Food Review #3 : Nasi Lauk Melayu @ Rumah Makan Nasi Kampung (Jalan Damai, Kuala Lumpur)

 Assalamualaikum wbt and hello everyone.

Last Deepavali break, kami sekeluarga decide ke KL sebab nak bawak parents aku ke kenduri. Sambil sambil tu, kami singgah rumah bapa saudara sebelah bapak husband aku sebab nak melawat tok dia yang masih ada. 

Selagi tok ada, kami memang akan turun KL and ke Shah Alam untuk jumpa tok. Kadang kami singgah jugak Kg Pandan kalau aunty (mak tiri husband) ada. But this time masa kami call, rupanya aunty di Korea nun... seronok nyaaa. Kami mampu ke KL ja lah dulu sekarang haha. Habis ja sekolah hari Jumaat tu balik ambil anak di pengasuh terus kami ke kolumpo.

Okay, tapi aku nak cerita pasal kedai makan ni yang kami singgah before balik (on Sunday). Memang kami nak cuba kedai yang belum pernah pergi lagi. So aku google terus, kedai lauk Melayu dan keluarlah suggestion: 

Rumah Makan Nasi Kampung

Maaf lah kereta siapa termasuk tu.

So here's my review;

Parking: 5/5.
Untuk hari Ahad, parking nya mudah dapat. Ada park dalam kawasan kedai, ada juga ruangan kat tepi tepi jalan tu yang boleh kita letak kereta. Yang penting ada akak RELA jaga. Jadi takda la kita gelabah nak melintas especially kalau bawak anak anak kecik macam kami.

Suasano: 4/5
Aku rasa tenang ja sebenarnya. Aku ni mudah dibela sebenarnya. Namun, aku rasa satu satunya benda yang depa kena improve ialah lagu. Hahaha. Small matter ja tau. Tapi lagu kenduri kahwin weh. Siapa la susun playlist ni. Pasang lagu P Ramlee ok, lagu klasik pun okay ja. Tapi ada satu time tu macam bersusun lagu kenduri. Aku kalau kenduri ni, rasa macam kena makan free la ek :P Tapi gurau ja. Ni small matter aje. So takda masalah la.

Lawa deco dia!

Vibe kedai ni macam dalam alam sikit, banyak pokok dedaunan berguguran walaupun tengah kota. Cantik la, seriously. 

Facility & Cleanliness: 5/5
Tempat basuh tangan dia jauh ke belakang sikit. Tapi not really a bad thing? Depa boleh ja tambah sinki lagi kat depan tu. And although aku tak berapa pasti tapi rasanya belakang sinki tu macam ada toilet. Aku ni ralit sikit. Tapi yang penting sekali bersih! Kalau orang bangun dari meja kan, laju ja staf dia mai cuci meja. Tak menyempat nak bergetah meja tu. 

Food & Price: 5/5
Dari segi makanan, lauk semua cedok, pinggan or sudu garpu semua boleh ambil sendiri. Pastu selection pun banyak la weh. Ada kawasan sayuran and ulaman sahaja. Ada kawasan lauk pauk. Lepastu ada jugak area kuih muih. So memang rambang mata nak memilih makanan.

Ni kat kawasan kuih muih. Kalau masuk ke dalam tu, lauk pauk nasi.

Dari segi rasa, again aku cakap aku ni mudah berpuas hati. Kalau depa masak secukup rasa, dah sedap dah untuk aku. Jangan masak macam lauk pantang ja, then maybe I will rate it down. But for us aku berpuas hati. Anak anak makan nasi and ayam ja, tapi habis tau. Alhamdulillah. Yang penting real food, bukan makanan merapu.

Pinggan laki aku; Nasi, ayam goreng, begedil and sayur bayam.

Pinggan aku; nasi belah kuah tu aku makan. Belah kiri tak kena kuah tu aku suap anak. Haha. Patin dalam mangkuk tu aku punya jugak. Jarang jumpa kat Penang kena makan, walaupun ghisau takut mahei.

Pinggan Fahri.

All in all, aku berpuas hati, jumlah yang kami makan + 2 air teh o ais + 1 air teh ais = RM 53.00.

Okay la kan? Laki aku cakap okay la tu. Hahah kita tukang makan approve la harga kalau tukang bayar approve :P Also, laki aku kan peramah orangnya, sempat pulak dia bersembang dengan staf tu. Rupanya kedai ni baru dibuka sebulan lebih. Jadi apa lagi, moh ler support. Orang kolumpo mesti dah ada port yang menarik kan. Selaku orang luar, aku approve ja la tempat ni hehe. And setelah ku google, rupanya ada banyak cawangan Rumah Makan niiii. Lahhhh patut macam established ja konsep dia. Niceeee.

Okay lah. Semoga aku tidak lupa :)

Sekian dari saya, thanks for reading!

Farley's Draft 2 - Submission week.

