New Power Tariff effective 1 June

Hm..guess most of you heard of the news last nite on this..As consumers, we will have to pay 2.23 sen per kWh more electricity equivalent to 3354 cent per kWh effective tomorrow due to revision of gas prices for power sector..The news said that 74% of household will not be effected if the usage is less than 300kWh or RM 77 a month..

Are you included in this 74% group or otherwise? As for me, looking at my previos bill, obviously I'm not in this group..aiyark..first thing came across my mind - how to save the usage of electricity. I recall tinidewi used to put one entry on this..lets check it out over here

Image as usual from Google!

Read them? Besides that, I heard over the radio this morning, among other things that we could do to save the electricity

1. Avoid using air-conditionar - Thank God we only have on at home..but it's really difficult for us not to use them especially during hot season.

2. Off the switch of electrical appliances when not in used and also pull off the socket from the switch - Err..rarely do this..can start practise this one ya asz

My own version:

1. Switch off the lights and fan when not in used - got to remind my kids and maid cause they have this habit - always forget to switch off the lights especially after they leave the toilet

2. Plan the usage of waching machine - my washing machine works everyday, and most of the time the usage are not optimise since we separate kids clothes with ours. Of course the maid's ones are separated. May need to buy extra clothes for my maid so she can just wash hers once a week. Anyone has extra t-shirt to donate? Please do so..heheh

What else? If you have any other tips..please share yah!

Quotes of the Day...

Was chatting with a friend of mine this morning, about relationship..and because of that reminds me of this famous quotes:

Image from Mr Google..

Well, to me..if we love someone, do not hold them so tight, that could make them 'suffocate' and thus try to get away from us..they need some space for themself too..but also don't hold them too loose, cause they tend to get away from you..when they feel there's not enough love and attention..so better hold them just nice..or like people said "biar sedang-sedang aja.." hik hik hik

 

Tests results = Fail!

Yup, I fail my test..as a mom today..:(. And serve me right, the result was so obvious that my son's teachers knew about it..

I've been asking myself, how could I have not aware that today is the report card collection day for my first son. Poor him, as he was the only one arrived at school today. We noticed that no other students were there when we arrived,  it was not that early..so that was when I knew that today is the report card day..and the best part.. the notice was given since Wednesday! More hearbeakingly, the teachers kept on mentioning.."poor Azeem..poor Azeem.." :(

Ya ya, my fault..I was the one who didn't check his school bag this very week..I was so focus on his sister's exams that I unnoticely forget that I have another son who is also schooling..:(

Admittedly, I found it difficult to give undivided attention to all my children at one time..Isn't multitasking is given to all women so we could do more than one thing at a time..how could I have not utilised that gift?

I just don't want him to experience the same that I had before as the middle child..

Transgander..

Was having our dinner last 2 nites when heard over the news that a man seeks for change of his name to that of a woman. To me, this indicates that he has gone through change of gander, and changing his name on the IC seems to be the final step towards transforming himself to a women..

Image from The Star online. Details of the news here

That reminds me of what been thought during last Wednesday class on one hadith as follow:

Three groups will not enter heaven forever: Al-Dayyus, al-Rijlah from women circle and alcoholic. They asked: We knew about the alcoholic, so whom Al-Dayyus? The Prophet answered: those who does not care who enter to family member. We asked again: What is al-Rijlah? Prophet answered: woman that resembling man. [Hadith Al-Tobarani]

Ustad explained, that the same goes to man that resembling woman..they will remain in neraka forever..astaghfirullah..I am not sure what would be the 'hukum' in this case..As human, we have no rights to judge people..whatever it is, lets avoid such as I'm sure we don't want not being able to enter heaven forever..

MLM

Was blog walking and found out that this interesting topic..I never trusted MLM..dunno why since I first understand basically how it works, I just don't like the concept it operates..

My first understanding on basically how MLM works happened when I was still in primary school, when my parents were introduced by a relatives on this concept. If I remembered correctly, during that time they were already the stockist of the products, I couldn't remember exactly what they are. Of course we were pretty excited to become like them..well at least I was. That relatives of ours arranged a session, whereby a guy explained to my parents and I joined them on how MLM works..u know all the downliner and all.You what was the first thought came to my mind? Isn't this concept kind of abusing especially to the downliners? Those at the bottom got to work real hard to sell while those who are at the top simply enjoying the hard work of others? Ever since, I never trusted the concept of MLM..So that was how I made up my mind that I don't like MLM concept.

