I wonder what the bird was thinking

I wonder what the bird was thinking

Hello little birdie, what do you have in store for me for 2009?

Ever been to a segregated wedding?

It was my first yesterday, di Sabak Bernam. Damn ralat sbb I have to sit with the ladies, dah lah I did't know anyone there! I think majlis kahwin di Kelantan pun takde kena duduk asing2 (I could be wrong). The last time I was told to sit away from the men was ketika di UIA so macam dejavu pulak. Not having to sit with R means kalau I tak habis makan, I won't be able to ask him to finish it! Deng.

Masa nak ambil nasi, ada akak2 ni tukang jaga nasi. Then one of them them hulurkan tangan. Aik? Isn't she supposed to scoop nasi for me? Oh woops, kena salam dulu! Baru boleh ambil nasi! I know, I am damn jakun-slash-ignorant. Itupun they were giving me a dirty look because I asked for nasi lebih. How can I not ask for nasi lebih when I can already see the glorious food served - my favorite lauk kuning with ikan masin & nenas (I donno the name, I told you I'm ignorant), ayam goreng, some other delicious-looking lauks dan mountains of kacang botol and more ikan masin. Siap ada kerepek pisang on the table. I'm sold. I want to live in Sabak Bernam and eat this everyday!

Ketika pengantin sedang bersanding (bersertakan kompang/zikir dalam bahasa yang tidak dapat difahami), another guest and I were looking for the meja pengantin. Then the bride and groom disappear. They were already on the floor, makan atas lantai! *jakun mode* I was telling R, kalau-lah majlis kahwin kita we have to eat on the floor, there is no way I can manage that in my super tight corset!

Ketika sedang menanti masa sesuai untuk bergambar dengan pengantin, I asked Syafiq (R's nephew dari Jepun) to think of a name for a baby boy (assuming that I am expecting a boy la hoh). Jadi ini suggestion dia:



Mohd. Aiky. Not bad. Kalau dapat girl, we'll name her Aoki, yay!



Anyway, Mike & Hadis, selamat pengantin baru. It was an interesting wedding. :)

Stuff I don’t like right now (because hate is a strong word):
1. Buat board report. Ngggh. Sudah hujung tahun ni, produktiviti kurang.
2. Bila orang langgar your side mirror di car park. Bukannya gheti nak betulkan balik.
3. Mengambil barang yang jatuh ke lantai

I’m sure there’s more but with my short memory span (a blessing in disguise at times) I can only offer 3 for now.

Anyway, my nephew Danial sudah dipindahkan ke another hospital to start his treatment (soon, I suppose). Tisu bone marrow sudah diambil dan next week we’ll get the result. Pertama kali melangkah masuk ke Wad Hematologi rasa seperti melangkah ke universe lain, di mana penghuni-nya hanya berpakaian hijau dan berkepala botak. Bilik Danial was at the end of the corridor dan setiap langkah ke sana terasa begitu berat sekali. Kiri, kanan, semua-nya botak. Ada yang ber-congregate sesama mereka (they look happy), ada yang terlantar (they look sad), ada yang bersama keluarga. Danial was playing Monopoly with a 24 year old guy bersama tunangnya. The guy has leukemia, dan ini kali kedua dia menjadi penghuni wad tersebut. For now, Danial seorang sahaja yang masih berambut dan memakai t-shirt comic yang aku hadiahkan untuknya, a stark contrast from penghuni2 lain di situ. Dia juga sudah pandai mengusik nurse2 dan guard2 wanita di situ, but hey that runs in the family. :)

Yesterday we spent a little bit of time di bilik TV menonton Spa Q (Danial’s room is too cold and miserable). Apabila masuk azan Maghrib, kami minta diri untuk pulang but he asked for us to stay a bit longer. By 7:30, I had to say my goodbye, lagipun this little light bulb dalam perut sudah mula mengaum kelaparan. Danial kelihatan sedikit kecewa, but we promised we’ll come back again over the weekend. Perhaps with a new board game, to ease the boredom a little. I wish I can spend more time with him before he starts chemo because by the time the real misery begins, when he starts losing his hair, when he starts vomiting, crying for help, I’m not sure if can be strong enough for him. It’s just so difficult right now.

In my head, I scream THINK HAPPY! But who am I kidding. For now I’m just grateful that my pregnancy tidak memberikan banyak masalah. I suppose this kid in my belly is giving me all the strength that I need. If I could clone myself. I would. To be a good wife, a devoted aunt, a stellar employee, a caring sister, a happier mother-to-be. Guess I have to work a little harder on that.

(updated: Danial gets to home until the 30th Dec! Alhamdulillah)

Seribu resah di sini. Tapi kita angkat dagu, sapu air mata, pujuk kandungan, teruskan hidup.

Aduh jika drama Rashid Sibir ni asyik go back-and-forth ke flashback sahaja, I think I need something else to watch.

Anyway, ketika dinner di Kelfood tadi, ada makcik tua jual kerepek ni mengeluh kenapa orang sekarang taknak beli kerepek. I wasn't really listening to her, because I get very emotional when I see old people but here are the problems:
1. She wasn't the only selling kerepek there. Before her, there was already 2 ppl selling kerepek, including one brader ska-alim berbahasa Kelantan menjual keropok dan seorang lelaki yang diragui kewarganegaraannya (wow a mouthful!) meminta sedekah - for what, I don't know, but standard lah, pegang file yang berisi surat yang diakui kerajaan.
2. I have more than 4 jenis kerepek at home! I get my supply of kerepek(s) di pasar tani berhampiran pejabat, tak tahulah dibuat di mana, tetapi sangat sedap.

Hmm itu sahaja lah. Melihat makcik tu sudah cukup membuat aku rasa sedikit depressed. Ditambah dengan perbualan bersama ibu sendiri yang menambahkan gundah-gulana. Tambah dengan drama brader Sibir ni pula (alahai drama antara dua darjat is SO yesterday). Masuk tidur awal lagi bagus.

Oh by the way, wahai contractor2 JKR yang rajin sangat nak tar jalan awal2 malam tu (pukul 10 malam) I am sure that you are aware of the massive jam you guys are causing. Tak boleh ke tar jalan lambat sedikit, some of us pukul 10 malam baru nak balik rumah dari office okay!

