Bengkak!

Kaki Erma dah bengkak (lagi!)...

Tetibe pagi td dlm kesibukan aku nak g kije....

"Erma: Abg... cuba tgk kaki..

Aku: Aik? Dah surut bengkaknye? (Dlm hati: Alamak!! Rilex An..rilex! Cover Line cepat!) Ala... blm lagi ni. Syg sabar eh...Pape bgtau abg tau! Syg Ok?

Erma: Ok...pape nnti org bgtau abg k.."

Aku gubra gak le pagi td... Smpai opis trus aku tanye bekas2 & sedang pregnant ladies kat opis aku psl Erma. Bkn ape..weekend lepas mase kat umah m ngah aku d jb (belah an lagi...), mem & m cik2 aku semua ckp benda yg sama:

"Eii..bengkaknye kaki awk Erma! Dah x lama lagilah tu....Surut je bengkak tu nanti beranak la awk..."

Gulp!

Itu yg bermain dlm pikiran aku sepanjang perjalanan ke opis pagi tadi. Bkn apa.. takut time Erma nak branak, aku xder kat sisi dia je...Bkn x ready lagi ke apa...

So opismate aku bgtau yg bile dah surut bengkak 2nd time, then akan bengkak blk. Then baru akan beranak..

Owh..chenggitu plak tanda2 nak branak. Manela aku tau.. Bknnye ade pengalaman pun lagi. First time beb!

So guys... Doakan moga Erma & baby slamat masa deliver nanti k! Thanks in advance. Doakan la moga aku x pengsan ke...lagi over dr Erma ke...or mcm Ross kena sigung dlm cite Friend bile Rachel nak branak. Ross ble ckp: "u dont have any idea how painful it is" If aku ckp mcm tu time2 mcm tu, mau Erma terajang je aku agaknye....hehe

Liverpool 2 - 0 Manchester United: Torres..Torres

If ade good thing com out from the game for us is that we show them who we are now mcm dlm gmbr kat atas ni.

Saves: 3

FOULS COMMITTED: 20

Aku ble bg mcm2 alasan yg contribute to kekalahan MU di Anfield. Dari 'Jetlag' balik dari Moscow hari Khamis lepas, Fletcher yg lom fully fit utk main, Ferdinand form yg mcm yo-yo, Ref? ..x byk membantu kalo tgk dari match stats kat atas ni dan mcm2 lah alasan lagi.

Tp as a diehard MU fan, aku mengaku yg the better team won the game. Liver control the midfield in the 2nd half yg contribute to kemenangan mereka.

Bole lah mereka riak dgn rekod kemenangan 3x berturut2 ke atas MU dlm 22 tahun. Tp...MU x perlu riak dlm masa 22 tahun ni, kite dah buat 4 kemenangan berturut2 sblm season lepas. Itu x termasuk rekod2 lain. MU x perlu riak pasal tu.

Mcmane lepas ni?

Ada beberapa soalan aku nak tanye those betul2 Liverpool supporter..

If Gerrard x sempat baik esok, can Liver reach knock out stage UCL? Jgn lupe..Lyon bknlah lwn yg senang utk ditundukkan ditempat sendiri.

Mcmane plak dgn Fulham? dan seterusnya...

Heheh...

MU have qualify to the knock out stage of UCL, so can Liver follow?

FB aku, phone aku..senyap beberapa hari b4 last sunday game. Ade yg tukar team, dah x sokong Liver lagi..sokong Real lah, Barca lah etc...

Tp bile menang jer lwn MU...penuh inbox aku ngan sms2 bebudak Liver...Teruklah korg ni. Bile team korg kalah, mane pegi korg? Silence is golden konon. Sokong time team kuat jer buatpe... Baik korg sokong Kedah ke, Perlis ke Kelantan ke..at least ble ar tgk team tu main tiap2 minggu.

Semua sms tu senang je aku jwb:

"Best team won the game, but it doesnt meant that you have won the title!"

Glory Glory Man United!

Haji dan bulan November...

For those yg dah bace entry blog wife aku, mesti korg dah tau yg Mak aku akan berangkat ke tanah suci Mekah.

Tp bkn 26hb Oktober spt yg ditulis Erma, but defer to 18th November 2009. Dijangka pulang Insyallah 31 December 2009.

Byk perkara dah line up utk aku & Erma utk bln November ni. Kerja Kawin, Mak nak g haji, keje kawin kazen aku & persediaan utk Erma bersalin.

So... pas ni, paling jauh aku akan bawa Erma is Melaka, itupon kalau dia larat. Erma dah 34 minggu dah skrg ni. Skrg ni kire dah masuk minit pertama masa kecederaan. So kena la take lots of precaution measure.

