Kapal Terbang, terbang rendah!

Sebuah kapal terbang baru saja melewati langit pagi yang tenang di perkampungan Mengkuang. Terbangnya teramatlah rendah, boleh kata lebih kurang 40 meter dari paras bumi. Menurut si Talhah yang obses dengan kapal terbang semenjak kecilnya (skrg bawa lari kamera aku menunggu jika kapal terbang itu lintas lagi), jenis kapal terbang tersebut ialah F/A-18 Hornet. tak tahulah boleh percaya atau tak budak tu. Malaysia dahla ada 8 buah saja jet tu, apa benda dia nak buat dekat sini.... oh, tapi berdekatan Teluk Air Tawar memang ada lapangan latihan tentera udara. 

F/A 18Ds Hornet


Teringat, kecil-kecil dulu selalu la jugak perasan kapal terbang terbang rendah, berlatih agaknya... tapi rendah sungguh terbangnya tadi... bak kata Dihyah 'bihsiinnnggg'. Getus hatiku pula "patut saman ja depa ni, mengganggu ketenteraman awam sungguh, terkejut kot tadi. Kalau ada baby tengah lena, mesti jaga"

Namun, sejenak, ditamu pulak sekelumit rasa ngeri di sudut hati. Terbayang mereka di negara terancam perang dan keganasan. Kapal terbang yang melewati bukan sekadar lintasan latihan juruterbang muda, tetapi membawa bersama bahan bom dan letupan, pabila dilepaskan meragut nyawa dan keindahan. Mungkin nyawa yang hilang, atau mungkin yang tersayang dijemput pulang.

Bagaimana agaknya, hidup saban hari dalam gelisah kekhuatiran tentang apa yang bakal melewati langit membawa bencana, dan apa yang bakal melata di bumi membawa binasa. 

Pagi ini juga cuba membelek link-link yg ditweet berkaitan Palestine... baru bberapa link sudah kelesuan.. Isu yang seolah tidak berkesudahan, sebenarnya membuat aku terfikir akan ketabahan, teringat suatu perjumpaan yg pernah diikuti dengan Socialist Alternative semasa di Melbourne.. tentang seorang pakcik dari Palestine yg menyatakan betapa rasa harap itu terkadangnya dilupakan. bukan tidak percaya pada janji tuhan... sungguh kelak akan tiba masanya Palestine jatuh kembali ke tangan kita, tetapi menurut pakcik itu, beliau sekadar merehatkan harapnya... kerana terlalu lama sudah... terlalu lama. Tuhan, kentalnya jiwa mereka...

Sungguh, dan manusia itu hidup dengan rasa harap. pada Tuhanya, untuk masa depanya. terkadang bila apa yg cita lambat tiba, hati seolah berkata... mungkin sama sekali bukan milik kita. Namun masa depan itu kerja tuhan... Jika sudah rezeki, apa yang dinanti... insyaAllah akan termiliki. jika terlalu letih, rehatkanlah harap itu dengan rasa percaya. ;)

'menghitung hariiiii...detik demi detik...' 




p/s: budak Talhah tu kata, boleh jadi F15-eagle. macam logik sikitla kalau yang tu. ka dak?  wo hen bu zhi dao le!

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...
