Yesterday evening dad took home some “karipap” and “Seri Muka”. They were very, very delicious – it should be cos they were from Pak Cik Suhaimi (Uncle Suhaimi). Thank you, Pak Cik Suhaimi – we really miss your cooking.
Pak Cik Suhaimi is a very good cook. Among my favourites are his Laksa Johor, Roti Jala [...]

Both of my parents are from Kuala Terengganu and studied in Sultan Sulaiman Primary and Secondary School (refer to The Sulaimanians). And I’m proud to say that my father was once the head boy of Sultan Sulaiman Secondary School.
Anyway, I was born and grew up in Kuala Lumpur; hence I am not that familiar with [...]
Precious vs Junk

I love to keep things of sentimental value and things that I can reuse in the future [after all we should recycle!]. But the problem is… that means I just want to keep everything!
Rare and beautiful candy wrappers, pretty seashells , nice boxes, colourful pamphlets [especially from Cold Storage!], interesting articles, cereal boxes [the [...]

Last weekend I learnt a few new (Trengganuspeak) words- ma’nga, pongoh and ‘ngamok.

But children who are [...]

As I was reading (a poem) “Kemanusiaan” by Usman Awang (from ‘Sasterawan Negara: Usman Awang Edisi Kedua’ by Zurinah Hassan, DBP), I came across a word ‘Air Terjun Niagara’ or The Niagara Falls. All at once, I was transported back to the most magnificent place I’ve ever been to!
The Niagara Falls (consists of The Horseshoe [...]
I wonder what control ones emotion? Sometimes I experienced emotional swing- a moment I was happy and suddenly the next moment I was sad. Odd isn’t it?
I hate to say that I can lose my temper easily! And I can easily cry too. And sometimes overwhelmed with joy that I just wanted to sing silly [...]

Yesterday my little brother, Ahmad Ali asked dad if it will still rhymes if he change the wording in the ‘Pussy Cat’ poem to…
Pussy cat, pussy cat,

To see Awang Goneng.
Dad laughed and said yes it’ll rhymes perfectly but only if we read it in Trengganuspeak…
Pussy cat, pussy [...]

About Myself
I'm currently 14 and I am homeschooling. I'm supposed to be in Form 2 but I'm currently studying Form 3. My favourite subjects are Mathematics, Science and Computers Studies. I love to sketch, write poems, collect stamps, coins, bank notes, stickers and seashells. And my blog is where I write about myself, things that goes on around me or things that I wish to share with everyone :)
