Easy Sundae....... |
D,
It was lazy Sunday for us. Fidel returned from the golf range in the mid morning with loads of of stuff. He made a stop at Geylang market. We had simple dishes of siput masak lemak, tempeh goreng kicap & tahu goreng.
While he spent some time going thruogh revision with the boys, I went to BML's 2nd Anniversary in the afternoon with Zu, Aunt Ley, cousin Sabreena, Aunt Yah & mil. It was rare occassion for Aunt Ley to come over to our place, so yesterday she sat until she lost track of time. We've always enjoyed her company as there is always to talk about.
Zu, thanks for the passion fruits. Can't get enough of the desserts aaaa......

I had to sit in on Friday...urgh!!!!! |
D,
I planned to go out yesterday since the boys were off early to school & would only be home late afternoon. But......mil called early in the morning, saying, she was coming over as the lil' nephew was awake since 4am & was restless at home. So, all plans went down the drain.
At least I wasn't in a bad mood, so that was ok, I guess. Took them out for late breakfast, let the nephew & Hin played at the palyground, played with Fifi. I wonder where nephew got his energy from. He's a light sleeper, doesn't eat or drink his milk regularly. He's spoilt rotten by his parents & mil...so I think I'm not his favourite aunt. He doesn't get his way whenever I'm around. I'm just glad that I could prove to mil that my method works after all....he managed to finish up his dinner easily....kekekeke....So mil concluded that only Fidel & I could be stern towards him, that nephew somehow will listen to our instructions, but he could twist his way around with his ibu, ayah & nenek.....nie ker anak millienium???
Today, I was all geared to make my bread. I made 2 types - cheese buns & cinnamon buns......the boys couldn't wait to eat them when they smelled the aroma from the kitchen......Fifi had her 1st bath with us today. She obeyed me all the way...yay!!!! The best part was that she loved the kitten food!!!! Thanks again, Herda. Aiyah, you didn't have the chance of meeting Fifi again....I don't blame you laa, you were enjoying something else...kekekekeke....She became my food critic today. She went off happily with extra pack of cinnamon buns & the brownies she ordered...so how, Sunday to Balanze???? kekekekeke......
To Parkway again, in the afternoon while waiting for the boys. Before heading home, we went to the halal sushi joint behind Al Ansar Mosque for dinner takeaway. A slow Saturday passed me by................

Home....not alone. |
D,
I'm on AWOL. Haven't been to Balanze this week. Lots of spring cleaning to do. Managed to meet Zu at Centrepoint on Tuesday. How can I not go to Robinsons? Since she was there waiting for me, I went up....made a stop to look at the kitchenware....urgh!!!! So tempted!!!!
While I sipped my cold Chng Tng, watch Zu ate her lunch & looked through the pages of the Bread Machine book, we talked & talked.....if only she didn't have to go back to work....So now, I'm all geared up to make my bread.
Ustazah was on AWOL, too. We were all waiting for her yesterday. When I called her hfone, there was no respond. Called her children, I was told she wasn't in S'pore. So we had afternoon tea party....with hot tea, chocolate muffin & currypuffs. It is therapeutic for us the junior & senior SAHMS on every Wednesday.
Exam is coming soon. We can feel the heat already. I'm so nervous. Fidel is doing his best to coach the boys. I wish the boys appreciate all of their daddy's efforts.
As I sit here typing my thoughts & feelings, I'm thinking of late foster mom, foster dad, my biological dad & mom, my own family unit. It's like everything in my life fits like a glove - be it the good or the bad experiences. I realize a mom's love is unconditional....although I was separated from mom for so many years, she sacrifices her time for me now. She never keep still when she sleeps over. She tends to any chores that I've not done when she should be resting. Masya'Allah. She's a wonderful mom & a good mother-in-law to Fidel. Alhamdulillah.

