the one about badrul and the appeal...


tsunami...

buat teman-teman dan rakan-rakan semua...
i was quite busy trying to coordinate some stuff... bawak budak-budak shopping baju sekolah dan persiapan mereka yang lain-lainnya... my mom pulak kena food poisoning and bawak dia berulang alik ke clinic... the latest one, two days ago my dad jatuh... cedera teruk jugak... dugaan Tuhan semua nih...

yesterday, i was rushing to produce nine scripts for tsunami fund... and dekat office pun kita kutip derma, pakaian, makanan, keperluan peribadi dan sebagainya... seharian sibuk pack kan barang-barang dalam kotak, label dan hantarkan ke pusat-pusat pengagihan... alhamdulillah, ramai yang membantu dan insyaAllah, minggu depan akan buat lagih... two of my office-mate yang berada di sri lanka selamat balik ke malaysia... alhamdulillah... tapi ada seorang lagi kenalan yang masih hilang... belum ada khabar berita sehingga entry nih ditulis...

anyway, this will be a short entry... lebih kepada appeal to all of you out there... appeal to donate to tsunami fund... i know, kadang-kadang susah jugak sebab kita tak tahu macam mana nak channel kan bantuan sama ada barangan atau wang ringgit... but now, era has created something simple so that you can donate anytime, anywhere... through sms...

kita cuma perlu taip amp dan hantarkan sms kita ke 32555. setiap sms bernilai satu ringgit dan wang yang terkumpul akan disampaikan kepada mangsa dan keluarga mereka. kepada yang meninggal dunia, kita sedekahkan al-fatihah dan doa, dan kepada mereka yang masih hidup dan memerlukan bantuan yang amat sangat, kita hulurkanlah seberapa yang mampu... semoga Allah s.w.t. membalas jasa baik anda semua...
selamat tahun baru...

the one about badrul and 'the new year resolution'...


happy new year i...

before i go on talking about the new year resolution, i just want to say i had a blast on friday with the ocean 8... i don't know who come up with that name, but i like it! too bad i takleh nak join the whole day, but the breakfast and dinner memang fun habis... i hope this friendship of ocean 8 will last forever...

back to the new year resolution... hhmmm... i don't know how to say this... hhmm... well, this is just my personal opinion... my own personal opinion... i don't actually believe in the new year resolution... i used to... but i don't anymore... i think the last time i buat new year resolution was years ago... during my college time... almost 10 years ago... i guess, the reason that i don't believe in it sebab i tak pernah dapat fulfil my new year resolution... tak pernah tercapai... and i get frustrated...


happy new year ii...

then i met my public speaking lecturer who changed my perception of new year resolution... from that day onwards, i don't have anymore new year resolution... but i have monthly resolution, weekly resolution and daily resolution... i felt great each time i achieved my resolutions and i worked extra hard to achieve it! rather than having a long term like one whole year, which buat kita tangguh and tangguh and tangguh, this short term one really works!


happy new year iii...

everyday kita belajar something yang baru... or kadang-kadang something yang kita dah tau tapi tak pernah praktikkan... but when someone datang and remind us about all these things, our knowledge makin bertambah... itu yang i dapat daripada keluarga, teman-teman dan rakan-rakan around me... always trying to improve myself... to be a better person, a better friend, a better son, a better father...


happy new year iv...

looking back to 2004, banyak resolutions yang i buat daily, weekly and monthly dah tercapai... alhamdulillah... ada yang belum but takdalah serious sangat... the best thing about achieving your resolutions adalah self satisfaction... yup! kepuasan diri sendiri yang tak terhingga... and kadangkala, while you are actually doing it for yourself, you get rewarded from someone else... itulah kepuasan yang i rasa bila i got my promotion this year... and bila i menang awards for producing good quality commercials...


happy new year v...

and, siapa sangka... when i started blogging, i've met lots and lots of interesting, wonderful and great people who are now my friends... creating this blog is one of the highlight for me this year... meeting up with friends and fellow bloggers... starting up new friendship, getting in touch with long lost friends, learning something new from them, reading about their experience in life, gossiping dan bermacam-macam lagih...


happy new year vi...

