It fascinates me everytime i read a blog from someone that has so much life that is totally opposite of how my current life is like in his/her blog content. Opposite here means things we do everyday and things we do for a living regardless to your body (literally) or your friends or a job.  Words can lie, you can lie as much as you want in letters but you cant lie from photos unless it is photoshopped. But if you know a person so well in terms of their living or job or type of friends or type of colleagues…and all that, secrecy is penetrable but its compulsory to have to guard it, words they wrote is a worthwhile read.

New social cultures are rising like mushrooms with the help of facebook and internet. Wild fashion styles are booming. Teens and young adults shops and wears western and eastern clothing with various hairstyles. So all that is happening now, i think having this kinda hair is still acceptable by the public. 

So far exposing myself to my officemates, responses from are mostly positive. Some even never seen the kind of style or heard. Some thought its a new trend these days, but to me this is an ancient hair style practiced by the American native red indians. Most of colleagues decided to call me mohawk or mohican (red indian tribes mostly have this kinda hair).

Honestly I have no intention of copying from anybody or starting a new hair trend. I just wanna do something different for a change and look good at the same time, and i think its gonna permanent on me for maybe couple years…we’ll see. Hahaha

I havent been able to have time to visit this place after I’ve been promoted to a new position at my work place. Promoted after just 4 months of work. I was so grateful. But then again, the workload is more than i had hoped for.  Instead of doing hands on work, my new duty is more towards managing network systems meaning I’m back deskbound jobs with all the spreadsheets all around.

Other than that, all is well. I do miss writing here. I do have so.many things to write about and photos to share but the problem is I no longer have home internet connection.  Currently searching hard for the best deals from local telcos.   Now there are 4Gs and LTE coming up.

Can’t wait to have connection back again.

I have SO many things to write and share in here and LOTSA photos to put up. But that will have to wait. It is 6:23am here in Malaysia (at this point). So I have to be ready for work. Till then….

What a day!!~

It is the day all Muslims around the world to celebrate a festive celebration, the Eid-ul Mubarak. It marks the end of the month of Ramadhan and its the first day of Syawal according to the Islamic calendar. Friend and family gather and attend to open houses full with food and entertainment. Meeting old family members, cousins, aunts, uncles, and distant family members, asking forgiveness and pay respects to the deceased family members at the Muslim cemetery.

But most of the lively activities happens during Eid is the food. So much food to be eaten after a month of fasting. All that emptied space of our stomach, this is the right time to fill it in. Its like to fill the balance of goodness and not-so goodness of life…hahaha.

Anyways, I would like to use this opportunity to wish all the Muslims out there, around the world a happy Eid-ul Mubarak, and to all the Malaysians happy holidays, happy 54th independence day, and last but not least, Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!!!!~

Malaysians already started or already packed to move back to their hometown.  There are less cars on the road since Monday.  Seems like almost 30% of KL folks are gone back home or else there would be a traffic update and congestion somewhere on my way home from work (in KL).  To me it still too early.  But yet again, over the past 10 years, getting a bus ride home is like a huge hassle here.  So everybody had to either go home one week earlier (by car) or buy (a bus or train) ticket one month earlier or stay back and wait till the big day and THEN you start walking/riding/whatever.   This whole event is called “the Balik Kampung” season (means going back to hometown in Malay).

All Malaysians do this every year, not just the Malays/Muslims but everybody the Chinese, Indians, and others…  The energy and spirit of this event is incredible (out of ideas of words to describe the huge feeling of this whole event whereas I’ve celebrated this festive season since I started to know how to walk).

Friday prayers (fasting month) Masjid Jamek, it was a hot day, and those who got there late or didn't get to the rooftop area will definitely feel the scorching heat. I was late too so had to stay behind a big pillar for shade plus i get this view to capture.

I thought I could capture some moments of events during working hours of the fasting month for the album for my blog.  Who knows I might not be able to capture any next year or the year after that.  Since i started working at a company based right in the center of the capital of Malaysia, I get the chance to perform Friday prayers at one of the oldest mosque in the country, Masjid Jamek.  I never thought in my life I would step foot into this place ever.  To me this place was like a moon (which I’d never thought of stepping foot on it if I were to go from my house or work).  I’m so grateful for that, Thank you God.

The architecture of this mosque, I mean the age is pretty old, but the restoration made it look new and wider.  I didn’t manage to bring my DSLR with me to capture the whole building, coz it would be too flashy to bring during prayers…hahaha.  It would’ve been a great 17mm and 85mm subject to shoot.

Before I end this post, I would like to take this opportunity to wish all the Malaysians and Muslims around the world:: Happy Eid-ul Mubarak and Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir dan Batin!!!!
