Shu told me about it and we went to check it out yesterday.Saw one of his junior classmates performing on an Indian musical instrument called a Tabla.The dude played alongside a solo keyboard.It was awesome.
I tried playing a Gamelan instrument called a Gambang.One guy taught us how to read the notes which were basically numbers.The trick was to use both hands and making sure that both hands hit the right note.Not as easy as it sounds.
We stopped by at a booth covered with prints in brown.The booth was all about the Fiji Islands.The guy at the booth told us about the weapons which were mostly clubs.We learned how to fully utilize the club coz each side of the club serves a different function.Usually,the head of the victim goes to the chief of the tribe (to be eaten of course) while the rest of the body goes to the tribe.Then,we looked at a whole bunch of necklaces.Some were made of boar tusks.Some were made of sea shells.The coolest thing I learned from the guy at the booth was about the tribal art and how they were made and who makes them and where they come from.The guy also explained how the inks made from mangrove trees produces different shades of brown depending on the duration of time you leave it to boil.One long sheet of clothe made from a tree bark was taken out and wrapped around Shu.The guy said that the color of the sheet indicates that the person wearing it is of royal blood and the shade of the color indicates where he comes from.How cool is that?!
Next,Shu and I stopped by at the Saudi Arabian booth.Shu picked up a sword just to see how heavy it was.We were given dates and some Arabian Coffee which we burnt both our tongues.The coffee was nice though.Very mild.Like tea.
The people at the Yemen booth were quite happy to see us.They even let us try out their costumes and had our pictures taken.Their daggers are awesome and very handy.

Kecik looked so bored so I took him for a ride
Qarim may be right.Kecik does have that longing for an adventure look.He'd get bored easily and he's always begging for Shu and I to take him along whenever we leave in the morning.
Anywho,being the troublemakers like we are,Shu and I almost got busted in UNITEN today.He didn't have his I.D. on and I didn't have a visitor's pass.I sat in his class and became his study buddy today.I also drove him around coz his left knee is injured from yesterday's accident during the rugby game we had.
I am so trying out the new Sims 3!

I am still recovering by the way........Not sure if singing is a good idea anytime soon.........

Prince Court Medical Center,KL
Aimi was transferred there from Ampang Putri.She was told that she could leave but Shu's parents weren't so sure if that was a good idea coz she probably needs to be supervised still.Sure enough,she did need more help.Last night,she said that her whole body was in pain and today,she couldn't eat anything coz she kept throwing up.Mum said maybe it was the meds she's been on since the accident.
Apart from all that and the fact that she was exhausted when I went to see her a while ago,she's fine.Her husband (Nizar) and her baby (Irham) were there along with Shu's folks.Nizar seemed like he still had dissatisfactions with the dudes who got Aimi into this.The thing is,nothing can be done (insurance and stuff) until the driver of the other vehicle gets out from the hospital and writes a seperate report plus his confession for being guilty.
Later on,Shu's parents took Irham to Shu's other sister's house.Shu and I sent them there and then we picked up Hana (Shu's first sister's daughter) and all of us went out for dinner.Later on,Kak Long (Shu's first sister) joined us.I had fun talking to Shu's dad.He was asking me about my plans in the future.He seemed surprised to hear that I am planning to go away from my family.He asked me what my folks think of it.My folks (mum especially) wants us all to go away.
After that,Shu and I took our time driving around KL before heading home ^_^
Shu is fast asleep now.He's been up all day since morning.

more than just luck
Aimi (Shu's sister) got into an accident yesterday morning on the DUKE highway as she was on her way to work.It was a VERY BAD accident but she survived.Two guys in a Satria were tailgating her and as she moved to the slow lane,the Satria drove too close and accidentally hit the tail of her car.
Aimi's car flipped forward and then hit the wall on the left side of the road and then rolled over ending up with all four wheels on top.LUCKILY,she DID NOT have her baby in the car with her.LUCKILY,her rear window was broken and gave her enough space to crawl out from the completely wrecked vehicle.LUCKILY,she did NOT pass out so she managed to get out of the car quickly.LUCKILY,she drives a HONDA CITY.The airbag saved her life.If it was any Malaysian car,the driver would have ended up dead.
She is currently admitted at a hospital in KL.Shu said she's quite stabil now.I was told that she has a huge cut from one side above her nose to the other side above her lips.Shu said her lips were swollen yesterday.I'm planning to go see her tonight just to see how she is.Thank God,her husband did NOT take the offer to go offshore in Vietnam so he's around to keep her company.
I,on the other hand,am sick.My immunity system is super low these days.I have a swollen tonsil and a slight flu.No,it's not influenza A or anything like that.My mum keeps telling me to take supplementaries like Cod Liver Oil and some vitamins.Why not,more pills!
I spent the weekend having to share my tatami with my sister.That alongside the fact that she also shared my comforter and my pillow.I spent sleepless nights getting her elbow and her hand off my face and sometimes,I'd wake up from the shocking cold surface of the tile floor.

