After My Long Silence....

Year 2007 will be a VERY busy year for me. 3 months into 2007 and I have only 4 entries in my blog. If these entries were to be graded, I’m pretty sure I’ll get an F on Blogging Course.

A lot (I really mean A LOT!) of activities have been lined up to be implemented plus the fact that I was forced to take up a-free-no-obligation-MBA-offer by my company. I wonder if my brain cells still work …. perhaps they are now clogged with fat! I left school years and years ago and to be exact, it was almost 12 years ago. Of course along the way, I did attend other classes but all I learned was how to make your cakes look good…… and nothing to do with Accounting, Business, Management, bla, bla, bla….. Well, they told me my class will start in March 07 (not a good month!) and the first 2 courses will be on Finance and Accounting. Yes, what a way to break the ice around my brain ….. I need my Caramel Macchiato now to warm me up! And oh…. Plus the fact that I’ll be missing my first few classes as I’m going on a long leave next week……. Oh this is not good…. Really not good!

Anyway, putting work aside, let me tell you that Naqeeb is now in Year 1. I’ll post his photos at school in my next entry. This means, not just my responsibility at work is getting heavier, my job as a Home-Headmistress is also expanding. I have 2 students to monitor at home and it’s not an easy task. The price that I’m paying is sacrificing my hobby and minute-business – my Bake n’ More. I’ve stopped attending cake classes and I only take orders during weekend. But it’s okay….. I’ll pursue my dream when things have cooled down.

Till then, have a good day & enjoy the coming weekend!

Zura,
MBA will be a breeze.
Believe me.

The fact that you've worked for more than 10 years, that'll give you a head start.

You'll pass with flying colours.

All the best and good luck, dear.

P/S:
Opportunities knock once....
Free MBA all expenses paid for.
wow!

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 ...

A Walk to Remember!?

Finally, I’m writing…. The trip to Singapore was fun…. And also, full of crazy moments.. heheh… Clockwise : The Q @ immigration, street performers @ Orchard, moi infront of Far East Plaza, Nik chilling out @ Starbucks Suntec CT & my precious new sandal... I like!! We left KL after Subuh & managed to reach Johor around 10am. The trip was a short one so we decided to leave the kids behind. It was a smooth ride on a cool & very breezy morning with just enough sun all the way (yes, made me sleepy also!). I took some cool pictures along the way and later discovered that I accidently deleted all of the scenery pics from my camera.... *sigh* Sometimes I can be more than the word 'clumsy' could describe... Anyway, we wanted to enter Singapore via TUAS, then I remembered that we didn’t even have a single cent of S$, so we drove down to JB town and looked for money changer. Then I thought…. no harm of taking the Causeway since it was a Sunday and I was so damn sure that traf...

Angels - Mission Possible...!?

Last week was a week full of excitement for me. One, because I was busy with my work, so the week went by faster than usual…. (meaning: less time spent on ‘termenung’ & missing my husband); Two, my hubby dearest was scheduled to arrive on Friday night (3rd March 2006), the more reason for me be thrilled and eager counting the days; Three, me and the rest of March Angels ( Leilanie & T. Ina ) planned to meet up on Friday (3rd March 2006, also) to celebrate our birthdays and Leilanie had this fantastic idea of challenging ourselves to find gifts for the birthday mommies (and the gifts must cost less than 10 bucks each!) – and Leilanie, I must tell you that this challenge really made me sweat all afternoon on Thursday….. hehehe …and Four, me & my husband (and also the children) planned for a weekend getaway to Cyberview Lodge Resort & Spa on 4th & 5th March 2006. There I said it…..nothing much to say about point One & Two…. but point Three and Four…..definitely!!!...
