Our Mini Garden

hello to 2015's first post..

Asssalamualaikum..

dah berkurun lamanya blog ni terbiar..i still couldn't find the time and space to do updates..kadang bila ada masa, ruang pula tiada..

i am always occupied these days, be it with the kids or household chores or even any other chores..and i prefer it that way though..it takes my mind off of things..

anyways, me and my husband have finally found a thing, a hobby i would say, that makes us happy and occupied..we finally enjoy gardening..

inilah taman di laman kami yang kami siapkan sendiri :)

we used to have a "properly maintained and attended" lawn last year but it "went" away..sedih pulak bila tgk laman macam tak berjaga dan pokok semua layu dimamah matahari..dah la upah orang untuk bina dan tanam segala rumput dan pokok..takkan nak upah orang lagi kan, so we decided to do our own gardening..macam la hebat sgt kan nak tanam pokok sendiri, tapi bagi kami baik buat sendiri dari upah orang lagi sekali..kalau tak menjadi pun tak mengapa sebab salah sendiri..teehee :)

setelah melawat ke beberapa nursery di kawasan berhampiran, we bought few plants from Nilai Landscape and few mores from Barokah Nursery and Landscape..sebenarnya nursery2 ni takdelah murah and pilihan tak byk..we decided to buy from Nilai Landscape because they were having membership discounts for CNY sale..Barokah pulak memang tempat kami mencari baja organik, dah alang2 tu kami beli la beberapa pokok..

pokok bunga guzmania, kami panggil pokok dragon..pokok ni tak digalakkan berada di bawah panas terik matahari..

pokok lavender..pokok ni sebenarnya tak tahan panas tapi kami diberitahu oleh pekerja nursery yang pokok ni boleh diletakkan under sunlight..dah balik baru tau, tu pun sebab google..ada tang cakap pokok ni tak tahan lama dalam cuaca Malaysia ni, tapi Alhamdulillah pokok ni masih kembang mekar walaupun dah 3 bulan berada di bawah panas terik matahari..

pokok kemboja, ada yg kata pokok jeliti..

cantik sgt bila dah membiak..pokok paling senang nak jaga..

yang tengah tu kami panggil pokok T-Systems sebab warna batangnya ialah warna rasmi T-Systems..nampak sgt suami sy sayang kat company dia kan sampai pokok pun dia namakan pokok company dia..pokok ni memang cepat membiak, memang kembang mekar..pokok ni senang jugak la nak jaga tapi kena siram sekurang-kurangnya sekali sehari..

  tgh tu pokok bunga tahi ayam..pokok paling senang dijaga, less maintenance..

our mini garden ni taklah semeriah atau secantik dan sekemas mana..but it is the result of our hardworks and own efforts..kami suami isteri gigih meluangkan waktu menyiram pokok tak kira masa, pagi siram dgn air biasa, tghari siram menggunakan air basuhan beras, petang guna air biasa..kalau ada beli ikan, kami simpan air basuhan ikan untuk dijadikan air siraman pokok..sampai mcm tu sekali kami jaga pokok..sayang punya pasal..

Alhamdulillah, kami diberikan rezeki untuk memiliki sebuah rumah yang punya tanah..daripada terbiar macam itu je, baik kami hiaskan laman walaupun cacarmarba ikut suka hati kami je kan..

naik jugak la seri rumah walau tak kemas..

jalan-jalan KL Birds Park

Assalamualaikum :)

first of all, saya memohon maaf sebab entri kali ini ditulis dalam BM dan BM saya agak bersepah..they say practice makes perfect ;)

tajuk macam aktiviti hebat padahal tak hebat mana pun..hebat jugak la sebab kami berjaya melawat KL BirdsPark tanpa  budak 2 beradik ni buat perangai dan dalam keadaan cuaca yang tak menentu..hujung tahun kan musim tengkujuh, hujan sokmo..

last week, on the 9th, kami berjalan ke KL Birds Park..bawa budak 2 beradik ni jalan-jalan..sekali sekala bawa mereka mengenali alam semulajadi kan, takkan la nak pusing shopping kompleks je kan..buat menghabiskan duit je, nanti mesti ada terbeli itu terminat ini la..lagipun kebetulan cuaca hari tu panas, maka apa salahnya kita buat aktiviti luar..mak budak ni pun perlukan aktiviti bakar lemak ha..kiranya satu senaman la untuk maknya, turun naik bukit..

cantik kan burung merak ni? peramah pulak tu, tak takut manusia langsung..kita jalan sebelah pun dia tak heran..siap jalan seiring sejalan lagi..

burung-burung kat KL Birds Park memang tak takut manusia la..lagi datang dekat ada la..i guess inilah yatikan utama taman burung ni..

harga tiket untuk dewasa dalam rm25 (mykad) dan kanak-kanak rm12..mula-mula tu rasa macam mahal jugak, tapi bila dah masuk baru rasa macam okay harganya sebab taman ni memang besar dan burung sangat la banyak..memang patut la harga macam tu sebab nk cover segala macam kos kan..

