Tips!

How to sleep with a movie star!!!! Heheheh...ya ya as if I'm going to give you that tip. Saje je buat gempak. Actually it was a new book that I read. One of the little black dress book. Best sangat. Its like what most women or should i say female fantasy. Notlah part sleep tuh but the part that a very famous and most eligible bachelor andddd the most famous and cutest actor and an almost a perfect guy falls for someone who is just so ordinary and plain (like me). So out of this world! hemmm..it is a dream...Tapi kalau nak ikutkan actors kat Mesia ni...duh...takpalah...I'll reserve my fantasy later laterlah.

The Book

Oh and i like this phrase from the book...'I liked you so much, but i knew nothing could ever happen, because that would be crazy-because, I mean, someone like u could never like someone like me, but i couldn't help myself from having these totally inappropriate feelings for u eventhough I know it is impossible....(Reply)You're not pathetic . I never thought you were. You're not plain and you're not boring. I thought you were really something special. Something different'....hemm..you guess from there...so hopelessly romantic kan?

So last weekend i went to Cintasari Spa with my eldest sis. Sja je nak rehat-rehatkan body. It was a so relaxing experience. I took the Bali Kopi package where it consists of Foot Bath, Sauna, Body Massage (so sedap that I totally felt asleep), Coffee Scrub (rasa macam nak minum coffee je...the coffee tu dibawa khas from Bali), Honey Treatment (after that you will feel that your skin is as smooth as silk) and Sea Salt Bath (hem...siokkkk with flowers all around you...rasa macam dalam movie jek). That treatment is suppose to help remove old skin, acne & pigmentation and it is definitely leave your skin smooth with the final layer of honey for perfection. Hehe memanglah tak dapat apa-apa commission tapi it may give an idea or boleh meransangkan your hormone to try spa lak later later. Bukan apa sometimes you need to pamper yourself once in while kan and its good for your helath too. I was told that those who went to spa regularly jarang sakit. best wooo...u should give that a try. I like the sauna part and the body massaging.

At the moment I have mix feelings...something like butterfly in the stomach thingy. Unpatient for the news, debaran and a bit susah hati. Entahlah. I will update later if I receive any news today. Hope it will be a good one and I just pray for the best.

Emm last Friday had lunch kat The Coast again...but kali ni different company plak. Went there with Nomy and Juit plak. Suppose to meet Zeera there but she was tied up at the hospital. Rugi woo Zeera hang tak mai. Si Juit sampai makan sakit-sakit perut. Tulah perut kecik tapi selera besau. It was a nice outing though but the funniest part was when me and Nomy susah nak cari si Juit. Actually we went with 2 cars. Juit was following us cuma bila part parking tu kena separatelah but lepas tu yang chaos tuh. Nak jumpa tak terjumpa-jumpa but if dah jodoh tu terjumpa gak at last. hahaha..and masa tengah makan tu nampak VK Lingam and the team makan kat Penang Village. Feel like taking his pic to post it here. But kang jadik controversy plak. Hehehe.

Last but not least...CONGRATULATIONS MAWI!!!! Seronoknya Mawi menang persembahan terbaik for AJL. He's the best and he deserves to win. Caiyo Mawi! (ya as if he's reading this..who knows...)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR!

Happy Birthday to my dearest!! Yesterday was my hubby's birthday yang ke....yang pentingnya dah tua pun. Like for the past 12 years we just celebrate secara kecil-kecilan jek. Dulu berdua sekarang bertiga. Memang lama tuh. Lama dah kami bercinta sebelum kahwin nasib jek tak boring..hikhik...So as usual the celebration consists of makan-makan and bagi hadiah. Oh on the eve of his birthday we went to watch National Treasure 2. Just the two of us. Yelah dah lama sangat tak pegi tengok wayang sejak ada anak ni so we decided that takpalah sempena his birthday ni kita pegilah enjoy skit tengok wayang. So esoknya on his birthday I surprised him with a birthday cake. Especially baked for him. No no no...not me. I dun even know how to make a simple cake let a birthday cake..sigh...tempah kat advisor. Chocolate moist cake. Sedapppp. Then lepas tu belanja hubby makan. Hehehe walaupun ini birthday dia but I make the choice. Ikutkan hubby ni dia nak makan benda-benda soup aje. His fav. But I said to him alah takkan birthday nak makan sup-sup jek so I decided to take him to Chili's at KLCC. So inilah makanan kami....

