:: Claustrophobic ::

I was doing ward duty last night. For a full 12hrs. I felt so trapped..

During that 12hrs, I only manage to leave for like 15mins for a breather and some pathetic super cup noodles from CGH 7-11.

I didn't expect to do ward duty so I even went Amore-ing thinking that after the tiring gym session I shall spend the night cuddling my blanket in HQ sleeping but I was wrong, something else was in store for me. So there I was in the cold ward, accompanied by many patients. There are even crazy ones. I seriously wonder how the Cisco can survive that duty. They do it day in and day out.

In that 12hrs, i even have time to think about staff suggestions since my partner and I being untrained, couldn't force ourselves to sleep. The rest of them were all dozing and snoring in the hard chair..

Reach home at 10am today and I welcome my bed. Ayie woke me up 3pm and asked to get ready. We are going to JB to scout around for wedding invitation cards and after scouting around, we decide on the Selanggor ones. Order and have them couriered right to our door steps. Wanted to make the deposit but Maybank Cash Deposit was down.

Met up Su and Bean at Singgah Slalu. Waited for them since we were already inside. Oh Ayie and I even had our dose of massage. Shiokness..

I just reach home bout and hour ago and Hafiz even sempat take pictures on Ayie's bike. He went to watch the wrestling thingy at National Stadium.

So I shall sign off we our photos. Taken by who else. My other sweet half..



My bro posing..Macam ye ye jer dier..



Then he even pillion me lah..



Then I also wanna step terror, I pillion him lak.. I like this pic.. We look good. LoL..



And finally Hafiz macam monyet.. Tgk lah tgn dier..LoL..

So I am off.. Tomorrow going to Ulu Tiram. Ayie's mom ajak me go for one of his relatives..

I am going with my best behaviour.. But then again, I have always been well behaved..Okie I go now before you start puking..

Nitey Nitey...

:: BBQ-ing ::

I had a blast yesrterday at my office welcome and farewell bbq held at Aloha Changi. I was initially lazy to go since it's like so far and I am scared that I would have problems going home. I still have to come to office the next day.

But it turn out otherwise.. Time was passing by very fast when we went shopping. We did everything ourselves. We bought crabs, prawns, chicken, squids, hotdogs, fishballs, otah and many other good stuffs. I wasn't much help at the chalet except for wrapping the corn in foil and the other fishy stuffs leaves me very geli.. So I was arrowed to fry the fishballs..

Haiz.. Tulah, never do all this at home, so everybody was laughing when I was frying the fishballs. The hot oil flying around.. Pain tau when kena my hand.. But my fishballs sold out lah..

I didn't eat that much. I am supposed to be on diet and when my colleagues complimented that I am much slimmer, waduh, happy you...

Time was passing so slowly until Ayie came. He join us after class. Initially he was supposed to stay for like five mins but last minutes changes allows him to stay until everybody pack up and leave. Best Skali..

I just cooked the prawns, crabs, potato, chicken, hotdogs and even stingray for him. He just ate and ate..

Oh marsmallows. I didn't know we are supposed to bbq until they brown. I only found out at the end of the bbq and realise they tasted so good after they browned. Heavenly.

We only pack up at about 12+ and leave for home. I tapau the stingray, chicken and prawns for my forever hungry brother. He gave rave reviews on the chicken.

And now, I am so tired. Legs aching and I am working night later so leaving work at about 12+ today. Rest before I hit the gym at about 6.30pm then after that head straight to HQ. It's three consecutive Fridays working nights..

Classes starting next week. Every Tuesday and Friday. I got the course materials last Monday.



Nicely packed.. and couriered to my house..



Social Psychology II



Abnormal Psychology II.

They didn't send me the Ab Psyc text and I will have to get that next Fri before my class commence. Looks like I can accompany myself with my text tonight for the 3-hr watch duty..

I'm like dozing off... Slipping off my chair..

:: Blistered ::

I am having blisters on my feet all thanks to my new shoes.. I hate new shoes.. They bites..

I had a court case earlier this morning and court shoes are a must for court case. Part of the court etiquette. And due to that, I had to rush to Causeway Point last night to get myself a pair of new court shoes. My old pair, torn and tattered was dump a few months back.

