MasterChef Malaysia La Kan....

I antara peminat setia masterchef Malaysia yang sedang keudaraan sekarang ini. I tak pernah miss dari episode pertama (except yang 5 mins) until now. Dari mula-mula bersiaran lagi I dah suka, although ramai yang kutuk-kutuk program nie. Pada I best apa, although tidak mencapai standard I or should I say masih di tahap tidak memuaskan when in comes to the challenge when they were supposed to cook something but still given a resepi yang diberi. Although (banyaknya guna perkataan although) sukatan tak diberi but still bahan-bahan diberi dalam resepi which is unfair when compared to the US punya version. I think as someone who has a passion in cooking, their taste palate should know better and automatically dah boleh tau whats is the ingredients in the dish/meal yang disediakan. Oh yeah, the kitchen was impressive to me and I love that, the jury are very particular about the kebersihan and how they prepared their food.

I already have a clear favourites, I support budak-budak muda such as Danial, Amir and Saiful. Being that young and still managed to produce a good quality of food is a talent and gifted to me. As for yang dah berusia tu, I guess they learn from experienced. I tidak menidakkan kebolehan yang dah berumur itu and I know the more experienced the better they can be and offcourse talent is playing a big role in it. But I still go for the younger generation. Imagine… 10 years from now, people like Danial or Amir will be more and excellent or should I say brilliant chef. I can’t wait to see them during that time, kalau I hidup lagi la. I just hope jangan la dorang ni jadi penagih dadah, putar alam or tukang kongkek atau kena kongkek dengan perempuan atau lelaki kan. But pada I yang membuatkan cerita nie menarik was because all of them came from a different background and also kerja. But yet the managed to cook some of the most amazing food around.

Ok part yang seterusnya, I nak kutuk pasal contestants pulak. Here’s the thing, this is a competition. Yang korang nangis-nangis bila orang tu kena eliminated, apahal? Nak nangis boleh but berpada la kan, especially si Emelda tu and also some of the contestant. Sorry Em, if you read this. I love you girl. Siap kena guna inhaler lagi adeihh. I know you feeling-feeling sebab they are your good and close friend but like I said, please don’t deviate yourself from the real reason why you masuk masterchef nie, it is because you want to win. That’s all.. fullstop! Korang patut suka kalau your competitor tu dah blah. Tak payah nak buat kisah sedih or classic black and white movie. I don’t know, maybe I’m the coldhearted kinda person or should I say heartless?? Err..sapa la yang selalu cari tissue paper bila tengok movie yang merana-rana (pointing at myself hehe…). But then again maybe the situation was so tense that they tend to be emotional?

Ok next, still nak kutuk contestant nie. First and foremost don’t try to be the saviour or the one that took the blame for other people or everybody. Tak payah nak gentlemen-gentlemen or kekonon honest nak tunjuk “hero”. Why do you want to put yourself in a chopping block or danger. The best thing is senyap aje unless jury tu call your name and told you about your mistake, otherwise senyap je la. Don’t call the unnecessary attention to yourself. Part nie memang buat I betul-betul menyampah. I sungguh-sungguh meluat tau. I don’t know why la korang macam tu, maybe typical Malaysian punya character/attitude ke or maybe I yang selfish ke... nevertherless..I stand by with my view and believe. Everyone for him or herself.

Ok next about the jury. Dalam tiga jury kat situ paling I suka sekali offcourse Papa Joe. He is my favourites. Reason? Because dia sangat cool, cara dia bercakap memang macam hero ala-ala smooth talker and grandfatherly. He is such a calm person. I wish he was my father or my grandpa or even my uncle. And the way he dress up, sungguh kemas dan berkarisma. Cara dia berkerja dan ketelitiannya itu, sungguh hebat. I memang respect Papa Joe. He is someone that I look up. Chef Zubir..hmm.. Chef Zubir, what can I say about Chef Zubir. He’s ok but I don’t like the way he talk or when explaining to the contestant. Telinga I sakit la, dia cakap dengan gaya or tone yang menekan and sometime, he makes them like they are from a special school, you get what I mean, cakap slow-slow macam guru besar? Macam cakap dengan murid-murid tadika pun yea jugak. Gaya classic pun ada jugak. Chef Riz..hmm.. I don’t know whose his fashion consultant. I just can’t believe that he or Astro Ria would let him get away with that style. I wish someone would tell him or what kind of a fashion statement did he try to make? And I wish I jadi dia punya fashion consultant and I’m pretty sure I know how to dress him up. But I suka cara penyampaian or cara dia bercakap. He is as cool and smart as Papa Joe. He knows what he’s talking about and knows his food well. He is one of my favourite too. But, ada but jugak… the recent event sungguh memalukan and I siap berdebat hebat dengan husband I pasal kes tu.

