Ingatkan dia nak jemput house warming rumah yang dia baru beli tapi bukan. Actually, someone organize this halal speed dating. Macam yang buat dekat the west and Korea and Japan where the man and woman introducing each other and changing info about themselves, then lepas lima minit macam tu ke, they change the positions to their side and meet with another person next to them pula. Then sambung lagi introduce each other until both of them berminat untuk proceed to the next level. Dah macam online dating game. Namapun speed dating.<br />
<br />
Actually, she and me are in the same league by which we're too busy with our own jobs sampai tak sempat bersosial untuk cari pasangan hidup masing-masing. Kalau berlepak-lepakpun dengan kawan sekerja sendiri atau kawan sekolej. Itupun kawan kolej ramai yang dah berkeluarga. Jadi makin lama, hidup makin sendirian. Pernah this one time we came up with a casual (read: crazy) plan nak suggestkan kepada AJK surau of our office to organize an event for the unmarried staff to meet each other and find the jodoh among them. Okay, we're like that desperate. *tskkk*<br />
<br />
And tiba-tiba memang betul-betul ada event macam tu nak buat nanti tapi dekat luarlah. She told me a friend of person yang in charge of the "I want to touch a dog" programme yang buat. Cannot recall his name at the moment tapi pada masa yang sama malas jugak nak Google nama dia. Haha.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, she can't make it sebab dah ada plan lain on the same day, so she asked me if I'm interested to grab the opportunity, then go Google for details. So baru sekejap tadi saya check tapi macam tak jumpa program tu. Susah hati ni. Hahaha.<br />
<br />
Okey, sangat sangat susah hati. *tskkk*<br />
<br />

And it was ridiculous and maniac and lousy plot-wise.<br/>
<br/>
In the nightmare, I commuted to my workplace by capsule yang macam dalam cerita Dragonball tu but the shape was a bit longer. So I took a seat and with a blip it looked like I was sitting in a bus. (From capsule to bus -- I told you my nightmare was very crap.)<br/>
<br/>
And suddenly, there was my boss sitting behind me. Out of nowhere. She called my name and asking me about "Impian Indah". I was pretty sure it was one of the company name (our customer) but I couldn't get it. Ingat-ingat lupa pasal the case of that company. So I mumbled.<br/>
<br/>
And she started to tell me off. I could mildly hear the voice and I started to cry. Tak pasti sebab apa. Either it was because I couldn't answer her question or was depressed sebab tak dengar sangat apa dia cakap. Sambil menangis sambil suruh dia ulang apa yang dia cakap. Hahaha.<br/>
<br/>
And the actual reason why I couldn't hear her clearly because I was wearing a helmet. Tiba-tiba je that moment saya pakai helmet hijau. Neon.<br/>
<br/>
Stupid stupid nightmare.<br/>
<br/>
And the last part of the nightmare was I had a bad feeling about my job and the future.<br/>
<br/>
I woke up.<br/>
<br/>
Based on the experience of my previous nightmares, I knew it would be going the opposite in reality. It was just that I didn't knew how big was the impact.<br/>
<br/>
And on the Monday morning, saya dapat email for my appraisal for last year performance. Good Lord! Alhamdulillah it was a good news. Last last year I came from zero. Now, I'm the champion! Thanks to all my Superiors. It was very very hard to impress them. Kerja gila.<br/>
<br/>
Not that I was really happy actually.Because last last year I struggled and worked very hard tapi boss rated KPI saya teruk. So I always used that reason for doing illegal things such as:<br/>
<br/>
1. Guna used papers untuk kepentingan sendiri macam photocopied IC.<br/>
2. Ambil air sejuk dari water dispenser untuk minum di rumah. (sebab malas nak masak air kat rumah sendiri.)<br/>
3. Curi-curi baca Whatsapp time kerja.<br/>
4. Cursed my superiors behind their back for being unfair.<br/>
5. Kerap pergi tandas sebab banyak sangat ambil air from the water dispenser. (Well, the theory is the more the input, the more the output.)<br/>
<br/>
And now that all my efforts and struggles have paid off, I can't do all those things anymore.<br/>
<br/>
Hurmmpphhh...<br/><p style='font-size: xx-small' align='right'>posted from <a href='https://market.android.com/details?id=pl.przemelek.android.blogger'>Bloggeroid</a></p></div>Syahmihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02122341979105188070noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7942561141681237970.post-63547312259328369452014-11-30T01:55:00.001+08:002014-11-30T01:55:57.760+08:00Cooking up with Syahmi<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>So, we already heard about GST commencing in next year, I started to think about budgetting and cost cutting and these include of my daily meals. I mean I can eat anything that is halal, cheap and mengenyangkan. Sedap atau tak sedap itu belakang kira.<br/>
<br/>
So I came up with this idea of preparing a nasi kosong and a plain soup macam moi or nasi air for the weekends. Based on my experience, having nasi dengan kuah banjir is mudah mengenyangkan.<br/>
<br/>
Well, masak nasi kosong was the easiest part even though saya selalu gagal dapatkan nasi yang betul-betul sedang-sedang lembutnya. The result was either too keras or too lembik. But it's okay this time since I was going to mix it with the plain soup.<br/>
<br/>
Preparing the soup was challengging. I made a tom yam soup using the instant paste that I bought from 99 Speedmarket, nearby my house. And high five to me because I managed to save money. Earlier, I wanted to buy the paste dekat Giant hypermarket but then I hesitated sebab tak sure which ones yang provide the cheaper price. Selalunya Giant's is a bit expensive for normal price. But then I opted for 99 Speedmarket. Hurrah! Memang murah betul. Dekat pula tu dengan rumah.<br/>
<br/>
Okay, so all the ingredients dah ada, then I prepared the dish. Dekat kitchen tu saya perasan the shallots and onions dah nak buruk, so I add to the mixture. And slices of frankfurters. And together with eggs. Well, I never saw people put frankfurters nor eggs in their tom yam until I made mine. Sebab saya takut telur tu pun memburuk kalau dibiarkan lama dalam peti ais.<br/>
<br/>
Jadi lepas siap masak saya campurkan nasi tu dengan kuah tom yam. Kemudian saya rasa.<br/>
<br/>
Good Lord! It was a stupid decision to put the eggs because it tasted like plastic.<br/>
<br/>
I ended up eating Maggie curry that night. Tssk. There goes my idea of budgetting.<br/>
<br/>
To the hell with GST.

