He is a good husband
Who portrays how a loving and responsible
husband should be
Really love the way you treated Mama
The bond u two had was unbelievable
He's there...
A firm foundation,
A sturdy hand to hold to,
In times of stress and strife,
In times of fear and in sickness too.
He is a man of very few words
His dreams are seldom spoken
And so are his wants
Most of the time his worries
Will be kept unspoken too
He taught me lessons about life,
What's right and what's wrong.
And instilled in me values,
So I would be good and strong
"Kalau bercakap semata-mata nak menyakitkan hati orang..
baik tak payah bercakap"
Speak only when necessary, he said
so you won't hurt people's feelings
He never complains
What more to shout in anger
He takes things as they are
a very obliging person he is
It's been 4 years now since he was gone
they say we'll forget over time
but not me and my sis
the further he goes
the more he is missed
Sometimes I long to give him a call
To share my happiness, sorrow and all
To break exciting news about my children
Or to talk about issues of his interest
Suddenly I feel the chills run up through my spine
as I realize that he's no longer there...

Every mother in the world will be more than happy to see their children happily married n have wonderful children n family of their own..
I hate to think of it ..but soon I'll have to hand over my children to the people whom they have chosen. But when I gave it a deep thought..I know now that this is not going to be easy for me, Now I know how my mother must have felt when I told her " Ma, I met a guy..I love him so much and we are planning to get married. Hope you give us your blessings"...
When the time comes, I know I'm going to burst into joy..but to tell you the truth..deep down..I'm not really sure!! What really scares me is ... are they the kind of persons whom I can really trust, who can take over my responsibilities, who will shower my children with love, care and happiness, who will always be there in sickness and in health, who will guide my children and grandchildren through the right path of Allah..
To me, no matter how old you are, you are still my babies.Well, I guess I'm just being normal..protective..just want to be sure that all my children get the best out of everything, that's all. So...when it's time for me to GO, I can be absolutely 100% sure that all of you are left in good hands...only then, I can rest in peace...
It feels like it was just yesterday when I changed your diapers, nursed you, bathing & lathering you with soap, smothering your body with baby talcum powder, putting you to bed, tying up your shoes, sending you to school, watching you perform in your school concerts, breaking up your fights, tried to be a doctor when you guys really need one, putting 'bandaids' on your cut knees and many more priceless memories...Regardless of the hustle and bustle of bringing you guys up, I enjoyed every bit of it and I'm happy that I was given a chance to bring all of you up on my own..no regrets!!
I Know one day I have to let go of your hands....
When the time comes..I know each time I'll be excited, overwhelmed n happy on the outside..but there's still a tiny part in this mother's heart that will definitely sob and sob and sob...thinking that one by one a child is lost..

Apa pendapat anda tentang tindakan emaknya si Melur dan si Pekan? Merajuk sebab tak dapat makan telur ikan tembakul lalu lari bawak diri ke Batu Belah Batu Bertangkup.mesti ada yang mengatakan .."ee..tu orang tua mengada-ngada namanya", "sikit punya hal pun nak dibesar-besarkan", "dengan anak sendiri pun nak amik ati", "dengan budak kecik pun nak berkira" dan macam-macam lagi lah persepsi negatif yang keluar dari kotak pemikiran kita.
Pernah tak anda lalui situasi seumpamanya? Dimana kita memang dah berangan gila-gila nak makan sesuatu tapi tak dapat. Sedih giler kowt!! To me, bab-bab makanan dan makan ni, sangat sensitif. Contohnya, kalau ada orang ajak kita makan, kita pun tunggu dan dah siap simpan perut untuk makan, tunggu punya tunggu, sekali rupanya dia lupa dah jamji nak makan dgn kita, dia gi makan dgn group lain pulak! Rasa nak menitik air mata dibuatnya!
Another example, kita bagi suggestion nak makan sesuatu tapi tak di indahkan pun. Buat tukar topik la, bila kita minta tolong orang belikan, dia seolah-olah aaaa..macam ada hesitation disitu..PERGH!! Lagi sedih!!
Ada plak kengkadang, orang ni dah tahu kita lapar, sebab kita dari tadi asyik dok bercerita pasal perut kita yang keroncong ni. Boleh dia call kwn sorang lagi yg sedang mkn kat kantin tu dan order food untuk dia sorang jer. Kot la nak offer "Tadi akak kata akak lapar kan, akan nak mkn apa? Saya minta si..belikan, nak tak?" Ni tak, tak perihatin betul!!
AAARGHH!!
I don't know about you, but to me, when it comes to food, someone being hungry, ianya akan terus menyentuh sanubari. Don't know why..but i'm very sensitive to it. I would say that emaknya si Pekan, dah susah payah pergi menangguk ikan, cari makan utk anak2, all she asked for was telur ikan tembakul tu jer. Itu pun anak dia tak boleh nak fulfillkan.Sedih...
So, tolak tepi soal agama dan rasional yang waras, ada orang yang dah pergi Batu Belah Batu Bertangkup dah semalam!! hhhhmmmmm..ntah laa.. :(

