Selamat Hari Jadi Intan
Today is her ... birthday, Insta Isma.
So, ahaks, of course, a post on some things I remember about her.
1. Rakan IU10 KPP, bidang yg dekat2 sama ... she Comp Sci, me MIS
2. My vice president during my reign :D as the IU Computer Club president.
3. Setiap kali lalu Kompleks Sukan Datuk Keramat, dekat stesen Jelatek, mesti ingat majlis perkahwinan beliau yang diadakan di situ, di mana me n Errol was invited, which leads to No. 4
4. Ingat lagi this conversation we had with her, masa tu. She got married before Ramadhan, so takut dia boleh terbatal puasa atas sebab dot ... dot .. ;) dia kata, " Takpe, I dah tanya ustaz. Apa2 pun, I berbuka dulu ... then .... dot dot dot .... " :D for an innocent moir masa tu ... I was like, Dangggg .... hehehe
Selamat hari jadi, my friend and forever VP :D ... all the best!

10 Benda Tentang Errol Zambrin Tajuddin
My wingman Errol turns 50 (FIFTY) LIMA PULUH TAHUN hari ini (May 4), jadi inilah 10 Benda yang saya ingat tentang beliau.
- Dia minum air suam SAHAJA most of the time.
- Dia dulu suka makan breakfast roti gardenia dan telur rebus.
- Dulu masa majlis kahwin saya, bila saya sebut dalam ucapan yang Errol adalah 'my wingman', dia terus angkat tangan big fist.
- Peminat tegar Kenny G dan yang introduce den kepada pemuzik saksofon tu.
- Masa majlis nikah beliau, beliau duduk bersila berhadap dengan tok kadi, dengan gaya serius dan confident.
- Rajin cakap 'Follow The Flow', bila den ngomel tentang problem masa our 20s.
- Tentang travel sama2 kami, beliau memang byk cadang idea. A good travel buddy.
- Kami suka lepak di Damansara Uptown Food Court untuk sesi makan dan borak2. Top favorite food - Chee Cheong Fun. Kaki Uptown je tahu tempat ni.
- He is our gang's con-man, aka Construction Man, sebab itu bisnes dia :D
- Most of all, he is a good listener, giving thoughtful advice dan always when I need him.
Selamat Hari Jadi, my friend. Here's to the next 50 Years!
MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU :)
Errol, may the 4th be with you

Tok Arab turns 50: The Songs of Tok Arab
He has reached a half-century of existence, so it is only fitting that these two songs remind me of him.
Stand Up (Kick Love Into Motion) - Def Leppard
In 1995, Me memang a big fan of Def Leppard, so it was a pleasant surprise that the dude likes this track from Adrenalize, album DL just released masa tu. We sang it a bit masa we were on our way to Sekayu for the Computer Club camping trip. Ada lagi cerita lagi involving him and this girl tentang Sekayu, tapi I save it for later la :P
I remembered he said it .. " aku suka lirik tengah2 lagu ni ... Little by little like a fine wine, My love is like a motor, Burnin' all the time .. apa u think maksudnya? " .. me being innnocent, did not think much about it ... pikir2 balik ... Azran ni love motor kot :D

Terima kasih Manisnya Cinta Anis Ayuni
Sekitar 2004, secara peribadi, saya memang agak 'down' pada masa itu. Masa itu, umur sudah 31, masih membujang dan masih mencari. Setelah berkali-kali direject oleh kaum hawa, memang lose hope untuk settle down.
Pesta buku KLIBF yang dianjurkan setiap tahun, macam biasa saya adalah pengunjung setia pada tahun ini. 23 Mei 2004, waktu petang, berjalan2 dari booth ke booth, sampai saya ke booth Karangkraf. Ketika melihat2 buku, buku in terus menarik perhatian saya. Cover VW Beetle merah :) yg saya agak unik bagi saya. Saya angkat buku ini, saya baca sinopsisnya. Seakan2 ada persamaan dengan situasi diri ini - mahukan cinta tetapi pesimis sama ada ia benar2 wujud. Baiklah, aku beli, detikku. Who knows, it might be a good read. Dan, setelah membeli, kebetulan, pengarangnya pun ada di kawasan penulis.
Saya dapatkan tandatangan beliau. Membahasakan diri kak Anis, beliau mengucapkan terima kasih atas pembelian.
Balik ke rumah, saya mula baca dan baca ... sehingga khatam berbelas kali pada tahun 2004. Feel watak utama Ifti Liyana amat berkesan sekali. I can feel her dreams and fears tentang cinta dan Nazmi. Dan ia memberikan saya harapan bahawa dalam diri ini, masih ada perasaan itu untuk mencintai dan dicintai. Terima kasih kak. :)
Sekitar 2013, apabila mendengar khabar novel ini akan diadaptasikan ke layar perak, saya teruja. Kak Anis ada update di facebook beliau tentang perkembangan-perkembangan adaptasi ini. Of course, saya beli novel edisi khas sempena filem ini :) (ada dua naskhah), dan menontonnya di pawagam apabila ia keluar. Watak Ifti oleh Faizura, dan watak Nazmi oleh Shaheizy Sam. It was an okay adaptation bagi saya. Bolehlah, bak kata biasa2. Dan selalunya, buku itu lebih best :D
Sebagai penutup, terima kasih Kak Anis atas buku ini :) One of the most meaningful books in my life.

A Lady Name Ena
This is Ena Yaacob.
I first met this lady in 1991, at PPP/ITM Shah Alam, where we were in the same English Accel class. First impression, was she is tall :) and she hung out mostly with Noreen (BCN121), as they were from the same school, BBGS KL, during that Accel semester.
At the end of that Accel semester, our class presented a play titled 'Mai' - Mother. She played the lead actress ... the heroine la kiranya ... Jeni played the mother ... Fariza played the evil character ... Hassanal (Jones) played the hero. Macam biasa, tragic ending. Directed by Ajak, and yours truly was the sound man (sound manager).
I always thought she was down to earth, and her giggly nervous laugh. Trademark dia oo ... then got to know her ayah is the Admiral of Lumut Naval base ... VVIP of Royal Malaysian Navy. Nasib baik den tak nakal2 dengan dia,ahaks.
In 92, a bunch of us had a trip to Pangkor, and on the last day, before balik KL, we went to visit her parents place at tbe Lumut naval base. It was on a hill. I remembered seeing her collection of Seventeen magazines at the book shelves. Banyak tu :) We were so honored to receive her family's gracious hospitality.
Upon finishing PPP/ITM, she went to Syracuse.
Balik from Syracuse, she worked for a while in business development at a local firm. During this time, I learned a new term from her - MBA. As she was busy travelling with business delegations during her employment, she met quite a few MBAs.
Sham - her beloved hubby who is from the University of Bristol (with a UK accent) deserves a mention. I went to their nikah ceremony, and they were lovely in white. I remembered the look on Sham's face selesai akad nikah. During the hotel reception, I remembered the story of how they met, as told by Hanz (IU9), a simple 'I've been watching you watching me' thing that happened during a hotel dinner.
After the wedding, dia pindah ikut Sham ke USA sebab Sham kerja di sana as a consultant. The first few years we had email exchanges ;) which I treasured. 'Made in Cancun' will always be remembered ;) They have 2 boys - a Tar Heel and a Tiger.
Thank you for the Skins cap Ena :)
My best wishes for your now and future!
* Dedicated to her 49th birthday and coming back trip this October 2022
