worth to Visit

Guess. which one is geeGrik HeHe. seriously i'm damn lazy updating my blog. I will reserve Dubai entry for a moment. Seriously Dubai is so surreal. very well developed and developing. Their man-made island, and six lane highway with skyline on left and right amazed us. It doesn't look like Arab country anymore. You won't see dessert there, unless you drive yourself to outskirt. Basically, this city is a one-stop-center. You could let your kids enjoy skiing while you were shopping at the malls. The beach was nice where you could enjoy watching mat sallehs tanning themselves with two-pieces on.
They have summer sale when we were there. Luckily I managed to snap my self at Al Buruj on our first day, else i have no proof that I was there. Mel was so excited to get into every shops at the mall of the emirates. Too much temptation for her. She became "sasau" when when she looked at "MNG 60% sale for all items, Guess 50% for all items, Levis 25% for all items, and etc". I pampered myself as well by buying a few, and my friend Nuar bought himself Prada sunglass. Those expensive sunglasses would not transform me into a handsome man, so I rather spend it at my discounted Levis and Guess.
Since Mel became sasau, she just excited watching those and ended up buying one or two only for herself. Good for me as well :P
So, 2 days is not enough to be in Dubai. They have a lot of big malls where you couldn't finish it in one day. If you plan to go during sale, better do sight seeing first, else you became sasau HeHe. "Abang kalau abg kerja sini, yang sanggup hantar abang pergi kerja hari" you're right. I should be thankful being in Doha now, so i could keep my hunny bun sugar plum safely at home. HaHaHaha

Off to Dubai

I haven't taken any flight for quite some time and I kinda miss it. InsyaAllah tomorrow we will be off to Dubai. Mel needs to renew her visa and it is being a good reason for me to be out of Doha for a while. I told a lot about here and nothing much to tell now HeHe. I will update more of my trip in next entry.
Hey, I have my own 'friendster' now. decided to have one after Mel nagging at me using her account to see other ppl page. HaHa. my SIL teased me back because I used to say "Friendster belongs to poyos and it is too childish" HaHa. It's quite cool to see your close friend in inner circle.

I just updated my blog :-). Readers you are not disappointed in me today right?

Jodoh.. renungkanlah sedalam-dalamnya

I received this excerpt from my cousin.

Tidak,
Jodoh tiada kaitan dengan keturunan. Hanya belum sampai masanya. Ia bagai menanti jambatan untuk ke seberang. Kalau panjang jambatannya jauhlah perjalanan kita. Ada org jodohnya cepat sebab jambatannya singkat. Usia 25 tahun rasanya belumlah terlalu lewat. Dan usia 35 tahun belum apa2 kalau sepanjang usia itu telah digunakan untuk membina kecemerlangan. Nyatakanlah perasaan dan keinginan anda itu dalam doa2 lewat sembahyang. Allah mendengar.

Wanita baik untuk lelaki yang baik, sebaliknya wanita jahat untuk lelaki yang jahat. Biar lambat jodoh asalkan mendapat Mr Right dan biar seorang diri drpd menjadi mangsa lelaki yang tidak beriman kemudian nanti.

Memang kita mudah tersilap mentafsir kehidupan ini. Kita selalu sangka, aku pasti bahagia kalau mendapat ini. Hakikatnya, apabila kita benar2 mendapat apa yang kita inginkan itu, ia juga dtg bersama
masalah.

Kita selalu melihat org memandu kereta mewah dan terdetiklah di hati kita, bahagianya org itu. Hakikatnya apabila kita sendiri telah memiliki kereta mewah kita ditimpa pelbagai kerenah. Tidak mustahil pula org yang memandu kereta mewah(walaupun sebenarnya tak mewah) terpaksa membayar lebih tatkala berhenti untuk membeli durian di tepi jalan. Orang lain membeli dengan harga biasa, dia terpaksa membayar
berlipat ganda.

Ketika anda terperangkap dalam kesesakan jalan raya, motosikal mencelah-celah hingga mampu berada jauh di hadapan. Anda pun mengeluh, alangkah baiknya kalau aku hanya menunggang sebuah motosikal seperti itu dan cepat sampai ke tempat yang dituju. Padahal si penunggang motosikal mungkin sedang memikirkan bilakah dia akan memandu kereta di tgh2 bandar raya.

Bukan semua yang anda sangka membahagiakan itu benar2 membahagiakan. Bahagianya mungkin ada tapi deritanya juga datang sama. Semua benda, pasti ada baik buruknya. Demikian juga perkahwinan. Ia baik sebab ia dibenarkan oleh agama, sunnah Nabi, sebagai saluran yang betul untuk melepaskan shahwat di samping membina sahsiah dan sebagainya, tapi ia juga buruk sebab ramai org yang berkahwin hidupnya semakin tidak terurus.

Ramai orang menempah neraka sebaik sahaja melangkahkan kaki ke alam berumahtangga. Bukankah dengan ijab dan Kabul selain menghalalkan hubungan kelamin, tanggungjawab yang terpaksa dipikul juga turut banyak? Bukankah apabila anda gagal melaksanakannya, anda membina dosa seterusnya jambatan ke neraka?

