this month we gonna have another visitor yeppee

besfren aku is coming over as she's on a bisnes trip (ish ish envy u hehe) in london. jadi dia pon plan nak spend more days, katanya birthday treat. aku pon nak plan seplais seplais le gini hehehehe

last nite we had an early dinner, i think it's before 8 wen i tidied up the mess aaqilah made. biasa le dia tu, makannya tak seberapa tapi yg besepahnya paling seronok dilihat. everytime after dinner, the hubby akan bising kat aaqilah, aku rasa dia pon tak paham lagi tu hahahahaa then kiterang layan champions league the match between ac milan n arsenal. it's man u - lyon on the other channel dan tesangatla tak beminatnya nak tengok. aku tau budak yo-yo-poyo tu mesti belagak gile since he took man u to the next round. apa raaa ac milan, outplayed and outwitted. tonite, i'd like to see how inter and roma turn the game to their advantages. walopon aku rasa in ur face to inter last week muahahahahahaa or will italy have no reps after this in this year's champs league? we'll see.. ah bosanlah kalu gitu jadinya

harapnya hari ni jadila plan poyo aku yang tak jadi semalam. semangat jangan hilang dulu okie

ari ni mau dinner apa ye hmmm

this entry is a tribute to my skill-tak-seberapa dalam dunia masak-memasak

sempena kedatangan orang baru insyaAllah petang ni hehehe aku teringat dan terasa nak citer la sket pasal aku dan the new baby nih. ada satu masa dulu-dulu di zaman sekolah, neighbor dekat rumah bagi la satu kek cokelat nih, uih sedap dan mak nida (neighbor, nida tu anak dia) dengan baik hatinya kasi resepi kat mak aku. mak aku juga dengan rajinnya used to go to kelas bakery dekat area rumah jugak dengan satu auntie nih yang sememangnya ada kedai kek or bisness kek camtu aaa aku tak bape ingat sangat dah, ni waktu sekolah rendah lagi. kelas buat kek cokelat jugak uih sedap sedap. after that mak aku sekali sekala buat untuk kiterang, tapi combination, kek resepi lain, topping resepi lain. lepas tu jadi kek spesel di hari raya.

aku plak memang minat sangat dengan cokelat + biskut + bakery. seingat aku rasanya, aku mula try buat kek waktu form 1 or form 2 kut. time tu semangat abis-abisan. lepas tu ada kawan aku kasi idea, dia kata nak order la dan tanya bape agaknya. tak mahal aku rasa, tak lebih rm20 rasanya aku amik sebijik. kira ok la kan, cam extra income untuk budak sekolah. buat 2 biji pon rasa kaya dah tu. dah le modal sumer mak support, aku buat tapi duit jual kek kira hadiah sumer aku dapat hehehehe. time tu seronok, cuma satu je aku komplen sket. aku selalu ayat-ayatkan mak aku beli kenwood mixer cam dalam tv tu. bigger bowl and speedy mixer. cam begaya la aku rasa. then mak aku jawab balik, esok awak dah besar beli laa satu huhuhuhu huk ala, aku nak buat kek sekarang ni..

tapi tu la kan, prodigous starter blooms early but it's not an easy job to maintain (mak aih perasan tak hengat). cam ronaldo yang skang duk injured je, cam tu jugak le aku pon. sebab dah tere awal sangat (chee tere tu, sungguh perasan) sekarang ni jadi malas dan hanya bejogging di atas padang sewaktu match. kalu raya menjelang tiba, aku selalu dapat request buatlah kek. huih kemalasan jugak huhuhu bukannya apa, buat kek tu aku rasa tade hal, ok je. tang topping dia tu, aduuhhhh sejam to 2 jam jugakla lenguh tangan duk mengaco dengan api yang slow itu. aku selalu cakap, kalu ada assistant a.k.a kuli bole la buat, yet alasan lagik. aku rasa patut jadi cam del piero, walopon dah tua tapi tetap effektif sebab talented and gifted hahahahaha

i strongly feel i'm coming back sooooooonnnnn hehehehehe

semalam aku sangat tensen bila tetiba aku tengok mesin kopi dah sealed off. arrgghh lapa lapa lapa ngantuk ngantuk ngantuk.. memang lebam gak le pagi semalam. dozy je.

