There and back again....

Dedicated to the ones who always put me down. Down and down so low i can taste the ground with my tounge. You know who you are.

"Not Afraid"

[Chorus:]

I'm not afraid (I'm not afraid)

To take a stand (to take a stand)

Everybody (everybody)

Come take my hand (come take my hand)

We'll walk this road together, through the storm

Whatever weather, cold or warm

Just lettin you know that, you're not alone

Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road (same road)

[Intro (during Chorus):]

Yeah, it's been a ride

I guess I had to, go to that place, to get to this one

Now some of you, might still be in that place

If you're trying to get out, just follow me

I'll get you there

You could try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay 'em

But you won't take the sting out these words before I say 'em

Cause ain't no way I'ma let you stop me from causin mayhem

When I say I'ma do somethin I do it,

I don't give a damn what you think,

I'm doin this for me, so fuck the world

Feed it beans, it's gassed up, if it thinks it's stoppin me

I'ma be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedly

And all those who look down on me I'm tearin down your balcony

No if ands or buts, don't try to ask him why or how can he

From "Infinite" down to the last "Relapse" album

he's still shittin, whether he's on salary paid hourly

Until he bows out or he shits his bowels out of him

Whichever comes first, for better or worse

He's married to the game, like a fuck you for Christmas

His gift is a curse, forget the Earth, he's got the urge

to pull his dick from the dirt, and fuck the whole universe

[Chorus]

Okay quit playing with the scissors and shit, and cut the crap

I shouldn't have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for you to know it's a rap

You said you was king, you lied through your teeth, for that

Fuck your feelings, instead of gettin crowned you're gettin capped

And to the fans, I'll never let you down again, I'm back

I promise to never go back on that promise, in fact

Let's be honest, that last "Relapse" CD was ehhh

Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground

Relax, I ain't goin back to that now

All I'm tryin to say is get back, click-clack, blaow

Cause I ain't playin around

It's a game called circle and I don't know how, I'm way too up to back down

But I think I'm still tryin to figure this crap out

Thought I had it mapped out but I guess I didn't, this fuckin black cloud

still follows, me around but it's time to exorcise these demons

These motherfuckers are doin jumpin jacks now!

[Chorus]

And I just can't keep living this way

So starting today, I'm breaking out of this cage

I'm standing up, I'ma face my demons

I'm manning up, I'ma hold my ground

I've had enough, now I'm so fed up

Time to put my life back together right now! (now)

It was my decision to get clean, I did it for me

Admittedly, I probably did it subliminally

for you, so I could come back a brand new me you helped see me through

And don't even realize what you did, believe me you

I been through the ringer, but they could do little to the middle finger

I think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king of

my world, haters can make like bees with no stingers

and drop dead, no more beef flingers

No more drama from now on, I promise

to focus solely on handlin my responsibilities as a father

So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof, like my daughters

and raise it, you couldn't lift a single shingle on it!

Cause the way I feel, I'm strong enough to go to the club

or the corner pub, and lift the whole liquor counter up

Cause I'm raising the bar

I'd shoot for the moon but I'm too busy gazin at stars

I feel amazing and I'm

[Chorus]

World's Tiniest Chameleon Discovered

A species of chameleon small enough to easily perch on a match head has been discovered on a tiny island off Madagascar, a group of scientists has announced.

In addition to the discovery ofBrookesia micra, now the tiniest chameleon ever discovered, the researchers also announced the discovery of three additional tinychameleon species.

Adult males of the B. micraspecies grow to only just over a half-inch (16 millimeters) from nose to bottom, making them one of the smallest vertebrates ever found on Earth.

From nose to tail, adults of both sexes grow to only 1 inch (30 mm) in length.

Lead researcher Frank Glaw said the team already had experience finding tiny lizards in Madagascar, "but it was also good luck."

The team searched for the tiny lizards under the cover of darkness, using headlamps and flashlights to seek out the sleeping chameleons. All four species are active during the day, and at night climb up into the branches to sleep.

But for such tiny critters, "up into the branches" means a mere 4 inches (10 centimeters) off the ground, Glaw told OurAmazingPlanet, so finding them is no easy task. However, once spotted, the tiny lizards aren't tough to catch, Glaw said.

"They are sleeping and you can just pick them up. It's like picking a strawberry, so it's easy," Glaw said. "They do not move at all at night."

The team of scientists found the tiny reptiles in Madagascar's wild northern regions during expeditions between 2003 and 2007. For three of the species, "we immediately identified them as new species," said Glaw, a veteran herpetologist and curator at the Museum of Natural History in Munich.

"In general, these tiny chameleons are so small that it's really hard to see the small differences with the naked eye," he said.

The researchers warn that at least two of the newly-discovered chameleon species are extremely threatened because of habitat loss and deforestation in Madagascar.

