Sejuk....

Lama dah tak blog. Not because tak ada cerita or tak ada masa (laugh!).
Bila jiwa tengah kacau, otak mogok kerja. Hasut jari ambil cuti. Hasut perut, mulut dan lidah buat overtime. Pecat gut dan instinct. Hire fear dan insecurities.
Ada major reshuffling dalam organisasi diri.
Tunggu.

Eat, Prank, Laugh

THE WEDDING - AUNTIE JULS & UNCLE JULS (uncle ker?)

Pepagi dah ke rumah atuk, tolong apa yang patut. Susun kuih, angkat kerusi & susun meja (kes bebudak khemah lambat datang), senduk lauk (berkat untuk tetamu), etc...etc...

Haaii...banyak cerita yang menarik. Scandal, gossip hangat, terjah, pengakuan etc..etc...tapiii.... takleh kongsi. Rahsia kerajaan gittew... : )

Besides, aku kat rumah atuk pun kejap jer, habis lunch hubby & I had to make our move, balik rumah and bersiap for company dinner pulak. Would love to stay longer, tapi kalau tak pergi dinner kena denda, fotong gaji, satu kapla RM200.00, 2 kapla RM 400.00. Laha kaan!!

Dinie, as usual, di 'abandon' kan di kampung. Ado dio kesah? Nan ado! Mak aku cerita, Dinie menyanyi karaoke tak hengat dunia. Sapu bersih, 4 songs in a row! In my defense, I tak pernah ajar dia berkaraoke lagak diva Hollywood. Ini semua penyakit keturunan. Genetically inherited disease. Sungguh! (exhibit A below)

Alhamdulillah...dengarnya semua berjalan lancar. Of course, the akad, the wedding reception and all that jazz, was just the beginning, tip of the iceberg darling. To stay married & sane & menunaikan janji2x manismu dihadapan tok kadi, well, another story all together. Anywhoooo.... tahniah Puan, semoga berbahagia.



Saya, sebagai anak saudara yang tertua, mewakili semua anak2x saudara yang lain (shameless!) mendoakan yang terbaik buat Puan, dunia dan akhirat.

THE DINNER - COMPANY'S 50TH ANNIVERSARY

Dari kampung, terus balik rumah dulu. Badan melekit dengan peluh, harus mandi.

Around 2pm, went down to the salon to do my hair. Lucky lucky me! May, the salon owner, sangat free dan sangat gumbira nak setkan rambut aku.

Imagine this, 1 head 3 pair of hands! kena gentel baeekk punyerrr.... I mean my hair, of course!

1 hour later, siap.

Went back home, relax jap, calling kengkawan check on their status, tengok tv, nak tengok laki, dia tidur. Around 4pm baru nak start make-up. Siap, kejut Dato'H suruh dia pulak bersiap.

We arrived at the hotel around 6.15pm. This year, semua staff from every region in Malaysia, including Sabah & Sarawak, berkumpul in one place for the dinner. You can only imagine the crowd. Ramai giler. Outstation staff + partner / spouse, stayed in Sunway Tower Hotel. Seronokla kaann...tak payah drive, carik parking, agak2 boring bleh naik bilik....jeles.

So, we registered & claimed our door gift. Everyone received a portable DVD and Osim massage thingy. Not bad.

To sum up the evening: Food - average. Performance - average, leaning on to boredom. Friends: best in the world!

Betrayal can only happen if you love - John Le Carre

When You Come

When you come to me, unbidden,
Beckoning me
To long-ago rooms,
Where memories lie.

Offering me, as to a child, an attic,
Gatherings of days too few.
Baubles of stolen kisses.
Trinkets of borrowed loves.
Trunks of secret words,

I CRY.

-Maya Angelou-

Pengawas ke Pemawas??

Dinie berimej baru!

'All that we see or seem, is but a dream within a dream' - Edgar Allan Poe

I had the weirdest dream.
I was surrounded by familiar faces.
We were having a sumptuous meal, a feast.
Nothing weird about that.
The aroma of the delicious food fills my nostril.
Constant stream of food and drink coming our way, I can barely see the table top.
We were eating, drinking, laughing. I had the best time of my life.

Then, as if on cue, one by one, people started to leave.

I on the other hand still busy eating my heart out!
Not enough, no, still hungry, more food!
Seems like whatever I put in my mouth never reach my stomach. It went right out of me...I don't know, the food just poof..gone!
Still hungry!
Eat, eat eat!

In the end, everybody left.
I was all alone.
Still eating.
And crying.

Then I woke up.
Cursing to myself.

I swear I will never ever watch The Biggest Loser Asia ever again! Never!



'The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanone by onectum of the soul, which opens to that primeval cosmic night that was soul long before there was conscious ego and will be soul far beyond what a conscious ego could ever reach.' - Carl Jung

Thanks to Yen, I fell head over heel with this poem.

AKU MAHU BERKATA

Aku hilang kata
lebat tuduh basahku seluruh
kenapa digugah tiang percaya?

Ke manalah makna
prasangka membanjir
kasih tercicir

Di rakit rasa
hanyutku lara
di renyai reda
kau menagih makna
tenanglah minda
aku mahu bicara

“Aku
inilah aku yang dulu
tertambat aku di jeti cinta tua
lumut kasih tak kukikis
aku masih di perahu setia
pantang bocor takkan hancur
jika robek jua lantai mesra
jangan kau selamatkan aku lagi
jangan…”
