It's time for a Rest!

2011-10-28T08:34:00.003+08:00

As the date of my nuptial hour is getting closer, the more hectic i am and i never knew that the list just goes on and on. Holy cow!

I just can't wait to get this OVER soon. It's like i'm off to a war and exhausted at over thinking of strategies to get this over with. I've never stopped sighing since the first day of this marathon prep wedding hahahahha. . . Tu lah! Baru tau! Last minute baru mau buat . . But, i am grateful for having a wonderful and a good criticizer Mom to help me with this event. Without her comments and her ideas, i wouldn't get things 50% done by now. Thank you Lord!!

Well, out of the book,:-

My lil brother who is soon furthering his studies in a local university in Sarawak, will not be able to attend my wedding( sad!). I couldn't give him much but the lovely lappy i had since my first post as an educator is a gift from me to him.

It would then be difficult for me to blog out things and do my blog-jogs in the morning and blog-rounds at night hahahahh. . .

I wouldn't be able to blog much these days. But, i'm sure i would blog out my entry with wedding pictures soon:) Stay tune!

I'll be back in December! (trying to buy anothe new lappy~winks~) Fingers crossed!

::Happy Wedding Kak Sugi::

2011-09-19T22:51:00.014+08:00

It was 14th September , when my family and I went to KK as I had to fly off to Tawau the next morning at 7am to attend a friend's wedding. It was still school days for other schools.(bad teacher!) Not going to school during the school days…Well, that’s not how the story goes.
As we are still temporarily teaching at the premise of the Primary school of SK Chinta Mata, we had to call it a ‘cuti berganti’ as the UPSR examination for sixth grade only finishes late in the afternoon. And teaching in the afternoon session, will just crowd up the premise. The headmaster was afraid that the crowd in the school will affect the students’ examination mood. So, we call it a holiday!Yipeee… and what a coincidence that I had to drive to KK on that day.. I saved a day of my CRK~winks~.

Arriving in Tawau, I had to settle my water and electricity bills.
I didn’t have much time to settle it during the move out process. Carrying stuff down from fourth floor and packing things gave me no ample time to do so.
If I don’t cut it off in time, it will be a problem for those who want to enter the house. My principal was having a head-ache on this matter…~blushing~.
So, I took the my golden opportunity, driving Kak Sugiarti’s car which was a non-power steering on the roads of Tawau while she on the other side of the driver’s seat, just made me wondering whether i could manouver it to where i want it to .. Imagine the jams in Tawau and me turning the steers left and right. Gosh! I guess I don’t need to go to the gym to get my muscles build up. Hahahahah.. . .
What surprised me was that the road that once could be accessed via GIANT was CLOSED. And there was a high way in front of Giant going off straight to SIN ONN. I didn’t get to snap a shot on that.

To make it short: Reached the electricity department, no IC copies, had to run to a shop and get the copies done, drove back to the electricity department and Walah! SETTLED! Another one to go…….

Reached the water department, had my IC copies(good thang I photostated more than 2-just in case), had to go to the ‘Pesuruhjaya’ as I lost my ‘deposit letter’, (I thought I had the original letter in my file at my previous school) so I drove back to my school and got the letter and placed it on the desk of the person in charge)-the person was not there, drove back to town and hitch up a lunch, drove back to the Water department to get the final bill, the person said I got the wrong letter, so, I had to go to Sabindo for the ‘signature of the pesuruhjaya’ and head back to the water department to get the final bill. ~Inhale, Exhale~ Done! But I was in pain as my legs were cramp of driving a manual car…Erk! It Hurts. .But I can’t do nothing but just drive. I can’t ask the bride to drive, right!

I guess enough with the ranting and all. Here’s a few snaps I had taken:-

~The Ring~

~The table set up~

~The 'hantaran' from the bride~

~Here were a few items that i managed to snap~

~I helped to wrap the 'dodols' and kuih glutinous rice as the dowry~

Tadaaa!!!

These were the people behind the scene.

I guess it's not that late to blog about my 5th annivesary.

I did not went for a wonderful dinner at a quintessential European vibe with posh interior decor coupled with whimsical food art.

And dressed in a black one shoulder sequined dress with an assymetrical hemline to make me taller (But i would love to,One day ~winks)

But, amazingly My Honey had bought me a Samsung Galaxy P1000 and a dark brown, leatherly soft cum spacious tote handbag.

It was more than the European dinner and the dress i would die for.

I would not call myself as a gadget-tech fan. I could even live my life with my last years' annivesary present. My E63.

But once i got my hand on this Honeycomb... Man! I was totally into this device and i even could surf even though i was down with FEVER! Hahahahah. . . .

Anyways, thanks for the Prezzie Hon!

Happy Belated Annivesary!

::Walk For Jesus::

2011-08-30T00:13:00.018+08:00

It was 28th August! AND it was the day where all christian members from every dominations gathered together to join hand in hand and complete the 'Walk for Jesus'. The objective of this particular walk is to strengthen the rapport within the different dominations in Tenom while Praying for tranquility and peace for our country.(Well, that's how it goes in my own version of mind speaking but there is absolutely a well detailed objective by the Churchs' Counsels~Winks~)
The walk starts from the Tenom Sport COmplex and ends at the SIB church.That will be two and half kilometres walk. I guess hehhehee.

I surely believed that it would be very difficult to get this Walk a success without the help of christian members and churchs' counsel.

I was happy to be part of the Walk and get all SWEAT up. I even could get another 500ml of salty water bottle if i happen to gather all my sweats.. Hahahaha..Lame idea, i supposed!

::It was Sunday and after church::

Dad is not a Sporty guy type NOW(he was in his much younger days) and i wasn't suprised that he doesn't have a pair of sport shoes. So, we went to this 'lelong@rombengan (whatever you call it)' where used shirts, used pants, used shoes were sold. And, he finally got a new pair of used sport shoes(Thanks to me)~Winks~
We head off home and dad took a rest. While me and Heather enjoyed our time lazying ourselves on the couch, watching TV. Another minute i got bored, and headed off to my laptop in our dining room and continued editing photos that i had taken. I'm not a Pro-photographer, however i wish i would-ONE DAY!!Yikes...

::2.30pm::
The walk starts at 4:30pm and dad is a person who is very punctual at TIME. Me and Heather were busy getting ourselves ready. Heather was not in the mood as she was just washing her track suit (giggled) in the washing machine and i heard it was already at the final stage to drying.She was mumbling about going soooo early. I told her that she doesn't have to come but she insisted to and make an effort to dry her track suit by ironing it. It was a bit wet when i hold her track and i guess it would do...

Sympathy seeing her with her half wet track, i tried not to think of it and got myself in the car.A few minutes later, we were already on our way to the Tenom Sport Complex.

I assume myself as a photo-taker lover and not a reporter. So, I took pictures which i like and therefore i only took the ones which were nice to be seen.Hehehhehe..

But, dad asked me to take full picture of the event.Then, i was starting to run here and there and snapping that and thos without liking it or not. At that moment, i was LIKE a reporter!

Above Picture::

Yikes!!!! After looking back at the pictures for many times, i bumped in this picture,I realized by then that my fiance's aunt was there too. But, i didn't see her nowhere during my half day as a reporter hahahaha.Gosh! I hope she doesn't judge me as snobbish huhuhuhuh.....

The event was not only attended by young ones nor adults.But, suprisingly, mother and daughter had made the event merrier. And what shocked me was a mother carrying her baby also joined in the walk! Man! This was the spirit of every christian members possess.

:: The young ones also took part in the walk and made the walk fun and memorable! ::

No matter how old you were, everyone stood under the half scorching sun with the haze helping to reduce the heat.We basked under the 3.30pm sunny light with the grace of the LORD.
~Datuk Radin and Datin Angeline(hoped i spelled her name right)~

The leader from the Part Bersatu Sabah component has come to join for the Walk and flag off the Walk even though he had errands to do in KK.

Thank you Datuk!

The beautiful and humble Datin Angeline who i just called her out "Aunty, ambil gambar" hahahhaha instead of "Datin, ambil gambir(i meant 'gambar')".

She didn't show any grumble about my choice of word for her status not calling her 'Datin'.

People out there, she's just humble and very friendly to talk with.
AND Beautiful also~Winks~

She just knows how to Pose!

********************************

~Thanks a bunch for the Traffic man to get things control on the road. ~

Wow! We really broke a leg under the sunny and hazy weather.

~This was a beautiful moment being captured for the 'WALK FOR JESUS'~

::ALAS! They had arrived at the SIB church::

~Hah~ Good riddance! Thank God they served water. I was gasping for air and need water as i was dehydrated~

~Dr.Marcus seems tired and exhausted~

~We were entertained with the singers~

During the event, we had prayers leaded by every high priests in every church dominations. But i didn't happen to snap the moment as i was praying too which goes the same to my camera..hehhehehe.

::The preparation::

2011-08-23T10:15:00.009+08:00

I juggled in and out from my brain hub saying that 'I'm Getting Married'! Oh Gosh, I AM!

The kinestethic response did not give any effect of my blood pressure. My pumpers, were pumping my blood vessels well. And i guess it ships the blood in a balanced portion in every single department of my body. I guess that's why i'm doing NOTHING at all to the preparation. I'm TOO relaxed!

I have my list! And i kept scracthing out the ones i've completed doing and ticking the ones i've scratched! I guess i didn't know where the tick symbol should go (laughing). My 1st list has gone, and i re-wrote the 2nd one. The 2nd list was misplaced, and i did another one.So, this 'other one' was LOST, and i got pissed off!

Now, i have my small BOOK pad LIST!

My book pad list is simple and easy carry!I've had it with me since 2009.

So, you now you know, i've been listing and losing my lists since 2009.

However, i lost the most precious small pad book that contains tons of ideas and dates of appointments, emails, numbers and so on...... during my transfer back to my hometown.

I didn't know where i packed it and which box i placed it.I tried digging in all the boxes and yet it there was no sign of it!Ugh! It was just awful!

So, now! I only carry with me- my Galaxy pad brain!No more lists of papers, nor a small book pad and ex-changing pens and pencils needed!And it's just amazing as how things were going!

Everything went well without the list!

With the help of my 'significant Other' to remember on dates and things needed to be done-it was just then that i realized - what i needed more was, HIM! to be part of the chaotic planning! It's just fun forgetting and delaying the dates as we succumbed ourselves in our workloads.

I remembered rushing for the photoshoot! Waking up early in the mo' which both of us just were not meant to do! Having the future mother-in-law to the scene, made me wonder what thoughts would she had on me hahahaha.. I didn't really played my character as the goody-goody daughter in-law type!

And we had the Hell of a time spent together laughing and teasing ourselves in the car.We could't wait to reach the scene!We were already imagining ourselves being instructed to turn here, turn there, do that, do this, and etc...

Anyways, i had fun on the island!

And the free-stay which was inlcluded in the pre-wed package!

I couldn't agree more that, no matter how stressed up we could be in times of the wedding preparation, it's just going to be a memory that couples should endure and experience!

And i ensure myself that THIS journey that is just a begginning is a stepping stone for BOTH us to cling on together when life gets difficult and the high tides gets tougher.

And here i am again re-phrasing the words.Waaaaaarfgh!!!

I'M GETTING MARRIED!

::SPKS(System Pengurusan Kualiti Sekolah)::

2011-07-31T19:26:00.007+08:00

Wow! It has been events after events which have been surprisingly making my day in my home sweet home.

After the transfer, i no more had to buy tickets online in advanced nor should i get packed on Sunday and drive back to KK to fly to Tawau. I need not to hug my families with teary eyes and get to see them only when time permits.

