Erin The Drama Queen

assalamualaikum....

huhu....this entry might be short only. biasalah....berebut penggunaan internet bersama adik terchenta.huh!


tadi petang visit maktok lagik. Alhamdulillah, hari she seems to get better. makan pun dah banyak sket daripada semalam. cakap pun dah kuat sikit. mata pun dah makin segar.tadi bawak maktok jalan-jalan sikit (dgn wheelchair lah...) jalan-jalan sikit je. nursing centre tuh bukan besar mana pun. erin ngan mamanya pun ikut sama. lincah betul si erin ni. dia suapkan matok dia air, betulkan katil maktok, and tolong maktok makan sama....hehehe... maktok nak makan kari, so mama erin pun buatkan. si erin nih pulak memang pantang tengok kari, dia pun join maktok makan. bukan tolong suapkan maktok dia, suap mulut dia ada lah....hai, erin....erin....
hmmm.... tgk pada landscape di kawasan hospital, aku rasa.... ia patut di upgrade kan lagi supaya penghuni nya lebih riang utk berjalan-jalan. sedap sikit mata memandang. taklah rasa sangat ke-hospital-an nye kan.... nnt2 lah aku amik gambar tempat tuh. but after all, the nurses all seem friendly. tgk kerenah2 org2 tua ni pun interestting jugak... ada yang suka nyanyi... ada yang frenly.... but mostly diam je....dah tua kan....tak larat. aku suka dengar nenek berbangsa cina yang dok sebelah kamar maktok tuh gembira. she's so cheerful. the nurse senyum kat dia and goyang2 kepala sikit, dia pun join nyanyi. itsybitsy spider lah.....baa baa black sheep lah... so cute!!

oh yer....teringat pulak insiden masa kat alor star. masa balik from majlis bertandang, singgah kat rumah maktok dulu (dah dijual sbb takde org nak jaga kan....dari pada dibiar jadi potensi sarang penagih, baik kasik masyarakat guna kankankan....) umah maktok tuh skarang dah upgrade jadi pusat clickers (tmnet....) pulang dari majlis tersebut, aku follow aunty nah. erin pun ada lah sama. kami pun singgah sat umah maktok, alang2 dah lalu tuh kan. kitorang pun cakap la kat erin "tgk tu erin....rumah maktok dah jadik cantik...dorg dah buat tempat clickers....". tak semena-menanya, miss little-drama-queen ni teresak-esak menangis tgk umah tuh dah berubah....."mana umah mama???? kesian umah mama dah takde.... mana umah mama?mana?" sambil meraung-raung. "eh budak ni? wat the fish???" terkezut aku dibuatnya. ini first time aku tgk aksi drama queen ini secara live. aduhai erin.... sentimentalnya kamu.....ish ish ish....
aku, eleena (kakak si erin ni...) and uncle tengku (papa erin...) hanya mampu ketawa tgk gelagat erin yang tak sudah2 dramatik tuh. aku sampai tak larat nak gelak tgk kerenah erin. mamanya jenuh nak distract dia dgn cerita zaman kanak-kanaknya spy erin berhenti ber'sentimental'.... hik hik....
aduhlahai erin ....erin.....

rumah maktok: the new look.

okesh....dah kering idea nak nulis hapa.... sok sambung lah..... insyaAllah sok nak upload gambar2 wedding.
gambar mat rempit takdak la adian... cermin keter belah aku duduk tuh kabur dgn air yang terkondensasi...maka kalo amik pon tak clear. lagi plak....takot gak nak amik gambar....mau si rempit2 tuh ligan aku bila nampak aku amik gambar...tak ke naya?? huhu.....

