Waaahhh dah lama benar tak tgk drama Takuya Kimura. The last was Engine. After that I'm too busy with my little family and work.
Since kiter tgh tension pasal kerja (yg belum tau apa kesudahannya), tetiba lak teringin nak tengok Takuya Kimura. Sooooo dgn muka sedeh tadi, call hubby minta kebenaran untuk beli satu DVD. Hehehehe.. he said Yes! Yeay!!! Thank you sayang..
So I chose CHANGE. Annnnnddd I bought Adele's album for hubby. Terima kasih sebab benarkan kiter beli DVD. Hehehehe..
I thought I want to keep it to myself. Until I see some result. I have been doing this exercise, called T-Tapp (www.t-tapp.com) for almost a month. There are many routines in T-Tapp but as a beginner, I just focus and maintain on Basic Workout Plus. It's 15-min workout and even it's only 15 minutes, really make me sweating.
The result, last week (week 3), I can put on my old uniform. Means I lost 1 size! Since they emphasized on loosing inches instead of kgs, I just don't give a damn and didn't even weigh myself. The fact that I can fit my old blouse (the last time I wore, it was before my first pregnancy), really, really make my day and I'm sooooooo excited.
Of course the hardest part will be tummy. But I have to be patient, focus and consistent. Insya-Allah I will take Charlotte Siems' advise and try to practice them. She's my idol now. :D And thank you my Sayang for the book and DVD. I will try my best to be fitter and firmer me. Insya-Allah.
Enough about me.
Recently, I sent Najlaa for her check-up. She lost weight. Now she's 7.2 kgs, previously she was 7.4 kgs. Makan boleh tahan actually. Takpelah, janji jgn obese or too skinny. Lagipun, I have to carry you to 3rd floor. If you're obese, Najlaa, mummy pengsan tau. Oh nasib baik mummy now doing her T-Tapp. Lebih fit gitu.
Perangai pulak, super duper manja dgn mummy dia. Pantang mummy gerak, dia startlah melalak. Sungguh tak senang mummy nak masak. Nak masak maggi pun payah :D Mummy cuba pekakkan telinga, tapi kadang tu kesian, kalau tak kesian, hati panas. Sabar jelah. Last week, mummy "kurung" Najlaa dalam bilik with Abah and Abang. Abang plak dgn slumbernyer siap kunci pintu lagi. So, the result, dalam sehari dua ni "lalakan" dia tu taklah lama. Macam pagi tadi, Abah kata dia menangis depan pintu bilik, 5 min jek. Lepas tu, dia merangkak balik ke tilam, baring dengan Abah, duduk diam-diam. Boleh laa plak. That's my "serious" little girl.
Ilyas pulak, tgh dalam proses belajar dan meniru. Siap ikut mummy T-Tapp tu. Bila mummy on je DVD T-Tapp tu, Ilyas dah senyum lebar. Abah pulak ajar dia "sluuurrrrppp.. uuuuu... aaaaa... waaaahhh" bila tgk gambar makanan. Results, bila tengok channel AFC, dia akan start "Ma, ma.. uuuuu aaaa..." Orang sembahyang, dia pun sebok nak ikut juger. Bila tang sujud oklah, betullah gayanya. Tapi bila tang ruku', salah gaya.. gaya yg dia guna, gaya mummy tgh T-Tapp.. alahaaii anak..
Ilyas sangat murah dgn senyuman, but at the same time temper. He loves animal esp cats. Anyway semua kucing dia panggil "Awu" sbb our cat's name is Ayu. Now, dia tolong mummy kasi Ayu makan and also one stray cat kat depan rumah.
He's very kind-hearted and thoughtful too. Ada masa kalau Najla nangis, dia sebok carikkan puting dan sumbat mulut Najlaa. Tapi ada masa dia akan pukul je adik dia tu. Ilyas, Ilyas.. kalau tgh makan biskut, adik dia datang, sebok dia nak suapkan adik dia.. Ilyas, Ilyas.. Kalau dia tgh main, adik dia datang he will start "adik.. adik.. adik.. maa..maa.. adik.." kan cheong adik dia akan kacau dia.. Ilyas, Ilyas...
Kalau pergi klinik, he will flirt with the clinic staff. Gatal..
Itulah my children. Yang satu suka senyum, yang satu sgt2 serious. :D I love them both sooo much.
