kaca tv dan kaca cinema

bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

sudah lama x menulis..
*straight to the point sbb bateri sudah mahu habis*

KACA TV

bbrp bulan sudah, penulis dan teman2 muslimat terlibat utk shooting sebuah prog ala2 nona versi muslimah.
rasional penglibatan penulis dan teman2 muslimat adlh krn ia program yg targetnya muslimat..
maka, sebaik dimaklumkan, bersidanglah kami serumah dan teman2 utk menyiapkan props2, gotong royong bagai...

*charger dah psg, so no rush*

akhirnya tibalah hari shooting.. sesampainya para kru, deme menginspect latar tmpt.. tuan kameraman agk kurng berpuas hati lantas kami diminta menutup side2 kurng lawa utk kamera by kain... termasuklah di atas sebuah meja yg terdapat sebuah printer.. printer diangkat dan kain perlu diletakkan di atas meja.. tuan kameraman membantu proses tersebut, dan hamek kau! terkeluar 2 ekor lipas dr bwh printer menyusup laju. cess.. tuan kameraman agak terkejut (bahkan mungkin melatah)... begitu juga penulis, bukan sbb terkejut, tp sbb malu besar... haiyo... rasanya agak ketara emosi malu, tuan kameraman kata 'x pe, rilek bos.rilek..' walopn dia sbntr td terkezut dgn kemunculan lelipas td. utk cover baik punya, penulis cuba mengatakan dgn tenang 'summer ni mmg byk lipas'... jantung ibarat terhempas ke diaphragm, kulit muka menebal setebal tembok kremlin gitu, panas je rasa muka... dpn2 kru tv jugak lipas mahu keluar.. tp, itu lah antara peristiwa2 bersama ex-teman serumah yg akn bisa memecahkan perut hingga ke hari ini.. masalah lipas ini telah kami alami sejak awal2 kami pindah masuk ke rumah kami.. menurut tuan rumah, hal ini kerana penyewa2 sblm kami x membersihkan rumah dgn tuntas dan x simpan/discard mknn dgn elok... dah bertahun kami cuba get rid of them, dan usaha tersebut berterusan hingga k hari ini..

antara perkara lain yg menarik perhatian penulis adlh bendera palestin bersaiz A4 hand-made yg ditampal di dinding bilik kami diminta utk diturunkan.. bendera itu seketul duduknya kat dinding, mmg obvious.. (muffler palestin di kepala katil boleh dibiarkan sbb it's small).. isu sensitip katanya.. ia seakan memberitahu kita bhw for such issue, kena ada higher authority yg endorse... huu.. walopn isu2 palestin sudah byk kuar at tv, still isu ini masih belum di-masyarakat-kan betul2... so, they are still lots of work to be done supaya semua org comfortable with this issue, dan mmg boleh izzah/flaunt it di mana2 dan bila2..

so tibalah hari ia perlu on-air.. i was aware of it, tp penulis x gemar melihat muka sendiri di tv, dan x maklumkn pd ahli keluarga yg lain ttg siaran tersebut... alih2 ada plak sedara tepon suruh bukak tv channel skian2... nasib baik, bukak2 dah iklan dan nak habes.. hoyeah! at the same time, kat fb, ada bbrp akhawat yg menegur and congratulate the team.. hu.. izzahnya deme bila perihal DnT kuar TV... on a second thought, penulis merasakan it isn't just about me or my friends @ tv, deeper than that, it is DnT... so, pttnye penulis kenalah rse excited mcm akhawat lain juga sbb bukan muka penulis di situ sbnrnya, tp DnT tuh.. huuu..

KACA CINEMA

hasil gugling penulis, atenye, one of my fave author - inche mitch albom dan one of my fave director - inche steven spielberg (me love sci-fi!) share the same mentor/naqib/murabbi! bahkan, one of albom's book - 'have a little faith' is all about their mentor - inche robert lewis, a famous conservative rabbi.. tinggi sungguh skill murabbi beliau.. =.='

We H.E.A.R.T Ramy Essam

Assalamualaikum wrt.

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.
Let's make this quick & clean.

It is my dream to found a Malaysia-based radio station, in English and Islamic. :)
Because there're a lot of English/Arabic Islamic singers out there who sing good songs!
Hoyeah!
(Btw, can I be a the DJ? hu.. there's this one pakcik that I had good time talking with, and he said that I spoke to fast, that it was very good for radio station.. because DJs need to say a lot of things within limited time..)

And, this is another creative mind that I tabik-ed! (aaluted)
RAMY ESSAM. An Egyptian. A revolutioner. Anti-Mubarak.
(before him, I liked Tamer Hosny, an Egyptian singer. =.="' He sang catchy songs, and I don't understand most of the lyrics. But, during the tsaurah/revolution, from what I followed on the news; this very singer was pro-Mubarak. He was captured by the protesters and he cried 'Papa.. Papa..' referring to his Mubarak. And since then, I like him not.)

Here are Ramy Essam's songs.

1) RAMY ESSAM's signature song was 'Irhal' which was sang @ Tahrir Square, rated as the 3rd most influential song on history. (believe me)




2) This is one of his songs that has subs.



3) He sings for Syria also.



