Pusing2 Melaka (pusing sket je tapi)

Muke tak comot lagi, masa pagi on the way gi Batu Pahat

Dah lama tak update about my family kan :)
Nak stori mori la skett

Izz makin besar skarang..makin banyak cakap
Seronok nak bawak die jalan2, sbb ummi ayah sll je busy on weekdays
Tambah lak banyak celoteh die skarang
"Ape tu??" soalan biasa..sume bende nak tanye :)

Last jalan, was at Melaka
Kampung ayah jugekkk
Asalnye pegi Batu Pahat, sbb member SDE kahwin
Pastu direct gi bandar Melaka

Takdela pusing banyak tempat sangat..tambah lak hujan
Ummi sanggup pegi cari seluar kat bazaar, tak kuasa nak pakai kain kebaya dah By the way, Ummi dah muat nak pakai kebaya yg 6 tahun lepas punye hehehe
Dapatla merasa naik menara Taming Sari and River Cruise
Ummi paling suke River Cruise tu..sebab driver siap cerite sejarah melaka, siap lalu perkampungan Melaka (Kampung Mortem), ada banyak view yg menarik, ade jambatan tempat komunis pancung kepala org, ade serumpun (serumpun ke?) bakau yg mmg dibela siap biawak2 skali, and of course pokok melaka (Ummi first time tengok)..
Tp tak amik gambar banyak sangat..sebok tgk keliling je..hehe

Izz excited naik Taming Sari..sume penumpang masuk cabin and cabin dinaikkan sampai atas sambil revolving aroung the tower..mane tak excited dak tu :P

Waiting for our turn..queue nak naik boat panjang gile kottt
Ayah pun sebok tgk keliling x smpat nk bergambar

This weekend kite gi umah mak pengasuh kat Pasir Gudang ek Izz..kite gi jalan2 lagi

The Story of TVXQ (English Ver.)



Just for TVXQ fans whom still in the dark of the truth

and for the other KPOP fans..this story is quite an eye-opener ..crazy fans can also do harm

p/s: Apart from the fact that TVXQ was indeed an incredible group back in my U days..TVXQ also brings back memories of my time with my dear friends Eela, Ifah, Dalila and Kekna..all of us were crazy bout them then (though it was a harmless kind of crazy)..that's why I have such soft spot for them and feel saddened knowing their story

and U-Know has always been mine.. errr.. my favourite :P (tu..dia yg nyanyi plg hujung kanan masa berlima tu and muke mcm Tan Chee Han adhuyaii)

Monologue: Berpada-pada

*saje bg entry sket..kosong nar space ni

All this while, in my time spent blogwalking around, surfing around, korek2 gossip around *eh..
saya faham seperkara mengenai dunia internet yg tak keterbatasan nih

There is a fine line between 'expressing happiness' and 'braggingness'..a so very thin fine line...

unless if that person is likeable and fofular..:) die brag pun org gelak2 suke
cube kalo org tu mmg stok tak disukai?

Life's not a rose garden

Conflicts are such an essential don’t you think? Of life?
It’s troubling, causes havoc, and meltdowns.. But without it one will never arises back
How did I deal with it?
Depends..
But sometimes I do feel that I have the ability to put ignorance at its best
And get the strength to make hard decisions in my life
By being a little ignorant..and stop being the nice person while letting myself get all the hard s**t..and stop thinking too much of what other ppl think (like i’ve always did in my younger years )
Only then did I manage to appreciate myself more..and make the call that is beneficial for me

I don’t know if that’s strength or simply ego
But my rule of thumb
Jadi kuat takpe asalkan jgn org meluat
Org meluat sape pun tanak kawan J ataupun pura2 kawan

This post is inspired from my non-work related activity on my last day of work before Raya Holiday..takde mood nk keja..maka stalking around and ‘terr’ambil tau life conflicts of meaningful people around me..

At this point of life, i think i can say, i appreciate the fact that I’m indeed ageing
It’s not something to be afraid of, but something to be celebrated
Bcos without it, I could never see the world from my perspective like today, could never gained as much experience like i have today, could never make decisions like I have nowadays..and to actually say something back about it..

