:: I've been Lazy ::

Oh no.,.. my last post was on the 11 December 2009. That was almost 2 months ago.. It was on Su's birthday.. Well Well..

I seriously feel like chucking my blog aside and just rely on facebook but facebook are mostly photos and no words so I don't get to express how I felt..

I think I can contribute to me not updating my blog due to inaccessibility.. I no longer have access to blogger or Multiply from office which makes it difficult.. Even if I do have access, I am now too busy at work. It's really crazy... Sometimes I think it is so much easier to be a housewife.. No mental stress and emotional stress that you get at work.. You can sleep at night without worrying about the phone ringing any time... I get jolted out of whatever I am doing when my phone rings.. And Ayie will go, you kene keje??

But on the downside, I don't get a lot of money if I don't work.. I won't be able to save and also buy things that I want or need.. So I guess the emotional and what nots will be there to stay... I think being a housewife can also drive me crazy.. I need some challenge...

'Aqiil is growing up real good.. That little boy really lights up my life... The things that he does puts a smile on my face... I have this feel good feeling whenever I am with him... Oh and he stated walking already.. one week after he turns 15 months old.. So it has been almost a month since he walked..

This is like the first video I took when he started walking.. This boy is a dancer.. The moment he hears music, he will bop his head up and down.. And he will baby talk sings... I think his got his talent from Ayie since I am hopeless at singing..

Then there is this other video of him, jumping around.. I don't know what made him jump that way but I find it real funny..

And there is another video of him, going for a ride.. Please forgive my voice.. Ayie wanted to knock me down..

We are gonna do this again and maybe we might even go further.. Maybe to Kak Linda'a Place..

I love this photo of 'Aqiil and Ayie taken on New year Eve at Kak Linda's place.. We had this so called impromtu countdown which end up being so fun..

And also this pic with my grandma...



He adores my grandma.. He will lovingly call her Oyang and showers her with kisses and even wants her to carry him which of coz is impossible though my nenek sometimes oblige since she adores him just as much..



My boy all grown all... Can you be a baby darling.??

And my sis got engaged on the 29 January 2010. I got engaged on 28 January 2007. See exactly three years and 1 day.. She will get hitched in Nov, Insyallah..



Isn't she gorgeous..

The whole gang sans Hafiz who was in camp.. We need to photoshop him in.. lol..

'Aqiil was like bapak pengantin. Dierlah paling sibok..

And I am a better cook.. Seriously.. Ever since the kitchen is up.. I have been trying my hand and cooking different dishes and I got them right finally after several trials and error..So now I can cook lemak cili padi, asam pedas, sambal tumis, curry and soups and noodles...

I whip up all this dishes...

Fried tumeric squid, sweet sour fish, cereal prawns, black pepper beef, Baby kailan with oyster sauce, quail eggs and fried egg tofu soup and chicken rice..

Specially for this three beautiful people in my life... Celebrating our 20 and 16 years of friendship. I know Lihua first at Primary Three when I transferred to Si Ling Primary.. Then Ezzam was also in the same school but we wasn't close.. Hasinah was in Qihua Primary which was my ex primary school but come Secondary School, despite being in different classes, we stayed close friends till today..

I even tried baking bread...

The recipe said 1 tbs of salt and the bread turns out salty. It's a jewish bread which they make during religous ceremony so perhaps that explains why... Anyway, I bought wholemeal flour and bread flour so I can make more breads.. The kitchenaid helps.. I just dump, follow instructions, prove and knead... Voila.. Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside..

I made Orea cheesecake for Lyn, Kak Mid and Noren and a colleague who tried Lyn's share gave rave reviews.. He was promoting my cheesecake to the other colleagues and even wanted me to sell him some.. Oh I am flattered..

Wow..I actually blabbered quite a bit here.. So hopefully my hardworking bug will come real soon and I will update more..

Tomorrow night I will be on 12 hours shift... Oh 12hrs is like peanuts since I clocked 28hrs of work.. Straight work.. No sleep.. I was almost zombified..

To all my Chinese friends.. Gong Xi Fa Cai..

:: Poof ::

I think my blog is collecting dust. And I think the amount is just as much as those in my house.. My kitchen reno is finally over.. Not without any headache though but they were very professional in handling it and I applaud their designs..

I will upload pics once there are ready and I am now just waiting for Cik Yuni to come with the massage and then we are off to Ikea.. Time to accessorize our kitchen. I am not sure how deep we are gonna burn our pockets..

