Not 11, But It Was a Happy Crowd!

Untuk Makluman Kengka

Alhamdulillah, kawan dan adinda kawan, era, telah selamat dinikahkan pada hari sabtu 2hb Jun 2007, jam 9.30 malam di rumah orang tua kawan di taman uda, johor bahru. Kami cuma adakan majlis yang ringkas sahaja, iaitu hanya upacara akad nikah dan jamuan makan. Para jemputan cuma saudara mara yang rapat, jiran2 dan kawan2 yang terdekat. Kad jemputan tak buat, cuma jemput mulut.

Imam yang menikahkan kami ialah Imam Mahad (Datuk), imam besar Masjid Sultan Abu Bakar. Kebetulan dia ni saudara mak kawan, maka mak kawan memang request dia untuk nikahkan kami. Seperti yang janjikan, imam mahad tiba di rumah kawan selepas waktu Isyak, iaitu kira-kira pukul 9.30 malam.

Segala persiapan untuk majlis malam tu kawan buat secara ala kadar sahaja. Hidangan yang kami sediakan pada malam tu ialah nasi beriani lauk daging masak beriani, ayam masak merah, laksa johor dan rojak petis. Semuanya dimasak sendiri oleh keluarga kawan dan dibantu jiran2.

Rombongan adinda kawan dari seberang tiba lebih kurang pukul 9mlm. Sedara mara adinda kawan yang datang lebih kurang 20 org. Member2 sepejabat adinda kawan dari seberang yang datang lebih kurang 20 org. Member2 dia semua excited sebab mereka tu semua bukan melayu (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Greek, American dan Indian) so mereka rasa macam best sangat dapat pergi majlis kami, majlis orang melayu.

Kawan memang tak hebahkan sangat dengan member2 berita tentang kawan akan bernikah. Kawan cuma beritahu dan jemput member2 pejabat kawan di JB je. Member2 kat KL, kawan cuma beritahu dan jemput zahrin dan yasmin je (member baik kawan masa di ITM dulu). Member2 yang lain2 kawan tak beritahu lebih-lebih lagi pada member2 yang kenal dengan bekas isteri kawan dan tak tahu yang kawan dah bercerai. Bukannya kawan nak berahsia sangat tentang pernikahan kawan kali yang ke-dua ni cuma kawan belum bersedia untuk bercakap pasal perceraian kawan dengan bekas isteri kawan.

Hari sabtu 29 Dis 2007 yang lepas kawan rasa sudah tibalah masanya untuk kawan beritahu dan kenalkan adinda kawan pada member2 k-oz. Kepada member2 k-oz yang berkesempatan berjumpa dengan adinda kawan di izzi hari tu, kawan ucapkan terima kasih kerana sambutan baik yang telah diberikan. Mohon doa restu dari kawan2 agar rumahtangga kami kekal dan bahagia.

Alhamdulillah, adinda kawan juga senang dengan ahli2 k-oz yang ada di izzi pada hari tu. The food was good, restoran tu best dan the reunion was great. We are also looking forward for the next reunion.


p/s Gambar yang boleh kawan posting kan ni adalah gambar yang ada dalam pc kawan ni. Gambar yg lain ada dalam album (tak de softcopy).

It's A Reunion... Almost!!!

Pix: K-Oz (plus Zara & Era); B'day Boys & Girls; Kak Emm & Zara who painstakingly sponsored and carried the B'day Cake.

2007 have been filled with ups and downs for K-Oz members. And finally on 29th December 2007 half of the gang met up at IZZI for lunch and laughters!!!

Hope to meet more often in 2008. I LOVE YOU PEOPLE TO BITS!!!!

Ok, let me tell you something. I used to hate this song. I know it is a HUGE song and everybody seems like so into it. For me, it's soo annoying. Everytime I hear the song on the radio, I get irritated. Well, Rihanna's version I mean. Although I think the remix version with Chris Brown is kinda cute (I am looking the one with the glass slipper, you can be my cinderella, ella ella eh eh). hahaah. However, one thing that I like about the song is the sweet lyrics. If you listen carefully, the lyrics basically about being your loved ones's shelter or something like it.

