Suasana Hari Raya

I balik kampung on 12/10/07. Actually kerja lagi on that day, firm bagi ½ day off for muslim staff…heh..heh..heh. 1pm sharp I balik…tak tunggu dah. When I reach home, my parents dah siap!! All pack!! As for me…tak siap apa lagi pun…baju pun tak simpan dlm beg lagi…aduuiihhhh. Tp, last nite dah pilih dah baju-baju apa nak bawa…dah put aside pun, just tak simpan dlm beg lagi. Well, tak buang masa dah, terus kemas beg. Kami bertolak sharp pukul 3pm. Dah tu nak dijadikan cerita, I almost masuk toll Sg Buloh, kena patah balik…sebab, baru teringat roadtax tertinggal. Ya Allah…masa tu tuhan ajela yg tahu, nasib baru area KL, buatnya dah sampai Ipoh…tak ke naya. Patahla balik rumah amik roadtax. Roadtax expired on 13/10 plak tu, dengan nak rayanya…dengan nak balik kampongnya, dengan travelling expensesnya…..Mr RM memang sungguh kurang mengizinkan untuk I berhari raya berlebih-lebihan tahun ni.

Sepanjang perjalanan ke Alor Star, the traffic is very bad and heavy rain along the way. Took us 8 hours to reach Alor Star. Kami bebuka puasa kat R&R Bukit Gantang. Sebelum tu berhenti rehat kat Sg Perak, ingat nak buka puasala kat situ, tapi ramai sungguhla manusia, dengan hujannya..tak selesala plak. I suggest kat Papa, apa kata kita stop kat next R&R, maybe kat sana tak ramai orang, so he agree. Tu yg stop kat Bukit Gantang tu. Ada gakla yang behenti kat situ, tapi not as bad as Sg Perak. Bebuka makan nasi goreng beli tadi kat Menjalara. Nak turun pi restaurant kat R&R tu hujan plak..malasla…tu yang siapkan bekal senang sket. Then continue the journey. Memang penat drive masa hujan ni..sbb dengan tak nampak jalan, dgn nak concentrate on the heavy traffic, dengan ada kereta yang tiba2 buat emergency break ..adduihh…memang penatla.

Pagi hari raya semua pegi ziarah kubur arwah tok. Left me, my mum, k.hus and bibik. Memang dah menjadi routine every year kami akan kemas rumah final touch, hidang makanan, nasi impit, laksa, ketupat daun palas, rendang, kek lapis from Sarawak…mcm2la..penuh meja dibuatnya. Lepas solat raya, sesi makan dan bergambar macam tahun-tahun lepas.

Lepas makan, at about 11am we went to Istana Anak Bukit nak berhari raya dgn Tuanku Sultan Kedah. Info from my cousin (Sh. Rehana), she said Istana is on renovation so the event took place at Wisma Darul Aman. Royal families a.k.a kaum kerabat Sultan boleh berjumpa dengan Sultan pukul 11am. My parents tak pergi, only me, auntie, syamil, naim and nazwal family yg pegi. Sampai sana dah ramai dah families kat dewan. Kena beratur sebelum berjumpa dengan Tuanku. Sama macam tahun2 lepas jugak. Tapi, kami makan dulu, takla banyak sangat foodnya…tapi bolehla alas perut..sambil-sambil tu jumpa dengan sedara mara tanya khabar. Bila dah sampai tu, lepas salam dgn Tuanku/Permaisuri I dpt duit raya. Not only me, the whole family dapat duit raya. He..he..he…jadikla dari tak ada langsung.

Lepas balik dari Istana, dah ada tetamu datang rumah. Tok Mak Pah’s family, 3 kereta depa datang…termasuk anak cucu cicitnya. Kelam kabut masing-masing, tapi nak kena siapkan air aje, yang lain semua dah ada atas meja. Then, Syed Zainal Abidin’s family, 2 kereta. Then, Syed Hashim’s family pun 2 kereta jugak. Malamnya ada BBQ kat rumah Tok Mak Pah’s. So, we went there plak, meramaikan kat rumah Tok Mak Pah plak. Izuan pun balik Alor Star petang tu, so he join the BBQ that nite.