And I shall endure just another 4 weeks before Ayie and I set sail to Batam.. Near near only.. It's 'F' trip and he's bringing me.. I hope the I Hotel looks as good in real life and I am sure to bring my swimming suit... Just hope the water looks welcoming...

Anyway, I applied for two jobs.. I am so not sure if I should do this but well, we can't stay too long in our comfort zone..

And finally... Happy 14 month old to my son.. And to Zaki.. Get well soon okie...

:: Vroom Vroom Hatyai::

I'm actually very tired but I think a little blogging won't hurt. Maybe a little but not much..

Anyway, I reach home this morning at about 5am. We had a lil road trip to Hatyai... It was a long long ride... 19 hrs from home to Hatyai and 16 hours back....

We met up at 9pm on Friday night. I was already running a crazy schedule in the day. Cleared the kitchen from 9am, then off to the bank at 10am,to MIL's place at 2pm then to Mak's place. Dropped 'Aqiil and rush to office, get the ICA letter, off to ICA and then numerous unsuccessful calls to friends of friends in the bid to expedite the collection of my passport till Ayie manage to call his cousin and my passport is finally in my hands. Rush home, packed, ate maggi and left the house..

Zila and Bai greeted us at Gelang Patah...



The gals..

At 11pm, the ride started.. It was initially okie but after the first stop, it rained heavily. So heavy that visibility is so low... We had to go slow... It rained till 8am..



Us at Gunung Semanggol..



Ayie and his guys, Yusri and Farizal..



Me, kinda tired at this point of time.. We were at Changlun, very close to the border..



Ayie manage to smile despite feeling tired..

After enduring the long ride,there were some hiccups at the Thai immigration.. Luckily, they manage to settle it..If not, two of our guys might have to turn back..

After the long ride, we didn't even sleep, we walk around town after taking bath.. Tried the traditional Thai massage which I don't quite like.. Maybe I'm more of a traditional urut kinda gal..



In our room.. After this, there's no more photo.. Our battery went kapooot.. But the fun continues.. MOre massages and a trip to the floating market..

Ayie and I ate a lot.. We didn't even shop much..



The view from my room.. On the 23rd floor..



Can you see that red umbrella.. That was where we get our daily supply of fried chicken, sausages, lobsters and all things fried..

Then on our way back, one of our guys skidded.. Alhamdullilah, he was okie.. The bike had scratches and need some work once we hit back home.. Then when I came home, this greeted me..



What happen to my lovely home...

There was dust everywhere...



My kitchen was like this, in the morning and when I reach home just now..



The tiles was already up.. Hopefully the job would end real soon.. Then I can bring home my boy...

I miss that boy lah.. He's like so smart now.. My mom said, he's really clever.. He dances at the sound of music and he's learning how to stand on his own.. The moment we cheered, he tried even harder..

Ain and Irah tried teaching him how to stand with the grunting sounds and all and he imitate them..

Oh Ain just got back from Bangkok and Manchester.. And she had a whole lot of goodies,, That girl just couldn't stop shopping for 'Aqiil..

So now that it's pass twelve.. I'm going to bed..I'm down with cough, flu and sore throat..Good night..

:: If it is good, better, best, what is after best? "::

When I thought I heard was one of the best news this year.. It got even better. So can I say, I just heard the bestest news.. Wakaka.. That doesn't sound right??

Anyway, I wanted to blog but my to much dismay, I am liking my TV more than my laptop. When I search for my laptop on button, I knew something was terribly wrong. I don't even know where the on button was.. Walao-ey.. My office laptop has it's on button at the centre while my home one has it on it's left. I think I am becoming an auntie. Oh no..

Okie on the agenda was'Aqiil's birthday party cum our openhouse last Saturday. 10 October 2009. Okie more like last last Saturday. My apologies to all whom I did not invite. Not that I tak sudi nak invite you all but I wanna keep the invitations to close friends and relatives. Only immediate family and relatives were invited as we did it at home and if we invite like 100s of people, tak muat kan.. Lagipon I segan lah nak invite invite jer..

It was just a simple party. A cake, some balloons and banner here and there.

Two birthday song sang by me and Ayie since the rest of the kids are too young and they are only engrossed on the cakes.. lol.



See I told you so.. Even the birthday boy can't be bothered..



I actually only cut around the cake because I sayang wanna cut 'Aqiil's face..



'Aqiil doesn't wanna take photo... He can't keep stil for more than 5 mins..

And to smash cake on the birtday boy/gal is a tradition..



