Slipped Disk

2012-02-03T16:42:00.001+08:00

I just came back from hospital visiting SyikinBaik/SyikinUTP. She just had a surgery yesterday to remove the damaged disk. I remember she used to tell us bout her severe back pain after delivering her twins few years back. I thought everything has been okay. Suddenly last few days, she texted saying she was going to undergo a surgery the next day. huh

When I first learned about her pain a few years ago, I thought it was caused by her pregnancy, since she was pregnant with twins so I thought it might have strained her back or it might have caused by some household fall during teenage years.

I search the net and found this about Slipped disk or Prolapsed disk.

Understanding the back
The spine is made up of many bones called vertebrae. These are roughly circular and between each vertebra is a 'disc'. The discs are made of strong 'rubber-like' tissue which allows the spine to be fairly flexible. A disc has a stronger fibrous outer part, and a softer jelly-like middle part called the nucleus pulposus.
The spinal cord, which contains the nerves that come from the brain, is protected by the spine. Nerves from the spinal cord come out from between the vertebrae to take and receive messages to various parts of the body.
Strong ligaments attach to the vertebrae. These give extra support and strength to the spine. Various muscles also surround, and are attached to, various parts of the spine. (The muscles and ligaments are not shown in the diagram below for clarity.)

What is a prolapsed disc?

When you have a prolapsed disc (commonly called a 'slipped disc'), a disc does not actually 'slip'. What happens is that part of the inner softer part of the disc (the nucleus pulposus) bulges out (herniates) through a weakness in the outer part of the disc. A prolapsed disc is sometimes called a herniated disc. The bulging disc may press on nearby structures such as a nerve coming from the spinal cord. Some inflammation also develops around the prolapsed part of the disc.
Any disc in the spine can prolapse. However, most prolapsed discs occur in the lumbar part of the spine (lower back). The size of the prolapse can vary. As a rule, the larger the prolapse, the more severe the symptoms are likely to be.

http://www.patient.co.uk/health/Prolapsed-Disc-(Slipped-Disc).htm

And slipped disk often cause a sudden back pain.and in Syikin case it was actually sudden. According to her story, she was in Kedah on his way to Perlis for work and suddenly she woke up in the morning and cannot walk. She felt pain at her leg, pin and needles, numbness in her buttocks to the toes.

Do not panic yet guys, not all back pain are cause by slipped disk. Most of the time back pain was cause by minor problem of muscle or ligament. 1 out of 20 cases of back pain is cause by slipped disk. And according to the site, slipped this are common among male than female and of the 30 to 50 years old.

What I learned from the site, not all cases of slipped disk needed surgery. Most of the time the symptoms will get better in a few weeks and the condition will improve (with help of painkiller I supposed) with some exercise and keep active.

Why syikin need surgery?
Among the symptom that she had (from what she told us la) when she was having pain from her legs and numbness, she also was unable to pass urine (problems with bowel and bladder function) and this was considered emergency since the maybe the nerve at the lower spinal was pressed on by the swollen disk. So the surgery was to remove(cut out? I don't know doctors term) of the prolapsed this to prevent it from permanently damaging the nerve that control bowel and bladder function.

Well, let's pray for Syikin quick recovery and hope for a better health for us all.

Owh it is already February. how fast time flies. and I can't even complete the photo challenge hahaha... and now the February challenge already up on http://www.fatmumslim.com.au/2012/01/february-photo-day-kicks-off-tomorrow.html

I would say this month and January are months with the most public holiday of the year perhaps. Since my husband and I didn't have the chance to go for holiday at end of last year so we decided to go to Port Dickson last weekend, took 2 days leave and manage to stay there till tuesday. Fun. We introduced Irfan to swimming. in the pool and at the beach. He just love it. Everytime the waves come , he will say "Bubbles!!" and giggles. hehehe. He also asked me to put it back if I pick any shell or the small crabs. Pejuang alam sekitar ke takut anak i ni. huhu

And what I love the most is the privacy. Since it was out of the peak season, not a school holiday so there is almost no one there except us. We had the pool just for us most of the time. Huhu.. Tak malu lah I nak berenang ala-ala dugong gitu. huhu.

And back in the office today I was so lemau since tommorow is the last day of work then a long weekend again huhu.

the christmas break

2011-12-27T16:27:00.001+08:00

Yesterday was one of the happiest day...although I was exhausted until today. Why? I got to spent the whole day with my family..

Saya tidak tahu mengapa tapi weekend lalu, saya begitu penat terasa. Mungkin kelesuan tidak mampu tidur lena and nervous apabila anakanda kesayangan demam. Sungguh saya amat nervous bila dia demam. Risau his fit berulang lagi. Sabtu dan ahad saya akan tertidur apabila Irfan tidur. Owh saya tidak sampai hati mahu tidur jika Irfan hendak bermain-main terutama hari minggu. Bersalah rasanya. Sudahlah hari kerja ditinggalkan dengan pembantu. Hari minggu biarlah Irfan dengan saya. Sebab itu saya minta maaf kalau ada undangan gathering2 atau sewaktu dengannya yang saya tidak mampu penuhi.

Saya memang kalah dengan budak kecik itu. Tidak sampai hati tidak memenuhi kemahuannya. Alah ..apa sangat pun yang dia mahu. Bukan mainan mahal pun. Kadang-kadang main baling bantal masuk bakul kain pun dia dah seronok tak ingat. Yang penting presence. Adanya kita disitu.

Oh sabtu ahad hari tu banyak ketiduran dan bermain di rumah. But on on Monday morning, suddenly Irfan’s daddy ajak jalan-jalan. Pegi kuala langat, morib katanya. Owh saya seronok. Harapnya hari tidak hujan. Sudah lama saya ingin membawa Irfan berjalan-jalan at a place where he can run around freely and play.

Dah sampai pantai morib, ramai rupanya duk berkelah. Ada main lelayang, ada buat barbeque macam-macamlah. Seronok juga, We found a spot and ate our breakfast. Irfan sibuk nak berkawan . pantang ada budak-budak lalu dia nak ikut. Last-last kesian tgk irfan duk usha bebudak main layang-layang , daddy beli satu. Tapi daddy yang main bukan Irfan pun hahaha. Dah menginjak tengahari Irfan dan mula ngantuk .. time tidur.. so ingat nak balik after singgah lunch kat Pak Li’s. Sekali nampak signboard “ tempat bersejarah Jugra. “

Saya tanya “ apa sejarah jugra? “

Daddy cakap” jom kita tgk” dan terus melencong ke jugra. Kami panjat bukit jugra dengan DAV itu. Ada tempat tgk anak bulan, ada kuburan Cina dan tempat orang paragliding.

(eh orang paragliding tu mendarat kat mana ek? )

Sempat juga berenti sekejap amik gambar tapi ngan hp jer lah sebab kamera tinggal. Turun dari bukit tu ada makam sultan abdul samad. Itu jerlah tak larat nak explore lagi sebab dah lapar dan penat. Kami isi perut di Pak Li’s dan terus balik since Irfan dah nak mengamuk sebab ngantuk. Tapi sempat lagi singgah beli cempedak tepi jalan. Huhu

Malam itu saya masak steamed chicken rice. Siap tampal resepi kat dinding oo. Haha puas hati. lama tak masak beria begini.Seronok. Walaupun penat jalan-jalan, petang tu gagah juga pegi pasar beli ayam huhu..

There a day that i simply love. Lain kali jalan lagi daddy yer

something from ms Wiki

Jugra terletak di daerah Kuala Langat, Selangor, Malaysia. Antara lokasi berhampiran ialah Pulau Carey, Kampung Chodoi, Banting, Jenjarom dan Sungai Buaya dan Bandar. Jugra menghadap ke Selat Melaka dan berdekatan muara Sungai Langat. Jugra meliputi kawasan Bukit Jugra, pantai Kelanang, Kampung Sungai Arak dan Kampung Chodoi.
Pada zaman pemerintahan Sultan Abdul Samad yang memerintah negeri Selangor dari tahun 1859-1898 Bukit Jugra telah dijadikan tempat bersemayam Sultan Selangor. Rumah api Bukit Jugra dibina di puncak Bukit Jugra. Sampan, perahu dan tongkang yang membawa bijih timah dari Kajang, Balakong, Hulu Langat, Semenyih dan lain-lain dibawa keluar melalui Sungai Langat dan membayar cukai di Jugra.
Bukit Jugra merupakan tempat strategik kerana berhampiran dengan laut, menghadap perairan Selat Melaka dan ingin dimajukan sebagai kota maritim. Bukit Jugra berasal dari sebuah perkampungan kecil Melayu yang bernama Tanjung Kera. Terdapat banyak kera di sini iaitu dari jenis primate hutan pantai. Kera tidak begitu sesuai dengan status baru kawasan istana lalu ditukar nama kepada Bandar Temasya.
Bukit Jugra ada 3 punca bukit yang menempatkan:
Makam-makan diraja
Bangunan lama untuk para pembesar dan kerabat diraja
Rumah api Bukit Jugra setinggi 146 meter dibina pada 1976 dan ditadbir oleh Jabatan Marin Malaysia.^[1]
1976 pembinaan istana oleh Sultan Abdul Samad

1898 Istana Jugra menjadi tempat pertabalan Sultan Selangor ke-5 iaitu Sultan Alauddin Sulaiman Shah.

Just an update

2011-12-20T15:13:00.000+08:00

A friend complained I rarely update my blog nowadays. If I ever update it will only be a few sentences and pictures. I don’t know. Maybe it was because previously my main reason for having a blog is as an alternative way of connecting with friends and updating each other of our being. But then today we have so many other alternative channels to contact each other and updating stories among us. Before we only have emails, phone and chatting channels, then we have friendster and blog , now we have facebook and twitter. The functions available are more wider with each application. It was such a hassle to upload and send pictures thru email but now you just have to upload and tag your friend tru facebook. That is maybe why I now rarely blog.

I also tend to write a lengthy post about my day in my blog. Not much of anything purposeful. I thought I should write something beneficial if I ever write. So that is why I seldom write. I can’t seem to find a topic useful.

As I grew futher in this career of mine. I tend to be more careful of what I wrote in my blog. I seems to filter everything twice. Even pictures.

Oh you know what, I now realise I tend to write well when I am well read. Oh I need to read more....more.. more.... hehehe

Adik-adik use your 1 Malaysia book voucher wisely. Dont go and splurge on clothes will ya. Huhu

Read

2011-12-07T13:00:00.001+08:00

This morning I had a meeting with this division who does media analysis and control. I arrived early. Not a single soul in the meeting room so I went chitchatting with their boss PA while waiting.

People in this division basically monitor everything in print. From newspaper, books, brochures, even logos in every language possible. I found their work is fascinating.

