Tiara Beach PD

A good beginning for year 2009.
We had a blast fun in PD.

Thanx to abah, our so-called ad hoc holiday saved us a lot since we managed to get a family suite at a much lower price than the single room. Last minute luck I’d say.
Idlan enjoyed the pool water so much, alas si abah so-so je since idlan did not have the gut to go further, what more to try the winding gelongsor n whatnots.
Mama became the consistent and unofficial photographer for them :p
Later on the evening, mama decided to take off Firas’s booties and he got his first contact of the pool water barely at the age of 4 m-o hehe.
Dinner was splendid, we had big plate of fetuccine carbonara, fish n chip and TBR special fried rice.
Idlan had 3-4x ice-cream and snacks in between mandi2 tuh, which cost a ‘huge’ dent in abah’s pocket. Imagine cornetto drumstick/crounchy being priced at 4.50, keropok at 2.50, etc.
Got the chance to try my skill on basketball. Sorry to say i’d be the last person to get chosen by any particular coach I supposed :p Idlan is worst, he simply kicked the ball instead of bounced it haha
And my dear firas, ahh this boy behaved well all the time. And we can conclude he hearts air-cond so much!

2009

When everyone is jotting down his/her new year resolution, surprisingly only know I find myself thinking hard of creating my own one. And here goes the list :

- To exclusively breastfeed Firas till he reaches 1.5 y-o. If it lasted for 2 years, that considered a bonus :)
- To stop (or maybe reduce) impulse buying and splurging on handbags and shoes. I foresee it will be quite hard to fulfil the mission, considering every now and then I kept on browsing these few Co*ch webbies……..sigh
- To enrol into baking class. It’s a long overdue wish that has been postponed several times due to my tight mba schedules, and further delayed when we had Firas.
- If no 3 succeed, it’s a high time for me to get Hot Stove back into action (yet if time permits, and provided Firas turns into an easy-to-take-care-of baby :p)
- To board the aeroplane! (sounds pathetic isnt it but hell I dun care) Anywhere will do, but I aim for gold coast :p Tak dpt tu yg dekat2 pon jadikla….
- To spend more quality time with Idlan, and teach him religiously

okla that’s it…penat pk.

And yessszaaa we gonna go to PD and spend a night there tomorrow. Very impromptu yet thrilled all over the body ekekeke. At last berjaya book hotel...and berjaya kuar dari KL :p Thanx a bunch yang!

Sori Farra date kite ari jumaat cancel eh.

Felt drowsy and giddy.
The little boy did not sleep from 2-5am in the morning!
Couldn’t even put him down since he’ll throw out all sorts of sounds. Enough to wake up the whole house.
Refused to sleep. Refused for direct bf. In fact since yesterday’s evening.
This time again he was driving me up to the wall.
At last I gave up. Expressed milk at 4am and fed him using the bottle.

On top of that….

He’ll cry his lungs out everytime I try to put him to sleep. This has prolonged ever since my confinement days. Sigh.
Ya Allah. Please spare me some more patience. At least until he turns 1.

And this is the 6.5kg little boy. Cute isn’t he?
How can I not love you despite all your xxxx manner?
Aduhai sayang cepatlah membesar!

family outing

Yey!
Firas has been doing well during our first outing to Jusco last week. Settled down in stroller quietly and it lasted for 2 hours. Such a good start eh adik? When he started to show signs of discomfort and making sounds, I ran into the bathroom to bf him, unfortunately there was not even a single chair available, and the odor of the place is too stench that I decided to go out. Last2 bf dlm car jer :p

Over the weekend plak we went to pasar malam on Saturday evening and tesco on Sunday. Sgt behave lagi :)This time around I expressed milk in advance, and we brought a carrier (bought during idlan’s time and worn only twice) just in case he didn’t want to sit in stroller. I babyweared him after feeding and wallah…after ½ hour he dozed off. Cayalah dik! Three outings and you scored well….pasni bley gi jejln lagi ok!

jeng jeng.....baby shaolin!

stress

Rasanye lately aku sgtla emotionally unstable. Firas dah start tunjuk tanda2 lebey prefer bottle than direct bf. Tapi aku still keras hati, masih paksa dia bf memlm even tho dia ngamuk sakan. Berperang la dua beranak ni tgh2 mlm. Mlm Ahad tu kepala sgtla 'weng' sbb tak cukup tido.

