Blast From the Past - The Series (Episode 1)

I just bought a 3-in-1 printer (printer, scanner,copier) at the recent PCFair. So guys, get ready to be flashed with images yg 'hena' dari zaman kegemilangan....

To start with, mari mengimbas kenangan lama dengan tajuk 'Aku dan bola'. Aku t'tinggal 1 gambar yg kita pose ramai2 kat tengah2 concourse kolej petronas di malam buta berlatar belakangkan keter kancil PeeDeeX875 dan kita bergaya dengan segala aksesori yg dicilok dari mamat2 penyokong selangor. Gambar tu blur sket.

Perlu dihighlight :

• Operasi tukar baju dalam keter, belakang stadium.
• Acara mengorat dan mengendeng aksesori spt muffler, bendera dan topi Bob Marley dari penyokong Selangor
• Dd and Eline adalah penyokong Perlis dengan baju biru kuning (che mah x ikut hangpa kan?). So mana bleh dok skali ngan geng merah kuning.
• Penyokong Selangor kena kuar ikut Grand Stand walaupun masuk ikut gate biasa sbb penyokong perlis marah depa kalah, abang ala2 komando FRU gitu iring tau !!
• Aksi2 hena ini berlaku di kedai pokok buluh on the way nak balik kampus, lepas tgk game ye..
• Gabra campur hampeh pikir camana nak tackle pak guard sbb balik lps midnight, dah la penuh satu keter
• Selangor menang ye, laki aku rush balik KL tgk final game kat Shah Alam.

Selain itu sila perhatikan :

• Tudung (Eline, aku tau hang mesti t'tanya2 aku simpan lagi x tudung ala2 camtu hahaha..x dak dah, tanya Man)
• Kamera Vivitar yang menggunakan felem
• Wane lipstick

So kengkawan, I know what u did last time on 13 December 1997

Tapikan seblom game kat atas tu, aku ngan Eline pernah gak layan balaks cun kat FIFA Youth Cup 1997. Sempat la tgk Kewell yg blom glamer lagiks time tu. Ramai gak star2 EPL skrg yg ada masa tuh tp aku apsal ntah aku stuck ngan nama dia!! Maybe sebab aku concentrate game dia kot, lagipun Kangar cuma host game for Group ni je.

Grand Stand ye kengkawan, 25 hengget sajor

Dah penajanyer Coca Cola, kembung aku nak perabih..laki aku tukang amek gambau. Kat belakang kitorang tu senior, sure ada yg korang kenal kan ?

DD, amacam ? Vivitar tu hang punya ka, klu ye sure ada gambar lain, sila la 'You complete me'.

Trip Thru The Trunk 'T'Road

Hehehe nak sangat rhyme ngan huruf 'T'. Seblom aku lopa meh aku aku blog citer ni dulu walaupun yg lain2 melambak lagiks...

Masa geng2 kurik kendi UUM bernostalgia kat Sint0k nun, aku ngan anak2 aku berhoya2 di Redang 16 -18 Aug 2008. Right after that baru balik umah mak aku sbb on 20th ada kenduri. Teruk kan...gi holiday dulu pastu baru balik umah mak hehe. This entry is not about the hoya2 nor the kenduri but specifically about our 1st time zooming thru Gua Musang route back to KL.

Since my hometown is actually closer to KB than KT, people asked why we always chose Kuantan-Bkt.Besi-K.Berang-Setiu route instead of Gua Musang. 1st and foremost because my mom doesn't like it, be it by car or bus, all her kids are sort of 'banned' from using the road due to the infamous road fatalities happened there. 2ndly, mmm ntahla...x t'bukak hati gamaknya hahaha. So there we go..

Lepas b'hempas pulas, sweating all over, we left the kenduri around 4pm and berbekalkan peta sempoi abah, we made it. The road leading to Gua Musang is good especially right after Machang. But right after that,it's deja-vu, the feeling was like when we roughed thru the Maran-Temerloh route before the birth of LPT. We safely parked our car in the porch around 12.30midnight. Including almost 2-hrs break for solat 3-in-1+ soru.

So the verdict : definitely NOT FOR US though it saves us about 50km and rm19++ (toll LPT).

Why ?

• It's not healthy for a driver to be flashed with that red AWAS signboard every 100-200m (it's either AWAS kawasan kemalangan or AWAS selekoh merbahaya). Lagilah x healthy kepada co-pilot yg ala2 kebas kaki tekan imaginary-brake.


• At one point aku t'bayang orang kuning DIGI sbb sepanjang jalan asik arrow kuning itam tuh, klu x kiri, kanan, klu x besar kecik.


• Not for a weak stomach like my son who just had maggi soup and full glass of teh tarik, carik nahas


• It's even more stressful to fight with sooooooooo many lori balaks and 24-wheelers, imagine having to snail behind trailers going uphill bcoz there are no way to overtake due to the streaming traffic from the other side. . Ada 1 time we have to overtake like 6 lori balaks, 1 or 2 at a time. Fehhh...Mau kontot jari laki aku dok bagi signal, 5 to10 minutes apart


• It's hard to find a place to do mandi-solat-makan in one shot the R&R way. It's crucial, because baby will poop when they feel like pooping and mommy will definitely need her shower to change the stinky baju kurung. Mcm kena ganja aku dok memangku Hannah the smelly poopie baby till we can find a suitable place to stop.


