This is a definitely must watch movie.
I mean it.
Right after watching it, my hands just itching to write the review.
So, here I go.

This movie is not a typical alien-came -to-earth movie. For me, it's more than that. *warning: spoiler* In the movie, the aliens is forced to live as refugees on earth after their spaceship broke down. Humans despise them because they firmly believe that the aliens don't belong here. Aliens discrimination can be seen everywhere even after they have stayed for almost two decades; aliens can't share the playground with humans, can't use the subway and they even can't dine in the restaurant. They have no choice but to live in slums where poverty and crimes escalate each and every day.

I view the aliens in this movie as a metaphor of the Palestinian Muslims and the human race as the Israeli's Jews; as if the director is trying to tell the audience about how the Palestinians were abused of their right and freedom. Actually, this movie can be view from many different angle. It's totally up to the audience. I don't know why, but the thought of Jews and Palestinians just hits me during the part when Wikus (the leading actor) intrudes the aliens' homes with armed MNU officers. You'll understand more of what I'm babbling after you watch the movie for yourself.

At one point I started thinking. Who is the director? What actually he wanted to convey through his movie? So, i googled the movie and the director. Result: The movie is written by Teri Tatchell and Neill Blomkamp; but Neill alone directed the movie.

[Source: Wikipedia] Neill Blomkamp is a South African born, Vancouver BC -based director of feature-length and short films and advertisements. Blomkamp employs a documentary-style, hand-held, cinema verite technique, blending seamlessly with naturalistic and photo-realistic computer generated effects. He directed a series of three short films set in the Halo universe (known collectively as Landfall) and in 2008 he won the Cannes Lions 2008 – Film Lions Grand Prix for the HALO "combat" web commercial. He was slated to direct his first feature, an adaptation of the Halo video game before funding for that film collapsed. Peter Jackson, the producer of that project, decided instead to produce an adaptation of Blomkamp's earlier short film Alive in Joburg. Blomkamp directed District 9 which was released in August, 2009.

[Source: Wikipedia]
From the movie, MNU's eviction and relocation of the aliens is based on District Six, a former inner-city residential area in Cape Town, South Africa. The district was declared a "whites only" area by the apartheid government in 1966 and the population of 60,000 forcibly relocated to Cape Flats, 25 kilometres away during the following years.

So, there you go. That is what on his mind. Not same with mine, but it's a free world. You can sue me for thinking differently...i think? Whatever.

I have much more to tell actually, for instance the unique marketing campaign of this movie (click here for more info), but I'll be striping the suspense out of it. The only solution is, GO AND WATCH THE MOVIE la! Tell me after that what you think of the movie, ok?

p/s: I've developed a habit - watching movie all by myself! Kinda fun actually, just grab your key and drove to the nearest cinema. No hassle. Try it!

Saya terpanggil untuk menulis entri ini selepas membaca entri daripada enchek Rehan semalam. [dah lama tak tulis entri berunsur ilmiah ni heee~]

Memang tak dinafikan demonstrasi merupakan salah satu cara untuk mendapatkan perhatian segera. Ada sesetengah negara juga membenarkan rakyatnya mengamalkan cara ini.

TAPI...

yang menjadi masalahnya adalah CARA kita.

Menurut Wikipedia, demonstrasi adalah satu bentuk tindakan tidak ganas oleh kumpulan rakyat dalam menyebelahi satu sebab yang politik atau lain, biasanya mengandungi berjalan dalam satu perbarisan [bukan menjerit-jerit atau terpekik-pekik] dan satu mesyuarat (rally) untuk mendengar penceramah-penceramah [bukannya lari bila nampak polis]. Tindakan-tindakan seperti kepungan dan sit-ins mungkin juga merujukkan untuk sebagai demonstrasi.

Di sesetengah negara asing, memanglah rakyat mereka dibenarkan membuat demonstrasi. Namun begitu, mereka adakan dengan
  • mengikut tatatertib dan undang-undang
  • berkumpul di tempat yang dibenarkan oleh pihak polis seperti dataran atau jalan2 raya yang ditutup
  • membawa sepanduk dan kain rentang yang berkaitan
  • wakil mereka akan berucap di hadapan untuk menyatakan rasa tidak puas hati mereka.