Disclaimer: This was written in 2015 (23/12/2025 sppecifically). Just a good write. So I don't forget :)

It's the worst when a semester comes to an end. Not because we'll miss studying, or because we're sooooo stressed out of the exams that are coming. It's only because we have a lot, and by a lot it means almost every subject's assignment submission.

Last week was the hell week for most of us (TESOLians especially). When we have Multimedia as our Minor, you know it only means sleepless nights.

Not that all of us did our job at the very last minute you know (although in my case, Yes I did). Because my friends, finished editing the videos the earliest, ended up stuck at the very last minute because our e-Learning website progress slower than snails. We had tonnes of files to be uploaded for God's sake! (I'll have to agree w/ our creative writing lecturer that it is indeed, Universiti Sangat Mundur -.-)

So yeah. What's there to write when it's all over now? We managed to submit it anyway because our lecturer (who has always shown his beastly-sarcastic side) turned out to be one of the nicest person on earth! *Trust me you would get a veeeeeeeeeeery different answer if you had asked us last semester. Well, we were glad and enjoyed ourselves when our videos were presented. 

It was hard, I tell ya. It really was. A lot of us broke down and even questioned our lives why were we asked to pick it as our Minor?! WHYYYY?! 

Skills. I guess that's why. I'm telling ya, I feel like a whole new person after I learn those skills and if you ask me right now, I could say that I am able to produce a movie! (a short one, maybe). Hahaha.

The process was all tiresome. Most of us turned to monsters. You do NOT wanna fool around us last week, because whatever you said, it wouldn't be funny when my eyes need to focus on the screen and my fingers need to stay clicking, editing and pressing any buttons I could, in order to give our best shot.

AGAIN! Why do I write?! (I keep going off track hahaha). 

It's because it's all over now. :) 

So to anyone out there, who's having a really hard time doing whatever things right now, don't worry because it will soon be over. (For as long as the thing you're doing is worth it for your future, I assure you, inshaAllah, there's gain afterwards.)

"Perfer et obdura dolor hic tibi proterit olim."

The meaning is more or less, as stated in the picture below.

I guess that's all from me :)

Thanks for reading. I hope I'll write more in 2016. InshaAllah.

Love,
Farzana Rosley.

Farley's Draft 1 #FarWrites

Okay. Let me make this thing clear. *assalamualaikum wbt by the way ahahah.

Once upon a time, I was a high school kid. Just like some people (most people I would say), I did become stupid. I was in 'love' I believe.

*trust me I've moved on, but as I was browsing through my old posts/drafts in my blogger dashboard, I actually found this poem made by me (lol how geli) but I honestly am impressed with myself.

Im so goooood man. So yeah, mind being in love with me? I might gonna write something for it. Lol jk jk. Not interested in any unless you're my crush. (again, jk!)

Trust me I have moved on. No hard feelings anymore, I even forgot how my ex looks like (haaaa lies I told, jk. he's still a friend in fb) but we're good. 

But even if him or any of my friends who used to know me and my stupid old days encounter this post, TRUST ME Im posting this poem just because I THINK IM FREAKING GOOD AT WRITING AND RHYMING.

Okay. Here it is. 

My 16 year-old self. Astagaaa gatai nohhh!

…buat dia yang pernah kuucapkan sayang

Sayang,

Pernah sekali kubilang cinta

Pada kau jejaka mutiara

Kau membalas mengucap rasa

Pada aku gadis permata

Kita kononnya ditakdir bersama

Pada usia mengenal matang

Bermimpi bersama hingga ke jinjang.

Kau jejaka manis belaka

Sayangku kau panggil

Hingga jatuh aku menggigil.

Saat kau harus pergi

Mengikut orang tua kesana ke mari

Jatuh air mataku tak pernah henti.

Lagu indah buatku kau dendang

menunjuk rasamu yang rancak bergendang

tersenyum aku dalam tangis tak hilang

engkau jejaka pandai membilang.

hilang kau tak berkhabar berita

bukan terjumpa si gadis baru

namun terlupa aku yang satu

akhirnya aku terus berharap

menanti janjimu kau ucap dulu

biar apapun terjadi kausayang aku

takkan dilupa biar tubuh kaku.

Hai jejaka penglipur lara,

sedih aku tak boleh dikira

tersenyum aku menerima berita

tersayu aku bukan kau si pencerita

hidup barumu indah belaka

teman baru keliling saja

bukan aku,

 malah sahabat turut dilupa.

Sedarlah wahai jejaka

aku ini insan biasa

andai aku masih kausuka

ucapkanlah cinta seperti dulu

katakanlah sayang selagi mampu.

bukan perlu berganti hari

setiap saat jauh sekali

sekadar bertanya khabar ku pinta

agar kutahu kaumasih setia.

sayang,

andai bukan aku untukmu

ucapkanlah tulus sejujurnya

sahabat selamanya kita bersama

itulah permulaan yang sebenarnya kita pernah bina.

buat kau yang pernah kuucapkan sayang,

hati ini tak pernah lekang

berdoa untukmu agar tak bimbang

hati yang lara Tuhan yang tahu

tersenyum megah di khalayak

menangis lemah kala bersendiri.

buat kau yang pernah kuucapkan sayang,

jujurlah padaku andai kau tak lagi suka

tinggalkanlah aku biar kita menjadi biasa

kau teman tetap sahabatku.

