^_^ Swatch Touch 2011~~~

"it's not a crime to dream about having something that seems impossible to be own..because, by doing so, it will motivate us to struggle and fight to put some effort and learn how valuable it is.."


salam and greetings.
this time I will talk about one of the most wanted items by me hehe. mind me if this entry might be too selfish or get into 'berangan' mood. before we get more to know about this awesome thing, we have to admit that every and each person has their own preference or favourite item. so do I. for me, benda yang paling penting or perlu ada when I go out is a WATCH!!some might say that they have to bring their branded hand-phone, some might say that they need their full-of-money wallet and some might say that they deadly need their iPod touch,iPod nano or any 'i','i','i' goods when they go out. but, for me, I just need my watch hehe. 


orang cakap, kalau budak-budak perempuan ni lebih suka pi shopping baju, handbags, alat-alat make-up dan segala jenis girly things ni. malangnya, nuraqwajasbi is not too into all these items huhu. it is undeniable that female's nature is to always make sure that they will appear prettily, won't they?? but, it's different for me huhu(I wonder, why erk??) even my friends aware 'bout my obsess mengumpul jam Swatch hehe. some of them siap tegur,"aik!!aqwa, tadi rase pakai jam lain, sekarang ni jam lain pulak. berapa banyak jam ko ada ni??" huuhuu.tak kisah apa orang kata, yang penting, I HAPPY hehe.


berbalik kepada title entry kali ini, I would want to introduce(?) Swatch Touch 2011 yang menjadi antara my wishful items. kenapa Swatch Swiss?? kenapa tidak jam Rolex, Timez, Quartz or any other brands. personally, for me, Swatch is very trendy and the design is more into catchy and colourful style, it is also kinda cute and sometimes it can be sporty too. plus,the price is not too pricey or not too priceless(of course it is NOT, beratus duit aku habis nak kumpul jam ni huhu), it is just affordable, if I could say. 
Swatch Touch 2011 ni walau pun dikeluarkan on 2011, it is still not too late for me to own it right?? apakah features yang ada pada jam ini??
1) it is kinda sporty and futuristic
2) it comes in white, black, pink, purle, blue and army-style(celoreng)
I prefer this one huhu..
3) of course laa it is a touch-style watch, with wide LCD screen(jari jemari I yang tak berapa runcing ini boleh slide the surface dengan senang hehe)

4) it got 6 digital functions which are two time zones, date, chronograph, alarm, timer and beep 


anyone interested??(^_~)V

^_^ mind your manner(s) PLEASE!!


يَاأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا اصْبِرُوا وَصَابِرُوا وَرَابِطُوا وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ
“Hai orang-orang yang beriman, bersabarlah kalian dan kuatkanlah kesabaran kalian dan tetaplah bersiap siaga (di perbatasan negeri kalian) dan bertakwalah kepada Allah supaya kalian beruntung.” (Aali ‘Imraan:200)

salam and greetings.
entry kali ini ingin berkongsi tentang satu kisah yang berlaku secara langsung di depan mata kami sekeluarga. begini ceritanya, tengah hari tadi, kami satu family ni kuar ke bandar kota bharu nak pi cari barang sikit. kalau korang nak tau, jambatan yang menghubungkan jalan ke seberang tu sangat kecik dan sudaa tentulah akan menyebabkan jalan sesak. bayangkan dari jalan 3 lorong jadi 1 lorong bila nak naik jambatan tu. 


time tengah queue, my sis and I nampak ada sorang mamat(he's the driver kat lorong sebelah kete kami) ni bukak cermin kereta dia sambil pegang bottle air. kami pelik sebab tak kan dia nak baling kat kami kowt. rupa-rupanya, memang tu yang dia nak buat!! luckily, dia tak baling bottle air tu ke arah kereta kami tapi ke arah kereta yang kat depan kereta dia. kami pown pelik laa sebab apesal mamat bengong ni baling kereta orang laen tak pasal2. yang buat kami geram awek sengal yang kat sebelah dia tu boleh gelak-gelak gembira diatas perbuatan bodoh pakwenye. my mak cakap jangan tengok mamat tu sebab nanti dia buat benda jahat kat kereta kami pulak. so, my sis and I pown buat tak tau je la walaupun mulut kami tak henti2 curse mamat tu(but, still didn't use the 'f' word hehe).


kami still stuck di dalam kesesakan jalan walau pown hampir 5minit berlalu dan malangnya kereta mamat yang bengong itu still queue sebelah kereta kami huhu.semasa semua kereta tak boleh gerak sebab jammed, mamat tu tetiba keluar dari kereta dia.lepas kuar dari kete dia yang konon2nye mahal(?)  tu, dia terus pegi tendang bumper belakang kepunyaan kereta yang kat tengah queue depan kereta dia. kami sekeluarga yang nampak perbuatan tak senonoh dia terus terkejut!! WHAT THE HEAVEN!! apesal mamat ni hangin tak tentu pasal???!! pak cik berkopiah yang merupakan driver kereta yang ditendang tu pown kuar. mamat bengong tu terus jerit kat pak cik tu, "demo potong queue pastu garis keto ambo!! demo seda dok??!! acu tra check kete demo tuh!! bakpo nok wat calar keto ambo pahtu wak tok kaba???!!". TRANSLATION: "ko langgar kereta aku time potong queue!! ko sedar ke tak??!! cuba check kereta ko tuh!! kenape lepas langgar kereta orang lepas tu buat-buat tak tau!!"


