5 Electrifying Events! Yehaaa!

I have only been away for a week but it feels like a month. I guess it is because of the activities that I have been filling my days with. Yes, my life has been quite exciting these past few days. Alhamdulillah. I concur with @DanialMann who tweeted that he was too young to feel bored to the extent only known by him yesterday. It is indeed such a waste to live your everyday life with doing nothing. It is okay to do the same lame routines each day because a routine is akin to a responsibility that you are obligated to perform. Nonetheless, we still need to add a little more effort to vivify and enrich our as dead as a doornail days so that we have something learnable to tell our kids in the future.

Do you get what I mean?

In order to restrain myself from blabbering too much which I suppose always annoys you to death, I am going to put a few pictures that will tell you what I have done and of course, with brief explanations. I am afraid some of you cannot read pictures. Moreover, a single picture is said to be worth a thousand words. We might happen to decipher the pictures in two distinct ways. Just so you know, different people have different views. And every individual is entitled to their respective views.

See? I have started to talk hogwash. We had better get going now! I mean, at this very moment.

1) Jeffry ♥ Zila
On 21st January, I attended a wedding of my maternal cousin’s who happened to marry his own neighbor who lived just next to his house. As ordinary as other kids are, they both used to play together when they were nippers and had never thought of marrying each other. Who would have ever thought, right? Unless they are as puckish as I am but the fact is, they are not. Congratulations, Abang Jeffry and Kak Zila. Lots of love from KLANG!


2) Step-niece’s Engagement
The next day after my cousin’s wedding day, my family and I were invited to my step-niece’s engagement. Basically, her father is my paternal cousin. It was a last-minute invitation, I suppose. I am not any close with her. I went there for the sake of cherishing the bond between my family and relatives. Not more than that. There are no photos of my step-niece. Why would I take her picture, right? But there are snapshots of me and my dear cousins and real nieces. HAHAHA!



3) Triplets’ Birthday

Nah, they are not really triplets. They were born on different years yet on the same date which was 18 January. They whom I am referring to are my elder brother, younger sister and nephew. We merely had a small party and invited a number of people. It was fun, though. My one-year-old nephew was not scared of anybody and in fact, he approached every guest with his incredibly adorable smile and welcoming touch. His name is Ahmad Wildan and do you know what it means? He is one of those angels who are going to take care of the girls in heaven. A bidadara syurga.

4) A Baby Shindig


After several years of being away from each other, we finally met at a baby shindig. Alhamdulillah. Studying in different institutions makes it hard for us to congregate for our holidays hardly clash. I last met @sakinahzahri on the last day of SPM which was approximately two years ago. Two years ago, man! Only God knows how badly I missed her. I could not thank God enough for giving us an opportunity to get together again. Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah. God blesses my friends.

5) Job Interview
Guess what, fella? I finally got myself a job! Starting from this coming 31st January, I’ll be working at a new Giant Mall near my house. And I finally have reason to wake up early in the morning. I am tired of my lifelessness. It just has to end. I went for the job interview today and got accepted right away, Alhamdulillah. Imma earn some ka-ching-ching-ching! Woot-woot!

Ps; I have lost the confidence to write in English ever since I got my second MUET result. And my writing has also become weaker since then. English experts, do help me correct all the grammatical errors found in any posts. Thank you in advance.

What a bizarre want!

^{source; google}

Call me a freak, but all I want from the guy, on whom I currently have a crush, to do for me in particular is to regard me as his little sister even though the difference between our ages is not as big as it is between me and Khairul Helmi. God, I am sorry for I keep on mentioning his name. I am over him but he used to be the greatest thing that had ever happened in my life. How could I forget him?

It has been four years, though.

Okay, that’s not the point. Let us keep that aside. Well guys, I presently have my eyes on someone whom I first met at a big event which was held for the second time about three months ago. Yes, I did make an entry about the event and whom I met on that day. Go through my archives if you are too eager to know what event it was.

