Nubhan's - Aku Ada Untuk Mu

Minutes before I arrived at my office this morning this new song which Nubhan sang during the finals of the AF6 concert came on air. My car was already parked but I stayed on for a litttle longer to wait for this song to finish. After listening to it, I had this sudden melancholy feeling. Napa entah....ader lah teringat kan seseorang yg pernah berkata sedemikian kepada daku. Oww....jiwang la plak!!!

I was glad that Nubhan's performance was already on You Tube and the lyrics of this song was also up in Sultan Muzaffar's blog.

Aku Ada Untukmu

Di sana pungguk menanti
Mengharap bulan membalas rindu di hati
Di sini aku berdiri
Menunggu penuh dengan kesabaran
Tanpa manis madah
Janji yang puitis
Tuk persembahan
Hanya ketulusan
Sekeping hati suci

Aku
Berikan kasih
Kalau itu yang kau mahu dari ku
Aku
Berikan cinta
Untuk membahagiakan hari mu
Aku
Sayang dirimu (menyayangimu)
Biarpun nafas ku sampai terhenti
Akan ku kota janji kita
Mendirikan Taj Mahal cinta
Seteguh kasih
Shah Jehan kepada Mumtaznya
Terasa indah pabila berdua
Semakin tiba saat bahagia
Merai cinta kita

Song : Zeti Akmar
Lyrics: Abie Abdullah

Adlin Arman Ramli - GO HOME!!!!

I am watching the AF final concert as I write this entry. All five students Toi, Riz, Nubhan, Nadia and Stacy have performed their 1st round of songs. Performance wise, they averagely did ok. Obviously there were some who were better than the other. Adat lah kan...bila competition. There are ok ones and there are some not so ok ones. Nama nyer pun students. Budak-budak who have gone through about 10 weeks of vocal trainings and performance coaching in an academy called Akademi Fantasia.

Nadia

I don't want to say much about the students' performance. What irks me so much is one jury at this concert. I personally feel this particular jury is so unfair with his comments. He said some unbecoming words while he commented one student's performance. The student is Nadia, a small petite girl who has a powerful voice. It was obvious that Adlin favours this Nadia girl. Thus giving such glorious comments on Nadia's performace. However, as he patronizes Nadia, he insensitively made a remark comparing Nadia's performance to the other two students Nubhan & Toi.

Toi

Adlin made this remark saying that he wants to see more of Nadia's powerful like performance and not those "tak bertenaga" ones of Nubhan and Toi. Wei...hello....Mr Adlin have you no sense of fair judgement? Nadia had like 8 back up dancers with her during her performance. Nubhan and Toi were left to sing on their own on the big and spacious stage. They were left to capture the audience attention solely with their own acts. They moved around on stage with their simple dance. Simple yet enough to entertain the audience. Well, I was entertained.

Nubhan

So what I am getting at is that this arrogant Mr Adlin has got things too much up his head. Be fair with your comments. Yes, Adlin has his own talk show. But, if I were to list out his hambar jokes in his talk show, he'd probably not have his contract renewed for the another season. So, I'm telling u ADLIN....go home....stop picking on these kids. Keep your mouth shut...zip!!!

For those of you who don't know what am I rattling about, it's OK. I just need an outlet to kutuk this Adlin guy. Anyway, this is my blog so I am free to write what I like.

Mohabbatein - Love Stories

I am feeling kinda stressed as the weekend approaches. Very much due to the back to back deadlines of FRPs (request for proposal) for submission to clients. My sister had buzzed me Friday evening telling me that ISETAN was having a sale for members. Also that night Muni informed that Parkson is also having a sale. Arkhhsss...apa ni!! I should be out there doing retail therapy. But instead I am bogged with work and more work. This really sulks!!

So this afternoon with some push and encouragements from Nissa, I am determined to get the propasals completed. Esok boleh gi jalan-jalan. And perhaps do some baking too. Ummppp...lama dah tak indulge in those yummy cupcakes. Sinful pun sinful lah...

I scanned the programs on tv to see which one would be good in keeping me company while I do my work. Nothing very, very interesting though. Then I switched to TV3 and this Hindi movie - Mohabbatein was just about to start. Ok lah...citer hindustan pun citer hindustan lah. Perhaps this would help churn more ideas out of me.

