Blue Roses (Rudyard Kipling)

Roses red and roses white,
Plucked I for my love’s delight.
She would none of all my posies -
Bade me gather her blue roses.

Half the world I wandered through,
Seeking where such flowers grew.
Half the world unto my quest,
Answered me with laugh and jest.

Home I came at wintertide,
But my silly love had died,
Seeking with her latest breath,
Roses from the arms of Death.

It may be beyond the grave,
She shall find what she would have.
Mine was but an idle quest -
Roses white and red are best.

Hala Tujuannya Selepas Ini

Sudah lama aku tidak menulis sebarang karangan atau nota dalam bahasa Malaysia; apatah lagi dalam blog. Baru-baru ini, saya menyedari blog ini sudah pun mencecah umur lebih daripada 1 tahun. Masih segar di dalam ingatan tentang siapa yang menyarankan saya untuk memulakan blog dengan “Wordpress”. Hmm… memang sudah lama aku tidak berbual atau mendengar khabar daripadanya. Kalau dia ada membaca blog saya kali ini, saya pasti dia tahu siapa dia yang saya maksudkan. Sudah lebih daripada 1 tahun juga aku mengenalinya. Saya rasa pengalaman latihan industri aku di Pulau Pinang, pulau mutiara Malaysia banyak berkisah tentang dirinya. Di sini saya ingin mengucapkan terima kasih kepadanya kerana menjadikan setiap hari saya di Pulau Pinang pada waktu itu sesuatu yang menceriakan.

Dia pernah memberitahu saya bahawa blog itu adalah medium untuk dia meluahkan perasaannya dan berkongsi dengan pembaca-pembacanya terutama sekali kawan-kawan rapatnya. Ada kalanya dia akan memadamkan sesetengah karangannya selepas seketika kerana dia merasakan itu adalah sesuatu yang telah berlalu dan tidak perlu diingati dalam memorinya. Mungkin saya kurang bersetuju dengan pendapatnya tetapi saya tetap menerimanya sebagai kawan. Saya berharap pada suatu hari nanti hubungan kami boleh kembali seperti beberapa bulan semula.

Baru-baru ini, kawan aku mengatakan blog aku istimewa kerana ayat-ayat di dalamnya disusun dengan indah dengan penggunaan perkataan yang ringkas tetapi mudah difahami. Pada masa itu, saya betul-betul ingin memberitahu dia bahawa aku sebenarnya belajar daripadanya.

Aku masih tidak pasti samada mahu meneruskan blog aku seperti yang ada sekarang atau memulakan blog baru seperti satu blog teknikal yang saya telah rancang sebelum ini. Saya mahu memasukkan maklumat-maklumat teknikal daripada pengalaman saya di dalam kerja supaya orang lain boleh mendapat manfaat daripadanya juga.

Akhir sekali saya mengucapkan terima kasih kepada semua penbaca blog saya dan berharap saya juga boleh terus membaca blog anda juga.

Bread of Past

Last night, my bro and I decided to buy some breads for today’s breakfast. I realise that there are several new bakery shops opened in recent years whether in the shopping malls or in the shoplots itselves. Yet we went to our childhood favourite bakery shop. It is located far away from our home yet we still think that it is one of the best choice in the town.

As we was driving to the bakery, I remembered how we used to have those breads and cakes for our breakfast during school times and special occasions such as birthday and anniversary celebrations. The bakery isn’t a household name but yet it grow up together with the town itself. I hope it will continue to exist for many years to come even more and more competitors coming into the town.

While choosing the breads and cakes to be brought, I was thinking about my gluttonous brother who loves to eat a lot. Our mom always had to brought extra food for him as he will eat a lot and get hungry faster than the rest of us. Yet he doesn’t look fat and in fast he was slightly under weight. Perhaps his sporting activities helped him to “burn” all those foods. HAHA…

PS: The bread might look ordinary but yet this is what we enjoyed for years…

Happy Birthday, Sister

美美, 生日快乐。

Happy birthday to you, sister. Hope you will have a blissful year ahead. This year no present for you as last year when our late brother brought you a PSP. We plan to take you for a dinner later tonight. You might not be reading these but I hope in the future, I can show it to you.

May you continue to grow mentally, emotionally, spiritually and knowledgeably.

Thanks for the money you dished out for my operation a few month ago.

End to August (2009)

It’s 31st August again. It have been a relaxing 1 and half month for me as I was resting at home after my operation on mid July. Nevertheless, it was a good time for me I think. At least I get to be with my family more this time around.

Last year, I wrote a blog almost similar to this one. What a nice time I had in Penang for my internship. Get to know many new friends and what I like most is getting to know how life in Penang can be.

My bro said that he wanted to work at Auto City one day after he finished his study when we go to Penang that time on July 2008. He told me that it was his dream to get a hand on those luxury cars as Auto City host to many of those workshops. Haha… I also hope he can help me with my car in the future last time.

