Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!

Selamat Hari Raya uols...!!!! Dah lebih kurang 2 weeks kita beraya. Hows your raya? Hope it was better than mine. Mine tak berapa best coz my kids were down with fever and that include muself as well. This year raya we went back to hubby's kampung. We went back a good 5 days before raya. Sian kat hubby coz last year dia tak berpuasa kat kg dia, and since this year I banyak cuti yg nak dihabiskan, so decided that baliklah kg dia awal. I took 2 weeks leave, with the intention of a week in his kg and another week beraya kat my so called kg. Cuaca in Terengganu berubah-ubah. One day sejuk, the other sangat panas. I was extremely tired with the changing weather and also my youngest yang so so cranky. tetibalah pulak tak nak kat orang. Asyik jerit and nangis je. Nasib baiklah the sister was so independent. Dia berkawan and main without disturbing us too much. I was excited nak celebrate raya. Even brought with me like 5 pasang baju raya coz every year beraya pagi petang and i do not want to wear baju yg peluh to raya in the evening kan. Tapi hem semuanya tak terpakai. on the eve of raya, my son started to have fever. He was so hot. I had to care for him during night coz takut his fever panas sangat. Tido tak cukup. Pagi raya he was very cranky, and still burning. Nak ambik gambar pun tak da mood coz he was soooo cranky. So after salam salaman, we decided to take him to the doctor. Sebelum ni dah pi but the doc just gave paracetamol. I think he needs antibiotic. So carilah klinik and langsung takda yang bukak okeh. Isk geram betul, the baby was crying and not a single clinic was open. At last we decided to go to the specialist hospital. Since it was the only one opened. Sampai ramai orang okey...semua berbaju raya. So we got to see the doc and luckily he was a good one. But got to pay like RM150. Baby was getting better after taking the ubat. I was happy. Sampai malam dia ok. So esok bolehlah beraya. So came the 2nd day raya. Baby was healthy, kakak ceria. Went to hubby's sis house. Then went to his aunt's house. Bila nak balik tu kakak started to get cranky. pegang2 mak oii panasnyer. Hem terbantut nak beraya. Balik terus. So petang nasib my eldest ok so dapatla pi beraya. But malam dia demam balik. Esok tu dah nak balik. We decided to rest kat Awana Kijal since kakak was so excited to play by the beach. She was getting better but malam panas jugak. 3rd day raya, kakak was ok but i pulak yg rasa sangat tak sedap badan. Demam...hem...lepas sorang2. Masa tu fikir nak balik KL sangat2 tapi parents went back to Kedah. Got to wait for another day before balik kl. Nasib bailah on the way back to KL semua dah sihat. And I was super excited nak beraya ngan my parents pulak and to eat ketupat rendang...yummy...but raya was just like that...next year hope will be better and gonna be my turn pulak beraya. All smiles...

Beef wrap

Waaa mana tah gambar lagi satu beef wrap nih...Beef wrap was the starter and I would say it was so amazingly delicious...ada rasa cheesy cheesy skit...darn...the pic was all deleted....well tulah...

Hubby was craving....

Beef it Up! Voila! Hubby was craving meat. Really really craving. Lagi teruk dari orang mengandung. Since last weekend he has been pestering me to go to this place 'Las Vacas'. This kedai ada steak and dia kata sedap bangat. He has been looking at i dunno what yg made him craved like that. So we decided since we haven't went out berdua for berbuka, nak pi sanalah for lating lating. I think I remembered this place from Jalan2 Cari Makan. He picked me up from work early. We reached Mont Kiara quite early. Having perform Asar prayer, hubby and I went straight to the Restaurant. We have made reservation...sampai the Restaurant was practically empty. cam segan nak masuklah kan even though dah 630. Tapi I told hubby we better go in because they may need time to cook our food. This Las Vacas served mainly meat product..they have sirloin steak, rib eye...beef burger, hot dogs...and even frozen meats. So we ordered rib eye steak, well done for hubby, beef burger for me, beef wrap for starter and mushroom soup. Ice peach tea and apple peach juice for drinks. The food was served 5 minutes before berbuka and the restaurant started to fill up by then although not full house. The waitress can speak Malay, Japanese and English. I don't think she's Malaysian. I think she is Japanese. I think most of the workers are Japanese. Except the owner. They cater for Japanese customer quite a lot as the menu board was in Japanese as well. oh they don't have desserts..huhu..but Baskin Robin kat sebelah jek. So oklah. Btw the price of the meat was based on the grams. Similar to my burger. A 150grams beef burger would cost u RM17. Overall I would say that people who loves meat this is the place for you. But for those yg macam saya yg suka variety kind of food tak sesuailah tempat ni. But hubby was totally satisfied. Licin semua dia makan...