I feel like Chef Riz has let me down in a way. I bukan main lagi mempertahankan dia and I can’t believe that he’s actually go that far and sanggup lagi mempertahankan his cv’s and statement before that. I cakap kat husband I, he is not that stupid to lie over something serious like this, husband I cakap pulak well.. he is, because why would the people kat tempat dia berkerja kat NY denied his claim. I cakap maybe orang dengki kat dia and tengok la he even defend his claim. Husband I cakap, people do anything to lie to get what they want. I cakap we’ll see what his father has to say tomorrow (we argued two nights ago sampai tidur dekat pukul 2.00am berdebat pasal kes tu, dengan mata pejam-pejam atas katil, lampu dah tutup masa tu, nak tidurkan). I siap pointed my finger to my husband, I cakap lagi, whatever it is, I put myself in Chef Riz’s shoes and that he has the same thinking or principal like I do..and I believe him. And look where did it get me? Finally, dia mengaku and his dad pun tak support what he had done. Didn’t he know that once he’s a well known figure, people will try to dig (mostly the bad stuff) everything about him? Especially orang-orang yang dengki kat dia or someone close to him. That is why, it is best to come up clean rather than try to defend (at first) or that don’t lie or cheat if you know that you are going to be famous or that having someone famous in your family.

Balik kerja petang semalam, I read Chef Wan’s fb statement to my husband. He look at me, smile and said.. betul tak dia cakap. I kata yea yea.. sambil menjeling tajam kat dia. I was so disappointed at Chef Riz nie but I still support him and I don’t hate him at all in fact I felt sorry for him, mesti embarrassed besar and sure ada yang make fun of him. I hope he or anybody yang nak famous or tengah famous, terus terang aje kalau orang tanya about your past or benda-benda sensitive or what have you done before or don’t try to defend it, if it is a lie. He is just a human being, like you and me. We make/made mistake or make a wrong judgement everynow and then. We learned from it and hope we wouldn’t do the same mistake again. But if we do, we pick ourself up and Chef Riz, held your head high and don’t worry what other people think of you. If they want to say something nasty to or about you, let them be. That is their issue not you. My thought of you before and after the “incident” never change or waiver. As far as I’m concern and many more people out there, we still on your side all through the way. Let’s move on Chef Riz.

Lastly, on the food, tengok contestant nie masak, terus bersemangat I nak try resepi-resepi dorang and kejap-kejap telan air liur je. Tak lama lagi ada la I start nak hias-hias makanan bagai wakaka… Tapikan best la dorang masak, so creative and food presentation wise, menarik. I salute you guys. And I wish I jadi food taster/tester kat situ, kira represent the people la kan.. but this kakak tak boleh la makan makanan yang pedas and masam. Demand la pulak wakaka… Oh yeah, before I forget to mention, I suka la dorang nie semua cakap bahasa melayu tak kira cina ke india, macam sedap je. Sungguh menarik di dengar dan bahasa yang digunakan kadang-kadang ala-ala puitis. So anyway, good luck to all of you that are still in the show..ahak!

Ke Muzium Negara

Last month, this pasangan season went to our National Museum. Since we haven’t had anything to eat from the morning, we decided to have our lunch in that place. At first, we thought we’re gonna have our lunch outside, hati sudah tak sedap sebab mesti panas and berpeluh but thanks God, there is an air condition section kat dalam. The food was not bad but quite pricey. Minuman pun mahal. I told my husband, mesti sebab the rent is expensive, husband I kata tak ada la sebab kerajaan punya, takan nak charge rent mahal.

So anyway, this is not the first time that I went to our National Museum. The first time was when I first came her with my then BF (now husband ler), when he wants to introduce me to his family. The second time was when I brought my sister and my cute darling niece Abby. After that, we didn’t go there for about 15 years, until now. Oh yeah, sebelum both of us ke situ, ada acara perdebatan la kan.. dia kata entry ticket is RM20.00. I kata mana ada, government tak charge mahal and it is for public. Dengan penuh confident beliau cuba mematahkan hujah I. I suruh dia call pihak muzium, call a few times but nobody seems to be working or keluar lunch. Next day tu, he went to buy the ticket, I went around and snap snap kat luar. When he came over, I tanya, berapa harga ticket.. dengan tersipu-sipu malu si comel itu cakap RM2.. you should see his face and the smile penuh belagak kat muka I.. ehehehe..

Masuk aje kat muzium nie, si pengomel dah complaint kata tempat kecik la, etc.. I cakap, they didn’t plan it when they first built it, maybe tanah/space limited and maybe they didn’t realised how important it was for the future generation, maybe, maybe ahh this is just my point of view. Pepandai la I bagi reason kan. Anyway, I love our museum or any museum in the world.. I suka pegi.. I don’t know why. Si pegomel I nie asyik tak puas hati dengan semua benda, sometime I wonder why is he so unhappy over something as remeh as this? He wouldn’t be enjoy anything if he kept on see things in a negative way kan? But dia tak pernah complaint pasal I or whatever I do. Complaint la I kalau berani.. kalau rasa ilmu ketahanan diri serta mental tu kuat wakaka…

Like I said, I love going to any museum and I was so happy beside I need to go back to my photography world that I’ve neglected for such a long time.. So sibuk la I snap gambar sana sini and si kekasih I itu pun sibuk ler nak snap gambar I. Hey, a photographer also needs her pictures to be taken in action.. hehe..

