SIN XIA POH

Hey guys welcome to Sin Xia Poh...
(..what? not Singapore meh... no, no it's Sin Xia Poh leh..)

Here's a scenario of my conversation on the phone with this lady named Jocelyn while trying to enquire her about a job post in the Straits Times...

(calling Jocelyn, ring ring... ring...)
aRy: Hi good afternoon, is that Jocelyn on the line?
Jocelyn: (mumbled) Alo.. Alo.. Alo..
aRy: (repeating my line again) Hi, is that Jocelyn on the line?
Jocelyn: Alo yah.. You who? I Jocelyn.

(okay well, she sounds more like an 'ah soh' rather than a lady whom I expected for a professional designer to talk)

aRy: Oh hi Jocelyn, this is aRy. I'm kind of interested on the job post that your company advertised on the Straits Times. May I know if the position is still open for an interview?
Jocelyn: (she seems confused) Huh? What? Oh you want the design job one ah?
aRy: Yah that's right. I was referring to the Graphic Designer post.
Jocelyn: (within a split second) You from Singapore ah?
aRy: Yes, I'm a Singaporean. A graduate from Nanyang Academy Of Fine Arts.
Jocelyn: You chinese ah?
aRy: (trying my best to be patient) Oh no. I'm a malay guy over here.
Jocelyn: You malay, you know how to talk chinese or not?
aRy: (getting irritated) Sorry. I'm afraid that I'm not able to speak mandarin.
Jocelyn: Aiya than how ah..
aRy: Sorry?
Jocelyn: Because ah here all chinese people want. We talk English lor but I think....
........TOOOOT
-the line went dead-
(The stupid bitch didn't get to finish her sentence. I hanged up on her)

*No offence to all the readers. I'm not racist but I just couldn't tolerate with such nonsence.

ROCKABYE MUMMY...

Rockerbye mummy on a tree top...
When she sits on it nobody can stop..

Bought mama the rocking chair that she been wanting since last year. Luckily IKEA has their stocks this time round.
She seems happy and it's like a routine for her now to sit on it while watching the google box in the late evening.

Well, I guess it's one of the best birthday present that she ever received from me. hehe

love you mama. muaaaccks!

A FINE DAY

Drop by at Fida's working place after the job interview. It's been awhile since I have updates about her and the rest of my dancing crews. We talk crap for few minutes before rushing to meet Faizal at his new office. So nice to see her smile and seems like there's lot of hot stories for her to share.

A big shout out to D.A.S.Hians who are reading this. I miss you guys so much.

Anyway, Faizal's office was abit cramppy but yet he has his own desk to start with all those grahic art works. Love those hanging postcards on the walls and the i-mac that he's using. I adore your boss for doting on u so much.

Oh yah, thanks again for the dinner treat (the fish soup is marvellous!). We got to meet again some other day MR DIMPLE. :)

AGAIN?

It happened again...

Why me?

"You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else."

HEART

Went to catch the movie 'Heart', with mama and sis just now. It was good. I wonder if there's such real romantic couple in life acted by Irwansyah and Nirina Zubir.

Why love if losing hurts so much?

....................

"love is about expressing,
love is about togetherness,
love is about sharing
when you love someone, you learn,
But at times you have to let it go and move on
coz love is about making sacrifices"

"...bila kita mencitai yang lain, Mungkinkah hati ini akan tegar,

Sebisa mungkin, tak akan pernah,

sayangku akan hilang..."

PERFECTION

Dedicated to all 'perfectionist' out there;

Congratulations!

You're not perfect! It's ridiculous to want to be perfect anyway. But then, everybody's ridiculous sometimes, except perfect people. You know what perfect is? Perfect is not eating or drinking or talking or moving a muscle or making even the teensiest mistake. Perfect is never doing anything wrong - which means never doing anything at all.

Perfect is boring! So you're not perfect! Wonderful! Have fun! Eat things that give you bad breath! Trip over your own shoelaces! Laugh! Let somebody else laugh at you! Perfect people never do any of those things. All they do is sit around and sip weak tea and think about how perfect they are. But they're really not one-hundred-percent perfect anyway. You should see them when they get the hiccups! Phooey! Who needs 'em? You can drink pickle juice and imitate gorillas and do silly dances and sing stupid songs and wear funny hats and be as imperfect as you please and still be a good person.

