But doctor said his heart is pumping a little bit slower. So they want to make sure he is alright before he can come home and celebrate Hari Raya. Hee..

Hari Raya is in a few days. I've not get my Selendang. My parents and i went to Tekka to look for it. (Pause) Yeah, I know. Wrong choice of place to go. And No, there's no Selendang to be seen. Sheesh!

Urrgghh! Im hungry. Maybe i'll go somewhere else, to look for my Selendang.

Ok bye!

Nobody is at fault here, i guess. In this case, you cannot blame anybody. Dah tak sehaluan, nak buat macam mana kan? One thing, i've learnt is that, there is such thing as "Your life suddenly come crashing, tumbling down." Heheee.. Y'know what i mean? Like kena demolished like that! Hahaha!

Hope is good. Just keep on hoping and berdoa aje lah. Insyaallah, Doa kamu dikabulkan. Amin.

Maybe i'm a slacker ah.. Take things for granted, i guess. So , don't climb up too high, 'coz when you look down, you can't see a thing. And if you fall, you fall down hard! Ouch! What's worse, you don't die, you'll still be alive feeling the pain from your broken legs, hands, neck, toes, fingers, skull, ribs, nose. Then you'll get side effects, internal bleeding, breathing difficulties, you have to pee in a plastic bag, you can't move!

I may not sound sad, but i am actually. I try so hard not to cry everyday. Oh yes, believe me, i try. This is so unexpected. I'm trying to pull myself together now. And as what i can see, I'm not taking this very well. I need to find somebody to blame, but then again, i don't need to, if it just to make myself feel better, i think it will just make me feel worst!

Like what Tyra Banks said to a girl, whatever her name was, "Take responsibility for yourself!" Who says TV spoils you? Haha! See. I learn something. Hehee.

What I need is time. That's all.

Oh E Ya! Saya baru aje gunting rambut saya yang ikal mayang, panjang dan kering kontang bacin gedaong nak mampoznya, membuat diri saya rasa rimas. Sebab itulah saya gunting, sependek pendek boleh nya. Rambut peten saya, ilham nya datang dari nyonya gunting rambut jugak.. alhamdullillah.. dier pandai menggunting. Kalau tak, saya tak tau macam mana nak kluar rumah, dari tingkap atau pun pintu.

Sekarang dah bulan puasa. Ramai yang dah start batok-batok lah, selsema lah, sakit kepala lah... Kesian. Esok hari Jumaat (wah! sekian lama saya dah tak sebut 'Jumaat' selalu sebut 'Friday', kalau tak pun 'hari-lima'), hari terakhir saya bekerja di IRAS. Saya ngan Hudah pun mula lah, buat lawak sendiri-sendiri, kononnya nak nyanyikan lagu "jangan diucap selamat tinggal, jangan diucap selamat tinggal.." .. lagi lagu "salam akhir, salam yang teristimewa.." ... lagu 60-an pun ada "selamat tinggal pujaan... " Khakahakahakahakh!! Tak boleh tahan! Asyik gelak aje kat keje! Supervisor pun sampai bisu dah, melihat gelagat gelagat saya dengan Hudah.

Yang best sekali, bila tikus yang bulunya kaler hitam, berlari-lari kat office! Saya dan Karen pun ikot berlari bersama, jauh dari tikus itu. Itu 1st time kiter berdua berlari lari anak, disebabkan oleh auntie kat sebelah pekik. Tapi tikusnya tak kelihatan. Ok takpe. Saya pun kembali ke kerusi saya dan sambung kerja menaip. Karen masih disebelah saya, masih enggan kembali ke cubicle-nya. Baru seminit saya dudok, saya toleh ke kanan, saya pun tanpa berlengah lengah lagi, angkat kaki yang beralaskan selipar pink, seribu cubicle, dengan kertas kerja sekali! Tak sempat nak taruk kertas! Kerusi pun belum panas! Sebab apa. Tikus hitam tu berlari ke arah saya! Nampak gaya memang tikus itu ketakutan.. lari pun lintang pukang, tak tentu arah! Kalau dier takot, saya lagi takot! Ishk. Yang si Karen dah panjat kerusi! Yang saya heran, kenapa lah saya pandai sangat tak panjat kerusi jugak? Kenapa mesti lari?? Jauh pulak tu saya lari! Nasib baik selipar tak putos. Bila saya lari staff yang lain mula heboh! Staff yang dibelakang saya entah kenapa kerusi nya kurang selesa agaknya, lalu menukar tempat dudok nya ke atas meja pulak! Kahahhahahahaha!!! Yang lagi satu angkat seluar! Ingat banjir ke!!?? Tak leh tahan!!

