special day

sedar tak sedar..
hari ni.. adalah hari ulang tahun kelahiran aku


(my favourite birthday song)

aissehhh..
dah makin tua rupanya..
heheh..

apapun..
seperti mana selalu
my famili ni
bukan la jenis berparti / bermajlis ni
bila sambut birthday any one of us
but.. kami tetap ingat..
walaupun, kengkadang tak ingat sangat..
:)

tapinya..
yang aku tau dan pasti..
aku boleh tau dan akan tau..
jika satu-satu hari tu..
adalah ulang tahun kelahiran
salah seorang ahli keluarga aku
bila mak buat makan besar sikit dari biasa
mesti ada nasi ayam dan air sirap..

(argghhhhhhhh..
rindunya nak makan nasi ayam
yang mak buat is of course
the best in the world)

and as for me..
setiap kali birthday aku
aku memang akan selalu teringat kat mak

sebab.. pada aku..
hari ulang tahun kelahiran kita
adalah sebenarnya hari di mana
kita memang patut ingat pada mak kita
yang melahirkan kita pada hari itu
pada satu tahun dahulu..

pernah dulu..
masa aku jadi cikgu sekolah
(swasta.. for about 2 years)
and ada sekali tu aku kene jadi facilitator
for satu sesi motivasi for a group of pupils..
and i explained to my students.. that concept
- hari lahir kita adalah hari untuk mengenang ibu kita

ramai yang nangis..
aku pun nangis sekali le..
hehe

mak..
terima kasih.. atas segalanya..
tiada mak.. tiada la aku..

it's finally over

gumbira sungguh rasa hatiku
pada hari ini, pada ketika ini

why?

well..
exactly 7 years ago
i bought my first very own car
it was a silver-colour Perodua Kancil manual-850cc
with a 7-year contract of repayment scheme
from AmBank (then was Arab Malaysian Bank)

since then..
every month i need to fork out RM 454
from whatever sources of income that i had
for that particular months

and today.. it's finally over !
what a relief, what a feeling !

at present and for the last 3 years
the car is with my younger brother
but, it's still mine and under my name
and i would (definitely) like to have it back
once (if) i'm back in tanahairku

sepanjang 4 tahun sebelum tu
kancilku itu telah menjelajah hampir ke seluruh pelusuk
utara hingga selatan semenanjung Malaysia
Bandar Pulau Pinang ke Tambak Johor
Dungun ke Port Dickson

pernah sekali tayar pancit dalam hujan tengah malam
while heading back from Singapore to KL

pernah sekali windscreen pecah
sebab follow lori dekat sangat agaknya
ada batu from celah tayar lori tu kot
yang melantun kene cermin keretaku (aduss..)

pernah sekali kene langgar from the back
by a red Proton Satria (siott betul)
masa tengah tunggu queue masuk roundabout
waktu morning rush hour nak ke opis
but, yang ajaibnya, Proton tu lagi teruk remuknya
compared to bumper belakang Peroduaku yang gagah itu (hehe..)
anyway, dia yang langgar aku, so dia la yang kena saman

other than that..
the car had never let me down
or having any other major 'injuries'
- i am indeed a very proud owner

nevertheless.. just now..
baru je maybank2u.com kan
instalment terakhir untuk kereta kecil ku itu

you are free, free at last !!!
wahai kancilku sayang..
:)

love is funny

hmm.. frankly speaking
i never thought they would end up together

well.. i never expected that
he would fall (in love) for her
but then again, perhaps he's now a different man
and not the same teenager that i used to know
yup, we were good friends once (or so i thought)
with a lot of memories that i still fond to reminiscing

anyhow..
lama tak jumpa that guy
the last time was back in 2003 (i think)
before that was on 14 Oct 2001 (am very sure of that)

never a fan of Erra myself
but, few months back
i started to love her song Sampai Bertemu
(and that's all) due to a certain phase of my life
that 'blend' so well with the song's lyrics

nevertheless..
and notwithstanding all the above
i would like to wish "all the best of luck"
to my dear friend Engku Emran
(a.k.a. Kumre - as we used to call him)
and his soon-to-be dear wifey Erra Fazira
(a.k.a. the last Melayu-MissMalaysia)

semoga berbahagia dunia dan akhirat
aminn.. ya rabal'alamin..

p.s.:
kawin jugak kau akhirnya yek bro !
;)

tough timetable

am very busy with stuff and work mostly
and will only have my 'freedom' on the 10th

"the only place you can find success
without much hardwork
is in the dictionary"

"plan your work and work your plan"

see you later !

it's a surprise indeed

i was first alerted about this
as i was reading the post by Dr. Cool

so, i thought of giving it a try
which i did.. and.. voila!!!..

what the f**k?
- that's not me

i am wondering now, what else is out there
while the scenes from the film Enemy of the State
had already knock-down my fear

damn!
