Tergezut Tau!

Salam...

malam tadi lepas dinner salad sayur rebus + buah2an Domino's Pizza, mak called...

Mak: Ju*u baru called mak, abg Jan (abg aku) baru bawak Adib pegi hospital...

Aku: Kenapa? (aku mcm guna tone biasa, sbb abg aku kadang2 mmg pegi hospital bila anak dia demam)

Mak: Adib ni haa tertelan coin...

Aku: Astaghfirullah...

Tu laa kejadian mlm tadi... Adib, Adib... memang u ni penuh ngan surprise laaa... hari tu jari tersepit kat basikal laaa.. jatuh toksah cakap laa kan... benjol sana sini pon banyak kisah...
What laa you... but as some people said, anak jantan kena ada experience mcm ni... haaa, hero aku pon ada kejadian dia tersendiri, kepala lutut termasuk dalam nestum panas, yg sedang dimakan oleh Aunty I*ja nya itu... konon2 nya nak tumpang duduk sebelah aunty dia tu, sekali tersalah budget, terus lututnya parking dalam tu... kesian dia, dah ada 'cop mohor' kat lutut tu, pasal nestum plak tu... *lol*... kesian anak mommy...

by the way, adib punya kes plak, Dr. x-ray mlm tadi gak, and mmg nampak 20sen dalam perut dia... (macam magic lak makan2 duit ni)... kesian anak buah aku tu, tak pasal2 kena makan ubat yg buat dia poo- poo banyak kali... supaya duit itu dapat diwithdraw... kalau tak gak, Dr. will have to do something on him tonite.. ok, adib... make sure you poo-poo ok? mommy roz hopes things will be better, Insya Allah...

dah lepas ni toksah makan duit... makan nestum! tapi jgn jadik cam your wonderful cousin, adam... terendam lutut dalam nestum itu... take care! mmuuuaahhhh!

subject identified... wearing helmet! (time ni tgh tunggu Dr. nak kasik ubat, muka ttp maintain)

apa perasaan anda? (answer: takde perasaan, rasa biasa saja bila dah telan...)

my hero... ('cop mohor' terlindung time nih)

A New Star in the Making...

Salam...

A friend of mine has safely delivered a baby girl last Sunday, Alhamdulillah... Congrats to both A*im and Has*i... finally kan? You must glad, all the pain and the worriness worth the wait... ;) She weighs 3.04kg, normal delivery @ Pantai Med. Ctr by Dr. (ntah!)... err sorry, no info available... lupa nak tanya...

A cutie pie she is (baby mana yg tak pon kan?)... thick hair, opened her eyes throughout my visit (except she went back to sleep few minutes before we left)... she's blushing red! that means she's very very fair (mak bapak pon dah putih melepak!)

Her parents named her Hannah Tan Qaireena Sofiyya... lovely name!

Ok, now it's that time for me again... nak anak jugak... a girl perhaps? Insya Allah... pray for me...

orait... chiao.. and baby dust to me, and whoever's trying out there!

ooohhhh, I miss that feeling... cuddling this baby size person (and it's mine)...

relaxed...

tensed... (nobody's hugging me!)


Congrats to both of you, Jimni... comelsness!!!

Photography 101

Salam...

Gosh! I'm taking my newfound hobby quite seriously... how? I've attended this basic photography class by Ariff (http://www.ariffaris.com/). He's a friend of a friend and introduced me to him... (in fact we went to these 2 sessions together)...

I've been lucky coz Arif conducted personal session for both of us so all the silly questions were shooted with no major embarassment shown on my face... heheheh...
So here are the things that Ive learned from him... (if you wanna know more, do contact me in person... I charge you murah2 only... hahahah... kidding)

Session 1: Using a Digital Camera
1. Modes
2. Shutter
3. Light Meter
4. Aperture
5. Time
6. Sensitivity
7. Noise/ISO
8. Sharpness
9. Spot Focus
10. Depth of Field
11. Focal Length
12. Hue
13. Saturation
14. Temperature
15. White Balance
16. Color Spaces
17.Monitor versus Printer

Session 2: Understanding your camera
1. Point and Shoot
2. Manual Controls
3. Single Lens Reflex
4. Wide Angle Lens
5. Normal Lens
6. Telephoto lens
7. Digital Pixels vs Film
8. Size
9. Digital Image Sensor
10. Image Size
11. Resolution
12. Compression
13. Storage Media

so my next session will be the practical one... (shoot! I practically bought this just to take my son's + hubby's pic... and I don't really need this... but who cares? Maybe I like to see better picture coming out from my 'snap- snap'...)

oh yeah, by the way, I'd like to post 2 pix that I took recently... (so what 'ya think?) Got talent or not?

my jubilant... in his 'playful' mode...