tapi bila dapat email explained pasal mesin kopi tu aku rasa daripada free biarlah ramai-ramai tak dapat sakit. sebabnya bebaru ni derang found out yang mesin ni dah contaminated, level of bacteria present was above an acceptable standard. TETAPI, e.coli dan coliforms were not present dalam sample yang dihantar ke lab. eii seram bila teringat berapa cups aku dah telan ??

memula orang banyak anta reports dan komplens pasal mesin selalu breaks down. lepas tu rasa kopi atau tea atau hot chocolate ada sedikit cam haram. ada 3 lokasi mesin yang aku tau, oddly 3-3 bole rasa tak sama padahal sumer tu computerized. walopon macam-macam, taste of drinks tu aku rasa still acceptable to most people, convinient sebab within opis je dan the no 1 factor is free. minumla sebanyak mana pon.

jadi freebies dah tade, kena le spend sket untuk kopi nun di cafe sana huhuhu.. aku rasa cam nak bawak kopi sendiri le pasni, tapi kena carik tumbler dulu le jawabnya

duit bole dicari untuk beli kopi ye tak..

Lately aku selalu bangun lambat. The bus comes around at 6.35, by 6.30-6.31 aku mesti kena klua rumah. Aku rasa first two three weeks, aku akan bangun before 6, dalam 5.50 then 5.55. Then bila dah dah pandai budget dalam pukul 6 plak. Ada sekali tu lambat dalam 6.15 tapi managed untuk naik bas jugak. Kelam kabut yang bole tahan.

Jadi begitula, aku ni makin lama makin liat nak bangun pagi. Tapi tak dapatnya nak besiap dalam suasana aman damai. Kalu sempat tu ada la mekap sikit-sikit. Kalu tak sempat tu tade la. Subuh kat opis ada laa dalam 2-3 kali. Jadi sebagai balasan untuk orang bangun lambat, aku kena tinggal bas last week. Elok-elok depan mata bas pegi dengan lajunya. Mujur bas stop depan rumah, so aku naik atas balik minum air panas.

How long do you guys normally take to get ready in the morning? Aku rasa sejam- to 45 mins is just nice. Mandi relax, then semayang dengan lebih khusyuk, breakfast, makeup sket, etc.. Kalu anak nak anta nursery lagi, lagi kena amik masa lebih nak prepare tuu.

Recently, to be precise semalam hehehe kiterang ada le masak-masak sket dan panggil kawan-kawan datang makan. Ada orang tanya sempena apa? Sempena pindah rumah baru yang kiterang masuk back to last September kihkihkih alaa sesaja seronok-seronok masak, then seronok-seronok cam gathering gitu. aku seronok tengok orang seronok makan sampai rasa kenyang hehehe. yela the host bz, tak sempat sangat nak makan. the hubby tolong aku bakar ayam, so aku rasa dia dah bole dinaikkan pangkat chef ayam tandoori. eh, dia jugakla tukang marinate ayam, aku tukang campak-campak je. hats off to u chef ayam..

malam tadi kiterang tido dengan lena sebab kekenyangan dan kepenatan. aku rasa aaqilah bangun sengih-sengih pukul 2 kut, dia main sorang sebab our turn plak to tido pengsan hehehhehehe

ada satu orang dalam team aku nih, sangat teringin aku nak jumpa dia. bukannya apa, the level of his fussiness is so high that makes me want to strangle him sometimes hahahaha

yes, he's him. basically the team i'm working with is in a small scale, dulu ada 6 skarang tinggal 5 since sally, my manager's secretary left awal tahun ari tu. jadi 2 kat southampton, aku and clive, the rest sumer kat eindhoven (NXP-IT headquarters sini la babes hehehe). since the first day i started, clive already mentioned about this one particular guy.

very fussy, very attentive to details, quite sensitive hmmm, easily annoyed, mostly karakter pompuan ye tak. so when i meet guys with these characters it seems that they're more difficult to handle. sebab tu aku teringiiin sangat nak jumpa face to face, sapalah yang rajin emel aku nih dengan questions, komen-komen, proposals, list job yang panjang. the most recent, the 3 of them have to review documents and web stuffs and guess who's the first to respond. of course it's henk with a very long list yang buat aku naik pening tengok. tapi sebenanya kan in a good way it teaches me to be very detailed too and helpes me a lot in doing my jobs.

this morning clive came with some good news. henk is really pleased with me hehehehehe pleased tak pleased, all the above are true and i won't take them back.