KL Birds Park ni ada banyak zone..the first zone yg kita masuk ialah free-roaming zone..burung terbang, jalan, makan sebelah kita je..mula-mula tu takut jugak, dah banyak sangat jadi macam okay je..budak-budak memang suka kat sini sebab main kejar-kejar dgn burung..tapi biasa la, anak saya jenis lambat, budak 2 tu jenis observe dulu..dh lama baru nak kejar burung..

laluan jalan kat zone ni agak licin sebab selalu dibersihkan atas sebab-sebab hygiene..sana sini mesti ada sisa-sia buangan burung-burung tu..makanya kena berhati-hati bila berjalan..kat sini ada kiosk makanan ringan, tapi kiosk ni pun byk burung melepak..so orang beli makanan, makan somewhere nearby ditemani burung yang sibuk nak sikit makanan kita..

the next zone ni kawasan burung yang dalam cage..ada hornbills, ostrich, parrots, owls, etc..monyet pun ada..

mula-mula terkejut jugak tgk monyet lepak kat tepi burung..tapi dh burung tu buat tak tau, kita pun buat tak tau je la...

cuma yg bagusnya zone ni agak bersih la sebab burung semua dalam sangkar kan....they do their business inside their cages la kan..teehee..they also have educational center, photobooth, a small kiosk and even a restaurant..photobooth kat sini lagi besar dr yg kat zone mula-mula..tapi harga pun lagi mahal..

perkara paling penting kalau nak datang, sila lah pakai pakaian dan sepatu yang bersesuaian..KL Birds Park ni terletak kat lereng bukit..jalan pun ada yang licin..lupakanlah high heel bagai..saya pakai sandal je, husband pun pakai selipar biasa je..kaki pun tak sakit nak turun naik bukit..tapi letih jugak la nak menolak stroller gedabak tu ha..

walaupun letih, saya rasa berbaloi sebab budak 2 beradik tu happy berlari sana sini, muka kagum tgk burung..

kanak-kanak mesti suka..

to my HIGHSCHOOL SWEETHEART: happy 13th anniversary

happy 13th anniversary love

we survived 13 wonderful years together since 2001..we were just 17 when we met..and look at where we are now..isn't this wonderful? to me it is beyond wonderful..this is my fairy tale..


who would have thought that we could go this far, and be this strong..i think, we, somehow and somewhere, also thought that this relationship would end when we ended our schooldays..that was what we've been fed by those around us, telling us that this relationship won't last long because we because we are just a bunch of school kids who found love during schooldays and know nothing about love.. and hey, we proved me them wrong, don't we?


and who would've thought that you, the city boy, and me, the nomad girl, would make a great team..well, don't they say opposite attracts?


i love you..you are my knight in shining armor.. you helped me sort my life and provided me directions..you were there when the world chose to turn one eye on me..you strengthen my sense of independence and built my self-esteem..you showed me that life will never fail us if we have faith..you showed me life and love..and i am thankful for that..i do and forever will..


thank you..thank you for sticking, always by my side..i used to think that you were stuck but now i believe that you choose to be stuck with me..thank you for not regretting the choices that we made.. i knew that i have made so many foolish mistakes and decisions without consulting you, but you brushed my fear away saying that everything will be okay..thank you for putting me first, on top of others..you always put my best interest before yours..i am sorry that i can't do the same to you, though i tried so many times to put you before myself..i failed but you always said that it's okay, and you are happy that i tried..