Aku EL kelmarin. Dan ape yg aku buat utk 'de-stress' kan diri?

Gi tgk Madagascar ngan Idlan! hehehe syiok giler tak terkata....i even felt like dancing together with Alikay! Dialogue catchy, lagu best2...tersgtla berbaloi. As for Idlan, that was his first time catching a movie at cinema, habis movie tu dia tanyer..pasnih citer ape plak mama? ewahhh takmo balik anak aku ni :p
Well, it was indeed an enjoyable mother-son outing :)

Dan alhamdulillah semlm, Firas ok. Unpredictable sungguh anak mama yg sorang ni. Harap2 lepas ni dia akan terus ok. Dulu aku stress time train dia minum bottle, dia protest giler. Tapi skang aku akan lebih stress kalau dia takmo direct bf. Ya Allah moga semua ni hanya sementara......

* Terasa cam nak pegi shopping sakan menghilangkan stress tapi budgetnyer enggak ada...camner eh? :p
Tanduk dah kuar....rasa gatal nak swipe cc hehehe

on breastfeeding

I'd say Firas is a fussy baby, especially when it comes to nursing. Yep see my EBM stock, people would say...wow bestnyerr dia nih! Nevertheless my breastfeeding journey is wayyy harder than one could ever imagine.

Thank god i found this useful link that has answered all my questions pertaining to fussy babies, distractible babies and what nots. Hopefully i'll persevere on way forward, though at times i do feel like giving up especially when he turned on his speaker...OUT LOUD macam org sakit!

Some excerpt from the link: http://www.kellymom.com/babyconcerns/distractible-baby.html

Latch on, suck a moment, pull off... latch on, suck a moment, pull off. Nurse a minute, pull away to smile at mom. Nurse a minute, pull away to see who just walked in the room. Nurse a minute, pull away to listen to the TV...

But in Firas case, he'll cry his lungs out during the first few minutes before nursing....or even during the nursing...macam la ade org pukul dia :p And these are what i did so far to overcome the problem:

- Nursing in a quiet, darkened, boring room
- Nursing while in motion (walking, hold him and gently bounce, sway back and forth ) - ni mmg mencabar kesabaranku...sakit pinggang nak dodoi2 dia

Moga Allah permudahkan perjalananku ini.....

10 November 2008

07 November 2008

There’s so much thing to write, yet so little time I have.

Work has really taken a toll on me. Analysis tu, analysis ni.
Found myself stucked even from the beginning since I don’t have the basic…what more to proceed and complete the whole analysis.I even stunned when looking at the P&L as if that’s my first time having a look at it. Padahal back 6 yrs ago I eat and sleep with the P&L…everything is kacang putih je. Now all looks strange to my eyes. To further elaborate, I couldn’t even remember the meaning of accrual, what more to interpret the figures. The word just doesn’t seem to ever register inside my head. OMG where goes all my accounting knowledge? tahu dek Ms Aliza mati den! (she was my bestest accounting lecturer back in MMU)

Firas is coping well at nursery. He sleeps well, behave well…that’s what being told to us la kan. Nevertheless he doesn’t drink that much as compared to other babies of similar age. On average he only takes 4 bottles/day (around 10-12oz). He’s scheduled for his 3-mth jab this coming weekend, and I hope his weight will increase proportionately, at least within the line. Talking about EBM, as for now I take pn limau’s advice not to invest for a new freezer to store the EBM. Will do clean up occasionally; toss away the old EBM to make way for the recent ones. Our budget is quite tight, further we just splurged ourselves with few house-deco thingy, hence this wont be the right time to spend on something BIG as this.

Si abang is doing ok as well. His attention span in class seems to improve as informed by his teachers, after I’ve allocated more time with him during night time. Yep it’s not that easy to take care of two babies, especially when you arrived late at home, some more having to face bad traffic almost everyday. Exhausted giler, yet I need to persevere. Tak sempat bukak tudung si adik dah bising nak susu, si abang nak susu, nak simpan EBM, basuh botol2…etc etc. Lucky B always stand by my side, if not flat makcik.

Ah my final result is out, alhamdulillah ok, in fact far better than my degree hehe. Dulu sibuk plan nak buat itu ini after habis mba, but as for now, all those plans remained as plan jela nampak gayanyer.

