errkkk...geeks

Aku nak gelak la. Biasanya panggilan 'geeks' ni kita bagi kat orang-orang tua...paling tak pun kat budak-budak sekolah yang dah kira besar la kan. Bukan kat budak kecik umur 3 thn! Tapi anak aku yang gigi susu pun tak penuh lagi, dok pakai dyper kehulu kehilir...and sesekali mintak nak minum susu botol sambil kepit selimut busuk dia tu dah macam geeks!

Pergi memane pun PSP tak tinggal...celik mata,bende tu yang dicari dulu..semua jenis game dia main...God of War, Sim Castaway, Ben10 and the latest LEGO Batman,siap buleh main sampai end tu...impress sungguh... 2-3 keping dah memory cards aku kene beli sbb nak topup game2 dia yang gedabak besar kapasiti. Siap bleh jadi cikgu tu,bila we all tak tau nak menang camne..dia siap tolong tunjukkan lagi..hahaha..wah cayalah! Kedai game dekat ngan umah tu dah macam ada share ngan tokeh dia..anak aku siap dapat free cd 2-3 keping kengkadang. Mane taknye..selang 4-5 hari dah merengek nak beli game baru...sebab memory card psp dah penuh and aku dah maleh nak layan beli kad lagi besar,dia umpan suruh beli cd untuk PS2 plak...aishhh..macam2 la budak zaman skang ni. Diaorang ni dah tak main dah macam mase aku kecik2 dulu...konda-kondi ke,baling selipar ke,senapang buah ceri ke..sume nya siber...eksesais jari je..tercabut jari nanti baru tau..hahaha!

Jangan tekejut,bukan orang tua je yang gile game. Budak kecik kalau dah minat...perrrgh..lagi dasat..fanatik..memang la bagus celik IT kan...membina minda..tp anak aku si Amir Hamzah ni dah parah..advance sangat.. :)

Duit duit..di manakah kau duit??

Zaman ekonomi meleset ni memang tinggal kesan yang drastik betul kat semua orang. Ada yang naik gaji, turun gaji, dapat kerja, kene buang kerja,naik pangkat, turun pangkat. Bisnes naik tp ada jugak yang lingkup. Pendek kata, semua bisnesman pun urut dada nak jadi kaya walaupun dah memang kaya. Ye lah, yang kaya bertambah kaya, yang miskin pulak kekal papa. Biar 'pape' asal ber'gaye'..bak kata AR Tompel.

Semua orang sibuk cari alternatif lain untuk dapat extra income selain dari daily fixed income. Seberapa kaya dan berkesannya alternatif tu depend atas usaha dan kreativiti masing-masing. Kalau yang dah memang ada kerja tetap, extra income ni memang banyak gak la membantu untuk kita hidup sedikit mewah dari biase.

Ada yang buat partime habis ofis hour meniaga makanan, xpun subjob bawak teksi..alhamdulilah kalau yang berjaya tu siap bleh beli keta cash dalam masa 6 bulan! Sebelum nk dapat hasilnya, kenela kerja siang malam. Penat skitla badan, silap haribulan boleh sakit oh.

Macam-macam produk di pasaran dan skim dari dalam internet sampai la surat khabar untuk orang ramai join demi menjana duit lebih. So, yang mana satu idaman kalbu? Yang mana satu kita nak buat ni? Dari menjual tudung, minyak wangi, multilevel, biskut raye, kutu pinggan, insuran, produk kesihatan..pendek kata, bersepah la. Tepuk dada, tanya selera. Tp bagi aku, yang penting fokus, komited and sabar. Sebab bukan senang nak jadi kaya. Memang seronok tengok orang jadi kaya. Kita pun ikut, tp hangat-hangat tahi ayam je. Tup tup stop tengah jalan. Habuk pun xde. Buang karan lagi ada.

Tapi ye lah, baik ada dari xde kan? At least mereka ni ada gak idea dan wawasan. Nak jadi bisnesman ni bukan senang. Muke kene tebal, mulut kene xtra ramah. Yelah.. strategi pemasaran percuma la katakan.

Apa2 pun, make sure bende yang kita nak jual tu betul dan x menipu orang lain dah ler. Kang x pasal2 duit haram yg kita dapat tu, dok bagi makan anak bini/laki (maklumlah,skang dah ramai ibu2 yg join cari extra income ni) kat umah. Free2 je x berkat, silap2 jadi sebab keruntuhan akhlak pulak!

Indon Oh Indon


My family and I went for a vacation after quite a while we've been craving, planning, postponing, canceling, delaying it..and at last ..pheww :) Anyway, the three of us went a 5 days trip to Jakarta-Bandung last month. Well.. yeah it's kinda hectic and tiring since the time is limited yet so many places to go to. But thanks to our tourist guide which really helpful during the sight seeing.

We took a morning 2hrs flight to Bandung from LCCT. The weather was cooling, windy and clowdy with no sign of rain about to fall. Perhaps of the higher altitude. First think in mind there was...hungry...I need fooooodddd! We're taken to Kampung Daun,where the rich n famous are believe to dine there all the time...wahhh.
The food was okay. Less similar than what we normally have back in Malaysia. It's just the scenery that I really adore at. So, refreshing..peace and very cosy. We can hangout as long as we want like nobody's business.

Later we head straight to Jakarta. Capital city of Indonesia. Development are pretty much alike. We're complaining about traffic jams and crowded. And we would be bless with it. Cause you dont have any idea of how serious are their congestions..human and vehicles. And it worsen during 'libur'..or peak hours which when everybody on off day. We take a peek of here and there, grab some souveniers from the 'Hard Rock Cafe', a dinner of 'Nasi Mandi' at an Arab restaurant and a dooze off at the end of the day.

The next day we went to Puncak, a high land in between Jakarta and Bandung. Slightly colder than Bandung itself. Where Taman Safari and Tangkuban Parahu situated at. In order to go there was by passing thru housing area which built back to back with small two way path unfortunately just fit for 2 cars and any bigger might as well bump into the houses on the left and right. The safari tour was really fun as we sort of interact with the animal in a very close view. Got to feed, pat and even self picture with them. Tangkuban Parahu was a volcano pit last erupted in the 50's which still producing hot air smell sulphur! If only the damaged bumpy road were being upgraded as it's a great place especially for the tourist. A big bazaar is cramped with people of all kind selling,bargaining for souveniers to grab. But watch out,once we've recognized as an 'outsider'..then bamm! The price will be tremendously outrageous!

Our last day is spent at Bandung. The congested city imposing minimalist kinda hotel built to cater lifestyle. The nightlife there were so alive especially during weekend. You can hear people here and there gather around by your car window as the traffic light's red singing songs and given some pennies for the 'show'. And most of them were just students looking for fun and money was a bonus! And I know, here we'll be arrested for annoying other people and being uncivilised. A thing that really amazed me was how the people there drived vehicles here and there. Making a left and right turning, stopping , u-turn was really a breathtaking moment each time. Everybody were an expert. It made me wonder of what the heck were the rules being created for?! And the best part was, nobody got furious and none accident occured! Amazing..

Bandung is famous with factory outlet stores. It's everywhere in the city. It's like shopping heaven for people who love to shop! The sky is the the limit. We grab few things for us and some for friends back home. Not to overdoing it..trying to avoid tax at the airport..ahaakks. We had dinner at the famous Paris Van Java just to feel the happening nightlife by the local enjoying their food with loud music, jamming pub in an open air crammed in one place.

The next day was time to fly home. It was a pleasent holiday for us. And we wish to do it again to other places perhaps in the future..which yup..lots of planning and postponing will take in place again..but it was fun..really! :)
