guitar oh guitar

yeah..its been a while... and now its nearly 2 months i'm staying and being jobless at home...(owh...seriously, jobless is the most uncool job on earth!)

i can feel my brain slowly rotting inside...

so, this 2 months, i had develop new interest...watching football games and playing the guitar...

now, lets talk about the guitar first...

well...not to brag, but i've managed to learn playing guitar by just 5 days..and guess what, youtube is my sifu!

(oh youtube! tq very much! u save my pocket from the expensive guitar's lesson)....haha....

i've learned the basic chords and some tips on changing of the cords..and surprisingly, most of the songs use those basic chords...so now, i can proudly say that i'm now able to sing along while playing the guitar..(dulu2 asyik kagum giler dgn org yg pandai main gitar n nyanyi same...selalu jeles bile tgk org main gitar...hehe) WOHOO!~~~

p/s: nak tahu rahsia??dulu pun slalu berangan nk dpt bf/husband yg pandai main guitar..sbb terase macho la sgt2...skng pn masih terase nk jugak yg mcm tu..bole jamming same2..hihi (ketawa gatal..)... tp if dpt yg tak pandai main pn ok jugak...cuz i can still play and sing for him..and only for him...hihihihi (ketawa gatal sekali lagi) ;P

some of the songs that i managed to play are

-kau ilhamku (lagu wajib utk org yg nak main gitar..haha)

-baby by justin bieber

-aishiteru by zivilia

-sebelum cahaya by letto

-i'm yours by jason mraz

-demi waktu by ungu

-semua ttg kita by peter pan

-fall for u by secondhand serenade

- buat aku tersenyum by SO7 (this is the only song yg dh boleh main n nyanyi tanpa tgk chord..ececeh..hehe)

pendek cerita..byk lagi lagu2 lain..sbb semuanya basically menggunakan chord2 yg lbh kurang sama...kene blaja speed jugak..supaye tak nampk kalut time change chord..

so, next step, nk blaja technique strumming plak..and also plucking...

the song yg dah bole main tanpa tgk notes is "buat aku tersenyum" by SO7...(tersenyum bangga..wahaha)

owh, lupe plak nak cerita, sewaktu tgn ini sedang gatal2 berlagak terror utk men"tune" kan gitar, the "e string" telah terputus..(toing!!)..haiyo...disebabkn itu, dh tak berani nk gatal2 tune gitar tu...so bile main, bunyi dia agak lari sedikit..haha...nak hntr ke kedai utk pasang balik string and tune the guitar back..tp dh hampir seminggu gitar tu still mcm tu..huhu...

tp, walaupn keadaan guitar yg mcm tu...i will still practice..hehe

ok, utk football..nantikan entry yg seterusnya...bye2 for now...

jom memasak lagi!

well, like i said before this, my azam during this holiday ialah belajar memasak dr mama sebyk yg mungkin...ilmu harus diturunkan! hehe..
ptg td berkesempatan memasak laksa and kuah durian..
sedap giler i tell u..

MASAK LAKSA PENANG!
masak laksa sng je..utk kuah...rebus ikan (mama gne ikan kembung n sardin) and then asingkan isi dgn tulang.
dlm air rebusan ikan tadi, masukkan asam keping, daun kesum and bunga kantan. continue rebus..
then, sementara tunggu rebusan, masukkan bawang merah, cili kering, serai, lengkuas, bunga kantan dan daun kesum dlm blender.then blend semua...
atas kuali yg berbeza, tumiskan hasil blend tadi...tumis smpai pecah minyak...
then, utk periuk dgn rebusan td..masukkan isi ikan...tulang2 tu bolel blend and ditapiskan sblm masuk dlm periuk jugak..
lpas tu, masukkan hasil tumisan td dlm periuk
(this technique is known as "tumis darat")
pastu..kacau and tambah garam...siap kuah!