Good people are hard to find nowadays. And they're a lot more fun than perfect people any day of the week.

ME, SIS AND MAMA

Let the pictures do the talking...

Me, sis and mama. Loving together and forever.

OLD PYJAMAS

Was cleaning up my huge three sliding doors wardrobe and came across this old pyjamas pants of mine.Thought mama threw it away.

It's been ages. Haha with the cartoon prints on it and etc.

Well, I decided to wear it to bed tonight!

Now I feel like I'm back to my sweet 16. Hahaha Good night everyone!

MAKEOVER?

Me and Shahrin on the day of the job interview.
Can't believe that I was in this attire.
But, hey I don't think I look bad either with the tie. Haha
I'm a grown up man now!

REASONS FOR EVERYTHING

For everything there is a season,

And a time for every matter under heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die;

A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;

A time to kill, and a time to heal;

A time to break down, and a time to build up;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh;

A time to mourn, and a time to dance;

A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;

A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to seek, and a time to lose;

A time to keep, and a time to throw away;

A time to tear, and a time to sew;

A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate,

A time for war, and a time for peace.

NAIVE

Just when I thought everything seems to be right.
But no, I was wrong.
Everything seems to be falling apart now.



I discover this meaning in life in three different ways: (1) by doing a deed; (2) by experiencing a value; and (3) by suffering.

I'm so naive.
Wake up aRy...

NERVOUS AND EXCITED!

Going for a major job interview this saturday.
It's killing me.
The butterflies in my stomach triggers my excitement.

Been a long time since I had this feeling.

Anyway,
it's so nice of mama to fork out hundreds of dollars so that I could get my teeth done. Yes! The filling need to be done. Time to say goodbye to my 'MADONNA' teeth. The appointment with the dentist will be on this friday. I hope everything will go smoothly.

I'm sure mama did this beacause she wants me to look good on that day... :)
I pray hard not to screw the interview.
I hope to make mama proud.

Love you mama. Always and forever

NO CHOICE?

Love is a choice you make from moment to moment.

I believe that we are solely responsible for our choices, and we have to accept the consequences of every deed, word, and thought throughout our lifetime.

We can try to avoid making choices by doing nothing, but even that is a decision.


.................gosh, i hate this feeling

TORN

Wanting to be loved.
But afraid of getting hurt again.

Its hard to trust when the truth is out there looking at my eyes.
I'm depressed and tormented apart...

THE DREAM

Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves. Then we would have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes.

I woke up this morning and realised that it's only a dream.
A weird dream which I never expected it to be.
A dream that left a million of question marks.

It's been a while since I have you in my dreams.
Did you just smiled at me?
Yes you did...
the curve smile of yours which used to sets everything straight.
It was so dark.
Just the both us staring and admiring our beautiful smiles.
A serene environment which was captivating.
I can feel those cold air brushing through my skin.
You are there sitting beside me on this old rusty chair with your head resting on the table.
There you smiled again..
Wonderful..

Was it really you?

............................

Some people said that dreams are only thoughts you didn't have time to think about during the day.They are illustrations... from the book your soul is writing about you. It is a free therapy which you can only get appointments at night.

....(I always pay attention to my dreams - God's angels often speak directly to our hearts when we are asleep)....

I believed that God is closest to those with broken hearts.
Maybe part of loving is learning to let go because love is like a puzzle. When you're in love, all the pieces fit but when your heart gets broken, it takes a while to get everything back together.

MY SIN BOOK

Yeah!

I got it!

I own it!

The note book.

The Sin Book.

It's hard to get a peaceful sleep since my eyes set on it. Love those graphics and the diamond studs on its cover.

I thank you for the gift.

It was really nice and sweet of you.

To MizRina (if you're reading this):

Sorry girl, I own it. Hahaha

You got to buy something different now...

TIJAH

Something hillarious to share with all the malay friends out there.
(it's a forward email that I received recently)

Enjoy...

......................................................................

