Phewwww!!!

Finally! D event which would practically determines my KPI for the year is over! Forget about the other 20 events that I've organized so far.. if I suck at coordinating this one..then it's PMS 0 for me with a bonus of Madam Cenc hounding me for the next 10 years babeh!




Before the event I was worried as hell.. this is me waiting for 2 kontinjen yang tak sampai2 even though Menteri dah 5 minit lepak kat holding room.



Solemn -- bacaan ikrar to kickstart the event...


B*N's kontinjen.. we won the perbarisan.. kena boo like crazy! Frankly I didnt think we deserve to win either..but we probably won because we had the cunnest Ratu Placard.. hehe


Kudos to B*N's Polis Bantuan..kawad gempak giler and received standing ovation.. I heard they practiced day and night to make sure that it's all perfect..


One of the highlights.. These kids are just superb.. they have even performed in Italy and Taiwan.. Amir totally loved em.. now almost everytime nampak lap top he asks me to pasang the video of these kids main kompang... so nyet I think he does not want to be a footballer nor a kickboxer.. dia nak main kompang okay!




Officially launched!



Phewww..baru boley lepak...

and smile for the camera... hehehe

our very tired looking cameraman who was pestering me to blanja satay.. :)


I think this had to be by far the most pening event.. not because it's such a biggie.. but because it's just so tiring to layan the requests of the big bosses who are concerned about their big bosses at the Ministry... I'm very thankful that I had good people in my team.. of course adalah jugak bickering among us but it didnt compromise our commitment to ensure that the event is a success.. lepas kena blanja makan satay after the event sume orang terus okay!

Of course..there's still the closing ceremony on Saturday that I have to think of.... But I think it's less of a headache than the launching... :)

Hi Babah! Some news from home..

Hi babah..

Not sure if you have time to read this amidst your busy schedule.. shopping..facebooking... etc..

How you doing? Best ker Chiang Mai? Banyak aweks ke? Datuk ngan nenek kata aweks kat sana tak cun... I jauh lagi cunnnn... muahahaha..

Anyway, just to let you know that we're all okay.. kunit until today ingat you pegi beli vitagen tak balik2 lagi.. hari2 ajak pegi mall but I don't have the time ler to bring him around this week.. Last Sunday ingat nak bawak dia jalan tapi sian plak kat datuk ngan nenek nak balik kg tapi takde orang nak bawak.. so, kitaorang pun gi balik banting.. luckilly Kunit was in a good mood throughout the day.. happy giler dapat kejar kucing kat rumah Uncle Bahari..


tengokla muka 10c kunit ni.. tak larat giler nak layan dia merengek mintak dukung..

As usual.. Sarah mengganas..

Yaya is okay too.. skarang kalau nak bagi dia senyap memang kena bagi makan... yesterday she experimented and for the first time managed to duduk sendiri.. tapi position cam lawak sket.. ari ni konon nak try lagi tapi tak boleh.. malam asyik terjaga and blasah kunit.. since saturday kul 5 pg je dia bangun.. I was so damn tired on Saturday after the event and she woke up at 5 to play! Today tak dapat lari from office and bring her to see Dr Asmuni..maybe tomorrow night.


Since you're not around, takde orang nak tolong kunit bila kena blasah dengan yaya..
Kunit tension giler..


Ni kunit tengah eksyen cap baru which datuk n nenek bought kat Bangkok's zoo..

Babah! You better come back in one piece and with good stuffs for us!! Vitagen jgn lupa beli..kalau tidak dah tak boleh pakai line tu lagi lepas ni..
Take care!
From Malaysia with Love
Mama, Kunit, Yaya

Flowers for me?

Someone apparrently read my blog and had sent me flowers at the office.. must be you people..hubby or one of my friends? tak letak nama so I would not know who.. anyway, if you're reading this, thank you so very much! :)Lagi best kalau bunga tu ada chocolates... Ferrero ke... huahauauuhauaua

What have I become?

