Dendam by Affifudin Omar

Title : Dendam
Author : Affifudin Omar
Publisher : Buku Fixi, 2011
Pages : 309
Genre : Fiction - Urban, Contemporary
Bought at : MPH Sunway Pyramid
Price : RM20.00

Dendam means revenge in Malay language. This is one of the "fresh from the oven" novels published by the newly-launched publishing company, Buku Fixi. For those who want to know about Buku Fixi and its urban and contemporary novels, you can refer to this blog that I always go to for surveying interesting reading materials.

Dendam is a life story of Khalil Gibran, a Malay and Muslim billionaire in Malaysia. At a young age, he is already revengeful and his heart is full of hatred for individuals and body of power after his father, a member of an opposition political party was severely wounded and incapacitated by a police officer during an arrest. The story revolves around his life as he grows up and fast becoming richer and powerful in the corporate world, and become a man of power himself. Starting from being a vicious interrogator in the police force, his rise to the top is full of manipulation, cronyism, criminal acts, and womanizing. Khalil can go to the max to get what he wants and to achieve his goal. In between honest and dark business deals, and his conquest of female companions, Khalil is sometimes torn between his sins and his goodwill towards others. At the end, there's a transformation. Will Khalil find salvation? Or will he be lost forever?

On a personal note, I picked this one up for a read because I would like to experience something new. When I read the first few pages, I was undecided whether to continue reading or not, because I felt like reading a simple, common Malay television drama in book form. However, as I put a little bit of faith in this novel and continued reading, I found myself wanting to know more and more, what will become of Khalil Gibran? The story flows smoothly, and easy to digest. At certain points of the story, I came across a few events that are quite familiar with the real events that we may have read in the national newspapers. Perhaps, the author is trying to explain and reveal his thoughts about those national issues that people always talk about on their backs and not able to publicly say it up front. All is possible. Anyway, the story is not so emotionally-laden but also not exactly dry. It still carries a lot of good messages and the style of the ending is satisfying.

And I finished it in one night. Not so much thrills, but I'd say, it's a good read.

Going Places : Nightwalking in i-City, Shah Alam

Date of visit : 24th June 2011
Organized by : My housemates...

I have heard of i-City just a year ago. When people talked about i-City, it was always about show of lights and beautiful scenery at night. After a little bit of research on the internet, i-City is a city where the MSC (Multimedia Super Corridor) -Status companies resided. From my understanding, it is a city with the best office environment due to its highly advanced information and communication technology. You can read more about it here.

Well, i-City might be a buzzing cybercentre during the day, but at night time, it is a city of digital lights. Perhaps thousands of LED lights in many shapes and forms lighting the area in various colours. It is a beautiful sight to behold and a heaven for photographers, professional or not. Starting this year, visitors can also enjoy a snowy winter experience in its new 'Snowalk'. With an entrance fee of RM25 for adults and RM20 for children, senior citizens and disabled persons, you can enter the the snowy park with winter jackets provided. However the boots are for rental and if you do not wish to spend more RMs, it is advisable for you to wear your own shoes and not sandals inside there because it is so cold, the temperature is below 5°C. You can also use your RM10 parking ticket as a voucher for a reduced price to enter Snowalk. Inside the Snowalk, you can walk around the place full of carved ice and snowy grounds. You can also play the slides on ice.

Although we had a nice time walking around and enjoying the view, we weren't so pleased with our eating experience here. It was rather expensive, imagine ordering a simple hot lime juice for RM3.50 instead of RM1 or less in other place. And there's not so many eating place that open their service that night. You can only count on the sempoi sweet corns, or fried nuggets or things in the 7-Eleven if you need to snack on something while enjoying the night.

So, that was our first time experience in i-City. Now let's enjoy the photos that I managed to snap with my sempoi camera.

all year round is christmas i guess..

from G-Men to X-Men..

