My twin princess are turning 1 tomorrow
Big day for them :)
Time flies so fast, I can still remember vividly the moment we were told that we are going to have twin by our gynae.

2009-02-06T14:03:00.002+08:00

It is time to change my virtual home.
Hopefully will update regularly :)

Wishlist Came True

2009-01-23T12:43:00.003+08:00

It's good to be able to finally have what you *dream* to have it.
No matter how long it took for you to contemplate should you buy it or not ?
For us it took quite few months, maybe nearly a year.
No, I am not talking about designer handbags, new gadgets for myself. We dont lead a lavish lifestyle. I seriously do not want to inculcate this habit in my kids too. I want them to be happy not because of branded staff but because they are grateful they have a good life, a loving family, unconditional love/support from parents, and learn to be patient to get whatever they want .
I am a very low maintenance and my happiness is usually something that I can contribute to the family especially for the kids.

The feeling of having your wishlist came true is indescribable. I guess when you have to work reallllly hard for it, it worth even more to you. Unlike those lucky people who can easily get whatever they want, whenever they want it. After all each of us has our own rezeki. And Allah gave my rezeki in different way but I am always grateful for whatever things I have, alhamdullilah.

Yay, finally can strike off 2 things from my wishlist(s).
Moving on to work even harder to achieve others.

:)

Twin and Little Heroes

2009-01-07T16:41:00.004+08:00

Happy New Year. I think I want to close down my blog. Hmm sebabnya jarang sangat update blog ni. Twin is already 9 months old. The above picture is my Sofea. Ada 2 gigi kat bawah coming up 2 kat atas. very agresif, suara serak-serak and daddy's girl.

Oops, actually nak cerita pasal danial. My son is already in standard 1. rasa tua sikit :)

anyways it went well, he was quite nervous tangan sejuk kejung betul. so we read doa together at home and in the car. the headmaster cakap "parents yg datang lagi ramai compare to the kids " haahahaah lawak, lawak. i guess sume parents anxious to see their kids. sapa tidak kan ?

thank god danial goes to same school with his cousin. classmates lagi tu !!! best friends betul diaorang ni, 24 jam asyik cakap pasal games from spiderman, transformers, spiderman lagi, ben10 la naik pening dibuatnya. pegi kantin holding hands, balik sekola holding hands hee hee so in a way both of us (the parents) tak la risau sangat sebab ada kawan kan. the good thing even going to school is so much fun these days danial bangun sendiri je pagi tadi. motivation betul pegi sekola since same school with cousin ni.

i am planning to make a special keepsake for danial's first experience to school. i have just started my favor business. it is still slow so if you guys want personalised favors do contact me. for danial's first experience i will do a personalised newspaper called "little ones tribune". if you want to order one please email me at order@sweetxpression.com hee hee *sempat promote jap ni*

My resolution for this year 2009 is to be ORGANISE. PLAN, PLAN PLAN, AND ORGANISE LAGI. last year is my adjusting period with the twin. By now we pretty much dah ok so i seriously want to plan our life, activities, budget, everything. so many things to plan out banyak ni sume nye nak kena ikut SMART..hee hee i seriously hope it is achievable insyaAllah:)

This month my target is to organise the walk in wardrobe. The thing is i can easily plan ni sume but "to do it' is another thing. yela apa susah buat plan kan but to implement tu big issue because my twin ni 24 jam memerap la pening betul. pantang nampak mommy musti nak suruh dukung. ayah dia panggil the clingers. hahahaah :P

Sofea and Syafiqa during hari raya. Some facts on them :-

They very envy towards each other especially when mommy dukung sorang lagi sorang pun nangis :). Fight over the same toys. Tak senang duduk when everybody else is getting ready to go out and they are still at home. Have 2 teeth so far. Knows how to dance/wiggle. Love baby einstein series. Adores danial/adam. Love to eat adult's food. Addicted to playhouse disney. Learning to sit down. is very mobile these days. dah penah jatuh tangga. crawl pretty fast. and can meniti from one place to another. Going to be 10 months old this 19 jan :)

S-I-B-U-K Couple

2008-11-24T11:50:00.002+08:00

I am back to working mom.
I have lots of stories to share but must record this one hence the reason i am updating my blog today :)
Will try to keep it simple and short to save my time.

here it goes, recently during my hubby's visit to a nearby dentist while waiting for him i read this interesting article by ust@zah siti norb@yah. it is about busy couple coping with crazy schedule and at the same time still keep up the romance/relationship. the formula is :-

S - SENTUHAN
I - *forgot this one, i think it is for INTIM
B - BELAIAN
U - UNGKAPAN
K - KEJUTAN MANIS

and so i told hubby we should do this.. we hardly have time for each other.
the last time we went out for dating was few months ago.
our life for the time being evolved around the kids, either danial, adam or the twin.
we rather concentrate on how the best way to cut down our expenses, maximise our savings/investment, preparation for danial's school, adam/twin development, working life, and other boring stuff.