I am watching Perempuan, Wanita and Dot Dot Dot untuk kali ke berapa sudah. I have to go to work later in the afternoon and hopefully I can get some work done. Begitu banyak sekali kerja yang perlu disiapkan. Sebab apa? Sebab it's so hard to hire people with good writing skills. So if you think you know finance and investment, know how to work the Bloomberg terminal and loves to write and doesn't mind melayan kerenah Americans, I want you! (to suffer with me)

Tengah check out baju kebaya tadi then MIL said "Tak payah tengok, tunggu sampai bersalin".
*sulks into a corner, then emerges minutes later*


Tok Guru on Off The Edge! My hero. And Mr. Barack H.

Minggu ini minggu membaca. But they're not helping to drown things/sounds/fear.

Tengah lipat baju ni. Another round of laundry sedang di air-dry. On TV is some show about Ustaz Azizi mengubat orang yang kena rasuk or something. Tengah contemplate melipat kain cadar yang besar itu which is why I am updating now, tengah tunggu feel untuk melakukan/membuat such a big task. I normally make fun of RashidSibir's drama tapi semalam, aergh, mana aci pikat penonton dengan scene M. Rajoli baca al-Quran. Haih, apa lagi, Kleenex time-lah. Would be nice if I get to see arwah Baba menghabiskan masa tua-nya membaca al-Quran. But the past is past.

Today I'm gonna go out shopping after I watch Melodi. Sudah berhari-hari office pantry menjadi gelanggang hangat mengutuk Norman Hakim keh keh. Poor guy. Siap sembahyang istikharah panggil press tu! This beats drama RashidSibir anytime.

Morning thoughts:

I figured kalau JAKIM/Majlis Fatwa/somesuperpowerwithnobrains mahu mengharamkam yoga, they might as well look into Muslims yang belajar Indian classical dance. Ever wondered if they've been praying 5 times a day? Hmm? Yoga helped me to get through some of my darkest days while trying to nurse a broken heart and it made a huge difference for me yang memang malas exercise. So yeah, that's my testimonial. Look around you, while we turn a blind eye on teenage couples meraba sana sini in public, we're wasting our time and effort trying to haram-kan something that is good for the body, soul and mind. So no brownie points for you Mr. Mufti!

Another thing that will not be getting any brownie points from me is EPF. Excuse me, i like my 11% caruman. So, those losers yang nak kurangkan their caruman to 8%, they're the ones who should isi borang la! Why us? We all know that by the time we retire, our EPF savings can only last for 3 years so fikir-fikirkan lah ye. 3% cannot buy you anything. Keep it. You'll be thanking me when you're old.

Sekian terima kasih. I'm gonna eat my 2nd roti canai now.

Hello.

Walaupun mengamalkan ajaran The Secret (Ask. Believe. Receive. Gratitude. Visualization) but ini sebenarnya kuasa Allah yang Maha Esa semata-mata dan maha mendengar doa (dan rintihan hamba-Nya).

I am 12 weeks pregnant. (addendum: woops, my bad, i'm 13 weeks preggers, man, I can't count)

In other words, aku sudah berjaya melepasi zon trimester (tanpa muntah2, Alhamdulillah) dan bolehlah untuk bercerita pada semua orang – yes, i’m pregnant! Yeahoo! (cuma R yang tak sabar memberitahu dunia-nya terlebih awal dengan memberitahu universe Twitter-nya – tapi berjaya di-delete dengan bantuan Cik Li before anyone sees it dan blog-nya sudah ada unsur-unsur ke-bapa-an). Too soon perhaps? We’ve been married for 4 months, inai masih di jari, masih lagi mencari kesesuaian/keserasian hidup bersama but rezeki adalah rezeki. Mungkin buat masa sekarang aku terpaksa letak di tepi dahulu borang permohonan biasiswa Chevening atau resume yang perlu dihantar ke World Bank (yes, there is an opening based in DC) atau Wii Fit yang sudah lama menjadi idaman itu but for now i need to concentrate on this miracle that is growing in my belly.

Everyday I am engulfed by fear – what if our baby grows up to be someone yang rude dan tidak mendengar kata, what if dia tidak pandai mempertahankan dirinya apabila dibuli rakan sekolah/majikan, what if dia tidak sihat, what if dia tak minat music & poetry & bad drama Melayu yang telah menyatukan ibu bapanya? Terlalu banyak ‘what ifs’ dibandingkan dengan ‘Alhamdulillah jika...”. Berat rasanya beban untuk sentiasa berfikiran positif but insyaAllah I will do my best.

To my friends who have not seen me since forever, aku minta maaf. Tiap kali aku tengok cermin rasa macam mahu di-spray paint sahaja cermin itu. Aku “serabai segala” these days! I know we will meet soon, when i feel good enough about myself. And don’t get me started on how stubborn and annoying i’ve been these days. ;)

So yeah, business as usual at this ranting space. This will not be a “my journey throughout pregnancy” blog i promise (sorry Li!).

Ada ulang tayang Lima on Astro Ria jika mahu nonton.

(oh Abang Laywer Handsome!)

Not sure I'm loving the new Dewa 19 track.

Rasanya mood Raya sudah tiada, it’s back to the usual grind at the office. Lagipun membaca Wall Street Journal dan The Edge Singapore semakin menggigit jari mengalahkan bacaan fiksyen. Aku sudah tak larat nak keep up with the market news (because I keep having to change the information in my write-ups or press releases), but nak tak nak terpaksa baca juga sambil gigit knuckles pula, memikirkan kemungkinan besar bonus tahun depan akan susut jika keadaan ekonomi terus terkapai-kapai kelemasan sebegini. Please do not mention "free-falling" in front of me! Oh well, I suppose rezeki ada di mana-mana, and it doesn’t have to come in the form of money.

