Just a Memory

Yes, yesterday way the day when Ummi Hafilda Ali the flamboyant sister of Azwan Ali and Azmin Ali did touched down in my kampong about bla bla bla bla bla bla... I wouldn't touch on the content of her talk but most people know about it more than I do. I could have been one of the earliest victims if I can trace back my meeting with TIBAI back in 1982 in Louisville, Kentucky (home of KFC Yum!). That was during the ISNA or Islamic Society of North America meeting. I was representing the muslim students from Findlay, Ohio. Incidently, I was called up with two other student leaders to meet saudara CIBAI in a room. There was some chit chat but not mistakenly before we part off, we were invited to visit his office when we return to Malaysia. But luckily I forgotten all about it especially when i landed my first job within 1 week upon landing at Subang Airport. Should I have had experience of others of being jobless after graduated, probably I have shitted out without having to exert any pressure.

Mungkin namaku telah menyelamatkan iman yang hanya setipis kulit bawang. Apa boleh buat, semua kerja anak Ali atau anak Berahim. Berahim Ali, OK, Hasan Ali, OK,

got to sign-off...

aidilfitri 2011 dalam kenangan

inilah kali pertama selepas 20 tahun aku tidak berhari-raya di kampungku, sungai betul atas. lebih tepat lagi aku beraya di kuala lumpur. semua ahli keluargaku...anak2, isteri, ibu mertua dan adik bongsuku nurul huda. perubahan pada tahun ini bagi memastikan kelancaran kepulangan anakku nurul fatin hamiza kembali ke galway, ireland bagi menyambung pengajiannya tahun 3 dalam bidang perubatan.

my 2nd day...

quite a fruitful and productive day today...had done number of things that give me additional peace of mind and soothing the eyes. good news also flew in from cyberjaya to sba which will tie me for the next two months until the benchmarking of cellular quality and coverage exercise for Celcom, DiGi, Maxis, and U-Mobile (alphabetical order, not in order of preference)...

i like living and spending my time in my kampong...at age of 47+, many things do change...as compared to the time when i was a boy. gone were the days when we could simply swim in the paddy field or did some somersault over into the tali ayer or channel. now if you dare, leeches would be covering you all over in addition to much more beautiful lintahs...

sayangnya tak banyak gambar yang boleh dijadikan bukti visual yang boleh dikongsikan...bukan tidak ada tapi sebenarnya tidak pernah ada kerana prioriti berbeda antara dulu dan kini...

msba sign-off dulu untuk memberi lalian kepada solat isyak

Greetings and assalamu'alaikum...

it has been nearly four years i last jot something on my own blog...am i restarting to write, i guess it must have been so. my first blog/web page was created in 1996 with site name of UMNO Sungai Betul Atas,,,when this blogging things came into popularity i took to write again in mid 2000's under the banner of Catatan Sungai Betul Atas or CSBA...now after persistent pestering by my little big baby Amelia Adrianna and voluntarily created this repository and she coined the name herself. so, i haven't have any idea what to share yet as my head is a little heavy now...ready to to to bed...

amelia will be 10 in november this year, but special thing about her is the level of thinking capacity, memory, interest on various music and instruments, reading quran with proper tajwid...what else? the only problem is her interest in sleep and rather difficult to wake her up...

i guess i stop for time being...and we see again soon.
