report from monte carlo: both mclarens are unstopable!
there may be lots of thought playing in kimi’s head. “am i really making the right move to ferrari? those mclarens look impressing this season..” or more harsher thought of “what the hell is michael doing coming over and becomes ferrari’s so called ‘consultant’? enough already!” and what about the thought of “what can i do to imrove myself? it looks like i’m losing myself..” it’s really frustrating to see kimi seemingly struggle when he should be a fierce contender of the championship, and it’s surely more so frustrating for the man himself.
monaco has always been a special track. i remembered few years back when kimi winning over here, on press conference, with eyes suspiciously teary that he quickly covered by rubbing over them with towel, that special proud smile on his face saying something along the line of “people tends to see you differently when you win over here..” yes, only precise driving is acceptable around here. small mistake by kimi caused him to miss Q2. the only man behind him at the end of Q2 session was david coulthard who was being punish for “holding off” kovailenen.
as usual, i hold a very high hope on kimi. back then in mclaren, he used to start on 17th place and emerged as the winner. he numerously (yeahh, a little bit of exaggerating here, heh) start at 18th place, and finish 3rd. back then, as my friend used to say, it was either he finished on podium or he did not finish at all (due to lots and lots of car’s problem..or people hitting him..or that 1 time when he went over the top of a jordan – literally, hehe). yeah, i expected him to finish on podium.
at the start of the race, finally kimi did something great by passing few cars and gained 3 places, from 15th to 12th. alonso did what he did best whenever he has the chance of starting on poll – pulling away from everyone. anyhow, lewis managed to match most of his lap times and both mclarens have been changing fastest laps between them. everybody else didn’t even came closer.
kimi at first was stuck behind button’s honda. there was no way to pass button what with the car’s wings create downforce that make it hard for another car to overtake yadaa yadaa those technical stuffs (or might as well called excuses :p). hey, if my memory served me right, when kimi was in mclaren, he used to be so quick and overtook someone. “he made it look so easy for a driver to overtook in monaco” that was what the commentator said, or something like that. the daring montoya also had few shares of overtaking in monaco, i believe, hmmm. it was a highly frustrated race overall. i felt like bashing my head on the table.
kimi managed to finish on point. last available point. those remaining 4 places he gained through pitstop strategy. kimi had 1, whilst that unfortunate 4 drivers had 2. alonso lapping everyone until the 3rd man massa. lewis looked like he want to challenge alonso after his 2nd pitstop, but then he held himself back *sigh* (ron dennis of mclaren was caught saying to the press that the team already decided on who should win this race beforehand to avoid unwanted damage to the car). massa had a quiet race by himself and gained 3rd place ahead of fisichella, the best result for fisi and renault so far this season. kubica finished 5th in front of his team mate, heidfeld. alex wurz (former mclaren test driver – i always had fond memories of those that have been working in mclaren team, hehehe) finished 7th, also the best result for him. it was a shame that nico who did qualify in 6th place only manage to get 12th due to poor pitstop strategy *sigh*
all in all, lewis is now back on tied at the top with his team mate alonso with 38 points. massa is third with 33 points. kimi is now fourth with 23 points and heidfeld is behind him with 18 points. mclaren has 76 points, 20 points ahead of ferrari (wohoooo). bmw is third with 30 points.
montreal counting as of today : 11 days. we’ll have back to back race at 1am, malaysian time, hahahhaha. great! *roll eyes*

the “why?”
after migrating everything to this wordpress, i composed a short message “aku pindah blog sementara..” to all friends and those that i feel qualified to read my blog. some of them receiving this news without question. delin even mentioning her new blog to me, hehehe. some just keep quiet. and most of them came out with the biq w, “why?”
this is the big why my friends.
a few months ago, i was suspecting unwanted readers. i even wrote an emotional entry, shooing them out. one of them respond by emailing me, sort of asking what’s her fault and saying that she’s sorry (even without knowing her fault, huhu). i read through that email and deleted it. yes, i could be cruel sometime. the other one does not take any notice and continue reading my blog (bebal sungguh!)
