On Monday, we had the usual Grace Tay but I was anticipating it. Heheh, not because I became crazy but she was gonna teach our Form 5 novel, "Konserto Terakhir" that day. We had 2 rumusan as homework that I had already completed the night before with the help of Ian hahahah. No mood do ma, of course must find help. :3
Back to Monday, we were in the middle of the lesson when she said, "Okay kelas, simpan buku dan keluarkan satu kertas kosong. Buku panjang semua letak bawah," so I thought she was gonna give us the novel notes. Mana tau Ujian Puisi omg wtf. I wasn't prepared at all okay. I took out the notes because I thought I wanted to scan through again before the test on the next day but the rumusan made me bo mood and completely forgot about it. So during her class, panic strikes of course! Okay, steadied myself and just do only la.
I guess I was one of the first ones to finish it hahaha. Kang Hua that sat beside me asked me, "怎么你写这样少?" and I replied, "她给几分?三分吧了吗。有叫你写 karangan is it?". He gaped at me and then continued to do his work hahaha. Correct ma what I said. 3 marks only, write long long for what? The most important one is the answers are accurate. I'm not saying that my answers are 100% correct but if I know the answers, I would've wrote it all out already la. Somemore wait for what? You get me a not? I know, then I know la. I don't know, means don't know la. Simple as that. If my answer's are marked wrong, then I learn from my mistakes la. Better than wasting my time just looking at that plain piece of paper and not doing anything, right? I'd rather Facebook or tweet la.
Time's up and we passed up our work. Finally! Novel! For one and a half hours or two hours, we sat there listening to her storytelling hahahha. You guys want me to explain the story here? Umm... Okay la, briefly la. Okay.
Hilmi went to look for Datuk Johari in KL to ask for help in finding a job. Pak Karim, Hilmi's dad, asked him to find Datuk Johari because they were siblings, which means that Datuk Johari should be Hilmi's uncle. When Datuk Johari saw Hilmi, it made him remember that incident in the kampung where he was forced to married a girl that was arranged by his father. He left the village after just one night with his newlywed. The girl's father was infuriated at what he did and had a big row with Datuk Johari's father. Pak Karim then volunteered to take Datuk Johari's place and marry the girl that Datuk Johari left. Back to the present, Datin Salmah, Datuk Johari's wife, who was a socialite, looked down upon him because his shirt was tattered and torn. Datuk Johari gave Hilmi a job as his gardener and his accomodation was a shed behind the bungalow with the other workers. Hilmi was very good with his job that the flowers he grew bloomed very beautifully and they were made as gifts to Datin Salmah's friends. Then he noticed that they had a giant piece of land in the backyard, so he decided to plant vegetables. He reared chickens too so from then on, they need not buy vegetables or eggs anymore. Dr. Nathan, the neighbour praised Hilmi for doing such a wonderful job and asked Datuk Johari how much did he paid him. Datuk Johari was ashamed because he only paid Hilmi RM20 a month. Hilmi loved to listen to Hayati, Datuk Johari's daughter, play the piano, so he would always find something to do that is near Hayati's piano so he could hear her play. One day, when they were all out, Hilmi went to touch her piano. He was scolded by Mak Minah, the maid, and was then sent out of the house. Hayati and Datin Salmah came home and when Hayati went to play the piano, she realised that the piano's sound was wrecked. She cried and Datin Salmah wanted to know who was the culprit that spoilt the piano, so Mak Minah had no choice but to say the last person that touched the piano, was Hilmi. Datin Salmah fell into a rage and punished him by cutting his pay and gave him a stern warning not to touch the piano ever again. After some time, Datin Salmah told Hilmi that they were gonna go on a vacation for a month in Europe, Mak Minah and the other workers were going back to their kampung so he will be all alone. Hilmi was sad and he whispered to himself and the flowers in the garden about how he'll miss Hayati. He eventually became friends with the neighbour's driver, Mamat. Mamat introduced him to En. Bakar, a music teacher, because Hilmi told him that he was interested in music. En. Bakar agreed to teach him free of charge because Hilmi was talented. En. Bakar had a daughter named Azizah. She looked down upon Hilmi, too when he told her he was just a gardener. Hilmi watched the house very well while the family was away and he would use Hayati's piano to practise. One day, while he was playing the piano, he didn't realise that Datin Salmah and Hayati was behind him. Datin Salmah was furious but Hayati did not allow Datin Salmah to disturb Hilmi because she was admiring his music. Hayati gave Hilmi a musicbox she bought from Europe that was supposed to be a present for Mohsin, Hayati's fiance. Hayati started to notice Hilmi more because of his talent in music. Datin Salmah was worried about the situation so one day, she blamed Hilmi for something and told him to go to the shed after finishing his work without dinner. Mak Minah felt sympathy for Hilmi so she