Back From Bukit Merah

1st day masuk keje slps bercuti pnjg semenangnyer terase mcm hampagas. Tambah2 lak lagi bile time yg sepatutnye cuti tu digunekan untuk wat keje jgk. Tapi ape nak dibueknyo, dh kojo.

Well, abis la seminar aku kat Bukit Merah. Sblm pegi tu, gabra x sudah. Mane idaknyer, kene lak present kat taiko2 opis aku. Tapi berbangga la jgk, sbb ketua jabatan kate presentation aku bagus (time ni la hidung aku mengalami pengembangan yang ketara). And beyond work, mcm2 la kitorg buat. Main terup la, karaoke la (2 lagu je), skycycle la, chairlift la, sunset cruise la, snook la.....pendek kate, mmg x terbuang mase aku kat sane.

Tapi dalam kesoronokan aku kat sane, ade la jgk sesi potong stim yg aku alami. Got a call just before aku naik sunset cruise, and that call had really knock me out real good. Sampaikan aku nk mengenjoykan diri aku pun x dpt. At the same time, terase berslh la jgk kat opismate aku. Dh tentu ke'potongstim'an aku telah berjaye sikit sebanyak membunuh mood diorg. And from the bottom of my heart, i apologize to all u guys and gals. Nnt la aku settlekan sikit2 dlu. And besok pun nmpknye mmg mood aku hilang jgk, sbb aku akan terima tetamu nnt.

Hopefully, visit aku jmp Wan, Anuar, Kugen, Arun ngan Ronnie berjaya merungkaikan simpulan yang terbelit kat kepale hotak aku ni. Thanks guys. Korang la the best.

Well, dh xde ape nk dikate dlu wat mase ni. Nnt la ade mood sikit, aku tulis pnjg2 nnt

Off to Bukit Merah

Wow......I have more than 5 posts this month. Mmg achievement tul. Klo idak, nk blog sebulan sekali pun payah. Bkn aper, manjang jer bz (or is it pasal aku tgh xder idea nk blog). Oh, well. Since the fingers are already pounding on the keys of my laptop, might as well I finish it.

Finally, after all the cursing, harsh words, and name calling, finally Maxis gave all the freebies that they owed me. Not that I'm the kind that goes for freebies, but let's face it, if they promise something, than we should damn as hell sure that they deliver it. Probably there are some of y'all out there who would care less about free sms'es, and that channelling your energy in getting what they had said in the first place is just too taxing. But me? HELL NO! Aku kene make sure aku akan dapat aku yg pttnye aku dapat, and I sure as hell will make their lives miserable until I do so. Rasenye lps ni aku sure dh xdpt offer freebies from Maxis lagi. Tapi x kisah la, janji skg aku dh ade extra RM15 in crdt, and another 1100 free sms. Bleh muntah aku nk abiskan sumer tuh.

Lps ni, aku kene pack utk seminar aku kat Bukit Merah. Tapi before that, aku kene la singgah PB dlu. Need to pick up a few things, and have some errands done. But before I do all that, kene la singgah umah Mr Amir dlu (bukan Melayu, it's short for something...not sure of his full name). Lgpun dia la jiran sblh umah aku dlu. Xkn x pegi time Christmas lak, tul x?

To be frank, aku tgh cuak tahap cipan pasal seminar ni. Bukan aper, it's my 1st ever seminar, and I'm presenting 2 papers. To top it, aku dh la x terlibat pun dalam perlaksanaan menatang2 ni, takat tulis paper jer. So, excuse me if I am chanelling my frustrations, worries and fright in here. Aku cume leh harap yg aku x kene bambu jer nnt. But I'll make sure I'll be prepared with all my bag of tricks. In short, aku kene la bring my A game. Xtau la klo yg lain pun secuak aku jgk. But I can only pray that Allah will give me strength in the days to come.

Rase mcm x senonoh lak aku nk takutkan pasal nk bentang paper ni. After all, it's not my 1st time being at the giving end of a speech. MC pun dh biase, panel pun dh penah, penceramah pun penah, nyanyi dpn org pun penah. Maybe pasal bende ni something new kot. Tapi klo nk ikutkan, mase aku 1st time buat sumer speeches sblm ni pun, xder lak aku seriau lagu ni. Tak tau la cek oiii.......rasa mcm nak pi lari tang mana2, lepaih tu aku nk sok saja lebih kurang dalam sehari dua.

Tapi one thing yang aku mmg kena buat nnt, I have to get my mom's blessings for this. No mater what, aku kene make sure she knows what I'm doing, and berkat doa seorang insan yang melahirkan kita di muka bumi ini, aku akan diberi kekuatan sehebat Power Rangers.

Next week aku nk make sure aku akan rest sehabis2nya untuk 4 hari nnt. Kene la jgk cas bateri aku ni. Dh la aku blum amik cuti rehat lagi since Raye Pose. I have to, klo x aku burn out mcm mase aku 2nd yr undergrad nnt.

Ok la, xtau nk kate panjang ke x post aku ni. Tapi rasenye cukup la kot for now. After all, aku x pack sekebendeharam lagi ni.

The Day I Kept Getting Caught

Kinda funny thinking how this day turned out. It seems like the more I want to keep things secret, the more the cover gets blown away.

Well, I really believe the stating how my day began would help in further explanations of what I went through. So I'll just skip to the part where it happened. I was on YM with my officemate (which if the others read this, they'll have a dang bright idea who she is). And out of the blue she suggested that we went to the movies during lunch. And yes, obviously we'll be taking a heck of a lot longer than the documented lunch time suggested to us staff. But hey, it ain't like I'm such a 'worker of the year' type anyway.

So, we decided to make some cover stories, since we agreed upon total secrecy on the outing. So, I'll be meeting my friend who just happened to drop by KL. And she's gonna go back home for some errands. Sounds solid enough, considering she's done that a lot, and I do have the occasions of taking a raincheck of lunch with my officemates due to friends making a quickie around Klang Valley.

Heck, we really went straight to the movies. And after that, we only made a quickstop to the restroom (well, it was me actually) and to the bookstore (again, all ME) before heading to the carpark. Suddenly, she got a message from her friend, detailing the outfit she's wearing, plus the generous description of how big her companion is (yes, still ME). So, she's like 'omg, kantoiiiiii'. She did managed to cover up to him, saying that she was never at the movies. Didn't know if he bought it, though.

But.............it doesn't ends there....

Got a message from Zaimah, saying that she knew about me at the complex with an 'awex'. Cissss....aku plak yg kantoi. I was taken aback by that. After all, Zaimah has been known to take a few hours off work to 'visit' the shopping complex. The worse thing is, Sabab was there with her. So, it's like sticking a fork in me, cos I'm wayyyyyyyyy past done.

However, after some interrogations from me (more like begging), she confessed that it was her husband that saw me with my officemate. Why in the world is he there, only Lord knows. Guess I have a much more familiar face than I give credit to. I haven't had much chance of meeting Zaimah's husband. In fact, I think I've only seen him twice.

And with the bunch of lots that I call friends, the suffering doesn't end there. They even mocked me that I was 'sepadan' with my movie buddy. Took a hell of explanations to clear things up, that we were only officemates, and nothing more.

But the story doesn't end there....

Went for k-ok with Ong, Abg Farid and the kids at my usual spot. And suddenly I got a call from Hairi, saying who am I hugging on the escalator (it was Amir, my 10 yr old nephew btw). Look around, left and right, top and bottom for that son of a gun. DAMN! He's pretty good in the hide-and-seek game. Well, I guess I'm just meant to get caught the whole day.

To think about it, I was also caught the night before. Went to karaoke (yes.....2 nights in a row) and almost got caught with my students. Thank heavens they saw me at the VCD shop, and not in front of my singing chamber. Or else, I have a tonne of explanation to those ladies too.

It has not been a good day to me. But aside from the kantoi part, I had a blast at the movies and both karaoke sessions.

Conclusion? Got to improve on my stealth ability. Anyone has an invisibility potion I can have? :)

Lies, Deceit and Manipulation

Here this goes...

2 weeks back, Seri told us about a website that was supposebly having the knowledge of knowing whatever is currently going on with you, like who are you sitting next to, what is the color of the shirt you're wearing right now, how many people are in the room....... you get my drift. Well, it was fun for her at first, but as time goes by, the website (or rather, the person on the other end of the website) was spooking the jitters of them folks, claiming that this guy (his name's Peter, btw) has no legs, and all sorts of horrid disfigurement upon his body. There was a time that Peter was also gonna peek out from their bedroom window. And because of that, Seri had to spend the nite at her friend's place, and had to go to work from Ampang.

Aik? Apsal lak aku tetibe nk blog dlm English ni? Pttnye kene la campur. Br la nmpk masyarakat majmuk. Ok.......sorry, a wee bit of commercial there. So, balik ke story asal.

So, minah ni expect la kitorg try web peter ni, which aku kate aku maleh nk try, sbb bnyk lg bende berpekdah yg aku leh buat. Tapi mlm tu si Faisal bleh lak nk try site tu, and bgtau kat diorg the findings of teh web. Siap Seri kate nk tdo ngan mummy dia lg. Pergh, dasat jgk penangan web ni.

So, beberapa hari slps tu, di satu weekend yg agak boring la jgk, teringat lak pasal web ni. So aku pun google la. Suddenly, ader lak link on the 'trick behind peteranswer'. Hmmmmm....... yg tu lak aku click dlu. So, godek punye godek punye godek punye godek punye godek punye godek......... br la aku tau trick dia tu. Cis, Seri ni dh kene con la plak ngan kawan dia. Teruk jgk dia kene con, smpi x brani tdo mlm lak.

So, immediately aku call Faisal. Sound kat dia yg aku dh tau dh trick dia. Faisal suruh diam, and suggest yg kitorg teruskan con the girls. Hmm......menarik jgk. But if we're gonna do it, might as well we do it my way. Since I think I make a better con artist that Faisal. So, biar la kejap dlm 2-3 hari (xleh nmpk obvious), and still pretending that I hadn't the faintest clue about this site.
So, every now and then, we brought it up here and there. And apparebtly Qlah also has been dabbing around with the keyboard a bit kat web peter ni. Sampai la satu malam tu, Faisal suda ym aku, sbb dia dh naik terkujat jgk. Si Qlah ni tunjuk la yg dia saje tanye pasal plat number Faisal. But instead of displaying his car licensce (which is gonna be so obvious), kuar lak kat website tu number plat lain. But the rather creepy part is, kuar plat moto dia yg dh lame dia x pakai. So, Faisal tanye la aku, mcm mane lak si Qlah ni leh tau pasal moto dia. Aku seperti biase, mmg la buat xtau jer. Sbb in the 1st place, bkn idea aku pun nk con2 org ni. Better aku con sorg2, sbb ssh nk plan ngan org.

