Proud to be Javanese

Recently aku de tgk satu telemovie, tajuk dia Parit Jawa. Telemovie ni dah lama release, tapi aku asyik miss je nak tgk kat saluran Citra Astro.

Mengisahkan tentang sebuah keluarga berketurunan jawa yg tinggal di parit jawa. As usual, storyline is about family conflict. Tetapi yang paling menarik adalah, telemovie ini memang berjaya menunjukkan values keturunan jawa. Cara bercakap, adab, makanan dan sebagainya. Tetapi secara jujur ada sebutan jawa cam agak kurang umph. Tetapi takpe, dimaafkan, kalau bukan jawa, memang susah nak ckp jawa. Ada iras2 pun jadilah. Berlakon kan..

Mak aku keturunan jawa. Ayah aku banjar. Usually kita akan terpengaruh ngan budaya keturunan bapa. Tetapi, keluarga aku lain, Kami cenderung lebih kepada budaya jawa. Mungkin sebab adik beradik saudara mara orang jawa ni ramai, so memang kuat lah pengaruh dia.

Berbalik pada telemovie parit jawa, konflik bermula apabila tanah pusaka yang arwah bapa mereka gadai ingin ditebus, tetapi ada adik beradik yang tidak bersetuju. Mereka lebih suka tanah itu dijual dan hasil jualan, dibahagikan adik beradik. Isu ini memang agak sinonim dikalangan masyarakat kita, bukan sahaja jawa. Tapi bagi orang jawa, menjual tanah pusaka adalah sesuatu yang tidak patut dilakukan. Sebagaimana yang dipaparkan dalam telemovie ini, memang benar mesej yang disampaikan bahawa tanah pusaka adalah maruah bagi orang jawa. Dari tanah kita datang, kepada tanah jugalah kita kembali. Tanah dimana rumah pusaka dibina haruslah dijaga kerana disitulah bermulanya salasilah keturunan.

Namun, di dlm zaman moden sekarang, ramai belia2 anak muda tidak sedar value tanah. Kita lebih suka duduk dibandar, mengumpul asset dengan membeli rumah, melabur di mana2 amanah saham. Kita kurang terdedah dengan pelaburan hartanah. Mungkin ada segilintir anak melayu yang melabur dalam hartanah..tetapi tidak ramai yang berminat hendak mengusahakan tanah. Its more on jual beli tanah. Harga naik, jual..beli tanah lain.. Padahal, sekiranya kita berbudi pada tanah, masyaallah, murah rezeki. Rumah perlu ubah suai, kadang2 kene buat maintenance.. tetapi tanah? Hanya perlu pastikan ada hasil. Tidak habis tanah tu. Betul x?..jika berbudi pada tanah dapat lah kita supply lebih banyak sumber makanan kepada orang ramai. Jika semua tanah di buat rumah, dekat mana agaknya nak tanam pokok? Global warming lg..Memang betul lah kata orang dulu2..berbaktilah pada tanah dengan bercucuk tanam..sesungguhnya lebih bermanfaat.

Ayah aku selalu bercakap pasal pelaburan hartanah dengan aku. Aku tahu ayah aku memang betul2 mahu membantu aku menambah asset dalam bidang ni. Insyaallah, dengan izin Allah aku akan cuba explore bidang ni.

Telemovie parit jawa ni, memang patut ditonton oleh semua sebab ia memang memberi mesej yang sangat mendalam.

Culture jawa yang aku dpt spot dlm telemovie ni.
1. Makan nasi ambang dalam dulang ramai2
2. Tempe tempe tempe
3. Makan nasi goreng minyak dengan ikan masin.
4. Salam semua orang bile berada dia suatu tempat/majlis
5. Anak2 akan keluar salam pak cik mak cik tanpa disuruh.

Psst..bakal suami aku pure keturunan jawa. Dia kata, kalo pure jawa, muka jd chinese look..haha yeke??..saya mmg suka jawa =)

Busy lah sangat =)

I have not written any post since Last February. For 3 months I wrote nothing. Why? Why? Why?

Well, so many things going on in my life. Because of that, so pack and tired, till I am not even realized it’s already few months I left this blog.

But after all these things happen, and I am in the period of cooling down, I think I should just write. Or else, it just becomes memory. Is worth to write it here and read it after few years, so that I can do self reflection.

Why am I so busy??

I am busy with work. There are new task coming in more and more. At first I thought I am not efficient, but it is not. Indeed a lot of work, meetings day and night, discussion, brainstorming, training, workshop, assignment, presentations. And when I go back home, I just want to have a rest and watch my favourite TV series. It indeed helps me refresh =).

I am busy with wedding prep. Do it alone while my fiancée is away, definitely a big challenge. Imagine you go shopping some wedding stuff, a lot of shopping bags to carry, plus some of it is heavy stuff, and no man power. Oh god, it so tiring, but when back home, so happy!! And also so excited, and so proud of myself because it’s a girl power =)

I am busy to improve my spiritual side. I am a Muslim, but.....well not really embedding what a Muslim should be or should do..a lot of people are like me..wearing hijab, seems to cover  aurat, pray 5 times a day...BUT, it is a big BUT. Wearing hijab and cover aurat but not perfect. Not as Allah want, not as Rasulullah taught us. Pray but not perfect..late, not khusyuk..MasyaAllah...well a lot of things actually. So thanks to Allah, after I attend this one Islamic convention, I realize I might don't get a chance to go to heaven at all since so many sins I did. BUT Allah is the most forgiven..those who seek forgiveness to Allah (taubat), insyaallah will be forgiven. I just hope I will istiqamah in ibadah and become a solehah wife and mithali mom. I started to read, listen and watch more religious stuff, and do a lot of self reflection. I am praying that all people around me will also love Allah and Rasul more and more. "Hidayah" is the sweetest phenomena happen in my life. I love the new me. So happy and peace =).

Last but not least, things that make me busy for another month is I just moved to new rental house. Yes, I decided to rent. To show that I am so lazy, I rent fully furnished. Earlier I was plan to buy but me and fiancée don't want to do it in a rush. No way we have enough time to buy new house before get marry...we want it to be slow steady and no regret. Even though my house only have 1 bedroom, I am very satisfied..such a perfect house for new married couple. Well, of course my fiancée will move in after we get married. For the time being, I live alone with Nikki. These past weekend I am busy to shop few stuff for the house..small small things but still cost a lot of money..imagine if I rent non furnished..will be triple costly I guess. But now already settle down, and so happy living my new life. The whole new adventure! =)

I guess how busy you are, writing your though and feelings is a good therapy. I should do this more often. =)