To my friends and family
Salah silap ampun dipohon
Salam Lebaran
Semoga Allah melimpahkan keberkatan pada kita semua :)


p/s: I want to hold hands with Badrul Amri and grow old together

What to do

What to do when you suddenly find yourself in the midst of haze
Adapt to it, find your way out, slowly at first but with increasing intensity
Ayat semangat untuk diri sndiri yg rase clueless di tmpt baru :P
So much to learn, so much to grab, so much to endure, so much to persevere

Allah takkan bebankan kita with anything we cant manage
So head up! I'll be fine..
This is the path i've chosen in my long career run
Yes, it is a sacrifice, but a sacrifice that will end up the way i planned my life to be InsyaAllah
Bertatih2 lama berlarila
kate nk jd specialist..heh

Dan PJJ ini rasa sweet..aww
Just got back from PG last weekend
Bawak Izz  (ke umminye?) gi jumpe Ayah

Dapat juge Izz tido di rumah Mak pengasuhnye satu malam
Sampai2 depan rumah, Izz dah cakap "Maakk"
Nampak2 A'a anak bongsu Maknye, Izz trus "A'aa"


A'a ckp dgn Maknya: "Mak, kalau kite bela Izz mahal ke murah??" 
sayangnye mereka kat Izz, terharu rasa

Lepas raya ni, Ayah dah tak kat PG dah
Ummi bawak Izz gi Lumut plak di hujung mggu melawat Ayah kalo die tak balik Shah Alam
hoho..boleh la bercuti2 Malesia skali

sabar ye hati
just for a few years
awal2 masuk industry OnG ni mmg dah tau that one day this kind of thing would happen
but i've my own plan
just follow it thru, InsyaAllah

*Teringat ayat yg Syazwan tampal kat bilik rumah sewa die di Mesir
         "Orang yang bersabar itu disayangi Tuhan   -Kirana"

Larat ke Naza?

saya suke baca blog adik saye arini
time kasih abah
naza ni tak mcm adik2 yg mudah menunjukkan emosi dn pandai borak2 dgn abah
tp mungkin sbb naza ni sulung yg buat jd gitu
luaran keras, degil, garang
masa zaman rebel dulu pun sgt rebel
tp bile dah rasa jd parent sekarang
baru paham susah senangnye
dan rasa tak tertanding dgn abah mama lg
paham jugak yg buat naza jd keras gini sbb abah mama mase tu first time jd parent
masih dlm proses nak belajar jd ibu bapa
dah tentu ade trial and error
naza tgk bile makin ke adik2, abah mama dah semakin lama semakin lembut
makin boleh memahami cara nak handle anak2 yg tak boleh blah perangai ni masa waktu mmbesar
naza nampak jugak perubahan mama abah
abah mama yg dulunye garang, skarang makin lama makin lupus asapnye
plg ketara pada abah
asik jd pak lawak je skarang
kalo dulu jgn harap nk dpt abah melawak camtu
tah mane dtg skill melawak die tah, ttb je dapat
skarang bile kadang2 nak marah izz, asik pk balik je betul ke aku buat ni
tp kadang2 terlepas gak
camtula agaknye mama abah dulu besarkn kitorg 4 org
ni naza baru satu

dalam usia skarang ni, naza dah mule terpk2
sampai bile agaknye masa kitorg dgn abah mama
dulu kecik2, asik dengar atuk2 nenek2 org lain pegi mengadap Tuhan
skarang dah besar camni, asik dengar ayah2 mak2 org lain plak camtu
rasa sayu..tak berani nak pk jauh2
rase berat bahu ni bile pk jauh2
larat ke naza nak jaga adik2, mcm mama abah jaga?

tiramisu

i'm in my Giada de Laurentiis mode today
tempted to try an italian dish very well loved by..err..everybody?

so..back to basic

i love coffee
i love cheese
i love whipped cream

what more could i asked except for a plate of tiramisu then!!

scrumptiously divine


chomp chomp chomp
here's my 1st attemp on homemade tiramisu
and sooo easy it was
cant believe i never learned it earlier
thanks Sarah Hussain for inspiring, hehe
(though i know you disapprove my cheat..hohoho)

want to know how?