I was kind of worried that the pictures that I took wouldn’t come out well due to the lighting beside I didn’t play with it for quite sometime but when I uploaded it, I was surprised that it turned out to look well and in fact beyond my expectation. I’m not saying that I’m satisfied with my work, I’m not, but I felt relieved as I have no hope that it would look that good. Ok enough about me memuji diri sendiri ini ehek… So sampai kat section sang pengkhianat komunis, I cakap kat husband I dengan penuh berkobar-kobar betapa hinanya perangai dorang nie, husband I senyum-senyum je kat I. Well..apa nak buat semangat patriotic I sungguh membara di dalam jiwa raga ini although I was not born during the komunis era kan. It is good that the muzium and the government instill this thing to the new generation because I tengok kebanyakkan generasi muda sekarang nie tak ada atau kurang semangat nasionalisme nya. Wah, as usual mesti I emo kan, kalau bab-bab tentang negara I yang tercinta atau bahasa manjanya terchenta ini..

After that we went to another section of the building, pameran khas pasal kapal karam punya peninggalan. Ingatkan free, rupa-rupanya kena bayar RM3. As for pelancong luar, dorang kena bayar RM8. Ingatkan besar, masuk je.. alahai macam dewan sekolah tadika je… kecik tau. Dalam hati I cakap, tak apa la as long as isinya menarik. But it was kinda disappointed sebab asyik-asyik pinggan mangkuk yang pecah-pecah je banyak. Not much or many to see… I was not happy about it.. Husband I kata, with this kind of exhibition patutnya entrance free je siap muka masam muncung-muncung lagi. On the way out kat luar guest book siap la I tulis tak puas hati on the exhibition.. si pengomel kat sebelah itu pun bukan main suka lagi kalau part-part negative nie…

After a while we went back… sekian kisah sehari di Muzium Negara…

Note : Nanti kalau I dah update gambar-gambar kat flickr I akan bagitau..

Update

There were a few things that had happened in my life these past few weeks. Tak ada la interesting mana but still there is a memory. Firstly, I continue balik with my fasting until now although puasa ganti dah lama habis. Itu je jalan I nak kurus selain untuk jaga kesihatan. Beside I tak payah la susah-susah nak masak tengahari, husband I pun tak balik lunch sebab dia nak balik kerja cepat and dia pun nak kuruskan badan, which I think will never happen sebab gendutan perutnya itu is ireversable haha. And other reason is offcourse I nak dapat pahala. Lagipun I tak ada bergossip or kutuk-kutuk orang. I kan sorang-sorang je kat rumah and I tak suka keluar berpelesaran tanpa tuju arah and without my husband. Facebook pun I tak masuk. So chances nak buat extra dosa tu is nil.

Last few weeks, I went out and did my snapping around. My first in such a long time. Nanti I update gambar and cerita sikit. I dah type halfway tapi tak habis lagi. I don’t know why sekarang nie masa makin lama makin tak cukup untuk I. Banyak benda I nak kena buat.. I mengemaskinikan/menyusun barangan dan peralatan dapur, cuci-cuci icebox, buang barangan yang dah outdated/expired. Sekarang tengah dalam process menyusun balik baju-baju dan baju yang tak pakai letak kat bilik lain. I’m so happy because project mengemas I berjalan dengan lancar. I buat sikit-sikit, day by day, tak nak rushing sebab I kan puasa.. alahai manjanya alasan kan hehe..

Masa hari cuti deepavali, Aida and family buat open house kat rumah sewa dorang. They sold their condo about a few months ago and move to that rented house sebab dorang dah beli rumah lain kat another area. The house that they bought will be ready by next year. Mula-mula ingat nak pakai baju kurung but husband I cakap pakai je jean and t-shirt. Sampai kat rumah dorang, alamak, I sorang je minah rock, orang lain semua pakai baju kurung.. membebel la kejap kat husband I, malu la kan.. Nasib baik anak buah husband I punya wife pun pakai jeans but as usual I’m the only one yang tak pakai tudung wakaka.. pinjam tudung Aida masa baca doa selamat. Don’t ask me when I akan pakai.. this kakak memang tak sedar sedar…

Oh on the 28th October, Aiza (adik Aida) gave birth to a healthy baby boy.. Bertambah lagi cucu saudara kita orang.. I’m so happy because baby and mother selamat.. Ingat lagi masa Aiza kecik-kecik, garang bukan main lagi makcik tu and as usual suka nyanyi. And sekarang dah ada anak sendiri.. macam tak percaya because she kinda grew up in front of my eyes. I’m sure she and her husband will be a good parents to their son just like her parents to her.

