Hello...hello...hello...

Wow! It's been a very very long time since I updated my blog. Been very busy the whole of April with the peak filing period. Had been going home late almost every day and working every Saturdays. Any time at home was for resting and spending time with hubby. Glad that finally, the battle is over! Managed to pull through the rough time at work with 'kerenah' fellow colleagues, temp staff and taxpayers. Though we had our fights and cried at work, I'm glad that my working relationship with other colleagues is still good. Stressful time's over!! Yahoo...

I've also had my well deserved break. Went for a holiday with beloved hubby to Gold Coast Australia in early May. This is in conjunction with hubby's birthday and our 8th wedding anniversary. Wow! How time flies. 8 years already huh?

Trip to Gold Coast was fantabulous!! Had a 'boomerang' time!! We actually went to two places, 1) Tangalooma Island Resort and 2) Gold Coast - Surfers Paradise.

To find out more about Gold Coast trip, check out my next post.

What a day....

As usual, I will set the alarm clock at 5.45am. And as usual, I won't wake up at 5.45am sharp. Haha..I will go back to sleep and wake up at abt 6.10am. That's me everyday. Need time to warm up..can't wake up straight away. I'll get a headache. Hee..

I was out of the house at 6.50am. I know that my usual bus will come at abt 7am. However, juz now, it was a little bit early. I was abt 30 metres from the bus stop when I saw the bus coming. Then I realised that there were not many people at the bus stop. So I started running. When I was abt 2 metres away from the bus door, the Apek juz closed the door and moved off. My blood juz shoot to the top seh....ZENGGGG!!!!! Apek tu dgn 'muka toyer' dia, dia macam action tak nampak aku...eeee GERAM nya!!!

I was so angry that I knocked on the door repeatedly with my TODAY newspaper. I don't care abt the surroundings, whether people at the bus stop or in the bus was watching me. I don't give a damn! I juz want to get onto the bus! How the hell did the Apek not see that I was running and juz moved off like that?!? Buta ke per?!?

I was actually not late for work. I can wait for the next bus. But what for? I run already, might as well make my running worth it right? So I die die must get onto the bus...

Lucky the Apek stopped the bus for me. Kalau takkkkkkkk.....hmm..blom terpikir apa nak buat ngan Apek tu. Walaupun geram, aku tetap say "THANK YOU" to the Apek! *wink* *wink* Courtesy goes a long way... :)

In the bus, as usual, I will msg my husband to complaint. After I "nyek nyek nyek" at him, his reply was to ask me to cool down and don't go and knock on the mrt door and get angry at the mrt driver. Hmph! Kong asam! :p

Bowling at SAFRA Tampines

Both my hubby and I, together with my siblings went for a bowling game. We had planned to play bowling for quite sometime but only managed to get together juz now. It was fun and we enjoyed ourselves.

I was in the last place for the 1st game...ditewaskan oleh lelaki dan adik2. Hmph! Takper... takper... baru warm up. Belom form lagik...rilek..nanti aku menang punya. Chedebah.

Tapi malangnya...aku kalah jugak for the 2nd & 3rd game, but not in the last place! Hah hah...Yang Champion...my brother...he conquered the game...came in 1st all the time. Cheh! Takper Bro...well done! Congrats! Lain kali I will beat u.. :)

Tapi ada kejadian yg tak disangka2 berlaku...when my turn came....wahh..aku bersemangat! I was talking to myself all the time. Ok ok..focus...focus....tengok arrow tu betul2..ignore the rest..concentrate...ok ok here goes...dgn semangatnya aku lontar bola tu...dan dgn lajunya bola tu termelanton ke belakang...alamak!! malunya....org kat lane sebelah pun terperanjat...and they were all laughing at me...hehehehe...

I kept laughing at myself too...hee hee...selenger nya...malu sakkk....tak pernah umur aku terlepas bola bowling..nasib takder org ambik video...kalo tak bleh antar kat America's Funniest Home Video....hahaha...malunya akuuuu....

But no matter what happens, the game must go on...so dgn selambanya aku meneruskan permainan ku tadi...hehehe..bila teringat balik...ek eh tak sangka aku boleh buat muka sadin... :P

Hope we can have the chance to get together again...maybe when my uncle got a chalet at Downtown East at the end of this month...I shall ask my other cousins to join in....that will be more fun!! I'm so looking forward to it.

So Darling, can you take leave please? :)

Short trip to Melaka - 3 to 4 March 2007

Both my husband and I, together with my parents-in-law, went to Melaka last weekend to attend a wedding. My husband's grandfather was from Melaka and the person who invited us was my father-in-law's cousin. So his son who got married yesterday is my husband's two pupu (direct translation of dua pupu...hahaha (very lame...yes I know :p)).

I've always wanted to attend a wedding in Malaysia. Never attended one, or I should say, I had attended one before but I was too small to recall how it was like. So, I was eager to go and see!

Well, it was not much of a surprise. The wedding reception was about the same as the one in Singapore with buffet lunch, DJ playing the music, even the food was about the same..nasi 'putih' with 'lemak nangka' and salted fish and nasi briyani (it's more like tomato rice though) with 'ayam masak merah'. But the 'kick' of the day, the sambal belacan!!! Powerdema! Pedas gila! Fuhhh...berpeluh-peluh...dahlah cuaca panas..meleleh-leleh peluh. Tapi best ahhh...as one of my colleague would always say "MELANCH.." (ooppss)

It was a good trip. Got to meet most of Abah's cousins. Went to visit their house and get to meet their mother (nenek ni kurang pendengaran...anak2 dia semua cakap kat dia kena pekik2... kecoh!!!). But it was fun to watch and observe everything. :)

Anyway, when we visited them, biasalah kita org Melayu, kalau tetamu datang mesti kena makan. So during most of the visitings, I kept on eating and eating and eating walaupun dah kenyang coz the tuan rumah macam tak dengar atau buat2 tak dengar kalau kita cakap "Dah lah...kita dah makan tadi, masih kenyang." They still 'force' us to eat. So we eat a bit lor, taknak kecikkan hati tuan rumah. :)

Other than the wedding and visitings, another MUST thing to do in Melaka is.....to go to the "Manggis" shop and eat CHENDOL!!!! Hee hee hee...and another thing that I must do is....eat at KENNY ROGERS!!!! Maacaaroonii and cheeeessseeeeeee....hhhmmmmmm......yummyyyyy!!!!!

So if you were to go to Melaka next time, try the Chendol okay!! It's a MUST!
