Cinema Cinema Cinema

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.
During the weekend, Mama, Alif & I went to the movie. We watched this:
.
.
I gave it 3.5 stars. Somehow I feel that The Joker overshadows the Dark Knight himself. No wonder the people on E! are screaming Oscar for the late Heath Ledger. He did extremely well. This Joker is not like the one played by Jack Nicholson, he is much much darker and eviler than before.
.
This time around, you'd also find out the birth of Two Face and Commissioner Gordon. The down thing about this movie is that the heroin tak cun la. I think they should have chosen another heroin. I mean a prettier one la.
.
And if you plan to watch this movie, be prepared physically. Becoz it's a 2 hours 15 min movie. Alif got bored after 90 minutes. After that he started asking a lot of questions about the movie. Everytime he asked, the whole cinema would hear him. He got such a big voice, I tell you. I had to syyyy him a couple of time. eheheheh.
.
Anyways, I oso bought some DVDs. Please do not ask me the authenticity of the DVDs ok. You all should know by now :). The DVDs are:
.
.
I think M. Night Syamalan has lost a little bit of his touch. I used to love his work i.e Sixth Sense, The Village, The Signs. But this movie and the previous one (Lady in the Water) are a bit lame for his standard. But still, it's not that bad. I think 3 star would suffice.
.
.
These guys are dirty as ever. Never watch this movie with your kids. Unless if you are those people who are really open about sex & drugs :) This movie will never reach our cinemas, I can guarantee you that. Overall, okay la, if you like slapstick and nonsense stuffs. You'll like this movie. At the end of the movie, they show a little bit of Red Flag District. ehehheeh...what? you don't know what Red Flag District is? Go google at your own risk :))
.
.
The most popular Guru this time around. I've been watching this movie for 45 minutes. So far I'm not so impressed, I think it's hard not to associate Mike Myers with Austin Powers. I could only see Austin Powers and not Guru Pitka. But still it's funny.

Interview & KLCC

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.
Yesterday I went to Putrajaya for my Master's interview. Remember in my earlier posting I told you guys that I have two projects. So, this is one of them :)
.
Dunno la whether I impressed the panels or not. I believe in God and rezeki. So let fate decides la. Anyway, the interview lasted for an hour. Penat gak la aku nak goreng.
.
After the interview, I went to Ampang Point looking for this:
.

Deluxe Omnitrix
.
Ni la nama dia Omnitrix. Hero dalam Ben10 pakai benda nih la bila nak transform to certain monsters before going into battle with the aliens. Anak aku memang suka sangat la benda alah nih. Aku pon sebagai seorang bapak yang baik, layan jugak la cartoon nih. Anak aku panggil Omnitrix nih Jam Ben10. Hari-hari dok sebut pasal benda nih.
.
So dulu masa dia nak exam wife aku ada promise kat dia, kalo dapat semua A, baru la bleh beli jam Ben10. Bila result kluar, memang betul dia dapat semua A. Tu yang dok tagih janji je tuh. Unfortunately, kat Ipoh tak sampai lagi benda ni. Tu yang aku carik kat KL tu. Itupon kat Ampang Point takde. Terpaksa la aku runner pegi KLCC. Sib baik jumpa gak kat Toys 'R' Us.
.
Ni la Ben, so bila dia nak fight dengan alien dia akan tranform jadi monster2 yang kat blakang dia tuh la.
.
Kalo pakai Omnitrix, kena pose camnih.
.
.
Anyways, alang-alang dah sampai kat KLCC tu, aku singgah la kat Kinokuniya. Beli la buku nih:
.
.
Aku suka la buku-buku Vince Flynn nih. Stakat nih semua buku dia aku dah ada. Kalo korang suka cerita-cerita pasal spy, elok sangat la baca buku dia. Memang worth it la.

Confuse vs Funny

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.
From Wikipedia, the free encylopedia
.
A statutory declaration is a legal document defined under the law of certain Commonwealth nations. It is similar to a statement made under oath, however, it is not sworn.
.
Statutory declarations are commonly used to allow a person to affirm something to be true for the purposes of satisfying some legal requirement or regulation when no other evidence is available. They are thus similar to affidavits (which are made on oath).
.
Depending on jurisdiction, statutory declarations can be used for:

- Declarations of identity, nationality, marital status, etc. when documentary evidence is unavailable.
.
- Declaring the intention to change one's name.

- Affirming the provenance and nature of goods for export or import.
.
- Statements of originality for patent applications.
.
******************************
.
I am no lawyer (but my wife is, imagine arguing with a lawyer, eheheh). Judging from the definition of Statutory Declaration, it seems like it is a very serious document. You cannot play-play with it you know.
.
But sadly, lately some people are treating SD like a toy. To mud the water even further, the SDs were based on somebody else's experience and not the person who issued the SD himself.
.
Alamak...what's going on man? Some people don't bother about politics. But those who do, this is really confusing, funny even. Yeah, I think it's more funny than confusing.
.
Moreover, if you are really telling the truth, why not do an affidavit? Afterall, it is under oath. Wouldn't it be much stronger? I mean if you really are seeking the truth, wouldn't you want to use the best weapon you have in your armory? Confusing or funny? ehehheh....
.
Kekadang tu, rasa macam zaman budak-budak dulu kan. Tatau la korang, tapi aku & kengkawan aku dulu, kalo nak make sure member kitorang tak cakap bohong, kitorang akan pegi kat dia & tulis 'Alif Lam Lam Ha' kat dahi dia. Of course kitorang takde la pakai pen, pakai jari je la. Konon-kononnya takleh nak tipu la. Tapi kalo nak menipu tu menipu jugak. Bebudak la katakan.
.
But my point is, then, whenever we wanted to seek the truth, that was the method. But now, these people are using SD! So, to me they are like children. They have no respect for the law.
.
Now commoner like us will see SD as only a piece of paper, not something we can respect. I bet that after this, nobody will believe in SD anymore. They'll say, 'ala setakat issue SD, kencing aje tuuuu....' or when trying to convince the wife 'betul yang, abang takde affair, kalo tak caya nanti abang buat SD ye'. Imagine that. eheheheh.
.
Take care folks! Have a nice weekend!
.
Updated@1618
.
Ahahahahah.....the guy who produced an SD yesterday retracted his old SD and produced a new SD claiming that the first one was done under duress. See.....funnnnyyyyyyy. Bleh main tarik-tarik balik plak SD tuh. Klakar nih. I wish I could retract my exam papers la. Who knows mebbe I could graduate with 4.0 CGPA.
.
Beware you guys. Mebbe tomorrow the same guy will produce a new SD exposing that the reason he was under duress is because he was actually being kidnapped by aliens. The aliens were the ones who actually forced him to produce the first SD. Then we may have to call Agent Mulder and Scully to solve this case.
.
Shesshhh...just cut the whole f*cking bu**shit lah. It's sooo frustrating. Anyways, enjoy the weekend you guys!

