Christchurch quake, day 3...
Cuaca hari tenang, matahari dah kuarkan sinar,,lega sikit. Aftershock masih ada tapi tak sekerap mana, sekarang kami tak risau berapa tinggi magnitude aftershock, yang risau skrg berapa jauh jarak pusat gempa. kalau jarak dekat, kemusnahan lagi teruk, lihat saja Christchurch sekarang. Bandarayanya musnah, habis semua banguanan sejarah hancur sekelip mata. yang dulu utuh berdiri, setelah digegar kali kedua, rebah menyembah bumi akhirnya dan banyak nyawa yang hilang.
Sampai sekarang aku masih mengimbau kejadian tiga hari lepas. Pagi kami macam biasa cumanya hujan renyai2, pagi tu juga ada beberapa orang yang aku sapa semasa menunggu Big Daddy selesai buat x-ray.last sekali kami pergi buat blood test.Kat situ ada 5 orang patient(termasuk kami), seorang warga emas yang baik sggh, senyuman tak lekang, seorang ibu bersama anak, Noah namanya, sorang lagi wanita , muda sikit dari aku. 12.40 t/hari,urusan kami selesai di situ dan aku lihat si kecil Noah dipimpin oleh ibunya masuk ke bilik rawatan. Earthquake strikes by 12.51 pm! Terpikir aku apa yang berlaku pada mereka semua tu..kesian, tempat terakhir yg kami pergi itu menjadi salah satu tempat yang mengalami kerosakan teruk. masih terbayang2 lagi wajah2 mereka ini..selamat@tidak...berikut aku petik ucapan dari Perdana Menteri New Zealand yang menyentuh hati :
New Zealanders have woken to a tragedy unfolding in the great city of Christchurch.
The earthquake that struck the Canterbury region at ten to one yesterday has wreaked death and destruction on a dreadful scale.
There is no reason that can make sense of this event.
No words that can spare our pain.
We are witnessing the havoc caused by a violent and ruthless act of nature.
Many people have lost their lives. Families have lost their cherished loved ones. Mates have lost their mates.
These deaths are the greatest loss.
They remind us that buildings are just buildings, roads just roads, but our people are irreplaceable.
Today all New Zealanders grieve for you Christchurch.
To all those who woke up in Christchurch today feeling lucky to be alive, we know that you too are shocked, unnerved and grieving.
We know that your loss is sharpened by fear.
Our minds go to the mothers and fathers comforting children struck by anxiety and disbelief.
They go to the elderly, infirm and isolated who experienced this event alone and who remain blunted by shock.
And they go to each and every Cantabrian who has stoically endured six months of aftershocks, only to be hit by the biggest shock of all.
On behalf of New Zealand let me say to all of you: We feel your pain, as only a small nation can, for none of us feel removed from this event.
I am a proud son of Christchurch. I was raised there, I got my first job there, my sister lives there, my mother died there, I know what a wonderful place it is.
But my connection to Christchurch is no rare thing.
All New Zealanders have a piece of our heart in Christchurch.
All of our lives are touched by this event.
A friend or family member who lives there. A time spent studying there or a memorable experience had there.
We feel connected to your suffering. Your tragedy is our tragedy.
Today I want Christchurch to hear this message:
You will get through this.
This proud country is right behind you and we are backing you with all our might.
The world is with us.
Our Australian neighbours, our British and American friends, the great countries of this world, all are putting their shoulder to your wheel. They are sending their support, their expertise, their people to help us.
Christchurch, today is the day your great comeback begins.
Though your buildings are broken, your streets awash, and your hearts are aching, your great spirit will overcome.
While nature has taken much from you, it can not take your survivor’s spirit.
This devastating event marks the beginning of a long journey for your city.
It will be a journey that leads us from ruins and despair to hope and new opportunities. From great hardship will come great strength.
It will be a difficult journey, but progress is certain, things will get better, Christchurch will rise again.
On behalf of the Government, let me be clear that no one will be left to walk this journey alone.
New Zealand will walk this journey with you. We will be there every step of the way.
Christchurch; this is not your test, this is New Zealand’s test.
I promise we will meet this test.
Today and tomorrow our focus must be on preserving lives, on rescuing those who are trapped and treating those who are injured.
We pay tribute to the hundreds of search and rescue workers, emergency personnel, medical professionals and each and every person who is contributing to this effort.
You are heroes amongst us.
Already the bravery and resilience of Canterbury is on show.
In the weeks ahead our journey will take us to new obstacles, new challenges.
