IV. Kekasihku Lebih Usia Sikit

Hari ini, saya nak berbincang dilema yang melanda kepala otak saya ni ha. Tajok kat atas tu memang panassszzz! Hahaha!

Today i posted a FB status - what if a younger guy dates an elder woman. Fuh! Macam hujan komen mai. But gladly, banyak yang komen membina. Experience sendiri pon ada. Well, kawan2 saya banyak in range of 25 and above. So, leh pakai gak la komen2 diorang ni.

Since working as a barista, there are so many couples with young guy paired up with fine, a lil aged ladies. To me, it was never an issue, but since i was brought up dalam famili melayu yang penoh adat istiadat, kadang2 orang bercakap di belakang.

Who cares?

Saya sendiri tak pernah lagi berchenta dengan an older lady. Tak tahu pula about you guys out there. Age is just a number. If i came across with dat kinda path, i will surely enjoy my journey!

So, whats are the chances?

I prefer a mature lady as a companion. Dont u agree? Senang. Kalau saya bizi kerja ke, main bola ke, she would understand. As long as saya adil with her (bukan kerja sampai abandon her, ok?). Tapi, kebanyakkannye nak spend tym 24/7. Nak manje2 all the tym. Kalau x layan, merajok. Once in awhile, yeah. Most of the tym? I dont think so. Older kekasih doesnt mean dat they are more mature, but the chances of em being more mature is there.

The downside?

Alamak! Kalau nak difikirkan, family will always come first in thought. Bolehke diorang accept? If they do, what about my friends? Work colleagues? Mentua? Aiyo! Adik and abang ipar? Kalau panjang jodoh, kena kahwin. What if her age risk the chances of having kids? And the biggest Q - what if im not as matured as i think i am? Hahaha! Banyak pikir mender2 remeh kan saya neh?

Apa lagi?

Saya rasa age is just a number. Nothing more than that. If u prefered a person just because he/she is older/younger than you, its just your choice. Apa yang saya rasa every1 need is just some1 that makes you complete. And when that one person arrived, age will simply is not a concern.

Good luck boys and girls!

III. Super Barista

Hye all! Hari ini saya ingin berkongsi tentang pengalaman saya menjadi barista terjon selama 2 minggu. Best oo! Kepada yang ingin berkira2 untuk menjadikan kerjaya ini sebagai part time job - sila lah. Sangat berbaloi.

Asal ek?

Well, kerje sebagai barista memerlukan saya untuk fasih berbahasa Inggeris dan Melayu [kalau leh speaking chinese lagi sempoi]. So, sinilah we can try to sharpen our communication skills, which is very essential later on in our working life. So hari2 kene speaking. Janganla kalo dia cakap melayu, kita tibai Bahasa Inggeris, nampak cam merendahkan customer and vice versa. Apa² pon, bahasa Melayu itu bahasa kebangsaan, cuma kebanyakkan barista work ni dalam kedai kopi omputeh je. hihihi.

Apa lagi yang ada?

Kita boleh cuba banyak jenis kopi!! seriously. banyak gile yang kita leh terai. Segala jenis cino ada. segala jenis mocha ada. minum la sampai taleh tidoq malam. And yes, sebenaqnya semua ni kopi saja. kalo tambah susu, jadi kopi susu dalam bahasa kita, depa tukar jadi Latte. Nampak mahal sket. hahaha! the American trend of having coffee in the morning and late afternoon seems to becoming a trend back here too. So, I hope that my day will come when I really want a cup of nice brewed coffee in the morning bila saya bangun tido. Classic executive.

Itu je ke?

Working as a barista helps you to gain more confidence. When you encounter customers, they can be sometime annoying, but if you handle em properly, the satisfaction of serving em could be very much rewarding. It helps to build up kesabaran kita [sabar itu separuh dari iman] as customer always right. Fuhh! statement. walaupun kadang2 terbakar juga dengan perangai yang pelbagai, tapi professional worker do not let their emotions in their way. This will help you to become more mature in handling both customers and iye! kawan² sekerje!

Bolehke nak sara Blackberry saya?

hahahaha! boleh je. rata2 gaji barista ni [part time macam saya] RM4.50 sejam, which is higher than most off normal restaurant [mcd Rm3.50 kot. baskin Rm3.00 je]. Kerje banyak hours, banyak la payment dia. Di sini lah motto usaha tangga kejayaan itu mai. But if you wanna do it as a full timer, they will pay you up to the maximum of 1.7k for assistant manager or more and even more for a store manager [saya tidak tahu, sebab saya suka serve customer dari ngadap boss ><] Ada tips tak?

