Back in Oman, I am. Pregnant and all. Haa haa. Baru lepas mengarang the email to mengumumkan ketibaan ke bawah duli baby to kengkawan sanak kaum family in Malaysia. Well, my family dah lama tau. Kengkawans, baru je dihebohkan the news. Because awal-awal hari tu didn’t really want to kepoh-kepoh. Big deal!
Today akan menentukan where Be and I will tercampak. Nervous giler! But keep the cool in this hellish weather. Hah, guess what? I made Mee Rebus lah today! Cool me. Not the first time, actually. Dah a few times already. But this time I really went and looked for a recipe on the internet, for authenticity’s sake.
The whole house today smells like udang kering. Gave some to Philomena, as to balas her baking pan. Yesterday her maid made us some baked spaghetti. Yummy! And also some date cake. Yummier! Though I don’t eat sweet-sweet cakes all that much, it was the thought that counts. Sweet thought of a friend.
Oman is getting hotter and hotter by hour. Or at least it feels like so. Even my body made in Malaysia also cannot take it lah. Tu belum humid lagi. Time humid, phew! Cannot breathe even! No luck lah this year, we will only move sometime end of July…the hottestest time of the year. No escape this time.
Not like last year when we managed to fly out early June to Milan. Though Milan was still warm and humid at the time we arrived, it was greeeen! Colors can deceive you, ya know? Like if you look at the rocky and sandy hills here in Oman in winter (when it cools off to 10 degrees Celcius), you’d still think of its hot sunny climate. It still looks ‘dry’.
The same goes if you look at lush green forests in Italy in hot summer months, you’d have the tendency to imagine cool or even chilly breeze giving you gooseflesh. Nope! Zappp! That’s not always the case, tell ya.
Okaylah, gotta log off. Soon Be will call to tell me the bidding result. Dag dig dug my heart goes!