After weeks of bugging my hubby finally we went out dating yesterday.
Wehooo, it was only for 3 hours but i really enjoyed it very much.
not to mention the unexpected comments from SA.

we went to this fragrance counter, as my hubby would like to buy a new perfume.
The SA asked us " Are you guys looking for perfume for hantaran ?"
I was like " Hantaran ? "
My hubby saje get along, cakap yes. "

The SA gave us a lot of ideas on how to decor the hantaran not to mention samples, and the perfume decorated nicely with ribbons, and they even ask us, when is your majlis ?

When i went to b0dy sh0p, the SA asked me again for hantaran ke ? and she wrap the yummy sr@wberry toiletries with ribbons and nice box. she even said kalau weekdays we have special box for you. hee hee :)

lawak.
so after months of not dating and we still eligible for not-married-couple-lookalike.

and i wonder what would they say when they see us outing with two strollers, two diaper bags, screaming at the kids, rushing to get our errands done.

it is good to know we are still ahem *young couple* :P

Looking from the positive side :)

2008-10-17T10:25:00.005+08:00

The twin sisters are going to be 7 months old come this 19 oct.
sekejap je kan, we have survived the first 6 months, so i guess for the next few months it is workable, well i hope by next year when they reach 1 yr old, they are more independent so less hectic for us sikit. i have plan how to make it work :P

adam is 2 years old and danial going to be standard one next year.
apart from adam mischievous to test his sisters capabilities either strong or not by pijak his adik every now and then, suap his adik his lunch/breakfast when his adik approached him or play with them as if they are big enough/strong enough to play with him when they are just crawling and starting to communicate with each other.

recently during our annually neighbours get-together cum raya open house my neighbours told me that she is planning to go to HUKM to meet up this famous prof who can help her to conceive twin. She told me the fees is around 1.5k to 12k. "Cheap kan, "she said. i think it is using IVF treatment and banyak orang dah buat and it is guarantee you can get a twin, triplets or quadruplets..lagi banyak bayar lagi banyak la dapatnya :P

why am i sharing this ? well i told my mom and she said you should bersyukur banyak banyak you got it naturally or more likely by *accident* hahahhhahah because the third pregnancy is unplanned.

well i am bersyukur and i should bersyukur banyak-bannyak rather than whine eh,
a) my kids are healthy and they are our rezeki
b) that Allah makbul my doa for me to have a baby girl and He gave me two :)
c) i have a supportive hubby who try to help me as much as he can without complaining
d) my maid is helpful too although sometimes ada benda yg i kena pejam mata sebelah jela
e) my parents try to help us every now and then. they always say "kesian on us"
f) my inlaws do help us also when we our backup plans didnt work out as planned but since they live up north susah sikit la nak tolong tu
g) although i am working full time, my boss is very, very understanding. THANK GOD. i have fully utilized my annual leave, every now and then ada je benda "family matters" nasib baik la dia OK, as long as all the tasks/assignment pending is completed :) if i were to work in the old company jangan harap la, mesti dah lama kena brainwash dengan lady boss tu.

when people sees our family they always say "seronoknye" tapi my dad kata seronok tengok bukan seronok jaga :P

but you know it is definitely seronok to shop for the little girls. and i am not the only one yg have fun dressing them up. last raya the twin mak ngah bought this super cute custom made dresses just for the twin, terharu mummy :) yg sakit nya because everything is double expenses. but mommy always ended up shopping for 4...hee hee sebab rasa unfair pulak kalau asyik shopping for twin je.

so i am thankful and grateful for what i have now.
alhamdullilah :)

Finally an update

2008-10-15T23:16:00.003+08:00

Okay, so this time i do not know what excuse for the long silence.
i have new ideas on how to cut short my entry on each posting. instead of typing i am going to just post pictures. heee hee save time

sorry TIME is very luxury for me now.
if you read my FB status you might now that i am currently a temporary SAHM.
but do you think i can eat with peace, have long bath, stroll along the shopping malls with twin, oh how i wish that when i can barely eat in peace, sampai nak tercekik most of the time, usually i will eat while holding either sofea/syafiqa, cook while the other hand holding baby again, barely can sleep throughout the night what more nap time, and even to do what i wish to do when i become SAHM (although for temporary)...

sometimes i wonder am i the only mommy who is struggling juggling my twin and other kids, while other mom are doing well ? teruk sangat ke ni ? because someone i know who has twin boys seem not to have big deal with all those sleep-deprived issues, tiredness, and etc..hish i seriously hope i am not the only one who is struggling;

well the other reason why i do not want to write a long entry is because it will ended up as a LONG WHINING ENTRY, and i am sure *my readers, if i have any* would be bored to hear my WHINING story.

for now if i could see a genie i would ask her to grant my three wishes

a) fast forward the time so that twin and my other kids become 2/3 years old and hopefully things a lot easier for me..oh gosh it is so tough sometimes *rasa nak breakdown pun ada sometimes*, although i know i have to go through this i just hope well it will get easier and not so challenging for me *long sigh*

b) let me win the pr0t0n mpv naming contest. and we dont have to worry how to fit in all the four kids comfortably.