but again, it doesn't matter whether you believe in the new year resolution or not... the most important thing is you get wiser each year... to all of you out there, may you achieve your resolution, yearly, monthly, weekly or daily... i think this is going to be my last entry for this year... to all, selamat menyambut tahun baru 2005... to ocean 8, may our friendship grow stronger dan semoga Tuhan memberkati kita semua...

the one about badrul and the wedding that has it all...



wedding again? yup... what do you expect... akhir tahun, holidays and all... balik jer dari penang and jb, terus attend wedding... everybody nak buat wedding hujung tahun... and talking about wedding, did you guys read in the papers pasal kedah football player yang tinggalkan bakal wife dia atas pelamin tuh? kesiannya... call me judgemental or whatever, but i think that man is pengecut! some more hantar sms to cancel! what kind of person is that? macam takda perasaan! anyway, what goes around comes around...


jj and corey...

to me, jj and corey's wedding were quite special! dalam invitation card tuh dia orang dah tulis awal-awal dress code traditional costume... anything traditional... so all of us especially colleagues from office beria-ria dress-up! oh by the way, jj is one of the morning jocks on hitz... ok, back to the story... so we all semua pilihlah traditional costume yang nak pakai... i've decided to wear the black chinese costume that i bought in beijing... naomi in kimono, tina choose to wear sari, tanty and hawa in cheongsam dress, jas in cheongsam blouse, shonn in kurta, jeza and sonia in kebaya etc... memang bergaya semuanya...


happily ever after...

oh, before i go on, thank you alyne for giving me direction to the hotel... tersesat-sesat nak cari equatorial hotel bangi... thanks again... anyway, i think most people impikan wedding in the garden... and jj & corey's were almost perfect... candles were everywhere, beautiful flowers on the tables in the lush green garden dengan bayu petang yang nyaman... they walked in with 'butterfly kisses'... i think ramai orang already in tears because it was such a beautiful song... perfect for wedding...


naomi and me...

food pun seedapppnya!! bbq lamb, spaggetti, black pepper steak, seafood platters, cakes and ice creams... then hujan turun rintik-rintik... nasib baik orang dah habis makan... even though ramai yang mengeluh, i told jj not to worry because hujan tu hujan rahmat... well, that's one thing kalau nak buat garden wedding kat malaysia nih... weather... nasib baik rintik-rintik jer... so sempat lah alih makanan dan minuman, plus wedding cake... and we all urgent to the ballroom...


hindi movie... tina and shonn...

in the ballroom, wedding yang pada mulanya macam dalam movie jer bertukar lebih santai... maybe sebab aturcara dah lari sikit since tukar location... yang mungkin ada sedikit 'gangguan' ialah lagu-lagu yang dimainkan... some of them were perfect for the wedding tapi ada tuh lagu-lagu yang...hhhmmm... how to put it in words... hhmm... tak sesuai sangat... and the sound system kat dalam ballroom tuh sedikit out lah... and i think the person in-charge of the music tuh macam tak tau jenis lagu yang nak dimainkan... hahahahhaa... masa they open the dance floor, alah, the one when the mc invited the bride and the groom to have their first dance as husband and wife tuh, dia pergi pasang lagu 'belaian jiwa'... hmmm....


farah, tanty, tina, hawa, jeza, jas and sonia...

lepas tuh bila dance floor dibukak untuk tetamu, mostly lagu 80s... you know, la bamba etc... but all of us were having fun already... after awhile, we don't care anymore about the song... hahahahaa... i think jj's father sporting habis... dia siap nyanyi lagih untuk anak dan menantu... very sporting...


me with the bride and the groom...

i love jj and corey... i hope and pray that they will have a happy and a wonderful life together... selamat pengantin baru to jj and corey... semoga bahagia ke anak cucu!

the one about badrul and johor bahru...




ahhhhh, i'm so tired... even now... slightly headache and badan sakit-sakit... sebab tu lah lambat sikit nak update about johor bahru... and even masa i kat johor pun, i was too busy... just managed to check the comment and reply some emails... and bila balik kl kena attend wedding lagih... all in all, i think i tidur about few hours jer... except last night lah... pukul 9.30 malam dan mengadap bantal... hahahahaa...

