Selamat menyambut merdeka. Jangan jadi burung dalam sangkar terbuka tidak mahu terbang.

3 JAM BERSAMA UDIKA, FAJAR & AKU
Tersebutlah kisah, Udika menyeberangi selat pada bulan Syaban. Seperti yg diketahui umum, Udika telah mengembara ke Kolumpo pd 24-26 Syaban. Sebelum sampai di Kolumpo dia telah singgah di Tg. Puteri untuk bertemu Sang Fajar dan Tok Rimau. Mereka membuat ikrar untuk bertemu selepas waktu maghrib di Petak Pusat. Tok dan Fajar lewat tiba kerana Sang Ishwara Tok Rimau tersesat. Dipendekkan cerita, Tok pergi sekolah rendah dan Fajar menunggu di sekolah menengah. Setelah berbalas-balas tepon, mereka bertemu depan to'kong. Tok pun memacu Sang Ishwara dgn laju menuju Petak Pusat tetapi mereka dihalang lagi oleh susunan ratusan besi bertayar bersesak-sesak menuju Pulau Temasik. Tok cuba mempengaruhi fajar untuk turun dari Ishwara, panjat pagar, dan lari 300 hasta ke Petak Pusat, namun begitu Fajar tidak bersemangat untuk mengikut perintah lari berhalangan yang dicadangkan oleh Tok. Mereka terus meredah kesesakkan itu.

Akhirnya bertemulah Fajar dan Tok dengan Udika yanf sedang mnyokong dinding Petak Pusat. Oleh kerana cerita ini sudah diulang-ulang oleh penglipur lara yg lain, maka di sini Tok akan ceritakan sahaja siapa Udika yang Atok Kenali. Tok sangkakan Udika bercakap laju dalam tepon kerana mahu jimatkan kos, rupa-rupanya memang dia berbicara laju macam bertih goreng diluar tepon jua. Luar biasa orangnya, dia juga banyak menjuarai kejohanan2 gezbuk. Antara yg terbaru adalah Piala Rimau yang menghadiahkan VCD Jemapoh dan Piala Charity Maxalon yang menawarkan hadiah misteri. Dia bukan sahaja gemar masuk gezbuk orang, secara fizikal pun dia suka lawat rumah kawan-kawan dia. Klau ikut hati dia, mahu lepas sampai ke Langkawi budak ni. Tidak rugi berkawan dgn dia kerana jika kita sakit dia akan ziarah kita.

Tentu tuan-tuan yang bujang ingin bertanya pendapat Atok samada Udika ini sesuai dibuat isteri. Atok tahu ramai juga yang masih single. Jawapan atok hanya, itu bergantung kepada mata engkau orang. Tok sangkakan budak arab semuanya bersaiz macam Saripah Aini, tapi rupanya Udika ini kecil molek. Kalau kau suka Sheila Majid, engkau tentu suka Udika. Tidak rugi dibuat Isteri kerana orangnya cergas, jalan pun macam bersukan. Kalau dikerah masak, basuh kain, cat rumah, basuh keter tentu tidak menjadi halangan. Hitam manis orangnya. Dan jika engkau impikan hidung mancung tenggelam dalam pipi engkau, Udikalah orang yang engkau cari. Dari segi inteleknya pula, Udika ini amat bijak. Orangnya bercita-cita tinggi untuk jadi saudagar kitab.Kalu engkau budak bengap, janganlah mimpi boleh se pelamin dgn Udika.

Amboi-amboi tersenyum Encik Abang tu. Asyik pikir tentang orang ajer, engkau pun kena ukur baju dibadan sendiri. Engkau kena lihat kemampuan engkau sebelum meminang Udika tu. Pertamanya, telinga engkau mestilah mempunyai stamina yang kuat. Al maklumlah, Udika ni suka bercerita, udah la itu, ceritanya pula laju. Kalau ada Red Bull tu jangan diminum, tuang ajer dalam telinga engkau. Mudah-mudahan tenaganya kuat menghadapi dugaan.