What you wrote was really awesome..a confession I truely respect..
Why is it always My First Born?..
Coz the first pregnancy had significantly changed my life..
and My First Born certainly has brought me a new, enlightened and joyful life!!!
The bond we created from my womb to the day you were born..
Is a mother and daughter bind that can never be torn
You are as precious as a flower and as gorgeous as a rose
You have been specially made to the very tip of your nose
You are brighter than any star in the sky every time you smile
When times seem too hard to bear & I l feel like giving up..
I vision your beautiful face, the twinkle of your eyes, the first step you made and the first time you called me "Mama"
With the strength and guidance of Allah and the blessings He pours down from above
I want to be the best mom I can be to you and embrace you with all my love
I will always be your mother first, but I'm also your friend
You are the most precious gift, that I've ever been given
Wouldn't want to have you out of my sight
Protect you from any danger, even from a tiny mosquito bite
Try to put in as much as I could
Make sure you get everything that you should
What frightens me the most is..I won't be around forever
To ensure your safety and well being
I want you to be proud of who you are and strive to be the best
Put forth your efforts to achieve your goals and let Allah do the rest
Only when your life is complete and have a wonderful family of your own..
I know I can close my eyes and Rest In Peace...
Always remember my feelings towards you and how significant and important you are to me, even when i am no longer around..
With All My Love,
Mama
Thinking about our good times
Slept with tears in my eyes
Wondering what did I do wrong...?

Though You Have Grown...
Shima...
I remember 25 years ago,
you were so tiny then.
Sometimes,
I can't help but wish,
that you were small again.
I've cried when you've faced heartaches,
and have learned, that as you grew,
you've developed confidence,
and strength of your own.
I'm filled with mixed emotions,
as I hold back all the tears
thinking that the time will come,
when I shall let go of your hands.
When I first held you in my arms,
if only I'd have known,
the years would feel like moments,
after you had grown.
Now..you aren't a child anymore,
though in my eyes,
I guess you'll always be,
that baby girl who had changed my life,
and means the world to me.
you were so tiny then.

Amaran pada Kaum Wanita dan kepada sumer kaum perempuan yang memandu, Kes ni betul2 menakutkan.
This is something I got from a friend of mind..scary..
Kesah ini betul2 terjadi kat Penang
Ingat lagi tak dgn kes Ms Canny Ong yang dirogol dan dibunuh??
Kisah nya..ada seorang perempuan ni berhenti dekat stesen gas "pay-at-the-pump" untuk isi minyak..sebaik saja dia siap isi minyak tu dan nak beredar,seorang pekerja kat situ buat pngumuman yang kad kredit perempuan ni ada problem sikit..pekerja tu suruh perempuan ni masuk ke dalam untuk bayar..tapi perempuan ni confused la sebab transaksi menunjukkan yang pembayaran kad kredit dia diluluskan dan tak ada masaalah apa2 pun.. so perempuan tu bagitau la pekerja tu dan dia pun bersedia nak beredar ke kereta dia balik..tapi pekerja tu tetap bertegas dan suruh dia masuk dalam..perempuan tu pun decided untuk masuk ke dalam...sebaik aje dia masuk kat dalam..dia mula marah kat pekerja tu..
lalu pekerja tu suruh dia bertenang dan bagitau hal sebenarnya.. .nak tau apa?
sebenarnya masa perempuan tu dok isi minyak,pekerja tu nampak ada laki menyelinap kat belakang kereta perempuan tu dan pekerja tu dah pun telepon polis..
perempuan tu pun apalagi, takut la..dia pun try intai dan dia nampak pintu kereta dia terbuka dan lelaki tu keluar dari kereta dia..
Sekarang ni..ada laporan yg mengatakan yg sekang ni ada gang yang amik body part orang pompuan..salah satu cara diorang adalah dgn menyelinap masuk kereta ornag perempuan masa perempuan tu tengah pump gas atau beli barang kat kedai TGH2 MLAM!!
kemudian,dia orang akan potong kaki perempuan tu untuk memudahkan diorang culik dan bunuh perempuan tu..
satu cara lagi pulak,dia orang akan masuk kedalam kereta yg tak ada orang dan tak berkunci kemudian culik perempuan tu dan bunuh dia orang.Semalam pun ada Crime Investigation di Astro menceritakan kes yg sama di Hong Kong . Tapi perlakunya adalah pemandu teksi yang mengambil penumpang perempuan selepas lepas tengan malam. Memang ngeri.
Sila panjangkan kisah ini pada sesiapa yg anda kenali.
Bagi kaum perempuan elakkan keluar bersaorangan diwaktu malam.
P/S: amalkanlah suratul kursi.. dan berdoalah dan meminta perlindungan dariNya.. insyaAllah.. perlindunganNya akan sentiasa pd hamba-hamba Nya yang meminta padaNya..