Everything has changed but the difference was i had to drive back and fro to my new school. And going to school in the afternoon is not my daily routine previously and i find it so hard to get adapted. When i reached school, i tend to get sleepy and tired even though it has already marked 2 months. And i never will give up though!

We are still lending classes from SK Chint Mata(Primary school) while our SMK Chinta Mata's(secondary school) school is still under road construction. So, we are hoping we could enter before next year~winks~I was told, that this particulary newly school was big and spacious compared to the other 5 schools here in Tenom. The design was much better and updated. I was very lucky to be transferred in this school. I only taught 6 periods as we have only 3 classes for Form One. I'm in heaven hhhhahhahaha.....

Being transferred, i hold a few posts in the school as if i knew a lot about administration things. Like being Head of English Panel, Head for PK 1(Panels Management) and also as an Auditor of the school. With a 3 year experience, i have became a 10 year more experience with this filing system hahhhah.. I was glad even though at first i grumbled, but this work is really fun! And eventually made me an Auditor at the District level. ~Scary~

We are now walking ourselves to the verge of standardizing our filing system which is called (SPKS) Sistem Pengurusan Kualiti Sekolah. We are the second district after Kota Marudu carried out this system. And NOW i knew that white soft files, should be written using standard writing blocks and in blue pen. Every documents should be stamped with blue circle if it goes out from the file and stamped red if the document is filed in. This is actually clerks job and teachers should know this too. It is of course new to us teachers but not to clerks. Hehehehe...

So, i'm currently busy updating files to be audited and auditing others work. We were trained not to find any mistakes but to help the teachers what to do and how to do. This was emphasized by our honourably PPD Tuan Ajmal Hj Jumah. And greatly to say, i am under his team...~Scary~! Matilah...

I've heard also after we went auditing to a few schools, news came up saying that auditors in Tenom was looking for mistakes instead of helping in Metro Harian(forgot the date). But i hope the credibility of all auditors in Tenom and the ones under me which was PK4 (Students' Exercise Books) had learned what needed to be improved. I hope schools could receive any comments with being made during the auditing process with open hearted. And so far, i had a very collborative teachers under me and i would like to thank you all for the cooperation they(YOU ALL) had given.

::1 Malaysia Run::

2011-07-03T05:36:00.004+08:00

'Larian 1 Malaysia' is an event where we join hand in hand together to run and have fun! As we SMK CHINTA MATA's teachers are still sharing the SK CHINTA MATA'S school, we eventually combined the two schools for the run!

Having only 59 students at this moment is still not easy to handle as our kids are still acting as if they were still in their 6th grade. Varieties of behaviour are making us phsychological teachers to tame them and get them to shape. I should be reading about books on kids behaviour nowadays..NOT!

Yesterday i really had fun taking pictures! And the students really had fun posing! ~Winks~

Coffee Festival 2011

2011-06-26T20:52:00.009+08:00

In conjuction with the Prime Minister's visit to Kemabong, our Chief Minister had came earlier this afternoon to launch the Coffee festival and simultaneously to see how far the preparation was.

Tenom is famous for its rapidly growing coffee products with 3 different companies(if i'm not mistaken or is it 2 hahahah). Well, coffee is one of the best and ultimate drinks for elders in the olden days. And i could still remember my grandfather stirring up his hot coffee early in the morning. With just a sip, he gets all his energy!

Villagers will make coffee for their breakfast and is a must to bring when they are at thier orchard or paddy fields for the rest of the day. Coffee reflects strengthness! But beware not to get addicted to it!~winks~

It was scorching hot walking under the sun today. We went to Kemabong around 11am. We missed church today hehehheheeh....I was basking under the striking sun.Man!!

Mom was in-charged with the catwalk for the beauty paegant 2011. So, as a fan of beauty pagaent, my siblings and i followed my Mom to the rehearsal which starts at 2pm.

Here were a few snaps:

~During the speech(to officiate the Coffee Festival)~

~It was scorching hot~

~Ronnie delivered very powerful songs~
I was really entertained at his angelic voice.

~Me and the Clown~

~Hahahahah..Now I realized i am too SHORT~

~How'd i wished i was as tall as them~

P/s: They will be having another full rehearsal on the 29th.June.2011.Anyone would like to come, please by all means do come at your own risk! hahahahhaa-Joking!

Reminder:Full rehearsal will be on the 29th.June.2011.

There were 13 more contestants who couldn't make it today!

Wish them all the best luck!

::Lov-Vers::

2011-06-12T23:35:00.005+08:00

This is just a simple update!

On the 4th, June,2011. I managed to pull myself through the hazardous of workloads and my packing schedules as i was to be transferred back to my hometown to attend my friend's wedding reception~winks~ I would like to give myself a pat on my shoulder..

Loviana or mostly called 'Lubi', is my coming to 8 years of friendhsip has finally tied the knot.

Her husband 'VERS' is a very happy guy. He is so friendly and gets tuned up with us(Teslian Cohort 1) so quick. He's PR is so good! heheheheheh

The wedding reception was held at RasaRia Resort! It was a meaningful event for both of them and we were there to share the JOY!

Lubi is a girl who never wear make-ups and never will you find her in heels. What made me sooooooo wanting to attend was -TO SEE HER IN MAKE-UPS AND HEELS- Yikes!

She looked so beautiful and elegant on that night! I gasped for air to see how beautiful she was.

And i wished and hoped for their happiness as they embraced each other with a happy smile and a happy ending!

::Happy yet sad::

2011-05-24T14:09:00.011+08:00

I believe that it's a dream come true when it comes to a 'Happy Wedding,right? Who wouldn't be! Being with the one person we love so much for our entire love is just undescribable.

And so the story begins:

A friend of mine who is in her late 30's has now tied the knot for after so long being single and alone. And i am VERY MUCH happy and content to see her on her big day. Even though she is in her late 30's, you wouldn't even see her carrying the digits. She looks favourly young and sweet, as if she was in her 20's.

Meeting her partner for quite some time and have the same feelings towards each other. The groom decided to call it an end to thier hide-and-seek relationship ~winks~

It was now, to tell everyone!

During the day of the Nikah which was held at 3pm, her dad had passed away 30 minutes earlier. The room went into teary atmosphere when it was announced her dad has gone. She was one great strong lass! She cried, but she managed to pull a smile on her face during the 'Nikah' ceremony was on. I was holding on tough too, but i couldn't and i ran out from the room. Crying at the other room of hers.

After the 'Nikah' ceremony, she quickly changed her outfit and quickly with her husband, drove quickly to where her father was(at her Sister's house) which was 5km away. It was the saddest moment in my life. A happy day yet a Sad day.

~Students came to help during the 'Nikah' ceremony~

~Students posing themselves~

Nikah cermony:

~Early Morning~

~Before Nikah, she had to 'mengaji' recite the surrahs in the al-Qurran~

~I was only there to view my beloved friend reciting the Qurran~

~On the same day, Aqiqah was also held out for her nephew and nieces~

~Aren't the babies just so cute and adorable?~

~After the Reciting and the Aqiqah was done~

~We head in her room to take pictures~

It was a sad moment as at this time she knew her father has left her on her wedding day.

::Happy Teacher's Day::

2011-05-18T09:04:00.007+08:00

It was Teacher's Day on May,16th,2011. My colleagues have been planning this dinner about 3 weeks ago and i almost had forgotten about it as i was packed with other things which kept me busy for the past 3 weeks.

So, during school hours, they reminded me of the dinner and i pondered "dinner?". Looking at my bewildered face, i was given an Inferno echos of 'How dare you forgot about our dinner'. I was smacked by the butt with a long cane(Tell you, it doesn't happen not only to students but to an adult like me)~winks~ FYI, my colleagues are mostly 20 years older than me. So, i get canned for stupid things. But, i always get honored by blessed loves and care by them~winks~ I'm into this gang of 'sporting mommas' and i liked being in their club hahahahahah.

At 7.00pm sharp, Kak Ida and Kak Sugiarti came to my place and we car pooled in my car to ABU SAYAf's restaurant. It's not owned by a terrorrist but the restaurant's name is like a that since i first came here. Furthermore, it was my ex-student's restaurant. I just don't understand why? But who cares, it was cheap! 10 people eating with dishes of 4 big fish, vegies, shrimps and other seafoods cost only RM200.

I was damn full!

So, here's the BIG FAMILY:

After we had our dinner, Kak Ida wanted to go and have a drink. Man! If i follow this mommas, i'll gain weight in no time~winks~

~I really had fun!~

Happy Teacher's Day

::A trip to the Cattle Farm::

2011-05-12T10:15:00.000+08:00

It was my first time to the Cattle Farm in Ranau and driving up the steep hilly hills and up to the top to the Cattle Farm. It was cold and windy. The wind gently touches my skins which i end up with goose-bumps all the time we were there.

As we arrived, i got out from the car and said 'Damn!' The view was hell-Yes soothing and beautiful. We were only disturbed by the smell. Hahahahahah...I'm sure some of you have been to cATTLE fARM IN rANAU before.And it regards me as the most 'sakai-ness' lass.

I have seen beautiful scenery pictures of ex-students and friends via facebook. And read descriptions of the pictures taken which looks as if they were in overseas. But, just couldn't figure out where in Ranau.

(dreamt to go to the cattle farm in 2010)

I wanted to snap a few pcitures there as the view is very beautiful,but having less knowledge of the place and not good in directions, my dream has faded until March 2011. It was a dream come true!Heheheheeh...(sakai) My significant other is good at directions. And i can say, he's my best partner ever when it comes to reading MAPS~winks~His work made him an expert!

We drove to Ranau JUST to take pictures of the VIEW.

Here's a few snaps:

~Photo courtesy goes to me beloved one and only(Mr.Right Guy)~

~I really liked the place even though it smellssssss~hehehehehehe. . . .

~He could be one of the 'Bachelor Models'~Ahakz! just need to slim down , i guess!

~As we were happily taking pictures, we heard bells ringing and a line of cows~It was just what we were aiming for. We came at the right time.

~We just couldn't stop snapping. And we really could pull thru in modelings,huh?.(NOT!)~

I really had fun! We were actually practicing how to pose in front of the lens as we were going for our pre-wed photoshoot a week after this trip was taken.

Whatmore, we were just metres away from the Mountain.Stress-free...
Oh, when we were heading home and going down the hill, the brake pads were warning us by the smells of the brake pads. I was worried yet i regain calmness when i saw my Him steadily driving without fear. I guessed he's used to it already! Unless if there were smokes coming from the hood, i guess he'll panick too ~winks~ I would be already running like a mad lass,jumping out from the car,if it ever happens.

Professional Learning Communities Leson Study -Sabah ZOne-

2011-05-06T10:47:00.011+08:00

The workshop started on May,3rd,2011. This programme is to inject the way of increasing the scool's GPMP of every school who are under band 6 and 7 to achieve the NKRA's listed goals.

This Lesson Study is to improve the way of teaching in the class where, we will call teachers of our certain subject to gather together and to observe the teaching process of a lesson. Comments will surely be needed in producing a better lesson plan and the way of teaching in a certain lesson which is conducted.

Every teacher of its certain subject will come in a selected class and observe the way the lesson is conducted and the lesson plan as well.

Having said that, being observed is such a scary stage; but this is WHAT we need to do in carrying out this LESSON STUDY.

It will be another workload for a very timid person like me but i have no option to say 'NO' but as i think over-It's all for the sake of our children and the nation! I will do my best!

EASTER

2011-04-29T13:06:00.007+08:00

On Friday which was GOOD FRIDAY, I was already a day earlier in my hometown to celebrate Easter with my family. And the significant occassion that urged me to fly back home was, My fiance' was going to be baptized. Thank you Lord!

