.: Quote for da day :.

Tanggalkanlah pakaian duka cita dan putus asa,
Lantas pakailah pakaian jihad dgn AKTIF, tanpa MALAS,
Perhalusi kematian sbg satu seni sehingga anda tahu bagaimana menghirupnya apabila tiada jalan lain,
Tanpa ketakutan

Yard sale!


-Welcome to 'not our yard' area-

Today as planned, my house mates & me held the so called 'yard sale'. What? Yard sale? Apa tu? It literally means selling off your belongings for almost up to 100% discount. There are 1st hand, 2nd hand, even 3rd hands things sold here. Sounds exaggerated huh? ^__^ This term not quite familiar among Egyptians and especially Malaysians here.

-Plastic-based things are not cheap as in Malaysia-

Actually this idea started when one of my house mate couldn't return and study to Egypt after the Egyptian's revolution-Malaysians evacuation days. So, we had to pack her belongings and sell whatever possible to bear the cost of cargo of her important things. Ye la, balik hari tu terpaksa bawa 5kg je..

-They too are searching for the 100% discount things I've told ya-

What to do? Teringat cerita Toy Story yg characters dlm tu sgt fobia dan trauma bila dgr 'Yard sale'. Suppose this Yard Sale held in yard, but its hard to hold such event here, as the condition of streets and houses begitu tidak mengizinkan. Jadi, kami hanya men'display'kan barang2 di dlm bilik sahaja. No worries, bilik tu besar~ ^__^

About 7am, people started to come, picking what they want, what they need, plus get them with much much low prices! I was glad to see their faces, blooming in satisfactions.

-Bekaih duit-

We enjoyed packing her things, weighing whether to post them, sell them or just give them away, labeling the prices, collecting and arrange them. Sometimes it was hard to decide their prices! Ada ke org nk beli? Ok x harga ni? Kita bagi je lah, x boleh? But it was fun though. It was our new experience.

-Tinggal 1/6 drp total hangers-

In between time that no one comes, I sat down and pondered. This is just like when you are parting from this world, going to hereafter. Nothing left except your amal, your knowledges, and prayers from your righteous children. Bila ditanya kenapa jual barang-barang dia? Saya jawab, nk beli pun.. kebanyakan barang kami dah ada. Lagipun, lg 2 tahun dah nak balik Mesia, buat apa nk beli almari n katil bagai kn? Macam tulah kehidupan dunia. Kita dah nk dipanggil pulang, perlu apa lg mengaut keuntungan dunia?

-Almari 3 pintu, asam, KOPIKO & MILO 3in1 pun ada-

Alhamdulillah, let us call it a day. We had collected 1/2 of the expenses for the cargo fees. Another 1/2 to go. Pray for us.

Rabbuna yusahhilna~ :)


p/s: We had an unexpected holiday. 4 days in a row! ^___^ Ok, sila study~

Kuasa cinta



Hari ini saya dihambat rasa bersalah yg teramat. Semalam tidur lewat gara-gara menonton filem- Ghajini. Ingin menghilangkan ngantuk, niat asalnya. -___-! Sudah lama tidak menonton filem hindustan, jadi terlupa yg panjang filemnya mencecah 3 jam! Seperti juga buku, saya semestinya memilih genre filem tertentu. Action movies, mysterious, medical, hilarious, base on true stories and on top of all, I love when they have something to be ponder about. So I just want to share about it here.


-Recommended by my Jr-

Tajuk filem ini pendek, tapi mengandungi makna tersirat. Selepas selesai menontonnya barulah terasa betapa bijaknya pembikin filem ini memilih tajuk. Dibintangi Aamir Khan sebagai Sanjay Singhania, seorang pemilik perniagaan telekomunikasi tersohor. Menghidap penyakit anterograde amnesia, sejenis penyakit hilang memori terbaru. Daya ingatannya hanya bertahan selama 15 minit akibat dipukul keras di kepala. Hanya memori tentang pembunuhan tunangnya oleh Ghajini di depan matanya sahaja yg terpahat kukuh dalam kotak ingatannya. Dia nekad mahu membunuh Gajini dgn tangannya sendiri.

Demi meneruskan misi hidupnya, Sanjay terpaksa melakar tatu pelbagai nama dan nombor2 penting di tubuhnya, menangkap gambar apartmentnya, menulis nota-nota dan menampalnya di setiap inci rumah gara-gara dia akan lupa setiap perkara sejurus selepas 15 minit dan pabila dia bangun dari tidur!

Seorang pelajar perubatan tahun akhir, Sunita tertarik utk menjadikan kes Sanjay sebagai subjek projeknya, namun dibantah oleh professornya kerana kes ini adalah kes polis. Sunita nekad menyiasatnya sendiri.

Kesimpulan saya setelah menghabiskan 3 jam menonton cerita ini:

1. Cinta adalah kata kerja. It gives strength and shall drives you crazy. Kuatnya kuasa cinta!

2. Dunia tidak pernah adil. Sebab itu Akhirat sana adalah pengadilannya.

3. Bersyukur dgn keupayaan ingatan yg Allah berikan. Banyak lagi yg perlu di syukurkan. Kurangkan rungutan, tingkatkan amalan!

4. Perkahwinan adalah sebaik-baik dan semulia-mulia jalan.

5. Kesempitan hidup menyebabkan yg miskin terus menerus ditindas, dan yg berkuasa terus menerus menindas!

6. Organ & human trading mmg tidak boleh dimaafkan!

7. Ikhlas itu menyentuh hati-hati.



Siapakah Gajini? Mengapakah Sanjay nekad mahu membunuhnya? Apa kesudahan cerita ini?
