Legend of a Pineapple.
And look who's here? Miss me. Told yah, I'm an "on and off" minor minor blogger. Lol. Yeah, it's been a year - I can hear you... lol.
I was checking my inbox this weekend on promotional items or freebies because unless you are using your corporate email your personal one will always be exclusive to promos, deals and tempting offers to spent away from your monies. Or unless you are someone looking for a new jobs or opportunities, which is absolutely another story, lol. Now while playing peeping tom - one email caught my attention. I wasn't really checking each of the emails but rather scanning through pages of the unopened ones. Then one mail caught my attention. It was from Google Adsense informing me that my (or generally) Publisher ID has been changed from "ca-pub-xxx" to "pub-xxx" format and it will make a big impact if you are monetizing your blog. It simply won't credits activities using the old format. Imagine you have millions of impressions and views, that's a lot of money so it is important to update your blog.
It was sent to me some years ago, lol. For a minor minor blogger like me, it won't make a difference (lol) but then again what so hard not to update it eh. Of course, I updated the code of my blog while staring tearfully with my Adsense balance, lol.
And that's exactly the reason I am updating my blog. Actually my channel is quite active in Facebook, from time to time I got followers and Likes. My FB page is currently at 5k following not bad for a minor minor blogger like me. And now, I decided to sync it with my other channels like Youtube (if you noticed there are only 2 subscriber to date, lol), and of course this blog.
So without further ado. Here's your alamat story. I have to summarized it in case your children happened to have a homework similar to this. Just copy and paste and VOILA.
A long time ago when pineapple was not yet known to anyone. In a faraway village, there lived a mother and daughter. Aling Rosa and her daughter named Pinang. She is ten years old. Her father died when she was young. Aling Rosa wants her to grow up obedient and hardworking. So she is teaching her life lessons at a very early age. She would teach her household chores but Pinang easily gets tired. Because they were the only two living together, Aling Rosa most of the time will just let it go.
One day Aling Rosa was not feeling well and was bedridden. She cannot do household chores so she asks Pinang to cook. And like before, Pinang's enthusiasm for doing the chores is bland, she would rather want to play instead.
Pinang was forced to follow her mother being on the bed and having hard time getting up but before she even starts to cook, she asked her mother where is the cooking ladle. A minute later and she came back asking where are the other cooking utensils. And not a bit after - she came back again asking for another utensil.
Out of anger, Aling Rosa - weak and lying on the bed unable to control her composure shouted Pinang and tell her to look using her eyes and not her mouth and swearing she wished she could have as many eyes to help her find anything she is looking.
Pinang keeps herself quiet for the whole day and never bothers her mother again. By noon, her mother was feeling better and able to carry herself. She gets up looking for Pinang inside their house but can't find her. She went outside and still couldn't find Pinang, and then she found her slippers near a plant she never saw before. There are many eyes around it or at least looks like eyes. And she remembers what she said to Pinang that she wished she has more eyes for her to see what she is looking.
Aling Rosa was saddened that her words came true. She took care of the plant like it was her daughter and named it Pinang - in memory of her daughter. Years later and the plants multiplied. Her neighbors started calling the plant "pinya" and to these days... We call it Pinya.
