Kenape tah

Bila lapar...

Ingat sushi. Or nandos.

Nasib baik kat sini nandos halal. NASIB BAIK!

Tapi KFC tak halal. Hampa tau. Tapiii... nasib baik jugak sbb bau KFC kat sini tak lah se-inviting bau KFC kat Malaysia. So nafsu nak makan KFC boleh control. NASIB BAIK!

Addiction to Nandos mmg dasyat. Tapi tak sedasyat sushi sebab KENA/MESTI/TAK DISENGAJAKAN makan sushi at least 2 kali seminggu! Please forgive me.

Nandos sekali seminggu dah ok. Sebab hubby cakap tak kenyang so dia tak berapa minat makan Nandos selalu. KAN DAH KATA KENA BELI 2 WHOLE CHICKEN. You satu, I satu. Baru lah kenyang. Ehehehehehehhehe Peace! (Nafsu makan yang kuat, sy sorg je lah tapi)

Nandos whole chicken baru 20AUD dgn side dish. Kat Malaysia 2 org makan, each with 1/4 chicken dgn side dish, and drinks tak kurang RM70 kan? Seingat saya lah. Sini murah. Yes! NASIB BAIK!

Sushi dekat dgn rumah, sedap dan... murah. NASIB BAIK!
So bila hubby tak balik lunch, saya "curik-curik" keluar and spent 8AUD for 10 pieces of salmon roll (with avocado!) andddd free flow of green tea. Yes I love green tea! And kadang-kadang ditambah dengan Tako (Octopus) yg hanyalah 2.50AUD. Walaupun tak sebesar and sesedap Tako dekat OU. Heheh. Tapi tak kisah lah!



Alamak. Lapar.


p/s Tulis ni sebab lapar. Eventho ada makanan kat rumah, tapi perut cakap nak yg telah diexplain kat atas. SAHAJA. Mane nak dpt pukul 11.30 malam???

esok hari apa?

I should stop writing funny(?) and embarassing stories about hubby.

Sebab...

Dia malu!!!

And because I just knew Ayah reads my blog(OMG!), and saya tak nak lah malukan hubby kat ayah mertua die kannn? Hehe

I told hubby tadi that I wrote about the Italian speaking incident, and die siap tutup muka dgn bantal sebab malu sangat. Ceh, macam lah orang ade depan dia pun.

Ok, tulis lagi. I should stop now.

ESOK BOXING DAY! Woot woot!

a little note

Hello ladies and gentlemen.

I'll be opening orders for perfumes by end of this week, Insyallah, if time permits. Only the ones that will advertised though, dont want to take anymore request, penat! Hehe
And also some other stuff as well.
Will be having a separate blog for that, of course, so things wont get mixed up in here.

p/s Please support me. I need the money ehehehehehhe.

blah blah blah

OMG!

Did I tell you my husband talks in his sleep? (Im sure he's going to be so mad if he knows Im telling this to the world heh heh)

I just heard him saying something while Im online, he's sleeping in the bedroom and Im in the living, and he sounded ALMOST Italian! Hahahaha! I totally did not get a single thing he said, but its sooo funny!

And that's not the first time. Sometimes he speaks Mandarin. Most of the time he speaks Malay hehe and I would answer him back, not knowing that he was actually "mengigau".

p/s I found it adorable that he talks in his sleep. Maybe I still will in the next 20-30 years. Hopefully.

bigger space

Heh.

I just found out there's new templates.
Ive been searching on how to change the columns, but was too lazy to actually do it myself. Thanks to blogger, they've made my life easier! :D

So now, from an empty space, I have a bigger space! Yeay!

But because I have changed the templates, the font colors are all changed! Now that would take some time to adjust it alllll over again just the way I like it...

Now, we have to make do with whatever they have now, wont we?

7th Heaven

Ermm, Ive been tagged by Yana.This would make it my first, since Ive never been tagged.
I thinkkkkkk!
And I still dont get what's the point of all this, but ah well, it may just be fun ;)

List these rules on your blog.

* Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog.
* Tell 7 unspectacular quirks on yours.
* Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
* Link the person who tagged you.
* Leave a comment for each blogger.

So here it goes...


7 FACTS ABOUT MYSELF (Which some are soo/too obvious)

1) I got married at 23. DUHHHHHH

2) I have 8 siblings. Yes people, EIGHT.

3) Ive always been skinny, yet with big thighs.

4) I love food. Actually, I love to eat. No diet for me, ever.

5) People call me proper. So I dont know. I think?