Few things to share during the recent balik kampung trip :

1. Pilot MAS cakap dialek Kelantan on board. A nice change.
2. Opposite Istana Batu, there is a cultural village of some sort and also a restaurant that sells nasi ulam. Discovered lauk ikan patin asam pedas meets masak lemak, but with a Kelantan twist, because it was slightly sweet. Tapi sedap!
3. Ketika aku sedang menyidai baju di bawah rumah nenek, my youngest niece si Ayn was running around scaring everyone with a ‘tali’ and she was going “Eeeee, ular, ular”. Of course la I completely brushed her off. Then my other niece took a closer look and alamak, she’s playing with kulit ular! Apa lagi, lintang-pukang lah Cik Nate lari naik atas rumah hehe.
4. My youngest brother is so hopelessly in love. Checking his jiwang SMS-es made me wanna to vomit (sorry I have to play the over-protective sister here, awek gila dia tu asyik suruh dia jadi supir je). Bonus points if i get to understand the bahasa SMS though. Yuck.
5. Akibat kebosanan, my eldest nephew sudah buat music video shuffle-nya dengan bantuan Husband sebagai jurukamera. Will upload it on youtube jikalau connection is good. Which I doubt I’ll do it.
6. Fairul Nizam telah menjadi pelanggan feveret akak yang jual nasi dagang. Read here: Perihal Nasi Dagang..

Okay lah. Back to doing laundry. Nerissa jemput makan tengahari di rumahnya today. Dia beri jaminan sambal belacan uncle-nya pasti meletup. I hope she's right. :)

only in Kota Bharu

this is a happy public toilet

Tahun ini rasanya Raya paling best. :)

Semalam we went to Wisma PKNS at ShahAlam to buy baju kurung Raya. I think it’s my first real baju Raya since my father died.

We will be in Selangor on the first day of Raya and off to good ol’ Kelate until next Monday. I’ll only be on Twitter for now.

Selamat Hari Raya, and Maaf Zahir & Batin peeps!

Semalam berakhir sudah rancangan kegemaran aku. Selepas ini tiada lagi Lima dan eye candy, Abang Lawyer Handsome yang membantu NamRon untuk menjejaki semula keluarganya. Bila ada commercial break, sempat menonton Bersamamu. Kenapa dalam dunia ini masih ada warga2 tua yang hidup susah?!? You know, I cry everytime I watch Bersamamu, I know I’m super weak to watch it but noooooo, nak jugak tengok. Padan muka aku. I’m just a sap at heart. Even watching Pink’s latest video makes me want to cry because I think Pink and Corey Hart should stay together forever and ever.

Few more days to go before Raya! But masih di dalam mode ‘kerja-banyak-rasa-macam-nak-resign-24-hours’. Duit Raya sudah ditukar, biskut Raya sudah dibeli, hotel sudah di-book, jadi tinggal apa lagi? Oh, nak pack baju. Tak suka!

Gourd, how tragic is Lima kan? (The mini series on Astro Ria - Monday to Rabu - 9pm). It's really good though. Memang agak tension sikit apabila menontonnya but man, I'm hooked!

I can't be everybody’s moral police. Especially when I’m passing by the emerging stairs (it’s the fastest way to get to the loo) and I can smell food and ciggies, and men talking in low voices. Hai, bang, takkan tak puasa kot? There’s 20+ floors here, it could be anyone. It could be a team of lawyers, analysts or bankers, but I can only confirm that they are sekumpulan Muslim yang tak malu dan semoga dapat pembalasan yang sewajarnya di akhirat kelak. Benci.

Anyway, if you ever go to pasaramadhan at TTDI, if there’s a super friendly guy selling samosa (seringgit satu) – beli! The samosa is very nice.

I always thought J merupakan seorang yang paling bertuah kerana mempunyai seorang datuk yang dihormati ramai, di mana sumbangannya terhadap bidang penulisan dan journalism tiada tandingan. I suppose J inherited most of his traits - her love for books and kebijaksanaanya ketika kami menuntut sastera Inggeris satu ketika dulu mmg membuatkan aku cemburu. It was so easy for her, sedangkan aku terpaksa bertungkus-lumus untuk lulus. Pasti seronok menjadi cucu kepada seorang ilmuwan yang begitu banyak berjasa kepada negara. I don't think I'll ever forget his wide frame glasses (aku sebenarnya takut padanya - rasa kerdil diri ini - siapalah aku!).

Rest in peace, Pak Samad. You're in a better place now.

Al-Fatihah.

Stuck dalam trafik lagi semalam. Wahai muslim dah muslimah yang rushing nak balik rumah atau ke pasaRamadhan tu, harap2 bersabar juga lah ye. Saya pun nak balik juga. Tak perlu jadi pemandu2 super bangsat kerana you tetap akan lambat. Potong sana, cilok sini, tapi tengok, you masih di belakang saya bukan?

Looks like it’s gonna rain sekejap lagi. Not craving anything today. Cuma today harap-harap pasaRamadhan jalan kuching tidak menghampakan (ye walaupun jam sedunia sanggup ku tempuhi jua!).

Semalam di pasaRamadhan TTDI, tiada apa yang menarik. Hanya Din Murtabak mendapat stamp of approval di atas kesedapan murtabaknya. Tak sia-sia beratur panjang. I saw Erra Fazira beratur untuk beli popia basah jadi mungkin tempat tu sedap juga. The rest, brrh. You know I can tell if the ayam percik is any good by just looking at the kuah...

Today maybe mahu terjah the pasaRamadhan near my house. Menu wajib for me is murtabak, so hopefully can get a good one as well today. If the traffic is not as crazy as yesterday, that is.

By the way, I just registered my eldest nephew to attend a PMR workshop this weekend. He’s so gonna kill me! I don’t care, aku nak jugak dia attend workshop tu. Jangan ada geng2 shuffle kat sana sudah. ;p

Tahun lepas, suasana Ramadhan di office lama agak menyeronokkan. Aktiviti bulan Ramadhan diisi dengan tadarus, tazkirah dan juga the annual bubur lambuk percuma untuk hari pertama berpuasa dan juga peluang berbuka dengan anak-anak yatim. Tahun ini di office baru, habuk pun tarak. Soal beribadat, sendiri mahu ingatlah. Dahlah hanya boleh pulang jam 5. sigh.

Oh my life will never be the same again. Semalam berakhirlah episode Tangisan Bulan Madu with a ‘what-the-F’ ending. So next week with no TBM and Gossip Girl – how am I supposed to function?!?

The last time I checked, there are two other drama series yang menggunakan lagu tema yang sama seperti TBM. Lagu Pelangi Petang by Sudirman. *roll eyes* Can they please not imitate one another boleh tak? I’m sure there are other equally sappy songs that they can use.

