Alfatihah

I lost a friend yesterday morning, we were not close before but I know her from my ITM days. We occasionally bumped into each other, we smiled and exchange our hi's and hellos. We stayed in the same hostel and would always see each other in the toilet wbile doing our washing etc. She was a beautiful girl then though quite skinny but she has beautiful smiling eyes.Met her again when I was working at the bank, she was doing sales for one of the local hotels then. That was the last I saw of her. Her name popped up again a few years later when a friend and my sister mentioned about her. She was doing unit trust then. And then the last time was yesterday morning. My sister called me and told me that she passed away early yesterday caught me by surprise. She was going to be 42 this coming November, a month older than me. Allah lebih menyayangi mu Su. Moga rohmu dicucuri rahmat hendaknya. Alfatihah.


And this morning I received an sms that was quite disturbing and worries me. A friend who is apparently very sick shared with me her fears. I cried for a while after reading her sms and immediately called another friend who was very close to her before.

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.
