Assalamualaikum w.b.t.

Err.. Helo. Hi. Sorry for the interruption for today’s post. Haha. Saya bukan Cik Saffa ye. Saya Cik Dila. Her friend, classmate and crimemate for every semester. I’ve seen her smile, I’ve seen her being emo, I’ve seen her laugh but the only thing that I haven’t seen is her tears. I guess I’m dealing with a tough girl, maybe?

Actually I don’t really have anything to say but because I have too much time to waste, so why not. I think I’m going to start off with …. Emmm with … with Malay’s style. Not any other style, just the way that the “cool” Malay people dress themselves nowadays.

Okay.. now, u see what I mean here? GUY wearing shawl? C’mon! That was so not cool. This is Malaysia. Malaysia won’t snow. How could you possibly wear shawl when it’s freaking hot?

I went to Shah Alam last 3 weeks and was waiting for my sis at this one corner. Then there was a guy wearing shawl around his neck, tight jeans, shirts, sunglasses and a coat walking in front of everyone at the waiting corner. Everyone was looking at him. And then got a guy said “Baru balik dr London kottt. Aura London tak habis2 lagi”. And everyone was laughing, well of course including me.

What kind of style was that? A very bizarre style. Shawl and sunglasses at the same time? Was him hot or cold? Even others couldn’t appreciate that kind of style. Yes, u can style, this is a free country for God sake kan? But appropriately, can u?

And tight+small shirts? Ohhh another NO NO. Very disturbing to look at. The tight jeans… The tight shirts… Why does everything has to be so tight? This is called as fashion crime u people. I think the tight/skinny jeans go just fine with those people who have nice legs. Not too skeleton and not too big.

I have this friend loves wearing tight and small shirts together with skinny jeans and he is skinny. And so I was so eager to know why men love wearing that kind of shirts and jeans. This was what he told me “Ni kan style Amerika. Ape laa.”. And I went speechless. Then, I replied “Kite org Melayu ke Amerika? Dah xde identiti sdiri ek?”. I was so mad with his answer. Yes, I know that is American style. But HELLO! If you are Malay, then act like one lah kan?

Why do people have to idolize and follow other’s culture? This is my main problem with Malay people. I’m very very very allergic to these kinds of people who don’t appreciate their own culture. U are born Malay. Don’t ever forget your origin.

Okay, cool down dila. Cool down.. Sorry for being emo. Heheh

This is what I declare as fashion! Something good to look at. Oh yes, I know. Jaga pandangan! Jaga pandangan! Well, guys. Clean cut style is not bad. U look smart and very very mature. Very very ambitious too kot? Hahah. Or maybe, just a plain t-shirts with typical jeans. U may look just great! Of course without those skinny jeans and tight shirts + sunglasses in the mall + shawl.

Looking normal is the best. U don’t have to try very hard to outshine others. Sometimes, looking normal like this BEAUTIFUL Remy Ishak is enough to make u look outstanding! Please if u have shawl at home, wear it in ur bedroom or maybe when u go overseas. Tight shirts are not for us, guys ….

And girls, of course. U must be wondering why do I have to attack only the guys style and not girls. Yes, I know. Girls style can be a lot worse to even start with. And to write about how girls should wear, well, everyone knows that observing aurat for girls is a must. So, nothing much to say about girl’s style. Hehe.

I guess that’s all from your guest blogger. I hope u won’t take it to ur heart about what I’ve said in this post. We are gifted to be born in Malaysia. To be born as Malay. And of course to be born as Muslim. So, don’t lose our identity okay. Be proud of it

I’m sorry to have taken ur time. I know u are expecting Miss Saffawati to entertain u with her witty post, right? And I’m very sorry for any wrong facts that I’ve accidently put in my post. To err is human kan?

Salam..

Dislclaimer: This is dLa’s personal opinion..

Our story started 7 years ago.

It was when I was in Form 1 and we were destined to be in the same class.

It was the first week, the week where people are still sticking with their friends from their primary school. Ignoring the students from other school.

Obviously Form 1 is a big change, the first week was kinda a lil bit awkward.. a fresh new start for some people.

Perhaps at that moment, some students would talking about the current hot new guys or bitching about the new cute girls who grabbed people attention. Luckily I’m not included. I’m a cute girl who dont even know who is Justin Timberlake!

Pfft.. Did I just digress? That’s me =___=. Talking excessively. Non stop. Sometimes someone need to shut my mouth off before I spit out something that I would regret later.

BTW, She grabbed people attention when she draws Daniel Radcliffe portrait in the class during free time. It was the first week anyway, remember? boring and dull week when school was just opened. You can say “Who’s Daniel Radcliff?” but I’m pretty sure Harry Potter sound really familiar to you!

During that time, people are going crazy about him! Specky cute guy.. irresistable lah.. EMF? LOL..

She posted this to me when I was in Form 4. At that time I was in MRSM and we writes letters.. Old fashioned..

Out of curiousity, I went to her table. She sat with a specky girl, Najwa Nalis.. The one who persuade me to listen to Justin Timberlake’s songs. Ahaha! That’s how it started. We had few recess time together. The three of us.. and surprisingly become the three musketeer.

She gave one copy to Me and Wawa, keeping the original for her self.

It was fun to remember we did during that year. When we were on the exams. We would write a humorous letter like this on our writing paper:

• Marilah beramai-ramai nyanyie sesamer… Lagu apa kau nadak, aku tak ndak kau ndak kau nyanyielah sengsorang cam badut. Sora kau kan enak eh, salah, salah, slah… lunak…..(…………)
• Teleponku tetiba jek berdering, lagu ct gitu.. Jangan tak caya.. ha tulah, cahaya matahari keringkan luar jer, dalam masih ada kuman.. hoi, chenderit to lah. (……….)

I reckon you would like “huh?”.. Haha.. That’s us! Zall kept most of the letters anyway.. She moved after that year ended, to Klang. Leaving Me and Wawa. The place wasnt so far, but it was hard for us to meet each other.

I contacted her when ever I’m free. Writing letters or grabbed a full hand of coins and headed to public phones. Ten cent per minute! That’s seriously AWESOME.

This’s for my birthday.. along with a small cute box and handkerchief..

There’s some of time where we just ______. Silent. But that’s still didn’t tear us apart. I kept her SMSes in my little book, years ago.

“Its strange the way things change, But as time pass by, Even murderer can turn up good years later, But one thing for sure, That I’m still me coz I still remember and love at any course Remember my friend That u r someone who nobody cant replace..” Zalikha, 24 November 2004

“I can decscribe a fren in many words.. But I can only describe myself as lonely. I can tell U that u r loveable but I can only tell myself dat I’m miserable. However different we’re from each other, we’re still da greatest fren ever!”

“A long year running, n I’m growing older every second. However older I get, it still doesnt make any difference as 2 how wise I would be. Guidance I need, n a loving fren, who’ll always b with me.” Zalikha, 17 September 2006

Our relationship is more like a soul mate, sisterhood and friendship. Its FOREVER. There’s time where we didn’t contact each other for more that three months, I’ missing her but I know that she’s okay. Probably she’s thinking about me too.

This pictures was unfinished =__=. She refuse to finish it..

It’s weird how we always in a good term after more than quarter year didnt contact each other, but yet we talked like we were just talked yesterday. No awkward feeling at all.

ZALIKHA ZAINUDDIN, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART.

I always do.
