Sweet n sour deal by Malaysia Airlines (MAS)

Last 4 days, I have received a newsletter from MAS. I usually do not bother about what ever newsletter comes in. But on that day,  I was 'accidentally' clicked on that email and I saw "Penang from MYR238 (return)".

EH........ 238.... /2..... wow. (why /2? return flight) 

I clicked on the lovely purple BOOK NOW button with an excited-heart-beating rhythm. 

Let say if I select the following date...

The best deal is from MYR51. How cheap is that for a trip with MAS air-plane! I was too excited enuf. But... how about the tax and fuel surcharges? It costs me just a little bit (2 to 3 ringgit) higher than my flight ticket. My brother did asked me to check with the other air-plane service... our favourite one, Firefly. I have selected the same date and time, and guess how much does this company is going to charge me... 2 times of the total cost of this (MAS) return flight sweet deal. That is not sweet at all!

Maybe some you've said... why don't I choose Air Asia?

I proceed with the booking process with MAS. Everything went smoothly until....

Payment.

Declined.

Reason 1: Address of the credit card billing is not valid.

I have corrected and resubmit.

Reason 2: Credit card number field is empty

I have corrected and resubmit.

Reason 3: Address of the credit card billing is not valid. Attempted maximum ... .... Please contact our call centre 1300883000.

With my prepaid balance RM1.20, I make a call to the call center.

I have to wait for 2 minutes for their FOC advertisements (while I am paying for the phone bill), and another waiting time was for a few level of options list until I reach the option to talk with the operator (which is none until I key-in the invalid button). When I did managed to talk to the operator, the first thing that I have said, 

"Hi, I am Shakirah, I have a problem with my booking tix but my prepaid is about to finished. Boleh tak you call I semula?"

Mr. Operator: Sorry puan, kita tak ada service untuk call pelanggan.

Me: Ok fine. I ...... bla bla bla.....

Mr. Operator: Puan guna browser apa?

Me: Chrome

Mr. Operator: Ok, puan booking lagi sekali guna Internet Explorer or Firefox.

Me: Then nanti I kene charge 2 times.

Mr. Operator: Tidak puan. Sebab tadi payment declined.... *call ended*

What.....?! Not nowwwwwwww.

Using Internet Explorer, the process was not that fast. I have to repeat the same process again with this crawling-browser. A...ha! Inside the Payment page, fields displayed in Internet Explorer were slightly different from Chrome. With just one click (and correct input), the payment has successfully made!

Unsupported web form... by using Chrome...

My feeling is mixing between excited, happy for this great deal and also annoyed with system. What ever it is, bare in mind that there is no harm to subscribe newsletter from certain organisations. You will be updated if there is any promotion.

Plan your holiday now and fly with Malaysia Airlines with the best price.

Don't miss it!

1st night terawih....

Salam ramadhan to every Muslim. How's your first day puasa? Mine is quite good.
Last night was our first terawih in Ramadhan month this year. I hope many of us were able to made it.. well at least 8 rakaat.

My evening was not that good... sadly. Before Maghrib prayer, my tummy feels not that good. I feel like hearing a thunderstorm inside it. I told my brother maybe I am not going. But then I feel quite guilty towards myself. I should not starts my Ramadhan with this lame excuse. I find the proper outfits and new telekung, given by my mother, and we went to the nearest mosque. Alhamdulillah. We managed to parked our car near to the entrance.

There were not many Muslimat yet. I managed to get a place on the 2nd saf (row). While waiting for the prayer time, I feel quite 'empty'. I miss my mother a lot because last year, I have spent the whole Ramadhan in Penang with her and my father. The numbers of jemaah are increasing until I saw many of jemaah perform their sunat prayer at the corridor. :( 


Mr. Bilal starts the azan and iqamah.

Alhamdulillah, I managed to perform Isyak prayer together with the sunat prayer on before and after. Then it's time for tarawih. I was so excited!!

Everything went so well until... the imam starts with surah Al-Baqarah... "Alif Laam Miim". Suddenly I feel something wrong with both of my feet. I have tried to focus and starts taking a very deep breath. But the imam's voice is getting slower. I feel like to faint. I have tried to keep on standing but I know I can't stand longer. I will collapse. This will be much worse and will disturb other jemaah. I have decided to sit down on my feet. Then I can starts feeling the breeze from of the fans. I can feel my face and body are all sweats. I feel better than just now. Then I just proceed the prayer by just sitting. Ya Allah, I feel so small. All makcik2 can stand and pray. While me? I have to sit to pray. At the first place, I was thinking to just back-off. But Islam is not cruel at all. If I cant stand to pray, I can just perform it by sitting. Either I want or not. I said to myself, I dont care what ever people think about me, what I care is I was there and I want perform the prayer. I continue with the prayer until it completes 8 rakaat. Alhamdulillah. Allah allows me to perform the solat sunat tarawih although in the hard way. 


