the 100th

This is my 100th entry.

I bought a keyboard online. Casio ctk-4000. I don't know how to play a song, though. I actually want to learn playing a piano, so I thought of taking the first step by buying a keyboard that might not 100% sound like a piano but at least it could help me to familiarize with the rudiments of music.

Plus, if genetics or DNA or RNA or proteins upset me, I can always turn to the keyboard. Amazon, tolong ship keyboard saya cepat-cepat ok.

Nawaitu

Kadang-kadang, aku buat sesuatu bukan dengan nawaitu yang betul. Aku kadang-kadang buat sesuatu untuk kemegahan dan pujian.

Ya Allah, jika jalan yang aku pilih ini hitam nawaitunya, berikanlah aku petunjuk. Tapi jika putih, berikan aku kekuatan dan keredhaanMu. Amin.

Question mark?

The genes for white men skin color are mutations of the genes of the original men of color.
Males genes are mutations of the original females.
Is violence a mutation of peace?
Is bad a mutation of kind?
Is ugly a mutation of pretty?

We don't fight because of races or religions, there's no bad race or good race, but there's a good man and a bad man. We fight because of humanity, not ethnicity.

                                                                                                        

trilogy

1. Ikan yang tiada kaki pon boleh melompat tinggi.
Ayam yang tiada tangan, mampu menyuapkan anak-anaknya.
Manusia yang cukup sifat, selalu lupa tanggungjawab.
Selalu fikir gagal, susah fikir cuba.

2. Kalau hidup ni, kita boleh tau siapa yang suka kita
dan siapa yang tak suka kita, apa yang akan jadi?
Maka tiada lah istilah mengumpat, plastik dan hipokrit!

3. Dalam hidup ni, susah nak puaskan hati semua orang.
Dalam 10 orang, mesti sekurang-kurangnya 1 orang tidak puas hati.
Jadi, apa yang perlu kita lakukan?
Apa susah, tekan lah ctrl-X, diikuti dgn ctrl-V di recycle bin.

I read few blogs and came across with an excerpt of a book written by Muhammad Ali's daughter, Hana Ali. 

"If memory serves me correctly, I was wearing a little white tank top and a short black skirt. I had been raised Orthodox Muslim, so I had never before worn such revealing clothing while in my father's presence. When we finally arrived, the chauffer escorted my younger sister, Laila, and me up to my father's suite.

As usual, he was hiding behind the door waiting to scare us. We exchanged many hugs and kisses as we could possibly give in one day. My father took a good look at us. Then he sat me down on his lap and said something that I will never forget.

He looked me straight in the eyes and said, "Hana, everything that God made valuable in the world is covered and hard to get to. Where do you find diamonds? Deep down in the ground covered and protected. Where do you find pearls? Deep down at the bottom of the ocean covered up and protected in a beautiful shell. Where do you find gold? Way down in the mine, covered over with layers and layers of rock. You've got to work hard to get to them."
He looked at me with serious eyes. "Your body is sacred. You're far more precious than diamonds and pearls, and you should be covered too."

Statement yang aku paling menyampah

Situasi 1
Wartawan: Hi ***** (***** ialah seorang penyanyi/pelakon/artis)
*****: Hi. haa ni mesti ada soklan panas.
Wartawan: Of kos. kalau xpanas xde masa ak nak interbiu engkau. Haa, nak tanya ni, betul ke ko tengah bercinta skrg?
*****: Ye ke? mana dgr cerita ni? mana ada.
Wartawan: Aku taula. Aku wartawan. Sape org tu?
*****: Kantoi sudah. Haha.
Wartawan: Sapa org tu? Datuk? Artis?
*****: Eh tak lah, dia ORANG BIASA je. bukan artis, bukan vip.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adakah artis mempunyai taraf yg berbeza dari org lain sehingga ade terma 'ORANG BIASA'? kalau dalam istilah istana, orang kebanyakan tu memang boleh di terima sebab Sultan atau Raja ada kuasa dan takhta. Tapi artis? artis malaysia biasanya. ada takhta ke? cakaplah, "dia bukan artis" ke ape ke kan. Ko ingat ko artis ko ade kelas lah? oh my gucci pucci rucci!