On a superhero note, aku sudah report pada WWF (well I told a friend who used to work for WWF who promised to report to WWF hee hee) tentang Sanktuari (tsk) Gajah di Sg. Ketiar di Tasik Kenyir. I demand the elephants to be released from their chains! Apakenama sanctuary kah ini?!! Yes I understand, they might naik angin and pijak semua orang sampai mati but I believe if the animals are treated right insyaAllah they will respect you back in return.

Sanktuari konon. Pffth.

Hey you guys, Komikoo isu ke-5 sudah berada di pasaran. Absolutely love it kerana Adijin did the cover (been following his 'Siapa' like a fangirl - Great stuff!). Aku rasa cover kali ini begitu chick magnet sekali. I mean, come on, how could you not love the cover kan?

But of course I have to pimp Chee's Pendekar Kungfu in this issue. (dude if you're reading this ayuh ikut kami makan ayam percik di Kelfood - you'll love it)

I must say that this issue is my favorite-lah. Segalanya best eventhough I do wish the cover is kurang nipis but otherwise all is good. And psst, bigger font for the articles please! ;)

Baru nak baik demam ni. Still a long week. I'm watching the news now. Budak2 sekolah kena histeria lagi.

Save the Hysterics. That would make a good band name.

Tadi a friend of mine tanya what is the status of my pengajian Masters yang terbengkalai itu.

I said it’s "permanently on hold". Whatever that means.

I can’t say I miss post-graduate school very much tapi keinginan untuk menghabiskan pelajaran tetap ada walaupun I think by now I have to start all over again (sayangnya I have one more semester to go – damn you to Dante’s Hell subjek 18th Century Enlightenment!).

Tengoklah macam mana.

(which roughly translates to "when I have extra money, time and brains to fry").

Last few weeks, I walked past a lady di pasaraya di Bangsar di mana tudungnya telah terkena tahi burung yang agak banyak. I didn’t have the heart to tell her, but mostly because I was super hungry and my pasta was waiting for me di D*Lish. I hoped and hoped that somebody would have the courtesy to tell her instead.

2 days back, seorang lelaki tua mengerang kesakitan di tepi jalan setelah dilanggar oleh seorang warga asing bermentaliti seperti warga Malaysia yang gemar memandu laju tanpa memikirkan keselematan pengguna2 jalanraya yang lain. I told (paksa) R to stop by the side of the road, just to check whether pakcik itu memerlukan bantuan yang serius. Sekali lagi scenario yang hampir sama, aku mahu mahu membantu lelaki itu tapi aku takut melihat darah, what if I faint when I see the pakcik’s condition?

Aku mahu jadi superhero, tapi aku terlalu selfish dengan menyalahkan kelemahan diri sendiri untuk bertindak.

If you ask me, whenever I see an accident, nak je aku bantu (trust me, I see a LOT of accidents, including today – perhaps I should work part-time as a tonto instead). But apa kan daya, selalunya lelaki yang berkerumun, and it’s not like I have a first aid kit in hand ke (see, excuses excuses). Mungkin aku belum bersedia.

Mungkin baik aku duduk di rumah diam-diam layan Luna Fantasiku sahaja. Hehe.
Speaking of Luna Fantasiku, notice tak, dalam first episode, one scene was shot at Cupcake Chic yang mengadap IKEA itu but ‘kononnya’ scene itu scene di Singapore – because the chick said something like "I have a plane to catch to KL". Pftth, who are you trying to fool!? Benci! Sama benci macam bila scene ‘luar negara’ is normally shot at Cameron Highlands je. ;p

p/s: Happy Birthday to Nini G. And ooh! The new Komikoo is out. Will review it this weekend (sbb Adijin did the cover and mah friend Chee is in it too, woot!)

Kenapalah aku hanya mengingati untuk bernafas (i.e. tarik nafas panjang-panjang) apabila berada di dalam toilet sahaja. Ish, tak sesuai. Sejak mendapat bos baru, memang agak tertekan di ofis sehinggakan lupa untuk bernafas, lupa untuk mengingati diri sendiri bahawa "this is just work" dan rasa seperti tidak mampu lagi untuk menjadi seorang penulis berbakat untuk syarikat.

Sukarnya hidup apabila bekerja dengan high-achievers.

Pada masa beginilah mula rasa seperti mahu mencari kerja yang 'mindless' sahaja. But I don't think I'll be happy (unless they can pay me gadjillion of bucks to be a secretary ke, PA ke hur hur).

I guess for now I just have to hold my head high and march on!

Bah.

Going back to KB this weekend.

(Oh gawd, janganlah panas sangat cuaca di sana)

My current guilty pleasure.

Actually when i first started watching it (on TV2 every selasa & rabu), I didn’t know that it was adapted from a book. Ok fine, doesn’t mean anything to me because kalau buku itu sangat jiwang, then i wouldn’t even touch it with a 10-foot pole! Anyway, I started watching it sebab character-nya nama Bogatt. Bogatt?!? Isn’t that like Humprey Bogart? Ada ke nama orang Melayu macam tu (dalam dunia make-believe – hell yes). Besides, pelakon bagi watak Bogatt itu adalah my classmate masa kursus nikah. Huhu.

In a nutshell, plot-nya agak best. Terlalu panjang untuk diceritakan tapi ia lain dari yang lain (Yusof Haslam could learn a thing or two from this). Tapi dah halfway through ni, plot-nya agak mendatar pula. Missed a couple of episodes, and next thing i know Abang Bogatt is XXXX and his half-brother is xxxxxx [no spoilers hehe].

But of course, like any other mini series, bila dah halfway through, mulalah plotnya menjunam menjadi sesuatu yang agak membosankan. I try to watch it once in a while now tapi macam sudah tak best (sbb Abang Bogatt sudah XXXX!). Sigh.

The other day my sister was like, “Aik, since when did you start watching Malay series?”. Like hello, kerap juga ok! OK fine, only if Aaron Aziz yang berlakon. Or Jehan Miskin. I like him a lot. Walaupun dia hanya baca buku Paolo Coelho. Aku cukup menyampah bila orang kata “I read Coelho” because honey, that does not make you the most philosophic person in the world! But that’s okay. At least dia baca buku.

“poser gila babas”*
Kata Sufian Abas (hey that rhymes!)