6) Im allergic to cats (more to their fur that is) when I was younger. My dad said the best cure would be to go near cats al much as I can so my body can fight the allergies. And oh dust! I cant bear both cats and dust, if not my eyes will go watery and at some point they might get swollen, and Id have runny nose. Not just the normal runny nose I get every morning, but a real bad ones. But I guess my dad was right. Im getting much better, dust still gets to me, but not cats anymore. Or maybe I dont spend that much time or too near to them anymore.

7) Im very forgetful, and I always loose my things. The things I loose/forget where I last put on a daily basis would be my hairband, hair clip, and also brooch, and my hairbrush. I would be running around the apartment looking for it. To explain how bad it is, I used to call my sister Hajar whenever Im home and lost/cant remember where I put my stuff, eventhough she's away from home ie asrama in Langkawi, Intec in Shah Alam, anndddd this is the worst part, Brisbane! Yes, I did called her once or twice, or smsed her a few times when Im still in Msia and she's in Bbane. Teruk kan? And, she always know where they'll be. How amazing is that??? She'll be saying, "Cuba tgk dkt dlm drawer atas(etc). Slalu letak situ." And of course, after a few minutes looking at the places that she said it would be, Id find them. Tapi now tak boleh buat mcm tu dah, since Im living in a new place, and she only came once, so she wouldnt know where Id put my things. And duuhhhh I cant count on hubby. Though I always do ask him anyways, but never managed to find them until hours later, *sigh*


7 UNSPECTACULAR QUIRKS ABOUT ME

1) I have to have my good corner to read a book. My mom used to laugh at me because I sit at this one corner in my room when im reading and said, "U have a bed and there's tons of chair for you to sit. Yet you sit on the floor and at a very narrow corner". So whatt??? I need to get in the zoneee! Hehehe But now I dont have any corner I like anymore...

2) Its very difficult to hear me fart. Hahaha! Yes, im human and I do fart. Yet I wont fart in your face ;p

3) Im funny (so I claim lah kan), and always do stupid faces and jokes, BUT only to my siblings. I dont know why.

4) I hate to kangkang. Hahaha pls jgn pikir bukan2. But seriously. Whenever I drive pun, my legs would be nicely terkepit. Even when I drive manual. Belive it. And I always tutup kaki my girlfriends yg drive gilaaaa terkangkanggg! Haha

5) I bit my nails. I used to go crazy especially when I was reading a good book, or watching a movie. But I got a good scolding from mom, and now I dont bite them anymore. Only once in a while, when Im too occupied to realize what I was doing. Hehe

6) I nag, constantly. So my current victim woud be hubby ehehehe. Im sure Zu felt better when we're no more roomates.

7) I have a habit of buying things I dont even plan/need whenever I go out. (Who doesn't???) Especially alone. Usually I'll find reasons to need the things. Sometimes, if I could not find a single thing to buy, I'll go to the Reject Shop (not the same ones we have in Msia tho) and find benda pelik2 like a small jar for spices tu for $1.50. And I have lots of them, ada satu tak bukak from the wrapping lagi eheheheheh. Or sometimes, I'll look for something yg comel yg takde practicality of buying it langsung, tp still beli sbb cute. Geddit?


THE 7 PEOPLE THAT IM TAGGING

1) Miss H, or Chinn, or Haney. (Not to sure she would do this though ;p )
2) Aisyah Pahmi
3) Adam Nokman
4) Aizuddin (If you havent done this, and IF you have nothing better to do hehe)
5) Melissa Mazlan
6) Bahirah! Haha. Babe where have you been????
7) Anyone who wants to do this. I dont have many blogger friends hehe


So there. Penat pikir. This took me days to finish. Haih...

today

Got back some of my happy mood.

I think the little shopping did something, even though all the stuff are not for me.

Heh Heh.

p/s Bought a super-cute towel for Iman. Its red! It has cars embroidery to it. I hope he likes it.

UPDATE: Here's the pic!



Isnt it cute??? hehehe

Perfumes for Sale: Orders Closed

Sorry people.

There's no more sale. It ends today, so all those super-super cheap perfumes are no more super-super cheap. Even the christmas sale at all other perfumes shop and dept stores doesnt even come close to the price that Ive managed to get you guys. *tsk*

But im thinking I might be doing this for a while later. Ive compared the prices here and in Msia, so far it looks good ;D (Even when they're not on sale, you guys can still save some money!)
Insyallah if no aral-melintang, and I wont loose money, andddddd make some money for myself hehehe Possible right???

