Why i like Friday

Gosh this is a stupid entry hehee. tak ada kerjalah ni kan.

WHY I LIKE FRIDAY:-

1. Betos..... tomorrow is Saturday and its the weekend.
2. Betos..... the next day is Sunday and its another weekend.
3. Betos i like .. i like lah. ( thats what my nephew Daniel use to say)
4. And last but not least ... the break time is longer. hehehe.

So that wraps up why i like Friday.

Do you know that Friday comes from the word Free day..

Computer caput...

Nothing much happens today, accept that i paid my bills before hand.. I guess things are a little bit delayed due to some errors with my computer at the office. I called Nizam from ICT this morning , and after running the errors with him finally i could log in to Mayband2u and My blog.

There are some discouragement on my behalf ( adalah benda) but the main thing is that my Computer could function well again.

I am still thinking about my presents... this Christmas. Well i know what Inday and Toto's going to give me ( Nah't... to sis.. a Gold pendent... oh you did't... and Inday gosh you know what i mean rite) Ini yang susah ni ... oh yes i know... well tonite i am going to have to list my budget. Now we don't want to be Papa Kedana after Christmas rite.

Oh i got Nonoy's present already... its all the way from LONDON. Mahal tu... nasib baik beli masa tu, i don't have to think about him.

My nephew and nieces pun ... aduh.. nasib baik 6 je, Kalau ramai.. alamat dapat hadiah dari kedai RM 2.00 lah namanye. Esah... told me " tito kau tau ka aku ni dah nak 18 tahun tau, no more kedai RM 2.00 or a T shirt". Gosh, dulu i dapat pensil warna pun dah kira okay tau.

But for me really... Christmas is all about my family and Home.. Hugs and kiss .. sharing and having to thank God for another wonderful year but most of all thanking God for the birth of Jesus. What about u then .. what does Christmas meant to you.. ( well if your a Christianlah kan)

I remember a friend of mine in my Primary school , i think it was lahaji , he told me how lucky i am as a Christian, with all the presents , dinner and snow during Christmas. Gosh i am nearly 40 now and still no snow pun. hehehe, but looking at it i am lucky.. to be a Christian.

AMEN........ PUJI TUHAN

JESSE TREE

This morning i sms both my sisters about my blog and Inday told me that she've seen it early today with Nanay my mum.

She told me that my Xmass tree is too commercial. Yea rite.... I don't care he. he. and she told me that she's going to put up a Jesse tree .. What is a jesse tree.

Well basically a Jesse tree is a :

There are a variety of ways to make a Jesse Tree.

1. First of all, you will need a Bible, for the readings for each day.
2. Use a small REAL Christmas Tree and have the Children hang the Jesse Tree ornaments on the Tree during a Church Service.
3. Choose a 3 or 4 foot tree branch with lots of smaller branches attached to it. Place the branch in a pot of dirt or gravel and cover the bucket with Christmas paper.
4. Make a wall hanging using burlap fabric and sew a felt tree branch to the fabric. Attach Velcro® to the backs of the ornaments for attaching to the felt Jesse Tree.
5. Just draw the designs on big pieces of poster board, print out the readings and glue the Scripture readings to the back of the posters and have children present them.

so basically this is how a Jesse tree looks like ya... in animationlah.

And this is how a Jesse tree in actual... Inday is this how it suppose to look like? Adui... Kenapa dong.

My tree

So i've finito decorated my tree... well tell you whats new, the tree is new... the white ball are new, and some cristals that looks like driping water and the angel on top, plus some new ornaments and the rest are recycled ... cost... em... countless.. its Christmas yowww....

GOOD BYE MY LOVE.. PARIEEEEEEEEEE.. HEHEH WE SHALL MEET AGAIN

OH la Espana

Im sorry, i just came back from Sabah and i only manage to Hupdate my Blog today. C Hendrico dah bising-bising dah... .

City Visited : Madrid espana
Temp: 17 deg cel

Do you know that Spain colonized the Phillipines nearly 300 years and you could see that some of their food have a lot of similarities with the Pinoy.

We reached Madrid at noon and the first thing we did was tried to find the train to town which was quiet easier as compared to Rome but the journey so memenatkan because the walk to the train station was so far, going up and down the escalator and the worst when you see a steep stairs without an escalor.. " Membunuh betul diorang ni eh" thats what Diding always said.. Andy diam jak.. means tiredlah tu...

One good thing about our hostel was... its location which is in the middle of Madrid ( senang sangat ) We finally reach our Hostel at noon around 2 pm and gosh you should see our face... tired... tired and tired.

Hendri was having his nap kat Airplane.. as what he said... I tak snore lah, i tak dengar pun hehehe yea rite.