He really had troubles in the 5 years we were together to complete his class. Now that he is baptized, i now could clear off my mind from one of the stage to say my vows end of this year. But, not that everything has ended. This is just the begginning and there are more to do, and more to cover up. Well, i hope whatever it is, we could pull through together.

~The preparation before Easter Celebration~

~I met my Senior with his first child(I forgot whether the baby was a she/he)

~winks~

~During the rehearsal and penerimaan 'Minyak Karisma'~

~He finally made his way to the LIGHT of God's WAY~

~Halleluyah~

He may now recieve the Holy Bread. The excitement on his face shows how happy he was. I am thankful to God!

2011-02-19T21:48:00.006+08:00

I was having problems to get connected in the hi-tech world these days. Apart from my workloads, my broadband was in a terrible state. I couldn't comprehend what went wrong. Chinese New Year was a blast! Went back to my hometown with pride as i just got back my car. Yeah! However, i couldn't bring it back to Tawau due for obvious reason-road condition. So, i left it home and gave full trust to the family. However, after a few days, mom called telling me that my brother had made a small cracking in front of the bumper. I couldn't imagine the small crack, but i imagined worse. A few days back, another call was about another crash being done by 'si daddy'. Well, i don't mind much as he has the dough. But, I would sure like the car being fixed before i get my ass home.

(Unfortunately, the damage of the car was not fixed as i got home in March for school holidays.)

~sadness in the air~

It is January 2011, the opening of the year. It seems like it was just yesterday I have been attached to blogging. And it marked 3 years since 2008 and yet I am not that active. Writing is my passion but somehow I am trapped with workloads that unable me to keep my writing frequently in this hi-tech server. Anyways, I keep a diary with me and help me to pinpoint and mark events, occasions and feelings that I felt I need to write about. I wish my short journals from 2008 helps my kids and my grandchildren to see how their ‘mother’ or ‘nanny’s’ possible life was back then when they weren’t yet existed. (Imagining and smiling adding up the smirk to end the imagination)

I’ve had lots of ups and downs in the past years corresponding with the students’ achievements, my family’s furious matters-(losing 3 members in the big family was a tragic moment 2 years in a row) and my housemate(ahakz!)

Life wasn’t that kind to me in the interval days of last years’ chapter. I enrolled and encountered bumpy roads and only did I glide along smoothly –which was countable-.

Resolutions?? Hahahaha..i did my list and it happens that I scratched all of them out and came back to zero. Well, I guess I’ll have my new resolutions every now and then in my everyday beings. Making it possible to achieve it or not-well, that depends on how determine I am. Oh there is one resolution that is glued in my list! I remember now! TO GET MARRIED! Yihaaaa!

I can’t possibly change that now as I’m dying to aim for it! No aiming on buying hi-tech devices, nor cars, nor a house or whatever it is that completes my need. It’s just that one thing which is to say my vows in front of God the Almighty~winks~

*Have a blessed New Year To all of you! May health and wealth cringe in our episode of 2011!*

Peace and Love,

I am in the territory where Celcom broadband signal is waaaaay to low and it's hard for me to get things updated.

I can glue myself for hours and hours just to get the pictures loaded and just to make sure if anything happen i could refresh and re-do it again.

All i need was Patient.Nice!

I'm really being TESTED!

Well, a week ago,

i had wrapped up mock presents for the Christmas tree.

As i got hold on to the 3rd wrapper, my enthusisasm to wrap was decreasing. Why? I had trouble wrapping the 2nd one and it mellowed down my spirit to go on. However,I had to do it before mom comes back. She wouldn't be happy if the mock presents are yet to be placed under the tree.

~Here i was diligently and patiently wrapping up.

Yeah! I managed! With courage and the airconditioner filling up the livingroom (cool)

i got to the finish- line...

Good thing mom only bought 4 wrapping papers.

~If not-doom~

~And there i go... placing them nice and comfy where they supposed to be..

~winks~

*******************************************************

On the 19th, we had our carolling! It was raining and the folks intended to stay at DR Marcus's house as to represent every single house in our neighborhood.

As everyone were there, each head of the family selects a song!

Simple..!

No need of walking one house to another...

So here we were:

Above pict:Heather, Noel and Christopher aka Opo

Below pict: GG's Cuzzy(i didnt get her name) and GG

Above Pict: GG and I

Below pict: Opo And I

(Oh ya! He's currently studying in India, taking up Medicine..Wooooooh! A DOCTOR!)

Hehehhehehe..A handsome doctor,eh!

Upper pict: Mummy, Anty,GG, Me and Heather

Below Pict: ~Here we are! The Big family of KKD Mantailang~

*************************************************************

The payday! Yeah! We went to Keningau to get my bills settled. Bills accumalation= 1grand! How? Dunt ask me. haahahah.. I'm dead but my fiance really saved me from the worse!

*Love you honey*

-Please do practice footing my bills heheheheh-

So, before we headed off, Mom was doing the measuring for the 2nd living room's curtain.

~Measuring the wall??~

Oh ya, FYI, the wall has been repainted to cream rose.It looks white to me.~lol~

Our previous one was blue and the color wasn't in a good shape. There were a few parts -here and there- where fading is colonizing the other part of the kingdom of the wall.

~The wall happens to look as if being infected with ringworms..Eeew! ~

Repaint! repaint! repaint!

~So, while mom was measuring,

i just took this snap randomly~

~We had our moment with the car before we headed off to Keningau~

~We arrived in Keningau early morning around 9am. And the TOWN was packed with cars and people. Holly macaroni Shaloney! Where the hell are these cars coming from?!~

Realizing that we were adding up the crowd! Lol!

So, there we were having breakfast before getting ourselves exhausted walking.

After breakfast, mom dropped me infront of the Ambank as there were no parking at all.

Entered the bank, took my number and waited.

I saw mom doing the double park routine activity. heheehhehehe......

I guess everyone does that~winks~

Done!

There were no longer there!!

I panicked(I'm always like that-that's me), I hate to be left without telling. I walked along the pathway, and i found them! Using my sensor programming center-Focusing on every lexus in the parking lots...There i spotted them-the only white Lexus hehehehe...

It was on the other side of the road.

I began to stride on as i cross the road.

As a precaution of my safety, i looked on my left, right and left again.

I was there. Hey! But no one was in there.

~I panicked again~

Gees!

.
I saw a dress shop right infront of the car. I guessed right! They were in there heheheheh..

Well, -Ladies...

~So, if u ever happen to be in keningau, do come to this Dress shop~

Damn! The price for all nice dresses are only Rm50.

This is my shoplist from now on! Weheeee!!!

As i entered in the shop, mom was already trying the dresses.Oh My! So, i sat on the chair right in the middle of the shop. Not having any intention to look at the dresses. The anty came and said " You tak mau tengo2 dless yg balu sampai kah? Cantik2 lagi amoi." (Don't you wanna have a look at those new arrivals(dresses)?

So, i smiled. Stood up and took a look and gave a serious look at the sexy dresses.

(mostly reveiling)

There were many dresses which caught my eyes but the color didn't suit me at all.

Then this purple dress which mom was actually wearing in the fitting room, gave an eye opener to me to hunt down for another dress.

I took the dress mom wore and she took the other dress which was also puprlish!

We loike it!

However, i ended buying only one dress and a simple v-shape loose clothe which only cost me Rm30.Bingo!

I have something for xmas..!!

~Heather and I kept paced to ourselves and begin our cam-whoring~

~winks~

*this was when we arrived home*

Bought the 2 rascals their xmas clothes, paid bills, paid bills and bought a few more things and landed on this nice restaurant.

~This was after we had our walks, and shop till we drop~

I ended buying a dress which i wasn't actually planning on to.

~ooops~

~A few picts of the siblings~

~Heather went to her slumber land and i was still awake on the way home.~

~After taking this snap, i joined Heather and Zzzzzzzz~

Thanks Mommy!!!!For the nice flight of PFU 6886!!

::I also bought a Jeans which i havent been shopping like almost 5 years::

Good for you Get!

Just don't get any bigger than now.

You might not fit a 26' anymore heheheheeheheh.....

::The 2010 Gathering::

2010-12-19T22:56:00.020+08:00

On Dec,17th, 2010 which was just last Friday, the Teslian Cohort 1 had carried out the second gathering which started last year. And i wasn't able to attend because of certain matters. Thinking of what certain matters -i just couldn't recall back hahahhahaha...

Well, by hook or by crook, i had to make it to this one!

So, i did made myself there. And i was alive after taking the bus ride.Lol!

My dear friend Lina fetched me at the bus station.So Nice of her:)

The ride took about 3 hours.

It was damn cold! I managed to take my bali shawl and wrapped up my legs which was only covering from my lap to the level of my 'tegap2' calf hehehhhee..:)

Heading off to the 2nd Beach, there we were with Lina. I called Jac up to know right where they were. And Yes! They were at the 3rd hut. Lina and i confidently jumped out from her 4 wheel car, a VX Ninja and carrying out the things and walked towards where Jac had told us. However, when we arrived to the main entrance of the beach region, we couldn't find anyone of them. We saw people of course, but by the blury, sizy and the way the people move-it didn't match to whom we recognize.

Lina and i were scanning people as if we have the eyes of a programmed robot.

Target Not Match!

So i gave Jac another call and knew that we were at the wrong place hahahahhaha.

Going to the wrong place didn't made our face red. But, carrying picnic stuffs and walking confidently infront of people was the climax of the cheek bones goes red hehehhehehe...

So, we headed off to the right place and founded them.

Uppon arrival, there was another group of people BBQ-ing next to us.

We had to pass this group in order to reach ours.

When we arrive, Pian, Bridget and Nikki was already setting up the fire.

~Setting up the fire~The fire lit up in no time.

~Thanks to them for being the chefs~

.:The hubby and Lubi:.

~This is what we have on our menu that day~

~Walah! We were already biting off the chicken wings:p~

~Eating Time~

After eating time, we couldn't stop cam-whoring together hahahahha..
Especially ME!
OBVIOUS!

So, here are the poses my classmates and i would love presenting:

~OH!Annie's Family had also came along~

~Our Jumping styles~

~We really loved jumping~

~JAcinta & Annie~

Annie:Style ala2 Korea nie! Korea suka begini hehehe..

And there she goes!

~The friendship of 8 years~

There were still others who couldn't make it!

~Eric, Me and The Beau Lenny~

~The cute and sweet Lina and Lubi~

~The beauty VV, Lenny and Handsome Eric~

~How i just love the Camera hahahah~

~I loike this~

~Hermm, Can't stop posing off, i guess~

~The Trios with this Korean guy hehhehehe..Lol~

Oh ya! Not to forget! We also had exchanging gifts on that day. So, what happened was. The moment i arrived, my present doesn't looks convincing as the wrapper was just horrible. I only managed to go and buy something for the gift the night before i left to KK. And i had trouble of not having a salotape.

I didn't have any option but only to use double tape huhuhuhu..

Lina kept teasing my present as the wrapper looks horrendous! and it doesn't look like a Present!

They gave a simple touch figuring what was inside. The present has a very beautiful hump and as they touched and patted they were thinking it was a container.

~I only managed to smile~

So, we wrote our names on a piece of paper,fold it and dumped it into a box so that we could just take our luck on who we are supposed to give our presents to.

~So, the game begins~

~I had trouble when it came to taking the folded papers randomly. I kept on getting my own name hahahahhahah~

~I managed to get 'Sintoot's aka Jac's Prezzie~

Love the mugs~

*Thanks Cynta*

~And here was what they thought was a CONTAINER! hahahahahah...Well, Lucky you Jac!~

ERIC & ME: Thanks for having the time to look at those simple pictures above!