1. buat air nescafe (have it strong and sweet)
2.whip some whip cream + sugar (i whipped it until quite stiff)
3. whip some mascarpone cheese + vanilla essence. fold it in the whipped cream
4. dip some ladyfingers in the nescafe (ladyfingers ni biskut omputeh la, bentuk dia panjang2..ni yg saya tipu, psl saya guna biskut lutut..kuang kuang..malas la nak cari ladyfingers [sorry sarah]..nak tukar ngan plain butter cake pon boleh)
5. layer the ladyfingers into a serving dish, top with the cream mix, repeat the processes again
5. top with cocoa powder (nak best lg, use some shaved chocolate..yummy)
6. simpan dlm fridge kasi sejuk..pastu boleh makan tak hengat XD

tadaaa..easy eh? takyah masak2, takyah api2..
actually the whipped cream was also a cheat as the classic recipe calls for some beaten egg whites, but i was so horrified by the idea of eating raw eggs, i ditched it altogether

i know it looked messy..tp kalo en badang makan sampai speechless, siap bile dah habis tanye ade lg tak,then i'm more than satisfied XD


back to Giada, she's kind of someone i admire
a celebrity chef, a wifey, a mommy, a beauty
baru je kenal die ni semenjak dah ade channel Asian Food Network #706 kat astro [Giada at Home, Everyday Italian]
she's an italian-american, sbb tu lawa die bukan muke typical omputeh
passionate about food and cooking, siap dah beranak sorg,but manage to keep fit
nak jd camtu boleh??
tanak la contradict to my previous post kan..kate nak slim down..he
i'm still serious about it, and at the same time i cant restrain my love being with the pots and pans..and of coz my love of eating..haihhh.. :)

so for now, i have Giada as my inspiration hokeh..haha..for now

love you giada! (though many ppl dont for her sexy over the stove image..he)

Naza T?

Lg 2 more weeks is SDE (last) Annual Dinner
The theme is retro mengimbau kenangan 1983-2011 SDE started at 1983 btw
Apekah jadahnye aku nak pakai neh..83 tu pakai pampers kottt

Me and noni and sarah and farah pakat2
bincang punye bincang punye bincang gile serius bincang nak pakai ape je
we came out with an idea
Let's Hana Tajima!
oh..she is sooo IN right now..
what with her hijab, her outfits..her style is spreading now

Lately i've been playing around with shawls quite a bit tapi gi keja tak buat..not yet..malas kot..haha
my first source for inspiration was actually Maria Elena, the one who got me started fooling around making a cool mess on my head
Oh..if you dont know Maria..she's this famous blogger, very hillarious and outgoing
Only after her did I get to know Hana Tajima..a Japanesse+English mix, a rising British fashion designer, converted to Muslim at 17, sucessful businesswoman, a model as well..she's really something
And there are many others too..there's this club called scarflets for them (nak join boleh??)
I felt quite drawn to their freestyle yet sophisticated ways in 'wrapping' heads haha
Lagipun shawl sgt murah banding tudung2 awning bagai nih..so lagi la poket saya suke
There are no specific rules..you just need a lot of confidence (bcoz people will be staring, definitely)
So..kite tgk jela dinner nnti cemane
Dapat tak saye menjadi Naza T? (konon2 Naza Tajima..bweeekkk)


iklan:

Ummi: (Dukung Izz masuk bilik air..nak mandikan dia)
Izz:      "Tuu..tuu..tuuu" (sambil tunjuk kat plastic mug kat dapur..die mmg suke nak mandi guna mug tu)
Ummi: "Jap2..Ummi ambik" (Pegi amik)
Ummi: "Nah" (Bagi kat Izz)
Izz:     "Andaiiiiiiiii!"

