Duh rajinnya Iko...

Dulu waktu mama mengandung Iko, rasanya bawaan mama rajin dan pengen bersih-bersih trus (cieee..). Eh sekarang (gak tau ada hubungannya apa gak hehe) sifat itu turun ke Iko. Kalau diperhatiin, Iko kayaknya anak yang cukup rajin dan suka hal yang bersih dan teratur lho (hihi mamanya lagi kambuh bangganya). Dulu waktu baru bisa merangkak, iko udah bisa disuruh ambilin sendal, koran, buku dll trus di Melbourne Iko udah bisa "dimanfaatkan" oleh mama papa hehe misalnya papa suka minta tolong iko ambilin kacamata, handphone, remote, tutup pintu dll, trus klo mama suka minta tolong iko buang sampah, ambil sapu, pel dan dust pan, taruh mainannya ke box atau bag-nya dll Klo mama lagi sibuk bersih-bersih kamar pake sapu and vacuum cleaner, iko pasti langsung "ambil alih". Awalnya mama agak kesel karena bikin kerjaan lama selesai, tapi diliatin iko bener2 berniat bantu lho, walo jelas lha hasil kerjaannya masih sekelas balita. Klo dia numpahin apa gitu di lantai, gak disuruh langsung ambil kain pel atau minta tisu trus digosok2 sampe bersih dan sampahnya dibuang sendiri ke tempat sampah. Yang lebih lucu klo soal tutup drawer atau laptop. Klo iko lagi lewat dapur trus liat ada drawer belum rapat tutupnya, dia pasti langsung mundur buat rapatin drawernya, even dia lagi nangis juga pasti nyempat2in tutup drawer dulu haha
Nah soal laptop juga gitu, klo abis shut down mama/papa masih belum tutup laptop tunggu semua lampunya mati dulu, klo keliatan iko pasti gak pake ba bi bu langsung ditutup tuh laptop (buat mama dan papa tahan napas liat cara tutupnya yang sama kayak ttup drawer haha).
Klo liat ada noda/sampah sekecil unyil di lantai juga, dia bakal pick up trus bilang "ihhh dety (red:dirty), rabis (red:rubbish)" trus langsung dibuang ke rubbish bin. Klo iko habis makan biskuit, keju, buah dll, pasti plastiknya atau kulitnya dia buang sendiri ke tempat sampah. Klo lagi jalan2 atau di bus dan iko gak suka lagi ama makanan yang dimulutnya, pasti langsung kasih mama, gak langsung dibuang sembarang tempat setelah itu minta tisu buat bersihin mulutnya sendiri :)
Celakanya saking teraturnya, kadang klo ada makanan enak apa gitu (misalnya coklat, Iko gak terlalu suka yang manis2), dia cuma makan sedikit dan udah gak suka lagi, tanpa bilang2 dia udah buang ke rubbish bin (padahal mama kan dengan senang hati masih mau menampungnya haha). Paling parahnya klo dia udah mulai buang barang2 yang dia anggap udah "gak bagus" lagi kayak buku yang udah agak sobek, sandal sebelah (karena yang sebelah nyempil di balik pintu) dll pasti udah berakhir di rubbish bin :) Jadi rubbish bin adalah salah satu tempat pencarian kita klo ada barang ilang hehe. Iya mudah2an sifat positf ini kebawa trus sampe gede (asal jangan cerewet2 iko klo jadi cowok, nti cewek pada kabur haha) Ini sebagian foto aksi2 iko:

Meet Steffi, My Godmother

Wednesday, 23 July 2008- Steffi (my (Iko) Godmother) visited us on her way to Washington DC. It was very nice to meet her again as when we left Dili 3 months ago, we never know when we will meet her again as Steffi will be also leaving Dili soon after we leave.

It was an exciting meeting, yet it’s an important meeting too. This is the first time, I am fully under Mum and Dad’s care.. so, they need to ‘show’ to my godmother that I am well and sound hehe.. Since the night before they’re busy preparing my clothes, remind me of all the lessons they’ve taught me (i.e. say good morning, hello, etc) and keep telling me that we’re going to meet my godmother.. we couldn’t sleep that night as we’re looking forward to meet Steffi..

As the result, we’re 1 hour late hehe.. Dad said it was the bus and train but I know bus and train have a regular fixed schedule so it must be them.. no.. don’t look at me, especially after Steffi called!!! In the train, to fix our first bad impression, Dad decided that we will meet Steffi at the bridge close to the Flinders St. Station, which is, according to Dad, close to Langham Hotel where Steffi stayed and it has some romantics effect or something like that.. but he forgot that there are two bridges.. both close to the station and the hotel…

Well, finally after some calls and re-arrangement we met. Thanks God!
Steffi looked tired, she said she was busy saying goodbye to friends in Dili in the last 1 week and so she decided to take some times off before heading back to WDC.. That’s very good for her.

First thing first, I got my present and early birthday and Christmas gift. Lovely!! Dad then busy convincing Mum about helping Steffi reducing her cigarettes by smoking one or two sticks.. they’re hiding on the corner and Mum took me away for a walk hehe.. I know they just don’t want me to see that and keep me away from the cigarettes and stuff. Dad then tried to take pictures using Steffi's camera.. I know that he's longing for that moment and as he touched that camera, I can tell you right now that I've never seen such a big smile on his face like that.. he's so happy hehe..

It was a good sun-shining day. Really beautiful. But it was cold too. After lunch at Nando’s and walking around and took some pictures, we (they actually, as I am going wherever they go..) decided to sit in front of the State Library. They talk and I play. I was playing “going up and down” the stairs when a young beautiful Chinese girl pointed at me. She and two of her friends got excited at me and I was scared. But they looked so nice, so I decided to sit next to them while their other friend took pictures. I know Dad was watching me, so I wasn’t too worry.. Well, after all, people loves cute boy like me hehe.. Sorry Dad, you’ve got Mum haha..

It was getting cold, especially for Steffi as she didn’t put on any winter clothes. So after 5pm, we decided to go home and also Dad need to attend his 6pm class. It was sad to bid farewell to Steffi, but I am sure we’ll meet again. Auf Wiedersehen!
