I didnt have any tuition.. Again.. Sobz..

It seems like Syafiq's mom is trying to delay payment.

*Sigh* Its always like that.

But its ok though coz i could wake up late and enjoy breakfast with family..

Mom said that Mak Andak fell down and broke her spine.. and Pak Andak came tumbling after..

Heh.. jk jk jk jk...

Mak Andak fell down and broke her right arm..

Poor her.. the whole arm is in cast.. It look so swollen.. *shake head*

I can imagine how difficult it's going to be for her to do all the everyday routine..

Sleeping, Bathing, Working?? *sheeshz*

Really hope she'll get well soon.. She's in sucha bad bad luck.. Poor Mak Andak.

Niways, my fam' and I went to see how's she's doin and stuffs..

And afters, Dad belanja the whole fam to eat Seafood at Woodlands Checkpoint Coffee Shop..

The Verdict!! So marvellous!! There's so much food, there's almost no space on the table..

Actually there isnt any.. We really had so much fun talking and cracking jokes..

Esp how Mat Arip terperanjatkan Ayah kat Lift landing..

Hah, buka silat ayah.. Poor Dad, he was really so so shocked..

But it was so funny, we laughed our way home.. Till all of us had stomach cramps..

It felt good. Really. Its been so long since i had a good laugh..

Although its at the expense of dad. heh.. sorry dad for being Mat's partner in crime..

It wasnt planned.. *swears* *evil grin*

I couldnt go to sleep.. so i surfed the net and did this quiz..

Power battles: who rules the roost in your relationship?
By Susan Quilliam

You've got the balance right. Well done. Yes, of course you two have power struggles - every balanced healthy couple does, because every balanced healthy couple is made up of two people who both have their own individual needs.

But you handle these power issues well, possibly because you've had good role models when you were growing up. Or possibly because you've learned the hard way that love thrives when you're not constantly trying to keep each other in line.

The bottom line is that you both respect each other enough not to throw your toys out of the cot when you don't get what you want. You also give each other a lot of freedom to follow your instincts and feel what you're feeling. You respect each other's differences and trust each other to do the best for the relationship. You talk things through, consult, and if it all goes pear-shaped, you know how to negotiate so that neither of you feels badly done by.

Watch out, though. You have a wonderful basis for your relationship, but be aware that the power balance between you may change as time passes. A shift in earning power, for example, can plunge the most democratic couple into problems. He gets made redundant, she stops work to have a family. All of a sudden, the rules change and the earning partner can feel that they should hold more power. That's the time to read Crunch Points for Couples by Julia Cole; (Sheldon Press, ?6.99).

My oh my..

I was so shagged at the end of everyday that ive not been updating myself of late.

So here goes.

SATURDAY
~~~~~~~~~

Saturday was so best!

We three sisters went to town to initially go shopping..

But somehow, we were so caught up in the chingay celebration that we ended up spending half of the time in orchard jostling with the crowd just to watch the chingay parade.

But it was cool.. So fun.. Somehow it reminded me of National Day Parade.

Everyone was like so into it.. waving hands and taking photos and screaming.

I cant help but to join in as well..

So much so that both my sistas got so fed up and forced me to continue shopping..

It was a great idea actually coz no one was inside any shopping malls. Pure heaven!!

All was outside wacthing Chingay. We felt like we're somekind of celebrities given extra attention by the sales person.

Oh yes it was fun.. We really ejoyed ourselves to the max and not forgeting exhausted all our savings and energy.

But it was all worth it.. Totally!!

Being able to spend some time with just the three of us is pure bliss..

It is not all the time that we get to spend some time together.. so i really cherished the times..Very much..

Cant wait for the next retail therapy session..

It really helps to release watever is in the mind.

We bought so many things.. well actually not that many things lah considering the stuffs that we didnt manage to buy coz we're just so so deat beat. Next time lah..

I cant help but smile everytime i was reminded of the time we went to Far East and went into the "OnDogsAndFriends" shop.

The thing was that i saw this really cute CUTE t-shirt which i bought.. heh..

Its a long sleeve t-shirt of a girl sucking on a straw.. she looked so cute i cant resist the temptation to try the shirt on..

But i was kinda afraid that i couldnt fit in.. So to cut the story short..

There's this what i would call a person with an identity crisis.. heuheue..

He or should i call she.. mmm.. he/she told me to try it on and said" baju ni kalau ketat sikit takpe.. mmg its like that. kalau mat salleh boleh pakai, kau jgn nak ckp ngan aku kau tak bleh pakai."

i was like.. errr okey.. i try.. heh.. and it fit me.. heh.. so i bought it.

Then when he/she asked me if i wanna try other shirts, i was like..

"take lah ab-bang.. eh..er.. cik.. ehh..er..nevermind la its ok.."

Serba salah sehh nak panggil dia apa..

So to sum up the whole day.. It was to me a time well spent.. a great day with one of my two most beloved people in my life..

And here are the pictures we took during our PRETTY BABES DATE OUT DAY.. hueheuhu.. ENJOY!!

P/s: See the photos from bottom to up.. I attached the last photo first.. So blur of me.. :):)

The very Very tired faces of US.. Nana was nowhere to be found.. Time to sleep.. hehueheu..

So here are the stuffs that we've bought.. Two t-shirt, mascara, compact powder, watch, a purse and Farihah's pressie. I hope she'll like it.. :)

My Most favourite shop at TANGS is The Island Shop..

And no.. we never forget to take photo in the ladies as well.. heuhue..Then we went shopping again... NAna bought her shoes..

I wanna take the photo of Mulan but all i got was this.. It was the most beautiful outfit ever in the chingay parade..

This was the Malaysia's performance.. showing the Serawak's culture..

This puppet reminds me of LOTR.. kinda scary.. heuheuheu...

This was the aborigines from Afrika.. the outfit kinda rock!!

Those were the RJ C students.. hmm.. fairy??

Then we went to see the Chingay Parade..

Me with my fair share of the dinner..

After much shopping.. we went off fer dinner..What a Fantabulous spread.. heh heh

Nana and her berangan with the shades.. Caught on Camera..

This shoe is so CUTE that me and nana cant resist wearing them..the same shoe.. Left foot is mine.. Right foot is Nana's.. heh heh..

Now that they've got their ice cream.. never wait any longer those two.. isk isk..

Look at the smile on my face.. I lurvve ice cream..

My favourite ice cream.. waffles with pistachio nuts and cream..

While waiting for our ice creams .. we took more photos..

After a little shopping, we went to Gelare for some desserts.

Three babes on the escalator.

I looked like a ghost in this pix.. Walking towards Isetan i think..

FRIDAY
~~~~~~~

