my maids concerns...

Yesterday my mum’s maid came to my house for the first time. First thing  she asked is where does Aisya n Zaara sleep. So I showed her their room which is across the hall from mine. She had this very horrified look.

Bibik : Nie jauh dari bilik kamu, macam mana kalau diorg nangis tgh2 malam?

Me : Saya ada beli macam radio untuk cakap2 (baby monitor la tu). Kalau diorg nangis

        saya akan dgr…

Bibik : betul ke boleh dgr??

X pasal2 kene la pulak demo kat my maid how loud the monitor really was…then:

Bibik: pastu kalau diorg sejuk ke macam mana?

Me : Radio tu boleh baca suhu bilik pastu tunjuk dekat radio saya.

Bibik: betul ke?

Demo la pulak room temp reader tu..

Haih..apparently the maid was more concern than my mum…Everyday, if by 745 I’ve not reached the house, she’ll call and ask where are you. And 99% of the time,she’ll already be waiting at the gate for them…

2.5 month hiatus...

The mood to update this blog come n goes... there are times that i really semangat wanna write..but i think i can attribute the 3 month hiatus to 2 major things

1) Moving into my own place...yeay!! finally...it so much fun having ur own place to do as u please..n i would admit that it helps a lot in my relationship with Mirul...less stress=less fights...yeay...i officially moved in on the 4 June 2010...but the weeks leading up to it was super super busy with cleaning the house n getting the appliances n the wrapping up of renovations...of course there were hiccups...but, its done..so I AM FINALLY LIVING ON MY OWN...i send Aisya n Zaara to my parents everyday on the way to work but I'll pick them up after work..once in a while if we come back late, then they'll have the pleasure of sleeping with their grandparents...hahahahaha...

2) MY EXAM!!...took my exam on the 16 June 2010..i get frustrated with exams coz u think u covered everything n when u look at the question, u'll still go "wat the hell is this??"...argh!!

anyway,

brought them to the zoo last Saturday..they were soo happy...Aisya wanted to see the "NAKE"snake n the "PANTS'(elephants) but the one where she got the mos texcited with her eyes going wide was.......THE GIFT SHOP...so my daughter kan??hahahaha...its the exact same expression when she see Toys R Us...her fav words now r "NO" n "NOW"...sound familiar??? i.e:
me: Aisya, time to sleep
Aisya: No
me: Aisya, time to mandi
Aisya : No
but...at the same time,
"mummy, nak milk NOW!!!
"mummy, jom NOW!!"
sounds familiar???hahahahahahaha...apparently she's a replica of me??

my second one (Zaara) is more feminine...tp feminine pun, still byk cakap gak...
they have started fighting now..a few days back gaduh pasal bantal!! u would think that with Zaara being only 7 months old, it would still be sometime before the fights start..but no...dh start dah...n at 630 in the MORNING..wah!!!
my TV is more or less set at Disney playhouse when they are around...mmg x leh nk change dah...sometimes i find myself singing the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse song in the office alone...hahahaha
yesterday Aisya was asking for a tricycle...she's so big...i feel like crying...wahahaha

My babies are growing up FAST!!

Aisya dh pandai sebut Mummy!! Yeay..sgt happy…n dia suka menyapu skarang..so I bought her a kids cleaning set yg ada broom,mop dust pan…so dok sibuk sapu the whole house…siap bongkok2 to reach under the chair..hopefully, nanti bila dh masuk rumah sendiri, dia leh sapu the whole house..hahaha




SO now in the morning its “Mummy, nk book!” (nk tgk jungle book)..she looks at the cows picture n says “Moo”..but wat really warms my heart is theway she totally LOVES her sister…I mean she can be asleep but if her sister cries,she’ll wake up, reach over n pat her sister back to sleep…sgt baik nyer kakak.. every morning, she will surely look for her sister n give Zaara a good morning kiss..aww..



Zaara pulak has a smile that will melt the coldest heart… I mean u can come home in the worst mood ever n she will give u this HUGE smile n u just cant help but smile back.. n her hair…actually reminds me of Fity, my best frens hair back in school…is just so maggie..n she’s so fair,u would think she’s never seen the sun..hahaha..



If Aisya’s eyes will let her get away with things, Zaara’s smile will get her everything she demands..It’ll be an amusing thing later on when they figure out their strength and try it over Mirul…hahahaha…



When the 2 of the sit together n start chit chatting in their own language, it makes actually wonder wat are they talking bout…because its like they actually have their own language n totally understand each other…I have a feeling that there’ll be a lot of instances where they’ll be teaming up together against me n mirul..huhuhuhuhu

Work in progress..Finally...

My renovation dh start...TODAY…yeay!!! met up with Adrian just now n his workers were setting up n getting ready to start…should finish in a month..so Insyallah sempat la nk masuk before World Cup..whee…yg lawak nyer…smua dh start tanya “whens ur house warming??” im like “What??” coz actually Im the type yg selagi my house x complete to my satisfaction even to the small2 things, mmg I x kan jemput org lg.. Sorry :)




But seriously this is a tiring thing coz we r running everywhere tgh carik best price…nk carik shower head pun satu row kedai2 kat jln Ipoh tu me n mirul pusing…but actually its fun n its rather satisfying coz its for ur own house…last week we went to buy the fans, the air cond n the ventilation fan for the kitchen..2 weekends ago, we went to buy our lights, choose paint colour (I think most ppl can guess wat my room colour is gonna be *wink*),kitchen sink, jumpa kitchen cabinet contractor…wah..tired but satisfying..



The thing is, I got no eye for decorations at all so im quite worried actually that wat I choose clashes with each other..well..just hope for the best kan…

Now gotta start packing already...wow...the thought of leaving my mum's house actually makes me wanna cry..

new years resolution!!

OK..i know its March n the title is a lil off..actually this is bout my new years resolution... i actually managed to keep it even UNTIL NOW!! wheee...m sooo proud of myself *pats self* hopefully it'll last till end of the year :)

addicted to dates...

Ok..as of recently i started to get addicted to dates..no..not going out with boys kinda dates..Dates as in the fruit..one of the favourite fruit of our beloved Prophet (pbuh)..

Here are some facts on dates:


- it is high in potassium (meaning it helps those with constipation) and also contains phosphorus, magnesium, calcium and iron.

- As for vitamins, it contains Vitamin A, Vitamin K, Niacin, Folate and Choline.

- One date is about 20 calories

- It is a good source of energy

- It is easily digested

- It is good for intestinal health as in it helps to establish a colony of friendly bacteria in the intestines.

- It is good to strengthen the heart

- Though it is sweet, it does not attract ants at all

- It could be kept at room temperature or even in the fridge for a very long time without spoiling

- now this one is pretty interesting though I am not sure if it is true or not…. it could be used to make a tonic to improve sexual stamina and sterility due to functional disorders.

Imagine that, dates could help your sex life! Forget the little blue pill and have more dates…
