Kerjaya Selepas Bersara...














" Kerjaya Selepas Bersara?".. itulah salah satu soalan yang telah diutarakan oleh bekas majikan I tempoh hari. I wasn't sure how to answer that one. I wanted to just write " Biarlah Rahsia " but I hate to insult the person who's going to read that as part of my introduction during the coming function.
You all might be wondering what the two photos have got to do with the topic being discussed? Well, they kind of answer the question being asked. What I do selepas bersara is visiting these two places. One I called the Input station, the other the Output station. Both involved counters and waiting chairs.
The IS is worth waiting for whereas the OS is worth going to because it keeps me happy when I am at home. Kalau tak dilawati on time nanti banyak kemudahan yang akan dihentikan. Itulah basically what I do after retirement. Now, how do I put that in words to answer the question post to me by my ex-employer in order to make me look GOOD when they read my biodata (as they call it ) out loud....
p/s hari ni tak payah masak for lunch kerana telah mendapat bekalan dari teman semalam..terima kasih ya!

What I saw....

Last Tuesday I followed MAH to Ipoh for one of her meetings with a local agency there. The drive was slow at the early part of the journey due to the kesesakan at MRR2, lepas tu it was 140-150km/hr. She was supposed to meet them at 10.00am tapi we were still 15km from Simpang Pulai exit at 9.45am, hence the speed.

At the exit we were escorted by our Ipoh GFO ( girlfriend ooiii ) to the designated place(which is Pejabat Tanah or something ) instead we ended up at Ipoh museum ( bukan salah GFO, long story). The meeting was postponed to 2.30pm and the PA lupa nak bagitahu. Anyway ada hikmahnya 'cos we got to spend sometime with our GFO and visited her business place. I had the opportunity to do some catching up with some local dramas at her place while waiting for MAH to finish her meeting.

We drove back to KL at about 5.30pm in some sunshine and heavy rain on the highway throughout the 3 hours journey. Here are some shots that I took to share with those interested...


We got to witness a strange looking car (having some metal stuck to it's back ), a rainbow and ,in Ipoh town, a cave .

p/s We would like to thank our Ipoh-mate for having to spend the day with us. Hope it wasn't too agonising ;-))

Satu malam yang gilang gemilang....


Apakah yang sedang ditonton oleh jejaka-jejaka matang ini?

Apakah agaknya yang sedang bermain dalam fikiran masing-masing?

Apa-apa pun kita hanya mampu tertanya-tanya..semuanya telah selesai dengan jayanya.

Pesara turut mengaminkan doa yang telah dibaca.


p/s sayangnya tak ada gambar yang berkaitan dengan tajuk...

The reality is...

Some of us would like to think that increasing in age does not mean that we are getting old but just more experienced. We refuse to accept that changes will be taking place to or in us that we cannot avoid or improve. Bila dah sampai masa tu kita kenalah terima hakikat yang usia telah melewati ( atau melawati ) kita.

Just to share an example of what age will do to someone for a start.....














walau pun dapat dikaburi usia sebenar dengan mekap dan pakaian mau pun ubat-ubatan tapi hakikatnya bila hendak membaca , reading glasses wajib dipakai juga....renungkanlah!

Dari PSSN...

Tinggal beberapa minit lagi siaran langsung pernikahan Siti ( yang diminati ) dengan Khalid ( yang masih belum dikenali ). Walau pun ramai teman dan taulan yang masih meragui perkahwinan ini tapi I have long time ago ( actually after the announcement.. ) accepted it.

Bukan nak bermukaddimah pagi-pagi ni tapi hanya sekadar berkongsi pendapat. Kita sepatutnya percaya dan yakin pada jodoh yang telah ditentukan olehNya kepada kita. Whatever it is, only time will tell. But I believe there's no such thing as the wrong choice ( how can it be, when it comes from God ) only who has God chosen for us to face everything and everyone he has install for us before we face death. Kalau bahagia, maka itulah yang dijanjikan Allah SWT kepada kita , tapi kalau sebaliknya , maka itulah ujian yang telah ditentukan olehNya jua. Kita sebagai hambanya kenalah menghadapi dan redha dengan Qada dan Qadar yang tertulis.

