<center><br />
"...Orang komen, orang kritik sebab dia sebenarnya minat kat kita, dia sayang,dia nak betulkan. Sebenarnya, kalau Nabi dapat wahyu dari Allah, teguran dari Allah, maklumat dari Allah, ilham, semua petunjuk. Tapi manusia ni, kadang-kadang Allah bagi ilham melalui komen-komen orang. Jadi, bila Allah nak didik kita adalah melalui teguran. Kebanyakan orang boleh belajar dari teguran negatif. Puji-pujian ni jadikan dia orang seronok. Memang kita perlu terima hakikat orang komen sebab dia minat. Dan yang tersirat ialah komen daripada orang ramai adalah sebenarnya teguran dari Allah..."<br />

<center><i>taken from <a href="http://yuni.com">yuni.com</a></i><br />
<br />
People come into your life for a reason, a season, or<br />
a lifetime. When you figure out which one it is, you<br />
will know what to do for each person.<br />
<br />
When someone is in your life for a REASON . . . It is<br />
usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have<br />
come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you<br />
with guidance and support, to aid you physically,<br />
emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a<br />
godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason<br />
you need them to be.<br />
<br />
Then, without any wrong doing on your part, or at an<br />
inconvenient time, this person will say or do something<br />
to bring the relationship to an end.<br />
<br />
Sometimes they die.<br />
Sometimes they walk away.<br />
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.<br />
<br />
What we must realise is that our need has been met, our<br />
desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you<br />
sent up has been answered. And now it is time to move on.<br />
<br />
When people come into your life for a SEASON . . .<br />
Because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn.<br />
They bring you an experience of peace, or make you laugh.<br />
They may teach you something you have never done.<br />
They usually give you an unbelievable amount<br />
of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.<br />
<br />
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; things<br />
you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional<br />
foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the<br />
person, and put what you have learned to use in all<br />
other relationships and areas of your life. It is said<br />
that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.<br />

<br />
I didn't watch any of the three episodes of Muzik Muzik semifinals but got to know the 12 finalists from the internet. There are couple of songs that I've never heard of (sorry for my ignorance), but I can say that most of those qualified to the final have good (or above average) quality. Frankly, I've never heard (and don't know how the song sounds like) of Tanpamu and Lagu.<br />
<br />
And most notably, we will see lots of newcomers or fresh faces in our entertainment industry, like Jimmy Palikat (one hit wonder, duh! and the song to me is more like BN-theme song as there is a video on youtube showing Najib Razak danced non-stop to the song in one hari raya function), then we have Amir Jahari (who the hell?!), Bed Room Sentuary (some parks or what?), RJ (Royal Jelly?), Mojo (frankly I was quiet disappointed after googling and saw the face of the vocalist! it doesn't commensurate to the 'jambu'ness of the tune of the song). The only old-timers we will spot in the final would be Azlan (& the Typewriter) and Amy Search.<br />
<br />
These are the songs to be contested in the final, the AJL27:<br />
Idola – Azlan & the Typewriter<br />
Pelangi Senja – Stacy<br />
Terukir Di Bintang – Yuna<br />
Anak Kampung – Jimmy Palikat & One Nation Emcee<br />
Ombak Rindu – Hafiz & Adira<br />
Tanpamu – Amir Jahari<br />
Lagu – Bed Room Sentuary<br />
Teman Pengganti – Black & RJ<br />
Ku Akui – Hafiz<br />
Simetri – Hazama & Amy Seach<br />
Andai Ku Bercinta Lagi – Mojo<br />
Patah Seribu – Shila Amzah<br />
<br />
Some of them have been my favorite local songs, namely Pelangi Senja, Ombak Rindu and Patah Seribu, which I think all three would be a chance to be one of the top-three winners. Others that may provide strong challenge probably Terukir di Bintang (it's more a laidback song but Yuna never did well in AJL - and I'm not a fan of Yuna, still remember her appearing in Fisherman's raincoat in one of the finals), Ku Akui (well, Hafiz always delivered but I think this has got to be the weakest songs from all his songs in any AJL finals), and Simetri for the prowess of the song but Amy sounds more like a back up singer here.<br />
<br />
If I've got to choose one winner, I'd go with Pelangi Senja or Patah Seribu.<br />
<br />
Ok ok... just one! I'd go with Pelangi Senja.<br />

