summary of [3 month] life for me
yeah i know
i've not able to update this blog in several month already
from the logs, it shows that the last time i did upload a post here is on may 2009
now its september and hell yeah its a long long time between those months
sorry guys, mostly its about my jobs (blame it)
nowaday the office seem needing more of my times and attentions
what to say, the guy need to keep this up to earned a payday in the end of the month :P
so, what did happen in those 3 months?
hmm.. nothin much i would say
life happen naturally and there some hickup here and there
but mostly its running just fine
in june we did went to kl to attend my wife cousin's wedding ceremony
it was held at summit hotel in usj
we spent a night at my wife's uncle house and managed to 'singgah' cameron highland and klcc along the way :P
its the historic journey to me as we drove back from kl to penang in 12 hour time
yes, u read it right.. 12 hour from kl to penang!
LOL..
in july, we stole a night in 1 weekend and drove ourself to pangkor.. again.
i know its a repeated destination.. but both of us need a break and i am not planning to go to somewhere that too far and tired me out at the end of it
this time we managed to get us a room in coray bay resort pangkor island
the hotel is ok in term of location and facilities
we didnt go sightseeing much, as we've already cover all the island hotspot before this and this time we only pampered ourself with quality time together and of course, a feasty food galore everytime we can.. haha!
its a quick hideout, but its really enjoyable
hope we will find our way to pangkor again in the future :)
august is a no hightlighted month.. i dont recalled any special event happen in august
oh yeah, we start fasting in august and till now we're half way thru a month fasting in ramadhan
the shawal will be in the end of september and i'll be posting somethin in the end of this month
hopefully we'll all made it to this year shawal without any problem, insya-Allah
so there it is
my quick summary for those 3 months i've missed my post in here
hopefully i got a big news to write in the month to come
keep my finger cross :)

Taylor Swift - Love Story
Taylor Swift described "Love Story" as..
"a love that you've got to hide because for whatever reason it wouldn't go over well. I spun it in the direction of Romeo and Juliet; our parents are fighting. I relate to it more as a love that you cannot really elaborate on — a love that maybe society wouldn't accept [or] maybe your friends wouldn't accept."
As of the week ending February 8, 2009, "Love Story" has been downloaded more than 3 million times, making it the most downloaded country song in history - wikipedia.org
Love Story
Songwriters: Swift, Taylor Alison
We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights
See the party, the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don't go, and I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go and I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes
Romeo save me, they try to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story baby just say yes
Oh oh
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you is fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
And said, marry me Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say yes
Oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
My Sis Wedding [Part 1]
kinda tired..
just finished processing my sis akad nikah ceremony pictures in my cam.. as usual, i was appointed un-official photographer for the event.. its kinda weird when u see the brother's of the bride taking pictures and having looking around for best angle of the ceremony.. anyway, its already done.. i've already sent 1 sets of the best pics to my sis so that she can use it for her wedding banner.. gosh, nowadays the caterer also come out with package including providing banner/streamer for the bride and groom.. i was talking to my wife, back then (just in the last 2 years back) there was no service like this provided to us.. heck if u see any wedding ceremony with streamer and banner, it must be a dato's son or daughter wedding.. but now, i cant really count how many wedding banner i saw this weekend on the road back to my family house..
well.. good for her, i did my best and hope that the coming wedding ceremony on next 2 week would be smooth and perfect..
Escape To [Kelantan]
its may again..its also my birthmonth..i dunno why,but usually for me and my wife, this particular month would be an enjoyable month for us.. so,what weve been doing nowadays?
the latest event i succesfully done is our vacation/trip to kota bharu,kelantan.. yes,weve been to kelantan this month.. this trip is planned by my wife and its on worker day last week.. the different things in this trip is that we invited my inlaws to come together with us.. at 1st it was planned for us to go with 1 car.. but later my wife's bro insist that he and his family want to join the trip.. the last minute request kinda haywired all the plan we already had.. we have to look for additional room for them,and at just 1 day before the date,it seem imposible.. its a public holiday and all the hotels in kota bharu already fully booked.. thankfully,my wife managed to get us another room and my bro inlaw had to settled for a small single bed room.. we start out with having bfast in sbrg jaya and move toward kelantan via bworth - kulim xpresway.. from there we passed baling,grik,banding,titiwangsa,jeli,tanahmerah,pasir mas and finally kota bharu..