A new baby.... |
D,
Friday - Sent Id for therapy. Kak Su's cat has 4 beautiful kittens. Id & Hin wanted to adopt 1 or more......we had to get Fidel's approval - he's not a cat person. Finally, met Ainn for breakfast. Hin entertained lil' Erynn at the playground....macam Romeo & Juliet main panjat-panjat..kekekeke.
Did I mention of springcleaning?....Hmm.....so lemau that I didn't finish clearing up the clutter, so by evening when MIL came over...the house was as it was....kekekeke. Fidel took the opportunity to take me out for a midnite show Ghosts, a Korean movie.
Meanwhile.....Hin kept asking Fidel for a kitten....each time he went, Cat....want cat....cat....want cat.....When Fidel asked, "Who's gonna take care of it, what if it scratches my furniture?" Hin was so eager to answer...Hin, will take care of cat...while Han put up his hand to answer....."cover the furniture with newspaper ah...." Lepakz...!!! Ley camtu??
Saturday - Managed to squeeze time for facial in the morning. After sending the boys, we went to a pet shop to look for kitten... a ragdoll kitten cost $700....never mind hor, I'd rather spend the money on something else. So, by then, mil knew I was looking for kitten, she doesn't like the idea at all. She didn't mind Fidel's hamsters, fish...but not my kind of pet. Oh well, I can't please her all the time.
Sent her home, played with lil' nephew & soon after, SIL's family came over. So the children played for a while, since they've not met for a long time.
Sunday - Fidel finally agreed to let me have a kitten in the house. So we bought the stuff for the pet. Eeks...I've to fork out my own allowance since it was my big idea. The boys didn't know about this yet as they were busy with their own stuff - Iz revising, Id & Han with soccer, Hin went for rehearsel for school concert. In the afternoon, Id went to Pulau Ubin with his braingym group & the rest of us went to Aunt Nor's house to celebrate our cousin's 17th birthday.
Went to mom's place to collect a kitten..supposed to be 5 month old, but she's too big for us to cuddle. So mission aborted. Back at home, went to a website to adopt a kitten. When we finally got one, we had to collect the kitten at Jurong East.....Fidel was so kind that he offered to drive us there the same evening.
So....there she was, the temporary owner, Ina, a young girl, called the little baby, Cheeky. Her brother, Chumi was adopted earlier. I call my baby girl, Fifi...as my 4 boys are called Far...hehehehe.
Tuesday - There are so many things I need to know about maintaining this lil baby girl. Herda is so kind to lend a hand, she came all the way from work to teach us how to handle & feed Fifi. Fifi is already comfy here, I litter trained her on the 1st night that she came. She drinks milk from a saucer & she's so playful. Those who view Fifi at Herda's blog, you can see a lil teddy beside her while she drank her milk. Well, that's her companion - the teddy is her wrestling mate. The only person who doesn't play with her is Fidel....he simply watches us playing with her through the balcony door. She's not allowed to come inside as she doesn't know how to clean herself yet after she goes into the litter pan.
Fifi is 1 month old this week. She's grown a bit bigger, thanks to Herda for recommending the milk specially for kittens. She loves me when I feed her, she hates it each time I wash her up...kekekeke....I'm a mommy to baby all over again.....

How?? |
D,
I've been reading on how people lose weight through exercise & right diet. 1 can lose up to 4 kg a month. If only I can do that. I think I have to sit & jot my eating habits & focus on how to burn the stubborn fats that has been dwelling in my body for donkey years.
On the other hand, I managed to talk to AT last week. She has gone back to the working force. I'm happy for her. I hope that 1 day we will be able to carry out our plan together, Insya'Allah. We talked about the disasters that happened around the world. Sesungguhnya tanda-tanda akhir zaman nie dah ketara - bagaimana orang-orang Islam ditindas, Islam hanya terletak pada nama, kekejaman berlaku di sana-sini, perubahan cuaca & banyak lagi. Ngeri....takut, namun kita masih dalam khayalan - we admitted to ourselves. Me - camner nie, aku nie masih lemau, walhal dah nyata with all that is happening around us, I'm still lemau. She - gitulah, keadaannya, manusia akan makin leka, semakin kiamat tu akan menjelang, hanya segelintir orang Islam yg beriman, yg lain hanya pada nama saja. And like a knock on my head, I asked myself, golongan apa kah aku nie? Sampai bila nak bertongkat, terkial-kial dlm kegelapan?
Terngiang-ngiang frasa ini - Tuhan ku, aku tak layak masuk syurga Mu, namun tak upaya menghadapi api neraka Mu.......Sesungguhnya masa tidak menunggu sesiapa. Ia akan tetap berlalu, yg rugi adalah manusia.
Astaghfirullah.....Astaghfirullah.....Astaghfirullah.
Dah masuk bulan Syaaban. Dapatkah aku berjumpa Ramadhan???? Banyak sungguh kau kene repair, Pinkie!!!!!! Sempat tak????!!!!!!??????? Kau rasa Allah boleh terima apa yg kau repair selama nie, Pinkie????? Oh.....sesungguhnya itu adalah soalan cepumas!!!!!!!!
Sesungguhnya aku sekarang diselubungi ketakutan, malu dgn Allah.