When the meeting room is filled with people, then only I came in. I was “feeling out of the place” when everyone in the meeting brought something to read while waiting for the chairman. I know it is part of their job to read all that stuff since they have to make the analysis for the higher bosses, at least they are not wasting time. I where as only have my BB to kill the time.

Oh I so envy these people. Even more these people also are legally permitted to read everything that is not allowed to be published or sold outside. You name it, everything published. How lucky. How many information they gain every day.

I also realize some of the staffs have to come in the office at 4 o’clock in the morning everyday to read every single newspaper published on that particular day. Huhu sungguh tabah.

Owh I miss reading so much.

Thoughts (can be destructive)

2011-10-24T17:41:00.000+08:00

I’ve been thinking..

I saw friends and family moving on with their lives. Doing new things. Doing many things. Some are successful at it. Some are doing it on try and error purposes. And many also flop miserably but they learnt valuable lessons from it.

That make me think of my life.

I used to be very cautiously adventurous before. Why I said cautiously because there are certain things I will not do under any circumstances but there are things I may consider doing under certain circumstances. I think my life now is like a car moving on a highway. A smooth sailing ride with nothing to see on the roadside or no manhole or bumps to avoid. It is a boring and sleepy ride with a few stops at RnR for refreshment.

I saw friends going into businesses. Small scale selling clothes, vitamins, supplements tru FB, blogs and all. Taking fully advantage of the Internet. I thought “ No.I am not good in business. I am not good at finance and persuading people. I might ending up giving people goods for free.” Hmm

I saw friends into fashion and beauty. Giving consultations to people about make up, image, and fashion. Giving talks in corporate training class. I thought “ No. First I’ve said I am not good at public speaking. And the topic.. fashion clothes make up. Huhuhu. I rarely wear make up. And I don’t have a clue about current trend dan fashion. I just wore whatever I find decent, beautiful and comfortable.”

I saw family now going into wedding gifts and hantaran creation. Making beautifully crafted designs for family and friends wedding. It was quite a demand nowadays. I thought “ No. I am not the crafty type. I just know how to fold square out of tissue paper and that’s it.”

I went to book fair and went crazy buying cheap books. Woohoo I was like a kid in a candy store munching as many candies as I can in my mouth. Then I thought “ maybe I can just sit, read all this books and make a review for people to read.” “ No. I don’t even have time to finish one book. I have been reading one book for months and still can’t finish it.”

Maybe I just buy the beautiful hard cover cooking books and experiment all the recipes. I will gain two benefits. I can wrote about my cooking adventure and second my family will have a nice meal. “ No. I’ve said I have little time didn’t I.”

My mind did all the thinking without my consent. Often negative thought or excuses. Some are lame ones. I know I can do anything in the world if I made my mind on it, pull my a*s*s up and work on it, and god gives us 24 hours a day not for nothing. But for now I am not doing anything.

Semalam saya menerima laporan kajian kepuasan pelanggan. Mengukur kepuashatian pelanggan ke atas perkhidmatan yang telah kami berikan. Alhamdulillah, kami mencapai tahap yang baik walaupun tidak cemerlang. Tidak mengapa masih ada ruang dan peluang meningkatkan kualiti perkhidmatan. Tapi adalah perkara biasa dengan hati manusia ini, amat susah untuk ditilik. Hari ini begini , esok mungkin lain pula. Yang penting kita sudah berbuat sehabis daya.

Diselitkan dengan laporan itu, beberapa pamphlet (melayu panggil apa? Huhu .. fail) untuk rujukan. Berkenaan Peribadi Kelas Pertama, Perkhidmatan telefon kelas pertama dan perkhidmatan kanter kelas pertama. Segala kelas pertamalah.

Antara ciri-ciri utama Peribadi kelas pertama

-pantas dan positif

-empati

-Relevan

-Daya saing

-Amanah, adil dan integriti

-Nilai tambah dan kelainan

-Arif dan berilmu

Banyak juga yang dikongsikan dalam pamphlet-pamplet itu, aspek-aspek yang perlu diberikan penekanan dalam memastikan kami menjadi kelas pertama . huhu semangat.

Pantun Mana hilangnya?

2011-09-28T14:00:00.003+08:00

Dulu masa sekolah-sekolah, kita selalu didedahkan dengan pantun, seloka, gurindam jiwa.

Semua yang indah-indah belaka. Dengan bahasa penuh santun. Walau berkias namun mudah difahami.

Kemudian tiba di zaman era chatting mula menjadi kegilaan anak muda, Saya berkenalan dengan sekumpulan anak muda perasan panglima hang tuah bersaudara. Tapi yang rajin melayan saya dan sahabat saya si brutal ( tak brutal pun, ayu habis orangnya) seorang sahaja, si banji. Macam-macam drama bangsawan dekat chatroom sampailah dia membuka pantun untuk dijual. Jadilah juga acara berpantun-pantun. Kagum juga dengan dia.

Sekarang ini di era facebook and twitter, masihkah ada mereka yang sudi berpantun? Belum pernah rasanya melihat ada kalangan rakan-rakan meletakkan pantun di wallpost FB atau tweet satu dua pantun.

Sudahla semua ingin berbahasa inggeris , kemudian segala perkara pula ingin dipendek singkatkan.

Cepat dan mudah katanya. kata saya.

tetapi

Tidakkah hilang asli dan keindahannya?

Creative vs Crafty

2011-09-28T13:44:00.000+08:00

I wish I know how to sew and

Make a stunning dress

I wish I know origami and

turn papers into beautiful swan

I wish I know how to splash random colours and

turn it into meaningful artpiece

I wish I know how to carve stone and

Turn it into timeless sculpture

I wish I know how to blow glass and

Make a beautiful bowl

I wish I am good at joining words into beatiful poems

That make a heartfelt and evergreen songs.

It is just me wishing to be a more creative and crafty person.

2011-08-24T11:21:00.004+08:00

Wah.... fuh fuh ..berhabuk bersawang blog aku nih.. silap silap dah jadi sarang tikus.. lama kan tinggal. Bukan apa.. kemahuan untuk menulis agak berkurangan walaupun banyak perkara yang berlaku..namun ntah.. mood takde untuk mencoretkan di sini. Gambar lagilah takde. Huhu.
Masa pun agak kesempitan. Kalau ada masa dirumah pun banyak melayan anak bujangku yang sorang tuh. Layan baca buku, layan main bola. Kalau di ofis, almaklum saja lah.

Tapi insya Allah .. akan ada updatenya lambat atau cepat.

So for a quick update of what happening since last I blog.

Home project. Alhamdulillah slowly settle down. Dh dapat sofa baru yang selesa. Sofa lama ingat nak let go. So sapa2 berminat boleh roger2. Sebenarnya Adik Ipar i dah booking tapi dia belum cari lori lagi. Bilik semua dah kemas. Ruang atas dh selamat dijadikan office area . Mmg tempat lepak daddy Irfan. Yang belum dapat dibuat divider antara dapur n ruang makan, ingat nak buat kabinet sikit dalam 6 kaki tapi belum diconfirm dengan kontraktor. Mamat tu pun cakap jadual kilang dia tengah penuh so. Biar dululah. Sebab bukan keperluan mendesak pun. Cuma I kena pastikan dapur sentiasa kemas lah kot ada tetamu datang heh

Ofis?..malas nak citer biasa saja. Alhamdulillah dah disahkan position sekarang. Itu aje.

Bonus raya? Alhamdulillah rezeki. Planning saya nak beli peti sejuk baru memandangkan keperluan mendesak. Yang digunakan sekarang yang satu pintu tuh. Sekarang ni nak kena gi pasar 2 kali seminggu sebab takleh nak beli sekali banyak. Tak muat dah nak letak bahan-bahan mentah. Zaman dulu ok la. Ini isi rumah dah bertambah. Tapi tak sempat nak survey2 lagi. Nanti lah. Haa peti sejuk ni pun maybe nanti nak let go. Kalau ada yang nak especially budak2 bujang yang duk menyewa tuh. Tolong cari lori n angkut jer.

Puasa. Oh tahun ini baru sekali berbuka puasa diluar. Satu pencapaian yang hebat bagi kitorang tau. Tahun lepas, hampir 80 % berbuka kat luar.

Last Wednesday, kami ajak kawan-kawan rapat dan jiran-jiran berbuka di rumah. Tak masak pun. Saya buat puding caramel je . Yang lain semua masak kat dapur orang.. hehe.. Terima kasih pada yang datang. Saja prehousewarming. Nak tengok boleh manage ke tak saya ni buat majlis. :D . Alhamdulillah rezeki semua orang ..siap boleh tapau nasi kerabu lagi.

Raya? InsyaAllah kami beraya di bumi kenyalang tahun ini. Hari jumaat terbang pulang. Tengoklah kalau rajin saya cuba amik gambar banyak-banyak sikit.

Irfan? Alhamdulillah sihat. Sejak berhentikan dia nursery and lepas yang warded 5 hari tu dia dah takde demam dan selesema dah. Lasak. Dah namanya lelaki. Tapi senang senyum. Sapa-sapa tegur pun dia senyum. Sekarang mulut bising tapi tak faham pun.. yang boleh pun dade (daddy), taetae (air..sbb mak dia suka minum teh ..semua air dia bantai panggil teh) , mamam (makan) yang lain tak berapa nak faham. Huhu.Tiap –tiap hari balik kerja kena main bola ngan dia dulu. Kalu duduk pun dia akan mai tarik suh main bola dulu so layan je la.

29 already?

2011-06-13T11:57:00.002+08:00

I feel like i have lost myself especially careerwise. I personally believe I didn’t really ready for this but it came anyway so i have to embrace it whether i like it or not. And the feeling of being neglected getting stronger and stronger (careerwise ok. I am happy at home.huhu). My quiet nature make me drift futher away. Sighhh
I am still stuck in the dark room with many doors. Sob sob

I will never climb the step anymore unless i am really truly ready. I don’t care anymore if others have leap futher up. I don’t care. I am not here for the money futhermore the power. I need money but am not crazy chasing it. The more power you have..the heavier your responsibility are .

I am happy with what i have. I need the peace. Peace in heart.
Allah pls give me the peace i need and also to those around me so they can be kind to others. Amin.

I envy those who can stay at home but still generate income.... or at least have flexible working hours. I like.

Oh I am now getting more interested in home design. How happy seeing all the beautiful homes. I wish my home is like that. It will.. in a few years. It takes time to collect things and decorate it so that it will reflect the owners personalities. Huhu...

My birthday on Saturday? Celebration in pyjamas huhu. Tett dropped by with a cute pink-haired doll cake. Irfan was happy as if it was his birthday.. huhu. Thanks tett. When tett left, we went out for a heartiest steak and pasta meal. Burp.

