Ella The Cat

Assalamualaikum.......and hyena eberibodi!

Ada la, hari Ahad lepas-lepas...saya pergi Midvalley Megamall. Ada cat exhibition. Saya sebagai seorang yang suke kucing dan binatang, pergi la dengan Din. Pastu kan, tak pasal-pasal Din pergi register Ella untuk the next cat exhibition. Saya pikir, bior betul incik Din ni...konfiden betul pi register Ella-the-saiko-cat tu. Bende pertama saya pikir ialah, 'can Ella behave properly at the pertandingan'. Memang Ella tu saiko sket ok! Masa dia baik dan manja tu, memang baik la. Kalo datang hangin dan saiko dia tu, dia akan bertukar kepada resaksa kecil bermata besar, yang berlari seperti pelesit...yang tidak mendengar cakap dan suke mengasah gigi sendiri (grinding her teeth). Kadang kala dia akan mengunyah bulu karpet yang tercabut, dan menelannye dan kami akan kelam kabut mengejar Ella untuk mengorek kembali bulu karpet itu (takot la tercekik ke, tersimpul dalam perut ke), tapi dia akan berlari seperti pelesit entah ke mana.


(She wants to type something)

Anyway, back to the cat exhibition thingy. So, dah register tu, means some work for me. Saya bawak dia pergi cucuk vaksin dan makan ubat. Ubat kutu pun letak lebih dose. Risau jugak kot-kot kang kutu hilang, sekali dengan bulu-bulu dia plak jadi togel cam sphinx cat. Mampos! Tapi nampak sume ok skang. Sehari sebelum pertandingan, kasi mandi, sikat-sikat lebih kurang. Thats it.

Last Sunday 5/7 is her pertandingan. Lepas register, the vets checked her kutu, her tail, her paws, her teeth, her ears and face and she passed the first screening. Lepas tu they announced, 'Para tuan kucen, sile kuor sbb para juri nak bwat judging dah skang'. I dont have high hope on her. Sebab memang ada kucen lain lagi hebat. Bulu lagi lebat sampai tak nampak rupe kucen...you'll be like, is that a cat, or a walking cotton ball!...well, its a cat. Or, is that a cat or a baby tiger!....well, its a cat. I think Ella is cute and all (all cat is cute)...but i dont put any hope or pressure on Ella.

Tapi kan, bile masuk balik tu kan, we got so surprised when we found out Ella got number 2!....hahahha. Waddaya know! There is a ribbon on her cage and she got a little trophy in her cage! So cute! Ella dapat nombor 2 untuk category Female Domestic Longhair over 1 year old.

Memang agak terkejut la kan. Sebab saya takde la jaga dia sakan sangat. I have my own life....hahaha. I dont want to be like the crazy lady at the end of the street with 40 cats. Jaga dia cam biasa je. Bagi dia punya ubat yang memang dalam jadual. Sikat bulu dia pun jarang-jarang....eheh. Padahal dengan bulu dia yang banyak tu, it is recommended to comb her hair every day. But i guess she's happy and fine and that shows in her apperance and health which makes her the number 2.



Well, i guess she tried her best to behave. Because it is a very tensed environment for cats. The noise is horrible. Dengan manusia sekeliling yang terjerit-jerit, dengan bunyi bende-bende jatuh la, bunyi speaker yang meletup2...ntah macam2 lagi. Kesian gak dengan dia. Dah la tak boleh tidur (kucing suke tidur siang) dengan bunyi bising-bising segala, dengan perangai manusia yang melebih kucing yang masuk pertandingan tu. Nak je aku sumbat orang-orang yang kecoh tu dlm sangkar. Pulak tu lagi kucing sume tak boleh makan/minum the whole time. Sebab dia orang tak mahu kucing berkumuh (bukan berkumur) dalam sangkar. I know Ella was stressed and tired and hungry......and in a freakin bad mood.

One time, she even hissed at me! At me!....ampeh punye budak ni (nak je jentik telinga dia, tapi takot orang nampak), Kalo anak aku memang dah kena piat telinga. Nasib baik kucing. (yer, saya memang akan menjadi seorang ibu yang garang, insyaAllah). Rasa bersalah jugak bile kite pergi makan, but the cats stay hungry, thirsty and tired in the cages. And the people who came to see the exhibition can be so cruel. They will poke-poke the cat and tarik2 bulu (Meh aku poke mata kau, nak? Tarik and cabut sume bulu kaki kau ke. Mau?) So we stay close to the cage. So that Ella can see us nearby. Well, alas....the little girl won number 2 and we got a big supply of cat food.