Ummi pulak yg pandai..sape yg mak ni?

camno nak buek

12.07pm Sunday
Izz: (dah mandi dn bergelimpangan kat lantai tengok tv)
Abg: (tak mandi lagi dn sedang melipat kain..THANK GOD..saya paling TAK SUKA lipat kain)
Saya: (sama tak mandi lagi dn main intenet..oh bagusnye akhlak)

feeling like cracking something in the pot..

p/s: bos baru called last friday..asking me to start work a month earlier..meaning from 3 month notice to 2..camano nak cite kat ODK (org dalam kaca aka Mr K my current boss)..hmmm..camno nak buek

Rumah kuning rumah biru

surprise surprise surprise
just last 2 days i put down my resignation letter and now this??
SDE signed an MOU with Petronas for them to buy our Telok Ramunia yard
and another MOU with MMHE for them them to buy our Pasir Gudang yard..where I am right now
in one way..i felt somehow relief
but again..i'm feeling the sad vibes from around me
everybody's feeling down..after the official announcement from Sime Darby president..everybody was in no mood to do anymore work

so..if it really is going to be true
SDE PG will become MMHE
yellow will become blue
orange will become white
jeans will become slack

hopefully everything will turn out right and better for everybody

Hakikat Bahagia

This is Izz's song
It's the song i sang to him almost everyday
Singing while rubbing my tummy as if i was rubbing him
Bcos he was still inside then

As if i was talking to him..
As if i was giving advice to him..

It was my way to communicate with him..
It was my prayer for him..
It was my way to show the love i felt strongly for him..
Even then..


Bcos i knew he could feel them :))

Bila susah tiada gelisah
Bila miskin syukur pada Tuhan
Bila sakit tiada resah di jiwa
Bukankah Tuhan telah berfirman
Ketahuilah dengan mengingati Allah
Jiwa kan menjadi tenang

Kebahagiaan itu suatu kesyukuran
Bila kaya jadi insan pemurah
Bila berkuasa amanah
Bila berjaya tidak alpa
Bila sihat tidak lupakan Tuhan

Hakikatnya bahagia itu
Adalah ketenangan
Bila hati mengingati Tuhan

Earth Mama Angel Baby

Bcos i missed him...

 Among of all izz's things
i have one particularly as a favourite
and i love it so much i though i'd share it with you
:)

taraa


it's a baby bottom balm haha
it's from Earth Mama Angle Baby sorry ye, gamba itu menggiurkn, wahaha

Izz has been using this since..since he got to say " Hellooo world" dont take that literally ya :)
basically, it's for those bumpy mumpy yumpy bumps of izz hahaha
but this product is so good, i use it all over his body wherever it is needed
here, i paste the product info taken from the website

Your new angel's skin – is anything softer? Is anything sweeter? Hey! What's that crud, and that rash, and those scrapes? Being a baby is a hard business, from diaper rash to tiny fingernail scratches, and then bangs and scrapes galore as they begin to explore. Clinically tested Angel Baby® Bottom Balm has got her back, his bottom, mama's dry skin, papa's razor burn and gazillions of other owies that come your family's way.

Our #1 best selling salve is clinically tested, safe for cloth diapers, and safely battles existing diaper rash and protects against flare ups. The only balm made with organic olive oil infused with a proprietary blend of naturally antibacterial and antifungal organic herbs, shea butter and pure essential oils, soothes itchy bug bites, scrapes, chicken pox, minor rashes, and burns.

Allergy tested, non-irritating Angel Baby® Bottom Balm is vegan (no beeswax!) and works great for all your diapering needs, and especially well with all kinds of cloth diapers.

A Natural Solutions’ Editor’s Pick for diaper cream in the 2009 Beauty With a Conscience Awards!

While any cream, balm or lotion can stain if you slather too much on, the optimal amount of Angel Baby Bottom Balm is a light coating – just enough to deliver all the herbal goodness to your baby’s skin, but not too much to leave a residue. You shouldn’t be able to write your name in the balm on your baby’s bum!

