Laugh laugh.

Despite of today’s busy-ness and hanginness, I had a good laugh during the Professional Development lecture by Dr. Rajagopal.

‘If an engineer made a mistake, only one building will collapse. Look at MRR2.’

Haha. Sir, MRR2 is not a building.

‘Whatever you’ve learnt in England, New Zealand and Auckland.’

Haha. Sir, Auckland is in New Zealand. I know you wanted to say Australia.

‘GU is kegelapan and RU is cahaya. So, guru means dari kegelapan kepada keceriaan.’

Haha. Sir, it’s kecerahan and not keceriaan.

Of which he answered, ‘Never mind lah. You all understand me, don’t you.’

Haha.

And, I still couldn’t understand why more than half of the students did not find these amusing and bermuka ketat during the lecture. Have a bit of fun in your life, boleh tak?

Fresh from bed.

Coincidence? Maybe. This is entry number 150, the first one since thelilmindofmine has a new appearance. Pure coolness. Haha. Well, I was already bored with the green layout I had previously, and changing the blog colour to pink-purple doesn’t really do any good either. Thus, the new layout.

I am now back in IPBA after one good break despite the fact that I fell ill a few days ago and still have to swallow the antibiotics prescribed by the doctor. I blame the weather in the northern part of Malaysia for my sickness. Haha.

So how did I spend my one week break?

I voted for the first time during the recent general election. Auntie Kiah made my day a few hours before the voting took place. I had just woken up and went straight to the door to have a chat with Auntie, Uncle, Azhar and Mama.

Auntie: Eh, ada orang potong rambut lah. Comelnya.
Alin: (Dalam hati berkata-kata, ‘dah lama potong la’, tersenyum-senyum sipu).
Auntie: Orang kata, kalau nak tengok someone tu lawa ke comel ke tak, tengoklah time orang tu baru bangun tido.
Alin: Maknanya, Alin comel lah ni?
Auntie: Comel.
Alin: Alah lah (tersipu-sipu senyum lagi).

Haha. A good start for the day eh? So, the day continued and I went to cast my vote in SK St Francis. I was too tired to wait for the results so I asked Azwan to give me all the updates. Travelled to Guar Chempedak on the next day to attend Wani’s wedding and arrived just in time for her akad nikah. FYI, I sat on her left side through the whole akad process. Ambik berkat eh. Spend a few hours at her house while waiting for other friends to arrive. The boys wanted to go to Penang and we decided to come along. Another ferry ride after 15 years. Macam jakun sikit naik feri. Haha. So after another night spent at Chinot’s house, I returned home. My nose started bleeding the next day, not dripping blood kind of thing, but everytime I sneeze, there’s blood in the mucus. I was flat for the next two days, was down with fever and almost had an asthma attack. Thank God for precaution pills.

On Thursday, I felt better and since it was Mama’s birthday, I bought her a cake, Mango Delight from Secret Recipe. We went to KL on Friday, Jaja had cooked dinner so we invited Mak Cu and co. as well. Travelled to Melaka the next day to visit Arep, and had lunch at Kenny Rogers. Came back, had a short rest and had a dinner treat at TGI Friday Subang Parade. Thanks to Mak Cu and Celcom. Mak Cu was given a bonus, you see. Haha. This morning, we went to Amcorp Mall. Mama was looking for brooches or sepit rambut kind of things to wear with her headscarves but she ended up buying something else. I didn’t buy anything except for Caramel Creme Frap from Starbucks. Back in IPBA, I spent a few hours moping and tidying up my locker, had lunch, and did the whole blog layout thingy. And, here I am.

So, tomorrow is another day of lectures. Back to reality of life. Busy-ness and hangin-ness.

Pangkah Shudah.

Sheleshai lah shudah tanggung jawab untuk hari ini. Dah pangkah dah. Jam 10.40 tadi pegi. Pukul 11 dah beratur nak cuci kereta. Sekejap sahaja. Nak masuk pintu pagar St. Francis tadi ada nyonya datang approach. ‘Amoi, undi BN ya. Dua-dua BN.’ Ye lah nyonya. Tengoklah nanti. Haha.

Shekarang menunggu masa untuk bergerak ke Butterworth pulak. Ada walimah di Guar Chempedak. Tak jadi naik bas. Tiket bas dah jual balik. Dapat balik RM10. Pegi sana tumpang Uncle Tamjis dengan Aunty Kiah. Uncle dengan Aunty nak ngundi kat Butterworth. Azhar jadi driver. Tiket pon Azhar tolong jualkan balik tadi.

Ini nak pegi walimah jauh-jauh, walimah depan rumah tak pegi. Esok juga. Shudah nampak pengantin lelakinya berus lantai rumah. Khemah dah siap pacak pon. Malam tadi sampai sudah ada. Ada enam khemah semuanya. Reverse kereta kena hati-hati. Langgar pagar sampai patah takpe lagi. Buat pagar baru terush. Kalau langgar tiang khemah shushah. Parah. Rosak walimah orang nanti.

Shudahlah. Ini hanyalah rant sahaja. Sudah lama tak berupdate. Nanti pulang dari walimah Wani baru update lagilah. Kalau rajin.

A dallop of bliss and sympathy.

It was a temporary bliss when I had this for lunch on Sunday.

And another bliss yesterday when I saw this on my bed. (It wasn’t intentional.)


Had a good laugh seeing Miller kicked Asha when all this while Asha was the naughty one.

And although I never like Arsenal, I felt sorry for Eduardo, for what he has gone through and has to go through.


A good dallop of bliss and sympathy to start the week, eh?
