Hello and Hye ena

So, weekend is here huh? Yaaawwnn.......ok.....doesnt matter, cos its a working weekend for me. Sleepy slow weekend. Its my cycle, to work in alternate weekends. Im used to this. Great thing is, there is no Monday blues for me next week....only Monday wohooss!...hahaha. And some more, i will only work on Weds and Thurs. How cool is that?

When we're in working environment, we always communicate in English, right? The emails in English, communicating between colleagues mostly in English, communicating with bosses would be in English. In fact, this all starts in Uni time. Communicating with lecturers was done mostly in English. Answering exam would be in English. Essays, assignments...all in English. The texbooks all in English. I tried reading a malay book on programming, and hell no i dont understand. I also found malay Physics book when i studied Advance Physics in Uni.....nope, its really strange that i cant understand my own language. Its all because they use malay terms....which really sounds unfamiliar.

Programming = Pengaturcaraan.......get it?

So...is it weird that i feel i cant communicate and convey my ideas in plain Bahasa Melayu well? The other day, i was at office, lepak by the balcony. Me and my friends we were talking about Birkinstock shoes and I said the shoes are comfortable. And suddenly Sukh ask:

'Genggaman dia ok tak?'

And i look at him weird.

'Genggaman?'

'The grip of the shoes. Tapak dia ok ke?.....what do u call 'grip' in malay? Genggaman right?'

'Oo0o0o....grip of the shoes! yeah man, the grip is fine.'

Like example of conversation above, what would u call 'grip' in malay? It is 'genggaman' right? It is suppose to be a usual word right? But why does genggaman sounds funky there? Is there any other unfunky word to describe the grip of a tapak kasut? Or do u think is sounds fine?

Isnt it funny when we find the word in Malay is too bombastic. Padahal memang selalu cakap BM (tapi bahasa pasar). Like Sukh said, 'after several years using English, speaking simple malay also can sound bombastic.' I think it happens like this cos BM can be so pasar. English is a bit more steady. It does not have to much sleaziness in the language.

What Sukh said made me laugh, cos its absolutely true. We have been using English as our (almost) primary language for some years already, which I, sometimes cant find a proper word in Malay. I sometimes feel English language has more accurate word than Malay. Im not doing a Sharifah Amani stunt here (remember Sharifah Amani once said, speaking in malay makes her sound stupid...and then everybody slammed her the very next morning in the papers? even the menteri kesenian makes his remarks on what she said). No, im not pulling 'a Sharifah Amani' here.

There is a lot of beauty in BM. But i just think BM can be too pasar, that when u tried using a proper word in Malay, it sounds bombastic. Of course I can still speak malay. I can speak proper malay but i dunno why, i felt like it sounds a bit......funky. Because like i say, sometimes malay words dont come out right. Just like the word 'genggaman' up there.

Take care all........xOxO

Me, a fiancee

Hye yena!

Currenly im down with fever. Malam ni keje plak tu kan. MC dah amik semalam, tapi lom sembuh2 lagik! Its viral fever cos its getting at my body rreeeeaaally slowly. I had it before and i know how bad it is. I had fever sometimes but not this bad, and when its bad, i know its viral. Lambat sembuh and also very la the hotness...huhuuh. Last time i got viral fever, was last year. Horrible and every nite my temperature would be soaring like an eagle in the sky. 39-40 C and my body would be very weak.

Nasib baik tak rosak otak dan jadi retard kan....eh wait, now that got me thinking...hhm mm =p.

Viral fever, got a class on its own. It is on its own....no flu, no coughing included. Its in its own package - viral fever. Try not to get caught of viral fever, ok.

Anyway.....

Last 30/05/09, me and Din has decided to tie a 'loose knot'.....we were engaged. Well, me and Din has a very long history. I've known him 7 years ago. And during that 7 years, there is good time and there is turbulent time (horrible lowest time in my life). And at certain time, i think i can never ever love him back. Tapi ini la kite kata takdir tuhan. Dia bukak hati kite, and we accept it and it happened to be the greatest thing.

Thank you everybody who manage to came. Farrah, Khom, Marini, Piza, Ros, Suraya, Farah, Ila and Manchett dan hubby mereka. Oh dan Ariz Zafir yang masih dlm perut Ila time tu...haha. Esok lusa tu terus Ila terberanak...hehe.