I’m tired of always wondering when I will finally let myself be happy. <br />
Most of all, I’m just tired of being tired.<br />

<i>by <a href="http://www.poems-and-quotes.com/author.html?id=286805">You Are Here Even Though You Are Gone</a></i><br />
<br />
<center>"If tomorrow starts without me,<br />
and I'm not there to see,<br />
if the sun should rise and find your eyes<br />
all filled with tears for me;<br />
I wish so much you wouldn't cry<br />
the way you did today,<br />
while thinking of the many things,<br />
we didn't get to say.<br />
I know how much you love me,as much as I love you,<br />
and each time that you think of me,<br />
I know you'll miss me too.<br />
<br />
But when tomorrow starts without me,<br />
please try to understand,<br />
that an angel came and called my name,<br />
and took me by the hand,<br />
<br />
And said my place was ready,<br />
in heaven far above,<br />
and that I'd have to leave behind<br />
all those I dearly love.<br />
<br />
But as I turned to walk away,<br />
a tear fell from my eye,<br />
for all my life, I'd always thought,<br />
I didn't want to die.<br />
<br />
I had so much to live for,<br />
so much left yet to do,<br />
it seemed almost impossible,<br />
that I was leaving you.<br />
<br />
I thought of all the yesterdays,<br />
the good ones and the bad;<br />
I thought of all that we shared,<br />
and all the fun we had.<br />
<br />
If I could relive yesterday,<br />
just even for a while,<br />
I'd say goodbye and kiss you<br />
and maybe see you smile.<br />
<br />
But then I fully realized,<br />
that this could never be,<br />
for emptiness and memories,<br />
would take the place of me.<br />
<br />
And when I thought of worldly things,<br />
I might miss come tomorrow,<br />
I thought of you, and when I did,<br />
my heart was filled with sorrow.<br />
<br />
But when I walked through heaven's gates,<br />
I felt so much at home,<br />
when God looked down and smiled at me,<br />
from His great golden throne,<br />
<br />
He said, "This is eternity,<br />
and all I've promised you."<br />
Today your life on earth is past,<br />
but here life starts anew.<br />
<br />
I promise no tomorrow,<br />
but today will always last,<br />
and since each day is the same way,<br />
there's no longing for the past.<br />
<br />
You have been so faithful,<br />
so trusting and so true,<br />
though there were times you did some things,<br />
you knew you shouldn't do.<br />
<br />
But you have been forgiven,<br />
and now at last you're free.<br />
So won't you come and take my hand,<br />
and share my life with me?<br />
<br />
So when tomorrow starts without me,<br />
don't think we're far apart,<br />
for every time you think of me,<br />
I'm right here, in your heart "<br />
<br /><br />

The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals. <br />
<br />
We are all familiar with a...<br />
<br />
Herd of cows, <br />
a Flock of chickens, <br />
a School of fish <br />
and a Gaggle of geese.<br />
<br />
However, less widely known is:<br />
a Pride of lions,<br />
a Murder of crows (as well as their cousins the rooks wand ravens),<br />
an Exaltation of doves <br />
<br />
and, presumably because they look so wise: a Congress of owls. <br />
<br />
Now please bear in mind that Baboons<br />
are loud, potentially dangerous, obnoxious, viciously aggressive and the least intelligent of all primates. And take a guess as to what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons?<br />
<br />
Believe it or not … A Parliament!<br />
<br />
A PARLIAMENT OF BABOONS!<br />
I guess this somewhat explains the weird and sometimes unfathomable decisions that come out from Parliament…sometimes… <br />
<br />
You just can’t make this stuff up.<br />