I thought that he was my passing-interest – I still do somehow – but when a cousin of mine sort of keeps sending me some photos of him, I think I am growing to like him even more deeply. He is not that kind of guy who is near to perfection but he is attractive in a way that none of the adjectives I know of can define.

Yeah, like seriously!

What moves me to want to be regarded as his little sister is because of the awkwardness I think he might feel if we meet again.

We are not any close, you know? I don’t even think he realizes that we have met before. At the event, of course. So, if he thinks me as a proper psycho who is madly crushing on him, he’ll definitely feel so awkward, right?

If I ever want to take a picture with him, the awkwardness is gonna conquer him all and he will be hesitant about how close he should be to me. I mean, the literal distance when taking the picture. I want him to at least put his arm around my shoulder at his pleasure. Like best buddies liddat, you know?

Whatever it is, this is a mere dream which I believe would not come true. Why? It is because I am out of his league. He is like a very cool and stylish guy who can afford branded thingy whereas I can hardly afford a RM40 pair of shoes. Moreover, we are embarking on two different journeys. He is into broadcasting while I am .. I don’t even know what I am into! Oh God.

I am such an unorganized ladeyh!

Besides, he already has a sister. A damn cute little sister, I tell you. Can you imagine what he would say if I were to propose him to be my brother? Well, at least what I have in my head is him saying straight to my face, “I already have a sister” and sniggering at me.

It just is a miracle if the guy that you like, likes you in return.

4 tarikan Ustaz Don Danial

Assalamualaikum w.b.t buat pembaca Khakihaku sekalian! Walaupun aku tidak pasti jika blog aku yang serba kekurangan ini masih dilawati dan dibaca isinya ataupun tidak, aku lebih gemar memupuk nilai optimis dalam diri ini. Semoga kita sentiasa dicucuri rahmat-Nya dari seharike sehari, insyaALLAH dan amin ya rabbal alamin.

Aku terdetik untuk menulis entri ini sebaik sahaja aku menonton rancangan 30 Minit Bersama Ustaz Don. Ya, penceramah agama yang namanya semakin kerap meniti bibir rakyat sejagat, lebih-lebih kaum yang lahirnya dari rusuk kiri para lelaki.

Pertama kali aku mengetahui kewujudan Ustaz Don Danial ialah semasa aku meneroka sebaris ‘link’ yang membawa aku ke laman sesawang di mana sebuah video Ustaz Don telah disunting menjadi pendek, maka penantian tamatnya ‘loading’ video tersebut tidak terlalu lama.

Tipulah jika aku tidak jatuh hati pada paras rupanya yang tidak melampau untuk aku katakan hampir-hampir sempurna atau hampir-hampir seperti lelaki idaman seluruh wanita di muka bumi ini.

Oleh kemungkinan kejahilan diri ini, perkataan pertama yang meluncur dari bibir bukanlah “masya-Allah”, tetapi, “Handsome-nya!”

Menyedari video yang aku sedang tonton kala itu berunsurkan agama, aku cepat-cepat menegur dan mendidik diri sendiri untuk mengungkapkan kalimah “Masya-Allah” setiap kali rasa teruja melihat ketampanan ustaz Don yang dikurniakan-Nya.

Aku berpendapat bahawa insan seperti Ustaz Don-lah yang diperlukan remaja-remaja generasi ini untuk menarik mereka mendengar ceramah-ceramah agama. Kita semua sedia maklum, para remaja sekarang lebih cenderung menonton forum dan temu ramah dan segala macam rancangan hasil produksi Barat berbanding yang dihasilkan kaum tempatan.

Dan tidak terkecualilah diri ini nan satu.

4 signifikasi yang menarik tentang Ustaz Don Danial
1) Raut wajah yang menawan
Ustaz Don bukan sahaja tampan, malah manis ‘banget’ hinggakan sebaris senyumannya mampu meluruhkan jantung ramai wanita. Terutama Khaleeqa. Jadi manis dan tampan aku rangkumkan dala satu adjektif iaitu ‘menawan’.

