no matter

it does not matter if u have a fever,


or a headache,


or even, facing both traumatic diarrhea and extreme vomiting,





u have just got to put on a brave face of pink healthiness and watch the game. it was worth it.















(i know, i know. i should've post this before the game. but what can i do? i was all of the above. except maybe i am still in the 'am' tense, not 'was' tense.)

add some spice, don't despise;)

it is really, really GOOD. for those of us who need a few shots of laughter in our lives, this movie is for you.





so hurry and go to the nearest dvd store, borrow from a friend or just download from the internet by torrent. make sure it had DvDRip at the tail of the title. not that i download movies using torrent. that would be mean. i support our filming industries. that dvdrip stuff just a tip i received from a friend. oh, another tip; avoid using broadband modem when downloading movies. it'll just drive ur modem nuts later. no, not crazy. just going at snail-speed. not that the broadband-speed at the campus was not already slow. try use streamyx. home-line. that's better.

p/s: i really like those minions. they're (and i am not a girl who usually tries to always be in touch with her feminine sides) VERY cute. i also like the girls; margo, edith and agnes. especially edith. and steve carell accent. some quirks are just worth mentioning.

sehari dalam kuliah, lama-lama jadi pandai

Kesukaan menulis itu tidak pernah ditinggalkan. Biarpun menumpu dalam pengajian bahasa sekarang, menulis seenaknya seperti zaman sekolahnya pernah membenarkan, tidak terjadi lagi. Masuk sahaja usianya 18 tahun tepat 1.32 petang 16 Jun yang lalu, ayah tidak berkira-kira lagi untuk membelikannya sebuah ASUS siri A. Sejak itu, tulisannya (yang memang sekian waktu dikutuk oleh kak cik dan abang uda sebagai buruk) bertambah teruk dan menyakitkan mata kondisinya. Tetapi, keinginan hatinya untuk menulis selalu ada dan meluap-luap apabila memandang helaian-helaian putih yang bergaris tetapi kosong. Bukanlah dia tidak menulis lagi dan telah menjadi ulat buku yang ulung dalam kelas seramai 37 orang itu, tapi mungkin lebih sesuai disebut menaip – di laman blognya.

Sebelum kelas Emotional Intelligence (Kecerdasan Emosi) hari Ahad itu, sahabat sekelasnya Saddly (sebut: Sadli) datang dengan harapan dia boleh membantunya membina laman blog sendiri. Keterujaan Saddly untuk mulai menaip kepada dunia membuatkan dia tersentak sedikit. Dia masih mengemaskini blognya, semakin kerap sekarang kerana dia sudah ada cik teruntum – ASUS itulah, namun ‘hantu’ menulis yang pernah bertahun-tahun merasuk mungkin sudah menemui ‘tuan’ baharu. Saddly itulah, mungkin. Sampai orang suruh dia hantar karya ke majalah Cakna (majalah IPG) yang mahal (sampai RM20 seorang kena bayar) itupun dia menolak. Bukan dia tidak mahu, tetapi dia sudah tidak ada karya baharu. Dia sudah lama tidak menulis hakikatnya!

Dia jadi kelu. Dalam kelas EI pun dia jadi bisu. Bukanlah bermakna dia mulut murai dalam kelas EI itu sebelum ini – dia antara pelajar yang akan jadi ‘tikus’ apabila Mr. K (gelaran mereka sekelas untuk Encik Kamarudin daripada Jabatan Ilmu Pendidikan) mulai menyoal pelajar-pelajar – tetapi kelas yang itu dia tidak terasa hendak cakap apa-apa pun. Intelligence (IQ), personality and emotional intelligence (EQ) are distinct qualities we all possess. Together they determine how we think and act. It is impossible to predict one based upon another. People may be intelligent but not emotionally intelligent, and people of all types of personalities can be high in IQ and/or EQ. Of the three, emotional intelligence is the only quality that is flexible and able to change. Bosan, tetapi dia sedang belajar perlahan-lahan menyukai EI.




