Meatball

Tadi di pasar malam di pekan kecilku saya singgah di satu gerai kambing bakar.

Saya cakap kat adik kambing bakar tu saya nak beli kambing bakar bbq satu set. Pastu dia tanya saya tak nak beli meatball ke. Dia cakap meatball lagi murah 5 ke 6 ringgit entah berapa entah satu set.

Saya tanya adik tu, "Meatball tu daging apa dik? Kalau ayam akak tak mau."

Then the adik looked up at me and I swear to god gave me the most condescending look siap dengan shoulder shrug sekali and said,"Kan meatball. Meat. Daging lembu la."

And I just dropped dead. Akibat panahan mata sinisnya yang menerusuk tajam ke jantungku yang berdegup dup dap dup dap di dalam kekeliruan.

Baling belakang


Tadi saya hantar gambar lama kat kawan saya.

Saya letak caption "Mengimbas kembali."

Tapi typo keluar "Mengimbas Kimball."

Kawan saya hantar balik gambar botol sos tomato. 

Jersey


Just now right before entering the rest room I saw a student drop some money on the floor. As I didn't recognize him I just called out the name that was printed on the jersey he was wearing.

"Daniel!". No response.
"Daniel!". He looked at me.
"Madam nama saya Izam."

Short silence.

"Alamak madam kantoi ar saya pinjam baju kawan."
And here I thought Daniel was the name of some famous EPL player.

Panjangkan telinga

One day many moons ago after picking up my niece from school we went to have lunch at a pizza parlour in our neighborhood. The boys at the table beside ours were gossiping about their lecturer. Or so I thought.

"Weh Mr X tu suka marah kat aku ar. Aku rasa dia target aku. Dalam kelas dia asyik bla bla bla..."

So I leaned closer to them to listen because I was just as curious to know who the lecturer was. Kot-kot la cikgu MFI kan.

Then Aina said to me loudly:
"Mak Long are you EAVESDROPPING meja sebelah?"

One of the boys heard this, looked at us, then looked around at their table and on the floor.

"Weh apa yang jatuh weh?"

Fuh. Lega Achik.

Cerita jeng-jeng-jeng

A few years ago we had an event at another campus, that ended with a gala dinner. So after Maghrib, we decided to change into our baju kurung attire at the toilet in the academic block.

Both of us were busy getting ourselves ready and discussing about the day's event when we heard someone flushing the toilet. Several times.

Aiseh. Habis la ada orang sudah dengar perbualan kami. Banyak jugak gosip yang telah diperkatakan.

Then before leaving I went to the toilet for one last time and I realized that my friend and I were the only 2 people in there.

And while we were packing up our things we heard the toilet being flushed again.



Moral of the story: We should remind everyone not to waste water. Tak baik tau main-mainkan orang macam tu. Terkejut Acik.
