I was tagged by sis Ruby Ahmad, who was very thoughtful enough to include me in to continue this auspicious and philanthropic act on helping Bro Idham in his "quest" to donate to the Darul Izzah (House of Nobility) Orphanage.
Honestly, I am not very sure how this meme could assist in the donation but I am participating it, nonetheless as a pure act of conscience in the name of helping the less fortunate. As this is Brother Idham's initiative, I hope his " Tagged for Charity" campaign will soon be materialized, inshallah (by God's willing).

Hi Manal dear,
Thank you so much for giving time and loving energy to take part in this meme. Such a sport you are.
I love your no 1 answer especially on the second part. If everyone embraced this it would be easier for us to wander around UK now...but not now, not with the latest nasty incidents kan? Sigh.
Your answers in general describes you as a lovely practical person, honest and a person who makes effort to make things better as you go through life. The last bit (making things better...), shows you do care and you are sensitive about other people's feel
ings.
No 27, aduh! Touching nya I rasa. You are so sweet there. Tq again dear.
Salam Kak Ruby,
It's really my pleasure at your humble disposal!
Yeah, if only they would understand that their emotional acts are causing more harm than good to everybody. BUT, I will never forget this one incident not far from my old flat in london when i slipped and fell on my knees on the slippery road one winter morning as the traffic light was turning green. As I was struggling to get up as fast as I could, a car was proceeding towards me at an average speed. An english lady saw this and she quickly scurried onto the road in front of me to stop the driver at that instant. I may still actually be able to save my own life despite taking a certain desperate measures at the expense of my bruised knee and elbow but had she not stopped the car, i may not be able to save my other belongings like my groceries and few other valuables in my carrier bag that were scattered on the road. God is great and his Mercies are well spread to all human beings.
Oh-oh...i am being scrutinized...but no worries...Coming from you, it is very encouraging indeed! So they say, with every little helps.
That, u r so deserving more than that wee bit of an honest compliment!
dear,
do leave a message at idham's comment box to let him know that you have done this meme...
Kak AZ,
I have done that already. It's only a matter of time before he will include my link into the tagged list.
Thanks for your concern!
Manal,
You are a very special human being. Too wonderful for words.
dear hi&lo ,
My sincerest gratitudes for such an overwhelming acknowledgement. Dunno really whether they wud describe me well but i take ur words if it's nothing but what ur heart says.
Everyone is made special for someone or for a mass of people. And so do u. Your distinctive presence with your wise and kind words leaves a certain remarkable impact to many of us who r fortunate enuf to be bloghopped and commented by u.
Now i must retreat into my hermit shell for a while to recover from your flattery....
manal,
just wondering.. what's your definition of typical malay guys? :)
Ryzah ,
That a malay or any guy who sticks to his traditional backgrounds too much and his typical society norms/upbringing. And he desires that we be like how and what he wants us to be, moulding us into for eg, his mum or like any typical girl of his society, demure and what nots. In addition to all of the above, some buruk malay guys yg perasan macho and macam bagus and just layan petit, putih-kuning muka cina type of girls really adds to my irks on them. (bagus la kan pilihan diorg sesowaiiii sgt, sepadan).
Good thing, many malay guys evolve with age and they show more appreciations for women in terms of her intellectuality and her very own personality besides the physique (this is subjective, some suka kecik2, ade yg suka voluptious and curvy, ade yg suka lagi tinggi, and mcm2 lagi la).
It's not that i totally reject any malay guy suitor (apparently, the malay(mongrels) admirers are increasing in number) , i am just glad i didnt marry one earlier like 10 years ago or something. It gave me ample time to "evolve" myself to better in so many aspects and contexts of the man-woman games whilst still be proud of myself in the truest of essence. I guess, pride and prejudice do exist in many kind of ways, shapes and forms.
Well said, Manal with the exception on.... woit, don't la 'kutuk' Malay guys - I'm one of them you know... Hahhhaaahaha..
Salam Abdun ,
Tak...saya suka la jejaka melayu mongrel ini.....saya juga jumpa banyak melayu indonesia (cowok2) yang elok rupanya....
