Challenge for the day

A colleague informed that our boss today is moody. Though with a sleepless night I managed to pull it through. It wasn't that hard. I am a team player.

A colleague made fun of me for doing a favour for another colleague. The simplest explanation I gave was today is her day, I do not know when my day will come. With that, she belittled me. Angry but managed to think that this belittling colleague of mine has always been bitter.

A stranger stopped asking me for RM3 for his bus fare back to Nilai. To give or not to give was the question since I can smell his breath. Alcohol. Whatever he did with the RM2 I gave him, I just knew he really needed it.

Stopped to buy coffee, Rm1.80. No change for RM50. I left feeling like the world had her back on me.

A colleague gave me RM2 to buy coffee. I managed to control my tears.

A short day at work with a very good lesson of life.

si buruk yang baik hati

dia datang tepat pada waktunya. berbaju merah menyinarkan lagi kulitnya yang putih melepak itu. nak cepat dia kata. sedang aku membelek kertas kertas itu, aku terdengar dia ketawa. bukan sekali dan bukan juga dua kali.... berkali kali sambil tersenyum dan mengatakan tiada apa yang mengelikan hatinya. aku diam, malas hendak melayan. yang aku tahu, aku ingin segera kembali ke bilik ku dan menonton tv. hari itu, hari malasku... hari yang aku tak ingin melakukan apa apa.

malam tiba, hati aku tertanya tanya. apa yang membuat dia tertawa. rumahku tersergam indah dan bukannya lucu. kolam ikan ku dah dihuni ikan ikan kecil dan itu bukannya lucu. kandang kucingku besar dan selesa dan itu juga bukannya lucu. jadi apa yang membuatkan dia tertawa berkali kali?

aku fikir sejenak. oh barangkali dia ternampak mesin jahit ku terpampang di atas meja. ye lah, aku bukan jenis orang yang menjahit. aku bingung sambil memegang kepalaku... oh ya tak ya, rambut aku ni. besar macam seekor singa. ada yang hendak ke kiri dan ada pula yang hendak ke kanan. tambahan pula, aku di ganggu di hari malas ku. jadi tiada senyuman yang menyusul ketibaan dia....

memang seperti singa yang buruk berbaju besar....
aku pun manusia biasa, ada hari cantik ku dan kadang kadang aku tak terlepas berada di dalam hari buruk ku.
yang penting, aku tahu hati ku tak seburuk rupaku pada hari itu. dia pun tahu.kalau tidak, tidak lah dia datang ke rumah ku hari itu.

happy new year

Yeah sure, 2006 taught me a lot of lessons....

and 2007 welcomed me with two new lessons......

lesson #1 no matter how you think you've tasted scones and crumpets and pink salt first, mothers tasted roti canai and capati and salt first......... mother taught me to change a flat tyre on that fated new year day.....

lesson #2 if you have a flat tyre, change your clothes into something more appealing than probably mothers need not teach you how to change the tyre in the first place..... komar ajiaq!!!!!!

resolution? achieving my previous and previous and previous, ous, ous, ous, ous resolutions.....

happy new year to all.....
