Raya MooOod

Was it last year that hari raya and chinese new year were celebrated together?.. Anyway, we called it 'Kongsi (Gong Xi) Raya" which kinda rhyme and meaningful too. However for this year, some joker told me that deepavali and hari raya celebrating together is known as "Kongsi gelap".. HAHhaaA.. No offense. Just joking. The real name for this festive season is " Deeparaya."

In conjuction with Hari Raya tomorrow and as a "proud" mAlaysian, I'm gonna show how muhibbah I am by blogging in Malay. WoOoHoOO~

APer khabar semuo??.. Ku nak tunjukkan kefasihanku dalam bahasa melayu. Ngek ngek ngek. Agak karat kerano sudah berbulan-bulan tidak menggunakan bahasa melayu kecuali menulis "crapz". Okay, mari saya mula dengan aktivitiku pada hari ni.

Pagi-pagi kubangun tengok tv. Kemudian pergi makan. Hanya ku dengan ibubapaku kerano adik bongsuku, Kenneth pergi ke Tanah Tinggi Genting bersama-sama pakcik-pakcikku yang datang dari Singapura dan Pulau Pinang. Adik sulungku pulak pergi main bola bakul (ermm.. forgot what's basketball in b.m..) Oh oh.. bola keranjang [ i actually asked my dad and suprisingly he knows!!] Aihs.. I'm actually butchering B.M. Better stop before Dewan Bahasa and Pustaka folks write me a formal letter, stating my tatabahasa and etc mistakes.

So, after breakfast, my mum said she wants to buy biscuits and paint. Boring~ Therefore, I asked them to send me home but they continued pestering me to follow them since according to them, I'll go back and sleep , which is 50/50 true. I finally changed my mind bcos today is also my dad's birthday and I was "provoked-ted" [there's no such word but sounds cool rite?]. I felt kinda sad for my dad cos his favourite son is in Genting. Back to buying biscuits. They tricked me! My parents didn't tell me the blady biscuits or kueh watever were all the way in Kepong. FIne fine. The trip there was quite an eye-opening affair because I didn't know that such a small town can have so many restaurants. Seriously! Many as in there's about 5 to 6 restaurants in one row of shoplots. Some restaurants are old houses converted into restaurants. My dad said the place looks like Cambodia but a better version. Hahaha. I'm not saying they're poor because I saw a few Streams, Hondas etc. Just that the condition and houses there resemble Cambodia a bit. Anyway, Kepong is Chinese territory, which means mostly businessmen/chinese ah-peks/kiamsiap/kiasu/super rich but nobody knows. So the biscuits or actually kueh is called " tit pan something". I call it healthy food because they dont use oil to cook it. It's just flat dough with fillings like peanut and coconut cook on a pan. We reached there quite early, about 12. 45 pm and the store supposed to open at 1.oo pm. So, have to wait for 25 minutes more (taking out the stuff and preparations). There's 3 Singapore ladies who bought like 30 pieces each. After the 30 minutes journey and 25 minutes wait, have to say it's worth waiting ler.

Then we did some groceries and went home. Spend the whole day at home, revising my work and sleeping.( yes backo, I'm getting tired and a tee-bit intimidated by ppl's blog. Arggh!... shouldn't have read theirs!!)

Today's highlight is dinner at Victoria Station. Dad's treat. Did him a beautiful card. No money to buy present but he's a simple man. A card is enough to make him happy. My dad is quite conservative but he's cool in many sense. Very blur and funny too at times. He can be very stubborn. Guess i got the stubborn gene from him. Not only the stubborn gene but dark skin too. Cis. Anyway, I wish him great health, great wealth (untungkan me also), great life and all the good good things. Happy 54th birthday dad!.. [ i know he wont knoe this cos i doubt tht he knows what is blog but heck.] Note aside: It is only me or most Asians find it hard to express their love to their parents or family members? Westerners do it often without feeling shy but somehow I still feel awkward. HahahAHA. Guess I'm quite conservative too. I feel better writing my feelings than expressing it face-to-face.

Anyway, wanna see my meal?? HAHhaha. If you can't see, too bad lerh.


Mexican hot chilli soup for appetiser, sumptuous lobster with loads of cheese, which cost bout RM19.90 PER 100 gramme i think and succulent steak with mushroom + beef crumbles gravy and chocolate ice-cream for dessert....
