Main Motor ke Main Priority?

Dah masuk tahun 2026 ni, mata saya masih tak lepas memandang skrin telefon setiap kali nampak gambar Ducati Hypermotard V2 yang baru. Ada sesuatu tentang 'hooligan bike' ni yang buatkan jiwa rider saya meronta-ronta. Rekaan minimalis, posisi duduk yang tegak, dan bunyi enjin V-Twin Ducati... memang 'racun' yang cukup kuat.

Tapi itulah, bila duduk bertenang kejap sambil tengok slip gaji dan komitmen rumah tangga, terus rasa macam kena simbah air sejuk kat muka. Hari-hari berulang-alik kerja, motosikal bukan sekadar gaya, tapi ia adalah 'tools' untuk cari rezeki. Membayangkan ansuran bulanan Hypermotard V2 dengan kos servis Ducati, buatkan saya berfikir dua tiga kali.

"Masa muda ni lah nak merasa. Nanti dah tua badan pula tak larat." — Saifudin

Kata-kata Saifudin tu ada benarnya. Tapi pada fasa hidup sekarang, prioriti saya dah berubah. Keluarga, simpanan, dan komitmen sedia ada lebih penting. Lagipun, motor yang saya ada sekarang masih lagi setia berkhidmat menempuh kesesakan di Tambak setiap pagi. Hypermotard mungkin boleh bagi kepuasan hujung minggu, tapi realitinya, 'priority isn't there yet'.

Hypermotard ni aku simpan dulu kat dalam satu "box" otak aku ni. Janji motor yang ada sekarang masih steady bawa pergi kerja cari rezeki. Mana tahu hujung tahun 2026 ada rezeki terpijak? Amin!

The Evolving Jester

He used to be a playful person — always joking around, never taking things too seriously. He'd worn his playfulness like a vibrant cloak, convinced it was a disguise, a mask to shield the real, more serious self beneath.

The thing about being a playful character is you can hurt others with your words unintentionally. He'd learned this the hard way, his careless jabs often leaving unintended wounds. He'd been a talkative without thinking about his words, a whirlwind of opinions and observations, rarely considering the impact they might have on others.

But beneath the surface, a quiet unease simmered. Was this playful persona truly him, or was it a carefully crafted role he played to navigate the world?

Then, a slow awakening began. He realized the truth: his playfulness wasn't a disguise; it was the vibrant hue that colored his very essence.

This newfound self-acceptance, however, wasn't without its adjustments; he started to shape his character. The shift was subtle at first, a tightening of the reins, a newfound awareness of the weight of his words. The room, once filled with his boisterous commentary, began to quiet. He started to listen more, to observe, to weigh each sentence before it tumbled from his lips. The playful jabs, once so effortless, now felt sharp, almost cruel. He learned to choose his battles, to let some things go unsaid.

Now, silence was his companion. He found himself drawn to quiet corners, the hum of the city fading into a distant lullaby. Words, when they did come, carried the weight of meaning, each one carefully chosen, a precious stone polished to a perfect gleam. The room, once filled with the echoes of his laughter, now held a different kind of energy – a quiet intensity, a sense of deep listening, a profound respect for the power of the spoken word.

This is a short story about me.

Aishah dan motosikal

Aku baru pulang dari tempat kerja dalam jam 12 tengahari tadi. Seperti biasa, Aishah menerpa ke arahku menyambut kepulanganku. Kali ni, aku pelawa dia untuk naik motor. 

Buat pertama kalinya dia terima pelawaanku. Takdelah jauh mana, dari pagar rumah sampai ke tempat parking je. 

Seronok betul dia dapat naik motor.

Hi semua, selamat ber-2024! Semoga kita semua terpelihara daripada seksaan kubur dan azab api neraka.

Masih lagi bernyawa

Assalamualaikum dan selamat sejahtera semua. Aku sebenarnya lupa akan kewujudan blog ni. Ahahaha

Disebabkan otak aku betul-betul kekeringan idea tidak tahu nak tulis apa, aku berhenti di sini sahajalah.

Alhamdulillah, masih lagi bernyawa. Diberi kesempatan untuk bertaubat.

Sekian, entri pertama untuk 2023.
