oldpren

It was such a feeling..when you stumbled upon an old friend..
classmate in school..haven't seen her for ..like 10 years..
and she didn't look any different ..just the same her..
prettier perhaps..

arghh..and i got the same comment..
over and over again..


"apsal makin kurus??"

the question that i will never answer anymore..
tired of it.. coz actually i don't know why..

i thought i was thinner those days..when i was in school..
so into this kawad kaki thingy..everyday marching here and there..
marching competition every other month..
also the ping pong training..almost everyday
plus the extra classes..for the dreaded SPM was coming..
huh it was challengging..mental n physical..but ..

she said aku lg kurus sekarang??..huhu

maybe because those day was much more fun..
much more of doing what i enjoy and without obligation..
maybe because those day my mum used to force me to take all kinds of supplements..
(do you know vitamin B can improve ur appetite..so i ate more..hehe)

and maybe that is why those day
i was not as thinner as i am today..

no.. I don't want to answer the question anymore....
but it was nice seeing you again..
keep in touch yaaa..

:D

Bila kaki di gigi air

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

sejuk-sejuk air di kaki..
legakan lenguh usailah letih..
pujuk-pujuk alahai hati..
hilangkan keluh usahlah sedih..

mengalir jernih air di kaki
bagaikan cermin membias wajah..
biarlah bersih alahai di hati..
moga terjamin hidup yang indah..

terpercik sana air di kaki
bila dihayun kaki ..ayun..
terbit ceria alahai hati..
bila tersenyum hati..tersenyum..

-nlene

urs truly not in the mood today..perhaps because it's monday..

MINAH FEELs STUPID..

"Allah tidak membebani seseorang itu melainkan sesuai dengan kesanggupannya. "
-Surah Al-Baqarah ayat 286

Di sini ada cerita..
Pada suatu hari minah telah pergi berjumpa dukun yang hampir setahun tidak ditemui.Walaupun sebenarnya minah patut berjumpa dengan dukun tersebut awal tahun lepas untuk rawatannya namun atas sebab2 yang tidak dapat dielakkan minah tidak dapat berjumpa dengan dukun.

jadi apabila dukun nampak minah kali ini dia amat terkejut..kecewa mungkin..dan marah.. dukun bercakap dalam bahasa inggeris..dan minah tahu..kalau dukun sudah bercakap dalam bahasa itu maka ternyata dukun amat marah..apa boleh dibuat..minah senyum aja..

dukun cakap kalau ikutkan..rawatan minah sudah boleh ditamatkan tahun lepas tapi sebab minah engkar perintah..tidak berjumpa dukun..maka rawatan telah tergendala..

minah tidak tahu rawatannya sudah peringkat akhir ..kalau tidak..walau lautan api sekali pun perlu diredah..mesti dia pulang bertemu dukun..semata-mata untuk sembuh dan menamatkan rawatannya..teruk minah dimarahi dukun..

tapi bukan kena marah yang buat minah kecewa..
bukan leter dukun yang buat minah sedih..
tapi minah..kesilapan minah..ketidakprihatinan minah..

silapnya percaturan yang membuatkan minah telah membazir setahun dalam usianya..sekarang rawatan terpaksa dibuat semula..harapnya tidak lama..kerana beban tanggungjawab membuatkan minah tidak dapat bertemu dukun selalu..

maka minah harap rawatannya dapat ditamatkan secepat mungkin..
minah minta tuhan sembuhkannya secepat mungkin..
buat pertama kalinya minah terasa amat kecewa dengan diri sendiri..

urs truly merasakan kecewa dengan diri sendiri lebih memedihkan daripada kecewa dengan orang lain.

ada seseorang berpesan:
" Tunjangkan resah mu di dada solat,
Himpunkan peritmu digenggaman doa,
Tutupi kekecewaan dgn taqwa,
Dan nilailah kesucian dirimu melalui keikhlasan hati".

my siblings n I + my cousins at another cousin's wedding at Dewan FELDA in January

urs truly dah bosan rotate baju kurung..hmm
nak kena tambah stok nih..

