What Do You Think Of This Poem?

Eventually, this poem had caught my eyes... Very interesting... Just something that I would like to share... Well according to the writer, it's just a satirical poem that jabs at the vexations of our society... Maybe some of you out there might find it offensive... Well, I don't know... As for me, I'm pretty OK with it... What about you people? What do you think?

My Minah Wife

I was relaxing one corner
When I spot a hot chick from far
I smiled and passed her my number
My love story starts with Minah

Minah's a girl I barely knew
But one bad day I strayed a shot
Within the weeks her tummy grew
So off we went to tie the knot

Wanted a wedding by the block
But Minah's mum said, "So low class?"
"I want grand music and a jock"
"And make sure the venue's five stars!"

Hotel banquets and high dowry
Just so that others will envy
My credit card runs on empty
But hell, at least Minah's happy

When minahs be somebody's wife
They keep no watch on their damn rice
Barely a year of blissful life
My dearest mate grew twice her size

One day she said "House feels empty!"
"Did you not promise a good life?"
"I want a big Plasma TV"
So owe to Courts husband and wife

Then Minah grew fat and lazy
She starts a craving for a car
One day she marched up right to me
"Sayang, I want a Toyota!"

But I tell her I've cash no more
My bank account's right to the floor
She said, "Sayang, we can borrow"
"Installment plans, cash down zero!"

Minah is now proud and happy
With lots to show off to her friends
But they know not the reality
We're hanging on to our wits' ends

My minah wife now makes me low
With nothing more left to adore
A husband joy turns to sorrow
Fret not, I've got space for three more :)

Nice Weekend & Happy Birthday 3rd Bro In-Law, Yus...

Our mini little family went on a little shopping trip to Mustafa Centre last Friday... Since we both, parents aren't working on weekends, so yup, why not do a little shopping spree till wee morning and sacrifice some of our sleeping time... Anyway, it's been a while since we last been there...

The next day, hubby was on his National Reservist... I stayed the whole entire day at the crib... Did the laundry, watched TV, played with the babies and my pet cat, house cleaning bla bla bla... Thought of bringing the babies out for a walk but nah, I ended up spending the whole entire day at home...

Sunday, was the day that we were invited to hubby's close friend's (Deen and Md Nor) wedding... Well you see, Deen and Md Nor (both brothers) were our ex-school mates during our secondary school years... We met up with the rest of hubby's old time friends (Fadzli, Anuar, Chiko and there's another guy whom I can't quite recall his name)... Sharol (another one of our ex-secondary school mates) came with his wife, Juli and son, Iman... All of us sat at the same table... I tell you, the wedding venue, was full of people... I might say the place was pretty crampy and to top it all off, it was a freaking HOT SUNDAY AFTERNOON... Gosh!! My babies were getting all sweaty and agitated... Asyura was crying her lungs out... Asil on the other hand kept on asking to be carried... We had to juggle the babies plus our food and everything... Took some pictures with the newly weds... Teased and laughed... I sat and began to ponder... All of us, we were friends during our school days and now, each one of us went on our separate ways to pursue our own path, fell in love and got married... Memories of the good old school days... Yes, they are still fresh in my mind...

We left the venue at about 4 plus in the late afternoon... Went to the Giant Tampines Hypermarket... Did some grocery shopping before taking a little stroll at Pasir Ris Park...

Had a late supper again at home and this time, I did the cooking... I made boiled broccolis, scramble eggs in milk sauce plus breaded chicken breast... Yummy!! Actually kan, I should cut down on this late supper thingy coz it's really not helping me to lose weight... Must try to control myself with all this deliciously tasty food... hee hee...

