Happy New Year!

Phew….. it’s the fourth day of the year already!!! I hope it’s not too late to wish everyone ‘Happy New Year’!!!!!!!

Actually, I was away in Bandung & Jakarta last week…. celebrating my belated anniversary with Nik and also new year. Oh! Yes, I went mad again in Bandung and spent hundreds and thousands of Rupiah (don’t panic…..it’s only a few hundreds if you convert them to RM lah) on clothes and begs. Haaa…. That’s what I call a good trip! We went back to Jakarta with a van full of shopping bags and of course, I was smiling all the way…..hehehe

Anyway, now I’m back in KL. This week is rather hectic. Naqeeb started his first day of pre-school in CEC yesterday and Nasreen is now in Year 3 (she’s no longer a baby anymore!).

So there I was, alone, running around in between schools… queuing to pay for their registration fees…. buying their books…. and did some last minute ‘back-to-school’ shopping….. (plus Naqeeb demanded an ice cream treat for being a good boy in school, hmmmmm……..kids can be very demanding sometimes!). Therefore, by 3pm, I was already drained and exhausted and I couldn’t walk anymore. I went back and hopped on the sofa and fell asleep…..zzzzzzz.

Enough said.... I’m back in the office this afternoon and have tons of assignments waiting for me (plus I need to update my other blog, Life is Beautiful, which was set up together with Leilanie – the sifu – and Ina. I’m beyond my deadline now and I hope that the chief editor will not punish me for my late submission….. heheheh. Anyway, the blog is still ‘under construction’ but you can always drop by to check the status.. I’m sure you’ll find some interesting stuff there once it’s completed).

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!

I am busy, I'm confused!

I have been very quiet this week.. no updates, no hopping around leaving any trail of my existence, probably due to the following reasons: 1. Nasreen will be having her exam next week, so I’m busy reviewing her syllabus (and also nagging to make sure she prepares herself). Yes, instead of her reviewing her books, the responsibility – by default – is shifted to me…. Hmm, mothers nowadays. We feel the pressure more than our kids (and we panic even more while waiting for the results to come out). Hehehe. I can’t remember my mother even touched my textbooks when I was in Primary 3. No wonder we grow old faster these days…. 2. I’m having mood swings this week. One day, I feel elated, then mellow on the next day, moody on the following day. Work is adding on my desk, scope is being expanded, news is floating around and remarks are beings smacked everywhere (manage to steer clear of some and the rest sometimes just landed right on my very lap). Don’t you hate it when you are so positive that ...
Yes, I’ve been blessed with a lot of wonderful people around me….. yes friends, you! Read on…. Yesterday, around 6.15pm, I was in the middle of reviewing something when I was called for a meeting with one of big bosses here…. And I was thinking in anger, ‘Great! It’s 6.30pm and they want to have a meeting. Don’t they have families to run back home to????” So I got up from my chair and ran down to one of the meeting rooms in Level 5. I peeped through the small glass and the room was dark and empty. They were not even they yet! Heck! But when I pushed open the door, suddenly I heard people screaming and laughing and shouting, “Happy Birthday To You!!!!” and everyone was holding a candle in their hand. Gosh! My colleagues planned a Birthday Party for me. No wonder the department was empty when I left and I didn’t even notice. I was speechless! I was asked to blow the candles that they were holding and those on the cake (oh! The cake was so yummylicious!) I was so touched. Everybody was th...

It was Nik's Birthday

It was my husband’s birthday yesterday and we took the day off to ‘merewang’ while feeling young, kononnya. The theme of the celebration? Reminiscing the days when we were courting back in 1993 minus the snow.... ancient sungguh rasanya! We had our breakfast at O’Brien’s early in the morning and took a slow stroll along the shops in OU and enjoyed every minute of it (at 10am in the morning, mind you, and the shops were barely opened). Later we watched ‘Lake House’ and we were charged RM12 only for 2 tickets (the early bird tickets were so damn cheap, I almost fainted!). There were only a few couples inside and we took the opportunity to sit right at the middle (ikut suka hati), since the theater was quite empty. How was the movie? Hmm… ok la, I would say it was the right movie for the occasion… hehe. A bit slow though, biasa la, romantic piece. The ending part was quite ‘touchy’ and yes, Mr Reeves was so stunningly handsome (oh yes, nampak tua sikit la and still got the looks). ...