'forced labor'... to the photographer, as the self- acclaimed model (on the left) would torture yours truly to take his countless numbers of pix... seen here with my jubilant...

Hari Sabtu & Ahadku 14.02 & 15.02 (A Trip to Kuala Selangor)

Salam...
ok... kalau dah tak celebrate V- Day tu, ajak laa kawan2 merayap2... ke mana? Kelip2 di Kg. Kuantan, Kuala Selangor! Woohoo!!! Mula2 tu almost nak dicancelkan on Friday, sbbnya tak ramai yg free, tapi disebabkan semangat kawan2 aku yg lain dah meronta2 nak pegi, maka diteruskan jugak...
kitorang bertolak lps zuhur on saturday... berenti lunch kat R&R Awan Besar kat Kesas tu, headed towards Sg. Buloh... then to Kuala Selangor. The journey took about 1.5 hours, not bad la kan... sampai jek, ingatkan nak straight pegi hotel, tapi kawan2 aku yg dah memang teruja tu, nak tgk site dulu...

Site visit...

then, off to the hotel, de palma hotel, kuala selangor... lepak2 kejap sampai laa kitorang ready2 after maghrib prayer utk ke Kg. Kuantan, tempat rasmi kelip2 tu menginap... (time ni semua cam dah kemaruk, dan excited gila dah!)... beli tiket $10 sorang (sampan hanya boleh memuatkan 4 org penumpang sahaja, so kalau korang datang ber2, make sure pandai2 laa carik kawan baru kat situ nanti mintak ditumpangkan atau korang ajak dia tumpang bot korang nanti)... ni ala2 kes prebet sapu laa, kereta takkan jalan kalau tak cukup orang lagi :) aku ngan laki aku kena naik ngan satu couple cina yg muda (dorang tgh celebrate V-Day sambil tgk kelip2, so sweet!), manakala kawan2 aku yg 4 org tu naik satu bot... harus laa berlumba... hahah, takdelah...

Ni laa chalet kami @ De Palma (model: anakku yg aktif itu...)

aku cam cuak2 gak laa, psl dorang mmg kata ada buaya (standard laa dah kalau sungai yg ada udang, mmg ada Pak Ya ni!) ala2 ngeri laa gak memikirkannya... tp dorang kata dia tak usik kalau tak usik dia... so dgn bismillah, kami pon naik bot... so masa pendayung aku yg cool tu bawak ke seberang sungai (kat pokok2 tu korang dah nampak cahaya kelip2... dan pemandangan dia sebijik mcm christmas tree)... korang dah macam terlupa semua tu... Subhanallah, cantik!

bapak & anak atas sampan... nasib ada life jacket, rasa secured sikit...

abis jek semua tu, kami apa lagi, sesi makan laa pulak... abang pendayung suggest kitorang pegi Jeram, makan seafood kat Pantai Jeram... food takde laa sedap gila, biasa2 jek... I've had better laa...

satu family yg gambar mereka dirakam (tanpa ada rasa malu...)

esoknya tu, lepas check- out, kitorang pegi berjalan2 kat tpt bersejarah pulak @ Bukit Malawati... tgk2 meriam Belanda, rumah api semua... kat atas tu pon ada muzium about Selangor ni, so you can easily kill time kat situ laa... (sbb kalau tak kang rasa takde apa2 sangat atas tu, selain melayan monyet2 jek)... korang tau tak, salah satu version mana datangnya nama Selangor ni ialah there was this one pahlawan terkenal dan handal laaa... sekali ada satu time tu, dia tgh lepak2, datang satu langau hinggap kat pipi dia, dia pon sudah naik hangin la kan... dia tampar pipi dia dgn sekuat- hatinya dgn harapan nak punahkan langau tu, belakang dgn jayanya langau itu dapat terbang... maka sakit pipi + sakit hati free2 jek laa kan... terus dia terpk, aku dgn org tak kalah, tapi ngan langau boleh kalah? Sure tpt ni bertuah, aku nak namakan this place Se-Langau (seekor langau)... last2 nama ni tukar Selangor over the times... mak aih, cam psycho kan? Tp tu laa, ada lagi 2-3 version yg nampak lagi convincing laa jalan cita dia dari yang ni, tp somehow yg ni jugak aku hafal... hahahhaa... mungkin aku kesiankan mamat dalam cita ni sbb pipi dia sure kemerah2an sbb sakit dah menahan malu...

