i'd say it's gonna take a while for vienna pics. and did i say vienna? hehehe

sebena-sebena memang sebenanya this trip was a very last minute one. the hubby submitted a paper to workshop that we thot won't go tru but only was informed the acceptance in like 2++ weeks before the conference started. we only managed to settle the flight tikets and accomodation in 1 week time and it's bole-tahan stressful. actually i paid for 2 flight tikets and some belanja-belanja as the hubby was sponsored by the uni. bole laa kan.. but we had to cover for every expenses and claim later. nak tanak kena ada some money upfront huhuhu

the best to describe vienna trip: sangat seronok, warm, friendly, very comforting, vibrant vienna. tak sesak sangat. yang pelik kiterang rasa homey. jadi betul juga seperti yang aku pernah baca, viennese welcome tourist like a long lost noble family.

konklusinya:
1. we stayed in the 13th distric, heitzing home to Schönbrunn Palace and Tiergarten Zoo among others. 8-10 minutes from city centre.
2. giant ferris wheel ride, terasa menggigil gak lutut. ooo gayat
3. merayau hampir satu city covered kut
4. natural history museum tour, Kunsthistorisches Museum
5. posh viennese
6. souvenirs adalah mahal, cheapest fridge magnet is around euro3.90

if not because of this confence, probably we don't have so much headache thinking about our moving day and credit shrinkings. but because of this conference, we had the opportunity to be part of vienna even only for days.

salam ramadhan semua =)

a little training before puasa

Wednesday, August 20, 2008

tak sampai dua minggu lagi kita akan menyambut kedatangan ramadhan. aku strongly rasa aku ni perlukan sket training supaya nanti tadelaa melepek sangat. kalu tidak huuu teruk gak kut awal-awal nanti.

rutin harian. bangun pagi selalunya jarang breakfast kat rumah, selalunya aku minum air je. kalu sempat hot drink otherwise air kosong je. bekal untuk lunch bole kata seminggu probabiliti dia ialah 3 hari out of 5. kalu tak bawak bekal beli sandwich atau veggie option. sampai je opis, first stop ialah mesin kopi. by pukul 8, selalunya aku dah setel 2 cups. 9 lebih selalunya kelaparan, kena cari roti plak atau pastri dari kafe. another cup or two lagi before lunch. lepas tu hati pon senang. tapi selalunya kan by the time aku sampai rumah tatau le kenapa mesti rasa lapar balik. selalunya aku makan cereal sebelom prepare untuk dinner pulak. aaa jadi logik laa kan aku rasa a bit worried nak pose ni huhu

tapi kalu pike-pike balik insyaAllah sebab niat pose tu laa menjadikan ketahanan badan tu lebih. biasalaa kan awal sehari dua melepek sket. especially bila balik umah ada plak orang lain yg makan aku balik. ye, she's turning 26 months (tomorrow laa) and still breastfeeding..

tapela, kita gradually kurangkan makan di opis. train perut okie..

argh-gila

the witch of portobello

Tuesday, August 19, 2008


sebenanya dah lama abis tapi amik masa lama untuk pikekan review yang sesuai. chee 'review' tu hehehee

aku beli in the first place sebab paolo coelho at the charity shop jadi bole agak le kan bape harganya. kalu tatau sapa dia ni, dia adalah brazilian novelist dan lyricist. aku kira buku paling femes dia ialah the alchemist, most people akan tau. aku penah jumpa sorang pakcik ni dia baca the french alchemist jadi in general the alchemist is a well-known.

the witch of portobello ni pasal sorang pompuan yang mencari-cari apa sebenanya yang dia cari dalam hidup dia yang define purpose dia in life, true happiness dan satisfaction. dari london ke dubai blaja kaligrafi lepas tu romania mencari mak dia lepas tu balik london dan kadang-kadang ke glasgow blaja ala-ala black magic dengan cikgu dia dan lepas tu turn dia plak yang jadi cikgu mengajar dan blaja. apa yang dia ajar, life dan something beyond life. err lebih kurang le..

sebenanya aku pon tak paham sangat spiritual journey minah ni. as i read towards the end, lagi aku tak paham apa yang minah ni nak sebenanya. kompleks sangat. agaknya sebab tu aku stick with the book dan habiskan jugak, sebab nak tau apa yang jadi kat athena. yang menariknya persepsi terhadap athena disampaikan tru orang lain dalam hidup dia.

jadi apa bole aku katakan - up to you, nak baca bole je. tamo pon ada banyak lagi menda bole buat/buku bole baca akakaakakakaa

journey pembacaan aku - aku sentiasa pegang pada reading is a good habit, it's a learning process.

si miaw miaw

Tuesday, August 12, 2008

aku suka kucing tapi semenjak kucing aku hilang waktu darjah 6 terus aku jadi tawar hati. kata orang time heals, ye kut dan amik masa sangat lama. 20++ tahun lebih tuu.. lepas si miaw-miaw aku hilang, kucing-kucing lain yang kiterang bela dah tak sama..

rasa macam pecaya tak pecaya je bila cousin aku citer dia beli kucing, katanya teman dia. yang jadi problem bila dia nak balik becuti, camne dengan kucing nih.. waktu memula kiterang becerita tu tetiba aku menjadi excited dan terus semangat husya kucing online. tapi dia cakap tak payah laa jaa,tak tejaga nanti. hmm btul gak, lagi-lagi malas nak pike kalau nak travel ke. dan aku memang tengah tebayang-bayang apa kenit akan cakap huhuhu

memang satu hari nanti aku rasa nak bela kucing balik. mungkin jugak time tu aaqilah dan adik-adik yang menjaga besama-sama hehehe dengan keadaan sekarang ni, rasionalnya aku sendiri tak berapa mampu dari segala segi..hehehe segitiga segiempat polygon heksagon aiyoo

the cupids

Monday, August 11, 2008

my remarks about the archery team consists of 3. dari observations ialah archery women team.