Anyway, one day i heard on radio this lovely acoustic version of the song and i instantly fell in love with it. It was by this one girl named Marie Digby, she did this cover version on youtube and BAM! now it's like a phenomenon. She even appeared on tv, on the Carson Daly show. You can search youtube for marie digby and she has her page there. Very cute (I am sure Lampin would love this haha) and has this raw, lovely voice. She did a lot of cover versions. Check her out.

Anyway back to the song, Mandy Moore also sang an acoustic version during her Yahoo Live performance too. Me likey!! Mandy's version is more mellow and soft and sweet. I put both videos here, so check them out if you guys have time.

So i dedicate this song to all of you, you can stand under my umbrella.. ella ella ella eh eh eh ;-P

Mandy Moore



You had my heart, and we'll never be a world apart
Maybe in magazines but you'll still be my star
But baby 'cause in the dark you will see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share because

When the sun shines we shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
That I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'm gonna stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
know that we still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)

The fancy things they're never coming in between
You're apart of my entity
Here for infinity
When the war has took its part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard

Together we'll mend your heart because
When the sun shines we shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
That I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'm gonna stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever know that we still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my

You can run into my arms
It's okay, don't be alarmed
Come into me
So gonna let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more because
When the sun shines we shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
That I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'm gonna stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever know that we still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my

It's raining (raining)
Ooh baby it's raining (raining)
Come into me
Come into me
It's raining (raining)
Ooh baby it's raining (raining)
Come into me
Come into me(ella ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh eh eh-eh)

Night with Samsons

I miss this blog. It has been quiet for awhile. Hey korang, why nobody update anything? We can use this as a way for us to well tell each other whats happening in our live. Jomla... Anyway, biar jan la bercerita hari ni.

Last night jan pergi concert samsons. Free concert of some sort. Digi sponsored. Jan pun tak tau, my friend yg arrange for the tickets. It was at Dewan Wawasan, Menara PGRM. First time la jan pergi free concert and have to stand in the crowd. Samsons was great, but the crowd is not really my thing. At times, Jan takut jugak. I mean, Jan tak pernah kot gi concert without a male member of my family or friends. Last night was just me and my friend Ain. I thought it was a seated concert, since cam well dewan tu kecikkan. Tapi kitaorg cam shocked skit la cam dua2 pun cam nervous la.. alamak.. kena diri camni ke. Dah la nak start lambat, so lama la ngan org2 pushing and sticky yucks.. about 930 baru start. Samsons performance was great, vocal best giler. and he is so cute!! hahaha.. but i dont know most of the songs, I only know 3 songs from the band - Kenangan Terindah, Bukan Diriku and Naluri Lelaki. Kenangan Terindah was awesome, best sgt!!! Tapi i wass sooo disappointed sebab dorang tak nyanyi bukan diriku. I was looking forward to it so much! I was nervous when some guys nearby sort of like acting wild, mcm duduk atas bahu and tak pakai baju, bwk banner something relating to the band's country of origin. But we were near in front, depan ada polis and some security people so cam ok la kan. The concert ended around 1030la.

Overall, Jan cam starting to like the band la, I really like the new song, Kisah Tak Sempurna, pretty heartbreaking, eventho cam tak paham sgt lyrics nyer hahah. My friend tu minat giler ngan dorang ni so it sort of rubbed on to me too. But from this experience, rasa cam tak nak dah la gi free concert. Hahahha i rather pay and rasa more safe and comfortable. I've been to quite a number of concerts and this was the only one yang made me kinda nervous. hahah takpela..experience kan? Bila lagi.

The Spirit That We Don't Fathom

A picture speaks a thousand words, but it cannot still explains an emotion. These pictures tell us a story of Palestinians youngsters. While our future generations skip schools to join the stunt world of Motor Rempit, the Palestinian children are risking their lives to go to school.

Fix Me, Please

I dropped a few tears in the car on the way to work this morning. I am so tired. I don't really want to be here right now. I am tired of trying to be optimistic about things.