Tom Clancy

I am currently reading this. Yeah, I do read books ok. Don't be surprised :)
.


Mannn.....it's so boring. Too many characters, too many plots. Penat aku.
.
It's actually an old book. I bought it because I've read Tom Clancy's books before, and it was awesome. But this one is a different case. I think I need to stop reading this book for a while, switch to other book. You know, just to get the mood back. Wish me luck.


Bahau

My fren Bahau has got a blog oredi. Congrats Bahau!

He's a good fren of mine. Funny guy. His blog should be interesting. Check out his blog Tinta Budak Bahau.

Bahau, ko jangan plak post satu entry je. Rajin-rajin la update ye.

Short News

WORK
.
I've been busy. Remember that I was telling you guys earlier that I have no work to do. It's been haunting me now :)
.
Last week was busy with Dewan Negeri. The week before that I was busy preparing answers for the Excos, so that they can answer the questions in Dewan Negeri. The Dewan session ended last Friday.
.
I think the new government fared poorly. At least in the Dewan. They seemed not to know what to do. Well the majority of them are first timers. They are no match for the seasoned politicians of the former government.
.
Hope this will open up the Pandora's Box (Perakians did opted for the Pandora's Box when they decided to change the government, remember?) And most importantly, open up our minds.
.
.
ANWAR
.
Here we go again. Personally, it's not a surprise to me. But on a more general note. Let the law decides on this. We the public are better off minding our own business. Do not repeat the 97-98 chaos. It will not bring any good to us and the country.
.
And if you feel you can't trust the law. Trust GOD. He knows it better than us, His servants. After all, Anwar is just another human being and he is not perfect. But as I said, mind our own business. Don't judge a book by its cover. A cliché, I know, but what best word to describe it?
.
.
Kung Fu Panda
.
Best ah. Hillarious. What else I can say? I think, knowing Jack Black plays Po the Panda really helps. You can actually see him in Po. But I cant see Angeline Jolie in Tigress. I think they should design Tigress sexier, you know like Cheetara in Thundercats.
.
.
Teething
.
Akif is teething. So he caught a light fever. His brother Alif was oso not well. He had diarrhea and fever too. After that, Akif oso got diarrhea, it's contagious meh? Nevermind. As a result, after two visits to two different clinics, I ended up paying RM200 on medical bills. Sapa tak sayang anak oiii. I'd rather cut my budget on lunches and teh tarik to see them get the best treatment. Well, I guess you guys are no different either.

Huaaarrghhhh

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.
I know what you guys are thinking - 'Giler rilek mamat nih, hari-hari bleh post entry' ..... Oh ye, the title is actually the sound I make when I yawn :P
.
This is my 3rd posting in three days. A superb performance by my standard. ehehhehe. Dont judge me just yet ok. The truth is that I have nothing to do YET. You know la, new office & new environment. My boss is still figuring out what work to give me. Currently the workload is being undertaken by a colleague. So now, he needs to tie up all the loose ends before handing the job over to me. Before that time comes, I'm in honeymoon mode.
.
If this is a honeymoon, it would the most boring honeymoon in the history of mankind. I read the newspapers from front to the very last page. It took me 90 minutes to finish. After that I didnt know what to do so I surfed the net and did some bloghopping. After half an hour aku dah kaput dah. Boring.....
.
I also managed to translate wakrin's blog title - 'un homme est autorisé à marcher mais jamais courir' - it means 'a man is authorized to walk but never run'. Betul tak wakrin? I dunno why he chose this title, but knowing wakrin he always likes to incorporate some wisdom (kononnye la) in his work. ahahahah. Whatever makes you happy la wakrin. And by the way, please update ko punya blog ok, dah macam hutan rimba dah aku tengok.
.
Kazarul is coming to town today. He'll be delivering my Germany Euro jersey. Imported from Rantau Panjang :) So malam ni bleh la kitorang melepak. Be prepare people, kalo terbatuk-batuk malam ni, itu maknanya anda sedang dikutuk. ahahahah. So please forgive us.
.
Ok la peeps, need to look like busy now. Adios

Dr. Jones

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.
Went to the cinema last Saturday with mama and alif. It was a long overdue promise to alif actually. He actually wanted to watch Narnia, but because of time constraint, we decided to watch Indiana Jones.
.
It was ok la. I fell asleep midway. ehehehhe. I even snored. ahahahha. Luckily my wife came to the rescue. I think the person next to me was really annoyed lah. But for the record, I didnt fall asleep because of the movie. It was because I just had my lunch + one large popcorn + twisties + coke. Naturally, I'd be sleepy la kan. So to all Indiana Jones fans, I'm sorry if I have insulted your hero. ehehhehe.....
.
But I think the ending is quite lame. Aliens and UFO? Are you kidding me? Come on, such a 'potong stim' kind of ending la. But overall, ok la. I'll rate it at B or B+ the most la.