Adaaaaa! Senyum selalu, be honest, be yourself, cheerful and vibrant. Insyaallah, murah rezeki. kawan pon leh dapat banyak. Work as hard as you can coz when the paychecks coming, you want to smile and receive it. =)

Kerje lah sekuat²nya seperti kita hidup seribu tahun lagi, dan beramalah secukupnya seperti esok kita nak pergi.

Peace Out!!

II. Sweet Couple

Hari ini saya kerja closing. Saya dengan manager saje kerje, sebab hari ni monday, forcasted low sales. But now, the trend of having coffee and a good conversation after work is growing. So, macam bz gak la tudei.

Semenjak cuti sekolah ni, banyak betul kapel2 yg saya tengok. Kapel budak2 shuffle, kapel budak2 hip hop, kapel budak2 club, kapel budak2 rempit dan my faveret - kapel budak2 hingusan.

Dont get me wrong.

Saya pon pernah berchenta, banyak kali plak tu. Hahaha! And saya will always be in a relation ship, just recently baru merasa single life. So, slalu saya diobserve by others and now im in their shoes.

Waktu kapel2 dulu, pegang2 tangan, pinggang, bahu la. Turun escalator saya suka bila gf saya pelok saya dari belakang, rasa cam mesra. Tapi bila saya lak tengok orang lain buat camtu, rasa jealous pon ada. LOL. But the different is, saya rasa segan jugak bila ada auntie2 or uncles2 tengok2. So in that moment, saya usually will just hold hands or loosen my grip.

Tapi nowdays is different. Semua daring2. From their apparel down to their attitude. And sebab banyak sangat dah macam tuh, everything seems to be so normal. Once in awhile, we will stop and stare. But most of the time, we will just say - "hey, look. What a sweet couple".

But, hey, its a new era and maybe things look a lil different, but saya betul2 berharap supaya kita x luper asal usul kita. Being modern and all, doesnt mean that we need to copy others and forsaken what we are for the last hundred of years. Kan?

For those who are in a relation ship, i wish em all the best. For those yang baru2 nak berkapel, pandai2 la exploring your partner. This post wasnt meant to judge any of u out there. Its just an observation from me who had been there and done almost all of that.

Cherish what you have, because one day it will be gone.

Tribute to my parents. Ayah and Ma, 28 years of love and still going strong.

I. Tudung Toncet

This is actually first tym saya tulih blog blog ni. Rasa cam best lak baca others tulih punya blog. Kawan saya dulu ada blog. Tiap2 hari di buke and seronok bila dapat followers baru. Tak paham sebenarnye. Saya ni blogging sebab rasa leh share banyak bende dengan ramai orang. Tak ramai followers pon x pe. Janji saya tulih apa saya rasa.

Quickguide : Barista at work, approachable and a person in the making [x siap lagi ni].

Hari2 pergi kerje, macam2 kitorang sembang dekat kedai kopi. Itu, ini. Dari saya biar je mati cenggitu, baik lah saya share ng korang sume.

Kejer kedai kopi ni, hari2 leh tengok orang. Cun, x cun, hensem, x hensem, semua ada. sexy, x sexy, x cukup sexy, sexy maut dan pelbagai lagi kelas sexy. Macam2 pesen, saya jumpe. Some wear it real shorts, some wear it real tights, and ada yang pakai langsir ropol pegi shopping mall. Tapi yang paling saya minat observe now is - Tudung Syria [I tatau apa nama dia, so I googled it and most of the pictures that shows the same Hijab is listed under Tudung Ala² Syria].

Tapi saya call it Tudung Toncet sempena P.Ramlee punya dialog, jin mata toncet.

Ramai oo orang pakai. Tua, muda sumer ada. Cantik ada, kurang cantik ada, cantik sikit dari buruk pon ada jugak. Tapi most of em wore it with real style and blings.

Alamak.

Nak jadi kes, I was on the escalator and ada satu gerup bebudak perempuan stylo yang bertudung syria ni. They were 4 of em, and I was in a hurry [tengah kerje]. All of em were wearing these Syria Hijabs. Saya kalut2 nak naik atas, squeezing my way thru, tapi terbump into 1 of the toncet. The girl pusing nak tengok apa jadi, but instead caused chain reaction bila toncet dia kena her friend and all the toncets were all over the escalator. Saya macam malu and said sorry dan teruih cabot lari [with my uniform and all on - Bah!]

I respect what other thinks bout their fashion ideas and I kinda lyk the versatile that I can have in my daily life at the mall, but yeah, Tudung Toncet is the fashion that carries a story with it.

Saya x pandai berfesyen2 ni, so, saya hanya wears anything that I think that is comfortable for me. Best gak jadi pompuan ni, banyak betul fesyen yang diorang ada. While laki, slua jeans, t-shirts and sneakers. Siap. Jom dating?