Dewan kuliah Al-Farabi yang tersangat sejuk itu menghantar ingatan dia kepada selimut corak garis-garis kuning dan merah jambu, bantal IPG yang keras dan bantal ‘I Love You Forever’ yang lembut dan gebu hadiah kak cik untuk hari lahirnya yang ke 17. Seronoknya! Selalu waktu-waktu sudah petang begini, semester juga sudah mahu berakhir minggu hadapan, kelas sudah tidak ada lagi. Tetapi Mr. K lain macamlah pula semangat beliau hari ini. Ikraam sampai sudah mengulang-ulang silap menyebut ‘across’. Mengantuk agaknya. Hujan cuma renyai di luar tetapi barangkali cuaca musim tengkujuh yang sudah menjelma dan pendingin hawa yang bekerja keras menyebabkan semua orang seakan beku. Dia pula sengaja tinggalkan sweater nipis hitam kegemarannya di bilik pagi tadi. Sejuknya.




What’s the time now?” Soal Mr. K. Soalan lazim.

3.40,” jawab beberapa orang. Joseph yang yang biasa menjaga masa tidak hadir.

Okay. What are the transformations that has take place after you undergo this Emotion Intelligence program, Al-Kas…, Al-Samihah?” Soal Mr. K lagi. Satu kelas tersengih mendengar Mr. K hamper tersilap memanggil ‘Al-Kasmahani’ (di mana nama Kasmahani tidak mempunyai ‘Al’ di hadapan – itu nama Al-Samihah Amni)

Akhirnya kelas berakhir dan dia sudah boleh lepas bebas dari dewan yang membuatkan darah berlari ke jantung dan membiarkan jari-jemari kesejukan. Rupa-rupanya di luar juga, hujan mulai melebatkan dan suasana tidaklah terlalu lebih panas daripada situasi beku di dalam dewan tadi.




It’s raining,” ujarnya. Yin mengangguk di sebelah. Najiah sekadar sunyi.

“Awak nak pergi kafe tak, Yin?” Tanya Najiah. Dia senyap, turut ingin mendengar jawapan Yin. Amoi Penang itu tiba-tiba sibuk dengan Sony Ericsonnya.

“Tak naklah. Malas. Nak masuk bilik aje,” katanya ala-ala manja. Walhal Yin memang lenggok cakapnya begitu, namun dia tetap merasakan Yin bercakap seperti kemanja-manjaan.

Untuk ke Blok A, mereka harus melalui Blok C dan Blok B dahulu. Dengan itu, mereka tidaklah basah ditimpa hujan yang makin galak menyiram bumi Besut. Semacam menari-nari dan penuh suka sekali titisan-titisan hujan turun petang itu. Dia memang suka subjek English Studies (Kajian Bahasa Inggeris) kerana dia kini mengaplikasi personafikasi – memberi sifat manusia kepada benda bukan hidup – di mana-mana. Dahulu di Tingkatan Lima pun dia tidak pernah suka perkara-perkara seperti metafora, simile sampai begini.




“Saya nak beli rotilah. Lapar pulak hujan-hujan maçam ni,” katanya tiba-tiba.

“Jadi awak nak pergi ko-op lah ni?” Soal Najiah.

“Ya,” balasnya sepatah. Yin masih tekun, membalas SMS mungkin.

Untuk ke kafe atau ko-op, mereka perlu ambil jalan ke kiri dan bukan terus sampai ke Blok A. Oleh kerana kedua-dua Najiah dan Yin tidak memberi sebarang petunjuk untuk ke kafe atau ko-op, dia beranggapan mereka akan terus pulang ke bilik. Dia tidak kisah pun, dan sibuk mencongak-congak di dalam kepala hendak membeli roti jenis apa. Sudah lama tidak membeli roti. Baik tengok tarikh luput sekali.

Tiba-tiba, Yin turut sama membelok ke kiri walaupun dia masih tekun memandang dan menekan punat-punat telefonnya. Dia jadi hairan.

“Saya naik dulu ya?” Seru Najiah.

“Ya,” dia membalas. “Awak nak pergi mana, Yin?” Tanya dia, penuh rasa ingin tahu.

“Tadi awak cakap nak pergi ko-op,” balasnya. Masih taat dengan telefon. Jalan pun tak tengok depan.

Yalah, itu aku. Kau nak pergi mana? Tadi kata nak balik bilik. Hatinya tidak dapat bersabar dengan jawapan yang tidak memuaskan daripada Yin tadi. Separuh jalan ke ko-op, dia bertanya lagi.

“Awak nak pergi mana, Yin?” Dia bertanya lagi, menahan rasa ingin tahu yang membuak-buak.

“Tadi awak cakap nak pergi kafe kan?” Kata Yin. Akhirnya mengangkat muka daripada skrin telefon.

