Proud of my young girl dah Khatam Quran at age 9. Kalau kita dolu dolu, Darjah 3 tu masih ramai yang dok ngaji muqaddam lagi...
Budak2 sekarang terima banyak kebaikan dan kesenangan. Semuanya dah mudah.

GLORIANS 80's Gathering at Yam's place
Jawatankuasa pengelola... orang2 kuat. Paling Kuat adalah Mariam sebagai tuan rumah yang telah menyediakan tapak, hidangan lazat & surrounding yg menarik sekali.
Antara yang hadir.... Ramai juga yang balik awal atas sebab komitmen lain yang lebih memerlukan.
Then bilang ada berapa jumlah jari semuanya.KELAKAR! Tak pernah di buat orang.
Itulah antara aktiviti kami sewaktu Glorians 80 get together baru baru ini.
Last Saturday (7/11) I drove down to Bukit Kapar to join the celebration of our 29th year after school, at Yam's place. The preparation & setting were splendid! Really appreciate & salute the committees- they've done an excellent job.
Our Batch theme colour is orange, so the tent & tables were also decorated in orange & white. It was really obvious from far.There was a PA System & a hired DJ as well.Wow! Never thought of that...
The DJ would announce each arrival... (Macam laluan ke Red Carpet pulak). So everyone will be aware. Macam2 reaction received, ada yang too excited to see each other sampai terlupa nak greet tuan rumah dulu.....hahaha....
There were games for the children, sessi melawat ladang kambing- lead by Uncle Molor (Yam's brothers are working on the farm known as Teguh Ternak Sdn Bhd). The kids were so excited & I can see that through their sparkling eyes.
There were also good food ie: nasi lemak, stew + bun , pasta, puyuh goreng , kambing bakar, ayam bakar, kuih muih & etc....
Lepas makan, sambung dengan sessi teh tarik pulak sambil sembang & makan lagi tanpa henti.
Wow! Best! Seronok betul dapat jumpa kawan2 lama masa sekolah yang duduk bergurau/berbaik/berkelahi etc selama 5++tahun di boarding school dulu.
Tn Hj Dharma sponsor each of us an orange tshirt with tag line- "FRIENDS FOREVER".
We love that tag line..... A good outing for the weekend.
THANK YOU EVERYONE!

AIDILFITRI
I'm so.... lazy to write nowadays....
The fasting month had flown so fast & here comes Aidilfitri... Frankly speaking, I could't find the mood for Hari Raya until the last minute, forced my daughter to make some cookies & bought a few as well. A few types of kerepek for munchies seekers.
Finally, we celebrated our Hari Raya in PJ before proceeding back to KT to celebrate with the other side of the families.Visited the uncles & aunties and a few cousins place.

HERE COMES THE FASTING MONTH
The Ramadhan is here now.... Our office session changed. Starts 1/2 hour early , lunch break cut down by 1/2 hr & we go back 1 hr earlier. That's something for the mothers especially.... Most of us here have ample time in the kitchen...We always prefer to cook than buying from the Bazaar.
The school children were so happy that their 1st week of fasting ,spent during the school holiday... meaning... they can stay longer in bed. Having the chance to break their fast at home for those who stay in hostels, arghhh....WONDERFUL!

FIL WARDED
That Thursday, came back early in the evening to fetch mum from bro's place. Planned to have her at home during the weekend, therefore I took leave on Friday.At least, I can have the 3 solid says with her. Been occupied for the past 2 weekends with extra co-curiculum, at last... felt better that I can have her at home.... She was already in town for almost 3 weeks. (that's considered long).
While preparing dinner and HB just got home, he receive the message from KT, FIL was in the ER. What? ER? What's wrong? How's he? Those questions keep recurring. HB told be the news and has already started preparing himself to get back there at once. What about me? He said that I better stay & wait , the kids & mum were at home. stay? can't I be with him always? meanwhile, continue preparing dinner coz in my mind, he got to fill up his stomach before the journey coz he's for sure not stopping anywhere else unless he gets tired. But in this case, I'm 100% sure he won't get tired with the mind is in the midst of questions unanswered.
Managed to change his mind, I followed him back. Reached the hospital around 12.30am. FIL looked tired & sleeping most of the time. They're unsure of the cause of his unbalance, just assuming that it could be mild stroke.
After the 3rd day, then come result of the diagnose. Yes, sort of mild stroke, he felt dizziness, unbalance when he tried to get up. We all pray for his speedy recovery.