mangkuk ayuns and idiots
I just asked if Qarim would have wanted to drive the car and he declined the offer.He's not that interested in driving anyways.Well,I know one very good reason why he doesn't even wanna try.We are stuck with a bunch of people whom only know how to drive but don't have a clue about what signal lights and lines on the roads are for.
For example,I never knew that many people are still anal about stopping at junctions.Most of these creatures who fall under the category of idiots would just zoom out of junctions into the main road.And after pulling such stunts,they'd drive extremely slow on the road and later on just turning into a tiny road absent mindedly<---without any signals indicating that they were about to do so.
Also,there are other types of creatures from the lowest part of the food chain who would park at a turning.One very good example would be those who'd park at the turning near Devi's Corner of TTDI.Buses would have to take up space from the lane(s) from the opposite direction just to turn into the lane.If ever these buses were to scratch of simply run into any of these cars,they would probably make the headlines of tomorrow's newspapers.Most of these cars are expensive cars.Too expensive that they cannot afford to pay for proper parking spaces.Then again,maybe they just cannot bring themselves up to walk a few meters to the restaurant.
Other insignificant but annoying assholes would just park at tiny turning,leaving very little space for other cars to pass.There was one silly fella who double parked outside a parking lot with the words KHAS printed in yellow on the ground of that lot.It was way pass office hours :/ and it definitely WAS NOT a fire hydrant.

more collisions
I was totally blown away a couple of years back when I foundout that LinZy's friends and probably some family members are associated or was associated with people whom I know from my end of the world.Then,when I met Shu and he told me that he is friends with some people in TTDI,I was surprised to find out that these dudes are kids from my school.We used to be schoolmates.Tonight,when Shu and I went over to Dan's house (next to where I used to live) Shu told me that one of the guys coming out from Dan's place looked familiar.He totally knew the guy!The dude is Eno's batchmate back in school.I was totally spooked when I heard Dan mentioning the name Clone.Clone is Shu's best buddy since his days in KYSM.It turns out that Clone and Dan and that dude we met at Dan's place were all together in the states to study.

When I was Ili's engagement ceremony a couple of years ago,I kept thinking what it was that made her change and what it was that made her want to be there where she was on the road to spending the rest of her life with that guy she was getting engaged with at the time.Now,being here where I am,I cannot explain why I want to do this.All I know is that I want to and that I am happy to be here-on my way to spending my entire life with Shu.
A few years back,I was far from deciding a date for my wedding.Everyone (myself included) thought I'd probably be the last one to tie the knot.Some people still cannot absorb the fact just yet and everytime we talk about it,they'd have a hard time believing that I am old enough to do this.

Gemok's ultimate escape.........
She didn't get very far though.Just under my neighbour's car next door.I have no idea how or when she got there but this morning,she couldn't get back coz she still hasn't recovered.Every morning,I'd hear her scream downstairs coz Kak Yah would give her meds before letting her into my room.She hates being carried around and she hates taking medications.She'd usually be all grumpy when she enters my room but after a while,she'd get over it and fall asleep.
RadioEdit:Band update
We'll begin recording by the 26th (INSYALLAH) if all goes well.The drill,of course,will be recording the drums first.We have yet to have another band meeting ASAP since we still haven't figured out which song to record FIRST and how we're gonna get Rashid to play to a live recording of our songs.
Still a work in progress.
Yumi suggested we'd record Mental Vacation first.Not a bad choice actually.......

