sandalkakiKU


for a sandal fetish (so what, i wore sandals more than shoes, even when walking to the office or up the hills) i've lost that significant memory of the last time splurging over those splendours (sigh)... last nite was a horrified memory! tgh sebok cari barang ntok my sis, sandal putus! yes, putus!!!!!!!!! tensen tul. t'pksa jalan seret2 dari sg $ ke kereta dkt marriot... dlm hujan, meredah lopak n air... ish2x.

so anyone in the mood for sandal/shoe shopping?!

congkak


after having such a success (horrorwise) thru Jangan Pandang Belakang (“JPB”) and a box office across the region, one could only hope for the best in the latest horror flick out of the Ahmad Idham - Pierre Andre combo. but their latest 'Congkok" fails miserably! you may disregard the talentless acting (except for Mak Mah’s brilliant performance), the its-not-funny-but-people-still-laughs-dialogue and a few shows of strings hooked at the ghost in JPD for the suspense and horror you are being fed with, but for congkak, nothing did amazingly well. Yes, I admit that the suspense was there (with the help of the music scores) and I was feeling like goin’ home entirely all the way and there are a few commandable screams, but the acting, the plot and the script... Ya Tuhan! another malay flick truly Malaysian. if there were someone, tweeking the script and the plot, it would definitely be supremely better.
n y have supreme talent like mak mah and m. rajoli if they are not used for the benefit of the movie?

go see this if you are those ‘penyokong industri kita’ but leave your hopes and mind outside coz it would not do u good.

n thanks to smua yg participate wif the rombongan. He he he… we should do this again sumtime

pasti, mungkin

last night I managed to watch ‘definitely, maybe’. Isla Fisher was brilliant! You can definitely feel her love bursting for Hayes (Ryan Reynolds), but as how a cosmic coincidence it was, if u’re too blinded by everything around you, you wouldn’t really feel the love oozing until it smacked u in the face! n Abigail continues to churn her cuteness (loved her since ‘lil miss sunshine).


but what bothers me though is the theme the movie brought on ‘soulmates’. semenjak laila majnun, we’ve been hampered with love stories of lovers falling into their first, last and forever love. macam romeo & Juliet, jumpa, jatuh cinta, bersatu n berkorban. tapi, lately, all love stories cuba nk tunjuk yang maybe in finding your mr./ms right, you wouldn’t do it superbly the first time! you may have gone through it twice or thrice and then only you find that ‘other half. its’ no longer a journey, but a process. CONTOH: kabhi alvida na kehna (both shah rukh n preity were married but not to one another. They later falled in love and was, notionly, fit each other ), brokeback mountain, cinta (rita’s character tinggalkn suami dia (shidi’s character) for another guy n even rahim razali’s pun a widower what ), 27 dresses (james marsden’s character is a divorcee).

so, if movies are real indications of social behaviour and life lessons, than what are these stories telling us? is it that it’s not an easy search to find that mr./ms right? or is that, always cast a doubt over who you found coz later in u’r life, maybe then only the right mr./ms right will show up? hmm...

go see this movie. i’m sure you’ll love it. n maybe u can share a piece of your mind then...

WATCH out!

pagi2 buta, lps masuk keje, rehat2 sambil panaskn enjin (ntok keje), kak mas (opismate/ mentor kt Azmi nih) tanya, "KAT MANA NAK BELI JAM NTOK BDK LELAKI A?!"

membuatkan aku trus mencari calculator. sorry, maths definately is not my element. kenapa?! untuk mengira (of course).



sbnarnya, the last time my wrist was accessorised wif a watch, was when I was in my (early) Form 4! after endlessly adoring SWATCH(es) n come to learn that they don't last, abah belikan jam tangan yg agk mahal (at dat time la). 3/10 gaji chambering! excited giler. ada dates, day n even graphic mlm siang lengkap dgn bulan n matahari pusing2 ikut waktu/ hari. the watch was adored dearly by all peers n the owner definately (kecik2 dh suke b'lagak... he he he)

nak dijdkn cerita, sementara mnunggu nak pndh skolah (after raya msuk SMAPK ngan sheque/mazza) masihler menjadi bdk irshad waktu itu. n awl2 tahun tuh, bln posa, so being an obedient religios skoolboy, pegila terawih tiap2 mlm. terawih kt skolah 8 ja... satu mlm tuh (tak tau la lailatul qadar ka apa) tertinggal jam tgn tuh kt lm loker! maybe sbb b'gegas nk ke surau sbb b'buke dgn leisurely n siap2 dgn malasnya! so, bla teringat tuh (minus the ketdk khusyukan b'jemaah) balik la (b'lari more accurately) p hostel after abes terawih n b4 pegi moreh (def: mkn2 lps terawih). n the watch is gone! yes, STOLEN!!! how shocked i was, i still have the picture of that nite in my mind up till now, and yes, siap ingat the detail up to what i was wearing! org ckp workers kt blkg curi, tp ntahler... it was too fast at that time, n tak lama lps tuh dh transfer. so, regaining back the lost watch n calling for a search for it, was somethin' not firmly done.