ILLIE'S WEDDING IS NOT OVER YET
After completing the function in Seremban on the 13th June, the newly wed were celebrated again in Ketereh on the 27th. MH & me decided that we just can't make it this time round and we just wait for the function at Pekan (bridegroom's hometown) 11th July. Surely we'll be the host that weekend.
11th July emerge, and the whole weekend was sort like we're having a family gathering again. This time, with more people, including aunties, uncles, cousins & a few more relatives that decided to come along with the troop to Pekan.
12 vehicles convoyed to Pekan & they accepted our presence with so much joy & treated us so well. There were Silat performance & life band as well. Wah! tak kalah grand jugak...
The following weekend, last but not least, the celebration is done at Kuala Terengganu. This time to cater the friends & relatives around the area. So we all went back to help out wherever possible.
Wow! I personally feels that Illie's wedding is the "most happening thing" happening in the family this year. Cucu pertamalah katakan....
Agaknya sebab banyak event dalam bulan June & July ni, agak tak sempat nak update gambar2 dlm blog ni.
Kat ofis pun bz juga sebab nak kelolakan Hadiah bagi Kernival Sukan 2009.

ILIE'S WEDDING WAS SPLENDID!
June was really a busy month for me....
Hardly find time to be in this mood of updating this blog.
Wah....! That's my first impression when arrived at Kak's place. Canopies were well decorated with white, yellow & gold scallops. The whole "padang" area nearby were covered by canopies.
The other brothers & sisters were alraedy there (most of them ,since Tuesday) & we were the last family to arrive. Nak wat cam ner.... Last week dah terpaksa cuti 2 hari for the A'Famosa function. Tak sampai hati nak cuti lagi... Just took one day off - Friday with the thought that we could leave Kuantan on Thursday night but unfortunately the wheather do not permit us to do so... It was so dark & expected heavy rain will be pouring, so we decided to travel on early Friday morning.
The "nikah ceremony" went well despite the imam was late more than 1/2 hr . I bet the bridegroom dah mula resah inside when he has to wait on quite sometime but he remain looking cool. Respect lah!..... Done with one breath!... sah? sah...... Alhamdulillah.... doa....
Saturday-the khenduri besar. Memang besarlah juga.... As usual, bapa/mak saudara bantu dalam bab menyambut tetamu... Ilie's cousins semuanya tolong deliver berkat/cenderahati. Itulah untungnya ada ramai adik beradik & sepupu. Bila dah ramai, bergotong royong aje, semua jadi ringan.

PA's OFFICE FAMILY DAY
Pa's family day was celebrated last Thu-Sat at A'Famosa Melaka .The past 2 years, we had excel moments at Pulau Redang. Someone had not enough of Pulau Redang i guess, that's why for 2 consecutive years we had it at the same place- Laguna Redang. It was a very nice resort though.
The theme at A'Famosa was "Arabian Night".... We're excited to go but at the same time worrying of what to wear that night. Our tailor was suppose to sew something for us but she fall ill just the week before the function & surrender back the materials. Alamak! Ni shushah ni....Anyhow, we managed to hook on some clothes ala ala Arabians. Make do with things can be pulled around us."Asal ada gaye Arab sikit jadilah kot".
Everyone was around this time round, picked up Ateh at IUUM, then Wawa at SA and we shoot off the highways to Malacca just in time for the kids to catch up with the paint ball scheduled for the evening. I went up straight to the apt to unpack our bags. Thought it'd be easier to find the clothes in the closet rather than from the luggage.
That night, after dinner, we enjoyed the show at Cowboy Town. Most of all the Fireworks. Rasa dah lama tak tengok bunga api... Kalau ada concert ke, sure heboh ke, apa ke, kat Kuantan tu, tak pernah nak chip in pun. Pa always against those kind of events sebab "BERDEBU" katanya... So... kami pun terlangak ke atas tengok fireworks kat A'Famosa tu....
Next morning (Fri) had the telematch after breakfast, followed by the water fun.... slides, waves, etc. Can't believe it that we actually joined the water craft despite Pa was not 100% recovered from his pain. Masa tu tak ingat apa dah..... nak main juga... Next day baru sedar sakit badan sana sini dek berpegang kuat takut terhempas kat air tu....
Gambar2 banyak dalam Camera Ateh...Next time bleh transfer sikit kat sini.

