Thor Ragnarok

No spoiler, no worries 😉

Makcik bagi 5 bintang sebab kelakar, rasa macam tengok Guardians of The Galaxy pulak. Tapi Natalie Portman tak ada, mungkin sebab tak ada scene dekat Bumi sangat kot.

Nak listkan apa yang best:

1. Ada Mark Ruffalo

2. Karakter Loki yang tak konsisten tu - kejap baik, kejap jahat.

3. Thor dah potong rambut haha

4. The film score & soundtrack

5. Kelakar! (walaupun dah mention kat atas)

The Wilted Roses

I followed @celinezabad on Instagram. She posted this picture and asked her followers to caption this.

*I'm posting it here for my record*

All things must come to an end,

even the most beautiful thing.

Like roses.

Like you and me.

Taste Bud Evolution

I think I'm slowly losing my Terengganu-ish taste bud nowadays. For example, I can no longer eat roti jala the Terengganu style (with kuah manis). Tak boleh telan dah. Mesti nak kena makan dengan kari ayam.

Lepas tu bila sesekali nak makan roasted chicken, I'd opt for Nando's instead of Kenny Rogers. Sebab Nando's ada sos yang Mild itu (walaupun masih tak tahan pedas, tapi nak jugak ada rasa pedas-pedas tu hahaha)

.

.

BUT, Kenny Rogers has this now (ke aku yang baru tahu):

Pedas, masam, manis

And they also have Honey BBQ and Smoked BBQ sauce

Konflik Diri

This is in my Draft box, something from 2012. I think it's unfinished, but I'm posting it anyway. It is still what I feel, up until now. The battle that I need to struggle everyday, especially at work. Because I need to be something that I am not. I do have trouble fitting in the ruthless and political world.

Here goes..

Pagi semalam, macam biasa, dengar motivasi pagi - semalam pasal sifat "Saya yang salah". And I keep on thinking about that all day.

To be honest, that's kinda who I am. Every time something that is not right happens, my initial spontaneous reaction would be - finding my own fault.
Only the way I see it - it's a disadvantage. I hate that about me - rasa macam senang dibuli, ditindas dan dipijak. I kinda look up to people who always manage to make everything that went wrong as everybody else's fault. It's easier to be that way, right?

Tapi bila ustaz kata "Sebenarnya dalam dunia ni, tak ada siapa yang boleh tindas kita atau hina kita. Hanya Allah yang boleh untuk hina kita"

My mind went ........... tak tahu nak pikir macam mana. Sebak pun ye. 

Maybe there's nothing wrong with me. Maybe I just need to love myself a little bit more.

After all, bukankah pandangan Allah itu lebih penting?

Declaration

Ini cerita masa pergi interview hari tu.

Pengalaman pertama terjumpa 'clause' ni dalam employment form. Right after police conviction and smoking declaration pulak tu.

I found it a little bit disturbing that it needs to be declared upon employment. But it didn't surprise me that much masa tengok keadaan kilang tu. In fact, I did want to just walk away while waiting for the interviewer. But on a second thought, nanti kang black-listed pulak dalam Jobstreet tu maka hadap jelah. 

Apam Balik Traffic Jam

Masa balik kampung for Raya Haji, apam balik ni jadi penyebab jalan jam di Kota Tinggi. Lebih kurang sejam jugak stuck dalam jam. Ingatkan ada accident ke apa, rupanya sebab orang berhenti tepi jalan nak beli dia.

Okay, nama sebenar dia - Apam Balik Jalan Mawai. To me, memang sedap. Bahagian tepung dia tu lembutnya lahai. Tak pernah lagi makan apam balik lembut dan fluffy macam ni *drooling while writing this 🤤🤤🤤

Ada banyak perisa (seperti tertera pada pembungkus) tapi kami beli yang original je, harganya RM2.50.

Semoga

Semoga kamu temui damai dalam kekalutan yang kamu ciptakan.

Semoga suatu hari kamu akan ‘dewasa’ sebelum terlambat.

Semoga kamu bahagia dengan segala kebencian di hati kamu.

Ya, semoga kamu bahagia selalu.


p/s: Untuk para pembenci.

Bimbo?

First of all, I'm curious - does the word 'bimbo' only associated to pretty face?

Second of all, I don't think anyone should ever address anyone else 'bimbo' as in intellectual capability. 

Especially not when you're the smart one.

Well, just saying.

Me,

Not-so-clever-girl.

Retak Satu Part II

I wrote about similar incident here

And my sister sent this video a couple days ago. I LOL-ed the moment I watched it.

Kita senasib, only the plate of hers broke for a valid reason (or must I say a very SOLID reason) that a mortar fell onto it. Haha, another LOL. Sorry, Buyan.

So, misi mencari pinggan mangkuk is ON.

Siakap Viral

Sebenarnya kedai makan ni yang viral, di Kampung Pasir Putih, Pasir Gudang:

Parking lot is provided

Pilihan lauk dah tak banyak masa kami sampai. Rata-rata yang datang sini memang makan the famous siakap goreng.

