Photos from Breda, Netherland

Received sms from home:

"Indah nak comment kat blog abi boleh tak? Kesian Indah, hari2 mintak bukak blog nak tgk tempat mana abi pegi"

Sian dia... Sejak dia dah besar sket, inilah first time jauh ngan abi. sib baik seminggu je..
Since skang ni tgh lunch (aku x makan la kan...office kafeteria mana ada apa2 utk aku), upload lah gambar sket..
OK Indah, tgk gambar kat bawah ni....

Double click gambar untuk enlarge ok...

Ada gaya chauffer tak? betul ke eja tu? Masa ni baru sampai.

Got this for father's day.

Grand Tulip Keyser Hotel room

Hotel bicycle in the park

Grand Tulip Keyser, Breda

Nice summer

Serious time....The interesting part about this meeting/wkshop is all these people are from 6 different countries.

Dinner with my mgr's manager. Sate babi pun ada. Bali Restaurant

Dalam banyak2 makanan tu...ni je yang aku bleh telan..

Voetball Party...at Breda market square

Topi tu dpt free..mamat bendera tu bagi

After the game..

I am frustrated.....

The shops and supermarkets in Breda not only close on Sunday, but also from 5.30pm onwards, daily.

I was really happy when our first day of workshop ended at 5pm sharp. That means a lot of shopping time for me.

So, after we arrived in the hotel by taxi, we changed our clothes to our shopping gear.

But wait....What shopping??? All shops are closed and closing...

It was like Sunday.. Only there are more people around......

You can imagine this: Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman at 3am in an early Sunday morning...or maybe worst...

Ghost town.....
This is 12pm Sunday
This is 2pm Sunday and the same for other days after 5.30pm, but with a bit more people on the streets..

So, now I am wondering, when can I do the shopping??

Working hours will be until 5pm everyday. (or when the bosses said so..)
I only have Saturday but I will be in Germany on that day.. (amiiinnn)

And I am worried of the list of souvenirs....My god..it's huge..
But it's for you my friend.....heheheh..Let hope I can find one good time to borong the souvenirs.
This small town, dah la kedai tutup awal...you can only find boutiques or restaurants..
That's about it!!

Orang nak bagi duit pun tanak bagi bisness...
cam ni la org dutch kat breda ni.......

I need to go to Amsterdam...
But do I still have the time???

Well..for me to figure out...

p/s - I have two slots for my presentation today....Pray for me...Yesterday was a good start...

Safely arrived in Breda, Netherlands

I safely arrived in Breda.
Used the hotel's bicycle, and toured the city...
A lot of people cycling. Family, couples....all are cycling...
With the cool brezze, we hardly get sweat..
However the city.......on Sunday it is like a ghost city.

Right now, I am really hungry..
It is veryhard to find food on Sunday.
Found one halal restaurant...but it is closed.
Hopefully it will open tonight or tomorrow.

I have some backup foods with me....but...

Am using "free internet computer". Only have 20 minutes....

Will update the photos later..if possible...

till then..adiosssss..

p/s Wish me luck!!....Have another plan to make my wish to be in one of world cup venue comes true..

Worldcup....here I come!!! Hopefully... :|

I am going to Holland for a business trip this Saturday.
I will be going there alone, and join one of my colleague from KL, who is already there. After a week in the Breda office (holland), we have plan to go on a short journey to one of the world cup venue, Cologne.
Cologne is the nearest to Breda (office in Netherland). See map.




The only sad thing is, during that time, the first round has ended and the stadium will rest for 3 days. So, we can't join the crowd to watch any game at the big screen outside the stadium.
We can't wait for 3 days....We need to take our flight home.

One of my colleague in Breda office told me that it is not very straight forward to get a train to Cologne from Breda. Minimumly we have to take 2 trains on a 4 hours journey.
The online tickets has been sold out since last month.
And there are also some other complicated matters. And for us who have limited time (we need to catch our plane in Amsterdam) it is quite risky.
However, I am determine to find the best solution, whatever it takes, for me to be in Cologne.

Initially I planned to stay for extra four days at one of my friend's fiancee house. We have been communicating on this.
However the plan was cancelled later.

Sigh....
Really hope to be in Cologne..
Pray for me...pleasee...I want to be there..This is the closest chance so far.....

p/s - tak sia2 aku sokong holland tahun ni and euro yang lepas...dapat gak layan street party ngan dutch lady and men masa kat holland nanti...yihaaa.....ORANGE!!!!

The day I did not bring my own camera.