That Grand Dinner"Arabian Night"was really fun.We brought the cup cakes made by Nor to the dinner as addition to the desert. Look at them. Gorgeous aren' t they? They were all gone before even half time of the dinner. Thanks a lot Nor.. Most of us were impressed by your good handwork.See... below are the picture of the cc.
They magic show by the Trg chap was also good. His name is Shahril... He's good......The next morning after breakfast was suppose to be the Safari trip. But we headed to Seremban about 11.00 instead. We've been to the Safari before, so....i guess the kids prefer Seremban then, too excited to meet their cousins.
Besides paying them the visit, we'd like to give a helping hand in advance before the wedding(next weekend). Stayed one night in Seremban, then we're back to Kuantan again on Sunday evening. The traffic on the opposite lanes were terribly packed & slow, especially from Tol Gombak till Bentong. pity them. Lucky we're on the opposite direction.
Looking foward for this coming weekend to celebrate Kak Ilie's big day(wedding) pulak.GOOD LUCK Kak Ilie!....

BERITA YANG TAK BERAPA HENDAK DI DENGAR
It has awlays been like that... Kalau terima berita2 kematian ni, biasanya tak habis dengan satu, tetapi hampir pasti ada turutannya selepas itu....
Last Friday, late in the evening, got from Abdullah the news of Hj Bakri's death. He fell off the motorbike and passed away. They suspected it could be of heart attack.
Tuesday, late in the evening too, got a message from Dato Nadz, Doc is in ICU (heart problem as well) but he's still fighting it over. And yesterday afternoon, the Alumni Group announced the death of our 2nd Headmaster Dato' Hj Ibrahim Yahya He's the HM through my secondary schooldays. Actually Mr Prabhakar is the 1st HM for SMSS but our Batch was under him for about a year only, the rest of our life in school was under Cikgu Ibrahim Yahya's command.
He died in his hometown - Penang. If it has been KL, I might consider to be there for the last respect to him. I can still remember him well. He's very strict, public canning often seen during the assembly. (we girls selalu tunduk berlinang air mata & tersedu sedan tak sanggup melihat kawan2 di rotan).Tapi ramai kawan2 kami yang berjaya menjadi manusia yang berguna hari ini.(CEOs, Doctors, Engineers, Dekans,Lecturers, Entrepreneurs....etc etc, yang hebat hebat)
It's a great loss that we can feel.

VISITED BY OLD FRIENDS
To my surprise, three of my good & old friends(secondary schoolmates) came & pay us a visit after knowing pa was already back home. It was Saturday & they got to wait for one of them off from work before starting the journey. They purposely come all the way from KL for the short visit. They want to see for themselves that pa's already improved.
After tea, we had a ride to TC, just to show them the famous beach. Had a good time together & hoped to have such events more often. Even though I knew that all the three are good drivers, I still worry before getting their feedback saying they've arrived safe & sound slightly after midnight.
You three iron ladies! Thank you for coming & inspiring me.