this other one, i was suspecting at first, when his wife mentioning something along the line “*** tahu ke? kenapa dia tulis macam tuh dalam email?” (note: email tuh maybe ada salah komunikasi, should be ‘blog’). i was lashing out in my blog, prior to something he did, something unacceptable to me. in my deepest hope, he would stop reading my blog after i warned those unwanted readers, but to no avail :(
on a more latest news, suddenly his wife mention to me, “xxx cakap, *** kena raba ek? ada tulis dalam blog?” i was like “huh?” that was my limit. i did not write my entries to be discussed at lenghth by someone that i nearly despise (as per what he had done, that was very unacceptable to me).
day by day, i became more uncomfortable blogging freely, hence this migration. i’ll continue blogging about mundane issue in blogger but the same issues and more, could be viewed here.
i wanna go home now, i’ll whine some other day :P jya ne!
change of venue (for the timebeing)
i’m unease over the fact that my blog was/is read by someone that i almost despise. the fact that the person relaying everything he read to my sis does not help either. so, for the time being (at least for 3 months or more), i’d only post f1 related entry in the blogspot and everything else will go here.
anyhow, i’ve been meaning to migrate to wordpress since last year. features offered by wordpress somehow more appealing than blogger. but my blogger blog hold so many memories and that very fact makes me reluctant to let go. so here i am, updating in both blog, hehehhe.
i’ll update later. jya ne!

report from catalunya: disaster everywhere!
starting from trulli stalling just before the light was about to go off, the evening spelt d.i.s.a.s.t.e.r. alonso, under a lot of pressure to perform well in his hometown, lost his head and his position right from the first chicane. lewis kept his head and passed kimi to claim 2nd place. kimi passed the off-from-track alonso and kept his 3rd place.
collition happened then between the back runners. wurz then retired. webber was asked to retired after a hydraulic failure. then it was trulli turn. kimi was running fine, matching lewis pace and he was actually a bit quicker than lewis when suddenly i saw one by one the car was passing him on the live timing. i was devastated. kimi crawled back to the pit and retired. the race was officially over for me *sigh* (updated: it was some electronic failure or something)
i kept on watching but my concentration was diverted. i then picking up my phone to convey the bad news to my beloved. he comforted me and somehow i feel better. well, there is next race in 2 weeks time you know. kimi will just have to do better there!
maybe it was just me, but i do believe kimi is changed. gone is my daredevil kimi, that used to push his car so hard beyond the car’s capacity to win. now in his place is somewhat calculative and conservative driver. ferrari, give me my old kimi or i want my money back! :p
after all those drama and disaster, the height of the evening came from the back. fight for 5th place between nico, kovaleinen and coulthard and for 8th place between sato and fishichella. there was never really a fight, just exchanged of few quick laps to catch up each other.
the results? we have rookie leading the championship with 30 points! alonso 2nd with 28 points and massa 3rd with 27 points. kimi now demoted to 4th place with 22 points ahead of nick heidfeld who also did not finish the race with 15 points.
anyhow, massa won, followed by lewis and alonso. kubica snatched 4th place. coulthard maintained his 5th place from nico and kovalainen whilst sato remained 8th ahead or fishichella. only 14th cars finish the race. the worst record ever this season after 4 weeks break.
we’ll be back in 2 weeks time hopefully with the old feisty kimi. stay tune!

pucat, tensi, happy (err)
workloads at the office suddenly going on exponen curve (pinjam ayat pengkritik do you think you can dance, hahaha). i rarely talk about work, whether to my family or in this very blog because i don’t really like to talk about work. period. anyhow, for our current project, staffs working here have been under enermous pressure. the biggest foe is the time. i’ve been involved in 3 projects, and this one sure beat others. staffs have been working from 8am until 930pm, then continue working at home. giler hapa, sampai schedule 3 module testing per day with kadang2 module owner tuh pun kena testkan 2 module dia sehari. dengan module owner terkapai2 menyiapkan mana sempat, yours truly semalam sampai tak turun makan pun nak siapkan testscript. mujur bawak bekal. makan bekal jer kat pantry selama 10 minit. no time to waste maa.
