Putra Azmil

Actually, this is just a simple announcement. But since I'm in a buoyant mood to blog, I'd like to announce it in a story mode. But let's backed up a little. Remember this? The post writing about a friend who went rogue, the one that pulled the 'trigger'? Okay now we may begin. One day on January 12th, Ijoi added me on fb. But faruk quickly pointed out to me that he's hardly on, that I need to add his wifey to get updates from that son of a gun.
Faruk was right. Ijoy rarely updates, because he's too busy playing his games. Such an addict, if you see his wall you can only see game request rather than comments or status updates. To the extend:

Tedia. Sampai bini marah. haha. I rofl when I read this. Tapi Ijoy memang suka main game-game camni. Dulu time kat hostel and kat Putat, he'd spent hours main game bodo-bodo kat Metacafe. Paling aku ingat sekali game 'Raja Dadah', where you need to make profit selling drugs based on economics demand and supply. Anyway, what Im trying to say is I hardly heard from the brat. Until la last week when:

I didnt give it much thought when faruk mentioned the 'anak' thingy since as far as I could remember, Ijoy told me that he's planning. And during his visit in Penang pun, he didnt say much about Ijoi. Until la today when I read the wifey's status:
You stud, you becoming a father! Dah rezeki. Plan2 pun dapat. This may comes a bit late, but congratulations ijoy.Hopefully delivery goes well. Pasni takleh main game lama2 dah. haha. And sorry for being such an ignorant. Ang bukannya nak update fb, kheja main game ja. hahaha. clearly I need to add the wifey.

P.s:- wife added
P.s.s:- any thoughts on the name? How about Putra Azmil zukilefeli? (bukan zulkifli ya)

the awakening

Faruk came by to visit last Wednesday after almost 10 months since the last time we hung out. Kalau dah 10 months, that means Ijoi's marriage is nearing it's one year anniversary. Kudos Ijoi. As always, we caught up stories updating whats new with our life. It always amazed me how we could, you know, just 'hit it off' even after quite some time being apart. There's no awkwardness, no uncomfortable chat, no pretentious drama. We just picked where we left off, as if we were never apart. As if nothing has changed.

We also made time to play futsal with my friends. And boy, he's more of a complete player now. I mean, I have always regard him as a top player but a few years ago, he was only a rough diamond. And now he has turned into a polished, shiny gem. During his visit he also managed to get to know Naqi and Nabil. Good God, the siblings were revealing my stories; embarrassing ones to him. After listening to them, Faruk ripped me off, hard. Celaka faruk. Celaka the MNR sibling.

But being ripped off and having banters thrown at me had made me realize how much I miss the good old days. People hardly ripped me off here in Penang. Maybe because most of my friends are younger so they hesitated to do so. I also realized that I have come a long way to be where am I right now. I have changed. We all do. There are dreams that I have given up, and there are new dreams that I wanted to pursue. So did Faruk. He finally wanted to settle down, and he had also decided to resume the family business.


We have taken a different path. We have changed. Papaq is trying to get himself to study in the US, Pakwan is now a Forex trader, Kuga is now interested in politics (haha), and Faruk finally wants a committed relationship. But one thing will remain unchange; the bond and the memories that we have. We would still remember how Faruk and I got robbed. We would still remember Papaq's offside trap. We would still remember the day Kuga accidentally ate beef. And we would still remember Pak Wan's cooking. Wherever, whenever, we could just picked where we left off. Like a long lost brothers.

IOU

I use a lot of abbreviations/internet slang when I am chatting or texting. It makes my life easier that way. I dont have to type long words and I can deliver the message quickly. However, not all people know these abbreviations I've been using and I have to take some time explaining to them. In the end, the time that I expected to save was spent explaining to them, thus defeating the purpose of abbreviations: to save time. Once, i texted a girl 'lol' and she thought it means 'lots of love'. lol. I had a hard time explaining to her. Well here are some of the most frequent abbreviations used by me:

LOL - laugh out loud

LMAO - laughing my ass off

ROFL - rolling on the floor laughing

ROFLMAO - rolling on the floor laughing my ass off

SNAFU - situation normal, all f***ed up

TBH - to be honest

IMO - in my opinion

IMHO - in my humble opinion

TTML - talk to me later.

TTYL - talk to you later

GG - good game

YALLA - hurry up in arabic (picked it up when I was in mmu)

FFS - for f*** sake

ETA - estimated time of arrival

FTW - for the win

IDK - i dont know

vroom vroom - racist son of a gun

fap fap - masturbating

noob - newbie, but meant in an offensive way.

troll - the act of spamming unnecessary stuff in forums, fb walls etc


there's plenty more. will update if i can think of any.

Sherlock Holmes

Contrary to popular believe, Im not arrogant. I can easily admit defeat, and I can easily admit it if I were wrong. All you got to do is prove that I'm wrong. Easy. Like I said in my post earlier, I am a man of logic and a man of facts. I'll state my case and you state yours and we'll decide who is right. But nowadays I hardly found anybody worth an argument. It's either their argument was too weak or I hardly put a foot wrong. Hmm..

The reason why I need proven points is because if I were to apologize or if I were expecting an apology from someone, it's better damn worth it. You cannot tell me, "hey, you're wrong" and expect me to apologize right away. I need to listen first. Tell me what did I do wrong? Why did I do wrong? So that I can learn to be a better man or so that I can counter your ridiculous, absurd ideas to the ground.

And please, try not to lie with tons of bullshit because I can see through it. I'm too clever for most people to lie to. A lot of people can testify to this. Lying to me is like insulting my intelligence. The moment you lied is the moment I've lost my respect towards you. So tread lightly. Even if you managed to slip past me with a lie to get my apology, dont be so happy. Eventually the truth will prevail.

Like recently. For a while, I thought I was at fault. I thought I was wrong and I apologized regrettably. But it turned out that all this while, I was right after all. Thank you. You just fed my ego bigger. Wow. The same song, really? do you really have to be so shallow? You've not just lose my respect, but you've lost your credibility too. Pathetic, it is. You're dead to me. And as for my apologies, I take them back. ok cun
