After praying, we waited for the "god brother". It felt funny because kite dua orang (me n god brother) had never talked (verbally) to each other before...erm, maybe once la kot, on the nite of his nikah ceremony I said good luck to him :), that's all. We went to pudu plaza, god brother said it's worse than sungei wang...agreed! I like to observe people, I heard the "god brother" said "correct" with the "t" sound being produced. Not many malaysians do that. When the final cluster is the combination of two consonants, the final consonant is rarely produced by non-native, I'm referring to the normal situations la.
Well, I had a good time going around with the "god brother" and tinker...so many new things to be learned. I'm a good observer so I should also be a good photographer...but I have to learn, and learn, and learn, and learn. (owh, I have to type this down, I hate Mr.Des for asking that silly question to god brother, I'll make sure that I'll be able to take good photos later- a reminder, so that I'll always be motivated!hehe)

On Sunday, only two kids showed up, excluding my lil bro, Zak. I've bought the kicking target, walaupun tak bersemangat terpaksa jugak...takkan nak suruh parents bawak diorang balik rumah. The two kids were like monsters, I asked them to do few kicks they said "cikgu, penatlah, main lah", and they raced to the swing. Matilah aku kalau macam nih every week.Now I'm looking at Zak in a better perspective, at least he's not as nakal as these two monsters (at least not in front of other people - he's reading this while I'm typing it) *Zak senyum sendiri*. Since, my student all lari already, I think I need to advertise my class here la!

Taekwondo Class
(in collaboration with the women's bureau of Masjid al-ikhlas)
Sundays, 8.30-10am, badminton court, SS3/47 SS3/41 (if I'm not mistaken la)
Good teacher with good skills in tkd (die la if somebody come to test me hehehe), having some problems to teach in Malay (so used to teach in English in other classes-hard to translate the terms la), won few national level tournament (silver n bronze medal jer, gold belum lagi!) and other open championships, still struggling to complete her BHSc., and trying to lead a normal life (u can't be normal if you're a seven-lord bcos that's the requirement!),
Cikgu, 1st dan blackbelt, going 2nd dan by the end of the year insha Allah.
ok, that's enuff of berlagak'ing'!

LTA organized a trip to Sunway Pyramid yesterday, so the blackbelts had to be the "cikgu tadika" and help to jaga the kids. Kids from brickfields, SAS school, centre and the charity class and my lil bro. Last year, we started a tkd class on charity basis for the kids in Rumah Kanak2 Cacat Tmn. Megah, not all la disabled kids of course, some of them are the under privileged kids. Every time I go there I feel a lil bit guilty bcos I can't do anything to help them. Yerla, imagine this, they're staying in a corner lot bungalow, I think there're more than 50 kids there. The ones yang cacat anggota paling kesian, baring je kat lantai...the first time I went there, I came back crying. There're two malay kids (maybe Indonesian),Henri and Ratna, I like them very much. I told myself that if one day, I have a stable life, good income, good house, a car and most importantly have equipped myself with good knowledge in religion, I would adopt these two kids. These kids can only speak Tamil, bcos they mingle with the kids in the charity house who are mostly Indians. But that's not the problem. I'm more worried of the denials of their rights. Anyway, back to Sunway Pyramid, we went to the ice-skating rink, haven't skate for some time, tapi oklah. Bringing about 50 kids to a skating rink is not really a good idea, most of them can't skate so the blackbelts had to berjaga2 always, in case ada sesiape kiss the icy floor (ramai pun sebenarnya including few blackbelts). One thing about kids is that they're not afraid to try new things...and they work really hard to master it (that's two things la!). Had great fun with them, nak tolong when they fell down but they refused (ego budak2) hehehe. Looking back at yesterday's experience, it wasn't a bad idea after all. (orang melayu selalu kata kalau cakap berbelit macam keling - do u realise that "keling" is not even a word, dibantah penggunaannya di dalam kamus dewan, it is not even a race! so there's no "keling" here! even though I cakap berbelit)
We had lunch there, at the rink, A&W...for rm25 it's worth it la dapat skate, lunch, and shoot arrows (not cupids haa!). After that we went for archery, aiyah...this one susah mau jaga la the kids. Everybody can shoot a dozen of arrows the most, but you know lah, it's hard to set a limit to children (adult pun sama hehehe). I tried to shoot, banyak kena kat dinding je, ada la 3-4 kena kat target.

I think we should spent more time with kids la, at least we can reduce the aging process to half (that' according to myself la!)...one thing for sure, kids have the power to light up your heart (and of course give you heart attack too!).