Image googled

Nevertheless, having such believes since then doesn't mean that I have never been involved in MLM, my husband and I did..we were both young, just married and were easily influenced by a friend to join MLM on a health products which were priced at RM 200++ per bottle. As normal, those upliners convinced us to invest more than five digits with sweet2 promises that they will do all the selling, while what we need to do is just to invest the money and find our downliners..As you can guess, the stocks stucked with us, and we never get our money back till now..so obviously we were the victim of this business concept!

Lesson learnt! There's no such easy money in this world! It requires hard work to earn every penny..I'm sure some of you must have not agree with me on this..but if you earn from MLM by selling products more than finding downliners, that is not so bad laa..otherwise, I'm sorry, I couldn't agree with you..

There's so many other ways to invest rather than MLM..they are just not for us..no no..

This Wednesday Morning..

This morning, I got to drive on my own since Mr Hubby is expecting that he's gonna be late, and my colleague whom always give me a ride home will not be available today..If I were to drive, I always choose to leave the house early, hoping to get free parking at the office, but rarely put such high hope coz normally even if I leave home at 7.00, the free parking is already full by the time I reach office around 7.45 am.

So today, I left home at 7.00, by the time I turn to the federal highway, I got a sms on my phone from hubby - "Your wallet is left at home". Hmm..my reaction..to be honest..no feeling..normally I will easily get panic..of course la no money, how to pay the parking? my breakfast, my lunch? What if I got caught driving without license..Somehow this morning, I was like kind of redha..I pray to Allah to ease my way, as I believe Allah is giving such a simple test this morning. I leave it to Allah to determine my fate this morning..

Image - Thanks to Mr Google!

At the same time, I checked the money we left in car for tol purposes, alhamdulillah, got RM 1 notes x 7 = RM 7, just enough for me to park outside. So I decided not worth to turn back home. Even if the RM 7 parking is full, I still got extra coins in the car, another RM 1 would be sufficient to park next to Plaza Pantai..lunch? breakfast? No choice but to lend it from colleagues of mine..

So what happened? Alhamdulillah, got to park my car at the RM 7 parking. By the time I reached office, I told a colleage what happened, and so she lend me her money for today.. Alhamduillah..Thanks K. SHA for your kindness..only Allah can reciprocate your goodwill..:D

World is the Assessment Platform…

 Understand the meaning of the title? I bet you are..to those who still didn’t get it..direct translation is “Dunia ini pentas ujian…”

Yes, as a Muslim we all know this fact right? This is a temporary world for us..death is definite..akhirat is the eternal world that we should be targeting to live happily ever after for…Heaven should be our final destinations..

My hubby shared with me on Friday prayers khutbah last week that we should be clear of our destinations. As such we should choose the right path to get there. It’s like travelling, if you want to reach Johor, but then you get a ride on Perak’s bus, you will definitely not reach Johor for sure..so same with us, if our destinations is Jannah, then choose the right path, otherwise….I guess you know the answer..

The recent landslide incidents at the orphanage, amputation of a volunter at the scene and death news of 25^th mommy who given birth are among the events that remind myself that all these are examples of test Allah put on us as makhluk. Test could come in two ways, either in the form of convenience or hardship. Hardship is easier to pass, but convenience..people tend to fail..why? because we always fail to remember Allah when we are at ease, when we are wealthy, when we succeed..right?
<> 

Image - googled

Ustad told us during the ugama class, that when we are in hardship, it is actually the sign that Allah loves us. When Allah loves us, he put more test on us, make our life difficult all because Allah wants us to always remember Allah. Oppose to us, human..when we love someone, we tend to give everything to the one we love..very simple example..to our kids, we tend to buy things that they want isn’t it? like PS3, handphones..laptop..didn’t we realize that they actually love those gadget more than us, when they spend more time with them as compared to the time they spend with us when there's no gadgets?

Aren’t we as parents want to give them the best they could have in this world? If your answer is yes, then give them the Islamic knowledge..we should be more worry of them not reaching the heaven rather than some other things in this world..

Am writing this, not to say that I’m really religious..to be honest I am not..I’m writing this as a reminder to myself..and hope this could benefit you as well..

