Qaisara di attack lagi...

We had a very long and joyful holiday during EidulAdha celebration (will post about it later), but due to windy, rainy, cloudy weather: Qaisara again faced this Respiratory Infection thingy...thank god it's not as bad as the last attack..but still she needs to take some routine medication to heal..alhamdulillah no nebulising session..makan ubat aje..sian Qaisara, please pray for Qaisara's fast recovery ya!

Watch out you, damn virus!

Qaisara wishes: Happy Eidul Adha

My lil angel

She is growing up! How fast time flies..love you to bits baby!!

It's Friday

Yes, it's Friday. Am thinking of going to TGI's Friday, tapi siapa yang sudi membawaku? Hinted him last week during our outing to Pavilion, watching The Kingdom. Tapi tak dapat pun. And owh, JCO Donuts @ Pavilion really make me crazy! *drool*

Soo not in the mood. Mixed feelings today. Why eh? Btw, it's mogok week. Ah-ha, no wonder i'm not in the mood. Maybe.

I'm worried of something. It's a good thing people might say, but for me it's a oh-no-i'm-not-ready-yet thingy. Let's give it to the ONE to decide.

Please pray for me so that i can feel happier and relaxer, and please also get me the JCO donuts!

--moody n not happy

A short post

i have a friend, MAZLAN namanya. We studied at the same uni, taking the same course. Tapi masa tu dia majoring in System Eng, and i chose Software Eng [but at the end both of us terjun ke area network engineering]. After graduating, we both pursued our C***O network professional course and still, in the same class :P (what a co-incidence)

Now, we are working at the same company. What a mate: coursemate-->officemate. And yesterday, my very mate ni telah pun selamat diijabkabulkan with her soulmate. Ramainyee yang officemate lain yang datang. And owh, it was my first time to taste buffalo beef. Very the...SEDAP!

So happy for you mate! Congratulations!!!

Puppy Love, Eternal Love

Everybody! I'm celebrating my 10th anniversary of courtship with my husband! Yes, today.

Since we get married, there's no more celebration on the 14th, as the date has changed to every 2nd of June. (It's our solemnization)..so no more celebration la today..[i always wanted to..tapi tak ada org nak layan :( ]

10 years back was exactly in the year of 1997 and i was still, in form 5. We were in the same school, but i didn't know of his existence until we were in form 4. Being in different class, lagila tak kenal kan...the story began when both of us were chosen as our school magazine editorial board (where i was appointed as his assistant, masa tu dia jadi ketua editor of the magazine)--oh my, can't believe i'm writing this :P

Quoting our teacher's say when any of the editorial board asking permission to go out of the class for meeting or something: "Buat majalah sekolah ni satu tahun tak habis, busy sampai hujung tahun"--->ahaha, that reflected us: satu tahun tu jumpa, meeting, cari sponsor, photography session, covered story for any particular event happening at school(ye lah, kan nak msk kan cerita tu dalam majalah :P ) and so on...so that 1 whole-year-activities that made us need to meet each other every now and then had created the 'spark' between us (or should i say: dah memang gatal, kecik2 dah pandai nak mengorat ^_^)

Can't really remember when, but for sure somewhere in that year, i received a letter from the Ketua Editor! kwang kwang...i took quite few days to reply, (and menggelabah la jugak si ketua editor tu..takut2 if i let other people read the letter). Tapi masa tu, we considered the letter was only a letter to a friend, not love letter tau (walaupun dalam hati sendiri mmg define that as surat dpd boifren huhu). We only declared ourselves as lover on 14th of Nov 1997 (yikes! at the age of 17?) . That was the starting point, bringing us together until this day..maleh la elaborate panjang2..nnt jadi novel la pulak kan..

Huah! Am i writing all this? (still in disbelief)

Anyhow, I'm dedicating this to my beloved husband with a wish:

I love you, and only you. Happy our 10th Anniversary, dear!

Face Painting @ Damia's Birthday

Last Friday was one of Qaisara's nursery-mate birthday, and guess what: we enjoyed face painting activities! All kids were having much fun, except...Qaisara (appeda conteng2 muka sikit pun takmo ^_^)

Birthday celebrations are always held at this nursery, as most of the kids (which birthday falls on weekdays) spend almost the whole day there..so every month mesti ada big makan2, i think it's kinda happening having party with a lot of kids there.

Sweet Seven Ardini Damia

Time were quite limited for the celebration, (it was during Friday Prayer break, Damia's mum n me had to get back to work at 2.30) so the painting design was among the simplest..Managed to snap few pics with my handphone, but i missed the lil Spidey-Aiman and few more.