2nd raya pagi2 lagi I dah keluar pegi Desa Kamilla jumpa dgn Pak Mat. Dia baru balik dari mekah buat Umrah. Lepas tu singgah Pekan Cina plak, beli Ikan Kering..pesanan dr Tg Nor Azah a.k.a Auntie Non. Tengahari Syed Kamaruzaman and family came. Dia baru dapat baby girl Sharifah Akilla Umairah. Punyala comei baby girl dia..we call her daughter as Baby Doll. Semua geram dengan Baby Doll, sampai dia tak senang dudukla. Dia pun baik plak tu…mau kat semua orang tak banyak kerenah…gelak memanjang. Baru 6 bulan. Abang dia Syed Abdullah…pun handsome macam daddy dia jugak. How I wish…dpt cute babies macam ni

Nadisha a.k.a Abg Bok balik Alor Star juga on 2nd raya. Family mertua dia dekat aje kat Bertam, Penang. Sejam dah sampai. Abang Shiral pun sampai hari ni jugak…dia dari Kelantan, dia sampai petang pukul 5.30pm. Ramaila umat manusia kat Alor Star. Total semua kat rumah tu is 29 orang…ramai tu. Lepas maghrib, kami semua serbu rumah Tg Asiah a.k.a Tok Nda kat Mentalun. My nieces & nephew suka pi sini sebab rumah Tok Nda ni ada banyak kek. Tok Nda jamu makan Roti Jala..kejap aja dah licin. We went there 4 cars. Penuh dah compound rumah Tok Nda. Nak buat macamana…dah big family.

3rd Raya plak. Pagi2 dah keluar pegi rumah Tok Nda. Sebab last nite my parents tak pegi sebab dah malam malas depa nak keluar. So, this morning lepas breakfast sebelum matahari naik dah ada kat depan rumah Tok Nda. Lama gakla duduk sana bersembang. During lunch time, Syed Osman Aidid’s family came. 4 kereta…tu pun dah penuh compound rumah, kereta my brothers including my car total dah 8. Then ni tambah another 4 …sampai ada yg kena tumpang park kereta kat rumah sebelah..sbb kawasan dah penuh. Then Syed Mustapha plak datang…Ya Allah…ramai sungguhla..penat melayan tetamu this year. Non stop yg datang tu. Then Mak Teh’s family from Penang plak datang. Tu tetamu paling last. Malam kami semua layan bunga api plak..heh..heh..heh.

4th raya plak. Papa nak kena urus hal tanah kat Pejabat Tanah di Alor Star. Dia pegi dgn Abg Wan and Uncle. Abg Bok, Abg Shiral, Naim & Syamil balik hari ni. Esok depa dah kerja. Yang datang hari ni is only Tg Kamel & family. Depa makan tengahari kat rumah.

The rest of the days, cuma orang2 kampung, kawan-kawan lama yg datang beraya kat rumah. Dah tak seramai hari2 yang lepas.

I balik KL on 20/10/07. Keluar rumah dalam pukul 9 lebih macamtu. Traffic not that heavy but moving. Along the way was raining. Tak boleh nak speed sangat. Took us 8 hours to reach KL. Sebelum tu singgah Sg Petani, jumpa Nda Aisyah. Singgah kejap aje, tak boleh nak lama takut lambat plak sampai KL nanti. Berhenti kat a few R&R…kali ni I rasa penat sangat. Kaki tiba-tiba boleh cramp…panicla nak tukar driver pun tak boleh. Papa tak nampak nak drive, lama juga I behenti kat R&R Sg Perak..urut kaki cramp. Dah tu dengan hujannya…letih sangat. Sampai rumah dah almost 7.