Awaiting my other friends' turn.... =)

Take care.....x0x0

Howly Shayt!

Hyena! I love life....dont you just love life? I love life.... =)

Anyway, a few days ago i've done something totally unbelievable...i cant believe it myself....hahaha. You know girls always remember (so-called)important dates right? Like relationship anniversary, their birthdays, mothers day, fathers day, sisters day, brothers day, their grandparents anniversary, their grandparents birthdays, their pets birthdays....and they expect guys to remember it too and do something special on that day. It is troublesome isnt it?

I, on the other hand.....is a bit different. I forgot the day me and my DinDang promised to be commited to each other. In other words, i forgot our anniversary! He, on the other hand, is the one who remember!....and even hinted to me, but the date never occurs in my thick skull.....

.....and, and and......i only remember it 4 freaking days later!

Im so one of a kind...am i, huhuuh. But not much hassle for sure ;). I sincerely really forgot about it, because i was more excited on other date which is coming nearer and nearer.

Im sorry babe!.....

Forgetting that day doesnt mean a thing. He knows it, i know it. Its all in peace.....ehhe. (but i still feel bad tho).

I will post more soon....take care all

My Kitteh

Hyeena all....

Havent updated this thing for so long. I've been busy a bit and also i got no idea what to bebel. Busy bwat ape? Ade la.....hehehe. Its been busy, i even missed my guitar lesson last time cos i was busy doing my tax and bayar zakat pendapatan. I havent strum my guitar for some time already....haih. And then i got busy finding kain la, pergi taylor la, bwat kek la....ntah pape lagi la...

Its been busy i havent even watched Wolverine and many other movies. Havent got time to go on a real nice simple date for some time already, where i can dress nicely and wear my favourite perfume with DinDang. And DinDang have been busy with his work. He got this huge migration going on and sometimes he can be cranky and mad at people (that would be me, cos i can be silly and say silly stuff sometimes). I understand. But he cant be mad at me for long.....and he knows why =)

When you are busy and sometimes a bit stress, a pet is always nice to play with. I just got time to bathed my cat. I bathed her cos she barf (muntah ok!...huhuuh) on the floor and she kind'a swipe her long bushy tail on her own smelly barf....and she smell so masam. Maybe she panicked when she realized she just barf, and tried to clean up the floor with her own tail (cos i can be garang with her sometimes).

Now she's clean and she smells like johnson n' johnson baby....and no, i did not bathed her with johnson n' johnson's baby. Her soap smells like that.



Here she looks very comot. You see, she has quite a short nose. Not short like exotic cat, but still a short nose. Her tear duct is short and her tears would flow out of her eyes and become dried later....and that would stain under her eyes. Sometimes its funny, cos it looks like she has eye-bags...like she's sick. She always cleans her face. She's very hygenic and vain dan pentingkan kecantikan. One time i forgot to clean up her litter box and she rebel and she peed and pooped just outside the litter box. My fault i forgot to clean up her toilet.

She is an adult cat now. She has her horny season. We tried to match her with the vet's cat. An exotic long hair, with black and white coat and beautiful wide eyes.....named Secret. But apparently Secret is not her taste. I think Secret is adorable. But she hates him. I dunno whats wrong with her. If only she can talk and tell me whats wrong.

Does Secret has smelly armpit? Does Secret farts a lot? Does she want hidung mancung and not exotic ones like Secret? Anybody has a handsome, healthy, good breed, tested for disease, male cat to mate with her? Well, i have one cat in mind....that is Rerey. But gonna wait for his coat to tumbuh first. Tuan dia, si Lina tu dah cukur bulu dia habis gonjeng....hehehhe.



This pic of Rerey is taken from Lina's blog post

I think sometimes she's afraid of me, cos i can be garang to her sometimes. But i know she loves me still....hehehe. Well, Ella-girl was a present to me. A present from DinDang. At that time, Ella was only 2 months old, now she's maybe around 1 1/2 yrs. Now, me, my sister and DinDang loves her and takes care of her. That time me and Din were not in good terms and Ella was one of his try to pujuk me. Well, long story..... =)

Now....new story.
Till next time.....xoxo.