Sampai la 2 nights ago kat Old Town, when I mention that peter skg ni layan Faisal jer, there out of the blue, Seri sound kat Faisal yg si Faisal ni dh tau trick website peter. Hmmmm, interesting turn of events. So, ibarat mcm selama ni Seri cube nk con kitorg. And as usual, she didn't know that I already know, since they still think that I haven't gone through the site.

Then, another 180 degrees happened last night. Aku tgh dinner ngan Qlah, and told her a bit of what we had been planning. AND......she confessed that she too, knew about the website trick. But what suprises me is, dia dapat tau plat Faisal sbb dia pasang spy kat Faisal. Pergh, si Boy dh ade stalker sendiri. Powerrrr tuuuuuuuu. Tapi bile aku tanye Qlah, dia xnk lak bgtau spy yg mcm mane lak tu.

So, in short:

  • Seri probably lied to us at the very beginning lagi. Dasat jgk dia pura2 ngan menjerit la, tdo ngan mummy la. Tertipu jgk la aku ngan acting dia.
  • Faisal was thinking about conning the girls into scaring the boots our of 'em. Even though the plan didn't worked, but mmg dh lay out satu plan yg agak gempak, and will probably take another month to fully executed.
  • Qlah lak buat2 mcm xtau jer pasal website tu. Tapi bleh lak kuar no moto Faisal, sampai si Boy ni tertanye2 lak mcm mane nombor moto dia leh kuar. Padahal pasang spy.
  • Me? Aku pura2 buat2 xtau jer. Cume ader la involvement dalam nk con the girls ni.

In conclusion? WE'RE A BUNCH OF LIARS

The Story Continues...

Continuing from my last post...

So, after a bit of surfing, we went again for a drink. Lepak kat Naseer Tmn Pekaka lak this time. And around 11.15, Ajib n Mom reached Pekaka and we drove back to Lake Town. Had myself a treat at the bar before went in around 2am.

So, the next morning felt really fast. Went downstairs for breakfast around 8. And soon after, we had to checked out in order to reach Nibong Tebal by 11. But not before I booked for the returning guest package, which I think is a sweet deal at RM115 per night.

Reached Nibong Tebal to my late dad's distant cousin, Pakcik Samad. Gave him the details about the engagement arrangements, and off we go to Relau, Kedah (which is only 15 minutes away).

Reached there slightly after noon with 5 trays of gifts. Wasn't paying attention though to the details, as I was the designated amatuer photographer. But I think they agreed on RM7.5k of hantaran, and a mas kahwin of RM1052. Seems that they purposely wanted a non-round number. What the heck, as long as both agreed on it.

The talk was much faster than I thoughted it would be. Probably pre-arrangements were already made even on the night before. Which is why technologies nowadays are simply a blast. Who needs to 'merisik' when we have means of communication to make things smoother. Not saying that merisik is no longer applicable. but at least it saves an extra trip to the girl's house.

Initially, my uncle suggested that we stayed at Concorde Shah Alam after the engagement. At least we made 2/3 of the journey already. And since Nawal is in Shah Alam, her normal 'kepochi' attitude would tend to lead to a lot of questions about what went earlier. Plus, the hotel's FREE! :)

Sadly, it's fully booked. So, might as well we head on straight home. Pilahdelphia of my mom and Ajib, and Kajang for me. So, my touchdown was at 15 to 7. And maybe due to the tireness (I drove, btw), didn't even made it to watch Buletin Utama. In fact, I slept through Nightline as well. Woke up at 2.30am, and went for 'dinner' at 4am in As-Salam.

In short, my brother's happily engaged at last. Hope they'll have a magnificent wedding, and a more spectacular life together. But that's not gonna happen till end of May.

Therefore, here's Podek....signing off

The Day The Earth Stood Still

So, berjaya la aku bangun dengan awalnya pada pagi smlm (Khamis). What did I do? Called as many friends as I could who's working outside of Sgor, and bgtau diorg yg aku tgh tensen giler sbb xtau ape nk buat pada hari cuti ni. Semuanya dibalas dengan kata-kata 'manis' oleh diorg. Biasak la, time ni la nk mendajalkan org2 yg aku kenal ni. Ntah2 time state diorg yg cuti, sure aku kene taro karang.

Went for breakfast and bought 3 newspaper - Utusan, Metro n NST. Mintak2 la ade berita pasal MCC yg kitorg menang smlm, walaupun x menang grand prize. Cheh, hampagas tul. Metro jer yg kuar news, tu pun pasal MNP ajer. Ni yg buat aku bertambah bengang ni. Xper la, biar la aku mengangkat diri nnt.

Lupe lak nk cakap, smlm abis phone bill aku bermsg2 ngan boss aku yg kat NZ. Bkn aper, dia dh pesan aritu, klo dh ade berita jgn lupe sms dia. So, berduyun la msg2 aku dgn dia bertanyekan details on what went on the day before. Siap mintak aku tuliskan email bagi pihak dia lg. Aparaa, tu pun nk suruh pencacai mcm aku ni tulis. Xper la, at least aku ader la jgk play a part dlm menulis email ni. hehehe

So, bnyk aku mengabiskan hari aku ni dengan melepak, tido, dan buat report on MCC. Nk kene hntr kat buletin UKM (ni pun atas arahan Pengarah Pusat Pembangunan Pelajar yg dtg on that day as UKM's rep). Smpi lupe lak yg sepatutnye aku g ke umah cousin aku melepak kat sane.

Got a call from Pakcik. Ajak tgk wayang. Cite die??? Tgk jer la title blog aku tu. Aku ok jer.....lgpun tgh sangap tahap maksima ni.

Since terlupe nk g umah cousin aku, better aku g skrg than to be late. Alih2 dia kate dia nk g dinner kat Alamanda. Cantekkk la mcm tu. Xyah aku nk travel 2 kali. Lgpun aku nk tgk wayang pun kat sane jgk.

Went there, and x mkn ape2 pun. Sbb b4 that Pakcik dh kate nk mkn after wayang (which will be at midnight). Ok la jgk tu, lgpun x rase lapa lg.

My opinion on the movie? Ok la jgk. Story pun agak menarik walaupun a bit 'out of this world'. Apsal la semua citer alien mesti menunjukkan yg the aliens are a far superior species than humans? But then again, klo x advance, xkn la diorg leh smpi sini kan? Kite smpi skg pun x penah make contact with any lifeforms in space, with with the setup of SETI.

So, pagi td aku pun masuk la keje seawal 7.30 pg. Bukan aper, aku kene blah awal japg. Have to be at home so that my mom can drop by for us to go to Penang for Ajib's engagement. Mcm mane sekalipun we run far, balik2 mesti la jgk sampai ke Parit Buntar ni. Dh la soon-to-be-his-fiancee ni org Sg Bakap. hehehehe. So, reached Bkt Merah Suria Aprt at 2pm. Checked in and g tgk Uda jap kat water park. Then patah balik ke aprt and gerak with mom ke PB. Singgah la ke umah mane2 yg patut before they went on their way to Penang for the final preparations for the hantaran. Aku lak yg mmg born, bred and raised in PB ni stay back so that aku leh nk melepak2 jmp member aku. Call Anuar, x angkat lak. So, next best thing, aku call la Wan Dut Dut yg durjana tuh. Klo dh spesies durjana tu, mmg sentiasa free jer. Mmg xder harga diri langsung :)

So, melepak la kitorg dari satu kedai mamak ke satu kedai mamak yg lain. Rupenye mamat tu dh angkat laptop. Dell lak tuuuuuuuuuuu. Pergh, power tul sahabat aku sorg ni. Bile la aku nk beli laptop pun, xtau la aku. Then, setelah boring ke kedai mamak, melepak la kejap ke cc. And aku pun menulis la blog ni.

And it continues......... tungguuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Winning Two Best Categories In MCC

Needless to say much. The picture says how we fared in the Maxis Mobile Content Challenge. Sure......we didn't win the grand prize. But considering we are engineers playing in IT turf, I already feel like a winner. Hope the others share my sentiment as well.

Congrats to all.

Hours Before MCC's D-Day

Well, the Aidiladha went on smoothly.....almost. There was a small misunderstanding among the parentals, which in the end spoiled the Raya mood. Don't feel like saying about it much, but I can simply say that this year's Korban could have been better.

Also earlier today, I managed to maintain my regular clock in time to work, even though I was from my mom's. Kinda nice to start off work by saying to my mom: "Mom! I'm off to work". Kinda like the old days when I was in the business field. Some might say that I'm a momma's boy. But heck, I am the eldest, and since my mom's alone, it's nice to know that I start my Monday knowing that mom's doing well.

This week'll be a week that I might be blogging a wee bit more that what I usually do. It's mainly because of how this week will turn out to be a pretty hectic one. Started off my Tuesday (Monday's off, you bunch of Forgetful Jones) with the fact that more than half the staff is still in their Raya mood. So, basically I can't do diddly squat about it. Can't send in my application for my leave this Friday, even though I have applied it online. Can't proceed to bring forward my annual leave to next year - which is only 3 weeks away. But I did managed to have some work being done: review my student's setup for their exhibition booth tomorrow, finishing off the final parts of my teaching file, got a follow up on my claim to go to Bkt Merah on Xmas, got myself a lesson or two on how to operate the dang Nikon D70s. And to cap it off, managed to spend 3 1/2 hours with Bijan at CeriaBox for a concerto ala UKM..... a.k.a. karaoke :)

Tomorrow will be one of the most important days since I landed in UKM. At last, the competition that me, Faisal, Wan Mimi and Fizi partipated in will be announcing its winner. Frankly, the wait has been an extreme pain in the rear end. The boss has been expecting that we could bag this MCC for its glory (talk about no pressure, huh?). I'm really having mixed feelings about this. For starters, the students did deliver some solid, kick-ass ideas for the judges. But then, not all of them could actually have a 100% working prototype. And what was a kill-joy for me was when I went through the competition's website and browsed through its gallery. Some teams (not ours, of course) were successfully displaying the prototype to the juries. Therefore, my opinion? I really can't say here, folks. I really can't say how our chances are. I don't even have the guts to say 50-50. Just I'll have to let the suspense eats me up till the fat lady sings.

This Friday I'll be heading to Penang with Bkt Merah as my pit stop. Tadaaaa......... at last, one of the Shazi's getting engaged. I was really hoping that it's me. Alas, things often never turn out the way we intend it to be, no matter how hard we try. Ah well, have to believe more in Qada' and Qadar than what I usually give credit for. Sometimes, it's things like this that make us think about life, and how we are as His loyal servants. In times like this, I try and try to forget about my ex, saying that it was not meant to be. But 4 1/2 years is not a walk in the park, and the memories will take a hell of a lot longer to be erased from my mind. That is, of course, unless I meet another Miss Right for me. Anyway, Ajeeb's gonna be engaged this Saturday, and I'll be part of the engagement brigade. I'll probably end up being a photographer anyway, but what the heck. Congrats, Jeeb.