14th Feb, that was the saddest day in my career.

I will not comment further on the reason of the closure. I am so disappointed. I was so excited about our Umrah traffic this year. Not even half way they decided to cut off KUL. I feel like all my effort now totally meaningless. Oh well, I am nobody and totally have no say in this issue.
What am I going to do next? Very, very good question. I'm not sure yet. It's just that I feel lucky for having Mr Lai as an employer. He's on a mission today and I wish him and the managers all the best. If he succeed, my job will be secured insya-Allah. In a meantime, I am considering going for ACCA course.
Apa-apa pun, wish me luck.
2nd January, 2012, marks my eighth year with this company. Such a long time. The longest in my working history. So many things, good and bad, sweet and bitter, have happened. Will I stay another one more year? Only God knows.
Oh well. Very true. I am super duper busy nowadays. I really wanted to write, but I just couldn't find time just for doing that. Hmm not only updating my blog, I wanted to try out new recipes also very hard nowadays.
There were so many things I want to write here. Be it my daily experience, my observation, my children (yes now I have 2 little babies and I don't really have time to tell about them here), my hobbies, everything. But I'm too busy.
Work and children, these two really take my time. Since now is the end of school holidays, I can slow down a bit, and that's why I'm writing this. Children? Ilyas is quite OK. I can let him play while I'm doing house chores. Najlaa? Hmm.. she's now just like Ilyas before. I can't leave her at all. I have to sneak out if I want to do something else. Otherwise she will cry like kena dera.
Oh well, I can't wait for Najlaa to start walking. I hope by that time, she can play with her brother and her father, WITHOUT ME BEING AT HER SIDE ALL THE TIME!! I'm not complaining though. I quite enjoy the motherhood, but sometimes I need just a little bit of time just for myself.
Yesterday, first time jejakkan kaki ke rumah baru Mak. A bit sad actually. Rumah lama boleh letak 2 set sofa, 2 set dining table, and the kitchen, very spacious. This new house? Nama jek semi-d, tapi almost everything in that house, smaller than my 3-bedroom apartment. Sosak napas Mak. Paling sedih tgk kitchen. Nak letak fridge kecik pun rasanya tak muat. *sigh*
Whenever I'm dealing with cashier or customer service or any service provider, I will try not to be harsh. I'm a service provider myself and I always remind myself how hard it is to handle difficult customers and for some reason, God will some sort of punish you, if you're being one.
But last night, I was totally pissed off with this Bangla. When I approached his stall to look for a tuna fish (ikan tongkol), he was on the phone. I saw another guy was sitting there, doing nothing and didn't approach me. Fine. So I took one fish and ask the guy to weigh and tell me how much. He said "RM7" while still on the phone. And me being idiot, straight away say yes and gave him instruction on how to cut my fish, without waiting for him to hang up!
I told him "Kepala, buang.. saya tak mau.. kemudian potong EMPAT" while showing FOUR of my FINGERS to him. He was still on the phone and only hung up when he wanted to use his chopper. I kept looking at him, while he was cutting my fish. Something is not right, my heart told me. But I could not see clearly what he was doing at first.
And I was right!!!! Something was not right. He cut my fish into 5 or 6 pieces!!! I only realized that when he asked me if I want the fish head to be cut into 2 or not!!!
Me : Saya sudah cakap tadi, saya tak nak kepala. Kemudian potong empat. Sekarang you potong berapa?
Bangla : Kakak takda cakap sama saya
Me : Macam mana you kata I tak cakap sama you. I sudah siap tunjuk empat jari saya. You tgk sekarang, berapa saya tunjuk? (showing my fingers again to him)
Bangla : jari kakak ada LIMA laa..
Me : Berapa jari saya, saya tunjuk sama you. EMPAT kan? EMPAT!!! kenapa you potong lebih?? Saya tak nak bayar RM7, kasi saya RM6, sebab you sudah salah potong. Lain kali kalau you tak paham, tanya.
Even though I did get RM1 discount, some how I feel a bit disappointed. I should've just left the fish. My hubby told me "In future, never buy from someone who's busy talking on the phone". Yeah, he's right, but again, I didn't expect HIM to serve me because I was another guy who was idling there!
Seriously, kiter susah sgt nak maki orang macam malam tadi. Selalunya boleh terima seadanya. But I don't like my tuna fish cut THINLY, idiot!!!!
