Penangan Si Tikus

Saksikanlah tutup balang yang dah berlubang tu. Didalam balang inilah pernah tersimpan kerepek pisang yang amat lazat. Nampaknya rezeki saya tak habis sebalang. Datanglah si cik siti dengan jayanya menebuk lubang dan membantu saya menghabiskan saki baki kerepek pisang dalam balang ini. Tak cukup dengan itu, kalau diperhatikan betul2 gambar ini, boleh kita nampak tompok-tompok hitam yang merupakan peninggalan isi perut tikus berkenaan yang dengan bongkaknya dipamerkan untuk tontonan saya.

Nampak gaya cik siti telah mula bermaharajalela. Syarikat 'pest control' tak datang service lagi bulan ni, dapat la korang joli... siap la nanti bila 'pest control' datang. Dengan murah hati la diorang tinggalkan makanan lazat untuk cik siti. Lepas makan.... hmmmmm... jalan terus.....

Joran

Ini dia reel DAM model HPN 630FD. Ni sebenarnya reel terbaru yang saya beli dan banyak digunakan untuk casting. Reel ni kecik jer sebab cita cita saya pun bukanlah nak tamak sangat tangkap ikan besar sangat pun. Saja suka suka nak casting time mancing. Joran yang saya guna untuk reel ini adalah ABU GARCIA ULTRA CAST II yang sepanjang enam kaki dan memang direka khas untuk casting. Bagi yang tak tahu dalam bahasa melayu casting tu dipanggil 'gewang'.

Ini pula reel veteran yang banyak berjasa kepada saya. Keluaran BANAX model SX3000. Reel ni banyak berjasa kepada saya di mana banyak rekod peribadi telah tercipta bersama reel ini. Antaranya ialah kejayaan menaikkan 7 ekor kerapu dalam masa 3 jam di Muara Sungai Kuala Ibai berhampiran Masjid Terapung Kuala Terengganu pada 2006(Malam tu syok makan ikan bakar..hahaha). Dengan reel ini jugalah saya berjaya menaikkan Toman pertama saya walaupun anak toman yang hanya berat beberapa ratus gram sahaja tapi gembira la juga bila pertama kali naikkan toman tasik kenyir. Banyak juga rezeki dengan reel ni termasuk berjaya menaikkan baung akar(Baung kuning) sebanyak beberapa ekor dalam sepetang yang menghasilkan pesta Baung masak Tempoyak pada keesokan harinya.

Reel ini diletak pada joran ABU GARCIA TOURNAMENT yang juga panjang enam kaki dan banyak saya gunakan setiap kali pergi memancing.

Inilah gambar dua senjata saya. Dulu ada banyak lagi Joran tapi banyak dah disedekah secara paksarela oleh kawan kawan, tapi yang dua ni kalau nak ambik, langkah mayat saya dulu la.... hahaha.

Tak lama lagi nak meninggalkan Kenyir untuk berhijrah ke tempat baru. Maka joran joran ini akan beraksi di medan perjuangan lain pula selepas ini. Niat di hati nak tambah satu lagi Joran dari Jenama UGLY STICK lepas ni kalau ada rezeki.....

Minum Petang 21 Julai 2009

Minum petang hari ini yang penuh dengan kenikmatan ... haha

marble cheese cake dengan kopi strawberry

Teh Tarik Strawberry

Inilah Teh Tarik Strawberry yang menjadi kegilaan saya sekarang. Stok mesti sentiasa ada, kalau tak mesti susah hati... hehehehe....

