My Weekend Birthday Bash!

.
.
.
Saturday start as early as 6.30am (as usual my kids wake up early).
.
.
10a.m me, Mina and Awish off to G.I.A.N.T to buy groceries ... for our weekly food supply of course.


After lunch me and hubby off to Mutiara Damansara. For my birthday, hubby treat me with a 1 night stay at the Royale Bintang. No kids, just us.


Then we tried the Bubba Gump Shrimp...err kinda expensive though.


Then I went to Jean Yip for a facial...the last facial I had was 2 years ago.


It should be a 75minutes treatment but it end up nearly 2 hrs. Well I collected quite a huge numbers (if I can count it) of black head, white head, pink head etc since my face has been neglected for too long.

heheh..I tought I never capture this picture cos my eyes is closed, but my I-phone never failed me...agak2 saja and snap.

After that joined my hubby at Red Box...

Well...I did not sing cos....seriously I can't sing at all.

Then after Maghrib we collect the movie ticket at Cineplex cineleisure and go back to Ikano for dinner. Initial plan to have a steam boat at Pulau Ketam was cancelled cos too many people there. We went to Tepanyaki...I had a beef noodles. The taste emm...so-so.


With a full tummy, we headed to Cineleasure again...but since its still quite early (our show at 10pm)...we walk through the street market.

Then we watch this movie "Confession of A Shopaholic".


Next morning at 10am...we checked out...can't leave the kids at home too long...really missed them.

The day continue as I'm hunting for a sewing machine. Found 1 that cought my interest.

Specification Brother LS2160
"Perfect for basic sewing and mending"
This lightweight model has all the basic features you will need, such as automatic buttonhole, decorative & quilting stitches and twin needle.
*14 built in stitches allowing 26 different Stitch Functions
*4-step Automatic buttonholer
*Free arm with removable accessory compartment allowing sleeves and pant legs easy to sew
*Twin needle for two-colour stitching
*Adjustable thread tension control
*Electronic no heat speed control

After 1.5 hrs of short training...I bring the machine home..RM570.00
Cheap and just nice for a beginner like me.

For dinner, we go to ioi mall (new wings) to 'pekena' nandos.

No food picture taken since we are busy eating.

Upon paying the bills I noticed hubby wallet have dented marks. Kinda pissed off cos its the new coach wallet I bought for him about 2 mth ago. Upon investigation, the dent was caused by something pointed/ sharp, pressed on its surface. Checked inside his pouch bag, we were quite surprise. The missing rings was in his pouch bag. It was kept in the secret compartment in his pouch since the day Sarah was born. Sorry...few minutes before Sarah was born. The pointed shape of the rings that hold the saphire and diamond stone causing the dented mark on his wallet.
How lucky.....Hubby was planning to buy a new pouch...if he already did...he might have throw away his pouch with my rings in it....
The not so lucky thing is...I won't be getting a new diamond ring..uhuks!

.
Aku macam nak beli je mesin jahit ni.


.
.
.
.
Perlukah????
2nd Hand = RM1200.00
Brand new = RM2499.00

Spec....tgh study lagi.

Gulai Disaster.....Again!

Balik kerja semalam lebih kurang 6.30pm.
Masuk2 je rumah bau mcm ikan cencaru bakar.
Hmmm sure bibik bakar ikan ari ni..dlm kepala dah terbayang sambal belacan super dah.

Tengok atas meja makan memang sah ada ikan cencaru bakar dan sambal belacan tu.

Tapi ada satu lagi hidangan berkuah kuning..huh rajin sungguh bibik ari ni..takpe.

Amik sikit daging salai nak rasa...korek2 tengok2 ada nanas?
Nanas dalam gulai daging salai lagi? (FYI last 2 weeks masa kenduri ice n kau5ar, ada isu teknikal bila gulai daging salai telah bercampur dengan mangga, nanas dan ikan masin).

Adehh...butler telah ikut ajaran sesat daaa....
Mungkin masa dia makan lauk kenduri tu dia jumpa nanas so dia ingat bolehlah campur nanas dlm gulai daging salai..
Aku pulak mmg jarang bercakap dgn dia so masa kejadian minggu kawin tu idokle aku borak2 ngan dia pasal kesilapan teknikal katerer tu...

Adehh..sib baik rasanya tak teruk sgt sbb sikit je nanas dia bubuh.



Sorry ye cekpen....boleh ampunkan lagi kan..tak yah pecat ye..susah nak dpt bibik tau.....

My Hijab Innovation

Actually I prefer the words 'tudung' instead of Hijab but it's a less googled keyword ... i think.

