Durian


Assalamualaikum

Aku mahu bercerita... semalam aku makan durian!

Semalam, rakan serumah bernama Oya.. teringin nak makan durian... lalu beliau pun membeli... memandangkan aku si anak kampung ini tahu mengopek durian... maka dapatlah turut serta makan sama... secara percuma... heee...terima kasih Oya...

Ah... alangkah nikmatnya dapat makan durian.. alangkah teringatnya pada kampung halaman... Di Malaysia, lebih spesifik... Penang... Lebih spesifik, Bukit Mertajam.... lebih spesifik... Mengkuang... rumah aku dipagari pohonan buah tempatan... punya manggis, rambutan, langsat (Oya kata, kalau 'duku' ada 'dukung', 'langsat' ada 'langsang' tak?  -_-"), betik, pisang, duku, rampara (pulasan tapi dah nak mati pokok tersebut, tak tahu sama ada masih berbuah atau tidak), ubi kayu (susah rupanya mencabut ubi kayu, pernah disuruh ayah kerana mahu diberi pada jiran mengandung yang teringin, takkan nak biar makcik tu yang mencabut pula), sawa, seghawa (buah mentega) dan juga durian.... itulah... seronok berumah di tengah dusun.. masih menikmati kasih sayang arwah tok wan sekalipun beliau telah sekian lama pergi...

Teringat kenangan mencari durian sewaktu musimnya... teringat si abang yang suka makan durian atas bumbung rumah tok... oh, teringat durian duri halus paling dekat dgn rumah yg susah amat dikopek, tetapi teramat sedap rasanya.... teringat juga kesedapan rangupnya durian mangkar yang hanya berpeluang makan apabila apabila ada dahan patah kerana terlalu berat menahan berat buahan yang bergantungan...

Dahulu.. waktu musim.. boleh lagi memilih mana buah mahu di makan.. banyak karenah, buah pokok ini suka.. buah pokok itu tidak... sekarang... hahaa... hampir 10AUD (aprox. RM30) sebiji... T_T

Sekarang kalau pulang ke tanah air pun hujung tahun... bukan musimnya... alahai....

Rindulah pada waktu itu....

Ada orang tak suka durian... busuklah katanya... ah, tak kisahlah... terpulanglah... aku tak suka taugeh, rasa macam plastik!

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...

Creepy Me in my Poems

For the first time in my architecture-life, I'm bringing my poems into architecture. What's more interesting is, I use my poems in their original form, by this I mean, in Malay language. Now everybody in my class knows how Malay language sounds like. ahaha... The project is pretty much investigating the space between poems. The atmosphere of hearing two poems recited simultaneously. Sounds that make space, space that's defined by sound. Seriously, I don't really know how it'll work out... but hey, just having some experimentation with stuff a bit off-architecture... a break from my headache major project. Plus, I kinda enjoy making people listen to my poems without expecting them to understand a word... rather then, reciting to a bunch of people who understand but couldn't 'appreciate' them... and yeah, I receive some flattering comments from 'mat-salleh' course mate like... "when something is well written, even you can't understand it.....

Against all odds...

I haven't written about school in here for moons... So, I have a couple of things to share... To begin with, I'm currently doing a design studio called Woven... The studio is basically about making beautiful building.. well, it does sound very general.. Every studio sort of has that intention... Anyway, but the different is, what is behind the design.. I mean, the driving idea... because it could be, the site, programs, occupants etc..etc... but for this studio.. It focuses more on the structure... How does the structure influence the design in making it a good and beautiful building... It's about the relationship between the structure and ornaments.... does structure itself serve as the decorative element of the building.. or is it traditional and the decorations stay independent from the structure... It is a decision to be made... Initially, I was really excited about the idea of making the structure ornamented and beautiful.. so instead of serving as structure, it could...