<br />
It would be great to be here again. My life was a bit challenging recently as Mak was admitted to hospital but now she's in a good condition. I'm very grateful for everything I've had here in this world. Thanks Lord. I won't ask for more.<br />
<br />
Okay, maybe I just want to request one good soul mate just to accompany me through the life.<br />
<br />
And a property.<br />
<br />
Well, anyway, I was just finished watching 'The Fault in Our Stars.' One of the best movie I assure you. Go on and see it yourself. Based on a novel with the same title, this story was about Hazel who suffered from cancer and was forced to join this social meeting and there she met Gus, and then love happened between them. A little bit of romantic moments here and there (with their 'Okay...okay' thing.) Pergi ke Amsterdam dan berjumpa dengan penulis kegemaran diorang tapi hampa sebab the writer was really a douche-pants.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Bukan cerita gay. It's just that Hazel has a boyish hair cut</span></div>
<br />
Lepas tu saya perasan cerita ni sampai dua jam lebih which I thought was quite long for a teen movie. I was just waiting bila Hazel will die of cancer but then it was a twisted ending. I enjoyed the story much. The movie (and the novel itself I expect) is full with beautiful quotes. Haven't read the novel yet but I already downloaded it to my phone.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
And past few weeks ago saya tengok filem yang hampir sama 'Now is Good' lakonan Dakota Fanning sebagai Tessa dan Jeremy Irvine sebagai Adam. Tessa got cancer, being rebel and whatnot and she has her own wishlist to accomplish before she died. The emotional is strong there. Sedih sikit cerita ni. Haha. Kesat-kesat air mata bila tengok bapa Tessa menangis.<br />
<br />

<br />
Oh, I should mention here the place yang Adam bawa Tessa lepak-lepak tu is very blissful. I'm dying to go there! (sambil tulis dalam wishlist sebelum diri sendiri mati)<br />

<br />
<br />
Hazel and Gus and Tessa and Adam are the examples of great love story with a tragic ending. I wish mine is not even it's actually more likely (but not because of the cancer, of course.)<br />
<br />
Love truly hurts.<br />

It said here, "Make Art Every Day" and by that he didn't mean paint and literature but skill. Your inner natural skill which you should develop. The potential is already there. You just have to hone it. Make it a profit / benefit to your good self and others.<br />
<br />
Come on people, be creative! Unleashed your... urm, whatever in you that you have inside.<br />

So I start with this 'little thingy' which I shall share here when the right time has come. Please pray for my persistence because I get boring really quickly.<br />
<br />
Last but not lease, "Inspire and be inspired".<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">1. You look to everyone else for the answers only you can give yourself.</strong> – For much of our lives – especially at the beginning – we get told what do, how to think, what looks good, what “success” is, etc. You don’t have to buy into any of it anymore. Feel free to peel back the layers. Think for yourself. Listen to your Self. Break the mold. When you stop doing what everybody else wants you to do and start following your own intuition, you will find exactly what you are looking for.</span></div>
<div align="left" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 25.200000762939453px; word-wrap: break-word;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">2. You let others make you feel guilty for living your life.</strong> – As long as you’re not hurting anyone else, keep living your life YOUR way. Sometimes we get lost in trying to live for someone else, trying to meet their expectations, and doing things just to impress them. Take a moment and think about it. Are you doing things because you truly believe in them? Remember your own goals. Live, do and love so that you are happy, because when it comes down to it, relationships can end in an instant, but you will live with yourself for the rest of your life.</span></div>
<div align="left" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 25.200000762939453px; word-wrap: break-word;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">3. You allow toxic people to get the best of you.</strong> – You don’t ever have to feel guilty about removing toxic people from your life. It doesn’t matter whether someone is a relative, romantic interest, colleague, childhood friend or a new acquaintance. You don’t have to make room for people who cause you pain or make you feel small. It’s one thing if a person owns up to their behavior and makes an effort to change. But if a person disregards your feelings, ignores your boundaries and continues to treat you in a harmful way, they need to go. <i style="word-wrap: break-word;">(Read <span style="color: #34b6d1; word-wrap: break-word;"><span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0312152329/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0312152329&linkCode=as2&tag=marandang-20&linkId=JPQPDBOO7PMYET4E" style="color: #44516d; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">Toxic People</a></span></span>.)</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">4. You are part of the drama circle.</strong> – How would your life be different if you walked away from drama, gossip and verbal defamation? Let today be the day you speak only about the good you know of other people and encourage others to do the same. Those that refuse to support you CAN be ignored by you. It’s as simple as that. Incredible things happen when you distance yourself from negativity and those who create it. Don’t get caught up in drama. Just walk on by.</span></div>
<div align="left" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 25.200000762939453px; word-wrap: break-word;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">5. You assign negative intent to other people’s actions.</strong> – Another driver cut you off in traffic. Your friend never texted you back. Your colleague went to lunch without you. Everyone can find a reason to be offended on a daily basis. So what caused you to be offended? You assigned negative intent to these otherwise innocent actions. You took it as a personal insult – a slap in the face. Don’t do this to yourself. Don’t take things personally. Don’t assign negative intent to the unintentional actions of others. Let today be the day you look for the good in everyone you meet.</span></div>
<div align="left" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 25.200000762939453px; word-wrap: break-word;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">6. You are too worried that people will steal what you have.</strong> – Let this be your wake-up call, especially if you’re an artist, writer, entrepreneur or creative type: There is always more to be gained from sharing knowledge than from hoarding it. Don’t worry about people stealing your work; worry about the moment they stop. Be honest, helpful and undeniably good at what you do. No clever marketing scheme, social media buzzword, or competitor can be a substitute for that, ever. Whenever people want what you have, regardless of the circumstances, you’re doing it right.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">7. You’re trying to compete with everyone else.</strong> – If you compete with everyone else, you will become bitter. If you compete with a previous version of yourself, you will become better. It’s as simple as that.</span></div>
<div align="left" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 25.200000762939453px; word-wrap: break-word;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">8. You have been too much of a taker.</strong> – One way to deal with stress and loss is to immerse yourself in doing good for others. Volunteer. Get involved in life. It doesn’t even have to be a big, structured event. Say a kind word. Encourage someone nearby. Pay a visit to someone who is alone. Get away from your self-preoccupation for a while. When it comes down to it, there are two types of people in this world. There are givers and there are takers. Givers are happy. Takers are still unhappily wondering what’s in it for them.</span></div>
<div align="left" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 25.200000762939453px; word-wrap: break-word;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">9. You focus on popularity over effectiveness.</strong> – Seek respect, not attention. It lasts longer and it’s far more useful in the end. <span style="color: #34b6d1; word-wrap: break-word;"><span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><i style="word-wrap: break-word;"><a href="http://www.marcandangel.com/2013/10/27/8-things-extraordinary-people-give-to-others/" style="color: #44516d; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">Do things and build things that make a lasting difference.</a></i></span></span> And above all, never confuse popularity with effectiveness. Being popular means you’re liked for a while. Being effective means you’ve made a difference.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">10. You keep cutting corners and taking the easy way out.</strong> – Do what is right, not what is easy. And do the right thing even if no one else will ever know. Why? Because YOU will know.</span></div>
<div align="left" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 25.200000762939453px; word-wrap: break-word;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">11. You focus on every point in time other than now.</strong> – You can’t change yesterday, but you can ruin today by worrying about tomorrow. Be present. Tomorrow will reveal itself exactly as it should, just as yesterday already has.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">12. You are stuck on your mistakes.</strong> – It’s important that we forgive ourselves for making mistakes. We need to learn from our errors and move forward. Make a pact with yourself today to not be defined by your past. Sometimes the greatest thing to come out of all your hard work isn’t what you get for it, but what you learn from it. A happy, successful life, after all, is not a life absent of problems, but one that’s been able to rise above them. <i style="word-wrap: break-word;">(Angel and I discuss this in detail in the “Adversity” chapter of <span style="color: #34b6d1; word-wrap: break-word;"><span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><a href="http://www.marcandangel.com/book/" style="color: #44516d; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">1,000 Little Things Happy, Successful People Do Differently</a></span></span>.)</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">13. You have an “all or nothing” mentality.</strong> – There’s no such thing as perfect success, just as there’s no such thing as perfect failure. This is why labeling things in extremes – all or nothing – success or failure – is an exercise in futility. What does exist, however, is a continuous series of imperfect moments filled with infinite possibilities and opportunities. Appreciate the grey area between the extremes – the journey – the experiences. And above all, never let success get to your head or failure get to your heart.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">14. You expect life to always be happy.</strong> – The world can be a difficult place. You may experience suffering, heartbreak and loss. These circumstances can take a toll on your happiness, but do not lose hope. Think about the Yin and Yang in Chinese philosophy, which states that opposite forces are often interconnected. <span style="color: #34b6d1; word-wrap: break-word;"><span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><i style="word-wrap: break-word;"><a href="http://www.marcandangel.com/2014/01/08/8-things-to-remember-when-everything-goes-wrong/" style="color: #44516d; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">In suffering, you can find great strength</a></i></span></span>, in heartbreak you can find resilience, and in loss you can find a renewed appreciation for life. Life is always Yin and Yang. Opposites are interdependent and interconnected. You can’t completely shield yourself from sadness without also shielding yourself from happiness.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">15. You keep thinking about worst-case scenarios.</strong> - Sometimes your mind unnecessarily wrestles with events that aren’t even remotely likely. Your sore throat is life threatening. Your lost driver’s license fell into the hands of a miscreant looking to steal your identity. Negativity like this only breeds more negativity. It’s a happiness riptide. It will carry you away from shore, and if you don’t swim away it will pull you under. The bottom line is that you can see the world through a lens of doubt and despair or hope and excitement. It’s your choice. Either way, you will someday arrive at the same destination. The only question is: Do you want to arrive with a frown or a smile?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">16. You’re letting loss devour you.</strong> – Sometimes you have to work at happiness. Some hurdles in life are too difficult to clear simply by adopting a positive mindset. Do you need to forgive someone? Do you need to let go of a failed relationship? Do you need to come to terms with the death of a loved one? Life is full of loss. But, in a sense, true happiness would not be possible without it. It helps us appreciate the good times. It helps us grow. If you’re struggling to see the light, you’re not alone. Find someone who understands and talk to them. Reach out for support. Don’t let loss devour you. <i style="word-wrap: break-word;">(Read <span style="color: #34b6d1; word-wrap: break-word;"><span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1401940838/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1401940838&linkCode=as2&tag=marandang-20&linkId=7SL42OVZ6B5WCURN" style="color: #44516d; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">Second Firsts</a></span></span>.)</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">17. You avoid facing the truth.</strong> – The truth does not cease to exist when it is ignored. You cannot find peace by avoiding things. You have to feel it to heal it. Bring your fears and weaknesses front and center and shine a blazing spotlight on them. Because the only way out is through. The pain of facing the truth is SO worth it in the long run, I swear.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; word-wrap: break-word;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">18. You put off making decisions.</strong> – Bad decisions are almost always better than no decisions at all. Indecisiveness just delays, while bad decisions teach us to yield better ones. In the end, we most often regret the chances we didn’t take, the relationships we were afraid to have, and the decisions we waited too long to make.</span></div>

