Nagoya

Thanks to Nagoya textile for the RM 2.00/metre and RM 2.50/metre sale this week. Me, my mother and my aunty bought quite a lot of those. The quality is good and even though quite undated but you gave us the opportunity to buy something with quality cheaper. So, everyone can wear textiles from your company.

I will drop by Nagoya again when I visit Kuala Lumpur. I hope you will keep up giving ' true ' sales to your customer. Chayo, Nagoya! Arigato hait!

A creepy get-away

Creepy?

We were on a just want to get-away from everyday routine that day. Without any plans whatsoever we went for a hotel or resort hunt. I ended up in a resort somewhere in Cherating. I wouldn't want to name the resort. The name was eyecatching. Per night is RM 120.00 since it's a weekday.

When we entered the room I was surprised to find that the bathroom's door is only half of it. So, you're exposed. I asked my hubby for a better room which should complify the room rate. The receptionist said there is only one other room left and they had never again give the room to any other customers. My hubby enquire whether it's haunted but they simply laugh at him and gave him the keys. My hubby mentioned these only after we check-out.

Actually this new room was also in a bad condition with vey old matresses that I can feel it actually wrecked in my every move that I kept still till morning. The bathroom door is three quarter wrecked than the previous. The room also felt creepy that I stay awoke all night.

The swimming pool was orange in colour, you can guess why. We check out early in the morning and this should be our first and the last. In fulfilling my hobby on adventure this is the worst resort hotel I have been to in my country, Malaysia. I have been to small budget hotels but they are still better.

holiday

I went to Genting Highlands last week. Not that cold so, just a perfect weather for a good time.I brought along 2 nieces and a nephew. Actually by my hubby's side. I took a two days leave. I wouldn't tell you how it was, but I really had a fun time watching them play every games they dare to try. As for me, I am not really keen on the games. I actually just watch and enjoy the cold weather. So, comfortable than the hot weather down there. The rain haven't showed up nearly a month, if I'm not wrong. My daughter was so happy and it really makes me feel the same. She loves the rodeo ride and bumper car. I think she played triple on both. Children......

My face

2 weeks ago, my toddler came back from kindergarden and eagerly wants me to learn her new song. So, there she is becoming my kindergarden teacher and stressing on every phrase and actions. Let me share it with you. Please do the appropriate action.

My face.
This is my face.
There are 2 eyes.
2 cheeks.
A nose.
A mouth.
A chin.

I can see with my 2 eyes.
I can hear with my 2 ears.
I can smell with my nose.
I can eat with my mouth.

Subhanallah. Allah cares.


I wonder why suddenly she mention the ears when in the beginning she mention cheeks. Children.......... Maybe she heard wrongly or just miss the words. I am proud of her.

For mom

I am so happy today. I bought a summer cotton blouse and a chiffon skirt for my mom last week. It looks really nice and I am pretty sure it will fit nicely into her. The blouse is in red with lots of beautiful blossom flowers and the skirt in black. The red colour would really fit her fair skin tone. The materials are so soft and light it will give an extra comfort in this hot weather.

I posted the clothes and happy to hear that things are as I expected. I am glad I made the right decision.I hope my mom will live a long and easy life. There are certain times that we are in trouble but things are much easier now. Even though we are miles away, I know deep in our hearts we are so close to each other.

Boring holiday

Life is so boring this Chinese New Year holiday. Imagine a 4 days holiday and my hubby's working. I don't like it a bit. I love having my hubby at home with us. But, well,that's life. We wouldn't get enough money to pay for appliance bills and monthly payments of our car and home.

We are looking forward for the Maulidur Rasul holiday. 3 days, Friday till Sunday. I hope that after this festive season, our country's economy will grain and expand greatly so everyone will have a comfortable life. To those who loose work, I hope you will soon get a new one to generate your family financially as usual. Thanks to God our country still survive through the turbulenced ( can I apply ).