1. anchor woman - the one who will step up wenever she needs or must to step up

2. the consistent one - yang akan produce mata-mata konsisten

3. faktor tak stabil - contributes lowest points as well as highest points dengan tak semena-mena.

unlike most of teams, the korean team i think has 1 anchor woman and the remaining 2 are the consistent contributors. they streamrolled every teams on their way to final and even won the gold in such a stylish way. when they broke the record with 231 out of 240, i can only wonder (didn't see this one) how accurate and consistent they were.

biasala aku, teringin plak rasanya nak mencupid gak esp my en.bos yang meninggalkan repot dengan logik yang aku rasa tak logik tapi menurut dia logik dan aku sangat hangin dan berangin dan rasa weh cepatla tade orang mau amik aku keje je &%^&&^$"$^&(*

zero eight zero eight zero eight

Friday, August 08, 2008

i don't really care much less about date nowadays. probably because i want to keep up with time. every seconds i hope i could recall precisely every inch in details heheheh.

all i know this month is quite hectic, release schedule, training, data migration, kawan going back fo good and hubby's conference. shortly after dat is the coming of glorious ramadhan, pindah umah, bday and anniversary, raya, etc. kononnya by not keeping track of date i could save some elements of suprise there, atleast for myself laa.

no wonder a lot of my frens blogs updated today embracing the 08.08.08. clever! shud i or shud i not. i have slightest knowledge about numbers or fengshui. to some people 8 is a lucky prosperous number. to me not a favourite one, only dat i was born in the year of 80. 7 or 4 is much more preferable than using 8 hint hint

anyway i hope the opening ceremony of olympic games today is a succesful one as the organizer hopes it will be the greatest in olympic's history. let's pray for the olympic as the center stage to peace, harmony and unity, not for any political agenda or terrorism threats

Citius, Altius, Fortius

for the next 2 weeks we're turning on the couch potatoes mode.

parenting

language without barrier

Thursday, August 07, 2008

I was and sometimes a little worried when aaqilah still doesn't speak. looking at the parents, i was a talkative one when i was a little girl. the hubby also talkative even up until now.

eventho she doesn't converse in the language that people understand, she speaks everytime using her hands, facial expressions and she mutters her own words. instead of one way learning, all of us learn at the same time. she learns wordings and languages from the parents and vice versa as we learn her language and physical expressions.

she points to watever catches her eyes. she pushes aside telling us can u work harder please, this is not wat i want. she isn't really straight-forward anymore, she now knows a lot of our tricks. she throws rubbish into bin, even once i lost my 20pound she took from my bag and found the note in the bin. bahaya btul.. actually most of her words starts with 'a'. but the easiest to reckon is when she throws herself on the floor for deniable requests or showing her protests towards the parents. tahap ultima ini selalunya bila penat atau ngantuk jadi level mengada-ngada tu memang tinggi.

a fren of mine told me dat one of her girls was quite like aaqilah before, she started speaking at 3++. not from one word to another word, her vocabs are like 3 year old and produced long complete sentences. when she answered 3++ tahun, i was like relieved and from my pelik-funny expression all of us bursted into roaring laughters.

lala she refers to current favorite teletubbies show

teringat semasa dulu

secawan kopi dan biskut azan

Tuesday, August 05, 2008

bebaru ni waktu mencari barang tetiba aku tejumpa sebungkus biskut azan yang mak aku bawak itu hari.

memang sengaja simpan untuk hari yang sangat menyenangkan, tapi ntah bila. kebetulan rasa lapar, jadi aku jerang air dan biskut azan completes kopi panas perfectly.

biskut azan atau biskut arab atau biskut panjang atau biskut kering. i couldn't recall how the name stucked. mungkin sebab cap azan jadi kiterang panggil biskut azan. seriusly aku tak ingat. the packaging has now commercially changed. looks better and of course the price hikes up a little bit.

disebabkan aaqilah ni ada sekali jadi dia mesti sebok-sebok gak nak involve sama. sambil melayan kopi panas dan biskut azan aku pon becerita kat aaqilah.

"aaqilah nak tau, kecik-kecik dulu maa suka biskut ni cicah dengan kopi. kopi nenek maa ialah one of the best dan even sampai sekarang maa suka request kat nyang aaqilah nak kopi. kalau nenek aaqilah dengar mesti dia bising, sebabnya still mintak kat nenek yang buat.. bla bla blaa "

tak kesahla aaqilah paham ke tak tapi dia pon excited dipping the biskut dalam kopi. tapi dip je laa pastu tinggalla biskut kembang. aku pon cepat-cepat kaut dan makan, sayang tuuu dah le datang dari jauh ni..

kopi panas dan biskut azan akan sentiasa buat aku tesengih sorang dan teringat zaman aku budak-budak. ye betul even sampai sekarang kalau balik lenggeng aku still make a special request kopi nenek. kopi yang nicely mixed, pahit kopi but not too bitter, manis gula but not too sweet. sekarang pon nenek aku takdela larat nak angkat cerek air panas tapi tetap nak buatkan kopi walopon dengan bagi instructions je. shortly after dat, along biskut azan ada dalam bekas tu..

ahaiii, windunya..