The moral of the story..... |
D,
It was last minute plan to meet Herda this evening. As usual, it's fun time!!! I've always unable to get the right slot to have my nails done at my bro's salon because I always ask him last minute. But, today....die-die must go, although I know he's fully booked. I popped in to say "hi", showed him my "sad" face...so he said he would sms if he could squeeze Herda & I later. As we were walking aimlessly, he smsed me & we rushed to the salon. Hehehehehe.....mom must have called him to say I was coming, she might have told him to do my nails....hm.....maybe.....
It was small, strictly for having the nails done. For me, it's cosy enough for a neighbourhood nails salon. That was my first time being treated like a queen by my bro. He did my feet, gosh!!!! His partner who's going to deliver any moment now was doing my hands. Finally, I got my spa manicure & spa pedicure..wow weeeeeee.....happiness!!!!!
Herda was still contemplating, so she had the same treatment for her hands & extra treatment for her feet. I'm so jealous at her nails!!! Urgh!!!! It was fun, I really enjoyed myself, giggling away as bro scrubbed my feet. It was late but Herda & I couldn't call it a night yet. We had supper!!!!
Okies, Herda....show them the photos!!!!! Hm....so what's next? Harem or Wayan Retreat???? Ish, ish, ish......owang tengah gaji nie, banyak sungguh godaan......

Golden Eggs.... |
D,
I got hold of the "golden eggs" @ Jason's. A pack of 6 cost $4.85, each weighing 73g. I bought 2 packs. Yup...I finally miss the eggs. Went to the school for the reading sessions, rushed to Balanze, squeezed half an hour workout, zoomed to the next room for Pilates. Yayness!!!
What's for dinner? Egg mayo sandwich, tuna mayo sandwich, salad (butterhead lettuce, celery, cherry tomatoes & dressing), sauteed mushrooms with garlic & black pepper.

to go or not to go.... |
D,
J called yesterday. She's having problems with the other reading moms. They don't stick to the schedules. At 1 time, she was all alone with the kids. I agree to help out every Thursday & Friday. But now she needs me to come on Tuesdays, too. Just in case the moms don't turn up. Yikes! I hate to miss my workout followed by Pilates. But I'll feel bad if she's all alone on Tuesdays. I guess I'll go for Pilates & then workout which I don't like to do. But I take it this way, what if one day I need help? Will someone be there for me? So......I told her I'll be there today.
Eeeks!!!!! I'm so not in the mood to springclean!!!! I'm missing something....my carbohydrate!!! Yeah, that's it. My sinful food!!!! I still eat my carbo & sinful food, but I cut the amount. Ish!!!! Better gulp down the plain water to get rid of these pangs!!!!
It's Tuesday, I wonder if Fidel's gonna let me have waffles & icecream tonight??? Lemau, lemau.......

Balanze it rite...... |
D,
The workout last Friday was a torture. Nelam pushed me so hard that I was surprised I could perspire so much!!!! Saturday was another fat burning day with Herda under Nelam's supervision, too.Of course, we gave ourselves a treat at Coffee Bean after that. Then to Jason's & shared a cab with Herda.
It was a busy afternoon, sending the boys & grocery shopping. When we reached home, mil was already there as she couldn't wait any longer to see her grandson's condition. I don't see what the fuss is about. What can anyone do?? He's got chicken pox, so?? I'd rather she come after the two weeks' grace as she's looking after the little nephew. But old folks are stubborn, just like kids........
Sunday morning was marketing day. Fidel told me to lay the chickens off for the next couple of weeks due to the bird flu. We bought loads of vegetables, tofu & beef. Lyana came over to collect our used stuff. After lunch, I was so exhausted that I refused to do the dishes & had a long afternoon nap.
This morning, I had the chance to go to Balanze again. There was Nelam, telling us to smile during the torture. I said, how to smile? Today's Monday blues, laaa. Herda, sayang you didn't come...I made Cornbread & gave Nelam & Lynn some....So the rest of the day will be spring cleaning, now that the boys are off to school except for Iz.
Monday Blues.........