PAPA SAKIT?
Lama tak update.
I got so occupied, berulang alik ke hospital.Tiba tiba papa sakit tangan. Tak dapat di angkat.Nasib baik tangan kiri, kalau kanan tentu lagi berat... susah nak melakukan kerja. Doctor diagnosed him - "Disc Herniation". Got to be warded for easier treatment. Everyday twice of physio & 4 times of stretching.
Two weeks warded, makes him grew thinner. Shian tengok. Must be due to lack of sleep & the discomfort. Nasib baik dah discharged. Good to have him at home again. At least he can have more rest . Kalau kat hospital tu, kejap2 ada je gangguan, nurse masuk check blood pressure, next masuk check darah, next masuk pulak cleaner, next masuk lagi tukang kutip sampah. Next masuk untuk buatkan stretching, then the doctor round ward. Kejap2 pintu bilik asyik di buka/tutup. Salah lah jangkaan kalau kat hospital tu boleh rehat.
He's still under treatment and MC given until 13th. We'll look & see... Hope he'll recover soon.

WHAT'S GOING ON THIS WEEK?
Tomorrow & the day after, will be in KL (having a course & followed by meeting). I have to come back straight away after the meeting, as usual. But this trip will be a more tiring one. There'll be 2 weddings waiting- one on Sat & the other one on Sunday. Both should not be missed coz the invitations came from our very good friend/relative.
I anticipate my place will be the centre of gathering for family members who will be coming for the weddings. Wow! Which one should I do first? Where should I start?
Need to pack the kids cloths for their stay in Ucu's place. Even for one night only, but the necessary things must be intact. Especially the school attires.
Then,prepare the bedrooms for the guests? Ensure the house is tip topNot forgetting to check the food stuffs - enough to cater us all.
Pheew! We women have always a lot to think of & plan our duties.(to much to spell out)
But I hope this gonna be one of the best weekend coz it's sort of family gathering as well.
Good Luck! Hehehe... I'm wishing "Good Luck to myself".

SURPRISE! SURPRISE!
Papa was on leave on Monday. Actually he planned to send Wawa back to college that day, but plan's changed. we all went on Sunday instead. Took the chance to pay Teh a surprise visit, then dropped by at PJ to see grandma & Along's family.
So, he's there all alone at home on Monday. Asked him in the morning if he has any plans? Answer was NOT MUCH except to go & settle some bills.
When we came back from office/school later in the evening ... he was sitting,watching television & I straight away walked to the kitchen, thinking of preparing something light for tea before having dinner prepared .
Suddenly Ilya noticed something in the Laundry area... Ma! Look at the new washing machine! Me..?#?.Why do we need two?
Papa is always like that. He gives me a lot of surprises. Mmmmm....
Thanks pa... Luv u so much...

SCHOOL HOLIDAY'S OVER
Last weekend still cherished with wedding calls...
Attended 2 weddings.. wah! now the trend is having a theme colour for the great day & also the trend of giving away souvenir...(bags ful with souvenir + cup cakes + egg + tid bits) etc etc.
One wedding chose their theme of black & red, the other was dark choclate. Both pun cantek.... Anggun gitu...
Kira Saturday tu, kami makan free lagi.... Sodap>>>>>
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Sunday, rushed those kid's to the hairdresser - had their hair cut. Cooked fast lunch (2 dish aje.. + sambal belacan yang dah sedia ada dalam fridge), kira 3 lah....sempoi aje, tapi sedap jugak kena ikan goreng panas2 tu... ( semalam dah makan banyak nasi minyak).
Got the laundry & ironing done early & sent Intan back to hostel. That's about all how the 1 week school holidays ended. We didn't go anywhere except the weddings & jalan2 cari makan dalam bandar Kuantan ni je..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ILYA
It was Ilya's birthday on Sunday, but I was so occupied & can't commit to celebrate her birthday. She had always wished to have a party where she can invite her friends & classmates, but I just couldn't manage that sort of event to be handled alone. Maybe we shall do it next time.
But I guess she's satisfied with the her favourite cake from Secret Recipe & satay papa brought home later in the evening. Anyway, we kind of celebrated it in a small scale where we have grandma & Ucu's family around.
Happy Birthday ILya. Hope you'll grow up to be a good girl.