Penulisan hari ini I tujukan khas buat Siti Nurhaliza dan Khalid Mohamad Jiwa, dengan ucapan "Selamat Pengantin Baru, Semoga dapat menempuhi segala yang tertulis dengan tabah dan mendapat keredhaanNya."

Baru sahaja selesai upacara perkahwinan Siti dengan Khalid tadi so I nak put a few shots of the wedding ceremony untuk diabadikan dalam blog ini.. tapi dah try beberapa kali tak boleh download pula . Oh well, 1 keping nii pun kira memadailah .


p/s Selamat Pengantin Baru juga pada my nephew Wan Hasnuddin Wan Hassan dengan pasangannya pada 18 Ogos 2006.

Buat Abang Joe...

Walau pun kita bawa videocam it was not functioning at the last minute..so these are just 3 of the shots I got using my trusted mobile phone. As they say.. this one's for you !!

Introducing the models for Winnie the Pooh...












Aksi models yang sempat dirakam dalam suasana kelam kabut. Seorang tu sibuk nak main dengan minyak urut sementara yang seorang lagi is trying to get it from her. As for the youngest of the models, she's just trying to survive through the whole ordeal of having to put on something that's too big for her at the moment.

Abe dan Kakak pun nak juga guna blog CikSu untuk ucapkan "Selamat Hari Lahir untuk Mama pada hari ini . Semoga Mama dipanjangkan umur dan dimurahkan rezeki. Kami tak sabar nak tunggu kedatangan Adik .









Kami juga berjanji akan jaga Mama macam mana Mama jaga nenek bila besar nanti. Mama jangan risau ya!"

7.08.06


Hari ni hari jadi mummy Maya. Maya mintak CikSu tuliskan dalam blog dia yang Maya nak ucapkan " Selamat Hari Lahir ke dot dot dot kat Mummy, Semoga Allah SWT panjangkan usia dan murahkan rezeki Mummy supaya boleh jaga Maya sampai dewasa ".

Tidak lupa juga Maya ucapkan " Selamat Hari Lahir kepada Yu besok, 8.08.06, sama jugak macam Mummy semoga panjang umur dan di murahkan rezeki. Nanti hari jadi Maya, Yu, kak Maisarah, Abe dan adik boleh datang KL sambut birthday Maya kat swimming pool ya.."











Ni gambar Maya ambik ( masa Autumn ) kat Paris masa bercuti ngan Mummy dan Daddy tahun lepas. Nampak tak daun kekuningan kat pokok tuu dan belakang tu nampak Eifel Tower..hehehe

Just my thots....

Hari ni genap 7 bulan I menjalani kehidupan sebagai pesara. Tak terasa pun begitu cepat masa berlalu. So I guess things must have been good for me. Like they say " Time flies when you are having fun".
Apa fun yang I had for today? This morning I was on my way to pay one of the many bills that made their way into my pigeon-hole. I was in my denim jeans ( I rasa fesyen pipe-line ke something ) driving and listening to light and easy channel. Terasa macam berada di zaman 80's. Syok rasanya bila memandu with just a few cars on the road ( no jam or kaya ) while listening to lagu zaman muda2 dulu. Harap2 my readers can imagine that situation. Kalau zaman 8oan dulu takde pulak the luxury to drive at that hour to go to the shopping complex. Lesen memandu pun takde lagi until 1986 kut.
Satu lagi cerita yang nak dikongsi oleh pesara ini is semasa I kat Carrefour getting some food at the counter, I had to ask the staff to put the price tag on the item that I just bought. I saw one woman ( with her back to me, cos she was putting something in the oven ) so I called out " Dik dik tolong kira ni ". Semenjak jadi pesara ni I feel that I'm older than most staff kat Carrefour tu, but bila dia berpaling to take my barang, she was definitely much older than me. She was of course, smilling happily. I can't help but feel older than most people sebab sekarang dah ada ramai cucu.
Sambung balik, in the car while driving back to my place my mind was wondering how many people get to enjoy what I have right now. Whenever I meet people that knows me, they will be asking what I have been doing sepanjang masa pencen ni. I tried to tell them but somehow I feel that whatever I say is not the whole truth. This is because people only want to know what physical ( or tangible ) things that you do with your life. The emotional and spiritual aspects are never highlighted. My retirement is more for these reasons. To be free to wonder about things and feelings. To think about what makes your life meaningful to you. How to be a better person or how to always be thankful with what you have...etc. This is something that you can't explain to people because you cannot set a schedule for such things ( at least not for me ). That's what my early retirement is all about.... ( ada jugalah kekadang tu memikirkan hal seperti, kenapa CT memilih Khalid bila terpandang lelaki yang sebaya dengan kita kat mana2 tu...hehehe )