sneak preview........hahahahaha!!!!!!
I got engaged yesterday (July 19th 2009)!Loads happened.There were a whole lot of FIRST TIMES such as what I did to my hair and what I wore and what I had on and stuff.I didn't have time to blog about it yesterday coz I was dead tired by the time I was by myself.Also,I had class this morning so I needed the sleep.
I have to keep in mind that yesterday was the first and shall be the last time I'm ever using liquid eyeliners.Black liquid eyeliners and mascara!My aunt and my sister couldn't make up their minds about what color my lips should have been so they kept putting on lisptick and lip liners and then erased it and started over.I think they did it for about 3 times.
OMFG!I so got my hair curled!With a curling thong,of course.The typical blow drying method could never work.My hair was first straightened and then curled.Don't think I'd wanna do that again.It was fun while it lasted though.
Ili came and I was so glad and surprised to see her.Ash was nice enough to come help us clean the house and all.He was scrubbing the porch for God sakes!Eventually,he was appointed as the photographer.LinZy,Yumi and Maj turned up later in the night.Thanks!I wasn't sure if I was allowed to invite anyone coz I'm always kept outside of discussions.....so sorry for not inviting you guys officially.
The negotiations went on pretty quick.Shu's family arrived at 2:30pm.Before 3pm,everything was settled.All of Shu's sisters and brother were present.Also,Shu's uncle and aunt and all their kids (Hafiz,Fakhri and Ikhwan and their other 3 younger siblings) My aunts and grandma drove from JB.My other aunts were already at my place in the morning.My uncle had been helping out since the night before.Aunty Intan,Farah and Aunty Gina had helped so much.Aunty Intan and Farah did all the hantaran while Aunty Gina made the cupcakes.A whole lot of other people helped in as well like Kak Ti and Kak Yah.My sister and Naim.Oh yeah!My nephew and my tiny cousins came too ^_^
It was pretty weird coz usually when the house is all cleared up for kenduris and stuff,my tiny cousin and I would be the ones to wrestle and play and run around the carpeted floor.It was also weird coz up till the time I had to get dress,it felt as though I was still part of the clean up crew like I usually would be.I had a blast.
More pictures shall be posted up soon ;)
Enjoy the sneak previews........thanks to Ash!

between extremely bored or simply takde kerja
Shu finally did it.The one thing I've been wanting to do all this while.He finally pulled that old tube down from hanging on the wall of that house with the swimming pool we'd usually pass on our way to the park.He pulled it down from the wall into the drain.After that,we ran like there's no tomorrow all the way to the other end of the alley.Then,when we realized that noone saw us,we just laughed out loud all the way home.
Several minutes after we got home,we realized that it was still early so we played badminton at the alley near the house.Azim's friend joined us and we started hitting high with the wind and all.One hit went out of control and the shuttle got stuck on the tree from one of the houses compounds.Shu tried to get it down by throwing his slipper at it in hopes that it would fall.The first time that happened,it fell.The second time Shu pulled the same stunt,his slipper ended up in the compound of that house.I thought we were done for but Shu (dengan muka tak malu,walking with one slipper) gave salam to the owner of the house and asked if he could get his slipper back.The lady looked weirded out but let Shu take his slipper anyways.
Oh yeah,Fei Mao got hit by a light vehicle (Dr. Clement suspects it was a motorbike) She's still alive but she was limping.She was practically dragging her hind leg.The doc said she has a muscle concussion.We're still on a lookout to see if she is suffering from any form of internal bleeding.After struggling and getting angry at the vet,she finally got a jap which helped her relax and ease off the pain.So far,there are no signs of blood from her urine or the poo.She's resting now.

Smiley World by Bossini
Why shouldn't we wear the things we buy on the spot and bag our old stuff?
It's been a while since Shu and I got stuff which are identical.It's not like we do it often to begin with but we do have tees which have the same exact prints like the SPCA Take Me Home t-shirt and the PGL Musical ones and the Giordano ones too.........
Anywho,I am very prone to happy looking colorful things these days and from a distance,I spotted a huge smiley face board with loads of colorful t-shirts (yellow mostly).After going around the mall doing what we were supposed to do,we checked out the shop.I picked up a medium sized kid tee and insisted on looking for a t-shirt for Shu.It's yellow-ish orange and it's perfect and happy looking.
My dad was cleaning up the house front for the event happening on Sunday.Shu and I helped in and we realized that my dad was wearing a plain tee with the same color tone.We looked like a bunch of clean up crew.