I might be spending my Thursday accompanying my nephew to watch Antoo Fighter. Not sure why his parents are not the ones taking him, but I did tell him that I'll take him there. Considering it's a rated PG-13, guess I have to get a seat next to him. Not sure about what I'm gonna do for the rest of my Thursday, so that has yet to be unraveled.

Talking about the last weekend, how I feel right now, and what's to come, made me wanna write something interesting that I came across a few months back. I was taken by these 'words of wisdom', which made me wanna write it down in case I need to look at it in the years to come.

"Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. But today is a gift. That is why it is called the present"

I know........ it's from Kung Fu Panda. But who knows, it might come in handy later....

Guess that's all from yours truly. Stay tuned for more updates in this channel

Rejuvinating Week

This is the first blog yg aku actually write on Blogger. All my previous blogs ni semua ditransfer from my community site. Bukan ape, br perasan yg that blog cume allocate 50MB of space. So, klo mcm tu, dalam beberape bulan lg sure aku dh xleh blogging dh. So, might as well I take the initiative and move while I'm still having a low number of posts.

Well, besok dh Raya Haji. And mcm biase, kitorg xde la buat preparation sgt. Tapi alih2, mcm2 jgk yg aku tgk mak aku buat. Buat pulut kuning, beli lemang. Adik aku pun plan nk masak nasi tomato. Aku mcm biase dengan tugas aku, memakan sahaja ape yg dimasak. hehehehe. Cume japg nk pasang pelita. Maklum la, raye ari tu x smpt pasang. Just read my blog on Raya Aidilfitri that day.

Well, it has been a truly relaxing week for me. Bos aku is on her trip to Aussie the past week, and she'll continue to NZ this coming week. Jadi, bermakna bebas la jgk kitorg selama 2 mgu ni. Maybe sbb bos aku bnyk push us to do work that it made us cherish and rejoice on her departure. Kalau la dia tau ni, mau dia balik lempang pipi aku pegi balik. Just hope that she'll never finds out. hehehehe

Well, on Monday she was still around since her flight was on Tuesday. And aku kene finalise grading untuk kelas yang aku tolong gradekan final paper students. Actually grading dh siap Khamis lepas, tapi since aku ader buat silap sikit (biase la, newbie), maka aku terpaksa la bentang balik grade aku so that it'll be approved by the department. Then, mlm tu bleh lak opismate UKM aku ajak g karaoke. Maybe diorg sedih sgt kot bos kitog nk g overseas ni. So they're trying to cheer themselves up in order to hide their true sadness (Hahahahaha.....yeah, right). X sangka lak, si Qlah (So I've mentioned your name k :) ) ni agak impromtu jgk. But for that, aku berjaya drag these people to karaoke til 2am. Hahahahaha, tu la, ajak aku lagi.

Selasa.............the real fun begins. Tapi masuk pun awal jgk. Ntah la, since bgn awal jer everyday, jadi sangap lak bile dh xtau nk buat ape kat umah. Dh la aku ni spesies yg ssh nk tdo. So once I wake up, dh xleh nk tdo balik (unless aku letih tahap nk hibernate). So, just melepak2 jer kat opis, and njoying ourselves to a long lunch and having evening tea at McD PKNS (Ok.....so it was not tea, but ice cream instead). Malam tu lak aku kuar ngan Ribi ngan Z main snooker. Kalah lagi aku......

Rabu lak, masih melepak2 around opis. So, basically mcm Selasa la jgk. Bnyk melepak2 jer. G lunch kat PKNS lagi, tapi kat Cempaka Rimba. Then Qlah g beli stokin tangan to protect her hands mase drive. Maklum la, drive g umah parents dia tu jauh jgk. So, kene la jage tangan kan? Then mlm tu, aku g reunion ngan Ayen kat KLCC. And nyaris2 aku kene balik Pilahdelphia mlm tu. Umah mak aku tetibe trip, and xleh nk tolak main switch kat fuse box. Dh la mak aku ddk sorg2 jer. Mane la aku x risau. Sib baik after 10 mins, dh ade lektik balik. Klo x, mmg aku drive balik kg la mlm tu.

Khamis, hari kitorg mempergunakan sepenuhnya ketiadaan bos di pej. Aku, Faisal n Qlah made a trip to Midval. Ni actually plan aku, nk g round2 since Malaysian Saving Sale dh on the way. Tapi alih2 aku bali Xmas card jer. Si Faisal lak g beli baju. Qlah la yg paling dasat, beli serum and moisturiser and ape lagi tah.... 500+ dia spend. Then, leh nyesal lak. hihihihi. Tapi mane leh nyesal, kan kulit dh makin lembut. (boleh la aku cakap mcm tu, sbb bukan aku yg beli. muahahahahahaha). And kat sane jgk, aku jmp niece aku. Bleh lak dia x jadi tgk wayang. So, sementara dia tgu kawan dia sampai, dia pun round2 la ngan aku. Ngade2 lak nk handfon SE yg mahal2. Cheh, awak tu skolah lagi, tgu dh keje br beli.

Petang tu after balik from Midval, kitorg melepak ngan Seri kat area Bangi. And si Seri cite pasal a website yg dia bkk mlm sebelumnye. Website ni dh berjaye menggerunkan dia sbb dia mcm tau everything there is to know about she and her friends. Tapi xyah la aku nk elaborate kat sini. Kalau nk tau, google jer peteranswer and korang tau la ape yg aku maksudkan. Malam tu lak aku melepak ngan Faisal and Rahman. Rupenye lps dapat tau pasal peteranswer tu, si Faisal g try lak. Aparaa punye makhluk. Siap g tanye Seri kat mane lagi. Pastu g sakat lak hntr msg kat Seri. Terus Seri kate dia nk tdo ngan mummy dia. Ape la penangan yg peter tu dh buat kat sahabat aku ni.

Jumaat lak aku dh mule terase fatigue from my nights out. So, dengan selambe ngan x malunye, aku mintak Qlah login kan utk aku - Satu lagi perkara jahat yg aku buat utk hari ni. After Jumaat br masuk balik, tu pun sbb ade meeting. Kalau xder, mau aku mintak org logout lak utk aku nnt. So, not much to say about that, unless klo berita aku tdo amat menarik minat korg. Petang tu lak aku ajak Jun g dinner, and dia kate dia bg decision nnt. Tapi smpi kul 8 aku xdpt berita pun from dia. Rase2 dia bz kot. And since umah pun dh kosong, and aku telah mencapai tahap sengal yg maksima, maka dengan jayanya aku pun drive la ke kg halaman yg tercinta. Alih2 dekat2 kul 9, Jun sms lak aku tanye nk mkn kat mane. Terpakse la aku apologize and said that I'll make it up another day.

So, that has been my week so far. Ape yg aku buat? Basically, hampir kosong kerja yg aku berjaya laksanakan. Tapi mgu dpn aku xleh nk cuti. Sbb next Wednesday will be the prize giving ceremony for our Maxis competiion. I'm really crossing my fingers that we mght win the grand prize. Ade la extra bonus nnt. hehehehe

Picnic at Putrajaya

Di suatu petang Rabu yg dingin dan dilimpahi dengan hujan yang renyai, maka 5 insan x semamangnya xtau nk buat ape pada malam tu (except aku, sbb aku ni kene paksa pegi) memulakan perjalanan ke Putrajaya. Plan asalnya nk cycling kat Taman Botani. Tapi sbb ujan, maka kul 7 br sampai ke sana. Kejadahnye nk berbasikal time tu kan? So, since plan asal dh x jadi, maka pergi la ke Dataran Putra sbb nk makan piza. mmg pelik pun, sbb mkn piza kat sane. Tapi dh nama picnic, xde la pelik sgt kan?

So, dlm kebahangan malam tu yg x berangin, kitorg pun melantak la ape yg ptt. Padahal plan lps tu nk g round2 kat Putrajaya and amik gamba jer. Pelik…….pelik……. tapi nk buat mcm mane. Opis aku ni sumer dipenuhi oleh insan2 yg stress bak kerna oleh ketua jabatan aku yg tersangatlah hyperaktifnya. Maka tahap stress kitorg sentiasa berada di tahap yg optimum - the ever vague line of sanity. Klo la bos aku bace ni, mau aku kene kerat 18 mcm kes Mona Fandey nnt.

So, making it short, ni jer la gambar2 yang berjaya diambil mase trip tu.

4 people, ang a ghost?

My friend, and her pet 'heads'

Bangunan tu ade tulis 'BUAT KERJA'. Tapi apsal la kite x buat keje ek?

Then, after all the wine and dine, make berpecah la kitorg mengikut haluan masing2. Aku? pergi balik ke opis selepas aku mandi and salin baju jap. Bukan ape, next day tu the dateline untuk aku submit grade utk student aku. Maka memandangkan Prof yg mengajar kelas tu membuat satu blunder dalam answer scheme final exam, and makhluk malang ni plak la yg kene jadi tukang menanda paper, maka terbuang beberapa jam aku untuk solve soalan tu. Dh la aku ni bukan from electrical power background. So letih jgk la nk selesaikan soalan tu. Tensen lak aku.

Tapi syukur la, at least dapat la jgk aku settlekan, even though it costed me an entire night (tapi aku tdo la jgk dlm sejam). At least satu batu besar punya suda tarak dalam ini kapla.

But life goes on still…….

Shackles of Norm

Sometimes, change can be good. You would really look forward to it, specifically if it’s for the better. After all, who doesn’t want a better change, right. All for the best……feeling more satisfied……exceeding what you have the day before……and having a better tomorrow than what you are today. Who wouldn’t want that, right?

Me? I like change. I like to to try new things, go see places (if I can afford it), read something new (now that’s lame). It’s just the world has much to offer us. Of course, what we have here is not eternal. But that shouldn’t stop someone and take a moment and gaze upon what this life has to offer.

Wow. Pretty good at making this crap up. Kinda feels like it’s just not me.

Yup. Definitely not me. Owh well, back to reality now.

People have a certain fetish towards something (NOT IN THAT SENSE OF MEANING, YOU PERVERTS!!!!). Let me make it more tactful. Some people at just a sucker at certain things (AGAIN, FOR THOSE PERVERTS, READ ON FIRST, YOU SONS OF A GUN). That other day an office mate of mine just admitted to me that she has a weakness when it comes to handbags. Last Friday she told me that she was down to a few hundreds left till payday. And on Monday, she treated herself to a 2k handbag (which I don’t know what type, cos she didn’t tell me).

My point is, some people, no matter how strong they might be, will have their kryptonite surrounding their circle of power. They may know it, or they might not. But if it’s there, you better watch out, sports fans. My brother too has this huge obsession for body combat. He’s even thinking of getting a trainer’s license for it, which I think is a swell idea. Heck, if you’re gonna do something you like, might as well make some money out of it, huh?