Masalahnya satu je... hanya satu kedai kat Cameron je yang jual teh ini, kedai 88 yang berada di antara Blue Valley dengan Simpang Pulai. Jadi kalau nak cari stok, terpaksalah ke Cameron, jadi bila ada kat sana, terpaksalah beli stok berkotak kotak sebab takkan nak berulang ke Cameron tiap2 bulan.... hehe

Durian Kampung Basung

Dapat Durian ni percuma pemberian dari sorang staff kat resort. Sebenarnya dapat tiga bijik tapi passing2 kat orang lain yang dua bijik lagi takut 'Blood Sugar' me'roket' naik kalau saya bedal tiga bijik durian sekaligus, kalu diikutkan sejarah lepas setakat tiga bijik tu sambil dok lepak2 pejam sebelah mata pon boleh 'langsai' sekejap je.

Tahun ni musim durian betul2 menjadi kat area kenyir ni. Di sepanjang perjalanan menuju ke tasik kenyirni merata rata boleh jumpa bangsal menjual durian di tepi jalan. Kalau ikutkan hawa nafsu, memang dah 'check-in' dalam hospital lagi sekali saya tahun ni. Tulah sebab control ayu jer bila nengok durian. Pandang sebelah mata je walaupun airlio tak berenti meleleh.....

You Are Not Alone

"You Are Not Alone"

Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be
You're not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

But you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But you are not alone

'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'
And girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be there

You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone...

Makan Malam 1 Julai 2009

Hidangan cuci mulut... pulut mangga yang sememangnya bagus untuk diabetes yang dihidapi oleh saya. Kalau Doktor saya tenguk pasti meletup. Pulut yang memang dia tak bagi makan. Atas pulut tu pulak diorang tabur gula.. waduhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Pastu pulak santan yang memang mempunyai kandungan kolesterol yang tinggi. Bagus untuk makhluk yang menghadapi masalah kadar kolesterol yang tinggi dalam darah macam saya ni....hahahahahaha

Hidangan utama malam ni pulak.... Nasi kerabu dengan ayam bakar. Banyak pulak nasi dia letak. Satu lagi hidangan yang gerenti akan menyebabkan doktor saya meletup......hhmmmmm

Telefon Bimbit dan Seks

Terpanggil rasanya untuk membicarakan sesuatu yang berbeza hari ini...... kaitan antara teknologi moden terkini dan naluri manusia yang wujud sejak manusia pertama lagi. Kebelakangan ini banyak tersebar pelbagai video klip rakaman aksi aksi panas pemuda pemudi kita melalui telefon bimbit. Memang lumrah manusia dikuasai nafsu untuk melakukan aksi panas sedemikian, namun apa yang mendorong mereka untuk merakamkan aksi berkenaan menggunakan telefon bimbit mereka. Apakah sebabnya juga aksi aksi berkenaan diedarkan kepada seluruh pelusuk alam maya melalui penggunaan internet?.

Banyak klip rakaman video menggunakan telefon bimbit membabitkan pelajar sekolah, Pelajar IPT mahupun muda mudi telah tersebar. Yang menyedihkan lagi, pelajar sekolah siap berpakaian seragam tanpa segan silu beraksi seolah profesional di hadapan kamera.

Tidak kurang juga pembabitan gadis melayu siap bertudung. Malah

ada yang bertudung labuh pun terlibat.

Apa yang mendorong mereka untuk menjadi sebegitu berani. Tidakkah mereka takut akan

terbongkar kegiatan 'panas' mereka dan mereka akan menghadapi masalah?.Tidakkah mereka takut akan dikenakan tindakan yang akan menjejaskan masa depan mereka kelak.

Inilah sebenarnya harga kemajuan yang kita kecapi pada masa

kini. Dalam usaha mengejar status sebagai sebuah negara maju, maka batas tatasusila telah sewenangnya dilanggar. Sudah hilang norma masyarakat timur

dan kita telah menjadi lebih kebaratan berbanding masyarakat barat.

Mungkin satu hari nanti, pelbagai aksi lagi dasyat yang akan terdedah.