utk laksa,rendam mee laksa yg dibeli dlm air and asam keping..rebuskan...then toskan...siap!

sedap dihidang dgn telur rebus, salad, daun pudina, bwng merah n cili padi!

and murah btol rezeki harini..mama pergi meeting ptg tadi..balik2 trus mama tunjuk satu bekas yg diisi dgn durian. "kwn mama bg td sbb mama puasa..jom kopek nyior..kita buat kuah"...bile dijenguk ke dlm bekas, ada dlm 10 ulas durian...hmm..time ni sbr jer la..sbb puasa juga, so hanya bole tgk..tgn hilmi yg tak puasa pula yg laju menyambar seulas durian lalu "ngap"..lenyap trus dlm mulut...*jeles*
uncle cina sebelah ada bg kat mama nyior 3 biji (tQ uncle!)..so, mama dgn penuh semangatnyer telah mengkukur nyior utk santan! and mama puasa ok!
(i always impressed with mama..the energy that she have..even puasa, still bole gi jogging pg..then ptg2 bole kukur nyior lagi! mama mmg superwomen!)
so, jom masak Kuah durian! sgt senang and hasilnyer sgt sedap~~

KUAH DURIAN
masukkan durian (tak perlu buang biji) ke dlm periuk..
masukkan santan kemancur (santan perahan kedua setelah patinyer diambil)
then, letakkan daun pandan utk bau wangi...
lpas tu, bile dh mula mendidih, masukkan ggula putih n gula perang secukup rasa..
tehn kacau..then, lastly, masukkan pati santan tadi...then kacau sebentar..
siap!

kuah durian ni tersgt la best if makan dgn roti yg lembut (cth: roti gardenia)..

harini saya bepuasa juga..(mama n ayah pun..hilmi jer yg tak)
so, time berbuka td mcm pening skit..tak tau nk makan ape dulu..
mama masak ikan goeng, sambal belacan and masak lemak nenas..(mmg kombinasi yg meletop! sdp sgt)..then ada kuah durian and laksa..
so, tahu tak what did i do just now??haha..plzz follow the sequence
1. buka puasa dgn seteguk air teh panas
2. then makan sekeping roti dgn kuah durian dlm mangkuk kecil..
3.makan 1/4 pinggan nasi dgn ikan grg + nenas masak lemak+ kicap + sambal belacan
4. sabung makan kuah durian dgn 5 keping roti (gile kan!! sbb sgt sedap..tak dpt den nk control..haha)
5. habiskan segelas air teh panas itu

eh2??mcm ada yg tertinggal jer....haaa...lakse kan??
well, semangkuk laksa selamat landing ke dlm perutku dlm jam 10.30 mlm 9makan sambil tonton bola Msia vs Lubnan n guess what, Msia menang..yeay!!)

and now, im writing this...i'm so full...dan bersyukur diatas rezeki and nikmat yg Allah telah berikan..Alhamdulillah...

p/s: esok kene ikut mama gi lake garden la nampaknyer...hahah ;P

jom main masak2..

masa terus berlalu, umur pun makin bertambah, tanggungjawab juga akan jadi lebih berat.
so, sebelum kene lapor diri untuk berkhidmay kepada negara tercinta, maka adalah rugilah jika masa ynag ada ini tidak digunakan dgn sebaik mungkin.
best duduk kat rumah, tapi if lama2 pun boring gak.rasa tak best if duduk saje and takde keje (seriously, penganggur adalah pekerjaan yg paling sucks kat dunia ni)..hidup anda jadi tanpa arah tujuan. hari2 pun buat perkara yang sama.nasib baik saya sempat menjumpai jalan keluar dari kebelengguan ini (ahaha, macam rancagan tv la plaks)

i'm very lucky to have a housewife-mother (ape ke bendenyer ni?)..well, senang cakap, ibu surirumah sepanjang masa..mmg best. i can't imagine my life if mama goes to work..mesti sgt tak awesome! (been there when mama used to work 16 years ago) thank god mama berheti and decided to be a full time housewife. (i love u mama)
tapi bila difikirkan balik, kesiannye nnti to my future children..i'm going to be a working mom..saya sendiri tak suka if mama kerja, and i can imagine their feelings too..(wah, jauh kehadapannyer saya berfikir)
but its ok..now, anything is possible.what is more important is not quantity but the quality of the time spend together. (pray that i'll be a good mother..amin..)

