sessi mengata...

I spent the first couple hours of my working day today mengumpat...ye, makan gaji buta lagi ni.  It started when C'nor YMed me asking "gambar umah *TanahLiat tuh baru ke?".  I answered with a "wahhh...tau ye"....and on..and on.. from meja makan, to pintu, mesin basuh, lampu...nothing escaped our scrutinizing eyes.  PK, sila lihat gambar2 tersebut dalam pesbuk ye...u'll definitely agree with me.


Though C'nor had never met TanahLiat in person but she has heard most of his swanky behavior.  I'm not the exact person to comment on people's lifestyle...sendiri pun hidup tunggang langgang kannn.  TanahLiat was one of my classmate, lifestyle memang lain macam sikit even when we were still studying...idak le macam kami yang kais pagi makan sampai malam ni.  I met him almost a year ago at our former tempat mengaji tu while i was doing some work for my current employer.  At that time he was just few months back from years of residing in one of this negara mat salleh meneman wifenya yang further study; he was jobless then and still now (after a year plus).  It's been difficult for him to find job since he's been away far too long, hence lack of working experiences.  Kalau mamat2 berkaliber lain; boleh je kalau nak start off with something new yang of course, kurang la sikit $$ since kita ni dah la tak pernah kerja after lebih kurang 10 years kannn.  Him, being berlagak as i knew him since dahulu kala had never change, not even a slightest bit.


He published photos of his renovated house on pesbuk.  I saw one of the photos the other day and mulut i ni dah nak gatal2 mengata...wahhh...flat screen!  Ye la kan, memandangkan i longed to have one tapi ntah la bila i can afford kannn, so i memang la agak dengki ni..hehe.  But the flat screen isn't why i'm feeling this way.  Biar la dia if he can afford one kan, apa salahnya ada benda tu kat rumah pun, kan keperluan tengok tv sekarang ni, lagi2 if you are free 24hours.  Yang buat i agak nak mengata ni is because dia sendiri yang admit tentang betapa tightnya financial dia, about the loans he took and betapa peningnya kepala thinking macamana nak bayar balik. Ntah kenapa dia tak malu plak nak bagitau i how he can't afford to pay road tax for his Hstream; makan pun kena bajet2, nak meniaga bla...bla... i yang berhati lembut ni (cehhh...!) bukan main la setuju dengan idea dia nak jual nasik lemak, bela itu ini; sedih ni bila kawan sendiri makan pun nak share je dengan bini sebab tak cukup bajet...ishhh.  We weren't close, but i guess he wasn't ashamed to tell me memandangkan i ni cuma kaya sikit je dari makcik PoziahNawi dalam cerita pondok buruk tu kot.


So, his session of showing off his new meja makan, kitchen cabinet penuh satu dapur bla...bla...was well admired and commented by his friends.  One even commented how rich TanahLiat must be to have such lavish house. He went on bragging how much he spent, betapa pandainya dia pasang sendiri pintu, betapa tak pandainya indon seberang depan tu pasang pintu, langsir, tiles...segala.


I wish him all the best.  I hope one day, he'll come to his senses.  Bak kata PK, "...mungkin dia sebenarnya ada banyak duit, kita je buat asumption dia miskin dr kita..."  Ye la kan...mana la kita tau.  Sorry la ye TanahLiat, kalau2 i termisjudge u...ishhh.  But i definitely am grateful for what i have now; great family, friends and my furry companions...alhamdulillah.

Tinggal Kenangan

Tinggal kenangan (Jauh kau pergi) - Caramel


PK telah menghasut i over breakfast this morning; dengan bersungguh2nya dia kata lagu Saleem versi indon yang dia dengar kat radio tu best sangat...kalah lagu Anang.  Maka i dengan bersungguh2nya balik & cari kat youtube.  Memang best banget.  I don't know if the one yang PK dengar tu acoustic version ke tak but i always prefer acoustic version, tak kira la lagu apa pun. 


It seems that the original song was sang by Gaby.  Kalau tak silap dia ni vokalis band Caramel (kalau tak silap ye...maklum la baca blog indon; bukan paham sangat pun).  There are so many versions of the story behind this song.  One of it is; Gaby (aka Ega) masih lagi sekolah kat Bali masa bf dia meninggal (merempit ke apa kot...xpaham gak ni).  Disebabkan dia nk exam, so family xbagi tau yang bf dia dah meninggal, so when she found out, dia telah frust gila2 & bunuh diri.  Kalau dia dah mati macamana plak ada lagu yang dia nyanyi kan...?  Another version kata, lepas dia frust2 gitu she wrote this song.  They said that the original song sang by her (sila dengar kat bawah ni ye...) was the last song she sang; (dia cuma rekod dengan henpon je, hence the sound idak le sedap sangat) sebab right after that she went backstage & telah bunuh diri.  Ishhh...mana2 je la kannn. 


Tinggal Kenangan (Jauh kau pergi) - Gaby



Caramel telah nyanyi balik lagu ni sometime in mid 2008.  Makanya Saleem la yang nyanyi balik lagu indon ni kan, sebab Saleem's version macam hujung2 tahun ni je baru keluar kat radio kan. Though i don't fancy Saleem's songs tapi memang lagu ni best sikit dari lagu2 dia yang lain...patut la kannn.