::We called it a wrap after having the sun embracing our delicate skin.I got sunburn::

::Preserving the Day::

2010-12-16T11:48:00.005+08:00

Well, I’m persevering the day today. My chances for success are iffy, but hey, you never know. Miracles have been known to happen -- but usually only to people who deserve 'em. Me, on the other hand, deserve nothing. So, I’m getting used to it.

Am baffled on my own schedule whether I could or couldn’t join in our gathering tomorrow. I always encounter problems when it’s last minute. Even last year, I didn’t managed to joined in the gathering karaoke-ing with them. Tsk…tsk…tsk.. What a pity!

I hope by preserving the day today, gives me the ultimate time to attend the gathering and join in the fun of bbq-ing~winks~

When I told Mom-3 days before- that I was going for a gathering her long face showed of disagreement.
I understand the situation. No one’s babysitting my 2 lil siblings who are 12 and 8 years old. Mom goes off to work till 5pm and only can I get to go when Mom’s around the house. And Dad on the other hand is flying off to KL for a meeting today. Pity him. Gave him a hug before he left this mo’- I haven’t even washed my face hahahahaaah….Well, there goes my challenge!

So, today, I changed my mind of not going to KK which is a 2 and-a- half hours from here. I booked the bus ticket for tomorrow’s trip. So, that my lil siblings could make it throughout the day tomorrow without anyone parenting them. Well, they are actually used to staying both together in the house while mom and dad is off to work and only comes back in the evening. (I’m not staying with them during school days as I’m working quite far from the family. I only come back for the holidays.) No babysitter’s needed. However, having me here is a must. Well, that I understand. Mom just wants me around the house ~I know that~ *smile*

By hook or by crook I must go!! As I had promised earlier with friends of mine. So, I guess it wouldn’t be very nice calling off last minute huh.

I haven’t taken a bus since I have my own car and wheels to steer. But my car was sent to the workshop by my fiancé to make over. You know-Guys…
~It’s a xmas present~ And I can’t wait to see the NEW look! But, I guess it’ll be hold up for another 2 months. It would no longer be a xmas present haahaha.. Valentine present will suit that!

I felt funny as now I had to take a bus which limits my trips and expands my walking exercises hehehehe.. I remembered being like this during my teens and I survived! I guess I will again heheheh..

Uncle Lee, an awesome blogger – had gone through many experiences and he had gone thru thick and thin of this challenging live. He made it and is now rich! Money and opportunities didn’t came down from the sky he struggled for it! His stories are fascinating and should be a lesson to the younger ones like me!

Complaining of just getting on the bus is ridiculous! Not that I’m rich but I’m just too indulged possessing the good life wahaahhaha… NOT!

::Happy Graduation::

2010-12-15T14:36:00.006+08:00

At last, a friend of mine who was taking up the same course as i was during our Uni has finally GRADUATED. And now is a MAster holder in TESOL.

So that means, she teaches english to those who are non-speaker of English.

And now she was offered being a lecturer there.

Howd i wished i could pursue my MASTER there too..

~Fingers cross~

Errrmm, giving it another thought, i guess NOT! hahahahah

This beautiful lass has her sweet smiles carrying with her just everywhere she would go.

She's so friendly and a down to earth lass-just by looking at her personalty and how she goes about when she talks to people.

I merely know her as she was frequently to be seen around the campus and had never had the time to chit chat.

She wasn't my classmate nor was she my friend during those 2 years in the camp.

However, i found that she's just a humble person who could actually talk with anybody and burst her laughs-not knowing who she was talking to..

I judged her wrong back then! Hehehehehe...Sorry Dear!

Met her during our graduation day and she just chatted with me like 'who cares who you are'!

She's so friendly and beautiful!

Finishing her degree level in a local university in Shah Alam, led her working for quite sometime writing journals(i forgot-please help me get this right) and pursue her master in States(Washington)....

Looking at my chat list friends last night, she was online and clicked her name and her page popped out. What surprised me was she was using a rob..And i immediately asked her 'You've graduated?! Without saying the simple hi and what not of greeting hehehehe...So rude of me!

And here below i would love to present the Lovely Ms.Laraa:)

::All the best dear::

::Confession::

2010-12-14T21:13:00.002+08:00

At last, i went for confession! It was the last day for this week. I thought of going last Thursday but many things were to attend and i couldn't make it till today. Well, thanks God, I did and managed before Xmas ..Yeah!

Happy advance Xmas to all! My friends and foster family in States! Love ya'll so much!

::Hair::

2010-12-12T22:39:00.010+08:00

I've been longing to straightened my hair since last year as i had my curls danggling on my scalp for almost 2 years. And now its touching on my butt line. (To be exact! Lol)

So, i went to the Saloon right after Mass ended.

As i was going out from the church, saw a friend of mine Irwan Buing! The one i Blogged about this month! With his beloved wife Mrs. Buing!

Shaked hands, chit chat and left.

Went to the saloon! Yeah! I'm almost to accomplish what i wished for.

Came in! And wow! There were many ladies on the 2 short benches waiting for their turn to get a hair cut or i guess, getting straightened hair like me!

I had to wait almost 30 minutes to get my butt on that seat and ready to pamper my hair with chemicals hahahahaha.. I guess it might be choking by now! But don't worry i gave it a delicate treatment hair right after the chemicals were busy making my strings of hair their permenant place to reside on. I hope that reduces the pain! Ahakz!:p

Goood-bye Mrs.Curly aka Simba...

Welcome Straity! Have a happy 5 months for 2011. Or maybe more.It depends how you can make this one lady here pretty in her stressful days! :p
If you managed! You'll live longer hahahaha..

:: I'm really gonna miss my curls! Definitely!!!

:: Honey! I know you prefer me in straights,right?

.:Fell for him once:.

2010-12-12T18:19:00.010+08:00

Wow! After those years, now they are finally engaged! The once handsome Prince William is now engaged with Kate Middleton a commoner.

Prince William was my one Fav years back during Backstreet boys were still on the road of fame!! But now, hehehehhe...He's getting older and and i'm aging. The feeling of having that blind love towards him had gradually faded as i entered puberty hahahaha....

I guess i matured earlier than i supposed too.Lol!

Before Princess Diana was still alive i adored him for his naiveness and his cuteness. I even remembered of buying a mag which he appeared on. And there was only one picture of him in that mag! I died for him! Hahhahah... Kids!

Well, now! It seems that he's getting his father's features and i feel like im favouring his dad! ooops! Camella Parker will shoot me! Lol!

Take a look!

Erm..After giving it another look, I guess, they only share the same balded side hair zone hehehehe...

~He's still covered with hair during his teens~

This! I loike! :p

Hehehehhe

(Looks very charming here)

So as you click on 'Yamaha Ego S 2010, you'll be linked to the page and you could see the details of the scooter itself.

Price: Rm3300(can be negotiated)

Oh My! The Car has been stolen!

2010-12-10T13:58:00.011+08:00

I was roughly having my sweet time checking on things via the internet while reading Sarah's novel book called 'The Curse of the Hillcrest Hotel'.

Sarah is one of my foster family back in states and it was so kind of her to email her novel to me.

Am now still stucked reading Chapter 7. Had my daily basis reading it but there were other things i need to mend before clearing my time to read. So ill always end up in this Chapter 7. Re-reading from where i left.

And it's a good story to be read. I don't have to buy any books from now on. Wait till i finished reading this one! :p

As i was cruising on the internet and reading Sarah's novel from the computer, Dad called me up saying that his car was towed. Not that he ended up in an accident or the car broke hahahhaah... But, the bank took the car from him while he was busy having a meeting at Sutera Pacific. I stopped from what i was doing. I was shocked and giving it a gulped, i whispered to myself "Here we go again ".

Always problems, problems, probelms...

He was asking me whether i had any cash which he demanded on. Unfortunately, i do not have much cash which he asked for- which helps more on keeping the burden.

So, there we are in a family dilemma.

Being the eldest, i called My Fiance for SOS help. He was looking for ways and i on the other hand would give up all my salary to pay dad's debt.

It's so sad especially when Christmas is just around the corner. Well, i hope my good deeds will be returned into my Christmas present.Lol!

AND i hope what i did would be appreciated by him.

I've met people who are ungrateful and my dad is under that category. The thing is, He's my family member. Which where a member in the family should never ever be so calculative 'Like he is'.

. Helping him is quite a burden to me.

Well, i could babble here and make it a novel.

But then again, i guess let that be my endurance in life.

These are listed cars which we have at home.

Even the garage couldn't afford to welcome them. Lol!

~Credits to pictures i goggled down from yahoo~

In reality, our Trooper, Hilux and Lexus are in White except for the Waja and The old GX.

1.Trooper Isuzu-Broken down.Dad had established it as his Storage for tiles. Mean Old Man!

2. Toyota Ninja GX-Has quite a few problems.... Seldom used.

3. Waja(sedan)-Dad bought it to replaced our old Proton Saga which was taken by the Bank.Oops!

4. Mom's 4x4 Hilux- Being rented to pay the Waja( Dad can no longer afford to pay) Gees!

5.The New Lexus-Ok! No comment!

~So, What's left here at home? The old Trooper which can no longer be generated. It's dead! Wahahahha.... And the Old Ninja GX-which i hate driving it!

And the new white Lexus~

Now that Dad's stranded in KK! Mom had to drive all the way to KK to fetch that wretch Mr.Daddy.. Hayoooo!!

~I was actually imagining the whole scene where Dad just finished meeting and went out from the meeting room, proudly walking to his car and then found out the car wasn't there. He goes "Oh Goodness! My car has been stolen!" 'Police!!!!! Help me find my car.'

The police officer," Erm, sir. I guess your car is not stolen"

He -in a panick state walking up and down holding his head-as those gamblers who lost RM1million in a day hahahahah.

The police continues,"You're car has been taken away by the bank." And i would like to sue you for having an expired Road Tax.

~Gosh! Hilarious....~

I am just imagining. This is not what had happened hehehhehee..

♥New Layout♥

2010-12-09T09:26:00.008+08:00

Yesterday,the day after yesterday and the day after the day of yesterday, i was busy cruising off new templates for my blog.

Early morning, i will just get my lappy- on it! waaaaaait... and i'm on the internet!

Sitting in the kitchen helped me alot to kill a few birds with a stone.

While waiting pages to upload, i'll quickly go to the sink and wash the dishes, letting the water run in the washing machine, sweeping the floor- And then come right back to my precious seat. Waiting for another web to upload,to give it a shine look-i mopped the floor. Take a few onions and chopped it to be used later in my cooking.

Come back to my seat, eyeing on a few templates, trying it ooout...and Nope! -Gave another look on the rest, download the templates and upload it on my blog -

While the page was uploading to see how my blog would look like-

went to the fridge and get a few things to cook.

Prepare.Cook.Eat.Done Washing.

(Signal is very veeerry looooow here)

It depends on the weather too..

Once i saw my page, it was fantastic! But after giving it another look, it was dull! As if the owner of this blog has no spice of life.

Colors play a main role to whom we are. And having just this, wasn't giving me a spec of satisfaction.

Hunting down templates and its design that really suits me isn't that EASY MEASY at all. I thot of giving up....

After opening up one template to another, one website to another website, was just giving me much headache as the templates were nice but the design just dosen't hit the nail. On the other hand, the design was totally the one i liked but it happened that the buttons were not functioning.

OR I guess i just didn't managed to download the full xml.folder.

Gees! Xml??? RAR??? W.ZIP???

Gawd! I'm no good in this techy world. Having the basic knowledge of computers dosen't help much to what i really wanted.

I'm really biting off than i could chew!

~Sighing~

This kitchen seat has been my loyal comforter as i had been residing on it since 2 days ago. Plus today, i'm sure it'll be a looong day to get things straight.

