may the sharks be with you.

last saturday was absurd! the traffic was absurd!!
masa tu la i menyesal memiliki kereta transmisi manual. blardy traffic jam!
apa? semua orang kat kl buat open house at the same time kah?

i slept very late the nite before after sending incek suami off (who had to cover 3 wedding jobs from morning till nite, jengka: nikah, morning - kl: chinese wedding, nite - jengka: kenduri on sunday.. phew! menaip ini je dah penat, apa lagi dia..)

that saturday morning, mister mama dah kejut awal-awal dek kerana tak mau lambat sampai ke venue annual consert my 2 nieces kat sekolah seri cahaya, somewhere in shah alam (kat ceruk lepas area ke big plate, somewhere near kampung melayu subang.. sebelah dengan jirat cina lak tu.. hui.. seriau..) memang dah plan nak pegi sebab nak tengok qistina terima scroll sebab graduate tadika.. haha.

and so, off we went to the place. we were early, the hall was freezing cold, nasib baik bagi zaes pakai long sleeves t-shirt. the 2 girls performed their dance. qistina, being the senior, menari hip hop dance. omg! she was so ligat! sangat cute tapi gambar from billa's cam, takde yang dapat capture masa dia menari. yang clear cuma masa dia amik scroll je. *ehem itupon i sangat berinisiatif untuk ke depan dan snap snap. nak harap billa.. cheh! ehem* and as for dania, surprisingly, masa berlatih kat rumah, nampak macam ada harapan nak tengok rerun last year's concert (she was very outstanding among other kids at that time!), nak-nak pulak, she was given the responsibility to introduced her troop before their performance. well, she did the intro quite well, tapi ada tersekat sana sini, maybe because tiba-tiba stage fright la kot.

but all in all, we enjoyed the show! especially the 1st performance by the pre-schoolers yang below 4 years old. ada sorang budak perempuan tu, masa masuk mula-mula tu, she already started crying and i can see her mouthed, "mummy.. mummy.." tapi bila lagu dah mula, she did the dance routine, tapi masih menangis dan panggil mak dia! dahla gebu, montok and gem gem, lagi la orang geram tengok dia sambil gelak-gelak! she was crying the whole dance, tapi still menari. then bila dah habis, masa orang lain tepuk, dia pon tepuk jugak tapi menangis! how cute was that! sebab enjoy sangat tengok show budak tu, sampai tak ingat nak snap evident (read: malas nak ke depan untuk amik gambar)

then we went straight back since the next agenda was to be at my cousin's place, around 4pm. tapi sampai rumah, billa pulak siap-siap nak pegi open house kawan dia tapi nak suruh i mekap dia dulu. dah mekap-mekap tu, siap pakai bulu mata palsu yang maha berat tu (tula.. awak sibuk sangat nak pakai kan.. amik kau!), dia kata nak ikut sekali sebab she didn't know how to get to her friend's place in ampang. dah la gua sendiri pon tak well-versed dengan jalan-jalan kat kl, i told her to get there on her own since her kawan je's car was around.

tapi, being billa, the spoiled bred (saja eja camni, memang she was bred to be spoiled huh =p). dia nak jugak suruh gua hantar when she knew that i have to be in gombak by 4pm (my cousin suruh mekap dia sebab her company buat open house that nite)

and being the best sister in the whole wide world me, so i agreed to sent her. mister mama didn't want to follow due to the long winding journey before, so i have to brought along lil zaes sebab tak nak mister mama yang tengah pening tu tambah pening jaga dia.

we went out at 3, we took the highway, konon-konon bayar tol ni boleh elak traffic jam la kan. dah lepas tol jalan duta - that was rm5.20 worth of toll -, we took the infamous duke highway - another rm2.00 there - only to found ourselves queuing up from the ampang/ulu kelang exit all the way to ampang indah! and guess what? we reached ampang indah at 5pm!

i continued my journey, since mrr2 dah dekat, i thot i could made my way to gombak in half an hour's time but i took the wrong exit, all the way to jalan tun razak (another rm1.50 wasted!), a lot of cars, but moving, so, i took the setapak route, dengan harapan nak guna duke again, dah masuk duke, i took the wrong way, last-last lalu jalan gombak/sentul/batu caves and again, i was stuck in this bloody traffic madness! masa tu jugak la, petrol tank yang masa mula-mula tadi 4 bars, tiba-tiba blink-blink mintak refuel. ngok!

at last, i reached her place at about 6-ish!! sampai merengkok-liuk-lentuk la jugak si zaes kat passenger's seat! kesian dia, tak habis-habis cakap, "mommey, jam ke? mommey jam eh?" dengan lapar sume.. of course we were hungry sebab the last time i checked, we ate at around 1++pm. dah la tu, makan nasi impit je.


lepas mekap my cousin, (she was rushing too sebab she was supposed there before anyone else) and after melepaskan lelah sekejap, i texted billa, telling her that i'm not gonna brave the blardy traffic again and that she had to find her way back! gua memang brutal dan kejam! muahahaha!

of course, she got mad but managed to tumpang her friends to one utama as i'll be taking the ldp and lalu belah sana pon. tapi tu la, memang traffic hari sabtu tu memang apa ke hal nya pon i don't know why, it was jammed all the way from kepong area tu sampai one utama!

and sebab bengang sangat, i decided to masuk dalam one utama and had dinner with lil zaes while waiting for billa. dahla masa nak sampai one utama tu, he was half asleep! tapi i managed to woke him up and made him walked instead of bringing along the stroller despite his sleepiness. and yang penatnya i la jugak sebab tiba-tiba dia hyper and tak jadi mengantuk. lari sana, lari sini... *sila menyesal sebab tak bawak stroller*

when billa (sans bulu mata palsu sebab telah pon dicabut the first few minutes dia masuk rumah kawan dia..) & i reunited, we went back with much exhaustion.

nasib baik pon mister mama tak ikut sekali.
