my beloved IBU turns 52 today.. yes.. FIFTY-TWO.

so... happy birthday my mother..

i ddnt even prepare her a birthday gift in advance, due to the shortage of time & e fact that we went to jb.

called e godsis in e morning for an impromptu shopping trip.

& somehow, i ended up driving to her place to have lunch.. e godsis is always excited if i get e car. we are pampered that way but still, we do have a rockin' good time on every car trip.. simply just enjoying good music, a good talk & definitely good company.

this is SOOO last minute! writing e birthday card in the backseat... (thnx darl for e supplies ;))

she had her own bday gift to wrap..

headed to vivo after that. so this is us & "moo-moo" at ben & jerry's..

FINALLY! my cravings for choc fudge brownie were fulfilled.. im a happy camper =)

got home.. & i found the mother still in a cranky mood. (it has been 2 days) jeez.. i shall blame PMS solely for this. so me & bro sang her a birthday song, along with her fav secret recipe cakes & the card.

& guess what.. NO RESPONSE! not even a smile lah siol. so we just left her alone. awhile later, she called bro & she gave him a letter. wahlau.. now she has started communicating with us VIA letters. in-house mail beb... i find this all very amusing. but wattado.. im just glad she appreciated e gift.. phew!

-------------------------------

on to my kampong trip..

it got hit with e worst flood in 30 years. thank god my grandaunt's place ddnt banjir! i asked my cousin Anis to take me for a ride to see the worst banjir-ed places.. on her motorcycle no less.. & mind u, she's only 16! ok.. it's no big surprise that they cn ride without a licence or a helmet..

so, dengan selekehnyer..

some of the houses which got hit pretty badly by the monsoon rain.. horrible banjir man!

ok.. we had to go through 4 major road floods & it ddnt help that e motor engine died 17 times on us!! scary lah caaaan.. for a moment there, i thought we had to push the bike manually.. chet!

Anis & me after the "brutal" ride.. i enjoyed it many many... explored new things about my kampong & its ppl..

though its not like a normal hari raya haji (due to e fact that no lembus were slaughtered, to my major disappointment) it was a nice time catching up with the family there..
