FB memutus dan menyambung silaturahim , kita pilih yang mana kita mahu

Salam perkenalan, ini Adik Wan Zambry

Saya kenalkan pada kengkawan, ini adik Zambry, anak jiran bawah umah semasa kami tinggal di flat Kenanga KTM, Lama betul tak berjumpa Adik Zam atau nama sebenarnya , Wan Zambry...

Pernah terserempak tanpa sempat berbual pada 1996/7 di LRT Bangsar semasa pintu LRT ditutup dan sekali lagi secara ringkas pada hari raya 2009 tanpa sempat berbual...

Kalau nak dikira kirakan, keluarga adik Zam dan kami agak rapat dahulunya dan boleh dikira sebagai keluarga.

Adik Zam pernah mengaji dengan arwah Abah dan juga mak ngah Timah (adik arwah mak) dan kemudiannya ayah adik Zam, pakcik Wan Samsudin pula telah menemukan jodoh mak ngah Timah dengan sepupunya , ayah saudara saya sekarang , Pak Rahim...

Saya sendiri semasa dizaman persekolahan pernah digossipkan dengan salah seorang adik beradik Adik Zam (tak perlulah cerita lebih lebih hehehe) gossip zaman sekolah ni rekaan semata mata! Bukan betul pun... Kami yang digossipkan ni makin la malunya bila bersua. Kesian kat dia...

Diawal mula mula saya mencari calon isteri dulu pun saya telah cuba di"keneng-keneng"kan oleh mak ngah Timah dengan salah seorang ahli keluarga adik Zambry juga... Tapi nak buat camana... Jodoh tuhan telah tentukan untuk saya dan CikWifey saya... Alhamdulillah... jadinya... Bak kata teman sebaya Wan Zambry dan juga classmate adik saya Amin... Takyah cerita, "Biarlah Rahsia!" Hehehe

Adik Zam dari fizikal memang la dah besar panjang berbanding budak kecil yang berlari bawah rumah sambil main Rounders dulu... Nakal tak juga, nakal lagi saya ! Tapi muka tetap sama dan lesung pipit tetap ada kekal kedalamannya. Kalau jumpa tepi jalan insyaAllah boleh kenal.

Setelah baru berhubung diFB , minggu lepas baru kami berkesempatan bertemu... Banyak cerita lama kami singkap, mengenai adik beradik, mengenai abah, mengenai zaman kecil...

Alhamdulillah 3 sudah cahaya matanya (kalau x silap) dan masih ramah seperti dulu. Punyai pekerjaan mulia menjaga pesakit dan terutamanya orang orang tua yang tidak sihat...

FB juga telah sambungkan tali persaudaraan kami setelah sekian lama tak berhubung ... Ini pun secara tak sengaja ... Melalui friend list sahabat Mutual kami...

So kalau ada yang sekarang boleh bergaduh , putus hubungan dek kerana FB, ada juga yang memanfaatkan social media untuk eratkan silaturahim .

Saban hari saya terbaca status status yang berbaur pergaduhan, ada juga yg hebat bergaduh walaupun tidak pernah bersua! cuma hanya di alam cyber pun boleh gaduh!

apa kata kita semua, kala bila ada masa terluang, cuba berjumpa dengan rakan FB kita, eratkan persahabatan dan bercerita tentang persahabatab seperti yang saya lakukan ini, mungkin banyak yang baik boleh kita kongsikan bersama insyaAllah...

I miss Abah dan Mak so much tonight…

Before i begin , Alfatihah

Every time when people ask me who I resemble most, I have always said I look more like my mum, her nose, her face moles are located almost identical with mine but hers are on the right side and mine was on the left side.

For the longest time I always say that I look like my mom and that my brother Yusmin (Amin) looks more like Abah … True to a certain degree… The way Amin stands and walk is almost abah’s duplicate! And the fact that Amin love ‘Kerja tukang’ and repairing motorbikes are exactly my dad’s hobby.

I am more of the artistic type! I love songs and singing and URTV and poems and novels which are exactly like mother’s hobby…

Plus the fact that I feared my dad more as he was a very strict dad. Rotan, belt and rubber hose are like gloves to Abah… I always turn to mak for anything…

When I decided to leave Kuala Lipis for Kuala lumpur after SPM in 1992, Abah was my main deciding factor in doing so… I always thought that I was never his favorite… Amin was… So I was never that close to Abah… He was such a HARD person…

But when Mak fell sick of renal complications early 1997 and eventually passed away in 1998, during one of the tahlil for my mum, I saw abah as this lonely, frail and SOFT man…

When he decided to marry again, with the help of my new UMI, I started to understand Abah… When he also started to show illness and renal related complications, I slowly make myself closer to Abah… When he lost his eyesight in 2002, I became closer and closer to him. The only problem was that I was living in Penang and back then, traveling back home was a challenge for me…

When Abah passed away, only then I realized how much I missed him and how much I regretted not wanting to understand him more before …

When I got hold of some of Abah’s photo to scan only the. I got comments that I resemble Abah more that mak… Just last month I was approached on Facebook by abah’s long lost friend asking me if I am Che Yusoff Muda’s son simply because he said my eyes reminded him of abah… When my wife saw Abah and mak’s vintage wedding photos she commented I look so much like Abah, only then I slowly dug out abah’s old photos… Not yet accepting it fully but slowly recognizing it…

Tonight as my wife who is away in JB asked how was I doing, I send her this photo of myself as I usually do to cheer her up….

