3rd day of the week!

all was well...



1. aikido on Sunday was even better than i had expected. though there was this minor miscommunication between Pak Dillah, Shikin and us, class was still conducted during the usual slot. Dani, Jali and Baby weren't around. Shikin too. therefore, it's just Pak Dillah and another (manly) instructor - Abang Mat.

unlike Dani, Jali and Baby, Abang Mat was more accommodating yet strict. he didn't mind repeating even the simplest moves which yours truly stupidly weren't able to comprehend. of course, he's hot!

2. met Esthna for lunch on Monday. macam biasalah, i had to switch on my Datin Farah mode.

Sportsplanet was where i had my dinner last night. ada BBQ! the spread consisted of the usuals - chicken wings, sausages, burger patties, fishes (terubok and kembung) and veggies. simple - i know, but we had fun! there were Ima & Zai, Gayah & Nono, Nai, Abang Olen, Suhaimi, Adib, Basri and yours truly - among others.

just a recap...



1. i felt surprisingly okay throughout Wednesday's kettlebell class. i did not consume anything after lunch apart from a couple of litres of water hours before to avoid dehydration. i guess that's good news for i didn't feel nauseated at all. as usual, i'd sweat buckets after 10 minutes into the session. there were only Kevin, Azreen and myself. being in a small group of people somehow had increased my focus on completing each exercise.

so far so good.

stayed back for an hour at Studio 23 catching up with Azreen...while gulping down the contents of 2 cans of 100 PLUS.

2. met Ashraf at Ileq Ileq on Thursday night. yup...a delight indeed. he did confirm about Bob's recent engagement to Leyana, as well as Razi's. he's now a DPP [typical for an LLB (Hons.) holder] and considering applying for PTD. if he feels that he could survive working with the gomen, by all means - go for PTD. being a DPP has its perks but it's undeniably stressful.

the hiburan at Ileq Ileq sucked that night. the band which performed was good. the sound system wasn't.

3. met the person behind Lea Laurielle after solat Jumaat . it was an eventful meeting. i had a blast and i hope the said person was too.

4. aikido class was fun. Diana finally joined the class. we're taught by Ghazali and Hamdani this time around. Baby couldn't make it for he followed his dad to the dojo. they only came when we're about to leave.

i wonder what would be in store for me this afternoon. hhmm...

aktiviti ku di hari Easter...


1. spent Easter morning at home. brunch were the classic old tumpik with beef rendang.

2. aikido at 3.30 p.m. Baby was indeed the Sensei again. couldn't really concentrate on my lesson, unlike yesterday. entah, hilang fokus!

3. posed for a photoshoot at Warriors' Square as one of Nizam's many subjects. there were also Zai & Ima, Mira & O'oi, Shikin, Maymei and Baby.

4. attended a majlis doa selamat in conjuction of Zai's parents' Pearl wedding anniversary (April 1st) and also Zai & Ima's Wood wedding anniversary (April 10th). the spread was burp-worthy.

5. to end my Easter Sunday, went karaoke-ing with Zai & Ima and Dino. i sucked, but i wasn't tone deaf.

Funeral TVC commercial

classic Yasmin Ahmad!

i am not as complicated as others have perceived...


if i hate you, i will hate you for the rest of my life...which include making fun of you until you cannot stand it anymore and ignoring your existence at all cost.

if i care about you, i will do it wholeheartedly...and it does not need to be let known to the masses.

semoga bahagia hingga ke akhir hayat!


happy 5th wedding anniversary, Zai & Ima.

God is with you, my friend...




Syed, if He wills it...it'd be yours. stay positive, alright? i love you. all the best.

Sarawak cuti esok, yay! Sabah juga, yay!


why? tomorrow's Good Friday - to commemorate the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ.

an anniversary...


today - April 9th - marks my 3rd year in Blogspot. i am still the same, albeit setting up blogs and deleting them for several times. alhamdulillah, my 4 blogs are still alive and kicking - this (You Want Me To Be Politically Correct?); my poetry blogs (Words of The Ungrateful and From Oklahoma To Wisconsin); and Eid One World In Photos.

3 years in Blogspot - superficial maybe, but i have seen myself grow...be it positively or otherwise.

here's for more fabulous years to come.

thank you, readers - wherever you may be.
