Bebelan di pagi hari

// August 14th, 2010 // 2 Comments » // blog

It’s been quite a while I haven’t updated this blog…  I don’t blame on my work,  though…

Actually my netbook crashed and had to be sent to ASUS repair service in Imbi Plaza…

Bila check2 the hard disk sudah corrupt, perlu tukar. When we bought the hard disk SATA type, the repair service told me that the motherboard plak rosak… and to replace the motherboard… hmmm… tak payahlah… baik beli model netbook baru with Windows 7 lagi..  Netbook nowadays are so cheap, did u all know? but after thinking back… should I continue buying a netbook for pleasure purposes, or buy a laptop so I can invest skit on proper software for scrapbooking and editing? The price of these two options soo varies, I’m just not able to think yet… and then, what about my angan2 mahu beli DSLR?? huh… everything nak. nnt beli kt Courts baru tahu ;p

Apart from that, I’ve been seconded to another dept… in another place. Yup, no more Subang anymore. This might be 6 months… or maybe 1 year (psss… that’s what I heard latest). All because of what eh?? Hmm… hard to say…. but I’m gaining so much more here, and trying to adapt the shift work pattern. Did I say shift?? Yes… If you’re reading this, and wondering why on earth did she agreed to all this?? Well, if I don’t try it now… I will never get the chance, I guess. A move like this is important to prevent from being too comfortable in that isolated world (cubicle) and too depressing working environment. Hence, this work is much more exciting and getting to know ops of the airline is cool T_T

If you’ve been following my tweets… sometimes I do mention about my work.

But not everybody can follow… yes, I’ve protected my tweets from unwanted people snooping into my so-called boring life… haha…   But you may try your luck and request to follow. If I know u personally, that might be considered. Or we’ve met somewhere in Alam Maya…

ooh, I sudah melalut di awal pagi… just had to jot down the things about this shift pattern…

Working 8am to 8.30pm on day shift… and 8.00 pm to 8.30 am the following day, nite shift… Oh, not everyday… then we get 2 days off.

And due to its location in FMB KLIA, I’d rather commute from ERL putrajaya to KLIA naik ERL transit… malas nak fikir drive to KLIA and cari parking… tgklah how it goes. Nite shift, the best way is to go to Bangi and tidur petang situ before heading to ERL Putrajaya at 6pm.

Oh, and ada some nites when abi has to take care of Izzuddin… I believe he will be in good hands… bila lagi mahu suruh suami berkorban sedikit after all those nites of me being pregnant, labour, pantang and taking care of our precious whenever he’s not around. Bukan mengungkit, bukan mengadu… just asking to give and take…

It’s been almost a month here in KLIA… tentatively another 5 months to go. Also I’ve been getting some opportunity to go to interesting courses. Everything is so fast and moving forward. I am so liking this moment.

What can I say now?? I still don’t have time for my scrapbooking!!

I’ve been buying some additional paper and tools, but still haven’t got the strength… huhu… I have to start somehow kan. At least before the end of the year.. haha… rugi beli macam2 kt Papier the Curve tu.

haha, membebel lagi T_T

Wanted to put some photos of work, but now that we have some company policy on photography.. well, if you know the right place… you might see some photos (psss… kena pandai cari)

SELAMAT BERPUASA DI BULAN RAMADHAN yer kawan-kawan :)

My Own Time

// July 1st, 2010 // 5 Comments » // blog

Lately i’ve been having some disturbing breakdowns where i seem to think that everything is a mess.  i’m not ashamed to tell you that i broke into tears while i was in the toilet at home, looking for some answers (no, not physically see the answers in the toilet).

i felt heartbroken, emotionally coz i couldn’t achieve what i wished for this year. i wanted to do scrapbooking… but i just couldn’t get the time to do what i used to love and make. some people just had the time to spent on their hobbies, interest… i am hopeless now. i feel hopeless.

when i’m at home, its either being busy doing all the chores and keeping an eye on the little boy who’s constantly wants attention. and i lose my will to ever continue with what i love the most. creative projects.

.i need my ‘own time’.

everybody needs their ‘own time’, right?? so, i gotta be selfish… and to make myself happier, i decided some changes… by starting off with my schedule. i gotta be selfish on when i need my ‘own time’.

we’ll see how it goes.

there are some pro and con here, but somehow i need the change. and get back my life again, for what i loved about myself, the real person that i used to enjoy.

*dunno when it’ll start or if it becomes a reality. but once it does happen, i’ll have my ‘own time’ again. no neglecting or anything, its about time i do something for ME…  and just ME!

Away – Cancelled!!

// June 24th, 2010 // 7 Comments » // blog

It’s final. I’m going there for a week. Flight will be this Saturday night.

And I’m not bringing Izzuddin coz abi doesn’t want to tag along and do nothing there.