Copying and pasting the codes from my previous blog.

I would like to say thank you so much for 'Annieming' for her wonderful help and guidance to play with the codes. I never thought of changing the codes. It was so not my language..heheheheh.

Thanks so Much!

I ♥ u my dear friend!

~Walah! This is my new layout~

But, I'm still wondering of getting a new one! Lol..

~And here was when i panicked and sweat! The codes broke! I didn't know where i did wrong, i cried. Left my lappy! And went for a simple walk in our 2 big halls of living room. The signal was getting ugly. I tried whether i could repair it or not~

This is where i really need Annie! I lost hope!

Then, i went to hunt down another new template! ~I liked the color! It just brightens up the eye. However, im not into the way the post is laid out. I love my post to be read fully. This template only gives you half of the story and therefore to read more we need to click on the button 'read more'. Ugh! I hate doing that when reading! I love reading a post without encountering any difficulties. Even though 'clicking' isnt that hard..But then again it conjures a gap of pause..,right? Hehheehe..

So, in the meantime, i'm staying put to this template and design.

P/s: I'm going for a confession today! Urm..now! Where did i kept that list of sins of mine??

CHRISTMAS GIVE AWAY

2010-12-06T15:34:00.011+08:00

http://annieming.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-christmas-giveaway.html

Hi there folks!
I'm a non hi-tech girl. Who doesn't know how to use photoshop or whatever
software to edit pictures.
I haven't been in this editing pictures for years, after for so long since i was in my Uni life. Lol!

Felt bad about that, as i'm occupied with other things...
It's like you having a driving licence to drive and you drove a car almost everyday in your life in those years but then you stopped driving for quite some time.Let say 3 years!. And when you get hold on to it again, that's when you have no courage to drive a car, as if you never had drove one.
So, same thing goes with me about this editing pictures using the photoscape software which i deliberately downloaded via the internet.

It took me almost 2 days to download such software as the signal here is soooo low.
Last night, i managed to dowload it from 1%, 2%...10%,20%...40%,50%, 60%....79% and DANG!

I lose connection! And i lose hope... But had the zest to to do it again this morning!Lol!

So, i took a long look at how the software goes about. I read and re-read, opened and re-opened one button to another. I was at wits end. I had no idea what was in front of my eyes.
I didn't know how to execute the software. Where to add my photos, where should i edit, where and where ...Oh gosh! I was in dilemma.

I got hold onto my cousin on FB who is also joining in, and she told me how i should go about it,- but i can't recalled hahahhaha

I'm an absent-minded..
So, i 'radu' sajalah(in english just go with it).. Oh, one more thing to tell how weak i am at this- I cried after i mistakenly press the wrong button and my picture turned into something i loath..It wasn't actually what i wanted. BUT! I do not know how to re-do it wahahahahahha..

FYI, i'm actually joining a contest which is carried out by my former 6 years classmate.
http://annieming.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-christmas-giveaway.html
She provided us with hats to wear which are red and pink!
So, we had to put on her hats to our picture.
Meaning to say editing is coming in..
Once we had done that, then we should as creatively conjure up xmas theme in our picture.
(Tried that-but things were out of my hand as i do not know how to re-do.Woots!)
Then, we should submit our permalink by dropping comments in this post.

Wedding of the Year!

2010-12-04T23:09:00.009+08:00

Shirley Sukim Sarat(oyo) and Irwan Buing has been solemnized on the 27th.Dec.2010.

I couldn't make it to her 'Wedding of the Year'.

As, i was stucked with the 3-day course induction which i HAD to attend.

I couldn't explain how much i regretted for not attending.

I was told by friends that her wedding was a blast and they had fun.

Magician also showed up to entertain people who came:)

And at night, there were fireworks rocketing up to the sky.

I'm sure it was a very hard planning and thumbs up to them.

I haven't asked Oyo's permission whether or not i could write up on her.

Hope she won't get aggravated.

And, I'm keeping my fingers cross-That she won't!

Let me tell you guys about her:

Little did i know, this young and once the winner of the Unduk Ngadau of District level was once my flower girl partner during my Uncle's wedding in....~thinking what year was it~ Darn! Can't recall! Anyways, we only met on that occasion and weren't that close. As we grew up, i began to lose memories of what she looks like. But, the eyes remain unstill and purely the same! Met her back in Frienddster after for so many years and began collecting the memories back:)

And who knows..Now She's MARRIED!

On the other hand, Irwan was my senior back in high school years:)

I still remembered our batch eyeing on him. We were still young though(budak-budak).Lol!

One thing i remembered this one handsome guy was when i was in the hospital. He care to come and pay me a visit which was one thing i appreciated after having to stay there for a few nights.

I asked him to bring a few books so that i could spend my time reading. AND HE DID! The next day, he came with 2 books, i guess. Can't remember! But. i had fun reading! I still remembered th story. Even while i'm writing down these sentences, the line of the story is playing in my head as if i'm watching a tv.Lol!

Well, bottom line they are nice sweet people to be friends with:)

I hoped and wished them the best in their lifes and years ahead xoxo...

And here are pictures where i took from here and there from friends facebook.

~The Lundayeh tribe costume~

She looks elegant and simple in that costume. Same goes to he husband:)

~Their theme was orang~
Nice selection of color.

~Mr.Irwan and Mrs.Buing~

~Aww, How cute~

They look so sweet together.

Arrrgh! I'm nervous!

We were Safe!

2010-12-03T18:01:00.011+08:00

My fiance and his lil brother came driving my Mom's Hilux 4x4 car to attend a few sites in Tawau.

He came just at the right time.

Within that 3 days & 2 night stay(01-03.12.10),they were staying at my place and, I - on the other hand, at the hotel attending my induction course.

On the 3rd.Dec.2010 itself (evening), we headed off home to KK.

My fiance, called up his friend to drive off his car-which eventually is MINE Lol:) He gave the car for FREE...

So, I was his co-asisstant driver all along the way.

He was happy to have me on board, as i entertained him with songs.

And showered him with all my story-tales~Winks~

~That's my Baby! Sipping up a few liters...

Taking this picture from the Hilux~

~We managed to take a snap before we were off on the highway~

~Our practical junk food~

I love munching especially when it's a long trip.

As we sang along with the songs from his MP3 device, I don't feel good about something.

So, i took the chance to say a simple prayer by ending it with a sign of cross. Amen!

He realized and he smirked. ~He is so MEAN~And im in love with a mean man!Lol...

Continued to sing...♪♫♪♫

Everything was fine, then suddenly this Big, Long Trailer passed by and something went 'Duggg!!!'.

The sound like a firewok when it first launched. Omit the sub sounds.

Oh, Gawd! Did something hit the car?! The trailer was long to be seen. It was fast.

I did a quick speculation. "Something might hit the car, telling him with my eyes growing bigger. During my speculation was going wild, he parked the car on the side of the road. Followed by the driver who drove my car.

He hurriedly went out from the car.

He went up and down, and did a full 360 degrees circle to check up. He went to the front, near the bonnet and ducked. I couldn't see him, but i'm sure he was trying to check on the tyre.He gave a long stride to the back tyre and went back to the front. He ducked again. And with my curiosity which was rising high, opened the door and gave a jump to the ground from the seat, and shut the door behind me.

As i walked around the car, there was a sound that went swoooooosssshhhhh.....

Air? I know that sound!

As i directed my eyes to him, I saw his palm slowly cruised on the surface of the tyre. And managed to find where the swooooshing sound came from.

Whoops! We had a punctured tyre...Good thing that the tyre didn't straight away dragged us into any accident. He was like driving 130km/per hr.

And my speculation was wrong!

I even had a bad feeling on that trailer driver.. Pity him. He was on the right place and the right time to be blamed.Lol!

~Yeah, my man!His weight was enough to open up the nuts of the car~

~Lowering down the spare tyre:p~

~He concluded that, a small rock had made the cut as the air in the tyre was too compact, that's why the sound of the car from the inside wasn't smooth~

~The cut from afar~

I was so exhausted as i arrived KK.
We took off from Tawau around 4pm and arrived in KK around 2am.

'Phew'...

Exhausted

2010-12-02T10:33:00.002+08:00

I was exhausted from our 3 days -course induction.

And had too many thoughts on what the exam would be like.

The speakers had executed a very good presentation, though i still managed to chip in building castles in the air.Lol!

~Imagining the exam questions, just frightened me alot~

And i was good at acting!

I scribbled on my piece of paper as if i was jotting down notes, but eventually i was already in the exam room, answering. Hahhahaha...

Having said to read all the notes given, i was stressed as we had to write 4 essays in 'Malay Language'. I'm sure people would be surprised why i don't know how to write an essay in BM. Well, there goes the judgement from the society:-

1/. It's just nonsense- You took your SPM and you managed to pull through. You're okay!

2/. You're too ego! Just because you're an English Teacher!

( Minta puji oh nie orang! Mentang2 Guru bi)

4/. It's impossible- You're a Malaysian!

5/. You know how to speak Malay what...??

Well, whatever it is, only close members would know how 'lintang-pukang' my BM is....which i am the one always being bullied for such language.

Well, i thanked God! For giving me such strength to be able to pull through.

I even wrote down in my exam paper...

"bagi guru-guru yang baru berposting.....Without Open and closing inverted commas.... So, there goes my language....

Well enough of that! Bottom line, all i know is that i'll be confirmed by 2012:)

**********************************************

As i was writing on this entry, i'm getting ready to get myself ready packing things up as i'm going back home today! 10 hours driving is not going to be a pleasant experience. But, having my fiance here to help me to get the car back home is just a blessing in disguise:)

I need to get home as Mom and Dad are flying off to KL for a trip:)

So, i will be babysitting my siblings and also the property of my parents belonging:)

phew~sighing~

One thing comes another thing...

I've been so exhausted since Monday and had a good rest last nigt! But i feel like i need more.

So, i'm ending this post with a 'Happy Holidays and Happy advent to all of you who are celebrating x'mas'

-Dunt forget to go for confession! :p

Or else you could come and confess your sins to me here.Lol!

WHich is just so ridiculous hahaha.....

Amen!

A gift. To whom May concern.

2010-11-26T20:35:00.007+08:00

We all go through times of struggle against the world.

And In these times, I am inclined to hold my cards pretty close to my chin.

I favor the challenges in life-challenged. And the journey of my upmost grief has come to an end.

I no more hold the grudges!

"What we are to do then is be patient with one another and forgiving. When someone hurts us we are not to " hold a grudge" but we are to forgive them and drop the offense. Even if they do not pick it up and acknowledge that they put it on us, we will still be set free because we have let it go, and letting it go, means never going back and picking it up again. We are to walk away from it, leaving it behind and never looking back at it. If we can do that, then we can go forward and not be held back by holding a grudge which will get heavier over time. " Quoted by FLU, 2010

I'm sure that you have read my previous post. So, yesterday i went and bought something for her to make things out. A friend of mine had told me that i was so stupid. But, deep down in me i felt guilty. For what? I don't have a clue- nor do i know why.

Am i being an angel? or stupid?

I guess both.

Well, this was the small gift.

It's simple but its a GIFT!

If she doesnt like it, well, then i suppose i'm Wasting my KINDNESS for a person like her.Lol!

~I had to hung it on the door knob ~

I tried knocking for a few times, but she didn't care to open.
So, beats her!

She'll soon come out from her nutshell.

Oh! God! Why am i so kind?

p/s: People might say i'm stupid, but i'll tell you this is the last time i'm doing good deeds to her:p Lol!

