Just recently, I watched a religious tv show featuring Ustaz Kazim. For a short while only. I have no isssue with him and his style.<br /><br />I was furious abt what he said. He sort of compared clean people praying and dirty people. When he said dirty he described a guy who did not take shower for weeks (which I took as a homeless), how his <i>ibadah</i> is sorta second class. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Granted, I simply shut down the TV and did not hear the rest of his talk. Maybe he did clarify his statement. However, for me, no one can really say if his ibadah is accepted or not. I am not saying one can or cannot pray while being unshowered or dirty.<i> Najis</i> is <i>najis</i>. More on one should not judge another person. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Like saying a Muslim without hijab does not pray. Or fast. Seriously, do not judge others. Simply based on their appearance.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once, when I was much younger, my good friend who did not wear hijab was chased away from a <i>masjid</i> when she wanted to pray there. I mean, of course one need a proper attire to enter a <i>masjid</i> but she wanted to pray. What should she do? Should she not pray at all?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This holier than thou attitude must go people.</div>

<br /></div>
<span style="color: rgb(204 , 0 , 0);">So i did write it and give it to him..</span><br />
<span style="color: rgb(204 , 0 , 0);">here goes</span><br />
<br />
<div align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: right;">
26 March 2006<o:p></o:p></div>
<div align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: right;">
1330<o:p></o:p></div>
<div align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: right;">
Nisah’s room<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Dear Nana,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I</span> think I already told you bout Hisyam. Remember? Well, here is a narrative about him. Why am I telling you this? I am not quite sure. But what I am certain of, as my bestfriend, I want you to know this guy like I know him.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
He used to be my tablemate. You know that right? Basically, you know him from all the stories I have told you before. Anyway, despite his nice and goodie-goodie look, he is quite POYO. I don’t know what word can describe him best. He is one of a kind.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Born in Petaling Jaya and once lived in Setiawangsa, the last time he watched movie in a cinema was so long ago until he watched with me A Shaggy Dog. Yes, no 18sx scene. hahaha. What a relief! I mean can you imagine a city boy who never enjoyed city life? I am a different case since I’m living in boarding school.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Well, you might say he got pure heart and yada yada. This guy enjoys punk, ska and I don’t know what kind of music. Surely not my type of music la since you know how I am crazy about Alanis n pink n A<st1:place st="on"><st1:country-region st="on">shanti</st1:country-region></st1:place>.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
What you should know bout dis male creature is, everyone thinks he is a nice, polite and innocent. All my classmates and my lecturers think so. Not that I’m saying I know him better than anyone else. It just that sitting beside him, make him open up his true colours which is full with kePOYOan. Hahaha. This guy is never mad at anything. So when he is not in the mood, I can easily sense it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: justify;">
Have I mention that he is the last from his siblings. And he is a lot lot lot lot younger than any of them. Making him very very very close with his parents especially his mother. Yeah, I know what you gonna say, “a mommy’s boys is a tough case”. But he didn’t show his mommy’s boy attitude much. For all I care!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
One thing I like about him is his brain. Man, that brain is created for grammar. If he ever read this letter and checking my grammar I know I’m gonna get lots of red pens. I am never good at grammar. Especially with tenses. For all I know, he might even laugh knowing I wrote bout him to you, my best friend. and he is always prepared for impromptu speaking and he is good at giving presentation.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Owh, I must tell you about his long tummy. Gosh, how I envy that tummy. He can eat what he likes as much as he likes and sleep all day and still be hungry without getting BUNCIT. I mean, he sleeps and he eats n he is not buncit and he got great brain. This is a remarkable discovery!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Once, I asked him, “are you a pre-mature baby?” he said no. he mentioned his best friend Dyau is one. And he asked why. And I told him. Remember kak Aizan or not? Yeah!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-indent: 0.5in;">What I like best is he writes songs. Even though I didn’t really understand the theme of the song, he wrote them. Nice enough. Score one! And he plays guitar. You know how I like boys with instrument. Score two!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-indent: 0.5in;">He is sorta a surau guy. What do I mean by sorta.. he goes to the surau, not frequent but a lot lot lot better than me. Well, the fact that both his roommates are very alim, has connection on this matter. And yes, he stopped wearing shorts and he wears kain pelikat instead. He is a ketua usrah n dakwah for the surau. I know you would go, “Dzeti, what had got into you? Usrah n dakwah is not in your dictionary!” Exactly! People say different attract. OPPPSSS!! What do I mean by different attract? Well, you know me better to judge me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-indent: 0.5in;">Neway, do write back! Reply is a must! Love you lots.</span></div>

