lapar tahap marah

the secret kiss

a quiet smile,

soft speaking voices

flashes of light and colour

sparkle in their eyes

empty chatter at an odd hour

and then…

a moment of courage

a sweet intent

a kiss

dead silence

she closes her eyes and counts to ten

red cheeks as she opens them

they both smile

she wakes up from her sweet dream

tenderly stroking her right cheek

she closes her eyes and counts to ten

red cheeks as she opens them

she knew the kiss was secret

and it was hers to keep.

In my night sky, you are the moon; the light that shines on my way back home.

Everyone else are just stars; insignificant and absent on most nights.

you are my everything

Mama: Fatin, Happy Birthday. Lupa pulak *senyum besar*

Me: Thank you *salam and cium pipi*

Mama: Nak kasut roda kan?

Me: BOLEH KE? *lompat excited*

Mama: Abah kata mengarut...

Me: Kenapa?!

Abah: Nak buat apa dengan kasut roda tu?

Me: Boleh buat kaki i kuat! Kaki i dah la besar...

Abah: Alah, sekarang pun malas.

Mama: Tak pe, Mama tak bagi kasut roda. Mama bagi kuda kat Fatin (kuda yang di maksudkan disini adalah mesin senam iGallop yang baru sampai rumah Ahad lepas)

love earth

You must love the crust of the earth on which you dwell more than the sweet crust of any bread or cake. You must be able to extract nutriment out of a sand-heap. You must have so good an appetite as this, else you will live in vain.

Henry David Thoreau

Happy Earth Day

its my way, or the highway, baby!

I made spaghetti bologna yesterday for lunch and made the HUGE mistake of telling my chef-friend Diniy who quickly told me that the way I did it was "tak best tak best!" He then took the liberty to give me his recipe. Apparently its good enough to give you orgasms ;) This is a Ragu sauce people. So, Prep time MAY TAKE 10 minutes, but cooking it will take your entire life. heheheheh.

Prep time: 10 minutes (according to Diniy who can chop super fast so jangan percaya)

Cooking time: 2 hours at least

Serves: 5 to 6

 Ingredients:

360 grams finely chopped onions

180grams finely chopped celery

180 grams finely chopped carrots

1 finely slice of whole garlic clove

453 grams of minced lean beef.

beef bacon 130grams finely chopped

400 grams of canned or peeled tomatoes and 200 grams of tomato paste

or

500 fresh tomato puree and 200 grams tomato paste

400 grams of beef stock (apparently I’m supposed to make my own...tsk)

250 ml of milk

Steps:

1.       Firstly, heat up the pan. Once heated, add oil, then add butter

2.       Then add the onion, celery and carrots. Sweat it (which is cooking but you don’t burn it...right Diniy?)

3.        Add the garlic. Before it starts to brown, add the beef and the chopped beef bacon

4.        Stir constantly till the beef is brown (about 20 minutes)

5.       Add in tomato paste and stir constantly for about 5 minutes.

6.       Add the milk and let it simmer. Stir constantly till the milk is absorbed

7.       Add in the tomatoes—tomato puree + canned tomatoes/peeled tomatoes

8.        Bring to gentle simmer, and cook for about...2 HOURS! (!!!!!!!!) Stir occasionally.

Okay, phew, that's it :) happy trying!!!

what it feels like for a girl

short and sweet. the song says it all

The Song Across The Wires

I'm a picture without a frame.
A poem without a rhyme.
A car with three wheels.
A sun without fire.
I am a gun without bullets.
I am the truth without someone to hear it.
I am a feeling without someone to feel it.
This is who I am.
A mess without you.
Something beautiful with you.


-I Wrote This For You-

thank you

for believing in me,
and for telling me I can when the only thing I have in mind is "I cannot".

you are a gem.