Kesian tikus tu.. Tikus tu saiz nya sebesar mouse komputer pembaca sekalian. Tak besar.

tikus oh tikus kenapa engkau lari
macam mana aku tak lari, aku takot ngan manusia.
manusia oh manusia kenapa kau takotkan tikus
aku tak takutkan kan tikus, tikus yang takut kan aku.

ceh ceh.. macam betol je.. like my father usually say "Pege Dah!!"

You need to have a very good imagination to figure out or naturally figure out or interpret or whatever you think that particular act is about. Its all up to you. Some are obvious, some are not. Or, you can just simply enjoy and be amazed at the agility of the acrobats.

The first question that pops out in my head was, "Who is that headless person suppose to be?"

Yes. That headless fella. That's what Quidam is all about. Go catch it to experience the great drama, great musical and great acts.. the Cirque Du Soleil way!

Anyway, the environment was cool. Live band. Can you just imagine? Live band? And it sounded like a recorded music. And of course, accompanied by a singer who also sang live! And again, he sounded like a record. My goodness gracious! Well, I know, Siti Nurhaliza can also sing live. But then again, everybody is expecting acrobats swinging on ropes, hoola-hoops etc.. and of course there will be music to add the spice to make sure that the audience ended up having their mouth-opened, fully opened, in a middle of the show. You know, the drum rolls, the clashing of cymbols, the funny clown music etc. But who was expecting live music? Helzie was like "Hey, the band is at the back!" It's not an orchestra, it's just a band.

It's a spectacular show. Worth all the money lah.. and the SGD4.00 dollars Ice Mountain! HAhahahhaha! I definitely wasn't expecting that! Sheesh!
Anyway, I got this as a souveneir.

It's a keychain. Silver, heavy and cool.

I'm a music person, I love their music.. music lovers out there, you guys should get their cds if you are into musicals. Y'know what i mean?

And my favourite act was the Statue, followed by the German Wheel and lastly the Contortion.

Statue is just so beautiful.

The introduction was grand and yet you can still see elements of art in it. It was breathtaking. Come to think of it, the performance was breathtaking and engaging right from the start. Simply breathtaking. I have no other vocabulary to describe the event. It's a WOW. A slow and quiet Wow with a lot of air in it.. like WHAAOOW. Y'know what i mean.

Why am i so impressed by the Johor Cultural Extravaganza is because, I've never seen such a fine, amazing, full of energy choreography of malay dance in Singapore. And all was focus on tarian Zapin.
That's one reason.

I'm sorry to say this, but, the tarian here, like those concert Hari Raya that we had for the past few years, or whatever tarian performance we've seen on stage, in school, public, wherever, is nothing compared to JCE! That's another reason.

When the concert started, my eyes was glued to the stage instantly! I was in awe! My mouth was wide open! It was amazing right from the very beginning!!

It wasn't a very grand opening, but it was enough to get my eyes glued. And I somehow managed to say this to Moly in a not so whisperish tone, "Wah! Moly! Cantik nye, Moly!".

Another interesting part was when they dance the slow dance, it was the slowest dance i've ever seen! Although it's slow, but yet, it's not dull, it's interesting! In fact, the dance actually made the audience see that, this is how Lelaki Melayu Terakhir should be. Sopan, tarta-tertib, menunjukkan gaya kemelayuan dan kelelakian dan hormat pada wanita. Just by dancing they can reached out to the audience and tell them whatever i've said earlier. Yang penari perempuan pun lembut aje. Tak leh tahan seh! It was a touching moment for Moly and me. We suddenly feel that we want to stay kat Kampong. Somewhere deep inside, we want to be treated that way. but, oh well....

Jejaka-jejaka yang menari semua pulak tu handsome. Zuraidah said that "actually diorang tak handsome, tapi sebab diorang pakai baju melayu yg buat diorang handsome!". Their faces are like, all the Mats in Singapore, but when they dance, Wow!! And they are all Malaysians! And when they dance, Fuhh! Semangat kemelayuan menyerlah. And mind you, their baju melayu is not really as glamourous as whatever we have in Singapore. Kampong style. Kain Songket, Kain Pelekat, Songkok Tinggi, Baju Telok Blangah (for the men), Baju Kurong (for the ladies). And yet it is pleasing to the eye. Not many glitters or high-heel shoes, or manly black shoes. Bare foot.

