Hi peeps

Today is Saturday, a great weekend is coming ahead (i hope). You know, getting older (im still young btw) i prefer to be at home rather than spent my weekend outside. As usual, every Friday morning my department will conduct Technical Roundtable where everyone will take turn to facilitate the session. Last time during my U days, I loves presentation, I love speaking in front of the public, I always lead the presentation but now, Im not, seriously not. I seriously think that my confident level has decreased tremendously when I stepped into employment world. Perhaps, I have to speak in front of those outstanding performer in this department and expert in our field kot and I always feel that I have less technical skills and not competent compared to them. Anyway, last two weeks was my third time as the facilitator.

Anyway, that was not my point. Usually during the Roundtable, my partner will give some good motivational advise for us to boost our performance, but honestly I rarely demotivated or can i say.. just ignored but unlike yesterday. She was standing in front of us in different style and she looked young and stunning. Ok ok, maybe i overrated, but that is my point right. and she told us about saving your money and loves your heart.

She told us when she was at 3rd of her working year, she was able to save RM20K in her bank's account. Amazing rite, while me on the other hand, mak aii jauh lagi. (ni tak kire EPF ni).. Looking back on my spending pattern, I dont think I can ever reach 10K even in 3 years time which is NOT GOOD. Yeah, no doubt I admit that i get a good pay from the Company, but err, you know, im blaming myself for this reason. So from this month onward, I will try to save at least RM1K per month. (err. boleh ke?) But of course, in return i have to sacrifice a lot of things. First and foremost.

1. Think twice before dining in at a fine restaurant. Ok, you know, usually i dont mind spending my money on FOOD. So rule no 1, jangan sesuke hati nak breakfast kat Subway and not even at Pit Stop (those yang kat PBD tu tahu lah). Rule no 2, dont spend on Starbucks or SanFran , yeah i have this habit kalau nak minum coffee ke ape ke, terus ke situ.. tak de pikir punyer especially during the compliance period, ha ha kan naz kan kan pisah kan.. macam orang kaye banyak duit :p unlike my hubby.. huhu..

and also for my lunch and dinner.. but naz, bile ni nak bawak pisah kat tropicana tu :)

2. then, i shouldnt pamper Emir that much. You know everytime we passed by Solaris, he always insisted to go to Cold Storage and usually - surely we "visit" there and end up, we bought unnecessary stuffs.

3. Credit cards, im not worry on my credit cards since I didnt use it sesuke hati.. but i will try to clear my credit cards as soon as possible..

So, at the end of August, I will (remind me if i forget) announce how much I could save for that month ok..

and speaking of heart.. she said that we have to listen to our heart and love our heart most. And she specifically highlighted on having a good exercise. and yes, im not good in this department. dah la keje duduk bagai kan..

you see, thats the different between chinese ladies and malay ladies, i know not all, but most of them they really know what they should eat and stay healthy unlike us (unlike me) makan main belasah je, tak de pantang larang..

hubby already bought the gym's bicycle (i dunno what we call) for two months but i just touch and used it for my exercise for less than 5, freaking 5 times!! so can you imagine how lazy I am!! and maybe from now on, i should do something for myself, at least awarding myself with less than 5kg by the end of the year. (1 kg sebulan kahkahkah)

i was about to compliment my partner that she looks totally different yesterday, but well, errr, it is better for me to zip my mouth kan. nampak macam bodek pulak.. but in case she is reading my blog (cross my fingers - please not, please not, please not hehehe), dear partner, i love to see you in that fashion ok... sangat fresh..

p/s for a record, Emir baling elephant ice age mcD tu dekat kepala i (sakit ok!!) kalau sentuh dahi tu sampai sekarang rase sakit.. and today dia hempas kan kepala dia dekat bibir mak dia (pun sakit).. hai inilah hasil melayan anak lelaki..

Finally yesterday, we brought Emir to watch Ice Age 3. At first we were skeptical to watch movie during the week days (especially me) but since we are not willing as well to swim in the crowd during the weekend, so we decided to watch the movie last night at the Signature, Gardens.

