Spreading the Merdeka cheers with the kids in Rumah Nur Salam. 30th August 2009 8.45 pm
Secara kasar, memang ah nampak cam 'bebudak besar' yang semangat menyanyi-nyanyi. Tapi secara halusnya, anak-anak kecil akan mengikut saja yang besar, bukan?
Kepimpinan melalui teladan, my dears. Now you do the maths.
Chill. Kami bukan sengaja ignorant dengan bulan mulia sekarang. This is just us, being us, celebrating us, together with the others who make us, us. Selepas waktu berbuka dan solat Maghrib, of course :)
Ngee. Jumaat malam lepas, Along mengetuai konvoi kecil ke Adam Western, kedai makan hakmilik Tri & Fynn Jamal. Janji untuk berkumpul bersama menyambut ulangtahun Fynn & Min, yang dua-dua lahir di bulan Ogos. Lengkap dengan goodie bags yang disediakan oleh Wani Ardy & Dato' S, we had a little celebration merangkap get-together yang sudah lama dirancang tapi asyik tertangguh-tangguh.
Happy birthday Fynn Jamal & Min Awesome!
Along sayang korang, so plis plis kamu jangan nakal (WTH?!) and go killing me for uploading this video hihi.
And it wouldn't be right if we didn't go crazy for a bit, ignoring and putting behind all the burdens and problems that has been haunting us for awhile, for we thought; why sulk when we have each other?

This is exactly what I meant when I miss the ladies companion during my trip to Bali. Imagine, depan kedai makan pun boleh gegila, Bali would be just another huge studio for us all. I would be a whole lot more attractive, more crazy fun and couldn't care less if there were any competitions between us and yeah, I'm not THAT good at being alone with a guy that much.
But then, that is me. And I'm glad at being me. Again. ;)
I was almost ready to upload one my favorite video from my Sony Handycam involving two of my favorite person when one of the favorite person itu warned that my action would cause disruption to my storyline about the Bali trip and pasti mengundang kontroversi dan gangguan emosi dan dan dan..
ARGH ALONG MALAS NAK START ENTRY BARU ON BALI LAGI. T______T
Tapi my next entry on Bali is one of my favorite moments, I guess. Sebabnya there's where I met Kak Sabrina & Abg Mina yang HAIH KALIAN TATAU BETAPA BERSYUKURNYA ALONG JUMPE DERANG hehehe.
We actually met them both on the day we arrived but since Ikhwan & I didn't have a clue on how big our rooms were, we just said hye hye bye bye and ran along. Kalau tau bilik sorang satu besar gile, we would have invited Kak Rina & Abg Minna to join us, seriously!
On how I now sangat rindukan Kak Rina is because despite I need a female companion to talk to during the trip (INGAT BEST KE DIKELILINGI LELAKI JE? -_-"), Kak Rina doesn't leave me alone terkontang-kanting despite I was with a celebrity.
Unlike some other fans we've met, but that's another story altogether. Hihi.
And the best thing was when we found out our birth dates are just next to each other je!
Ikhwan is on the 6th, I'm on the 7th and Kak Rina is on the 8th, semua on October, berderet-deret gila triple Libra babies nye celebration ah kelak!
Er, itu pun kalau celebrate. Ka-lau seh-leb-bret. (Masih trauma haha)
Eh dahlah, I'm off to edit the vids. And continue missing my favorite peoples.
No, no. Bukan dua orang je favorite people Along. Ramai. Ramai sangat. Ngee.
Cuma, Along ni favorite kalian ke tak ha?
*okeh ni soklan memang mintak pelempang pang pang haha*
Yeah, we really had our Sahur at McD this morning. Like, dine-in dan bukan drive thru atau delivery bagai. Sebabnya the night before, we broke fast di luar, maka tiada leftovers. Nak masak baru semata untuk sahur?