Kita pula buat demonstrasi dengan
  • berkumpul di tempat awam sehingga menyebabkan kesesakan trafik dan kerugian kepada peniaga2
  • menutup muka supaya tidak dikenali oleh polis atau media
  • membawa batu dan botol yang sememangnya tiada kaitan langsung dengan demonstrasi
Pada pendapat saya, disiplin masyarakat kita masih belum mencapai tahap yang membolehkan kita mengadakan demostrasi dengan selamat. EMOSIONAL. MENGIKUT KAWAN. MENGIKUT KEPALA

Kesimpulannya
Banyak $$$ yang perlu dikeluarkan
Nasib ada biasiswa PaMa untuk didahulukan
Tapi tetap kena bayar balik
Potong elaun RM100 tiap2 bulan

"errmmm....En Mekanik, ada diskaun tak untuk student?"

Nak kongsi sikit dengan kawan2 semua cara2 menghadapi situasi sekiranya kawan2 tersondol kereta orang (berdasarkan pengalaman saya yang tak seberapa ni):

1) jangan gelabah - ini paling penting. Omputih panggil 'key element'.
2) jangan terus mengaku kesalahan anda walaupun ia adalah memang terang2 salah anda - bukan suruh menipu tapi manalah tahu kalau orang depan pun ada buat silap, dah boleh jimat duit sikit kat situ.
3) ambil butiran2 penting - no plat, nama, no telefon dll
4) jangan turun kereta - kalau berlaku di tempat2 yg sunyi especially untuk ladies. Nanti jadi apa2 yang tak diingini lak.
5) call orang2 yang terdekat untuk bagitau apa yang berlaku. - Mak atau ayah atau pakcik atau makcik atau sepupu atau sepapat atau yang seangkatan dengannya. Kalau diorang dapat datang lagi best. Ni penting gak. Takut2 kena tipu ke, rompak ke, tak ke niaya.
6) lapor polis sekiranya perlu - Ni kalau nak claim insurans la. Kalau mau setel sendiri, abaikan saja cadangan ni. Nanti tak pasal2 kena saman polis. RM300 melayang wooo...
7) kalau orang yang disondol tu minta IC, jangan sesekali bagi. - Tunjukkan saja kat dia, pastu sebutkan no IC. Bukan apa, takut dia bawak lari IC tu. Macam2 boleh buat, jual kat bangla pun boleh dapat duit. Saya ada kawan yang pernah kena.
8) dan yang terakhir sekali, silalah jangan sondol kereta orang. Memang sendiri cari pasal. ha3

p/s: time lesen mati la aku tersondol kete orang. Nasib2...

Saya ingin tujukan lagu ini kepada s.a.h.a.b.a.t saya



Sayu terpisah
hikayat indah kini hanya tinggal sejarah
berhembus angin rindu
begitu nyamannya terhidu wangian kasihmu

chorus:
hujan lebat mencurah kini
bagaikan tiada henti
kaulah laguku kau irama terindah
tak lagi kudengari

kau pergi..
pergi..

sepi tanpa kata
terdiam dan kaku tak daya kau kulupa
apa pun kata mereka
biarkan kenangan berbunga di ranting usia


buat s.a.h.a.b.a.t,

lagu ini adalah untuk kamu
maaf sekiranya lagu ini menyinggung perasaan kamu
bukan mahu mengguris luka di hati kamu
cuma aku fikirkan melodi lagu ini sungguh enak untuk didengari tatkala hati sedih
dan apabila hati kamu sudah tenang
padamkan lagu ini
lapkan air mata kamu
bangun berdiri berlari teruskan hidup kamu
kerana kamu adalah kamu
kamu bukan aku
kamu bukan dia
kamu adalah kamu

semua orang pernah rasa sakit ditinggalkan
semua orang pernah rasa sakit dikhianati
semua orang pernah rasa sakit kesunyian
yang membezakan kamu dengan semua orang hanya satu
CARA KAMU
cara kamu bersedih
cara kamu berkabung
cara kamu mengubati luka di hati
cara kamu bangkit semula
ada orang pilih jalan bodoh
ada orang pilih jalan cerdik
ada orang pilih jalan pintas

aku tahu
kamu cuma belum jumpa lagi jalan itu
atau mungkin kamu takut untuk memilih jalan itu
tak mengapa
mana satu pun sebabnya
aku ada
dia ada
kita ada
hulurkan saja tangan kamu
aku sambut
dia sambut
kita sambut
aku ada sepatu tumitku
dia ada sepatu putihnya
kamu ada sepatu sukanmu
sama-sama kita lalui jalan itu

yang penting
hulurkan tangan kamu
agar aku dan dia dapat pegang
sama-sama kita lalui jalan itu

aku sayang kamu

Question 1:
If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?