I got one from Charles and Keith. Instead of the conventional court shoes, I wanna step stylo so I bought croc skin lookalike pointy shoes...

The result of my vain-ness... Blisters. Front, back, sides. They seem to be everywhere. Thank goodness Ayie fetch me from Causeway Point. We went to Ubi. Ayie had his bike serviced. There was this sound every time he slowed down.. The guy said maybe the chain is lose so that could be the cause of that clicking sound. We went to Bukit Merah after that to pay his installment then had a late lunch at ABC market.

I had wanted to go Amore-ing but Ayie was making noise. Feet blistered still wanna go. So Amore-ing ditch.

Best sungguh, the time spent together. We are meeting again tomorrow... Yippeee..

:: A gift from Su ::

Okie I know this is like my third entry for the day.. I couldn't help it.. But I believe this shall wrap up my birthday celebration..

Su gift should be the last for today.. If tomorrow got somemore, Alhamdullillah jer lah... kekekke..

Su called me when I was Amore-ing. I only managed to call her back when I am done and she told me to meet her under my void deck. I knew I am getting a present.. Oooohh Super excited you...

So while I was waiting and idling under the void deck, I heard the familiar sound... Bean's bike..

Su wish me happy birthday and then my gift..



Me and Su, posing with my prezzie..

What did I get??



It's Burberry Summer..



Went home and quickly test.. I lioke.. It's like so me.. Fresh, citrus and spicy and everything nice lah.. It's the kinda perfume I'll buy. I like fresh and citrus notes.. The flowery ones are not my type.

Now I can't wait to go to work tomorrow so that I can use my new parfum..

I gonna sleep now.. Super ngantok you...

:: What a way to celebrate ::

We woke up early this morning.. Despite the very late night yesterday... Ayie came over to my place..

As I said in the last entry, I was not expecting anything from him.. So when he called me to open the door for him, I said the door is already opened. Just come in. My parents is in the living room and I need to wear my tudung.. So i was super surprised when I saw this..



My Swenson's birthday cake. Blackforest... All lighted up..



Up Close, the wordings on the cake.. It looks like 16 birthday (How i Wish.., But it's actually 26th birthday.. ) The chocolate melted.. Yalah, he walk from his house so the heat might have caused it to melt..



Complete with Hallmark Birthday card. Ayie loves Hallmark...



The inside of my card..

That was not all.. I even got a gift from Ain, hafiz and mak..



Me cake cutting...



A Baby G.. So now I got myself a brand new watch.. Tu jam jugak wear my new watch...



It's even accompanied by a nice card...



Cute.. Somemore..

A morning full of surprises..

We then left home.. It was raining cats and dogs and there was no taxi in sight.. I tried calling the hotline and I couldn't even get through. So after many desperate attempts calling different taxi companies, we walk to Checkpoint in the rain.. There were plenty of taxis there and we made our way there..

Where were we heading to??



We registered our marriage today.. To be fair, wedding held on his birthday and Registration on my birthday..

There wasn't many people around. We were the 4th couple only. I think it's because of the rain...

The lady helped us with the keying in of data.. We didn't have to key in ourselves.




After making payment, we proceed to the second level.. That is where the interview was conducted..




Us while waiting...



Ayie and I..



My parents and I..

Ayie went in first and then followed by me. Kadi Nor Razak was the one who interviewed us and it was not even scary. we were not even grilled. He asked me if my father is outside. I said yes. He then asked if my father is alone.. I said no, my mom came together with us. So he said, call them both in..

My parents went in for less than 5 mins. And they were out.. Done with our registration..



The up and coming pengantin...



The old pengantin.. kekkee..

Oh we still don't have enough of posing, Ayie suggest that we pose with the ROMM at the background.



Me.... Pretty in white and yellow..



Ayie... Muka ada senyum..

My mom say, you all still sempat take photos.. Of Coz..

We went to have our lunch at Mackenzie... My dad wanted to eat lunch over there so badly..



My dad said the Chicken Rice at this restaurant is undisputed..