anyway, sampai kat airport senai jer dah lewat petang... and by the time i check-in to my hotel room, pukul 7.30 malam dah... freshen up a little bit terus keluar pergi dinner... they took me to danga bay... mak datuk!! ramainyer manusia!!! dia orang kata, this time of the year, people from singapore pun turun jb sebab cuti sekolah... lagipun dah hampir hujung minggu and dekat nak christmas, lagih lah ramai sebab dia orang turun shopping... so before dinner, i jalan-jalan sikit lah kat danga bay tuh... chewah, berangan nak naik keretapi mini dengan merry-go-round konon... hahahhhaa... tapi memandangkan badanku yang sungguh montel, i decided not to...

so we pergi makan kat one restaurant called 'lambaian seri bayu' or something... a bit dissapointed not because makanan dia tak sedap, but because it was not johorian food... thai food jer... tapi melantak sampai habis jugaklah... not so bad! on the way balik ke hotel tuh, jenguk-jenguk jugak restoran singgah selalu... the reason because it is one of our client and i always tulis radio commercials dia orang...

balik hotel, i bukak tv singapore... kalau tak silap i channel suria... banyak jugak good programmes (other than malaysian programmes lah) and one of them is 'gila makan' or something... best betul lah pengacara dia... kelakar... and at the end of the show, dia kena buat challenge like prepare the yong tau foo or something... hahahahaha... but one thing i have to get use to is the way they prenounce '0'... it's not 'kosong' but 'sifar'... at the same time, i've managed to catch the singapore idol - taufik - cinta agong nuraudha nih... hahahahaa... handsome budaknya... so, dapat dengar jugaklah sikit-sikit dia nyanyi...

since mutiara hotel provided breakfast buffet, i taknak lah membazirkan... still, i sedikit dissapointed sebab takda jugak makanan atau breakfast johor yang disediakan... the most yang ada was roti jala, but yang tuh pun rasanya sama kat mana-mana pun...

after my presentation, i was really looking forward for lunch... of course, i want to go and eat mee rebus hj. wahid kat plaza angsana yang leen cadangkan tuh... so, berangkatlah rombongan tiga buah kereta macam nak pergi meminang... hahahhaa... honestly, i'm not big on noodles, but yup, this is among the best mee rebus i've ever tasted... but you know me... mana cukup kan semangkuk mee... so dia orang decide nak bawak i pergi one restaurant to eat laksa johor... i tak tahu nama restaurant nih, but the laksa johor was soooooo yuummmmy... sedap giler! lepas tuh i nampak ada kelongsong daun pisang atas meja, so i tanya dia orang apa kat dalam nih... dia orang cakap mee siam... aik? dalam kelonsong daun pisang? mesti try lah kan... not bad! not bad at all!

lepas lunch, balik office kat jb, sambung balik kerja... lepas tuh about 5.30pm dia orang hantar balik hotel and akan jemput about 8pm for dinner... so, apa lagih, i pun pergilah merayau-rayau kat shopping complex sebelah hotel mutiara tuh... ramainyer orang mak datuk... tapi paling best, dapat beli dvd... murah siot!!! 8 ringgit jer compare dengan kl nih yang jual sampai 15 ringgit... at the same time, beli jack jack pillow from mcdonalds... hahahhaaa... rindunya kat xe'an...

about 8pm, i was ready to go out... dia orang nak bawak pergi makan seafood (yup, seafood lagih!) but i don't mind sebab i memang suka seafood... seriously, i tak tau nama tempat yang dia orang bawak nih, but the food is superlicious... ketam,udang, ikan, bermacam bentuk siput dan sebagainya... memang 'se eh' lah... dicampur dengan gelak ketawa dan sebagainya lagih lah kan... by the time i reached my hotel room, jam telah menunjukkan pukul 12 tengah malam... kenyang, happy dan sebagainya, i tidur dengan macam-macam mimpi indah...

i really want to come back to penang and jb... most probably i will celebrate my new year in penang... but the next time around to penang and jb, kena pergi dengan kawan-kawan... especially kawan-kawan yang tau tempat makan yang best-best... authentic penang and jb cuisines...

the one about badrul updating from penang...




the worst part was, i don't have camera with me... alaaa, macam tau ambik gambar pun... hahahhaaaa... but, i felt a little helpless... rasa macam tak cukup sesuatu bila update entry tapi takda gambar... macam tidur takda bantal, macam makan takda sambal belacan, macam drive kereta takda signal dan sebagainya lah... you know what i mean lah kan... tapi nak buat macam mana, datang penang pun bukannya nak ber-pleasure sangat, tapi untuk kerja... but how i wish i could show you guys some pictures...

