My House is a Full House…(*_*)

“What I feel about everyone around me..i feel extremely overwhelmed..thank you for being there, colors my life beautifully..”

I have a wonderful family that teach me to be the person of what I am today...my family is the family that people see as wealthy although it is not...i am a finance student so I know the standard definition of wealthy..even in the state of good financial condition, we are not there yet…when I compare, I always feel blessed that I have grown up in this family…we are the family that always gives to others..until now, still..always and forever will be like this..although we don’t have or have very little, we give…hmmmm, I feel like I love being surrounded by the obstacles that comes along my journey of life…

I live in a giant English-oriented style (is it??..) house in Kg. Sireh…the house is has a lot more to improve since there are a lot of damages happened along with its age…It already turn 32 years this year, but it still appear very big..The owner must be forward thinking, since the house still look exotic and big although 32 years has passed…and might be he was thinking that this house will be a full house with 9 siblings, more nieces and nephews, etc in future…

I have a great passion to this house..i am a person that never good at decorating..only my sister can do that..when I was kid, when the time hari buat ketupat comes, only my sister knows how to decorate it differently…I don’t know..really….because im not Nate!haha..oprah kejap…when you enter this house u will feel calm, even though the decoration does not speak so…but don’t go to the kitchen, u’ll get fainted..hahhaha..the kitchen is one of the unique place in this house..it is a store actually..20-25 years before..the building is not part of the house…but the owner has transit the kitchen for a while there..20-25 years ago..now, everytime any siblings enter the kitchen, each will talk millionaire project! i always say I would like to destroy everything and make Nate Morroco’s style kitchen… I want to built up new big and spacious kitchen where I can ride bicycle in it like I used to during kid..it will be a huge place where there will be more rain pours, no wet floor because of the rain..no one will slipped again at the same corner…haha..n no more back pain if new sink is built, because the existing sink is sinking..why the sink is sinking?..because, the foundation is sinking due to the inproper drainage.. The kitchen is so old, waiting in vain to collapsed..The lights..if I were to make a new kitchen, I will make it bright!..because it looks very dull now, only suitable for those not to be seen in the melancholy mood..haha..

Enough of the yelling facts about my kitchen, now lets move….hmmm, I stay in a room where it belong to my late grandmother.. It never be my room, because it is owns by everyone in the house..the room rule is, when u get home n there’s a room for u, it is ur room..if it is fully occupied, u can try living room..haha..my house has 6 rooms, 3 downstairs, 3 upstairs..if the room in the kitchen counted, it will be 8..but, those 2 are now store where no one dare to enter..we r 9 siblings altogether, it will never enough..well, most Malaysian siblings share room=so its normal! But..the fact that we don’t use what we have..only 4 used..because 1 room used to keep books because of the fact that I don’t want to mention here..1 room is never used daily, it rarely used on occasion..if I get outside my room, I can get the view of a living room where it has big antic sliding door…from there, I can reach the balcony…its being a long time since I went out thru, since it rarely opened…the upstairs of my house is made by wood..in a way, it is classic..but to me, it is still modern..because now, people start making house like that…Nate always used this style of floor..well, my father already think of it 32 years ago…and he surely got taste!(*_*).. I like everything that Nate decorate..but I think he might want to resign when it comes to my house..no3, he is tough person(im his fan!)..mmm, he might be thinking that my house is the toughest one..hahha!well, Nate do decoration anyway..he don’t do construction!

OKei, let us talk about its members…The full house consist of my wonderful mother Sh Zakiah, my Beah and her family, and my beloved siblings which are Faiz, Najah, Fahmi, Hafiz, Fuad, Ammar, Azzah(Me),Aiman n Hanan..Ever since, my late father passed away..the house has never been transformed or clear up the mess drastically..i still remember there are times when my late father gathered with all members and do households chores..like building up fence..huhu(is that one of the households’ chores?)yes it is…no3..yes, it was…we clear up stores..now, hardly we do that..first reason,.. I personally think that not every member has the strong motivation that could drive them to get the job done..There are more talking and discussion…I think I do talk a lot, n I do help a little..but me myself hardly do it to make it look like it did 32 years ago…ive been using my sisters money a lot in buying things for the house..not anymore....well, my house don’t really need more accessories, it need throw a lot more accessories…Well, ive seen oprah show about a house that like to keep everything…like oprah say, evrytime we want to throw a thing..the mind mingles.. “ maybe we need it someday…n it left it with dust for yearsss…haha”..so, specialist says..start small..make sure everyday u pick 2 plastic of things..1 is for garbage, and the other 1 for donation…I did…I now gather almost 20 boxes of shirts(my sister Hanan used to do the filling in the box) that might can be used but..it still there. Still no progress happened to do donation..okei, I’ll do..when I’m back.

Our father did the buying etc to make up the house a beautiful house 32 years ago. Most of the stuffs are very good stuff. My late grandmother is a creative woman. She got high taste in decoration. She is magnificent. She can do everything. Most of the time, she has done a very great job in ensuring the house looks very homely. Its been more than 15 years that she’s gone..After the time passed, the beauty fades..It need continuous efforts to take care of it. Well, continous efforts could means we need maids..continous maid..haha..okei, erm..I still remember my first brother, use most of his first salary to buy thing for the house and for siblings. He got about rm RM 400++ at that time, and he do it to buy good things. Among the thing that he buy is clock that still hanging on the wall in the house. It is his money. I remember. That is almost 15 years ago….Now, everything has changed. Do the siblings have the same courage as the first brother? I don’t think so…My first brother is the kindest one. When I was kid, when I want some money, I went to his room and sell things..Sometimes, I bring the books in the house to urge him to buy it. And he did buy it. He is very nice to all his younger sisters and brothers. Do us do the same to him now? No, I am not. He is the one who teach me English. Huhu..I always have tuition in that house when I was kid. As the result, my English is ok in school. He is the reason behind that I know English moderately now…So, thank you.

There are a lot more to tell, this writing is not describing at all…I dunno…somehow..i always love my house and the memories attached to it..I want to stop now..i might be continuing this description “my house is the full house..”..someday..again..in future….

In a nutshell, my house is a full house that will make Nate almost resign,haha..could be due to the reason of full house as the house full with things yet to be thrown.. full house that full with memories of my late grandmother and my late father, full house that fills with siblings that always gathers in the house even they live scattered around the world , full house as the house that always invite people to eat in the old days, full house that in the meaning of togetherness, relationship, sentimental values..any many more hidden meanings in it..tata..
