the house got "horns"

today, when i've arrived home from work, i've noticed that there is something different in front of the house at the porch........

the porch has wooden "horns" attached to it and that it is not only just one, but then quite a few of it too........then i've realised that the horns are for the pillar to support the extended roof/cover that is part of the minor renovation of the house that is currently being done by the contractors.......

i also realised that the fence are painted back to its original colors and that some part of the walls are being painted too.........

oh well, let's hope that the renovation went smoothly and that it will complete soon......



my mind is playing with me

hmmmmm, i dunno what happened to me yesterday evening.......... i'm a type of person in which if there's a song in my head i will quickly find the song in my mp3 list and play the song just to overcome the humming in my head.........coz i dun mind listening to any songs coz like it or not, i'm ok with anything that is playing on the mp3 list.......

so i was listening to kenny g, the joy of life was on the track.........very instrumentally and also very soothing the rhythm........then out of sudden, this track was playing in my head....

pukul la tabuh,
pukul la tabuh,
pukul rebana,
jeng jeng jeng......


and i was like, eh this is pengantin song, why is it playing out of sudden in my head, so try to over come the humming or the song in my head, i changed track from kenny g to the fray, how to save a life.....was enjoying to the song and dancing and moving my body to the beat of the song.......and the lyrix went like this.........

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came

Selamat, Pengantin baru, jeng jeng jeng,
Selamat, Berbahagia,
Selamat, Ke anak cucu.......


and then the lyrix change to

ala emak kawen kan aku....la la la la...........huh???

wei......... apa ini....... all this pengantin songs are playing in my head.......to make myself happy, i've searched the pengantin songs in my playlist and played it over and over again..........when i told my colleague at the office, that am listening to pengantin songs via my earphone, she was LOL.........

hmmmm, i know la all my fwens are getting hitched, with the invitations that came non-stop, some involvements in helping out my fwens weddings and also people around me are asking me when is my turn to go on the pelamin........maybe it is just that my minds are playing with me to tell me that it is time to get serious and move on with my life........

so i've made up my mind that i've grown up, and it is time for me to be serious bout this and also go with the flow........u will never know when it is time for u to get hitched, the best thing to do is just to go with the flow and enjoy life as u go with it.......

when i came into the office this morning, still playing in my mind that the first thing that i did after settling down in front of my lappie, i straight away play the pengantin songs and now, i'm listening to the usual songs that i listened to...........

ok peeps, stay tune to know wats next.........hehehehehe.......

p/s: better start planning u all, who is gonna sponsor what........hahahahahaha

Kipas-ing myself instead of the pengantin........hahahaha

@ first, we stand at the side, later, we'll sit in the middle........hehehehe

During Jj's wedding

20.08.2008

today, as i logged into the system, i realised that today is a special day for those who were born or celebrating something today.....this is becoz the date today is 20.08.2008...............which kind of cool actually..............it repeats itself in a way...........hehehehe.............
earlier this morning bout 3 in the morning, i was feeling very cold becoz was sleeping with the air cond on.............so decided to switch of the air cond with my head really really feeling heavy and blur, got the remote control, push the power button off, but the aircond is still blowing at me, kept on pressing the button, but then didn't managed to switch off the air cond, hit the back of the remote control and tried to figure out where is the power button in the dark, and only then i realised that the remote control that i was holding was the Astro remote control.........doink........if i kept on pressing the remote, then i think i will kept on pressing the remote, and the astro decoder will play magic, sekejap ada, sekejap tak ada...........hahahahaha...........managed to find the remote control for the aircond and switch off the air cond and hit the sack back only to realised that i was late for work when i woke up bout 635ish in the morning..........sigh.........

yesterday, when i arrived home, i was a bit sleepy and when i looked at the fence at my house, i saw it having chicken pox........and i was like, what happened here? someone came in and practiced shooting at our gates? hmmmmm.............

