My Answers Part 2

I really don't know how to get in touch with the "blogger analyst", so I just hope that he/she reads this and comment again. I know that I don't owe anyone any explaination but after the "commotion" in the comment box, I can't help but respond.


The blogger analyst said :

When a blog is left unblog for quite sometime, there are few possibilities;


1. The blogger is sick?

Well, except for some sore throat a few week back, Alhamdulillah, I am not seriously sick.
Unless of course I have some other sickness in me which I have no idea about. I have not had a medical check-up for years now. Bad, isn’t it? Especially a makcik my age. I am supposed to have pap-smears, mammogram, blood cholesterol, blood sugar level, all those regiments right? !!.

But so far, I am fine thanks.

2. The blogger is dead?


Alhamdulillah, I am still alive and kicking. Maybe not as high as Dato Michelle Yeoh but still can kick lah. So don’t try to cross me OK. Hehehe.

Reminder : Need to buy the Anlene Concentrate tomorrow.


3. The blogger is detained by the authorities?


Why should I be detained by the authorities?
My kampung blog contain nothing that may have caused harm to the national security. Tak glemer pun. The police may not even read my blog. It's so harmless.

Apart from some unpaid traffic summons, I have not broken any law. I am such peace loving and law abiding makcik, so why should I be detained.

A few years ago, I even discover that some of the traffic summons, although they were in my name and my car number plate, they were not committed by me. How come? Well, supposedly, my car plate was photographed at places that I had never step my foot on. Somewhere in Kuantan. I don’t know how it happened but, lucky the police believed my story and I didn’t have to pay a single cent.

4. The blogger is having menoPAUSE?

What Menopause got to do with blogging anyway? Have you got any data that relate menopause to blogging ? It would be nice to know.

There are so many lady bloggers out there, who are already menopaused or near to menopause who are happily blogging. The eldest who I have come across was 72 years old lady, from Brazil, I am quite sure that she is already menopaused.

I am not into menopause yet but maybe I was having a “blogging perimanopause”, hehehe. Perimenopause is a period prior to menopause, when one would experience some symptoms of menopause.

So don’t underestimate the menopaused ladies blogger out there. They are doing a great job with their blogs. Some are even better than the younger ladies.

What about male bloggers ? If I am not mistaken there is a term as male menopause too. Are those who pause in blogging can be considered as having a male menopause syndrome?

I don’t know, why don’t you tell me.

5. The blogger interest in blogging has fizzled out?

My interest in blogging has fizzled out? Hmmmm, it is kind of subjective really. I still like to read blogs, I still like writing blogs. But, I am the type that can easily be bored with repetitive tasks. So I need to cool off a bit in between.

If my interest has fizzled out I would do one of these two things.

Close down the blog or keep it open but I would announce that I would no longer be posting any entry. InsyaAllah, there would be a “farewell” entry prior to that. That is, if I don’t suddenly just drop dead before I could that.


Why keep it open? Well, this blog is supposed to be for my children to read when one day, I am no longer around and they may want to reflect on our lives together. Kind of, like a legacy to them or something similar. Not just a framed photograph of me, but something that may rekindle their memories of yesteryears.

Reminder : I need to improve my writing, then. Need to write more of the kampung lives.

Now, you tell me which one?

I have written so much, the answer must NONE of the above.

What about you? Are you a blogger yet? If yes, why not announce it to the world. Or are you into one of the above categories ? You must give us a chance to analyse your blog. How about that hmmm...? Only then it would be fair right?


Last word.

Thank you so much for coming to analyse my blog anyway. I am so touched that there is a blogger analyst who care to come by and analyse my blog.
p/s pssst AN dah taruh resipi baru kat blog Dapur AN. Pergilah skodeng.

My Answers Part 1

Entry ini dan yang seterusnya adalah jawapan kepada "Wake-up call" dan "Blogger Analyst". Sebelum tu, terimakasih kerana telah meninggalkan komen yang begitu "memberangsangkan". Kawan-kawan yang selalu datang baca blog ni dah faham sangat dengan fe'el aku. I feel that these 2 gentlemen/ladies (whatever is your gender) have given me a kick in the butt. So, aku terfikir untuk menjawab. Terpulang lah untuk diorang untuk menilai. Yang baik tu ambiklah jadikan tauladan, yang tak elok tu buat sempadan.


Wake up call kata :

S : Susah ke nak update blog?

J : Ada kala susah, ada kala senang. Lebih susah dari senang.

Bila aku mula berblog dulu tu, masa tu aku memang berkobar-kobar semangat nak berblog. Sebab utama masa tu, adalah, aku nak isi ruang masa yang aku duduk kerja goyang kaki menunggu masa untuk berhenti kerja. Masa tu perasaan/emosi terlalu berkecamuk dan aku tak nak rasa stress menghantui diri. Aku tak suka ”hover negative thoughts” Jadi aku turn to blogging.