So..layan lah lagu lentok in this movie. Some familiar tunes came on air. Ayooo...such beautiful tunes and in just moments, I was transported back to my Indian trips. Walking the streets of New Delhi, Calcutta and Chennai where shops were blaring tunes from the Hindi movies as if noone cared. Ishhh..rasa nak gi India la plak dah!!! Kalu dapat gi New Delhi for retail therapy, it would be really a shopping paradise. Don't know if ABE has any trips to India this year. Kalu ader, I'd drop everything and follow him. Tak kira dah RFP ker, tender ker....bhot-bhot phir bil dil hai hidustani!!

Well, thanks to Mohabbatein I managed to complete my RFP. The song towards the end of the movie sounded pretty nice. So I've decided to get the link from You Tube. Jadi, sesiapa yang nak tangkap lentok, click je lah kat the picture below..

School Uniform SEXY???!!??

The STAR newspaper published this report yesterday.

School uniform sexy, says group

KUALA LUMPUR: A Malaysian group condemned the uniform worn by girls at government schools, saying it encouraged rape and pre-marital sex.

“The white blouse is too transparent for girls and it becomes a source of attraction,” National Islamic Students Association of Malaysia vice-president Munirah Bahari said in a statement.

“It becomes a distraction to men, who are drawn to it, whether or not they like looking at it,” she said, calling for a review of uniform policy so that it did not violate Islamic ideals.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have 2 school going girls. One in the secondary school and the other is in primary school. SEXY school uniform?? It distracts MEN?? Ayooo...please lah. I get sick in the stomach even thinking about this. What has become of the world around us today??

I wore the exact same white top and turquoise sarong baju kurung uniform to school way back in the 70s. Noone said it was sexy back then. How come ah?? It didn't distract men back then?

Of course we had layers of undergarments underneath the baju kurung. And never were those white bajus transparent. Even the "kancing" of the baju kurung pun tak lepas. No matter how hot it was in the classroom. We had our teachers telling us off if the kancing ter-unhooked unintentionally (or intentionally..heh..heh).

I get my girls to do the same things I went through as a school girl. However, the roaming eyes of these perverts, I'm afraid is beyond my control. I certainly can't stop guys from looking. But, I'd like to make a plea here... Please lah you distracted MEN....keep your roaming eyes off our girls. For heavens sake, these girls are still girls. Boleh tak you all pi tengok bende lain yang boleh mendatangkan faedah??

Brewing in Vietnam

The Pride of Vietnamese Beer

This excerpt was taken from its website.

The Halida brand originates from North Vietnam and is based on an old unique Vietnamese recipe which creates a full flavoured albeit light beer taste. Today, Halida is the choice of the consumer who enjoys the fresh taste combined with its outstanding quality and reasonable prices.

Never knew "I" am popular in such a way...

Another Dentist Trip

I chickened out on my first dentist appointment for RC last week. I thought the nurse would just leave me alone, forget about me and would just give my appointment slot to another patient. Naaa...I was so wrong with my thoughts. She called when I did a no show and she quickly gave me an alternate date when I told her I couldn't make it that day. Okay lah...I guess I NEED a person like that. Someone who would PUSH me to go see the dentist.

So, yesterday at 10.30 in the morning, I dragged myself for my appointment. Fearing that I would be blue and shaky from the treatment, I got ABE to accompany me there. Yelah...mana lah tu kot-kot doctor tu bagi tripple shots of local ker...hai...memang tak jumpa jalan pulang ler daku!!

Anyway, the dentist was very professional in his work. He did an xray of my tooth and some other things to it. I could feel him injecting some gel like stuff into my tooth. I cringed when it hit the nerves and my facial expressions when berkerut-kerut. ...of course "drama" terlebih la tu. I didn't dare watch what he was doing after that. So I kept my eyes closed from then on.

All in all, everything was over in about 20 minutes. Takde la lama mana...cuma for a penakut like me, it felt ages long. Like always the charges, kalu tak cecah 3 digits tak sah. What to do...bayar je lah. The nurse fixed me another appointment which will be some time week after next.

Fuhhh...what a relief when I walked out of the door. Walked down and saw this sprawling black Rover. Sah-sah lah...tu kete dentist ku!! Hai napa lah those days tak de cita-cita nak jadik dentist...but then again....ada berani ker??? Guess...I'll just have to go dreaming on with the Rover.