Tanah Runtuh - Rumah Anak Yatim di Ulu Langat

Feel that I need to jot down about this incident after listening to Hot FM on the way to office this morning. Satu lagi kisah menyayat hati di negara kita, since it involved the orphanage..Got to know from my FB friends, that pengusaha rumah anak yatim ni is actually his project manager, which indirectly means she's  a colleague of mine..in the same company..and lebih menyedihkan, anak dia turut menjadi mangsa korban..and also over the weekend, dapat e-mail dari company, ada 2 org rakan sekerja turut menjadi mangsa..one of them is in critical condition. Sedekahkan Al-Fatihah kepada 16 mangsa yang telah pergi menemui Ilahi, dan doakan yang terbaik kepada mangsa2 yang kritikal..amiinn..

Semoga kejadian ini menjadi pengajaran kepada kita..ini bukan masanya nak menunding jari, siapa yang salah siapa yang betul..selalunya bila berlaku kejadian macam ni, keluarla cerita rumah dibina tanpa kebenaran lah, tak ada CF la dan sebagainya..sebaiknya, focuskan kepada mencari penyelesaian dan bagaimana nak membantu mangsa2 kejadian..

Secure and Safe Home

Ever since we moved to our own house last 5 years, I noticed we never put any alarm system to the house as security measures. With theft and house breaking cases increased recently in our housing area,  I am putting a serious thought of setting up at least a basic alarm system to the house. How I wish this house was bought with alarm system built in..but during that years, it was still not in trend where developers do such packaging when they sold the house..

ADT is currently on promotion until Sep, well well..this is really a good timing for me to make up my mind fast..should I consider others or should I just grab this promotion opportunity? Some more, got the chance to win RM35K worth of prizes! For more details on the promotion, click here

RM 1 cent is back?

Saw my friends status this morning in FB on this..so I search the web, see if it is out in the news..yes it is..or was it out in the night news yesterday oredi? hahah..obviously I didn't watch the news..ye la..busy with my cooking in the kitchen...

So folks, what do you think of this proposal for reintroduction of RM 1 cent in the market? To be honest, first thought that came to my mind..I just don't understand the rational..previously, it was claim that with the demolishment of 1 cent, is somehow contributes to saving..(am I right to understand such?), and now, the reasons is to help people due to increase in goods prices due to increase in sugar and petrol price..err..does it really helps?

Somehow, it is true, tho the value is small, but if you buy things in a bit volume, it does make a difference..as for us, the consumer, I don't think we would be buying up to 1000 unit of things at one time right..to enjoy the difference of 1 cent x 1000 = RM 10? It may make a difference for wholesaler tho...as they are the ones who buy things in bulk..

Aiya..am I that naive to understand the rational of this 're-appearance' of 1 cents? What do you think peeps?

Tinidewi May 2011 Giveaway

Yeszaa..tinidewi is organising another giveaway for this month..I'm trying my luck once again..a second time around..insya-Allah if this is my rezeki..I win! Otherwise..it's OK, I'll participate again and again until I win..can aa cik tini?

Educators..

Or simply known as teachers, are someone who not just teach us at school on academic matter but more than that..believe it or not, they are among those who influence our life very2 much..and career as a teacher is a very2 noble ones..especially if you teach how to recite Al-Quran..Ustazah is also a teacher right...masya-Allah they will gain 'pahala' as long as those who been taught practised them..makes me wonder why didn't I go for teacher as my career..hehe..I know..I'm not the patient type..a aa..no no..

Teachers' day brings my memory back to my primary school days..I remember, a teacher..I could not recall which one, asked us to come out with a poem in English about teachers. I misunderstood the explanation from the teachers on poem, that a poem has 4 verses. We are supposed to compose only one peom, but I understood that to 4 poems..hahaha..How do you expect I did it?

Of course I could not do it on my own..I was only in Standard 2..my vocab was still limited, and of course my English was not up to the standard that I could create a poem..(Err..even now my English is just so-so..hahah)..So I asked my mom to help me out..but my mom was not able to help me out..so I cried! Hahaha..Yes I cried!

Looking at me like that, my mom finally got and idea. What we did, we actually asked our neighbour's son to help me out with the poem..Sungguh tak malu..See..mom will do anything to help her daughter. Love you mom! You are the greatest!

To cut the story short, the poem becomes the best poem of all for my class..hahahah..I guess the teachers must have known, it was not originally come from this student of hers..hahah..I wonder what my teacher did with that poem..I didn't recall whether I still keep it. As far as I remember, it was a good one..of course la..the writer was a Form 5 students..hahah

Picture thanks to Mr Google!

