why do some people claim credit for something they don't do?
*shrugs*
let's just say this ...
when it all started...I mean the dikir barat...nobody wants to touch it...
people think it won't make it...
I laid my head on the chopping board ...
and look what a tremendous success it's reaping now....
and then wham! everyone wants a part of it...and claims credit...
be it the children who were the pioneers ...
the parents who had a hand in it these days...
everyone...
ok I admit..I want recognition...
who doesnt?
Don't try to kid yourself into saying you do things sincerely...
even a healthy human being needs vitamins...
Recognition=motivation
I want that!
YES I WANT RECOGNITION!
You wanna claim credit for things you think you do?
well go ahead...
I will walk away and wash my hands off this
...and before I go...
I'll say this...
You're an absolute ass!
and fyi...I mean ass as in mule!
You rip my hard work...I'll rip you apart!

ok many pictures to upload...
let's start from sunday...
our family meaning my side + Mamu Jamal's family went hari rayaing together...
it's been a long long time since we went out as two families...looks like it's growing in numbers...most of us have got married...and all have at least one child except for us ...two more on the way...and siddiq and firdaus have really grown up...in a few years they too will be with partners and that completes the two families...
we, the six cousins have been close since god knows when...we went everywhere together...me and farouk are of the same age...murni and rahim are one year apart...and siddiq and firdaus a few years apart. We fought, got back together...teased endlessly and of course bullied each other. Most importantly, I remembered the incessant joking and clowning around...The big bully and ah-chong was Farouk...and our targets were Firdaus and Siddiq coz they were the youngest. I remebered the times we went Puncak when all of us , i mean 5 of us got really sick and Rahim was the only one who was ok coz he wiped his corn with tissue! We went for holidays together and when our parents went for haj...the other set of parents will be there for us...we were so close that we were like brothers and sisters rather than cuzzins. Now. it's different. We have additions and not only we grew in numbers...we grew in size...look at the heavyweights!
well there you have it...the Khan Surattee clan of Jamal and Kasim!do check out more pics in my links!

On a happier note...
Did I mention I love my Dikir Barat team... the boys without mention r superb!
The girls...hmmm I was sceptical of how they would turn out the first time...
BUT
they are really a dedicated team...they r good...after a few practices...they really make me smile...
They are so DEDICATED...and so capable...I was wrong in thinking they could not achieve what the boys did...
to the girls who came today even though it was a holiday for us, ASHIKIN, HADIRAH, SHABRINA, ALLYSHAH, MUFIIDAH, NABILAH, HAFNI, HUMAIRAH, AFIQAH, HAMIDAH, AMALINA, SABRINA, ROS, SITI, anymore I forgot? oh yeah the girl who never forgets my bday...SHAHIRAH!sorry ah chegu terlupa...

Why can't people just get along
What a world it would be...
We are perfectly capable of getting along with each other...
but some just choose not to treasure relationships...
The young misinterpret the old
Friends backstab and treat each other like shit
Marriages break up
Children and parents disown each other
Bush and Saddam go to war
Mahathir and Badawi at loggerheads
Nicole and Paris in a catfight
Awie and Arni divorce
the world is really topsy turvy!
Where have all the values of treasuring a relationship gone?
YOU may act civil and all but behind your loved ones, it's a different story...
With me, you act all cutesy and demure...but what a monster you have turned to...
Avoid me? Well...not so fast...I will haunt u till I get it right...
C'mon everyone knows what you are up to and we are darned pissed with YOU!
Those who choose to ignore will definitely be damned!

GEMS
1) I really wanted to eat this Nasi Ayam Penyet sold in the temporary Geylang Serai market. The last time I went there...I was disappointed coz when it reached my turn...it was sold out...today I tried my luck again...BUT...the service sux...it's at this shop KURNIA...I've seen many people lining up so I guess the food must be fantabulous...well I dunno I'll try it for sahur...but all I can say this lady at the forefront of the shop...she's damn rude! She sniggered when I asked her this is Ayam Penyet right...come on it's not my first time to eat the Nasi Ayam Penyet...I tasted it at Resto Surabaya...all I can say...it is good coz it has tauhu and tempeh...yum yum my favourite! But this KURNIA shop sells this thing that looks exactly like Chicken rice except that the man stomps the chicken with this weird looking tool! Come on that's not ayam Penyet! I swear I am not going to this stall anymore...the first time she didnt even have the cheek to tell us that the dish was sold out even though it was nearing buka...she just pretended she still had many to go...all of us in line were so frustrated! then now...she sniggered....this is what I call bad service...i was so pissed I felt like throwing the styrofoam box in front of her stall...but patience...it's puasa... I just have to see whether it is really that delicious this morning...BUT it's a no for me...I am not gonna patronize that damn stall anymore!
2) We were sitting at this table...my mum in law asked this cleaning lady to wipe her side of the table coz it was wet with spilled soup left by the previous customer...guess what...she gave my mum in law this look and started raising her voice... I have nothing against the cleaning lady...but I think that's rude...my mum just asked her NICELY to wipe...and she complained...it's her duty right? she was paid to do it! My mum in law even thanked her...I was angry and I felt like answering but I kept quiet coz it's not the day I pick up fights over such trivial things...
Just my two cents' worth on the bad customer service of the Geylang Serai market... a place I love to go...