These are the pics taken during hari raya.

Slide ni plak taken by Nazwal. Dia ni berangan nak buat ala-ala Saiful Nang Pro Photographer. Mari kita tengok hasilnya…

Buka puasa dgn Girl

• Hari ni buka puasa dengan Girl kat Quality Hotel. Dah lama dia ajak I bebuka dengan dia. After so long, hari ni la baru dapat masa yang sesuai. Masalahnya, I ni malas nak drive petang2 ke Shah Alam lalu Federal Hightway. Jalan situ hari-hari jam tu yang tak sanggup tu, dan kena fikir 4 5 6 kali nak pegi sana. I left the office at 5.45pm traffic was very bad jam at Federal Highway.

• Sampai Quality Hotel pukul 7pm. Just nice...Girl pun dah tunggu kat reception. Ramai orang kat sana, from the coffee house until the lobby area penuh dgn meja and tempat makan. Hari ni kebetulan, staff from CIMB, RHB, other private cos pun ada. Puteri Umno pun ada jugak, boleh tahu sebab depa semua pakai uniform color pink.

• The food sedap jugak, RM55 per head. Lot's of choices...tp tak bolehla lawan hotel-hotel yang kat KL nih..more choices. We ate up to 8.30pm...lama tuuu....heh...heh...heh. Mana taknya, makan sambil sembang, lama tak jumpa so bykla isu-isu semasa nak update.

• Lepas tu, Girl ajak pegi SACC. So, okla...sbb awal lagi. Pegi kedai hp. Bukan nak beli hp, tp nak tukar number. Dari 1 kedai ke 1 kedai...semua number macam tak berapa nak menarik. Then this 1 shop, i really like the number its 019 - 3***7744. Sama dengan my car number. Girl kata - Haa...K.Shiera...ambilla...RM10 aje tu. Sbb apa dia cakap RM10, sbb baru-baru ni dia beli number baru harga RM10 aje. Tanpa fikir panjang so nak ambikla nombor tu...tanya2 kat amoi tu berapa harga? RM88 katanya. RM88!!! Amboiii...mahalnya!! Amoi tu cakap....nombor ni cantik maaa...harga RM88. Cehh...!!! terus i suruh dia simpan balik. Takpela...simpan dia punya number cantik tu. Well, nmpk gayanya kena surveyla cari number yang cun..cun.

• Sebelum balik singgah Secret Recipe beli Singapore Laksa The deliciously fragrant Singapore Laksa is flovoured with special in-house creation of shrimp paste, lengkuas, chillies and polygonum leaves..heemm...yummy..yummy. that's is for my dad. As for me plak..Chocolate IndulgenceCreamy and rich Belgian coverture chocolate and white chocolate filling. Absolutely a luscious, luxurious, sinfully rich chocolate lover's dream. Sedapnyaa...!! Girl ckp, K.Shiera...nak masuk mana ni kek ni? Tadi dah makan nasi, lamb, mee, yong tau fu, ABC, roti jala..tak cukup ke?? Ni bukan masalah tak cukup.....ni masalah i'm too skinny and i need to put on weight. She said, alaa....badan k.shiera nih...makanla byk mana pun...tetap maintain slim ...i jeless tauuu. Ha..ha...ha...ha....too bad, tp yang penting..as long as I sihat, tak sakit demam, tak ada sakit2 yg kronik, boleh jaga both my parents tu...dah syurkur alhamdulillah.