Kisah Kasih.........

my beloved mummy and maktok
the picture above is my mom and maktok. maktok is getting weaker. sangat sedih bila visit dia smlm. suara dia sangat susah utk aku fahami. hanya mummy yang boleh tangkap setiap patah kata yang keluar dari bibir maktok. itupun bila mummy dekatkan telinga pada maktok. maktok was admitted to the ColumbiaAsia nursing and rehabilitation centre in Shah Alam on 22nd. semua gara-gara khuatir akan keadaan nya yang uzur tu. takkan nak bawak dia ke alor star gak dgn keadaan dia yang lemah tuh kan. kesian dia kena travel jauh, nnt dia penat. so mummy and her siblings pun decided to put here there utk sementara. PAUSE! i know some might think we are being cruel to her by putting her in an old folks home. NO! it's not an OLD FOLKS shelter my dear. it's NURSING centre, OKAY! kat situ, sementara menunggu maid from surabaya datang, she will be taken care by those nurses and doctors. rather than if she stay at home and takde sapa can jaga her ALL the time. some of my frens mesti penah dengar tentang maktok kan? well, she haven't got her sleep for quite some time. di centre tu, Alhamdulillah she could rest better than she is at home. kalo di rumah, dia bukannya reti dok diam. dia bangun duduk dangun duduk jalan sana jalan sini duduk smula...all for nothing. nak bangun dari duduk tu pun dia kena kerah kudrat sebanyak mungkin... so, all of us at home are worried that she had been "naughty"... (sesuai ke perkataan ni?)

petang semalam, aku ikut mummy visit maktok. pagi tu nana and anip yang ikut. that was my very first visit since she was admitted. masa balik from ukm pun tak sempat jumpa dia dulu b4 she was sent there. i hearrd stories by mummy, uncle nasser and aunty nah about how susah it was to make her stay there. and how berat hati it was for my mum and her siblings as well to leave her. mlm mummy hantar maktok ke sana tu, mummy dok sorg2 dlm bilik maktok. tgk tv konon. but i saw mummy's eyes were red. so i decided to leave her alone, giving her space to calm down. after all, maktok is her mum kan. back to cerita semalam. when mummy and me sampai di kamar maktok, she was heavenly sleeping. so we just let her sleep while we quietly sat on the chairs and read newspapers. later, a pair of nurses came to check her temperature and pressurre. surprisingly, dia tak sedar langsung. nyenyak betul dia tdo. after a few minutes, the nurses suruh kejut dia makan sbb last meal she ate was at 12 that afternoon. at first she refuse , "kenyang makan tengah hari tadi tak habis lagi" she said. so mummy pujuk and pujuk and finally she ate a little. very little....just a few teaspoon of nasi and soup and a quarter cup of plain water. then mummy make her a quarter cup of milo and she drank that and mummy lega sikit dia minum milo tuh abis. after that, mummy lap muka and badan dia sikit. bersih-bersihkan dia... pastu kami nyembang2 sikit, eventho her voice was very halus, mummy and me tried real hard to understand and Alhamdulillah, we did. mummy peluk maktok and mintak ampun sbb selalu marah maktok. mummy didnt meant to marah her, its all for her own good. mnummy sangat risau maktok jatuh bila tgh jalan, mummy risau maktok sakit kalau tak tdo malam betul2 ...sebab tu mummy marah maktok. bak kata orang, marah tanda sayang. mummy mintak ampun sambil nangis2 sbb terpaksa marah maktok. betapa naluri aku sebagai seorang anak amat tersentuh melihat airmata mummy ku menitik demi maktok; ibu nya itu. tak semena-menanye, airmata aku pon laju je mengalir. ( huhu... btol kata adian, aku ni ratu menangis gak.... :P ) aku mana bleh tgk mummy nangis, automatik aku pon akan nangis sama.

mummy.... farah akan jaga mummy macam mummy jaga maktok sbb farah sayang mummy sama macam mummy sayang maktok. maktok....farah sayang maktok jugak.maktok cepat balik ye...farah rindu maktok!! semua orang rindu maktok...maktok jgn nakal ye!!

ok...STOP! before i start crying again..... huhu!!

berenang di alor star

assalamualaikum wbt....


