UniteFect di Sydney: Leman & Ahmad Dapat Points Lagi!


Fadli: 

Rakan rakan
Setelah 3 minggu menghambakan diri dengan kerja duniawi, barulah sempat nak tulis sepatah tua about the trip to Ozzie land with the one and only M.I.M.M friend.

Few things I never knew about Mior:
  • Rumah dia gila babi besar okkkkkkk…bungalow in Sydneyy…don’t play play… 4 or 5 bedrooms aku pun dah tak sempat kira….truly a Casa Impian for those who live overseas
  • Mior suka tengok foreign language movies…. French, German, Tunisian, Russian… Hollywood tak main
  • He closely follows the gossip stories of our local Malaysian artists !!...boleh?? siap tau siapa kahwin dengan Umi Aida la, siapa bercinta dengan siapa….dahsyatttttttttt
  • And the best part, he goes to bed earlier than a Primary school student…. By 9.30 dah berdengkurrrrrr ….how??
Attached are some photos from the trip… Mior and wife bermurah hati jadi my tourist guide/driver ….memang bestttt…..

Terima kasihlah saudara Mior kerana sudi memberi aku tempat tidur for 2 nights…halalkan makan minum… next time aku nak pergi semula tempat Arab yang buat Steak sedap tu…sampai sekarang teringat ingat…

inshaAllah ada rezeki ketemu lagi nooooooooooooooooo

Saya meminta agak markah diberikan kepada rumah Ahmad dan rumah Leman di atas usaha Murni ini untuk mengeratkan silaturrahim.


Mior:

Saya dengan rasa diri memohon agar AJK pemarkahan memberikan markah tambah kepada Sdr Fadli kerana sudi mengingkari arahan boss beliau, Ricardo utk tidak pulang terus ke Spore pada hari Jumaat dan memilih untuk meniduri rumah saya. Sekian harap maklum. Gambar2 akan menyusul kemudian dari kamera Fadli.

P.S: Fadli, sori tak return SMS hang, Virgin Mobile buat hal, block call out.

Kemudian berduyun2 lah email yg cuba mencocok & menghasut Epit sebagai Raja Betik mengambil tindakan.

Aku ingat nak cut and paste semua email tu, tp pikir2 balik - tak worth it lah, sbb blog tak leh panjang2 sekadar cukup makan nak meet KPI.

Of Kurang Ajar

Lately Yengko has become synonymous with “kurang ajar” and “biadap”.

First, the HM spent a good one hour or so cursing me and the batch in front of our seniors (Class of 90) during their 20th Year Reunion, not knowing that when you talk to one MCKK old boy; chances are he knows the person you are cursing and words will eventually go back to the person.

Lately, even elderly MCKK old boys use “adab”, “kurang ajar”, “warisan” etc. to deflect arguments they cannot answer. Let’s not get into the details because too much time has been spent on it anyway.

One of the brothers who had supported me all along in this sent an SMS to tell me to ignore and not feel disheartened by this. People do things for many reasons but rarely (especially nowadays) for selflessness.

School heads blame everything under the sun – the teachers, the boys, the Ministry’s guidelines, the building, the town – everything but himself for whatever that goes wrong in a school. But as the highest officer paid to look after the well being of a school (and along the way empowered to determine many routines and micro-policies of the school), surely the school head is also accountable for the majority of what went wrong in the school (if not all).

Other stakeholders will find other reasons as well. Some office holders are in comfortable liaison with school heads because their children are looked after well by the school or rewarded handsomely. So they choose to see what they want to see; after all their children are doing OK. They forget that they are entrusted to look after the welfare of everyone’s children in the school, not just theirs.

Likewise, it is a bit rich for some other stakeholders to talk big about respect when they no longer have direct interest in the school or in its immediate results. They do not have children in the school so even if 90% of MCKK products fail to get a call for scholarship interviews; they are oblivious to this because they are comfortable in their coffee houses reminiscing about their time when there was only 4 boarding schools in the whole country (hence, competition was different).

The concept of “menderhaka”, “kurang ajar” etc has been used often to justify many injustices or neglect. Condoning malpractices in our society becomes a norm on the basis we do not want to “menderhaka” or “kurang ajar”.

I am glad we did what we did.

The MCKK world out there can choose to make us an outcast, hurl unpleasant words to us etc. – but take comfort that we give voice to the voiceless; we give representation to the unrepresented.

My parents would not have had access to the high almighty like the big guns of MCOBA in the past and if the school was not conducive and screwing my future, they would have been hapless.

They might not be too good at teaching me manners; but they would have been proud and approved of what we did.