And like most of the 6.7bil people roaming our third Earth (quoting from Thundercats) here, I’m not spared from this disease. Well, it’s better to admit it now than living in a world of denial. Therefore, I’M A HANDPHONOLIC, AND I’M NOT AFRAID TO ADMIT IT. hehehe. Yeah, I just can’t get my hands off the latest in the mobile market. Maybe……I’m not as bad as I think. After all, I’m not making that much money. And as of now, I only have this sickness on an annual basis. But getting an N95 last year, and changing it to a Touch Pro last month can be said to be rather edgy. And the worse news is, I think I’m getting worse. Currently, I browsing around for phones with an 8MP camera. And from what I’ve been through, I might get one in a month or two…….we’ll see. LG Revoir does look kinda nice for now :)

But that’s not what I intended to blog here. Today I’m gonna let my frustrations out on one of our mobile service providers. Something I wanna write about last week, but couldn’t because I was writing about my accident. In that matter, I’m doing just great on the recovery process.

Earlier this month, I received 2 sms’es from one of my service providers (yes, I have 2 numbers). One is offering me free SMS when I top up, and another offering a 50% credit when I topup. Both of these offers had sparked an interest in this thin hollow shell I call my brain, in which I comply. So, I topup twice in this month…..something I don’t usually do.

But as shitty as they are, the provider (hell, who do you think I am to make the service provider anonymous) did not fulfill their end of the bargain. So, I made a call to Maxis Call Center (see, told you) and lodged complaint of it. The thing that really bugs me is, they didn’t even acknowledge that the free credit offer exists, saying that they don’t have record of that type of offer.

For starters, I had to topup twice in order to get the promotion given (which is fine since I know what I getting into). But not only did I have to curse around to get what’s tightfully mine, but I have to pay in order to get it. I don’t know about Celcom, but I think it sucks that Maxis is charging their prepaid customers to pay in order to get to their support service. I mean, Digi can give it for free, so why can’t they?

That’s is the problem in this country. When a monopoly exists, then that gives them ultimate power as a puppet master, and they can just pull our strings and move us at their will. I mean, look at Streamyx right now. No one can compete them in terms of ADSL provider, so they can suck as much as they want, and no one could do anything about it. I know we have our HSDPA like Celcom and Maxis, but being the hardcore downloader that I am, I can’t simply live on the mobile providers, especially at the quality that they give us at the moment.

I have thought of switching from Maxis over the last year. However, as much as I like change, there’s just some things that I just can’t do. I can change my phone as I pleases (of course, at the mercy of my budget constraint), but I just can’t simple change my number. Maybe it’s the professionalism in me, but changing my numbers is just not in me. When I give out a number, I prefer it that it stays. I don’t need to give it out a couple of time per year, plus I dont’t have to do a lot of business cards. hehehehe. Maybe the norm in me has bind around me so tight, that I just can’t simply break free.

And for that reason, when MNP was released, I couldn’t help myself but cheer on. And for that, for what I have experienced being a Maxis customer for 6 1/2 years, I can say that I can finally be free. And for Maxis, so long and good luck for losing a customer.

Now comes the million dollar question………..where shall I jump to?

Tebabooooooooommmmmmmm

Aku actually dh nyaris2 nk blog pasal ketakpuashatian aku terhadap sesuatu bende. And planningnye aku nk blog smlm. Tp since berlaku sesuatu insiden, terus aku scrap blog tu, and nk cite pasal something else. Lgpun bende yg intially aku nk blog ni pun bleh jer aku nk cite lps2 nih.

So, weekend aku kali ni agak packed la jgk. Few months back, aku ader janji ngan niece aku, nk amik dia utk semester holidays. And since last Friday dia dh abis final exam dia. Maka aku pun plan nk gerak terus on that friday night. Tapi berkat kecerdikan aku yang kdg2 aku rase agak rendah jgk, aku bawak moto pegi keje Jumaat tu. And ptg tu hujan la sampai kul 9.30 mlm. Terrer jgk aku bab planning ni. Time aku nk drive panjang, bleh plak bawak moto g keje.

Maka setelah aku sampai ke umah dlm kul 10, terus la aku bersiap dengan kadar cepatnya dan aku pun berjalan (silap, drive…klo jalan, mgu dpn la br sampai) ke PB. Ape2 hal pun, kene la singgah jmp member2 dlu. And at 2.30am, touch down la aku ke kg aku. Sib baik la ader sahabat yg bernama Wan Dut Dut yg sememangnya perangai mcm kelawar. So, mlm tu aku melepak la ngan dia and crash kat umah dia mlm tu.

Pg soknya, aku pun mula la meronda2 mencari kawan2 yg dh lama aku x jumpe. Tapi maklum la, dh stat cuti skolah, so sumer ader jer hal…..and eventually, by 1.30pm, aku dh xde member nk jmp dh. So, aku pun ubah plan aku. Inatead of going to pick my niece up during the night, ptg tu jgk aku shoot ke Arau utk amik dia. Dn dengan kuasa bulan (chewahhh, mcm Sailormoon lak. Tapi sure huduh yg teramat sgt klo aku pakai skirt nnt), by 1am aku dh sampai pun umah mak bapak dia kat Putrajaya.

Sok tgh harinya aku pun sampai la kat umah utk melepak2 dan memulihkan tenaga aku yg sememangnya dh nk zero pun. Tp x sampai 3 jam, aku dh kuar balik ngan Lan. Bajetnye nk g Mines jap, sbb nk bli thumb drive. Sekali punye la penuh Mines time tu. So aku pun gerak la ke McD serdang and melepak2 kat sana. Dh lepas lepak tu, nk g la ke umah aku jap sblm kitorg g ke Sg Long.

So, kat sini la insiden kitorg berlaku. Aku rase better je korg tgk gambar ni, and tau la korg ttg insiden tu.


Justify FullDah la aku duduk sebelah driver

Story dia, kitorg from Serdang, and nk ke Kajang ke SILK. Sekali Lan ni bawak laju jgk. So, terus hilang control kete dia. Mmg mase kete tu nk masuk ke longkang, cuak jgk la aku. Mane x nye, klo la masuk from one corner, mau terbunag kete tu. Xtau la pakcik ko ni nk jadi ape. But thank God both tyres masuk ke longkang at the same time. So, mmg bersyukur la sgt2 that nothing worse had happened.

Kete nmpk jer mcm ok, tapi tgk jer la kat sebelah tayar aku nih.


Kalau la aku jadi tayar ni, mau kene major operation ni

So, in fact, abis rosak sumer plan aku ptg tu. ingatkan after g Sg Long, nk g balik Putrajaya, and kuar mkn ngan member aku. Last2 by the time kitorg settle ngan towing, police report, and g bengkel, dh kul 8 lebih dh pun. Dh la nk hntr Lan g umah dia lg.

But all in all, we’re lucky to walk away without any scratch (tapi not without any pain later that night). And at least kitorg dapat la merase mcm mane perasaannya menjadi kete rally, walaupun untuk beberapa saat. heh heh heh

Ok la folks. Nk cite bnyk pun x gune jgk. Lgpun cite pasal eksiden, bukannya menarik sgt pun. Nnt la next blog aku nnt, aku cite pasal ape yg aku initially nk blog earlier last week.

Blogging Dari Insan Yg Tak Sihat

Hari ke-empat aku masuk keje…..well, sort of. Aku tak berapa sihat since these past few days. Selsema yg agak major la jgk. At first, I try to let nature takes its course, and getting healed naturally. Alas, that was a foolish dream. Makin lama, makin teruk lak condition aku ni. Malam semalam badan aku jadi ketakselesaan yang maksima. Tapi aku cuba la jgk gagahkan diri aku yang tak gagah langsung ni untuk pegi keja.

Ader la aku bertahan dalam 1/2 jam ajer. Serius aku dh x tahan ddk dalam aircond. Terpaksa la aku merempitkan diri g klinik, dengan harapan dapat la ape2 makjun kuat ker, makjun cap potrat nyonya meneer ker (ni 80an punye makjun, klo aku mkn pun mesti sakit perut punye, pasal dh expired). So, aku pun menerimalah 5 macam ubat (batuk, selsema, antibiotik, tahan sakit, dan sakit hati) dan sekeping warkah bernama MC. Cheh, MC jgk aku. Ingatkan bleh la mengharungi tahun ni tanpa cuti sakit.

Lalu aku pun pulang la ke rumah dengan badan yang mmg x rase best langsung. Oh well, rasenye klo aku g keje pun, silap2 aku manjang je tdo. Better aku tdo kat umah dari tdo kat opis. Setelah membaham sumer ubat-ubatan, maka lena la aku dibuai……………………… mana ader buai la, aku tdo atas tilam jer

Tu jer la kot cite aku. hahahahahahahaha.

Seminggu Berhari Raya

Hari pertama bekerja selepas raya………… sememangnya aku berada di tahap mandom yang maksima. Walaupun begitu, aku berjaya jugak harungi hari ni, taktala aircond opis aku gagal berfungsi dan sumer org terase mcm kerbau salai (aku jer kot yg rase mcm tu). Namun, dengan kuasa portable hard disk aku, berjaya jugak aku menelan gaji yang tidak mampu melihat dengan menonton cite2 download aku secara berterusan. HIDUP Internet!!!!

Well, klo aku nk cite pasal raya aku tahun ni, mmg panjang pun. Tetapi biase la, memandangkan mood kerja aku terbawak2 ke mood blogging aku jugak, maka aku rasa better kalau aku wat rumusan karangan ajer kali ni. Ok la tu….kalau ikutkan mood aku time keje td, haram aku x menaip langsung. Better aku smbg tgk citer download aku jer

So, here it goes…

  • Member aku punye member (supplier mercun aku) dh kene cekup polis. Abis plan aku nk main mercun magic ball tahun ni. Sib baik aku x bayar lagi. Anyway, stock tahun lepas ade lagi. Lgpun pakcik aku pun ader bawak stock jgk. Thunderclap pun jadi la….
  • Menipu mak aku. Tapi ni baik punya tipu, and bukan aku niat tipu pun. Planning asal nak sampai umah time sahur hari Ahad. Tapi hari Sabtu pukul 3.30 aku dh terconggok depan pintu umah mak aku dah.
  • Pasang lampu lip-lap, pasang TV LG Scarlet, and pasang angan2 nk beli HTC Touch Pro.
  • Insiden berlaku kat umah makcik aku, ader 2 amoi tetibe masuk umah dia, tutup pagar and kuncikan diri dlm kete. Rupenye kene kejar ngan beberape mamat ni. At last, pakcik ngan cousin aku hntr diorg g polisia kantora (balai polis lah)
  • Bergerak ke LCCT kul 9.30 mlm untuk amik adik aku yg balik beraye from Miri. Br jer sebulan stat keje sane, dh kene balik sini dh…… nk wat mcm mane, mak ko dh suruh balik.
  • Atas sebab malas nk carik sampin (btul ke aku eja ni?), aku spice up sikit songkok aku. Lgpun aku pakai baju tahun lepas je. Xyah la nk menggatal nk melaram lebih2. Janji ade baju Melayu, dh la.
  • Beli diesel (sebagai ganti minyak tanah), tapi x pasang pelita. Bodo x aku? Tapi ade alasan beb, ujan laaaaa…..
  • Pegi semayang raya, tapi x semayang raya. For the 1st time dalam sejarah aku, masjid melimpah2 sampai nk semayang kat luar pun xleh. X caye? Tanye la 40 org lebih kat situ yg senasib ngan aku.
  • Bawak mcm2 dokumen, bajet nk wat keje. Tapi berjaya untuk tak buat satu haprak pun. Bikin berat beg ajer…
  • Kene soalan cepumas lagi………bile aku nk kawin? Sabar jer la ek, Jue Aziz pun aku suruh sabar jer. muahahahahahaha…..x sedar diri betul aku ni.
  • Member baik aku from PPP and awek aku dtg beraye kat umah. Bestnyerrrr….
  • Sabtu pagi kul 5 aku gerak balik g LCCT. Hntr adik bertuah aku ni g balik Miri. Bestnyer tgk kete xder langsung atas highway.
  • Touchdown kat umah aku pada hari Ahad pukul 12.30 mlm

