Penyuah mejamka mata ngiga mimpi, dani kenyap disandang dipangku aki ini endang enda ulih kira. Kin kitu urang tuai bejalai kin kitu mega tudah aku nampung burit urang, enggai tinggal laban ti tengik, nakah but enda mega bangat merintah urang. Ka pan enda, udah nasit nadai urang ngibun kitai agi mit. It was a blessing really. Enti aki enggau ini ke kebun lada, aku enggau..enti lelak? ahh ngaringka diri sebelah langkau deh! Enti aki ini betangkalka getah, aku enggai tinggal..pukul lima pagi udah angkat deh.Udah besekula, ahhh tusah mimit nyau bedulu bedudi meh seduai aki enggau ini. Why? Ngachau ngeruga pengawa urang meh tudah aku siku tu dehh indai. Enti urang bumai, aku pan enggai tinggal..bumai bukit hmmm nyeligih..maioh penumbuh mega aku...bumai paya hmmm dikerinduka aku laban ulih ngachau bubu enggau taut tudah aki..hahahha! Enti urang tuai nurun ngembuah aduhhhh dua tiga kerat isi mansang laban sigi keran ngembuah enggau urang. Tegal pengerah diri deka nitihka urang ngelaban ujan ngelaban panas enda nemu siang enggau malam, tajapan agi mit..in the 70s folks..Had it not for penengik, penatau, enggau penakah deka enggau urang kin kitu, enda meh aku tu nemu serta ngasai utai ti udah ditemu serta di asai. Nganti urang bukai nunjukka jalai, ngajar kitai? Kemaya deh? Nganti bulan tumbuh ba dinding? Apai ga nadai..indai ga bepengawa perintah ba menua bukai!

Aduhh ehhh..nyau tau betikika tangga lada ngembuah lada enggau urang..bisi takin mit specially made for gerubi tuai by granny bahhh...suah labuh ari tangga lada hmmm fun in a way laban here aku meratika pengasih enggau penyayau aki ini ka kitai..sometimes when they cared too much, sida iya suah nagang nyuruh kitai deka agi ngereja..just for attention if nothing else ko kitai. Nangkal getah was something I enjoyed doing back then. Learning to tap at a tender age tu nothing unusual for kids those days. Nah permisi sekula ga tudah Chom ari St Thomas Kuching, bisi ga aku kaling. Pulai ke menua ga sida aunty enggau bala, ohhh nama agi deh..munyika begawai di rumah betebahka lagu rikud pirin hitam ehh.

Bumai endang ampit enggau urang. Betungkuka lada enggau padi were fun..engka tu meh my babysteps to establish my cordination and balance..feet shuffling maya bemain..tan buku lali laban well-rehearsed ko kitai. Ngeruga sungai endang pengawa..berikan endang rindu..mukat, nyala, naut, bebubu, nginti hahahah I have done them all tajapan agi mit. Hmm nurun nitihka urang tuai ngambuh ba repun rumahpanjai hmmm kadang kadang disuruh urang muput arang ooooohhh now..lapa enda nemu enti ka? Nya meh ko kitai, enti kera meda kera nemu betanda deh.Mulung buah hmmm seminggu enda makai sema jaku tan meh. I realized I could run berebutka buah rian labuh with the big boys! Ohhhh I got a little speed in me tang enda enda dikemajuka until late. Ahhh nama peninggi tangga lada nya..nya semina alai peritis, getting acquainted with height aja deh! Pun rian ga ditiki..eksiden sekali aja ahhh..terejun ari puchuk sibau dibalut indu kemusu apeeeeeeeeiiieee bangkam mua kaban! Penatau enggau pemanchal endang bisi amai di anjung laban mayuh kaling mayuh tawing serambau di menua maya nya. Siti utai bangat enda dikerinduka maya nya..school nights!!! Aki endang seruran bisi pengawa sekula digaga sebedau nindukka diri. Nulis enggau ngira...I hated it..kadang kadang ngelaunka diri makai laban ngambika jam begagaka pengawa sekula enda panjai ko jaku ga...tu meh I appreciated the most later in life. Terima kasih aki enggau ini..you folks have taught me more than I could possibly asked for. Pengasih enggau penyayau kita meruan dikenang belama...nasit kitai siku siku.

Endu Mag,I have always wanted to tell the world about hardships, penengik, penatau, mockery, loneliness, incompleteness, insult, etc.. I endured all those years. No matter who, what, where, how, why we were, we have the tendency to build ourselves around these, motivational tools 1,.. situations that can make or break us.. Yeapp..people complained about my writing in graduate school..too darn lengthy!! My folks have complained that I go out of the way, to the Northpole, to explain something..heheheheh..Hahah it will get interesting I hope! Thanks for taking time reading. Ya..enjoy it..go boot scootin' and have fun.
