Its a really sweet story about how a relationship functions. As a whole, i think that it is really accurate and that short film is really well made. Music composition was nicely done with nice cinematic scenes. I would have to say thank you to May for posting this link on her Facebook

Enjoy and have a nice day.

“Hi I’m Sydney. You are?” Her smile was mesmerizing to say the least. A friendly smile but i can sense a little bit of playfulness with a dash of sexiness in between.

“I–, I–”

Damn! What the heck is wrong with me? Get a hold of yourself Liam!

I could feel myself perspiring. Little droplets of sweat forming just above my upper lip. My hearts just keeps on beating faster and faster as I reached out my hand to hers. The moment our hands touched, I felt a jolt in the stomach and automatically held my breath. Somehow I managed to mutter the words, “I Liam,” followed by an awkward smile.

“I Liam” was the best thing I could come up with? Very smooth I know…but like I said before; I’m just not good with people, period! Especially with a girl that for some unknown reason just gave me that fireworks feeling that you should have kissing someone you love with a simple handshake.

Maybe its her beauty. Just a shade darker than her sister, she had an oval face, high cheekbones, slightly pointed nose with light brown eyes. One side of her straight shoulder length hair was neatly tucked behind her ear. Her lips was a deep red tinged by pink lip gloss.

No it’s not just her beauty. There was something else, but i just couldn’t put a finger on it.

As i analyzed her perfect features, i realised that i was still holding her hand. I quickly let go and she continued to introduce herself to Derrick, as if she was oblivious to the fact that i held her hand for what seemed to be an eternity.

I mustered the courage to speak, trying to keep my tone as neutral as possible.

“So Sydney, where are you studying?” A typical and boring question I know but its the only question I could think of in the condition I’m in.

“Oakwood College at Precinct Nine. I’m taking Financial Economics there. How about you?”

“Really? I go to Oakwood University at Precinct Two. Taking Financial Engineering. Oakwood College is like a sister college to Oakwood university right?”

“Yes it is. But I’m finishing my diploma soon. Then off to Melbourne for my degree.”

“Melbourne as in Australia? Wow…but why not go to Sydney, cause you know, your name is Sydney.” I let out a small zany laugh. It was a pathetic attempt at making a joke.

She laughed at my feeble joke which sounded genuine, but i have a feeling she’s heard that joke a thousand times.

“Nah…ever since i was small I’ve always wanted to study at Melbourne University.” She smiled as if she was reminiscing a good childhood memory.

“Ahh…i see,” was the only reply i could think of. Then there was silence between us. My brain apparently has lost the ability to continue a good conversation. There was so many things i could have said or asked. Tell me about your childhood. Where did you get your lovely watch. Why did the woodchuck chuck wood? Just anything. But there i was, sitting silently as my brother chats away with Rosey on office gossip. I looked at Sydney who seems to be listening to Derrick’s and Rosey’s conversation. To Sydney’s right was Ariana busy texting on her phone. I didn’t notice her sitting there before.

Then came a group of people through the door. It was the people Derrick invited along with a few of Ariana’s friends. Being a good hostess, Rosey introduced everyone but one person stood out. A guy who asked to be called Check, one of Ariana’s friends. Wearing a black tee which seemed two sizes too small for his kind-of-buff body and washed out blue Levis jeans, he was shorter a couple of inches shorter than me. With a chiseled jaw and spiky jet black hair, he was good looking. He reminds me of a warewolf character in one of those tv series.

If you’re wondering why I said he stood out, well its not of his physical appearance, but his apparent interest in Sydney. He hugged her as if he was her boyfriend when he came and only talked to her after the introductions. I know for a fact that Sydney was single so he can’t be her boyfriend but Sydney has shifted all her focus on him. Why didn’t i continue talking to her, and why the hell did that douchebag has to come? I got up and walked to the stone bench at the garden.

I need a smoke.

“Come on man…let’s go already!,” Derrick said eagerly.

I have three choices. Go to the party, stay at home with my aunt and little cousins or hangout with a good friend of mine that i have not seen for what seems to be a millennium. Choice number three seems to be the obvious choice for me.

“I don’t know. I don’t even know your friend. Like seriously, I’m not good with people.”

It was the god honest truth. I always seem to freeze up whenever I hangout with a large crowd of unknown faces.

“Dude…just come!” Derrick whined. “It would be fun! Plus…plus! Rosey has a hot sister that’s around you’re age,” he said with a cheeky tone.

“A hot sister? You’re seriously using that as a reason?” i replied with a chuckle.

“Come on. Please?”

By the tone, I know that Derrick is finally giving up trying to convince me. But then, I thought about how much he has helped me these last few years, financially mostly. He was there whenever i needed a hand in something, and will always be there. I loved my brother for all that he’s done for me. Why not do this little favour for him?

So I caved.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Location: Upstate.

