Help!!!!!!!!!

The past couple of days have been hell for me. A day before my b'day I was down with a viral fever. Had high fever and was burning hot sampai my tongue cracked + with ulcers everywhere. Body was aching all over. Mann.. I think it was like the worse viral fever ever! On the same day, Amir was puking like nobody's business and had a high fever as well. We were all scheduled to go back to Kuantan for Sarah's cukur jambul and sis in law's wedding the next day. So you can just imagine the commotion.

We were in Kuantan for a couple of days. Cukur jambul and wedding reception went very well. Will post some pics once I get hold of 'em. Balik je I already have to start working even though it was a public holiday. Hmph..I've got events to handle together with my team back to back till year end. Tak cukup dengan events, Madam Cenc decided to have our department's team building next month at Slim River! We're supposed to be camping in a jungle for 2 days and also go for white water rafting for 2 bloody hours!!!! O by the way, the jungle has no phone signal whatsoever. Am trying to escape but at the moment belum dapat ilham lagi nak kelentong aper.. Help!help!

Finally .....

Finally got the raya pics from my bro.. Amir was in almost all of the pics.. :p here are few of the pics..for some reasons I can't upload that many pics.. or maybe I just dont know how to.. so more will be posted in my FB..

The four of us

Amir yang memang tak suka any affectionate gestures..

Arrghhh.. tensionn...

Amir and Ilman --- this is when Ilman was still in a good mood

Nothing much

Have not been properly blogging. Been so damn busy. Have got events lined up back to back till year end. This Monday I've got a launch to handle with my team. Only had about 5 days to work on it. Crazy.



Did u watch 360 on TV3, 2 days ago? Don't really follow the show but I was having dinner in front of tv and could not b bothered to find remote to change the channel. Anyway, the topic was about Sugar Daddy and Sugar Baby..apparently too many old farts in Malaysia are into Sugar Babies...they interviewed a Sugar Baby who has a boyfriend but is going out with another guy for money, the son of a Sugar Daddy who is doing his own college mate and the general public. Not that the show was that interesting lah. In general we do know that these things are happening around us.

But what got me so mad was at the end of the show the reporter asked the Sugar Baby.."So apa pesanan you kepada isteri2 di luar sana" and she replied "Pesanan saya..jagalah suami tu baik2..sebab kalau tak jaga yang diorang akan carik orang macam kita. Kita pun nak carik kasih sayang.." yadda..yadda..yadda.. Wow..total disrespect to your own species.. if you were in front of me I would have slapped you so hard all the way to Turkemistan okay. You've got no proper marriage, kids to take care.. nak bagi pesanan camtu ye..

Gotta go..Sarah's crying.

Life's little miracle..

I got the news that an ex-tkcian fren of mine punya baby was in crtitical condition at IJN. Little baby Darius is just a few months old and had a lot of complications since the day he was born. Being a mother I'm now extra emotional when it comes to these kind of things..the whole day yesterday my tkc yahoo-group was full of flying emails on updates of the baby's condition.. the last few emails said that the baby had passed away.. I was really saddened by the news..had I known about all these earlier I could have gone to IJN after work to visit mother and baby..

BUT thank God... it was just some confusions... this was the last email that I got about little baby Darius from Zetty J..

Salam & Hi,
Ok, here's the REAL story ok...Fydd's son, Darius Yusuff Zariq was on life support machine the last 48hours before 10am this morning (10.8.08). There are 7 types of heart problems and Darius had 5 of them AND pulmonary hypertension which normally happens to a 70-year old!Even the surgeons @ IJN thought Darius's condition is rare i.e for a 2-month old to have a heart like a 70-year old!

Anyways, at 10am this morning, the surgeons had to switch off the machine, ortherwise it could damage Darius's other internal organs.After 10am, the surgeons did some last procedure on Darius to see whether his heart can go on w/out the machine. So, after approx. 2 and a half hours, the surgeon came out and told the parents that Darius seemed to be ok.
His heart was pumping but still very weak.

