mr. little loser!

Enough is never enough.

Sigh.
Lost the fight, the bet, and ready to pay the price.
So here I am, coming clean.
Defeated! Indeed. It sure sucks that I'm unable to restrain the urge.
Well, bad habits do die hard. But I'm not gonna stop here. I'm still pushing myself, though it would take time, but I, will, make, this, a, reality!
I've lost count of the days we've been OFF of It. 8 or 9 days maybe. But, it's quite a progress I tell you. It's been a stressful period, garhhh if only i could resisted It just for the weekends. Guess long distance driving acquires It in me to keep me awaken, freshen, and alert? Pffftz.
She indeed did her best to resist, and abide the rules of the bet. And so did I? Well, I did, and sorry that I came clean a bit later. Are you gonna be pissed of this? I hope not. She is definitely stronger than I thought. I hope she'll continue her fight after this. She's been up to something healthy, and that's a WOOOHOO YOU GO GIRL! for her.
K, this would be the part where I go down in defeat, and you deserve to rub it in (insert me+Mr.Loser+L sign on forehead here). Here are some proverb/sayings related to DEFEAT and hope that from this I can gain something. I WILL!

Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure.~
Defeat the Defeat before the Defeat defeats you.
How easy it is to defeat people who do not kindle fire for themselves.
We learn little from victory, much from defeat.
We learn the value of things more in their loss than in their enjoyment.
Weeping makes the heart grow lighter.
A man is not defeated by his opponents but by himself.
Being defeated is only a temporary condition; giving up is what makes it permanent.
We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.

Day 7? Day 8? Losing track.

Each day that I’m away from you
I feel so weak inside
I hope that God would give me strength
to get me through the day

And when I lay awake at night
I’ll dream that you’ll be by my side
I hope that God would give me strength
to get me through the night

It’s a fact I can’t deny,
that you are far away from me
But my heart is there with you
until my life is through

It’s the pain that I must face
There’ll be time that I’ll be mad at you
This is only just because
I love you so...so very much

For all the things that you’ve done for me
I’ll repay them with sincerity
I hope that God would give me strength
to take good care of you

And don’t you ever cry my love
we’ll be together oh someday
I hope that God would give me strength
to find a way

THIRD DICE - NEW HOPE (lyric)

Day 6 - Brain Dead

Day 6 - Can't do much thinking anymore. Am I losing you? Tell me what to do~ (yess this is a song hint: Jim Reeves)
harhar...me wants another stick. just 1 stick k? comrade..1 stick. a day. ok? a stick a day won't hurt? harhar..this sucks.
IT..u suck!

Day 5 - Battle that is lost. Almost?

Day 5 - Lost the match, and almost lost the bet. Penaltied for taking a stick. Garhh what losing can do to you, the frustration, it sucks i tell you.

Day 4 (sì)- IT dies tonight

IT... has taken ITs affect on me~ i, am no more capable to think, neither do not even know what I am writing. The situation now is like a sail boat, drifting on an open wide sea, just to follow where the wind blows, without no one navigating it.
IT...was easy to be addicted to IT. I still remember, it was 7 years ago. Imagine, 7 years of IT, and now, a sudden end. IT aches inside, roars, urges, which affects the Mind and Emotions, I do not know the connection between IT, the Mind, and Emotions, but it seems that IT has ITs abilities, to manipulate, tempt, and trigger them...to what they are and what they were.. doesn't make sense huh? Well, IT's the effect I tell you.
IT...I had enough of you. It is time I shed a new skin. Enough is enough. And this is where you stop running my life. I will do anything, to not see you again. And by that, I mean it.
IT... This is The End.

YAAAAATA!

"No pain, no gain" is the most common line you will hear when you are into extreme sports. Well not just in sports, but life also has its pain to endure and the victory that you will gain. Okay, lets not start about life.