Table kat dalam tak banyak but kat luar quite alot. According to the owner they can cater for like 70 pax at one time.

Air pun dijual in bottles and tins. Sedap jugak

Soup of the day...so so lah...in a small cup that costs around RM5.50. Reasonably cheap

Nilah makanan hubby...rib eye...tebal tender and sedap. No gravy was included. You have to enjoy the meat as it is..and totally true. This costs hubby like RM60++but really worth it.

My burger...biasalah burger macam tulah...but let me tell u it was huge okeh

Merdeka!

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka! Selamat hari Merdeka yang ke 53 Malaysia! So yesterday was Malaysia's 53th Independence Day. Being an over joy citizen, the hubby decided to take the lil one to celebrate the Merdeka day at Stadium Bukit Jalil. The husband said since its gonna be held at the stdium, ada aircond, and tertutp, we should take the lil one to witness herself the Merdeka celebration. She was very excited at the thought of waving the Jalur Gemilang and watching the parade as we told her. So off we're to the stadium around 730. The event would be starting at 730 am! Hubby kata there wont be a lot of people so lambat pun takpa. Bila sampai we had to park cam jauh jugaklah....yeah right kan takde org. pastu sampai stadium we to like 100th time circle the whole of the stadium sebab nak cari tempat duduk. It was packed okey...but not with us public tapi the participants and yg kena paksa pegi tu. hangin tul...mana public nak duduk kan. But at last we managed to squeeze ourselves dengan the defence atache...hehehe macam tau tau pulak aku ni anak bekas askar. SO the lil one got to enjoy the show. Oklah but I think the meaning of Merdeka tu tak sampailah. More kepada hiburan jugak. I think lepas ni the organizer should buat something yang bole diinstillkan dalam pemikiran remaja2...bukan hanya untuk berhibur. We have to know our history before condemning today and change the future. Terlebey sudah kan...

So bawah are the pics taken...ada lights show...entahla apa significant dengan hari kemerdekaan tah...

Gathering MRSM TDK

Hari Sabtu pulak berbuka puasa ngan the MRSM mates. We had our berbuka kat Aidil's restoren. Restoren Sambal Hijau@Sg. Penchala. 15 hinggit je sorang and kids below 7 can eat for free. Makan berhidang and taklah berebut ambik buffet unlike last year. Lauk pauk best giler...ada ayam goreng rempah, daging salai masak lemak, ikan patin masak tempoyak, ulam-ulaman, tempe dan ikan bilis sambal, sayur2, dessert ada coconut jelly, jelly 3 colour, dan bubur kacang. Excellant...semua yg kampung2 nyer menu....ramai jugak yg datang but the girls' turnout sikit je. But tak kisah sangat coz memang dari dulu baik ngan my batch tak kisahlah lelaki ke perempuan. And yg best tak perlu risau pasal hubby coz he knew half of my friends there...kenal masa belajar jugak. So oklah. We had a great time cuma tak puas nak borak. Hubby nak balik awal nak tgk Arsenal. Yang penting enjoy betut. Next year same place again ye Aidil.