Painted faces, see Qaisara with the boringest look? hehe

'i hate face painting :( '

Qaisara: look at her face expression in sequence, looked like he hate the face painting the most! Haha, apalah anak mama ni.

Anyway, happy birthday to all celebrating it this month, especially to Qaisara's Grandma this coming 25th Nov!

Qaisara's Nightmare: Meeting Dr Christopher Lim

Not feeling well

A week after raya, we brought Qaisara to meet her paeds. Kesian my lil baby ni..her airways is too sensitive: that causes cold, wheezing and sneezing to happen very easily. To my surprise: Qaisara needs to take ventolin (to be inhaled for 5 days) and also Seretide (to be inhaled for 3 months). Ada lagi: Singulair (to be taken for 7 days) and one more (can't really remember the name, to be taken for 3 days) Hopefully after this, no more medication...

Siannye Qaisara!

Selamat Hari Raya!!!

~Mari bermaafan di Hari Raya~

Raya sebulan..INDEED! Last Sunday (dated 11/11) was finally how our 'raya kan sebulan' ended..still, 3 open house to attend (and of course to collect duit raya Qaisara ngeheheh). Very tiring, hectic raya this year. Weekends were full with open house and raya hopping (i didn't manage to settle even basic house chores on weekend, raya punya pasal la kan.. *wink*

However we had much fun! You know what, raya with your own baby defines new feelings: Semangat kutip duit raya!!! Qaisara managed to get around RM 800 (exact amt need to check with her Babah cum En bendahari). OK la tu, for beginner..next year kita kutip lagi..hehe

Qaisara's 1st raya experience

Babah Qaisara was really keen with Raya Hopping 10AM-10PM concept this year (and mama pun terpengaruh juge). We had raya hopping for our school friends and my office team-mate (dunno why hubby's office raya hopping x jadi).

My team-mate Raya Hopping

Itu saje cerita raya...now, back to work!

ehehehe

OOhh i'm so in love!

Putting everything needed by Qaisara n me, in ONLY one bag : this bag, I want! *sigh* bila nak dapat bonus ni :-(

Not Talking

Listening to what he said this morning, his words offend me. Really. So much.

BukaPuasa@Rahsia

Last Saturday was the very first time buka puasa@outside for 3 of us. We were having much fun (except part take turn taking care of Qaisara n makan), meeting old friends and their kids..

Well actually it was an annual event of our so-called 'school batch alumni'..Since most of us dah kawen n having at least a kid, we chose to held it during weekend...the venue; for me is just an OK restaurant..(i wonder what is so special sampai dapat quite a lot of award).

It was a good time for Qaisara to meet her friend(s), and also auntie2 and uncle2 yang becok n bising :D . BTW, Qaisara wore all pink on that day, but looked pretty much like a...BOY...err you judge it yourself hehe (pics courtesy of ketua batch)

with uncle Faizal yang nak kawen daa end of this year

Ini budak pompuan ka laki2?

With some of my good friends

Normally we are among the last person going back, but this year it turned out the other way..sbb Qaisara sudah mengamuk penat!

Do I (Qaisara) need a nebuliser?

Pity my lil princess, down due to bacterial pneumonia and really have to struggle breathing..
Haritu masa 3 bulan kene acute bronciolitis...sorry baby, mama n babah pun tatau nak buat macam mana to prevent it from happening again.. :-(

She went through quite a lot of nebulising session (utk legakan kesesakan nafasnya itu). That means mama n babah kenala ulang alik ke klinik at least 3 times a day for the session. Penat! [Today mama need to rush (from mama's office) to nursery to pick up and send Qaisara to the clinic for the session, lucky me to have an office near to the nursery and clinic as well]

So..i was thinking of..BUYING A NEBULISER MACHINE! One of my officemate has this at home..and the good thing is, it can be used by anybody..

What do you think? Is it worthwhile to spend for the machine?

Silent Mode

Will not be blogging for next week, (eleh macam la selalu sangat blog) sebabnya:

1. have to study for my BSCI paper, nak exam!
2. Bulan Ramadhan Al-Mubarak..better do al-quran reciting more (insya-allah) than blogging
3. am busy thinking of what to cook for breaking fast and iftar (ngeheheh)
4. Qaisara needs me more, now x sihat after injection last week..

So enjoy Qaisara pics while i'm away! And please pray for my recertification exam, too: kena refresh CCNP dulu la pulak before go for CCIP *sigh*

Refreshed!

Am back from one-week-tedious-yet-useful training...ehehe n kena baca buku for the exam..heh! Hopefully i managed to get myself prepared for it...dah la bulan puasa exam tu..


