Hope a great new year after 2010 did great to all of us.

Gosh, another year will pass us in 2 hours. I just hope I've done enough this year to look back and make a self reflection.

Hoping u guys did great in your own terms as well.

I hope each of us can look back and proud of our own achievement albeit some regrets. That the way life is. Without some up and down, life can definitely borink! :D

For me I can say 2010 come with a blessing. Alhamdulilah. It has been a rough year but an exciting 1! Here are my list of 2010; just happy to share with all of u.

1. My lovely Milla pregnancy head the list. ;)
2. Going to South Africa for the world cup came close 2nd.
3. Got opportunity to travel Germany right after world cup was simply amazing
4. Engage with not so level headed panelist to acquire some fund, I tell u was extremely tiring.
5. Knowing the other side of muslim world in South Africa is eye opening. Seeing is believing, being oppress by Apartheid have made them more independent and self progressing
6. The arrival of our Amin Muhaimin. He is a blessing and we are grateful for that.
7. New family member etc etc etc.

Guess I should stop at that. The mistakes are lesson to be learnt. The corrects are point to be improved.

Happy New Year 2011. Live our ordinary Life extraordinary. Have a blast instead. ;)

Signing off for the year 2010,
Moqq.

Hai Muhaimin Ya Muhaimin.

Hai Muhaimin Ya Muhaimin

Pantas sungguh masa berlalu, ye nak.

Belum puas babah tidurkan kamu di pangkin 

Kini kau sudah pandai menyebut e mak

Hai Muhaimin Ya Muhaimin

Kasih sayang kami padamu tiada tara

Doa kami agar kau jadi orang mukminin

Berbuat baik di muka dunia tidak berkira

Hai Muhaimin Ya Muhaimin

Kau buka pintu rezki keluarga

Sesungguhnya doa kami telah diamin

Kehadiran mu tepat pada masa dan ketika 

Hai Muhaimin Ya Muhaimin.

Babah pasti merindui saat-saat itu

Tatkala kamu bergolek mencari posisi 

Ketika kau tidur di pangkuan ku.

Indah waktu itu, nak.. jika kau mampu mengerti perasaan babah ketika itu.

Saban hari saban waktu aku tak akan pernah jemu ingin mengendongmu.

Hai Muhaimin Ya Muhaimin

Cepat benar kau membesar, ye nak.

Kalau lah aku mampu hentikan waktu....

p/s: tribute to Muhaimin. He turns 3 months today

A blast from past cd's collection

My brother took the wheel driving us from Penang to KL after a short trip celebrating aidil adha in Penang. I took the time off as co pilot to look at a compilation of old cd's in the car. It was a collection of cd's circa 98-2001. Going through every cd's caught me by surprise; my range of music cover from heavy metal the likes of Metallica to the ballad/pop tunes of Mariah Carey. In between, my ears also soothe to the hinds melody of kuch kuch hota hai soundtrack! My oh my.

I never had any preference selection to my music. As long the ears are receptive every melody can blend in me. I am the 'senang nak di bela' type person, I guess. ;)

Music is universal. If the melody is too hard for u, try understand the lyrics. The hard melody may represent some hatred within whilst the lyrics may present us with some soul searching and advice. How weird it may sound, the best songs were never the ear-catchy ones. Sometimes we need to listen hard to understand the story behind.
Anger, Sadness, Happiness, Empathy are part of the story. The story of life of the storyteller (singer).

cd cd lama yeop!

Glancing through my copies of music cd's, it reflected me as a very colourful person and I'm proud to say it loud. Thank god for giving me two healthy ears that help me listening (learning) from wonderful songs all these years. :)

Now, I'm looking forward to finishing my compilations of old cd's. Say no to hot FM for a while...

p/s: listening to Santana 'Corazon Espinado' now made me feel going air guitar solo!!

my first milestone. 10,000 and counting hits

I never anticipate my blog could reach a milestone by reaching its first 10,000 hits. Praise Al Mighty.