4) But, the one that I love most is this.. *screammmm!!!*



Subhanallah! There are too many bright minds out there. How great Allah is, that He gives such creativity to His slaves.. If His slaves' creativity awes us, then imagine how Allah's own creativity would awe us!!! :)

And, I must say, if I could choose where I was born, I wish I was an Egyptian. They are great ppl! Rasulullah saw said the best soldiers are Egyptian. That's why before liberating Al-Quds from the Crusaders, Saladin liberated Egypt so that he could included those Egyptians into his army and marched toward al-Quds. Ramy is not the first Egyptian that amaze me. There's a lot - Hassan al-Banna, Syed Qutb, Yusuf al-Qardhawi, Asma' Mahfouz (go google this girl.. she won the Sakharov's Prize!), you-name-it..

Above is what we call art/music.. Good music creates awareness and bad music creates ignorance..

Notakakigugel: atenye, kan best tajuk lagu seperti 'Revolusi di Muka Buku' (instead of Cinta Muka Buku) atau 'Cintaku Memang di Mata Pedang' (instead of  Cintaku bukan di atas kertas).. Barulah henshin! Hihihi.. kun rajulan! :)

You don't really get it, right?

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim. Allahumma bariklana fi Rajab wa Sya'ban, wa ballighna Ramadhan.

Mari menggatal dgn tulis di blog yg sudah lama tidak dituliskan. *gaya te-bersin krn allergic dgn habuk2 di lmn sesawang yg sgt bersawang / berhabuk*

Sudah berbulan-bulan terfikir utk membuang sesawang di laman sesawang yang satu ini, bahkan semenjak dpt tafsir surah Qalam dlm usrah berbulan-bulan dahulu. Oh!

Tema penulisan hari ini adalah spt tajuk di atas iaitu - You don't really get it, right?

Kejadian 1

Begini, pernah suatu masa purba dahulu kala, ada seorang kawan XX ini (mungkin sedang mood swing) ter-cakap kasar sama gua, walhal dia mmg terkenal dgn her composed, in-control charachter. Hu.. Wrong timing, krn gua pun iman lemah saat itu, lalu memang terasa.. Kalau jumpa, asik dok teringat je scene itu.. *tsk tsk.. haram x pemaap btoi.. ala2 I forgave, but I don't forget gituh..* Atenye, bbrp lama kemudian, sy lepak di tempat beliau ketika beliau dan temannya sedang main masak2. Temannya sedang dlm situasi annoyed / mood swing lalu dengan automatisnya, menjadi annoying kpd org2 sekeliling. Tp XX ni gila sabaq, layan saja.. Kalau lah sy pakai kasutnya (wearing her shoes), barangkali sudah berhenti main masak2 ka; baling sudip plastik kat org tu kah etc.. And an ilham hit me, 'ya Allah, sabaq gila XX ni.. Die x explode pn.. Maybe dia explode pd org yg die trust, di mana org tu akn forgive+forget.. Aku patut rasa honour-ed dia explode kat aku dolu2'. Dan, sy rasa, kita sebenarnya patut appreciate bila org mengamuk/explode etc kat kita, sbb die trust kita, sbb kita yakin 'he/she would accept us as we are'.. Mcm gaduh dgn adik2 dulu, berdarah-darah, calar-balar; tapi lepas tu boleh makan aiskrim sama-sama.. Oh! Oh! :)

Kejadian 2

Pernah suatu masa purba dahulu kala, ummi mengandungkan adik kami yg keberapa entah (Kejadian mendapat adik bg keluarga kami adalah a bi-annual event). Mcm kasihan ummi uruskan kami sorang2 sbb abi pulang lewat.. Kalau nk tlg, ummi suruh buat homework / tidur awal.. Hari itu, mmg sy agak geram dgn abi, sbb abi pulang sgt lewat, hingga kami semua dah masuk bilik tidur, beliau x pulang2 lagi.. Ummi gaya 'chill' ja, tp sy sendiri yg pendam perasaan kat abi nih... X dak org boleh tlg ummi.. Dan di tgh mlm, mungkin jam 12am, atau 1am, atau 2am; sy pn x pasti; sy terjaga dan dgr kelentang-kelentung di dapur.. Sy intai, rupanya abi tgh basuh pinggan, dgn masih pakai baju kerja x tukar2, lengan baju lipat ke paras siku.. Hu.. Gila bergaya abi pd saat itu! Ngee~ :) Kerana itu lah kot, ummi syg abi, sampai dia pernah main2 kata, kalau abi kawen lg satu, ummi akan patahkan kaki abi yg tempang itu (abi tempang slps kemalangan teruk dilanggar lori dolu2)..  Jd, sy agk yakin, walaupun abi agak berperilaku spt blur2/buat donoh, x ambil tahu etc; he actually does in a way only Allah+he know..

Jd kesimpulannya, adlh, kita (lebih tepat S.A.Y.A) selalu get the wrong msg / suuz zhon / buruk sangka.. A mood explosion may not be out of hatred, but is a gesture of trust. And, silence may not be out of ignorance, but out of suprising/hidden actions.. Mcm kita dgn Allah, kot2 Allah kasi ujian, kita rasa Allah x syg dah, tp Dia sbnrnye tgh trust kita to excel in that test.. Atau kita rasa Allah ni gila senyap x jawab2 doa kita ye, tp He's preparing suprises for us.. Jadi, ayuh berusaha jd org yg bila dibentangkn dgn situasi2 sebegini, kita can catch the wisdom behind them, instead of suuz zhon and again, don't really get it right.. :)

Haiyo.. Hidup ini indah kalau kita meng-indah-kan zhon-zhon kita ini.. Ngee~

Allahu'alam...
