Assalamualaikum everyone.

Pre-occupied with school and dikir and etc, furthermore I have a limited access to the Internet so I have not been updating much. Dikir now is like an addiction. And my studies may be affected. I also can’t seem to finish my art coursework. I even gave permission to slap me in the face kalau aku belum sedar my position.

Dikir becomes an addiction to me because I feel like I have a foster family. I feel secure just being among the members of Tumpat. Bestlah. It becomes like a you massage my back I massage your back. [@ the chalet, we sat in a circle and massaged each other’s back while we dikired. Then Irzad punched Dapi’s back. Aper lagi? Semua keropok dier. Shiok giler!] In my current position, some are very supportive others like Ah Phat, hate it that I am now an “Orang Kuat” of Tumpat. Others like Amin congratulated me for being in Celopar/Celupar [not too sure which is the right spelling] Well happiness has to end soon. I would have to stop until I have finished my o levels. Sedih sehh!
People involved in Project Celopar:
Mas, Azie, Wan, Bob, Nawi, Sharil [juara], Ah Pai [karut], Aidil [rebana], Rafiq [anak]. and others.
There is something bout Wan which is déjà vu. He reminds me of Zulkifli my primary school best friend. And so it seems I have known him for a long time. Every time he says something to me, it happened before [as in déjà vu]. His also quite friendly and full of useful ideas. Macam dah kenal bertahun tahun. Don’t much bout him ah tapi like I said, so déjà vu. Coincidence? Well there is no such thing. Everything happens for a reason.
Anyway, the last two Celopar practises was a total waste of time…. Why? The oldies decided to have their own happy hour pukul 3 dekat the kedai kopi cum pasar near the Henderson CC. I came at around 2 thirty dari Masjid Kampung Siglap. Ate nasi goreng ikan bilis [my fav] and Milo peng [milo ice] courtesy of Ah Pai. Then Suhardi [karut /songwriter], Wan [leader of Anak Watan], Rafiq went back to the cc and I jammed. The next few hours were merepek… we only managed to find the melody for the lagu juara. That was until 8. [sigh] Then I headed home with Ubay [naik train menuju eastside]. Yesterday lagi, like nasi tambah kepala itik tiga. We jammed a few songs. There was only me, dapi, rock, jo, rafiq, ubay and wan. It seems as if my arteries wall were goin to burst even though they are made of three layers of muscular walls. I arrived at 7, they came at 8 we only started at 8.30 and we only remembered the melody of the song at 9. Dikir was still enjoyed.

I made a short skit in my free time. Here is how it goes…

“Tuan Dalang lupakan saja si dia yang telah mengkhianati dirimu. Lupakanlah saja kata dusta dari mulutnya yang tidak pernah keluarkan kata-kata yang ikhlas dari hatinya. Lupakanlah perbuatan-perbuatan jijiknya. Raja sudah meminta kehadiranmu di pentas wayang nya. Tuan Dalang tidak boleh menjauhkan diri dari kerja kerana hal ini. Kupinta Tuan Dalang memikir tentang ini. Pergilah, pentas wayangmu menunggu.” Kata-kata si Bendahara memujuk Si Dalang supaya Istana Raja Putera kembali berwayang.

“Hamba sudah bertemu dengan seseorang lain yang layak memulih hati hamba yang kian berluka seperti di batu di hempaskan di kaca. Itu semua kerja Si Dia! Bernafsu durjana! ….
Bagaikan selembut kain sutera cina,
Bagaikan sesuci embun di alam maya,
Ikut rasa binasa, Ikut nafsu durjana,
Kerna nila setitik, rosak susu seblangah.

Sekarang dia sedang mengerjakan lagi dua mangsa yang tidak kenal akan takdir mereka. Patut kah hamba beritahu mereka? Atau hamba hanya berdiam diri supaya tidak melepar fitnah? …..” bersuara Si Dalang.

“Berdoalah, kerna sesungguhnya Allah maha pengasih lagi maha penyayang….”