When I saw this photo of mine, I suddenly cried because I saw my father in me … The eye, the lips, the beard, the stare, the hair and the messy unbutton white polo shirt and messy collar… I saw Abah

Btw, that’s me at the age of 15 smiling widely behind my Abah taken during hari raya. A rare photo, to see me that cheerful when Abah is around as I am always fearful of him…

Allahhuakbar… I miss Abah and mak so much tonight…

As tears falling down, I decided to write this and I started it with Bismillah and Al-Fatihah and now as I almost reaching the end I this note, I hope you, my friends who is reading this, please give Al-Fatihah to my Abah and Mak and the ones we love …

Thank You

Abah dan Mak, along rindu sangat…
Al-Fatihah…
Assalamuaikum …

Adik ipar saya baru je beranak dapat anak lelaki so the whole family flew down to JB nak sambut baby baru but i tak dapat ikut… so i kiranya wifeless la for the weekend… ya ya ya most of you probably think i'll be shouting YEA MERDEKA but honestly no since i still have my second wife tagging along… my work

btw, berkenaan gambar ni… setibanya CikWifey di JB, first whatsapp msg from her was …"Br Sampai JB day winduuuuu kat abg huhuhu" so my reply to her was this series of photos with captions of "muka blur", "muka rindu", "muka kusut" and etc… can you guess which is which and maybe u can put your own …

semoga weekend anda lebih sempurna ...

Kalau anda stress tahap gaban

1. Print this kit/cetak kalau tak faham

2. Place firmly on a very hard surface , a sharp spiky surface will provide better result (sendiri buat faham la)

3. Knock your kepala sekuat boleh, as hard as possible !

4. Ulang repeat step 3 jika masih sedarkan diri.

5. Do not repeat step 3 if u sudah pengsan

6. If all steps failed, bawa Stress Reduction Kit ini menaiki keretapi ERL menuju KLIA, turun di main terminal building, naik teksi limosine menuju ke LCCT, tunggu 2 jam untuk bas tambang murah ke KL sentral, naiki PUTRA turun di KELANA JAYA kemudian dengan tanpa perasaan segan silu naik bas IKANO percuma ke eCURVE dan berjalan kaki melintas ke arah ONE UTAMA sebelum sekali lagi tanpa segan silu menaiki bas percuma ke arah stesen KELANA JAYA untuk menaiki putra LRT menuju KLCC sebelum naik ke tingkat teratas dan terjun bersama STRESS REDUCTION KIT ini…

Selamat la dah takkan stress lagi selepas itu

What is stress????

Stress typically describes a negative concept that can have an impact on one’s mental and physical well-being, but it is unclear what exactly defines stress and whether or not stress is a cause, an effect, or the process connecting the two. With organisms as complex as humans, stress can take on entirely concrete or abstract meanings with highly subjective qualities, satisfying definitions of both cause and effect in ways that can be both tangible and intangible.

I AM SOOOOO STRESSS!!!!!

2 biul days and a note from CikWifey

The last 2 days has been a crazy busy day for me and the @enfiniti_vm team as we did our Team Building and Strategic planning for 2013. Plotting our next step...

With the new CEO and gaining new team members and temporarily losing one very pregger colleague, things are looking like as if a thunderstorm is heading towards us and it is a good one!

I have taken the leadership role a year earlier with a person under my team but today was actually the first time ever I ever did a proper department presentation to our board of directors. Not that I haven't done it in front of TJ and en IB before, I've done it many many times , the only thing is this time around , it is a proper business plan presentation where what ever I charted for my department for next year, we the creative team and especially us the department heads, holds accountability for air actions, plans and profits...

My department is a creative department, we support the company and its division across the board... How can I make sure that I will still bring in the the money when all my department's idea will then be executed by other division who then claims the ringgit KPI? That is exactly what I need to drive this department towards, a money making division .

An ultra stressful process preparing the plans, especially coming from someone like me who is all about creatives and hates to "Kira" duit...

But I think I pulled through. Tiring process it was but I managed to somewhat project that as far as the facts on paper makes its look ultra crazy... We know we can do this ! Woohoo! I was happy that even though I have always said to myself I would never be a salesman again doing 9-5 job because it can be so boring, I now get to do it and enjoy at the same time!

But even with everything , all the happiness in the world will not be complete without LOVE...

As much as I am very dedicated to my job, notes like this one (left by my wife on our fridge) makes me want to think again ... What are my priorities...

Time to think...

Oh btw did i tell u guys that today was a busy day for EVM? Because during lunch, we lost a Toshiba lappy, MacBook Pro, some cash amongst other things...

I am mengantuk...