c) let me work from home, without having to worry how to pay my bills.

anybody kind enough to grant my 3 wishes ?
b whats happening during puasa and raya time
oh btw selamat hari raya, maaf zahir batin from me and my family :)

Ada idea macam mana nak ambik gambar budak 4 orang ni in their happy mood everytime take picture ada je orang cranky hee hee saba je tak sporting model saya ni

Going to Wedding Reception with the Twin

2008-09-05T09:26:00.003+08:00

About 2/3 months back I had a wedding invitation that I could not say NO too. Well The bride is my exschool-mate and we have known each other for about 17 years or, so no matter what I must attend this wedding. Although it means dragging along my four boisterious kids.

The other reason why I could not miss this reception is because I have missed the nikah reception. I was in my confinement period with twin. And so I told hubby no matter what, we have to attend this one by hook or by crook and it is seriously one hell of an experience.

Hubby asked me so how are we going to sort out the kids during the reception ?
The plan was mommy with twin and baba with the boys. Adam must wear his safety harness and if my school mate is around they can be our temporary babysitters so that we can eat if they are not around then errmmm no lunch for us then :)

We arrived pretty early, and to cut the story short my heels decided to "buat perangai" on that exact moment. Grrrrrrr so we have no choice but to make tour to the nearby shophouses to look for my "replacement heels". Saba jela aku, tension aku. And by that time the kids are crying, quarreling and started showing tantrums because they are hungry for LUNCH.

About 1 hour later we arrived at T@bung H@ji dewan again for the reception. The moment we arrived my friends went ooohhh and aaaa over the twin sisters and voluntarily to take care of them. How sweet !!!! We fed the boys and soon after that mommy and baba had lunch.

Come to think of it, it wasnt so bad our first experince going to kenduri with 4 kids. Although I foresee we will only go to kenduri when we know there are potentially temporary babysitters available. *haaahahahah*

Cepat la besar budak budak ni*

Quickie Update

2008-08-12T11:40:00.002+08:00

Aduhai sibuknya. MasyaAllah. konon konon nak update blog seminggu sekali i ended up blogging in my head. ok a quick one update on the kids first.

danial

he has started going back to school since last week. dah cuti lama sangat tu so bile nak suruh pegi sekola balik he will come out with excuses, and i tell you my eldest ini cukup terer bagi excuses. lucky mummy and baba know danial trick very well so it didnt quite work with us but he can easily get away with his atuk/nenek.
he still has his chicken pox scars on his neck and body. nasib baik kat muka takde. for now i will sapu the vitamin e oil hopefully eventually it will goes off
danial loves his younger bro and sisters. whenever i buy things for him, he say he wants to buy one for adam too, he loves to tickle his twin sisters although he still hasn't recognise until today which one is sofea or syafiqa. usually he will adress them as "mummy the one wearing blue shirt is crying" heheh.. i have told him millions time already which one is sofea/syafiqa and how to differentiate his twin sisters cause syafiqa has birth mark but well i guess he just couldnt be bothered as long as he know, he has two babies and love to play with them both. sometimes danial would ask me"does syafiqa has lots of hair?" which i replied "no" and then when look at them he get confused again.

adam

adam is the only one who is chicken-pox free
he is still learning how to talk, quite slow for his age but i guess ok la kut, boys mmg slow sikit. the other day his ayah taught him, "mee" and point to "mummy" as in to pronounce "m-u-m-m-y". after few tries adam got it. hee he yay so now he say "mummy" albeit in is his own style which pronounce "mee-mee" Hee, hee takpe la
adam janji ada bunyi sikit sikit tu ok la, mummy happy enough :)
adam ni la yg paling lasak, hyperactive and kuat nangis too. he has 2/3 times purposely pijak his adik(s). kesian baby. twin pun satu mcm takut dengan adam ni sebab abg dia yg sorang ni ganas sangat :P

twin sisters

they are 4.5 months now. have recovered from chicken pox. Alhamdullilah.
so finally they are sleeping at night now. i have been sleep deprived for 4 months. every night for the past 4 month i sleep at 2/3 am (earliest) and if they decided to meragam i can only sleep at 5/6 am. In the morning I have to go to work. MasyaAllah, penat tu Allah jela yg tau. I have never experience this kind of severe sleep deprivation, it was soooo tiring i seek advice from my office mate who also has twin boys. but she is sooo lucky her boys sleep throughout the night even from confinement dayss !!! haii saba je aku. Anyways, I can start to sleep at night again now... hehe :)
they have started to recognise, mummy, baba, the big bros. tapi yg tak percaya tu dah pandai JEALOUS. hee hee tak sangka eh baby pandai jealous. usually their jelaousy is towards mummy eg: once i came back from work, if i dukung syafiqa, sofea tengooookk jee and they later she will cry. same goes if i breastfeed the sofea, nanti syafiqa pun nangis nak breastfeed jugak.
the most stressful time for me is at night. when both of them want to go to sleep lying down with mommy while breatfeeding. haiiyaa, it is even worse because the ayah is sleeeppyyy-head all the time, stress betul.