Read the next question before looking at the answer for this one.


Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three leading candidates.

Candidate A -
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologists. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.

Candidate B -
He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C -
He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be your choice? Decide first, no peeking, then scroll down for the answer.















Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.


Candidate B is Winston Churchill.


Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.



And, by the way, the answer to the abortion question: If you said yes, you just killed Beethoven.

Yesterday was the premier of Hannah Montana the Movie. I watched it; alone. Another crazy thing I did this week. *applause*



To tell you the truth, I'm no big fan of Hannah or Miley; and putting the movie in my 'must watch' list is definitely out of the question. I was attracted to watch the movie since I adore her song "The Climb" very much.It's very inspiring.



To my surprise, I almost shed my tears when I watched it. The movie touched my heart in a way I never would think of. Don't get me wrong; it wasn't a sad-titanic-kind of movie. Frankly speaking, even a 5 year old can figure out how the story ends; on the surface it may seems like another typical idol movie; but if you try to dive deeper you may be surprised what you'll discover. For me, the movie is all about self discovery; who you are and who you want to be.





*warning: spoiler*


In the movie, Miley is so wrapped up in her Hannah-Montana-Glam world that she turned down her grandma's birthday invitation without hesitation to perform in an award show; not to mention she just ruined her best friend's sweet 16 party. So, her father decided to take her back to their hometown in the countryside or we so called 'kampung halaman' in a two weeks term to 'clean up' her attitude. Of course at first she put up budak-bandar-baru-1st-time-masuk-kampung attitude, but gradually she realized the most important thing in her life than fame and fortune. Thus, she is torn between being Miley which is herself; or being the famous Hannah Montana which is her childhood dream.








(pic source: http://media-file.net/1/hannahmontanathemovie/)


Yes2 I know, there is a big-mammoth-size difference between movie and real life. But even so, I can pretty much relate it to my life right now. Life is all about choices. There will be many paths for us to choose, but to choose the right one was easy. Most people are very afraid that their choice will be a blunder that they will regret for the rest of their life. I was among those people some time ago. I prefer to follow the orthodox to play safe.



"Lepas SPM better masuk matrik, cepat sket masuk U".



So, I just did what I was told to do – fill in forms and so on. Sometimes I even wonder, what if back then I chose not to enter matrix but instead go for diploma. What will happen to me today? Will I be in an office working my a** off or will I continue my study for a degree scroll?



But, as good as it sounds I can never turn back time; at least not till someone really invent a time machine. So, at some point in my life I decided to go my own way; explore as many opportunity as possible. There are so many things to discover out there, live life as if you are about to die tomorrow. *credits goes to Rehan*



Starting today, I decided to live life to the fullest; seize every golden moments that I have and most important of all – take all the time in the world to enjoy it.



p/s: maybe I should start to list down the things I've been dying to do. Where's my pen eh?

*sigh*

Finally I've managed to sum up my courage to write this post. I hate to do this but at one point I feel obligated to do it. I tried to share it with my friends but somehow I can't utter a single word from my mouth. So maybe blogging can help to lift off some weight from my shoulder. Frankly speaking, I've been hesitating to write this post for almost a week now. But at last I decided to put it up after a series of interesting events that cleared my cluttering head. Running was always the shortest way out but eventually it will catch up to me. So what the heck…



*clearing throat*



So here goes nothing….



Sharing my emotions with the people around me was never an easy task. I think it has something to do with my ego. *how to know for sure ah?* I hate to show my weaknesses in front of people. It makes me feel very vulnerable and helpless. I usually will put up a tough and sturdy mask over my face to hide it. Sometimes I feel like tones of heavy duty bricks piled up in my head but as usual I will keep it to myself. It's ok for me actually because I always have a way to overcome it.



For instance, I will drive around town in my car *my precious Sagawara to be exact* just to cool off my head and start thinking a solution; or I will bury myself in bed the whole day wishing that the answer will came into my dream. Sometimes it takes 1 minute for me to sort things out; sometimes forever. But in any case, I know I will somehow find a way out.



