Ribbon Up...

Please pardon me, I know I've abandoned my Blog for such a long period. SORRY!! I've been facing some personal problems which really have affected my entire mood to blog, to cook & etc. Please don't ask me what had happened to me but don't worry as I've got back to my normal self by now and things also started to change drastically. I'm now a happy gal again~lol! Let's forget the unhappy moment which had passed and looking forward for a better tomorrow :)

I truly believe that we keep on learning from our experience. No doubt that we learned as we grown older. We become wiser as we aged. For the past 3 yrs, I've learned a lot about life. Life is not always on the sweet side, sometimes we happened to meet with something bitter unexpectedly and we cannot take it because we are not prepared for it at all and that's life. For the very first time tasting something bitter, we sure cannot stand it right?? but, after sometime I have get use to it :)

Sometime when I think back, actually I was so lucky as I'm not alone and I've friends and my family there who always support me and accompany me. Thank you!!

I must admit that I got one bad habit that I should kick off. Umm, it's not that only one bad habit I've, actually I got dozen of it ~lol I don't wanna talk about the bad habits now. Let me just say out one here. I love to buy stuff that's look cute without think if it's suitable for me or if I'm gonna to use it later. Just like when I saw these ribbon hairclips when I went to the market yesterday, I can't resist and bought it. The first thing came to my mind is, my princess will sure like it... (an excuse for myself.. teehee!!) Oh well, why bought 4 since I only have 2 princess?? At first I only choose one red floral motive and the pink polkadots one but when I saw the blue one, I thought it look nice as well ... um, and I can use it too (another excuse.. :)) ) After that I saw the pink floral motive one quite nice and end up bought 4 of it which cost me RM20. One hairclip is RM5. I think this is how my money keep on disappear from my wallet ...hahaha!!! Most girls weakness I think.. The only way I can really save up my money is, staying at home and don't go anywhere. Here is the pictures of the hairclip I bought... :)

Kawaii right??

This red color floral motive ribbon clip is for me...I don't think I'm still cute enough for the pink color one >.<

My elder daughter she said she want this pink color one .. ^^

Can use it for a ponytail or hairbun... what do u all think?? Is it worth RM5??

P/S: I must start to save more $$$, wish to get myself a new laptop and camera...

My New Wallet

Yay,... I got myself a new wallet when I go to Alor Star Mall for lunch yesterday. I've been looking for a perfect wallet lately. Actually, I saw some nice one when I visit Hatyai last week but it's too pricey. Stuff in Hatyai now are not that cheap anymore. The wallet I saw cost 2800 baht. It's around RM280+ and for me, it's very expensive. I can use the money to buy myself a nice handbag or some nice dressed already. So, I give up and just forget it. Luckily, I didn't buy the wallet I saw in Hatyai the other day. If not, I will surely regret when I saw the wallet I bought now.

Here is the POLO leather wallet I got for myself for only RM39.60 after big DISCOUNT - cheap or not???? My wallet look sexy right?? and it's in my favourite BLACK colour.

I like it have few compartment inside, easier for me to sort out my things in it. And it's really soft to touch. I can smell it's leather smell, comfirm it's not PVC one...hehe!!

POLO Logo and brand on top of the wallet. Very nice and good quality wallet.

I love the zip colour in bronze, look very elegant. Over all it's one of my BEST purchase in year 2010. Worth the price and all. I will show you my old Bonia wallet in my next post.

Have a nice day!!

Lunch At Alor Star Mall - Wah Tua Guan

Today I didn't cook. I spent my time to do some housework instead. I decided to bring my mother and my 3 kids to Alor Star Mall for some grocery shopping and have our lunch there. My 3 kids, the love to go shopping very much. We prefer window shopping more as I won't simply buy things that I don't really need. Wah Tua Guan Restaurant are quite famous with those who stay in Alor Star. The main restaurant are actually located near Jalan Putra and the one in Alor Star Mall is actually it's branch. I love the environment and the food they selling there. The price are reasonable too.