Walaupun masih tidak berpuas hati dengan jawapan yang sama itu, dia memutuskan untuk senyap sahaja dan terus ke ko-op. Bagus juga ada orang teman.

Dia memilih satu roti keju, Twiggies perisa vanila dan biskut Chipsmore pek kecil. Banyaklah pula makan, bisiknya lagi. Ah, lapar. Walaupun pukul 10 tadi sudah makan sepinggan nasi ayam di kafe dengan Najiah. Macam mana nak kurus ni, rungutnya dalam hati. Langsung ke kaunter dan membayar. Perempuan tidak dapat mengasingkan dua buah fikiran dan mengaitkannya antara satu sama lain. Seperti “Mengapa diet saya tidak berhasil?” dan “Saya rasa nak makan coklat sikit lagilah.”, begitu yang dia pernah baca dalam Reader’s Digest.




Lepas Asar petang itu, Kak Syuhada (dia seru Kak Ada sahaja, kerana kakak senior itu adik ipar kak lang) mengajak dia keluar ke Kampung Raja kerana dia sudah minta Kak Syuhada memberitahu bila mahu keluar kerana dia bimbang wang sakunya tidak dapat bertahan sebelum dia pulang ke Kemaman minggu hadapan. Dia ingin ke mesin ATM BSN di pejabat daerah Besut.

“Mesin out of service,” begitu bilang seorang pak cik yang mungkin juga ingin mengeluarkan wang dari ATM. Dia terasa agak kecewa tetapi memutuskan dia boleh menghadapi perkara ini. Tak apalah. Bukan duduk di KL. RM50 insya-Allah boleh bertahan sampai minggu hadapan.

“Semalam dah keluar ke Jertih kenapa tak withdraw terus?” Kata Kak Syuhada sambil terus memandu Viva. Dia jadi senyap. Terasa diri ini menumpang. Walaupun dia pasti sangat-sangat Kak Syuhada tiada sekelumit niat pun mahu menyinggung perasaannya.

“Tak apalah Kak Ada. Tak payah buat keluar duitlah,” katanya perlahan. Tak mahu menyusahkan orang lagi.

“Tak adalah. Lain kali withdraw terus,” kata Kak Syuhada lagi. Dia sudah jadi diam sungguh-sungguh. Terasa mahu terbang ke Kemaman sekarang dan siapkan lesen keretanya. Itulah, dulu penakut nak ambil pré-test, dia mengutuk diri. Lepas langgar tiang parking dua batang, hatinya jadi kecut dan dia tidak pulang-pulang ke tapak latihan memandu kereta itu lagi. Pak Jat yang mengajarnya itu pasti hairan dengan kehilangannya yang tiba-tiba.

Kak Syuhada dan temannya, Kak Anirah bawa dia ke pasar malam Kampung Raja. Dia tidak gembira dan kalau ikutkan dia, dia mahu berlari pulang ke Kampus Sultan Mizan, tetapi dia ikutkan sahaja. Dia tahu dia sedang pura-pura senyum dan pegang payung Kak Anirah (kerana dia lebih tinggi daripada Kak Anirah macam kalau pengapit pun sesuai lebih tinggi daripada pengantin supaya senang nak payungkan) yang merah jambu.

Dia beli yong tau fu sebanyak RM2, keropok keping (keropok selipar, gelar kak cik) RM2 dan secucuk ayam yang harganya RM1. Ini bukan lapar ni, ini sedih. Dia tidak pasti kenapa dia sedih tetapi hujan yang renyai buat Kak Syuhada dan Kak Anirah tidak perasan wajahnya yang tidak ceria. Dia harap begitulah. Dia tidak kuasa hendak senyum-senyum lagi. Sudahlah stokinnya habis basah dek lopak air hujan yang banyak. Dia rasa seperti hendak demam sahaja.

Sampai di bilik, hatinya berdetak lagi. Hai, macam mana nak kurus? Tapi dia pasang juga cerita Doraemon the Movie: Nobita’s New Adventure into the Magic Planet. Tajuk panjang dan ceritanya juga panjang. Sudah berbulan-bulan pun dia tidak habis lagi menonton filem itu. Sampai habis yong tau fun yang sedap itu pun, cerita itu belum habis. Dia tutup kerana sudah Maghrib. Lain kali saja sambung.




