Merdeka 51 Petronas Ad.

The Petronas ad for this year brought tears to my eyes. It reminds me not to take for granted the sacrifices made by my parents to bring me up to what I am today.

Thanks for the little nudge to remind me ..........

One More Try.

My son, Syafie, failed to get any medal in the recent MTA Remaja Championship. It's okay son, I know you tried your best. He has one more chance to try for the medal this weekend. After that, he has to wait till December for the next 2008 Inter-Club Taekwondo Championship end of November.

22nd-24th August, we'll be at Genting Highlands for the IMU Open Taekwondo Championship.

May the force be with you ... Syafie

Idioms ... by Karam Singh Walia

nobody@vox.com(Nazley a.k.a. Bubba) — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 09:46:51 +0800

This list came through my email this morning and made me smile.
I thought I'd share this :-D

Idioms by Karam Singh Walia

Kemana tumpahnya kuah kalau tidak ke bawah
Tak lapuk dek hujan, tak lekang macam rambutan
Tiada rotan, pelempang berguna juga
Biar lambat asalkan tak cepat
Biar putih tulang, jangan kuning gigi
Di mana ada gula di situ adalah gula-gula
Kalah jadi abu, menang jadi arang, seri jadi abu bakar
Carik-carik bulu ayam, lama-lama jadi shuttlecock
Secupak takkan jadi 18 cupak
Gajah mati meninggalkan gading, udang harimau mati meninggalkan kulit, manusia mati meninggal dunia
Sedangkan lidah lagi tergigit, inikan pula makanan di dalam mulut.
Harapkan pagar, pagar tidak boleh diharap
Alang-alang mandi biar guna sabun
Berapa berat mata memandang, berat lagi seguni beras
Cubit paha kanan, paha kiri tak rasa apa-apa pun
Diam-diam ubi berisi, diam-diam orang... . bisu
Hidup segan mati di tanam
Ikut hati mati, ikut rasa merasa
Lembu punya susu cap teko dapat nama
Sehari selambar benang lama-lama benang habis
Jika kail panjang sejengkal, beli le yang panjang sikit kalau nak ngail di laut. (beli la pukat tunda lagi baik)
Hendak seribu daya, tak hendak tak apa
Membujur lalu melintang pukang
Hujan emas di negeri orang, hujan batu di negeri sendiri, lebih baik hari tak hujan
Sebab pulut santan binasa, sebab mulut habis pulut
Kecil-kecil cili padi, kecil lagi biji cili
Kalau sudi katakan sudi, kalau tak sudi boleh blah!!
