Rain inside the office

I visited Mixed Cultures Mama's Blog just now and read her 'scary' post. Something scaring also happen in JB last Monday. It was a sunny day early morning and suddenly came heavy rain with thunderstorm. When we arrived home in the afternoon, the big tree nearby our taman perumahan tumbang and one block got its roof terbang. Angin terlalu kuat kan, tu la bumbung block tu terbuka. Eii..bikin takut o. Dekat blok kami pun ada juga sikit2. Pecah dan terbuka.

However, we don't really care about what happening outside because what was happening inside our office was more interesting! The office ceiling is leak! (mcm salah grammar ja o kan) .The affected areas have to move thier work desk and cover their computer with plastic..adoii..kesian pla sa tengok..teda duit kerajaan ka ini mo repair..berbaldi baldi lg mau tadah tu air..lantai dilapis dengan newspapers. Luckily my work desk is not affected. So next when its raining, teda la sa hairan lg why baldi dah standby awal2 dekat ofis.

Toilet

Malunye saya..i went to the wrong toilet! This post is written right after the incident.Because i was too lazy to walk up to the toilet at the Administration Dept which is just 2 minutes walk frm my ofis, i went to the toilet nearby, which is actually toilet for my dept. From what i know, there are only 2 toilet for Hospitaliti dept. Before went inside, i've looked for the Male and Female sign as toilet usually have but there was no sign on the door or even on the wall. The first toilet do have the 'mangkuk tandas for lelaki' and can be seen fom outside. So, i confirmed that is for Male. The second one don't have. I confidentlly went inside because i'm sure that one is for female staff. I do what i need to do and opened door mau keluar. To my surprise, a male senior lecturer was washing his hands at the sink! Adoiii..i calmly and steadily asked..(Sabahan punya stail juga tau cara sa tanya). 'Alalala..'ncik, ini tandas lelaki ka? (sambil sia tersengih2 menahan malu, sdh nampak lelaki masih tanya lagi. Stupido tul sa rasa). He answered me: 'Ye, awak dah salah masuk tandas'..'Nasib sa tak tolak pintu tadi,' he added. Sambil tersenyum (kurang asam!)..So, i explained la kat dia (sempat lg explained a, bkn trus keluar) mcm mana sa ble tersesat kat situ...After that he showed me the toilet for female which is located just at the back of the male's toilet.

Adoihh..ni gara2 teda sign and sa tak tanya punya pasal la ni sia sesat. hampehh betul!

Gambar Bogel ADUN Bukit Lanjan

Kesian o kan..dia. Datuk kElizabeth Wong keat Ping. Ketua Penerangan PKR, Bt Lanjan, PJ. Tak pasal2 gambar dia separuh bogel etika tidur d rumahnya disebarkan d internet..(go to Berita Harian Online). Apa la nak jadi dengan politik di Malaysia ni. Nak jatuhkan orang lain sampai ke tahap mencemarkan nama dan maruah seseorang pemimpin politik. Orang tengah yang hanya mementingkan duit semata-mata, digunakan untuk melakukan perbuatan keji tersebut.

My point here, kejadian2 seperti ini boleh berlaku kepada sesiapa sahaja. Orang biasa seperti kita juga mungkin akan terkena. Seram sa mengingatkan hal2 begitu. Terutamanya bila kita di tempat orang. Palis2.

Budak Sabah

For all Sabahans who have been staying in Peninsular Malaysia for long time, this considered as nickname to Sabahan , "Budak Sabah" may not longer strange in your ears. But for me, i can't accept it. I gave the administration department of Poli JB a negative impression as they called me "Budak Sabah" on my very first day here. I really really can't accept it. Its sounds humiliating the Sabahans. Every time when i heard them talking to each other, they will say 'oh, budak sabah tu ye?'..whats their point actually? Mcm budak kampung betul ka orang Sabah samapai dorang refer kami mcm tu. Another strange thing that they ask when meeting Sabahan is "Agama apa?' If i am a Christian, so what? Is it really a matter for them to know about our religion..Haizz..so weird..and i don't like the weirdness of their attitude. If i have a chance, i'll ask them why the call Sabahan 'budak sabah'. I really want to know. But for now, i'll keep it in my heart first.

A busy Monday.

