Post #0218 - What would I do without you

Dear Earthlings, 

During my highschool - uni, we (me and my siblings) would always ask our arwah nenek & mom to pray for us whenever we have to face our exam. My mom would normally perform a solat hajat on the exam day itself. Let say exam starts at 9 am, so she would pray sometime between 9 to 9:30 am. If exam tu untuk 5 hari, maka 5 hari lah akan buat solat hajat.
The candidate herself.. hmm.. subject to kerajinan.

There was a time where I had this one exam (I think it was Corp Financial Management. Yes, I hate this paper so much so I didn't complete the course) and my mom complained to me that she was soooo sleepy whilst praying the hajat. Further, she said that she had this bad feeling that I couldn't pass through the exam. 

It happened to be true, I failed the paper. 

Hehehe.. 

So yesterday, was no exception. 

I had to face the internal exam conducted by the Blue Company. 

 

Feel like I'm taking a PMR because as soon as I finished my exam, my mom called me up. 

Her usual line was - "Boleh buat ke tak boleh?"

And I replied,  

"Masa mami smayang hajat tadi tu ngantok tak?"

Hahaha.

Regardless how old we become, we will always depend on our mom isn't?

In my case she would be the laundrette sorter, my trustworthy babysitter, personal chef.. u name it. Anything under the sun. 

It explains why even dah tua, still kena bebel dengan mak. 

Hahahaha.

I love my mom.

Cliche.

I know.

Post #0275 - Mid Ramadhan

Dear Earthlings,

How time flies! We are now approaching the mid of Ramadhan, which means we have approximately two more weeks before Raya! 

No excuse for me, as this year we are going back to Alor Setar for Raya. Didn't spend much on Raya clothing for me and GadgetGeek. We just rotate which ever that it is already in our closet, except for the kids. 

Bought 2 + 2 metres and asked my mom to jahit baju kurung for Youngster #1. Rezeki budak budak, my mom top up another 4 pasang baju kurung for her, making the total of 6 baju kurung. Bila masa nak pakai pon tak tau. My mom used to jahit our baju sekolah, baju raya.. shoulder bag.. curtain.. you name it.. crochet, cross stitch.. kacang goreng je. 

Now, jahit untuk cucu pulak. 

Same goes to Youngster #2. Asked my mom to jahit. 

But since this is her first time sewing a baju melayu johor, she asked me to take the measurement and cut on the paper so later she can potong kain.

So tawakal je lah apa nak jadi. Cantik or not, doesn't matter. 

Total pieces nak kena amik measurement - body, side, sleeves, pockets, neck line, and also for the pants. 

 

What else.. 

hmm.. 

House chores.. Oh no! Don't let me start on the chores (again)! Can we just leave it alone please. 

Anyways, nothing much happening around us except that the BlueCompany have promoted me to another level. Alhamdulillah, though on a second thought, I feel like maintaining the current position. Simply because, with great power comes a great responsibility. Yeah. .. great lah sangat. 

Haip! Tak boleh komplen banyak sangat.. nanti tak bersyukur pulak. 

(Mostly because takot sangat kepala kena pancung)

Our new residence.. still maintain status quo. 

lol. 

The house still not complete 100%, issues macam wireman balik kampung. Janji nak datang next week (that was 3 weeks ago) still next week tu tak sampai-sampai. Karang if hire orang lain, merajuk pulak. Melayu punya hal. 

So dah give up to countdown, except that GadgetGeek is targeting to go in before end of August.

Oh well.. 

We'll see.

Post #0265 - Until we meet again my dear clutchy

Dear Earthlings, 

In my earlier entry I told that I can never wear this clutch (yet) because it is too expensive for me. Guilty conscious moment. 

Recently, I finally had the guts to use it for the BlueCompany dinner. 

This is the only picture I have with the clutch on. 

Not liking it, because I was not ready at all!

Post #0192 -Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life

Dear Earthlings, 

I think I've been busy lately though I'm not quite sure what has been tiding me up. D'uhh! 

Office workloads are as always, except that I just got to know that my colleagues are part of my silent readers! (*wave* *wave* Miss Shop-a-Lot, Miss Drama-a-Lot and Miss Skinny-a-Lot). It is not that I mind these people know about my private life (It has been a month since I approved my boss on my FB, as well as my colleagues) but it is just a totally new thing for me. I'm sorry because some of them feel like I am not telling the truth.

Previously, I only add my (ex) colleagues once I left the company (and) didn't mixed up between office and personal. But working in the BlueCompany, I guess it has totally changed the landscape.  Mostly because these people are not office mates per se, they are also gossip buddies, good friends as well as fashion polices. If you want the truth (just about anything) go ask them.

Anyways, for the past 5 months, GadgetGeek has been hinting me to stay at home. (haiyaa.. should I be telling you this? Afterall, I bet my colleagues are reading this. wadehek). However, the answer is still NO, as Miss Shop-a-Lot says,
"I work because I'm giving space to my husband and kids"
LOL!

No worries, my condition is simple. I only resign if we need to migrate (or if my boss resigns). If not, whatever I said still stand (for now :)

Like last week.. GadgetGeek asked me to extend my leave. Couldn't do so because of limited leave days I have.

GadgetGeek : Resign jelah.
Me : Don't want lah. Nanti bosan tak kerja. Kids at school the whole day. If ada maid, all housework will be done by her. 
GadgetGeek : That's easy. We remove the maid.

I couldn't believe I'm saying this.
It's not that I don't priorities my family.. I believe that I need to work in order to keep my insanity. I have to admit that it's more tiring to stay at home.
You can just ask my schoolmates. All of them know that my ultimate ambition is not to work but to be a fulltime housewife. But later I realised, I couldn't leave my (current) job and enjoying every minute of it. (this is a true story okay. It is not because I know that my boss is reading this!)

What more, GadgetGeek always on the go. Sometimes he only realises that he needs to fly somewhere on the morning itself. Even worse, I only know that he is outstation, but don't know his whereabout.

Damn. 

I shouldn't be blabbering about this. It always happened when I'm too lazy to upload pictures.

Post #0152 - (the) words

Dear Earthlings,

Constitute An Emergency On My Part"