<br/>
1. Solat Tahajud di waktu ¾ malam sekurang-kurangnya 2 rakaat & solat sunat Witir sekurang-kurangnya 1 rakaat sebelum masuk waktu Subuh- Tahajjud merupakan jalan orang-orang yang soleh, amalan para Nabi dan Wali-wali Allah yang terdahulu. Jangan ditinggalkan.<br/>
<br/>
2. Selepas Subuh, zikir 300pagi {100x [tasbih,tahmid dan takbir], 100x selawat & 100x istighfar}. Zikir sangat penting kerana semasa kedatangan DAJJAL hanya zikir sebagai sumber makanan dan minuman. Hanya orang yang benar-benar jaga zikir shj mempunyai sumber makanan dan minuman pada waktu itu. Selainnya akan mengikut DAJJAL untuk mendapat makanan dan minuman.<br/>
<br/>
3. Kemudian bacalah surah Yasin- Allah janji segala hajatnya pada hari itu akan dipenuhi.<br/>
<br/>
4. Kemudian selepas 26 min naik matahari, solat sunat Isyraq 4 rakaat- Allah janji akan menolong kamu menyempurnakan segala urusanmu pada hari itu.<br/>
<br/>
5. Kemudian solat sunat Dhuha, boleh dilakukan bermula 20 minit selapas Isyraq (di antara jam 8-12 tghari). Nabi SAW bersabda: “Sesiapa mengerjakan solat Dhuha 2 rakaat, dia tidak tergolong di dalam golongan orang-orang yg lalai dan lupa.” Solat Dhuha juga memudahkan urusan dan memberkati rezeki.<br/>
<br/>
6. Selepas solat Zohor, bacalah surah Ar-Rahman- Nabi SAW bersabda: “Segala sesuatu itu mempunyai mempelai, dan mempelai bagi Al-Quran adalah surah Ar-Rahman.” Surah Ar-Rahman menanam sifat syukur di dalam hati atas nikmat-nikmat Allah dan dengan amalan membaca Surah Ar-Rahman juga sangat baik untuk meningkatkan kecerdasan otak.<br/>
<br/>
7. Selepas solat fardhu Asar, zikir 300 petang, {100x [tasbih,tahmid dan takbir], 100x selawat & 100x istighfar}<br/>
<br/>
8. Kemudian baca Surah An-Naba’ – Nabi SAW bersabda: “ Jika kamu tahu fadhilat dan besarnya pahala membaca surah An-Naba’, maka kamu akan berhenti daripada tugas-tugas kamu, lalu mempelajari surah tersebut dan mendekatkan diri kepada Allah dengan membacanya. Sesungguhnya Allah akan mengampunkan dosa-dosa mereka yang mengamalkan membacanya selain dosa syirik.”<br/>
<br/>
9. Selepas solat Maghrib, solat sunat Auwabin-Allah janji akan memberi keampunan terhadap dosa-dosa melainkan dosa syirik kepadaNya.<br/>
<br/>
10. Kemudian bacalah surah Al-Waqiah-Allah janji sesiapa yang istiqamah mengamalkannya pada setiap malam, kebuluran & kemiskinan tidak akan menemuinya.<br/>
<br/>
11. Selepas Isya’ bacalah surah Al-Mulk-Allah janji akan memelihara daripada azab kubur. Nabi SAW tidak akan tidur selagi tidak membaca surah Al-Mulk dan surah As-Sajdah.<br/>
<br/>
12. Setiap malam bacalah Ayatul Kursi dan “Amanar-Rasul” hingga habis. Sangat-sangat penting untuk melindung diri daripada pengaruh syaitan dan kejahatan<br/>
<br/>
13. Sebelum tidur, solat sunat Taubat dan tidur beradab seperti mana Nabi SAW tunjuk ajar.<br/>
<br/>
14. Setiap malam apabila hendak tidur, Muhasabah diri, pohonlah keampunanmu kpd Allah diatas dosa-dosa dan bagi setiap amalan yang baik, nyatakan kesyukuranmu kepada Allah.<br/>
<br/>
15. Sebelum tidur fikirkan dan renunglah(muqarabah) juga mengenai mati dan peristiwa-peristiwa selepas maut. Muqaraba adalah perlu untuk membentuk sifat Taqwa.<br/>
<br/>
16. Setiap hari bacalah al-Quran (Tilawatul Quran) walaupun hanya satu ‘ain’. Latihan tilawah sangat memberi kesan kepada hati. Hati yang tidak ada al-Quran seumpama hati yang mati. Pembacaan Al-Quran janganlah ditinggalkan. Hak Al-Quran adalh perlu dikatamkan dua kali setiap tahun.<br/>
<br/>
17. Setiap pagi Jumaat bacalah surah Al-Kahfi, kalau tak mampu habiskan seluruh surah, bacalah seberapa banyak yang boleh- Allah janji ‘cahaya’ di hari kiamat dan diampunkannya diantara dua Jumaat. Nabi SAW bersabda: ‘Sesiapa membaca surah Al-Kahfi pada hari Jumaat, maka bersinarlah cahaya drpd bawah kakinya hingga ke langit.’<br/>
<br/>
18. Hendaklah hati & lidah sentiasa sibuk dengan berzikir didalam apa jua kegiatan sama ada berjalan, duduk atau bekerja. Berzikirlah ‘Lailahailallah’ sebagai amalan tetap dan berkekalan.<br/>
<br/>
19. Puasa sunat Isnin & Khamis, juga puasa sunat pada hari-hari yang digalakkan dalam Islam. Untuk puasa-puasa sunat, mintalah keizinan daripada suami-suami kamu. <br/>
<br/>
20. Cubalah sedaya-upaya berada dalam keadaan berwuduk<br/><p style='font-size: xx-small' align='right'>posted from <a href='https://market.android.com/details?id=pl.przemelek.android.blogger'>Bloggeroid</a></p></div>Syahmihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02122341979105188070noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7942561141681237970.post-47954624329496197992014-03-16T15:48:00.001+08:002014-03-16T15:48:38.907+08:00Lay back<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>A novel and Norah Jones' to occupy the end of my weekends.

