When The Mind Nibbles...

A wet Friday the 13th

2012-01-13T16:28:00.003+11:00

Oh hujan lagi.... sudah 3 hari berturut2..non stop...
ada parts in Ktn yg dah banjir...

*****
Curhat di hari Jumaat:

Saya geram sebab.....

-ada org 'cerdik' park kereta dlm porch kat tadika..patut 3-4 kereta blh muat, tapi sebab u brader dah conquer the whole lot, org lain tak blh nak masuk.
encik, i tau la kete u besar...susah ke nak manouver power steering u supaya kete besar u tu blh ke tepi sedikit, supaya org lain yg kereta kicik nak hantar anak time hujan2 ni pun blh masuk kereta dlm porch tu.
jadi dapatlah kita bersama2 tidak basah, dan anak2 pun tak kena hujan...COMPRENDE?
kalau setakat main jenguk2 je tapi action nak alih kete nan hado....how??? jgn la selfish brader..please be considerate to other parents as well!

Saya geram lagi sebab.....
-lepas tu pegi kat satu tempat lagi, kete kicik lak parking sesedap rasa....block pathway. kereta lain tak blh nak lalu..
adik kicik, u tak blh kena air hujan kah mcm witch kat dlm citer Shrek 3??
org lain basah kena hujan kool je....
Nasib baik ai dpt voucher buku 1malaysia... sejuk sket hati...lalalalalala

conclusion:
the size of a car does not correlates with the number of neurons in the brain...ngaaahahahaha
sel2 otak tak berhubung kekdahnya..sekian!

Bila mentaliti org Malaysia nak berubah lebih baik???
**yawwwnnnnnnnnn**

Friday Prayer

2012-01-06T16:27:00.005+11:00

I am scrolling down my fb wall.
nampak perempuan2 je yg rajin hapdet.
yg jantz2 x dop..
bagus la...
pi masjid, dengar khutbah...solat jumaat.
alhamdulillah....

tapi kesian kat adik2 cleaner 3-4 ketul nih..
last week termiss solat jumaat
terlepak kat satu bilik
siap ternasyid lagu exist
Tak terpelik sgt
sebab dh byk kali tgk situasi mcm tu
Org lelaki yg dah cukup umur, TERmiss solat jumaat (dgn sengaja tanpa rasa bersalah)

Dolu2 kalu gi KLCC, sementara tunggu boifren gi smayang..
time dok melangut tu...berduyon-duyon kaum XY yg beragama Islam bersuka ria dlm KLCC makan2, jalan2, lepak2 hisap2 rokok, dating2..

Mungkin mereka tgh bermusafir?
Mungkin mereka ni muka je mcm melayu tp sbnrnya bukan beragama islam (geng2 rojak non muslim)?
Mungkin mereka tak cukup lagi 3 kali berturut2 ponteng solat jumaat?
Mungkin mereka belum cukup umur??? -->impossible!
Atau mungkin mereka tengah datang bulan??
ngeeehehehehehehehehe...
Wallahu'alam..

Berbalik kpd adik2 cleaner ni
Saya rasa terpanggil (eceh...) utk menegur mereka
Bukannya apa..rasa mcm bersalah lak kalu buat senyap je. Dok gitu?

So saya pun round2 kat bilik belakang
apa alasan nak ketuk bilik ek?
TAkkan nak main redah je kot?

Ok la... meh kita try

"tok tok tok..." (ketuk pintu)
ada budak intai ikut blind
Pintu pun terbukak...
ada 4 org semuanya.. sorang tgh baring2 atas lantai, sorang tgh makan, sorang kat kerusi, sorang lg bukak pintu.
Kot ada yg nyorok blkg pintu, wa tatau la pulak.

"sorry ye dik, nak check bilik je..dengar mcm ada suara..ingatkan ada staff baru. sebab sblm ni rasanya takde org"

**Seme muka tak de perasaan**

"eh U all tak pergi semayang jumaat ke? dah masuk waktu kan?"

**tak de respon, seme buat muka kayu**

"ke u all org yg sama tak pergi smayang jumaat jugak last week? (budak yg tgh mkn mcm angguk2 kepala sambil suap nasik dgn best tanpa henti).
sorry ye dik, bukan nak menyibuk, cuma nak tegur je ni. sebab last week ada yg tak pergi solat, siap buat bising2 lagi. ni pun tak pergi solat jugak. kalau blh pergi semayang jumaat ye"

**respon nan hado jugak, tak de ckp apa pun. tutup pintu**

ish ish ish..... hopefully ada yg terasa malu la...
bukan malu kat saya tapi malu kat yang Satu tu...
Saya pun malu...
huhuhuhuhu...... :(

p/s: takde gaya nak gi solat pun budak2 tu...still berkabung dalam bilik.

~tentang D.o.B.i~

2012-01-03T19:09:00.004+11:00

Sekarang ni musim hujan di Kuantan..
ada masa tu sampai 3-4 hari hujan non stop.
Kdg2 tu baju2 kitorg tersidai kat ampaian berhari2, baru nak kering.Tu pun sejuk2 je rasa baju tu…lembab ke apo eh?

Jadi dgn rasa ~~sukahati~~ terpaksa, saya pun menghantar la beberapa kali baju2 busuk masham kotor tu ke laundry depaaaan umah nun.

Memang la memudahkan dan menjimatkan masa. Kurang 3 house chores nak kena buat; basuh, sidai dan lipat.

Kisah I:

First time dolu2, pernah hantar cuci toto.

Skali nak collect, pekerja dia tercari2 nombor resit tu, tak jumpa.

Ekceli, saya nmpk je toto tu ada atas rak.

So saya ckp la, yg toto hijau tu saya punya.

Tapi pekerja dia ni ~~degil~~ tidak bersetuju dgn statement saya.

dia ckp taaaak, yg tulis kat resit tu tak sama mcm resit saya. Nama org lain.

Huk oloh.. then I said, eh saya rasa mmg saya punya toto ni…awak salah letak resit kot.

“bukan ni kak…saya tau, ni org lain punya. Haritu ada org lain htr warna hijo jugak”

Ok fine, awak cuba call customer yg kat resit tu, tanya dia toto dia kaler apa.

Tet tet tet tet, ”ni dari dobi tuuuuuut….ada htr toto nak cuci…. Kaler hijau ke?...coklat?...oooo…ok..tak, tanya aje”

Dlm hati: hah kan aku dah kata tu toto aku, tak percaya kaaaannnn

“ok la kak, akak blh amik dulu yg ni..”

Eeiiii….ada bunyi tak percaya jugak tu….tak pe tak pe…”kan saya dah kata, ni toto saya..awak tak nak dengar”

Kisah II

Htr 2 load baju2 ke Laundry yg sama jugak (dah tuuu…dekat, convenient..layan je lah).

Babah aiman yg turun nk collect. Lamaaa tu dia dtg balik, “eh pi la turun, dia x jumpa baju”

“ishhhh…apa cer ni”

Load pertama berjaya saya jumpa setelah meng’kelebek’ semua bungkusan baju yg ada kat rak situ, sambil memberi sepatah dua kata kpd pekerja tu.

Saya mmg dah hot dah sebab skali lagi, resit tu nama org lain.

Maka saya pun sound la kat pekerja dia…sebab 2x kena mcm ni. Asyik tertukar resit.

Second load berpeluh jugak la cari. Go come go come tak jumpa2 jugak.

Aduuhhh dlm hati ada panassss!

“cuba awak tgk kat dlm machine ni..kot2 tgh basuh ke.. tgh dry kan ke”

“tak de kak. dlm tu baju org lain”

Budak ni, pegi check pun tak, confident je ckp tak de.

“mcmana awak buat kerja ni? Kalau bj saya hilang mcmana?”

“tak apa la kak, kalau ada org terambil..biasanya dia pulangkan”

“amboiii senang nya awak ckp, tu kalau org tu baik..dia nak la pulangkan.. dpt org yg tak baik? Lepas tu kalau baju saya tu mahal2…hah mcmana? Senang betul awak ckp ye”

**senyap**

Last tu saya berdiri dekat dgn dryer, “cuba awak tgk dlm ni ada tak bj saya”

Minah tu pun pergi la bukak…jeng jeng jeng… ada pun bj!!

“oohh..belum siap lagi kak”

Eeeeiii…baru terkulat2 depan ai…

“nanti dah siap saya kol akak”

Cehhh..dah la tak ckp sori!

Ptg tu jugak tetiba dpt msg ni “ bj madam dah siap”

terus ai jadi madam! perli kah??

so petang tu babah aiman pegi amek. Ai tak rela nk tgk muka org tu hokeh..

Kisah III

Smlm baru tersedar, Suar jeans saya dgn suar jeans baru babah Aiman hilaaaaannnnggggggg!!!

Arrghh tensionnya…

I am sure I sent in to the laundry sebab mmg x basuh kat umah.

Smlm pi tanya laundry tu, dia kata tak de pun jeans.

Aku laaaa……..

Takkan hilang mcm tu je kot. Dah la jeans tu je yg best di pakai sebab pinggang dia ngam2..x yah nak pakai2 belt dah…

Uwaaaaaaaaaa…… sedih mak!!

Seri Pacific Kuale Lumpor...amboooiiiiii

2011-12-28T20:00:00.004+11:00

2 weeks ago, babah aiman had to attend a workshop in KL.
Yeayyy....dapat pulak stay kat seri pacific hotel...previously known as the Pan Pacific Hotel.
alaaa...yg depan The Mall tu... (nama dolu2 Yaohan)
Zaman2 student dulu, rajin menapak gi situ..perghhhhh gagah betul kaki ini melangkah dari Titiwangsa ke Chow Kit ke Jln TAR dan etc!
Kat hotel tu jugak la, ai ngan hasben ai stay satu mlm lps wedding reception kitorg.
Hahahahahahaha...layaaaannn!

~Peace y'all~

So Aiman was excited to go to the hotel.
Reason: Naik main swimming pool.
Gegeh I packed his swimming suit ngan goggle ngan floaters..
Disebabkan hari Ahad tu, ada course kat sini, so we all bertolak ke KL pun dah petang.
Singgah Gombak dulu hantar Reena, lepas tu dpt invi gi umah sebelah yg kebetulan baru terima menantu...depa buat makan2 bbq + sambut besday menantu baru.
Dah melantak semua, terus gi hotel..dlm 10-15 min dah pun sampai.
Koya dpt bilik mcm jakun..hahahahaha
Aiman dok oooooohhhh aaaaaahhhhh ooooohhhh aaaaaaahhhhh
Seronok tgk dia excited ;D

~Adik meng-explore- ruang bilik mandi~

~Best jugak merangkak kat hallway ni~

~Abaaaang, wait for me!!~

The next day, lps brekkie kat hotel, babah aiman pun terus gi workshop (same place, different level).
So bermula lah masa melayan anak2...
Bagi makan cukup2 baru bawak pergi main kat pool.
But it was quite a disappointment tgk swimming pool dia.
Tak la besar mana.
Even utk budak2 pun agak kecik saiz pool tu.
and one thing for sure I was not happy with the kiddy pool.
What because?
Ok, starting depth was 0.5m..lepas tu kalu budak tu pergi ke tengah sket, terus ada slope & jadi 1m.
aiseyman...mana buleh buat kiddy pool 1m?
tak happening budak2 nak main..setakat main kat tangga dia je..
Ada slope pulak tu..very the dangerous you know!
Kalu budak tu kecik tak sampai semeter, dibuatnya tgh hepi2 swimming tetiba sampai kat the other end, kaki tak jejak lantai..mau tenggelam hokeh!
and I knowwwwww mcmana rasanya lemas tauuu!
Huhuhuhuhuhu.....

~Aiman pasrah main kat tangga sajork!~

So in the end, sambil kendong adik, I warned Aiman to swim dekat2 tangga tu je..jgn harap pergi ke tengah, altho he was wearing his floaters.
Kang kalu jadi apa2, takkan nak terjun dlm pool dgn adik skali kot??
Dah la lifeguard dia rilek2 baca paper kat hujung nuuuuuuuun...
Berpeluh2 tunggu Aiman abis main..
Nasib baik air sejuk..tak la liat sgt bila panggil dia naik.
Last2 sambung swimming dlm bath tub..hehehehe..dgn warm water, lg best Aiman kata!

Stayed there for 2 nites.
Bila tghari, dah bosan..gi kuar jln2 kat Mall depan tu.
Tapi ada Parkson je.. kat kontan ni pun ada parkson gak..kui3x.
Last day there, we all balik dulu sebab babah Aiman only finished his workshop ~5pm
So tok abah la yg kena dtg amik kami anak beranak, balik ke gombak.
Esoknya, off to kuantan sudaaaaa......
And aiman was asking: bila lagi kita nak dok hotel ma??
Saya dengan ini mengforward pertanyaan anak teruna ini kepada babahnya...hohohohoho!

Masterchef Malaysia

2011-12-15T19:11:00.008+11:00

Woohoooo....3rd entry of the day
Kompem gB terkuar bijik mata dia.... muaaaaaahahahahahahahaahahahahaha!!

Ok sapa sini peminat siri MCM?
Dulu masa kat down under, kitorg follow masterchef australia..yg season 1 (Poh kalah to another lady sebab dia buat nasik ayam)- tp skrg Poh mcm lagi glam sebab dah ada rancangan sendiri: 'Poh's Kitchen'

Berbalik to masterchef malaysia....
Saya bukan le peminat kipas susah mati..kalau terasa nk tgk, saya tukar la ke channel 104.. tu pun setelah meminta kebenaran dari Aiman..hahaha
"aimaaan, mama nak tgk masterchef buleh?"
"Boleehhhhh"
Baruuuu la blh tgk, kalu tak memanjang dok layan kartun!

So skrg ni tinggal dlm 11 peserta je kot selepas Leena terkuar smlm, lepas kalah masak nasik ambeng.
Last week yg terkuar adlh Saiful ngan kak zuraidah.
Selama ni saiful mmg selamat walopun byk kali kena test time elimination round tp last week dah takde rezeki gamaknya..

But i very the kagum, a rubber tapper yg sangat pandai memasak..cayalah!!
kak zuraidah tak kenal sgt..sebab jarang sgt dia kena interview (all this while she played safe I think)
balik2 muka sama yg dok mengomen.
motip???

And saya mesti tergelak kalu dgr Brian bercakap..
dgn contact lens dia, ngan topi dia..
"Brian rasa..bla bla bla...tapi Brian akan cuba lakukan yg terbaik"
hehehehehe..

And to date the only contestant yg berjaya dpt pin kebal (tp dah terpaksa pulangkan balik dah to save her from the elimination round) slps mengalahkan Chef Norman was Deena :)

What about Imelda?
Mesti tak leh tinggal kipas dia, bunga besar sejambak kat kepala, rantai besar2 kat leher..
Dia kan pereka aksesori.. a business strategy I think?

So far ramai yg favour Ezani (dia ni adik junior sy masa skolah dulu..hahaha nak jugak ada sangkut paut tuh!!) dgn Zamir

Ada lagi a few contestants..tak larat nk tepek semua...
Pandai diorg ni masak within the stated time....muda2 pulak tu!
Sungguh terkesima!
Dan lg satu sebab kenapa sy tgk MCM ni kerana saya nk tgk style tudung contestant2..
yeahhh lilit lilit lilit...hehe.

Apa2 pun chef wan saya tetap di hatiku..kan laling..hehehe

Next year boleh la u try your luck dlm MCM ni....I jadi ur die hard fan!
Kalu Brian ngan topi dia, Imelda ngan bunga2 dia...
u pulak pakai pagoda ngan kain pelikat..pergghh ..trademark gittew!!!
muaaahahahahaha

May the best chef wins!!

Untuk lunch hari ini, kami telah ke 'Warung Aja' di Bukit Setongkol.
Tak sure nama warung tu mmg 'warung ajerr' ke ataupun nama tokeh warung tu 'Aja' yg telah dipendekkan namanya dari 'khadija/hajar/hafiza etc'

Bye bye October..

2011-11-01T15:13:00.000+11:00

Lets wrap up the month of October with a summary on my Bro's wedding (Boy):

-Early Oct:
I shall start with this statement......my one and only brother, Boy got married (*cough cough*).
Traveled all the way from Gombak to Singapore and to Tanjung Pinang (kepulauan Riau).
Arrived on Wednesday pm, received a warm welcome (harus la kannn hahaha) from the bride's family, treated with sedap-makan-x-hengat meal + air kelapa fresh oh menyegarkan. Late evening, checked in at the hotel.

~bapa dan pakcik pengantin lelaki sedang memenuhkan pinggan/mangkuk masing-masing~

Thursday:
Come afternoon, time for acara 'Siraman' for the bride and groom (separate event...ceh ingatkan ada wet tshirt contest muaaaahahahahahahahaha).
Evening: Malam berinai for both the bride and groom (but i didnt go, the kids fell asleep, so just stayed at the hotel).

~Tempat bersiram pengantin~

~Kakak pengantin menyiram adiknya..kompem u tak busuk setahun (je) hokeyyy!~

~Door gifts hari bersiram; sarong for the men, shawl for the women~

Friday morning:
Getting ready bersiap segala bagai sebab akad nikah di sebelah pagi.
Main mekap2..pakai baju cantek2...
Berkumpul kat lobby dgn hantaran2 mak nenek
Ada sessi salam2 nasihat2 antara pengantin ngan mak bapak pengantin.
Kelihatan syahdu di situ.
Namun kakak pengantin ngan adik pengantin bz posing amik gbr dgn sepupu sepapat yg ikut skali ;p

~Pelamin klasik~

~Barang2 hantaran~

Majlis bermula dgn acara berbalas pantun.
Sangat kagum tgk org berpantun secara ad hoc...
Walopun most of the time i was not really paying much attention because adik was grumpy (sleepy actually and it was hot in the house)
Luckily Aiman made himself busy playing with the ipad.
At last the tok kadi arrived, if not surely the pantun session will go on and on and on hehehe
Muka Boy tersangatlah control macho.. (ala i tau dlm hati ada cuak khennnn...lalalalala)

~Pengantin lelaki kontrol ayu...~

Dgn sekali lafaz (eceh seperti abang iparnya juga), Boy pun selamat ler menjadi suami (*cough cough lagi).
And finally the bride pun keluar la bilik (they were not allowed to see each other from the day we arrived until the day of the akad).
Baca takliq etc, sessi gambar2...sessi salam menyalam..sessi deraian ayaq mata..
yang penting sessi makaaannn...yesssss!
Abang ipar pengantin lelaki sangat sporting menyumbangkan suara merdunya secara live, dgn menyanyikan lagu p.ramlee -->; Engkau laksana bulan
Cayalah!!!!

Evening:
Went to the one and only big mall kat situ (ala2 the Store kot), Ramayana.. teman adik buat manicure (tak sempat nak buat jugak huhuhuhu)

Malam:
Had dinner at Lembu Potong..eh jap ke Potong Lembu??? Lupa la nama tempat dia.. makan siput gong gong (rasa mcm sotong, i loike :) )

~Siput glamer yang kenyal lagi sedap~

Saturday
Reception day
Tunggu lamaaaaaaa sgt tahap bosan baru mobil2 datang amik bawak ke Bintan Beach Resort.
Food as usual, mabeles...ada stalls with bakso, roti kirai, satay, nasik berlauk mcm2, ais krim. desserts etc.
Heaps of people....sampai parents pengantin lelaki duduk atas stage 5 jam kelaparan sebab tak makan (hohohohoho).

Rupanya style kat situ the parents from both sides must be on the stage with the bride and the groom because the guests will go up to wish them & bersalaman.
I think that's how it should be done, dah nama pun raja sehari...sepatutnya pengantin stay put dan org pergi jumpa pengantin dan bersalam-salaman, instead of the pengantin yg pergi dan bersalam-salaman dgn orang..tak ke?
Sunday:
Welcome back to Malaysia :)

*********************************************************
Majlis Sambut Menantu

-Was held at the Dewan Merak Kayangan Felda
-Typical wedding reception, nothing to elaborate hehehe
-But since mother of the groom did not want any pengapits, so the kakak pengantin had to go up on the stage and steal the light quite a few times (betulkan kain pengantin la, pengantin duduk tak center la, pengantin senget la bla bla bla)..
vaahhh glamer ai..mesti dlm gambar ada byk kelibat ai...hahahaha (sorry ye pengantin!)

~Some of the early guests~

~mari melantak~

~The groom & the bride~

~A view from the high table~

~Bukti kakak pengantin yang ter-dan-di-paksa enterprem ha ha ha~

~omg, is that the kakak pengantin again?? lalalalala~

Alhamdulillah, selesai sudah satu sinetrone....
On behalf of the family, I wish to apologize for any shortcomings throughout the event.
Tak sangka adik I dah kawen...huhuhuhu
Those childhood memories are still fresh in my mind
After 5 years of my life, u came into this world. Remember I coloured your nails, tie your hair, put make up on your face (hahaha..nasib baik you grew up to be straight!!)
I probably did that because I was in need for a sister...or maybe I didnt get enough dolls to toy around at that time muaaahahahaha!!
And I still remember how mischievous you were when u were a kid; you threw a bottle of vitamin into the toilet bowl... you poured water into the rice container (habis stok beras kat rumah jadi kembang!), u kept ur homework under the bed because you were too lazy to do it muaaahahaha and all those sorts of things boys usually do!
Aaahh..those were the days when I dictated you....ekekekekeke!!
Anyhow, you will always be my little brother...

Something from the sister to the newly wed,

Selamat Pengantin Baru to Boy & Nina
Semoga kekal bahagia hingga ke akhir hayat

Sail wisely together, upholding the Islamic pillars and virtue
For it is the base of your life
There will surely be ups and downs
And that will be the additional flavours to zest your life
I pray nothing more but the best in you together
May Allah give His grace, barakah and guidance to both of you
in venturing this new chapter of your life....

Next stop....or should I say the upcoming sinetrone --> my one and only sister's turn pulak....
hmmm....bilaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?????????? bilaaaaaaaaa???????
Mek, I wish u well, semoga cepat dipertemukan jodoh yg terbaekkkk!!!!!
muahhhhhhhhh

the v.a.l.u.e. within us

2011-09-29T16:23:00.006+10:00

Semalam separa selesai satu tugas
maka hari ini agak rileks
so pagi2 mengusung Humaira ke imigresen
nak buat passport
tapi birth cert ada kat ofis babah humaira
nak dijadikan cerita, kunci office dia tertinggal,
so babah terpaksa balik ke rumah
lepas dropped saya & humaira kat JPN
nasib baik rumah dekat aje huhuhu

Tolak la humaira dlm stroller
alamak kena naik tangga la pulak
nak angkat humaira skali dgn stroller tak larat
so terpaksa dukung dia sebelah tangan
sebelah tgn lagi tarik stroller
dlm hati "ishh...tak de sapa ke yg baik hati nk tolong angkat stroller ni?"
sebab ada la sorang dua tiga kerat mamat dok naik turun tangga
tapi takde seketul pun yg offer nak tolong seorang wanita ayu berbaju kurung sambil menggendong anak dan menarik stroller
tak pe lah... diaorg tak nampak kot..
saya invisible...
iyah iyah iyah... penat oooo...
skali sampai kaunter,
baru perasan salah office
chaiittt...
"nak buat passport kena gi immigresen..
tu office dia kat bawah tu"
alaaa....tangga lagi
so usung la adik turun tangga..
again, takde sapa pun yg baik hati nk tolong
even org kat kaunter tu pun tgk je
(terpegun sebab saya pakai baju cantik kot harini lalala)

sampai kat immigresen...tangga lagi daaaa
nasib baik 4-5 anak tangga je...
this time malas dah nk dukung humaira sebelah tgn, tarik stroller sebelah tgn lg
ku gagahi jua angkat stroller menapak tangga
terkangkang2 jugak la...hahahaha...abis ayu!
humaira jugak yg best..sengih2 je dia

dah amik borang, skali gambar lak takde
bijak bijak...
takleh nak guna mesin amik gbr instant tu sebab humaira baby lagi
kena amik kat kedai
so kami pun ke bandar,
amik gambar humaira
good girl adik, tak buat perangai time apek tu amik gbr..hehehe

hahaha....bulatnyaaaaaa mata saya!!

settle part gambar, terus ke imigresen balik..
org pun dah ramai..
fotostat itu ini, amik nombor
bla bla bla... ok done!
1 hr later boleh dtg collect...

and finally...
yeayyyy...adik dah ada passport!!