Embracing our Enemy:) Peace

2010-11-26T08:57:00.008+08:00

As i cruise along my e-mail. I spot my Daily AstroSlam and read it. It sounds like this:-

Hi Felly! Here is your Daily AstroSlam for Friday, November 26

Flirt with the enemy. Hold hands with an archrival. Send flowers to the last person you shouted at. Leave a thank-you note for the meter maid on your windshield -- do anything you can to swing karma in your direction. You're really gonna need it!

Most of you know by now that i had moved to a new house. It's not just because i wanted a life of my own. I love sharing with others or having a housemate. Unfortunately, the 2 years i was with my housemate, i was really stressed out with her way. She is an ungrateful person.

CLeaning and mopping the house was my faithful duty every week. She only cleans her room and never care about the living room not even to think about the cleanliness of the kitchen. Well, i have been considerate with her for so many aspects. I even paid the water and electrical bills the rest of the year in 2009. Still she dares to do things to hurt me and she is so not professional. I respect her as my boss as she is the HEAD of LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT!

I respected her in many ways for 2 years. Not making any noise and walking silently after returning to school and directly marched to my room. Just imagine being so silent mode in that house.. I was afraid to cook too as it might wake her up during her nappy time. I only managed to cook ONLY if i was DAMN hungry. I even respect her bathing time which is 5:30am. If i woke up late then i would end up going to school late too. She almost took 30 minutes in the bathroom as she washes her clothes every morning. So, goes my life in that 2 years. I experienced a horrible and a terrible one.

But, i would like to say thanks to GOD! For i had met this kind of person in my life. It really helps me to be more patient and not to care about anyone. (which is ugly)

(2008)I still remember the day i was posted in that school. I arrived the school on Thursday afternoon. And went to school on Friday. I didn't know that the house was so empty without any kitchen-ware and hardly any onions or woks to be used to cook.

So, on Friday, i directly went back home with only having myself equipped of foods in the morning. My tummy began to grumble in the eve around 5pm. I went in the kitchen as to find myself something to fried on ,but i failed! hahahhahaha... even i couldn't fry myself without any cooking, onions and a wok .LOL

I was left without anything to eat the rest of the whole night!

In the morning, the kakak told me she was going out to attend her class in one of the UMS branch here. WHen i told her to help me to buy me some foods as i hadn't ate since last night, she simply says that " Akak tidak mau lah. Akak tidak pi mana2.Lepas kelas kakak terus balik rumah".

~I pray so hard to God for help that moment as my gastric was already attacking me~

Lamenting on this problem shows that i might be weak. I might be weak here as i'm showering all the unsatisfactions i experienced but in reality i was STRONG enough to face this wicked person who tends to distort my happy life. I face her with a morning smile, talks to her ONLY if she begins a conversation. I cooked dishes for her but never she ate it.Maybe only if i cooked chicken-well, it depends on her mood though.

There was one incident where i only cooked sardin as i was too tired of eating fish and chicken. I invited her to eat and she said " Aiks, sardin saja?" My feelings were mixed with anger and sadness. She aggravated me so much.

The 2nd incident was where i had cooked and invited her to eat and she said "Akak tau bah kalau ajak-ajak ayam sama ajak2 betul" My face turned red as my pressure pumps the blood up towards my head and scattered through my veins and directly to my face.Waaargh!

There were more incidents-and i could make a book of it! hahahahaha

I even bought a pack of 10kg pack of rice and one tong gas for free. And she's using the gas and the rice for free NOW. I didn't even care to think of taking it with me to my new nest.

*********************************

Knock, knock,knock.....

I opened the door and it was my students. As i opened the door, i saw a piece of paper sticking on my door. I was shocked! And i knew it must be HER again! And my prediction hit the nail.

~She had just told me that i could borrow the mattresses for a while just before i could go out and buy a few metres of cloth so i could sew up the holes from the ones in my place~

~She told me to throw the key of my previous house~

As if i am going to steal her stuffs..I wouldn't even dare to enter a house which i am no more living in.....

~She signed off ~

~And this was what i wrote back~

P/S: But then again, what my astroslam's say... It gave me an idea to go out and buy a cute card and put it in front of her door:) I guess she never had someone giving her a present:) I feel pity on her. I guess i should!

Remembering the 'black eyed peas's' song....

'What's happening to the world mama... We're livin like we aint got no mama''

It's better to embrace the enemy:)

i want the world to live in peace and this is what i want to do and show to the new generations...

PEACE TO ALL!!

♥ My foster family in states:)♥

2010-11-22T13:53:00.021+08:00

I hadn't met with my foster family back in States. Hermm??? How long? I'm no good in calculating . So, i guess u guys can help me do the calculation:) Came back to M'sia in 1993 and met them in Fb in 2010. Have you the answer yet?

Mom suddenly called up and told me she found the Kajdans' via FB. I was overwhelmed at the news and quickly opened up my FB account after a few weeks of non-Fb visit. I checked them out And It was REALLY THEM! Gosh!

After 17 years(i reckon it to be), mom and i had tried our best to keep them updated with what's happening to us in Sabah. And lose contact in 1998 and thereafter permenantly did not mail them anything after the 9/11 tragedy.

And this year, we met again! We exchanged stories and Stephen is now in a local band which is getting to the ears of every Americans and i hope their songs will be aired in Malaysia soon hahahaaha. I had messaged Stephen's sister but there was no reply. Maybe they were too busy as they were moving to their old house and re-modeling it. Love to hear that they were okay and everything was fine.

I haven't got much news about Sarah. But i knew she had graduated from the 'Home-school' graduation! On the other hand, Stephen was the one who frequently replied to me and i was so happy that he did. He's still single and now owns a house of his own. Good for you,Steven! (Sorry for the misspelling hehehe)

Sarah and Stephen were my childhood friends. These two quarrels alot and fights over simple things. I was the audience of their fights and their mother (Nancy-who babysits my brother Russell) was the one who'll always gets them to cool off, whom i called the mediator! Heheehehe...:) But then not long after seconds passed by, they'll fight again.

I still recalled the days where we went to their grandparents house before we left to Malaysia:)

I missed the days i was with them.

I remembered during my childhood days, they wore glasses. But, it seems that their pictures in Fb show that they no more depend on their 'glasses' to see. I guess their eyes are geting better and mine is getting worse hahahahahah..

Here are a few replies from Steven:

~Good thing Steven remembered me~

~Do check their website at this link: http://www.myspace.com/darkfromdayonerox

~Stephen is STILL SINGLE and AVAILABLE(Iguess). But, That's how he put it though:)

So,ladies out there go and check out their songs and i'll see whether Steven likes Asian lasses as his partner hahahahaahah.

Don't be mad Stephen! I'm just pulling a joke here:)

ATTENTION EVERYONE: STEPHEN PLAYS THE BASS FOR HIS BAND:)

*After forming in Russelville, Arkansas in 2006, Dark From Day One set out to find their musical direction. In fall 2008,they entered a contest to have their music placed on a Lionsgate film "The Punisher" War zone. and so on.. U guys go and check it out! I'm just writing the same thing which is written in the website hahahaha....

~I hope they could come and attend my wedding~

I missed them.

I wished i could pay them a visit ONE DAY:)

~A silent Prayer~

*I'm sorry to misspell your name*

Annual Dinner 2010

2010-11-17T06:21:00.022+08:00

We had our agony meeting on Saturday and a blissful annual dinner on the next day. I was one of the comittee of the Year End Annual Dinner. I was incharge to register those who came:)

I came around 6:45pm and pulled myself on the chair and thinking what to do next.

~Sitting at the registration table~

They were already a few colleague's of mine there:)

Nothing was to be done as there were no incoming people whom i knew entering the entrance. So, i head up to the 'taking picture zone' on a small stage with a few friends:)

The door gift came a bit late as the person in charge was busy preparing so many things in the earlier hours. Thumbs up to them!

Our theme for this year is "Smart and Casual".

Last year i pulled up a Leopord print theme and this year i came out the SAME THEME hahahhaha. I dunt understand why i love leopord print so much.

~Annual Luncheon 2009~

~And THIS IS ME in 2010~

I'm wondering what to wear next year:)

~Kak Masnah & I~

-We were the Early arrivals-

~Lisa & I~

We were having our annual dinner on the same date as SMK Kuhara. And i bumped into Lisa and managed to get a quick shot with her. Theirs were so grand. Their theme were ethnic and i guess she was trying to be one of those Arabic women in the middle east hehehhehe:)

And she amazingly pulled herself to be ONE:p

They even have a beautiful flowery entrance which can be seen just right behind us:)

Isn't she beauooo-tiful?? I would say -YES!

~Kak Sugiarti, me & Kak Masnah~

(Colleagues of mine)

And here are my table members:

On that night, we had to randomly choose a small square in size paper which is printed with numbers on it and therefore keep it safely as it will be useful during the lucky draw session. Our lucky draw event was quite fair. Whereby, all of us will get a gift. The only thing is that each gifts varies from each other. So, it'll depend on which lucky number we took. I got number 39 and i got a clock!

We also had 'changing gift' session! I gave my present to my own KP hehehhehe.

I hope she liked it.

And Noraida gave me hers....:)

*******************************

Why am i holding a fork while opening the present? Well, ladies and gentlemen! I have no idea what Noraida has given to me as she has taped the whole box. And i had difficulties to open it. I wished to use my teeth as my scissors which helps me to define my appearance on that night hahahahaha.. But, my table members said it was ridiculous for a lovely leopord to show her true nature in the public. ~laughing~

And so i did as politely and wisdom-like to spontaneously grab the fork on the table and open the box. Cikgu Faizal just couldn't stop looking at how seriously i was to use the FORK as my tool. ~giggle~

Waaaaah! I really need plates as to complete my kitchen-ware.

Thanks NORAIDA!

We have 2 types of door gifts which were lady's fan and this cut lil box. The lady's fan was for the ladies and obviously the male got this box. However, i got this from cikgu Ruslan:)

Thanks Lan!

We were also given a few certs as a token of a appreciation. How'd i wished our principle gives us money as a reward for our hard work last year huhuhuu..He should:) Then, at least we have the enthusiasm to work hard in the future and no mor complainings here and there:)

I pray...

A Silent complaint

2010-11-16T20:22:00.003+08:00

There were many things that happened in the past few weeks(in our school) and i'm no good of commenting which side is actually the part to be blamed. However, i'm trying my best not to get involved in such chaotic event. I should be much more flexible and be as neutral as can be.

However, in the end, i was stressed up as i was given 26 periods teaching MUET and 2 classes of SPM. I couldn't bare the consequences as these classes are exam classes. That doesn't include my other posts i hold in other clubs, uniforms and you name it. Hey Common! We have almost 81 teachers and those who could teach English subjects. And we're like what? 2 sessions. I'm getting married next year.Please understand..... My honey will be soon marrying a cuckoo wife hahahaha...

I was quite afraid of defending my own reasons whatmore to meet up my dearest PK1 on that matter. Having said of all the problems and chaoticness that all of us are facing, i dare not add up the heat of pressure.
Suddenly, my case was heard by my selected lawyer and i was called upon to meet the judge heheheeh. We didn't come into a conclusion that my periods will be reduced but i managed to get out from being the 'Ketua' from a particular club. Hermm-??? will it lessen the burden of marking.

It's quite tough after all. As i am the only one teaching MUET. Couldn't they find anyone who could help me?? My students will be sitting their exam in MAY. And after that i am finished with my upper six and continue to carry on with the new lower six in JUne. I need a breath!
Just because MUET does not effect the school's result, therefore they took this matter so light.
I'm not the only one capable of this particular language. And im no Machine.

It's like non-stop working and marking throughout the year... Please give me a rest! Give me form 4.

Ache days!

2010-11-08T07:55:00.010+08:00

I was busy preparing myself to make over this old teachers' quarters.

Bought brushes, paints, garbage plasctics.