Good News Bad News

Assalamualaikum & Goodday

Good news first, I'm no longer in the Number One office. Yeay!!! Starting today, I'll be working at the State Finance Office which is also in the same building. I feel so relief for so many things. First, I finally got out of that office, second, I dont have to move far, just two levels below. Yippie. The only thing is that I lost my designated parking space. Alaaaahhh....small matter for the sake of happiness tul tak? So now, my designation is Penolong Pegawai Kewangan Negeri. ehehehhe. Ok la tu.
.
Early this morning, I visited the old office to collect some of my belongings. Met some of the new boss' people. They acted as if that they are shocked that i was transfered out. You guys aint gonna full me la. So full of bul*shit. I got more ears and eyes in this building than they do. I know that they plan to they have one of 'their people' to fill up my previous post. As if I care.
.
So that's the good news. The bad news is actually rather basi oredi. But I feel the need to pen it down anyway. So here goes. I hate the oil price hike. So outrageous la. As a government servant, I understand that the hike is imminent. But to do it so abruptly is soooo insensitive.
.
I think it was a very very very bad move on the government side. Especially considering the current political climate. They should at least delay the hike. Announce it yes, but dont enforce it yet. Let the people prepare. Let the people leash out their anger. Let them reorganize their life accordingly. Because eventually, they will accept it even though with some reluctance. But at least, down in their heart they'd understand.
.
I understand that delaying the hike may cause other problems to arise. But that is still just a small investment to win the hearts and minds of the people. Without the people the government will crumble.
.
And please stop using the same excuse that we are still the cheapest. It just wont work anymore. People want to know what are the measures taken to strengthen the economy. People want to know why does the government cannot afford to subsidize anymore? How come as the we keep telling the people that our economy is one of the best, but still we cannot afford to cushion the fuel crisis. At least give them something concrete. Or just admit that something is not right and apologize. Be honest la wei. The opposition is just waiting to launch attacks and we are subsidizing them bullets. At the end of the day, blame the government servants for not doing their jobs. Kitorang mogok nanti baru tau.
.
Ok la enuf of oil la. Nanti kena showcause letter plak.

She's just a child, you idiot!!

Assalamualaikum and Goodday
.
Just finished reading Esah's blog. Ada ceriter sedih la plak. Pasal budak umur 5 tahun kene tinggal kat umah sorang-sorang. Dah la home alone, takde makanan pulak tu. Yang mak dia plak gi clubbing...bleh? When she came back she acted as if nothing had happened. Muka tak bersalah.
.
I hate this kind of people. I mean some people would die to have a child and this biyatttch simply neglecting her God given miracle. If she went to work, then it would be a different story, but went clubbing????!!!! She should be shot to death I tell you. Damn you WOMAN!
.
Sorry la, since becoming a father, I am quite emo when it comes to people mistreating children. They are so small and vulnerable okay. Feel strong by bullying a child eh? Feel proud when they dont dare to fight you back after you've beaten them? God help you la, may you rot in HELL!!!
.
Children may not have the brains to comprehend the things done to them. But they do feel sad. Believe me, I know. I've gone thru it before. Nooo, my mother is not a child abuser, but she had this temper. She was young, and I was her first child. And yours truly oso was not an obedient kinda kid :)
.
So whenever I did something wrong she would grab anything that is around her and the rest is history. I'd usually cry, not so much because of the 'present' I got, but because of not being able to understand my mother's action. 'Apsal mak pukul tadi ye? Mak tak sayang lagi ke? Sampai hati mak buat camtu...'
.
I'd usually cry until I fell asleep. My mother would come to me to check on the bruises. She would cry out of regret. I knew this because I only 'tido-tido ayam' at the time. Offcourse after waking up, everything went back to normal as if nothing had happened. But the memories, can never be erased, I can still feel the sadness I felt then, eventhough it was more than 20 years ago. The wound healed, but it left a permanent scar.
.
But as the family grew bigger, my mother became 'cooler' in her approach. My sisters never tasted the real wrath of my mother. I was unlucky because I think it was an experimental period for my parents, they being first time parents and all.
.
So I had my cut, and I'm currently trying very hard not to be my mother when it comes to Alif and Akif. I want them to love me and my wife. I dont want them feeling sad 20 years from now just because I could not control my anger today. Tapi kekadang tu terlepas jugak la kan. Boleh tahan jugak degil anak aku nih. Memang hati kering la jugak. Agaknya aku dulu camtu la kot.
.
So people, I'm not gonna teach you how to raise your children, but please remember that some things can be forgiven, but can never be forgotten. We want to grow old having our children around us and caring for us. To have that, we must start from the time they are still young. Offcourse you can scold and cubit them once in a while, but make sure you shower them with love and care. Coz at the end of the day, that is the only thing that matters.
.
Have a nice weekend.

Lepak dan dilepakkan

Assalamualaikum & Goodday

My close fren Azlan Shah Abd Latiff has a blog oredi (ko tak bgtau aku pon Lan). Good for you la Lan. He said he was inspired (sort off) by me. Me???? An inspiration??? Never tot I could be one. Anyways, his blog is entitled Warkah Vernakular (whatever that means) . Go check it out.

