..What the..

So officially, no public holiday for us tomorrow. Well, of course lah, month end, what do I expect kan...

But - it will be replaced to next Friday. Good new, right?

Wait till later.

Got an e-mail from Finance department that for those who were selected as auditors for stock-take are compulsory to work on next Friday. #*&@^#**. This is so00000000000000000 not acceptable *cry.

Coming to work on a public holiday for a stock-take. That's just great.

*&@***^@##*&!!!

..Congratulations Malaysia Team..

Yeay, Malaysia menang 4-2 :)

Hopefully budak-budak muda yang belum bergelumang dunia glamor ni will continue their great performance and keep improving in future. Chaiyok2.

First match saya tak tengok langsung - tertidur. Second match malam tadi pun first half je tengok lepas tu terus pengsan hehehe.

Perasan tak cameraman semalam asyik fokus perempuan-perempuan cantik? Haha.

Private sector cuti tak esok nih.................... Nak cuti jugak.............

..Dreaming The Dream..

Last night, I had a dream.

I was on a bridge, in some cliff-y place, getting ready to bungee-jump.


One of my 100-Things-To-Do-Before-I-Die is this. Yup, bungee-jumping.


But I didn't even do it - I just stood there and imagining what it feels like to jump.

See, even in dream I don't have guts to do it :(

..excited..

Posting from my new. Gadget. Tak pandai guna sangat lagi.

Sori buyan, nampaknya tak dapat lah join gang blackberry you :@

..Color of The Sky..

Terjumpa gambar lama ini masa tengah godek-godek isi laptop.


Cahaya yang sangat cantik kat langit.

This was taken in 2007, on the way balik from work, seingat saya somewhere around Kempas. Using ordinary compact digi-cam.

*2007 was the year my passion for photography grew stronger. I've developed the interest since I was in my final year in USM but at that time, I didn't even have a camera.

..Fatter But Lighter..

How is that possible?

Nowadays I always get the remark "Dah gemuk sket skang", especially from those who doesn't see me everyday.

But yesterday, RIGHT after eating, I pergi timbang berat. Terkejut sebab lepas dua kali timbang, my weight consistently showed as 41kg, which is 2kg less than my usual weight. After makan pulak tuh. And yet people told me I look chubbier?

Bingung rasa.

When En hubby pegang tangan saya dia pun kata "Macam kulit dan tulang saja". The truth is I did feel that I get skinnier these days but I don't know why. Rasanya makan macam biasa je.

Or is it the stress?

Entahla.

..Spontaneously Heart-Warming..

Situation : Tengah pikir nak dinner kat mana..

En Hubby : Baru ni kita ada makan tomyam yang sedap tu. Kat mana ek?
Me : *Kerah otak nak mengingat makan kat mana..
En Hubby : Dah ingat...Tomyam yang awak masaklah.....
Me : *Sengih sampai telinga.. hehehe.

..On Happiness..

"The more happiness we bring to others, the happier we ourselves become"

"Genuine happiness is found in courage. Courage is the gateway to happiness"

"A peaceful life does not mean a life free of toil and suffering, rather it means living without being swayed no matter what happens. This is a state of true peace and happiness"

..Top Load Vs Front Load..

When you rent a very very small house, you have to be extra-creative in decorating, especially in arranging stuff.

I have problem with my washing machine. There's no space to hide it. Rasa macam pelik sangat orang datang boleh nampak washing machine.

Since buying house is not in our short-term plan yet, then my idea is buy another washing machine which looks cool - at the same time it can function as a decoration tool. Haha - now I think that sounds crazy, right?

*Of course, the other main reason is because the current one dah mula buat hal dan bunyi.

So, to me washing machine that looks cool is the front load one. But of course, it's very pricey compared to the top load type. Still surveying and still comparing. Still indecisive.

But anyhow, here's several points of comparison between these both types after some researching so far. May be useful for those who are in dilemma like me.

Front load:

1. Energy efficiency - jimat air & elektrik
2. Gentle on clothing

Top Load:

1. Faster cycle than the front load washing machine.
2. Easy to load and empty

So which one?

..Jering Rebus Cicah Kelapa..

Tiba-tiba hari ni teringat kat makanan ni. Tak ingat bila last makan. Maybe when I was 12 years old kot.

Jering yang dimakan dengan kelapa yan diparut - but don't ask me how exactly it is cooked.

Seingat saya dulu Mak selalu beli tiap-tiap kali pergi pasar during weekend. Agaknya ada lagi tak sekarang ni?

..Finally, EVER AFTER..

I was dying to watch this movie since I was a teenager. Huhu, giler lame.

Finally get to watch it tonight, thanks to Star Movies :)

Hmm..Why am I in such a fairy tale mood nowadays....

..The Break-Up Part III..

They're breaking up, too? Why-lah?

..Rapunzel - A Tangled Tale..

I think of all fairy tales, this one is the least familiar to me. Before watching the movie, the little thing that I know about the tale is that there's a princess with super-long hair locked up in a tower and then is rescued by a 'prince'. I didn't recall ever read about this whole tale.

So, I went to watch the movie last Saturday with sister-in-laws. They actually want to watch the Narnia, but I, as always, couldn't bring myself to want to watch that kind of movie. So I have to make the girls to want to watch the Rapunzel. Haha. Siapa yang budak-budak ni :P

And fortunately, Narnia is rated as PG13 and my SIL is only 12. Hahahaha, I won *gelak kejam.

The movie was so hillarious. Part kelakar memang sakit perut gelak, part sedih memang rasa nak nangis and part romantik memang sangat-sangat sweet. Langsung tak rugi pergi tengok and I wouldn't mind watching it all over again. And Mandy Moore is just the perfect voice for Rapunzel.