Nota kaki:

moral of the story:
1. next time nak buat apa2 kena fully prepared...ngeh3x

2. buat passport skrg sgt cepat.. saya suka :)

3. seronoknya rumah dekat (eh apa kaitan? hahaha)

4. kenapa ofis gomen selaluuu takde ramp?
kenapa? kenapa?
kesian tau kat org yg sorong anak guna stroller
ataupun org yg berkerusi roda
atau org yg sakit lutut nak mendaki tangga tu..

5. org zaman sekarang makin kurang value dlm diri. takde conscience utk tolong org yg dlm kesusahan (walaupun saya tadi takde la susah mana pun, blh je buat sendiri. kalau kat sydney dulu...
confirm ada org akan tolong push/angkat the stroller).
and it made me think, in our daily life how often do people give a seat to the elderly/preggy women
(let say in a bus or putra lrt)
or would you stop and help a blind person to cross the road?
benda2 yg nampak mcm simple tp ada big impact
patutnya benda mcm ni, tak yah nk byk fikir
tolong je la kan

but on a contrary to that, in some situation
some people might argue and say:
zaman skrg ni bahaya
tak boleh senang2 nak percaya kat org
sometimes we do want to help
tapi takut org yg nak mintak tolong tu hanya berpura2
or org tu jahat dan ada intention lain
ie. nak pukau/samun/bunuh/rompak/rogol etc...
tak nak lah amik risiko

true true....tapi itu kalau scenario dia lain
ni kalu setakat nak bg seat kat org tua,
tolong bwkkan barang berat ke..
common sense la kan
apa2 pun it all depends on nawaitu masing2 la kot..
tapi harap2 jgn la nanti jadi mcm di negara lain
sampai ada org mati tergolek atas jalan kena hit and run
tapi org sekeliling just tengok aje
and act like nothing happened...
kejam tu
(one of the many real story in the US, caught on camera!)

"Mokcik mari nok jupe Sultang".....

2011-09-27T11:33:00.006+10:00

Petang smlm lepas amik budak2, babah Aiman teringin nak mkn McD.
Aiman pun excited, nak pegi kat McD yg dekat dgn sand
So kami pun pergi la ke TC
Dah siap bayar parking (sebelum masuk parking kena bayar dulu singgit.)
Skali tgk McD gelap...tutup rupanya.... under renovation.
Haishhh...hampa.
Aiman nak mkn KFC pulak (next to McD)
Tapi tekak tak rasa nak mkn ayam
So next plan, ke McD Megamall...
Langit dah makin mendung
Hujan pun dah turun renyai2..
Lepas kuar dari TC, melepasi kawasan istana..
Ternampak 2 org makcik tua...slowww je jalan..
One of them cuba nak tahan kereta..maybe nak tumpang kot.
Kitorg terlepas ke depan dah....
"eh pusing balik pusing balik... kita bagi la makcik tu tumpang... kesiannya"
So kami pun u-turn
Berenti tepi makcik tu and tanya nak ke mana
"nak gi steseng bah lama kat sg kuantang tu" makcik kurus tu bgtau
Sorang lg makcik, agak gempal badannya
tp tak secergas makcik kurus ni.. jalan pun bertongkat.. nampak mengah.
Saya pun turun, bg depa masuk kereta.
Nampak kaki makcik gempal tu mcm bengkak..kesiannya....
Dalam kereta.. borak2 la dgn makcik2 dua org ni
tapi makcik kurus yg byk bercakap
makcik gempal tak berapa larat nak bersembang...
rupanya dtg dari kuala pahang (mana ni ek??)
"mokcik ni nok gi jupe sultang"
"nak buat apa jumpa sultan?"
"nok mitok duit.. buak blanje"
"selalu ke makcik pegi istana?"
"baru ni dtg doh.. ni dtg semula. tapi dok tunggu2 dari siang tadi, sultang takdok gi kl. doh kita nok tunggu takut hujang, nok balik dumoh lg..kekgi gelap..takdok sape nok tupang ke kita. Ni ade jugok jual2 ikang kering..adik nok?"
"tak pe la makcik, kat umah pun dah byk dah ikan kering"
"selalu sultan bg berapa makcik?"
"ada laaa..dlm RM50, buleh la buat blanje"

Dlm hati..ishhh..alahai kesiannya.....sanggup turun naik bas, tumpang org semata2 nak ke istana mengharapkan ihsan sultan......sedihnya sy rasa :(

Masa kereta berhenti kat traffic light, tetiba ada polis trafik
neno neno suh stop bg laluan
nampak mcm kete sultan
ke bini sultan?
tak nampak..cermin gelap.
Mula2 tu makcik-makcik ni dlm dilema nak patah balik ke tak pergi istana jumpa sultan
Dah la senja, hujan pulak..dibuatnya bukan sultan?
So kitorg pun suggest tak payah la jumpa harini... next time aje la..

Sambung berborak
dan kesimpulan yg sy dpt:
Makcik kurus duduk berdua
Tinggal berhampiran dgn rumah makcik gempal
Makcik gempal duduk sorang
ada 2 anak..tp tak dipedulikan (mengikut citer makcik kurus ni)
Makcik gempal taknak kena htr gi umah org2 tua
biar la dia duduk kat umah buruk tu sampai mati katanya... :(
Sama2 org susah
aku jaga ko, ko jaga aku....
Makcik gempal ada diabetes
dan selalu sakit sendi
tu yg susah nak berjalan
(mcmana ubat2 dia ek....)

Dalam dok borak2 tu....sampai la kami ke destinasi.
Stesen bas lama berdekatan sg kuantan.
Pelik gak...ada ke bas lalu kat sini...
tapi makcik kurus insist mmg ada bas..
Ok la kalu mcm tu..
Sebelum depa keluar dari kereta,
kami pun hulur la kat makcik2 setakat yg termampu.
Semoga sumbangan yg tak seberapa ni dpt la membantu makcik2 sedikit sebanyak
beli apa2 yg patut...
Berair mata makcik gempal...sayu
makcik kurus tak berenti ucap terima kasih
makcik gempal pun senyum je
Dipelawanya kami ke rumah dia... :)
Semoga Allah memelihara mereka berdua...........

Nota kaki:
Dah lama malaysia merdeka... tapi status hidup rakyat terutama di kampung2, di kawasan pedalaman masih tak byk berubah....yg kaya bertambah kaya, yg miskin bertambah miskin.. huhuhuhu

Have a Blessed hari Raya Everyone!!!

2011-08-25T12:45:00.005+10:00

(pic source here)

Syawal is approaching very soon...
It's a festive time for every Muslim to share the glory, happiness and celebration.

A gentle reminder to us:

Lock your house!
Check your car!
Drive carefully!
Rest in between your driving!
Bak kata Aussie:
STOP.REVIVE.SURVIVE
Top up your TouchnGo!
Spare cash for duit raya!
Dont forget the sampul raya as well..takkan bagi duit togel je kot? hehehe ;D
Jgn la melantak bersungguh sangat like there is no tomorrow dah..kesihatan perlu dijaga!
Remember to take along your medicine/s!
Remember your loved ones!

To warga KL..enjoy the empty roads
I'm pretty sure there'll be plenty of 'international' faces loitering around
and you'll be like "Eh aku ni kat Msia kah?"
hahaha

Saya dengan ini menyusun jejari yg tak seberapa runcing
memohon maaf kalau ada silap dan salah
SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDIL FITRI kepada semua
MAAF ZAHIR & BATIN
Jemput la beraya ke rumah kami di Kuantan (tapi minggu raya comfirm la kami takdak hehehe)

Take care

**Dont forget the less fortunate, may they be in the blessings of Allah s.w.t always**

Donation Plea.......

I copied from this website

Let us help our brothers and sisters....

*********************************************************

Our beloved prophet (pbuh) told us:

"It is the month of charity, and a month in which a believer's sustenance is increased. Whoever gives food to a fasting person to break his fast shall have his sins forgiven, and he will be saved from the fire of hell, and he shall have the same reward as the fasting person, without his reward being diminished at all."

Nine millions of our Muslim brothers are suffering in the drought-ridden Somalia since the past two years. This is the worst drought in 60 years which has sparked a severe food crisis and high malnutrition rates. The Kenyan camp, Dadaab, is overflowing with tens of thousands of refugees. Thousands of families arrive in poor conditions often after walking for days in search of food. Up to 2,000 Somali refugees are crossing the border into Ethiopia every day, Some of them died before they managed to arrive at the camps.

There are thousands of children who arrived at the camps without their parents and parents without children because they are too weak for the journey.

Child malnutrition rates in the worst affected areas are more than double the emergency threshold of 15 per cent and are expected to rise further. High mortality rates among children are also reported. The Somali catastrophe is the worst humanitarian disaster that has claimed the lives of 29,000 children under 5 years of age in the past 3 months

Almost 99% of Somalians are Muslims. They are desperate for food. In the spirit of ukhwah and humanity we invite everyone to join us to raise fund to help them.

Berbuka di Lila Wadi Restaurant

2011-08-18T16:59:00.000+10:00

Selamat sudah menjamu selera di Lila Wadi last Tuesday nite.
Conclusion: Kenyang puas hati :)

Sempena bulan Ramadhan ni, Lila Wadi mempromosikan (eceh..duta tak berbayar!):

a) BBQ set and blh choose from:
-Beef set (ada sirloin la, lamb la etc + a bit of chicken/seafood)
- Seafood set (seafood semata2)
- Chicken set (+ ada sikit2 of seafood/beef i think)

b) Authentic Thai food pulak ada 5 jenis set:
- Siakap 3 rasa set
- Siakap phad phed set
- Cashew nut chicken set
- Roasted duck set
- Pattani Beef sirloin set

Dalam each set tu ada la anak2 dia...ie. tom yum goong, sambal belacan..apa ntah lagi...plus desserts and drinks and steamed rice

So depends on us whether to choose set utk cater for 2pax or 3-4pax
Harga pulak kalau utk 2pax is between RM 55-65
and for 3-4 pax dalam RM 85-90 gitu...

We opted for the Thai food set (roasted quack quack) and we got:
-steamed rice
-tom yum goong (prawn)
-mushroom tempura
-sambal belacan (perghh pedas pedas) dgn timun/bendi/kacang pjg/terung
-quack quack (byk portion dia, jenuh nak perabih)
-drinks (we ordered pandan cool-rasa not bad)
-kurma
-apa ntah dessert ni yg santan + water chesnut kot (ala2 kat Johnny's tu)
-mango cheese cake

Aiman suh tapau cheesecake nih

Pandan cool (not bad rasa dia, cooling...mcm rasa serai wangi sket2)

So sesiapa yg interested, boleh la try out this Lila Wadi Restaurant :)

Is it halal enough??

2011-07-15T17:04:00.005+10:00

Earlier today ada sorang agent datang utk promote pasal unit trust.
I do not have any knowledge whatsoever pasal benda2 mcm ni, so dengar je la apa yg dia explain. Sebab dah mmg kije dia pun kan.
So pung pang pung pang sambil dok dengar dia explain terkeluar la pasal simpan2 duit kat A*B dgn KW*P etc ni.

Saya dah penah dengar & baru2 ni pun ada dpt email pasal pelaburan dlm skim ni yg dari segi Islamicnya dipertikaikan/diragui.
Dikhabarkan banyak pelaburan dibuat ke atas certain companies yg tidak sepatutnya.
Haaa...dah tu mcmana?
Kdg2 menggaru jugak kepala ni dok pikir...
Malaysia ni konon2 mengaku negara Islam
tapi ..........................................??........................................................
how?? how?? how??

(pic source fr here)

Tu kalu bab2 pelaburan
Kalu bab makan pulak, ni yg hangen ni...
Kata duduk kat Msia,
patutnya pejam mata je la masuk kedai makan
unless kedai tu sah2 dia tulis non-halal la kan..
ataupun mmg very the clear-mlear tu kedai makan cha ya nun alip ke ada oink2 tergantung ke apa ke...yg tu ko masuk nak order mkn apa hal??!

In my 2 cents opinion, patutnya kalau kat hotel2 ke...restaurant2 ke..cafe2 ke...
sah2 la kena guna halal product, serve halal dishes...halal compliant!
Tak payah kita susah2 hati nak tanya ni halal ke tak.. tu halal ke tak..
Ni bulan depan nak start posa, mencanak2 la hotel2 dok offer ramadhan buffet.
Tapi as a consumer, kena la make sure mana yg dpt halal accreditation.. jgn main melantak je... (hmmm...kat zenith hotel ada promo ramadhan buffet nnti..halal lak tu ngeh3x)

tu bab makan..
kalu bab barang2 basah??
ayam? itik? kambing? lembu?
yg jual kat hypermarket segala mak nenek market tu?
sure ke cara penyembelihan dia?
pastu mcmana lak dia proses?
arrghhhhhh.................tension mak!

dulu masa kat oz,
acceptable la nak kena tanya halal ke tak.....
kdg2 depa yg bukak mulut dulu inform bgtau yg ni tak halal, yg tu tak halal
yg ni ada alcohol etc etc
Kalau depa x sure ingredients yg digunakan, they'll find out for you..
so kita pun tak la susah hati sangat.

So bila kat negara sendiri ni,
rasa mcm tak patut je kita terpaksa tanya halal ke tak makanan itu ini..
haishhh.....*sigh*

Berbalik kepada agent unit trust tadi..
so I ikut je lah apa u kata...hahahahaha
Janji duit I yg ciput tu suci gittew
Lepas ni nak letak semua dalam Tabung Haji!!!! (eceh macam la duit banyak sangat!)

Awak nak jadi apa? Saya nak jadi......

2011-06-28T13:13:00.003+10:00

Time sekolah dolu2... kalau cikgu tanya kitorg kat kelas, bila besar nak jadi apa?
Mesti berduyun akan cakap nak jadi:
-Doktor
-Peguam
-Polis
-Cikgu

Kira profesion yg kat atas tu yg paling byk org pilih la...
Bila dah besar dan tak comot dah, ada la tambahan kepada option2 di atas:

-Businesswoman
-Arkitek
-Akauntan
-Peramugari (eceh..nasib baik I kurang tinggi je..kalu tak dah selamat jadi Awan Dania..ekekekekeke)
-Penyanyi/Pelakon (eeeeee.....adik2, sila abis belajar dulu ok!)

Saya dulu kalau cikgu tanya...ikut sedap mulut je cakap nak jadi doktor la... arkitek la.. keje kat bank la....
Adik saya pulak dulu2 time kecik, dia nak jadi cashier...sukaaa sgt cash register......hahahahahahahahahahahaha..Ka-ching! Ka-ching!

Aiman pulak kalu tanya nk jadi apa, dia nak jadi askar... ada sekali tu nak jadi boss. Baru2 ni dia kata tak nak jadi askar dah... nanti dia dah tahu nak jadi apa bila besar, Aiman tell mama.
Apa2 la nak ooi.. asal jadi org yg berguna dunia & akhirat :)
Nak tanya adik, dia tak reti cakap lagi, tau tersengih2 je.
Kalau babah depa, mesti ckp...teringin nak jadi zoologist.. tak pun penternak or petani yg berjaya.. ye la, dia kan nature lover...pencinta flora dan fauna!

Bila masa HO dulu, kalu dok berkumpul ngn member2 dalam bilik, sambil release2 tension masing2 pakat nak jadi jadi businesswomen..nak bukak butik, siap ada mekap2 lagi.
Sampai skrg pun, dok pasang angan2 nak ada bisnes sendiri...
Berkonon nak jual baju serba mak nenek la
berangan nak bukak bakery/kedai makan la
Buat online business la
Nak pakat ngan adik2 bela lembu kambing la (tp nk jd sleeping partner jah hehe)
Ngeeeee........tp tu la, best berangan ni.. tgk org buat itu ini, teringin jugak nak buat itu ini...
Berangan tak rugi, tak kena bayar apa2 pun.. cuma buang masa je lah..huhuhuhu

aaaaarghh..betapa tak ada bahannya nak bercerita...
ok la, nak gi berangan buat tiramisu..tak pun cream caramel... lalalalalalalaaaa

Leadership In Action

2011-06-08T12:37:00.004+10:00

To be a LEADER....

It's not easy

RESPECT others....only then others will respect you
So please bear in mind, RESPECT is EARNED, NOT GAINED

Work in TEAM
There is no 'I' in a TEAM..harap maklum
But if you want to do everything and have it all to yourself.....then please, WORK ALONE

And stop BAD-MOUTHING other people for God's sake!
Are you that perfect??
Kalau teruk sangat, you can always tell them POLITELY and PROFESSIONALLY
So that they have the chance to correct themselves to be a better person
You wont lose a thing!!

Dont HUMILIATE your colleagues
They are human being WITH feelings....and you are obviously NOT!

(pic source: akuislam.com)

POWER, POSITION, STATUS and KNOWLEDGE is NOTHING......if you walk around with an empty hollow hyper-resonant skull, atrophic and fibrotic heart and necrotic liver with foul smelling, purulent greenish pus!!
Ewwwwww.......lariiikkkkkss*

Dont LOOK DOWN on others
Macam la awak tu tinggi sangat!

Stop being ANGRY and MISERABLE
You might be highly contagious and leaving others feeling miserable as well
Bad aura....baaadddd aura!

GROW UP and be RATIONAL
And I thought being wise comes hand in hand with age?!
My 4 year old can behave better than that (and at least he's still cute kalu mengamuk pun)

Give others a chance to TALK and you LISTEN
Not you TALK and TALK and TALK and TALK and blaaa blaaa blaaa
A GOOD leader listens, observes, think and act appropriately and diligently after much considerations for the benefit of everyone, not just him/herself

And being a LEADER, comes great RESPONSIBILITY
And with great RESPONSIBILITY, comes great TRUST
So are you sure you have done JUSTICE to yourself and others?
And are you ready to face your Creator and imply to Him that you are responsible and amanah?

Jeng jeng jeng....

So you see people....
Mari la kita cermin2 diri kita sendiri
Perbetulkan mana yang patut
Like I said earlier
It's not easy being a leader

This is just a reminder to myself (who is not a leader....I org biasa je hehehehe)
and to those who are already a leader, who will be a leader, who is not a leader but wishes to be one, who might be a leader and to everyone lah.

I'm not pointing this out to anybody in particular
It's just a general, out of the blue outburst
Kalau ada yang tersentap atau terasa... saya minta maaf.
So peace....No war ;D

Happy Birthday Aiman Sayang.....

2011-05-05T16:19:00.004+10:00

***Aiseh...owner cuti confinement, blog pun join sekaki.....***

A very HAPPY 4th BIRTHDAY to my dearest son
A.I.M.A.N

Mama saaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnggggggggggggg sangat Aiman!!!
Mmmmmmmmmmmuuuuuuuuaaaaahhhhhhhhh
Semoga anak mama menjadi anak yg soleh, berjaya di dunia dan di akhirat dan sentiasa di bawah lindungan dan rahmat Allah s.w.t
You amaze me each and every day dear.....

Semoga mereka tabah....

2011-03-25T16:09:00.002+11:00

These couple of days, something has been haunting me.
No..bukan hantu kak limah.. hok tu wat apa...
cer citer cer citer cer citer...

I came across a story about the death of a 2 mo baby.
Baby Adelia....sweet adelia.
Her life was cut short due to other people's ignorance.
She was allegedly choked to death after drinking milk.
And it happened in a nursery in SA.

This is not the first story that I came to know about.
Sedih sungguh bila baca berita mcm ni... mmg tak tahan termenangis depan komputer.
Sakit masa bersalin masih terasa, pantang pun baru je habis...tetiba anak kesayangan dah tak ada...

Plot cerita selalunya hampir sama in most cases:

Mak bapak hantar anak ke taska dgn hati separa rela sebab both are working
Anak pulak sihat2 je...senyum manis...aktif masa dihantar
Tiba2 dapat call kata anak tak bermaya; anak tak gerak; anak dah biru etc...
In the end, mak bapak hiba bawak balik anak yang dah kaku tak bernyawa..
Bila interrogate, semua tak nak mengaku.
Semua lidah kelu.
Semua buat senyap, as if tak de rasa bersalah langsung.
Ada nak mintak maaf????
Mak bapak ini hanya mahukan keadilan.
They want to know what happen the their daughter..their son...

Kepada pemilik-pemilik taska,
Tolong jangan pandang duit semata2...
Anak yang dihantar ke taska anda tu menjadi amanah anda.
Jaga la sebaik-baiknya.
Nyawa bukan boleh ditukar ganti
Jangan sebab itu anak orang, dan bukan anak sendiri...you all buat kerja tak sepenuh hati!

Kepada pihak berkuasa yang berkenaan,
Please dont talk only but NO action
setakat pung pang pung pang 3-4 hari then senyap tak guna
Hukum la mereka yang bersalah ni seberat-beratnya
Ni bila ada case mcm ni baru nak bising

# Wajibkan staff2 taska/tadika pegi training first aid, and then update every year ke apa ke..

# Wajibkan pemilik taska utk hire staff yg betul2 qualified..bukan main amik suka suki je, sampai kalu tak cukup staff, ko bawak orang gaji jaga baby kat taska..tak pun ko amik budak2 muda yang tak reti apa jaga anak orang!

# Wajibkan quota tertentu sahaja utk bilangan baby per staff

# Pegi la wat spot check kerap sket kat taska2 ni... jangan le berat sgt muntot tu nak gerak!!

# Blacklist dan tutup taska yg hampeh mcm taik kucing nih!!!!

Kepada semua parents..
Kalau ada yang mampu stay at home, alhamdulillah...lega anak2 ada depan mata kan?
Tapi zaman sekarang ni, kebanyakan kita terpaksa bekerja suami isteri...
Maka terpaksa jugak lah kita menghantar anak2 ke taska
Maybe sebelum hantar anak tu, better if kita buat survey dulu kat taska2 yang berkenan di hati sebelum di short listed-kan
Or selalu buat jugak spot check to see how they handle the kids kat taska tu...
Apa2 pun hidup mati di tangan Tuhan...
Kita tak tahu kat mana dan bila ajal datang menjengah
Kita bertawakkal padaNya...

Kepada ayah dan ibu arwah Adelia, Muhammad Nizzam Aminuddin dan Fariza Tukir
yes, we are strangers but my deepest condolence to u and ur family
May Allah give you strength during this difficult moment
Berat mata memandang, berat lagi bahu memikul...
May justice prevail!!

Yeayyy...now I have 2 of them!!

2011-03-21T18:13:00.004+11:00

Alhamdulillah.....all praise to Allah,
for yet another greatest joy.

