Weekend yang RAJIN :)







Salam semua....
Its been a while since i posted bout cooking. Actually, since the new school session started, my whole life routine have been transformed. From morning session to evening session. So, unlucky for my dearest husband, tak bekesempatan nak prepare dinner, since he insisted that we just dine out everyday. But still, since i got plenty of time in the morning, special breakfast will be served, together will bekal tau.... seronok je rasa when i tengok my husband menjinjit tupperware ke office... :)
Last sunday, i cooked him sumthing special. Actually husband dah lama teringin makan butter prawn, as for me, the dissapointment eating ayam gajus di beberapa restaurant... i decided, to cook both, together with sup ayam n kincam. Its my first attempt, relieved when my husbad loves it. I got the resepi from the internet :)

A new start...

Salam semua...
Today was my first day di sekolah baru. Since the weekly assembly starts at 12.30, i keluar jam 12, singgah kedai photostat. Rajin la pulak cina tokeh kedai photostat tu nak ajar anaknya yang TAK FAHAM2 guna mesin tu. Lucky to me, despite that, i managed to arrive at 12.20. Basically, semua ok sahaja. First day di tempat baru, jumpa new friends, new students... somehow, deep inside me rindukan tempat lama. Yela, tempat jatuh lagikan dikenang, ini kan pula tempat menabur bakti.
Actually, i had sore throat, dah few days dah. So, susah sket nak mengajar, sebab tekak rasa perit. Adoiiiiiiii....................
A good reminder for me... never kiss ur soulmate, when he's down with fever+cough+sore throat+flu, no matter how hard he persuaded you ;p ;p ;p ;p

Its a new start...

Salam semua,
I hope its not too late for me to wish Selamat Tahun Baru. Semoga kehadiran tahun baru ini membuka satu lagi lembaran bermakna dalam hidup kita masing2. Soalan popular, mcm biasa la, apa azam tahun baru anda? As for me, my usual azam is" semoga hari ini lebih baik dari semalam" its not that i takde goal, mission or something, its just that there is sometimes too much, that my rational mind concluded it in one simple sentence, so that i dont get too frustrated in case it doesn't happen.
How was ur sambutan tahun baru? im the kind of person yang mmg tak suka bersesak2, bukan sebab dah tua, tp mmg dr azali tak suka ke tempat crowded. Lucky for me, my husband feels the same way. Kalau tidak, harus pukul 8 dah bersesak2 ke dataran merdeka nak tengok bunga api. Talked bout bunga api, i remembered one funny incident which happenned back in 2008 during countdown new year, when my family+my MIL bersungguh2 nak tengok bunga api tahun baru, we brought them to putrajaya... peliknya, dah pukul 10 lebih ada beberapa je keta. Thinking we might be early, sembang2 sambil makan aiskrim..... sampaila.... 12.15am, apa pun takde, rupanya putrajaya tak sambut tahun baru. hehehehe, kesian my parent and my MIL.
Last saturday, we attended abang pojie's wedding, my uni mate di uia. Best betul jumpa kawan2 lama, meriah sungguh!!!! tak tau bila lagi boleh jumpa2 macam tu, maybe kenduri SHIDAH?????????????? (I know u'll be reading this, jangan mare haaaaaa). Apa2 pun, the brides was stunning, abang pojie pun nampak happy je, semoga berkekalan hingga ke akhir hayat. Yang tak best, tak dapat join nadia n nurul ke ikea. When i said to my husband nak ke ikea... bulat bijik matanya, "kan kita dah pergi semalam, nak cari apa lagi????" ye la, orang tu dah habis beribu kan, mesti bising. Sorry guys, tak dapat join. Besides, we're also waiting for lori ikea utk deliver few furnitures yang dibeli. So smlm, the whole ptg sampai malam, we were busy doing some house deco. The main obj is, nak kemaskini 2 stor kami, supaya lebih tersusun n jadikan ruang tamu atas as SOHO(small office/house office). Alhamdulillah... semua selesai. I'll upload the pic later, k.
Tomolo, kena kembali bertugas. This time ada few changes. I dah tukar sekolah, one which is closer to our house, tak perlu lagi memandu 45 minit utk sampai ke seklah, this time it only took 15 mins. Second, i dah sekolah ptg, so pg adala masa untuk menguruskan rumah. What do i feel bout sekolah baru? hmmmmm.... semangat nak mula bertugas tak sebaik tahun lepas. I was telling my husband, " di sekolah lama, i dah ada reputasi, dah ada job scope, dah ada kepercayaan, tapi sekolah baru..." what i'll miss the most is a dear friend, kak has. Even masa cuti pun dah rindu. Oklah, that's all for today, kena bersiap2 utk hari baru esok.
P/S: HAPPY SEBAB TONIGHT KAMI DAH BOOKING NEW FRIDGE, sabtu sampai. And, like my past entry, i've selected Toshiba :) tak sabar tunggu sabtu ;p

Something new...

