DIALOG SWASTA LA KICAP

PROLOG

Kekwa: Blog tempat luah perasaan!
Kantan: Ishk, bahaya ooo cerita hidup kat org
Kekwa: Rafidah Aziz turun dah dia
Kiambang: Kemboja, mai la sini!
Kantan: Menyanyi...malam ni ja ka depa menyanyi? Ooo Friday night
Kemboja: Apa aku cakap?

Di suatu cerok di Pekan Malibun, di lorong La Kicap, di sebelah Kabaret Lagu Klasik, di pangkin pondok usang... 4 kuntum bunga bersiut, berlagu, mengilai, meratap...ah, ngeri!

Kantan: Haa..nanti pi sana jangan cari kumbang! Sungguh, jangan!
Kekwa: Nanti dah siap...status!
Kemboja: Hiak! (Badak diayun beralun-alun)
Kiambang:....

Senyap....

3568 saat yang lalu...

Kantan: I feel like something is missing!
Kiambang: Agree
Kekwa: Agree
Kemboja: Agree

Kelip-kelip berkeliaran...bunga-bunga terpesona...jeda.

Kiambang: Air? Baja? Tanah?
Kantan: Entah, susah nak dikata.
Kekwa: Rasa macam tahu. Mungkin. Ya. Tahu. Faham.
Kemboja: Aku juga.
Kantan: Kantuk.
Kiambang: Aku juga!

Kelip-kelip, jeda.

Kekwa: Sepagi sepetang.
Kantan: Kasihan kau seorang
Kekwa: Aku tak diberi ruang, jasad bertandang terkadang jiwa tak terundang.
Kantan: Aku faham. Apa kan daya, nasibmu, kau di dataran menjadi perhiasan. Aku di alur seberang jalan.
Kiambang: Aku di air tak bertepian.
Kemboja: dan aku, dari Kuburan!

Ketawa, senada, seirama, hanya nada, hilang irama, senyap tiba-tiba.

Transition

Sometimes I wonder if I would still blog after I go back for good since it always turns out that I don’t really blog whenever I return to Malaysia. I’m back in Melbourne again. Despite everything I said about this place. I'm always thankful that I’m studying here. 8 hours is long enough, can’t imagine going further. Let alone going back during a short winter break like I just did. Haha… However, regardless how good Melbourne is, coming back here is never easy. It is not the place, it’s the transition. Travelling is tiring. Yes, like yesterday, I had to take two flights, one from Penang to KL, then KL to Melb, it is a lot more tiring for someone like me who could barely sleep in a plane. That’s why I enjoy traveling during the day and taking a window seat. I enjoy day dreaming while staring at those fluffy white clouds. Haha.. Weather change changes everything. I had never went back during winter before. So that was my first time experiencing an abrupt change from a...

Willful Ignorance

I was too busy with architecture for the last few weeks.. . haven’t really got a chance to get my head around what’s going on in the world, especially back home in Malaysia. I felt detached from reality. I felt like I was living in ignorance. I felt guilty. Therefore, since I finished my final presentation yesterday (still got 2 submissions coming though)… Today, I decided to take a day off from architecture. I went out for a good lunch with a friend, had some retail therapy… and came back, get on the internet and try to update myself with some of the current issues. I read. I read. I read and I read. As a result. I feel sick. And I still feel guilty, way worse… I feel guilty and hopeless for knowing things I could never really do anything about. I know... I know...I know I’m a little behind. But I still need to put more efforts in understanding the following issues, I’m feeling lost and mentally constipated just by reading one or two news/articles/blogposts about them. 1. ...

Kerja Tak Siap Lagi!

I guess one of the real problem with Malaysian Architecture is it lacks of publication even on the internet. I have been browsing for Malaysian architecture these few days and surprisingly I found that there are many amazingly great projects back home. I stumbled upon many photos of interesting designs that I wish I could dig further for my assignment. But it is frustrating that how brief most of the information is. I also wonder if having a website is such a big deal (expensive, is it?) since not many firms have a website, let alone a good one. Some websites I have to say are not inviting at all. Many use dark/navy blue as the primary color, why is it? I don’t hate blue, but it’s not tasty at all as an architecture website… I also found some real good architects who keep blogs, but the problem with a blog is, it depends on the updates. Therefore, even if it is a current project (since some projects run for years), but if the post was 7 months ago, the blog seems abandoned. Besides, it...
