Congkak
Congkak is believed to originate from the word ‘congak’ which in old Malay Language means count. It is believed that the game originated in Malacca Kingdom where it became very popular and spread to the South East Asia region. This spread was due to the many travelers who visited the kingdom because it was a trading city. In the early days, it was thought that this game was for the king and family and palace residents, however later it spread to the general population of the kingdom. As the congkak board is shaped like a boat it is believed that it is based on the legend of a fisherman unable to go to the sea during rainy season who lost his income during this time. To prevent boredom he created this game which is similar to his boat. However, on the island of Java, the board always has a dragon head at each end and the sides of the board (which is made of wood) are carved to look like reptile scales. - wikipedia.

Batu Seremban
Batu seremban or five stones is a game originally played by girls. This is an easier game to play compare to congkak because it only needs five stones or five round objects to play with. You can either play with five, seven or nine objects determining to what type of game you are playing. The objective of the game is to throw one of the stones one at a time and sweeping another on the floor simultaneously catching the one you threw earlier on. This game continues to advance stages where the game gets complicated. This game is enjoyed by all sex nowadays no matter whether you’re old or young you can still play this game and have fun.  [thinkQuest]

Pagi Yang Merah

Salam! Satu pagi tu ketika bergegas untuk hantar anak ke sekolah, Pacik terpandang cahaya terang di langit. Dari rumah Pacik yang terkepung dengan rumah-rumah jiran, ditutupi pula dengan pokok-pokok, Pacik tidak mendapat gambaran sebenar pemandangan tersebut. “Tunggu sat!” Pacik pesan kepada Amirul dan Aisyah yang telah siap menunggu dalam kereta. Lalu Pacik bergegas ke dalam bilik, kalang kelibut memasukkan bateri kemera terus capai kunci motor. Kalang kelibut pula menghidupkan enjin motor dan terus bedesup menuju ke hujung kampung. Subhanallah! Cantik sungguh pemandangan pagi itu, naik gerun pun ada melihat limpahan warna merah seakan api yang sedang menyala di langit. Entah setting apa, Pacik cuba merakamkan pemandangan yang pasti berlaku sekejap sahaja. Sempat snap beberapa keping dengan pelbagai setting dalam kemera sebelum pemandangan itu hilang berganti langit cerah seperti pagi biasa.

Sungguh benar, Yang Indah itu Allah, pemberi rahmat seluruh alam….