p/s ..itu saja for now, kalau panjangkan jemu pula membacanya....
bila I cerita pasal pakai seluar apa tu, bukan bererti itu saja yang I pakai masa tu ya ;-))

Where did I eat last week....


Being a pensioner, last week I had the chance to have my food at two totally different eating places. Satu was hot and dusty and the other was cool and cosy.

The first is an eating cafeteria at UPSI, Tanjung Malim. Stopped by at the students' canteen to have my lunch while waiting for MAH to finish her meeting at the ICT building. On the way back bought some "pau istimewa" dari Tanjumg Malim.

The second is at a Cafe in Hotel Renaissance, Kelantan. Had breakfast alone while MAH is at an exhibition in Balai Islam. On the way back brought home Alya to her parents in Shah Alam. Now that she's beginning to walk, she refused to let her aunt Nieza sit but instead walked with her all over the place at KB airport's waiting room.

Hari Penentuan..

This morning I heard over the radio yang Siti akan bagi press conference berkenaan dengan perkahwinan dia and it's going to be live on TV3 melalui rancangan Wanita Hari Ini. Sebaik saja orang-orang lain tersedar mengenai hal ini, my phone tak henti-henti di hujani sms telling me to watch tv3 at 12.00 noon. Messages datang sejauh Kota Bharu, Kelantan. I did not get this much messages masa menyambut my birthday last year.. hahaha

Nampaknya Cik Siti kita begitu sinonim dengan blogger ni . Apa-apa tentang Siti mesti dikongsi bersama dengan peminat yang satu ni. Terima kasih semuanya ya. Semua perancangan untuk pagi ni ditunda ke besok because I want to be infront of my tv at 12.00 noon today. Masa sedang menonton pun masih lagi dihujani sms , panggilan telefon dan juga pertanyaan online melalui Yahoo Messenger. Terasa diri ini sama seperti wartawan dalam tv yang sedang menunggu ketibaan Siti dan rombongannya ..hahaha

At about 12.45 tgh tadi semua teka-teki pun terjawab. Again, reaksi kawan2 dan kaum keluarga diterima melalui sms dan online. Mixed reactions yang diterima, ada kecewa, tak terkejut, tak kisah, menyampah but my own reaction is terkilan tapi redha dengan apa yang disampaikan.

Itulah saja laporan untuk diabadikan dalam blog ini mengenai apa yang bersejarahnya tentang 17 Julai 2006. Untuk bakal pengantin " Selamat Pengantin Baru ( dan beberapa kali Baru ) , semoga berkekalan hingga ke Akhirat ( bukan akhir hayat) "

More joy!!

At 11.03am on 16th July 06 another baby girl was force out of her cozy home into this world. Welcome into the family baby girl!! ( without a name yet, sebab kedatangan yang tak disangka sangka ). Anyway, Congtratulations to Mama and Papa Alya and Alya ( big sis ) for the new addition.
Kata Si anak kecil " Harap2 kakak dan mak sepupu ku tak hot kat aku sebab sampai lebih awal ni, risaunya! "

Beginilah rupa kakak dan mak sepupu bila menerima kabar berita kehadiran another baby in the family.

