Kisah AKU n Sambutan Maulidur Rasul 2023 @ Bandar Sungai Buaya

Assalamualaikum,

Malam ni suka aku nak berkongsi pengalaman kami sekeluarga join sambutan Maulidur Rasul di Bandar Sungai Buaya ni. 

Hari Khamis, tanggal 28 September 2023, umat Islam di Malaysia menyambut Maulidur Rasul bagi meraikan hari kelahiran baginda Rasulullah SAW. Walaupun ada perbezaan pendapat, tapi sambutan ni tak salah kita raikan untuk menyatakan rasa cinta dan sayang kepada junjungan besar kepada Nabi Muhammad SAW..:-)

Walaupun aku quite mengantuk jugak since tengok Newcastle lawan City pagi tadi (yeeha, the Magpies menang dan akan menentang MU in the 4th Round), seawal jam 7.30 kami dah bergerak ke venue program yang terletak dihadapan SMK Bandar Sungai Buaya. Sempat pulak budak-budak ni berposing sambil menunggu bapaknya start motor..:-p

Selfie dulu atas motor. Huhu

Berkumpul dikhemah nombor 3 iaitu team kariah Surau An-Nur Presint 11 Mawarsari.

Event dimulakan dengan ucapan dari Pengerusi Persatuan Penduduk BSB, Dato' Rusly dan juga taklimat keselamatan dari wakil JPAM. Ni time tengah susun baris untuk memulakan sesi perarakan sepanjang 1.5km.

Surau An-Nur dengan warna tema biru tua. Semuanya segak dan cantik belaka. 

Perarakan bermula sekitar jam 8 pagi. Teringat zaman sekolah dulu, camni lah gayanya. Berarak sambil berselawat beramai-ramai keatas junjungan besar Nabi Muhammad S.A.W. 

Semua pantang nampak kamera..:-p

Habis berarak dalam jam 8.30 pagi. Bergambar kenangan bersama jiran-jiran Taman Mawarsari

Ada jamuan disediakan bagi peserta-peserta yang hadir memeriahkan majlis.

Dapatlah breakfast Nasi Lemak free, berserta pelbagai jenis minuman dan kuih-muih dari kaunter F&B yang ada. 

Aiskrim percuma pun ada untuk kanak-kanak..:-)

Majlis bersambung dengan ucapan Penghulu Mukim Serendah mewakili MPKK Hulu Selangor dan juga upacara penyampaian hadiah dan cenderahati kepada wakil-wakil 11 surau di Bandar Sungai Buaya dan Felda Sungai Buaya.

Persembahan qasidah dari anak-anak Maahad Tahfiz Darul Quran Felda Sungai Buaya.

Syok Iman tengok show. Terpaling depan tu..:-)

Ada budak dah mengamuk nak balik. 

Haa, okaylah. Jom-jom. Sekitar jam 11 pagi, kami sekeluarga beransur pulang untuk menamatkan aktiviti Maulidur Rasul kami hari ni.

Ketiduran. Penat sangat tu. Huhu

Yup, itu sahaja ceritanya. Esok ramai pulak colleagues' yang cuti, aku pulak WFH. Okay lah tu, ada dua je risk samada tak banyak kerja or melambak kerja sebab nak cover orang..:-p

P/S: Minggu ni Newcastle akan menerima kunjungan Burnley, let's extend our unbeaten run and clean-sheet for the fifth time.:-)

Kisah AKU n Program Gerak Rahmah: Jom Gerak Muhibbah 2023 @ Bandar Sungai Buaya

Assalamualaikum,

Sementara nak tunggu game Newcastle malam ni, elok aku update entri sekarang. Karang dah busy dengan kerja, langsung tak dapat nak update pulak. Baiklah, semalam aku dan family sempat menghadiri sebuah program komuniti anjuran KRT Presint 14 Taman Kasturisari

Asalnya takde plan pun nak pergi event ni. Aku seperti biasa jogging sekitar Mawarsari, while wife dan anak-anak terlebih dahulu ke Taman Rampaisari untuk riadah pagi. Cuma pagi tu aku extra sikit jogging sampai tapak event dihadapan SKBSB. Tu yang dapat idea untuk datang bawak family. So aku terus jogging balik rumah, ambil motor dan terus ke taman Rampaisari untuk pickup diorang.

Bergambar dihadapan banner event bersama the kiddos. Tu je lah style amik gambar Iman. Haha

Berjalan-jalan melawat booth pameran dari agensi-agensi kerajaan, KRT-KRT Bandar Sungai Buaya,  yang terlibat dalam menjayakan program ni. 

Ada jugak gerai-gerai yang menjual makanan dan minuman untuk pengunjung.

