Shift…Shifting…Shifted…
Hey guys…I’ve shifted my house…not staying in 97, Straits View anymore…A bit sad actually cos i’ve stayed in this house for almost 10 years since i was standard 5…This house bore many of my memories since i underwent part of my childhood and teenage years at this "not-so-attractive" bangalow house.
First of all, let me give some briefing on this house of mine for almost 10 years…it is a government quarters and as my dad is a government officer, he was given this house while he got the transfer to JB.thought it’s free???no…nothing is free in this world and he gotta pay rent too…it is situated at jalan straits view…No "taman" around here cos all the houses jus lay along by the roadside…i’ve been through a hard time explaining to my friends how to get to my house as they will surely ask me "ur house not in a taman one meh?"..ya there’s no taman around here and just one jalan.it has 5 "sub-jalan" but my house is situated by the main road…hmmmm….It gives a great view of the selat tebrau from my house…so it’s consider as having good feng-shui cos it’s back by a mountain and facing the sea…maybe it’s because of this,my family members are all "hao ming"(leading a good life in chinese)..and guess what?it has many fruit trees around…3 rambutan,2 mango and 1 kuini…oh ya not forgetting there are 3 coconut trees also which never fruit…but the other trees are damn "obedient"..they fruit every year especially for the rambutan tree…when 3 trees fruit together, we could really get whole lot of rambutans which then my dad would start to give some of them to our neighbours..haha…the rambutans were so big and juicy until many of my friends like it and they had planned to have a rambutan party at my hosue but every time it’s not succesful..now then no more chance d…next time i buy for u all lah..but it would not be that fresh because at my hosue u can eat as u pluck them or pluck as u eat the rambutan..great right?…
And…….as i am the only daughter in this family, i get to have my own room and guess what there’s where many of my friends had stayed overnight for countless activities…i still remembered the first time was for the discussion of debate competition..haha…let me see…there were chia chee, chui wei, vicky, mei may and ah hoon.. that was the first time…cos my dad won let me stay overnight at other friends house so they came to my house…havoc…but fun and nice..really nice…then after the first stay overnight, there are 2nd and 3rd time and etc..now becoming countless as i don even remember who came to my house b4…but really thanks to them cos they ‘ve come over because of me and all those activities had really brighten up my life…
my house was also the place where we gather to make birthday presents for our friends..remember f4??han, sing and leek mei??stayed untill so late just to make a jigsaw puzzle or other things…wat else??
yeah….about 20 of seta girls came to stay at my house for the preparation of xuan gu..haha…still remembered that my bro had to send us to school and he gotta make two trips…thanks ya san ge…
and i can still remember that during my 16th birthday, a group of my friends baked a cake and sent the cake over to my hosue personally..was so touched at that time and they made for me a present named "chia huan city"..thanks to sing, han, leek mei and sheena…i still remembered it was a fruit cake but in the shape of a chiffon cake…
wat else happened in my house??hey friends out there…can u all remember?if yes then pls just drop by a msg or comment…cos i wanna write down all those activities that happened in this house..because they are all the most precious memory…
