Shimah's Wedding
|
|
Nur Hashimah is her name but most friends call Shimah but to us who have known her since birth know her as Semek. Semek anak Mek Som Wea! 
Dah besar panjang ni, mak tak boleh panggil semek lagi... malu bila kawan-kawan dengar, terutamanya bila kawan tu bukan orang ganu.
mak tersasul - sasul panggil semek.
I remember her as someone who is very helpful, talkative and athletic.
She joins the police force and now works ??? Melaka? N9 ... not so sure!
Semoga bahagia ke anak cucu....!!!

An Extra Special Bride and Groom
|
|
Alkisahnya, ini anak sulong Kak Jah Pulau Rusa.
Kak Jah ni anak saudara kesayangan Bat.
Anak Kak Jah ni hensem tapi selepas demam panas masa kechil, dia dah tak boleh bercakap.
Dia bersekolah di sekolah orang kurang upaya dan bertemu jodoh di situ juga.
Kedua-dua mempelai ni tak nak kawin dengan orang normal, bukan kerana merasa rendah diri atau kekurangan sebab kecacatan tapi tak nak menyusahkan diri sendiri kalau kawin dengan orang yang tak pandai berbahasa isyarat.
Masa sampai kat rumah dia ari tu, si mempelai dok sibuk berbahasa isyarat dengan satu sama lain....... entah apa yang di perkatakan.... celah kak jah.
Ramai kawan-kawan dari sekolah hadir sama pada hari bahagia mereka.
Bat pun nak mengabadikan diri dengan cucu saudara kesayangan!
Now, it's Jr story!
As soon as he got out of the car, he ran to the back of the house and saw a ladder by the coconut tree. Well, before anyone can do anything, he was up there already!
The view was so inviting as it was during high tide and the water level is almost reaching higher ground.
Jr wanted to get onto the boat but relented after I promised that he would get on it but after we had our lunch. Thus after lunch, he went down alone and tried to get onto the boat. I had to rush eating lunch! Pity me since I had the appetite and the dishes were delicious! Jr had his wish.... Widad and Khayri wanted to get on the boat too!
Their house is flood prone area so the house is 14 feet above ground. I wish I had a photo to show how tall the house really is! A lorry can go under the house!

Steam Cockles - Kerang Rebus
|
|
Cockles used to be hard to come by.
Even if we found it at the wet market, it wasn't fresh or/and smaller in size.
Now, I can always buy cheaper, bigger and fresher morsels at Mydin. Not that I'm promoting 'Abang Mydin' but this is one of the benefit of having a giant retailer in your town.
I love it but have to eat em sparingly.
Ibu has to eat em to help increase blood count. So says ??? 
Kerang Rebus Resepi Ibu
1. Knead gently the morsels with coarse sea-salt in a bowl.
(This helps to get rid of sand, mud, or other impurities from the shell)
2. Wash them and discard the water.
3. Pour into a pot.
4. Add about half a cup of water.
5. Turn on the stove.
6. Add slices of garlic, ginger, shallot, lemon grass and a pinch of salt to taste.
6. Cover the pot and heat it on a low heat until the steam is let out.
(about 2-3 minutes)
7. Open the cover and stir a bit.
8. Turn off the stove.
9. Serve em on a platter! yummy!
NOTE: Cockles or Kerang as we know them is another variety of shellfish comes in different colours. Some have dark shells while others have fairer shells... (macam manusia jugak!)... I rarely eat clams or tiram but as a kid, I did sample some siput sedut masak lemak pucuk paku... mmm...yummy! but I haven't have any siput sedut for decades. The same goes for etak-etak... (Pasar Siti Khadijah KB is known for etak-etak salai for which I never forget to buy some whenever I found my self there!)
The breaking news...
Referring to this piece of news, I think my dad would really welcome this news.

Religious officers to be free from party politics - Raja Nazrin
BERNAMA
IPOH, WED:
The Raja Muda of Perak, Raja Dr Nazrin Shah wants all religious officers to be free from party politics or influence from political leaders in discharging their responsibilities in managing Islamic affairs.
“The Islamic religion should not be allowed to be politicised,” he said at a gathering with Territorial Chiefs and district religious administrative officers in the state at `Kompleks Islam’, here today.
Raja Nazrin pointed out that the mosques and surau should not be used as a platform to hold political functions but should instead become an instrument in uniting the ummah.
He said the Territorial Chiefs were representatives of the Sultan of Perak in their respective districts and should play a role as the `eyes and ears’ of the Sultan in monitoring Islamic religious activities in their respective areas.
Raja Nazrin said he was compelled to remind them that the Federal Constitution had emplaced the Sultan as the Head of the Religion in the state.
“The Ruler has absolute power in Islamic religious affairs. The Ruler is above party politics, independent and neutral,” the Raja Muda added.