thank you for always trying your best..
thank you..
thank you for always trying your best..you are the best man in my life..
you were my past, you are my present, and you will be my future..
thank you for not missing all the meaningful events in our life..
you were there, motivating me when i got scared of what will hapen after we finished school..
you were there, assuring me that i'll be just fine when i got my first job while waiting for SPM's result..
you were there, congratulating me when i got enrolled into UiTM..
you were there, comforting me when my family moved to Langkawi, Kota Kinabalu, then Kuala Krai..
you were there, supporting me while i struggled with homesickness and stress of studying..
you were there, asking me to do my best when i got my first permanent job..
you were there, encouraging me to fight till the end when i started my Master's degree..
you were there, nervous when your family came to "risik" me for you..
you were there, trembling with joy and fear when you said "aku terima nikahnya"..
you were there, beaming with joy when we did our first pregancy test..
you were there, telling me it's okay when i decided to quit my job..
you were there, being a man you could when i was in labour..
you were there witnessing the birth of our first child.
you were there, smiling when i was offered my current job..
you were there, telling me don't worry on my first day of working, the very same day we had to put our fist child in someone else's care.
you were there, smiling from ear to ear when we moved to our very own home..
you were there, again beaming with joy when we did another pregnancy test..
you were there, being a man i know you are, witnessing the birth of our second child..
and you are here, never letting me go and never wanting to miss any events we might have in the future..

i forgive you for sometimes getting on my nerves..you never understand the hidden message behind my silence treatments and my mood swings..you made me mad when you asked questions, and when you didn't really help with the kids because you were tired..i should have known that men are never good at remembering things and that i expect you to not fall in that category..silly me..i know that there is no such thing like a perfect husband and we both know that i am not the perfect wife you imagined i would be and you are not one too..but with all of that efforts and tolerance, you are almost there..despite all of my antics, you still think i'm cute and irresistible and you love me for that..

so please forgive me for sometimes hating you, blaming you for all the mishaps that had happened..

i love you..thank you for the wonderful 13 years..i know thank you isn't enough but thank you and thank you..i loved you yesterday, i love you today and i will love you like i always do tomorrow and forever..

to my husband, i couldn't promise you forever but i can definitely promise that you have me, forever with you..

i love you..

i do..

Wishlist#1

sejak dh makin tua ni dh makin dewasa dan matang ni, minat kepada barang yg lebih kedewasaan tu makin meninggi..perubahan hormonkah?

kalo muda remaja dulu, brand yg utk muda belia menjadi target utama..
sekarang ni, kami dh mula berminat kat brand yg lebih keperempuanan dan keibuan..
hahaha..apakah? kenapakah?
adakah naluri keibuan semakin meningkat?

nah, ni dia brg pertama yg kami terliur untuk tahun ni..
Coach Bleecker Cooper..

harga? tgk kat website coach rm1800 mcm tu la..memang akan pokai..makanya, without a doubt akan terus berada di dlm wish list smpai bila-bila la ni..tapi kan hubs ckp kwn dia blh tlg belikan kat us, dia boleh belikan bwh rm1000..and besides, dia ada colleague yg keja kat us..and plus, hubs tau kalo beli kat premium outlet sana mmg boleh dpt murah..kan hari tu dia borong persiapan raya kami anak beranak kat Texas..
tapi still akan buat kami pokai jugak walaupun boleh dpt bwh dr rm1000..

makanya, item ini akan tetap jadi wishlist je la..

new stroller in the house: Baby Jogger City Select Double/Tandem

Assalamualaikum.. apa khabar semua? harap sihat lah hendaknya ye.. kami di sini Alhamdulillah sihat sentiasa..sy pun dh start keja dh.. rasa mcm lemau je nk g keja mengenangkan fatinah yg terpaksa ditinggalkan di daycare.. tapi apakan daya, demi sesuap nasi kena la tabahkan hati kan.. kali ni, sementara punya waktu lapang di ofis ni, sy nk bercerita tentang stroller baru kami..

yay, gembira yg sgt dpt beli stroller ni..biarlah pokai gile pun tapi asalkan dpt stoller idaman ni, mau tak pokai harga dekat 3k weh..lepas buat byr wish tu selama 2 bln tau tak anak-anak ku oii.. tapi takpelah, demi anak-anak.. so far, anak-anak memang suka stroller ni, mak dia lagi la..senang keja kami..takyah pening nk tolak dua stroller asing-asing. takyah pening nk dukung sorg sementara sorg lagi duk dlm stroller.. and parents boleh choose nak letak anak mcm mana..dua-dua facing dpn boleh, dua-dua faing mak bapak boleh, sorg facing dpn sorg facing mak pun boleh..facing each other pun boleh..syok kan..

setakat ni, kami cuma buat mereka facing kami je..sbb si adik kecik lagi kan..jadi bila dia nmpk muka mak dia yg tak berapa ayu ni, dia rasa selamat la.. kenapa kami beli tandem stroller ni? anak kami yg sulung tu mmg tak suka berjalan..abis lama dia berjalan pun 5 minit, lepas tu dia buat drama mintak kita dukung..ko sanggup ke dukung budak 19kg lama-lama? boleh patah pinggang..si adiknya pulak tak suka org dukung lama2..dia nk baring..jadi lupakanlah harapan nk guna sling wrap ke baby carrier ke sbb mmg dia tak mau..