I was on my way back from work. Got a ride on a colleague' s car.
We were on Jalan Syed Putra when we saw two weird vehicles. I was blaming myself for not having my digital camera at that time.
Luckily Lynn has her new cellphone. And it is 2.0 megapix. (better than mine..) So I borrowed her camera and paparazilly took these two photos... With my paparazi skills and Lynn's paparazi driving skills, we managed to get a good shot of the two weird vehicles.



We usually see this sign on PLUS official vehicle or road maintenance lorry from Jabatan Kerja Raya. But for a Kembara?? Maybe the signals are not working or the driver had a bad experience , got knocked few times although signals has been given....who knows..
If there is a need for 4th brake lights, I bet the driver will install the red colored light that we can find on traffic lights .

And this one? Can you notice the word 'besar' on the plate number

Selamba jer........tak pulak kena tahan polis/jpj

Ini producer Roda Impian ke? Very the obsessed the one with the word 'Wang Besar' or in this case 'WNG besar'.

But looking at the car, no doubt the owner is earning wang besar. Maybe that is his lucky plate number or the tok bomoh yang suggest....

ntahapa la diorang ni..

I was hoping Japan to win over Australia. Reason: Simple. I dont like OZ in any way...

It was indeed a good game by both side...Japan goalkeper is superb but he is also to be blame on Socceroos 1st goal...
But the rest...Japan simply losing focus....as they try to add more goals...


Sigh....
Jepun...Jepun....rugi..rugi....

Don't underestimate your kid

Indah will soon grow to be a good photographer. Macam KNO 94 .

That, if the quality that she showed in the photos below (which she took, without me knowing) grow as she grows. It was during the our holidays in Terengganu.

Everybody was having a siesta after lunch. But not Indah.
She took my digital camera, explore the camera, and snap 99 shots. Never did I realize that she is capable in operating the digital camera, whatelse taking some 'creative' shots. hehehe

Below are some of the shots..... (and she is 3 yrs 8 months old - don't know whether at this age, it is normal for today's kids)

Wood carpet

Hidung sapa ni??

oo..idung Ayah Adam dia.....candid tgh tido

Holiday kat kampung - KT

Aku maleh nak maintain photopages (although it might be easier for abon to browse - see previous post) So aku pun buh la gambar ni kat sini.

How I spent my recent holidaysss in Terengganu...hehehe (of course la byk lagi benda lain aku buat......)

Melentur buluh biar dari rebungnyee...... baru lepas beli telekung kat pasar kedai payang, KT

Berebut nak main slide.. - Kat tepi pantai Batu Burok, KT

Indah and her cousin Fatin Humaira...playing the bubbles kat umah tok di Kampung Binjai Berambu, Kuala Terengganu...

No matter how hard the Abi tried....still belah kiri yang lebih berat.... - kat tepi pantai Batu Burok, KT

Didie Ezral dah kahwin....selamat lagi sorang anak Adam!

Congratulations Chibiuk!!!

Didie Ezral and wife.....duduk tak sama rendah..and of course la diri pun tak sama tinggi..tapi takpe..orang kata murah rezki kan.....amiiinnn

On Saturday, on the way back from Terengganu, I went straight to Chibiuk house for his wedding. He is one of my school mate in MCKK.

When arrived, Badut is already on his way back. I failed to record him as the bestman on that day...(he has another wedding to attend)
I heard that Kalai and Aweng had oso left..

Indah, Haida and I joined Izam and Abon's family. However, we changed table to join epit and mpro (they has just arrived, abon and izam dan kenyang dah....)

Coincidently, mpro pointed out that it was blogger's table. epit and mpro are oso actively blogging. And the other table (where izam and abon were seated) is 'buta IT' table. Abon defended himself by saying,
"Weii...aku dah bukak photopages aa semalam......" hehehhe try lagi abonnn

O.k..back to Chibiuk's wedding..

The crowd from my batch was suam2 kuku..tak berapa cukup korum....Maybe sbb cuti weekend panjang..so ramai yang out of town...

The food - cukuuppp..

The air minum - aiyaakk..yang grape tu manis giler...........

The temperature was €38 degrees...

The atmosphere was like at the Ujibakat AF studios...the karaoke people who endlessly sang the whole list of songs available in the catalogs.......sigh..tatau nak habaq lagu mana lagi...
dah la speaker menghala ke arah kitorang......but yang peliknya tak hujan2 pun... Tahannnn je la tinga...........


I did asked Chibiuk to get mpro to show of his skills....(which aku tak penah tgk) but dia malu....
So melepas la nak dengar mpro nyanyi...

