digging for happy memories #1

I spent a lot of my childhood at my Grandma’s place. That’s where the cousins hang out. When I was a lot younger, it used to be just me and my two female cousins; one who’s 4 years older than me and the other one is 2 years older. I can’t really remember when this took place, all I know is that it happened a long time ago.

My Grandma had a spacious bathroom, so, my cousins and I would shower together. We would all berkemban and play in the bathroom. There was a paip hujan (shower head) in the bathroom and we would pretend that we were running in the rain. It was always fun! We would be in the toilet until someone comes and bang on the door. Haha.. we had so much fun even though I was always forced to be the ‘mak’. Basically, as the ‘mak’, I had to wash the kain while the ‘anak-anak’ go and mandi hujan! Hahaa..i was bullied into doing many things cos I was the youngest, but we always had plenty of fun!

Once, we begged our Grandma to cook maggie mee for us so that we could put it in our toy pots and pans and pretended that we cooked it. We would ban cousins younger than me from joining us. Haha..so mean.. we would only let them into the room when we couldn’t finish the food anymore. Then we’d ask them to wash the toy pots and pans. Haha..jahat jahat. Sometimes we’re nice to them too la..but I just can’t remember when.

We talked about our childhood last Raya and laughed at all the silly stuffs we did including playing pretend supermodels. We used my nenek’s queen size bed as a runway. Haha. We’d put on make-up and change clothes and all those stuffs. Sometimes we’d even pretend to be the Miss Universe contestants. I was always Miss India and the both of them got to be someone from some nice foreign country like Venezuela or something. Usually we’d put on my older kakak sedara punye baju or my makcik’s. Once, I was changing baju so much that I lost my own baju!..as in the shirt that I had on initially! I can’t remember what happened afterwards. Hahh.

good ol' memories...

After my last entry, I decided to change the way I look at my life. I’m trying to look at the brighter side of childhood..i’m really digging into my memory to find the crayons of my life..i’m making changes in my life, so, if I start throwing you that whole shit about having a bad childhood, slap me with this ok? :)




I think we’re great at being friends.
Let’s not throw that out.
