this is the place i share my thots...
this is the place i let others know how wonderful life is :)
Alhamdullillah... what a hectic week. well i guess another benefit of being temporarily-jobless is to be able to take care of your family without other things tied up to u.
anyway, it had started from last week, friday, list of endless events to handle. pre-kenduri doa selamat, that was on friday. wah wah, it was quite equivalent to kenduri kawin gak lah to my village, Kampung Bangau Tanjung, Temerloh. that nite, people were cooking the meals for tomorrow's kunduri until 2am, itupun pajeri nenas tak sempat nak keringkan betul2. hahah luckily, my mom woke up early the next day, n do some touch up on the meal. maklumlah, memasing nak tunjuk pandai, terlupa lak tuan rumah nak meal tu macam mana. isk isk. anyway, the kenduri, yup ramai gak orang, siap pasang dua khemah, esp mak njang nyer workers from the factory, silapnya cik datang lambat dgn sony video cam, so dapat time org dah balik.
then guess what, tak pernah2 aku tgk org terus balik lepas tapau lauk, tinggalkan pinggan mangkuk tak basuh. isk isk... dunno what really happen to Kg Bangau's kenduri politic. anyway, it was up to us, the youngsters whom never had any experience of kenduri dishwashing. haha it was very loud n giggling, for me, iba, cilah, mak cik, ifah n my dear sister amira. oklah. beginner. siap wat some organization first. eheheh.
the next day, i was sooo tired. suppose bukannya apa sgt, tapi mmg tak larat bangun, rupanya pms, ahad tu lepak jer. mak balik semula umah mak njang tolong kemas, actually mak njang, pa n eton dah kemas pun, oh ya, pi pun ada. aku lak, kemas umah. ehmmm hari kenduri tu ada anugerah era malamnya, but i dun really fancy that event, as i am not an amidt listener to era, bosanlah radio penuh dgn iklan. just peek a while masa mawi nyanyi n dapat anugerah digi. ehehe, mawi, mawi... ramai benar fanatik awak ni kan?
monday, busy beli barang pulak untuk eton. aduhaiiiii, ni yg nak nyanyi aduh saliha ni. flight rabu 7.30pm sth, n guess what, isnin tu berlambak2 lagi barang2 yang tak terbeli, yg nak bawak ke egypt. eh eh terlupa lak, my lil couzin, farizatul azlah ni, dapat offer sambung study after her kulliyah ke egypt. tapi her uni tak ditetapkan lagi, either, azhar, iskandariah atau satu lagi option, lupa lak. she prefer to do her law degree in iskandariah. i do pray she'll get what she love to do. cita2 dia nak jadi pendakwah bebas. eheh she is a bit like me. her likings, her spirits. and HER LAST MINUTES attitudes! dear Lord. isnin malam tu i gotta spent the nite at hers, umah mak njang lah. tgk keadaan kelam kabut (but she was still maintaing her calm) aku pun turn on her pc n came out with an excel list. aduhaiiiiii.... isk banyak nya barang tak beli lagi ni. nak pack barang pun takleh sebab baju yg nak di bawa pun ada yang baru masuk washing machine gaaa!
so tuesday morning, collect her baju2 n linens yg nak di bawa yg baru kering dari ampaian, then start packing her luggage, lucky bawak satu 30". then ptgnya kuar lagi, pi beli some more dried food, rempah2 penumis, etc etc. hahah nasib baik ler aku pi scotland ari tu tak sampai pun 3 bulan. takdelar brg2 meriah cam tu. then ptg tu, suppose aku ikut balik umah dia, but then, guess what, my evian bottle bocor, basuh lejut my bag, my handphone pun tenggelam dalam air tu, aku pun cancel pelan awal, balik umah. iron my baju everything, n take some nap. legaa. malam tu, baru pi semula umah eton n help her with last packing plus, pack barang2 makanan. tgk2 kitorg hit our target, to finish packing before 11pm, so aku balik Temerloh Jaya lah. tidur umah sendiri, kurang selesa tidur umah org lain dalam keadaan period ni.
the next day, the trip day. bertolak ke klia around 10am sth. biar kuar awal. lagipun convoi 4 kereta, one terrano, three wiras. satu alpha romeo tunggu kat klia. tu baru family eton tu, sampai kat klia, mmg meriah dgn bakal student ke egypt. ramaiiii. gang kulliyah eton around 30 sth, then ada lak student tahfiz, etc etc. siap baca doa ramai2. sejuuuk hati.
cuma satu kekalutan lah, they all ni suppose grouped check in, ustaz nyer tersilap ter pass around the tikets to all 'em, so ramailah yg terpaksa tinggalkan extra luggage (mostly the food stuff) sebab tak cukup quotas. kalau group check in, insyaAllah byk gak lagi barang2 yg boleh masuk. luckily for eton, pak sedara dia kasi idea suh bukak kotak makanan n delegates the stuff into otehr bag yg boleh bawak naik plane, masa tu lah lari2 keliling klia nak cari bag, last2 pi bookstore, beli paperbag 3 biji. tang situlah bukak kotak n sumbat makanan2 dalam paperbag. kesian gak kat eton, sebab for few week, sure amik masa nak sesuaikan dgn makanan kat sana.
apa2pun, everything went ok. dia dah selamat pun kat sana. sehari dua ni connect ngan dia thru sms. dia tak jumpa internet lagi lah tu. alhamdullillah, sorang lagi cucu wan selamat pi oversea. tak sangka gak, cucu2 wan ni tak ramai, tapi skang ni memasing dah panjang kaki merantau. yg best nya skang ni my older couzin, abg khairul, whois well known as abg yo, somewhere kat china, dia amik marine engineering, skang ikut a cargo ship, before end of this year,maybe dia sampai ke egypt, dah cakap awal2 kat eton, dia nak pi jenguk eton kat sana. wah2, tak sempat jumpa kat malaysia dah. :) moga2, masing2 berjaya dan bahagia dalam kehidupan masing2.
as for me, yup, i'm getting cold feet. nak start balik jobhunt. tambah2 lah keadaan mendesak ni. takpe, bawak bertenang. ni one aspect of life gak :)
to eton, belajar baik2 dear. buat yang terbaik. nawaitu lillahi ta'ala :)
Rem September 27, 2005 02:42 AM PDT Bestnya baca entri ni. Terkenang nostalgia lama-lama. Bila orang nak pi berangkat mana-mana, kenduri kat kampung meriah teramat. Memang sampai tak tidur dek nak prepare macam-macam. Sadly, budaya cam ni.. dah tak wujud kat tempat saya, Ranau. Kalau ada kenduri cam gitu, biasanya yang dok sibuk hanya keluarga saja. Tak nampak sangat orang kampung (yang non-family) dok pi tolong. Hmmm.. cerita pasal basuh pinggan tinggalan orang pula.. he he he... saya dah pengalaman berjela-jela pasal tugasan tak rasmi ni. Zaman kanak-kanak dulu la. Sometimes, I wish I have never grown up and things have never changed around me!
kemai September 26, 2005 03:02 PM PDT hi lin ,,,amboi org lain nak p egypt dia plak yg bz sakan ehhe ....sama la i ni pon tgh sibuk job hunting gak ...ntah2 aku tak jadi balik ton depan tahun neh gak balik kot .