mungkin mamat bengong ni tak sedar yang dia tengah bercakap dengan seorang pak cik yang berpangkat 'AYAH'. tapi, tak sepatutnya dia tegur kesalahan orang lain dengan makian, lebih-lebih lagi orang tu lebih tua daripada dia. tapi, even though orang yang calarkan kereta dia tu lebih muda or sama tua dengan dia, mamat bengong tu still tak ada hak nak maki orang!! pak cik yang penyabar itu hanya menggelengkan kepala dia pastu terus masuk balik kereta dia. pak cik tu tak balas sepatas habuk pon even mamat bengong tu cakap macam tu. yang tak boleh blah, mamat tu terus masuk kereta dia yang mahal(?) selepas dia jerit kat pak cik tu. bak kata my sis, "mamat ni CHICKEN rupenye~~~(sambil buat muka..:p)". 


tetapi, kami yang betol2 queue sebelah tempat kejadian tak nampak pown sebarang garisan yang menyatakan kereta pak cik tu tergesel dengan kereta mamat bengong tuh. okay laah, let say yang kereta pak cik tu betol 'tercium' sikit kereta mamat bengong, takkan laa pak cik tu tak perasan?? ingat ko sorang je yang tau sayang kereta?? rasenye, kereta pak cik tu lagi mahal daripada ko sebab ko kan seorang rakyat yang menyokong barang buatan tempatan sebab tu ko pown guna kereta tempatan. tak main la kereta import ni kan???
the moral of the story is, we MUST know how to respect others. by doing that, others will do the same to us. selalunya, kami akan berasa kesian kepada orang yang keretanye dilanggar. tapi, dalam kes ni, kami rase nak BOOO mamat bengong tu puas2. walau pown perbuatan(boo orang) itu adalah tidak bermoral, rasenye itu pown tak cukup compared to apa yang dia dah buat kat pak cik tu. bukan sahaje ditengking depan orang, pak cik tu jugak mungkin dituduh mencalarkan kereta dia. 
so, people, please mind your manners especially with others who might be older than us. just imagine kalau our parents yang diperlakukan macam tu. sedih kowt. kami tadi pown tengok pak cik tu macam sangat kesian sebab kena tengking tak pasal-pasal huhu. pepatah melayu pown ada menyebut "yang tua dihormati dan yang muda disayangi". macam mana nak gain respect from others kalau diri sendiri tak tau nak respect others?? one more thing, sifat sabar pown mesti dipupuk sebab disebabkan ketidaksabaran kita itulah yang menyebabkan marah senang sangat untuk menguasai jiwa kita. marah itu sifat yang disukai syaitan. bila marah, syaitan-syaitan akan bersorak keriangan. sudaa tentulah kita tak mau ikut perangai keji syaitan kan??


p/s: nuraqwajasbi jugak bukan lah seorang yang penyabar sebab guna banyak perkataan yang perlu digaris seperti ini, bengong, hehe. I want to apologies for the used of many inappropriate word(s) for my entry this time huhu..

^_^ american dervish review~~

salam and greetings. it's been a while after my last review on books or novels. so, this post is definitely and entirely will talk about one of the most wanted novel by me which is American Dervish by Ayad Akhtar. Actually, I first encountered this novel when I went to MPH in JJ Wangsa Maju with peeps before flying back to Kelantan. Unfortunately, didn't purchase it due to insufficient money hehe (the price stated of the book is RM50-something kowt huhu)..

the author, Ayad Khan, and the cover of American Dervish
Firstly, let's go through the methodological aspect in order to explore the meaning of the title which is 'American Dervish'. The ethology of 'American' is derived from the word America, with the addition of suffix '-an' to bring the meaning of 'the people of America'. Meanwhile, the word 'Dervish' can be defined as 'a member of a Muslim religious order noted for devotional exercises'. Simply to say, this novel will talk about the life of Hayat Khan, who is attempting to memorize Quran and he may be on the verge of becoming such a dervish. *simplify from here*

Moving on, the question to ponder, why I love this novel and want to have it as my collection so badly?? terasa tertanya-tanya?? let's read the full description of this novel above (directly copied from here)
"Hayat Shah is a young American in love for the first time. His normal life of school, baseball, and video games had previously been distinguished only by his Pakistani heritage and by the frequent chill between his parents, who fight over things he is too young to understand. Then Mina arrives, and everything changes.


Mina is Hayat's mother's oldest friend from Pakistan. She is independent, beautiful and intelligent, and arrives on the Shah's doorstep when her disastrous marriage in Pakistan disintegrates. Even Hayat's skeptical father can't deny the liveliness and happiness that accompanies Mina into their home. Her deep spirituality brings the family's Muslim faith to life in a way that resonates with Hayat as nothing has before. Studying the Quran by Mina's side and basking in the glow of her attention, he feels an entirely new purpose mingled with a growing infatuation for his teacher.

When Mina meets and begins dating a man, Hayat is confused by his feelings of betrayal. His growing passions, both spiritual and romantic, force him to question all that he has come to believe is true. Just as Mina finds happiness, Hayat is compelled to act -- with devastating consequences for all those he loves most."

Don't know why tapi for the first time I feel like to own this book, very deadly, walau pown baru tengok title of the book. maybe sebab during in the class of Introduction to Writing we had been exposed with a lot of reading materials related to America or American, atau maybe sebab the description at the back of the book that told me about the life of young Muslim boy in America. Whatever or whichever it is, I will do anything to collect some money and purchase this book hehe..don't you guys feel the same??(^_~)
p/s: currently reading on 'Shopaholic:Ties the Knot' by Sophie Kinsella and 'Pemilik Cintaku Setelah Allah dan Rasul' by Fatimah Syarha Mohd Nordin. Maybe should do some review on the second book hehe..:p
