The Goodbye

Dear Insert-Your-Name,

HELLO EVERYBODY.

Well, if you do come across this blog, congratulations.
You are now entering my life back since 2009-2010.

I do not document everything in this web media, because well, honestly, I'm pretty much a private person. -_-
And with what I document here, I do not mean to harm, offend or hurt anyone.

When you go through of what I write here about my life from 2009 until 2010, do know that these are MY memories, something I can never alter or change, and will remain as MY memories, despite it being here on the web, or in my heart and my head.

And as for the rest of my life (Year 2011 onwards), I guess the story is yet to unfold.
And even if it does, it will not be written here. I will continue writing at > www.aziati.tumblr.com

I love you.

XOXO,
Aziati Wan Haron

I Wrote This For You #12

And I’m sorry if I haven’t written to you in a while.
It’s just that life gets in the way of living.
It’s just that my fingers were stuck together.
It’s just that all the paper in the world caught fire.

You’ll forgive me if I haven’t written in a while.
It’s just that all the envelopes made love to dragonflies and now, we cannot bring them down.
It’s just that time stopped ticking.
It’s just that all the ink ran clear.

It’s just that words ran out of letters (these are the last in the bag).
It’s just that language isn’t perfect.

It’s just, me.

Call To The Bar

Sebentar tadi, seawal pukul 7 pagi, aku ke Kompleks Mahkamah untuk melihat adik aku dinobatkan sebagai seorang peguam.

Apabila Kakak aku membaca the petition for him to be advocated as a lawyer, aku hanya tersenyum kerana obviously my brother had the greatest resume in the courtroom.

Aku bandingkan hujah-hujah yang di baca oleh peguam lain mengenai future lawyers mereka, dan bukan aku ingin menjadi 'bias', tetapi sungguh, Azri beat them all.

Kakak aku menjadi mover Azri kerana Kak Ija juga merupakan seorang lawyer, and what's awesome about today's Long Call adalah kerana kedua ibu bapa aku menjadi 'Master' yang menyarungkan 'Robe' kepada Azri.

Future-future lawyers lain mendapat Masters mereka yang entah siapa-siapa, tetapi adik aku berpriviledged untuk di sarungkan oleh ibu bapa aku, yang juga merupakan practicising lawyers.

On our way back, Daddy turned to me and said, "Out of all my children, you make the best lawyer." And then he added, "You know it's not too late."

And then he added, "Why didn't I force you to be a lawyer...." And started to wonder away.

I know it is very difficult for him to accept that my chosen career path might lead me to move on the other end of the world, and I don't blame him for it.

Me, on the other hand, don't really know what I want.