Smlm cerita pasal bapak perokok yg letak anak kecik dia atas peha sambil pecut kete.
Harini nak citer pasal some parents yg guna car seat utk anak2 mereka.
Dulu2, zaman takde anak, tak penah amik pusing pun pasal kewujudan car seat ni.
Bila dah ada Aiman, car seat ni compulsory di Oz.
Selalunya kita boleh je pasang sendiri car seat kat kereta kita.
Ada jugak kedai yg jual car seat dan sediakan kemudahan utk tolong pasangkan skali, to make sure kita beli car seat yg betul, dan cara pasang pun betul.

Car seat ni pulak bergantung kepada umur anak2...
Utk yg newborn, sampai ke toddler
Bila dah besar sikit, up pakai booster pulak sblm boleh up up lagi pakai seat belt je (wajib for all passengers, baik passenger kat depan mahupun di belakang).

So bila anak dah kena ikat elok2 kat seat blkg, baru la mak bapak buleh start the journey.
Dulu masa Aiman baby, nak hantar dia gi bbsitter, otw meraung jer.
Time tu dah la sorang2 dok drive.
Last2 tak tahan, terpaksa la berenti kat mana2 baru blh angkat dia.
Mana boleh letak kat depan..
Nak mampos kena saman!!?
Terbabas lampu merah pun kena saman $300!
Melayang duit mak!
Eh silap, duit laki mak!

~dulu time saya kecik, saya kena ikat duduk kat seat saya, sebab tu muka saya sedih~

~bila saya dah besar sket saya duduk atas booster~

Kat msia ni, bagus la ada parents yg guna car seat utk anak2 derang.
Tapi yg tak bestnya, kebanyakan car seat tu saya perasan diletakkan di seat depan.
Pastu anak pun letak mcm tu je, tak buckle betul2...
Kalau la terjadi apa2, anak tu dah la tak strapped properly,
mau melayang cium dashboard, tak pun melayang cium cermin kete pastu boleh tergolek atas jalan.. Pastu ada kete lain tak sempat nk brake..pastu..............
huishhh....Nauzubillah!!

Mmg bagus ada child car seat ni, especially kalau kita terpaksa drive sorang2.
Takkan nak pangku baby kat atas peha kita kot.
Cuma kalau blh maybe better diletakkan car seat itu kat belakang.
Mmg kita akan ter-distracted kalau anak meraung melalak.
Kejap2 tgk belakang masa drive...kejap2 tgk belakang masa drive.
Nak buat mcmana..

Kalau letak kat car seat kat sebelah pun sama jugak,
Kejap2 toleh tepi, kejap2 toleh tepi.
Tapi rasanya letak kat seat depan lagi membahayakan compared to seat di blkg.
Tak ker??
So kena la bijak melayan anak sama.
Bagi dia puting ke, bagi dia pegang toy ke...ajak dia nyanyi2 ker...
Susah2 bagi ubat tido.. hahahahahahaha *kijam!!!*

Dua tiga hari lepas, semasa on the way balik ke rumah, saya berhenti kat satu persimpangan ni...lampu merah.
Sambil layan borak ngan Aiman, saya pun toleh ke kiri.
Huuuihhh...sedikit terkujat! (sbb bukan first time saya tgk scenario ini)
Why kenapa?
Sebab ada driver cinonet isap ting ting kat sebelah saya!!

Terer btul driver tu... rasanya umur pun tak sampai 2 tahun!
Seluar pun mcm nak terlondeh (nappy dah penuh le tu kekdahnya!)
Berdiri baeekkkk sambil pegang stereng keta dan melompat2 keriangan!
Mcmana ek driver cinonet tu nak tekan pedal brake segala bagai?
Sampai ke kaki kemetot dia tu?

Eh eh mcm empuk pulak nampak car seat special dia
Laaaaa perut Bapak dia rupanya!!
Ini sudah bagus...
2 drivers in a car!
With special ~~air~~ tummy bag

So saya follow je kete tu...
Ingatkan bapak dia nak letak balik driver cinonet tu kat sebelah..
Tapi tak pun, mereka berkongsi minat memandu bersama2 dgn kelajuan sekitar 80-90km/j
Lori, trailer, bas ada di kiri kanan jalan.
Vrrrooommmmmm dia pecut!
Bapaknya satu tangan pegang stereng, satu tgn terkeluar kat tingkap pegang ~~duit~~ rokok.
Driver cinonet, dua2 tangan pegang stereng (at least dia tak merokok, cuma sedut dgn best je asap rokok tu).....

Dalam hati: Bagus punya bapak..kecik2 dah ajar anak ko merempit bawak kete ye! Dah la pegi pangku anak sambil bwk kete. Kalu eksiden???? lu sendiri pk la beb!!

Aiman pulak: Mamaaa...nak duduk atas mama bawak car jugak mcm bb tadi... babah dia bagi!
*Haaaaiiiiiippppppppp........ai babab u nanti!*

~budak yg suka merempit jugak bawak kete time kecik2 dulu~
** gambar budak kecik berposing ini diambil selepas kereta selamat parking yer**

Kesimpulan: Sapa2 yg penah buat mcm ni, udah2 ler...bahaya! U bring hazard to others as well. Sila sayangi nyawa anda, keluarga anda dan nyawa org di sekeliling anda! Nanti nak citer pasal car seat pulak....

Dah Isnin balik??

2011-03-07T15:24:00.005+11:00

Sudah pun minggu ke dua bulan Mac.
Cepat sungguh masa berlalu.
Produktifkah hari minggu saya?
Jawapannya: Agak produktif!
Sebab berjaya mencuci toilet dgn dibantu oleh Aiman sambil terbongkok2 gaya bibik.
Kemudian basuh cadar, basuh baju, sidai baju, sidai cadar, lipat baju, lipat cadar..
basuh baju lagi...lipat baju lagi (tatau berapa round)
Hmm...nesting instinct sudah bermula!

Incik suami juga sgt baik hati turut mengvakum serta mengemop lantai, membersihkan taman yg sekangkang kera itu, kemudian beralih kerjaya menjadi Chef!
Kesian dia, tapi cooking kan his passion! And I fully support his passion! ;D
Terima kaseyyyy!!!!

~yeay... frangipani sudah berbunga!!~

~pokok herba east meets west~

Smlm masa tgh mengemas, tetiba terdengar suara apek yg beli old news paper tu lah..
Dulu2 rasanya dia pasang kaset yg berbunyi:
'beli surat khabar lama... beli bateri lama...old news paper.. ching chong ching chong'

Tapi sekarang list barangan dah bertambah:
'Beli surat khabar lama, beli bateri lama, beli tilam lama, beli komputer lama, beli besi lama....beli botol lama'

Sudah berkembang maju apek itu.....
At least dia rajin round2 keliling taman nak cari customer beli besi buruk, paper lama etc.
Tapi ada pulak org yg pendek akal..
Amik jalan mudah
Pergi pow besi yg tutup longkang/lubang kat tgh2 jalan.

Masuk ni dah tak terkira berapa byk besi kat tengah jln yg kena curi.
Yang bahayanya sebab lubang yg ternganga tu besar!
Kalau ada budak kecik berjalan mlm2 tak nampak lubang tu, sure blh patah kaki!

Ada tu yg maybe nak bagi warning ada lubang besar kat situ.
Tapi diletaknya kayu panjang.
Kalau org tak perasan esp yg bawak motor ke, pastu kayu tu jadi tersenget ke..
Blh melayang nyawa tertusuk ~~duri sembilu luka~~ badan
Tak ke haru...

Kepada pencilok2 di sana...
Insaflah
Tak baik curi2 barang yg bukan hak kita
Nanti kat 'sana' kelak kena soal siasat...

Serupa jugak dgn org2 yg gegeh kutip beras ngan syiling yg bertaburan baru2 ini..
Kalau niat di hati kutip sebab nak tolong, tak pe
Tapi kalu masuk poket sendiri...masuk mulut sindiri..jadi darah daging maaa...
Ish ish ishh...*geleng kepala*

***tetiba rasa mcm nak ~~buat~~ makan ini

Maaf..saya tak berminat

2011-03-04T14:44:00.003+11:00

Happy Friday peepsss...
Tadi baru je melayan org buat promo Ast*o kat tepon.
Sorry la dik....ahkak tak berminat la promosi2 dalam tepon ni.
Tapi sebab u beriya dan bersemangat sangat nak promo, so ahkak layan jer ler walopun awal2 lagi ahkak dah sound, i dont want to waste ur time ye!
Siap suh amek no tepon dia in case later2 berminat nak subscribe to that particular promotion.

Tu pasal promo Ast*o.
Belum lagi part org tepon nak promote kredit kad.
Malas betul nak layan!

Ada sekali tu promotion dari M*yba**
Minah ni dok pot pet pot pet apa ntah
Rasanya dah cakap NO, not interested
Alih2.. sebulan lepas tu sampai kredit kad kat umah
Aiikk..bila masa pulak saya mintak?
Tak pernah guna pun tapi sebab atas dasar undang2 gomen, terpaksa jugak saya terbayar yg RM50 fees tu...(tu la asyik bertangguh nak cancel!)

Apa2 pun last month dah selamat saya kensel itu kad.
Now ada satu je duit plastik.
Tu pun gegeh nak bayar hutang.
Bila ntah nak settle...pastu baru buleh duduk diam2!

Dulu2 masa kat oz, time pakai landline mmg byk betul telemarketers yg telefon buat promotion la, buat survey la.
Survey tu blh terima lagi, sbb kdg2 dia bg imbuhan ie. voucher
tapi telemarketers yg call nk buat promotion ie. suh tukar telephone provider la, promo holiday la very mengjengkelkan!
Dah la yg tepon tu ckp slang sepesen je species yg goyang2 kepala (agaknya call dari India kot)
Pening nak paham apa yg dia cakap.

source: google image from here

Ada sekali tu, telemarketer ni tepon dan buat promotion pasal holiday package ke haper ntah.
Saya awal2 dah ckp 'Sorry but I'm not interested!'
Pastu dgn suara tak puas hati dia, boleh pulak dia tanya 'why are u not interested? u havent heard about the promotion yet!'

Pastu saya jawab 'I know but whtever it is that u want to promote, I am not interested, thank you' (rasa mcm dah abis baik dah ckp kat dia)
And then dia fire balik dgn nada high tone kata tak bagi can dia explain!
hek eleh..mamat ni!!
Malas nak layan saya terus letak tepon...
A few minutes after that, telemarketer pompuan pulak yg kol... nk ckp pasal benda yg sama!
huihhhh beta hangen sungguh!!

Kadang2 tu, saje je kalau terjawab panggilan telemarketers ni...
terus2 buat suara budak kecik lentok2
hahahaha
'hello?? who is this... mommy's not here. bye'
Tak pun terus ckp "haaaa....what you talk2? Me no speak engrish!!"
Keh3x....

Lunch kat Jungle

2011-02-28T16:50:00.003+11:00

Hari ini hari Isnin.
Hari ini sangat panas.
Hari ini hari Isnin yg sangat panas.... ;D

Bila time lunch, perut pun dah berkeroncong.
Sms incik suami: "lpr"
incik suami membalas: "jom gi mkn"

Soalan lazim: "nak makan apa? kat mana?"
Susah oooo soalan tu walaupun bunyi sangat senang..

Last2 incik suami ajak try mkn kat food court baru kat Jln Kuantan-Sg Lembing (eh betul ke?)
Dekat je pun dari opis.
Food court yg bakal mengadap KMC nanti.
Nama: Jungle Food Court (kalau tak silap)

Memang luas kawasan food court ni..
Ada 10 lot kedai semuanya (tapi tak semua buka lagi).
Customer pun tak ramai, maybe promotion tak hebat sgt.
Hajat di hati nak try nasik ayam..
round punya round...
gi try kat lot no. 10
ada nasik campur..nasik ayam special pun ada
Tapi bila tanya: "nasik ayam tak siap lagi. tengah dok buat"

ok takde rezeki... bergerak ke gerai lain pulak...
Ke lot no.5: Chef Ebab Corner (CEC)
Ada mee rebus Johor, mee goreng mamak, mee celup etc etc.

So saya order mee goreng mamak.
Incik suami order Nasi sup CEC (nasi putih + sup tulang + telur masin + sambal)
Tapi: "Mintak maaf la, tulang takde..tak sempat nak beli"

hemmm... ok
next dia order mee rebus Johor
Tapi: "oo..yg tu pun takde, tak siap lagi"

Aiseh...semua tak de tak siap bagai ni...

Last2 dia order mee celup
Nasib baik ada...

~pandangan sipi org yg keciwa bila ordernya asik2 takde..hehehe~

Nak order air kalu, ada satu kiosk utk minuman sahaja, cater utk semua customer.
All in all, voleh la. Not too bad masakan dia. Tekak saya boleh terima :)
Lain2 gerai ada yg jual western food, char kuey teow, masakan panas, murtabak, masakan Sarawak.

~Mee Celup -RM 4.90~

~Mee Goreng Mamak- RM4.00

Ada lagi a few gerai yg still under construction. Menurut incik suami, ada satu bahagian tu utk cater non halal food kot.

Maybe in years to come akan ramai customer yg datang, sebab area kat situ masih baru. Banyak bangunan kerajaan tgh dok naik..nanti ada hospital pulak. So hopefully food court ni akan bertambah maju lah yer.

Cukup bulan

2011-02-25T15:03:00.005+11:00

Aiikk....dah Jumaat dah... how the week flies.
Awat hangat sgt dlm bilik ni tatau... padahal a/c dah set 10C, takde kesan apa pun..
Bukak tingkap pun angin tarak.. tp dengar mcm deruan ombak je kat luar tu...mana datang??
************

Lately dalam hati ada risau dan takut..
why? sebab EDD dah dekat maa...
Skrg ni nak berjalan pun susah, dua tiga org dah komen "eh perut nmpk dah turun"
ye ke? tak lama dah la tuuu huhuhuhu
Hopefully semuanya selamat, dan cepat :)
Preparation wise, so far cukup kot... cuma nak cari kain batik..mana pigi daaaa sehelai pun tarak!
ish ish..silap haribulan terpaksa cilok kain pelikat tok laki i, voleh??

Aiman pulak lately makin cengeng...
makin dekat nk terberanak makin manja kemain
mmg mcm tu ke kalau nak dpt adik?
Rasa2 dulu masa kecik2 time ai nak dpt adik, ai rilek je...
Siap dulu dia dipaksa jadi mangsa ujikaji mekap2, kaler2 kuku lagi!
Nasib baik skrg dah membesar menjadi jantan sejati gittew...awwwww

~Muka budak yg tersenyum riang pekena durian yg mak aiihhh kemain mahal harganya!~

Skrg ni babahnya aiman tgh sakit mata since last monday...sgt excited mendpt MC after so many years..hehehehe
so far takde la sign sakit mata tu nak berjangkit kat org lain dlm umah.. (hopefully tak akan spread lah)
Tapi tatau la kot ayam2 ternakan babah aiman, si bobby and lily tu kena jangkit ke tak.. hahahahaha....lain mcm je dok berkokok these few days.. are they in some sort of pain/illnesses?
ke nak bertelur dah lily tu???

And Alhamdulillah Aiman has already recuperated from his URTI.
Cuma mama dia pulak dah start batuk keh keh..
Sampai Aiman pun ckp, "mama 'tercekik' dari Aiman ke?"
"Ye, mama tercekik dari Aiman la ni..kesian mama"
*tercekik= terjangkit* ;D
Malam2 nak tido pun susah, tp babah dia selamat dah laa berlayar dgn bunyi enjin lori dia tuh!
Jeles ai (part berlayar je laa)

Anyways, I quote a short conversation btw Babah and Aiman the other day while having breakfast at kedai mamak:

Babah: Aiman, do you want my drink (teh tarik)? Ada milk.
Aiman :Yang ni takde milk (pointing to teh O), yang tu laaagi takde milk (air kosong)
Babah: Ye la, this is plain water
Aiman : Ooo... Tu air kapal terbang!!

...ngeee... ;D

*Happy Weekend to all*

Satu hari di sebuah kenduri kahwin di Kemamang...
Time ni nak balik dah selepas perut kenyang sbb nasik kenduri dia sodapppp.. i like!
Tgh berdiri terpacak sambil menyekodeng nenek WMA berckp jerman dgn org2 di situ, tetiba ada suara menegur:

Makcik kenduri: Napok muda ni... berapa umor?

Org yg nmpk muda ittew: Hah? (buat2 terkejut lak)...cuba teka

Makcik kenduri: Dalang 20-ang rase. tapi kalu kata budok skoloh saboh lg nih... (i tulong translate: saboh = padan)

Org yg nmpk muda ittew: Hahahaha...20-ang? Dok laahh... 30-ang doh!

Makcik kenduri: Napok muda lah... macang budok tingkatang enang!!

Nenek WMA menyelit: huiihhhh...pah ni ada la org koyak seluaaarrrr (hahahaha...tok mama jeles!!!)

Kakak goreng pisang: Pisang tak goreng lagi la adik, baru bukak..

Adik: ye ke? tak pe lah (sambil masuk balik dlm kete kehampaan)

>>>Dah tu je....

Pasembor....(eh tetiba je)

2011-02-10T15:53:00.005+11:00

Ringkasan cerita rojak...

1. WMA started bed wetting..minggu ni je everyday... why??? ada stressor kah kat school? sebab beginning this week jugak he refused to go to school twice.. melalak meraung peluk kaki tak nak masuk kelas. Syahdu giler...huhuhu. Sebelum ni OK je tak de masalah. Confused maknya... why my son why???

2. Sakit belakang...sakit belakang... dan sakit belakang... (cerita apa nih???)

3. Kenapa gov included a 6% GST dlm bill AST*O????? Sangat tak patut!!!!

4. Paip kat tangki air bocor, patut la asyik dok dengar bunyi air menitik kat bumbung rumah (pastu terbayang citer Dark Water...huhuhu)
Dan patutlah bil air bulan lepas ada sikit over the hill.... $$ bakal mengalir lagi.... :( ke encik suami boleh betulkan kebocoran ittew dgn minimal cost? bukankah dia serba boleh (kipas2...) ngeeeeee ;D

5. Nak kena basuh cadar dgn segala pillow case kerana perkara no.1 di atas. Tilam? spray Febreeze je lah!

6. Scan bb ok, cord is no more covering the os...the head has turned back to cephalic presentation tapi belum engaged lagi. Tapi dok asyik persistent leucocyte la pulak... peh tu anemic..patut la cepat letih skrg ni. Nak kena rest, goyang2 kaki.. tak leh masak sebab nnti kesian kat badan, penat berdiri (muahahahahahaha...alasan!!!)

~budak yg gegeh berboxing mlm2~

7. Rasa nak makan mempelam......

8. Terasa nak baking2 tapi at the same time malas..lalalalalala. ceh, lupa pulak takde oven!

sekiannn.....

.::T.H.I.N.K::.

2011-01-26T14:00:00.009+11:00

Perghhh...hari2 hujan minggu ni...
Last week hari2 panas...
Sedap ooooo kalu buleh tarik selimut, time sejuk2 ni..zzzzzzzz

******
Tetiba sendu kejap...teringat zaman dulu2...masa keje kat hospital
Ada sorang patient ni, kena admitted sebab ada abdominal mass.
Muda dan sweet sgt orangnya...cakap pun lembut je.
Cikgu sekolah rendah, anak baru sorang, masa tu kalau tak silap anak lelaki dia baru nak masuk 2 tahun kot.
So buat la thorough investigations bla bla bla...

Tup-tup, dapat tahu dia ada ovarian cancer (sedihnya, dah stage 3 kalu tak silap)
So bermula lah treatmentnya...

Disebabkan saya jaga ward gynae time tu, mmg saya yg incharge utk patient ni..
seronok borak dgn dia... walopun dia sedih, tapi dia redha and masih menaruh harapan utk pulih sepenuhnya sebab anak dia masih perlukan ibunya.

Dia pun ada bercerita, makcik2 kat kampung dia suruh try rawatan kampung, try makan ubat itu ini, jumpa tok bomoh itu ini dan yg sewaktu dgnnya, sebab depa kata cikgu ni kena buatan orang --> busung ke amende ntah la... haishhh!!
Tapi patient saya ni tak amik pusing, dia kata dia percaya dgn rawatan modern.

After some time, saya bertukar ke department lain pulak.
Jadi saya tak sempat nak follow up dgn kes cikgu ni..

Tapi satu hari saya dapat tahu, dalam perjalanan dia ke hospital bersama2 dgn suami + anak (naik motor), mereka kemalangan :(
Dan yg paling sedih, suaminya meninggal dunia....
Anaknya pulak patah tangan...ibunya hanya cedera ringan..
Ya Allah, beratnya dugaan dia....Tak terbayang perasaan saya kalau saya di tempatnya :(

Teringat saya pada arwah suaminya...
Senyap tetapi sanggup amik cuti semata2 nak temankan isterinya..
Kalau azan berkumandang, mesti nampak dia bersiap2 nak ke surau berdekatan...
Kadang2 kalau tgk isterinya lemah sangat sebab muntah2 etc, arwah suaminya solat di tepi katil..
Isterinya pun, selagi terdaya, tak pernah pulak saya tgk dia tak solat.. tu dgn drip berselirat kiri kanan tuh...

Tgk patient yg lain, walau pun nmpk lebih sihat, boleh gerak ke sana sini, boleh gelak kuat2., dan boleh pulak makan sampai licin tray....buat derk je tak solat.

Apa agaknya kesudahan nasib patient saya tu...
Harapan saya semoga Allah memanjangkan usianya...walaupun saya tahu kanser ovari ni biasanya has no happy ending....
Semoga Allah memelihara anak lelakinya dan mencucuri rahmat ke atas arwah suaminya..
~Amiiinnn.....~

~My two heroes whom I love most mmuahh~

**********

Dah alang2 tersentuh bab rawatan alternatif ni, saya kdg2 pelik mcmana orang esp. org Melayu ni senang sangat nak percaya kat benda2 ni. Yang menipu pun org Melayu jugak. Shabash!!!

Contohnya, makan ubat/guna certain alat ni boleh merawat sakit darah tinggi, kencing manis, asma, sakit buah pinggang, blah blah blah...
Pakai gelang ni, boleh cuci darah...
Pakai batu ni, badan rasa kuat dan sihat..kalah superman! hehehe
errkkk apa lagi ek?

Sedih but that's the reality
kdg2 tu ada patient yang mempunyai masalah kencing manis + buah pinggang yg admitted ke ward dlm keadaan yg tenat.
Bila check2, korek2 rupanya default treatment, tak amik ubat, tak pergi dialisis..
why???
sebab ada hamba Allah ni promote ubat alternatif sekali dgn mesin ajaib yg boleh membantu mencuci darah dan mengHILANGkan penyakit kencing manisnya. Pastu dia suh stop amek ubat hospital...dan prescribe benda lain. So patient pun dgn semangat berkobar2 sanggup berbelanja lebih dan folo treatment plan yg diberi. Last2 wht hepeng?? masuk ICU...

Ok first of all, senang cakap... kalu dah diagnosed dgn kencing manis, setakat pagi ni la...tak de lagi ubat yg boleh cure 100%...yg ada cuma utk control the sugar level dalam darah supaya nanti takkan ada komplikasi yg lebih teruk pada organ2 yg lain.

Kalau ada ubat yg boleh pulihkan terus penyakit2 kronik yg fofular spt darah tinggi ke, kencing manis ni ke... alhamdulillah..senang sket keje doktor, nurse, pharmacist, dietician dan semua org lah! Tak ke???

