Rumah Lama...Rumah Baru

Nya neh......Its time to say goodbye to this old house.  Udah sendat ko perintah, either renovate which i have to pay or build a new house somewhere.  ..sob..sob..sayau meh aku ke little house on the parit aku tok, namun apa kan daya, circumstances tidak mengizinkan.

However, I have created a new house on the prairie.  Do visit TUPAI TALKS.  

New house, new look, new stories, new style......

 

Endu Tupai always welcomes you.

BYE BYE OLD HOUSE...

A birthday to remember July 3, 2012

Aduhai.....lama amat ku dah belelang ninggal ke ruai endu tupai ku tu.  Puas ngingat ke password tadi.  Nya meh..dah hanyut di bai ruai bupmoa nyau almost di leka tudah ruai ku tok.  hmmm...good thing the mood came back today.  hah!! kedung bulan tu bulan my birthday, must record the moments in here.

Yes, July 2012 I had a birthday to remember; 3 celebrations actually.  1. with friends  2. with family  3. with colleagues.  Am so blessed.... so many people loved me.  Am so sorry and regret that I sometimes take people for granted.  Muaahhh... love you all so much.

1.  Celebrate with friends
Ke bendar supposed to be a ngiling tikai thing ba rumah bu bitty.  oh yes..there was a ngiling tikai cum   karaoke cum ngajat session done.  Towards the end ada jua insan yang baik hati menderma an ice cream cake alu di jadikan babday cake.  hehehehe.   Surprise!!

 Dasoh make a wish.

Pas nya ngambi kesempatan sida nyonteng muka aku yang comel itu ngena icing.  hahahaha...fun..fun..fun.. asai sweet sibintin aku...  (eh..peda utai tulis ba baju...recycling..)

2. With Family

Anak bujang ku tu birth date ya 1 day earlier than me.  So celebrate together gether meh every year.

3. With colleagues

Bala colleagues ba ofis tried to trick me madah bisi parcel urgent ba counter lobby.  Irau ga ati ku laban nadai pun bisi ngudar utai.  Selama tu bisi meh ngudar bala sida pinggan mangkok, tapi lama dah stop.  Agi teringat ke kisah orang ke kena bom maya nerima parcel.  hissh.. nebes ga aku.  Dati din nemu nya kotak kek babday.  hass..apai... sida colleague mayoh mai ulah.  :)

Also ice cream cake.  Tu dasoh make a wish dolok sambil siko tried to conteng my muka with the icing ga.  aiee.. trend baru ka? 

God, I thanked you for good health, happy family, loyal and responsible spouse, a job I enjoyed and wonderful friends and colleagues.  AMEN.

Penguji........A moment of pleasure...a lifetime of misery....

Setiap kali musin lent, kitai selalu maca cerita Jesus di uji 40 ari ba kampung puang.  So maya lent tok meh maya kitai reflect on ourselves napi penguji dunya...napsu dunya.  A time for self denial and more prayers.

Talk about penguji, as human semua kitai sigi di gagai ya.  Sengaja atau pun enda sengaja, penguji ada di mana mana.  It's a matter of how you face it and yang penting how you learnt from it.

Back to the bible story on how Jesus handle the temptation in the dessert, as humans i don't think we are able to do that, but how i wish we can do that.  Its a wonderful example to everyone.  He just quote what was written in the bible.  Did we realise that's the best way to fight temptation?  That's why knowing the bible is a very important aspect in a christian's life.  But many of us including myself are so ngelusu when it comes to studying God's words.  That's why penguji nyamai amat ngalah ke kitai.

Nama kebuah kitai di uji?  My thinking is always; maybe God wants to test our faith?, maybe God wants us to learn something from there?, maybe its a wake up call from God?  How do we know if its a test from God or we are just being naughty; sengaja ka ngaga penyalah?  How to tell the difference?

hmmm..ngelu pala endu tupai mikirin..........

Whatever it is...if you know you have been tempted....stumble and fall...jampat ke angkat bejalai baru ba jalai ti betul.   Yes...we confessed our sins, ask God for forgivess..but why can't we forgive ourselves..why can't we accept God's forgiveness then?   Another difficult question to answer................

The Call..

Hari pertama betugas 5/2/12

Apuu..lama amat ruai ku tok enda di jenguk, kotan tek dah gila ngan bupmoa.  kesian..kesian...sampai almost lupa password.

EtE sigi rindu amat belagu..tang ukai solo, dalam gerup choir.  Maya agi lower secondary kelia, EtE masuk choir St Columbas.  After being selected to study in Kolej, alu badu.  Datai ba Kolej din alu masuk Kolej choir ga.  Nyee..sigi amat rindu belagu.

Now 30 years later, Ete nyau tetenguk baru ka masuk choir gerija.  Since anak anak semua dah besar panjang, nemu ngintu diri so nyamai meh duduk ngau sida choir.  So on 5/2/12, EtE officially nyadi choir member baru.  Kira making a comeback meh nya.  Seronok betul, laban sigi minat, walaupun suara enda ga kelalu manah, tang bisi ga di anjung.  hehehe..

When come to think of it, am wondering...could it be my call?

