Waving goodbye to 2009

Cool way to waving, ey?

(Any friends want to be invited to Google Wave? I still have 7 invitations left. Feel free to leave your interest in comment box.)

Bumi belum pulih

Korang pakai tak, Body Shop? Kan kalau kita lepas bayar barang Body Shop, counter girl akan tanya kat kita, ' Boleh akak letak barang ni dalam beg ? '

Tentulah boleh!

Aku suka idea recycle. Sebab dia bukan sahaja cool dan membantu menyelamatkan dunia, malah ia idea yang membuat manusia lebih berwaspada tentang apa yang perlu mereka buat untuk sama-sama menjaga dunia yang satu ini. Malaysia belum ada lagi badan-badan yang berminat mengeluarkan idea yang menggembirakan apabila masyarakat melakukan recycle. Ke ada? Kalau ada, tolonglah bagitahu aku. Atau mungkin lagi senang kalau kita pergi lawat Sweden untuk menyaksikan fun theory ini dilangsungkan.

Aku sangat tak tahan dengan manusia yang 1) membuang keluar sampah dari kenderaan dengan bersantai-santai, 2) membuang sampah merata-rata sedangkan tong sampah ada sejengkal dengan mereka ini dan 3) membuang angin pus-pus dengan selamba (eh?).

Kenapakah? Kenapakah? Korang ni tak belajar adab ke?

Hebat juga Kerajaan P.Pinang dan boleh dikira tersangat kehadapan di dalam proses ini kerana telah mempromosikan ' Hari Tanpa Beg Plastik '. Padahal kalau kedai-kedai di Kuantan ini, kalau kita cuma mahu membeli roti Gardenia dan sering kali menolak untuk menggunakan plastik, orang jaga kaunter mesti akan, ' takpe dik, free je plastik ni '

!@#$%^&*()#$%^&*!! Ek eleh!

Apakah plastik abang itu bio-degradable ?!

Ayin (seorang graduan Msc in Bio-tech) mengatakan bahawa beg plastik yang boleh dimakan oleh lipas-lipas di Malaysia ini di antaranya adalah beg plastik yang digunakan oleh Superrmarket Jusco. Bermakna, ia adalah beg plastik yang bio-degradable. Bermakna, beg plastik tersebut boleh dilupuskan dari muka bumi ini. Telah aku buktikan dengan kajian aku sendiri bahawa beg plastik Jusco yg diperbuat dari ekstrak soya ada kesan digigit/dimakan oleh lipas-lipas jahanam tu. Kalau macam tuh, takdalah jahanam sangat lipas-lipas tu. Mereka membantu memulihkan bumi. Melainkan kalau lipas-lipas tu gigit beg plastik tu tapi tak telan dan diorang ludah kat longkang maka, itu adalah lipas-lipas yang jahanam. Maaf lipas, bahasa kasar.

Abang aku di dalam penceritaannya berkata, semasa lawatan rangka kerja dua bulan ke Itali beliau amat terkejut apabila mendapati masyarakat Rome membeli-belah barangan dapur dengan membawa luggage bag yang diheret ke hulu ke hilir seperti hendak berangkatan ke daerah yang jauh. Ia adalah pemandangan yang biasa padahal pelik baginya. Ini kerana, jika mereka tidak membawa luggage bag sendiri ketika membeli belah groceries, setiap beg plastik yang digunakan untuk mengisi pembelian barangan akan dikenakan bayaran sebanyak 20 sen duit Itali oleh pihak supermarket. Hanya foreigners sahaja yang dikecualikan daripada undang-undang ini. Wow, adakah kita telah tiba ke tahap tersebut?

Lu fikirlah sendiri!

You think time is just a magazine?

I still cannot believe 2009 will be over in just a few days.

I still remember the time when I was so busy getting *you*, *you* and *you* buying that diary (sadly said, nothing profound written in there) funded by the gang who contributed to Gaza's stripped. I still feel bad about it. A year has gone by, can you believe it ?!