Bila dah berhenti kerja, lain pulak emosinya. Banyak rasa rendah diri atau inferiority complex yang masuk ke dalam fikiran. Maklumlah, kalau kita baca blog orang ramai yang cerita bagus-bagus. Sedangkan cerita apa yang seorang makcik yang duduk kat kampung ni boleh cerita?. Tak kan nak cerita rutin aku seharian sepanjang masa. Dari mula aku bangun, buat kerja rumah yang tak habis-habis, sampai aku tidur. Aku boleh imagine betapa boringnya korang nak baca. Asyik-asyik cerita itu je lah.

Tak kan nak cerita pasal ayam-ayam aku, kucing-kucing aku. Pokok-pokok sekeliling rumah. Walaupun kalau aku cuba ceritakan setiap satu, boleh agaknya jadikan kajian ilmiah. Kena pulak lah aku ambik gambar, cari nama scientifiknya dan cari semua manafaat pokok-pokok tu tak? Mak oi, jenuh aku nak buat research untuk beratus-ratus jenis pokok kat halaman aku ni. Kalau aku buat macam tu, baik aku buat thesis PhD.

Memang ada benda yang aku nak tulis, misalnya, sejak aku tak kerja ni apa business yang aku dah cuba, macam mana berjaya ka atau tidak?. Aku pun rasanya boleh tulis macam mana cara aku cari business yang sesuai.


Tapi topik tu belum boleh aku tulis lagi sebab aku belum menjadi usahawan yang berjaya. Aku tak ada track record nak tunjukkan bahawa walau pun aku ni dah lanjut usia masih belum terlambat untuk berjaya.

Masa mula berblog memang banyak idea, tetapi lama kelamaan idea pun dah kurang. Terutamanya kalau orang seperti aku yang jarang keluar rumah berinteraksi dengan orang kat luar sana tu. Aku tak nak lah korang kata entry aku ni crappy. So lebih baik rasanya diam saja. Kalau terlalu meluahkan perasaan nanti yang datang membaca pun asyik tengok aku mengeluh saja. So it’s better for me to be quiet.

Kata Wake-Up Call lagi :
Asyik kata nak update tapi tak terbuat.
Hai, dah 50 tau. Takkan masih berkelakuan bagi janji Melayu aje.Sesibuk macam mana pun, kalau hati rela, semua pasti boleh bikin.Kan dah bilang yang kau ni dah cuak sampai ke umur nie. Habis, masih tak sedar ke? Jangan hanya bilang aje, aunty. Kan sendiri yang akui pintu kubur dah dekat. Masih nak bagi janji manis yang tak dapat dikotai. Lebih baik jangan janji, aunty.

Memang aku akui, aku cuak dengan usia sekarang. Aku memang sedar pintu kubur dah dekat, sebab tu aku sekarang dah banyakkan masa untuk muhasabah diri. Solat taubat, zikir lama sikit, cari tempat mengaji dan lain-lain. Itu pun tak kan aku nak cerita kat semua orang. Karang di katakan pulak aku ni riak. Amal aku tak banyak mana tapi ceritanya yang lebih. Biar Allah saja yang menilai.


Kadang-kadang memang aku janji nak cuba berblog dengan lebih banyak, tapi 3 bulan kebelakangan ini memang aku terlalu sibuk. Aku kerap tak ada kat rumah. Internet langsung tak sentuh. Mula dengan kenduri kawin anak sedara aku, ada program latihan USAHAWATI-MPC. Kena bertungkus-lumus buat persiapan sebab event tu besar lah jugak. Lepas tu Nora pulak sakit, aku ke Langkawi dengan USAHAWATI, kemudian hadiri perkebumian Nora, kemudian balik sehari ke Penang dan ke Melaka berkursus pulak. Pada masa yang sama terpaksa membuat persiapan terakhir untuk program latihan. Balik dari Melaka, ada pulak AGM USAHAWATI,walaupun aku ni AJK je, tapi sibuk jugaklah. Tak kan metting tak hadir etc.etc. Siap lah aku jadi MC/Pengerusi majlis tu hehehe. Kerja yang tak pernah aku buat pun.
Lepas dah reda pasal persatuan, dah pulak Permatang Pauh ada by-election. Famous or rather infamous jadinya kampung aku masa tu. Aku tak lah berkempen tapi ada help out kat bilik gerakan sebab masa pilihan raya bulan Mac dulu tu aku diajak oleh ketua cawangan untuk mengambil alih tugas arwah ayah aku dulu. Untuk cari pengalaman aku pun setuju. Seronok jugak aku buat kerja tu, ada jugaklah peluang aku tahu masalah penduduk kampung aku sambil meninjau keadaan politik setempat. Bila ada pilihanraya kecik ni, kira sambung kerja sajalah.

Ni dah bulan puasa banyak aktiviti lain aku nak kena buat. Masa tidur aku pun dah haywire sebenarnya. Minggu ni ada tadarus kat mesjid, aku pun nak join sama.

Jadi nilailah sendiri pasai apa aku tak berblog sejak aku postkan birthday entry hari tu. Memang janji aku manis, tapi, aku ingatkan tak ada lah sangat orang nak kisah dengan blog makcik kat kampung ni.

Tapinya, terimakasih kerana beri aku ” a wake-up call”
