Pink Activities

Last 25 October, 2008, I was again invited by DJ Anna to her show in Kristal FM. I was joined by Matron Dayang Hajah Jaliha Hj Momin, Community Health Nurse, who is also the Chairlady of our Brunei Breast Cancer Support Group. On air, the Matron shared on how to do Breast Self Examnation (BSE), the diffirent steps how to do the BSE and other breast cancer related info.

I was also joined by my nieces, DayangKu Farah Aiysha and DayangKu Farah Abadi (the 'Ambuyat' Girl in the ASTRO Disney Channel). The girls had the chance to learn from DJ Anna how to operate their system and later they had the chance to request for their favourite songs to be played on air.


While later in that afternoon, I was invited by the Ministry of Health, as the guest speaker at their function, in conjunction with the October Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The talk, attended by community nurses from throughout the country, was organized to increase their awarness being the frontline health personel.

Resah......

The sharing of LAGU TENTANG CINTA started when Daffy was asking me if I would know the title of one Indonesian song. So he started singing some of the lyrics to me and I knew it was by Hetty Koes Endang and an Indonesian footballer, Adjat Sumardjat. We sang it together again and again, just trying to recall. I told Daffy, the song had been my favorite and it was during my love 'affair' with dearest years back. We sang and sang but still could not figure out the title. It was after we left the tennis court, I suddenly managed to recall the title and shouted to Daffy:

"It is RESAH Daff"

"Are you sure?" wondered Daffy

Confidently I said "Very"

Daffy took out his pen and started jotting it down on a small piece of paper. He was so happy and so excited. I told him, I have the MP3 and would forward it to him if he could not find one in the net. Apparently, he could not, and only managed the karaoke version. So, I forwarded him the MP3 version I have got and that was how it got on air in KFM......

Daffy, you would not be RESAH now......

Aku Cinta Kepada Mu.....

I was on my way home from work yesterday. As usual I like to tune in to KFM and especially when DJ Daffy is on air. Daffy is also our usual tennis sparring mate.

Daffy then said:

"Ka Eita, if you are listening right now, I have a special message for you"

I was kind of "huh, special message for me?"

I waited anxiously for the 'special message'.

"Here it is. Actually, I received a text message from your hubby, who is in the UK right now...... and he said 'I miss you so much and that I love you', requested for a song entitled 'LAGU TENTANG CINTA by Bebi Romeo and Rita Effendi".

As soon as the music played, suddenly without realizing, my tears flowed down my cheeks. The song, the words, the voices, all in, really touched my heart. No doubt this song has been our favorite since we first got it years back and used to listen to it with dearest hubby, while driving.

All this while, I have been keeping this special song to ourselves. Only like 2 days ago, I was ready to share it and happened to be Daffy. LAGU TENTANG CINTA was first time ever to be played on air by Daffy.

Lagu Tentang Cinta

Dengar, dengar lah cinta ku
Dengan hatimu yang dulu
Lelap, lelap kan tidur mu
Sampai kau datang pada ku

Aku akan bernyanyi
Sebuah lagu tentang cinta
Yang berakhir bahagia
Seperti pertama
Aku cinta kepada mu

Dengar, ku dengar cinta ku
Dengan hati ku yang dulu
Lelap, ku lelap kan tidur ku
Sampai kau datang pada ku

Aku akan bernyanyi
Sebuah lagu tentang cinta
Yang berakhir bahagia
Seperti pertama
Aku cinta kepadamu

Aku akan bernyanyi
Sebuah lagu tentang cinta
Yang berakhir bahagia
Seperti pertama
Aku cinta kepadamu

Aku cinta kepadamu

12 June....

It's the month of the year and the date of the month. Another year passed by, another year came around. Thank you Allah for this wonderful blessing and precious gift.

It's my birthday today. I shed tears when my beloved husband greeted and wished me this morning. It has been 18 wonderful years we shared our lives together. He had been there for me all these years and with me on my birthday today. Alhamdulillah, another wonderful gift for me from Allah.

I recieved a lot of sms this morning from family, friends and colleagues in the office. There were also greetings on air via KFM. My nieces Ku Farah Eica and Ku Farah Abadi made an early morning phone call to me.

'Happy birthday Bonda! Are you going to belanja us tomorrow?' said Eica

I laughed and asked her for my presents.

'Happy birthday Bonda! I love you' greeted Abadi

I asked her for my presents as well and she asked for hers instead as her birtday is not long from now.

These are my other cute nieces. Abadi, the talent for Disney Channel programme, will have her episode on air this Saturday, 14 June at 9ish and 5ish. The repeast will be at the same time on Sunday.

I am so proud to be their bonda.
