Happy 2013 & Things that made me smile...

I hope it's not too late to wish all of you Happy 2013.

Life has been a bit static lately & writer's block has been frequent... Need to do something about this ya... hmmm...

Anyway, my first entry this year is...

Random things that made me smile lately...

1. Early morning last week, around 7.15 am, in KL... a car broke down in the middle of the road... The driver was struggling to move his car to the roadside... a few motorists stopped and helped him. It's nice to see that in the middle of their busy lives & while rushing to go to office, they still found the time & a heart to help others in need. That was one of the moments that made me so proud of my ordinary countrymen :) and made me smile.

2. While listening to Nasional FM...  there was an advertisement about BR1M which I assumed at first was a 'kiss a**' advertisement (mind my language... heheheee...) but, I was so wrong. Listening to the rest of it, it's actually an advertisement to remind us that although BR1M was given by our government, lets not forget that it's actually from Allah and... when the person said, 'dewan BR1M penuh, tapi masjid nak dapat satu saf pun susah' (something like that... I don't remember the line exactly), it was really 'in my face'... and made me smile... an embarassed smile that is... erkkk...

So, the lesson is... do not forget to be grateful to Allah. Everything is from Him...

3. When I turned on my radio last Saturday, I heard this song for the first time... and it made me smile. So, I wanna share the song with you guys... Enjoy!

My favourite line is...
     Hidup mewah tanpa berhutang
     Hati bersih tak lupa sembahyang



Happy 2013 you guys! I wish you all the best that life can give to you!

2 interesting blogs --> definitely a must visit!

At times, boredom has its own advantages. Bloghopping that is... :)

I found this interesting blog while hopping around the net --> http://withlovefrommalaysia.blogspot.hk/

It's written by Hannah, an American exchange student, now in Ipoh. I love reading her blog because she reminds me of how wonderful my country is. Plus, I got to see my country in different perspectives  through a young foreigner's eyes. The way I read it, to Hannah everyday in Malaysia is an adventure. I smiled everytime I read her blog entries... my favorite would be the listings of her likes & dislikes in Malaysia.

You guys should go & read her blog... It's amusing :)

Another one is a photoblog of a well known photographer. You'll be amazed by the photos he captured.

I wish I can be a photographer like him...
Travel around the world... capture amazing sceneries, events, potrait... and share it with the world...

So nice...

Hmmm...

Oppsss... back to reality now. Off to meeting Miss Anastasia!

Life of Pi... here we come!

Alooo...

Rahimah Rahim - Doa

I guess this is a suitable pre- Eidul Adha post...

A touching lyric.

Hopefully this will help to remind us & bring us closer to Allah s.w.t, The Most Gracious, Most Merciful...

* Lyrics in Malay

 *****

Hanya padaMu aku meminta

Sesungguhnya Kau pemurah

Ampuni segala dosaku..

Kesejahteraan, kedamaian...

Keimanan, ketaqwaan...

Pintaku dariMu Tuhan

Selawat serta salam

buat Nabi junjungan

kepada muslimin dan juga muslimat

Ya Allah Ya Tuhanku

aku mendengar seruan

dan hanya kepadaMu ku beriman

KeranaMu aku disini

KepadaMu aku kembali

Apabila tiba saatnya nanti

Sehingga tiba detik itu

Ku bermohon hanya dariMu

Engkau peliharailah diriku

Dengan namaMu Allah Yang Agung

Yang Pengasih Yang Pengampun

kepadaMu ku berlindung

*****

Salam Aidil Adha everyone.
May all the sacrifices we have made or going to make is all because of Allah.
InsyaAllah.

Sultan Abdul Samad building at night (Kuala Lumpur)

I passed by this building on my way home last night. This building is always beautiful at night. It's always lighted with colours. Some nights, it's lighted with different colours, but tonight, only purple. I usually don't stop to admire its view. But last night I did... and I can share the view with you guys :)

There were a few other cars parked by the roadside. All of them, were also taking photographs of this building with their DSLR...

I was only armed with my phone camera :p

Nevertheless, the pictures are still good & I want to share it here.

Enjoy!

Note: Samsung galaxy Note 10.1 camera does not produce a good picture quality.

Tennis: Malaysian Open 2012

I got a chance to watch tennis Malaysian Open finals on Sunday, thanks to Miss A. Salleh. I'm not a tennis fan, but I went coz Miss A. Salleh asked me to, it was a free ticket & I've never watched tennis match before. I know nothing about tennis, except the fact that the players are rich & some of them are very hot :p

As I told Miss A.Salleh, my knowledge of tennis players stopped at Boris Becker, Martina Navratilova, Andre Agassi & Steffi Graf...

and of course her jaw dropped... hihihiiii...

For someone like me, who is not a tennis fan, watching tennis is tiring. Although there were some exciting parts. I did enjoy my time during the games. Sometimes, I was more excited than the tennis fan beside me :) But to be honest, there were quite a few times during the games where I asked myself... when is this going to end??? The games seemed to go on forever... 

And my lower back already hurting from sitting too long... (such a weak lower back :p)

But, that is also the part where tennis players impressed me most. They can play for so long... The singles final match lasted for almost 3 hours. Such stamina! 

... and they served at >120km/h everytime! Such strength!

Such an impressive sport!

To tennis players, I salute you for your strength & stamina (not to forget how hot Rafael Nadal is :p).

To tennis fan, I salute your endurance for watching the game :)

I'll go to the game again... if I got free tickets of course. Plus, it is always enjoyable being around sports fans.

They are such a sport!

The score stayed this way for about 20 minutes.