Especially during the long holiday. It is quite clean. It has nice view. Spacious. Variety of food. (Why am I complaining again?)</span></div>

So so so blood thirsty expensive. A cup of hot coffee from the machine is RM6 ++. My favourite waffle? RM4.50. </span></div>

<br />
<br />
Just TV series that I am into nowadays.<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">How To Get Away With Murder -Suspense. Dramatic. Out of the mind. Hot. Hot guys. Steaming.Very recommended. 4/5 stars.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">GOT - Do? I? Need? To? Elaborate? 5/5 stars. But I do feel this new season is quite fast. I mean one second they are in Winterfell another blink they are already in Dragonkeep. Though, have I mentioned DRAGONS?</li>
<li>Riverdale - Team Jughead. Enuf said. 4.5/5 stars.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Narcos - I just started watching it. 4 episodes so far. For me, it is just series I watched to kill time. I'm not into stories with subtitles. Or drugs. Unrelatable to me. Like Breaking Bad (HR is gonna kill me if I admit that story sucks!)</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">OITNB - Too many women. Too much drama. Not my thing. I did watch the whole first season. 2/5 stars.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Suits - Haven't start this season yet.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Modern Family - Happiness. Pure jolly good time for me.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">TBBT - Raj Kootrapalli FTW!!!!!!!</li>
</ul>

I was always fortunate enough to have foreigners as my next door neighbour. No, that the blue eyes kinds. I wish~ *roll eyes*</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's the people you usually see building your houses, making your teas and guarding your malls. Yup, the immigrant workers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I ain't complaining. I am the type of neighbour who mind my own business. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, my neighbours are also my students. And their family of course. I have no problem with that too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Though, they are some (read: A LOT) of these students look down upon them. Saying negative things about them. Some petty things.</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">
"Diorang tu busuk, teacher."</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Teacher tak dengar ke diorang menumbuk sambal?"</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
" Diorang tu banyak bulu..."</blockquote>
<br />
Honestly, I don't make up their comments. They do say stuff like that.<br />
<br />
I'm not saying that is not true. But look at the bigger pictures, kids!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These neighbours of mine, always, always go to the mosque for prayers. With their favourite white clothing that looks like ladies clothing (It looks so comfy that I wanna buy one or three for HR). They would always contact their family or loved ones (When is the last time you call your parents?). They work damn hard to support their family faraway (What did you spent your money on?).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They are maybe some bad batch of these workers. But don't let one bad apple rot the rest.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Just like we don't like ISIS judge the whole Muslim community.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
p/s: This advice apply to me too.</div>

<br />
He was talking about the benefits and the deeds.<br />
<br />
He mentioned something that made me had a "duh" moment.<br />
<br />
He said some of the ibadah that women can do is cook and pack nasi goreng and send to Balai Bomba or Balai Polis or wherever. This is called ibadah too and sedekah somemore.<br />
<br />
All this while when people mentioned Lailatul Qadar, it is often associated with pray or read the Quran. Im not saying it is wrong but it totally opens my eyes. <br />
<br />
So off I go to tuition with the intention to ibadah. (I used to think that tuition session disrupt my ibadah but none the wiser). I continued baking cookies with the intend to feed people.<br />
<br />
Maybe it is not the same but I feel happier though. Who knows.<br />
<br />
Who can really say my Terawih prayers are better than teaching ten eager kids?<br />
<br />
All is in the intention. I think.<br />