On Sunday, finally all of us (excluding Aiza and her husband) went to have our long awaited dim sum feast at Quality Hotel’s Chinese restaurant. We arrived early, 9.30am almost all of us dah ada kat situ. So acara belasah membelasah pun bermula. Kalau makan berdua tak best tapi kalau makan ramai-ramai suddenly berselera betul I. Banyak jugak yang I makan. It was a wonderful eating/outing with the family. Lepas makan, we decided to go to Jln TAR sebab I nak cari telekung yang tertangguh dari aritu lagi. I suruh husband I stop kat tepi and I cepat-cepat pegi beli.

Oh yeah, I didn’t realise that my blog nie dah berusia dua tahun on the 27th October aritu. Happy birthday to my blog and by far this is the longest and yang paling lama bertahan dalam sejarah blogging I. I hope it will last for as long it can go…

Last but not least, Selamat Menyambut Hari Raya Aidil Adha…

Penggaru Itu....

For as long as I can remember, belakang husband I sentiasa gatal. Nak kata dia bersandar kat benda- benda miang tak pernah pun I nampak. Nak kata nyamuk gigit pun tak ada jugak. Apa yang pasti dia asyik mengaru-garu belakangnya tanpa sebab. Dia selalu suruh I check kalau ada merah ke bengkak tapi bila I tengok tak ada apa-apa pun. Kadang-kadang dia cari bucu dinding yang strategic bagi mengasah belakangnya itu. Bila dia dah mula menunjalkan belakang dia, kening sebelah akan terangkat macam kening Mr Bean je.

I tak tau bila beliau mula menggunakan atau membeli penggaru belakang. I tak ingat bila tapi satu hari tu tiba-tiba I tengok dia bawak balik penggaru kayu yang dia beli entah dimana. Or was it, dia beli masa sama-sama dengan I?, I kurang pasti. Tapi yang I pasti, sejak dari haritu kemana-mana beliau pegi dalam rumah mesti ada penggaru kayu tu bersamanya. I mula-mula tengok macam kelakar aje, macam orang tua (err..bukan dia or both of us dah tua ke? Wakaka..) or macam taukey cina kat kedai kopi aje. One day tu dia complaint, dia kata penggaru kayu nie tak sedap la, keras la, sakitkan belakang dia la.. Dia kata dia nak cari yang baru.

A few weeks later, dia balik bersama dengan penggaru plastic. Dengan penuh bangga, masa dia baru balik dari kerja, depan-dpan pintu lagi dia dah angkat and tunjukkan kat I. Punyalah excited nak bagitau I berita gembira beliau. I senyum aje tengok perangai dia. Bak chewing gum yang dah kehabisan manisnya, begitula juga husband I meninggalkan penggaru kayu yang sebelum ini telah berbakti kepada beliau. Kasih sudah beralih arah ke penggaru plastic. Maka penggaru plastic itu menjadi teman baru beliau. Kemana- mana dia pegi pengaru plastic tu mesti ada. Kadang-kadang dia selitkan kat dalam short dia, lepas tu dia saje jalan sebelah I atau pusing-pusing ataupun mengelilingi I, so that I notice. Tapi I buat tak tau je sambil menjeling ke atas or buat-buat busy. Dia senyum-senyum kat I sebab dia tau yang I tau tapi I buat saje je kan hehe. Bila dia tengok I still buat tak tau, dia akan pura-pura tanya, nampak tak penggaru belakang dia, I buat pandang ke lain lepas tu dia buat-buat tekejut and cakap “Eh, kat sini rupanya” sambil menarik perlahan-lahan dari short berpinggang getahnya itu, lepas tu dia buat-buat nak garu kat tangan I, benci I tawww hahaa.., dia cuma stop kalau I menjerit. Kalau tak dia akan continue doing it.. geram I… Dan permanent place for that penggaru plastic is on our coffee table. Selain dari digunakkan untuk mengaru belakang, penggaru plastic itu digunakkan untuk mengaru kaki, ke or mana-mana part kat badan dia. Kadang-kadang dia buat-buat garu ketiak and try nak garu badan I, acah-acah la konon, I cepat-cepat lari, yuckss.. nak muntah I.. Lepas tu bila tengok I lari, bukan main suka lagi dia. I kata buat la macam tu kalau berani, you pegi kerja I bakar or baling keluar. Dia kata dia boleh beli baru, beli la I kata, I akan buang lagi or I bagi kat beruk kalau kawan-kawan beruk dia make a surprise visit to us again… wakaka…

