It is gonna be Wesak Day’s holiday. I’ll be offline for about 2 weeks starting today. Will spend 2 days in Malacca (yay!) before hopping on the bus to Kota Bharu. Gonna come up with Malacca Trip entry soon! Stay tuned and please don’t miss me too much. Uhuh! 2 more weeks and I’ll be done with my holiday. Damn, my mind will get rusty again! Hahaha. See you later.

Yours truly,

Daddy’s Day May 22, 2008

Filed under: Family, Personal — Tiara @ 12:10 am

Semalam 21 May hari lahir Daddy aku. Hari lahir beliau yang ke 68. Damn, that number sounds really old! But wait, you will be surprised. Daddy aku takkan kelihatan setua yang kau sangka. Personally, I think he looks like a 50 year old man. Awet muda beb!

Daddy aku memang sangat best orangnya. Protective yet so sporting. He loves my mom so much. In fact, aku tak pernah nampak diorang bergaduh whatsoever. And I respect him for that. Daddy is so cool. Daddy is the word. The man that I love the most!

I had this one funny experience with my daddy. It was some time last year. I was about to go out when he saw me all dressed up with some light makeup on my face.

Daddy: Hey dear, you better wipe off that thing on your face. I don’t really like it. I prefer your natural complexion, it is much prettier.

Myself: Huh? But this is nothing much la Dad.

Mummy: Yeah, it is fine. Only that she wears some mascara which is not necessary. But I think I’m OK with that. Our girl is all grown up now.

Myself: Thanks Mummy, so cool.

Daddy: Whatever you say girls. But I think you better go natural. Guys dig that, you know.

Myself: Huh? I gotta go now. See ya both then. Ciao!

Haha. Lepas peristiwa itu, bila aku nak keluar rumah, aku kurangkan kuantiti makeup, sometimes tak pakai langsung. Betul ape yang Daddy cakap. Natural looks are better. One of the best advices from him which I will remember forever. Daddy also was the one who introduced me to Indian food. And now look, I’m addicted to eating at Mamak stalls. Daddy is my biggest influence. Thumbs up to the old fellow! I love you Daddy!

P/S: Meant to post this entry earlier tapi terlewat pulak sebab hari ni aku kelas full. Sorry. Meanwhile, Manchester United won the Champions League by beating Chelsea 6-5 on penalties after a dramatic 1-1 draw. Terrible!

 

21 Today! May 16, 2008

Filed under: Personal — Tiara @ 8:47 pm

I’m sitting in my room trying to write something for my birthday. Can’t believe that I’m actually turning 21 today. I received lots of text messages from my friends earlier this morning. Not to mention the messages that I got from Friendster and Myspace friends. Damn, I can’t think very well today. Thank god I’ve slowly regained my healthy state from that allergicity disaster 3 days ago.

No.. this is not mine.

I must admit that I’m still a bit childish and naive. Some of my friends even didn’t believe when I told them about my age. Oh okay, I’m 21 now and I should act like one.

Staying faithfully on my chest..ahaks!

I guess the celebration of my birthday this year will be nothing special as I will probably celebrate it with some of my classmates. We will go to the movies, dining and bowling. I have a plan of going to Port Dickson tomorrow with my housemate and her friends but this is not yet confirmed.

Oh yeah.. people say that I should make some wishes for my birthday and so the list goes on:

1. I wish the 2010 will come quickly. Can’t wait for the graduation.

2. I want to meet someone who I can share my love and life with.

3. I’m hoping to improve my skills in bowling, so that I will not finish last as always. (Hey, my opponents are all boys!)

4. Want to have great relationship with everyone. No more arguments!

5. Stay healthy, fit and happy all the time.

6. To be updated later.. uhuh.

I must say thanks to my classmates who were sporting enough to sing me the Happy Birthday song when I arrived at the college this evening. It was so sweet of them. They even asked me to give some speech. No, I was so speechless at that time. But anyways, thanks.

Happy times. From left: Pok Mat (23), Myself (21), Farid (21), Ayap (20) and Shahrul (20). Damn.. I looked horrible in this pic.

Happy Teacher’s Day to all the teachers in the world.. Special shoutout goes to my dearest teachers.. You mean the world to me. See you then and stay tuned.

 

Birthday Boy May 15, 2008

Filed under: Family — Tiara @ 6:17 am

Never thought that I would be posting this entry. I suppose this is a bonus entry for you. Today, May 15th is my big brother’s 22nd birthday. See, he is almost exactly one year older than me.