FYI, I did not make any money out of this. Hubby was furious! Hehehehe I think I might loose some since there's a possibility the shipping cost might get higher than I thought. YIKES!

Anyways, IF Im going to do this...

There's a few things I have to consider though such as shipping costs, and probs that might occur. Since its perfumes, very fragile, so I need to see how this first box goes when it arrives in Msia.
This first try, Im shipping the whole lot to my hse since I have 2 bottles for my brother and dad, and a few stuff for my adik2, so it would just be fair and easier that way.

So, if anyone had ever purchased perfumes online, and got them delived by post, can you advice me how they pack the perfume? Or do they simply just wrap the perfume box, and post it? Without any other extra packaging, like bubble wrap ke??? Hehehhehe Sorry laa saya baru belajar, agak clueless ;p

Have a great weekend people!

p/s Miss Ifi Fifi, if you are reading this, I just got back from my last trip to buy the perfumes when I got ur msg. Very sorry! But keep on reading here, I MIGHT advertise again ;)

inspire me please.

Im so lost I dont know what to write.

And I noticed the blogs I frequently read also doesnt update anymore.

So there.



I think Ive lost my inspiration...

Ive tried to write a few, yet I always left it unfinished.



*sigh*



I think Im having a 3 weeks PMS. gawd!



Plus I have lots of things on my mind right now, I have no time to blog. Wait. I do have time. But I just dont know what to write... Ive been in a sappy moody mood everyday.



I need rainbow, I need colors, I need some really-really happy songs.



I listened to Raindrops since it in my head tiba2 while Im writing this, but I dont like the version that I have. *sigh*

So Im back to square one.



Or maybe I need to be on sugar high.

hot hot hot

The temperature today is 37 degrees!
Panas gila.

We went to lunch and was thinking of going out for a walk after that, but when we got out of our apartment, the heat hit us right on!
Its sooo hot, we rushed back home right after lunch, thinking of the comfort at home. And ice cold water.

So its day in for us today, which is very rare. Lazying around the house with the skimpiest clothes you can find!

p/s Will be going to the chemist tomorrow to buy the perfumes ordered! Yeayyy!

Special Announcement : CHEAP PERFUMES FOR SALE

I went to the halal butcher today since hubby wanted to eat the Honey & Rosemary marinated lamb, which I dont know how to do!

After that, I went to walk along the row of shops outside of Wollies, and I found a chemist warehouse. I was attracted to the big ad in front of the shop that says...

"MASSIVE CHRISTMAS FRAGRANCE SALE"

Oohhhhhh. Menarik!

Its a bargain I tell youuuuuuu!

Initially wanted to buy the Elizabeth Arden Green Tea because it was sooooo cheap! $18 je ok. Can u imagine? Then I saw my all time favourite perfume, which I never get for myself, and I dont know why. Oh wait, yes I do know why. Its expensive! Kat Malaysia around RM300, gila ke? So I thought, Ok ni boleh beli nih. YES!

Until I saw the perfume Hakeem had been eyeing for years. Thanks to my addiction in magazines, got the miniature of the Versace Eau Fraiche for Men, and he loves it. Try cari kat kedai, takde. Then, later last month he found one, tatau kat mana, tapi mahal, for around RM300 for, im guessing 100ml?

So anyways, bought the Versace for Hakeem instead sebab teringat kat dia, and its super cheap! Its around RM160 je for 100ml!

So guys! If you wanna get a great deal on perfumes, let me know k. Im listing a few of the perfumes with the prices, tapi the list tak byk, sbb these are all listed in the brochure, and I cant really remember what other perfumes there are, sebab banyakkkkk! And cheapoooo tooo! Hehe

  • Yardley Magnolia 125ml edt -- RM30
  • Elizabeth Arden True Love 100ml edt -- RM45
  • Elizabeth Arden Green Tea 100ml edt -- RM45
  • Elizabeth Arden Sunflowers 100ml edt -- RM45
  • Elizabeth Arden Arden Beauty 100ml edp -- RM60
  • Elizabeth Arden Splendour 125ml edp -- RM60
  • Elizabeth Arden Red Door 100ml edt -- RM75
  • Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue 125ml edp -- RM80
  • CK Be 50ml edt -- RM80
  • CK One 50ml edt -- RM80
  • CK Crave 75ml -- RM90
  • CK Eternity for Men 100ml edt -- RM135
  • Versace Red Jeans 75ml -- RM80
  • Versace Blue Jean 75ml -- RM80
  • Versace Eau Fraiche for Men 50ml -- RM130
  • Versace Eau Fraice for Men 100ml -- RM160 (Yes, buying 100ml is much cheaper!) -Very2 nice!
  • Versace Bright Crystal for Women 50ml edt -- RM135
  • Versace Bright Crystal for Women 100ml edt -- will check the price later if anyone is interested since I dont have the price at the moment
  • Britney Spears Curious 50ml edp -- RM80
  • Britney Spears Fantasy Midnight 100ml edp -- RM120
  • Britney Spears Fantasy 50ml edp -- RM90
  • Britney Spears Fantasy 100ml edp -- RM120