One day tu, beliau mencari-cari sesuatu and tanya I mana penggaru plastic dia. I kata, mana I tau, memang I tak tau pun. Nak dekat dengan benda tu pun I geli. Then dia accused I sembunyikan. I kata, ingat I tak ada kerja lain ke kat rumah? (memang I tak ada kerja pun kat rumah wakaka..) Ada wajah muram di wajah beliau bagai merindui sesuatu. Malam tu bila tengok tv, I perasan dia rasa macam kurang selesa, kejap-kejap pandang I sebab dia masih suspect I lagi. Then I tengok, dia cari pengaru kayu yang lama and start garu belakang dia, itu pun kejap aje sebab dia cakap, tak best la.. ini la itu la and then dia stop guna. Sejak dari hari itu I tengok dia tak garu lagi belakang dia, tapi kadang-kadang dia akan membengkokkan ibu jari dia and mengaru dengan sungguh uniknya hahaha.. I kata padan muka, itu la niat jahat kat I.. selalu usik I and ugut guna pengaru tu… Dia kata kalau dia jumpa dia nak garu kat seluruh badan I. I kata you tak akan jumpa selagi niat you buruk sebab I bini paling baik dalam dunia hahaha… (uweek..) Husband I kata memang la sebab I kan bidadari dia, alahai perasannya dia….

So one day tu, tengah I berkemas-kemas kat ruang tamu, I terjumpa penggaru plastic idaman kelabu dia. I sengih sorang-sorang, especially bila I teringat akan mulut cute dia yang mengomel complaint pasal kehilangan penggaru plastic itu. Then I letakkan betul-betul depan tv so that bila dia switch on remote dia akan nampak. Malam tu seperti biasa dia landing kat favourite spot dia dengan sebelah kaki kat atas and sebelah kat bawah hahaha.. dia on tv macam biasa.. tapi I tengok dia macam tak perasan aje. I tanya tak perasan ke? Dia pandang keliling rumah, dia cakap “wah! kemasnya..” I kata “bukan tu la.. tengok betul-betul”. Kepala dia pusing kiri kanan and still confused. I kata “tengok la kat tv tu”.. dia pandang and still tak perasan lagi.. I kata” tengok la betul-betul…” Tiba-tiba dia tersenyum lebar and sibuk la tanya, mana I jumpa and terus dia mencapai penggaru plastic itu dan start garu belakang dia. Padahal masa penggaru tu tak ada, tak pulak dia garu belakang dia dengan penggaru kayu tu hari-hari, cuma sekali aje. Tak lama kemudian I tengok dia tertidur dengan penggaru plastic itu yang diletakkan didadanya… Nyampah I tau.. macam pasangan kekasih pulak….

Kisah Sabtu Lepas

(Tiga selipar kat atas tu husband I beli, yang dua bawah tu I beli)

Last Saturday both of us pegi ke Ampang Point sebab nak test mata I yang berzaman tak check. Lepas makan kat Octopus terus ke kedai Optical.. Ingatkan nak beli spec baru untuk pakai malam-malam lepas bukak contact lense but fikir balik..nanti la dulu sebab I dah ada dua spec and style yang salesgirl to bagi, sama je macam kat rumah and I need to betulkan yang rim colour black tu. The other one style spec biasa aje. Oh masa opthemtrist to checked I was so glad sebab mata I tak naik and in fact turun lagi… cuma silau aje yang bertambah… other than that everything is perfect. Then order contact lense baru untuk pakai selama 6 bulan macam biasa. But this time, order/beli yang latest and pricey but salesgirl to convinced, it’s the best and comfortable.. tak dry, latest and tak pernah dengar customer complaint etc.

Lepas abis dengan kedai Optical, we went to kedai buku. Its like a habit that I have to masuk kedai buku and mesti ada je yang I grab, walau pen nan sebatang sekalipun. I bought a key chain on my birthday’s date and glow in the dark hehe.. and I grab one recipe book.. nampak macam interesting aje. I can’t wait to try although it is still wrapping in a plastic kat rumah. Then we went to look for my slippers @ selipar jepun yang bertumit tinggi jenis platform. I told my husband I nak beli sendiri, kira macam I punya birthday gift untuk diri sendiri. I beli dua and terus pakai kat situ sebab yang tengah pakai masa tu dah terputus tali. Lepas tu both of us keluar dari that kedai kasut jukebox and we saw ada banyak varities of slippers nie kat kiosk exactly berdepan dengan kedai kasut jukebox. I kata kat husband I, jom pegi kat situ sebab I nak beli lagi. Husband I insist nak belikan I. I pilih dua and dia pilih one very nice for me and dia kata please biar dia bayar. Husband I kan, tak suka kalau I nak beli or bayar sendiri. I tanya kenapa, dia kata that is his job to pay for everything.. kira macam tak macho kalau I bayar kot. I selalu kata, but it is from the money that you gave me.. He said it doesn’t matter and told me to just keep the money he gave me.