Si Kakak berkata " Apa!! Dah datang . Alya dah jadi Kakak??? Cepatnyer!" dan sahut Si Mak Sepupunya " Aiik, Maya bukan lagi yang termuda? Apa kita nak buat kat budak ni?? Baik fikir cepat2 kita dah takde masa ni, dia dah sampai pun. Ingatkan bulan depan "

My weekend with turtles..

What can I share with you about the turtle trip to Ma' Daerah? Yang pastinya pada trip itu I was down with flu and fever. The bas trip was too cold for me. Half way thru' I had to get down to get my jacket.
Bila sampai kat Kerteh we were picked ( or packed macam sardin )up by our friend cum facilitator, Cik Rahayu, in her Ford Frontier. There were 5 of us ( 2 XL, 1L and 2M ) dan bagasi masing2. The trip to the turtle santuary takle jauh sangat, so tak kisahlah bersesak sikit tu. Thank you driver!
Sampai sana we were introduced to our lodging for the weekend. Tak payahlah I describe macam mana nanti tengok gambar2 ya ( kita akan bagi dalam bentuk yahoo fotopage bila dah dapat semuanya ).
Aktiviti yang disediakan memang interesting and exciting, cuma I saja yang takleh enjoy fully sebab keadaan kesihatan waktu itu. Anyway I tried my best to be in every activities eventhough not fully. Antaranya tidur di pantai till midnight while waiting for puan penyu to finish bertelor; standing in the 12tgh hot sun recording the number of UD ( undeveloped ) and UH (un hatched ) eggs and don't forget enduring the "sweet" smell of rotten eggs ( thank god I had the flu ) and having to be all alone in the long-house one night (sebab demam) while the rest went to look at another laying egg process. Tapi semuanya memberi pengalaman yang berharga at the end of it all.
I also had the opportunity to get to know an energetic 69 year old Muslim British woman, Zaharah ( or Patricia ) whose life is so colourful. You can listened to her stories for hours ( if there was nothing else to do lah ).
Lastly, for those of you yang interested to attend such programme, bolehlah melayari www.wwf.com.my for more information. I memang rekomen pun.

Gambar menunjukkan aktiviti mengeluarkan telor dari lubangnya untuk dikira jumlah yang menetas, tidak menetas, tidak menjadi dan yang dimusnahkan oleh predator. Tengoklah ramai yang menutup hidung menahan bau wangi hehe..Ada juga yang masih boleh tersenyum...

Today a small part of me died....


Today I got up as usual ready for my morning exercise at Titiwangsa tapi my exercise buddy kata dia tak sihat ( she hasn't been well for the last couple of days ) so tak pergilah. Since I'm all dressed up and ready to go OUT of my apartment ( but it's still dark outside ) so I decided to do my news reading earlier than usual.
To my horror ( and I meant HORROR ) there it was, berita yang paling ditakuti, Datuk K merisik Siti ( terus rasa tak selera nak breakfast nasi lemak ). Baru semalam I was trying to tell myself ( and friends at IMR ) it's not true BUT I'm still hoping till now as I'm writing this, that she will tolak the pinangan.
Anyway, I'm sure alot of my people would like to know my opinion ( or at least that's what I thot ). Like I always say, when it comes to loving a MAN, there's this gene ( I named it the S gene ) that otherwise lay dormant in women, gets activated and not only that it's activity is also enhanced. It doesn't happen in all women but in some unfortunate ones. What this gene does when activated is, it suppresses a few good and beneficial genes ( such as the ability to be clever, to make good judgement to name a few.. ). So these women will never see things or react to situations the way they use to before they were infected with this disease called love. As for the few fortunate ones even when infected, is able to keep the S gene inactivated because they have a double dose of LHG ( level headed gene ). Siti oh Siti....
p/s so you single women out there ( in Datuk K's age group ) now you can go after Dr F since he is available hehehe...( provided the news is true )

20062006

That's right! Today is the 20th June 2006. What an interesting number but takde pula anything interesting to lapor with it. Just nak abadikan this date in my blog.