The bride and groom with friends and their wives

Look at the sizes....Baru lima orang.....sib baik makanan cukup...

p/s cuba carik aksi yang boleh disalahtafsir oleh anasir2 jahat....

And aku rasa ni bukan perkahwinan misyar...perkahwinan biasa2 je....chibiuk ni kan ke kaya raya......hehehhee

Selamaaatttt...Alhamdulillahhhh

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

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

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…

We need your prayers

Thank you...

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…

p/s KNO, aku curik gambar nko.....

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………

What Should You Major In?

My 100th post

Alhamdulillah..
I reach my 100th post. Looking forward for another 100 or 1000. InsyaAllah.
For the past 99 post, I might have cheered up people or at least communicating with them.
I might also have offended people, 'mengumpat' and so on.
I am glad that someone has pointed out some of my 'wrong doing' in blogging.
It was not my intention to spread hatred, bad mouthing, gossiping or any other negative aura in this blog . It is merely my day-to-day story, my keluhan (as described by nanot) my experience, my happiness..my life.

Although I was very particular and careful for each word I was using, sometimes, i might be carried away with emotion.
I dont usually create enemies. But I don’t spare anyone who want to make me their enemies either. (Not a good attitude though)

Coincidence

I don’t believe in coincidence. Semua yg terjadi dgn izin Allah.
So I took a second look on the issue brought up by anonymous in my 99th post. It was indeed a message for me to muhasabah and be more sensitive with my writings as more people are reading it from day to day.
I know that more than 50 people read this blog but I don’t know the exact figure.
So, if any of my writing contains mengumpat, so I better take a serious look on it. I dont want this blog to add to all my existing sins! This alert came as I celebrated my 1ooth post.

And let us be reminded again on the greatest sin from mengumpat. We might everyday committing it. It is even 'considered' a norm in our society.
Let's avoid it whenever we are aware that we are committing a GREAT sin. Insya Allah

Definition of 'mengumpat'

I went to the net, and do some findings on ‘Mengumpat’/’Ghibah’/’Gossipping’
And this is what I found, closed to what I am facing.

Excerpt from :
www.geocities.com/bimbinganmukmin/20_kitab_bencanaLisan.htm
Pengertian mengumpat dan batasnya

“Di antaranya juga, jika ia menyebut keaiban seseorang di hadapan orang ramai, tetapi mereka tidak dapat mengagak siapa orang yang ditujukan celaan itu, lalu ia menyebut pula. “Hairan betul si Ahmad Albab itu dengan kelakuannya!” Hingga apabila di dengar lagi oleh orang-orang itu, mereka pun faham siapa orang yang ditujukan celaan tadi."

What do I understand from this sentence?

Kalau kita cerita pasal sesuatu yg buruk berkenaan seseorang, tanpa menyebut namanya atau tanpa menggambarkan secara jelas sehingga orang tidak faham siapa orang itu. Ia mungkin sekadar menjadi cerita, tanpa mengaibkan sesiapa. Tetapi, sebaik sahaja kita memberi clue atau indication yang boleh mengaitkan orang itu secara tepat dan jelas, maka terjadilah ‘mengumpat’.

Wallahua’lam….

Soalan
Boleh atau tidak jika kita cerita sesuatu berkenaan seseorang, tetapi kita menjaga maruahnye dengan tidak memberitahu siapa orangnya?? Adakah dia mendapat malu?? Adakah dia diaibkan?? Kalau ya, bagaimana?

Maybe ada antara post aku (satu or dua) yang terlajak umpat. Tapi bukan semua post. InsyaAllah 98% aku tidak mengumpat.

Aku mungkin salah tafsir, tapi buat sesiapa yang faham, tolong lah comment and betulkan kalau aku salah. Aku boleh admit kalau aku salah. No hal punye..
Baik orang betulkan aku, daripada aku jadi degil dan tuli dari sebarang teguran . Nauzubillah…

To anyone who love to practice ‘baling batu sembunyi tangan’, please stop it.
Come to me face to face. or even email me. or call me. or do it in a positive way.

I am a human. I am perfectly imperfect. I have commited sin. But I quickly repented. Then I commited sin again. Again I repented.

If I am wrong or deemed wrong by you, by all means, please let me know. As a friend, or someone who knows me, why must you condemn me? In front of others? Why must be so sarcastic?
After all, I was not condemning you. What have I done to you to deserve this?
Do not create another sin, just to correct someone mistake. The aim will not justify the means. Matlamat tidak boleh menghalalkan cara.

