Purple Squirrel.

I used to have a friend back in primary school who got an A+ on her coloring homework where she chose purple to color a picture of a squirrel. Our teacher was clapping happily looking at that purple squirrel but everyone in that class was quiet.

I smirked. I despised that purple-colored squirrel because I thought it didn’t make sense at all.

Why purple? Why not brown, black or at least white? (she should just leave the paper blank to give a white color to that squirrel because it would look much better than purple.haha). It’s not that I hated purple, I just needed a logic reason why the teacher was so happy to see a squirrel in purple because it’s not supposed to be in purple, you know. Even a ‘purple squirrel’ is not purple. I digressed.

And for mine, I chose brown and I did color the picture with some shadings of black, much better than she did. Whoahaha.

Really, it wasn’t I who said it, but all the other classmates did. And I got B+, you know. It was so frustrating. Actually I was just too curious to know the logic reason why it is acceptable to pick purple for a squirrel so that next time I would feel free to pick green to color a picture of a cat. ( Green Cat. Yay! ).

So I kept asking myself and kept wondering about it. Sadly, I didn’t get any answer.

But now, being a student in creative field has made me understand that most typical ideations are the first things that should be rejected if you want to be creative and highlighted. So it’s like, choosing brown for a squirrel is so typical, while choosing weird color like purple for a squirrel can be considered as creative. Perhaps.

Anyway it also makes me believe that even if there’s something in this life that doesn’t look believable, logical or sensible to the majorities, it’s not impossible that it can still give sense to others and work perfectly for the special minorities who can actually see things from different perspectives and learn how to appreciate them.

Life is full of wonders for people who always see things from different angles.I guess.

But I still don’t like that purple squirrel. It was just. Weird.

. . .

Anyhoo, I just got to know that there is actually a purple squirrel found at a school somewhere in UK last year (2008) and everyone thought that it was an absolute mystery and doubted whether the animal has fallen into purple paint, had a run-in with some purple dye, had chewed a purple catridge or whether there is another explanation.
(Go google yourself).

I got to spare a thought for the more brightly decorated mammals next time. :P

Classic

I was just searching for Film & Animation videos on Youtube which led me to this classic animation.

Classic isn’t it?

I remember watching this when I was 4 or 5 years old and I used to pity that sang buaya instead of the cow.
ha ha

And another (local) animation I liked was the one with a monkey eating chillies. Do you remember? The one with, “Jaaaangan monyetttt~~~”

T_T

Whoah. That’s like 20 years ago.

I’m feeling much older now.

I’m talking about other people’s subselves.

It’s weird you know.

Sometimes we just don’t know who we really are.

What we can do, or what we can really be.

Sometimes other people could see us as a person who is much more than who we think we are. (and of course there are people who think the other way around).

And once people think we are better or bigger, wealthier or prettier, (or whatever adjectives prolific we can put there which could describe ourselves as more something something something than other people), they would expect to receive an awe strikingly outcome from us.

So our responsibility becomes greater and greater. When failure happens, our life might fall apart and break, but some of us try hard to get up again. And some others might just shatter and disappear.

I met some perfectly interesting people today, who partially think they’re nothing, useless or not even a human being for some reasons but actually so perfect and gorgeously awesome in other people’s eyes.Maybe they have been going through a lot of big responsibilities and challenges in finding the person they really are.

Because I could see the darkness of the past in their beautiful smiling eyes. Some of them have ended the journey of seeking their truly selves successfully and some others have not. Because at some point, those ’some others’ think they’re hopeless, even though I could say that the world always thinks they are the perfect ones who can actually get whatever other people want.

Sometimes when we look at ourselves in the mirror, we do not completely understand what we see. So we have to keep looking, and keep on trying to understand.

Understand the way to become the person we can really be, because sometimes being the person we think we are (False Self) is the worst thing to do. It’s hard to change the false image that we have been giving to ourselves for so long, you know. But keep on trying. Maybe someday we will find our true selves somewhere along the journey.

Apabila cuti panjang hampir tamat

(scheduled post)

Ketika entry ini wujud di blog saya, mungkin saya dalam perjalanan dengan kereta ke Kuala Lumpur bersama ayah, abang dan adik. (Tiket yang dah dibeli beberapa hari lepas tu terpaksa diubah ke tarikh lain). Mak saya pula dah pun ada kat KL sejak 2 hari lepas untuk jaga Zahra.

Dua hari lepas, result (PASS/FAIL) final exams sem lepas dah pun keluar. Alhamdulillah, saya pass semua subjek dan CGPA pun bertambah. Wohoooo~!  Moga sem depan dapat dinaikkan lagi. InsyaAllah.

Pagi ni sebelum breakfast, saya terbaca artikel Dr. Mohd Asri bertajuk ‘Tegas Berakidah, Luas Dalam Fekah’. Dan kat bawah ini adalah petikan dari tulisan beliau berkaitan dengan solat Jamak/Qasar dari artikel itu yang ingin saya kongsi bersama.

Moga bermanfaat.

p.s: Selamat Tahun Baru Cina buat rakan-rakan berbangsa Cina. :)

Seroja

(Seroja – Amir Sofaz)

Mari menyusun seroja,
Bunga seroja
Hiasan sanggul remaja,
Puteri remaja

Rupa yang elok,
Dimanja jangan dimanja
Pujalah ia oh saja,
Sekadar saja

Mengapa kau bermenung,
Oh adik berhati binggung

Janganlah engkau
Percaya dengan asmara

Sekarang bukan bermenung,
zaman bermenung

Mari bersama,
Oh adik memetik bunga

Farewell Dubya!!

(tajuk tiada kena mengena, melainkan ucapan ta-ta kepada Encik Dubya setelah dengan rasminya Obama menjadi presiden US 20hb lepas. Moga banyak perubahan baik akan berlaku – (walaupun saya amat ragu-ragu dengan ‘kebaikan’ Obama yang amat berkarismatik itu).

Apa-apapun, saya rasa, walaupun cuti 3 minggu kali ini sama seperti cuti-cuti yang lepas (takde buat apa-apa, hanya duduk di rumah, dan menempel di skrin monitor sahaja), cuti kali ini saya rasa sungguh tenang dan tak bosan. Tiap-tiap pagi ada embun tebal yang sejuk, langit yang biru tanpa awan, tengahari yang panas sesuai untuk membasuh baju, petang-petang pula dapat bermain-main dengan kucing-kucing dan berkejar-kejaran bersama anak kambing. Wah. Indah sungguh rasanya.

Waktu malam pula, bintang-bintang memenuhi langit dengan sungguh indah sekali. “And as we lie beneath the stars, we realize how small we are” – Nickelback – If Everyone Cared.

Semua ini membuatkan saya rasa mahu menyanyi lagu Aselin Debison – Somewhere Over The Rainbow / What a Wonderful World di dapur sambil menari-nari berpusing-pusing keriangan. Ahhh~~
(Ya, saya memang begitu.hihi)

Tadi pegi renew lesen memandu, dan beli tiket untuk balik MMU 31 Januari nanti. Err.. nak sambung cuti lagi 3 minggu boleh tak?

ok lah, Selamat Hari Khamis.

p.s: Sejujurnya saya tak berkejaran dengan kambing, tapi masa tengah cari kucing yang keluar merayau-rayau, ada anak kambing ikut saya berjalan balik rumah sambil mintak susu. hu hu hu (saya agak terharu terkesima kerana beliau menyangka saya ibu beliau) T___T
