Hello there, yeah, it has been a long long long time since I last update my blog. So how was thing going on in your life ? I've been fine here.

According to my post tonight, what happened on March 22 ? Well, if any of you reader read my tweets for the past few weeks, March 22 is a very special date for me. Why is that so ? As far as I can say, Demi Lovato came to Malaysia and held a Meet and Greet with her fans, or so called Lovatics.

Okay, summing things up, I bought the ticket that costs around 150USD. Yeah, its almost RM500 in Malaysia but, WHO CARES ? MY IDOL IS IN MALAYSIA :D

It was Friday, I went to the train station and took a train to KL Sentral. The moment I arrived, I rushed to Hilton Hotel and went up to level 7 for the Meet and Greet. There, I met Daniela, Nadia and Anna. We are the MALAYSIAN LOVATICS :D

After the Meet and Greet, I went back to KL Sentral and waited for my friends to go to KLCC for the concert.

During the concert, I sang long to every of her song, I remembered when I sang Heart Attack until my voice was lost. I can't even speak. But I kept on singing and singing. It was worth it.

So, here's the picture of me and Demi Lovato :D

I'll make a new post about why Demi Lovato is my idol.

See ya :D

Give Your Heart a Break

Demi met him a few years ago, that time, Demi was alone in the neighbourhood and was naïve about anything of the residences. He was the one who always helps her with anything that she need. One thing she love about him is that he takes great photos.

“ Jason, are you free tomorrow night ? I kinda have this dinner with someone but he had to cancel it. But the reservation is still on. Would you mind ?” Demi politely called him and leave him a voicemail. He seldom pick up his phone since he’s always busy with photo shoots and don’t want to get disturbed by phone calls.

Moments later, she received a text message by him :

Sure, I would love to. So, when should I pick you up? At eight ?

Let me check the schedule back, Demi told herself. Her finger lingered around her schedule to find the exact time of the reservation. It’s at half past eight, she typed. So you can pick me up at eight, she continue typing and tap the SEND button. Few seconds later, she got another text message by Jason, just a quick reply of ‘Ok, see you there!’ with a ‘:D’ smiley. Demi continued her work.

* * * * *

The sign was clear, Forever 21, and so did Demi. She was clear that she really need some new dress. If she didn’t buy any, she’ll probably end up in the jail of the Fashion Police. She walked politely and observed the dresses all around her. From far, one dress caught her eyes, a shirt exactly. She took it and went to find some trousers and some other dresses.

“ Miss, after the 70% discount, the total price is $270 USD.” Demi nodded and smiled to the cashier. Her name is Becky, says her nametag. Demi handed her three 100USD note and retrieve another three 10USD note. “Thank you, see you again… Becky”

It’s like her nature of post-shopping where she’ll end up being at the payment counter in Tutti Frutti. This time, she is lucky, most of the seats are unoccupied. And she got more luckier when her favourite seat is unoccupied, too !

One thing Demi loves about this froyo is that the toppings are so delicious. Caramel toppings added with Chocolate toppings and with a few pinch of Strawberry sprinkle on top of the Vanilla and Caramel flavoured frozen yogurt, it tastes like heaven ! Before she started to crazy about frozen yogurt, she’s all crazy with Godiva’s chocolate but unfortunately, the price is expensive, much more expensive than her socks.

“ Oh my god ! Demi ! I can’t believe you moved to New York already !” Demi was stunted. She recognized that voice. I bet its Camille, she said to herself. “ Camille ? Oh my god, it has been years since we last talked !”

“I thought I didn’t recognized you anymore. Where’s your red hair ? I love your dark brown hair already !” Yeah, that is totally Camille, her bestfriend in high school. “ Well, I was thinking of changing, I mean, the hair only. I am still me.” She poke her froyo spoon into her mouth.

“ So, you’re going anywhere afterwards ?” Camille sat down infront of her with her own mix of frozen yogurt. “ I’m having this dinner with a guy at eight. It’s a long story if you’d ask me.” She stared at her frozen yogurt, realizing that there’s half left. “ Well, make it short, oh wait, I’m going to leave soon, how about I call you ? Here’s my address if you want to come to my house.” Camille wrote it onto a piece of tissue with the Tutti Frutti watermark on it. “ See you soon okay ?” and she left, leaving Demi alone.

She drove her newly-bought Audi and parked infront of her apartment. From her watch, she still have an hour and a half for some makeover before Jason come to pick her up. She has decided that she will be going to wear the velvet red dress that she bought at H&M. And her clothes that she bought at Forever 21 is for her home clothes.