David Carradine Death Photos as Published By a Thai Newspaper

This image was obtained from a blog in wordpress and showed the image of a man hanging from a wardrobe. However the face is not shown and we are not sure whether it was actually david carradine or somebody else. And the body is not exactly like belonging to a 72 year old guy and the hair is black. either it was dyed or the picture belongs to somebody else. For sure it cannot be confirmed whose photo it is. But the Thai newspaper published it and claimed it belongs to David Carradine, of course they would not be so bold if it otherwise.

However one issue to ponder here is that whether they had permission or not to publish this photo in the first place. i mean, this could be quite sensitive in certain parts of the world and could be a source of legal difficulties.

Judge for yourself if this photo is true or not.

My Books

War and Peace ~ Leo Tolstoy

The Carpetbaggers ~ Harold Robbins

The two books that i'm currently reading. Actually i alternate between these two books depending on my mood. If i'm tired and just want some light reading i'll go for the Harold Robbins book but if i'm in for some serious reading i'll opt for the classic Leo Tolstoy book.

The carpetbaggers was the first novel in english that i actually read when i was twelve years old and it gave me the interestin reading till now.  Found the book which belongs to my brother in the book cabinet at home at that time and was taken by reading ever since. The old copy is lost somewhere now and i bought this one last week. It's like revisiting  a familiar place and seeing your old friends whenever you are reading a boom that you once read and the character of Jonas Cord which was actually based on the real live Howard Hughes still clearly exist in my mind.

Wanita Merokok

Semalam sedang asyik menikmati kopi di sebelah pagi dan bersembang dengan seorang rakan, timbul satu isu yang menarik dibincangkan. Pandangan masyarakat terhadap wanita yang merokok.  Teman berbual saya adalah seorang wanita dan beliau adalah juga seorang perokok yang menghabiskan satu bungkus rokok sehari. Dalam perbualan kami timbul isu berkaitan dengan pandangan masyarakat terhadap perokok wanita. Bagi beliau, tiada sebarang masalah kerana beliau dengan selamba menghisap rokok dikhalayak ramai dan tidak teragak agak untuk lepak di kedai mamak dengan rakan sekerja dan menghembus asap rokok.

*Gambar ini hanya ilustrasi dan bukan teman yang dinyatakan dalam artikel ini

Perbualan kami mula rancak berkaitan dengan seorang teman yang merupakan seorang wanita yang juga ibu kepada dua anak yang merokok secara sembunyi sembunyi kerana takut akan tanggapan negatif masyarakat terhadap beliau. Namun pada masa yang sama teman berkenaan tanpa segan silu akan meminta sebatang rokok dari kawan kawan lelaki bila dia keputusan stok. Adakah dia seorang yang hipokrit kerana satu kampung sudah heboh dan mengetahui bahawa dia adalah seorang perokok dan buat tak peduli sahaja. Namun dia masih berlakon seolah masih mahu menyembunyikan tabiat merokok beliau daripada pandangan masyarakat.

Persoalan sekarang adalah... adakah salah bagi seorang wanita untuk merokok dikhalayak ramai terutama sekali wanita timur? Mungkin ada yang berpendapat amat kurang menyenangkan sekali melihat seorang wanita merokok. Tapi mungkin ada yang tak kisah dan bagi merokok itu adalah hak masing masing. Bergantung kepada anda semua untuk meyuarakan pendapat masing masing.

Biawak

Met this juvenile crawler yesterday while doing my rounds. It just froze there when it realises that I was heading towards the tree. So.. what else, just took the opportunity to snap this guy. Many could be found around this area and you wouldn't believe the size of some. Personally saw one which could be the size of a small crocodile earlier this month. The one in this picture is considered a small one in terms of size as compared to some of the one i saw.

Not exactly a romantic topic to post here. Haha. But just want to share nature's small wonders with you guys. I mean definitely us humans don't have the ability to climb trees the way these monitor lizards do. And certainly these guys can climb damn fast. Should see the way it just ran straight up when it saw me approaching near the tree. I mean one second it was there and the next second gone juat like that. Reminds me of a few girls that i used to approach... ahaks.. 