I apologized for being rude in my comments, but that was my first reaction to a very sarcastic, kurang ajar remarks, from a visitor to a host, with the intend to menjatuhkan maruah. I was very angry…then. Simply because my blog is like my home. And I can't tolerate someone to degrade me in my home.

Dengan penuh rasa kekurangan dan merendah diri, aku mintak maaf kat sapa2 yang terasa dengan penulisan aku dalam blog ni.
Since I am aware the blog is open to public, I should be held responsible for the contents.
I dont want to be questioned later...........

There is no need for us to involve in a warless battle. Banyak benda lain nak kena soal dalam kubur, so jangan lah tambah benda2 remeh macam ni.
Peace….Insya Alah…

Well.....

Allo people....

What can I say........
It has been a week without any update..
I was bogged down with so many unnecessary outstanding issue, created by some non-professionals in the office.

I am a focal contact for this one project. And my job is to coordinate this project and work with the operations people.

Seems easy? straight forward? Actually yesss...BUT..

When you work with a bunch of non-professionals, you have to follow up with all their action items.
They will not be responsible or act on them, or move their asses around to find the answer, but only wait to be prompted by me!!

Patut ke tak patut??

And the best part is, I was told by their supervisor that I could be more pro active (ayat backing anak buah) to make them respond...wwwhhhhaaaattt???

Hallo.....it is your responsibility to follow up what ever taks given to you.
Aku ni bukan supervisor dia, mentor dia, team lead dia, mak dia, cikgu dia, orang gaji dia
Bukan budak skolah rendah beb..Buat la keja sendiri.kalau tak tau...tanyaa...

Tu baru satu deliverable in one project...
Kalau all the four projects that I'm currently handling??? kalau satu project ada 10 deliverables by other parties? Aku nak follow up semua ke??

Itu pun aku dah bagi dua reminder, both copying the supervisor...
DUA reminder..siap ada bold , kaler biru lagi asking them to revert to ASAP should they face any problem. Apa lagi nak??
Tak bagitau aku pun yang diorang tak reti nak buat. Aku ingat suma ok...Dah la benda tu tak susah. I just need 1/2 an hour je nak explain.

Are they implying Lotus Notes communication is not official anymore? And all communication thru emails should be follow up by phone call? BULLSHIT!!
If you still have that old mindset, then just remove your personal mailbox, and wait for phone call!!
(FYI - Our company acknowledge Lotus Notes as a formal means of communication, but not phone call)

Come on la!!!.....dont put the blame on others la...
Aku pun ada keja jugak...
Aku balik lagi lambat dari korang , dari bos korang tau....Jangan la nak suruh aku follow up semua...
kalau dah ada rotan...ngan bos-bos skali aku rotan!

I was totally pissed off when I know the action item was not done!
The reason ? Simple .. "Kitorang tak tahu la cam mana nak buat?"
How nice ....................................and stoopid.

I am actually helping them to ease their work...I have no interest on this project as it will not affect me daily. It is for them!!....I am just helping them.

Please la....jadi la responsible sikit...
Pakai la otak...jangan nak bergantung kat kerja routine je......
Actually byk lagi nak membebel..tapi sbb byk keja lagi..so...better stop now..

p/s - Sowie aa..lama tak update......takde citer menarik except kejaaaa....otak asyik pk keja..

Apa itu hucs?

Few weeks ago, I went to INTEC UiTM (formerly known as PPP UiTM, Shah Alam)
It is the place where I completed my American Degree Program (ADP) and continued to Malaysian Degree Program (UiTM) hehehe.
I spent five years there from 95-99.

I was there to watch CEKAK NITE. It is the nite for Silat Cekak Ustaz Hanafi (SCUH) to promote their martial arts, and register new intake.
They will do a high class, nail bitting and action packed silat demonstration.
I wanted to see how they have progress, while meeting colleagues, instructors, and VIPs from the organization. It is an annual affair for Persatuan Seni Silat Cekak Ustaz Hanafi . I was heavily involved in Cekak Nite from 1996-1999.

Sidetrack...
I was actively in this martial organization on the national levels. I love this Silat and joined activities to promote this Silat to as far as Sarawak. However, I backed out in 1999 due to some conflicting principles.

I was very attached to SCUH. Every day will not passed without thinking about SCUH. Any offer to join any activity, be it demonstration participants, instructors, trainer, tester (for the sijils) or any religious activities or the silat ceremonies, I will try to make that as priority. Even during my study years, my schedule was packed with training sessions, silat classes outside campus (night or evening) and other ceremonies in Shah Alam/KL area.
GET A LIFE!! some might say...well what I can say is Silat was 60% of mylife, other means of entertainment was 30% and study 10%. That is why aku sampai skang takde rasa nak buat master...tak suke study! (alasan)

When I made the decision to not continue with SCUH, I was very depressed, frustrated and bored. I kept thinking about Silat Cekak Hanafi, and occasionally joined them for social activities or where I can give help to my friends.