So his loving Ayah did just that.. And while he did that to 'Aqiil, my siblings were busy sabo-ing my dad who celebrates his birthday on the 13 October 2009.



'Aqiil got a jeep for his birthday courtesy of Atok, Nenek, Aunty Ain and Uncle Hafiz.. Okielah Aunty Irah also for helping keep it a secret.. For the first time, Irah didn't bocor rahsia..

The guests started coming in a 10.30am eventhough it was supposed to start at 2pm. It was real fun... The rush and all.. To those who came earlier.. So sorry, there's only kuih for you all.. The food was a bit late as Papa had to fetch Ain from the airport.. Pics of guests on that eventful day... The last guests left at 1.30am. And we are left with the cleaning up.. kekeke

There was so many presents to open..

I seriously hope they were all mine.. Which of coz is not..



The gifts...

I have graduated...

Yipppeee.. Yabadoo da.. Alhamdullilah..

All the toiling and studying are finally over..



I am indeed jumping with joy..



Thanks to you for giving me all the support that I needed..

And to Ain, Hafiz, nenek, Ira and 'Aqiil who also supported..

I am off to the polyclinic...

:: Teary me ::

I had one of the best news this year. So happy I was, I shed tears upon hearing it. I really hope that this news is a the start to a smooth journey... Insyallah...I am very proud of you babe..

Tomorrow is my convocation.. Yeah baby Yeah... I feel kinda lazy seriously coz it is like so early in the morning.. It was so nice to sleep till 12.30pm today and if Irah didn't come, we might end up sleeping till afternoon. I am like paying back for all the sleep lost.

Anyway, let me post all the pics that was taken after Raya.. I'm a slow mo.. If I don't post now, I might end up accumulating even more pics.

I finally bought 'Aqiil his ride and he loved it.. he was like squeking the moment he rides on it and now whenever we bring it out he would crawl as fast as he could to get to it..



But safety always comes first



So wear your helmet and do not speed...

So last Saturday, since I was kinda bored, I thought, I'll bring 'Aqiil to the playground...Ayie was in school and I had nothing much to do in the as all the household chores are done...



He checked his bike which could support his weight, whenever he decides to stand and jump on it..



Hey Ibu...



He even rode a pony..



Fumble with the slide and decides it is scary...



Happy 'Aqiil.. People commented that he looks cheeky and mishcievious.. He has that 'I am up to something' smile..

Awang and Rin came over to my house later in the evening..



They look good in black kan... Anyway Riz, don't be shy okie next time.. I'll make sure Awang bring you so that we can all get to know each other better..Okie..

Then Last Friday, I followed my mom and dad for HAri Raya since Ayie is working late..



'Aqiil must love driving.. He would go for the steering wheel, meddle with the gear.. Don't be like his Ibu sudah.. Got licence but segan wanna drive.. kekekke

After Nek Ru's place, we went to Zaki's house. 'Aqiil was thrilled to see Kaiyisah and this Kaiyisah also macam clown. She is I year and 3 months old.. She can walk but the moment she saw 'Aqiil, member lupa macam mana nak jalan.. She kept crawling..



'Aqiil sit on the chair, she also wanna sit..



Then when she sit on another chair, 'Aqiil came crawling to her...



And they even had their first kiss... LoL..

Then last Tuesday, I had my Hari Raya at work.. I was super tired as I worked till 4am the night before. Had 3 hours of sleep before leaving for work at 7.30am. Then had some in service before rushing off to get changed for my emcee duties... After that, change back to my jeans and attend a talk by some well known forensic guy, Dr HEnry Lee. Unfortunately I slept throught the talk.. I was dead tired..

I hope I did well for my Emcee thingy.. There was some last minute changes and at times, we had to make do without the script. Even though I did the script, I just couldn't find time to memorize..



Me and the three ladies.. We are often spotted at Vivo.. Lol.



Gadis Gadis melayu yang menawan..

Okie, 'Aqiil is turning 1 this saturday and as we got nearer to the day, he end up falling a lot.. Last Sun he fell and hit his lip on the table. Blood came oozing out. A lot of blood.. Then yesterday, Ayie was cleaning him up after he soiled his diapers and decides to play with him. I was there to take a pic of them when he fell flat on his face. There was some blood which we believe was from his mouth. He was okie afyter bout 10 minutes and was back smacking the glass screen.



This was taken seconds before he fell..

Ayie is trying out his new mop.. We bought the Magic Mop. Actually the Spin and Go $360.



We shall review the mop next time ya..

Now it is time for my ANTM...