I suppose for me God confirmed it to me over and over and over again that xxxxxx (his wife) was the one for me. I don't know if He makes it so clear in every relationship, but I would certainly think that with marriage, it would be something worth waiting patiently for that one woman who you just know has to be from God... or at least someone you love enough that you would be willing to go thru hell with her, as there will always be those tough periods in any relationship where things are hard, where you don't FEEL in love. I've learned love isn't always about feelings... but it's often a commitment to do what's best for the other person more than what's best for yourself, even when you don't feel like it. If you don't feel like you can go thru hell with a woman without ever giving up on her, then either that woman is not the right woman for you, or you're just not ready for a relationship. And of course, this woman should feel the same way about you, and be able to make that same commitment. I hope you find that woman, Syahmi!!! So what do you look for in a woman?<br/>

Day 1 (Part 2)Hi. I'm back again. Tak habis lagi cerita pasal trip to Melbourne in which happened past seven months ago. Hebat sangat dah kalau boleh recall every bits of moment there. Hihi.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Okay, back to the picture. Akak Besa' and her husband Abang Yin sambut kitorang kat exit departure hall and not to forget their lovely little daughter Sara. She was four last year. She was sad when we met her sebab her cousin already went back to Malaysia. She was a bit resistant to us earlier but lama-lama tu dah okey dah. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Keluar airport je mulut terus berasap-asap bila bercakap. It's freaking cool after the rain. We shot to my sister's residence by cab tapi dah lupa nama the street which my sister lives. Hehe. I could tell that the scenery along the way tu biasa-biasa je mungkin sebab lalu expressway. Domestic building architecture pun quite similar with the ones in those international home design or property mags. It's just that the weather that made us felt something different. And that's made me missed Malaysia too. The atmosphere there was a bit... erm... how should I put this. Gloomy and slow? Maybe because it was going to be winter.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And because I love to see sun very much. I love the feel of hotness. Even my foreign teacher agreed with me. She's fond of Malaysia because of the weather. The dense of sun ray. And hence she made her decision to move out from Lebanon and works in Malaysia. Ceh, baru berapa minit kat Melbourne dah rindu Malaysia. Aparra.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Akak Besa's home is a townhouse of four floors. Opposite hers is an Australian lady's. On top of hers is Middle Easterner's. The Australian lady was not quite friendly which I believe not all Australians are like that. Mungkin sebab faktor usia. Hehe. Dia andartu. So Abang Yin said they only speak with the Middle Easterners je. Well, only outsiders know outsiders.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The first thing we did when we arrived was having our Australian lunch. Abang Yin cooked a special curry elephant fish with rice. Well, okay, it was Australian-ish as he said we can't get the fish in Malaysia. The fish texture was like ikan pari. Tulang dia lembut. Other than that, he prepared spicy pasta for us and we ate them for the whole four days. Ulang-ulang panaskan semua makanan tu hehe. Hari kelima baru makan makanan baru. And he said he had to be careful when cooking because of the odours released. Austalians tak suka bau yang kuat. Jadi terpaksa tutup tingkap kalau nak masak asam laksa. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At 12.00 PM, all the guys prepared for Friday prayer. Here, they arranged a two sessions of Friday prayer - one is at 12.30 PM and another one is at 1.30 PM sebab Australia bukan negara Islam. So they came out with this for flexibility. Usually the lunch hour for working people starts at 1.00 PM, hence, the additional Friday prayer session. The sermon is in Arabic language for the first session whilst English for the second one.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After finishing the prayer, we went back to home and helped the family did the laundry. Masa nak jemur tu jari rasa sejuk sangat sebab pegang baju basah. I thought it was about 13 degree? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Then we took times looking around the residence. Rumah dekat sana cantik-cantik tapi selalunya satu tingkat. And the best part was I can see Melbourne city just outside from my sister's house as the house is located at hillside. Along the time, every morning I stood there silently and enjoyed this picturesque scenery. Masyaallah cantik sangat. And in the morning also I could see many air hot balloons from the city. Tak faham kenapa pukul 7.00 pagi dah ada orang lepaskan belon panas tu. Hehe.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In the afternoon, we went to Myer and David Jones at Swanstons St. for shopping. Reached there by train and we used the Myki card. Lebih kurang macam Touch N' Go. The train macam KTM punya but the door is manual, you have to pull to open. </div>