By the way, hope it is still not to late to wish all teachers out there Happy Teachers Day! Heard from the news there are few new benefits that the government is offering to all teachers..A good news indeed..!

Having maid vs Maidless

Been wanting to write about this after my entry on hiring full time maid, but I decided to hold that for a while. I need to find the right time for me to actually analyse and monitor progress of my maid until the time comes where I feel comfortable to discuss about this. Ye la, she is only with me for almost three months, so still early for me to judge and conclude the good or bad having maid.

That changed after I went to a ugama class 2 days ago. I decided that I am not going to list down the pros and cons of having maid..

The topic was actually on zikir. One of the points Ustad touched was that with zikrullah, ones shall be in peace and work burden will be at ease. Rasulullah SAW thought his daughter Fatimah to always zikir to Allah everytime before her sleep as this is better than having a khadim to help her with her house chores.

Ustad said that it is actually not wrong for us to have a maid to help us with the house chores, but it is wrong if we depend so much on her instead of depending to Allah. Because she is human, and she may leave you at any time. You know la kan, there’s so many run away maid cases in this country right? But Allah, will always be with us as long as we always remember Allah and always depend on Allah instead of other makhluk..

It makes me think back again and ask myself is it me that is not strong enough (because not always zikir to Allah) to handle the responsibility as a employee of my company, as a wife to my husband and a mother to my children that I need a maid to help me at home? Now that I have a helper, do I depend so much on her instead of Allah?

The questions made me realize that, I do not and never depend on her 100% to take care of my children while I’m away at work, but actually I dependent a lot to Allah..Alhamdulillah..Everyday, insya-Allah without fail, I will pray to Allah for the safety of my children, and that my maid will take care of my kids and love them as she loves her own children. Now that she is around, I have time to do some other things that I should have done every day like cooking meals for the family, spend time with kids on their homework..and the most that I appreciate very2 much is that now we have the opportunity for jemaah prayers for Maghrib & Isyak together and also Quran reciting session with the kids. I have always been my dreams that I would like to teach my kids on my own for reciting Al-Quran, and TQ Allah for giving me this opportunity..Alhamdulillah, Allah have shown me and ease mye way.. Syukran Ya Allah..Syukran..

What I’m trying to say here is that, it is not wrong to have someone else to help you out with your house chores. (We are not superwomen..but if you are capable of handling everything on your own with full dependant to Allah,  wow! that would be the greatest!) Most important is the intention of you having them to your family. As for me, my intention is for me to have more time spending with the kids, and not to forget my hubby who requires my attention and love. Having maid in the house doesn’t mean I have let go everything to her, but instead I could contribute more to the family..

No doubt having maid means you have additional responsibility towards her and may have more headache with her behavior..to be honest, I faced that already on the first month when she arrived. I don’t want to mention it here..It also means you may have to spend more for her food and stuff (sometimes not always). But again, I always return back to Allah and ask for Allah guidance..if her existence in our little family is the best for us, then open her heart to work with sincere heart..otherwise show me the best way to send her home..That’s why it is important to set your ‘niat’ right, depends on Allah 100% and insya-Allah , Allah will ease your way..

From Allah We Came, to Allah we Return

Innalillahiwainnailaihirojiuun..

Most of you must have heard or read from the news that Allahyarhammah Datin Orchid Abdullah passed away yesterday at Ampang Hospital. Al- Fatihah to Allahyarmah..

I chose to jot down it here because believe it or not, our path crossed last 12 years, only once. The first and the last.

It was all because my parents were not able to send me back to the hostel one of the weekends.  My room mate was kind enough to give me a ride back to hostel. Little did I know that her aunt is actually sending her back to the hostel..and so happened that her auntie was actually Allayarhammah..We didn't chat so much in her car, cause I was kind of  a reserved person..and of course a shy ones..hahah..yer right!

What makes me still remember the situation was because, on the way back to hostels, she got to drop by a wedding, to sing a few songs before she can send us back to hostel. Little did I know that the wedding is actually at my grandma's neighbour's house..what a small world..I got the chance to see my grandma for a while, while she was performing..

Those are the memories, flashing back to my mind when I heard about the news of her death..May Allah blessed her always..Al-Fatihah..

My last entry is gone!

Uwaa...just realise that my last entry is now gone! Not even in draft mode..! It's really not easy to jot them down again you see..it would not be the same! Uwaa..ok enough about that. Try to put them again next time..