Sob.. sob… :(

A bit hard for me, coz I’ve never been so far away for days from my precious baby. For sure he will miss me and of course I will miss him from afar.

Is it time already, for us to leave him on his own at night??

With no night-breastfeeding, is it time to wean him at 20 and a half months?

He will definitely merajuk dengan umminyer.  not anymore!!

He will definitely masam when he listens to my voice.

He will show his sad face on the laptop camera whenever we Skype… oh, so many sad thoughts already playing in my mind.

I’m sure to miss Izzuddin (and abi too!) a lot!! :(

Trying to be optimistic in a way…. I hope this separation will keep our bond and relationship much stronger, InsyaAllah.

UPDATE: Meeting postponed until further notice!!!!!!!!!!! Great news for Izzuddin and abi. Not really good news for me coz I was soo anticipating of going to France. Dar*…. if meeting resumed, it’ll be in September. What?? September RAYAlah Mr!!!

******************

For the thoughtful readers here, I’m giving away a souvenir when I reach back to Malaysia something sempena my Anniversary this July. The lucky person will be selected from my list of people subscribed in Google Connect or Networked Blog. Register before 20 July 2010.
I’ll be updating the giveaway prizes in a new post.

No.. no, it’s not gonna be an LV bag… ;p Ini lagilah bukan reality.

The thought that counts, kan?

Pray that I’ll have a safe journey k (“,) –> In Malaysia lah tapi… hehe… ;p

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!

// May 9th, 2010 // 1 Comment » // Uncategorized

SELAMAT HARI IBU! 

ya… kali ini kami sambut Mother’s Day sedikit special dari biasa… 
Ada movie outing anjuran kelab ofis, filem Ironman 2 watak utama adalah Robert Downey Jr. 
Sebab semua orang dlm pawagam saling mengenali dan bawa keluarga… so abi benarkan kami tgk wayang ni. 
Izzuddin baik je dlm pawagam… cuma sesekali nampak bosan dan mahu lompat2 dan menjerit. 
Cara memujuknya… gunakan handphone, pasangkan YouTube video Playhouse Disney. 

Then after movie habis, gi lunch di Vivo, the curve… 

Review makanan? Pizzanya biasa2 sahaja… tak cukup moist, kering skit dohnya. 
Power juice free wih every pizza so we took campuran buah tembikai + epal + oren.


Tp ayam wing dia superb!! 
bolehlah gi lagi, untuk makan ayam wing dia je… keke… 



Dalam kesempatan ni, nak ucapkan Selamat Hari Ibu kepada mak, mak mertua ku dan semua ibu2 yg membaca post ini. Take the time to embrace the greatness of being a mother. Syurga di tapak kaki ibu :D

P/S : boleh baca post blog Yana, adikku menceritakan kesungguhan mak. 
dia ni pandai sikit mengarang… huhu… :D  

celebration

// April 21st, 2010 // 1 Comment » // Uncategorized

simple celebration. 

i believe that a birthday should be celebrated with your loved ones… 
and my family are my loved ones. 

luckily this year my birthday falls on a Saturday, so arrangement to celebrate it was done simple, but memorable.
yo lah, ko dah besar sangat nak celebrate mcm kanak2 kan?? haha… 
anyway, i like how my mom remembers everybody’s birthday and buys a cake… 
she said “to appreciate anak2 yg lahir dalam dunia ni!” though my father would totally disagree…coz he tends to forget everybody’s birth date. 

here’s some pics of us family enjoying the Hazelnut cheese cake from Secret Recip*e. 
tq yana! 

birthday wishlist – all granted?

// April 21st, 2010 // 3 Comments » // Uncategorized

bulan april adalah bulan istimewa untukku. 
kenapa yer? sebab ku lahir bulan april. 3 april to be exact. 


yer, sudah 28 tahun umur ku tahun ni. 
sepatutnya boleh kata dah dewasa. 
tp ku rasa mcm belum matang lagi… so much ahead in our live to explore. 


orang2 sekitarku pun ku masih anggap muda. 
so i see them, like i saw them 3-4 years ago… masih muda… hehe. 


actually ku ada beberapa items yang nak masuk dalam list “things i want” on my birthday. 
but not all can achieve on that day… so I extend it a month. lets see whats inside the list: 

