Nine words women use...

1.) Fine : This is the word women use to end an argument when they are
right and you need to shut up.

2.) Five Minutes : If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour..
Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more
minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3.) Nothing : This is the calm before the storm. This means something,
and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing
usually end in fine.

4.) Go Ahead : This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

5.) Loud Sigh : This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement
often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an
idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing
with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6.) That's Okay : This is one of the most dangerous statements a wom a n
can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard
before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7.) Thanks : A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say
you're welcome.

8.) Whatever : Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!

9.) Don't worry about it, I'll do it : Another dangerous statement, meaning
this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but
is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's
wrong?' For the woman's response refer to #3.Then you RUN!

Received this email from my supervisor in the mornin... woo hoo!! FINALLY.

"Hi Diana,
In view of your involvement in YA** testing, I'll re-assign the following duties to J****e & J**y w.e.f. 1 Sep 08. Please brief them and do a hand over by 29 Aug.."

Teman



Kehangatan mentari menyinari pagi
Derusan hujan mendingini panas
Saling mengiring saling melengkapi
Begitulah kudrat illahi

Kehadiranmu teman bagaikan cahaya
Menerangi taman hatiku yg sepi
Jalin kasih mesra kurnia maha esa
Merestui kemesraan ini

*Andai bunga tiada mekar mewangi
Hancurlah harapan unggas menyepi
Andai dikau menghilang dan menyendiri
Ku terapung hilanglah panduan
Bak hujan di tengah hari
Panas menduri bumi...
Begitulah perasaan pabila bayangmu pun tiada

Keikhlasan hatimu menghangatkan jiwa
Kelembutan suaramu menyejukkan bara
Jernih airmatamu lambang ketulusan
Menemaniku dikala kesepian

Teruslah menyinar mentari pagi
Teruslah menari hujan yg mendingin
Menghijau menyegar menyuburi bumi
Saling menjalin hubungan infiniti...

A quick update..



Yesterday's Johor trip with Mir (Mr. Big Bad wolf) was fun.. it was the the first time that i went somewhere outside singapore without my parents and not for a sch function.. pathetic rite? haha.. so being the "katak bawah tempurung" that i am, i didnt even know what Autopass was and i thought JUSCO was a university name cos it's located at Taman Universiti.. *slaps forehead* jakun betul! haha.. but i really feel at home in m'sia lah.. y?? cos everything's in bahasa melayu! im thinking of migrating there once i retire.. tengoklah mcm mana.. =) overall, the trip was superb! so the next one pegi mana Mir? Thai? Indon? hahah.. macam paham je.. =P

anyway, i can't believe my mom and auntie are trying to matchmake me with some 30 year old guy! do i look that desperate?? HAH, WAT DID YOU SAY! YES??! Bloody hell! hmm.. tapikan, if the 30 year old guy is as _______ *cant think of an appropriate adjective* as the Kadi in my prev post, why not! hahaha..

oklah i gtg now.. till next time.. ciao!

Dan apabila semua ini sampai ke saat matangnya, ia akan terus hilang. Semangat, kata-kata, impian dan keghairahan ini akan pudar.. dan aku pula akan sedar bahawa yang tertanggung di dalam benakku adalah halunisasi yang sia sia sahaja.. Malah, ia juga akan berlalu pulang. Ke tempat asalnya.


"Apabila hati terikat dengan Allah, kembalilah wanita dengan asal fitrah kejadiannya, menyejukkan hati dan menjadi perhiasan kepada dunia - si gadis dengan sifat sopan dan malu, anak yang taat kepada ibu bapa, isteri yang menyerahkan kasih sayang, kesetiaan dan ketaatan hanya pada suami."

i took 1 day leave from work yesterday and just take a look at what greeted me first thing in the morning today.. WTF man.


one big pile of CRAP! *pulls hair*


settled cases..


the toilet.. my sanctuary.. hahah..

oklah back to work.

~ Thinking of.. hmmm... ~

Sehelai baju putih

Dengan ucap bismillah aku menyarungkan baju putih pemberian ikhlas dari nya. Tersenyum aku seketika.. melihat baju bersulamkan benang putih kelabu tersarung rapi ditubuhku. Sambil menatap wajah dan bentuk raga di cermin kaca, kenangan manis dari bermulanya titik pertemuaan kita datang mengisi ruang minda.. membuatku terus tersenyum. Aku manghela nafas kesyukuran.. Tanpa izinNya, pertemuan kami tidak mungkin tercipta, dan perasaan ini tidak mungkin ada. Alhamdulillah..

Aku sendiri tidak percaya dengan keadaanku sekarang. Segalanya bagai mimpi yang singgah sejenak dalam lenaku yang singkat. Bagaimana kami dengan sekelip mata, sepantas waktu boleh menjadi sangat mesra, akrab dan tidak boleh tidak bersama.

Seperti baju putih yang bersih, putih dan suci, mungkin sebegitulah permulaan fasa hidupku yang baru. Aku mahukan kedamaian di situ, yang pandangannya sejauh infiniti, tenang dan hakiki, dicipta untukku.


