New Ride

Today, my sister just got back from KB because she just got her new horse named Mirra. She was so excited about it. Actually the horse is pregnant for 10 months already. The horse will deliver her baby next year but we can't keep the baby because the previous owner wants it and we already made a deal with the owner. This horse is a mixed with the local horse and Arab horse so that is why she looks pretty. I rode the horse and it was so smooth and I didn't feel anything although the horse is trotting. Unlike the other horse, Apple that makes my butt to blister. Her backbones is not sharp unlike other horses that often makes my butt pain. I can sit on the Mirra's back for hours without saddle because it is not painful and I already rode the horse at the beach. The horse performed very well at the beach.

Last time, at the beginning of this year, I was scared of riding Mirra because she was fast and likes to gallop eventhough I didn't ask her to do so. When my friend's horse overtook me, Mirra quickly accelerated and I almost fall off from the horseback. I already fell once with this horse last time because I was not good then. Mirra cannot accept if any horse overtake her because she don't want to be a looser.

Before Mirra arrived at my house in Kelantan, we had only two horses, Apple and Christy. Apple and Christy used to be very very good friend. They cannot live without each other and cannot be separated. Everytime when I only ride Christy, Apple will neigh and become restless in her stable. They both really loved each other and always walk with each other when we are on their back. But now, when Mirra arrived, Christy becomes jealous because now Apple and Mirra are really good friends now because their stable is next to each other. They always kissed each other and Christy now looks so jealous. They do not really kiss but they look like kissing. This is what my sister told me. I am sympathized with Christy now. Last time when Mirra was at her old place, she always fought with her neighbour until her stable which made up of wood almost collapse. Now, she get along with Apple so well.
Uh oh, its time to break fast, I heard the 'azan' already. Here is some pictures. Click it to enlarge.

Christy. Her name was given by the previous owner, not us.

Mirra and Apple.

We bought Mirra from a guy who is a primary school teacher. Actually he didn't want to sell this horse because it was his favourite one. But because of his short of money, he had to sell the horse to us since we wanted it. Oh, I better eat now. I feel very lazy to go to school tomorrow but I have to go because there is a diagnostic test..

see you soon.

Payback Fasting..

Today,
I paid back my fasting that I didn't complete my last year fasting for one day. I have to do it now because it is almost fasting month. I was very dizzy and felt like dying before breaking the fast. Usually I ate enough food in the early morning before fasting starts. But this morning, I just ate half of McChicken burger that I shared from my sister and a nugget. I drank a lot of water after that. During Math examination today, I couldn't concentrate doing it because I was too dizzy and tired. Usually fasting is not a problem for me, but this happens because I had a terrible headache yesterday so I just healed from the headache today. So I quickly finished the Mathematics paper and rest for half and hour after that. I felt like I have no energy. The environment that keeps on moving infront of me makes me even dizzier so I put my head down on the table.

When it is almost time to break the fast, my father invited me to go Muhibah Seafood to break fast. I went there with my sister too. I ordered sotong goreng, kerang, Karupa, Asparagus garlic, erm.. and white rice and apple juice. While waiting for the time to break the fast, I asked a Malay waitress "What time is Maghrib?" Then she is not sure, after few seconds she said "the time is around 7.30pm".. I was not irritated by the reply but my father was really irritated and said that if she was going to say like that I would not have ask her. Everyone knows that by 7.30pm it is already dark and it is sure the time to break the fast. When we fast, we want to know the exact time of breaking fast because we are hungry. Every seconds counts. After that my father went out from the restaurant to listen to the 'azan' from the nearby mosque. Then only my father knows the exact time was 7.17pm. After that the waitress was not seen anywhere because she is probably feeling shy about it.

My sister that followed us to the restaurant had just returned from her holiday in Phuket, Thailand. She bought me something there. She gave me 2 t-shirts, 1 keychain, 1 fridge magnet and some other junks.. But I really like the t-shirt which had a picture of elephant and baby elephant.

Elephant and her child

Talk to you soon. Please mind my English.

Road Block

Today I went back to KL from Kota Bharu by car with my father. I just arrived my house at 6.15pm. When we arrived at Lipis, there was a police road block. The policeman asked my father to pull over and my father did. The policeman told that we were speeding 117km/h. My father was very angry and lectured the policeman. My father was travelling at normal speed even the old Proton Wira overtook my father's car on double lines. Lorry which has very low torque also overtook our car. We were only speeding for a few seconds and other cars was fast too. But the policeman do not want to listen to my father, he still going to write the summon to my father. Alot of other cars was speeding and I am really sure that the police only stop a few cars at random. A few cars overtook illegally on double lines but the police did not stop them. My father told the policeman not to write the summon but the policeman said that if he does not write the summon, his boss will scold him. He said that our car has been captured on camera and he must write a summon.

My father said to him he don't care about that, he said this is so unfair because he was driving very carefully and saw alot of other cars overtake dangerously but did not stop by the police. My father also said to him that he has being paying thousands of summons since he travel to Kelantan every week and he don't have money because he is retired. But the policeman still continues writing the summon. My father said he don't mind paying the summon since he was speeding but he hates that the police was being unfair to him. My father pleaded again many times to the police not to write the summon but he said our car has been already recorded by the speed trap machine. So my father ask him to use the speed trap machine and there will be no need to write the summon. Then the policeman gets fed up and he says OK. I do not know whether the police going mail the summon or not. But it just ended like that. My father was very angry!

I think the police is not being fair because they only stop the car which is new and branded cars. Like my car, it is Land Rover Freelander. They do not stop old and cheap cars like Proton Wira or Datsun Bluebird even tough they were speeding and overtake illegally. They stop the cars like Toyota Camry, BMW and Honda Civic. But I don't say that the police is not good, the police is good but they were unfair this time. I am sure other people were also angry like my father and cursed the police many times for making peoples life difficult.
Usually, cars from the opposite side of the road will flash their lights if there is a police road block ahead but I don't know why no one flash their lights to warn us about the road block. So we did not get the summon at last but maybe they will mail it to us later.
Tomorrow I got Mathematics 1 and Prinsip Akaun 1 exam. I am not ready and I am very scared. OK! that's all from me, see you guys later.