Islam adalah satu agama yang sangat menitik beratkan tatacara dan peradaban di dalam segenap aspek kehidupan harian. Nak makan ada adabnya, nak tidor ada adabnya, nak sembahyang ada tertib dan adabnya malah nak keluar masuk bilik air pun ada adabnya.
Sepatutnya dengan nilai-nilai agama dan nilai-nilai ketimuran yang sanat cantik ini, kita sepatutnya menjadi bangsa contoh tetapi mana perginya nilai adab dan sopan orang-orang kita? Orang kita sombong dan penting diri sendiri. Lihat saja di jalanraya..? Bawak kenderaan macam dia sorang je yang ada di atas jalanraya pada waktu itu. Aku nak bagi signal ka tak nak bagi signal ka..itu aku punya pasal la..tak ada lansung persaan nak mengalah atau beri laluan pada orang lain. Selfish!! Tanda YIELD lansung tak releven pada pemandu-pemandu kita. Agaknya dia faham tak apa maksud YIELD tu? Kalau tak faham pon, kalau dari segi logik dan peradaban, kalau kita dari jalan kecik nak masuk jalan utama mestilah bagi laluan pada kenderaan di jalan utama. Ini tidak, kalau dapat ciluk dia ciluk, sampai kenderaan di jalan utama pulak yang kena mengelak! Hish!! Tak ada lansung istilah 'mengalah' pada orang-orang macam ni.
Kalau kita tengok pulak semasa nak masuk ke dalam pejabat atau pun bank..jarang ada yang tolong pegangkan pintu itu supaya orang dibelakang dapat masuk dengan mudah. Jauh sekali kalau nak cepat-cepat tolong bukakan pintu dan bagi kaum wanita atau orang lain masuk dahulu. Kadang-kadang tu (pernah terjadi pada diri saya sendiri) bila saya tolak pintu untuk keluar ada makhluk mencelah masuk dari depan!! Lelaki pulak tuh !! Punya malas nak tarik handle pintu, pas tu buat muka tak bersalah..SIUTT!! Apalah salahnya..tunggu kita keluar dulu atau pun better still, tunggu orang dari dalam keluar dulu, pas tu tolong la pegangkan pintu tu dan bila orang dah keluar, ko masuklah. Dekat lif pun macam tu lah..tunggu la orang keluar dulu baru ko nak masuk..eeeee!!
Dekat mesin ATM lagi satu masalah..ader jer tong sampah kat situ..tapi slip transaksi bersepah-sepah bertaburan di atas lantai!! Kalau semua orang ambil resit tu dan simpan dalam poket (kalau malas nak bubuh dalam tong samapah)..tak perlu ada tong sampah pun kat situ.. BO...H!!
Orang yang jaga kaunter pertanyaan atau cashier di pasaraya kena la ada adab sopan pertuturan, sentiasa senyum. Cakap la perkara yang menyenangkan hati pelanggan. Contohnya kalau mat salleh tu mesti dia cakap "Yes, how can I help you sir?" "thank you maam and have a nice day!" atau pun bila tiba musim perayaan, bukan dekat kaunter jer, bila berselisih pun mereka akan senyum dan wish "Merry Christmas!!" Ini tidak bila kita kata selamat hari raya kat dia..dia buat derk jer!! BE...G!
Banyak lag perkara-perkara yang sangat menyakitkan hati..malas nak cakap..nanti naik darah pulak. Benda-benda ni semuanya simple jer tapi kita tak boleh buat..bukanya susah nak senyum, nak buang sampah di tempat yang sepatutnya, nak tolong bukakan pintu untuk orang...tapi sikap sesetengah manusia yang bebal..bodoh tak boleh diajar, cerdik tak boleh diikut!! Hai bila la kaum kita ni nak bertamaddun..ahli politik yang berkedudukan tinggi pun bergaduh macam orang tak bersekolah..macam orang tak berpelajaran!! Tak malu!! Tak segan dengan budak-budak ka?? Macam tu ka nak jadi pemimpin???? Orang macam ni ka kita nak jadikan role model??? OF COURSE NOT!!

We couldn't see what's coming, could we...?
During the toughest of times we stood together! When the bad weather hits us straight on, we managed to get through that rough storm. We held each other with tight grip and that each one of us did not slip. For that rough weather took us on, tried to tear us apart one by one.
During the toughest of times we stood together! When the bad weather hits us straight on, we managed to get through that rough storm. We held each other with tight grip and that each one of us did not slip. For that rough weather took us on, tried to tear us apart one by one.
Family, we held on to each other with all our might! And when that bad weather hit us straight on, we got through and still standing as a family, strong!
We wouldn't know what will happen next, would we..?
Well..there is nothing more painful in life than having to watch fights between family members or between close friends (like family). I mean fights between parents who are married or divorced, or between siblings, or even between closest friends. There is nothing more bitter than watching people who once loved each other say painful things to one another. Family members or closest friends know each other better than anyone else. They know each others' vulnerabilities and can hurt each other in the most painful ways. So, before you say something to a family member, no matter how much you think that they deserve it, remember, the pain of the memory of this encounter will last much longer than the satisfaction of a happy moment shared. Not to mention the damage that can be done if you show your feelings of distrust and making bad accusations.
We wouldn't know what will happen next, would we..?
We don't like what had happened, do we...?
A lesson learned.
So, next time, be sure to look before you leap...think before you speak...

