Yay!!!!! Cotti Seminggu!!!....

Won't be updating for a week...:(

Kalu tuang gi pata timor
Jangan lupa maghi sokmo
Negeri terengganu memang sohor
Tempat molek, tanah subor
Tempak Molek, tanah subor
Na na na na na Terengganu kita ( 2X )

Hoi guang gamoik tu

Yak kelih wak tangi Pulau kapas,
Pulau Redang Kita lalu ikut Marang
Jangan lupa kuala berang
Sekayu comel, zaman berzaman
Sekayu comel, zaman berzaman
Na na na na na Terengganu kita ( 2X )

Hoy hoy hoy bangun!! ke laut eeh... ..

takat ikang di Kuala Kemamang
P etang-petang wat kerpok gete
Ramai orang, atah gere
Main dam due tige papang
Dok sedor sapa ke malang
Kedai payang jual budu belacang
Batek tembaga dan macang-macang

Kalu nok tra nasi dagang
Kita pakat gi kampong ladang
Buat bekal gi merang
Di setiu pata peranginan
Singgah sebetor ke rantau abang
Kita tengok penyu telor
Kita tengok penyu telor

Selamat datang wei... Tempat kami ramai-ramai
Selamat datang Negeri kami

Kita singgoh kat primula
Batu burok tepi pata
Laut biru di tanjong jara
Tempat rilek orang dok kaca
Tempat rilek anok-anok dara comel-comel belaka...

Na na na na na Terengganu kita ( 2X )

Misyar yang bukan Misha Omar

Perkataan yang buat pompuan naik loya dengar…but senyum lebar untuk lelaki…

I am not suggesting anything here but just to share my understanding on this subject.

In laymen term, it means, kahwin, tapi tak payah nafkah zahir. Nafkah batin jeee…

Of course, in some cases, or locations this might apply. Wallahua’lam..aku tanak debate benda ni sebab ilmu di dada tak cukup.
Kang main cakap je..salah kang….
Maybe lah…orang yang kata boleh tu, dia anggap macam darurat la..kalau darurat, semua nye boleh kan……
Tapi ini kena ikut masalah setempat, how critical the problem and how it could help to solve the problem.
Again..itu aku tak pandai..better if I keep my mouth shut.

I personally don’t think Malaysia is in need of this kind of marriage. And from my rough assessment, I still feel that Malaysians men are not ready for Misyar although they don’t have to give material support to their wives/to be wives..heheh
Why? Let us understand the definition of nafkah zahir and nafkah batin

Apa itu nafkah zahir?
Nafkah zahir ialah nafkah dari segi material mcm rumah, makan, minum and pakaian.
So dalam perkahwinan misyar. lelaki tak payah sediakan rumah, makan, minum or pakaian kepada isterinye.
Isn’t this happening nowadays?
There are husbands who are managing the house while the wives go to office.
These husbands are taking care of the kids, send them to school, cook, take care of the house, wash clothes and so on.
I don’t want to say anything on this….Let the right people say what they have to say.

Apa itu nafkah batin?
Bila cakap ‘batin’ je, semua bukak mata luas2..ada yang terlopong terus mulut…takde benda lain……benda tuuu je orang pikir.
Actually, whether we realized or not, aktiviti seks antara suami isteri is part of nafkah batin. Hanya satu cabang.
Banyak lagi nafkah batin yang jarang orang lelaki bagi. Nak complete tuntutan nafkah zahir pun bukan senang.

1. Being a good listener, mendengar keluhan isteri,
2. menolong menyelesaikan masalah isteri,
3. meringankan beban isteri,
4. menjadi tempat isteri bergantung,
5. menjadi counselor yang baik,
6. rakan berbual,
7. bermesra dan membelai dan yang paling penting
8. memberikan pendidikan rohani.
Nampak mudah?
Cakap senang la……..tapi ini lagi susah daripada bagi duit. Serious susah….kena sabar byk2 , keep reminding ourselves.
It is part of our responsibilities as outlined by our religion.