I told my brother just awhile ago that I can't do this anymore. I feel like i have to drag myself to work everyday. Everytime I think about going to the office, I felt like throwing up. Those are not good signs, right? It's not the workload. It's not the people (i've made some good friends here). I am not really sure why. I guess the feeling of insecurity and the future of my career. I don't see myself progressing here. I am worried that my value will go down, if I stay here too long. I feel like I am stuck here. I am worried about so many other things.

My brother told me to hold on. He told me to keep trying. He told me that maybe this is my downcycle but it's during this time that it makes me stronger. He said that later, when I am on the upcycle, I'll be able to relate to this experience. I told him I am tired trying to be strong and keep my head high. He told me that, I went this far already and it's not worth quitting right now after all my sufferings. He told me to do enough to survive.

If there is one thing that I am not happy about my life right now is my work lah! I am not even worried about being single and not married at this point of time (eventhough there are people who worries for me). Without work, how would I survive in this world? Maybe this is not the job for me. Who knows maybe I am destined to be something else?

I don't know what I would do without my brother, family and close friends. I feel like putting everything aside and just go. But a grasp of reality makes me tell myself.. please, keep holding on. Just step out of the office, I become a different person entirely. It is bad that when it is the beginning of a fresh day, a brand new week, but I am already wishing for the weekend. I wish you guys will never have to feel like what I am feeling right now. It is not good. I don't want my friends to have to go through this experience. It sucks!

I know that I have to keep my head up. But today, i just feel weak. I just want everything to be happier, with rainbows and sunshine. I know that there are other people who suffer things worst than me. It's not that I am not grateful with what I have, but I feel there is so much more to this and it really frustrating for me, cuz it's not happening to me!

I am sorry if this post sounded emotional or "disturbing". And don't worry, I am still sane, I am ok. I am still doing what I am doing right now. I just need a place to say things out, ya know. I felt better now. Anyway, thanks for reading.

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

High up above or down below when you're too in love to let it go but
If you never try you'll never know
Just what your worth
Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears streaming down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears streaming down your face and I
Tears streaming down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

~ Fix You, Coldplay

HAPPY SECOND ANNIVERSARY K-OZ

It has been two years since this blog was set up for this group of friends.... a lot had happened and somehow although things seem to fall apart, I know the spirit is there.... especially today when we had lunch with Sam.... missed u a lot la Sam even though we chat in cyberworld almost every day ..... it has been 4 months since we last met Sam..... and last week I had lunch with all the girls except Akla.....

When is the next reunion boys and girls?

It's Been A Long Time

I can't even remember when was the last time I post anything in here. But I do catch up on Khayal's posts and I know Carebear update this blog sometimes... it could be that we have lost the K-Oz spirit altogether.... what a loss.....

But I am glad we still keep the communication chanel opened and we still arrange meetings and get-togethers every now and then.... I have not seen Dubuk and Lampin for a while now... had lunch with the girls last Friday and I was so happy. Everybody looked happy. I didn't realised how much I have missed Syir, who look really Grreat!!!!

A lot has changed since K-Oz started this blog some 2 years ago. I am with 2 kids now. My little Millie is almost 8 months old. Shaf has also added on to the "insurance policy to get" list (heheheh, Shaf dah buat ker belum?) less than a month earlier than I have.

My Millie is my angel. Godsent during times of trouble. Really!! It was an easy pregnancy and and easy labour, especially considering that I had my first baby almost 7 years before. And now, she is an easy baby to look after. She sleeps through the night with once or twice night feed. She rarely shows tantrum. She is playful and cheeky.

All the girls except Akla has met my little angel but she is much bigger now... Her photo at one day old and another one at 7 month old are pasted here.

Story of 2 Guys and A Girl

Happy Birthday Diva

Hope you like it Diva!

Operation Death - Extract from Email

Another interesting email again. Received today. I wish I knew who the original author of this was:

*IN THE NAME OF ALLAH MOST GRACIOUS MOST MERCIFUL*
*OPERATION DEATH*
* *
*This is the tale of an average man who acts contrary to Allahs plan, if you
are reflected herein then repent and commit no sin.*
* *
Twas early in the morning at four, when death knocked upon a bedroom door,'
who is there?' the sleeping one cried,"I'm Izrael, let me inside"

At once the man began to shiver,as one sweating in deadly fever,he shouted
to his sleeping wife, "don't let him take away my life".