The HOME

2011-05-11T11:45:00.006+08:00

I called it Home because it is ours (woohoo!) and I really want it felt like home. The place where your heart is no matter where you go.

We received the key for the home sometime at the end of last year. After some defect complaint, and repair, we took some time figuring out what to do with a few extra feet behind the house and the kitchen. After some negotiations and discussions, we decided to extend the kitchen to the back and did a small laundry area. We hired a contractor company and asked them to also do the plaster ceiling for the whole ground floor and also the wiring for the whole house. woohoo There goes all my money... muahahahaha

Actually I was quite lucky to have bought this house before the price went whooping up and I got the loan marked up. So I still have a few thousands from the loan that cover the renovation. huhu so not SEGEDEBUK all have to be paid now lah. huhu.

Now. The renovation + the wet kitchen cabinet (with cooker, hood and sink installed)+ plaster ceiling+ wiring. DONE -minor complaints on furnishing though. I am a fussy customer. but my husband is fussier hahaha.

Tomorrow they will install the dry kitchen cabinet which I hired another contractor to do because the former contractor quoted a very high price. I saved a couple thousands okay.

The lighting for plaster ceiling-DONE
Fans for living, dining and all bedrooms -DONE
lighting for all bedrooms- TOMORROW
lighting for all bathroom-next week (they have to order it)
wall light for staircase-tomorrow
Lighting in the storeroom and laundry area-tomorrow

2011-05-03T10:24:00.001+08:00

Can't wait oh I can't wait

Free lecture

2011-04-19T16:27:00.001+08:00

For the first time in my career .. today i feel i am not worth given the previous promotion. I wish i can go back to where I am before and stay at that level for good 5 years more for the sake of the experience and respect.

I don't like the way the bosses treated our work as second class work. Always complaining and labelling it as routine jobs. Okay if this is a routine job then why put it under officer’s job scope. Why not put it under clerks job scope. He always said we cannot be in just one level all the time we must cross board... bla bla . For 30 minutes of free lecture I had with him I only understand half of what he is saying. Menyesal. I rarely went to him for any advice because of this. I hardly understand what he want from me. Most of the time. Whenever he called us up for his “free lecture” as we call it. We will came out of the room more confuse than before. Huhu

It is hard for me to apply for transfer since I already turn down two transfer orders before but I hope he will transfer me out. I am not like his favourite officers who can sit around him for hours in the room smoking and chatting I don’t know what. I am not. I just did what in my job scope says quietly then I go back home. I don’t wish to be popular. I don’t wish for the top management to know me. I just wish what I do is justifying for the pay and all the allowances to be halal for me and my family.

You may say I am not an ambitious person. Whatever. Career is not my priority. I know my current job very well. It is not to serve the bosses but the people. The bosses can talk all day...mere talking..everyone can do that. But who will be question before god thereafter?
Exhausted. I don’t like people talking a lot. Kepala pusing tau. Menyampah. Talking history..you know it 2011 already?.. Not that I hate history. I love history very much. But I don’t like people talking history of himself “memperbesarkan diri” as if u know everything. Benci. Setakat cakap saja. Please tolong beri jalan penyelesaian boleh?. :P

FROM BEIRUT TO JERUSALEM by Ang Swee Chai

2011-04-18T12:08:00.004+08:00

I first saw this book in Iryani's room during our University years..I think it was in the third year or final year.. but definitely after our industrial training. Actually she was the one who first introduce me to blogging and since then here I am still writing although not as frequent as before. huhu..

I think I saw this book on her study table, read the synopsis at the back of the book and was hoping someday i will have the time to borrow it from her and read it. but..hmmm.. the thought just disappeared to the back of my head as we were busy with final year project and stuff.

Now..after almost 6-7 years later, I found this book by accident. I was in MPH alamanda just killing my time while waiting (I couldn't remember whom I was waiting for ). I saw this book.. (I thought "wow, this book is about Palestine and the author is a chinese. Interesting"). Then it hit me that this is the same book that I saw a few years ago on Iryani's desk. I went straight to the cashier.

Approaching the big 1

Merry go round

2011-03-09T14:33:00.002+08:00

So many things arise at work. Problems. things that have been done for a few years now need to be revised. They were found to have some errors that may compromise what we have been doing all these years. Jeng!!

It was not an easy task as it revolve around legal thing which I don't really master but I do have to take it verrryyyy seriously. It also involves and affects the procedures of several departments. Nice.

As I read and read ( where you know how dull law book can be) trying to find solutions I found more problems. hahahaha. Aiyo I really need to tackle one thing at a time. Better go and see Tuan Penasihat as soon as possible. The more I read and think, the more "merry go round " in my head. Now I know why many my x bosses have high blood pressure.. hihihi.

Come on dear. stay calm. take this as a challenge. you can do it!!

(Bila buku memoir Mahathir nak sampai ni. I need inspirations. Now.)

Some things have to wait

2011-02-18T17:03:00.003+08:00

wah.. a month with no updates here.. huhu..
but many things did happen actually
and i didn't have time to actually sit still and write.

End of January Irfan was warded for 5 days. high fever and having fit (minor seizure) a couple of time. The first time was at home so we rush him to the hospital. It was such a hard time for me to see him on drip 24-7 and his blood was taken almost every day for some test. Remembering how he was crying and looked at me when the doctor try to put the needle for the drip.. aduhai berlubang-lubang anak I. susah nak masuk. I almost cried myself that I just waited outside.

After he was discharged, we went back to Kuching for almost a week. weehuu...

Then back to work till now.. Work is stressful as always but luckily I have penyejuk mata waiting at home. :D

Mejeng di Medan

Lunch

Thanks to Pakcik Dar, CheGam, Bonda Yang, Dani, Nadia, Nabila ,Bondan and Qemal, we had such a great holiday in Medan, Indonesia. Before this I was quite worried because we were suppose to spend 5 days in Medan and from what I search on the Internet there are not many tourist spot in Medan. There are only lake toba and Brastagi which are outside Medan.

My husband, Irfan and I accompanied by my parents and younger brother flew to Medan for our new year break. We have fun although most of the time spent was mostly on eating and shopping. The boys got to experience New Year celebration Medan style. Mejeng (lepaking I suppose) by the roadside where there was live bands performing and fireworks.

We also explored different taste of Indonesia such as melayu Padang, Minang and Acheh cuisine. Bonda Yang also went through all the trouble to prepare us dinner of Pliek U and Acheh Curry. We also have the chance to eat Nasi Uduk plus fried chicken or duck with special sauce (sambal).
Since it was new year holiday, our trip to Lake Toba was cancel due to unavailability of accomodation. Fully booked. To went up there on a day trip would be too exhausting and I don’t think it is wise since we have a baby with us. It will take 6 hour up plus 45 minutes of ferry ride to Pulau Samosir in the middle of the lake and another 45 minutes back to mainland and 6 hours down.

Instead we just went up to Brastagi on the 2nd Jan since we anticipate that the road would be clearer since everyone will be going down already. How we are wrong huhu.. The journey up which supposedly only one hour took about 4 hours and it was even worst when we went down at around 6pm. We arrived safely in TSB at midnight. ( Untung Irfan tidur, mummy dah risau bekalan susu tidak mencukupi).

Irfan was such a good boy. Throughout the journey, he will only cry if he is hungry or want to sleep. At most of the time he was calm even more if there are people who entertain him .

weeehuuu... missing Medan already. To those name mentioned above, thanks for letting us crashing in at your place, for driving us everywhere and even guiding us around for good stuff to buy plus bargaining.

next time .. gantian ya.. kamu semua pula ke sini.. :D

The leaning tower of Teluk Intan

2010-12-19T17:16:00.005+08:00

Irfan didn't want to smile. He was sleepy and really want to sleep. huhu

Inside the tower. The tower was actually holding a huge water tank for the town. The weight of the tank filled with water plus the soft ground it has been built on has caused the tower to lean a bit. Can u see above my head is the water tank. I don't think it is still in use.

2010-12-13T10:32:00.001+08:00

Busiest months since November. No weekend at home since 20 November. Woohoo

20-21 November – Irfan and Thaqif akikah in Kota Bharu, Kelantan
26-27 November - business meeting in Penang and visiting a friend in Arau, Perlis
4-5 Disember - cousin’s wedding in Ipoh, Perak and business dinner at PICC, Putrajaya on the 5th.
10-11 Disember – weddings at Teluk Intan, Perak and Nilai, Negeri Sembilan
17-18 Disember – business meeting in Melaka
24-25 Disember – nothing so far ..(back to Kota Bharu Kelantan maybe)
1-2 Januari 2011 – Medan, Indonesia.

So I’ll be off the radar for sometime ya.
Life is hectic and juggling with the hardest job yet the most fulfilling ever (being Irfan mummy of course) was sometimes very overwhelming and exhausting. Plus the neverending demand from the business.

This month, work was not fun. I get frustrated a few times. Melenting tahap nak makan orang tapi tak boleh then last2 duk diam dalam bilik. Tarik nafas dalam dalam and lastly I blame myself for all the problems. Geee aku memang tak pandai jadi bos. Susah. Benci. Aku rasa kecil di sini. Dan thos people pun agaknya nampak aku kecil di sini. Aku tak salahkan anak-anak buah aku. They are all very helpful and sangat bekerjasama. Cuma masalah sekarang ni aku.Kadang-kadang aku rasa macam aku kat satu bilik gelap yang banyak pintu. Tapi aku tak nampak pintu-pintu itu sebab aku buta. Tapi macam macam mana aku tau bilik itu gelap sedangkan aku buta? Haa itulah masalah aku sekarang.

A cousin wedding

2010-11-07T14:15:00.009+08:00

before heading out to Shah alam for the akad nikah ceremony.

The top was actually a last minute purchase since i need to wear a white top for the ceremony.

In the month of October, there was a cousin wedding. A purple wedding, with great food and company. Despite the stress of anticipating the ptk, i still manage to enjoy the celebration. Family gathering .. full of laughter and chattering.

div>This was why i need to actually wear white and the sarong. I'm the dayang2 eh mak orang buleh kira dayang2 ke..mak inang..huhuhu

and this was at the reception.daddy with one of my cousins and mummy of course with Irfan

Congratulations Syed Mustafa and Siti Marliza.. May Allah bless you guys with a wonderful life ahead.

PTK terakhir abad Ini.

Sejak PM umumkan dalam budget 2011 bahawa PTK dimansuhkan , ramai yang sangat gumbira. Ye lah siapa suka dengan exam kan?. Tapi dalam gembira itu risau juga. Entah bagaimanalah pengganti PTK itu nanti. Jangan haraplah nak lepas tanpa ptk langsung. Kompem akan diganti dengan system lain punya. Ingat sesenang nak naik pangkat. Huhu .. Mesti ada penilaian punya. Setakat bodek-bodek… kipas-kipas bos :p takde ler..

