Old and Wise

Old and Wise

As far as my eyes can see

There are shadows approaching me

And to those I left behind

I wanted you to know

You've always shared my deepest thoughts

You follow where I go

And oh when I'm old and wise

Bitter words mean little to me

Autumn winds will blow right through me

And someday in the mist of time

When they ask me if I knew you

I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine

And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes

Oh when I'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see

There are shadows surrounding me

And to those I leave behind

I want you all to know

You've always shared my darkest hours

I'll miss you when I go

And oh when I'm old and wise

Heavy words that tossed and blew me

Like autumn winds will blow right through me

And someday in the mist of time

When they ask you if you knew me

Remember that you were a friend of mine

As the final curtain falls before my eyes

Oh when I'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see

Malam semalam masa nak tidur tu dok terpikir pasal lagu apa nak jadikan theme song for my blog. Dok pikir punya pikir teringatlah lagu 'Old and Wise'. Lagu ni sebenarnya was one of my close friends' song. Dia ni memang ramai peminat disebabkan muka dia yang boleh dikatakan agak tampan tu. Macho pulak tu. Tapi dia ni pemalu. Tapi tak tahulah macamana dia boleh become close dengan kita. Agaknya masa tu I was the youngest adek kot kat Uni tu. And I was the only girl yang ambik kursus tu. Kebanyakkannya lelaki yang menyertai bidang yang kita pelajari tu. Anyway, lagu ni memang banyak mengingat kan kembali kisah2 lampau. Bila pikir2 balik, seronoknya zaman belajar dulu. No problem langsung, but of course masa tu rasanya belajar ni susahnya, kalau keje kan best. Now barulah tahu betapa susahnya kalau dah kerja and ada responsibility untuk nak jaga anak2 sendiri. Tapi setakat ni Alhamdulillah semuanya masih terkawal lagi.

So, tadi pagi dok SMS kat one of the abangs (RF) masa belajar tu and then call dia. Dia dulu pun baiklah dengan we all ( I stayed with 3 other kakaks and during the stay I was very close with one of them. Sampai sekarang masih keep in touch. Kak A nama dia). We started to talk about our family and then sambung pada kawan2 yang dah lama tak jumpa. Pemilik lagu 'Old and Wise' ni pun tak tahu kat mana. Tapi RF kata kalau dapat nanti dia akan inform me. Dalam pada cakap2 pasal kawan lama ni timbullah isu siapa dah dapat title from the King or the Agong. Title Dato', Datok or etc. Itulah dia budak2 Mizzou dulu. Now dah 3 yang dah dapat title, satu big Boss kat Kulim high-tech, satu kat Astro and satu lagi kat Celcom. Mana sangka dulu semuanya toya2 aje. Ada diantara mereka ni masa di Ol' Mizzou dulu menjual nasi lemak sebab nak cari duit belanja. Mungkin berkat jual nasi lemak tulah yang sekarang ni dah hidup senang lenang. Dulu kak A ni ada bercinta dgn one of them ni. I was kiranya dia punya posmen lah. Tapi jodoh tak kesamapaian, they broke off and Kak A got married to another Abang yang sama belajar and sekampung. Kalau tak Kak A dah jadi Datin A. Tapi tak pe, Kak A pun sekarang very happy dgn Abg dia tu. Ialah kaya raya.....

Back tu the song again, lagu ni memang koya or istilah sekarang ni jiwang. Tapi mendalam sangat maksud dia. Itulah rasanya sesuai untuk dijadikan lagu blog ni as this will be my diary. Mana tahu when the final curtain falls before my eyes, all my cerita will be read by my anak2 and cucu2, InsyaALlah.( I used to write in my diary before but has stopped since I have babies. Thanks to my bro-in-law who has intoduced this blog to me)

As for myself, I am contented with Allah blessings. Tengah tunggu nak dapat title nenek . Maybe in 12-15 years lagi kalau my eldest daughter nak kawin. Ha... Ha... Ha... :)):))

Siang tadi tak dapat nak blog. Hari sibuk menabur duit kat sekolah. Botak dah beg duit tu asyik kena korek. Mintak2 anak2 sedar kepayahan mak & Abah nak menyekolahkan and membesarkan mereka. Doa mak semuga anak2 mak rajin belajar, jangan lupa solat dan selau bersyukur dengan apa yang kita ada.......

Selamat Tahun 2006. Semuga tahun ini akan lebih baik dari tahun yang baru berlalu, InsyaALlah.(12:00am, 1/1/2006)