Berapa ramaikah yang menyesali perkahwinan masing2 padahal dahulunya mereka bermati-matian membina janji, memupuk cinta kasih malah ada yang sanggup berkorban apa sahaja asalkan segala impian menjadi nyata?

Jika tidak sanggup untuk bergelar isteri tidak usah berkahwin dulu. Jika merasakan diri belum cukup ilmu untuk bergelar ibu ataupun ayah, belajarlah dulu. Jika rasa2 belum bersedia untuk bersabar dgn kerenah anak2, carilah dulu kesabaran itu. Jangan berkahwin dahulu sebab kenyataannya ramai yang tidak bersedia untuk melangkah tetapi telah melompat, akhirnya jatuh terjerumus dan tidak jumpa akar berpaut tatkala cuba mendaki naik.

Berkahwin itu indah dan nikmat bagi yang benar2 mengerti tuntutan2nya.

Berkahwin itu menjanjikan pahala tidak putus2 bagi yang menjadikannya gelanggang untuk mengukuhkan iman, mencintai Tuhan dan menjadikan syurga sebagai matlamat. Berkahwin itu sempadan dari ketidaksempurnaan insan kepada kesempurnaan insan - bagi yang mengetahui rahsia2nya.

Berkahwinlah anda demi Tuhan dan Nabi-Nya, bukan berkahwin kerana perasaan dan mengikut kebiasaan. Jodoh usah terlalu dirisaukan, tiba masanya ia akan datang menjemput, namun perlu juga anda membuka lorong2nya agar jemputan itu mudah sampai dan tidak terhalang. "

Seorang teman pernah berpesan..

"Kadang2 Allah sembunyikan matahari..
Dia datangkan petir dan kilat..
kita menangis dan tertanya-tanya,
kemana hilangnya sinar..
Rupa2nya.. Allah nak hadiahkan kita pelangi.." "

`Cinta yang disemadikan tidak mungkin layu selagi adanya imbas
kembali. Hati yang remuk kembali kukuh selagi ketenangan dikecapi.
Jiwa yang pasrah bertukar haluan selagi esok masih ada. Parut yang
lama pastikan sembuh selagi iman terselit didada...`

p/s: Dapat clip Raja Azura dgn mamat mana ntah. Muka sebijik Raja Azura. tapi adakah benarkah dia? geeGrik penerima universal. so layan jer lah...

We have a Visitor

I thought "OWN"’s flight at 4.00 pm Malaysia time. I failed to contact him, so I just sms’ed Jeghi asking him to ask own to sms me his itinerary. Luckily, I had a good instinct, else nobody would wait for own at the airport. I guess, Doha airport is not ready to welcome people during summer. Same thing goes to own, he couldn’t stand the heat and easily get heated. HaHa. Since he arrived on Thursday morning, I brought him to my friend’s flat for a while. He was a bit pissed off because he tot I wanted to leave him there for the rest of the weekend. I couldn’t let him be in my flat that morning because Mel still on bed and I wasn’t sure what time she would open her eyes.

So, I left my work a bit early (15 minutes before 3) because my dog started to bark. No offence since I used to say this to him and a little puppy kinda cute right. I picked him exactly at 3 and brought him back for lunch. Like all first timer, he had bad impression on Doha as well. “Kalau aku kena kerja sini, aku rasa aku balik esok”. Hey guys, if you wanted to come here, better come during winter, at least this downtown will not look so bad. Then I told him, Doha is a good stop over for him, as we wouldn’t know what Algeria looks like. The only thing we know, they have beautiful girls. The country just south of Spain and people could use ferry to cross over.

We decided to watch Transformer that night. I asked Khai to join us, so we could ride on his prado. I asked own to take a nap for a while as I believe he was jet lagged, but he was busy playing with internet. Sorry my friend, most of x-rated sites have been blocked, only a few good sites from Nyace can still be accessed by me. The show was fantastic. Even though we had to sit in the first row, this non stop action movie with good effects really fires us up. I watched movie for fun, so if it didn’t make me feel sleepy, I judged it as a good movie. So porn still a good movie for me. Opps my little brother-in-law reading this. Hey who cares. They watched it too silently as I catch a lot of bad history in their pc. HaHaHaHa.

After the show, we stopped at Thaly’s restaurant for late supper. We had roti canai, mutton and chicken curry. We were there for almost an hour as my friend asking a lot of job related matter to own. I knew he was so tired because not having enough sleep. Mel and I enjoying our meal very much as we could finish 1 and half each ;-). On our way back, I told Khai that we planned to go to Sea Line tomorrow and he agreed to bring us there. Actually I purposely told him so. HaHa. My car is too small to go there HeHe.

The next day after asar prayer we headed to Sea Line but I was the only one swimming in the sea. Mel, khai, and own just sit in the car having spaghetti and Jajan. I couldn’t help myself for being too long in the water alone, so I just out of it after 15 minutes there. Back to the car, I had the leftover spaghetti before driving back home. Being a tourist, own had a couple of pictures taken there.

