New Life, New Beginning..

Dear Beautiful readers,

New life, new beginning...
Wish me luck (more to come...tunggu!!)

iPod Touch

Dear Beautiful readers,

Last weekend, I was in KL to settle some pending tasks (I will move to KL soon, InsyaAllah).

As expected, I managed to grab the new iPOD touch (I have been waiting for this for so long, mcm tunggu "seseorang" je!)

Here are some of the snapshots. I simply love it!

P/S: I also bought a book on Che Det's blog. Love it too!

Sorry again..

Dear Beautiful readers,

"Tak tahu apsal I am so lazy to update my blog since these few days.
Memang ada cerita nak diceritakan, but then I don't know why I feel that I have to postpone my postings.
Nanti laa...ada masa yang sesuai, aku update k?"

P/S: Why? Why? Why?

Short updates!

Dear Beautiful readers,

I know! I know! Some of you might wondering what has happened to me, rite? (or some might not even care or couldn't be bothered..)

Probably I am currently suffering from the writer's block?
Probably I am just plain lazy (or busy!)

Here are some short updates:
1) Demam: Still batuk2 & mere flu..My "voice" getting better!
2) Will not be at home during this long Deepa weekend (jeng...jeng..jeng! <-- wait for the next entry ya?)
3) Actually today aku cuti, purposely ambil annual leave and going for a car service shortly.

That's all folks...we'll keep in touch definitely

True - Spandau Ballet

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
So true funny how it seems
always in time, but never in line for dreams.
Head over heels when toe to toe.
This is the sound of my soul,this is the sound

I bought a ticket to the world,
but now I've come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
Oh I want the truth to be said

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh

I know this much is true

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh

I know this much is true
With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue
dissolve the nerves that have just begun
Listening to Marvin (all night long)
This is the sound of my soul,
this is the sound

Always slipping from my hands,
Sets a time of its own
Take your seaside arms and write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be known

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

I bought a ticket to the world,
but now I've come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
Oh I want the truth to be said

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
This much is true I know, I know, I know this much is true

Demam

Dear Beautiful Readers,

Aku batuk2 and having sorethroat since last weekend.

Suara pun dah serak2 basah...lain beb!

I was very busy too since last Friday and feeling a bit sleepy at work today.

Arghhh...I wish I have the mood to write, but bear with me...I'll write again, InsyaAllah.

Sorry

Dear Beautiful readers,

Lama dah aku tak update. Takde masa and a bit occupied skit skrang...
Nanti aku update kemudian, so sorry...

P/S: I am still live and kickin'! ;-)

Welcome on Board!

Dear Beautiful readers,

I wasn't in the office yesterday.

I was in KL (i didn't bring my laptop and so there's no blog posting)

My future boss (in the same Company but different division) wanted to meet me to discuss on my transfer matter. Yeah, she keep repeating that it is CONFIRMED that I am moving back to KL. Probably much sooner than i thought. November? Welcome on Board!

Errm...should i feel a bit relief on this issue? Errmm...I guess, I just wait and see, and of course, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Overall, everything went smoothly.

Met Kos for lunch (we had lunch at 4 p.m. and I was waiting for him at KL Sentral since 2 p.m!) We did discuss some of the "financial matters" and I guess I can rely on Kos to handle the "portfolios". Everything should be allright. At the same time, Kos brought me the fruit bon-bons bought in Harrods last time (I was supposed to collect it earlier but since we hadn't had much time to meet).

Oh, by the way, while waiting for Kos, there was a handicapped person in a wheelchair selling souvenirs. Errmm...initially i thought of not to buy the keychain but then well...i think there's no harm of doing good deed (of course we have to "bersangka baik" and don't pre-judge people). Who knows there will a good karma for me?

INSYALLAH..

P/S: By the way, on Thursday we had makan2 raya at work...here are some of the snapshots!

Tinggalkan aku

Katamu cinta t'lah tiada
Sendiri aku menahan pedih ini
Hilang semua rasa, habis begitu saja
Untuk bersama buat selamanya

Katamu dia yang lebih sempurna
Dialah di jiwa
Dia nafas asmara
Bisikan kata-kata akhirmu itu
Menusuk jiwaku
Kini kau datang untuk kembali
Padaku

Chorus:Pergi sudah tinggalkan aku
Ku tak ingin engkau ada
Kembali lagi ke dalam
Cerita hidupku ini
Kubahagia tanpa dirimu
Biar begini adanya aku (karna)
Tanpamu kutemukan sinarnya

Bisikan kata akhirmu itu
Menusuk jiwaku
Kini kau datang kembali
Padaku lagi

Bridge:Usah lagi kau guris hatiku
Ku tak mahu lagi
Merasakan hadirmu dalam duniaku
Pergilah dari hidupku

Back to Basic

Dear Beautiful Readers,

First day at work after cuti raya.

There's a new cute chic at work, originally from the same state as me i.e. my hometown.

I can't say that I was not in good mood to do my work, but the speed was not as I have expected earlier. Lots of things to do and have to rush here and there.

Left office quite early as I have to meet Abg Lan & Wati at one of the golf course nearby my place. We had the steamboat (it sucks anyway, but makan je laa...) and arrived home almost 9.

