Just Can't Get Enough

Sitting in my office, I remembered conversation I had with my dearest hubby on a Sunday afternoon...while he was reading the Sunday paper and I was enjoying a cup of Old Town 3 in 1 coffee...."why can't there be 3 days of weekend?"....my hubby was quiet, maybe he never think about it.....it never cross his mind.

Does it ever happen to you where you have to force yourself up from the cozy bed to get ready for work when the only thing you want to do is to be in your dreamland.....aarrrgggghhhhhhh.....I hate that.  

Friday, the alarm is off and you've set your mind for a late morning the next day.  In your sleep you could hear songs/music being played...when you just wish...really wish that you are dreaming, then you realize that.....NO YOU ARE NOT DREAMING!!!!...it's the damn radio (next door) and it's only 5:00 in the morning......aarrrrggghhhhhhhhhh......I do wish for that extra 1 day for weekend.

At last

After much trouble (mentally & physically)

searching for a new layout yesterday & the day before,

I finally decided to use this layout.......for now. 

What do you think????

Jelesnya I

Haiya......terlalu lama meninggalkan 'rumah' ni ada spiderweb sdh.....habuk pun banyak....heheheheee.  Saya sudah terover-over dengan Facebook.....update blog pun susah. 

Semalam adalah juga melawat 'rumah' member2x.  Memanglah saya ni sdh banyak ketinggalan. 

Ada member tu sampai balik2x tukar layout 'rumah' sdh

....ikut mood/season kali....

some of you might know who this person is

........CATH.......

i jeleslah Cath....santik2x & kiut2x lg tu...(psssst boleh ajar kah Cath?)

So, when i look at my 'rumah' & after mendapat perangsang from my fren si Cath.....

saya pun terfikir to change my layout lah kononnya.

Jadi...petang semalam, duduklah saya di depan komputer opis cari website untuk blog layout yg santik2x & kiut2x and most important is........it's FREE lah kan, but until this morning

pun belum lagi jumpa2x.

Anybody can help me on this????????......Cath???

Trip To Kundasang (Day 1)

For days I've been thinking where is the best place to go during the school holiday. I suggested to hubby that we go to Kundasang and stay one night at Kinabalu Pine Resorts. Still, a suggestion is only a suggestion without any proper action. Only on the 4th day of the school break did we made the reservation and we want to on Friday! Luckily there's still a chalet for us.

On the 28th August 2009; the weather was perfect; we left Inanam at about 10 am and arrived Kinabalu Pine Resorts, Kundasang at about 11:30 am. We went straight to the resort hoping that they will let us check-in early. This time, we're not so lucky, check-in time is 1 pm. So, to occupy the time, we did these.......

When it was finally 1pm, they gave us the key to our chalet and..........taaaadaaaaaa.......

After checked-in and unpacked our bags, we went to Hot Spring. Both hubby & me have not been there for so long and since we're in Kundasang we must go to this place.

That night, we had KFC for dinner and played.....

To be continued.....

Blueberry Cheese Tart

More GREEN

Mid Year Sale will end this month. So after our walk at Gaya Street, hubby & me went for window shopping at Wisma Merdeka......saja mau tengok orang shopping for Hari Raya. From this floor, we went to the next floor....from the new block, to the old block.......till we ended up at this well known store department, and to my surprise.......more GREEN. I managed to take photos most of the GREEN shirts that were displayed.

My hubby was a bit embarrased with my action and the Sales Assts...........well they were curious.

Jalan-Jalan Di Gaya Street

Last Sunday morning, hubby & me decided to go to Gaya Street. Memang lama sudah ndak pigi tamu di GS ni. Bila jarang-jarang pigi GS ni, banyak pula perkara-perkara yang 'interesting' yang pasti kita akan lihat. Bila jalan-jalan ni, misti mau ambil gambar....kalau tidak banyak, sikit pun bolehlah...

Yang paling best adalah variety of flowers yang ada dijual......santik-santik bah.

Chocolate Cheese Cupcakes

So today, I decided to bake cupcakes. I got the recipe from...eemmm somewhere....