Dh la kot. xder ape aku nk citer nih. Lgpun aku nk sambung tgk download aku balik

One Week To Go

Pergh…. diam x diam, dh 24 hari dh kita semua berpuasa. Tgl 6 ari jer lagi pun. Well dont worry, sport fans. Kejap jer nnt, dh masuk raye dh. Time tu semua setan2 datang balik buat keje2 diorg, termasuklah 2-3 makhluk yg aku kenal sgt2 nih. hehehehe

Well, maybe for me, my raya will still be not as merry as previous years. Ever since we moved to n9, dh hilang sikit semangat raye aku. Don’t get me wrong, bukannya aku x suka beraya kat kg. But I’ve been bred and raised in the mean streets of Parit Buntaq (mean la konon). And all this while, kat situ la aku anggap kg aku. Lgpun my late dad pun asal sane jgk. Jadi bile dh pindah ke n9 after being up north for 24 years, jadi mcm aku kene start my social life kat sane all over again. Dh la xder member, nk bermember2 kat sane pun x smpt. Maklum la, balik pun weekend jer. Tu pun bukan semua weekend pun.

But nonetheless, I’m still looking forward for raya. And probably more than ever this year. Mom’s been doing a lot of upgrading towards the house since we start living there. Furniture baru, jalan tar baru, pokok bunga baru…… and mcm2 lagi la yg baru. As the eldest, aku pun kene la play a part in creating the raya mood for our family. Maklum la, umah aku ni bnyk badut sarkis (sorry Ajeeb). Ok, so I lied. Ade sorg jer badut pun. Tapi badut ni suda brapa tahun training. Jenis masuk kandang lipan pun bleh bikin show yg gempak. (Aku mintak maaf kat hang time raya nnt la k :P)

But unlike last year, kitorg punye projek dodol xdpt nk dijalankan plak. Maybe time factor la kot. Lgpun aku rase mak aku is currently more interested in having a nice house for raya, rather than preparing our usual more than ever so abundant flavors of food. Tapi bukan la bermakne nnt kitorg jamu tetamu dengan biskut Hup Seng ngan air teh o ajer. Tu mmg nk kene sumpah seranah ngan org nnt. (Tp ok jgk, dapat la pahala diorg kan?) Cume bab makanan ni, xder la prepare nasi briyani ker, ayam masak donga ker….. just some simple raya cuisines yang xperlu la kitorg nk slave ourselves to make.

Unlike last year, cuti raya aku kali ni panjang la sket dari tahun lepas. Since tmpt keje aku ni bg annual leave sampai 30 hari, bleh la aku pakat nk beraye sampai Deepavali nnt. Pergh……. mmg sakan namanye tuh. Tapi xder la aku sampai bengap sangat nk cuti pnjg sampai camtu. At least lama la lagi dari tahun lepas, mase aku cume ader 8 days of annual leave per year. Nk cuti raye lame2 pun bukannye leh buat ape. Lgpun aku ade sebab nk kumpul cuti aku nnt. But that is a subject for my future blogs.

But all in all, I just want Mom to be happy. She’s been put through a lot of bumps (believe me, major bumps) raising the five of us. And working through a primary school teacher’s salary is really a challenge. Aku yg gaji about 50% lebih dari mak aku dlu pun rase mcm x cukup jer. Btul la ape org tua2 cakap, sorg mak bleh jaga 10 anak, tapi 10 anak blum tentu dapat jage sorg mak. Which is why I have vowed to prove that saying wrong. Tanpa mak (dan bapak aku yang tiada untuk raya kali kedua), xkn aku berada di mana aku berada skg ni.

Alamak……nk prepare sahur nih. So, for my readers (walaupun x ramai, but I appreciate your comments and reading my life’s journey), aku nak ucapkan Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri kat korg. Ape jgk salah silap aku, harap korg dapat la maafkan aku. Sesungguhnya aku hanyalah insan yang xkn lari dari buat kesilapan (walaupun kdg2 aku sendiri yg sengaja nk buat silap tu). Aku pun ingat tahun ni aku nk pasang tekad untuk cube jadi kurang pemarah sikit. Asek berselindungkan alasan yg aku ni org Banjar pun xde gune jgk. Klo mcm tu, sampai ke sudah la aku xkn berubah, tul x? Insya Allah aku akan cuba sedaya upaya untuk lupakan apa aje kemarahan aku terhadap insan2 yg ade dalam senarai blacklist aku ni. Padahal silap2 nama aku pun dalam senarai blacklist diorg. Xper la, yg penting kite cuba nk perbaiki diri kita.

Ok people. Maybe next blog akan ada gambar2 aku melakukan kesalahan (x sure la plak jenayah ke x) di Hari Raya. Br jer kate nk perbaiki diri, bleh plak nk declare nk buat kesalahan…………

Yo!

Hmmm……for fun, I’m going to blog in English this time. Not that I’m tounge tied in my own native language, but sometimes it’s kind of fun to see if I could write fluently in another language. Thank God for me not being that good to write in other languages, or else it’ll be a daunting task to keep on testing my writing skills. muahahahaha

Today will be the 7th day of Ramadan (still a long way to go, sports fans). And as the previous year, I’ve been making it simple in terms of my meals. But I’m still maintaining the amount of intake into this amazingly large mouth of mine, making me to wonder if I’ll ever get to be on a diet. Anyhoo…..me and my housemates (6 jahanam, as I like to refer to out little band of brigades) will be cruising into whichever Pasar Ramadan that we feel like we would have an interest to go (so far it has been only 2), and we’ll buy just enough for break fast and sahur. No kuih, no deserts, and certainly no extra appetite delights. Just some mere dishes to go with rice. Don’t know why, but the seemingly burning desire to buy everything there is to offer buy the stalls have burned out with each year that I grow into. Probably it’s the age, or probably it’s the ever oh-so tightening budget (Raya will be a pain in the rear end in terms of financial needs), but we do manage to keep it less than 5 bucks for both meals. And may I add, it has never reached 5 bucks yet. Kinda cheap, huh?

Well, as I was saying, Raya will be a time where the spendings makes being with a money grubbing chick like a walk in the park. After all, you have your kuih raya that you need to about, green packets for those rugrats, and not to mention the decor that you have to consider. Well, being single does make it easy……. your budget is basically small to nothing. But when you’re the eldest son, and you mom is hoping for the children to chip in, you just can’t help but to cave in. After all, she does stay alone, and her pension isn’t what I’ll say as being rich. But thinking of the sacrifices that she made raising me and my siblings with the pay of a measly primary school teacher, isn’t it time for her to be enjoying raya with her children helping out?

Last year, we managed to make some dodol on our own. And believe me, being my first time, it was all worth it. A bit tired and sore, but worth. And considering that I’ll be going back 5 days before raya, who knows what traditional titbits that I’ll be whipping this year round. Once thing’s for sure, it won’t be dodol. Heard that my mom’s gonna have another project for this year. Can’t wait to see what’s in store.

But this year won’t be as much fun as last year….nope, won’t be as fun as 3 years ago. My brother, sadly, won’t be burning Thunderclaps and eating in our family meals like previous years. Just got called by Petronas on Tuesday, and in a few hours, he was on a flight reporting for his first ever job in Carigali Miri. And considering the circumstances, it’s 98% that he won’t be back for Raya. Lately, it seems that the family is never complete for the event that families should be together to celebrate. But I deeply pray that he’ll find a way to keep the Raya spirit burning fiercely, even though it’s gonna be with his ‘family’ of friends.

Owh well, it’s almost 4am now. I need to be the alarm clock to the Rip Van Winkles in the house, and have our sahur soonafter. Just hope that my vocal cords will be enough to wake those snoring sons of a gun.

P/S: My laptop been damaged from a lightning strike last week towards my LAN port, so I can’t blog from there. Rather lazy to get the file on goodbyes in many languages, so I guess it’s a simple goodbye in English.

Julai dan Ogos

Lama jgk aku x memblog kat sini ek? Bz tu bz la jgk. Tp bkn la sbb aku ni sibuk nk mampus ngalahkan Barrack Obama, tapi agak ketandusan idea untuk merapu kat sini. Rasenyer dh cukup sebulan since aku punye last blog. Owh well, better late than never, tul x?

So, since accreditation kitorg last month, mcm2 la jgk yg dh terjadi kat aku ni. To summarise it all in a few words: aku smpt balik P Buntar tgk member aku kawin, aku dh ader kete dh skg, aku kene lantik jadi jawatankuasa yang aku sorang jer ahli dlm dept aku ni, aku terpaksa attend majlis yg Pak Lah rasmikan, aku officially jadi supervisor utk student aku dalam competition Maxis, aku attend konvo (yg bkn aku terima sijil pun), and last but not least……I’M SOMEONE’S BF

Hmmm…….dh summarise dh rupenye ape yg aku buat dlm sebulan ni. So, xyah la kot nk cite pnjg². Muahahahahahaha. Tapi dont worry, sports fans. Masih bnyk lagi kisah hidup yang aku akan lalui. Cume xtau lg la nk lalu ikut jalan mane lagi. Tapi just for info korang, aku kene lak jadi MC utk satu competition peringkat kebangsaan next year (punye la cepat diorg dh carik MC). Tergezut jgk la aku. Siap terpintal urat kepala lutut kiri aku ni. AKU??? MC??? sore pun mcm itik kuak air, ade hati nk jadi MC. National level lak tu. Well, it’s their choice, their funeral. Jgn lak nnt tetibe berkumpul sumer itik² dlm Malaysia ni dh la. Tapi ok jgk, leh jgk aku mkn roasted duck. Lame tuuuu aku dh x mkn. Last time pun makcik aku yg open table. Nk harapkan aku yg bergaji ciput ni, tulang itik jer la aku mampu beli.

