beautifully imperfect.

my father is the most stubborn guy I've ever seen. 
he always want us to behave according to his will.
once we disobey he can be a monster! 
okay monster is too much. 
once we disobey he can be THE HULK! 
lariiiiiii!!!


when i was 5 the most scarier person for me is my father. 
my father has the big RATTAN that he hung on the wall to remind us not to do something bad.
once we make mistake he would take the rattan and hit us.
uh, that was painful.

but as i grow up, my father didn't use rattan to us any longer.
i remember i quarrel with him when i was 15. 
see, i am as stubborn as he is.
ke mana tumpahnya kuah kan? hehe..
both side are so stubborn and it continued like that for a month.
can you imagine, i didn't talk to my father for a month!
i don't remember how we finally ended the world war,
but i remember my mother was the most worried person about the fight.
she said, it's hard to persuade both of us to talk first since both of us are equally stubborn.
keras kepala+keras kepala= macam ni lah. 

when i was 17, i got another fight with my father.
he was so angry with me until he broke my brother's game-toy.
my father has a very bad tempered. 
but i got lucky since my father never hit me after i enter high school.
he never hit a person when he was angry actually but everything beside him always became the victim of his tempered.
coincidentally, that day my little brother's game-toy was beside him and you know the rest of the story.
but the good thing is the next morning my father brought a new game-toy for my brother.:)
(thanks to me for that okay. he he)

i always quarrel with my family member.
my sisters,my brother,my mother and my father.
to be honest we never say apologize to each other after the fight.
like,today we fight but the next morning we are laughing together again.
there's no need to say sorry.
and that's what family is. 



this video remind me of my father.
my father has the loudest snore in our family.
loud enough to make you feel so annoyed sometimes. 
now, i live miles away from my father and it makes me realize that even with his imperfections i still don't want to miss a moment with him. 
:)




XOXO,

  4. Cam sama ja ni... My dad oso very pemarah punya type of person.. Sya nda jarang lawan, cara sya lawan, sya diam2 then pi tempat lain, nda melayan dia marah... Kasi biar ja dia, sampaikan sya jarang peduli apa yang terjadi dgn my dad. Ignoring him so much coz takut kena marah. Doi.. But now, he is old so, no more lah begitu just kadang2 sya pi tegur dia juga kalau some things yang nda berapa ngam.. (anak suda yg pi menegur ni..hehehe)..

    Anyway, macam mana pun durang, we still love them very much kan?

    Blessed Tuesday Lilies John!!!

  7. This happens when we're still small, when we're like flexible bamboo shoots, now we're big and strong, these disciplining tactics won't work anymore, we're already grown hardened bamboos..

  9. Mama saya yang paling garang.Sikit2 kena rotan.Saya pernah tidak bercakap sama mama saya 1year..ha-ha tu time masuk university sdh la sebab dia mahu saya study ini saya tidak mahu,saya mahu study itu dia tidak mahu.mahu kena ckp dia juga.

    But now mama saya tidak sudah garang lah.

    Your dad remind me with one of my brother.Hot tempered betul kalau mengamuk saja semualah barang mahu dikasi pecah. Actually kami tidak takut dia,tapi kami takut barang habis dia kasi picah..

  16. If your father turns green, that means he mist have passed on some hulk genes to you, right? Maybe in the future, you might turn people when you go angry. Haahahaaaha.

    Biasa la family gitu. Hmm, but be thankful though, some people don't have fathers of their own and they really wished they had one :)

    Hahaa then your father and I have one thing in common which is we snore very loud. LOL. Betul!

    Happy Friday Miss Lilie!