PwC buka puasa at JW Marriot

• First time drive to new office ni. Sbb malam ni ada buka puasa kat JW Marriot. Tu yg kena drive tu...kalau tak susahla nak balik malam ni. Tak reti lagi nak bujet time. So, pagi tadi I keluar rumah pukul 7.00am. Dulu masa kat WSD 7.15 ke 7.20 ke ..camtu. Pagi ni I lalu jalan orang kaya. LDP highway RM1.60..then ke TTDI, then Bangsar then masuk Jln Travers. Last nite dah usha2 dah parking yg sesuai, so hari ni kena praktikkanla. Bila I smpi kat parking tu...still empty...org yg menjaga parking tu pun tak sampai lagi. Masa tu pukul 7.45am. Well, tawakkalla...insyaAllah tak adala apa2 yg tak diingini berlaku. Parking situ murah RM4 aje. Compare to other places...yg mahal, and kena menapak punyala jauh...well abaikan. From my office window i can see my car...so setiap jam I akan singgahla kat tingkap nak jenguk cabai i tu..heh..heh..heh.

• Pukul 6 kami bertolak ke JW Marriot. Kami? Saper lagi? Well, Akla, Nora, Oya, Siti, K.Ita and Me. 6!! Ramai tu ....heh..heh..hhe..xper2...cabai i muat masuk kesemua mereka2 itu..jgn risau. Yang comel2 duduk belakang...Akla duduk sebelah I...balance aje...he..he..he.. Gamat sungguh cabai i hari tu...meriah. Jam sungguhla jalan nak p sana. Maklumla..masing2 nak balik buka puasa. Kami sampai sana pun dah just on time bebuka.

• It's a buffet dinner...the food not that bad. Banyak round jugakla makan hari ni.

• Then, bila dah selesai semuanya, I hantar K.Ita, Nora and Siti kat Stesen Putra Ampang Park. Then hantar Oya, then singgah rumah K.Yati jap, last sekali hantar Akla balik. I reached home at 11pm. Nasibla ayahanda ku tak bising...cuma dia call tanya kat mana aje. Tu biasalah.

1st day at 1 Sentral

• Pagi ni macam biasa naik 'limosin' to new office kat 1 Sentral. Cuma hari ni i turun kat KL Sentral..instead of Bank Negara..selamat tinggal BN.

• As a PwC staff, 1st day plak tu, we need to wear a green stricking color shirt. Well, i malula....so i wear a cardigan to cover it up...heh..heh..heh..not that obvious with a cardigan right? Sampai KL Sentral, everywhere, everycorner i can see ppl wear the same shirt. Well, nvm..that's show we part of PwC staff.

• Seperti yg dijanjikan since last week, me and akla janji nak pegi sana sama-sama. I wait for her and k.ros. While waiting k.ana pun ada jugak, kami naik 'limosin' yg sama. Finally they came. We walk to our office, cross MIDA building, then Plaza Sentral building, then Maxis building. Not that far actually, maybe sbb ramai yg jalan sama-sama pagi tu kot...less than 10 minutes kami dah sampai. Takla seperti yg diwar-warkan jauh..kena jln about 15 - 20 minutes!! Eemm...tak betul tu...tak betul.

• Sampai lobi, k.aishah is there...assist us to go direct to Level 15 take our new ID Tag. Bila dah register, we had a welcome gift which is a hive sag bag. Coollll!!! Inside it there's a mineral water and a mug and a book to show us the exact location, where, how, who, Q&A..etc..etc..

• I base at 9th floor, Akla at 11th floor...we need to separate :( Well, finally my new office and new environment, new place, new in everything. My boxes is all here....syukur alhamdulillah tak ada yg hilang. My bos TWH, dah siap kemas barang-barang dia, cepat sungguhla...and her room view is so nice...every body really admire her room.

• Packing time!!! Malas sungguh....nak kena buat jugaklakan. My place paling hujung sekali..paling jauh sekali...paling strategic. Tak ganggu sesapa...mmg privacyla..i really like my place. So, no body will ask me, 'where's the paper, can i borrow ur stapler, the machine is stuck, why the printer cannot print, why the paper is jam, how to start the photocopy machine, and many more' heeemmm....well, now no more Ms Nice Lady okkk. The office phone is so changgih!! Boleh view Missed Calls, Received Calls, Placed Calls...jakun kejap..he..he.he. I have my very own printer, tak payahla jalan jauh2 nak amik printed docs.