Maghrib itu, Mira teman sebiliknya ada jamuan meraikan senior-senior mereka di semester lapan. Yalah, sudah semester terakhir. Tambahan pula mereka rapat dengan senior-senior Maths itu. Haruslah mereka yang junior ini buat sesuatu sebagai tanda penghargaan. Dia bukan budak Maths jadi dia tidak terlibat dengan jamuan bertema hitam putih itu. Retro sekali. Dia tonton sajalah mereka bersiap. Teman-teman sekelas Mira, Syima dan Dayah pun bersiap di bilik mereka. Itu tidak termasuk Along budak PJ yang jamuan mereka juga malam yang sama, sibuk meminjam cermin. Seolah bilik sebelah yang dikongsi dengan Najiah itu tiada cermin pula. Ramai sekali yang memenuhi bilik 302A malam itu.



“Budak PJ tiada warna temakah, Along?” Dia bertanya apabila memandang kurung ungu manggis yang disarung Along.

“Takde. Budak PJ bebas,” balas Along sambil bersungguh membetulkan pin tudung di cermin Mira.

Selepas melambai Mira, Syima, Dayah dan Sena (yang sungguh bergaya dengan kemeja jalur hitam-putih, tie dan tudung hitam), dia terasa demam sungguh-sungguh akan menyerang. Dia tarik selimut. Mujur mereka telah dapat extend tarikh untuk hantar tugasan ES sampai Isnin depan. Mdm. Dash (seru mereka untuk Puan Dashima daripada Jabatan Bahasa-bahasa) memang baik. Dia rasa bersyukur, menelan sebiji panadol dan lena sahaja. Mira pulang pun dia tidak sedar.

weekend movie marathon

despite the fact that my isl (independent self-learning) tasks are still having a long way to go, i had a nice weekend movie marathon. it's the last week of the semester and i don't think anybody was in any mood to be stuck in the room and get busy. with work, i mean.




a nice movie, Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen is. i had always think of the Optimus Prime as a handsome robot; old-timer, almost solitude but strong and respected by his 'compatriots'.

okay. if you want to know more about the movie, just Google it. don't count on me. (last time i cut and paste from Wikipedia, i felt like a f fake.) all i can say; it's a nice movie, Megan Fox is a beautiful human and she and Shia Labeouf makes a sweet couple.




i found this movie among tens of other movies in an external (tq kak syikin^^) hard-drive. it has an interesting title and had i decided not to watch, i'd miss one of the hallmark-like movie. and i've always love hallmark-like story. light and although it messes with life's problems, they always made it looks easy to survive through.

anyway, The Accidental Husband was a fun movie. but i was a bit pissed when a sophia had easily let go of her love because some random doctor said the love of her life was not the right one. i mean, no woman in her right mind would do that when their wedding is two weeks away. preposterous. haha^^

and i re-watched two other movies; Twilight and The Handsome Suit. oh yeah, i never reviewed The Handsome Suit. some other time alright?

sucking vampires

okey. honestly, it's like watching twilight and new moon in a new, tortured and distorted way. it's all wrong, but it's one of the best parody i've watched in a while (not that i'm a huge fan of parodies).





go watch. it's a great laugh.
and no, vampires don't suck. they bite. (and let's face it, pattinson is one great human specimen^^ - physically)

angin merah, bukan marah

.
.
.
kenapa tajuk yang sentapp macam tu?

haha. sekadar mengemaskini cerita-cerita angin merah jambu, merah darah, merah delima dan merah buah naga tempoh hari.



haruslah aku beritahu semula kepada kamu apa yang terjadi selepas kisah aku 'tidak ada strategi untuk menang' itu aku telah -dengan rajinnya- pos ke ruangan ini. atau kalau kamu tak baca pun aku tak kisah sangat. sebab ruangan ini kan untuk aku mengepos memori? (atau bekukannya, macam apa yang aku tulis dengan tulisan warna biru itu)

baiklah, baiklah. kisah itu sudah tamat tarikh luput ya? lupakan sajalah impian untuk tahu nama dia suatu hari nanti sebab aku sudah besar panjang dan sudah layak disaman kalau aku menulis tentang sesuatu yang hak orang lain tanpa kebenaran pemiliknya (nama pun hak milik juga kan? sampai di 'sana' pun kita akan diseru dengan nama ini).

jadi sampai situ sahaja kisahnya. bosan saja kisah aku ini. tidak ada pengakhiran yang lebih menarikkah? yang lebih mengujakan seumpama kisah Cinderella & Prince Charming?

namanya pun sebuah cerita. naratif penuh rasa dari seorang pencerita.

