Fening dan lain-lain...

Pening kepala la pulak pagi ni. Manataknya... makan macam tak hengat... sahur td, makan Big Apple nye donut sampai 3... salah satunya yang mocha tu... nahhh padan muka... sekarang kefeningan yang melampau, rasa nak muntah pon ada. Dahla puasa, so, taklehla nak jolok anak tekak, so that rasa mual ni lega sket... alahai Maz, janganla buat mender camni lagi. Menyusahkan diri je :p Almaklum berat dah turun balik, nak menambahkan lagi ke? Ohhh tidak, baju raya yang ditempah adalah lebih kecik dari biasa... so kalau nak cantik dan tidak nampak seperti bungkusan nangka, baikla beringat dan berpada.

Malam tadi buat majlis berbuka kat rumah. Sesuaikah guna perkataan majlis? Bolehla kot... Walaupun tetamunya cuma 5 orang, tapi meriahla jugak. Irdina la yang paling happy sebab ramai orang layan... Setiap orang yang balik tu ditangisi... ehehehe... tambahan pula, dapat RM20 duit raya, apalagi :D

Bangun tidur pukul 10 pagi terusla mama Irdina sibuk di dapur, manataknya Irdina meragam, sebab kurang layanan dari mama... tak boleh buat selalu ni... malam dia jadi takmo tidur sebab nak main dan bergurau dengan mama... kena marahla pulak sebab mama dah mengantuk tapi Irdina asyik nak ke komputer sambil menjerit, "abah, abah"... padahal abahnya takde kat sebelah sana, cuma skype je masih on... takpe sayang ye, nanti raya, 10 hari bersama babah inshaAllah.

Oh ye, berbalik kepada kes memasak... menu berbuka semalam adalah:

1. Ayam masak lomak cili api - licin... waaa bangganya, kali pertama buat and Malino kata SODAP!!! Cili besar 5 biji, cili api 10 biji tetapi masih juga tidak pedas... mengapakah? Cili sekarang banyak yang dah mutant kot...
2. Telur sambal goreng
3. Kerabu mangga
4. Sayur midin masak belacan - inipon LICIN...
5. Agar2 - yang ni beli je, itupon tak abis... yang berlapis santan tu cam basi je rasanya... kuih semalamkah? ermmm...

Segalanya bermula dengan kedatangan isteri Sheridan, Linda ke Miri buat kali pertama, tambahan pula keinginan Misri nak makan masakan rumah... alahaiii...

Misri tanya Syeka and I yang tengah berborak kosong... (more or less la, tak ingat scr exact)

Misri: ehhh u all masak tak kat rumah?
Syeka and I menjawab serentak, "Masak"
Misri: Kalau masak, sekali sekala tu hantarla kat rumah.
I: Alahhh kesiannya. Tak masak ke?
Misri: Selalu beli je. Aritu beli kat Bazar Ramadan petangnya, masa berbuka dah basi... Dahla dah tumpahkan kuah ke nasi, sikit je lah yang boleh makan"
Alahai sedihnya rasa... bersyukur sangat walaupun lakiku jauh, tapi pandai je dia carik makanan... lagipun kat KL senang nak makan... dan, ada gak orang yang sanggup mengaut keuntungan macam ni kan? ada yang menjual lauk kelmarin, ada yang masak sambil lewa sehingga mengabaikan aspek kebersihan... ermmm...

Maka, dengan semangat dan azam yang berkobar2, maka berlangsungla aktiviti memasak dan makan2 yang pertama (selain dgn Shairel la tapi) setelah aku bergelar isteri dan ibu. Seronok tengok Sheridan + Linda, Malino, Misri + Housematenya makan sambil berborak2 dan melayan Irdina...

Penat... tapi seronok... kalau Sepu ada lagi seronok... and lagi kurang penat kot, sbb ada yang layan Irdina main, so dia takla dengan sengaja menumpahkan air minum sampai mamanya kena mengemop lantai 3 kali dicelah2 aktiviti memasak...

Birthdays...