We have a city to rebuild. We have peoples’ livelihoods to restore. We have a community’s confidence to inspire.
We will rise to these challenges.
We will rebuild this city resolutely, and with the conviction that this is what it is to be a Cantabrian, what it is to be a New Zealander.
We are a country of pioneers. Whether we came by waka, sailboat, or aeroplane, we came with the conviction that we could build a new life in this country.
That great pioneering spirit will come to the fore in Christchurch over the coming months and years.
Though lost lives will never be replaced, and though your city will never look the same again, you will rebuild your city, you will rebuild your lives, you will overcome.
We have seen many cities in the world come back from disasters on this scale, and Christchurch will be no exception.
I know that all New Zealanders stand ready to help.
Right now, we can help by rallying around those who are grieving, supporting those whose livelihoods are in peril.
My message to all Kiwis who want to help is - act on that desire.
No act of kindness is too small.
Right now, you can help by offering support to friends and family who are hurting. Offer them a bed or a roof over their head if that is what they need. Make your donations to help those who have been hit hardest.
As infrastructure recovers, your visits to Christchurch will be welcome.
Above all, throughout this journey, offer those affected your love. Know that your humanity is more powerful than any act of nature.
As we look to the future, New Zealanders should know that the Government is going to do everything we can to support the recovery and rebuilding of Christchurch.
We are a resilient nation, and we will not bow down to this challenge.
Now let me turn to events of today.

Lunch Quake!
Hari ni mmg hari yg sangat menakutkan. Sekali lagi Christchurch dilanda gempa bumi berskala 6.3. W/pun agak kecik berbanding tahun lepas, kali ni mmg fatal quake. Setakat ni 65 kematian(yg dicatat), Christchurch mmg musnah!!!
Aku amat2 bersyukur kerana pada waktu kejadian kami dalam kereta,dalam perjalanan nak pergi beli lauk. Actually pagi nya tu dalam pkl 11 kami berada di dalam bandar kerana membuat beberapa urusan. Suasaan pagi ni agak muram dan sejuk, hujan renyai2, mungkin ni salah satu tanda malapetaka besara bakal melanda.. Walallahualam..
Jam 12.30 tengahari , kami betul2 berada di pusat bandar, hari ni 3 beranak saja sbb yg lain pegi sekolah. Sudah saja urusan di Kilmore Street, kami ingat nak ronda2 masuk bandar utk carik makan sbb t/hari, perut pun dah berkeroncong. Cadang aku nak makan nasi Afghan kat Colombo Street, ntah macam mana terpikir nak pegi beli laukla.
maka bertukar laluan masuk ke Dean Avenue, kat situlah tiba2 terasa kereta bagai digoncang2, jalan berombak2, a few second saja dia makin teruk, Big daddy cuba tekan brek, namun keta masih skidded..Ya Allah! gempa bumi lagi..masa ni terus terbayang muka anak2. rasa macam nak terbang je pegi ambik derang. Aqeef mula menagis, aku langsung lupa macam mana nak release seatbelt...mata dh berair nak menangis.
Big daddy suruh baca ayat kursi, aku baca tapi hati bagai nak luruh pikirkan anak2 yang lain. Perjalanan ke rumah rasa lambat sgt, Aqeef tertido di carseat, siren berbunyi merata-rata, keta polis makin banyak di jalan, ramai org keluar dr bangunan, panic dan risau makin teruk, rasa lapar hilang serta merta,kereta terpaksa diperlahankan dan ramai jugak yg berenti . Sebaik saja sampai di Lincoln, rasa macam nak melompat keluar pegi ambik anak. Alhamdullilah semuanya selamat.
Setakat ini 65 kematian, gempa paling teruk melanda berlaku pada waktu tengahhari, sedih, say u, takut, semuanya bercampur baur......

Cerita seorang surirumah.
Namaku Rose, tahun ni genap 3 tahun aku bergelar surirumah tangga sepenuh masa,Domestic Manager. Jadualku hari-hari padat, nak jumpa buat appoitment dulu.Dulu aku ingat kerja suri rumah fulltime ni senang jek,kemas, masak, then boley rileks,tak payah nak pikir nak kejar dateline ke, minit mesyuarat ke, seminar ke..Rupa-rupanyaaa....
