Cuci The Muzikal

Olla guys!! I'm baacckkkk!!! Phew.. it has been like ages since i last updated this blog.. it's been almost 2 months.. the last entry was masa bulan pose.. and fyi, right after raya, aku dilanda kebizian yg amat sgt.. prbbly the busiest i hv been as a student plus working at the same time.. there's this programme that i'm coordinating which is a pioneer project which took a lot of my time.. pastu ada exam pulak with all the questions to prepare, nk vetting some more.. then i had to meet the deadline to submit my thesis.. pastu ada UniKL convocation pulak.. then after that thesis submission, ada one week trip pulak ke Langkawi (which i will blog about that later).. balik from Lngkwi, nak kena submit the corrected version which i had to go back & forth to my supervisor.. but now, Alhamdulillah everything turned out fine & now I'm MERDEKA!! This thing i'm most happy about is finally I'm done with my masters which took me like forever.. huhu.. Anyway guys, a day after i came back from Langkawi, my friend Imtiaz brought me to Cuci The Muzikal.. w'pun penat br balik dr Lngkwi, aku gagahkan diri jgk pegi coz i know, anything with Afdlin in it usually doesn't dissappoint.. and yes, it was spectacular!!

It was an awesome production.. The ensemble was amazing.. it's like the dialogues tu mcm wasn't scripted.. mcm everything that came out of their mouths tu is like spontaneous aje.. very natural.. the jokes sgt menjadik.. the music was quite good too.. except for i think two mushy2 songs which were quite boring.. one involving Vanida & her dad.. and the other one involving Vanida and Hans.. i can bear the Vanida-Hans scene+song, but the scene where V sang with her dad tu mcm kena cut aje if ada rerun.. the scene was really irrelevant.. kalau xde pun x mencacatkan jalan cite..

Overall, production ni sgt menghiburkan.. with minimul props, the casts brought the story to life.. tak payah nak set yg enormous bagai.. cukup dgn acting, dancing & jokes yg menjadi.. masa 2 jam lebih in IB tak terasa sgt pun.. coz we really enjoyed the show.. sape2 yg terlepas tu mmng rugi.. pray for a rerun ye guys.. coz it's really an awesome production.. peace out!

Tiba Di Kampung Halaman!! =)

Alhamdulillah, smlm slmt smpai Penang around 1pm. We departed from Puchong at 7 am, then singgah sejam kt rumah sedara kt rawang. which means we spent 5 hours on the road. Ok la, xde la lama sgt. Jam pun only at certain areas.

Hari ni tolong mak buat ketupat pulut atau nama lain dia ketupat daun palas.

Malam kang last bukak pose my mum msk gado2 & bubur lambuk. Esok after solat raya, our family lepak rumah tnggu sedara mara dtg mkn tgh hr. Sebelum2 ni masa arwah nenek ada lg, biasanya pagi raya pertama kitorg akan ke Teluk Kumbar gather kat sana. But since arwah nenek meninggal last yr, arwah datuk mmng dah lama xde, so our house la jadik tmpt berkumpul. After selesai gath kat sini, we'll be heading to Alor Setar plak kg belah mak.

Anyways, just nak share gambar bukak pose last kat KL. Ni kat Restoran Nasi Padang Sari Ratu kat Bkt Bintang. RM49/pax buffet style.

Avocado Juice

Kwn aku sorg ni mmng x lalu minum avocado juice nih.

And this one at Chilli's.

Okeh. That's All.

Selamat Hari Raya & Maaf Zahir batin y'all!!

Esok raya, yahooooooooo!!!

Charity Drive ~ 15-17 Sept 09

For the past 3 days, we did a charity drive around KL. charity drive ni was inspired by Oprah's Big Give. kitorg berhempas pulas carik donation, then beli barang2 keperluan, pastu gi pusat zakat mintak address mereka2 yg betul2 fakir miskin, pastu dlm 3 hari ni kitorg round KL smpaikan sumbangan.

Ni antara brng2 yg berjaya dikumpul.

Ni rumah pertama yg kami pegi.. pakcik tu ada sakit TB.. so wife dia aje yg keje. diorg ddk rumah flat kecik aje.. tingkat 4 pulak tu. sewa rumah 380, dpt bantuan dlm 350 aje.. kena tnggung 2 anak lg tgh bljr kat kolej & U.. another 3 kecik2 lagi.

Berhempas pulas aku mengangkut beras & sabun basuh naik tingkat 4!

Ni rumah ke2 kitorg singgah. Akak ni ibu tunggal. Dah bercerai 7 tahun, and sejak tu bekas suami dia x penah jenguk, apa lagi nak bagi nafkhah.

Haa.. ni rumah paling mencabar. Dkt area Gombak.. rumah dia paling tinggi kat situ.. atas bukit yg sgt tinggi gile.. Bayangkan aku terpaksa angkut 2 kampit beras, 10kg each naik smpai atas!

One of the unfortunate kids.

Keluarga ni xde kemampuan nk hntr nenek ni ke hospital.

Dlm bandar KL nih, pecaya tak ada lagi family yg ddk dlm rumah yg mcm ni. Nak carik alamat pun sikit pny susah.

Alhamdulillah, anak2 dia semua bijak2 belaka.

Satu lg rumah yg sgt dhaif.

Overall, ini mmng satu pengalaman yg sgt menginsafkan. Tak sangka dlm KL ni masih ada mereka yg sgt2 susah. We shed a few tears along the way. It's a very humbling experience.. Hopefully next2 year dpt buat lg, insyaAllah. w'pun sumbangan x bnyk mcm Oprah's Big Give tu, at least harapnya dpt la ceriakan sikit hidup diorg nak sambut raya nih insyaAllah.

Anyways, esok pagi lepas Sahur aku gerak balik Penang.
Selamat Hari Raya & Maaf Zahir Batin semua!