1. kek secret recipe – adik yana sudah belikan. hazelnut cheese secret recipe, i like! 
2. kasut kerja – just got it, kasut apa yer?? hehe… jeng jeng… 
3. tudung2 awning yang byk – alhamdullillah, baru2 ni dah order and dah dpt, semuanya lawa2! nnt sy buat entry lain pasal tudung k. 
4. hadiah dari hubby – i settled down with him buying me dinner, though i do wish something was given. maybe next year dpt dua kali ganda the price? kalau ada rezeki lah ek.. 
5. doa dari keluarga dan kawan – alhamdulillah, saya dikelilingi orang2 yg sentiasa mendoakan kesejahteraan saya…. moga semuanya Allah balaskan doa mereka dengan sebaik2nya ganjaran pahala. 
6. something gadget wise – still haven’t decided yet
7. backpack – yg boleh muat my walllet + netbook + bpump + telekung… byk betul nak masukkan, larat ke nak pikul?? haha… 


ada other items yg berkenan gak di hati, tp rasanya kena tunggu next year kot. tunggu bisnes berkembang baik or company nak kasi bonus…. eh, bulan april ni ada ex-gratia, my company kasi… hehe… lupa… see, bulan april sgt istimewa kan??? (though i don’t agree that we don’t get increment this year… sucks!!) 


so to end this entry, ni lah kasut ku beli utk diri sendiri. 

think its worth coz for sure i’ll be wearing it everyday to work. 
coz i hate heels (tak tahan standing on my toes) and this is the perfect shoes, flat and simple! 
bak kata @itolee “cute Mary Poppins!” (“,) 

perlu pengorbanan dan toleransi

// March 27th, 2010 // 2 Comments » // Uncategorized

agak lama blog ni bersarang tanpa sebarang berita. kebelakangan ni dok tweet je… so u will here a lot from me if you follow my tweets :D
mungkin juga sebab minggu lepas ku bekerja di KLIA dan agak sibuk menguruskan kerja. 
minggu ni pulak ada report nak disiapkan (x siap pun.. keke) 
kerja.. kerja… kerja… 8 x 5 = 40 jam seminggu dihabiskan di ofis, tak termasuk jumlah jam perjalanan ke ofis. 

so bila dah balik rumah, sedikit sebanyak menguruskan rumah dan apa sahaja yg boleh dibuat dlm masa yg pendek. 
yelah, pukul 10pm je dah start ngantuk, so bila dah ngantuk, stop jelah dr buat apa2 and tidur bersama baby. 

minggu2 akan mendatang, pasti lebih sibuk… dengan course dan urusan stok perlu diuruskan. 
semuanya perlu berjalan serentak… perlu dilakukan sebab company saya kerja tiada bonus seperti company lain. usaha perlu ditingkatkan.. chaiyok! 
bila ku decide nak bekerja, byk pengorbanan dalam keluarga perlu dilakukan, termasuklah menerima seadanya yang ku tidak mampu menguruskan rumah tangga atau menghias rumah sperti rumah2 lain… 
Alhamdulillah, ku ada suami yg sgt memahami dan sering menolong apabila diperlukan (dibaca: apabila disuruh). Ku tak dapat bayangkan terpaksa menguruskan rumahtangga walaupun seharian bekerja dan husband akan duduk ronggeng sahaja menghadap tv malahan tidak boleh disuruh menolong.
Dalam keluarga kami, saya masih mempunyai hak untuk bersuara, memberi pendapat, membuat keputusan walaupun ada ketikanya kami sering tak bersependapat. Namun, kami check and balance, dan cari penyelesaian yg terbaik.
Contoh yg terbaik, bila nak decide balik kampung melihat mak ayah. Ada hujung minggu yang tak berapa sesuai untuk balik kampung, tp nak kena balik juga. saya bangkang sbb nak lawat mak ayah sy juga (minggu hadapan adalah birthdayku)… tp bila kami senyap sebentar dan mencari idea, ku akan bersuara.. “jom balik jumaat rumah mak saya, sabtu petang kita balik kampung pula”… abi pula akan berfikir dan akan fikirkan dahulu (as usual ;p ) 

Toleransi perlu ada dalam sesebuah keluarga, andai tiada pasti salah seorang akan pening dan memendam perasaan. akhirnya, dua2 tak sebulat suara. Pasti anda juga alami perkara yg sama… sebaiknya semua perkara perlu dibincangkan untuk mendapatkan hasil yang terbaik, insyaAllah.

higher rate

// March 19th, 2010 // 2 Comments » // Uncategorized

Found this link and saw statement below…. 

Women who were formula-fed as infants have higher rates of breast cancer

Freudenheim, J. et al. 1994 Exposure to breast milk in infancy and the risk of breast cancer. Epidemiology 5:324-331. [For both premenopausal and postmenopausal breast cancer, women who were breastfed as children, even if only for a short time, had a 25% lower risk of developing breast cancer than women who were bottle-fed as infants.]