Its raining heavily right now here. Just finish my class of Restaurant Operation. Imagine from 8am till 4pm. But this class is amali, so cannot really feel it. Me assisting the senior lecturer observing and briefing the students about what to do in in the dining area and kitchen. Students are doing all the tasks from preparing and serving the food, and clearing the kitchen and dining area. Siok juga la..Dapat makan free. hihi..The restaurant open for the invited guests (the lecturers) at about 12pm till 2pm. The menu today is combination of the Western food and Malay food, Theme is 'Kasih Sayang' in conjunction with the Valentine's Day last Saturday. But i can't feel the 'Kasih Sayang' in the restaurant environment..hmm.nama juga pelajar kan, jadi tak kisah sangat la. At least they are practising all theories they've learnt in Sem 1 and 2. They are just lacking in effort and determination to do more than what the lecturers are expecting...sighed..well, students are always like that kan..Cabaran untuk warga pendidik la juga ni.

In the schedule actually i have class at 2.15pm - 3.15pm. Right after the Rest Operation. But i'll only start teaching after the mid sem break. A bit difference with the the previous college i was attached because here lecturers are sharing teaching the subject. Sharing means, teaching the same class. In particular, the first lecturer teach the subject before the mid sem break. Second lecturer teach after the break. Lebih kurang begitu la. Other things are same such as rancangan mengajar, test, quizzes..etc.

I think i really need a good rest tonight..sangat penat. O ya..To Nc, sia ada gambar meow meow yang sentiasa ada di cafe kolej. Setiap kali kami p sana, mesti ada. Nah ni gambar durang.:

cumil kan durang. duduk pun dekat2..

Weekend in JB

Backpost.

It’s Sunday. My first Sunday in JB. We went to a place named Plentong for a Sunday prayer. Since i’m new (compared to my 3 Sabahan’s friends who have been here for almost a month) here, I’ve still no idea where else I can go for Sunday prayer. So, I just follow them to the Catholic Church in Plentong, St. Joseph Church. To my surprise, when we went inside the church, there were many faces with Sabahan’s look. Suddenly I felt like at home. Yes, many of them were Sabahans. Siap nyanyi satu lagu gospel bahasa Dusun lagi.

My days here are not complete without tears. (too bad, even I pray harder, I’m still emotionally weak!) And inside the church, there I go again! It was because there were a family with a baby girl sitting right in front of the row where me and friends sitting. Suddenly, my tears dropped when the baby girl look at me and smile! Oh, don’t do that to me cutie! She made me crying! I can’t explain how I miss my little prince. My plan to balik Sabah is still far ahead. I thought a new staff is automatically entitled for the 25 days annual leave but its not. It is calculated after the month ended (2 days leave every month). Just like the system used by the previous company I was attached. So, I’ve to forget my plan to balik kampong early month of March. Only been here for about three weeks but thinking to go home already? Believe me, if u’re in my shoes you’ll do the same especially when you are apart from your little baby and hubby!

Three of my friends are going back to Sabah on this 6^th March because 9^th March is holiday. Me can not join. So, my planning is to go to Batu Berendam Melaka, at my brothers’ place. But plans will change when the time comes.

Life without my beloved Baby Yong2 and hubby is soooo gloomy especially when the night comes, I’m alone in my bed. Tears are never hesitate to drop and pretty enough to make my pillow get wet. Nevertheless, if you meet and stay with friends that are very caring and loving, the feeling will a little bit lessen. I’ve really learnt that CARING and SHARING are the two words that powerful enough to relieve a gloomy heart. Sometimes, we cried together but we choose to laugh a lot and make our days occupied. So, the mind is not too busy thinking about family back home. Another way that we do to be occupied is watching movies all day long if we don’t go to anywhere. Last night we watched Beverly Hills Chihuahua. In the list next weekend are BIGSTAN movie. Playing games is not exempted too. I responsible to make my two friends stay awake till 1am just to try to finish the Stage 7, TUMBLEBUGS game. Hahahahaa!!!

Hmm..tomorrow is Monday. I’ll be one of the lecturers to observe students preparing food in the kitchen and after that presenting the food at the Baiduri Restaurant…hehhe..makan free lagi bisuk! Hotel standard lagi tu. Siap dengan waiters and waitress (students themselves). Jom kawan2, join sa makan free!..kekekee..

Alright, I guess its time to give my body and soul a good rest. I wanna go to sleep now. Hopefully my night will be a peaceful one. (NO TEARS PLEASEE!!!)

p/s: Nc, nanti sia buat tag ko.

Rose Cottage

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

So happy today i got online . Where? hihii..If u are away from ur hometown, internet is the fastest way to stay connect to ur loved ones and family and friends. So, today me and friends heading to Rose Cottage, just about 20 minutesfrm the house that we rent to use this inn free WIFI. Check in? not necessarily. We just park our car outside the cottage and there we enjoy the free WIFI! hehehhe..but limited to the life of battery that i think only could last for 45 minutes. But at least, i've done the things that i want to do. And i better shorten my entry before my laptop 'tidur'..