Chicken Rice with Hotplate Beancurd and Yu Tiao sotong. The hotplate beancurd is super hot. The gravy was jumping around..

It was really good. The chicken rice is so good.. And the chilli also not bad.. Only the soup not nice..

After we had our fill, we tapao 2 packets of Yu Tiao, 4 packets of Chicken Rice for Ain, Ira, Hafiz and my mom. 2 packets of Chicken Rice for Ayie mom.

We took a cab home and then My mom suggest that we go to Sheng Siong. So my mom and my dad went to the van while Ayie and I went up. I quickly change since Ayie wanna follow my parents to Sheng Siong..

Shop Shop and off for home..

It was definitely the most memorable birthday. Despite being simple and laid back..

Time to take a rest now.. Going Amore later.. To all who wish me Happy Birthday.. Thanks a lot.. I really appreciate it..

Adioz..

:: Happy 26th Birthday ::

It's my birthday today.. I am like 26 years old now.. Not sad at all yet happy that Alhamdullilah, Allah panjang kan umur I to celebrate my 26th birtday...

It is just a simple celebration.. Ayie treat me to dinner at Singgah Slalu which consist of Nasi Goreng Daging Merah for him, Nasi goreng Ayam Goreng Kunyit for me, Tom Yam Soup and Fried Kailan for us..



My birthday spread... I even got shissha..

My dinner is not in a posh restaurant nor celebrated lavishly. I understand that Ayie is saving very hard for our wedding... I am contented...

At the strike of midnight, he wish me Happy Birthday with his wishes for me.. Ain was the second to wish me Happy Birthday, Hasinah the third, Li Hua fourth, my mom fifth and man the sixth... eh wait.. Nor wished me Happy Advanced birthday earlier.. She's leaving for her honeymoon in Krabi so she called to wish me first..

I told Ayie there might not be any wedding gifts for him too since I am also saving and we are getting married on his birthday.. So I suggest that I might just tie myself with a big ribbon and present myself to him as his birthday gift.. kekekek.. Wishful thinking..

I had my shooting practice and I did very well... 96/100. 2 bullets missing to I don't know where.. My grouping was also good.. Insyallah I would get $200 if I keep this up. I have always love shooting. I started to shoot since Sec 3. From the old Smith and Weeson to the now Taurus.. Maybe I like it because I am good at it.. You always like something you're good at mah..

My colleagues from other units asked me about my wedding preparations.. All the abangs abangs.. So far alhamdullilah, bit here and there.. Su would be helping me with the Sirih Dara and Henna.. While I am gonna borrow her tempat pahar.. The flowers, I would just buy in JB. Four months plus left to the wedding.. 127 days to be exact...

I went Amore-ing.. And, one of the girls there said I lost weight.. Kekke. She have not seen me for quite sometime and she said there are differences.. She is the second to say I lost weight today.. The first was a colleague from Police.. Yippe..

I would be going Amore-ing again later today.. Ayie have class at night so I shall just go Amore-ing since I have nothing to do.. Perhaps two classes..

Need to wake up early later today. Another day towards a new chapter of my life.. So I better get some sleep..

Salamz..

:: Back from Japan ::


I drop by Kak Linda's place in Admiralty.. She's back in Singapore for good. Finish unpacking and is comfortably settled.

Bought Chappati for Abg Iman and us for dinner since Abg Iman loves Chappati.. Kak Linda prepared grilled chicken tortillas for us.

They have a pet kitten which already looks like a cat named Alber. Goodness, it was so mischievious. I was scared, really scared when it ran to me..

Now I'm looking forward to shopping with her. Online shopping that is and our cupcake project is coming up.. Hopefully we will come up with something real nice..

Here's some shots taken at her place..




Ayie, finishing his food..



Shasta with pet kitten, Alber



Kak Linda Cleaning up..




Abg Iman, making us some coffee..



And me.. Helping to clear the table..

It was late when we left her place.. Time really flies..

I brought back my Japan mug which I actually stole from the highway kiosk on my way to Narita airport.. Kekke.. Sowie.. But it was such a memorable piece..