Pameran auto-show. Ada jugak beberapa acara lain seperti kayuhan Rahmah, pertandingan mewarna dan melukis, persembahan bakat, senamrobik dan sudah tentunya, Jualan Ehsan Rahmah yang sinonim dengan program ini.

Mobile unit KWSP jugak untuk sesiapa yang nak buat semakan or berminat nak tahu cara-cara untuk menambah saving KWSP.

Dressing je cam peserta, tapi tak join pun. Ni gerbang untuk orang yang join cycling hari tu. Huhu

Lama pulak nak menunggu VVIP ni. Relaks sekejap sambil menikmati aiskrim Malaysia. Memang puas hari makan time hari panas camni.

Lepak depan gate sekolah lama aku ni, SKBSB. Ada lah jugak cerita kat anak-anak zaman bapak diorang sekolah kat sini some 20 years ago..:-)

Haa, sampai pun orang-orang besar ni. Ingatkan sesat, maklumlah ni kan kawasan hulu. Hehe

Persembahan silat dari pelajar-pelajar SMKBSB. Teringat waktu Form 5 dulu kena paksa dengan pengetua masuk Silat Kuntau. Walaupun seminggu je, tapi perit woo time training. Sobs

Sebelum majlis dimulakan, hadirin diminta bersama-sama menyanyikan lagu Negaraku, lagu negeri Selangor dan juga bacaan Rukun Negara. Nostalgia beb, berapa lama aku tak buat benda-benda ni. Dulu ni lah rutin setiap hari Isnin kat sekolah. Dah tua rupanya aku ni. Huhu

Joget Malaysia, juga dari pelajar-pelajar SMKBSB. Hat ni takde kenangan sebab aku memang tak involve sangat bidang tari menari ni..:-p

Ucapan perasmian dari EXCO Kerajaan Negeri Selangor. Untuk pengetahuan, event ni merupakan buah fikiran dari Jabatan Perpaduan Negara dan Integrasi Nasional (JPNIN) yang bertanggungjawab merencana program KRT diseluruh negara. Bagi program di Bandar Sungai Buaya ni, ianya dianjurkan dengan kerjasama Persatuan Penduduk Bandar Sungai Buaya dan Sungai Buaya Cycling Club. 

Sekitar jam 12.30 kami bergerak balik, rumah dekat je dengan sekolah ni. Tak sampai 10 minit berjalan pun, tapi hari tu naik motor je lah. Tak larat lah nak mendukung, buat pulak jogging kehulu kehilir pagi tu. Huhu

Alang-alang singgah makan tengahari dulu before balik. Ada budak dah haus sangat tu.

So itu sahaja cerita malam ni, minggu ni aku dan family akan join satu lagi event komuniti kat sini. Event apa? Dah tentunya Maulidur Rasul yang akan kita sambut Khamis ni.

P/S: Ngantuk pulak aku nak tunggu pukul 11.30 ni. ZZZ

Kisah AKU n Welcome UCL 2023-2024

Assalamualaikum,

Ya betul, telah berlangsungnya match pertama the Magpies bagi the UEFA Champions League musim 2023/2024. First game kot, in fact this is the first match UCL yang aku tengok selama bergelar die-hard fans Newcastle sejak tahun 2002. Walaupun Newcastle pernah layak ke UCL pada musim 2002-2003, ya betul, exactly 20 tahun yang lepas, tapi time tu aku masih lagi muda dan tak pernah tengok pun game Newcastle dalam UCL. So, malam ni memang sweet moment lah. Huhu

Mestilah kena berselfie dengan jersi Newcastle ni untuk mendapatkan vibe first game. Huu. Ni merupakan jersi pertama yang ayah aku beli dulu sekitar tahun 2003-2004. Tak silap beli kat Maluri time melawat my uncle, Acik Joe. Still lagi muat walaupun agak singkat. Tu maknanya badan aku ni tak naik banyak pun after 20 years. Huhu

20 tahun lepas perjalanan kami sampai di second group stage sahaja. 

Season yang ni camnalah nasib, buat pulak dalam kumpulan dubbed as the Group of Death iaitu Borussia Dortmund (2nd in Germany' Bundesliga 2022-2023), PSG (1st in French Ligue 1 2022-2023) dan AC Milan (4th in Italian' Serie A 2022-2023) dan our beloved Newcastle United (4th in EPL 2022-2023). Of course sebagai penyokong yang boleh dikatakan veteran, aku harapkan the lads buat yang terbaik. Kita bukan plastic fans yang tau nak menang je. 