OK... Before I end my entry for today... I have a little birthday poem for my 3rd bro in-law who's celebrating his 36th birthday today with his dearest wife, Muz... Hee hee... So romantic gitu kan? Kan? Kan? I'm actually not use to much talking with all 4 of my brother in-law... Tak tahu la kenape but from the first time I met them, I just don't talk that much to them... I only make it a habit to talk whenever it's necessary... Funny thing is I'm pretty much jovial and friendly whenever I hang around with their wives... Well, except for one of them though, coz sorry to say this but, I find her a bit of a brag, show-off and someone who likes to demoralise others... pfft... This type of person is seriously NOT MY CUP OF TEA and normally, I don't give a hoot to this type of people... I would just stay away from them...

So to my 3rd bro in-law, Yuz: Selamat Menyambot Hari Lahir Yang Ke 36... A year older and a year wiser... Yes? Semoge ape yang anda doa akan dimakbolkan oleh Allah swt. Amin... Both Rizal and I know what is it that both you and your wife truly need in your life right now... We know...

Life’s Journey

It only happens once each year,
Book the train and pack your gear.
Your destination seems unknown,
As you sit there, all alone.

Something internal, in a rush,
Just like the toilet, we usually flush.
Constantly staring at the clock,
Are you waiting for your flock?

Savour the moment, don’t wait for the end,
Nobody knows, if you may extend.
Journey divided into equal parts,
Today is another, we’ll add to the charts.

Your train has left, from the town of birth,
Hopefully located, on planet earth.
The next stop, might seem the same,
It shall reveal, what you became.

Happy Birthday Bro!! Insya'allah, we will pray for you too... It's just a matter of time... Have faith and never give up hope OK... ;)

OK... SLIDE uploaded...

Huzainie: (www.venture-eragroup.com/sg/home.html) Wah!! Smangat "entreprenuer" la adek aku ni... OK roger!! I'll check it out... Thanks for the info ya... =)

Lalaa: About the chalet... Yup that's what the mom told me... 14.03.09 until 16.03.09... And becoz of that, they told me to apply leave sebab takde orang nak jage anak2 aku kalau dorang gi chalet nanti... pfft...

Hilariously Funny...

This post was written by one of my fellow bloggers... I pretty much laughed my lungs out (coz it reminds me of my hubby and his habit while driving the car) when I read her recent blog entry. It was hilarious!! So this was what she wrote...

Driving Style (by Kak Junita @ Monster Mom)

I can’t understand why some men like to drive with their hand/arm dangling out the window. Is it so cool to drive that way? You could just see their faces as you drive pass them. How does it feel? Good? Maybe these people have BIID (Body Integrity Identity Disorder) syndrome. It’s a rare condition which compels its sufferers to want to amputate, or paralyze, their own healthy limbs. I think that will be the answer to my question.

I tried it once and it only last two seconds. Sorry to say, it is plain silly. Besides, it’s dangerous. My brain starts throwing all sorts of “What if” questions...

But then again it is not a crime to do that. So, what the heck...

I really wish that I could bring along a ruler/cane/rotan so as to whip those hands as I drive past them. That would be cheeky!!!!

Driving Style...
One hand on steering wheel, one hand out of window. - Sydney
*******
One hand on steering wheel, one hand on horn - Japan
*******
One hand on steering wheel, one hand on newspaper, foot solidly on Accelerator... - Boston
*******
Both hands on steering wheel, eyes shut, both feet on brake, quivering in terror - New York
*******
Both hands in air, gesturing, both feet on accelerator, head turned to talk to someone in back seat - Italy
*******
One hand on horn,
One hand on holding gear,
One ear listening to loud music,
One ear on cell phone,
One foot on accelerator,
One foot on clutch,
Nothing on break,
Eyes on females in next car,"THIS IS INDIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

Gosh!! How I Miss Blogging...

Salam people!!

Blogging at last!! Woo hoo!! I miss my blog... I miss telling stories... I miss my fellow bloggers... I miss reading their blog entries and leaving them with my comments... I miss everything!! Arggggggh!! Lame betol aku tak masok blog... Been so uptight with work and family... So very freaking UPTIGHT!!

So what's happening in my life lately? Hmmm... Let me see...