Berbuka Puasa Lagi

Last Friday, I had berbuka puasa@juit's place with nomy, and kak pah. Potlucklah kiranya. Nomyla kaplanya. At first i tot i couldnt make it sebab kerjakan and to travel to ampang on Friday evening mcm nak bunuh dirilah kan. But fortunately hubby was on leave due to Nuzul Quran, so he managed to pick me up from the office at 4.30. We reached Ampang around 530 and that left us ample time to be at the gathering. It was a small gathering tapi best because we dont have to worry about our partners well-being. Ni semua kawan2. Me and the gals of course friends sebab we were classmates. While hubby memanglah pun kawan dengan their hubbies, kenal masa belajar gak...ya ya...kami semua kawen ngan university sweethearts...hahahaha...so while the men were talking bout thier interest, kami the ladies gossiping sambil makan ketam yg dimasak oleh juit. Bestnya....Well juit as the host prepared nasi (0f course), air, chily crab (sedapnyaaaaaa!!!!), daging black pepper, japannese tofu and air. Nomy pulak bawak goreng chempedak (my fav), and sambal petai udang. Kak Pah bawak shepard's pie and tiramisu cake which she did it all by herself. She is one great cook. Nanti jangan lupa kak pah janji nak masakkan salted egg crab kay. And as for me , bawak big apple dan kepak ayam jelah.

Masih teringat2 lagi ketam tu. Nomy siap tolong kopekkan bahagian claws for me...yelah never in my life I was that rajin to kopek kat bahagian claws dia but since nomy tolong, barula dapat makan and sedap sebab isi tang tu banyak. Marvelous...geng lain kali kita buat lagi yer...so enjoylah the food.

Banyaknya salah!!!!!!

Semasa sesi memanaskan minda sebelum bekerja, i browse my blog dulu sebab nak tgk post kat Teluk Intan. Tetiba teringat masa zaman sana. Oh its not that I want to go back even though banyak gak good memories tapi saja je teringat. So sambil tu bacalah post2 lama. Bila baca rasa tergelak sorang2 coz banyaknya grammar mistakeslah, spelling mistakeslah..dan macam2lah...hahahaha...mesti ada yang baca kata Ya Allah teruknya English minah ni. Frankly speaking my english so so aje but I am quite particular with grammar and benda2 tu tapi bila idea tu mencurah2 terus jelah tulis and then post. I am the type of person yang kurang check skit tu yg SPM biasa2 je sebab lepas habis exam terus nak hantar. Its like 'I cant go back to the things I did coz I might change my mind'...that is....so...my apologize for my bad english...ya I do have a friend who will comment on my bad writing...but i dont mind...if its good for me then do as u wish. But I also like to quote what Syida's wrote on her blog....sorry Syida aku amik kata2 kau...'Suka hatilah blog aku, aku punya english tunggang langgang pun'..even though not in the exact words tapi the meaning tu ada kan. Hehehehe...this entry doesn't mean any harm pun...saja je sessi memanaskan badan before getting on with my priority. Until I see u in my next posting.

Berbuka@chilis pt 2

My frappucino of course

The berbuka foods

So thats about it. Sedapnya di bulan2 pose. This week is a busy week for me. I would call it minggu berbuka with friends...tomorrow pot luck at Juit's which I will later update and on Saturday berbuka with my MRSM mates and I will also update. Cuma sedey coz had to turn down berbuka with the St. Mary's friends...coz coincide pulak dengan MRSM which I had confirmed earlier. Sorry gals next time..raya perhaps? Assalamualaikum.

Berbuka@chilis

Yesterday my friends and I had our iftar at Chilis, Empire. Well that was our first outing for berbuka after all the years we've been friends. Selalunya we were quite bz but this year we have managed to make ourself available...hehehe..even me yang still and will have to abide by curfew. Gelaklah..true I still have curfew imposed by my dahling hubbylah. Tapi tak kisahlah janji dapat keluar and he picked me up.