The good thing, mummy is back to slim melim mode. hee hee in fact i need to wear belts for my pre-pregnancy jeans. ada hikmah jugak la tak tido malam 4 bulan tu heheh :)
ok will update later byee. will upload latest picture of my kids in my FB :)

Happy 6th Birthday Danial

2008-07-18T21:45:00.001+08:00

Today is my son's birthday. Danial is my firstborn son. I still remembered the day I gave birth to him, 6 years ago. I thought I was ready physically and mentally. Boy, I was wrong as I seriously do not know what to expect being a first timer mother and parent. But having him is the greatest give of all. I am still learning the parenting skills.

Three days ago, danial complaint his chest hurt. I took him to see a doctor and the doctor told me there is nothing wrong. The next day after I came back from work I noticed measles coming out from his body, later when we took him to the clinic doctor confirmed that he has chicken pox. Poor him.

Hes been very good despite being sick. He is a very good boy. He doesn't complaint at all. He only cries every now and then, telling me that it is hurt having the chicken pox and also when his temperature is too hot making him difficult to breath. He asked me why did he get the chicken pox and how did he get it ?

It is really sad to see your son sick and knowing the fact you can't do much about it. It breaks my heart to see him cries ( which I ended up crying with him as well) I pray that Allah will answer my prayer so that danial will get well soon.

Happy Birthday Danial. Please get well soon. We will go somewhere special once you are healthy again kay sayang. Mommy love you very much danial.

Dressing Up The Twin Sisters

2008-06-09T14:34:00.003+08:00

I think I should open a new blog and write about twin there. Or perhaps I can use my blogspot to write about the twin sisters. Anyway I came across this website from my neighbour's link. I absolutely love the embroidery and super-cool-custom-made tops/dress. [I]hee hee biasa la kan baru dapat girls so super excited la bab dressing up ni. [/I] And so I ordered two tops for my little twin. Much to my surprised the tops are ready. Wehooo :) Would you like to have a peek at the twin tops :)

Cute tak ?

Told my hubby and he said, "Mummy over-excited" hahahah can't help it actually.

My Little Princess are Two Months Old

2008-05-30T15:33:00.005+08:00

It has been ages since I last updated this blog. My new mission, is to update this blog regularly. I plan to share mostly about my kids. Two months ago, I safely delivered a twin girl.
Sometimes when I held them in my arms, I still couldn't believe it that I have twin girl and mommy to 4 lovely kids now. Well Allah gives rezeki in his own special way and I am truly blessed and grateful for what we have now :) Want to see their picture ?

On the left is Sofea and on the right is Syafiqa. Maybe they look identical to you, but in real they are non-indentical.

Close up of my Twin1 : Sofea

Close up of my Twin2 : Syafiqa

What I have learnt for the past two months :-

a) More organised, and a better MULTITASKER - (read) handling the twin when they decide to cry at the same time, breastfeeding football style. I learnt to eat in a very quick way (usually 5-10 minutes I have finish my meal), having dinner while breastfeeding the babies, teach danial homework/art while breastfeed, putting adam to sleep while breastfeed baby and the list goes on.

b) CONCEALER is my "new best friend" these days. It is miracle if I could sleep 8 hours straight, which I never had to since 2 months ago. These days I sleep around 4/5 hours max.

c) Ever since become mommy of 4 - I try to give my one-to-one attention to all my kids as best as I could. But it is tough, considering my second hero is still small and I guess he is/was having a tough time to accept the fact that he has two lil sisters. hee hee :) So what I do is, whenever the babies sleep, I maximise spend time with the lil bros and vice versa. Although at this point of time I think the time spend with babies are quite alot compared to spend time with the lil bros. Breastfeeding is time consuming especially when you have two babies !

d) Nowadays I dont really have ME time. I long to read a book or having a quiet ME time. For now our house is like a nursery and the only time it is quiet is when all 4 of them are asleep.

e) I never care the existence of MPV until now. In fact I've been reading motor trader forum about MPVs, and one of our favourite topic these days is MPV. Hahahahah

The thing is Spacious car + Happy kids = Happy parents.

Unlike now

Cramped car + Kids arguing all the time = Mommy ends up having migraine.

f) It is not a good idea to have lunch/dinner with 4 kids at the restaurant. Well you never know until you try it don't you. It wasnt so bad, despite the fact that Sofea decided to vomit on the floor after i Burped her, Adam quarrel with Danial over the free balloon from MacD, Adam purposely make music with the utensils to get attention when Daddy is occupied with food, Adam scream out loud since Danial do not want to share his balloon, and the babies decided to cry at the same time too. But we survived and I laughed at my husband since he looked so stress up after our lunch. I told him, hey it wasnt that bad, at least we still can finish our meal isn't it ?

