[ What's Niu With Us? ]

So much of planning to go to Dyda's wedding in Melaka, I end up having a slight fever, no thanks to the sesi berpiknik sampai tengah malam the night before.

But it was worth it.
Updates on the picnic will follow suit, that's for sure :)

And to Dyda, I'll try to make up at Afez's side.
Aci tak?

*suke suki je nak gi reception belah laki ha ha*

Neways, Sunday morning at home selalunye akan melihat kami anak beranak bersarapan luar.
Mana lagi kalau bukan kat Chapati Corner di Jalan Rasah tuh.

But this time was like the first since Ayah got home from Hajj.
So memasing cam excited lebeh ape hal ntah ha ha.

After ordering the usuals, we talked while waiting and this topic came up and I felt like sharing.
Oh well, the conversations are lebih kurang, since you can't expect me to remember the exact words!

Umie : Oo, nak tau tak, arituh Mr. Tan bagitau what animals we are according to the chinese calendar. This year would be our year, kan Yah?

Ayah : Yeahhh, tahun seladang. Ox. So this year, sila berwaspada ah anak-anak ayah neh semua.

Me : Er, perlu ke?

Umie : Ye lah, each animal represents our personality lebih kurang.

Me : So camtuh, ox ape yeh? Rajin?

Umie pandang semacam, like hello, lagi mau question ke kerajinan dia ha ha.
Ampun Along,mi!

Ayah : Hahaha, rajin, hardworking, kuat, cam umie la the ox neh. Kalau ayah, bau je cam kobauu!!*

*Kobau - kerbau; similar or satu keluarga gak ah dengan seladang/lembu.

All : Hahahahahaha!

Me : Bestuh, yang lain-lain? Adik? Abang?

Umie : Adik ular...

Me : (Menyampuk) NO WONDER!! Slithery, lidah cabang!! Dengan umi cakap lain, dengan along lain, dasar ularrrrrrrrrrrrrr nye budak!

Okeh, at this point ntah kenape kak long emo semacam ha ha sila sepak.
She always has issues dengan adik kecik dia, adeeeeeeeeeee je nak cari gaduh ha ha.

Adik : Manadeeeeeeeeeeeeee....

Umie : No, it meant she'll get what she wants no matter what la kirenye. Cam biarpun susah senang, she glide thru.

Me : Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeee la tuh. Abang?

Ayah : Abang tiger. Aki tiger!

Aki : (sengeh tunjuk gigi arnab) Ye ke? Sebab tu ke kite kene panggil aki tiger dari kecik?

Me : Tiger la sangat. Takde ciri tiger langsung. Lembik je. Makan roti tisu je lak tuh. Orang makan ah chapati ke, puree, neh tak, roti tisu.

Ha, as usual kak long ntah ape kene keje nak ngutuk adik sendiri je isk isk.
Kakak apekah saya neh?
T____T

Umie : (ignoring my bebels) Angah lak, monkey. Memang it fits him well. Someone who doesnt appreciate what he gets...

Me : ...but very entertaining. Amusing.

Ayah : Troublesome but cheeky. Nak marah tapi sayang.

Umie : Cam kera dapat bunga la. Dapat kerja elok-elok dah, pegi wat unit trust plak.. tau tak ape citer dia yang..

Me : ..aaa, tau tau. Ayah baruuuu je bagitau Along tadi.

Umie : Hmm.

Ayah : Monyet betul.

Me : Hahahahaha, tengok Angah monyet, sape bapak monyet sekarang?

All : (Gelak kuat sukehati ingat kedai tuh kiteorang yang punya gaknye!)

Me : Bestu Along pe, mi?

Umie : Along anjing.

OoOOooOo, masa neh cam sentap tetibe.
Ingatkan Umie panggil along anjing, sekali ada tahun anjing gak dalam kalendar cina tuh, deng yo!
Ce bayangkan if i was born in the pig year and umie cakap - Along babi.

Me : Hah?

Ayah : Tahun anjing kamu lahir.

Me : Er.. and? Anjing ape? Tau menyalak je? Kire in my case, Along kuat nanges ah yeh? Ha?

Ayah & Umie : Loyalllllllllty lah!

Me : Hee.

Masa neh tetibe bangga jadi anjing.
Eh, I mean lahir tahun anjing ha ha.
Wah, kira i'm a female dog, which means, I'm a beeyatchhhhh?

Haha.

Umie : Anjing kan is a man's best friend.. setia.

Me : Hee.

Seriously, tolong sepak Along time neh.
Muka sengih bangga tak habis-habis lagi.

Ayah : Tu je la satu kot ciri anjing ade pada kamu. Loyalty.

Me : Sangat setuju ah saya hahahaha.

Ayah : Sukenyeeeeeeeeeee dia.

Me : Sukeeeeeeeeee la. Alang ape lak, mi?

Umie : Alang umie lupe nak tanye, masa tuh da nak masuk kelas. Ntah la, alang ape yeh?

Me : Jom teka. Along bajet dia tikus.

Ayah : Sebab suka makan?

Me : Hahahahahahahaha, tak ah, kan dia cam rajin. Rajin carik makanan. Hahaha.

Umie : Umie rasa dia tikus gak kot. Ape lagi bintang yang ada?

Ayah : Rabbit? Ha, ba alip ba ya kot dia?

Umie : Hahahaha, dua dua tuh tak kot. Rabbit orang kata kuat kikis duit. Tapi macam ya jugak. Eh tak. Semua anak umi rabbit, abes dah duit besarkan derang!!

Me : Hahahahahahaha!

Ayah : Ayah rasaaaa...alang neh la, kambing kot. Sebab dia susah mandi.

Then our food came and we went talking about it but still tak dapat gak teka which animal fits Alang.

Only when we reached home, Umie went straightaway looking for the kalendar kuda which has the Chinese zodiac on it that we knew what is Alang's.

Can you peeps guess which is hers?
*wah tetibe cam rasa soklan rancangan pendidikan kanak-kanak*



Hint : Alang's is the same as one of us listed above that you'll be surprised which.



Happy Niu(Ox) Year, everyone!
Happy birthday, Ajat :)