So here again, I haven't retire/ or give up sewing my own tudung with awning. In fact I have become more creative because of my laziness to continue using a 3 piece Hajaba button design (aiyoo its sooo leceh to sew by hand cos I don't have a sewing machine).

While looking at least 6 more sets of uncut printed jersey, plain jersey and all the relevant awning, I start to think I need to simplified my tudung.

Then I remember all my 'Syria Hijab style' that i've stored inside a toyogo box. I think the cut and length suit my size...only the inner does not have any awning.

So I start to experiment it... a syria hijab plus a hajaba button head portion template....like below...can you imagine the outcome?


So after 1 failure (cos its short due to its a leftover printed jersey)...the second tudung is really great...the flow, the scallop (yeah scallop like curtain)..is nice.

I haven't model the new design yet..but you can view it on my dining table at the moment..hehehe...



Btw..the red polka dot..the material is absolutely FANTASTIC. Its very soft and thin but yet its not a see through kinda thing. So far its the best printed jersey (my humble opinion)....and its definietly cotton. So no worries about being cooked up inside this jersey under the hot sun..

It's a CHANEL!

Today.....I received a gift from our customer cum vendor.
It's really took me by suprise.

When I saw Chow (my colleague) carrying a torn Isetan paper bag (big!) my heart almost stop.

The moment I open the teared paperbag I saw a glimpse of black dust bag with double C logo on it...my heart really stop.

IT'S A CHANEL....for a person who kinda 'brand blind'...I do not recognize the 'name'. (All designer bag has its own name...rite?). But who care's? IT'S A CHANEL...IT'S A AAA CHANEL to be precise ....hehehe
I definitely will not spend my hard earned money on it when I can get at least 2 bag from CnK, Vincci or Carlo Rino. Plus who would believe I can afford a CHANEL. But this AAA Chanel is FREE!!!!...Yeayyyyy!!!So who care's if its a AAA immitation...hahahaha! I still can't stop smiling.

I don't want to think too much on why he give me the bag. Plus he gave it in front my Sr Manager and my GM. So its an 'open' gift...heheheh..enough talking..here's my 1st CHANEL AAA




Urgghh...photo quality is very bad..


So below is taken from online website.

Me, Yuna dan Sebenarnya

Dan Sebenarnya saya sudah lama tidak mengikuti (layan dgn seyes) lagu2 yang berkumandang di radio, kerana semuanya agak sama sahaja pada pendengaran telinga saya (yg tone deaf).

Tapi 2,3 menjak kebelakangan ini ada satu lagu ni yg sangat mesra dengan telinga saya. Selalu dimainkan oleh DJ hotfm (sewaktu saya memandu). Semalam penyanyi itu dijemput oleh Amkrew hotfm.
Hasil dari 10 minit sesi radio yang saya dengar, info yg saya dapat adalah:
1) Nama penyanyi :Yunalis
2) Sedang menuntut di Uitm dlm jurusan Undang2.
3) Asal dari indie (ini suku kata independant group rasanya).
4) Memakai tudung
5) Dia pandai bermain gitar (err bukan golongan gitaris seperti Slash Gun & Roses agaknya sebab saya belum berpeluang mendengar lagu2 lain lagi)
5) Dia menyanyikan lagu 'Dan Sebenarnya' secara live (uikss lagi sedap rupanye banding radio...hanya dia dan bunyi gitar itu sahaja...sgt harmoni, mesra telinga ....soothing mcm sedang buat facial kat leonard drake! jauhnyeee saya melayan)

Saya suka dengan kata-kata errrr liriknya.
Apa-apa pun mmg sgt best dan berbeza....ala Norah Jones tp bukan.

(Pst: Ku sangkakan indon yg menyanyi sebenarnya. Salah sama sekali.)

Tuan-tuan dan Puan-Puan serta para pembaca (ewah) saya persembahkan

Yuna-Dan Sebenarnya





Lirik
#
oh bulan
jangan layan diriku lagi
pabila,
air mata membasahi pipi
dan lagu2 di radio seolah2 memerli aku
pabila,
kau bersama yg lain
[Dan Sebenarnya Lirik]

adakah perasaaan benci ini sebenarnya cinta
yang masih bersemadi untukmu
dan sebenarya ku mengharapkan
di sebalik senyuman mu itu
kau juga merindui aku

ku enggan
berpura pura ku bahagia
ku enggan
melihat kau bersama si dia
oh ku akui cemburu
telah menular dalam diri
pabila
kau bersama yang lain

adakah perasaaan benci ini sebenarnya cinta
yang masih bersemadi untukmu
dan sebenarya ku mengharapkan
di sebalik senyuman mu itu
kau juga merindui aku

pabila kau merenung matanya
ku rebah,
jatuh ke bumi
di saat kau benar-benar mahu pergi
seperti ku bernafas dalam air
adakah perasaaan benci ini sebenarnya cinta
yang masih bersemadi untukmu
dan sebenarya ku mengharapkan
di sebalik senyuman mu itu kau juga merindui aku
oh

Untuk makluman 'semua' saya tiada perasaan feeling2 atau tersangkut paut dengan lirik di atas. Tapi pada pendapat saya lirik itu sangat puitis atau pun di susun dengan bahasa yang indah.