i stay kat this northam all suite hotel... junior suite pulak tuh... huge room... bilik air dia jer lagi besar dari my room kat office... siap ada jacuzzy lagih... haiyooo yooo... best sesangat...

touched down kat airport bayan lepas jer, my colleague from penang terus bawak i pi makan nasi kandaq for breakfast... again, i think (read: for sure!)i will gain a few kilos just for this trip alone, to penang and jb... so sampai office terus buat presentation to them... elok-elok jer habis about 12noon... pastu everyone bersorak... waahh, ingatkan depa happy because my presentation went well, tapi rupa-rupanya depa check on-line, gaji plus two months bonus dah masuk... i pun bersorak sama... hahahahahaaa...

kemudian terus pergi lunch... assam laksa woohhh... yang nih i think the best in the world... esok mesti makan lagi... habis jer makan diaorang hantar pi hotel to check in... i apa lagih, terus lah berendam dalam jacuzzy macam kerbau tak pernah jumpa air... dua jam tau! hahahahhaaa... sampai kulit kecut-kecut semua... masa nih lah dok main sms dengan geng-geng sambil dok show-off... hahahahahaa... ya lah kan, depa semua kat office kena kerja, kita seronok jer layan jacuzzi...

lepas tuh dok kira planning for tomorrow... bukan apa, planning apa nak makan... hahahahaaa... kira punya kira, assam laksa menang daripada mee udang... but still, don't want to miss the mee udang... so, apa lagi, call lah room service order one bowl of mee udang and ice tea... ffuuyyooo... memang sedap... well, i'm sure ada tempat lain yang lebih sedap, tapi yang nih pun dah cukup kow kow untuk i... adalah dekat lima enam ekor udang besar tapak tangan... cisss kolestrol ku.... hahahahaa... licin tetap licin...

malam pulak, colleagues kat penang nih pi bawak i makan seafood... mak datuk!!! heaven nyer!!! we had this huge (and when i say huge, it's really huge!!!) lobster... lepas tuh order mantis prawn, ketam, nasi goreng, 'birthday' mee, siput yang tajam-tajam tuh, assam fish, sweet and sour fish, buttered prawn, pau goreng (macam pau dalam citer doreamon tuh) dan bermacam-macam lagih... memang tersandar lepas tuh... then, we urgent to other place to have teh tarik and lelain ler... balik hotel about 11.30pm terus mandi (nope, tak berendam dalam jacuzzy this time) and booommmm.. tiduq...

this morning, my colleague jemput kat hotel pi breakfast makan roti banjir... seeedaaappnyaa!!! apasal lah kat kl takdak tempat makan yang sedap melampau macam nih... padahal gerai nih tepi jalan jer, tapi kuah kari ayam dengan dal dia memang mengancam jiwa dan raga.... so now, i dekat office penang, updating my blog, while waiting to go for another round of assam laksa... well, could be two or three round... i will definitely coming back to penang... again and again and again...

i will be flying off to jb at 3.30pm today.... till then, see you guys in jb...

the one about badrul and a few weddings...


wedding...

i was so busy last week... in fact, i'm still busy this week... ingatkan bila dah hujung tahun nih boleh lah goyang kaki sikit... nope... makin banyak kerja ada lah... even weekend pun penuh dengan aktiviti... open house, station event, kerja, and of course, weddings... banyak betul... i think weddings are very tiring... no, not to the bride & groom and their families, but for the guests as well... nak kena pakai lawa-lawa lah... hahahahaa... nak kena carik hadiah lah... tuh tak termasuk 'angpow' lagih.... hahhahaaa... but then again, weddings are such a wonderful event... gabungan dua hati... dua jiwa... berjanji hidup bersama...


debra's wedding...

for the past few years, banyak wedding yang i dah attend, especially office-mate punya wedding... chinese wedding, malay wedding, indian wedding, sikh wedding, christian wedding, royalty wedding dan lain-lain yang sewaktu dengannya... each and everyone of it cukup indah dan cukup meninggalkan kesan... memang banyak benda yang kena diambil kira untuk menyiapkan sesuatu perkahwinan... ya lah, bagi sebahagian besar daripada kita, we just want to have it once... lainlah kalau memang niat nak pasang sampai empat macam datuk w tuh...


