Macam-macam Ada Di Jitra, Kedah

Setelah agak lama tidak menjenguk kampung (dua minggu tak jumpa anak), aku dan suami mengambil kesempatan cuti Hari Pekerja untuk berangkat pulang. Dek kerana lewat menempah tiket bas, kami mengambil keputusan untuk memandu sendiri. Suami yang memandu dan aku menemaninya; walau pun asyik terlelap, hehehe. Hanya sekali saja kami singgah berhenti rehat untuk menyegarkan mata yang mengantuk. Suami mengambil angin malam di luar manakala aku terus melayan mimpi yang indah berbantalkan lengan di dalam kereta. Sorry sayang, owg ngantuk sangat malam tu. Setibanya kami di Jitra, Ayah sudah selesai bersiap untuk berkonvoi ke Terengganu. Ekspedisi mencandat sotong. Menarik!

Perkara pertama yang dilakukan, melepaskan rindu pada anak. Ayah kejutkan Rifqi. Dalam mamai, dia menangis. Selepas sedar, terlampau aktif. Panjat gril tingkap, ketuk pintu, lari sana, lari sini. Huhuhu…Dah besar rupanya anakku ini. Tak terasa cepatnya masa berlalu.

Dan,

..hari-hari berikutnya merupakan kenangan yang terindah… (jiwang seh!). Kita ‘layan’ gambar-gambar eh?!

Dalam perjalanan ke Kampung Senggora, Pendang, Kedah

Rumah di mana Baba dilahirkan – nostalgik sungguh!

Saya tak takut ular getah warna biru…sssszzz

Whoa! Gayat eh…

I am doing just F.I.N.E. see why?

The Brain Tree look alike

Sotong segar hasil ‘candatan’ Ayah dan kawan-kawan

Si Pembakar Sotong

Mari..mari…makan sotong bakar

Sotong Bakar ala Baba & Air Asam Air Tangan Mak *kesedapan tak terkata*

Tertidur kepenatan..Zzzz..

Please Call Your Loved Ones

Hmm..

I received a friendly call from one of my best-Kampung-buddy; Hakim. He started the conversation by asking on how am I doing, the ups and downs in my life and KABOOM!, he dropped the bomb.

Hakim : “Family angkat ko rindu sangat kat ko lah”

Ziggy   : *blink blink* “Umm…really? Ko biar betul Hakim!”

Hakim : “Serius, tak tipu. Kakak ko asyik dok tanya ko je”

Ziggy   : *scratching the head* “Umm….”

Hakim : “Hah, ni mesti ko tak telefon ni. Aku memain je, aku telefon family angkat aku apsal pulak nak cakap pasal family ko eh?”

Ziggy   : *cursing* “Yelah, aku sedar, karang aku telefonlah.”

Hakim : “bla..bla..bla..”

Ziggy   : “bla..bla..bla..”

Thanks to Hakim, instead of calling my foster family, I decided to call Zaidi and managed to drop a bomb or two at him. Heee…

Only to find out that I am the ONLY one who doesn’t call at all.

And this song suddenly hit my head - “Apa dosa kami, lalu tidak tegur? Anak rusa Nani…”

Rambut Itu Mahkota

Terima kasih kepada suamiku yang percaya dan berani mempertaruhkan rambutnya untuk kugunting lewat semalam.

Boleh tahan ya? Bagai professional barber eh!

We Are Two!

It was 3rd December 2007; and it was our 2nd anniversary.

We are million miles apart.

No celebration needed.

Just the thoughts that count.

Happy Anniversary, dear regardless where you are.

Siti’s Wedding

Come 10th November 2007, my family and I attended Siti’s wedding (Pak Su’s eldest daughter) in Penaga, Butterworth. Although we arrived rather late than the other relatives (due to Ayah’s commitment towards his friend’s kenduri in Jitra), I think we did not miss much of the event, perhaps for the bersanding, yes, but on the whole, we still managed to catch up with them.

I used to be very close to my cousin; Siti (the bride). She’s a few years younger than I am. At first, the idea of her getting married does not even occur to me (this soon?!!). But after meeting her and the husband on the wedding day, they both seemed very calm and ready to stepped up into the new life ahead; as a married couple. Insyaallah. Wishing you all the best, always.

Ready to pushed off from Jitra

The best thing of all, rumah pengantin di tepi sawah (bendang)

The Person I Miss The Most

His infectious smile; though he seldoms smile

The love notes which I made him promise to read everyday

Cat fight : Rifqi and his Ucu

The end result : I gotcha, Ucu ( pow!)

Thinking hard..” I’m going to miss my Baba”

Leaving On A Plane

I stopped by at the Office today to finish some of the pending work; after sending Zam to TH Kelana Jaya. He is leaving for Mecca today at 3.00 pm. My cousin, Abang Hasri whom will be in the same flight as Zam told me that the journey would probably take up to 8 hours. Yeah, maybe we’ll be arriving at our destinations at approximately the same hour. Zam to Mecca, and I will be in my parent’s comfort home in Jitra.

I’ll update the pictures on Monday provided that I’ll have some free time to do so.

Till then, Happy Deepavali!

Lil’ Baby Rifqi@workstation

A visit to a clinic has confirmed that Lil’ baby Rifqi is down with measles. Little had Ibu and Baba expected that the hot fever Lil’ Baby Rifqi had on last Friday was an early sign of measles. Nevertheless, Lil’ Baby Rifqi is fine now. The spots are obvious now; and due to that Lil’ Baby Rifqi ought to stay home until he is cured. Since Ibu is super busy, and not to mention Baba too, Lil’ Baby Rifqi got the chance to spend his lazy days at Ibu’s office; inside the cube.

Ibu brought Lil’ Baby Rifqi’s play pen to the office and positioned it beside Ibu’s working station. So that, it will be easier for Ibu to monitor Lil’ Baby Rifqi’s movements. Yesterday, turned out fine. Lil’ Baby Rifqi knew how to behave. Today, it’s a mystery for Ibu to solve by the end of the day.

Here are some of the photos of Lil’ Baby Rifqi @Ibu’s workstation.