And the hero in this movie is not a prince - he's a thief, instead. But a very handsome one, of course :P

..Becoming Next Maya Karin...

But not as in becoming as beautiful as her, of course. For that, I won't have any tips :P

What I mean is becoming an environmental person like her.


One of our tiny way to help save our environment - RECYCLE!!

Not difficult for me because there's one Uncle in our neighborhood (just opposite my house) who buys the stuffs and later sell them back to the recycle central. So I can spare out the hassle of loading these into car to bring them to recycle central.


Let's recycle plastic, paper and aluminium products.

..The Always-Awaited-Friday..

It's Friday at last!!

I am now quite tired with current routine - kinda drive me nuts but I must not complain.

As one of the theraphy, I'm thinking of watching Rapunzel tomorrow :P

Happy working towards the weekend, everyone :)

..The Break-Up Part II..

Heard on the radio this morning about this:

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens already broke up!!!

Hahaha, apa motif entri ini pun tak tau - dah macam wartawan hiburan la pulak :P

..The Drama Queens..

Have you ever met / known someone who is so unbelievable that makes you think "Rupanya ada orang macam ni kat dunia ni. Ingatkan dalam drama je".

..New Header..

Macam tadika :P

..How's It Gonna Be..

Right now for me, there's nothing current which is interesting to listen to on the radio. So I found this song while searching for something my ears would want to hear.

Kalau tak silap ni lagu zaman high school dulu.

I'm only pretty sure that
I can't take anymore
Before you take a swing
I wonder, what are we fighting for

When I say out loud
I want to get out of this
I wonder, is there anything I'm gonna miss

I wonder
How's it gonna be
When you don't know me
How's it gonna be
When you're sure I'm not there
How's it gonna be
When there's no one there to talk to you
Between you and me
'Cause I don't care
How's it gonna be
How's it gonna be

Where we used to laugh
There's a shouting match
Sharp as a thumbnail scratch
A silence I can't ignore
Like the hammock by the doorway we spent time in
Swings empty
I don't see lightning like last fall
When it was always about to hit me

I wonder
How's it gonna be
When it goes down
How's it gonna be
When you're not around
How's it gonna be
When you found out there was nothing
Between you and me
'Cause I don't care
How's it gonna be

How's it gonna be
When you don't know me any more
And how's it gonna be

Want to get myself back in again
The soft dive of oblivion
I want to taste the salt of your skin
The soft dive of oblivion, oblivion

How's it gonna be
When you don't know me any more
How's it gonna be
How's it gonna be
How's it gonna be

..Nasi Lemak..

Nasi lemak yang sedap kat Kemaman - introduced by Mak Abah. Sambalnya memang kena dengan selera, tak pedas dan ada rasa manis-manis.

Jadi sekarang, bila balik kampung, mesti nak kena cari ini, dah bertambahlah list 'must-have-food'.


Yang pinggan hijau tu double, En Hubby punya.

Lokasinya - gerai no 3 dari kiri, kat Padang Astaka Kemaman.

..The Best Murtabak in the World..

..well, at least to me.

I introduced this murtabak to En Hubby, and he had become addicted to it since then.

Kuah dia - of course Terengganu style, kuah bawang.

Normally every time we go back to Kemaman, my parents surely will buy the murtabak, without us having to request :)

Kedai makan dia buruk je, tepi jalan. Kalau on the way dari Kuantan ke Kuala Terengganu, dia kat belah kanan. Just opposite the Kak Zah Nasi Air warung, area Kampung Besut.

Nama warung ni - Warung Sri Baiduri. Actually saya pun baru tau nama dia ni sebab biasanya cuma panggil 'kedai murtabak yang sedap' , hehehe. Selain murtabak, warung ni ada roti canai, nasi minyak dan masakan panas.

I'm not sure what makes it so addicting - maybe sebab dia tak kedekut daging, memang banyak and memang rasa daging dia unlike some place which murtabak dagingnya rasa telur and bawang, instead of beef.

These are the other choices of murtabak (and roti canai):

Please try if you ever come to Kemaman :)

..Salam Maal Hijrah..

Cepatnya masa berlalu...

Pejam celik, here we are - in another new year.

I dont have any new year resolution since some of my last year's resolution still haven't accomplished yet.

Let's work harder this year :)

..I'm Back..

Rindu nyer kat blog...

Rasa macam dah lama je tak update. Don't really feel like blogging these past few days but I'm back now :)

Quick update:
1. Went back to Terengganu on 2nd until 5th Dec - sambut Mak Abah balik dari Mekah
2. My niece, Aisya got cheekier and naughtier..dah pandai buli and gaduh ngan T-Long dia... adoiyai :P
3. Saya sudah agak berani dukung Lil' Soffea who is just 30++ days young :)
4. Family vacation plan on next year already confirmed :)

..Another Wisdom Words for the Weary Soul..

Copied from Ustaz Zaharudin:

"Prolonged association with NEGATIVE PEOPLE makes us think negatively; close contact with PETTY individuals develops petty habits in us. Conversely, companionship with people with BIG IDEAS raises the level of our thinking; close contact with AMBITIOUS people gives us ambition"

Sadly, I'm kinda 'stuck' with negative and petty ones. Which makes me mostly mad all the times. I am tired of people bad-mouthing other people, tired of their non-stop complaints... But I guess, it's in their blood already...

And me, I am really in need of the positive aura right now *deep sigh.

Something to keep me positive for at least today:

"Give thanks for what you are now, and keep fighting for what you want to be tomorrow"

and

"Never allow the world to change you. Instead change the world around you!"