* * * * *

Ding-dong, her doorbell rings. From her translucent door-glass, she can see that Jason is wearing his red plaid shirt that he once said that it’s his favourite shirt. Well, its just a normal dinner, said Demi to herself.

“Hey, you’re punctual, by punctual I mean earlier than I thought you should be,” said Demi, inviting Jason into her house. “ I’m sorry if I am so early. I can wait for you if you want to.” He sounded guilty for being early, fifteen minutes earlier than the exact time, eight o’clock. “ Nevermind. I am ready anyway. Let me take my purse in my room.” She disappeared from the living room. “ Demi, I am quite surprise that you managed to redesign your living room without me,” he teased. “ Well, you were busy so I thought I have to work it out on my own. Ignore the picture of you and me. I just like it personally,” Demi explained, still, she’s not in the living room. “ I am ready now, let’s go ?” Demi smiled at him from across the living room. It’s the picture when we first met, Jason whispered to himself.

“Excuse me, I have a reservation for two under Demitria Montgomery’s name. Would you mind checking?” Demi instructed the waiter, “…James?” she continued, referring to the waiter’s nametag. “ Miss, let me bring you to your table.” Demi nodded, “ Let’s go, Jason”.

“ I wanna ask something. Actually, who are you going to meet tonight before he cancelled the dinner ?” Jason asked after ordering the dinner to the waiter. He sounded curious. “ It’s my uncle from New Jersey. It’s his birthday today but he kinda have this work issues so I have rescheduled his birthday dinner to next week. Does that answer your curiosity ?” Demi giggled. Jason smiled and drink a little bit of the wine they’ve ordered. “ Since I have this opportunity, I wanna say thank you for the dinner. No one have ever did this to me or even ask me out for a dinner.” He stopped, “ Cheers to you !” he held up his glass of wine and so did Demi.

“ Thanks again Demi for the dinner. I really appreciate it.” Jason hold her hands tight. “ It’s my pleasure. Some more, you’re busy with the magazine photo shoot and I am busy with my new summer collection designs…” she stopped, staring at Jason’s eye. For a few moments, they were in silence. Jason leaned his face to hers and there they go, the kiss.

“ Thank you. See you soon !” Jason waved and left after Demi got into her apartment. Demi smiled.

* * * * *

After that night, they always meet each other whether during lunch or even during breakfast. Sometimes, Demi cook dinner for Jason. That one day, Jason helped Demi to paint her living room’s wall from blank white to forest green. Demi smeared the green paint to Jason’s t-shirt and she giggled, they had fun painting her walls.

* * * * *

“ You just don’t believe what I told you, do you ? I was with my client for another magazine photo shoot, she invited me for lunch. She’s just my client. Why can’t you understand?” Jason said to Demi on the phone. “ Yes, I believe it is. But why won’t you believe me that day that I went out with my friend ? And she’s a girl for god sake! You just have one problem that is called trust” she murmured. “I wish I never know you” she continued. “ For god sake, Demi, I believe you did go out with Camille, yes I did. But..” he stopped, and so did Demi. She tap the END button. Moments later, her iPhone vibrated but she ignored it.

Take a deep breathe Demi, she told herself. Its just a tiny problem, you can handle it, she continued.

Jason went into his apartment and try to empty his mind. He put aside anything that has Demi in it, even their picture together. He just need some rest. He turned on his television and tuned into MTV to watch Teen Wolf.

Demi saw the picture of Jason and her in a frame. She took it out and flip it around, The Day We Met was written on the back of the picture. She smiled. Then, she went into her room and search for some more picture of Jason and her. She even dug into her photo album and took out any picture that has Jason in it. There were a total of 2540 pictures of Jason and herself that she found in the photo album. She throw all of the photo in a bag, a Coach bag to be specific.

She walked to a deserted warehouse, not so deserted since that somebody’s going to buy that building from what Jason told Demi. That warehouse is just exactly opposite of Jason’s apartment. She hung up the pictures she got onto the wall, making a big collage of pictures of her and Jason. She did it from one end to another end of the empty wall of the warehouse. It took her two hours to finish sticking the pictures to the wall. Then, she turned on her projector and projected a picture on top of the collage. It was her The Day We Met picture. She was hoping for Jason to see it.

Jason walked around his house, feeling guilty of not trusting Demi. He knew he was the one who should apologize to his girlfriend. Yes, he should. That moment he got that brilliant idea in his mind and suddenly, that brilliant idea fade away from his mind. He walked to the window while texting :

Demi, I’m so sorry of what happened during lunch time. It was my fault, yes, I can hardly trust on you but now, I know that I always trust you and I do. I love you and I am sorry…

He was going to tap the SEND button but he paused. He look out to his windows.