Waa..White iPhone4!

Do you guys know iPhone4 now is available in white? I just knew..hahah..Waaa..I so loike! Nice! Nice!

Previously, I craved for HTC Desire White..but somehow, no rezeki to have one..and now iPhone4 is available in White! Alamak..how aa?

Need to know details? Click here..I already had..:D

Yesterday in History..

Yesterday marks another history of our little family..two important things happend yesterday..so it  is a must for me to jot it down over here..

1. My first boy faced his first exams or should I say his first test yesterday. As his mama is not so serious about the education for this 4 year old yet, we have not done any revision or any particular preparation..hehe.. let me put in this way lah..his mama wants to test the water first..see how much he absorb from his schooling days the last 5 months..hahah..if the results not good, mama have to be in the action..hahah..alasan!

uik..mana hilang gigi abg ni?

2. My little boy, was on his first 2 steps yesterday! Yehaa..finally, after quite some time, he finally discovers his strength to make his first step..Mama is very2 proud of you dear..among all, you are definitely ahead of you bro and sis. Lets move on to more than 2 steps shall we?

Our Mommies' Day...

How was your mommies day celebration yesterday peeps? As for me, I would say this is the first time I ever celebrated mothers day celebration for myself as a mother..I mean celebrate in the sense of having a special occasion…after being a mother of 3 that is..better late than never eh?

By the way, what makes it more memorable is that I didn't just celebrate them with our nucleus family, but rather it was celebrated with 2 other great mommies, hubby’s good friends’ wifey which now become good friends of mine..:D

It came out as an impromptu actually. These friends came over to our house as a normal visit, after the last visit which was on last Sep to our little cottage. It’s been that long, so that’s the main reason they came over. Just prepared a simple menu for dinner..as we had our tea with home made cucur udang after 6pm, decided to have a light dinner than. So we settled with fried mee and sate as main dish, supported with fruits and nuggets.

Suppose my hubby was the only one to buy sate for the guest, but then the other daddies insisted to tag along, so all daddies went out for sate, leaving mommies and kids at home. I guess that’s the time when daddies decided to buy a cake for mommies. Well, it came out as surprise to me.., but not other mommies. I understand later that the other mommies actually hinted daddies for cup cakes before they left..hahaha..you know la some daddies…got to give some injection, then only they can figure out what to do…

Mommies' Day Cake from Daddies..TQ Daddies!

As normal, kids are more excited to cut the cake..

By the way, a mommy is missing from this occasion, as she and family went back to her hometown. So daddies, this must be an annual event ya..perhaps a planned one next year..better still if there are more surprises..hahah..demanding mommies! Again thanks daddies for appreciating us mommies!

A good day indeed as kids were having fun playing, mommies have got space to chat, daddies as normal drown with their gadgets and not to forget, the maids got the opportunities to gossiping while tending the babies!

******************************************************
Oh on another notes, here are my conversation with my daughter yesterday:

Kakak: Mama, mai la sini kakak nak bisik
Mama: Apa die?
Kakak: Mama, bole tak esok kasi kakak seringgit ke sekolah?
Mama: Kakak nak buat ape?
Kakak: Kakak nak beli bunga tuk mama kat book store sekolah..

..oo present for mama, kakak buy but mama pay for it ek? it's the thoughts that count..thanks kakak!

Mothers' Day Special

Been wanting to share this all of you..very2 nicely written by a mummy from the bottom of her heart, who I categorise as a very2 strong ones. Tho I only knew her from this cyber world via her blog, I always admire her spirit and strength (vividly express through her writing) in dealing with her grief of losing her only daughter..may her angel rest in peace there in heaven perennially..amiin..

So to all mommies out there, Happy Mothers' Day..Tributes to all mommies..

"Who should I give my love to?
My respect and my honor to
Who should I pay good mind to?
After Allah
And Rasulullah

Comes your MOTHER
Who next? Your MOTHER
Who next? Your MOTHER
And then your father..."

Masa first time dengar lagu ni dulu...mummy belum khawin..
Time bujang-bujang dulu.....
mummy pun rasa mcm sumthing wrong je..
Kenapa asik mother, mother je...sampai 3 kali mother..
Kesiannya jadi Father...
Kita pun sayang juga kat ayah kita... Abah kita..
satu-satunya abah kita...
Ayah pun berkorban kasih juga untuk kita...

