19th Aug 2009 - the best birthday present ever!

I turned 35 years old on 10th Aug 2009... yep... not old, just a nice number to grow mature with experience... heh heh...

So I was doing my ISO audit when a call came and said, you are required at the reception counter now... and this was sent "technically" from Kuwait with love... Thks my hubby for the wonderful surprise... 24 red roses!!

And if u noticed the small box wrapped together with the ribbon... err what's inside was this:

Wow, so far so good.... and then on 19th Aug 2009 - the most awaited day for me, after 2 years of hardwork... it's graduation time!! Alhamdulilah, my masters is now officially over...

I have dedicated my special thanks to everyone... please read in my facebook, for those who's connected to me... but for the record... I would like to thank Hubby & my kids for their unconditional love and support, family and friends for their understanding + love + support. And errr if I were to do my PhD, will you all stay with me??

Cuti-cuti Malaysia... err KL actually..

It's school holiday time again... 1st week - I can't take leave. 2nd week, oh yes, me on leave definitely. So this posting is definitely about the cuti-cuti activities with my power puff girls

1. Hubby's cousin got married on 6th Jun, congratulations Erwan & welcome to the family Khaty!

2. The new look at our Nilai Spring Club... a new splashy Water Park

with the newly completed Resort Hotel (of course offering special discounts for the club members)

And the swimming done by my cute-fussy-bossy-always nak jalan2 girls...

3. The trip to Muzium Negara @ National Museum... the last time I went there was in my teens age... it has really really changed, and I am proud to be Malaysian! And I am glad that Adilah picked this place, out of her curiosity about history... she is growing up alright!

There are more pictures, but too slow to load up here... so if you are my FB friends, do check my FB later, for more updates (that is when I am done with all my activities and THEN only I shall post my holiday album there.... i.e making an excuse if I update very-very much LATER hehehehe...)

And of course, during every moment I spent together with my girls...... we kept on saying... "Nanti Ayah balik kita ajak Ayah datang sini/ buat ni/ makan ni/ etc"... we miss you Ayah!!

Little Bunny had Dengue!!

This is a very very outdated news... but to keep those who "miss the boat", here is the short story of my little bunny, Adriana and her dengue...5th-9th May 2009.... Hospital Serdang, Selangor...



Drip was off on the last day, 9th May 2009. She was sooooo happy to be able to walk... WHY? Look at her photos below:



Both hands wrapped in that needles n wyres... of course Mickey will always be on her side!

Some of the gifts from caring family who paid her a visit... Thanks Pak Ngah for the Pooh & chocolates & biscuits..

her fever on 5th & 6th May was between 40-45 celcius... how laaa not to panic? Ibu also cried and not sleeping for 48 hours.... and thank Allah for the pink towel + warm water, it works!

This is on 5th May in the ER of Hospital Serdang.... she is such an expert when it comes to needle n wyres... what was I thinking at that point of time??? .... "how am I going to survive like this?".....

Anyway, thanks to all who came to visit us, prayed for us, and to Ayah.... thanks for coming back, even though we did not get the chance to really spend quality family time, but your presence makes a BIG BIG different... we LOVE you...

My 3D/2N Vacation at An-Nur Specialist...

Adriana was still vomitting, even after her drip on 10th Apr 2009. So I guess, the right thing for her now is (as what most other parents will do also)..... to be enjoying a short vacation at a hospital!!

This is my Little Bunny, after the registration... straight to Lily 5 room and the 1st drip started... she looks so tired n expressionless!


The 2nd drip.... she was too tired after vomitting so much that morning of 11th Apr 2009. How I wish I could replace her... but I know I can't and hence I have to let my Little Bunny manage this experience herself.

At her 3rd drip.... my happy & more energetic Little Bunny with her sister Adlina and beloved cousins (a.k.a love birds) Irfan & Amirah. I am so glad when we finally arrived home today... thank you Allah for taking care of her...

ps: the diagnose is AGE & Dehydration...

The drip session... a quick solution to dehydration

This was how I spent my long day today...

As Adriana continued to vomit and throw out whatever she took since she woke up at 7 am, so I've decided to "make" myself brave, and drive her to An-Nur...

My oh my, the hospital was so packed, even the ER has a queue! So cut story short, after all the waiting and talking and explaining, the doctor decided to put her on drip...

Now since the ER was also packed, the best option that I have is to hold her, for the nurse to start the drip.......dripping dripping dripping.... and 20 minutes later, a bed was made vacant for her....... fuhh... what a blessing... as I am not feeling my two arms already! Yet Adriana is only 11 kg... imagine if it we to be "bubbly" Adlina??

This photo was taken, when she dozed off on bed in ER. Once the drip was done, we headed home... as she said.... " I want to rest at home... I don't like to see too many people"... hmmm my poor little bunny!

