It Used to Seems Serious. Now I Beg to Differ…

When I was cleaning my hard disk, terjumpa la my ’secret diary’. Secret diary kt pc la ni. When I read them back, I chuckled because the problem I used to face seems so…

…big.

Tp skrg bila pk balik, sbnrnya tak la besar mana pun problem tu.

*************

aku nye prob dgn dia x setel2 lg. getting worse aku rs. one day i try to be good to her by giving her my fav chocolate cake. mahal woo kek tu. aku siap g tmpt dia nk kasi sendiri kek tu kt dia. tpb dia kata dia xnk. ok fine. tp dia tak pandang lsg muka aku!

for the first time in my life, i think i hate someone. aku jarang & susah nk benci org tp bila dia buat perangai x profesional dia tu aku menyampah sgt. kalo x nk pun x leh ke dia ckp elok2? lps tu buat muka taik lak tu.  geramnye! sampai sekarang pun aku b’bulu bila t’ingat psl tu. b4 ni bla dia ckp apa2 aku try to lyn elok2 tp bla dia buat cam ni, aku x kan tolerate lg.

b4 ni, aku mmg civil, bila nk makan, ajak dia, klu dia lom ada group assignment aku ajak dia sekali, nk buat apa2, aku pastikan dia x effect apa2 and i tried my best to jage  hati dia, tp bila perangai dia dh sampai tahap melampau… aku x tahan!
 
x boleh ke dia respek aku sikit? aku sebenarnya akan layan orang exactly how dia layan aku.

bla dia layan aku teruk, aku layan dia lebih teruk, kalau dia lyn aku bebaik, aku layan lbh baik.aku rs dh cukupla aku layan dia mcm x de apa2. after this, kalo ada org perasan kitorg x baik, aku x kn coverline utk dia lg. pegi mampus la dia.

i lead my own life, she lead her own. lps ni kalo aku eccident pun, bukan dia org yg aku nk inform. kalo dia accident, t’lantar la dia sorg2, bcoz aku x akan kisah apa nk jadi dgn dia lagi!

*********

Gilos secretive tul aku. Dlm diary aku tu (yg aku hide appearance dia and letak password somemore, kira mmg takkan ade org leh baca lah!) aku tak disclose pun nama budak tu.

Ye aku mmg marah masa tu. And aku mebi dh maafkan dia klu dia leh berlagak normal sekarang. Tp last time aku terserempak dgn dia, dia still berperangai taik. Tak grow up lagi even after several years.

Hurm…

Taperla. Whatever floats your boat, honey…

Magazine and Maturity

Don’t judge a book by it’s cover.

Erm…betul la tu kot. Tapi aku almost NEVER judge a book by it’s cover. Apa yg aku buat, judge a person by the KIND of book they read. Aku percaya apa yg kita baca reflect personality and thp maturity kita. That’s why jenis magazine aku berubah ikut my stages of life.

Kanak2 (7-12)
Masa ni abah aku selalu belikan buku and majalah utk aku. Yang aku suka baca selalunya majalah Kawan, Bintang Kecil, Pintar and kadang2 majalah disney tu. Kt kelas pun ada majalah cikgu beli guna duit kelas. And kitorg selalu berebut2 nk baca majalah tu. Selalula dgr kt kls tu “Pas ni kita cop!” atau “Lepas Mira, Shuba, lps tu Amnah, lepas tu….. (insert nama org ikut giliran derg)” bila majalah baru sampai. And of course, by the time majalah tu dh sampai giliran aku, majalah tu dh tak rupa majalah lagi. Rupa belacan is more like it. Tp tak apala. Aku rasa yg best baca majalah tu sbb boleh baca ramai2. Nak2 klu kita ada crush dgn one boy dlm kls. Boleh ddk sebelah2 sambil baca majalah bersama2 without looking gedik sgt. WAHAHA!

Early Teen (13-15)
During these tw years, all I read was REMAJA. Masa mula2 beli tu rasa bangga sgt sbb konon2 dh remaja la. (Okeh aku tipu. Reason sebenar aku beli sbb masa tu cover dia gbr lelaki hensem. Aku dh menunjukkan minat terhadap jantina lawan since 13 ok?). Then after that aku tak terlepas even satu keluaran pun dek loyal sgt.

Tapi satu slack magazine ni ialah derg byk kencingkan org. Since aku baca EVERY SINGLE FUCKING article, so kira aku leh detect which article is real and which is bogus. Derg ni byk tipu fakta woooo. Aku pulak bukan baca this one magazine je. Aku baca surat khabar mingguan yg ada bahagian kesihatan tu, and aku pinjam magazine JELITA mak ngah aku gk. Article dlm REMAJA ni kebanyakkannya adalah sampah sbb byk fakta derg copy paste dr internet sj.