Asil was down with fever for a week recently but he is in the pink of health right now... Asyura on the other hand is doing very well with her baby talks... The hubby had been transferred into another place in his department and, alhamdulillah, it is a good sign... As for me? I've been busy helping and organising this Staff Annual Party 2009 cum 20th Anniversary for the company that I'm working with... Asking for sponsorships that sort of thing plus the usual daily stuffs bla, bla, bla...

I've uploaded some pictures taken during our recent family outing... Nak elaborate banyak2 pon macam long-winded gitu kan... So, korang tengok je la gamba yang aku da upload... :)

We ended up buying a little cute birthday cake for Asyura at the very last minute...

Hubby, "Nak beli kek tak?"

Me, "Beli la... Asyura blom tahu the meaning of blowing a birthday candle but Asil does ape..."

Hubby, "Betol jugak... K la... Skarang jugak kite turon gi beli... But I can't be late coz I've class later in the evening..."

Me, "K la k la..."

So we bought a little Cheese Birthday Cake for her... Well, I know how much she and her brother Asil, love the taste of cheezie-cheese in their mouths...

Had a little birthday celebration with the dad coz his birthday is like 4 days away from Asyura's (24.02.09)... So why not do it together? The more, the merrier kan?

Happy 1st Birthday Adek @ Nur Ikramina Asyura...

Nur Ikramina Asyura...

Happy Birthday To You!! Happy Birthday To You!! Happy Birthday!! Happy Birthday!! Happy Birthday To You!!

Selamat Menyambot Ulang Tahon Yang Pertame Buat Anak Kecil ku, Nur Ikramina Asyura...

A message to my little daughter (at her age now, she might not be able understand but as she grow and starts learning in school, she (and her big brother) will have the privilege of going into my blog and be able to read its content...) :-

I always pray that both you and your brother would grow up to be filial children. I don't expect the both of you to shower your Ummi and Baba with worldly pleasures in order to please us... But there's one thing that we would like to ask from the both of you - your love towards us, parents...

It would make our days worthwhile knowing that we have to good children who treat us as bestfriends, share problems and point of views with us, spend quality time with us and most importantly, children who appreciates and understand the true meaning of cherishing bitter sweet memories together in a family...

We don't need you or your Abang to shower us with gifts... But what we want is for the both of you to appreciate us as parents, who try our very best to bring the both of you up walau macamane susah sekalipon...

Our hearts would break, if one day, you both were to neglect us as we grow older and who knows, maybe senile (Insya'allah, I will always pray for the goodness in our family... Amin)...

Whatever circumstances it maybe, Nur Ikramina Asyura and Muhamad Isyraq Asil, you both will always be the sweet and adorable pair of apples in our eyes... Love you both a lot!! Mmmmmuah!!

OK, before I go all teary any moment now, I think it's best if I start my birthday poem for my little birthday girl... So little Asyura (if you're reading this in a few years to come), here's a little poem dedicated especially on your 1st birthday... Be mommy & daddy's good girl OK... Oh!! And Abang Asil too!! Be our great hero in the family and do us proud both of you!! Jadilah anak2 yang mithali... Insya'allah... Amin...


A poem for my little baby girl...

Come back into the fold of my protective wings.
Let not your spirit be restless for you are here with me.

I will always be your one on which to lean, your rock, your number one fan.
Fear not child to speak your mind.

Undo the wrongs of the day and together we'll make them right.
Speak of heartaches so that they may be subdued.

Share your joys so that they may be my joys too.
Always know that I am with you for you are my precious gift from Allah.

I will always love you and keep you safe from life's hardships.
I will cushion your bumps and tend to your scrapes.

I will guide you tenderly; Your brilliant eyes will always be my sun
Share with me your heart and I with you.

I love you...

Love, Ummi...

To Amsis: Seriously... lol... I think my pet fish needs a girlfriend la... He doesn't swim actively in its new home eversince yesterday... Perhaps a girly-girl BETA fish would cheer him up... hee hee...

To Shopaholic Mama: Actually kan, I have a habit of shopping on impulse... So bile nampak the cousins tengah shiok borong ikan, kite pon ape lagi... Tersampok jugak la memborong ikan jugak... hee hee...