~googled pic fr sarah-palin-2012.blogspot.com~

Masalahnya skrg, ramai suka amek jalan mudah...
Patient education masih di tahap rendah
tak salah nak try cari alternatif lain (kerana sesungguhnya semua benda ada penawarnya kecuali mati)
Tapi berpada2 lah...
Dan silalah gunakan otak yg dikurniakan Allah utk berfikir..
Kalau ada baca/ dipromote benda2 mcm 'ala2 ishh boleh percaya ke ni?'... maka sila lah buat research dulu... google mana yg patut.
Jangan senang tertipu...
Dan jangan suka menipu.... (sila click sini)
tak baik tawwww!!!!

p/s: kalu ada yg tersentap, mintak maap ye... :)

School part II

2011-01-25T17:18:00.003+11:00

Minggu ni dah masuk minggu ke-3 Aiman kat school baru.
So far Alhamdulillah, tak la seliat mcm nak htr ke school lama dulu.
Maybe sebab dia tahu school dia yg sekarang ni dlm kawasan yg sama mama and babah dia work.
Mula-mula tu ingatkan just nak survey2 je dulu school baru ni, nk register for baby nanti.
Tup2 skali nmpk mcm menarik jer, 2nd day operated terus htr Aiman ke situ. Hahaha...

First time tunjuk kat Aiman pun, he was excited dgn school baru ni.
Walaupun ada a few things yg still under construction, tp cikgu2 pun dah ramai and tgk syllabus/activities for a 4 y.o kid pun mcm acceptable.
Dari office, nursing room, classroom, kitchen, eating area, toilet (kiuuutt giler!!) sampai ke bilik teacher berjaya diskodeng. keh3x

Tapi this time Aiman tak dapat uniform (except for the sport attire) sebab baru 4 y.o.

Sport attire baru saya..peace!!

Pepagi letih jugak la tunggu budak kecik ni pilih baju nak pakai apa gi school.
Semalam pakai baju askar.

Peace no war bebeh!

Hari ni nak pakai baju Tigger (mana muat sayang ooi, tu baju masa awak umur setahun!)
Baju Tigger idaman hati Aiman

Last2 dia pilih nak pakai shirt yg ada gambar racing car.
Aiseh...esok baju apa pulak budak kecik ni nak pakai????

So fees yg dah selamat dibayar kat sekolah lama tu apa jadi?
Err..burn je la kot... kira sedekah la ye babah..huhuhu

Aiman's version of orang lidi yang ada tummy hahaha

Merapu di kala hujan

2011-01-06T18:00:00.004+11:00

Gloomy weather outside...
As gloomy as the 'weather' inside...(hahaha..padahal baru melantak sebungkus famous amos!)
hujan je hari2...where is mr sunshine? (dah berhari2 baju + bantal busuk aiman tersadai kat luar, tak kering2 lagi)
dok dlm bilik pun rasa mcm nk jadi frozen beef
sejuk....(off the a/c - done)
Rasa nak zzzzzzzzz.......bantal tak de.

Bila nok buleh ke laut nih??

***************
This week aiman has been a good boy
He even wanted to be the first to arrive at his school yesterday (sebab Wednesday is his sports day) and he didnt bother to hv breakfast as usual (sebab nk breakfast kat school katanya)
So eager to wear his new sports attire and not so new pair of shoes, his face showed a little disappointment when he saw some of his friends had already arrived.
Tak pe la Aiman, tak jadi no.1 to arrive pun, number lain pun dpt point jugak (ayat bila main game dgn dia... hehehehe)
But i reckon the kids only managed to play for a short period of time because it started to rain after that.

******
Back at home last nite, Aiman was telling me Tasha (his friend) brought yo yo to school but refused to give him a chance to try it out
"kesian kat aiman, tasha tak bagi aiman play," he said sambil buat muka seposen.
Alahai kesian la pulak kat budak tecik ni.... nanti mama cari yo yo satu kat Aiman ok!!

*****
In search for a yo yo for budak tecik Aiman.
Found a few in Carrefour but omg...the price ranges from rm15 - rm40!!
Kensel mak! apa benda punya yo yo je pun kemain mahalnya..
Makan 2 org kat Black Canyon pun konyang!!
Nanti kita gi cari kat kedai lain hokey!

*****
Sekian, enough babbling for today

School

2011-01-04T14:43:00.003+11:00

4/1/11

Dah pun day 4 of 2011..how time really flies.
Rata-rata ramai dok post status kat fb on their kid's first day at school
Ramai yang teruja....comel je tgk gambar budak2 tecik ni pakai uniform tadika..
Of course every parents wants the best for their children.
Skrg ni pun bersepah kindy to cater budak2 from the age of 4-6
Ada Smart Reader la, Montessori la..apa benda Caliph la...
But of course, ramai jugak yg merungut fees utk hantar anak ke kindy ni mak aaihhh mahal giler!
Tapi sebab nak yg terrrrrbaik utk anak, ramai parents yg tutup sebelah mata bayar terketar2 every month.. hehehehe

As for Aiman, he'll only turn 4 bulan Mei nanti, and this year marks the 2nd year Aiman @ Tadika Bistari Ilmu.
Ala, tadika dekat ngan umah je pun, kuar pagar, panjangkan leher sket, nmpk la tadika dia.
Mula2 dulu ingatkan nak hantar ke nursery je dulu sebab dia pun baru 3 tahun. Tapi ada jugak dok survey2 tadika yg sesuai...
Ada satu kindy ni, HM dia Chinese lady, siap explain tadika dia adapt chinese school punya system, ada homework la exam la..and then ada extra co-curricular xtvt ie. swimming lesson, computer class, taek wan do blah blah blah..
I was like maaaak aiihhh... padatnya jadual.. ni belum masuk Std 1 lagi (dengar2 citer dah ada entrance exam skrg, next ada Band2 apa mende ntah..)

Pastu went to this Montessori nearby..mmg menarik.. uniform pun kiuuuuut je. I loike. Tapi at that time they cannot accept Aiman because he was not 4 yrs old yet. So tak pe lah, cari kindy lain.

Last2 hantar kindy dekat ngan umah ni...
So far Alhamdulillah..ok je.
Dia dah boleh hafal surah2 pendek...basic doa etc
Cuma masa mula2 dulu standard la ada adegan meraung2 tanak gi school
In fact sampai skrg pun kalau angin kus2 dia dtg, haihhh blh bertukar jadi aimanzilla!!

Yang kelakar every morning bila dia bgn tido, siap tanya lagi berapa hari Aiman kena gi school?
And then bila dia nak cuti?
kalau boleh, dia nak cuti 100 days... hahahahaha over hokay!!
Gi school nak 2-3 days je, tapi cuti nak lama2... voleh?

Malam2 kena make sure by 10pm dah tido, kalau tak bgn pagi esok mesti dia dok membebel "Aiman sleepy...."
And then before going to school, mesti nak kena breakfast kat kedai dulu
(yang ni mama dia suka sebab tak yah prepare breakfast..yahoooo)

Bila nak hantar gi school, dia dah warning "Aiman tak nak sleep kat school"
Apa2 je lah aiman, asalkan tak kacau orang.

Bila dah petang dlm pukul 5++ tu, time to fetch him.
Nanti ada la dialog "kenapa mama amik aiman lambat? Tgk Aiman dah balik number 4 dah.... Aiman nak balik number 1"
Hehehehehehehehhehe.....

Muka budak tecik yg masam kena paksa gi school tanpa kerelaannya..hik hik hik
(early 2010)

So semalam since it was the 1st day of schooling in the year 2011, of course there will be some new students coming in.
Dalam kereta lepas amik aiman, he was telling me about this one new kid in the kindy:

Aiman : Tadi ada budak baru kat school Aiman

Me : Dia cry tak? Apa nama dia?

Aiman : Aiman tak tanya nama dia. tapi dia asyik cryyyyy ajer.... Aiman dah
kata jangan cry tapi dia cry jugak

Me : Ala dia baru masuk school, takut2 lagi. Kawan aiman tu nak mama dia
kot. Mcm Aiman dulu2

Aiman : A'ah.. dulu Aiman pun cry jugak, tapi kejap aje. skrg kan aiman dah
good boy. tapi kdg2 aiman nak cry jugak

Me : Tak mau la cry..kan aiman dah besar. nnti muka tak hensem kalau cry

Aiman : Eh teacher kata aiman hensem laaaaa. mcm org Australia!!

Wakakakakakakakaka........perasan!!!!

Nyuummmm

2010-12-16T13:41:00.005+11:00

Tetiba saya rasa mcm nak mkn char kuey teow.
Yang letak togeh baaaaanyak-banyak...
dengan kerang baaaaanyak-banyak...
dengan cili jeruk (tak leh la banyak2, takut nnti sakit perut)
Udang tak banyak pun tak pe..asalkan dicompensate oleh kerang yg baaaanyak tadi
Pastu banjir2 sikit..
Perghhhh... teringat char kuey teow kat sri gombak...

Google gambar char kuey teow orang je la dulu

Ohhhh...shedapnya...

Dah 10 Muharram dahhh...

emmphh...alahai -Part II

2010-12-14T17:27:00.005+11:00

Ni sambungan from the previous entry...

IIa) Briefing for English test
According to the timetable that was given to us, the 9am briefing was supposed to be held at the same place where the registration took place. Maka bgn pagi tu terhegeh2 pujuk Aiman segala bagai, tok abah pun janji nk bwk gi playground kt ttwangsa.
Arrived at around 8.40am. There were a few students dah tercongok menunggu kat entrance area. Tunggu punya tunggu...almost 9am dah tapi takde gaya nk start briefing pun, pintu still tertutup....intai2 belah dalam, mcm deserted je takdak sapa.
Orang makin ramai dok kerumun kat depan entrance, hari pun makin panas.
Tick tock tick tok...dah 9.30am. Aik...briefing kensel ke?
Tetiba ada hamba Allah ni bgtau briefing buat kat tempat lain.
Hokeyyyy....so ikut je la crowd bergerak ke destinasi yg tak diketahui. Sampai kat satu area tu, semua org tercengang2 sebab tak tahu nak ke mana, masing2 muka confused. Ada yg dah marah2 (ke mmg tok arab ni ckp high pitch??). Lepas tu crowd ni bergerak lagi.. ai folo je laaaa.

Jalan turun naik tangga, sampai la kat auditorium ni. Tgk2 briefing dah start!! What the............
Yang dok bercakap atas stage tu syok je scroll powerpoint dia, as if tak perasan segerombolan manusia baru masuk hall. padahal at that moment rasanya audience yg sedia ada dlm auditorium tu maybe dlm <20% je. Lagi 80% ni baru terhegeh2 masuk and cari seat. By the time dapat seat, he was already showing his 2nd last slides.
So banyak la info yg we all missed out, tu yg time Q&A ramai student dok bertanya. Tapi boleh pulak presenter tu kata, "I thought I've already explained and showed it in my slides"
Helllooooo brother, didnt u notice that many of us had JUST arrived and MISSED most of ur slides???
Haaiishhhhhhh....and why in the very first place, no one from 'that' centre had the slightest courtesy to inform us that the venue has been changed?

IIb) Exam day
As usual la, tulis situ 9am, tp 9 am still tak bukak2 lg pintu masuk.
Bila main entrance dah bukak, kena lined up panjang sebab nak kena check ID satu2, studentnya ramai, pintu yg bukak cuma dua. So mmg lambat la prosesnya.
Bila dah masuk exam hall, kedengaran suara sumbang org yg in charge tu terjerit2 suh masuk cepat sebab dah lambat (excuse me, sapa suh hang bukak pintu at 9.10 am, walopun exam sepatutnya start at 9?).
Bila semua dah duduk, bermula la sessi explanation and instruction segala bagai..
Tapi yang sedihnya, kenapa encik nak kena terjerit2 as if yg amek exam ni budak sekolah? Padahal ramai je student2 veteran and international student. Agak kurang respect di situ...sampai ada sorang student ni mengomel sorang2, "omg, must he shout like that?". Tahu le u own the mic.....

Bila exam dah start, ada sorang student ni angkat tangan. So one lady invigilator ni pun pegi la kat mamat tu and it went like this:

Lady: yes, any problem?
Mamat macho: I dont have any pen or pencil
Lady: hah??? U dont have any? why? jhbfjbvksjhfkdlayesiruy8w9843 (mumbling tatau haper)
Mamat macho: *senyum je*

Hahahahaha.....mcmana ni brother, dtg exam bawak henpon je. henpon buleh kuar dakwat eh?

After a long 3 hrs the test ended, mcm biasa harus la encik itu terjerit2 marah sapa yg bgn. dah tu hang bg arahan tak clear hokey! Malas nk layan.....

ok tu je nk citer. kesimpulan, i dah passed pun. hehehehehe

emmphh....alahai! -Part 1

2010-12-06T13:29:00.009+11:00

Last week I was in KL, sebab nak settle hal2 registration dgn salah sebuah IPT tu lah... What more can I say other than..."Alahaiiiii... sigh"
Why? Sebabnya:

a) Booklet/Guideline
Masa mula2 received the offer letter, terkejut gak le tgk kat sampul surat tu depa tulis ngan tangan je utk nama dan alamat, dah le hand writing tu ada sedikit sakit mata bila dilihat but tak pe, fine! asalkan encik posmen buleh baca dan tak salah hantar ke alamat lain.

Bukak2 je envelope tu, mak aihh... guideline jenis fotostat je bagi??? Tak tau la kot sebab ai ni local PG student, so bg booklet yg gitu2 je..tapi utk international student kot la depa bagi yg proper2 kan... tapi sedih, fotostat pun jenis yg kelabu asap!!
And one more thing, info kat dlm booklet tu pun byk yg tak jelas, sekelabu asap seperti printing quality-nya...

>>> My 2 cents opinion: Kot ye pun takde budget nak buat booklet yg lawa2, tapi at least please make an effort to produce a simple yet berkualiti punya booklet. Ni mcm haper je, tgk for the first time pun dah takde perasaan seronok..haishhhhh

b) Contact person
Because there were a few issues yg tak berapa jelas kat dlm booklet tu, maka terpaksalah saya gigih menelefon bahagian PG study ni.
However, ntah berapa byk kali ai cuba tepon guna ext number yg tertera di muka depan booklet tu, hareeemmm tak penah nak dpt ok!
So ai cuba call operator suh sambung ke bhgian berkenaan...it was either unanswered or engaged. Banyaaaaaaak kali ai try sampai operator tu pun ckp,
"huh nak sambung ke C*S ye, selalu pun takde sapa angkat.. takpe la, kita cuba je la ye" (operator pun mcm dah give up je)

Ada sekali tu, ai got thru, tapi bila lepas tanya2, staff yg menjawab tu kata dia tak tahu, nnti dia sambung ke org yg berkenaan..pehtu terus engaged!!
dah la susah nak dapat, bila dah dapat, kena redirect pastu terus engaged. bila call balik takde sapa lak yg angkat.. magic sungguh!!
Last2 I asked my bf to try call from his office.....dapat.
Tapi bila dgr dia citer gaya staff yg menjawab tu buleh sakit hati ye! Jenis yg perli2 pastu menjawab! Hambooiii.....kalu ai la, siap dah kena fire mamat tuh!

>>> Tolong la wahai warga C*S, tgk2 sket anak buah yg menjawab telefon tu.. adakah sebab yg telefon tu org local, maka acuh tak acuh je gaya menjawab. Sangat tak berhemah.. Dah la susah nak get through..hotline sgt ker???

c) Registration day
Arrived at 10am....finished by 3pm. Penatnya....
Kesimpulan- Tak teratur kekdahnya... huhuhuhuhu

Scene 1: Payment of fees
It was stated in the offer letter that all payments must be made BEFORE the enrolment date. However kat guideline pulak (and I quote: Please read the guidelines carefully and follow the instructions given) kata payments must be made ON the day of registration.
Huh.. 2 statements yg contradict each other. So I decided to pay ON the day of registration je la. Tapi bila sampai kat sana punya la ramai org kat dalam bank, nak kena tunggu sampai no.83 baru la sampai my turn. Dah le tak leh nak duduk lama dalam bank tu, sebab too crowded..plus ada bau ketiak mashem daaa...tak tahan!
Last2 gi bank kat luar je...Alhamdulillah kejaaaaap je dah settle!

Scene 2: Sesi pengesahan sijil2
It took almost 15 mins to certify the original copy of my certs. They've got the copies of those cert, cuma tinggal nak tgk yg ori, copkan dan sign. Total cert tak byk pun, ada dlm 5-6 copies je. Tapi yg jadi slow sebab the person yg jaga kaunter no. 9 tu baru sampai (agaknya tukar shift kot). So time tu la baru dia tanya kat staff pompuan kat belakang tu what he was supposed to do. So kena la explain satu2 nak kena buat apa... Pelik jugak, takde dibuat briefing ke beforehand?
Bila dah abis cop2 tu, I asked la where to next sebab tak de direction apa semua. Org tu pun blur2 tak tahu.. hehe..kelakar pulak. kesian pun ada.

Scene 3: kat meja berkaitan financial declaration..fees.senang citer, pasal duit lah
Finance staff: U staff kita ke?
Staff kita (saya la tuh): A'ah kenapa?
Finance staff: eh patutnya kalau tak silap I, u boleh dpt staff discount. U tak tgk kat website ke?
Staff kita: website tak ber-update (harap maklum)
Finance staff: bhgian research tak inform u?
Staff kita: Tak penah dia mentioned apa2 pun sebelum ni
Finance staff: Tak pe, u try ty bhgian Finance nanti...
Staff kita: ok terima kasih
>>> Huk oloh..... boleh dpt discount ke????

Scene 4: Return of checklist
At the end of the checklist, it was written in bold that the form should be returned to the C*S. So after I've completed the form, I followed the instruction lah. But not knowing where exactly to submit the form I asked one of the staff. So she said to submit it at the C*S office but then she continued saying that since it was already lunch time, the office is closed. Kena dtg balik at 2pm. Ok fine.. perut pun dah lapar.

Came back after 2pm. Walked to the so called office, but to my disappointment it was still closed. No staffs were seen. Pusing2 kejap then found another entrance but it was locked too. There was a notice on the door yg lebih kurang gini bunyinya:
"The C*S will be closed for the day as all staffs will be at the registration hall for the enrolment of new PG students"

So there I was, walking back to the main hall (sgt penat hokey...dah la membuyung!!). I went back to see the same staff and asked her:

Me: Sorry ye, tadi saya ada tanya kat mana nak submit checklist form ni. U kata kena htr ke office. Saya baru pergi sana tapi office tutup. So macamana?
That lady staff: memang la tutup sebab semua staff turun sini. Takde org pun kat sana (avoiding eye contact)
Me: Dah tu kenapa suruh saya pegi sana in the first place kalau dah tau tutup. Saya nak htr borang ni kpd siapa dan kat mana sebenarnya? (voice tone was a bit on the high side dah)
Lady staff: err...err...jap (muka confused2..pusing belakang tanya kawan dia). Eh borang checklist kalau dah siap kena htr mana hah?
Kawan lady staff: hah..ntah...aku pun tak tahu (muka blur jugak). Cuba ty kat kaunter information kat luar tu

So i went outside the hall. The so called 'kaunter information' was deserted...tak de sapa pun. Meja pun kosong. Last2 tanya kat staff pompuan mana ntah, dia pun blur jugak (apahal ni??). In the end nasib baik dia kata, takpe, bagi je kat dia nnti dia forwardkan
~e.n.d~
>>>> aiyooooo.......what is this la??? kenapa semuanya tak tahu? sgt geram!

And then masa hari tu jugak lah baru found out that students ada briefing and have to sit for an english test that same week (since my IELTS dah wayyy overdue, so tak valid dah ler). Terpaksa la beta tinggal di kl bersama2 anakanda tercinta sementara kekanda beta pulang ke Ktn.
Alangkah senang sket perancangan kalu pihak yg berkenaan sound awal2 student kena stay for briefing la, test la etc. Kalu student tu jenis dari Kelantan ke, Perlis ke...tak tahu menahu kena stay lagi di KL sebab ada program lepas registration ni, tak ke kesian kat mereka2 ni? nak kena cari accommodation pulak..
Dah la kat website pun tak mention apa2...
Nasib baik my family mmg di KL. Terpaksa la tok abah jadi babysitter Aiman.. hehehehe

- To be continued.....(part briefing and part exam day)- tak larat dah.....

p/s: Saya akan mengomel dan mengomen bila ada rasa tak puas hati terhadap kualiti perkhidmatan yang disediakan. I strongly believe that in order to get the work done, to get respect from others and if u are giving services to the public, you should have a proper working ethics.. Utk peringatan diri sendiri jugak. I am not perfect either but sometimes if you do not make changes to improve your working attitude ke, ur staffs, ur department, apa2 je la....you are forever will not gain any respect and forever tak maju. Quality is the best policy gittew....perghhhh!
I say this because I've experienced a whole lot different environment/situation when I was in Sydney. Friendly and professional.....Hati pun manyak senang :)

Kucing oh kucing

2010-11-12T14:44:00.004+11:00

I hv to admit that I am not an animal friendly type of person. Tgk dari jauh boleh lg, kalu dekat2 ke, nak pegang ke (depends on what type of animal jugak) no can do la bebeh. Contrary to my husband, who absolutely adores animal and also ahli pecinta alam...kira peminat flora dan fauna gitu.

Kat rumah skrg ni binatang ternakan dia (hahahha) adalah ikan laga sekor (sekor dah mati) dgn ayam katik, eh ke serama (huihh betapa tak amek kisahnya saya!). Nasib baik ayam dapat free, tp yg kesiannya ayam tu (Aiman bg nama Bobby) al duda, sebab tak sempat bawak balik kuantan, bini dia mati. COD was unknown..kematian mengejut. Tak rela i nak buat post mortem...

Awal2 dulu Bobby di bawa ke hulu ke hilir, diangkut balik Gombak la, balik Tepeng la.. kalu balik Gombak mmg sah2 tak de org heran sebab mmg semua bukan kaki binatang. Nasib baik kalu balik Tepeng ada jugak org yg layan Bobby hehehe.

Nak dijadikan cerita, sebab adegan angkut mengangkut ni sgt leceh (eleeh mcm la awak yg kena susun2 angkut Bobby pun hahaha), maka Babah Aiman pun bertekad utk membina rumah khas utk Bobby kesayangan.

Tatau berapa kali gi kedai hardware beli kayu kayan segala bagai, pung pang pung pang..ketung ketang ketung ketang... bunyi di petang hari lepas Babah Aiman balik keje, bertungkus lumus menyiapkan rumah Bobby sambil dibantu oleh Aiman tanpa disuruh. Akhirnya rumah Bobby pun siaaappp..tersergam indah, ala2 kondo 2 tingkat gittew.

Bobby in action

Hmmm...mcm agak serabut tgk rumput yg dah panjang dan landscape yg belum complete eceh ceh... Nak buat mcmana, yg tukang kebun nyer sorang tu je, dia la yg tanam pokok, susun pokok, korek sana korek sini, susun sana susun sini, budak tecik Aiman haruslah tolong jugak. Babah dia letak tanah, dia gi buang tanah...
Mama Aiman sekadar tgk dari jauh saje.. hahahaha.... sambil memberi arahan.

Tanah sekangkang kera kt belakang rumah tu pun i jeling2 je . Boleh kira dgn jari kot berapa kali je gi jenguk keluar dan buat apa2 yg patut. Nasib baik Babah Aiman ada, thank u babah for the daun kari, daun limau purut, pucuk ubi, serai, daun pandan... err apa lagi ek????