17 October 2008

abang dan adik

Today is the 7th day Firas was sent to nursery. Throwed tantrums on his first day, and as days passed by he’s doing quite well now. He didn’t drink much, the most he can go is 13oz, at certain times he only takes 10oz. Yesterday was worst, he didn’t even finished his 3rd bottle. It took me about 2 weeks to train him using bottles, and now I guess he started to show sign of rejection…or maybe protest? We need to find another NUK orthodontic teat like the one we bought for his pacifier. Dahla susah nak jumpe huhuhu.

Our freezer is already full with ebm, alhamdulillah for He granted my wish to exclusively bf Firas this time. The journey was not that easy as most ppl says – not enough sleep, backache, etc…lucky ppl around me especially B gives his full support and encouragement, hence I’ll try my best to exclusively bf Firas longest possible. It feels good when you’re able to share experience and tips with someone who needs it. After all sharing is caring right :) Another thing, those who feels like finding more info on bf, you may find it worth buying this book written by kumpulan penyokong penyusuan susu ibu..cant remember the title, rasanyer “panduan penyusuan ibu berkerjaya”. Priced at RM10 only, can get it at MLO.

Idlan is more attached to his abah these days. Tido ngan abah, abah bancuh susu, mandi ngan abah..sumer abah. Pity him as most of my time was spent looking after Firas (adik ni extra manja…baru letak sekejap dah berbunyi). I do feel guilty but couldn’t help much to rectify the situation. he once said this to me one night when I lie down next to him…’rindunyer kat mama’. Sedey kan? Padanla ade kuar artikel ‘dilema anak sulung’ kat magz.

Stopla…cam tade mood plak huhu….slamat bermkn-mkn..sure byk jemputan jamuan raya kat opis kan!

Salam I'dulfitri dari kami sekeluarga...dah 3rd week raya baru nak wish eh :p

Updates tak berapa baru

Maybe citer ni dah basi kot..tapi pruzz suruh update blog jugak, so aku type kat word…dia tlg upload kan sbb umah kami tade streamyx hehe


Khamis, 7/8/2008

Pagi tu drive ke ofis cam biasa. Baru 5 minit drive jalan dah jem giler....bukak radio, barula tahu jem sbb Anwar kena charge kat court pagi ni. Damn sungguh! Sejam duk dlm keta, baru sampai kat Mines..padahal kalo tak jem dlm 7 minit dah bley sampai situ. Pikir nyer pikir, last2 aku wat U-turn, patah balik umah hehe. Kalo drive lagi confirm kaki cramp, perut dahla lapar giler...mahu kol 9 lebey sampai ofis kot. Call pruzz, dia tgh brekfast kat kedai. Aku pon mintak dia tapaukan breakfast tuk aku. Kat umah, brainstorm ngan pruzz, ape nak wat ari tuh...alang2 dah EL kan..baik make use sepenuhnyer cuti tuh :p Ade 3 options, samada gi tgk citer Batman, gi IKEA, or gi check up 39 weeks. Belek paper, batman ade kol 12noon, or ptg. Pruzz kol 3pm ade klas...so confirm tak sempat nak lari gi klas. Nak gi IKEA, confirm jln jem jugak. So last skali pegila check up (yg sepatutnyer esok). Time check up, Dr Kam check ‘bawah’….dia kata dah bukak 1 cm. Dia seluk part situ kasik stimulate sket….and that’s it. Borak2 kejap, then dia kata kalo nak bersalin esok pon boleh nih…Dr boleh induce. Aku gelak2 jela…pastuh ckp kat dia…haa esok birthday saye doctor! Pastuh Dr Kam plak terlebey excited dari aku..dia ckp…haaa okla mama kalau nak sama birthdate ngan baby, kita induce esok. Kitorang cam terpana plak..terkejut pon ade….memacam soklan ditanye. Dr explain insya Allah chance utk bersalin esok tinggi, cervix dah lembut, tade masalah. Aku just takut tak ‘bukak’ je..silap2 kena c-sect. last skali Dr soh pk dulu, and decide kemudian. Dekat sejam kitorang duk kat luar klinik tuh brainstorm…calling2 mak, semah, sue..tanyer opinion depa. Then, masuk balik bilik Dr…tanyer lagi soklan2 lain. Bila dgr Dr explain cam confident je…last skali decide….oklaa pegi jela induce esok! Then pegi metro kajang, lunch Kenny rogers wat kali terakhir hehe…bantai ice chocolate whipped cream dia…waa heaven! Pruzz offer kek SR….tapi cam tade selera plak….otak cam cuak pk ari esok! Malam tu kitorang tido dekat kol 1am kots...kemas beg hospital, pasang katil baby, vacuum rumah..memacam la...