Will share more of my experience in my next entry. Take care. :)

I am Back

2007-09-21T11:28:00.000+08:00

In case if you miss me, or wondering about me (if there is any) hee hee I am doing great Alhamdullilah.
I have great news to share with all of you but am not "brave enough" to say it out loud. But good news to my shelfari's friends you can look for clues.

The clue is check on my "Wish List Books" and you'll get what I mean..

I will try update more and share more stories to come..
There is a lot of "events" that I missed blogging it about like our 7th anniversarry, ramadhan, the kids and my new job.

For the time being I will be bloghopping around the blogspot and wordpress if I found you. I miss efx2 especially all the alerts function :(

Ramadhan Mubarak to all muslims bloggers.

Bye for now

Where was I ?

2006-02-10T11:57:00.000+08:00

It has been ages since I last update my blog. I guess you must be wondering why I have been
very quiet ? The reason is I was having some personal-problem-which-I-could not share with you guys bloggers. Anyway the good news is, I am back on my feet now and praying hard I will have an easy pregnancy and delivery so that my normal-hectic-life wouldnt be affected so much with this pregnancy.

I like to share the ups and down of my life for the past few months.

We have decided to enrol Danial for Tumble Tots weekly classes. Dah dekat 3 months Danial pegi playgroup ni and so far he really enjoys it. Mummy is happy for him too, as he is showing
positive improvements, more independent, build up confidence and getting new friends. The only thing he said to me he wants to go to different school where he can do art & craft activity.

Teringat dekat Lorna Wishton . At the moment Mummy try to make it a point to do art & craft activity every Sunday cause Sunday is our relax-quality time with family and cleaning
up weekly mess day. hee hee A few weeks back Danial requested to bake Choc Chip Cookies
Cookies. It was fun experience for him indeed although Mummy die pening betul cleaning up the aftermath mess. Danial tlg bancuh tepung, and masa nak bakar tu die yg bentukkan cookies dalam tray, I have to be very patient and creative in terms of tolerating just whatever shapes turned out to be hee hee.

I am 14 weeks and 6 days pregnant now. My pregnancy experience is totally different compared to the previous one. Masa mula-mula dulu rasa penat giler-giler betul. During that time I really dont know how am I to going through this pregnancy and to squeeze in my daily-hectic schedules. I was so stressed out, emotionally unstable and short tempered. I was having a tough time to be my usual self as wife and mummy to Danial. Alhamdullilah so far things are getting better.

Anyways, the plus point of this pregnancy is so far I dont really have bad nausea. Sebab tak
mabuk sangat kan, I eat like crazy. I think about food day and night, and every now and then
ada je cravings for this for that. Hee hee last 2 weeks my parents, sisters and I went for
lunch at Stadium Merdeka. Makan nasi kandar kari kepala ikan. Simply yummylicious hee hee :) I ingat one of these days nak ajak my hubby pegi high tea la hee hee ? Perhaps can hint for upcoming Valentines eh hee hee :)

I will write more soon. Have a good weekends everybody and to those working in Selangor enjoy your long weekends. Unfortunately I have to work today, *sob sob* KL tak cuti laa :(

Holiday Mood

I am on leave starting from Tuesday to Friday.
Destination -> well local but most importantly just want to have some quality time with am and danial together. Most probably we will be heading for Melaka-JB-Singapore-back to kl before heading next to -Undecided-Couple-Getaway then moving up north to Penang to visit Am's parent.

I am so looking forward for our holiday :) I badly need a break from work.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year.

Money and Danial's Special Request

2005-11-25T12:24:00.000+08:00

I have finally get over my "Mellow" Period. It took me a few days to get rid of this feeling,
not that I am totally over with, well at least for the time being "I can live with it, and I
just want to go with the flow". Come on, lets look at the bright side ? There are people who
are less fortunate than me, It is not the end of the world.

Maybe,
Maybe Not.

If only I dont have to pay for Waja Insurance + Road Tax this month. I have allocated money for it with assumption that &%^%^^&*&*. It just that this month is very, very tight. Sesak perut ni, bukan takat ikat perut je *long sigh*

After all kalau ada rezeki, insyaAllah ada (kena la extra doa ni) and based on my discussion
with boss no1 everything will be smooth flow again. Biasa la hiccups tu here and there kan,
kalau anak menteri ke or bapak aku punye company ke lain la kan, so I'm moving on now :)

Last night out of the blue while we were watching tv, danial request something from me :

Danial : Mummy, I want baby girl
Me : Errr, what ? (just to make sure I heard it correctly)
Danial : I want baby girl
Me : Uhhh *smiling* go ask your Baba

Well I am not going to elaborate on "The making of Baby Girl" hee hee but I like to share
something that I have notice lately. My motherly instinct tells me Danial wants a friend to
play with.

