unforgettable memories.. at BAMBOO BAY..

how to start eh.. what to start with eh.. .. i was trying to write since last night... but i still cant get any idea on what to pour here... am i having a writers' mind block?.. as if.. menulis pun tak seberapa.. nak gelar diri as a writer... ... ohhh yaaa... yesterday.. after closing ceremony of our camp.. kak emmi (one of my colleague) gave me a cd... its written on the cover.. HER MEMORIES... biar betul... she said," takde hadiah pape.. cd je.. "...... heyyy... the thoughts that count..

i still remember that day.. my parents and my fiancee (now is the husband)... in a kancil.. we traveled all the way from klang to perak.. ala ala.. macam jauh sgt bunyinye... exaggerating je aku ni.. it was only 2 hours away... to SKTB.. why primary school eh?... ... i purposely opted for primary school when i signed up for KPLI... i love younger kids more.. i wanted to help to groom them into a better teenagers.. i dont think i can handle those rebellious teenagers... me myself a mess.. how can i untangle the messes that they did... ...

so.. i finally arrived at SKTB.. the Bamboo Bay... i was late.. there was a meeting held.. in the first place.. i have no idea.. that there was a meeting.. so there i was.. in jeans and blouse.. ohhh so informal.. i was introduced to the staffs.. there were about 30 of them.. i was suprised too.. i wasnt the only one.. there were 3 others of my kind.. freshly KPLI graduated teachers.. ... there were kak emmi, kak arfah, kak ha... still remember ," saya noorliza jamaludin.. panggil liza je.. "... that how its started.. the nickname -LIZA J-.. coincidentally there was another liza.. so makin menjadi2 la nama tu.. tak lama lepas tu.. jadila.. Liza Jawa, Liza Jambu, Liza Jorenggg, Liza Jangok... ohhh.. macam2... jangan J**** and J***** ... sudahla...

after the meeting.. i was brought to a house which was recommended by the school.. for all the 4 of us to stay... a double storey terrace house.. oklaa.. was not so comfy.. but it was more than enough.. for a newbee like us.. and the rental was RM250.. muraaaaahhhh gilerrrr!!!!.... when i was in kl .. i had to spend RM350 a month for a small flat.. 4th floor ok.. yela share.. ni pon share.. 4 org lagik.. it was really worth it.. so.. after i said goodbye to my parents and secretly schmooching my fiancee aka bbiieeeyyy ... i was so eagerly ready to start my new day as a teacher..

the first official day to SKTB.. we left at 7am.. all the 4 of us rode kak ha's black iswara.. out of the 4 of us i was the only one who is without driving license.. aci la kot.. since im the youngest.. betulllll... kak arfah was 30, kak ha was 28, kak emmi was 27 and i was 25... so here we go!!!.. i doze off in the car.. rasa mcm jauh gile nak smpi.. suddenly.. there was a loud sound from the front part... OMG!!! the engine lid was unexpectedly opened up and hit the front glass.. luckily.. the road was quite empty.. so kak ha managed to pull over the car safely to the roadside.. kak emmi pon dgn machonye.. tried to fix the lid... and we hit the road again with 40km/j... tak boleh nak laju.. sbb takut jadi lagi.. and unfortunately we were already late.. but what to do?

we finally arrived at SKTB.. there was an assembly... wahhh... dah la lambat sampai.. tgk anak murid.. ramai.. there were almost 300 pupils.. for me.. it had been twice.. for being late.. awal2 lagi record dah berconteng dah.. and from there on.. i tried to adapt to the school.. to the environment.. new friends.. everything went smooth.. one of the factor would be my talkative mouth.. and good PR that i have (PERASAN)... i received quite good responses...

tapi langit tak selalunye cerah... the house added more member.. cik wan and kak marini.. both from SKS4.. a lot later there was oleen from SKSK... people said the more the merrier ... there were an issues among us.. actually nothing big.. but the interval of a third party worsening the problem... but.. we managed to settle it though.. after a heart to heart talk.. macam kak emmi cakap dalam cd.. nak tergelak pon ada... it is!!!.. as for me.. i take it as the bits and bobs of life.. it may not be a sweet memory but it is something to remember and ponder... time pass by.. the member of the house lessen... cik wan and kak ani found another house which is nearer to their school.. i my self found another house since i got married.. i dragged oleen along to accompany me especially for weekdays.. since the hubby worked in ipoh.. and oleen is the ipoh mali gal.. they took shift during weekends... ... and then kak arfah pulak.. got transfer to grik.. followed her husband.. tinggal la kak emmi and kak ha.. but.. during the school holidays.. kak ha had involved in a car accident.. she broke her leg.. and had a 6 months leave.. tinggal la kak emmi.. and me.. soon after that.. kak ha pulak dapat transfered near her hometown Jeli.. now aku.. pon will be transfered to dungun.. and in the end... tinggala la kak emmi.. the one and only...

