Dear Malaysia

Bless to all Malaysian, I'm greeting from London. 

If you often travel with Malaysia Airlines boeing 747, this video will play on your screen before touched down. I feel proud watching this video among all the mat salleh in my flight from London to KL. It get my nerves when I heard the Londoners ordering nasi lemak instead of steak to the stewardess. 

So here is my greeting for you, MY Malaysia. 

Dear Malaysia,

Today is your 54th birthday. I'm so proud to be Malaysian and I'm sure all Malaysian feel the same way too. Everywhere I go the world recognized you. You're so famous to the world. I still remember when I'm in Paris buying souvenirs, the souvenirs guy approach me and asked me if I am a Malay. I say yes and he says "Singapore,Malaysia, or Indonesia?" Proudly I say "Malaysia". As if your name is a mantra or something, this guy is magically give me discount. Maybe it is just the marketing strategy, but I know that I'm more than proud to carry your name with me. I never try to used your name to get any discount. I swear!

Dear Malaysia,

Do you know a lot of foreigners do speak in Malay? The word "Terima kasih" is famous as "Bonjour" in Paris. To be honest with you, I'll be more patriotic while I'm abroad compared when I was home. Don't get me wronged, I will always be patriotic everywhere I go even though I sometimes reply the "Terima Kasih" with "Welcome". Well, its supposed to be "Sama-sama"

Dear Malaysia,

After all these years, I realize many Malaysian had take you for granted sometimes (including me). Many young generation didn't know how to appreciate you. We didn't know how they struggle to get the independence. But one thing for sure, we will never let go of this independence we have, as much as we can't let go the 3-in-the morning-Roti-Canai at mamak stall. We will never give up. Don't worry.  

Dear Malaysia,

I just want you to know we, Malaysian are very friendly. Not only among us, but among others as well.  Everywhere I go, every time I encounter with other Malaysian they never failed to greet me. I know they  always make their way to the Malaysian Hall whenever they miss YOU. Many malaysian despite of races gather here just to eat our homemade dishes. Chinese, Indian and Malay are very well unite. We always wear a smile on our face. We even smile when we get to the court for divorce cases. 

Dear Malaysia,

The most proudest thing that really get into my nerves is to see our very own Jalur Gemilang flying high at Trafalgar Square. As I stare, I get this an overwhelming feeling inside me. Something that can make my eyes teary. Then I know and I realized just how much I love you. We wouldn't want to have so many obese people like in western countries. Full of alcohol, partying, and fast food. Because we are proud to ourselves. Wa are unique in our own way. 

Wish you a very Happy 54th of Independence. 

*hugs and kisses*

Yours Truly,

Aishah

Happy Eid

Happy Eid to everyone. I'm greeting from London *loser*.

Maaf Zahir & Batin

Ziarah Raya Blog

Wish a Selamat Hari Raya to all bloggers in Ziarah Raya Blog.  Maaf Zahir & Batin.

I'll be celebrating Raya in London with unfriendly London mood. *___*

So no ketupat, no rendang, and no cholesterol heaven food. 

Have a blast with family and good food while I'm cuddling  and crying in my duvet here in gloomy rainy London Day. But really, do enjoy your day and don't worry with this depressed girl. 

No, really. Have a blast Raya.

18 Hours Shoot!!

I have a story for you... About Him.. 

.

.

.

.

He loves me, does He? Or maybe He forgotten me. 

I turn to my sis and say "He has forgotten me"

Sis:  Don't say that. He loves you that's why He test you 

*rolling her eyes*

Me: Do I need to be tested before I get what I desire?

Sis: Yess, off course!

I keep my eye on my watch. The last time I ate was 12 hours before. The clock is ticking but time has seem not moving at all. I try to focus on other thing. Watching TV, shopping, playing games, just name it. I did everything to keep me going but I feel weak. I feel like a zombie. Half dead, half alive. I can't move on. I try to get in touch with Him but to no avail. It gets disconnected. I never feel this way before. I keep on praying and keep on crying. 