Hmm...apa kaitan citer2 di atas ni dgn tajuk entry?? sgt tak berkaitan.. hahaha.. ekceli nak story, baru2 ni kitorg upah org tarkan jalan depan umah ni, so takde dah la lalang2 menyemak kat area tong sampah tu. Nampak la kemas sket. Ingatkan dah takde tanah kat situ, diganti dgn tar, takde la kucing nak berak sesuka hati.. tetapi owh tidak..mcm makin byk pulak kucing2 ni melepas. Modus operandi walopun bukan kat rumput dlm kwsn umah, tapi dah bertukar di atas2 jalan DEPAN umah. Tgk kat depan rumah org lain tak de la pulak bahan kumuhan tu bersepah, walopun kat rumah org lain tu ada je lalang2 tanah2 sejemput yg kiranya lebih sesuai dijadikan tandas kucing. But nooooooo.... kat tengah2 depan umah kitorg jugak yg kucing pilih. Tiap2 pagi ada je sejemput kat situ, sejemput kat sini....

Kalu dah kering tu blh tahan lagi la, tp masalahnya skrg ni musim hujan ok.. jadi tak leh nk tgk rupa bentuk bahan kumuhan itu, loya tekak den!!!!
Kucing ooh kucing, please do ur no.2 elsewhere, kat depan rumah we ols dah takde tanah, mana blh nak kambus2 dah.. cuba gi berak kat tempat lain jauh2 sket.......terima kasih!

Bukti kucing2 liar melepas sesuka hati

Yeaahh...moh kita story2 about jodoh.. (again!)

Scenario 1: (continuation fr the previous entry)

Both parents suka
Third party lagi la suka
Satu pihak suka (why i do not know)
Satu pihak not so suka tp terpaksarela
Ahkak - no comment
Ring utk merisik - checked
Date utk merisik - checked
Dalam hati ada taman - hmmm.... hmm....zzzzzzzz.......kroohhhhhhhhh
*tak dapek den nak nolong dah aaihhh*

Scenario 2:

Both cintan cintun (obviously more fr the other side) - tangkap lelehhhh...restoren berputar alam menjadi saksi hahahahaha
That family - ok kot yada yada yada
This family - ding dong, houston, we've got a problem! One kaki is set to go, but the other kaki is errrr.....hypotonia?! unmovable gittew. guna superglue kot!
So the good to go kaki needs assistant in order for the other kaki to operate and go go go...
So who is the assistant?? - ahkakkkk jugak...(to *e**a, be nice to me bebeh..be verrrry verryy nice to me!)

So we shall follow Agent Oso kat Playhouse Disney:
Step 1: to meet and interrogate the suspect
Step 2: KIV makeover or boot camp
Step 3: to evaluate how Step 1 and 2 goes then, we take it from there... hehehehe

*aaaaaaahhhhhh.....what a predicament....*

Tak Berapa Best....

2010-10-29T18:41:00.003+11:00

Macamana ni..... masalah negara sungguh...
Susah betul bab jodoh ni (not me of course, saya dah kawen maaaaa-nasib baik!!). Hmmm.....lelaki yang baik adalah untuk perempuan yang baik, dan perempuan yang baik adalah untuk lelaki yang baik.....

Orang kata,
it's better to be with somebody who loves u.. walaupun kalau both lovey dovey tu, kira bonus lah.
tapi kalau sebelah pihak je yang suka, tambah pulak ada confounding factors yg beriya-iya nak satukan...tapi yg masalah problemnya tuan punya badan takde hati. mcmana??

Orang kata lagi,
cinta blh dipupuk lepas kawen...org zaman dulu-dulu pun, ada je kes time nikah baru i pandang u, u pandang i...first time ever!

Dan orang berkata lagi,
ikut la pilihan mak bapak, kompem restu dah dpt... kena redha...berkaaaat hidup...

tapi tu laaa.. susah jugak jadi ~~kakak~~ manusia ni... kena make sure apa yang kita cakap ni blh diterima pakai... most of the time we tend to satisfy and give pleasure to others, and often forget about our own feelings.....

Jadinya... to you-know-who.... my prayers are always with you. I can only give you guidance and options..but you have to decide on ur own. From what I can see, you can either say No-apologize-get on with ur life OR Yes-lets proceed-redha-and find ways to make it work.
and yes, people will talk, hearts will be broken and there will be consequences for the decision u make tapi yg penting DOA, TAWAKKAL dan PERCAYA kepada Allah....
What ever your final say is (sure hope it's a good one), i'm right behind you!

Nostalgia

2010-10-22T13:22:00.004+11:00

Ish ish ish...berhabuk..bersawang...punya lama tak hapdet blog ni. Kdg2 rasa nak tutup je, but then again rasa mcm sayang pulak. Mcm hidup segan, mati tak moh gittew...
Takpe la, will try to update for my own reading if time permits.

Hari ni dah Jumaat. Aiman paling happy sebab dah nak weekend. Pantang sungguh nak gi school, dok mengira berapa hari lg he has to go to school, and how many days dia cuti. Nak cuti banyak2... tak nak 2 days aje, boleh?
This morning masa htr babah to his office, tetiba je senyap..sedih..sebek mulut... bila babah dia tanya what's wrong, tak nak ckp...pujuk punya pujuk.. kata nak beli lolly before dropping him off to his tadika baru la ok sket. Berenti kat Petronas, bukan setakat lolly dia rembat, siap candy ngan jam Ben 10..aiyaaa! Nasib baik murah ajo..

Dalam kereta, tanya dia apsal sedih2 nak cry ni... then baru la dia ckp, "sebab Aiman sad, Aiman nak play with babah. Dah lama Aiman tak play with babah.."
Alahaiii.... sedih la pulak dengar.
Nak buat mcmana sayang, babah kan kena work... bukan mcm dulu dah...
sekarang ni pun weekend kdg2 burn, babah bz la etc...
Long weekend ni pun dah kena booked. Ada IEEP...nasib baik Aiman blh ikut.
Sabar ye sayang....nanti kita gi jalan2 ok?

************

Tetiba teringat zaman sekolah rendah... sangat happening!! Rindu... best!! Sebab join school choir yg sgt active melalak di sana sini... yg best bila every year (since Std 4- Std 6) we would participate dlm choir beramai2 sempena Hari Kanak-Kanak Sedunia kat Stadium Negara.. perrghh best best... dgn rehearsalnya, dgn baju lip lapnya...dgn mekapnya..dgn KFC freenya. Banyak jugak sekolah lain yg terpilih, mostly around KL.

Ni rasanya masa buat persembahan kat hotel, depan PM and other delegates...baju sgt 'anggun' sampai tak blh blah! hahaha

Teringat time latihan dgn Ms Khoo (music teacher). Dia suruh bawak cermin kecik sorang satu so that masa prektis nyanyi semua org kena tgk cermin and make sure buka mulut & nyanyi secukup rasa ooooohhhh aaaaaaahhhh aaaaahhhh..
hehehehehe...lalat masuk pun mesti tak sedar!!

Sbb sgt ler active choir kitorg ni, maka ada a few events yg dijemput khas ie masa Maulidur Rasul (siap kuar paper tu) and event OIC ke haper ntah..nyanyi depan Agong...and then Kempen Rumah ku Syurga ku lah..(masa ni first time masuk recording studio..rakam suara merdu we ols..hahaha...so during the real event tu, kitorg miming ajo!)..and few other events la..mostly kat hotel.
Hmmm....ada bakat menyanyi rupanya ai ni... hahahahaha!

Lets Santai....

2010-06-30T13:17:00.005+10:00

Gosh we are already halfway through 2010.. how time flies!!! Come July, will be a year older...wooottt...wooottt!!!

Spent last weekend lazying around, rearranging stuffs from the boxes (managed to empty quite a number of boxes yippie!!). Then on Sunday evening, headed to Pantai Sepat to enjoy the south china sea breeze.
Oh yes, what beautiful stretch of beaches we have. However, I was so sadden to see all the rubbish being dumped everywhere (or was it washed away from other part of the continent?? hmmmm.....).
Empty bottles, plastics, papers, err nappies???? slippers, tin cans etc etc etc... giving an extra little 'touch of soarness' to the sandy beaches. SIGH.... kenapa org Malaysia sukaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa buang sampah??????
**Oh how I miss the oz beaches.... spotless!!!!!!**

So anyway, before Aiman had the chance to get all wet, we went to have dinner at Santai.

Location: please refer to the website.

Although it was Sunday, the restaurant was quiet and there weren't many customers yet because we were there a wee bit early. Love the santai ambiance... it goes well with the theme: Tenang, Damai, Menyelerakan...
But I do hope the Santai management would do something about the dining chairs. It looked all worn out, with dirty stains and small tears.

Had: Sayur Campur (RM 8)
--nyuummm....oyster mushrooms everywhere!

Siakap Peksak (RM28)
-- oouhhh...sedap sedap!! sllurrppp.. I can still taste sweet and sourness of the gravy... tasted a bit like tom yam.

Butter Prawn (RM9)
-- Presentation wise: Nice
A bunch of fried su'un -is this how we spell it? topped with fried butter prawn, nicely decorated with salads and a flower shaped carrot. However, the butter prawns were too sweet for my taste bud.

They serve western food as well, and I think the price is quite reasonable.

So people, whenever you guys are in Kuantan, do try Santai!

** Sorry no pics this time**

Makan-makan di Kuantan (part II)

2010-06-02T13:28:00.003+10:00

And I quote from him, Food is my passion....

Sara Thai Kitchen (opening hrs: 1pm- 11.45pm)

Ada 3 cawangan kalau tak silap. Satu di Jalan Teluk Sisek, satu di hadapan Hotel Grand Continental dan satu lg saya tak sure (berdekatan dgn Kuantan Megamall??)
Kami anak beranak selalunya ke branch berhadapan dgn hotel tu. A bit easier to find a parking space and the restaurant has a much bigger space.
The restaurant serves an authentic Thai cuisine. Even amongst the workers pun you can hear them conversing in Thai. Selalunya time cuti sekolah atau pun weekends especially, selalu full house. Jadi kena la datang awal atau pun call utk buat reservation (tapi ramai2 orang pun, servis mmg cepat i loike!)
Dah nama pun Sara Thai Kitchen, maka semua makanan yang disediakan adalah masakan ala Thai... Semua jenis masakan panas ada tapi sup ekor tak de ye, harap maklum.

Contoh menu ala carte yg saya ingat2 lupa adalah seperti nasi goreng kimau (nasi goreng selasih/basil), nasi goreng kluk kapi (n.g belacan) & mee goreng phad siew (ni mee goreng biasa tu kot). Utk mendapatkan kepastian, sila la bertanya kepada waiter apakah maksud2 masakan yg ada di dalam menu itu.

Yang ini cawangan berhadapan dgn Hotel Grand Continental

Suasana di dalam kedai time tak berapa crowded

Tgh menunggu makanan sampai dgn penuh bergaya!

Top: Tom Yam Campur (ada model tangan org itu sambil memegang sudu)
L-R: Ayam goreng limau purut (sedap!!), Kangkung goreng belacan, kerabu sotong.

Rating: semualah sedaaaaapppp...sluurrppppp!!!! Regular customer hokay!

Makan-makan Di Kuantan

2010-05-31T18:33:00.005+10:00

Ni entry ala2 jalan-jalan cari makan....

Pak Lim Nasi Arab
Disebabkan boifren dah lama teringin nak makan nasi arab, kami pun terjah ke kedai Pak Lim Nasi Arab ni.

Di mana kah kedai ini?
Mintak maaf ler sebab tak ada the exact address. Tapi kedai corner lot, kat Jalan Hj Ahmad (mcm otw nak ke Teluk Chempedak, kalau dari area city, ie Kuantan Megamall tu pusing kiri, jalan ke depan lagi then kedai tu will be on your left) - senang nampak sebab signboard kedai ni besar.

Rasa: Boleh tahan sodap.. walaupun tak sama mcm nasik arab ori yg tok arab buat tuh..kalu yg tu, harus terangkat!! Nasi arab ni tak berkuah, tp depa bagi satu mangkuk kuah kari atau kuah dhal bersama2 dgn nasik ni.
Kami ada mintak lagi satu lauk tambahan ~ sup kambing. Sup dia tak mcm sup pekat kat kedai mamak nun. Sup kambing ni rasa mcm sup ekor sket2, ada masam2 jugaaa. Tapi rasa kekambingan ittew tetap ada.
Selain dari signature dish nasi arab & ayam rose, masakan panas & western food pun ada dijual juga. Panjang list dalam menu......

So apa lagi, sila la cuba!

Suasana dalam kedai (Lupa nak snap gambar dari depan kedai)

Nasi Arab (RM 3.80) + Ayam Rose (RM4.20)

Excuse the chicken yg dah dirobek.. hehe

Sup Kambing (RM 7.90)

Salah seorang customer sedang menikmati keenakan nasi arab

Maid In Heaven

2010-05-21T15:18:00.003+10:00

Just recently the government has set a new regulation on issues like providing a one day off to the maids, allowing them to hold on to their passports and also to provide compensation for maids injured at workplace. and oh... RM800 a month to hire a maid?

Personally I somewhat object (cewah mcm dlm court pulak) these so called new regulations. I see only the downside of it.

How sure are we that we will get an honest and qualified maids with that kind of salary? How do we know these maids will not run away at night (sometimes with valuables belonging to the employers). And who is going to look out for the employer's right? Aiya... and the list goes on....fuuhh stress headache.... (mcm la org yg cakap ni ada maid!! hehehehehe).

I have very little memory of having a maid when I was young. My parents hired a maid when I was already in my high school. The first maid was from Thailand, apa ntah nama dia. She was given a big room, next to mine. Sedap dia masak. She was with us for only a few months when she told my mum that she needed to go back "for a while" to her hometown to see her children. So my mum gave her some clothes and money (konon2 nak umpan dia to come back again). Tapi haram tak mai dah.

The second maid was from Indonesia, pun tak tahan lama. Sebab p.e.m.a.l.a.s.
After that, my parents stopped hiring any maids. We did everything on our own (eceh ceh...).

So back to the topic of discussion. Why the need for a weekly day rest? and that RM800 per month thingy. Are we willing to pay that much? Maybe in certain cases or in certain families memang the maid had to work their butts off. Tapi nama pun maid. Kalau suh buat tu tak reti, buat ni tak reti...sikit2 saya tak pandai, tapi makan nak yg sedap aje, apa majikan tak hangen!!
And I quote maid MakSu Tepeng yang baru, "saya lepas Isya pukul 8 terus tidur, barulah tidur berwudhu!" Waduh waduh... sedapnya dia tido awal. Tidur dalam iman gittew!!

With that one day off, the employer pulak disuruhnya pantau si maid. Aikk.. majikan agaknya dah takde keje lain kot nak kena monitor maid pulak. And again I quote, from Azd, "Apa kata suruh maid tu cari rumah sendiri, bayar sewa makan sendiri. Transportation sendiri. Cukup time malam, balik umah sendiri."

I'm sure most of the employers wont mind having to pay a lot of money (sebab kebanyakannya terdesak) but at least the agent should provide them with well-trained maids according to the specific needs of the employers, or at least lepas secondary education. Ni membaca pun tak reti, kunyit halia pun tak kenal, dah la kadang2 ada language barrier. Tapi bab mengira boleh tahan cerdik pulak!
Alahaiii.......

Pasar Malam

2010-05-21T12:18:00.005+10:00

I think it has been a month since the night market started its operation in IM 14. So far so good lah, the stalls keep on expanding, more people are coming. A busy environment every Thursday evening in front of our house.

Senang pun senang, jalan dua tiga tapak dah sampai... senang hati macam2 ada, tak payah pikir nak masak apa...main tunjuk2 aje...bila poket mengempis barulah saya pandang awak, awak pandang saya....muahahahahaha!!

Aiman pun excited if we tell him it's pasar malam day. Seronok sebab kadang2 terjumpa kawan tadika dia... tersengih2 je, tak pun terjumpa teacher dia.

And yesterday, "Aiman tak nak lah buy toys kat pasar malam, tak best, cepat rosak kan mama? kan? kan? Aiman nak buy toys kat supermarket aje, baru nice."
Peerrgghhhh..... mcm tu pulak! Standard shopping mall ghupanya dia.. ngeeeeee T_T

This morning otw to have our breakfast, saw a banner at the junction to our house. There's a meeting for the residents of IM 14 this Saturday about this Pasar Malam. Jeng jeng jeng... pasar malam menjadi agenda meeting??
Agak2 apsal yer... nak ban pasar malam ni ker? ada org tak puas hati ke? nak kata sampah bersepah2... so far tak de la bersepah sgt. Ke sebab meeting nak tambah tapak? Hmmmmm......

Alahai pomen...kenapa harus menipu?

2010-05-06T11:12:00.009+10:00

Lepas kena ketuk kaw2 oleh pomen hantu &%@#$^%%^%$ kat karak hari Ahad haritu, semalam kitorg pun ke Padang Lalang, cari kedai radiator. Tokeh Cina. Berenti betul2 depan kedai dia, terus tokeh tu datang sambil tersengih2. Ramai jugak customer yg tgh menunggu. Azd explain bok bek bok bek... pastu tokeh tu kata, takpe pukul 5 boleh siap. Oraiiitttt bebeh....

So menunggu la kat kedai tu, nasib baik ada aircond, tak la panas. Tak tahu berapa byk paper Harian Metro yg ada kat workshop tu saya khatam. Azd tunggu kat luar most of the time, tgk2 apa yg diorg buat.

Kejap2 saya keluar jugak jenguk bila nak siap. Azd kata sparepart utk Ford model ni mmg susah nak cari, kena order bla bla bla. Tapi not to worry, tokeh tu ganti dgn sparepart Ford baru, walopun not for this model. Hitam berkilat, fresh from the box! I loike!

Habiiiiiiis semua, tiba lah masa utk membayar. Cuak jugak kalu2 kena byk, tp alhamdulillah, acceptable la tokeh tu charge, tak sampai 1K pun. Radiator pun dpt yg baru.

Bila teringat balik kat episode kena tipu oleh pomen Karak kurang asam tu mmg BARA!!! Walaupun I was not there at that time, tapi terkena tempiasnya hokey!!?
Betapa kejinya perangai korang sebab amik kesempatan ke atas org yg tgh dlm kesusahan. Ingatkan sesama Muslim tu, adalah kesedaran sikit, jujur bila buat keje. Awak tu cari rezeki, kalau awak buat keje betul2, free2 je dapat berkat pahala apa semua tau tak. Kitorg boleh rekomen korang sebab ramai je member2 yg lalu kat Karak highway tu. Ni tidak!! lagi nak kelentong hidup2. Eeeeiiiiiiiii aku laaaa!!!!!!

Dah la tak solat...nak kata period, dah memang sah2 ko XY.
Radiator buruk second hand yg ko ganti tu ko charge seribu lebih, kipas yg korang kata "rosak tu" ko ganti dgn yg TAK berkualiti.. Tak sampai 24jam, radiator BOCOR balik. Apa hal???!!

Bila tepon, dgn muka TAK MALU dan TAK BERSALAH ko suh tambah lagi kalu nak cari barang baru. Kepala hotak la kan!! Keji keji keji!!
And ko tau tak, with the same unreasonable price yg ko charge giler2 tu, we all blh dpt 4 radiator BARU!
Yes I am totally PISSED!! @$%**)$^%$%!@#$!@#$$^%$
Org mcm ni yg memalukan kaum Melayu... memalukan org Islam!!! Tak tahu la dah berapa ramai org kat highway tu yg korang TIPU. Tak pe... tak pe... walopun tersangat lah marah dan geram sebab kena tipu beribu raban, takpe... what goes around comes around.
Semoga Allah akan membalas perbuatan korang ni dan memberi petunjuk kat korang.
Jadi lepas ni sapa2 yg tersadai kat highway, sebab kereta rosak, janganlah cepat percaya kat pomen2 yg berenti nak tolong. Mungkin ada satu dua yg betul2 ikhlas, tapi zaman sekarang ni, berapa kerat la yg betul2 trustworthy? Ramai yg jenis take advantage org2 yg dalam kesusahan... nak2 pulak kalau dia tgk org tu perempuan. So kena be extra careful. Jangan la cepat percaya kat org.
Semoga kita semua sentiasa dilindungi Allah dan sentiasa dijauhkan dari segala kejahatan.
Amiiiinnn.

HaPpY bIrThDaY AiMaN!!!

Mode: Ketika Cinta Bertasbih

2010-04-28T12:58:00.005+10:00

Bertuturlah cinta
Mengucap satu nama
Seindah goresan sabdaMu
Dalam kitab ku

Cinta yang bertasbih
Mengutus hati ini
Ku sandarkan hidup dan matiku padaMu

Bisikan doaku
Dalam butiran tasbih
Ku panjatkan pinta ku pada Mu Maha Cinta

Sudah di ubun-ubun
Cinta mengusik rasa
Tak bisa ku paksa walau hatiku menjerit

Ketika cinta bertasbih
Nadi ku berdenyut merdu
Kembang kempis dadaku
Merangkai butir cinta

Garis tangan tergambar
Tak bisa aku menentang
Sujud syukur pada Mu
Atas segala cinta

Cinta

Ketika cinta bertasbih....

Jumaat
~ Kenapa satu hari ni rasa tak sedap hati... mungkin sebab mlm semalam bermimpi sedih. Mimpi org yg tersayang meninggal dunia... Mainan tidur aje kot. Tapi dalam hati rasa nak sangat balik kl.....

Sesudah maghrib, tgh melepak2 di rumah... telefon berbunyi. Yati called. Kenapa pulak ni tiba2 je....
"Uder..yati ni. Andak nazak..... diorg tgh buat CPR. Pidot ada kat situ, tgh ajar andak mengucap...."
Ya Allah.... Kau panjangkanlah umur andak...
"ok, nanti uder bgtau Ucu"
Telefon Ucu.... "ucu, tadi yati kol, andak tgh nazak... uder nak balik kl ni"

Hati sebak... Patutlah hari ni rasa lain....
Cepat2 berkemas nak balik KL tgk andak...

Pukul 9 pm.... telefon berbunyi lagi. Yati!!
Dada mula berdebar-debar.... air mata dah mula mengalir di pipi....
Kenapa aku dah dapat agak apa yg yati nak bgtau....
Suara yati sayu...."uder....andak dah takde.........."
"Innalillahi wa innailahi rojiun"
Andak..............tak sempat uder nak jumpa andak!

Sepanjang perjalanan ke kl, jari-jemari sibuk menghantar sms kpd kwn2...menyampaikan berita sedih, Fauzan telah kembali ke rahmatullah..

Kemudian Faizi kol...
"uder, kat mana ni?"
"on the way balik kl..."
"uder......" dia terdiam... mungkin sebak.
"uder dah tahu.... ko kat mana ni?"
"kat simpang pulai lagi....hujan lebat"
"bawak kereta baik2, jumpa nanti... sabar ye Faizi"

*********
Sabtu pagi

Bertolak ke rumah keluarga andak di Rawang. Kereta di kiri kanan jalan, orang pun dah mula ramai. Nampak mcm ada kenduri. Teringat masa kenduri kahwin arwah dulu... mcm ni lah. ramai org... meriah!
Cuma bezanya kali ni bukan hari yg gembira. Semuanya muka berduka...
Aku masuk ke dalam rumah. Berpelukkan dgn mak andak...dgn una... dgn cik odi..
sekujur badan terbaring kaku, ditutup dgn kain putih. Hibanya... org2 di keliling membacakan surah Yassin...
Tak lama kemudian, jenazah diusung ke dalam van, utk dibawa ke masjid berdekatan. Farhan menangis... mungkin dia tgk uminya tidur, takkan bangun lagi... atau mungkin dia menangis inginkan sesuatu.... Farhan kecik lagi...tak tahu apa2....

