update raya...

Salam.

Hi uols..hellow...

Salam Syawal, salam lebaran, salam kemerdekaan! :)

how's your syawal so far? how's the merdeka celebration?
meriah takk??

this year's raya celebration is so far fun!
went here and there. all the siblings are here, meeting relatives and so much else!

btw, this morning, i went to the kitchen,
greeting good morning to everyone, to mom, dad n my bro.
but suddenly, i heard my dad said, "makan, Ita"...
sentap uols..terjatuh lemang ditanganku gitewww..haha
hmmmm, daddy didnt recognize me... :(..
yes, they sometimes were confused between me n my sis.
we are about the same size (ok, tipooo...she's slimmer than me) and height, and sometimes our voice sounds similar.
and my dad likes to pat my shoulders.
with my sis around, he must double check before patting 'my' shoulders..lol.

back to hari raya!

what's the most thrilling stuff during hari raya??
balik kampung!

why?
did many things with cousins and siblings,
listened to many untold stories,
meeting unfamiliar true blood faces.

downside?
no more receiving duit raya!!

******

yes, hari raya with family n relatives was awesome.
did a little shopping with my bro n sis a day before raya.
carik tudung in the crowded mall..
sesak uols, like itulah satu2nya mall di dunia iniiii...

and then, main mercun bunga api with relatives at kampung...
gila penakut aku nak pasang api kat sumbu..
pas pasang terus blah..
padahal api tak kena pun sumbu.
last2, bunga api jugak aku carik!
aman je...
***********
so when cousins, relatives and family members were together,
a lot of stories came out...
and surprisingly,
i just knew that i actually had this 'baba nyonya' blood from my great grandma, mother's side.
my moyang's father is from baba nyonya's descendant.
no wonder.... my mom n my brothers have kinda slanting eyes..




i just knew that this house is nearly 200 years old...
rumah pusaka nenek moyang...

before this, we didnt really went back here coz my late grandparents live with us, with my aunties.
so everytime it was raya, we went to KL..
it was recently that we rebuilt and renovated here and there so that we could reminisce the memories.
feel the kampung environment, where my mother used to live and play here...
where my dad n mom got married.. and so on!

the compound.

lomang prepared by my cousin...


unfamiliar true blood faces


nih lagik satu kes yang setahun sekali jumpa...
bila sedara mara sampai, baru sibuk tanya, "mak, nak panggil apa?" ,   "mak, yang hensem tuh sape?",  "mak yang ..." blabla..
baru lah nak kenal sedara mara bagai kannn...
feel kinda weird when i see lots of girls in the house.
like meriah uols! hehe
satu family, 4 girls...
sorang keluar, semua keluar..haha.
macam best pulak... ;p 

and... i found similarity between Tok Chik's face with my lil bro.
tok chik is my late grandma's brother.
mom said that tok chik is a quiet man, like my lil brother..
and his smile is just like my late grandma's smile.

I also met with my cousin, whom i havent met since he was 11.
after puberty took place, of course everything changed!
dulu, nakal ya ampunnnnnn... kau rasa keje die nih carik gaduh je kann..
cuma sebab die budak je ko tak balas balik kannn...
skang nih, kalau dah form 4 pun duk lasak2 lagik..
ko memang lah kannn...
and his siblings, meaning my nephew lah,
6 boys...all boys. mana tak pening wehhhh...
tak duduk diam semua hero-hero nya..
I asked,  "aliff ada girlfriend tak??"
"mana ada girlfriend, muka hensem macam nih sapalah yang nakk"
ok ok....muka HANDSOME macam nih, sapalah yang nak...
7 years old uolsss..haha
btw, dengan diorang, I still bahasakan myself 'kak sara' uols..haha
memang feeling2 kak nita, though pangkat aunty dah kannnn.... :p


orite lah,
gotta stop now,
dodol kat luar tuh kena kacau,
mana ketupat nak kena rebus third round pulak kannn...
dengan wartawan bertanya yang nih dah ada calon skandal belum lagikk kann
i memang busy lahhhh...
busy busy body nih..
:p


Selamat Hari Raya,
Maaf Zahir Batin,
Selamat Merdeka Raya too!

xoxo! :)