Mother

In Loving Memory

Last thursday was the first annivesary of the early demise of my late brother. He passed away one year ago at the still early age of 45. The above picture was taken in 1977 when he was  a young lad of fourteen. I happened to have this in my possesion together with some old photos of myself and my mum and sis which was used in a border pass when we were visiting some relatives in southern Thailand. Found it safely kept by my father when I was going through some things after my father passed away.

Sometimes you just wished you could have more time with the people you love but in today's world you are always busy pursuing worldly desires and forget about appreciating your time with family and friends.... and when they are gone, you would always feel the empty space somewhere deep in your heart and a certain longing for them.. 

To Nik Mohd Yusoff Bin Nik Salleh.. AL-FATIHAH..Peace be upon you my brother

Pentas Wayang Dunia

Dalam meniti kehidupan seharian, kadang kadang terfikir jua yang banyak berlaku pementasan wayang bangsawan secara "langsung" yang banyak dipersembahkan di hadapan mata kita. Ini terutama sekali dapat kita jumpa di pejabat di mana banyak kaki kipas yang dapat menjiwai watak sebagai pelakon utama dengan jayanya sekali.

Dan semestinya ini bukan pementasan main main bagi pelakon pelakon ini. Mereka dengan serius sekali membawa peranan masing masing demi untuk memastikan anugerah pelakon terbaik jatuh ke tangan mereka tahun ini. Dan yang anehnya, beberapa pelakon leleaki dan wanita sedang berebut rebut dalam mempamerkan diri mereka sebagai pelakon yang paling bagus. sedangkan mereka ini juga adalah kawan baik diantara mereka dan merupakan satu 'clique'. dalam masa yang sama mereka bersaing dengan amat hebat sekali. namun peementasan yang dianggap serius bagi mereka pula adalah merupakan sandiwara lawak jenaka yang tak mengeringkan gusi kepada penonton yang sentiasa mengikuti perkembangan drama swasta ini. dan tak kurang juga banyak senyuman sinis terlempar ke arah pelakon berkenaan yang nampaknya kurang menegerti sindirin sindiran serta kiasan yang agak menusuk kalbu yang terlempar ke arah mereka sekian hari. Pelakon ini semua masih lagi asyik di alam khayalan mereka yang amat meriah bagi diri mereka sendiri dan penuh dengan haruman kasturi hipokrasi. 

Bak kata hikayat melayu... biarlah luncai terjun dengan labu labunya... biarkan mereka meneruskan lakonan bangsawan mereka yang semestinyasatu hari nanti bakal memakan diri sendiri.... begitulah kalau anak kecil main api... nanti terbakar dirinya sendiri......

A collection of romantic shakespeare love quotes.

A collection of romantic shakespeare love quotes.

Now join your hands, and with your hands your hearts. 

They do not love that do not show their love.

The course of true love never did run smooth.

Love is a familiar. Love is a devil. There is no evil angel but Love. 

For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings,

That then I scorn to change my state with kings. 

I'll follow you and make a heaven out of hell, and I'll die by your hand which I love so well. 

In thy face I see honor, truth and loyalty. 

Now join your hands, and with your hands your hearts. 

Love goes toward love. 

...Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or Bends with the remover to remove.

O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark,

That looks on tempests and is never shaken.

It is the star to every wandering bark,

whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. 

Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better. 

Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs,

Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes,

Being vexed, a sea nourished with lovers' tears.

What is it else? A madness most discreet,

A choking gall and a preserving sweet. 

Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds. 

They do not love that do not show their love. 

The courses of true love never did run smooth. 

A woman would run through fire and water for such a kind heart. 

It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves. 

Love is a spirit of all compact of fire. 

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind;

And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind. 

My bounty is as deep as the sea,

My love as deep; the more I give to thee,

The more I have, for both are infinite. 

My heart is ever at your service. 

So they lov'd as love in twain

Had the essence but in one;

Two distinct, divisions none... 