ada org tanya kenapa tak beli asing-asing? beli je la lagi satu sbb dh ada sau kan..mcm ni la, kami ni berdua je..takde org gaji ke adik2 yg selalu ikut kami..jadi kalo kami ada dua stroller, makanya masing-masing kena handle satu stroller. kalo setakat jln2 biasa boleh la..cuba time nk g beli brg dapur, sape nk tolak shopping trolley tu..si Firash mmg takkan duk dlm trolley tu..confirm dia akan buat drama kat situ.. maka sbb tu la kami gagahkan diri beli baby jogger city select double ni..mmg la mahal benar, besar benar and berat tapi lama2 okay je..mmg la makan space, wish yg besar tu pun kami rasa mcm kecik je bila dh simpan stroller ni kat belakang..sebenarnya takde la besar mana, muat je masuk montot myvi (kena cabut tayar ye).. lagipun stroller ni blh je jadi single stroller..jadi takdelah istilah membazir bila anak-anak dh besar nanti, dh taknak duk dlm stroller ni.. so overall, mmg memuaskan hati..syok pun ada..si abg tu, masa mula2 beli, asyik nk duk dlm ni je..

kalo ada parents yg teringin tapi tak pasti nak ke tak, boleh la g parkson..ada jual kat parkson..boleh godek2 kat situ..yelah, kena test drive baru la tau kan sesuai ke tak..harga? tak sure pulak berapa kat parkson..kami beli kat kedai Fabulous Mom, masa tu tgh sale (from 3+++ jadi 2499) tu yg tak fikir pjg dh tu, terus beli dh walaupun lepas beli tu terus rasa sesak nafas sbb kena ikat budget..

newborn baby kembung perut@colic@sarat(bahasa kelantan)

Assalamualaikum semua..

sihat? semoga sihat sentiasalah hendaknya..

Alhamdulillah, usia baby sy dh 23 hari (hari baru, belum bulan)..

kesihatan sy pun dh semakin baik, semakin cergas..mcm mana tak cergas, segala jenis ubat dan herba sy telan..berpantang kali ni sy consume Shaklee atas cadangan ofismate..sgt best dan berbaloi..selain dr tu sy juga minum jeli gamat supaya luka kat bwh tu cepat sembuh..air rebusan manjakani pun sy minum hari2 tapi kdg2 ngelat jugak la sbb pahitnya yg amat..

oh ya, sy sebenarnya nak bercerita ttg salah satu sakit yg common among babies (menurut google ye)..

adik Fatinah baru2 ni meragam yg amat sgt..the first 17 days tu adik okay je, tak byk meragam..tido mlm pun okay..tapi itu semua sementara je rupanya..adik sh mula meragam especially malam.asyik nangis je, nyusu pun payah, taknak tido atas tilam, nk org riba je..lepas tu kejap2 nangis smpai org igtkan kena sawan tangis..kdg2 tu kami igtkan adik kena gangguan ke apa ke..dia punya nangis tu smpai merah muka (nasib baik tak biru)..

disebabkan tokmanya risaukan cucunya, tokma dia ajak la papanya Fatinah g berubat, tgk kenapa..rupanya adik Fatinah ada penyakit sarat, org luar kelantan panggil kembung perut atau nama medicalnya colic..sakit ni mmg common among newborn babies (kata google) and ada tu smpai umur 4 bulan br hilang..tapi jgn risau sbb ianya akan hilang dgn sendirinya..ish, tapi kan mak bapak mana la yg takkan risau kalo anak yg br lahir nangis tak henti berjam lamanya..

and it turned out that i too had this before..bukan sy je, adik2 sy pun kena jugak dan ada sepupu2 yg senasib..keturunan rupanya..kesian adik, kenapa la sakit ni jugak yg adik dpt dr mama adik oi..adik tak ikut rupa mama tapi adik ikut perangai dan hal2 lain ye adik ye..abg Firash pulak fotostat muka mama tapi perangai dan lain2 tu ikut papa..my mum ckp sy dulu masa kecik pun ada sakit ni, in fact menurut mak sedara dan nenek sy, sy dulu lagi teruk dr adik Fatinah..mlm mmg tak tido langsung, nangis je keja..adik ni tido jugak la..

 kesian adik, kami tak sanggup nk tgk anak yg baru lahir nangis tak henti..

disebabkan tak tahan tgk adik nangis, bermacam tempat jugak la kami pergi..mula2 g jumpa poksu kat banggol kuim, dia bg air tawar dan kapur utk sapu kat perut..lepas tu kami ke labok pulak, jumpa pokya mintak dia urutkan adik..

