My new ride...

When I was in secondary school, my dream car was a yellow vitara...masa kat Uni I had wished for a Civic bullet tu...but since the day that I got my licence to drive, I've been a loyalist of the Proton family... Proton Saga..Proton Satria..Proton Waja..

I have collected my long awaited b'day gift... and I totally totally lurrrrrrvvvvvvvveeeeee it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry peeps..had some probs downloading pic from hp..so terpaksa mengoogle..

Don't you just love the colour? It is just apt that orang pembersih like moi to get this colour kan... ;)

Thanks Nyet..I promise you won't find any karipap 3 minggu in the car....

Pain in the neck

It's 3.30am..I'm tired but I can't sleep..My neck is bloody painful..This has been going on for 2 weeks already..the first time I felt the pain, I could not even move my head..but I thought it was just like salah tidor ke apa..went to see the dr and she thought the same too..told me that the pain would go away in a day or two..gave me an MC to rest, some muscle pills, calcium and painkillers..

But it's been 2 weeks now and it's not getting any better.. sometimes I would even experience dizziness..if I take the painkillers memang rasa tak sakit langsung and I could move like normal..so if at the office, I really have to take the pills or else I won't be able to get any work done..but I'm trying to refrain myself from religiously popping the painkillers..like cutting it down from 3 times a day to 1 time a day... the last thing I want is to be dependent on painkillers to function...

Somehow after what had happened to my brother, I've got this phobia of going to the dr..it's like, really..I don't wanna know if it's anything serious..so instead I've been googling to find out about the possible causes and ways to reduce the pain..although I found some cool stuff such as these,

Some of the info is just as scary as that trip to dr...like having to go for an MRI scan...injections..surgery... am giving myself one more day...if still sakit, then I guess I have no choice but to see the dr.. :(

Hong Kong.. Acheh.... can I survive?

Looks like it's confirmed! Got that phone call from GIFT today to confirm the details for them to arrange a flight to Medan and Acheh.

I have not gotten the full itinerary yet. But I was told that I'll be in Hong Kong for 7 days..and then off to Medan for 1 day as well as to take a flight to Acheh... I would be in Acheh for 7 days..

I'm excited but fairly nervous about this trip.. I know I would be miserable without the kiddies for 14 days --- no offence nyet..I would miss you too.. but I would go bonkers thinking about the kiddies.. not hearing Sarah say good night to me and having her cuddled next to me... or Amir calling himself my pipipipi (ni gelaran manja that he gives to himself when he wants to be like a baby)...My boss said that this would be when I would realize that the bed is actually huge without the kiddies... :)

And history has proven that I would just get homesick like madddd... when I went to Germany years ago, the minute I checked into the hotel I was already in tears and calling my parents at home...and I don't need to tell about my zaman tkc lah kan...

I'll be going with two men whom I've specifically asked to be my designated bodyguards. I dropped them an email today...

Hello my fellow travelling mates..
I know we are going for this program for the benefit of the Bank... but please promise me that we will not forget to have fun!
p/s: I nak jugak jejak kaki kat Disneyland!

I know that this would be a really good experience for me.. I mean..to be part of an actual project that will help the people of Acheh... how could it not be exciting and meaningful, right?

I just hope I'll survive the misery being away for home... tsk..tsk...

My moment with the First Lady

Last week Yayasan Harapan Kanak-Kanak Malaysia expressed their interest to feature the kiddies' paintings at one of their events, the Children Public Speaking Competition (PM's trophy). We jumped on the idea as we thought it would be good mileage for the kiddies and of course the Bank.


Event was held at Dewan Siantan, Putrajaya Holdings with our First Lady as the VIP. Since the Yayasan people had an ESQ program for 400 kids running on the same day, we had to do the set up on our own. Rasa macam senang je nak tepek gambar kat board tapi actually memang leceh giler... lagilah nak make sure paintings tu tak jatuh or even the board tak collapse when 400 kids rush out for makan.






We put up 2 displays panels so there were about 30 paintings that we featured..