But this time it's different; totally different. I can't find the way. I'm lost.



I don't know where my life is heading to or where I'm supposed to go. I don't know what I want.



I don't want to live an ordinary life; graduating - get a job - make money - buy my dream car - get married - have children and so on. For me that's a dull life.



I tried to make my life more interesting; going out with my friends every other night to have fun but I know I'm just chasing down temporary high. It will never last. So I tried setting up my own business but after 5 months, it's proven to be futile because my heart is not on it. I know now that is not what I want.



Looking back in my 22 years of life, I'm trying to figure out what I have accomplished. None. Zero. Nada. I have done nothing significant or groundbreaking in my life. I feel very ashamed of myself. Some people at my age have already bought their own cars; make a fortune for living or established their own brand or clothes line. Right now I don't want any fame or fortune. Honestly, I don't know what my heart wants. Clueless. *sigh* I think I'm going in circles.



I could recall that once I actually do have a dream. I dreamed that one day I will be a vet then travel to Serengeti [a National Park in Africa] to aid and protect the endangered animal species there; take care of a baby orphan leopard or maybe just monitoring the rhino's population*as a result of watching too much Animal Planet I guess ha3*. But somewhere along the road that dream died. I don't know when or why. I didn't even realize it.



So, at this point I still don't know what I want. Should I try to chase back my old dream? Or should I just laid back and wait for changes?



I think the reason I don't know what I want is that I haven't truly understand myself. I really envy people that prefer to live a simple and plain life, expecting nothing more out of it. If only my mind can be as simple as theirs. But I don't want to live a simple life; I know I was meant to do something extraordinary in my life. *sigh* I think I'm going in circles again.



I think I have a lot of self-discovering to do. I have to figure out as soon as possible where my heart is. I have to find a clue that can point me to the right direction. As for now I will just go with the flow; cherishing the friendship that I have, appreciating every bits and pieces of my life and at the same time enjoying every single second of it. I decided to try out every possibility and chances that i have until i discover the real ME.



I hope one day my prayers will be answered by Allah. Amin.

Apakah kaitan Chikugunya dengan Hari Ibu? Memang tiada kaitan langsung. Cuma aku nak kongsi kisah ini dengan kawan2 semua.



Pada suatu hari yang indah; sang suria menyinar dan burung2 berkicauan riang.*intro kasi indah sket ha3* Telefon bimbit aku berbunyi. Ayah aku telefon untuk memaklumkan mak aku dijangkiti demam chikugunya. *ish susah betul nak eja nama penyakit nih* Maka dengan bergegasnya aku pulang ke rumah.



Antara simptom2 penyakit chikunya ialah demam, ruam/bintik2 merah dan sakit2 sendi. Jadi pergerakan Mak menjadi terhad. Memandangkan Mak tak mahu tinggal di hospital, *"tak nak la dok spital, boring la" is her excuse* maka aku perlu menjaga Mak di rumah apabila ayah aku kerja. Aku juga perlu take over la tugas2 Mak secara full time. *macam la ade part time position* Jadual harian aku bermula seawal 6 pagi.


  • 6am – kejut Aiman; prepare breakfast
  • 6.30 am – kejut Ayn
  • 6.45 am – hantar Aiman ke sekolah *sometimes done by Ayah as he was back from the mosque at that time*
  • 7.30 am – quick nap *quick yang x brape nak quick la hee~*
  • 9am – house chores: kemas rumah, buang sampah, jemur baju etc
  • 10++ am – start preparing lunch
  • 12++ pm – clean up, mandi etc
  • 1.30 pm – fetch Aiman from school and send direct to Sek Agama
  • 3.30 pm – fetch Ayn from school
  • 5.30pm – fetch Aiman from school
  • 6.00++ pm – start preparing dinner *slalunye panaskan lauk tghari je heee~*
  • 7.45 pm – hantar orang2 yg berkenaan ke tuisyen
  • 9.45pm – jemput org2 yg berkenaan balik dr tuisyen lak

    THE END


That is my schedule for 3 straight days. Yes only THREE days, tapi penatnya..ya ampuuuuuun…Tuhan saja yang tahu. Thank God on the 4th day, Ayah was at home and he taken over the 'driver' part. Those THREE days was really a wakeup call for me. It makes me wonder, how can Mak do all of this day after day without a word of complain? Then I realize, so this is the power of LOVE. Yes, it's LOVE bebeh! Raising up 8 children is definitely not an easy job. No gaji, cuti sakit, kwsp or whatsoever.



