Perasaan

2011-02-07T16:30:00.004+08:00

I have 2 grandmothers, both named Ami..and we don't call them both as nenek..just atok..not sure why atok and not nenek..since both nenek are having the same name, we have another name (funny, yet practical i thought) to differentiate them both.

Tok Ami (my mother's mother) is a thin lady, so she deserves Tok Ami Kurus name. And the other Tok Ami (my father's mother) of course will have to take Tok Ami Gemuk name..(padahal idak lah gemuk mana, sedang2 aje badannya gitu)..but that's how we called both our grannies...

We are not really close to Tok Ami Gemuk, relatively...my father was taken care by his auntie, not his mother..(ok..so actually I have like 3 grannies overall). So does my father, he is not close to his own mother.

Not really sure of Tok Ami's age, I guess she must be really old that she doesn't really hear and see perfectly now..and sometimes she couldn't even recognises us. It is sad so see that. Apatah lagi bila membayangkan adakah kita akan seperti dia nanti..The most sad part, she is now hospitalised, in unconscious state. It is painful to see her in that condition, but I believe Allah must have better plans for her.

The most touching part is, to see the reaction of my father facing this situation. He doesn't really look sad (luaran lah, dalaman tak tahu)..unlike one of his brother, who cried looking at Tok Ami lying unconsciously on the bed.

I did complaint this to my mother in front of him "Mak, abah tak datang dekat atok pun..macam tak ada perasaan je" and this is what replied during his conversation with one of my brother in law:

" Along cakap abah tak ada perasaan tengok Atok macam tu. Macam mana abah nak ada perasaan, abah tak pernah tahu pun dia tu mak abah..yang abah tahu Atok Embam (the one who took care of him) tu emak abah. Macam mana abah nak ada perasaan"

As anak, I felt guilty to hear the confession (kalau aku x komplen, mesti benda ni x terkeluar dari mulut abah)..but at the same time, I'm grateful, I was born in a family with full of love (so tak ada la isu kekurangan kasih sayang macam abah).

As a mother, I take this as a lesson, not to take this for granted towards my child. Give love, and you'll be loved..that's how it should be.

Along am sorry Abah. I know it must be conflicting in and out his soul. Dan mulutku ini juga harus kujaga..agar nanti jangan sampai Abah pula yang kata anaknya tak pandai jaga perasaan bapaknya. :(

To Tok Ami who is now lying on the bed, I pray day and night, agar diringankan kesakitannya. But Allah knows best. Tawakkal dan Redha, itu yang sebaiknya. Wallahua'lam.

*update: My beloved grandmother passed away on 7th of Feb...semoga rohnya ditempatkan dikalangan orang yang beriman...

Happy New Year

2011-01-03T15:55:00.002+08:00

2011 sudah datang ;) and how's about your last year's resolution? I didn't even remember about my last year's resolution or..didn't I have one? *shame on me*

So, nothing much I target for this new year..I just hope for a healthy, balanced life. That's the most important to bring out happiness in life.

I already have few plans in mind this year, but let it left unspoken, kalau jadi baru boleh cerita ;)

May this year bring a lot of happiness and luck to you out there.

in the mood of updating

2010-09-21T16:24:00.002+08:00

It's been months! Pemaleh betul nak update eheh. I've been busy for nothing lately..Ntah apa yang busy pun tak tahu..tapi bila nak update je..konon2 tak sempat :P

Too many things happened this few months..but again, i'm just too lazy to remember all that. All i know:

My darling daughter has grown up so fast (how I wish it happens not too fast)
We are blessed with 2 boys (it's our sisters' son)

What else? To be updated soon.

Pathetic post, isn't it?

cuteness

2010-05-03T10:38:00.003+08:00

Fact 1:

My mother's Name: Katijah binti Md Said [read: nek jah]
My only nephew at this moment: Aqeef Abbasy [read: adik Aqeef]

Fact 2:

Lagu standard yang budak kecik will be taught, then akan suka nyanyi repetitously:

Bapa ku pulang dari kota
Bapaku belikan kereta
Kereta kecil warna merah
Boleh ku bawa ke sekolah
Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon
Kereta kecilku berbunyi
Marilah adik mari naik
Boleh kubawa kerumah nenek

Fact 3:

Lagu standard yang dah modified and sang by Qaisara:

Bapa ku pulang dari kotak
Bapaku belikan kereta
Kereta kecil warna merah
Boleh ku bawa ke sekolah
Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon Pon
Kereta kecilku berbunyi
Marilah adik Aqeef mari naik
Boleh kubawa kerumah Nek Jah

I soo love the newly modified lyrics, that i almost forgot the original one!

Qaisara is now playschooling

2010-01-07T11:08:00.010+08:00

I'm proud of you darling!

Thank god that I still remember the login password to blog. Sangat lama tidak belog, aite?

To the topic: Today is officially the 4th day since Qaisara enrolled to her playschool nearby her nursery. I'm kinda happy + sebak pun ada juge..anak ku sudah ke sekolah!

She's only 3 this year, to be exact this April. People might ask, why send her too early?

i) kesian dia, kecik lagi

ii) nanti dia jemu, lama sangat dekat tadika

And my answer would be:

i) she has been sent to nursery since she was 3 months old. Independency is not an issue. Lagipun daripada duduk main [read: bergaduh, berebut barang] dekat nursery, it's better to expose her new social skills and also new friends..

ii) Not sure if she'll get bored later on, one thing for sure she won't learn the same thing every year...plus she's only enrolled to playschool, and i choose montessori approach so that it won't stress on academics too much at her age...kalau nak kira jemu, kita kat primary school tu 6 tahun dekat sekolah yang sama jugak...ok je.

She seems enjoying her moment at school, still adapting though..I'm always hope and pray that she'll cope with her new environment fast and of course enjoying the class the whole year. AMIN.

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri kepada semua..Maaf Zahir dan Batin.

Dearly Deported

2009-08-06T14:49:00.008+08:00

I was listening to MIX FM this morning on the way to the office, and got the chance to listen to the 2nd Winner for Dearly Deported Segment.

Let me brief what is Dearly Deported to those who doesn't listen to MIXfm:

It's actually a program to reunite long lost loved ones: siblings, friends (not sure if bf/gf counts). They are flying your loved one to Kuala Lumpur and take them straight to the MIX fm studio. They put the overseas relative in one studio and the Malaysian-based relative in an adjoining studio. They will be able to see each other, but won’t be able to talk to each other.

And then the Malaysian-based relative will have to answer 3 questions about their overseas relative:

· Get ONE right – they spend 10 minutes together;
· Get TWO right – they get 1 hour together;
· Get all THREE right – they are reunited for 2 weeks!

But if he or she gets none of the questions right – they will instantly deport the loved one. No hugs, not even a chance to say hello... she/he will be taken straight back to the airport and put them on a flight back home.

So this morning, It's Johnny and her never- met- sister turn. It’s not just long lost loved relatives - but a brother and sister who didn’t even know that each other existed till one month ago...Johnny’s parents never mentioned that he had a baby sister… who was three days old when she was given away to a British soldier and returned to England with her. This was 45 years ago. In July, Susan came down to Malaysia for work, and put up an advertisement looking for her Malaysian family. They have been in touch since via Skype, but they’ve never met each other. If I were in his shoes, hmmm x boleh bayangkan mcm mana...

Rules of the game: he (and his family) will only get the chance to hug, talk, etc with Susan only if he is able to answer these 3 questions:

Q1: How many times did Susan get engaged b4 getting married to her husband?
(How was he supposed to know? X pernah jumpa for 45 yrs, ntah2 bila kahwin pun dia x tahu..)

I was waiting nervously for his answer. And of course he failed to answer the question correctly. (Oh my, it means he (they) can't spend 2 weeks with her sis. The longest possible is only 1 hour).

Q2: Where does Susan's adopted mother lives? (He got it right, and yeay he won 10 minutes to spend with her sister)

Q3: Susan is a teacher. What subject does she teaches?
( I felt like crying when i didn't hear any answer from Johnny...not sure of the answer, i guessed. Eventually he answered)

I can't help myself for not crying at that moment, because i heard Johnny cried. (He must be blaming himself for not answering the questions well. The whole family was in the conty, waiting to hug their sister/daughter..what if the 3rd Qs is wrongly answered? 10 menet je lah dapat berpeluk bagai and then, goodbye..sedih2..

Luckily the 3rd question was correct. Means they can spend 1 hour together, before Susan flying back to Sweden. From the radio i could hear they were hugging and crying..sedih sedih. Surprisingly, the DJ announced that they can spend not 1 hour, but another 30 hrs, due to the flight unavailability to Sweden..lucky girl :)

The DJs were also asking the father on how he felt for this...He was quite disappointed for not getting the chance to spend 2 weeks with her daugter, as he planned to bring her daughter to Penang, their hometown and he hope they will do that other time sooner or later.