<br />
Written by Regina Brett, 90 years old of Cleveland , Ohio ..<br />
<br />
"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most requested column I've ever written.<br />
<br />
1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.<br />
<br />
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.<br />
<br />
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.<br />
<br />
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.<br />
<br />
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.<br />
<br />
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.<br />
<br />
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.<br />
<br />
8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.<br />
<br />
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.<br />
<br />
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.<br />
<br />
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.<br />
<br />

If Abu is human, he would be in Form One and probably enrolled in any boarding school this year. After spending 13 years together, Abu and I parted ways last night. It was a sad moment but I believe we are on good terms although we would never see each other again. Earlier this year, I've replaced Abu's roof, cured the rusty spots on the its roof as well as makeover its whole body and repainted it.
<br />
<br />
13 years and some 266,000km ++ serving me, taking me to the northern most and southern most spots in the country, I couldn't thank Abu enough for its service. I wish you find a great master in the future and a more peaceful place to settled down into your retirement, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. To Abu, I will miss you forever...

My favorite is of course gulai (kari) ikan although I normally just take the gulai, not the isi. The gulai tastes like my father's!<br /><br />For peeps who work or have worked in PROTON may have known GMJ since it was under a tree and of course knows Mak Jah really well. Although the business have been passed on to her daugter, Kak Piah, we still refer the place as GMJ. :-)<br /><br />Yesterday, while I was there, Mak Jah was at the gerai. It is quite rare these days to see Mak Jah at the gerai since she prefers to stay at home. Talking to Mak Jah is always fun. Yesterday, she talked bout her grandchildren and their whereabouts. And Mak Jah still has good memories she could still remember, for instance, when she last saw Chaom at the gerai, which was sometimes last year.<br /><br />Before I left the gerai, I asked Mak Jah to smile for the camera and she was not hesitant at all to 'strike a pose' and she was so happy to see her picture on my phone. <br /><br />Right before I left the gerai Mak Jah was like extending both of her hands to salam with me, which never happened before and I gladly salam her back and I saw she was silently uttering something which I don' know what. Maybe she was praying something for me?<br /><br />Anyway, thanks Mak Jah (and Kak Piah) for feeding us nice foods and this is for the album...<br /><br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/azrul1976/LapanHariSeminggu?authkey=Gv1sRgCOCihrObs5LwWQ#5586317462871698178'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6TFtnM_Jt2qDX_T-D-Uf7rUYaMO8hZKCYmkzrfkKoqISceUVv67ZS539k5rxjp6ebVllS0NUGANfrO9z_sLVekgRb8EwYdoyNgU6rNuTkI32YY68QMoK5vhSnk1GwkWEwcXzH/s288/0.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><p><br /><p><br />Deohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04374088669771251964noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29159735.post-68399108946695013752011-03-19T16:26:00.001+08:002011-03-19T16:26:42.449+08:001903 - The Faculty cat<p><br />Life has been pretty rough lately. With the demanding schedule at work and school, moral and motivation have been very low, even running seems no longer interesting. <br /><br />Anyway, got to take cue from this lyrics - David Archuleta's Elevator.<br /><br />I had a dream last night, I didn't know which floor to get off on. The doors, they opened on 4 and 5 and 6. And you were gone, all gone. I didn't understand, I didn't wanna know. At least I took a chance, I had to let it go<br /><br />Elevator goes up, elevator come down and you just go with the flow until your feet are back on the ground. It's an endless ride. Sometimes it takes you up, sometimes it tears you down inside. But it's the butterflies that keep you feeling so alive, so alive. You gotta get back that high<br /><br />And in my dream last night the doors they finally shut and I was there, somewhere alone in my reality inside an empty box that's filled with air. But I don't care, noooo. Next time I'll get it right, next time I'll be okay. I'll have a different dream tonight, tomorrow's another.