As i entered, the woods from the cabinets were already munched up by the termites.

Oh! Gosh! There were many parts needed to be cleaned.

And here Are a few picts before the repainting process was carried out:

~First Day~

~My kids were sweeping the dirty floor~

~Mayliana who was tired after sweeping the rooms

~Me washing the mirrors~

It was tough and had a few splits and it hurts.

~After the spring cleaning was done, now comes the painting part~

~This is us~

~Me mixing the paint with water, trying to use as less as i could~
.

Day 2

~Nasrullah-He was afraid with hights- However, he managed~

~ This part was done the night before~

~This too~

~The aisle to the rooms~

~the 2nd room~

-There are more to come-

This was just the beginning. Oh Gosh! My body is still aching till now. Credits goes to my lovely students who were just kind enough to help me to get things done on time. 2 days of cleaning isn't enough. so, im cosidering to call up my form 6 students this Saturday to help me do another touch up on the house. Can't wait to move in ..Yihaaaa! I hope the aches will soon pay into a self-reward:)

A New home:)

2010-10-26T18:39:00.002+08:00

I have wanted a house of mine for a long time. Had been planning this since last year and now it's like a dream come true. I wouldn't say the house is perfect for me but at least i'm staying alone and i wish that my families could come here and pay me a visit.

There were things needed to be settled before i could completely call it 'Home Sweet Home'. Cleaning, washing, wiping and mending things need to be done.

Had ordered a few students to do the cleaning part.

Next, will be the painting part.

Then, the lenolium will create the mood of the house.

Lastly, will carry my things to the house.

And, btw.. I'm just moving next door hahahahah. same level!

Envelope

2010-10-12T19:42:00.006+08:00

Having lost of something precious without your conscious, is just annoying! I had attended a coordination meeting in Tang Dynasty and backpacked flu and cough from my work place. I didn't know it would get worse as i arrived the hotel.

~Tissues were quite clean but don't be fooled by the color. There's mucus residential there hahahah~

~As i entered the room, i quickly served hot tea for myself to heat up myself~

~My partner hasn't arrived yet and yeah i conquer the room~

The 2 days meeting conjured up the mucus as i had no med and the aircond in the meeting room was just helping the bacts to spread quickly. I kept mending on my hands to hot tea, warm water and everything that is just not under the category 'cold'.

On the last day of the meeting, the most important envelope has eloped from my deary hand which i only realized it on Sunday. Darn! Every materials including the important and original forms has eloped on that day! I was really stressed as to remember where i had placed it.

But i dare not say, as whether it has been thrown by the cleaners or it slipped from my hand-it was ALL my Fault-.

I would dare not do this again! For goodness gracious, my partner was somewhat very patient, soothing and has the best soft voice. She just have the tone of merriness be it in whatever mood. Even after explaining about the lost of the envelop, she was quite worried but her tone just kept me so cool as if there will be a solution to it.

Called our 'Ketua Kawasan'. Told her the truth and Walaaah! with a touch of a simple prayer things were okay. I thank you Lord for being there with me! Thank you!Phewww!

Hari Raya is still Here:)

2010-09-25T14:50:00.008+08:00

It's never too late for another Raya Visit.

Knowing that i had scarcely visited my muslim friends back in my hometown, I surely know i'll soon be paying my revenge here in Tawau...~Evil laugh~

Ending up a feast for my tummy :)

Kak Ida who is a family to be called invited most of her close friends to her open house last Saturday.

~Kak Sadariah, Cg Ruslan & Cg Faizal with Lil' Kuntum taking their pict~

~On the left: Kak Khairaty & Kak Saadiah~
~On the right: Beatrice & (of course me:)~

~Kuntum who is just getting healthier day by day~

~Kak Sabariah Who is busying herself filling up her plate~

Good thing we came earlier.It was still a comfortable time to eat.

After feasting at Kak Ida's house for the 35 minutes, people were coming in and filling up the living room. It was really packed and i think it was time for us to go and visit Kak Masnah and her 2 months old baby. Ah! I really can't wait!

Having the plan of getting married next year has already triggered my thoughts to 'have a baby of my own'. This is just ridiculous! But, whenever i see a baby in front of my eyes, ~Ergh~ felt like pinching it,carrying it and carry it back home !(i meant the baby,heheheh). Be it in the supermarket,having the simplest stroll or in the oblivion places i might counter with them makes me want to proceed my nuptial hour tomorrow. Hah! Only if time permits me to do that. WHich is a hell NO-No!

Sometime i feel perplexed, and anxious to think of what if i suddenly can't concieve.
I think i couldn't bare the state that i couldn't actually be a manufacturer to my own brand.
(Lol-What a chosen vocab to be used)
~Laughing to myself while imagining~
I pray not.....

This is me carrying Kak Masnah's 2 months old baby. I ordered her as soon i sat on the long bench with cushions on it. I didn't care for a drink but for HER. I can't stop carrying her even though she starts vommiting on me. The baby has just finished milking with the mother.And i had the guts to try out my skills to make her burp. Instead of burping she poured milk on her shirt which almost got onto mine.

Reminiscing the time i babysit my brothers and sisters. How I missed them when they were babies. But, they are all now big enough to take care of themselves..And the adorable smiles has gone into thin air hahahah.Only pictures reminds me of how adorable they were. Unlike me! I'm always and forever adorable and sweet hahahah-(so perasan)

Had i not care to carry her, i think i wouldn't know which rank of a carrier i was. I think the baby gave me 6/10. She cried after a few minutes and i had to hand over to the mother.
I couldn't stopped the feeling of the desire to hold the baby. So, i carried her once again and here we are with kak Saadiah.

~I didn't noticed that we wore the same color tops that day ~

~Here we are~
-Kak Masnah is the one wearing the blue 'headgear'-

P/s: I can't wait to have a baby of my own.. It's every woman's dream hehehe:)

It was Tough!

2010-09-23T14:39:00.005+08:00

I was in the middle of bewilderment as i had been told that i was selected to be one of the speaking examiner for MUET in October and have to attend a coordination in KK. While on the other hand, i had been appointed as the chief assisstant to invigilate for PMR.

However, the coordination will be held on the first week which is during PMR.

Darn!!

~Clashed~

My mind went wild seeking for people whom i knew to replace me. It was quite a troublesome calling colleagues to colleagues. Pheww! I was really exhausted at explaining my purpose of calling from one person to another. It was like repeating the same script over and over.

I can't get my mind straight as things were growing more like a giant root sprawling further like a web into the garden of my hub brain. Trapping my spare of room to think for other ways.

And today was just a blessing. Beth called me up and gave me the number i should call and to whom i should talked to. It was a relief after having called the person that i might not be able to be an invigilator as i had a course to attend.(which was true, even though i'm still waiting for the calling letter hehehe)

Now, i felt so relieved after having those heavy thoughts cleared off.

♥Clifford & Beatrice♥

2010-09-18T12:11:00.013+08:00

Last night was the night of this 2 sweet loving Bride & Groom...

Congratulation Clifford and Beatrice!

At last both of you had become husband and wife 'officially'.

May the journey of life ahead showers happiness and merriness.

At the event, i had my eyes on every beautiful lasses and groomy lads. They dressed so fine until i was in my low self esteem and looking at myself whether i was looking okay in my simple dress. I was aware that there were lasses who keeps their beautiness intact within their zone. The way they sit, the way they eat, the way they excuse themselves from elder poeple and the way they look at people- it was a very exciting thing to observe on that night-.

It seems i really need to care of my manner at future events.

~LOL~

But, I'm just me- loud and simba-. (this is only applied if i have geng 'satu kepala')

****************************

People were coming in at their bestest and hunting for the seat they were assigned to. We sat at table no 15. We were in the -0 degrees zone. As the air-conditioner was just right in front of us:) Phewww! I shivered and my bladder forced me to the toilet.

Good thing i brought my shawl and my fiance' and i treated it as our blanky that night hahahhaha....

Without noticing, i turned my view to our neighbour's table on my left and saw a beautiful young lady. She was simple in her ways. But presented a very gorgeous and pleasant figure. And it seems she was someone who i knew. I was thinking. and kept my mind thinking on that matter. Till, something plops up into my mind.

Gosh! It's Claire!

And here we are taking our pictures together:)

She was beautiful as presented in her pictures in her blog....

It never occured in my mind that i would meet her at such event.

And now i have met with my 'Cloney':)

(she gave us this 'term' for both of us)

ANd- i really forgot why..Haha

~Isn't she Lovely~

(Knew her through blogmates)

~The gorgeous and sweet Claire & Me~

**********************
Before i met claire, I met Shanty sitting alone at her table (where Claire was assigned too). So, i asked her to sit with my fiance' and I to chat before peole coming in to filling up the empty seats. I hadn't met her since our foundation in Gaya Teachers' Training College which is now Institut Perguruan Gaya....
It was almost 4 years..And that was quite a long period.

~Shanty and Me~

~Chelster and me~

Chelster and i were studying in the same Uni and celebrated our Convocation in 2008. As she entered the room, i had her figure scanned and digested in my memory box. But, sadly i couldn't recalled where i met her. Suddenly she waved at me. And i waved back. When we met, she told me that she thought i had forgotten about her-Which indeed i had even though we were at the state of having a conversation.
I was mean by asking her" Kau tau, sebernarnya saya lupa bah kau nie siapa. Di mana arr kita jumpa"
When she refreshed my memories back, I was like "Oh, Gosh! How could i forgot about her" I began to feel the humiliation hub in some part of me hahahahhahah.
~I was kinda rude for not remembering my own classmate~ Lol!
I think i am really getting old at remembering ......I need walnuts!

This were a few snaps taken during the event:

From left: elena, vivien(sorry if i misspelled),me and dyla

Friends whom i just met at the event. They were friendly and showered with cordial smiles. And Beauoooo-tiful too:)

You wouldn't do a simple glance on them...u'll do more than thrice heheheh:)

~Me and my Honey~

~Me, bride & groom, dyla and vivien~

~My fiance', Me , Clifford & Beatrice~

~Beth's Mother~

~I love my curls. They look hawt~

Happy Engagement day!

2010-09-16T10:37:00.003+08:00

Being born as a female is the natural process of being hitched as we arived at a certain age. We attract the opposite sex and have a very good daring conversation about stupid stuffs and ended into a serious matters of all affairs.

At last, we start off with the engagement ceremony and will end at the road of matrimony:)

I would like to say congrats to these sweet couples.....

Mariana Lunggeh to be exact was one of my besties back in primary when i really need one as i just got back from states. We used verbal language to converse as i was suffering from digesting BM language- syndrome. I really need a translator. So she was there helping:) It was like yesterday and now she's on the road of happiness:)

We are all getting old, i guess:p

p/s: I wish for the best dear:)

My tale for the Day...

2010-09-15T20:01:00.004+08:00

I believed most of us who are working as a government service applies the relaxation zone of fitting in the 2 weeks hols with activities. Relax and have fun simultaneously without getting exhausted with paper works and students error of answering questions and etc-the list goes on..

Some might be travelling overseas, or travelling back hometown to celeberate the significant celebration - 'Hari Raya', preparing what's best for the celebration and listing names to whom is supposed to be visited first on the first RAYA:)

I was confined to be a very good companion for 5 days with my beloved one. Which i promised i would only spend 2 days. But i was better of with another additional 3 days. I would like to take the blame but, i figured out i would be a 'slut' for my kindness. So, my beloved one has to take all the blame. And yes! he should. After all, it was his unplanned, unpredictable job which hinders him to send me back home to MOMMA. So, was it him to be blamed or was it Time?

Well, i think i'm being too kind here.