To make matter worse, derg ni suka buat kuiz. Kuiz pun tak matured and sampah gk. The last straw was ada satu keluaran ni, when they publish two articles psl benda yg sama tapi berlawanan antara satu sama lain. Ko phm maksud aku? Contohnya camni la. Kt page 40 dia kata, coklat tu menggemukkan, byk kalori dan boleh menyebabkan jerawat. Then kt page 180 tetiba dia kata dakwaan kononya coklat tu menggemukkan and menyebabkan jerawat tak benar! Pdhal baruuuuu je derg kata coklat tu camtu!

Aku mmg menyumpah habis majalah tu. Since then aku stay away from that magazine. And truth to be told, I can’t help but pandang rendah for those yg dh 26 but still bought and read the damned magazine. Sorry la. Bhn bacaan pun camtu, cane aku nk respect. Huhu.

Teen (16-17)
GALAXIE! And several comics. But those comics tu not religiously bought every month pun so tak kira la. Ini kt MRSM dulu kira majalah plg hot la!. Ssh ko nk jumpa org yg tak beli and baca this magazine. Yg wat hot tu sbnrnya aku saspek psl ada berzillion gbr Backstreet Boys and N’Sync. And not to forget latest lyric of the hottest songs!

Aku beli psl aku bermotivated nk improve my English. And this magazine is the cheapest and fun way to improve my English. So kira byk gk la jasa magazine ni. Haha…

Young adult (18-23)
CLEO. Obviously. And other glossy fashion magazines. Yg plg prominent CLEO la. Oh ye, time ni aku dh tak beli Malay magazines sbb majalah derg nmpk ketinggalan zaman sket. Bukan fakta dlm majalah derg yg ketinggalan zaman, tp design, and sometimes even the photos quality pun still cam… early 90’s dulu.

Masa ni baru terasa nk jd cantik, nk berfesyen2, nk stylo2. Konon2 la. CLEO ni pulak macam katalog. Every single item yg derg display in their magazine siap ada price tag lagi, so sng nk bajet, berapa ringgit nk save bln ni so that I can buy those yummy lipstick, or dress, or that amazing handbags, and so on so forth. Tp aku saspek target audience dia adalah yuppie (Young and proffessional), so harga brg yg derg display mmg tak igt dunia pya! Tp okla. At least kita tau what is the latest brand in the market.

But for those yg igt this is a bimbo magazine, rasa2 slh kot sbb kt dlm ni still ada worthy nye articles about life, love, careers, sex… Byk yg related dgn actual life and article derg sgt practical. And not to forget all the freebies every month! Very exhilarating and very generous. We girls like two things in the world (apart from money and sex, obviously): we love discounts and free things! And they offered these pretty much in every single month. What else to expect? Hahaha…

And after several years, even I still love the magazine, (and even when I can now afford to buy the items they featured in the magazine), I think the theme can no longer relates to me. I mean, sometimes I think the editors were made up by a bunch of feminist because they love being single.

Hey, I love being single too but I won’t stay single forever. I’m now in my stage of life where I’m ready to COMMIT and to SHARE. So I’ve shifted to the new stage:

Adult (Konon) (Now- few coming years)
Now my magazine of choice is IMPIANA. The ideas are amazing and modern. The photos are so beautiful and artistic. Compared to Anjung Seri, I definitely choose this one la sbb idea dlm Anjung Seri tu… common sgt.

Even though aku ni tader artistic touch whatsoever in interior design, (and I will most likely will kemas my house in Anjung Seri-like manner), I still like Impiana. Modern, fresh and up-to-date. Oh, thanks to Impiana, I now have a perfect idea on how to kemas my rumah. Ada satu rumah ni, dia nye floor plan was exactly like mine. So I plan to copycat the theme down to every details.

What? Plagiat is the higher form of flattery what? Hahaha…

Near Future
I think, maybe… I’ll read… I don’t know. Majalah RASA maybe? Beli majalah resepi plk.

Then maybe…

…PA&MA. (HAHAHA).

Future, like…10yrs ahead?
Baca buku panduan naik haji. InsyaAllah. And buku persiapan menghadapi mati. (Insaf tak? Insaf tak?)

Haha…

Countdown

1st week raya
Bf start bgtau intention dia nk masuk meminang. Aku excited (naturally, sbb aku gtl. hahaha) and berdebar (ok aku nervousssss). Original plan: nk merisik masa dtg beraya. Family aku tak setuju psl ramai ‘org besar’ dan waris2 aku tak ada kt kampung. So, pospone. Tapi bila dh tau intention dia, kami yg perempuan2 dlm famili ni (yg suka berangan - family trait aku rasa. haha) mula bincang menu apa masa tunang. And this is BEFORE org tu even dtg merisik! Excited tak ingat…!