Mlm tu aku call umi, inform umi nak induce esok...umi baru sampai kl dari Mekah....umi still penat lagi...dia tak komen byk, tapi dia cam positif je...so aku pon bertambah confident nak serah diri esok hehe


Jumaat, 8/8/2008

kol 8am dah sampai hospital, register dpt 2-bedded room sbb bilik sumer penuh. Aku tgk white board, ramainyer yg Q nak bersalin ari tuh. Time round2 kat nursery tgk baby, terjumpe Dr Arbaiyah. Dia tegur tanye u wat ape kat sini? Aku ckp…saye nak induce jap agi. Dr Ar ckp …ramainyerrrr nak bersalin ari ni eh…sumer nak tarikh cun! Aku pon gelak2…ckp ari ni besday saye doc! Dr Ar terus gelak…dia kata…hooooo ok ok paed tak marah kalo patient nak induce ari ni…asalkan dah cukup term! Kol 930am, Dr Kam dtg masukkan pil ke cervix. Dia kata ubat tu maksimum 6 jam utk ade effect dia. Tunggu nyer tunggu….apesal la langsung tade sakit2 nih. Adela 2-3 kali nurse dtg pasang ECG. Boring yg amat…sempat la bersms ke semah, sue, umi, akak2 opis. Tgh hari, pindah ke single room sbb bilik dah ade kosong. Pruzz abis solat jumaat…aku still tak rasa sakit. Kol 230pm, Dr Kam dtg check…still 1cm. Dr kata macam takde chance nak bersalin ari ni. Alahai sedeynyer rasa….terus ckp Dr aku nak balik bley tak cancel jer induce nih. Dr kata mane leh balik sbb dah masuk ubat! Then dia masukkan 2nd pil. Kol 4 lebey, barula rasa contraction sket2….still leh tahan lagi. Ptg tu umi dtg, then pruzz blk umah amik idlan. Mlm kol 8pm, Dr dtg check..baru bukak 3cm…dia kata dah bley masuk labor room, and masuk drip kasik cepat dilate. Dr suggest soh amik epidural utk kasi cepat dilate. Aku pon agree jer…janji cepat selesai considering dari tadi tunggu punyerla lamat nak bukak. Nurse kasik ubat utk buang air besar, then soh prepare utk turun ke labor room. Time tu contraction cam makin kuat…kali ni attack kat pinggang belakang. Depan langsung tade rasa sakit. Tunggu nyer tunggu, last2 nurse dtg ckp taleh turun lagi pasal labor room penuh...danggg!! habisla aku…dahla sakit giler…taleh masuk drip…taleh epidural…pastuh aku pk kalo 1cm sejam mahu 7 jam lagi aku bertarung. Nurse yg check ECG plak ckp contraction awak ni cam tak kuat sgt jer…adussss habisla aku…rasa macam dah sakit giler tapi takkan ni baru bukak 4-5cm kot??? Kol 9 lebey aku soh umi blk umah dulu bwk idlan. Tinggal la aku menahan sakit dlm ward tu dgn pruzz…bila sakit dtg, aku tendang2 peha pruzz ngan hujung katil…time sakit tak dtg cam nak terlelap pon ade sbb letih. Finally kol 10pm nurse dtg ckp bley turun labor room. Bila Dr Kam check, rupanye dah terbukak 8cm. No wonder sakit giler hehe…igtkan baru 4-5cm….leganyer dgr! Dr siap ckp alhamdulillah mama sempatla bersalin mlm ni! So kali ni tinggal nak push je. Time ni masalah besar pasal aku dah tak brape sakit dah…tetiba cam sakit tu hilang. Dr kata kalo rasa nak ‘bera*’ kena push, masalahnyer aku tak rasa. Mujurla midwife tu ade tlg rasa perut aku..bila dia ckp haa ni contraction cepat push, aku pon push la...siap gelak2 lagi ckp kat Dr saye tak reti push...saye tak rasa sakit dah...punyerla lama push, tah brape kali. Dahla push kuar suara, nafas pendek plak tuh hehe. So Dr sumbatla mulut aku ngan apetah takmo kasik suara aku kuar. Dr siap ckp, mama jgn putus asa...sket lagi sket lagi (time tu dlm hati terdetik gak awatla doktor ni takmo vacuum je baby aku). Pruzz pon bukan main sebut ’pushhh pushhhh’ hehehe...luv u sayang! Finally after push yg ke brape ntah kuarla adik baby kol 1041pm J Dan aku lah org ke-10 dan yg terakhir bersalin ari tuh....9 org induce, sorang c-sect...sumer under Dr Kam. Bila pk balik, baiknyer Dr Kam ni...sure dia penat giler ari tuh tapi dia still senyum...still tunjuk muka ikhlas dia time labour tuh...sape nak bersalin, mmg aku highly recommend amik Dr Kam...serius very motherly J Yang klakar, every now n then dia soh pruzz amik gambar baby..time baby baru kuar nampak rambut sket...after baby fully kuar....siap tlg pegang posingkan baby!


