A few days before Raya!


Hola I'm 7 whopping months!!

***

Had a great few days with my close friend, Jengae. Its been ages since we've hung out like this. F wasn't around so we made it a sleep-over. I got a free makeover and love loveddd the eye make-up she did. (I felt like Kim K'dash - at the eyes only laa...keji)

Went for a much needed pedi and mani. Sunway Giza is pretty neat, next time you go, you MUST wear a sundress or let your hair down. The breeze is just wonderful!

My IKEA friends cc application got rejected, not really sure why..should I be worried? hak hak. I hate you ikea!

***

We had daging pacak early this morning for Sahur. Our last sahur for our first ever Ramadhan together. So happy you were here with me throughout the whole month (give or take).

***

I'm working today (somewhat), later at 2 we're gonna go put up one more set of lights at our place, change my sunnies that I got at a dirt cheap price, pack my bags and either have our iftar in KL or head back to Atok's in Kendong =)

Much love.

17 Ramadhan


Ruang legar udara segar, aka tempat bersalam di pagi Raya (di rumah lama)

Pada asal nya, Atok merasa sedih bila KTM memaksa dia untuk berpindah ke tanah lain. Masa itu sangat sedih membayangkan Atok, di usia tua, terpaksa berhadapan dengan perubahan yang besar. Penukaran tempat tinggal, yang melibatkan rutin seharian Atok. Dah tak ada lori sayur untuk di sapa di waktu pagi, atau orang-orang kampung yang lalu lalang di waktu petang. Bagi aku, itu lah titik permulaan di mana Atok dan kebahagiaan mental nya tidak akan sama seperti dulu. At a golden age of 86, I think it is close to cruelty.


Ini tempat kegemaran aku dan sepupu-sepupu ku! Verandah ke? Mungkin satu ketika dahulu ia verandah. Tapi bagi kami cucu-cucu Atok, ini la landasan berlari paling best di dalam rumah kayu Atok. Rumah atok bersebelahan dengan landasan keretapi. Tiap kali mendengar bunyi horn keretapi, kami akan berlari (intentionally with force) dari hujung ruang tamu ke hujung tingkap, untuk melambai keretapi. Ape punye perangai lah. Atok tidak pernah sesekali memarahi kami. Melainkan aku yang suka sakat anak ayam Atok, dan menapau anak ayam untuk di bawa pulang ke KL. Tapi akhirnya, anak ayam itu pasti mati juga kerana diasingkan dari environment semula jadi nya.



Ini sudut katil Atok di rumah lama. Best sangat. Aku selalu suka tido kat sini. Atok letih halau aku sambil cakap , "Atok nak tido da ni.." haha..saba yo lah Atok eh. Kita boleh je kongsi katil ni tok, masa tu saya kocik yo. Atok suka bantal busuk yang kami bawak pulang dari Taiwan. Warna merah, dengan polka-dots hitam. Cute sangat Atok pon ade bantal busuk. Pada hari Atok masuk Wad di Hospital Tampin, Atok tidak lupa untuk membawa bantal itu bersama.

Bye-bye Atok buat selama nya..

Ini lah Atok. Sentiasa menjenguk, menunggu cucu dan anak-anaknya pulang ke kampung. Atok sangat manja. Dia tidak seperti Encik (atok) belah Melaka. Sekarang satu pon aku tak ada. Baik Atok mahupun Encik.

Atok I will miss you so much. Kenapa Atok kurus sangat?

Tak apa lah Atok, kurus ke gemok ke, yang penting Atok sudah menyahut panggilan Illahi. InsyaAllah Atok akan berjumpa dgn Nenek di sana. Saya akan selitkan doa khas untuk Atok tiap kali mlm jumaat menjelma..

Al-Fatihah.

Silver Jubilee

At 25 weeks =)
The baby is kicking a lot more now, and usually active around 11am, and later at 4pm (as if to remind me to pack up and go already). F still hasn't gotten used to the sensation yet. Or he's just acting all macho and him-like. Really happy that the baby is doing well, and hopefully will be OK during this ramadhan.


Surie's engagement.


Our first meal at our place.



We're both considering everything economical and feasible at the same time. Can't seem to get it all together in due time. Wish I was not under a time constraint. Bah humbug. So thankful to Allah that I made it this far. That's all that should matter!
