Bye Bye Hair

11th July 206 ..... this date marked the history of Nasreen changing her hair style from this…














To this….




















Blame it all on her momma!

She’s been donning her long hair ever since she was small, a baby in fact…. The shortest it gets is only up to her collar, and I would normally let her hair grow long. Only a bit of trimming once in a while…

Every morning, I would juggle my time to tie her hair nice nice, or sometimes ‘tocang’ her hair so that it looked neater, sometimes she demanded to ‘ikat dua’ and put some clips here and there, or sometimes ‘ikat setengah sikit sikit’ – whatever that means. You know lah children nowadays, very demanding. Lucky that my son is stuck with his ‘recruit-style’ hair since baby… like askar hair lah, they style where you have to use the machine to cut… Heheh…

Anyway, one day I woke up and felt that I would not subject myself to such torture every morning, ever again…. Mana nak iron my scarf (this one must be fresh from the oven, cannot pre-iron, else the ‘awning’ will not give the right shape – and yes, this rule applies all around the world tau!), mana nak hair-dry my hair, mana nak make up, mana nak pakai baju plus Nasreen’s demand for the right hair style every day…..

Geeez, I tell you, my blood always runs upstairs every morning. Not to mention my husband utilizing the only mirror in our room to himself… (tak nak share tu!) peehhh, I finally reached my limit. So off we went to the hairstylist in Plaza Sect 9 and told the friendly hairdresser that I wanted something ‘stylo’ but short….

And short hair was what we got. Both of us, me and my husband, were impressed. I think she looks neater and ‘comel’er…. No more that ‘serabai’ fashion as Nik always put it… hehehhe

And looks like this short hair style is here to stay for another few years until she knows how to ‘cantikkan’ diri…. Hehehhe

One responsibility is off the hook…. Yippee….

To Be or Not To Be

Deadlines were over…. Yesterday was my last day here…. And today marks a whole new beginning of my career life here….. I could be wrong or I could be right for making this decision… but I’ve made up my mind to take up the challenges, nonetheless. I know I’m subjecting myself to a lot of hardwork as well as criticism, scrutiny and observation from the rest……. and time definitely has to be compromised. But being a risk taker…. I am, I know I just have to pull myself together and face the obstacles - one at a time. It’s too late to undo things anyway and the best thing to do is to be positive. Both legs are in and it’s time to march towards the horizon with pride and dignity. Only time can answer the doubts that I have in me now… meanwhile, I need all the luck that I can have.

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).

Antara Anyir & Jakarta

I’ve been making regular monthly trips to KLIA since my husband was posted to Jakarta last year. And yesterday….. again, I made my ‘latest trip’ there to send him off (after the recent trip that I had on 3/3/06 when I picked him up from KLIA to spend his 10 solid-days holiday with me and the kids here in KL). Time sure flew fast when you wished for the earth to stop and let you enjoy your 10 days just a little bit longer. Nevertheless, the ‘most awaited 10-days’ was over…..Nik is now back in Jakarta and I’m now back in my office, sitting in my chair, swiveling around every 10 minutes, gazing lazily at the workload dumped on my desk and trying very hard to find every energy stored in my body just to touch those piles of paper…. argh! But the 10-days period was spent joyfully. We took the weekend off last week for a quickie getaway at Cyberview Lodge Resort & Spa…. and oh boy! the resort is spectacular and the view is breathtakingly-beautiful. Of course, the children were the happies