One half of me is yours, the other half yours-

Mine own, I would say; but if mine, then yours,

And so all yours! 

Love comforteth like sunshine after rain. 

Now join your hands, and with your hands your hearts. 

Such is my love, to thee I so belong,

That for thy right myself will bear all wrong. 

When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew. 

I'll say she looks as clear as morning roses newly washed with dew. 

Journey's end in lovers meeting. 

If music be the food of love, play on 

No sooner met but they looked;

No sooner looked but they loved;

No sooner loved but they sighed;

No sooner signed but they asked one another the reason;

No sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy;

And in these degrees have they made a pair of stairs to marriage... 

Doubt thou the stars are fire,

Doubt the sun doth move,

Doubt truth to be a liar

but never doubt thy love. 

Yuna - Dan Sebenarnya

The 'Puteri Lilin' Gang

Had dinner in Pantai Kelulut last few days with the Puteri Lilin gang. Was actually dragged by them and without much protest i volunteered to be the official 'Bapak Ayam' that nite as there was 4 of the ladies and myself was the only guy during that outing. It's quite a scene also as after the food arrived they were quite busy posing with the food and everybody was looking at our table. Also there were quite some envious stares from other guys at me as the 4 ladies walked behind me all the way to the table. I was tempted to say all 4 of them were my wives and wouldn't that be a nasty suprise to all the guys staring at us...hahaha

All in all, it was a satisfying dinner as we managed to knock off one kilo of kerang bakar, one pari bakar, one siakap steam, one ' ayam laut' bakar berempah and also sotong celup tepung. you never guess looking at their petite sizes (except for only one chubby sized, but pls don't tell her that i called her chubby... mampos aku kena pukul dgn dia) that these girls really can wallop.

Scenes of Kenyir

Three angles of the Kenyir Lake taken from the Spa's window depicting the beauty and scenery of the biggest man made lake in south east asia. Took this photo on 28th February 2008 but only got the chance to upload these today.  For those who have yet to visit Kenyir, visit it one day. you won't regret it for the beauty of God's creation is evident in this place.

Latest Pic

This was taken just now at Le Meridian's Lobby Lounge whilst myself was sitting here enjoying the free internet and updating the blog. But have to pay for the T-Shirt recently purchased in Cameron Highlands at the Boh Plantation souvenior shop...

Cameron Highlands

 Went for a relaxing few days in Cameron and above is the proof..hehehe.. unfortunately this is the only photo of myself in Cameron... i really missed this Cameron.. my fav domestic vacation place. having been born and bred byt the seaside, i tend to runaway from the vacationing by the beach. preferred hte highlands nowadays. of coz the jungle is out of the question also as now has been working in the jungle for 2 1/2 years and quite used to the jungle environment. need something relaxing and cooling and where else but cameron is the best spot. first went there in 1994 and till now, i cannot recall allready how many times i have been there. but always it's either Rosa Pasadena Hotel or Strawberry Park Resort. Have been eyeing the Cameron Highlands Resort runned by YTL Hotels but that property is a little over the budget for me now. Maybe next time though. Another property of YTL of which i liked is the Tanjong Jara Resort, went there for one night a few weeks ago but i forgot to take photo's, but let me tell you one thing. it's worth every cent that you paid for. the room is fantastic, and kudos also to the Housekeeper, He/she managed to have the room spotless and to think of the challenge of being a seaside resort. Mind you, it's very seldom for me to praise resort/hotel housekeepers as being in the Rooms division myself, i tend to be more critical of Housekeeping and always try to find any weaknessses.

The other photos above are of the scenery from the Boh Plantation and also flora and fauna found in Cameron. It seems that those few days is not enough for me. Maybe sometime soon, i'll be making another visit.

Moth version 2

Guest what? The moth is still inside my office!. I had three table lamps taken out from a suite and put them in my office for temporary storage. Tonight i noticed my old friend Mr. Moth hanging around at one of the lampshades........