These were what we had (udang goreng dan lauk lain dah habis by that time).

Kami pergi time lunch on weekdays, walaupun orang ramai jugak tapi tak perlu menunggu. Servis sangat okay dan cepat. But I guess, I'm just not a fan of siakap goreng.

The scenery - macam tak menarik sangat.

The Kuih Heaven

Sejenis kegembiraan yang tak terkata bila dapat pergi sini. Atau tempat-tempat seumpama ni. Dapat berada di kalangan kuih-kuih manis dan lemak berkrim ni memang sangat heaven for such a sweet tooth like me.

Pictures were taken at Pasar Batu Enam, Kuala Nerus:

Yang ni kalau kat Terengganu, dipanggil 'nganang'. Sorry, tak tahu nama saintifik dia. Rasa dia lebih kurang kuih akok.

Jumpa kuih yang aku sangat masa kecik-kecik dulu:

Tepung Pasung. Dapat tahu nama ni lepas aku google "kuih Terengganu bentuk kon"

And this is the secret ingredient to some meal!

Popia Beratur

Kalau dekat bazar Ramdhan memang tak ada can lah nak merasa sebab queue panjang bebenor. Nak beratur tu memang kurang sikit kesabaran, maka mampu tengok jelah sambil tertanya-tanya sedap sangat ke sampai begitu sekali orang queue.

Last week pergi pasar malam dan terjumpa. Kebetulan masa tu tak ramai orang maka dapatlah jugak merasa Popia SS Ali ni at last.

So dah tahulah sebab apa orang sanggup beratur panjang-panjang.

The combo package

29th SEA GAMES 2017

Haha. Outdated gila! Mood baru sampai jadi baru dapat nak update pasal ni.

Sebaik je tahu Malaysia jadi host memang terus plan nak pergi tengok olahraga. Any event will do, asalkan dapat hari yang bersesuaian which was either Friday or Monday sebab senang nak mintak cuti sehari je kan.

Jadi sebulan sebelum Sukan SEA start, aku hari-hari pergi check event schedule. Bila dapat tau free admission ticket for athletics, lagilah berkobar-kobar nak prgi.

Hajat di hati nak jugak tengok 100m and 200m final, tapi, acara tu berlangsung in the middle of weekdays, jadi hasrat tu dilupakan jelah. Luckily for us, final match for 4X100 (men and women) and long jump (women) was held on Friday. Dan memang dari zaman sekolah dua acara tu memang wajib masuk. Maka, double yeay di situ hehe.

Seingat aku, last berada dalam stadium untuk acara olahraga was in my 2nd year USM. Dekat stadium USM main campus. Rindunya nak sprinting and jumping, tapi apakan daya, nilah game yang orang takkan main dah once you're 'fully-retired' from it, kan? Kalau main badminton ke futsal ke netball ke, tennis ke, bolehlah lagi main untuk suka-suka. And this is because, according to Micheal Johnson in his book - Gold Rush, athletics is not a recreational sports. People don't 'play' athletics for leisure.

Okay, enough reminiscing.

Sampai stadium ngam-ngam betul atlit-atlit wanita 4x100 tengah get ready kat track. Sempatlah ambik video yang super-amateur quality ni (tapi video 4x100 women tak lepas nak upload). But, not sure whether it's view-able or not. If not, I'll just remove it later.

The results:

Us (haha nak jugak tepek):

Busy bebenor YB ni, tengah wefie pun nak kena jawab phone

Kat tengah padang masa tu ada jugak acara Javelin final. Dan dekat sebelah hujung kanan sana acara Long Jump, so dari seat kami tak nampak. Nak menapak ke sana tu satu hal pulak, maka tengok di big screen jelah. Antara sebab aku suka sangat long jump dulu sebab event tu macam low profile sikit. Orang tak pay attention sangat kat dia, jadi pressure tu kurang. Unlike the 100m, perasaan antara "On your mark" and the "Bang" tu - Allah je yang tahu dia punya dub-dab tu. Tapi paling best masa sprint tulah - tak boleh nak describe perasaan tu haha.

Okaylah, terubat sudah rindu di hati. 

Blindsided

Of the other possible possibility. Because there are always two sides to every story.

Blindsided

Maybe

I broke your heart in the first place

and acted like I was the victim

Maybe

the cold shoulder that you gave

was your self-defense mechanism

And if that was the case;

I'm sorry

that you have to put yourself back together

while I was busy

playing the broken card

I'm sorry

that you have to heal the wound I caused

while I was busy

misunderstanding you.

Lay The Ghost of Mistakes To Rest

Knowing what I know now, I always wish to go back in time and do things right all over again.

But;
Had I not gone through all the mistakes that I made, I would not know what I know now.

So;
there's no use going back in time (as if it's possible).

All I have to do is,
forgive myself for not knowing better back then.