then i realised that the house was undergoing a minor renovation......... parents wanted to extend the roof a bit so that the cars will get sheltered and also that the fence and walls were painted white again since it has been nearly 2 years since we last painted it.........normally, before this, we will paint the fence and also walls during or just before fasting month in prepare for the raya season..............but somehow, since working, we just dun have time to do it due to our hectic schedules.................oh yeah, plus parents decided to put stack stones or something like that to the walls so no more paint needed in the future...........kudos to mum and dad for thinking that idea..............hehehehehe..............

the roof extension in progress at the back of the house........


our walls were targets of a firing practice session........

the tools used by the contractors.........


later at nite, went to my granduncle's place in melawati since haven't seen him for quite some time.........yeah, we were happy to see him recovering from his surgery like a month and a half ago.........5 of us went to visit him, myself, mum, dad, another granduncle and also grandaunt...........drove jazzy to melawati and it felt kindda heavy the car...........poor jazzy...........hehehehehe.................then i realised that there were 3 heart patients last nite gathering together, 2 of my granduncles and also dad who went for a minor surgery last week.......... after hearing what they went through after the surgery and how much it cost, it kindda made me scared of it...........coz it is no cheap the surgery................sigh, luckily got me self an insurance for the years ahead...........so what is the morale of the story, take insurance while u r still at a young age coz ur monthly premium installment ain't gonna be that much..........chewah, so sound like an insurance agent...........hehehehehe..................

The "I just had my heart surgery done" team.........hehehehe


have a gud day ahead peeps..........

being the best man for da weekend.......

hey peeps,

hope u had a great weekend..........well i know i did..............great weekend, hectic and also bit tiring.........but it is all worth it...........for 2 days straight i became the pengapit a.k.a the best man for my best fwen's wedding.......... it was very enjoyable and also it was fun i must say.......
on saturday, i woke up early to visit dad who is still in the hospital.......oh yeah, dad has discharged from the hospital on the same day too.........cheers dad.......... so ask dad how's it goin and is the pain still there and so on.............and ask dad whether i could use his car to go for mahat's wedding reception in sepang which is so near KLIA.........he approved it since the car hasn't moved for like nearly 2 weeks............. but there's a catch to it...........he said, if u wanna use the car make sure that i give it a dry cleaning (wipe the car) and also just fill up the tank on what i've used..........deal i said...........hehehehehe...........

so went back to the house, and moved the car from the porch and also wiped it cleaned and also got ready for the wedding........... i had to wear a pink colored baju melayu which i think the color was nice, it is very suttled and also very soft the tone........... went to fetch sweetie at her place and straight away headed to the KLIA toll coz planned to meet Mahat (Mahathir) there.........when i was about to arrived there, mahat called me and inform that he is there already...........

mahat got ready with some stuff at the R&R and we went ahead to the Ayu's house (Mahat's wife)......... and the best part was we arrived when the guests are already there.........so mahathir had to do his make up with the make up artist (mak andam) in an under construction house........hahahaha...........what a romantic way to start ur wedding day........hehehe..........
later bout 30 mins after we've arrived, mahat's family arrived and we waited at an unoccupied house........ and the worse part said that the pengapit had to answer or give a pantun back when we are about entering the house.............i tell u peeps that my facial expression straight away changed and that my hearts was pumping really fast and adrenaline rush came out from no where................daymnnnn..........never thought of that since i tot that only johorean's are the ones that normally practices all these thing..............some more it was a hot day to add to the pressure so u guys could imagine how i was sweating that day.............i sweat more than the groom for the day i guess...........hahahahaha..........knees were weak out of sudden and that i've thought of other thing.............i asked mahat that are there any tolls at the gate where we had to give small change to the people at the gate.........and he said that there might be..........i was like WHAT????? and u never told me this.........hmmmmm, should have brought my touch and go reader or my credit card machine so that i could charge it there........hhehehehe..........then ayu came to mahat and i asked her whether are there any rituals today? and she said no..............and i tell u peeps that i was very relieved hearing that..........hehehehehehe....................

so off went the ceremony with the kompang and we escorted mahat to the pelamin and also he sat at the pelamin and i started to do my duty in which i had to wipe mahat's sweat, make sure that he is comfortable and also i had to be his helper to ensure that he is treated like a king.......... mahat was "dancing" on the pelamin becoz he was enjoying the beat of the kompang..........and i was like dude, on pelamin, no joget joget la, after this u wanna joget u can go...........and he was like, i dun give a damn, i wanna joget on the pelamin........ok then.......hehehehe.........after the bersanding we went for lunch and then we went back in for photography session..............the wedding ends bout 2ish and i was very sleepy on the way back from the wedding coz tummy was full, the weather outside was extremely hot and we entered the car with the cooling air-cond........what more can a person asked............hehehehehe...