Actually ada ambik beberapa gambar tapi ada problem sikit which I am trying to solve. So maybe the pics will be uploaded in the next post. Ok berbalik kepada yesterday punya event, we went to Chilies after work. Sampai quite early jugak. So two of my friends went to Whisk to buy macaroon and red velvet cake for dessert later. Then we headed to Chilies and ordered lamb shoulders and burgers. The foods were ok...but the lamb shoulder tu not as juicy as the one I had masa kat 1 Utama. It was dry and a bit liat. Sakit tangan kay nak potong but the mashed potatoes sangatlah sedap. Syahrin had mushroom burger, Syida oltimer burger and emi lamb shoulder jugak. Lepas makan my friends ajak pi pekena coffe dulu and we decided to pi Starbucks pulak sebab macaroon and cake tu pun belum makan. Syahrin ordered latte sama ngan syida, emi hot chocolate and as for me, my favourite caramel frappucino with whipped cream. Sambil2 ngumpat hehehee makan macaroon and the marvelous red velvet cake. Sedap umang aiiii.....

Hem I wish I could upload the pics minus my mukalah coz hudus...tak suke tak suke.....akan cuba lagi jap lagi. Ok kena pen off dulu sbb kena tumpukan pada my priority jap. Adios!

Ello World!

So what do you think of the new blog design? Ok or Ko....? I hope it's ok...well to my eyes its oklah...just click here and there to prepare myself as a good teacher to a friend of mine. My friend is going off to UK soon for like 4 years. So she has asked me to teach her about blogging coz she's going to start her own blog soon. Well its interesting when u are across the ocean and u want people to know about your well being and etc etc...and to kill time too of course...right friend? So being such a nice and wonderful friend hehehehe...I am going to teach her a thing or two about the blogging world....(macamlah terrer sangat kan)...tapi do not want to drop my water facelah kan...hehehe anyway that's for later. As for now, my life is just like that. Ok I suppose. Work wise I am doing ok. Not so stressful and personal life pun ok.

Anyway Happy Ramadhan people! Its been quite sometime since I last updated this blog of mine. First let me update bout myself. These few months I've been busy with the gym class...wah terlebih sudah kan...macam bagus je. I've attended an all ladies gym near my house. The equipments tu taklah banyak sangat but the classes are pretty cool. They've got yoga class, kick boxing (recently), aerobic classes and belly dancing. My fav is the yoga class. Can u believe it or not? To tell u the truth i am far from being flexible. Either my legs are too long or my arms are too short. But lately I've gained the flexibility. I managed to touch my toes, half of split, bend backwards and banyak lagi. Its so difficult in the beginning. I think at first I was the only one in class who look so keras. Tapi as time goes by...bolehlah bend sana and bend sini. Even I have moved into the intermediate level...hahahaha...macam bagus jekan. And look at the sweats...my God...macam air terjun and lebih hebat dari buat aerobic. So u may want to ask...kuruskah diri ini...entahlah...timbang berat taklah banyak berubah tapi rasa badan taklah flabby sangat lagi. As my bff said..maybe my weight tak reduce lagi coz the fat has turned into muscles...I hope u are right friend. And so I have been attending these clases for like 3 months plus and I have to stop during Ramadhan. Well mana larat mak nak continue. But definitely after raya I am gonna get my ass back on track...hahaha..gotta burn all the extra fats yang terkumpul masa raya. All in all i really enjoy myself. And made new friends as well.

Ok next story...my second child...Sulaimi will be 8 months in 3 days. How time flies. Now he has started to crawl on his tummy and not yet on four. I think he really is following the steps...unlike his sister who skipped the crawling part...terus je jalan. My boy is a handsome baby..(biasalah mak sendiri kena puji-bak kata orang Sabah 'mintak pujik saja'). His face tak cute tapi handsome (hardly dengar org kat cumel tapi handsome-entahla). He is on the dark side and he loves quarelling with his sister. But I know he loves his sister very much as he loves watching the sister sings, dance...and he would laugh his heart out. Isk geramnyer..seronok bila balik kerja, walaupun penat tapi bila tengok muka anak terus tak penat lagi dah...mothers out there do feel the same kan. Hem....and sekarang mama dia dah rajin masak for baby...unlike dulu yang asyik beli instant jek. I've learnt my lesson oredy.

