Cleanin out the attics....

Hahaue finally put her foot down on the issue of packing and cleaning up my old stuff... Somehow it doesn't look xciting at all... I lost most of my stuff when Ottosan  accidently burn my box away... But there is somethings left... Firtsly i found my diaries since i was 6..  I had a good laugh at it.. My worldview during those days revolves around magical creatures and cartoons... Honestly... Reading ur old diaries shows how you personally evolve.. From the sniffling ponytailed girl to a hot tempered chatering woman... As i dug deeper into the box.. I found my passion which is writing... I found my first short story at the age of 6... On how i was abducted by aliens... Later i found a chapter on my unfinish romance novel.... And other stories that were scribbled on any paper...  I found and autogaraph parchment of mytown and ash teeth.....

The pink Gypsy Caravan.

i wouldn't mind owning this..

Swoosshhhh... Swoossshhh.. there goes the cobweb.. huff.... and pufff.. there goes the dust. Finally, the blog is cleaned and I'm finaly connected to the wondrous world of the internet.

Lately, I have come to acquire the life of a gypsy... i realize somehow i have manage to become a gypsy twice in my lifetime (till now). My childhood dream has been fulfilled. 

The mystical and wonderful life of a gypsy has always fascinated me.. They travel all over the place and lead a carefree life... but trust me being a a Gypsy in this modern world is no longer appealing... you are no longer surrounded by the lush tree's... no longer can you lead a carefree life as everything in this era comes with a price.

The modern life of gypsy, is coined into a newer term.... "Minimalist"... read an article on this a while ago and i don't think this will be a long term phase for me. Mind you, I did not submit to this lifestyle willingly but was force by circumstances, fate and people that you can never trust.. 

It has it pro's and con's but trust me when you can never find a place to call your own... you will forsake the minimalist life and work hard to acquire that space... and that is what I'm trying to achieve now...

I can no longer think straight... wanna hear the ceramah by ustaz kazim... about the HAjj (pilgrimage)... :) owh i'll be contented to own this kind of space.

Life is a whirlwind for the most of us.... Our daily life have been consume with our work and other obligation that we tend to forget to stop and ponder the journey of are life... what has made us become what we are today.

Being married and a career women has led me to the life where i swear i would never allowed myself to lead. I have became selfish and self-centered. I no longer allocated my time to my love ones. The life I lead has always been about me and me only.

During this Barakah month of Ramadan, it came to me one day, that I should take this opportunity to start and mingle back with those people that are dear to my heart. How long has it been since i met and spend time with my cousin 'Pijah Odi' and 'Amai'.. the Rosli's sibling that i shared my childhood with, that have never been apart, we were glued for most of our childhood life enjoying the vast adventure that we had in our 'Kampung'. The magical place for any child to grow up.

It wasn't a  plan meeting... destiny brought us together if i may say so myself. This is how it all started:-

After losing tok bee early this year, i realize that life is to short for me to be a workaholic... I felt guilty at the thought that i never spend much of my quality time with my late grandmother... i have been so engross in my life that i just thought she will be there forever. Due to my guilt and not meeting my other grandma (tok Asmah) for quite a long time... i have decided to spend a week with her.. to strengthen the bond that nearly fade. Tok was living with Hafizah and Akmal so I figured its like killing two birds with one stone :)

So yesterday Hafizah had a gathering with her friends... but they decided to cancel it at the last minute. With her being disappointed and me meeting hasinah over for iftar, we decided that we should go and bukak puasa all of us together.....

When we reach KLCC, told Hafizah that i'm gonna spend time with the books at Kinokuniya and let the happy couple spend some time together. After browsing and contemplating i went to pay for the books, that is when i realize to my horror that i have left my wallet and ave 50 cent only in my bag... and yes it could be considered as one of the most embarrassing moments of my life. Ironically Ash still hasn't arrive with her husband to save me.

So then i call up akmal, wondering whether he'll be coming for the bukak puasa??? and since he now that i have left my wallet he decided to join us.... and save me by bringing my wallet :)

Later after our Maghrib prayers... the 5 of us.. (Akmal and his friend not included sbb dia nak balik smayang terawikh) so off we went to Starbuck to have a cuppa....

And it was then on..... we talked and laugh as we did when we were 8,7, and 5. We laugh and talk... putting aside our differences... there were so many topics that were covered during the session.... From tok som... Cikgu mengaji paling garang "awak ingat lagi tak macam mana tok som nanti bagi kita gan rotan panjang pasai dok gelak masa mengaji" and "awak ingat lagi tak sigheh (sirih) and gigi maih(emas) dia"...