Of course X-Men : First Class is where the war between the mutants and human actually started. By now, we have known that mutants has existed since WWII, somehow their sorrowful fate (mainly of Magneto's) intertwined with the race-eradication process during the Holocaust era. We were taken back to where the teenage Magneto..or Erik, his real name, lost his mother to the cruelty of Klaus Schmidt (who later known as Sebastian Shaw) and then became the lab rat of Schmidt's insane and ambitious experiment. We were also introduced to the young Charles Xavier and Raven who would later be famously (and notoriously) known as Professor X and Mystique. These 3 characters; Professor X, Magneto and Mystique, are the super-seniors of X-Men.

Then, after almost 20 years passes, the bad-ass mutants found their way to meddle into the human's atrocious business by taking advantage of the Cold War to wage their own war towards the homo sapiens. By now we meet Erik, already an adult, is in search of Schmidt who has now become Shaw, to avenge his mother's death and the torture he went through under the experiment of Shaw. In the meantime, Charles and Raven somehow unofficially aiding the CIA to investigate the involvement of the bad-ass mutants led by Shaw. During the process, Erik and Charles met and subsequently bonded by friendship and their same mutant 'nature'. Together, with the help of a CIA scientist and an agent, they recruited several more young mutants to help them address the current situation. These young mutants are conflicted, they knew of their differences but yet unable to accept it due to the difficulties of living among normal people.

Fast forward, the other side of the mutants has now realized that they are not only going to fight the humans but also the diplomatic, peace-keeping band of mutants led by Charles and Erik. Finally, the moment of truth came when Erik finally encountered Shaw, and as the final scenes ended the story, we started to see how the X-Men started to evolve. Now we understand;

a. how Erik became Magneto (and how he got the helmet..);
b. how Professor X became wheelchair-bound (and then started his academy..);
c. how the relationship between Magneto, Professor X and Mystique started;
d. how Mystique changed her heart (and preference..); and
e. how Beast became Beast, of course..

Yes, it's like learning the history of X-Men. Please don't get confused with the involvement of WWII, Holocaust and Cold War in this 'history'. Get your facts right. Somehow, fictions can be derived from facts, and fictions can be mixed with facts. The reality has become the background of the story, crossing political and geographical borders. However, at some point, this fiction can be the mirror image of what has happened in reality. In conflict between two sides, there's always the third party that acts as batu api, or provocateurs (heih..betui ka translation aku nih..)

Okay, anyway..during the 'recruitment' sessions by Charles and Erik, it's interesting to see a few famous mutants in a flash, like Storm when she was little and Wolverine. And in this movie, we get to see the not-yet-X-Men-but-soon-to-be mutants wearing the black and yellow suit, as in the original senior version. All in all, this is a mutant movie with lots of feelings and emotions involved. Be yourself. Learn to accept your unique qualities and you will earn the respect of others. An enjoyable watch.

hanya di radio...

....Teringat pulak pada satu hari aku terdengar satu program bual bicara ni kat radio..tak pasti pulak masa dalam perjalanan ke tempat kerja atau dalam perjalanan balik...biasanya aku masuk keta je aku check channel ni, adakah kena masa program bual bicara atau tidak, kalau kena aku dengor la, kalau tak, aku layan mp3 aku je..aku tak kuasa dengor program2 lain...panggilan hangit ke, tengik ke, den tak kuaso nak dongar...sama ada program berintipati atau halwa telinga pilihan sendiri...so, apa-apa lagu ngetop dalam carta sekarang pun aku tak tau..maka aku adalah ketinggalan zaman dalam department itu..tak kisahlah

....Apapun aku dah terbabas dah nih, menda yang aku nak cakap tadi ek?.. Ooh, program tu...aku tak dapat nak dengar lengkap dari awal sampai habis, sekadar sebahagian..tapi part yang aku dengar tu menarik pulak..tetamu program ni mengatakan, suatu hari anak dia menangis-nangis di rumah kerana nakkan ibunya, sedangkan ibunya bekerja shif malam, dia sebagai bapa ingin memujuk anaknya...Ok, selalu kita dengar kita pujuk anak-anak begini, "Ibu/Ayah pegi keje, nak cari duit...nanti nak belikan adik baju Ultraman, mainan (etc.)". Menurut tetamu ini, kata-kata sedemikian seolah-olah menanamkan idea dalam minda anak-anak bahawa ibu bapa ni keluar untuk menjadi hamba duit, atau menjadi orang yamg meminta-minta. Lagi satu, dengan berkata sedemikian, seolah-olah kita menjadikan sesuatu mainan itu (atau apa saja objek yang menjadi bahan pujukan anak-anak) punya kuasa atau tahap yang labih tinggi dari ibu dan bapanya..kerana, jika ibu atau bapanya tidak membeli atau mendapatkan benda-benda itu, anak-anak tidak mengumpamakan mereka. Kalau dapat, anak sayang ibu, anak sayang ayah. Tapi kalau tak dapat, anak menangis, merajuk.