Apa lagi ye? I have bought tickets to my dream destination! Yey! Tapi segan nak cakap lagi until masanya tiba..which is lambat lagilah. Only those close to me knows (u know who are). Seghonok sangat. Mungkin ada yang kata why that place...i dont know myself....maybe too much of tv? hehehe...must be..tapi ada aku kisah, my moneylah kan...hehehe..harsh harsh...

Oklah today nak pi berbuka with my friends..i'll update later bout that. I'll be pro-active again...oh man..I am suppose to do something but then...hehehe. See ya later and selamat berbuka.

Online shopping

Dua tiga menjak ni kan macam dah suka sangat dengan online shopping. In just two weeks I have made two online shopping. The first was baby pouch and the second one was bumbo seat. I started shopping online during my pregnancy. I bought 2 dresses at that time. Lepas tu lama dah tak buat keje-keje macam ni. Yang jadi balik ni masa 2 weeks ago, I was watching Nasi Lemak Kopi O, ada tunjuk abaout baby pouches. Alah gendong budak ala-ala yang bibit Indon gendong babies dalam kain batik tu. My son tu suka duduk dalam gendong. Bila nak tido je kena bergendong. So bila tengok dekat tv ada macam cerita pasal baby puches ni, and dijual secara online, I terus surf the web. I was to look at babywearers.com. Pastu I came accross babyparadise.com. So jumpa lah the baby pouch. Terus order and a week later dah dapat. So the first time I used it masa bawak adik to his 3 months' injection. So I carried him in there. Wah semua org kat klinik tu macam tengok je. Yelah baby pouch ni still new kat sini and tak ramai orang pakai. Slalunya bibit2 je guna but now kita plak, so org tengok macam peliklah sikit and this is not the ordinary gendong kain batik tu, it's easier and lagi cantiklah. So my second buy was bumbo seat. It's a seat for babies...tengok kat kedai almost 2oo but when buying online murah jugak. Hemm syok betul, tottally satisfying.

Tulah pasal duit banyak habis kot situ. Nak beli untuk diri sendiri pun tebantut..hehehe...anak punya pasal. Seronok jugak online shopping ni. Hassle free and save time. Rasanya lepas ni banyak kalilah akan beronline shopping...vavavavooom

Adik first stroller ride

Two days ago hubby and I took our children to the park. Well its the hundreth for the eldest but the first for the youngest. I was extremely excited because bolehlah guna his stroller yg dah lama beli tu. He was super duper excited too but he maintaned his coolness by making a straight face. The moment I put adik inside the stroller dia macam nak kata "mama what the**7%%4# are u doing to me?" But I began to push the stroller he looked bewildered. Hahahaha...tomei tomei....his sister as usual dancing sini sana and laughed at her adik for looking so dumbfounded. It was one eventful day at the park and dapatlah jugak mengeluarkan peluh-peluh walaupun taklah berlari-lari kan. Below are the pics of adik in his stroller and his kakak..

Adik heran....

Muka papa=adik...fotostat

Kakak yang overly excited


sleepy....

drama queen

Yang bestnyer bila nak balik adik was crying because dia dah bosan duduk dalam stroller and kakak pulak take over duduk dalam stroller adik...aduhai.....dah terbalik pulak.....

Twilight Saga...

