GE2004 and ida's do

Finally back to my normal life

Last week, while the Malaysians are busy discussing, reading, blogging, debating and joking about GE2004, my family and i was busy preparing for my cousin ida's wedding. Nonetheless, most of ppl involved went back to Kelantan just in time for voting, so dont blame/praise them for the state's election result. In fact, we watched the result announcement very closely throughout the nite together, and together means continuous phonecalls to and fro Kelantan as the master bedroom turns into bilik gerakan kelantan cawangan Subang jaya..
The atmosphere was overwhelming. All of us stayed up for the result (which only came through officially last nite, sadly). Bros were anxiously waiting for the holiday announcement. Dearest was also with us, feeling equally jittery about his homeground, Kedah's fate.

Anyway, that's done. I'm no politician but i'm weirdly looking fwd to the next GE lah. syioklah pulak.

Ok, the wedding. All went well with of course few glitches here and there, noticeable only by us, the organisers. the weather is not helping, so it was a typical wedding.. hot, hot, HOT. i took leave almost the whole week last week to help around ie do the hantarans, the bilik pengantin, siapkan the flower girls dresses and dressing them later, accompanying the bride on the day. was happy that my aunt and the family really appreciate my effort and hence promised the same for mine. As papa put it while carrying the periuk, tables and chairs.. "it's an investment"

so ida, my childhood girlfren is married. she was the one whom i shared all my weird conversation with. my first 'sex talk' at the tender age of 8 (yeah, i do start early) and my passion for 'ais krim payung' (it's home made red bean ice cream in a shape of an umbrella with tiny bits of red bean on top... and it only cost 5cents). this is another thing u get being Kelantanese (in my opinion), u're barely 24 and your peer cousins who used to bath naked with u once are either married or buncit with botol susu in one hand and payung (for anak bini) in the other hand.

that guy's parents was at the wedding. i didnt feel weird or concious around them anymore. they probably have known that i'm with someone else now.

dearest dah start badminton balik. to be back in shape. tak acilah macam ni. have to work something out jugaklah. dia kata kalau kawan2 main futsal campur2, then dia ajak.. but mampukah aku main futsal after sooooooo long meninggalkan all those team games. hahaha.. anyway, mlm ni tgk bola msia-korea.. it's been so bloody long jugak since my last live football match. guess the last was before fly.. tgk msia kena bash by ermm..i cant even remember.