Ngee, alasan semata untuk kami bersama-sama. Ayah Ummi yang beriya ajak, anak-anak tak terpikir pun nak sahur di luar.
Comel kan parents Along? :)
And Along memang manja, masih dikejutkan sahur lagi oleh Ummi Ayah. Along memang manja, tapi diluar sedar dirinya.
Along bersuara manja? EUWGHHHHGHHMUNTAHHIJAU. T___T
And Along tak niat menyinggung hati sesiapa dengan status FB Along itu, maafkan Along tau tau.
Sekarang Along nervous sesangat. For today I won't be going back to Seremban. Berbuka bersahur di rumah sewa. Merasa lah berbuka cara kajang pak malau di perantauan, sendiri.
I missed this morning's HotFM Radiopera gara-gara awal masuk office. The past few days, dok berulang Seremban-KJ naik bas, maka dapat ah melayan drama radio neh on my phone. Tetiba hari ni bawak kereta, speeding as always, tersampai sejam awal muahaha. Nak dengar kat ofis? Hahahaharapan ah bila dah mengadap kerja (tipu gile.)!
Motif cerita pasal neh?
Sebab hero drama radiopera neh tak lain tak bukan...
Ngee. Aisyah yang cecomel itu heroinnya, sama chomel cam Along so Along reda ah hahahaTOLONGSEPAKALONGhahaha.
Kot ada yang mengomel cakap Along pilih kasih sebab it's Ikhwan yang jadi hero dan bukan orang lain, Along PEH-DUH-LEEK hape, haha.
Ramai gak yang terlibat in this radiopera, so it was kinda cool cam suara siapa dan siapa everytime watak diperkenalkan.
Watak-watak dalam Macam-macam Cinta (Bukan Sequel) are as follows;
Azlan@Ikhwan Jejaka tampan dan bijak. Dari keluarga miskin. Rajin dan baik hati. (Komen Along - Serious ini watak dia sebenar. KECUALI PART TAMPAN TUH AH)
Intan@Aishah Gadis cantik yang peramah dan happy-go-lucky. Jatuh cinta pada Azlan tetapi buat-buat benci untuk melindungi perasaan sebenar. (Komen Along - Seswaii sangat, dek non!)
Fina@Nadia Teman baik Intan yang hanya ingin mempergunakan apa yang Intan miliki. Gedik dan suka membuat cerita.
Razif@Gambit Adik Intan yang nakal. Mudah terpengaruh dengan rakan serta sering dimanjakan keluarga.
Azni@Leya Kakak kepada Azlan yang terpaksa mengorbankan cita-cita untuk menjaga Azlan. Berkahwin pada usia yang muda dan rasa tidak bahagia dengan kehidupannya. (Komen Along - watak dia ni BEBEEEEEEEL JE hahaha.)
Ehsan@AG Suami kepada Azni yang kelakar dan sentiasa melihat kehidupan melalui sudut yang positif. (Komen Along - suka gile his part, lawak ah AG neh!)
Cik Rini@Farah Diana Tuanpunya restoran tempat Azlan bekerja. Baik hati dan pemurah. Sering membantu Azlan.
Datin Azizah@Tini Ibu kepada Intan yang menyukai Azlan. Sering memanjakan Razif tetapi akhirnya tegas untuk kebaikan Razif
Zizi@Tam Lelaki metrosexual, kawan kepada Intan and Fina

Fara@Fara Fauzana Kawan kolej Azlan
Zura@Azura Kawan kolej Azlan
Ada yang Along tak dengar suara lagi, so stay tuned to Hot FM every Monday till Friday, jam 8.40 am and repeat 3.40 pm.
Kalau miss gak, masuk website and hear it repeats there, tapi lambat ah nak tunggu ;)
Don't miss the 20 episodes of Radiopera Macam Macam Cinta (Bukan Sequel)! KOTKOT LAH DAPAT BERAYA SEKALI DENGAN DERANG, kannnnnn?