  • Davidoff Cool Water for Men 125ml edt -- RM115
  • Davidoff Cool Water for Women 100ml edt -- RM115
  • Davidoff Echo Woman 100ml edp -- RM135

These are the only ones listed in the brochure. But I remember the perfumes available such as:

  • Lancome Miracle
  • Ralph Lauren
  • Bvlgari
  • Gucci
  • YSL (Cheapp! But cant remember the prices)
  • Sarah Jesicca Parker
  • Hillary Duff
  • Giorgio Armani
  • DKNY
  • Burberry
  • Tommy Hilfiger
  • Dolce & Gabbana

These are all that I can remember for now. So IF there's any that you want me to check out specifically, Im glad to help, and buy it for you! Hehe

Dont worry about the shipping from Aussie to Msia. Ive checked, and insyallah the price should be around RM10-15 only for each bottle. Andddd if I can get my friend to bring back some when she's going back to Msia after Christmas, most prob I can reduce the price of shipping! :D

Please bear in mind, the sale will be on until 19 Dec je, after that, might still be cheap compared to retail price, but not this cheap! So, if you are interested, you can order until Friday 19 Dec before 2pm because if there's any orders left, I might go there again after 2pm, and get something for me as well ;)

Interested, email me at sarahpahmi@gmail.com.

So darlings, spread the loveeeee!

So excited, because I loveeeeeeeeeeee perfumes! Rasa nak beli je semua! hehe

Oh how I love christmas sale...

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Adha

Oh.

SELAMAT HARI RAYA EVERYONE.

Kami tak korban tahun ni. Macam lah tahun lepas korban, ye tak?
Tapi we should. Cuma hubby buat-buat leceh, and I was of course, ignorant dengan benda-benda ni until MIL mentioned it.

So we missed it. The Sheikh said its too late.

Ah well.

Anywayyy, hope all of you had a nice Hari Raya Haji/Korban, and makan lembu/kambing banyak-banyak sampai pening.

My family are celebrating in KL instead of Besut, so no korban and no daging bakar yang sedap tahun ni. So saya takde lah jelous sangat bila teringat ramai-ramai keliling the BBQ utk makan daging bakar panas-panas cicah dengan kicap+cili.

Cuma ada Nasi Dagang, Rendang and Ketupat.

Fuuuuuhhhhhh!

And Nenek dengan berani nya ajak makan Nasi Dagang sama. Cit!

The phone call

I was still bergolek2 at 11am. Malasnya!!! I slept at 3am reading the new book I just bought, Remember Me?, and I could not stop! So typical Sophie Kinsella's writing, witty and funny, and Im loving it!

Then the phone rang. I knew it would be from Malaysia, tried to gather myself, then the phone stops ringing. Plonked back to my fluffly pillows, when it rang again. I immediately answered, and I heard Ayah's voice. "Hi long!" Verryyyy cheerful. And I heard noises at the back, of course, I was on speakerphone, as always. "Hiii! Selamat Hari Raya!" We exchanged raya wishes, menu and what not, then I heard the voice I miss sooo much! Iman.

Iman: Hi Kaklong! (Sgt cheerful, and high-pitched)

Me: Haiiiii Iman!!!

Iman: Kaklong, Iman demam!

Me: Ye ke? Sian nye dia. Makan ubat tak?

Iman: Makan! Iman tak pegi klenek pun. (Mane laaa die belajar cakap klinik, klenek! Aiyoooo!)

Me: Haha good boy!

Iman: Kaklong, Kaklong kat mana!? (Behind, everyone started laughing, as this is the most famous question of all time, whenever he talks to me)

Me: Kaklong kat rumah Kaklong laa...

Iman: Iman nak Kaklong datang rumah Iman! (Terharu sebentar)

Me: Ye ke? Ok, Kaklong pun nakkk sangat pegi rumah Iman.

Iman: Hmmm!

Me: Iman rindu Kaklong tak?