Anyway yours truly and dear husband baru lepas PTK .Seminggu tu. Macam-macam ada. Ceramah, public speaking, pembentangan pengurusan kerja, pembentangan kerja kumpulan (ala-ala case study siap power point gitu) dan akhir sekali of course 2 exam bertulis.
Aku tang exam bertulis tuh kurang takutnyer walaupun tahu cover banyak giler( dari isu semasa rasuah jenayah dadah segala sampailah specific pasal pekeliling2 , kewangan, asset, pengurusan tanah, segala macam dasar kerajaan, urusan tanah.. macam2…so cemana nak baca?).. memang tak tau nak baca apa. Tapi sebab dia bertulis..tak takut sangat. Bukan objektif ABC yer adik adik.. soalan esei yang perlu dijawab secara analisa ok .
Yang sesi lain-lain tuh sebab kena bercakap. Gabra habis. Public speaking of course English without any visual aid.

Dan punya la aku stress pasal PTK nih sampai hari first tuh .. kena gastric pastuh macam demam seram sejuk takleh bangun. Dah kena MC separuh hari.. aduhai.

Tapi Alhamdulillah esoknya dah sihat and memandangkan bonda datang dari jauh temankan berjayalah aku n dear husband menjalani ptk itu dengan tenang. Semalam habis. Tak taulah macam mana hasil keputusannya.

Tolonglah lulus..

Oh lupa ada 2 assignment due lepas aidil adha.. haish

lepas tuh baru bleh ..tolong lah lulus. huhu

Hari ini birthday daddy Irfan tapi daddy tengah dalam misi mencari doraemon di Jepun. Takpe.. mummy celebrate ngan Irfan kat sini.. hihi.. Hari ni juga birthday kakak mummy, kak wanie.

Irfan dah besar.. sudah pandai berguling-guling sampai jatuh katil.. meniarap dan menyondol@ kepala ke depan .. sudah ketawa mengekek.. lagi orang gelak lagi dia ketawa.. suka orang berborak dengan dia. huhu

My 2 heroes. Ini gambar feveret mummy, diambil semasa dalam erl dari KLIA ke Putrajaya selepas pulang beraya di KB. Seronok Irfan naik train yer.. dalam kapal terbang pun dia tidur jer.. tu yang dah mendarat aktif ajer...

kata Irfan:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Daddy n Che Anie.. dan Selamat Hari Raya kepada semua!!!!!

Breath

2010-07-28T16:54:00.003+08:00

Saya MC 2 hari setelah pulang dari menemankan dear husband outstation.. of course Irfan pun ikut sekali. Yang sebenarnya saya yang beria hendak mengikut. tidak sanggup rasanya sensorang di rumah memalam bersama Irfan sahaja. huhu kes dah lama tak kena tinggal.

anyway 2 hari di rumah pun bukannya berehat sangat but its ok. for a breather.Alhamdulillah selesema dapat dikawal. tekak jer ada sedikit perit. Risau dan tak suka sakit sekarang bimbang terjangkit dekat si kecik.

anyway masuk ofis hari ini , terpaksa pula buat kerja orang lain walhal dia ada ajer kat ofis. Hang busy sangat ke. Tgk boleh ajer tergedek2 pi shopping dekat jualan time tengahari. dah banyak kali. Tiap kali pun aku tarik nafasdan senyum jer. Nak buat macam mana terpaksa mengadap orang on behalf orang lain. letih. Tak suka sebab aku tidak dapat memberikan assurance yang bagus kepada orang yang aku jumpa memandangkan bukan aku yang akan proceed hal itu. huhh.. duit nak kerja tanak. cemana? jawablah nanti. haa kan aku dah marah.. elok-elok saya kat atas dah jadi aku..hehehe

Breath..breath.. smile.. sabar.. ada hikmahnya tu nanti. ceh pujuk diri sendiri.

Nursery

2010-07-19T13:38:00.002+08:00

Hari ni first day Irfan pegi nursery selepas ditangguh memandangkan dia hari tu seperti tidak sedap badan selepas injection. Semalam Irfan asyik terjaga aje. Mesti dia tau nenek dah balik dah. huhu. Semalam awal-awal lagi dah siapkan barang2 Irfan takut tertinggal apa-apa.

Nasib baik subuh tadi Irfan tak mengamuk sangat. baik aje layan mummy borak sambil tunggu daddy siap-siap. Dia macam pelik je bila bawak naik kereta huhu. Mesti pelik pagi-pagi dah keluar jalan, selalu pagi-pagi bawak keluar tengok bird je sambil buka pintu pagar. huhu

Sepanjang jalan ke nursery, Irfan tidur je. Ngantuk tak cukup tidur semalam agaknya. Sampai di nursery bila cikgu ambik dia terjaga. Nasib baik Irfan biasa tidur meniarap. Irfan tak nangis pun bila mummy n daddy nak gi ofis. Dia asyik duk tgk keliling, tempat baru..bila dady usik dia senyum2. OKlah tu lega sikit mummy. Kalu Irfan nangis-nangis, mau mummy tak sampai hati nak tinggal. sedih.

Kak N bagitau kalau baby tertiba demam atau apa-apa dia telefonlah nanti. Kalau tak telefon tu maknanya semua OKla tuh. huhu saja la Kak N tu nak sedapkan hati mummy ..ngesh ngesh.

Tiga

2010-07-14T16:27:00.004+08:00

Uish..sudah sebulan tidak di update. Busy with many things, sorry.. :D

Anyway, anak mummy, Irfan dah 3 bulan. Belum pandai membalikkan badan untuk meniarap tapi kalau diletakkan meniarap mesti angkat kepala tinggi. Dia suka berborak (in his own way of course) and kami memang suka berborak dengan dia. Ceritalah tentang apa saja. Cerita fasal ofis pun dia dengar aje. Apa lagi kalau nyanyi-nyanyi.

Irfan juga dah pandai tengok TV. Especially yang kaler terang-terang. dan dia juga begitu teruja dengan lampu siling kat ruang tamu. Kalau on mesti dia gelak and buat bunyi seolah-olah dia tegur dan cakap-cakap dengan lampu tu.

Semalam pegi ambik injection imunisasi. Irfan tak nangis pun. Dia jerit sikit masa ubat masuk pastuh sibuk nak susu and terus tidur. Hari ni dia macam gelisah sikit tak sedap badan kot. Jangan demam sudah.

Esok Irfan dah start kena pegi nursery so mana boleh demam. Irfan nak gi school mummy dia yang nervous lelebih. Barang-barang Irfan dah siap list.malam ni kemas. Harap Irfan dapat adapt dengan cepat and cikgu2 semua baik. huhu

......................................................................................................................................................................

Satu lagi yang buat aku teruja ni .. melihatkan projek rumah idaman sudah nak siap. Tak sabar dah tunggu ni. Katanya akhir bulan depan dapat kunci.Tgh tunggu CF.

Aku dah berangan ni. sambil-sambil tu dah start spring cleaning rumah sekarang. Mana barang tanak, nak buang jer. Siap dah surf internet cari tips and idea hias rumah yang tak besar mana tu. kecik pun janji comel and landed property. Janji sendiri punya bukan sewa. huhu.

tak sabarnya....

Sekarang ni memang semangat fikir fasal rumah and Irfan je. Projek tu dua jer dalam kepala ni sampai akhir tahun ni kot. Kalu shopping pun semua sama ada barang Irfan atau barang rumah jer. Takde dah nak beli baju mummy ke..kasut baru ke...huhuhu Tengah berangan la nanti ruang tamu cantik macam dalam gambar tu. Dapur pun walaupun kecik tapi comel. Harap lepas tu rajin la masak. huhu Tapi boleh ke orang buat kabinet macam tu eh.. mahal tak?.. kui kui.

Nak kena budget betul-betul and prioritize ni. Duit semua kena invest untuk rumah jer setengah tahun yang akhir ni. Nak kena cari kontraktor yang bagus. Nak renovate siap-siap baru nak masuk rumah.

Birthday

2010-06-11T09:57:00.000+08:00

I am trully blessed.

Syukur.

Irfan on a Jet Plane

2010-06-09T08:19:00.002+08:00

We are now back in Seri Kembangan and I started working on Tuesday.

Irfan was such a good boy throughout the flight from KB-KL on monday. He slept peacefully on daddy's lap, thanks to the pacifier given by my sister. huhu. A test for us and him. If we managed to go through this 1 hour flight without any problem than we will survive the 2 hour flight to Kuching. hahaha (lupa amik gambar Irfan dalam flight)

Irfan. daddy cakap kalu good boy daddy bawak jalan oversea. ngesh ngesh

I was so blur yesterday morning reporting back to office. So many new faces and there was a reorganization with new units. hua hua One whole day was spent getting the latest news on what happening around the office and confirming aout my new jobscope.

N.I.A.R.

2010-06-04T16:40:00.017+08:00

(Nik Irfan Abdul Rahman)
Owh it spells RAIN backward. Rahmat tuhan.

It is nearly 2 months since Irfan was born. I have never really wrote or told anyone about the experience except for Farah when we chatted a few weeks ago. It was also her who asked how was it as I added another role up my sleeves - from just a wife to a mother. I was just discharged from the hospital when she asked it. If I had answered her there and then, I would've replied
" It was such an overwhelming experience and I doubt I would want to go through it again" huhu

The memory going in labour is quite blurry to me. Maybe because of the pain or the painkiller.I just remember my husband who had always been by my side, trying hard to calm me by cracking silly jokes. I just looked at him with a blank face and he knew, seriously it was not a suitable time for jokes hehe.I also remember he kept offering promises which I didn't remember any after delivery. RUGI. I also remember both my parents and mother in law was also there throughout the time I was in labour.

I was admitted to the labour room at 7pm on 11 April and by 5 am the next day, I was 7 cm dilated. I also kept vomiting every time the pain escalated hence I got weaker. By 8am, the water broke but I was having hard time pushing the baby out. I was sleepy and exhausted. The doctor decided to vacuum after a few try.

Irfan was loud when he was out, he cried his heart out despite the doctor's warning that he may not cry, quite and sleepy- the effect of the painkiler I took. Even I was tend to doze off in between contractions. When the baby was brought to me, then only I realized he has daddy's sepet eyes and mummy's thick hair and eyebrows.

Yes, the first week was tough. My body was in constant pain and tired all the time. I was also having mummy blues. My emotion was like a roller coaster. Sometimes I felt like everybody was ignoring my needs and everything was about the baby. At other time I felt like everyone was bossing me around. Telling me to do this and that, don't so this and that.
(walhal dah kata new mother, first baby memang la semua orang bagi macam-macam nasihat)

I also got easily frusfrated over small things. Whether I failed to nurse him, to calm him down or when other people took over taking care of him. I strongly feel that everything about the baby is solely our responsibility - me and husband. So when anyone helped, took care for him, changed his diapers and other thing (except for bath) I felt uneasy.( walhal they just want to help because I am not fully recovered).I have always want to do those things myself, and I know how to do them. It would hurt me when they think I knew nothing. I also would think if I didn't take care of the baby now he won't love me later.huhu such weird feelings. Feelings that I was not suppose to feel. No wonder I was so stressed out.