Based on my observation :

Danial is having more fun when play his thomas train set with his cousin (Dini), and lately

He just found out he has a friend (who is my mother's neighbour daughter) named Farzana. This little girl is so cute, with her big eyes, natural wavey hair and fair skin. For the past fewdays Danial play with Farzana on daily basis. In fact sometimes when they were both too exhausted they ended up having their afternoon sleep together. *Aduii parah betul le*

I decided to enrol him for Tumble Tots Programme. I have book an appointment for a free trial
session this Saturday afternoon. DH was 80% ok with the idea until the money part came out. I
told him the monthly charges is rm80++ for 4 classes. Each class last for 45 minutes. He commented rm20 for 45 minutes, mahalnye !!! Itu I belum bagitau die lagi yg rm80++ is actually around rm400 upon registration hee hee :P

Haiii saba jele, for the time being we just gonna let danial enjoy his free trial session. If
everything turn out ok, and Baba die cair most probably bule la enrol danial kut. After all he
is going to pay for it :)

The political environment at my workplace is driving me crazy. It demotivated me big time.
Sometimes I want to contribute my level best, but when this type of problem kan it makes u feel alaa buat apa la nak kerje rajin-rajin bukannya management nak recognised ke apa ke. Yela keje macam org giler, stayback sume apa salahnya appreciate la staff, jangan la buruk siku... isk sakit hati betul :(

I feel guilty.
I AM A BAD, BAD PERSON.
Maybe I deserved this.

Huh !!!
*Sigh*
It is hard to make everybody around you happy especially when you dont have the power to take control over the situation. Your heart/instinct desperately want to make them happy but the truth is you failed and hurt them unnecessarily. Well maybe i deserve this, or tell me Guest? how do you overcome this situation if you were in my shoes.

The ironic part every weekend is either fully-booked attending hari raya open house or hosting one. Mind you, IT IS SCHOOL HOLIDAY WHICH MEANS WEDDING CEREMONIES SEASON. My god, and at this age (26) is the peak time when everybody decided to get married. It's like a circle and one by one of your friends tied the knot and start the wonderful marriage life.

Let me brief you my situation.
Last saturday I had 2 wedding invitations and 2 open house invitations. All the invitations start from noon until 4/5 pm.

One of the wedding is from my ex-skool mate Ms Azna. She is getting married to her boyfriend whom she has known for the past 7/8 years. Me and Ms Azna grew up in the same neighbourhood, we went to the same school and share the circle-friends. We keep in touch on and off but we still do see each other once in a while despite my err family schedules. Her wedding reception is at Dewan Guthrie, Bukit Jelutong.

The other wedding invitation is from my friend Ms Khadijah whom I known back in Loughborough, UK. Ms Khadijah is my senior and she graduated in 2001. She went back for good to Malaysia and I havent met her ever since. The only way we keep in touch via MSN Messenger and now we sms or call occasionally. She told me several times, and insist that I come to her reception. I told her I will come InsyaAllah. Her wedding reception is at UIA, Gombak.

When I received the third invitation for last saturday I told her I barely can make it for this one. She insist I still come and out of politeness I told her "I will talk to my husband and see if we can squeeze yours late evening". This lady is my office mate, I chat with her via (YM) almost everyday and we seem to get along very well. She desperately want a female friend (being the only programmer in her dept), me on the other hand, want a friend whom I can share my cyber-interest and mundane life. She lives in Klang.

Saturday came. And errrr it didnt turned out as I have expected. In fact I am feeling guilty until now and dont know what should I do to make it up.

We arrived at Dewan Guthrie, Bukit Jelutong around 2pm. I was surprised and excited to meet my old skoolmates again. We update on our life, gossips, take loads of picture and before I realised it is nearly 4pm. Uhhhh I panicked, I told my hubby and he told me we cant make it to the other kenduri/open house. I have to go see a doctor and she is only available from 3-5pm. In the end I attended only ONE kenduri kahwin and NONE open house invitation :(

I am a bad friend. *sigh*
I missed the opportunity to see Ms Khadijah in her wedding dress. I feel bad if she really has been waiting/expecting me. I still have her wedding present in my house untouched, and nicely wrap with a small congratulations card on it.

My office mate doesnt want to chat with me today.
I sms-ed her last weekend and she didn't reply. I know she really hope I could make it to her raya open house.

The problem is, I do want to go but DH is the one who make the decision. After all he is the one who is driving, he controls the journey as well as our plan for the day.
DH told me it is impossible for me to attend all the kenduri/open house.
Perhaps, I will make it if I dont have to go see the doctor ? Or perhaps it is better to come, although when the ceremony finished rather than didnt come at all. Like the saying "Better late than never" :(

Disheartened with Modblog

2005-11-17T16:58:00.000+08:00

I was very surprised yesterday when modblog features returned back to normal after months I tolerate the orangy layout.
I have upload all the raya pictures celebrated in KL as well as in Penang and save it in my computer with hope to upload it for my next entry today.

