As Blue as the Smurfs

You know I’m feeling blue when:

1) Gorged on a large set of Mozza Burger from A&W, followed by Nasi Lemak Ayam (it’s a Malaysian food), and lastly Moist Chocolate Cake. Oh yeah, Miss Gluttony on the loose. However, such method is unfeasible and has failed to cast away the sorrow. Only Allah has the power to eradicate it.

2) Went for a car ride with my beloved friend to the male hostels. I know it may sound un-Islamic but don’t get me wrong. We didn't barge into the guys' dormitory (are you crazy despite it would be awesome?) but just having an innocuous sightseeing tour and relishing the beautiful scenery of God's creations *winks*.

3) Inadvertently brought out a journal from the library which couldn't be borrowed. As a result, the sensor went ballistic as soon as I stepped out. All heads turned to me simultaneously as if I were a thief. I was dumbfounded and lost at first. I didn't realize that I’d brought along the book. Luckily, the librarian didn’t shoot me with a Taser gun.

4) Scowled at a stranger (a guy) who was gazing at my feet in awe. I didn’t know what was so interesting about my stinky feet but it irked me immensely when he ogled at them unblinkingly. When I glared at him, he looked at me with bewilderment as I snapped, “Apa tengok tengok? (What the heck are you looking at?)He was nonplussed with his jaws wide open in shock as I walked away. Okay, did I perceive it wrongly? His mind might be inattentive when he looked at my feet. Well, too late for that. Alhamdulillah, I went back to my hostel in one piece. I know I ought to be careful. Who knows that stranger might be a brutal killer or a vicious gangster.By the way, such incident happened at Wangsa Walk.

5) Burst into robust laughter when I watched Johnny English at the cinema till the exasperating laughter of mine attracted people to look at me instead of the movie.

4) Curled up in bed, sobbed and invoked Allah’s name.

Satisfying humans is like counting your hair

Oh yeah, I’m not joking. It’s impossible to please human’s heart desires. When you say kind, sugar-coated words all the time, (well can’t help it, my friend even called me Complimentary Smurf) some people find it rather annoying. If you utter harsh and corrosive words of course, they will turn into an incredible hulk and crush you like a bug.

Why do I love complimenting people? It’s not because of my penchant for buttering people up or wheedling them into giving me something I want but I just hate hurling caustic words at people.

I know some of you might find me utterly annoying because of my habit of excessive and extravagant in complimenting. I’m truly sorry if I annoy some of you deeply but I just can’t help it. This is me. You just have to accept me as I am Complimentary Smurf. And I know it’s hard to believe when I fond of complimenting people all the time as it might lose its value and diminish sincerity but I really do mean them. Suck it up you grouchy people er I mean, my dear sweet with sprinkles on top grou er gorgeous people who like to get angry all the time. This is who I am.

That’s all for today. Assalamualaikum.
