Tagline

Yesterday I was hanging out with my niece in my parents' bedroom when she said that she had a little show for me. So she took the bolster and put it in the middle of the bed. And then took the radio remote control, pretended it was a giant match, struck it against her thigh, and then looked at me.

-Mak Long cover your ears. I'm going to light this cannon. There's going to be a loud explosion!

So we both covered our ears as she lit the cannon (reben pengikat sarung bantal peluk berfungsi sebagai sumbu) and there was a loud BOOM! Mak Long pun terpaksa menyumbangkan suara untuk bunyi letupan tersebut) and she threw a small ball to the floor.

I had to laugh because she was really in her element and beriya berlakon.

-Did you like it Mak Long?
-Yeah. I think it was a fun show :-)

Then she came up with her ciplak tagline: "Cannonball. Delighting you always."

And it was Mak Long's turn to fall off the bed in astonishment.

Kejadian di Santai Suri

A couple of days ago I went to Santai Suri to meet up with my BFFs. When I reached the spa, one of them was out for errands. So I hoohaa-ed with those who were at the reception area for a bit.

A few minutes later my friend arrived. She was surprised to see me dan kami pun berpeluk-cium to say hello. Al-maklumlah dah lama tak berjumpa. She excused herself to the back for a while and I continued chatting with the rest.

Then I looked back at the counter and saw her standing there. Wah, dah makin slim si Rina ni, kataku di dalam hati. Nampaknya segala usaha mengikuti kelas body combat amat membuahkan hasil.

So I crept slowly from behind and surprised her by holding her by the waist and saying, "Oi Mek dah kurus la ko! Caya la!"

She turned slowly to me and said slowly, "Siapa yg kurus kak?"

Alamak. Bukan Rina. Tetapi salah seorang dari pelanggan urut yang mahu membayar di kaunter.

Memang saya mati kutu masa tu. Saya dah habis auta dah tak tahu macamana nak cover line lagi dah.

So I just smiled sheepishly. For once, I was stumped for words.
