Eid Dinner by Malay Culture Society
|
|
|
Well, today start nicely with a nice parcel from Malaysia. A nice and tasty cake. Nasib baik tak rosak. In the afternoon, we manage to buat cheese cake. Sedap gilla, altho beli mixture aje. And then, at night we went to the Eid Dinner by MCS. They served lontong, nasi himpit, rendang, and all other nice thing. We ate and took pictures. And that is not all. When I came back home to my humble flat, all my flatmates were waiting for me. (actually, they saw me went out and was like... wah.. nice.. beautiful... -kebaya bodo aje pun).. so unsangkerably, they waited for me, to take my pictures. Wah, sungguh model diriku ini. Anyway, dah prepared to take pictures, tiba-tiba Jane said, "hold on.. i need to change. Masyoo is so nice, and i dont want to look bad.. " and the others followed her and changed.. Lawak betul. Pelik kot tengok kebaya.. Hehehe..

Despite the pile of assignments that need to be submitted next week, I just take a break (again!break lebih dari study actually!) and play netball for Bristol at Nottingham Games. For those who dont know, Nottingham Games is held annually for all Malaysian in UK to compete among each others in sports. And being me, altho, I am not really good at netball (ada ke yang good pun?? ), I just go and play. I dont know why those juniors chose me to become GD (ha, GD tu, jangan memain). Maybe it's either I'm the oldest (the obly post grad yang main) or whether I was really good (hahaha).
So we woke as early as 315. Mandi and packed some food (kuih raya buatan sendiri aje), then we went to Student Union(15-20 min walk). At 4 o clock this place is really scarry.. because this is the time for all pemabuk to go home. But they didnt really kacau us. Just bercakap2. One of them, even bagi salam to us, and then hiccup, just like the pemabuk's hiccup.Then, lega when we arrived at student union.
The journey was a long one, 4 hours. We arrived there at +-9. Sejuk. Gilla. How are we gonna play in this wheather. But we really played. Tapi what to do, since we only practise onced, so paham-paham aje la. Kalah la. The other games went well, but the best is football. We managed to get first. Yey! Gilla hebat. Why hebat? Because, Bristol dont have so many Malaysian, so we cant choose the best, just send sapa yang ada. So hebat tak?? (brag brag brag)
I met lots of my friends. Kasai, Yanti and hubby(Amir), Kamal and Laila (and Sakina, their new born daughter, baru 7 weeks ni), Izzati<-ni semua bebudak maktab. Then, Apur, Need, Nor and Zaliman (and Harraz yang ssoooooo cute)<-all uniten frens and one lecturer.. hahahha.. and then, Che Pah, Syamsul, Chikong, Noreen and ramai lagi BTN frens, who I saw, but since, ramai sangat orang, tak sempat nak tegur.. And last one, Farahani, adik Fazida pun ditemui gaks.
But seriously, undergrads lagi best la, since most of their frens were there. My frens mostly dah balik Malaysia. So me pun terasa sooo old. But what the heck, yang penting, me dah sampai Nottingham.. Weehuuuu...
We went back at 7-ish. And arrived at somewhere near to 11. The freezing weather f Nottingham followed us back to Bristol. Walked back home, in the rain, in the chilling and freezing rain, with kesakitan dan kesengalan. At this time, people baru nak start mabuk2. So not as scarry as before. But as usual, it is really good to be back home.....
p/s:since lots of people like my leather coat, i wore it again yesterday.. hehehe
p/s:some of the pictures are courtesy of Dee. (chis, they managed to go to nott's castle while i played netball. jahat diorang ni. me big fan of robin hood tau!)

Eid Dinner
|
|
|
An Eid Dinner was organize by the ISOC (Islamic Society). Was interesting. But, the food arrived late. Nak amok gak, since we paid GBP6 (RM42-macam hotel, walhal buat kat student union building aje).. But the food was so sedap.. Nasi Arab.. They served rice with chicken and lamb, and nan, and bla bla bla.. (I realised people here love to eat lamb and really know how to cook lamb-takde bau, but too bad I dont eat lamb.. heheh) There was a live nasyid performance.. And quiz (macam Bridget Jones tu).. But since we answered Syria for the place where Prophet Abraham was born, we didnt manage to win a box of Heroes (the chocolate, and anyway, the answer is Iraq)... And... as usual, I stick with the Malays.. hahahaha.. suhu masa nak balik rumah (jalan kaki ni, jauh aa gak) adalah bawah 5 degree... untung2 besok turun aa snow... amiiinnnn