Lets Go GREEN

Hi dear bloggers. Today I have something to show you. It's been going on for weeks now but only today did I decided to post it.

Yes, I'm going GREEN. I'm sure this has nothing to do with 'Incredible Hulk' movie. Eversince I bought the computer monitor accessory, I started to buy anything that is green colour etc. a green mouse pad, green stapler, green calculator....so far stationeries only lah.

As I was checking out new updates from other bloggers this morning, I was so surprised to see this....

....another GREEN lover, Kak Jun a.k.a yummylicious.

Why Oh Why

Been away sooooooo long....bukan pegi manapun, sini-sini juga....just that I'm hook with Facebook so much that I have no time to update my blog.

We are facing the deadly Influenza A (H1N1) flu virus. It is still under control although the situation is serious with new suspected and confirmed cases reported daily and most of the victims are those ages between 11 to 20. As if that is not enough, our air is poluted. It is reported that the haze is expected to persist at least until September.

Why oh why..............

F.R.I.E.N.D.S

......missing u all......

Fire!!! fire!!!

On the way back to the office; from C.M; this view cought our eyes....

Notice the black smoke?

Something is surely on fire

Must get tommorrow's paper for more report.

Something for my hair

Went to City Mall with hubby during lunch time today, and I bought this.....

...mousse foaming gel, adds volume to my hair.....we wait and see what happen lah.

I'm back

Sorry for the long wait, let me see.......aiyo-yo....last post was in April.

I was so tied-up with office works, especially in Mei. The not so good internet connection had also made it's contribution making it even worst. As for the kids, they are getting taller and.......naughtier.

Oops....I need to go. I will catch with you guys again later ya. Chao

Oh! How I miss you

The internet connection has been really bad due to the frequent black outs we're experiencing in the office lately....we have been practising 'Earth Hour' long before it was 'introduced' to the world, and it's not only for 1 hour.

As I have missed out alot, since the internet connection is doing the 'now you see, now you don't', I will need more time to visit and read your post. Chao.

Mini Pizzas & Karipap Pusing

At last, atas ketekunan dan daya usaha, ditambah pula dengan tunjuk ajar & gambar-gambar yang diupload dari h/phone Seri, akhirnya berjaya juga saya membuat karipap pusing.

Lights Off For Earth Hour

62 countries including Malaysia have committed to participate in WWF’s Earth Hour in 2009. This will be the first time Malaysia officially takes part in Earth Hour and our Prime Minister, Dato' Seri Abdullah bin Ahmad Badawi has indicated his support and endorsement of Malaysia’s participation.

The campaign, which hopes to reach out to more than one billion people in 1000 cities around the world, encourage individuals, businesses and governments to switch off lights for just one hour on Saturday March 28, 2009 at 8:30pm to convey their support for action on climate change. Cities already committed to Earth Hour include Los Angeles, Las Vegas, London, Hong Kong, Sydney, Rome, Manila, Oslo, Cape Town, Warsaw, Lisbon, Singapore, Istanbul, Mexico City, Toronto, Dubai and Copenhagen.

2009 is a critical year in terms of the political decisions that will be made at global climate negotiations in December 2009. Earth Hour, aims to highlight the voice of the people of the world and represent a visual mandate for meaningful policy on climate change.

If you would like to pledge your support of Earth Hour log on to http://www.earthhour.org/malaysia and sign up.

Back To Work & Back To School

Hi peeps. So I'm back to the office and J.J was in school this morning. I called up hubby just to know how J.J was doing and he told me that J.J will be sitting for english test tomorrow. What!!!...tomorrow!!!!!...mao kau cho....The teacher should give him more time to prepare..... kesian my boy. We do revision tonight o.k.

What's for breakfast?

It has been 2 weeks since our last visit to Kinarut, so today we decided to 'balik kampung'. We left Inanam at about 10 a.m, after we had our mini breakfast (Nescafe 3 in 1, Jasmin Tea, Milo & biscuits) at home. On our way to Kinarut, we decided to have another breakfast in Donggongon, and we had these....

....Tom Yam with fish & Kon Lau Mien.