* Tatkala dia mendapati muka aku keluar Sunday Star semalam. Dia sentiasa cemburu bila aku lagi femes daripada dia. Huhu!

I know I'm supposed to write about the incident that happened masa kenduri kahwin but I already sold our story to a local newspaper today! Should be out in August. Ha! Ha!

So this week dah buat 2 newspaper interviews for 2 different topics. Can't wait to read them ie kisah diri sendiri di dada akhbar. Vain!

On another newsworthy news: Cita-cita untuk menjadi isteri modern yang tidak memasak terpaksa dikuburkan buat seketika. I actually cooked today (last time I cooked masa finals exam Kemahiran Hidup - that's like 14 years ago!). But berkat resipi Chef Wan, Ayam Goreng Masak Seri Wangi turned out delicious! :D To be honest, I can't say I'm too crazy about cooking (makan luar manyak shiok) but will try to cook at least once a week. Do understand that from my ignorant point of view, cooking is like being in a science lab - if I get the right ingredients and sukatan, maka menjadilah eksperimen aku. *evil laugh*

Alhamdulillah, segalanya sudah selesai i.e. no more make-up tebal, bone-breaking corset and jari-jemari semakin pulih dari menggelupas. I’m now back to work - a working wife dan hopefully after all that we’ve been through to get where we are now, mudah-mudahan we will be happy sampai akhir hayat.

Many thanks to our dear family and friends and bloggers for the undying support dan gifts! The best gift that we got was probably from our poet-friend Azwan Ismail, yang telah menghadiahkan sesuatu yang sangat sesuai. Ish, rahsia-lah, cannot tell dia bagi apa... :) Our sincerest thanks to our beloved photogs as well, CandidSyndrome – Udey & Sofi; Zuhri of Redmedia (yang telah banyak berkorban!) and his team and also the wonder woman Anna Rina who I had so much fun with.

It crossed my mind once in a while that bila aku kahwin nanti, no more blogging for me lah. I think I’ve revealed enough already (with reluctance at times) but I don’t think I can. Those who managed to catch my sister’s speech at my reception would know that this is how I speak my mind, this is how I express my feelings – through writings (yang sometimes does not make sense pun). So in the meantime, business as usual for this space.

Will update later on an incident that happened masa reception, untuk dikongsi bersama.

[updated via vtunnel]

Oh Abang Pierre, when you say that your watak in Sepi is going to be different, I really thought you akan membawa watak jahat ke, police brutal with a sexy lisp ke, but nooooo you tipu I! Like hello, your watak in Sepi is similar like the rest! Bukan you selalu berlakon jadi kekasih yang memahami ke? Kalau setakat jadi {exclude spoiler here}, hello, that's not really different honey!

But oh well, do go see the movie. Nasha Aziz berlakon mmg best kali ni (Pierre Andre can learn a thing or two from her).

Anyway, I laughed out loud watching Gaia this week. My husband made a cameo appearance hehe. Geli hati aku.

There will be another wedding reception on 5th of July (thanks to those who showed up at my reception!). My jari-jemari masih menggelupas like crazy no thanks to the inai. Hopefully they'll be okay by Saturday or else I'm gonna look like someone with a severe disease on my fingers. huargh.

Done & Done

I look forward to see my husband.

Fairul Nizam! You are stuck with me now! *gelak evul*

p/s: Many thanks to dear Shahril Nizam for the original artwork & Prof. Dr. Lim, you are one in a million.

Permohonon untuk tidak memakai inai telah di-reject bulat-bulat oleh pihak keluarga. Oh crap.

Anyway, 2 days back I had the biggest sms fight with my eldest sister. I think this one is an irreparable one, despite her being the key figure to make this wedding ceremony works. Aku sudah beyond kecewa dengan keadaan sekarang, but inilah lumrah dugaan bagi orang-orang yang mahu membina masjid. Drama.

Biarlah si kakak yang merasa 'she wants everything to be perfect therefore i have to listen to her' berada di dalam bubble kemarahannya untuk beberapa hari. Biarlah si adik ini mengubat luka-nya - i have many things to do in the next 7 days. Wedding dress tak siap lagiiiiiiii!!!

Biarlah Bulan Bicara - Broery Marantika

Happy Father's Day. :(

Undilah kawan saya yang bernama Chee!

Di sini: War Heroes Cover Competition.

Dia di Heat 10. Undilah hasil kerja tangan rakyat Malaysia!

p/s: Dia single dan mahu bercinta dengan gadis Melayu. Aku kata please-lah, jangan, Chee jangan.

Akses to blogger di ofis ini kejap berjaya, kejap di-block.

Great, now I can't recall what i wanted to say.

And we fought like children.

Saat-saat macam ni, I need my friends around me. Dan apabila hati terguris sesama teman yang persahabatan telah terbina sekian lama, it hurts more than papercuts, more than your first (and last) heartbreak.

My sister used to tell me that no man is an island. I guess she's right.

[sorrylah entry emo lagi. sejak-sejak akhir ni memang terlalu emosional, i think by 29th June, my frail heart will be the size of a peanut kot]

This morning I was in the office early because ada tele-conference with our American investasi team at 7:30 am. 7:30! Normally aku baru nak bangun waktu begini. Dahlah semalam I stayed back sampai 10pm. Yelah, walaupun bukan selalu tapi rasanya otak sudah berhenti berfungsi sejak jam 6 ptg. Anyway, the Americans minta maaf berbanyak kali kerana terpaksa memilih waktu sebegini. Mereka di sana jam 6:30 ptg, kita 7:30 pagi. Mungkin boleh dienjakkan lagi masa, but our mat salleh counterparts tak suka stay back, they prefer to spend quality time with family after office hours. Wow. Completely different mentality from ours. If we could sleep at the office, we would. Hur hur.

Peribahasa baru:
Jangan berumah di tepi petrol station.

Padan muka aku terpaksa parking kereta di luar dan agak jauh sebab jam teruk di sekitar petrol station. ;p

Mansun - Wide Open Space

I can do whatever I like. So right now, allow me to emo kejap okay.

I don't do the countdown until the big day because he does. I think I'm pretty much livin' up to the gelaran 'most relaxed bride-to-be on Earth!' but honestly I try not to think about it too much. Or else I'll go crazy or sat gi kena nervous breakdown lagi it's not gonna be very pretty. Buat masa sekarang aku sudah dapat projek baru dan ia dijangka dilancar pada 3 Julai. So you can imagine lah how hectic things are for the next couple of weeks until the big date. I really hope I can pull everything off. InsyaAllah.

