Kasih Alia

Kononnya nak tulis review pasal drama slot Akasia ni la, but sure I'll end up merepek je kat sini. Anyways, here we goes.

Drama air mata ni totally bertemakan kekeluargaan. So, elemen kasih sayang, cinta memang banyak diterapkan dalam cerita ni. Sebagai konflik, there were a few sub stories shown such as sindiket-sindiket jenayah sekarang ;- culik, jual, bunuh kanak-kanak, dan merompak orang yang nak tolong baiki kereta kat tepi jalan.

Tak dinafikan, actually this drama memang membuka mata orang ramai about those syndicates. A lot of news reported on televisions nowadays are about missing children. And those pity children have never been found. Bak drama ni lah, maybe ada yang kena jual hidup-hidup kepada orang kaya yang tiada anak, or maybe ada yang dibunuh dan organ mereka diambil dan dijual kepada black market untuk menyelamatkan mereka yang sakit organ dalaman di hospital or even dijadikan pengemis jalanan. Sindiket-sindiket ini tumbuh bagaikan cendawan. Jika hari ni satu tertumpas di tangan polis, esok muncul pula kumpulan yang baru. Yang menjadi mangsa, budak-budak dan keluarga malang ni.

Namun, kanak-kanak dalam drama ni terjebak apabila mereka sengaja ditinggalkan ibu tiri bagi membalas dendam terhadap madu nya yang sudahpun meninggal dunia. Then, after realizing that they were left by their step mother at the market, they were cheated by a man of the syndicate, telling that he would send them home. These children, Kasih and Qabil were separated as being sold to two different syndicate ;- Kasih, to sindiket mengemis, and Qabil, to sindiket pemerdagangan manusia. Fortunately, every cloud has a silver lining. Kasih berjaya melarikan diri dan berjumpa dengan mama dan papa baru, while Qabil was bought by seorang lelaki budiman yang ingin menyelamatkan kanak-kanak malang ini. They both were then raised to be a good person.

Syawal 2011 ~ as 'anak dara'

This year's Syawal has been awesome. Tanggal 1 Syawal jatuh pada 30hb Ogos mengikut kalendar Cina. That means a day before the national independence day. The celebration was superb with riang ketawa sanak-saudara dan rakan-rakan.

Outfit

Today is 8th Syawal. Aku pakai baju kurung hari-hari dari 1st syawal till 5th Syawal. Then, on the 6th, I went out to a mall, so I skipped wearing the traditional costume. On the 7th, aku pakai balik baju kurung sebab ade 'convoy raya'. Nak dijadikan cerita, baju sedondon yang sepatutnya dipakai oleh setiap family member on 1st Syawal tak siap. Tu lah orang kata 'baju orang lain siap, baju anak tukang jahit sendiri tak siap...'. Jadi tahun ni, gambar family berwarna-warni la. Baju yang ku pakai memang baju baru, cuma tak sedondon je. Talking about baju raya, aku survey warna baju raya, and the colour of the year yang aku tengok dalam tv dan sekitar persekitaran is 'hijau pucuk pisang'. Ramai orang menggayakan baju melayu dan baju kurung berwarna hijau tu. Even my real baju sedondon tu pon memang warna tu. Besides baju kurung, kaftan is a new choice in fashion nowadays. Kaftan yang digayakan lengkap dengan labuci or manik yang berwarna-warni. Fesyen kaftan ni ala-ala jubah gaya moden la, sebab potongan nye yang longgar dan labuh. It was nice to see various outfits during raya, rasa meriah pandang baju orang cantik-cantik. Secara tak langsung, nampak la muda-mudi sekarang prefer to be feminin during raya visitations, x de la nak pakai shirts and jeans sangat kan... Fabric wise, the choice is more to cotton, either Japanese or English. Cotton is easy to wear especially for children sebab kurang panas, so if nak beraya dari rumah ke rumah pon, pengguna would still be comfortable along the day.

Cuisines

Lemang, lontong, kuah lodeh, ketupat, kuih raya ;- almond london, semperit, bangkit, chocolate chip, rendang, laksa, mi sup, mi kari, bak kata Astro "Macam-macam Ada...". Talking about delicacies ni, memang tak kan habis sampai bila-bila. Kalau nama nya raya, sure la kena bertandang dari rumah ke rumah. Same goes to my tummy too, it has been filled with various menu. Lucky that I wore baju kurung, so tak da lah nampak buncit sangat, kan... BUT, I don't eat kuih raya pon, if before I was crazy for almond london, but now, none of those cookies I barely ate. Tak tau kenapa tekak macam not mengidam of them pon. Air? Carbonated, cordial, ribena, ribena celup, all I drank. Sampai kembung, masuk toilet. Ha, after all, I'm so so grateful that I still have the chance to taste all these foods, merasai nikmat yang Allah berikan, rezeki makanan yang tak putus, Alhamdulillah. It teaches me to not wasting the food, and eat only what your tummy want to eat, not your desire. Remember those in Somalia.

Visitation

Melawat sanak saudara sudah menjadi kewajipan ketika berhari raya. Macam habis satu daerah dirayau untuk bertandang. Kalau dulu, masa Atok kuat lagi, ha, entah rumah sedara jauh mana entah aku lawat. Nanti Atok cakap la " ni uwan ko ni, sedara atok, belah .... moyang kau ngan kakak uwan ni sedara... bla bla... Habis raya, bukan aku ingat pon, raya setahun sekali, pergi lawat macam-macam rumah pon sekali je la. But for this year, since Atok pon x sekuat mana, so, we just visited the close ones. The ones who I know at least. Alhamdulillah... I hope even in the future, I could still go and visit them, hope they would recognize me as cucu Atok. If not, haih... tak berkembang la nampak nya network relatives aku, kan... Rumah wan teh, wan alang, mak long piah, mak enon, wan padang, wan lereng bukit, wan kg solok? macam-macam gelaran sudah aku berikan untuk aku senang mengingati mereka kelak. wan belakang dan wan kfc? wan belakang tu rumah dia kat belakang rumah wan aku. Wan kfc, wan yang beli KFC bucket masa kitorang datang beraya rumah dia. Oh, wan/uwan tu nenek la.

Iklan Raya KFC (2011) Malaysia



This advertisement is the best among other raya advertisement on TV. It completely shows the real 'ragam' of commoners at 'kampung' during raya. It reminds me of a relationship between a grandfather and his mischievous grandchildren. The setting is perfect, with a real 'rumah kampung limas' and 'ayam kampung'. Haha.

Aku teringat jika dahulu, ada sebuah reban ayam di sebelah rumah kampungku. Suasana desa memang begitu terasa dengan kokokan ayam-ayam. Namun di saat sepupu-sepupu ku di sekolah rendah, kenakalan mereka kadang-kadang memang tak dapat dibendung. Habis semua ayam-ayam dikejar dan dipicit. Suasana tersebut lebih kurang seperti yang digambarkan dalam iklan raya ini. Suasana desa yang meriah menjelang raya dan ragam anak cucu yang menggelikan hati memang cukup mendamaikan memori-memori ketika usia kecil dahulu.
