Independence day (United States)

In the United States, Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. Congress approved the wording of the Declaration on July 4 and then sent it to the printer. Whether John Hancock, as the elected President of the Second Continental Congress, or anyone else signed the document that day is unknown, because that document has been lost — presumably destroyed in the printing process.[1] Hancock's name and that of a witness do appear on the typeset broadside that was published within a few days. On August 2 in the following month, an engrossed document in script form[2] was signed by Hancock and other delegates.

Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, picnics, baseball games, and various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of the United States, but is often also viewed as simply a summer festival, apart from its patriotic overtones.

Happy 4th Of July, Americans :)

I miss you.

I miss you so much baby :/

Penitence

Baby, I'm sorry about today's incident. I was stupid. You know I love you so much, deep down inside. Now, I promise to never sulk again and never find someone new. You are the only one who completes me. I don't want to lose you. You're my everything, you know that? I want to make things right again. I won't let you go this way. I must've been so hard on you and I'm sorry for all the things I put you through. I'm sorry for the helping hand I didn't lend. I wish I'd been better person. How do I tell you I'm sorry - with a gesture, a look, a touch? How is it I never realized that I hurt you so much? I'm sorry I hurt you. I didn't mean to. I regret it, I do.So let's start from the beginning and forget. I love you. Please forgive me baby? You're something I'll regret losing. I promise you that. I hope that I'll live longer.. At least, I live to see you successful in your life before I close my eyes.

Nurhafizah Hamzah baby, I LOVE YOU! ♥

John 'Perillys' Cahell ;D

Fathul turns notorious because of his technique of getting away against the tight securities in the mall with his gangsta attitude . Buying bogs when there are policemen roaming the streets, now that's what I called a brave soldier. I knew his world. It was like the world I grew up in Brunei. I knew gangsters and drugs and I was even in a band. It was like he was a long lost brother. Much respect, my man.

Anyways, I made a new friend today. Meeting him in real life was unexpected because all I heard are rumors about him. I guess today is my lucky day. Fathul introduced him to me. He's an awesome person, generous and a friendly person. His name is Johnathan. We met him around in the arcade. He looked disappointed because something awful happened during his birthday today. Oh yeah, he just turned 19! :D

HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY JOHN!
Okay, so about this John, a guy who loves to socialize with people. He has many friends but some of 'em hate him. That, I don't know why. Currently schooling in SMSA. He tells interesting stories. Hey! He loooves mysteries! He once told me that he was researching about ghosts and tried to find it for 7 months! He paid people to get some information about it, he went from place to place and in the end, he just found two and they were vampires! How amazing is that? He plays the guitar, well he's practicing for now. And he's a left-handed too! Jimi Hendrix, Joe Satriani ; these are some of the most uber-awesome guitar Gods! He can speak Malay language but not that fluent. Whenever he tells a story, the main word that he'll say is 'chicks'. Chicks here, chicks there. Everywhere! Chicks, chicks, chicks. His stories are incredible but it's hard to believe whether it's real or it's not real. He's planning to go to France next year because his friend there offered him a job. He said the people there in France, anywhere you go, you'll see people smoking. Even in the park! Anyways, we thought it was some kind of a big job, like a businessman or something that could make really big money. Apparently, he told us that he was going to work in McDonald's, cooking burgers. The salary there is probably around $2,400. Now THAT is big money! But I mean, come on! You'll fly all the way to France just so you can work at freakin' McDonalds?! There's one here in Brunei, hello? Ahh forget it. I'm looking forward to meet him again next time. Until here.

Talk a lot of bull.

My dad flew off to India yesterday. Don't worry dad, I'll take good care of the others. Some time in the afternoon, me and Fathul wanted to catch a number 38 bus. Turns out the bus didn't come on time. We got pissed and walked our way to Teguh Raya under the hot blazing sun. From there, I called up my auntie to pick us up. We then waited outside Ideal.

There was this Echo, parked outside of Ideal. At first, we didn't know who was the person giving hand signals and such. Fathul thought it was a girl. He dared me to walk up to that car and ask what's up. Forget it, I didn't. When that person stepped out of the car, turns out that HE was an old man. Walked up to us and said,"Are you guys going to Bandar?".

Fathul said,"No, we're going to Muara." The man nodded and walked away. Totally blanked and asked Fathul what is he working as. Guess what? He was working as a 'taxi sapu' 0.0 I don't know what's the meaning in English but I think most of you heard of the word. The fare costs only $1.00.

*Skipped to the part where we chilled at Mamih*

Aiman was doing faces and mocking us with a 'slang' of his. Pictures taken; Aiman is ALWAYS happy.*His shirt*













Before that, he talked some bull about Daus. Saying that he hates him, whatever. I think Aiman's attitude is a copycat type or something. For instance, if we hate someone, he too must hate that person. Well, he DOES look like a cat :) And not to mention, a two-faced person. You know what I mean right? He talks bull about us to Daus and talks bull about Daus to us. Who to trust? Of course, Daus. After that, I imitated Aiman's foolish dance which moves like a peacock. Here's the video.



I know it's whack. Don't complain. It's funny! & I got a new nickname; Morphine :s The guys gave me that name and I just don't know how did I get it =.='

I miss you, Mrs Davies. I completely understand that you are totally obsessed with Alex Davies. You know I love you. :D

A beauty, ain't she? :)

I LOVE YOU FIZAH!

Baby's out with The Sunshine :) She's worried about me. I am worried about her too. I hope she's all right and no punks tries to flirt with her. I trust her a lot. I'm trying to have a more futuristic focus right now, and stop worrying about my past. Visualizing my life down the road is an excellent way to give myself a goal to work toward.

The night is young :)

It's 4:05AM and the room temperature is darn freezing! Princess is sleeping safe and sound. Zul is on his way to dreamland. Fathul sleeping while listening to his 'soundtracks for tonight' songs. The girls are asleep. I miss baby very much! Las Vegas looks the way you'd imagine heaven must look at night.

And by the way, Fizah looks very very cute when she was a little girl. :D



Quote of the day;Every heart has its secret sorrows which the world knows not, and oftentimes we call a man cold, when he is only sad.

OT The Happening ; UBER-CONVINCING LINE!

There was a really good lookin' pharmacist behind the counter, really good looking. And I went up and I asked her where the cough syrup was, I didn’t even have a cough, and I almost bought it. Now I’m talking about a completely superfluous bottle of cough syrup, which costs like 6 bucks.


HAHAHA! I laughed when he said this :D

A valuable lesson for me ; today.

I've learned a valuable lesson for today. Don't care about yourself but others too. Say all the right things at the right time, don't hurt other people's feelings. Never ruin an apology with an excuse. It's hard to determine where to draw the line between being nice and not hurting people's feelings, and standing up for what you believe. More men are sorry for speaking, than keeping silence.

I'm sorry brothers. I was a fool back then.