Did You Know That 2

Remember last week I bought a shoes from Charles & Keith.
While I was parading myself with the new shoes (last week) I saw the url at the box...meaning I can buy their stuff online. That's great isn't it, since I already knew my size, I thought next time I don't have to physically go to their shop that might lead to other unnecessary buying. Since then I did not try to go to their website (actually I totally forgot about it...memory loss syndrome remember!)...until today.

I posted a picture of my shoes at my favourite forum. Somebody got interested and asked me how much, where did i buy it from, does it come in bigger size... well the last question I do not know the answer.

Then I asked her to check on their website ( which I have to google and paste the link back to her).

Well...I'm not sure if the link is good enough for her to find the information she needs but it definitely got me hooked up.

I went ooohhh..waahhhh...emmm.....for me their shoes and bags (yes..they have bags too) are lovely and up to date. With that price...I think it's really worth it..darn cheap!

Ladies....click here and happy shopping ;).

Did You Know That 1

I found this lovely English Style dining set at Perabot Bahagia Giant Bandar Kinrara. Price >RM3K. Very good finishing..but I'm not sure if you can get anything as good as this at a lower price. Normally this type of furniture really expensive (for me)


Then I found other English Style accessories ... at a DIY shop in Bandar Puteri Puchong. Very2 cheap indeed. Everthing is below RM200.


But the finishing is very bad. Sharp edges, not polished, the paint seems like can peel off/ faded easily.

*sigh* you get what you pay.
Ada harga ada rupa....takde harga rupa pun kureng...sama tak dgn org?

Pengembaraan Upin Ipin di 1U

Upin dan Ipin.....pertama kali menonton kerana kami sekeluarga tak pernah menonton siri kartun ini. Lokasi di TGV One Utama. Dhia maisarah terpaksa ditinggalkan di rumah bersama babysitter kesukaannye (bibik lah) untuk mengelak sebarang kejadian yg tidak diingini berlaku.

Komen saya, 10 ke 15 minit yg pertama agak bosan. Selepas mereka sesat di hutan barulah menampakkan kisah pengembaraan yg .....walaupun tak logik (apa kisah..dah namanya kartun) seronok.

Walaupun darwish agak ternganga dan cuba membaca sarikata Bahasa Inggeris yg tertulis di bawah skrin tetapi terlalu pantas untuk tahapnya...dia agak fokus dan cuba memahami apakah yg sedang di tontonnya. Untuk pengetahuan anda, darwish masih kurang cekap memhami bahasa malaysia (apatah lagi bahasa jawa ibundanya). Jadi dia sebenarnya tidak begitu faham dengan bahasa dan cerita upin dan ipin itu. Ia sahih bila sesi terapi petang tadi, darwish tidak dapat menceritakan semula kisah Upin dan Ipin yg ditontonnya kepada Teacher Aini. Haram sepatah teacher aini tak faham. Takpelah awish, pelan2 ok. Mama tau awish boleh buat......jangan main nintendo aje (pesanan utk ayah... jika awish syok sgt main game jgn tengking dia ya...pelan2 cakap ok).

Selepas menonton wayang, awish dan mina kelaparan lagi (sebelum masuk wayang dah makan kek secret recipe, sebungkus twisties, sebondong pop corn)...dan meminta **D..urghh! Setelah makan barulah dapat meronda-ronda di 1U yg sangat besar itu. Walaupun sudah acapkali kami ke 1U, tak pernah rasanya saya dapat pergi ke semua kedai di semua tingkat di semua seksyen.

Walaupun saya membeli kasut tambahan sebagai langkah berjaga-jaga kononnye untuk berjalan-jalan dengan lebih selesa....malangnya tindakan saya kurang bijak. Kasut itu (hitam) lebih memenatkan berbanding snickers yg warnanya (coklat cair keorenan) agak kurang sesuai dengan pakaian saya semalam ( itu sebab beli warna hitam...oren sungguh tak matching dengan jeans biru gelap).


Kemudian, teruskn usaha mencari kasut futsal ayah. Seperti biasa yg ayah berkenan pasti tiada saiz yg di cari. Kalau ada pun yg ayah berkenan yg harganya agak melampau jika difikirkan kegunaannya adalah untuk menyepak bola sahaja.

