Life: As the curtains to 2018 falls

- 34 days to 2019 Hello Assalamualaikum Hey, just felt like typing, like writing. There's this certain lazy vibe hovering around me this week, and i want punch myself for that. Its probably just me, pretending to be all lonely and stuff. My lab is now empty, a lab that used to be full of people when i entered and now, damn, i can hear every little sound, cause i'm practically alone. okay okay, i lied, there's probably a rat in here somewhere too. HAHA. My time here is also about to end, in a few months time, i hope, i'm praying hard for that too. And i just kinda feel like reminiscing this whole year, which was a crazy ride, all jokes aside. 2018 was crazy. To be honest, like really really super duper honest, this year almost broke me. But guess what, i didn't break which is awesome. IN YOUR FACE 2018, you didn't get to me, ehekhekhekkkk. However, i have to admit and i cannot deny, that i have changed, and the changes still shock me and i still can'...

Travel: Daehan minguk (Day 1)

Hi, Assalam So finally I have reached the land of my dreams and I couldn't be happier. But it was quite an interesting arrival. We took airasia flight to incheon at 2.50pm and arrived 9.20pm so the journey took about 6 hours. Upon arrival we went thru the usual process of immigration and claiming our luggage. Then came the interesting part where i was trying to topup the card for train rides, and altho i kinda can understand what everyone was saying, i couldn't say a word. I just showed my card. Showed the money, and bamm. Thank god the kid understood. Then we went to ask the counter about the train to reach our accommodation for the night and it was already 11.32 pm .The lady at the counter was like, the last train for today is 11.39, u better hurry. And lemme tell you what. The journey was not short from the counter to the train stop, basically we ran all the way and arrived just on time as the train arrived. Luck was really on our side. But the fact that the first thing we...

Random rants: moments

it's funny and kind of amazing how the mind works it takes a passing moment a nonreturnable past a person leaving for us to really appreciate what has already happened in that moment in the past with that person why ? well i guess, it's just a yearning, a longing, to want it again. it's not that we didn't appreciate what has already happened it's just how the moment actually meant enough for us to finally appreciate it that way. its kinda like being thankful that we had that moment

Random rants: Words coming back to haunt

Its scary, horrific even How words you say without meaning any harm might've caused harm might haunt you in the most unexpected ways I keep realizing a lot of things in life recently, and my most recent lesson is, Talk is just talk in the end, because when you are finally placed in the situation which you thought you could handle based on all the plans you made in your head, and all the words you spewed out to people. But once you face that situation itself, all your plans crumble, all you thought you could do, you couldn't, all the reasons you gave suddenly become so ridiculous. In the past, when i think about the future, i would have never ever thought that i'd be placed in this situation. I thought i did all i could to prevent things and i even thought that even if it happens, i've got the mind and heart to face it head on. But now its just extremely laughable, because of course, it happened, and when it happened, id just simply say, all the strong min...