Lepas beli selipar, we went down to beli kerepek-kerepek and after that husband I hantar barang ke kereta because both of us nak ke Giant beli barangan dapur sikit. Bila husband I beratur kat counter I took the opportunity to stand outside. I was playing with my rings while waiting for him queing to pay and tiba-tiba I perasan the ring on my right hand was gone. I was so sad and mengadu kat dia. Dia suruh I tanya tempat-tempat yang both of us pegi tadi. I pun pegi balik kat kedai optical tanya salesgirls kat situ, habis dia bongkar kat tong sampah tapi still tak jumpa, pegi toilet and check kat sinki, ke tempat I beli selipar kat kedai kasut jukebox and kiosk tanya salesgirls kat situ, dorang kata tak ada. I was so down. Husband I try tenangkan I and masuk dalam kereta dia suruh check dalam plastic, I kata buat apa memang gerenti terbuang sebab masa I bukak spec and pakai contact lense kat kedai Optical I cuci dengan sabun, sure jatuh ke dalam sinki.. and also masa I pegi toilet I basuh tangan dengan sabun mesti slipped through kat situ jugak and I remember lepas basuh I goyang-goyang tangan I sebab nak keringkan jari jemari I.

Hati I memang sedih masa dalam kereta, air mata pun bergenang kat kelopak mata, well actually tak ada la sedih sangat sebab I kena terima hakikat, kalau dah fated that it is gone, it is gone, walau macam mana sedih I sekalipun kan… Tapi I senyap je dalam kereta sebab that is one of my fav’s ring and banyak kenangan… My husband specifically choose that diamond design and cincin and then Habib’s salesperson letakkan/clamped kat cincin tu. Bila dia tengok I senyap and muka pun ala-ala pilu macam Fauziah Ghous kat Tahajud Cinta. Sedaya upaya dia pujuk I, sambil mengenggam tangan I, dia cakap, cincin hilang, tak apa boleh beli baru asal jangan you yang hilang… wah.. cair abis hati I masa tu hehe.., sambil memandang ke arah beliau I memberikan senyuman hambar walau hati I gundah gulana.

Then husband I pujuk suruh I pegi cuci and steam rambut. I pun terpikir jugak nak buat sebab lama dah pegi salon. I cakap how about I pegi spa sebab I tak ada mood nak borak dengan pekerja salon. Husband I kata, that is even better to go to the spa. Sampai kat bali spa, I tanya ramai orang ke or ada therapist ke sebab I tak buat appointment, in fact I tak pernah buat appointment each time I pegi situ.. sebab it is always spur of the moment kinda thing. Masuk dalam tu, I ingat nak senyap aje tapi tak lama lepas tu I pun bagitau apa terjadi kat I, tak sampai 5 minute, husband I called kata dia dah jumpa kat dalam plastic kerepek. I hairan macam mana boleh termasuk kat situ sebab husband I yang bawak.. entahlah.. Then husband I kata, nie hah cincin dia.. Dalam hati I nak tergelak, mana la I boleh nampak kat hp unless dia guna whatever it is. Then sibuk la dia kata, dia suruh I check kat plastic I tak nak… bla bla.. I kata yela yela, I kata kat dia I nak off hp so that dia tak kacau I lagi hehehe.. Husband I gelakkan I dengan penuh nada ketamilannya.

Masa husband I angkat I, dia cakap lagi.. hahh.. ada kat dalam plastic dia jumpa and dia check thoroughly.. bla bla.. I know he wants to be appreciated hehe.. I kata yela yela sambil memusingkan anak mata I ke atas, husband I picit pipi I hahaha.. On the way nak balik I sangat lapar then we went to Setiawangsa to buy the Nasi Ayam Kukus.. Lepas mandi and solat maghrib terus makan. Oh.. sedapnya… especially cili cicah dia…

Itulah kisah both of us on the weekend/last Saturday... kalau dalam seminggu tak ada drama dalam hidup I, macam tak sah je kan?

Kisah September and Latest Update

There are a lot of things happened during the September month. Firstly, offcourse Hari Raya yang lepas, barangan kat rumah tak berganti pun. Kain langsir yang bergantung last year langsung I tak basuh.. tak kuasa, selalunya 4, 5 tahun baru I bawak turun cuci. Itu pun I ada dua je.. kalau satu basuh, pakai yang satu. As for kuih raya, I beli je kat Giant and JJ.