The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot. That's the problem. I'm not such a good pilot myself.

I've wasted enough time not doing things that I should. Hmmm, apakah?


I had snack plate at KF-C over the weekend (I cannot remember the last time I had those chickens) for a must eat quick dinner. It was weird. I was so hungry I could eat a horse but when the chicken reached my mouth, I could hardly swallow. It was oily like a standard KF-C oily. I had goosebumps (the same feeling I got watching those stupid dances in Avatar hahaha) creeping the back of my nape. I cannot believe I felt geli...

... and it hits me then, this must be what Abah had felt all over the years of never liking those chickens. Really, how did I get from the kid that used to luurveee KF-C to an adult that had goosebumps while eating it?

I cannot believe I would say this, but I'm done with KF-C!

You think I'm being sentimental?

Really, don't mind me. It's year end blues. hehe

Somebody check my brain

Last Sunday of the decade.
I just realize tonight that today is the last Sunday of 2009.
Most of the time ticking, it seems that life is very much the same.
The next time I know, it is coming to the end.
I just cannot imagine how fast time flies these days.
It's so weird and scary.
At time like this, there are always plenty of regrets coming down the head.
Only if I wasn't too scared to admit.
What did I achieved that can be count memorable?
If I cannot remember any, it's a sign of nil.
If I have chosen a path, I cannot recall what it is.
If I'm any smarter, this might not be happening.
If I learn anything new it's that death will come to you when you least expect it.
But then again, you never know.
If I'm going to make it next year, I'll be 28 years old.
Too many ifs - a two letter words for futility.

In silence, it's good luck to me.

I will always love you

This video entitled, 'Christian The Lion' was aired on Oprah yesterday morning. The story (in short) is about a lion cub who was raised like a human child by two great friends. And too soon, that lion named Christian was no longer appropriate to be keep in reality world, where human and lion didn't get along walking on the street together. So the boys had to arrange to send their pet to the real world of Africa. A year later, they wanted a reunion with the lion and thought that he wouldnt remember them. They were wrong.

It has some terrific (moral) lesson that would make your eyes shed with tears after finish watching it. I did.

Love knows no limits and true friendship last a lifetime.
Get back in touch with someone today.
You'll be glad you did.

It made a great Facebook advert, don't you think? - Oprah said that, and I couldn't agree more with her. Yes, I should get in touch with some very nice old friends thats gotten lost throughout the coming of age years. I need to find my manual address book.

Or maybe I should just google them in Facebook. I hope they are into the hip of this hi-tech era. Now, who do I have in mind?

First Saturday

A lot of people (Internet journalist whatsoever) had dubbed this decade that is about to bid us farewell is a Decade from Hell (in global text). Yes, look around. If you google hard enough, you would find many stories that might surprise your sentiment. I think it's irony. The more high-tech we've become, the more so-called civilized we would like to think we've become, morality kicking out of the systems slowly. It's bad enough that you don't have any religion to cling on (please, Scientology is totally not included), but morality the basis of goodness in humankind- if you don't believe it, we might eventually live in a world of Avatar (minus the blue people). Oh. Don't get me started on that. But if you want to really know what I think, I ditto-ed every single word in this review. I meant, EVERY WORD.

Exactly 13 days to go for 2010.

What did I achieved ? At this age ? For a decade ?
What is still not achieved ? (really, this is the question?)
What is the biggest thing I did that changed people lives ?

That deserves another entry, if it's worth it.

I'm complaining in a subtle way, kan?

Well, I shouldn't.

If you still don't know what to do with your life for the upcoming year, do yourself a favor and get inspired (like what all of us felt after reading Tuesdays with Morrie) - go read The Last Lecture thanks to Marliza's review (or not). Inspiring like Oprah. Better yet, I just found the lecture in video version. Sad, man.

I didn't have any solid plan for next year, but I think I'll figure it out with a little help from my closed ones. Will you? Lend me a hand?

