I came home from work today with a big plan to go for a movie & and to eat out with the family. LiL and the boys voted against it, and counter proposed for a Movie marathon at home and ordering home delivery bruger King for dinner. The idea sounds like a good one too...so I agreed. What a democratic family we have - perhaps more than can be said for the Boleh land!
Amirul got busy immediately setting up the screen and the projector complete with a set of home theatre speakers. Haziq brought down the air mattress! Luqman was getting comfortable with pillows and cushions. LiL made me a hot mug of tea. And we were ready!!
The first movie we watched was - I am
Next, we watched the TV3 Anugerah Juara Lagu. Back-dated, but with a feel of live telecast since we have not read about the results. Having our living room filled with Malaysian songs in its magical splendour was nostalgic! We love the ambience and a sense of being truly home. From start to finish, we were captivated and entertained. Verdict : Super show - and we fully agreed wth the judges decision.
Satu Bulletin Utama - Berbagai wajah menjelang pilihan Raya.
We took a break and ordered our burgers. While the boys were having their strecth, LiL and I decided to watch TV3 Bulletin Utama - Edisi Feb 14th. So, only a few hours after - we were watching the news almost live. With technology, even living abroad we can keep in-touch with what is going on back home. As expected - the headlines were about the General Election. I will write on the topic as my next entry! Watch this space.... ( In the mean while please respond to my Survey!)
Back to the big screen at home - our last movie for the night was 'Die Hard 4'. Wow - what a movie. Well acted, action packed, super visual effect and full of drama! Everyone loves it....we munched through our burger and fries without blinking.

Happiness is a moment created !
What's with all the above report of what we have done at home today. Surely it is a subject only interesting to the six of us....maybe, but that does not stop me from feeling proud of what we did today. hehehe
Well, I do believe in small cells of living. In my simple mind, this is the equation!
A happy individual makes a happy companion.
A happy family makes a happy neighbourhood.
A happy neighbourhood makes a happy society.
A happy society hopefully can multiply into a happy nation
which multiply further into a happy world.
I am trying to do my part - keeping our family as one unit, happy with what we have wherever we are, anytime. We break no laws, steal from no one, and think evil of no body. We want to believe, however naive it actually is, that everyone is born to be good.
Little pearls for today: Do-Be-Do!
Do = do happy things by yourself, or your own family.
Be = feel happy. Even if you have to fake it, keep faking happiness until you really feel happy.
Do = do more happy things with others. This is easier done if you are happy yourself!


Eh "I am Legion" or "I am Legend"? Ni film yang Will Smith berlakon tu ke? Yang zombie semua tu?
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree "Die Hard 4" memang best. Tak boleh nak tegaskan betapa best nye film tu.
Wah..kira nye next time kita orang sampai sana tak yah le pi wayang ye...tengok rumah abg arief je le yek. Lagi best kan... Boleh makan apa saje..
And I agree...buat isteri and anak-anak happy is vital to your health. Kalau kaum isteri tak happy, kami kaum isteri boleh buat hidup kaum suami susah! Tapi kalau kaum suami lepas tu cari lain..ish..susah le pulak yek!
Hahahah
Gambar yg paling tenang adalah Tuan Guru Nik Aziz...
ReplyDeletemarilah mari.... kita mengundi...

ReplyDeletesama2 happy la kan...bak kata orang - "think win-win!". tak kan nak syiok sendiri jer kan....hehehehe
i think a marriage, kena lah ada rasa security yang walau apa jua cabaran, jodoh biar berpanjangan...mesjid jgn runtuh...bahkan jadikan cabaran dan dugaan sebagai hiasan untuk memperkukuhkan mesjid...:)
I saw an entry in ur blog...then i saw it was deleted. good for u to have deleted that....Love and kindness prevailed kan.

Election... nak bukak TV pun dah tak berapa berkenan, berat sebelah.
Abang Idham,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to spend some quality time with family at home... I love doing that too, rather than eating in the restaurant with all the crazy crowd... :)
suria kelang....:-)
ReplyDeletei take that as a compliment, and thank you ...
setiap kita tak kira d mana dan siapa kita - we have admirable qualities. suria di kelang pun semestinya ....semoga mencapai segala impian di tahun ini - insyAAllah.
idham
silversarina...:-) semuanya happy...bila tenguk wayang mcm tu di rumah, boleh jerit2, gelak2, discuss satu2 scene tu...sama2 sendiri tanpa gangguan atau menggangu penonton lain. hehehe
ReplyDeleteand to lie down, be able to touch and feel the heart-beats of ur love ones while watching - oh those were special moments!
Bulletin Utama memang berat sebelah.
IDHAM
cat cat...:-) i believe in creating moments - special moments - at home. Biar hati kita suka duduk di rumah, dan terasa happiness itu di setiap ruang rumah.
ReplyDeleteso even when we are out or away - we miss home.
idham
Salam Abg Id...
ReplyDeleteThat moment was a surely a quality time spent!
I love your DoBeDo slogan...Sungguh betul and tepat!
Take care and stay well.
Bukan senang parents especially a father nak spend time dengan anak-anak. Biasanya selalu busy baca paper la.. or buat benda lain. I'm glad to see your happy family enjoyed the moment..
ReplyDeletePilihanraya ni.. kalau undi pos, nak buat kat mana ye? what's the procedure? Ke dah tutup?
Raden Galoh...:-)
ReplyDeleteJika kita tidak Do-Be-Do for ourselves and our family, siapa lagi??
Do good, Be Good, and Do more Good to more people.
Thank you for coming over.
idham
Neeza...:-)
ReplyDeleteSudah resam, hingga ada pepatah, "Kera di hutan disusukan - anak di rumah kelaparan"
Resamnya - we will do things out of our ordinary to please and make others happy - except those we love and those who love us dearly.
Resam ni lah yg saya cuba nak ubah...
Do happy things - B happy - and Do more happy things with people who love you first.
Undi Pos hanya untuk pelajar dan pegawai kerajaan di sebrang laut.
Kategori sperti Neeza dan suami tidak ada kemudahan mengundi pos.
:-)
idham

I am happy for you and your family, all the family members seems very happy, contented and very fortunate to have a father like you. A good provider and a loving father.
ReplyDeleteYou've been blessed with a loving wife and talented kids. Whom you can always share your joys and laughter, your triumph and disappointment. You have all the time to be with them as a parent and as a friend whom they can share their especial moments.
I am happy for you and at the same time I am envy with you, unlike you I have to choose not to be with them and cannot see them for a very long time just to give them a more secured future.
Just stay as good and loving provider as you are, savor every moment that you have with your family...
