Good day,

Umm… okies it’s one of those melancholic times for me yet again! And yes it has everything to do with UIAM. I sure wish I could forget the place easily as it is forgetting me. Yup, I lost my wallet there soon 2 months back.

My old stuff (I told my ex-boss about putting it awhile in the hostel and he okayed it but not for the some monkeys working there) were thrown out of the old room I used to crash in. Like anyone is going to use it since it had a major electrical connection failure in there.

I fall down the stairs from the parking lot to the hostel (can you believe it I have been walking there day and night for the last 10 years and never fall down there?) and I got a sore ankle. The old office at STADD seems to be more eerie than I remembered.

I guess the ghosts over there (yes indeed, there some!) dont remember me anymore especially when I actually saw somebody’s head looking at my back from the reflection of the PC I was using at 3 a.m. My ex-boss and close friend has retired from service officially on Saturday. It’s funny but we went into UIAM Gombak about the same time (1998) and left it also almost at the same time.

Hmmm… and the latest I heard from the grapevine is that one of the student services UIAM is providing will be corporatised soon, I’m betting like in June this year. Oh boy! Lots of changes I see. But the feeling I have for it continues to be the same. So what to do? Hmmm… I was bumped so I decided to start collecting UIAM’s old logos (its designs I meant as the actual logo hasn’t changed).

I ran a search using old google and yeah, I got it!

   This is a modified version by somebody I dont know!

This is the original version since 1998 (as far as I knew)

This is the current UIAM logo.

I just wanted to document these logos before it is blown away with time and everybody forgets about it. Oh, when I am in a melanchonic mood, a background music usually hits it home. So as I am writing this whatever stuff, Hillary Duff is singing ‘So Yesterday’ as I wonder who is singing this to whom? UIAM to me or vice versa (since I still remember it most fondly)?

You can change your life - if you wanna
You can change your clothes - if you wanna
If you change your mind
Well, that’s the way it goes

But I’m gonna keep your jeans
And your old black hat - cause I wanna
They look good on me
You’re never gonna get them back

At least not today, not today, not today
’cause

[Chorus:]
If it’s over, let it go and
Come tomorrow it will seem
So yesterday, so yesterday
I’m just a bird that’s already flown away

Laugh it off let it go and
When you wake up it will seem
So yesterday, so yesterday
Haven’t you heard that I’m gonna be okay

You can say you’re bored - if you wanna
You can act real tough - if you wanna
You can say you’re torn
But I’ve heard enough

Thank you… you made my mind up for me
When you started to ignore me
Do you see a single tear
It isn’t gonna happen here
At least not today, not today, not today
’cause

[Chorus]

If you’re over me, I’m already over you
If it’s all been done, what is left to do
How can you hang up if the line is dead
If you wanna walk, I’m a step ahead
If you’re moving on, I’m already gone
If the light is off then it isn’t on
At least not today, not today, not today
’cause

[Chorus 2X]