pagi ni datang2 keje tengok muka erin pucat ajer. kesian ibu2 mengandung tuh tak cukup tido. bila aku katakan dia pucat, dia plak katakan aku juga pucat datang pagi2 itu, hahahha. imagine laa 815 3 orang dah siap membuat kerja dah. melampau betul kurasakan. aku pagi ni pon bangun awal tak tido balik. kul 715 dah pergi keje, coz got 3 modules punya testscript nak kena siap b4 balik ni karang. hadeiii. another friend of mine telah tensen2 membuat kerja secara berlebihan. note that we don’t get any OT allowance or project allowance. untuk staff yg lama2 skets, adalaaa nak kasik sedap, dalam gaji tulis “fixed allowance = rm500″, nak kasik nampak cun laa. padahal basic dah adjust supaya basic + allowance = sama laa macam gaji2 fresh grad di kebanyakan tempat, huhuhu. hujung tahun lepas dah berharapan tinggi sebab dijanjikan nak dapat project allowance, tapi sampai sekarang tak nampak bayang walau rm1 pun. to compesate that, those yang dah keje lebih 2 tahun dapat 5% raise from the company. kesian mereka2 yang baru masuk tuh.
anyhow, ke-pressure-an telah membawa blissfull bencana semalam, hahaha. went to ou with wan liana. nak beli a pair of new sandal since old sandal dah hampir nazak. i am a rare woman species that only own a pair of sandal (yang dipakai hari2), another pair of backup sandal (in case sandal putus di tengah jalan) and a pair of sneaker untuk ke sepang, hahahahha. bila sandal dah nazak, buy another one. camtuh jerlaa kan.
BUT..semalam masuk2 ke vinci, tetiba tengok banyakkkkkkkkkkk sandal2 yang sungguh comel. saya telah memegang 3 pasang sandal nak test try. pehtu, slamber beli semuanya, hahahahha. siap guna pepatah becky, “saya kan nak guna semua sandal2 ni. lepas ni saya tak payah beli dah”. huhuhuhu. makanya, terpaksa kuburkan niat di hati ingin membeli buku shopaholic and baby pada bulan ini. mujur ada stok buku2 yang dibeli menggunakan duit pinjam, hahahhaha.
so this morning, despite the resolution to work for 12 hours straight and bangun pagi2 buta untuk pergi kerja, i was strangely happy in my new pair of shoes/sandals. untuk tatapan riang ria semua orang, mari kita lihatt.
sandal merah yang chomellll
kasut ke sandal ke? kasut open toes? ahahah blasah. comel kan beriben2?
sandal/terompah ini nampak comel dari sisi ajo, hahahah, tetap beli tuh :p
kasut2 ke sandal2 yang berbahagia di atas tila bercadar garfield, hehe
kasut pilihan di kaki saya pada hari ini, hehehe

fruitful weekends
saya adalah sangat gembira sekali setelah berjaya menghabiskan hujung minggu saya dengan perkara2 yang menyeronokkan dan berfaedah kepada emosi dan jiwa saya (ehem). mula-mula sekali, saya telah berjaya balik kampung pada jam 4 pagi bersama pakwe saya yang tercinta itu. opss, pakwe saya takla balik kampung ngan saya, dia balik melaka, saya buat detour ajerla. saya balik pukul 4 pagi kerana saya hendak pergi ke pasar dengan riang ria mencari maman bersama emak saya yang tersayang. saya hendak membeli maman kerana baby dalam perut kawan saya telah menyampaikan isyarat kepada kawan saya bahawa dia hendak makan rendang maman campur ayam yang dimasak oleh emak saya. emak saya sungguh terharu sekali, lalu menyatakan persetujuannya untuk memasak rendang maman untuk kawan saya dan babynya itu.
pada jam 340 pagi, saya telah bertolak dari kj menujuk ke sentul, rumah pakwe saya itu. bila saya dah nak sampai ke rumah dia, saya terkejut beruk kerana tiba2 ada sebiji motor menghampiri saya. saya fikirkan motor itu hendak mengharass saya, tetapi rupa-rupanya itu adalah motor pakwe saya sendiriks. owhhh malunya saya yang berprasangka liar tadi. pakwe saya rupa-rupanya hendak menghantar abang dia pergi kerja di pasar berhampiran. dia mengisyaratkan supaya saya tunggu di tepi jalan. saya yang mamai fikirkan dia memberi isyarat nak makan, hahahhaha. bila saya dah hampir nak terlelap di tepi jalan tersebut, pakwe saya pun muncul. kami pun memulakan perjalanan pulang.