The famous Chili's!

Daughter's chicken crispers. Dia cuma makan fries jek. Rugi..rugi...

Hubby's main course..beef ribs and chicken combo. The ribs ulala so soft and tender..

And as usual..mushroom burger for me. So kenyang only finish separuh jek..

So last but not least my favourite meal of the day....dessert! But hubby ni plak bukanlah jenis orang yang makan banyak and bukannya jenis orang suka makan manis2 eventhough dia ni orang Terengganu. So he was not so excited about it. I was the one who insisted that we should have it and we could share. But unlike when I go out with my friends kita share and usual habis, (kan Syida..yam yam bila teringat Coast Mud Pie tuh) this time he only took the ice cream part just a bit and left me with the rest of it. Mana boleh habis lagipun it is not as tasty and delicious macam the brownies at Delicious tuh. Biasa je. The chocolate coating pun biasa je. So it cannot beat Delicious and my fav..The Coast!

Chocolate Brownies Sundae

And u know what I get for dear hubby? Tu bawah tu another book on golf. Last year pun sama. Bukannya apa dah banyak sangat birthdays that we have gone through together so dah banyak dah I bagi. Watches, perfumes, belts, wallets, shirts, shoes, sandals, and banyak lagi sampai dah kering idea. So I asked him what did he want. He said that he wanted a pair of Levi's 501. So pegilah the shop and takde plak yang dia suka. Then I asked him what else...he said kalau sandal pun oklah...so on the way nak cari kasut dia ternampak lak Kinokuniya so he said dia nak buku plak. So I said up to u its your birthday anyway. And mak memang suke dia beli buku jimat skit budget aku nih...heheheeh...so that was it but later dia demand nak CD Cromox plak because he said his gift was under budget so kenalah tambah skit. Oklah oklah...I'll look for it...bila gaji masuk ek...

The book for the birthday boy!

Lega!

Leganya hari ni. Remember I told u yesterday that I had to give talk....ya ya dah selesai dah. U know i still have the goosebumps before giving the talk. Even bukan setakat sebelum bagi talk that is on the day itself but semalaman and the day before pun. Nervous bangat ba. Tadi bila sampai kat tempat tu nak jalan ke the class pun aramak bergetar lutut. Terpaksa stop tengah jalan...got to catch my breath dulu. Nak teruskan perjalanan tu fuh letih...lembik kepala lutut. Cam agar-agar. Alah berapa meter jek. Over gemuruh. My father said I ni banyak sangat darah gemuruh.

I went there early. Sampai 45mins before start. Saja nak relekkan diri. Nasib baik jumpa banyak familiar faces so my nervousness tu slowly subsidelah. But still damn nervous. But at the end of the day I think everything went well. I thinklah....dunno their feedback. Syok gak bagi talk ni. Share your knowledge with others banyak dapat pahala. But the part about being very nervous tu...emmm...I dont likeeee....

So hari ni kene stayback sampai malam. Not that I want to but have to. My duty maa. Hemmmm hope malam ni ada client...hikhik..not like u think...:). Tomorrow Friday....makan kat mana ek....maybe somewhere yang tak mahal but sedap...hujung-hujung bulan ni paham-paham jelah. Ok adios.

Caiyo! Caiyo! Caiyo!.....to me.....

Semalam I tought my daughter on how to balance. Every evening balik je keje i would bring my daughter to the playground. Dia mesti nak naik slide, swing. And as usual macam tulah hari-hari if I can get home early. So yesterday lepas main semua tu and on the way masuk rumah lalulah kat tengah-tengah rumah and ada this one place well its actually macam satu square tau and kat keliling dia ada wall yang pendek. So I asked my daughter to climb on it and walk. Kena belajar balancelah dia. Alamak cute gile bila dia jalan tu macam humpty dumpty. Totet totet and tell u the truth dapat gak I sit on it dan rehat...hehehehe..bad kan? Well penat tau because at the playground I had to keep a close eye on her every move, watch her every step and make sure that no mosquittoes came near her. Bukannya apa with all those bad things that happen nowdays it doesnt hurt to be extra careful. With so many missing children, penyakit-penyakit yang macam-macam...it doesnt look safe anymore to let your children wander or play unattended. Scary kan. The world is no longer safe anymore....

