HARI TU - HD

Orang lain dah lama berHD. Kami baru je a couple of weeks ago converted. Tu pun pasal orang Astro asyik dok called. Now our Astro bill increased to RM130++. Adoii... dah le tengoknya jarang2.

HARI TU - CHOICES

Every week wife and I go groceries shopping. And I am always confused because are there simply too many choices. Pening nak pilih from all the types and brands. Kemewahan pilihan buat saya rasa bagai menyusahkan.

Stupid, right? Very. I smacked my head. Patutnya bersyukur la sebab punya banyak pilihan.

Wife kata, 'Abg, kan bagus ada macam-macam boleh pilih. Imagine kalau ada ikan kembung je. Hari2 I masak ikan kembung untuk abang. Sanggup ke makan?' 'Ala... ikan sardin dalam tin cap ayam kan ada', saya jawap mengusik. Wife terus jeling dan ambik 4 ekor ikan kembung. Minggu tu saya kena makan hidangan ikan kembung 2 kali.... hehe....

While I pushed the trolley, saya pun contemplate apa yang wife kata. Memang le betul apa dia kata. Banyak pilihan maka kena banyak bersyukur. Kang tak der pilihan, merungut pulak.

HARI TU - HOMELESS

Kadang-kadang bila kita jalan di bandar kita nampak mereka.

Kita terus rasa takut. Atau rasa jijik. Atau kita langsung tak mahu melihat. Kita ignore. As if they are not there.

Kita marah sebab mereka 'sampah' masyarakat. Kadang-kadang tu kita kata, 'Muda, sihat, cukup anggota tapi hidup macam tu. Cari la kerja'. Atau kita kata, 'Tak siuman la tu'. Begitulah pelbagai perasaan dan telahan kita. Macam-macam anggapan kita. Kita yang tak tahu hujung pangkal cerita mereka. Keperitan hidup yang mereka lalui. Kita yang bukan pakar begitu mudah melabel orang lain tak siuman. Ye la kan, kalau dah tidur kat kaki lima, maka dah sah lah tak siuman. Judging. Judging. Judging.

Then kita elak dia. Such an unpleasant sight so sanggup kita ambik jalan jauh. Demi keselamatan. Takut kalau betul dia tak siuman, nanti kena serang pulak. Bila jalan dekat hidung kita diserang bau yang sangat kita tak tahan. Kita pekup hidung. Kita percepat perjalanan kita. Sambil berkerut dahi, kita nak cepat blah dan forget we ever see them. Nak cuba tolong? Ehh... macam-macam alasan we can think of not to. Right?

At the very least, shouldn't kita bersyukur kita tidak begitu. Kaum keluarga kita juga tidak begitu. Suratan perjalanan hidup kita tidak begitu. Thus make us more humble.   

Kenapa la saya nak ambik gambar-gambar macam ni. Pada saya photography ni bukan untuk capture yang indah sahaja. Only shoot 'safe' subjects. No. I learn more from the 'gritty' images. The so-called real depiction of life.

HARI TU - MAINTENANCE

Nothing lasts, so maintenance work must be done regularly. This time around it costs us RM800.00. But that's excluding replacing the 2 water heaters which will be done next week, InsyaAllah. Dengan harga heaters plus pemasangan/wiring perhaps another RM1,000.00 kena disediakan.

Tu water filter punya pemegang ke dinding tu sampai patah sebab saya dan wife tried to putarkan filter yang dah tersangat hitam tu. So max filter tu dengan so much yucky stuff sampai air yang masuk ke washing sangatlah terlalu amat kecil. So pusing punya pusing langsung patah! Dan dengan kepala paip tu sekali terpatah !!! Ate... udah reput.... :)

Tangki toilet pulak asyik leaking je. Patutnya bila dah penuh, renti le air masuk. Ni idak, terussss je mengalir. Sangat membazir. Letih le asyik kena tutup yang main tap kat dinding tu. Leceh nak explain kalau ada tetamu datang nak pakai toilet.. hehe.

Water heater suam-saum je even at max setting. Di pagi yg hening bening, maka keberkesanan heater itu begitu mengecewakan.

Kepala paip longgar. Kalau twist kepala tap tu, dengan batang paip tu sekali ikut pusing. Azab betul!!

Pemegang kepala shower dah patah. Maka terpaksalah sebelah tangan digunakan untuk memegangnya. Tak biasa la...hehe.

OVER EXPOSED

Sure they looked washed out with loss of details. But, if one does it deliberately, it is for aesthetic purposes.. hehe. I think it gives a unique look.

Go ahead, give it a try. You'll definitely enjoyed it ;-).