What i'm trying to say is that, if you observe, you can actually differentiate which is the one dancing for the love of culture and be proud of it, and which is the one dancing for the sake of performing and at the same time trying to be glamourous. Y'know what i mean?

It was a superb night! It changed my perception towards Malaysian's tarian and Singapore's. I thought Singapore was good. Sriwana, Sriwarisan and all others. But, in fact, there are better people out there, that can actually purely and sincerely dance and blend and respect the culture all at once with the music. You just have to be someone who really love the culture to actually dance very well and beautifully and you need a very talented choreographer to make sure that the dance can and will bring out the message that you are trying to send out to the audience.

Previous entry shows some pictures of the concert, but then again, you have to be there to experience the night. Again, i will say it was a superb night. Thumbs Up! I would give 5 Stars rating. Very Well Done! And if you notice, i didn't say anything about Siti Nurhaliza's appearance. The Tarian alone was awesome.

Yo yo! Wassup Bloggers! Falah and I met yesterday at TM, caught Bewitched and had ourselves Neoprint-ed! It was Falah's idea, so i just went along, thinking, Why not?, and the results are clear!

Falah, with her cool hairstyle and sporty adidas jacket, while me, with my brown jacket, white t-shirt, jeans and white shoes. And we Realise that we resembles our Idols! LOL! Falah, idolizes the rocker, Sylvester Sim and for me, definitely Taufik Batisah!!

Falah, with her hairdo like Sly, short and fringe touching the eyes, should have hold a guitar and wear a black glove! And I should complete my look with the cool hat, Taufik always have.

Kehkehekhekhekhek!! Shiok Sendiri sak! S.S! Wait a minute. It's Triple S! S.S.S! Lol!

We were both laughing our hearts out when we saw our pics during the decoration session, that is, before the pics was printed out.

It was kind of a coincidence, bcoz i was bragging about Taufik, appearing and singing in the NDP Finale. And Falah was, disagreeing with me, bcoz Sly made it to the singing class first in the first episode of Shooting Stars. Heheheh!

Anyway, Taufik and Sly will be at IMM this Saturday, 13 August 2005, at 1.30pm, for an autograph session or some sort. So Singapore Idol fans, you guys can catch them there! Bring down that Idol poster of yours from your wall, bring it to IMM, and have them Autographed. That's one thought.

Well, i was smiling all the way. Bcoz of both: the handsome lifeguards and the blood-chilling, heart-throbbing, mind-bogling, water-splashing, teeth-biting rides!

But i wasn't really surprise to see handsome, hunky-looking, tanned-bodied lifeguards with shades sitting around the pool in red shorts and white sleeveless tees, with their safety buoy in their hands. Maybe bcoz they are expected to be good looking. Just like in the movies. Yes, i did a little of ogling-activity, but was not either surprise or excited or worst, drool, for that matter.

Well, don't look at me that way. Helzie kept eyeing the voluptuous ang-moh lady, in hot-pink bikini. No doubt that she have nice bosom and buttocks. Erotic thoughts was playing in his head everytime she's in his view. He's so transparent sometimes. But that means, i'm safe. He'll be a bit 'off' if he wasn't.

Yeah.. The scariest ride i took was the Samsung Slide-Up. My goodness!! My head almost came off, my heart almost stopped, my breath almost ran out bcoz i was screaming all the way! When i was queueing, i didnt hear any screams, so I thought that, well, it is not going to be that bad, y'know. And once i was sliding down, yeah right!! So much for the it-is-not-going-to-be-that-bad thought. And now, i'm having cramps in my neck area and waist and arms. Cramps seems to be everywhere!

But everything was great. I had fun. I needed a break anyway. Maybe due to the screaming that makes me feel so much better now. I've been wanting to scream since y'know when! Heheheheh!!

Ok lah. Im tired. Now is another best part. Rest and fall asleep in my comfy bed.

As you can see, these nice people, gave me a gift along with a pop-up card with bears and flowers decorating it. On the front there's 2 bears, i think it's paddington bear, but they are not brown, and it says "Just For You" with green background. Inside, the 2 paddington bears pop-up with or on a bouquet of flowers. There's glitters on the flowers. It's beautiful. I'm touched. At the sides, there are shop stamp from both TPY1 and TPY2 (i come from TPY4), accompanied by their signatures and that note i said earlier.

I'm gonna put this right on my work table. There! Thank you so much! HUGS!!

Stay handsome always. You too, take care of your companion (wife). Maybe hopefully, one day, u'll be a stylo-mylo designer.