Its funny, that we want the cat to enter the competition, but it only leave the cats feeling miserable. Doesnt matter, we got the cats food....which is worth hundreds of ringgit. Its an interesting experience for us too. Congrats Ella.....ehhehe.

Till my next post....x0x0

Hello and Hye ena

So, weekend is here huh? Yaaawwnn.......ok.....doesnt matter, cos its a working weekend for me. Sleepy slow weekend. Its my cycle, to work in alternate weekends. Im used to this. Great thing is, there is no Monday blues for me next week....only Monday wohooss!...hahaha. And some more, i will only work on Weds and Thurs. How cool is that?

When we're in working environment, we always communicate in English, right? The emails in English, communicating between colleagues mostly in English, communicating with bosses would be in English. In fact, this all starts in Uni time. Communicating with lecturers was done mostly in English. Answering exam would be in English. Essays, assignments...all in English. The texbooks all in English. I tried reading a malay book on programming, and hell no i dont understand. I also found malay Physics book when i studied Advance Physics in Uni.....nope, its really strange that i cant understand my own language. Its all because they use malay terms....which really sounds unfamiliar.

Programming = Pengaturcaraan.......get it?

So...is it weird that i feel i cant communicate and convey my ideas in plain Bahasa Melayu well? The other day, i was at office, lepak by the balcony. Me and my friends we were talking about Birkinstock shoes and I said the shoes are comfortable. And suddenly Sukh ask:

'Genggaman dia ok tak?'

And i look at him weird.

'Genggaman?'

'The grip of the shoes. Tapak dia ok ke?.....what do u call 'grip' in malay? Genggaman right?'

'Oo0o0o....grip of the shoes! yeah man, the grip is fine.'

Like example of conversation above, what would u call 'grip' in malay? It is 'genggaman' right? It is suppose to be a usual word right? But why does genggaman sounds funky there? Is there any other unfunky word to describe the grip of a tapak kasut? Or do u think is sounds fine?

Isnt it funny when we find the word in Malay is too bombastic. Padahal memang selalu cakap BM (tapi bahasa pasar). Like Sukh said, 'after several years using English, speaking simple malay also can sound bombastic.' I think it happens like this cos BM can be so pasar. English is a bit more steady. It does not have to much sleaziness in the language.

What Sukh said made me laugh, cos its absolutely true. We have been using English as our (almost) primary language for some years already, which I, sometimes cant find a proper word in Malay. I sometimes feel English language has more accurate word than Malay. Im not doing a Sharifah Amani stunt here (remember Sharifah Amani once said, speaking in malay makes her sound stupid...and then everybody slammed her the very next morning in the papers? even the menteri kesenian makes his remarks on what she said). No, im not pulling 'a Sharifah Amani' here.

There is a lot of beauty in BM. But i just think BM can be too pasar, that when u tried using a proper word in Malay, it sounds bombastic. Of course I can still speak malay. I can speak proper malay but i dunno why, i felt like it sounds a bit......funky. Because like i say, sometimes malay words dont come out right. Just like the word 'genggaman' up there.

Take care all........xOxO

Me, a fiancee

Hye yena!

Currenly im down with fever. Malam ni keje plak tu kan. MC dah amik semalam, tapi lom sembuh2 lagik! Its viral fever cos its getting at my body rreeeeaaally slowly. I had it before and i know how bad it is. I had fever sometimes but not this bad, and when its bad, i know its viral. Lambat sembuh and also very la the hotness...huhuuh. Last time i got viral fever, was last year. Horrible and every nite my temperature would be soaring like an eagle in the sky. 39-40 C and my body would be very weak.

Nasib baik tak rosak otak dan jadi retard kan....eh wait, now that got me thinking...hhm mm =p.

Viral fever, got a class on its own. It is on its own....no flu, no coughing included. Its in its own package - viral fever. Try not to get caught of viral fever, ok.

Anyway.....

Last 30/05/09, me and Din has decided to tie a 'loose knot'.....we were engaged. Well, me and Din has a very long history. I've known him 7 years ago. And during that 7 years, there is good time and there is turbulent time (horrible lowest time in my life). And at certain time, i think i can never ever love him back. Tapi ini la kite kata takdir tuhan. Dia bukak hati kite, and we accept it and it happened to be the greatest thing.

Thank you everybody who manage to came. Farrah, Khom, Marini, Piza, Ros, Suraya, Farah, Ila and Manchett dan hubby mereka. Oh dan Ariz Zafir yang masih dlm perut Ila time tu...haha. Esok lusa tu terus Ila terberanak...hehe.

Awaiting my other friends' turn.... =)

Take care.....x0x0