Unfortunately each time when I try to open my modblog I got this

20 years ago - 1985 (i was 6)
Uhh I cant really remember this. I lived in Salak South, my mom worked for a Bank and my father just started his business. We lead a very small life, me and my younger brother. I was an active and tomboyish little girl. I droved my mom up to the wall occasionally. I still remember one incident where we went for my father's relatives wedding reception. It was held somewhere in Kajang. I had an urgency to wee so my mom accompany me to the toilet. Being an independent little girl I rushed first and enjoyed the excitement when my mom had to run after me. Upon seeing the toilet bowl i jumped onto it, and to my surprised the toilet bowl swayed and broke into pieces. When my mom arrived she was horrified to see me, the next thing all that I can remember I had stiches in my neck which left scar until now :( I couldnt really remember the surgery experience at the clinic but my mom told me, I cried non-stop for hours hee hee

10 years ago - 1995 (i was 16)
sweet 16. Hee hee During my teenager life I was very timid, shy and quiet. We live in Subang Jaya. I went to SMSU in Subang Jaya. I had lost my younger brother in an accident. It was an agonizing experience for the whole family especially my parents. My mother has resigned and helping my dad with his business.

5 years ago - 2000 ( i was 21)
Sweet 21. Hee hee During this year I graduated from UWCN, Wales UK with whole lot other friends. They were around 200 students in my batch. My first diploma year was the happiest moment in my life.

Came back to Malaysia just to deliver Danial while was heavily 8 months pregnant. 3 days before gave birth to Danial my hubby came back. Lucky me :) Danial was born on 18 July on the exact grandpa's birthday. Alhamdullilah :)

Last year - 2004 (i was 25)
Graduated from Loughborough. It was the most stressful year for me, as I have to do my final yr project, manage 2nd yr students, viva, crazy coursework, I spent hours and hours in the VLSI lab, playing around with Matlab, of course apart from my student dateline I have to manage my family and danial. We came back for good on 31st August.

VROOOOOMMMMMM...........

2005-03-21T09:53:00.000+08:00

Last weekends Ive had once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to watch the F1. It was enjoybable and memorable experience indeed courtesy of my BiL who works for Petronas Motosport. We've been given 5 grandstand free tickets which include (me,dh,ad,my sil and her husband). DH was over the moon and very excited about the whole thing. I still remember, back in the UK when the F1 season started sometime in spring we would have to rescheduled our daily weekends rutines so that DH can watch the F1 race in peace. If worse come to worse and he really couldnt watch it live, he would make sure that he recorded it so that he can watched it later when we get home. So you could imagine how enthusiastic he was to see the F1 live. He was hoping to have a visit to pit stop and have a look closely and the teams car, engineers and u-know-to-have-a-feel about the F1 is a lifetime experience.

it was blasting hot that day. ad was very excited he didnt even want to have breakfast that morning. we have to walk around 1.5 km from parking lot to the grand stand area. fuhhhh you could imagine the sweat and exercises weve been through.

time to work. will update more later...nowadays no more time to blog :( workload increasing :P

Fancy a Chocolate Quiz Yum, Yum

2005-03-16T13:28:00.000+08:00

Theres not much work to do today (meaning it is blogging time heee hee), one of my Bloggers friend recommended this quiz. So below is my results hee hee....i have to admit the 'mint cookie' results is not 100% true. Hee hee i wish i have the money to spend on my wardrobe, right now it is just not my priority...perhaps in a few months time...i can be the New Yorker with a twist of Chic-Modern-Islamic-Look :)

You scored 66.7%
Chocolate Chip Cookie
Chocolate Chip lovers are loyal and dependable. You're probably a bit of a traditionalist and, therefore, may find it difficult to try new things. Family and friends are very important to you and you work hard to maintain connections among your loved ones. You have a small group of friends you've known forever and spend time with regularly, and you are the one everyone comes running to for advice. You relish your role as the nurturer and comforter, and your friends repay you by gently reminding you to take care of yourself -- along with everyone else!

You scored 22.2%
Sugar Cookie
If sugar cookies are your passion (the more butter, the better), you are a sensual and fun-loving person. You like to keep your options open and sometimes have trouble making up your mind. But once you make a decision, you stick with it: there's no dithering. You appreciate simple things but you insist on the highest quality always -- the best clothing, top quality sheets and towels, etc. You share your passion for good things with a small circle of close friends and, in fact, can be quite shy around new people. But those who spend the time to get to know you love what they discover -- a passionate, fun woman with a lot to offer.

You scored 11.1%
Mint Cookie
You are cool, sophisticated and full of energy. If you were a magazine, you'd be The New Yorker. Your closet is filled with chic clothes, you enjoy wine with meals, and you like to try interesting new cuisines, go to arty movies and spend time with friends talking about "important" things. You like your life to be exciting; you're anything but boring! Your sharp wit and joie de vivre are the things your friends and loved ones most admire about you.