• During lunch time...we took pics here and there, Oya lepak at place..sembang2....bulan puasala katakan. Kalau tak..dah lama kami keluar merayau2 cari tempat makan.

• So, the pics below...shows the new office environment of TLS/CIP Dept.

Joanne's Wedding

Wedding Joanne hari ni kat Concorde Hotel, KL. I pegi dgn Oya. Fetch Oya at her house at 7.15pm, mmg lambat well, chinese wedding ni selalunya lambat start eventhough tulis kat invitation kad tu 7.30pm dinner is served!!

When we reached there everybody dah masuk, we're the last guest to reach there. Nasib baik our table dekat dengan pintu masuk. Kami duduk sekali dgn Yvonne. She came with her husband and her son. That table ada lagi other couples which I tak kenal. Maybe kawan2 pada bride & groom.

I saw my ex bos Mr Chooi. Suppose to meet my other bosses as well, like Shirley Ng, Julie Tan, Tan Bee Ti...tp tak nampak pun depa tu semua. They sit elsewhere and quiet far actually.

By 10pm, minta diri nak balik. Lepas Joanne & her husband dah YammSeenngg...on the stage...we make a move. Jauh nak balik nih..nnt lambat plak sampai rumah, murka plak ayahanda ku.

Joanne & Johnny - CONGRATULATIONS!!! Can't wait to see your cute little ones :-)

Last day kat WSD

Hari ni last day kat WSD. Gonna miss this office and my working place. For 6 years I’ve been working here…I mean at WSD, byk gakla kenangan kat sini. Kena naik 2 train kalau dtg WSD, Komuter & Lrt..mahal plak tu. Total cost RM4.40 per day.

Makanan kat sini pun dah tak boleh nak jumpa kat 1 Sentral..mcm kalau breakfast, I & oya mesti pegi kedai Min..pekena roti canai ka, roti telur ka, nasi lemak ka, dah tu paling special is Nescafe Ice…ala2 Starbucks gituu…tp murah and sedap. Sambil makan tu..sempat lagi silau2 jejaka2 kat situ…pehtu talk about it. Oya…no more handsome lawyer :-) Hari jumaat plak kedai Min ada Nasi Bryani..minum dgn Air Asam Boi…pergghhh…sedapnya!!! Akla plak, I know she gonna miss her Nescafe Ice Vanilla …betul tak? Tu cerita about breakfast. Ni nk cerita about lunch plak. Gonna miss Mak Cik Nasi Ayam, Nasi Goreng Kunyit, Kedai Mak Usu & Food court kat Maju Junction. Kalau rajin nak cross main road kat MJ tu..kami makanla kat food court sana…kalau malas…dekat2 ajela. Kalau rasa2 nak makan Nando’s either kat The Mall or Sogo. Kalau shopping plak, MJ, Sogo, The Mall..very near. Walking distance aje. Tp The Mall tu kena naik taxi…but still near to WSD.

Our tailor pun kat Medan Mara..walking distance jugak. Lepas ni jauhla nak menapak ke EsDilla tu kawan-kawan :-) Tp tak pe, kalau kawan-kawan nak tempah baju, u guys can always pass to me the material (provided u guys kena bgtau fesyen apa nak tau), I can go there on weekend, tu pun kalau I nak tempah baju or ambil..bolehla sekali harung :-)

Everything packed!!! Waiting for the mover to take all our boxes to our new office. By 4.30pm they came and took all the boxes. Harap sangat janganla ada yang hilang. Snap a few pics here and there. I bought my chair for only RM5.00!!! Heh..heh…heh..cheap huh!! By 5.15pm we left WSD for good. Sedey jugakla..well, tak sabar jugak nak pegi office baru nih. Akla helped me to push the chair and carry some of things to my car. Thanks Akla for your help!!! Later boleh tolong lagi ek :-)