Poor Najib
|
|
1. Just taking a glimpse through the net for the latest news.
2. Feel sorry for Najib: 1st RPK's SD and now DSAI case also being pointed to him. I don't believe that DSAI is sodomite 10 years ago than it is today. I don't belief either that Najib is involved in the murder of the Mogolian woman. I have reserved feelings in regards to his wife though as I still remember the after thoughts I had after an encounter with her years ago..."Better not be her close associate for any possible gain I might get or even be associated with her" after she said that she will not let anyone stand on the way of what she dreams off..... I don't know if today she is the same Rose I met... everything changes and people change too! as a song goes... every rose has it's thorn!
3. The Force that is without the general is implementing the plan that the general laid out before he went six feet under. or, Is there a new general now?
4. When can the elected government goes on in governing when even 3 months after the election, we are still at pre-election siege?
5. How will the elected government deal with global challenges when internal bickering is at full force?
6. Oh! well! the malay muslim goverment will get the blame when the force with vested interest is out with their game plan. The chess board is on the table... lets the game begin!
8. politics = poly (many) -->> ticks (blood sucking insects)
9. Allah is Great! May Allah helps us all through the tough time ahead! ameen!
PS: I think anwar and Najib should call it a truce and joint forces to lead ... I also cannot shake off the idea that the latest anwar spotlight is carefully planned and executed by the foxes who keep following him and are close enough to him to whisper that it was najib's doing... 1st get a young foal, get him to cooperate with enough incentive, (that lad had to go to many police station to file the report until he found one that would take his report upon learning the person he is accusing) once the report is made, the motion is set... get in the threat on anwar's life and get him to go to foreign consulate to get maximum international coverage.... BN goverment is in the ugly spotlight already! bla, bla, bla, bla...
It seems like "THEY" are adamant on pitting the muslims malays suspicious and distrustful of one another, especially those of special talents.
My mind got fixated on a few names thinking about the first conspiracy ... mus, gani, umi, khayri, exam, radi... and ... maybe they were there or just happened to be thinking about the same thing.
Got to stop before I ramble on...
Ya Rabb! forgive us!

Masjid Kristal Lagiii
|
|
During recent school holidays, there were many weddings of relatives and friends children that we attended. Somehow, I still haven't have time to upload the wedding photos.
The trip to Masjid Kristal wasn't planned but just happened as we went from a wedding to next and found ourselves heading there... The muezzin just called the 'azan' - the call to prayer as we arrived at the parking bay....
New academic year will begin tommorow as new intakes will be here to register for their first semester at the university. That means we will get busy once again!

Going into a mussolla
Some of the things that were taken off before wudhu and solat...
Some of the things that I saw on my friends...
Something we all enjoyed that day... if served in our own kitchen, our kids would consumed all and still have the gut asking if there are anymore...

Nostalgia
|
|
No rain or shine
No thunder or lightening
my thoughts drifted away
blurry images from the past
emerging
sharpening
The old Qur'an covered from dust
with its' jacket already peeling off
I picked
In slow motion
leafing through the pages
full of personal notes of the yesteryears
There was something that I was searching for
in between these pages
not meanings of life
or guidance that I seek
but a token.
A rose that was presented to me long ago
through a messenger
a mask of intense so true and real feelings
but unrequited love
preserved between the pages of sacred words
May God bless you and your family!
the prayer I offer for thee
after all the years went by
thoughts of you still fleeting by
as I stare into whats' left of you
safely tucked away
between the pages of old.

1. PRU12 is long gone but the jitters linger on.
2. The people is grappling with the ripple effects of petrol price hike and seemingly the uncertainty in the nations' politics.
3. The effort to undermine Malaysian stability and solidarity is at full force.
4. The tale spinner is smiling broadly savouring every last drip of nectar from the fruit harvested from years of toil, so he think! God is Great! For He is the Master Creator! House of card doesn't stand tall in the slightest wind!
5. The words from the Prince Regent of Perak, Raja Nazrin Shah rings the chill deep into my bone! I sure hope that all Muslim Malay leaders heed the call to unite as a front to deal with global challenge.
6. So leaders of the nation! Stop keeping company with wolves and attentively listen to every tale spin by them let alone let them do the strategy thinking on your behalf. Seek forgiveness and Allah's guidance before any major decision as a Muslim should. Do not rely 100% on logic of the brain as human is made up of more than just brain matter!
7. So many are being dragged willingly or for a compensation or forcefully by threat to abet in the tale spinner long term plan.
8. Most even are not aware that they are being used. Some even downright being hallucinatory, seeing things that were projected in a halo and suggesting that it is the truth and the whole truth.
9. I urged all Muslim (a call and reminder to my self too!) to bow down to One God, seek forgiveness and ask to be guided aright! May we be shown with certainty in our heart beyond the smoke screen and fog of the truth and May Allah gives us strength to act and be steadfast. AMEEN!

Ini dia artikel yang di baca di utusan.com.my yang menyirapkan bulu roma! Terasa seperti Raja Nazrin sedang memberi peringatan kepada pemimpin-pemimpin islam melayu....