....Maka, menurut tetamu itu lagi, bukankah lebih baik kita menyemai nilai-nilai yang lebih baik dalam fikiran anak-anak kita tentang ibu bapa mereka yang keluar bekerja. Isteri tetamu itu adalah seorang jururawat. Maka tetamu itu menerangkan pada anaknya, dengan menjalin kaitan dalam kehidupan, lebih kurang begini.."Apabila kita sakit, atau jatuh dan luka, kita perlukan ubat untuk sembuh, kan? Maka, kita ke klinik atau hospital. Di sana, jururawat yang meletakkan ubat dan membalut luka kita. Nah, itulah yang ibu buat di tempat kerja. Ibu keluar kerana ada ramai orang di luar sana yang perlukan bantuan ibu...".

....Dalam kata lain, kita menumpukan peranan ibu bapa yang bekerja di luar sana, bukan sebagai orang yang meminta dan mencari, tetapi sebagai orang yang memberi, orang yang menyumbang. Setiap kali apabila anak bertanya, terangkan menggunakan pendekatan begitu, lama-lama anak akan memahami bahawa ibu bapanya mempunyai tanggungjawab penting di luar sana. Lebih kurang begitulah yang sempat aku dengar, mungkin penerangan aku tak sebaik penerangan asal yang disampaikan oleh tetamu jemputan itu, namun diharapkan konsepnya masih menepati. Topik ini menarik minat aku, sebab rasa-rasanya aku sendiri pernah terguna cara yang kurang sesuai itu pada anak saudaraku masa diorang kecik dulu-dulu.

....Ia mungkin topik yang dirasakan kurang penting, tapi bak kata pepatah, melentur buluh biar dari rebungnya. Menjaga anak ni bukan setakat cukup makan, pakaian dan sekolah sampai tamat, tetapi pendidikan rohani, ilmu kehidupan dan pembentukan pekerti dan jati diri juga sangat perlu diutamakan, kan..

the best in you

(..some more old posts..)

..the best time is our conversation, 
..the best moment is when you show you care, 
..the best part of you is your concern, 
..but I don't mean that when you pay my fare. 

..the best characteristic is your understanding, 
..the practical thinking, and parallel to mine, 
..the place, the value, the faith...notwithstanding, 
..I'd rather say, all seems fine. 

so here we are, my precious one, 
at the crossroads, we ride the fun, 
in the end, lover or best friend,

whatever, time will mend...

..weeping heart..

(this one was written almost two years ago..)

are you a blessing?
are you a test?
are you the arrow
that shot right through my chest?
if you're a blessing
then why my heart is breaking
struck me to the core
bleeding me more and more
but if you're a test
then i have failed
Dear God,
i'm so frail
unable to contain
this feeling
that i dare not to keep
this night i weep..

resistance

(formerly titled ..d.t..)

i wasn't this person before
what had happened..
where have i gone?
who am i now?

i never want this before
but where would i be if not here
but i may be somewhere--

but why am delving
into something of no substance
into something unreal
when my body is here

but my mind is elsewhere
incarcerated
one foot is inside
but another is dying to get out
incarcerated
hands reaching out
incarcerated

but who owns me
other than myself
why would i let this stopping me
why am i holding back
why am i such an anti
why..

there's something wrong
there's something right
which is one
which is not
incarcerated
am i?

Going Places : A day in Kasama Tsutsuji Park

Date of travel : 3rd May 2009
Organized by : Aki-san and her hubby, with us friends.

