yesterday was Papa's birthday... we were supposed to go out for dinner at Straits Kitchen (coz Papa and Mummy loved that place, I can't comprehend y) with our spouses and not forgetting Thaqeef. However, we were not able to reserve tables coz it was all booked out! I cannot understand Singaporeans...damn kiasu...they book one month in advance is it? I called Kintamani and the nice man on the phone told me the same thing.."Sorry Maam..we don't have any places left!" well, anyway Papa said we ate too much already during the Phuket trip plus this weekend , we have lots of jemputans...so diet first and then dinner next week. Ok lor... by the way Happy Bday Papa! *muacks* I Lap u , Daddy!
As always my weekdays packed with watching tv ...particularly...Oprah Winfrey...at 9am and 1pm. My hubby says I am wasting my time watching a liar on tv. I don't know how he got that idea...and I have never listened to his reasons coz I just love Oprah! To think that she rose up from nothing to becoming the most successful talkshow host in history. The things she bring up in her show are really close to our heart. Yesterday was on America's Debt Diet. Three families volunteered to divulge to America their debts. One family in particular who had an annual income of 110, 000 had a 170,000 debt. Where r they going to get the bucks to pay those debt? Although they are near bankruptcy, they have 5 cars, a big house and spends 7k on mum's hair alone! Like this Malay peribahasa, Gajah Berak Besar, Kancil pun hendak berak besar...to put it crudely. Just get rid of the 5 cars, and mind you these cars r the expensive ones like Dodgers and Beemers. And the house, just get a smaller one, this house they have is like a mansion and they are only a family of four!
I just cannot understand some people. They spend beyond their means just so people can look up to them. What is there in a status? Yes, people awe and respect you...but after a few praises here and there, that's it...people don't help you to pay for all these stuff right? And then, we have people who just think they are great just because they have more material things on display. Come on, those are just possessions...if you afford it...by all means have it but don't brag! Think about those who wants it but can't have it...If u ask me... of course I would love to have a Lamborghini, a mansion with a kidney shaped pool with 4 maids in waiting... and not forgetting a fat bank account to match. But do I have it? Can I have it? No.
On the subject of bragging... I have this auntie who goes around with a big mouth, a cousin who thinks he's the greatest and many more to match. I was just telling my parents yesterday... these people r nothing... probably the uneducated ones who thinks having a big bonus is a sign of wealth and having a Honda Civic means you are high up on the strata. Come on we know who pays for the car...we know your son is now retrenched and has no stable income at this moment...You talk and malice other people ...but people are sneering behind your back... My hubby , the patient and wise one ...heard a lot of comments ... he does talk abt it to me... he laughed at them and says things like... "Biarkanlah yang... dorang ingat dorang bagus.. let them think and dream abt it..." My hubby also the quiet one laughs at their comments and at times he do throw in a few punchlines like , " Oh kereta kau bagus eh...siapa bayar monthly instalments?" or "Bonus banyak eh...eh government servant semua dapat sama kan.." or "Kita ada niat jugak nak beli kereta besar...tapi kau nak bayarkan aku punya monthly?" That's my hubby... he may be quiet...but his words do sting...hahha... Just a few weeks back, me, mummy, papa, Najib and Kalah Kiah went to JB for a wedding. There was this auntie who serang us and said undesirable things just because I offered Kalah Kiah to get a ride from us... I am pissed till now... Sidq, u can tell mum abt it....I am still pissed. This auntie has no right to dictate who Najib and me should take with us... I am a person who don't forget budi... When our car was involved in an accident, and my parents had to go to JB on their own.... who offered the ride to them? It was Kalah Kiah's family ok... They even brought my parents for shopping and so on ... But my parents who have dirikan this auntie's wedding... didn't even offer my parents a ride in their rented MPV. When my parents went for Haj, Kalah Kiah and Mamu Jamal's family was the one who stayed with us during petang raya to accompany us because they don't want us to get sad during takbir... Farouk even fetched us on the morning of Raya Haji to have our raya meals at their house in the morning... think about it... How can I repay such kindness? Their family is so close to us...that at times.. I think my mum and Kalah Kiah are like siblings... or me, Murni, Sidq, Farouk, Rahim and Firdaus are like brothers and sisters... I've got eyes and I've got a big brain to match that... I know who's being nice for nothing and who's being nice like udang sebalik batu... my parents have always scolded me and told me to forget it and let it be ...but as everyone knows... I don't forget evilness and kindness that easily.
Mamu sana Mamu sini... habuk pun tak de... kalau susah cari bapak aku... pasal apa? Bapak aku aje yang boleh diharap kan? Sudah lah.. dulu aku kecil bolehlah kau ching...sekarang no way...