<br /><br />You'll never know what you're gonna get. What you don't expect will come and find you. If you laugh or cry, if you run and hide. But it's all right.<br /><br />...and this is the picture of the day, taken at The Faculty, right before my Public Economics (yaaawwnn...) class.<br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/azrul1976/LapanHariSeminggu?authkey=Gv1sRgCOCihrObs5LwWQ#5585704614317942258'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk7krcFxR7cWBC26n9zBqIRV4fIyh1MvRZla6glvyuKEfX0kDAXP7DWErMDpYFQVC7LjEUpHGQY0fmPFXxkh3gCJddGFVNwR7Q75_l7YAVtnDnaVe-XhbnaBgJ2jRwSRxToB8L/s288/0.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><p><br /><p><br />Deohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04374088669771251964noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29159735.post-59981869429535289692011-03-18T14:27:00.000+08:002011-03-19T16:31:48.255+08:001803 - Bright Friday morning<p><br />The sun was shining brightly this morning.<br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/azrul1976/LapanHariSeminggu?authkey=Gv1sRgCOCihrObs5LwWQ#5585705926080427522'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_RNF0jSmQ5Sc65saJbw1de7gWvUjnemEOK2yp5UJZ-MXNBNV3yyvEU_u6gyq-vNlzfEZyFzSwLgO6Rz5YCYkBsqLrEEEX1Okb5vMfUKXDKR3Fl33PjsA33cCaZw0Bu5N9cxYa/s288/0.jpg' border='0' width='187' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />The picture was taken while I was on my way to work along New Pantai Expressway.<br /><p><br /><p><br />Deohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04374088669771251964noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29159735.post-28497090379574819062011-02-26T10:46:00.002+08:002011-02-26T11:40:32.996+08:00Maher Zain - Live In Concert<p><br />It was an impromptu plan last month when Hadramie asked me about Lat's Theater when I said, "daripada tengok Lat the Musical, baiklah tengok Maher Zain concert" and it was a long eagerly wait between mid-January until last night when the concert is finally here. Went to the concert with Hadramie, also as his 60th birthday treat. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI-vPvsNwUnRV9C0rNpGP1Y1O4I8xX5Xd8raEhulOUgvB-r7movV8pZhT7c6nvsdGJPkAjvkEQT3vTFHn4Qv_83IMBE3Pt3_Q_OZNPQy1fKBZs_iUA_JhDoIvQr0v5yhGafZnS/s1600/IMG_0249.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI-vPvsNwUnRV9C0rNpGP1Y1O4I8xX5Xd8raEhulOUgvB-r7movV8pZhT7c6nvsdGJPkAjvkEQT3vTFHn4Qv_83IMBE3Pt3_Q_OZNPQy1fKBZs_iUA_JhDoIvQr0v5yhGafZnS/s400/IMG_0249.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577837649518809074" /></a><br />MZ was great, I even got goosebumps hearing his songs live, especially Thank You Allah. He even sang the Malay version of Insyaallah and for the first time ever, he sang his latest song, Freedom, which he had just composed one and a half week ago. Crowd was supportive although lots of empty seats seen, which is in contrast to the sold-out notice made by the promoter.<br /><br /><center><iframe title="YouTube video player" width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/3W4w4OIfDt4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></center><br />The guest artists were superb, as well. The opening act was by the local nasyeed group In-Team. There were also Irfan Makki from Canada, Fazli from Indonesia (I heard he's the one who translated the Insyaallah lyrics to Malays), and there was also my favorite Mesut Kurtis, singing few songs including my favorite Burdah. The back-up stringers and percussionists were awesome, too!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSRo-2vFAUxGOh5HlmFhTYC52jMrTtbKJ3ArBl5mhrq1yVxCtOs_SrFc2H1_UeKDIIjzaj0IxKt1RHaUd-qgsmAW4BPZ12E2-cRbga-zmM5BUtPBrLSDSIvSc28GCQOVKcYCGE/s1600/IMG_0261.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 293px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSRo-2vFAUxGOh5HlmFhTYC52jMrTtbKJ3ArBl5mhrq1yVxCtOs_SrFc2H1_UeKDIIjzaj0IxKt1RHaUd-qgsmAW4BPZ12E2-cRbga-zmM5BUtPBrLSDSIvSc28GCQOVKcYCGE/s400/IMG_0261.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577837653730390098" /></a><br />In all, I enjoyed every moment of the concert as much as I enjoyed DT.
