when the sun beams while the rain falls, there comes my bittersweet rainbow :)

Anam Cara


There was a game after a lesson by a lecturer. Not mine, but I read it somewhere. A short story but it touches my heart. Anyways, there was this one post grad student who happened to volunteer when the lecturer asked who wants to play this game. There he was raising his hand and walked to the front of the class. A question was asked, he had to list down 5 people that are close to him. He listed down his parents as in his mum, dad, wife and his two kids. The next question was asked, he had to choose. If he was given a situation where a life of the meaningful people around him will be taken. Which one among those 5 will it be? He paused. For quite some time. He looked deep into his lecturer's eyes to confirm the question. He had to choose. He decided to cancel his dad. WHY? because his dad is too old. It's better for him to die than to suffer. One person after another. The next person is the mum and the kids. WHY? because the kids will grow up and meet the love of their lives. They might forget him. They might abandon him. BUT one thing for sure, his wife will stay with him come hell or high water. They'll grow old together. WHY? because they love each other. 

Nope. It's not a love story. 

Last year, I went to Bukit Jambul to buy something and to hang out with my girls. we decided to eat at KFC and I saw something that touches my heart. There was an old Chinese man around my dad's age. Older perhaps. Cleaning up those tables and he's wearing blue shirt with name tag. As far as I'm concern, that's the official uniform of KFC.

End of last year too, I was at Kapitan, Penang. Celebrating my last paper with food but I'm not sure why I failed to eat up all my briyani. I left quarter of my rice on the table and walked away. As I walked out of the restaurant, I've intercept with a Chinese uncle who's eating the leftovers from the garbage. Dumpster to be exact. It touches my heart and I cant seem to forget that incident even until today.


This very evening, while I was waiting for the bus. There's this one Indian lady with couple of bottles and cans in her hands along with a helmet, asking for the time. We had a short chit chat about the hot weather. Few minutes after, the husband came, riding a very old motorcycle. Both of them are wearing gardener's uniform. The husband took the bottles and the cans from her. I assume they're going to recycle those things for extra penny. They went off and she smiled at me.


Gosh, I always  pray days and nights that things like that will never happen to me or I'm the one who will be doing that to my parents. Truth to be told, I always asked myself questions. WHY DO I HAVE TO LEARN LIFE THE HARD WAY? why me? why cant I have everything that I want? What can't I get what I desire easily? Why can't I have a perfect life? Why can't I this and that and this and that. Selfish and ungrateful person I am. Not knowing that there are other persons in this world or even around me who have to suffer for a meal. Not even for a proper meal. I can't seem to relate whatever I feel and I saw atm but one thing for sure, I should learn to be grateful.

PARENTS.
they can be the pain in the ass but they're the ones that we seek to when we need love. They never failed to fulfill our needs. They never say no. Anam Cara. It stands for soul mate. vampire language. haha. well, no matter how rich you will become, no matter how successful you will become someday, never leave them behind. Just don't. Hold their hands, walk with them. Let them grow old together because they complete each other. Just so you know, what goes around will always comes back around. 


This is random and all over the place. 
But..
yeah, whatever.

tahi hidung

oh well, hello people :D



I seriously am going to talk about korek hidung and tahi hidung. yupp. Tipu tak pernah korek hidung. I was just wondering how did tahi hidung boleh terproduce so, basically what i understand from my readings is that mucus are trapped when you breath until tahi hidung is produced. basically tahi hidung tu mcm mucus yang dah kumpul banyak2 lah. Simple analogy that I can think of is bila you dah lama tak sweep the floor. you cant see all the habuk2 but once you swept the floor and kumpulkan the habuk all together and POOF! the outcome. hehe. segerombolan habuk macam wool kambing biri2 color grey. 

you see, It's not about korek hidung je sebenarnya. well, i might see things differently. It's all about the choices that you're going to make. To keep your nose clean by korek hidung and yepp fresh air guaranteed or keep as much as mucus as you want in your nose and breath dengan tak selesanya and keep them all to yourself without any intention nak clean your nose. You can live in misery and suffer from tak korek hidung or korek hidung and enjoy life with without the tense of having something in your nose and enjoy every odour, every scent freely. loll

Okay, basically it's not all about digging your nose. sometimes to let out and let go of unnecessary things in you and in your life is better than keeping it to yourself. You're not solving anything by keeping things. well at least, by letting it all out, you actually feels better. yupp. much wayyyy better. trust me :) let them go. let them out. let the negative thoughts, feelings, and anything that's torturing you be it mentally or emotionally out by sharing. I have to admit that it's not an easy task but then again, worth the try.