Walaupun pergi bulan enam tapi tetap ada sale, maybe sebab it was the Queen Day. Kat sini saya tak beli barang cuma Abang Yin je mencari iPhone baru sebab abang dia pesan. Dekat sini pukul 5.00 petang dah macam pukul 8.00 malam kat Malaysia bila musim sejuk. Sebab tu kot rasa tak seronok. Macam tak puas sangat nak berjalan waktu siang sebab rasa sekejap sangat. Pukul 9.00 malam banyak kedai dah tutup. So it was not happening let alone it was weekday. Lepas kerja semua nak balik rumah.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Oh, now I remember. There was a fascinating fire display at Southbank, Yarra River near Crown Casino. It was a breath taking performance by...err... the big pillars. Fire came out from the pillars in rhythm. I wonder if there's a misfortune bird that flied on the pillar and kappishhh... became a grilled bird?</div>

And this was my second visit after I went there last night, accidentally, while looking for new washing machine.<br/>
<br/>
My now ex-housemate took back his washing machine. Sob...sob...<br/>
<br/>
Anyway, my friend and I share the same niche which is we're crazy for books, and by that I mean cheap books like this fair - but we admit, it's hard to manage to read them all in a year or two. In practical, we're like building sebuah kutub khanah like what my eldest sister said (or in worse case scenario *mine* in plastic bags under the bed.) and God knows what to expect for people like me. <br/>
<br/>
The passion is more on the spirit of buying the books themselves rather than to read them. And knowing it, I just set my date for another book fair which will happen next two weeks. Cli-max!<br/>
<br/>
Anyway, saya berjaya mengawal nafsu saya malam ni (don't ever think out of the box.) Saya beli tiga buah buku saja and all of them are non-fictional. Alhamdulillah , I'm blessed. Haha.<br/>
<br/>
My friend bought more than 10. Crap!<br/>
<br/>
God will bless her.<br/>
<br/>
After making her payment, I volunteered myself to carry her things. Gentleman as I proclaimed myself, very deep down in my heart. <br/>
<br/>
She said, "you don't mind?"<br/>
<br/>
So I said "Yes -"<br/>
<br/>
"Yes, you mind." She joked and I laughed and made a poker face because I was thinking back so hard about my answer. <br/>
<br/>
No.<br/>
<br/>
Practically, it's impossible for you to make a poker face while laughing. You will end up be weird like Hitler's moustache.<br/>
<br/>
The first issue I want to raise here is her full question should be: "You don't mind, do you?"<br/>
<br/>
Which will easily help me to answer the question:<br/>
"Yes, I do mind."<br/>
"Yes, I don't mind."<br/>
"No, I do mind."<br/>
"No, I don't mind."<br/>
<br/>
Actually no.<br/>
<br/>
Clueless people like me have this disability of answering such type of question. I may come up with four different answers for this. I mean you won't know whether the yes or no is the answer for which questions - the do or the don't. So that has made me ponder a lot while at the same time having this weird nonsense face.<br/>
<br/>
I hate such question.<br/><p style='font-size: xx-small' align='right'>posted from <a href='https://market.android.com/details?id=pl.przemelek.android.blogger'>Bloggeroid</a></p></div>Syahmihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02122341979105188070noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7942561141681237970.post-91477888436671622232013-11-09T10:46:00.001+08:002013-11-09T10:46:48.247+08:00The Funny Run Marathon<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>Which is supposed to be a MyCAT Fun Run Marathon... For the fun *size* people like me. Hahaha...<br/>
<br/>
I only managed to join it halfway as I merely reached the point at 8.35 am. I thought it was very near to Bukit Jalil Stadium but no. I've walked for more than 3 km, following the 'trail' of the 10 km runners. While I was searching for the starting point blindly, someone called me "woi!"<br/>
<br/>
and it was my colleague. "Jom lah lari... Lari je! Mana baju awak?!"<br/>
<br/>
"Kak, how long have you been running?"<br/>
<br/>
"About seven minutes. Cepatlah bukak baju awak... Tukar."<br/>
<br/>
Gila nak tukar baju kat tengah-tengah track. Oh, forgot to tell you. I wasn't wearing the official t-shirt for the marathon sebab kalau lambat sampai tak malu sangat kan. Hahaha...<br/>
<br/>
"Dah berapa jauh berlari ni?"<br/>
<br/>
"One km... and half"<br/>
<br/>
What??? Seven minutes for one km and half. And that's halfway already. The Fun Run Marathon track is only three km. Sekejap betul.<br/>
<br/>
Anyway, I followed my colleague and we ran and ran for about four minutes, then I stopped. Sebab penat haha...<br/>
<br/>
She ran before me, leaving me hopelessly. I could see her from far before she lost from my sight. God, I couldn't believe that she dare to leave me.<br/>
<br/>
I hurted my toes because I wore smaller-sized trainers. If I kept wearing this shoes for running, I'm pretty sure the old Chinese ladies during the great dynasty would be jealous of me.<br/>
<br/>
Anyhow, I managed to find the ending point but tak berani nak masuk the line sebab I didn't wear the official shirt for the marathon. So I used the alternative track, just good enough to see the ending point.<br/>
<br/>
And I saw that all the participants yang finished the marathon got a big pack of Tiger Biskut Susu.<br/>
<br/>
Biskut Susu sedap tapi nak minta malu walaupun sebagai peserta, ada hak nak minta Biskut Susu tu. Tapi sebab malu nak buat camne kan. Haha. <br/>
<br/>
Okay, that's all for now. I know my ending is a total crap. Hahaha. I'm going to Astro Gempak now. <br/>
<br/>