Okaylah I want to eat McDonald's now. Oh sedapnya Big Mac! ;p

"youlah cakerawala sebab tu gua jadi bintang mintang"

HA ha Ha ha.

Semalam sebab kami banyak sangat komplen tentang cuaca panas, tiba-tiba Kota Bharu hujan ribut selebat-lebatnya. Masa tu I was di bawah rumah Nenda and ya Allah, nasib baik aku ni bukan bersaiz anoreksia - kalau tidak sudah lama dibawa terbang oleh angin kuat.

I'm back in KL now. First thing I bought today was ayam penyet ria di mentari business park, sunway. Hmm sedap juga. Agak terkilan kerana bekalan frozen ayam percik yang telah dijanjikan kepada few ppl tidak dapat ditunaikan sbb sudah sold-out! Mmg frust betul. Laksam/nasi dagang untuk orang2 Kay Ell juga tidak dapat dibeli pagi tadi because i had to catch my flight early in the morning and peniaga-peniaga Kay Bee only starts selling after 7. Oh well, next time okay.

The Queen Mother (Nenda) told my auntie that aku sudah ada ciri-ciri isteri mithali. Huhu. Well, this means a lot to me lah because over the years it's so hard to please her, everything has to perfect. Lipat baju kena perfect size, gaya menyapu sampah kena demure supaya sampah dan habuk tidak terbang, pemakaian harus sopan etc. So yeah, allow me this moment to be extra grateful for the little things that she say right now. :)


Anyway, I have gossip istana! Tentang Tengku Mahkota kesayangan aku tu lah.. Tapi bila fikir balik, eh aku nak share gosip ini dengan siapa ya? Well, whatever happens I wish him all the best lah and pray that he will find real happiness soon.

Greetings from Kota Bharu! I am sitting on my grandmother's wheelchair (couldn't find a better chair) and checking my work emails. Ye, saya tahu, I should just put work aside tapi saya belum punyai Blackberry jadi no choice ma!

Weather is super hot here. Super, super hot. I am sipping my cold cold Coke right now.

Flight dari KL was okay. Sebaik saja take-off, ada 'abe Kelate' sitting behind me pasang lagu rakyat. Kuat pulak tu! I guess dia tidak minat muzak yang dimainkan dalam pesawat MAS. Nak gelak pun ada, saya tahulah awak tak sabar nak balik KB - sebab saya pun tak sabar juga - but you don't have to play the lagu Kelate so loud! ;p

I had nasi dagang for breakfast tadi...

Okay-lah gotta run, nenek sudah tanya sama ada sudah sembahyang Zohor ke belum.... woops.

Hmm lately ni banyak pulak orang lock blog mereka (okay fine, just 2 but still). You know who you are okay - jangan baca entry ini and go "huhhh me?" pulak.

Last weekend ketika makan ayam penyet cinta it turns out that Peterpan was eating at the table behind me. Like omg. Tapi actually Cik Nate buat tak tahu aja.. sebab Ariel takde pun. Because if he was around hell yes I would have posted a pic of us here bebeh.

Semalam first time in so many years aku mengigau. Mimpi kaki diheret di bilik mayat. Bila menjerit, ya Allah seksanya suara nak keluar. Hopefully malam ni takde recurring dreams - tak sanggup beb! Perhaps I should sleep with the lights on tonight.

Ok ciao dulu. I'm going back to KB on Thursday. Tidak terkata keseronokan untuk makan, makan dan makan!

Hmm nothing much to update.

This is the same answer ppl will get bila mereka tanya how's the wedding preparation coming along.

Nothing much to update, because seriously, there's nothing much to update! hehe.

But in the meantime, save the date okay. 29 June. Nanti I send invitation to you allz okay.

[Oh my God I am watching Astro Ria and laughing at Ifa Raziah.]

Actually the process was quite simple. I was just supposed to prick my mom’s finger, tap her blood on the sugar level device and it will tell us samada sugar level Mama tinggi atau tidak.

But I just couldn’t do it. Aku tak sanggup tengok setitik darah pun keluar dari badan Mama. Then I started crying. I couldn’t even get the damn thing to work so I gave up. That was last night.

This morning, my eldest sister ajar aku macam mana nak inject insulin pula. Normally my sisters would do it, and I have been able to avoid the task like a plague for the past 4 weeks. Aku tak sanggup. Tapi kerana tidak mahu menghampakan my family, aku cuba juga. Masa baru nak sukat insulin, aku sudah mula resah. My 2nd niece – si Anis – made a remark to her mother “Makcik macam nak nangis je, Umi?” Apabila jarum kecil itu sudah sedia dengan insulin-nya, my hand started shaking and sekali lagi I started crying, uncontrollably. Tapi my family pujuk juga and in the end, I managed to do it.

It was the longest 10 seconds of my life.

2 nervouse breakdowns. Kalau macam ni lah keadaan aku tiap kali I have to inject insulin, isk, kang tak pasal2 aku pulak yang masuk hospital kang.

I’m sorry Mama, you know how much I love you. Please don’t be disappointed in me. I just need more time and strength to do this.

Well no one ever told me not to mess with budak2 emo/goth/rempit/shuffle di bukit bintang. First of all, we were amused by the sight of schoolkids (including girls around the age 13-15) menari shuffle di tengah khalayak ramai. Suffice to say they did not look cool dan there is no way they can compete in the World Shuffle Competition – should there be one la kan. The main question is: Siapa parents mereka? Sub-question: Tak malu ke?

I’m not gonna deny it, I have issues dengan budak2 shuffle ni (by the way, sejak bila tarian techno tong-tong cheng ini menular ke remaja2 Melayu?), oh yeah where was I? Digression pulak. As I was saying I have issues dengan budak2 ini sebab my nephew is one of them. Tak habis2 dengan shuffle-nya. Bukan boleh pas periksa pun dengan menari. So far kebebasannya agak terbatas but I was telling Girl semalam, if I ever see Dan kat BB dengan budak2 yang muka tak malu tu, haaa siaplah dia kena belasah dengan aku.

