how lame can it be?

I'll always remember
It was late afternoon
It lasted forever
And ended too soon
You were all by yourself
Staring up at a dark gray sky
I was changed

In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry

The moment that I saw you cry

It was late in september
And I've seen you before (and you were)
You were always the cold one
But i was never that sure
You were all by yourself
Staring at a dark gray sky
I was changed

In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry

I wanted to hold you
i wanted to make it go away
I wanted to know you
I wanted to make your everything, all right....

I'll always remember...
It was late afternoon...
In places no one would find...

In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry



I know its a boring copy-paste entry... =P

Pretty Dubai...

Dubai markets itself thru great PR write ups and positive and marketable image mainly potraits from mega projects like Burj Al Arab, Burj Dubai, The Palm and The World Island. There is a joke saying Dubai is turning into desert wonderland with more toys for the riches.

One of our principle who visited Dubai for the first time was quite impressed during his BIGBUS city tour,"Dubai has the biggest highway, the tallest building, the biggest shopping mall, the fastest growing economy and...What else?"

We were just laughing to his feedback. I felt the same way too when I was new in Dubai. I was impressed by the development and revolution that has taken place. I used to dream working here and driving one of the Porsche or fancy sport car on Jumeirah Beach Road. Cool!




To me, it is a great success that they have turned a sandy desert into one of strong and growing regional economy hub. Now, they are learning from Singapore to expand their potential, not to look up on Singapore but if a small island can turned to be strategic economy hub for Asia Pacific, just imagine the UAE leaders ambitious behind their decision to have a strategic understanding with Singapore.

Maybe in future, Dubai will be a new economy power to come between India and China, or technology master to replace Japan, Korea and few EU countries.

mungkin nanti

Saatnya ku berkata mungkin yang terakhir kalinya
Sudahlah lepaskan semua kuyakin inilah waktunya
Mungkin saja kau bukan yang dulu lagi
Mungkin saja rasa itu telah pergi

Dan mungkin bila nanti kita kan bertemu lagi
Satu pintaku jangan kau coba tanyakan kembali
Rasa yang kutinggal mati
Seperti hari kemarin saat semua disini

Dan bila hatimu termenung bangun dari mimpi2mu
Membuka hatimu yang dulu cerita saat bersamaku
Mungkin saja kau bukan yang dulu lagi
Mungkin saja rasa itu telah pergi

Dan mungkin bila nanti kita kan bertemu lagi
Satu pintaku jangan kau coba tanyakan kembali
Rasa yang kutinggal mati
Seperti hari kemarin saat semua disini

Tak usah kau tanyakan lagi simpan untukmu sendiri
Semua sesal yang kau cari semua rasa yang kau beri

Bukan hari ibu...

Hari ini Ad menyaksikan 2 situasi berlainan masa dan tempat tapi dari dapat merasai kasih seorang ibu..

Awal pagi Ad perlu ke tingkat management office dan semasa tunggu lif, ada seorang perempuan kemas dengan office attire, fail di kepit dan make up untuk serikan muka. Melangkah dia masuk ke lif dan sebabkan lif penuh, terpaksalah Ad menunggu next trip. Sedang lif ke tingkat atas, dia melambai ke luar, dan ad lihat di belakang, kelihatan seorang wanita tua melambai sambil mulutnya terkumat kamit membaca doa...memohon kejayaan anaknya..Tidak dia henti membaca doa sehingga lif tidak lagi kelihatan...

Wanita tua itu berjalan ke lobby dan melihat pejabat-pejabat di tingkat atas, sebolehnya cuba melihat anaknya melangkah ke pejabat temuduga...Dan akhirnya dia melangkah keluar dari pejabat....Ad yakin walaupun sedang dia beredar, mulutnya tidak henti memohon doa...

Situasi kedua semasa lunch, Ad memilih tempat berhampiran Mcd..Sedang makan tu ada seorang ibu dengan dua orang anak...takdelah kecil sangat dalam usia 15-17 tahun seorang lelaki seorang perempuan...Sedang mereka berjalan depan mcd, tiba-tiba kedua-dua anaknya merengek nak aiskrim...Melihat si anak meminta, ibu setuju dan berikan wang untuk anaknya..

Haiisshh... =)

Mungkin ada hikmah Ad dapat melihat semuanya...

Sekian lama....

Ad banyak menghabiskan masa, meneroka kehidupan remaja sendiri di MMU. Disitu selama 4 tahun mengenal:

1) Rindunya pada keluarga - Tika kecil bergaduh dengan adik-adik, bila besar sunyi bila masing-masing berjauhan. Tika kecil mengadu dimarahi emak, bila besar rindu pada nasihatnya. Tika kecil takut garangnya ayah, bila besar gembira berjumpa boleh berkongsi cerita.
2) Erti persahabatan - Tidak semua kawan bergelar sahabat, tidak semua sahabat selalu bersua.
3) Erti cinta - Tidak abdikan diri dengan rasa sayang, tidak pula menghindari rasa kasih.
4) Erti kehidupan - Pengalaman mendewasa, bila jatuh jangan segan untuk bangun semula, tatih perlahan dan berlari bila mendapat corak. Jatuh bangun asam kehidupan.

Semua ini buat Ad makin kenal diri sendiri, dan bila mana mula kehilangan pasak kekuatan, setiap peristiwa bermain dan mengingatkan kedewasaan melalui pengalaman.

Setiap kali mendung datang, Ad percaya sinar matahari akan membuat jauh kegelapan.

Tetap dengan pendirian dan nawaitu tidak menyusahkan yang lain, semoga kita ketemu lagi.

Kini, bekerja dan mula mencari arah sendiri Ad cuba sesuaikan diri dengan rentak medan berlainan. Moga kemenangan penyudah untuk semua ini, moga tika umur mencapai 40, tidak menyesal corak kehidupan terdahulu, moga ketika ini ada kisah tauladan untuk diceritakan pada zuriat sendiri. Dan moga tika ini boleh tersenyum puas.

*Tersedar..

Jauh lagi perjalanan, takkan Ad hanya mengeluh di tengah jalan dek halangan kecil di tengah.