Yamseng!<br />
<br />
Yamseng kepala otak kau. Inikan bulan Ramadhan. Haa... jemput. Jemput. Makan kurma tu lebih sikit.<br />
<br />
*intro yang sangat bedebah*<br />
<br />
Well, anyway, back to the story. We reached Tullamarine Airport around 7:50AM. So it took about almost eight hours to get from Malaysia to Australia. Lepas keluar dari perut kapal terbang tu we all walked along the tunnel until we were greeted by the local custom officer at the entrance.<br />
<br />
Actually not.<br />
<br />
She didn't greeted us like "Hi, welcome to Tullamarine Airport. Enjoy your day here." She was actually standing there to examine the passengers and see if there were any suspects.<br />
<br />
But it was my damn fault all the way long *I hate me for being me, you know*<br />
<br />
Because I looked at her like LOOKED at her macam minta attention. It's like "Hey lady, please looked at me back. I'm an attention seeker and I'm from Malaysia. Read my lips: AT-TEN-TION SEE-KAH. You hear me?!"<br />
<br />
Ambik ko, sekali dia perasan saya pandang dia, terus dia panggil and kena soal siasat. Putus urat sekejap. Hahaha.<br />
<br />
She asked us so many things like what we're doing there, how long we would be there, tinggal kat mana nanti, bilik ada berapa, muat ke tak. I was so lucky that I knew such questions will be asked because Australians are very particulars about this and Akak Besa' has told me earlier. We were not supposed to stay with my sister because it is HER house. Kalau nak jumpa dia boleh jumpa kat tempat lain like dekat park or club or anywhere as long as not at home. And let say kalau ada dua bilik je dalam satu rumah, the family members are not allowed to be more than three. Lebih kurang macam tu. Sebab budaya kat sana mementingkan privasi. Even antara famili sendiri pun. Sebab tu saya mentioned awal tadi yang we're not supposed to stay at my sister house. So saya tipu here and there.<br />
<br />
Saya perasan all the other passengers elok je went away to the checking counter. Famili kitorang je yang stranded kena tahan dengan that local custom officer. Susah betul kalau ada dalam satu group tu ada orang nerd bermasalah macam aku ni. Hahaha.<br />
<br />
So we proceeded to the checking counter but in the middle we stop untuk ambil gambar sebab ada spot yang yang menarik. Again, kena tahan lagi dengan officer yang sama sebab we were supposed not to take picture in the free tax area. Perempuan ni dah macam followed saya all the way long from behind and perhatikan saya. She asked me to delete all the pictures taken there before she went away. Awkward betul masa tu. Oh my, malu tahap siput sedut dah ni.<br />
<br />
At the luggage checking counter, I would say it was quite smooth. Walaupun Mak ada bawa kuah kacang kering, saya bawa sos dan kicap, Kak Yong bawa mi segera and tat nenas, semuanya passed. Alhamdulillah. My brother said it all depends on the person in charge. Kalau okay, then okay lah. It just that dairy and egg products yang memang tak boleh bawa masuk (See, I've to lie about the ingredients of the tat nenas).<br />
<br />
Dan akhirnya... Jeng! Jeng! Jeng! Kami lepas! Actually this was the part I was most afraid of. Sebab takut kena tangkap sebab bawa kuih raya yang mengandungi telur. Kalau masuk jail sebab bawa dadah kira up la sikit kan, nampak la macho sikit. Tapi sebab dah level noob, maka takat bawa telur pun dah boleh jadi reason masuk lokap. Hahaha.<br />
<br />
Okay, see you next time for Day 1 part two!Syahmihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02122341979105188070noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7942561141681237970.post-39384040178554355192013-07-06T23:05:00.000+08:002013-07-06T23:05:00.222+08:00Good Day, Mate! - Departure DayOkey, marilah kita melupakan perkara yang lama sekejap... huhu.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
On the departure day, I was very busy. Tengahari sempat lagi jumpa colleague kat office for something and then rushed to apply for Mak's travelling insurance in the afternoon. You can apply it from <a href="http://www.axa.com.my/291/en/personal-insurance/travel/introduction">AXA</a> via online. I didn't survey for other companies but I think this one was cheap enough which costed less than MYR20.00 per individual with basic cover and I'm not sure how much it costs for a group. I just bought for Mak since I already covered by takaful and my brother in law already applied for his family.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Oh, not to forget, at 4.00PM I still hadn't packed all my clothing yet. Semua baju saya longgokkan dalam plastik Mydin sekali dengan kicap, sos, dan bihun yang Akak Besa' pesan. Mak yang bawa bagasi kosong saya dari kampung. Jadi semua orang akan berkumpul dekat rumah Kak Yong nanti which takes only seven minutes from my house.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Tapi pukul 5.00PM lebih baru saya sampai sebab singgah kat Tesco dulu untuk beli penimbang. Masa tu mak memang membebel gila sebab saya tak sampai-sampai lagi. Dah la masa tu hujan.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So here we went, pukul 6.00PM tepat kami bertolak.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And the most unacceptable thing I did was I think that our departure is at 11.45PM.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Wrong, Syahmi! Wrong!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sekali lagi kena bebel sebab salah timing. Hahaha... It was at 10.30PM actually.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lucky we reached LCCT at 7.00PM and we self-checked in there. Easy meezy.<br />
<br />
I was a bit nervous when we reached at the custom examination counter since it was first time. Kelam kabut juga. And then suddenly, whe we passed the boarding room, I heard an announcement "Penerbangan ke Melbourne akan bergerak sebentar lagi."<br />
<br />
Hell, I was so panic at that time, kesian sebab Mak pun terpaksa lari-lari juga. And I push the door entrance and did some 'just like a boss' style. Alah, you know, yang tolak dua-dua daun pintu guna dua belah tangan serentak tu.<br />
<br />
Dan kemudian kami sekeluarga terus berlari-lari anak ke tengah-tengah lapangan terbang untuk mengejar kapal terbang ke Melbourne itu dan saya mendapati ada seorang staf di tengah-tengah sana lalu saya bertanyakan kat dia, "Has the Melbourne flight departed yet?"<br />
<br />
"Hah?? Cepat, dik. Cepat! Kapal terbang dah bergerak tu!" Muka pakcik tu sama gelabah macam saya. Cis!Cis!<br />
<br />
And suddenly came this guy which I think the head officer in-charge and he said, "Ni siapa bagi diorang lepas ni?!"<br />
<br />
Oh, man! Bagi lepas?! Like... 'bagi lepas?!'<br />
<br />
What, are we kangaroos?<br />
<br />
Dan sebenarnya flight yang tengah berlepas tu pergi ke Gold Coast instead of Melbourne. -_-"<br />
<br />
So the officer bawa kitorang balik ke boarding room. Perghh...malu gilo time tu. Dah la kat boarding tu penuh dengan orang yang start dari awal, started from we rushed from the custom counter, berlari-lari anak dan tolak daun pintu tu *like a boss* and then kena halau balik ke boarding room and doing the walk-of-shame along the aisle, they had seen all of these. Oh my, malu macam berjalan naked di khalayak ramai....sob sob.<br />
<br />
Yes, I noticed a group of Caucasians laughing at us. So kesimpulannya, lawak ini memang sangat mudah difahami dan diterima sampai ke tahap antarabangsa. Lawak oleh keluarga Abdul Rani. Cis! Cis!<br />
<br />
Sigh, I still have this trauma... and that Caucasians' laugh... Ahh!<br />
<br />
Well, anyway, to my defence, ni semua salah announcement. I mean, how long is 'sebentar lagi' would be?<br />
<br />
Again, saya dibebelkan lagi. Dah la duduk dekat dengan abang and kakak kastam. I'm pretty sure they overheard this. Even they had been warned by that head officer sebab tak guard dekat entrance ke lapangan terbang tu. Sekapal la kita.<br />
<br />
Nasib baik kakak tu sporting siap cakap "Takpe, dik. Orang first time memang camtu."<br />
<br />
Haha. -_-"<br />
<br />
After less than half an hour baru the entrance opened.<br />
<br />
Bila masuk dalam kapal terbang, wah, macam dalam keretapi je. Haha. Adoi, what la to expect when you opted for an economy package. But the stewardesses, I admit, were very beautiful. <br />
<br />
In the airplane, nothing much that I did but I saw a very spectacular view of lightning from the higher level, above the clouds. Masa tu hujan and banyak kilat but I felt safe somehow. Subhanallah, vair vair interesting.<br />
<br />
I was sleeping most of the time. Kak Yong, on the other hand, tak tidur langsung sebab takut. She said lepas ni tak nak pergi oversea dah kalau duduk dalam kapal terbang lebih dari lapan jam. Okey, Kak Yong, lepas ni kita bercuti kat Segambut je. Set?<br />
<br />
Anyway, since we didn't pre-order the meals, we'd to buy them with the price of harga barang di langit. A Maggi cup costs MYR6.00 whilst a regular size bottle of mineral water costs MYR4.00. Now you see how rich our beloved Fernandes can be?<br />
<br />
Oh ya, apart from all these, I learned a new thing about praying. We can do khuf when travelling. It is a simplified way of ablution. I'll make a special entry for this and macam mana nak sembahyang kat negara orang bukan islam later.<br />
<br />
Till then, ciao. </div>

