A brother's love

Hariz has been admitted to PMC for the past couple of nights due to his asthma, the poor thing. This morning Hady came to visit his little brother and this scene caught my eye.. Hady holding on to Hariz's hand and telling Hariz not to be scared and that he'll be there for Hariz always. He's grown to be such a pleasant boy, my Hady, Mama's so proud of you..

I'm a fishy!

Baby Hariz is down with another asthma attack and he's already a pro with the nebulizer. I really hope he outgrows this.. Kesian tengok dia when he gets an attack.. Mama loves u Sayang!

I keep myself busy busy busy

What a weekend!

Started off with my morning swim and some breakfast at the FAM Char Kuey Teow with Muz and the clan followed by the PJ Karnival Blogger's Hunt @ Jaya 33. Didn't have any expectations, as all the master hunters were there, it was just another hunt to practise on for me. So there we were, me, Ami, Kroll and Rizal, doing a walk hunt in one and a half hours. Now, on a normal day, I would have suffered through the questions, but on Saturday, our thinking caps worked! And to near perfection! We had only one mistake (darn!) and itu pun, so rugi, we saw the answer but were not convinced that it could be the answer only to find out later that it was and cost us the championship! We lost by 1 point! We didn't fight long enough as a team! Arghhhh!!! It's not every day that I get to see my name way up there in Mike Pang's Blog so it certainly felt good that we were announced the runner's up for the hunt!

Whilst waiting for the results, Ami and I took Che Yu (Ami's younger sister) and the two boys out for some Nasi Padang in Kelana Jaya with some Char Kui for desserts, Shazz, the Char Kui I eat on your behalf k? He he he he he..

Come Sunday morning and it was Father's day! Hariz hurriedly came into the room asking me to find his school bag coz he had made a gift for his Papa and wanted so eagerly to give it to him. Happy Father's Day Papa, I hope you like all the gifts that you got this year, I think you do, since you can't seem to put down the iPod at all! Ha ha ha.. Ami and I had a mini celebration @ our neighbourhood Kopitiam, thereafter he sent me to Gardens for me to join my other friends for a photoshop workshop whilst he went to work.

Today's photoshop class was conducted by Wazari Wazir. I've been admiring his work for quite some time, and we were lucky enough to be able to steal a few hours of his busy schedule to help us learn the art of photoshop. There were 5 of us today, Kamal, Aida, Razzak and Fendi including me, though Fendi was more assistant Sifu rather than a student like us.. He he he..

And gosh, did we learn! WW showed us how he processed his work and we took some time to actually catch up with him, but it was amazing! His patience with us (you need A LOT of patience with us!) was great and Fendi helped out wherever he could. To Kamal, Aida and Razzak, practise ptactise practise, 3 hours to do black and white Kamal? He he he.. Tadi depan Wazari, 5 minit dah siap, balik terus semua lupa cam mana nak buat! Ha ha ha..

Anyways, after the class, we had lunch at Madam Kwan's and thereafter Aida and I did what every girls like :) Window shopping yeay! I've suddenly become such a girlie falling in love with one handbag after another and not mentioning shoes, oh shoes (I can imagine the horror on Ami's face when he reads this!), so Zeaty and I have made a date for some 'light' shopping tom evening + a gossip session to kill time, get ready girl!

To finish it all off, here's me wishing one of my oldest friends, Ms Sharifah Farah Syed Abdullah, a happy 32nd birthday today, the 22nd of June 2009, may all your dreams come true old friend! We'll celebrate our birthday's together when we are in Bandung nanti ok Sayang?

That's about it, have a great week ahead everyone!

Flat out!

We ran into a flat tyre this morning, tsk tsk.. So running a bit late for work and school for the kids, but it's good stuff for the kids, they get to see how it's done, they're pretty excited asking lots of questions. Go Papa Go!

Julia Gabriel Learning Centre

My sister Syida asked me to come to BVII today with the kids. There was a small carnival for the children and this was a session hosted by the JG Learning Centre.

Hady's having loads of fun joining in the activities, but Hariz needs a little bit of encouragement to join in though, he's still a pretty shy kid, taking his own time to come out of his shell.

Have to say, the teachers are great with kids, I need to learn more to communicate with my kids better!

The Andaman

We're finally here! And first impression is wow, super duper gorgeous. Am knackered and all I want to do is sleep now, bu will for sure blog about this more later.. Take care everyone!

I'm tired

I really am. As I write this, I suddenly feel an overwhelming sense of exhaustion. Hady's giving me a foot massage, thinks he pities his poor mum at the moment.

I'm looking forward to our family trip tom (HK Disneyland is going to have to wait for another time k babies, Mama has other plans for you), I actually chose a place close enough but far enough from civilization for us. Thanks Idhura (again) for handling all the arrangements for us, I owe you one babe (Shahril, your gf did all the work not you, so please do not take credit for it, and please handle my CRV with much TLC whilst I'm away :p).

I got back home near midnight last night (well, most nights lately), so today I really wasn't up to mark at a hunt held in KL this morning. Since it was a team effort,couldn't pull out and be selfish now could I, I did give it my all, but it wasn't good enough, but its ok, there are more hunts out there for us to participate in.

In the mean time, my girl friends and I are sorting out our girl friend getaway soon, which I'm sooooo looking forward to. It'll just be us 3 girls and the Daddy's will have to be on baby sitting duties to take care of the 6 children we have between the 3 of us.

Ami's a hands on Dad, so it shouldn't be a problem. Not worried, in fact I think they'd have a blast with me away, you know, no need to shower so early, can sit and watch tv all day long without Mama going do your home work do your homework! So I think they'll just do fine. Perhaps the little one will miss Mama's cuddles at night, but Mama will only be away for a bit, boleh ye Sayang?

I haven't packed a thing, don't feel like moving from this couch, but I better get on with it. Laundry needs to be hanged, Hady and Hariz's dinner needs to be prepared, oh Ami's long gone, fell asleep the moment we got home from the hunt and hasn't been up since, poor thing is exhausted too, and heh.. need to *remind* Hady and Hariz - homework homework homework kalau nak ikut Mama esok! Ha ha ha ha..

Oh, besides that, I officially signed on to become my cousins tutor/supervisor for her course elective this semester. She chose to do piano, so will be tutoring her on that, so I have to manage my time even more now. I'll be alright. Tired. But ok.

Gotta snap out of this now. Get up Linda! Stop being lazy, time waits for no one, so get a move on it!