brought in food for him but he turned down her kindness. She went to search for Hayati and Hayati came in to coax him to eat, too. He finally succumbed and accepted the food that she willingly fed him. The punishment became more and more brutal that he could not take it anymore so he asked Mamat to help him write a letter to Datuk Johari that says Pak Karim is ill so he has to go back to kampung. Datin Salmah happily gave him a one-way bus ticket back home and so, he set off. Hayati did not know anything about this. All the while on Hilmi's journey, his mind was only focused on one thing: Hayati. He regretted his decision so he left the bus and scurried back to KL. He settled for a job in a Shell fuel station situated in Jalan Setapak that pays him RM2.50 per day. Mohsin bumped into Hilmi at the gas station one day and he threatened the tauke of the station to fire Hilmi or he would never set foot on this Shell station anymore. The boss ignored his threat and would rather lose Mohsin as a customer than a hardworking worker like Hilmi. Hilmi decided to learn music again with En. Bakar. En. Bakar was thrilled that Hilmi was back and he taught him very sternly. Everytime Hilmi did a mistake, he would knock his fingers with a wooden ruler. When Hayati found out that Hilmi was gone, she changed into a completely different person. She alienated herself from her parents. Her family was not devoted to religion before so she was not committed to God but after Hilmi left, she started to pray and became a more religious person. Time began to passed as Hilmi composed his first song, "Intermeso" whereas Hayati failed her Lower Certificate Education(LCE). Hilmi quit his job at the petrol station and became a member of a quartet that played in Hotel Titiwangsa, which was led by En. Bakar. One day as Hilmi was flipping the newspaper, he saw a notice which was about Hayati's marriage to Mohsin. He became depressed and isolated himself in his room whenever the quartet finishes its job in the hotel. Hayati requested Mamat to take her to see Hilmi one last time before she heads off to London to pursue her studies in music. Hilmi and Hayati made a promise to stay as best friends, and then she left. That night, Hilmi succeeded in writing another song entitled, "Detik-detik Perpisahan". Some time later, when the quartet was about to perform their daily routine in Hotel Titiwangsa, En. Bakar received a letter from the secretary of Persatuan Pemain-pemain Muzik Nasional that ordered him to kick Hilmi out of the quartet at once or his contract with the hotel would be suspended and the quartet's license would be taken away. The members of the quartet, except Hilmi, had a discussion about the situation. They concluded that they didn't give a damn and were willing to risk it all, so they continued with the performance. En. Bakar was excused by the Persatuan Pemain-pemain Muzik Nasional because he was one of the pengasas of the association. Hilmi later married Azizah and they had a son named Hakim. His wife couldn't stand Hilmi so she made a flit with her son to her father's house. En. Bakar tried to help Hilmi persuade her daughter to go back home but to no avail. Hilmi gave up when he heard his son spoke, "Bapa jahat,". Hilmi eventually left the quartet and joined an orchestra. His orchestra was invited to play in conjuction with Keputeraan Sultan Kelantan. In the morning after he finished the performance, En. Bakar exhaled his last breath. The song, "Seniman", was composed specially to remember En. Bakar. Hilmi then established a band that was given the name, "Kugiran Dahlia". He won many achievements, including international recognition after that and was given a chance to perform in front of Yang Dipertuan Agong, menteri-menteri and other elites. On the night of the performance, Hilmi did not show up. The Ketua Pengarah RTM was frantic and went to search for Hilmi at his house. He then found out that Hilmi wasn't able to perform because he fell into a coma after he tripped outside his house. The director was desperately seeking for a person to replace Hilmi when a woman volunteered to take his place. That woman was Hayati. She knew every single song of Hilmi's because he has been sending her his music. The performance ended and everyone - Datuk Johari, Datin Salmah and Hayati - rushed to the hospital. Datuk Johari felt bad when he saw Pak Karim there, too. Pak Karim thanked Datuk Johari because he had been receiving letters from Hilmi about how he was treated very good and was happy in Datuk Johari's care. Datuk Johari felt even more guilty when he heard that. Pak Karim then told Datuk Johari a huge secret that he has kept for a very long time: Hilmi was actually Datuk Johari's son. He didn't want to break Datuk Johari's household so he took care of Hilmi after he was born. Datuk Johari was stunned and could not utter a single word because he was too shocked. Datin Salmah felt guilty, too after she realised that she had ill-treated her stepson. They went home and when they just stepped out of the car, Mak Minah shouted, "Telefon! Telefon!". Datuk Johari rushed to accept the call at once. It was a call from the hospital. "Hilmi telah meninggal dunia," whispered the other end of the line. Datuk Johari could not accept the fact and died instantaneously.
