Hanya Tentang Dhia & Zikir

Picture credit to tonton.com.my & Tentang Dhia Fanpage   Abis suda!!!...What a tragic ending to Tentang Dhia. So from the trending of Tentang Dhia, the whole of Malaysia(err, Singapore and Brunei too I guess) were glued to their tv watching the finale episod a while ago. ***sniff***sniff***sniff***sob***sob***sob**** the sad effect is still lingering on me now. I had in a way expected that the ending to be so but what I was really interested was to see what would happen to the evil mother-in-law or appropriately I should label her as monster-in-law from hell. I hate Ku Salmi so much. I was very frustrated that her character was left untouched and I am fuming with anger that Ku Salmi's character was not expanded further. I would love to see what her reaction was when Zikir found out about all her evil doings, and when both Zikir and Dhia died. I would have imagined that the director should have gotten Ku Salmi to get some kind of punishments afterall the bomoh thingy sh

oooo En Haris......Izzah............Ombak Rindu

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

Nothing much but am glad it's Friday. Celebrating my birthday with colleagues in the office, I made this kacang pool using baked bean. Can't find any canned broad beans here so based on the recipe from Along I am missing some old2 friends at the moment. Funny thing, both of them are in facebook but none seem to respond to my inbox messages,..I have this funny feeling that both are giving me the cold shoulders. Entahla...I've known them since school days and back in university but I just can't figured out why. Am  very sad as both were very closed to me then and we shared a lot of things be it our sorrows or happiness.   Probably they have some problems but honestly it would be nice if both would reply to one of my many2, messages....**** sigh**** Am I asking too much?  Kadang2 ada rasa nak nanyak but I have not found any courage to do that yet. KIV jak lah niat ya dolok.... Mengong mode on:...  

Favourite ucapan dari drama Tentang Dhia....

‎'Abang,Dhia cintakan abang'..'Abang pun cintakan Dhia sangat2.Dhia yang pertama dan terakhir'. 'Dhia, abang tak tahu apa akan jadi esok, minggu depan, bulan depan, tahun depan ataupun 10 tahun kemudian.. Abg tak boleh ramal nasib kita berdua... Tapi sebagai seorang suami yang bertanggungjawab, abang akan berikan cinta abang, hati abang, seluruh jiwa abang pada Dhia. Dan yang penting sekali abang akan membahagiakan Dhia seumur hidup abang..Abang janji...' Zaman bergerek aka bila masih sayang, gialah rupanya kan... kalau nak call bila2 boleh, dah jadi laki bini...kenak marah pun ada..waaa....donia...(just responding to this yt jak....kan masih angol tok...hehehe) Angol mode on, so harap maklum and abaikan ajak entry lalek tokk.

Fruit Tartlets Mini Chicken Quiche Yours truly and the ladies. My facebook is full of good wishes today. So here are some pictures of my cosy celebration with sis Sue n sis Djen.  We had lunch at one of the cafeterias around campus only. . Thank you for the cakes ladies. Terasa macam kanak2 riang jak diberik surprise gia. Anyway lovely darlings...thanks a zillion. Moga kita semua murah rezeki dan panjang umur to celebrate this kind of special.   It has been a long and winding journey throughout this 43 years.  Life has not been easy sometimes but I am thankful because I have families and lovely friends that I could count on whenever I need one.  I had my ups and downs with my personal life, in times of heartbreak and frustration I can always count on Mbok for her ears and shoulder to cry on.  I love you Mbok. On the family side, my mum and my sister Mona has been the strong pillar for me to carry on and move with life. My mum is my source of patienc

It's Monday already...mmmmm. Weekend has been fun, first me n Sue celebrated Djen's birthday, not that kind of fancy celebration tho but cosy enough for the three of us ..... Dear sis Djen is like a sister to both of us and she would consult either one of us for any kind of advises when she needs any. So for her birthday I decided to try one an old recipe that I found in one of mum's old magazines. So far, I've tried a few chocolate cake recipes but I can't decide any to be my favourite yet. The least of course is the one using vegetable oil instead of butter, ..personally I prefer a fruitless cake to use butter instead of oil...I would only eat a small piece cos I just couldn't accept chocolate cake with oil in it. I would go ewewewe all over. Ok back to Djen's birthday cake, I did a simple decoration only.  Am no professional when it comes to that but I used to watch mum did all the buttercream icing when I was little. Those days there were no bak

