Oh, Nazreen

On our way back Balik Kampung on 2nd day of Raya.

Him : Mama, hari ni hari apa?
Me : Rabu.

(5 minutes later)
Him : Mama, hari ni hari apa?
Me : Rabu.

(5 minutes later)
Him : Mama, hari ni hari apa?
Me : HARI RABU, sayang.

And it went on and on and on from Kuala Lumpur to Muar. Luckily Mama was so patient that day because she has nothing much to do in the car except for sleeping (which Papa dont like - lol).

That night,

Him : Mama, hari ni hari apa?
Me : RABU, NAZREEN. Kenapa tanya banyak-banyak kali?
Him : Semua orang dalam radio dengan TV kata hari ini Hari Raya. Patutnya hari ni Hari Rabu, kan? kan?
Me : Mm.... (explaining for 10 minutes but he seems not satisfied with me saying that hari ini is also Hari Raya)

Before he went to sleep...
Him : Mama, hari ni hari apa?
Me : Hari ni hari Rabu, Nazreen.
and he sleep. Smiling. Satisfied.

Last two days...
Him : Mama, hari ni hari apa?
Me : Jumaat.

(5 minutes later)
Him : Mama, hari ni hari apa?
Me : JUMAAT, WHY?
Him : Kenapa semua orang dalam TV cakap hari ni Hari Merdeka dengan Hari Malaysia? Hari ni Hari Jumaat, kan? kan?
Me : oh, Nazreen....

I have to go through the same old explanation over and over again.
Oh, Nazreen! You'll get the concept one day...

UPDATES

Our laptop has been kaput for a while. I dont blog from office esp during office hour, hence no update. I have tons of entries to be posted but it can wait. It can always wait.

Right now, I am struggling to produce our HABITAT MAGAZINE 2011. Our annual baby. And I am proud to announce that my BFF, Cepoi is the winner for the Habitat Magazine Cover Competition 2011! Congratulations, Cepoi! Well, dont request for open table, guys. He is married and he has lotsa responsibilities for his family. So, let him keep the money, ya!

My hubby sent three entries and I had prepared one entry, quite similar to Cepoi's (did I told you we are bff?), but unfortunately I withdraw my entry. It is a long story. I will blog about our entries later. And this is Cepoi's winning 'cute' entry (the theme is Cities and Climate Change) on the magazine's template :

And, afterward, I will be struggling with our makan2 for Raya since we received requestsss from our relatives to have makan2 at our new habitat. Well, you guys know our house is not ready for guests, right? BUT WE WILL MAKE DO.

We will leave the window frame paintwork half complete (we are talking about half white - half grey). We gonna let the old messy landscape in front of the house as it is (believe me, IT IS MESSY like 100 years old untouched garden with weeds and all). I really have no time to do everything since our office shifted to Putrajaya. I came home at 10pm everyday. I cant do much.

(edited - my ILS cant make it on 17th so we are postponing the makan2 that day BUT you guys are invited to come anytime, just inform us 2 days prior)