What's happened during the weekend
BLESSED FRIDAY
I took leave on Friday, just to accomodate more time with mum. Fetched her from Din's place afters work on Thursday. Planned to have her for the weekend at home.
Noticed that time is too precious to waste & that I should show my care towards her while she's still around. She's already 74 but still strong.
I invited some friends of hers to the house for tea on that Friday evening. Served them "mee kari", agar2 laici & curry puff (karipap- sounds..?#%) hehehe... Glad that they were so happy & pleased meeting each other. Maklumlah... lama tak berjumpa.Berborak sampai hampir Maghrib juga....
Felt that that's the best I can do for her right now... given her the chance to meet her friends. Because I felt great too after meeting my friends. Somekind of satisfaction...
FINE SATURDAY
On Saturday, Azree had his extra class (preparation for UPSR). Ilya attended the Kem Bistari Solat program planned by the school. Lucky thing papa is willing to fetch them after their programs while I attended a bertunang invitation. Datin's eldest daughter got engaged to a Johorian.
UNFORTUNATE SUNDAY
First time attending the PIBG meeting of MGPS since Ilya joined that school. She's in std 3 now. High time & i felt that I should go. Intan left that school in 2003. Can't remember why I didn't attend the previous year PIBG meetings. Must have been out of town or for other reasons or else I guess I've always been supportive to the activities run by the school.
But, beyond my expectation, the meeting dragged till 1.00 pm with my empty stomach making noise & start having headache... it got worse, worsen & then worst. Took my lunch but after a while everything came out... Phewh! It's so painful.
That afternoon, nothing much can be done. I need to rest on bed till late in the evening. Felt better although the headache has not gone totally.

Noticed that time is too precious to waste & that I should show my care towards her while she's still around. She's already 74 but still strong.
I invited some friends of hers to the house for tea on that Friday evening. Served them "mee kari", agar2 laici & curry puff (karipap- sounds..?#%) hehehe... Glad that they were so happy & pleased meeting each other. Maklumlah... lama tak berjumpa.Berborak sampai hampir Maghrib juga....
Felt that that's the best I can do for her right now... given her the chance to meet her friends. Because I felt great too after meeting my friends. Somekind of satisfaction...
FINE SATURDAY
On Saturday, Azree had his extra class (preparation for UPSR). Ilya attended the Kem Bistari Solat program planned by the school. Lucky thing papa is willing to fetch them after their programs while I attended a bertunang invitation. Datin's eldest daughter got engaged to a Johorian.
UNFORTUNATE SUNDAY
First time attending the PIBG meeting of MGPS since Ilya joined that school. She's in std 3 now. High time & i felt that I should go. Intan left that school in 2003. Can't remember why I didn't attend the previous year PIBG meetings. Must have been out of town or for other reasons or else I guess I've always been supportive to the activities run by the school.
But, beyond my expectation, the meeting dragged till 1.00 pm with my empty stomach making noise & start having headache... it got worse, worsen & then worst. Took my lunch but after a while everything came out... Phewh! It's so painful.

Lama Tak Update
Wah! Almost 1 month now since my last update. (that long aaa....?)
Too bz to get into writing, but I haven't missed reading...Obviously reading is much easier then writing huh!
But one of the aim starting this blog before is to sharpen my writing skills....

Hana wuz ere
On Sunday, Hana came over with her family from PJ, after having their family day at Beserah.
It was a great day having another old friend as a guest at home, even for only a short while, but it was so meaningful.(yet to learn to post the photo)
I was introduced to her niece who actually acted in the Dutch Lady advert on TV sometime ago. He's really cute & chubby name Hafidz.
Managed to prepare hi-tea for them since she planned to come around 3pm. Served them Mee goreng & agar2 laici. Tu je yang sempat nak buat. Occupied since morning till late evening.
Tg Puteri & troop also came in later in the evening. Had some time with Ilya. Not long after that, Din & family arrived. Had tea with them.
What a great weekend.

