Datang dan pergi

Salam dan Apa khabar semua? Harap kalian semua sihat sejahtera dan saya pun sentiasa berharap yang saya hidup didalam kesejahteraan dan perlindungan Allah swt. Perkara datang dan pergi. Begitu juga dengan masa, ia pergi dengan pantas tanpa kita sedari atau pun tidak. Dalam tempoh sebualan atau kurang kita akan menyambut ketibaan Ramadhan. Saya pun dah bermula melakukan puasa sunat sekarang, paling kurang tidaklah terkejut badan saya untuk berpuasa penuh di Ramadhan akan datang.

Selepas pulang dari Batam (bersama Fajar Samudera) saya memohon untuk bekerja di Bass Sdn. Bhd atas posisi Plan Maintenance Engineer. Alhamdulillah ianya berjaya dan sekarang sudah dua minggu saya berada dan bekerja di KL. Dalam masa "malap" sekarang saya sedar, saya tak boleh memilih kerja. Kerana ada tuntutan lain yang perlu diselesaikan setiap bulan seperti ansuran kereta dan rumah.

Dalam masa yang sama saya turut berkira-kira untuk menyambung pelajaran lagi untuk MBA in Shipping Management di Unisel secara part time. Tetapi sebelum meneruskan hasrat itu saya kenalah berbincang dulu dengan keluarga, tak bolehlah hentam sebarang je kan.....hehe. Bagaimana dengan pendapat anda? HARUS ke saya sambung belajar? Hehe...

Oklah saya rasa sampai sini saja updated untuk hari ini. Saya nak bersiap-siap ke tempat kerja sekarang. jumpa lagi di lain masa dan ketika....

You got the talent? How about them?

Selamat Pengantin Baru

Song: Love Story by Taylor Swift

Jumaat lepas saya ke Putrajaya menghadiri majlis pernikahan Rohaizad dan isterinya Shafara bertempat di Dewan Sri Siantan, Kompleks Perbadanan Putrajaya. Sebenarnya majlis ini adalah majlis di belah pegantin lelaki, manakala majlis resepsi pengantin perempuan telah diadakan lima hari sebelumnya di Felda Villa, Jalan Semarak, Kuala Lumpur.

Untuk memudahkan perjalanan ke Putrajaya saya membawa bersama adik saya yang sememangnya belajar di Cyberjaya yang lebih maklum akan selok belok di situ. Saya bertolak ke Putrajaya selepas solat Jumaat dan tiba di sana petang sebelum singgah ke rumah En. Rizal sebagai perhentian untuk mandi dan menukar pakaian.

Majlis bermula pada waktu malam, saya dan adik ditempatkan di meja bulat bersama-sama rakan-rakan satu batch di ALAM, Melaka dulu. Turut hadir bersama ialah Haris Hamdan, Iyadzree dan isteri, Johan dan isteri dan beberapa senior kami di ALAM dulu.

Rohaizad segak mengenakan blues hitam kapal beserta peak cap manakala isterinya mengenakan persalinan moden warna putih. Selepas sesi bergambar bersama pasangan pegantin kami pun meninggalkan dewan dengan doa agar pasangan Rohaizad dan Shafara kekal bahagia hingga ke akhir hayat. Amin.

Teka-teki dari Einstein. Apa macam ada berani?

Can you solve Einstein's riddle?

Einstein wrote this riddle early during the 19th century. He said 98% of the world could not solve it. Its not hard, you just need to pay attention and be patient.

There are 5 houses in 5 different colors. In each house lives a person with a different nationality. The 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same beverage.

The question is: Who owns the fish?

Hints:

* The Brit lives in the red house.

* The Swede keeps dogs as pets.

* The Dane drinks tea.

* The green house is on the immediate left of the white house

* The green homeowner drinks coffee.

* The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.

* The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.

* The man living in the center house drinks milk.

* The Norwegian lives in the first house.

* The man who smokes Blend lives next to the one who keeps cats.

* The man who keeps the horse lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.

* The owner who smokes Bluemaster drinks beer.

* The German smokes prince.

* The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.

* The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water.

Nak jawab teka-teki Einstein ni, saya syorkan korang buat satu table, dan susun maklumat (hints) ikut tempat. Selamat Berjaya.....

P/S katanya hanya 2% jer penduduk dunia yang boleh jawab soalan nie. Adakah anda termasuk dalam golongan ni? hehe......Cuba jangan tak cuba.