(So many weird feelings to handle, no wonder there is such thing as new mothers depression)

Now I am more calm and slowly getting better handling Irfan. He is a fussy baby and will wail his heart out whenever he is upset. Now he can smile, giggle and baby talk. He like it when I sing to him or bring him outside every morning and evening. I love spending time with him everyday.

MUMMY LOVE YOU, IRFAN
and daddy too :p

ps:
having heard Irfan's sweet giggle.. I am willing to go through the experience again..

Saya mula cuti bersalin 60 hari starting 28 Mac ni. Saja ambil awal..walaupun belum bersalin.
Sekarang ini bersantaian di teratak bonda sehinggalah habis pantang nanti. bersama dear pirate balik dengan menaiki kapal terbang jumaat hari tu. beria-ria saya meminta doktor menyediakan surat pengesahan bahawa saya sihat untuk naik kapal terbang sekali tak ditanya langsung pun semasa nak naik. huhu..nampak sangat saya masih lagi slim dan comel.. huhu perasan tak sudah

Tadi berjumpa dengan doktor yang insyaAllah akan menyambut kelahiran ini. Setelah diperiksa katanya kalau melihat keadaan kedudukan bayi, saya tidak akan bersalin lagi dalam masa seminggu ini. Sempat lagi lah saya hendak makan segala makanan sementara kat kb nih. Roti Canai Cotek, Nasi Lemak TC, Ayam Percik, dan banyak lagi hihihi.

Hujung minggu yang Hoyea Hoyea

2010-03-22T15:46:00.006+08:00

On friday I went to Motherhood Fair in MidValley hoping for some great bargains on baby products but ended up not really spending much except for PAMA subscription. We managed to get some really good information about imblilical cord blood stem cell storage though. Quite a number of companies offer such services for a certain amount of fee. hmm

After that we went to the International Book Fair in MidValley.. huhu sungguh seronok membeli macam-macam buku.. Dear Pirates memula macam tidak berminat, sekali jumpa buku yang dia sukaa.. haaa amik. lagi mahal tuh harga dia.. :P
Sabtu petang kami ke Bagan Lalang.. bergediks jadi model.. hihi..
Seronok juga.. thanks tu EnWanzai dan assistantnyer yang cute.
juga rakan-rakan yang meneman bergambar. Lepas tuh kami belasah makan seafood kat restoran di situ.

Hari Ahad banyak rehat saja. penat.. tak larat dah. Tapi tengah hari keluar juga cari makanan Arab di Restoran Sanaa, Cyberjaya. Damn habis saya makan nasi madgoat ke cemane ntah ejaannya hihi..banyak tuh. kemudian ke Jusco temankan ecah potong rambut.. kita pun cuci rambut sekali... yee haa...

Hari ni isnin mula la rasa malas. tapi surat sudah dapat. arahan untuk tidak melompat cuma tidak tahu perlu mengengsot ke mana. Kerja lama kena buat juga. Kerja baru pun buat juga.

News... good or bad..

I just received sms from my brother-in-law, my sister has just given birth to a healthy baby boy earlier this morning. Supposedly she was due yesterday and the doctor planned to induced labor today. Tak sempat pun.

Huhuhu waiting anxiously for my turn..insyaAllah in a month time.
Owh for those who keep saying I didn’t look pregnant. Tgklah gambar itu.. besaq haaa..
The picture was taken at Bagan Lalang by Echah. Dear husband and Echah telah melayan my sudden craving for crabs..nyum nyum.

Owh my, I also received a slightly not so good news that made me have to reconsider my plans and steps on the stones (refer to previous post) huhuhuhu. Guano deh?

Fewhh

2010-03-04T18:02:00.003+08:00

I just came back from Serdang hospital..follow up. Everything is fine thankfully. Little one is about 2.4 kg. No wonder I am getting restless and tired easily now. I am planning for early maternity leave. Maybe a week or two before the due date.

Owh I just been informed by the doctor that Putrajaya Hospital only accept those who allegible for First Class ward for labour where else those for 2nd and third class ward wll be advised to go to Serdang Hospital.

ps: I think kakak sebelah rumah sudah bersalin, setiap kali pintu rumah terbuka bau bedak baby.... hmmmm

" You rasa macam mana?"

2010-02-22T16:03:00.004+08:00

Setiap langkah hidup ini mesti ada batu-batu yang menghalang..

jalan terus saja

"You rasa macam mana?" Itu ayat big boss. Setulusnya saya tiada rasa ketika itu. Melihat bos yang sedang enak menjamah nasi lemak pun, saya tidak rasa apa-apa walaupun saya masih belum bersarapan . Kerana saya melihat apa yang saya inginkan hanya separuh tercapai iaitu berubah tetapi rupanya ia membawa saya ke tempat yang mungkin dikatakan mampu mengundang ketidaklapangan hati.

Jadi cadangan bos itu mungkin sedikit memberi keamanan kerana saya hanya perlu mengengsot ke tepi sahaja tanpa perlu mengangkat kaki dan melompat ke seberang. Tapi saya risau nanti saya dilanda kejumudan. aduhai. Serba salah jadinya.

Tapi bila saya fikir mungkin ada hikmahnya jika saya sekadar mengengsot memandangkan keadaan sekarang. hmm. Bos... kalu betul nak saya engsot saja, Cepatlah sikit urusannya, bimbang yang di seberang menunggu. hehehe

Uish ini sudah kali kedua lompatan saya tak jadi. Lepas ini mesti orang pikir dua kali nak bagi saya lompat lagi. Sampai bersara la macam ni. Takpe, saya nak bersara awal, berangan jadi mak datin, buka spa or cafe bookshop untuk kawan-kawan melepak. hahahahaha

Hospitalised

2010-02-17T22:50:00.001+08:00

I was warded again. For 4 days. No, not for drips, dehydrating but for spotting blood. Actually It was Sunday and I was at a shopping complex as usual my weekend date with husband. I went to the toilet and as I washed up I found blood in the bowl. (haha very the detail lah ) I tried not to panic and finished up my ‘business’.

Soon outside I told dear husband and he immediately suggested going to the hospital. Now, I actually have some phobia with hospitals after a few bad experiences with Putrajaya one. Huhu so we headed up to Azzahra but disappointingly they didn’t want to accept my case fearing that I maybe having an early labor and they didn’t have the equipment for premature babies (?). They suggested me to be referred to government hospital so I immediately chose Hospital Serdang.

Arriving at the hospital labour room they immediately made a thorough check up. They ultrasound scan me twice to make sure it wasn’t placenta previa. Finally they diagnosed me with cervical erosion. Common among pregnant woman, those on hormone replacement therapy or birth control pills and young woman. It is believed to be responses of the level of estrogen in the body.

I was monitored for those few days and discharged on Wednesday but on MC until Chinese New Year. We had initially planned to go back to KB for the long break but had to canceled it since it was not advisable for me to travel long distance. Huhu how frustrating cos I actually anticipating the long break in the comfort of my parents home. Hmm anyway I spent the long holiday lazying around. My sister and sister in law was there and help around with the house chores. Plus dear husband who has to do everything in his own.. huhu.

I have another appointment with the gynae early next month so hopefully everything will be fine since I am planning to give birth at my hometown.. huhuhu

It was quite an experience spending time in the Hospital since this was my first time admitted more than 1 day. And I met quite a few interesting people. I may have to write a new post to describe them. Hehe

Ps: I was planning to do some work, but had a few things going on in my mind, plus the baby is kicking hard. I am tired, getting stressed out and sleepy that is why I can blog. If I had nothing to do, happy and as calm as a baby, I will not have any ideas to blog. Hihi.

Embracing 2010 with love

2010-01-01T11:34:00.000+08:00

Another new role to be added this year which is such a big responsibility...
Not much worry though. All that we hope that the baby is healthy and happy...: D

(* tapi kan... both of us is still quite clueless on what to prepare for the newborn..hehe)

Both of us are also due for some progress in our career...
And looks like dear pirate got everything going marvelous for him... huhu
I don’t mind dear... Since I will always get my share kan?..
*wink *wink *bling *bling..hehe
It may be a promotion and with it come heavier responsibilities to shoulder.
I am not sure whether I am ready to it but as time goes by me, I must prep myself from now on.
Go! Go!
I have to be sharp and quick in analyzing things, be accurate and firm in decision making... But still maintaining my people-oriented approach... Can ah?
Duhh...

We are also waiting for our new home... It is till under construction...
Said to be completed this year... owh can’t wait
It may be small but a home is what we made it to be...

( Nanti lagi besar lagi banyak sepah and barang2.. jadi hoarder nanti aku.. takmau!! Tidak suka juga tinggal tinggi di awan... huhu at least bertanah sikit... boleh aku tanam cili padi..serai..pandan.. jadilah.. hahaha)

Comel ke?

2009-12-22T16:48:00.008+08:00

A few people commented that I looked comel today... ngesh ngesh..

membuatkan aku di awang-awangan sekejap . * abih ler perasan. huhu
I wear something different to work today because I can't really fit in my baju kurung anymore esp the kain. Always have to put on extra pin. :D

adalah lebih kurang baju di sebelah dgn skirt panjang..

I kinda fell in love with maxi dresses but I dunno whether it will make me look like a tent or like a lamp post. huhuhu... I think the dresses is beautiful and looked formal enough for a dinner event or kenduri. hmmm....

SESI KUNYAH-KUNYAH

2009-12-07T15:57:00.004+08:00

Aku suka makan..dari dulu lagi..tapi dulu kalu tetiba rasa badan naik .. boleh aku skip2 makan kalu malas... sekarang tak boleh beb..
Everything are all about eating nowadays..Even our weekend outings these days always revolve on eating.. restaurant hunting.. kenduri-kendara or just a stop at our regular nasi lemak or goreng pisang stalls..
haishh.. I gained extra 2kg ++ last week..the nurse said i should gained only half a kilo.. duh

I blamed 4 senduk nasi I ate at kedai nasi daun pisang Khanna that weekend.. jeng! bak kata ecah, "menangis nak habiskan...nasi tuh" tapi best and puas hati.. tak makan nasi malam tu pun tak kisah.. hahaha

Kalu berat aku naik banyak itu.. mr.pirates yang sentiasa melayan aku makan tuh.. taktau la plak banyak mana naik.. huhuhu :D

Nurse tuh cakap kurangkan karbohidrat, makanan berminyak, and makanan berlemak..but I'm so into Indian cuisine lately.. hahaha cemana nih..