Esok aku rasa nak buat entry pasal mandi bunga (aku rasa cam kena curse recently...apsal eh?)

Mandi Bunga: Floral bath ritual, is very simple. The unwed woman / man purchases several types of fragrant flowers, coconut leaves, betel leaves, betel nuts, limau purut and okar sintok. The purchases are presented to the bomoh, Malay medicine man. He says an incantation over the ingredients. The ingredients are placed in a vessel of water. The bomoh scatters grains of uncooked rice around the maiden.

Raya

Dear Beautiful readers,

Raya hol was normal for me.

Nothing that significant. From my personal point of view, it's the time to strengthen the relationship with family members, friends, catching up on latest news of each other and so on.

And another thing is about "makan".

Unfortunately, this year, I haven't got the opportunity to try satay.

I had ketupat palas, lontong, nasi minyak, nasi dagang, kuzi ayam..but to no avail, no satay!

Fine then, takde rezeki kut..

I left my hometown on Saturday morning and thank God the journey was fine, although as expected there were many cars on the road, all the way to my current place in this northern region. Bonda packed me some food and thank God to that as I couldn't be bothered to find any makan place on the day since I arrived home about noon. It's lunch time baby!

Later that nite, T, E & Far came to my place for a simple pot luck.We had pizzas, choc cupcakes, kek lapis Sarawak, cookies, ketupat etc. There were only us left and other friends haven't arrived from their respective locations.

P/S: I am kinda missed that "smile"...urghh!

Pre Raya (Part 3)

Dear Beautiful readers,
Purposely I just wanted to show my bonda's simple cooking but delicious during one of my iftar at home before raya:

Pre Raya (Part 2)

Dear Beautiful Readers,

Just a few pics taken during makan2 with Che Man & Wan Maz @ Pantai Cinta Berahi.

POPIA Goreng @ KB Stadium

1st Top pic: Keropok lekor (mintak 3 batang tapi dia kasi 3 batang besar, mahu nya tak banyak! Fish balls mintak 5 biji tapi we thought that they gave us 5 sticks! so banyak!

2nd pic: Colek buah consists of pineapple, pomelo,guava, and mango. I only took guava, yang lain tuh mcm boleh buat tendency to diarrhea

Pre Raya (Part 1)

Dear Beautiful readers,

Sorry for the long silence.

But I managed to jot down few "notes" while being offline. Now it's time to upload it.Enjoy!

Sunday, 28th September 2008
Driving to my hometown early in the morning at 8 a.m. sharp.
Thank God the weather was OK, but I didn’t really expect that they were quite many cars on the road, not as the previous years that I can drive in peace.

Probably the timing wasn’t that right.
Expected to arrive home at 12ish, but due to major traffic jam at Tanah Merah & Pasir Mas, I ended up at home at 2ish. Nevermind, at least I arrived home in one piece!

Jalan Jam. Nampak tak signboard "Welcome To Kelantan" ada gambar Tok Guru

Had a wonderful iftar with mum, dad, Herry and my niece, Naj.

Later that night went out with Lin & Akram and we had late dinner at A&W. We had the usual “catching up” rituals and Lin just currently soooOooo into her new hobby, -> “professional photography”!

Monday, 29th September 2008
Right after sahur, I received text messages from Fakh.
After a few messages (while I was still daydreaming and in the midst of having short nap), we planned for an iftar later that day.

I had no idea where are we going to have our iftar. After consulting sis & Herry (and due to last minute arrangement), I managed to book a table for two at Grand Riverview Hotel – Riveira Café.

View of Sungai Kelantan from the cafe

Good food, nice ambience, and another “catching up” rituals with Fakh.
Yes, I haven’t met him for so long and I guess the last time I met him in KL were about 3-4 years back.

And yes, both of us changed!

Later after iftar, I accompanied Fakh for some last minutes shopping in the town. And again it was nice to do that.

And then, I was thinking about my “annual General meeting” with Che Man and the gang – i.e. Wan Maz & Jaz. Every raya, we had this get together session – minum2, “catching up rituals” etc in the town. Jaz couldn’t make it as he had some matters to be settled with family and ended up it’s only me, Che Man & Wan Maz. We ended up having tea in the stalls near the stadium and later we head to the Pantai Cahaya Bulan (formerly known as Pantai Cinta Berahi) for another drinks and “colek”. Another interesting nights, full of interesting topics, gossips etc etc.

Ended up going back home at 1.30 a.m. (no more curfew this time!)


P/S: Colek is a type of food, i think I can call it as snacks.

Tuesday, 30th September 2008.
It’s Reyna’s birthday and I did send her a birthday wish last night.
Nothing much happened at home. Only managed to assist mum doing the household chores and last minute shopping. Anyway, I didn’t manage to get the replacement for my original leather cover for my phone. I lost it during the night when I attended that charity program at work. Shit!

Couldn’t find it next day. Takde rezeki kut..Alhamdulillah

And I realized that today there’s unstoppable messages coming through my phone and of course, it’s RAYA! I wish my phone keep receiving not only during raya, but also during the normal days.

Another day dream of an average joe like me! ;-)