What a fantastic community service you guys have MIXfm :)

If you wish to meet any of your long losted relatives overseas, the registration is still open until tomorrow..go find it out @ mix.fm...

p/s: I feel old listening to MIXfm, anyhow i feel too young listening to HITZfm :P

Month of June

2009-06-08T10:57:00.003+08:00

Event Standard di Malaysia on the month of June:

-Cuti sekolah yang agak panjang..like 2 weeks kot
-Kenduri kahwin yang sangat banyak..di mana2 (asalkan di Malaysia) memandangkan ramai yang mengambil kesempatan berkenduri di musim cuti sekolah..senang saudara mara nak datang..anak2 semua nya bercuti..so boleh la lama sikit duduk dekat kampung ;)

So ramaila pasangan yang celebrate their wedding anniversary on June. Masa blog-hopping pun, antara topics yg di update by most of fellow-bloggers:

Anniversary

Whatever it is..i believe everybody, including me and my hubby have our own way to celebrate this day…walaupun takla sehappennig kak siti ;)

My 1st anniversary 02062007:

Dapat spa treat: Polish balik badan yang berkerak akibat sapuan berbagai2 jamu masa pantang bersalinkan our first daughter

My 2nd anniversary 02062008:

Celebrate sorang2..husband outstation

My 3rd anniversary 02062009:

Walaupun our anniversary tak sehebat yang lain, saya masih bersyukur kerana masih berpeluang menyambut our wedding anniversary.

Happy wedding anniversary to those celebrating it..Semoga berkekalan ke akhir hayat.

p/s: Ini adalah sebenarnya entry emo..kerana mengenangkan saya dah dua tahun tak dapat hadiah anniversary :(

The Misinterpretation

2009-06-03T09:47:00.003+08:00

#1

Qaisara: Mama, sakit perut. Sapu Yoyicaplimau.
Mama: Kenapa dia sakit perut? Nak b**ak ke lapar?
Qaisara: Saya lapar
Mama: Lapar ke? Jom makan jom
Qaisara: Tak nak makan..dah kenyang
Mama: ??

#2

Qaisara: Shhh mama koyet mama koyet [read: mama quiet].
Mama: Baby nak tido ke?
Qaisara: Taklah, baby ngantuk kot..
Mama: errkk ??

Qaisara..Qaisara.. ^_^

Her Vocabs....

2009-05-08T10:21:00.007+08:00

...are growing and expanding! I am proud that Qaisara's pronounciation of every single word she says is clear. Tak main la pelat2 hehe...It is just that sometimes she uses the words wrongly...tak tahu makna kot...hehe..anyhow she is mastering quite a lot of words each day.

-She is now pronouncing her name as Kasagha [read: Qaisara], better than Kai Kaya she pronounced earlier, and started calling her teacher as Ko As [read: Cikgu As] also, better than before (dulu panggil As je). Show your respect lah baby, she is your teacher, not your friend :)

I always keep asking her some common question repetetively [which she doesn't really like to answer the same questions again and again. When you started to ask 1 question only, she will answer the question PLUS the other question you plan to ask one after another...

Q: What is your name?
A: Kasagha...babah Kaiyii..mama Nowii..atuk TokKomat..atuk TokAcol..Nenek Jah...TokMama Enon..PakLam Ecam...Babah work sisi mama work sabajaya..

Sometimes, she even answered her nenek's name as nenek nenek si bongkok tiga! I guess she get bored with the same question asked everyday ;) -Kadang2 siap provoke tanya lain jawab lain..grrrrr

I am also proud that she can now sing the song i used to sing during my childhood: 'Nenek nenek si bongkok tiga'

Nenek nenek si bokok tigaaa [read: Nenek nenek di bongkok tiga]
siam mangatuk malam ba-jaga [read: Siang mengantuk malam berjaga]
mecari cucu namanamana [read: Mencari cucu dimana ada]
neneku kawin dengan anak baja [read: Nenek ku kahwin dengan anak Raja]
cucu cucu tabole lari [read: Cucu cucu tak boleh lari]
nene tua banyak sati [read: Nenek tua banyak sakti]
sakaram nenek na cari gati [read: sekarang nenek nak cari ganti]
sapa yam kena dia yam jadi [read: Siapa yang kena dia yang jadi]

FYI, I am the one to fetch her from the nursery on my way back home. We normally will see series of traffic light along the way back and guess what:

Lampu merah: Mama, ssssssstop. Tu tengok tu ssstop.
Lampu hijau: Haaa, boleh jalan mama..boleh jalan dah.

I know my daughter is smart ;) It must be her babah telling her the traffic light lesson (good job, honey!) And owh, she will also ask me to stop when the light is yellow. Bagus2..boleh ambil driving license cepat mcm ni :D

Last night she got scolded by me after messing up all her toys at our living hall. Sambil membebel cleaning all the mess, i could see her walking slowly with sulky face to our 2nd room. I tiptoed and started peeping what was she doing. She climbed the bed, and sit still at the very corner of the bed. The room was dark, with no light switched on.

I asked her, Sara buat apa tu? Gelap lah...She replied with a very sad face...Saya manangis [read: saya menangis] aaaa? menangis? merajuk kot..sebab x de air mata pun.Iye saya yakin dia nak bgtau yang dia tgh merajuk...alahai..cutenya..takpe cuba lagi anakku...x power lagi lah vocab anakku :) Anyway, that was the first time she surrendered when i scolded her. Wonderful. Mama puas hati. Hehehehe. Mama menang. Kalau tak, selalunya the conversation will be this bad:

Mama: Qaisaraaaa..kenapa sepah2? Put this thing back to the room. Now!
Qaisara: [Muka toya, buat2 tuli...]tengok tv...or bwk keluar mainan lain pulak
Mama: Ya Allah, Qaisara..Pleaseeeee...Don't do this! Naughty lah u.
Qaisara: Noooooooo. Mama notiiii. Eeiiii

And i'll be the mangsa dera. Terasa didera kerana terpaksa mengemas mainan dan juga dibabab anak sendiri. [mommies out there, is there any way to teach her to manage herself better?]

Being a mother is....wonderful :)

Late Entry

2009-05-07T02:33:00.004+08:00

2009-04-29T07:47:00.005+08:00

Krispy Kreme sudah sampai Malaysia....to be exact, it's opening in Berjaya Times Square, KL. If it's not the buntings and ads, I won't know that we don't have really to travel so far to get the doughnuts now! Doughnuts Doughnuts I go nuts!!!!

p/s: Anybody generous enough to get me a box of these? Pleaseeee...Times Square is so far away from my workplace..if not confirm dah terbang ke sanaaaaa di waktu lunch ;)

Bandung Shopping Spree

2009-04-20T12:08:00.009+08:00

I know I know, it's kinda basi..tapi it's always better late than never to archive all this :)

Me and my keluarga nukleus (me, hubby and Qaisara) telah menjebakkan diri dalam percutian yg 80% dpd main activities nya ialah SHOPPING....uuhhh ahhhh what a therapy ;) Turut terjebak dalam percutian ini adalah 4 other families (Aisyah and family, Azury and family, Jun and Juri , Safurah and family)+ 2 geng solo (Chot and Jai) ...all were my schoolmates and my regular geng jalan2.

4 days full of shopping activities were seriously.....HEAVEN!!! You could get good things with a very good price, tell you. Don't dare to go there without Rupiah [read: a lot of Rupiahs] or else you will suffer. **Evil grin**

Well guys, I won't tell much about the whole trip as it is well-explained in Jun's Blog. My concern here is more on sharing few experiences and some shopping tips [for my reference jugak later, mana tahu nak pergi lagi uhuhuhu]

First thing first, get your RM changed to Rupiah as much as you can..because it was not easy to find Money Changer in Bandung..one more money changer was not like ours in MY...you've got to queue macam dekat bank...ambil nombor tau! I forbid myself to use CC..bahaya..nnt confirm swipe lagi dan lagi ;) Mahu tambah lagi satu tips..sediakan currency converter untuk senang nak calculate in RM. Buat dalam bentuk table ke..we were so lucky sebab Aisyah n husband dia dah prepare a table of converter..photostat ramai2 bagi sorang 1..so bila tengok je baju harga 49,000 Rp dah tau dah berapa RM by referring the converter.