Forgot to spare you some details on him. Born in the HUSM Kubang Kerian on 15th of May 1986 in which I was also born there a year later. His real name is Tabliegh Mohammed and affectionately known as Alex. A Geology student at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. He desperately wanted to be an engineer ever since he was in his Matriculation days.

He has this indispensable passion for football. Makan bola minum bola tidur bola would be the best description about him. You can see the picture above, he had a knock with Liverpool defensive midfielder, Mr Javier Mascherano. Haha. Cool edit, actually. A big fan of Manchester United, as far as I know. Our nephews who are currently live in Scotland call him Andak Beckham.

I can’t remember when was the last time I met him. Maybe on the 2007 Aidilfitri. He rarely comes home because he has to fulfill the requirement as a Geology student that is he has to attend lots of fieldwork. And he is also a quite active person in the campus.

We were attending the same school starting with SRK Sultan Ismail 3, then we moved to SK Salor because of some technical problems. And then, went to SMK Salor for secondary school. He was the head of prefects of the school. I still remember how some teachers at the school frequently compared me to him. One of them said that both of us were so different in terms of characteristics. Yeah, I had to admit it. He was of the best student and leadership material while I was being the playful one. Whatever lah. I didn’t give a damn at all about the baseless, unjustified comparison.

He once said that he was proud with the Pan-Asian look which does help him sometimes in some ways. As for myself, I don’t think I have his good looks even though people always say that we are carbon copies of each other. You don’t think so too, right? Pic above: Seen here with our nephew, El Arshad.

Quite a hot-tempered guy sometimes. I would always try my best not to get involved in any arguments with him. Sorry to say that bro. In fact, I can say that each and every boys in my family are belonged to the hot-headed type. As for me, being the youngest of the only two girls in the siblings of eight had fully understand that. Haha.

And finally I would love to wish him a Happy Prosperous 22nd Birthday. I had sent him a text message last night but there was no response. Never mind though. Hope he will success in his life. Amin.

P.S: I haven’t fully recovered from my allergicity (sorry, I love the wordplay). I prefer not to eat and try to abstain from any possibly harmful food. Sigh. But I think it is a good reason for me to start my weight loss plan. Yeah. See you then, supposedly tomorrow.

 

Allergic? May 13, 2008

Filed under: Personal — Tiara @ 12:38 pm

Wah. Once again, aku rasa malas nak menulis dalam English. Hari ni aku langsung tak pegi kelas. Even worst than yesterday. But wait, I have my own reasonable reason. Pagi tadi aku pegi klinik sebab sejak semalam badan aku habis merah-merah dan gatal-gatal. Damn. What did I do? Aku rasa aku takde pulak pegi main-main kat tempat yang tak sepatutnya. Habis kelas aku terus balik rumah. Then aku tidur la kejap dalam sejam. Mende tu start menjadi bile aku bangun dari tidur tu. Gatal yang teramat sangat. Nak kata nyamuk, impossible la sebab rumah aku tingkat tinggi, tingkat 26 dan memang tak pernah-pernah ade seekor pun nyamuk sejak aku stay kat sini. Aku started to scratch it. Tak tahan oi. Walaupun aku cukup-cukup tahu that scratching will spread the rashes. It is common sense lah, I bet everyone knows that.

Memang malam tadi aku cukup-cukup serabut giler. So aku dengan bangganya pegi klinik sorang-sorang. Looking at my ever-tight budget, I chose the government clinic. Save duit la! Ade kawan aku hari tu pernah kena gatal-gatal macam ni jugak dan die pegi private clinic. Sekali die kena charge RM80, mak ai! Wargh, that RM80 dah buleh beli macam-macam. Pegi main boling 10 round pun jalan beb.

And then, nurse yang bertugas ambik darah aku untuk diuji. Aku kadang-kadang tak berape suke kerja-kerja cucuk-cucuk ambik darah ni. Sakit satu hal. Satu lagi, banyak pulak tu die ambik. Aku macam tak percaya tengok darah aku mengalir dalam tiub tu. Dah lah siap komen pasal blood vessel (salur darah @ urat) aku. Katanya blood vessel aku kecik. Kecik tak kecik pun, my blood is seriously valuable. Type O. Penderma universal. Sape tak cukup darah jom ambik darah aku. Haha.