Subhanallah. Allah the Almighty. Alhamdulillah I am still alive and breathing.


Ok... the following part is not really related with the previous story but it is related to what happen after the prayer....

When we're on the way back home, I said to my brother I want an ice cream from McD. Sundae Chocolate. Yummy.... but suddenly... the drive-thru way is blocked! He said NVM, he will get it for me. But..... the McD is actually closed for reconstruction! Why WHY whyyyyyy?! What a frustrated dream to have sundae after I was about to faint.

A picture is worth a thousand words

Kat Facebook sekarang ni banyak sangat komen and picture salah seorang menteri dancing masa Hari Belia 2012 minggu lepas. Which the menteri is a man and I think the couple is a man too. (okay. Dont get me wrong. I am not saying that he is a gay). Lelaki dancing dengan lelaki, okla. Tak haram rasanya.

Mungkin lepas tengok picture dibawah, ramai yang boleh kata I am watching video luc*h sambil makan and minum minuman 'keras' pulak.

kan Shinchan tengah pakai underware tu. kan3.

LOL

Owh... it is air nescafe O panas untuk menangani monday blues.

Nak tips kurus?

Hey Hey Hey...
today +- 3 minggu dah mula keje. So far so good. The 1st and 2nd week was my honeymoon week since I took my own sweet time in preparing the teaching material. During the previous weeks, I eat so-so la. My routine breakfast was hash brown+macaroni/spaghetti. Lunch usually the same menu or bihun sup tauhu and milo ais kat Imrish cafe, and dinner nasi (herbal ponni) and ayam/ikan.

Bad diet routine.

And guess what? I think I have gained a few kgs during that 2 weeks. I couldnt fit nicely into a few outfits because it was too fit.

I realized it and I took an early action to cut-down my meals.

Here's my menu:
Very early in the morning (5.30am)

• 1 tblspn of Honey, Pamoga
• 1 glass of plain water
• Supplements (Vitamin C, B, E, and EPO)
• Organic oat drinks / Hi-Goat - goat milk

I combine normal breakfast and lunch meal. I will try to ensure that I have my lunch between 11am-1pm. Not exceed 2pm.

• Rice/spaghetti + Fish + vegetable
• Hot nescafe O / Hot green tea

I try to get home early everyday so that I can have an early dinner (6-8pm)

• Nasi herbal ponni (depends kalau sangat lapar) Limit to 1 cup (share by 2 adults) - skip this if tak lapar sgt
• Ikan/ayam/burger
• Teh O kurang manis

Before I sleep

• Organic vegetable drinks (Melilea or NHF) + Klorofil + Cuka epal

Through out the day, I will ensure I took 2-3 bottles of plain water.

I walk a lot too by climbing up n down 5 floors, and my car park is quite far (3 blocks away). I do it for every single day... sometimes with 3.5inch heels. @_@

After 4 days, I managed to pakai baju yang too fit before.

That's how it goes.

Owh I missed one point... this is the most effective way to reduce weight...

SUSAH HATI

the most miserable life will 'eat' you from the inside. This week is quite tense for me with so many problems and a deadline. When I get too tense, I usually lost my appetite and every time after I eat, I will go to the loo and also puke. It is tiring. But it works very well to reduce weight.

Ok.. the last point is not healthy at all. Dont puke on purpose, else u jadi bulimia and skeleton bergerak... which not pretty at all and its really bad for your throat.

citer seram ke? Tak kot.

Yesterday, I stayed back in the office sampai malam sambil melayan lagu Awie-dipenjara janji disamping membuat slide-slide untuk mengajar next week. I endup balik at 8.00pm. Who's my partner? Mana ada.. stay sorg2..lock the door and buat keje. Seram... boleh la. Kalau tak siap keje lagi seram kot! Then tepat kol8, nak balik la. Kunci je pintu bilik ni, ttbe rasa sunyi nye. sambil buat-buat cool aku pon pasang lagu yuna pulak. Apesal lif ni mcm jauh je. Elok aku tekan butang lif, lif terbukak. Dalam hati neves nih. jangan la ada apa2 yg 'ikut'. 