so, lepas2 tuh, trus merajuk tak mo pki jam! awl2 form 4 lps raya n masa pndh skolah tuh, still ada 1 jam, tapi smpn dlm beg. tak pakai kt tgn pun! smpi jam tuh mmg dh tak leh guna lgsung...

n slps puas mengire, dis year, its been 11 years since i last wore one n asking me where to shop 4 one... eeeeeeeeeeeeeeet... not good question people! he he he

recently, masa my bro blk kg, mama sebok soh dia adiahkan jam tgn to me. but as my bro (firmly) believes on making his (cute) lil bro independent (as hell), he refused sponsoring it n ask my mum ntok let it be. in other words, if I want one, go buy u'rself. how inspiring!!!

but on the goodside, i still don't think I'm all prepared for one... sbb i think hving a cool hndphone where not only u can text people, mms or even take or make calls but having it as a piece of a time keeper would make me look more upbeat, beyond tommorowish n techie... he he he.

so people, don't bother flagging u'r piguet or u'r longines... becoz i don't care! i totally do... i might drool of thinkin' how rich u r though...

just be mindful, time whenever mention shall be deemed as an essence!!!

p/s: hebat kn selection of watches these days, yg ni siap ada gigi biru (blue tooth) function!

unoPROBLEMO


it's my (utmost) ideal world, to wake up wif no problems (AT ALL!) or even better, all problems are duly solved!

smlm ada bwt plumbing sket, pulas punya pulas -> PATAH/PECAH! peribahasa melayu applicable : bagai tikus membaiki labu! so, someone has to run to the h/ware store and buy a new part or we'll be having a leaking sink for ages (its a common attitude of us mere mortals to ignore problem until it does not burst... procastinate some people say). so, sementara org pg bli, i took a nap! selfishly of me... to my defense, i believe that too many cooks, spoiled a meal! ok tak alsn?!

so, waking up from my deep sleep, everythin' was fine. the broken part has been replaced, other household needs mending has been done and the aftermath (ayaq bah yg melimpah) has been cleared and wiped.

so, the notion i have, BEST KAN KALU SMUA PROBLEM CAN DISAPPEAR AFTER A GOOD (NITE) SLEEP/ NAP?!

yeah rite!

as pretentious as i could be; that has forever been my motto. kalu pening ka, muscle pain ka apa, i will always try to lay down hoping to wake up afresh. yes it did work, but only for a (fortunate) few times. and as i grew (wiser), i learnt that in life, you don't ignore problems, you solve them. coz if u don't, it will only hang on to you, even in u'r sleep!

curently tgh bca shopaholic ties the knot, something that my sis pesan ntok bwk come this april vacay. the heroin simply shoved her problems under the carpet and the problem worsen each day. up to the point that only miracles can uproot the dilemma she has. imagine this, having people plan u'r wedding in 2 diff continents on the very same day at the exact same time wif the same guests n of course the only bride n groom! hmmm

so, yes, in an idle/ ideal world, sleeping over problems may seem like a solution but in the real world, facing them is what makes u human...

~this post is dedicated to my 3 years old housemate who has forever been a good help around the (imiginary, london) flat of ours!

talentTIME/TINE?!



D. Archuleta singing FALLIN' by Alicia Keys

the new instalment of the AI is full and bursting with talents! D. Archuleta, D. Cook, M. Johns n dat dreadlock guy. its so hard when u have such a hyped show to ensure dat u’ll never loose track of what u actually wants to offer in the first place. sorry for my conservatism, but a singing competition, how glamorised and controversial it may become, should still always look for a singer/performer... not an entertainer who can only attract people to the TV set, but can do nothing with his talent. Wonder if our own local talent scout show will ever be jam packed wit talent as the latest outing of AI does. Susah tul kalu wt program just for the polemik n kontroversi. Critique2 plak cakap jer pandai, tapi diri sendiri hancus!! Cukup2la mendera telinga n emosi khalayak Malaysia.

anyway, the above is a clipping of d. archuletta in his child(ish) years (which u might easily stumble upon if his singing is what u search 4 in the utube), though skrg pun still a minor (by virtue of law)... he he he... enjoy!