Blueberry Cheesecake

The kids have been begging me the entire week to bake a cake. So yesterday, I decided to make cheesecake for them. I got the recipe from my SIL (she made one with raspberry - original recipe). Since I couldn't find raspberry, I used blueberry.

According to the recipe, the final step is to leave the cheesecake in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight, but as for this blueberry cheesecake.............can not wait 2 hours lah. I only managed to take photos after they have attacked it.

C.P (Part II)

After five days...
...and these were taken this morning

J.J was up early this morning so he continued his sleep on the couch. I know the C.P disease will be over when I saw the red spot on his foot.

I wonder if J.J is allowed to go to school next week?

C.P

No. it's not Centre Point, it stands for Chicken Pox. This happened yesterday when Lily suddenly shouted "Mummy ada 'batu' di badan J.J". When I took a look on J.J's body, they are tiny red and swollen/watery spots on his body, neck and head. By evening, his temperature was high, and we have to be with him all the time. During this time, J.J only wants to be with daddy so daddy slept with him last night. Hubby told me that J.J was shivering last night.

This morning, more spots came out. I called up my mum and she told me to get J.J to drink young coconut water. Hubby managed to get two coconut my our nearby neighbor. It's really difficult to get J.J in the house all the time. Poor him, we know he wanted to play outside, he just have to wait till he is well enough. I will apply for leave to be with him.

Finally...

Just to let you know that the server has been restored and I really hope it wont't happen again. It's not like I can't do the updates at home, it's just that I'll be tied up with the kids and house chore and by the the time I finish doing all, I'll be zzz..zzz..zzz. I need to do some paperwork, so catch up you guys later.

Quick Updates

Hello peeps. I have been unable to do any updates for the last couple of days due to the same problem with the office server. I have to use computer in the IT Dept. which is across my office building to type this post. Oh ya, I have recovered from fever but now I'm having this none stop cough....*^$%!@.... uhuk, uhuk, uhuk. For those of you who tagged me, thank you, I will try do my homework whenever I can.

Well, I have to go back to the office now. Chao

Down With Fever

I felt something was wrong with me last Monday. I felt tired and slept during lunch time. After work, went to buy some groceries & things for Lily's b'day party. I felt it again on Tuesday, but not until Wednesday that I know I'm down with fever. I sms hubby telling him about it. I wanted to go back early but I still have unsettled documents, so have to wait till 5pm. Reached home that day, took shower, took Panadol Saluble and straight to bed.

On Thursday morning, I had sore throat and running nose so I sms my boss telling him that I need to go and see a doctor today. I was given prescription and 2 days sick leave. The kids know that their mummy is sick, so they didn't give mummy hard time. I can't stop thinking that there are things that need to be settled in the office, but now I have to finish up my medicine and take a good rest.

Ashley Is 6

Happy Birthday to you,

Happy Birthday to you,

Happy Birthday to Ashley,

With love from:

Daddy, Mummy & J.J

Ashley & Jason

I don't know why, but everytime I want to take their photos, they will do these funny faces.....especially J.J.....

House Of Chocolates

Chocolate lovers now can enjoy varieties of chocolates at Cocoa Boutique. You can find Tiramisu, Sesame and even tropical fruit chocolates such as Banana, Papaya, Mango, Pineapple, Coconut and even Durian. I was (with hubby) on my way back to work and it was at the Tg. Aru traffic light that I saw banners and sign board. Then I remembered, I saw the same banners every morning on my way to work, along lintas road (Kolombong to City Mall).

Since it was still lunch time, I asked hubby to go and check the place out. When we arrived, we were greeted by Cocoa Boutique's friendly staff who will show you around and even give you samples of their tasty and yummy chocolates.......if you go there, you should try Curry & Chilly chocolates....very the interesting one, I tell you. I managed to take some photos, but after a few shots, I was told not to.......oooppsss soli boss.

OMG...Sick Beggar & Now This.......

Hubby decided to fulfil the kids' wishes by taking them to Servay Hypermarket in Likas. We went there last night but before heading straight to Servay, we had our dinner in one of the fast food outlets nearby. My hubby went to make the order while I choose where to sit.