Harap aku pun larat gak....hehe.

Alza di beri nama....

Haishh...

Bukan nama anak aku lah!

Aku pon x tau lagi laki ke perempuan, camana nak bagi nama... (Serious beb!)

Inilah nama Perodua MPV baru yang akan dilancarkan pada pertengahan November 2009.

Lebih kurang mcm ni le MPVnye

Utk further details...tunggu...

hehe

Tanggungjawab

Masa aku bujang tak lama dulu, aku telah set beberapa kriteria utk bakal girlfriend aku. Among the criteria are: menarik perhatian aku, pandai blend in dgn org ramai, bukan anak pertama dalam keluarga dan ada lagilah yg lain. And of coz, Erma have most of the criteria.

Mesti ada yg tanye knape perlu girlfriend aku kena pandai blend-in dgn org ramai? Well itu bersangkut paut dgn keluarga aku yg besar. Bkn adik beradik aku but famili mak bapak aku.
Kenapa plak perlu bukan anak pertama? Itu senang jer. Aku anak sulung dari dua beradik dalam keluarga ayah aku yg kecik jer. Dah tentu mak bapak aku akan harapkan aku bila aku dah besar dan mak ayah aku dah tua. Adik aku masih belajar. So dah tentu aku org harapan mak ayah aku skrg ni. Mak aku dah berumo 64 tahun manakala ayah aku berumo 69 tahun. Ayah aku bkn ble drive jejauh lagi dah. Mata x nmpk. Malam pun x ble drive keta sbb silau. Mak aku? She’s the typical type of house wife. Masak, menjahit, jaga anak & other household work, you can count on her. Tp bile bab drive keta, computer savvy and other technical things, you can count her out. So apa patut aku buat? Korg pk ar sendiri.

Aku bersyukur dpt Erma. She definitely complete me. She understand my situation. Sblm kitorg kawin, aku ada bgtau my situation and she fully understand it. Dia jugak bgtau her situation, so aku pon fully understood it.

Unfortunetely, among her situation - eventhough Erma anak kedua dlm keluarga.... tp dia mcm anak pertama dlm keluarga. Erma ada 4 adik beradik; seorg abg, seorg adik perempuan, 2 org adik lelaki. Dari 5 beradik ni, 3 dah kije. Sorg tgh separuh kerja separuh blaja & sorg lagi keja kat kg sambil jg mak abah. Reason ngape aku ckp Erma cam anak pertama is that abg sulung dia ni sejak start kije pas abis blaja, dia MIA. So... pape, mak abahnye harapkan Erma lah. Kekadang aku bengang gak. Semua nak harapkan Erma. But bile aku pk balik, kesian pun ade. Kesian lagi aku tgk mak abah yg mengharapkan anak sulung dia buat mcm yg aku nak buat. So lama2 aku paham sendiri lah.

Alhamdulillah, sejak Abg Erma aka Gudik dah kawin ni. He’s more involve in family matters. Mungkin bile dah berkeluarga ni, dia dah berubah harapnye. Go Gudik!

Itulah tanggungjawab sebagai seorg anak. If anak ramai dan memasing bertanggunjawab terhadap mak bapaknye. Alhamdulillah, sejuk hati mak bapaknye.

Knape aku cite semua ni?

Sbb aku bengang.

Aku bengang dgn org yg x paham situasi aku & Erma. Aku, sbgai wakil mak ayah aku kena la involve dgn most xtvt keluarga aku buat. Tp itu x bermakna aku x adil dgn program keluarga Erma. Aku sanggup x tlg wedding kazen aku, Ezuan sbb clash dgn wedding kazen Ema, Wiena. Ezuan tu among kazen rapat aku tau. Itu 1 contoh jer. X masuk yg lelain.

Aku bengang bile ada org tanya wife aku bile diorg buat sudden plan and unfortunetely aku & Ema dah ada plan lain yg dah kitorg plan way earlier, ble plak org ni ckp “asyik belah an jer”. For the record, aku ngan Ema x simpan rahsia between us. So apa jer crite, aku dan Ema akan berkongsi cerita. Org ni x tau agaknye erti berkeluarga rasanye. Org ni jgk penah bwk mulut nak laga2kan Erma ngan makcik2 dia. Smpai nangis ar Erma masa tuh. Aku mmg nak maki jer org ni. Tp Erma larang. Nasib baik ler sedara. If x, sorry ler aku nak berbaik2 dgn dia.

Harap bile org ni dah kawin, dia akan faham tanggungjawab sebagai sorg anak & jugak menantu. Jgn jadi menantu hantu dah. Hehe....

