Happy Birthday!

Assalamualaikum...

I wanna take this opportunity to wish one of my lil' brothers, Ateh...HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 

Yes, u're a year older~

Tiada apa yang lebih diharapkan oleh seorang abang dari melihat hang menjalani kehidupan remaja ni dengan penuh kesabaran dan akhirnya diikuti dengan kejayaan, lebih-lebih lagi dalam perjuangan with your studies. Make most of your time to explore, meet new people, and experience new things as these will be the foundation on how you will tackle life, and the world subsequently when you finish your studies.

*One interesting fact about him, particularly about his birth date, coincided with the passing of our singing lawyer, Allahyarham Sudirman Hj. Arshad. Masih teringat ketika orang sibuk-sibuk gi rumah Sudirman yang tak jauh dari rumah, aku sekeluarga berangkat ke hospital menyambut new addition to the family.

Njoy ur teenage life, mamat braces =p~

p/s: bday present will come late this time around. Jangan marah. Good luck with your upcoming exams.

Assalamualaikum...

Di masa-masa keadaan menjadi sukar, dan aku mendapati diri terperangkap dan mencari jalan keluar yang xjumpe. Rasa macam susah sangat, penat sangat. Seolah-olah semua jari sedang menunding kepada aku dan aku cuba lari dari kenyataan ini for the sake of running away from the problem. Tidak bijak.


Dan tanpa diminta, berbagai pula soalan membenak dalam kepala. Mengapa yang lain boleh, hidup teratur, maju melangkah, berevolusi, sedangkan aku masih menakuk di ruangan yang sama? Kekadang, moving backward...really. Sedihnya melihat kemajuan yang lain mempamerkan kegembiraan dalam senyuman yang asli serta menari menuruti kebanggaan mereka tapi aku struggling to prove myself to the loved ones, let alone the world!


Di masa yang tenang dan lebih rasional, aku pasti ini tidak lebih dari sekadar hiccups, ketentuan Qada' dan Qadar yang telah tersurat buatku, demi proses kehidupan yang kehadapan, agar aku belajar dari sini, agar aku mengambil antipati dari kepahitan ini menjadi punca kesedaran dan rendah diri tatkala dijulang melangit dan everything is on your side. Really?


Macam lagu U2, 'stuck in the moment'(u can't get out), that could conclude my predicament. Mencari seribu alasan untuk justify apa yang berlaku. 90% bermula denganku, dan 10% lagi ku sandarkan pada persekitaran. Tak mungkin aku sanggup menelan semua pertanggungjawapan ini seorang. Boleh hilang waras! Lemas!

 
Aku mencari dan melihat inspirasi dalam berbagai bentuk dan jenis. Kadang kala semua lagu yang kedengaran berlambangkan jalan hidupku. Hanya kebetulan. Mendengar kenyataan dan luahan hati seseorang yang mirip frustration aku. Hanya kebetulan. Nasihat dari yang lebih makan garam dan rakan-rakan yang bersimpati. Terima kasih. Walau hanya dari sebuah buku yang menceritakan tentang kesedihan dan bagaimana untuk melenyapkannya. Begitu terdesak, No?!


Aku mengerti dan faham sepenuhnya bahawa hidup ini ade jatuh bangunnya, resam roda, ade kala di atas, kala jengking, di bawah. (duhh~) Itu kenyataan klise. Dah selalu dengar dan diulang-ulang. Tapi sebab betul kan, orang ulang la. Manusia mudah lupa. Terutama orang Melayu macam aku.


It's no denying aku menerima setiap detik takdir hidupku sebagaimana terjadi, meski terdetik dalam hati andainya aku mampu ubah dan menyempurnakannya dalam cara yang lain. No chance! Rasanya apa yang tertulis xperlulah difikir lagi. Kelak merana badan dan mental. Dalam mengumpul segenap kekuatan yang masih berbaki sementara masih mencari inspirasi untuk terus berusehe dan bernafas, aku merancang dan melangkah untuk episod yang depan. Apa lagi yang menunggu agaknya?



Ibarat sungai ini, begitulah diri ini. Tenang di permukaan, tapi lebat dengan persoalan, dilema, perjuangan dan bermacam lagi di dalam hatinya. Ibarat sungai juga, aliran dan hidupnya perlu terus. Tidak kira betapa hopeless. Tak kira betapa hina dan gagal. Kerna resam manusia berfikir itu, berikhtiar. Maka, aku turutkan apa yang benar. Sambil berharap agar nasib dan takdir akan mengunjur ke arah aku dalam bentuk yang lebih hebat dan baik.

Ini bukanlah lelaki yang mencari simpati. Tidak pula bercerita dan menangis tentang kesusahan dan putus asa.

Bukan.

Aku hanya memberi perspektif dari bawah sini. Agar kau yang di atas sana beringat dan bersyukur...

=)

Random thoughts!

  • Tak kira walau macam mana berat 'kesusahan' ini, meski betapa sunyi hati berhadapan, betapa tiada yang mengerti, biar betapa gelisah dan rasa tak berguna, untuk semua salah faham dan hati yang tak bersimpati...aku telah berjanji untuk kekal berdiri, hingga ditakdir jasad dikandung tanah...the least i can do~
  • "Mana-mana pun memang kompetitif, yang pentingnya aok usehe.."-abah
  • Dulu-dulu tiap pagi raya, mesti keluar sarkas kat tv sebab it will bore people to death, thus encourage us more gi lawat relatives/friends. Ironinya sekarang, sarkas di mana-mana. It's very deep if you really understand! 
  • Susah rasa nak lupakan seseorang yang telah mengusik hati ini. Lebih-lebih lagi kalau usaha nak mengorat menemui jalan buntu kerana boo layan. Most of men mungkin anggap 'jangan mengalah selagi xberjaya'.Persistent la konon. As for me, bukan xnak usaha lebih. Di hati kata mari, realiti kata 'cermin diri dulu'. So probably, not now. Jadi, untuk masa ini, gigit jari.