She was F's best friend during our technical program years ago and now still is. As I still cannot forget about F, I asked S and confirmed whether F's taken or not but she also couldn't assure.<br />
<br />
Until today.<br />
<br />
Somehow S had a conversation with F and asked her on behalf of me recently.<br />
<br />
Yeay! F gave the answer at last. And yes, it's not a good one - at least for me. She admitted that she's taken by a guy. I should have a gut for it. So part of my heart feels a bit relief right now because I knew the truth but the other part feels the pain... of becoming the third wheel.<br />
<br />
The second truth revealed - S told me that she also had (or still has??) a feeling for me but I was too late. I mean we... We met when she's already with that guy.<br />
<br />
F cakap dia tak nak beri harapan kepada saya. Semuanya atas izin dan jodoh dari Tuhan. So, I don't know what to say any more. It's just hard to find someone like her, which I've waited for so long ago, for the past six years.<br />
<br />
I knew up there, God is still planning the best for me.<br />
<br />

Baru nak sambung cerita balik sebab sebelum ni takde inspirasi nak menulis. Ceewah.<br />
<br />
So, actually how it was planned? Tetiba je pergi Melbourne. Well, it was Mak's intention of course since she likes travelling. But since then, Mak can't go anyway far from the dialysis centre sebab Mak ada masalah buah pinggang. So everywhere she wants to go is limited.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Early 2012</b><br />
Akak Besa' (please read this as Besar with an Utara slang and I don't know why she got that name) went back to Malaysia, Mak tanya macam-macam about Australia. Since she looked so eager and keen so my big sister got this idea about bringing Mak to visit her later. Pity her since Ayah is not the type yang suka pergi travelling, so Akak asked me whether I could bring her to Melbourne together.<br />
<br />
At first, Akak Besa' asked me to go with Abang Besa' (it sounds like a rap, haha), my elder brother together with his family sebab they all also planned to go to visit Perth, where my nephew studies. They planned to go next year and waited for winter but I insisted to go during spring which is around October together with Mak alone. With Mak's condition, I'm afraid if anything bad happen. And I don't like winter. Spring would be better since Mak likes flowers so much and I like to eat lots and lots of fruits.<br />
<br />
But I think my sister wouldn't trust me that I've to wait for my brother decision. Nasiblah kau, Syahmi. Siapa suruh berperangai macam budak-budak. Dah orang tak percaya dengan keputusan kau. Anyway, I'm get used to it, so let's just wait.<br />
<br />
<b>End of 2012</b><br />
I received a call from Akak Besa' which suddenly she changed her mind and asked me not to wait for Abang Besa' because rasa macam lambat sangat pula.<br />
<br />
Sudah kukatakan, Labu...<br />
<br />
Anyway, October has passed, so I just checked for next year punya schedule and matched with the Australia's calendar and with the AirAsia ticket promotion. Sikit betul Australia punya public holidays. So the nearest public holiday is the Queen's Birthday in June. Which is winter time. Blergghhh.<br />
<br />
So I booked two tickets.<br />
<br />
Later, Akak Besa' called me again suggesting that Kak Yong, our eldest sister should join us. She and the other siblings would pay for her expenses - alone. Sebab Kak Yong dah banyak berjasa dengan adik-adik dia sepuluh orang ni so this is the time we treat her. I didn't mind about this but, seriously, alone?<br />
<br />
I knew it never can happen! She got her kids. Of course the kids were eager to go too.<br />
<br />
Again, they didn't hear me. <br />
<br />
Why? Why? Why they hardly listened to me?<br />
<br />
Okey, kenapa tiba-tiba penulisan ni berbaur amarah dan lepas geram? Haha<br />
<br />
Anyway, back to the story, yes, the kids and the husband were going too - with their own pocket money. I was happy actually because the more the members the merrier this trip would be.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>May 2013</b><br />
I bought this Samsung smart camera just for this vacation. Yes, you can edit the picture right through this camera and it has WiFi and a small front LCD screen for cam-whoring.<br />
<br />
Tadaa!<br />

