Hipokrit!



Duduk seorang diri di Wisma Pelajar 1, pintu tertutup dan terbuka sendiri dengan perlahan-lahan. Tiada tangan yang menolak. Persis cerita hantu. Waktu makan tengah hari. Perut sudah memainkan alunan keroncong, irama Melayu asli. Tetapi angin sepoi-sepoi bahasa di puncak bukit ini memang menyamankan. Ditambah panorama menghijau sekeliling. Ah, tenang sungguh rasanya! Waktu cuti memang mendamaikan. Jauh dari hiruk-pikuk suara manusia. Atau kelibat-kelibat yang lalu-lalang.

*****

Seringkali kita berkata, "Jangan menilai seseorang berdasarkan luaran mereka". Mangsa keadaan. Parah. Pilu. Mungkin pada mata yang memandang, itulah tafsiran mereka. Sedangkan berbual di alam nyata tidak pernah. Walaupun selalu bertembung. Menegur cuma 'hai' sepatah, sekadar berbasa-basi. Mungkin pernah berbual, sekali atau dua, jarang-jarang, dan bukan untuk tempoh yang lama. Masakan boleh dibuat penilaian daripada tempoh sesingkat itu?

Jangan samakan dunia realiti dan alam maya. Manusia boleh menjadi seramah-ramah manusia di Facebook atau Twitter, namun di alam nyata, keadaan mungkin berbeza. Manakan sama alam ciptaan manusia dan alam ciptaan Ilahi. Mungkin juga personaliti ramah itu terbawa-bawa ke dunia visual. Namun, adilkah menilai seseorang itu berdasarkan tweet atau post yang berkemungkinan tidak mencerminkan sepenuhnya peribadi beliau? Mulut senang berbicara, "Kenal la dia betul-betul dulu, baru la boleh nak cakap apa pun". Atau mungkin apabila sudah menjadi mangsa keadaan, pantas pula melenting, "Kau tak kenal aku, apahal nak cakap macam tu?" Wajarkah begitu, apabila diri sendiri melakukan perkara yang sama terhadap insan lain? Kata orang, jangan buat dekat orang, benda yang kita tak nak orang buat dekat kita. Mudah. Terlalu mudah. Tapi secara praktikal, berapa ramai yang mengaplikasi?

Tak dinafikan first impression itu penting. Tapi ini bukan first impression! Lain keadaan antara first impression dan bila dah agak lama kenal. Kenal secara permukaan, luaran sahaja. Senang pula menjatuhkan hukum terhadap seseorang, berdasarkan status-status di alam maya. Tanpa mengenal peribadinya secara mendalam terlebih dahulu. Mungkin ada sebab beliau buat begitu? Ah, kau tidak tahu! Sebab itu mudah bagi kau membuat kesimpulan.

*****
Nafas ditarik dalam-dalam. Terngiang-ngiang kalimat itu di telinga. Harus diambil dari sudut positif. Kecamuk hati ditahan-tahan. Tidak semurah itu air mata untuk jatuh berguguran. Lagipun, rakan baik telah berpesan, "Jangan menangis lagi, please. Please". Biarlah apa orang nak kata. Cuma lepas ini elakkan. Cuba jangan terlalu bermanis mulut. Jangan terlalu ramah. Jangan terlalu baik. Walaupun dengan orang yang rapat. Konon memahami. Azan Zohor usai berkumandang. Kerusi ditarik. Suis kipas ditutup. Haruslah segera menyambut seruan Ilahi!

Randomness

Assalamualaikum and hello :)


Today post is about my past activities. 
I know it's quite annoying but I feel like writing 'em here today.


Last weekend I went back to my uncle's house in Seremban. To avoid from being a full time nerd, I followed my cousin to Port Dickson. It was my first time there and believe me, I dislike PD. Because I grow up near beaches and I have higher expectation for PD and my bench mark is high, that PD not even reach half of it. Enough saying. Then that evening, we went to City Park, in Seremban 2. Just for fun. Back to college right after that. The end.

