Remembering 2011 & Welcoming 2012


2011 came and went.... in a split second.  I feel like it was only yesterday that I welcomed 2011 and wished  'Happy New Year'….  and suddenly, it is the time of the year again. 

I don’t normally set any specific goals because I feel that they create unnecessary stress J (at least to me), but 2011 saw me realized my own potential when I started participating in running events.  I never thought that I had that much motivation (and energy) in me but hey… I collected 4 medals in 2011.  Well, I missed 2 events because I was sick in Nov and the doctor refused to let me run… huhuhu. 

Apart from that, the lil’ company that was set up together with my long time friends,  Sha & Ina, Sinfully, kicked off wonderfully with us securing a few seasonal contracts with SOGO and closed a few party plan proposals. 

In July 2011, I changed job after spending soooo many weeks thinking about it.  I was with SC*** for almost 7 years and I thought it was just about time to move on (actually, money talks..... hahahha).  I met a lot of wonderful people and friends in this company and some continue to be part of my life till now..  It was not easy to move on when you literally grew with the Company, so much so, I was crying hysterically (okay…. Makcik selalu ‘over’!) when I sat in front of my CEO on my last day and I kept telling my friends not to say ‘goodbye’ but ‘good luck’.  I joined another organization, S*** (also starts with S… hehehhe) in mid July.  Yes, it takes a little bit of getting used to but so far, I am doing okay.

Hmm.. and some other things that happened along the way, sweet, sad, bitter, fun… but they were all spices of life and I thank God for this wonderful life that He bestowed upon me and I am grateful for all the people around me.

Let’s hope that 2012 will bring us happiness, ‘hidayah’ and good health, Insyaallah.

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!!!...

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). ...

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 ...
