Welcome to Good Burger. Home of the Good Burger.

Can I take your order?

The popular line from Nickelodeon's Good Burger (probably one of the best films by them) mentioned by Ed (Kel Mitchell). Brought back memories watching cos I don't have the cartoon channels anymore. 

Here's a sneak into the first 3-minutes,

Them spinning things

As of yesterday, I am proud to say I have partaken in another four-wheeled activity. One that I have never participated in before, and one that requires great discipline, perseverance, enthusiasm, abit of courage, and seriousness (really you can't laugh if you're doing it for the first time or you'll find yourself rolling OUT OF CONTROL!). The four-wheeled activity I speak of is,

INLINE SKATING!!!!

and I say it with such an outburst of colour because they have shelves full of skates of different colours and sizes (not to mention the smell, but don't let that discourage you! Tho half the time i found it to be in my way of concentration). 

Here're a few tips if it's your first time:

1. Bring a friend along

you do not want to go alone. if you fall on your bottoms, you wanna make sure you have someone to laugh with, not you at yourself

2. Try and choose the un-smelliest skates when renting

yes, very important but low success rate so far

3. Try and feel the ground with the skates on

woozy baby. you'll prolly fall on your ass the first time. its cool if you got the protective guards on. they make falling more fun tho you wouldn't want to

4. If you're gonna fall, don't forget to pull friend!

you lose balance, you pull friend, friend loses balance, and you guys know you just look like a clown act

5. Try not to laugh

once you do, your body jiggles, the four-wheeled things jiggle along, next thing you know your ass is meeting the floor again

6. Hey, here's an idea! Why don't we use the practice rink which has leveled-flooring rather than the pathways which has unleveled-flooring!

genius! great way to start cos they got railings to hold on to. you can still fall but slowly you pick up your own pace

:(

I feel so free now that I don't have to sleep and can do whatever I want. Gerekzzzz

So haven't been to my bestie's, Ruz, blog in a while when I saw this -

I'm gonna end my post with a video for my girlfriend, Natz! Hey gf! You still remember this vid? Brought back a lottttt of memories when I watched it the other night. 

Turns out it's A1 Ready Or Not! Hahah yep, definitely brought back memories. Sec 1. The girls tried to learn the choreography for some sch performance. And the memorable part was when some of us [you know who you are, miss ;)] got into an argument later. Oh days of immaturity. Sec school's been a blast yea? Let's go back someday. 

I misses you girlfriend :)

Jem - They (music video) 

Who made up all the rules?
We follow them like fools.
Believe them to be true;
Don't care to think them through

I'm sorry, so sorry.
I'm sorry it's like this.
I'm sorry, so sorry.
I'm sorry we do this.

And it's ironic too...
'Cos what we tend to do
Is act on what they say,
And then it is that way.

I'm sorry, so sorry
I'm sorry it's like this,
I'm sorry, so sorry
I'm sorry we do this,

Who are they?
Where are they?
How can they possibly
Know all this?
Who are they?
Where are they?
How can they possibly
Know all this?

Do you see what I see?
Why do we live like this?
Is it because it's true:
That ignorance is bliss.

Who are they?
Where are they?
How do they
Know all this?
I'm sorry, so sorry.
I'm sorry it's like this.

Paramore - That's What You Get (Jimmy Kimmel live)

Flying over bus stops

It's funny, how will you ever know what's the right thing to do when you get confused between decisions all the time. 

You want to support others and be there for them, but do you need your alone time?

You want to care for the feelings of others, but should you care about your own feelings?

You listen to them whenever they need a listening ear, but do you need a listening ear too?

Sometimes you want to cry for attention but it would seem boastful and selfish. That's one of the first things people suspect. You want to cry for attention, but not too much for the good of you and the people you're with. So when is the right time to cry for attention, without seeming selfish and knowing you want to pay attention to them at the same time? 

I don't know. I think I'm talking senselessly now.

I envy selfless people. I really do cos I want to be that person. But it's hard when I'm so full of myself. They can humbly put their problems aside for a while despite its weight on them, and concentrate on the problems of others. Hats down to you selfless people.

Put your heart out

Here's a really good movie with a superb plot and cinemato. Based on a book of the same name. Absolutely wonderfool. So today is the first time I sat down properly to look at the menu at Swensen's. Other times were treats when I didn't glance at the menu at all cos it's not like I was paying. But it was a hearty meal - mac and cheese, and french fries, and abit of ice-cream. mmmmm. I ate till I couldn't budge and everything was up to my throat. 