uh lapanya. pagi-pagi selalu masalah gini, lapaaa

setelah checked menu it seems ada macam-macam kat cafe so i headed to cafe to buy myself good to eat. tetapi malangnya, nampak cam tade pape je. i went back and forth looking at the food they had, hmmm tade yg bole dimakan. makcik cashier tu perati je. and finally with guts i asked if they have hash brown today. dia pon explained, hari jumaat memang derang serve macam-macam as in full breakfast set, sebab derang ni suka proper breakfast, lepak-lepak n chill. but why only on friday, why??? aku rasa aku tau kenapa hari jumaat je ada

so eurest cafe this is what i'd love to propose. please sell hash brown everyday at least if you can't have what half on the friday. in stead of only bacon and sausages, how about adding fried bread and baked bean and hash brown. let's call it breakfast set only for 99p which you can get cup of coffee or tea + 2 or 3 watever of your choice. (sebenanya ni cafe uni punya breakfast style hehehe) please consider please please please (aku tau kalu mintak nasi lemak, roti canai, bihun goreng mesti tak dapat punya)

jadi apa aku dapat? one piece yucky choc cake (80p, wat you'd expect??) from vending machine and kopi laa apa lagi

memang benci btul bila lapa dan aku tak bawak bekal dan kena betahan at least sampai 11.30 dan kena depends only on hot drinks.

how did we spend last weekend?

aaqilah dan maa spent time kat rumah je sebab weekend bebaru ni ada mini asian games kat uni, untuk asian students which took place on sabtu dan ahad. macam-macam games ada, the hubby seperti biasalah, join basketball. dia kata badminton kurang minat, since mesian team dah fully occupied dan dia rasa dia cam lin dan, unbeatable..

walopon asian, tapi tak silap aku team the hubby main ni ada import sorang black, so dia kata team dia basically all chinese and 2 blacks. satu memang black lagi satu white trash (he referred to himself), macam eminem dalam 8th mile akakakaa kiterang tak dapat nak menyaksikan all the magics since duk umah. yela nak masuk sports building tu kena baya, nak-nak aku ni dah le bukan uni student. aku sure aaqilah seronok punya dapat berlari-lari dalam tu, tapi bayangkan kalu dia dah start bosan dan penat, kalu dia lari ke ayah dia sambil jerit "aaayah! aayah!" kang camne agaknya. tapi kan aku rasa, dia dah bole behaves dengan strangers hehehe tapi kalu depan kiterang, uissh ngadaaa.

so sabtu noon tu kiterang pegi portswood dulu, sopping barang-barang umah sket dan juga melawat charity shops mana tau ada barang baik. aku ni memang lemah dengan buku cite yang melambak kat charity tu jadi angkut satu, satu je la kan. kat umah ni dah ada 5-6 yang aku tak baca pon lagi ahahahahaa bila nak start ni pon tatau le. bukannya apa, murah pon dan mostly in mint condition.

the hubby punya game starts at 5pm. with best wishes from aku and aaqilah, dia pegi main dengan semangat membara. sebabnya dia rasa this year derang punya good chances nak gi final and win.

lebih kurang pkl 10 camtu dia balik accompanied with his gud fren yang main volleyball kat asian games tu. so aku tanya camne, dia kata derang stucked at the semi with one 1 point deficit. yang volleyball tu plak lost all 3 games, so tak lepas nak gi semi. kira senasib le dua orang nih. aku tried to console, fight le korang kalah 1 point. dia kata tak jugak,bole menang tadi tapi last minit mamat tu sorang tapi lay up tak masuk. aiseh sayangnyyyaaaaa. frust tak frust, aku nampak dia tekenang lagi tuuu.

teringat game basketball yang the hubby main waktu kat itm dulu, the time derang lawan the favorite bisness skool. sangat entertaining dan intense. we were only trailing 1 or 2 points from behind until the last minit when somebody shoot 3 points dan memotong bisness. gile besorak budak-budak tak ingat hehehe

jadi awak jangan tekenang sangat. untuk awak dan aaqilah enjoy!!



p/s: sorry for my language, sangat crap tskk..

nampaknya aku dilanda demam, demam nak kumpul bleach buat koleksi plak dah huhuhu

baru je aku rasa hidup ni dah aman dan tenang, dan tak rasa nak beli pape. ish kalu le the hubby tau, mesti kena gelak atau ayat-ayat biasa aku plak dapat. lately, tahap stress aku naik sket bila dengar citer-citer nak beli itu, nak beli ini sampai aku rasa the hubby pon tau yang topik ni 'panas'. dia rasa aku ni tak kewl dah.