Anyway, that was my first time there and second time for Mr. Husband. I dont know the price was a bit expensive compared to the Mid Valley, but since Mr. Husband kind enough to donate extra RM$$$ to GSC, why not kan..

The movie started at 8pm but we were late, solat and the best part Emir poops and he insisted Mr. Hubby to wash him hahaha. yadayada, yes, I already trained him to ask Papa not Ibu especially when we are at malls and guess what, im succeeded.

So while waiting for them, I saw Nabil Lawak tu with his girlfriend si Irma Hasmie but of course i just pretend i do not know them. hehe.

Anyway, the movie is interesting. I already asked few of my colleagues whether Emir boleh understand the storyline and most of them said, perhaps yes since it is quite a funny movie for children. And yes..

Emir enjoyed it through out the session despite he was being very serious, he only laughed once but he did concentrate to watch the next scene. And the best part (this is why I want to blog)
He cried.. I was quite surprised he knows and understand the story, i mean such a 3 year old boy.

what scene?

The scene where Sid and the three baby dinosours saying goodbye to each other. Emir was on my lap when i suddenly heard sob sob sob. I thought it was him telan hingus ke ape kan but when i touched his cheek, yeah, it was wet!! and being so err excited, err kecoh, immediately told my hubby and we were laughing (tapi gelak kecik jer). I asked him, emir sedih ke and he nodded. Haa, he knows!!

Anyway the day before I thought him to play this one game, where he has to match what emotion match the words, of cos he could nt read lah, so i would say " Emir show Ibu which is sad face"

and he will match it and it so true!! keh keh keh.. and hasil dari tengok ice age

We went to borders and he requested us to buy Ice Age 3 books .. haaaaaa..

But we just bought Playhouse Disney Magazine. hehehe

Nowadays, my weekend will be pretty busy, especially when i have to take over my parents house and being a real big sisters to my two sisters. Sometimes it looks fine especially when your parents appreciate it and giving you 100% trust to do whatever i think best for them at the moment.

But of cos, at some point, im just tired, tired to lead the way and tired for the expectation. And yes, is nothing to do with my parents. It just me being nagging and nagging, the worst part, I have to worry for everything that relates to my parents properties. be it with cars and what so ever. ye la barang sendiri pun tak pandai jage, how how?

anyway, my wekeend started as early as Friday night, receievd call from my customer and she wanted the purple blouse as urgent as possible - nak pakai gi kenduri gitu and we voluteered to send her baju to her house somewhere in Jalan Kuchai Lama. Before we went there, I was definitely sure that I had nicely packed the baju inside the plastic bag.

But things didnt go as planned. During our meeting, I couldnt find the baju, I was searching high and lo yet the baju was nowhere to be found. Aku dah menggelabah dahj kan, ye laa hubby muke dah lain and i was lucky that customer was so damn understanding and calm. hehehe,

again i was lucky cos I did brought along other baju and again rezeki di hari Jumaat, she didnt mind to buy other baju. yeah lucky me. so along the way, i kept saying that I memang letak baju tu elok2 and at the same time takut pun ade, ye laa takut toyol mane amik kan. hahaha..

when we arrived home, i was still looking for the baju but again, it was not on the bed, not even on the sofa and not inside emir's car (mane tau kot2 dia nyorok kan) but i failed. i just stopped when hubby said "dah tak de rezeki tu".

The next day, I had to fetch my other sister in UTM and ta daa, the baju was there, i mean there there there, inside the car, behind the driver seat, i was quite puzzled cos i know i dah cari2 kat situ for the 100th time yesterday but yeah.. i mean tak de rezeki orang tu jugak..

I woke up quite late on Saturday morning but masih sempat cooked for lunch, yeah just a simple lunch. Anyway, now I slowly try to reduce as many stuffs as i can inside the house. Honestly, Mr. Husband's barangan adalah 100x banyaknyer dari barangan saya and he is the one who LOVE to keep all his stuff sampai hilang. I dunno la kan. but i think my house is already dah sarat sangat dah.