That was the synopsis of the novel. I know you might think it's long but c'mon! The novel is almost 300 pages thick. I summarised it already okay. The ending was damn unexpected right?! The story is so much more better than the Form 4 one. It's really quite saddening, and to think that Hayati and Hilmi almost committed incest. Wow. The author really is mind-manipulative. Really enjoyed listening to Grace Tay perform the various actions and sound hahaha.
That's the end of Monday's stuff. Tuesday! Oh my gawd, Tuesday. Another long day hahaha, but this one, I relished so very fondly. Heheh. I was going to Setia City Mall with Ian because he said his gramps could fetch me there. CBS, Jazelyn and the other gang was going, too to celebrate Zi Shan's birthday. I waited so long for him and I got a little impatient because I haven't had anything to eat yet. When I was finally in his gramps' car, my stomach must've eaten itself because I wasn't feeling very hungry anymore. Ian apologised and offered me Tiger biscuits hahaha. 算你啦.XD
I was taking my first bite when he snuck something in my bag.
I know what you guys are thinking, but no. I'm clarifying here and now, we are not together. I don't know about the future but for now, no. We are friends. :)
It was so sweet of him though. Hehehe. It's also my first time owning a Sticky myself. So thoughtful of him, right? It's the little things he does that makes him so lovable. I know, I know, we're not together. Clarifying it again. Okay later on, I'm gonna post many photos of me and him from Tuesday. It's only of him and me because we didn't walk with CBS they all. We only walked together. I know, I know, clarifying again that we are not together. Bear that in mind okay? Okay!
We reached there after 11.30am and CBS, Evelyn and another 2 were already there at Carl's Jr. so Ian and I went to find them first. I was in a high-waist shorts and tucked-in white tee while he was in his red shorts and button-down white shirt. He wanted us to wear same colour shirt, so.... Hahahha. I brought my beanie, sunglasses and a few other stuff in my brand new Charles & Keith bag. After meeting up with them, both of us went to the cinema to buy tickets to watch Battle of The Year at 1.10pm while they went to the bowling arena. Then later me and Ian went to Kissaten (finally!) for our brunch hahaha.
We ordered the burger spaghetti thing. It's pork! :)
Of course, the Teriyaki Pork Burger, too! :D
We also ordered the Green Tea Pot for 2. Both of us shared these two meals and the drink which altogether, costs us almost RM50. I paid my fair share of RM25 okay. I don't kit jia like Ian hahahaha!!! XD
He said he looked like Jordan Koh's brother, Brandon Koh, in this picture hahaha! Dude, you're so narcissistic. Just stay as Ian la. :3
He took the bunny headband from a box filled with stuffs they prepared for the customers. Hahahha. Aren't the bunny ears cute? XD
After that we went to the bowling alley to find CBS they all since there was still some time left before the movie starts. There, we saw Ian's gramps and Ian asked me to stay by the pool table while he go find his granddad. Luckily we reached there in time hahaha. After spending some time with the group, we headed off to the cinema, just across the bowling place. :)
We were both full but he just had to buy popcorn and a drink hahaha. Nehmind la heheh. We went inside the cinema and saw this:
Nobody was in omg. We sat laughing hysterically and talking about some shits when people started to come in. Oh well, hahaha. I complained that he chose a bad seating place so we moved over to the centre afterwards hahah. Battle of The Year was nice. Chris Brown starred in it and the main actor was hot. Hahhahahah. Hot guys + B-boy dancing = (Y)
After the movie, we went walking around the mall and entered shops like H&M, Uniqlo and Machines. We didn't shop, no. Bo lui la. Siao meh? Actually, he entered Machines alone. I, as an Android user, did not dare to step into such a prestige shop. So, I stood outside the shop. I didn't know he came out already until suddenly I saw a figure beside me and guess what? He took pictures hahaha!