bukannya apa, it's so overwhelming and the same really stressing bila one-shot one-time purchase nih. kehendak kita memang endless dan kita yang kena letak full stop dan disiplin diri sendiri kan. jadi camne aku nak sampaikan atau tunjuk kat the hubby menda ni bila aku sendiri takleh buat? memang next monthnye credit card statement aku tamo tengok, sakit kepala aduhhh aaqilah please picit eh

recent wishlist - it's just bleach manga up to latest volume

i hate seeing myself from the back. last nite the hubby showed me a photo he took as i was standing during cooking and i hated it..

aku rasa dari belakang i look the pendek and plump-plump.obviously giving birth almost 2 years ago changed my figure especially if you know where i mean. mmm patutla nampak debab je..

tapi lately aku selalu rasa yang aku dah gained some weigths.ok jugakla tapi aku nak proportionate elok-elok je. sudahlah si malas nak work out, ada hati nak let nature take its course huhuhu. bila tanya the hubby, dia kata mana ada gemuk. walopon rasa berisi, tapi still can fit in jeans aku hehehehe atau jeans aku kah yang expanding?

mengada-ngada ah aku nih.

perempuan dan isu berat badan, tak sudah-sudah

one of my passions is photography. i know it's kinda trendy nowadays and with the help of digital technology and availability of digi cam, everybody can take photos easily.

i started playing with camera since sekolah rendah due to the esposure from family. could'nt helped myself from getting nosy when seeing people taking pictures, i didn't want to be in the photo but the one who hold the camera. aku selalu rasa, i look hideous in the photo (sampai le sekarang) and the one who's taking photos is much way cooler hehehe in fact, i did asked for a camera if i scored all a's during my upsr.

ada orang tanya, sebab aaqilah ke kiterang beli kamera or sebab suka amik gamba. we looked at each other because from my part, i would never expect to get such a question. yela, obviously aaqilah is one of main parts why we spent on cameras. sayang kan bila travel tade kamera. atau bila ada menda menarik untuk dishare bersama.

even the hubby is so into photography sekarang. his ebay list was mainly on shoes is now abruptly getting replaced with lenses. aku rasa dia pon technically better sebab rajin mengkaji itu dan ini. aku plak malas huhuhu but we'll see..

from a photo it tells many stories =)

for those haven't seen this, or want to see any movie, juno is worth for your RM10 and 2 hours.

a reality check movie. a sweet one but not alaaa sweetnya atau cam pinky-sweet (why pink, maybe sebab org selalu relate pink and sweet), atau creamy sweet. aku rasa senario macam ni, ko dengar satu headbanging-trash song then tetiba ko cakap, eh sweet gak lagu ni. or ko tengah menikmati kopi yang kaw macam espresso dan ko notice the sweetness in the bitterness, hehehee. dan aku suka tengok ellen page a.k.a miss juno nih (ellen, u so cute ah!!), mengingatkan aku pada seseorang wakakakakaa aku rasa waktu budak-budak sekolah dulu awek camnilah aku nak jadi agaknya. tetapi sekarang ini idak lagi gitu. yela dah nak 30 ni, pastu aku ni dah jadi wife and a mom. trashy chic yang udah menjadi classy lady (tadela trashy sangat pon huhuhu)

accidentally pregnant, relationships, finding love and the rite man, ready and not ready, parenthood, family, all in one. bapak kewl le parents dia ish ish.

now ni aku sentiasa dalam dilema yang makin lama makin pening. hari ni apa nak masak/makan? malas pon iye, penat pon iye, jadi kurang idea.

layan nasi hari-hari pon bole bosan.nak layan ikan selalu rasanya tadela semampu tu, ikan mahal oo. layan ayam hari-hari, oh memang bosan dan aku rasa tepu je dengan ayam. once in a while, i miss ikan masin huhuhu. bukannya apa, last time stock agak banyak that i confident will last long. tapi simpan dalam fridge yang turned off selama 2 bulan ni tak tahan. makan egg-based? sesapa yang tatau lagi, aku ni choosy pasal telur, mengada tak hehehe

bitchin je, buku masak bukan tade, ada 3 lagi huhuuh jamie-style, nigella pon ada. internet 24-7 everything at the fingertips. rasanya semangat berapi aku sesejuk winter nih.