It has been a while since I last posted an entry in "Going Places" series. I even haven't finished writing about my Sanriku study trip. Anyway, lets leave Sanriku for a while and back to Ibaraki prefecture. A Japanese friend, Aki, whom we knew from our school, along with her husband and a friend invited us one day to visit Kasama Tsutsuji Park in Kasama City. Tsutsuji is azaleas, from the rhododendron genus, a kind of native flower in Japan. Dakara, we could see a lot of azaleas in this park. At a certain time during April to May (maybe during that time the azaleas bloom graciously...), there will be a tsutsuji matsuri (azaleas festival) in this park. And during this festival, there is also himatsuri ( fire pottery festival) happening at the same time. As we understood it, Kasama is famous for its pottery products. And so, that was the purpose for our trip that day.

Our arrival was greeted with a squadron of potteries, arranged in lines and decorative shapes. There's pots everywhere! So please enjoy some of the photos from the trip. 

all lined up for the guests' arrival

pottery products in abundance

That day was quiet a hot day, but it was really nice. Although we didn't actually buy anything, but I personally had lovely time. :)

Perlawanan Akhir Piala FA

Stadium Nasional Bukit Jalil



Football is not my thing. Apapun, harapannya agar kedua-dua pasukan dapat bermain dengan baik dan penuh bersemangat dengan semangat kesukanan sejati. Namun, bukan pemain-pemain saja yang kena ada semangat kesukanan, penyokong-penyokong pun kena la menyokong dengan semangat kesukanan juga. Toksah nak emo tak tentu pasal, jadilah penyokong yang bijak mengawal perasaan. Losing does not mean that it's the end of the world, babe. Anyway, it's just a sport, not a war.
All the best!

Meitantei Conan!

The problem with anime characters is they do not exist in the real world.
Since it seemed impossible to meet with Mr. Gosho Aoyama, the brilliant artist,
I guess I just have to be contented with meeting my favourite anime character of all times....
LIKE THIS! ==>

with Kudou Shinichi @ Edogawa Conan..:)

Perhaps some friends of mine prefer to enjoy it in its original manga version, but I like it more in its animated television series. Especially, with its original Japanese voice talents. Why? Because it's livelier, and fun to hear each characters voiced out. Of course, I have to rely on the subtitle, but then, it helps me with understanding a lot of expressions.

So, why do I like Detective Conan?
* the brilliant detective stories
* the funny and sarcastic one-liners
* the 'Ran-Shinichi/Conan' blues...
* i can't stand Mouri Kogoro, but he's fun
* the nemesis Kaitou Kid (dang! why does he has similar face with Shinichi?)
...and lots of other good stuff!

Yeah, I will love it until my old age...perhaps.. :)

Ahoy, mates!

google image

Hah! I've watched this one after a few days it was released, actually, which was on 19th May. It's the first movie in my waiting list since I first heard of its production. Why not? I've been a fan since The Curse of The Black Pearl. Captain Jack Sparrow is really the star of the show. His swagger, his conniving method, and he's manipulative. Many times we see his actions can be defined as acts of selfishness, and yet, sometimes it's not. And he's so freakin' funny. He's lovable. On Stranger Tides, we were saved from seeing Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann and in their stead are a hunky priest and a gorgeous mermaid. But whatever it is, I just love the love and hate relationship between Jack and Hector. They are always competing against one another but in certain circumstances, they can team up and cooperate. For Jack, there's no one that we've met in all four movies can be trusted (anyway Jack isn't a trustworthy person himself), except for his loyal mate, Joshamee Gibbs. Jack's interesting character is my glue to this film series and Johnny Depp's acting as Jack is perhaps irreplaceable. If Depp doesn't want to be Jack anymore, then all the pirates of the Caribbean should retire, savvy? :)

KaraK

google image
KaraK is the latest Malay movie from KRU Studios on the silver screen, with screening date started since 26th May 2011. KaraK is a horror flick. Horror movie is not really on top of my genre list, but I can still enjoy one as long as it is not a movie without substance at all. My buddy actually wanted to watch another movie, but due to timing issues, we ended up watching this movie instead. 