To watch or not to watch

Talking about December it seems that everyone (almost la kot?) is talking about Ombak Rindu the movie...me?..am not that excited though I've read the novel countlessly. I just love the whole story and the novel is indeed a tear-jerker but I have second thoughts about the movie though, of course temptation wise I would want to watch it cos Aaron Aziz is the hero. But I'm scared?...scared?.pelik kan?..takut?..apa nak ditakutkan nanga wayang OR. I have a knack of expecting the movie to be 100% as in the novel..that is ridiculous of course, yaaaaaaa but I can't help it. Mbok is nagging me to watch the movie this weekend and I have not given her any responses yet. I have yet to watch Happy Feet, Puss in Boots and Twilight: Breaking Dawn ...***sigh***...so which is which now...ine meeny miney mo... Picture credit of Official Homepage of Ombak Rindu

Gambar dari Mr Google Sebenarnya awal pagi dah dikejutkan dengan gambar pernikahan pasangan yang boleh dikatakan rapat dengan aku & N. Honestly, I just can't figure out my exact feelings when I saw their wedding photos which I saw in my friend's facebook. Nak marah?..mmmm..nope...kecik ati?...nahi, nahi, nahi...but aku doakan kalian berbahagia hendaknya, moga dimurahkan rezeki dan dirahmati Allah sentiasa. Sebenarnya this couple assumed that both of us(me & N) did not know about their complicated relationship. And the funny thing is some of their friends assumed the same. We knew about the whole complicated things from N's sister who are closed to all parties involved with their 'secret'. Unfortunately that "secret" had destroyed their relationship (all parties involved except for me and N).  And from what I understand from N's sister, seems that all of them are suspicious of each other and occasionally if they happen to bump into e

Picture credit to Nur Kasih's fb. When I told a friend that I would be representing my faculty for this event, she was giving me that "you-must-be-joking look"..aik...ko biar betul...you of all the people, nak berkayak!!!...that was her comment while still giving me that look. LOL!!  It was certainly tickling to look at her. I was not offended at all though...she meant good but I can't blame her too...I for one have never gotten myself involved in any kind of activities like this not even during school days. And,..come to think of it, zaman2 school dolok ney ada aktiviti kedak ya....but I used to tag along my dad when he goes fishing...but I just stayed quietly in the boat and was not allowed to hold the oars. Pathetic sik?!!! As I would be participating in the women's double and mixed double, come the training day, me and my partner(also a first timer though she hails from Kampung Bako), ....we had a blast!!!yesss....a real blast...LOL...first lesson..

Scones

Image
I have a very bad experience with making pastries which uses a rub-in method. Failures after failures of having to make a decent pastry out of this method had sort of freaked me out. However, with some courage I made up my mind and decided to give it a try yesterday. I decided to make scones, I have never tasted the actual scones and after looking and surfing over countless numbers of blogs and websites, at last I tried this simple scones which I found from Taste.com So here's my first ever scones and it was clearly everyone's favourite as the whole tray disappeared within minutes. And I had to make the scones again after that.  The recipe produced about 17 pieces but the first batch was only 12 as I was being very careful with the dough and followed the recipe religiously. And the recipe didn't fail, it turns out better after that, well....practice makes perfect kan...so Mum has requested that I make this again next weekend and she suggested that I add cheese, wah

Mum's curry puff

Image
It has been sometime since mum made curry puff. So when I reached home yesterday I was delighted to see my old time favourite, mum's curry puff. Before I gobble two of it away, I managed to snap a few shots of the curry puff. Nothing special but when it comes to whatever your mum has prepared it is definitely special.Love you mum. Nak story la sikit, my mum used to make loads of this curry puff plus other kuihs as we were staying in a police quarters then, normally we would set up a table below the house and placed all the kuihs there for sale.  At times she would receive orders from police canteen and I would be given the task to deliver them to the canteen. Well, those were the days.  Nak show-off la sikit the filling, though quite blurry, it's potatoes with dried prawns or sesar as it is known in Sarawak. This is my favourite filling and of course I would prefer to have it mixed with long beans and cilantros..hehehe...demanding kan?!!  And I don't like them wi

Maceh ooiii...kelak merik agik...(sik malu mode on...ahaks!!) Mentang2 dapat fresh strawberries dari Cameron Highlands, pagi-pagi dah enjoy special breakfast.   Konon nak show-off la kemerahan and lusciousness of the strawberry, well..handphone biasa jak kan.. Bali mali from a colleague's holiday ..