Yesterday, Kazarul dropped by. So i took him and his fren to Sabar Menanti for dinner. Good outing la. Things that we talked about - rubbish :) it's a guy thing lah. Offcourse we did talk about our frens. So kutuking oso involved. So to any of my frens yg terbatuk2 malam tadi, I apologize :) Biasa la kan kawan kutuk kawan. Kutuk tuh tanda sayang. ahahhaha... (Kazarul, ko kena mintak maap sendiri eh)

We did not stay long. He had to go to the jon and after that had another 'appointment' with his boss. Hmmm.....i wonder what did they do last nite?.... Jangan buat onar ye Kazarul. At least take a picture la and email one copy to me. ahahahhaha

My days at office is getting longer and longer. Dunno why. Waiting to clock out is like eternity. The only time that I treasure the most is the time with my frens. But offcourse they too have work. So when they are busy, there i was willing the clock to move its jarum panjang to 12 and jarum pendek to 5. Work is that boring now.

But now I have projects. Two projects to be exact. I'm working on it slowly la lest kalo tak jadi takde la malu. ehehehhe.... i'll reveal my projects soon. Dont worry, it's not that interesting anyway :)

so babai people. enjoy the weekend.

Gambar kat Istana

Assalamualaikum and Goodday

Some pics taken from the palace during Sultan Perak's Birthday. My friend and I were the LO for the MB and wife.






Bagi buku aturcara


Me carrying the scroll for MB's speech





Handing the scroll to the MB


On the far side, you could see the 'Raja-Raja Bergelar', they are the ones who will replace the current Sultan according to their seniority.


On other things, my batch are currently being promoted to M48 (acting). Double joy for us!!! Baru je dapat confirmation M44, and now promotion. Kalo tak bersyukur lagi tatau la, please somebody give us a knock on the forehead with a hockey stick.
Some of us got the letter oredi. JPA is doing this exercise staggeredly. I think those who serve at federal level should be getting their promotion letter soon. While us at the state level, there might be some delay due to limited posts.
I think i'll get mine in a couple of months lah. Insya allah, kalo ada rezeki :) the only thing that worries me is - where are they going to transfer me? I think most probably in federal lah. Who knows I'll be back in KL or Putrajaya :) But frankly, i want to be in ipoh for the time being. At least until year end. Hope for the best lah ye.
To my frens yg dah dapat surat tu, congrats (tak reti2 nak open table ke?). Those yg belum, sabor sket ye. Better late than never. Tapi rugi oooo gaji tak naik lagi. ehehehhe..... and offcourse i want to thank God for blessing me with this rezeki. Alhamdullillah. Hopefully i wont be too leka with this new development.

Gua gerak dulu eh....nak pg semayang jumaat!!
**update at 5.30 pm
lupa nak bgtau....
masa ni kan actually ada life telecast kat Bernama TV,......
lupa mau bgtau kengkawan.....