He blinked twice, he can’t believe what he saw. It was his picture on the warehouse’s wall. And he saw Demi left the warehouse area. And one thing he saw is that Demi smiled to him. She must’ve saw me here, he said to himself. Then, his phone vibrated :

I’ve forgive you. Please, look out to your window. I hope you’ll smile again and give your heart a break. You need it. :D

Jason smiled. And so did Demi.

The End

I just can't believe it, time do flies so fast. I remembered I was so screwed up on my first day of holidays and now, it's the first week of December already. To be honest, I am not ready for 2013. I am not ready to be a super senior. I am not ready to face SPM. I am not ready to make history. I am not ready for whatever that will happen in 2013.

Two Thousand Thirteen, it symbolises that I am growing old, growing mature, growing my physical ability, growing my mental ability, growing everything that I can to be the best of myself. All of these years during high school, I believe that I am not being myself. How I wish I can turn back the time and change everything.

Two Thousand Thirteen, it symbolises that I will have a bigger commitment in everything that I am in. No more lazy Eyman going around school doing nothing. No more making myself into someone else's troubles for the sake of saving friendship. No more being nice to everyone who will eventually backstab me when I need their help.

To make my dreams come true, I have to work hard and smart. There's no use if I keep on reading things but I did not understand it. Being someone important in my batch, I have to keep my personality clean for next year, no more hefty Eyman going here and there, mingling. I have to pass through obstacles by obstacles. Have solve one problem to another. No more procrastinating things. What should be done, must be done, vice versa. I should plan my future correctly. I want to be a chartered accountant, then I must strive for it. I want to further my studies to Australia, I have to work to make it happen. No more lazybum Eyman. Just keep on focusing.

Convincing myself about 2013,

Eyman Asyraf Masfazil

Dengan Nama Allah Yang Maha Pemurah lagi Maha Mengasihani

Assalamualaikum,

Dalam kehidupan kita seharian, Allah telah menyeru kepada kita supaya kita menunaikan solat Fardhu lima waktu, sehari semalam. Setiap kali kita selesai menunaikan solat Fardhu, kita akan berzikir lalu berdoa kepadaNya. Namun pernahkah anda terfikir bagaimana wujudnya zikir itu ?

Ketika Allah SWT menjadikan Arsy dan memerintahkan malaikat memikulnya, lalu malaikat cuba memikulnya dan terasa amat berat. Kemudian, Allah SWT menyuruh malaikat mengucapkan ‘Subhanallah’. Sebaik saja malaikat menyebutnya maka Arsy yang berat itu menjadi ringan. Lantas para malaikat membaca zikir ‘Subhanallah’ itu selama-lamanya.

Berkata Ibnu Abbas r.a “Apabila Allah SWT menjadikan Adam as maka yang pertama keluar dari mulut Adam as ialah bersin. Lalu Allah mengilhamkan kepada Adam as untuk menyebut ‘Alhamdulillah’. Sebaik saja Adam AS menyebut ‘Alhamdulillah’, lalu Allah SWT menjawab ‘ Yarhamuka Rabbuka (kerana rahmat itulah Aku menjadikan engkau). Kemudian para malaikat menggabungkan dua kalimah itu menjadi ‘Subhanallah Walhamdulillah.”

Para malaikat membaca kalimah itu sehinggalah Allah mengutuskan Nabi Noh a.s. Disebabkan kaum Nabi Noh a.s merupakan kaum yang pertama menyembah berhala maka Allah SWT mewahyukan kepada Nabi Noh a.s supaya menyuruh kaumnya mengucapkan ‘Laa illahillallah’ bagi mendapatkan keredhaan dari Allah SWT. Lalu berkata para malaikat, “Inilah kalimat ketiga yang besar dan baik dan tidak boleh kami abaikan.” Maka para malaikat pun mencantum kalimah itu dengan kalimah sebelumnya menjadi ‘Subhanallah Walhamdulillah. Walaa ilaha illallah.’

Para malaikat mengamalkan kalimah itu sehinggalah terutusnya Nabi Ibrahim a.s. Setelah terutusnya Nabi Ibrahim a.s, Allah SWT telah memerintahkan supaya Nabi Ibrahim a.s menjalankan korban anaknya yang mana akhirnya Allah SWT telah menebus anaknya dengan seekor kambing. Apabila Nabi Ibrahim a.s melihat anaknya diselamatkan oleh Allah SWT dan digantikan dengan kambing maka Nabi Ibrahim a.s melafazkan ‘Allahu Akbar’ kerana merasa terlalu gembira di atas nikmat yang dikurnia oleh Allah SWT kepadanya.