Some husbands berlagak macam bos kat rumah. Some just don’t care about their wives emotional needs and always blame on gender equality. Some husbands wants their wives to be like Saidatina Fatimah, but they are nowhere to compare to Saidina Ali. They love the type of wives who able to sacrifice their sleep, their rest time, just to entertain the husband . Macam orang gaji dibuatnye. Isteri solehah katanya Bila bini salah masak, pasal garam pun boleh tarik muka..psycho bini…Tapi bila cakap pasal suami soleh…..where are they? Turun dapur jarang sekali..kalau tak pandai pun..jengok2 la..teman2 la…setakat basuh pinggan, bersama2 tolong bini tak kan tak bleh kot??

Dalam kursus kawin kat Malaysia ni, banyak tanggungjawab suami yang disentuh.
Sebenarnya, masak, basuh baju tu semua tanggungjawab suami. Selama ni isteri2 dah banyak tolong kita. Suami ingat itu semua tanggungjawab isteri. Isteri tu pembantu suami ….Bila nama pembantu, bukan la maknanya dia buat semua seratus peratus.
Dah la zaman skang ni suma keja..sama2 keja…apa salahnye kita sama2 tolong…
Bila kita ada kuasa, maka lebih tinggi lah responsibilitynye. Allah bagi kudrat lebey sket..ada sebabnye. Jangan ingat senang nak jaga bini or senang nak lunaskan bagi ‘nafkah batin’

Bukan aku ni perfect, aku pun fail jugak. Cuma nak share apa yang aku rasa.
I sounds very emotional? Maybe…for those who knows me…Pathetic stories like this are everywhere. I really pray and hope I will not turn to that. NAUZUBILLAH.
Da, tolong ingatkan abang sokmo naa…

Kalau setakat, masuk kuar, masuk kuar dah anggap nafkah batin….silap la….. senang2 je nak kawin misyar….
Isteri dan anak adalah tanggungjawab suami….
Kalau baru SATU dah tak larat nak jaga , jangan la nak tambah BALA…(tapi kalau larat and ok…hehehhe….sukati koranglah….)

Menghilangkan sengal herbally - how to apply

So many people asked how did he apply ' a sanitary pad to the shoulder' - see previous post "BERITA TERKINI"
We had to get a camera, and captured this....


This is how he applied the 'emergency solution' to his aching shoulder.


p/s - and the pad was by the courtesy of the kakak who suggested the solution.

BERITA TERKINI...

My buddy in office was having a shoulder ache.
Dah tujuh lautan and tujuh gunung dia mencari penawarnye..
Namun masih belum berjumpa…
Sepurnama dia menanggung kesakitan…sehinggalah…….


Seorang kakak in the office suggested him to tampal the pad herba.





Without hesitation and in desperation…he tried…and……voila….it works …tapi tak la superb..
Cuma bak kata orang tua2 yang terlebih dulu makan garam K1, K2, K3 (ingat tak sample garam masa ujian amali kimia masa SPM, whereby the garams were labeled as K#, K# ..etc..), rotan tak ada..akar berguna jugaaaa

So, ini ada berita baru kepada penjual pad herba…
New testimony..kegunaan yang meluass..


Pad herba bleh pakai utk sengal2 badan…
Tapi untuk org yg ‘perangai dia sengal’ jgn cuba pakai…sbb nanti dia akan jadi lebih ‘sengal’ di otaknye..

MAJULAH PAD HERBA UNTUK KEGUNAAN LAIN…

Kehidupan segelintir yang terlampau - The Documentary



Finally, I got the chance to view my batch action on videos, 12 years back, during schooldays.
Those days, it was very rare for students to have video camera im school.

Thanks to Awie (kelab fotografi) who took advantage from the easy access of school's video camera to record our daily activities back in 1994 in Malay College Kuala Kangsar.

One dialog in the DVD :
A Teacher asked, " Siapa punye video ni?"
A voice replied, " Sekolah punye la cikgu"
Teacher questioned again, "Kenapa main dengan sekolah punye barang?"
The same voice proudly replied, "SEKOLAH PUNYE, KITE PUNYE LER CIKGU..."