Melayu perlu kuat - Jangan sampai terima nasib terpaksa musafir di bumi sendiri – Raja Nazrin
Oleh ABDUL RAZAK DIN
KUALA KANGSAR 21 Jun – Raja Muda Perak, Raja Dr. Nazrin Shah bertitah bangsa Melayu perlu kuat daripada segala aspek supaya terus gagah, berhati cekal, bersemangat waja dan berupaya mendaki gunung tinggi serta bertenaga menyeberangi lautan luas.
Titah baginda, adalah malang jika bangsa Melayu menerima nasib bagaikan dagang di kampung sendiri dan terpaksa bermusafir di bumi sendiri.
“Anak bangsa yang telah berjaya, janganlah berperangai seperti si Tenggang, terlalu cepat bersifat angkuh, terlalu mudah berlagak bongkak, hingga melupakan asal keturunan, hingga memisahkan diri dari akar bangsanya, menjadi rakus, menjadi gopoh, hingga tergamak menebang pohon tempat bernaung dan mencantas dahan tempat bergantung,’’ titah baginda.
Baginda bertitah demikian pada majlis Hari Ucapan dan Penyampaian Hadiah Maktab Melayu Kuala Kangsar (MCKK) 2008 di sini hari ini.
Raja Nazrin bertitah, kejayaan anak bangsa pada masa sekarang adalah atas pengorbanan, keringat, kesusahan dan usaha generasi terdahulu.
Titah baginda, bangsa yang dapat meneruskan kelangsungan dan mengekalkan tamadun agungnya adalah bangsa yang tidak memutuskan diri dengan akar sejarah, malah senantiasa menghargai pengorbanan generasi terdahulu.
Baginda bertitah, MCKK menjadi kampung cerdik pandai Melayu yang terpilih daripada kalangan yang paling cerdas berasaskan prestasi pencapaian akademik.
‘‘Di sinilah asuhan, di sinilah bimbingan dilakukan dalam usaha membina modal insan untuk meneruskan kelangsungan bangsa di bumi warisan turun temurun.
“Permata-permata bangsa ini diserahkan untuk digarap, dicanai oleh barisan para pendidik. Garap dan canailah permata-permata bangsa ini supaya dapat menyinar cahaya kepada bangsanya dan negara.
‘‘Bisikkan kepada mereka akan petua orang- orang tua bahawa kiambang adalah kiambang, biduk berlalu bertautlah ia.
‘‘Pesankan kepada mereka jangan terlalu cepat bermusuh dengan kawan dan jangan terlalu ghairah bersahabat dengan musuh kerana sejak zaman dahulu lagi, terlalu banyak musang yang berbulu ayam, terlalu banyak sokong yang membawa rebah.
‘‘Ingatkanlah mereka akan sejarah bangsanya yang bernegara berlandaskan adat rakyat bersultan, negeri beraja,’’ titahnya.
Raja Nazrin bertitah, untuk itu, negara perlu melihat kedudukan MCKK daripada kaca mata penilaian yang berbeza dan tidak wajar disamakan dengan mana-mana institusi pendidikan lain.
Titah baginda, berasaskan akar sejarah penubuhannya, identiti MCKK daripada segi bentuk, tenaga pengajar, kurikulum dan kokurikulum harus mempunyai keunikan.
‘‘MCKK perlu senantiasa disuntik dengan nafas baru agar kekal dihormati sebagai institusi pendidikan menengah yang terunggul di negara ini.
‘‘Beta insaf betapa pentingnya kualiti, betapa mustahaknya taraf pendidikan di kolej ini ditingkatkan bertaraf dunia agar tradisi melahirkan barisan pemimpin yang berwibawa dapat diteruskan.
‘‘Dan keupayaan menghasilkan wira bangsa yang hebat berpencak di gelanggang dunia dapat dilaksanakan,’’ titah baginda. |

Hari Potensi Kemas 2008
|
|
Event: Hari Potensi Kemas 2008
Venue: Dewan Al-Muktafi Billah Shah, UDM, Kampus KUSZA
Date: June 19-21, 2008
Khairi and his friends from Tadika Kemas Kampung Beladau Kolam are representing Parlimen Hulu Terengganu at the state level for Nasyid competion for preschoolers after their group became a champion at the District level.
So, we went for moral support this time since I didn't get to go the last time when they compete in Kuala Berang for the district level. Twice we went. Once for the actual competition and second for the closing ceremony. The whole kampung folks with kids involved in the nasyid team packed up the whole family and headed to Dewan Al-Muktafi Billah Shah.
When the announcer announced that their group won a second place, everyone felt relief because none was prepared to accompany their kids at the national level competition which will be held in Kuala Lumpur. At least, they won the first place once already!
Here are some photos captured during the closing ceremony which was officiated by the minister of rural and regional development, YB Senator Tan Sri Dato' Seri Muhammad bin Muhammad Taib.
Jr was left at home in the care of his uncle AyahNik during the night if the competition. However, he came along during the closing ceremony and we had to leave the hall before the minister arrive and spent the rest of the time in Mummy's office which is just next door
We came in just in time for Khairi and his friend to receive their throphy from the minister.
photos from the competition night is here http://picasaweb.google.com/raemont991/June08NasyidKairi