Sangkaanku meleset. Tugas sebagai Domestic manager ni lagi sibuk, Perdana Menteri pun tak boleh lawan!!Seriously buzy. Dengan kapasiti rumah seramai 7 orang(termasuk akulah)memang buat aku tak menang tangan. Di tambah pula dengan si kecik yang clingy sungguh ni. Jadualku bermula seawal 6 pagi(ni depends pada season ya, kalo summer gini kenala lagi awal bangkit, Subuh tersangat awal!)nak tido balik mmg tak mau lelap dah. bila aku bangkit, kecik ni bangkit sekali, rutin pertama, keluarkan baju dr mesin( basuh malam sbb nak jimat letrik..hihihi),then buat sarapan. Masa ni terasa sibukla sangat sbb nak mengejutkan lagi 4 orang askar yang tido,pagi mmg meriah(nasib rumah sebiji-sebiji, kalo teres mcm kat Kl mau hangin jiran sebelah), berkeriau suara mcm burung, jerit, pekik, nangis, macam2 ada..kata Big daddy tak yah pakai surround speaker, bdk2 ni punya suara dh cukup bising.
Become a mummy with 5 kids, you must be super duper extra fast. Tangan, kaki seme kena pantas. Siap buat sarapan, dah nak kena siapkan bdk2, nak suruh derang mandi makan masa sejam, bila dah mandi lama la pulak kat bilik mandi, dah nak kena check setiap minit. bak kata my son" My mummy is really bossy". Iyalah kalo tak buat gitu derang duk senang lenang main2..tahu2 lambat na p sekolah. kalo suruh Bid daddy uruskan bdk2 mmg conpem lambatlah pegi sekolah.suruh kejut anak, dgn dia2 p landing sblh anak!!mau aku tak grumpy! Pagi2 rupa aku dah macam Sarjan, dgn baton kat tangan, suara high volume..huh!
settle bdk pegi sekolah, rutin rumah yg biasa, mengemop, cuci yang mana patut, dan aku sarapan sambil berjalan( which is very bad!), tahu2 dah t/hari,kena p menjemput bujang no 4 kat kindy, bujang kecik ni mmg mummy's best body guard. takmo lepas langsung! Bila yang yang lain balik sekolah, xtxt aku lagila sibuk, settlekan derang makan, then settlekan bilik yg macam tunggang langgang( pagi ok, cantik..bila derang balik..habis!). Rutin masak, kemas, masak, kemas ni berakhir bila t/malam. kadang2 bila time mood aku berswing, aku biarkan je walaupun mataku sakit sakit tgk huru hara kat rumah ni. I Need my break!huhuhuuu..pikir2 balik rasa nak balik kerja...
Tapi sebenarnya inilah hakikat, jadik surirumah ni mmg indah w/pun kerja non stop dan gaji tak menentu. Bonus mmg toksah mimpi nak dapat tapi mmg berbaloi sbb mampu utk siap sediakan makan minum anak2. Tidaklah makan kedai(zaman aku kerja, mmg makan kedai sajalah jawabnya). Paling best sbb dapat duduk berguling dgn derang, hari2 duk bergomol sampaikan Big daddy kadang2 jeles sbb dia banyak habiskan masa di lab. Bila dia balik, anak2 dh tido, jumpa dgn derang pun waktu sarapan dan waktu makan t/hari. Itu jelah. Kadang2 kesian tengok, pagi2 sblm mandi dia mengelek yg kecik ni, takpun p baring semula dgn anak2 yg lain. He really miss them!
sampaikan satu hari dia cakap" Mi,video cam tu asal tak pakai? pakailah,rakam apa budak2 ni buat sari2, bila free kang kita boleh tgk..kesiankan?Gitulah pengorbanan yg perlu dia buat, kalo tak kan tak habis nnti.Nasib baik anak2 faham..sementara saja, besok bila Big daddy habis nnti,tak adalah gap macam ni.
Ginilah kisah aku sehari-hari..hihhii..bukan best pun tapi saja nak mengetuk keyboard computer..ahahks..

Dia conference, kami bercuti..
Last week kami ke Hanmer Springs. Ni dah kali ke berapa dah datang ke mari,jarak perjalanan dalam 1jam lebih dari Christchurch, tapi dari Lincoln ni dalam 4 jam lah..hihhiii..dia ke conference , kami holidayyy..
Hanmer Springs ni satu pekan kecik yang dikelilingi oleh gunung ganang.Sangat cantik dan mendamaikan. Kat sini juga ada open thermal pool(bukan free, kena bayar), ada sulphur pool dan macam2 pool la. Kalo nak mandi m anda bolehlah.Musim winter adalah musim paling cantik kat sini,gunung ganang dikelilingi tu putih melepak jadiknya.Kami duduk kat sini dalam 5 hari, so 4 hari big daddy pegi conference,the rest of the company enjoy..heheheh. Cuaca cantik,tapi malam masih lagi sejuk sbb dalam kawasan hutan dan gunung ganang kan?Kali ni kami pegi tak pegi pool sbb Aqeef allergic, pool macam tu tak sesuai eczema dia.