The longest journey .. Ini masa ada escalator ni, there are few steep stairs with escalatore, dahlah our bags are so heavy ... but everybody still manage to smile.

HOLAAAA... Andy's pose maut of Espana..." Chakkkkkkkkkkkkk" ok ke Allan My Hola pause...

Oh gosh this is the funniest story ever... eating at the walkway ala ala tepi jalan.

Actually what happen was it was around 3 pm and we tried to find a good place to eat our chicken but couldnt find a good place to eat ... Lapar sangat so ended up sitting on the roadside. A few hours before we were on the plane sky high ala kelas kelas and the next thing you see we were eating on the road side .. like beggars hehehe and the worst thing was orang yang we ol share the plane from Rome to nampak kami pulak tu. aduh malu sangat , but who cares.. Everyone masa tu melantak bagai nak rak.. ni and the nearby shop was a desinger shop .. i guess thats how the begger felt .. malunye lariiiiiiiiiii... travel baget kan. what do u expect.

Salida means exit in espanyol.. this is the train exit.

A hagard face.. god my feet is killing me.

The easyjet plane... nicelah very confortable and kat advertisement kerja dia they put

looking for cabin crew without discimination.. Andy ask me maybe we could apply because maybe they accept fat and old opsssssssss matilah aku ... But honestly maybe its true because the cabin crew are chubby and old... kan andy.

My sister sempat makan kat atas kapal ni. I puasa coz the food are expensive.

ROMA 2

This is my second entry on Rome and my last one, coz mostly all the pictures are practically the same just that model model yang berbeza. Next week i'm coming back to Sabah for a Seminar on Malaysian Promotion Standard -crop commodities ( GOOD AGRICULTURE PRACTICE) and one good thing about it is my couse is on the 13 and i suppose to fly off to Bintulu on the 14 unfortunately there is no empty flight on the 14 until the 15 so ingat ingat baik aku balik Tawau ... so Next week i will coming back to Tawau for 2 days ( kerajaan tanggung) and then be back to Bintulu on the 15th.

So back to Rome...
Temperature : 17 degress celcius ( sesejuk rasalah)
Very dense with Young beautiful people plus some old ones too.
Language : Italiano....
Food: Practically are expensive ( if you buat conversion lah).. mostly are either pizza, spag and bread with ham. with cause you around 7-8 euros per meal ,... mahalkan dah dalam RM 40.00 sekali ngap... tapi normally we i would share with Carlina or Diding so jimatlah sikit.. ala ala makan pizza setengah ada RM 20.00 masih mahal jugak kan. Pai always say" jangan convert Allan " tapi one cannot help it coz we are earning here in Mesiakan. Not in London like my sista.

This was after we come out from the church where me Diding and Carlina manage to follow the mass... wahhhh haji and hajjah already we olllsssss...

This is one the Church near Termini... Dari luar nampak buruk sangat then when you go in... Ternga-nga HAMBEK kau. I manage to pause a prayer to God for wonderful things happening in my lfe including this trip and to all the passed souls family (thanks toto for reminding me). He he you know when i prayed, toto always remind me to pray for our family that passed away. Bagus jugak sista aku ni. hehehe.

This is the Post Office in rome. Sempat jugak i kirim a postcard to my friends in Bintulu, Nonoy and Nanay , Inday although we forgot her address , tapi yang bestnye i sampai dulu before my post card.

This is me and Carlina ... looking at an Olive tree.. Bitter taste , just wonder how they processed it to become oil . ... But its a beautiful tree macam bonzai pulak.



FYI for those yang dapat baju, gelang-gelang and other eksesori, disinilah tempat kami beli tu. Includinglah my Soroski cross. Chip chip but not axactly cheaplah as compared to Mesia.

This is Rome station bus ala ala macam Central station Kat KL tu lah. Very efficient mode of transportation, but very crowded.

This is one of the italian shops we buy our breakfast and lunch... tengok tu ham .. MASARAP.

it cost only nearly 3 euro for a snack. dah RM 15.00 , adus mahal jugak, kalau KFC kenyang dah kita kan.

As i mentioned before this is one to the designer shops in Rome.. Amazingly beautiful and hexpensive.

Disinilah jugak Diding bought her RM 1000.00 prada Sunglass. adus mahalnya.

This is another monument in Rome ... just around the Termini station ( just a walk away)

P.s. For me Rome is one of the most beautiful country i ever been.. nice weather and historic and religious place. Actually there's alot more places to visit tapi mau tercabut our kaki. penat

Baget travelling ni , but very fun because you go round with your freinds and family.

ROME ( ROMA)

YAHOOOOOOOOOO IM HERE ... GRATCIA............

SPECIAL THANKS TO YOU GUYS...

The whole gang.... ( Thank you guys for the fun and memorable time) special thanks to my sista and Hendrico .