Well today keje kurang and tomorrow I had to give talk...berkenaan kanak-kanak gak. Nervous ba. Its not my first time tapi still damn nervous. Preparation pasal the presentation dah siap cuma have to read sikit-sikit takut kang gagap. Wish me luck!!!!

Ha btw if u notice I have included videos cerita Hana Yori Donga. Its actually a Japanese version of Meteor Garden. Cool gak. But the actors are not as handsome as the Meteor Garden. Feel free to watch it coz its good and entertaining...well I've even have the collection. Dia lebih baru dari MG. Dunno whether dah shown kat sini. Hana Yori Donga part 2 awal 2007 cerita dia shoot. So it should be out in the middle of 2007 and should sampai here end of last year. Anyway tengoklah...

Renjis-Renjis dipilis

Not too late to wish Selamat Menyambut Awal Muharam! Semoga di Tahun Baru ini kita akan menjadi umat Islam yang lebih baik. So anyway back to my stories. Last Saturday i had attended my bestfriend's bro's wedding at Dewan Perdana Felda. Sebenarnya me and my bestfriend ni...Farah...had been friends lama dah. Since primary school. So during secondary school she attended anor school and I was in anor. But throughout the years we remain best friends eventhough we hardly have anything in common (betul tak farah)...,we hardly have mutual friends except those in primary schools. Tapi what kept our friendship strong is we are there for each other when one's in need. We even have a song. Scorpian lagi. Still loving you. The lyrics takde kena mengena tau. Cuma at that time when the song was played we suka sangat and decided that it would be our song. So sebab itulah we are still the bestest of friend. Anyway pasal the bro dulu me and farah we had a habit of talking on the phone almost everyday emm memang everyday pun and tak kira masa. kejap-kejap if ada anything je call sampai penah skali tu kena groundedlah takleh cakap phone coz the bill went too high and my maths result dropped. So during our conversation her brother fairuz ni memang suka kacau. Kejap-kejap she had to hang up the phone to gaduh with her brother first. And when I went to her house memanglah selalu kena kacau dengan adik dia ni. So my friendship with Farah bukan hanya dengan dia saja but with her family as well and vice versa. Farah pun penah gak ada scandal with my cousin dulu hehehehe...so that shows how close we are.

Sooooo I attended his wedding...how he had grown...from an annoying little brat to a handsome man. Sebelum I continue, I just would like to wish 'Selamat Pengantin Baru buat Fairuz and Hanim and semoga berkekalan hingga ke akhir hayat'....and thank you for playing the 'Someday' song. Soooo hopelessly romantic.

It was a lavish wedding.The food was delicious even hubby had second serving. The music was fantastic and the bride and groom cantik sangat and sooooo sweet...

Bride and groom (Hanim and Fairuz)

Farah and daughter (Tasnim)

Nasi tomato, sambal udang, kari ayam, rendang daging, acar and japanese tofu

Dessert - tapai with ice cream..yummy

Gift from the host - scented candle

Anyway last Thursday during the holiday, i had to work. So who said keje gomen ni senang. I had to work on holidays but mana ada dapat extra income unlike private sector. Semua ni pengorbanan. Tapi itupun certain people kutuk. Yelah orang taktau boleh cakap macam-macam. Whatever it is we have to saling hormat menghormatilah with each other. Barulah aman dunia. Jadi hari tu hubby takada as usual pegi 'menebas', fama pun had lunch somewhere therefore sianlah kat si kechik coz nobody will be at home except for the maid. So I decided to take her with me. And the maid. But siannyer coz when I'm working I had to do it elsewhere and tinggallah the two of them in my room. Lama juga around 3 hours. So by the time I finished, it was noon already and my stomach pun dah started to sing. And apalagi pegi makanlah. Unfortunately since I am bad with direction and the only place I can remember yang dekat ngan office yang boleh makan is Damazlah. So bawaklah they all there and we had lunch at Penang Village. My maid was so seronok coz where I took her was restaurant yang bestlah kot...to her...siap makan prawn mee dengan enak sekali. Daughter had nasi tomato while I had cee cau fan (emm..salah ejala). Oklah. Dia opposite The Coast. Remember the pic i took from the Coast? After fulfilling my hunger jalan-jalanlah skit. Then I saw this shoe. To me cantiklah even Syida pun nearly buy the shoe when we went there for lunch last Friday. But tak jadi coz she said takut sakit kaki. So I bought it. Niat nak pakai to the weddinglah nak match with my dinner bag. Memang ulala. Tinggi giler. I think 2 and a half inch? Or tinggi lagi. But wow rasa best jek when I wore it. Sakit sikit je Syida but the satisfaction lebih lagi. Beli jangan tak beli.