eh, dah terjauh la pulak melalut. the point for tjis entry is actually nk ckp ttg diri ini yang belajar memasak dari mama.mama mmg sgt pandai masak (bukan i jer yg ckp ok. bole dikatakan mama mmg sgt popular dgn talent memasaknya dikalangan family, jiran tetangga dan juka penduduk sekitar).
nak tau buktinye, well, just look at our family photo...semuanya "sihat2" belaka..hahaha ;P

so, dikala cuti yg masih fresh ini, adalah rugi jika saya tidak berusaha mewarisi talent memasak mama yg sgt awesome itu. harini ikut mama, ayah n kak yoi gi port weld or nama melayunyer Kuala Sepetang. Kak nurul dgn penuh baik hatinyer membeli sekilo lebih udang kertas yg besar2 tu..she ask me to cook butter prawn. tapi i never cook that dish before.nanti if buat and tak sedap, rugi jer udang yang fresh lagi segar dari ladang itu (ops! bukan ladang la..tapi laut! haha)



so, lastly we decided to cook udnag masak rendang. so, sambil2 tu bole ler blaja memasak dari mama. senang jer rupenyer nk buat rendang udang ni.
nak tahu cara mama? begini..

-bersihkan udang (tak perlu bunag kepala, cukup sekadar pototng bahagian yang tajam tu)
-blend bawang merah,serai, halia, kunyit hidup, daun kunyit dan cili kering.
-letakkan bahan yg dah blend tu dlm kuali.
-then masukkan santan (masukkan santan yg cair tu dulu)
pastu, masukkan bawang, daun kunyit, halia and serai yang diricik.
- then, masak sampai pekat. pastu, bile dah pekat sikit, masukkan pati santan..lastly, masukkan udang tadi bile santan dah menggelegak.
mama ckp, if buat rendang seafood (udang/kerang) tak perlu gune byk sgt halia.nnti tak sedap.and if buat rendang ayam or daging, bhn mentah dh masukkan dulu sekali time awl2 tu...(kalau udang, masukkan last skali sbb tak nk udang tu over cook and mengecut thus hilang manisnyer..)

lpas tu, walla! siap la rendang udang..
makan dgn nasi putih panas, kicap and timun..mmg aweseome lah!
(thanx mama! ;D)


eh2..ni bukan gambar hasilnyer tadi tau..tapi it looks something like this la..(ape nak buat, den takdo camera..so, tok dapek la eden nk tangkap gamba..huhu)

udang ni if buat masak minang pun sedap gak..mama ckp masak minang and rendang tak beza sgt..if masak minang, kne gune byk lengkuas and bawang putih..tu jer pun bezanyer..hehe..
ok la..my new azam, nak belajar memasak dari mama sebyk yg mungkin!

p/s: bak kata org tua, "org perempuan ni, belajar la setinggi mane pun, tapi if tak pandai memasak, tak best!" 9ahaha..yer ker org2 tua ckp cmni?cm lain jer..ahaha..blasah jer la) ;P

masjid impian

melihat rakan2 membina masjid (setelah berjaya membina cita2 bergelar Dr) makes me happy.i'm soo happy for them.for me, wedding is a very beautiful event...
and i love attending them, especially if pasangan pengantin adalah kawan seperjuangan.
congratulations to all my friends yang sudah berjaya membina masjid impian mereka.
semua kelihatan sama cantik and sama padan..
yg perempuan kelihatan sgt gojes..while yg lelaki kelihatan sungguh macho and tampan..
bak kata pepatah, "ibarat pinang dibelah dua"..(yeah..i know its cliche..hehe...)