Enough said heh :P
It comes in 30ml (RM29.90) and 60 ml (RM49.90)
Yerp, you might think it's a bit costly..but one jar can last forever! okay, dont take that literally again :P
unlike those usual nappy rash cream that is white and looking so full of chemicals, this balm is honey colour, translucent and fragrant, it smells like mild soothing herbs
izz used to have lots of scrapes on his face, sbb asik cakar muka sndiri la, jatuh la, tersembam la, tersadungla
i just used this balm and presto, all trace's gone XD tp tadekla sekelip mata, ish takkanlaa
and as it is 100% organic, rasa selamat nak sapu2 kat tpt2 yg izz sndiri boleh sentuh balik,
contohnye kalo sapu kat tangan die and then die isap jari ke, i wont be worried

just a lil' catch
saya tak penah jumpe kat kedai2 biase
i have to shop online everytime
but this product is so common that most of baby online shop have it on their list of items
i usually buy via littlewhiz.com

so parents, i recommend this jar of wonders for your little one's boo-hoos :)

BMI

Seeing my new ticker, just felt needed to say something about BMI
BMI = body mass index (or British Malaysia Institute kan Aja kan..hehe)
It kind of gives you a guideline, to see whether you are in a healthy range considering your weight and height, or not

Calculation is simple
 BMI = weight (kg) / [height (m) x height (m)]

Approximately,
Below 20 = Slender-Lean
20-25 = Ideal weight range
25-30 = Overweight (though 25-27 could mean healthy if you're large-boned and heavily muscle)
30and above = very overweight / high risk
40 and above = extremely overweight / high risk for health complications

so guys, the conclusion..
my 25 BMI is on the verge of unhealthiness and overweightness!!!! ade ke word ni?
dang!!!!
hate it hate it!

LilySlim nyeee

i'm getting fat!!
and hate it so
so, letak ticker dn rasa padan muka dah rasa terdesak
ceissss

50 kg..i'm coming!

Massage, anyone?

Naza..you've got mail!
pasal ape?pasal ape? [terover sket]
nih dia






you see,
i had attended this workshop before, mase pregnant dulu
i registered, pay rm 20, and got johnson's stuff worth of rm40 on the bengkel day
dpt pulak belajar teknik2 massage baby yg betul, mandikan baby dn breastfeed (with the help of a doll tau:P)
lepas dah tau byknye benefit massage baby ni, mmg berazam nak buat
Alhamdulillah, i do it till today though the challenges to have izz lie still for me to massage increases with each passing month haha

but actually, after a while, i forgot so many details about the benefits
i just continue doing it as it has become a routine for me, lepas izz mandi kena massage dia
now that i'm reading it again in the above ad, trus mcm enlightened~
"ooo..patutla bam bam dak ni~" hahaha mungkin laa..

from all the benefits stated, my favourite is the BONDING
see, i capitalized it..i'm stressing this out
BONDING between the baby and the parents (or whoever the guardian is)
skin-to-skin touch is the best and basic method to get bonding
it's one of the baby's fundamental needs
as a touch by someone familiar makes them feel safe, secure, and confident to face the new world believe it or not

but there's one other benefit that i have always remember and not mentioned in the ad
that a routine body massage can improve the baby's resistance to disease
bagus kan..perkara mudah tp faedahnya besar
sape tanak anak sihat oooii~~ :)
and alhamdulillah, izz had his 1st fever at the age of 8 months
and never had  fever after injection or when his teeth came out ish, ni bukan nak riak tau..ish, mntak dijauhkan
i dont know the real reason
sbb massage kah..or sbb breastfeed kah..
apepun, rase syukur dgn ketegaran budak ni,he

lgpun, massaging izz is my personal excuse to touch him
asik babysitter je pegang all day long, ummi pun nak pegang2 sayang2 gak :P

so moms and dads
do give this workshop a try ya
get BONDING!!
gi workshop gih..hehe

oh, see the link in the email?
i put the link here for you -->registration
the linked page ade link for registration, and also a link to download the tips and techniques (kalo takmo jugak pegi ke workshop la)..
but to go is better, as you can meet all the trained and qualified ppl who can answer your questions (mcm brape kali nak buat sehari, when is the right time, how to include this routine in your already hectic schedule, etc)
and it is a good investment, sekali belajar, brape kali beranak pun boleh buat haha
so guys, just try it k :)

this is my massage message with love :P

Baby Swimming Survival Video

Watch this, you'll be amazed!