Announcing the arrival of our First Lady.. dunno why.. but I was nervous to be at the presence of the First Lady... that's En. Nazri, Yayasan's CEO explaining bout the paintings... if I were the First Lady I would have gone closer to the paintings and at least show a lil' bit of interest... I'm sure our previous First Ladies would have done the same... hmmm...






That's Dato' Atikah Adom with her... she is a legend at B*N...used to be B*N's Corp Comm Director.. now she's her Media Advisor..

Since she did'nt get close to the paintings we had to think of Plan B for at least a good photo for the Bank's record. We decided to try and get her to sign on the description of the project after she officiates the event. Bought a marker pen and searched high and low for a ribbon to be placed on the pen.

Yes, that's me hijacking her from the crowd.

Woohoo! She signed it!

We took a picture with Dato' Atikah so that we can paste it on our walls and picture ourselves in the next 20 years... hehehe

Heard a lot of stories about how 'warm' and 'loving' our First Lady is.. this is just my 2nd time seeing her like right smack in front of me.. so I can't really judge... but I hope she would smile more... learn the tricks from Dato' Atikah who is ever so friendly... :)

Adult and Baby Shower

From Wiki: Traditionally, a baby shower is held only for the mother-to-be, and only women attend. The original intent was for women to share wisdom and lessons on the art of becoming a mother. However, men are also starting to participate. Many people choose to have baby showers for both parents, and some people have a men-only shower. Traditionally, baby showers were given only for the family's first child, but over time, it has become more common to hold them for subsequent or adopted children. Even when a shower is held for only the first child, it is not uncommon for a parent to have more than one baby shower, such as one with friends and another with co-workers.

We threw a surprise Baby Shower for Azah. Walaupun Azah membebel sebab komplot dengan laki dia for the surprise.. I guess she was happy.. :) Hey, you girls never threw one for me ok..anak dah 2 dah ni... :p

Yang diraikan...

Turut diraikan.. It's gonna be a boy and the name will start with the letter 'S'

Owner of the crib..

Home cooked food (inclusive of my satay kajang ;) ) and Edi's lovely cupcakes..

The one who managed to force the guys to play baby shower games... :)

Amir who was at this point still clueless of what would be done to him..

The father yang mengelat and used the son as his victim..

Yoppie came too!

The girls..err ladies..err makciks? ..

I don't care what they say in Wiki! If I get preggy again, you peeps better plan a baby shower for me! :p

Azah, we pray that you have a safe delivery and 'enjoy' every single moment of being a mother! :)

Cuci The Musical

The Corporate Affairs team went to catch the show last week. We had fun! I was skeptical that it would be a good show because I find the movie to be a lil' bit boring. Didn't even watch it sampai habis when it was shown during raya. But The Musical was superb! Maybe it was our luck to have bought the tickets on the night that our Deputy PM and Information Minister were also among the audience so the casts probably worked extra hard to ensure a good show.

Can't remember the last time I laughed that hard..sampai kluar2 air mata!

Go watch!



Tickets were hot selling..we were seated 2 rows in the middle, 2 rows from the stage..

Main casts - Awie and AC rocked the house!

All the casts...

*Point to note: Blurry pics sebab gambar curik2 ambik.. :)

A belated entry

Happy Birthday to me!

In the morning I got these..thanks Nyet for the lovely roses and Sally/Kama/K.Arida for the yummy famous amos cookies in a cool jar which I can put in my not-so-new-house..




In the afternoon I gave myself a good treat without feeling any guilt..

At night..sorry no pics of dinner at home with the family.. lupa nak ambik...

Over the weekend, the girls gave me a surprise b'day cake @ Azah's baby shower.. actually macam dah boleh guess ada the surprise cake because Ija's son, Daniel kept on saying bila nak makan cake... :)

On Sunday, I invented a new Italian dish --- Kerepek Lasagna! Sebab still tgh b'day mood I thought why don't I give my family a treat... so I tried out Nik's lasagna recipe (Nik makes really yummy lasagna, by the way)...tapi in the end we had steamboat for dinner...sebab lasagnaku walaupun baunya best and rasa pun sedap tak cukup moist from the bolognese sauce agaknya so jadi keras macam kerepek!

As for the b'day present...huhu...tak sampai lagi!!!

Thanks all, for the b'day wishes!