Tengah syok duk cari-cari tempat nasi daun pisang tetiba teringat ini..NASI TUMPANG..
wah.... sungguh lama tak makan tuh... bile dear bonda nak datang kl yer??..boleh pesan nih..
Nasi ini dibungkus dengan daun pisang dalam bentuk kon. selalunya ada lauk udang, ikan dan serunding ikan..nasi dia pulak ala-ala nasi impit..
waduh..best best...

Haa satu lagi aku tengah cari tempat makan jual Nasi Air.. bukan bubur nasi tau.. I believe there are slight differences between Nasi Air and bubur nasi.. Kedai Nasi Air yang kitorang selalu pegi dekat Serdang dah tak jual Nasi Air lagi.. huhuhu.. :(

so mana nak dapat lagi yer?..

Ninja Turtle

2009-11-24T16:26:00.005+08:00

clockwise dari atas kiri: tuntung, labi-labi, penyu, kura-kura

(apabila di google image lah..tak tau betul ke tak)

Hari ini lunch bersama tett, ecah n fish di sebuah restoran baru di Cyberjaya.. berdinding kayu yang cantik dan ada kolam ditengah-tengahnya. tapi makanannya biasa-biasa saja.

Dari cerita facebook, ke cerita kerja hinggalah tercerita pasal ikan-ikan dan kura-kura di dalam kolam itu.. Kebetulan kami memilih meja di tepi kolam, dapatlah tengok ikan-ikan berenang2 dan ada seekor kura-kura..pastuh kiterang blehla pulak kompius kura-kura, ke tuntung ke labi-labi ke penyu.. tapi obviouslah penyu kat laut kan.. pastuh which one is tortoise and which is turtle..?

dan aku baru terperasan teenage mutant ninja turtle itu penyu.... eh ye ke?..

dan dek kerana perbincangan itu, sekarang ini aku duk sibuk wiki2 bezanya tapi susah nak dapat penerangan bahasa melayu.. yang aku tau sekarang tortoise= kura-kura, turtle=penyu dan terapins=tuntung. dan apa yang membezakan adalah kakinya,bentuk cengkerang dan juga kebolehan menyembunyikan kepala serta kaki.. rasanya penyu takleh sembunyikan kaki kan?.. tapi aku masih lagi tidak begitu pasti dengan jelas

"which one is which?" aduhai~~

Life goes on

2009-10-21T15:17:00.006+08:00

Waaahhh it has been nearly a month since my last post eh?..
oh well .. there are so many things going on in my life.. so I've drained all the energy mentally and physically adjusting to it. huhu

1. I always being ask" how's married life ?" epecially from those who i didn't see for quite a while..and as always I would reply " It was a learning process everyday."

2. I just past the first trimester and appetite is getting better. praise to Allah.

3. Hari Raya was fun although I felt tired all the time but I tried not to let it hinder me from having the fun.

4. I only fast for a few day during Ramadhan but was quite grateful that at least i manage to fast..

5. Work is as usual and I am very fortunate to have a very understanding boss. She even took the trouble to do some of my cases. Thanks boss!

6. I just came back from PAC (PTD Assessment Centre). It was not for recruiting new officers but this time to assess us for promotion consideration. Exhausted esp mentally plus I have a flu plus the occasional nausea. A lot of analysing, discussing and talking. It ended with an interview which I don't think I did that well. But as my husband said " Rezeki di tangan tuhan.. bukan mereka," when I broke down feeling unstable and really tired after one of the session. Lucky he was there too.

pic: tudung pun dah senget. It was nearly 1 am and we're still in the meeting room discussing about a development project supposedly worth RM25 million for 46 hectare of land to be presented the next evening.. aiyoo..

weekend getaway - SABAH

2009-07-30T08:17:00.012+08:00

Day 2

The next morning after breakfast, Abang cc fetches us to go to Kundasang as we planned at about 11.30am. The winding roads up the hills made me dizzy and to make it worst, I just had my big breakfast. Woohoo.. I couldn’t help it that I threw up at two incidents on the way up. Abang cc suggested that we open up the window since we were already up on the hill so I could have some cool fresh air.. hahahaha…(malu I) But it was indeed a good idea.. I felt wonderful as the cool breeze touched my face in addition to a splendid view of Sabah hillside, the green valleys with lush vegetation. Priceless! There are many wooden huts along the roadside for the locals to sell their product mostly freshly picked vegetables.

We arrived at the Poring Hot Spring in Ranau at about 2 pm. There are pools of warm water supplied from the hot spring for tourist conveniences. And it is quite impressive that there are even chalets with private pool for those who wish to still have a dip in the hot spring pool but need some privacy. I like!

On the way back we went to Kinabalu Park. Not to climb the mountain of course but to at least catch the glimpse of the peak. Pity us it was so cloudy and foggy and we waited and waited but the clouds doesn’t seem to go away. Hmmm. Better luck next time maybe.

Thank god that I didn’t throw up at all on the way down. We made a quick stop at one of the wooden hut by the road where Abang cc bought jagung pulut meanwhile we bought some local rice. Saje nak try

Later in the evening, we had a scrumptious seafood platter at Gayang Seafood Restaurant for dinner. Gila best. All the fishes, crabs, lobsters, prawns, and shells or were still very much alive in aquariums. We just choose what we like, and how we like them to be cooked. There are this lobster so big that it tentacles or misai was like 13 cm long kot.

I ate like nobody business since this was one of my goals coming here which was to indulge me with fresh seafood. Burrpp!!. The ABC here was also very delicious and cheap. Tak kedekut susu dan sirap. We had to tapau some of the food since there are too much of it and there are only 4 of us. We had so much fun… cc had a lot of story to share with us. And we also had a good laugh. I also realized that cc always said “The meeting now adjourn” whenever we parted. How big the influences of work had done to her. Hahaha.

Day 3

On Sunday morning, radin arrived at the lobby sharp at 9. Huhu.. kalau dah askar tuh askar jugak.. On time gitu. Hahaha. My hubby and I woke up a bit later since we slept with a full stomach last night. Hahahaha .Marah Leftenant kita.

Anyway, we went to Keningau Restaurant for breakfast. Ingatkan radin nak bawak pi keningau betul, rupanya restoran jer..keh keh.. Finished eating, we went to visit Wahid at the staff quarters in Polytechnics KK.She just gave birth to her second child, Mariam about 20 days ago.

radin, wahid n me

You know what, radin haven’t met wahid since 1994 and it was like 15 years ago. Kui kui..tak padan duk dekat. We had a good laugh catching up. I dunno whether wahid was just having some mummy blues or it was just her. She was so funny which is much different of her ustazah like image 15 years ago. Hehehe
cerita dari wahid di sini

After that, Radin brought me and my hubby into the Navy base in Teluk Sipanggar where she works. She lives in the base too. Pity us, the Submarine that Malaysia bought haven’t arrived yet, but there are a few other naval ships. So oklah not many people have the privileged getting a guided tour in a navy base right?.. I forgot to ask radin to arranged for lunch on one of the ship ( dia cakap kalau cakap awal boleh arrange, menyesal gue) so we went to have lunch at mess. My husband and I mingled around with a few other navy officers happened to be having lunch there too. I thought it was Sunday. Haha. Not everybody went out on Sundays is it?

After that, radin sent us back to the hotel as we need to check out. CC n her husband would send us to the airport. On the way there, we did a quick shopping at the Filipino Market.

After checking in our luggage, I just realized that I didn’t have the immigration slip with me.. Jeng.. cuak seposen. We gambled our way to the immigration counter. The officer asked for the slip.

Hubby: aa.. dia misplaced slip tu ,cemana yer?
Immigration officer: Ni first time datang sabah ker?
Silence.
Imm: Hari ni hari minggu. Kalu hilang slip tuh kena report polis tapi takpelah. Lainkali ingat simpan bebaik slip tuh..

Padan muka aku kena lecture.. hahahaha.. nasib baik officer tuh hensem.. keh keh..

The flight was delayed for an hour so we finally arrived at LCCT at 8 30 pm and was home at 9.30pm.

weekend getaway -SABAH

2009-07-28T13:36:00.009+08:00

We have been planning for this getaway since May as many people keep asking about our honeymoon. My hubby said this would be our pre-honeymoon. We were committed to work and taking a leave would mean double work after. Nonetheless, we still very much enjoyed ourselves during this so called pre honeymoon. Hehe

Day 1

Our journey started as early as 10.30 am flight from LCCT. One of my staff agreed to send us to the airport so that he could drive our car back and parked it at the office.

We arrived early at the airport so I took that opportunity to text farah and asked whether we could meet up at McDonald. She’s an Airasia employee; of course she has right of entry everywhere around LCCT and her working hours start at 9 am. Oh, I am jealous!! She said it is ok not wearing mask at the airport since it is an open space but advised us to wear it on the plane, especially if we heard someone sneezing or coughing.

Arriving at Terminal 2 Kota Kinabalu, one of MyHubby’s staff, CC who is working at ILP KK has been waiting for us. CC is a very friendly lady. We went lunch at Sutera Bayu restaurant. I have already eaten on the plane so I only ate roti canai.

CC had to get back to work so she dropped us at the Novotel hotel. It was located at a new development area near Universiti Malaysia Sabah called Alamesra. There were a few hotels and a big mall called 1Borneo in the same building as Novotel. Among the hotels there is Tune hotel. It is further mile from Filipino market (where the usual hotels I normally lodged in when I was in Sabah for work)... I managed to save some money since the Filipino market was far away... clever husband... Now I knew why u booked that hotel: p

tengah:bath tub ada window to see the whole room

After freshen up we leisurely walk to the attached Mall next door. Very much like any other mall. Haha. We decided to have an early dinner. We found an Indian Muslim Restaurant with attractive menus. We were hungry so I ordered Fish Bryani while dear hubby ordered Chicken Bryani and both of us have Madras Tea with milk ( Teh tarik Madras).

We thought we need to exercise a bit after such a heavy meal so we went for a stroll along rows of shop adjacent to the mall and found a thai massage parlor. We decided to give a try since we were quite tired of the journey this morning. I took the full body thai massage while hubby took thai aromatherapy. I was half asleep as it was so relaxing. Back at the hotel, I hit the sack right away while hubby (still very much thinking bout work) went down to the lobby again to check some emails. There was an internet corner at the lobby.

bersambung ok..

Over the Moon

2009-07-13T22:40:00.003+08:00

the bright yellow on the right is the moon and on the left is the street lamp post.

I took this picture in front of our house on our way in after a hectic day at work. I found the moon incredibly big and bright. We could even see the shadow in shape of a rabbit on the moon. I am not sure whether the moon has always been this bright, or it is just us busy occupying ourselves with something else that we didn't seems to notice it before.