A Thank You Note
Some teachers..we love them because of their excellent knowledge
and taught us right from wrong,
Some teachers..we love them because they set good example,
a good model, an icon
Some teachers..we love them because they are friendly
or can even be a shoulder to cry on
Some teachers..we love them because they are sincere,
and never expect any reward
Some teachers..we love them because they are honest
Some teachers..we love them simply because they care
I love all the teachers who have taught me through out the years of my life,
All of you have contributed and are responsible for my achievements
Thank You TEACHERS may Allah bless all of you
But there's one teacher
whose presence I can still feel
whose words of wisdom I can still hear
whose spirit always keeps me strong
who had all the qualities I mentioned above
whom I will always love, respect, treasure and miss..
My Dad..Cikgu Mohd. Sidi,
Happy Teacher's Day, Pa
You're the best teacher and the best father in the whole wide world
With all the effort you have put in
With all the sacrifices you have made
With all the affection and love you have given
As a teacher as well as a father,
Allah bestow upon you his blessings
And may you rest in peace..amin

5 S
IKM KL is working hard for its 5 S certification from MPC (Malaysian Productivity Corporation).
Well, some might not know what is 5 S..so let me share a little bit of info about 5 S here..
'5S' is the name of a workplace organization methodology that uses a list of five Japanese words which are Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu and Shitsuke. The list describes how items are stored and how the new order is maintained. The decision making process usually comes from a dialogue about standardization which builds a clear understanding among employees of how work should be done. It also instills ownership of the process in each employee.
Phase 1 (Seiri/ Sort/ Sisih) :
To sort and systematically discard items which are not needed at the workplace.
Emmm..that's easy..:) I can think of loads of things at home that can or rather should be discarded..ha ha..
Phase 2 (Seiton/ Set in order/ Susun) :
To arrange necessary items in a neat and systematic manner so that they can easily be retrieved and returned to the designated places (place for everything and everything at its plac Everything is labeled, tagged, color-coded or numbered. Easy to find, easy to notice when something is missing, easy to spot when something is out of place.
Phase 3 (Seiso/ Shine/Susun) :
To clean and inspect workplace regularly and thoroughly so that there is no dirt on the floor, machines and equipments. Clean and healthy life style !!
Phase 4 : (Seiketsu / Standardise/ Seragam) :
To maintain a high standard of workplace organization by keeping everything clean and orderly at all times.
Phase 5 : (Shitsuke/ Sustain/ Sentiasa Amal) :
To train people to comply with the quality environment system continuously so that it becomes habitual and ingrained in the culture of organization.
That's basically what 5 S is all about. It is actually about simple everyday practices which should have been inculcated into children in their early age, so that they will turn out to be very systematic and more organized people. Good practices like these should begin in homes first. Later enhanced in schools. Then, be sustained in workplace.
It's all about clean, safe and condusive environment, efficient and effective as well as time and cost savings.
Well, some might not know what is 5 S..so let me share a little bit of info about 5 S here..

The list describes how items are stored and how the new order is maintained. The decision making process usually comes from a dialogue about standardization which builds a clear understanding among employees of how work should be done. It also instills ownership of the process in each employee.
Phase 1 (Seiri/ Sort/ Sisih) :
To sort and systematically discard items which are not needed at the workplace.
Emmm..that's easy..:) I can think of loads of things at home that can or rather should be discarded..ha ha..
Phase 2 (Seiton/ Set in order/ Susun) :
To arrange necessary items in a neat and systematic manner so that they can easily be retrieved and returned to the designated places (place for everything and everything at its plac Everything is labeled, tagged, color-coded or numbered. Easy to find, easy to notice when something is missing, easy to spot when something is out of place.
Phase 3 (Seiso/ Shine/Susun) :
To clean and inspect workplace regularly and thoroughly so that there is no dirt on the floor, machines and equipments. Clean and healthy life style !!
Phase 4 : (Seiketsu / Standardise/ Seragam) :
To maintain a high standard of workplace organization by keeping everything clean and orderly at all times.
Phase 5 : (Shitsuke/ Sustain/ Sentiasa Amal) :
To train people to comply with the quality environment system continuously so that it becomes habitual and ingrained in the culture of organization.
That's basically what 5 S is all about. It is actually about simple everyday practices which should have been inculcated into children in their early age, so that they will turn out to be very systematic and more organized people. Good practices like these should begin in homes first. Later enhanced in schools. Then, be sustained in workplace.
It's all about clean, safe and condusive environment, efficient and effective as well as time and cost savings.
To My First Born
What you wrote was really awesome..a confession I truely respect..
Why is it always My First Born?..
Coz the first pregnancy had significantly changed my life..
and My First Born certainly has brought me a new, enlightened and joyful life!!!
The bond we created from my womb to the day you were born..
Is a mother and daughter bind that can never be torn
You are as precious as a flower and as gorgeous as a rose
You have been specially made to the very tip of your nose
You are brighter than any star in the sky every time you smile
When times seem too hard to bear & I l feel like giving up..
I vision your beautiful face, the twinkle of your eyes, the first step you made and the first time you called me "Mama"
With the strength and guidance of Allah and the blessings He pours down from above
I want to be the best mom I can be to you and embrace you with all my love
I will always be your mother first, but I'm also your friend
You are the most precious gift, that I've ever been given
Wouldn't want to have you out of my sight
Protect you from any danger, even from a tiny mosquito bite
Try to put in as much as I could
Make sure you get everything that you should
What frightens me the most is..I won't be around forever
To ensure your safety and well being
I want you to be proud of who you are and strive to be the best
Put forth your efforts to achieve your goals and let Allah do the rest
Only when your life is complete and have a wonderful family of your own..
I know I can close my eyes and Rest In Peace...
Always remember my feelings towards you and how significant and important you are to me, even when i am no longer around..
With All My Love,
Mama