Waiting for next monday for free WIFI again!

Jalan Jalan

Horaaay..tomorrow is weekend! This is my first weekend here. Well, of course it will be different with the weekend that i used to have in Sabah (w/out baby and hubby)..sighed..

We are planning to go Jalan-jalan in JB Town tomorrow. So, not sure what will we do and see.

i'll update again next week.

Till then, Happy weekend all!

Greetings from Poli JB

Hi nc, pam,val, gracie, nadia,tan, sal and Cat.

I'm doing 50/50 fine here..how is that? Hehee..sure u all know what happen to me now. HOMESICK! HOMESICK! HOMESICK! and this is only my second day here.. TOOOOOOOO many stories to tell but i think i just don't know where to start. Last night, i couldn't sleep. I kept thinking of my baby. I cried almost an hour till my nose blocked. Even at office when sharing with the other lecturers who are in the same boat with me, we dropped tears. Lucky me because i have friends that caring and very helpful here. Cuma sedikit berbeza dengan orang Sabah la. But still gratefull.

On my arrival yesterday, my two Sabahans friend welcome me. Suddenly i felt at home juga la coz ada orang Sabah yang sambut sa dekat gate kolej. After that melapor diri di admin office and then ke office Jabatan Hospitaliti. And there, i met with other Sabahans. Grateful again. Nothing much i did yesterday. Chit Chat and meeting new colleagues till 5pm.

And today, we had an early morning briefing by the Dept Head. I was surprised because i was being asked to introduced myself in front of 38 staff in the dept..hehehe..nasib sa dapat maintain ayu..kakakkaaa..padahal kawan2 lain yg baru nda pun kena begitu. Special case kunu sa cos saturang sa sampai paling last..

Now, i'm still waiting for my teaching schedule. I requested for tourism subjects since my teaching xperience is in this field but they give me hotel subject as well. So, here i will teach both hotel and tourism subjects.

Since i'm still free, my dept head assigned me a special task already that is to be his assistant..adoi..tiba2 ja..so i'll help him to do some academic job like doing summary for certain modul for student used..ewah, ewah..mcm sa mo buat thesis pla ni. And at 3.30 today, i'll be his secretary for a short meeting with a senior lecturer. Something new for me but i'll take the challenge! Still, wanna thanks ACIC because provided me the opportunity to gain experience in the education field.

For now, only this that i can share. I'll write again when time allows. O ya, i'm using my friend's laptop to go online because my internet connection is having some problem. I miss Mr. Azfar because the IT staff here can't solve my problem...sighed... AZFAR, TOLONG SIAA!!!!! (Nc, ko gtau Azfar a..heheheh).

P/S: takut2 mo online selalu, nanti kena cakap pla staff baru online ja.

What happen when women conquer the world?

Hehehee..this is so nice to share with friends. An email forwarded by a friend of mine.

Should we women do this at office? Nah, gentleman..dun forget to put down the toilet seat after used ya..(*-^)

Exactly a woman taste..smart la pula!

Phewwit!! Strictly for blue and red cars please..

Thinking of not only 2 in 1 makeup set? Maybe Douglas Engelbert should think to invent a new mouse version..

Hahahahahaa...i want a car that having this la..

Can u find 'ANY'?

Boleh jadi pelamin sudah ni..

Hope it will makes your day today ladies!

Back to work again..

Aduhh..so lazy today. Since there is no lecture today, i've been sitting on my cosy chair, surfing internet, blogging, facebook-ing and friendster-ing and made my chair warm all day long! I'm pretty sure all the germs that living in my chair pengsan mati sudah kena panas..hihiii..

And its 3.30pm already and i still didn't touch any office work. Huahuahua..! Today, i've decided to be a real unproductive worker! Azam ni tau..mo makan gaji buta hr ni..kuangkuang..

BTW, what you guys did during the 4 days off-work?

Me? Of course went back to my favorite destination ever: Kg. Lokoton, Kudat. My very peaceful village. So happy to be there at every chance i have. But this time, only me and my lil Yong Yong @ Daniel, my 9 months son. Sad, because hubby can't join. Have to be very patient if you married a hotel's staff. I mean, very small chance to get leave during Public Holiday (PH) because usually that's the time hotel is full house or high occupancy. Yeah, full house means, full complaints as well. That's why its not easy to get ur leave application approved..