Jenazah andak dimandikan dan dikafankan di masjid. Ramai kawan2 ukm yg datang memberikan penghormatan akhir kepada arwah..
Sebelum muka andak ditutupi kain kafan, semua keluarga mengelilingi jenazah... memberikan kucupan terakhir buat andak.
Andak, uder pun turut cium dahi andak... sejuknya... pucatnya... cengkungnya...
sedihnya.....
Laju air mata ni mengalir..... sedih tgk anak2 andak mencium pipi uminya utk kali terakhir...

Di perkuburan....
Yati, ateh, fidot pun ada. Kami berpelukkan.
Di tempat persemadian andak sementara menunggu hari kebangkitan seluruh umat.
"ayah, umi kat situ ke?" aku dengar Farhan bertanya pada Faizi.
Imam membacakan talkin.
Selesai semua, farhan dan faezah taburkan bunga di pusara uminya..
bergelak ketawa.... gembira.... ya allah, mereka masih kecil... masih belum faham yg uminya sudah tiada...
Farihin pulak asyik merengek dikendong Una....
Mata Faizi merah, sebak.... kawan2 datang mententeramkan dia.. memberi kata2 semangat utk dia.
Faizi, ko kena kuat semangat... tabahkan hati... demi anak2!

Andak, damailah dikau di sana.....
uder rindu kat andak...
uder teringat masa kita sama2 belajar dulu
teringat masa kita sama2 keje dulu
teringat kali terakhir uder berjumpa dgn andak di hospital....
andak kata "bila la andak dapat jumpa uder lagi, ntah2 lepas ni tak sempat dah..."
Andak....Maafkan uder sebab tak sempat uder nak jumpa andak.
Sudah ketentuan Illahi andak pergi dulu....
Mungkin ini yg terbaik... daripada andak terseksa sakitnya chemo.

Ya Allah, kau ampunilah dosa sahabat ku Fauzan Mohd Hata
Kau cucurilah rahmat ke atas rohnya
Kau letakkan dia di kalangan mereka yang mendapat keberkatan Mu...
Dan Kau kuatkanlah semangat suamianya, Faizi serta anak2nya...
Lindungi lah mereka...semoga mereka tabah menghadapi dugaan ini.

Al Fatihah utk sahabat tersayang...
Dr Fauzan Mohd Hata (22 Julai 1979 - 2 April 2010)

Can I help you miss?

2010-03-30T21:11:00.003+11:00

Let me tell you about some of my not so delightful incidents when going to a restaurant/cafe/warung dan yg sewaktu dengannya.

Scene One:
Recent incident @ kedai pizza yg terkenal tu lah:
Dah la service slow, waiter pun sekejap2 dtg tanya nak reconfirm order. Ok so he was a trainee, acceptable lah for his slowness. And then mintak set lain, bawak mai set lain; got an extra drink and bread sticks. I dont mind, infact terima dgn mulut terbuka. But being a Muslim, tak elok la kan mkn benda yg kita tak bayar. Jadi darah daging kita kan. So bila tanya balik the 'real' staff, rupa2nya memang dia tersilap bagi set, but nevermind she said, we can have it for free. Alhamdulillah, rezeki. And then, tgk2 pizza tu pulak was not super supreme! Tak sure pizza amende tapi takpe la, nasib baik sedap aje.
Mkn punya mkn, minum punya minum, baru boyfriend perasan ada anak lipas penyek kat dlm air dia (melekat kat gelas). I was like uurrghhhhh!!!!!! minum dah separuh... aiyaaaaa...... kurang asam sungguh!
When we went to the counter to pay, dah bayar etc, then I told adik counter tu, "Adik, next time sebelum serve air kat customer, make sure gelas bersih. tadi ada jumpa anak lipas dlm gelas. Tak elok la kan."
Naib baik adik tu said, "Mintak maaf ye kak" bla bla bla...
ok fineeeee...

Scene two:
Incident restaurant depan rumah.
Masa ni baru2 je masuk rumah. Saja la testing kat restaurant ni, sebab dekat sgt dgn rumah. We ordered nasik ayam + Milo ais. Bila milo aisnya datang, tgk2 bhgian atas gelas tu mcm errr...not so clean lah. Lepas tu tgh2 dok asyik mkn nasik ayam (dah la ayam kecik) sambil selak2 kulit ayam ittew then...jeng jeng jeng... tidaaaakkkkk... kenapa ada telur lalat??????? why on my plate??
aduuhhh.. mati terus selera nak mkn.
Bila byr kat kaunter tu, I told the guy, nasik ayam tu ada telur lalat lah. Dia pulak mcm blur blur... "huh ye ke? hah tak pe lah, tak payah bayar lah utk nasik tu".
Selamat la u ols kena blacklisted from me hokey!

Scene 3:
This was last year kat uptown bangsar. My brother nak belanja mkn western. Mmg ramai la org kat foodcourt ni. So I ordered sirloin black pepper steak, and my bro ordered T-bone steak with diane sauce. Lupa pulak what my sister and mom ordered tp lbh kurang sama la menunya.
Tungguuu lama then ada la sorang POKCIK TUA ni hantar mknan kitorg, letak2 pinggan terus nak blah. I asked him NICELY lah, "pakcik, yang ni sirloin steak ke?" (sambil point kat pinggan depan mata. Tetiba je POKCIK TUA ni mcm hangen, jawab high tone, "awak order apa tadi???"
"saya order sirloin black pepper steak", i said sambil dlm hati dah mcm apahal org tua ni?
"hah kalau awak order sirloin black pepper, sirloin black pepper lah!"
"tak de la, saya tanya sebab tak tahu, takut tertukar dgn org lain punya order" (masa ni still blh control suara lg)
"saya keje kat sini, saya tau la sirloin black pepper tu mcmana!" org tua tu jawab.
"pakcik, awak mmg patut tau la sebab awak pekerja, saya ni tanya sebab saya ni bukan keje sini!" (start my high tone jugak lah)
"awak mkn je la apa yg awak order tu bla bla bla bla.... dia membebel"
Org keliling dah tgk dah... "WHATEVER LAAA!!" i shouted to him.
Dia pun blah mcm tuh je.
Adooiiii...baranya dlm hati masa tu. mkn pun tak habis, bukannya sedap pun ko masak!
Org tanya baik2, jawab la baik2.. susah sgt ker pakcik!???? Patutnya makin tua, makin wiser la sket. Mcmana org nak respect, kalau awak sendiri tak respect kat orang?
Kedai ni pun selamat dah kena blacklists jugak!!
Menci!

Anak

2010-03-22T13:48:00.004+11:00

It happened again!
But this time, alhamdulillah the baby was found alive!
The immorality of these people nowadays...
They ought to be shot dead! hanged alive!
Why do they do such a thing?
Haishhh...... sedihnya bila baca paper, tgk berita kat tv
Hari-hari ada je berita kemalangan maut
Hari-hari pasal baby kena buang
Dah pandai 'buat', pandai pulak buang2.... mcm anak patung
Nak buang pulak, pilih tempat2 yg jijik..
nak 'up' sket, pegi buang kat masjid...
Binatang pun pandai sayang anak...
Ni pulak manusia yg ada otak, tapi tak pakai...
Ada hati, tapi busuk sebusuk-busuknya...
Kalau dah terpreggy, jgn la dibuang baby tu... sebusuk2 hati pun, serah la kat JKM ke, kat orang ke...
Kat luar tu, berapa ramai org yg nak anak, tapi takde rezeki....

******
Tetiba teringat zaman houseman kat Taiping dulu....
Was doing my oncall one day in the labour room.
Came a young girl, heavily pregnant, and in labour.
After the routine history taking and examinations, took her to the labour room.
Later I found out that she was merely 16 yo, had run away from home, came to the hospital with her 'aunty'.
The 'aunty' had already contacted JKM to take away the baby once delivered.
So there she was, in pain. Crying and shouting... Once a while she would call out "mak" when the contraction peaked.
When it eased off, I asked if her husband came along. She said there was no husband. Never was.
And that after the delivery, she wouldn't want to have any connection with the baby.
Sigh.
She had an uneventful delivery. It was a healthy baby girl.
But sadly the young mother refused to look, to hold the baby, even for a second....
She turned away, acting like nothing had happened. Kept asking when can she be discharged.
As if the long 10 hrs of labour pain had meant nothing.
Ya Allah.... I was speechless.
That was 7 years ago... the baby would be all grown up.. and would be in Std 1 this year.
I pray for her well being... Hopefully she is in good hands.
But what become of the mother?

1Malaysia

It has been ages since I last updated this blog. So many things to do.. and yet so little time (ye ke?).
We have officially left the land down under.
Am missing the scenic view, the courtesy, the honesty, the cleanliness, the environment, the services, cool weather etc.
And now welcoming all the loved ones, good food, great places, hot weather (aduhhh.. kena cari fair & lovely daa)...
not to mention the Msian drivers who never fails to ignore the existence of signal light, 'cilok'ing here and there, driving while amik angin and talking on the hp.
and the list goes on and on... yes.. welcome back to malaysia.
So many things have changed and yet the mentality is still the same. Sigh...

Home Sweet Home

Already 3 weeks in Ktn... almost collapsed when I first saw the house. Terima kasih kpd adik2 bujang dari Kolej Shahputra dan UiTM Ktn... jasa dan peninggalan mu dikenang.
Thank you for all your CRAP!! Thank you for making a MASSIVE mess! Thank you for stealing and breaking stuffs in our house.
Thank you for leaving a soccer ball in the fridge and playing futsal in the house. Thank you for your irresponsibility, your ignorance. Your brainless action clearly shows your stupidity and immaturity. And you guys called yourself college students?? Boooooo Hoooooooo... SHAME on you people!!
I can nag all day long but I'll keep some when the time comes for us to meet again. Just remember, what goes around, comes around. You'll get your share of the deal.. !!@@#%&**#%!!!!

" haaa... nanti kita blh extend the living hall in the future (berangan)"

Playschool

Yup, we sent Aiman to a playschool very near to our house. It;s already week 2 now. At first he was very much excited when we told him that he's going to school. "nanti aiman ada kawaan.. ada teacher," he said. Was relieved to see his anticipation.
But I spoke too soon bebeh! It was a hard job getting Aiman to go to school!!!!!! Phewwwww... first day at Taska: melalak menangis sebatu blh dengar!
Sedihnya dengar dia nangis..... rasa nak join nangis skali. But what to do...I had to lah.
To date, he would cry all the way to school.... but alhamdulillah, tak la lama dia cry. separation anxiety je kot pepagi tu. When it's time to pick him up, berseri2 je wajah, happy and smiling. Muka pun kdg2 putih mcm tepung gomak teacher sapu bedak. Hehehehehe....
Cuma this week teacher suruh pick him up a bit early, coz last week Aiman sedih when he saw his friends went back home before him. Wokeh la... no problemo. Demi mu Aiman....muah muah.....
Hopefully Aiman senang la pergi school lepas ni & tak cry2 dah....
Skrg nk tunggu dia lembut hati pakai uniform taska je hehehehe....

Sayangi dan Bersyukur Pada Suami

2010-01-14T10:56:00.000+11:00

SUATU PERJALANAN
“Tanggungjawab suami selain memberi nafkah dan mencari rezeki, jangan lupa bimbing anak dan isteri. Kalau suatu hari berlaku selisih faham, jangan cepat menuding jari. Duduk berbincang dan cari kata sepakat. Tiada bumi tak ditimpa hujan.”

Teringat pesan ayah di suatu petang...
“Ayah dulu bila arwah mak mula bising bersuara, ayah tak balas dengan kata-kata. Ayah keluar hidupkan motor, pergi ke Behrang cari mee goreng mamak. Bila sampai saja di rumah, ayah hulur pada arwah Mak, muka yang tadi masam terus tersenyum riang. Suami kena tahu kesukaan isteri, supaya mudah memujuk hati,” ayah menambah berkongsi pengalaman selama 41 tahun bersama arwah Mak.

Persefahaman antara suami dan isteri bukan boleh dicapai sehari dua. Ia merupakan satu perjalanan sepanjang usia perkahwinan. Cabaran dan dugaan pastinya tidak sama, di awal, pertengahan dan di hujungnya. Justeru, sikap saling memberi dan menerima sangat perlu dipupuk dan dibaja. Memberi kelebihan diri untuk saling melengkapi. Menerima kekurangan untuk saling menginsafi, suami mahu pun isteri bukanlah manusia sempurna.

SILAP ISTERI
Kesilapan isteri bermula apabila melupakan kebaikan suami kerana benci dengan sikapnya yang tidak menyenangkan hati. Silap menjadi dosa andai keistimewaan suami orang yang sering dibicara. Keburukan suami dijaja, atas alasan minta nasihat rumahtangga. Tapi apa maknanya kalau semua orang bercerita. Rasulullah SAW pernah mengingatkan melalui sabdanya yang bermaksud:

“Wahai kaum wanita, aku lihat kamu ini lebih banyak di neraka”Seorang wanita lalu bangun bertanya, “Apakah yang menyebabkan yang demikian? Adakah sebab kami ini kufur?”Rasulullah SAW menjawab, “Tidak. Bukan begitu. Tetapi ada dua tabiat kamu yang tidak elok yang boleh menjerumuskan kamu kedalam neraka:

1. Kamu banyak mengutuk atau menyumpah

2. Kamu kufurkan kebaikan suami.”

Ada kalanya, isteri merajuk tanpa sepatah kata. Suami yang tak tahu menahu, terus buat biasa. Muka isteri semakin kelat, hilang serinya. Menahan ego diri, ingin dipujuk dengan kata cinta, namun tidak berbicara dan bersemuka. Suami tertanya-tanya sendiri, akhirnya terasa hati. Salah siapa agaknya, bila masing-masing memendam rasa. Kasih mula bertukar marah. Marah marak menyala benci.

YANG LEBIH, YANG KURANG
“Awak beruntung ye, dapat suami yang memahami. Tak seperti saya. Hari-hari menjeruk rasa,” luah seorang teman yang baru beroleh cahaya mata.
“Suami saya juga ada kurangnya. Tapi kelebihannya lebih banyak untuk saya perkatakan. Saya pun isteri yang ada salah dan silap,” jawab saya supaya dia buka mata.
“Ada suami yang tak pandai urusan rumah tangga, namun dia bijak berjenaka, meriah suasana. Ada suami yang jarang menghadiahkan bunga, tapi selalu membelanja anak dan isteri dengan makanan istimewa. Dan ramai juga suami yang tidak reti memujuk, bermain kata. Tapi mudah bertoleransi bila diminta bantu sini dan sana . Ketepikan kekurangannya dan ambil kelebihan. Pasti awak juga akan rasa bertuah beroleh suami seperti dia.” pujuk saya lagi. Moga-moga dia berubah hati. Kembali ‘memandang tinggi’ kehadiran seorang suami.

ENGKAU TERBAIK UNTUKKU
“Sedangkan lidah lagi tergigit, apa pula suami isteri, buang yang keruh, ambil yang jernih. Baru teguh peribadi.”
Wahai teman bergelar isteri, mari kita muhasabah diri. Pohon keampunan dari Ilahi agar cinta Nya bersemi kembali. Banyakkan istighfar dan juga sedekah, kerana janji Allah setiap kebaikan menghapus kejahatan.
Susunkan jemari pintalah kemaafan dari lelaki bernama suami. Jangan bertangguh dan jangan lengah. Bimbang maaf tiada serinya lagi.
Pandang wajahnya, lihat matanya. Bisikkan di sanubari, “Terima kasih, suamiku. Engkau terbaik untuk diri ini.”
Mencari dan terus mencari cinta Ilahi.
Saling berpesan-pesan kpd kebaikan..

“The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing...”

Selamat Datang Ramadhan

Lama blog ni tak berupdate. 'Main Author' nya lebih senang berFB drpd blogging.

Sempena bulan puasa yang bakal menjelma seminggu lagi, saya kepilkan beberapa hadis Nabi berkenaan puasa yang saya dapat dari seorang teman yang juga ustaz di FB. Perlu diingatkan supaya berhati-hati kerana banyak hadis2 palsu atau maudhu' yang sering kita dengar dibacakan apabila tibanya bulan Ramadhan, terutamanya berkenaan fadilat solat tarawih.

Selamat berpuasa!

HIMPUNAN HADITH-HADITH SAHIH MENGENAI RAMADHAN

Sekiranya semalam saya berkongsi menghimpunkan beberapa hadith maudhu’ dan dho’if yang popular disebarkan semasa Ramadhan, insyaAllah pada kali ini kita akan menyenaraikan beberapa hadith sahih mengenai fadhilat Ramadhan. Hadith-hadith ini sepatutnya menjadi prioriti kita untuk disebarkan bagi mencetuskan kesedaran rakan-rakan mengenai bulan yang mulia ini.

1.Abu Hurairah meriwayatkan, bahawa Rasulullah SAW bersabda:
اَلصِّيَامُ جُنَّةٌ فَلاَ يَرْفُثْ وَلاَ يَجْهَلْ وَإِنِ امْرُؤٌ قَاتَلَهُ أَوْ شَاتَمَهُ فَلْيَقُلْ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ – مَرَّتَيْنِ – وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَخُلُوفُ فَمِّ الصَّائِمِ أَطْيَبُ عِنْدَ اللهِ تَعَالىَ مِنْ رِيْحِ اْلمِسْكِ، يَتْرُكُ طَعَامَهُ وَشَرَابَهُ وَشَهْوَتَهُ مِنْ أَجْلِي، اَلصِّيَامُ لِي وَأَنَا أَجْزِي بِهِ، وَالْحَسَنَةُ بِعَشْرِ أَمْثَالِهَا [متفق عليه]

“Puasa adalah perisai. Maka hendaklah seseorang tidak berkata (berbuat) keji dan tidak berbuat jahil. Dan bila ada yang mengajak bertengkar atau mencelanya maka katakan: “Sesungguhnya saya sedang berpuasa” – dua kali – Dan demi Zat yang jiwaku ada di tangan-Nya, sesungguhnya bau mulut orang yang berpuasa lebih harum daripada bau misk di sisi Allah. Dia meninggalkan makanan, minuman, dan syahwatnya kerana Aku. Dan Aku sendiri yang akan membalas amalan baiknya dan ketahuilah bahawa satu kebaikan dilipatgandakan balasannya sampai sepuluh kali kali ganda” [Muttafaq ‘alaih].

2. Sahl bin Sa’d meriwayatkan yang Nabi SAW bersabda :
إِنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ بَابًا يُقَالُ لَهُ الرَّيَّانُ يَدْخُلُ مِنْهِ الصَّائِمُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، لاَ يَدْخُلُ مِنْهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُهُمْ، يُقَالُ : أَيْنَ الصَّائِمُونَ ؟ فَيَقُوْمُونَ لاَ يَدْخُلُ مِنْهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُهُمْ فَإِذَا دَخَلَوا أُغْلِقَ فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ مِنْهُ أَحَدٌ. [متفق عليه]

“Sesungguhnya di Jannah ada sebuah pintu yang dinamakan Ar-Rayyan yang masuk melaluinya pada Hari Kiamat hanyalah orang-orang yang berpuasa. Tidak akan masuk seorang pun melaluinya selain mereka, kemudian diserukan, “Manakah orang-orang yang berpuasa?” maka mereka pun berdiri. Tidak ada seorang pun yang akan masuk melalui pintu Ar-Rayyan kecuali mereka. Setelah mereka masuk semua, maka pintu itupun ditutup, sehingga tidak ada lagi yang bisa masuk melaluinya.” [Muttafaqun ‘Alaih].

3. Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri meriwayatkan yang Rasulullah bersabda:
مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَصُوْمُ يَوْمًا فِي سَبِيْلِ اللهِ إِلاَّ بَاعَدَ اللهُ بِذلِكَ وَجْهَهُ عَنِ النَّارِ سَبْعِيْنَ خَرِيْفًا [متفق عليه]

“Tidaklah seseorang berpuasa sehari di jalan Allah melainkan Allah akan menjauhkan wajahnya dengan puasanya tersebut dari api/nar di hari kiamat, sejauh 70 tahun.” [Muttafaq ‘alaih]

4. Hudzaifah meriwayatkan yang Rasulullah SAW bersabda:
فِتْنَةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَ مَالِهِ وَ جَارِهِ تُكَفِّرُهَا الصَّلاَةُ وَ الصِّيامُ وَ الصَّدَقَةُ (متفق عليه)

“Dosa yang dilakukan seseorang kerana fitnah keluarga, harta, atau jiran akan dihapuskan melalui solat, puasa dan sedekahnya.” [Muttafaqun ‘alaihi]

5. Abu Hurairah dan Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri melaporkan yang Rasulullah bersabda :
(( لِلصَّائِمِ فَرْحَتَانِ يَفْرَحُهُمَا إِذَا أَفْطَرَ فَرِحَ بِفِطْرِهِ وَإِذَا لَقِيَ رَبَّهُ فَرِحَ بِصَوْمِهِ )) [متفق عليه]

“Bagi orang yang berpuasa ada dua kegembiraan: Jika berbuka dia bergembira dengan berbukanya tersebut, jika bertemu Rabbnya (Allah) dia bergembira dengan (pahala) puasanya [Muttafaqun ‘alaihi, dengan lafaz Muslim].

6. ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr berkata yang Rasulullah bersabda :
(( الصِّيَامُ و القُرآنُ يَشْفَعَانِ لِلْعَبْدِ يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ، يَقُولُ الصِّيَامُ: أَي رَبِّ إِنِّي مَنَعْتُهُ الطَّعَامَ وَ الشَّهَوَاتِ بِالنَّهَارِ فَشَفَّعْنِي فِيهِ؛ يَقُولُ القُرْآنُ: رَبِّ مَنَعْتُهُ النَّوْمَ بِاللَّيْلِ فَشَفِّعْنِي فِيهِ فَيُشَفَّعَانِ ))

“Puasa dan Al-Quran keduanya memberikan syafa’at untuk hamba tersebut pada Hari Kiamat. Berkata puasa: “Wahai Rabb, sesungguhnya aku telah menghalanginya dari makanan dan syahwat pada siang hari, maka terimalah syafa’atku untuknya.” Al-Qur`an berkata: Wahai Rabbku, aku telah menghalanginya dari tidur pada malam hari, maka terimalah syafa’atku untuknya. Maka keduanya memberikan syafa’at [Ahmad dan Ath-Thabarani]

7. Abu Hurairah meriwayatkan yang Rasulullah SAW bersabda :
(( ثَلاَثَةٌ لاَ تُرَدُّ دَعْوَتُهُمْ : الإِمَامُ الْعَادِلُ، وَالصَّائِمُ حَتَّى يُفْطِرَ، وَدَعْوَةُ الْمَظْلُومِ … ))

“Tiga pihak tidak akan ditolak doa mereka: Seorang pemimpin yang adil, seorang yang berpuasa hingga dia berbuka, dan doa seorang yang dizalimi…” [At-Tirmidzi dan Ibnu Majah]

8. Abu Hurairah berkata, sesungguhnya Rasulullah SAW bersabda:
(( اَلصَّلَوَاتُ الْخَمْسُ، وَالْجُمُعَةُ إِلَى الْجُمْعَةِ، وَرَمَضَانُ إِلَى رَمَضَانَ مُكَفِّرَاتُ مَا بَيْنَهُنَّ إِذَا اجْـتَـنَبَ الْكَبَائِرَ )) [رواه مسلم]

“Solat lima waktu, Jumaat ke Jumaat berikutnya, Ramadhan ke Ramadhan berikutnya merupakan penghapus dosa-dosa selama masih meninggalkan dosa-dosa besar”. [Muslim]

9. Abu Hurairah melaporkan yang Rasulullah SAW bersabda :
(( وَمَنْ صَامَ رَمَضَانَ إِيمَانًا وَاحْتِسَابًا غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ ))

“Barangsiapa berpuasa Ramadhan kerana dorongan iman dan mengharap (pahala) maka pasti Allah ampuni dosa-dosanya yang telah lalu”. [Muttafaqun ‘alaihi]

10. Abu Hurairah melaporkan yang Rasulullah SAW bersabda :
(( إِذَا دَخَلَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ فُتِّحَتْ أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ، وَغُلِّقَتْ أَبْوَابُ جَهَنَّمَ، وَسُلْسِلَتْ الشَّيَاطِينُ ))

“Jika telah datang bulan Ramadhan, maka dibukalah pintu-pintu langit dan ditutuplah pintu-pintu Jahannam, serta dibelenggu para syaithan”. [Muttafaqun ‘alaihi]

11. Hadith Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri :
(( إن لله تبارك وتعالى عتقاء في كل يوم وليلة – يعني في رمضان – وإن لكل مسلم في كل يوم وليلة دعوة مستجابة )) رواه البزار

“Sesungguhnya Allah memiliki orang-orang yang dibebaskan (dari azab neraka) pada setiap siang dan malam bulan Ramadhan, dan sesungguhnya setiap muslim memiliki do’a yang mustajab pada setiap siang dan malam” [Al-Bazzar]

i dream of X.....