come one come all, to this very happy affair

and no, the above is not an invitation. it is merely a copy-and-edit from a line of an MCR song. i was a big fan once (and i mean, die-hard-fan. seriously).

but wait, you should have catch me there - a not-an-invitation to what? haha. that, i can't really say. after all, he whose event is going to take place admitted to me once he always checks up on my blog once in a while. just for fun and have a glance at my recent life, he said.

let's leave it at two words - an engagement. there.



fellow 1st sem-ers (june '10 intake) are facing examination whereas we teslians are off the hook - until the 3rd sem that is. then, we are the dead ones. 3 semesters in one exam - i think we have a truly frightening experience up front. but until then, sit back, support fellow 1st sem-ers and enjoy an Ella song on Era.fm. life is cold (monsoon season is hitting east coast).



alright, alright. it's november already. sem 1 is coming to an inevitable end, can you believe that? haha.

we usually go to kl during this time of the year, make a mess in a hotel room and squeeze every bit of strength in our legs to fulfill the true meaning of the wise saying - shop till you drop!



come to think of it, is that wise?

anyway.

this year, i was thinking about something different. a month and a half in pulau pinang had made me realize that penang is a cool place to go and shop - or visit. whicever comes first.



the taste of 'bakso' from a stall inside of seberang prai city mall still lingers on my taste buds (figuratively speaking).

will they succumb to my request? it's not that i don't see the glass as half full - it's i'm afraid they don't.

i just hope kl is on this year. i need a vacation. not badly, but yes i need one. who doesn't? especially when you don't face an exam that year (this is where you give a huge mocking laugh^^).



enough about vacation. it's not that i don't get enough oxygen in besut, it's the lack of carbon dioxide (or more like, the absence of it has made me forget what it's like, although it is good for the asthmatic condition. can't complain).

i stumbled upon (again) a VERY good article on facebook (or rather, a note) but i won't share it on my wall because, well, because it's... well...

check it out yourself, will you? follow--> http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=166863376675845&id=100000350714598 (sorry. i tried make it clickable. you know, like when you post a link, and people can just click on the link. it didn't work. maybe i'll try again some other time)

tale as old as time~

how words should define it?















it's beautiful. really.















it's an old movie but i haven't got the chance nor the urge to watch it. unlike snow white, cinderella and the likes, they were so easy to find and therefore plenty of opportunities for me to catch up with them, but the case was different with this tale as old as time.


Beauty and the Beast (French: La Belle et la Bête) is a traditional fairy tale. The first published version of the fairy tale was a rendition by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, published in La jeune américaine, et les contes marins in 1740. The best-known written version was an abridgement of her work published in 1756 by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont, in Magasin des enfants, ou dialogues entre une sage gouvernante et plusieurs de ses élèves; an English translation appeared in 1757.


In 1991, Walt Disney Feature Animation produced a musical animated film entitled Beauty and the Beast, directed by Kirk Wise & Gary Trousdale, with a screenplay by Linda Woolverton, and songs by Alan Menken & Howard Ashman. Like the 1946 version, the Disney version also names Beauty "Belle" and gives her a handsome suitor (here named Gaston) who eventually plots to kill the Beast. Other aspects of the story are changed or added as well: In the Disney version, Belle's father (here called Maurice) is an inventor, not a merchant, and Belle is his only daughter. Belle is befriended by the Beast's servants, who have been transformed into household objects. There is also an element of Bluebeard in it, in the sense that she is told, early on in the Beast's castle, not to go in a certain chamber, but disobeys him out of curiosity. Beauty and the Beast won Academy Awards for Best Song and Best Original Score, in addition to becoming the first animated film to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Picture. It was also one of only two animated films included in AFI's 100 Years... 100 Passions list, which announced the 100 greatest love stories of all time, and is now considered one of the Walt Disney Company's classic animated films.


the urge didn't come (and i call myself an avid cartoon fan) up until mr. j (my language development lect.) put on the video of Beauty and the Beast theme song. then it occured, YOUTUBE! (hahaha...technology-literate konon:P)


and then i started watching. 9 parts altogether (10mins each). truth to be told, i watched it once when i was 4 i think. but i watched it halfway and the story was so complicated for my young, undisturbed mind (then-lah).


i never thought the story was so beautiful. i especially love all of the talking furnitures and clock and candles! haha. disney doesn't make it as cute as this anymore.


go enjoy. especially if you haven't.

language development 1 class

we were learning how to write a memo. don't ask me why a teacher needs to know that. but i'm a hell of a memo-writer now. haha.


a memo : a document typically used for communication within a company. memos can be as formal as a business letter and used to present a report.


so, at the top we just write the word MEMORANDUM. i had a typo once and i wrote MEMORANSUM instead.


