I think for the past week, this picture somewhat decribes part of the state I've been in. Pic by Shermen Mukhtar for KLue Magazine.

I begin to think, if my little sister’s mission in life, is to do all that she does, at a slower pace. By the time I conclude my thought on this, I hope she’s finished doing what she was. Yesterday.
Merdeka Train Party Interview by Shazmin Shamsuddin at BFM
This 31st August, through RA, I am part of a team organising an event for Merdeka. It was out in the papers yesterday and today. This morning I had an interview with Business FM 89.9. In an hour, with XFresh FM 103.0. Tomorrow, on the NTV7 Breakfast Show. Another morning show has yet to confirm.
I don’t particularly enjoy talking about it, putting it out there, as I did today, as I have in the past. (As with the existence of this website.) The attention that inevitably includes me on a personal sphere, I admit, is a sensation I am not comfortable with. But by being so and doing so, more people get to know about the projects I am part of, which are mostly in essence perpetually inviting public participation.
I imagine they are transporting food.
A day after I was on the kitchen floor of someone’s house inspecting the clueless and unsuspecting base and destination of a trail of ants, the same thing started taking place on my desk at home- between my laptop and a pile of papers. At lost at the irony, I asked where they were going. Came the reply,
Nowhere mate. :)
RA+D : The reason for the MoU.
.
A recent deal I had closed, a kind that was a first for me, required me to draft a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). Having seen it once or twice in and out of law school, I started from scratch. As I was painfully completing the first draft, I decided to send one of the parties to the MoU (who was waiting for it) a text.
You know, I like how drafting this MoU/contract is intellectually challenging. I love that feeling. But it’s also probably the same reason why I didn’t want to be a fckng lawyer. Sigh. It shall be with you soon.
.
Together with the PR company & Interact Club Sri Garden, here are the four parties to that MoU = RandomAlphabets.com + Delicious + SPCA Selangor + Federal Territories Amateur Gymnastics Association. First time everyone got together. Same place, same time.

I was meant to stop working an hour ago, sleep and continue at 6.30am. Now it’s 2am, as I prep to sleep, I am dancing alone to this song.
-Facebook & Twitter update

I have just spent about the last 45minutes trying to fall asleep. During which, to assist myself, I tried reading a book, turning on the air-conditioning system and then finally jotting down to-do notes and ideas in my handphone, before trying again for a few more minutes. It is now 3.11am and I finally conceded that it’s best to just get back to work and stay up till sahur, instead of getting a lousy two hour.
…I just noted the link of the title of this post, to the song and my present situation.

First trip, March 2004. That is not where 'HD' came from.
.
Three weeks ago I was in Bali for the second time. The primary purpose of my trip was to surf again there. At least on three occassions, I was hit by a wave, gone under not knowing how long will it take for the current to pass while I spun upside down for a round or two.
I came back to KL late night and the next morning went to visit my cousin, her husband and daughter from Europe who were in KL for a few days. A few hours later, they left KL for Singapore and for Bali the following day with four of their friends.
One in their group, drowned and passed away.
.
A week ahead without such privilege will be easy. I imagine.
Sorry. For the dog & bone time that seems to keep us up for hours on end.
This can be quite useful right now.