Itulah Udika yang Tok Kenal melalui sesi psikoanalisis di Petak Pusat dan Stesen Bas bersama Fajar. Arakian, Sang Fajar ini masih menyembunyikan rahsia dengan cara mendiamkan diri. Tok tak salahkan dia kerana diaa tengah tidak sihat. Fajar adalah jenis manusia yg sanggup berkorban walau apa pun. Demam-demam pun dia sanggup entertain kawan kawan dia. Opsss... buat apa atok cerita pasal Si Fajar ni, atok sebenarnya dah cerita dalam siri yang lalu. Dia masih begitu, tidak berubah. Begitulah ceritanya.

It was already late. The people that I carpooled with made several pitstops. By the time we reached Api-api, cars had been lining along the road for several kilometers. I saw people walking toward a certain destination where the gathering was held. Tonight, Fadzil Noor (PAS President) came to Api-api Pontian. We parked the car and started walking with the crowd. From faraway I saw, "Ceramah PAS -30km.." (PAS speech) 30Km? I didn't think I could manage to walk that far. Approaching the sign, I read "Ceramah PAS- 30km/j) It was only a warning sign for cars to slow down to 30 km/h as there were so many people. Thank goodness. Nevertheless, another reason to buy new glasses. We just walked for 1 km and got a good seat among the crowd of about 10 000 people.

I got a new boss. I saw him report for duty this afternoon. We shake-hands and I congratulated him for the post. He said, "we gonna meet" this thursday. I see more works are coming my way.

My sight isn't clear. Time for new glasses. The current glasses are of ala-Clark-Kent look. This time I need something more conservative and executive design.

All my works take a rest for a while. This will gimme more time to focus on my core business i.e. updating the website of my oraganization. If I don't do this, nobody will. People keep on complaining but they never contribute.

The man who won Lunas constituency, YB Saifuddin, came to town. He was going to give a speech on 1) Why BA won in Lunas and 2) The current condition of Anwar Ibrahim. Police erected roadblocks in all entrance areas leading to the assembly. Even, the dark unlit street was not spared. Me and my friends just had to pass them. They just looked at our face and let us through. At the assembly, there were about 20 to 50 policemen, not counting the ones in plain clothes. What was the commotion all about? Why there was the need of this show of force? It's clear that the police force has been used for political gain of the party in control, ie BN! These policemen had, for sure, other better things to do than being the slaves of politicians. They should have taken care the raising crime rate in Johor Bahru and the drug addicts at the empty warehouse at JB train station. NO! Some politicians had to instruct them to guard roads just to intimidate people. But we are no fools. We have done nothing wrong. Despite the roadblocks, many supporters turn up at the gathering. The assembly was peaceful, you can see kids and women listening to the speech. I enjoyed the speech, it was both, informative and entertaining. No matter how hard the policemen tried to maintain their fierce serious look, they also could not help laughing at jokes cracked by the speaker.

Gotta go to the football field and see a soccer tournament. I'm not playing this time.

The most stupid thing to do is to go shopping with a group of female executives. I did that mistake in Langkawi, the so called shopping paradise. These ladies are my collegues from work, we were on working-holiday assignment/excursion. I refrained myself from buying anything for 2 reasons: 1) I prefer to travel light 2) I don't have much money. The ladies bought tonnes of stuffs, corelle, acoroc, melamine (mostly branded kitchenware). You guys tell me, who has to carry the goods for them? They looked around, they saw me carrying nothing but a can of chocolate. The asked me to carry the stuff for them. Being a gentlement, I obliged. So much for traveling light!

They have 20 minutes and yet they asked me to put 1/2 inch thick report of info into their multimedia presentation. On top of that they asked for audio, video and animation. I don't think they know what they want. 20 minute presentation at 2 minute perslide, one vcan only afford 10 slides.

Just came back from Langkawi. Nice Island with cheap food and branded goods. Guy Laroche wallet has 20% discount but still I couldn't buy it. Who want a $400 wallet when you can only afford to fill it with coins. Nevertheless I bought myself fake made in Thailand Manchester United jersey for $25 and Hawaiian Shirts for $15 each.

My org. play soccer against a teenager team. We were trashed. The result was 10-1. We lost big time!

My life is full of meetings because I serve many bosses. Sometimes I call for meetings because at certain level I'm the boss of some people. Yes, I'm busy but the learning experience is incredibly rewarding. Just take one example, just because they need me to serve in the Quality Circle group, I got to go to Langkawi to attend on of the big meeting..yes...Mahader's Paradise Island. I'll be having fun in the sea, sun, & sand on the company's ca$h! Life is great!