Ingat lagi after PIF takeover Newcastle almost 2 years ago, antara our new signing at that time - Kieran Trippier dan Bruno Guimaraes sanggup tinggalkan kelab masing-masing yang memang dah layak UCL untuk join Newcastle yang belum tentu survive EPL time tu. Bila ditanya dalam interview, diorang kata they believe in this project and vowed to bring the club to UCL which they did.

Our first UCL pre-match conference by the gaffer, Wor Eddie. 

Perlawanan pertama menentang AC Milan di San Siro, Italia. 

Perlawanan yang mendebarkan. Tak senang duduk aku dibuatnya. Biasa kalau tengok bola ni aku akan main game kat second screen. Tapi kali ni memang mata dok tengok match je.

Result. Okay lah dapat draw, at least dapat 1pt away from home. Next games iaitu sabtu ni (24/9) EPL lawan Sheffield (A), pastu 28/9 EFL Cup versus Mensiti (H), then dua hari pastu 30/9 lawan Burnley (H) pastu 5/20 bertarung dengan PSG (A) pulak. Pergh, memang pack. So let's pray and pray a lot.

Kisah AKU n Bannerlord: Realm of Thrones Pt.2

Assalamualaikum,

Malam ni aku terasa nak sambung review mod Realm of Thrones. If dalam part 1 aku review mod tu in perspective of Fredrik Reyne of Castamere, this time aku nak review feature "dragon" in this mod and to do that, I need a new character, a Valyrian character.

Ingat tak gambar from my last entry pasal mod ni? Yeah, that's dragon and I will show you why this beast memang patut digeruni. Huhu

Nampak tak shadow tu. Huhu. Bukan setakat boleh ride the dragon, but able to strike fear to the enemy with their dreaded dragonflame. Feature ni memang cool, cuma aku rasa naga ni overpowered. Korang bayangkanlah, naga sekor pun boleh hancurkan satu army of 150-250 men and sebagai seorang player yang suka sword-fighting dan deploy battle tactics, I found this extremely boring to play sebenarnya.

Why boring? Because we can just circle the enemy and unleash hell. Of course, dragon pun boleh received damages jugak tapi its very minimal, unless during siege battle where they might get killed/injured by ballistae fire.

Rasain lo!

Dari segi control memang ada lacking sikit but understandable since mod ni pun masih lagi WIP. Jangan ghairah sangat tekan "F" untuk dragonflame attack, sebab button "F" tu pun digunakan untuk dismount jugak. Karang sedap tengah fly tetiba jatuh pulak, macam dalam gambar ni. Haha

The aftermath. Who need an army when you can ride the dragon and destroy one. Haha. Okaylah, kalau ikutkan tu je lah review pasal naga ni. Kat bawah ni adalah short story aku create sikit. Jadi lah buat raso-raso. Huhu

This is Hesh. Located at the south-eastern part of Meereen, the castle served as the administrative center for a few villages, with Akiser and Kamshar are the largest and most populous. It was taken during Daenerys' liberation of Slaver Bay and its governorship was awarded to one of her companion, Aurelian Redfyre. Yes that's our hero for this entry.

House Redfyre was established after the death of King Aegon IV Targaryen on 184AC. Just like the other nine bastards of Aegon, Aurion "The Redfyre" Waters was legitimized by the king on his deathbed and allowed to form a cadet branch of House Targaryen. Aurion named it House Redfyre, by taking his nickname which originally derived from his reddish Valyrian sword. Instead of supporting Daemon I Blackfyre, the eldest of the bastard in his claim of the Iron Throne. Aurion remain loyal with the late-king's trueborn and heir, Daeron II Targaryen and fought for him during the First Blackfyre Rebelion. The Redfyre continue to serve their liege-lord until the penultimate Battle of Trident where Prince Rhaegar Targaryen was slain by Lord Robert Baratheon on 283AC. Survivor of the royal family, Prince Viserys III and Princess Daenerys I were being smuggled by Ser Willem Darry to Essos, together with a six-years old Aurelian. The trio stick together during the hard-time, vowed to protect each other and return to Westeros someday.

303AC - A twenty-five years old Aurelian now served as one of Daenerys' field commander and participated in her campaign against the factions of Slaver's Bay. By this time, Viserys has already dead. Aurelian is in a great despair since Viserys was his close friend, and even treated him like a brother. Nevertheless, Viserys reckless act cost him dearly, executed by Daenerys' Dothraki husband and warlord, Khal Drogo.

Campaign against the Astapor saw Aurelian rise to fame where his swift manoeuvre paved way for Daenerys' main army to capture the city without bloodshed. Commanding the Unsullied legion, Aurelian brilliantly tricked Astapor's marshal Razdal mo Eraz and defeated him near Hoqqa.

