Happy 21st Birthday Hakimi!

Assalamualaikum and Greetings
To the beautiful ladies and handsome gentlemen of Land of Oz, Narnia, Wonderland and Earth.

Today, 26th of May of 2013 marks the 21st birthday of a good friend of mine.

A handsome young man from Kedah. Studying Manufacturing Engineering at IIUM Gombak. A guitarist. What else? Just give him a call and you'll find out about him yourself.

We had to make it a perfect surprise but it turns out to be that he knew it all along after witnessing a dreadful white flour on my bed when I was out of the room. He was fortunate to know bout it but, you can't escape from hellish mind of 3 crazy friends. Hahaha...

So, we gave him flour to play with because we can't afford play-doh. But he want some food or snack, so we bought him New York Cheese Cake from Secret Recipe personally sponsored by QiQi.

Anyway, pal. I pray for your success in your miserably awesomely life. Our brotherhood is infinite over time. Please, don't calculate infinite over time.

Surprisingly surprised.

One slice of cake is enough. Thanks for the cake, Marzuqi!

 Sorry cake satu slice ja. Tapi aku jugak yang makan banyak. =.=

"They know how crazy you are but still choose to be seen with you in public."

Happy Birthday crazy friend.

The Awkward Moments

Assalamualaikum and greeting fellow beautiful, charming and handsome mates.

How's life? Banyak senang atau banyak susah? Kalau senang, share la sikit. Kalau susah, pi main jauh-jauh. Just kidding : )

Aku nak share something. Pernah tak korang mengalami situasi yang pelik? You can smell the awkwardness in the air as if it kills you but its fun. Mesti pernah la.

1. The Path Not Taken
Kadang-kadang kalau jalan, kita tak nampak pun orang kat depan. Contoh kalau korang layan phone atau jalan berpenjuru or any path it is. Korang jalan and then you bump into someone. Maybe tak langgar. But it's awkward, as you try to walk, he/she is trying to walk on the same path you're choosing. You move to the left, and that person move to the left too. You move to the right, that person move to the right. Maximum loops are 2 or 3. Bila dah tension, either one of you will say, "You go right, I go to the left". Either by words or simple signs.

2. Say My Name
Anyone with spec and you rarely use your spec? Or maybe you don't use spec in public? Or are you super-friendly?
Then I guess you're one of these people. Maybe korang tengah duduk somewhere, well I don't know, maybe at the cafe. Then there's one particular person yang korang kenal, maybe. Tanpa rasa segan silu, korang panggil and jerit nama.

Hoi Amir!!!!(lakonan semata-mata)

It turns out to be that person is not who you think he/she is. Yang paling pelik kalau orang tu datang, and you said, "Eh, salah orang".
I guess someone need to cover their face now. Confirm malu kan?

3. Who are you?
Mungkin pada zaman muda-mudi atau zaman lampau dulu, korang ni famous and friendly. Zaman kegemilangan bila korang ade battalion sendiri. Seluruh orang Kampung Pisang kenal. Tapi sejak merantau ke tempat orang, korang semakin membesar. Muka pun macam mak/bapak orang.
Bila balik kampung, korang terjumpa someone korang kenal. Tapi lupa nama. In your mind, "Aku kenal, tapi sapa nama budak ni?". Borak panjang sampai lewat malam and still takleh nak ingat nama dia. Lastly, idea datang.

Encik Amir : Eh, nak balik dulu ade hal. Nanti meet up lagi k. Aku rasa aku xdak number phone kau la.
Datuk J : Aku pun xdak.
Encik Amir : *Sepantas kilat mengeluarkan handphone* Ape number hp kau?
Datuk J : 010 bla bla bla
Encik Amir : Ape tadi? Eh, kau save sendiri la number hp kau kat handphone aku ni. Nanti aku miss call number kau. (alasan)
Datuk J : Okay. *save number dalam hp Amir*
Encik Amir : Alright.
Datuk J : Alright nanti jumpa lagi.
Encik Amir : No probs. Roger roger la. Assalam. 

Datuk J beredar dari stage.. 

Encik Amir : Oh, Joyah rupenye name dia ni. Aku ingatkan Jay-Z.

Pandai kan? Suroh orang tu save number dia sendiri dalam handphone korang. And then you got his/her name. Walla! Splendid!

4. Crap. Wrong Timing.
Situasi ini berlaku bila korang ada geng yang gila-gila. Padahal benda yang xdak benda, jadi awkward. =.=

Lady : Ehmm... Excuse me. I believe you have my mechanical pencil. Remember last time. You borrowed mine.
Guy : Oh right. Sorry I didn't realized that I still have it. Wait for a sec. *searching searching* 

Suddenly le friends screw up the moment. 

Friend 1 : Perghhhh. Dah pandai kau eh.
Friend 2 : Awek baru ke?
Friend 3 : Amboi.. Kemain lagi kau. Gadis melayu comel terakhir.
Friend 4 : You have my mechanical pencil. Pick up line power.

Lady : err.. Takpe la. Nanti awak bagi lain kali je k.  

The heck was that?