Well, weekend ni aku kene attend satu lagi konvo. Tapi kali ni aku jadi tetamu lak. So cukup la cycle konvo aku tahun ni. Dh jadi ahli penerima, ahli perarakan besar, ni lak jadi tetamu. Tgu lak cycle aku kene ddk atas pentas lak. Mane la tau berkat doa sumer, plus dilimpahi rezeki dari Yg Maha Kuasa, aku plak la yg bagi sijil kat org nnt….hehehe, berangan nk mampos. Ok ppl. Til we meet again. And hopefully……soon enough

Air Laut Bertambah Masin, Kek Pokan Port Dickson

Actually blog ni aku pttnyer wat mgu lps. Tapi disebabkan aku asek stay back jer kat opis, xder masa lak nk menulis blog ni. So, br la mgu ni aku dapat nk memerah otak aku untuk menulis karangan ni. And maybe, klo dizinkan Allah, sok aku akan blog pasal event weekend br ni.

So, 2 weeks ago aku kene g bengkel kat PD. Biasak la, accreditation pun dh dekat. So, kene la prepare diri sekor2 ni. Jadi, di petang Jumaat yang terik, bertolak la kitorg ke PD. Ingatkan klo dh g kursus ni, sampai petang jer slalu. So mlm ader la time untuk membuat aktiviti. Alih2 kitorg kene sampai kul 11. Tapi nk wat cam mane, dh diorg yg set time mcm tu. Terima jer la, kan?

Sesampai jer, nampak la meja pool. Ape lagi, pekene la seround. Then petang tu, aku pun jadi la pemain beach volleyball. Aku yg berat ni pun leh lompat ker? Tapi yg klakarnye, punye la berat aku ni sampai kaki leh terbenam kat pasir. Cheh! terjatuh sambil makan pasir lak aku.

Berposing lepas main beach volleyball

Then, mlm tu bermule la bengkel kitorg. Tapi nk story pun, bkn korg nk dgr kan? aku pun malas nk cite. So, even though dh lewat after that, kitorg masih jgk kuar g round2 kat PD melepak, and around 1+ am, balik ke bilik sambil main daun (tapi tarak judi oooo…….haram) Then, Sabtu pun tiba la dengan jayanya. Aku pun prepare la diri aku untuk bengkel yang sure ngantuk punye. Dh la sampai kul 11 jgk. TAPI…….. berkat terrernye department aku (biasak la, masuk bakul angkat sendiri la. Nk harapkan korang angkat, saper la yg sanggup kan?) Alih2 kul 5 dh settle sumer. And for that, kitorg free la sampai check out sok. Ape lagi, berjoli sakan la kitorg.

Terjun laut dulu, and member aku mintak la aku lambungkan dia. Aku pun tenggelam la dalam laut, walaupun sikit punye besar punye pelampung yg aku dok carry ni. Tapi punye la bangang member aku ni, bleh lak dia xleh nk terus panjat atas bahu aku. So, dia mcm mendaki2 atas blkg aku ni. Cipetkong punye sahabat, berbirat blkg aku. Tapi at last dapat la jgk pun. Main lagi beach volleyball petang tu (And btw, team aku menang on both days….pelik, pelik).

Then, department aku sponsor lak BBQ mlm tu. Xleh tahan aku tgk sotong bakar. Meleleh tuhhhhhh…….. After that, pekene lagi pool 1-2 round ngan foosball, then 11 of us bergerak g marhaban (bahasa yg agak sopan untuk ‘karaoke’). Mmg btul la PD ni pekan koboi, baru kul 1 karaoke dh ttp. Dh la 11 org yg g. Aku nyanyi 1 lagu jer. Actually 2 lagu, tapi both aku duet, so setengah-setengah la. Pastu, g la hangout lagi sampai la kul 3.

Besok paginye, aku berjaye menidurkan diri seperti kayu tunggul mati. Tapi at last, turun jgk la aku ke pantai untuk kali terakhirnye mase bengkel ni. Kalau org main carve nama kat pokok or simen, aku carve kat pasir jer. Maklum la, x baik vandelisme ni.

Siap cap tapak kaki lagi kitorg letak

Tu jer la pun yg aku dok buat kat PD. Biasak la, keje pun keje jgk. Tapi kene la have fun kan? Dh la tuh, mata pun berat skt ni. Sok klo smpt, aku blog pasal aku balik Penang lagi.

Sejak akhir-akhir ni, aku dah stat nk drift g ke lagu2 70an plak. Makin old school la aku gamaknyer. And rupenye, bukan Alleycats ajer penyanyi India yang dok nyanyi lagu Melayu ni. Ader ramai jgk yg seangkatan ngan group berambut sarang tebuan ni. Cuma diorg x der la continue singing pun. Antaranya macam Ben Nathan, n Gingerbread. Tapi satu lagu ni, lirik dia cukup best sgt aku rase. Saje la aku nk letak kat sini. FYI, this is a song by Chris Vadham. Nak lagu dia, pandai2 la korang carik.

Jangan kau hujani dengan pertanyaan
Kerna pasti akan mengecewakan
Fahamilah pengertianku ini
Setiap insan punya perasaan

Setiap cinta perlukan pengorbanan
Walau sekejam ini yang kulakukan
Sanggup berpisah demi kemanusiaan
Asal kau bahagia oh masa depan

Cintailah dirinya kerna dia lebih sempurna
Apalah ada padaku, hanya nyanyian dalam sepi

Renunglah sejenak bezakan antara
Belian dengan kaca mana lebih berharga
Pandanglah ke atas keluargamu di sana
Turutkanlah kehendak mereka

Biarlah ku sendiri bernyanyi dalam sepi
Anggaplah diriku sepotong mimpi
Usah kau tangiskan pada perpisahan ini
Pergilah kepadanya telamat tinggal

Omen, and Then More Omen

Satu blog yg bodoh sket ari ni. Tapi aku pedulik hape. Aku punye blog, aku punye suke la kan? Ish ish ish, kejam dan sadis btul aku ni.

Well, tgh hari td aku balik sbb aku kene g PD utk melawat org kat TNBG. So, aku pun riding la balik ke rumah. Dan, tetibe aku nampak la odometer kat moto aku. Pergh, kene amik gambar ni.....heh heh heh


Pergh, sumer no 6 tuh. Mmg tersentak lak kejap aku. Tapi yg tensennyer, aku dh dekat sgt2 nk sampai umah. Ingatkan leh la tangkap gambar ni kat umah. Alih2 kene tangkap kat tepi jalan jer ha….

Aiseh…..tu jer simpang umah aku. Leh ker aku angkat jer moto ni?

So, bergerak la aku sampai kat umah. Kat garaj moto umah aku, aku tgk la odometer aku balik.


Aisehmen, dh tak 666666 lagi dh. Tensen tul

Me and Kellie Spells Doom

Maka berlakulah cerita ini pada pagi Sabtu lepas. Lepas aku breakfast, aku pun setia la menanti mak aku datang ke Kajang. Sampai jer sini, aku pun bertolak la ngan mak aku menuju ke Toronto. Bukan aper, nk amik adik aku yg akhirnya berjaya meng’complete’kan degree dia kat sana.

The last time mak aku datang melawat adik aku ialah masa dia hntr si hamlau ni register kat sana. So, mmg x pnah dtg pun after that. Adik aku pun dh kate kat mak aku, since mak aku g mase hntr dia, so it’s most fitting that she is back to pick him and his stuff up. Maklum la, family aku ni bkn la senang pun. So xder saper la yg ader kete time belajar. Tapi tu la yang menjadikan kitorg ni belajar erti susah payah dalam hidup. It made us tougher people.

Jadi, nak dijadikan citer, masa on the way nk g Toronto tu, timbul la idea gila aku ni. Aku pun tanye la mak kalau dia nk g melawat Kellie’s Castle x. Bukan aper, aku ni spesies yang mmg sentiasa nak amik tau. At least selepas ni, aku tau la mcm mane rupenyer Kellie’s Castle tu. Adik aku yg 5 tahun ddk area sane pun x penah pegi. hehehe

So, menyimpang la kitorg buat pit stop kat situ. Mak aku terkejut jgk sbb kene bayar kalau nk masuk. Ye la, takkan la nk tgk bangunan x siap pun kene bayar RM4. Tapi bile kitorg masuk, x sangka lak yang actually besar jgk mahligai si Kellie ni. Yang diorg slalu letak kat brochure tu, bangunan depan ajer. In fact, kat blkg ader bnyk lagi structure yang asalnye si Kellie ni dh plan. Agaknyer pasal tu la diorg kate roh Kellie ni masih menghantui istana dia.



Ni blkg bangunan yg korg xkn nmpk punye. Belah kanan tu main building


Ni pun area blkg, but towards the middle of the main building


Yg ni menuju ke kanan, tp masih kat area blkg

Yg ni diorg plan nk buat wine cellar and escape tunnel


Ni la kot hantu Kellie's Castle yg diorg slalu cakap tu


Tengok? Kan aku dh cakap dh?


Tapi all in all, berbaloi la jgk dengan harga tiket yg aku bayar. Sbb at least aku dh tgk satu lagi warisan negara kite (walaupun bukan org Malaysia yg buat bangunan ni).

So, tanpa membuang masa, bergerak la kitorg g amik adik aku, dan barang2nye. Pastu, makan n semayang, n terus cabut balik ke Putrajaya. Actually kitorg ader birthday bash plus bbq mlm tu. Anak cousin aku secara legalnya suda bleh masuk lokap, meminum arak, dan memiliki suami. hehehehe. 18 tahun la tu. Jangan lak dia buat sumer tu dh la. Except bab carik laki tu la, yg tu aku no hal.

So, ceria la dia sbb dh brape tahun x sambut birthday party. ade uncle dia bg thumb drive…….hmmmm, ntah hape lg dia dapat, aku pun x sure. Tapi uncle dia yg kat sini xdapek lg kasi dia hadiah. Maklum la, gaji ciput lagi. Tapi dont worry, nnt uncle kasi hadiah besar gedabak punye k

So, setelah melantak bagai lori simen yg menelan segalanya (termasuklah beg simen tu), balik la aku ke umah yg tercinta. Sekali Ahad petang tu bleh demam lak aku. Sampai la ke hari ni aku x kebah2 lagi. Rasenye aku ni kene heat exhaustion kot. Tu la, gatal lagi g melawat Kellie’s Castle time kul 1.30 tgh hari. Berjemur nak mampus. Jahat tul Kellie ni.

Jadi, di hari yang mulia ini (aku x pnah anggap pun ader hari yg hina, so sumer hari adalah mulia bagi aku), aku akhirnya ader la mood sket nk blog pasal ape yg berlaku weekend lepas. Dh 2 malam aku asek x larat nk menaip pun. Tapi dalam masa terdekat ni, aku akan blog lagi tentang something yg berlaku semalam. Tgu la aku larat sket k

What A Sunday

Hampir berakhirlah hari Isnin aku dengan penuh keletihan dan kesengalan di badan aku ni. Tapi x kisah beb, lagipun aku cuti aku ni. Br sejam lepas aku touchdown di Pilahdelphia dengan slamat dan jayanya.

