Yet Another Journey.

Whoa. I’ve been tagged. Uhm, how do I go about this? Just… type it out? Type it out and post it up? Okay. Well, here goes.

May 1, 1997

1) How old were you? A few months away from being 12.

2) Where did you go to school? Sek. Keb. Selayang Utama. It was too small, there were too many students, the teachers couldn’t spell the word “seventeen”, the discipline teacher had a very long and colourful criminal record, and it got on the Ministry of Education’s list for practicing racial discrimination (I swear I am not making this up). Other than those things, it was an okay school.

3) Where did you work? Sek. Keb. Selayang Utama. What, studying for UPSR wasn’t work?

4) Where did you live? Good ol’ Selayang.

5) Where did you hang out? In the living room, directly across the TV.

6) Did you wear glasses? Yeap, been wearing it since Standard 3.

7) Who was your best friend? Azlan Mokshyn. At least, I think we were best friends. We hang out a lot, we had somewhat same interests, we liked the same movies, and I always liked to hang out at his place and go through his movie collection (he had a killer stash). Does that qualify as being a best friend? Hey, what can I say? UPSR pun belum habis lagi.

8 ) How many tattoos did you have? Ooh, is that the sticker that comes inside every packet of Mamee, where you can stick it onto your skin?

9) How many piercings did you have? Gila ka? I was frickin’ scared of needles!

10) What car did you drive? Good ol’ Tamiya cars. Dash Yonkuro FTW!

11) Had you been to a real party? Yeah, a few. Involved lots of cakes. And, um, balloons.

12) Had your heart broken? Nah. Too young for that. (Same as Gan’s answer.)

April 1, 2002

1) How old were you? A few months away from being 17.

2) Where did you go to school? Sek. Men. Keb. Kepong. It was big. There were many students. I felt like an outsider. And my “friends” made sure I never forgot that fact. Yeah. That was fun.

3) Where did you work? Sek. Men. Keb. Kepong. What, studying for SPM wasn’t work?

4) Where did you live? Selayang. Not that good anymore. Definitely old.

5) Where did you hang out? In the living room (directly across the TV), or at Aaron’s place. Because I had a bitchin’ social life, you see.

7) Who was your best friend? Azlan Mokshyn (even though the bugger was already in Michigan at that time), and Aaron Andrew.

8 ) Who was your regular-person crush? Wait, did I have one? Hmm…

9) How many tattoos did you have? Thought of having one, but mummy dear threatened to disown me. So, guess that has to wait till later.

10) How many piercing did you have? Hells no. Still scared of needles.

11) What car did you drive? Mum’s Kancil, on the rare occasion that she let me use it.

12) Had you had your heart broken? I felt like an outsider every day. What do you mean “have I had my heart broken?” Oh, you mean like that? No, no, I haven’t… had my, um, heart broken. Yeah.

April 1, 2007

1) How old are you? A few months away from being 22.

2) Where do you work? Nowhere yet. Still studying.

3) Where do you live? Still in Selayang. Bad, bad Selayang.

4) Do you wear glasses? Can’t live without ‘em.

5) Where do you hang out? My friends’ hostel rooms, Cyberia, Oldtown Kopitiam at Cyberjaya… there’s no specific place, though.

6) Who is your best friend? Best friend? Used to have one. Now, I have many good friends.

7) Do you talk to your old friends? Some of them, on rare occasions. But I try to keep it to the present. My past is not something that’s filled with happy memories.

8 ) How many piercing do you have? Sorry, still none.

9) How many tattoos? Ditto.

10) What kind of car do you drive? Whatever I can get my hands on.

11) Has your heart been broken? I think so. But until now, I can never be sure.

Right, now who do I pass the torch to?

1. Fazri (because this is a subtle way to dig out a bit more of your past)

2. Fritz (saja nak ganggu )

3. Cherane (lama tak ganggu :p)

4. Veronica (start blogging already, woman!)

So, does this mean I’ll start writing again?
Well, we’ll see how it goes.