May be you guys can share with me if there's anything interesting happening with you or to you. Takde juga ke? Ok, hari ni I went to try the new ( well may be not so new.. ) Italian pasta at Pizza Hut. Ada empat jenis tapi I only try 2, satu tu dipanggil Prawn Olio and the other Carbonara. The prawn dalam Prawn Olio rasa macam yang terdapat dalam MAS flight ( dry and tasteless ) tapi the pasta was ok. The carbonara was just ok for my taste. Anyway, rasa2nya tak nak order lagi makanan tu kalau pergi Pizza Hut the next time.


Ini jawapan untuk teka bende hari tu......tahniah kepada yang dapat menjawab dengan betul tu ( lepas bertungkus lumus memerhati barang2 dalam rumah ni... hehe )

Happy Birthday to a Future Father!

We celebrated another birthday yesterday at Pantai Hillpark, Apartment 1-19-4. This time the birthday of a future father ( tapi tak le that soon ), known to two little baby girls who adore him as Uncle Joe. What is so special about this particular birthday celebration was that the two birthday cakes were made by uncle joe himself. That's right, one was oreo cheese cake and the other was chocolate cake. Here's a picture of a piece of the oreo cheese cake. We did not bring back home the other cake so no picture of that one!
We were served only cakes ( and tea ) until the owner came home with KFC. Uncle Joe said since he invited us during tea time so that's the reason why he served only tea and cakes. By the way we love the cakes ;-)).
It was then time to open the birthday present. There were sooo many presents ( 20, 200 or was it only 2 hahaha ) but I will only show you one ( cos that's the only one I took photo for remembrance ).
Once again Happy Birthday Uncle Joe ( 18.06.06 )!!

Apa nii??

Senyap sikit rasanya minggu ni, after the weekends yang agak hectic. I had some family members over at my place and we watched AF concert together. Satu interesting developement yang I nak share with you guys is that I now am able to control my cucu tersayang from doing what she normally loves doing ( masih terbayang jelingan tajam yang dilemparkan semasa kena tegah dari membuat sesuatu yang dia idamkan ..hehehe ).
What's up with everybody? I guess back to your " wonderful " work place. Nothing much happening around here though. Dah lama tak buka any books to read. Kalau nak membaca tu rasa macam pening kepala sikit ( may be I need to change my glasses ). Tapi walau pun pening untuk membaca buku, I masih lagi bertahan untuk membaca blog kekawan and famili yang ada di internet ni. Ada yang menghiburkan dan tak kurang juga yang memberi pengetahuan dan best of all semuanya merapatkan silatulrahim. Ini yang paling important leaving in this chaotic environment ( not in the berperang sense for Malaysia but still alot of rushing here and there ). Nasib baik ada internet, kalau tak pesara ni mesti mati kutu dibuatnya..hehehe ( kalau pesara mati kutu , adalah yang takut kena kacau.. )
Anyway, ni nak bagi teka bende lagi sebab dah lama tak ada. Cubalah masa boring2 tu, senang aje kut...

p/s selain dari internet, the credit should also go to AF for making my life more enjoyable..

Alya is 1 year old today 6 June 2006. TokSu nak rakamkan sesuatu kat blog ni so bila Alya dah besar nanti bolehlah Alya baca sendiri ya ( mama bolehlah tunjukkan, hopefully it's still available masa tu )..

2. Jaga adik ( or adik2 ) baik-baik seperti seorang Kak Long yang bertanggung-jawab ya.
3. Sayang keluarga yang lain ( lebih2 lagi nenek Alya tuu ) seperti mana mereka sayangkan Alya.
See how you have grown....

It's makan time again...

Yesterday we had two majlis makan-makan involving the Ishak family, satu at Bukit Subang and the other at Shah Alam.

Ni nak cerita serba sedikit acara kat rumah staf hematologilah sebab ramai di antara pelawat blog ini terdiri dari orang2 IMR.