Titled as "9094 - Kehidupan segelintir yang terlampau" the 'documentary' is a must have collection for all members in my batch.

The footage was so pure and sincere.

Each person punye berat was around 20 - 40 kg lighter than current weight. (ok la..bukan everyone, but easily 85%-90% of us) Aku pun 30kg lighter.
Perghh...Memang well develop lah aku ni.....hehehe
Anyway, back to the DVD.
For sure...it contains foul language and signs and obscene views....all the way from beginning......

Some interesting scene:
1. During assembly - sebelum cikgu masuk...macam beghukkk!!!
2. During lights off (where our life will start - our true colors).
3. Some people caught 'bertenent' ...hehehee
4. during games hours
5. kacau orang tido
6. mandi nak gi skolah
7. with class teacher
8. kacau F1
9. kacau F3
10. F3 urut F5.
11. 'gig' in the middle of tennis court tengah hari buta - by butterfingers
12. and few slides...photo from F1 - F5
.......and many more......

It surely made my memories flies back to 1994.
How I wish I could be there for few days.....worrying about nothing in this world........having fun and having free 'maid' to help on daily chores............
oso tukang uruttt......

Study?? hhehee..jauh sekali.......sib baik la idup lagi....memang 'bernasib baik' sangat2..
Takde satu pun gambar org tgh study rasanyeeee...
Kalau zaman skang buat cam tu...memang tertinggal kapal lah kottt...

Better late than nevah!

Hopefully, it is not too late to wish Happy Mothers Day to all mothers out there and Happy Teachers Day to all teachers and ex-teachers. Especially to my teachers, Indah’s teachers and the lady teacher who I sleep with everyday…..

Mother’s Day.
No special activities on that day as Haida was not feeling well.
Earlier, Indah presented Ummi her Mother’s Day card that she made in school.

As we reach home on Thursday…Indah was so excited….
Indah : “Ummi!!! Ummi!!! Indah ada buat card untuk Ummi!!! (flagging of her card while we were still in the car)

Abi : Waaa……cantiknye…Indah buat ke….?

Indah : A ah….cepat la masuk ummi…cepat lah…

When all of us were already inside the house, Indah starterd her ‘surprise’ to Haida..

Indah : Okayyyy…Close two eyessssss……close la ummi..cepat laaa…Ok dah…? Close two eyessss……(tangan dia yg pegang card tu letak kat blakang)…..SUPRIIIIISSSEEE!!!!!!

Laaa…..card tadi rupanya…hehehe..ingatkan ada surprise lain….

Ummi pun buat2 la terkejut…Indah pun happy sangat….Sampai dia repeat bape kali ntah…hehehe..kejap2 SURPRISE!!…SURPRISE!!!!!

On the next day, I drove my mum to Malacca untuk berubat. Masuk jauh ke dalam kampong area Jasin , near Bemban.
I think that was the best Mother’s Day gift ever from me to her as the trip was really worthwhile. It cured her illness quite drastically. Thank GOD for giving IMAM MAZLAN the power to heal..Syukurr..Alhamdulillah.

Teacher’s Day.
I don’t have a good memory with teachers. I've only been closed to few teachers during my 11 years studying… Hope this will be a written proof of how much I appreciate them.....
I learn to appreciate more since Cikgu Haida started to invole with in this profession.

Thank you teachers…wherever you are…

Macam lagu Bangau oh Bangau

Now….
Where should I begin.
A whopping record of 13 days without an entry……sigh….
Who am I? Where am I?

Actually, when anyone asked me why there’s no update to the blog, I don’t have any excuse but mere laziness.
However, when I think hard for a better reason…..I found out that it is because of my change of lifestyle lately.

As everyone knows, Haida is at her peak on morning sickness. And it hit her badly this time around. I think last time it was only 25% from current situation.

