carried away with emotions

Jins Shamsudin, I hate you.
Wa sudah tidak respek sama lu.

Let's just leave it at that.

Story Mory: Metabolisme

I have a friend/colleague. She's petite and athletic. In short, body dia memang lean dan smart....and womanly at the same time....not voluptous type....but with a cute butt. Mind you, she's very athletic....kalau setakat 5km tu, dia lari laju macam pelesit....so we had this conversation one day.....dia tengah mengeluh pasal dia gemuk.

Friend: I gemukla....tengokla muka I ni. Bulat giler...


Me: Apa yang bulat? (Rasa nak cekik je minah ni)


Friend: You have to believe me. I dah gemuk (showing me a not-so-old"kurus"picture of herself).


Me: Kalau you gemuk, I ni apa? I must be overly obese then.


Friend: You takpe. High metabolism.


Me: (I so disbelief this girl)....why do you say so? Sebab I kuat makan, malas exercise, and yet I didn't membesar macam Syanie?


Friend: (looks like she wants to agree)

~sigh...

ni boleh dikira as tribute ke?

For the whole month of October, Astro has been airing old P Ramlee movies through various channels; Ria, Prima, Citra, Warna, Ceria and even History channel...actually sebelum ni pun dekat Prima memang selalu main filem P Ramlee, but this month memang memanjang la cerita P Ramlee sahaja....so, at the little time I spent at home this month, aku memang akan tengokla cerita P Ramlee ni kat TV.....sekali masa 7-9pm....then after that mesti tertido depan TV then woke up to see another P Ramlee movie playing tengah-tengah malam which ends at 2.45am....sanggup tengok tu...ada sekali tengok "Anakku Sazali", went to sleep and had a very sad dream sampai menangis teresak-esak dalam tidur.....saya memang minat cerita P Ramlee y'all....back during the days of no pirated VCDs, kat rumah saya we have an almost complete collection of original P Ramlee's VCDs.....huhu

Anyway, malam ni is like the finale for the P Ramlee month kot....kat Astro Ria tayang Konsert Di Manakan Ku Cari Ganti and kat Astro Citra (yang ni korang kena langgan la kalo nak) diorang tayang P Ramlee The Musical.... P Ramlee was born in 1929 and passed away in 1973 at the age of 44 years....muda lagi tu....but I remembered from either TV show or something I read back then that during his last years it was quite sad.....bila tengok balik the musical tu....I learnt that he has to compete against the radio and TV phenomenon, pop yeh-yeh (tiba-tiba rasa benci dengan L Ramlie dan Jeffrydin boleh?) and he was even boo-ed during one of his public performances kat stadium mana entah...Saloma pulak has to sing in night clubs in KL to make ends meet....sedih kan....ada hikmahnya Allah menjemput dia pergi lebih awal...it must have been a hard fall for him....he was on top of the world, and suddenly within a span of few years jadi macam tu, kena treat macam apa je....yelah crowd kat Malaysia ni bukan boleh harap sangat....tengokla apa jadi dengan industri muzik and perfileman kita....memang susah nak ada penyokong......P Ramlee, like other genius artistes (macam Van Gogh, Beethoven) lived their lives to a sad ending....bila dah mati baru orang nak mengenang-ngenang.....those titles awarded to him are all awarded post-humously....and I don't know where do the royalties from his songs are going to....anak kandung dia yang boleh diharap, Nasir P Ramlee dah meninggal and si Sazali pulak adalah buruh DBKL (if I'm not mistaken)...

Anyway, this is the last song that P Ramlee wrote.....sedeyyy woooo.....I'm putting the lyrics in here....nak dengar lagunya, just google or find it at YouTube.....fikiran saya terganggu selepas dengar lagu itu and hence gigih mencari charger laptop so that I can google it up and write about it.....

Air Mata di Kuala Lumpur

Airmata di Kuala Lumpur
Jatuh berkecai hancur berderai

Putus kasih yang tak ku duga

Dikau pergi tak tinggal pesan

Hancur musnah impian mulia

Istana ku bina menjadi pusara

Gelaplah pasti masa hadapan

Jiwaku merayau utara dan selatan

Hidup sudah tiada beerti

Zahirku hidup hai batinku mati

Remuk redam hatiku hancur

Airmata di Kuala Lumpur

Oh sedihnya..... Al-Fatihah.

he says, I say

He said, "Don't make me choose between my ambition and you. I will surely choose my ambition."

and I was thinking to myself, "Since you said that, I won't even let you ask me to choose between my friends & family and you. I will surely choose friends & family."

Pffftt.

There are things that you can compromise. Some not.

Some things are just not worth to give in for.

I'm going to save myself a whole lot of time and energy.

Period.