It started with the delivery of the catered food ( also from another imr staff ), tapi sorrylah tak ambik gambar the delivery boy tu ( kalau tak , adalah yang dapat melepaskan kerinduan hehe ) at around 3.45pm. Lepas tu ketibaan our first guest from imr, Puteri (pjn, tanpa gelaran ) and Kam ( yang disangkakan BF nya oleh ahli keluarga Ishak yg tak mengenali beliau ;-0)at around 4.10pm. Oleh kerana lama sangat menunggu tetamu lain tak kunjung tiba so we started the party, which looked like this ( meriah gila....hahaha)

Then at about 5.30pm barulah the another imr staff, other family members ( with kids ) started to arrived and a few of the neighbouring TNB families. We ate, talked ( or gossip), laughed and took photos. Itulah ceritanya ..oh yes, some of the guests ( only one actually ) became intoxicated by the "wildness" of a 1 year old's birthday party ( guess who??)...



Kalau ada sesiapa yang nak ambik jadi anak angkat bolehlah.. hehehe

p/s Happy 1st Birthday Wan Nur Alya Qistina Yeah!!! ( tengoklah mak sepupunya Maya pun tumpang sekaki potong kek ... )

This morning...

Pagi ni kol lapan dah tengok tv, channel 70. All because of American Idol. Biasanya the tv kat ruang tamu is only on at 9.00am for The Oprah show. Dalam tengah syok tengok persembahan budak2 AI tu tiba2 keluar message " You are not subcribe to this channel..." or something like that. Bengkek gila. Cepat2 call Astro. Another episode of bengkekness asyik dengar advertisement aje. When I finally got to talk to someone ( after 10 minutes, I rasalah ) the channel dapat balik. What was the problem? Kata dia, kita sedang refresh..." something like that, arrgghhh!!! For those yang tak tahu Taylor Higgs is the new AI ( he looks too old and too weird to be an idol ).
Anyway, sebagaimana yang dijanjikan kepada yang bertanya ( bertalu-talu ) jawapan kepada teka benda terbaru kita ialah :

Kertas kat belakang tu untuk avoid the glare from the mirrors kat belakang ya!

P/S masa menulis ni kedengaran lagu " Hanya Memuji " . Teringatkan seseorang yang suka sangat lagu ni kerana membawa erti yang tersendiri. BTW, apa dah jadi ngan jejaka idaman tu sekarang?? ( yang terasa boleh tak bagi jawapan )

Tuesday, May 23, 2006

What's up?

Hi ! It's that time again. The time when there's nothing to share and yet you don't want to be forgotten. What's up with you guys ?

So, macam biasalah kita ada teka benda lagi sekali. Kali ini lebih senang dari yang lepas, I think.

Tak lama lagi June is coming. There's some important dates to remember in June apart from birthdays, my driving licence dies in June and I have to do some blood tests for my next appointment. Oh yes, there's also the turtle thing which, among other tasks involve patrolling the 1.7km beach at 8.30pm or 1.00am ( depending on your shift ). That's alot to look forward to this June.

p/s I'll tell you more about that when it's over. Have fun guessing!

Thursday, May 18, 2006

Dan jawapannya ialah......

Hi! I'm back from KB. Banyak interesting events berlaku di kampung tapi what is more exciting is what we encountered on the way back from LCCT ( tapi sayangnya telah dirosakkan oleh TV1 ). Anyway I still want to share what the excitement was all about.


Masa kita on the road tu kita bertembung dengan lori treler (yang selalu bawak kereta2 baru ke sesuatu destinasi )membawa beberapa kereta baru. Yang peliknya kereta2 tersebut ditutup dengan plastik. So being a researcher, by nature, perasaan ingin tahu tu pun tertrigger. I knew then ini mesti kereta yang belum dilaunch lagi . So cepat2lah snap some photos with my handphone and signaled tu the driver " kereta baru ke? ". Dengan senyum lebar dia mengganguk hehehe. Walaupun TPM dah launched semalam, I still want to share the thrill we had chasing treler tu untuk ambik gambar ni.
Ok, sebab dah takde tekaan baru yang dibuat oleh visitors to my blog regarding apakah bendenya , maka inilah jawapan kepada teka benda yang terbaru tu...
p/s Macam nilah rupanya lepas balik dari KB tempoh hari..