Good One

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.
I think Mother's Day celebration mood is still on. So, i present to you an article that is quite cedih :( have fun reading y'all.
.
Memang sukar untuk orang lain percaya,tapi itulah yang berlaku. Ibu saya memang seorang pembohong!! Sepanjang ingatan saya sekurang-kurangnya 8 kali ibu membohongi saya. Saya perlu catatkan segala pembohongan itu untuk dijadikan renungan anda sekalian. Cerita ini bermula ketika saya masih kecil. Saya lahir sebagai seorang anak lelaki dalam sebuah keluarga miskin. Makan minum serba kekurangan. Kami sering kelaparan. Adakalanya, selama beberapa hari kami terpaksa makan berlaukkan ikan masin dikongsi satu keluarga. Sebagai anak yang masih kecil, saya sering saja merungut. Saya menangis mahukan nasi dan lauk yang banyak. Tapi ibu cepat memujuk. Ketika makan, ibu sering membahagikan bahagian nasinya untuk saya. Sambil memindahkan nasi ke mangkuk saya, ibu berkata : ""Makanlah nak ibu tak lapar." – PEMBOHONGAN IBU YANG PERTAMA.
.
Ketika saya mulai besar ibu yang gigih sering meluangkan watu senggangnya untuk pergi memancing di tali air berhampiran rumah. Ibu berharap dari ikan hasil pancingan itu dapat memberikan sedikit makanan untuk membesarkan kami adik-beradik. Pulang dari memancing, ibu memasak gulai ikan yang segar dan mengundang selera. Sewaktu saya memakan gulai ikan itu ibu duduk disamping kami dan memakan sisa daging ikan yang masih menempel di tulang daripada bekas sisa ikan yang saya makan tadi.. Saya sedih melihat ibu seperti itu.. Hati saya tersentuh lalu dengan menggunakan sudu saya memberikan ikan itu kepada ibu. Tetapi ibu dengan cepat menolaknya. Ibu berkata : "Makanlah nak, ibu tak suka makan ikan." – PEMBOHONGAN IBU YANG KEDUA.
.
Di usia awal remaja, saya masuk sekolah menengah. Ibu pergi ke kedai dengan membawa sejumlah penyapu lidi dan kuih-muih untuk menyara persekolahan saya,abang dan kakak. Suatu dinihari lebih kurang pukul 1.30 pagi saya terjaga dari tidur. Saya melihat ibu membuat kuih denagn beremankan sebuah pelita di hadapannya. Beberapa kali saya melihat kepala ibu terhangguk kerana mengantuk. Saya berkata : "Ibu, tidurlah, esok pagi ibu kena pergi kebun pula." Ibu tersenyum dan berkata : "Cepatlah tidur nak, ibu belum mengantuk lagi." – PEMBOHONGAN IBU YANG KETIGA.
.
Di hujung musim persekolahan, ibu meminta cuti kerja supaya dapat menemani saya pergi ke sekolah untuk menduduki peperiksaan penting. Ketika hari sudah siang, terik panas matahari mulai menyinari, ibu terus sabar menunggu saya di luar dewan. Ibu seringkali saja tersenyum dan mulutnya terkumat-kamit berdoa kepada Illahi agar saya lulus ujian peperiksaan ini dengan cemerlang. Ketika loceng berbunyi menandakan ujian sudah selesai, ibu dengan segera menyambut saya dan menuangkan kopi yang sudah disiapkan dalam botol yang dibawanya. Kopi yang kental itu tidak dapat dibandingkan dengan kasih saying ibu yang jauh lebih kental. Melihat tubuh ibu yang dibasahi peluh, saya segera memberikan cawan saya itu kepada ibu dan menyuruhnya minum. Tapi ibu cepat-cepat menolaknya dan berkata : "Minumlah nak, ibu tak haus!!" – PEMBOHONGAN IBU YANG KEEMPAT.
.
Setelah pemergian ayah kerana sakit, iaitu selepas saya baru beberapa bulan dilahirkan, ibulah yang mengambil tugas sebagai ayah kepada kami sekeluarga. Ibu bekerja mengambil upah di kebun, membuat penyapu lidi dan menjual kuih-muih agar kami tidak kelaparan. Tapi apalah sangat kudrat seorang ibu. Kehidupan keluarga kami semakin susah dan susah. Melihat keadaan keluarga yang semakin parah, seorang pakcik yang baik hati dan tinggal berjiran dengan kami, datang untuk membantu ibu. Anehnya, ibu menolak bantuan itu. Jiran-jiran sering kali menasihati ibu supaya menikah lagi agar ada seorang lelaki yang akan menjaga dan mencarikan wang untuk kami sekeluarga. Tetapi ibu yang keras hatinya tidak mengendahkan nasihat mereka. Ibu berkata : "Saya tidak perlukan cinta saya tidak perlukan lelaki." – PEMBOHONGAN IBU YANG KELIMA.
.
Setelah kakak dan abang habis belajar dan mula bekerja, ibu sudah pun tua. Kakak dan abang menyuruh ibu supaya berehat sahaja di rumah. Tidak payahlah lagi bersusah payah dan bersengkang mata untuk mencari duit. Tetapi ibu tidak mahu. Ibu rela pergi ke pasar setiap pagi menjual sedikit sayur untuk memenuhi keperluan hidupnya. Kakak dan abang yang bekerja jauh di kota besar sering mengirimkan wang untuk membantu memenuhi keperluan ibu, pun begitu ibu tetap berkeras tidak mahu menerima wang tersebut. Malahan ibu mengirim balik wang itu dan ibu berkata : "Jangan susah-susah, ibu ada duit."– PEMBOHONGAN IBU YANG KEENAM.
.
Setelah tamat pengajian di universiti, saya melanjutkan lagi pelajaran ke peringkat sarjana di luar Negara. Pengajian saya di sana dibiayai sepenuhnya oleh sebuah syarikat besar. Sarjana itu saya sudahi dengan cemerlang,kemudian saya pun bekerja dengan syarikat yang telah membiayai pengajian saya juga di luar negara. Dengan gaji yang agak lumayan, saya berhajat membawa ibu untuk menikmati penghujung hidupnya di luar negara. Pada pandangan saya, ibu sudah puas bersusah payah untuk kami. Hampir seluruh hidupnya habis dengan penderitaan, eloklah kalau hari-hari tuanya ini ibu habiskan dengan keceriaan dan keindahan pula. Tetapi ibu yang baik hati, menolak ajakan saya. Ibu tidak mahu menyusahkan anaknya ini dengan berkata ; "Tak payahlah, ibu tak biasa tinggal di negara orang." – PEMBOHONGAN IBU YANG KETUJUH.
.
Beberapa tahun berlalu, ibu semakin tua.. Suatu malam saya menerima berita ibu diserang penyakit kanser. Ibu mesti dibedah secepat mungkin. Saya yang ketika itu berada jauh diseberang samudera terus segera pulang untuk menjenguk ibunda tercinta. Saya melihat ibu terbaring lemah di katil hospital setelah menjalani pembedahan. Ibu yang kelihatan sangat tua, menatap ajah saya dengan penuh kerinduan. Ibu menhadiahkan saya sebuah senyuman biarpun agak kaku kerana terpaksa menahan sakit yang menjalari setiap inci tubuhnya.. Saya dapat melihat dengan jelas betapa penyakit itu telah memamah tubuh ibu sehingga ibu menjadi terlalu lemah dan kurus.
.
Saya menatap wajah ibu sambil berlinangan air mata. Saya cium tangan ibu kemudian saya kecup pula pipi dan dahinya. Di saat itu hati saya terlalu pedih, sakit sekali melihat ibu dalam keadaan seperti ini. Tetapi ibu tetap tersenyum dan berkata : "Jangan menangis nak, ibu tak sakit." – PEMBOHONGAN IBU YANG KELAPAN.
.
Anda bertuah kerana masih mempunyai ibu dan ayah. Anda boleh memeluk dan menciumnya. Kalau ibu anda jauh dari mata, anda boleh menelefonnya sekarang, dan berkata, 'Ibu,saya sayangkan ibu.' Tapi tidak saya. Sehingga kini saya diburu rasa bersalah yang amat sangat kerana biarpun saya mengasihi ibu lebi dari segala-galanya, tapi tidak pernah sealipun saya membisikkan kata-kata itu ke telinga ibu. Ibu, maafkan saya. Saya sayangkan ibu…

Alif ada exam

Assalamualaikum & Goodday

Alif has got an exam today. Imagine a 3 and a half year old sitting for an exam. Things kids have to endure nowadays eh.