Tapikan, lepas jadi mother baru mummy paham..
Kenapa mother selalu di tempat pertama...kedua dan ketiga...

Dengan kata lain...
Bila dah ada anak baru faham sifat IBU sebenar...
Memanglah semua dah tahu...pengorbanan ibu..tak boleh dinafikan lagi....
Ibu Mengandungkan kita..
Ibu Melahirkan kita....
Ibu Menyusukan kita......
Ketiga-tiga perkara ini.. ayah tak boleh buat... tuhan dah takdirkan...
confirm ayah tak boleh buat...so tak boleh lah nak compare ayah dan ibu...
Itu yang tersurat...

Sebenarnya ada yang tersirat...kalau kita kaji-kaji balik...
Ibu istimewa bukan sebab boleh melakukan 3 perkara itu...
Ibu istimewa kerana ibu memang seorang insan yang istimewa...
Apa yang kita ingat tentang kita dan ibu hanyalah sedikit...
Memori paling lama yang kita masih ingat pun, hanya selepas kita masuk sekolah...

Masa tu kita dah separuh 'independent'...
Boleh sikat rambut sendiri..
Boleh mandi sendiri..
Masuk tidur pun sendiri...
Semua dah boleh buat sendiri.....

Tapi kita tak ingat...
apa yang ibu buat untuk kita masa kita kecik-kecik...
Bukan kita lupa..kita cuma tak ingat...
Kita tidak ingat..... kerana masa itu kita masih kecil....

Kalau dihitung kembali...
memanglah kasih ayah sama nilanya dengan kasih ibu...
Kasih kedua-duanya tidak berbelah bahagi.. untuk anak...

Tapi ada yang kita tak tahu sebelum kita jadi ibu....
Bila kita jadi ibu barulah kita tahu.......

Yang...

Ayah pun pernah sikat rambut kita...
Cuma ayah tak tahu rambut kita 'belah' ikut mana...kiri ke kanan ke..
Main sikat je... Kadang-kadang macam tak sikat je..
Tapi rambut ayah elok je berpacak tengah .. :P
Kalu ibu sebelum nak pergi sekolah tu...
10x sikatkan rambut kita...
Dulu-dulu time kena kutu pun...
Ibu je yang selalu spent time dgn kita...mencari....hihi.
Betapa seronoknya ibu..bila dapat tangkap kutu...

Ayah pun pernah suap kita...itupun kalu pernah...
Cuma ayah jarang amik tahu makanan kegemaran kita...
Ayah cuma tahu tanya..dah makan?? ibu dah suap ke?

Ayah pun selalu belikan baju kita...
Cuma ayah tak tahu... berapa pasang baju yang kita ada...
Baju mana nak dipadan dengan seluar mana...topi mana...
Skirt mana dengan top mana?? stokin warna apa??
Main sarung je...

Bila kita sakit, Ayah dan ibu bawa kita ke Klinik..
Tapi cuma itu yang ayah tahu...
Bila bab makan ubat... ibu yang suap...
Pukul berapa, makan ubat ibu yang ingat...
Tengah-tengah malam ibu yang terjaga, dan rasa dahi kita...
panas lagi ke dah suam ke??
kalu dah sejuk baru ibu boleh tidur....
sebelum tidur ibu selimutkan kaki kita...
Kesian ayah penat kerja...tidur je...
Eh? tapi ibu pun kerja...:P

Bila pergi makan...
Ayah tanya ibu nak makan kat mana?
Ayah kata jom pergi Gulam Mee sana...
Sana ada Char kueh teow sedap..Udang banyak..
Tapi ibu diam je...Blurrrr tak tahu nak cadang kat mana..
Sebab ibu tengah pikir...
Untuk anak nanti... nak order apa...??
Ada menu yang sesuai untuk budak ke??
... ada sup ke..?? ada bubur ke?
Ibu selalu pikir untuk kita dulu..
Untuk ibu takpe...apa2 pun tak apa...

Waktu makan pulak...
Ibu suap kita dulu...
Apa-apa pun selagi kita tak kenyang..
selagi itu... Ibu tak makan...
Kita pulak buat perangai taknak makan..baling sudu..baling garfu..
Ibu sabar...masih nyanyi-nyanyi..pujuk makan...
Ibu tunggu kita habis hingga ke suapan yang terakhir..
Bila ibu nak makan....Nasi ibu dah sejuk..
Tapi takpe..ibu tak kisah sangat ...sebab ibu dah kenyang ...
gembira tengok anak makan tadi...
Kesian ibu...