Muka bertenaga sebelum shopping

The best part of shopping in Bandung started when you go to the FOS (a lot, and scattered all over the places). Look for labels (GAP, Zara, Ralph Lauren, AX, Burberry, Old Navy, Esprit, Guess, Tommy Hilfiger, Victoria Secret) and you will smile. Small price for the big labels. But then still depends on your luck though...kalau stok baru sampai, mmg best lah shopping..there will be a lot of choices then. FOS i love the most: Rumah Mode. it's actually a boutique outlet..very nice boutique with a nice deco and arrangement. Looks exclusive and ahem..Kris Dayanti pun shopping sini ok :)

Sangat cosy ok kat sini, anakku pun tergedik2 bergolek2 di sofa Rumah Mode

Well, you will find quite few places that locate the FOS:

1) Along Jln Riau
2) Along Jln Dago
3) Along Setiabudi (this is where Rumah Mode located)

For Jeans: Go to Toko Tiga (Levi's for RM 60 eheh). Have fun portraiting your pics with Superheroes at Cihampelas Walk too..budak2 sukalah...byk Superhero characters (tapi x jumpa lagi BEN10 yg menjadi kegilaan budak sekarang). Among all, i love the outlets in Jalan Dago (besides Rumah Mode in Jln Setiabudi)...found quite a lot of adorables clothes with irresisstable price for husband's AX shirts and also my daughter's gowns, shirts. Not much in Jln Riau, I grabbed nothing in outlets in Jln Riau...(x de la nothing, tapi less than 5 items i guess)

San Goku kah dibelakang kami? Tak sure heheh

One more must go place if you come to Bandung: Pasar Baru. An eight-stories building with textiles, embroidered telekung, kebaya in it. Ini pun semua org shopping bagai nak gila..berguni2 heheh. I didn't really shop sampai berguni2..since i'm not really into kebaya sulam bagai...my only intention was only to get few pieces of embroidered telekung (guys, telekung kat KL yang 200 ringgit tu boleh dapat kat sini around RM 50 je tau tak?). Then sangkut2 la jugak few other fabrics: sepasang chiffon, 2 metres japanese cotton and a pair of kebaya sulam with silk sarung..surprisingly, my other rombongan-mate borong habis, like 5-8 times than what i bought..gilak betul mcm nak berniaga pun ada...huhuhu. And..can u believe it, sebab dah tahap masuk dlm guni..orang kedai tu siap hantar guni to our minibus...gila betul org malaysia ni shopping.

Co-incidently we met a Malaysian (a tourist guide actually) and he gave us really good informations on what to buy in Pasar Baru. Do you know that we can get a very high quality fabric for the suit in Pasar Baru? Choose: Buy the fabric and get it tailored in 24 hrs there or just buy the material and let your fave tailor do it for you in Malaysia. Wal-lah. Quality kain sama macam kain kat Dubai ok :) All in all, if you appreciate the quality of fabrics (and pandai pilih) you will get what you want. High quality japanese cotton for only RM 8 (in Malaysia will be like RM 30-40 per meter) and chiffon for kurung priced RM 80 (in Malaysia around RM 300++) satisfied me enough. And oh, don't forget to bargain uolls! 1 thing to remember, Pasar Baru is closed quite early, around 6 PM. You've got to really keep on looking at your watch..maklumlah..8 tingkat to explore...nnt x habis round..nak tutup dah :P

Food is not a problem, because there was quite a lot of decent places to eat. Kg Daun was the restaurant i love most. Very cosy, and the food tasted good, too. Dapur Sangkuriang, Restoran Sederhana (vote this for yummiest Nasi Padang). But: I was really surprised to find out that people in Bandung served chicken with the head (errr x lalu makan ok!). Alpukat was among the must try menu when you were in Bandung but err, i also couldn't take it. Apsal org lain minum sedap aje eh?

Do you believe that we only spent half of the day for sight-seeing? Ngehehe..nafsu shopping mengatasi segala-galanya. We opted to visit only 2 must go places: Tangkuban Parahu and Ciater Hot Spring. Appreciating nature of earth...bau2 sulfur sikit then amik gamba...rendam kaki sikit2 dalam air panas sambil makan aiskrim then balik huhuhu..sambung shopping!

You can smell the sulphur from here..

Money spent: xxxx.xx
Money brought back to Malaysia xx.xx
The feeling looking at Luggage(s): PRICELESS ;)

p/s: Geng jenjalan, let's start saving for HK Disneyland next year!!!

Semoga rohnya dicucuri rahmat.

Morning Ramblings

2009-03-18T09:06:00.004+08:00

Hujan pulak this morning..office mandom aje..me pun a bit lambat today to the office (and terus memblog?uhh sangat tidak produktif)

1. My daughter digigit di nursery! I was surprised how this happened to her because she's kinda 'pembuli jalanraya' jugak. Found out, she fell and accidentally bumped into this lil girl (who happened to be her fave girl to bully long time ago). Being so mad sebab kena hempap dia pun gigit lah my daughter. [so quote of the day: Sudah jatuh ditimpa tangga, sudahlah sakit jatuh lps tu kena gigit lagi]. Luckily x berdarah. End of the story.

2. I'm still looking for a suitable cross-body bag, not small-size but big one: to keep few pcs of diapers, milk container n bottles, few pcs of toddler's cloth and not to be forgotten my long purse and handphone. Anyone? Tired of bringing my speedy 30..tak boleh sangkut kat bahu!

3. I can't wait for our planned family trip (sangat planned ok, we book the tix masa A*rAs*a promo 0 sen on Feb 2008! Nak tix murah punya pasal) this coming April. This must be fun (to the ladies at least) to get the chance to shop till we drop!

Later peeps, for more ramblings.....

Happy Birthday Abah

2009-02-23T12:56:00.006+08:00

Ever since my life began,I realized that "You're the man!"

I saw your wisdom, your courage too,

And I learned I could rely on you.

Your tolerant nature was really great,

Nevertheless, you'd not hesitate

To let me know when I'd been bad

It must have been hard, but that's being a dad.

You're strong and smart and filled with love

A gift to me from up above.

So here's a greeting from your biggest fan:

Happy Birthday Dad, "You're the man!"

A quick one

2009-02-10T22:53:00.004+08:00

Yup, a very quick one:

1. I've just started my new job@my new place. The feeling: Err ok lah at this moment..sukeeeee :)
2. I went to the office@myPreviousComp few days before i started my new job. The feeling: Sedih jugak rasanya bila jumpa my mates..sentimental siot.
3. I've completed my C*S** certification during my 5 days leave before i started the new job. The feeling: Wah lega betul menghabiskan exam Q*S yang menyeksakan ituuu.
4. I didn't really enjoy my 5 days leave before i started the new job because:

-my husband was away for 8 days (time ni la pulak nak outstation uhh)
-my daughter preferred to go to school, rather than staying with me at home..(ampeh tul, boleh ke lps mandi cari kasut and terus ke pintu..sambil berkata: mama culll [read: mama school])

5. I can't help myself laughing out loud when Qaisara spell out her new word : COCOT

-There are 2 different meaning of cocot: i) Biskut ii) Takut [apakah kaitannya? huhuhu tiada kot neh]

6. My husband's birthday fell on the day he returned home from outstation. Happy birthday, sayang!

Facts on item no 2: Saya berasa sangat keji kerana tidak berjumpa dan bersalam2 an dgn semua yang rapat dgn saya di ofis itu..bukan apa kerana saya takut ter emosi lebih..lalu mengeluarkan air mata. Farewell email pun not sent [keji betul, tapi saya rasa seperti poyo pula hendak menghantar email, almaklumlah saya memang pasti akan berkunjung ke ofis lama itu..paling tidak untuk mengajak kawan2 minum petang dan singgah sekejap di meja2 yang berkaitan untuk mendapatkan gosip terkini]

Ayat jimatnya: Saya masih berasa diri saya sangat dekat dengan mereka yang berada di ofisLama itu...baru kini saya sedar betapa saya sayang dengan orang2 di ofis itu. huhu

p/s: Anybody knows where to get eletronic anagramizer?

Life goes on.....

2009-01-28T11:40:00.006+08:00

It's very hard to decide but life must go on. For both personal and professional reasons, i choose to leave my CurrentCompany, and move on to TheNewCompany.

Serving my CurrentCompany (and having the coolest boss on earth) for almost 4 years is the most precious moment i will always remember. A lot of things learnt and being explored here which i'm pretty sure i won't get it anywhere else...and one thing i'll surely miss the most:

T.E.A.M.W.O.R.K

I wish J*R**N* all the best, hope you guys pray for me too (at my new place).

p/s: Gonna miss you guys! *sob sob*

She made my heart melt ;)

when she looks at me putting on make-up and says: mama cantiknyee

Yes, she really made my heart melt.

1430H - New Year with New Hope

2008-12-30T12:27:00.004+08:00

Sangat lama tidak update blog..and FINALLY it's updated!

