mission accomplished…

last monday, we, the sinfully partners (sha, zura and me) took a day off from our normal busy work to attend a briefing on Business Funding at PUNB KL Sentral from 10am to 12.30pm. the briefing was quite informative for those who in needs to run a business with financial assistance from PUNB. we registered and were given a set of questionnaires on entrepreneurship. we manage to finish all in less than 30 mins coz we were soooo hungry.

our lunch was at saba restaurant in ampang. we ordered chicken kabsah. a big portion that i get to bring some home. i love the rice and the chicken… very tender.  in fact i love all of the food served. must go again..!!

after lunch, we went to buy items for samples for our upcoming project. that was the main mission of the day. from kl to puchong. mission accomplished.

the 2nd mission was to bring zura to starbuck in sect 9 at 7pm for a surprise birthday gathering with the gbs. all went smooth until on the way back to shah alam, zura told us that she has another appointment by 7.30pm. alamak…!!! ok.. ok.. calm down ina. think… think… as we reached shah alam by 6pm, my bb battery pulak kong… haihh time tgh critical la nak kong… nak sms dah tak boleh. nak cakap dgn sha pun tak boleh coz 3 of us in the car.  so the only way to communicate with sha was writing a note to her…

a bit chaos la jugak… my note to sha…

you sms lanie… mintak lanie call zura and ask her to come to starbuck. bagitau nak bagi barang…

then lanie called sha. i called lanie on sha’s ip. an awkward conversation with her to avoid zura getting suspicious. zura thought i called shah. then lanie called sha. another awkward conversation went on. after a minute, lanie called zura. ok… zura agreed to meet up at starbuck… phew…!!! the mission almost aborted…

2 nights in KL…

yup… that’s where we spent the school holidays recently. we stayed at sheraton imperial kl from 17th to 19th march and it was our “farthest” holiday destination…

ma’am besar tengah relaxing… penat lepas angkat beg…

 

1st day…

after check-in, we took monorail at medan tuanku station, which is few steps away from the hotel, and stopped at bukit bintang station. next to the station is bukit bintang plaza. i cant remember the last time i went there but for sure… it was a very loooongg time ago, time dating dulu. we had a late lunch at johnny’s. lepas lunch, baru la ada energy nak ber-window + shopping for hours…!!!

 

2nd day…

after breakfast, we took the hotel shuttle to aquaria klcc. tengok aquaria floor map macam besar tapi kannnn…

a trunk and fishes in a bottle…

after lunch, we took cab back to hotel coz it was raining…!!! spoilt the day laa…

 

at the swimming pool…

kena balut.. kalau tak dia nak masuk lagi dlm pool lagi…

 

3rd day…

it’s time… back to reality… nooo…!!!

good bye…!!!

 

p/s: a day after we checked out, my cuz, who used to work at the hotel for few years, told me the hotel is haunted…!!!

 

i bet aira could see “things…” ok me having goosebumps now…

surprised…!!!

it was march 08, 2011, shah was at his usual, sending me to work and we had breakfast together. that’s weird coz normally he had to rush to work.

at work, i had conversations through emails with sha, zura & kae. they wanted to go to bicycle shop to get few things that night and i even requested them to buy a cycling jersey for me… tapi tipah tertipu…!!!

 

at 4.00pm, shah sms-ed:

shah: jom balik awal nak..

me: jomsss..

shah: k. 4.30 tepattt turun.

me: ekkk.. u dah sampai ke 430 tu nanti.

shah: dah kat bawah ni tengok le

me: tak keje ke? ada pau tak? i lapar…

shah: nanti i tapaukan. u turun tau. i parked kat kedai bongkah.

me: ok…

after maghrib, we all get ready for a special dinner. he doesnt want to tell me where and insisted that i be blindfolded. fine with me but with a little concern too. ntah mana2 la dia nak bawak we all ni…

 

the moment i sat in the car, i was blindfolded. i thought it’s easy coz i could recognise all the turnings even i cant see. as soon as we reached the roundabout, shah confused my mind by making few rounds that i totally lost counts.. (shootttt…!!!). so i gave up and sat silently.

 

after half hour journey or so, we reached the destination and…

to feeda, kae, lanie, linda, sha & zura…

firstly, i wanna thank you all for coming and celebrating the ‘SERIOUSLY’ surprise party with me. Of course special thanks to my other half and my kids la kan... with all the kelentong-ness, it was indeed a very special birthday with all of you around celebrating with me...

thank you so much to Sunway Kayangan stooges for your hard work and effort for making it possible. And Sha... your willingness to hold the party at your place full with chaos and laughter. superb food plus the background music lagi...

Lanie, Feeda, Linda, Kae Zura & Sha... thank you so very much for the pressies... and the friendship - priceless. You gals are the bestest...!!!

It was one of most memorable birthday ever in my 39-year of life... :D

what’s for dinner…???

tak tahuuuuu…

okie… that’s a standard answer i’ll get mostly from shah, adam and adli. aira??.. she’s in diff case situation. di mana ada makanan, di situ la ada aira…

during working days, i’ll prepare either cereal, bread or nasi goreng for breakfast for the kids before they go to school. adli in morning session and adam will have brunch coz he’s in afternoon session. porridge for aira for her stay at daycare center.

for lunch, i’ll prepare at least 2 dishes for adli after school. 

the above are prepared early in the morning before i go to work ye…

when comes to dinner time, it’s always the hardest. since we all eat rice most of the days at lunch, dinner memang tak nak makan nasi dah. so that’s the main reason. one says noodles, one says burger, one says naan cheese, another says anything will do… haiih.. berbagai la pulak.. so apa lagi… beli aje la…

well, another reason is mmg tak sempat nak masak pun. mak balik lambat…

what for dinner tonight..??? hmmm…. (tak nak pikir aaa…)

my 2nd kayuh…

last sunday, i joined my cycling buddies and this time it was almost triple KM from my 1st kayuh. jauh ok…

one of our few pit stop… amik napas skit.. semput jap. sambil bersnap sana sini menunggu kae…

another pit stop. makan time with my cycling buddies: kae, me, sha and zura

 

route: BKJ – Sg Buloh exit – BKJ = 30KM (lebih sikit kata zura…)

1st time kayuh jauh ni mmg memeritkan. after few km of cycling, i cant walk straight.. need to bend a little bit.. which almost like crawling coz i cant feel my leg.. and the aching came later in the afternoon… macam nak demam…

overall, it was another challenging ride for me with few road hills but i managed.. and i had fun riding with them..


jom kayuh lagi…

my 1st kayuh…

after much persuasion, at last shah agreed to kayuh with me on one fine saturday. shah, his bro and myself started at 7 am, cycled to sect 3 for breakfast at mamak and reached home around 9 am.

i tell you… it was really a challenge for me when comes to hill road. right after the 1st hill, i felt all my energy drained out. nausea, yawning, exhaustion segala bagai… u name it lah.. mana taknyer… nak cycle tapi tak makan. motip: pasal nak gi makan.. apa daa.. padan muka..!! hehehe but.. but.. i continued okay..!!!

so that was my 1st kayuh... BB-sect 3-BB = 12 km… woohooo… bangga…