The shoe!!!!

So there goes my last week...not the 'last' I hope...hehehe. This weekend will be my dearest hubby's birthday. Dunno what I should get him. Golfer thingy? Nah...emm maybe a pair of jeans? Hemmm susahnya for man. Hope can get the idea before Sunday. Cyiao.

Happy New Year!!!

I guess its not too late to wish a very Happy New Year to all my friends and family. Semoga tahun ni dipenuhi dengan the execution of all the resolutions. My new year resolution? Hem...nak diet, diet and diet and nak go for holiday!!!! Rasanya yang first tu macam susah jek but the second one tu insyallah berjaya. Caiyo!Caiyo!

Back to my life. As usual last Friday went out for lunch kat luar lagi with Syida. We went to the Coast again. Teringin nak makan Coast Mud Pie tu and lunch there was cheap. So bila sampai tu mata terus cari Coast Mud Pie but they covered the menu. Sedihnya ingatkan dah tak jual lagi rupanya ada cuma they all baru masak. So if dah freeze then bolehlah order. Anddddd our luck dah beku pun so dapatlah we all makan. Memang sedap bangat. Chocolate dia sweet but not so sweet and neither bitter. Just nice. That's what i like about it. But as usual sharelah kan sebab we are on diet ok. Stiil got to enjoy the food but not too much...chewahhh...and our main course would be....

This was mine. Seafood spaggetthi (betul ke eja..I'm so bad at spelling). Ada crab cake, prawns and mussels (again betul ke eja?). Quite nice. Rasa macam makan mee tomyam cuma guna spaggetthi and the kuah is a bit pekat.

This was what Syida had. Chicken pita and fries. Memang sedap. The chicken was crispy indeed. Bila makan bunyi krap krap...hehehee...got to use the traditional way. Makan ngan tanganlah baru best rather than using fork and knife..kan Syida kan kan...

If u want to know mana exactly the location of the Coast ni dia kat Plaza Damaz, ground floor opposite Penang Village.

Ini adalah our position from our table mengadap Pinang Village. Nice huh....and that was our ice lemon tea waiting for us to sip and enjoyyyyyy...nice eh....

So that was my lunch last Friday. On Sunday plak I had a breakfast date with two of my very good buddy masa kat uni dulu. Nomy and Juita. Actually the breakfast ni kira macam ritual between me and Nomy. Juit ni sibuk sangat tu yang baru dapat jumpa tu. Saja je had breakfast together gether. Sebab other time we are all too busy with work and families. So breakfast was the only time we can catch up, gossips and chit chatting. Most of my good friends duduk kat same area so tu yang senang nak jumpa tu macam Nomy, Juit, Farah, Ira...and Eena (coming soon) semuanya duk kat area yang sama. Dulu even penah jadi neighbour ngan Nomy...hehehehe....that's why I love my town coz di situlah my parents and my friends and tempat I dibesarkan.

Nomy (left) and Juita (right)

I had soto, Nomy had a bit of fried beehoon, a bit of nasi goreng (makanan kegemaran...) and fried spicy kentang goreng. Juit had mee kari. Thanks sebab belanja Juit..hehehe..lain kali blanja lagi ok. Btw thanks Syahrin blanja kat Deliciouss that day...u are delicious yourself...hehehehe...So balik Nomy had to send me home...hubby off to outstation lagi...hem...busy betul mamat nih...nyampah (marah-marah sayang gitu..awww).