We returned home for maghrib prayer before going to Hyat Plaza since own wanted to meet his friend Pod Lah there. We had our dinner together, then we left own and pod lah to have their time. Me and Mel were doing some shopping. There were 50% sale at osh kosh and Barbie so we decided to buy a few pieces for our nephews and nieces. We bumped in again into Nine West shop and Mel bought another handbag added to her collection. The only reason because she just had 2 here, because the rest were in Malaysia. No worries, it will be deducted from her allowance anyway.

On our back home, we drove Pod lah back to his flat since he came by bus. I guess everybody were sleepy so I just turned on the radio and listening to it.

We woke up a bit late the next day. Everybody was busy with notebook. But right after asar, we went to souq iran. This is a must visit place in Doha. The building was old and the decoration was nice. Basically it shows Doha. A lot of groceries shop there, where you can buy chocolates, textiles, abaya, jubah, Sejadah etc. We were there just wanted to have some candid for own.
Then the next place was cornice. You could see nice skyline here. Since the weather wasn’t so good, it was a bit vague impression in the pictures.

Souq Iran

“Abg pukul berapa nak belanja own malam ni” actually it was her to have dinner at apple bees restaurant again HaHa. “pergi terus sajalah”. Mel wanted to buy a few books, so we stopped for a while at Al Jarir’s book store. While she was busy looking for her books, me and own did our maghrib prayer there. About 8.00 pm, we went to the said restaurant. As usual Mel would order spinach for our starter, then Mel and I just ordered one meal as we used to have leftover. Own had his own meal, and as predicted he just managed to eat half only. I asked the waitress to tapau for us.


Back to my flat, own started to repack his stuff because he wanted to leave some here. A lot of foods in the baggage. Since most of it prepared by his mom, so better for him to bring it there and left other stuff here. I asked him to lock the clock at 4.30 am at least as we needed to leave at 5.30 am. As planned, everybody woke up quite early this morning. I had no idea why I needed to start my car a few times to turn on my car’s engine this morning. I guess it just wanted to suspense own. HaHa. Anyway we were lucky, and we managed to be at the airport quite early. After sending own off and wished him best of lucks, me and Mel stopped at thaly’s again but the curry wasn’t ready.

At 6.00 pm, I received sms from own, telling me that he safely landed and he was in Nokia office. Then in his email, he was happy to see beautiful ladies there. Hopefully the country is attractive as their ladies.

Good Luck to you Bro!!!

Artist - Tajuklagu: Taufik Batisah - Usah Lepaskan

The Lyrics:

Yang terindah
Terlukis di bibir mu
Tak pernah ku lihat senyum mu
Sebegitu
Pudar kah sudah cinta yang ku beri
Bewarna warni segala
Yang dijanjikan ia

(Chorus)
Usah biarku bersendirian
Usah biar hati mu di tawan
Usah biar diri ku disini
Seorang menunngu tanpa teman

Usah lepas genggaman tangan mu
Usah biar semua berlalu
Usah terlupa perasaan hati
Pertama kali kita bertemu
Usah lepaskan

(Bridge)
Tak mudah ku melupa segala yang berlalu
Ku ingin selalu bersama mu

Chorus

Ku tak peduli apa sebabnya
Engkau dan dia harus bersama
Mendungnya langit bila berkata
Kita patutnya masih bercinta
Usah lepaskan

Usah lepaskan

Yang terindah
Terlukis di bibir mu
Tak pernah ku lihat senyum mu
Sebegitu

The Sunday Blues

If people back home hate Monday, I dislike Sunday the same way since it is the first day of the week. For the past 6 months, I have not seen Fara Fauzana on Melodi, and no more Pancaindera at my doorsteps every Sunday HaHa. I used to subscribe The Star on Saturday because Mel was interested in Biz Week and I love to see job ads. I will read every detail but never applied through it. Then on Sunday, I scrap The Star but Utusan Minggu. Once I heard somebody throwing paper at my doorsteps I will get it and grab the middle one and pass the main one to Mel. HaHaHa.

Between me and Mel, we are totally opposite to each other. She has passion in her hobby, and I have none. Besides getting addicted to Korean Drama, she loves to read novels. Her interests more to fairy-tale, magical, spell, and charmed. Now she is reading romance story. I used to say this to her. “Ini buku blue. Sat abg cari.” Less than a minute I could tell which part in the book is showing erotic scenes. “Part tu jer tere. Saiko”. HaHaHa. Someone told me Fariza used to love romance novel, so those books consider sacred laaa. Fariza kan antara wanita wanita sopan di iTTM.

Anyway I love to see her reading rather than watching K-Drama. Sometimes seeing her giggling alone irritates me especially when it comes to my bedtime. I just couldn’t believe it, she could watch 160 episodes of Korean Drama. I told her “Kalau budak kecik tgk dah pandai cakap dah”. Although I did not watch much, but I guess I know a few Korean words already:

Anoyosayo : Hello
SarangHe : I love you
Kamsamida : Thank You
De / Kere : Yeap
Yobo : Darling / Sayang.

So when Mel calls me now, I will say those words to her. She kinda love it. Opps Back to work now. Nyace just sent me a good URL with no password. Yummy.
