get up!
May 22, 2011My dad is a busy man, but when he’s at home he loves it when we’re all together. When I was in school, I was terrified when he was home and I wasn’t home yet. Everybody had to be at home when he was. So whenever I was out wasting time in a mall somewhere and my mom gets a call from dad that he would like some food prepared, my mom would call my sister and I. We’d go crazy rushing home because we had to be there before him. Or else, siap kena lecture.
About 10 years ago, he’d have these moments early in the morning. Sentences my sister and I HATE.
“Ok, everybody up. We’re going jogging at Lake Garden.”
At 6 am.
-______-”
My sister and I would fake stomachaches or pretend we didn’t hear, but he would come banging on our doors and we’d be like squirrels trying to get dressed. Then the whole way in the beautiful and peaceful Lake Garden, you’ll hear my dad lecturing us about laziness and discipline and how none of his kids should wake up late. And if we were late even 2 minutes, the lecture would be about punctuality.
Yep, such lovely times those jogging years.
This morning, he said, “Ok everybody breakfast at 7.30 am sharp.”
Ok la, 10 years down the road he added an hour and a half of our sleep. So sweet.
This breakfast was special though. It was the first time the whole family rode in his new toy. My dad bought a new car to celebrate his birthday, he says (His birthday’s in December…..*slaps forehead*). It is a beautiful car and he’s waited quite a while to get it, so I’m so happy for him! The interior is soooo lush I love it! Beige and dark green.
But really, that lasted 10 minutes. Then my sister and I went like this.
This is what happens when you don’t let your kids sleep after Subuh on a SUNDAY! Tyrant.
But I was all fresh again when it was time for breakfast.

After yummy cholesterol, we went for a drive to Putrajaya and I recommend everyone to do that. Putrajaya is gorgeous. The lake, the buildings, the houses. Everything’s so clean and especially peaceful in the early morning. Love it! And being with my family makes it a thousand times more meaningful.
In my mother’s ketiak, the most comfortable place in the world.
Yes, mother’s ketiak is the most comfortable place in the world. I agree…
woah :O
What a greattttt weekend when we spent it with family =)
Omg my dad never stopped waking us up to go jogging with him earrrrrly in the morning. But we all secretly loved it, no? 😉
Wow, ****? Niceeeeee :))

it’s a ***! how lucky ur dad was..but he deserved it, he must be work very hard 😉
I took pride in the fact that I’ve been living in Putrajaya for 10 years. And yes, the place is serenely beautiful.
Take a stroll by the lake. Drive around the neighborhood. Especially in the morning.
It’s very sweet that you’re so close to your family 🙂 Nice car haha. I would get up at 730 for that lolll

Vivy,
I love you dad’s ride. I think the Brits still got the touch when it comes to car’s interior. Really hope your dad will enjoy his ‘flying lady’
nice! If I were you, I would fall asleep not because of waking up early in the morning, but the cosy seat would be the reason. 🙂
wow,cantiknyaaaa……….not Vivy,…….not car…….not your mom…….but..