Going back to kampung is always my first choice if given a choice where to go during PH. And having a strong reason nowadays because my lil Yong Yong needs to be familiarized with his grandmas and grandpas, nieces and nephews at Kampung. I don't want him to be familiar with only relatives from my hubby's sides..thanks God, he is learning.

Below are some pictures of him, enjoying his ride on his auntie's shoulder. Picture taken on Sunday afternoon while we were on the way home from church. We supposed to wait for my older brother to send us home by car, but we chose to walk, and again this is Yong Yong familiarisation to the kampung environment..hihi..

Mau posing juga untuk kamera

Sambil lompat2 mcm tu orang naik kuda

Above and below: Showing off his 'gigi tikus'

Yong2 with his aunt Nani and aunt Oying..

The time has comes to say goodbye

Finally, today has comes, my last working day in ACIC. Different kind of feeling suddenly comes over to my mind.

* Sad - leaving all my great friends here, sure i will miss the moments that we had shared through the years that has passed. Besides, i'll miss the internet freedom i've had here and the way we reacted when the line suddenly no internet connection. Will the people in my new office will react the same? Maybe no more this words: "Anu, panjat!" to refresh the internet line!

excited - i'll be in a new environment by next week or the week after. Not sure what kind of people attitude that i will confront. But SABAH BOLEH ba..be it monster, snake, firefly, fly @lalat, cicak, buaya..semua boleh masuk punya..environmental friendly ba ini..hahhaa..-lesson learned!


So, my dear blog and all my dear blogger's friends, my home will be in 'sleep mode' till everything is settle overthere in JB. I will miss u!

Horeeeyyy..

Its Friday again. Tomorrow is weekend plus 2 days CNY holidays. Horeeeeyyyy...nda sabar mo cuti!

To all Chinese friends : Wishing everyone Happy CNY

and to all of us yang menumpang cuti - Happy Holiday.

Have u ever..

This is a belated entry. It supposed to be posted yesterday (right after the incident).

Its about an incident happened to me after my lecture yesterday's afternoon. After reading you decide in what categories this incident should be. I'm not sure how to start but i think this will work:

Conversation between me and a student.

Me: AKMAL (student)!!!! (dengan nada menjerit terkejut sebab terdengar bunyi sesuatu terkoyak).

Student: Kenapa Miss, kenapa Miss? Sampai dia ulang dua kali sebab terkejut tiba2 sa jerit nama dia.

Me: Koyak!! Dengan muka ntah tak tau camana nak cakap.

Student: Apa yang koyak Miss? Muka hairan tapi tersengih.

Me: Seluar! Sambil tangan meraba bahagian bawah 'buntuts' dan terasa tangan menyentuh kulit sendiri juga. Adoii..apa la..seluar sa terkoyak pasal tersangkut dekat bahagian tajam dihujung whiteboard dalam kelas tu.

Student: Haa..macamana boleh koyak Miss? Nda pa Miss, sa sporting juga. Rileks Miss, rileks. Sa cover Miss dari belakang. Wahh, concern ni budak ni. Dia nampak panik juga bila tengok sa nda bergerak dari kedudukan sa sejak tadi.

Me: Adoii..gila ni. Spontaneously, i took off my blazer and wear it on my waist (ala mcm kalau kita tak mo pakai tu sweater kita ikat di pinggang kan). Automatically the 'hole' yang koyak covered la.

Student: Macam mana Miss? Okey? Sambil dia tengok sa dengan muka bersimpati..

Me: Okey sudah ni. Boleh jalan sudah balik ofis. Dengan muka maintain dan pura2 rileks sa angkat laptop dan kertas nota, berjalan secepat mungkin balik ofis diikuti oleh tu student di belakang. On the way to the office beberapa students yang memang selalu ada di koridor kolej tegur tapi sia nda berapa peduli. Mau cepat2 sampai office.

Adedeh..what an incident la happen to me yesterday. So miserable la me. Luckily during the unlucky incident, only one student left to help me packing the LCD projector that i used for lecturing. Back to the office, i told my collegues about it and they also LOL listening to my story. They even took a look at the 'koyak part' of my pants...hahahahaa..

Then, i called my hubby to fetch me up. Nda kan sa mo naik bas dengan seluar koyak..Nasib dia la dia free. Tapi sempat juga kasi ketawa sia pasal incident tu. heiyaa..

So to friends outhere, especially si Cikgu Nadia , hehehhe, hati2 ye bila masuk kelas, perhatikan betul2 sudut2 tajam ka, paku ka. Mana tau silap haribulan macam sa, tersangkut seluar dan koyak..malu ehh..nasib tu student sa kan yang bagus punya...