The first time i watched this video, when izz was still in my tummy
and i was immediately eager to know as always, sebok aje nk tau all about baby and swimming
turns out, and this is a fact, that babies do swim!
believe it, it is one of the natural gifts they have as a newborn
cuma bukan la swim kepak2 gitu, they just know how to float
well, technically they have been in the water for 9 months pun kn :P
however, if this floating talent is not used and trained into proper swimming, and sustained, eventually they'll forget about it and start being afraid of the water (normally after 6 months)
i was so excited and eager to have izz swimming right after birth!
well, that was the initial plan..
almalangnya..it didnt happen
Malaysia's still not used to this kind of extreme buat masa ni, untuk org2 kebanyakan kita, swimming babies do seem extreme kan
Thus i couldnt find any swimming class for babies, the earliest class age i found is for 3 y.o kid
At the States, babies swimming is a common thing, so they have the lessons there..haiiihhh, jeless~
kalaulah saya ade private pool, kan best...teringiiinnnn.. ;P
tp mcm nak kena ade coach bertauliah juge rasenye eventhough books on this can be easily found

izz pun dah 1.5 y.o
he has forgotten all about the swimming stuff already i'm sure
last 2 weeks when we had a vacation at Desaru, and while spending time at the apartment's pool,
it was obvious, he prefered the shallow pool where he could stand on the floor,
rather than sitting in his float in a deep pool where his feet touches nothing but water
haiihh anakku..

so izz, siap la ko
ko ngan adik2 ko get ready je la eh, adik2? :P
as early as i could find a class for you,
i'll be putting your name in
hahaha (nada evil dan secara paksa)

smart reader kid ke piano lesson ke art ke
i'd rather have you learn the basic skills first okeh syg
in this case,kite swim2 yg lain juge mcm solat, ngaji, baca, kira, adab sopan, budi bahasa, akhlak mulia, etc etc etc oh byknye keja ayah ummi!! XD he
lgpun, this is a life-saving skill, so i want you to have it
you must be better than ayah ummi :)

lagipon, ummi boleh tumpang swim nnti~~ ngeheheehe ni mcm umminye yg lebey




p/s: tp seriously, rasa sayu sgt bile dengar baby dlm video tu nangis lama2 camtu..tak sampai ati rasa nak dengar..

Wishes came true

I'll be going back to Shah Alam this evening
yay..nak ambik izz yg ummi rindu2 muah2
i dont know why, but everytime i think of izz, i picturize his cheek yg mcm pau tu, siap gambarkan angle muka die sideways, bukan dr depan, sbb pipi die lg menonjol dr arah tepi, camtu lak


pipi menjejeh yg kurindu

But still, i managed to do almost all the things i listed for this week
though without izz, this week is kind of a special week la, sbb jarang2 dpt buat anything yg not so izz-friendly..haaa, lain mcm jek bunyinye~


1. Izz's scraptbook, bought on Sunday - Have been wanting to do this lama dah, mcm omputeh tu..I think it would have been nice for izz to go through his own baby memories when he grows up..so, dah alang2 izz tadek ni, we went to look for a baby scraptbook, at Harris bookstore at Jusco..found a very nice one, Baby's First Year by Annabel Karmel (it was the only one pun, tadek pilihan lain)..but as i went thru the details that i need to fill in when i first flipped thru the pages, it actually made me very sad..how detail the scraptbook was! eg: when was izz's first smile, izz's first waving byebye, izz's first flip, his first word, his first tooth, etc etc etc..and i couldnt remember all!! not to mention we lost a lot of izz's photos sbb harddisk rosak that could actually provide some ideas..sedih sedih sedih..tapi nak buat camne, so i just put myself together and tried to complete it as best as we could..until today, there are still a lot of blanks to be filled..but somehow i believe we'll figure something out..haihh