~ Tiap kali kita bersama, hidupku seakan tercapai tahap sempurna. Kehadiranmu melengkapi jiwaku. ~

i was in my dad's van.. on the way home from training when i heard this song over the radio.. i couldnt stop smiling.. cos it reminded me so much of him. haha.. crazy lah. *sigh*


Jawapanmu - Misha Omar

terleka bila berbicara denganmu
pastiku terbang tinggi ke awan biru
bermain dengan kata-kata
dari bibirmu itulah mimpiku selalu

kerap kali kau muncul di ruang minda
denganku kini kian sempurna
bilaku terjaga kau di depan mata
katakan saja apa yang di rasa

kamu selalu buatku tersenyum sendiri
ku tahu apa sebalik senyuman itulah yang ku mahu
jawapan dari kamu

aku selalu terkenangkan kamu
bila kamu jauh dari diriku kamu selalu yang ku rindu
jawapan rinduku kamu

nyata berbeza cara kau berbicara
ku terasa diriku istimewa
mahuku bertanya tapi ku tak berdaya
dah ku dekat denganmu kelu lidah membisu

masih lagi ku tercari-cari
dari mimpi ke mimpi hari ke hari
nyata mulanya dari kamu
katakan saja apa yang di rasa

kamu selalu buatku tersenyum sendiri
ku tahu apa sebalik senyuman itulah yang ku mahu
jawapan dari kamu

aku selalu terkenangkan kamu
bila kamu jauh dari diriku kamu selalu yang ku rindu
jawapan rinduku kamu

selalu aku mendoakan
agar kita disatukan
dan kita akan
ke akhirnya

kamu selalu buatku tersenyum sendiri
ku tahu apa sebalik senyuman itulah yang ku mahu
jawapan dari kamu

apa yang kau mahu
itu yang ku mahu
janganlah kau pergi
tinggalku sendiri
ku cari jawapan pasti

kamu..
kamu selalu buatku tersenyum sendiri


~ come home safely please. ~

Jika kehadiran dia umpama angin, mengapa derunya amat kuat?

Sudah hampir aku terlupa wahai hati, saat terakhir aku berperasaan begini. Tidak perlu aku jelaskan bagaimana berharapnya perasaanku pada saat ini.

Kalau termampu, aku akan berikan kesemuanya. Kalau ternyata, akan aku bahagiakan insan bernama dia. Jika tuhan mengizinkan, akan aku panjikan mahkota hatiku ke persada yang paling tinggi untuknya. Dan seandainya kita ditakdirkan untuk bersama, aku ingin dia bangga memilikiku seadanya.

Yang nyata, aku bersyukur kepada yang Maha Esa kerana menghadirkan dia ke sisiku. Aku berserah pada segala ketentuanNya. Kerana hanya tuhan sahaja yang tahu segala hasrat dan impian yang tersirat di dalam hati kecilku.



~ Kepada si dia, terima kasih untuk segalanya.. ~

p/s: S M Salim mini version. it's been long time since i laughed that hard. =D

i wanna go!!

Drops of Jupiter - Tanya Chua

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there’s time to change, hey, hey
Since the return of her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey, hey

Now that shes back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain Ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the milky way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone
Conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had.. and me

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the milky way

"Kembali ke Masjid" - NUANSA



Saat langkah tersendat di kehidupan
Letih kerana debu kealpaan
Wajah tak lagi pancarkan keimanan
Tertatih tiada tujuan
Lembar demi lembar hari kulewati
Namun ketenangannya tiada pasti
Mencari kini tempat yang mencukupi
'Tuk susun langkah yang lebih pasti
Kembali ke masjid teduhkan hatimu
Basuhlah jiwa yang lusuh kerana debu
Kembali ke masjid segarkan jiwamu
Sujudlah tawadhu' di hadapan Rabb-mu
Kembali ke masjid teduhkan hatimu
Basuhlah jiwa yang lusuh kerana debu
Kembali ke masjid murnikan cintamu
Tercurah hanya 'tuk keridhoan Rabb-mu


And keep up prayer in the two parts of the day and in the first hours of the night; surely good deeds take away evil deeds. This is a reminder to the mindful.
(Surah Hud :11; Ayat: 114)


**Pic taken @ Masjid Abdul Hamid Kampung Pasiran. My refuge after a stressful day at work.

Kau ingin aku yakin atas ketulusanmu menyangiku. Tapi bagaimana? Sedangkan kau hanya berdiri di situ saja. Tanpa melakukan apa-apa.

Aku melihat ketulusan dan keikhlasan hati seseorang bukan dari kata-kata yang dilafazkan namun dari segi kelakuannya. Mungkin kekuranganmu itu sebenarnya adalah sumber ketidakcukupan diriku untuk membuka pintu hati ini untukmu.

Maafkan aku.

Ger - A Chance With You

But it's true
Whatever I do, I mustn't give myself away

I just can't wait forever
I knew that you were mine, when I saw you
Though there's no way of me knowing you deeper
You don't even know I exist

I never want to make things harder
No, I never wanted anyone more
But what does it take to get you just to love me
You don't even know me at all

(Chorus)

But it's true
Whatever I do, I mustn't give myself away
Even though, I know I could lose a chance with you

All I know
That you understand the things that, I just couldn't say
And forever now, I feel you know me too

Been wanting to know you better
But my words don't even come out right
Now my head just keeps on spinning around me
Can you fill the void inside

*****************


~ Boyan + Jawa + Mama = BOJAMA. stop calling me that lah! ~

Him: "Layang2 bermain di langit yg biru, fikiranku terbayang wajahmu yg ayu. Hatiku sayu bila tidak dapat melihatmu. Aku ingin kau katakan u very rindu padaku. Hehe."

Her: "Ku terlihat layang di langit yg biru, tersenyum daku memikirkan dirimu. Dengarkanlah sayang bisikan ikhlas dari hatiku, ku amat merinduimu setiap waktu. =)"

Berbalas pantun kapee.. muahahah..