Condolence

Around 2pm today, we (i and officemates) got to know one of our ex-student passed away two weeks ago..(May his soul rest in peace).

Terkejut juga dengan berita yang baru diterima. Tetapi akur dengan hukum alam, semua yang hidup akan kembali kepada-Nya.

Namun, apa yang membuat saya sedih, pelajar berkenaan pernah menjadi pelajar saya. Ketika dia masih belajar, kerap juga saya dan beberapa lecturer lain mengikuti perkembangan kesihatannya yang semakin memburuk. Kami juga sebenarnya tidak jelas apa penyakit yang dihidapinya. Namun, selepas seketika kami terlupa untuk terus mengikuti perkembangannya dan hanya mendengar berita bahawa dia sudah tiada. Ayahnya datang ke kolej sebentar tadi membawa sijil mati anaknya dan mungkin datang dengan tujuan menguruskan pinjaman PTPTN.

Walaupun ahli keluarganya mungkin tidak akan terbaca catatan ini, saya tetap mengucapkan TAKZIAH buat mereka sekeluarga. Semoga mereka tabah menghadapai apa yang telah berlaku.

Berita ini membuat saya selalu sedar bahawa nyawa kita bila-bila sahaja akan dicabut dari badan oleh-Nya. Tidak kisah la kita menghidap penyakit teruk atau tidak, atau kita sekarang kita sihat-bugar kalau sudah tiba masa, kita akan meninggalkan dunia ini.

JADI..

Untuk diri sendiri dan semua kawan2, sementara masih hidup dengan riang gembira ni, jom la kita berbuat baik banyak2, sembahyang banyak (walaupun kadang2 ter-miss..hehhe), kurangkan kontroversi tingkatkan prestasi! (Pinjam Melodi punya cogankata...hihi).

Dengan itu,..adioss!! Biiiiisuk kita jumpa lagi!

My Decision with conscious mind

(NOTE: This entry should have been posted last Wednesday but only now i post it due to internet disconnection on that day.)

14th January 2009, Wednesday

Huh..finally this is my decision. I ACCEPTED the offer. It is a very though decision to make but i finally decided to accept it.

AND...

Tomorrow, i'll have a real 1 DAY RETURN TRIP to KL. Alone. Yeahoo..i'm gonna rock and roll tomorrow!

Just imagine, my flight is on early morning 7.15am 2mrw..flight back to sabah is at 5.15pm. I've to make my journey as fast as possible to Putrajaya and settle everything there before 3pm. Oh GOD, i hope 2morrow gonna be fine!

I never thought that early year of 2009, i'll have this kind of life. Something new for me and there are more unexpected happenings in the days ahead, for sure.

I also requested that my working date (supposed to be 2morrow) being postponed for 1 month period as i need time to find house in Pasir Gudang and it must be the nearest to the college. So hard because, the college's staff quarters are already full. So, yeah..lets see what happen 2mrw first..

GOOD LUCK to ME! (for tomorrow).

16th January 2009, Friday

Yesterday went smoother than i expected. I woke up at 5am to get ready and went to airport at 5.30am. Checked in and boarding at 6.55am. The aircraft departed earlier than the scheduled and arrived early also at LCCT. In fact, that was my second experience on board..(sian ba..baru 2 kali naik kapal terbang sampai sa lupa camana mo buka tu seat belt..hihi..nda tingu camana tu pramugari demonstrate ba..)


If u ever travel alone, i'm sure how kind of feeling you experienced. Walk straight to your destination and ignoring the people around you. That was what i did yesterday as i was in need of hurry to get to Putrajaya Presint 1 to register and attend the briefing. The registration and taklimat started at 8.00am and i was already late.

But guess what, i went to the wrong place lagi..haizz.. I supposed to go to Presint 5, Putrajaya International Conventional Centre. (PICC)..hehe..nda tingu surat betul2 ba..registration dekat PICC, bukan dekat ofis Kementerian Pengajian Tinggi. Luckily one of the kementerian staff being very kind to me and help me to get a cab to Presint 5...wah,,betul2 pengalaman ni..tapi kena bayar rm13 lg (metered taxi). Nasib la duit masih cukup..(dah la tadi bayar taxi 52.30sen! mahal juga la)

Arrived at PICC, the briefing was already started, but registration still opened. There were about 10 registrars at the counter and all of them were looking at me with smile (nasib bkn mcm nampak alien!) as if the expecting my arrival...hehe..ya la, sia la bakal pegawai yang paling lambat datang register..talked to them for a while before joining the others inside the hall..Siok pla jadi orang Sabah ni tau. Bila pg Semenanjung, mesti senang dikenali sebagai Sabahan or Sarawakian..Ada ja yang tegur 'dari Sabah ke or dari Sarawak ke? Nasib la nda kena recognized sebagai Philipino..hihi.

