Promote Hafiz Skejap.

Hmmm, I’m so satisfied listening to Hafiz mini album. I love the Ku Akui song, by Ajai. It is a broken hearted song where the singer regretted for being so workaholic when he should be with his companion more often. The singer had forgotten his priority in life, where relationship is to be put 1st before others. Ku Akui also mentioned that he would change his arrogant attitude if the times permit and he’d change the whole thing upside down.

I think though the song doesn’t suits me anymore, since I am married, I should learnt from it too. Never to take for granted on what I have and owned. Appreciate people around you more and mix with my newly neighbors.

I took Monday day leave, tired after Miri trip. Jet Lag I guess hehehe. I realized that Akim’s song Bengang is also good. If Hafiz sing it, it could be better! (No offend please). Anyway, that’s my personal opinion. Last week I told my colleagues (all of them are Chinese) about the AF reunion concert. I know they never watched AF, yes AF1 to AF7!! They watched only Hong Kong or Taiwan superstars. Well, I never blame them…. Just a promotion on Hafiz’s behalf…

Me: Hey Hafiz is coming on 25 July 09
C1: Who?
C2: *** Looking at me blurrly****

Me: Hafiz the champ from Sarawak of AF7, he will be coming this weekend!
C1: Who again?
C2: Getting more Blurrer

Me: You know I went to KL twice to watch him singing last time…
C1: Oh, I remember that… that guy…..oh ijit?
C2: *** Getting nowhere***
Me: Never mind, as long I mentioned it to you. Come to Padang merdeka if you are free, ok.

Wah! .. Some people… I couldn’t believe I’ve been working with them for about 10 years already? Well, different people, different interests.
I hope if not them, their children will one day recognized and listen to the songs from my Idol, Hafiz. :)

Miri Trip Day 1

My Miri trip with wife was a short one. We flew to Miri on Saturday morning, when everyone was still in their bed, dreaming. We had our early morning breakfast at the BDC coffee shop. I was a bit sleepy because that night, I chatted in the blog until 2.00am. You can calculate how much sleep I had. Thank to my sister Doli for being so kind to send us to the airport, while we left our Kembara at her place.
We checked in immediately but so grossly, we had 2 separated seats. I think the online checked in made the best seats being taken and for the non frequent travelers like me, I still prefer the old traditional way where meeting people face to face are appropriate. But things could be otherwise if the person that you met did not serve you the way you should be served. Now days, some people do not know what is the meaning of customer’s right or customer is always right! It happen to me few months back when I was shopping for furniture and the sales man was so %^!!&* %.

Me: I want to buy that settee
SM: Sorry sir, it has been booked by another customer
Me: Don’t you have other stocks?
SM: No sir. This is the last stock.
Me: I don’t care, I want this one.
SM: No, you cannot have this. It was booked earlier?
Me: I want to talk to your manager.

….seconds later….

Manager: Can I assist you sir?
SM: Yes, I want to BUY that settee.
Manager: Sorry sir, that settee was booked earlier. We will call you within 2 days time if the booking is canceled.
Me: What? What the heck?? I have the money now and you don’t want to sell it to me? Where is my customers’ right?

I started to create situations until the senior manager came and dealt with it. Even the customers whom were there also agreed with me. Finally they agreed to sell the settee to me with discount some more. At least my melo drama and the “clean cursing” part were worth it.
We boarded into the plane around 6.30am. That morning flight was not full anyway. Hmmm, H1N1, that’s why people don’t want to fly, I guess.

But suddenly, I saw figures, wearing beautiful kebaya, I guess, but those figures were less interesting at all. I was so frustrated to be welcomed by them. Not to be an apartheid here, but did Air Asia took all the beautiful ladies in Malaysia to be their air stewardess? My goodness, I really pity MAS, again not to support biasness, majority of the air stewardess in my flight looked like Oprah Winfrey in her 80s. You go and figure it out. Try to imagine it yourselves, ok.

We arrived in Miri an hour later and my brother in-law picked us up there and sent us to the wedding ceremony in SIB Krokop. The wedding was about 2 hours. Around 12:00, my wife and I took off earlier and we checked in into the hotel around 12.30pm. Had lunch around 1:00PM, watch Harry Potter around 2:00PM and came back to the hotel for a short sleep before we attend the reception at the same hotel where we stayed in around 6.30pm until 10:00pm. Then we ZZZZZZZzzzzxxxxxxxxx….Tired!!!

Masih Jelas

Finally, the mini album is going to be launched today, after 2 weeks delay reasoned, the producer wanted it (the mini album) to be solid in quality, reliable of not to upset the fans and hot as Michael Jackson's 1st single! As one of the fanatic Hafiz fans (now my wife too), i don't even bother about those stuff infact i know, Hafiz is always a superb singer. That's why he won the AF7, right?

Below was the conversation that i had with my lil bro Hafiz previously....

Me: Adik, bila lah your album nak launch ni? Ni dah delay sekali dah. Kalau delay dua kali, fans sure buat demonstrasi di sarawak tu.. Entah2 declare darurat pulak...

Hafiz: 14 July, bang. Dia orang nak buat album ni as good as possible. Sabar eh bang Abet.
(Those people wants to make it as ..... be patience please, bro Abet)

Well, me being me would always never like to wait, especially when it is a good thing! From the latest informations, tough the launching is this afternoon, the mini album would only be available within a week time. That means i have to wait again. Oh, for Hafiz's sake, i'm cool as the north pole ices! I can wait, bacause it's woth it!

Underlayer Defects

It happened last night! I’m still a little bit shocked here. I was meeting my friend at his place in Sg. Apong, a small village occupied many races of people. It’s at the outer circuit of Kuching city, I guess.
So my discussion with my friend went well that I managed to leave the place around 11.00pm. I heard police car siren on and off. Yeah, I’m aware actually that the area is not a safe place especially at night. I didn’t want to think further, all that I want to do is just drive back home.
It was so dark outside, since his car porch has no supporting light. To my disbelief, the Kembara that I drove, which is also my wife’s car, was not complete. The front part or the engine sector has been cut off, taken away and only remaining the body or the seating area. Oh my Lord!!! It’s just like the kereta potong.
I wanted to shout for help and to make thing worst, I saw a man waiting outside the gate. He was smoking but I couldn’t really see his face. So with all the strength that I have, I shout out loud, ‘PENCURIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII’
My voice was not loud enough I guess, the aircond was too cold I reckoned and my throat was a bit dry which made me difficult to shout louder. As I looked around, I saw my wife on my right side, her eyes were opened wide. Confused and curious, she told me ‘Dear that was too loud’ What happen?’ She asked again. I turned to her and paused. Oh Thank God, it’s a dream.
I laugh and laugh in the bedroom while asking my wife to check her car at the car porch. The Kembara is there, one piece. It happened last night!
