of burnt clothes and et cetera

Hari ni almost 6 bulan aku tak tulis blog. Aku pun tak tau la KPI untuk blog aku ni berapa entri nya setahun. Once a year maybe? I think I know why I didn't really want to write on anything... I am just too... reserved. Aku bukan jenis orang yang suka cerita perihal sendiri, cause I think, when I do that, I am going to be very vulnerable... rasa cam exposed gitu. And apesal pula hari ni rasa nak tulis something? Sebab aku rasa facebook is too open to tell the world what you did and stuff. And a blog is where you can write anything you want without your close friends judging you. Lagi-lagi aku yang takda followers ni.. maybe diri sendiri je yang baca, ahaks. Aku rasa ramai orang tulis blog because the need to write something to spill something, so that one day they can look back and reread their entries over and over again. Bukan? Ah sudahlah Farah!

I feel like I have been spending way too many hours in front of the Facebook. Apa aku dapat? Hari-hari baca newsfeed macam itu aje lah sumber news yang ada. What the..... And I've got my dad a facebook account a few monts ago. It looks like they're hooked up too. Hope it brings more good than harm though. In a way aku tengok ayah aku seronok berfacebook, getting in touch with long lost co-workers and friends. Sejak dua menjak ni, aku tengok ke mana-mana aja diorang bawa kamera (mine plak tu!) Balik-balik terus upload facebook.. OMG ini dah lagi dasyat dari anak-anak dia ni. Ahaks.

Anyway, this entry is going to be about burnt clothes. Dibakar oleh siapa?? oleh seterika bertuah. There are a few occasions where I burnt my clothes while ironing them. Seterika rumah aku ni mmg ngok ngek sikit.. Over panasnya. And most clothes that I have burnt are the very fine and delicate fabric, which of course require a lower temperature and the very smart me tak kuasa nak lower it down. Last time was my baju raya. Well, truth be told, aku ni jenis yang selalu beli baju kurung siap, and aku suka beli yang murah-murah kalau boleh nak yang RM50 sepasang. Murah, cantik dan awesome. Itulah motto aku kalau nak shopping. Yes kedekut to some extent. Tapi for raya last year aku ada beli satu baju kurung moden ni which cost me RM150. It was very expensive for me (like boleh dapat 3 pasang kot!! kalau aku beli yg RM50 ones).


Dijadikan cerita.. lepas sekali pakai. Nak iron the second time. I BURNT IT.... like aaaaaaaaaaa... there goes my RM150!!! Haih.. A few weeks after that, aku suruh mak aku carikkan patch lace and cover the burnt part (and another lace to balace it too.. so that seimbang kiri kanan). Em.. the moral is.. I don't know.. maybe itu peringatan yang harta itu memang pinjaman. Baju kurung mahal kau ni hanya pinjaman Farah oi!

Semalam aku iron baju kurung moden aku beli kat jalan TAR 2 years ago which costs around RM60 (Yayyy cheaper). It has a abstract corak and I quite like it. I usually wear it to kenduri kawin or sometimes to class occasionally. And I burnt it tooo!!! Kecewa gak tapi apa nak buat. Its not like I can turn back time. Bila dah terbakar and jadi arwah tu, aku usung ke bilik, dengan hanger aku angkat and usha baju tu for the last time and asked what was wrong with this baju kurung that this thing had to happen. Aku angkat tinggi-tinggi. And I think I got the answer. It was too translucent. As simple as that. Maybe Allah wants me to know that.. "no you shouldn't be wearing that, sweetheart". The baju and the kain are the same corak tapi baju tu was from a chiffon fabric and the kain was a bit opaque. I usually wear it with an inner. But what's the use of an inner if it's too tight? 

Ah.. Sweet kan, Allah? :)