It was a bizzare experince, having Eid at different country. As we cant get our head to think on the same thing, most of the cities in UK celebrated Eid on Saturday, while Bristol decided to make it on Sunday. I was having a dilemma, whether to celebrate it with the some of the undergrads on Saturday, or join the other fellow postgrads on Sunday. After having my head spinning like the gasing, I decided to join the celebration on Sunday. But we didnt celebrate it at Bristol, we went to London, to celebrate it with other Malaysian, since the Malaysian Student Department were having an open house on Sunday.(London celebrated eid on Saturday)
The journey to London started as early as 520 in the morning. We waited for the bus, in a freezing morning. The journey was enjoyable, watching the sun rise, looking at the field full of frost, enjoying the heat in the bus. We arrived at Earl's Court somewhere at 810. And I... stttaaarrttteeddd... ttooo shhhhiivvveerrr... It was damn cold. We took a tube to Bayswater, where the event started at 9. (Actually, on their website, MSD announced that the makan-makan will start at 12, thank god, ada bebudak London and also Bernama inform us about the change, if not... kuamok kota London-sebab tak dapat makan lemang.. hahahah). We were among the first to arrive. Actually the first. So dapatla eat lemang, ketupat, kuih raya(ye ye ada tat), a few rounds. And then, people started to fill the empty spaces. We managed to lepak a while with akak pelakon. Tried to search for Azah 3R, but probably dia tak datang. Then, met my cousin, Kak Ani and hubby, Abg Usop, their kids, and also Abg Usop's parents. Borak this and that.. Met some of our friends. Met a few pakcik2-gatal-yang-bini-omputeh-yang-tak-tau-nak-balik-Malaysia-yang-cakap-bahasa-gatal-ngan-kami-yang-baik-ni... and then... bermulalah penggambaran Cinta Antara Benua kami (why Cinta Antara Benua ek? Hehe. Because, that's the only cerita yang orang jalan-jalan London pakai baju kurung.. hehehe)
First, we went to Marble Arch, then to (oh my god, this bit is the boring bit) Oxford Street and the last was London Bridge. At this time, we were tired to the maximum, memang ingat nak balik Bristol aje dah masa ni. Seriously, altho we have been here for less than 2 months, Bristol really feels like home. And at the time the bus arrived Bristol somewhere 9 -ish, we were glad that we have stepped on a familiar ground.. Celemek... (Anyway, jangan risau.. Malaysia is still home no 1, idakla raya pun konpius2.. hahaha)

Newest Toy and Bon Fire Nite
|
|
It's been such a long time.. Anyway these are my latest pics.. The first two was two days ago. It is an MP3 player. I get it free when I purchased the phone. But I only get it two days ago. Best wooo...
The rest are pics taken few hours ago. Yesterday nite was BonFire Nite. To know more about BonFire, please go to http://www.fireworksltd.com/Events/Nov5th/index.htm . But Bristol celebrate festival ni today. Ada funfare lagi.. Tapi tak masuk la funfare, 4 pound woo.. If kat Malaysia main mercun nak raya, sini nyer mercun gempak gilla hebat.. Merdeka celebration kat Melaka hari tu pun biasa aje compared to this.. Bayang aa, mercun tu keep on going for nearly 30 minutes. Macam Gandalf nyer mercun pun ada.. People, memang macam semut lah. Although it was raining.. (sini rain pun selamba aje main kat luar.. Hehehe) Makcik, Atuk, Nenek, baby, semua ada.. Rasa macam people all over Bristol aa turun..Among u, only Ari n me yang gi.. Agak jauh mendaki gunung nak ke area Durdham ni. After the last mercun.. semua orang tepuk tangan.. sungguh best... Anyway, after semua dah abis, yang kami balik rumah (singgah sainsbury kejap) but mat salleh n minah salleh semua gi pub n bar (pecah kaca pecah gelas).. But rasanya diorang memang syiok celebrate this festival sebab,now pun, they are still playing the fireworks..
(Note: gambar not really clear sebab guna nite mode, nite mode takleh goyang sangat, kalau dah, hampeh aa macam all those pics ni.. hehe)

Kak Zairos is a Phd student in Uni of Bristol. She's been here for one year ++. I only manage to capture two of his four children in pictures. The older is Nuha and the younger is Izzah (ada sesapa terasa familiar???  ) Kak Zairos' husband is an ustaz. Hehe, lupo pulok namo eh.. Anyway, as usual, forgot to take pics of the host. Anak2 host pun jadi lah. Those two kids memang syiok gilla. Boleh cakap Melayu, fasih, bila English berabuk skiping London (read: Bujang Lapok). And to confirm to all that the world is getting smaller, I met Aida's friend, Hidayah, who was my classmate, during my uniten years.. Hahah.. Samo2 tokojut.. She's just finished her Masters at UCL, so melepak2 kejap kat Bristol ni.. Hahaha.. Sapo laei aa aku nak jumpo nanti...