Well, i managed myself to get my ass back home by taxi with my cousin who was actually going back to our hometown too-(which in the plan-he should be sending me back home) before my mom spread her spring rolls speech on me:p Which i seem to hate -at this age of mine. I felt i'm still like her lil baby who just couldn't care of her own. Well, that's why moms are meant to be in this world. Which is good-sometimes. We really do need them. But, still i hate the babbling part...(imagining)

*******************************

Had myself stucked at home doing household chores. I only went to a few houses for RAYA. Which in detail was only 2! *Battering eyelashes*

I guess, i know no one back in this part of hometown of mine hahahha..

Or else i have no muslimin friends here?? (Thinking)

Oops, I do! And i supposed to go with friends. Unfortunately, I just couldn't get there on time and in the end, i'm too shy to go alone.

So, i felt so relaxed during this hols without doing much work. But mom was babbling at how turtleness movement i possess during the interval holiday days. I sweep slow, i carry the laundry slow, cook late(which counts under the category of SLOW), and after that ...

i sit

watch tv

never took my nap in the afternoon

Still i was babbled for not exercising...Hmph!

At last, we had a very good argument! And i landed to bed and sleep! Good Nite:)

A change of look of my bed...

2010-08-15T10:10:00.012+08:00

It's Sunday today! I don't know what to do but for sure

- i know i wanted a REST after attending six days school period.

I attended SUNSET MASS yesterday just to spare me time to wake up late today.

Well, I got up a bit late from my daily shool hours. But i didn't managed to stretch my period of slumber sleep. I didn't know what i was on to wake up so decent. I woke up at 8.00am. Darn!

I tried closing up my eyes, but there was no way of me going back to sleep... Waaaargh!

Anyways, i did all the chores at home as my housemate was fasting, so i hold the responsibility of a 'Good housemate should do' hehehehehe...

Bottom line, she never do the cleaning around the house though. ~Cringed~

Well, i'm fine with it!

Am used living with a lazy person...Well- After staying with her for almost 2 years now. WOW! I've been here for almost 2 years now?! Man, I really am a patient young girl:p

Well, enough of the disastisfaction...

(Mentang2 tidak pi church hari nie)

********************************************************************

I swept the floor.

Cleaned the kitchen.

Washed my laundries

(and suddenly it rained-ugh!)

Still,, i continued washing- having the hope that it'll soon stopped.

AND IT DID...

Thank you Lord!

After, i had done with the laundry..

I changed my bedsheet and comforter.

From the cool purple, pinkish flowery bed sheet,

I changed it to

-A new flowery choclatish Queen sized b/sheet which i had just bought from 'Lelong' -

-It was very cheap-

So i couldn't stop saying yes to a RM25 b/sheet.

It has been raining since weeks ago, the weather is quite cool here.

I really need a hot temperature environment....So, i needed hot and warm colors.

So, instead of using my cool blue navy or the black ancient egypt bedsheets, i chose this one.

~Hehehehe... My Piggy present given from my students last year~

At first, i had never thought of where to keep it as i'm not the dolly2 type of person.

But, it seems that, this piggy has something to itself.

Just looking at it, makes me smile.

~I actually dumped him in a very dusty box when i felt so pity looking the face~

Took him out and let him be my friend to sleep as an exchange of the bolster pillow:p

Piggy says: Happy Sunday yawh!

Health starts to be a Priority...

2010-08-12T04:37:00.004+08:00

I still remembered during my teens. Soap was my main facial cleanser. I never thought it would give a big effect on me as i turned into my stage of 'puberty'. Then, i realized how important it was 'to stay pretty and cute' at the age of 15:p

Pimples were already conquering the surface of my face. It had covered the whole of my forehead spreading to my cheek bones and scattered a few population in between my 'ugly Betty' brows. So, it was an obvious 'Y' shaped colonies of pimples.

I slowly began to learn to use facial products which were cheap and affordoble during my teens. As i recalled back, my face wasn't that fussy on any cheap facial products. But, as i grew up, it happened that the products gets expensive and my skin gets more fussy which tells me i'm GETTING OLD.Lol!

Well,that is that!

On the other hand,why do we get back-aches, head aches, and all the aches from? I no longer could walk under the hot sun from Center Point to Sinsuron then to Wisma and back to Cp again. Why? Is it because i'm used to driving a car? No! uh-uh. I get tired easily, get all the aches more faser like bacterias.

Remembered driving 10 hours from Tawau to KK. WHoa! What an experience. I landed on the bed with muscle ache. I even dreamed that i was massaged. hahahah..

I could see my parents complete with so many supplement in the kitchen. I was thinking that the kitchen could turned into a Pharmacy department hehehehe. Sometimes, during my teens, i'd steal some of the pills and drowned it down in my tummy. But, i did not felt any effects as what they said.

Mommy's script:

Talking to my dad: "Eh, Ling! Macam bagus oh tu SUPA EPA. Mcam saya tidak rasa penat o"

Talking to me: "Bagus oh nie evening primrose bah. Macam tidak sudah sakit belakang. You better take this while you're still young"

And now, I tend to be like my parents. I'm begginning to realize that 'Health' is my main priorty at this age around.

-Hah! Its never too late too start-

-Toxins from my tummy-

Eeww! I never thought it would be so ugah-lay. I wonder what my inner tummy looks like.It would be disgusting to see what i've eaten for the past years. Thinking of the grilled chickens, fats and so much mixed food ingredients..Ugh! kesian my perut! No wonder its beginning to increase in size hehehehe...

IN LOVING MEMORY

2010-08-08T20:12:00.014+08:00

I was busy camping with the kids for the 'SCOUT DAY' national level joined by our neighbour scouts from Indonesia (Tarakan, Sebatik and NUnukan).

-Cooked a simple fried rice mixed shrimps -

-With my lovely students-

My shift to the camp was only on Saturday and MOnday( the last day of the event).

And it was MONDAY..Yeah! I get to rest...

I had fun waking up late to school during replacement class on Saturday and the usual daily school day on Monday. You would never get the easy ticket to not attend to school without any reason. And i had a very strong REASON for that hehehhhehe..

Arriving home after the event, i recieved a sudden call from my younger sister, Heather. She was crying heavily at the end of the line. I remain calm. I didn't drop a tear..But, my heart pounded fast.

It was a mixture of laughter and sorrowness in the same week.

My grandmother had passed away last Monday on Aug,2nd,2010.

I Asked a favor from a friend of mine to rush me to the airport and buy a ticket on the spot. At that nick of time, i managed to throw in my camera, toilettries and needed clothes.

I was all ready.

I arrived late. So, i had to stay a night in KK. Early morning, my fiance,in laws and i drove back to my grandma's kampung.

-Me after teary session -

-My sister Heather(on the far left),Cheche(my niece), Tiqa and Dilla(my cuzzies)-

-My uncle Albert, Daddy, Mommy, Uncle Asang, Fel and my nephew(being blocked by a leaf)-

(front row)

No more 'Beras kampung supplier'. It was my nenek who loves to send us rice. So, we never ran out of rice for the past years because of her. And now.......aaargh! I think we have to learn to eat beras kedai:)

A Breath-tAking Holiday in Bali

2010-06-24T09:46:00.008+08:00

Good Friday:)

2010-04-01T18:56:00.002+08:00

I'm currently at the airport waiting for my plan to fetch me. My abrupt decision yesterday led me to where i am now. It never occured in my mind that i was going back to my Hometown AGAIN! Hah!

It never popped my in mind to actually come home. And, having no water supplies at home drives me stronger to just come back and meet my family:)

So, I'm on ma way back....Yihaa:)

So soon to say good-bye!

2010-02-26T02:22:00.008+08:00

People come and go, Season changes,Winter to spring, spring to summer, summer to fall and FALL back to winter. It's the circle of life where you'll come back to ONE...

God creates beautiful things on earth to be savaged in good manners, Little monuments of blissful life were given to us as a GIFT, Presents us with Happy Hour Life-time and Merriness, Shower us the values of LOVE and creeps us with the celestial bodies.

I was in bed early, to get a good rest upon the swinging moments of defined workloads. Craving on a sweet resting day today, i was called in the wee mo' at ONE by my Honey. I was overwhelmed to get a very bad news.

A friend of mine had passed away. He was one of my 'other half's' cousin. I couldn't imagine that his young life was taken so soon.

~Cried, sobbed, devastated~

In just a matter of seconds, life will be back to ZERO! And back to DUst...

A combat....

2010-02-22T18:42:00.004+08:00

I have been in this war zone with the sneezing and wheezing periods for almost 3 weeks by now. It was a burden to carry all the mucus almost every where i went. Be it in school nor out from school.

And the most toughest thing i had to do was trying to get the mucus away from my nostril tunnels to avoid my voice being nasalized.

I once had a bad day arguing with the mucus colonies. But, i had no weapon to estricate them colonies from my nasal tunnels to my directed pipeline lung.

After a week enduring the restless nights, I brought myself to the clinic and met the doctor to combat the matter. But, it really took a real good deed in persuading my flu to go away. And now i'm grateful as i could see the sign of recovery ahead of me:)

I couldn't stand taking Sedillix-DM(Linctus)- a medicine that relieves runny noses, sneezing and stuffy nose. It was really S.T.R.O.N.G! After a few minutes taking it, i surrendered myself on the bed. I landed graciously on bed and dozed off to dreamland:)

I wouldn't dare to take it during weekdays as it is my working days. I might fall asleep while erecting stiffly holding a marker pen on the other hand.

~I wouldn't dare to humiliate myself~ Never!! Uh-uh!

Randomness

2010-02-21T21:11:00.005+08:00

Hadn't been blogging for quite some time now. Had been busy with my CNY holidays and back home 'kampung' activities..

I was totally unconscious of how bad my skin color had changed due to the sun rays during sport days and netball competiton which was held right after our school sports day ended.

As i arrived back home(kampung), i then realized i was darker compare to anyone else's around me. And it was then obvious as most people i met and stayed with were quite fair. ~SIGH~

I mentioned of not being so concerned about my skin complextion. However, i ended up buying a complete set of skin product hehehehe:)

~Hope I'll get my natural (not so dark) skin tone back~

Oh yeah.... Our team didn't managed to get into the semi-final.

What a waste tanning under the scorching hot sun....

Talking about skin...I am so sad,annoyed and dissapointed as i now have a very unpleasant mark on my leg.

I got it after the grazing cement ditch incident.

I think i'll have to wait another 5 more years to get rid of the mark.

I can't wear dresses anymore?!

*************************************************

CNY holidays were short. I had to get back to Tawau before Wednesday! Many schools were on a 1 week hols and we weren't....~sad~

But my sadness had shifted into joy! I begin playing badminton in the evenings and it really helped me to forget about hometown and the bittter events:)

I wish for more better lucks to come in the coming months and years......

*************************************************

Happy Lent to everyone out there!

Fingers Crossed!!

2010-02-10T05:53:00.007+08:00

It's February by now! Gosh! I hadn't much noticed on the shortcoming event this month. I think i have been drooling of with packed of activities that just made me a bit ignorant at how time really flies. This particularly 2 early months this year, is kinda of tacky. I get most of my sweats out let alone a pretty change of skin color( i'm darker by now).

I'm getting myself involve in coaching netball which i can't say i am, cause i myself have no experience in techniques. Was only able to dig in all the rusty techniques i had during my high school days. I don't know whether it is still applicable. Time changes, people change, i'm sure the rules change too! No sweat!

Had few friendly matches with other schools and i came to a conclusion that, something was wrong here...... They can't get through the defense of their oppenent nor could they try to get a single shoot. It was a terrible game as it was clear crystal mistakes that they knew it was wrong to do. I'm just crossing my fingers as the real big game begins tomorrow.

Let Lord guide us through each match! ~long exhale~
