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….

Nasreen's dying to have long hair (sampai pinggang katanya...) tapi the mommy tak larat nak maintain. Mommy's hair to jaga, daughter's hair to jaga.... wah, boleh quit day job cam ni

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). ...