Pintu lif terbuka perlahan-lahan...

aku tengok kat lantai dia... macam ada kaki.... aku ttbe tergamam

Kemudian...

dengan perlahan aku termelatah...

"O... mak... kau..."

Lepas tu baru aku tersedar. EH, dorg manusia la. Orang tingkat 5. ada 3 orang perempuan. I was smiling sambil tak tahu nak pandang mana. Jenuh tahan nak gelakkan diri sendiri.

But dorg?

=.='

Memang pelik la orang tingkat 5 ni.

Color at the moment is black.

I am not complaining.

I am trying my best to make my blog as a full of colours of happiness and joys. The fact is grey and black are also a part of colours too.

Merenung sejenak, bermuhasabah diri. I asked myself. What do I want? The answer is not just as simple as I want a Ferrari. It is about who I want to share my life with, who am I in the next 10 years, what is my achievement, where do I live.. and the most important thing is... How am I going to reach those answers by winning everyone's heart and ensure no one will gets hurt?

Do you know that low self confidence is a poison in your life? I need to bring up this confidence level. It is tough when you are trying so best to stand up but there are so many things that bringing you down....

This... keep on looping on my mind... badly.

I keep on telling myself that the fear is just within yourself. Nothing to be afraid of unless melibatkan Allah and death. But the fear keep on haunting me.

Pressure.

There is a thing that keep on pressuring me. A b*itch keep on pressuring me. WTF woman. I did criminal zero. I dont even owe your damn father's money. Stop disturbing me.

I know... this is just a small matter. But have u ever know pasal Firaun yang mati hanya sebab seekor lalat? Although it is just a small thing (from your point of view) it is a big thing for me.

I am not sharing this matter with others because of no one deserves to feel so sad and bad because of me. I dont want to be a burden for anyone else... no more. Especially my family.

OK... I am just realized that I am writing terkeluar topik sudah.

I am talking rubbish... one here n there... this is how my mind's state.

This is...

painful.

Modus Operandi yang agak baru untuk samun/mencuri kereta

Sebelum  ini kita telah mendengar bermacam-macam cara yang dilakukan oleh penyangak-penyangak yang *tuuuuttt*. Semalam, 17 May 2012, di highway KL-Seremban (area kedai perabot besar tu),  my brother almost get trap dengan penyamun ni. Masa tu, he was driving kat lane biasa (tengah2). Then, ada 1 motorsikal ni riding by 2 Indian guy keep on honking and giving 'rolling' sign - macam tayar kereta pancit.

What will you do if you are in this situation?
A. OMG... I should stop. Thank you so much Mr. for caring so much about me.
B. Cry. WTH this people want.
C. Hold your steering, 'feel' your car. Once confirmed kereta tak drag ke kiri or kanan..... just speed up n left them behind.
D. Emergency brake and let them eat your buntut (car's).

My brother has chosen C. Speed trap pun speed trap lah. rather than kene samun n membahayakan nyawa. Then dia singgah di next petrol station and check his tyre... semua okay!

Dear friends, my family and myself, please pay extra careful especially kalau driving sorang2. Orang jahat ramai kat luar sana tu. Relax, and think rational! Dont panic.

Later, I will share another story mengenai operasi orang2 busuk otak ni yang I have experienced sendiri but luckily, Allah is with me and my family.

Selamat Hari Ibu dan Hari Guru 2012

Handmade Gift For Her

Posting kali ini bukan nak promote barang. Tapi nak share posting pasal pin tudung yang disiapkan dengan penuh kasih sayang (macam spongebob prepare Craby Patty).

I am purposely made this kerongsang for my mum sebab dah lama dah dia cari kerongsang yang satu batu. Sekarang dah zaman kerongsang panjang2 macam balung ayam. Mana nak ada yang 1 batu tu dah kan. Disebabkan banyak lagi manik2 dalam kotak tu, tiba2 petang ni dapat ilham untuk buat kerongsang sendiri. Perbezaan lainnya daripada kerongsang yang lain adalah kerongsang ini dijahit dengan menggunakan benang. Tak pakai gam langsung.

When she went back from school, she saw a piece of it. She was wondering, bila masa pulak dia beli. Since she likes it, I have decided to make another 9 pieces of the kerongsang (5 pasang la kan).

I told her, nanti when I am in KL, jangan pakai kerongsang ni sambil nanges pulak. :P