Tak mengapa sbb kat sini banyak aktiviti. Kat rumah yg kami duduk pun penuh dgn games board, badminton la, tennis la, jadik budak2 tak bosan langsung. Pagi2 kami brisk walk ke pekan, dlm 2 minit je pun dari rumah kami duduk, big daddy punya conference pun depan rumah je, so tak risau nk drive ke hapa.Kami enjoy la, tapi Big Daddy ada sikit stress. Dia present poster tapi nervousnya mcm kena present, tapi mmg gitu pun selalu..mmg dia amat fobia kalo bab2 public speaking ni.
Anyway nak citer psl rumah kami duduk, rumah ni cantik dan comel. Ada dua bilik sajatapi sangat cosy. Kitchen jenis open space..I like ittt..ada washing machine skali(hak ni paling seronok sbb bila balik takyah bawak balik dirty laundry). Ada laman kecik tapi cantik, siap ada kusi taman (kami dinner kat taman kecik ni lah)..w/puncuaca agak sejuk tapi bila makan nasik/lauk panas2 sedap.Big Daddy tak join kami masa dinner sbb dia dinner kat hotel( balik je merungut sbb kena makan vegetarian punya menu..hahahhaha..nasib badan).Tengah malam masuk dapur makan nasik!!
Pagi lps Big daddy pegi conference, kami pegi library,duduk kat situ berjam2. Library kat sini seronok, budak2 boleh main game kat computer, aku dgn kakak dan 2 lagi askar kecik ni duk baca buku. Aqeef mmg suka buku. Dia akan duduk dan dgr dgn baiknya. Malam kedua kat sini , Big Daddy kata dia nervous sbb esoknya akan present poster, since kali ni hanya ada 3 org saja penyertaan dr students, the rest from the lecturers, dan scientists yg dah punya research power gila!( kata dia). Dia cuak , takut ada soklan2 yg takmampu dia jawab dan dia tak confident pun akan menang sebarang award based on poster dia yang amatlah simple(bagi aku cantik, ringkas tapi padat). Aku bagitahulah yg aku berharap sangat poster dia menang, kata dia balik "Over confident sokmo!" heheheheh.
On the event day, t/hari tu dia balik dgn muka berpeluh2, sakit perut katanya. aku agak dah sbb ni tanda nervous dia la tu,I said nothing just him him a cheeky smiles and put some oitment to him. Katanya bertubi2 soklan panel judges tanya, judges kali ni dari US, Australia dan UK,aku tanya boleh jawab dak? katanya dia dgn confident, jawab tu boleh cumanya nervous la..aku kata" owh! ingatkan gugup trus, ok la tu..menang la tu nanti". Dia luku kepala aku dan trus blah ke conference!! Adehh..
Hari ke 3 ada big dinner, aku paksa dia pakai baju batik..hahaha..ada ke nak p dinner pakai santai.Nasib baik ada bawak baju tu dulu, jadikla penyelamat.balik je dr dinner trus dia bercerita psl pengalaman dia lah..sambil mengomel sbb hari2 kena makan sayur..
the last day of conference, aku tanya dia, derang dah announce winner ke? dia jawab..belommmm..toksah mimpilah nak menang. aku cakap ..haisshh jangan cakap gitu, mestimenanglah..lagi aku kena luku pastu dia blah. Then....
Tiba-tiba dia balik dengan muka pucat..aku panic sbb ingat dia sakit perut ke hapa?..Dia mintak air kosong, habis ditenguknya , dgn suara slow2 rock"Mi, poster tu menanglah..betul kata Umi"..huhuhuuu..Alhamdullilah!! poster dia menang lagi. Aku balas balik huh! tak sia2 kena luku kepala hari2..hehehhe
Budak2 happy bila tahu Big Daddy dapat award, bila ajakbalik derang takmo balik! nak duk kat Hanmer Springs!..tapi mmg best pun kat sini, sekolah just a few minutes walk fromhome, sblh rumah ada cafe' tempat aku lepak ngan anak2 sambil minum coffee, library pun best, tak crowded..tapi gitulah kena baliklah jugak , seronok macam pun, rumah kat Lincoln jugak jadik pujaan hati..On the way balik, aku mintak nak buat Bungy Jumping, skali Bid daddy kata" Tak yahlah..putus tali nanti" kurang asam betul!!