(This was type late last night around 3 am and I just realized that I didn't press the send button hence why it is only posted now LOL I am not editing a single word so if anything up there doesn't make any sense forgive me as I was so sleepy when I wrote it)

About my #Bajet2013 quote alongside @TiaraJacquelina @suedanza @ngaiyuen by @syafique of @501awani

Aduyai, for the upcoming #BAJET2013 they ask for my wish list and I didn't realize Awani's journalist Syafique Shuib actually putting my face and quote in the same page as Datuk Faridah, Ngai Yuen, Suhaili and my boss! @TiaraJacquelina !

this is such an honor and to have my quote be the last line summore hehehe! tq Awani and Tq syafique.

Here is the original text that I sent to Syafique (check the malay version too hehehe not google translate ok)

Wishing that the arts and entertainment industry will be look upon with higher regards earlier in the education system as arts and entertainment can enhance our daily skills in dealing with daily life. Making our nation more animated and more extrovert rather than being an introvert. Especially useful in public speaking, dealing with clients and colleagues .

Saya mengharapkan bidang seni akan dipandang lebih tinggi dan serius lebih awal di dalam sistem pendidikan kerana ianya boleh meningkatkan kemahiran harian kita dalam berurusan dengan kehidupan harian. Membuat kita lebih menarik perhatian dan lebih peramah bukannya menjadi seorang pendiam. Terutama berguna dalam berhadapan dengan orang ramai, berurusan dengan pelanggan dan rakan sekerja khususnya. Dalam erti kata lain, bidang seni boleh menjadikannya kita lebih kreatif dalam apa jua bidang.

And I do hope Arts and Entertainment will be look upon as "pemangkin" for a better nation and a better future insyaAllah and not just as "Hiburan semata-mata" because the use of arts is endless... If only you can imagine it... So there's no harm to "berangan"...

Bila si #LubangKeldai parkir kereta

Pernahkah anda lalui perkara ini... anda mengejar waktu, anda ada kecemasan, anda terdesak, anda tak tahan nak berak...

Dan satu satunya laluan terdekat kereta anda disekat oleh si LubangKeldai yang selalu ponteng kelas pendidikan moral/sivik semasa di sekolah rendah dahulu.

This is exactly what happened to me today, how could these 2 Lubang Keldai parked at the exit ramp???
Dah la the whole carpark is full!!! I am stuck here.

Apakah yang akan anda lakukan???

Biul!

Come PLAY with us !

Today we will PLAY! Are you ready to PLAY with us?

More info soon!

My BIUL day and how my wife transformed it into a BLISS.

Today is definitely a BIUL day for me… I started late because the old back ache came back to haunt me in the morning… I almost didn’t manage to get out of bed.

Walk into the office straight into discussion and project brief to colleagues and later straight into pre-launch preparation meeting for our latest product PLAY! ( www.facebook.com/PLAYCorporateTraining ) which was taxing to my brain!

Later at 2pm, another meeting with the whole office to update on our projects and was surprised with few emails and new datelines while multitasking listening to the meeting, throwing suggestions and at the same time negotiating proposal via FB inbox with a friend who lives in LA and being bombarded with whatsapp messages by my very pregnant colleague Amee (who is currently working from home) telling me problems caused by people with huge capital A attitude demanding stuffs that is out of our hand …

I became annoyed the whole day,

i forgot few stuffs,

i became angry and agitated,

I was randomly making weird loud sounds just to release tensions ,

I didn’t smile,

I forgot to call a dear friend of mine (who was offering some medical advise beneficial to me at no cost) that I promised to call last night but i didn’t… The problem is, I have always have a slight Hand eczema problem and normally it is very small and manageable but lately due to a high stress level (as my previous dermatologist told me) the hand eczema is becoming more obvious and became inflame… So he was suppose to advise me of what ointment to get from the pharmacy and I forgot to call him… But I am glad I managed to find time to call (Sorry and thanks Da)

I also forgot to call another dear friend who I usually chat and he sent me few Assalamuaikums on whatsapp , twitter and iMessage as a hint for me to call him back and I forgot to reply … (Sorry Pak Mulu)

i sounded slightly rude on the phone to a friend who i have not spoken too since Raya and all he wanted to do was to cheer me up after reading my FB status about a certain lubang keldai posting (sorry abear)

ONLY after i took my Wuduq for a very late zohor prayer I suddenly realized I haven’t spoken to my wife..

You see… Due to a late meeting I had yesterday , she decided to go back to her old place near KLIA because I won’t be able to pick her up from her bus shuttle drop off point in Subang in time ..

I felt bad…

I was so busy I forgot to call her .

As today we both need to work late, me and my piling-up works , her and her server down problems, only at 1045pm we manage to see each other and we had a very late dinner …

When we saw each other, She just smiled and I joked with her as usual. she told me funny stories from work and funny stories from our little niece who is trying to speak English … “We go to school same-same” is what Adik said referring to going to school together (same same : sama sama , geddit?) …

We were laughing we were smiling…

We didn’t talk about our work problems because all we have now is each other and why would we want spoiled the happy thoughts…

I know she is tired and stressed out with work and she probably know I am too… Thank god I have her to make me forget my BIUL day… And it was BLISS seeing u smile…

I love you sayang…