I think when i was at his age i did nothing but glued myself to the tv. Watching cartoons and singapore's kids programme (my family & I were living in JB then).

Anyways, he seems excited about the exam. Last nite my wife and alif had a revision session. at 10.30 pm i asked him to go to sleep. You know what.....he refused!!! He wanted to continue with the revision. Sooo the rajin one anak aku nih. Totally the opposite of me. I think mebbe ikut his mama kot.

Hope he'll be successful la. My mother always says that even if we are not smart enough, but if we work hard we'll be successful, insya allah. So to Alif, keep on the hardwork and abah will always pray for you.

I got this from Aishah's blog. Tq esah, aku terpaksa kidnap balik gambor nih :)

Last Sunday i went to Padang Polo for my weekends run. Nope...run is actually an overstatement. Jog would be the proper word :) Anyways, as i was jogging, suddenly i heard a scream. A woman was screaming like crazy. I stopped and watched. Rupanya, anak dia hilang. Kesian plak aku tgk. So i continue with my jog and at the same looking for a little girl.

I finished another round but couldnt find the girl, when i reached the same spot the mother and daughter were oredi reunited. Alhamdullilah. The girl was crying and the mother was crying too. And at the same time was lecturing her daughter. I didnt know what she said cause it was in chinese. But i guess something like any mother would say to her missing daughter lah.

Sib baik jumpa kan. If not it would very ironic to the mother as she was enjoying Mother's Day and at the same lose a child.

So ok la beb. Gotta go now. Happy Belated Mother's Day!!!

Konpem dah

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
Last week i got my confirmation letter. So now, no more acting, I'm a confirmed M44 officer. Alhamdulillah....it's all God's doings.
Ekceli i've known about the confirmation via someone i never expected. THE SECOND BIG BOSS!!!. He SMSed me on Monday : Tahniah anda telah dinaikkan pangkat ke M44 sejak 30 Oktober 2007!
I was like terperanjat beruk you know. Not because of the confirmation, but because of the sms. I never tot the boss cared about a low level officer like me. Good for him lah.
When you are at the bottom of the chain, and someone higher up send you a simple sms like this, it means a lot lah. It might a PR exercise for him, but i really appreciated it. Thanks so much lah Dato', you made my day lah.
Just to explain how promotion in the government works. When you are promoted, you cant straight away assume the post, you have to go a probation period. During the probation period, you are just an acting officer for that post/grade. You have to fullfill all the prerequistes (i.e exams, courses etc etc) before JPA can confirm you.
So now, my friends are talking about promotion again. To me, i'm excited about promotion, but it comes to the actual work, i think it might be too early for me lah. To be in middle management is not easy, you think working in government is easy eh? No way man. I know you guys are skeptical, try it yourself then only you'll know.
Anyways, I'm all game for promotion, sapa taknak wei.... I just hope that it wont be that soon. At least wait till Akif is 1 year old. Then it'll easier to plan. For now, i just want to concentrate on the job yang kat depan mata nih. Kalo ada rezeki ada la, kalo takde pon aku redha :)
------------------------------
Some observation on Malay Dilemma
I realized that some Malays actually hate themselves for being Malays. Most of them usually practise very little of the malay culture and is more open toward life.
Moreover, they expect the not-so-open Malays to accept them as they are. Unfortunately, Malays are Malays, and it is hard for the not-so-open Malays to accept something that is too not Malay. Hence, the conflict of hating oneself being a Malay - presure from the society.
To me, the Malays need to change their perspective toward life, especially the malas & PHD attitude. But changing too much is also unwarranted lest we'll lose our identity. Be like the Japanese, they are sooooo advance in everything and yet preserve their culture and heritage.
Come on people, if you want to be different, dont look down on those who cant accept the changes just yet. Explain and justify it. And for those who's still stubborn to accept changes, dont flatly reject it, try to listen to the explanation. Offcourse they are not always right, but you too might make mistakes once in a while. Compromise la beb....

My Boys

Assalamualaikum & Good Day

Somebody commented that i dont have enough pics in my blog. True lah :) Dont have enough time la to upload the pics and my pc oso is not a big help la. So much for technology eh.

Anyways, last sunday i watched CJ7. It's a little bit different from the other Stephen Chow's films. The comedy is still there. But this has got some drama in it. Quite sad ekceli. It's a good movie to watch, so go and watch it.

Here are some pics of my boys :)

Alif has got a new bike. We bought it for his 3rd birthday.

Aisehmen

Today is actually my running day. I sooo want to run today coz i missed 1 session on Monday due to heavy rain. So i've decided dat today rain or shine i'll run.

But just now got a call from my beloved wife that potong everything. We need to go to pasar malam la pulak. Supplies are running low.

What to do....family first rite....the fat in my stomach could have a party lah today, but comes tomoro siap nko.

p/s: mebbe i can run tonite eh...

Fitna

Jakarta, 1 April (AKI) - Indonesia has banned the controversial anti-Koran film by the Dutch right-wing MP, Geert Wilders.
.
The Indonesian president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono called for calm in the mainly Muslim nation on Tuesday and said that Wilders would also be barred from entering the country.


I salute you Bapak SBY. Somehow i sometimes adore this Indonesian President. He's easily a much better president compared to his predecessors. Just wondering whether Malaysia, the home of the OIC Chairman will do the same thing :P

Boycott Dutch!

Of Change and Promotion

Assalamualaikum & Goodday

It's been a pretty boring working environment for last couple of weeks. The morale of the staffs seems to be at a very low level. The smiles are still there but i know it's a fake one. I guess its a process. They need some time to adjust to the new environment. True, we have a new boss, and we have to work according to his style. But the truth is, we are just humans. There are certain sentimental values that are still blocking the effort to change.