All ended around 1.30pm, called the taxi driver to pick me at 3pm..i took my time to walk around the PICC area, met several people who were kind as well and still when they approached me, this question is a must 'dari Sabah ke or dari Sarawak ke? hihi..

And today, here i am again..already with a clear mind, planning for the next journey to Polytechnic Johor Bahru..There are several things i need to clear as well at my current off ice) resignation letter (done, handed to CE just now), start packing and clearing my work desk and blablabla..

So, its confirm that i am resigning from my current college this month, and next month to start a new life at a new place, new people, new student and many more news.. at a new college: Polytechnic College Johor Bahru.-tempat baru di mana saya akan meneruskan perjuangan sebagai pendidik anak bangsa..uisehh...

What should i do?

What a surprise to me! Arrggghhh...why?why?..

Today, with the spirit of 'yeayy mau balik sudah' as the clock is almost turning to 5.30pm..Christ (our office receptionist) gave me an envelope sent through POS LAJU from KEMENTERIAN PENGAJIAN TINGGI MALAYSIA. i didn't expect anything that will surprise me because i'm sure that the letter is only a notification that i failed my interview. Well, actually last December, i attended an interview for a post of lecturer in Kolej Politeknik(i acknowledged that i will be posted to any polytechnic college in Malaysia). The interview was 's***' because one of the interviewer was a lady and were moody and i hundred percent confident that i failed.
But, guess what? wowoww..the letter in my hand stated this "ARAHAN MELAPOR DIRI BAGI JAWATAN TETAP PEGAWAI PENDIDIKAN PENGAJIAN TINGGI GRED DH41". Melapor diri pada 15hb Januari 2009 di Politeknik Johor...Huh..sa belum habis fikir..mau pigi atau tidak...Perasaan sa tidak tentu arah sekarang ...haven't told my hubby yet...arghh..will think of this offer on the way home..and give my final decision today..ooh..my hubby..my baby..what to do? arggh....

Waves to 2008 and Welcome 2009

Finally, the year 2009 is here..and today is the 9th day of it. Perhaps, some people are still waving to the year 2008,like i do. There were many things that still on 'pending' status and need to be brought forward to this year..(tapi hairan, saya juga tidak pasti apa perkara-perkara yang saya maksudkan)..sigh..('_')..

While others are busy setting their resolution(s) for the year 2009, i am still wondering what are mine instead..but, i've decided to not to have resolution(s) like what i did last year. I personally, do not even feel any difference between 2008 and 2009. May be because, i live my life the same way like last year..(i think, that's the reason!)..

Bah..sal (thanks for tagging me!), br hr ni sa mo buat tu tag 'I AM GRATEFUL because'..in 2008:

My family of TWO became THREE with the presence of 'Daniel Jeconiah', our 8 months baby boy. That means my title as 'a wife' now been upgraded to 'a mom' and so proud of it!
(the most significant thing that i am grateful for!)

in 2009:

Celebrated it at the hospital ward because my little prince been hospitalized on 31st December 2008 (early morning) due to diarrhea and vomiting. Not a good ending of year 2008 and beginning of a new year but i am still grateful because he has been discharged on the afternoon of 1st January 2009.

In fact, there are many more things that i'm grateful for, too many to mention. God's blessing to me and everybody will never stop and countless. So, lets just live everything to God to handle as our life is in HIS hands.

HAvE A BLessEd ChRIsTMaS..

Today is my last day of working. Tomorrow going back to kampung till 29th. Will be back to work on 30th and 31st December.Tidak sabar sudah sia..
not forgetting the fellows that have to work during Christmas day, dun be sad ya..enjoy this song;

HOME FOR CHRISTMAS -'N sync

Crossing in the ocean with my window view
Thinking of the time I spent with you
and I close my eyes and I see the family
Making out their wish list
All dressed up for Christmas
[jc]
On my own for to many years
I miss the happiness I miss the tears

[CHORUS]
When i close my eyes and I'm all alone
I think of all the love we shared
When I need a friend or a helping hand
I know that you will all be there
I've been gone for so many holidays
But you can light my fire
'Cus this year I'll be home for Christmas day

