& in that moment, the world was ours
Wednesday, November 14, 2012
Dyou remember the time we'd sing on the bike despite the rain? Dyou remember our Playlist? Dyou remember crying to a moment to remember? Dyou remember flying the kite so high we lost it? Dyou remember your flat tyre? Dyou remember me giving you the wrong directions all the time? Dyou remember the $2 food we used to eat? Dyou remember cycling to West Coast? Dyou remember lying beneath the bed of stars in Tioman? Dyou remember sponging me when I fell sick abroad? Dyou remember taking the 18th storey bungy jump? I remember. & if one day I ever forget, I'll try my best to at least remember...I love you ❤ "For some reason, a long time ago, you and I sat down and said that on this day, we would set everything aside and try to find some meaning in the chaos of the world around us." - IWTFY  With love, Nur Edlin Effendi at 4:07 AM
Welcome onboard
Thursday, October 11, 2012
 As usual, it's me typing to myself. Where do I start?! Well, for a start, I found myself a full-time job! Believe it or not, Nur Edlin Effendi is now a cabin crew (riakliS; inverted for fear the office or anybody else might track me heh) despite her midget height & cow's body. I feel really awkward typing all this, seriously. & by now you should have already guessed how horribly awful my English is ever since I stopped blogging, but most important is school. This might come out as bimbotic, but I've got the easiest idiotproof job which actually do not require my brain most of the time. I don't write reports, I don't plan any events, I don't need to recce places, I don't have any software/program I need to get used to. I have applied zero skills from what I learnt in Poly, let alone sec school. & I'm loving the $$$$$ HAHAHA HOWEVER, there are times (seldom, but do happen) when something happens. Like a passenger lying on another passenger's leg shaking uncontrollably and I was the first crew to witness thus having to handle it. This, my friend, is not even close to other even worst cases I've heard. & the turbulent! OH ME GOSH THE BLARDY TURBULENT! One minute your feet is glued to the ground and bam! you're flying. Besides the fact that you have 138 passengers to look out for ensuring their seatbelts are fasten. & ON TOP OF THAT (yeaps, still not done yet) some insists on queueing up for the toilet flaunting their balancing skills stretching their legs as far apart to maintain balance looking like...I shan't say it. Alright, enough about the my job. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy working. The smiles you get when they've reached their holiday destination, the excitement you can see across their faces & knowing you'll be bringing them across or the fact that you just need to give them a glass of water when they start looking pale and knowing that you might have made someone feel a lil bit better than before. Oh the faces of kids when you give them toys! Or even the aunties and uncles, when they get their playing cards! (for some reason, singaporean aunties and uncles enjoy asking for playing cards onboard. If you didn't know it's free, please don't go start asking for it thanks) I'm really writing because I want to. To please nobody and the last thing I'd want is for more readers. I have come to terms with myself that my life is mundane just the way I like it. So if you've come this far, give yourself a pat; buy yourself a lolly in my name; & seriously man you must be dead bored #justsaying I HAVE SO MANY THINGS TO WRITE! Well, if you must know the main reason why I wish to start blogging was because I read my blog recently, & SERIOUSLY IT FELT SO GOOD TO BE ABLE TO KNOW WHAT I'VE BEEN UP TO FEW YEARS BACK! The way I described things, how I was madly in love with Zainee & all the crazy shit we do (im still madly in love alhamdulillah) or the days when I wake up and awful mess and DAMN! I swear it felt so good reading about me! (HAHAHA FUCKING FULL OF SHIT EDLIN) So here I am, a lil bit grown & a lil less entertaining, but stile the same mothertooting Edlin! I shall be back! Goodbye!      With love, Nur Edlin Effendi at 12:25 PM
Growing up, Giving up
Thursday, February 24, 2011
I thought I had it all figured out. I thought wrong. What happens now? Where do I go from here? I'm not saying I'm not glad I'm done with school, but Time was so cruel to pass by so quick I did not even have the time to figure out what am I supposed to do now that school's over. Suddenly, school's just over. I don't know how to make big decisions. I never make big decisions. The last time I did, I-shall-not-talk-about-it-let's-skip-this-part but Papa fixed it, no I did not fix anything. I'm so used to having Papa telling me where to go after this, after that, and all I did was just follow. I'm never the one determinining how something should be done, even when it comes to Zainee. So how? Do I continue my studies? Do I work? Do I do nothing? Or even anything even? I secretly wish Papa will say,"Olin, here you go. Apply for this university, it's very good. I pay" Or for Zainee to say, "You stay home, let me work" FINE I get it, I have to work I need to work but nonetheless, feed me will you! Tell me stuffs like "I got you the job" something, anything. Show me a sign, a lil speck of light, I promise I'll see it this time but you gotta guide me there. I don't know. I just don't know anymore. Both my man just left me hanging. Aimless & lost :'( With love, Nur Edlin Effendi at 5:12 PM
Some things you just don't question
Thursday, January 27, 2011
The day you read this Good morning, Good people :) I'm curled up like a ball in Zainee's tanktop and buried under my blankets SMILINGGGGGGGGG. Smiling because for the first time in my life, I spent alot of my money not on myself HAHAHA but on people I love. Smiling because Zainee's a schoolboy now. Smiling because I can smell Mama cooking kway teow! Yknow how sometimes you work so hard for something and nothing turns out right and when you finally give up, things just start falling into place. I'm not saying giving up is good, but I think when it comes to this you just have to let it happen naturally and all by itself. & that's when you start to learn that most of the time, no all the time in fact, it's all really up to God.