lame reason, alaa kalu ada xxxx baru la bole buat hehehe

yesterday's conversation,

her: awk nak baby this yr ke next yr?
him: eh, awak dah ready ke?
her: tadela, pike-pike je. mana better, before balik and start keje atau kat mesia je dan dah kerja?
him: saya tak kesah sangat. if now, maknanya bulan 10.saya tgh bz nak abis tuu.
her: tadela bulan 10, 11 ada, 12 ada, 1 nxt year pon adaa.
him: kalu mak awk ada,bila-bila pon tadehal..
her: aaqilah nak baby sis ke baby bro?
lil her: eeeeyyy

gitula adanye hehehehe

to be cont'd..

if friday is a malas day, then monday also a malas day, jadi which day(s) is my rajin day?

aiyoo

all, enjoy ur weekend. hope a blast one!

We don't have any recent photos.
This one was taken like 3 months ago.




















Reasons of this entry:
1. apalagi, fotopages is updated
2. tambah entries hehehee

hari isnin aku sangat suka membelek menu minggu ini. seperti biasa, menda yang bole dimakan ialah veggie section dan juga ikan. tapi sedinya ikan macam tak popular je kat nxp ni. cuba ko letak ikan, gerenti hari-hari aku tak bawak bekal punya. walopon variety namanya, aku rasa kureng mmpph compared to skandia dulu (aku tak rasa sesapa nxpian pon paham so bole kutuk lagi wakakakaa).

aku sangat wonder la, kenapa omputehs (ops, bukan omputehs saje) ni suka sangat memakan babs? even aku yang membaca menu pon terasa geli-geli ditekak, cuba korang baca plak. roast leg of pork leg of pork served with sage & onion stuffing, apple sauce roast potatoes & vegetables. harga £4.00 paling mahal dalam minggu ni untuk lunch. itu kalu dia masak isi perut babs lagi aku terasa geli geleman. ke aku je rasa gitu huhuhuhu

back to ikan, tolongla eurest provide menu ada ikan at least 3 times a week, nak-nak salmon, saya suke ittew.

pagi ni aku datang opis, dozy je, ini aaqilah punya hal le. tapi lain cerita le ye.

ciao

not so good news la. yesterday, an email from amazon saying that money has already been refunded meant that lil red will not be coming huhu

the seller's reason: the item is damaged and the last one in stock.

aku rasa inilah risk membeli barang-barang sucker, ada-ada je ups and downs. strangely i feel relieved, kalu lil red nanti bemasalah satu kerja lagi nak post. tapi apa akan jadi kalu seller tu menghilangkan diri (rasanya rarely happens) dan macam-macam lagi.

so, i'll have more time, more thinking to be done, more colors to choose yeay!!cuma more money to spend errrr

mana satu lagi hot?

my recent puchase made not only myself but the hubby as well fell silent afterwards. i've been dreaming this day and nite, even in my sleeps. perh, teruknya akibat..

not handbags, not a pair of gorjes kasut, not baju. it's tadaaaa

come to mommie lil red riding hood

Who doesn't like posh english ascent? errr i do a bit..

one of the good reasons is before i hardly i understand english-english ascent hahahahaha. teruk tak teruk la. probably since i was young i have been exposed a lot to tv series and movies and even songs from us, didn't we. lagi, i hardly spoke english unless i had to. segan pon iye, i felt that people judged when i spoke. eiii salah tu. eiii apa le dia cakap tu..macam tu laa. even sampai sekarang pon kena gelak lagi huhuhu

in fact the first time i got here, it's a lingual shock listening to many kind of different ascents. scottish cakap pelik.even english pon pelik. northen part sounds pelik yang tak macam standard english langsung. yang sedap cumalah orang yang baca berita. then european-english ascent yang sudah tentu varies, tengok la originally ko datang dari mana. tak citer other asian-english, then south-american-english, african-english. luckily that people i work around sound normal.

this is managers comment. ur english is fine, it's just sometimes i couldn't catch ur ascent.

ye, apakah english ascent aku. jadi aku kena berbangga, yang lidah melayu aku tu memang kuat hehehehe malay-english ascent le apa lagi. malu gak nak admit that i was quite ashamed with my malay-english before this, wanted to sound american-english, dengarnya macam coolio indeed.

why we should be ashamed laa?kita selalu camtu,orang lain tak penah kesah duh.to them,ini bahasa kebangsaan aku,english comes second.