Thinking about our good times
Slept with tears in my eyes
Wondering why did it happen...?
Slept with tears in my eyes
Wondering why did it happen...?
Thinking about our good times
Slept with tears in my eyes
Wondering what did I do wrong...?
Still thinking about our good times
Woke up with tears still in my eyes
Was it too much to ask for...?
Woke up with tears still in my eyes
Was it too much to ask for...?
But...
Now I see
I'm too late
Too late to ask
Someday... I will never ask again
Someday... it will never happen again
Never ever again!
I'm too late
Too late to ask
Someday... I will never ask again
Someday... it will never happen again
Never ever again!

Yes indeed, yesterday was one of the days that I would save in my Sweet-Memories folder.
Started quite early in the morning, along with Shasha, into the kitchen. Shasha made the steamed kaya n butter bread!! Mmmmmm delicious!! After breakfast - Preparation mode - spaghetti!! Everybody in the family loves spaghetti except Shima..not quite a fan la. Bell Pepper, yellow onions, lots of mushrooms, ground beef and of course Prego sauce!! all together in a big pot!!! 3 packets of spaghetti. Banyaknya!!! Bole ke abis nih?
After having the sauce cooked with full of love, Shasha began to cook her specialty..Cream Caramel!!! Which is also our family craze! Syafiq arrived. Havent seen him since Hari Raya. Welcome Syafiq!! Then Kamal Fahmi arrived. Welcome Fahmi. The table is set and we were then ready to dine...
ROUND 1. The effort really paid off as I noticed how much they enjoy and appreciate your meal!! Puas hati...
Pencuci mulut..limau tangerine, best, manis-manis masam...hhhaaauuuk kenyang!!
I retired inti our bedroom and had a 5-minute nap while the kids continued to chat and watch tv in the family room. At around 4 pm, we all went out in NAZA to TUDM Muzeum. Syafiq and Shima enjoyed taking pictures since both of them are really into photography. Spent about one hour there. Danish sure enjoyed sitting in the cockpits and daydream about being a fighter pilot! We were lucky coz on the way back home, it poured like hell. When we reached home, guess what we did?...
ROUND 2. Heated up the spaghetti sauce. Din, Shasha cooked her second Cream Caramel. Din, Syikin and Along arrived, just in time.....
After maghrib we sent Fahmi back, Syafiq, Syikin, Din and Along pun balik...
Alhamdulillah..rasa bahagia dan tenang sekali bila dapat bersama-sama anak2 dan kawan2 mereka. Really enjoyed their company and looking forward to their next visit..perhaps a mini family bowling tournament...:)))

Ragut...
Kalau masa zaman Mama sekolah dulu...perkataan RAGUT ni selalunya digunakan untuk 'lembu ragut rumput', 'kambing ragut pucuk jambu', 'padang ragut'.... Tapi sekarang RAGUT dah sinonim dengan manusia...mungkin manusia yang otaknya sama mcm haiwan yg bernama lembu atau kambing.
Aik..!!?? Bila plak Alang Jay pi bergambar kat padang ragut nih?? Macam tahu2 jer Mama nak cerita pasal padang ragut....
Lately ni, kejadian ragut dah menjadi-jadi sehingga ada yang menyebabkan kematian! Siut betul demer ney!! Nak duit cara mudah dan cepat..samun orang, ragut beg tangan orang! Ragut nyawa dia baru tau!!
Minggu lepas, ari Selasa, kawan Mama was driving home from school, stopped kat traffic light in Pandan Jaya, tetiba datang satu kereta Kancil berenti tepi kereta dia. Keluar la si mamat Melayu ni, dgn menggunakan bata, dia pecahkan cermin kereta kawan Mama tu (sebelah penumpang hadapan...where she put her handbag). Grabbed the handbag and fled off. Sakit ati dengar kan???
Dua hari lepas plak, dengar cerita kawan Mama (jiran sebelah rumah masa kat Kuchig), skang tinggal di MINDEF, pun kena samun dgn cara yang sama. Tried to call her to get the exact story but couldn't reach her until today.
So, to all the ladies out there, please be extra careful and be more alert of your surrounding especially when you are traveling alone. For those muslim ladies, before stepping out of the house make sure u recite ayat Kursi at least once..insyaAllah, we will be protected by Allah all the time....

