Pantun 1 Tahun Setengah

To all the folks who know me, personally or virtually LOL I am alright because I have been in KL since last month so was not affected by the flood and so is my family, and the house, and even my cat Labu! Alhamdulillah. Things in Kerteh are not as bad as in Kemaman and Kuantan so for that we are all very grateful and thankful. But of course we still extend our helping hands to our fellow Malaysians especially the ones in Kemaman and Kuantan.

Anyway, ini malam saya tiba-tiba bikin pantun. Jadi, layan je lah...



Pantun 1 Tahun Setengah

Dipotong dihiris bawang merah,
Untuk ditumis dalam kuali,
Luka di hati masih berdarah,
Terberi salah pertama kali.

Bawang ditumis baunya wangi,
Menusuk hidung terjaga lalu,
Saat bahagia semuanya pelangi,
Sangkanya tidak kan pergi berlalu.

Teh panas kopi panas,
Hirup minumnya di dalam piring,
Jangan dikenang gelap yang lepas,
Nanti terlepas fajar menyingsing.

Mula makan dengan Bismillah,
Alhamdulillah di akhir tanda syukur,
Jodoh pertemuan kuasa Allah,
Dengan takdriNya kita berumur.

Yep. I know. Amateur-ish LOL. Tiba-tiba rasa nak buat, jadinya aku buat.

Selamat malam semua!

Mimpi Itu Mainan Tidur

Every now and then I heard people say that. I thought that so before. That dreams are just dreams. As a result of some brain activity whatnot. I could be wrong so you guys can just google it.

I dream a lot. In my sleep. Almost every time I sleep, there will be dreams in it and I almost always manage to remember it. Though I heard some facts passed around in social media that actually you only remember 5% of your dreams after few minutes you wake up. I don't know how true is this but in my case, that 5% seems like a movie. Imagine if I do remember the whole dreams!

Few years back I always experienced something like deja vu though I can't be 100% sure if it really is dejavu. If I really did go to the future in my dreams or I was just misled because it felt familiar back then, the whole event, thing, occassion that took place that made me feel like I already did this, came here, said these words to this person. When that happened, I would usually feel excited, and scream out, "Wooo! Deja vu!" While some of my friends think it was freaky and creepy that I experienced all that, I think otherwise. I have this theory back then, derived from a comic books I read LOL and of course from movies and stuff, that if a matter passes the speed of light, it can bend the time and dimensional continuum which enables that matter to travel to the past or future. So, I have this theory that when you sleep, your consciousness or, soul, travels faster than light, perhaps to the future, hence the dreams. LOL i know it is utter rubbish but I was always curious about things like this.

I miss that back then. The feeling of curiosity, adventure. Thirst for knowledge, to know more, just for the sake of exploring the unknown. I guess, somewhere in my journey, something might have happened that resulted in me being the not-so-adventurous, curious Danial anymore. I read, but after 1 min, "TL;DR" pops up in my head.

I guess I need to take things one at a time. Like my buddy, Adib B said, "Slow-slow, boh."

Thanks For The Daily Traffic!

Just got back from work. And saw the traffic for my blog for today. Seems I have to thank these blogs for giving me free traffic almost everyday.

Ignore (not really gonna ignore it) the top one, ohjob. It's because last time when I worked at Ligno Biotech I put up a job ad there, so there you have it, the constant visitor coming in everyday.

The other blogs which have been very helpful and contributing to the constant visitor to my blog. Namee Roslan, Kak Ja (aka Jajazack) and Plain83.

Even though Kak Ja has been quite busy lately with schools and whatnot, I always got some traffic from her blog. FYI, Kak Ja is my cousin. From my mother's side. Hehehe.

Namee Roslan and Plain83 are the bloggers I got to know online. With Namee Roslan, I think it was last year or few years back when I was active that I started following her blog. Anyway, it's definitely a blog targeted at the ladies, most of the time. Oh, and she is Nuffnang's Blogger of the Month for November y'all!

Plain83 and I have something in common - our interest in Japanese stuff, mostly manga, anime though I don't possess any highly refined art skills to doodle. Plus I reckon she is good in Japanese too. She will leave you by the end of every post with "Jyaa, mata ne koneko-tachii!" which if my memory serves me right means "Till then, catss!".