"We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful what we pretend to be."
Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
It tickles me all the time to watch an idiot babble and babble and wham! this idiot gets shuts up by me!
I did that recently. This 'being' went on saying about what I should do and what is the right way to go about doing it. Well did I mention I do things my way and not by YOUR way? I let this 'being' went on and on and after SOME TIME, i told this 'being' it's all done my way and this 'being' should know what is going on before judging. Being a mule, this 'being' still continued...I got so pissed that I told 'it' to shut the crap up and put its hearing to good use. Well it worked, this 'being' just stopped and was speechless. I don't care a damn who u r, if I think I am right I AM! No use trying to change my beliefs coz yes I do keep my mouth shut and listens but I don't waver in my stand if I know what I am doing. Well enuff about egoists...
This week....I would say I've become a zombie. I need a break from school. If my husband reads this...darling I want to stay at home and be a tai-tai, please handsome please! Well actually, my hubby told me to get a well-deserved break and be a homemaker. The idea attracts me ....wake up late...cleans the house...cooks and wait for my hubby to return every evening. I don't need to worry about rankings, my performance bonus, about sucking up, about pleasing big headed monsters and most importantly about doing everything to live up to THEIR expectations.
Everytime I think about abandoning my career, I think of my children. I truly love teaching. It's my passion. It's the other things besides being in the classrooms that drags me down. I love my classrooms and the people in it but I hate the other rooms associated with it.
Adults unlike children are complicated beings. I meet many kinds of them. The cocky ones who think they are the best, the stuck up ones who think people have to kiss their feet and the super bitchy ones who think they can get away with murder. Well, I don't want to metamorphose to being a devil in human's clothing.
I still want my simple life and I want to be happy. I am happy when I am with my families, friends and children. All the beings, I don't owe them anything and I don't give a shit! Sorry, it just ain't me to step on my loved ones to get ahead.
I need to recharge and at this moment, I will look for IT!

not been blogging for a long time...
MY UPS AND SMILES
- Children's Day - managed to give ALL my classes something no matter how small the gifts were. My P5s got the special ones. I love their class so much... did a vidz for them... told them what I wanted to say
- This week PSLE week! ok I'm done with these kids soon. They will be crossing their first hurdle in life soon!
- We've booked our Dec holidays. We are going Phuket. Our second time, this time it will be with my family. Looking forward to it... Family holidays are so much fun. more updates later!
- Sent a few smses to my long forgotten friends. Made a pact to meet after the fasting month. It's good to know my friends are still there. Siti Asnah, Suriyanti, Heryani and Munirah, friends from different phases of my life...
MY DOWNS AND FROWNS
- My uncle passed away in his sleep this morning. I got the news during sahur. We meaning my papa, my mummy and my bro and myself went to JB at about 7. Najib can't send me coz he has work and leave can't be granted at this point. We had to take a cab. So sad... my aunties were saying... one down few more to go... very morbid but still the though shudders me ... Events like this makes me reflect on death and how our life is so fragile. I think about my own life and at this point, I am not prepared.
- My P6 kids have disappoint me again and again. I am at my wit's end. I give up!
- My TMA...it sux! Been getting disappointing scores and I'm beginning to get depressed over this. I even wrote an email to my tutor and told him I am very disappointed with the marks I have been getting. I worked real hard for the 2 TMAs! I was telling my hubby I am beginning to feel the stress to succeed and live up to MY expectations. I need help, Mr Burge!
That's all I have at this moment. Been so busy with things and getting stressed for small things. I need to get a grip!