Salam semua....

I've been saving money for quite some time, to purchase sumthing that i've wanted for almost a year. When my husband gave his green light, i terus start saving. Actually, i've two things in mind....

  1. A new and bigger refrigerator
    2. A new sofa set
    so im stuck in between choosing among these two different item. The thing is, both item individually are very costly. So, i have to decide, which one goes first. Masa tengah pening2 kepala buat keputusan, my dearest husband came up with a very brilliant idea....

    My husband: Takpela, you kumpul duit beli peti ais, biar i belikan sofa.
    Me : Betulke bang?
    (with a big wide smile on my face... i replied again)
    Tapi i nak yang mahal tau...
    p/s: baik tak my husband? ;p
    so, after godek2 here and there, few brand caught my attention. Among...
Toshiba Fridge (GR-R38MDV]



Sharp 4 Door French Fridge [SJ-F70PSSL]

Toshiba Fridge [GR-RG73MDA]

Electrolux 3 Door Fridge [ETB-2603PA]

Frankly, i kinda like Toshiba Fridge [GR-RG73MDA], due to all these advantages:


Energy Saving Illumination Energy saving and maintenance-free LED lights with no heat emission ensure more stable temperature control.
Stylish Duct Cover Enhanced cool air wrap design with transparent blue decorative pattern creates a more stylish look.
Sliver (Ag) Anti-Bacterial Crisper Fruits and vegetables maintain their nutrients and stay fresh longer The Glass Collection Series5 Stars Energy Efficient Tempered Glass Door Hybrid Guard System
UV Fresh Guard
Cool Air Wrap
Hybrid Plasma DeodorizerTempered Glass ShelvesIce Twister Dimension : W655mm x D724mm x H1773mmWeight : 80kg

but still, the Sharp 4-door French Fridge [SF-F70PSSL], caught my attention, so much. is's so spacious, i can just imagine how organize my fridge will be. Not that it's not now, it's just that after sometime, brg2 mcm bertambah banyak pulak...

Sharp Plasmacluster Double French Door Refrigerator (S Class Series)
4-Door Symmetry Design
700 Litres Gross Capacity
556 Litres Net Storage Capacity
Stainless Steel Door Finish
Quick Freezing Compartment
Express Ice Making
Express Freezing ON/OFF

Double Honeycomb Deodorizer
Electronic Display / Control
Inside Light
4-Litre Bottle Holder
Fresh Case

mencabar betul. But, cut the crap, maybe i'll choose the Toshiba since the black plasma door certainly match my kitchen cabinet ;p

peti ais lama akan dihadiahkan kepada my sis yang baru kawin dan baru nak mula hidup sendiri :)

I'll decide later, tuuuunnnnnggggguuuuuu.................................

Update.....

Salam semua...

Lamanya tak menulis. Actually, i've been away for quite sometime. 2 weeks to be exact. My husband sent me back to my hometown, ipoh. Kasihan my husband, terpaksa jadi 'orang bujang' sekejap, ke.... sebenarnya dia seronok???? ;p, nak kena tanya ni.... Tapi, sebelum meninggalkan, semua sudah disediakan. Sampai sakit2 pinggang, meng'iron' 7 pasang baju kerja abang dalam satu malam, kemas dua beg berbeza, siapkan 10 kilo sambal pecal.... letih betul...
My sis's wedding was on 12 and 13 of dec. SIBUKNYA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tuhan sahaja yang tahu. There's a lot of things to be settled, to be planned, to be estimate etc. My parent insisted, not to use the catering service, so kami masak sendiri, sama macam my wedding dulu. Actually, kami adik beradik dah pakat2, nak pujuk mama and abah, tak perlu la masak sendiri, just ambil katering. Yes, masak sendiri lebih menjimatkan, tapi penatnya... rasa macam nak cabut kaki and gantung kat dinding je.
This is the second wedding ceremony for my family. We learnt a lot from the first one, which is my wed. Ada banyak benda yang terkilan rasa di hati. A lot of thing that i wish i've done differently. Can you just imagine, ptg lepas Asar nak nikah, 2 pm im still with baju buruk, tengah mengacau lauk??? Bising je mak andam.... Andai boleh diputar waktu.... well, enough of that, bak kata my husband, "yang sudah tu sudah, yang penting semua berjalan lancar, kita dah selamat...." Tht's why, for my sis wedding, i dont want the same thing that happenned to me, happen to her. We've tried our best, to make sure that everything run smoothly. Yes, kita merancang, Tuahn menentukan, there are flaws, here and there, but nobdy's perfect right. Alhamdulillah.... semua berjalan lancar. I'll upload pics later, penat masih beluh hilang lagi ni.... adoiiiiiii.......................................................................