Alinas,KL
Had class this morning.Shu dropped me off and he went over to CELPAD to get my problems straightened out with them for a bit.After that,realizing that I didn't have anymore classes to go to for the day and that Shu's class was at 4pm,he decided to go look for his songkok for the hantaran with me in KL.
Lunch time wasn't the best time to be in the middle of the city but there we were,stuck in between buses and cabs and cars and people crossing the streets and traffic lights.We parked at some mall and crossed the street since parking is hell in KL.Got what we were looking for and we stopped by at the bookstore next door where Shu got me a Quran.I need to brush up on my reading and stuff IN CASE there is to be a khatam Quran session before our wedding day.
Had lunch in Mutiara Damansara and we managed to stop by at the tailor's shop only to find out that my folks had picked up all my clothes this morning.Went to the bank for a bit and went home.
Shu cameby tonight around 10pm with his cousins.I accidentally left my power adaptor in his car this morning.They joined me along with Aunty Intan,Farah,my uncle,Azim and my mum for drinks and food over at Maulana.
Aunty Intan is decorating and arranging my dulang hantarans so mum and I have been going back and forth to her place as much as she's been doing the same to our place.Uncle Saman actually bought my dad a songkok for my wedding!
Anywho,Gemok (Fei Mao) has issues with me these days.She doesn't sleep in my room anymore and every other time we're hanging out together,she'd be angry at me.Today,she crossed the line.She's gonna sleep downstairs in the lounge tonight!
Speaking of these kiddies,Shu said Kecik was being a pain when he was gonna get me from the airport on Sunday.He kept making noise and when he realized that Shu wasn't responding,he climbed up from the back of the driver's seat and made noise at Shu's ear!Shu had to stop at some shop on the highway to get him food and water.Then,he slept on Shu's lap all the way to the airport.

kedai gunting rambut Ananda@TTDI
I have never been to a barber shop before and today,Shu needed a quick haircut so since we were already in the area,we decided to go Ananda's.It was so cool!The barber was quick and before we realized it,he was done with Shu's hair.

brown bag kecil
Hah!Finally!A skate shop!The dude at the shop said they just moved there last Tuesday from Shah Alam.AWESOMENESS!!!!!Shu said that the skaters in Shah Alam are freakin' awesome.I'mma go check that skatepark sometime.The last couple of times I was there was to go get something from Shu's classmate........oh yeah,Shahrul's (LabRat) studio is there.Oh yeah,Rashid's bike brokedown on Friday so Shu and I met him halfway down at the gas station.
*Ada motor tapi tak service!Spark plug rupa macam dah berkurun tak tukar!
Got up late this morning.My body is aching.This miss smarty pants was so damn sleepy and tired yesterday but still went running and played badminton at the park yesterday.RUNNING!Something I thought I'd never be able to do ever again since we moved.Then,I was even more demotivated when that stupid shoe thief took my running shoes TWICE!I'd like to tie the idiot to a tree full of fire ants!
Anywho,Shu and I had lunch at the mall of all places which explains how we got to know about the skateshop where he got me this awesome hat my mum says ridiculous looking.I love it anyways.We finally went back to the chocolate shop for those yummylicious choc coated coffee beans!Saw these awesome pair of white shoes.We would have gotten it (for Shu) but the cutting was too narrow so we ditched it.
*sigh*
However,my baju nikah is awesome looking!We stopped by at the tailor's shop to see if it's ready and it is!OMFG!I'm gonna need a bit of height but at least I know that I didn't put on weight which is good coz they'd have to alter it otherwise.Yey!Shu took a picture of my engagement ring.I know I'm not supposed to see it but I just had to!It's pretty!
Shu told me to NOT get myself majorly injured anytime soon.I can't promise but I'll try ^_^ Of course,that would mean that I cannot play badminton against my dad coz he'd so totally kill me.