here it comes.. the story... i met linda.. didnt meet her earlier since she was in her maternity leave.. who is she?... aku pun tak kenal sapa dia nih mula2 dulu.. so.. there she was.. in the office.. had just reporting herself in... we were introduced by kak siti and kak nurol.. i still remember that she said," oooo.. sebaya ke.. bukan bongsu lagi la kat sekolah ni (she was reffering to herself)"... sabo jela......

from there.. we became friends.. sekepala plak tu.. anak dah dua.. tapi kepala gila.. she was the one yang ajak buat lesen keta... so we both get ourselves registered to NURI driving center... naik motor sama2 gi nuri.. balik dropped by the pasar malam for food.. mak dara nih malas masak.. tapi mee rebus dgn jemput udang dia sedap betul.. and then got chased by a dog masa round2 taman.. memang merempit masa tuh.. aku la plak bawak.. banyak lagi la.. bila dah dapat license.. car pool to school... but not for long.. sbb cikgu tak sesuai carpool.. sorang cikgu ada 2/3 bag nak bawak to school.. handbag.. laptop.. buku2 budak.. tumbler.. anak lagi... kalau carpool.. kalah keta orang balik kampong... went shopping together.. naik syeh la.. tak ingat dunia... sampai si balqis (anak sulong linda) cakap.. ,"along penat la.. along jadi baju lah acik"... ... still remember when balqis and ain were crying out loud not letting me go.. bukan ke mana pon.. balik umah je..

there was one time i offered to babysit ain cos linda had a PIBG meeting and the pengasuh were unable to do so.. linda have prepared everything.. susu, pampers.. semua la.. tiba2 ain nak susu.. ok.. aku pun bancuh la.. aku bancuh terpekat.. walhal linda dah bubuh susu tepung tuh nicely ikut sukatan in its container.. aku boleh plak macam buat air org tua.. ehh rasa sket.. tak sedap.. tambah lagi.. aiyyyyoooo.... bila linda balik.. dia cakap,

" banyaknye ain minum susu... "
" tak lah... sebotol je..,"aku kata..
"habis nih semua susu tepungnye", kata linda..

... i had been mixing it all for a bottle of milk.. owwww... salah sukatan.. nasib baik ain ok je.. kot2 la sakit perut ke.. sembelit ke... alhamdulillah xde.. ain was 8 or 9 months masa tuh... gila tul...

and then we went for a swimming+picnic at the nova scotia estate's pool.. best betull.. takde gambar kita poya2 ka t situ ekkk... dengan di kelilingan oleh pokok kelapa sawit.. memang best betul... because there were only us.. kak nor+aina, kak as+fikri+huda, kak emmi, kak zah+aina(once jerk) and.. kak ton+zira.. memang ladies day out... jantan sorang je.. fikri anak kak as.. .. ingat nak exercise la.. exercise hapenye.. kalau sket2 berenang ke tepi.. mintak nugget la.. mintak jomput2 udang la... at least kita swim jugak.. kak ton? hancus.. terapung ajek.. mcm batang balak...

almost the end now.. nak menangis pun ada nih.. dulu orang tulis macam ni kat kertas.. abis bertompok2 kertas tuh dgn ayor mate... sekarang nih.. selain aku nak menangis.. nak naik cramp jari pon ada.. sbb dah lama tak naip panjang2 mcm ni... biasa.. but i have been editing this entry since last nite.. ada sekali aku terdelete the whole entry... retype je lah...

linda... thanx for everything.. fazli too.. u people have taught me a lot of things especially on life.. thank u for being there for me.. tak berkira.. aku doakan ko... for more happiness and richer life... and.. aku malas nak ngaku nih.. tapi .....