While I was waiting, a middle age man came to our table and said something to me in chinese. He was holding a small blue colour card and when I took a closer look, it was a hospital appointment card. The man was still trying to explain something to me and I just do the 'No, No' sign (since I don't understand a word what he's saying), not until he said the word 'CANCER' and pointed his left leg. I was surprised and felt sorry for the beggar but...if what he's trying to tell me is true, then what is he doing in the fast food outlet (I know he wants money)...but shouldn't he be lying on the hospital bed. I didn't give him any money so he left. When my hubby came to the table, I told him all about it. He said the man went to the counter and asked for free food. I have no idea what happen next, enough with him.

We had to wait for about 10 minutes for our meal to arrive, and when it finally did, I saw something strange with one of the fried chicken......

When I saw it, it was covered with crust and I thought it was only chicken feather. To my surprise, there was this wire stinking out and it look like the one I use to scrub my pots at home...oh dear. Minutes later, I saw the same sick man walked passed the fast food outlet with his head high as if nothing happened.

Gong Xi Fa Cai...Ang Pau Kei Lai

I hope it's not too late to wish you all SIN NIEN KUAI LE & GONG XI FA CAI . We all had a long holiday last weekend and some might be still on leave till end of this week. We had lunch at my FIL's house on 26th and I spent the whole 27th at home...........doing nothing. Hubby took the kids to ang pau hunting on 27th. When they came back, the kids showed me their ang paus and after calculated they each got about RM40.00. Not bad ya! J.J has told daddy what he wanted to buy.....basketball, and Lily.....pink purse.

What A Blessing....

I know that He lives....
for I saw Him today
in a hand that was offered
to me on my way,
in the warmth of a smile
that was offered to cheer me,
in the touch of a friend
who took time just to hear me.

I heard His voice
in the words of support
whispered to me
when my hope had run short.

Yes, I know that He lives....
for I see how He sends
His love every day...
in the caring of friends.

Le Rêve Dinner & Dance

Le Rêve

Have you ever heard about Le Rêve before???? Le Rêve is French for ‘The Dream’, and was founded in 1988 by Phil and Jenny Hobby operating initially from their rented home in Sydney, Australia. With ten years experience in Direct Selling behind them, their dream was to create a business that would provide an outstanding opportunity for ordinary people to fulfill their own dreams, working with world class health and beauty products (perfumes, aromatherapy & skin care).

The powerful ‘People First’ philosophy around which Phil and Jenny developed the business has created a culture of trust and confidence that saw the business experience phenomenal and sustained growth in Australia. This enabled them to extend their dream across the Tasman to the beautiful country of New Zealand and then to the culturally diverse and bustling dynamo of Malaysia. Today, Le Rêve continues to be a vibrant and rapidly growing Direct Sales organisation and one of the most highly respected within the industry, with thousands of Consultants realising their dreams everyday!

Well, last Saturday night, my husband took charged of the kids as I accompanied my father to Le Rêve Dinner & Dance at Promenade Hotel. The dinner was held to celebrate those who achieved their Directorships (K.K & Keningau district). If you need more information about Le Rêve, check out their web site or for those staying in K.K, you can go to 1st floor, Tanjung Aru Plaza.

Back To Work

After a long holiday, I'm back to work today. On the way to the office this morning, tu perasaan lain-lain saja (macam baaaaru 1st day pigi kerja.....lol). There are piles of documents on my desk which I'm very sure wasn't there before I'm off for cuti2x di rumah.......My boss was really happy to see me though...... ;)

Back To School

The kids were getting their school bags and shoes ready for next week. Bought a brand new school shoes, color pencils and etc. for them but the school bags were last year's...since they are still in good condition. They are really excited about going back to school, especially J.J....could not wait until next Monday.

New Hair Cut

Since schools will be opened next week, I decided to bring the kids to the hair salon to get their hair cut done. Both of them behaved very well, so mummy bought lollies as a treat.

My Vase

My dearest buddy, Rosie, bought this vase for my Christmas present and asked me to post it. Well..here it is Rosie. I like the color, it matches the wall and especially the curtain.....macam tau-tau ja. I have not decided whether to put flowers or not, at the moment I prefer as it is.