Minggu akhir raya
Aku g umah dia utk tolong famili dia nk wat open house. Ok, I was not alone. Pegi dgn adik p’puan aku who acts as my company and a buffer. (I was still malu2 dgn famili bf masa ni). I was not quite sure how the topic came about, tapi masa open house tu tetiba bf aku dtg bisik something kt ucu dia and dia…err.. menari? tp aku tak amek pot sgt sbb kdg2 bf aku mmg gila gila-gila. Then dia bisik kt aku plk “Kita tunang bulan 12,” Aku tak bg reaksi sbb:
1)Aku terkejut. Bygkn dr plan nk tunang bln MAY TAHUN DEPAN di fast forward ke BULAN DEPAN.
2)Aku saspek aku slh dgr. Mebi bf aku maksudkn meminang, bkn bertunang.

So aku buat muka blur. Bf tak puas ati with my lack of response, pegi kt nenek dia and bisik2 plk. It’s funny to see him pegi kt sapa2 in the vicinity and bisik2 and broke into silly grin. Contrast to that, aku buat muka blur lagi. Comical.

Final week of October ‘08
His parents has been contacted my parents about this. Selalunya bincang pasal tarikh. Bila satu pihak propose tarikh ni, satu pihak tak setuju pasal waris2 tak free masa tu. SO bincang punya bincang punya bincang, masing2 setuju takleh buat bln 12 as everybody had tight schedule. Tah cemana, my mom propose wat bln 11.

My mom called and said “Ko tunang akhir bln 11,”. I was stunned and speechless. Jammed otak aku kejap. Bila otak aku dh boleh jln balik, I replied “Tapi org takde duit! Caner nk buat kenduri, hantaran?” *glabah glabah glabah*. My mom said “Jamuan abah sponsor. Mak kata kt mak Anep, dtg bwk cincin dua bentuk, tayah hantaran. Tunangkan terus je,”. Ye, my mom suka menyenangkan perkara rumit. Syg mak.

Tapiii….bila mak abah pengantin (waitceh tetiba lak ngaku pengantin) nk senangkan urusan, sedara mara plk tak setuju. Yg belah aku tak setuju psl lack of hantaran “Tak meriah la nnt majlis tunang,” kata mereka. Yang lagi sorg ni plk awal2 dh warning “Hantaran taknak kurang dr RM10,000. Klu tak boleh sediakan, rejek!”. (Mak aku pnh kata kt bf : “Hantaran tu tak kisah. Berapa yg Anep mampu, itu yg makcik terima,” Ye, Mak aku baik. Sila kawen dgn aku. Wahahaha). 

Yang belah bf plk tak setuju psl kami berdua ni anak sulung, so klu boleh dia nk wat ikut step-by-step btl2.  Nak2 belah dia ada jawatan dlm adat. Lagi la takleh wat short cut. Menung jap kami.

Jumaat 7/11/2008 (8.30pm)
Mak abah bf dh ajak pegi beli cincin. Aku angguk. Plan dgn derg nk g after bf abes peksa dlm mggu depan. So aku dgn suka hatinye pegi psr mlm dgn bf.

Jumaat 7/11/2008 (9.30pm)
Abah bf call “Balik umah sekarang. Bwk Miza sekali,”. Bunyi cam urgent. Aku yg pesimis sket menggelabah. Igt nk kene marah sbb balik lambat sgt. Bf aku yg endlessly optimist kata “Yay, kita tunang esok”

Rasa nk luku kepala dia.

Jumaat 7/11/2008 (9.45pm)
Abh and mak dia duduk kt sofa and aku and bf duduk kt lantai. Sekali tgk sebijik cam filim purba yg mana mak and abah bf cam ddk kt singgahsana, and kami berdua cam pesalah nk tggu hukuman. Then abah bf decreed “Ahad ni pegi Jelebu pegi merisik dan meminang,”

Otak aku jammed lagi. Walaweh! Lusa plk dh! Skrg giliran bf plk gelabah *glabah glabah glabah*

Mlm tu jugak plan besok pukul berapa nk beli cincin, berapa keta nk ikut, kul berapa nk gerak. PEGI FITTING BAJU. (Sebbaik ucu ada baju nikah dia dulu. Double sebbaik, saiz kitorg sama. Whew…) Call waris2 penting.

Chaotic.

Sabtu 8/11/2008
Kul 8 bf jemput, breakfast kt umah dia. Tggu2, last kul 11 baru gerak. Then beli cincin, then terus g ofis. OT half day.