I also got my Victoria Secret Body Mist. Just three bottles since another one was out of stock.. I have Vanilla Lace, Love Spell and Pear Glace.. I like all but I think Vanilla Lace will make me smell like a cake.. Kekkee..

Not using any one of them at the moment since I'm saving them for the hantaran gifts instead.. It's back to work tomorrow. Can't wait to take off so that I can rest nicely at home.. Next week, Maybe next Monday, I'll take off..
Better go to bed now.. I don not want to take a cab to work tomorrow..

:: My Best Friend Wedding ::

I started the day very early today. Early since I only slept at 3am. Watched Hikmah 3 with my mom for a while before I surrender to my bed..

Here is a shot of Nor during her solemnisation last night..



For more pics, click :: here ::


I almost thought that I could not get to witness the solemnization since we were rushing to buy the gift and then rush back home to wrap the gift whuile Ayie have his dinner and chit chat with my parents. Then we left home, stop at An Nur for Maghrib prayers and rush to Tampines. Lost our way and my hands are numb trying to balance and hold the big gift while on the bike..

Alhamdullilah, she has officially changed her status from single to married.. Congrats best friend..

The note on my card to her..

Dear Nor and Hafyz,

Today marks the day you embark on a beautiful journey. A new chapter in your lives. A chapter titled marriage. May Allah bless you during this journey so that it would be smooth sailing despite any storms and may this union last till eternity. Insyallah..

From
Ayie & Rose..

After Nor's solemnization, we rush back to Woodlands to meet Su and Bean.. Off to JB.

Then today.. At 12.15pm, met Ayie and we are off to Hishal's wedding at Blk 115 Marsiling Rise.. Chop Chop eat then off to Nor's place..

Watch the whole sanding thingy. It was nice with tarian and a performance by bag pipers..



Nor and Hafyz.. Looking good in blue..

For more pics, click :: here ::


We then make a move to Bedok for Ruzaiman's engagement. After that Ayie drag me to Expo. I didn't tell him about the Wedding and travel plus design and decor exhibition in expo since I did not have the intention of going but he somehow managed to find out..

We went over with no intention of buying anything.. But we fall in love with something and end up buying..

It all started at King Koil.. We were persuaded by the salesperson to buy this divan set. It cost about $1500 after discount but Ayie simply love the other one which is the soft mattress going for about $2500. I thought it was too costly.. We end up walking one round. Went out to discuss before we decide maybe we would buy. My mom was like buy lah if you two likes it..

Then we went up but we divert and went over to Slumberland since Ayie loves another set which I secretly like but don't dare hope since it looks so so expensive.. But Ayie was determine to ask..

Yes it is expensive and after talking to them, I said, we need time out. We would come back if we want it.

We went out, calculate, ponder, then calculate.. Called my mom.. We both like it but a second opinion is better..

What my mom said helps me a lot..

She said, if we both like it. Buy. We are going into alam perkahwinan and it is special so we should buy if we like the bed and next time if we see something else that we like but it more expensive or we still can't forget the bed, we will regret.

So upon hearing that.. We both walked in and we bought the bed. But not before asking for more freebies. We got two posture pillows, one mattress protector and two pillowcase which is on display and the one set they have.

They had to ask their other boss to see if they can give it to us since it is not for sale and we really like it..

Alhamdullilah, we got it...

So come November we are both proud owners of.....



The Royal Crown...

We are both happy despite being quite broke.. Kekeke..

At the moment, I shall be contented by just imagining how nice it would sleeping on that bed...

:: K3 meet R1 ::

We finally meet. Su and Me that's it. We met up after I went to Nor's solemnization. The solemnization would be another entry coz the blur and forgetful me forget my phone and now all the pics is with Ayie.

Nor is gorgeous in white... I was also choked with emotions when I salam her mom and her mom cried. Her photographer is also the same as ours so they were like teasing us when we take photo with the newlyweds.. LoL.. They say we tunggu turn jer...

Talk to Su about the wedding preparations and my wedding is less than five months away. Seems so fast... Kekeke.. Su would be helping me with the Sirih Dara and henna..

We ate at Sayam and today we kena ketok.. Normally it would cost us RM 60+ but today it was RM83.80. Chet.. So much of a difference. Told Su about the brooches I bought from Ira and she is also interested.. So might be ordering for her also if ader yang she berkenan..



