Last Saturday was a date to remember. My cousin Firdaus, one of my closest cousin since baby-hood (lol) was engaged, with her long-known girlfriend, Siti Hazlin, at Batu Berendam, Melaka

Fir ni stayed kat Melaka since dia lahir. After family dia pindah sana sini – KL, Pahang…, dia tetap dok study kat asrama Melaka gak… sampai tunang and kahwin pun ngan orang Melaka… elok benau la tu, bak kata orang Melaka.. hehe..

It was actually my very first time driving that far, out of KL & Selangor. I was a bit nervous at first but it turned out to be OK Some of us convoy from KL – 4 cars and another few families (Fir’s mom’s side of family) came from Seremban for the event

The event was simple but yet went very smooth and beautifully. Perbincangan dari wakil pihak lelaki dan perempuan nampak elok je, takde langsung sebarang bantahan mahupun selisih kata yang kecil Hantaran dari pihak lelaki sebanyak 7 dulang dan dari pihak perempuan pula.. erm.. tak ingat lak, hehe… The wedding is set to be on the 4th of December 2010. Can’t wait!

Discussion of both pihak lelaki dan perempuan…

Fir’s mother (Auntie Mim) menyarungkan cincin pertunangan ke jari Hazlin Untung Hazlin, dapat 2 cincin sekali – cincin risik + cincin tunang…

Lepas majlis bertunang tu, my mom pesan kat Fir utk berjaga2 dalam this engagement period. Darah manis katanya, senang nak undang benda2 yang kurang elok… I dan seisi keluarga doakan yang baik2 untuk Fir, hope semua nya akan selamat, insyaAllah… amin…

Half of keluarga pihak lelaki yang hantar rombongan meminang hari tu. Separuh lagi dah gi keluar makan. Hehe…

Right after the engagement, since most of my uncles and aunties have their own programs and agendas, we all went to our separate ways Mula2 aku sekeluarga bercadang nak jalan2 sekitar bandar Melaka… ya la, alang2 dah sampai dari jauh kan, rugi tak jalan2..

Tapi alkisahhhhhh… punyer la jem bandar Melaka hari tu. Rupanya Melaka kalau weekend, memang sesak tahap na’uzubillah, ngalahkan KL Ikut kan nak juga jumpa kak Maya & Phewit sekejap, minum2 ker… tapi tak kesampaian la pulak.. Tak sempat ke mana pun, sempat beli belacan jer… my nenek kang selagi tak beli belacan, aku yang dibelacankannya nanti, hehe..

Lepas singgah sana sini sinun beli ntah apa2 kat tepi2 jalan arah nak ke Klebang tu.. kitorang pun headed back to KL… dalam pukul 5 lebih camtu… padahal bukan dapat buat/pergi mana sangat pun, lama terperangkap dalam jem nyer je yang lebih

Maka, bila dah masuk highway tu, ingatkan dah lepas lah penyeksaan… sekali lagi teruk penyeksaan yang menanti rupanya… a few KM lepas keluar je dari kawasan rehat restoran jejantas Ayer Keroh tu, jem la puloks…

Petang tu my brother called my mom, telling us the highway was jammed so badly.. dalam pukul 2+ camtu. So we thought, by 5+, jem dah reda la.. rupanya worse.. diorang lepas exit Pilah start jem, kitorang belum exit mana dah jem dah.. aiyoh Ada la dalam 90 minutes terperangkap dalam jem tu. Lepas R&R Seremban baru OK sikit. Tu pun slow2 juga la jalan, but still better than before

Balik 5.30+ pm, sampai Putra Heights (sebab kena hantar my mom balik dulu) puku; 10.30+ pm… fuwalllauweyyy… sakit pinggang makkk. Sebab my grandma tak bawak bekalan ubat dia for that night, I have to head back to Ampang malam tu jugak.. matilaaa penyeksaan lagi 1 jam extra Esoknya memang melepek la jawabnya… flat uols…

Am currently addicted to this song, by AI’s Kris Allen…

It may not be the best one
It may not be like the rest of ‘em
But she makes it sound so sweet
The melodies she makes it sing

On her red guitar
The color never fades away
No matter where she has it placed
And my life would change when I saw
The face of…
Of her red guitar

It’s been through hell
Oh, the sound it makes
It takes me to some higher place
She doesn’t have a clue
Oh, that I love to listen to…

Her red guitar, yeah
The color never fades away
No matter where she has it placed
And my life would change when I saw
The face of…
Of her red guitar
Of her red guitar

She plays it soft so only I can hear
The same old song
That she played last year
And it may not have all the strings
Oh, but she strums it beautifully

On her red guitar, yeah
Her red guitar, yeah
The color never fades away
No matter where she has it placed
And my life would change when I saw
The face of…
Of her red guitar
Of her red guitar
Of her red guitar

Kris wrote this song before he’s in AI, so he thinks this song is really special and feels delighted to have it included in his album

At first I just like the music. But after learning that he wrote the song specially for his wife, and that this song has a special meaning for him, I suddenly fell in love with the song overall..

For me, I see it as a song saying how special someone/something is to this person, no matter what. He/She/It doesn’t have to the best or as perfect one, but as long as it soothes you and can make you happy… that’s ALL that matters

After months of saving and dreaming and longing for Blackberry, alhamdulillah, I finally able to buy it I also bought it because I needed a new phone badly – my old phone, which was bought almost 3 years ago has started to act weird and funny. The screen always go blank in all of a sudden. It’s really hard when I have to keep restarting the phone again and again and again everytime that happens

At first, I wanted to buy the Bold 9000 model, but after learning there’s a “newer” version of this phone, it’s better as well I buy the latest one, right? I have never ever have any experience using BlackBerry or PDA related phones, so my reviews or judgments or comparisons is really unnecessary and not much useful I think… for the time being at least

But so far I must say I am really happy with this phone… especially to the fact that I can stay online 24/7, anytime, anywhere (Bunyi macam iklan pulak, hehe)