So now im thinking to sell off anything that i bought with my own pocket money so Mr. Husband shouldnt stop me to sell. And maybe I will start selling off my Anggun kerusi, harga tak tau laa berape depreciation ni, I will upload the pictures later. Tak pe lah biar lah tak de barang i pun.. at least bile jual barang sendiri tak de sape nak marah kan(biar bunyi macam kesian sikit haha) Ye saya sudah teringin untuk menghias rumah saya. I want it as simple as it can be. Kalau boleh saya nak satu part je rumah saye dikaler kaler kan.. bile lah Encik Hubby nak bagi consent ni..

Oh back to the story, on Saturday night, Che Yah (my sis) was a drama queen, kejap nak ikut balik kejap tak nak, rupenyer nak pergi Pasar Malam with geng-geng baru i mean ade lah beberape putera putera mengikut... oooo tak kisah laa.. at last, dia ikut jugak balik , itu pun jumpe kat pasar malam..

And on Sunday, I have to go back to my mum's house for

1. kait rambutan, rambutan kali ni merah merah. its kinda weird cos no monkeys are interested with our bright red color sweet rambutan unlike the year before, macam kire berebut dengan monyet gitu. but this time around, i think the monkeys tak thrill kalau tak fight kan.. haha, but i heard the monkeys go to the neighbour's house. heheh..

2. Che yah wanted to pick up some books for her revision. banyak betul and mr husband also found his book which will really help with his teaching. and yes, saya sangat teringin melihat laki saya ajar anak orang.. macam mane laa agak nyer..

3. to visit Kak Ainil (my next door neighbour ) new born baby. WAAA comel tau!! name pun kelas gitu Iris bt Muaz. Comel comel comel, when i cuddled Iris, it brings back my memories when I first hold my son cos she has about the same weight with Emir aroudn 2.6 kg.. I want baby i want baby i want baby i want baby.. and seriously I am.. upload gambar nnati, gi tengok Facebook saya ok (tak upload pun lagi)

and the best part, Iris is the first grandchild from the both side and during my visit, both neneks were there and it was so exciting to see them sooo happy having and sharing their first grand daughter together.. habis lah Iris kak ainil. manje over punyer hehe

and to that, i have one question and i really appreciate it if you could share with me,.

MANE NAK CARI ORANG YANG PANDAI MENGURUT, NGURUT ORANG LEPAS BERSALIN TU.. i prefer orang yang tua tua gitu.. please let me know ya.. tapi jangan lah bagi orang yang tinggal kat perak ke kat terengganu ke yer.. hehehe...

and Selamat Ulang tahun kepada

SHARMEEN RAOF.. aku tau 15hb :D ... Love you bebeh, moga cepat aku makan nasik minyak ko okeh..

Sekian terima kasih..

Jom jamu mate dekat SINI...

Memories..

Posted on November 22, 2005

When the First time i saw you

It was a lovely Saturday morning when Ibu woke up just as the sun was rising. It was the day that Ibu has counted since the day one I know you are inside my womb. Ibu was excited to meet the gynea as I may see you for the first time.

Baby. That day, Ibu skipped breakfast and I am pretty sure that was the first time you learn to fast. Sorry dear, Ibu thought Ibu has to fast in order to do the scanning, but Ibu was wrong. First time lah dear.

I guess you already know that "eating" is already become Ibu's middle name. Since you are in, foods always inside my bag as to make sure that both of us are well-supplied with food. Papa always mentioned that Ibu loves to use you for some reason but as a matter of fact, Ibu enjoys eating with you and never in my mind Ibu worries about putting on weight. If Ibu didn't keep my stomach full at all times, Ibu became queasy. But, you don't have to worry because Ibu knows what should be on our diet. Do you love all the multivitamins? Fruits? Milks? Chicken? Especially milk and vegetables, well, to tell you the truth dear, Ibu hates milk and always avoid to choose vege as my lauk, but for our benefits, I forced myself to eat it so that you will have enough calcium and vitamins.