The nickname hucs in this blog, was my chat nickname after I excluded my self from Silat Cekak Hanafi (SCUH) activities. It is the reverse of SCUH!! I wanted to feel attach to it.
Seeeee..now you know how obsessed I was!!!

Back to Cekak Nite.

That nite I managed to reunite with Hardi, Badut, Admen, Putra, and Asri. Others, I dont know them.
Putra(koleq98), my junior 4 years in koleq was the commander and also the hero for Umum Serangan Bersenjata. (Same post as me. Hardi (koleq91) and Badut (koleq94) were also once the demo squad captain).
Putra perfomance was very good despite of not being picked up for any role during my years..hahahaha. Bakat terpendam rupanye budak ni..
(They are actually the 2004 & 2005 (overall) national level champion. During my time..we never got overall champion. The best was Naib Johan kategori pisau by Badut and Lab and Naib Johan Serangan Umum Tgn Kosong)

Putra tgh belasah orang..hehehe...cayalah

Indah was very excited to watch the demonstration. And like usual, balik rumah...hiap....hish.....hiap..dia pun mula la bersilat...isk....risau aku..tumbuk betul2...sakit wooo..hehehe
Indah is making Haida worry about the whole idea to introduce her to Silat . Hiap..hish..haaiitt....iyaahh..!!

5 years ago, I had promised my self that I will try to train this silat to my kids, for personal use during emergency. Badut agreed to help me with this (dulu laa..skang tak tau la plak..Kalau kau nak badut, kita train anak ko skali)

Silat is very good. We Malays have our own Martial Arts. It is good to uphold our own heritage.
Some might say, "Alaa..skang ada pistol, tak main la silat2 ni". and my reply will be "Mana pistolnye? Ada skang ke? Aku pukul ko skang, ko ada pistol?"

What I mean is, for emergency, for personal use, for our physical protection or our dignity, silat can be used. Kalau mati pun, takde la mati katak tak melawan. Kalau melawan pun, tak la bodoh2 melawan (tu kira mati katak la jugak). Kalah menang , hidup mati tu kuasa Allah. Usaha yang penting.
Kalau kita tak berusaha nak equip diri kita, nak prepare technically, cam ner Allah nak bantu kita..
Tapi...kalau bleh selamatkan diri...larii laa.....apa nak carik gaduh kan..tambah musuh..cuma kalau terpaksa.....dah tak bleh lari..tak kan nak biar je orang laukkan kita.

I dont suggest whoever read this to take martial art class, but please, please, please dont belittle those yang besar hati nak join martial arts..

Encourage them, your friend, ke, your kids ke, you siblings ke......jangan discourage..coz from experience, I got a lot of discouragement rather than support!

Biarkan Si Luncai terjun dengan labunye

Last Friday night , I went to watch GUBRA by Yasmin Ahmad at Bukit Raja TGV.

Everything went well until this 'couple' came in.

Both were male and lenggok suara diorang were very mendayu2 gitu. With the suara garau ala2 mak nyah, they commentedthe story all the way from beginning to end.

Actually, after a few minutes, I was very disturbed.Aku pandang lama kat diorang (they were one seat next to me), dia buat tak reti je..(nak pandang lagi lama , takut dia ingat aku nak ngorat diorang plak)
From one scene to another, suma dia komplen and comment. Sakitttt telinga aku.....

I was about to explode, but I was with my wife. She warned me to ignore them. Since aku dah janji ngan dia nak behave and improve my temper kat orang2 bodoh di atas jalan/kedai makan/wayang/etc... aku pun kena la tahan marah.
Baik aku ikut cakap bini aku, kang dia tanak kawan aku kang..lagi payah..

Tapi dalam hati meluap-luap...

But after a few minutes, I managed to rationalize. Nasib baik la aku tak buang masa sound diorang tu..buat rosak my movie outing je..Biasala..setan hasut masa marah tadi.

So, I just concentrated (hard) on the movie, and enjoyed my night outing with my wife (without Indah)
"Biarkan luncai dgn labunye"

Moral of the story, jgn layan org tak cukup kepala hotak..sebab dengan mengkontrol marah kita, kita akan jadi orang cukup berakal.. :)

p/s Hucs suke bini Bilal..cute...