...and they live happily ever after
Semasa lunch hour...
Hari ni I've decided not to go anywhere..so, just hang around the office. Switched off the lights and one of the air-conds (ini mmg langkah penjimatan pejabat). Since Facebook dah kena block..I checked my e-mails, read online news, tgk MARA nyer web..kot2 ada apa2 yg new and interesting.
Rasanya hidup sangat boring tanpa Facebook..feels like you've been cut off from the world that is moving around you. Jadi serba tak kena rasanya. Kejam betul depa yang sekat Facebook ney!!! FB bukanya ganggu pon..infact it is one easy way to stay connected to family, members, friends sand colleagues all the time ... while working!! The wonderful thing about FB is...it's free!!!! Well ada jer smart ass yg tak boleh tengok orang senang..
However..as a normal human being, yang mana orang tak bagi tu, yang tu la lagi rasa nak buat kan..? Yesterday tried FB through BTunnel.com..dapat, tapi slow gilller! So, ari ni, one of my English teachers, Salman, suggested that I buy this device to be plugged in to my PC and this device should be able to connect with his broadband (in the teachers' room, upstairs). He will then upgrade his broadband and those sharing will share paying the monthly charges of his broadband. Sounds really good..so let's give it a try!! Nak block sangat.....pppiiiiirrrrrah!!! Hengat haku tak ghetti buat cara len ka??? Lu pikir la sendri!!!
Anyway, Salman has not yet return from Low Yat...hope the plan works and all of us here can enjoy FB again and live happily ever after!!!!
Lambat sangat si Salman ni pon...tidoq lagi baguihh!

Santai...
Starting midnight last last nite, the Hindus gatthered along the path where Dewa Murugan is expected to pass by on its way to Batu Caves. Jalan Ipoh is definitely affected by this float. I decided to take leave and stay home rather than getting stuck in a mass of pre-Thaipissam celebration. The Indian God is scheduled to arrive at our stretch of Jalan Ipoh around 6.30 to 9.00.
Staying home will give me a chance of spending the time with the kids, watch TV and bla bla bla...
Goreng cucok ikan bilis for breakfast..1kg tepung!! Selosai!!
Emmm..tak leh nak gi pasar...so masak nasi goreng ajer laaaa.
Awan dah mendung nak ujan..anta Danish gi sekolah. Wah ari ni siap pakai baju Melayu tuuuu...Mama tido kul 2 pagi alter seluar baju Melayu Danish. Punya tak dan dan nak pakai...
Dia kata best pakai baju melayu pi sekolah sebab rasa macam pahlawan!!! Ape-ape jer la Danish...asalkan ko nak pegi sekolah.
Lepas makan nasi goreng cincai (rencah ketam fingers and eggs) sambil tgk Pelican Brief..tak sedar satu pinggan gedebak nasi goreng ku belasah! Haish!! Tak pa! Malam ni pi pocho2 shake it all off!!!
HUJAN!!! Aiyo lebatnya..sgt lebat! Wonder mcm mana la agaknya orang-orang kat batu Caves tu sekarang ni...
Eeee sejuknya ujan..best ni kalau tarik comforter...Sian Danish...kena gi sekolah ujan-ujan cam ni.
Sat nak pi zzzzzzzzzz...

Back to work after two days of MC. Since I'm still not feeling well, selera nak makan pun tak ada. so just sit around and prepare master timetable for my teachers. Request for the dates that they want me to observe them in their classes. Decided not to go for breakfast coz ain't got no appetite. By 9.30 everybody was busy getting ready to receive a group of people from Germany and Abu Dhabbi. They are here for a short visit. Welcome to IKM KL people!! Hope you find this visit very useful and relevant to your objectives.
Then..back to work. I can still feel my body aches, my flue getting worse...feel like going home. Despite all that, I continued searching for good articles to be adapted and to be published in our bulletin. Since the internet was out since morning, I had to hunt for the articles manually, reading through a few magazines. Then the Internet came around at about lunch time. After that, I went out with a friend to the cafe for lunch. Didn't take much..just a half bowl of rice and soup....
Lepas solat, back to work..still don't feel like doing anything..Tetiba teringat pasal ayam hutan yang orang bagi hari minggu baru2 ni..
Hari minggu yang lalu ada kawan datang hantar ayam hutan 4 ekor (dah di sembelih dan dah di basuh siap). Ni la first time nak masak dan makan ayam hutan. Tapi tadi Papa dah suruh tukang masak mess masakan, so tak payah mama susah2 nak masak kang..mama pun tak berapa sihat. Kata orang sedap..tapi nanti malam ni lepas makan I'll inform you ya.
K lah ada kejer sket..tak sabar nak mkn Rendang Ayam Hutan..