We did well and there’s nothing to be ashamed of it whatever the detractors say. We never took the conventional route during or after MCKK – no reason why have to start taking one now J

Farquar Haqqani, Class of 2006: Ranked 2nd In The World for A-Level History


Adik Farquar Haqqani (speaking) from Class of 2006 was ranked second in the world for the subject of History (Cambridge International Examination). Not bad eyh, Gedebe would be proud ha ha.

He was (and is) quite a lazy bum and always procrastinate (ha ha) but some people are born smart. 

He was the captain of MCKK English debating team in 2005 and 2006. In 2007, he was selected to represent Malaysia in the world debating championship.

He currently reads Economics at Warwick University. 

ps: Yeay one more blog posting!

Perkahwinan Encik Rudi Hakimi di Sabak Bernam

Saya tidak dapat menghadirkan diri kerana ada tugasan yang mendesak pada hari itu, jadi laporan perkahwinan kali ini telah ditulis oleh Sdr Radin. Mungkin juga sebab perkahwinan yang ini serba-serbinya Jawa; jadi lebih sesuai Mas Radin yang menulisnya :-)


Aku, idzam, gabai dan syam; yg mewakili setiap rumah sepatutnya menaiki bahtera grandis ke sabak bernam. akan tetapi, nakhoda epit terpaksa mengundurkan diri pada saat akhir kerana beliau terpaksa bergegas ke sungai petani untuk mengahadiri pengebumian arwah pakcik beliau. (Nota 1).

Perjalanan kami bermula dengan berkumpul di Restoren Ali Maju Pusat Bandar Damansara dan bertolak pada pukul 11pagi. Di awal perjalanan di susur keluar GCE, saudara chibiok sekeluarga menyertai untuk berkonvoi bersama dengan kereta aku. Perjalanan kami semakin sukar apabila tiba di daerah sabakbernam kerana hanya berpandukan peta kad kahwin yang tidak berskala dan ia lebih bermasalah apabila mesin peta garmin syam tidak memberi sebarang petunjuk untuk ke Bagan Nakhoda Omar.

Akhirnya, dapat jua kami sampai ke lokasi sebagai rakan2 kolej melayu pertama yg tiba ke kenduri cop. kelihatan dari jauh, si raja sehari tengah sibuk memotong kek.




Selepas bersalaman dgn ucapan tahniah, kami terus menjamu selera. Kemudian, saudara presiden, khalid yg ditemani kalai tiba. Kelihatan pula fitt sekeluarga dan pyan sekeluarga.

Tidak lama kemudian, tiba toy & isteri, mache & sekeluarga dan loque & isteri (kalau dah kawin, takleh claim monoloque kan?).. di kala sessi bergambar, tiba pula peah & isteri dan tungkid & isteri (dah kahwin kan?)...

Ternyata lauk pauk kenduri cop yg bertemakan masakan Jawa memang menyelerakan. kami semua siap tambah nasi & lauk. buat pertama kali di kenduri kahwin, ada hidangan kerang rebus.


(sila rujuk gambar chibiok & gabai). 

aku tengok kalai pun melantak sampai dua pinggan (dia konon segan nak tambah guna pinggan yg dah diguna, then selamba je ambik pinggan baru). loque pun dgn selamba tambah lauk sepinggan.

aku rasa semua org makan gile2 kerana takut lapar balik sebelum tiba ke kuala lumpur. ada ura2 yg nak berhenti kat ijok untuk makan burger kerana takut lapar di petang hari.

dessert yg dijamu pula tapai pulut yg boleh memabukkan kalau dihirup airnya. khalid pula teruja untuk mencuba lantas bangun mencari tapai di stesen makanan.

suasana menjadi gamat dgn hilaian ketawa chibiok & rakan2 apabila semua mengetahui bungkusan lipatan daun pisang yg disangka tapai itu rupa2nya ada nasi lemak di dalamnya.

sila rujuk gambar sebagai bukti khalid dah kena bang bang boom. 

Sambil menjamu selera, kami juga dihiburkan dgn nyanyian karaoke. agak teruja apabila terdengar satu lagu bell 80-90an dinyanyikan oleh seorang mamat yg punya suara yg sama sengau dengan suara presiden kita.

ramai yg keliru. makcik2 yg dibelakang meja kami juga keliru, nyata jelas dari ngomongan jowo mereka.


seperti di kenduri kahwin lain, puak 1yengko buat hal sendiri mcm pesta reunion batch. pelbagai jenaka dan hilaian ketawa. ada juga cubaan dari kalai utk ngomong jowo.

rekod kehadiran amat memberansangkan kali ini walaupun lokasinya jauh. Mohon saudara toy dapat muat naik gambar dgn pengantin dgn kadar segera utk tatapan rakan yg tak dpt hadir.

Sekian.

Nota 1: Citer Grandis ni dah jadi legend of epic (befitting Epit si Tuan Punya) proportion
