let the pictures tell the tale

is it a trend or what to blog only once a month haha

currently feeling quite depressed over current posting that is over-the-top/suffocating/intimidating/SUCK big time. first time ever for a long time i feel suicidal. fuck you old man

anyways, dont let the fuck old man interfere with my life, especially my head. only 8 more days to go and i'll pray really hard i dont have to see you, not even your shadow, ever again.

right, raya time. it's time of happiness and cheerfulness right.. not in the mood to blog actually but need to do something to clear my head so i'll let the pictures tell it all.. or almost..

this is us! picture taken 2 weeks of ramadhan. we joined my family to buka puasa at concorde hotel, shah alam. minus my old man (not the bastard mentioned above, fyi), he wasnt invited. nevertheless, hubby & i had a great, great time, along with mama, kak lysa & abg jeff, jiman & meda and their children, maisarah and harith, and of course my youngest bro, iwan. the food was great, just that it was too over-crowded. lots of food, but lots of people too

the whole clan, minus the old man. mama left him for good, at least for now. good news for me as a woman, bad news for me as a daughter. anyway lets just leave it there

little maisarah! sukenye dpt belon. ade clown buat belon kat situ. harith pun dpt satu gak, tapi dah hilang ntah ke mana haha

about 2 weeks later, my cuti raya started, and hubby belanja us buke puasa chinese food. best! kat sogo tingkat 6, forgot the name of the place already. i've been craving for chinese food for a long time, since i left newcastle ages ago. alhamdullillah rezeki hubby bertambah baik after we got married. rezeki bini yg makan byk kot hehehhe

first day raya! typical twosome picture. makes me wondering whether the number will expand next year.. am very broody i tell you! anyway, first day raya was spent at hubby's family place at machang. ps/ worth to mention that it was my first ever experience to drive an 11-hour journey to go back for raya a day before. and both of us puasa! gile penat. luckily we drove my auto car, so that we could change drivers. but 11 hours! giler gak la when remembering the crawling traffic throught the almot 500km journey...

2nd day raya. from machang, we drove straight to genting highlands. mama decided to have our raya there, so there is where we all shall go haha. agak pelik gak la to spend the 2nd day raya at genting, but as long as it makes mama happy, then we all happy gak la. and as you can see altho it's the 2nd day of raya, the traffic going up to genting is still mildly congested.

at genting, waiting for our hotel kondo to be readied.

the next day, we had breakfast at a mamak's restaurant. someone craved for roti canai and teh tarik haha
budak makin nakal, si maisarah

us again. poyo gak bile tgk byk gambar2 gini hahah

budak makin-hari-makin-cute, harith. budak ni sgt baik, compared with his big sister yg makin lame makin ganas. craving for attention kot, i guess
guess that's all. hubby and i left genting on the 3rd day of raya, and went straight to kuala selangor to visit my side of the relatives. that night we went back home at damansara damai as hubby started working on the 4th day of raya. so me lepak2ing at damansara until the 7th day of raya, when i drove back to my uni.
ok, shud stop now. no mood to write anymore

helo

i'm still here

yes, i'm still doing the same course at the same place

no, i'm not pregnant lol

in case anyone is wondering about my hiatus

nothing much to write. erm let me rephrase that: too many things happening, but too little to write about. got what i mean?

i think it's true that when you already have someone to share your life with, you tend not to want to share your life with the world anymore. do you think that's true?

right here and right now, i'm really grateful for everything that i have. life isnt perfect i know, but hey, i'm just enjoying the ride and the view that comes along with it. take a day as it is, and worry not about the future. yes you can prepare to face the future, but try not to worry too much. look at the past for inspiration, but never regret. you are who you are because of your past.

anyway, where did that come from? shrug..

maybe just the old age lol

happy belated birthday to me

happy ramadhan to all the muslims

selamat hari kemerdekaan too

oh yeah, no wonder i sound more cheerful that usual.. it's public holiday tomoro hihi. selamat beristirehat :D

weekend and next weekend..

weekend.. bliss..

but still..