Weekend lepas sememangnya satu trip yang takkan aku lupakan sampai bila2. At least, aku dh menapakkan nama aku sendiri kat kg aku. Not being the son of someone, but as my own. They know me as Podek, and not relating me to my dad.

9am hari Sabtu, bertolaklah aku (tapi aku drive tau, kalau tolak bile nk sampai beb) dari Kajang ke kampung aku yang dh aku tinggalkan since April 2007. Sejak mak aku dh pindah from there, br jer sekali aku pegi sana balik. Tu pun tido semalam jer. And kalau dh mak aku ader, xkn la aku nk pergi merempit sana sini, tul x? Kene la excort mak aku ke hulu-hilir, and ke umah kawan2 dia.

So, 1pm aku berjaya sampai di Toronto. Kena amik adik aku lak. Actually aku plan nk pegi sorang2. Biasak la, kalau sorang2 ni, x la nk pikir pasal org lain. Tapi bile mengenangkan yg mamat ni tgh sangap giler babas sebab dh xder orang kat hostel dia (Tu la, gatal tangan apply kursus lagi), bawak ajer la dia kan? Lagipun dia ni bkn aku nk kene jage n tgk pun, ibarat mcm melepaskan anak itik jer la. hahahahahaha. sorry Fanouk

So, kitorg pun sampai la kat Hotel Damai dalam kul 4.30pm. Check in, and settlekan diri jap, and aku pun g la USM passkan barang2 ex-awek aku. Then, aku pun menghala la balik ke hotel. Sekali ex aku msg, ader lak buku member aku yg terlepas masuk dalam kotak dia. Aku pun x cek pun kotak tu. Nmpk mcm dh berikat, so aku assume barang dia la sumer tu. Tapi ape2 hal, kene tdo dlu. Dh la mlm b4 aku tdo kul 5 lebih. Karaoke sampai 4 jam. So aku pun tdo la mcm beruang berhibernasi. Sedar2 jer dh kul 9.30. Mak aih, lamenyer…… settlekan aper yg patut. Then kitorg g balik USM amik buku member aku. N along with the book, ex aku pulangkan balik brg2 aku like dvds, solder set, and my own books.

Lps tu, br la aku stat memberi kejutan elektrik kepada sumer member2 aku. 1st in the list, Wan Dut Dut. Siap cubit perut lagi, punye la x percaye aku ader kat kg. So, aku, adik aku ngan Wan pun melepak la kat Naseer. Aku try lak call Abg Chaq, x angkat lak. Sepentot tul. Dekat kul 12.30, adik aku nk g cc. So aku ngan Wan pun melepak la kat port biase kitorg - stesen kretapi. Ape? korg ingat stesen kretapi x leh lepak ker? tu la, korg mane la tau lepak stesen kretapi. Asek ader lrt ngan komuter jer.

Lepak la sembang ngan Md Noor. Sib baik la that f*ckin old man xder. Malas gak aku nk sembang ngan Pak Long tuh. Tensen jgk la sbb mase tu tren delay. So, every now and then ader la makhluk Tuhan yang masuk ke office stesen tanye bile ketapi nk smpi. And lastly at 1am (delay 2 1/2 jam, patut la diorg tensen jer), tren pun dh nk sampai. Malas nk kaco Md Noor dh, kitorg lepak la plak kat A Rahman. Si Dut Dut pun citer la pasal umah dia yg br kene pecah masuk petang td. Kesian la jgk dgr, bnyk collection dia yg lesap. Duit pun bnyk yg ilang. Sib baik la moto dia x hilang jgk. So, bersembang la kitorg and catchin up on what’s been goin on in kg. Sampai kul 2.45, adik aku sound yg dia dh abis lepak cc dh. Pegi la balik ke Pekaka, amik adik aku, hntr Wan balik umah, and kitorg pun balik la bilik tdo.

Ahad lak bermula la sessi aku memberi kejutan pada insan2 lain. 1st on the list - Anuar n KA. Cikgu skolah tu x angkat lak. Sib baik KA angkat. Tergezut la dia. Ape lagi, ajak bfast la. So, kul 9 sementara tgu dia siap, aku pun g umah parents dia. Everybody ader except Suhaila, Achik and Ida. Terkejut jgk la tgk Boy, dlu punye la rendah. Skg ni dh nk sama tinggi ngan aku. Made me think how much one year can change a lot of things. Memel skg ni dh keje kastam, Liyana lak keje cikgu tadika. Lupe lak nk tanye pasal cc Suhaila kat Sg Bogak. Sampai la KA, g la mkn kat area market. Dia pun nk beli makanan utk family dia. Sembang2 la sampai kul 10.30. Sampai umah parents dia balik, last2 Pak Din bagi buah tangan ubi kayu. Bnyk lak tu. Ni stok 2 mgu pun lum tentu abis. Xper la, beras pun dh naik harga kan?

Balik hotel, bersiap ngan adik aku, n kitorg checkout kul 11.30. Plan nk singgah kedai ikan sembilang En Othman. Ttp lak. G la umah dia. Pun tarak. So, g singgah umah Mr Amir. Wife dia pesan klo dtg ngan mak aku next time, bgtau dia. Dia akan prepare dinner utk kitorg. And judging from the one we had when we moved out from kg last year, I’ll make sure to be there on an empty stomach.

Hmmm….. then g umah Mak Zah. Xbnyk yg story. Cume dia tau cite pasal umah mak aku from Aishah Bibi. Then, mase aku nk g mkn, Sanul lak at last msg aku. Aku pun bagi la kejutan seterusnya. Then, dia pun join kitorg mkn kat Terapung.

Balik lak, kitorg kejutkan Yon next. Then dgr la citer pasal dia eksiden. Kesian lak yg dia mg xtau langsung aper yg jadi. One minute dia nk sampai exit Jawi, then tetibe blackout. The next minute dia dh kat hospital. 5 jam dia koma. Tapi yg lagi kesian mase dia tgh bengong sikit. Tapi thank God yg dia dh ok.

Mase nk kuar, terserempak ngan En Othman. Dia srh dtg umah later today. Ok jer. Singgah umah Ann lak, mintak no fon dia utk Ajib. Then, aku dapat satu buah pikiran. Buat aper lak aku buang duit stay kat PB Inn mlm ni. Better aku lepak Toronto jer. Adik aku pun ok jgk. So, tinggalkan brg aku kat umah Abg Chaq, g cuci keter, and singgah lak umah Pak Ngah Mastor. Terkejut jgk aku dgr dia masuk wad 4 1/2 bln. Raya tahun lps pun dlm wad jgk. Dh la mcm2 sakit, kene santau lak tu. Mmg indah sungguh perangai org Melayu. Kaya dgn rasa dengki dan busuk hati. Skg ni pun kaki dia hitam jer sbb menjang kebas. But at least he can walk again. Dh la pakcik aku ni bujang jer. Ddk sorg lak tu. Nnt jadi ape2, saper la nk tgk2kan dia. But I’m glad he’s ok now.

Next stop, Pasar Malam Pekaka. And as i figured, mesti jumpe org2 kg kat sane nyer. Cikgu Husin pun ader, pesan srh dtg time kenduri Shuhaidi bln dpn. Aku kate dia dh send kad kat aku, cuma aku x dpt lagi jer. Tok Mat ngan Kak Intan pun ader jgk. Biasak la, boss aku mase aku saje2 buat keje bakar ikan dlu, mesti la ajak makan hari Isnin. Tapi aku dh plan nk balik mlm Ahad jgk. So, kene la decline.

Lps Maghrib, aku g la umah En Othman. Dh bnyk berubah umah aku…….ops, ex-umah aku ni. Makin lapang rasenye. Tapi diorg pun br jer masuk. Umah pun besar giler. So slowly la klo nk add furniture kan?

Lapang tul kawasan ni. Terase kosong jer.....


Since Anuat n KA x call aku, aku pun melepak la ngan Sanul, Yon n Wan kat Riyas. Kitorg pun merapu, bersembang, mengutuk sampai la kul 2.30. Then aku ngan adik aku pun gerak la g Toronto hntr dia balik. Dia srh aku tdo jer dlu, tapi time 4.30 pagi jalan sure clear punye. So, aku gerak jer terus. Smpi Sg Buloh br rase ngantuk. So, lepak jap tdo kat Jejantas, the br gerak balik Kajang.

In short, it was one of the best days of my life. Terase btul2 mcm balik kg (walaupun dh xder umah dh). Jumpe member yg dh lame x jumpe, jiran2, tgk aper yg berubah kat tmpt aku. Bayangkan la klo aku g smbg blaja nnt, silap2 nnt lagi la bnyk yg berubah.

Yg penting, next month aku kene balik. Kenduri Shuhaidi kene g. Xkn aku nk g side wife dia lak. Mampus aku nk g Sabah. Hmmmm……tapi g Sabah pun menarik jgk.

Hari Terakhir Sebagai 'Profesor'

Hari ni aku xnk tulis pnjg2. Just nk buat kenang2an untuk ofis yang aku dh tinggalkan hari ni. Stat Isnin ni, aku dh kene masuk bilik tutor, and bukan bilik Profesor yang telahpun aku nikmati selama 5 minggu ni. Xper la, nk buat mcm mane kan? Kene la sedar diri tu sket. Xleh la aku nk buat bende2 jahat lagi. muahahahahahaha

Ni la bilik yg aku kene tinggalkan. Sedih tuuuuu.....


Mane la x bengang aku. Nasib baik x jadi bangang jer....

Nangka Busuk Jatuh Motosikal

Hahahahahahaha……………….

Jap aku gelak dulu. Actually aku xnak blog pun ari ni. Tapi disebabkan berlakulah satu peristiwa yang agak bodoh dalam 15 minit tadi, comes an urge to blog about that particular event.

Tiba2 hari ni datanglah nafsu aku untuk makan something yang lain sikit. So, aku pun ajak la housemate aku g KFC Sg Chua. Tak yah la aku citer aku makan aper……sbb bende bodoh ni berlaku masa aku nak balik.

So, tibalah masa untuk aku pulang ke rumah aku yang tercinta. Aku dengan member aku pun naik la moto. Naik satu motor jer…..maklum la, minyak nk naik harga xlama lagi. So have to start pooling (in this case, motorsikal pooling) in order to help in protecting the environment (chewah, mcm pecinta alam sekitar lak. Padahal aku isap rokok tu, ingat cinta sangat ker kat alam tu?)