Sunset makes me giddy, like there's a butterflies on my stomach. I feel alive for a second time. I feel stronger than ever. I heard the most beautiful Azan ever as the Imam from the Central Mosque of London call to pray. Yess!! That's it! I long waited for this Azan and long waited to break my fasting. 

Goshhhhhhh!!!I have prayed, begged and asked from God to give me strength. A happier life with loads of food. Is it too much to ask for?  By the end of the day, with every patience I take, He grant me with what I desired. I'm longing for foooooddddd... 18 hours of fasting is really crazy challenging. 

Anyhow to lose hope is to lose faith in God. Have patience for God will grant you with what you want. What you desire. Even you're desiring for foods... I survived! *chin up* 

This is the whole new experience for me. Fasting for 18 hours a day in London.  Two more weeks to go. Wish me luck.

 * All muslims around the world are fasting during this holy Ramadhan month during the daylight hours from dawn to sunset. When Ramadhan fell in the summer, fasting often tough. 

Quote Of The Day

Life is like a mini skirt. The shorter it become, the more meaningful it turns out to be.

Without Yasmin

Dear Yasmin

For your info, we went to Sepang GT Japan without you. Someone told me you should allowed your friend to hurt you really bad once. Well you know, we hurt you a lot for not inviting you to join us. I know you won't forgive us for it. 

The Memoirs of Cik Gu

Tribute to all teachers around the globe

It's kinda lame for me, still alive and yet still not posting any entry for teachers day. I'm extra out-dated, so I decide to give it a go. We are still in the month of May, aren't we?

To me, teaching is a profession that leaves highly recognizable mannerism. It is fascinating and alarming, how you get stuck with the habits of your profession. Habits of thought, speech and action.

I'm belong to the generation where I remember the old style where the teacher went 

"The capital city of Japan is Tok-" 

and the pupils chorused

 "-yo....." 

This went throughout the whole lesson.

"Everyday you must stu-"

"-dy" 

me and the other classmates replied

"If you don't study you become stu-"

"-pid" 

we chorused happily

"Stupid like buffa-"

"-loes" 

the whole class shout!

Sometimes I have to be over careful not to give the wrong tail. I once dropped a very brick this way:

Teacher: Have you been to the Arkib Negara? 

They say the resources they providing is use-"

 "-less!" I say innocently not knowing or forgetting the other possible suffix "-full"

And when it time for Sejarah (History) lesson, half of us would act blindly staring half asleep at the whiteboard. Who cares what's the name of the ship that brought Alfonso de' alberque (or whateva the name is) to Malacca? But my teacher will give this ferocious glare and yells "Listen!" which suddenly the crowd awake and is as fresh as gold right through the session. 

I must admit if there's no teachers, there will be no prime minister or any other profession .

How many of us are stuck with the habits of our profession?

I'm sure that retired army man lived like a civilian during their service. They force to leave unmistakable marks. 

And what it feels like to be a journalist? Do they have this habit greeting the news of landslide or earthquake with the cry "Good! This will hit the front head!" or they sigh "What?? Only 400 dead?"

Still, I think teachers give my life full of spice. Something to learn, something to laugh on,something to influent to. If there's no teachers, then I wouldn't aware to stop myself from correcting my grammar.

 Or Would I? 

He's Taken... I'm Broken

Seeing someone you love marrying someone else is hurting from the inside. *sniff*

So my Prince William is getting married and I only have 12hours more to stop the wedding.  *I kid*

How? Yasmin suggests we fly to London and as soon as we reach, she will convince the Queen.

I asked her what should I put on my back?

"Just wear any  wedding gown that you have." 

Yasmin says she very much sure that she can convinced the Queen so I'll be the next Princess of Wales because The Queen like her very much. 

The Queen wants someone who is unique. Well, I use my bare hand to eat instead of using fork and spoon so I am unique for that reason. 

True! We are unique. YES WE ARE!! All Malaysian are uniques.

Kate seems to look beautiful because we always have that mind set which says Westerners are beautiful for their fair skin. We are beautiful too. We have asian tanned skin that all the mat salleh are dying to have. God, yes! We are hot! 

