Adios Micheal

Michael Jackson - This is how I want and will always remember him.

It was a shock to me when I heard about his death. I never considered myself a hardcore fan of him but I grew up with his songs during my early childhood in the late 70s and later in my teenage heydays in early 80s, we sang along to his songs especially Beat It, Thriller, Billie Jean. I remembered back then where I had to sneak out of my bedroom middle of the night just to watch his video on tv back then. My parents were very strict then and during my school days I must sleep by 9pm and were not allowed to watch the TV unless all my homework are done. Very regimented huh!
I still find it hard to believe that he is gone..................too soon as matter of fact......just watching the service memorial stirred my emotion so much and I just cried and cried. I cried for him, for his children and for his losses of privacy, understanding, love and care from people surrounding him. I am moved by his songs and the messages that carries with it. None can replace him not even close. Some of us forgets that beneath all the glitz and glamour lies a warm-blooded human being in flesh and blood like the rest of us. You are not strange nor a freak to me. You are what you are and you are very special in your own way.

After watching a few you tubes on MJ and his kids, it was indeed a heart-wrenching sight to see him with his kids. Obviously he wanted to be the perfect father that he never had I suppose.

Just to share one of the many memorable quotes on MJ from Stevie Wonder.

Jackson Memorial Quotes"This is a moment that I wish that I didn't live to see come. But as much as I can say that and mean it, I do know that God is good, and I do know that as much as we may feel — and we do — that we need Michael here with us, God must have needed him far more." — Stevie Wonder

Bahasa Melano Balingian

-
My trip to Miri not only gave me the opportunity to reunite with old friends that I missed dearly but I also took the golden opportunity to learn more about my dad's language. My dad is a Melanau from Kpg Suyong, Balingian. Their melanau dialect differs from the rest of the Melanau dialects from Mukah, Oya, Rejang, Dalat, Matu, Igan & Bintulu. Sad to say that this particular dialect is slowly disappearing. Even my aunt Regina or fondly known as Usu Ina who is married to a melanau from Bintulu is at loss with her own Balingian dialect at times. So far, I've noticed that only my dad, my first cousins Lai & Kak Senah are still speaking this beautiful dialect fluently. Usu Ina converse mostly in the Mukah dialect and I observed that she would refer to Lai if she was not sure of the language itself. My dad and his siblings back in Balingian still converse in their own dialect but once they are out of their kampung, they would converse in the Mukah dialect again. Mmmmmmmmmmm.

Finally, I get to watch Ombak Rindu (OR) with friends last night. So here goes my review on the movie. 1) The scenery is simply fantastic and I just can’t help admiring the beautiful sceneries. It was indeed a sight to behold. So a beach-lover like me definitely enjoys and love all the beautiful sceneries. 2) Loved Hariz’s kampong house…byk modern facilities tapi nang kacaklah rumah ya.. 3) Dari mula sampei abis filem ya, the kitten doesn’t seem to grow up....go figure that out!!!…. 4) As expected some of my favourite scene in the novel was scrapped off especially bab Hariz n Izzah, there are quite a few intimate scenes (those who’ve read the novel knows, yang belum baca, sila beli dan baca k);I guess writer/director chose not to put those in the movies for sensitivity reasons and I think AA would want to think twice before acting certain scenes especially some intimate scenes with MK. 5) The OST was simply superb and the duet song by Hafiz AF7 and Adira AF8 complemented

Thoughts and rambles

It's been a while since my last posting.   Year in year out, I think I have such a boring life.  Initially, when I started this blog, I wanted to be a food blogger and sharing my passion for cooking and baking.  Before the existence of FB, blogging was the thing then.  I thought of trying to be one and yes, the first few years of blogging I was actively blogging, practically about everything. And then some turn in my life affected me so much that I began to drift away for a while.  Pic credit to Google.