Terkena buatan orang....... Kenapa?? Tak Percaya ke??

The flood that hit my home in Bandar Puteri (see previous post) also bring GOOD news
The news that I've been waiting for sooo long...

Background
Haida injured herself during the flood. Jatuh terlentang...
So on Monday, we went to clinic because the pain did not go.
When the doctor wanted to prescribe the painkillers, she asked whether Haida is late or not.
We confidently answer that it should not be the case.Ye la..baru je check..takde apa2 pun..
But then, I still insist the doctor to confirm. So dia pun gi la buat UPT.

We were so confident it would be negative, that we told thedoctor that we dont have to come in again. Just take the medicine at the counter and pay.

But then, the doctor called Haida back to her room. And I pun heran la jugak.Nak explain apa lagi kalau negative kan..
Then, Haida asked me to join her in the room. Aikkk?? Betul ke apa aku pikir ni??Haida angkat kening sebelah sambil senyum.
And I saw this.

APAAAA!!!!???

DUA LINE!!!!???

Masa bila?? Yang mana satu?? Cam tak percaya je....!!!

Confirm kena buatan org yang berusaha keras.....MUAHAHAHAHA!!
Mendatangkan hasil jugak usaha-usaha yg berterusan dan consitent itu...
Usaha yang 'mengenal penat dan lelah' tapi tanpa putus asa..hehehe

Alhamdulillah.....Indah akan dapat adik...mid-end December.
Let's pray for the baby and mom's health....and the father also laaa...

Oo...kalau rumah banjir, maksudnye nak dapat rezeki la ek?? melimpah-ruah la harapnye. Amin

Wet world

I always tell my friends that if they want to play futsal, they can come to my house in Bandar Puteri. Why? Because I got very few funiture in my new house. Blum ada wang mau beli banyak sekaligus maaa...

But if anyone come to my house last weekend (2am to be specific), they will not able to play futsal, but maybe main kapal kertas atas air.

My one and only hard-earned house was hit by flood. :( It was a very sad thing to accept.

12.30am - baru nak tido. Heard the rain has just started.....Ignored buy very worried. Our wet kitchen always naik air bila hujan lebat more than an hour.

1.00am - Terjaga.
Hucs - Daa, gi tgk dapur. kot2 air dah naik...
Daa - ala...takde apa2..baru je hujan...

1.15am - Terjaga lagi...but no action taken.

1.30am - Terjaga. This time I got up and went to the kitchen to check. Ya Allah!!..to my suprise, not only the wet kitchen, the dry kitchen pun dah masuk air..all the barang plastik suma dah floating.........damn!!..the fridge!!! the fridge!!!..

I switched off the power and we carried the fridge to our living room.
Then..what's next? mati akal aku..air naik cepat gilos bas bas bas bas.....aiyaakkk
Then we moved all electrical appliances to the living room. The were all on the floor as my house x de cabinet lagi.

Baru nak rehat, I sensed that the water dah nak masuk living room plak....
aa sudaaahhh..

We moved all things onto the stairs and tingkat atas.
Then I realized!!...The store room!!! (same level with the living room)
Aku dah penat dah..so I just saved item yang memang tak boleh kena air langsung..itu je yang mampu.

I called Majlis Perbandaran Klang hotline to seek help on pumping out water, but they transfered my call to bilik gerakan bencana JPA3, where one of the officer ask me ," Encik perlukan pemindahan ke?" Ada tak dewan orang ramai kat kawasan tu? "
Hehehe...nasib baik la tak jadi reality....

2.15am. It was already ankle-deep water in my living room. The worse was the wet kitchen. Closed to knee-deep.

Then I remembered my neighbours. Mesti ada yang tak jaga dari tido lagi.
So I got an umbrella and a jacket and rushed to their houses. Some were already up. We failed to wake up this one neighbour. Only after 1/2 an hour, he woke up. He looked around, smile and then masuk tido balik!!!?? boley tak??
Maybe dah takde benda dah nak save..so dia buat dono je..hehehe..lantakk la..
Then I started to take photos. And below are few of them.

Moved my car to higher ground

Bandar Puteri Klang Water Resort

The next day, we were told that, not only bandar puteri klang was hit. The flood was caused by a faulty kunci air and more than five other housing areas and tamans were affected. Some of them, the MPK (Majlis Perbandaran Klang) was still pumping out water after more than 12 hours, form the rain started. As for my area, the water cleared at 7am. Thank god!


p/s - my network card kat umah rosak. Ada masa kat office je nak update blog. dah lah keja tgh banyak skang ni.....payahhhhh..

