Senang hati ku Susah

Abang Yin dan Akak Yang..

1. Aku senang hati sebab 2 kerja surfacing aku dah siap dan tengah tunggu untuk siap prototype.

Tapi aku susah hati pula sekarang bila aku malas nak buat kerja-kerja lain yang aku consider tidak mencabar seperti documentation.

2. Aku senang hati sebab tak sabar nak tunggu ketibaan hari esok di mana aku dan si jantung hati (s) akan berangkat ke pulau untuk honeymooning.

Tapi aku susah hati pula bila tekenangkan thesis aku yang tak siap-siap lagi.

3. Aku senang hati sebab minggu depannya aku akan ke KL bersama si jantung hati untuk menghadiri kenduri..serta atas desakan keluarga yang telah lama tidak kami jumpa.

Tapi aku susah hati pula sebab aku bakal letih berlari ke sini sana atas kerana jangkamasa lawatan kami ke KL yang sungguh singkat.

4. Aku senang hati sebab aku mampu tidur berhawa dingin dan mandi air panas keesokkan paginya.

Tapi aku susah hati pula bila terkenangkan jumlah bil elektrik yang bakal diterima di akhir bulan. Termasuklah bil-bil lain yang sewaktu dengannya.

5. Aku senang hati apabila mendapat tahu sebuah syarikat gergasi mungkin memerlukan tenaga pekerja yang mempunyai kemahiran yang aku miliki.

Tapi aku susah hati apabila..hmm..aku tak pasti kalau aku patut bersusah hati atau tidak..

aH! Akhirnya..masa untuk pulang!

If I’m the Minister of Transport

If I’m the Minister of Transport,


1. I will ban trucks and lorries from using the road on weekdays between 6:30 am – 9:00 am and 4:30pm – 7:00 pm. These heavy duties are such a pain especially when they crawl and filling every inch of the road, while everyone else is running to the time slot machine. Plan your trip Truckies!!

2. Heavy fine for double parking! Can’t you see that our roads are small? and your precious vehicle is blocking the road? What’s wrong with parking a little bit further from the restaurant? RM300!!! Take that!

3. I will set some official ruling for Malaysian drivers. Some of it are like,
The “Take Turns” concept, the 101 “hand gestures” communication and the “After you..” concept. Fail to obey these rules, RM300 out from your pocket!

4. I will give a tall order to PLUS Sdn Bhd to immediately upgrade their R&Rs along the South side (KL-JB). The R&Rs are dull and boring, the toilets are dirty..a disgrace to the country! Buck up boys!!

5. I will lower down the cost of public transport, cheap bus tickets, LRTs and taxi rides so people can turn to the services instead of driving their Hummer alone to office everyday. When the demand is there, I will add in more of them, so the services will be more accessible to the people. Of course we will help the transportation companies by injecting few billions. Kita kaya kan?…hehe

6. Bus and taxi drivers will suffer under my reign. There will be lots of spot checks, driving tests and license renewal every 6 months, proper uniforms, PR and safety trainings: they will be the most professional and safe driver in the world. In return, they will be handsomely paid.

7. I will kick the developer inside out if they propose to me a single lane road project! Minimum, one side, 3 lanes! So, to and fro, 6 lanes! If highway? Autobahn style! Bye-bye setinggans!! The Housing Ministry will provide you a house - 45 floors flats-no lift.

8. More high speed train. North to South, every 20 minutes! Vast developments in the rural area will soon follow. Tourism, housing estates, universities, business centres, you name it!

9. Georgetown will be the first Car-Free Zone city in Malaysia. The roads of Georgetown will be on cobbled stones, trishaws and bicycles will be the main means of transport, heavy and bulk items will be delivered via PUDS (Penang Underground Delivering System). This is to promote healthy living and eliminate road congestions. Why Georgetown? That place has no further room for road widening project. Kata, pulau...


10. Motorcycle lanes for every road in Malaysia. Those caught riding on the other lanes will be heavily fined, bonus, 3 months license suspension. Racing? If you’re caught racing on the streets, authorities will have the pleasure of ramming you down-guilt-free. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!

*Update - 290709 - morning

11. The hands of vehicle users will be chopped off ala Hudud if fail to use the turn indicator light (signal). Beli kereta pandai, bawa kereta bodoh…



How about you? Future Minister...

A glimpse of the future..comel kan vehicle tu?

Yasmin Ahmad - Al-Fatihah

A very sad day for Malaysia's advertising scene.

2009/07/25

Bernama

KUALA LUMPUR: Renowned film and advertising director Yasmin Ahmad died here at about 11.25pm on Saturday night.

Her death was confirmed by Media Prime Group Chief Operations Officer Datuk Seri Ahmad Farid Ridzuan, who was at the Damansara Specialists Hospital, when contacted by Bernama.

Yasmin, 51, collapsed while presenting a working paper at Sri Pentas, the headquarters of the private television station TV3 on Thursday and was rushed to the Damansara Specialists Hospital.

She was reported to have suffered a stroke and brain haemorrhage.

Yasmin left a legacy of her works in the film and advertisement arenas, thriving on the themes of love, family ties and comedy against the backdrop of multiracial Malaysia.

Born in Bukit Treh, Muar, Johor on July 1 1958, Yasmin, who graduated in psychology from Newcastle University, United Kingdom, had won local and international creativity awards.

Married to Abdullah Tan Yew Leong, she began her career as a copywriter with Ogilvy & Mather before joining Leo Burnnett as joint creative director in 1993 and rose to become its creative executive director until her death.

Her creativity could be seen in many Petronas' commercials and evoked emotion of the viewers especially during the Aidilfitri celebration which would certainly be missed by viewers this year.

