NATS Family Day at Janda Baik



After a whole year working and managing the family, the NATS committee suggested that we have our own NATS Family Day. If you are wondering what is NATS. NATS is our very own little group of friends. You can visit our site www.nakatautaksaje.blogspot.com.

Moving on. Amru proposed that we do it at Janda Baik, off Genting Sempah. He says its ideal for families as there is proper changing rooms, surau and an open ground camping space. The rental for the place and food is only RM 25 per pax. So, its agreed. Janda Baik......here we come!!!

Saturday (yesterday) morning we met up at Shahrul's place around 6:30. Yeah...it was difficult for me to leave my comfy warm bed. But I got up, pack up and move out like a proud trooper. The Mrs. didn't follow as she had some family matters to attend in Bangi & also she is almost 5 months pregnant. Don't want to make her more uncomfortable as it is. So, she dropped me off and made her way.

One by one of the peeps arrived. Amru & Siti (plus Amru's apprentees Marina & Asfa), Zul & Mazlina plus the kids. Zareef was all excited that he wore his slippers on the wrong feet.


We made a quick breakfast pit stop at Gembira Restaurant Section 3 for breakfast and then off we go.

Wafi was also a part of our group going to Janda Baik but he wasn't at Shahrul's place as he was attending to his grandma who's in HUKM. We all praying that she get well soon. All our prayers are with her.



After a short stop at HUKM to pickup Wafi, we continued our way to Janda Baik. The place that we had rented is called Camp ABC. It holds training, seminars, team building events, bbqs, get togethers and other events of similar in nature. When we arrived, the place was very hilly, chilly but was refreshing and ultimately nice. We immediately unpack our gear and started to find a spot to pitch the tent (for the young ones). The guys were already giddy to plunge in when they saw the water. I on the other hand snooped around to see the sorroundings.




After enjoying ourselves to a refreshing cool dip, we had some games for the kiddies. It seemed the parents were more looking to it rather than the kids. We played bawak bola ping-pong dalam sudu, tiup tepung and carry your partner race. Everyone enjoyed themselves. Mostly the parents while the kids were trying to figure out what's happening.



 





We had our superb lunch at the camp's mess hall which we had BBQ chicken (Shahrul said it might have been marinated for 13 years, tummy), fried rice, fried kuey tiow, sausage links, veggies and some watermelons. It was included in the package that Amru had taken up. Thanks God, cos after the swin and the games, the last thing that we wanted to do was cooking.


After filling up, we continued the activities with some card and boardgames. The Guesstures boardgmae was a hit with everyone. We teamed up into 2 teams and slug it out. My team (Shahrul,Surini,Zul,Mazlina,Adik Ya and Zareef) won the game hands down. Shahrul & Zul were on the same wavelength from the start.




After the games, some of us went for a quick clean up, prayers and started to pack up for our journey back to Shah Alam. All in all, it was a success. Everyone had fun. We left our daily stresses behind and put our feet up.

Let's do it again next year. This time we"ll make it better than ever. Go NATS Family Day!!!

Tiger Woods Walks Away


Will Tiger come back?

The past two weeks must have been like hell on earth for the most famous golfer on the planet. The news that Tiger Woods,33 crashed his SUV into a fire hydrant and a tree at 2:25 am in front of his multi-million Isleworth, Florida home broke like wildfire across the world. It was alleged that he had a fight with his Swedish wife, Elin Nordegren, 29 about Tiger having an affair.

He was charged and fined $164 by the authorities for careless driving. That amount is spare change to him. Even the SUV that he wrecked would be just one of the number cars he have. But the real damage was to his reputation and most importantly his marriage.


For the past 15 years, Tiger has always say little to the press and let his golf do the talking for him. Tiger would always try to keep his personal life out of the eyes and ears of the public that put him in high esteem. People will be in awe of his presence for his elegance, precision and smart. But no more. Now his reputation as a "good guy" is forever ripped to shreds. Now he looks sloppy, dirty and dumb.


Last Friday, Tiger made a statement on his official website  www.tigerwoods.com that read, " I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children". He goes to add on, " After much soul searching, I have decided to take an indefinite break from professional golf. I need to focus my attention to being a better husband, father and person". I personally think this is the smartest decision that he ever made on or off the golf course.