….buat kau yang pernah kuucapkan sayang

Sedarlah tulisku bukan sahaja

Coretanku bukan yang biasa

Untukmu kuluah dalam cerita

Agar kaufaham apa kurasa

Senyumlah sahabat yang pernah ku cinta

Aku hanyalah insan biasa,

Temanmu yang cuba mencoret rasa.

KAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH so funneh right. Okay you may throw up now >.< But you cant deny that Im good right?! Ahah told you so.

And trust me. It's an old thing. Cant even find what was the date (but it was absolutely in 2010 I could tell ya ahaha)

So yeah, thanks for reading! (if there's any.)

Love,

Damai Park Resort 2025 - Camping Site Review #1

 Assalamualaikum wbt and hello everyone.

Ada peluang, kita tulis jelah. 

Baru baru ni team Kelab Guru dan Staf (KGS) bagi tahun 2025 (termasuk aku) telah merancang satu program LdP. Tajuk program nya kami bagi SPAGETI. Hahah kenapa SPAGETI? God bless ChatGPT lah harus. Semangat Pasukan Aktif Guru Energetik Toleransi Inspiransi. 

Honestly aku tak sekreatif itu untuk bagi idea nama program. But alhamdulillah sebab pada pengamatan aku, program kami berlangsung dengan jayanya. 

Antara faktor kami kena gerakkan jugak program ni ialah sebab pengetua kami ni berhasrat agar cikgu-cikgu dapat mengukuhkan silaturrahim dan mengeratkan ukhuwah antara kami semua. Jadi kami team KGS ni just buat jelah mana yang kami mampu. Gratefully, semua cikgu and staf memang bekerjasama and sporting sangat! Jadi program kami memang lancarrrr hehehe

Let's review a little bit about the location, Damai Park Resort in Merbok, Kedah.

Lokasi nya dari sekolah kami ambil masa sekitar 40 minit. Banyak cikgu yang carpool. Kami team AJK ada yang tidur sana semalam awal. Bilik dia luas, air nya sejuuuuuuk, dan disebabkan kami tempah bilik resort kat bawah tu, dekat ja dengan tempat guard, jadi tak sunyi sangat lah.

Dia ada 3 bahagian:

A- Tapak bawah; yang kami duduk. Tapak ni betul betul dekat entrance, kat bawah saja. Soon as kita masuk, ada dewan kat kanan, tempat mandi untuk orang luar and also dewan makan. Bila jalan masuk dalam lagi, ada office dan dewan lagi satu. Sebelah kiri pulak ada dua bilik. Ada jugak tapak dan dorm di tapak awal awal ni.

B - Tapak perkhemahan @ program yang sangat besar. Yang ni kena masuk and naik atassss lagi. Besar and convenient kalau bawak students. But since kami bawak guru dan staf saja, jadi tak book kawasan ni.

C - Pusat Kokurikulum. Sini ada banyak la aktiviti boleh buat, flying fox repelling dan segala aktiviti kokurikulum yang ada. Yang ni naik atas, kena pusing kiri. 

Semua boleh jadi kat sini. Contact jela office depa. InshaAllah depa layan dengan baik dan profesional. Overall, kami berpuas hati. Tempahan makanan pun rasanya cukup ja. Aku pulak tak sempat tengok sangat masa ni. 

Ada ja video kat youtube aku. Ni ha, buat kenangan. 

Sekian dari aku, semoga aku tidak lupa :)

...I know my answer would never be yes

P/s: I wrote this in 2012 or 2013? However I moved it to my drafts. Only to realize that this writing is a good reminder for myself. Thus Im reposting it. 

Assalamualaikum wbt.

These days Ive been told with the news of my friends' beloved dads passing away. Al-Fatihah.

I didnt inform my Mum or any other family members but these friends of mine are good friends of mine. I mean yeah we were not really close but we once were either classmates or used to hang out together.

I made a lot of friends. I dont know if I have ever been a good one but these people are totally great friends of mine. I love the ukhuwah that we built for the pass few years that we have known each of us from high school. And the story of their family member leaving this world, somehow cant stop me from being sad. Although the level of our friendship isnt that strong but as we became friends, the ukhuwah we built exist. And the feeling of sadness somehow hit me as how it hit them, (just a little less pain compared to theirs.)

                                                       

Talking about leaving this world. I have always told myself that I should get ready. But what have I been doing exactly? I'm not sure. I don't know. I cant simply blame the surrounding or busy life that I have been facing. Im the one who chose it.

And by this time, with little tears in my eyes. I would want to remind myself, to realize that death waits for no one. Yes these friends of mine might lost their family member, leaving them. I might lose someone too one day. And people might lose me, someday.

It will eventually happen. The thing is, are we ready?

I know my answer would never be yes....
