A tribute to a friend...

kali ni nak bercerita about a friend i know since 1995.
kitorang kerje tempat berbeza, walaupun di daerah sama.
bertemu & berkenalan ketika menghadiri kursus.
since then, kami berkawan baik.
dari dia bujang, sehingga dia berkeluarga, kami kawan baik.
family dia pun aku kenal.

sebab kerje berbeza tempat, kadang2 je jumpe.
tapi bile jumpe, bergegau area tu dgn suare kami.
mungkin sebab both orang melaka yg agak mesra alam.
bila bertegur sapa... "bising".... hehehe.

kalau dia tahu aku kurang sihat, dia akan call.
pastu hantar food kat aku.
terharu, memang terharu.

bila aku dapat pindah ke melaka,
dia antara orang pertama yg aku call.
dia tumpang gembira & nasihat dia yg paling aku ingat...
"didik anak bangsa sehabis baik"

pagi tadik, bila aku cakap aku jatuh,
(sebab dia tanye kenapa aku MC)
dia pintas jalan aku,
(nasib baik aku sempat brake...hishhh)
and bermula la sesi bebelan seorang rakan baik.
(tadah telinga je la...huhuhu)

ye, sekarang kami sudah satu tempat kerje.
dia masih kawan baik aku.
masih tetap ambil berat tentang aku.
as a friend.
as a big brother.

kepada kawanku ini,
terima kasih.
hanya Allah yg mampu membalas segalanya.

Saje nak letak

lagu ni i heard for the first time masa aku tgh study kat Milwaukee.

this song reminds me of someone.

... dan dia telah pun,
...melangkah pergi...

Di Persimpangan Dilema

Masa berlalu
Tanpaku menyedari
Percintaan yang kita bina
Hampir terlerai
Apa salahku
Kau buatku begini
Dalam dilema
Di antara jalan derita
Tidak pernah kuduga
Ini semua terjadi
Oh!..............
Janganlah engkau
Menghancurkan segala
Setelah lama
Kita mengharungi bersama
Usah biarkan
Cinta kita yang suci
Dilambung ombak
Karam dilautan berduri
Hanya satu pintaku
Moga kau menginsafi
Oh!...............
Telah banyak yang kuberi
Sejak dulu lagi
Pengorbanan tiada pernah jemu
Hanyalah Tuhan saja
Bisa menentukan semua
Kesabaran daku menantimu
Oh!.............
Kutetap memaafkan
Dan berdoa kau kembali
Sebelum diri melangkah pergi

KPM Ayer Molek part 1

gambar pagi Khamis lalu, lepas ujan lebat. Ni reda sikit tapi 5 minit pastu, lebat semule.
Anyway, bangunan "besar" di tengah2 gambar is Akademi JPJ Melaka.
alahh...yang kene meningitis tu le.
so if nak ke KPMAM, ikut je signboard "Akademi JPJ".
Insya Allah sampai.
bangunan sebelah kiri, rumah Pengarah KPMAM.
Jalanraya yg nampak sipi2 tu, dari & ke arah Melaka town & kawasan sekitarnye.
So, every day i use this road lah.
Quite narrow & winding. Silap konar, mati keras woo!


ni gambar parking lot berdepan dgn jalan dari & ke arah Jasin.
as you can see, depan KPMAM ni, estet kelapa sawit.
belakang kitorang, estet getah.
kiri-kanan, pun estet getah.
yup, this place is... in my feveret words (my former MRSM students should remember them)...
"Ulu Banat"... hehehe

bilik yg bercahaya tu, reception room. kitorang "clocked-in" kat situ la.
my room plak, nun...tingkap yg paling kiri tu.
Besau gak la bilik nye.

But, kat mana pun kita di campak;
bandar ke, Ulu Banat ke, hatta dalam laut dalam sekalipun;
if niat kita ikhlas nak bekerja... perkara "tempat" tak timbul.
Tak gitu Cik Arr?
;-)
lagipun lecturers yg turut berpindah ke sini,
adalah lecturers yg hebat-hebat belaka.
Sesuai dgn visi baru KPMAM, ilham Pengarah kitorang,
Mr. Matias....

Selamat Terima Menantu Kak Poi

tadik balik Kg Teluk Berembang, Lubuk Cina; my mom's kampung; to attend the wedding of kak poi's daughter. Kak Poi or Fauziah, is Mak Ngah Maimon's daughter. Genetically they are not our relatives as my grandma (my mom's legally adopted mom) was an only child. That's why my grandma was known as "Enggal" or "Wan Enggal"...

anyway, they were my grandma's closest neighbour for the longest time; a few years before i was born. Even though they are not our relatives, we still regard them as one.

So, today, Mak Ngah terima cucu-menantu... ke ada gelaran lain? Aku hentam je yg cucu-menantu tu. Anyway, we didn't stay until bersanding...my dad hasn't been feeling well since last night.

Apapun, Datuk Wira Abu Seman pun ada tadik. I saw him dari dalam rumah... i was helping my cousins siapkan lauk pengantin. Dia tgh nak ke belakang umah, tgk org masak lauk... yup, for her granddaughter's wedding, mak ngah ajak orang kg & sedara mara masak reramai. memang meriah.... BTW, YB was invited by the bride's father. Lagipun YB memang wakil rakyat kg tu.

so, to mak ngah & family... thanks for the layanan yg amat mesra. To Zira & Mohammad, congrats & may you live happily ever after, just like your mom & dad and also your wan & tok.

no idea anak sape but i think they are cute!

Taman Seribu Bunga

Located next to Seri Negeri Ayer Keroh.
tapi aku heran, pelawat tak ramai.
mungkin sebab kurang promosi.
atau sebab lokasi yg sebelah Seri Negeri so orang ingat, officials je buleh masuk.

ntah le Belalang.
tapi tempat dia memang cantik.
especially the orchids' display.

even my brother dah berangan nak wat majlis kawin dia kat sini...
hahahaha!!!!

masuk: Free

Mini Malaysia

2nd time visit this place.
1st time = about 20 years ago. masa baru bukak.

A great place but very upset dgn condition Mini Asean.
Really-really tak terjaga...
macam dah ditinggalkan for a very long time.

which aku heran, sebab 2 days ago, ada ASEAN delegations yg dok meeting kat sini for 4 days. Pengurusan tak malu ke if those delegates cerita kat orang negara diorang, how malas Malaysian people to jaga such a great place.

Assalamualaikum... ada tak anak dara dalam rumah ni?
