"Dear, happy birthday. Wishing u all d happiness. May all ur dreams come true. Luv ya :-D Hv a great day!", says Chief Iz.

"Fiya darling, happy burday & may this day bring wonders & joy 2u :-)", says Darling Ara.

ALL I CAN SAY IS ... I'M SO GRATEFUL OF BEING ONE OF FEW PEOPLE WHO HAD TWO BIRTHDAYS IN A YEAR.

1- 7th of Aug. (I/C's Birthdate)
2- 22nd of Sept. (BirthCert Birthdate)

CONFUSED? Me too. So, don't ask why. Hehe!

Anyhow, I dedicate my special thanks to those people who had never failed to impress me of their love and kindness. I pray the very best to us all and may Allah's blessings become our great companion all the way to success.


Furthermore, one special number did occur, today in history of every 100 years. It falls @ 12:34:56 7/8/09. Where was I on that time?

I was in the car, driving all the way to Rumah Anak Yatim Taman Medan with Pn Maznah to meet Hjh Kamariah, the caretaker of the orphanage home. This visit is specially to confirm on the Saturday event @ The Woods Resort, Ulu Yam, that we had planned a month earlier. Too many things in my head at that moment, but Pn Maznah reminded me to smile while she snap a photo of me ngam-ngam few seconds after "that moment".

The program has been planned earlier. But before that, we had rekee few other orphanage homes to reassure our service meets the right target of people. Rumah Amal Limpahan Kasih @ Kampung Aman, Puchong, the 1st home we visited for this purpose was not so bad at all. I was so grateful to see they have a proper system in place, effective scheduling for the children, one stop centre for collecting incoming donations from various places, as well as functioning as the distribution centre for other home branches and single mothers. Plus, they have also operate one nursery, selling flowers and plants, located at the same area of the house. This maybe has become part of their side income to support their financial needs.

Well.. that's all for the special day. I just pray for everything being planned work as planned. Amin.

Matsuyuki? Japanese? WHY?? O'cmon Fiya.. don't tell me you got fed-up with locals and now trying out new chance with a Japanese guy?

Hahaha.... Hellooo... new dream doesn't have to be a new boyfriend okay.

Matsuyuki is brand name of a sewing machine under janome (japan's origin, world's leader on sewing machines). In Malaysia, Syarikat Epal is currently the distributor of these machines. Besides selling machines, Epal is famous with its training courses on sewing business.

So, Matsuyuki has become my new shift to paradigm about life. BUT, i have one major problem to tackle on. The TRANSITION. How could a loyal PC user transfer herself into an expert in sewing??? Too CONTRAST, isn't it?

The 'ancient' IBM R40E, my loyal company all this while

The Matsuyuki - Gosh .. could I reaaly do it?!

MIRACLES OF GOOD, PLEASE HELP ME!

p.s. heheheh..it's okay to be exaggerating sometimes rite? :-p

(lg demen ama Bhs Indonesia..sori klo krg brkenan)

Tadi malem, aku contact seorang temen yg lagi kesusahan. Tapi, pas ngeliat nomer ku di HP, langsung diputusin! Aku ga kaget sama sekali. Malah aku ngerti bgt kenapa dia begitu.

Dia pasti tau, tidak ada lain yg akan ku omongin ke dia selain untuk kuatkan semangat, jangan putus asa ..walau sesusah apa pun cobaan, tetap kau punya peluang untuk perbaiki diri.

Tapi,..yaah...orang lagi susah, mau diapain. Terpaksalah aku nunggu besok2 untuk ngobrol lagi dengannya. Tapi percayalah temanku, dalam setiap kesempitan itu, ada kelapangan. Dalam kesempitan, ada kelapangan! Tapi dengan satu syarat, kau harus lebih dulu MEMPERCAYAINYA.

Berhentilah sebentar dari kerisauanmu. Ayo kita keluar sebentar dari kotak masalah mu. Walau di luar itu hujan, tapi gapapa.. karna, kalau kau amati dengan saksama, sebentar lagi akan keluar satu cahaya yang indah.. cahaya pelangi..


Selama bertahun-tahun kita hidup, pernah kah kita syukuri terbitnya sang pelangi sehabis hujan? Tapi, ada hujan yang ga ada pelanginya .. gimana tuh? hahahah..
Pelajaran inti bagi semua ini adalah, .. semua orang berhak punya harapan, berhak punya cita-cita dalam hidupnya. Walaupun kita gak bakalan tau, apa yang akan terjadi besok hari. Seperti juga, kita ga bakalan tau akankah terbit pelangi sehabis hujan ini nanti?

Bangkitlah .. walaupun perlahan.
Percayalah.. masih ada harapan menunggu mu di depan..
Kita bersahabat bagaikan saudara.
Hari ni kau lelah, aku yang bangunkan.
Besok aku lelah, siapa yang mau ngebantu aku klo bukan sahabat juga?

Ngomong2..kita tekuni aja lirik lagunya Nidji ni ehh.. biar sedikit tenang :-) And, klo punya waktu, sekalian nonton filem nya aja deh.. impak nya lebih seru.