• Inconsiderate drivers who overtook heavy vehicles and expected the incoming traffic to make way for them. We had lots of headlight's flashing moments - a sign for us to give way...$%#%^%

All that made a very stressful trip back home (as if traveling with 3 kids is not stressful enuff!!) So this route is off our radar for now until God knows.
But there's 1 time, Babah was touched when Adan said 'baik kita naik bas, babah pun tak penat...'

So aku salute la sesape yg boleh survive and frequent the route. I would rather pay the toll and brave extra KMs as long as we can sail smoothly and the kids can have their every few hours break that we always practice when we travel.

Update : Hubby's friend said that we hit the road at the wrong time. But I think that won't change our decision hehe

Very Delayed Wedding Entry Part 3

The next day, we did as planned. Melenggang kangkung (not me though). Me and Hannah was like a Siamese-twin, attached at the waist.

We pink-ed and they purple-d the day…

Enjoy…

One for the family


Aku menyebok ngan mat2 SLR


Nak kena kak ipaq ni bisik2 baru nak senyum


Candid masa mak andam tgh bagi arahan


Kek itu sungguh lawoooo..

Tak sah kalau takde acara re-union kan ? Geng2 lama UUM, Rohing and Hadi Data menempel sama, kat sini ngan bapak mertoa ku.

Later we brought our stretchable-tummies to Tg. Lumpur for a seafood fiesta. A perfect closure for a day that was full of chaos happiness, penat-ness and lega-ness.

Setan Merah Sesat

In the sea of BLUES…

But being a genius devil he is, he put on disguise and marched on as one zesty Niederländer.

'It was a saving-face-kind-of-match' he commented. Told ya, he's a devil (but he does not wear any Prada, ok )

Note : And.... he ‘forgot’ to extend the invitation to his other-half. That's how devil-ish he can be.

Very Delayed Wedding Entry Part 1

Ntah2 pengantinnya dah berisi pon. hehe It’s almost 2 months since we had the wedding for my BIL. I procrastinated and lost the zest to blog about it. Looking at the amount of pix taken during the period, it scares the sh%t out of me and my mind decided to skip that one moment. Until now…

This is one of the biggest event in our family, kena la blog kan…hehe I’ll do it in few parts

30 May 2008 – Majlis Bertunang dan Akad Nikah (Kuantan)
31 May 2008 – Kenduri di Kuantan (Sebelah Perantin Pompuan)
8 Jun 2008 – Kenduri di Gombak (Sebelah Perantin Lelaki)

29 May 2008
Aku masih tonggang langgang…hahaha hantaran x siap lagi (as confessed to Ezzah). Memang gubra tapi as usual, I can produce better results when working on 11th hour. Bunga2 tu is the bunga dulang, petang tu la baru nak assemble….

30 May 2008
Konvoi ke Kuantan, we rented a place called Bailey’s Court, a 4-storeys apartment building. Mula2 sampai cam x best jek tengok surrounding, but later when we entered the room…Quite impressed with the place, the rooms are much better than Ser1 Malaysia. We booked 2 units of the 3-rooms apartment with cooking facilities (but no pots & pans). So if you feel like cooking, just hop to the downstairs’ grocer. They have everything u need for you temp kitchen. The ‘elders’ shared 1 apartment while us the young guns occupied the upper level unit.

According to plan, we’ll start off with majlis bertunang and proceed with akad. All the hantarans will be exchanged that very same night, so that we can melenggang kangkung during the kenduri, next day. Rush gila sbb majlis should start around 8.15pm, ada yang solat dulu and me nak siapkan the kids, make sure hantaran ready and all. The fact that the apartment is at the other sides of pekan Kontan made it more challenging.

We reached the bride’s place slightly late only to find out that we had all the hantarans…but no dulang !!! kehkehkeh…dulang dalam keter perantin yg tinggal kat apartment. Perantin naik Merc, sudah lopa sama itu dulang. Totally slipped my mind especially when people were like lekaih! lekaih! without considering that I have 3 kids in tow, hantaran to count and other things that others don’t give a damn. So I went to my BIL’s most important event au naturel, no makeup in sight. Sib baik bakal mak mentuanya cekap gitu..dpt la few extra dulangs enuff for majlis bertunang. We started off with majlis bertunang, which luckily do not require the groom. Hubby blazed off (with soon-to-be-hitched-brother, no less) to pick up the left-behind-dulangs. Poor dulangs…

Rombongan meminang

Tunang orang for 1 hour

Adik iparku sudah besar...dub dab dub dab

My own HERMES

Tak caya ? betul...HERMES.. tengok ni

I’ve never knew that paper folding can be THAT therapeutic. No wonder Japanese calls origami as an art.

That will happen when you have too much too handle on your plate.