..........after sending sweetie back to her place, i hit back home and upon arrival at home, some of the relatives were at home to visit dad.............the rest of the nite, i took it easy and just enjoy it.................

the next day, i woke up really early just to give dad's car and baby jazzy a dry clean coz on the way back yesterday from the wedding, i hit some rain drops so it left marks here and there on the cars..............and suprisingly dad was very happy when he saw his car was sparkling shinning..............so later, i have no issue to use dad's car again and again...........we must know how to tackle people's heart ma.............hahahahaha................

after the dry cleaning of the cars and all, i went to get ready for the wedding and arrived at the hotel bout 1115ish.......... sweetie couldn't make it coz she needs to attend something.......... upon arrival at the hotel, mahathir was getting ready in his pengantin clothes whilst i am still in my jeans and tshirt........so u can imagine how kanciung i was getting ready..........

with all the make ups and also the sampin folding to perfection around our waist, we went down to the VIP waiting area and there the floor manager briefed us on what was the plan and also where should the bestman should be standing and eat.............. then out of sudden, ayu realised that she has forgotten her hand bouquette in the room, and mahat was like, dude, u need to run up and get it.............so with holding up my sampin not to make it fall, i ran up as if i'm faster than the olympic gold medal winner Usain Bolt.........hahahahaha...........with a flash i came back with the bouquet................

then we got prepared for marching into the hall and the real kompang was playing with people playing it........i dunno bout u peeps, but for me i prefer to the real people playing kompang rather than the musix kompang where it comes out from the speaker box..............it just doesn't bring in the umphh in the environment when the bride and groom walks into the hall..............so back to the story, we the pengapit walked in first during the marching to the pelamin and set up the chairs for the pengantin to sit on............... apparently there was no space for us the pengapit to be on the stage, so for us is that we just go up there, set up the place for the pengantin and came down the stage and wait at the end of the stage for the bride and groom to come down and escort them to the eating stage.............
after accompanying them to the eating stage, we the pengapit had our own table for the food which is beside the main eating stage for easy access if there were any probs to the bride and groom...............and when i was having my meals, i got a phone call from sweetie........and to my suprise, she said that she's already at the parking spot of the hotel.................so i went to pick her up and gave the keys to the room for her to change and later she went down to join the fun..........thx for coming sweetie....muaxxx......

so i accompany sweetie for lunch and later she went back to her errands.............met some folks from uni days and did some catch ups with em.........the function basically ends bout 4 and had some chat with mahat's relative and later at 5 went back to the room and took a nap..........felt very tired and just need to rest me eyes for a while............got a wake up call from sweetie bout 6 and hit back home where i've reached bout 7ish.................

all and all, my weekend was fun, hectic and tiring.............but then it is all worth it..............

to mahat and mokhzani, i wish u all the best and also happy always with ur partner in life..........

cheers.........

me and sweetie cam whoring at mahat's reception......hehehehe

me and some unimates.......

me and the "king" of the day.......mahathir muhammad........

the pelamin......

wake up and smell the coffee......

hmmmmmm, dunno bout u peeps, but then have u guys ever encountered that some people they pretend that they are modern or following the trend, but some how they are not........

i mean no harms or what so ever, it is just that somehow, our culture is still being stuck in the era in which is gud for 2-3 decades ago, but now if we still use the same concept we will be stagnent and not improving the quality of life or catching up as par with others............