Cook…….bweekkk….
Smelling something cooking on the stove……bweeekkk
Taking bath…….bweekkkk…
Basuh baju….bweekkkkk
Basuh pinggan…bweekkkk
Eat…….bwekkkk
Bau bilik….bweekkk…
Bau kemenyan Indian neighbour….bweekkkk…
Bau Indah….bweekkk
Bau Abi Indah……sib baik ok >:) ……phewww…

So, due to that reason, nowadays when I reach home from office, I’ll be the one preparing the food, basuh pinggan, mandikan indah, basuh baju and so on..
I got so tired to stay up to update blog.

And my time in the office pun…..very limited…….. takde masa nak update blog. :(
I need to settle my work soonest possible, to allow me to go home sharp at 4pm…..kalau tak, sampai lambat…dah malam..sian Haida….
And at night..lepas siap suma..and suma dah tido....I will continue my work, logon to office..usually from 10pm -12pm...(ni sebab balik awal hari2 kan...)

On top of that…..expecting a second child is a different experience.
Dulu…….anak takde…so boleh bagi full attention kat Haida…
Skang….ada anak..dia pun nak attention…..Haida pun nak attention…
So, I was busy entertaining both, despite the daily chores…
Not to say that I do all, but I helped her in the area that she really, really can not go….
Kesian aku tgk dia…..

So, I think this is the best answer why I am not updating my blog as of late..
Macam lagu bangau oh bangau la plak….but it is true..true experience….

Baby dah masuk 11 minggu…ada 29 weeks lagi…..

Doa-doa kan lah semua ok ye….

No strings attached


Recently I bought a new 'toy' to use with my laptop. A wireless router.
This gadget worked superb as hoped and expected. I can go anywhere in the house, with my laptop, and still being connected to the NET.

Reason I bought it because my Ethernet Network card was struck by lightning. I did try the USB external network card, but I think I have wasted my money on it. And SInce my laptop has a built in wireless network card, why not I make use of it.

With this D-LINK (model DI 524) I am very much satisfied. Value for money.



Where is the laptop? Tinggal the wireless router je......


Atas katil....? Dah kira kes kacao daun ni...


Kat living (tingkat bawah) pun bleh access....no hal



Boring-boring....kat luar pun boleh sambil naik buaian....

"buai la....buai la...aku nak kawin dgn puteri raja...."

Tarzan n Jane pun bleh chat la ni..wireless maaaa......Nak baca blog 'That Thing I Do' pun no hal. Jangan Big Foot sudaaah..


Dalam keta pun boleh...provided keta tu tak berjalan lebih dari 100 meter laa. Cam KITT la plaksss

Luckily ada wireless connection timely. Sebabnye, nowadays, Haida tak leh nak ke dapur..so aku la kadang2 masak kalau tak beli makanan kat luar...Tak la boring tunggu benda atas dapur..Boleh gak download page, then continue masak....OK la tuuuu...


And lastly..desperate2...bleh lagi kat sini.........hehehe

Children Psychology 101

Yesterday, when Haida sent Indah to her kindergarten, one of the teacher called Haida to discuss on Indah recent development.

She told Haida that lately Indah’s has an attitude problem.
Cepat merajuk, nak suruh buat keja kena pujuk, suka menangis, tak nak makan, suka carik perhatian and so on.

And usually, this behaviour is as a result of the mother is expecting.

Wow!! Terelnye cikgu dia. I guess cikgu tadika boleh nampak ek…Budak yang tetiba berubah.

I was very touched to hear that. Sampai rasa nak balik terus rumah semalam to be with Indah, to make her feel that we love her, and to correct her perception.

Memang la, as of late, Haida kurengg sket ngan Indah. Morning sickness yang teruk, sampai kena gi klinik sbb tak makan and minum. Morning sickness yang tak mengenal morning. Banyak jugak case morning sickness yang tak terjadi on morning only.

So, I guess Indah need love.
So, when I reached home yesterday, the first thing I did was hug her. I gave her very special attention, and talk her thru her problem in school. Suruh dia janji jangan naughty and nangis and jadi good girl.

I will monitor her for this few weeks…
And kena bagi attention lebih sket. Also need to make her understand that ummi ‘sakit’/ ‘tak sihat’

Sian Indah………