Antara laki dan perempuan, yang mudah terjebak dalam kancah maksiat atau sebagainya yang tidak berfaedah ialah perempuan. Jadi, kehadiran Ustaz Don, aku percaya, mampu menarik minat kami, kaum perempuan untuk mendengar ceramahnya dan secara langsung menimba ilmu pengetahuan yang berunsurkan hari akhirat.

2) Loghat Pulau Pinang
Dalam banyak-banyak loghat, loghat Pulau Pinang yang dirasakan paling lembut lenggok dan bunyinya. Aku suka mendengar kawan-kawanku berbicara dengan loghat Pulau Pinang. Oleh sebab tu perempuan ramai jatuh hati dengan mamak barangkali.

Hehe.

Dan loghat Pulau Pinang ini boleh dikatakan universal sebab mudah untuk difahami memandangkan ia hampir sama dengan loghat orang Selangor.

3) Lawak
Lawak dan berseloroh adalah dua perkara yang berbeza. Lawak memang walau dia buat apa saja, walau apa yang dituturkan mampu mencetuskan tawa di bibir orang lain. Manakala berseloroh ni lebih kepada cakap lepas. Dan orang Malaysia memang suka benar dengan budaya cakap lepas ni. Mereka yang berseloroh selalu dilihat kelakar.

Bagi aku, lawak dan berseloroh ini yang membezakan Ustaz Don dan Ustaz Azhar. Kawan aku, Adzhim atau lebih dikenali sebagai Yop dalam kalangan kawan kami, mengatakan penyampaian Ustaz Azhar lebih dekat dengan hati dan perasaan pendengar.


_{:) Kalian dipersilakan untuk follow Adzhim a.k.a Yop (:}
Aku tiada komen tentang hal itu sebab lain orang lain minatnya dan pendapatnya, ya tak? Aku lebih gemarkan penyampaian yang agak formal. Aku lebih suka letak jurang yang jelas antara aku dan penceramah, antara aku dan pendidik. Aku sebagai insan yang jahil yang ingin menimba ilmu, dan pendidik yang berpengetahuan yang ingin menurunkan ilmu padaku.

Namun, aku tak nafikan kebagusan syarahan Ustaz Azhar!

4) Muda
Aku rasa tak perlu aku bezakan Ustaz Don dengan ustaz Azhar atau dengan mana-mana ustaz sekali pun. Mereka mempunyai karakter tersendiri yang menarik. Tetapi yang faktor umur yang muda, aku rasakan sebagai satu bonus untuk Ustaz Don.

Aku sebagai seorang yang muda lagi, aku memang dah berkali-ali dengar dan arif benar dengan sikap mereka dalam lingkunan umur aku. Generasi sekarang kurang atau memang hampir tidak hormatkan lagi orang tua.

Jadi, aku tak akan terkejut kalau-kalau ada remaja atau belia yang kata, “Alah! Orang tua memang begitu!” “Dah tua-tua barulah alim!” “Orang tua bukan boleh percaya sangat cakap dorang!” dan yang sewaktu dengannya.

Aku percaya, faktor umur Ustaz Don yang muda akan membuatkan beliau dekat dengan hati pendengar. Melihat Ustaz Don yang muda yang telah berada di landasan yang benar akan membuatkan para remaja zaman sekarang mengikut jejak beliau untuk mencari hidayah bagi menemui landasan yang benar di usia yang muda.

At least, that’s what I think.

Sekian, empat signifikasi yang aku percaya, membuatkan Ustaz Don Danial mudah diterima. Biarkan niat pertama untuk mendengar ceramah beliau kerana ingin melihat paras rupanya yang indah, asalkan sambil-sambil itu dapat kita menimba ilmu.

Setiap butir yang disampaikan Ustaz Don sebentar tadi meresap jauh ke dalam minda aku ini. Alhamdulillah. Semoga kekal di situ selamanya dan semoga aku dikurniakan hidayah untuk mengamalkannya dalam masa terdekat.

Amin.

Ps; Rancangan 30 Minit Bersama ustaz Danial adalah pada hari Isnin hingga Khamis jam 10 malam di TV Al-Hijrah.