hOLa!!!~ ekekek....I'M HOME!!~ ngeee.
just got back from alor star last night.when mummy told that we were heading back alor star at 22nov until 27nov last week, i was like "OMG!!! lamanya!!!WAAAA!"
but then, haha....best plak jadiknya! playing with dear mr l
itlle-cheeky-hussayn, jalan-jalan cari makan, and pretending to be busy helping out the wedding preparation *winK!* (duH! my cousin's wedding la...not mine...ish!)
we took off from pj (yes P. J. yer adian.... not K L!!!
:P ) on the 22nd at 4 pm. actually, plannya berlepas after subuh but delayed. thanks to kaklin (er....abah pon sama...) for turning off the pc and "vanishing" the works abah had been working on ALL niTe!!~
hmm...ah!! cut those crap lah.... lets go straight to alor star. the wedding preparation,mcm bese lar. but wedding this time a bit different sbb....miahaha!!! tugas kasi bunga telor udah di pas kontrak nya pada generasi yg lebih muda itu. kekeke... so i lepak je la. ngeh ngeh!
plus, i got the chance to snip snap the pictures using the new camera :P but tak brani nak pandai2 sangat jugak. sbb.... protokol. aihh...t
erasa terhad pergerakan untuk jadik photographer tak bertauliah ini, sume gara2 protokol yg perlu diikut itu. bak kata anip, "haihh.... kiter ni tak bleh mandai2 je....only the photographer rasmi je ada lesen utk bebas ambik gambar." haihhh...... tp it was interesting tho. kekok gak nak angkat sembah masa Sultan Kedah lalu tu. ye lah, last time masa baginda datang kenduri di rumah yang sama tuh, (my uncle's...) i was far away di blakang tabir (huh!!macam movie production lak aku....poyos!!!) but this time, gatal2 plak g stand in front with my mom who was busy menyambut tetamu. kan dah tak pasal2 nak angkat2 sembah plak....aduhlahai.....

shafizt and marina...congratulations!!! (my cuz is the bride...)

keberangkatan tiba DYMM Sultan Kedah

enuff with the wedding, let's cerita about experience during the stay at alor star. first, the food. starting with the first moment we arrived, saaaaampailah saat pulang, tak abis2 mencari makanan yang takdak di pj.... (and kl la of coz....) mula-pula, pekena roti arab kat stadium... pastu the next day cari mee abu. yes, i hate mee tapi not mee abu. wat's so special bout this abu eh? unlike other mamak stalls, this abu guy refuse to use gas stove. dia masih menggunakan arang utk menggoreng dan memasak. that's why the taste still maintain eversince years before (personally i think, the mee sudah kureng sket but the kuey teow goreng tetap superb...hehehe) and the ice kacang...oh yes, the ice jagung!! nyam nyam!!! the malam afer kenduri, we went to mee abu and ate kuey teow goreng and ice jagung. than aunty nah's family joined us. guess what? uncle tengku (aunty nah's husband + erin's dad) ajak pi makan abc kat stadium. waduuuuuuuh!!! nak exoplode ja rasa!!~ oh yes. paling takbley lupa is last nite!! yucks!!~ we stopped at ...ooops!!~ rahsia.... restoran X di negeri Y for dinner. we were all starving and decided to order mee hailam and nasi goreng (both for the amount of 3...) so that makanan cepat sikit sampai. nasi goreng sampai dulu. then comes the mee hailam after the nasi goreng finishes. when the mee almost habis.... "tengok nih!!" abah tetiba bersuara.
i totally stopped eating. so does mummy, hanif and nana. i felt my face turned blue going to be purple (yeas ... yeah... i exaggerated a little...hehe....) guess what was it..... ANAK LIPAS!!! eeeeuuwwwww!!!~ STOP!! dont want to talk about this anymore..... kang muntah darah saya.... aduhlahai.......
hmmm....apa lagi yer.... oh did i mention that i saw LIVE action of those rempit thing.... scary! on our way back from the wedding preparation. we saw this bomba and ambulance on the other side of the road. we thot "woa!! accident!! get ready the camera!!!" lalu sebelah the vehicles.... "cheh!! shooting filem kerrr.....patotla nurse2 tepi tuh dok tersengih jer....ches!!!" then, drive on.... OMG!!! lots of motorcycle!! just like in the film Remp It. fuhlamak!!! just beside our mpv, a few mat rempit mengaksikan 'wheely' nyer... OMG lagi skali!! never seen these things secara LIVE!! betapa jakun la saya ini.... abah, who usually drives like a superman suddenly lost his "taring" when the anak2 muda "beraksi" . dah pulak, gate belakang seri m'sia tuh pulak tutup. terpaksa patah balik. abah dok bising nak pusing kot jalan jauh. mummy suruh just patah balik. anip and me soksek kat blakang tergelakkan abah yg jadik takut nak lalu sebelah mat rempit2 itu. well, funny but can't blame him kan. he was just worried on his family's safety. *luv u abah!* skali lagik kami mengharungi lautan mat rempit itu. and depan mata kami ini, 2 bijik moto tergolek-dog kat tengah jalan. mujo la abah bawak super-slow.