"Please go away o angel of death", leave me alone, im not ready yet, my
family on me depend; give me a chance o please perpend

The angel knocked again and again, "friend ill take your life without a
pain, tis your soul that Allah requires, I come not on my own desire.

Bewildered the man began o cry, "o angel im so afraid to die", ill give you
gold and be your slave, don't send me to the unit grave.

Let me in o friend the angel said, open the door get up from your bed, if
you do not allow me in, I will walk through it like a jinn.

The man held a gun in his right hand, ready to defy the angels stand, ill
point my gun towards your head; you dare come in ill shoot you dead.

By now the angel was in the room, saying o friend prepare for the doom,
foolish man angels never die, put down your gun and do not sigh.

Why are you afraid tell me o man, to die according to Allah's plan?,come
smile at me do not be grim,be happy to return to him.

O angel I bow my head in shame, I had no time to take Allah's name,from morn
till dusk I made my wealth, not even caring about my health.

Allah's commands I never obeyed, nor five times a day I ever prayed, a
fasting came a fasting went, but no time had I to repent.

The pilgrimage was already incumbent on me, but I would not part with my
money, all charities I did ignore, taking usury more and more.

Sometimes I sipped my favourite wine, with flirting women I sat to dine,o
angel I appeal to you, spare my life for a year or two.

The laws of holy books I will obey ill begin prayers this very day, my fast
and pilgrimage I will complete, and keep away from self conceit.

I will refrain from usury, and give all my wealth to charity, wine and
wenches I will detest, Allah's oneness I will attest.

We angels do what allah demands, we cannot go against his commands, death is
ordained for everyone, father, mother, daughter or son.

Im afraid this moment is your last, now be reminded more of your past, I do
understand your fears, but it is now too late for tears.

You lived in this world, two score or more, never did you your people adore,
your parents you did not obey, hungry beggars you turned away.

Yout two ill begotten female offspring, in nightclubs for a livelihood they
sing, instead of making more faithfuls, you made your children ungrateful.

You ignored the calls of prayer, nor did you read the holy book, breaking
promises all your life, backbiting friends and causing strife.

From hoarded goods, great profits you made, and your poor workers, you
underpaid, horses and cards were your leisure, money-making was your
pleasure.

O human you have done enough wrong, you bought good properties for a song,
when the farmers appealed to you, you did not have mercy, tis true.

Paradise for you, I cannot tell, undoubtedly, you will dwell in hell,
there's no time for you to repent, ill take your soul for which im sent.

The ending however is very sad, eventually the man became mad, with a cry he
jumped out of bed and suddenly he fell down dead.

O reader take a moral from here, never know your end may be near, change
your living and make amends, for heaven on your deeds depends.

The Cutest Duet EVER!

Check this out!! So cute!! *sigh*

Break Out?

Just thought of sharing and sakitkan hati.. HAHAHAHHAHA

K-Oz

I finally figured out how to put this vid here!!
Hehehe
Enjoy this friends!

Where Everybody Knows Your Name

Making your way in the world today
Takes everything you've got
Taking a break from all your worries
Sure would help a lot
Wouldn't you like to get away?

All those night when you've got no lights
The check is in the mail
And your little angel hung the cat up by it's tail
And your third fiance didn't show

Sometimes you want to go,
Where everybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came
You want to be where you can see
Our troubles are all the same
You want to be where everybody knows your name

Roll out of bed Mr. Coffee's dead
The morning's looking bright
And your shrink ran off to Europe
And didn't even write
And your husband wants to be a girl

Be glad there's one place in the world
Where everybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came
You want to go where people know
People are all the same
You want to go where everybody knows your name

Where everybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came
Where everybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came

~Where Everybody Knows Your Name by Gary Portnoy and Judy Hart Angelo (Theme song from "Cheers")~