Homeless To Harvard

I am watching the movie Homeless To Harvard. This is not my first time, because Astro kept repeating the movie these few years. However, I don't mind having to watch it for so many times. This movie is so motivating and touching. The life of Elizabeth is too difficult for me to handle that I think, all these years, I haven't realised how blessed my life is compared to her.

She's hungry and homeless. Fortunately there is this System that helped her grew strong and determined. She realised her potential and didn't ended up in the streets as expected by her grandfather. A hopeless man too. Elizabeth's parents are both drug addicts and are in no condition to raise their children properly. They can't even take care of themselves.

You must watch this movie rather than watching those horror movies which gives no benefit but scare the whole lot of yourself and children.

Not Happy New Year Yet

It's already a month since year 2010 but everything seemed to be in the year 2009 for me. Oh....I am quite tensed because everything's not settled yet. Two years ago were better years for me. Everything settled as scheduled at work. There must be something wrong anywhere.

Sometimes as the worker ant I know I must work as one. Do all the jobs and tasks but it's very difficult to concentrate on my work right now. Two years ago, I managed to finish my jobs and secretarial work on time. Maybe I need to be lest too friendly and talk lest. Because in the end, I am still the one hooked up on it. After all, this is my only income. I hope I can do better this year for my own satisfaction.

Mandarin Orange

This month, mandarin orange will be really famous because of the coming Chinese New Year. Today a chinese colleague bought us a box of orange. We are really happy.

I helped open the box and find that there are some rotten oranges. I took out those. The outside label of the box says its honey mandarin orange but I found the one I took are more sour than sweet.

I don't blame the seller because how was he to know and I really appreciate the oranges. My friend with all her heart bought the oranges and actually chose the one labelled honey. Thanks. I got a boost of vitamin C today. Yes! Vitamin C always comes in the form of sour liquid. Don't laugh at me.

Happy Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year is just around the clock and my chinese colleagues had started applying for leaves. Fortunately, my office is now in an equal blend of races, so no problem for them to get a week leave.

As for me, I'll be expecting my chinese neighbours having a full house in their homes with relatives and siblings gathering together. I will be waiting for the tiger dance around the neighbourhood. Everyone not only chineses will be out of their home to view the tiger dance, home from home. Exciting sight to see everyone getting so interested. My neighbourhood is multi - racial. Been living here for 6 yaers already. No problem.

To all celebrating this Chinese New Year, enjoy yourself. Happy Chinese New Year.

Laptop is for games

My daughter is no longer my small baby. Usually when I need to blog, I would say mummy need to do some study. Otherwise, there she is in front of the laptop saying she needs to play her favourite game first - tortoise.

Yesterday, I gave the same reason and she gave me a look. Mummy, if you open the computer, you wouldn't study. Just say you're playing. Ooops! She understands something already. Now, I blog only when she's asleep. If not, we will be fighting over the laptop.

Body Ache And Weight Gain

Today my body aches all over. I have been travelling here and there these past few weeks to settle some papers with the district office. Though how exausting the travelling was, I still manage to gain weight. In Malaysia, wherever I travel, my other main mission is to try the other countries famous delicacies.

The variety of foods here can never vanish from my mind. During the food tasting, sometimes I find it really tasty but somehow, I also experience the uncooked spice or not properly prepared ones. Food preparation comes from the heart. You can't cook delicious food with a bad mood.

My body aches after the 10 hours travelling to and fro. I ask my hubby for a massage but he's more tired than I am since he's the driver. At last I gave up and swallow the pain killer ( ponstan ). I pass the night till morning.

Kajang Satay

Have you eaten satay before? Well, Kajang , Selangor of malaysia is very famous with it's satay especially from the satay restaurant, ' Satay Kajang '. There are many outlets around Selangor and Kuala Lumpur nowadays. During the old times maybe 10 or more years ago, you might need to travel to Kajang to savour it. I am one of those people who did the travelling just to give it a try.