Takda apa yang menarik di dalam hidup aku sekarang. Tidak ada kisah yang sehebat Badrol Bakhtiar untuk diceritakan. Kalaulah beliau memiliki sebuah blog, pasti aku kan mengirimkan ucapan tahniah kepadanya kerana mengemudi Malaysia ke perlawanan akhir SEA Games. Dia pasti menghantar status twitter terkini beserta gambar keadaan locker room yang chaotic dengan kegembiraan pemain-pemain yang tinggi (?), gelap (?) dan kacak (?) tidak berbaju serta berpeluh busuk. Komen peminat fanatik di ruangan sms Berita Harian : Ada hikmah zaquan kena sakit mata. kalau tidak, mesti Malaysia tak menang. Too funny, man! :D


Mungkin Badrol Bakhtiar sebenarnya memiliki blog, tapi aku tidak berperasaan untuk mengoogle sekarang. Because I tend to digress. Atau beliau mungkin memiliki akaun laman web sosial? Kamu tahu, sudah berbulan-bulan saya menghantar permintaan untuk menjadi kawan kepada Fairuzizuan dengan Zakry Latif . Sibuknya kamu berdua bermain untuk negara, sampai tidak ada masa untuk bersosial di laman web sosial? Tak macam Aaron Aziz, rajin mengemaskini status dirinya di sana sini sedang membuat pengambaran. Oh, Roger Federer pun rajin juga menghantar berita kepada peminatnya yang konon rasa terconnect dengan beliau. Dia ada masa ok? Dan dia adalah pemain no 1 dunia! Jadi Fairuzizuan dan Zakry Latif, apa alasan anda untuk masih tidak menerima persahabatan saya?? Dalam nota lain, Time telah menganugerahkan Detik Sukan Paling Bersejarah 2009 kepada perlawanan akhir Wimbledon di antara Federer dan Roddick. I was there (not literally) to witness it!


Kamu tahu orang-orang yang malas untuk berusaha mencari jawapan? Sentiasa lebih senang bertanya orang daripada berusaha mencari jawapan sendiri. Jawapan aku kepada mereka ialah, UTFG!

It's not me. It's you!

Yang lebih Allah sayang

"Verily we belong to Allah, and to Him we return."
~ Surah Al-Baqarah : 156

You know what is hard? Letting go is hard. Letting someone go is even harder. And I didn't even have a chance to say good bye to you...

Terpana-pana aku bangun dari tidur pagi itu. Missed calls dari sahabat baik kau, dak Ucop cukup memberi cukup klu kepada aku dan dengan berat hatinya ia telah disahkan oleh satu entri di FB perihal pemergian kau buat selama-lamanya. Aku masih tak percaya kau telah pergi meninggalkan kami. Aku redha, sudah tentu, tetapi izinkanlah aku berperasaan begini. Sedang aku tidak menyangka akan berasa begini, begitu pilu dan penuh penyesalan.

Betapa singkatnya masa kita di dunia ini - itulah yang aku fikir sebaik menerima berita kematian kau. Siapa sangka, umur 28 tidak sempat kau lalui. Aku pun, entahkan hari ini atau esok. Hanya Allah yang Maha Mengetahui. Pendeknya masa, 30 hb November aku dikhabarkan berita kau telah dihantar ke hospital dan seminggu kemudian pada 7 Disember, mereka telah membenarkan kau pulang dengan cara yang paling pedih sekali untuk dihadapi oleh orang-orang yang kau tinggalkan.

Status yang kau taip di FB pun cukup mengalirkan air mata aku di sini ketika saat ini.

Every morning i will get a headache...y arrr....
November 25 at 10:55am

Siapalah yang tahu ia bakal menjadi status kau yang terakhir. Siapalah tahu, ia meberi maksud yang lebih tragis dari hanya sedikit sakit kepala.

I just cannot write anymore for I cannot put this tears away.

So it has come to this, I'm letting you go because He love you more. With all my heart, farewell my dear friend. Muhammad Zafuan, semoga Allah merahmati kau sahabatku...

Al-Fatihah
