Jalan-jalan Cari Makan


We checked out this sushi restaurant last weekend.
It is in Palladium mall in Prague.
If u take the metro, the stop is Náměstí Republiky.

Being Malaysians, we really make use of the buffet style.
Eat anything you can, as much as you want.
After all, we pay 300Kc per head for that.

When we eat, we eat.
I see others pay the same amount and take a plate of 2 maki zushi, eat 1, speak for minutes, take another plate, speak and by the time they are done, there are less than half dozen plates which are empty.


About the food, the sushi r not that good. only few choices, and the salmon slices near tasteless.
But the clams are bursting with ocean taste, hot and simmered with oyster sauce. yummy yum!
whole squids on the stick r also nice
there are 2 versions of prawn- 1 is grilled small prawns, another is prawn cooked somewhat like paprik style where the prawns taste like fresh prawn salad. yummy yummmy.
there are also fried wonton, tofu in salty soy sauce and kimchi.
not all food can be eat by us Muslim
so, it's always better to ask the waitress about the ingredients first.

My last remark, I'm coming back to that restaurant.
And waitresses, don't think we don't know what u speak of.
we are after all from multiracial country.
canto, mandarin or hakka, don't underestimate us.
After all, we pay for what we eat.

I'm a Handicap for Another 1 Month



I didn't fall down.
I was trying to stop a friend from crashing onto the tree trunk.
Bad luck, my ulna and radius on my left hand got blown and they looked close to this
ridged fracture and the heads dislocated dorsally.

Image courtsey of this site

Got local anasthethic, and the surgeon retract the bones to normal position.
It was painful even with anaesthethic.
So, now am wearing cast and thanks Allah for baju kurung.

Anyhow, it was quite an experience and I was lucky to have Kak Aini accompanying me and advising on how to take wudhu etcetera3.
Plus, we met a Czech who speak English and that was a great help.
Thanks gentleman.
And the surgeon also speaks fluent English.
And am glad am a medic student.
It makes the explanation of the fracture interesting.
I was so lucky.

p/s : sesiapa yg bhajat nk conteng my cast, tunggu the day before it's going to be removed.sabaq na.

Ramadhan Yang Penuh Bermakna, Syawal Yang Entah Ke Mana


Tsk, I know Eid Mubarak was celebrated days before
but still I want to post this up.


Eid Mubarak to all Muslim!
It feels kinda weird typing the above wish because for me, it usually goes like this
"Selamat Hari Ghaya!"
I'm sorry that I don't post anything to the Berita Harian and the likes, but then I don't want my photo to be nasi lemak wrapper (I was actually busy fretting over anatomy =p)


Previous Ramadhan was very brief for me.
I studied anatomy throughout the month and took the final 2 days before Eid.
Alhamdulillah, it has been a meningful Ramadhan for me.
A Ramadhan that is not so easily to be forgotten.
Iftars and tadarus kept me alive.

1st Syawal, sadly is the complete opposite.
The spirit of raya was felt only when we were having rendang ayam, sambal goreng (or was it sayur goreng?), serunding and nasi impit in our PJs with takbir raya in the background.
This Syawal, I've been takbir raya deprieved.
And I'm not even care to play the raya songs.
Not that I was in no mood for celebration, but things are all jumbled up and I'm still sorting everything out up till now.

Anyway, passing anatomy is the most cherished gift for this Raya.

Roller Coaster Of The Past 1 and A Half Month





Patriotism.
Breakdown.
Faith.
Procrastination.
Ukhuwwah.
Effort.
Tears.
Repentance.
Losing weight.
Farewell.
Ramadhan.
Passing and failing.
Laughing, crying.
The fruit harvested.
The new list of things to be done-cookies, enrolment, credit, textbooks.
So much has happened.
So many to tell.
But for now,let me enjoy the rendang and ketupat.
Stories later.

Ordeal

If there is a tough Ramadhan in my life,then this Ramadhan is the toughest one for me.

How i miss crying my lungs out on my parents lap.
Having their hands caressing my hair, their thumb wiping away my tears, their lips planting kisses and saying comforting words.
The secure feeling that they provide me with.
There's no wall.
And now, i'm out of that bliss.
Someday i hope to return there.
And from now on i'll always seek comfort from these.
"maka sesungguhnya bersama kesulitan ada kemudahan.sesungguhnya bersama kesulitan ada kemudahan" -ayat 5&6, surah Asy-syarh-

Patience, is virtue.