Beriya promote neh, kalau Along & Cik Cantik pergi beraya kat Cheras tuh tak dapat duit raya, siap ah pakcik tuh! T___T
Agak agak kalian, Baju raya Along tahun ni warna ape yehhhhhhh?
*gelak penuh makna kalau korang dengar mesti rasa nak sepak haha*
Along takde ah sekeji yang kalian sangkakan, so here goes. *tolak tepi keje sat*
But minus the vids ah, I think kalau collabo dengan vids from pakcik mungkin lagi keren?
Bolehkan pakcik? Bolehkan, kan? KAANNNNNN?!
Kita anggap itu bolehlah, eyh? T_____T
Since kalian dah tengok video in the previous entry (TENGOK TAK WEH?), kalian mungkin dapat some rough ideas on where we went.
So Day 2 saw us going to UC Silver Factory first. Chomel je Anne tinggalkan note, pesan belikan anting-anting there. But pakcik tuh tak beli pun. Sebab, erm, pricey kot. I didn't bought anything there too sebab erm, tak minat? HAHA.
But it was super cool to see how the silver were turned from raw to shiny accessories.
Tak sampai setengah jam kot situ, and we were off to Kintamani right after that. Mau lihat Gunung Berapi Batur!
But along the way, Pak Dedi stopped us by Bali Windhu, a huge souvenir shop yang bagi diskaun dengan sendirinya. Itu yang penting, for I'm bad at bargaining things -_-"
Yeah, pakcik tuh sangat friendly with everybody, boleh plak dia berborak lama dengan customer lain who happens to be Malaysian too. After memborong souvenir (yang Along tak pass-pass lagi pada kalian), he was super nice to buy me Teh Sosro to freshen up.
Yeah yeah yeah. Pujilah dia weh, korang.
Next we continued our journey uphill to Kintamani. It was like driving to the highlands, but jalan yang super kecik and ramai villagers kiri kanan. The weather was getting a bit chilly as we reached the highlands, but in a cooling way. Macam sejuk yang tak payah pakai sweater pun takpe, that kind.
I miss that, somehow. :)
Di Kintamani, ada Gunung Batur, an active volcano yang kali terakhir erupts in the 70's tak salah. We stopped by at Restoran Grand Garuda for a quick lunch, but since we were still full from our breakfast, kiteorang just lepak dalam restoran to enjoy the view.
Our luck, I guess, dapat duduk kat luar restoran tu and enjoy Mount Batur's view. Plus melayan pakcik tuh meroyan kalau dia dapat naik scrambler dia kat kaki gunung Batur, hehe.
Oh this pic above is taken from the Sony CX-100, it detected my smiles when he was recording me blabbering about our next stop. AM SO IN LOVE WITH MY HANDYCAM! ;)
Habes makan ala kadar (suka-suka je nak ala kadar dengan buffet food -_-"), we head back to our mobile and that's where we were surrounded by hogging road sellers yang jual souvenirs.
Kalau kita nak beli, dia bagi certain price. Kalau kita tak layan, dia jual murah gila just to get our attention.
Along jenis yang cepat panik, terus lari masuk kereta haha. Pakcik tuh, katanya dia kesian tengok the ladies, so he bought a few from them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's so su-weet. ;P
Next stop was Tilta Empul, a sacred temple yang ugh, kalau Pak Sudi cerita balik semula, I'm sure I won't remember it again, haha. PENING KOT NAK INGAT HAHA.
Since Bali is known for the Hindu religion, it's a normal sight to see statues and temples di kiri kanan jalan. So it is a must stop for us to see one of the big temples and yeah, learn something from other's people religion :)
Ini bukan belajar,ni camwhore lebeh, haha! So we went inside and got to witness a prayer in session and the holy water point.
Since it's a sacred place,sama macam masjid kita, aurat kita perlu ditutup. And pakcik tuh had to wear a sarong in order to go inside.
