Another one...


My 3rd medal thus far... achievement at the age of 39. Life begins at 40??? Naahhh… I think mine started early… LOL!


I was in the Adidas Run – King of the Road last Sunday and I managed to improve my 10km record by a few minutes. Considering that I have not been running since Ramadhan, I was really surprised when I crossed the finishing line and saw the clock ticked 1hr 34 mins 44 secs. Well, to serious runners, that may not be the best time but as for me, I’m ok with the time recorded. 2 more runs this year and I’m done for 2011 events.

Waiting as early as 5am in the morning 

Yes, he waited too... by the road sign 


 As the starting line... 7.10am


 600m to go and I was running thin on my energy supply

 Pheww.... finally... almost at the finishing line....

 Nik in his first 16.8km this year

And it was my 2nd 10km

AM so busy at work and have started traveling from one state to another, rolling out whatever plans that I need to roll out and I can’t wait for this week and next week to be over. Then, I will ‘rest and relax’ for approx. 2 weeks…. the break that I have been waiting for since early this year…

Then we are gonna have the Penang Bridge Run & Desa park City Run in Nov plus another one, Malakoff Run in Dec… then I’m done for this year.

It’s gonna be a busy weeks ahead y’all!

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). ...