As for me, I'm not happy too. I was brought in by the previous boss and now the new boss wants to retain me. In a way, i feel if I stay, i'll be like a mercenary - no loyalty. I'm contemplating the possibility to transfer out to another division.

This is not about ideology, it's about doing your job with honesty and integrity. If I cannot perform 100%, what's the point of staying? Betul tak? At the end of the day, i need to feed my family with my salary rite? but if the salary is not 'berkat' as a result of me not being committed, what's the point?

On a more positive note, i heard that our batch is going to be promoted soon (soon is actually an overstatement ok) so if that is true, i might wait for a while la. We were last promoted in late 2006. But offcourse la, there are so many rumours regarding our promotion. Some say we are too young and inexperience and thus, we have to wait for a little while.

Literally, I agree la. We've been serving for only 4 years and 2 months. If we are promoted now, our seniors would be very envy of us la. During their time, it will take at least 15 years to be promoted.

Frankly, eventhough we are young, we are actually capable. Some bosses dont even know what's going on in his units. They actually have to bring us along whenever the big boss calls for a meeting lest they cannot answer. The only thing that my colleagues and i lack is that we have too much respect for the seniors eventhough they are not always right. It's a tradition thingy la. Because of this, we may not be able to carry our jobs effectively if we are promoted.

I think i'll let fate do the job for me la. I cant really think right now. Everything is gloomy and blurry. All i can think while at the office is to go back and play with my boys. And now, i have to endure another five hours before i can go home. and it gonna a slow and boring wait la.

see ya!

Aku Tatau La

Assalamualaikum & Goodday

It has been more than a week since PRU 12. The people have spoken. However, there are mixed feelings among Malaysians.

One group is still celebrating their victory and the other are still cracking their heads just to understand what went wrong.

There is also a group of people who had admitted that they had made a wrong move by voting a party which they dont really support but they did it because they wanted to teach the other party a lesson. They never thought that their votes would lead to their anxiousness.

Another group of people who call themselve urbanites, said to me, 'we chose to be liberal instead of racial, we dont need protection from the government, and we are not afraid with competition, we will survive no matter who is in power'. Hmmm....arrogance....remember my friends, GOD doesnt like people with big heads. Mebbe u should mince your words a bit lah. Who knows one day u gonna have to eat it back.

A guy came to me and told me that he was ecstatic with the recent PRU result. He and his friends were actually in a party mood on 8 and 9 of March but then.... they realized that they won the 'cheerleading contest' but he and his friends actually lost the battle (menang sorak, kampung tergadai)

As for me, i want to associate myself with one of the groups, but as a government servant, i do have certain ethics to adhere to. So i keep my mouth shut. As far as I am concern, the gomen people have taken their oaths to serve the people & country. Business as usual lah.

People keep asking me the soalan cepu mas: Saper MB ni rul? Bila nak lantik ni? Confirm ke dia jadi MB Perak?

Aiseymen....how la am i suppose to know the answer. Dont they watch TV? Everything is on the TV lah. But nooooo.....they still come to me with the same question. For the first couple of days, i still can tahan, but if u being bombarded with the same questions over and over again, it kinda sucks, ok. How many times do i have to tell them - AKU TATAU LA!!! ehehehhe....

Anyways, i feel that Malaysians nowadays are smarter than before. However, we do lack something. We lack the ability to form our own judgement. Most of the time we tend to believe the bad side of the story. We never wanted to believe the good ones. Simply because it is not sensational :P to make it worst, the story comes from a friend who doesnt even have the credibility, and offcourse he will add some extra spices just to make it tastier and believable.

Some of us judge from observation, but we never tried to really understand the situation. Example, let say there's a driver who drives dangerously, we would simply label him as crazy, stupid or kurang hajo. We never know, mebbe he's transporting a very sick man to the hospital. Usually we will never know coz we never wanted the truth, we just to believe what we want to believe.

My point is, we should gather all info, the good ones & the bad ones. Then only we could form the conclusion and decide on what we want to believe.

ok la peeps. see ya later.

Mari lah mari kita mengundi

Assalamualaikum & Goodday

Tomorrow is D-Day....Polling Day. Who are you going to vote for? Dont tell ok. Undi itu rahsia. Doesnt matter whether u r voting for the government or the opposition, the only thing that matters is dat u go out n vote. It's a free country what.....So choose wisely.....

As for me i'll be casting my vote here at Sekolah Kebangsaan Pengkalan Lahat. Still contemplating when to vote thou. Dont want to get stuck in the long line lah.

in 2004, i didnt vote :) i had to work so couldnt get back to ipoh (alasan je sebnarnya...aku malas nak drive balik) i was working at bukit aman that day. even when the PM celebrated his victory i was still in bukit aman. i only clocked out the next morning. boring eh....

sepanjang tempoh kempen ni, macam2 orang aku jumpa. some are so semangat (tak kira la samada kerajaan or pembangkang) some just couldnt care less.

i asked this one young guy whether he's going to vote or not. he said he is malas to go out and vote. i told him that he's wasting his rights. he said he dont mind. if anything happens to this country he'll migrate to somewhere else. cheh.....i feel that this guy should migrate now lah. he has no heart for this country at all. and malaysia will not cry if she looses people with this attitude.

i ekceli dont mind if he doesnt want to vote. hak masing-masing. i'm only frustrated that he has no love for the country. i just cannot understand that. why would people migrate to other countries. the grass is always greener on the other side they say. ehehehhe....full of BS lah.

susah la kalo nak citer pasal patriotism nih kan. mebbe next time lah. as for now, i dont have the energy to write lah. i just want to rest.