But baby, you make me craving for McD's nugget and you should thanks all of your aunties and uncles (Ibu's friends) for brought the nuggets when they visited Ibu. Not only nuggets, Ibu is craving for Pisang Goreng at Jalan J and only yesterday Ibu's managed to grabbed all the pisang goreng. Coincidently, the seller was Auntie Ainaa's friend and your auntie purposely told her friend that Ibu was craving for that pisang. Haiyaa.

Back to the Saturday's morning story, 30 minutes driving to Sambhi Clinic was filled with all the stories inside Ibu's head. Yeah, everyone keeps telling their own version of bleeding which sending me into complete panic, but of course Ibu will always pray the best for you.

When Ibu's entered the scanning room, Ibu has been asked by the nurse to lie down on the bed. Papa gave a big smile to Ibu. When the doctor touched Ibu's tummy with his gadget, Ibu's eyes just glued on the screen, waiting for some words from the doctor. The doctor took a few minutes before showing YOU. Yes, its you. Ibu could see the little "bean" that was growing inside Ibu and its beating heart. Papa took a closer looked to see you and honestly subhanallah. Ibu kept telling the doctor it was amazing and unbelievable. It is miracle when someone is living inside your body.

If only Ibu could swim in my own womb, I will hug you and give you a very first kiss but as stated on paper, it could only be done on 5th July 2006. When the doctor gave the consultation, Ibu realized that Ibu was the only person listening to the doctor while Papa was busy watching you on the screen. Alhamdulillah, the doctor explained that you are fine in my tummy.

Out from the room, Papa gave a kiss on Ibu's forehead, I guess he was so happy to watch his 1cm baby and Ibu remembered when he whispered "Kite taknak bagi die nangis lagi". Yeah, Ibu easily cried even for a small thing. :) Baby, do you know, Papa is kissing you everyday?

Back to Kemensah, I spread your pictures to your aunties and uncles and your Atok. Your Atok (Im not sure what you should call Ibu's father) gave a really big smile when he looked at you. Your Mummy (Ibu's Mama) just has a chance to see you just now as she was in Ipoh during the weekend. Yes, everyone is happy to have you and I am sure when you come to the world, you will shower with all loves from us.

I love you, I love you, I love you.

Oklah, duduk diam-diam dalam perut ibu. Jangan bagi ibu morning sickness. Mari kite same-same break record takde morning sickness, so bile takde kite boleh makan banyak-banyak. Tapi tak mo la nugget lagi, Ibu dah tak leh tengok nugget dah. Pisang ibu boleh terime lagi. Hehe, tau tak pe..

Love Ibu

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMIR. GAMBAR NI DIAMBIL DEKAT HOTEL SERI PACIFIC, TEMPAH ANGAH TINGGAL MASE ANGAH ADE CONFERENCE KAT KL, KITE SAMBUT BIRTHDAY AWAL MASE NI 26 JUNE 2009. IBU TERINGIN MAKAN SECRET RECXIPE AND ANGAH BELANJE KEK.. ITS A SMALL CAKE, SOON I WILL BAKE YOU YOUR CAKE YA

Salam Emir,

Ibu bukan lah orang yang pandai tulis dan mencurahkan segala isi hati dengan ayat ayat yang boleh menyentuh perasaan. Bagi ibu, cukup lah dengan sekadar coretan online diary yang menceritakan satu persatu development Emir dan rutin seharian ibu. Orang kate dengan tulisan yang spotan makin dekat kite dengan orang itu.

Ibu menulis coretan kali ini masa Emir tengah tidur. Hari ni bukan saje Emir penat, ibu pun penat, papa pun penat. Penat menguruskan Che yah. Mane tak nyer, tak pernah ibu register sampai ambil mase 4 jam. Ape punyer sistem lah kan, nasib baik Emir tak buat perangai. Tadi Emir tidur, terus ibu angkut masuk dalam kerete, bile Emir jage, hari sudah tengah hari dan Emir tak mandi. Walaupun badan Emir melekit, ibu tak nampak tanda-tanda Emir buat perangai. Alhamdulillah.