*******
since i was breastfed for 3 months only, this does applies to me. 
hmm… gotta do a routine self-examination on my breast… 


i never actually wrote about this..
previously during my pregnancy i noticed a lump… 
i was pregnant, no specific check could be done. 
but i was referred to a 3D ultrasound scan in kelana jaya, just to make sure this lump was not dangerous. 


after pregnancy the lump was still there, referred myself to another medical specialist. 
an ultrasound machine was also used as they said i was too young to do a mammogram. 
after the scanning, radiologist verified that the lump on my right breast was not malignant, or not similar to a tumor. 
however she highlighted that there was a cyst developing on the left breast. 
i have yet to schedule my next appointment. 
macam terlupa about it.. i think i did that check when i was breastfeeding izzuddin at 6 months. 


takut kan?? 


but this statement kinda made me relieved (just a bit): 


Newcomb, P.A. et al. 1994 Lactation and a reduced risk of premenopausal breast cancer. The New England Journal of Medicine 330(2):81-87. ["An increasing duration of lactation was associated with a statistically significant trend toward a reduced risk of breast cancer (P<0.001). Lactation at early ages and for long durations was associated with more substantial reductions in risk. If women who do not breastfeed or who breastfeed for less than 3 months were to do so for 4 to 12 months, breast cancer among parous premenopausal women could be reduced by 11 percent, judging from current rates. If all women with children lactated for 24 months or longer, however, then the incidence might be reduced by nearly 25 percent. This reduction would be even greater among women who first lactate at an early age."]


ada hikmah di sebalik setiap kejadian… 
Tuhan mengetahui segala-galanya. Subhanallah!! 

munawarah… i like!

// February 8th, 2010 // No Comments » // Uncategorized

Imagine you get the right tudung for everyday use and wish you had tried it so much early during those hassle days (baby smaller, kelam kabut time)?? 

i found out my ‘kena’ tudung a bit late… or maybe i was afraid to try. 
all those awning tudungs, non-ironed tudung was not really my type. 
or none were as labuh as what i wanted. 
until i had the guts to go to that boutique in TTDI. 

and there i was, looking at the mirror and thinking… i should get them before i change my mind.
and i wish i had more money to buy all those colours for the whole wardrobe.. 
this is me, wearing three of the tudungs, recently bought. some pics during my trip abroad. 

 
 



like the labuh jahit depan one better. senang, sarung je, no need to do any styling.

yes, sri munawarah is having a sale until 22feb. so anyone bothering to spend their money, you can get them there n TTDI. 
and during my visit at the shop, few of the buyers were like carrying a COACH handbag… 
and i was like?? what… well, i was in the ‘rich neighbourhood’ 
what more did i expect?? 
haha… anyway, you can find a great bargain of COACH handbags… all authentic at Affordable Style.

currently obsessed: 

1. wristlet coach – lepas tgk elly beli, then tgk ebay.. macam nak beli satu.. yes, i am a greedy person. 
2. scrapbooking templates and looking for ideas to make one… i am into craft, cuma masa takde yer…
baru announce nak buat scrapbook page utk pemenang giveaway Ammar’s Treehouse, so InsyaAllaah ni lah projek (paksa diri sendiri) untuk buat this week/month.
3. window shopping (online) all those designer handbags. kalau ada lookalike affordable handbag than that would be a bliss. 
screen monitor display blogspot yang jual handbag. 
abi: aik, nak beli beg lagi ker, bukan ke baru beli?
ummi: perempuan ni, kalau tgk dalam internet tu, tak semestinya nak beli… suka tgk.. perempuan mmg suka window shopping! 
dalam hati, meluap2 nak, tp tau tak mampu lagi
4. curtain string tak beli lagi, nak buat ala2 modern design look kt rumah, tapi asyik takde masa je nak buat projek… terbengkalai. 
5. hmmm… barang untuk izzuddin? mungkin tambah mainan sikit kot, anything affordable. 
6. abi?? dia nak beli motor…. insyaAllah boleh. 
7. tambahkan stok dalam kedai online Ammar’s Treehouse. Sungguh, perlu progressive tahun ni sebab takde increment gaji.


ooh yaa… perkembangan izzuddin dan sekitar yang berlaku… 
1. izzuddin jalan dah semakin laju, tp belum pandai nak balancing bila lari… mesti alignment lari… haha.. 
2. baru je inject dia utk vaksin setahun, tangguh sbb masa dia umur setahun dia kerap demam. inject kt Pusat Zahrah Bangi – RM56 termasuk ubat. i thought the price was much more expensive. 
Masa kt Pusat Zahrah, terserempak dengan kawan masa sekolah, Noor Fariza. Dia pregnant… ku igt pregnant yang ketiga, dia cakap “Anisah, ni yg keempat lah… all boys!” … wah wah… murahnyer rezeki dia. 
3. kami beli Beras Taj Mahal Herba Ponni – mahal sikit, tapi selepas apa berlaku pada mak dan relatives… kena jaga pemakanan terutama beras yang dimakan… less kanji, kurang glucose… risiko utk jadi diabetic berkurang. 
will update more on us, bila ada masa… take care everybody :D  
btw, SELAMAT TAHUN BARU 2010!