ok, for an example, last time, when it is still in zaman tok kaduk or zaman pak pandir or what so ever, it is parents that made the arrangements for their kids marriage.......basically, they will find a very decent person to be married to their kids and from there they will have their own kids and grandchild and what so ever........ok, everything seems perfect, but then, is it the person that u r going to be married to in which ur parents are arranging it for u, r u going to be happy with the choice or r u just being a hypocrite in front of ur parents???? and when they are gone i mean the parents, and anything happen to u and ur partner of ur family's choice, who is gonna suffer? it is u who is gonna suffer of the consequences.......... it is better for u to live with someone who u know that who's gonna take care of u in the future, and make u happy and the ones that who accept u for who u are............. this is much more better and positive than having someone in ur life who u know that u can't give the same response as of those u adore.........

u see, it is from these types of mistakes that we learnt and we excel in life and we grow up from it........ some how, i believe that in life, u have ur own rights to choose ur decision and it is acceptable to see ones point of view from others but the final decision is made by u, and later on, if anything happens, u won't blame others except urself...... u shouldn't be influence by others says becoz who r they to be KPC about ur life........ there are limits that others should respect of ur privacy....... and if we were to told them directly to their face, they will be very suprise becoz they are so not use to accept these kinds of comments......... yet i must say, although they say that they admit they are modern or to say that they are in par with the city life, but from my point of view, they are still people who are country.com (kg.com) minded who just can't accept the fact that people nowadays don't like to be KPC like they do in years before time........we have grown up and have learnt the lessons that u guys have faced before us, and we dun wanna do that coz it is a troublesome for us........... just that these people who are reluctant to change......sigh....

somehow, we asians especially, need to wake up and smell the coffee and also grow up if we wanna compete with others.......yes, i know that all the culture thingy is a lesson that we've brought from generations to another generations.........but the most important thing from my point of view, to change the culture it is hard coz it has been pass on from generations to generations.........but, for us to make a small change, we just take the good values from the culture and we put it in our lives, if we decided that we dun want to follow the culture...........

yet, i must say again, that this is just my thoughts that is being stucked in my head for quite some time.......so again, only here is how i express my thoughts for u peeps to think about and who knows, it might open ur eyes a bit wider........

cheers peeps.....

a building that is modern, yet has a traditional values..........

dad's in the hospital.......

today, went out to lunch with lan, ron and also feisal.........i've ordered mee hoon kung fu (yes, i'm now obsessed with things that are kung fu since watching kung fu panda.........watchaaaaaaaa)....... and whilst waiting for my order, i've got a phone call from mum stating that dad is going for a engioplasty.......and i was like, errrr.....what is that mum? she said that dad is having a blockage at one of his heart artery and the doctor said that dad needs to go for this ASAP...........

oh yeah, yesterday, dad went for a thorough checkup.........he decided to go for a thorough check up since 3 of my granduncles underwent a surgery all in one month....... at first, he said to himself that he is a golfer, a regular player of the game (almost every week he has a game) and that nothing is gonna happen.......but then he was wrong..........

when he went for a CT scan yesterday....... mum said that dad was shaking his legs left and right coz he is nervous bout it although he didn't showed it in his impression......but we all know that he is nervous.........u see, dad is the only person so far that i know that hasn't been admitted to the hospital yet coz apparently dad is so lucky that he has a healthy life although he is a smoker....... but then, i think this is dad's first time doing a full scan so he is very nervous bout it........so back to the story......when the doctor looked at the results, he noted that there were something blocking on dad's heart.........

so the doctor decided that dad should go for a endiogram (liquid that goes through your vein to see are there any blockage at ur artery)........upon arriving home yesterday, dad said that it was cold although mum said that the day was freaking hot that dad decided to ask to switch off the air cond.....hmmmmm..... i guess dad was so nervous that his mind was everywhere....poor dad...hhuhuhuhu............so at night, dad wants to go for a roti canai session....... we (myself, mum and dad) went for a roti canai session last nite for our supper and just have the quality time just the 3 of us.........