weekend away
Left for my grandma's place down south on Friday night.My cousin had some kenduri thingy going on and since I haven't gone to see my relatives there in a while,I figured it was probably a good idea to go.I forgot that my cousins still had no idea I'm going to get engaged this coming weekend!It was crazy.Had a lot of catching up to do with my aunt and grandma as well.We had a swell time over dinner last night.My flight today back home was at noon.Shu came to get Azim and I from the airport (along with Kecik!)
Both,Shu and I are equally exhausted.After sending me off on Friday night,he went over to his sister's place to wait for his dad coz he went back to Terengganu with him late that night.He just got back on a bus this morning.He's been talking to his entire family about this coming weekend.His dad underestimated (or possibly misunderstood) the gravity of the situation.He thought it was a merisik session when it is in fact an engagement ceremony.That explains why he's been so cool about everything all this time.
Some changes had been made.Knowing my mum,from the moment Shu told her what's gonna happen this weekend,she's been rearranging and relisting and rechecking her list(s).While we were out for badminton at the park today,she got Aunty Intan and Farah over to go over the new plans.
The reason Shu's dad insists on having the occassion on Sunday instead of Friday is because all of Shu's sisters will be at work.The wisdom behind this little change of plan is that my aunt and my uncle will be able to come over on Sunday ^_^ I have no idea is Tasha is around.Not sure if Qarim will be home.It doesn't matter.I have shitloads to do from tomorrow onwards.I have no idea what's going to happen coz the one and only engagement ceremony I have ever been to was Ili's last year which seemed like the wedding itself.
Here and now,I am trying to get some sleep coz I've been up all night last night.I was trying to find a spot to sleep but ends up moving from one place to another.I couldn't sleep in the plane.I never do.Especially on a 50-minute flight!For someone who is so afraid of take-offs and landings (and turbulences),I got window seats for both my flight to JB and back!I tried drawing and reading just to get my mind off what's happening out on the wing but everytime the plane moved a little more than normal and the pressure changes,I'd panic BIG TIME!I could have sworn I was hyperventilating.Even that mak cik sitting on the other aisle at the other end was calm!WTF?!

Ed and/or Ted!
<---this is Ed.......or maybe Ted...... 
<---inspired by CIMB's octopus 
<---counseling Kecik 
<---Shu's half covered flash effect shot 
<---light up,light upIt's been windy in the evenings these days.Not the best weather for badminton.Eversince Azim bought the rugby ball,Shu and I have been tossing and kicking the damn thing all over the park.We're planning on a tiny game on the 18th or 19th morning.Naim said he wants in.Kamal maybe joining us.Rashid and my sister SHOULD be around.Haven't told Azim and his friends yet.We might as well have a picnic at the same time.
The terrain at the Zaaba park could break someone's leg!It's horrible!Shu sprained his ankle!Just tossing and kicking caused me muscle cramps.I couldn't even cough properly last night coz the muscles in my lower tummy was killing me.
Anywho,my side of TTDI had a blackout last night.The funny thing was only Shu,Azim,Ash and I were at home at the time.We were 15 minutes till the finishing of that CSI episode then everything went dark.Azim and I grabbed our bokkens IN CASE anyone broke-in.The whole area went dark!Then,we realized that those trucks we saw while having dinner earlier were mobile generators.One was parked right across the street from our house.

was watching LA Ink while waiting for Shu and my dad to get home at about 2am this morning
One girl walked into Kat's shop and said she wants to have her very first tattoo.It was huge and it was on her back.Her story was sad.Very sad.It took her 7 years to finally graduate from college.One of the many things that held her back was the death of her fiancée.She said it took her a whole year off school for her to get herself back on track.That must have been really hard for her to have gone through.

<---sama saja anak and bapak.Menyibuk saja! Sunday, July 05, 2009
fear
People ask and tell me that Shu and I need to space out a little away from eachother from time to time.I think we do give eachother space.The only reason I don't want to be away from him is because I keep thinking that life is short and that I don't want to be apart should anything happens to either one of us.I think the pain of going through life knowing that I wasn't there with him at the last second of his life or vice versa scares me a lot.
4 hours at the emergency room at the hospital was more than enough to know what it's like to not know what's gonna happen in the next second eventhough we were right next to eachother.We are after all,mortals.This very fact kills me.