Skimboarding (or skimming) (or Skiffle Boarding) is a boardsport in which a skimboard (a smaller, sleeker version of a surfboard) is used to ride on an incoming wave. Unlike surfing, skimboarding begins on the beach, with the skimboarder running and dropping their board onto the thin wash of previous waves. They use their momentum to 'skim' out to breaking waves, which they then catch back into shore in a manner similar to surfing. Another aspect of skimboarding is 'flatland' which involves performing tricks derived from skateboarding such as ollies and shuv-its on the wash of waves without catching shorebreaks. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skimboarding)

In Sabah, skimboarding is a new sport, where only a number of individuals can be considered as the OTAIs(old-timer). There is a club for skimboarders, known as Borneo Wave Rider or Persatuan Luncur Air Sabah under Rakan Muda. They were amongst the pioneers here, and also our tutors (Thanks for lending the boards). There is even Ocean Saliva Skimboards (http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Kota-Kinabalu-Malaysia/Ocean-Saliva-Skimboards/128872525815?ref=ts), a brand that promotes the sport in Sabah, selling skimboarding merchandise, and even entertain and teach newcomers (You are all welcome to join).

As for me, I have just started this sport somewhere July last year. It was hard at first as I have no basic in skateboarding. So it took approximately 1 whole week for me to learn the basic movement, the timing, the stance(feet positioning and body gesture), and even the guts to jump on board. It was not that easy. Bruises, cuts, and scratches are synonym to skimboarding.

Therefore, do not expect that you will be excused from these, as beginners and professionals must endure the pain which brings the thrill to the sport. Today, I tested the newly-built ramp, and WOOOHOOO the adrenaline pump was different when you are on top of the ramp. the thought of miss-skill, then falling, and banging your head to the wood ramp, garhh sure slows you down a bit. But YAAAATA!!! my first try was a success. I manage to pass the ramp, newbishly but I DID IT!!! Seeing your friends try and fell, sure traumatize you a bit. But still the show(?) must go on.

I took a video of the ramp session, and it is yet to be edited. Will upload it later once it is done. In the mean time, here is a video I took during one of our flatland session, the LOSER game. The game is simple, a person(take turn) will do a trick, and the others must do the same. Those who failed to do the trick will gain a letter each round, until he/she completes the word LOSER. This is done until 1 person is left and he/she is the winner.

Enjoy Beach!

Lloyd, I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken : A Literature Analysis

He said “I’ll protect you like you are the crown jewels” yet
Said he’s feeling sorrier for me the more I behave badly I can bet

Hey Lloyd I’m ready to be heartbroken
'Cause I can’t see further than my own nose at this moment

Jealousy is more than a word now I understand
You can't stay a girl while holding a boy’s hand

Hey Lloyd I’m ready to be heartbroken
'Cause I can’t see further than my own nose at this moment
Hey Lloyd I’m ready to be heartbroken
'Cause I can’t see further than my own nose at this moment
At this moment

I’ve got my life a compilation here to sort out
I’ll take myself to an east coast city and walk about

Hey Lloyd I’m ready to be heartbroken
'Cause I can’t see further than my own nose at this moment
Hey Lloyd I’m ready to be heartbroken
'Cause I can’t see further than my own nose at this moment
Hey Lloyd I’m ready to be heartbroken
'Cause I can’t see further than my own nose at this moment
At this moment

Literature is the art of written works. Poetry, novels, short stories, song lyrics, and even blogs are literature as these are all written works. Literature reviewing is a process that aims to identify the critical points, the analysis of the written materials, and the components that makes the literature unique, and which portrays and resemble something in or about life. Like nature, a literature can be appreciated. This is why an analysis is done as to get better understanding of the messages (literal/figurative meaning) that the writer is trying to convey to the readers. Some song lyrics are poems, better known with the term lyric poetry.

Lyric poetry is a short poem with one speaker (not necessarily the poet) who expresses thought and feeling. Though it is sometimes used only for a brief poem about feeling (like the sonnet), it is more often applied to a poem expressing the complex evolution of thoughts and feeling, such as the elegy, the dramatic monologue, and the ode. The emotion is/or seems personal In classical Greece, the lyric was a poem written to be sung, accompanied by a lyre. (http://academic.brooklyn.cuny.edu/english/melani/lit_term.html#lyric)

Like poems, song lyrics have genres of its own. Genre is the theme(subject matter), which acts as a mood setter or settings, resembling the environment as a whole. The usage of metaphors, similes, idioms, and personification can be found in some song lyrics. Besides that, the use of symbolic words, appropriate tone, and tragedy overview helps the process of appreciating a literature. This provides better and clear literal and figurative message to the lines for the listener/reader.