Masa aku betul2 bergerak jer, tayar moto aku pun berpusing. Betul la kan? Mane ader kenderaan bergerak tanpa tayar dia berpusing? X sampai 1 meter jer, tetiba tayar depan aku lock. Apa lagi, terberenti la motor aku tu. Kitorang cube la untuk stabilkan motor aku supaya x jatuh. And we were able to do so. Then, bile motor aku dh jer stop nk tumbang, aku la plak yg rase nk tumbang. Jadi, dengan perlahan, confident, dan selambernyer, gugurlah aku menyembah bumi Tuhan yang Maha Kuasa. Sib baik motor aku x jatuh jgk. Member aku smpt tahan from jatuh.

Ape lagi, aku pun terus la bangun dengan keadaan muka yang masih terpinga2 pasal aper yg terjadi. Alih2 rupenye aku x bukak lagi mangga yang aku pasang kat disc brake aku. Alahai, bodohnyerrrr……. aku pun bkk la mangga tu. Then, pandangan aku tertumpu lak kat KFC. Dh la parking btul2 depan pintu dia. Nasib baik xder saper yang tgk pun kat luar. Gamaknye nangka yang jatuh kali ni, nangka silent kot. Talak kasi bunyik punya. Jadi, dengan muka yang malu + syukur sbb xder org yang nmpk + kaget + ape2 lagi la, aku pun bergerak la menuju umah aku.

Kesimpulannya, lain kali, jangan terus masuk gear and main jalannnnn jer. Tolak la motor korang sikit dlu. Ala, bukan bnyk pun, x sampai 1 meter pun dh cukup. Kalau la ader yg terkunci, sure dh lock punye nnt.

Adoi, sakit lak kaki ngan tulang rusuk aku. Mau terputus urat kentut aku ni. Jangan sampai kene penyakit kentut berdarah sudah la…….

Masih Gagah Beterbangan

Berakhirlah hari Selasa aku dengan berjayanya aku menanda hampir 30 thesis (ingat senang ke tanda thesis, cube la korang baca around 3000 pages dalam mase kurang seminggu). Mata aku pun dh naik juling ni. Sib baik la blum tercabut dari soket mata aku.

Cuti 3 hari lepas telah aku manfaatkan dengan sebaik mungkin. Sabtu ialah hari di mana aku berjaya pergi ke opis dengan sukarela. Maklum la, bnyk thesis kene mark. Sampai la dkt kul 7 br aku balik. Kalau la boss aku tau, bleh dapat 5 bintang ni.

Hari Ahad lak, aku pegi kenduri member opis lama aku. Kawin jgk dia. Aku la yg ntah bile nk kawin ni. You see, sometimes you reach a certain stage where you wanna see your children happy (and sometimes crying) faces every time you get home. Tapi apakan daya, kita cume mampu merancang. Anyway, sronok jgk tgk dia kene dijulang oleh 6 orang dgn diiringi ngan pukulan kompang. Korang sure penah tgk Musang Berjanggut kan? Ala…..citer P.Ramlee tu. Mase dia ngan Puspawangi nk balik tmpt dia, kan ke diorg kene julang ngan 4 org (yg eventually kene sumpah pakai pakaian Hawaii pompuan tu). Tapi xder la aku mimpi nk kene julang mcm tu. Kalau aku nk jgk, silap2 kene order anak gajah br la leh julang aku.

Mlm tu plak ialah kali pertama aku jejak kaki ke Planet Hollywood. Sebabnyer? Wings main la mlm tu. Original members lak tu. So, tersangatlah rare event mlm tu. Bukan tu ajer, a few artis jemputan pun dtg jgk utk memeriahkan seasana yang dh sedia meriah tu. Kid Search, Sham, Mus, Mel, Hattan. Yang paling aku terkejut, Ito Blues Gang pun ade, siap nyanyi lagu Bernafas Dalam Lumpur lagi.

Sebagai ‘die hard’ rock kapak, mmgnye show ni sesuai ngan jiwa raga bakul aku. Mane la x nyer, Midnight Blues, Jerangkung Dalam Almari, Satelit Puaka, Pentas Opera….sumer lagu ni la yg menaikkan nama Wings mase tahun 97 dlu. And after 21 years, these people are fit to be said as legends. Rock on, dudes. Sampaikan Mel yg dh tabligh pun x menghampakan dalam lagu Lena Diulit Intan dia.


Isnin plak, aku membawak anak2 buah aku g tgk Narnia. Ok la considering that it’s not a movie that I’m expecting to watch. Lebih dewasa, and bnyk la jgk war scene dia. X bnyk la nk citer pasal movie ni. Lgpun aku bknnye movie critic. Better leave the job to professionals. And lepas tu aku smpt jgk la tgk member aku yg br bersalin anak kedua dia. Blum bagi nama lg, so better aku x bgtau la. But diorg dh ader hint on what her name is gonna be. Nnt bile dh confirm, aku bgtau la nama anak kedua member aku ni.

Hari ni plak aku br jer dapat tau yg cek gaji aku bln lepas actually has been issued (Ala, 3 hari jer keje, bkn bnyk sgt pun. Takat belanje mkn nasi lemak bleh la). Tapi looking at my new pay now, looks like I’m gonna be pretty well of in the future. Dh la tahun dpn leh g smbg blaja kat overseas lagi. Best tuuu naik debak besi. I’m just praying that my mom will be able to see her son getting the Dr. title.

Ok la. Dh 7.30 ni. Bau badan aku pun dh macam sireh basi. Better aku mandi pun. Membuang segala kerak daki dan sisa2 habuk yang melekat kat pipi aku yg berkarat ni.

Laporan Mingguan

Hahahahaha……mcm la aku kene buat laporan tiap2 minggu pun. Saje je tulis mcm tu. Actually x bnyk cite yg nk dikatakan pun pasal aku minggu ni. nothing interesting happened anyway.

Cume sepanjang minggu ni, aku memanjang jer kuar mlm. Bkn ape, tetibe lak geng TNB berduyun2 datang ke sini mcm ikan sadin dalam laut plak. Dh la ader yg kene kursus seminggu, mgu ni pun ader Karnival Sukan TNB. So, ramai la the old geng yg aku asek jumpe, and asek ajak aku kuar minum. Bapak orang, mak orang, soon to be bapak org, soon to be mak org, dan jgk org biasa…… semua ader. Siap aku leh plak masuk keje lmbt smlm. x pasan alarm langsung. padahal klo alarm aku bunyi, kelawar yang bertenggek kat luar umah aku pun leh gugur sekor2 ibarat buah nangka busuk. Tapi nk wat cam mane, dh aku dlu ddk kat umah yg sebelah landasan ketapi. Dh biase sgt tdo mati ni……

Anyway, weekend ni pun aku agak packed la jgk. Sabtu ni aku kuar g OU (a place that I’ve never been in the last 10 years). Ahad ni plak aku ader kenduri, and mlm tu will be the highlight of the weekend . Pak Wan Ngah korang ni (aku le tu) g tgk Wings kat Planet Hollywood. Bkn senang tu nk tgk original members main lagi. So amik la peluang yg amatlah rare ini utk tgk rockers tua jam. Isnin plak (kepada makhluk2 yg dh lupa, Isnin ni Wesak, so jgn lak gatal2 stat kete pagi tu nk g opis) aku nk bawak anak² buah aku g tgk Narnia. Seperti biase, uncle², auntie², abang², akak² diorg sumer ngalahkan Pak Lah. Sibuk nk mampus (Mampus pun x sibuk mcm korang laaaa…….). So aku la menjadi tukang escort utk anak buah aku tgk wayang. Xper la, bile lagi nk berbakti pada generasi seterusnya, tul x?

Tgk la, kalau aku rajin nnt, aku bgtau mcm mane konsert Wings tu nnt. Dh dkt kul 10 ni, keje pun x stat lagi. Asyik main blog jer. Mau kene penampar pegi balik ngan bos aku kalau dia tau ni keje aku time pagi²

Menghancurkan Lagu-Lagu

Bermulalah hari aku pada pagi Jumaat ni dengan kelopak mata yang amat berat untuk dibukakan. Mana tak nye, smlm aku berjaya melalak dengan huduh, buruk dan selambernyer. Ni aje la cara aku nak release tension, dan juga mengisi masa lapang aku yang agak lapang jugak lah.

Hmmmm……..korang bkn nak tau pun pasal benda ni. tapi aku saje nak list down balik lagu yang kitorang nyanyi semalam. bkn apa, untuk simpanan aku sendiri. kalau x suka dgn list ni, korang berenti la baca takat ni. tunggu la blog seterusnya. Lagipun ni bukan lengkap pun. Sape la yang jenis nak ingat semua lagu yang dia nyanyi dalam karaoke. 3 jam lebih plak tu.
  • Sandaran Hati (x sure) - Letto
  • Larger Than Life - BSB (what da f**k)
  • When u Say Nothing At All - En Ahmad Ronan
  • Azura - Jamal (rasenye masa nyanyi ni, xder yg isap dadah kot)
  • I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing - Aerosmith (bapak mertua aku :D)
  • Kian - Mawi (bkn aku yg nyanyi)
  • Hakikat Cinta Luka - Iklim (aku insan yang tak punya…)
  • Always - Bon Jovi
  • You Give A Love A Bad Name - Bon Jovi
  • Apa Khabar Orang Kampung - Sudirman (khabar baik kot)
  • C.I.N.T.A - XPDC (ader jgk member aku yang tak reti mengeja lagu ni)
  • Khayalan - BDB (tapi takde sape yang berkhayal pun masa tu)
  • Temple of The King - Rainbow
  • Love Is All Around - Wet Wet Wet (kene mandi ni…, nnt selsema)
  • Sentuhan Kecundang - Ekamatra
  • Pusara Di Lebuhraya - Ekamatra
  • Penantian - Ekamatra (mmg buat marathon Ekamatra masa tu)
  • Sekelip Mata Kau Berubah - Lestari
  • Kenangan Terindah - Samson (btul ke? bkn aku yg nyanyi)
  • Hanya Nyanyian Dalam Sepi - (Chris Vadham)
  • Masihkah Kau Ingat - Kopratasa
  • Cindai - Siti (muahahahaha)
Tang lagu Cindai ni, siap amik video lagi. So, sesiape makhluk2 yang berkenaan, kalau nk tengok video tu,mintak la kat aku k. Jangan mimpi la aku nk main upload2 ni. Uiks, korang ingat senang ke nak memperbodohkan diri sendiri. Dah la semua yang peg melalak tu cerdik pandai belaka (cuma screw ajer la yang kurang sikit). Bayangkan la, bile kite buat lagu siti stail Amuk. Sampai nk terpusing urat kentut aku time korus dia. Tapi jangan risau, kitorang sumer masih idup lagi. Takde sape yang mati terkejut dgr kitorang nyanyi lagu Siti.

Balik pun dah dekat pukul 4 pagi. Mane la aku x mamai time pagi Jumaat ni. Jadi, aku berenti dlu la ek. Kapla pun suda xbleh mau pikir betul2.

Adios