We are all beautiful inside out so don't hide it with our insecurity. Confident is the key. 

 Now I'm broken and he is taken! 

I should move on because he's no longer what I would call a "hot stuff" 

*chin up*

Life goes on but how long their love can survive?

As long as they have the feeling that won't fade away :)

So Selamat pengantin baru Prince William and Kate!! 

Wishing you to have a great life ahead happily ever after.

Be a good King and Queen in the future.

Psst: Cinderella's fairy-tale-ever-after really work on you Kate. If I were you, I'm sure to bring the Prince to Yun Nam Hair Care. 

Speaking of Commercial Advertisement

I'm more than happy to share this video with you guys

Watched this cool Evian Roller Babies advertisement in London. 

What do you guys think about the video?

The babies are so cute and sooo cool!!

They even have an incredible hulk biceps.

I keep comparing the one we have in Malaysia

We lack to have this kind of quality commercial videos

The only commercial tv ads that always  pay to my respect is Petronas.

Not only it making me smile but the one I could't barely to forget. 

Ok. Enough blabbing.

I could be wrong, of course.

Boots,Boots,Boots!

UGG Boots are the "it" trends in London nowadays. We can find everybody walking in it. 

It wont feel awkward walking in a Ronald-Mcdonald-look-alike boots

Frankly speaking, I won't allowed myself to wear this kind of boots in Malaysia because I don't want to be unfriended by my friend and I won't give a chance for you to laugh at me :D

If there's anybody here dare to wear this kind of boots in Malaysia? 

Seriously, these piece of design is now hitting the London town. *No Kidding*

At first I wonder why all these people allowed themselves walking in this boot. Later I found out, this boots is very comfy. Then, I get myself a pair of it.

Look at the materials. Verrrrry hairy!! 

I feel like walking on carpets along the Oxford Street. It will never hurt my feet. 

And this one is another pair from the same brand but different design.

Look at them!

It's very comfy to wear on winter days but a BIG NO NO to wear in country like Malaysia.

The Earth Hour and Silly Me

I started to celebrate The Earth Hour two years ago. I was eager to be part of Malaysian who concern about the environment and was very excited to take part. I switched off the lights, TV, and left only the refrigerator. Two years later (26 March 2010), I grew older,wiser and totally changed. Suddenly this thought came across my mind. 


Hmmm, why do I need to do this? Do we have to do so? Do I really concern about the environment?


Later that day, I saw on Wawa's BBM status, "Tak payah lah nak earth  hour sangat!" Hahaha at least I'm not alone and I don't feel that bad. Then I asked her, 


Me: "Wa, perlu ke nak celebrate earth hour? "
Wawa: Tak perlu kot. Aku hisap rokok, asap rokok aku tu polution jugak
Me: Hrmm... Exzos kete aku keluar kan asap jugak.


So when my family members asked to switch off the lights, I refused. 


Reason: What?? Lights off?? Err, nanti hantu datang! How???


My point here is, do we only care bout our earth for only an hour  a year or do we really care bout our earth for every second of our lives?

STEEL GUNNERS

Every Arsenal fan bitterly disappointed. We reached the top and it’s the chance to win a TROPHY!!!
However, luck still doesn’t smile to us. After years of waiting, now we’ll be waiting again. Judging from the game, I’m questioning myself. Is this arsenal standard of play?? The keeper only have one mistake, he’s very young. The team members need to show they are mentally strong. (Such pity for Febregas)




Maybe Wenger failed to motivate the players enough. We played as if we just need to turn up and the trophy will be handed to us because we are Arsenal. The Birm guys wanted it and they gave their all.


Defensive blunder is on the path of everyone and therefore the team is not to blame but I know we are better than most teams.


Well, it’s just a game and nobody’s perfect. Still keep the faith. No matter what, tomorrow is the day to rise up our head and fight. FA is not easy and the Champ League also not easy side.


It was traumatic night after all. No fans believes today lose is like a dream, but we are steel gunners.