Sangat bz for the last 2 weeks..ambik nafas pun x berapa nak boleh...but now dah free!! hehe boleh buat sesuka hati di ofis :)

We are now in 1430H..new year with new hope! I'm not going to declare any of my resolution here, maklumlah bukan senang nak mencapainya..heheh so better simpan dalam hati aje :P

Anyway, i'd like to congratulate my lil sis for getting 8a's in her PMR. (Good achievement to start your new year!)...and also one of my friend who's just got pregnant ( a new addition of your family this new year - insyaALLAH)

Me also have some something exciting to start this new year ( but can't revealed it now lah..later ok). All in all saya tidak sabar menempuh 1430H dengan sesuatu yang baru (dan menggembirakan gitu...)

Hehehe.....

Qaisara 19-month-old

2008-11-30T15:30:00.009+08:00

What's your toddler doing? At around 19 months, your toddler begins to understand when things don't conform to grownup ideas. She'll laugh at something that's obviously wrong — like calling a giraffe a zebra or calling a brother a sister. (She laughed seeing Pocoyo acted as Superpocoyo). She'll also notice when something isn't quite right, like an eye missing from her stuffed bear or a new stain on the carpet. (yup, she will alert me when her milk spilled 'mama, tupah (read: mama, tumpah)

Although you're probably still understanding less than half of what your toddler says, she's getting a handle on most of the words you use around her. She's also having a vocabulary spurt and putting together pairs of words, like "Me go" or "You put." ( plus: Babah, wetap [read: Babah, wake up], mama, cipat [read: mama, cepat], ish ish ucukkkk [read: ish ish busuk]

As for social development, go slow. Your toddler will get all the stimulation she needs from unstructured play, so steer clear of formal lessons, such as dance or music, until she's at least 3. Play dates give her a chance to play near other children, but don't expect her to truly interact just yet. (Her playdate so far is her favourite kakak Aqish-sampai termimpi2 okeh, suka sangat main ngan atis)

She's such a copycat now. Follow everything u do, anything u say. Staying one whole day in nursery, makes her bringing back quite a lot of new words and new 'behaviour' each day:

#1:

Qaisara: Mama, Mama
Me: No reply
Qaisara: Mama!
Me: No reply
Qaisara: Mama, woi mama! [read in a very high-pitch sound]
Me: Erk

And owh, she now has started to appreciate baby, pandai sayang baby (by trying to kiss, hug and play with the baby), eventhough she still refers herself as baby :)

But wait, this is not a hint that she'll be getting one at home to play with ;)

note: takziah to Aisyah, di atas pemergian ayahanda tersayang...semoga rohnya tenang di sana..

OoOoOoOoOoOoBAMA!

2008-11-06T10:51:00.002+08:00

You did it man!

She made me panic, again!

2008-10-24T10:29:00.004+08:00

Drama gila seyh. It happened yesterday. I was having quite a bad headache, tapi buat tak tau je...kalau dilayan lagila sakit. To shorten the story, my to-do-list after office hour that day was:

1) to pick up Qaisara from nursery
2) to fetch my husband at his office @ KLCC
3) to pick up cupcakes for our cousin's wedding in Keramat
4) to send the cupcakes to our cousin's house @ Taman Melati
5) to have dinner @ their house

So there we go. Hubby was fasting that day, and the moment i reached his office it was about time for iftar. Hubby requested to break his fast @ KLCC, nak makan dekat Manhattan Fish Market katanya..but i said 'kita makan kat rumah aunt Norlia je la, diorang dah masak dah pun...u beli roti dekat petrol pump je la dulu'

We stopped by and got some buns for him. Qaisara requested for her milk and i fed her as usual lah kan. 10 mins later, guess what? She vomitted her milk she drank and habis carseat depan...duhh.We stopped at other petrol station nearby, to clean up all the mess. Poor Sara kena pakai baju yang dia dah pakai during the day...sebab baju tido dah kotor (and we don't have spare shirt)

The journey continued, we reached Kak Chik's house to pick up the cupcakes. Qaisara looked ok..with her baju comot :P. She ate a few kuih raya, and drank some plain water. Half an hour later, off we went to Taman Melati to deliver the cupcakes. Being only about 10 mins in the car, she vomitted again! This time all kuihs and plain water came out...poor baby nangis lagi...plus seluar and tudung mamanya habis kena muntah. And oh, carseat belakang juge ya...

At Taman Melati she vomitted 3 more times, we decided to bring her to doctor. I called her caretaker to check what she ate, or did she fell or did anything happen today? She ate nasi lemak a bit today, the rest is as normal as the other day...hmmmm... was it nasi lemak?

At the clinic , 2 more times: before and after we met the doctor. Thank god x jumpa sesiapa yang dikenali...i was wearing purple-colour office wear with turqoise seluar jogging! Macam *n*o* ok. And final vomit of the day was after she drank plain water on the way back home. All those counted as 8 ? In 4 hours? Oh my....

We reached home at almost 12 AM. She was asleep by then. Lega gila bila dia minum susu twice throughout the night and x muntah lagi...thanks doc for the medicine..

Today she looks ok, hopefully she is ok. Please pray for her ya!

**can't imagine how the scenario would change if we were having our dinner at Manhattan Fish Market..masak mak nak oi

A ( not-so ) raya story

2008-10-14T19:45:00.011+08:00

How's your raya folks? We didn't really celebrate our raya because Qaisara had a measles on 2nd day of raya. Demmit.

She was having high-fever on and off a week before raya, when the red thingy popped out, baru la kitorg tahu what makes her so cranky and uncomfy...

During her fever

Malam raya: still in the mood for fireworks

Raya Day 1: The only decent pic of her, for the rest asyik nangis aje

The day Measles popped out

Her atok(s) and nenek(s) put sooo many effort to ensure their only granddaughter recover fast:

1) To give her coconut drink: no red spot hidden inside the body, all must out!
2) To not expose her to rain, this will lead to something worse (as they said lah)
3) No chicken, beef, seafood
4) No jalan raya
5) No etc

Unfortunately, babah couldn't stand the rule no 4. And the results, we keep kena marah everytime we go raya. Tension tul lah. Tension betul dgn babah. Sit still, no one shout at us. The end. Later still we can go raya...Grrrrrrr

On the 5th of raya...no more reddish body over Qaisara...so kira dah baiklah. Her nenek melaka was so kind-hearted that she prepared a green-colour paste to be applied to her body..Utk buang miang and sejukkan badan yang gatal, katanya.

The Lil Hulk Hogan

The Lil Hulk Hogan(closed-up)

Alhamdulillah, she is much much ok now. I guess red spot semua dah keluar...hopefully x kene lagi lps ni...

Sudah ok!

I am happy now..my healthy baby is back!

P.S I Love (always) You

2008-10-13T22:38:00.002+08:00

Gara-Gara menengok Cerita itu, saya telah menjadi jiwang sekejap...

Kenapa perlu ikut cakap orang...

2008-09-23T14:39:00.002+08:00

.....bila kita mampu buat decision sendiri?

Hrmmpphhh....

and lots more that i can't really remember..byk vocab jugak dah boleh sebut...her caretaker did inform me, 'dia ni cakap clear, x pelat...' wah cepatla bercakap anak mama ni...senang mama nak tau sara nak apa...

I'm grateful to the One, as now her airways is not as sensitive as previous time. Her immunity gets stronger each and every day...no more nebulising session, yeay!

Am happy and glad to see her growing up in front of me. I bet, pejam celik pejam celik, kompom dah turn to anak dara anak aku niii..

My Bestest Friend is pregnant!

2008-09-11T13:00:00.004+08:00

......and i was like among the last to know? Ampeh tul..when I started being kepochi about that...people will say things like: weh lama dah, la ko x tau lagi? / aku rasa dia pregnant lagi awal dpd h*r**a* duh. pot lah

BTW folks: i'd like to spread the invitation to Hi-Fivers BukaPuasa@Sabak Seafood & BBQ this 21st of Sept (Sunday). Pls pls come over so that we can gossip (macam biasala kan..) and update each other! Bring together your hubby, wifey, kiddos, bf, gf, fiance ok!

Congratulations Lenot! Happy for You!!!

How's your first day?

2008-09-02T16:20:00.003+08:00

Assalamualaikum and Good Day folks,

First and foremost, Ahlan Wasahlan Ya Ramadhan..telah tiba juga bulan yang ditunggu2 umat Islam sedunia...semoga kita masing-masing memanfaatkan kesempatan yang ada ini, mengumpul pahala sebanyak yang boleh.

