Sentimental

Langit petang dan burung terbang pulang sarang... Matahari garang dan suara-suara girang... Pohon nyiur tunjang dan tanah lembab separa padang... Katil bujang dan radio usang... Wajah-wajah yang ku sayang... Sekala lagi, selamat tinggal itu bertandang... Resam anak dagang harus terbang...

Mana hati tidak sarat pabila harus diheret jauh dari damai nikmat nian... Kata org tua, alah bisa, tegal biasa... sungguh bagai dikata, namun apabila alahnya tentang berpisah... berkali sudah, hati tidak pernah biasa... Menatap redup wajah berkasih sang ibu, memaut rapat naungan cinta sang ayah... Mana hati tidak merasa payah... Tawa jenaka kekanda-kekanda yang tidak pernah reda... pasti merantai rindu, sarat terbelenggu....

Namun, untuk sebuah janji pada pertiwi... segenggam cita untuk hari muka... dan sejunjung kurnia dari yang Esa... Kan ku heret jua jasad dan jiwa... Untuk kesekian kalinya... tempat ini harus ku tinggalkan lagi...

Tersurat sudah perjalanan ini... lalu harus terus menerokai... lewat setiap langkah, mengharap adanya indah kesudahan menanti... kesudahan yang tak pasti sungguh harapan tidak pernah mati... bersilih ganti manusia menemani, ada yg menjadi kenalan, ada yang menjadi teman, ada yang menjadi intan... yang datang bersilih pulang, yang pergi kembalinya jarang... cuma, moga ada yang terpaut sayang, tidak pula menjadi hilang...

Bukan mudah menimbang rasa, antara pertiwi dan sanubari... Pada bintang jauh dan awan langit tujuh, sehembus rahsia disemadi... Moga pabila siraman hujan melalui... Tercurah penuh misteri hasrat itu ke bumi lalu butir hujan menyentuh hati yang mengerti...

Sekali lagi... aku harus pergi... cuma kali ini, biarlah putar masa itu lebih bererti kerana harap semakin sudah ku semi dan seraut hari esok sudah terintai oleh mata hati...

Sungguh, ku serahkan pada Ilahi... siapa dapat menduga, esoknya aku masih di bumi...

Transition

Sometimes I wonder if I would still blog after I go back for good since it always turns out that I don’t really blog whenever I return to Malaysia. I’m back in Melbourne again. Despite everything I said about this place. I'm always thankful that I’m studying here. 8 hours is long enough, can’t imagine going further. Let alone going back during a short winter break like I just did. Haha… However, regardless how good Melbourne is, coming back here is never easy. It is not the place, it’s the transition. Travelling is tiring. Yes, like yesterday, I had to take two flights, one from Penang to KL, then KL to Melb, it is a lot more tiring for someone like me who could barely sleep in a plane. That’s why I enjoy traveling during the day and taking a window seat. I enjoy day dreaming while staring at those fluffy white clouds. Haha.. Weather change changes everything. I had never went back during winter before. So that was my first time experiencing an abrupt change from a...

Willful Ignorance

I was too busy with architecture for the last few weeks.. . haven’t really got a chance to get my head around what’s going on in the world, especially back home in Malaysia. I felt detached from reality. I felt like I was living in ignorance. I felt guilty. Therefore, since I finished my final presentation yesterday (still got 2 submissions coming though)… Today, I decided to take a day off from architecture. I went out for a good lunch with a friend, had some retail therapy… and came back, get on the internet and try to update myself with some of the current issues. I read. I read. I read and I read. As a result. I feel sick. And I still feel guilty, way worse… I feel guilty and hopeless for knowing things I could never really do anything about. I know... I know...I know I’m a little behind. But I still need to put more efforts in understanding the following issues, I’m feeling lost and mentally constipated just by reading one or two news/articles/blogposts about them. 1. ...

Kerja Tak Siap Lagi!

I guess one of the real problem with Malaysian Architecture is it lacks of publication even on the internet. I have been browsing for Malaysian architecture these few days and surprisingly I found that there are many amazingly great projects back home. I stumbled upon many photos of interesting designs that I wish I could dig further for my assignment. But it is frustrating that how brief most of the information is. I also wonder if having a website is such a big deal (expensive, is it?) since not many firms have a website, let alone a good one. Some websites I have to say are not inviting at all. Many use dark/navy blue as the primary color, why is it? I don’t hate blue, but it’s not tasty at all as an architecture website… I also found some real good architects who keep blogs, but the problem with a blog is, it depends on the updates. Therefore, even if it is a current project (since some projects run for years), but if the post was 7 months ago, the blog seems abandoned. Besides, it...
