Maybe it's just my luck. My sheer bad luck with things I consider beautiful.

We lost our trusty Fender in the void deck of our old house in Singapore in our haste to get it ready for our new tenant.

So to mend my broken heart we bought a lightweight Carlos here in Dubai, not the expensive one of course, but substantial enough to poke a hole in my pocket. Small enough to be wrapped by my tiny and lean (hah! I wish) arms, nice enough to match (and not outshine) my bling-blings.

Alas, its life ended yesterday. Aishah was opening her wardrobe and didn't realize that the door was pushing the guitar down until there was a loud crashing sound.

She started wailing and exclaimed,

"It's my fault!I will tell Abah the truth!"

I didn't get mad because it was actually my fault for not getting a proper guitar stand.

Aishah had spent a good half hour staring into space, afraid of the bleak prospect of getting a good one from Abah(while I chatted with Elisa haha).

When I thought I have had my fair share of peace and quiet, I told her it's not entirely her fault. And slipped in a little piece about keeping the house tidy where everything has its own place, and that there is a place for everything.

She came away with a system. Now she is policing all safety violations (words she got from the internet) around the house much to my dismay.

You can't win. Ever.

Wait till she learns the words "health risk" and "carcinogenic", mati mak tak makan!

oh wow. I think she's acting so much mature than her age.
Kalau anak I, mesti dia dah sorok the guitar somewhere, hoping no one finds it and then buat-buat blurr when I search high and low for it.
Either that or the other one would go "aiyooohhh... tak taiyooohh ... balik rumah makan sayoooor"
:) :)

oh well...

she seems to pick up a lot of things lately. especially bila dah pandai baca sendiri.

pasal telling the truth tu kan, it's like a reflex for her nowadays sejak i marah dia teruk2 sebab tak own up to what she's done. pastu dah cerita pasal heaven n hell, she likes the idea of collecting good points on her right shoulder just so that she would go to heaven where there is a river of honey and candy on trees. haha.

oh her cousins ada ajar dia, aiyoh tatayohhh mak balik bawak kayu...ayooo!

that said, she's pretty much a little girl still. walaupun kadang2 mulut dia tu memeranjatkan.