So what was your resolution this year. Apa-apa pun let us first execute apa-apa yang belum diexecute kan sebelum we make a new one. Like zen saying 'Move and the way will open'.

Oh one more thing selamat pengantin baru Tuya...sori tak dapat datang coz hubby not around. And selamat pengantin baru Fairuz..nanti akak will post your wedding here.

Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

Just got back from Sabah. Cuti-cuti Malaysia. Actually hubby had to attend a meeting and few site visits so being a very loyal wife kenalah ikut...hehehe...(memang nak ikut pun).

Day 1

Bertolak to Sabah dengan Air Asia. U know ramai betul orang nak pegi KK that day. Have u ever heard of Xpress boarding? We have to pay like RM20 per person so that we could board the plane earlier than others without having to line up and rebut-rebut. But kami ni ingat well since we have small child with us so takyahlah coz kita memang boleh naik awal punya. Unfortunately sekarang ni policy Air Asia bukan cam dulu lagi. If u want to naik early then u pay. U know even hubby got to pay RM30 for his golf set. Teruk betul Air Asia ni. Telan duit orang. So I yang dukung anak ni pun have to berlari-lari. Nak dapat a good seatlah. Sebab hubby cakap cari sebelah kiri to get a good view when we reached KK. Hubby ni his sense of direction memang hebat. He knew mana seat yang nampak view, yang mana yang panas, sejuk, sunset, sunrise...gua salute u darling. And manage to get good seat.

So we reached KK about noon. Was picked up by Mr Yusuf (hubby's good friend). Checked in at Radius Hotel. Hotel tu kan is a new hotel atas a new shopping complex..Warisan Square. Very strategic. Dekat dengan Pasar Filipina...hehehe..itu yang penting tu. And dekat nak makan. But what shocked me most was the airport..Terminal 2...wow cantik dah. Macam kat Langkawi. And bila touched down tu entahlah rasa emotional plak. Memanglah I'm not Sabahan tapi rasa seronok to be back. My daughter is a Sabahan. So kira dia balik kampunglah. Entahlah one day rasa macam nak kerja balik kat sana. Best tau Sabah ni even my good friends pun orang-orang Sabah.

Anyway...back to the hotel...masuk-masuk bilik je mak oiiii...comel. Ye comel. Like I told u kan I am a very particular person. So I expect bilik besar and best but ni..hem..comel. Tapi very very hi tech and modern. LCD tv tu, wireless internet and the shower sangat canggih even I had problem to operate it. Hubby cakap jakun to me...hem memang canggih. Water came out like from everywhere...up down..hehehe..

Ni view KK from my room..depan tu Pulau Gaya

Hubby and daughter..tu katil dia

Ni toilet..can see the bedroom tau..see through toilet

So petang tu hubby got to attend meeting. And I am meeting Reen, a really good friend. Seronok coz lama tak jumpa. Dulu masa duduk Sabah she was like a family. Yelah kita takde family kat sana so kawan-kawanlah family kita. Really had good time and miss my friends there very very much. Reen came to my room. Dia pun very impress with the shower...i told u so...then kita orang pegi makan kat Starbucks. I had Frapuccino Toffe nut and a strawberry muffin while Reen had Frapuccino Chocolate Chip and cheese cake. We gossip, talk and catch up. Seronok sangat sampai hubby balik pun tak sedar. Oh btw the shop was just below my room...kan best tu.

My drinks

Above..my Frapuccino and my good buddy with her cheesecake..

Malam tu kami and hubby's friends pegi makan di Anjung Selera kat Likas. Sebenarnya masa duduk KK dulu memang kami suka sangat makan kat situ sebab kepak ayam dia sedap. Tu yang malam tu pegi sana. Hemmm sedap sangat. Lepas dari kempunan kepak ayam...yam yam..

Day 2

Pagi went for breakfast with Yusuf, wife and son. Kami pegi makan kat kedai kak Nong. Well situ yang best roti dia. Very freshly baked. I ate nasi lemak and makan kuih-kuih situ. Roti dia take awy for lunch..diet beb...