Friday was a very hectic day at work..

Aisah just told me that SH is to pass all his work responsibilites to me..

Now that includes Weaning of rats and mice, Breeding, Replacing Breeders, Supplying, Recording and with Recording comes the Monthly Report. *sheeshz*

Niways, Im kinda EXCITED about it coz it shows that Aisah wanna me to take charge of CARE 1.

Rumours has it that CARE 3 is opening up but before that.. CARE 1 is gonna have a new project that is: An extension block.

So Aisah will be very busy with CARE 3 and it seems that Aisah wanna TSH to be free of CARE 1 duties coz she wanna him to focus on the extension of CARE 1 building.. So that leaves me to take full charge of CARE 1. So exciting..

But with so much work responsibilities and being a new and fresh supervisor.. It wouldnt be appropriate if i didnt have the qualification cert.

Therefore, Aisah has registered me to take the ALAT course (UK). My exams are scheduled to be in DEC..

Dr Leslie is gonna be my moderator for this course and I have to study online. My first test is on March. Hee.. cant wait.. i'll have to go to NUS for the monthly meetings and tests.. heh.

If i did well.. I can take the LAT course together with the other officers in NUS.

On top of that, Dr Enoka has scheduled me for the "Practical"course in NUS in March..

Hee.. cant wait for that too.. I lurve experiments.. Disecting.. Hmmm.. My forte.. :) :)

It seems like they.. the Principal Lab, wanna me to take charge of the Scientific aspects of CARE 1 and 2 and Siva and TSH to take care of the maintanence/ overall functioning of the building..

Hee.. cant wait..

But then again.. i dread this month and next..

Coz i have to go for the Yearly Overall check-up for all Laboratory officers in NUS.. and that means blood taking.. and that means.. injections.. Arghhhh...

And if that's not enough, i'll have to take the Tetanus injection with Aisah in NUS as well..

Oh NOOOO!!

But i guess, with superiority and power comes sacrifices and pain..

Coz without pain, nothing is gain..

Benjamin invited me to his home for CNY..

He's sucha nice fellow.. never forgets me whenever there's a gathering..

But unfortunately.. I've got to work today.. so by the time i reach his home,

Only a few of my classmates were still around..

Benjamin's Mommy and Daddy wasnt there..

They went for a Cruise..

What a loving couple.. How i wish my husband and I would have such a loving married life..

Even though when we have kids.. Our love will never diminish..

Niway, Ben cooked lunch but sorry Ben.. i cant taste it.. Non-halal.. You should cater the food the next time round Benji.. HUHUEHUEHUE..

Oh well, doesnt really matters, coz there's just so much goodies Benji's parents prepared on the table..

We.. well.. actually only me lah.. was trying almost all the goodies.. that i couldnt hear Ben called my name.. Sorry Benji..