I found this upon my reading:

Do'a malaikat Jibril menjelang Ramadhan

"Ya Allah tolong abaikan puasa ummat Muhammad, apabila sebelum memasuki bulan Ramadhan dia tidak melakukan hal-hal yang berikut:

* Tidak memohon maaf terlebih dahulu kepada kedua orang tuanya (jika masih ada);
* Tidak berma'afan terlebih dahulu antara suami isteri;
* Tidak bermaafan terlebih dahulu dengan orang-orang sekitarnya.

Maka Rasulullah pun mengatakan Amiin sebanyak 3 kali. Dapatkah kita bayangkan, yang berdo'a adalah Malaikat dan yang meng-amiinkan adalah Rasullullah dan para sahabat, dan dilakukan pada hari Jumaat.

So saya ingin memohon ampun dan maaf, seandainya ada salah dan silap dan semoga kita sama2 mendapat kelebihan di bulan yang berkat ini...

Your Kisses Are Medium-Hot

Your kisses are definitely sexy, but you're not about to make anyone gasp for air.

You take it slow and steady... and you ramp things up when you get the right signals.

Your kissing style is adaptable and adept. And people who kiss you love it!

How Hot Are Your Kisses?

Kau begitu sempurna
Di mataku kau begitu indah
Kau membuat diriku akan selalu memujamu

Di setiap langkahku ku kan
selalu memikirkan dirimu
Tak bisa ku bayangkan
Hidupku tanpa cintamu

Janganlah kau tinggalkan diriku
tak kan mampu menghadapi semua
Hanya bersamamu ku akan bisa

Kau adalah darahku
Kau adalah jantungku
Kau adalah hidup ku lengkapi diriku oh sayang engkau begitu sempurna
Sempurna

Kau genggam tanganku saat diriku lemah dan terjatuh kau bisikkan dan hapus semua sesalku

Janganlah kau tinggalkan diriku
tak kan mampu menghadapi semua
Hanya bersamamu ku akan bisa

Kau adalah darahku
Kau adalah jantungku
Kau adalah hidup ku lengkapi diriku oh sayang engkau begitu sempurna .. sempurna

Sayangku engkau begitu sempurna.. sempurna.. sempurna..

Happy our 2nd Wedding Anniversary Sayang!

Life is so hard when he is away

2008-06-03T11:36:00.003+08:00

Hubby is away for 2 weeks, antara aktiviti outstationnya yang paling lama since we have Qaisara..if it's 2 days or 1 week, biasala tuu but this time 2 weeks is too 'pahit utk ditelan' especially for Qaisara..

Ni baru 2 hari, Qaisara dah start buat perangai dah..She gets cranky easily, and asyik nak kepit je..pagi tadi kat nursery she cried when i left her to work..sian sangat..selalu siap lambai2..ni nangis pulak :(

Another 1 week plus to go..can't wait! Sian gile tgk Qaisara(and kesian pada mamanya juge)

Harizah's Bachelorette Party

2008-05-26T10:22:00.005+08:00

We had so much fun @ The Zon All Suites Residences on the Park last Saturday....it was actually a normal outing..but with the companion of the best-est friends among all..it turned out to be the most happening get together event..(and of course no boys ok, HEAVENNNN)

This activity was started on 2005, celebrating Aisyah's day...we did melalak 1 mlm kat karaoke, and got the chance to accompany her lingerie(s) shopping. Kelaka la time tu sbb most of us tak kawen lagi...Then, continue pulak with my party mid of 2006, held somewhere @ Sg Apa ntah nama dia (Miah, help dah lupeee) Best giler enjoying our BBQ sambil mandi2 sungai and having hair spa...besttt, mmg best..especially bila part knowledge sharing tu. I still remember, Faryna nye lamb sangat sedapp..dgn jagung bakar Aisyah lagi..*droool* And the most interesting part was we were freely to gossip and gossip without the presence of our boipren/hubby/fiance. Tapi cuak siot since Aisyah was pregnant that time, and siap boleh cramp masa mandi sungai huuu thank god, nothing happened.

Bachelorette (episode: lenot) was antara yang sadis..timing cam ok..tp last2 sikit je join..(yang tak tahan bride-to-be siap balik awal tu sbb kena pergi hospital ON CALL. Last2 tinggal kitorg je mandi pantai huuuuu. Resulting hotel room@PD tu jadi cam kosong je..still, we enjoyed ourself even though without the bride to be hehehehe

So for Harizah's one..a very memorable picnic@KLCC park, followed by body massage, foot spa, hair spa..pergh rasa macam princess. Stripper pon ade...Qaisara, Aqish and Dania volunteered themselves to replace the absent stripper (Nafis yang demam). Adala show sikit2 dlm bath tub *winks* Lupa lagi..we (read: aisyah n miah) did karaoke all night long. Enjoy siot!

All of all, yang paling best is when we can gather, and share all stories, nasihat2..and yang paling best flash back cerita zaman sekolah!

So who's party next eh?

Feeling Happy

2008-05-23T17:19:00.002+08:00

Huehuehuehue..feeling happy today:

Happy because Huggies Dry Diapers sold@30.99 for L(72)~~Happy because i reached office soo early ~~Happy because my baby is recovering from her bronchitis~~Happy because i know i can move to our own house by next month~~Happy to sign an agreement that makes my eyes glow n glow~~Happy because we'll be having a get-together picnic tomorrow~~

ooh i'm just HAPPY!

Yiihaaaaaaa!!

2008-05-08T11:55:00.006+08:00

-sangat manja, especially with me

-always takes the astro remote control and pretends to change the channel we're watching ( selalu mmg tukar terus channel, bukan berlakon je)
-loves watching tv (cartoon especially)
-will kiss me (or anybody) when i (anybody) say sayang (mama/doll/anybody)
-will cium tangan if you say salam
-will dance when listening to the songs
-loves pocoyo and thomas n friends so much
-will clap her hands when she is happy
-loves to sengih2, showing off her teeth
-her hair is getting curlier, like her babah of course
-will raise her hand to catch your attention (nak suruh dukungla tuu)
-will kerut muka when you say no
-loves her shape-sorter
-don't really like girlie toys but prefer trucks, car, mechanical type of toys
-will pass whatever in her hand when i (we) say can i (we) have it please
-good at making friends (but it takes time)
-loves swimming pool and playground
-loves to scream

Yiha 2~We've gotten our house key!

Can't wait to move in! We are now busy searching things for our house (this is so tough sbb budget is very ciput, and time-constraint reason too). Lucky me to have sisters involved in Interior Design and Architecture area, throwing tons of design ideas (but that doesn't help much, again budget cipuuut)

one of our interior advisor, with her choice of tap and sink

if you have any useful tips/info, pls pls pls share with me ok!

p/s: i am proud to be your daughter!

Updated!

2008-04-16T19:22:00.017+08:00

So many things to update, so many things to catch up! Sorry peeps for not writing quite a long time..tak ada masa laa..Ok, mana mahu mula ye?

1) Jalan2 Kuantan

Kuantan Trip was organized by my hubby’s colleague. It’s kinda get-to-know-each-other-more event, basically our family and his other 2 friend’s family. Dunno what is so best about Kuantan that makes them deciding this place to go. Very the non-cuti2 Malaysia...but hey, ok la jugak sebenarnya Kuantan ni...ada nice beach (read=Swiss Garden Resort n Spa@Pantai Balok Beach), yummy (and damn cheap) seafood and ada Kuantan Parade n Berjaya Megamall hehe...

Serious sedap, murah lagi

Disini la...Pak Su@ Kg Bahagia Beserah

......the most important thing is: it's only me, hubby and Qaisara in a hotel room!

Only 3 of us, yeay!

This is our very2 first time 3 gether..selalunya mesti with Qaisara's Atuk/Nenek/Auntie's companion.Qaisara was really enjoying herself at the beach for the first time! So excited she was, but unfortunately x boleh mandi pool/beach sebab selesema.

Happy Sandy Time!

2.Phuket Trip

@ Phuket Airport

A week after Jalan2 Kuantan, kitorg pegi pulak ke Phuket..pity little Qaisara kena tinggal. Personally i think Phuket is not suitable for baby at the age of Qaisara bcoz:

1) The weather is hot (me sunburn, siap mengelupas2 kulit)

2) Baby still can't enjoy Thai Massage (which we really feeeeell it!)

3) I don't think baby can stay at the beach from the sun rise, until almost 12 PM (which we really can)

4) Tak romantikla bawak Qaisara..(give us some sweet time together eh baby)

Can you spot me? Hehehe cari la kalau terrer, confirm x jumpa

BTW, we went to Phuket by group, 7 of us altogether...too bad we didn't bring our camera, camera phone aje yang ada...Harizah Chot Aisyah ada la gamba banyak kot.