Urgh!!!..hopefully this will get through |
D,
I've been busy. Iz has chicken pox since the last week of school. Worse..he was getting all better until yesterday, he got infection. The fever came back all because of his itchy fingers which can't stop touching the wounds. Urgh!!!!!!!
Fidel said it was a waste that Iz missed sitting for the mock exam this whole week. I tell you, I didn't kow that this school is so KIASU!!!!!! Or do other schools practise this, too? Fidel went to school to collect the worksheets for Iz to do at home. He saw rows of tables & chairs filled the hall & the p6 sutdents "sitting" for the papers. Oh gosh!!! But another side of me said....this may be a blessing in disguise for Iz, I don't want to put him into unnecessary stress. As it is, he's been in school from 7 am to 5.30pm every day for the mock exams!!! Each day he returns home tired. Tell me, do I still have to tell him to continue revising after dinner?
While the other boys are partying away, I'm glad that Iz's illness didn't hinder my visits to Balanze. I'm thankful that my boys are safe & well while I'm away. I'm thankful that Fidel is supportive. I'm still able to stay in my healthy lifestyle routine. Finally, I got hold of my fructose from Zu, the cheapest breadmaker (I think), hehehe. But still, I can't resist the temptation.....Choc. Chip Cookies!!! The boys have been nagging for it....this time I tried mummy jam's recipe...but I think I've "salah adun"...asal keras eh?? But still edible aaa....Then I tried one of Crisco's recipe....ok, nice too, since I'm lazy to use my favourite recipe.
Finally, we made it to Gelare last Tuesday, while Iz preferred to stay at home. I miss our Tuesday evenings at Gelare. Id, Han, Hin finished up the waffles within minutes. As Fidel was driving, Id told us that he used the same route to cycle from his Brain Gym centre to East Coast & back last Sunday. I could see he was beaming with pride. I'm happy with his achivements. I hope he has a stable career when he grows up, even if he's not good in his academics. I've yet to find out his other skills & I shall help him to refine them, Insya'Allah. Or perhaps he might pick up the academic grades much later.
Aiyah....I could have met Herda at Balanze today, but I've to settle the boys first. But I'm definitely going later.
Have a good weekend everyone.

I'tiraf
Wahai Tuhan
Ku tak layak
Ke SyurgaMu
Namun tak pula
Aku sanggup
Ke NerakaMu
Ampunkan dosaku
Terimalah taubatku
Sesungguhnya
Engkaulah Pengampun
Dosa-dosa besar
Dosa-dosaku
Bagaikan pepasir
Di pantai
Dengan rahmatMu
Ampunkan daku
Oh Tuhanku
Wahai Tuhan
Selamatkan kami ini
Dari segala
Kejahatan & kecelakaan
Kami takut
Kami harap
KepadaMu
Suburkanlah
Cinta kami
Kepada Mu
Kamilah hamba
Yg mengharap
Belas dariMU
Penantian By Harmoni
Berapa lama mesti ku nanti
Sinar cahaya mata mu
Gemerlap bagai bintang
Menghiasi malam
Malam yg menutup diriku
Berapa lama perlu ku tunggu
Lontaran suara dari bibirmu
Memecah hening taman
Taman syurgawi
Pada sebuah hati yg sepi
Penantian suatu siksa
Yg tidak tertanggung
Oleh tubuh ku yg kering & layu
Kepastian suatu penwar
Dlm suka & duka
Yg meniti hidup ku
Doa By Harmoni
Tuhan ku
Dlm termangu
Ku sebut nama Mu
Biar susah sungguh
Mengingat Mu penuh seluruh
Tuhan ku
Cahaya Mu
Panas suci bagai kerdip lilin
Di kelam sunyi
Tuhan ku
Aku hilang bentuk
Kembara di negeri asing
Tuhan ku
Pintu Mu ku ketuk
Aku tak bisa berpaling
Nasyid By Hidayah
Kepada Mu Ilahi
Yg Maha Agung Yg Maha Suci
Ku pohon perlindungan
Dan keampunanMu
Pada setiap sholat
Ku lafazkan doa & pujian
Kukuhkanlah taqwaku & keimanan
Semoga diriku diselamatkan
Dari segala bencana
Limpahilah diriku dgn sinar penuh kemuliaan
Agar tidak digoda syaitan
Yg sungguh durjana peruntuh akhlak
Inilah doa seorang insan
Mohon perlindungan
The Reason
Hoobastank
The Reason
I'm not a perfect person
There are many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