To Huzainie: Yeah! You're definitely super duper blog-lagging... lol... And good luck on your gradings and stuffs... "Chiong" all the way la lu!! By the way, kau nak Mak Ude urot lengan kau yang nak dekat tercabot to tak? lol...

Hanging Out With The Cousins...

The mom called me up in the office 2 days ago, asking me to take a day off for yesterday, as she was not feeling well and due to that, she didn't have the strength to take care of my babies...

So yeah, I took an Urgent Child Leave yesterday and while I'm at home taking care of the babies, the mom went to the Neighbourhood Polyclinic for a visit to see the doctor...

Had a little chat with the cousin (Lala)... She was hoping if I could assist her and her bro (cousin Sufi) in finding a few shops selling aquatic animals and stuffs coz there weren't much choices in her neighbourhood for things like that... I told her that there are a few shops in Yishun and perhaps we could check the place out... So we agreed to meet up in the late afternoon... I brought the babies along with me...

Our 1st stop was Chong Pang Central... There were 2 shops selling aquatic animals and stuffs... The cousin did her "browsing and comparing of prices" while I did my "look around" for anything that interest me... I ended up buying a cute little "Beta" fish container that cost 6 bucks and the anti-chlorine solution for the water at only 2 bucks... Thought of getting myself a "Beta" (commonly known as "fighting fish") fish there but nah... Fighting fish kat Chong Pang sume nye tak menawan dihatiku... (Can't help it la, must try to control myself from shopping on impulse... tsk tsk tsk...)

Next stop was FOOD... Seriously, I was feeling hungry (sebab tak makan since morning)... The babies had already eaten at home... I cooked fish porridge for them to eat... I brought the cousin for a treat at a nearby Hawker Centre... Recommended her the Nasi Ayam Penyet and apparently she likes the food there... hee hee... We bumped into my 1st bro in-law and his wife who were having their late lunch there too...

While eating, the cousin (Sufi) called saying that he's on his way to Yishun... So we decided to meet him at the Yishun Mrt Station before walking towards another shop situated somewhere near the Yishun Interchange... Once there, the 2 cousins did their browsing and stuffs like that while I (as what I did at Chong Pang) looked around for my little "Beta" fish... Then, I saw one... A turquoise colored male "Beta"... Soooooooo "ka-wai-neh" (which means pretty in Japanese)... So without any hesitation, I bought the cute little fish... hee hee... Suke aku...

The cousins were still struggling on the stuffs they should buy... So we ended up going back to Chong Pang Central coz most of the stuffs they wanted were sold there... Sambel jalan patah balek gi Chong Pang tu, I remembered that I've left out something for my little pet fish...

Me (talking to the cousins), "Eh, aku ni da ade ikan dengan fish tank... Aku baru teringat, makanan ikan aku tak beli la... Nanti kite patah balek Chong Pang, aku beli skali la..."

So the cousins were pretty satisfied with the stuffs they bought at Chong Pang and I, on the other hand, got my fish food too... We had dinner while waiting for the hubby to arrive... Hubby pulak da sampai kat Chong Pang tak abes2 nak cari mobilephone baru... So after dinner we went "mobilephone hunting" (Thanks Sufi for helping Abang Rizal out on the mobilephone thingy)... We played a little prank on the hubby that had all of us laughing like crazy all the way while sending the cousins back home... Chilled at their crib for awhile before we headed back home...

Eh La!! Thanks for helping me out with the babies... Kau ade tokoh jadi baby-sitter yang baik... hee hee...

And this morning, I brought along my pet fish to work (together with his fish food and other fish stuffs)... So I'm gonna name him, SOLO... Coz he's all alone, single and available (Female "Beta" fish pet owners, any takers? hee hee...)... And most importantly, he's gonna be accompanying me in the office every single working day of my life... Thought of naming him, TURQUOISE but nah... That name sounds so girl-ish... bleurgh...