Sister's Keeper

2009-07-06T12:10:00.004+08:00

Have you read "My sister's Keeper" - a novel ?
I'm currently half way through..and I think it's sad.

Life is complicated .. nothing we can do about it.
We can only do what we think is right and it doesn't mean the best step at all.

ps: the movie will be out soon!

" saya tengok tekak cik ada merah sedikit yer.. jadi minum air banyak-banyak .."
" demam belum lagi ni tapi saya rasa kalau malam-malam mesti rasa nak demam kan?.."

owh saya suka doktor itu.. tak macam setengah doktor..tanya jer kita kenapa pastuh terus tulis prescription ubat tanpa pegang or check langsung.

Last weekend..Pirates n I went to Perak. Early Saturday morning..we headed up north and arrived in Batu Gajah just in time for the bersanding ceremony of Pirates' officemate. I didn't quite remember her name. But she was not a typical bride. Mostly bride would be very shy, graceful and quite. huhuhu...

After that we went straight to Ipoh. Ingatkan nak singgah Kelly's Castle.. tapi panas..so malas.. huhu

After checking in, we went to Ipoh Parade.. huhu..saja .. I want to mengimbau sejarah lama.. tempat-tempat berpeleseran.. hahahahahaha.. but everything was so different..

even Batu Gajah was so different.. Even the road to UTP was unrecognisable. with so many housing areas. huhu. not to mention the campus itself la kan..

The next day was my dear cousin's engagement (pic) .. Funny thing happened. We were supposed to follow our uncle's car to the house but our uncle have miss a turn hence we were back in the middle of the city.. hahaha.. we met the same roundabout thrice. hahahaha.. I texted my sister who was at the front.." Naik haji kita nanti tawaf lagu ni"..

Luckily we arrived before the guy's family arrive.

Going nowhere

2009-04-08T18:36:00.002+08:00

Saya tidak begitu efficient hari ini..tidak productive juga..
saya rasa blank for most of the time today..so blur..
kadang-kadang rasa macam nak pitam..
Saya kurang rehat barangkali..
Tapi saya tidur awal tiap-tiap hari..
Saya sampai rumah pukul 9 atau 10..
Pukul 11 lebih saya dah tidur..awal lah tu..
dulu saya selalu tidur pukul 12 tengah malam.
mungkin tidur saya kurang berkualiti..
owh patut la saya balik pun dah pukul 9-10 malam..

Saya rasa saya pikir banyak sangat benda..
Sampai tak ada satu pun yang saya betul-betul pikir..
saya tak fokus..haha saya tahu .. tapi saya masih tak boleh fokus..

saya asyik duk layan kepala saya blur dan weng..
tadi CC suruh saya hantar borang employee of the month..
sekali saya pi hantar kat dia cover memo untuk borang tuh sahaja.. bukan borang tuh..
Heisshh.. gelak CC...dia cakap "isk isk..Ni belum kahwin lagi"

Penat dah saya.. balik cari vitamin lah.. Vitamin apa kasi energy boost yer?.. Vitamin B eh?

Normal eh?

2009-03-31T20:52:00.002+08:00

People normally cry when they feel safe.
A doctor said these in Oprah. He was an expert on OCD (over compulsive disease)

oohh.. I cry a lot..sometimes for no apparent reason. I just feel like crying.
I think it was like a dose of vitamin shot. once in a while i just need to cry. and after that I will feel relieve. and breath.

Waive ? Lambai? ape ape jer....

2009-03-25T15:20:00.004+08:00

Have been busy with a lot of things...
Going back n forth from KB.
going shopping.. arrgghhh Everything was soo last minute. hehe
I just hope everything went smoothly later.

I am actually still quite dizzy n tired. Pirates and I just came back from Kuching last Monday with 4 huge boxes!!..haha dah terover berat sampai 12 kilogram okayyy..tapi mamat MAS tu 'lambaikan' ajer. oh oh kamu sungguh baik.

I went to Kuching for meetings ..and Pirates took the opportunity to introduce his hometown to me. Owh and I had some good "get-to-know" session with future MIL too...

One fine Saturday morning, Fisy and I went to Aquaria KLCC. woohoo!! It was Fisy idea actually.She said she have been planning to go there for quite some time. So since I didn't really have any plan and Pirate was outstation so I tagged along.

nampak cam budak tak?

The staff at the Aquaria ticket counter thought we were students.AUuuww.. Did we looked that young?..haha.. ye lah ye lah ..fisy kan kecik comell.. But we did act like children in there. Got Excited about everything..haha. Although the place wasn't that big..I would say the attitude we had towards it make the trip was so much FUN.!!

owh ..look!! The Stingray is Huge!!!

I touched everything that can be touch. tapi belangkas tu agak geli sedikit..Kaki2 dia yang duk kuis-kuis tangan mengingatkan aku pada kaki lipas.. eeeee.

HAaaa..This is how big a shark's jaw can be. Sekali ngap ..habis lah nolee satu badan. hehehe

We were there for a few hours and managed to watch all feeding sessions especially the piranha and the most exciting of all the sharks feeding session. But the tiger shark that we were waiting for didn't come to eat .Maybe it didn't feel hungry

Owh the trip was fun plus we learned quite something bout our oceans and the creatures in them. fascinating

I was searching for songs and downloading a few last few days.I came across this song by Hujan. It sounds like a cartoon song..with toing toing..huhu... but the lyrics kinda interesting using the Sarawak dialect.. owh u know i need to learn it sooner or later.. haha

i like the chorus..and surely pirate helped me to understand it.. I only know the first line..hahahahaha

the chorus:

Mena mek x bulak (sungguh aku tak tipu)
Kawen jak ta duak (kahwin ja kita berdua)

"eh, kalau pilotnya di sini, siapa bawa kapal terbang??"

Hari ni hari terakhir kami di Bandung. Kami check-out awal pagi dan terus ke Kartika Sari.Perjalanan hari ini adalah dengan menggunakan coach Pak Sani dan pak supir hari ini bernama Pak Yukdi.

Di Kartika Sari, masuk sahaja saya terus ke kaunter dan meminta 2 brownies cheese spesial (perisa cheese dan coklat with sprinkle of parmesan cheese), 2 pisang molen (pastry berisi pisang) dan sekotak brownies kukus.Fuuhhh gayaknya macam sudah biasa aja padahal cemana rupa pisang molen pun aku tak tau. Harum sekali kedai itu dengan bau brownies..Perut yang kenyang pun rasa lapar..nyumm. Harga semua yang saya beli dalam Rupiah 200 000 saja.

pisang molen

Selepas itu kami memulakan perjalanan ke Jakarta. Perjalanan mengambil masa 3 jam. Rupanya ada tempat bernama Subang di Indonesia..hihi..Sesampai di Jakarta, kami terus ke Mangga 2 (mall yang suasananya seperti Sungei Wang Plaza, KL) kerana masih awal.waktu itu kira-kira jam 12 tengah hari. Kami makan di foodcourt.Saya memesan Nasi Ayam Penyek(Ada ayam kampung bakar, sambal yang besh, sup sayur) dan saya tambah tempe goreng. Selepas itu kami pusing-pusing di sekitar Mangga 2 sampai sesat2 tak tahu jalan keluar.haha.

comel kan?

Jam 3 lebih kami bertolak ke Lapangan Terbang Soekarno-Hatta. Nish n Lalan perlu check-in awal kerana penerbangan mereka lebih awal. Kami melepak sehingga kaunter check-in dibuka. Ecah dan Mjid keluar ke bandar semula kerana penerbangan mereka subuh keesokkannya.

Tidak ramai penumpang di dalam kapal terbang.Kami boleh duduk sesuka hati di mana kami suka. Saya n Nadya, adik si Fish ...ralit duk membelek gambar2 yang kami ambil sepanjang di Bandung. Tetiba announcement Kapten penerbangan.. alaa yang dia perkenalkan diri tu..

"Tuan-tuan dan Puan-puan , Selamat datang ke penerbangan bla bla... saya Mamat bin mamat (bukan nama sebenar) kapten anda bersama Pegawai Pertama Tg. Petra" .

Menjerit saya.. "aaaa tu sepupu aku".

Kebetulan waktu itu tengah berbual dengan pramugari ..saya minita dia kirimkan salam dan panggilkan sepupu aku ittew..huhu. Owh saya panggil dia Chik je. sekejap dia datang. terkejut tengok aku. hahahaha kemudian Lisa boleh cakap" eh, kalau pilotnya di sini siapa bawa kapal terbang??" hahaha

Teruja beb.. tak pernah saya naik terbang yang pilotnya saudara sendiri...arghhh sungguh teruja.Selamba kami bergambar-gambar. Chik cakap dah nak sampai so dia tak boleh lama. Huhu saya sampai rasa semput sebab terlampau excited.huhu.

Kami mendarat lebih kurang jam 11.00. terus mengambil bagasi.Tett n Hamim dah tunggu saya di Pintu 1.Nasib baik tett telefon. Telefon ku sudah kehabisan bateri dan disekat. haha.lupa bayar bil. Kami kemudian singgah dulu di Oldtown Cyber jaya minum kopi dan makan brownies yang saya bawa balik ittew.Sampai kul 2 pagi kami bergosip. Malam itu saya tidur di rumah tett jer dengan hamim.

brownies cheese spesial yang terus dipotong..baru beberapa jam jejak Malaysia

bergosip sampai pagi

9.2.2008

"Tak tahulah bangun ke tak esok nak gi kerja ni"

Aku bersarapan dengan tett dan hamim di kedai mamak di Ekuin sementara menunggu majid dan Ecah sampai. Bila Majid beritahu derang dah sampai, saya memecut ke airport. haha. hantar majid ke rumah dan kami pun pulang. Selepas lunch saya dan ecah ketiduran sampai petang. Maghrib tu Ajah dan adiknya sampai. Ajah nak amik brownies dan pisang molen yang dipesannya. Kami keluar ke Jusco dan makan malam di Restoran Baling. Saya perlu tidur awal hari ini kerana esok kena kerja.. erk kerja.... alaaaaaaa boringnya....

"Pak, kebaya warna belacan ada pak?"
"Belacan tu apa ya?"
"Erk takde belacan eh sini?"

Hari ni saya bangun awal. Nish pun dah tak boleh nak tidur. Jadi kiterang duduklah layan TV sambil tunggu masa nak breakfast. Di sini breakfast perlu diorder pada malam sebelumnya dan boleh pilih sama ada hendak makan di restoran atau dihantar ke bilik.