Yang ni chord lagu ni...PK, sila suruh MK practice ye; i'll come over to sing nanti...wahahahhaa.


Judul : Jauh
Penyanyi : Ega
Pencipta : Caramel - Ega

Poems - by Chairil Anwar

DO’A
kepada pemeluk teguh

Tuhanku
Dalam termangu
Aku masih menyebut namamu
Biar susah sungguh
mengingat Kau penuh seluruh
cayaMu panas suci
tinggal kerdip lilin di kelam sunyi
Tuhanku
aku hilang bentuk
remuk
Tuhanku
aku mengembara di negeri asing
Tuhanku
di pintuMu aku mengetuk
aku tidak bisa berpaling

                   ~  Chairil Anwar - 13 November 1943


I was googling for poems when i came across this one titled 'Doa kepada pemeluk teguh'.  The words were nicely put together; walaupun i memang tak paham apa makna 'pemeluk teguh' tu (ingatkan 'pemeluk tubuh'..salah baca rupanya), i love it instantly so i decided to save it.  Tetiba, after a few weeks; setelah dibaca berulang2 kali...baru la sedar, rupa2nya the same poem was sang before by Allahyarham Zubir Ali.  Patut la macam farmiliar je kannn...

The original poem was written by Chairil Anwar (1922 - 1949); an indonesian poet and nasionalism.  He came from a broken family (berantakan as they said); health was suffering as a result of his lifestyle and he died on 28 April 1949 which is now celebrated as literature day in indon.  They even had a bust of him displayed at the Monas Park in Jakarta; punya la they adore him... 

Here's another one by him

AKU

Kalau sampai waktuku
'Ku mau tak seorang kan merayu
Tidak juga kau
Tak perlu sedu sedan itu
Aku ini binatang jalang
Dari kumpulannya terbuang
Biar peluru menembus kulitku
Aku tetap meradang menerjang
Luka dan bisa kubawa berlari
Berlari
Hingga hilang pedih peri
Dan aku akan lebih tidak perduli
Aku mau hidup seribu tahun lagi
                ~ Maret 1943


Here goes the translation


Aku ("Me" - English translation)

If my time should come
I'd like no one to cry for me
Not even you
No need for those sobs and cries
I am but a wild animal
driven from its kind
Though bullets should pierce my skin
I shall still charge and fight madly
Wounds and poison shall I take aflee.
Aflee
'Til the pain and pang should disappear
And I should care even less
I want to live another thousand years 


xtau la sapa yang translate; dia ke orang lain yang tolong translate...

pesbuk...?

I wouldn't consider myself addicted to this 'pesbuk' thing. I hardly post anything on the 'wall' or whatever they call the space where they update their daily activities. However, i do use it as a platform untuk melatih skil bercucuk tanam ;-)

It annoys me so much that some people menyalahgunakan space tu as their personal diaries. Selang 5 minit update lagi..dan lagi...dan lagi..

Antara post2 ngada ~
* cyg...bila kita bleh gi mandi manda ni???
* having lamb shank @ aseana kafe, klcc

First; do you really think that anyone would be interested in your mushy mashy lovey dovey statement between you and your partner; be it your husband, bf, or whomever that person is.  Err...ni takde unsur-unsur dengki dan sebagainya ye...ehem!  But please, nak gi mandi manda pun nak bagitau orang ke?  Why not make it a little bit more specific; nak mandi kat mana? laut, sungai, bilik mandi?; nak pakai apa? berkemban, bikini, or...?  Alang-alang nak the whole world to know kannn.  I think the owner of pesbuk should put classification macam wayang tu...18SX, U etc.  Adakah pesbuk the only means of communication between you and your partner; what's wrong with your handphones people?  Kalau dah husband and wife tu...balik rumah tak sempat nak berkomunikasi secara normal ke...ish.


Second; you pegi makan kat klcc tu nak plak canang kat semua orang, what if you makan kat Nainas je macam i ni...nak ke you post kat pesbuk tu?  Ke orang2 macam ni memang tak makan kat tempat2 murahan ni... Sorry la ye kalau i ter'misjudged' you.  Ishhh...i doubt la.


Those two are among puluhan post2 yang buat i macam nak unfriend je diaorang ni. Kalau sekali sekala je, takde hal.  I understand that different people adopt different approach to let out their personal feelings/emotions etc and if you think by writing on the wall gives you ease of mind, by all means...do so.  Tapi kan, kalau dah every single activity nak bagitau semua orang, i guess it's not fair to others pulak kan.  Tak ke nanti orang yang membaca tu pulak yang stress ke apa...harassment can be in so many forms tau...