Happy Diwali!

For those who celebrating the festival of light, I wish you all a bright & prosperous Deepavali.

P/s: Deepavali..deepavali jugak, Raya tetap beraya. Bkn stakat beraya, kenduri kawin pon ade! Tapi pelik.... ngape xder yg invite aku dtg beraya hari Sabtu ni, eh? Semua pakat buat hari Ahad. Takut org mislead korg sambut Deepavali ker? hehe..

Ayah! Selamat Hari Lahir!!

To my ayah...

I have sent my wish prior, during & now after your birthday. I wish your health, strength (bapak aku kuat orgnye! eventho kecik je orgnye) & of coz happiness always with mak (of coz). Amin.

You are the greatest dad I can ever wish for. I am bless/syukur being your son.

Soon, I'll follow your footstep. I will try my very best to become a great dad like you. Coz you have taught me well.

I will take care of my prince or princess just like you have taken care of me for all these years. I will not disappoint you, ayah. I will try to be as tough, rajin and other good quality which you have for my family.

Happy birthday, Ayah!

New car models coming our way!

For those who regularly check out Malaysia Automotive news, I believe most of you guys already know what Im babbling about, right?

Come mid November 09, Perodua will finally going to unveil their new model: the MPV. Currently using codename D46T, development of this model are on schedule and by early of Nov, media will be invited to take a peek on the new Perodua baby.

By the look of the photo spreading in the internet, seems like this mpv will definitely will be a hit. Not to forget with the marketing strategy of putting the price below than RM66K, it will definitely will be a major added point for the mpv. Already the selling of other mpv i.e. Avanza and Livina has drop as people are playing wait and see until this mpv launch.

Will it take on Exora market share? Most definitely will do. Among the factors are the price, branding power, and of coz...the engine capacity. Perodua mpv will be using 1.5L engine while Exora are currently using 1.6L engine. Just compare the size of both models, and you'll get what I mean. Having said that, with the recent launching of the new turbocharged CamPro CPS 1.6L by YDP Agung in Lotus HQ in UK, it still 'grey' in term of people reaction when the Exora will be equip with the new 1.6L turbocharge CamPro engine.

Since we're talking about Proton, do they have any new models roll up their sleeves? Other than the recently launch Saga SE, Proton are in the midst of finalizing the Persona facelift. Dont expect to much changes from the current Persona SE. After all its just a 'facelift'.

Is that all from Proton? Nop. Currently Proton are studying in rebadging the current Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0L. Sources says that if Mitsubishi Japan approve Proton proposal, we will ber seeing a rebadge Lancer (with Proton badge on it of coz) roll out from Proton plant somewhere mid of next year.

Price? Hey! other question please! hehe.. Well price do play a big factor in current scenario, right? Well.... with local assembly plus local supplier (which are supplying or the vendor technical partners supplying to MMC, of coz!) expecting the price to be in the region RM100K and below. But of coz there is a catch here... It come will lower spec than the Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0L with variance of 1.8L & 2.0L engine.

Other than the rebadge Lancer, Proton are studying on their latest model call Persona R. It will be a complete new Persona. Prototpye stage start 3rd quarter next year with launching expectings somewhere 2nd half of 2011.

How about other brand? Honda are also in the midst of preparing their new Civic. Expecting to hit the road 2nd half next year. Nissan also will be launching their locally assemble Splyphy soon.

I will update the development these models & other new models soon. In the meantime, enjoy your waits for the new Perodua mpv. Heard the model name start with an A... Care to guess?

Kaum! Aum!!

Aku rasa lah kan... Selepas jer DSAI dipecat tahun 1998, mcm2 benda yg x pernah kite terpk akan terjadi di negara kita, boleh terjadi among others: Demonstrasi jalanan secara ganas, sumpah menyumpah, liwat & of coz racial tension.

Psl demonstrasi jalanan & others tu korg ble tafsirkan sendiri lah. Aku cuma nak touch psl racial tension jer. Bkn ape, aku nak ceritakan pengalaman aku psl duduk dlm masyarakat multiracial. If kite tgk skrg ni, Melayu, Cina & India dah mcm berpecah belah. Dulu perkara psl azan, kuil or other matter which related to racial matters, we discuss secara aman. If ader yg x puas ati, diorg akan buat demonstrasi secara aman or bentang kain rentang jer. Not like now...