It has emerged since then that Tiger have been having several extra-marital affairs. All the "birdies" that he have put in have come out and told their stories. Text messages, videos and short stories are being told by there money grabbing girls that don't realized that the happiness of a young family is in danger. Greed is the main order of the day for these slutty girls.




 Rachel Uchitel, first uncovered birdie

Tiger's decision to take an indefinite break would be a huge loss to the game of golf but when push comes to shove, the happiness of his two young children, Sam Woods and Charlie Woods, and also Elin's are the most important. Tiger has made money from the game and I personally think that he has loss the love for the game. He will need all the focus that won him all those major, trophies, money and accolades to rebuild his reputation and importantly the trust between him and Elin.




 The Woods family in better times


So, I applaud Tiger's decision to focus on what that really matters. I'll raise my glass to him for that.

Selangor Increases Mas Kahwin to RM 300. WTH!!!!



Just watched Buletin Utama on TV3 and the news that really got my attention was that those who wants to get married in Selangor would need to pay RM 300 (minimum) for mas kahwin and no ceiling rate (leaving this  to the discretion of the marrying couple). That's almost a 200% increase from the RM 80 previously set for mas kahwin.

The JAIS officer said that it was high time that the rate was increased. WTH!! Maybe because me being a guy would think this increment is going to be a burden to the men. It's already enough parents these days set high dowry payments for their daughters hand (jual anak), then you get this announcement?  I hope guys out there don't start to turn to snatching, burglary or other crimes in order to find cash just to get married. I'm really glad that I got married this year. And yes, my wife is from Selangor. Dodged a bullet there.

My advice to those who plan to get married......go and look outside of Selangor. It's just not worth it.

My First Nuffnang Payment

A few months ago, I received my first payment from Nuffnang. It wasn't that much but seeing that this was my first chance to cash out, I cashed out once it reached the limit. I didn't photocopy the actual cheque but do still have the payment advice.



Since this first cheque from Nuffnang, I have received a few more payments.  So, far getting extra money is very nice *smile*


It pays to say what you want to say or what you are passionate about.So,thanks Nuffnang!!! The cash would be very handy when me and my wife welcome the new addition to our small family in May next year.

P/S: My nuffnang earnings for last week haven't been updated. Do other nuffnangers got their's updated yet??

Bad Day singer Daniel Powter named Decades One Hit Wonder



Canadien singer/songwriter Daniel Powter who stayed at the No 1 spot  with the song "Bad Day" on the Billboards charts for 5 weeks in 2006 was today named as decade's top one hit wonder. The criteria for an act (person/group) is chosen is that their second hit wont reach the Top 25. The songs were judged for those coming out between year 2000 - 2007.

This song was popular as the "going home" song on American Idol. Powter took a couple of years off after Bad Day before producing his next album.

To me, it is a good solid, catchy song describing an average guy/girl's day. Plus, it has a great video music featuring Samaire Armstrong. She was the only reason I watched The OC during its first season.

Nice

Dont remember which song? Here is the music video.

Breasts Staring Increases the Lifespan of Men (a researched finding)



(as printed in The Star, Saturday 5th December 2009, page N52)

Yup! Finally, we men have proof now (and a good documented reason) whenever we men are caught ogling or staring or mezmerised by a woman's chest or buxom or breasts or...hehehe...I'm just getting a wee bit excited now.

A German reseach that was published in the New England Journal of Medicine (yup, this journal really does exist) showed that men who stare or ogle or watch with fascination (there I go again getting excited..hahaha) at woman's breasts for at least 10 minutes a day is equivalent to a 30 minute gym workout. Damn! I always knew there was a better way to get fit rather than going to the gym, but on the other hand, the gym is the place to be , if you know what I mean..hehehe (again, excuse me..excitement = me).


 This kid will have a long life. He is starting young. Lucky boy.

The research team had spent 5 years doing research on 200 men. Results showed that men staring at women's breasts have lower blood pressure, suffer less cardiovascular diseases and slower heart rate. The head researcher, Dr. Karen Weatherby (a lady some more!) says that sexual desire ensured better blood circulation and led to better health.

