The Missing 7 Years (part 1)
~My Childhood in a Glance~
Aku dah tak heran kalo ada org yg berjaya melanjutkan pelajaran kat luar negara... dah rezeki diorg.. takkan nak dengki plak kan? Hehehe...
"We have our own journey.. our own path through life that we pave for ourselves... and maybe our paths might intertwine.. who knows??hehehe.. "
Aku pernah gak dapat peluang nak sambung degree kat luar negara selepas SPM... tapi bapa aku tak bagi atas sbb2 yg tak dpt dielakkan... pesanan die kat aku dulu..
"If you got a GOOD head on your shoulders... you could strive anywhere, anytime, anyway....."
Waaa... terkesima dpt "words of wisdom" nie dari ayah tersyg......... hmm... betul gak tu... Buat apa nak blaja jauh2x... kat Malaysia pon dah cukup... huhuhu.. walaupon aku sedikit kecewa sbb kebnykan member2 yg terror kat sekolah menengah dulu dpt gi overseas... sigh...
Takpe.. takpe.. benda tu dah lepas.. meh join aku mengimbau masa lampau aku... ehehe.. (erkk.. ya ampun.. ku buat dlm English bole kan?)
On Foreign Land...
It was difficult for my parents to fit in.. my father wasn't all that good in speaking English but since my mom went to Convent School during her adolesence years... she was a supporter and a teacher to my dad. They were inseperable...
I was only 3 years old when he brought us to live on foreign land. My brother was only a year younger. We didn't have a clue what life we were about to have.
My father had to bring us along... because he can't imagine a life without us. He was married.. age over 30 years old.. and had me and my younger brother to care for. His studies were sponsored by the same company that employed him. But the costs didn't include him bringing his family along. Alahai........... I remembered him working odd hours doing odd jobs just to make a living for us.
We were eventually enlisted as among the 'poorest' families of that district and were entitled to receive grocery coupons amounting $500 per month. Hehehe... so we lived on food coupons most of the time... When we needed clothes... my mom would simply exchange the coupons for cash... bijak kan beliau?
During holidays especially Christmas and Easter Day.... we'd be given donations in the form of warm clothes for winter and toys from the store we always shopped our groceries. I always anticipated these days with glee......... hehehe... The States have such good people.. sigh..
I remembered once... my father who was at that time juggling between a job as a washer at the campus's cafeteria and his studies for the upcoming examinations week.... that we ate so little!! I would start complaining.. my brother sulking!! Because the food wasn't enough. Little did we know... my parents were saving for a holiday to Florida.... during the semester break! Pergghh!!!
Disney land!!!
Sea World!!!
Universal Studios!!!
Yes!! We've been there!!!
Wow.... we used the old van to drive from Indiana to Florida... It took us four days to get there.. Thank god there were many cheap hotels/motels along the way.
These were the best memories of my childhood.. Still fresh in my mind... many years later.
Imagine.. hardly eating for days..
Then suddenly you are treated to a trip to Disneyland? It's like a dream come true to us kids. Waaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
(kami yg mana satu ek?? hehehe)
A'ah........ there are so many memories I'd like to share... but the memory of being brought along to accompany my dad to further his studies is the best one yet. 7 years beb.. It's not one you could easily forget...
Jadi...
kesimpulannya.......... be a father to your kids.... be a good one. Eventhough you're busy with your work.. or studies.. or maybe something else....
Jadikan anak2 anda sbg matlamat anda... huhuhuhu...
Seee............. anak2x bapa aku......
InsyaAllah....They all will turn all right!