Speaking of bulan puasa, this is our first puasa with dearest Qaisara.. Will i manage to prepare the food for breaking the fast, and Iftar as well? Frankly speaking, it is sooo hard to cook with the presence of Qaisara (unless if she's sleeping). Hmmm macam mana eh? teringat my husband comment on my very simple dish yesterday: Sedapla awak masak harini..walaupun telur aje tp mmg sedap. Telur aje? huhuihui..tersangat la simplenya lauk itu. Sebab itu je yang termampu. Qaisara needs my attention more :D

Whatever the reason is, i plan (have to) cook and cook for both of us..takkan nak beli aje everyday kan..i must! i must! i must!

Will update u guys for all dishes i cook (insya-allah)

AHLAN WASAHLAN YA RAMADHAN

Ingin ku katakan..tapi pada siapa...

@#$%&^*(&^%$%#$#^%$^()&% )(&*&^*&!#%*!#@

--sad :-(

The Real Thing

I've seen your face a thousand times
Have all your stories memorized
I've kissed your lips a million ways
But I still love to have you around

I've held you too many times to count
I think I know you inside out
And we're together most days
But I still love to have you around

You're the one I want and it's not just phase
You're the one I trust, our love is the real thing

Don't go away
My love (my love)
I want you to stay
In my life
Don't go away
My lover (my love)
I'm happiest when we spend time

You're a salty water ocean wave
You knock me down, you kiss my face
I know the storms will always come
But I still love to have you around

Heaven knows what will come next
So emotional, you're so complex
A rollercoaster built to crash
But I still love to have you around

You're the one I want and it's not just phase
You're the one I trust, our love is the real thing
Don't go away
My love (my love)
I want you to stay
In my life
Don't go away
My lover (my love)
I'm happiest when we spend time (it's only you and I)

It's you there when I close my eyes
And you in the morning
I never thought you'd still be mine
Or I'd really need to have you around

Don't go away
My love (my love)
I want you to stay
In my life
Don't go away
My lover (my love)
I need you, you're my love supply

Don't go away
My love (you're my love supply)
I want you to stay
In my life (every day, every night)
Don't go away
My love (you're my love supply)
I need you, you're my love supply

Makan2, tengkiu boss!

Our team had a mouthful lunch today..special thanks to our beloved boss for such a big treat! Eheh..bos kita baikk...ari ni dia belanja lunch@chili's..lps tu maher belanja latte@starbucks plak..thanks ya!

For piccas, later ya peeps!

You did it, babe!

Motoring Hunt: must-join, not-to-be-missed event. That is exactly what it means to my husband. As for me, penat aje: get up as early as six (during weekend tu!) for the 1 whole day hunt. If you win, it's your luck..but if not, hrrmmpphh..for me buat rugi bayar yuran penyertaan aje (which is not really cheap, at least 100 bucks ok, can be up to 200!)

I can say...he is addicted to it. Spending hundreds (this month he joins 3 hunt, you calculate the fee) for this hobby, he will..Collection of the questions at our house: boleh buat library :)
His hunt accessories: The clipboard, dictionary, thesaurus, pens, map..(don't think only budak sekolah ada dictionary)

T-shirt he got from the hunt-a lot! Tak payah beli baju selalu..banyak sangat baju free hihi..and he is proud wearing it. (bukan senang nak dapat the shirt..konon :P )

Sometimes, i was thinking...perabih duit masuk hunt tu..x selalu menang besar pun...klu duit tu beli my shoes lagi best...tp last week was kewl gitu...you brought back 1K!

Congratulations, dear!

Aqiqah Qaisara : 1st of July 2007

Qaisara's aqiqah ceremony was held last 2 weeks, (only managed to upload the pics today hehe). She behaved very well that day...(tapi dah petang surrender, terus mengamuk 'kepenatan berlakon baik'). Not much photos taken, since semua org busy..this is the best pic (i can say) that can be uploaded. Will upload others later...

Little Qaisara turns 3 months

Last Sunday was her 3rd months old birthday..how fast time goes by!

Ah-ha!

motherhood isn't easy..

It was almost 5 months i leave this blog with no updates at all. (Yes, at all!)
Not many things happened during that particular period, but surely the most joyous moment i had in those 5 months dated 8th of april--the arrival of our little bundle of joy: QAISARA

Went through confinement was like..hell!(Ish tak baik cakap camtu, it was for my own good) Believe me, orang yang sangat sabar saje yang kata confinement is ok. Tapi best, first class service: macam puteri raja ok! Thanks to my beloved mother..Tolong jaga me and my baby...
This really make me think: kesian orang yang tak ada mak..siapa yang nak jaga masa pantang? Nobody can take care of you as good as your mother..prepare the food for 'org dalam pantang', pakaikan barut/bengkung, urutkan badan, and even siapkan air mandi tau! Tu tak kira jaga baby yang meragam at night..Again, thank you very much mak. Luv ya!