SO, this post is not all about korek hidung and tahi hidung je kan? haha

lets dig our nose together and live happily ever after ; A -OO-

Yes and No?

Hello handsome faces and pretty ladies :D It's been a while since my last post. Hectic days and busy sem break. well, they're just reasons though. hehe. I've plenty to share but I'm out of my writing mood. So, here it goes, updates from me ;P


  1. Went to Indonesia and bad luck me, not even a day I landed there, I was snatched, Well, takde rezeki kot. Lost couple of hundred bucks, IC, bank cards and etc. Had difficulties to renew my bank cards and Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara sekat here and there I feel like killing them all just because I lost my IC abroad so yeah, whatever~
  2. My taekwondo's coach called me and informed me that they will drop my name from MASUM team due to my injury and that only means no extra allowance for me. sad news :(
  3. I've got myself a part time job as a writer for a website after submitting a sample article which I made the night before its due date. Thanks to Kak Farhana for encouraging me to submit a piece of my writing product. hehe.
  4. trying my luck to represent USM to Istanbul. The interview will be held on the 3rd and 4th of March :3
okay done with updates. So, whatsupp? 
I've been observing the 'kahwin muda' trend lately. Okay, let me make things clear first and foremost. I'm not an activist or fighting for women's right or anything related. It's just that I kinda like not a big fan or I'm not that into getting married at the age of early twenties perhaps? to put it into simpler words, I'm against early marriage. No offense even though my mum was 19 and my dad was 25 when they were married.

well, marriage vs. wedding. They're two different things. huge differences. 


Wedding.
It takes you as long as you want to be prepared for A MEMORABLE DAY. You're up at the highest cloud.   Its all about 'aaaahhh''uuuuuuu''omaigodd bestnyaaa' and yadayada~

Marriage.
It takes you your whole life to suck all the sugar and spice, flying pots and pans, a prince charming once that turns into a beast after couple of years, endless ka ching! problem and bla bla bla

Fight. Young couple on a gray background. Stock Photo - 4504498
*that would be me kicking my spouse. hehe*


COMMITMENT.RESPONSIBILITY


That's what you signed for. well, pretty much you're bonded to serve your husband and kids at the age where you can actually do things for yourself. I'm not saying that once you get married, you're tied to one guy and you're not free to do whatever you want but there will be an invisible line, which restrict you from doing things just because someone says NO. 

Everyone will have their own opinions. How are they going to end their single life, how are they going to start the new chapter of their lives, how many kids they wanna give birth to, umur berapa nak kahwin, nak kahwin dekat mana and such but for once, do ask yourself questions like don't you have anything to achieve in life? are you satisfied with how much you have contribute to your parents? because as far as i know, once you're married, your loyalty goes to your husband. NOT your parents. And the most important question is, will the guy that you marry guide you, treat you the way you should be treated, love you till your last breath, be with you through the ups and downs of your marriage life, and you yourself are prepared for a new daily routine? full time housewife, part time maid, full time employee and blablabla. It's not just about sharing bed and having a new housemate. It's more than that. well prepared for that?

Not being a pessimist neither not believe in marriage. It's a lie if I say that I don't wanna get married and have couple of kids but you know, that will only happen when I'm satisfied enough with my lifetime achievement  which will take couple of years. I believe many of us will have different opinions regarding this issue but yeah, rich parents, employed future husband with stable life and there you go, you're still on your way grabbing your degree scroll. That sounds okay lah kot. but kalau you're 12, you quit school because you're prepared to get married with 18 year old guy who lives with parents' income then think twice. 

Employed husband can definitely survive if anything happen to your marriage. How about full time housewife? custody? who's gonna feed you IF your husband leave you for another girl. Love fades, feelings change, polygamy is allowed. And there you go, left behind with awful heartbreak, kids to feed with no income source and an ex-husband who's having his good time with his new wife or girlfriend. 

So girls, if you punya boyfriend masuk meminang esok, will it be a YES or a NO?