Muhammad Amir Firas

Amir – ketua/pemerintah/pemimpin
Firas – kecerdikan/ketajaman fikiran

Ni la nama adik baby....panggil Firas. Memula igt nak eja Firaz...tapi tak jumpe maksud dia...so jadikla Firas. Berat 3.3kg, tak sangka besar jugak compared ngan perut aku yg kecik nih. Kuat melekap, skali menyusu kadang sampai lebey sejam. Every night ade tantrum dia tersendiri, mengamuk dlm 1-3 jam serba tak kena b4 tido. Slalu bergilir ngan abahnyer utk dodoi dia...sgtla menduga kesabaran aku. Memacam lagu dodoi, position dukung...kadang sampai aku nangis bila penat dodoi dia..stress tau huhu! Pinggang aku dah start sakit balik...aduhai cepatla berubah ye Firas! Time mood tak baik siang pon dia buat tantrum cam malam tuh. Nak letak dlm buai,doctor kata tak elok sbb baby kecik sgt lagi...kasik puting dia reject plak. Perangai Firas lebey kurang cam Idlan time dlm pantang dulu…susah nak tido. Tapi Idlan bila besar…dia la yg paling senang jaga. So Amir Firas, bila besar esok kena good macam abg jugak ok!

Sleeping pattern dia still tak consistent...kadang tido 1/2jam, kadang sejam, kadang straight 2 jam. So nak express milk pon agak payah...time nasib tak baik, elok je lepas pump, dia bgn. Macam mane pon, aku still cuba kumpul stok sket2..hopefully cukupla time nak masuk keje nanti.


Indahnyer pantang.....?

Stress! Huhu no joke…mmg stress especially time dtg tantrum dia. Badan pon penat since pantang sesorang kat umah….bestnyer kalo ade maid hoho. Masak ikut dan…mmg kelam kabut, kadang time masak terpaksa stop 3-4 kali sbb Firas bgn kejap2…tido dia tak lena. Makan mmg laju giler..5 minit dah sudah! Mandi pon express giler…kesimpulannyer sumer keje kena wat laju giler. Mujurlah ade pruzz yg kekadang jadi Mr Mama…tolong masak, basuh baju, sidai baju….kalau harapkan aku sorang…pengsan mak! Tapi ade hikmahnyer…umi kata aku dah kurus hehe….walaupun taknah timbang lagi since lepas bersalin, tapi rasanyer mmg aku dah kurus kots??

Dulu kekonon nak pinjam novel semah, baca time pantang. Surprisingly I don’t have time for that! Time Firas tido, aku pon curik tido…rehatkan badan, qada’ tido malam sama. Rasanya bersalin pon tak penat camni huhu. Time pantang ni aku rajin bersms dgn jiran selang 2 rumah...dia pon bersalin 8/8 gak...induce gak. Dia pon pantang sesorang…so slalula kitorang bersms meluahkan perasaan memasing hehe. Bila pk kepenatan aku ni…sejuk hati bila tingat kat jiran aku ni….kira sesama penat la kitorang nih.


Idlan Farhan

Abang Idlan mmg sayang giler kat adik dia…bila adik cry, dia akan tlg pujuk adik..baca selawat, kadang tu nyanyi lagu Nabi-nabi…lawak pon ader hehe. Kadang kena marah kat aku sbb dia ckp kuat time adik tido…sori yer sayang….bila mama penat, tu la jadiknyer..susah nak control marah nih. Time pantang ni, aku notice dia makin rapat ngan pruzz…yela tido pon ngan abah. Mama sibuk entertain adik jer….kesian dia. Rasa guilty bila difikirkan, hopefully dia faham suatu hari nanti. Habis pantang nanti, kite gi jejalan ok!