Esok umur Emir genap 3 tahun. Emir lahir pada 2.34pm pada 29 Jun 2006. Nanti Emir boleh check balik entry Ibu mase kelahiran Emir ok. Ibu pun tak sangke, pejam celik umur Emir dah cecah 3 tahun. Dalam mase 3 tahun inilah, Emir banyak ajar Ibu tentang kehidupan, tentang kesabaran dan tentang pentingnya Ilmu..

Walaupun Ibu bekerja, selagi hayat dikandung badan, ibu akan berusaha memastikan setiap apa yang Emir pelajari adalah dari Ibu dan di bawah kesedaran Ibu. dan ibu rase setakat ni ibu jarang tak tahu ape perkembangan Emir..

Emir, meniti usiamu 2 ke 3 tahun, Emir sangat cheeky, makin senang dengan orang. Ikut mood Emir, bile Emir rase Emir nak didekati, panjang tangan Emir hulurkan, tapi bile tak, tak lah. Satu ibu perasan, Emir sangat tahu ape yang Emir nak, Ibu tak dapat pasti lah sama ada baik ke tidak. Kekadang Ibu rase macam Ibu dan papa terlalu manjakan Emir. Tak boleh salahkan kami, memandangkan Emir sorang saje lah anak Ibu dan Papa. Jarang sekali permintaan Emir kami tak tunaikan, jika kami tak dapat tunaikan, maka akan bawak lah permintaan itu ke bulan depan. Sungguh, sayang sekali kami terhadap Emir, kalau boleh ibu tak benarkan walau seekor nyamuk pun menggigit mu.

Di kala usia mu ke tiga tahun, satu perkara yang Ibu rase usia Emir terlalu muda adalah minat Emir terhadap komputer. Cara Emir mengoperate komputer tak langsung menampak kan Emir berusia 3 tahun. Sudah berape ramai orang terkejut dengan kebolehan Emir dan sekali lagi Ibu tak tahu sama ada baik atau pun tidak untuk Emir. Ibu takut sangat mata Emir rosak di kala usia yang masih muda. Emir tahu tak, Emir boleh bukan tutup komputer sendiri? Ibu cuma perlu bukakan suis dan seterusnya Ibu serahkan pada Emir. Emir boleh pilih apa permainan yang Emir suka. Sekarang ni Emir sangat obses main game kereta. Emir boleh ke kiri ke kanan, ke depan ke belakang. tapi ya Emir tak pernah menang lagi. :)

Tapi satu, ade satu game Purble Place, nanti Emir carilah, game tu Emir boleh main sampai menang kala umur Emir tak sampai pun 2 tahun setengah. Main chess emir pun pandai, tapi setakat tengok mane komputer akan gerak kan. Kalau Emir rase nak main drawing ke, Emir akan buka Paint, and err Emir pun pandai main Mahjong Titans.. Ibu tak ajar perkataan Mahjong, ibu cakap Matching game.. Mama memang bisinglah, tapi ibu tak de la ajar, Emir tengok ibu main.. and yes, paling utama Emir akan gunakan komputer untuk tengok segala macam kartun kat you tube. Emir kenal Pocoyo pun melalui Youtube. Emir kenal upin Ipin pun melalui You tube. The rest, Emir kenal cartoon via Play House Disney Channel. Sorry sayang, sampai sekarang ibu n papa tak belikan Emir lagi DVD player.