Iman: Haaaa... (this time around, agak slow malu-malu kucing nak admit)

p/s Notice the ! sign every sentence Iman said. Yes. He was talking to me, excited voice, and high-piched. Sungguh rindu!

Then I spoke to everyone. Including Nenek. And ohhhhhh this conversation has to be told.

Nenek: Bila nya nak kerja? (So I thought)

Me: Ohh Syed ckp tunggu dia habis cuti bulan 1 ni baru try.

Nenek and Umi both laughes! (Weird.)

Nenek: Ada time-time plan pulak dia ni. Li dah nak dukung baby dah.

Me: Haa tu laa. Tau. (Being sooooo ignorant of what was happening at that time)

Errkkk? Did I miss something??? Was she actually asking me bila nak ada baby instead of work? Damn!!!!

And I've just realized it when I hung up. Gila lah. Now Nenek thinks merepek dah. Macam mana nak fix nih!?!

The Domestic Me

We had an early Saturday today.
Went for breakfast, we had Machiato coffee, latte, pancakes and toast.
Huge appetite kan?
After breakfast, we went to Target since its the only shop open at that time. (8.30am!) While we were browsing, tiba-tiba sakit perut. Both pulak tu! Penangan coffee punya pasal.

So we immediately rushed to the cashier to pay for our things. He bought a supercool Marvel comics character T-shirt but I forgot which it was, and I got this!




Yeayyy!!!

Berbalik to the story, kami pun rush lah pulang. Sakit perut ehem ehem agaklah serious. Its lucky our apartment is just a walking distance! Hubby literally ran! Hahahahhaha
Me? Boleh tahan lagi ;p So I asked him to go ahead, lari dulu, and I was a few minutes behind him. Haha!

We later decided to take the train to go to City West, nak pergi Harvey Norman. We got there around 9.30am, and there's still not many people. Was very happy browsing through the electrical goods, and spent hours browsing dekat the TV section.
Bought a Canon Pixma printer for a mere $49, and I got something for myself as well. Yeayy lagi! Benda ni I had been eyeing for years, and a few months dah survey2 harga kat sini. The most was $89 time awal-awal sampai. And we managed to find more cheaper stores. The cheapest for that "thing" I found is $50, so I thought to myself, Ok laa simpan duit sikit-sikit (not that takde duit, just wont waste that much untuk beli itu benda haha) so tak laa terasa mahal sgt kan?
Then today, I checked for that thing, tapi mahal sebab ada extended features, for $89. Cit! Skali hubby showed me ada this one section, for half price!!! Not from $89, tapi $50. And its the one that I wanted, sbb I dont need the extended features. So I asked him, boleh ke beli, and he said if its for real boleh dapat half price, boleh laa beli.

And oh yea, the price tag didnt say half price or its on sale, tapi there's a huge banner ckp half price, tapi was not really sure if that thing is also in the sale, sbb jauh sikit from the banner.

So I went to ask the salesman. This is the conversation.

Me: Hi. Would like to know, is this half price as well?

Guy: Sure! If you want.

Me: *muka blur, kelip-kelip mata* What do you mean, if I want?

Guy: Well, I can give you half price, which is $25 if you really want to buy this.

I grinned at him, ear to ear, and said: Of course I want! Thank you soooo much!

And he wrote the new price at the tag.

Then, the guy said again: If you buy a laptop or a PC, you'll get this and another 4 of your choice, for free!

Me: Errr its ok. I think I'll just go with this one only. Thanks again! *smiles*

And I walks off, holding it to my chest towards hubby, and was skipping a little bit. Macam jalan atas udara.

So, agak-agak ape yang I beli?



TADAAA!!!



Hahaha. Whoever that knows me well, knows that Im a freak for this game. I called Hajar after I bought it, suruh dia teka. Obvious gilaaa die teka betul. I didnt even tell her its a game. I just said, "Guess what I bought tadi kat Harvey Norman?" Die terus cakap, "Ape? Game?" I laughed. "The Sims lah tu!" Hahahaha!

Sooo happy. Boleh main sampai lebam!
*sampai rumah cepat-cepat uninstall the sims (not the sims 2) kat laptop yg di dload kat limewire 2 months ago, yang sucks big time! dh laa game tak complete. menyesal download. itulah akibat sebab bukan original ;p*

Looking forward to buy the stuff packs later!
* The Sims 2 Ikea Home Stuff
* The Sims 2 Kitchen & Bath Interior Design
* The Sims 2 H&M® Fashion Stuff Pack (H&M tuuuu!!!)