2009-06-06T03:02:00.002+10:00

It is now 3am, am helping out azd with the transcribing (but he had already gone to bed, tak pe la..he started his work earlier tadi).

so just a quick entry before i forgot the storyline....jeng jeng jeng!

*******
my dream last night:

suddenly in a place where there were lots and lots of kids....playing with their swords. it sort of looked like a lightsaber...ala yg mcm dlm citer star wars tu..... there were many cubicles.....then suddenly all the children disappeared.
so i asked somebody (tak perasan la sapa) what happened?? where did everybody go?? so this somebody said... the human population has extinct.

waaaaahhhh...mcm citer sci-fi pulak mimpi kali ni....
pastu tetiba je ada scene where people were busy doing something.... i looked around. they were loading their weapons with some kind of bullet.

begini ler kira2nya dialog dlm mimpi tuh:
"apa benda tu?" i asked them.
a somebody (terpaksa panggil somebody sebab tatau pompuan ke lelaki...hehe) said, " ni senapang nk lawan anjing.... anjing tu bukan real anjing... dah kena virus giler apa ntah... so kalu nmpk anjing tu ko tembak la dgn senapang ni"
"apsal bullet tu kaler putih? mana dapat?" i asked that somebody again.
"ni special bullet ni... susah nk cari tau. brand dia 'X'. kalu nk, kena beli kat franklin street nuuuhh," that somebody said and pointed to a junction.

then i looked to that direction, i saw franklin (a supermarket).... but i didnt see any franklin street. so i walked into the supermarket... tetiba je ada kat isle baby food, cari susu aiman....alamak!! susu naik harga lagi!!! cehhh......

end of mimpi....terbangun sebab nak terkucil
muakakakakakakakaaa......................................................

2009-06-02T02:52:00.004+10:00

Jam dah pukul 3.30am. By this time yesterday, azdie was probably updating his blog...sambil menari pocho-pocho...muakakakaka......... ingatkan dia tgh buat apa pukul 4 pagi smlm, goyang2 depan computer, ghupanya dok hafal steps nak berpocho-pocho. Alkisahnya, tghari tadi masa aiman tgh tido, kitorg beriya menari pocho-pocho depan komputer...hahahahaha...nak tergelak. mula2 tu pening jugak nak ikut, last2 dgn adanya tok guru azd, maka berjaya ikut steps cikgu tudung hijau tu menari...wachaaaa!!! tp kak emy kata, yg tu just the basic steps, ada lg sambungannya....tak pe la, lain tahun la pulak.

So skrg azd dah terbabo. Aiman pulak dah 4 kali mengigau...hopefully tak nangis la. mlm tadi ke rumah kak zurin, solat berjemaah, bertahlil & baca yassin. Ayah kak shikin passed away early this morning. I'm sure it was a total shock for her. Apa2 pun kami doakan semoga kak shikin sekeluarga sentiasa tabah & semoga roh arwah ditempatkan di kalangan org2 yg beriman...al fatihah.

Masa mkn2 kat rumah kak zurin tu aiman seronok sakan main dgn syifa, ashraf, iman & ryan. Dok mengusik je kerja dia sambil ikut ashraf. Yg best tu dia panggil syifa, oya...oya (sofea). Laaaa......sofea masih di dlm kotak ingatannya...hehehe... tatau la, sometimes out of the blue tetiba je aiman dok cari2 oya.... oya ane?? ada sekali tu kat dlm toilet, dia nmpk toilet bowl terus ckp oya cing cing.. aiyaaakk..rupanya dia teringat ada sekali tu dia ikut sofea gi pee pee...hahahaha.... mcm laaaa takde benda lain nk ingat aiman ooii...
kdg2 uwin (aunty zurin) pun dia cari jugak. Sampai kena call kak zurin sebab aiman sibuk cari uwin nk borak. ouhh...glamer sungguh kak zurin ni..aka uwin aka aunty judy aka aunty zoey!! hehehe

***aiman mengigau***
"abang...laliii...laliii....(lari..lari)"
-hmm...tu mesti teringat dia dok lari2 ngan ashraf tadi

"cnkslajfgkfkn,z......(tatau apa aiman mumbling...pastu gelak2)

aiman terbatuk.... "mama...maman atukkk"
-gave him susu, abis sebotol then dgn mata tertutup rapat, aiman tersengih sambil kata "laaannn.....laannn.....maman umpa elannnnn (maman jumpa uncle lan)
hehehehe........teringat kat abang lan ghupanya.

****end of mengigau episode***

once upon a time at berrima a few weeks ago.... kak zurin panggil abg lan "sayaaang ... bla bla bla..."
aiman pun dok menyibuk panggil abg lan "sayaaaanggg....sayanggg"

Goodbye tokki......

2009-04-10T16:08:00.005+10:00

Welcome back to me.....alaaa, nak balik m'sia balik!!!!!

*************

A few nights ago, I had a dream. it wasnt a nightmare or anything. I dreamed of my late grandfather, tokki or ayah as we all called him. I was at his house in KT, and all I could remember was tokki smiling and giving me a kiss on my forehead. And then I woke up.

Tokki passed away recently when I was back home. But unfortunately, due to some unavoidable circumstances, I was not able to attend to his funeral :(
The last time I saw him was about 2 years ago, when all of us went back to KT to attend kak emi's wedding. He was as usual, bed bound (he suffered a stroke many many years ago and as the years gone by, his health slowly deteriorated as well).
So i introduced Aiman to him, his i dunno 8th or 9th great grandchild. Because of the stroke, his speech was slurred but his memory was still intact. My grandmother, whom we called chek said, "ni org jauh mari ni... ingat dok?? elyn, anok ton. ni cicit ada skali nih. dok tahu laaa lepah ni dang ke dok nok jupe lagi"
and yes he remembered me, "elyn...hmmm mung blajo molek"
he was laughing and then he cried...sebak kot....sedihnya tengok tokki.......

When azd asked me, what can I tell him about my late tokki? Hmmm...garu kepala...
not much. He was a good man. Most memories with him were from my primary school years. We only got to see my grandparents during raya break, so that was like once a year. Sometimes he would come and visit us in KL. And when tokki was staying in our house, he would always be MIA. Where to?? He went to his fav place --> Chow Kit...hehehe... terer naik bas mini all the way from Cheras. kagum i!

And I remembered there was a pasar malam behind our house,and one night he decided to sell keropok there. So we took this one spot (which was so not strategic, a small lane next to the big main road where the pasar malam was, and it was dark!), set up the table, laid the keropoks and waited for somebody to come and buy the keropoks. And of course harus la adegan jerit2 from tokki and I, "keropok!!! keropok!!"
I think we managed to sell 2 or 3 packets of keropok that night and the money went to me...upah jerit tokki kata......hehehehe kelakar giler!
So those are some of the memories that I could remember this very minute about tokki...sedih pulak :(

May Allah s.w.t. grant Allahyarham tokki His blessing and forgiveness and will include his soul as one who is deserving of rewards in Al-Jannah.
Al-fatihah....

Taking a break...home sweet home

2009-03-10T23:27:00.004+11:00

"update la blog....lepas ni cuti 2 minggu sure tak update punya", big boss berkata-kata. "hmmm....baik boss," balas PA.
Bercuti kah kami? partly yes, taking a break, catching up with families and friends back home. But in truth hati tak senang maaa....Azd has to prepare for a conference in KL, I have to finish reading THAT book (uurgghhh)...tak pe tak pe, put aside those unhappy feelings for a moment. yang penting kita enjoy balik ni!! yiiiihaaaa!!!

So all the gifts have been packed in one big bag, tinggal nak susun baju je. Very the excited ok!! and not forgetting the thrill of going to bib's kenduri this saturday. Maklum la sejak dtg sini we missed a lot of those nasik minyak events. For the kenduri, azd has been appointed by the "commitee members" of Kota West to be the cameraman cum escortman for bib. I'm sure he'll do a great job capturing those happy moments on camera but sadly today his precious camera buat perangai pulak. Kesian dia, kalau hantar service amik masa 2 minggu. Sabar ye babah aiman, at least it is still working walaupun ada sikit bengong :p

Anyway I'm sure everybody cant wait to see aiman. Lets just hope he'll behave himself on the plane tomorrow night, and sleep all the way through.... errr cough syrup anybody??? zzzzzzz.....

alrighty, take care people!!!

When the wise men speak.......

2009-03-06T14:18:00.004+11:00

from a sv to his ever so blur student: Dont be like monkey see, monkey do...take this book, read it, grasp the basic, we'll discuss this in 2 weeks time. AD can do it, she struggled at first but in the end she wrote a hell of a thesis. I'm sure you can too, it is tough but that's just life. but remember, time is crucial!

student: me...monkey????? blur...blur...

********

from a father to his whining daughter: happiness is not the station you arrive at but the way you travel to reach that station. So cheer up my dear daughter. No pain no gain. When there is pain, dont be insane :)"

daughter: yes my dear abah.... but oh my, insanity is like a kiss away from reality

*******

and last but not least hehehe...

from a depressed wife to her i-am-doing-phd-too husband: ala tensionnya....tak paham...rasa mcm aper je... blah blah..blah...##@@$**###!!..... sroottt...sroot...sroott....(a must have Kleenex scene)

an honest reply from a serabut-too-husband: hmmm...sabar la, nak buat mcmana... Ok lah, nak gi mandi!

wife: (dlm hati..huh apa??? nak gi mandi??????) Uwaaaaaaaaaaaa................!!!! #%%$$#@$##%&*^#$$@$!#!

aiman: tjom..babah....tim tim (swim-swim)

Weekend out...yumm yummm

2009-02-16T15:16:00.006+11:00

Went to Chatswood on Sunday. Joined Kak Zurin, Abg Lan, Noor and Fathy. Main agenda: to eat hainan chicken rice! Yummy... It's owned by a Malaysian, and serve halal food. Plenty of food choices but we usually opt for chicken rice or sometimes assam laksa. I was so hungry because I didnt take anything before I went to the lab that morning (very bad habit!! yeah I know).
"number 24...hainan chicken rice!!" shouted the nyonya.

So everybody ordered the chicken rice except for Azd. He wanted chicken chop instead (reason: "I dont want to eat rice today"). But to his 'surprise??' the chicken chop came with rice anyway...hahaha.. punah harapan babah aiman utk tak makan nasi for the day. And then makan time!! (that is after abg lan recited the doa makan of course :P).

Chicken chop vs Hainan chicken rice

Aiman was as usual, ate a little bit here and there. Was more interested to "aliiii ...aliii..." (lari lari, with the hope that somebody might wanna play lari-lari with him but sorry bebeh, semua org sibuk melantak). Oouhhh dan sebelum makanan yg terhidang di meja masuk ke mulut, everybody (saya ngan kak zurin ler) sibuk menangkap gbr makanan. " kena masuk blog ni," kata kak zurin. hahahaha... i like!!

Everybody with their hungry smile.....bila blh start makan ni???

After that, we walked to Westfield Chatswood (just across the road). Once we were there, Aiman made a scene. He didnt want to sit in his stroller nor did he want to wear his harness sling. Azd and I had to struggle to put him in his stroller. Aduuuh sampai bengkok2 badan bergusti ngan budak kecik ni sorang. In the end berjaya, and as a reward (for not crying out loud hehehe) we gave him a westfield balloon (because he saw that aluuuun aluuunn).

Everybody did some window shopping, and then kak zurin asked, "elyn mana kedai churros tu?". ohhhh bestnya, I could taste the churros and the choc dip in my mouth already... "tuuu kat atas tu, nampak tak? jom kita minum2 dulu...."

Hot and cold hot choc

When kak zurin saw the shop she said, "laaa..akak mati2 ingat kedai jual churros tu gerai kecik2 je mcm kat gold coast tu, rupanya kedai sebijik". oh yes kak zurin, kedai sebijik yg jual all sorts of wicked chocolate thingy.

So what is churros??

Quoted from Wikipedia: Churros, sometimes referred to as a Spanish doughnut, are fried-dough pastry-based snacks, sometimes made from potato dough, that originated in Spain. Churros are usually made of a batter which is piped into extremely hot oil. They are certainly not a low-fat snack because of the frying process. Once the churro is fried it is traditionally rolled in hot cinnamon sugar. The ideal churro has a distinct crunch when one bites into it, but the interior should have a slight softness at the center.

Ok that's a little story on churros... sedap dimakan panas2.. even more sedap when you dip it in chocolate sauce. The one that kak zurin ordered came with milk choc dip, dark choc dip, caramel dip and white choc dip. And the drinks of course, cappucino, latte, mocha macarena and hot and cold hot chocolate. Oooohhh laaa laaa.....heaven!! Dan harus la ada adegan klik klik tangkap gambar juga.

I did try to make churros once but sadly I scored zero!! my churros turned out to be like a question mark shape... and a bit soggy (probably the oil wasnt hot enough)....but the major setback was because I didnt have the right star tip to squeeze the dough. Kesian kak zurin & abg lan terpaksa jd food tester to that soggy churros. hahaha... Oh well, better luck next time.

Aiman naik Barney..vrooommm vrroommm

p/s: terima kasih byk2 kpd fathy + noor & kak zurin + abg lan sebab belanja kami nasi ayam ngan churros! semoga sentiasa dimurahkan rezeki.... thanks again!!!! :)

A wet Sunday

2009-02-15T11:21:00.002+11:00

In the lab right now. And what the heck am I doing in the lab on Sunday?? Beats me!! Got a few stuffs to do, but was not really sure am I supposed to be doing it (after having a 5hrs meeting with my sv last Friday)... adoooiii laaa sampai berasap kepala otak!! Conclusion after the meeting: felt like banging my head against the wall, down sedown-downnya..waaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!
Full stop.
Sent Aiman to his new babysitter yesterday for the so called trial thingy. Arrived at around 9.45am, had a chat with Nunu (the babysitter). Learned a new word as well ie "dot" (the pacifier, or known as "tin tin" to aiman). I bought one of aiman's toy just in case but when we came in maaak aihh Rafa's toy (Nunu's 2 yr old daughter) pun dah banyak dah. So I dont have to worry about bringing any more toys for them to play. She even had this huge toy (like a trampoline but it looked like a small pool and was made from plastic). Aiman confirm suka toy ni sebab dia blh lompat2!
And there were lots of big soft toys too including Iggle Piggle!! Yeayyy... Aiman's fav character from the series "In The Night Garden". After making sure everything was OK, then off we went. And as expected si kecik melalak when he saw us leaving him from the balcony. Kesian anak mama.... but hooyeahhh i didnt shed a tear.. well done to me!! hahaha.
Spent the next few hours in lab (ye saya sgt rajin! or was it terpaksa??), headed back to Lakemba for lunch. Had nasi beriyani and tandoori chicken. nyamm nyamm....But tgh2 melantak berdua dgn AzD of course la teringat kat aiman kan...apa dia tgh buat agaknya?
Then it was time to pick up aiman, yippieeee......
When we came in, aiman just had his bath. tersengih2 and he hugged me. rindu bangat sih sama anak mama! hehehehe....
Nunu said, "nampak mamanya pergi terus nangis, tapi nangisnya sekejap aja. Makan pun OK, uk uk pun udah cuma susunya nggak mau minum. Air putih juga dikit bangat diminum. Dan dia mau main sama Rafa"
At that time Aiman was happily jumping up and down in the big plastic toy. And Nunu continued, "Iyya, dia pinterrr skali nonton Iggle Piggle sama Rafa. Bila lagunya keluar, terus menari2. Dan bagusss, nggak kacau sama org".
She then took her handphone (wah wah nokia baru...cantik bangat...hahah sempat perasan lagi tuh!) and showed me the videoclip of Aiman and Rafa dancing. Kelakar je bebudak ni menari depan tv.
Ouhh pinterrrrr pinterrrr anak-anak ini. Alhamdulillah everything went well!! And it was a good thing that I didnt have that "unhappy" feeling like when I sent Aiman to his previous babysitter. That's a good sign, right??
After that we went back home. On our way back Nunu called, "mba, maaf ya. tadi ribut2 sampai lupa 'dot' aiman tertinggal!".
"nggak apa2 nunu, saya ada lagi satu dot aiman di rumah. nunu simpan aja ya, nanti minggu depan kan aiman dtg lagi. ok daaaa"
Hehehe...end of conversation. dot... dot.... tanpa mu aiman nggak bisa bobok!!!
Ok back to today's story. It's still raining. It's actually has been raining for the past week and the weather forecast says the wet weather will continue throughout the whole next week as well.. oh dear... basah la kasut ku nanti :(
It's summer but it feels like autumn. Autumn in summer. Sometimes you can have all the 4 seasons in one day kat sini. Right now there's flooding in the north Queensland and bushfire in Victoria. They called it the "black saturday" because it was the worse bushfire ever that happened last weekend and about 180 people (i think) were killed and thousands more lost their homes. Donations came pouring from people all across the country within a very short period of time. To date I think they manage to collect millions and millions of dollars to help the bushfire victims. Hopefully the bushfires will be contained soon.
OK la...dah lapar.... daaaaaa!!!

p/s: just received a call from kak zurin ajak gi makan nasik ayam kat chatswood... adakah boifen ku mau???

International school

2009-02-11T16:01:00.005+11:00

Came home...no one was here. AzD and Aiman are still in Wollongong. So took some time to update my blog. Aiman is currently at Mama Azreen's house. He must be having fun coz there are kids the same age as him.
Was planning to send Aiman to a new babysitter today but had to cancel it. It'll be his first time with the new babysitter. I cant just leave him there like that. Kang demam terkejut lak budak tu kena tinggal with someone he has never seen before. Probably on Friday or maybe Saturday, will be the trial day for Aiman. Will drop him off, stay with him for a little while then off I go. And it wont be a whole day thingy, just a few hrs the most.
So Aiman had been to various international schools (that's what my abah called...hehehe). When he was just abt 4 mths ++, we sent him to his very first bbsitter; Jasmin (from Bangladesh). I dropped him in the morning then off to school. Then picked him up in the evening. The first day we sent him, Aiman cried and cried. Sedih kena tinggal kot (ala mama dia pun srooot srroott gak). When we picked him up that day, he didnt want to look at our face when we called his name (kecik2 dah merajuk..ciiit).
After a while we stopped sending Aiman to Jasmin. Then starting from last year till now, whenever Azd goes to wollongong, he'll bring aiman along and drop him off at kak azreen's house. Biasa la first day uhuk uhuk. After a while he got use to it and now I think he has fun staying over there. Good for him!! At least he mingles with other kids as well.
At the same time, we tried to find another babysitter closer to home so that we could send him there if Azd decided to stay at home to do his work. We managed to find one (from an ad in Lakemba). This time it was a Palestinian couple. We sent Aiman there like 2x/week. Since there weren't any kids (except for every thursdays), Aiman was all alone. Kesian anak mama.
I wasn't full heartedly happy everytime Aiman was there, I dunno why. So alas, we stopped sending Aiman to sekolah tok arab (as my abah called it).
Then last week, we met a new babywitter, Nunu (from Indonesia, which part of Indo I forgot). She was introduced to us by Tante Eli. She just came to Australia about a year ago with her hubby and their 2 yr old daughter. Had a little chat with Nunu.... which in the end I got a minor headache trying to communicate with her. Hahahaha... Masing2 tak berapa nak paham. For example she asked me, "Aiman masih diberi asi nggak?".. I was like huh...ape ke bendanya asi nih??? nasi ke??
"asi? apa itu asi? saya nggak ngerti nunu," I asked her, trying my best to immitate her indo dialect. hahahaha.... kelakar giler!!
i think she was trying to explain it to me sampai ketat2 muka dia... nasib baik tante was there and she said "oh asi..... itu Air Susu Ibu"
Hahahaha....ceh ingatkan makanan special apa..rupanya susu ibu dong!! pusing bangat!
There were some other stuffs that Nunu and I had trouble understanding each others word, which I find was quite funny but I cant think of any right now. hehehe.
So there you are.... international schools for Aiman.. starting with IBS (International Bangla School), to Malay, Arabic and latest Indonesian school. ngeh3x.
Hopefully everything will be OK with this new bbsitter, insya allah!!!!

p/s: hah!! these pictures below are totally not related to the story above :p
it was taken during our visit to sydney wildlife park.

Aiman's first encounter with the snake...

aksi ganas.... the wombat strangler!! run wombat run!!

hey...how come this wombat doesnt move??? giddy up!!

Ok so these are the common questions that azd and i got whenever me meet our friends in fb or in person or kat mana2 je la... "bila nak abis?" or "bila nak balik m'sia ni??"
Hmmm it's actually a tough question. To be honest, it's a bugger to us. Yet we can only reply, "tak tahu la bila". Why? because although there is a black and white statement or contract or whatever you called it, saying that we're suppose to complete everything within the 3 years given, but much to our dismay there are things, events that we were unable to avoid or control. Kalau ikutkan hati nak balik m'sia dan dan tu jugak but it's not that easy la bebeh.
We can only plan but the rest is up to the Almighty!
And then sometimes people might say, "amboi ada masa u all update blog?" or "waaa nampak seronoknya u all jln2 dlm gbr ni" or "berjalan aje korang ni ek??" hehehe...
Well dearies, this is just a clarification from us. Bukan apa, we do not want people to think that we have all the time in the world to go berjalan2 aje...
No laaahh. All those pics of us berjalan2 tu biasanya during the weekends, kalau ada masa. Of course we looked happy and enjoying ourselves. Mana ada pegi jln2 tp tak seronok, kan?
So semua pun harus la happy2, senyum2. Kalau bercerita pun kena la cerita yg ceria2....kalau cerita yg sedih2 ... atau asyik whining selalu ke.. nanti blog pun gloomy. Plus I dont want our families in Malaysia to be worried or sad kalau baca entry yg tak best, dok gitu??
Cerita yg tak berapa sedap tu biar la rahsia...cewah! unless if i have to kalau tak tahan sgt, then maybe ada la kot nanti satu dua entry luahan perasaan. hahahaha....
Till then, do pray so that Azd and I and of course including our postgrad friends yg lain will manage to complete this journey and go back to m'sia to be with our loved ones! yeahhhh.....rindu KL! Muaahhhh.....

Creative thinking??? or confused????

