *smirk*

so, i went out with aiman and managed to catch "the game plan" yesterday at gsc 1 utama! Well, i actually wanted elsewhere, but i was really craving for fish and chips from fish and co., that's why it had to be 1 utama. We were pretty lucky to get a nice parking space near the escalators in the new wing. WHEE~

we met up with russ soon after that and had dinner at fish and co. it seemed pretty full at first, but the waiter managed to get us a seat all the way at the back. there were seats outside as well, but the seat we got were inside. after much persuasion (no, actually, there weren't any persuasion done. =3), we managed to get a seat outside, near the aquarium!

there were not many fishes in there, and one of 'em had a crooked tail. A carp, if i'm not mistaken. russ named 'em all correctly. LOL. it was interesting. poor aiman though, we left him all alone at the table while we went to look at fishes.

well, a few strange things happened after that.

  • there was a blackout in the indoor part of the restaurant (lucky us!)
  • russ spilled his drink on the table. ;___;
  • there was yet, another blackout in the indoor part of the restaurant (lucky us, again!)
  • right after our food arrived (or maybe a little ways after that), we got the blackout on the outdoor part (karma at its best, lol)
  • while we were still eating, another blackout occurred on our part. again. (yes, karma's really fair here. two blackouts each, lmao)
  • and russ spilled his drink again! this time, it spilled on my jeans! ^_^;
Oh well. It was an interesting outing, I must say~ lol. we had russ drive us back on aiman's car (aiman was a wee bit sleepy by then) and aiman and i had the back all to ourselves. hehehehe.

the day ended with a horribly tight curfew, and a series of lectures from my father. but hey, at least i came back. better that than me staying out all night, eh? oh well, i suppose not all things work that way. hee~

thanks for the outing, aiman and russ, and thanks for having me at your place, sa-chan. i'll definitely look forward to our next sleepover! (*hinthing* this week at sharleen's!)

over and out~ =3
