I Commit Myself To You...

Salam...

One of my anak angkats finally got married... Alhamdulillah... congrats Alle*m & Saki*ah! You guys rock! Got married at the age of 20 and still in the college! Saki*ah is Alle*m's classmate, who is at the same time, the daughter of the dean in their school! Wah, terrer laa you, pandai mengayat anak dekan you!... Whatever it is, me and Uncle Lan are happy for you.. and don't forget to study and be a good paed one day, Insya Allah...

I knew his family when we were in States. His parents were the most helpful person in the world... seriously, we have never met anybody like them... They came from a very well- known family, and yet so humble... even the kids! I adore them so much esp on the first day I arrived in States, imagine the moment they saw me for the first time, they came running to me, took my hand, kiss it and give salam... and the best part, they were raised in States! (and their English is so berabuk, I tell you! hahaha)... and they are always like that until now... sometimes it made me and MAM think, why aren't kids (not all) in Malaysia like that... to have respect to other people, hug and kiss their mommies in public without feeling embarass (esp boys), bond with fathers like friends (they do it until now, I'm hoping AZA will do these to us later, Insya Allah)...

So, next in line is Zuf*r... yeay! nasik minyak lagi...

he was with his Gameboy all the times and always fought with her lil' bro, Azz*em... and he's married now...

The family that we owe them a lot... Thanks, you guys the bestest!

with them all...

Another story, my SIL was 'dirisik' (what they call it in English, BTW?) about 2 weeks ago... Congrats Ij*... and lets start planning for your big day (she's skipping her engagement part, straight to the point, she said)... hehhe... so what's AJK you're putting me for? The exhaustion of handling Abelong's wedding last year isn't over yet, and I'm back at it again... mak aihh, penatnya! But nevermind, as long as you get what you want for your moments! Let the engine running....

sesi penyarungan cincin

some gifts exchanged. this were prepared by her... nice eh? she's a florist pon, tu yg cantik dia buat...

I'm Always Yours...

Salam...

semalam tak sempat nak update, MC... sakit belakang + ada perasaan 'tak rajin' sikit ;)
so aku tepek laa apa yg berlaku hari rabu haritu...
Yours truly and her hubby went to Stadium Negara, tgk concert... Jason Mraz!!!
sangat seronot!!!
walaupon aku hanya dapat mengikut 3-4 lagu sahaja (hafal separuh2 jek pon), dan lagu2 yg lain tu tak tau langsung (alaa, biasa laa ada ramai org gak camtuh)... aku tetap melayan... walaupon dgn hanya menepuk2 tangan, tepuk2 peha dan goyang2 tengkok!

dan si Jason itu sangatlah comel! not from the way he looks, but his gestures and everything... iskk, toksah cakap laa pompuan2 sebelah/ depan/ belakang aku kan... terjerit2... aku jek tak! suamiku kan ada kat sebelah.. kena laa control... hahaha, tidak laa kan... lakiku pon akan blur kalau aku dok senyap begitu sahaja...

abis concert tu, kitorang tak balik terus... tunggu kat backstage door pulak! tunggu dia balik... aku dapat laa good spot by the tangga bus... bila JM tu nak naik bas jek, menjerit2 laaa semua org (mind you, kita tak jerit ok! kita jerit2 halus jek...) dia siap baling t-shirt and this one girl yg duduk atas bahu bf dia dapat... imagine kalau aku yg duduk atas bahu suamiku juga, konfem dapat laa deeyyy!!! (tapi suamiku kata, kalau harus terjadi begitu, dia kata it will be a win- lose situation, aku menang dapat t-shirt, dia kalah dapat sakit tengkok!) chaittttt! nanti akak turunkan berat dulu, baru dia boleh carry... oohhh sungguh romantisnya janjimu itu, suamiku...

but anyhow... kami gumbira... esp MAM, pasal dia yg nak sangat tgk... aku belanja dia mengenangkan aku frust si Rihanna tu cancel... so aku tutup mata dan beli jek JM's tix ni... (letih dah tau hafal lagu Rihanna, bila laa dia nak buat concert ni?)

