Alkisah..

Di suatu hari...

B2: Bi... bila kita nak gi tengok meme? (my late mom)

Bb: Nanti kita gi ye...

B2: Ok, adik nak bagi bunga la dekat meme... boleh tak?

Bb: (dah sudah... dia start dah)... err adik tanya mama..

B2 pun pegi la dekat mama yang dok lipat baju....

B2: Ma...

Mama: Ye..

B2: Adik nak gi kubur meme... adik nak bagi bunga dekat meme...

Mama: (ni la influence TV.. adeh... apa la nak jawab ni... come on.. hurry up... think...!)
Bb: (dok sengeh tengok and tunggu mama bagi jawapan. Hampes Bb)

Mama: Adik, kita orang Islam tak bagi bunga macam tu untuk orang dah meninggal... kita bagi cara lain..

B2: Macamana mama?

Mama: Meme kan dah meninggal kan? Kalau adik bagi bunga dekat meme, adik letak atas kubur aje kan?

B2: Haah... *nodding her head*

Mama: Tapi meme dah meninggal, macamana nak ambik bunga tu?

B2: Tapi adik nak bagi bunga dekat meme... (dah start sebek dah), nanti meme nampak la adik boh bunga dekat situ..

Mama: Memekan dah tak de, tak nampak la adik bagi bunga. Betul tak?

B2: *Nodding* tapiii....

Mama: tapi adik nak bagi bunga jugak?

B2: *Nodding*

Mama: Ok, macam ni la. Kita orang islam, kalau nak bagi bunga, special sikit. Tak payah boh bunga dekat kubur...

B2: *looked very confused* habis tu...?

Mama: Macam ni... kalau adik nak bagi bunga dekat meme, adik doa dekat Allah macam ni "Ya Allah, ampunkan dosa meme, tempatkan lah meme bersama orang2 beriman dan masukkan la meme dalam syurga" (panjang2 kang susah lak dia nak follow). Lepas tu bila Allah dengar doa adik tu.. Allah pun bagi la bunga dekat meme, dia kata bunga tu dari adik. Adik faham tak? (adeh... susah jugak ni)

B2: Allah bagi bunga dekat meme?

Mama: haah, kalau orang islam, tak payah beli bunga, kita doa aje, bila Allah dengar lepas tu Allah bagi la bunga dekat meme. Doa kita... bunga untuk meme.. (aduh... betul ke apa yg aku buat ni?).

B2: oooo so tak payah boh bunga dekat kubur, adik doa.. lepas tu Allah bagi bunga dekat meme lps tu kata adik yang bagi...?

Mama: Haah.. betul... adik doa aje untuk meme, meme dapatla bunga dari adik...

B2: ok.. adik doa sekarang... *lari sembunyi belakang dinding, tak tau la apa yang didoakan*

Upin & Ipin (27th & 28th Sept)

My kids are Upin and Ipin diehard fans. They just love Upin & Ipin animations showed during Ramadhan at TV9. We got to know about them from Kasma (kawan Xpin - eh blh jadi geng lak Upin Ipin and Xpin... HAHAHAHA) only after hari raya last year. So kira miss la the actual show. Sekali aje tengok, both the kids dah jatuh cinta. Especially bila Ipin sebut Betul betul betul..

Anyway since the kids betul2 minat, we bawak them to the roadshow at Plaza Masalam on the 27th Sept (Sat). Hari bersama Upin & Ipin they called it. Its more like a booth selling Upin & Ipin's product with a few activities for the kids to participate. B1 awal2 lagi dah bgtau, I want to joint the coloring competition. (we received the program listing masa Xpin borong dkt kedai Upin & Ipin hehehehe) B2 was just happy to be there. Actually ni the second week dia buat. We miss the first week sebab apa ek..? I think sebab B1 was admitted before that so I dont have time to surf etc etc... lame excuse kan.?! hehehe

But... the kids suka sangat2.. They met 'K.Ros', 'Fizi' and 'Meimei'. B2 met Cikgu Jasmin at the shop, but tak ambik gambar.You can read about it at their official website - Minggu ke 2 di Plaza Masalam

Coloring - L-R B2, B1

B1 won 1st Prize. Yipee..!


B1 with Upin & Ipin mascot. (B2 dok nangis dkt tepi sbb takut. Dia kata Upin dgn Ipin patut kecik aje... hehehe sian dia.)



B1 and B2 with the voices behind Upin & Ipin animation characters
L-R - K.Ros, Fizi, Meimei and Upin & Ipin (the girl in green, yg boy tu adiknye)

We spent 1/2 of the day there, panas yang amat. Both kids puasa but demi Upin & Ipin, sanggup tu. At first B2 was rather afraid of K.Ros, sbb K.Ros garang dlm cerita. But then she's ok. Dia mmg takut sikit dgn orang garang. Not to say that K.Ros tu garang in person, but I think dia berjaya memainkan dan menjiwai watak K.Ros betul2 sampai budak2 pun takut dgn dia. Which only means 1 thing - she's good.

We went again the next day to meet Upin & Ipin (B2 dah tak takut dgn Upin & Ipin besar dia kata) but the show was cancelled. I think because ramai yang dah balik raya. So tak berapa ramai orang yang ada.

Thanks to Upin & Ipin, both my kids are talking about how to get more pahala, and nak masuk syurga. Alhamdulillah. Salah satu sebab B2 berjaya puasa penuh tahun ni. Tapi taun sudah pun mmg dah puasa ok.

Memula tengok dkt pirate CD, but demi sokongan kepada Upin & Ipin, we already bought both of their DVDs, Selamat Hari Raya and Setahun Kemudian.

p/s - Ok Ok I admit.. I'm a die hard fan too .. *blush*
p/ss - B1 bgtau dia nak ganti puasa dia tertinggal sbb sakit hari tu. Siap pesan, kalau mama nak puasa ajak kakak sekali tau, kakak nak ganti puasa. Alhamdulillah... bagus anak mama ni...

Eid Mubarak 2008

This year raya up north and this raya is very special.. why..? Bcoz, first time beraya with complete family (after 2 years without a mom). Yes, it was fun.. Here is the rumusan of hari raya holidays.

• (29/09) Trip balik was on Monday evening. Hujan lebat almost all the way.. from Shah Alam to Kedah. Reached Sg Perak, break our fast then head to Parit Buntar to have our proper food. Hehehe
• (30/09) Pagi2 dah bangun, went straight to market, balik rumah, cooked for buka puasa and raya. The single ladies bertungkus lumus buat ketupat palas.
  
• (01/10) Hari Raya yeahh!! Solat raya, then picture taking time, head straight to Junjung (near kulim) beraya di 3 rumah, then to Sedim - 2 rumah.
• (02/10) Trip to Perlis (late mom hometown), jumpa tok umi, then to Enan's tok wan's house for makan2 time. Spend the nite at haunted house... hehehe
  
• (03/10) Back ache (uwaaa). A trip to Padang Besar. Tak shopping pun, jalan2 aja. Kids main bunga api. Another nite at haunted house... hehehehe
  
• (04/10) Worse Back ache.. (adus). To Pak Njang house at Sg Petani, then head home.

Adik berjaya puasa full this year, bravo girl. No hadiah from us, just from her atuk.. rm60 (rm2 for each day she puasa). Kakak tak penuh, dapat 25 hari aje disebabkan sakit and admitted hari tu. So kay kakak, bukan kakak yang mintak sakit kan? :).