Dalam Telur Ada...
Terkejut betul bila mendengarkan cerita kawan ku.. cerita mengenai kerja jahat manusia kepada manusia lain, yang menggunakan bantuan syaitan...SIHIR!! Proses berubat menggunakan telur..pesakit disuruh menggenggam sebiji telur fresh, sementara ayat2 quran dibaca.. Kemudian, telur di pecahkan kedalam sebuah mangkuk jernih. Pada mula nya tiada apa2 yg ganjil kelihatan tapi secara perlahan-lahan sebentuk jarum berwarna keemasan, muncung jarum berwarna hitam kesan dibakar, panjang 1 inci muncul ditengah2 kuning telur itu. Tujuan jahat, niat merosakkan yg akhirnya menyebabkan maut!I sh ish ish...tak guna sembahyang tak tinggal tapi berhati busuk hingga sanggup buat apa saja...

Khasiat Buah Belimbing Besi
Carambola or starfruit or Belimbing Besi is the fruit of Averrhoa carambola, a species of tree native to Malaysia, Indonesia,India and Sri Lanka. The tree and its fruit are popular throughout South East Asia, the South Pacific and other parts of East Asia.
Carambola is rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, and low in sugar, sodium and acid.Carambola is a fairly complex fruit with many benefits like strawberries, but a small percent of the human population should be cautious of the fruit for health reasons.
Like the grapefruit, carambola contains oxalic acid which can be harmful to individuals suffering from kidney failure or under kidney dialysis treatment. Consumption by those with kidney failure can produce hiccups, vomiting, nausea, and mental confusion.
Oooo dasyat tuh...becareful ya you people out there..
Today a friend of mine told me that this fruit has another benefit that most of us didn't know about...It can be used as a repellent to measles or even chicken pox. How? She said, just put a few starfruits leaves in a basin or a pail or a bath water container then bathe using the water. It provides a cooling sensation. Nobody knows how it really works as a repellent to chicken pox, but we can always give it a try... wallahu a'lam..
Yang pastinya...kalau blend, campur ice cubes dan minum....mmm heaven!!

Kisah Saya Punya Pet
Ahmad Izzul Danish really enjoys reading. Mama bought him a whole set of books by Grolier Co. Very interesting books. so he will pick up any books and every nite while in bed, after saying his bedtime prayers, he'll choose a book from the rack and read himself to sleep. I guess from there interest to write builds up. He is also very observant and is always alert...noticing every single details of his surroundings. And..this the one of the product of his observaion..Please note that 'magerep' is actually 'maghrib', 'air kon', 'rimot' which is actually 'remote'...may be bole buka blog utk dia write whatever comes to his mind...
Danish..Danish...
Ini maksud sebenarnya..
Pada suatu hari, ada kucing saya bermain di luar rumah. Lepas maghrib, dia pun balik masuk rumah. Lepas itu, dia suruh kakak saya pasang aircond. Kakak saya pon mengambil remote aircond itu. Lepas itu dia tidur sampai 10 am. Dia bangun, dia tenung kiri dan kanan, dia pon berjalan. Sekejap lagi dia terasa lapar, dia menjerit meaw..! Habis.