(pix to come, tak upload lagi)

Work vs. Blogging

Salam,

after some time I have not been at other people's office (my job requires me to be at one, actually... bosannya!), I am now today writing from one of my banks...

fortunately this particular bank is very near to my dear hubby's office... so when it's time to go home, I can just walk to his office instead of following my teammates back to the office, to continue working...

I'll be here until Apr... oh! that is too long... we do have Internet connection here, but on sharing basis... so, even if I wanna use it to check emails, yada-yada-yada... I might not have the luxury of blogging... ooohhh sungguh tak bestnya... I can't really catch- up on what's happening, but I'll try my very best to do so, even if I have to sacrifice my lunch hour (when all of them are gone eating)... but errr, would I do so in this freezing room??? Maybe YES NOT!

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!!!

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...

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...)

Is Eating Out Alone an Embarassment?

Salam...

I took the opportunity during today's lunchtime to have my own 'me- time'... guess any one of you who never had this break from the dysfunctional and total hypocrite world, should just try it! Coz it's all worth it... and for me, that 2.5 hours walking around S*go in the middle of Friday afternoon, with lots of people scurrying around that S*go Sale (read: bila masa S*go tak pernah sale?) it was time well spent... I didn't bother to have a peek at what people get on hold of, I just wanna walk, walk and walk (and bought brand new toys for AZA)... until my tummy was crying for help, and my legs were not able to bring my body forward...

... then I decided to have chicken rice... long queue, but whatever, coz my eyes and brain has fixated on that kedai... "I want that nasik ayam with drumstick, only RM5.00... ok laa, boleh!"
But that makcik said no more drumstick , and pointed to that half-chopped chicken with no drumstick, taken by the girl before me... and right in front of my eyes, there were like 6-7 chickens hanged by the glass... and you said "no more?" "Oh come on! you can do better than that!" But, I still took it, coz famished was my middle name that time, paid and found a place with 4 chairs available...

While seating, people were moving back and forth around me, apparently that place was packed and you could hardly find a seat at that moment... and of course, being alone, I was victimized... dang! go find other place, I pay tax, too! and I just to want have my moment here... but of course, how can I say that aloud... they have this look on their face, stated "you are alone, hurry up... we are in group, need place to sit... where are your friends?" It made me wonder, was I ever feel embarassed eating out alone (I did this zillion times, FYI)... and guess what? NEVER! In fact, sometimes I just need to savour that moment... not that I dislike having people with me (I love hang-outs with people), but sometimes you just need to be drowned in your own thoughts, do monologue etc...

So at the end of the story, I still maintained my elegance (by eating slowly, as if I was doing 'fine dining' LOL)... and they left with total frustration showed on their faces... akakakakkaka...

BFF Gathering on CNY

Salam...

We had this tea- time session yesterday, and it was an impromptu one! Yes, trust me my beloved friends, the success rate of planning something in advance is almost close to zero, but if it's done on impluse, Insya Allah, done! We have to work on that, please... too many plans got canceled... commitment, commitment...

nevertheless, yesterday's one was fun... altho it was suppose to be a teatime session, we got ourselves slurping up glasses of juices, and topping up calories... cheese here and there... :) and to add the fun, we celebrated our lil' next top model's birthday, Izznur... how we could see her face glows when the waiters and waitresses brought out the Molten Cake with candle and sang the official song loudly... Happy birthday, kakak!

so pretty ladies, lets make this again some other time, Insya Allah... and if it's going to be a prompt one, so let it be...

p/s: can't wait for our coming vacation... and Najwa, seriously... we missed you in the crowd! oh yeah, on other note, my hubby was spending his day at the office (too many things to be done)... and he spent the nite there... huhuhuhuh, I miss you, too...

p/s 2: Id like to take this oppotunity to congratulate my cousin who just got married last week... Selamat pengantin baru, Min (and the bride)... semoga kekal ke akhir hayat, dan selamat meramaikan umat Muhammad... amin...