"I sell panty liner..."

What do we understand about open office concept?

Open office concept is where your privacy is not as great as closed office.
I used to work in single room for few years (4 years) before this open concept being introduced in my company, or department to be specific.

Not like last time, I feel that this new office is too open. I can not sayang2 with my wife on the phone anymore. Not comfortable and orang lain pun akan muntah.hehehehe
Sikit2 bisik ok lah...

And we have been given training on how to BEHAVE in an open concept ofice, so we wont offend others, or embarassed ourselves.

However, this one colleague of mine, despite of never being in single room office since her day one in the company, still could not comprehend the need to be sensitive to others in the open office.

She yelled to people few meters from her, talk on the phone like she is in the closed public booth or her bedroom and mumbling loudly on her work.
She just moved near to me few weeks back or a month or so. First, I could ignore, but from time to time, I feel irritated.
However, sometimes, I feel it funny and it tickled me to the bone!!!

A line like this would definitley stop me from continuing my work....

(On the phone) "Berangin tak? Diorang kata berangin sikit. Tapi kena letak air sikit la....."

You want to know on what topic is she talking about? HERBAL SANITARY PAD!!!!
HAHAHAHA....memang kelakor..

And then other lines about credit card, top up , how to go to meeting on the herbal pad business, stock panty liners and 1001 stories, that goes thru my busybody ears. Also Lotus Notes keep crashing with Dr Watson error and going for prayer.

No wonder my performance is dropping nowadays....

Panaasssss!!!

This morning, a bit late than usual, at 6.30am I arrived at Klang bus station for my daily bus to KL.
The front bus was full, so I went to the second bus.
Apparently I was the first one waiting for the second bus door to open.

People behind me dah start sibuk2 nak menyelit....Setakat jadik org kedua, or ketiga pun nak berebut jugak...tak paham langsung aku!

O.k lah..I just ignored them, but saje buat lambat2 when the door opened.Hehehe..bagi diorang lagi rasa nak berebut...Tu takde hal la..

Next, I got on the bus and handed the driver RM 10 note for the ticket.I paid for two (my brother was with me) so, the total is RM 6. Balance should be RM 4.

Ntahkenapantah...suddenly the driver talk to me with a very sarcastic tone..
" Mana ada duit tukar pagi-pagi ni..?!! Pegi duduk dulu..." (teringat iklan dulu2, orang beli stem 20 sen pakai duit RM 50)

Aik?? ni apa hal ni..dah bertahun aku naik bas, tak penah pun orang sound.Aku pun naik la lambat2, sambil tengokkkkkkkk muka driver tu...
adakah dia gurau2 di pagi hari?? atau malam tadi dia tak dapat??

The Klang-KL-Klang busses nowadays, mana ada pakai machine yg masuk duit tu..
The driver will be the cashier, and the always have change..always..
O.k la..kalau takde pun..cakap la elok2..
It so happened that I am the first person..and dia tak prepare the change..
Orang blakang2 aku bagi duit RM 10 tak pulak dia sound...

I was so disturbed with him...that I have planned my words, before I see him again to claim my change...
"Bang..dah cukup ke duit baki tadi?" I asked him after I saw he had collected the fairs from few other passengers.

Nak tau dia jawab apa?

While handing the balance to me he said, " Lain kali nak naik bas, bawak la duit kecik..!!!" also with the same tone as earlier..

Aku terus jadi panas...

I said, (loud n clear..satu bas dengar)
"Abis tu kalau dah takde? Tak bleh naik la?! Lain kali tulis kat pintu bas tu,
Sila sediakan Wang kecil (by the way, tak de pun kat luar on anywhere in the bus)Kalau takde wang kecil, jangan naik! boleh?"

And added some few lines like
"Driver lain tak penah kecoh pun!. Orang naik bertahun2, tak de hal pun. Yang pagi2 ni nak bagi rosak mood orang ni kenapa?? Apa masalahnye ni??!!"

Tak jawab pulak..sian plak aku tgk dia terkebil...buat dono je..
Come on la...Customers always right la joe!!..kalau salah pun, cakap la elok2..
Memang kepala diorang ni besar sket...tapi bukan suma, ada yg baik.

I am a person, who always be courteous to others, who ever they are.
But I will also be the most rude person, if they started, who ever they are!

I know my wife doesnt like the second attitude, but I am improving from day to day.I dont want to be arrogant or pemarah. Biar orang buat jahat, but we should maintain our pride, dignity and quality of a muslim.

Tapi tadi terlepas jugak..hehehe..