There was a post by mamat ni "rasa nak makan durian"; and after a couple of hours "dah makan durian".  Mak aiii...kalau la each and every single activity dia post; like "nak gosok gigi", then "dah gosok gigi"; later pulak "nak breakfast" - "dah breakast"; "nak pergi kedai beli gula" - "dah balik kedai beli gula" and so on... idak ke mengganggu minda tu?  Ok la, that was something of an overstatement of the facts la kan, but it can happen...percaya la.


mmm...dah le tu; i'll go on with my aktiviti mendengar2 lagu.  Should i post on the wall ke? "tengah dengar lagu kat youtube; jap lagi nak gi makan tengahari dengan kawan2; nak makan apa ye hari ni...".  Nanti la i ajak Sarip Dol i tulis2 jugak..."Abg Sarip...malam ni tengok wayang nak?" Cukup gedik tak...;p

Makan

This is a photo of Alex enjoying her biscuits (ye...my alexander is a 'she'; sempena nama 'alexander the great') & sebelah dia yg tumpang posing tu Jignu (that 'encik' yg terjun from my window few months back). Ishhh...Puan Kucing (PK) mesti marah lagi tengok gambar yang tak berseni ni...

It's easy for them...takde susah2 nak pikir nak makan apa, lauk apa, makan kat mana...etc. Yesterday i gave them makanan tin in the morning (hari Ahad adalah hari makanan tin!) & after sessi menjilat-jilat jari etc diaorang terus tido...

So, i pun bersiap-siap, janji dengan my sister & BIL nak breakfast kat kedai nasik lemak yang baru bukak dekat2 area rumah ni (ke dah lama bukak tapi i tak perasan?) & bak katanya 'international' itu...? I don't really enjoy the nasi lemak though...sambal dia manis sikit & nothing much to brag about other than the exquisite environment. I also ordered goreng pisang ala bali; tak tau la pisang apa ( i memang buta pisang jugak selain buta benda2 lain..) deep fried, served with gula merah and kelapa parut. Reminds me of putu mayam, except pisang ni masak, lembik & kalau sesapa yang jenis makan makanan yang 'sihat2' je, xde lemak, organik bagai...maka lupakan la ye.

I saw another potential tempat lepak/makan 'Otak-Otak' dekat2 situ gak...nanti2 la nak try. Memang susah nak cari tempat makan best kat area ni...balik2 Al-Nainas tu. Di tambah pulak dengan takde teman nak melepaknya, lagi la melemahkan anggota badan nak adventure kedai2 makan ni. My dinner biasanya merely biskut meri or roti cicah air which i usually share with my furry companions (FC). Ada la di kalangan my FC ni yang jenis makan benda2 berasaskan tepung...Jack, AJ, Bubu & ada la sekor dua lagi. Kalau la cuma itu makanan diaorang kannn...tak payah le i terbongkok-bongkok mengangkut guni 15kg tu naik tangga..ishh..ishh

Tengahari tadi setelah dipujuk rayu oleh member se opis i si Monah, maka kami pun menapak la ke 'Pevilien' nun. Maka i pun telah mencuba steamed dumplings at kedai 'Taiwan Kecik'; which looking at the samples sungguh membuka selera, transparent looking & sungguh nampak berkhasiat. When i got the dumplings, sungguh indah sample dari realiti...idak le membuka selera i walaupun in the end habis jugak dumplings tu i makan sambil mendengar pok-pek pok-pek si Monah.

Alahai...bestnya di waktu2 hujan ni kalau dapat kopi o panas...kopi hai peng plak tu. Makan plak pulut ayam goreng...muahahahaha......

post boring gila...

i'm bored....gila2 punya boring ni. Nasib baik bawak own laptop gi opis hari ni...maklum le, my pc kat opis ni jenis bisu..takde bunyi2 langsung. Hari ni meriah le sikit; boleh dengar2 lagu kat youtube, konon2 update blog, sambil sebelah tangan lagi berYM...hehe.

I'm listening to Ungu-Dilema Cinta. Nah..to those yang nak berjiwang; the lyrics ;-)

Ungu – Dilema Cinta

Seberapa salahkah diriku
Hingga kau sakiti aku begitu menusukku
Inikah caramu membalas
Aku yang selalu ada saat kau terluka

Seberapa hinanya diriku
Hingga kau ludahi semua yang ku beri untukmu
Tak ada satu pun perasaan yang mampu membuatku begitu terluka

Namun ku terlanjur mencintai dirimu
Terlambat bagiku pergi darimu
Bagiku terlalu indah perasaan itu
Tak mudah untukku menjauh darimu

Telah ku coba segala cara
‘Tuk bahagiakan kamu
Merebut hatimu
Namun tak semudah yang ku bayangkan
Bila kau tak inginkan ku ’tuk di sisimu

Tak pernah kurasakan sebelumnya
Menginginkan dirinya hingga ku tak kuasa
Meyakini hatiku bahwa ku mampu berlalu

Namun ku terlanjur mencintai dirimu
Terlambat bagiku pergi darimu
Bagiku terlalu indah perasaan itu
Tak mudah untukku menjauh darimu

Namun ku terlanjur mencintai dirimu
Terlambat bagiku pergi darimu
Bagiku terlalu indah perasaan itu
Tak mudah untukku menjauh darimu

i'm a fan of lagu2 indon. Ntah kenapa their songs always have special place in my heart. Bukan le lagu2 jiwang je...apa2 lagu pun; macam best je dengar banyak2 kali...

Boringnya...bila boleh balik ni...??? :-)