Acupuncture

Salam...

Ye, aku dah try... and surprisingly tak sakit! hahaha, sapa2 yg kenal aku, mmg korang tau aku ni suka menerai (almost!) all of these 'kaedah perubatan alternatif (pls aaa, bomoh2 gua tak main!)... aku dah try bekam (yang lintah punya pon aku dah buat)... klik sini...

so haritu aku pegi homeopathy clinic @ kg. baru... nak kata sakit, tak gak... tp tu laa, kata nak try pregnant lagi kan... so I opt for homeopathy laa pulak, sbb aku ada pegi hospital biasa, jumpa O&G, the doctor precribed aku Clomid, to rangsang my brain to ovulate (or something like that)... tp dr tu dah warned aku awal2, this hormone2 punya ubat ni akan menyebabkan badan naik!!! mmg tak tipu, sapa2 perasan aku, mmg aku tgh musim 'prime' skarang ni, TEMBUN! bencik! tapi takde apa2 gak (tak pregnant laa)...

maka aku pon mencuba laa homeopathy ni, utk this cycle... selain kena makan ubat, dr. Faridah (mak aihh, pekat gila slang Kelantan dia, sib baik suamiku berketurunan Kelantan itu ada... heheheh) suggested aku buat acupuncture... so aku pon agreed... I think there were about 12 needles kot; ada yg kat kaki, perut dan kepala... tak sakit, and aku boleh tido ngan baiknya...
dan suamiku seperti biasa, pon menumpang tido di katil sebelah... ehehhehe... (tapi dia taknak buat)... seriau katanya...

the charges were RM45, not bad laa kan... aku dah budget2 beratus2 ke... hmmm, the effect after that? ntah laaa... aku ada laa rasa lenguh2 skett kat belah kaki aku (no, aku tak rasa badan aku ringan... aku tak kalah saiko)... tapi who knows, mana tau internal organs aku dah rasa semakin ok ke... ehhehe... atau semua tgh berfungsi secara optimumnya kat dalam tu :)... Wallahhualam...

so sapa2 nak try, boleh laa cuba... kalau rasa2 nak get some info on acupuncture, get it here...
Renung- renungkan... dan selamat beramal...

Basic Cake & Cupcake Deco (Buttercream)

Salam...

Last Sunday tu aku pegi class masak- memasak, yg dianjurkan oleh Kak Min from Bakingproject.com...

Ni class kedua aku laa selepas class 'Fondant Cupcake Deco' aku tu... Thanks Kak Min, I think that was super easy (bayangkan laa kalau aku yg tangan bangku ni boleh buat, korang2 yg lagi hustler dari aku, of course kacang punya!)

There was a cake that we had to decorate... dang! tiba2 terasa cantik cake yg aku buat, yg bertatahkan 3 kuntum bunga rose ok! walaupon bunga rose tu Kak Min kata banyak sangat petals-nya, I was a bit satisfied... Kak Min, I punya bunga hidup kat tpt tinggi... tu yg banyak petals... baja pon pakai yg organic... :)

And then there were 6 other cupcakes to spoil with... we did clown, swirl, colored piping gel (aku buat peace sign, but some said cam merc punya logo), grass, and the last 2 tu buat free design... maka aku pon membuat muka perempuan comel dan corak bebas... (tgk la gambar tu)...

so what do you guys think?

p/s: sorry laa gambar blur, amik guna hp jek...

The Birth of a Princess

Salam...

Last nite, abg iparku dah selamat dapat anak, walaupon kerja meneran dijalankan oleh birasku, Ay*ng... Alhamdulillah... all went well... ntah mcm mana aku pon terexcited sekali.. maybe sbb pompuan kot.. hehehe.. aku mana ada anak sedara pompuan... well, on my side, guys really outnumbered us, the girls... sbb tu kalau tgk aku dan cousin2 perempuanku during our adolescence years, macam jantan2 skett... all were treated equally with our brothers... aku dah ada bf baru berubah... auwwww!

