My Weekend

Since I went to JB on Fri evening after work, with Tiot and Pak Long of coz,
(remind me never to be the middle person between 2 people arguing,
its too damn awkward for my own good! I've nvr been sooo quiet!)
and woke up on Saturday morning awakened by lil kiddo's excited voices.
I instantly realised that my two lovelies are in the house! I quickly washed up and
went down and was greeted by Haziq's "Eh! Mak Ngah ada sini?" and then Hani
came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of rice and rendang daging (bt she only
ate the rice and not the rendang daging and I wonder why she even bothered
to have rendang daging on her plate in the first place?) and said, "Eh, Mak Ngah
ada sini?" I'm telling you if anyone ever doubted that they are siblings, they definitely
had never experienced the Eh-Mak-Ngah-ada-sini episode.

And so I started to hug and kiss them and watched tv with them. Nurul was already
awake (I'm surprised!) and she wanted to watch another show on tv. (Kids watching
cartoon. D-uh!) Hani wasn't too keen on that till I said, "Hani, ley tak kalau Mak Ngah
tgk ada pape crita lain?" And she said "Oklah, tukar." She soooo loves me. We ended up
watching Diva Popular. Not like I liked the show, bt I love the fact to wake up one fine
weekend and spend it by first of all menatap wajah SAYANNNNNNNNG KU.....
Siapa lagi... AWIE lah! Funny thing was when I screamt Awie!!! Hani immediately,
said " Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!" And covered her eyes. Why? Coz up to this day, she is reminded
of the pic of Me and Awie on my handphone. According to her, dia geli tgk Mak Ngah and
Pak Ngah peluk. Kids, what do they know? Of coz , I had to disturb her about it lah kan.
That's what any good Mak Ngah will do. I said, " Hani! Tgk Pak Ngah tu!" And she kept
covering her eyes and did grudging noises and even said "Awie tak hensem lah Mak Ngah,
Awal lagi hensem!" And she kept bugging me the whole movie saying that. That's what
all bad nephew/nieces will do - irritate the Mak Ngah. Of coz I had to say, "yelah, mmg
lah Pak Ngah tk hensem, mmglah Awal lagi hensem dari Pak Ngah, tp Mak Ngah tetap
sayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan kan Pak Ngah." To this, she looked like she's gonna puked,
be traumatised all her life and almost go insane. She did the grudging noises again
and covered her eyes with her hands. That'll shut her up.

Cut the story short - we rushed back to SG as Tiot had an appointment with her
beloved nak tgk2 rumah kat Woodlands. The first house she went is almost near
err..... someone's place. It was sad when Haziq cried and said "Haziq nak ikut Mak Ngah, Haziq nak ikut Mak Ngah" repeatedly. Aww.... that kid.

I would had went back with Lukman but I needed to rush
back too as I had an appointment for choreographing at 3pm. (Rmbr my last post?)
I reached home exactly at 3pm and text my Nat. She said I could take a rest first
as she is getting ready. I asked how long will she take as I was too damn sleepy.
(Bus rides on 168 always makes me sleepy). She said "Go take a power nap first and
I'll fetch you in a cab at ard 4.30pm." Good, if I wanted to take a shower before leaving,
I had a good 30 mins power nap. That'll will do.

When my alarm rang at 4pm I knew that I had to do more than take a shower.
I was too tired and I don't think my brain nor my limbs is capable of doing anything.
I went to get a real long bath when Nat text me and said "I'm out - c u in 10."
Shit! I rushed like mad and told myself there's no time to dry my hair. I quickly changed,
combed my hair and grab my stuffs when Nat texted me "ETA 5mins."
Bt when I was at the door I heard a honk and I told myself "Don't tell me that's her!" when
my hp started ringing. I answered and immediately said "Don't tell me that's you! I'm coming down!" The first thing I said to her when I sat in the cab is "So much for ETA 5mins - that's ETA 2mins!" "Bt I swear we din honk! We just reached by the time you were at the void deck!"
And then she quickly texted me and pass me her hp (nak gossip kan!) "I got a young cabby for you!!!!" I said " I know!!!! And cute toooooooooooo!" Too bad he's such a heavy smoker. Bt he's very nice and sweet and soft spoken.

We reached at Su's at 5pm bt didn't get to start at all as Su had to help out since her bro's frens were on the way for Raya. We finally decided on what song at ard 7.15 and got down to business at 7.35 pm. The song is a remix of Rasuk - Joy and a shorter version of it. Thank God! Su and I both combined our brains and taught Nat what to do. Of coz, only Su and Nat will be performing next week bt they tried to beg and trick me into performing with them. This time I said a stern "No!". We got everything done by 8.30pm (cayalah! a Pro's job per!) And we danced and danced and danced. Mak oi... berpeluh2 dibuatnyer, kaki Mak sampai sakit Nyah! Tapi it was fun lah!
I sooooo enjoyed it. So now Nat and Su said I shld be their permanent co-ordinator. I have yet to
teach them the Kuda Kepang tingy - they need to iring the pengantin all. But no worries - I promised myself nt to even touch the Kuda for the fear that my Daddy's "Godfather" will inform my Daddy and I can forget about having a head on my shoulder and two legs!