I feel so Sinful for eating so much sweets... Oh God..

Lee Hwa brought a Memoirs of a Geisha VCD and we all wathed it together..

Everyone was so lost.. they couldnt understand.. only Ben and Me do..

Of course.. We read the book didnt we Benji? We shared reading the book.. few years ago..

Someone who's willing to dry my hair after that..

Someone to caress my cheeks till i fall asleep..

Now who's that someone??
___________________________________________________________________

Fizah and Family went for a Syarahan last Saturday night at Masjid An Nur..Its about Youth and Family..

We were so motivated after hearing the talk that Dad decided to have a family get-together the following day..

So Fizah and family went to da beach on Sunday for a relaxing, de-stressing and rebonding session.

It felt so good to be able to be so close with my family. Talking and just cracking jokes with each other..

We laughed alot, we chatted alot and we're so nice to each other.. We really enjoyed ourselves..Esp dad.. Sucha dear yesterday..

He called me umpteen times checking on how we're doing at Changi since he is stucked at work. Poor Dad. But he joined us afters.. hee.. Dad's da best!!

We were there at da beach since morning till literally next morning!! that is this morning~!!

Dad sent me to work today.. and fetch me back.. So dear Dad.. thank you for all your support.. Be it emotionally or physically.. I love Ya Dad!!

What a perfect Sunday with Fam'. Im really satisfied..

I've made the right choice this time.. Oh Yes i have..

On our way to da beach in our beloved and beautiful Grandis..

It's relaxing time for Me.. Yeah..

We had so much fun although dad wasnt around..

___________________________________________________________________

What a breezy Wednesday evening...

I enjoyed the good 15mins slow walk back home after work from the MRT just now..

AHHHhhhhhHHH~~~~~~~

The breeze just made me feel so calm.. like as though time just stand still.. Swears!

Sometimes we've just got to take a minute off out time and smell the air. Really!!

I've realised that i've actually been very blessed with so many wonderful things that life can offer..

Of which most of the times.. Either i didnt realise or i took them for granted (while not realising it..) heh!

Thank you people for being in my life and thank you GOD for surrounding me with so many wonderful people..

I may not be the most luckiest woman on earth..

But i am more than contented..

And nothing else matters!!

___________________________________________________________________

Nowadays.. There's just so many people getting engaged and married..

And they're just my age.. so young..

Is it the norm for us to get engaged at 23??

Sayang went for his cousin's engagement yesterday..

She's our age.. Yeah..

I kinda felt envious.. kinda nervous.. kinda scared..

Its hard to explain.. so much mixed feelings kept arousing inside of me..

Even the Berita Minggu newspaper printed an article about weddings.. the mas kahwin.. and the market price for hantaran and sorts.. A whole big chunk of the whole news.. apparently..

It seems like the norm is $8000 - $10,000.

Wow... so much to swallow eh?

Talked to sayang about it.. and sayang asked me this..

" So you regret waiting for me?"

I was like .. sigh.. sigh.. sigh.. I was kinda hurt by that..

This morning, my friend called and said she's getting engaged at end of this month..

I was like.. ok..

She asked.. "when's your turn?"

I said.. "if im lucky.. 5 years down the road."

Pictured all those bride-to-bes in flowy lace-gown..

A crown on her head.. The Man by her side..

A big warm smile of happiness and contentment..

Finally being able to be with the love of her life..

Haiyah..

What's my future's gonna be like?

Sheeshz...

Sayang... I wanna you to take care of me forever...

Haiyah.. Fizah's starting her berangan already..

Sheeshz..

___________________________________________________________________

Im in such a good mood to blog today..

This is my third entry of the day... Hhuehueheu...

Just revamped my bedroom..

Thanks to the faulty stand-fan.. Its all broken into pieces..

Its so beyond redemption.. Brutal seh..

So mum and sista went to buy a new fan.. a wall-fan..

My dad did the fixing of the fan and voila.. my room's a mess..

So of course.. my siblings were asked (read forced) to spring-clean the room since im out watching the Movie-of-the-Year. Hehuehue..

Hey we also celebrate Chinese New Year okey..

Multi Racial what.. Of course have to spring clean..

And of course.. My hammies also wanna celebrate Chinese New Year.. huehue..

I spring-cleaned their cages..

Monki, Didi and Warmmer were so excited..

Its written all over their tails.. Heuheuheuehue...

Monki moved into Didi's home and Didi's into Monki..

Monki was so overjoyed, he immediately climbed all over the cage and did his all-time fav:

Monkey bars.. (that's why his name is monki = monkey) hueheuhue..

Didi on the other hand.. didnt like his new home.. AT ALL!! Sheeshz..

He's like *sniff*sniff* pause find one corner *sniff*sniff* pause *yawnz* pause *sleep*

Didi's so sad.. He's like so depressed.. Like as though crying at one corner..