I believe you'll make this kind of reaction. And goodbye Lady. Your last meeting with her will be the day when you give her back the mechanical pencil. Muahaha. 

Kebanyakan awkward moments aku either no.1 or no.2. Aku pakai spec and I don't use it in public. 

And ada banyak lagi awkward moments. I believe some of you have your own stories. Bila fikir balik, korang ketawa sendiri. Another awkward moment. Haha

Anyway, tell me yours. Awkwardness in the air.

Cita-Cita Lampau

Assalamualaikum abang-abang hensem dan akak-akak cantik serta adik-adik comel sekalian alam. Satu alam ja, xdak dua alam.

Ni nak cakap pasal cita-cita, memang satu hari tak habis. Seronok! Nak jadi ni, nak jadi tu, nak jadi apa-apa la. Kalau tak caya, ce korang list down dari kecik dulu sampai sekarang. At least ade 5 la.

First time dulu,cita-cita aku nak jadi doktor. Ayah aku slalu la dok bising-bising lenguh badan sana sini. Biasa la orang aktif badminton. Aku pon urut la bahu dia. Pastu dia cakap jadilah doktor. Senang nak dapat ubat. Aku pon terus set nak jadi doktor. Before tu, nak jadi polis tapi aku faham saiz badan aku camna. Gempal gedempol dulu. So, taknak terus.

Itu zaman lama. Bila masuk zaman sekolah rendah, entah brapa kali aku tukar 'cita-cita'. Ni semua gara-gara buku kamus bergambar untuk kanak-kanak ribena.

Lebih kurang camni la. Tapi kamus lain. Zaman 1999.

Dah masuk sekolah menengah, disebabkan penekanan terhadap bidang sains, aku jadi tak keruan, nak jadi apa nanti. Kononnya bila masuk zaman remaja, kena ada cita-cita, ada mindset, ada segala bagai benda yang diperlukan untuk hidup supaya menjadi modal insan yang berkaliber dan mempunyai masa depan yang cerah. Katenye la...

Sampai tingkatan 3, tak pernah terdetik pun dalam hati nak jadi apa bila dah besar nanti. Lepas PMR, terus masuk science stream. Modern maths becomes much easier and entah mengapa dan bagaimana, aku set akauntan sebagai cita-cita aku. Kami yang ramai-ramai suka math memang bercadang nak jadi akauntan. Ahhh ini semua dusta...

And then come another subjects arrived. Just like Kinder Bueno during study time. Add Maths and Physics. Seriously, aku sangat suka dua subjek ni. Yang menjadikan inspirasi berterusan, cikgu add maths aku ni bekas engineer. Aura engineer kan. Pada masa yang sama dalam rumah, borak-borak dengan ayah aku, out of the sudden, he said, jadi la engineer. I was like, "Why all of the sudden?" Tapi, aku terima dgn hati terbuka.

Agaknya mungkin takdir, memang aku terus set cita-cita nak jadi engineer. Masa tu aku nak jadi civil engineer. Sarawak banyak construction sites. High demand la. Bila aku isi UPU, aku isi bidang engineering ja. Guess what? UIA no.6 antara 8 pilihan and aku dapat. Orang kata rezeki. Ok fine. Aku masuk la asasi kejuruteraan dan sains komputer. Studied foundation for about 1 and a half year and then it turns out to be that UIA tak offer pun civil engineering. Agak kecewa. Masa tu rasa nak apply degree ke UNIMAS. Tapi xpa la. Bukan rezeki. Rezeki ada di mana-mana. That's what they said.

Aku dapat Mechatronics Engineering dalam UIA. Bayangkan betapa jauhnya civil and mechatronics tu. Pembinaan dan Mekatronik(Mechanical & Electronics) memang jauh. Tapi aku memang suka jugak benda mekatronik ni. Tgh hangat Iron Man. Kononnya masuk mekatronik ni, boleh buat suit sendiri. Angan-angan membara! Tapi kalau korang nak tau, aku ni indecisive dalam memilih kerjaya. Contoh la, majoring course. Kawan-kawan aku tau la. Aku pernah nak tukar course ke BENL, TESL, Law and also Econs. Melampau kan?

So, itu la cita-cita aku. Nak jadi engineer. Tapi study engineering ni aku boleh ibaratkan seperti mematahkan tulang-tulang kecil and then di panggang tanpa isi. Agak melampaukan. Haha... Ada satu meme bout engineering yang aku suka.

Tapi kan, aku suka tengok Naruto. Mungkin aku boleh jadi ninja nanti. Ada course ninja ka?

Anyway, aku berhasrat nak jadi lecturer or a teacher, selepas 10 tahun sebagai engineer. Bila faham ilmu ni, and you do an output(teaching), ilmu tu akan jadi lagi kuat and the best thing is, it becomes a continuous merit to you.

Tanggal 16 Mei ni jugak, nak ucapkan Selamat Hari Guru kepada semua guru-guru yang berwibawa. Sesungguhnya, kerjaya seorang guru amat susah dan mereka juga antara golongan yang membentuk generasi baru. Terima Kasih Cikgu! Jasamu dikenang!