The other day when playing with Amir, hubby said something that made me realize what a boring person I've turned out to be.. we asked Amir who he loves more.. Mama or Abah..and hubby said Amir should love Abah more.. because more rewarding.. Abah has everything.. Mama has nothing.. i.e Mama has no hobby..no interest..in other words Mama is no fun lah.


So then.. I thought if I'm no fun to the kiddies.. then I'm no fun to my friends..hubby..colleagues etc? What have I become? Madam Cenc in the making? Madam Cenc pun buat Qi Gong pagi2 pukul 5 and go to theatres or movies..

Truth be told.. the last time I probably did anything remotely interesting for myself would be the teambuilding program.. sad aint it?


Hobbies..interests.. of course I have! I love watching movies..TV..used to read a lot..enjoy hanging out with friends on Friday after work..do lunch with ex-collegues..go to facial or spa treatments at least once a month.. go swimming.. But now do I have the time, partner, friends to share hobbies and interests= 0..zilch..nadda.. I bought Dina Zaman's book like 3 months back but I'm still at pg 30! The last movie I watched was Transformers?






I guess this is why I've become someone sceptical..moody..jealous..easily irritated..insecure.. whatever else lah.. and seriously I don't like it at all! If this goes on I can't imagine what I'll turn out to be in the next 5..10..20 years.


Who should I blame for being this way but myself.. yeah...with family, kids, work I can always complaint that I don't have the time.. but if I really want to surely something can be done...compromises must be made..so from today onwards I will start making some changes to myself.. my routine..my life.. I refuse to be uninteresting.. I detest being lame and boring..



I'll start small.. like today.. I kemas my car before going to work.. decided to dress up extra..not the usual B*SN's standard of makcik2 dressing.. pakai bedak and sikat rambut betul in front of the mirror instead of just kelam kabut kat dalam kereta.. :) and it made me feel good..lunch will be with an old friend later.. I thought I'll try something new with hubby and kids as well.. even if it looks as if I dah buang tebiat.. :p


Not sure until when I can keep this up.. kadang2 I'm also prone to be "hot hot chicken shit"... but something good is always worth trying right..especially if it's for the better!

Surrrrppprriiiseeeee!!!

The next time u hear that I'm planning a surprise, please grab me by the hair, bang my head to the walls and scream in my ears: "Jiji! You suck at it!"

It was hubby's b'day yesterday. With the kids, work and busy schedule..we hardly have a time on our own except for the last couple of weeks because we had to car pool since his car is in the workshop.. so, I kinda acted on impulse and thought spending some quality time together just the two of us would be a nice surprise gift. But of course since nama pun acted on impulse I didnt quite do my homework right. To think that in my resume I can boast that I've been handling events for the past 5 years...when comes to planning own event, hancusss..

Lessons to learn:

5. Not everyone is a romantic idiot like you.

4. Consider that he could be dead tired having to work till late night. A good rest is what he needs.

3. Consider what he likes. This surprise should be all about him, not about you. If you can't find a common ground, choose something he'll love.

2. Make sure he's got time off. Especially when planning a stayover. Even schedule for the next day matters.

1. And most importantly : Make sure he's the type who loves surprises. No point if he is not, right?!

Somehow despite being together for what... 10 years already.. when it comes to buying him something it has always been something not quite what he wanted.. So in future to lower the risk of feeling like an idiot.. for the next coming birthdays/occassions I should probably just stick to giving him gifts and of course anything to do with Barca will never go wrong.. :p

Day 2 - Jungle Trekking



Had good breakfast before leaving.. nasik lemak sambal sotong...


My team!



That's me in front..yang tertonggeng naik atas pokok tu.. jgn main2 I lead the way...



Air terjun.. this is supposed to be our reward before heading back the same way... so much for reward lah kan.. dalam air pon ada pacat!

I was in agony throughout the journey..one hour of trekking through the thick jungle which had thousands of pacat!!!! I think I collected no less than 50 pacats okay. Seriously! Thank God it didnt manage to squeeze itself into my baju or pants.. but my shoes..socks..kaki..tangan... semua kena serang! The only motivation was to just finish the journey and be surrounded by more humans than insects or animals.