A trip...

Salam semua....
Few weeks back, we took two days off, plus saturday and sunday for a weekend getaway to sabah :)

Actually, we've been planning this trip since may, when we returned from langkawi. I guess, its just our habit, to plan another trip, as soon as we got off from the current one. Talking bout future plan, we've already planned our next trip, dari inside plane, otw balik sepang :) but still, we haven't decided, between bandung or vietnam... Enough with that, some snippet bout our recent trip.
12th Nov~khamis


boarded air asia (now everyone can fly) at 3.20, we headed straight to tawau. one of my sil is currently staying in lahad datu, so she n her family was our tourist guide. Arrived tawau airport at around 5.30 pm, already dah gelap. i thought it was going to rain, hehehe terlupa pulak sana malam awal.
Had our dinner at a kelantanese restaurant (memang org bisness, they're everywhere). then, check-in di bandar tawau.



dinner

13th Nov~ jumaat
Ehem... subuh sini masuk awal ye... so, kalau2 rasa jam tu alarm still alarm semenanjung, sila la tukar ye... else, subuh gajah la jawabnya ;p
Our first destination was pasar gantung, located di bandar tawau. bought a lot souviners there. then, shopping bahan kering di pasar tawau. murah gilerrr... siap dapat banyak free stuff lagi. tapi, all these ikan kering, udang kering, bilis etc, caused my sil's car, berbau... sepanjang hari....

semuanya murah2 di sana
we then went straight to sampoerna, just an hour++ drive from bandar tawau.
istimewa skali, otw ke sampoerna, kami singgah kedai tepi jalan... ada orang teringin......

DURIAN!!


sempat jugak kami bergambar dgn bangla jual durian ni hehehehe...

decided to try new experience, we decided to stay for a night di chalet called 'floating' by locals. sangat istimewa, the chalets was build, few feet above the sea level. something my sil warned: "atas air ni, jangan ganas2, takut berkocak air laut" ;p and i answered, "tell it to ur brother" ;p ;p ;p





sekitar rumah penginapan 'floating'







gambar jalan2. tak banyak sebab jalannya jauh, i slept allllllll the way.......


sini ada sikit pics taken there.



antar souviners yang berjaya dirembat di sana. siap 2x tekan atm, sbb x cukup duit beli mutiara. geleng kepala je my husband. jangan risau bang... duit i kan... ;p

An Update...

Salam semua...

Actually, i have a lot on my mind... few things happenned but still belum ada kesempatan untuk update. Last week, i attended my mother's farewell & jamuan akhir tahun. Macam tak percaya, my mum is already 56 years (which makes me feel older too). So 20th Oct was my mum's last day, as a teacher, after serving for more than 30 years. The ceremony went well, few tears here and there. It was overwhelming, since everyone including my future brother in law ada. Enjoy some pic.


All the six of us, one is not around, ada final paper di shah alam









Us with mama n abah

i wanted to upload more, tapi belum sempat transfer dalam komputer. Later ok. hmmm... gambar my husband pun takde ni...



Im a bit excited, waiting for this coming weekend. I have to attend a one-day course at concorde shah alam. A protocol course, for isteri2 gov officer. The best part was, when i told my husband bout it, he suddenly suggested that we stay there for the weekend instead ;p aduh bestnya....



So we already booked bilik and ...







Our plan would be...







Friday 6th Nov



- check-in after jumaat prayer



-ptg- rehat2 kejap



-malam - dinner and midnight show @ the curve (lama betul tak tengok midnight...)



- then balik hotel la apa lagi ;p







Saturday 7th Nov



- morning until 4 pm - i'll be attending the course while my husband akan seeeeebbbukkk sangat main golf.



- petang- movie lagi....



- malam - dinner







Sunday 8th Nov



- Check-out



- IKEA :)







Frankly speaking, this is enough for me, a perfect weekend getaway. Di waktu orang lain sibuk berjalan2 merata2, langkawi, medan etc, kitorg dapat jalan2 luar rumah jadi la.... tak sabarnya...