So first day raya tu selalunya pagi-pagi lagi husband I dah bagi angpau tapi this year dia tukar concept, bagi I hadiah rantai emas, siap dengan pendant love celoreng emas putih lagi hehe.. Dia cakap hadiah serentak dengan our annivesary sebab fall on the same day of Hari Raya. Sungguh romantic pagi raya kami berdua. Tapikan I hairan kenapa orang menangis-nangis mintak maaf kat laki ke or anak-anak minta maaf sambil peluk-peluk syahdu. Sebabkan I tak ada feeling pun bila I mintak maaf and cium tangan husband I dan sesambil tu cium-cium pipi mungil dia sekali. In fact I boleh cakap, “hah… sorry kalau I banyak buat silap tapi, you la selalu buat I marah..” Apa punya bini. Lepas tu, both of us pegi rumah in law, makan-makan, ambik gambar beramai-ramai and balik rumah. Balik je terus tukar baju pakai jeans and t-shirt sebab nak pegi Giant, nak beli bahan-bahan untuk esok sebab anak-anak buah nak datang esok. Selalunya on the first day of raya itself dorang akan datang but memandangkan ramai yang balik rumah in law on the first day so they decided to come tomorrow.

(Ayam Golek, siap dengan pisau tercacak lagi and mee goreng)

Masa pegi kat Giant, wah..meriahnya orang-orang kat situ dengan baju sedondon siap bersampin lagi. I dengan husband sempoi abis.. Orang selalu cakap, raya kat KL tak meriah la, tak best la. I tak rasa pun maybe sebab I tak pernah merasai suasana macam mana kan furthermore I’m not too keen to berkunjung mengunjung nie, nanti takde benda lain yang dorang akan tanya, anak berapa orang, dah check doctor.. bla bla and all that shit! Daripada dada I berapi baik la I tak payah jumpa-jumpa orang. Bukan tu je, kalau jumpa dengan sesiapa orang yang baru berkenalan dengan I, itu la yang di tanya. Part paling “best” bila dorang tanya, tua nanti siapa nak jaga? Dalam hati I, terus I menyumpah sambil berdoa “mintak-mintak anak kau baling kau kat longkang atau lombong bila kau dah ganyut nanti”. So sesiapa yang rasa nak cakap ayat kat atas tu kat orang-orang yang bernasib baik macam I, silakan la… Wah, emosi la pulak. Tak abis-abis issue yang sama I omelkan hehehe…

Anyway, second day raya tu pagi-pagi sibuk la both of us, masak memasak. I masak ayam golek, mee goreng, nasi tomato and buat sirap bandung. Selain daripada tu, rendang and lemang beli je. Husband I beli KFC sebab memang acara wajib tiap-tiap tahun or kalau berbuka dengan dorang mesti request KFC, kira husband I nie mascot barrel/bucket KFC hehe.. We had such a great time and sibuk la berborak-borak. I kan kadang-kadang risau kalau borak dengan dorang sebab telinga I bukannya clear sangat. Tak tau kenapa la, nak kata pekak, kalau orang berbisik dari jauh boleh pulak dengar tapi kalau borak dekat-dekat tiba-tiba kepala I jadi blank and telinga I langsung tak dapat tangkap percakapan dorang.. memang dari kecik lagi dah macam nie. Bukan tu aje, lain yang orang cakap telinga I filter benda lain.

Selain daripada tu, I dah ganti puasa masa I uzur bulan puasa sebanyak sepuluh hari although kalau nak di kira lapan hari aje. I suka lebihkan. Lepas abis puasa ganti, I puasa enam pulak. So I puasa 16 hari la kan. Then I period and offcourse tak puasa, lepas period I membelasah macam biasa and berat badan I menunjukkan tanda-tanda peningkatan. Habis period, I relax kejap and I start puasa balik last week for five days. Hari Sabtu and Ahad I tak puasa. And masuk hari nie, hari kedua I puasa lagi sekali untuk minggu nie and sama macam last week, weekend is my off day from puasa. I’m going to make this as my routine. Husband I pun tak balik tengahari, dia pun cakap nak kurangkan berat badan dia. Bila dia cakap macam tu I senyum-senyum je sebab ituler azam dia berabad yang lalu.

(Buffet at Mid Valley Karaoke)

Next story pulak, a few days after raya, anak-anak buah called ajak berkaraoke ke The Garden at Mid-Valley. Mula-mula both of us malas nak pegi because it was malam Jumaat and who wouldnt want to miss Tahajud Cinta. But luckily ianya tak ditayangkan that week because it is still a week of raya and furthermore I puasa ganti. So penyanyi-penyanyi bertaraf international ini pun dengan penuh confident menaiki satu kereta untuk kesana. Buffet was provided and the food…oh…makanan sungguh class, sangat delicious and berbagai-bagai jenis Rambang mata I, semua I nak makan. Sampai tak habis, punya la tamaknya. Masa karaoke tu, I nyanyi lagu Ning, habis all the soprano punya suara keluar.. wakaka… Lagu Sudirman pun I sapu jugak.. Itu belum lagi lagu English, mana nak cari penyanyi karaoke multi lingua nih! As usual, husband I kalau tak puji bini dia yang maha perasan nie memang tak sah. I tau suara I tak sedap langsung but husband I make it like I la penyanyi yang paling banyak menang grammy award ekeke… Aiza, jangan kira la.. suara memang sangat la sedapnya and si Khairul, penyanyi lagu-lagu indon yang tegar same goes to husband Aiza… lagu rock kapak mesti ada…

Oh last but not least, my insomnia problem dah sedikit demi sedikit kembali pulih. I dah boleh tidur awal, dalam pukul 1.30am I dah ngantuk and malam tadi I tidur pukul 12.30am. I am so happy and I hope it will continue and I boleh tidur awal lagi.. Syukur Alhamdullilah.