The moment we reached the gate of Rosey’s house, one word flew in my mind: HUGE! It was a Victorian styled house with a driveway filled with Mercs and Beamers. No wonder we had to sign in at the guardhouse. Rosey must be royalty, or the daughter of one at the very least. My brother could see that I was in awe.

“Like it so far?” Derrick said with a smug face.

“Meh…”

It was the only reply i could think of. I don’t want to give him the satisfaction.

“Well let’s go in! A pretty lady awaits you,” he said with a wink.

As we stepped in the house, Rosey greeted us with a big smile. She was a fair woman with wavy brown hair; about five foot six and a slim figure. After Derrick formally introduced me to her, she invited us to go to the backyard for some food and graciously introduced us to everyone. Now when i say everyone, i mean the whole twelve people that were there. Most of them were her family.

“So is this the whole party?” Derrick asked.

“Well pretty much. I invited everyone kinda late, and these are the only ones who could turn up.” said Rosey with a hint of sadness.

“No worries. I’m pretty sure i could text a few more people to come,” said Derrick while taking his phone out of his pocket.

“Really? Thanks!” Rosey beamed. “I think a few more of my sisters friends are coming.”

“Speaking of your sisters, where are they? My brother wants to meet them.”

“Wait sisters?” I said with a bit of shock. All this time I thought she had only one sister. Well it doesn’t seem to matter anyways. As cute as Rosey was, she wasn’t my type and I’m pretty sure her sisters would be the same.

“Are you single?” asked Rosey with a smile.

“Well I-”

“He’s single tonight!” interrupted Derrick followed by a big laugh.

I snickered.

Why is it that whenever a person wants to meet another person they assume it was to hook up? Can’t you just meet someone for the sake of making new friends?

“I’d go call them.” I could see Rosey smirk before she set off to find her sisters.

“Well time to eat!” said Derrick while tapping his over-sized stomach.

We grabbed a couple of hotdogs from the grill and sat down at the dining area. Midway through my first hotdog Rosey came back with one of her sisters. Still standing she said “Derrick and Liam, meet Ariana.” We smiled and shook Ariana’s hand. As i expected, she was pretty much a younger version of Rosey. Definitely not my type.

“And here comes Sydney,” said Rosey while pointing to the door.

I turned and my heart skipped a beat.

Why do we have to keep things for ourselves?

Why the fff-heck am i like this?

I laugh and laugh..but still…it kinda hurt…

You’re confusing and fun…and yet all i can do is try to avoid you…

You know what? I think i understand you now…I just wish we have one chance to have a heart to heart…

“Big” cause in the end only 18 people attended…

Well kinda disappointed by how many attended cause i expected more, but hey…it was fun

And the buka puasa between batches was quite ok as well…Just that i think that there wasn’t enough food ordered and the space was tight…haha…and some of the people from the new batch seems quite awkward being with us…but in the end…all is good…

Pics to come when the internet at my home is functioning again
(Internet got barred cause of lack of payment -_-”)

Even the useless things that people don’t even need to know like, I’M GOING TO SEOUL GARDEN FOR BUKA TODAY!

Haha…A daily record of my thoughts for others to read. Feels kinda like invasion of privacy actually, but what the hell… I’m gonna start blogging again. Maybe i won’t be so “rajin” as to blog every single day, but hey, its my blog thus..MY RULES! Haha…

For those people who are reading this blog (i have no idea why anyone would want to read this blog), i’d have to say…sorry if you don’t like it and excuse they bad English. But hey, if you wanna have a little insight on how my tiny brain here works, then stay tuned!

Well…its not like i don’t have work, but i know how to split my work equally so i have loaddddds of free time

Anyways…life in SIMA is just great. Lots of new friends and acquaintances…a relaxed working environment..well actually kinda smelly now in my department cause of the “racun anai-anai” leak…but other than that…this place is just plain awesome. Haha…

I’ve got to say that, for now, life can’t get any better. Life is going just so smoothly for me that i feel really blessed. Alhamdulliah

Now…let’s just say that i’m a little bit confused with my life. You ever have that feeling that you’re thinking about a specific person too much, a little bit too much that the person even starts to appear in your dreams constantly? Well, its happening to me right now. I don’t know why. I don’t know how that person does it. All i can say is, damn that person is good.

Lets end this with a little snippet of something i’m working on:
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. At first sight, she was not the prettiest of them all. But as time passed, she showed her inner beauty. Her smile now is the sweetest thing he’s ever seen, and he can’t stop himself from imagining her smile. He could feel his pulse, the excitement, rising whenever he’s with her. He only wonder’s why this is…”

Forget about consequences for once…forget about what others would think…Time for new experiences in life…
Don’t be afraid…
Don’t be embarrassed…
Cause you’d never know, if you don’t try something, say something then…it would be the biggest mistake in your life…