melihat mereka dihari bahagia mereka, makes me think of my own "hari bahagia" as well..
of course, kalau ditanya tentang wedding impian..mesti nak buat yang besar-besaran...mesti grand gitu...ahaha

tapi, itu semua dulu la...time masih muda remaja...( tapi sekarang pun muda lagi ape..kn?kn?hehe)

but if u ask me now,my answer would be..i wish for a very simple and sweet wedding. tak perlu la grand2 sgt.

sweet and simple.

yang penting, everybody that i love and i care (and those who cares for me) attend my wedding. and semua org happy. tak perlu juga hadiah besar2. doa utk kebahagiaan berpanjangan pun dah cukup sgt2. (wah, i sound so matured ;P)

ape2 pun, tahniah sekali lagi buat rakan2...bestnyer korg dah jumpe dgn soulmate korg. and i hope that my soulmate will reveal himself to me soon. haha

Ya Allah, berikanlah yang terbaik buatku...sesungguhnya, hanya ENGKAU sahaja yang tahu apa yang terbaik untukku..amin...

menipu supaya tidak dikatakan menipu

logik kah? aci kah? patut kah?
"menipu supaya tidak dikatakan menipu"
hm..of course, menipu itu berdosa...
kalau tanye budak2 kecil pun, mereka lebih mengetahui...
so, why need the statement?
of course la we have to reject this statement 200%..
so, why need to discuss? cuz there is nothing to discuss...
oleh itu....dengan ini, topik ini ditutup.sekian.

i wish the night will never end...........

to tutors and tiros...
setelah hampir setahun merancang, akhirnya.."malam" itu tiba juga...
it is the night to celebrate..
a night to remember...
a night that will be always close to our hearts...
everybody dress to their best...
it feels like we r in the hollywood as we have the actual red carpet session...
it was indeed expensive but it is totally worth it!

i was incharged in ushering the VVIPs of that night..and have to sit together with them at the VVIP table...yeah, of course.. i prefer to sit with my friends...spending the night together with them...but i believe that everything happens for a reasons...
at the table, had some opportunity to mingle around with the new IIUM Rector, Dean as well as the chief of HTAA...
the best part of it is when one of the Prof pointed out loud to both of us..."are u both happened to be engaged??"...and we both answered together at the same time (ala-ala mcm choral speaking tu).."owh..NO.." sambil memandang each other and smile...hehe

the night was indeed a blast!
i really enjoy myself...love being together with all my friends....
despite with some errors here and there, i think that the night is perfect in every single way...
oh...
i wish the night will never ends...

.....mixed feeling.....

sedih.....
feels like crying rite now...
tomorrow will be the last day....
masih teringat saat pertama melangkah kaki ke uia ini..
time tu sangat naif...takut...dunno what to expect..
and now it seems like it just happen yesterday...seriously...
time flies really2 fast...seriously i tell u...
i can still remember mama n tah helping me cleaning up my room during my taaruf day..
and now, i'm packing back all my stuff to leave this room that i've been stayed for 5 years...
sedih.....
and being together with my friends..thank god Allah had gave me such a wonderful circle of friends...being together during ups and downs..
sedih....
bile sekali memikirkan perkara ini, terasa seperti tidak mahu meninggalkan uia ini..
can i just pause and stay at this moment for a while??
can i???can i??
i just want to enjoy this euphoric period of time...i love this!
huhu....
after this..
no more going to classes/lectures...
no more staying up late finishing up the case writeup..
no more gossiping...no more flirting..no more stalking...
no more discussing...(owh my...i hate all the NOs...)
even tho sometimes i stress out, but now when i'm looking back at it..i just realized that i'm actually love all the things... (to be continued...)
