is there any reflection in my fb? this is called mirror blog right?

Sick Sad Little World...

Living in the middle is hard you know. At one time u feel that u r all alone in this world, nobody seems to care and no one around u anymore. Then there will be time when u feel like everybody needs u..like damn need u! By that time u will feel that the world is moving around u and u don't have to walk coz everything will come across u while it's moving. Then it will stop again, and u have to walk or run or swim or fly or whatever to keep ur point of view of "things are moving".

This is me i think. I walk thru people every now and then. Some of them might recognize me and some might not. I see their lives like reading a storybook or comics or journals. Sometimes in this journey, people would call me for help or just wanna have a chat or wanna make friends temporarily. I'm ok with it coz at least i can take a little rest and let the world moving around me for a while....and after that it just goes on and on...the world will stop moving and i will walk again until the next call.

If let's say i can be the 8th of The Endless, what name should i bear?

KEMBALI

A year without blogging. Yeah I know, it's been a while (cliche statement when someone left blogging for a damn long time).

In conjunction with Butterfingers latest album called KEMBALI, I would like to dedicate this post as a 'KEMBALI' post. A come back which conclude everything that has happened throughout a year of no-post-syndrome. Let's KEMBALI to my tagline above:

Life:

• It seems good. I've been graduated recently and just finished my convocation ceremony. I've got a job in Vastalux Energy Berhad (Formerly known as Vastalux Sdn Bhd).
• Music is still being a major part of me. But lately I've seldomly played my guitar much maybe because of my buzy-ness working and came home late and then get tired. The industry have seen a quite drastic changes with all the so-called 'indie' bands popping out from everywhere! Whenever i went to gigs, the crowds are not the same as before anymore. The generation has changed. We'll talk about this changes later ok...ehehe
• Political wise, we're paving our way to Putrajaya soon InsyaAllah. I love living in the countr which is full of surprises. It's like living in a circus, watching those clowns performing and expecting many surprises which are surely will happen. This is...MY country recently.

Lovers:

• Thank God it has been a wonderful experience. Just let it go when the time was right.
• It's good to know that some of us are already married, engaged and (ehem ehem) waiting for a newborn baby! Alhamdulillah, hidup makin sempurna.
• For those who recently found their loved ones, spread the message to the whole world! Let the love be a gigantic MIRROR to the world! Give them the reflection of love!
• .....................buffering..........................

Leftovers:

• Please press the rewind button to return to the previous subtopic (Lovers)

Let's not talk too much here. This is just a KEMBALI post. Just a brief new intro for a new season. Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan Al-Mubarak!

Kembali...
Kembali kepada selamanya
Kembali...
Kini ku baru sedar dari mimpi
Kembali...
Kembali kepada petak pertama
Kembali...
Ku mahu hidup seribu tahun lagi

Of Ramadhan, Weekend, and Ignorant Police...

Assalamualaikum dan slamat menyambut Ramadhan Al-Mubarak kpd semua umat Islam seantero dunia (if posting aku nih smpai kat galaksi lain...slamat berpuasa jugak utk kalian...mane tau jd mcm transformers kan)

Weekend nih mmg free...free habes!! Somehow it makes me think "When was the last time i had a weekend like dis??"....weekend yg mmg xde aktiviti penting utk dihadiri atau dikelola....weekend yg x payah risau nk stadi for test or quiz.....weekend yg x payah risau pasal any assignment yg blom buat (ade sbenanye sket2...but still can handle la)

Pagi td aku g KLIA utk anta kazen aku balik Jepun....tengah2 tunggu kazen aku check-in...ternampak la aku 2 org minah omputih ni kalut kibut berjalan anak pantas bak nk terkencing tang tu gak....tetibe minah omputih nih stop n sorang drpd die tuh duduk n muntah2 dlm plastik....member die sorang lg try menenangkan keadaan ngan gosok2 blakang member yg tgh muntah nih....

Ape yg aku nk ckp tentang cite di atas bukan pasal minah tuh muntah....tp sbb ape yg aku nk cite rite now nih...

On the same time...ade 2 org polis bantuan pelancong lalu kat depan antara aku n omputih tuh...ape yg polis ni ckp, "batal posa", kate sorang drpd polis ni kat member die.....dan on the same time gak ade dlm 3-4 org polis bantuan pelancong PEREMPUAN MELAYU berdiri dlm 2-3 meter drpd si pesakit yg tgh muntah nih...but what they did?? bile nampak je minah tu muntah...all of them left the place ngan muka yg macam annoying gile....n tinggal sorang je polis kat situ....yg pada pandangan aku langsung x membantu....hanya berdiri dan memerhati walau dr jarak dekat.....bukan kate nk pegi tanye "mam can i help u?"...tidak sama sekali!!

Somehow it makes me think.. ape nk jadi ngan masyarakat Malaysia skang?? Ok la mayb aku bersalah gak sbb x offer pertolongan...but for God's sake there were soo many police there yg spatutnya ade authority yg lebih utk tolong orang!!! n what they did was just watching n doing nuthin!! Cukup la sekadar insiden peluru hidup kat Batu Burok recently...jangan la nanti sampai tourists pun komen pasal ke-tidak-peduli-an polis kita terhadap keselamatan dan kebajikan mereka sepanjang berkunjung ke Malaysia yg mmg terkenal ngan sikap rakyatnya yg 'peramah' dan 'berbudi pekerti mulia'....bodoh kan?? Nah!! Inilah REALITI!!

Merdeka 2 ( KITA )

Kembali lagi... entah kenapa....aku jadi gila nak mentelaah kembali koleksi lagu-lagu M.Nasir dalam komputer riba nih...akhirnya aku tersentuh dengan satu lagu...cuba anda perhatikan liriknya...