Helzie's graduation is coming. So he actually needed something to wear. So we both went to U2 at bishan J8 during my dinner break which happens to be 45 minutes only. Shortage of time it is, but we still managed to get himself a nice outfit. Alright, alright. I chose the outfit, both pants and jacket. He got the good looks, I got the good fashion sense (not that i don't have the looks -winks-), everything went perfectly perfect. And as usual, pockets were burnt. But it was worth it though. I didnt want him to look bad on his graduation day. Who would, right? Not to him lah, personally i meant.

Ok. So everbody is happy today. Especially Helzie.

I would like to share my experience with you so that you guys out there will try to learn from this. Only if u get what i mean.
I was working lah as usual and this few scenarios happened to me.
Auntie: Excuse me, Miss. Tomorrow the sale still have?
I replied: Yes.
Auntie: Oh. Aiyah! Tomorrow then can come also lah!
I smiled and continue with my work. 10 minutes later i turn back and noticed that the Auntie was still hanging around in the shop.
Kwa Kwa Kwa~~

We have a room for staff. And at the door clearly stated "Store. Staff Only". And we caught a few jokers trying to go in.
Kwa Kwa Kwa~~

Auntie: Miss, I want size 34.
I replied: We only have size, 30, 32 ,36, Miss.
Auntie: I want 34.
I replied: No 34, Miss. Only 30, 32, 36.
Auntie: 34?
I am not a very patient girl, but i do try. I had to do something. So I implemented something to the tone just to make sure it went through her head. Or ears for that matter.
I replied: Miss. 34 don't have.
Auntie: Oh ok.
Kwa Kwa Kwa~~

Auntie: Miss, got size M?
I replied: S only, Miss.
Auntie: M?
Kwa Kwa Kwa~~

Moral of the story.... what do you think?

P/S: If you are trying to be or pretending to be a Tai-Tai, please try not to enter a budget-retail shop which is having sale and discounted prices every time you walk pass, 'coz you may walk out of the shop not satisfied. So prevention is better. Anyway, a real Tai-Tai don't buy on-sale items or low class brands, right?

Well, I got this from someone close, -You point one finger, three fingers will point back at you-. There is such thing as phychiatrist, y'know. Shrugs. Anyways, you are old, having problems, and dying soon, so i think i prefer to see u suffer in pain slowly rather then killing you myself by dropping those heavy boxes on your almost-balding-head with hair dyed in red which was originally supposed to be white. Opps! I shouldn't have said that, should I? I'm sorry. But you are such a slow learner. All you see is money. You even fight over 10 cents?
Oh please..

Money. The source of all evil. SHeesh! When you really scrutinized those coloured papers, they are actually just papers. And here we are, including me, keep thinking of ways to get money, money, money. Wishing that one day, money will fall from the sky.
Oh please..

And young people nowadays, thinks they're cool.
Oh please..

Girls trying very hard to look pretty, boys trying very hard to look hot. Hahahahaha! When i was their age, honestly, i have very low, super duper low, seld-esteem. Why? My family is not poor, i come from an average income family, my family loves me, i have loads of frens, 10, 20 or more!... Now... hah!... my really good friends are left with less than 5. Why? Hahahahhaha!! Its not funny. I remember those days when i went out with a group of girl frens in school uniform, to meet boys who i dun even know, telling myself that maybe i can make new frens. And maybe they will like me. Hah!! Fat hope! Now, to think again, it was a waste of my time! Hahahahahahaha!! Its not funny. What happen then? Of course, my girl frens got the attention. You see kids, peer pressure can lead you to become crazy like me. At least, i've tried my best not to turn myself into a serial killer, wearing a white mask and a black cape and hood, holding a nicely shaped and curved dagger with black hilt, every night.

Helzie and I tried Thai Express together. We ate the fried rice which we both don't even know how to pronounce in Thai language. And then Helzie order the drink which he named himself, "The girlish drink", just bcoz it's reddish and pinkish in colour. We went to Esplanade branch and the waiter who served us was quite attractive. Well, to me at least. We had the fiery vegetable soup. Very fiery. But it was quite salty. Tukang masak tak sabar nak kahwin agaknya. Well, anyway, we enjoyed the dishes, we took a short walk to the mini amphitheatre later on, and listen to nice music played by an oldie band. Literally oldie. And they played very nice music although they were holding almost, i think, about a hundred years old guitar.

Helzie snapped this pic in the esplanade hall. The place where they displayed the art work and all. So, guess, going up or going down?

Earlier in the day, we watched The Amityville Horror. Yup. Horror it is. I shall not spoil the story for those who are going to catch it.