Please be safe my little one... you are a brave "HEATBLAST".... Ben 10 must be very proud of you!

ps: she dis not cry when the doctor was poking her hand to insert the needle... I was the one restraining myself from crying... and wishing in my heart that I wish I could replace her... she looks so fragile at that moment and yet when I asked her "Adik ni Four Arms ke Heatblast?" she replied "mestilah Heatblast"....... hehehe kids..

Sleepless in BSP Kajang

Sleepless in Kajang is not able to sleep tonite....

Of course every nite is a long nite, as Sleepless in Kajang is thinking of dear hubby in the land far far away...

But tonite, Sleepless in Kajang is worried that if she sleeps, her Little Bunny may choke/throw up and she is not there to help...... Wouldn't it be good, if her favourite Ben-10 is here to the rescue?? My Little Bunny, please be safe!

What do you think Sleepless in Kajang should do?

(ps: this picture was taken in May 2008, at Che Jie's place)

The story of Pak Teh

Pak Teh was borned 5 years later than me, and he's the only son my mom ever had...

I used to feed him when he was small, give him a bath when he was smelly, pick up his laundry, clean his room, bring him to clinic, send him to grandpa's house etc etc..

When he was studying, I help to support him, out of my responsibility as a big sister... and when started work, I still help him, as he is starting his life.

And yet....now, I don't really know him anymore... he is so so so far away, eventhough he is just around the corner.... we talk and yet we don't really talk, we meet but we don't really meet...

I guess what I'm trying to say is, I think I have lost that connection I once have with Pak Teh. So Pak Teh, if you happens to read this, all I want to say is......

We all still love you the way you are... and please "come" back to reality...

The story of flower girls

I was attending a luncheon at Putrajaya last month and was enjoying the food... Everyone was talking and..... bla bla bla.... and bla bla bla... "so the parents will sponsor the flower girls dresses..." WARNING !!! This sentence kind of "got my attention"...

My first question, "What's up??"

My second question, " What??"

Cut the story short, my three cuddly always-have-difficulties-because-not-in-the-right-size barbie girls are now doing "flower girl" role.... for a wedding in PICC...!! Oh boy... oh boy... oh boy...

Searching for the dresses was such a drama... but finally, the results are:


Ibu with "marsyal's kebaya" as Ibu will have to ensure the flower girls aged 10 years and below to KEEP TO THEIR LINES...

Adilah in her "FABULOUS" dress...... with some touch up courtesy of Tok Che Nor & SD Image


Adlina in her "innocent gown" yet with her "funny face"... cuddly as ever!

The sulking "head" of the flower girl... this young lady is supposed to walk at the very front line alone... when this picture was taken, she was seated on the 'buffet line", sulking and crying, and she refused to join the final rehearsal... Aiseh....



and finally..... a Happy family.... Congratulations to Arian Shah & Zahirah... 14Mar2009!

Jan 2009 wedding

Two of my cousins decided to tie the knots with their beloved ones. May Allah blessed you guys great ladies... Congratulations to:

Farah & Fakhri (23rd Jan 2009)

Sufya & Aimran (17th Jan 2009)

Hope to see my little new nieces/nephews in the near future.... so, get busy guys! Hehehe...

Love me, love me not?

Have you ever feel like you have been loved, but when it is convenient NOT to do so, you are not loved?

Have you ever feel like you are required, but when it is convenient NOT to do so, you are no longer required?

Have you ever feel like you belongs somewhere, but when it is convenient NOT to do so, you don't belongs there?

Life is all about a cycle... it keeps on rotating and the ending is when you leave this world in peace, to see Allah s.w.t.

The birthday boy who paid for his own birthday celebration

Hubby decided to make a surprise visit on 26th Dec 2008 to everyone in KL just after his parents came back from Haj ...... (of course I got the info way in advance then others, but still it was a surprise to me as well, when he text me and said, "I got myself a ticket back home to KL")

To remember the occasion, he apparently has planned for a family get together (thanks to Pak Ndak who became his unofficial party planner).... and guess what? Azhan's birthday is just around the corner, so does his sister Asni, and of course my bubbly Adlina as well... And so here's the story of our dinner:

The happy Adriana who finally managed to eat her "most awaited for" Ben 10 cake.... it's just the box....huh, good marketing strategy this restaurant has!

The overly excited Adilah, who cannot get the smile off her face, too excited with the fact that her father is home now.... something she never dream about to end the year 2008...... as she has just said farewell to him about 3 weeks ago!!

The overjoy Adlina - speechless with the cake, and of course the present she got... her new Barbie-learn-n-play computer.... what a nice picture of daddy n daughter!

Me (no word to describe myself, as I am busy stuffing cake into his mouth)... who was accused of keeping the secret away! Well I guess to really end the day, we brought them to the Secret Recipe anyway!

Be safe wherever you are, and thanks for the "lovely" surprise!