In the filming industry, Yasmin, however, drew much controversy in view of her openness and boldness in analysing social issues.

She was at the mercy of critics since her first movie, "Rabun" was screened in 2003 followed by "Sepet" (2004), "Gubra" (2006), "Mukhsin" (2006), "Muallaf" (2008) and Talentime (2009).

Despite the drawbacks, she also earned rave reviews for "Sepet" which was accorded the Best Film Award and the Best Original Screenplay Award at the Malaysian Film Festival 2005.

"Sepet" also bagged several international awards, namely the Asian Film Award at the Tokyo International Film Festival 2005, the Grand Prix Award at the Creteil International Women's Film Festival in the same year.

"Gubra" won the Best Screenplay award at the Malaysian Film Festival 2006.

"Muhsin" won the Generation kplus - Best Feature Film and the Deutsches Kinderhilfswerk Grand Prix award at the Berlin International Film Festival.

"Mukhsin" also won the Best Asean Film at the Cinemanila International Film Festival 2007.

"Muallaf" won the Asian Film Award - Special Mention at the Tokyo International Film Festival 2008.

While leaving indelible mark at home, Yasmin's movies gained international recognition as they were shown in Berlin, San Francisco, Singapore and at the Cannes Film Festival.

Yasmin, you'll definitely be missed..

(i hope i got it all right..simply browsed Yasmin Ahmad in Youtube..)

The White Album

Kerana tension tak dapat cycling naik Gunung Jerai petang tadi,
aku pun grab camera..


Terima Kasih dinding yang putih..

Ibu Segala Maksiat

Aku ada seorang sahabat.
Dia baik orangnya.
Tapi baru-baru ni aku baru dapat tahu.
Sahabat aku ni dah tersimpang “sedikit”.
Apa yang dia buat?

Nabi Muhammad SAW bersabda,

" Arak adalah ibu segala maksiat dan ianya adalah maksiat paling mengaibkan." (Kitab Sunan Ibnu Majah jilid 3, kitab memabukkan, Bab 30, Hadis no. 3371)

Aku tak kisah. Gua open-minded.
Sahabat aku ni pun dah besar panjang.
Aku percaya dia tahu nak bezakan
Yang baik dan buruk.

Tapilah kan,
Nak cakap aku tak kisah pun salah jugaklah.
Kalau tidak, buat apa aku susah-susah nak karang “entry” ni?
Tak sampai hati pula aku nak menutup sebelah mata.
Maknanya hati aku ni adalah kisah tu sedikit.

Macam nilah.
Aku bukan nak tunjuk baik, nak tunjuk hebat, pandai atau apa-apa je yang tengah bermain dalam otak kamu semua.
Aku hanya nak mengingatkan.
Selepas Ibubapa, tiada siapa lagi yang akan menegur kesilapan kita.
Melainkan member-member sendiri.

Di akhir zaman ni, kawan-kawan lagi mengenali kita daripada Ibubapa sendiri.
Sahabat yang baik, adalah sahabat yang menegur kesilapan kita.
Kalau aku buat salah, tolonglah tegur sebab aku tahu aku ni senang buta dan terpesong.
Kalau kawan aku buat salah, aku pun akan cuba tegur.
Setakat mana yang aku mampu.

Konsep ni senang je.Untuk memudahkan,
Sebelum kita nak buat sesuatu, cuba ambil masa sedikit masa untuk membuat analisis, dan menjawab persoalan tersebut:

1. Kalau Ibubapa kita tahu, diaorang marah tak?
2. Kalau anak kita esok buat jugak, kita marah tak?
3. Dalam agama pulak, agak-agaknya lah kan, kalau kita buat tu, Tuhan marah tak?


Aku nak meningatkan diri aku jugaklah kan,
Segala rezeki, bisnes, kesenangan, akal dan kreativiti,
Semuanya datang dari Allah yang Maha Besar.
Bila-bila masa je Dia boleh bagi dan bila-bika masa je dia boleh tarik balik semua tu dari kita.

Macamnilah..contohnya.
Satu hari, tiba-tiba je aku datang jumpa kau,
Tanpa memberi salam, aku belasah kau sampai terbaring dalam longkang,
aku pijak-pijak kepala kau sambil meludah kahak hijau sampai penuh telinga
Tengah aku membelasah kau tu, aku teringat kereta aku rosak, kena tinggal di bengkel.
Dengan penuh muka mengharap,
Aku minta jasa baik kau hantar aku ke Puduraya

Macam mana kau rasa?
“Kau dah belasah aku cukup-cukup, lepas tu nak minta tolong aku pulak..”

Samalah!..kau dah buat Dia marah, segala tegahan Nya kau main langgar je, tapi bila susah, kau nak mengharap Dia tolong kau balik. Kau tak tahu malu ke?

Kesilapan yang dah lepas tu, lepaslah. Orang nak cakap apa, biarkan.
Jangan takut untuk membuat perubahan kearah kebaikkan.

Semoga Tuhan sentiasa tunjukkan kepada kita yang betul itu betul, dan yang salah itu salah.


Ya adik-adik,
Sekian sahaja kata-kata nasihat dari Abang Sharel. InsyaAllah , semoga kita berjumpa lagi di masa hadapan, di waktu dan ruangan yang sama.

Wabillahi taufik walhidayah wassalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh

PROUD MALAYSIAN

I'm not a sports fan,
I don't follow the football scene,
and I don't give a damn which millionaires are in town to kick balls.

But I do give a damn
when the people worship the other team more
than their own national team.

When can this stop?

When can we ever be proud of wearing a “made in Gombak” shoes?

Better be NOW..or Never.

Support Malaysian products!

Especially MODENAS bikes.
(So I can get bonus..hehehe)
