Judging Went Wrong

Allamanda Putrajaya’s washroom is filled in seconds after the movie ended. Girls fixing their make-up, some fixed their clothes (which somehow moves while sitting static on a chair, but that is none of my business).

I’m fixing my lipstick on the mirror. A woman with her daughter waited nearby. I guess they are waiting for turns to use the toilet, until suddenly the daughter asked.

“Mak, why does that women doesn’t wear tudung?”

I guess I’m in shock, but tries to hide my inner battle in my head. What shook me more is the answer from the mother:

“Only women who are not afraid of God, doesn’t listen to what Him who doesn’t wear tudung. Men doesn’t like women who doesn’t wear tudung. Don’t be like her.”

I walked and smiled at the mother.

“Well, I would be shocked if I met you in hell later. See ya!”

Book Review: Tirani by Beb Sabariah

(This is the finest picture of the book that I can find on the web) The theme and story line is purely on women. Say it to me, I am feminist (grin) hewhewhew. This book is about a woman (Waheeda) who is obsessed to beauty, until she decides that she wants to do plastic surgery. She is tired of being mocked that she is ugly. At the same time, she was a managing a tourism company in Sarawak. Yes, it surprises me that the whole story line talked about Sarawak, and I finally realize the beauty of my own land. Because when I picked this book out of the shelves, I never thought that it took place in Sarawak, especially Kuching. Those roads that I am really familiar with. Towards the end of the story, her husband, Zahid left her because he thought that she was cheating on her. Waheeda struggled and became single mom. Brought up her daughter, Izzati until they met again. The struggle of women caught my eyes for this novel. I really want women to be look up as the one power that ...

Book Review: Seronok by Saat Omar (Buku FIXI)

(I believe what is more catchy is the book cover!) Thanks to CAIS UNIMAS, I finally can read this book. The theme of the story is about homosexual -- Amirul is falling for Bakar. For me, I've been looking for this type of story in Malaysian literature, too bad I started with this one (after all I always loved Fixi books). I am studying on transgender and their 'relatives' and being homophobic at the same time. Trying to understand why people don't accept them. I actually accepts them, but not allowing them continue being one. Because? It is wrong of course. However, nice story line, the composition and the maximum usage of the characters, I love them. Especially Amirul because he actually told everyone he is a gay, but not to his mother (how ironic!) And few critics on arts and films, it blends well and towards the ending ----- a gay can actually change to a normal guy. Why? Because woman belong to man, and so vice versa.