Makan Nasi Lemak at SEMSAS?
Earlier that Saturday, we visited Intan & had nasi lemak for lunch. The canteen nasi lemak was not bad! Syafiqah, Syakirah & Ain were also there since they came for the weekend at home on Friday evening.
Intan was happy, with so many visitors & the small kids took their chance to play basketball at the court. I'm sure they had fun.

Anak angkat datang...
Last weekend Alif & Syifaq came to spend their weekend at home. Syifaq was so glad she got to taste the home cooked dish. "Asyik makan kat cafetaria aje... boring jugak". That's what she told me.
Had dinner together on that Saturday, Breakfast & lunch on Sunday & they were off back to campus by 5 in the evening. Alif wanted to play basketball since the weather was clear.
Great weekend with them.

Outdated event _CNY Hols
Lamanya tak update.
Since the CNY hols was quite a busy one... Everyone turned up except for Joe, his sons Effy & Siddiq & Wawa (who cannot make it last minute). The rest of the family from Terengganu side.. were all here, gathered in Kuantan.
We counted the cars parked outside - there were 11 altogether. OK - take out the 3 existing ones at home, so there're actually 2 NPV & 6 cars.
The crowd started on Saturday, when Kak & Ku Lin arrived in 2 cars. Sunday- Ku Nor & family, then the great day Monday- FIL,MIL, Ku Jalil, Ku Alim,Ku Iskandar with their falilies all arrived at home by noon. We had lunch - sayur lemak putih, ayam masak merah, ikan masin. It was simple but nice.
In the evening - we're busy preparing our grand re-union event (dah lama tak berkumpul semua, even raya baru ni pun, tak cukup korum).
We had barbeque.Macam macam ada.... Rugi Wa tak balik, tapi dia ada test, nak study.. nak wat camne...
Ku Alim jadi orang kuat menghidupkan bara api.
Ku Iskandar & Ku Noraini orang kuat merinate daging
Ku Lin, orang kuat merinate ayam/sotong/(dia kerah anak2 saudara - cucuk sausage kat lidi siap dengan selang selikan onion lagi)
Masing2 bertungkus lumus dengan dish masing2...
I, as tuan rumah rasa senang hati pulak... sebab dah ramai tukang masak yang masuk shift duty.
As early as the Maghrib begins, some of the chicken were ready to be served. Konon2nya nak bakar half cooked dulu, so that it wont take long later, tapi... lain pulak jadinya... The barbeque terus mula.... Ada pulak yang rajin, terus sambung dengan lamb, sotong,sausage.
Ikan takde sebab ikan tak fresh masa gi cari. So we drop the fish.
Ku Nor & Jai bawa mee Johor, they came back from Segamat for CNY celebration, just in time before the barbeque starts.
Bestnye..... Ramai/almost everyone's there. I can see my FIL is happy as the family gathered. I better learn fast to download the pictures.
Tempat tidor - semua area...In fact ada yang tdo dalam camping tent. Jai brought 2 of them. One for the boys & another for the girls to enjoy.
Hope they all had a good & memorable time in Kuantan. Looking foward for another gathering to be planned later.

Good Time with an old friend
Lucky thing that Zid was here yesterday. If it would have been the day before, then I would have been in a dilema in setting my priority either work/close friend.
She called at about 10.30am saying that she's in town. The meeting scheduled at 10.30am was cancelled, but she has another one at 2.30pm in UIAM BIM. She actually thinks of passing her time at Starbucks while serving the net there. But told her that I can spend that little time with her & hubby and asked them to drop by at the house.
Had good time chatting with an old friend. Manage to serve her something light & cold drink.
Glad they dropped by & hope she'll pay me a visit again some other time.

Time....
I've been quiet for quite some time.. Tak sempat nak tulis, dan lebih suka jadi pembaca 2,3 hari ni.When the school life routine comes back, I'm surely get busy & rushing for time.
Time is so precious & every movement got to be calculated before hand; ie whether "it's gonna take long?" or "will we/I be on time". I guess I'm actually used to be time concious person because of the hostel life where we were guided by the ring of the bell...(way back in secondary school-nostalgia)
As for the 2 kids, they're OK & did show their effort to help out me around in the house. I want them to enjoy life at the same time. Azree likes washing the dishes a lot. Ilya likes to do the cutting, be it fruits, vege & potatoes.
Always lookong foward for weekends, Nak Santai sikit...