this is my 1st time visiting kota bharu all by myself, as i recall i did went there with my dad and mom when i was small.. and also my sis was borned in kota bharu, of course at that time i wasnt been created/borned yet.. so, back to kota bharu, at 1st impression, it is a small town with lots of small road and misleading signboard.. damn i need 2 day to familiarize the road to our hotel.. and after i can remember it, its already time to go back home.. heh.. where we did go? on the 1st day we went to the kompleks buluh kubu next to the pasar siti khadijah.. then later in evening we had our trip to the pantai cahaya bulan and all the batik shop en route to the beach.. nightime for the 1st day is dinner at pcb again (where i wanted to try those sup belut only to be warned by my wife not to) late at night we went back to the town and we went to the nightmarket.. there, and then we go back and had our snoring sleep.. hehe.. the 2nd day started with our bfast in house, then we went to the pasar siti khadijah (i bought turtle eggs! haha!) had our buying fest (my wife and her family actually) and walk to the cultural village about 200 meters from the pasar.. from there, my inlaws was already tired and they end up going back to the hotel early.. we (me and my wife) decided that our lust of buying and sightseeing still not being satisfied, so we went back to the buluh kubu complex to look for batik shirt.. and just to be warned, the prices of batik shirt in buluh kubu complex is 15-30% higher than in pasar siti khadijah.. so, we end up going to the pasar (again!) and looking for a better price.. finally, i end up buying 2 pair of batik shirts (priced at RM100 per piece) and my wife got a pair of batik silk for baju kurung.. from there, we rush back to the hotel (as it already 12.30pm) and managed to check out at 1.00pm..
then from kota bharu we travel to rantau panjang to check out the scene and stuffs there.. me, my wife and my bro inlaw never went to the place so there was no one to guide us there.. at the place, we accidently went thru the wrong route and asked to go back as it was gate to golok and straight to thailand.. lol.. i guess someone need to be blame on this.. hehe.. we finally get to the place but as it was saturday and a day after public holiday, the place is in hectic condition.. cars parked nearly everywhere and i dont think we can manage to get a decent parking lots for both me and my bro inlaw car together.. so we decided to just turn back and start our journey back to penang.. we stop by near the town and had our late lunch there.. (my bro inlaw get his pulut durian and i had a pulut ayam goreng - what a funny food combination.. hehe)
from there, it was already nearly 4.00pm and we still in kelantan.. we drove our cars back (this time i take the lead as i drove faster than my bro inlaw) to jeli, started climbing gerik near 7.00pm and reach baling nearly 9.30pm.. while on the road, i had a green viva "cucuking" my 660 viva.. i did gave him a chance to pass me, but he just like to play-play on the road (most likely to showoff his girlfriend sitted next to him).. its a young malay guy.. even my bro inlaw whos been following that car horned him not to be fooling around, but it seem it just not working.. at last, he did passed my car and i just said to myself, this guy gonna get something later.. on top of the titiwangsa, it was a dark night with thick fog.. it has been raining all day up there and the fog make it worst for the car travelling thru the titiwangsa.. all i can see only about 5 meters infront of the car and what i can do is just follow the road line.. then, just after tasik banding, we met again with that green viva.. in wrecked condition!!.. what happen is the driver lost his control and "hantam" the road divider just after a tight corner.. i drove slowly near the scene as ambulance and police are already there.. the girl was stretched into the ambulance and i cant see where the driver was.. there, a "balasan" straight given to ppl that dont have respect to others using the road..
we arrived in seberang jaya thru butterworth-kulim expressway at about 10.30pm and had our dinner at a nasi kandar restaurant.. from there i drove back to my house and my bro inlaw drove straight to alor star..
it was a enjoyable and wonderfull experience/journey to kelantan.. as i always said to my wife.. its not the place we want to go that give us the joy but the journey along the road to the place will make us remember and thinking of it later on..
till then, chiao!