A good satay must have all the flavours immersed thoroughly within the chicken or beef flesh. Now they have many other like camel, rabbit , goat and etc. They barbeque it and wet it with lemon grass soaked in oil and whatever the secret recipe. When eaten, the meat should be tender and watery and the smell is just so inviting. Have it with the peanut gravy or sauce specially prepared.

They would also serve the satay with cuts of cucumbers and onion. Writing about it makes my mouth watery. I love satay. Before you go to any satay restaurant make sure you're really empty in the stomach and please, no sweets especially with mint flavour. All these will lessen your taste bud.

I am writing my very own experience and trust me, it's really tasty when served just out of the barbeque. I don't recommend cold ones, okay. Happy eating.

I saved myself from Trojan

Phew!!!! I saved my blog from Trojan just now. Thanks to blogger help I actually found the solution. I deleted all the gadgets and manage to save my blog. From now onwards I wouldn't want to give too much decorations to my blog. Wouldn't want to harm anyone who viewed my blog. Even dangerous to myself. I might lost my laptop which I didn't buy by saying oh, tomorrow I want to buy myself a laptop. no, it took me few years to experience this technology.

Actually everything worthy I owned are targetted for a few years before I actually own one like my car and home. There are somethings I need to sacrifice like my hobby which is travelling and entertainment. By that, then I can save some money for the deposit. But, it's all worth it. It became so precious, you know.

dissappointed

Oh, I am quite dissappointed today. Actually I am not very good in computer terms and in reading ' terms and conditions apply ' . Here I am today out of innocence have missed the chance to add some income to my account. Maybe I am not born to become a ' bit ' wealthy. Actually I never dreamt of wealth but am just trying to feel the breeze of it. But even a breeze is not destinied to me. Oh, well, I'll just type in my life experiences out of my keen into writing. Maybe one day I may gain something extraordinary but not now. I will just go to work as usual. Actually, my monthly income is already enough for a simple me. But I've tried writing just to see if I can earn something out of it. Not my luck. I should have read all the terms and conditions but, I just can't understand it through reading alone.. It's like learning without a teacher. I got lost. Couldn't understand the terms of law. I'm not a lawyer. Maybe not brilliant enough.

Here I am , at six o'clock in the morning, still thinking about you.............and I know that in time...........

Blood Donation

Have you donated blood? It is a very priceless act but someone else out there gets the benefit. All you can expect is to loose your blood and a little bit of refreshments.
That's why it's called a donation.

I have seen those who donated more than 50 times. They are just the same like us but they have something extra in their heart. They are different because they care in such away and you can see in their eyes how sincere they are. There is a 55 year old teacher I knew who donated as much but he's so down to earth.

Half boiled egg

My daughter love having 2 half boiled egg for breakfast. The way she have it makes me swallow my saliva. Looks just so tasty and yummy.

Usually I flavour it with soy sauce ( salty ketchup ) and a drizzle of white pepper. Simple breakfast for the start of the day.

Post Accident

The accident was still a tragedy I just couldn't let it pass just like that. We made a post mortem and a real discussion. All that really matters to me is my daughter. So please all of you out there. If you think you're sleepy never attempt to sacrifice anything. Just find a safe spot and give yourself time to relax or just take a nap. It wouldn't hurt anybody.

My car is yet to be ready. What does it matter? It is just a metal.

Accident

I was fast asleep. Suddenly I felt my car moving in such an awkward condition. We are on a highway and the route should be smooth and easy. I opened my eyes to see that the front side window was already smashed but still attached because it adhered to the tinting.
I shouted and it actually woke my hubby who was actually driving. Can you imagine falling asleep while driving? Fortunately, my daughter was busy playing by herself at the rear seat. It happened so fast, my hubby quickly gain control over the car before it could crash into a worst condition.
So, never drive if you're so sleepy, because you might create a hazard or get yourself into it.