Well, you know her sendi is sakit2 everywhere, so aku kena papah Mak setiap kali Mak mahu ke bilik air. Then, I have to help her put her on panties because she said that its way too painful for her to bend over. *should I censor this part?* This was certainly the most, I mean the MOST awkward moment of my life. I didn't expect I would have do this, at least not when Mak is only 47.



For a split second there was a brief silence between us. I don't know what's on her mind but I have no idea why at that particular moment I feel a chill suddenly ran down my spine and I have goosebumps on my hands; Mak have this Patrick-friend-of-Spongebob-blur-look drawn on her face.

Maybe she didn't expect this to happen as well. I break the ice by asking her if she needs anything else. Before I can finish the question, I suddenly burst into laughter. "Owh..ko gelakkan Mak yer." Then she laughed; the kind of laugh that Fatin always categorized as 'gelak yang bersepah'. Ha3…I love that moment. I feel very warm and bahagia. *mcm kapel lak ha3* Terima kasih Allah kerana memberi peluang kepada aku untuk berbakti kepada Mak. Aku berharap bila aku menjadi IBU suatu hari nanti, anak aku akan melakukan perkara yang sama terhadap aku.



Well, there you go guys. That's the story that I want to share. Sometimes a tiny little thing can leave a big impression to a person. You don't need to invent a genius robot to help your mother with her chores; no need for a can-cook-all-kinds-of-food machines to help her in the kitchen; no need for an F1 driver to get her to the hospital when she is sick. All she need is time. YOUR TIME. Just spend some time with her and who knows what surprise you will get.


I HEART U, MAK!

"Sekarang kita belajar macam mana nak buat jadual belajar. Keluarkan sehelai kertas dan alat tulis. Lukiskan kotak jadual yang macam akak buat ni. Lepas tu, isikan dalam kotak2 masa dan subjek yang adik-adik nak ulangkaji. "

"Akak, nak buat sampai hari jum ke hari ahad?"

"Ikut kesesuaian masa adik-adik je, tak kisah pun. Lagi best kalo boleh buat sampai hari ahad."


"Nak lukis spongebob kat jadual ni boleh kak?"



*erk* "Boleh2. Adik-adik boleh hias jadual tu ikut kreativiti masing-masing."

"Akak, macam mana nak lukis awan yang macam akak buat tu?"



"macam ni..." [sambil melukis di papan putih]

"Alaaa...susah la. Akak buatkan la."

*erk* " X susah...cuba ikut macam akak buat ni." [sambil melukis lagi di papan putih]

"Alaaa...malas r nak buat."

*Hadoiyaiii...*menepuk dahi*

Seketika kemudian...

"Dah siap belum, adik2?"

[Semua serentak]"Dah siap kak!"

"Meh akak tengok. "[sambil meneliti]

Ikhwan, mane boleh study Sains dari kol 6-7 pagi. Masa tu kan kena bersiap pegi sekolah.

Nizam, mana boleh study Matematik dari kol 10-11 pagi. Kan masa ni Nizam dok kat sekolah.

Haaa...jadual ni bagus Aishah, semua lengkap.

Setelah selesai....

Ok, akak dah tengok semua jadual adik2, kebanyakannya dah ok tapi ada yang kena betulkan sket2. Nanti akak tunjukkan macam mana

"Alaaa...boring r kak buat jadual. Jom la main game."

*Haih*



Kesimpulan: Apabila menjadi fasilitator untuk adik-adik yang bakal menduduki peperiksaan UPSR, sila lengkapkan diri dengan ketahanan mental dan fizikal yang tinggi.