What's up this May...

Just wanna share some things I got to know through out these few days with my blog visitors ( actually it will be news only to those yang tak terlibat dengan nya ).


Last night we had the pleasure of entertaining the pengantin baru from Buffalo and Kuala Kangsar for dinner ( or rather supper ) consisting of Ketam Masak Bercili, Sayur Cendawan Campur dan Ayam Goreng Segera. Took some photographs for rememberance or evidence.

Seorang teman sedang berusaha mengujudkan blog dia sendiri. Hope we can get to visit this new blog sometime in the near future. BTW, how is the progress?

Me and some of my family members here in KL will be leaving for KB this cuti Wesak ( 12 May ). Not to celebrate Wesak but to be with our beloved family back home. Will be back into your lives by the 16 May. Not long enough to be missed, right?

As soon as the new week starts the IMR gang will be enjoying a new form of gathering that does not involve food ( well, at least not for that duration of time ) but body toning, YOGA. We will see how that goes...

Last sekali cuba teka apa ini?

Tuesday, May 02, 2006

Be careful with what you ask..

Kejap tadi I ke Alpha Angle untuk buat some banking business. On the way out of the bank , singgah kat tempat orang tengah demo Osim UZap massage belt. Memandangkan semalam terasa ketat pulak kain baju kurung ( dah begitu lama tak kenakan kurung semenjak tak keje nii ), I decided to tanya and try UZap ni.

Pelik juga masa I jumpa Nida kat wedding Ina tu dia kata I nampak kurus, tapi kenapa kain ketat pulak. Kawan baik I si MAH tu kata sebab perut I dah buncit ( jangan excited, bukan sebab pregnant daa )
Anyway, apa yang I nak cerita ni is about one chinese lady yang ada kat situ semasa I tengah menerai belt tadi. Dia nampak interested juga so I pun pandanglah ke arah perutnya. I nampak perutnya pun buncit juga macam perutku ( sebab seluar dia yang jenis nampak perut ) so I said to her " why don't you try..". Dia cepat2 jawab " no, I don't want ". So without thinking I asked her if she is pregnant ( memang aku ingat pregnantlah sebab tak nak cuba ). She said " no I'm not pregnant " Lalu I pun teringat apa yang kami ( me and my friends ) bincang dalam kereta Puteri hari tu.. never ask a woman if she's pregnant, just because her tummy is big! Rupa-rupanya I pun kantoi juga hehehe. FYI, dia takdelah angry dengan soalan I tu.
Sebab sebenarnya dia tak nak cuba the belt tu is because she just had her lunch, and according to the instruction ( which the demonstrator forgot to mention ) you can only use the belt an hour before or after food intake.
p/s sesiapa yang ada experience with this product boleh bagi komen sikit, bagus ke tak?

1st May 2006..

For most people ( or should I say, Labourers.. hahaha ) it's a day of rest, for a few it's their wedding day but for me and MAH it's a labourous journey day. That day we headed out to Kuala
Kangsar to attend a friend's wedding.
It was 9.15am when we left KL and arrived at our destination, Resort Sungai Perak, at about 12.10am. The first guests to arrive despite trying very hard to be late. Anyway, we were brought to our seats ( kat atas pentas ) and waited for the other guests to arrive.
Had our nasi minyak, took some photographs with friends and pengantin and headed back to KL round about 2.10pm. I takut sangat we would be caught in the predicted jam, itu sebabnya tergesa-gesa balik. Nasib baik juga balik awal, kita sampai KL dalam kol 5.00pm. Kekawan yang bertolak around 3.45pm sampai KL dalam kol 10.00 malam.
That's what I did for Labour Day, not resting like most workers but spending time on the road ( maklumlah kita pesara don't need a day off, everyday is Non-labour day!! ).


Typical pengantin dengan spec hitam ( usually seen outside Kelantan )

Gambar membuktikan yang we were at the wedding ; MAH, me and Nida with the Bride and Groom.