The brooches that I might be getting for my aunts.. Nice?? I told Irah to keep a lookout for the brooches..

Now me going to sleep. Tomorrow, Ayie and I going to 2 weddings and 1 engagement. Monday would be meeting Kak Linda so I think that would be a busy week ahead..

:: Discharged ::

My desktop is 'discharged' finally.. yippe I am so happy.. Now that there are one laptop and one desktop.. There won't be the mad rush for the coms now.. I love the discharged pc coz it is like brand new...

Ayie is back last night... YIpppeeee....... I am so happy.. He told me about his aunt who passed away suddenly and how he was upset about it... He arrived at about 9.15pm and at about 9.45pm, he fetch me and we went for a drive...

We went to Arab Street and then East Coast. I drove for like a while and my driving skills, I think it's worst than those L plates... LoL.. Rusty, somemore the car he managed to rent was an old one, so I was like scared when changing the gear..

At Arab Street, He told me that life is so fragile, you will never know when Allah wants to take it away from you. So we must ensure that our lives is filled with amalan amalan (I donno what is this in English) and make the most of what you have now without grumbling. Appreciate the people around us since we only realise how much they meant to us only when they are gone.. Haiz... Long lecture there but I know there's a truth to every word he said..

This week is a busy week for me with a lot of field work and if today we finish early, I might meet up with Su and we shall get Nor's present for her wedding. I wanna buy a comforter set for the soon to be newly weds.. You can never have enough of bedspread as you can change them every now and then....

I'm like super duper excited on her up coming wedding.. When I said super, I really mean like super super..

My old boss came over.. Not really boss lah, he was attached to us for a while only. They going for lunch and he offered me coffeebean.. He knows I like CoffeeBean... Their new expresso chip is good lah.. So sedap.. Who knows he really buys me coffeebean eh... Alahai..

Ayie would be on leave today and tomorrow and unfortunately I am not able to accompany him since I am busy.. He wanted me to take leave so he can spend time with me and look for my shoes.. My wedding shoes still haven't buy..

I am also looking around for our short honeymoon. Phuket and Phi Phi Island seems good. Just a short 5 days 4 nights kinda trips. To relax and unwind. I wanted Bangkok but Ayie said Bangkok anytime can go.. It's honeymoon and he wants somewhere tranquil and relaxing.. Sandy beaches and all. Aiyo come back we both chao da... If anybody have other destinations perfect for short holiday.. Tell me okie..

I wearing my mom's Gucci perfume.. Suddenly wanna smell different so kebas abit lah.. LoL..

Okie, I wanna do start reading before I start work..Adioz..

:: Show me the Money ::

Show me the monies.. Many Many monies....

Tonight, at about 11.30pm, a lot of civil servants including me and those in the Ministry of Home Affairs, would have swollen bank accounts.. It is time of the year where we will all be getting out mid year bonus. I am not very sure of the percentage, I am not too bothered. Get happy, No get also no rezeki.. Make so much noise also still won't get so don't bother to make noise..

Despite getting all the monies, I am not allowed to spend them. As usual, all this surplus goes right into my savings account. I am only allowed two lingerie with my bonus this year. That's all. I have school fees to pay end December and the coming wedding would definitely use up a bulk of my savings too..

Haiz...

Ayie would be getting more since he would be getting his retention fund and I'm sure that he would also be saving his. So we both sama sama save lah.. He already said that I might not be getting any present for my birthday this year.. I told him okielah though like sad a bit lah.. I said your birthday I give me, as your present.. At least present also kan..

My birthday would be in about 8 days. I am turning 26. No.. I am not sad coz to me,age is just a number. I shall age gracefully.. Chey wah.. Anyway, though I am not expecting any presents from Ayie.. To those who wants to get me one, don't be shy okie. I don't mind getting lots.. Kekeke...

To my parents, if you wanna buy, buy me a new camera please. My old one spoil already. A new one would be swell. Kekkeke..

Oh I have one in mind so that shall ease you the pain of searching and thinking..



