Some Aren't Meant To Be Appreciated

There's a scribble that came across my mind when I was in desperation. I posted it on my Facebook and got some responses and views about it. 

Whenever I'm in unstable mood, I tend to write the truth out of my heart. It has to be out.

Here goes:

"Sometimes the canvas reflects colours and art which you didn't wish to design according to your desire. This canvas isn't impressive enough to be exhibited at prestigious events or at established art galleries. How pitiful and sad to see unwanted and obsolete masterpiece. You keep on painting with painful heart and undivided dedication but still fail to impress. Then the canvas is torn; the cycle goes on again and again, failure after failure. The canvas would become a classic once you are gone (lucky enough), but usually be forgotten deep into despair."

Cerita Saya

Banyak benda nak diceritakan.
Banyak perkara mahu diluahkan.
Banyak kisah yang ingin dinukilkan.
Banyak cerita tapi tulisannya tak ada.

Sabarlah, akan dititipkan dalam kanvas merah ini.

Tak sabar, pergi jauh-jauh.

Semangat 1994


1994. Tahun ini aku Tingkatan Satu, tapi aku belajar di Sekolah Tinggi Dorothy Stringer, UK dalam Tahun Ketujuh (Year Seven). Aku baru mengenal dunia lebih luas di Kepulauan British dan benua Eropah. Indah dan tidak ternilai kehidupan ketika itu.

Itu cerita lain. Tahun 1994 juga... tahun gemilang buat AC Milan. Bertemu dengan pasukan favourite pada masa itu, FC Barcelona di Stadium Spyro Louis, Athens pada final Liga Juara-Juara Eropah, pasukan kami menang dengan jumlah gol besar yang tak disangka... 4-0. Empat kosong bai!

Memang power.


Tapi tahun ini mungkin nasib tidak sehebat tahun itu. Milan bungkus awal musim lepas dan Barca jadi juara. Berbekalkan semangat 1994, mampukah Abang Allegri menjana kejutan di Camp Nou seperti Pakcik Capello dulu?

"Last season was a great season, as we won the domestic title and the Italian Super Cup. It was a fantastic campaign with lots of changes – a lot of new players arrived – and we have a great base to start from this season. I hope it is the first of many titles, although I know it won't be easy. It was a great satisfaction to come here and win the domestic title in my first year. And we are just at the beginning."

Kita tengok ini malam di TV. Nak ke Camp Nou hantar roh bolehlah.

Forza ragazzi, forza Rossoneri, campioni d'Europa, a ovunque!

 
P/S: Pada 2007, Stadium Spyro Louis sekali lagi menjadi pentas juara buat Milan dengan menewaskan Liverpool FC dengan jaringan 2-1 (sekaligus membalas dendam kesumat tahun 2005 di Istanbul).

Towards Sunset

At 36,000 feet above sea level and entering the Malay Peninsula at Pekan, I sit and think of how would I spend my later life.

Now flying west into the sunset, the world enters to the Doors of Night. 

"Sun set sails west,
For the east bid goodbye.

The sky is dark, yet
the lights are flickering."

By the time this entry is posted, am already at the airport.

Kimen...

1. In-flight welcoming announcement at Kuching Airport (in English): "Ladies and gentlemen, we have landed safely and welcome to KL International Airport." Oi, bukan tadi fly dari KL ke? Flight crew tak alert ke? Kimen...

2. Apakah yang cuba dibuktikan dengan adanya dua palam pada satu wayar yang sama? Override electro surge ke? Patut beli soket untuk mentol kat hujung wayar lagi satu, boleh pulak selamba letak palam. Siap suruh tauke kedai pasangkan lagi. Malu saya. Kimen...

3. Akibat terlampau ghairah nak bayar air, boleh pulak dompet terlekat kat poket bermuda! Nak dialihkan pun masih stuck, siap bergentayangan lagi. Kena gelak lagi... Kimenn!!!

P/S: "Kimen" is a replacement for "(pu)kimak" and does not look like cement or taste like spearmint.
