Throwback Thursday: Drama Puasa

Untuk mereka-mereka yang baru mengenali diri ini di usia pertengahan 30-an ni, semua cakap that I'm a Zen person. So calm and chill going through life. Yes I'll take that but to be at this point and this zen in my life right now. I've gone through and have created so many dramas in my first 30 years of my life. I can tell you that.

When teringat balik the first 30 years of my life, I can say that I've done almost everything and the amount of conflicts, scandals, dramas that I have gotten myself into memang tak terkira. So today I want to share this one drama masa puasa over 15 years ago. Masatu dekat asrama and biasalah budak sekolah and malas nak puasa tu berpisah tiada. Since dekat asrama you can't really hide yourself untuk curi-curi makan sebab you are surrounded with people all the time even dalam dorm and tandas pun. So nak curi-curi makan dekat mana je kan? Tapi seorang Faiz yang kuat drama dan panjang akal ni, I must come up with something so that I can excuse myself from puasa. I don't know if you guys remember but zaman tu ada Oreo special edition sempena cerita Shrek 2 where the cream is colour hijau. Kalau lupa korang google lah Shrek Oreos. Nak tau drama apa that I've created?

Benda ni I've planned in advance and I executed my plan in stages. Malam lepas berbuka tu I dah start buat-buat pening, usap-usap perut semua. So my friend at the time pun macam tanya, kenapa ni? okay ke tak. Masa terawih pun I acted loya-loya mual and the seniors pun macam concern, they ask me to stay aside sebab takut pitam ke muntah ke kan. One thing about me that I think not many know is that I can keluarkan air mata on demand. So masa tengah duduk dekat tepi tu sambil tunggu orang habis terawih, I shed a few tears just for some drama.

The next morning lepas sahur, I continue the phase 2 of my plan untuk tak nak berpuasa. After sahur lepas solat subuh berjemaah tu, I went to my locker and asingkan cream hijau oreo shrek tu and crush a few of the cookies and campurkan dengan air. It look so disgusting and exactly macam muntah. So I did all that masa masing-masing tengah mandi bersiap nak pergi sekolah kan. So when it was my turn untuk mandi, I chugged cairan oreo hijau tadi tu and slowly walking into the bilik air.

I was holding my chest while scanning the bilik air to see ada "audience" ke tak. I saw quite a few juga masa tu and paling penting my roommates pun ada and I said to myself "it is showtime"! I walked towards the bilik air and halfway I barfed and lepaskan segala cairan yang dikemam tadi. Everyone was so shocked and panicking tanya if I'm okay or not and of course drama air mata segala and I told them I feel sick. One of my roommates pun cakap "ye dari semalam nampak dia tak sihat" One of them took me to rumah warden and warden suruh rehat dekat sick bay lepastu dia suruh makan sebab perut I kosong akibat muntah kan. Maka dengan drama itu, I pun tak puasa lah untuk haritu. Can you imagine doing all that just because tak nak puasa? Macam-macam kan perangai zaman remaja and bila teringat balik rasa kelakar ada and of course lah rasa berdosa. Kau dah lah tak puasa, menipu pulak lagi. Berlipat ganda dosa di bulan puasa kan. So yeah, that's one of many drama puasa that I've created and experienced. korang masa remaja macam ni tak? Ke korang normal?
