Rose-colored boy

I hear you making all that noise

About the world you want to see

And oh, I'm so annoyed

'Cause I just killed off what was left of the optimist in me

I'm right at the end of my rope

A half-empty girl

Don't make me laugh, I'll choke

Just let me cry a little bit longer

I ain't gon' smile if I don't want to

Hey man, we all can't be like you

I wish we were all rose-colored too

I want you to stop insisting that I'm not a lost cause

'Cause I've been through a lot

Really all I've got is just to stay pissed off

Leave me here a little bit longer

I think I wanna stay in the car

I don't want anybody seeing me cry now

You say "We gotta look on the bright side"

I say "Well maybe if you wanna go blind"

You say my eyes are getting too dark now

But boy, you ain't ever seen my mind

Just let me cry a little bit longer

I ain't gon' smile if I don't want to

Hey, man, we all can't be like you

I wish we were all rose-colored too

pending DIY Project no.2

anndddddddd
here's another one.

this was done the Saturday (3rd Dec) before the Sunday (4th Dec) I went to Miri.

I've been putting off my Japan journal for so many times but that Saturday, I was feeling rajin and finally making an effort to start.
but as I was trying to make DIY pockets to attach in my current journal, I figured, my pockets will be too big for my current journal.
So I decided to make my own journal.

My sister shared me a video on FB and I watched it once before I started mine
but now when I look for it, the video was deleted.
like, *feeling so lost right now*

So, I guess, I'll just share my pictures then.

the video was actually a DIY photo album, with crafty/deco feel about it (suddenly lupa what it really calls XP)
but i figured, i could make it into a journal, however ways I want to be, right?

First, I cut off two set of manila paper as a front and back cover, making sure they are slightly bigger than a certain 'special' map.
after that I cut another smaller piece of manila card for the spine.
In the video, the lady actually used some hard board card for the cover and spice but since I don't know where I could find one here in Brunei, I just used the next best thing, manila card. they're tougher than normal paper anyway.

Next,
I attached all three paper using a colored paper (yellow), so that it'd be easier to bend.

then I used simple wrapping paper to cover the front and back.

I didn't capture the moment when I cut the paper off, only when I already wrapped them.

after that I made inner spines thingy.

the measurement was like, the bottom most is 14cm, the one after is 13.5cm, next is 13cm, after that 12.5cm and so on.
I think you can make how ever many you want. I made 16 pieces.
in the video, the lady made them with colored papers all the way but I only have a few colored papers, so I alternate mine with normal white paper.

Selepas itu, I  bend the paper like so

in the video, I'm supposed to bend like 2cm from outside edge of the paper. but what I actually did was bend the paper in half, and then bend again half on each side. 
LOL
after I finished bending, I can see where my mistakes were.
but I was lazy to amend and I began gluing these pieces to the spine.

I used double-sided tape. 
In the beginning, for the spine, I used some white glue but since it took ages to dry,
I used the double-sided tape, like the one the lady used (excessively) in the video.
turns out, her ways were a lot easier and faster LOL

few more pieces and I ran out off tape.

So, I went out to buy some. LOL sanggup~

this is the finish products.

Well, for the base, at least.

I'm supposed to attached paper on the spine. but since I havent got my Japan pictures printed yet, 
I decided to left it as it is for now.

Yatah jua tu nah. pasal 'cuci gambar' ah. putting it on and off since the day I came back from the trip.
I need to get a move on.

Karang sampai the next trip and still balum cuci yg 2016 punya.

ah well..

once again, you'll know when I finish with this. 

xD

. . .

Do you remember the time ...

remember that time

when all I ever talked about was Westlife?

yeah, that was the good time.

or the worst for you guys?

I'm sure I've mentioned it at a hundred times before that I write fictions, right?
there was one time when a friend complaint to me and she said, "cBryan saja jua eh! nada lelaki lain kh?".
I was gobsmacked and ashamed
but it didn't stop me from continuing to use 'Brian' as the main male lead in my story. ┏(＾0＾)┛┗(＾0＾) ┓

Moving on~

Yesterday, when I was on my way home, as I changed the radio channel,
I heard Uptown Girl was playing.
but it was almost finished and I whined for changing the channel a little too late.

but another Westlife song was playing after that and from just the intro, I started fangirling; squealing like I have never heard the song playing on my iphone/laptop before.
the song was Something Right. the radio station was having some double request segment of some kind.

It maybe a 'sekadar' moment for you
but listening to ANY Westlife song kena play on air is such a nostalgic moment for me.
to cut things short; Westlife is such a big part of me growing up, its bittersweet listening to someone playing/listening to their song without me asking them to. T.T

Anyhoo
how about I share with you guys the awesome-est live video concert for Uptown Girl
the best live performance for this song, in my opinion.

lets clap and sing-a-long !!



I'm not Swedish but I wish I was everytime I see this. ＼（＾○＾）人（＾○＾）／

I wanted to apologize to people that I annoyed during my Westlife phase
but you should know: I was happy with my obsession (yes, I use the word obsess coz thats what I was back then)
and every time rakan2 sebaya point out my obsession to me during a meet up or a gathering, I felt such pride in that. I don't know how else to explain my feelings but I was proud of who I was back then (with my obsession towards Westlife sahaja. not the other things)

at least when people hear Westlife, they thought of their 'crazy obsess' friend, Az Nuur. (¬‿¬)