So, hello new long weekend. 5 days of holiday and I'm right here, stuck in this so called world school. Due to some works to be done, I have to stay and be the penunggu kolej :D It's rare for me not going home whenever the chance is there. Tsk tsk. *kesat air mata*

My classmates are so random. On Tuesday evening, the girls were having rooftop rant, and the next day, the boys were planning some other random things. Went to JJ and played bowling. Only Ashmeer can be considered as the most skillful player. Lain semua hancur especially Zairi. And to make my classmates are more random, they forced Tiha to play as well, even she was wearing baju kurung at that time! The toughest thing to do - decide on what to eat for dinner when you're outside the college. Discussing the matter in the middle of the route -,- Luckily nobody knows us there.


We end up eating at Pizza Hut. 7/21 pun dah kecoh.


And today, I went to Mid Valley. I met these guys about 4 years ago when I went to Japan and that was the last time I saw them. So we decided to meet up and updated stories about ourselves. At the same time I would like to spend some money on food as I want to treat myself with something good. Usually I treat myself with food. Good food. Guess what? We stayed for 2 hours in Sushi King. Makan sekejap je, sembang lama.


Meet my Chinese friends, Jeremy and June


And when we parted, I continued my journey to treat myself with food with Diyana. This time at Baskin Robin, for the first time ever. Luckily I got it's voucher, if not, I wouldn't dare to go there. Extremely expensive!


This one will cost you RM16.80 without voucher


And I'm looking forward this Monday as my classmates are planning to watch a movie together. Some good time together before having our final examination in May! Pray for us :)



p/s: the extended birthday presents :D


DVD set on 12th January, pashmina and books both on 14th January.












enough of my random ranting, 









cheers,
ilhamnadia !

Turning 20


It's 10.40 p.m. and the magic cast upon Cinderella ends at 12.00 a.m. So do mine. Well what? Yeah, today finally officially I turned 20. No more 'teen'age they said. Alhamdulillah, still given the chance to breathe on this world.

If I'm a Japanese, turning 20 will be something that they are getting excited about. A ceremony will be held where all girls that turn 20 that year will wear their best kimono there. And, what's more special is that only 20 years old is not pronounce as nijyussai but HATACHI since it is that special :) sai in Japanese Language means age.

I purposely hide my birthday on Facebook. And the result? No birthday post at all on my profile, just from my biological sisters. Hewhew.

But it was quite different from Twitter.












So, celebration? Haha. It started with Aisyah phone call. Again, she's the first one to wish me, for the third year :D And then came the most of the floor members and sang 'Happy Birthday'. I thought that was a cute one :') And a card from my 3 beloved girls, just like last year :D My twin? As usual, treat me for my lunch. This time, it was Johnny's. Steamboat awhh~

Then came in the text messages and phone calls from le bestfriends. Sorry Shazni. All the way from Egypt. I didn't manage to pick up the phone since I wasn't in my room :( I love you baby :*

Thanks Jazz, Puteri, Adib, Iefa, Ilham, Piki, Syahi, Ash, Ro, Adik, Andrew, Ali, Ayu, Hilman and the one I didn't expect at all, my beloved June, for those wishes through SMS.


A watch, Studio Ghibli's DVD, and birthday cards :)

Birthday presents - for the time being-
as well as double benjo from A'isyah !

And the present from my SSP mates was the most unpredictable which causes everybody to question me whenever they see it. Sorry, private and confidential. No photo is available ;p

So, what do I feel one the first day being 20? Haha. I feel quite different. Cewah. Must get myself used to this. Am no longer a kid, have to be more matured. Okay? And, most of my friends who wished my birthday told me this. "Boleh la nak kahwin. Kitorg tunggu kad." Oh my, I feel rather old now :x

And this ! From a collegemate who performed on AJL stage with Azlan :)



edited at 1.15 a.m.

I received a call at 12.17 a.m. from AZIM and ROBOT. It was hilarious. Trust me. These two guys never fail to make me laugh like an insane woman. As requested by them, I'm using bigger font for their part :> calling me when the magic was out, and sang happy birthday song whole heartedly. TERHARU! The president and vice president did that. Awww, I feel honoured. And I hope that I can get a little bit taller ;p
