yes, it's time...it's the time of the month...err...no no, not THAT (whatever u r thinking anyway)...it's his time to shine....yes, our pride and joy, our only boy in the family (sorry ba, a male over 20 simply cannot be considered as a boy), our proud achievement of male-dom (okay i'm just dragging on and on here), and our only CHILD of the family...the last part, the part about only CHILD, that has a very deep history...it will never be forgotten, especially when i am officially engraving the whole story here...that one will come soon....
let's first open this auspicious post by introducing our star of the day: baby boy...that will annoy him to no end (my life mission)...he is indeed the only boy of 5 cute siblings (the rest are girls, just in case if u can't count)...and the last...these 2 characteristics make him extra special...he also have huge huge huge doe eyes that no boys should have...they make him look innocent, when is everything EXCEPT innocent (well, i'll never know about THAT will i?...i'm just the poor beleaguered eldest sister)...he loves bugging his ELDEST sister for movies, songs and animes when he can actually switch the darned laptop on, log online and find them, right by himself, using his God-given brain and fingers, and yes baba's laptop (he will never ever allowed to touch the house laptop, courtesy of ferocious alin, or kak ja's or kak gel's...all of these laptops are sacred)....
before i continue, the capitalised words, they are for impact...his whole being is all about impact, just like a train wreck...he is also the tallest amongst mr. hanif's aka baba's children...after spending 12 years of his life being the shortest, he deserves this...it has nothing to do with his talent or intelligence but what the heck right?....intermission: this 'baby, baby, bay, nooooo' by justin beiber (i know u know it!) is damned annoying, i can't stop singing to it, with exception of the ridiculous ludacris' part, that part i cringed every time!...resume: aboy is a proud VI boy (i seriously don't know what u call a student from VI aka victoria institution, i'm assuming it's 'boy' but alas i actually don't care)...VI being his alma mater, not that he has graduated from high school, being still in school and all...i'm not making sense here....
being special, aboy loves adventures...NOT!...he does try though...so far, from mama's recollection, aboy has tried badminton, the band and footie (still interested) within 2 year period...all to no avail, excepting footie...i admire his tenacity or his bravery or his inability to stick to one interest, which ever quality that struck me at the moment...i was like that, wait, i still am hohoho...so it's all in da' family, ya know?...
ah the story of the only CHILD of the family...i think i've told about it before...to prevent me from being and old bore who repeats stories over and over again, please refer to errr some earlier post, if u can miraculously find it...anyway, he intensely cared (past tense?...yes that part will also come soon) about his elder sister (at this point someone should point out that ALL of his sisters are older than him anyway) alin...when they were small, like 5 or so, he always always made sure his 'precious' sister got what he got...in other word, they were stuck tighter than conjoined twins...they went to the same pre-school...same religious school...ate from the same hand (mama's), play at the same playground and so on...5 or so years later, they are bitter enemies...ah the mystery of growing up...
how are they enemies now?...they barely talk...yes, to each other...the way they communicate: the other person is the third person, even if that person is right smack in front of his/her eyeballs....every sentence drawn by the other person will be replied with derision, sarcasm, irritation or totally ignored...hugs and kisses?...in ur dreams...what if they like the same song or movie????...horror of horrors!...every interest or hobbies of the other team is lame to the other...
did i mentioned aboy loves his games?...he loves his psp, playstation 2, computer games, gameboy and all sorts of gaming paraphernalia...best thing about it is: no one under the house of hapsah shares his interest, thus no one touches his stuff...he also loves anime (as following her kak nana aka me's heritage)...he is also very protective of his mobile phone...coz his sisters are stalkers (who, me?nooooo, not i, puhhhleazzze!)....
he also has the nastiest smack ever...when he was small, smacking him around was fun coz well, he was puny...so his smacks were puny too...now, i try to avoid his 'playful' smacks...they smack broken bones...get it?hahahaha....mama used to warn us about physical playfulness...now we get it...aboy is good in english, like his sisters, but sadly performing poorly in his native language....his malay spelling is atrocious...his usage of words and verbs are awkward...basically, he's part malay, part alien...seriously....
anyway, i should stop now...the topic of each individual in my family can be a whole 4 000 pages hardcover book...one book per person...with sequels of no end...for now, i'm satisfied with this...