Enuff about the blood. Doktor bilang aku disahkan menghidap allergic reaction. Alergik dengan makanan katanya. Weh.. Alergik apekebendenye? Absolutely strange. Tak pernah-pernah seumur 21 tahun aku ni aku ader alergik dengan something. Oh maybe ader lah alergik dengan bullshit and losers. Haha. Tapi makanan? Aku tak makan anything apart from oatmeal Quaker tengah hari semalam. Nasik and anything else takde. Takkan tetibe alergik kat oat pulak. Tak munasabah la aku alergik dengan makanan. Tolak batu, kayu, api, pasir dan sewaktu dengannya and there you go… semua aku bedal. Sungguh musykil. Tapi aku rasa mungkin ade fakta sains yang aku tak tau menyokong keputusan doktor tu. Huh. Rasanya aku kena belek balik nota Chapter Hypersensitivity dlm subjek Mikrobiologi aku semester lepas.

Hope mende alah ni won’t last very long. Depa bagi aku steroid uh! Ala, steroid biasenya digunakan untuk skin disorders treatment. Err, I thought so lah. Ah whatever lah. Aku taknak kondisi ini berlarutan. Hehe. Credit to Zila and Sally sebab took care about my attendance records. Aku tak tergerak hati nak mintak MC dengan doktor tadi sebab beliau agak kerek denganku. Sempat aku jeling kaunter farmasi. There was this guy who used to go out on a date with me once at the counter. He is a pharmacy student at my college. Die buat practikal kat situ, rasanya. A Kelantanese by the way. What else? Oh, I was the one who felt that we can’t be anything more than friends. Eh, dah out of topic ni. By the way, I want to get a little rest for a while. That steroid really made me sleepy. Oh hari ini 13 Mei. Ulang tahun peristiwa berdarah 13 Mei 1969. Hope that fatal incident jangan berlaku lagi.

See you later. Got to hit the bed now.

Forgive me because I’m totally lazy to blog completely in English this time. Mungkin sebab tadi baru abis klas Bahasa Kebangsaan. Lecturer tu bersungguh-sungguh mengajar even hari dah lewat petang. Aku pulak, sangat sangap.. kelas pagi tadi aku tak pegi. Klas sejarah rasanya. Nevermind. Rasa letih seluruh badan bile aku bangun pukul 10 pagi tadi. Very Unusual. Tapi tak terlalu letih untuk taip mesej to my friend, Zila. Told her to sign my attendance. So sweet of her. Kesalahan disiplin aku yang entah kali keberapa. Sigh.

Nothing to tell about my day today. Mampu bergerak untuk ke kelas jam 2 petang. Kelas ape eh.. oh kelas English. Classmates yang perihatin tentunya akan bertanya. “Yaya, nape kau tak datang kelas? Yaya, hang kuat ponteng la.. hang pi mana? Yaya, hang tido tak bangun apa?” And lots of questions. I just smiled and told them that I was not feeling well. Meanwhile, Zila wasn’t around at that time. I guess die pulak tukar shift ponteng dengan aku. Sally wasn’t there also, I thought she was still back at her kampung, join the upacara penghantaran menantu. Aku duduk paling belakang dalam kelas so bile lecturer suruh someone tutup pintu bilik kuliah, budak-budak laki kelas aku sesedap rasa bagi sokongan moral a.k.a big applauses for me. Padahal bukan aku yang duduk paling dekat dengan pintu. I was so sorry, just didn’t have the mood to bergurau with them.

Next class, the Bahasa Kebangsaan. Lecturer tu mengingatkan kami tentang Hari Ibu yesterday dan satu lagi hari istimewa yang bakal menjelma pada 16 Mei iaitu Hari Guru. Hello Miss.. Itu hari besday saya la! Hoped to say it out loud. She did ask me to sing a song for my mom. I wasn’t sporting enough to do it. Class ended at 6 pm. I was going to ask some of my classmates to go lepak-lepak tepi swimming pool. Tapi, dah ada segerombolan students dah ambik tempat. Cesh. So I ended up watching my classmates guys playing football. Wargh. Lemah satu badan rasanya. The last time aku rasa camni ialah bila time nak ambik result final exam hari tu. Tak bermaya. And so I think I’m gonna take some time to rest.

See you later. The title of this entry seems to suggest something else. I just can’t survive any semester without skipping the classes. Tabiat semulajadi. One of my Indulgences. Please allow this young woman her indulgences. Yeah.