Ini bukan cerita contoh...patut benda ni , sapa2 yang baca, jadikan sempadan la..
Pikir2 balik..stoopid je marah2 orang ni..kan?? Buat hilang mood je..hampehh

The dilemma of being an AFRORAMA

I am in a dilemma.
I was force to join the Esso Recreation Club Inter Department Karaoke Contest by my fellow afrorama group members.
This year, my department top management is very serious about it. Our department holds a very impressive track record, but we did not participate in 2004 n 2005.
This ERC Karaoke Inter Dept is a serious matter for all dept's top management.
They would go all out to ensure their dept win the title. Some forked out money form their own pocket, and in some events, it could reach up to RM 2K or more.

So , this year, EMIT (ExxonMobil IT) department wants the title back . (We last won on 2002) The IT teambuilding club is being pressed by the top management to work hard and coordinate a team to participate into this contest.

Why am I in the picture? I was part of the AFRORAMA team, who won the 2004 GIS Idol (GIS is the old name for EMIT). We sang 'kahayalan' by ruffedge and VE.
But that was different. Itu untuk suka2. And it was on 100% vote. (maybe becoz we were popular la kann)

AFRORAMA - rapper in sports attire

For this ERC contest, the judges are like from Yamaha skool of music and all professionals outside the company.
It is a grand annual event by ERC, and the winner will perform at the company annual dinner.
If I were to participate, a lot of time and effort is required.
I don't think I can spent too much time on this, with my current worload and nights audioconference.

To Azry, Pecal, Mior - I apologize for letting you down...
I will not be able to stay committed, thus it is fair for me to back out.
On the rapping part, anyone can do it...tak kan takde org bleh ganti aku kot.....

Indah's skool field trip - aku yang lebeh...

I went to Indah's Kindergarten field trip last Saturday to Domino's Pizza and High 5 bread factory.
We gathered at the kidergarten's compound as early as 7.45am.
At that point, baru I noticed, that I'm the only male joining the trip.
Tapi OK la jugak kan..aku takde masalah kawan ngan mak2 budak and cikgu2 budak ni..hehehehe
o kkkkkkkkkkk..sapa kata tak o kkkkkk... muahahahaha...Tapi kena kontrol sket la kan..mem ada kat sebelah...heheheh
tak..aku sebenarnye budak baik..mem ada ke, takde ke..behave...yes..behave..behave like what? hehehhe

I dont know why, but masa tengah beratur tu one boy from 4 years old class, started to cry..mula-mula...sket je...
like..sob..sob..sob..., but then after few minutes, it turned into UWAAAAAA!!!!!
Reason : Scared? missing the mother? i can't tell.
Yang peliknye, there's another boy who started crying, after he saw the first boy in front of him crying.
Pulaaakkkkk....?? tau la nak pegi domino's pizza, tak kan menangis pun domino...isyy...
Then masa tu plak, I saw this one kid, mula2 ok je...then dia plak yg dah mencebikkk bila tengok dua2 dah nangis.
and finally.......dia pun meletup jugak...
pergh..power la diorang ni punye nangis. kuatnye resonance sampai others pun bleh nangis as well..
nangis sama2, but without the same reason.
Pas tu bila bas dah sampai..ada plak yang termuntah lah..isk...memang payah bawak budak2 kecik ni field trip.
Before naik bas, diorang berikirar and baca doa naik kenderaan...

ikrar : "kami berikrar, akan mengikut perintah Allah, ibu bapa dan guru, serta saling tolong menolong sesama rakan" lebih kurang gitu la .

Then bila suma dah under control....we boarded the bus ..and the journey began..
First we went to Dominos Pizza at Careefour Subang. Bleh tengok cam ner diorang buat pizza..and makan pizza tu..tu je..
Bleh buat Pizza sendiri..blasah je topping apa..muahahahaha..tapi serious..
Yg buat sendiri punye, rasa cam tak sedap..ntah apa2..byk sgt tangan..
Tapi budak2 besor je la buat. Anak owner bawak geng2 dia dari convent klang, form 2 students. ada la 7 orang.
Masa diorang buat pizza la aku menyelit, sbb masa budak2 kecik, diorang tunjuk je..x bleh buat
hehehhe...




Next went High 5 bread factory at Shah Alam. They have this proper tour program on the history of bread and its evolution. Dia panggil bread town. Good for kids, and mak bapak kids pun. The factory is the largest in South East Asia.



First they played the video on bread history, and then journey thru the bread tunnel.
Memang exciting la gak...RM 10 sorang for adults...