this morning, when dad was about to go for his endiogram, he asked the doctor whether he can be under sedative so that he will be knocked out when the endiogram is on the way....and the best part was, the doctor laughed saying that in medical history, no patient has ever ask whether they can be under sedative while endiogram is on its way.........hehehehehe......so dad is really nervous.......gotcha......hehehehe....... the doctor noted that there is one main artery that is blocked by the fats so he said that this could be resolved via endioplasty whereby they will put in a plastic tube in the vein and remove the fats so that the blood could flow as usual....

dad said that during the endioplasty procedure, he said that when the fibre optic wires are running through his veins, it is very ticklish as if someone is tickling u and u wanted to LOL but dunno how to stop it.........hehehehehe....just imagine rite, u r very ticklish and u wanted to do this endioplasty procedure......oh yeah, dad was wide awake when the procedure is on its way......it is a normal practice that a patient is awake when the procedure is on the way.........

the fibre optic is basically a camera to show the doctor and also dad could see it on the screen on whereabouts were the wire in his body.......dad said that he laughed and the doctor said please dun laugh........so u can imagine how torturey it was the procedure......on one hand u wanted to laugh becoz it is ticklish, on the hand u r not allowed to laugh....how much torture could one get rite.....hehehehehe......

so, when the wire had found its way to the blocked artery, the doctor then would put a plasic thingy on the initial part of the fibre optic and it squiggles it's way to the artery........and this is the second time that dad had to tahan of the torture of the procedure.......huhuhuhu......poor dad........

once the plastic thingy had made its way to the artery, the doctor will then pull out the wire and it will leave the plastic thingy in the heart artery to get rid of the fats and be a struture for the veins to hold........ and later the procedure was done and dad was being placed at the ICU........
when i've told my colleagues bout dad's story, their facial impression changed from happy to worry.......coz none of them cares to go for a thorough medical checkup........so u can imagine how worried they are......hahahahahaha.....

went home a bit early today and went straight to the hospital and dad told his experience to us.........we burst out laughing at the ICU and the nurse was like shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.............sorry nurse, it is just that the story is so funny and some more dad is cracking jokes saying that this is his most torture time in life yet coz spending time in the ICU with no TV to watch.........hehehehehe... dad, there is a reason why it is called the ICU...........well, dad is gonna be discharged tmrw and he needs bout 2 months of break..........

so the morale of the story is, let's all be healthy........

cheers peeps and pee pees....

dad staring boringly at the ceiling in the ICU

dad's view of the rest of the ICU ward

dad and mum killing time off.......hehehehe

like dad like son....luvs to goof around...hehehe.........peace y'all

prepare early for things to come.........

ok, in life we must prepare for the things that are gonna happen for the future..... this is becoz that later in the future when the things come, we are ready and that things will go with the plan which we have arrange earlier.......... we must practise this in our daily life and also throughout our life..........

and that is what i did today........... not being ambitious or what so ever..........but i've sent an email to my superior that i'm requesting for something..........and that something is i'm asking for a leave from work for hari raya..........hehehehehe...............basically i'm just taking an extra day off so that i can have 5 days straight of raya and enjoy it to da max........

yes i know that raya is like a month and a half away but then i just need to ensure that i'm taking a step ahead from the rest........... and as soon that i've updated my calendar in the office, all of my colleagues who wanted to take leave started to ask the boss for it.....hahahahaha......yes yes, i can say that i'm turning into a kiasu person......but then not as much what people........just to make sure that i can get things done..........hehehehe........

yey yey..........can enjoy for the hols..........hehehehe

cheers peeps and pee pees.......

life must go on no matter what.........

once in a while, when i'm alone......... dun care where it is.......driving, about to sleep, in the washroom and so on........ i tend to think bout the incidents and also the history that had happened throughout my life........... sometimes it made me smile and sometimes it brings smears to my face..........i know that no one's life is perfect and neither is mine............ i admit it that there are times i've tasted success and there are also times that i've tasted failures.............

when times like this, i think back things that had happened to me since i was small right up to where i am now............ bout remembering 50 50 of my kindergarten years where i cried on the first day of school for both years (yes i cried till the whole kindergarten stopped and look out the window just want to know of who is crying).......hehehehe........ what was i thinking of not wanting going to kindergarten................ and the day that i entered standard 1 in Melawati Primary (well, this time i didn't cried coz i was older compared to my kindergarten years) .............errrrrrr duhhhhh............ and also rite up to the years where we spent 3 years of my life in australia ..........