Night Headline

Assalamualaikum people of the 6371 kilometers radius of planet Earth..

Malam ni malam yang indah. Well, actually aku nak tidur awal. But I can't. Biological sleep-time dah rosak. Anyway, ada bnyak benda yang ingin aku bincangkan. Just some thoughts. Kalau kita ada persefahaman, tahniah. Kalau xdak, mohon suarakan.

1. PRU
Setinggi-tinggi tahniah dan takziah kepada pihak yang telah meraih kemenangan dalam PRU ke-13 pada 5 Mei 2013 yang lepas. Congrats. So, now work it out government! Banyak benda yang telah dimasukkan dalam manifesto, boleh tgok picture kat bawah. Well, I'm only interested in lebuh raya PAN-BORNEO.

Well hey, jangan lupa tepati janji anda. Itu untuk rakyat. Bukan untuk aku. Ingin aku petik satu kata-kata dari facebook.

Kalau betul, kita sokong.
Kalau salah, kita tegur.
Kalau degil, kita ubah!

Ingat ya, perjuangan belum habis. PRU14 nanti, Bangkit Anak Muda!

2. Racism
The hot topic for this week. Staring the Chinese Malaysian as the 'People Voices', Utusan Malaysia as the main 'Antagonist', and remaining Malaysian as the 'Prosecutor'.

Photo credits to wanista.com

From the picture above, Utusan Malaysia started a hate fire headline filled with racist propaganda, mentioning the Chinese for being ungrateful. Berikutan dengan gaya tulisan daripada Utusan Malaysia dan juga Kosmo!, seolah-olah menyalahkan kaum tempatan cina di Malaysia yang tidak mengundi Barisan Nasional pada PRU13. Ini kerana DAP bnyak memenangi kerusi di sesetengah kawasan, terutamanya Penang.

Apakah gerangan pihak penulis menulis tulisan yang bertuliskan isi penting berbaur perkauman? You may claim that you're not being racist, but obviously you are. Is it necessary to make a fuss over this? Seriously these newspapers need some refreshment in their department. Sangat menyedihkan bila konsep yang diamalkan iaitu 1 Malaysia, dirosakkan oleh orang sendiri. Kata mahu hidup bersama, tapi statement macam nak makan orang. Bersifat talam dua muka? Talk to the hand. Tangan aku ada dua.

3. Government Service Tax(GST)
Another congratulation to all voters, and non-voters as well. Believe me, I do care bout taxes in Malaysia. Tak tau la nak cakap apa, sebab kurang baca bahagian taxes ni.
Cuma ada satu persoalan. 5 tahun lagi, berapa bnyak tax baru yang akan diperkenalkan?

4. Hiasan Jalanan
Tamatnya PRU13 bermaksud segala jenis advertisement haruslah di kemas balik. Tak kisah la dari parti mana pun, kemas cepat sikit. Kalau boleh kumpulkan. Mana yang boleh guna balik, simpan dan bersihkan. Banyak gila pembaziran dalam PRU. Gantung sana sini dan sangat memeranjatkan bagi sesetengah pihak, sampai ke Youtube pon ada advertisement. Ni memang bermati-matian nak advertising. Aku bercakap ni atas idea yang sama, diutarakan oleh Dr.Zaharuddin dalam Facebook beliau. He said it, sangat membazir.

5. IIUM Semester 2 2012/2013 Final Examination
At last, xdak kaitan dengan politik. Lega la kan. At least 2 minggu lagi nak Final Exam. Mohon sifat malas lari dari aku. Nyah kau langit ke tujuh.

That's all from me folks. Til we meet again in another unfortunate events.

Tribute to Hafiy

Assalam yo peace brothers and sisters

Today, we are having a bad reception, leading us to a sentimental emotion, back in the days when we were babies, cried like babies...

Here I am, emotionally typing each words in my mind, thinking of how should I convey my sad feeling into words and actually, I can't. Deep in my heart, I want to mourn like bitches. Sorry for that word. It's in the dictionary by the way.

Sorang kawan aku, Hafiy, nak pindah universiti. Most of us, his friends are sad. Apatah lagi aku... Kenal tak sampai beberapa puluh tahun pon, tapi 2 hingga 3 tahun dah cukup untuk jadikan kami rakan seperjuangan. Ayat kemain... But I'm serious. We are like men and games, women and shops, kids and dolls, and any similar examples that can think of.

Kenal masa kat CFS IIUM dulu. Thanks to the exemption of English Placement Test, I met him, together with few of 'Bunch of Lamezzzzz'. He's a Kelantanese. A very fluffy boy. Weird and funny. A comedic person. Expression yang gila-gila. You can't catch your breath kalau dia buat lawak.

But it's okay. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY BEST FRIEND! Kalau ade pape, bagitau la. Jauh mana pun akan ku redah, tapi sediakan tiket flight kami dulu! Hahahaha...

We will miss you bro!

Arif Izzat, Hafiy(flower guy), Iqbal, Kerey, Izzul, QiQi, Azriq, Kimi, and Me.

and by the way. I made a video for you. If you miss us, tengok video ni tau. :D