It was a miracle!!!Darius is still under 48-hour observation in ICU now. If he survives the next 48 hours, he'll live, insyaAllah. Darius's parents are in good spirits now. Very much relieved that the 1st hurdle is over. Let's pray that they'll come out well the next 48hours, too.So... To all you girls who've been confused with today's "passed away-survived" email, I apologize.

That was the info I got and immediately told everyone so everyone can together say their prayers for the poor boy. I didn't know about the procedure after the life support machine, not until I got to IJN. And the fact Darius pulled it thru that procedure, was just a miracle!Even his parents were redha to let him go, and kinda make arrangement w their local masjid, already! So, yeah... Hope this settles the confusion.

Seriously I can't imagine if I have to go thru such dugaan.. my prayers for Fydd and little baby Darius..

Raya

aiyaa..after the raya hols it's extra hard to get back into the blogging groove.. not that I have that many things to tell pon.. this raya I think is more about relaxing at home with family and melayan the little kiddies.. I got my baju raya just one day before raya..1 which I actually bought at Jalan TAR on the eve of raya.. I could have probably bought more if my telinga could tahan my other half mengomel about my last minute shopping spree and the selection that I made looked like real pasar malam bajus.. but seriously I thot some of the bajus at Jalan TAR were okay and definitely much better than the ones at Sogo/Bukit Bintang..

I did check out Mayfair design..loved all the bajus but was way too expensive.. ada ke patut one plain top aje dah RM 400 tak masuk kain lagi tu.. camtu baik gi order baju kat Rizalman aje.. tapi sape yang nak try shopping kat Jalan TAR on raya eve make sure don't bring any kids and be prepared to brave the crowd consisting of 60% Malays, 30% Indons and 20% Banglas..

Will post some raya pics soon..only my bro's camera was in good order during the salam raya.. I had planned for a proper family pic to be taken on the 1st day but photographer not available.. the kiddies cute giler dgn baju raya.. we even managed to get a tiny baju kurung for baby Sarah.. 2nd day of Raya we all went back to Kuantan..Amir was all dressed up in a pink baju melayu with samping and songkok..tapi belum pun lepas karak he puked on the baju and my other half's new and very very expensive watch...so sampai kg je kena mandi pastu pakai t-shirt biasa.. kurang hensem sket lah..

Other than that raya was just the same lah kot.. haven't even counted the kids' duit raya yet.. nampak cam byk je.. for all I know I could be more miskin than they are right now..

Pre-Raya Commotion...

When it comes to procastinating.. I am the Queen... this is one bad habit that has been haunting me since school days.. I know it is a bad habit, but somehow I'll still do it! That explains why my car, office desk, room are all in a mess --- I know I'm supposed to clean it up -- but I procastinate. Today, I sent a kain which is supposed to be made into a baju Melayu for my other half.. I've been having the kain I think 2-3 months back..kononnya nak carik a good tailor.. could have sent it much earlier riteeeee? but noooo.. I had to wait until 5 days before raya to send when the price will be higher and tailor ada byk baju nak settle.. but fret not..it's not for raya lah.. it's supposed to be worn during my sis in law's wedding on the 24th of October.. thank God I found a tailor ---Dzul De Classique -- am assuming he's good sebab dia ni rival Man Kajang, nama pon lagi ayu --- and the baju will siap on the 22nd of Oct..hopefully it fits him well..kalau tidak sure aku menggelupur tahap gaban sebab ada one day je nak alter...

