A Weekend in KL

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.
I think the title is self explanatory. So I'd like to skip the intro la :)
.
Arrived in KL around 11 am. Left Alif & Akif at my parents' in Pandan Jaya with bibik. By 11.30 my wife and I were already in the STAR-LRT. First (and only) destination Jalan T.A.R.
.
Mannn...I so hate Jalan TAR. Jalan TAR is my toughest ujian not only this year's Ramadhan, but every year!!! Jalan TAR is my Everest :P Why la women have to go to Jalan TAR? Would Hari Raya be meaningless if they skip Jalan TAR?? Can somebody please answer that for me?
.
Anyways, back to our Jalan TAR quest. Ekcelikan, I wanted her to go there with her frens. I'd be happy to supply the money, but nooooo.....it would be different without me, she said. Sheeshh.....it's a long shot anyway. I knew I had to come back to Jalan TAR since last year oredi, right after we got back from JALAN TAR!!!! - 'Next year kita pegi lagi ye Abah...'
.
The stalls seemed endless. The crowd seemed to be getting bigger by the seconds. Amidst all these, I nearly fell asleep a couple of time. Ngantuk gila ah. The heat I can stand, the hunger I can stand, the thirst oso I can stand, but the boredom was unbearable.
.
The Jalan TAR tour ended around 1.45 pm. We then proceed to SOGO. I hate SOGO too (only during festive season though) They have this massive SALE and it attracts people from all over the country. Believe me, it's true!!!! But at least, the place is air conditioned. So I was not as grumpy as I was when we were at Jalan TAR.
.
Anyways, I bought 1 Adidas T-Shirt and BUM Jeans for Alif, and 1 MIKI T-Shirt for Akif. Ok la tu kan. They have more than enough Baju Raya oredi. We bought the first batch of Baju Raya in June. This time around, just tambah2 aje. We went straight home right after paying for the clothes.
.
At home managed to sleep for 30 minutes. Woke up to get ready for the most awaited event of the month - the annual berbuka puasa with friends. FYI, we went separate ways, my wife went to berbuka with her friends and me with mine.
.
This year, we had it at Sakura Kristal. Just like last year. Overall ok la. RM39.60 per pax. The only thing that I want to complain is that they didn't prepare enough drinks. After the second or third batch, they stopped refilling the drinks, and it was only 8.30!! They buffet was supposed to be open until 10 pm ok.

No hanky panky ah!!!

So all in all, our trip to KL was a success. Everybody got what they wanted. Oh ye, the next day we went to KLCC, but nothing interesting happened. Just bought this book:

Ok la korang. If this is my last posting, I wish you guys Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri and drive safely ya. Oh ye...sorry for the sloppy entry, I'm kinda lazy lately. Bulan puasa la katakan...

Soklan Cepu Mas

Staf aku tanya:

'Encik, kalo naik 48 kat sini je tak boleh ke encik? Tak payah la pindah2 tempat'

Tak terjawab aku. Nak tergelak pon ada, geram pon ada sebab jawapannya aku memang tau sangat. Last2 aku senyum je la.....

Aku tak suka la keje kat daerah ni. My jiwa is soooo not into it. Aku skang ni takde mood sangat la. Malasssss....I know dat I'm suppose to Saya Yang Menurut Perintah & Berkhidmat Untuk Negara, buttttt....if I'm not happy, how am I suppose to perform kan?....tensen la camniiii...

Dunno la whether to treat this as bad news or not. If it is, that makes it three!!! hmm....bad things came in three eh?....scaryyyy
.
But there's still hope. Nanti PRO akan kosong by January or February. Need to cut deal with MsPSM ASAP....

Kalo takleh gak.....kena buat something drastic ni.....aku nak pindah ke federal balik la. Senang hati aku....tapi kena discuss dengan my wife dulu la....

