Yasmin Ahmad Perginya Seorang Insan Istimewa

Tahun ini kita banyak dikejutkan dengan pemergian insan-insan yang agak terkenal dalam usia awal 50-an.Saya sendiri secara peribadi kehilangan ayah yang meninggal dalam usia 51 tahhun pada 12 April tahun ni. Juga dunia dikejutkan dengan Michael Jackson yang meninggal secara tiba-tiba akibat pengambilan dadah berlebihan.Raja Pop ini turut mengejutkan dunia apabila dia rupanya telah memeluk Islam dan pelbagai kontroversi yang turut mengiringi pemergiannya.
Baru-baru ini juga Yasmin Ahmad meninggal dunia akibat serangan strok, setelah pembedahan yang dijalankan untuk membuang ketulan darah beku di otaknya gagal.

Ternyata saya secara peribadi menerima banyak kejutan dari persekitaran. Lumrah alam, yang hidup pasti akan pergi. Berkisar mengenai Yasmin Ahmad.Hmmm kenapa memilih untuk menulis mengenainya? Saya sendiri kurang pasti, tapi ternyata dia salah seorang pengarah yang dekat karya nya dengan jiwa aku.Sebenarnya terlalu sedikit yang saya tahu mengenai peribadinya. Walaupun pelbagai kontroversi melanda dirinya baik peribadi mahupun karya-karyanya dia tetap cekal memperjuangkan idealoginya yang cukup unik.

Karya-karya Yasmin Ahmad yang sering kita tatap antaranya iklan keluaran petronas, sering meruntun hati kita.Ringkas, padat dengan mesej kasih sayang, perpaduan dan lain-lain nilai positif mengambarkan jiwanya. Begitu juga dengan karya-karya nya seperti Sepet,Gubra, Rabun , Talentime , Muksin dan lain-lain. Memang terdapat kritikan terhadap filem-filem nya yang agak sensitif bagi kita rakyat Malaysia yang kebanyakkan masih berfikiran konservatif. Tapi saya menonton filem-filem nya dengan fikiran terbuka dan saya mengerti apa yang ingin disampaikan oleh Yasmin Ahmad yg ternyata cukup kreatif menyelitkan unsur-unsur Islam dan tolak ansur sesama manusia, tanpa mengira agama atau bangsa.

Yasmin Ahmad seorang wanita yang berani mempertaruhkan idea dan pendapat melalui karya-karyanya.Secara peribadi saya sebenarnya amat mengagumi beliau seperti juga rakyat Malaysia yang lain. Pemergiannya umpama hilangnya sebutir bintang di persada seni kita. Diharapkan idea-ideanya bakal menjadi inspirasi buat golongan muda dan rakyat Malaysia keseluruhannya.

Semoga Allah mencucuri rahmat buat beliau dan Al-Fatihah buat Yasmin Ahmad.

Harry Potter and the half blood prince

Harry Potter really grown up just like seeing my little sister slowly grown up in front of me.Believe or not I'm not interested to read any of Harry Potter book..since the 1st release up to know.Too much fiction or maybe the story line doesn't suite me I guess.
Only my sis and her beloved cousin really crazy on this Harry Potter story. Tried to watch the story by bought the DVD but still me is still me, only kids (like my sis and her cousin) dying to watch it over and over again.Me only end up with boring face.

Finally today I trapped with no more kids with me , but the two teenagers really eager to watch Harry Potter.Surprisingly these teenagers usually wake up late on Sunday..had amazed me by waking so early just to watch Harry Potter today at the nearest cinema.

Make me line up for almost an hour just to buy 3 tickets for us (including me with the boring face).These two teenagers seem to be extremely excite. Planning to spend only RM9 each ticket ,unfortunately the movie classified as blockbuster for this weekend.Finally RM12 per ticket.I'm shocked , then I saw the blockbuster stated at the tickets.Ok fine...only for today.

Then the two teenagers really enjoyed the movie so much,and they're specifically can identified who is who, which I notice most of the actor been in Hogwarts since the 1st year with Harry Potter and friends.Me not too sure,only can memorize a bit.

What can I say this movie really grown up with the group of actor(including the extras).So do to my little sis and my cousin. Making me feeling a bit old today..

The climb in my life...............

I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming but
There's a voice inside my head sayin,
You'll never reach it,
Every step I'm taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing,
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb (yeah)

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb (yeah yeah ea ea)

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It's all about
It's all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

Whoa a oh oh

Why i'm posting the lyrics? Coz I like the song.Very simple and straight forward.
Last time I went out and watched Hannah Montana instead watching Transformer 2.Actually me and my little sis planning to watch Transformer 2 on that day but unfortunately no are no tickets left for us.So, since we already in the queue for almost 30minutes I decided to pick Hannah Montana which is one of my nightmares to watch the kid's idol movie~Miley Cyrus aka Hannah Montana.Seriously I'm not her fan at all.

But suddenly everything change when I started to watch it and slowly to enjoy the simple story line about a teenager dream to be a singer, and she achieved it.But her dad want her becoming a nice and sweet country girl compare to glamorous teenage singer.

In this movie had include some of the songs of Hannah Montana..her song quite enjoyable and not too childish.I started to enjoy the song together with story. I prefer 'the climb' coz it more on me and I bet most to the most of the people around will feel the same.

In life we need to climb..there's no easy way to get up to the top.Whether you like it or not u need to climb up, and finally when you reach the top you will really feel how happy after you can see the beautiful view around which you never ever imagine before.

Similar to my life..a lot of climb i need to go through. Sometime I felt wanna give up. But I need to fight all the negative things in my mind and start to climb up. When I feeling down, at least when I'm listening to this song...I'm not sooo down.I start to realize not only me facing the difficulty but also other people too.Sometime they facing more harder than mine but still they climb the mountain without no doubt.

So why should feeling down before trying to climb the mountain. I should be strong and dare to take the risk and challenges..