the rest of the family, all of them actually, parents, brothers, sister, sister-in-law, brother-in-law, nephew and niece, all are in their way to port dickson right at this moment for a weekend breakaway. and then there'll be a barbeque and maisarah's 2nd birth party. ME SO WANT TO BE THERE huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuuuuuu

but i'm here. looking at this laptop, trying in vain to start my powerpoint presentation for next week. what can do sob sob

thank god hubby took pity at me and asked me to come home next weekend. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

so next weekend i'm going to see hubby and then he promised to bring me to watch harry potter 6. double weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

at least i got to spend this weekend freely and leisurely. woke up at 11 something today (amek ko! hahaha) and golek sane golek sini dulu. today is also my 5th day of ganti puasa. well done elly! i did it in 5 days in a row, and tomoro will be the last day. might have to postpone it tho, cos tomoro is going to be a full one, and me sure lembik punyer. dah la this whole week i was having a cold, lots of fluid lost in the tissue, making me feel quite dry and dehydrated, then this morning after subuh i had a minor diarrhoea, courtesy of durians that my in-laws gave me yesterday afternoon when i came and visited them. takpe takpe, today is weekend, i'm not going to do much physical work, am just going to sit here facing my laptop and books :)

i'm still not able to write about the last semester break. wanted to post some pics but then i realised i forgot to upload the pics from the camera, and the camera is now in kl as my sis borrowed it! walaweh. well i guess there is always next time. i'll get the camera back next weekend, when i'm going back to kl. cant wait to see hubby!

btw, should i drive or get the bus ticket? flight ticket is double the price, i've checked, so no can do since hubby and i decided to save a bit for a secret getaway for our 1st anniversary this october. the fuel cost for the trip, if i'm driving, will be almost the same as the bus ticket price (they're expensive huh, or is it my viva that is so fuel-saving?) so i cant decide which one. driving the car on my own means i can bring as much things as i want, and i can travel anytime on my own convenience, but driving also means i have drive like 7 hours, most likely on my own. penat sih! and taking the bus is not bad, but it also means about 7hours ++ in the bus, sitting, and that's not good for my neck. and then the issue of going to the bus station, i hate asking for other people's favour. plus i cannot bring that many stuff.

think i'll discuss with hubby after this, after he wakes up that is. kesian die finished his work at 5am this morning!

awake

it's almost 2 in the morning and i'm still wide awake and i got full day oncall tomoro arghh!!

i decided to blog out of boredom haha. been facing the same page and paragraph for the last 1/2 an hour. hubby is sleeping early tonight since he'll be working tomoro. sian hubby, got to work over the weekend. then on sunday he has to go to ipoh to send his sis's laptop at utp.

anyway, i just realised lately that almost all of the blogs that i have been following are not as active as they used to be. and why would that be? maybe due to being busy with family, children and jobs, and also maybe due to loss of interest, just like me. i hope this is just a temporary phase, i would love to continue writing as much as i could, and where else could i write other than at this blog?

this is to cheer me up, and hopefully everybody out there..

little rascal who has never seen such an extraordinary bright pink head-gear..

and refused to take it off for the whole day!
maisarah.. acik nina misses you..

short entry

it's been a while since i last blog. this is solely due to me over-enjoying my 2-week semester break haha. dont blame me, i did try a couple of times to blog while in the middle of my holiday, but i only managed to write half-way thru, and then was too lazy to finish it. anyway, now i'm back in my uni to start the new semester. i expect it would to be a lot more busier, more hectic and obviously more stressful year as it is my final year, but i know i wont be facing it alone. i know hubby will support me all the way, and of course the role of my beloved car is not something to be seen lightly. the viva will bring me south and north, west and east, for me to see my loved ones. long live viva la vida! :p

hmm i plan to write bout the things i did during the 2-week hols but then realised it was too many. you know i like to write in such details (more like 'elaboration' and 'description' haha). i guess that is the way and style i write, altho i was, more than once, being told off by my english writing teacher about my way of writing haha. well, i dont plan to write professionally, altho i would like to write as good as i can, but i guess that is the least of my worry at the moment haha. in fact i already passed that writing class and to my surprise, she gave me a B+ for my writing haha. how generous of her hehe

