Sabtu

Went to a friend's graduation ceremony yesterday. It was held in a uni in some place that people used to call tempat jin bertendang. It is now a huge modern campus... but I guess you just cannot take out the jins from such place....

...for yesterday, a jin received his PhD!
Congratulations Tan Sri Dr J!ns Shamsudd!n.

A PhD at 75 y.o.
Saya kagum!

I didn't turn off any light during Earth Hour last night... I was on the road heading home, takkan nak tutup lampu kereta. :)

Crumble

There are times, when you are just tired of it all
That you can no longer put up you fake strong facade
You just feel that all you need is just collapse, fall to the ground
Who knows... there could be hands that would help you get up again
The world is always helpful to a damsel in distress, don't they?
But you know, you cannot rely on such false hope
'Cause there aren't any hand to hold on to.

Ubi: seriously need a hug.

Calling a spade a spade

Ini pandangan peribadi. Saya kurang boleh terima amalan macam ni. Tak kisah lah awak nak cakap ini protokol pun. A shovel is a shovel, adding ribbons to it tak menambah apa-apa fungsi. It is not aesthetically pleasing and you just cannot make a shovel look 'formal'. It is meant to be used rough & dirty. Kita nak tanam pokok, bukan nak potong kek pengantin tau!

Sepak tunggul inai berdarah ibu kaki...

Saya tahu, tanpa sebarang pewarna tambahan pun, kaki saya sememangnya tak cantik. Malah dulu kawan-kawan matrik saya kata kaki saya jenis kaki murahan, terlanggar sikit luka, tergesel sikit terkopak kulit.

Tapi saya bersyukur, masih ada kaki. Kalau tak ada kaki kau ingat senang nak hidup kat Malaysia yang serba serbi inaccessible ni?

Semalam, entah apa yang silap, saya tersepak sesuatu masa mengejar bola. Saya kata sesuatu pasal saya tak pasti apa yang saya sepak. Mungkin kaki orang, mungkin tanah yang tak rata kat padang tu, mungkin jugak jembalang tanah (hahaha). Yang pasti benda tu sangat keras dan lepas tu saya mengaduh sakit. Rasa nak tercabut kuku kaki walaupun kaki duk dalam kasut.

biru kaki hitamku (ini lepas dah surut bengkak, kuku jari telunjuk dah hitam pasal blood clot bawah kuku, kuku ibu jari masih biru)

Bawah kuku teramat la sakit, ibu jari tak boleh nak gerak, kaki bengkak. Setelah semalaman menuam dengan ais, kuranglah sikit bengkaknya. Tapi berdenyut tak habis lagi. Dokter kata,

you should rest for 1-2 weeks, do not stand for too long and jangan jalan-jalan.


Habis Doc saya ada tournament Sabtu ni? Do you think it can heal by Saturday?


You have to say goodbye to that, at least for the next few weeks.


Alaa....

Random shots in KT

Lepas turun flight terus gi lepak kat 'Bbenteng, TTI. The place is quite lively at night. Mak bapak ramai bawak anak main kat playground. Siang panas sangat kot nak biar budak-budak main kat luar (tapi dalam rumah pun panas kan?).

Firts batch of buah duku from a very small tree behind Mak's house.

A stray cat named Meong.

Bukan binatang peliharaan. Kodok melepak atas tangga yang dah lama takde orang naik.

Nangka belakang rumah mak.

hendak gugur, gugurlah nangka
jangan menimpa si dahan pauh*
hendak tidur, tidurlah mata
jangan dikenang orang yang jauh.

*gambar dahan pauh tak ada pasal rumah saya tak ada pokok pauh.