so jangan lupa keluar mengundi besok ye. and undilah dengan bijak. your future is in your hands :)

I AM MUSLIM

Assalamualaikum & Goodday

"abt 'i am muslim' - i dono if u'd appreciate this book bcos ko mmg dah alim beb"

hehehehh....dat was zid's comment on my last entry (which was centuries ago :P). Aku alim ek zid? i wish la. but i do appreciate the comment.

frankly, i'm not an alim guy la. believe me....i'm not. i was a better muslim when i was in school (due to my school's orientation la). then, i used to memorize surah as-sajjadah, al mulk, and some of the short surahs. i did my sembahyang sunat, read the Al-Mathurat and etc, etc. well, that was then.

sincerely, i miss those moments. i guess it's true then, if u wanna be an alim person, make sure u hang out with alim people. i'm very thankful to my parents for sending me to an islamic school eventhou i strongly objected :P b

my early days in ppp was confusing. ppp exposed the real deal of life. i was shocked when i saw a couple holding hands, boys & girls sitting together in one table. i just couldnt accept it. i tot these people were 'rosak akhlak'. i was in a dilemma. 'a dilemma of an ex budak sekolah agama'. then i realized that this was the real challenge as a muslim.

when i was in school, i was not challenged. i mean all the girls wore tudungs, courting (yup we do have couples in a sekolah agama ok) was done in a very conservative manner ie. send notes instead of meeting and chatting. the only time we could have a taste of 'maksiat' & 'lagho'ness is when we went for outing in seremban. itu pon, tak sempat nak layan lama2 coz when we got we back to school we were again fed with all the islamic values. somehow we repented due to the constant reminder. dat's why i was a better muslim then.

in ppp, the good muslim in me started to shy away. slowly & convincingly. i started to allow myself to sin with the thinking 'sekali-sekala apa salahnya'. things that i never tot i'd do, i did. ie wearing short masa main hoki. some would say 'alaa....pakai short pon nak kecoh ke?'. well, what's haram is always haram rite. it's true that wearing short didnt make me a bad person, but was i a good muslim?

i could still remember the guilty feeling i had while i was playing in shorts then. in my mind 'jangan la aku mati masa tengah pakai short nih....hiiiii sumpah lepas ni taknak pakai dah'. ehehhe...tapi since i'm weak, lepas tu pakai jugak la. poyo....

now, i'm still struggling to be a muslim i was nearly 14 years ago. i think i'm getting there la. to me, b4 u try something advance such as tarikat, sufi, make sure u fullfill the rukun islam & rukun iman first. once that is covered only u can proceed. remember :

ilmu tanpa amal itu rugi
amal tanpa ilmu itu gila

rite now i'm in the former punya group. which is bad. if u have the knowledge but still cant refrain urself from doing bad things, how? dunno la how to answer to God when he asks nanti. i'm so weak and helpless la.

anyways, about I AM MUSLIM. I had a mixed feeling after reading it. i was a bit frustrated coz i was expecting some real opinion by the writer. i feel that dina was only compiling her own and other people's experience on practicing the religion but she keeps her own opinion close to her chest. she never really expressed her own stand on the issues discussed. instead, she usually leaves the issue hanging so that we could form our own opinion. which is very good too. readers would have the opportunity to reevaluate him/herself after reading it.

all in all, there is a reason why we are all 'confused' muslim. to me, it's due to our inability to vision our lives beyond this world. we say we believe in the afterlife (beriman kepada hari kiamat), but we never really believe it, do we? coz if we do, we'd never do the things we do ie. tak semayang, tak pose, tak tutup aurat, tak baca quran, tak ajar isteri & anak2 kita pasal islam (nih utk para suami la ye)etc etc.

but always remember that God is Most Gracious Most Merciful. as long as we show that we are serious, sincere and determine to be on His path, He will grant us the will to do so. dat my frens, is the toughest challenge of all, to be serious, sincere and determine....

ok la babai. Dont forget to VOTE eh!!!! Exercise your rites!!!!

Perlumbaan Yang Menakjubkan Asia

Assalamualaikum & Goodday
.

Paula & Natasya came in last today. Fortunately, they were not eliminated. Yeayyy!!! I like them. Paula is so cute :) She reminds me of a friend of mine, who i have not met since 2003. Thanks to the www, we still keep in touch. Anyways, at one point, they were at second place but somehow they fumbled and the other teams overtook them.

.

My favourite team would be Marc & Rovilson. I think they've been working so hard and they deserve to win. Collin and Adrian are good too. But just not good enuf la. May the best team win.

Tan Sri Megat Junid Megat Ayub passed away yesterday. So let us take a minute and recite al-fatihah. Al-Fatihah.
.

1234567890987654321
.

I'm currently reading I Am Muslim. So far ok la. My first book of a Malaysian author. Before this ada jugak, tapi bahasa melayu la kan. I'm so looking forward to read this book coz amy & zid gave a good review. I'm a little skeptical thou. Well just gimme a couple of weeks and i'll give my own review.
.

.

Alif is adjusting well with his little brother. But sometimes ada jugak la buat aksi2 terlampau. I know why, he feels boring. Maklum la anak manja mama dia. But now since hanim is busy with the baby, he has to share lah. That's why now i always make sure that i spend some quality time with him. Just to make sure he knows that we still love him.

.

Anyways, last week dia ada buat lawak. My wife was arranging the baby's bakul and alif was there too. He keeps kacauing my wife until she got so geram and marah him. His reply was ' Alif bukan Ah Long, Alif nak tolong jee....'. ahahahah....kids nowadays....my wife yang nak marah terus tak jadi marah....:D

.

so ok la. i dunno what to merepek anymore. have a nice day!