I have a few questions for this Dr. Weatherby. They are as follows:
  1. Why wasn't I inform about this research? I would've gladly be one of the 200 participants. I even pay you to get in.
  2. Do the breasts need to be covered or not covered? In any ways, I am happy.
  3. Does the size of the boobs influence how long or longer your lifespan will be? I need to know this. Its a matter of life or death damnit!
  4. So, I need to this everyday? (Refer to the picture below)

I need to do this 30-minutes a day? I'll do it another 30 if it helps me live longer

Spesis bodoh dan pendek akal yang merosakkan pemikiran wanita muda



Terdapat satu spesis manusia yang selalunya terdiri di kalangan kaum Hawa (selalunya kakak-kakak atau makcik-makcik yang dah berumahtangga) yang suka menyebarkan cerita-cerita atau mitos-mitos tentang alam perkahwinan yang tidak benar kepada perempuan yang nak jejak alam perkahwinan.

Di antara mitos-mitos ini ialah:
  • "malam pertama" @ (first night) alam perkahwinan adalah menyakitkan dan berdarah teruk bagi perempuan dan selalunya akan lebih sakit selepas itu.
  • kalau nak beranak biarlah hospital swasta sebab layanan hospital kerajaan (atau government) tidak lah bagus.
  • kalau nak anak berkulit cerah & gebu, minumlah soya banyak-banyak semasa mengandung,
  • pilihlah lelaki yang kaya raya & berpangkat tinggi, hidup pasti senang-lenang.
  • jangan biar suami atau bakal lelaki kelihatan menarik, biarlah gemuk dan hodoh sebab nanti perempuan lain terpikat. Tak nak bermadu atau di tinggalkan untuk perempuan lain.

Terdapat berberapa lagi mitos atau pemikiran fantasi golongan ini yang tak sempat saya letakkan di sini sebab saya kekadang rasa golongan ini patut di maki hamun sahaja di hadapan khalayak ramai. Mereka ini hanya ingin menjadikan perkara-perkara di atas sensasi & ingin menunjukkan mereka lebih berpengalaman tetapi yang ternyatanya mereka hanya menyukarkan permulaan hidup berumahtangga bagi wanita-wanita muda & indirectly pada suami-suami muda juga.

Di sini saya ingin memberi beberapa pernyataan balas atau counter remarks pada mitos sebaran kaum pendek akal yang saya letak di atas:
  • "malam pertama" atau "first night" pada awalnya sedikit pedih tetapi bukan utk selama2nya. selepas si suami dapat "masuk" dan dapat "rentak", ia satu perkara yang indah dan nikmat utk pasangan pengantin baru. Tak percaya? Tanya lah isteri saya.

senyuman menceritakan segalanya..kepuasan

  • hospital swasta & hospital kerajaan sama sahaja layanannya. Bezanya hospital swasta lebih mahal dan cekik darah. Saya berpengalaman di mana saya dan isteri terpaksa menunggu selama 4 jam (9.30 pagi hingga 1.30 petang) utk check up monthly kehamilan isteri saya. Lepas tu kena charge ratusan ringgit. What the fu*k??!! Hospital kerajaan mungkin lebih cepat & charge medical bill hanya separuh, maybe sesuku dari hospital swasta.

Hospital kerajaan pun bagus ..kebanyakkannya lebih bagus dari swasta
  • no offense to my dark skin readers, minumlah bertong-tong susu soya pun, kalau Tuhan nak bagi anak berkulit gelap, berkulit gelaplah dia.
 
Minum soya boleh jadikan anak berkulit cerah?? Nonesense!!!
  • lelaki kaya & berpangkat tinggi tak semestinya menjanjikan kebahagiaan. Di sini, yang penting ialah pegangan agama dan budi bahasa si lelaki. Status kewangan juga memang penting. Biarlah ada kerja tetap dan stabil serta berkemampuan. Itu sudah cukup.
  • kalau biar lelaki gemuk dan hodoh, nanti mugnkin cepat mati atau nanti si isteri sendiri tak selera utk sex. Kalau si suami berstamina dan handsome (kemas & segak), hubungan suami isteri mesti lagi best.
Itu adalah counter remarks saya pada mitos-mitos sebaran si kaum kakak-kakak dan makcik-makcik yang takde kerja lain selain dari mejadikan perkara-perkara kecil ini sensasi dan hanya ingin menjadikan hidup mereka lebih interesting padahal poyo dan hampeh.