And there was the Market trip conversation "awak ingat tak macam mana anjing oren yang suka hambat kita bila pi markeet dulu (owh org penang kata pasar---markeet)" and "Bangun pagi-pagi buta beli puti kat ama puri" and "awak ingat tak coin purse satu 20 kupang tue"

And there was the conversation on our toys "best gilaa.... guling-guling dalam kotak turut gon (a cemented hilly slope)" "tue la... yang tue kak taty pnya idea" and "awak ingat dak bila paip pecah kat depan rumah rozal and kita nanti pi buat tue macm swimming pool" "laaa awak ingat macm mana kita kna rotan gan mak bila kita terjon dalam kolah"

i'm gonna miss those moment and thank you guys for making my day.  

Akmal and frens

since were all from penang---> we went to have Penang food

Char Kuey Teow was the main dish including prawn me :)

talk till our hearts content with a cuppa

me, Ash and Faikis (her husband)

trying to brainwash Hafizah to become a die hard coffee addict like me... (^-^)

the only guy standing there is hafizah beu... nasi minyak will be sooner than we think.

my obsession at the moment is NAVY  BLUE

From a 10 ringgit shirt..

Ever since i was a kid, i was never the kind of person to be deluded by brands... Yes i love the high end fashion but it was never in my interest to own one... My choice in material things has always been about the quality rather than the brands itself..

There are times in my life when i buy some pieces of expensive clothing.. It was never and impulse buy.. But a full research was done... Will i often wear it??? Is it durable enough??? Is it comfortable??? Then i would sleep on it... If i still dream about having them... Then i would buy them..

Never in my life have i ever used any1 Else's money to buy anything.. My mom thought me that if u wanna own something... U have to work hard for it...then u shall cherish it..

I don't understand why it bugs me so much.. (I'm blaming the bloody weather for being so hot ) some1 just post a comment on one of my post... And ask me how can i afford some of the stuff i have.. Now that is just plain rude don't ya think???

What makes u have the right to say or even to decide what i can afford and what i could not afford... It is the basis of human rights that human have every rights to acquire the necessity that they need in their daily living..

i work hard to get what i want.. And that is what drives me to be successful... I buy things base on my needs and base on my own capacity to acquire them.. I don't need any tom, dick or harry to point me the guidelines on what i can own and what i could not... U have no right to question me... I wasn't spoon fed like you... And i don't just laze around in the house waiting for the world to be better...

Yes... I don't come from a rich family... And yes I'm not married to a rich husband... But do i still have to buy a 10 ringgit shirt when i can afford a 100 ringgit shirt??? I know where i came from... It made me what i am today... And yes i still remember the years when i own only a pair of cargo pants and 3 shirt of rm 10 each.. Do i resent it??? No... I don't.. And yes i still wear cheap clothes that i bought at a bundle shop that cost 4 ringgit each... I'm not gonna tell you which one... U figure out yourself..

BERSIH!!! BERSIH!!! BERSIH????

I have always refrain myself from posting any political views on the blog as i have a strong perception of everyone is entitle to their own perception and interpretation of an ideology...
Is BERSIH an ideology?? In some form we can call it an ideology as it is quite unattainable in the near future...
I have always been politically neutral to the extend people percieve me as apolitical... How can a political science student be apolitical just because she refrain herself from joining any political party... I belive political parties are friends with benefits... We joined a political party that caters to our interest rather than keeping into mind the common interest it uphold.. Thus, i prefer to keep my friend with benefit confidential...
Where was i???? Right.. BERSIH... I understand that this certain group call for a transparency and all those democratic crap (excuse my language) in the next general election.. There are two points why i do not agree with the sitiuation..
Firstly the rally has become a hindrance to the people of malaysia when the enforcement decided control the crowd by preventing any1 from entering KL.. This cause a massive jams which is frustrating!!!
Secondly when it comes to mass gathering, one has to bear in mind that there is no such thing as crowd control... The sentiment of of the masses is like a cahin reaction whereby a person starts shouting and others will follow.. They are easily agitated by the rally speech and action of other members... And this theory have been proven by sociologist ( i learned them in my sociology of political behaviour).... And this leaves me with a less desireable outlook on BERSIH.
In order to make things worse, the UMNO YOUTH and PERKASA have decided to hop on the bandwagon but instead of rallying they are condeming and call for a confrantation... Now instead of the walk of democracy, it has become the walk of politics and has been highly politacise by the media...
So due to this unruly educated man and women, the citizen of Malaysia has been put into a situation that is very similiar to a Darurat... But they call it lockdown...
I'm to sleepy to continue.... Damn!!!