We left at 9.30 as I wanted to rush home to catch lil Tonet before he goes back to Bukit Batok. Sampai jer, Daddy Dores and Mama Prata nk go visit Siddiq at his new Tamps crib. Good! All the gang can pindah Tamps then even my sister can move to Tamps. Yeah!!!!! After washing up, I went straight to Tonet who was sleeping. I shooed Diyana out of the way and slept beside him. His Tok Tan came in soon after and you know how the Tok always want him to be awake so that he can speak to the grandchild? So he did it again. He insisted that Tonet is awake and to caryr him sbb "kesian dier nnt lemas" when all Tonet did was move a bit. When he started to sob lightly I quicky carried him, put him on my body face down, with his head over my shoulder and pat him and sang his favourite song. He went to sleep immediately - and so did I. Then Diyana came in to tell me that his Ah-Ba(Chin) and Ee-Boo(Suk) went to have supper with Mankey and will be back a bit late. Like I'm gonna complain. Then Tonet did his mengadu tingy while still sleeping and I asked him if he was comfortable sleeping on me like that and if I should put him down. He started to sob even louder (mcm sedihnyerrr crite) so I decided to let him continue sleeping like that. I almost dozed off again when I suddenly thought, what if while sleeping, he gets suffocated by the mountains of pillows? So I changed his position - I lowered him a bit and put his head on my chest and covered us both with Mum's blanket. I held him tightly of coz - mana tau kalau aku terlepaskan dia and dia jatuh tergolek. We both slept soundly when suddenly I thought, will his Ah-Ba(Chin) kill me seeing me sleep with his son like that, especially when I am sleeping too? (Not like I wil allow anything to happen to Lil Tonet of coz!) So I thought, better put him down before his parents come back. Luckily si budak kecik tu tak melalak. After patting him for awhile - dgn aku aku sekali tertido. Bangun jer terkejut biler terpandang wajah jembalang yg berdiri di sebelah katil memandang aku dgn Ryan. Hodohnya! Oh.... Shahreil rupanyer.... ;p

I looked at the watch and its almost midnite. Oohhh a good 2 hours sleeping with Ryan... best nyerrrrrrrrrrr! After that, I went to shower and prepared myself to go to bed. Sok kan nak jalan Raya.

The jalan raya this year cumer 6 org saja - Nad, Rah, Yaya, Aliza, Ashirah and Myself. 'Asy cldn't make it last min coz of family commitment while Herni said she is not joining coz they are not sincere in inviting her to join and Afni, well I think she made excuses coz Herni is not ard and she do not wanna feel left out tho I told her I'm there. I tink she agrees with Herni's sentiment of the nt sincere tingy. Apa-apalah. I'm there because of the yearly obligations to be there. Plus, I do wanna meet up with Aliza, Ashirah and Yaya.

We were suppose to meet at 11.30 at Aliza's place as the Trajet is there and not at Yaya's place. I thought I wanna reach there at 12 as I know my friends well enough to know what time they will sashay in. Bt then I was ready by 11.30 so I left, took a cab to Aliza's place (brat kan? I know. I caught the Along disease - bt malaslah nk naik bus). Reached there almost at 1145 and Yaya was already there. Dia bukak pintu and duduk sorang2 kat umah tu. Sejak biler ntah si budak Yaya nie pindah kat umah Aliza. When I came in takder orang pun. Bilik sumer tutup. So I made myself comfortable and bobal2 ngan Yaya. After 10mins Aliza came out of her room, not dressed yet and I asked her for her wedding pics. Soon after, Ashirah arrived looking all so sweet. Kalau aku lelaki, dh lama masuk meminang tau! She is the perfect lady to marry I tell you! Ntah kenapa lah lelaki zaman sekarang sumer nyer buta2 n tak snap her up fast! Haiz.... Guys... IDIOTS!

Anywho, when we were about to start to watch her Wedding video, then Rah and Nad arrived. Somewhat around 12.15 ada kot. Biasalah Mahirah kan. Her Mum served us spaghetti this year. We left her house at 1.30 pm and went to my place next. My Mum served us laksa. I told her not to cook bt yet she did as her reasoning is this is the first year we jalan on a Sun and so she have no reason not to cook. (Mum works mah... so other day, she can't cook). We went to Nad's then 'Asy's place next. Then proceeded to Ashirah's place where her Mum served Nasi Tomato and all the werks lah. We then went to Rah's place and ended it with Yaya's place where her Mum served us Soto Ayam. Kenyanggggggggggggg beb!

I reached home at 9.30. This is by far the most relaxed Raya experienced we had. We are back early. (Some years we left the last house at 1am man!) We covered 7 houses some more. Kalau Afni and Herni ada pun, nt that late. And each house we spend around 1 hour ada. Best-best, lain kali macam gini pun bagus.

So what do I think? Hmmm.... I dunno. I still can't find it in me to forgive some people so jangan haraplah ada the "Maaf Zahir Batin" tagline kat blakang the "Selamat Hari Raya". I don't believe in saying setakat for the sake of saying it tp tk meant anything. But overall, it's still oklah. Tgk lah how it goes. Maybe tunggu aku meletup, dah sumpah seranah puas-puas, semua dah kluar, baru ley ok kot... Macam kes ngan Nat. Now we can be friends again.

So, dear gentle readers (step Mr V lak aku nie!),
how did your weekend go?