I got a student discount for this item. Which I never think I would get a student price because I forgot to shave my goatee and moustache. Oh, okay! Maybe because I was wearing my hipster t-shirt and a pair of skinny jeans and that SAG sling bag.<br />
<br />
Oh dear, thinking back how cool I was at that time *usap-usap dagu*<br />
<br />
My old student life...<br />
<br />
Anyway, it will be an anti climax entry since I want to stop writing now. I feel tired and sleepy (and want to dream about my ideal cool student life back). So we'll continue the story later.<br />

Tali pada sling bag tu putus beberapa bulan lepas tapi sayang nak buang beg tu sebab masih boleh pakai lagi sebenarnya. Tapi nak sambung dan jahit sendiri saya memang tak pandai. Nak mengharapkan isteri yang tolong jahitkan, isteri pun takde lagi sob...sob... Dah berhabuk sangat beg ni saya letak macam tu saja.<br />

With a budget of 70 cents, I managed to get a packet of pins to be used to attach the strap. I know this is kind of sloppy but harap-harap takkan ada orang yang pandang lama-lama sambil fikir "Ni hipster mana pulak sesat masuk bank ni?!"<br />

So I stalked her Facebook again but of course in a decent way. I realized this one guy in her friend's list. He has this kind of attractive nose. I'm pretty sure he's the guy yang F suka. The boyfriend.<br />
<br />
Because F pernah told me that she admires Zizan Raja Lawak fondly.<br />
<br />
Because of his nose.<br />
<br />
His BIG nose.<br />
<br />
Or just nose nose.<br />
<br />
Well, you know. girls can be so pelik sometimes.<br />
<br />
So, anyway, I made a comparison of the guy's nose with mine while waiting for the washing machine to stop *takde kerja, giler*<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipGMh9RjA0RTj6wmXQGUKKrCmwL0CGW5Lr9kSDNaQmG-dFcD-t0vSQGdcuw8_ZC76UauZqTaTkiieAmx3ib7ObJSnmB-uBsYyHqNzx3cQv3-m6K3KRnymhdWYSH8xSuRHsieNxwHR-eG9_/s1600/Nose+nose.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="188" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipGMh9RjA0RTj6wmXQGUKKrCmwL0CGW5Lr9kSDNaQmG-dFcD-t0vSQGdcuw8_ZC76UauZqTaTkiieAmx3ib7ObJSnmB-uBsYyHqNzx3cQv3-m6K3KRnymhdWYSH8xSuRHsieNxwHR-eG9_/s320/Nose+nose.png" width="320" /></a></div>
As shown above, my nose is pointed upwards, similar with that of Jensen Ackles' *tak nak kalah*<br />
<br />
While his is pointed downwards. like typical Bollywood Stars'.<br />
<br />
And as for Zizan's, he has this big nose.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCUJJTpmTJQa8eg7oigz-OvomRJ-J2Fu9waZJ1KCAKWvDqWkfkcYRE9wTezE1zzoQGDDEG_3gjXqfyIgEhROFhlGCk13yQP8DxDYwTAUZcT0oF_IWQAGq4sj7B5XSTHZvMW_Wqp1VcMIx6/s1600/Zizan.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCUJJTpmTJQa8eg7oigz-OvomRJ-J2Fu9waZJ1KCAKWvDqWkfkcYRE9wTezE1zzoQGDDEG_3gjXqfyIgEhROFhlGCk13yQP8DxDYwTAUZcT0oF_IWQAGq4sj7B5XSTHZvMW_Wqp1VcMIx6/s320/Zizan.jpg" width="213" /></a></div>
<br />
Yes, that BIG nose. But still... asset is an asset. As a result, he used to date two Pan Asian girls.<br />
<br />
Me? I date my Crocs.<br />
<br />
Well, back to the topics, here's the verdict: Zizan's nose is pointed downwards. Slightly.<br />
<br />
Hence, the guy with the pretty nose wins.

<br />
Just want to tell that at the moment I work with two companies. So that's why lately tak banyak update entries. Sebab letih. Sometimes gerak dari rumah pukul 7.40 AM and going back home at 12.00 AM. Tidur kurang empat jam sebab bila sampai rumah asyik nak karaoke dulu pakai Youtube sampai pukul 3.00 AM...muahaha.<br />
<br />
Anyway, last Wednesday KL diserang dengan flash flood. Nasib baik saya pergi kerja dengan LRT. Surrounding area was flooded heavily even though it was raining cats and dogs for less than three hours only.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqKxBsI5k0QTU6D56g28a0gWl80OEan1HxYPVMKsTaIO8ZuHiCwnQY_n8x9vZdK9mw6v8630Vbe191ph8Tp_HcLWFD9O6EMHb8OButJqlbO3BsZOz8NsHhW1P91Qo8BgnsdkFrHRAwKoS0/s1600/IMG-20130410-WA0006.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="227" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqKxBsI5k0QTU6D56g28a0gWl80OEan1HxYPVMKsTaIO8ZuHiCwnQY_n8x9vZdK9mw6v8630Vbe191ph8Tp_HcLWFD9O6EMHb8OButJqlbO3BsZOz8NsHhW1P91Qo8BgnsdkFrHRAwKoS0/s320/IMG-20130410-WA0006.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Crazy right?!</span></div>
<br />
KL kan, biasa la. But then again, what's the purpose of SMART Tunnel? Omnomnom... Kat KL ni cepat naik air, tapi surut pun cepat juga.<br />
<br />
Okay, back to the story, even though the rain stopped quite early, I got out from the office a quarter to 10 since I had to accompany my sideline Section Head sebab her husband kena tahan for investigation tiba-tiba. Mula-mula ingatkan sampai pukul 8.00 PM je but dragged until almost 10.00 PM. She said she penakut and tak berani tinggal seorang dalam office. My colleague from the other level pernah cakap dia dengar bunyi orang berlari belakang dia tapi tak nampak. He was on late night shift at that time.<br />
<br />
Great, saya pun penakut juga. Tapi sebab saya hero dalam cerita ni, come on! So show some courages. Hehe<br />
<br />
So I jokingly said, "Nanti belanja minum eh?"<br />
<br />
And the next day, she did! Whoaa...<br />
<br />
Walaupun hari-hari pergi kerja akan lalu the franchise, tapi sekali je saya pernah beli. Sebab a cup of mocha coffee pun dah costs for atleast 10 bucks. <br />
<br />

<br />
At first I rejected her treat sebab that night I meant it as a joke. I think she must feel guilty sebab saya temankan dia sampai lewat malam.<br />
<br />
So yesterday I just knew that basement parking pun banjir and one of the High level Manager's BMW 5 Series tak boleh start engine.<br />
<br />
I don't know why I tell this. Rubbish at all! Haha...<br />
<br />
Anyway, saya nak tidur dah. So, good night and take care.<br />