[jc]
I see the children playing in the snow
Precious memories that I used know
And I see the love
In the mother's eyes
Always there to teach us
The real meaning of christmas
On my own for to many years
I miss the happiness I miss the tears

[CHORUS]

It doesn't matter
How alone you think you are
Something happens to ya
When you see that shining star

[CHORUS 2x]

weekly conclusion..

hmm..dis week i think i've got load of information from:

1. Marie France Bodyline- according to them i've to spend 2k-5k just to lost 2kg of my weight. Gila ka?..dont want to say more bout it..just appreciate their marketing staff because of their aggresiveness in selling their product. Well, i'm satisfied with my figure now. So, i dont think i'm desperate to take more slimming product from them. Anyway, thanks buddies for all the hardwork to persuade us! You guys did well on it.

2. HERBALIFE - this one better than no.1. First time my wellness level being analysed. Never got that info before. If my financial department doing well next year, i'll buy your product! hihi..

3. Public Mutual Berhad -Juz now. Kind of investment thing. The consultation session was quite convincing but yeah again depending on my financial state. (Huh, balik2 pasal duit). i think this one has the lower risk if compare to the other investment. more info, just go to their office. At least, nda la memaksa mcm tu yang saaanaaa atas tu!.


Weekend..no planning yet what to do. For sure, i'll spend more time with my lovely little prince. Yeaay!!

Happy Weekend people!

tOdAy:

1. On facebook walk again. Want to wish everyone in my list 'Merry Christmas' before going for my leave next week.

YeStErDaY:

1. Went to checked my wellness level with some friends at HERBALIFE office at 3rd floor CP. They're having FREE wellness analysis.

Happy because i just got to know that i am actually 'DOING WELL'. No excess fat, ideal weight, excellent body fat range, good visceral fat (fat that surrounds the vital organs in the stomach area), good bone mass and excellence physique ratings.
Juz need to work on lil bit on my body metabolic rate..seems not enough.

2. On facebook walk to wish friends Merry Christmas.

TwO dAyS AgO:

2. So irritated with one guy passenger who sat beside me in the bus. He sat down like the seat is his. How come aa..guy usually when they sit, they sit 'berkangkang' (sorry guys juz need to say it) even in the public transportation.
Saya benci betul!
To that person (whoever u are): I mean, yea i know why u sit like that but please, don't do it in the public transportation! Learn to respect other passengers especially when sitting beside you is a female!
Please acknowledge that no all girls like to 'bergesel paha' dengan orang yang tak dikenali dalam bas! Kurang ajar betul!
i am thinking of bringing a pin next time so that i can use it to inject anyone who sits 'berkangkang' in the bus. (if i am the victim la).

Today, dont know what to write actually..i spent my day surfing and visiting people blogs and i enjoyed it.

Juz thinking of posting 2 pics of my little prince which were taken yesterday.

if you can notice, rambut depan dia nda rata coz sia yang gunting. cam kena gigit tikus..daddynya asyik lupa ja mo trim. Last2 sia trim sendiri, begitulah kejadiannya..

Jam 5 sudah. 30 minutes lagi baru pulang..hiyaa..kan bagus kalau jam 5 balik. Ni ada stanga2 lagi..

When he is happy2..

Warming up..dun know he's smiling or what..

then, hihiii..showing his little teeth..

ni..menjulingkan mata..

another style of laughing..

the greatest laugh of all..

slowing down..for another laughing session..

i had a great weekend playing with him..I never thought that being a mom is giving me such a wonderful time. I learn a new thing about him every day. It is a very precious experience for me as a woman and mother.

Holla everyone!

i've been away for 4 days...

Lama juga sia rasa. 2 hari cuti sakit terus sambung cuti hujung minggu.

So, today feel fresh and more better and ready to settle all the pending tasks. At this moment, from the 5 tasks with the 'need to be done' list, i've done one.
Aikk..baru satu? Cukup la ba tu dulu..5 kan, jadi satu hari satu la..hehheee..

What i did last weekend?
Shopping at weekly TAMU and makan-makan la..Walaupun nda berapa sihat tapi tetap mau enjoy. Makan d mana? Di RUMAH. Hehehe..Murah, tak jauh dan yang paling bagus: dijamin seratus peratus bersih!
Yesterday, i cooked healthy chicken soup and made watermelon and carot juice. So yummy!
i also enjoyed my time to prepare delicious and nutritious rice porridge for my Little Prince. While, my mum and sister-in-law were preparing some kuih2 for next week christmas celebration. So, means our weekend was seem occupied.