esoknya, misi/nurse dtg rumah check sy dan baby..my mum bgtau la misi tu yg adik meragam mlm2 sakit sarat, pastu ada misi ckp anak dia dulu pun kena mcm ni jugak and dia cadangkan kami g jumpa Dr.Shafee..misi ckp ubat dia molek..ptg tu jugak my mum g clinic bw baby..Dr prescribed ubat utk adik..

tak puas hati, esoknya pulak, tokma ajak kami g jumpa tok bidan kg..ada sedara mara kami ckp toksu tu boleh tgkkan baby sakit sarat..maka kami pun ke sana la..kali ni sy pun ikut sekali sbb toksu nak mak baby ada sekali..

Alhamdulillah, sekarang ni adik dh jrg nangis malam..adik pun kerap kentut je..bagus la kan, tu tandanya angin dh kuar dr bdn adik..kami pun tak tau la rawatan mana yg serasi dgn adik, yg urut ke atau yg ubat ke atau yg air tawar ke..

selain dr g jumpa tukang urut dan tok bidan, kami jugak sapukan minyak telon Bayini..sebelum ni kami sapu vicks baby je..kali ni dh tukar guna minyak bayini pulak sbb lagi panas dan sesuai utk baby  yg ada angin ni..

kami tak guna minyak yuyi sbb hubs sy tak suka..hehehe..boleh pulak mcm tu kan..lagi satu, gripe water mmg kena sentiasa ada..agak berkesan untuk mecegah angin kembung..gripe water tu mmg ada la, mmg sentiasa bagi..abg Firash dulu pun guna gripe water ni jugak..

harap2 adik akan cepat sihat..kesian adik, asyik nangis je bila malam (yelah mlm kan sejuk, angin lagi senang masuk bdn)..papa mama dgn tokma pun dh tak letih dh adik, campur dh tak tau nk buat apa bila adik meragam..

cuti berpantang: 2 weeks

Assalamualaikum semua..

apa khabar? harap sihat la ye semuanya..

saya pun sihat Alhamdulillah..baby pun sihat..

Alhamdulillah, sy selamat melahirkan baby no 2 pd 7 November 2013..edd was 15/16 Nov..adik nk kuar awal seminggu, sama mcm abg dia..Alhamdulillah, it's a girl, Fatinah Zainab bt Mohd Fahami..

dan Alhamdulillah, proses bersalin adik pun agak senang mcm abg dia..pagi tu sy start rasa sakit pkl 8 pagi, masa tu tgh antar abg kat daycare/taska..tapi sy rasa mcm sakit sikit je ni so sy terus la ke ofis..smpai ofis rasa mcm sakit mcm kerap dan kuat..rasa mcm semacam je sakit ni so pun google la tanda sakit contraction bagai..dlm pkl 10 mcm tu sy decide baik g hospital, so sy bgtau bos la yg sy nk blk sakit..hahaha, berbakul kena marah dgn bos, sampaikan dia siap offer nk antarkan ke hospital..sy ckp takpelah sbb sy akan call hubs kejap lagi, yg akan smpai dlm 10mins sbb kami sama2 keja di cyberjaya..okay, so sy pun kemas meja, kemas brg sambil g jumpa teammates bagai, siap peluk cium bagai pdhal tgh sakit ni..bos siap escort smpai ke lobby tau..so i left office pkl 11lebih and terus ke Columbia Asia Balakong..smpai dlm pkl 12, igt nk jumpa Dr.Norshida dulu tapi nurse ckp q pjg lagi so dia akan antar sy ke labour room utk monitor contraction dulu pastu baru dia akan panggil Dr.Norshida..so kami naik la atas, buat ctg bagai..nurse ckp contraction tak kuag mana so dia nk check bukaan jap..masa tu pkl 1, dia check dia terkejut sbb katanya dh 5cm..terus dia kata awak bersalin hari ni ye, jgn blk sbb dh 5cm ni..so sy pun okay la, tukar baju hospital, siap2 utk tunggu dr..dlm pkl 2 nurse dtg check bukaan dh 8cm, terus diorg kelam kabut sbb masa tu Dr.Norshida ada operation c-sect patient dia..nasib baik la air ketuban masa tu tak pecah lagi, kalo tak mesti baby kuar tanpa doctor..tunggu punya tunggu, doctor dtg pkl 3, dia cek dh fully dilated and dia pecahkan air pastu 3.35 lahir la adik..masa tu lega gila rasanya..mcm ni rupanya rasa sakit bersalin yg sebenar..masa abg hari tu sy dimasukkan ubat air apa ntah utk cepatkan bukaan..ada ubat apa ntah tapi bukan induce ye..just ubat apa ntah.. bukaan masa abg tu pun cepat jugak, ubat masuk pkl 6 abg kuar pkl 9..yg adik ni tak payah buat apa, bukaan mmg buka cepat dgn sendiri..takde amik ubat apa, pain killer pun tak amik..sy cuma tahan sakit guna gas ethonox tu je..