Yesterday was Mama's birthday...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM DEAREST...

and today is Kak Nor's birthday...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAK NOR... Thanks for the cake...

Semoga dipanjangkan umur, dikurniakan rezeki yang melimpah ruah, serta dalam rahmah Allah sentiasa...

Reunion in KK

For post about the reunion, click here.

I think i know why...

-1-

I know why am i not feeling very happy today despite the fact that today is my birthday... The manpower report came in yesterday afternoon, but i have only got the chance to read through it this morning... Can i move to KL in this condition?

Recession recession go away... never come again even for a day!

-2-

Some small things people do today really made my day...

My colleagues were preparing for a surprise birthday party next door when i came in. They were really surprised to see me at the door and seem to be at lost of words. I talked to Dave without realising that there's a cake on Abg. M's file cabinet. And suddenly,

Syl: Sharifah, you should have not came in now, we are in the midst preparing for a birthday party for you.

Me: Ohhh...

I was dumbfounded, and we all laughed really hard.

Me: I didn't notice the cake actually Syl, and have just about to leave the room... you have blown your own secret.

We celebrated my birthday... at the office, for the first time. Thank you guys... am really lucky to have all of you as colleagues...

-3-

Bought chocolate cake to celebrate with Irdina at the BS' house. At least, this birthday, i dont feel too lonely. I could celebrate it with my friends and so called family. Fatihah would be very happy to find the cake upon returning from scholl, i bet!

REUNION

Had mini reunion with my PMA friends at TOPSPOT Seafood Centre, Bukit Mata Kuching on 08-05-09 at 8.30pm… Only six of us (Haja, Rudy, Red, Nina, Me and Liza - order as per the photo) turned up for the dinner, while Bedul arrived when we were planning to leave. We ended up having another round of juice and coffee to accompany him, and had another session of laughter.
It was good to have the opportunity meeting old friends… Liza and I had never lost contact since we left school, so as Nina. We (my parents actually) have been living on the same street for more than 25 years.

I like reunion… especially the ‘REMEMBER WHEN’ talk…

MOTHER’s DAY CELEBRATION

Would it be too late for me writing this entry today? For me, everyday is Mother’s Day, as there’s not a single day when I don’t think about my daughter. We have always been together since day 1, never been apart. Separation makes the heart grow fonder, so it was said, but I do believe that even when together, mother’s love towards her child keeps on growing. A child will always be a baby in her mother’s eyes, no matter how grown up she has become. Mother would always want to give/do everything she could for her children…

Enough said… here are photos taken during our Mother’s Day celebration in Kuching.

My grandmother cutting the cake before cue... Irdina eyeing the cake... she's one of the first to taste it (she insisted)...


4 generations - my nenek, my mother, my cousin (my generation, i was busy taking the photo), and my daughter...You're the best nenek...


To all mothers… HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY… EVERYDAY!

Aedun is now somebody's fiance

6 of us (includes Babah, Mama, Dedek Emejay, Dedek Ina, Irdina and I) went to Kpg Sejingkat, on Saturday, 09-05-09 to 'meminang' our beloved brother's 'buah hati'. It was not that formal, as the girl's family opted for a simple 'ceremony', so did my parents... so, we did not prepare 'dulang hantaran' as per the Malay customs, we did not do the 'berbalas pantun memetik bunga di taman' session. But instead, we did it our way, and hopefully, for the wedding, i could do more for my brother, our way - SIMPLE yet MEANINGFUL...

Thanks to my sister Emejay for accompanying me to do the shopping - last minute, on the day itself... and for guiding ways in Kuching (i am still well versed with the roads, but not the shopping complexes - where to find these and thats)...

Here are some photos taken:

Our side...
Their side...
Babah signing the Watikah Pertunangan...
Linda's uncle signing the watikah on behalf of her family...
Cincin di jari manismu... (mama's doing this for the first time)
The Pembuka Mulut and Tanda Bertunang
The Cincin Pertunangan... (bought the day before the ceremony)

To LINDA, welcome to the family...