Above..kuih Angkoon tausa and kelapa and also kuih labuh (actually kuih labu..hehehe)

Tengahari hubby ada kerja..so duduklah kat bilik ngan anak. Gaduh jelah ngan dia. But later that evening Yusuf's wife..Aza came with her son and we had tea kat Kopitiam..just below our room. Actually she is my friend jugak so oklah. So taklah boring. Malam plak tak pegi mana-mana. Hubby ordered pizza and starbucks..my fav..sebab nak tengok SEHATI BERDANSA finale..seronok sangat sebab V and Shidee menang..

Day 3

Hari ni hari berjalan and bershopping. Actually kami ni dah masak sangat ngan KK. So taktau nak pegi mana. So just pegi tengok umah lama, tempat-tempat yang pernah mengusik jiwa..ewah...pegi Pasar Filipina shopping skit dan pusing-pusing KK. Bukan apa dulu masa dok sini ramai kengkawan datang so we had to be their tourist guide. So habis satu KK kami dah khatam. Jadi there's nothing more to see..cuma round round tengok tempat lamalah.

Petang tu we went to Pantai Tanjung Aru. Seronok tengok sunset. U know ada beza dengan beach kat sini and Terengganu. Dekat KK people are more relax and carefree. We could see alot of beach activities here such as people swimming, people throwing frisbee (betul ke eja), building sand castle and lepaking dan macam-macamlah. Sedangkan kat Terengganu people are more reserve. Bila pegi pantai u can only see orang makan sotong etc and main kite. Tak begitu carefree. Maybe because of the culture. I like Sabah better sebab u feel more relax. Siap ada background music tuh lagu 80s. Woo so hopelessly romantic tau sambil tengok sunset. So gorgeous...itulah ciptaan yang Maha esa..

Last Day

Last day was filled with sadness coz i am about to leave one of my favourite place. But all good things will come to an end. Jadiknya ku habiskan masa dengan shopping and lunch with friends. Our flight was delayed. Reached KL before the clock strikes 12. Jadi sempatlah ber new year di KL...ya as if I care....

New airport terminal..

View dari tingkap plane..bye bye KK..until we meet again....

Deliciousssss

Last week before the year end, me and a couple of good friends went to Delicious at Bangsar Shopping Village for lunch. Saje je coz Syarin wanted to have the Delicious brownies tu. Dah ngidam sangat...hehe...so off we went. Sampai-sampai looked at the menu...cannot decide...bukan apa sebab banyak sangat makanan yang sedap-sedap sampaikan rambang mata. So at the end of the day these were what we ordered...

Quiche Lorraine with beef bacon. This was was Syarin had. Rasanya a bit creamy. Syarin said she knows how to cook it. Minah ni memang pandai masak western food ni. Just name it and she's the person.

Ni Syida punyerr..as usual Minah ni makan fish. Smoke salmon with sour cream and capeus on toasted multigrain. emmm i think it must be good coz habis licin beb. Tak rasa sebab sibuk nak makan.

After much much thought this was what Azniza ordered. Carbonara Spaghettini. Before she ordered I told her yang the dish memang Delicious but banyak sangat and later u muak and u won't be able to finish it. She didn't hear me and bila dah makan memang rasa nak muak sangat. Sampai she had to chew the lemon to dismiss the taste. Sedap tu memanglah sedap but dia rasa muak bila dah terlalu banyak. So moral of the story if u ever want to order this make sure you share it with your friends. That way u can still enjoy it.

Jeng jeng jeng...inilah my lunch. Cheeseburger and fries. Soooo damn fattening and so so sinful. Menyesal mak makan. But sedap tau. U know the burger tu so pure. Maknanya the meat tu rasa sangat. its like meat without kanji ke or tepung ke...burger yang memang meat saja...tebal gitu. So juicy and so Deliciousssss.

Last but not least our favourite meal of the day...dessert..always. Well our main purpose of going to Delicious was to eat the chocolate brownies but we also ordered one more dessert. Memang sedap. I think better than the brownies.

Chocolicious sundae with fresh strawberry. Hem...the taste...between heaven and earth...so yummy, creamy and so sedap!!!! But I like the mud pie best.

Chocolate brownies with chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream.

So that was our lunch. Nice. Hope that we can do that again fren. Looking forward to that again.