those years where we were called the foreigners........mixing around with different races and also cultures......... going to our chosen class every friday evening.........well mum always put me in the swimming class coz she wants me to learn of how to swim......and i hated that.............but then again, look now, i can swim.......... yeah when we were young we couldn't "see" of the reason doing one thing that can bring us advantage............ and the choir session there where i've got the chance to sing at the opera house.........yes yes, i've sang in there before as a choir group........ the people there were great and also the malaysians were close......

then it is time to come back to tanah airku.........kind of sad to when leaving the land downunder......but life has to go on...........then when arrived back here, it was my secondary level of education.......kind of culture shock at first but then sooner or later get use to it......... met family members, made new friends and also raising up as a city boy.............yeah, can't leave kl for 2-3 days unless the place where am going is the same as KL..........

got my degree few years after that and now look at me, am working, trying to enjoy life and also settling down with my luv ones......... sometimes i wonder, y are there some things that didn't went how we planned? why do i failed in life sometimes..........i guess there must be a blessing in disguised........ life must move on and we must learned on what has happened to make us wiser and also to reflect back of what if those failures didn't happened.........will we be where we are today? or is it going to be better or worse?

the morale of the story is that , things happens for a reason.............. and we should be thankful of what we've gone through and where we are today................

cheers peeps...........luv u all........







what's on the menu chef??

i dunno bout u guys..........but there is a problem when it comes to choose the type of food......... i mean yeah, food is important to us........but then again rite, it is that we kind of lack in terms of varieties........i am not saying that i am not thankful of what i have, but then come on people let's create some creativity in our meals.......

it is either chicken, fish, duck (for some) and lamb....... it is mainly that these types of dishes that we eat all the time........ ok ok, we do have alternatives whereby they made it into Satay, sandwiches, burgers and so on.....but again, how many days we can go on with it.........i mean i ain't gonna go with biawak panggang, otak monyet, snakes (like in the indiana jones movie) and so on........so out of my league the menu........uwek uwek.......

brought up this topic becoz we normally will face this problem when it is lunch hours, dinners, going out on a date and for those who are cooking, it is normally that they wouldn't have a clue, ideas or alternative of what to cook for dishes........just imagine this, if u r the "cook" in the house (either male or female), u will face this difficulties in which u r trying to keep intrest of those who are living in the same roof to consume of what u have prepared........

this is a confession that i've heard from in the radios and also from personal experience...... if this is the case, let us all become a vegetarian so that we can eat different types of vegetables everyday.......switching it from day to day till we go green........hehehehehe........ or another alternative is let's be a baby again......... let us all drink milk all day...... nonetheless, our bones will be very healthy.....hehehehe

so i challenge u chef wan, gordon ramsay, jamie oliver, anthony bourdain and so on.......bring on something unique so that we have more appreciation on what is on the table..........


the book is there as a guidance, but cooking is an art that is full of "expression"

Jj's Wedding

Last Sunday, after i came back from Melaka for a treasure hunt, me and sweetie attended a wedding of my high school senior and also a friend of sweetie. Johannis Johari or better known as JJ tied the knot with his partner in life Mardiah.

Sweetie fetched me accompanied with her buddy Fai. They've arrived at my place bout 815ish and we went straight to the venue. The reception was held at Dewan Perdana Felda and i must admit that the hall is nice and it could fit more than 1000 people........ the food was traditional malay cuisine and in which it was up to the standards of malay tradional taste.

We sat at the table numbered 62 in which another friend of ours Edoni and Syahril was there too. The function was beautiful so does the door gift. It is very unique and also sweet. It has that elegance touch of it. I've met Jj's brother who is my batchmate in school. All and all, the function went well and we all enjoyed it.

To Jj and Mardhiah, hope u guys will have happiness living together and also to ur anak and cucu and cicit and piut and all........hehehehehe........cheers
