Salam Takziah

Takziah to my UA81 classmate, Sharifah Fazlinda Shaik Ismail (ChePah) and family ke atas kepulangan ayahanda beliau ke rahmatullah, setahun selepas arwah ibu beliau menyahut seruan Ilahi.

Semoga roh arwah dicucuri rahmat dan ditempatkan di kalangan golongan yang beriman dan beramal soleh. AMIN.

Al-Fatihah..

Selamat Pengantin Baru Zaty & Kamarudzaman

Today I attended Zaty's wedding at Dengkil. Zaty was my classmate during A-Levels. She was one of the Convent girls...hehehe! She is also my next door neighbour in the noisy 3rd floor hostel.

I spent the night at D.U yesterday so Dida and I planned to meet up at KLIA since Ikram wanted to open an account with CIMB and one of the CIMB's operating on Sunday is at KLIA. The plan was to meet at 12.30 noon because Zaty's majlis bersanding was scheduled at 12.45 but I only arrived at KLIA at that time. Since I was the one who brought the map, I lead the way, although I did warn her that there are bound to be several U-turns as maps and I do not get along..haha!

I remembered making 1 U-turn and I think we were on the right track but the drive seemed so long, I wondered if we were heading at the right direction. Finally when we reached Kolej Teknologi Timur, I made a stopped, told Dida and Ikram that this bimbo cannot read maps and decided that Ikram should lead the way. Turned out that we were going the right way (~so I take back my bimbo confession~) and finally arrived at Zaty's house in Kampung Jenderam Hilir at 1.15 p.m.

Alhamdulillah, the groom's party also arrived late so we managed to chat with Zaty for a while and watch pengantin berarak. Aira cried when she heard the kompang. We all sat, ate and chatted..mostly about our kids. As much as I wanted to bitch about work, I can't do so due to circumstances. Managed to squash Kahlil, Dida's son who is so damn adorable! We stayed there for about an hour, took photos with the newlyweds and left at about 2.30 p.m.

Selamat Pengantin Baru Zatilaziya & Kamarudzaman! Semoga kekal hingga ke anak cucu. AMIN!!

Terry Fox Run 2009

Terrance Stanley "Terry" Fox, CC (July 28, 1958 – June 28, 1981) was a Canadian humanitarian, athlete, and cancer treatment activist. He became famous for the Marathon of Hope, a cross-Canada run to raise money for cancer research, which Fox ran with one prosthetic leg. He is considered one of Canada's greatest heroes and is celebrated internationally every September as people participate in the Terry Fox Run, the world's largest one-day fundraiser for cancer research.
-From Wikipedia

Last Sunday, my husband and I participated in the Terry Fox Run 2009 at Lake Garden. This is my first time participating, but Rafiq's second. I didn't get to join last year because I was pregnant with Aira. We were also joined by my brother in-law, Feroz and Geng DP, Kak Eja, Wawa and Didi. Yang kelakarnya, Geng DP memula detour ke Taman Tasik Titiwangsa, thinking the event was held there. Nasib baik wa tepon!

Aanyways, alhamdulillah Geng DP made it on time, and sempat tengok pelbagai ragam orang yang participate. Young, old, bare foot, on bicycles, roller blades, with families, colleagues. Memang ramai orang. I saw JJ from Hitz.fm...ngeeee! Rafiq joined the Sarong Party Gang...as he did last year. this year the run was divided into 3.5km and 5km. It started at about 9 a.m.





Sarong Party Gang + Starbucks Baristas


Start jalan. Ramai kan participants?

All of us walked diikuti dengan aksi cam-whoring yang terlampau. We walked most of the journeys..except when our cameramen (Feroz & Did) were focusing on us..hahaha! Initially we wanted to do the 5km run but ended up doing 3.5km (except for Rafiq who were wondering where the heck we were...hahahah!) Didi sempat ajar Feroz teknik mengambil gambar lagi!


Macam-macam gaya


Apa yang penting??! ADA GAYA!!!




Tengah tunggu photography lessons abis daaaa!


Drawing and colouring competition for children


Dah jalan jauh kena makan lebih!!

We left Lake Garden at about 10.30 p.m. I think there were other activities. Yasmin Yusuf was the mc for the event and when we left there were dancers doing bhangra. I really had a great time!

Makan-makan @ Kota Damansara

Last Saturday my brother hosted a makan-makan at his place. Post raya open house kot, memandangkan dia tak sempat buat open house during raya.

Thought of going around 6 p.m., but Mak cakap dia ajak family from 8 p.m. onwards. So lepas Maghrib, rombongan dari D.U (including us) pun datang ler memeriahkan majlis.















It was a very fine and enjoyable Saturday!

The Sweetest Thing

Yesterday, I went to bed early as I was tired from my trip to Sarawak. Faiq came into the room and requested for bedtime stories. "Mama nak cerita monkey dengan gajah!"

After I', done with the story-telling, I gave him a kiss and told him that I wanted to sleep early that night. When I asked for a kiss, he refused, told me that he didn't want to say good night to me and left the room. A few seconds later. I heard the door creaked. I thought his toys, rupa-rupanya he came by to kiss me! He can be soooooo sweet sometimes :o)

And congratulations to Zalia & Haiz on the birth of Mini Haiz :o)

Kena Sound

Faiq nih..bila dia nak suruh orang ke tepi, mesti dia akan cakap, "TEPI LAH!" dengan nada yang kasar.

Baru-baru nih..dia dok start sebut, "Excuse me...", alhamdulillah berkat belajar kat school.

Have been trying to train him bab mannerism nih...sometimes dia ok, sometimes dia lupa.

Tapi tadi tergelak besar bila dengar dialog nih...masa Faiq halang tv.

Babah: Faiq, tepilah!!

Faiq: Ish, Babah nih tak boleh ke cakap "Excuse me"?

Hmmm...Faiq, Faiq!