But nevertheless, the company made the meal taste even better [thanks mr sunshine :D]

After the movie, we walked around cine area to find a random gig taking place. The music was good. something I could nod along or tap my feet to. 

Then we sat down and talked. Something's been bothering me and finally I spilled it to him. Being honest was never my thing, and still isn't cos of the way I grew up. But I'm glad I did, I'm glad I told him, and I'm glad he was there to hold me as I sulked away. 

Spunky Saturday.

You wish you could solve every problem

but apparently you can't.

The heart is not able

when,

You know halfway across the world in China hundreds of thousands have died, and if they haven't they are still pinned under many thick slabs of rubble, in great pain, and slowly dying unless someone finds them, and hundreds of thousands more are drowning in their sorrows from their loss

A huge cyclone just hit a neighbouring country leaving many homeless, without family, food, shelter, and time is probably running out 

A teenage boy gets murdered in a bakery in London after refusing to fight

27 polar bears and counting are perishing

A childhood nightmare continues to haunt you

A husband attacks his wife and kids

You worry about a father's well-being

You worry about what proper upbringing for a child means

You worry about the child's future

You get tired of listening to people when they don't listen to you

You have an unfinished job

You wonder if change is the best option now

Something has been bothering you but you don't know what

You want to cry but don't know what for

... loser

The last few days have been going swell.

On Sunday, the MNM (mat, nat, mir) siblings went kite-flying! Really good cos I've never seen my brother behave like a child in the longest time. He was running everywhere with the kite hoping to keep it up. And I don't think Mijon has seen my bro act like that as well, so he was extra happy and we all just ran together. With very little wind,and not very experienced kite-flyers, we were pretty impressed by how high it got.

On Monday, I shopped for Mat's birthday present. I couldn't find anything proper so I just bought that flexi-hand neck massager from Action City. Then I dropped by school to see the boyfriend [:)].

On Tuesday, Happy 24th Birthday Mahathir! The lunch with Varian - super. A good 2-hour chat in the afternoon. I went to vista to try and edit this outside project we did, but all I could do was slice the clips up. Then we dropped by studio and saw everyone. Crazy studio IG is now 16 ppl bigger! Haha good luck you guys! Advantage is there's loads more hands, that's for sure. 

Finally, a dinner at Sakura for Mat's birthday where Mijon believed the fish dish to be a 'shark', and we dared him to eat the fish's eye. He said okay! And just when it was about to enter his mouth, it slipped off the spoon. haha nonsense.

Today is Wednesday! :D

That was awesome. Chatted with people today. And we talked and talked and talked hours non-stop, about working, about the future, about family, about school, about Greenland, about a lunch meet, about girls, about stereotypes, about being judgmental, about cause and effects, about new year resolutions and more.

It's been super gerek clarifying and sharing things. When people vomit out issues it's fun to respond back. But I'm super exhausted, after endless, commercial-less, battle of beliefs and opinions. It's like seeing who has a fuller, richer-looking heart placed on the table.

Good night, and Good luck.

GEREK siol!

In mythology, people believe in all sorts of Gods and Goddesses near and far. Today, I believe too. That somewhere out there... there is a... GEREK-NESS GOD *gerek means something very awesome la, like DOPE who fulfills all our GEREK-NESS wishes because we are such good boys and girls. 

Pulau Ubin in the day + Orchard in the night + people you love = 

GEREK THE BERMAXIMUM la

YOU ALL DOPE, EPOD, PODE, DOEP, OPED la.

This is a really great song. 

The National - About Today (live on Spin)

Long way down

Do you feel like sometimes you have a picture of the kind of person you want to be in your head, and you believed it your entire life you are that ideal person. But everytime a situation beckons you to behave like that person, you find it difficult. It never really occurred to you why and you weren't about to find out yet. But you knew so long as you stayed that ideal person, nothing can go wrong.

But as the years go on, you see it happening again and again. You seem to always find a problem in everything. Till you come to a point where you have to stop and think, is something wrong? Am I really who I think I am? And it puts you in such a whirlpool of confusion that you think about it when you sleep and when you're awake. Until finally, you begin to fit some of the pieces together.

I've been in self-denial all my life. But lately, I discovered a lot of truths about myself. It is a little scary but enlightening. Are you who you really think you are?