RANSUM = RANSOM


so i figured, next time you're thinking about kidnapping a child,



and you don't want to put a cloth on your mouth when speaking through the phone (we are using a very old-school technique to ask for ransom money), you can simply send a MEMO-RANSOM.


okay, that's enough 'mengarut' for one day.

"Lelaki yang baik untuk perempuan yang baik."

-please stop your reading here unless you want to feel like throwing up for the next five minutes. or more. or less. i don't know.-
















sudah berhari-hari saya ditiup angin manis merah jambu bertatah rasa penuh suka dari Laut China Selatan (memanglah kampus saya ini letaknya tak jauh dari Pantai Bukit Keluang, tetapi saya sedang bermetafora. sebab itu saya galakkan anda berhenti membaca sekarang. saya baru terkena demam Noor Suraya-lagi).

kalau betul-betul hendak berkira, hari ini sudah hari kelapan. masih juga tidak kebah-kebah rasa terawang-awang ini. bak kata zul di Penang; "Sudah parah awak ni."

sampai semalam, saya merasakan sayalah calon yang paling sesuai dengan dia (kalaulah dia sedang mencari calon) dan dengan penuh perasan sekali berkali-kali menyatakan dalam diri saya, tiada sesiapa yang lain lebih sesuai!

namun Allah itu Yang Maha Merancang. sebagai manusia hina yang cacatnya bertambun-tambun (bukan fizikal, alhamdulillah setakat ini bukan. kita sedang bercakap secara batiniah ya?), dalam perjalanan pulang dari Kota Bharu semalam, saya terfikir, termalu dan rendah diri sekaligus. mujurnya saya belum terbawa-bawa dengan rasa sekuman yang Allah dah campakkan dalam hati saya ini.

betullah itu ujian. Allah tidak menguji hamba-hambaNya lebih daripada yang mereka mampu (padahal baru lagi bertemu ayat itu - husna nilah!).

bak kata kak lang, "Baik Allah uji kita dengan kesusahan. Kalau dengan kesenangan, biasanya kita akan leka!"

terima kasih kak lang. kadang-kadang pesan-pesanmu tidak hadir sewaktu aku betul-betul patut ulang baca dengan penuh penghayatan. (pesan-pesannya sekarang selalu melalui SMS. ialah, sudah belajar jauh kan sekarang? - walaupun Besut itu masih daerah negeri Terengganu)

perasaan suka, seronok dan terpesona kepada dia itu ujian. yalah, waktu suka, seronok dan terpesona itu mudahnya mata menyorot langkah-langkahnya; pandang sahaja dia di mana-mana, dewankah, kelaskah. tanpa malu-malu lagi. sedangkan ada zina ya di situ husna - zina mata namanya!

lalu husna kalah dengan ujian Allah padanya. sudah lebih seminggu juga dia kalah. masih belum ada strategi untuk menang lagi.

.
.
.

hati suka marah saya begitu. tapi dia juga yang tak jemu-jemu memaksa mata untuk terus-terusan melihat dan memandang. kalau boleh merenung pun dia nak! (tapi kata 'merenung' itu kan lebih sesuai kalau saya dapat melihat dengan jelas. saya rabun tetapinya. nikmat yang Allah sudah tarik itu kadang-kadang memang padan dengan muka saya ini.)














.
.
.

sudah Asar-lah husna. kata tadi nak berubah, nak jadi yang lebih baik? sebab perempuan yang baik untuk lelaki yang baiklah, betul? (ya, tetap masih ada hati pada dia. kan sudah dibilang tadi - belum ada strategi untuk menang.)

kelantan + kl = hilarious^^

if you go to kelantan, you might find their dialect is not something that you can easily grab - especially if you have never heard anyone talk in the dialect before.

i am a true terengganu-er. but, it was not until recent years when my sister started to speak in kelantanese dialect at home so that i would have an exposure on our neigbour's slang. thus, my coming to besut to study last june was not as dreadful as my short detour to pulau pinang for matriculation.

flashback:
"lima kupang dik," - shopkeeper.
"lima kupang tu berapa ringgit kak?" - me

coming to besut (which is in terengganu but speaks like in kelantan) was okay for me. i know a few words and i can pretend to speak like a local. (but of course they can always tell. like how i can always tell if somebody is faking a terengganu slang - usually with an overly-stressed 'G').

so, when i stumbled upon this note a true kelantanese wrote on fb, i couldn't help but laughing until 'keras perut' (literally; hard stomach).

my favourite comment:
perkakas mana lah buat ayat lawak nie..haha....larak dia tulis semua..