Insaflah wahai kakak2 & makcik2. Carilah kerja lain selain dari memenuhkan kepala bakal si isteri dgn perkara2 yang tak berguna. Cuba bantu dan beri nasihat seperi hormatilah, taat & patuh pada suami yang bertanggungjawab & baik . Layanilah suami dengan baik kerana insya'Allah layanan yang sama akan di terima semula oleh si isteri.

P/S: Posting entry ini di letakkan selepas terpaksa menunggu selama 4 jam di hospital swasta dan di kenakan bill pregnancy check yang beratusan ringgit.

Whats the fuss with Twilight & New Moon



The latest movie from the Twilight series, New Moon came out last week. So far I have successfully avoided from being dragged by the missus to see this potentially 2 hours waste of my life on earth. She already wasted almost 3 hours of it by making me watch Babylon A.D. Babylon what?? Yes, exactly. The main attraction for her to watch that "3 hours that I wont ever get back" movie was the bald guy that was also in The Fast and The Furious.

3 hour snooze-fest movie

The bald guy from The Fast & The Furious


My friends especially the guys are totally against this movie. Even my boss calls it a freaking gay movie. Back to my friends. Some of my comrades have fallen due to being enticed by their better halves. There is no way a guy with an ounce of self respect, a pair of cahonas and the right set of brain matter in between his two ears would ever voluntarily watch a movie showing two guys being played by a pale skin girl.

I know the attraction or pull of the New Moon movie to the females but I dont get it when some guys can say "its an interesting movie" or "damn good movie". WTF?!!. Come on guys. Just admit it. You were duped & seduced to watch this movie by your gfs or wife. End of story. Your dignity and right to continue to exist in the male world is still safe. Well, with me anyways.

One of the NATS (visit www.nakatautaksaje.blogspot.com) brothers, Bozord put up a spoof poster proclaiming the idiocy of this movie. To me, the spoof poster just says it all.

Lionel Messi honoured to receive Ballon d'Or 2009 Award



Argentina and Barcelona superstar was awarded the Ballon d'Or for 2009 taking over from last year's winner Portuguese ace Cristiano Ronaldo. He won 473 of the 480 of the votes to win the award from France Football Magazine. The award is done through voting among the world's top football journalists.

He has taken up all top 3 places since debuted at No 3 in 2007, 2nd in 2008 and now being voted the best player in Europe. He mentioned that this was an honour and then wishes that the Albiceste (Argentina National team) plays the similar style as the Blaugrana (Barca) and that Argentina legend and current coach, Diego Armando Maradona is his only football idol.

2008 Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo

Second place was won by Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi's Barcelona teammate, Xavi Hernandes took third.

Messi is the favourite to win the FIFA's World Player of The Year award but he is not in the running for NATS Players' Choice Best Player of The Year award. The NATS award is the most prestigious award that can be won by any footballer.

The NATS Players' Choice Best Player of The Year award is awarded through voting among NATS members and they cannot vote for themselves. That is why it the second most prestigious award after the World Cup.

United close the gap to Chelsea with win over Pompey

 
Wazza wheeling off to celebrate his second goal

A Wayne Rooney hat-trick and a peach of a free kick from Giggsy capped off a solid performance by Manchester United in their chase to close the gap with Chelsea. Portsmouth scored their goal from the penalty spot from Kevin Prince Boateng after a dodgy decision by the linesman. United won the match 4 - 1 on Avram Grant's 1st game in charge at Fratton Park.

 
Giggsy celebrating his 100th EPL goal and Utd's 4th with hattrick hero Wazza

Giggsy was the man of the match in my eyes as he constantly terrorised the Pompey defence and it was a fitting birthday present for the United legend who will celebrate his 36th birthday today.

Bullard's Celebration of The Season




Bullard re-enacting Phil Brown's half time on the pitch team talk


Also, the celebration from Jimmy Bullard was the best goal celebration by far this season. He mocked the telling off done by his manager at Hull, Phil Brown at the same fixture last year.