Para malaikat pun berkata, “Inilah kalimah keempat yang sungguh baik dan besar”. Kemudian para malaikat menggabungkan kalimah itu dengan kalimah sebelumnya menjadi ‘Subhanallah Walhamdulillah, Walaa ilaha illallah, Wallahu Akbar.’

Ketika malaikat Jibril a.s menceritakan kisah ini kepada Rasulullah SAW, baginda merasa kagum dan terus melafazkan ‘Laa haula wala quwwata illa billahil aliyil aziem.’ Kemudian Jibril a.s berkata, ‘Gabungkan kalimah yang empat itu menjadi satu yakni…Subhanallah walhamdulillah, walaa illaaha illallah wallahu akbar, La haula wala quwwata illa billahil aliyil aziem.’

Maka itulah bagaimana kalimah agung tersebut disatukan. Jadi, marilah kita sama-sama beramal. InsyaAllah dengan amalan ini, syurga akan menjadi milik kita, InsyaAllah.

Bersama berkongsi,

In The Name of Allah, The Most Gracious and The Most Beneficent

Assalamualaikum,

I’ve been busy studying and revising for my final year exam. If the question was made from the teachers in my school , I wouldn’t care getting near-fail result but since the question was set up by the teachers around SBP and it is the SBP Standardised Final Year Exam or so called as the diagnostics exam, I need to get as much A as possible. Just some note, I am fighting against my girlfriend to get an A for our ‘teras’ subject which are Bahasa Melayu , English 1119 , Modern Mathematics, Pendidikan Agama Islam, Sejarah and Additional Mathematics. So, eventually I have to work my hardest like I never before.

Okay, there’s an issue I’ve found recently in my ownself. I realized that I hated to much to those who always talks about their fashion trend and what would they wear if they go to any events. I honestly don’t care about them talking about it but what I do care is that , the person sometimes talk as if they are the one who’s buying using their own money. Well, I’d must say that my parents are a bit choosy in my fashion taste and what they like about my taste is that they love me wearing casual t-shirts and everything. Guess what , I never had a sneakers before and one day, I bought it without my dad’s permission and when he got to know that I bought it , he took it to our backyard and burnt it. Well, I have to say that I CAN NEVER HAVE ANY SNEAKERS. But from there, I learnt something that what my parents like of what I wear will eventually reflects about what others think about my clothes.

Conclusion is, whatever our parents like of what we do will reflects about what other people think about us.

Caught by Fashion Police,

10^th November 2012 – 2:30am – Ipoh

Assalamualaikum,

Sometimes in life, we have to sacrifice something in order to move on with our life. Sometimes, that ‘something’ we sacrifice might be our bestest thing that we got in life. In order to move on, we have to accept the fact that we are sacrificing something in our life to achieve something better. Well, it doesn’t have to be an ‘official’ ritual to sacrifice , sometimes, by saying ‘Goodbye’ , it too, can mean that we are sacrificing.

Every Hello ends with a Goodbye

That is one of the lines in Demi Lovato’s song that I’ve been listening to. It’s Catch Me sang by herself.

Today, exactly the same date and the same time, 10^th November 2012 at 2:30am, I left a friend, a best one, to pursue his dreams. He’s a Form 5 student in my school and has been a very good listener and also a very good suggester to me. He was the one who helped me in my AddMaths, Chemistry, Biology, Physics and Sejarah. How I still remembered that night before I sit for my Sejarah final year exam, I sat at the back of surau, studying with him. He told me everything that I should know about Renaissance and Reformation. Well, he’s been the top student in my school, always been the Top 3 student. Oh, his name is Wan Hafizan bin Wan Zukefli.

Let me tell you a bit of the story. I met him when I was in Form 1 at STAR as a junior in Malay Debate. He was the one who guide me through everything. Well, then it comes to UKM tournament. That moment, I was offered to be the debater in the Swing Team. He told me to be one and I got it. I was the 3^rd speaker in the team and in my first tournament, I was announced as the Best Speaker in the round. He was proud that I was once his apprentice in debate. Then, it comes to Form 3. I was struggling for my PMR. I left debate as how I left everything except my education. But it didn’t mean that I didn’t come back to debate, he asked me to come back and I did. I did improve a bit but I lost everything. He was the one who told me to stay strong. I did and I am now strong. When it comes to Form 4, he guide me through everything to become a best Form 4 student eventhough I was not the best. But now, it’s time for him to continue and pursue his dreams. Good luck in SPM, Wan !

Life in boarding school is like water was dropped out from a straw, when we blow it, it scatters everywhere. Some of them meets but some of them didn’t.

Sincerely,

Eyman Asyraf Masfazil