Laskar Pelangi - Nidji



mimpi adalah kunci
untuk kita menaklukkan dunia
berlarilah
tanpa lelah sampai engkau
meraihnya

laskar pelangi
takkan terikat waktu
bebaskan mimpimu di angkasa
warnai bintang di jiwa

menarilah dan terus tertawa
walau dunia tak seindah surga
bersukurlah pada yang kuasa
cinta kita di dunia

selamanya...

cinta kepada hidup
memberikan senyuman abadi
walau hidup kadang tak adil
tapi cinta lengkapi kita

laskar pelangi
takkan terikat waktu
jangan berhenti mewarnai
jutaan mimpi di bumi

menarilah dan terus tertawa
walau dunia takseindah surga
bersukurlah pada yang kuasa
cinta kita di dunia

selamanya...


dari aku, sahabat setia,
-f14-

I just realize something bout my hand when I look at all these pictures. It is having a good relationship with my mouse. They two move and dance along like they were close friends. Hehe..
These pics were painted using Windows Paint, and Windows Paint only. Nothing to do wit Photoshop or any other auto-tool drawing, no mouse pen, no touch screen, nothing ok. Solely = Paint + Mouse + my Hand :-D
Some of them has been painted recently, and some was 'ancient'. I juz got the feeling to paste it here to add on my original collections. But, I don't do this all the time. Only when I got the feeling to do so (which does not come always), then I'll do it.

Desc:
Nothing too abstract bout this pic. Its meaning showed clearly by the dark sky, the rain and the dark windy ocean. But, those strikes should create the strongest effect of all :-D

Desc:
Masa kecik2, I believe everyone likes to draw pokok kelapa, right? This is just one of my pokok kelapa .. tak nampak buah pun. Konon2 tertutup dek daun.. kekekkeke .. It's under the bright shiny sun ..and clear blue sky... hmm... Can u imagine that?? :-)

Desc:
Ini memang pemandangan masa I balik kampung .. I think around 5 or 6 years ago. Well, it doesn't look exactly like that, but this is the best that I could described on. hehe... Longing to be there again. This memorable view I kept properly and safely, not in my head, but in my heart. Miss you, Bawean.

Desc:
Huh.. what is? I dunno either. I simply scribble my mouse on Windows Paint again (after so long), when I was feeling so angry and struggle to calm myself down when I tak puas hati dgn bos mk.
Surprisingly, it's not only capable to cool me down, but also excite me up. hahahah.. Dont you think this one is more like an abstract drawing which also means something? If not, let me enjoy it alone.. Hehehe..

I started blogging with very little knowledge about it, and I dedicate my biggest heart to hope for excitement on this new world exploration. The results of the exploration are varies. One that clearly excites me is the effort of upgrading my writing skills. I will never do this more seriously if it’s not because of blogging. Word filtering, searching for suitable vocabs, and correcting grammar mistakes are such a tiny and tidy job to do.

Besides that, exploring other blogs are not less exciting. Some has really become additional food for my thoughts. Some just create colorful inspiration for new ideas to come. And this posting is dedicated to an award I receive from Mr Alim Mahdi, Director of Lembaga Amil Zakat, DSM Bali, located at Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia (please correct me if I’m wrong). He is actively blogging at Seputar Bali (http:/alimmahdi.blogspot.com). I had learned many good lessons from there. Most of his writings are embedded with hidden and visible ‘hikmah’, or lessons. I should say that is a smart way to present something good to people. We call it ‘fathonah’, right?

Thank you, Sir.

I know one term often used by Javanese to show immatureness of things. ‘Masih bau kencur’, meaning not yet matured, right? That is how I see on my blog. I’m a beginner with a lot more to learn. Thanx again and Wish me Luck! :-)

p.s. I know who else worth this .. I dunno if they have receive this one before, but it's okay. Let just say that you win this twice. Haha.. Sya, Nini, Sue and Aisy I present this award now to you! Please accept. TQ.

Wassalam (#fia)

I been thinking of what next posting cud be. I don't really have much time lately. But still, I just can't let go this blogging thing off my mind. So, here it is now, a posting specially dedicated to a friend of mine.

A friend who, just like me, surviving, along the same path, through thick and thin, striving to reach the top. As always told, Success is a journey, not a destination. It's the journey that make the destination worth. The tougher you get, the higher and more promising you would be.

Dear friend,
I would like to take your attention towards a lyric of a song called Life is Wonderfull, written and sang by Jason Mraz.

"AND IT TAKES NO TIME TO FALL IN LOVE
BUT IT TAKES YOU YEARS TO KNOW WHAT LOVE IS"

Try to digest the wording, look and feel the meaning. This is what I've got;

Falling in love is the journey towards reaching the destination of love.

So, be patient, but be wise too.
The feelings you had is always a lie without the existence of a wise brain.

I dedicate this song especially to you, and me too.
(kinda slow song, but it matches the love theme... hehe)

May your dearest dream came true.
And the best be granted you.

Life is Wonderful, by Jason Mraz ;

It takes a crane to build a crane
It takes two floors to make a story
It takes an egg to make a hen
It takes a hen to make an egg
There is no end to what I'm saying

It takes a thought to make a word
And it takes some words to make an action
And it takes some work to make it work
It takes some good to make it hurt
It takes some bad for satisfaction

Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la

It takes a night to make it dawn
And it takes a day to make you yawn brother
And it takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other

And it takes no time to fall in love
But it takes you years to know what love is
And it takes some fears to make you trust
It takes some tears to make it rust
It takes the dust to HAVE it polished

Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la

It takes some silence to make sound
And it takes a loss before you found it
And it takes a road to go nowhere
It takes a toll to make you care
It takes a hole to MAKE a mountain

Ah la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la life is meaningful
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la life is meaningful
Ah la la la la la la life is full of
Ah la la la la la life is so full of love
Ah la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life is meaningful
Ah la la la la la life is full of
Ah la la la la la life is so full of love