Hargai Kesihatan

First day of Chinese New Year, tekenyit endar EtE ninga rita kawan bisi masuk ba Columbia Hospital, raya keno.  Nasit prugrim ngaga kek ba rumah Kesulai kinsil, nya meh EtE ulih ngabas kin.  Datai din, naka ya penyinu meda ya nya ta ngeraya nya.  Nadai nyangka nya bekenya laban indu nya sigi sihat walafiat munyi ko laut; nadai utai tau nganu, but then tekenyit katak magang meh kami sebala.

Timbul meh kesedaran dalam ati, don't take your health for granted, but don't be too obsessed with it as well, laban kitai mensia mina berusaha, Tuhan yang memberkat.

Lemai kemari bisi meda gambar ya ba pisbup, nyau tau duduk; Praise God, sampi kami di dinga.

Tu gamal bala ke bisi datai ngabas.  Chapoh wad endur sida.  Nasib Kesulai enda ngau.  Kada enda di buru security kami. Sempat ga meda indu Nas nganu tudah Carol.  Peii..bebulu lintan kami ninga ya; so rude.  Dalam ati ku bejako; enti ngai kerja madah, aku ka nyadi nas. Gula tudah patient nyau niki sekumbang kami ke diak, engka stress ninga ulah kami diak. Ni ke betaci ke pala gara gara IEG ngelempai ke tawil atas bau aku maya nunga tudah Carol.  Deh apai...jegit amat.

Sekumbang ke admit diak, tudah Ros ngibun ya, laban entua indu ya baru udah nadai and benong di senggaie.  Ni ke begau ke entua ya, nyau begau ke ya ga.  Untung amat bulih kaban baka Ros.  Nya baru kaban sejati; A friend in need is a friend indeed.  Rare species nowadays.

Pulai ari hospital, mai IEG ngirup, tapi kedai cina nyau tutup magang, so terengkah ba McDee drive thru kami tiga anak ku.  Duduk entap kami tiga, enda drive thru.  hehehe..  Ka pen enda, burger nya ga di order, takut ka ngirup cola, alu ngoder ribena, tapi enda berani ngabis ke ya nyepi nya bisi manis.  ishhh...nemu takut sida, uji bekenya belama, baru lah sihat.

Nyambut Taun Baru

Nyambut taun baru 2012 at my mum's place in lambir.  We arrive at almost 9pm, as at the same time, there's  a wedding going on.  The wedding of my dad secretary's daughter.  Dad's home can be considered as public property, that's why the pengantin family choose that venue and at the same time alu nyambut taun baru.

So mayoh macam meh dishes di sedia.  Kami pun tumpang sekaki lah.

The pengantin; young and sweet.

When the clock strike at 12 midnight, mercun lalu di tebah, mensia pun alu beberap, betabi ngau pangan diri.

Kesulai alu megai makropon, alu mai lagu ya 'bujang semanggang'.  Gamat gitu.  Endu Tupai enda ngau meradak ke nyawa, ngelak ke urang lok. hehehe

Poco2 sigi wajip.  Biar belajar step dulok, ngai meh enda ngau ngeroh ke ai.

We left home at about 2am.  3am baru mata bisi ngantok.

The Big Five

Papatupai turns 50 today!  wow..that's a milestone.  Happy Birthday Suluati.

Nothing fancy, just a little cake to symbolize the day.

May God bless you with good health and all good things in life.  Amen.

Hehehe..ngai enda bekunsi ke cerita Christmas 2011 tu tadi.  nyaaa......nyau taun baru diri!

Kami diau ba Tanjong Batu Beach apartment.  Sigi endur diau belama pama nemuai kin.  The kids love the pool ke batang(including me hehehe..)  Nyamai sebengkah bisi dapur endur nyumai, washing machine and dryer.  Very convenient.  Nyentok ke sida sudu, gelas, pinggai, kuali, frying pan bisi di sedia magang.  Lauk aja beli.

From day 1 to go home day, 2 kali sari mesti terjun dito.  Ka udu..

But the greatest gift of all is The Lord JESUS, our advocate our Saviour.

Selamat Taun Baru 2012


Selamat Taun Baru 2012.

puuuuu!...amat lama ruai ku tu petang.  Tersangatlah sibuk Endu Tupai semenjak dua menjak tu.  Tu pun encuri jam ngabas ruai ba upis.

Nama azam taun baru kitak wai?  Engku as usual, enda ibuh macam macam azam, azam ke lama nyau nyadi ala..kazam!!  hahaha..

But anyway, walaupun nadai berazam, tang Endu Tupai want to make it a point of not letting work taking over my life.  I have been very stressful in 2011, I brought work home and brought it back to the office undone.  I skip exercise in favour of completing my work.  But yet at the end of the day, no body die when the work is not complete.  I have been obsessed with blogs/facebook to the point of neglecting my home sweet home, my bintis/cik pots are all furry brown drowning in dust.  What's the point of buying them if you don't take good care of them? 

Went to Mama Nunut's home last weekend and saw how serene and beautiful her home is.  Her bintis are all beautifully displayed and clean!  Ahh....gave me inspiration already.

Speaking of blogs, I used to feel that I must update it as regularly as possible, must talk about the current affairs and what nots.  Well...I should read more this year and update blogs whenever I feel like it.  Ahaa..this could be my 2012 resolution.  And there's clutter to deal with at home.

Oh..well!..thought of posting cerita christmas and new year just now, but then this lunch break is coming to an end.  Maybe tonight.

Cheers.  Wishing everyone a blessed 2012.
