if you text it, i'll delete it

i survived the night! hallelujah :)


she left in 12 hours time. that's the fastest so far, and no, i'm not complaining. in her first 1/2 hour in the house, she started commenting about the house already. apparently, there's something wrong with the fact that the washing machine is near to the toilet. seriously, dude, why do you care? it's not as if you can't fit or something.


and in case you need to know why we have the washing machine so close to the toilet like you claimed, let me tell you. that is because in case a fragile figure like you happen to slip and fall or something, you have the support of the washing machine! and erm, that explanation is actually a quote from your daughter-in-law.

nevermind about that...i actually spent the whole night, watching some malay thing on tv with her and the father! i sacrificed all my hannah montana, wizards of the waverly place, the suite life of zack and cody and unfabulous.

thank goodness i managed to catch like 15min of life with derek coz by that time of the night, she was too tired and went to sleep on ZIMAH's bed. let us be clear again, ZIMAH's bed.

speaking of zimah, that poor kid was so angry yesterday. she and i waited like more than 1hr for the grandmother's arrival. i wasn't too bored coz i was reading my storybook, but zimah, she can barely sit still for 10min. she started telling me all these lame stories and jokes.

we also got so hungry and we ate 5 fish otak-otak each. hmm. she's so cute, i just love her :)

cynicism aside, a grandmother is still a grandmother. she seemed so small and vulnerable yesterday. she was pretty glad that we fetched her coz she forgot her way to the house (hmm, do i sense some form of senile here??) she smiled, thanked and even patted me. that's like a first...after a very long time coz i really can't remember when was the last.

all in all, i think the father was impressed with my performance (oh the father doesn't know that i pretended to be nice). i'm pretty impressed myself. come to think of it, the visit was more of an inspection. like how everybody behaves when the principal is in the class. suddenly the house was extra extra quiet last night. nobody quarrelled with each other and nobody lol-ed either.

oh wells, things are going back to normal by today. oh but i'm sure going to miss something, now that she's gone. i'm going to miss...my clean room!!!

now that there's nobody else to impress, and the mother doesn't count, the room will be back to its normal messy form again by the end of the week. till then!
all i wish now is for her fragrance to stop lingering in my house. even my mum smelled like her! i want diffusion to occur right now!

i find it really funny (not as in haha funny, but weird funny) that i saw my 2 grandmothers yesterday, but my sis and i treated and behaved towards each of them so differently.

i love you nenek ibu!!!
(erm it's obvious enough that that's the maternal grandmother right?)