Ixus 70. There's two colours. The silver one would be more than fine. My mom and dad doesn't read this so Ain your homework is to tell them. Unless you and Hafiz wanna share and buy me one.. Ooooh... I am gonna love you guys so much...

Kekeke.. Okei I shall stop dreaming and get my hopes up high.. Okie the camera is like $499 and is way expensive, why not perfumes then?? I don't mind lots of perfume since I finish three bottles in a year. I am not sure why I use up so much... I just love smelling good. Calvin Klein CK one is good, Ralph by Ralph Lauren is not bad, any one from Escada, I also like.. Or anything citrus and fruity. I no like flowery. Don't buy Davidoof coz I have one now..

Goodness, I am so demanding eh... Kekekke.. Sowie Sowie.. I'm just giving suggestions. I actually don't have anything in mind. Oh a new jacket.. LoL.. I love jackets since my office is freezing..

No Amore for me today since I didn't bring my gear. Yesterday I end up buying new pants. I forget my pants lah. I love my new pants.. So comfy..

Ayie is in Kota Tinggi right now. His aunty over there passed away. Innalillahi Wa innalillahi rajiun. She was having fever and the fever subside but then she just passed away. Allah loves her nore and I am sure she is in the better place. Al Fatihah to her.

I am not sure when Ayie would be back. I do miss him though. Take care dear when you drive back home. Love ya..

I am getting my computer back... Superb..

:: Stadium, Weddings & Birthdays ::

The overdue National Day Closing Ceremony. I won't talk much and just post pictures instead. Many Many pictures..

To start off.. It was a super duper hot day... Freaking Hot... We bought MacDonalds and Ayie had Burger King..

reach the stadium, Super packed. We got ourselves seats on top of the special gallery. That special seat is $40 bucks man..



This family here...



Borrowed us their umbrella..



Ayie become Mat Payung.... Thanks a lot for the payung, a bit cooling...

I gulp down one regular size Green Tea in a jiffy before I gulp down some of Ayie's coke too.. That explains how super hot it was..

Then after some time, Ain and her Nyet came..



Can you spot them amidst the many many people..



Ain's Nyet, Zaki, Ain and I



Zaki's Nyet, Ain, me and Ayie..



Specs on for the Ex Singapore International and M'Sia International Players.. The game was fun and funny all at the same time.. Reliving the good old M'sia cup days..



Ain and I...







Us on top of the Stadium...








Us outside the Stadium..



This guy even fall asleep.. Pitiful.. Must be really tired.. I do enjoy the game though.. It was fast paced and exciting..








The fireworks..





The stadium is finally close. This ceremony would be etched in our memory. Ayie even wanna tell our children about this.. Kekeke..

After the game we head to Al Sheikh for drinks and Sheesha before heading home..

Finally the National Stadium Closing thingy is done..

Next, my parents were doing wedding catering on the 07.07.07 and 08.07.07. It was held at Blk 31 Marsiling Drive. We also took the opportunity to celebrate the July Babies.. And that includes me...Yipppee..

But before that, we attend Ayie's colleague Fazly wedding to ex NYPian Afni. She dorecognise me. Small world huh.. It's like people just somehow know or are affliated to one another..





That's me by the wedding cake.. It was a very nice wedding..The theme was lime green and brown..




The cake that Ain bought..



All lighted up...



Sing Birthday Song.........



Pak Ngah Blow one candle. We must only blow one candle each... There are 5 candles so one for the birthday boy and gals..



Cik Edah and Me...



Bibik blowing the candles..

Cut Cake...



I got smashed..



Closed up..



The culprit and the victim.. LoL.. I was trying to avoid till Awang came.. Then band.. The cake was on my face..

It was so fun..

Congrats to the wedding couple. Shayarna I think is her name.. But Boo on the decor company for doing a bad job.. Pity her.. I can imagine she must be so stressed up on Friday when the decor company did a bad job.. They only complete the decor on early Sunday morning at about 3am.. Dasyat kan.. It's not like putting simple table skirting is too difficult..

Nevermind gal, Insyallah this journey that you've embarked is blessed by Allah till eternity...

Phew.. I am finally done.. Should I just go home now..