fuhh..Alhamdulillah, pengalaman bersalin kedua dua anak sy mmg mudah..terima kasih buat suami yg setia dan sentiasa ada di sisi semasa di labour room menemani sy melahirkan anak-anak..dan juga doa dan redha suami adalah pemudah segala urusan bersalin..

sekarang ni kami sedang menghabiskan pantang di kg..setakat ni sy dh rasa segar dh, luka jahitan kat bwh tu pun dh sembuh..yay..jahit? jahit jugak la walaupun tak gunting sbb sy terangkat punggung masa meneran nk kuarkan adik..tapi nasib baik 2 jahitan je..so sekarang ni sy dh blh buat kerja sikit2 mcm uruskan mandi, makan, rehat si abg..adik pulak tokma dia yg uruskan sbb mama dia ni takut nk uruskan adik yg masih lembut..nasib baik la hubs sy tu berani so bila dia blk, dia la yg uruskan adik..boleh la tokma rehat..

oh ya, pd sesiapa yg mintak no Ah-Fatt, nanti lepas sy abis pantang sy emailkn no Ah-Fatt ye..buat masa ni sy online guna handphone, tu pun sekali sekala sbb kat rumah ni bukannya guna unifi, streamyx je..

Antenatal Check-ups at Gov Clinic or Private Hospital :My Story (part 2)

Assalamualaikum..

Baiklah, ini sambungan entry sebelum ni (terpaksa buat 2 entry sbb takut pjg sgt).. I already told u why we opted for a private hospital for our first child. And when we found out that we are expecting our second, my hubs ckp better go for private jugak la.. And ramai yg ckp2 kenapa g private, tak g gov clinic/hosp je..ada sebabnya kan (sila baca entry sebelum ni)..ada yg ckp kami ni perasan kaya la, nk menunjuk la..ya Allah, anda tak rasa apa yg sy rasa..dy dh serik ditolak ke hulu hilir oleh nurse2 tu..Biarlah kan org nk kata apa..

Ada sebabnya kami decided terus ke private hospital for our 2nd baby..

1) Our appointment with our ob-gynae is on Saturday..utk org yg baru dpt tetap and payah cuti, this is the best option..kalo klinik gov, u have to come on weekdays which is a big problem to me..mmg la ada annual leave bagai, tapi I only earn 1 day a month..so memandangkan baru keja ni, berapa je cuti yg sy dpt sepanjang 1 thn bekerja..tolak cuti yg terpaksa guna sbb anak sakit , cuti raya bagi..jadi cuti mmg kosong, nk tgk angka 1 tu mmg payah..kalo ada je cuti, terpaksa guna anak sakit la itu la ini la..so the best option is for me to have appointment on Saturday je la..private je la yg buka klinik hari sabtu..

2) We can choose our attending ob-gynae..Seriously, this is the main reason why my hubs insists on going to private hospitals. We get to choose our ob-gynae..kalo kat hov hosp selalubya duorg akan assign mana2 doctor yg ada je la..

our first ob-gynae was Dr.Habibah..i like her..very motherly..and she drives an Audi (stalker kan)…for our second child ni, we choose Dr.Norshidah kat Cloumbia Asia Cheras (Balakong)..i like her too..very warm, friendly and nice..so far, dia mmg byk membantu everytime we see her..in shaa Allah, Dr.Norshidah akan sambut kelahiran baby no 2 ni..

3) Husband is allowed in the labor room..this is also our main reason for choosing private hospitals..selalunya kalo bersalin kat gov ni, husband takleh masuk..i think ada je gov hospital yg boleh tapi tak semua la kan..my husband was there when I gave birth to my first child. He gave me strength and hope that I needed. He was the one who taught me how to push, hot to count my breathing..he was afraid to be there at first, but he said when he saw his son’s hair, he suddenly felt excited and thrilled. So he kept on asking me to push and push and push..to him, it was definitely an experience he will never forget, an eye opener to how difficult and painful it is to give birth. He said he now knows why mothers are special and amazing...