In a gist, 4 college students who were on their way back to Kuantan from Kuala Lumpur, were stuck in a massive traffic jam on the Karak Highway. The time was already late and fearing they would be late for their classes the next morning, they decided to exit the highway and used the old road through the Karak Town instead. However, their decision was a fatal mistake. How come? The old Karak road is notorious as being keras (meaning sort of haunted). The students; Jack, Ida, Nik and Zura, encountered disturbances from the 'other beings' ever since they reached Karak Town until at a part of the old road, the disturbance led them to swerved from the main road and fall deep into a valley in a forest. With a broken car, wounded and lost, they searched for help until they found the house of Tok Malam, an old man of native origin, deep inside the forest. From that point onwards, weird and scary things occurred to them and later, the actual story behind the accident is revealed.

That was the gist. I think it is common  that people always meet with unwanted consequences when they go overboard with something. In any case, never forget that nothing is more powerful then Allah swt, as He is the creator of every 'beings', and always seek help from none other than Allah. One part at the end of the movie is a good advice to always remember; don't just memorize the words of Allah, but know the meanings and have faith. It's significantly serious when Zura opened the Ayatul Qursi and yet it's blank, the writing's gone. See it in another perspective.

As for me, the storyline is quite typical. And the actings, in general, is nothing out of the ordinary. As for scariness, the first creature in the prologue is perhaps the scariest of all, afterwards, nothing more. The elements of shocks and surprises are less than a handful. However, nothing so cheesy and it is not so difficult to understand. Still, a good job.

once upon a time ... pen pal

Pen-friends or pen pals are friends in the snail mail world, friends whom you write letters to. In the snail mail era, in case some of you guys have forgotten about it, we send our messages via ink on papers. Therefore we need pen and papers, savvy?

Ok. Anyway, having pen pals and writing letters to them were one of my past hobbies. I started writing letters to friends when I was in secondary school. Perhaps some of my former dorm mates still remember how I was always writing letters and receiving lots of letters. Also at that time, I frequently wrote letters to my mom, since living in the school dormitory in the 90s, far away from home, without internet, without handphones (only payphones around the school compounds), there's not much options to tell many stories of my daily life (and pouring out my heart's content ;) ). 

This hobby continued until the end of my uni years (perhaps until the first year of having a career..). How did I get my contacts? Sometimes I browsed for potential friends in the pen pal sections in the magazines, of course, those with the similar interests, similar age and with ads that seemed honest for friendship. Once, I put my ads in pen pal section of Galaxie magazine and I got quite a number of friends from there. Most of them were of similar age with me at that time, but I did get requests for friendship from kids much younger than me and also people older than me. Once I corresponded with a guy whom I knew was older but I didn't know how much, until he mailed me his photo. With the photo, and the way he wrote, I ended the correspondence immediately. Geez...no need to continue when you sense something was wrong somewhere, right? Anyway, most of my friends were decent kids, decent people, who enjoyed the same hobby.

Why did I enjoy this? In those times, I liked to know people from different places. I wanted to know about their life, their interests, their point of view on any issues, their visions of the future, so on and so forth. I enjoyed reading their stories as well as I enjoyed writing mine. The good ones wrote in a very interesting way, that when I read it, I felt like listening the words from their own lips. As if we were talking to each other, not just reading some stuff. And I also wrote in the same way. We gave each other advices and motivation. I love reading their letters and I enjoyed writing. My pen pals were of various race and some were from other countries. Therefore I learned a lot of different cultures and different ways of other kind of people.

After reaching almost mid-20s, and started having a career, the amount of writing and letters received decreased gradually. I guess there goes another phase of life. Life changes, and now we have no time to write letters anymore. We don't even bother to write via e-mail. Now we prefer to keep things simple and short. There's Facebook, Twitter etc. etc. and for those who still likes to write such as myself, there's blog. We update our daily lives in these mediums, no more ink and paper.

I have lost contact with almost all pen pals except one who is now my FB friend. Nowadays, I don't care much to find new friends. Now is the phase of maintaining current friendship and finding old friends. Perhaps I can find some of my old pen pals in the social network, who knows....