I dont care ape korang nak kata about my gaming habit ;p~!

Oh ye, wanted to show the price tag where the guy literally conteng, and tulis the new price, tapi hilang!!! Tskkk.

After Harvey Norman, balik apartment to simpan barang. Then went out again jalan-jalan dekat Murray Street & Hay Street malls, had lunch, then went to Borders. Got 2 books, again for my own sweet self haha
And I realized I havent read the last Harry Potter book. I totally forgot about it! Nak beli, but I just bought the Sophie Kinsella book this morning, and had spent too much, so will get it later next week or the week after that, kot? hehe

And these are the damage for today. All mine! hehe



To Aisyah and Adam, this is worth buying!



Sebaaabbbbb...



Silicone tray pulak tu! :D Pink pulak tu! :D

Yeap. I bought cupcakes recipe book and sewing book. Domestic kan? ;)

Note: Was supposed to meet with a friend, Jade later tonight to watch the Christmas Symphony, tapi was so tired, I slept for 4 hours straight! And now its 1.30am, and Im wide awake. *sigh*

Saya Mahu!

Today, I went to David Jones again with hubby.
I told you I went there before right? I told him, its full of DESIGNERS clothes, shoes, bag and everything!!! Ohhhh I think I almost died in heaven!

Of course, I went to the women's shoe section, and there's a section where the shoes are on sale. I went to check them and was ogling at the shoes! Girls, I had my hands, and of course not to forget my feet on Bally, Jimmy Choo, Emporio Armani, Ferragamo, Juicy Couture and the whole lot! Ohhhh saya sukaaa!!!

*Before I left, I made a mental note the ones I like most hihi*

So today we went again, first of course we went to the men's section, since hubby wants to look for shoes. Of course there were lots! And oh sangat lah gorgeous. If I were him, I would go crazy trying on all those shoes, and buy them! Plus most of them are on sale! Shheeeesshhhhh!

After he finished browsing the whole men's section, I sweetly asked can we go to take a look at the womens shoes. So we went. When we got there, guess what hubby said???

"Pilih lah mana nak."

I was likeeeee "OMG are you serious???!!!???"

Sungguh lah excited saya ini! So I showed him the ones I like, and all of them were flat shoes. Tapi hubby cakap, "Alah boring nya. Macam tak worth it beli. Pilih laa yang lain."

Alahai. If I were me a few months back, I would definately pick one of all the gorgeous heels. But now Im more prone to flats, since we walk most of the time. So I told him, "If beli heels, rugilah tak pakai selalu. Flat boleh pakai sampai puas."

Betul lah kan? Tak baik membazir ehehehehhee

So we chose a few, and this is sort of something that I wanted to buy. I tried to search for the exact one but couldnt find any picture of it. So ini adalah "lebih-lebh kurang"...





Bally ok! Sangat cantik and selesa! And its the last pair. UNFORTUNATELY, it size 9 1/2. I can fit it since belakang die elastic, although a bit besar, but if I were to wear them in daily basis, it would expand more and I dont want that now would I? So dengan sedihnya cakap, "Takpe lah, takyah beli lah."

Oh sedihnya hati ini.

Another pair with potential is Chloe in mustard, also nice, but I dont think I want that. I prefer black. He suggested a black Armani flats, but I dont like it that much, so we left, me with a heavy heart.

So sayang, since this time around takde luck, maybe next time yea??? Dengan handbag sekali!!! ehehehehehhe

p/s Saya suka tempat ini. We can afford to buy designer stuff! Yeayyyy! Kalau kat Malaysia, kasut below rm300, a good brand, good quality, kita beli kan? Ni apatah lagi Bally ;p

Thursday, December 4, 2008

On your mark, get set, GO!

Lets lets, kite jalan-jalan pegi David Jones, jalan-jalan cari makan, cari baju, cari benda untuk dishopping kan hehe

Dan tidak lupa untuk pergi ke clearance sale yang hubby suruh pegi jenguk, kot2 ada yang menarik.

JOM!

Selamat Pagi Malaysia!

Woke up early today, to prepare breakfast for hubby. Waaahhh!!!
I think Ive been up and about quite a lot for the past two weeks. To prepare breakfast and do all the wifey thingy haha.

Tapi this morning, I woke up and was limping to the kitchen. Nasib baik kitchen tak jauh! Sakit je tulang punggung belah kanan ni. Haih. I think salah tido kot? Entah laa. But imagine lah, sapu rumah pun terkontang-kanting. Macam mana nak buat ye?