Glaw, who has been going to Madagascar to research its ever-expanding list of amphibians and reptiles for a quarter century, said that B. micra may represent the limit of miniaturization possible for a vertebrate with complex eyes, but said it's impossible to know for sure since each time scientists have proclaimed the discovery of the tiniest one yet, another, tinier species appears.

"Maybe there's a potential for a smaller species," Glaw said.

Another group of researchers recently announced the discovery of the world's smallest frog species in Papua New Guinea. The scientists also declared it the world's smallest vertebrate, but others contend that a species of angler fish is the smallest vertebrate yet discovered on Earth.

Glaw is planning another expedition to the region of Madagascar in November.

"I'm sure there are many surprises awaiting discovery," he said.

ps - awwwww isn't he the cutest? ^_^

2012....the all new ladyfieza?

2012. If i'm not mistaken, last few years were very ironic and funny years. Everyone's babbling

and debating about how the world will end in 2012. Some say a meteor will come crashing on Earth,

as how a huge meteorite crashed on Earth like a thousand million billion years ago. Some say

it'll just end like that, with a snap of a finger. Movie makers started gushing out their ideas and

of coz, mullas (which means money of coz) to create scenes that might happen when the 2012 disaster arrive.

Like the movie 2012? I'm not a big fan of the movie much, but... eeehhhhhh... u know.... so-so.

But i'm glad the puppy in that movie is safe and sound. If he drowns in that ship, i will curse the director.

Forgive me, i'm an animal lover.

2012. The girl whose name is Ladyfieza has awaken. And she is in a different realm. A realm of motherhood. To think that she now has a small princess to take care of....her own flesh and blood. Such a gift from Allah is to be loved and pampered. She is after all, my precious...... (with the gollum slang there, mind you). I am very thankful to be married to Dicky Ishkandar. We have our ups and downs, yes. We met wwaaaayyyyy before. Since the first time i spoke to him, to ask him about his health. Hahahhahah it was cool. We laughed, we cried, we joked, we argued together. We broke off, we came back, we clased, we came back. And finally, we came back for good. God is Great. Alhamdulillah. We're very happy together, with Little Adawiyah. Although i admit, at this very moment, we're having a little trouble, but heck...that will never put us down. InsyaAllah, things will be alright. We're doing okay. :)

2012. Did you know that i have not touched my pens, pencils and papers since i got married and little Adawiyah came along? Right, 2 years! *nods* and what happens when i want to start drawing The Cavaliers? Right, my hands are kind of stiff! *shakes head in despair* I miss my arts, i miss my characters ; the Cavaliers, so bad. I created them since i was in high school, and i'm attached to them ever since. They're my babies. I miss them so much. I need to start back drawing. I gotta! Their adventures hangs by a thread. So many things happened, bad, worse, worst. I made my art career go down in jeopardy. Just because of my laziness, chronic procrastinating and of course, low self-esteem. I admit, I was not confident with myself before. I get edgy when everyone else managed to publish their work, and not me. I guess part of me tries too hard to be that person in her dreams ; a well-respected comic book artist. I would like to start drawing again. I miss my friends too. Jennifer, Jim Main, John Lambert, Wally Lowe, doc Boucher, Sam.... and more. I miss a lot of people. Another reason i'm a little late in coming back is because I am afraid so much that my friends will not like me any more. that my friends will think that i am nothing but a loser. Yes, i admit it again. And i'm being frank now. Now i just want to fix my life again, my art life. My hobby, my career. I wish that my friends will give me that second chance. I've been knocked down a lot of times, but i will come back again. Will you guys give me a second chance?

2012. I am going to look for a job now. Yup. I have a kid and a family to take care now. "With great power comes great responsibility." Heard that before? It's Spidey of course. I think i do have great power. It's within me. And the responsibility is too much to bear. With great power, comes great responsibility. You're so damn right, Pete. I will try my best to show my quality, myself. My husband told me that. "Show them your quality."

Sorry for yapping and babbling. It's been 2 years since i last babble in a blog. Hahaha. :D The good old days..... :)

Caricature Stint @ Summit USJ

Aaahhhh yes.... It's been like what.... ages since i last updated my blog? very scary indeed. But yes... lots of things happened while i was gone. I got married, i have a kid, i've been procrastinating as usual..... hahahahhaha same old, same old. But Alhamdulillah, after 5 months of giving birth to sweet lil Rabiatul Adawiyah (or little wonder woman), I got an offer from Gary, my bro's friend. A 3 day caricature stint at Summit USJ. It's been awhile since i drew anything so me and my hubby journeyed on to the place on the 18th of Dec to start caricaturing. My fingers were a little stiff, due to the lack of 'wriggling' my fingers (means i haven't been drawing for like...... 9 plus 5....14 months?), so i had a little difficulties. With a few drawings, i managed to loosen up my fingers, Alhamdulillah. :D

Here are some of the pics that my hubby took. He's been a real sport. I owe him a lot. :-p