Parents: you've got to have this book EARLY! earlier than your baby's arrival pon takpe :)

2. Tgk wayang, Monday - We went to watched Merong Mahawangsa.actually it didnt matter what the movie was, it was just that i wanted to watch it at a cinema..many parents i know have already brought their babies masuk wayang, some as early as 4 months..but i'm still feeling nervous just to think of bringing izz inside a panggung..i still dont have the courage to face the challenge.. :) neves neves

3. Minum air kelapa bakar, Tuesday - kalo lalu highway pasir gudang, there's a small stall kat tepi jalan..gerai die buruk je..die jual air kelapa bakar..cant believe after 3 yrs i stayed here, i've never stopped by..boleh tahan gak rasa air kelapa bakar ni..org kedai tu bakar kelapa tu sampai hitam2, pastu buang kulit luar sket (sbb kalo tak, buruk la hidang kat org dgn hitam2 berjelaga tu), takuk bukak mcm biase org minum air kelapa tu, and serve (ewah)..warna air die a bit darker than air kelapa biasa, and rasa die mcm santan sket..and it's believed for having many health benefits

this is how it'd look like masa bakar

4. Makan kacang pool, Wednesday - oh, this is a specialty..it's a singaporean dish actually, which also can be found at JB..but there are not so many places having it..yg betul2 sedap cuma 2 tempat je (from what i know)..Kacang Pool Haji, both at Larkin..and marrying to Bad yg tak brape suke jalan jauh semata nak cari makan, even a foodie like me pun jd tak sampai tpt2 ni eventhough setakat Larkin je (it's about 40 min drive from Pasir Gudang, kalo tak jam)..but the reputation of kacang pool ni mmg well known la..so dapat gak gi rasa mlm tu..my comment? thumbs up!! jari kaki sume..rasenye die inspired from Arabic dish la, sbb masa kat Egypt dulu ade gak makan a dish called phool, which made from fava bean, just like kacang pool..makan pun sama dgn roti..aaa, fava beans is another reason why we can only eat this masa izz tak ada..izz got G6PD deficiencies, which causes him to be allergic to fava beans..kesian pulak kalo nak makan depan die..for now at least.. nnti dah besar sket, dah pandai eat his own food only and does not bother the food in my plate, takpela :) skarang ni, ape yg dlm pinggan ummi, itu yg die nak eventhough he had the same thing on his own plate

Kacang Pool Haji yg terbaekk

5. To cook chili crabs and eat puas2 - well, this is the only plan yg tak jadi2, psl en badang yg kaki bola gi main bola dn bile balik dah tak sempat nak gi beli psl dah lewat..when i said nak beli on my own, die nak ikut and suh tunggu die balik..aiiii..last2 jd jalan2 di Kip Mart yg baru pindah tempat baru je mlm td (sambil pandang ketam2 yg dijual sambil menjeling2 kat en badang yg gelak2)..bukan ape, bile ade izz, mcm rasa nak makan ketam yg hussling tu belum sesuai lg..tggu die besar sket la nak meratah ketam sepuas ati lg..actually boleh je gi makan ketam kat Tg Langsat (banyak dan murah..hmm..lame tak makan)..but sebenar benarnye kan malu nak bgtau ni saye tak penah siang ketam..dlm byk2 bende boleh buat kat dapur, itu je yg saye tak menuntut lg dr mak saya..haha..walaupun tgk kat tv cam senang je, tp nerves lak rasa nak buat sndiri..tu yg excited nak test cooking it on my own..ahaa, apekah


Kalo org lain baca list ni, mesti kate biase jek bende2 nih..hehe..but for me, bende2 ni dah jd special treats that can only be done once in a while..tambahan lak, dpt spend some time with Bad, dating2, maka masa2 sebegini jd precious..:)

but i still missed my baby pau..and i cant wait to see him again tonight..somehow i can smell him, just by thinking about him..pelik betul :)