Manja.? Anak mane tak manje dengan mak ayah dia kan. BEgitu juga Emir. Emir sangat manje dengan Ibu. Yes, sampai saat ini, Emir masih lagi menyusu. PEnat ibu cakap Emir dah big boy, malu minum susu, Emir bukan tak paham, Emir paham, tapi kalau Ibu tak bagi, Emir akan ulang2 mintak sampai penat. Ibu pernah biarkan Emir paling lame 40 minit, ibu tak tau mane Emir dapat tenaga cakap "I want kuku ibu please" berulang-ulang sampai ibu boleh kesian dan cair. Ibu pun ajar Emir toilet train, tapi ibu stop sebab Ibu tak cukup kuat nak basuh sentiasa.. Heheheh.. InsyaAllah, bile Ibu dah betul2 bersedia, ibu akan ajar balik. Tapi Emir pun same, bile dah banyak kali accident.. Emir mintak guling2 pakaikan balik diapers. Ibu pun ikutlah, mane tak nyer ibu pun senang. :)

Bab makan, hmmm Ibu dah boleh senaraikan apa yang Emir suke, ape yang Emir tak suke. Paling Emir suke, segala ape bende bersup dan banyak banyak makanan yang ibu buat Emir paling suke, Chicken ball soup + crab meat + carrot + hotdog, memang boleh terangkat Emir makan. Pernah ibu masak Emir habiskan half of the periuk.. Tapi Emir ni pun satu, susah jugak nak makan, Emir punyer habit, bile Emir rase buat pertama kali makanan tu, Emir akan muntahkan balik, dan suapan kedua barulah normal. PErkara ni pun banyak kali jugak la teacher Emir cerita kat Ibu. Tapi ibu tak berape worry sangat, untuk ibu, Emir pun manusia, walaupun kecik, Ibu tahu Emir mesti tahu, kalau lapar, pandai lah cari makan kan..



Akademi Fantasia. Papa cakap, tak lame lagi entah2 Emir boleh jadi macam DAfi, suara tak sedap tak pe. Hissh, ibu tak berapa minat la anak ibu expose dengan entertainment. Tapi anak ibu ni suke betul Akademi Fantasia especially Aril AF7 mase Aril nyanyi lagu Panas, panas, pusing pusing and Emir suke betul lagu Menuju Puncak. err, sampai nak muntah ibu tengok lagu menuju Puncak.

GAMBAR DIAMBIL TEPAT JAM 12 MALAM 29 JUNE 2009, BARU BANGUN TIDUR, TERUS CAPAI PHONE PAPA AND TENGOK VIDEO

Pocoyo. Yes, Pocoyo masih lagi tangge teratas dekat hati Emir. Ibu rase Emir dah khatam dah tengok Pocoyo sampaikan satu hari tu, Ibu ngan Papa terkejut. TErkejut besar. Emir pasang Youtube Pocoyo dekat iPhone ibu. Lepas tu Emir letak iphone tu jauh jauh, nak tahu ape Emir buat, siap gaye siap ape yang Pocoyo cakap Emir lakonkan bersama dengan Pocoyo. Mau tak terkejut yang anak Ibu dah sampai tahap menghafal sampai that extend. Ibu tahu emir dah banyak hafal ayat2 Pocoyo, tapi Ibu tak tau sampai setiap gaye Emir boleh hafal jugak. MAse tu Ibu tengok Pocoyo Swept Away.

Emir ni ade satu tabiat, suke cakap rojak. Campur english melayu. Tapi tak pe, janji makin lame ibu tengok makin banyak vocab Emir dan hari ni mase kite ke Mid Valley Emir cakap "Too many people, I tak nampak Ibu", Yes, emir selalu guna ganti diri "Emir" atau "I".. Kelakar kan , panggil ibu pun kadang2 "You" macam..

"You lapar ke" "You ok tak" "i tak pandai" gitu gitu lah.. mungkin dari segi pelat, Emirmasih pekat dengan pelatnyer, tapi tak pe, untuk ibu setiap kanak-kanak lain perkembangannyer. Ibu kalau boleh tak nak jadi ibu yang pushy.. InsyaAllah...

dan meniti ke usia 3 tahun ni, Emir makin manje. Dulu semua bende nak buat sendiri, tapi sekarang, kalau boleh semua bende nak orang buat kan. Nak kate sindrom ade adik baru, tak jugak, sampai kadang2 tu nak bukak kasut pun mintak tolong papa. Tapi bab2 yang Ibu nak buat macam gosok gigi atau bancuh susu, tekan microwave.. yang tu lah dia nak buatkan...