Maka gigih jualah saya membawa mereka semua meronda sebab awish dan mina pun memerlukan kasut yg semengah untuk pergi ke majlis perkahwinan sepupu (ya sepupu mereka ramai yg dah akil baligh, sudah berkerjaya dan layak bernikah). Oh...termasuklah kasut saya juga (mestilah takkan dah penat sampai nak tercabut kaki tapi tiada habuan untuk saya).

Sama ada saya tersalah haluan atau tidak saya kurang pasti sbb saya tidak begitu fasih selok belok susunan kedai di 1U (kena repeat banyak kali ni supaya lebih fasih untuk memudahkan proses membeli belah di masa depan ya ayah!) Saya dapati sangat kurang kedai menjual kasut kanak2 lelaki dan perempuan (yg harganya berpatutan dengan kenipisan poket saya). Akhirnya saya dapat membeli Sport shoes BubbleGummers (Bata) untuk darwish. Agak kecewa sbb kasut untuk ermina tiada saiz yg sepadan (hampeh).
Ayah masih hampa ketika ini..di BATA pun tiada saiz (kaki apa ayah ni...kaki bangku kot). Seterusnye ke Adidas ..hampa lagi. Ke Nike...oh sungguh lama promoter itu mencari stok saiz kaki (bangku) ayah..letih ...kasut mina tak dapat lagi..charles n Keith dah melambai-lambai sejak tadi lagi (tadi masuk dah tp mina n awish berkejar-kejaran bagaikan di zoo ..terpaksalah mama lupakan dulu..malu ramai org ketika itu).

Sementara menunggu promoter nike tu mencari...mama ambil keputusan untuk membawa mina sahaja mencari kasutnya. Penat berjalan..hampa jua..apahal takde jual kasut ni?
Sudahnya saya masuk ke FOS...wahhh buntang mata saya kerana cantik-cantik sungguh baju kanak2 di sini. Baru sahaja mencapai sehelai gaun berwarna peach (warna tema perkahwinan sepupunya itu) mina memberitahu keinginannya untuk membuang air kecil (kali yg ketiga...adoiiilahhh). Terpaksalah saya letakkan kembali gaun itu lantas bergegas ke tandas.

Risau jika ayah mencari maka saya mencari ayah dan darwish semula dah terlupa gaun di FOS. Akhirnya ayah berjaya membeli kasut futsal walaupun rekabentuknya kurang menarik (katanya....tapi mama tengok lawa je sebab ada calit kan).

Kemudian kami meneruskan pencarian kasut mina, tetapi ayah dan awish tergendala di kedai menjual alat permainan err...game! Oklah saya teruskan bersama mina ke parkson...pasti ada sbb dimana-mana parkson pasti ada seksyen kanak2kan.

Saya belum mengalah lagi (macam perang lak). Setibanya saya di bahagian kasut kanak-kanak, saya terus berkaki ayam (ya saya buka kasut sbb penat yg amat sangat). Saya bernasib baik setelah 5 kasut pertama yg saya berkenan tiada saiz yg sepadan kerana rekabentuk nya untuk kanak2 yg berumur 7 tahun ke atas (ya saya tak sabar untuk melihat mina melaram macam saya hahaha). Akhirnya saya telah menapis kepada 2 pilihan iaitu
yang ini

dan yang ini


Akhirnya setelah berbincang saya putuskan untuk membeli yang ini...lihatlah senyuman ituuuu


Sungguh panjang entry ini...seperti karangan bahasa melayu Tingakatan 6 (ada ka?)..

Wedding @ De' Seri Endon


Last Friday, 6th March, I went to a colleague wedding. The bride is from our styling dept. I just get to know that she's a daughter of 'someone' (ye org lain pun, i know). Whoever the wedding planner is, they have done a really good job. I really like the decoration. Its simple but nice.

Not to forget, I have the opportunity to see other guest fabuluos dressing, make-up, handbag, shoes and the infamous the late Datin Seri Endon hairstyle (uhuks!).

However, I did not stay long, I was extremely tired that night. The dinner was a bit late, around 9.30, which is about 2 hours late from my normal routine. We can't eat if the 'Pengantin' still 'bersanding'....so from 8.15 to 9.30....for me it felt like forever! Lapaarrr...

Before 10 we make our move, I did not wait for the desert, cos I can't lift my eyelids. The bride and the groom still having their dinner so I left without 'salam'. So rude isn't it? Wish I had more energy left so that I can stay longer and join my other collegue to meet up with the brides and salam.

Before closing this entry....look at my 'perasan' picture here. See....my eyes looks horrible!