With the parents in the car, we heard a thud and more thuds as the car continued to move.<br />
<br />
We stopped.<br />
<br />
HR confirmed it was a flat tyre and we changed course to a nearby tyre shop. It was nearby because we were in the city. On our way to drop HR's dad to the Klinik Kesihatan.<br />
<br />
All I could think of was the cost. The money. Cash. Blingbling. Moolah.<br />
<br />
Especially with Eid celebration around the corner.<br />
<br />
Stress could not best describe me at that time. I was beyond that.<br />
<br />
Came an old Chinese uncle. "Banyak untung maa!" He said to me as he looked at the condition of the tyre.<br />
<br />
I gave him a tight smile.<br />
<br />
And I reflected.<br />
<br />
Gosh. I was lucky.<br />
<br />
The tyre was bad. Both back tyres were actually. Even the edges and wires came out.<br />
<br />
Licin. Botak. Haus.<br />
<br />
We were fortunate. We were driving quite peacefully. Slowly. Not on the highway. Near a tyre shop. No accidents. No lives lost.<br />
<br />
We were blessed surely.alfinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17840484578117975909noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681669726644923086.post-81228060947392437632016-08-14T19:30:00.000+08:002016-08-14T19:30:11.166+08:0090s rock glam<div style="text-align: justify;">
I thought to myself I need to change the layout, the font and the picture of myself for this blog. Especially the picture. Too youthful, too 10 years ago.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It need to be more adult looking, more mature and sophisticated. Not that I'm expecting any readers. It is just to match the age now. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then again, re-reading the previous post, Gilmore Girls. I am so stuck in the 90s.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And I am Okay with that. I like 90s. </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I wanna say re-watching because it seemed cooler. Way way cooler but honestly it is my first time. It is only only because HR persuaded me (read: forced). He was ballistic when he found out I haven't watch the series yet. His favourite series when he was younger. Not all he talks about is Littlefinger and the Starks.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyhow, I'm hooked. But only because of Jess, but he is no longer around after the first few seasons. I'm definitely rooting for him and waiting for him. </div>

I went the extra mile with my scarf this year. I wore shawl, people. I hated shawls. Instant one. Wide one. But, I challenged myself this time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

Anyway, the <i>telekungs</i> there were super nice, comfy and colourful. I wanted to take a selfie as a proof but there were other people and I thought I would looked extra vain. But I did search high and low for the brand of the <i>telekung</i> in case I could find it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I did not found any. I looked around Aeon too just to be sure if the <i>telekungs</i> were sold there, <i>Nonhado. </i>Because of the search <i>(window-shopping, mind you) </i>I was too tired and I thought I still had a long journey ahead, so I didn't watch Ant-man yet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Maybe tomorrow, if Arif agreed to treat me. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
TGV Aeon AU2 is now operating. Yayyers!!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
p/s: My life revolves a lot around Aeon. </div>

Me and HR had this tendency to ask the other person questions we know the answer too. Rhetorical you might say. But, that's is just how we roll. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"<i>Sapa yang tak gantung kunci kereta ni?</i>"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Who left the lights on?"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Who forgot to throw the rubbish again?"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Whose <i>cekak</i> is this?"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We know it is just us two in the house. If it is not me than him. But we like to ask and annoy the other person anyway.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Can I wish that I have a baby so that I can say, "It's the baby!"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

She is not single.I have this one close friend in school. We hang out sometimes.<br />
<br />
So this one time, we went out, shopping. School stuff of course.<br />
<br />
We talked. We gossiped. We shopped, of course.<br />
<br />
For more than 2 hours.<br />
<br />
Suddenly I saw myself in the mirror.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I looked like hell. Like a person who just woke up and went shopping. With the<i> senget tudung</i> and what not.</div>
<br />
I asked her.<br />
Why? Why? Why didn't you tell me?<br />
<br />
She simply said, "Oh, aku ingatkan itu memang style ko!"<br />
<br />
Ouch!<br />
<br />
You know she is more than a colleague when she said that. And when she just laugh along when I said, "Siot ko, Tasha!!"<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