I tell ya, time ni memang dapat detect ah Pak Sudi tuh malas layan Along haha. Mana taknya, everytime he speaks in his broken English, Along tak paham and end up kiteorang cakap macam itik ngan ayam! At one stage macam nak bergaduh pun ada. T____T
Bila Along cakap English bebetul dengan dia, dia tak paham lak. Maka pakcik DJ itu to the rescue aa selalunya hahaha.
TAPI SEDIH AH DIPINGGIRKAN. T_____T
Seb baik pakcik tuh sedar kewujudan Along maka dia melayan je ah amik gambar kat sini.
Banyak lagi kiteorang camwhore sini, but layankan di album Facebook Along je la eyh? Nyampah lak tengok muka memasing haha.
After memenuhi ilmu di dada, it was time for Ubud! Sebelum Along datang, ramai dah yang cakap Ubud best and everything, so I was kinda excited gak.
Turns out it was a heaven of trinkets and charms and everything nice! Murah gile babeng sampai lupa Pak Sudi tuh tak geng dengan Along hahahaha!!
Masa ni ah something happened to me, macam kalau diingatkan kembali, mesti sakit hati, mujur pakcik si pemujuk hati setia menemani. Wahaha, malas nak citer, only Farina knows so far!
RASA CAM ARGHHH TAK BLEH BLAH BENCI. But it happened. So cam layankan je pakcik ni bershopping.
He was ultimately friendly dengan orang-orang kat sana, I bet, kalau makcik-makcik tuh ada anak dara mesti dah kahwinkan Ikhwan dengan anak mereka haha.
We were there for almost an hour, tapi pakcik tuh borong pinggan mangkuk bagai adoilah.
Along? Makan pisang sebab sakit hati haha. SENYAP KAU IKHWAN, JANGAN PECAH RAHSIA!
Pak Sudi wanna bring us to watch Kecak Dance but not in Uluwatu, so to kill time, we head to a painting gallery nearby the Kecak Dance area ALAH LUPE PLAK NAMA TEMPAT DIA.
Painting galleries pun macam banyak kat Bali, tapi since Along buta seni, pergi semata je ah. Lucky the owner of the gallery ganteng sekali!
Around 630pm, we head to the Kecak Dance area. Ikhwan cam upset sebab he recommended that I should watch the kecak dance in Uluwatu but later reassured me yang ini as an introduction to me. Next time, katanya, kene pergi Uluwatu. "Awak kene pergi Uluwatu, kene sesangat!Situ kecak yang terbaik!"
BAIK, PAKCIK!
Culik video Ikhwan on Kecak Dance, so that kalian tahu what it is like.
It's a cultural dance yang menceritakan the gods and goddess of Hindu,and what amazed me this dance tak melibatkan sebarang alat muzik at all. Tapi bunyi mantap giler, ade makan-makan api lak haha. It was very interesting, that I HAD to take a picture with the fire eater itu.
And at the end of the show, badan Along bau asap!!
Then we realized we hadn't eaten properly, so off we went to Natrabu Restaurant for our dinner.
Pakcik tuh jumpa lauk kicap, senyap ah kejap. But still sempat layan orang Malaysia yang kebetulan makan situ. That's when I was taken aback with his personality yang ahh, hanya Along je yang tahu rasanya haha!
*muka penuh makna tapi konfem korang rasa nak sepak*
After dinner, it was time to go back. Malam masih muda, but it was getting festive as Indonesia was having their 64th Independence Day the following day, so we just enjoyed the sight on our way back to Nusa Dua. MERIAH!
Sampai hotel, pengsan. Oh sebelum tuh, sempat both of us melapor diri pada Cik Cantik, haha!
So I guess, that's what we did on our second day in Bali. Sehabis detail dah neh, till the next entry yang wallahualam entah bila.
And yeah, Ikhwan. Sependiam-pendiam saya, I really had fun. Awkward but it was total fun! ;)
Remember her, Shahril?