Last saturday, we went out for lunch once because my sister belanja makan. We choose SANGAVIAN Restaurant, owned by a local Kadazan and located in Donggongon Square, Penampang. I bring together my Little Prince. Since it was his first time eating his lunch in a restaurant (the porridge i packed from home) he was so excited. He kept making noises as usual. All customers were in the restaurant gave him attention. Hahaa..we felt like celebrities just because of him. Sampai the lady boss kedai makan tu pigi dukung dia bawa main2..haizz..for sure, there will be another surprises coming our way as he is growing up. Here are some photos of My Little Prince while he is having his lunch:

Today's thought..

i am not feeling well right now. Yesterday i had stomach problem (in the office) followed by fever in the evening. It made me no appetite to eat for dinner. Only managed to eat half of my food. And this morning i ate 3 spoons of rice porridge only for breakfast (which is cooked by my mom -in- law for my little prince). Feel like to take sick leave but can not afford it since i have only 3 days leave balance. Have to reserve it for Christmas leave. So sad. So here i am, sitting in the office :(. There are some office works haven't been done yet, but really don't have mood to settle it.

Why i got fever? Perhaps this is what happens to some moms out there. When baby has fever, mom will have it too. My 7 months son had a light fever since last week. Well, he is in the teething stage actually. Thanks God because he is not feeling so badly with the fever. In fact, my little one loves laughing and playing with his toys. He is also addicted to his baby walker. Just put him on, and there he goes! Grabbing every things within his reach!..and he is still on mood even he has fever!)

Being a (working) mom actually quite tiring. Especially when, there is nobody around to help you in time of needs. I thank God so much because i have everybody at home that willing to lend their hands when i need it.

My daily routine as a working mum goes like this (from monday to friday):

1. reaching home approximately around 6.30pm if traffic jam is terrible, but if OK around 6.05pm or before 6pm

2. get in to the house, first looking for HIM and say 'YongYong, mommy is home!', offer my hands to hold him and for sure he will smile showing his two little teeth and ready to be hold. So, i guess he misses me and knows that i am his mom! its so sweet! Once he is in my hands, do you know what he is looking for? Definitely his source of MILK. Do u get what i mean? hmmm..i decided to breasfeed my baby since the beginning of his life, so he used to it already. After maternity leave, i only can breastfeed him in the evening. So, he seems to know that he will get what he wants every evening. Like always, he is impatiently looking for it.

p/s: for everyone who is single outhere, if u r planning to get married and have baby soon, breastfeeding your baby exclusively for 2 months after giving birth is very adviseable. You will find a great bonding between you and your little ones besides other benefits!

3. After he full, he will easily fall asleep. Put him in the crib and its time for me to get shower hurrily before he awakes again.

4. Ready for dinner. Living with parents-in-law actually makes your life as a new mom much easier. Dinner is ready when you are home, your baby already eaten and already 'mandi'. Tell you honestly, i cook only on weekend! While having dinner, i do laundry. So comfortable because i just let the machine do it works. (If u r staying with your in-law or planning to,d o not let them wash your laundry ya!! bikin malu kalau itu kau punya '_ _ _ _ _ _' pun kena cuci.

5. After dinner, finishing up the laundry things (if baby is still sleeping la). if not, juz let his daddy do the rest. I am lucky because, my dearie is quite 'ringan tulang' to help (Luv ya!). Me and my little prince? Hmm..in the bedroom already lo!

6. Everything is done before 8pm usually. So, that means i and my little prince get to sleep early. heheee..

7. Finally...this: ZzzZzzZZZzz....

This morning, my little prince woke up at 5am. Do you think you can sleep peacefully if he wakes up already? Never! he will keep making noises to attract you attention. And today, i go to work with tired eyes. So sleepy right now...so with that sharing, i stop here for a while.

o yea,,by the way here we go. My 7 months little prince and momma:

He is trying out his teeth with his own finger. YummyYummy!

My career path part 2

My third job was a 'Guest Service Assistant' @ receptionist. (sesuai la konon dengan major sia: Hotel Management).

This was my first job after graduated. In Nexus Resort Karambunai. I like this job since i could practice what i've learned in class. Besides, i could meet people from other countries. Siok betul la konon time tu. But, i work for only 6 months and i resigned. Why? because only for one reason; my dearie brother is getting married and my leave was not approved! Mana boleh o kan? Family sa aramai iti, sia pla sibuk karaja..

Nevertheless, i learnt lot of things; sia jadi mature sikit pas kja sana..