You scored 0%
Oatmeal Raisin Cookie
You are a natural woman. You enjoy spending time outdoors -- in the garden, hiking or just sitting under a tree with a good book. You crave the simple life. You believe that food is best when it's made from scratch, a philosophy that also carries over into the homemade gifts you like to give. You enjoy spending quiet time with the ones you love and prefer intimate gatherings of close friends to the frenetic party scene. Your friends and family admire your calm self-confidence and natural beauty.

You scored 0%
Ginger Cookie
Ginger cookie lovers are risk takers. You have a keen sense of adventure, whether that manifests as shooting white-water rapids or simply taking a turn in the road to see where it leads. You are curious, intelligent, funny and young at heart. You tend to like being the center of attention, and enjoy being surrounded by an admiring and willing audience. Good thing, too, because your fans are likely to stay by your side for a long time to come! Despite your entourage, you remain very independent minded. You and only you are in charge of your life, and you love it that way.

What Took You So Long

2005-03-16T10:23:00.000+08:00

Alhamdullilah.....Alhamdullilah...I really dont know how to break this news... Hee Hee....I am the happiest woman alive in this world, Over the moon. Finally the news that I've long to hear, my DH has been offered a job in KL.

Yehaaaaaaaaaaaa, Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

I am overjoyed, speechless, blissful and most importantly gratified to Allah. Thank you for making my prayer came true. Ive been praying day and night for 6 months and finally it came true. Only He knows the sacrifices and the sorrow to lead your life without ur beloved DH.....

On the other hand, this situation has given us a new perspective to our relationship. Its true that ppls say, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder". Ive learn to be more understanding, appreciate and patience with DH. My long-term resolution is to be a better wife, InsyaAllah. Ive realised that sometimes when your love ones is around you, you tend to take he/she for granted. Although it is sometimes tiny little things, but it's actually those tiny slip up that counts..

I am more energetic, enthusiastic to move on with my life now. Thank you again to Allah, Alhamdullilah. I am so happy, i just cant help it to smile from ear to ear even in my sleep :)

When You Finally Found Someone

2005-03-14T10:05:00.000+08:00

why would u do crazy things, things that make your whole body aching, super-duper exhausted like you've been running 100km non-stop, u dying to open ur eyes at work and wishing that u are sleeping soundly in ur bed for hours the whole day :) why because i am madly in love with my DH. It is crazy, it is stupid, but the companionship is worth it

The price to pay for travelling 5 hours journey is very, very tiring. For the past 6 months the North-South highway is just like federal, or ldp highway to us. Thanks to us the plus have collected hundreds $$$ just for the sake of our travelling expenses not to mention the fuel expenses, i am actually tired and sick of this situation, i wish that there would be an end to this, i am not getting stronger by day, although i can give 1001 reasons to gain back my energy, the truth is i just cant lie to myself

pls make my prayer come true
ill be the happiest woman alive in this world

Gain Weight

2005-03-10T11:34:00.000+08:00

ive been trying to gain weight for ages, on and off. i dont know why my metabolism is so high and it burn all the fats so damn quickly heee heee i envy those ppl who can wear size 12/14 because ive been wearing the same size all these years. i can still wear those clothes ive been wearing when i was 19/20, how terrible is that, pity me :(

i wake up this morning incredibly early, feeling motivated and inspired. one of the thing that inspired me is to GAIN WEIGHT.

First i have to eat as much as i can. I know this sound stupid but im not the sort of person who eat too much i think. ive been too clingy and needy because DH is not around these days hence affected my appetite. but ive just realised my situation is not that bad compared to single parents out there (especially single mummy), how do they cope with their life right ? so i think i can handle this, it is still beyond my control...i just have to be stronger each day and occupied myself with a lot of crazy stuff like blogging :P and it just kept me haunting

So this morning when i came to work, i brought a lot of food to make sure ill be eating on and off the whole day. I wish i could eat all of that food :P

Maybe from now on i stock up food in my place at office. Will not miss breakfast and lunch. no more branch these days and worry less

will update more.. time to work. seriously work.

love is in the air

2005-03-09T19:42:00.000+08:00

someone from UKs mailing list suggested writting a love letter to your hubby especially for those who live apart.

ive decided to take up that suggestion and wrote him one last night. It was not easy to compromise with AD on whos got the chance to play cbeebies or getting my job done. anyway after few negotiations with the clever-hyperactive 2 yrs old kid ive managed to sent one.

today at the office, been hinting at my hubby if he has checked his email. Unfortunately it is way after office hour now and still havent got any phone call or reply yet. Hmmmm....long sigh..am i feeling sad/disheartened about it. yes and no.

to be honest, i dont blame him, i've known him too well, hes working hard and im sure whenever he get reward it is for our own good too. after all hes working hard for us right ?? hee hee...i dont know, im trying to comfort myself....on the other hand i miss our courting times, those love letters, such a splendid experience...

there is more to life than mushy stuff now. perhaps whats more important is understanding and honesty. maybe the timing is not right. hes on call 24X7 this week. perhaps i should try different approach or try again when hes not very tied up with his work.

missing DH :(