2009-02-01T16:14:00.007+11:00

Scene One

Was watching Scooby Doo with Aiman the other day. There was this scene where Scooby was in a pirate ship. So I asked Aiman, "Aiman, what's that?".
"Bo", he replied, which meant 'boat'.
"No, it's not a boat sayang, it's a ship", I corrected him.
Aiman looked at me, a bit puzzled. " Shihh (ship)", he repeated.
So I asked him again, "what is that Aiman?" while pointing my finger to the pirate ship showing on the TV.
"Bekkk....bekkk...." Aiman replied.
Alamak..... now he's confused between a ship and a sheep!!

VS

Scene Two

We brought Aiman to visit Sydney Aquarium. It was somewhat like the Aquaria in KLCC but there was no travelator throughout the tunnel. Nevertheless it was fun and the view was splendid.

So there we were in the oceanarium, looking at the stingrays, sharks and other fish as well. Then there was this one big shark hovering on top of us. So I pointed it to Aiman, "Aiman look, a shark!". He was too busy jumping and running here and there and didn't pay much attention.

I called and pointed to him again," Aiman tengok la ni... shark!"

So I managed to get his attention. He watched the shark and shouted, "Lane!! lane!!"

Alamak again..... And now he's confused between a shark and a plane. But you cant blame him for that..hahaha..sebabnya bila shark tu berenang2 kat atas terowong tu, memang nampak mcm one big airplane!!

I'm hungry..what's for dinner??

2009-01-30T00:49:00.001+11:00

Didn't have lunch today... so by 5pm, my tummy started grumbling... After azd had his quick nap, we went out to our usual favourite place to dine, The Taste of Thai (TOT). Just about 5 minutes drive from our house. How very convenient to live in Bankstown. Halal food is easy to find, and since there's a Vietnamese town here fresh veges (asian vege) are abundant! Seronok i!!Ok back to our dinner story. So we parked right in front of TOT. Table no.1 is our usual spot but somebody was seating there so we sat some where else. Waiter dia pun dah kenal dah agaknya muka 3 ketul ni, tersengih2 tgk Aiman. We ordered steamed rice with Tom Yum mixed seafood, sizzling beef and Hoy Jor (tatau apa benda ni tp sedaaaap sgt). When the food arrived, Aiman started his temper tantrum. Like always, he didnt want to stay put (u cant expect an almost 2 yr old boy to have proper table manners, can u??). Nasib baik la minah waitress sorang ni dtg amik Aiman, pujuk dia dgn ais-krim. Elok duduk diam pulak budak kecik ni. So he got himself a choc ice-cream. But the rich and luscious choc ice-cream couldnt stop Aiman that very long. Dia start balik mengganas..hehehe. Kesian mama ngan babah terpaksa mkn laju2...
Lepas mkn, off we went to Centro Bankstown. Azd wanted to find some Wii's accessories. Maklum le, skrg tgh Australian Open... teruja la nak main game tennis... hehehehe. Didnt stay long at Centro sebab mcm biasa Aiman tak moh dok diam. Dia nak lepas sebenarnya, tak mau duduk dlm stroller. Mana blh tahan beb!!
So after we found what we were looking for, we went straight back home, rasmikan racquet tennis Wii.... lepak2 tgk Roger Federer main tennis (yeay see u and Nadal in the finals!). And now it's almost 1am...lapar la pulak.......

Muka jejaka yg kelaparan yg sempat menunjukkan simbol 'V' dgn jarinya di hadapan TOT

Muka kebosanan Aiman....

Hoy Jor yg sedaaaap...but this time lettuce dia bg sekeping je..ciiit!!

Cuci-cuci mata...

2009-01-29T13:44:00.005+11:00

When is the heatwave going to end??? Panas sangat.... Nothing much you can do when it's hot. I noticed my temper shoots up really fast time2 tgh panas ni (oh really??? now i'm blaming the weather?). When the weather is hot, you cant help but to go out, catch some fresh air (fresh????) and of course cuci-cuci mata as well.
So there we were, driving to Wollongong (I did the driving coz AzD wanted to snap on some pictures). First stop to UoW, dropped Azd kat situ and then headed to the botanical garden. Gave Aiman his own sweet time to run here and there. He had his encounter with the ducks and swans, sea gulls and some other species of birds which all seemed look alike to me. hehehe....
Then Azd came along and off we went to Warrawong because he had to meet someone there. He dropped us at Westfield Warrawong. Spent the time window shopping and trying oh so hard to keep the coin operated toys from Aiman's sight but to no avail. Ye lah, pusing kiri ada menatang tu....lari ke kanan ada menatang tu jugak. Tension betul. So ended up by taking Aiman to play at the westfield's indoor playground. There were some other kids as well, tp Aiman yg kecik sekali.
After Azd had his work done, we went to the North Beach. Initial plan was to go and dip ourselves in the water but it was freaking hot. Tengahari buta..matahari dok tercacak. Confirm berbelang hitam kalu gi mandi gak. Nasib baik Aiman pulak tertido. Tak sampai hati nak kejutkan dia.
So we decided to head back home, but on the way, stopped @ Bald Hill Lookout, such a breathtaking view. Azd had his hands full taking more pics.......

Morning with Aiman....

2009-01-21T11:14:00.007+11:00

Fuuuhh..... just finished presenting for the journal club this morning. Although it is our lab punya jc, dan yg dtg pun muka2 lab mate je but the pressure to stand in front of people and just talk is mounting high and exhausting. Tu tak kira kalau present kat mana2 conference...lagi laaa berdebar2 sampai sakit dada. Skrg ni pun tgh gabra sebab supervisor dah nak mai balik :(
Azd is doing his work at home (ye ke???) accompanied by yours truly si kecik aiman. it's very hard to do your work at home because aiman tends to distract you and demands your full attention. Dia nak ada org dekat2 dgn dia. kalau tak, asyik dok ikut la punggung mama babah dia. Tak tahan laaa kalau dia meraung menangis if he doesnt get what he wants. Tapi tu la, dia kecik lagi... biasa la at this age and stage byk karenahnya. kena banyak sabar dan sabar dan sabar dan sabar.....Alahai anak ku aiman, betapa dikau menguji kesabaran ku.....huhuhuhu.
Skrg ni makin banyak vocab aiman. Dia suka sangat kalau baca buku sama2 dgn dia. And he knows quite a number of animals dah and the sounds that they make... yg latest, kalau tanya dia pig (haha mcm tadak binatang lain daaa) bunyi mcmana dia pun jwb "oin oin".
And he calls himself "maman"..hahaha how sweet.

So this is a typical morning kalau dok kat umah ngan Aiman. If he gets up first, sgt la dengki kalau tgk mama ngan babah dia still asleep. Maka dia akan korek hidung la, pukul muka la sambil dok ngomel2 apa ntah. Bila dah bgn, he'll point to his eye and says "pek..pek" (suh mama dia pakai spek) and ajak "uaaa" (keluar from the room). Then he'll start playing with his toys and skrg he really likes playing with his train "omas"(Thomas and friends). Breakfast with Aiman takes a looong time (rasanya be it having a breakfast or lunch or dinner, memang berkurun nk tunggu dia abis makan sebab dia suka main2). He doesnt really fancy eating breads. Tapi kalau bg dia "eh" (egg) ngan kicap jalan aje. Sebab skrg dah pandai mintak, kdg2 pepagi dah nak makan "akin" (ice cream). So skrg ni ptg2 je sometimes bg aiman "nyam nyam akin".

Aiman tgh mkn "akin" dgn bestnya...

Lately sebab panas agaknya, asal nampak babah dia masuk bathroom nak mandi lajuuuu je ikut sebab dia nak "tim tim" (swim2). But before that dia akan tarik2 baju ngan seluar sambil kata "open" or "kukak".. suh bukak baju dia sebab nak gi "tim tim". Bila dah masuk, he'll ask for his "qua qua" (rubber ducky), "bo" (boat) and "piii" (toy fish).
Budak ni kdg2 senang nak gosok gigi dia, kdg2 susah giler. Tp sejak dah beli berus gigi baru which he calls it "poooo" (sebab ada gbr Winnie the Pooh), nak jugak la dia gosok gigi. Tapi berangan, nak pakai toothpaste org tua. Pastu dok "hot hot" sebab rasa berangin. kui3x....

Aiman tgh brush teeth sampai berpeluh-peluh...(tp mm kata tu bukannya peluh la...tu air liur aiman meleleh-leleh)

Nanti time mandi2 tu Aiman sukaaaaa sgt nyanyi2..agak2 blh la masukkan dia kat Australia Got Talent nanti.. hahahaha. Bila dah siap mandi, Aiman pun pakai "pipi" (nappy) and mintak "aju" (baju) & "uar" (seluar). Kdg2 kalau dia rasa nak nampak lagi smart, he'll ask for his "tok" (socks). Utk lebih bergaya dan kacak lagi, dia will point to his hair and say "kon" (mintak comb la tu nak sikat rambut dia). Ala aiman ni kalu sikat rambut pun tak jadi ape laa.... confirm tercacak balik!! Still standing??? Yesss... still standing!!
Lepas penat bergaya, dia pun mintak la nak "tutu" (susu). Sambil dok buat "tutu" kat dia, Aiman pun bz tolong kira berapa scoop dah tuang...."wan...tuuu...teee... eben...ten" (1,2,3,7,10).
Oh and not forgetting Aiman's best friend, nama dia "tin tin". Biasanya lepas minum "tutu" Aiman cari bestfriend dia. Aiman ni ada byk best friend. Ada kaler biru, hijau, putih, purple...tp lepas satu2 jd penyek & hilang . Tapi patah tumbuh hilang berganti tauuuu.... skrg ni "tin tin" aiman kaler purple.... and of course dah penyek dah (tu yg sedap kot)... as a backup plan, harus ada spare best friend dia ni sebab kalau Aiman tak jumpa best friend dia sibuk la dok cari "tin tin ane??.. tin tin ane???". So who or what is this "tin tin"... jeng jeng jeng: puting Aiman laa...Hmmm aiman.. aiman... bila nak stop bertin-tin ni????
Kdg2 kalau atas katil, Aiman "bum bum" minum "tutu" while playing with his "bibibear" (teddy bear). Sometimes Aiman shares his "tutu" with his "bibibear" (sambil tonyoh2 botol susu ke mulut bibibear dia).. abih la masam bibibear aiman. Bila tangki sudah penuh, start la balik aksi2 tak-duduk-diam-walau-seminit aiman.......
Waaaahhh agak pjg entry kali ni....ok la will be continued later with other version of Aiman's vocab and updates.

skrg kat umah sorang2, balik awal dari school. hajat dihati nak wat keje kat umah (boleh?? boleh??). sebab kalu dok kat lab, rasa mcm tension tgk org lain wat keje. last month masa tgh uni break 2 weeks, time bebudak tu tak gi lab, rasa lengang sket bila wat keje. sebab sorang2, takde sapa kat lab. ni school dah start balik...adeehhh. jiwa kembali kacau........
azd ngan aiman gi wollongong. rindunya kat aiman. call kak azreen tadi saja tanya aiman apa cer. dia kt aiman tak moh mkn...dia pun naik risau, nasib baik susu dia minum. so i told her la aiman skrg ni ikut mood, time makan, memang dia mkn. dtg mood dia 'nanak' makan, serve la apa2, nehi layan ok.... geram gak kengkadang. kita dok risau dia lapar ke apa ke..tp dia rilek je...active kemain.

and bercakap pasal panas ni, i wonder if we should cut aiman's hair. dah panjang dah rambut si kecik tu. kesian gak kdg2 tgk dia dok menggaru kepala. ke patut tunggu bila balik mesia nanti?? yeayyy.... bulan 3 ni nak balik mesia!!! tp yg tak bestnya, balik kejap aje. only for 2 weeks. takpe la, at least dpt ticket free (huyeaahh!!). bulehs la gi kenduri bib. tp fenin gak dok pk mcmana nak bwk balik brg2 utk family ni. org kat mesia dah pesan, balik nanti tak yah bawak balik bj..huhahuhahuha.. ada unsur2 keperlian di situ...hehehehehe

2009....

2009-01-07T15:06:00.002+11:00

It's day 7 of 2009.... how time really flies... another new year has begun. A new chapter...new hope.
People around the world celebrated new year with fireworks worth gazillion of dollars... singing and shouting and dancing..etc etc...happy faces..no worries..
But in one part of the world...Gaza City...innocent lives are simply worth nothing. Zero... Zilt... Nada... :(
Deadly Israeli raids killing hundred of Palestinian people. As the death toll surged, help and aid are no where to be seen (or unreachable).....not to mention the bias report from the media. WHAT IS ALL THIS CRAP????
We may not be able to help those in need directly but please do whatever we can ie donating etc....pray for our brothers and sisters...pray for the innocent children...
Ameeeen.....

towards the end of 2008......

2008-11-26T18:09:00.003+11:00

ish ish ish... lama giler tak update blog.. maka terbuktilah betapa busy nya saya dan keluarga saya yang tiga ketul ni...
since i am currently in the lab, sambil2 menunggu cell yg tengah diincubate, terasa hendak pula di hati utk menghapdet blog yg dah lama bebenor tak diterjah.
makanya apa yg nak di story??? sooooo many things happened sampai tatau mana satu nak cerita..
but to make a long story short, dapatlah disimpulkan bahawa:
1) july-august: boy (my brother) came for a month holiday here.. yippie... bestnya ada kawan. kebetulan memang rezeki dia, azd ada conference kat brisbane, so angkut boy skali ke sana.. so dapat la dia merasa gold coast (mek, jgn jeles ok.. nak wat guane)
2) sept-oct : reena (my sister pulak) came for a holiday.. and again yippie... ada geng utk dibuli..... unfortunately tak la dapat bwk reena jauh2 sgt sebab time tu tgh busy. tp at least brought her to see all the tulips and other flowers during Floriade. And sangat best sebab mek bek ada time pose and raya.. hehehehe.......amacam dik, seronok beraya di perantauan??????

lepas semua dah balik... rasa sunyi sangat.. waaaaaaaaaaaaa....kalu la blh ikut balik skali... tak pun nyorok dlm beg ke apa ke...tp takpe, insya allah...awal tahun depan akan balik jua bercuti walopon cuma 2 minggu aje...
Raya tahun ni... rasa mcm tak semeriah tahun2 lepas... apsal ntah... tp aiman la best, byk betul koleksi bj raya dia especially baju melayu.. ada kaler ijau la, pink la, kuning la.....hmmm.. bila nak start ganti puasa ni???

Ok la, time to update on aiman.... he's already 18 months.... lasak kemain... kdg2 tak larat nak layan especially time dia manja ngendeng2..... I noticed post measle, his appetite dah tak mcm dulu.... sikit2 geleng kepala 'nanak' 'nanak'... rasa sikit dah luah... nasib baik susu ngan fruits dia layan. Currently his vocab makin maju... he can differentiate who's mama and babah..(suka dgr dia panggil 'mama'.. 'babah') and who's aiman of course. He knows how to point to his nose, eyes, tongue, teeth, ears, tummy, hands and his feet when asked. Terbaru, pandai tunjuk and cakap pipi.....hmmm... and he likes to immitate what people are doing.. hehehe... kelakar je. Cuma time dia membebel tu tak paham bijik butir dia kata apa.. :p
Nowadays, whenever I go to school and Azd has work to do, we send Aiman to a Palestinian babysitter in Roseland... nasib baik la tak jauh sgt rumah tok palestine tu... mula2 sedih giler... tapi nak buat mcmana kan... skrg pun sedih jugak. So azd la yg hantar aiman.. Kesian anak mama..... When it's time to pick him up, kdg2 tu nampak dia duduk elok je.. bila nampak mama or babah dia, terus meraung... hehehe... Amni (the babysitter) even said sometimes Aiman sits in front of the door... agaknya mengenang nasib diri kot... sedih kena tinggal.. pastu dok tunggu mama babah to come to his rescue. eceh ceh....
Aiseyyyy... a lot of work to be done... but such little time and little effort from me....come december next week, uni cuti pulak for 2 weeks... ni yg tanduk makin panjang niiiieee....... arrghhh...... bila nak jadi rajin???!!!
new resolution... must have new resolution.... tp resolution yg dolu2 pun jd pekasam.... how???
emmphh... tiba2 rasa tension... ok la.. tata!!

German Measles

2008-10-28T13:39:00.002+11:00

Last Wednesday, we noticed there were some faint red spots on Aiman's face. The night before his body was a little bit warm, 'dedaq' kata orang utara. Then the spots appears to be like rashes and it continued to grow.

So yesterday, after 3 days the symptoms appeared, we went to Ashby Medical Centre just to confirm that it was measles, and yes it's German Measles.The doctor said that this type of measles does not make you really sick and it will goes away without anything to be worried. No wonder Aiman was as active as usual, just a little bit cranky and lost his appetite. Nevertheless, he still drinks his milk and likes to eat fruits as usual.
Measles is a very infectious disease. So we decided not to go out and just stay at home until Aiman is totally recover. Today we are going to miss two Raya open houses, and we might be canceling our plan to have an open house at our place too. Just don't want to jeopardize other people, particularly young mothers who might be pregnant and babies.

An excerpt from http://www.medicalonline.com.au/medical/child/german_measles.htm :

"Rubella, or German Measles as it is commonly known is a viral disease transmitted by the inhalation of infected droplets from the air. German Measles can be transmitted by the infected person to others for one week before the onset of the rash. The incubation period is 14 - 21 days with an average of about 6 days before the appearance of symptoms. One atttack usually confers permanent immunity.

The main feature of the disease is the appearance of a fine pink rash often preceded by mild symptoms of a general virus infection, a slight fever, conjunctivitis and a general feeling of not being well. Adults, especially young women, may develop joint pains.

The rash starts on the face and spreads to the trunk and extremities and may only be present for a matter of hours to 3 days. It may also be so faint as to be missed altogether.
The treatment of rubella consists mainly of treating the symptoms which may be very mild indeed.

Aspirin may be all that is required. If you are concerned that you or your child may have caught rubella then your doctor can have you tested for positive signs of the disease and he can also put your mind at rest by establishing the presence of antibodies which guarantees your immunity to complications particularly in pregnancy."

Ramadhan Kareem

2008-09-08T11:33:00.001+10:00

Ramadhan Kareem

It is almost a week since the month of Ramadan has started. For Muslims who observe the teaching of Islam, it is the month when they fast during the day, beginning from dawn until sunset. During this time, one should not only prevent oneself from eating and drinking, but also avoid doing things that can cease the fast and stop doing unbeneficial actions. It is the best time to double one’s ibadah and recite the Quran, aiming to conclude reading the entire book in one month.

Nevertheless, Ramadan does not stopping us from doing activities together with family and friends. There are two types of pleasures promised for those people who fast: one in the day of judgement and another is during Iftar, or breaking the fast. And these two ni’mah will only be enjoyed and experienced by true Sa’im. It will be more blissful if we can get together for iftar, prepare food for other people, enjoy different kind of food together and perform Solat Tarawih jointly, which only present during Ramadan.

It is the third Ramadan for me and my wife in Australia. Fasting in a foreign country, where the majority are non-muslim, is an experience not everybody will have. “OH! It is that time again! I’m sure you will lose some weight”, said one of my friends. “I’m sorry. I’ll try to eat slowly in front of you, since you can’t eat” said another thoughtful friend. Meanwhile, some just bite the Pringles hungrily. I keep on telling them to just proceed as usual, nothing different is happening. I am just fasting, I am not starving myself to the point that I can’t control myself when food is around me. In fact, these type of challenges will make us stronger.

So, to celebrate the beginning of this holy month, a few friends around Sydney have gathered for an iftar at Abg Ghazali’s house yesterday, Saturday, in Blacktown. Among the special menus are satays, curry mee, sup kambing (not sure whether lamb or mutton), bubur lambuk and a lot more. There were lots of food that everybody ended up with full tummy, and have some take-away before going back home. We also enjoyed performing solat Maghrib, Isya’ and also Tarawih in jamaah. Another special event, there was also a Fathers’ Day cake, prepared by the mothers, since today is Fathers’ Day celebration here in Australia. Thanks to all mothers who have done a really good job in remembering special events like this, not like us fathers, haha. Hope you guys were not looking forward for the same kind of thing in the coming mothers’ day celebration…

"Aiman bagus skalii!!"

Alhamdulillah, Aiman good boy. Baru balik solat jumaat kat masjid bankstown ni, jalan kaki 6 minit 60 saat sampai la. Nyaris tak pegi sebab earlier aiman ngengada, nangis la, merengek la. Lepas bagi makan, siapkan susu ngan air masak ngan tingting, tolak jugak naik stroller. He was OK all the way, tengok bird. Kat masjid, biasa la, parking kat tikar ujung sekali kat luar, biar aiman ngadap jemaah. Masjid tu kecik aje, so depa hampar tikar kat parking lot. Imam dah baac khutbah suku dah. Dalam hati dok doa aiman tak meragam la, sebab dia sleepy dah tu. Biasanya Jumaat kat school, hari ni second time usung aiman pi masjid. First time dulu ada pakngah dia.

Ramai budak2 muda, hat tua pun ada, dok lepak kat belakang tepi pagar, dok bersembang. Depa ni tak tau kot kalau tak dengaq khutbah takdak padhilat solat jumaat la, dok buat laghaa. Seb baik khutbah lagi kuat dari sora depa ni. Bila solat dah nak mula, kalut la mai dok masuk barisan. Keluar dari kereta yg parking dekat ngan aiman sorang bapak budak dok dukung anak pompuan dia, besaq sikit dari aiman. Dia masuk dok ujung sekali tepi aku, dan letak anak dia sebelah dia. Dok diaam ja budak tu sampai pak dia abih solat. Dalam hati kata, "hmm ada jugak geng bapak2 mcm aku, kena bawak anak pi masjid". Aiman pun good boy, kelik pok kelik pok mata dok tgk orang semayang.

Gambar ataih stroller tu masa dah nak balik, sengih ja. Aku bukan apa, masa kat masjid Penshurst dulu tok imam tu kasi warning, " it is a sin if you bring your children to Jumaah prayer". Mungkin sebab bebudak ni bising kot, pastu masjid tu takdak compound yg luas macam kat bankstown ni. Tapi kan, tak tau la mana mai kata berdosa bawak budak pi masjid. Kadang2 tok2 imam ni cakap tak pikiaq, bila kata lagu tu mola ada orang yang tak pi masjid langsung sebab nak kena jaga anak. Patutnya dia habaq la suruh bapak2 ni kawai anak2 depa, bukan pi habaq kata berdosa mai masjid bawak anak. Bukan ka? Bila pikiaq2, ada hikmah aku mai pindah bankstown ni. Bukan takat kata buleh bawak anak pi masjid, dapat dok saf depan lagi. Sebab masjid tu kecik, lepas khutbah, belakang imam akan berjalan keluaq dan pi dok kat depan sekali. Kiranya aku dok line depan la, walopon jauh dari imam. Satu ja, doa bagi AIman tak keriau sudah.

Tok imam hari ni cerita pasal nisfu Syaaban, pastu ramadan dah dekat. Malam esok ada program lepas solat Isya' sempena nisfu Syaaban. Kalau kat malaysia kebanyakan masjid dan surau buat baca Yasin 3 kali. Kat sini depa tak buat. Malam ni kat MyHall ada ceramah sempena isra' mi'raj. Tak dengaq cerita pulak pasal nisfu Syaaban. Mphh takpa, kita pakat buat sendiri la no. Bukak buku baru ni harap2 berkurangan la catatan dosa, buku hat lama ni tak tau la banyak mana merah.

OKlah, nak pi makan tumpang aiman dok lena. Dia terlena masa on the way back tadi ataih stroller. Wassalam.