But fikir balik, at least the kids are in the public eye kan? Mereka tak kacau orang. At least they’re not elsewhere, hisap ganja ke, ber-coitus ke apa. Hmm. It’s debatable I suppose. Dah lah, malas nak fikir, I’m not even a parent to begin with huhu.

On our way back, sebaik sahaja melepasi traffic light di Lot 10, Girl was driving my car on the fast lane. Lo and behold, ada lebih 30 budak2 rempit/emo ni berjalan di tepi jalan – lemme rephrase that berjalan makan jalan – they were literally in the middle of the road! Disebabkan Cik Nate ni tahap driver ala road bully (what do you expect – we live in KL) – apa lagi, aku honk la mereka. Ingat ini jalan datuk mereka ke apa. Kalau kena langgar, tak ke bersepai kepala otak mereka yang tak mendatangkan apa2 untung kepada masyarakat ini?

By then, budak2 tu bising la, sbb nyaris nak kena langgar kan. EXCEPT one last guy in the group thought he was trying to be gangster and clever:

He tried to smash my car window using his hand.

Ikhhh sakit nya hati aku!!! Nasib baik cermin aku tak pecah! Honestly, mmg Girl and & I panik sikit – tapi hey – cermin aku tak pecah. On the bright side – budak yang cuba pecahkan cermin aku tu – kemungkinan hari ini tangan dia akan bengkak – atau sakit selama seminggu. PADAN MUKA ENGKAU.

Dalam alternate reality aku, aku mahu langgar mamat tu. Bila dia jatuh, aku akan keluar dari kereta with my baseball bat dan tambah lagi kesakitannya. Biar dia meraung kesakitan mintak ampun dengan mak bapaknya.

But of course, kemungkinan besar, aku pula akan dibelasah dengan 29 kawan-kawannya yang lain! But hey! Aku boleh lari masuk dalam kereta la, then reverse kereta, and langgar yang lain sampai mampus. I’ve seen the gangsters here do it in my neighborhood la. Ingat gua takut ke?

*ehem* Emo pulak saya. Saja je ni, tak lepaskan kemarahan. Buat masa sekarang aku cuma mampu berdoa agar budak bangsat yang nak pecahkan cermin kereta aku tu akan menderita kesakitan tangan yang agak kronik. Lebih bagus jika tangannya terpaksa dipotong.

Hehe. Wishful thinking. Okaylah I want to do yoga now.



Breathe Cik Nate, breathe!

I turned 31 yesterday. Atau 201 tahun kalau ikut pengiraan hari polis. Rasanya tahun ini adalah tahun pertama Cik Nate tak ambik cuti but that's only because the project - my baby that I've been working on was officially launched on the 25th jugak. Alhamdulillah, all went well, walaupun ada a few hiccups yang tidak diduga. Semalam tido dengan lena setelah beberapa minggu terjaga jam 5 pagi sbb asyik fikir tentang kerja.

Tak sempat buat birthday wish, tak sempat nak depressed sbb sudah one year older, tak sempat nak plan untuk bersuka-ria gaya tak masuk akal.

I guess I'm all grown up now.

(I am also a liar - somebody please buy me a PSP sbb tak tido malam gian nak main Patapon! kthnxbai)

Results out, Alhamdulillah, it's a joyous day indeed for us.


Anyway, after lunch yesterday I took my nieces to OU to buy Anis' birthday present (nasib baik dia pilih handbag yang tidak terlalu mahal untuk makciknya bayar) and my standard 4 niece Ameera pula mahu ke bookshop untuk membeli buku.

As an auntie with no children it's excellent news bila the kids are starting to show interest in reading. So we went to MPH. Took her to the tweens section, coz i was assuming that she wanted to get chick lits ke apa. Setelah hampir setengah jam browsing dan buku dicari tidak dijumpai, I had to ask the dreaded question: "Buku Bahasa Melayu ke?". She said yes. Huwaaa ingatkan buku bahasa Inggeris!

Had to go to the service counter and gave the name of the book xxxxxx xxxxxxxx and made the stupidest remark: "Er,I think it's a Malay book.". *tepuk dahi* Apparently the book sold out. Wow! Buku apakah ini yang menjadi kegilaan kanak2 semua? Mengapa buku-buku jenis ini amat hodoh sekali ilustrasi-nya? Wait a minute, bukan aku kenal ke orang yang kerja di publication house ini?

To look on the bright side, at least she wants to read. That's a good start. Suatu ketika dulu aku pernah berjaya to get my eldest nephew Dan interested in reading Harry Potter. Tapi itu sebelum suara dia pecah and he discovered that it's cooler to be interested in girls than some boy on a broom stick. Ameero, the 2nd nephew pula (sorry aku mmg ramai anak buah) suka baca suratkhabar - yeah try explaining to a kid apa maksud seks rambang and other things you find in the news haha. Antara banyak2 anak2 buah Cik Nate, only Adyra reads in English (she needs to get out of her High School Musical phase fast).


Dalam erti kata lain, my kempen membaca masih belum berjaya.

I try to remember how I got interested in reading when I was a kid but as a kid i never liked hanging out with the kids in Kg Bharu anyway (they're vicious - mereka main masak2 dengan membakar seekor goldfish sehingga hangus) jadi books were my only retreat. Besides, having parents yang juga ulat buku was an added advantage. Hmm.

I'm gonna go look for the book for my niece today. I'm gonna read it first, see if it's any good. ;)

Don't pee here, pig.

Jika diberikan peluang, saya mahu strangle seekor ayam di kawasan perumahan ini. Ayam ini, walaupun hanya seekor, mampu mengejutkan seluruh kawasan jajahan DAP ini dengan kokokan-nya (?) yang nyaring - jam 5:30 pagi, setiap hari. Sometimes i feel like ayam tu sebenarnya tidur di balkoni aku. Or under my bed. It’s not fair okay! I need my sleep! You know how tiring it is to be solving riddles and battling demons in my dreams? Pffth. If i dont get the ayam to shut up then there will be blood soon!

I won tickets to see Backstreet Boys tonight. Tiket tu adalah sumbangan dari the investment team here. Alangkah malunya bila satu Company mendapat email pengumumam bahawa aku telah memenangi tiket tersebut (yelah selalunya email untuk all staff adalah berkenaan market indeks atau berita2 hangat dunia kewangan). I cant walk anywhere without anyone singing a BSB tune today. Haha very funneh guyz.