Doa Perpisahan

"Cinta itu macam rumah. Tak perlu cantik, tak perlu mewah. Yang penting, kita bahagia di dalamnya!"

(this quote is from a Malay movie which i could no longer remember what the title was.)













"jie. ore kato, tok napok ore, napok kelah jadi doh!"















this is the ending-song of our Prospau program yesterday. somehow it means more to me than just an ending-song.

Pertemuan Kita Di Suatu Hari
Menitiskan Ukhwah Yang Sejati
Bersyukurku Ke Hadrat Ilahi Di Atas Jalinan Yang Suci

Namun Kini Perpisahan Yang Terjadi
Dugaan Yang Menimpa Diri
Bersabarlah Di Atas Suratan
Ku Tetap Pergi Jua

Kan Ku Utuskan Salam Ingatanku
Dalam Doa Kudusku Sepanjang Waktu
Ya Allah Bantulah Hamba Mu

Mencari Hidayah Daripada Mu
Dalam Mendidikkan Kesabaranku
Ya Allah Tabahkan Hati Hamba Mu
Di Atas Perpisahan Ini

"Teman Betapa Pilunya Hati Menghadapi Perpisahan Ini.
Pahit Manis Perjuangan Telah Kita Rasa Bersama. Semoga
Allah Meredhai Persahabatan Dan Perpisahan Ini. Teruskan
Perjuangan"

Kan Ku Utuskan Salam Ingatanku
Dalam Doa Kudusku Sepanjang Waktu
Ya Allah Bantulah HambaMu

Senyuman Yang Tersirat Di Bibirmu
Menjadi Ingatan Setiap Waktu
Tanda Kemesraan Bersimpul Padu
Kenangku Di Dalam Doamu

Semoga Tuhan Berkatimu

the fifth and final 'sidang'

motion : Iklan Makanan Ringan Untuk Kanak-kanak Wajib Diharamkan

"analogi saya, jika kita mengamalkan sehari sekilo gula, KERAT kaki ya yang dipertua." - Prime Minister. (note: focus on the bolded 'kerat')

"saya tak tau kenapa makan gula kena kerat kaki. kan kencing manis, patutnya kerat benda lain..??" - Yang Dipertua.








we lost. to win on opposing the motion is almost impossible.

they'll hold the final this coming wednesday. going or not is still in consideration.

mood: excited!

i intended to be fully sincere when i decided to be one of the usher for the debate competition.

turns out my old can't-be-in-a-new-group-of-people-without-falling-for-a-man disease struck again.

i know i should stop doing that.

ac's quote, "you fall all the time."

to which i replied, "i fall in and fall out easily. you should try it sometimes."


.
.


i know i should stop doing that. may Allah have mercy on me..T.T













however, quoting ar-long; "kito mari sini, (walaupun patutnyo satu tujue jah), ado duo tujue. nok buat degree so, so lagi nok cari...".

(seriously, it ends like that)

so, people.
he's cute.
smiles all the time.
in his final year.
doing maths [which is good, i don't want my kids to hate maths like i do - so if my better-half likes maths, chances are my kids (at least, some. i hope - wah, bunyi dia da macam anak lima!!! ^^) will like maths as well].
speaks Malay like he's Faisal Tehrani (well, that is exaggerating).

did i mention that he's cute?

haha.

but maybe it's kind of like a 'balasan' for me because i was laughing at my bro's thinning hair (i'm still laughing 'till today but in full support of his treatment - may it work bro;)) and suddenly, i fall for a guy with the same head condition.





pretty serious fall now, won't you say so?


anyway....

i'd say falling is not a bad thing.

but if i'm serious, now i'd have to be like jaja looking for her ustaz din. and i don't have that kind of boldness. i'm just me. nothing like jaja and her bravery.

inter-unit debate, head of Bahasa Melayu department cup

^^....

the debate competition sounded important, isn't it?

to be honest (i can't be as honest as i used to be - growing up, they say), i was thinking between ESC or become one of the usher for the debate competition.