Citer Puasa Dolu-Dolu

Assalamualaikum & Selamat Hari-Hari
.
Taun lepas aku ade tulis pasal pose kat PPP/ITM (dah setahun dah ek). So taun ni aku ingat nak tulis pasal pose kat sekolah dulu la. Pose budak asrama. ehehehhe....
.
.
Pada yang tatau, aku dulu sekolah kat Labu, Negeri Sembilan. Nama sekolah, Sek. Men. Agama Persekutuan. So nama glamer dia SMAP Labu. Sekolah aku ni tak la seglamer sekolah2 yang lain, tapi aku sayang la sekolah ni. Sentimental la plak kan. Tapi apa yang ada pada aku hari ni, mostly aku belajar kat sekolah ni la. Ye la kan, 5 taun membesar kat dalam asrama.
.
So pasal pose. Aku masa Form 1 memang kekok pose kat sekolah ni. Ye la, lauk tak sama cam kat rumah. Pastu makan apa yang pakcik dewan makan tu masak je la. Kalo kat umah ada kuih 2-3 jenis, buah, air pon 2-3 jenis lagi. Sorry la kalo kat asrama. Basically, nasik + lauk of the day + buah + tamar + air. Dah la buah tu takleh rembat banyak2. Sorang satu je.
.
And mind you, kat asrama ni makanan bukannya hari-hari sedap ok. Kalo kena time ayam/daging tu ok la jugak. Tapi kalo dapat ikan jaket dgn kuah kosong....apa nak cakap...layan je la.
.
Biasanya a typical puasa day would start at 4 am. Ni lagi satu hal, kalo kat umah, aku salu sahur kul 5, ni kul 4 dah kena bangun dah. Korang bayang la, nak kena jalan gi dewan makan, dah sampai dewan makan kena beratur lagi, kekadang bila sampai turn aku, tray plak dah abisss!!! arghhh tensen oooo...kena la tunggu abang dewan makan tu gi amik kat blakang.
.
Dan seingat aku, lauk sahur sepanjang bulan pose ni sameeee je. Ikan masak kicap....tapi ikan tu yang jenis sedap sket la. Ikan apa ntah nama dia, tapi kitorang panggil 'Ikan Ayam' sebab rasa dia ada la sket2 cam ayam.
.
Ada sekali tu, budak2 bilik aku ni jenis malas nak turun dewan makan. Stakat togok air kat bilik je. So kitorang punya senior dalam bilik tu saje je ranjau kitorang. Dia sampai bilik je terus kecoh kata kat dewan makan ada buah epal & anggur. Kitorang pon apalagi....epal & anggur tuuuuu....spesis buah yang memang tak wujud kat asrama...sampai2 je dewan makan...wakenabeb la jawabnye.
.
Sedih siot masa tu, penat ooo turun, tapi rupanya kena tipu. Geram pon ada, sebab bukannya tatau yg buah epal & anggur tak logik, tapi sebab kul 4 pagi agaknya, kepala takleh nak proses info tu lagi...ehehhe
.
Kat kelas cam biasa la. Aku bulan pose ni fresh sket. Mebbe sebab perut kita takde nak digest apa2 kan, so tak ngantuk la. Tapi bila dah masuk tengahari....dia punya ngantuk tu, kalo bleh nak tido la kat atas lantai tu. Tapi sebab ada budak pompuan, control jugak la.
.
Lepas kelas lagi best. Bulan pose biasanya takde PREP. So bleh lepak kat bilik and tido sampai Asar. Best oooo. Memang senyap sunyi je asrama masa tu. Dengar bunyi kipas je. Lepas Asar biasanya lepak bilik or pegi main la kan. Tapi tak sonok main time bulan pose ni, sbb masa dia pendek sangat. Paling kuat pon main sampai kul 6 pastu naik mandi. Sebab kul 6.30 nak kena beratur amik nasik la plak. Kalo lambat silap2 makan nasik dgn kuah je la jawabnya. Lagi satu kalo lambat sampai dewan makan, nanti kena potong dgn senior. Budak2 junior beratur sket punya panjang, sampai je mamat senior ni selambe je gi depan sekali. ehehehh....sabar je la
.
Kantin pon ada jugak jual makanan. Tapi takde la best. Yang aku ingat ada telur, ayam percik pon ada kot and cendol. Tapi masa tu budak2 kan. Mana la ada duit sangat. Kalo ada duit pon, sbb tengok member lain tak beli, tak sampai hati la plak. Sebenarnya takut kena pau...ahahahah....
.
Time bulan pose ni la kita bleh tengok semua Senior ada cawan/gelas sendiri. Masa bulan pose je la. Lepas tu hampeh!!! Sama la cam aku pon. Selain daripada bulan pose, memang keje kitorang rembat cawan budak junior je la. Member tu penat2 gi amik air, kitorang selamba je amik gelas tu letak kat meja kitorang. Air abih je, jerit kat budak junior tu suruh amik lagi. Fuhhh....memang king la masa tu. Form Five la katakan. Junior beb. Memang tak melawan punye la. Aku dulu kalo kena cam tuh, memang aku doa mintak brader tu fail exam. hehehh....
.
Bab semayang bulan pose ni pon lain macam sket. Senior2 yang taiko pon buat semayang malam. Agaknya sebab environment kan. And stakat baca Quran 30 juzuk tu kira citer biasa la. Orang tak heran pon.
.
Apa lagi eh. Tu je la kot. Basically, masa kat skolah dulu, senakal mana pon, insya allah bab agama tu terjaga. Sekarang ni, ilmu tu ada la sket2. Tapi nak mengamalkan tu...mak oiii sket punya liat la kan. Aku rasa tu la sebab Tuhan bayar cash tu :)
.
Ok la korang. Selamat Berpuasa!!!

Some bad news

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.
First of all bad news. Last week I had an accident. I 'kissed' a taxi, an old Mercedez taxi....so you can imagine la the damages to my car. Well, I have nothing to comment about the accident. You know what they say....shit happens :)
.
I also see this as a 'cash' punishment from God (Ya Allah please forgive me). I must have done something bad or maybe I was too complacent in life. I think it would definitely be the latter. Don't know la, only God knows. See, I realize that when you take bad news and see it from a religious angle, you tend to accept it pretty easily. I mean, I was frustrated, but still I was relaxed. Mebbe it's time to change car eh :P
.
Another bad news, my application for Master's was rejected. Well, it was expected anyway. Limited Slots vs Overwhelming Applicants + the fact that I'm still a junior in the service. But there are a few of my batch mates who got it. It's their rezeki la kan. This is my fate, and I accept it. There's always a blessing in disguise....Insya Allah