The Climb - Miley Cyrus


I can almost see it
That dream I’m dreaming but
There’s a voice inside my head saying,
You’ll never reach it,
Every step I’m taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I gotta keep tryin
Gotta keep my head held high

There’s always gonna be another mountain
I’m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s a climb

The struggles I’m facing,
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes might knock me down but
No, I’m not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I’m gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on

Cause

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith, baby
It’s all about,
It’s all about the climb
Keep the faith,
Keep your faith, whoa
Welcome to the World - Kevin Rudolf


Welcome to the world, welcome to the world

You got your popstar, I'll be your rockstar
When it's a suicide, you call it superstar
Check out the forecast, predictions wont stop
You get your fifteen, and then they take the spot

Lets go, lets go
And then you're ready to go
Lets go lets go
Cause it's the end of the show
Lets go lets go
So just get ready to go
Lets go lets go
Lets go lets go

All the time that you were gone,
I thought about how things went wrong
Now you're coming down to earth
Ok, hello, welcome to the world

She saw the bright lights
She caught the fever
She got contagious
She never leave it
So no more time spent
And no more free shit
In fact this free ride has reached it's destination

Lifes a tour, I'm so sure
The ex will come before you exit girl
No more games, I confess
Far from lane I'm just so fresh
While cubit lee(?), it's the big boss
You get on the block, mr Rudolf
Kevin! 2 stars, hold your applause
Hold it down to yalls all guitars
Half my life I sacrifice
But I only came to party tonight
New chicks, get my drinks up
Every weekend we can link up
New rings, with the big cuts
Only be the best sport, get your mix up
I took my time she love me, me such
When she closes her eyes it's what she thinks of
Boss

Can't get these songs out of my mind. Just wanna share with everyone. Enjoy!

Oh Shizuka! - Pop Shuvit

Tiada yang umpama kasih yang pertama
Ku luaskan indera merangkul adinda
Tiada yang sejati tiada yang seindah
Kasihmu ku bawa ke mana saja

Di langit bumi kota Nagoya
Berputik cinta ku semula
Sekian lama ku kecewa
Hadirmu bagai lentera

Hampir layu ku separuh mati
Di belai ku kasihmu bersemi
Kau suntikku lalu kau bisik

Mata terpejamku celik Semangat berputik
Kerna kau tak peduli Trimaku sepenuh hati
Mata terpejamku celik Semangat berputik
Kerana kau beri Mentari Kembali Percaya diri

Oh Sizuka Ku tunggumu Na……
Oh Sizuka Ku tunggu panggilanmu

Oh sizuka konichiwa Apa Khabarmu
Oh sizuka ku tak lupa Ingatkah kamu
Oh sizuka Bila waktu Lamaku tunggu
Oh sizuka Ku nanti panggilanmu

Aishiteru sayang Sizuka (Tunggu ku di sana)
Kisu shite mo-ii Sizuka (selamanya)
Itsumo suki-dayo Sizuka (Kita kan bersama)
Aishiteru sayang Sizuka (Ke akhirnya)

Rinduku Terhenti - Tomok (Final OIAM 3)


Telahku Tinggalkan
Memori Silam Ku Itu
Tidakku Biarkan Hidupku
Dibelit Pilu
Walau Duka Menampan Dada
Walau Sepi Mancalar Hati
Rindu Ku Terhenti

Ku Pinggirkan Sayu
Yang Meruntuhkan Pintu
Kasih Dulu
Ku Biar Berlalu
Ku Pinggirkan Lara
Yang Berpaut Dijiwa
Ku Teruskan Hidup Tanpa Dia

Padahnya Lama Dah Tunggu
Hilang Tak Berganti
Cinta Tiba Cinta Pergi
Biarlah Satu Hati

Ku Lupa Kanmu Jua Disini
Sedih Kau Pergi Menjauhi

Semua orang kenal Britney Spears. Masa zaman awal dia jadi penyanyi dulu, comel dan naif je. Mula2 nyanyi dengan Kelab Mickey Mouse (seangkatan dengan JT n Christina Aguilera), lepas tu buat album pertama yang meletup dengan lagu "Baby One More Time", feymes la smpai sekarang. Salah satu bakat dia adalah kelincahan menari atas pentas. Bley dikatakan perfect la. Xde cungap mahupun suara sumbang masa perform. Haaa...jangan tertipu. Semua itu gimik sahaja.




Itu adalah bunyi sebenar yang keluar dari mic Britney. Cungap x tentu hala. Pitching bersepah2. Aku rasa William Hung nyanyi lagi sedap dari dia. Yang dengar kat konsert tu rakaman semata-mata. Memang propa. Ia dipanggil 'lip sync' ataupun lebih dikenali 'miming' di Malaysia. Kat US sane, artis2 yang lip sync ni kira artis yang low class la. Contoh macam Ashlee Simpsons yang kantoi lip sync masa perform SNL. Memang esoknya kena kondem kaw2 punye.