It’s so hard to get up in the morning today. My snooze normally goes off twice before I get up, shower, make coffee, catch the news on CNN and then perhaps watch a bit of CSI. On Channel RTM2 normally ada rancangan ‘Jom Minum’ (I still think the name of the show promotes alcoholism LOL) yang selalu membuat saya rasa lapar dan ingin pulang ke Kota Bharu for a bite of roti bakar di White House.

Speaking of which, don’t believe all the crappy stuff they’re saying about Kelantan. I know it’s the election fever and all but please, seeing is believing. Poverty is poison. But who am I to say this, all I can do is switch the channel and pretend that Obama will rule Malaysia instead. Yeah. Hillary pun takpe, I tak kisah.

Last Saturday di Annexe, Amir Muhammad launched his New Malaysian Essays 1 and Sufian Abas dengan Kasut Biru Rubina-nya. Suf, terima kasih di atas kata-kata perangsang tersebut and-of-course-i’m-being-sarcastic-here. But since i am a wonderful friend, here’s the book promo: Get yourselves a copy of these books. Sangat best! Tolonglah beli! Feed the starving artists! Hack the planet! :D

Saya juga berasa amat gembira kerana dapat bertemu teman-teman lama pada malam itu. Walaupun gaya hidup baru (bebas tanpa unsur hedonisme) sedikit sebanyak menjarakkan kita, namun jelas persahabatan kita semua masih utuh! Apa-apa hal, Sabtu ini kita jumpa di The Loft ok! Hehe.

Di Annexe, aku telah memulangkan sesuatu pada Saharil:



This is why you all should lend me money! I always pay back (er, well, most of the time), I always return things that I borrow! In this case, after 7 years, Jukstaposisi dipulangkan ke pemiliknya.

Gotta run. Starbux is giving out free coffee here!

Kasut Biru Rubina! 16 FEBRUARY 2008!

I'm such a bad friend! Anyway, my greatest critic (no, actually he's just that mean and sarkastik to me - dia umpama personifikasi budak2 Mean Girls tu, minus the boobs), hey apa aku rambling ni, so yeah anyway Sufian Abas is out with a new book! Aku tak marah walaupun my face didn't make the cut for the cover (ini bukan cerita dongeng) but yeah, he's awesome! Filosofia terulung! Dia rawkz!

(Annexe tomorrow, 8:00 pm. Jemput datang ye)

Demam. Well, slight fever. So tak boleh lah nak mengada sangat.
Bukannya tak boleh bangun, bukannya tak boleh berfikir.
But after 4 days break baru nak demam? Itu yang agak upset tu.

Bertambah upset apabila pergi ke doktor panel,
Doktor panel mengesahkan bahawa ya, you have slight fever
Tapi you tahu ubat apa dia kasi kat I?
Panadol & Clarinase
Like hello, kalau setakat bagi ubat2 macam ini,
I pun boleh jadi doktor okay!

In fact, i take Panadol and Clarinase all the time
Sampai sudah tiada effect dah. Like coffee.
Which is why i go see a doctor!
Grrr, geram sungguh.

Anyway, ketika cuti CNY i took my nephew and niece main layang-layang di Taman Metropolitan Kepong.
Angin sangat baik sekali, walaupun in the 1st place i was more interested in going home, layan America Votes 08.
Tapi bila layang-layang (Pocahontas kite, mind you) sudah tinggi, wow, syioknya!

Here’s a tip, di taman tersebut, untuk mengelakkan dari layang-layang tersangkut dengan ratusan layang2 di ruang lapang itu, go fly your kite by the lake. The wind is better there, and tiada gangguan! Manyak syiok!

Speaking of my nephew, he is 15. Muka sudah berjerawat, suara sudah pecah, maklumlah dah adolescent.
Gemar memakai baseball cap dan berbaju warna hitam.
Kemahiran utama adalah menari ‘shuffle’ walaupun dia selalu kena maki ngan aku:
“Why can’t you dance like Usher or Solja Boy instead!!!”

Anyway ketika kami di Jusco last Saturday, ada minah gedik ni (around his age) usha anak buah aku.
Amboi adik manis, tengok saya punya anak buah macam nak makan ye! *roll eyes*
Aku tengok anak buah aku sama control macho, sambil memberikan jelingan tajam dan senyuman ala Peter Petrelli pada awek tersebut.

Pergh, boleh tahan playa jugak anak buah aku ni. Ikh, budak2 zaman sekarang.
Makcik is very proud of you Danial! Hehe.

Suddenly I feel very old.
But harap2 Danial akan terus membesar menjadi seorang lelaki yang menghormati wanita.
I dont know, we’ll see about that.
Jangan dia mengurat awek rempit macam kat Jusco hari tu sudah.

OK selepas menjalankan kempen makan ayam penyet dengan jaya sekali setelah pertama kali menikmatinya di Kota Singa, i finally went to the Waroeng Penyet located at Cik Nate’s pasar ahad: The Curve. Gaaahhh it’s so good! Sehingga menjilat jari pinkie! If only i could learn how to make ayam penyet (no wait, first i have to learn how to cook huhu). I’m not a big fan of the Teh Botol but it was a delight to discover Jus Gembira (it’s like air bandung, with soda). Sambil munching on the crunchy chicken with Girl hari tu, tiba-tiba kami teringat, it’s been a year since we last menjejakkan kaki ke Bali. Tahun ini tak tahu lagi bila masa sesuai untuk pulang ke sana, kalau Amerika Syarikat dilanda recession, kalau Barack Obama asyik kalah kepada Ms Clinton, kalau Indeks Han Seng terus jatuh, kalau ada lagi artis Hollywood mati tergolek disebabkan drug overdose, you think i have time to spend my money on a tiny holiday?

Perhaps i do. I just need some excellent time management to execute.

This weekend (25 & 26 Jun) ada persembahan Mak Yung di Istana Budaya. Jemput mari adik kakok! Should be good. Kalau si Endeng Tejeli (yang telah dipasung di Gua Tegayung kerana rupa parasnya yang tampan) tidak kacak, I want my money back weh! ;P

* entry deleted. Aku malu tengok muka aku sendiri! *

Satu Penghijrahan.