Okla…dah panjang banget nih….ni pon tulis byk kali hehe….so next time kalo ade masa lagi aku sambung. Gamba akan menyusul sehari dua lagi. Leh cek kat fotopage nanti....

Alhamdulillah, lega dengar. Despite the up downs on the equity sector due to our country's political instability, my fund is still performing well (partly due to the much-stabled oversea investments).
Local stocks are picking up now, nevertheless I'm still waiting for a right time to go out.
Some took the opportunity to sell to avoid further losses, however i still believe and hope for a good
turnaround in long-term.

Patience is the key :)

Oppss sape nak tambah investment, bley la calling2 saya/Pruzz ok. Honestly now is a good time to pour money for additional investment due to the market's downward trend...harga tgh jatuh, buy now and you'll get more units for the fund.

counting time

My neighbour next 2 door is supposed to deliver a week later than me. But she requested to gynae to induce her on this coming Friday for she could no longer bear the persistent backache and whatnots.

To be frank, i am so jealous of her.

Her baby is going to share the same birthdate with me.

ohh adik baby....don't u want to come out on that day as well???

I do hope loads of meetings scheduled this week will put some 'trigger' to the cervicks :p

04 August 2008

1] Akibat kelam kabut dgn amendment yg disubmit last minutes, dgn org yg baru dtg install pc, ke hulu hilir ke meja ofismate sbb nak pinjam visio dia…aku terlanggar thumb drive hingga dia kemek, terbelah dua & bengkok. Bila test open file…daaaaaaangggg…file can’t open. Hangin satu badan rasa. Dahla byk benda dicopy dlm tuh sbb all this while bekerja menggunakan laptop ofis. Makanye hari Jumaat lepas diakhiri dgn hati yg sgt tensi. Thumb drive tuh hadiah dr pruzz…zaman dolu2 nyer 128mb harga RM100++…sgt mahal time tuh :p

Mlm tu kat umah, tak puas hati lagi….kucuba godek2 balik dan akhirnya….alhamdulillah berjaya jugak laptopku read file2 dlm tuh. Settle masalah! Tapi still takleh tutup sbb dah pecah…so jadikla begini rupanyer hehehe

after 'direpair'


2] Beg sekolah baru yg sgt besar …ditukar dgn J-card points. Excited benar dia gi school pagi nih :)


3] Dan ni...kes ngidam last minute….semakin dekat nak pop out makin byk plak benda yg teringin nak makan…ish ishhh

28 July 2008

mixed entry

- MBA is officially over after submission of the final xm yesterday :)

- Last antenatal check up, everything is ok alhamdulillah. Gain another kilo in 2 weeks, which i LIKE!
Adik baby weighs at 2.8kg, position-wise ok. My gynae gave a booking form, asked me to bring it around wherever i go. I asked her for the 'tanda2 bersalin', and she smiled n explained in lenghty. This will be my 2nd baby but bear with me, i never had the chance to experience contractions and whatnots during idlan's time...so am truly an amateur in this delivery thingy. Bila difikirkan..takuts!

- Sent umi to KLIA early in the morning yesterday for she'll be performing umrah. She's due to come back on the 7th. Macam biasa, idlan is all excited upon reaching the airport...dia mmg suke gi airport :p Wearing the umrah group's name tag, running here n there, tarik tgn nek umi dia ke situ sini...manja banget! And when the time finally arrived for umi to depart, as expected scene drama swasta berlaku :p Idlan siap tanye kenape mama ngan umi nangis? spontaneous aku jawab..."mama berlakon jela!" Dia pon jwb balik..."hish apela mama ni main berlakon2 pulak!"

- Go grab the latest Pa&Ma...it covers lots of interesting articles, most of them are about breastfeeding. Ada this one mama who stocked up 260 bottles of EBM during her 2-mth confinement period. Adus what an inspiration!

24 July 2008

Jalan jem teruk pagi ni....semua gara-gara warga negara Malaysia yg nak bershopping di J-Card day Midvalley.
Dengar citer pukul 7am dah bukak pintu...hehe dasat sungguh!

