Celebrating Love?

As the whole world knows, today, 14 February is Valentine's day.  Would not go into the details of it's origin but  it was in remembrance of a sacrificial love.

Today it has become so commercialised that Valentine's day means giving away love cards, red roses that once cost a ringgit per stem to ten ringgit per stem; and people still buy it!, chocolates and teddy bears.  Those who received this things from their loved ones will be grinning from ear to ear.  Those who do not, huhu...can sulk the whole day.

But fear not, for those who think they are forgotten take heart; it could be due to the following:

1. Your partner thinks its not practical to spend money on roses only to see it wilt and become dry flowers the next day.  Not to mention the chocolates will make you fat and teddy bears are reserved for kids. Lucky you, if he thought of buying you a car instead!

2.  He's not the romantic kind (like papa tupai) and can't even remember his own kids birthdays, let alone Valentine's day.

3.  He thinks, its only for Mat Sallehs.

But, look at this way, he loves you (in his own special way; its proven, men are not good at expressing love because they are from Mars..ha.ha.ha), he provides for you,  he is a responsible father and most of all he is faithful to you.  Now isn't that a better gift than flowers, chocolates and teddy bears which are here today and gone tommorow?

Let's not forget, we have received the greatest love gift of all; when Christ died for our sins and we are forgiven.  Let's make today as a day to celebrate that greatest love of all.

What did I get today?  Nothing, but I know love is in the air.

Kilang Bantes di Ng Latak

December 2008.  Keluarga Endu Tupai plus keluarga brother and sister in law bisi ngaga prugrim nemuai ke Ng Latak - (munyi ko Indai Dara), KL meh nya.  Ukai semina Ng Latak, alu niki ke Genting Highlands, dah nya terjun ke Melaka.  Bendar amat muai duit and ngelelak diri for about 8 days.

Walaupun EtE enda nyambut raya cina, tang EtE and family enggai muai peluang balik kampung.  He..He..kampung yang only 45 minit drive aja.  Took me almost half a morning to upload the pics and all not in order of events.  Ka cut n paste to rearrange enda ga ulih.  Ba opis ka ga nyadi.  Di rumah mayoh ulah beluk tu.

Prujek kain tampung by Kesulai.  Enda tau tinggal.

Hooray!! Its a Holi........Holiday!

Yipeee!!.............best nyer cuti.  Lately been looking forward to having holidays.  Lapa neh?  Kada enda ka pencen tumu?

Anyway, tok meh peluang EtE galek depan TV and bejegau.  Yang mengeramkan, mata EtE tu sigi automatic tebuka pukul 6 pagi.  Ingin ati ka ngandau till late morning, tang meh enda ulih, pedis badan bai kasak kasak enggai tindok agi.

Demalam laun EtE tindok laban meda movie, so sempat meda fireworks at midnight.  Enda berasai EtE kediri diri bediri di belakang dapur in the darkness watching and nyenip (hish!.....Ruai EtE punya pasal).  Papatupai lama udah derut2...dah sampai Sibu sema jako. Udah nya baru perasan, pecuma kena kidnap. he..he..

Saritok nadai ninga utai bukai, letupan disana sini, asai ba menoa perang.  Nya meh lelak ninga bunyi alarm bala neighbours kasak ke gegaran letupan.  Bedau gi munyi taboh singa.

Anyway, here's wishing 'To whom It May concern'  Gong Xi Fa Chai.

Tindoh!

Bisi orang ngumbai 'tindoh', bisi ngumbai 'matar'.  Whatever it is, I would rather called it 'ulat mulong'.  My youngest son rindu amat meda tok.  He wants to keep one as a pet.  When my MIL killed them, he wanted to cry.

As for EtE, not in a million years ka makai tok, enda sampai ati and geli meh.