3) Qaisara’s First Year

She turned 1 on 8th of April. She ate a lot sampai tergolek2 penat on that day, claimed the caretaker@the nursery. My baby..tapi sekarang semakin manja..tak boleh berenggang langsung dengan her babah and mama. Why eh? Bukan dah besar lagi 'macho' ke?

A week before her birthday was really a drama..Mula2 fever, and then bronchiolitis again: being the worst ever in her 1st year of life. Need to be nebulised every 3 hours resulting her mama EL lagi for 2 days. Thank god Qaisara's paeds was really helpful (siap bagi nebulizer machine lagi, so Qaisara doesn't need to be admitted) Alhamdulillah after 1 week, she recovered.

Her first birthday bash was held at her nursery. It was a simple celebration only, since Qaisara pun tak reti appreciate lagi the celebration. Tapi mama and babah telah berjaya membuat goodie bag Qaisara with her favourite cartoon on it. Sangat gigih melipat sampai pukul 2 pagi ok..

With her POCOYO oh so favourite cartoon in front

..........and her face at the back

Quoting my mum's say: "Budak2 biasanya suka makan ayam' I decided to cook chicken rice as main dish for the day..plus cocktail jelly as dessert, and of course ada birthday cake lah. (Itu sahaja yang sempat dimasak ye kawan2..nnt thn depan tambah menu) Speaking of birthday cake, it was indeed a FRUSTRATION! Upon recommendation, we ordered a 3D mickey mouse choc cake @ this one particular pembuat cake (not to name who) and started berangan: waaa misti comey nye 3D cake tu...then, it actually turned out this version of 3D:

3D kebenda nya nih..nasib sedap

Cake cutting with mama n babah

Lupa nak cerita, Qaisara was the one who suppose to be the happiest on her day, but she turned to be the crankiest girl! Reason: dah mengantuk, nak tido. Qaisara...Qaisara.. ^..^

Dah tido...ngantuk rupanya

Anyway, thanks to Mar and As for preparing everything for the party. Many thanks too for all the presents ya!

Babes@ Taska Nur Kasih

more pics will be uploaded @ my flickr

Happy 1 year old Qaisara

2008-04-08T12:08:00.006+08:00

You are as precious as a flower and as gorgeous as a rose

You have been specially made to the very tip of your nose
You are as sweet as honey; such an innocent young child
You are brighter than any star in the sky every time you smile

happy birthday, my sweet darling!

I missed the opportunity twice, all because tanggungjawab kepada negara. Kena duty la beb. Hopefully next election, i will get the chance to vote..nak merasa jugak feel mengundi, tak pernah mengundi lagi seumur hidup (mengundi kat uni dulu adalah)

Most of people who surround me was like, really celebrating the results of our General Election. Hubby and in-laws stayed up until 4AM waiting for the results (sorryla wa nak tunggu, dah penat standby kat spr siangnya tuu). I wake up in the morning with a very big surprise: witnessing 5 states now being taken by the opponents..yeah indeed a big surprise (kudos!)

I don't want to comment much on this, because i don't really care that much..i just wish:

1) Free toll
2) 1.92 per litre of fuel, and no other increasing figure on the metre!
3) A totally free education and medication

To you who have power now, please please please prove it to us that you guys can do it and help us. And lastly, to you guys who ' kalau potong jari gerenti darah kaler biru':

This is not the time for emotions. We must regroup and not lash out at anyone. Chaiyo!

hmmmmm....

2008-02-24T20:45:00.006+08:00

Suddenly this came across my mind. What makes you blog? Does blogging serves your purpose: a digital diary maybe, or some sort like a scrap book that you can check (the archive i mean) what you've jotted in the past time?

Well for me it depends on the owner itself. Anyway, it's your blog: so suka hatila nak buat apa pun kan? I blog for fun, (sebab tu selalu x update heee). Some people blog for business (marketing strategies), some people blog to share their opinion n to voice out their concerns, to share with public what their life are like, what they do everyday bla bla..some blogs give good tips on cooking, babycare, grooming, health-concious, politics and so on

Just now i browsed one regular blog i visited, and i can smell 'a war' there. Hmmm..should i say perang mulut or somethin? When readers/visitors comment something that may hurt the bloggers, start la berbalas2 comment which bila baca merah jugela telinga and (or) muka...

Well, face the music..you open your blog to public and expect everybody to compliment, to say oh i agree with you, or to say what a good writing you have done! Of course that won't happen. Sebab ramai manusia dimuka bumi jenis yang hasad dengki n asyik x puas hati je tgk org lain bergembira..biasala tu kan..

Sebab tu ada ramai jugak blogger yang restrict the access only to invited readers aje..so boleh la dia control the readers. Hmmm comment pun boleh tapis dulu sebelum being viewed inside the blog. That sounds more practical, aite? So bloggers yang open the blog to public? Why should you be so offensive when it comes to things like this? it's the risk, and of course you have way to settle it. Restrict aje access..Biar padan muka org yg comment jahat2 tu x dpt baca lg heee. Sometimes i feel sympathy for them, but actually it's you to decide how it should be managed.

Morale of the story, selamba badak aje la...klu nk ramai org baca (and comment) your blog, open it to public, or else restrict aje access.

note: saya menghabiskan masa standby di satu tempat and have to stay here till 12am, national interest punya reason la konon..tu yg merapu ni..bosan! me want to go home!!!!!

Qaisara turns 10 months old on 8th of Feb, a day after her Babah's birthday. Am very happy to see her progressing well, and can't wait to feel 'oh penat nya mengejar anak berlari'

Anyway, Qaisara's Tok Jah (Tok mama's sister) bought her a very nice scarf, for her to wear..looks so decent when she wears it, tapi sesekali macam anak indon pun ada jugak heee.

Before

After

Semoga Qaisara menjadi anak yang solehah..Amin

Of health and beauty:

Achievement:

What has not been achieved:

What to achieve:

-To gain weight
-Facial treatment-go away acne!
-To get rid of the stretch mark.

Wah banyak nye. Mampukah? Good luck to me

--12 Muharam 1429

Maal Hijrah 1429

2008-01-09T12:07:00.000+08:00

MUHARAM adalah bulan pertama dalam tahun Islam (Hijrah). Sebelum Rasulullah berhijrah dari Makkah ke Yathrib, kiraan bulan dibuat mengikut tahun Masihi. Hijrah Rasulullah memberi kesan besar kepada Islam sama ada dari sudut dakwah Rasulullah, ukhuwwah dan syiar Islam itu sendiri.

Pada asasnya, Muharam membawa maksud 'diharamkan' atau 'dipantang', iaitu Allah SWT melarang melakukan peperangan atau pertumpahan darah. Namun demikian larangan ini ditamatkan setelah pembukaan Makkah (Al Baqarah: 91). Sejak pemansuhan itu, umat Islam boleh melaksanakan tugas dan ibadat harian tanpa terikat lagi dengan larangan berkenaan.

Peristiwa-peristiwa penting di bulan Muharam:

1 Muharam - Khalifah Umar Al-Khattab mula membuat penetapan kiraan bulan dalam Hijrah.
10 Muharam - Dinamakan juga hari 'Asyura'. Pada hari itu banyak terjadi peristiwa penting yang mencerminkan kegemilangan bagi perjuangan yang gigih dan tabah bagi menegakkan keadilah dan kebenaran:

Nabi Adam bertaubat kepada Allah.
Nabi Idris diangkat oleh Allah ke langit.
Nabi Nuh diselamatkan Allah keluar dari perahunya sesudah bumi ditenggelamkan selama enam bulan.
Nabi Ibrahim diselamatkan Allah dari pembakaran Raja Namrud.
Allah menurunkan kitab Taurat kepada Nabi Musa.
Nabi Yusuf dibebaskan dari penjara.
Penglihatan Nabi Yaakob yang kabur dipulihkkan Allah.
Nabi Ayub dipulihkan Allah dari penyakit kulit yang dideritainya.
Nabi Yunus selamat keluar dari perut ikan paus setelah berada di dalamnya selama 40 hari 40 malam.
Laut Merah terbelah dua untuk menyelamatkan Nabi Musa dan pengikutnya dari tentera Firaun.
Kesalahan Nabi Daud diampuni Allah.
Nabi Sulaiman dikurniakan Allah kerajaan yang besar.
Hari pertama Allah menciptakan alam.
Hari Pertama Allah menurunkan rahmat.
Hari pertama Allah menurunkan hujan.
Allah menjadikan 'Arasy.
Allah menjadikan Luh Mahfuz.
Allah menjadikan alam.
Allah menjadikan Malaikat Jibril.
Nabi Isa diangkat ke langit.