It was time to leave mak after confinement, and suddenly i feel so sad..ahah, being so comfy at home made me homesick when i returned to KL..but life must go on...

Too many things to face, taking care of the baby alone (i mean with no more help from mak), back to work etc..that makes me laaagiii x sempat nak update blog. Later ya!

As for now, i'm proud to present my little girl:-

Baby Qaisara is now 6kg!

It's February...

Well,

Time flies...we are now in Mid of Feb already...February will always be my favourite month of all because:

1. My birthday falls in this month, as well as my brother, my husband and also my father.
2. Err..tu je kot ( i guess reason no 1 should be enough to make Feb the most awaited month)

3 birthdays passed by:

1. My lil brother 19th birthday on the 10th
2. My hubby 27th birthday on the 7th
3. My 27th birthday on the 15th

February facts:

1. I got my Valentine rose on the 15th (a day after). We don't actually celebrate it but i gave him a card though..so maybe he felt like not giving anything but only wishes, he bought me a rose the next day..(which happened to be my birthday) Why on 15th? because "hari ni satu kuntum 5 ringgit saja..kalau u beli semalam 15 ringgit maa" that was exactly si penjual bunga said to him, he claimed.

2. On the day i got the rose, i only got the rose! Oh, and the birthday card. I supposed i don't deserve any birthday present this year, as all the 'fund' is now funded to our lil one who is on the way to meet us this april..hmm..last year i had to sacrifice for our wedding, this year for the baby pulak...am i destined to not getting any present anymore? :-(

3. During our sweet-old-time, my husband (boifriend back then) was always "tiru" the idea of giving birthday present. Since his birthday was 8 days earlier than me, he will tiru all my gifts idea. For this year, the card he gave was almost the same design with the one a gave him the previous week! Huh, hubby you never change, and won't change i guess..will show you guys the card...then you evaluate ok.

4. Me also don't deliver the birthday present for my husband :D The "thing" is in my mind..it's just that physically still in the shop :-) Still no time to go to the shop and get one for hubby...my condition now doesn't allow me to rush here and there alone. So still kena tunggu my very busy husband to accompany me...

5. I got a very nice MMS birthday wish from my brother written Happy Birthday Along.

6. Not to be forgotten: in the office, one major outage happened on my birthday and i'm the one who attended it. Tak ong ka my birthday? :-(

babymoon

You've heard of a honeymoon. Well, now, make room for the "babymoon." It's a new trend, common among first-time-parents-to-be, who see it as one of the last vacations they'll take before "baby makes three."

The term "babymoon," was coined by British author and childbirth educator Sheila Kitzinger, who defines it as the important time a family spends together alone during a baby's first few days of life.
Many couples take a "babymoon" during the second trimester (when the risk of miscarriage is lower). And travel experts say, Florida and the Caribbean are their destinations of choice.

Time on the beach, at a nice resort, being pampered before your belly and family expand... it sounds wonderful. Makes me wish I had taken a "babymoon" when I was pregnant with my daughter. However, if you don't have the money to take advantage of the "babymoon" packages offered by resorts and spas, but you still want "special time" with your spouse, consider a weekend trip close to home. After all, often it's not where you are, but whom you are with, that makes for a memorable trip.

--Quoted from travel.families.com/blog/what-is-a-babymoon

MY DEAR HUSBAND, I NEED A BABYMOON!

2007 already?

Cepatnya masa berlalu...can't believe it's now 2007...dah mid of Januari dah pun...very sure APRIL is aproaching so soon..(huh takutnye)

Many things happened on December and yet to be summarized before we start a new 2007 stories. First of all i'd like to congratulate my friend YATIE, on her wedding held in Terengganu. We came to share the joyous moment (and perabih duit dekat Pasar Payang as well)...

Congratulation Yatie and Haizul

Celebrated our Raya Haji with inlaws, still manage to go back to my hometown to celebrate my lil brother's engagement...congratulations both of you :)

hehe..hantaran instant done by us!

A week after new year, hubby and I went to Genting (dapat hotel RM1). Here, we (hubby actually) found a very interesting and useful station that we thought we had never found it anywhere else before:

A free handphone-charging station!

Sooo many chargers for different model of phones

Menarik kan? For emergency cases, you'll find it really useful...

My 2006 events and histories was wrapped with a not to be forgotten+demotivated event: 4 of my geng minum petang at the office had left the company for a better career move in MNC companies in Cyberjaya...their loss were really affecting my minum petang routine..especially during my shift..ergh...lps ni nak minum ngan sape :-((

Hopefully this new year will be a very prosperous, lucky year to me and giving me more good things, more money, perhaps :-)