1st day of school...
Came back from school & KAFA, both Azree & Ilya looked very energetic. "Semangat berkobar2." Did their homework & followed with a little revision.
According to Azree, Headmaster told them to do daily revision for the coming UPSR in the 3rd qtr of the year & he wants to do it one hour per day...
As for Ilya, shortly after completing her homework... she's already gone dizzy...
"Ma, tolong gosok belakang, adik dah ngantuk sangat ni". It was just slightly after 9.00pm that time....Hmmmm I spoilt her.... Need to rub her back every night before she can sleep gently-deeply. But normally it wont take long (3-10 mins)
Haha.... I'd like to observe how long this will carry on for Azree.
What a drastic change to my dear son.. sigh....& touched a bit.

As I expected
The traffic was terrible, took me more than 40 mins to be able to fetch the kids & get back to work. Normal days would only take 15-20 mins. So tiring but the kids look ok and enjoyed meeting their friends again with lots of stories to tell. Both so eager to report their new day in school today, who their teachers, what are the teacher's expectation, some new friends, etc.
Later, they started their KAFA class in the afternoon about 2.30 which ended at 5.00pm. Again they came back & eagerly told me what happened in the KAFA class. Reached home tired, they sat infront of the TV until about 7.00pm.

School re-opens - first day of school for 2009
I started the day earlier than usual today (5.50am). Prepare breakfast and food to be brought to school by the 2 kids. They wanted to bring a home made food for tea break, so I did.
Last night Azree commented that the house was quiet without Kak Intan, Kak Wa & Kak Long.
Of course I said, "they've all gone back to their colleges & hostel." so now , you're back with adik Ya alone whom you can disturb.... So you better be good together... He added " Ma, besok nak bawa bekal apa ke sekolah?" Ilya also said, Ya nak bawa bekal esok."
Continuing the morning session, we left the house for school at about 7.05 and only managed to park the car at about 7.25..which we still need to walk about 100 meters to the school gate. Phewww! The road was busy & the school parking lots were full. Must be the parents of std one children are still there accompanying their kids.
Azree starts school at 7.30, ends at 1.00 while Ilya at starts at 8.00 till 1.30pm
So I can imagine this afternoon, it'll be the same to get a parking space (fetching them back)
I already decided to go slightly later than 1.30, hopefully there'll be less car by then.

It's a wet day to start off the new year
It has beeen raining since afternoon..... non-stop, but keep drizzling & sometimes pouring....
Not much can be done except to stay in and do the laundry (pull them back from the string & dry them in the dyer).
Too lazy to cook and decided to dine out. Another excuse for me not cooking - to celebrate Intan's Birthday which was suppose to be celebrated last Friday, but we went back to our kampong. It was still drizzling when we get on/off the car. Had a good dinner and a good time with the family except Teh's not around. She already enrolled in UIAM.
A while after we reached home , Rosli arrived with his family. First time meeting them. Wife's name is Ikin.Not bad too, he has 3 sons & a daughter. Eldest is alredy 15 yrs & the youngest is 2+ if I'm not mistaken.
He chat's alot with Jack, locating some of our old friends, tracing them, and planning for re-union one day.
The new beginning day of the year passed in a wet but enjoyable mood.

The New year begins
Today is the first day in the new year 2009.
I'm called to start my own blog today after reading some friend's blog before this.
Just to keep the happenings stored somewhere, easy access, for remembrance....
Earlier,I just enjoyed being a reader, smiling at their jokes & funs, admiring their capabalities and oportunities , but today.... I changed my mind. Thought it might be better if I start doing something more interesting by writing my own blog.
Yes! I started writing my own blog.
A good new year beginning i guess....