I m neither bragging nor find myself elevated to a new status by this achievement. If to compare with some other bloggers who has/could hits millions of viewers just in a nick of months; who am I to begin with?

But obviously that is not how I want to project myself. This blog has given me space to express myself, my happiness, my experience and my opinion about the event that happened around me and how I see things differently. That has been the way I write in this weblog ever since. 

I dont have to follow any rules, and obey to any political master when writing my thoughts. As long my conscience is clear and I feel right to blog about it, I will continue blogging.

I dont need myself to be known to express what's inside my heart, rite? This is my space and its your's truly territory. I want to continue writing as long as it give me the satisfaction that people do read my blog; albeit occasionally.

If any of my experience and thought did helps, i would be very grateful, if none of my thoughts is useful; you will know how crap I am. hahah

For all the support and love for making me a 10,000 hits blogger.

Thank you from within my 'liver' - pun intended - please watch eat.pray.love to understand. :)

Veni, vidi, vici

I came, I saw, I conquered. 

There is only one man who came to Arsenal, become an Arsenal hero and scored a goal (not one but 2 with different club) against them. It was obvious he didn't feel good about it hence the non celebration but to his surprised, the respect he has given to the club was repaid by a standing ovation from the crowd with the fans chanting "Dudu! Dudu!"

Eduardo will always hold a special place in the heart of every Gunners Die hards. We are still sad that u left us but understood that u need more playing time in order to get back to your level best prior the horrific injury. Wish u the best in Shakhtar Donetsk. See u in Ukraine  in 2 weeks 

In the end we were happy that we won 5-1 and looking good to cruise to knock out stage of CL.

For now, let us give the respect to Eduardo, the number 9 player, a humble clinical finisher and one of the reason why i love Arsenal and still.

the tribute for a true footballer who just wanted to play football.

Guess we never meant to be...

Salam,

Today 16th October 2010, my Muhaimin turn a month. Yeay! He is really gaining much spending time at his nenek's doing nothing only milk, sleep and poo poo.

hi world!

I haven't seen him almost a week and look forward to spending time with him later tomorrow when I drive down to Pekan. -On my way from Penang now-. Thank goodness we hv technology to transfer data and pictures. Those pictures of him kept me occupied everyday in his absence. Tks to the wonder of MMS.

In all the happiness celebrating my son turn 1 month, I'm saddened to received a sorrow note. The passing of a friend who I never knew in person yet I always find inspiration and mesmerised with his photography works.

Taufiq Shariff - a guy who even share the same family name.

Some of our friend joked that we are brothers but I guess we never were to be in the end. 

His passing was due to brain tumor and cancer and I am deeply hurt that someone so talented and creative like him had an early call. I guess God's love supersede any humans love towards him. 

Nevertheless, we are still blessed by his presence in this world though on a short period. I believe he has live his life to the fullest and for all his photography wonders I just want to say my thank you.

Taufiq,

I hope u will be happy up there, doing what u do best - Capturing beautiful moment and now very near to your 'Pencipta'

I am sorry for not taking the opportunity to know u better. To understand u as a person rather only acknowledge u by your works. Your passing will be a loss to world of creative photography, missed to your love ones, to your close friend and indeed to a complete stranger like me. However, you will always left sweet memories and have touched so many life.

Though we never know in person but the opportunity to have a conversation with u in FB, agreed on few things that happened in fotopages and successfully left my comment on your work on blogspot will be cherished as my best moment with you.

Now that you have left us, I guess I hv to see life differently. Not on a negative note but to seize every opportunity that come upon; carpe diem!

Taufiq Shariff; I guess we really never meant to be...

Death has do us apart. Al Fatihah

taufiq shariff  r.i.p. 

all pictures belongs to him and taken from his fotopages

In tears,

Mohsein Shariff

p/s: u can enjoy more of taufiq beautiful works at his blog.