Ohhh I made nasi lemak last week. And I smsed Aisyah (bkn nk bgtau buat nasi lemak ye, sbb lain) around 8-9am kot, and she replied hours after that, commenting, "awal bangun long?" Hehehe perli betul. And I replied "Saya kan dah dewasa! Siap buat nasi lemak lagi tau pagi tadi. Sila bangga."

Yes, i said, Sila bangga. Twice! After the second "Sila bangga", I realized Im that stupid. Helloooooo??? SILA KAGUM LAH!
I smsed Aisyah again, to tell her my kebengongan, and that I meant Sila Kagum instead of Sila Bangga. She laughed, and saya kena panggil bengong. Terima kasih daun keladi!

Oh ye, I have some news to tell you guys!

Ladies and gentleman, I am pleased to introduce my new babies!!!















Arent they adorable??? Kembar 4 lagi ;p

Sarah, what plant are they, you might ask.

Mereka adalah...






Ehehehehe... Cool kan tanam pokok cili? :p Siap yg quick grow lagi haha
I thought of buying some cute flower pots, the colorful ones, but then said to myself, Im no good in gardening. So merangkak lah dulu...

Semalam adalah hari menggosok baju kerja Encik Suami.

Maka, I gosok the wholeeeee collection of his baju kerja, which is a lot! Along with 3 more shirts he bought last week. Tak masuk yang mmg dah tersedia gosok. Fuh. But I was happy to do it. Sebab.... finally dah ada ironing board! Yeayyy! You guys imagine, me having to iron his shirts bersila, on the floor beralaskan sejadah. For the whole 2 months! And I dont like to iron banyak-banyak kali, everyday. So everytime I do the ironing, its always at least 2 or 3 shirts at a time. Agak sakit belakang lah kan. Bukan nak complaint... tapi sort of complaint laa jugak hihi lagi-lagi time tgh iron tu. Encik Suami dengar jelaa bebelan mintak die beli ironing board ASAP. And everytime, he would reply, "sabar laa. bila ada time kita pegi beli ok?" dengan nada selembut-lembut yang mungkin, sambil mengurut belakang saya. Yes! Haha!

Hari ni hari apa ya?

Sudah menyapu, membuat laundry, memberi babies-babies yang comel sedang membesar minum, and kemas rumah.
The rest of the day?
Kita tunggu dan lihat...

Have a nice day!

kosong

So far ada 2 draft.
Dah type, tapi tak post2 sebab tak habis-habis tulis lagi, and tak boleh nak continue to finish it, sebab the "in-the-mood" mood dah takde.

Pelik, bila time nak tido, otak ni jalan laju-laju terpikir about what I want to write. Bebel sorang2, discuss macam-macam topic. Tapi tak bangun to type it all out, sebab mengantuk and terlalu cosy atas katil.

*sigh*

Bila dah ada time untuk memblog, semua lari main jauh-jauh pulak. Panggil, taknak balik. Degil betul budak nih!

The first time I had to deal with death and funeral

I was 15. It was my then-boyfriend's brother who passed away. Tragically, if I might add. I received the news (cant remember from who, and how) the morning after the accident. He (the then-bf) was nowhere to be found during morning school ceremony. I asked around, and I think someone told me the news, or something like that. His brother was involved in an accident. I just stood there, dumbfounded. I didnt know how to react, or say. Even worse, when I got home, I didnt even call him. I did tried once. But I hung up. I didnt go to the tahlil, even though I wanted to, so badly. I was 15. But he was 15 too.

The ex-bf, lets call him Mr K, didnt say a word to me for a long time. I couldnt remember for how long, but I remember it was a painful silence. The only words I said to him, when he was back in school was, "Mr K, takziah." He just looked at me, and left. The worst part was, it was during PMR. And I said that to him on the first day of the first paper, in the exam hall. He would stare out of the window for a long time during examination. And all I did was nothing.

Did I cry? No, I didnt. Did I feel sad? I guess so. But not sad enough. Do I care? Yes, a whole lot. I just didnt know what to do. I even consult my dad the night I heard the news, on what do people do, to deal with death, etc. But I didnt do anything.

It was until PMR, and after school terms was over, when I realized I was sooo stupid and heartless. I approached him a few times, but of course was ignored. Until one night, when his class had BBQ party, and I was invited by my friend (thank God they're in the same class) so that I could have the chance to approach him again. And I took the chance. We talked after that, and I told him how sorry I was, and I cried. And that's when he told me what happened, the whole story of the accident, and everything else. And how he felt when I was not there for him. He was waiting for my call, or my appearance to the tahlil, and was very disappointed when I didnt call or show up.