ee ling & aaron...

it's not an easy task... nope... masa bercinta tuh nampak mudah jer... tapi bila nak kahwin, macam-macam perkara kena fikirkan... kena pilih tarikh yang sesuai... kalau nak buat kat rumah, kena fikir pasal khemah, makanan, pelamin, makeup dan sebagainya... kalau nak buat kat hotel pun lebih kurang jugak... budget lagih, berapa ramai tetamu dan sebagainya... makanan pulak nak kena tau, western ker, chinese ker, malay ker... semua nak kena ambil kira... saudara-mara nak kena jemput, so kad jemputan nak kena siapkan... kalau tak jemput nanti ada yang merajuk hati... baju kahwin nak kena tempah... tak pun nak kena sewa... nak berapa persalinan... dan macam-macam lagih lah...


me with the aaron & ee ling...

all in all, wedding is such a huge thing! nope, i don't believe in elope... or nikah kat masjid jer... i want it to be something that i will remember forever... it doesn't have to be with thousands of guests... it doesn't have to be in the most expensive place... but it has to be beautiful... it has to be wonderful... and it has to be memorable (at least for me)...



ham's wedding...

i think sampai sekarang nih, the most memorable wedding yang i pernah attend was joanne's wedding... masa tuh i baru balik dari europe... sampai pagi, petang tuh terus attend joanne's wedding... too bad i takda gambar nak tunjuk, but i remember the wedding macam it was held yesterday... the setting was beautiful... petang, matahari nak terbenam and all around it was this beatiful... gorgeous... golden color...everyone was in their finest jackets and evening gowns... rose petals were on the walkway... and romantic love songs were playing all night... it was just beautiful! macam in the movie!


jeya's wedding...

but again, to me, all weddings are beautiful... i'm sure each and everyone of us (especially yang belum kahwinlah) mesti fikirkan tentang our dream wedding... well, let me tell you this, to all ladies out there... we men, do think about the wedding too... maybe not as elaborate, but as much... we want it to be beautiful too but not too complicated (nope, tak mau sampai tujuh persalinan... hahahahahaa...) we want something that we can treasure and remember forever, not something that we can show-off to other friends or relatives... we want something nice and affordable, not something yang kita terpaksa bayar hutang sampai ke cucu cicit...



karen's wedding...

to those yang dah kahwin, do share with me your most memorable moment... and to those yang belum, you are welcome to share with me your dream wedding... and to those yang akan kahwin, jangan lupa hantar kad jemputan ya...

the one about badrul and cambodia...


angkor wat...

when something bad terjadi kepada kita, we always think... hmmmm... malangnya nasib aku... kadang-kadang benda tuh kecik sangat, but cara kita mengungkit atau mengeluh tuh macam it's the end of ther world or something like that lah... but after my trip to cambodia, i've learnt that we should always be thankful... these cambodian people who have been through a lot of cruelty and misfortune in their lives can still smile... ada yang takda kaki... takda tangan... buta... dan lain-lain kecacatan lagi akibat perang... kemiskinan di mana-mana even di pnomh penh, ibu negara cambodia... tapi mereka tetap 'bersyukur'... tetap tersenyum menerima pelbagai dugaan... some times, we have to learn it the hard way...


the plane that took us to siam reap...

my trip to cambodia was set right after the big europe tour... dah lama dah sebenarnya berangan nak pergi cambodia nak tengok angkor wat... sejak belajar sejarah dulu (laaaaammaaa dulu)... so, me and my travelling buddy, shonny, together with willie decided to make this journey... the flight to pnomh penh was ok but from ibu negara cambodia tuh ke siam reap, where the angkor wat is situated was a bit scary... i think kapalterbang tuh russian made and it was so very shaky... bila kita orang mendarat jer di siam reap, ada a few people yang muntah-muntah...


hundreds of steep steps...

i'm always phobia of heights... and masa kat angkor wat, banyak betul panjat tangga yang tinggi-tinggi dan curam sangat... there was one time, i almost in tears sebab takut giler nak turun... masa naik tuh tak terasa sangat, but bila nak turun, terpaksa pandang ke bawah... i terpaksa turun mengiring kerana tangga batu tu semuanya about half the size of our feet jer... scary... but then again, it was worth it, especially bila dapat tengok sunset from the top of angkor wat... beautiful...