ni laa geng2 pengembaraan ke Kuala Selangor...

so dah abis2 semua tu, kitorang pon turun aaa balik (eh lupa, nak naik atas, dan turun tu semua korang boleh naik tram yg tiket $2 for dewasa, $1 for kids, dan kitorang rasa worth gila, sbb abg drebar tuh mmg layan penumpang2 dia haritu mcm naik roller- coaster... lap ajek keja dia.. best woooo!)... then, ready to head home... on the way tu sempat lagi menyinggah kat A&W Subang Jaya... woohooo.. best laa weekendku kali ni... Cuti- Cuti Malaysia...

tram (pandangan depan... tak nampak kitorang, kitorang ada kat belakang, biasa laaa, rock! :)

haaa, tengok dia lap sekali... dia buat lebih 12x, tau!... :)

Hari Jumaatku 13.02.09 (Geng Pengembaraan Bermula- Upin & Ipin)

Salam...

Balik jek from ofis, aku terus ajak suamiku tgk wayang... pasal aku cam ada bosan sket nak balik rumah, ditambah pulak macam terasa nak melayan 'my jubilant' tu.. so we decided to watch Upin & Ipin The Movie...

Keseluruhannya, utk satu production yg not that big yet, aku salute... cerita mmg entertaining, lawak2 dia boleh diterima (taklaa bodo, dan tak laa trying too hard)...

www.gengthemovie.com

Kitorang enjoy... tapi yg kelakarnya, plan nak tgk yg 8.30pm punya, pegi2 beratur, tgk tinggal depan2 jek... sakit laa tengkuk nanti... next show was at 10.30pm, tanpa berpikir panjang kami pon beli, and got the best seats for the 3 of us... since tak dapat tgk that 8.30 pm punya show, terus aku ajak MAM pi makan char kuay teow kat taman bunga raya, setapak... (sbb masa amik AZA tu ternampak satu cita pasal tpt2 makan best kat KL ni, yg salah sorang contestant raja lawak 2 tu host ngan farouk hussein... dorang cita psl tpt ni laa, and aku dah penah pegi dulu -Si S*ed yg introducekan)

sampai jek... mak aihhh panjang gila org beratur, dan sesungguhnya sure tak sempat kalau nak tgk wayang pasni.. maka kami pon amik keputusan makan nasik lemak jek laaa... pon panjang, tapi tak sepanjang CKT tu... hish, frust tak dapat makan...
p/s: sapyyyyyy... go!

Puteri Gunung Ledang Season III

Salam...

Last Fri aku + MAM pegi tgk PGL... so dengan penuh semangat juang tinggi (time ni darah Hang Tuah + Tun Teja aku tgh memuncak) dan penuh berkobar2, kami pon pegi... all this while org banyak cakap best gila, gempak... so aku pon wanna be one of them laa konon2nya... pastu dapat pulak tiket free 2, B*M kasik... sempena 50 tahun, so semua staff dapat laaa kan...

hmmm, pegi2, dan sampai right on time, 8.25pm to be exact! sbb katanya start pkl 8.30pm... belakang pukul 9pm! iskk, siapa laa VVIP(s) punya angkara laa tu... nak jek aku ngutuk! tapi sbb masa tu dah pasang mood nak layan... so aku boh kan ajek!

maka cerita pon bermula... opening sangat menarik! yada...yada... yada... sampai laa part Hang Tuah keluar... nyanyi mmg power gila si stephen rahman tu... tapi bila dia cakap... mmg laa aku boleh bg kredit kat dia di atas kesungguhan dia pabila mengenangkan dia melayu celup... tapi alangkah akan kurangnya cacat cela itu, pabila ianya seorang melayu tulen yg memegang watak hero terakhir melayu itu! sbb kadang2 korang akan terdengar bunyik2 ala- ala "my secha-wen" dia tu... other than that, he's awesome!

pastu aku paling suka part adlin, si sultan mahmud gila kuasa itu menari gatal sbb dia nak kawin ngan Gusti Putri Raden Adjeng Retno Dumilah... yup! secara mengejutnya, mamat tu boleh nyanyi, menari light2, sambil membuat muka gatal... hahaha, funny as heck!
dan of course laaa, suamiku yang sporting itu amat suka dgn "AC di mana??? AC Disini..." sebagai Gusti Adipati Handaya Ningrat... si AC tu siap buat tarian rappers dia masa semua2 pelakon menundukkan diri berterima kasih kepada kami.... suamiku harus laa memberi standing ovation kan? (aku pon sekali... ehehhee)...

tapi ending dia tak berapa best... mcm slow ajek... aku budget dorang nak buat ending yg ada impact skett... cam yang jenis kau akan kata "Alamak, dah abissss? perrghhhh! syahdu... best! best!", tapi sayangnya tidak... ending dia biasa2 jek...
kesimpulannya, not so bad laa.. boleh laa kata best... aku kasik 3.5 bintang laaa... ke lebih aaa? ok laa.. 4 bintang... ok laa tu.. not bad laa utk aku yg tak pandai kritik menda2 seni ni.. hehehhe


ni jek laa aku dapat... curtain call...

dah abissss... boleh balik!