Saya bersenang-lenang di ofis...antara sebab2 kukuh saya tak join mereka2 semua itu adalah:
- kerja opis yg banyak
- budget takder (well nak swipe cc bley jer, esok payday bley bayar terus, tapi ahh lupakan!)
- rasanye mungkin tak larat nak bersesak dan berhimpit dgn mereka2 yg gagah dan aggresif,
kalau saye pitam ke pengsan ke, sape nak tolong? tak ke menyusahkan org jer :p
- Pruzz tak bley cuti...maka tade sape nak tolong bwk barang

Cuma 4 jer yg dpt difikirkan, tapi kira kukuh la tu kan!

Walau bagaimanapun sedikit sebanyak terbit perasaan jeles di sudut hati ini...
apetah lagi bila terkenang handbag carlo rino version baru yg indah tersergam di rack itu!

Tapi takpe, J card berdekatan rumah saye bakal menanti bulan Oktober nanti...muehehehe!
Dan sape tahu harga handbag tu akan sedikit jatuh time tu?? :)

Oct 2006-July 2008

Finally the long awaited misery classes and assignments have come to the end. We’re unofficially an mba grads now! Hehehe
Unofficial’ since we’re yet to submit our final take home exam and assignment by end of this month.
It’ll become 90% official once we submit everything by 27th July.
And 100% official once we walk up on the stage to receive our scroll, scheduled on March next year.

Whatever it is, I’m the happiest person on earth at the moment. I am stress-free, enjoying every bits and moment as time passes by. What’s more, adik baby is growing healthily inside, now weighs approximately 2.54kg, I gained a kilo more since the past 2 weeks, I can jump into bed every weekend to enjoy my afternoon nap like the good old days in MMU, and most important of all, my family gets me back :)

To B, I can never thank you enough for all the support given, be it moral, physical, mental dan sebagainyer :) It will never reach to this far without you being on my side all these time. Nanti mama blanjer buffet eh :p And also to my umi, the very special person in my life who never say NO whenever I asked for her assistance to take care of my 2 babies at certain times. To my beloved Idlan Farhan, though you may not understand it now, mama loves you so much, for being a very good n obedient boy whenever I leave you under abah’s or nek umi’s care. And thank you for your understanding, for the time lost and not spent with you whenever mama was busy with assignments and whatnots. To adik baby, mama guess you also need a special dedication since you’re behaving very good inside my tummy, causing mama no nausea at all throughout the pregnancy. Harap2 bila besar esok jadi pandai tau sbb sama2 join mama dengar lecture dlm klas!

To my 3 special friends, this mark the dissolution of Sapphire (in memory Oct 2006-July 2008), nevertheless friends forever okeh!!!


the 2 chaps in front are pilots :p

the 'baby boomers', yet one of them is top scorer tau!

Ada org tanyer, lama tak update blog bz ker? :p

1] First thing, masuk tpt baru...biasala byk benda kena blajar. Agak blur, dan terasa sgtla lembab otak ni nak terima benda baru. Lucky bos ok and baik hati (kena amik hati bos ni kot2 dia baca hehehe)...kena ajar satu-satu...harap2la otak aku ni cepat pick up

2] It wasnt that bad travelling to Annexe. Surprisingly in terms of km lebih kurang sama ke cyber. Jam pon kurang, masih sempat dpt parking free kalau kluar rumah 745am. But i make it a routine to go out as early as 730am to avoid bad traffic. Yg beza cuma tol jela..tu pon dah kurang 1 tol sbb zarid dah ajar 'jln rahsia' hehe.
So far masih larat drive...takdela cramp ke ape ker, harap2 larat la sampai saat2 terakhir nanti :)

3] Class is nearing towards the end. End of this week will be my final class! It's going to be a take home exam this time, due on 27/7. We already had the paper in hand, unfortunately none of us is able to answer all the Qs...still in the dark, still digging up here n there to find the clues huhuhu.

4] Went to My Dear warehouse sale last week in Puchong. He's still in my tummy, yet a new stroller, car seat, play gym and whatnots already await ahead. Such a lucky baby :) Shopping sakan sampai tercabut sandal pregnant aku...sabor jela. Skang gi opis pakai sandal 'rugged'...nak beli flat sandal baru cam malas, lepas pregnant bukannyer nak pakai balik :p