Satu satunyer perkara yang Ibu sentiasa nak hari hari Emir buat ialah, Emir datang peluk ibu and say "I yev u ibu".. sebab ibu tahu, itu lahir dari hati Emir sendiri..

Emir, akhirnya, Emir berjaya tukar panggil Ibu dari Abu ke Ibu. Tak ingat ibu bile, tapi bile Emir berjaya sebut Ibu tanpa bantuan Ibu betulkan, Emir sangat happy. Ibu ingat moment tu..

Rase macam terlalu panjang ibu tulis. Cukup la setakat ini .. kalau ikutkan tak akan cukup cerita mengenai Emir. Ibu doakan agar satu hari nanti bile Emir bace entry ini, Emir tahu yang Ibu Papa sangat sayang dekat Emir.. Happy Third Birthday Emir.. setelah Emir mintak berkali-kali, ibu akan usahakan Kek Pocoyo Emir, hasil tangan ibu..

SEDIH!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We just came back from Mabul Island.

Message from Emran: "Nak kene edit gambar dulu, kene amik balik laptop dari Kak Yah (his sister)"

Ok, tak kisah. It has been quite a while, I didnt write such a detailed entry kan.

Day 1 - 19 January June - thanks Shu 2009

We departed from KLIA with MAS. Later you may know why Im highlighting this :). Arrived at Tawau Airport around 3 pm and directly took a taxi from the Airport to Semporna which cost us RM90. The first thing that I did after I got into the taxi was to SMS Pisah and inform her that I already arrived at her kampung. I experienced one hour journey sightseeing the palm view + of course some village houses until Semporna.

If Im not mistaken, we reached there less than an hour since we "luckily"had a roller coster taxi driver which results me to pray along the way. hehe



Emir: When we departed he was still sleeping, again, we didn't shower him. Hubby reminded me not to bring his stroller since most of the time we will juggle with sand and sea. And yes, due to that, I strongly thing that I have strongest arm. heheh, why?, I have to carry him to gate B11 where his position like err.. sleeping on his bed.. But he was awake before the meal is served.

He was so happy to see him on the plane, he looked at the clouds and asked me

"Ibu, how to go there?, Dibo's there?" ---> Macam Gib kan :) FYI: Dibo is one of the cartoon in PHDC.

And brilliant me, I have this intinct that Hubby has no clue or browse where to stay overnight. So, I have a quick look on the internet and found Seafest Hotel. The hotel is located exactly in front of the jetty and I read that it is the first business class hotel in Semporna. The rate range from RM99 to not sure, but we chose to have seaview and it cost RM143 per night nett.

At night, we bravely planned to walk around to Semporna town (15 minutes walk) to have a dinner. The hotel menus are seriously cheap considering it is a hotel. RM7 you can get a bowl of rice.!! But being us, konon-konon nak jimat, we planned to eat at local food restaurant. but after half way, we decided not to go since 1. No cars passing by 2. No street light 3. Too quiet 4. Stray dogs,

And yes, the restaurant (not sure whether it is belong to the hotel) is just next beside the hotel and the food best!!!!!!, I've never seen that kind of udang panggang and of cos not to forget my SOTONG!! and it costs us only for RM39.. Kenyang kenyang!!



Day 2

Hubby woke up much much earlier to shoot for sun rise and whatso ever. And Emir woke up at 4am in the morning asking for his milk but later, he was too active to sleep. Luckily we were in Sabah, at 7am we went to have for our breakfast. Emir didnt eat that much, he just had half boiled egg and coco crunch.



We then went to Semporna town. Emir as usual, couldnt stop running and jumping and do whatever it takes not to stop his Ibu from shouting and tadaaa.. he vomitted exactly in front of the hotel entrance..

So we have to go back to our room and changed.