First Family Trip in 2010
Selepas subuh bersantai sambil tengok News on tv dalam bilik. Bermaalasan..planning dalam kul 8.30 kang, asa usual gi breakfast and pergi pasar berdua. Tetiba Papa kata "Nak gi Alor Setar tak?". Ish Papa ni biar betul semalam anak2 ajak..kata tak nak, dok umah lagi best. Tetiba lak nak gi. Mama pun apalagi memang mood nak gi jalan2 dok bersemarak dari semalam lagi..terus la jawab nak!! Papa pun terus call this Chalet (got the number from a fren) and made reservations..siap nak amik 2 chalet lagi, but I said one enough la kot coz there are 2 rooms. Chalet terapong katanya! Kat area Sembeling, Sg. Petani. Terapong pun terapong laaa..janji berjalan. Shima agak cuak disitu apabila mendengar perkataan 'terapong'..creepy dia kata. So, again, asa usual Papa akan teriak "20 minit..tayar bergolek!!!". Maknanya, kami kena la bersiap dalam masa 20 minit! Apa lagi semua melompat bangun and as usual...managed to get ready on time! Amazing kan?
Our cats, especially Ahmad Russel sensed that they will be left behind. Russel..muka dah lain mcm dah...asyik mengekor Shasha and Shima...mungkin nak kata "Nak ikut ble?" Sian Ahmad Russel kena tinggai!! Gedebak gedebuk, masukkan barang dalam kereta, dgn comforter, dgn bantal busuk masing2..kreta papa dah penuh macam kapal haji. Papa plaks siap bwk 3 rod pancing..nk memancing kat chalet terapong la katakan...So bertolak dari rumah araound 9.50.
Perjalanan lancar, tak byk kereta atas highway. Papa bwk relex2 110km/hr (biasa la Mat Skima)...Papa will never drive exceeding the speed limit. Kami stop kat R&R Tapah. Orang punya la ramai!!! Papa, mama dan Danish grabbed a table and makan mee kari, Papa pny mknana wajib kalau berhenti kat Tapah.. Shima, Shida, Shasha and Alin..pi makan KFC. Semua dah kenyang..after 20 minits, kami sambung journey. Semua excited and tak sabar nak santai kat Chalet terapong tuh...
Perjalanan lancar, semua tak tido kecuali Danish..eh ke ade yg lain yg tido...mm ntah la tak perasan. Sepanjang jalan dok bersembang, tak perasan sapa yg tak join kecuali Danish. Anyways...sampai SP around 4 pm..tunggu Dasri jap kat GIANT, Jln Sg Pasir. Dasri datang terus tuju ke chalet terapong tu..Jerai View nama tempat tu...tgk jer tempat tuuu, tersentot sket coz tmpt tu mask agak ke pendalaman, no shops nearby and the worst thing is once you are transported to the chalet, air surut, you kena tunggu sehingga air pasang semula keesokkan harinya untuk naik bot semula utk balik ke tanah besar. Oh TIDAK!!!! Everybody except Papa and Danish said NO to chalet terapong. So Papa reluctantly..ikut ckp kitorang. Cari tempat lain. Bye!!
So kitorang pon sambung perjalanan ke Sg. Petani...the best part is..Papa bwk kami masuk Kem Lapangan Terbang..tgk umah lama..nostalgia nyer! tapi sedih tengok condition umah tu yg mcm tak berjaga. Keluar dari Kem ikut pintu belakang, terus stop kat Swiss Inn, i like it here coz the pool is awesome. So, checked in 2 rooms. Danish terus insisted to jump into the pool right away...so kasi chan laaa. Kakak2 pon teruja tgk pool tapi tak bwk attire, so kena gi beli swimming attire la plaks..nasib baik Tesco dekat ja. Petang tu dihabiskan dgn bermalasan di tepi pool sambil makan french fries and watermelon juice sambil tgk anak2 mandi kolam.
Lepas maghrib, kami keluar makan di jam besar bersama Dasri sekeluarga. Makan nasi dg sup gear box, ada yg makan mee hoon sup, ada yg makan yong taufu, ada yang makan nasi goreng ikan masin...yg pastinya..memang SEDAAAAP!! Pas tu kami belarak plak ke rumah Papa nyer ex-driver, Abang Mi. Rindu nyer dgn famili tuu..lama tak jumper. As usual, Kak Zan, the wife memang akan jamu laksa..best giler!! Makan lagi! Mak ai..kenyang..mcm anaconda dah kami smua!! After chatting 4 quite a while, agak2 dah reda sket rindu, kami pun minta diri to retire 4 the day..PENAT gilos! Esok pagi2 dah nak bertolak ke Alor setar plaks..makan kenduri plak. Makan lagiiii! Selalunya lauk kenduri belah2 utara ni, memang best. So, alor Setar here we come!
Lepas subuh Papa, Mama, Danish and Shasha siap2 dan turun breakfast. yang lain2 tu..biasa la, pese tak makan pagi. Eh, ke pesen tak bgn pagi..either or applies lah. Breakfast kat hotel, then the 4 of us keluar round2 kat SP. Mula2 gi cari kwn papa dekat pasar Sg Lalang. Terharunya dia, tak sangka Papa cari dia after all this years. Pas tu gi cari umah cikgu Fatimah (cikgu Shasha masa darjah 6)..tapi dia tak ada di rumah.la plak. Tak ada rezeki nak jumpak..but the thought that counts. Pas tu nak sambung jalan2, lalu depan umah Jaja's beloved uncle...siap suruh shasha tangkap gambar..nk send kat Jaja..ahaks..
Balik hotel, Danish's another swimming episode..sampai kul 11.15 jer. Pas tu naik siap2 utk pegi kenduri.
Sampai di tmpt kenduri..as expected, lauk kari daging dia...PERGH!!! Sedap gilos!! Air nyira..lagi la SEDAP!! Mama broke all her diet rules and belasah the food! After kenduri, ada lagi sati mission...nak jumpa Shasha nyer very dear fren, Ezah! Nak jumpa kat mana ek? Tempat paling senang..Menara Alor Setar. so we went there and jumpa la budak Ezah tu. Hugged her and kissed her..missed her so..Papa bought tickets to go up the tower..so we did.
Lepas tu ingat nak terus push off ke SP...tp si Toain sibuk suruh pi umah dia jugak2. Tak nak menghampakan Toain, kami pun pi la umah dia...disitu kami di jamu Pulut Udang dan Tepung Bungkus panas!!! PERGH!! Sedap nyer!! One taste i won't forget! Toain!! Nak kueh tu lagi ble?!! Lepas kekenyangan buat kali yg keberapa ntah..kami pun bertolak ke SP....
Again kerana tak nak menghampakan orang, kami singgah plak kat umah Dasri. Lepas solat makan lagi. Kali ni makan Laksa Teluk Kecai yg famous tuu!! THE BEST LAKSA I HAVE EVER TASTED!!! serious, sedap ya amat! Lepas makan laksa yg sedap itu, lepas freshenup, lepas solat..kami pun bertolak balik ke KL.
Selamat sampai ke KL jam 1.15 am!!
The unplanned, short trip turned out to be a very enjoyable and memorable trip ever! What a start 2010!!!
Hopfully there will be many more happy and interesting trips like this for us to enjoy and treasure in the whole of 2010 and many years ahead!!!