Aku ni dibesarkan di estet. Bapak aku keja kat Sagil Estate, Tgkak, Johor. Tmpt aku ni kira dekat ar dgn Gunung Ledang. Air kat umah pon x payah byr coz pakai air gunung. Sejuk woo!! kalau mandi. Biasa la, if dok dlm estet, dah tentu ade cine, melayu & india kerja dlm estet tuh. Since bpk aku kerja middle class, So mcm dlm piramid mknn, kitorg ni kira dok tgh2 diantara mgmt & pekerja.

Mcm biasalah, aku mesti akan rapat dgn anak2 jiran umah bersebelahan & bersekolah kat Tgkak. Jauh gak ar. Kena naik bas dlm 2o min baru smpai skolah. Nak buat mcmane, pekan Sagil (masa tu ar) blm ader skolah menengah. So kena ar g jauh sket. So ramai kawan aku terdiri dari cina & india. Melayu pon ada gak, tp most of them kwn kat skolah jer since diorg ni dok Tgkak.

Rakan2 baik mase tuh (from tadika to secondary school) ialah Pratheep, Shah, Chai, Kevin, Azril, Leong, Surian, Mazlan a.k.a udit, Vishnu etc. Ni lah kengkawan aku dari kecik smpai ler masuk sek men. Kitorg mmg rapat, main bola, rounders, mandi sungai, swimming pool, ketuk ayam (wonder whether u guys know or not bout this game. ader nama lain but aku lupa), badminton, guli, perang2 among others. Even golf pon kitorg main. Cam biasa la, game yg kitorg main ikut musim. If tgh musim Piala Thomas, sebok lah main badminton etc.

Nak di jadikan cerita, Estet tmpt tinggal kitorg ni almost every year ade buat sukaneka. Mcm2 game ader. Bolasepak, tarik tali, lari dlm guni, merentas desa etc. Tp family aku slalu jd penganjur jer instead of participant. Tapi x tau camane, ada 1 tahun tuh, mak aku participate dlm tarik tali & menang plak tuh!! Then mgmt estet ni plan nak suruh bebudak estet ni assemble team bola utk participate. Aku pon organize ar satu team bola terdiri dari most of kwn2 aku & ader ar beberapa org yg nak cukupkan korum. 1 team kena ade 15 org. Ramai tuh!! (FYI, umah aku ni terletak betul2 dpn padang bola. So mmg, almost tiap2 petang mmg turun main bola.)

Last2 masa pendaftaran tuh ada 2 team jer. 1 team rojak (team aku ler tu) & 1 team consist of indian jer (most of them anak2 pekerja yg mmg ramai!). Mgkin tgk 2-2 team ni cam x balance jer. Kena ar pecahkan 2-2 team so that x berat sebelah. Dah selesai bahagi2 kedua2 team, undi pulak nak bezakan team. Team aku pakai baju & team lagi 1 kena bukak baju, so b4 kick-off amik ler gmbr....

Nmpak mane aku ker?

Since kitorg ni x penah main sekali, memang main buruk sekali ar. Dah mcm semut hurung gula. Mane bola tuh pegi, kerumun ar bebudak kejar bola tuh... Aku pon cam dah mls ar nak main. Jalan jer kat tgh padang smbil borak ngan kekwn aku. If ikutkan dr statistik (ceh! mcm ade jer) team aku mmg lauk ar. Nasib baik GK aku mmg superb ar. Ditambah ngan xde luck team lwn, team aku berjaya menang game tuh 1-0. Agak2 korg, sape la score gol kemenangan tuh, ek? heh heh..akulah org nye.

Sejak dari tu, kwn aku makin ramai. Bkn pasal aku score gol kemenangan, but since that game, kitorg yg main bola time tu continue main bola bersama pas sukaneka tuh.

Mmg ar ader gaduh2. Adat berkawan ar. But xder ar smpai menghina mencaci membunuh ke. Pas gaduh, kitorg kwn balik.

Eventho aku dah lost contact ngan most of kwn kecik aku, but aku still remember & bandingkan dgn aper yg terjadi skrg. Yg Cina brkwn ngan cina jer, yg india brkwn ngan india jer. Melayu? sama jugak la. Even Melayu pon berpuak2 gak. Sedih gak aku tgk. Tp nak buat mcmane, korg sendiri yg nak jadi mcm tuh.

Bwk2 ar baca Al-Quran, mane ade ayat2 dlm Al-Quran yg nak kite benci membenci sesama agama apatah lagi duduk kat dlm satu daerah ker negara ker rumpun ker...

If terus jadi mcm ni ar, kite ni serupa jer ngan Palestin & Israel tuh. Or Fatah & Shi'ah. Sesama Islam tp berlainan fahaman. Cmane ar Palestin nak aman? Kita pon kelak boleh jadi mcm tuh.

So pikir-pikirkan ler kgkwn semua!