Daenerys moved her army towards Yunkai and siege the city. Here, she managed to convinced Daario Naharis to defect and acquired the service of the famous mercenary army; the Second Sons. As her forces swollen and strengthen day by day, the Targaryen queen gained massive popularity as liberator and continue to advance against her final and the strongest foe, the Meereen.

Aurelian and his Unsullied legion marched against Oznak zo Pahl. Heavily outnumbered three to one, the Valyrian commander demonstrated an impressive leadership to hold the line against countless wave of assault until the Targaryen's reinforcement led by Ser Jorah Mormont and Daario Naharis arrived to strike the Meereen from both flanks. The Battle of Meereen was the bloodiest engagement during Daenerys' liberation of Slaver's Bay campaign.

With the fall of Meereen, Daenerys sent her commanders to neutralize the region and to decimate the Slaver once for all. Hesh was captured by Aurelian Redfyre, Borash by Ser Jorah Mormont, Lamesa capitulated after a brief siege commanded by Ser Barristan Selmy and finally the market-town of Lhazosh seized by the Seconds Sons, thus ended the two years of relentless conquest.

During this period, Daenerys' three dragons namely, Drogon, Viserion and Rhaegal has grown enormously. Aurelian, due to his Valyrian blood, successfully bonded with Viserion and claimed the dragon while Daenerys retain control of her other two dragons. 

Despite interest from a few clans of the realm, Aurelian is committed with his duty and unwilling to marry. However, there's a wild rumor where he and the Queen are secretly in an intimate relationship, perhaps due to their shared Valyrian bloodline. Although the Redfyre is a cadet house of the Targaryen, both of them are from the same blood of the late Aegon IV and it's a known Valyrian custom of intra-marriage to preserve their unique traits of being the dragontamer.

306AC - Aegon VI Targaryen entered Astapor region with 30,000 troops with prime intenion to push her 'aunt', Daenerys out from the Slaver's Bay. Having secured alliances from Volantis and mercenary army from Yi-Ti, Aegon is highly confident with his massive forces and planned for a quick campaign. Little did he know that Daenerys has three full-grown dragons at her disposal, despite the army numerical inferiority. 

A solo reconnaissance routine by Aurelian managed to track Aegon's vanguard consisted of the Yi-Tish' army under the command of Lo Bu. Unwilling to waste his element of surprise, he decided to strike only with Viserion. Furthermore, his army is 50 miles away and might not be able to arrive on time.

In this battle, Aurelian managed to killed Lo Bu in an intense duel between the two skilled commander. The Yi-Tish forces was defeated and later, surrendered. In a show of force by using Viserion, Aurelian managed to forced Lo Bu's second-in-command to expose the current location and target of the other Aegon's forces. 

Upon receiving raven from Aurelian on the enemy's whereabout, Daenerys herself rode Drogon, and spearhead a massive Dothraki's cavalry charge which scattered the Volantenes. To the south, land forces under Ser Jorah and Ser Barristan occupied a high ground near River Usek to put a complete stop to Lord Connington's army at Ghozal. Fighting was intense between the two Targaryen's factions, but it was Daenerys' who gained the upper hand, thanks to her dragons and pool of brilliant generals.

The second month saw Daenerys planning to advance into Aegon's land. Aurelian's forces are attacking from the north with his main objective, the frontier-town of Tolos. While remain merciful to the civilians during his march to Tolos, the enemy's army however suffered the opposite. Soldiers who refused to surrender will be executed with Viserion's dragonflame. Upon reaching Tolos, Aurelian quickly lay siege of the town and commenced the attack with his ground forces.

Unable to secure the gate in his first attempt, Aurelian rode Viserion and launch a thunderous attack against the defender which allow the Unsullied to scale the wall and open the town's gate. A brutal urban combat happened between the two combatants which saw the immediate collapsed of the defending army. 

Aurelian, looking on the destruction upon capturing the city of Tolos signaled the beginning of Daenerys' counter-offensive campaign against her nephew. Having lost half of his forces in the opening two months of campaign, Aegon lost the will to fight. His lands were razed by Daenerys' vicious tactics. His people are suffering and blamed him for the chaos he brought into. Aegon's capital, Mantarys revolted and seized by the Old Ghiscari's noble. Abandoned by his ally, Aegon fled west and crossed the Narrow Sea to seek protection from the Dornish' prince, Doran Martell. 

Cerita aku habis sampai sini je, tak dan nak main banyak pulak analisis nak kena buat minggu ni kat office. Huhu

Baiklah, that's the end untuk my second review untuk ROT. To be honest aku memang layan mod ni je sekarang. Tapi tu lah sekarang ni pun main game time weekend je, itupun dalam sejam dua. Penat mat, kerja banyak sekarang. Huh