Don’t let the noise of other’s opinion drown your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they somehow already know what you truly want to become.

Mouthwatering!

Assalamualaikum...


Tiada kena mengena dengan makanan...huhu


What i'm talking about is this...




Re       : Chelsea vs. Liverpool
Venue : Jambatan Stamford
Time: +16:00 GMT


This fixture couldn't come at any better time as this two teams will meet first time since the January transfer window and also the first after Mr.Torres switching allegiance for the blue outfit. On Nov. 7 last year, he scored the two goals that gave victory to his old side. Would he score again this time to make the score even?

Lagi satu yang syok nak tengok ialah bagaimana agaknya percaturan Kenny Dalglish untuk menentang The Blues ni. Last match, dia menggunakan formation 3-5-2-1 yang agak unusual but yet effective to edge stubborn side of Stoke City by winning the game 2-0.

And it is also interesting to see how LFC new signing, Luis Suarez will present himself for his first BIG game in BPL.Will he crack under pressure or rise to the occasion and prove his worth?

Tonight...all the question will be answered, and i'm pretty sure it will be a cracking game with both sides are rejuvenating from recent slump of forms.Apa2 pun of course i'm hoping The Reds will prevail eventually.

Fasten your seatbelt and let's have some action!

Secret

"Something meant to be kept unknown, so the mystery will live"

or admiration to someone that too good for you to have...

So long Nando, Welcome aboard Suarez & Carroll...

Assalamualaikum...

What a frantic 24-hour last Monday!

Aku tak maksudkan hidup Jack Bauer dalam series '24'...what i meant is the January transfer window...duhh~

Seperti yang aku catatkan dalam previous entry, aku dah rasakan yang sooner or later, our once beloved son, FT (bukan Faizal Tahir) will leave the club. Malangnya, mungkin sebab dia terbaca entri aku tu, he decided to ask for transfer subsequently. Huh!

Last transfer window menyaksikan lebih GBP215m bertukar tangan di BPL, satu rekod baru. Ini ada kena mengena dengan new rule that will be imposed by UEFA in coming season known as UEFA Financial Fair Play rule.(click link for further explanation)

Basically, peraturan baru ni menekankan 'sound financial management' for clubs. Fail to adhere to the rule, akibatnya dorang (kelab2 yang degil @ xmemenuhi kriteria) will not be allowed to compete neither in Champions League nor Europa League. Tak masuk in those two, means kurang duit la...dan rasanya tak ada kelab yang tak nak duit.

Okla berbalik kepada transfer window. LFC berjaya recruited sekurang-kurangnya dua pemain.

1) En. Luis Suarez from Ajax Amsterdam for GBP22.8 million.

Former Ajax captain now a RED servant~
He's 24. An Uruguayan. Has scored for Ajax more than 100 goals over three and a half seasons. He was named 'Dutch Player of the Year' in 2009/10 season, having scored 35 goals in 33 games (49 in all competitions). Last World Cup, he helped Uruguay through to quarterfinal by playing in 6 games and scoring 3 goals.

Looking at his CV, definitely he's a decent signing. Tapi, BPL is a different league altogether and he needs to adapt quickly and stamp his mark.

2) En. Andrew Carroll dari Newscastle United untuk GBP35 juta. Apo?!

Does he really worth GBP35m? Only time will tell~
After performing so convincingly for Newcastle in their first season back to top flight football, he suddenly found himself attracting the big guns in the league for his service. Kebetulan, LFC was looking for a replacement when FT decided to go, so LFC made a bid for GBP30m which was turned down by Newcastle. Tapi agaknya sebab terdesak sangat, LFC came with improved offer of GBP35m and realizing it was an offer too good to ignore, NU accepted the offer walaupun kedengaran yang sebenarnya Carroll tak nak blah pun! Isk...

Walau macam mana pun, he is now the new LFC's No.9 and when he's fully recover from his recent injury, we'll see how he will fare in Red. Being 22, he has time on his side, but to fully prove himself with the 'most expensive British footballer' tag on his forehead, will definitely be a tall order for this young chap.

Mungkin kedengaran aku agak 'bias' dengan Andy Carroll ni, tapi sebenarnya aku memang happy he's now part of the family...walaupun tangis perginya FT belum kering...huwarrghh~

...dan untuk FT, aku mengharap ko tak blah, apatah lagi menyertai team London tu, tapi nampaknya takde apa lagi yang boleh diperkatakan selain thanks for your services and goals, but i don't wish you well at your new club...huhu...emo pulak.

Now a history...
Taken a quote from the legendary (now the caretaker-manager) Reds - Kenny Dalglish:-

"Players leave the club and players come in, though more have come into this club than gone. It's no different now. People move on. The most important thing is the club"

...indeed. No one's bigger than the club.

Sayonara FT!

p/s: 3/2/11 - LFC won match against Stoke City 2-0 with the debutant, Luis Suarez scoring his first goal for the club!