Marilah berdoa dihujung 1428H:

Doa Akhir Tahun dibaca 3 kali pada akhir waktu Asar atau sebelum masuk waktu Maghrib pada akhir bulan Zulhijjah. Sesiapa yang membaca doa ini, Syaitan berkata:

"Kesusahan bagiku dan sia-sia lah pekerjaanku menggoda anak Adam pada setahun ini dan Allah binasakan aku satu saat jua. Dengan sebab membaca doa ini, Allah ampunkan dosanya setahun"

Tidak lupa juga berdoa meraikan kedatangan 1429H:

Doa Awal Tahun dibaca 3 kali selepas maghrib pada malam satu Muharram. Sesiapa yang membaca doa ini, Syaitan berkata:

"Telah amanlah anak Adam ini daripada godaan pada tahun ini kerana Allah telah mewakilkan dua Malaikat memeliharanya daripada fitnah Syaitan"

SEMOGA TAHUN BARU MEMBERI LEBIH KEBERKATAN KEPADA KITA, AMIN

2007-12-27T12:03:00.000+08:00

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!

It's Friday

2007-12-07T10:46:00.001+08:00

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!

A short post

2007-11-26T11:11:00.000+08:00

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

2007-11-14T12:01:00.000+08:00

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

2007-11-12T10:42:00.001+08:00

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

2007-10-26T11:31:00.000+08:00

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!!!

2007-10-26T11:18:00.000+08:00

~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!

Not Talking

2007-09-27T15:27:00.000+08:00

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

BukaPuasa@Rahsia

2007-09-24T10:22:00.000+08:00

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?

2007-09-21T15:11:00.000+08:00

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

2007-09-14T13:54:00.000+08:00

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!

2007-09-11T12:36:00.000+08:00

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

The Real Thing

2007-08-23T11:12:00.000+08:00

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!

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

2007-07-17T08:36:00.000+08:00

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

2007-07-13T12:53:00.001+08:00

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

Ah-ha!

2007-06-28T17:02:00.001+08:00

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...

2007-02-16T14:11:00.000+08:00

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

2007-01-26T20:20:00.000+08:00

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?

2007-01-19T13:58:00.000+08:00

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 :-)

The Verdict?

My First IMAX Experience

2006-11-24T14:07:00.001+08:00

Last Saturday, we went out to Berjaya Times Square. Well, considered that as a family outing:- we brought along my 2 SILs to watch IMAX : Open Season. It was a great experience, and worth our money spent...

Looking at the ticketing area, it was much2 less crowded compared to our normal cinemas (eg: GSC, TGV etc).

Waah..so less crowded, unlike GSC and TGV? hmmm...

The reason must be the pricing of the ticket..but the difference? Hmmpphh..IMAX is totally cool. Watching in 3D mode really gives you a satisfaction that you won't get when you watch in 2D..(Tapi kene abaikan about how do you look wearing damn big glasses: it was so funny)

Funny me in super-duper big glasses!

I'll definitely go often to IMAX if i can get lower price. But for now, sekali-sekala ajelah..

From where the shot was taken?

Could you guys guess? This pic was taken in the bubble lift at KLCC. You can see the photographer next to me, holding the camera-phone.

Eid Mubarak

2006-11-07T20:04:00.000+08:00

Salam All,

I think it's still not too late to wish all of you Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri..Maaf Zahir dan Batin (yes, i mean it..Maaf Zahir dan Batin). This is my first time to celebrate EidulFitri as a wife and luckily, still celebrating with my parents in our hometown..it's a bit different celebration this year, but one thing for sure will be the same every year: main bunga api and mercun ketupat! haha..you guys must be confused to see us adults playing bunga api...(definitely no kids..no joke man..betul ni x tipu, the eldest is 26 yrs old while the youngest is 13 yrs old)

Routine to follow: to get to know more about my husband relatives (penat tidak terkata, banyaaakk sangat rumah to go) and also pay my relatives regular visits. Satisfied with our raya this year..managed to invite our friends for makan2..at our house..(thanks to all who came) and now time to puasa 6...hopefully cukup 6 hari

Hopefully everyone is enjoying EidulFitri!

Uli Uli Aidifitri

2006-10-11T15:14:00.000+08:00

Last weekend, i've started our (me, MIL and SIL) mission: buat kuih raya! We've started with our very first kuih: TART GULUNG. The result: First doh a bit keras, but still sedap...Second doh and afterwards...sedappp!!!hehehe

Nampak sedap tak?

....and the best part is...my kuih tart dah ada bekasnya for hari raya!

ehehehe..cantik kan?

To be continued next weekend....

Bukapuasa@Outside part II

2006-10-11T12:03:00.000+08:00

Last Monday, again we decided to have a very well-deserved buka puasa outside..but still at KLCC. This time we aimed for Royal Thai Food, Chakri's Palace. No queuing, the best thing ever! I was craving for the crab (hmm yummy!) so that we had chosen ala carte menu..(no crab in buffet menu, can you believe that?)

The interior changed a lot...I showed that we hadn't had our lunch here for quite a long time...our menu: Of course la Tom Yam Gung, kerabu mangga and the crab! (already forgotten of the name) Not to be forgotten our favourite soursop juice (huh, mcm x ada air lain)

Yum Yum Yum :-)

Here comes the crab..the hidden crab (dah x de kulit dia)

My fave: Frozen Soursop

Gotcha! habiskan udang, x ingat org lain..

We still managed to shop our groceries at Cold Storage. After Maghrib prayer, we went back with our full stomach!

Bukapuasa@Outside

2006-10-11T11:02:00.000+08:00

We rarely break our fast outside..the reason: i go back early everyday, and still have time to cook..so why eat outside? Lucky me to have a husband who balun aje whatever i cook..(eventhough x sedap hehe)...but of course i only manage to cook very simple dishes, letihla nak masak yang complicated everyday..penat keje lagi...

So what we do is we top up our lauk with some other lauk and kuih from Bazaar Ramadhan nearby to mix and match with the dishes i cook. OK la so far, not much complaint from hubby..

Last week, we decided to tukar selera by breaking our fast outside..venue? of course la klcc..it's the
most convenient place to eat (heh, ye ke...maybe for my husband..since he's working at the tower..) It was Friday, since i was leaving the office early, i drove myself to KLCC and met him there. Too bad, i was stucked in traffic jam all the way to KLCC (it was 5 PM and the traffic was damn heavy). I only managed to reach there at 6..(huh normal journey normally takes only 20 mins..sigh..)

6 PM wasn't a good timing to search for available seats at my hubby's favourite chicken restaurant: NANDO's. Too long queue! We decided too break our fast with something (a slice of pizza, cut fruits and a bottle of guava juice). After Maghrib prayer, we went again to NANDO's and still people were queueing! hmmm..no choice, but to queue..

erhh..panjangnya queue!

At last..your deserved peri peri

We have their ramadhan special menu..and i just love love the bubble blackcurrant drink :-) Quite enjoying our meal, we went back at around 9 PM ++. Managed to snap few pics at Concourse hehe

besarnya ketupat! you can see the kolum too..

Money Matters

2006-09-28T12:00:00.000+08:00

HMMM...who said that Ramadhan is a month to berjimat-cermat...i don't believe in that..lagi koyak adala! Few weeks before Ramadhan, i've spent 20 bucks for serunding daging: for iftar. Plus another 4 bucks for home-made acar buah, promoted by one of my office-mate..hmm tu baru intro..

The next other day...ada jualan tudung pulak dekat office..i burn 70 bucks for that! Tudung raya konon...adoiii..ooppss lupa, i managed to burn another 70 ringgit for kuih raya...also promoted by my office-mate...sigh..tu dekat office je...not yet included bazaar ramadhan expenditure...shopping for raya, budget for duit raya...wowowowooo....it's really a money matter!

HP Raya

2006-09-25T09:32:00.000+08:00

Well, i think another post should be in my blog by today...hehe and since harini pun very unproductive...let me fulfil my time with something...to announce that i got a new phone!

Well, big thanks to my dearest hubby for sponsoring the phone..(haha, habis kopak duit bonus)
OK, it's not my dream phone k800i, but something else...hubby said it's too expensive, meaning that he's not willing to waste his money, i repeat: HIS MONEY...plus after a chit-chat with one of SONYWINGS' staff who stated that the phone is not that stable yet..and recommend him another model instead...so the best model he is willing to 'burn' his money for is only k750i OR w700i...hmm ok lah tu..since my phone pun dah very the very nazak...terima je lah..lagipun if i demand for more, mcm mana nak dapat baju raya, kasut raya, gelang raya (eheh!)

So, we went to Sg Wang yesterday..we surprised ourselves for not getting the aimed model but the other model and brand instead! The reason: our aimed model x de 3G..so alang-alang beli (and i am not a person who keep changing a phone) better get a 3G phone..so that later senangla..