Today will be our country, Malaysia’s 52nd anniversary of Independence Day. Wish we can still have this kind of celebrations for years to come. May the country continue to be blessed in peace. I hope one day every people here no matter what religion they are can have a mutual respect to each other. I still think that you can practise any religion in the world as long as it teach us to be morally good. I might not be very pious with my own religion but I hope I can get to know more about it from now on.

PS: Anyway it was a nice gathering for us yesterday night. If got chance in the future, I’m sure we will gather once again and talk more about “crabs” in the future. Cheers! (no alcohol please… HAHA…)

Forget: Past, Future, Present

Saw this quote from a picture in my friend’s fb. Just to share with you guys and girls.

Forget the past because you can’t correct it; Forget the future because you can’t predict it; Don’t forget the present because it will be beautiful to be remembered if it is cherished.

PS: Anyway, the picture looks so adorable with a “fortune teller” cow telling another cow. HEHE…

Comfort From Huggery

Never I thought before about its effects in making people more comfortable and relaxing. It was a month ago when I was in the ICU and I was feeling the pain after the operation that time. A female medical assistant staff told me a useful tip about how to make myself feel less pain and in the same time feel more comfortable when bed-riden for a long time. She took a small pillow for me and and ask me to hug the pillow. That time, I was thinking “The surgery was done on my chest yet you ask me to put something in front of it and pressurize it?! What on Earth was it suppose to ease my pain?”.

She told me to imagine that I was hugging my family members or loved one in order to make it more real. Ya, I was feeling less painful and more comfortable after that. Finally I know what she intended to deliver to me. When we hugged someone, we will feel more comfort and warm thus it will divert our mind which was thinking about the pain to another things in front of us.

I continued to use the same tactic when I was in pain where I am recuperating in my home currently. I just hope I can get well as soon as possible and back to action again.

Thanks again to all my family members and friends.

Hmm… 2009… This year supposed to be the year where we all going to have our convocation either for diploma or degree. Hey man, guess what, “you” supposed to be the 1st person in the family that will be going to convocation this year on the month of May. I’m sure “you” will have the bragging right in the family if “you” were still here back then.

Today we having a photographing section for our brother who will be attending his convocation this Sunday. From my observation, it seems to be everyone are not fully happy with with it as we were thinking of “you” that time. This wasn’t supposed to be the first time we going to have a family member who will be attending convocation. When the photographer ask us to smile, it seems to be our sister can’t smile as usual. I guess everyone of us were just showing our teeth in front of the camera without enjoying the smile of the photographing session.

When I was viewing some of “your” friends who were posting their pictures of convocation last May, I was feeling sorrow about what happened to “you” earlier this year. I’m sure “you” can be there as well, up there taking scroll of graduation to show what have “you” done for the past 2 years. Wish we could take many pictures of “your” convocation that time.

Anyway, hope that we can have a good time this Sunday for our brother’s convocation. I’m hope that we can have a better smile in front of the camera instead of just showing teeth to the cameraman. Prayed that “you” will be smiling up there as well while “watching” us on that day. Bless our day, budak…

It’s hurt by regretting for not caring enough, it’s hurt by understanding you not enough, it’s hurt most when unable to see you

Can’t see any sadness on your face

那是种多么 寂寞的倔强

That’s such a lonely stubbornness

你拆了城墙 让我去流浪
ni chai le cheng qiang, rang wo qu liu lang
You had tear down the wall, and let me wander aimlessly

在原地等我 把自己捆绑
zai yuan di deng wo, ba zi ji kun bang
so I truss up myself in a place

你没说 你也会软弱 需要依赖我
ni mei shuo, ni ye hui ran ruo, xu yao yi lai wo
You doesn’t say that you might become weak too as you need my support

我就装不晓得 自由移动 自我地过
wo jiu zhuang bu xiao de, zi you yi dong zi wo de guo
So I pretended that I doesn’t know, moving freely and live my own life

我发誓不再说谎了 多爱你就会抱你多紧的
wo fa shi bu zai shuo huang le, duo ai ni jiu hui bao ni duo jin de
I promise I won’t lie any more, how tight I hold you means how much I love you

wo de wei xiao dou jia le, ling hun xiang piao fu zhe, ni zai jiu hao le
My smile are fake, my soul seems to be just floating, it’ll be nice if you’re here

我发誓不让你等候 陪你做想做的无论什么
wo fa shi bu rang ni deng hou, pei ni xiang zuo de wu lun shen me
I promise I won’t let you wait, I’ll be with you for whatever you want to do

我越来越像贝壳 怕心被人触碰 你回来那就好了
wo yue lai yue xiang bei ke, pa xin bei ren chu peng ,ni hui lai na jiu hao le
I’m more and more like a shell, afraid of being touched by others, it’ll be nice if you’re back

能重来那就好了
neng chong lai na jiu hao le
it’ll be nice if everything can just start over