Then, we walked to Semporna and visited the wet market. Bought some ikan masin and just continue walking. Hubby was happily seeing one green mosque in the town for his shooting. Since we were tired and sleepy, (hubby yang dukung Emir) so we took a "taxi" at priced of RM2 to go back to our hotel. Murah kan



And we get to have a quick nap for at least two hours before hubby's friend called.

Waited for them at our hotel. Oh ya, actually this was sort of gathering for amazing (their pictures are seriously great!!) photographer.

We have been waited by Azhar (the owner of Sphere Divers) and off we go to Mabul Island around 45 minutes from Semporna. Ade laa lalu dekat tempat Duyong film, yes memang lawa..

Emir: he was sleeping again all the way until we reached Mabul

Yes, there were not too many islands along the way unlike when we went to Phuket. But the view was great..

Ok.. after this would be a lot lot lot of pictures ok..I couldnt describe, all I could say, im experiencing another Malaysia. and yes, Im not sure when will Mr. Husband upload the pictures,but again, we dont have too many pictures of us. Its more on the nature and people we met at Mabul Island.

Where we stay??

From http://www.spheredivers.com/

Spheredivers Homestay & Scuba Diving is a Homestay constructed within the Bajau Village on stilts. Our Homestay offers a reasonable budget -- yes, RM70 per head per day + makan + snorkeling, RM35 for kids. for fundives and PADI courses and a more laid back way to snorkel or dive to the Islands surroundings such as Sipadan, Si-Amil, Kapalai and Mabul, home to our homestay.On stilts, each dives are easily accessible, giving us a very flexible dive schedule to your needs.

Our homestay is located as such that both Sipadan Island and main land of Semporna can be clearly seen, with the sunset facing the front of our dining are. yes, we occupied all rooms.., so homestay tu like our own house..

Gambar nanti :p

p/s Cerita pasal MAS, err.. to be continued..

What am I doing in this wee hour..

Well, it all started on one Sunday night where one little boy named Emir refused to sleep and ignored his mum. He was playing alone and insisted to tag with his Anjang (my sis). Me on the other hand, tamau la kacau orang tidur kan without knowing that my sister was still glued in front of her laptop.

So, there goes my Monday..

He repeated the same tantrum on Monday night but this time, he started to cough badly. He slept quite early but when the midnight strikes, he woke up with his cheerful face. I know by then, my Tuesday gonna be another sleepless night. He vomitted around 3 am and didnt sleep until 6 am.

And same goes for today. Informed his teacher not to wake him up, kire ponteng sekolah gitu, but the teacher called and informed that he refused to eat and sleep all day long. Hmmpph..

And tonight, he was jumping and jumping and Papa now is known as his trampoline. He was too active until I decided to h ave my beautiful dreams first. Well, actually Im off to bed at 10 am, sangat mengantuk after all his drama.

Woke up at 153 am and saw him watching his Pocoyo using my phone. Up until 230 am, his mother started to become his new nightmare. Mau aku tak jerit la kan pagi pagi buta ni. But guess what, boleh pulak pampers nyer bocor tengah malam ni. Hmpph.

Only at 3.30am, my sweet baby finally sleeps. and me, dunno what will happen tomorrow.

p/s Anjang off to UK to meet my parents, yes they are leaving Obama's territory.. Ani off to Bali wah wah wah, enjoy yer korang.. and Encik Saffuan, boleh tak sekali sekala membuzz kakak mu ini.. Sekian terima kasih

FATHER's DAY CAKE

Intoducing my first fondant cake without any teacher besides me. Sangat happy since I did everything from scratch even for its fondant. oh correction: except for the gumpaste since I bought it much much earlier.

Do you know ape bende yang i cube jadikan? Well, its baju orang keje plus tie. :D A lot needs to be improved and of cos im more than willing to try again and again.. But this week, I couldnt bake since we are off to Negari Di bawah bayu for Cuti Cuti Malaysia.

And yes, someone telling me that Father's day is next week not this week. But who cares, everyday is the Father's day.