Unemployed Atau Menjual Anggur

Anyone unemployed here? Atau dalam bahasa Melayunya menganggur? (so sebab tu titlenya aku letak "Unemployed atau Menjual Anggur" =P)

Aku rasa dari zaman aku belajar isu pengangguran ni tak habis-habis. Kalau korang ingat masalah ni hanya ada di Malaysia, negara lain banyak jugak. Masa aku belajar dulu, Australia pon banyak gak masalah unemployment ni. Tiap-tiap tahun member-member Australia aku duk cakap pasal ni kat facebook. Nak-nak bila dekat pilihanraya Australia. Okay, itu Australia. Back to Malaysia.

Dipetik dari Utusan 11 November 2013

Lebih dari 50% tu, 56% penganggur di Malaysia merupakan graduan. Ini cuma berdasarkan maklumat portal JobsMalaysia. Tak pergi survey detail lagi. Kalau check sorang-sorang, entah-entah lebih lagi dari statistik yang dikeluarkan Datuk Ismail Abd. Muttalib.

Ada orang kata sebab umur pencen dalam sektor kerajaan dah naik, jadi yang government servant yang dah otai pon lagi lama dalam perkhidmatan, menyebabkan takde kekosongan. Aku tak pasti sejauh mana kebenaran kenyataan ini la kan. Tapi takkan semua graduan ni nak kerja sektor kerajaan? Sektor swasta apa cerita kawan?

Bila mai bab sektor swasta, orang cakap penguasaan bahasa Inggeris graduan-graduan ni tak seperti yang industry players expect. Lagi sekali, aku tak pasti kebenaran statement macam ni. Sebab member2 aku yang grad local uni, aku perasan semua jenis bijak2, kritis. Bahasa Inggeris diorang okay ape sebab at least boleh communicate the message lagi. Cuma takdelah sampai ke tahap dalam American TV shows punya English la semuanya.

The latest statistic aku dapat dari Jabatan Perangkaan Malaysia hari tu, cuma up to Ogos 2013. Detailed gak study tu. Kalian boleh check di sini. Lepas tengok statistik tu dan juga kepilan berita ni, aku rasa tak semua penganggur dalam statistik tu tak dapat kerja. Kemungkinan besar ada yang memilih untuk tak bekerja sebab ramai perempuan dari lelaki yang tak bekerja sebenarnya kerana? Jadi suri rumah dan dapat suami kaya. Suami kaya? Amboiih, betul ke ni? Nanti aku check botul ke tak.

Alhamdulillah, rakyat Malaysia ramai yang kaya. Tapi ni tahun lepas punya cerita la kan.

Sebut pasal pengangguran di kalangan fresh graduate, baru-baru ni terbaca tweet kawan aku sorang ni. Sedang dia makan kat kafe tempat kerja, dengar ada senior-senior tempat kerja dia tengah kondem budak-budak fresh graduate dalam engineering. Ada sorang mat salleh sekali la. Diorang kata budak fresh ni tak efficient langsung. Itu je la yang aku dapat dari tweet tu. Korang rasa, bagaimana pulak?

Kemalangan Di Kampungku

Tadi, baru je tengah duk check facebook selepas makan malam, tiba-tiba nampak member aku di kampung (Kerteh) shared berita pasal ada kemalangan kat jambatan Sungai Kerteh tu. Seingat aku tak pernah accident takpun jarang-jarang sangat kat kawasan tu. Melalui maklumat facebook PAS Dun Kemasik yang member aku shared-kan tu, dalam pukul 5.30 petang kejadian berlaku.

Aku pun tanpa membuang masa terus tanya member-member Kerteh kat Whatsapp. Memang betullah kemalangan tu berlaku. Dan sedihnya member kepada member aku yang accident tu. "Geng forte.." katanya. Masih tak dijumpai lagi. Aku berharap ada berita baiklah untuk ahli keluarga dan rakan-rakan pemandu Forte tu.

Gambar-gambar ni member aku share kat group Whatsapp kitorang.
