A walk thru Mbok's mini garden...

-
Last weekend was a very busy and tiring week for me and Mbok. As she had successfully sold her old house, she did a lot of cleaning up and I had the opportunity to help her with the moving and packing. What made it even more tiring was the hot weather. Ok, am not going into details but admist the chaotic atmosphere of moving and packing and unpacking at her new house, I managed to capture some photos of her mini garden at her new place. Well..just ignore the quality of the pictures taken as it was only taken from my Nokia X2 handphone.

Even my aunt Regina or fondly known as Usu Ina who is married to a melanau from Bintulu is at loss with her own Balingian dialect at times. So far, I've noticed that only my dad, my first cousins Lai & Kak Senah are still speaking this beautiful dialect fluently. Usu Ina converse mostly in the Mukah dialect and I observed that she would refer to Lai if she was not sure of the language itself. My dad and his siblings back in Balingian still converse in their own dialect but once they are out of their kampung, they would converse in the Mukah dialect again. Mmmmmmmmmmm....