From the analysis of "Lloyd, I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken", the song title itself conveys the theme/genre(subject matter) of the song, which is someone who is confident, prepared and ready to accept relationship breakups. Besides that, it has the theme of acceptance of self-guilt and the consequences.

He said “I’ll protect you like you are the crown jewels” yet.
Said he’s feeling sorrier for me the more I behave badly I can bet

The first stanza shows how caring and loving the guy was for the persona, and that the guy confessed that he could not handle or control the misbehave of the attitude of persona. "Crown jewels" is used as to symbolize how precious the persona is, and that how the guy will protect her.

Hey Lloyd I’m ready to be heartbroken
'Cause I can’t see further than my own nose at this moment

The second stanza, which is the chorus for the song, states that the persona is prepared for breakups. The idiomatic expression line "'Cause I can't see further than my own nose at this moment" literally means short-sighted, but figuratively, means that the persona cannot foresight or foresee the future of the persona and the guy, as a long-term relationship, probably caused by the problems that arises between them and might probably because of the persona's attitude herself.

Jealousy is more than a word now I understand You can't stay a girl while holding a boy’s hand

The first line of third stanza, states that the persona now knows the practical meaning of jealousy, the envy emotion that one felt, upon knowing that his/her mutual partner is having another relationship with other person at the same time. In this case, the jealousy that came from the persona's boyfriend. The second line probably tries to convey the message that a girl cannot be a girl (carefree, free and joyfully converse/hang out with male/female friends) while in a relationship.

I’ve got my life a compilation here to sort out I’ll take myself to an east coast city and walk about

From the stanza, the persona is messed up, and needs to snap out of it, improve herself and be a better person/lover. The second line probably means that she will move to other state, probably a suburban and probably live in the wild as to avoid from ever meeting his/her ex-lover again. This stanza also portrays the remorse of her own misbehave, the consequences, and the guilt she felt. She accepts the fact, and ready to accept the blame.

Literature is fun, and should be taught to students from earlier stage of school. This is then as from literature, students as a person, can develop their skills in literature analysis such as poem, thus teaches them to appreciate them in their daily life. Music itself, is considered as one of the art of literature. Though always bear in mind, that literature are written works, human written works. Human are imperfect, and so does the writers/authors. The reader/listener him/herself are human, therefore, perception of each and everyone of us differs from each other.

"Start a blog" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bU4gXHkejMo)
So....i guess i am here at last, the place to express, and not impress? First post, first blogging experience - yeshh i r noop. (insert cute noop emot?)

"Start a blog" has been in my plan, for a looooong long time. I wanted to blog as I do not express much in real life? Is this retardation? Nahh..i guess it is a normal human thingy/phase/situation? If you are reading this, bear in mind that what you read here may influence you in a way, and thus I hope that it builds you in a progressive and healthy manner? and would not cause any issues or problems. We do not want that, do we?

You are what you think you are. I'm a little teapot~
>oo<

"Start a blog". I do not know how to explain it in words, probably it is my habit of procrastinating stuff. Pffftz, so, what do I procrastinate? A lot!

Can I blame you, Technology?
Can I blame you, Environment?
Can I blame you, Mindset?
Can I blame you, Myself?

Well, it is lame to play this blaming game. So do not start? Pffftz. I believe that every habit has its ways to put a fullstop. (http://www.getmoredone.com/tips2.html) Blah, easier said than done. It takes strong will, and determination to be quitting on habits that deteriorates oneself, like it is easier to talk bad about something, than expressing sincere praises and compliments to others.

"Start a blog". So here I am. Almost done with my first post. My shout-out goes to the personnel, whom has been such an inspiration for me to kill procrastination, and at least do something beneficial like blogging? Ya bah..definitely it is a beneficial thing to do since leaving secondary school. Need to write more, need to think more, need to practice more.

"Start a blog" - First but not last. >oo<