After we made amend, I asked him if I can visit the grave. And he told me he will take me there. But he never did. We never made it. He left to another school, and we just fell apart. And we let it be.

Everytime I drive passed the graveyard his brother was burried, I always made prayers, and 'doa' for arwah. I never forget. I dont know which one is his grave, so the only thing I could do is to recite Al Fatihah and doa, whenever I passed it.

To Mr K, Im sorry for the pain I have caused you, and the pain you had to deal with in your life. Im sorry I was not there when you needed me most. I wish you all the best in life, and may you lead a happy, and better life, wherever you are.

The second was when I was 18 if Im not mistaken. I was a bit mature, so I understood more. If some of you could remember, it wasa few weeks before Permata. It was announced in the hall by Mr Rahim, or Uncle Rahim. The cousin, arwah Abang passed away, in his early 30s. He left behind his wife, 1 yr old son, and his wife was a few weeks pregnant, and Im not really sure until now whether arwah knew about the pregnancy or not. It was a sad loss, for arwah Abang was so loved by the family. Not just his immediate family, but to the extended too. He was like a brother I never have. I always enjoyed his company, whenever I had sleep over at his house. Alhamdulillah he left in peace, in his sleep. But what saddens most was he passed away in another country, while on holiday with his family, including my aunt and uncle, and his siblings. It was the most tragic holiday they had to deal with.

His funeral was the first I ever experienced. It was attended by hundreds of people. And my mom said she heard the gravedigger said, the funeral was the biggest he had ever seen. That's how much arwah was loved. Everyone was there to pay their last respect. And I was there, sitting on a tikar, holding my cousin's hand.

Al Fatihah to arwah Abang.

As I grew up, Ive known friends who've lost their mother, father, sister or brother, and I tried to be there as much as I can for them. I dont know how exactly it felt like to loose someone you love forever, but I know someday I will. Everyone will. And Im afraid.

For all of you who had to deal with death, be it family, friend, or loved ones... be strong.

Let us recite Al Fatihah together for all the people that we have lost.

Takziah, and AlFatihah again...

Dearest all,

As most of you know now, my uncle passed away last week.

And some may have known, and now will know, that my friend Fatimah had lost her sister this morning.

I received the news via SMS from Aizuddin. I was in bed, bergolek2 malas nak bangun. When I read the msg, I cried.

I remember the last time I saw arwah. It was a few weeks before my wedding. I went to Fatimah's house to give out the invitation card. Arwah was not feeling well. Fatimah told me that arwah had been having fever very often. I said, "Kakak awk busy sgt keje kot." "Tu lah. Maybe laa". Arwah was so skinny when I saw her that night. She was having dinner and I stayed in the kitchen for a while to talk to arwah and Fatimah. And I didnt see her anymore after that.

Then, last month I had a chat with Fatimah. She was quite worried with her sister's health. She said arwah had been sick again, and this time it was more serious. And arwah had to be warded. She also took blood test, and on the day I chatted with Fatimah, the result hasnt come yet. So I didnt know anything. Fatimah was afraid. You see, she had lost her eldest sister too, when we were around 11 or 12 yrs old. Ididnt know her that well to feel her lost. Now I do. Fatimah said she dont want history to repeat itself. She told me she's not that strong. I told her to pray, and she has to be strong. For her sister and to her parents.

A few weeks later, I was online again, and Fatimah. We exchanged our latest news and what not, and I asked her about her sister. She didnt say much. But she said arwah is fine now.

And today, it was heartbreaking to read the SMS. All I could think of is Fatimah. I hope she is strong. I hope she's prepared. I wish I could hug her, and comfort her, and cry with her. I miss her.

I tried to call her mobile, but of course no answer. It was 11am and im guessing she's busy with the funeral. So I smsed her instead. I hope she gets my sms. Im worried on how she's doing. Dear friends who went to the tahlil, please let me know how she and her family are doing.

I miss aunty too. I really2 hope everything is OK back home.

So its two death in 1 week. And all I can do is to sedekah Al Fatihah. And hubby read the Tahlil and Yasin for arwah Uncle Syed last Thursday.

May both rest in peace.

Al Fatihah.

Note: Din, thank you for informing me. Baya, although Im far away, I do care for all the people I know back home. And its important for me to know if there's anything wrong, eventhough I cant be there, but I will always "be there". I hope you understand.
