Just came back from home. Can you believe that? On Monday. On a class day. My roommate slept at my cousin's room last night. She said : "Kak Lin mesti tengah tengok Astro." My cousin's roommate added : "Mesti ada bola malam ni." "Uh huh." My cousin. She's the greatest ever. She picked me up this morning at the commuter station. My family has been very indulging with my obsession of Football (read Liverpool).
I just recently installed astro at my house. I've been begging my mom to install it for quite some time. I guess she finally relented when I dragged her to the mamak restaurant to watch the Liverpool vs Man U match. Which we lost, by the way. Bummer..
Back to last night's match. It was my first Liverpool match watching from my own living room. I was free to shout, throw cushions, doing all the necessary stress relievers when watching a lousy match. And that's what it was. A draw. We really need the 3 points to top Arsenal for the 3rd spot. Thank God Arsenal managed to lose their match with Everton. Although as a Liverpool fan I shouldn't say this, but here it goes : Thank you, Everton.
Yesterday, my two fabulous aunts took me and brothers out. Went to Sunway Pyramid. Went bowling. It's official that Siti Khadijah's off springs all have 'pengkau' hands. Except maybe Izzul who managed to get decent scores. But as average, we're pathetic lot. Our combined scores did not even reach 200. As my achik said, "Kalau Shalin tengok ni, tak boleh terima."
I think there is just no continuation whatsoever with my blog posts. Sometimes it's like a journal entry, sometimes specific thoughts, sometimes events in my life. Sometimes in Malay. Sometimes in English. What consistent is they both are in broken languages. Broken English and Malay.
Talking about events, two big events just happened in my life. The first, and most shattering was the lost of my grandfather. I think that needs another entry later. My grief runs too deep to be completely healed. I think I'll write a long entry to discuss what I'm feeling about it and that will also serve as my own therapy. I still occasionally burst into tears remembering my grandfather. When it happened I surprise even myself.
The other event is a good one. My favourite uncle is married now. I have a Mak Usu now. Haven't got the chance to bond with her yet. But I know I will soon. Although I may have lost someone who I can talk into watching Star Wars (or any other sci-fi films that I can't persuade others to go watch with) with me, I'm so happy for him. Just looking at his face I can know how happy he is. Just a pity that Mak Usu haven't managed to transfer school to Klang/Selangor from Tangkak yet. But, I believe she'll try to ask for transfer when the next transfer window is open (using inappropriate footie term because I don't know the right one) and Pak Busu and Mak Usu can be together sharpish (Stevie G's word from his autobiography that means 'immediately').
Oh.. stop my obsession now. I have tons of projects due in a meager 3 weeks.