BE YOURSELF

Words to share with everyone out there...

"You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.
You're on your own.And you know what you know.
You are the guy who'll decide where to go."

~Dr. Seuss

ROOM MINI-TOUR

Here's how my room looks like right now. These are taken with a 2 megapixel camera phone, so please excuse for the bad quality..

A closer look on what's on the television display.

Tadaaaaa! Stack of MENS FOLIO and STYLE magazines. I'm obsessed with Fashion Photography & Graphic. Great help for me to get ideas from.

A closer look on what's on top of my desk. And finally, my playground... haha

That's all for now... Good night everyone!

BEAUTY

Unity and simplicity are the two true sources of beauty.

It comes as much from the mind as from the eye.

My prints entitled; BEAUTY

Feel free to drop comments if you have any

"We ascribe beauty to that which is simple; which has no superfluous parts; which exactly answers its end; which stands related to all things; which is the mean of many extremes." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

IN SILENCE...

Dedicated to a friend,
this is for him,
you know who you are.

The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be only the beginning...
When love is lost, do not bow your head in sadness; instead keep your head up high and gaze into heaven for that is where your broken heart has been sent to heal.

There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, and people we can't live without but have to let go.


We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey.


Don't fight with the pillow, but lay down your head
And kick every worriment out of the bed.
If you can't sleep, then get up and do something instead of lying there worrying. It's the worry that gets you, not the lack of sleep.

ps; Don't keep us in silence
Tell us what really happened
We miss you......

"Shared joy is a double joy; shared sorrow is half a sorrow"

PISSED

stop vituperating me

do not exacerbate me with your words

you're not a man

you're imbecile

you're coward

fuck you

GROSS!

Was walking my way back home last night when all of a sudden I felt the urge of having a fag. So there I am smoking under my void deck happily when...

a scary thing happened. Some old malay happy guy flirted with me. God, its weird and scary! So here's the story...

me; *sitting on the bench smoking my last few puff*
him; *walking towards me* "hi are you alone?"
me; "yes i am, why?"
him; "why are you smoking alone?"
me; "coz my friends are not here" *duh*
him; "you stay at this block?"
me; "nope" *points at the opposite block few metres away* (i have to lie)
him; "what is your name?"
me; "hakim" *smiles* (i have to lie)
him; "i'm saiful, you have nice arms. I think you look great wearing this sleeveless top"
me; "why thank you. i am flattered!" *gettin irritated*
him; "so, do you have a fag to spare me?"
me; "no. this is my last stick. i'm sorry."
him; "it's okay, so will you be here tomorrow night? " *winks*
me; "i don't think so"
him; "well, you should. then maybe we can chat. is there anyway i can contact you?"
me; "well ... no. sorry."
him; "but, isn't that your mobile?" *pointing to my mobile which was on the table* (SHIT!)
me; "nope, it's my mom's. sorry i need to go now, she's waiting for me. bye" *cheeky smile*
him; "can i send you to your block"
me; " it's okay, i can walk by myself" *moving away from him immediately* (getting scared)

It was indeed one of the scariest moment that I encountered. However I wanted to laugh so badly throughout the whole thing! haha! stupid guy! He smells like a pig! Terrible! Gross!

He isn't even rich or good looking! and ofcourse even if I'm happy, he would be way out of my list! LOL

DAYDREAMING

I am only one,
But still I am one.
I cannot do everything,
But still I can do something.
And because I cannot do everything
I will not refuse to do
The something that I can do.

I'm doing what I think I was put on this earth to do.
I'm really grateful to have something that I'm passionate about and
that I think is profoundly important.


"...Yesterday I dared to struggle. Today I dare to win..."


To accomplish great things, I must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe. I have learned, that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.

FLAVA

Talk about dance? Dance is not something to talk about. Dance is to dance. Dance is my passion, and Hip Hop is the flavour...

Here's a print of my work entitled; FLAVA.

Feel free to drop comments if you have any.

...The truest expression of a people is in its dance and in its music. Bodies never lie. It is a song of the body. Either of joy or pain. Hence it is a delicate balance between perfection and beauty..."

CHE CHE LA LA!