I’m gonna come up with Teacher’s Day entry or Birthday Girl entry soon. Or both. See you then.

 

Mukhleiss May 10, 2008

Filed under: Family — Tiara @ 6:33 am

Photos of my youngest brother, Mukhleiss Mohammed a.k.a Ah Chai. I was about to take a nap when he asked me to take his pictures. FYI, he is currently studying in Form 2 at MRSM Pasir Tumboh, Kelantan. Quite a “manja” boy actually. He is about the same height as mine, or probably a little shorter. Never mind, he is only 14. Still gonna grow a few inches. He was playing by himself because his big brother, Mursyid was out somewhere else. I thought we were making lots of noises while taking these pictures. Kesian jiran sebelah nak tido pun tak boleh.

I’m not feeling very well today. Just another girl’s problem. You probably know that. See ya next time.

ONCE – AKU MAU

Heard this song playing on my friend’s mp3 phone some months ago. It wasn’t exactly the first time I heard it. But since then I got so crazy about it. I was so into it. Recently, I went online to look for the mp3 and the song lyrics. I got so lost in those beautiful words. You should try to indulge in it. Pretty great.

Kau boleh acuhkan diriku
Dan anggap ku tak ada
Tapi takkan merubah perasaanku
Kepadamu

Kuyakin pasti suatu saat
Semua kan terjadi
Kau kan mencintaiku
Dan tak akan pernah melepasku

Aku mau mendampingi dirimu
Aku mau cintai kekuranganmu
Selalu bersedia bahagiakanmu
Apapun terjadi
Kujanjikan aku ada

Kau boleh jauhi diriku
Namun kupercaya
Kau kan mencintaiku
Dan tak akan pernah melepasku

Aku mau mendampingi dirimu
Aku mau cintai kekuranganmu
Aku yang rela terluka
Untuk masa lalu

I personally think that the song really represented the perfect unconditional love. How I wish I had someone who I could sing this song to. I really wanna do. Forgive me for being such emotional. This is my true feeling that I want to share with everyone. I’m emotional enough to include the video-clip, courtesy of You-Tube.

This is my 2nd jiwang entry. See ya then.

 

Smile Baby Smile May 3, 2008

Filed under: Family, Personal — Tiara @ 4:18 am

Izzat Al-Amin will turn 3 in October. I took these pictures 2 weeks ago. My mummy was cooking for lunch when he came into the kitchen and asked her to cook Maggi noodles for him. I loved to see his playful and naughty antics so I decided to take some photos of him. I asked him to smile but I certainly didn’t expect to see that kind of smile. Seemed like he was trying so hard to crack his smile. I gotta tell you that those eyes weren’t suppose to look like that.

He has a little brother named Ashraff Amir. His brother is super healthy and I bet he looks bigger than Izzat in this picture. Ashraff will turn 1 in June. About the same age with his cousin, Arshad.

And so I myself have a reason to SMILE today because I get to spend another day in my hometown. I’m going back to Kuala Lumpur tomorrow morning together with my classmates. Can’t wait to see my friends there. So I guess I’ll be seeing you later.

 

May Day May 1, 2008

Filed under: Family, Personal — Tiara @ 5:34 am

Days go by and the adventurous April passed by. Haha, adventurous? Not likely. I have a big respect towards the month of May. And so I showed my respect by waking up early in the morning of the first day of May. My mummy told me yesterday that she was going to cook nasi lemak for breakfast. Ah, my favourite. After performing Subuh prayer, I stayed awake so that I could be the first to eat the delicious nasi lemak. And apparently, I was. 2 little brothers, Alim had gone back to sleep while Ah Chai was playing the computer games.

Today, there will be a little “makan2″ feast at the surau in front of my house. It will be held in conjunction of Maulidul Rasul celebration. My mummy is in charge of cooking together with some of our neighbours. They are going to prepare the nasi dagang. Yummy. Yet another my all time favourite. And now, they are at the kitchen working those things out. Sadly I can’t help because I’m going to meet an old friend at KB Mall at 2 pm. But I’m pretty sure that I’ll be able to eat the nasi dagang when I get back.

I’ll be back in Kuala Lumpur by Saturday evening. It’s been some time I didn’t fill my head with all that academical stuff. And my mind seems to get rusty with all sorts of nasty things. Haha. There are lots of things that will happen in this month and the most anticipated thing is my 21st birthday on 16th of May. Yoohoo!