Today everyone was already in the raya and holiday mood at the office.. from morning till about 2.00pm sume org including Mdm Cenc was in a good mood UNTIL ------- the volcano erupted!! When I walked into the office after lunch at 3pm (already menggelabah takut Mdm Cenc nampak) her PA whispered to me that Mdm Cenc is in a VERY VERY VERY bad mood --seriously.. dia cakap VERY 3 kali okay.. and Mdm Cenc was looking for me at 12pm and at 3.40pm there will be a meeting with all the mgrs.. sounds pretty serious I thought.. belum pon sempat panas bontot Mdm Cenc called me.. Die la I thot! Some more on my table ada an email she printed for me with a note saying that my Mailbox is full.. ini memang pantang tok nenek dia..tapi nak buat camno kan if while I'm gone I get so many big emails..

anyhow, I went to her room lah.. her hair yang baru rebonding cam terangkat sket kat blakang--this only happens bila dia garu kepala dia kalau tgh stress..muka berkerut..uwaa..die la..die la..of course she membebel about my mailbox being full tapi okay pulak..boleh gelak2..she was happy with the Fortune Magazine Q & As..she just wanted to let me know that she made a couple of changes and I'm supposed to tidy it up to be given to the CEO..phew... still I was anxious to know why she had called for an emergency mtg with the mgrs..

In the meeting ---- Mdm Cenc informed that something happened today that made her want to lempang some people..mak aiii..sampai camtu skali.. Suspen nyer..Apparently Mdm Cenc made some claim for a dinner organized by the department as she had used her own money first..since she will be going for cuti on Monday, she asked one of the staffs to check whether the claim has been setlled..when she said check, she meant to check with the Finance Department lah.. but the staff who had access to a particular system yg boleh check org punya account instead check thru the system -- this means he had access to view all transactions made in her account even since dinosaur years.. to him it's normal..sometimes I do the same thing..to check claim dah masuk ke tak I or utang credit card ada berapa, I would ask the staff to check sebab malas nak gi counter.. but the difference is that I give the permission..I authorize it.. In this case, she was not in the know.. and she being skema, never knew that this had been a practice in the Bank. Memang sepatutnya if the owner of the account tak authorize it as a banker memang lah tak boleh sesuka hati bukak. Even kalau parents, spouse mintak check pon tak boleh. Unless dapat court order ke.. BPR dtg ke..

Well, everything would have been okay had she not found the printed statement! Tu pun secara tak sengaja..she was printing something else..skali gi kat printer dia terjumpa statement dia kat situ..tak ke dia naik hantu! ok, to cut the story short, she was really pissed!I can't remember how many times she said to us that she was pissed..apa2 hal pon lebih 10 kali lah.. she called the staff..ada 2 staff yang involved..sorang tu dah sampai nangis2 kena maki..she asked the managers what she should do..she said kalau dia buat camtu kat her ex-boss, our ex-CEO yg known to be very the garang sure dia dah kena resign 24hrs.. tapi kitaorg kata jgn lah sampai camtu.. the 2 staffs tu memang baik and very hardworking..niat diorang baik..nak buat keje cepat utk dia..last2 after ceramah 1/2 jam she decided to give a show cause and warning letter...and since she's away on Monday, I was supposed to sign the letter on her behalf sebab I'm the only manager yg tak cuti next week.. gile.. tak kuasa nak sign..told her to settle it b4 she goes on leave. Tapi I can tell you lah.. sure hidup staff2 ni takkan aman lepas ni... sian lak kat diorang.. dah lah nak raya..but in this case, Mdm Cenc has the rights to mengamuk lah.. manalah tau kan kot dlm account dia ada 1 million ker.. tak pun ada 0 balance ker..

Anyway, after the commotion, we all pon siap2 lah nak balik..it was already 5 mins to 5 pm.. masuklah email from Mdm Cenc mintak maaf banyak2 kalau ada tersinggung or terkasar bahasa.. ye..ye..saya maafkan.. saya pon nak mintak maaf sebab banyak ngumpat.. tapi okaylah tu..rasanya dah banyak pahala puasa saya bagi kat Mdm...

I'm in my hari raya mood too--despite realizing that I actually don't have a baju raya lagi--- see...look what happens when I procastinate..hubby and kids all got new baju raya.. tomorrow I need to buy yang dah siap punyalah for myself..

People, Selamat Hari Raya & Maaf Zahir Batin.. Drive safe!