Pagi ni kami akan ke Chihampelas atau Chiwalk. Banyak deretan F. O. S di situ. Aku jalan-jalan cari t-shirt jer. Pastu cam dah tak tau nak beli apa. Last-last kiterang amik cab dan ke Pasar Baru.haha. Saya ingat nak cari kebaya yang tett pesan. Warna belacan. Payah. Last-last beli kaler lain. hihi.

Lepas pusing-pusing, Saya, fisy n nadya lunch di foodcourt. Semalam saya tak makan nasi tutug oncom tuh, so hari ini saya try bersama teh manis. Harga Rp 14 000 jer. Dalam kul 4.30 petang kami pulang ke hotel berehat. Kemudian saya, aimi dan fisy keluar semula sebelum Maghrib ke Bandung Indah Plaza.dan Matahari (a mall), Jalan Dago.

Di sepanjang jalan di hadapan kedua-dua kompleks ini penuh dengan deretan penjaja DVD.. tak tau laa haram ke tak ntah. polis ada jer di sekitar situ. Macam kat Feringghi. Gerai-gerai ini beroperasi dari jam 4 ptg hingga 11 malam. Habis borong Cd, kami berlari-lari anak pulang ke hotel, memandangkan hujan semakin lebat. tapi sempat lagi singgah Holand Bakery untuk beli roti ecah. :p

7.2.2009
"Busuk weh bau aper nih?.." "cam kentut"
"Bau belerang gunung berapi tu kot"
"haa time nih saper nak kentut oklah .. dah terkaber dengan sendiri hehe"

Pagi ini kami akan ke Tangkuban Perahu. Perjalanan mengambil masa 30 minit hingga 1 jam. Jalannya berbukit-bukau dan melalui kawasan yang mempunyai pemandangan yang kehijauan dan cantik.

Sepanjang jalan ada gerai-gerai menjual arnab. Sama ada yang masih hidup atau pun yang telah dijadikan sate. Dipanggil Sate Leleng. Leleng tuh arnablah kot.

Bayaran masuk ke kawasan kawah ialah Rp35000 seorang. Sampai di atas rasa semakin sejuk dan berangin. Nasib baik saya bawak jaket "koya London" tuh. Pertama kali saya melihat kawah gunung berapi. Busuk. sesekali angin berhembus sampai nak terbalik jugak lah aku. Tudung toksah cakap ah..takleh kontrol lagi. Kemek.

Setelah puas melihat pemandangan dan bergambar kami meneruskan perjalanan turun bukit ke Sari Ater ..the Hot springs. Ramai orang. Yang menarik di tepi-tepi kolam-kolam dan sungai itu, terhampar tikar-tikar. Ingatkan boleh main duduk jer.. sekali kena bayar laa. huhu. Ada pulak penjual ais krim yang asyik duk mengekor kami.. puas mengelak.. last-last kami beli juga. Setelah puas merendam kaki, kami bertolak pulang.

Sampai di bandar, separuh dari kami mahu ke Pasar Baru manakala separuh lagi akan ke rumah Mode. Setelah drop mereka di Pasar Baru kami pergi makan dulu di Warung Nasi Ampera. kedai makanan sunda yang menyediakan lauk-lauk secara buffet. Di meja sudah tersedia air teh tawar dan ulam serta sambal free. Sedap. bleh laa lawan Nasi Tutug Oncom tuh.

Di rumah Mode kami shopping sakan dan pulang ke hotel. Saya makan Jagung cheese malam tuh. Ecah tolong belikan di gerai-gerai tepi Jalan DAgo tuh. sedap.

arghh sebelum tido .. kena packing esok pagi-pagi dah bertolak ke Jakarta.. huhu
Good Bye Bandung. I'll be back..... soon.

"Wah comel jaket..mung ingat nak gi London ke?"

Penerbangan kami ke Jakarta, Indonesia hari ini jam 9.30 pagi. Saya dan housemate telah bersiap-siap seawal jam 5.30 pagi dan terus ke rumah Majid. We are supposed to pick him up, tapi dia lambat bangun. haha Ecah terpaksa keluar dan mengetuk pintu rumah memandangkan lampu ruang tamu kelihatan masih menyala. Rupanya Majid yang tertidur di bawah. Sementara dia mandi, kami tumpang sembahyang subuh.

Kami ke pejabat dahulu mengambil Kak Jue yang akan menghantar kami. Sampai di KLIA, saya dan Majid terus beratur untuk check-in. Ecah baru tersedar dia tertinggal purse di rumah rupanya. terpaksalah Kak Jue memecut ke rumah untuk mengambilnya. Nasib baik tiket, pasport dan Rupiah Ecah letakkan di beg lain. huhu

Lebih kurang jam 8.30 Kak Jue sampai dan kami berlari ke gate. Gate C jauh . kena naik train lagi. Menjerit saya dan Majid menyuruh Ecah cepat naik train. We were basically running to the gate. Nasib baik sempat.

Penerbangan mengambil masa 2 jam. agak bosan. Sampai sahaja di Jakarta, semua bergegas ke kamar kecil (toilet in Indonesia). Kami kemudian menaiki 2 Toyota Unser ke Stesen Gambir dengan tambang Rp180 000 satu kereta. Di stesen kami mendapatkan tren 1.30 tengah hari , executive coach dengan harga Rp 40 000. Saya juga membeli sim kad SIMpati memandangkan no 013 saya telah mula menghampiri limit dan untuk panggilan jarak jauh amatlah tidak sesuwai. Lupa pulak nak bayar bil sebelum berlepas. Oh Sim kad itu berharga Rp25 000 dan mendapat pulsa (kredit) percuma sebanyak Rp5000.

Perjalanan menggunakan keretapi amat menarik kerana melalui kawasan tempat tinggal penduduk jakarta.. ala-ala setinggan gitu. Kemudian melalui perkampungan dengan kehijauan yang menarik.cantik. Dalam Executive coach , kami boleh memesan makanan dan kami juga diberi percuma roti dan air mineral.Selepas 3 jam , kami sampai di stesen Bandung.

Dari stesen sekali lagi kami menaiki 2 avanza ke Hotel Karmilla, hotel penginapan kami . Perjalanan kira-kira 20 minit dengan harga Rp150 000 sebuah kereta. Bilik di hotel Karmilla sangat OK dengan TV 60 ++ channel, air panas untuk minum dan juga air panas untuk mandi.Harga sebilik twin sharing adalah Rp120 000 sebilik. Setelah semua orang freshen up, kami keluar untuk dinner. Kami ke Simpang Raya, restoran seberang jalan dari hotel. kedai makanan padang. Biasalah kalau restoran padang , dia letak nasi dan pelbagai jenis lauk sebaik sahaja kita duduk. Jadi kalau taknak makan lauk itu .. jangan usik. mana-mana lauk yang terusik dikira jual. huhu. Semua sekali yang kami makan harga Rp280 000 jer.

"Mau beli seragam yer bu?"
"erk ..Iyer seragam nikah..hehe"

saya garu kepala

Esoknya kami bersarapan di hotel perlu di pre-order malam sebelum dan seterusnya menahan Angkutan di depan hotel untuk ke Pasar Baru dengan tambang RP3000 seorang. Saya terus mencari kedai membuat kartu undangan (kad jemputan). Rupanya hanya ada satu kedai sahaja di stu dan belum dibuka lagi named EtnikWedding. ceh gaya orang hotel cakap macam banyak jer kat situ. Sementara menunggu kedai itu buka saya, aimi dan maknya berjalan-jalan. Beli-beli kain.

di dalam Angkutan

Sekali saya lalu kedai ni jual lace.Dia cakap lace japan.agak cantik RP30 000 semeter. Apa lagi .. saya beli dekat 7 pasang siap lining sekali. sampai saya penat dan duduk jer kat bangku. Dah lama sangat, mamat tuh siap pi belikn air botol lagi. Saya duk sengsorang jer borong kain. Aimi dan maknya dah ke tingkat atas dah. huhu puas hati but i wish he was here bleh tolong angkat kain-kain yang i borong itu *wink.

Setelah puas kami pusing-pusing, kami ke tingkat 6. foodcourt. Saya makan mee bakso. sedap supnya tapi masin. kawan-kawan lain makan nasi tutug oncom (ayam bakar dengan sambal yang best dan lain-lain side dishes). Kira-kira jam 4.00, saya ,aimi dan maknya keluar dari Pasar Baru untuk balik ke Hotel. Kena serbu ngan orang-orang yang menjual beg-beg. ala yang 4 segi besar tuhh .. berzip.. huhu takut jugak. Jalan macet (traffic jem) amat waktu tu. Saya mintak pak guard yang duk kontrol jalan tuh tahankan teksi .. huhu. selamat kami sampai dengan tambang teksi lebih kurang RP 120 000 sahaja. After freshen up, saya dan aimi keluar lagi dengan teksi ke toko pak DAli (rajawedding.com) nak tgk kartu dia.. berpusing-pusing juga teksi mencari tempatnya. Siap lalu kem tentera segala.huhu

Saya tak tempah juga. Takleh nak decide since pirate is not here. Tak berani takut over budget . I'm not very good at bargaining. Pak Dali tolong call teksi untuk kami balik.

Tapi kami tak balik right away. since masih siang, kami singgah di Rumah Mode. (factory outlet) cantik tempatnya.. macam spa. .. banyak baju branded dengan harga yang murah. Kami di situ sampai dah maghrib.terus gelabah nak cari angkutan. Kami tanya guard rumah mode tuh. dia suruh seberang jalan.. tapi kami pegi menyusuri jalan untuk melintas tetiba angkutan satu ni berenti. Aimi tanya pegi hotel karmila tak.. dia kata yer.. kami pun naik... lama dia berpusing-pusing sampai satu tempat nih macam market.. dia berhenti lama.. tunggu orang naik.. saya n aimi dah was-was.Mintak aimi tanya kakak sebelah dia. Rupanya kami dah salah. Kami perlu turun dan naik angkutan dari arah yang bertentangan. aduuhh nasib baik cepat sedar. Kalau tak ntah mana-mana kami pegi. Malam lak tuh.

Nasib baik angkutan seterusnya betul dan pak supir itu baik sangat. Kami borak-borak dan dia bagitahu kami di mana sepatutnya turun. Huhu..sampai di simpang traffic light dia turunkan kami. kemudian kami kena jalan sikit untuk ke Hotel. alhamdulillah kami sampai dengan selamat dan kebetulan kawan-kawan baru nak keluar dinner so kami joinlah.

Dinner di Gampoeang Acheh. (Kampung Aceh kot kalu dialih bahasakan). makan nasi goreng daging spesial dan Es teh manis. Harga? +- Rp30 000. Pastu saya dan aimi terus balik hotel. Kami dah kena hujan kena balik awal. takut demam plak. kawan-kawan terus berjalan-jalan.

ps: Tidak dapat saya memenuhi hajat pirate. Ralat tul.

Harum subur di hati
