Discovery day! (haha..tajuk ni klakar giler..cant think of the most suitable one)

I don’t know. Sumtimes we never realized just how lucky we are being surrounded with nice people around us. And the time we discovered it, a simple smile would explains how we feel ;)


Noon discovery

I went to accompany mom for her 2nd urut. All these while, everything were only listening, but no meeting. So when I heard mom had her session being scheduled this weekend, I didn’t want to blow the chance to meet this lady.

What ive heard about her were actually half of the glass. The other half is she’s one of the nicest Surabaya ladies I’ve ever met with. Tutur kata dia sangat lembut. Rajin. Even the daughter is just the same. …(orang jawa asli emang kayak gitu loh). They had welcomed us with their sweet smiles purely coming from their hearts, as if to say “masuklah, makanlah, minumlah wahai tetamu kami dalam rumah yang serba apa adanya ini”.

Ketika si ibu sibuk mengurut orang, anaknya dah pun selesaikan masakan tengah hari yang hanya tinggal untuk dijamah sahaja oleh ibunya & keluar semula untuk bekerja mencuci. Itulah rutin harian si anak to make sure that they can still survive living. Sebelum sempat pergi, aku & mak dijamu pula dengan air teh. Diajak lagi oleh si ibu. Kali ni untuk makan nasi pula walaupun hidangan itu mungkin hanya cukup untuk dia seorang. MasyaAllah…inilah orang yang hatinya tulus sekalipun dalam hidupan yang sangat sederhana. Semoga Allah permudahkan rezeki bagi mereka. ;)


Nite discovery (I)

Wedding lagi. Adoi. Letih. Cerita aku boleh kenal dengan pengantin ni memang agak lawak sebenarnya which tak boleh nak diterangkan disini sebab terlalu berjela…huhu. Even though we've been knowing each other for quite some time (last 2 yrs kot), tapi name dia pun aku baru tau last week. Itupun dpt reminder sms. Sebab awal awal dah di-rsvp-kan, jadi harus datang ;p

Last minute plak Yanti cancelled to follow since she might be going back quite late from Genting. Ring mek tett, gi facial pulak. Ring ayu, hehe..berjaya.

So we went to the wedding and terbangak bangak sebab tak kenal saper saper except for one person. No. Two! Including the bride. Well, there were few familiar faces that I knew but never care to know the names (biase la aku kan….).

Anyhoo, endless congratulations to both of u - Karthi & Rajiv. May u live happily as husband & wife. A nice wedding. An applausive one as well. First time nih attend wedding ade buat magic show. Jangan main main ok, got burung u know. Oh ya! Api also got. Tapi itu janggut ade siket terbakar la macha. But its okay, overall it was an enjoying performance. Also, thanks to u Shiken yang always cantek for making us felt very much welcomed.. ;)


Nite discovery (II)

After the wedding, we headed straight to Glenmarie for another function plaks. Ayu’s officemate baru masuk rumah baru & ni nak attend the house-(yang giler babs punyer cantik!!!)-warming la.

Pendekkan cerita, tak sia sia kami membiarkan perut ini diisi lagi dan lagi dan lagi dan lagi dan lagi sampai gemok in attending the back-to-back functions. Bukan pasal makanan sedap sedap, tapi hati yang sangat terkesima atau keternikmatan atau amazed having to look at the houses & cars owned by the residences. I got easily hooked-on with the fascinating ambience. Two words – MAK TADOK. We were almost mistaken porches/ferraris for hills of sands & cements! Ade la gak nampak Myvi & Kelisa kat situ, tapi aku rase tu sume keter maid diaorang kot………

FYI, ive been to several country height residences in M’sia but none of them are as classy as this one. The 75-resort-like-modern-bungalows-only area is developed under a hotel (can’t be mentioned here for specific purpose…sori). Expat mat salleh pun ade 4 orang je yang menyewa kat situ which the rent itself pun dah berbelas/puluhan ribu. Besides Malaysian buyers, Singoporeans are among the residents here & some of them let it for rent. Huge investment huh! Ade these 2 bungalows located just next to each other, bought by best friends. They had their wall (which separates the 2 roofs) removed & renovating it into a damn swimming pool! Lumayan buanget nih…. ;D

Back to Ayu’s officemate’s house-warming...no..i think I should say bungalow-warming, it was a very classy yet cosy one. She was so kind & so willing to bring us touring the whole house. From the front door til the back door. From downstairs to upstairs. From the living rooms to the jacuzzi. Mata aku tak berkelip kelip tengok every single details of the decors. Mulut aku tak berenti renti cakap – “cantiknyerrrrr yu”. Ni stock orang kaya yang ade taste dan sangat independent. They all buat sendiri semua. From the researching until decorating the house. "Penat tapi berbaloi" said her. Totally not datinz/toh puanz common styles. Kami berdua terpaksa admit kami agak peghak habeh jugaklah mase tu..eheh.

Alrite, here comes the interviewing part. Really like this one! ;D
- the house motive is classic contemporary
- cool couple as akak ni & the hubby share the same passion in house decorating. they luv to travel all the way to foreign countries just to gain fresh ideas as well as adding unique materials to their current collections.
- obviously the arrangements & house accesories ideas are coming from they had had experienced.
- the water feature is literally different than what we’ve been exposed in M’sia. Simen biase je pun, tapi husband & wife ni memang terror kan…so tak yah citer lebih lebih la.
- another awesome fact is that the fabulous interior design artworks were done by the hubby’s most admired Javanese designer, Jaya Ibrahim which u can actually tell by the hotel-like custom made furniture. Simple yet minimalistically sophisticated.
- expectantly, almost all the things were bought in Jakarta & have been shipped here.
- dengan katil anak anak pun built-in. bilek maid2 dia jer aku tak sempat nak audit.
- tempat buang sampah dia pun modern! boleh??!??
- music can be played from the master bedroom & to be listened while relaxing at the house lawn.
- and yadayadayada.....

I just don’t get at how some people could invite others to admire/appreciate their belongings without having the show-off-attitude. And everyone seems to absorb and agree of their pure humbleness & the feeling of sharing.

*yawn* and *yawn* lagi. no wonder…its already 4 in the morning. so kiter mimpi rumah cantek malam ni… nighty nite..

Zzzzzzz………….
