So beautiful are your eyes...
Hi there me myself. Hi there friends. Hi there friends of my friends. Hi there strangers. Hi hi and hi. It's 2.53am and I'm ignorantly sipping coffee from one of my favourite mugs. Yup this is my favourite time for a cuppa. I mean a hot cup of coffee. Or cups perhaps. I'm savoring my ear drums with Aqueous Transmission by Incubus. It's really a nice song to be heard during this time and for me, the song has some undescribable soothing effects on my tangled emotion.
There is a koto (a japanese guitar-like instrument), an acoustic bass i think, slow drum beats, melodic violin sound, frogs croaking rhythmically, pipes (seruling@serunai tah la aku xtau...rekorder kut haha), a whole bunch of unidentified instruments, some mild deejay scratching sound (believe me it's there and it contributes quite a significant amount of roles for the song's humbleness.. weird eh?) and last but not least: Brandon Boyd's seducing vocals with his ahhh~ trailing voice.
But actually the thing I'm supposed to hear right now is the Takbir because tomorrow, Muslims all over this graceful sphere will celebrate Eid Al-Adha. I hope tomorrow's preach will be interesting as I'm still wide awake right now and there's this 90% chance for me to seek sheer pleasure of cruising in the slumber world while the khatib is delivering his preach. Hmm let me recall first. I don't think I've ever slept in the masjid during preaches, be it either for the Friday prayers or both Eid Al-Fitr and Eid Al-Adha. However, some "accidental" exceptions did occur but it was during my secondary school years.
Being in a boarding school, what do you expect when your own religious teachers were the khatibs and their preach were much the same as what they were going to say during Monday assembly (err my school puts up one assembly per day from Monday until Friday every week. Plus another one on working Saturdays). So many preaches. So little outcomes. Haha. Well if I was to uphold Islam firmly as my religion during my school days, I should've at least listen to all of those good-sayings. Just like in the Al-Quran, a part from Surah Al-Asr which goes something like this: "Remind others with the truth. And remind others with patience". Don't get me wrong. I'm no preacher. In fact I'm not that pious of a Muslim. But it's just something I would like to jot down. Just as a reminder for myself. And for you perhaps.
Hmm nothing's interesting today. Oh yes maybe there is. First, I finally got the chance to have a little conversation via Yahoo Messenger with Rina, a girl I merely know and likewise for her. Before this I've made several attempts to talk with her but to no avail. I don't know. Maybe she was too busy. Maybe I was very irritating. Well it doesn't matter anymore haha poyo je la aku ni. I knew her existence through Lalok and his gf, and from other friends as well. Nothing fancy with my intentions. I just want to see her working out with her skills on playing the piano, as I heard she's quite an applausable pianist. Boleh kan Rina kan? Kalau xleh sukati ko la ah ah ah...
Second, the David Letterman Late Night Show. I don't know what happened to Dave. Maybe he's on a vacation or something like that. Guess who was the host? It was Paul! Yes the very same bald Paul who used to play the keyboard for Dave's show. And I think he is quite good too. Not surprising though because he did make some good spontaneous hostings with Dave on the show. But my biggest question goes to Dave: where are you? Oh well like I care whatever happens to you haha. Aha the guest performing artist was a band called And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead. Quite a tedious effort just to enunciate their name. They look something like those guys from Weezer. You know those nerdy-80's looks. Their music was okay to me. Eccentric. They colored the music world with something different. That's cool.
What's more cooler than ice cubes (did u notice? This is a part of the Hey Ya! lyrics by Outkast. I love Outkast!) is that they have two drummers. And I mean two drummers with two drum sets. I was eager to see how superb the outcomes will be by having two drummers in a band. As expected...nothing much. Pretty simple drumming I would say. There are some sounds in their performance that is hard to be done by a single drummer but it was hardly countable or should I say, hardly noticable. Thumbs down. You can watch the video by clicking here.
It's now 4.44am and I fancy a little sleep right now but darn, my coffee is still in the mug and it's still looking heavenly delicious as ever. And there's still 1 hour 15 minutes left for my Naruto 119 anime to finish download. I guess I'll just have to stop here. To my Muslim fellows: Selamat Hari Raya Eid Al-Adha. Maaf Zahir Batin. Bye and enjoy your day~
p/s - Take a listen to Patah by Padi. My legs turned into lime jello upon hearing this song haha. To Acad: Best ke raya UK?? Malaysia lagi meriah siot ah ah ah...
I miss my chimpanzee: meme. Jgn panjat² pokok ye monyet...
