Little did I know that I was slapped with the fact that life has more that meets the eye. I think I have repeated this many times but in different words in some of my entries. Right? So yeah, X'mas was no big hoo-hah..went for a dinner gathering with my fellow koligs over @ Agnes's uberly big 3 storey house. I had wanted to back out initially but thinking that I have committed to go and have kinda promised Abg Yan that I will fetch Kak Eky and his kids, I just went.
I think if anyone were to notice, it would be Abg Tofik. I believe he can sense my sudden mood changes at times but each time he asked if I am okay, I just nod my head. I have been in solemn mood and much in silent mourning. My beloved Pak Uda passed away to be with Allah on 23 December 2008. May Allah bless his soul. Amin. Talking about Pak Uda will just bring tears to my eyes, so I rather have my heart cry instead. Makwa, Bapak and Makya are all that is left among the siblings.
From 9 of them, now down to 3. 6 have passed on...*sobs*
.................................
Well, its Sunday and I am working (nothing new rite?). Abg Tofik should be playing his soccer game rite now. He is on 4 days off from work and here I am rotting in the office and awaiting updates on Abg Tofik's activities. I had a karaoke session during one of the days with the girls - Bestie, Za, Mok Mok and Haney. Abg Tofik, Aiman, Fendi and Zul were there too. It was nice.. get to rekindle those moments we had back in those days (if you know what I mean...).
Then yesterday, Bestie asked to plan going karaoke again with Ayahanda but apparently my sms which was sent to him sometime in early afternoon was only replied @ ard 10plus at nite la. Kes hp batt flat and was left charging @ home. Chet... ada je. Anyway, we still proceed with plan coz Abg Tofik dapat drive car, so off he went to pick up Bestie and Fad followed by me and we made our way to International Building. Expensive option. Not gonna do that anymore. Best preference is still Cash Studio, Ming Arcade. Herman and Sheik came too.
I am happy to see that Bestie seems much better now. Her appetite is growing and she puts on a bit of weight already. I miss her dearly. Though I get to see her yesternite, macam tak cukup. Apa nak buat... isteri orang mah. I can't have her to myself. Hehehe...I sound like a lesbian sey. *bluek*
Right now mata macam zombie. Kasik 10 Redbull pon kennot make it lah. So tell me about it eh, its 3 days to 2009. Korang pegi countdown? Saya countdown kat umah je. Maklumlah, orang somer cuti on New Year, tapi saya kerja dok. Semangat... pekerja contoh katakan. Ehekz.
A short note on 2008 - It has been.. hmmm... an experience on a not so good side with a few of better sides here and there. I lost a few friends in death, a relative too. Financially it was bad due to so many hiccups here and there. On a better side, Bestie got married and she is now pregnant, Linda too and Kakak also.. Abg Tofik and me crossed path and I am glad that apart from being my better half, he was still a friend to me. Syukur alhamdulillah. Well I guess, with a few losses, you gained a few too. That's what life is, isn't it. Hopefully 2009 will be a better one yah.. insya'Allah... coz it seems that the economy will take sometime to recover again. Analysis say that it make take 3-4 years woooo... so until then, pandai pandai lah jimat cermat ok!
On another note, Sparzy has gone blind! His left eye gave way last Tuesday when I fell from the bike (tak nak cerita la how it happened kan.. bleargh!). Need to get a new pair of eyes for Sparzy soon else Abg Tofik nanti pet pot pet pot. Heh.
Done for now. Back to work. Later at nite.....
P/s - Happy Birthday Syafie!! Semoga dipanjangkan umor dah dimurahkan rezki yah!
Lots of love, Pak Usu and Kakak Ann (wakakaka! kakak sey!)