next... architectural talk...by...me! hehe.... alor star is a great place. well, im not commenting on alor star only, but ithink this thing applies to the whole malaysia. we see, like wat christoher alexander said, we should give priority to human comfort, bukan mengutamakan kemudahan motokar. oleh sebab aku, mummy and nana have to coss the jejantas from the parking to get to the pekan rabu mencetuskan betapa pentingnya aku perlu suarakan hal ini. betapa "perjalanan" mengahrungi jejantas itu mengingatkan teori christopher alexander tentang perancangan bandar. betapa aku setuju sangat teori beliau itu. betapa benarnya hakikat bahwa kemajuan yang manusia cipta itu secara tak langsung menyusahkan lagik kehidupan sehar-hari kita. bayangkan la, jejantas yang sepatutnya memudah kan manusia sebenarnya hanya benar di mata. hakikat yang setulusnya, ia menyukarkan fizikal manusia. kenapa perlu pejalan kaki memerah lebih tenaga untuk memanjat jejantas sedangkan hanya sedikit tenaga yang pemandu kenderaan perlukan untuk menekan minyak di atas jalan utk bergerak. dari segi safety, yes jejantas is the answer. tapi dari segi keselesaan manusia itu sendiri....? i totally disagree! selain dari segi architecture nye, jejantas nih pun salah satu kelemahannya adalah apabila wujudnya mentaliti rakyat malaysia yang kadangkala pengotor ini. malaysia indah, malaysia bersih....kita selalu dengar ayat2 itu kan? tapi itu secara rawak. cuba selak2 sikit di tempat tersorok....pasti ada je serpih2 sampah yang dijana oleh rakyat yang tak reti nak bezakan antara tempat awam dengan TONG SAMPAH! aku sanggup ajak mummy bersabung nyawa melintas tafik yg agak sibuk daripada memanjat jejantas yang dijamin keselamatannya itu tapi seakan-akan melalui satu lorong yang dipenuhi bau-bauan dan sampah sana sini tuh. jijik! sepanjang perjalanan aku melintas jejantas tuh buat aku loya. terpaksa menahan nafas dan menutup mata berjalan atas jejantas itu. Allah je tahu betapa seksanya lalu atas jejantas itu. cuba kalau setiap manusia yang bergelar rakyat malaysia ni menanamkan semangat utk buang sampah yang sendiri bikin dalam tong yang disediakan, these kind of situation tak akan terjadi. malaysia yang kita sayangi ni tentu akan sentiasa harum dan bersih. jangan di tanam kan sifat bila terjatuh sampah kita, org blakang akan kutip. susah la kalo camtu. aku dididik agar mengutip sampah yang kita nampak dan buang di tempat yang sepatutnya. tapi kalu sampanya berderet dan berbau belaka, baik aku keje jadik tukang kutip sampah je. apa salah nya kita ringankan beban pengutip sampah hanya dengan berusaha utk membuang sampah kita ditempat yang sepatutnya. hati kita puas, negara kita ni pun sedap mata memandang. kalo setiap orang amalkan, i am sure our beautiful malaysia can be the most heavenly place to live in. back to architectural talk, how i regret that human these days think about the most easiest way for a car to move about rather than how comfortable a human itself to move around. kenapa motokar itu lebih penting pergerakannya sedangkan kadangkala keselamatan dan keselesaan pejalan kaki yang terpaksa mengerah kudrat mereka diabaikan kebajikannnya? leaders of tomorrow, i guess you can get wat im trying to say here. cakap saja tak guna kan.....