Sekian, kisah sepanjang September and latest ini.

Birthday Ku Yang Dah Basi

My birthday was about a week ago, but yeah, I tau.. I sepatutnya update blog I yang lama dah mengumpul habuk ini. Sian blog nie kan.. kejam betul I meninggalkannya begitu saje. Anyway, about my cerita birthday yang sudah basi ini, two days before the actual birthday, husband I dah siap-siap bagi hadiah petang tu. I was so surprised and was wondering bila dia bawak masuk without my knowledge.

(Birthday Gift)

So petang tu dengan wajah yang penuh pengharapan husband I surprised I with the gift. I was so happy, walaupun hadiahnya sangat simple but that is what I want. Apparently, he remembered drama last year on which I merajuk (menyampah bila ingat balik). Dia belikan I set toiletries crabtree hehehe.. yes, case last year la… Nasib baik dia ingat..kalau tak..memang berdrama lagi ler.. In fact last week during my birthday pun ada drama.. nie nak cerita la nie… The next night after jam pukul 12.00am Oct, 2nd, husband I keluarkan cake kecik (dapat free sebab dia beli dua kek for next day event because one of our anak buah punya birthday dengan I dekat-dekat, dia 1st Oct and I 2nd Oct.. so buat sekali) and siap letak lilin untuk I tiup.. Alahai.. romantic la konon... Sebelum tiup, I made a wish (yela tu..tua-tua pun nak ber wish kan..) dengan lilin yang 5 batang itu.. kalau nak letak semua memang tak cukup muka cake tu, benci I taw..

(Pra Birthday Cake (konon) Sebenarnya beli dua cake dapat satu free.. cake atas nie free)

As planned, the nieces and nephews dah bagitau a week before that, that they planned to take us out to breakfast or lunch at Quality Hotel, Chinese restaurant. But dorang cancelled at the last minute sebab one of our anak buah punya grandma past away on my birthday. Mula-mula kita orang berdua nak cancel but husband I kata carry on je, kita dua je pegi makan situ. On the way nak pegi, as usual husband I mengomel tak abis-abis pasal orang kat jalan la, indon la, politic la.. and all kind of thing.. Tiba-tiba I rasa fed up because I thought that day is my birthday I want to have a peaceful mind and enjoy the scenery, sementelah lama memerap kat rumah so sekali sekala nak la jugak menikmati persekitaran dengan suasana yang tenang. I terasa hati, I cakap kat husband I, boleh tak for once dia senyap and let me enjoy my moment (enjoy moment la konon), muka I sudah masam and hati sudah remuk..

Bila dah nak dekat sampai kat situ, I dah tak ada mood nak makan.. I cakap kat husband I, I tak nak makan… mood dah hilang.. Dengan penuh risau, dia tanya nak makan apa… Dalam kecewa tu sempat la lagi I cakap makan kat KLCC je la (wah.. demand kakak sorang nih), lepas dia belok nak pegi ke arah KLCC, tiba-tiba I teringat dia beria-ria nak makan kat dim sum masa kat rumah. Hati ini yang sungguh lembut lagi berbudi perkerti..wakaka..pun mengubah fikiran kembali. I cakap, ok la makan dim sum.. Dia bagai tidak percaya tapi memang sudah cukup memahami isterinya ini yang tidak tetap pendirian serta seorang yang tidak sampai hati (muntah la korang baca hehe..), membelokkan kembali ke arah sebelum ini.

(Cake Birthday I yang sebenarnya)

Lepas makan, I tak ingat mana kita orang pegi.. maklumla last week punya kisah lagipun I punya ingatan memang teramat teruknya… Kalau last week orang kenalkan I pada somebody, this week memang I definitely tak ingat muka serta nama…. Oh yeah..malam tu husband I keluarkan cake yang sebenar, yang malam semalam tu cake pra birthday..(wah pra la pulak). Seperti biasa dengan tidak berbaju beliau meletakkan cake kat atas meja and pasang lilin sekali lagi.. I tengok perut dia rasa macam nak cucuh dengan lilin yang telah dipasangkan api itu. I dah malas nak cakap kat dia suruh pakai baju putih pagoda itu, pakai lima minit terus mengadu tak selesa la panas la…

So sekian, cerita I yang tidak seberapanya ini.. Nanti I story pasal kisah I bulan lepas yang tak update itu.

Note : Macam mana boleh tau birthday sis nie, sis tak bagitau pun kat sesiapa...