Harus ada background tu...

Hang Tuah wannabe?

another wannabe? (apsal mata aku cam juling air?)
mereka bergambar dgn salah satu hantaran utk Gusti Putri, air mata rakyat satu tempayan


kami...


Hang Tuahku yg gagah perkasa... love you, laling!

"orang Melaka bersopan- santun, pandai pula berpantun" - Gusti Putri

(kah... kah... kah... jgn marah laa ieta dan -suamiku-, don't hate us (aku dan -suamimu Nuar-) coz we're beautiful... beautiful Malacca decendents... ekekekek... sorry laa, dorang takde quote org Kelantan in that story... nanti suruh Tiara buat cerita Cik Siti Wan Kembang, okeh? :)

PEMBETULAN

Salam...

I just got to know nama anak buah aku yg baru telah ditukar oleh abg iparku dalam perjalanan dia ke JPN utk mendaftar baby tu... (refer: the birth of a princess) Kan kat situ aku tulis nama dia Latifah Maryam, tapi on the way, dia sudah tukar Cempaka Latifah...

so the baby is now formally registered as Cempaka Latifah Maryam... (ni aku salah type haritu)...

hmmm... blur aku sekejap :)

Shopaholic Went Crazieeeee...

Salam...

Yup, it's madness! After I've made a couple of purchases from my 'hard- earned' bonus (ye, that is to forget my ex- boss and lagipon that's for hubby and myself)... I bought another extravagant item/ gadget/ I'm-starting-a-new-hobby kinda thing...

kaching!!! seriously... I went nuts the moment I got to know someone was letting it go at cheaper price... (he's a friend of a friend, lepas beli terus add dia jadik kawan FB aku.. hahaha, Senang sikit nak call2 kalau aku ada soalan2 cepu emas...) I took this step by not telling MAM about it first, coz I know, he'll freak out on my impulse buying... (eh, impulse ke? taklah... lama aku pikir... 24 jam! lama laa tu, sejam pikir pon dah peluh2...) So, off I go, meeting the seller together with my friend who is his friend, too... dalam berpikir tak berpikir tu... aku dah set dah dalam hati "yup, I'm definitely getting this" walaupon aku tak tau apa akan terjadi selepas ini dalam episod sinetron aku dan lakiku... tapi malas nak amik pot at that time... I want it, I want it...

so when I brought back that 'thing', telling my hubby that the seller gave me the chance to try it out first before I make decision, hubby seems interested in that 'thing' (wah, GOOD sign! sbb suamiku mmg suka dgn benda2 cenggini...) but he just said that it's not necessary at the moment... tanpa prasangka, mukaku sudah ada muncung :@ I bought it already, what should I do? I can't simply return it and ask for refund... Malu ahhh dong!

Then, there was this communication session between us... I told him every reason in the world why I want this thing (read: benda ni dah dalam tangan selama seminggu lebih, and hubby asked when am I suppose to return it back?) At first, he seemed uninterested... walaupon aku dah cakap I'll claim it from company's staff benefit... he said he rather me have the cash than buying that not-so-important gadget... and of course, mestilah aku kena menang! I told him, you can't get cash money unless you claim it for something tangible/ intangible... Then he just said, "Kalau camtuh, baik beliiiii....." hahahahah, terus mataku berkaca-kaca... terasa kebahagiaan tidak diragut... yes! What I dreaded the most is not becoming a reality... thank you, B. You make my life easier (read: keadaan tetap sama kalau direject... hahaha, ye ke? *wink*wink*)

so now I'm a proud owner of... NIKON D60 (as promised, the pic is attached, bersendalkan remote astroku itu)

BTW, that's the story of yours truly yang suka membeli ini... God, come to think of it, I have lots of things to let go... I dont want to be a hoarder... maybe I'll put it up for sale/ giveaway... tengok laa camana...

lastly, SHOPAHOLIC MODE: ON (alamak, still on lagi??? dangerous, dangerous...)