4) The environment. To be honest, I am one person yg mmg agak cerewet..everything has to be according to my way of arranging ke, organizing etc..so bila kat private hospital ni, there’s a guaranteed privacy.. 5) Lastly the cost..not that I think it is cheaper..what I mean is that we don’t really have to fork out our own money pun..semuanya company hubs yg tanggung, from antenatal check-ups to the delivery and to the post-natal check-up..we just have to call the hospital or the company’s insurance provide for GL..itu je..tu yg my hubs ckp kita g private je la dgn muka gembiranya..rupanya sbb dia tak yah kuarkan duit pun..well, maybe kena tmbh sikit la..tu pun utk charges masa bersalin sbb i think he said the GL only covers up to 2.5k ke 3k ntah..

U see, there’s a reason why we opt for private hospitals.

12th year..

The first year 

felt

awkward, and,

our second year

had

a sense of everything, so,

we

made our third year

exciting,

and let,

our fourth

became unpredictable, but,

we

were

determined

to make our fifth

wonderful.

Our sixth,,

then

was

near perfect,

we

endured

everything

on our seventh year.

then came our eighth,

full of joy and sorrow, 

and, so,

we knew

our ninth year together

must be

super special,

and then,

our tenth year

gave

us

the biggest gift of all.

We

fell

way more than heads-over-heels

in love

in our eleventh year,

and, now,

it's our twelfths year,

together,

wishing,

it will be forever.

our 11th year anniversary

 hey there peeps..
how's ur day?

 as the title suggests, today marks me and my husband's 11th year anniversary..
we met in early 2001 at our school's prefect meeting..that was the first time we laid eyes on each other (chewahhh)..we became friends for about a month and then mister hubby asked the question and of course i said yes..
we declared the relationship on 17th February 2001..
we had quite a long relationship, and decided to tie the knot and made it official on 5th June 2010..

it has been 11 years since..

taken when we were in pd for our school's prefect dinner back in 2001, 

we have gone through many things, many happiness and hurdles as well..we went through bittersweet moments..of course, there were times when we got mad at each other, (but we never yell at each other) and times when we felt that we were never on the same page (but we found ways to make things work)..there were times when he annoyed me so much but then that's who he is..he could tolerate my inconsistent  mood and behaviors and so i knew that i should ignore his..we even experienced financial difficulties together (yelah, masa tu sama-sama tgh belajar, mana nk ada duit sgt)..if he had extra money, he would give me half..and if i knew he didn't have much money, i would give him half of what i had at that time..yelah, dh sama-sama angau, sama-sama la susah kan, takkan nk senang je sama-sama, tak adil la..kdg2, kalau papa top-up credit lebih, cthnya papa top-up rm30, i would transfer to him rm15..so selalu kalu credit hp dh nk kurang, i would ask papa to top-up pastu i would share with mister hubby..hehee..

zaman muda-mudi, in 2008

having spent 11 years together makes us realize that we become better when we have each other..we know that we will never worry about life when we have each other..we shape each other's life..
people (mostly my students) ask me, how do i manage to keep the relationship strong..honestly, i don't even know how..i don't have the answer..

back when we were in school, we never though that our relationship would last this long..i though that when the school ends, our relationship would also end..(because there would be no other way for us to see each other everyday)..but boy i was dead wrong (and i'm happy that i was wrong)..hehehe..we kept on contacting each other, through home phone (masa tu handphone ni takde lagi okay,mahal nk mati masa tu,  mau kena ketuk dgn papa kalau mintak handphone)..we met each other on weekends (luckily masa tu family duk usj lagi, belum pindah around the universe lagi)..
so when my family had to move to langkawi (papa kena jadi manager airport langkawi) i was left alone in shah alam (masa tu tgh study kat uitm)..mister hubby was always there for me ever since..he did a lot of things for me and to me and with me..i am grateful for that..when my family moved to sabah from langkawi, i wasn't as sad as i was before..hehehe..because i had my mister with me..so i didn't worry much about being left alone in the peninsular..heheh..

i think, upon reminiscing back our bitter and sweet memories, i guess i now know the answer to how do we keep our relationship strong..we never plan the future..we never think of what will happen to us  in years time..we never worry about what and how to see each other after the school ends..we never think of how many kids to have, when to get married and where to live..we just live our live as it is..as like mister hubby always say, "tk payah susah fikir psl masa depan, tau la kita nk menggayakannya bila smpai masanya nanti, buat  masa ni kita hidup untuk apa yang ada"..

our first raya as huband and wife (in 2010)..muka penat g jln rumah sedara sana sini..

so here's to my mister hubby..

i love you, from the moment we met..

i will always love you, till the end of the world..

i love you, for who you are..

i  love you, for who you will become

and

i thank you, for being you..