Someone tought me a new slang.
It's called 'che che la la'.
Cute isn't it?
Fell in love with that word.

Here how it goes,

(on the mobile with mummy dearest) aRy: "Mama I need our chauffer to send me back home now and please inform the masage therapist to get my feets done in the limousine too alrite! I'm too shag so please don't blame me for being so 'che che la la' today. Thanks.."

LOL

..ok that was lame......Blwwweeeekk!

BACKSTAGE

It's back for season 2! Backstage, the annual gathering cum party are happening again this year. It rock last year with people having booze, fags and junk foods all night long, chilling and bullshitting together with the beautiful crowd who are so spontaneously fun and happening. I love it. It's where the hunks, beauties and happy gathered.

I wonder what's the theme for this year Backstage. It was 'Skin deep' last year, and we had so much fun doing the photoshoot...

.............................................

Miss "Spore's Next Over The Top Model"

Miss "Come And See My Smooth Armpit Model"

Mr "Don't Know What Else To Pose"

Mr "Local Boy George"

Miss "7 Inch Cleavage"

Mr "Hunky Hanyut"

Mr "Brief Model Cannot Make It"

SEXY LIPS?

Let us be grateful to the mirror for revealing to us our beautiful and ugly appearance. They are God's gift to us and I think our whole life shows in our face and we should be proud of that.

No one is perfect... that's why pencils have erasers. Well, even at times if the comments that were given by that someone are hillarious or as the matter of fact, it's ridiculous..
To me, a smile is always an inexpensive way to change your looks. I've never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful regardless how thick, thin or sexy your lips are. Always remember to be happy because you never know who's falling in love with your smile. If you don't start out the day with a smile, it's not too late to start practicing for tomorrow. It takes a lot of work from the face to let out a smile, but just think what good smiling can bring to the most important muscle of the body... the heart.

Someone commented something about my lips the other day. Was it really sexy or was it just my smile? Either ways, I'm taking that as a compliment and I'm proud of what I have on my face.

Thus, do I have a sexy lips?... Well, it matters more to me what's in my face than what's on it.

NOT JUST AN ACQUAINTANCE

Him, his wife and his sex buddy! LOL

"....I am proud that we can actually walk side by side, think alike and share what we have gone through together...just the two of us crying and sharing what we feel from the bottom of our hearts, drowning our sorrows in clubs...never regret knowing you even though sometimes we have our differences...love is always there for you in me and as a brother and a friend I will always be there for you when you need me... Take care and...."

Those words were from him. A friend. A bond which I've gained enough to call him that. Infact he's actually a 'new' friend that I've gained recently. I believed that depth of a friendship does not depend on the length of acquaintance.

People said that old friends are always best and its highly impossible for you to catch a new one that really fit well with them. I think I've proved them wrong. I've managed to catch a new one and I'm really proud of it.
"To me,it's the friend that you can call at 4am, that matters."

Thus,I conclude that a friendship is a single soul that dwells in two bodies and that communication between them is as stimulating as black coffee.
Let us be grateful to a friend who make us happy as they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom!

MY DIVA

If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do in my design, art and dance, then in that respect you can call me that... I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.

Here's one of my work entitled; DIVA
Feel free to drop comments if you have any.

"A Diva is a character trapped inside a woman's body which is known for her strong self confident."

FATHER'S DAY?

Family life is full of major and minor crises; the ups and downs of health, success and failure in career, marriage, and divorce; all kinds of characters. It is tied to places and events and histories. With all of these felt details, life etches into memory and personality. It's difficult to imagine anything more nourishing to the soul.

The day arrived. As expected no phone calls were made. Not even a single word were uttered from both parties. The man felt that it was unnecessary for him to pick up the phone to call his father. To even wish him as simple as that. The man think it is very hard for him to say the exact truth, even about his own immediate feelings- much harder than to say something fine about them which is not the exact truth.

The man didn't blame his father. It's all history. History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but faced with courage, need not be lived again.

"it doesnt matter who my father was; it matters who you remember he was."

But if the relationship of father to son could really be reduced to biology, the whole earth would blaze with the glory of fathers and sons.