kami tiba di melaka pada pukul 650 pagi. mula-mula saya nak sarapan. kemudiannya, saya yang mamai lupa lokasi sebenar tempat selalu saya sarapan, maka saya batalkan niat suci perut saya yang agak lapar itu. saya pun meninggalkan pakwe saya di rumah pakngah dia, lalu saya memecut pulang ke rumah. saya tiba di gemas pada pukul 800. emak saya selamba tak baca sms saya yang mengatakan saya dah nak tiba. maka saya pun menunggu emak saya bersiap pula. kemudian kami ke pasar dan membeli macam2 barang yang malas saya nak taipkan kesemuanya di sini.
balik daripada pasar, saya masak mee goreng dengan gembiranya. setelah sarapan, saya menonton pendekar bujang lapok di astro sampai saya terlena tanpa disedari di depan tv. kemudian saya masuk ke bilik dan membuat aktiviti2 biasa yang saya lakukan di dalam bilik. setelah puas bergolek2, saya ke dapur dan memasak lala pula.
sebelah malamnya, baru saya sedar, america’s next top model sudah masuk season 8. saya ketinggalan rupanya. saya dengan pantasnya mengarahkan utorrent saya mendownload siri tersebut.
pada hari ahad saya gerak-gerak khas awal daripada rumah dengan niat mahu menggolek2 bersama anak saya di melaka. saya telah membawa pakwe saya bersama supaya dia dapat berjumpa dengan buah-hati-daripada-jauh dia, anak saya yang bongsu itu. anak saya itu baru saja nak beramas mesra dengan saya sejak kami pergi ke family day co tempoh hari.
saya sungguh terharu kerana anak saya masih ingat dan mahu beramas mesra dengan saya. lebih mengharukan saya lagi, anak saya sudah pandai memanggil saya “ngah”. entah di manalah dia belajar memanggil saya itu. owhhh. saya berjalan merata2 tak pakai selipar, maka azim telah memanggil2 saya “ngah ngah”. saya fikirkan dia mahu berdukung dan berjalan2. rupa-rupanya, dia menunjuk2 ke selipar saya. bila saya pakai selipar, dia pun pergi main jauh2. ahahahha, sungguh bijaksana anak saya itu, ehem.
saya nak mengkidnap anak saya itu, tetapi dia adalah malu2 kucing dengan pakwe saya. dia buat2 macho ajer bila pakwe saya cium pipi dia. ehehhehe. bila pakwe saya nak amik dia, dia telah menggenggam baju saya kuat2. saya pura2 nak kasik dia kat pakwe saya, dia pon senyum ajer tersipu2. bila nak balik saya ternampak kesan luka di tangan dia. saya pun jampikan “rama-rama dalam baju, makin lama makin gadu” kat dia. dia sangat suka dan menyuruh saya menjampi sampai 3 kali, ehehe.
sebelum masuk ke highway, pakwe saya telah berjaya membeli 2 biji durian. saya fikirkan dia yang nak makan. rupa2nya, agaknya dia teringat saya mengadu nak makan durian tapi tak dapat2. jadi dia belikan kat saya. huwaaa, saya terharu. terima kasih sayang *blush*
selepas pulang ke kl, kami pergi ke pesta buku. saya telah berjaya meminjam rm100 daripada ayah saya untuk membeli buku. akhirnya saya telah berjaya membeli 4 buah buku. 1 buku faisal tehrani, 1 buku ahadiat akashah dan 2 buku noor soraya. ahhh, best2.
kami makan lemang + rendang maman dan durian di titiwangsa tanpa memperdulikan persekitaran. saya membuat lawak kepada pakwe saya, “kang ada plak orang sergah..kasik salam tanya kita buat apa. kita ajak dia makan durian laa ek”. pakwe saya pun gelak mendengar lawak saya yang hampeh itu, ehehhe. setelah kenyang, kami pun pulang.
sekian sahaja laporan hujung minggu saya yang sungguh cemerlang, gemilang dan terbilang. terima kasih.