Selingan: ada org call ajak aku kuar. Sorry dude, now my finger gonna have ring on it.

Dh habis selingan: Jemput my baby sis kt KTM, briefing kt dia what happen tomorrow. To her credit, she didn’t show any distress sign. She was cool to hear the news.

There’s Something Wrong With My Transcript

Masa aku di djaman universiti dulu, I was not known for my ‘hardworking-ness’.  Aku selalu tido je walaupun semua org tgh struggling wat esemen, projek, test and all the what-not. Shira and Asiah (my x-rumets) can testified to that.

Masalahnye, aku sedar aku ni pemalas, tp nk bgn dr tdo and study tu…heiii…sebahagian hidup! (And mebi aku leh salahkan UTP sbb sediakan prasarana yg selesa? Hahaha) Lepas tu ade hati plk nk mengadu kt rumets yg aku risau, caner la result peksa aku nnt ni.

Then masa grad dulu, aku balik awal atas sbb yg tak dpt dielakkan (will tell you all what really happen during this time in the near future. Hihi). So transkrip tu aku mntk tlg Asiah tlg amekkan sbb dia ddk area Wangsamaju je. Sng aku nk collect.

Theeeeen…masa nk amek dr Asiah tu, Asiah ngusik aku kata “hebat gila ko Miza. Aku tgk CG ko 3.5 something. Asyik tdo pun leh score”. (Ye, walopon korg dgr tu mcm kutuk, tp aku dh sygkn minah sekor ni to the point klu dia kutuk pun aku rasa itu lawak. Hahaha)

I was puzzled with the remarks until I saw the Final CGPA written on top of the transcript. It showed…

…3.53!!!!

Holy God!

Macammana aku leh dpt CG byk camtu? Aku pun pelik gk tgk CG tu sbb tak masuk akal ok. My CGPA during second last semester in UTP was…err…reaching 3.  Then masa final sem, I was shy 0.02 points from Dean’s List. So macam mana Cumulative Points aku leh tetiba jd 3.5??? Pelik tak?

Aku ngadu kt bf aku, dia kata “Klu awak score 3.5 then dia tulis 3 pointer, then barulah valid klu awk nk merungut. Ini dia kasi higher. Bersyukurla. Pinjaman MARA tu kira free la.”

PAstu aku terdiam. OKla, betul la tu dia letak CG aku lagi tinggi so watpe aku nk merungut, but still… rasa cam guilty plk sbb mcm I don’t deserve that. Hey, I know la what with my good luck charm and everything memungkinkn benda yg impossible tu jd possible. Tp ini waaaaay beyond lucky!

Tapi klu nk jadi budak lurus, naif dan baeeek sgt pun, aku ni still pemalas. So aku mcm mls nk trn Perak just sbb nk suruh derg tkr CG aku jadi…errr…lebih rendah. Lagipun let me tell you, staff UTP sure akan wat muka tak puas hati sbb tambahkn keje derg (ok, aku still igt the kerek-ness of some of UTP’s staff) . And for sure aku kene byr utk tukar transkrip. Walaupun silap tu mebi punca dr derg.  So pehal plk aku nk nyusahkn diri dtg balik ke pekan koboi tu, jumpa staff kerek and have to pay some money some more utk turunkn CG aku?

Sounds pretty stupid to me… Hahaha

I made a few discoveries today:

  1. I have become fairer. Sbb masa beli foundation maybelline semalam, I bought the ones yg a few shades lighter than I used to buy. Then ada collegue tegur “Miza nmpk berseri hari ni”. I was tempted to say “Pki la maybelline angelfit foundation baru!” but then I just smiled and say thnx je instead. Waaaaa…betul la kata mak aku, klu dh keje nnt jd putih.
    (Dulu masa kecik aku sll merengek kt mak aku nk kulit putih cam anak jepun. My mom pujuk kata “Nnt along dh keje, putihla nnt”. Hehehe)
  2. There’s a very thin line between terharu and upset. Somebody cross my personal boundary and I feel not quite comfortable with it. Tapi macammanala mau cerita kt sini… Too personal. 
  3. Aaaaand…somebody have a talent nk jadi paparazzi. Bygkn aku avoid2 mcm nk gila, ditolong plk oleh best fren aku cum personal bodyguard, he still can find me. Itulah aku kata…tak tau nk rasa impressed ke nk rasa annoyed.
  4. I have the best birthday ever! Smlm I shopped till I drop. Now I’m RM400 poorer. Sigh. Sikit betul nilai duit sekarang… (Itu nasib baik I exercised some self-control - albeit with external help in a form of my boyfriend, hehehe - klu tak, tak tau berapa byk lagi leh hbs)