hantaran
It is a concept.A very cultural ritual.About giving and recieving things.Related to marriage.It took me so long to fully understand what it is about.Not that I have.I'm just trying to get this all through alive with Shu.
We have been listing and re-listing and re-listing what we want and need for the hantaran.It's weird coz I am not the type of person to want things.The things that I want cannot be bought.I do not shop.I do.Not as much as a regular person would.I am the worst person to go shopping with.I can never answer the question "What do you want?" whenever we're at a shopping mall.
Anywho,I have about 1 or 2 items short from the hantaran list and I seriously cannot think of anything I want.I know that I'd like to get a laptop for Shu.That's the only thing I really want to do now.And I want Kecik to snap out of his miseries and pain and just be himself again.The crazy kitten he used to be........
The one person I shouldn't ask regarding this whole hantaran issue would be my sister but I do talk to her about it anyways coz I like talking to her.Right now is not the best time.She's going through a major sugar rush and she keeps asking things she doesn't wanna know.
My only concern right now is the period of time I have to go through before marrying Shu.I doubt if I can survive.I have no idea how people can go on being in a relationship while living so far away from eachother.I can't.My life have shifted so much that I don't know what it's like anymore to wake up knowing that I won't see him the moment I step out from my room.

counting down
It's been a long 2 months and I have gotten used to waking up every single day to seeing Shu every morning.I can't imagine what the next 4 months is going to be like since we've been doing loads of stuff together all this time.Seriously,it could kill me and if I don't buck up,I might just die halfway through the semester.
On the brighter side of things,Shu's final word is that we will wed latest by November 2009 (INSYALLAH-eventhough we'd really wanna get it done by October!).All the preparations are halfway done although I know that I am missing some things in the checklist like a photographer and make-up artist and probably a hairstylist.Haha!
Mum called the tailor who is doing/has done my akad nikah outfit.Shu said that our wedding rings are ready.We probably need to alter it a little bit or so.I need to stay healthy and injured-free.I need to go over my workout routine!This current one could kill me within a matter of days!
We still have a matter of months to get things ready.Aunty Intan is helping out with the door gifts.Mum has paid the downpayment for the hall rental for the reception next year!
P.S.:Eno-san (Cheryl) so sorry we couldn't wait for you guys to come home.I'm still gonna make my sister wear that chicken outfit!Hahahahahahaaaa!!!!!

Gemok & her thinking spot
<---Time orang nak masak,time tuh la dia nak makan!

Shu had been wanting to cook me grilled stingray since he got back from Terengganu last week.We finally went to the market not so early this morning and got the fish.Mum was out with my sister.Kak Yah was out.Azim was upstairs with his friends.Ash was in the lounge watching TV.I have no idea where my dad went.The only thing my mum told Shu and I was "Don't set my kitchen on fire!" before she left.We didn't.It's clean and neat.Just the way she left it.
I helped Shu grill the fish while he made the sauce.We had a hard time improvising coz we ran out of vinegar.Halfway through,I made Shu some omelette.We made a pretty good team.When everything was cooked and cleaned,mum got home.She always gets annoyed coz we'd usually cook just enough for the both of us.It is still under experimental level.We wouldn't wanna cause any harm to other people IF anything went wrong.
Now we know that between Shu and I,he is definitely a better cook.I'll stick to desserts.Hahahaha!

Wetland Park@Putrajaya
<---that was where we went for the boat ride (where Shu studied for his midterms with me in the middle of the lake at NOON!!!!!!)
<---the manmade island we never got to go toWe got to Putrajaya at about 11:50am.That would be 10 minutes earlier than when we were there last month!Hahaha!We were actually looking for the flamingos which were at the wetland park on the other side.
Of course,we picked the perfect time of the day to be in the middle of the park.The sun was scorching hot and I could hardly open my eyes.The mosquito bites were stinging and the giant ants looked like they could kill a person!
We had fun though.I never thought I'd see and hear the flamingos.There were also a couple of mandarin ducks as well.Those looked like they were shoved aside coz they were just the minorities in the lake.Hahahahaha!
We got home in time for a badminton game.Now we are just extremely exhausted.We haven't even recovered from yesterday's exhaustion and we were at it again today.I would probably be the only one on the court diving on my knees and rolling around from left to right trying to save a shuttle :/
went to see the flamingos today
<---On the seeing tower
<---I wanted to capture the heat
<---these birds sound like wildboars!