Aaahh...old times, old memories....I wonder what have become of them now... :)

Update#1: 3rd June...tracked 2 ex-pen pals in the social network..


Update#2: 5th June...found one and becoming friends in FB..yeay!

nora elena dan soal hati

La ni popular sungguh drama bersiri Nora Elena tu yang kalau tak silap aku, diadaptasikan daripada sebuah novel. Housemate aku salah sorang peminatnya. Sampai nak beli novel tu tapi bila pegi kedai buku, asyik sold out je. Aaron Aziz pun aku rasa dah semakin bertambah-tambah peminatnya. Bertambah laku la bapa beranak dua tiga (errata thanks to Ida Jalal..:) ) itu.

Aku rasa eloklah diorang ni buat drama bersiri adaptasi dari novel banyak-banyak. Pastu ambik pelakon-pelakon hot berlakon watak utama. For sure laku cerita tu. Dan bukat setakat itu, novel tu pun mesti laku punya. Orang yang tak berapa membaca sangat pun boleh jadi terbaca. Sudah tentu statistik rakyat Malaysia membaca 2 buah buku setahun (purata) pun akan improve

Apapun, aku tak tengok pun drama ni. Bukan tak suka, tapi malas rasanya nak mengikuti. Antara sebab-sebabnya;

a. belum tentu setiap hari aku boleh mengadap TV dari pukul 7 - 8 malam.
b. aku maleh nak tengok cerita-cerita yang sarat unsur cinta cam neh...tak elok untuk kesihatan mental aku yang selalunya merindui orang yang jauh tuu.. :(
c. ceritanya; setakat yang aku tahu lah, nora elena berkahwin dengan seth kerana nak memenuhi permintaan ibu yang sakit sedangkan dia tak mencintai seth. pulak dia baru putus tunang sebab ex-tunang dia kuat cemburu kot (ehh, aku hentam saja ni...kalau salah mintak maap ye). seth tu pulak bos kat syarikat tempat dia keje kan. seth tu betul2 sayangkan nora, walaupun nora tak kisahkan dia, marah2 dia, tak layan dia dsb., dia tak pernah marahkan nora. jadinya terus kepada point kesimpulan aku....

aduhai, memang wujud barangkali kisah begini, kalau tak, orang tak buat cerita kot. ada isteri yang punya suami yang baik dan sayangkan dia, tapi dia pulak tak sayangkan suami. ada suami yang dapat isteri baik dan beriman tapi dia yang 'makan luar'. ada suami isteri yang kahwin tanpa cinta tapi akhirnya jatuh cinta selepas kahwin. ada yang jatuh cinta dulu kemudian dapat kahwin, tapi lepas kahwin tak 'ngam' pulak. soal hati, soal yang cukup subjektif dan kadang-kadang unpredictable. tak boleh nak kata "ah, aku tak hingin orang yang begini, begitu..." atau "aku nak kawen dengan orang yang begitu begini je", kerana belum tentu jodoh kita tu seperti mana yang kita nakkan.

bertuahnya mereka yang telah mempunyai pasangan dan hidup bersama di dalam ikatan yang suci. diberkati pula dengan anak-anak. yang mana belum ada, coming soon lah tu. bahagia atau tak bahagia tu...pokok pangkalnya hati....yang ditemani iman. kalau masing-masing ikhlas menerima pasangannya, menerima buruk baiknya, meredhai semuanya kerana Allah swt, insyaAllah...setiap masalah dalam perkahwinan akan dapat diatasi. ada orang jodohnya sekejap sahaja, kemudian diputuskan Allah swt, mungkin ada hikmahnya...mungkin untuk berjumpa dengan orang lain yang lebih baik. mungkin kisah lama itu berlaku supaya dapat dijadikan pengajaran untuk kisah masa depan pula.

lantas apa akan jadi kepada dua hati yang saling menyayangi ini...? 

dan aku teringat kata-kata yang lebih kurang begini....jagalah perhubungan kita dengan Allah swt, dan Allah akan menjaga perhubungan kita sesama manusia...