Nak cerita jugak pasal Twilight Saga....it is my new love. Macam mana boleh ter 'fall' in love? Well camni, masa nak bersalin hari tu or before bersalin, my second sis brought to my house the Twilight Saga books. Dia nak pass to my other sis. So I took one which was New Moon. The 2nd book. Masa tu tak baca lagi Twilight, the first book. Saja ambik sebab pikir kang masuk hospital boring2 boleh gak baca buku cerita. Tapi of course masa deliver before and after takde masa nak baca coz I was in so much pain. But after dah balik rumah and settle down, barula ada sedikit masa which was during my son bedtime. So bacala New Moon. OMG...immediately I fell in love dengan Edward Cullen. The main character, the vampire. I did watch Twilight so Robert Patterson to sooo good looking so I can imaginelah while reading the book. What made me fell in love with the books was Edward's character. The author potrayed him as a good vampire...his thirst for human's blood was overwhelming but he managed to control it. Now he only drank animal's blood...his fav, mountain lion. I love reading about his love for Bella Swan, a human. I think their love was greater than Romeo and Juliet and Shah Jahan and Mumtaz. He would do anything for the happiness of his love. But what really got me so into Edward was the power or gift that he has as a vampire. He can read people's mind, he's fast, strong and sooo good looking. That's my craziness for Twilight.

Oh the sequence of New Moon, Eclipse will be out in June. I've already asked Syida to go watch that movie together. Tamau tgk ngan encik awang sebab nanti tak dapat lovey dovey ngan edward cullen....dia tak faham. Nanti encik awang cepat bosang....tamau tamau spoil my mood.

2010

Lamanyer tak mengupdate blog ni. The last time masa bulan pose last year and tup tup dah masuk new year pulak. Anyway nak mengupdate kehidupan tahun baru ni....ok first and foremost, i've given birth to a handsome baby boy on the 28th December last year. We named him Adil Sulaimi. Adil dan Sejahtera. He came out through the 'window' and not the 'door'....hahaha...operatela apa lagi. Pintu tak bukak and he wont come down...that's why. Maybe belum masa ke but the doc insisted of me delivering that day because my old wound has started to thin out. And it hurts...and the new wound pun agak lambat nak heal. Ohhhh sakitnyer masa berpantang. Masa yang panjang berpantang telah kugunakan untuk membaca all 4 books of Twilight Saga. Jatuh cinta dah dengan Edward Cullen. Hes gonna be my all time fav vampire...(ya as if there're other vampires...oppsss ada Raja Wakarima a.k.a Tajul Zaman-Siong) but tak sehebat vampire omputih.

Isk enuffla bout that. So apa lagi. Ohh if God willing, i'll be pursuing my Master degree this year. Samada middle or end, tengok dulu. Sebelum start study, the JPA scholar need to undergo the QA course. 6 weeks but sangat2 menyeronokkan. First i tot it would be boring but sebenarnya it was loads of fun. I had fun knowing new people. They called me 'mama' coz i was so sarat at that time. Luckily I have 2 good friends yang slalu tolong me yang tak larat nih....

Apa lagi...ha, last week was my 6th anniversary. Initially hubby and I wanted to go holiday but due to unforseen circumstances we decided to celebrate here...in KL. Tengok Wayang cerita ALice in Wonderland in Gold Class cinema. First time...perak sikit. Its like boarding into the 1st class section on the plane. The seat was comfortable. We can order food while watching and food will be served to us. Boleh lepak in the private lounge before tengok wayang. Best. Next we went to Tony Romas for early dinner. Biasala bila ada anak kecik nak keluar lama-lama pun tak best. I had grilled salmon while hubby had ribeye steak. Pastu balikla. The next day still considering our anniversay, we took our eldest to watch Disney On Ice. It was fun and the little one was extremely happy and content. I'm happy too. It was a treat to the little one. It was a birthday gift plus a school holiday getaway. Did i mention she starts school already? Yap...dah mula sekola kat QDees dah early this year. Even though sejak masuk skola asik sakit je but she is doing well...

Oklah sampai sini dulu. Maklumla lama tak update so a bit beku otak. Hope 2010 will be a great year with less cabaran...Aminnnn