The comfort of home..

merantau..
membuat aku lebih menghargai..
'the comfort of home.'..

mengapa berkelana...
hati sentiasa resah gelisah..
tapi bila pulang..
semua itu hilang..

walaupun sementara..
kerna esok lusa..
mengembara lagi..
kerna di situ rezekiku..

Le tour de Langkawi III

Mas sabe el diablo por viejo que por diablo
(There's no substitute for experience)

The activities planned for us by the organisers was such an experience..besides gaining a bunch of new friends we also had a fun experience..After breakfast on Saturday we were ushered to the Fun and Adventure section of the hotel..We were going islands hopping..There were 3 boats for 26 of us..around 9.00 the engines started roaring and off we go to our first destination -Pulau Dayang Bunting..


From far the hill on the island really look like a pregnant maiden lying on her back.We spent about an hour at the lake. Some were having fun swimming..riding the banana boat.. or just simply sitting on the deck..and feeling the cold water running through our feet.It was quite frusfrating to know that all the ikan kelis has gone probably disturbed by the memerang earlier in the morning..if not they would happily gliding against your feet..don't put your hand though coz it will sting..


next stop was the Singa besar island for eagle feeding. There were so many eagles flying around when we arrived.The boatman threw some chicken skin into the water and the eagle flew fast and quickly snap the skin.My friend found a hard time trying to take their picture since they were very quick and flew away swiftly..There are 2 types of eagles there ..the plain white one and the brown colored one as you can see at the Dataran lang..


after a few near-missed pictures then we moved on to the Beras Basah island where the sand was white and smooth..the sand was so fine.. and we had a splendid splashing ..ignoring the hot sun..floating and swimming ..simply enjoying the sea..lantaklah sunburn punnn..

we were back at the hotel around 1pm.. after a refreshing bath..and a heartiest lunch.. we were shown around the hotels..all types of rooms they have..the conference room and also banquet hall..at around 3.30 pm we all brought by bus to the oriental village at the foot of Gunung Mat Raya where the cable car station was.

this is my first time riding on a cable car..so it was quite cool..we could see the telaga tujuh from the air but there was not much water since the dry season was on its way..the second station was on renovaton so we were not allowed to embark there but at the peak station. From there we went down 47 steps .. to cross the mountain bridge..barely sea the island(forgot the name) which actually was on Thailand side..can't even distiguish which was the Selat Melaka and which was laut andaman..huh my geog knowledge very bad huh..

my feet hurt through the night..but I enjoy the BBq so much..especially the prawns..had two plates..nyum nyum..

the next day was our travelling day back to KL..

Le tour de Langkawi II

These were what I scribbled on a note while retreating to bed last Friday..arghh..heaven.. love hotel's bed.. comfort..

6.00 am ++
via taxi from Restoran Yus , Bangi heading to KL

6.55 am
arrived at Wisma Genting just in time (the programme said we had to gather at 7am). Thanks to En Wahab the taxi driver who's willing sent us there for a cheap fare.thanks also to En Suhaimi for helping us find a transport to KL so early in the morning.

7.00am
board the provided air-conditioned coach to Kuala Perlis.stopped at RnR Rawang for breakfast and RnR Gurun for lunch.26 persons including both of us and the organisers.

3.00pm
ferry jetty in Kuala Perlis.board the 3.30 ferry.45 minutes and walla!! jetty Kuah Langkawi...

5.00pm
arrive at Awana Porto Malai ..had a welcoming drink..and cool towel..met pakcik Hassan who seems to know our bosses.

actually from the trip I came to realise it was actually quite easy to make friends..My friend and I was admiring the Kedah's Menteri Besar which look just like our Dato Jo..and suddenly a pakcik came and said " kenal ke?"that was exactly how we met pakcik hassan ..actually he was in the same group as us.while waiting to check-in we chat and it got more fun since he was once upon a time before..a staff at our place.hmm what a small world it is.


after dinner ..I was hoping to relax at the lobby lounge where they had a two-piece band.. serenade by the great vocals and love songs..well not quite what I imagine..a group of tourists..join us and they start dancing and singing..my friend said "exotic moves" ..hmm well..sort of.. even this one guy start taking off his clothes..gee..my friend and I just smile and laugh..watever..we were at the lobby lounge but I felt like I watch a disco scene in a Hong Kong movie..hehe.. by 10 ..I couldn't take it anymore so we left..tido lg bagus..

le tour de Langkawi

NO.. aku bukan nak cerita pasal lumba basikal keliling Malaysia yang berakhir di Dataran Merdeka semalam ..tapi cerita aku jalan-jalan ke Langkawi hujung minggu baru-baru ini..seronok sangat walaupun kalau hendak dikira lebih sikit 48 jam sahaja aku di Pulau itu..