Ayah selalu tengok kita...
Ayah tengok dengan mata...
Dan selalu nampak kita comel...
Tapi kenapa, ibu yang selalu nampak kita comot ?? ...
Sebab ibu tengok kita dengan hati...
Sebab itu ibu selalu simpan tuala dalam beg..
Untuk lap mulut kita... untuk lap tangan kita..
Untuk lap peluh kita.. untuk lap airmata kita...


Bab poo poo lagi.. selalu buat ibu-ibu resah...
Ibu yang tahu satu hari kita poo poo berapa kali..
Lebih-lebih kalau sepanjang hari kita tak poo poo..
Ibu duk tunggu je kita poo poo...
Bila poo poo, ibu siasat pulak jenis poo poo...
Lembut ke keras ke... cirit ke..sembelit ke..
Kesian ibu...
Ibu tidak minta dilahirkan begini..
Tapi sudah ditakdirkan ibu sifatnya begini...

Semua yang remeh-remeh ibu buat..
Semua yang remeh-remeh ibu pikir...

Sebenarnya banyak lagi contoh...
Tapi tak sampai hati nak share kat sini...
Takut kena saman kalau ada ayah-ayah yang terasa..hihii...

Ayah tetap ayah..Ibu tetap ibu..
Ibu mungkin boleh ganti tempat ayah...
Tapi ayah tak boleh ganti tempat ibu...
Sebab Ayah juga pernah ada ibu....
Dan ayah juga tahu dan sedar akan ertinya kasih ,kehidupan, dan pengorbanan seorang ibu.....

Bukan nak rendah-rendahkan ayah..tapi inilah hakikatnya..
fikiran ibu melangkaui fikiran ayah apabila melibatkan anak...
Bersyukur dilahirkan untuk jadi seorang yang dipanggil Ibu..Mummy..Ummi...Mother.

Never been to studio or outside for photo shoot for our family before..should I or shouldn't I..? At least for the kids tho..

A friend of mine used to tell me, that one day I will miss those days when the kids are still small..those cute little eyes, those sweet smiles with only two teeth and pony tails (for girls of course)..she was fortunate cause her husband is diligent enough to snap her kids photos especially on special occasion..so whenever she misses her little kids since then, she got all the photos for her to journey down the memoryland again..

Considering myself as the non-nostalgic type, I never put a serious thought for this kind of session for my remembrance, as for me, there are other more important things in life rather than spending money for the photo shoot..hahah.....Most of you must have objection on this..but hey, there’s no right or wrong when it comes to what is your priority in life..

You must be wondering what makes me put some thoughts on this now..let me share with you why..It is because there’s mad deal of the day – only RM 47 for Baby/Kids Studio Portrait Package instead of RM 315. A great offer indeed! Now, I don’t mind spending for the photoshoot!

So folks, as they said, “That kid of yours ain't gonna stay cute forever ;)”. Hurry grab this opportunity! Click here for details of the package..

Floral Week

I would say last week was 'flower week' for our unit..could see quite a number of desk having a new pot of flowers including myself..well well I would say was greatly influenced with my colleagues eagerness on flowers ..what could I say, ladies are very synonym to flowers..

It’s all started off with the bazaar organized by our office building in conjunction to so called ‘pay day’ and ‘bonus week’.  There is one and only stall selling flowers, I would say the first of its kind here. Most of the time we could find stalls selling hijab, ladies & kids clothes and food which is very2 typical. I would say this one is unique for this time around. That explain the ‘flower fever’ spreading in our office floor..hehehe.

This fever does not stop on the ladies desk only ya peeps..we spread it up to our VP’s office – a guy of course..heheh..no no, he didn’t buy it..no no no..of course not..we bought  him a pot of flowers instead..don’t get him wrong ya…They are pretty aren't they?

Each and every one of us put our signature on stickers and stick them to the stem..it's a symbol of our support towards him..isn't it sweeeet? :D

For your info, the name of the flower is "Allium". As I interprated from wikipedia, it is sort of onion species but produces flowers..and most of the species have onion order and taste..Allium  in Latin means garlic..

Well see..gain new knowledge from this floral fever week..so it's not just a normal flower obsession..:D

Oh by the way, this is mine..:D