Ay*ng delivered a healthy baby girl at Tawakal Hosp around 8.23pm (hmmm malam gak, abis laa you, baby lahir malam, susah nak tido malam... my AZA is for instance)... hehhehe... She weighs around 3.06kg... not bad for a lil' girl... and putih, a double joy for Pok Mak's family... hehehe

nice jawline, girl!

To Abg A*il and Ay*ng, congratulations... let us know her name the soonest ;) Selamat berpantang, and hope you may get back your 'anak dara' shape back...

sleepyhead... wish I have the same pleasure at this very moment...

with her ibu...

Update: Latifah Maryam is her name... cool huh?

(on second note, a new correction on the name has been made: PEMBETULAN)

:: Last Dayku di IT & DFI Supervision ::

Salam...

Hari ni last day kat dept ni... esok to start at a new place, old building, with new + old friends...
tiba2 aku terasa sayu, cam sedih nak tinggalkan tpt ni, lagi satu the bonding...
baru laa ada rasa2 nak rapat sesama org ni, org tu... hmmm, nak buat camana... orang atas sudah suruh, mmg laa takleh lawan...

teringat masa mula2 masuk keja dulu... hari2 aku balik, hari2 aku bebel kat MAM, cakap aku nak berenti, nak keja sendiri... takmo keja ngan org... tapi ntah mcm mana, aku berjaya tahan sampai 2 thn kat sini... :)
akan berulang lagikan kejadian itu esok dan hari2 yg mendatang?
hmmm... ntah laaa... tunggu dan lihat...

akan comfortable kah tpt baruku itu nanti? seperti 'happy nest' aku kat sini?
semuanya akan terjawab mulai esok...

Free Palestine... Get Yourself Out, Assholes

Salam...

I know my title isn't the best thing to show my hatred, my loath towards those damn Israelis... but what the heck, they deserve it...

6 tahun yang sudah terjadi itu...

Salam...

'twas my 6th anniversary yesterday... tiba2 teringat jari2 tangan dan kakiku yg merah2 dulu... iskk, memang best laa time tu, tapi kalau nak buat lagi, takmo dah aku...! teringat mlm before nak nikah tu, kejung2 jek sleeping style aku.. tak caya tanya BFF aku yg tido ngan aku mlm tu, Ch*h... dia laa yg jaga inai2 aku tu, supaya tak rosak/ cacat etc... heheheh... memang keras laa kan aku mlm tu, sib baik malam esoknya tu tido ngan suami baru... ahaks...

banyak benda yg boleh dikongsi dan tidak boleh sepanjang aku dah berlaki ni... Alhamdulillah, even ada benda yg tak patut dibanggakan pon, it really make me realize something.. that nobody can beat my hubby.. he's the greatest... (ye laaa, korang puji laa laki korang sendiri.. aku tetap nak puji laki aku gak!) aku ni banyak buat perangai, biasa laaa.. pompuan pon kan, merajuk laa, angin turun naik laa... tapi he knows well on where to tackle it... so last2 aku pon jadik cam pompuan yang lembik lutut.. kalah beb! hehhehe...

to MAM, my favorite B... tima kasih for everything... saya sayang awak... sangat2... terima kasih atas prezen itu... saya suka! and marilah kita mengembirakan tahun2 yg mendatang ini, Insya Allah...

to all... salam maal hijrah... semoga 1430 dan 2009 ini mendatangkan rahmat dan 'ong' yang berlipat- kali ganda... Aminnn...

so this new year, wish aku (aku tak berapa into azam... wish jek)... hhehehhe

1. nak pregnant lagi... double up the effort, Insya Allah
2. nak beli 2-3 benda.. (malu ah nak cakap)...
3. nak pi umrah...
4. nak pi vacation ngan parents aku...
5. nak masukkan AZA kat sekolah main2.. so that he can learn to make new friends...

tu jek laa yg aku boleh terpk setakat ni... nanti from time to time, aku tau apa aku nak kot... :)
