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 #0247 - Happily Ever After, reception

Dear Earthlings, 

Everything was detailed out by the bride's mother, from the flower arrangement up to entertainment. And everything was beautiful. 

Here are the pictures. 

The door gift -


The most I loved was the food. Obviously.   


The guests were entertained by the dancers -

And serenaded by the one and only, the bride's brother - Nik Irfan


The best thing of going to a wedding is the family meet up. Managed to get this picture only. Meet Puan Dara, who is now busy with her next project

Post #0246 - Happily Ever After

Dear Earthlings, 
I finally had the time to watch Raikan Cinta, Ch 104 Astro.
Last night show was a special one as it was featuring the newly wed Nona & Mateen. If you missed it, Raikan Cinta runs on Sunday 7pm, rerun on Wednesday 10:30pm, Friday 5pm and Saturday 9am. Hands down. Everything is beautiful, from the preparation up to the receptions.
 

The solemnization was held on 12 December 2012 at Royale Bintang, Damansara which attended by close family and friends.


I didn’t go since it was held on weeknight, but my parents and sister did. Hence, the pictures are all from my preggie sistah.  
  



The best men and the bridemaids.
 

Hantaran.
From the bride to the groom -


From the groom to the bride (a total of 21) -



The cake and the doorgift - 

 
 

And the lovely couple -


On Friday, the reception was held in Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur. For this reception, I will continue later.