...

ESC will always be there. still have a long way to go (so i thought). so, debate it is.

and it's fun.

i got to play with a triangle (as the bell for the competition) which is new. (accidentally rang it once too).

"sape nak tulis?" (referring to usher's duty to write the motion, the government and the opposition on the white board) - me

"..." (went to the whiteboard quietly and started writing) - jai

"..." (smiling in the heart because asking meant not wanting to do it) - me



oh well. that was 'sidang 1'. 4 'sidang's left. 1PPISMP TeSL 1, ganbatte kudasai yo, anata-tachi!

honto ni arigato.

we had a marvelous time at Gua Musang the other day. although i have to say i was reluctant to come at first. i already had a plan in mind. i was planning to go home for our annual open house. (well, you can't exactly say it's annual because if we have a sponsor then it's on, if not, what can i say?) this year's sponsor was abg de.

anyhow.

that didn't work. the HEP suddenly wanted to organise a Bina Jati Diri camp at Etnobotani Garden Gua Musang for three days, from 30th sept - 2nd oct which was unfortunate because the open house was on 2nd oct. but, being an obedient teacher-to-be, i called home and told my mother i wouldn't make it. sadly. after days of persuading her to let me come home. (kemaman and besut is not that close in distance, alright? i have to board a bus for at least a 4-hour journey).

anyway.

we went to Gua Musang and guess what? the place was terrific! the cave, the hill, the misty-all-the-time environment, were just great. i had a feeling that the place wasn't going to be scaring me, more like i'll be scaring myself - very the 'penakut'.

we were divided into groups. (oh ya, thanks to abg di for awesome coaster driving - especially up and down the hills of Etnobotani Garden). in my group we had firdaus (abe - he's a year older), safuan (science), ji han (tesl 1), yuhan (pj), pei shan (pj), jie (tesl 2), siti (maths) and another husna (also maths). eventhough it seems like our group was a thoroughly mix-up group, we had so much fun together and how we bonded was amazing.

i am asthmatic. i think you guys know that. well, climbing a hill isn't exactly an evening walk circling the campus. much tougher and i had a feeling was much longer. so naturally, when we almost (literally, a few more steps) reach the peak of the hill, i had an attack. of course i had my medication with me but salbutamol will make you shake (pretty badly if you are still doing vigorous exercises) and i cannot have that since we still had a long way going down the hill and exploring the cave. so when jie asked about my medication, i said no.

abe (we don't call him 'abe'. it was just to tease him) was nice. he was almost like the most gentleman guy i've ever had an encounter with in my life. of course, giving you a seat in a crowded lrt or letting you go first on a long line in front of the counter in a bank are also considered as gentleman, but his type of gentleman-ness is only found in a movie. or korean drama. perhaps. i don't really watch korean drama. jie does. maybe i should ask her. anyway.

haha. or maybe, he is really a nice person. someone said to me that being the first born of a family will make one a more sensitive and caring person. i don't know how much of that statement hold true. but abe offered to carry my bag and he did that along the way from the peak of the hill (when i started to show asthma symptoms) until we got out of the cave (when i don't even struggle for breaths anymore). he was nice. i felt extremely jealous towards the girl who holds his heart^^

oh well. there it is. an account from our trip to Gua Musang. what else is there? oh, the cave was fantastic. i should like outdoor activities from now on. except that if i have to choose between cave exploring and window shopping, i'd choose kl any day.

if it's love, then let me go

when you love someone, it's only plain obvious that you'd want to be with him/her forever.

but is that all love could ever meant? to be together forever?

.
.
.
.
.

but separation is inevitable. for every meeting there will an end. that's just the way nature works.
but we encounter wonderful relationships throughout our lives. should the separation ends the ties we've tried very hard to knot?

.
.
.
.

sometimes, although it's not something we'd choose to entertain, the idea is the best for all.
with every tear we shed, we grow stronger.

.
.
.


knowing Toy Story, Toy Story 2 and the latest Toy Story 3, it seems as though i was watching Andy grew. and i actually grew together.








but love also means letting go. because, like Andy did, we let go because we love. if we are no longer capable of loving, or providing the best environment for our loved ones, then why keep holding on? it's not about being pessimistic, it's about love. and being able to let go.






i actually cried (silly reason to cry, i know) at the end of the movie. the friendship and Andy's love was inescapable. because of that, he's letting someone else starting their own toy story. so long.