and the most surprising of all, i got an A for my speaking class hihi. and a B- for my BM class :D. i honestly thought i'd failed that BM class! susah gile BM sekarang i tell you. alhamdullillah i passed all my subjects so far :)

unfortunately, now is not a good time for me to write about the hols. didnt have the time and the mood to continue writing. will definitely write again pretty soon.. tadaloo

ps/ hate the fact that there is no cinema at all at my place, and that the new harry potter movie is coming to the cinema in a few days time :(

ipoh trip

6/15/2009 07:30:00 AM 0 Comments »
last weekend i went to ipoh. i drove all the way there, it took me 4 hours and a half to cover about 350km i think. the road condition was ok, in fact it was the first time i took that route. besides my over-used-sampai-lunyai malaysia map, this time i looked at google map to get a clearer route. it was also because when i reached ipoh, i had to go through ipoh town to the train station to fetch hubby. you know what, google map is awesome! seriously useful, in full detailed. me like it :D. i followed the printed google map religiously and reached ipoh ktm station with no hassle at all. another driving milestones for me ;)

as i mentioned earlier, i had to go to ipoh ktm station to fetch hubby, who took an earlier train from kl to ipoh. self-note: next adventure journey, i want to take the train hehe. anyway, the reason for our trip to ipoh last weekend was to attend ellina's wedding. her wedding was on saturday, and hubby and i arrived at ipoh a day earlier. after checking-in at a local hotel nearby (bravo to hubby who booked a hotel with good, adequate room), we carried on our plan of the day. but obviously after having our lunch first hehe.

first, we went to liza's house. and again, it was the printed google map that showed us the right and precised route to her house. it was a joyful moment to be able to meet liza again, last time we met was last october, during my wedding at kuantan. it was also a pleasure to meet afya, who was in such a good mood that afternoon :).


comelnya afya :) me so broody huhu. i want a baby huhu. ni belum lagi jumpe amir, anak wirda, nnt mesti terus beg hubby to give me a baby :p

after a session of borak2 (and me kissing super-cutey afya :D - told ya i am broody haha), hubby and i went to our next plan: to go to cameron highlands. actually hubby wanted to spend our night there and he spent a lot of time searching thru internet to get a good and affordable room there. but it was a school holiday season kan, so most of the rooms were occupied and the ones left were expensive ones. takpe ye hubby, next time kite pie cameron, we plan for it properly k. it took us about an hour to reach cameron, and we reached there just in time for the pasar brinchang. we pusing sane pusing sini, bought food mainly (with my fav, jagung rebus hehe) and sayur for my in-laws (veges are so cheap there). then after about an hour, we drove back to ipoh.

our journey back to ipoh from cameron. lawakan sunset. obviously hubby did all the driving hehe

that night we spent in our hotel room and didnt go out. quality time together :D

the next day, after breakfast, again we spent it in our room. at about 11 am, we prepared ourselves for the wedding. check-out at 12 noon, and went straight to dewan cempaka sari silveritage galleria, near terminal bus medan gopeng, for ellina's reception. she was so gorgeous! she was wearing a kebaya songket bunga tabur. lawa siut kasut ko. velvet bright red hehe. and most importantly, she looked happy that day, and i knew my trip to ipoh was all worth it just to see her ear-to-ear smiling face. we only managed to say a few words, but it was all expected as it was her wedding reception afterall. i hope to be able to catch her again next week, when my semester break starts and where i will be spending most of my time with hubby at kl.

on our way to ellina's reception.

notice her red shoes? i hope she keeps that shoes hehe

overall, it was a tiring trip, and hubby was ever-so-dear to drive me back to my uni later that same afternoon, and then to take a bus right the next day back to kl. so far so good, he has been a good husband to me, and i hope i am a good wife to him also (altho i doubt it huhu). thank you hubby for accompanying me to ipoh, for me to attend my best friend's wedding.

..................
anyway, now i'm back in my uni, trying my best to finish my report and presentation, so that i can have an early semester break. the semester break officially starts this friday, but i just done my presentation this afternoon, then hopefully by tonight i'll finish the report (already half way through) so that i can submit it tomoro, and then i'll be able to start my semester break and drove to kl on wednesday! :D HEHE