Separa didih

at last!
my mengarut mood came today

what to say what to say
just having a weird discovery lately
i really missed mengaroting in this space
i guess somehow this mengarot2 became one of my ways to think and express
like working my brains on something of my own
about the feeling of belonging duhh, mmg kuat mengarot ko naza

enough of that (i typed 'enuff', then i felt 'that was so not me' naza ko skema)

these days were hectic
got meetings, almost everyday of the week
come to think of it, i have just 1 day off without meeting in a week
even saturday yg half day pun meeting
apekah
meeting lak sometimes stretched to half a day
camne nak cepat siap keja oiii, asik suh engineering gi meeting
tau la service dept, abs sume dept kena bagi service kat derang
and every dept wanted to have separate meetings
maka bile jd begitu, we need to OT
oh no..not OT tp berbakti sbb tadek gaji untuk OT for permanent exec level and above
everytime doing a new project, there were occasions when ade je yg keja sampai tgh mlm, even weekends
sape bayar? tadek sape
berbakti kn kata, yg penting deliver, providing service to everybody
and if the basic pay is as standard as other similar companies for the same job grade takpe jugak
for sure it will compensate for that whatever OT berbakti
tp kalo berbakti byk2 tp tak dihargai, rasa2 camne?
when dealing with technical, at some point you would want to enhance further
and to enhance further, means to venture further
venture further can bring a lot of meaning
tambah2 lak bile ade emotional and personal factors involved, and of cos, financial factor
yg mana berbalik kpd td
bile byk2 berbakti tp tak dihargai, rasa2 camne?
ahh..talking about dihargai..it'll be veeeeeery long if i want to elaborate
making it worse, my company seems not to care about human capital
they rather recruit new people so they can pay cheaper
not to take care of the ones with experience and technicality and can provide better performance
especially if you are in for the 'service' commitment
haha..apekah pemikiran
well..i am staying..for now..
but insyaAllah, one day i'd like to venture out too
berhijrah :)

Assalaaaaaaamualaikum

Kite Festival at my place

At Pasir Gudang poyonye ayat mula, we have a very large padang..nama die Padang Layang Layang
and every year, we have International Kite Festival at the place
This year around, it was held last week from Wednesday until Sunday, morning till night as usual
Everyday there were kite competitions and exhibitions from local and international participants
There were stalls selling food and stuff all day long, 
concerts with celebs at night, uh, serius nada poyo nih..haha
ala, riuh2 standard kat keramaian + pro and amateurs playing kites..and of cos, kites penuh di udara
ala2 riuh2 di tanah + riuh2 di langit..ho

My family came last weekend for this festival..saje sbb tak penah tgk
Abah, mama, syazwan & ainaa, iqa ade exam or work camtu so she couldnt joined us
Bagus gak my family dtg nak tgk the festival
Even me myself had never really experienced the whole thing for real even after 3 years staying here

So off we went last saturday

Pagi2 tu layang2 baru start nak naik la..sket2..lama2 jd banyak camni haa. the crowd also was getting bigger..and the sun hotter..tp ni pagi..that afternoon would be the opening ceremony by DYMM..so petang tu lagi penuh la tanah dn udara.he

warga shah alam jakun tgk layang2 (mcm la saya tak..oho)..yg izz tu dah kenape??

Amidst the chaos, ade lak mcm2 tayangan..layankan aje

 capoera..cool gak..tarian yg macho

sebelum sampai PG, syazwan duk peleceh kate watpe nak gi tgk layang2, die nak duk umah..dah sampai padang, die yg plg sebok nak beli layang2..haa, rasakan aura pasir gudang..ngehngeh..so kitorg pon sebokla berangan nak terbangkan layang2 



 org nak main layang2, depa pun nak main layang2..panas tau tak panas? (as if i wasnt the one holding the string just minutes before)..