 Hello Cool iPhone AppLook how far we've come. Zainee has finally lifted the weight of NS off his back and so have I. My boyfriend's a free man now, and he has his Pink IC. Alhamdulillah, it was not easy hell no it wasn't but everytime when we're at the brink of giving up we always think of all the good times we've had and it does help conquer everything else, doesn't it? Remember the time you enlisted and I tried my best to hold back my tears and still cried anyway Remember the 5am good morning messages Remember all the nights out and how we'd still never fail to meet even if it meant just 2 hours Remember Brunei Remember Taiwan Remember National Day Parade 2009 and all the weekends burnt Remember missing your 20th Birthday & my 18th Birthday Remember counting down to 2010 on the phone because you were at SAFTI Remember you leaving on the 5th day of Hari Raya Remember IPPT gold and marksmen Remember booking in/booking out Remember your first outfield, I cried and cried because I was so scared you won't come back Remember your classic NS phone with awesome flashlight Remember the times I stayed up all night with you to accompany you otp while you had guard duty Remember the accident you had when you were about to meet me from camp Remember bus 67 and how I'd fetch you every book out back when you had no bike Remember SAFTI at Jurong and I came down with food even if it meant only seeing you for 15 minutes Remember the last month of NS and how everyday you had reherseal parade Remember your ORD function and how I managed to spot you first in the crowd Remember the last day of NS and how you came by my place immediately after Remember the whole 2 years we've conquered <3 Who would have thought 2 years ago, I was sending you to Camp tears welling up in my eyes and my heart just kept telling me I won't survive, we won't survive. 2 years later, look where we are. Nobody said it was going to be easy but still, we managed didn't we.  ORD PARADE! One down, and many many more to go :) The couple who wore gortex (correct me if i'm wrong) and mine was knee-length and we don't give a damn because you look just as stupid as me and so did I.  Taiwan! Which was during my attachment and my 18th Birthday and I cried and cried and cried and cried because I missed you so much A day before you enlisted, I made sure I had gazillion pictures of you so I don't end up missing you too much. But I still did.With love, Nur Edlin Effendi at 5:13 PM
& it'll steal all your innocence

  Imma wallow myself in self pity because everyone's asleep and reflect on things I should not have done but have and things I should have done but didn't. I hate how my sentences will run so long everytime I start thinking too much. No, I'm not sad. I just think it's the(my) time of the year where you take time to do some self-reflecton and try your best to undo the bad. Which, most of the time, you can't. I really wanted to end this post happy. I am happy, I know this. The reason I'm like this is because I'm happy. Everyone's pleasing me but I'm pleasing nobody. People have to stop being nice to me. Zaini has to stop pampering me all the time. Papa has to stop giving me all the money. Mama has to learn to scold me sometimes. Ernie should stop always looking out for me. Siti should stop being so generous with her hugs and kisses. My friends should stop letting me blatantly speak my mind all the time. I'm selfish. I've been a very very selfish girl. I hate being selfish. I want to die and go to heaven. I hope heaven wants me. Hello. My name is Nur Edlin Effendi & I'm on a mission. I'm on a mission to start giving Love and not just keep taking Love. Please, will you help me :'( With love, Nur Edlin Effendi at 12:23 AM
So, It goes on

 Telling the truth isn't always good, but lying isn't always bad. If telling the truth makes someone feel bad, lying can be good. Good things can come from lying, bad things from the truth...although sometimes telling part of the truth is the same thing as telling a lie. - Chasing Liberty With love, Nur Edlin Effendi at 12:54 PM
Seriously, don't bother reading
Nobody's asking me to be so transparent & I'm not obliged to write everything on this space. But I shall... (cause I'm cool like that) - I'VE FINALLY COMPLETED MY 6 MONTHS ATTACHMENT. & Truth be told, I do not like the Hotel line. I love the people, I love the environment but I cannot stand the hours for nuts. & most of the time, our weekends are burnt. - I'm having a 2 and a half months holidays, fucking awesome. I don't want to work, yes I still haven't come to my senses yet. So I sit home and bum. Sleep, something I'm very good at. - I'm left with 4 freaking awesome months of school ! I'm so excited and happy, I think. Kayz, this is getting extremely boring and aimless. All you gotta know is my life hasn't change much, really, I'm still with Zaini, alhamdulillah. Siti still eats alot and refuses to study. Nobody I know became President. Oh, a really good news would be Alhamdulillah My mum's going to perform her pilgrimage :) With love, Nur Edlin Effendi at 11:15 AM