Places of Interest.

The Vatican .

It has been the resident of the Popes for about six centuries ( since 1377). In fact , before the transfer of the Pontificial Court to Avignon (1309 – 1377), the papal seat was the lanteran, 265 Popes have sat one the throne of St. Peter in the uninterrupted line. The Vatican city is an independent state ruled by the Supreme pontiff ( the Pope).

St Peter’s Basalica

Dates of the year 320 AD, when Constantine erected a magnificent Basilica that was the stand for over a thousand years. At the beginning the XVI century thanks to Pope Julius II and the architect on whom he relied ( Donata Bramante) reconstructing of the Basilica was begun. It was completed over one hundred years later with the construction of the façade by Carlo Maderno ( 1614)

St Peter’s Square. ( Piazza San Pietro)

This square, which is the most imposing in Rome, is 240 meters wide by 340 meters long, In the centre stands a wonderful obelisk 25 meters high. A cross, which is said to contain the relic of the holy cross, stand on its top the beautiful colonnade that surrounds the place was realized by Bernini as well as the 140 statues of Saints that

p.s. I will post more of the Vatican City pictures, it seems that this post is too cramp with pics and i couldn't upload more.

This is one of my Paparazi pics of one of the Priest. He is actually going back from the nearest town which situated sorrounding the city. There were a few occasian where we asked if we could take some pictures with them but all of them refuse, i guess its prohibit by the Church. Thats y i told Diding, i want to buy the tailored robe, so siapa nak amik gambar bayar 5 Euros. Mesti kaya aku by that time boleh beli Kristal Sorosky lagi kan.

The inside of the church. Magnifico.

same

same

This was taken at the late evening. Dawn, with the chill and the quietness i felt im in heaven.

honest.. its very calming and gosh sometimes you have to experience it to know how it felt.

same

This is the 140 statue of the saints ... craved by Benini. Purely Magnifico....

The Roman Forum. (Foro Romano)

The Roman Forum is the most celebrated place in ancient Rome, It was the centre of the Roman life where its meeting, festivals and ceremonies took place. There are to be seen the remains of the ancient temples of the ages. It was damaged my be fire in 283 and restored by the Emperor Diocletian. From the fourth century AD it becan fall in decay – echoing the fate of Rome itself.

P.S. This is another landmark of Rome.. This place is surrounded my the Olive tree which was believed a present from the Roman Gods... one for its ability as food, 2. for fuel 3. for phamaceutical, 4. massage oil 5. essential oil and many more. It was also believe that Olive oil cures many disease .. and it turned out to be true kan because it reduces heart problems, betul kan Inday. BTW is the nearby to the colesseum ... maybe lepas kena punish the slaves will be brought to the colesseum to fight kan.

The Colesseum.(II Colesseo)

This immense amphitheatre, of which is still admired the ancient splendour, was begun by Vespasian in A.D. 72 and finished by his son Titus in AD 80. Jewish prisoner were employed in its construction. Its real name is “ Flavian Amphi-theatre”, and it could contain more than 50,000 spectator. Around the exterior run three order arches, respectively adorned with Doric, Ionic and Corinthian pilasters.

P.s. One good thing about the public transportation in Rome is that the exit is not far away from the nearest Landmark of Monuments. When we reach at the coleseo exit the first thing you notice is this big old building and by the time you step out you can see the beutiful big and magnifico building. Semua ternga nga masa tu. I got chills looking at it as all this while i look at it from pictures and documentaries but now its in front of my eyessssssssssss. ahhhhhhhh breathtaking sangat. I suggest for everybody to visit this.... honest you got the chills..

When we reach there another tourist inform us that the entrance fee is around 11 euros but comes to about RM 55.00 adus mahal tak payahlah, so we oll just took some pictures from the outside.

Trinita dei monti

The first thing that strikes us are the charming monumental steps (1722) at whose top there is the church of SS Trinita Dei Monti with the two beautiful belfries ( 1495). An Obelist, found in the garden of sallust in 1808, rises in front the church. At the foot of the steps, prettily lies the fine fountain of the Barcaccia erected in 1629 by Pietro Bernini , the father of the sculptor and architect Gian Lorenzo.

P.S. Ramai sangat orang kat sini loafting around ... enjoying the sun and crowd. We also got to see some low budget movies in progress hehehe and if you climb up the stairs there is a beautiful chuch overlooking the whole of Rome city, there are some local artist selling some paintings and some Bangladeshi jual cenderahati ( yesssssss bangla pun ada kat sana) kelas bangla ni. Nearby is some designer shops later i will post some of the pictures.. kedai pun kelas ... i like.

The exit from the Forum de romano...

More pics of Rome .. stay tuned ya.