I turned around and then:
Hahahaha. Funny candid. It was CBS who insisted that I wore the beanie when I met with the group in Carl's Jr. I guess it suits me? :)
Later on, we went to DAISO and we bought some stuff hahah. RM5 so it's affordable la. :D
I saw the pink ear muffs that day, so I bought it! He bought 2 other bags to keep his power bank and his phone. :)
Then, we went to Starbucks. I know I had a complimentary grande still not redeemed, so I wanted to drink it there. The counter guy said he'll check for me, and mana tau, I actually had 2 free ones! Hahaha. I asked whether it's possible to only take one drink and they say it's okay, so I only ordered one. :)
We shared the Grande Caramel Frappe and went outside to the park. It was still freaking hot so we went over to the space that has a canopy on top but there were so many freaking bees the size of a lemon, so we moved on further and settled down at a shady area and sat on the bench there.
I managed to take a great picture with my camera at first try! Hahahah.
Then we chat for a while, drank the coffee, and when the sun was not as glaring hot as before, we went walking around the park. There was a very nice opening at the top of a tall, circular hedge.
Mesmerizingly stunning, isn't it?
Stood up on the bench to take this photo that overlook the mall.
The flowers bloomed so gloriously at its peak.
Narcissistic lil' goof hahaha.
I guess you can say, he's my model of the day? (;
Though it may not be clear at the front, but no stones no pebbles should stop you.
The breeze blew strong and mighty, but who cares about hair? XD
A little editing and:
The only thing that mattered, was him.
He kept insisting that he looks great in all the photos hahaha.
Too much time on my hands so:
Asked him to show me his swag face and he gave me this. Hahahha!!! This is cute la, not dope. :3
I, on the other hand.... Not so much. .___.
At least I try. :)
And try again :D
Skater dudes...
.... that caught me capturing their photos. :X
I think I looked a lil' like Kwang Soo here HAHAHAHHA.
With shoes, or not with shoes?
His smile is the brightest. :)
I look to You...
.... just to say, Thank You, for everything.
I finally took out my shades and mana tau he go and wear. The price tag still there lols omg hahahah!!!! XD
Jae Suk!
The reflection is beautiiful and it's not even filtered! :D
Yes, we held hands.
Then we lied on the grass for a little while longer before going back into the mall to meet up with CBS they all. Both of us went to the toilet and then CBS told Ian that they were at the playground. They played for a little while and then Ian's dad called. He was gonna fetch all of them to Momo for dinner. We quickly rushed in and Ian insisted that we take a photo at the bench there with the Christmas tree and CBS also wanted us to take a photo at the Christmas tree so...
It was rush-ie but still nice. :)
They left and I waited for another 10 to 20 minutes for my mum to fetch me home. I would've joined them for dinner but I had Chemistry tuition so, yeah. I know some pictures seems a bit "too friendly" but yes, I'm single.
I finally finished Tuesday!
I talked about Wednesday a little in the last post: Just Physics tuition and Bio class was off until next year. Gonna replace my Sejarah class with Ian on Friday's class. :)
Today arh, umm... Add Maths class with Mr. Low lo. He talked about motivational stuff and excellent student stories for close to an hour and a half. Wow. Lian Qi, CBS and I skipped last week's lesson so we had to take the new chapter's notes and had to catch up with the pace too. Then three of us went to mamak after class and went home around 6pm plus.
Just now, while Skype-ing with Ian, I wanted to take a screenshot. 10 plus attempts later:
I think this was the best one hahahha.
I actually promised him I'd sleep before 3.45am and he permitted me to stay up later but must before 4am. Sigh... Now it's already almost 5am. I'm sorry. T_T
I just brushed my teeth and I'm gonna sleep now. Better late than never, right? :)
Looking forward to eating dinner with Ian again after Maths class tomorrow!
Goodnight and sweet dreams!
- Sorry readers but it might be a bit confusing to you guys about my timing because technically speaking, it's already Friday but to me, it's still counted as Thursday until I sleep and wake up in the morning (afternoon, mostly hahaha). So, just to clear things up, I will always type my post at night or midnight. Please don't get it mixed up when I write about the days, okay? Hope that all of you understands. I really gotta sleep now or he'll skin me alive.GOODNIGHT~ ^_^
