Pok FC Fuseball Tourney

At 12.30 pm I received an SMS from Da'a requesting everyone to be at Zaitun's place 3.30 sharp. At 2.oopm I was still in a middle of doing my laundry and but... arghh sod it, I took a quick shower and went to Said's place for lunch. I had help him cook earlier.

I was at Zaitun's 10 minutes to 3.30 only to find Da'a and Zaitun without any signs of the others. Well its too early anyway I said to myself. 4.30 theres still no sign of the others. I was starting to get pissed off when Kent arrived looking cool as always followed by Syikin, Ikhwan, Wafi and Fariza. I just have to accept the fact that time will never be an essence for them and live with it.


The tournament finnally begun at 5.00


There were 4 teams:


Brain Freeze (Zaitun and I)
Bolos Saja Dinding Itu (Da'a and Ikhwan)
Sexual Seduction (Wafi and Fariza)
Giants (Syikin and Kent)


The preliminary round was held in a league format where each team had to play 3 games. The environment at Zaitun's (POK FC Club House) simulate a real stadium. Our team came out with the most original war cry / chant "Ohhh Brain Freeze" unlike the Bolos team with their replica chant "Bolos Saja Dinding Ituuu" taken from a popular tv programme. At the end of the preliminaries, Giants lead with nine points and all other teams tied with three. They were unbeaten in all three matches. What a tough nut to crack. Giants has qualified themselves to the final while we have to go for another round of qualification by playing each other.



Bolos Vs Brain Freeze

While we battling nervously for a place in the final, Kent was busy in the kitchen preparing dinner. The menu was Mee Goreng Mamak.


In the qualification round Brain Freeze nailed the games by winning both matches. The matches were nervebreaking especially during the match with Sexual Seduction. "Baby, calm down.... breath". Fariza had to calm Wafi who was by far the busiest player at the table defending. Any lapse of concentration will cost you. I was sweating, we all were. Everybody was really took the games seriously, for pride and point to brag. Brain Freeze will meet Giants in the final. The 3rd and 4th playoff was won by Bolos.













We took a break and had our dinner. The Mee Mamak was actually quite good. Kudos to Kent.
















In the end Giants were crowned as a true champion. They beat Brain Freeze 2-0 in the final. What a night it was. The final standing was



1. Giants
2. Brain Freeze
3. Bolos
4. Sexual Seduction

When it all concluded Da'a took the oppurtunity to promote his new business as a wealth advisor for Public Mutual Trust Fund. Well I am proud to say that I was his 1st client. Good luck to you bro. Wish you all the best.. and remember you promised me a paid vacation with my spouse to LONDON when you make your first million.

Kamus Loghat Muar / Tangkak

Aku dilahirkan di Muar (Muo kata orang Muar) dan dibesarkan di Tangkak. Walaupun bahasa melayu diambil daripada bahasa Johor/Riau, tetapi orang-orang Muar dan Tangkak mempunyai gaya bahasa yang sedikit berbeza apabila bertutur. Arwah Tok Tan aku misalnya, mempunyai gaya loghat yang 'distinctively Tangkak'. Banyak perkataan-perkataan yang biasa dituturkan masyarakat Muar dan Tangkak yang aku telah lupa. Jadi sebagai tribute  untuk Arwah Tok Tan dan orang-orang Muar / Tangkak, aku akan cuba untuk menyenaraikan sebanyak mungkin perkataan dalam loghat Muar / Tangkak apabila aku teringat. Ampar (sebutan Am-po) = Hamparan, permaidani Anu = Si folan = Dia ke tangkak dengan si anu tu, anak Noh Itik. Basan = pakaian basahan , pakaian harian Berlengas = Badan melekit Bersendor = Berdengkur Berteromba (sebut beteghombe) = Bermain-main, berlari-lari dan bersuka ria (kebiasaan oleh anak-anak kecil dalam rumah), Centong = Senduk Endut = kekasih - Kau dah ada endut ...

Hujan Emas di Qatar

Lately makin ramai pula kawan-kawan rapat aku di Doha ni yang pulang ke Malaysia for good. Kadang-kadang rasa macam dah tak best pula tinggal di sini bila satu demi satu teman-teman yang rapat pergi. Baru-baru ni Rizal dan Zakiah meninggalkan Doha for good. Rasa sedih sangat, kerana Rizal adalah kawan pertama aku di Doha ni. Dia yang mengenalkan aku pada kawan-kawan Doha yang lain. Aku datang Doha ini pun setelah membaca blognya, 1001 Kisah Melayu Perantau  , yang memberi inspirasi dan keinginan untuk mencuba nasib di Qatar Darul Land Cruiser ni. Good Luck Rizal and Zakiah Kontrak aku dengan Qatargas ni pun akan tamat bulan November ni. Tak pasti dapat sambung ke tidak, kerana aku ni 'project based'. Kalau tak dapat sambung, dan tak dapat peluang-peluang lain di Qatar ni, maknanya aku juga akan menurut jejak langkah teman-teman yang telah mengucapkan 'Maassalamah' pada negeri tumpangan kami ni. Honestly aku suka Qatar. Isteri aku, Hani pun suka tinggal di sini. Kedua-du...

Dad to be

Image
Hani was constantly nauseated and tired since we got back from our Eid holidays. I suspected that she’s pregnant but she was scared or maybe too nervous to try the home pregnancy test kit. We had a couple of false alarms before. It would frustrate her if it turns out negative. Suddenly I received an SMS from her saying ‘mom to be’. I called her and she did the test at work. I was overjoyed. I broke the news to some of my work colleagues and decided to come home early. I took Hani to Al-Ahli hospital for test and consultation, but the only available slot was in 10 days. We can’t wait that long. So we went to Gulf Laboratory and she had a blood test. We had dinner while waiting for the result. We went to Thai Snack as Hani suddenly had a crave for tom yum. But she threw it all up when we finish eating. We went back to the laboratory and the result came positive. We were elated. I shook hand with the doc. Hani was 6 weeks pregnant. So all this time during Eid she was already pregnant, but...