Wordless Wednesday 5

A SURPRISE DINNER AT MANDI MANDI TAMARIND SPRING

hey all...
how have u been doing? fine? okay? so-so?
takpelah, yg penting kita happy dan sihat kan..
so this time around, i would like to write about a surprise dinner that my husband had planned to celebrate my birthday..my birthday was in November but we weren't able to do anything due to some unavoidable circumstances and events..so i told my husband that i was quite sad because everyone seemed to not remember my birthday and everyone was busy with only-God-knows-what..even my students didn't wish me which was quite disappointing..my husband apologized then for not being able to do anything on my birthday and for my birthday...it wasn't his fault..i guess i was too sensitive..

anyway, a few weeks had gone by and so last Friday (9 December) my husband  told me that he would want to go to KL..i asked him why and told him to go on Saturday instead because i don't like to be in a rush that Friday (since he had to perform Friday prayer)..but he insisted to go back home on Friday regardless of what i said.. so we went back to his parents home in KL after Friday prayer..and on our way he told me that he had a plan that Friday evening and he wanted to be at Desa Pandan because his sister will look after our baby..so i said okay and asked him where will we go, the only answer he gave was "senyum kalo suka, kalo tak suka bgtau"..he even joked saying that we will go to the zoo..so i said okay, then zoo it will be..he just laughed and asked me to wait..

so we got to this one place where it is surrounded by lush green scenery..my husband told me that he had planned a dinner to celebrate my birthday..i was shocked and quite surprised but thankful nonetheless. i didn't expect him to do such things because he isn't the type of guy who would make surprises and treat his loved ones with gifts and all..i was very happy with what he did and told myself to enjoy the night..

we had our dinner at Mandi Mandi Tamarind Spring, which is one of the best fine-dining restaurants in KL..it is very nice and romantic..it kinda remind me ofde Bali though..it's a hillside restaurant..we didn't take many photos, except the ones taken by the waitress who was very nice..the management doesn't allow any photography to take place..don't know why...

the warm welcome at the table

there are 3 different dining concepts for us to choose..Tamarind Spring offers Indo-Chinese cuisine, Italian cuisine and Malay-Thai cuisine..my husband decided to dine at Mandi Mandi, the place for Malay-Thai cuisine..it was located at the second level of the hill..so we walked down the stairs, walking thru the green landscape that were lit with candles and garden lights..we were entertained by the sound of the frogs and crickets..sadly, we didn't get to sit by the pool or at the hut since it rained earlier that night..sad but that's okay..

yours truly, checking the tab

the food was very delicious and scrumptious. it's worth the price u have to pay..the ambiance made u feel the softness and the richness of the food..we didn't order any appetizers but we considered our Catfish and Mango Salad as our appetizers. it was very good, the catfish was shredded into small pieces and they only used the meat of the fish and mixed them with mango, cashewnuts, and few other vegetables..
then for the main course, i ordered Grilled Beef with Tamarind Sauce..it was delicious except for the tamarind sauce which was a bit sour..but the beef was very nice and tender..my husband ordered Chicken Black Pepper which was very scrumptious..my husband loved it so much that he didn't even want to taste my main course..the black pepper was very tasty and flavorful..i heard the chef made the black pepper himself..

mr.hubster with his coconut drink

we also ordered Tomyam Fried Rice (since my husband couldn't survive his meal without taking rice)..the rice had a unique taste..at first, u will feel the sweetness of it then when u are about to finish ur bite u will feel the spiciness of it..totally worth eating and paying almost rm20 for the fried rice..
for drinks, i decided to try Tamarind Special..it's a mixture of cranberry juice, lychee and a bit of soda..my husband decided to have Pandan Roasted Coconut (being the person who likes coconut)...and lastly, we had Fried Banana with Coconut Ice-Cream as our dessert..the fried banana was very different form the ones that we normally bought and made..it has an aromatic taste to it and i can feel the taste of lemongrass in every bite of it..

overall, i would say that the dinner was very memorable and wonderful (though my husband had to spend quite a quarter of his paycheck)..i would recommend those who would like to have a memorable dining with special ones to check Tamarind Spring out..it's a suitable place for those who do not mind spending a lot money to relax, lay back and enjoy the night with its good food..sekali setahun apa salahnya kan, bukannya selalu pun kita spend lebih sikit utk makan mlm yg istimewa..

thank u B for the dinner and for all the good things u have done for me..i love u, always and forever..