Pulau yang penuh lagenda..cerita dongeng..mitos.. tersendiri..
kadang-kadang terbuai juga mendengar cerita-cerita yang mungkin separuh benar .. dan separuh penambah perisa itu..

cerita lagenda Mahsuri yang menurut kerajaan negeri Kedah benar-benar wujud
cuma peristiwa darah berwarna putih itu hanya Tuhan yang tahu..
cerita puteri kayangan atau puteri Siam kematian anak di Tasik Dayang Bunting..
cerita Mat Jinjang dan Mat Raya yang bergaduh ketika kenduri..
dan kemudian disumpah menjadi 2 gunung yang tinggi di Langkawi
macam-macam cerita..
sometimes it was too good to be true tapi itu jugalah yang menarik di Langkawi selain dari status bebas cukai..

mungkinkah sumpahan Mahsuri benar berlaku dan berakhir..?
seperti mana sumpahan Sultan Mahmud kepada keturunan Bentan di Johor..
atau sumpahan janji Pak Kadok pada ikan tapah..?apa ini semua benar?
namun yang pasti itulah cerita-cerita melayu warisan.. sejarah.. tinggalan.. Melayu
aiseh..patriotik terasa....

"Harapan hamba sejarah akan dibaca.
Sejarah akan mengajar.Dan anak muda akan belajar."
Quote this from novel 1515 karya Feisal Tehrani

peluang mengikuti rombongan ini amat aku hargai..manakan tidak ..F.O.C..
thanks to a friend coz out of many friends she asked me..so thanks alot..
lain hari kita ajak kawan-kawan lain pulak.. dapat satu geng pi..pastu tour pulau dengan bot laju melompat-lompat macam kuda tuh..mesti seronok..
langsung tidak perlu memikirkan hal kerja..hehe
eh melalut lak..

ingat nak cerita detail..tapi cam malas pulak..so kita wat segment by segment ya.. le tour de langkawi II coming soon..

Bara

Ya tuhan kami, tuangkanlah kesabaran atas diri kami
dan kukuhkanlah pendirian kami
dan tolonglah kamiterhadap orang-orang kafir. (2:250)



arghhh.. berasap hari ini..
panas..
bukan..bukan HOT FM
bukan jugak aircond pejabat tidak berfungsi
tapi aku..
tersirap ..
panas telinga sekejap..

lantaran ada manusia..
tek reti bahasa..
atau "simply ignorant"
atau pura-pura

tidak pandai lagi untuk aku bahasakannya..
geram...

tau..tau..
sabar itu separuh daripada iman..
tapi aku bukan nabi..
bukan juga manusia sufi..
sabar aku nyaris terlangkau sempadan..
nasib aku sempat berfikir..

bimbang bahasa terkesat..
suara meninggi..
amarah mengawal diri..

tidak..tidak sama sekali
aku tunduk
menunjukkan kebodohan diri..
menjatuhkan maruah sendiri
dengan marah..
dengan amarah..

tapi siapa tau..
kemudian hari..
kesabaran ini tiada lagi..
fikiran ini terkeliru..

mungkin..
mungkin..
lagi kan gunung berapi..
ada hari pasti meletup..
apatah lagi manusia ini..

di saat itu..
bukan mereka yang akan sedih..
bukan mereka yang akan kecewa..
tapi aku..
aku.. kerana kalah..
dengan amarahku sendiri..

sedangkan mereka
mungkin tetap jadi mereka
mungkin tetap begitu


urs truly terfikir sama ada tersalah menilai
atau ada orang yang sememangnya sengaja hendak menguji
grr.......sabar je laa