We finally picked this NOKIA 6280.. i think it suites girls..all basic functions are there..camera 2.0 megapixels...hmm satisfied with this phone..but not sure how reliable it is so far..

NOKIA 6280

We have started capturing photos, and also deleting the unwanted mp3 songs downloaded by the 'orang kedai'..and still need time to explore more..maklumla..dah lama x pakai NOKIA..heh

Anyway, again, i'd like to express my gratitude to my dearest husband for this..mwahs mwahs!

Ramadhan Mubarak

2006-09-25T09:07:00.000+08:00

Alhamdulillah, as time goes by...my cough and flu are recovering well...seems Allah listened to what i've prayed for! Still not yet started my Quran recitement, hmm macam mana nak khatam dalam bulan pose ni? INSYA-ALLAH dengan izin-NYA, i'll start it very2 soon..
Yesterday, my puasa completed succesfully, but after buka puasa ada muntah sikit-sikit..really hope that i don't get my gastric this soon..masa tarawikh i'm sort of termengah-mengah..only able to do 8 rakaat tarawikh (eleh, alasan!)

Hehe..this morning i managed to get up for sahur..well actually sahur dekat my Parent-In-Law..after sahur baru balik to our apartment...we have to move to work before 7 today...since we start early and go back early for buka puasa in Ramadhan..My hubby and I need to clock in at 8.00 o'clock..i reached my office around 7.30 today..uh, another half an hour to..sleep? hehe..i can't help myself to sleep..so i decided to go surau to take a nap..

8 o'clock...start to work..but ngantuklah..network pun slow...hmm MONDAY BLUES Ramadhan Edition...

MY HEalth

2006-09-18T16:15:00.000+08:00

It's almost two weeks. Still tak baik lagi...i hate this cough..it really bothers me. Of course, for a person who can't live without talking and gossiping a lot: COUGH is really a bad disaster. Irritates me, you know. Gelak sikit, batuk. Cakap sikit, batuk lagi. Bangun tido, sakit tekak. Berus gigi, terbatuk-batuk.
HUH, MAKAN BATUK MINUM BATUK TIDUR BATUK.

Ramadhan is getting near, i am looking to recite all 30 juzuk (hopefullly INSYAALLAH) in this month. Tapi..batuk batuk dan batuk lagi. Am i capable to recite it all? Plus my big ulcer in the mouth, and my still-not-yet-recovered-flu...i really hope all of these 'circumstances' will be OK by next week. YA ALLAH kau sembuhkan segala penyakit ku, agar aku sihat di bulan MU yang penuh keberkatan ini. AMIN

So, apa azam anda dibulan barakah yg akan datang ini? Puasa penuh tak? INSYAALLAH :D

I love my husband

2006-09-14T15:24:00.000+08:00

I wrote a long post last few days...unfortunately it was't published successfully (don't ask me why, i hate to answer that). That was really frustrating..i hate to write the same thing again, and of course it was too long to rewrite! huh..so the only thing i can afford to write back is only the title of the post. And there it goes, enjoy the title!

This week is indeed the most tedious one..it's my turn to standby, and it is a real standby! so busy handling major maintenance and also breakdown..and until sunday pun ada maintenance! huh..what a hectic week...-sigh-i take it positively..there's nothing to lose handling all this...i think i get more: experience la especially..not the standby allowance :P

Last night sempat lagi tengok wayang! well, konon2 spending quality time dengan hubby la for this week.. (dengan harapan no outage at that time)..and thank god i was managed to watch the movie till the end of the story..not feeling so well this week, hopefully i will recover from my bad cough and flu soonest possible.

Husband dearie, sorry for not paying you full attention this week..tiredness+busy-ness+lazyness had turned me this way...SORRY!

i miss my baked beans :-(

2006-09-04T17:09:00.000+08:00

It was Ayam Brand Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce.. We had our breakfast that day with it..and our bread...it was so yummy, but i was unmanaged to settle the whole beans in the can..as i was badly losing my appetite recently...still wanted to save the unsettled beans..i stored the balance in the fridge...day by day, the beans was still left in the fridge, untouched. Nevermind, i'll eat it finally...

We spent our weekend at my parent in law's , leaving the beans with the milk, chocolate, veggies, etc in the fridge.

We went back to our apartment on Sunday...Yippee, couldn't wait to eat the beans with the bread we bought at Alamanda this morning..

I went to the kitchen..i saw my hubby washing a plate, i guess.. "Abang basuh apa tu? -Basuh ni...--->Huarrrggghhhh....it's my beans! :-(( BENCI

it's 8:41 PM and i'm still in the office...

2006-08-23T20:45:00.000+08:00

It's my turn to stand-by (and shift!)...that is why i am still in the office..not updating for some times in this blog...i decided to jot down something today...
well, nothing much happened..but obviously the most awaiting event: SITI NURHALIZA n DATUK K nikah ceremony was held last Monday...what a pheww...finally!
what else? uh: it was my ex-roommate's wedding last Sunday...SELAMAT PENGANTIN BARU AMI! me and few of my friends (yup, my friends not my hubby) attended her wedding all the way from KL to JB...she looked so nervous, as usual: blushing all day :P
I wish her all the best in her life...

RESERVED PARKING FOR : KAL 3202

2006-08-16T16:04:00.000+08:00

Last Friday my husband and I went to Mid Valley, for High Tea (owh, did i mention high tea?) As usual, we started to find the parking at nowhere-else-but-our-favourite-GZONE-parking area. It's somewhere at Menara IGB..This place has been our favourite parking since we were in uni, for some reason:

1) You only pay for the parking at the counter when you exit [soo good, you don't have to queue to pay for parking]
2) If you park at Level3, you can straight away heading to cinema...very easy, no more escalator nor elevator..
3) More and more parking space..unlike general parking at midvalley parking area..this is what we like most...

but that was during our old-sweet-time....we hardly found even 1 parking space..except the reserved one...my dear husband finally decided to park at one of reserved parking...me-don't want to say anything...as i had already told him not to park there...

There you go! Our car was blocked by a cute kancil...nothing much to do..but only to wait for the car owner....hmm...we waited for hours..and still the car was there..

Let's make the story more dramatic: Well, actually my family was on the way from Melaka: paying us a visit this weekeend..They called me to inform that there were almost at our home..and we were still waiting for the kancil driver!! huh, straight away i went home by commuter+lrt to welcome them..poor hubby, you waited for the driver yourself: without me...[well, you asked for it, sape suruh parking kat situ :P]

Finally at 10++PM, hubby returned home..with our car heheh...that kancil was a company car..and the driver had left home...luckily by the help of the guards, the car was managed to be moved and hubby was able to drive home safely (but of course with tiredness and regrets)

So, lesson learn: PARK YOUR CAR PROPERLY!

Reward Yourself...

Don't laugh reading this statement: I am now using Samsung A800 (Blue i) with no camera, no colour screen, no mp3 player, no 3G.... IT'S A NO-NO PHONE *winks*

I'm now eyeing for SonyEricsson k800i: Cybershot 3.2 megapixel camera phone, with 3G, large TFT screen..wiwiwiwiwiwi..it impressed me gila-gila then...look at it..solid figure (esp the camera) hmm barula korporat!

I must get this by end of this year! Abang izinkan ehh..(Still failed to get his approval..huh)

It's two month now after i am officially announced as a wife of Muhammad Khairie. My feeling? Hmmm..bercampur-baur...happy and honoured to be his only wifey..(yeah, ONLY) Well, let's look at the biggest decision made by us since the knot being tied:

We decided to move out from my parent in-law and live on our own. I'm not sure if this decision is made to soon or what..but i've got no choice:

1) I can't allow myself feeling too comfy staying in the house..because later both of us will not feel like moving out anymore..(why not, you've got nothing to worry: all bills settled by mak and abah, dinner will always ready when you work late and return home only at 8..so why move?) -->this is what i want to avoid of.

Being too comfortable of something will make you forget about any other thing you need to think of. Sorry mak and abah dearest, it's not that i don't like staying with you..i think both mak abah understand and agree with this decision.

2) It's my working schedule: I have standby-shift, which means 'abnormal' working hours. Start at 2 PM and return home at 10PM, followed by standby until 830AM the next day. Eventhough it's only one-week-in- a-month duty, i am sure they will be distracted with all this: the phone calls at 3AM, watching their only son waiting for wifey returning home at 10++PM..huh..it shows a bad reputation of me as a wife!

3) I can do all i want to! You won't wear a short in front of your father in law...You can't wake up late while your mother in law prepares the breakfast. Now in our own place: YEEHAA! i can wear anything i want, or nothing at all..(well this is the best reason that makes my dear hubby agrees to move out) anyway, thanks abang! for being so understanding and always supporting me for this...muaahhhss