Today's story
Hari ni pagi2 lagi kami keluar jalan-jalan makan angin.Suasana pagi tenang sangat, seronok sungguh. Hajat dihati nak cari garage sales tapi niat terpaksa dibatalkan mandangkan cash money belum withdraw.Mana ada garage sales pakai ETPOS machine.ahaks..
Masa lalu di tepi Hagley Park tadi, tiba2 terlintas idea nak menulis pasal Christchurch ni. Unuk makluman pada sapa yg belum sampai ke mari, Christchurch ni banyak taman,jadik bila hari-hari cuti begini banyak aktiviti akan kita nampak, jogging, main rugbi, main kricket, main golf, naik beskal, ni semua aktiviti untuk semua peringkat, dari seawal umo baby sampailah ke golongan veteran. Aku bet suasana begini amatlah biasa di negara luar,tapi rasa akulah payah nak tengok aktiviti beriadah gini kat KL@ mana tempat di Malaysia. Mungkin sekarang dah banyak kot dibuat taman2 utk beraktiviti bersama famili.
Bila lalu di pinggir bandar Christchurch ni, kita akan lihat orang berbasikal, tgh bersihkan laman, potong rumput satu kemestian. hak ni aku kagum sbb jarang-jarang tengok kawasan di Christchurch ni bersemak samun.Derang jaga sangat, sama-sama ambil berat. Baguskan?
laman rumah aku sendiri kat sini, setiap 2 mggu kena potong. Selain dari risau house inpection, malu sbb tgk rumah jiran2 yg semuanya kemas dan teratur.Hhhiihi..lagi satu kat sini aku peratikan setiap rumah akan punya vegetable beds sendiri. Derang bercucuk tanam, aku ada la jugak ini siatif bercucuk tanam, tapi lps pokok cili aku mati, terus tak buat sampai sekarang tapi suka tengok orang punya..masa tu mulalah berangan mcm2..kuat aku ni berangan. Ada yang jadik, ada yg tidak..
Bila baca blog kak Lemon, rasa geram pulak tgk hasil tanaman dia..rajinnnya..jeles aii..tapi takat tu jelah..hihi. Tapi yang nyatakan akan aku kutip idea2 kat sini utk dizahirkan pada laman rumah aku nanti..Rumah belum ada..berangan dulu..hihi. aku nak buat vegetables eds, nampak kemas sikit dan satu lagi tak payah nak gali buat batas.
Rumah kakak di kajang pun pun banyak jugak tanaman. Derang suami isteri mmg minat menanam ni. Mostly bungala, dan derang ada banyak jugakla koleksi orkid yang cantik2..
tapi gitulah kisah hari ni, aku berangan punya rumah yang ada organik veges..mesti bestkan..

Umi, mother nature angry again because I just fell earthquake just now!!
Panjang tak tajuk entry ni?hehehehhe..bukan apa baru beberapa minit tadi ada afterquake, quite strong, because it last for few seconds jugak la. Our tv's was shaking and my little one is gigling because he thought it was fun. He might think that someone is shaking the house and he can felt the vibrate..Aiyohh!!
Yang sebenarnya I'm a bit panic just now, still got the panic nerve walaupun dah berjuta kali dah shaking and rambling ni,hari ni saja ikut rekod dah 3 kali aftershake tapi tak kuat.. yang ni consider kuatla jugak.My son tgh maincomputer kat dalam and suddenly he came out and said" Hey Umi,I felt the earthquake just now. I think someone is doing bad to earth and mother nature is angry again". Itulah dia punya andaian walaupun dah berkali kami terangkan yang kejadian semua ini datangnya dari Allah. DIA mahu menguji kejauh mana ingatan kita kepadaNya.
Dalam kepala terus terlintas nak call my suami.Dia kat lab sekarang dan di tingkat atas sekali, bila shaking and rambling gini, tempat dialah paling kuat terasa. Pastu pikir nak carik anak2 yg duk main kat luar, pastu mcm2 la pikir. Then bila tengok muka kecik ni tersengih2,panik aku ilang. Aku tarik nafas dalam2, lepas tu baru clear minda. My Atif said" Don't worry umi, it won't last, It's gonna be away, we'll ok"..
Bila dah reda, tu yang datang idea nak menulis kat blog ni. Bila ilham datang, kena tulis terus, kalo tidakkan ilang..tak best nak mengarang balik..hihhiihii..orait peeps, need to log out now. See you in the next entry!