He's so the manja.. always wanted the best among the three.. always wanted the most attention..

That's why he's named after Him.. hehuehue... coz he's so the manja just like Him..

Warmer, *sigh* i think even when the tsunami hits his cage, he wont even bother..

All he knows is to *bite*bite*bite*bite*bite* his cage.. and now its all rusty..

Warmer.. his name.. i got it for him coz his fur is a warm grey..

B-e-a-u-tiful, silky coat which i think he's very proud of..

Huehuehue.. He show-off his fur ok.. Always licking 'em clean.. Mai-siao-siao ah..

Hmmph.. These are my favourite favourtie lot which never fail to make me smile with their silly acts..

The ones who always keeps me company when he's not around..

The ones who comforts me when there's no one else who cares..

My beloved Monki, Didi and Warmmer..

Im gonna treat you to some nice bites ok? Kebabs??

But i think i need to change the bottles first.. Warmmer's biting the nozzles..

Warmmer.. Warmmer... *shake head*

First things to buy when i get my pay:
___________________________

1. Water bottles for Warmmer and Monki..
2. Kebabs wood bites for Monki, Didi and Warmmer..
3. Sand bath.. Those three rascals badly need the scrubs..
4. Food plate for Didi..
5. And if my budget allows.. Wanna expand the tunnels for Didi's home.. Poor Didi.. He's really feelin' all down already..

Sheeshz..

With all that expenses.. i think i will have to minus that Dorothy Perkins black top ive been eyeing for...

ALaaaaaaaMak....

Sheeshz...

___________________________________________________________________

I watched Memoirs of a Geisha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeahh!! Finally!!

I've read the book long time ago in my teenage years and im always visualizing how the whole thing really looks like...

Was so excited ever since late last year when i got to know its going to be made into a movie..

SO WOWWW!!! the kimonos so the very nice... very nice..

And the way they walked.. so the very demure.. very lady like.. Very!!

I know i know not like me.. Im trying ok.. sheeshz..

Ive always visualize how the Chairman would look like and how mameha-oneisan would look like..

Hee... i know they're not the same person in reality..

But just seeing all those characters came to life exactly like that from the book felt so so so GOOD!!

But i was so disappointed that the part where Sayuri's misuake (or was it misuage hmmph..??) which was given to Dr Crab was cut.. I mean the action where his eel went into her cave..

I remembered vividly..in the book.. the writer described explicitly what happened.

Dr crab sent his eels into the cave .. opps.. i mean eel.. huehue.. then there was blood on the white cloth.. Then after his eel's out.. He scrape something and kept the cloth..

That time when i read it.. terasa seh.. but the movie didnt show that.. It showed Dr Crab laying the white cloth on the mat and then he came on top of Sayuri and CUTTT!!

Haiyah.. so disappointing... and they didnt really show how Sayuri went through all the classes.. that should be the most funny part.

So the verdict:

Those who've read the novel "Memoirs of a Geisha" would appreciate it alot.. but to those who didnt.. would find the movie long and boring.. Its a 2 hours 30mins show..

Hmmph.. but it's all worth my money..

Thanks sayang for accompanying me to watch the show.. and to actually read the novel beforehand.. I know you hate reading novels...

You're the best la dear..

___________________________________________________________________

I have been sucha bad bad gerl to my family and Sayang..

Havent been spending enough quality time with them even though its always been my priority at the start of everyday..

I am so sorry..

I hope to make things better..

To be a much much more self reliable and independent..

And most importantly.. To upgrade myself..

i know.. i know.. ckp jer tapi tak buat..

Heyyyy..im trying ok..

Not one person is perfect in this world kan.. Its not an excuse..

Im really trying..

Give me time k?

Well... Yeah.. and to make my sayang even closer to my heart..

And to trust him.. more..

Oh god.. Im sucha imperfect lady.

If nobody's perfect.. And im a nobody.. Am i perfect??

_____________________________________________________________

What a sad sad day it is today..

What a sad sad day..

Im sad it turned out this way..

But who am i to direct the course of life on this unpredictable Earth?


Dont tell me what to do..

Dont tell me what to say..

Dont tell me nothing..

For bearing all these has made me lethargic..

For tolerating all these has made me aged..


Dont tell me what to do..

Dont tell me what to say..

Dont tell me nothing..

For all these while, its the same things that is heard..

For all is nothing but lies and deceit..

For the only glimspe of hope is gone..

For all that is done is in vain..

For nothing is all that is left..


Dont tell me what to do..

Dont tell me what to say..

Dont tell me nothing..

For i myself..

Cannot hear nothing..

Everything is but a whisper to my ears..

Slowly fading and fading..

And then is heard no more..