So, kepada Britney Spears, saya ingin mencadangkan kepada anda supaya bergurulah dengan Stacy AF6. Blaja la kat dia macam mana nak menari sambil menyanyi secara live. Antara artis barat dan artis tempatan, mana lebih berkualiti? Mengapa diagung2kan sangat artis barat? Lu fikirlah sendiri.

Hari ini saya bangun awal [heee~lagi awal dari hari2 biasa la] sebab ada banyak tempat yang perlu disinggah dan diselesaikan kerjanya.

Mula-mula pergi ke pejabat kolej. Alhamdulillah dapat da duit yang diclaim 2 minggu lepas.

Selepas itu pergi bank pula untuk activate account Amyda. Offline pulak. Sabar. Takpe, esok pergi lagi.

Lepas tu pergi ke ofis untuk buat kerja ofis. Modem lak diangkut oleh Graphic Designer aku yang comel lote tuh. Adoiyai...macam mana aku nak buat kerja ni? Sabar. Takpe, pergi cuci kereta dulu kejap. Dah janji dengan Waneeta nak lunch sama2.

Sementara tunggu kereta dicuci, makan ABC kat mamak dulu. Tatkala itu, telefonku berbunyi. Waneeta tak dapat lunch sama2 sebab ada client. Sabar. Takpe, lepas kereta siap balik kolej saja la.

Dalam perjalanan pulang, ayah hantar sms. "Send ur copy of cvr letter wif ur sign asap 2 unc Lakman. Chx ur mail for info".

Sampai di bilik, buka laptop, klik Firefox, yang terpapar 'Offline mode'. Sabar. Refresh. Tiada perubahan. Refresh lagi. Tiada perubahan juga. Sabar. Takpe, pergi CC la.

Menjenguk dari foyer. CC tutup. Sabar. Rumet cadangkan untuk pergi ke CC UO. Takpe, pergi CC kolej lain semata-mata untuk buka email sahaja.

Selesai tugas tersebut. Pulang ke bilik. Refresh. Tiada lagi perubahan. Internet masih tidak boleh digunakan. Sabar. Takpe, nampak gayanya terpaksa la pergi ke PTSL untuk study.

Tiba di PTSL, cari buku2 yang diperlukan, cari meja kosong and duduk. Walaupun buku2 tersebut sangat membantu, tetapi aku kena cari certain2 bahan online.

Buka laptop, klik Firefox, yang terpapar 'Offline mode' lagi. Refresh pun tak berguna. 'Unable to connect to ukm jaring'. Aik, ramai sangat ke yang guna jaring kat sini sampai aku tak boleh nak connect langsung? Sabar. Takpe, fikirkan cara lain.

Di mana tempat yang ada internet dan makanan yang sedap untuk mengisi perut yang lapar ini?

Penyelesaian: Aku kini berada di Secret Recipe Seksyen 4, baru selesai menikmati black pepper chicken dan susu segar dan sedang mengemaskini blog menggunakan hotspot streamyx yang aku beli guna SMS. Hee~perut kenyang dan hati senang.


Tiada niat untuk marah kepada sesiapa, cuma menganggap hari ini kesabaran aku telah diuji berkali-kali. Nampaknya Allah masih sayangkan aku. Syukur Alhamdullilah. Amin.

I know lots of new roads today! Seriously!

Actually today i went to see an apartment with Kak Su @ Taman Sutera. At first the place seems very deserted. Kawasan baru nak bangun, public transport pun takde
[luckily all of us have transports]. But once the kind landlord showed us the access roads to many places, I'm stunned! Completely shocked!

Cuba bayangkan, dari apartment tu nak ke JJ Balakong is only 3 minutes away! No need highway or 4 lane roads. No lie, the landlord siap set masa sebab nak prove kat kitorang. Ho3...seronoknya! Rumah yang dekat dengan JJ, very tempting. Then, to my office is only 10 minutes away
. That's just some of it, to:

The Mines - 15 min
KL (Dataran Merdeka) - 20 min + no traffic jam
Putrajaya - 15 min

But then kena bincang ngan bakal housemate yang lain2 dulu.

Ok, nanti fikir lagi.

p/s: bestnye kalo tiap2 malam bley lyn midnite...ngeh3