Alone in the office... (2)

I am celebrating my 2nd day without anybody else in my office, including Shuk. 2 more freedom days to savour.

I have been very busy today... plus no more FB at the office, my day alone becomes a bit boring... Thats the reason of this blog entry. Not that i dont have much in my plate right now, but this entry is rather a platform for me to communicate (this room is so quietttt)...

What should i talk about... ok, lets talk about my plan for the weekend... ermmm... with Sepu coming, there will be lots of jalan2 for Irdina i hope... thats it? Jalan-jalan? Anything else? I'd be very busy maintaining 2 babies, thats for sure... what else?

About my diet regime... I have lost 7 kgs as of today... 3 months passed and only 7 kgs? This is through controlling of what i eat alone... If i exercise, i am sure i could lose more... ehehehe, iyaka ;) ? I have one more month to go before the grand reunion in KK... Hopefully this month marks a rapid plunge in my weight, another 7 kgs maybe? erkkk... I wanna look good in those reunion photos... wuaaa... please!

I have not chosen any dress to wear to the reunion yet... What i have in mind is to make one new outfit... raya is not that far away, so, this so called baju kurung moden for the reunion will not come to waste (hopefully)...

Cant wait to meet oldfriends... faster faster 5th June (faster faster weight lost as well ;) )

Team meeting & Haj Farewell

Had team meeting in the afternoon with some makan2... also Boss' farewell (wida')... he's going for Haj...

Our first team photo (complete numbers)

Things…

HAVE NOT COMPLETED THIS... WILL DO LATER!


This entry would be narrating on things happening from last Saturday to date…

Irdina and I went to AZ’s open house and here are some of the photos…


I really love to eat… ermmm… that’s the reason on these ‘spare tyres’… but somebody told me that I have ‘gone down’… meaning that I look slimmer than I used to be… ermmm… (side tracking a bit)…

After AZ’s house, I thought of going to Kak Shimah (Wa Ham)’s place, Mi Dawi’s Usu Masni’s and Usu Rani’s… But I managed to go to only Usu Rani’s house as all the other houses looked like they were not at home… Usu Rani was not home actually (he’s in Btu), I was ushered in by the wife and the 2 daughters, plus one grandson.

Coming home near maghrib and Irdina with lots of red spots of mosquito bites on her body, we remained at home until the next morning watching TV and then sleep…

Kak Nor's Open House

Went to Kak Nor's open house at around 7... Didn't eat much... still full from the birthday party just now...

Irdina met new friends there, and one of them is Nathan (he's mixed Malay-Mexican)...



Here are some photos of the food...
the infamous laksa sarawak

the kuah of course...

nasi 'yellow'

ayam kurma

kari ayam

masak lemak mix-vege

dessert... caramel pudding...

Aiman Faris 1st Birthday Party... 4pm 12/10/08

Irdina has just came back from Aiman's birthday party...

and here are some photos from the event...





Maintaining the hat on Irdina's head was peanut... she just ignored it...

Guess what she's doing right now?

Open house at Aunty Waty's house on Saturday, 11/10/2008

Had an open house invitation yesterday... we went there with auntie Shairel and Humairah... Lots of people attended the occasion and we met few people, and surprisingly some of our neighbours in Kuching [same Kampungla]... some we have not met before while for one family, we met them at Miri airport on our back to Kuching before Hari Raya, baby Anina and parents...

Here are some photos of Anina (7M), Humairah (9M 5D) and Irdina (9M 1D)... look at baby Anina... she's not only bigger than the other 2 sisters, but she's more active... i mean, really active... adorable!

Mama took 15 minutes to get Irdina ready... especially the hair...






Irdina's hairdo BEFORE the open house...

Irdina's hairdo AFTER the open house, sorry no photo to show the missing hairclips...

Happy Birthday to the Most Busybody Husband in the World... ;)

Happy Birthday to you...
Happy Birthday to you...
Happy Birthday to Sepu...
Happy Birthday to you...

30 tahun, 30 tahun, 30 tahun umurnya sekarang...



I LOVE YOU... :-*