with shonny, and angkor wat as a background...

this country has tons of history, but because of greediness... because of power-crazy... semuanya hancur... bayangkan, banyak daripada bangunan angkor wat sendiri runtuh sebab perang saudara... angkor wat was a huge city... ada istana, ada temple, pusat perniagaan dan sebagainya... tapi semuanya hampir musnah... they are quite lucky sebab masih ada beberapa pihak yang go all out to restore this history wonder... locals and foreigners...


beautiful sculptures...

there were so many beautiful sculptures along the walls of angkor wat, tapi mostly dah takda muka, takda kepala, pecah dan sebagainya... semua nih sebab ramai pencuri yang mencuri these patung and sculptures... i blame this on those 'stupid rich basket head(s)' yang kononnya nak buat private collection lah, itu lah, ini lah... of course lah orang-orang tempatan nih curi sebab dia orang hidup susah and kalau ada peluang untuk cari duit bagi makan anak-anak, they will do anything... including mencuri...


willie, shonny and me...

still, the angkor wat is amazing... definitely one of the wonders of the world... dikelilingi oleh kolam buatan manusia yang menjadi sumber air dan makanan untuk penduduk-penduduk angkor wat... and also sebagai satu cara mempertahankan kubu angkor wat... around the area, you can see small kids mintak sedekah, some cacat anggota badan and all dengan pakaian compang camping serta berkaki ayam... ada yang lebih creative and entrepreneur... dia orang buat this small, small alat permainan traditional untuk dijual...


cambodia national museum...

oh ya, their money macam takda value... everything is in u.s. dollar... but barang-barang are relatively cheap... ada banyak tempat untuk bershopping, and to me, the best place is russian market...


inside the castle... a lot of stuff are made of gold...

i know bunyinya macam stupid, but how i wish the cambodia's goverment (or maybe the royal family) boleh jual barang-barang yang dibuat daripada gold tuh and duit tuh digunakan untuk menyediakan kemudahan kepada rakyat like to build more clinics and hospitals... to built schools for education and to create more peluang pekerjaan...


the traditional dance of cambodian people...

cambodian people are very sweet and friendly... they love to chat with you about their history, about their culture, about their darkest time... they are humble people... they work hard with minimum wages... and they always smiles as if everything will be better... well, i hope so...


a visit to killing field...

i sebenarnya keberatan, but willie and shonny insisted we go visit the killing field... ketika our tour guide bagi penerangan, i was already in tears... terlalu banyak kekejaman di dunia nih... terlalu banyak kehancuran akibat tamak dan gila kuasa... i don't want to put too much pictures of the killing field because i, myself, don't want to be reminded of the cruelty in this world...


too many cruelty in such a small country...

same goes with the torture camp... dia orang gunakan sekolah untuk diubahsuai menjadi tempat penderaan... walaupun teruk didera dan sebagainya, sebahagian besar daripada mereka still end up in the killing field... hanya beberapa kerat saja yang berjaya keluar dengan selamat...


torture chamber...

di torture camp, every where you look, you will have this mental picture of how cruel penderaan yang mereka hadapi... bayangkan orang yang mendera hanya berumur 15 atau 16 tahun, dan mereka mendera orang yang berumur 40 atau 50 tahun... it can be their neighbour's son... semoga Tuhan jauhkan musibbah sebegini daripada kita, anak-anak kita, cucu-cucu kita...


cambodia's independent landmark...

i'm glad that cambodian people dah mula mengorak langkah ke depan... they too ada independent symbol for their people... symbol yang merangkumi sejarah silam mereka... i think cambodia is starting new... they have young people yang memperjuangkan keadilan... yang memperjuangkan keamanan...


angkor wat change to golden color in the evening...

i taknak tutup this entry with a depressing pictures, so i letak gambar angkor wat instead... and before i stop, i just want to gently reminded myself and my friends... if you think life is hard for us, think about these cambodian people... and if you happen to see cambodian people who works here in malaysia or kat mana saja you berada (tak kiralah kerja kilang ker, tukang cuci ker, buruh binaan ker), be kind enough to treat them with dignity and respect... they deserve that from us... they all do... we all do...