Anak-anak kitakah yang berlari telanjang
Di bawah mentari sumbing
Sambil bernyanyi lagu
Ketakutan hari-hari ini

Anak-anak kitakah yang memikul beban
Kesilapan kita
Hingga dia tak kenal
Budaya canggung bangsa sendiri

Selamatkan anak kita
Dari padang jerangkap samar
Selamatkan anak kita
Orde baru politikus usang

Anak-anak kitakah yang bermain
Di hutan belukar
Dengan senapang kayu ubi
Cambah tak kenal bahaya

Anak-anak kitakah yang tak tahu nak pulang
Bila petang
kerana terlalu sibuk main lastik
Dan berpistolan
Pistol-pistolan

Jaga-jaga anak kita
Jangan sampai jadi hamba
Jaga-jaga anak kita
Kita ini orang merdeka

Panggillah mereka pulang
Ayah nak ajar
Tentang kurang ajar
Jadi mereka takkan sendiri lagi

Panggillah mereka pulang
Ayah nak ajar
Tentang kurang ajar
Jadi mereka takkan dimomok lagi

Fikir
Selamatkah kita di tangan tukang karut itu
Fikir
Selamatkah kita di tangan dalang wayang itu
Fikir
Selamatkah kita di tangan ahli koporat itu
Fikir
Selamatkah kita di tangan doktor jiwa itu
Fikir
Selamatkah kita di tangan pakar kitab itu
Fikir
Selamatkah kita di tangan tuhan-tuhan itu

...itu lagu M.Nasir - Anak-anak Kita....terfikir sejenak...apa agaknya yang bermain di fikiran beliau ketika mencipta lirik lagu ini...dari segi gubahan bunyi aku taknak komen...mantap...ada bunyian nusantara macam biasa...hahahaha

Sekali imbas...apabila lirik itu dituturkan oleh beliau...sudah pasti "anak-anak kita" yang dimaksudkan adalah dari golongan kita....muda-mudi...mungkin beliau cuba untuk menyampaikan pesan kepada golongan sebaya aku...dan juga kepada ibu bapa kita mungkin...supaya mendidik anak masing-masing...bagus!! syabas diucapkan!!...

Tapi aku masih 'ragu-ragu'....siapa yang dimaksudkan dengan "politikus usang", "tukang karut", "dalang wayang", "ahli koporat", "doktor jiwa", "pakar kitab", "tuhan-tuhan" ??? kalian punya pendapat? suarakan....hehehehe

Merdeka 1 (sukahati ibu dan ayah mereka)

Assalamualaikum,

Dah lame aku x tulis kat sini...lame gak la sampai aku sendiri pun taktau nk start dari mana....so nak bagi senang cerita....jom sembang...sembang pasal MERDAYKA

Smalam aku terbaca blog member (Najwan) yang menceritakan tentang lagu Negaraku (yang skarang ni HITZZZ gile)....agak-agak kalo masuk Billboard bleh chart topping hit tuh...paling koman sminggu....semua hasil 'kreativiti' rakyat Malaysia sendiri yang menggubah dan adun semula lagu tu dengan irama bunyi ala-ala hip-hop dan gaya nyanyian 'rap'....diselit pula dengan nada-nada sinis sindiran, teguran mahupun kutukan...semua lengkap (Fusion gamaknye)

Dan disentuh juga tentang asal-usul lagu kebangsaan yang 'kantoi' akhirnya...rupanya dipetik dari lagu Mamula Moon gubahan Pierre Jean Berager dari Peranchis...hahahhaa...aku ingat lagi masa belajar sejarah dulu...cikgu bagitau lagu Negaraku asalnya dari lagu Terang Bulan iaitu lagu rasmi negeri Perak...tapi rupanya ada rahsia tersembunyi disitu...ada seseorang yang ditindas dan namanya dipadam disitu...yea tuan2 dan puan2....tak lain tak bukan...Pierre Jean Berager....komposer asal lagu Mamula Moon yang akhirnya diciplak oleh Perak (dengan tajuk pun nk ciplak...apekejadah la orang yang bagi idea nih)...dan akhirnya diambil secara 'sah' oleh kerajaan Malaysia sebagai lagu kebangsaan yang kita dengar hari ini...

Aku taknak sentuh la kisah lain...kisah bendera...kisah tu kisah ni....semua kisah tu malas la aku nak kupas panjang...lagi baik hadirin sekalian pergi menjenguk blog saudara Najwan....moral daripada semua ini ialah sampai bila nk jadi camnih!!!

tatkala industri bunyi-bunyian (baca : muzik) di Malaysia makin sakit...
tatkala para penggubah lagu dan penggiat seni menyuarakan bantahan terhadap cetak rompak....
tatkala para seniman bertarung mempertahankan royalti....

tatkala itu masyarakat terus menutup mata dan menyumbat telinga...
tatkala itu sejarah sebenar lagu kebangsaan ditutup ceritanya...
tatkala itu masyarakat terus menyanyikan lagu kebangsaan yang pada asalnya memang cetak rompak....
tatkala itu kita terus dilabel sebagai negara cetak rompak...
bukan kerana lanun-lanun CD atau DVD....
tapi dek kerana lanun-lanun yang kita sendiri pun dah tak kenal mana satu....
semua bagai satu

aku tak kesah sama ada lagu ni diambil secara sah atau tak....tapi paling koman cerita la betul-betul..ape nk takut?? takut dilabel sebagai penyokong blok Barat?? takut dilabel sebagai penyangak harta intelek?? takut dilabel sebagai lanun no.1 dunia???.....ko x cite pun orang dah tau!!!