My son love the fried drumstick sold there.

My youngest daughter and my mum...

My elder daughter, she have fishballs cooked in tomato sauce.

Stop eating to pose for picture...lol ~

爸, 我很想念您!!! 你永远在我心里....我爱您!!!!

Pa, I regret that I don't take it serious when you told me you don't have appetite to eat. All I think is, maybe it's the weather too warm and pa, you don't have the appetite. All the while, you are a healthy man. You are the man that protect me. When I have problems you are always there for me. You helped me in anyway. Life without you will not be the same again. I miss arguing with you over small things. We argue on everything and anything. We just have different opinion and point of view. Pa, you know.... the more we argue each time, the better relationship we have. I miss your laughter, your stories and everything. Especially when I see your favourite sofa in my living room. The sofa that you will always sit there to watch TV , talk to me and end up we arguing with each other. I MISS YOU, PAPA, really missed u so so much!!!

You never complain of any discomfort or pain. You never tell us you are sick and never want to see a DR. Pa, you will always in the bottom of my heart, forever and ever. I'm going to celebrate the Father's Day without my PAPA for the first time this year. Pa, I wish you "Happy Father's Day!!" Please rest in PEACE, we are all doing fine here. Don't worry, ok!

My dear friends, my father passed away on 21th May 2010. Please pray for him!!

I'm Still Alive...!

I think some of you who follows my blog would wonder what I have been up to lately... Why I stopped update my blog for such a long time. I'm doing fine here friends and even put on weight, eating too much and now on diet. Each time when I try to upload pictures or leaving comments on my friend blog, I just have to wait so long to wait them upload it. Well, this is the internet service I'm using now - WIMAX. It kills all my moods to update my blog. No matter how many calls I made to complain about their connection problems the matter seems like never solved and I have get sick of this. I sometimes wake up in the morning just to find that there is no internet connection at my house for that day or either no stable connection without prior notice. How can we have a company that's so irresponsible to their customers??? What if we have some important mails to reply or important stuff to online for that particular day which will cause a big lost if we can't online, something that's very urgent to get online?? Who are going to bear the lost??? My contract with WIMAX is 2 yrs and will end on Nov this year, we have to pay an amount of money if we terminate it before the contract ends. I just can't wait to terminate my service with them...cannot tahan already!!

To WIMAX : If you don't want to lost more customers, please upgrade your internet service!!

One month staying in Hanoi. I got all my battery charged and back to Malaysia full of energy before I starts to work fulltime again...hahaha!! When I was in Hanoi with my kids to visit my hubby, I don't need to do any housework except put all the dirty clothes in the washing machine. Don't have to wake up early and do anything at all. Everyday we just got to try out nice Vietnamese food and we were always invited to some of my hubby's colleage and friends house for dinner. One month, everyday I just eat and sleep, eat and sleep..... and, to my horror when I weight myself only found that I have put on weight .... !!!! 54kg arh... !! I've put on 5 kg ...crazy!!

I was 49kg before I left for Hanoi and now what scared me is, most of my pants cannot be buttoned and I have so big sparetyre around my waist...no more body hugging clothes for me *sob** I have to wear a size bigger now and just buy the loose blouse or shirt to cover my sparetyre. I was surprised that some of my friends don't even notice that.. They don't know I have gain so much weight...hahaha!!! Chinese New Year is approaching and how can I start my diet now??? Not possible right? How ah?? Eat first, and let me become fat piggy first and then only I starts diet or I must start it right now??? ......... NIGHTMARE...NIGHTMARE !!!! help me!

Watch Out !!! I'm back....

Dearest friends who notice my dissappearance or who don't even notice my dissappearance ...hehe! I'm BACK !! With lots more stories to share and lots more pictures to show. Please accept my biggest appologies before I starts on anything. Too much things happened, don't worry... I shall said it's good thing not the bad one okay...haha! The main reason I stopped blogging for so long is since I sign up the WiMax service. The connection real sucks till I was at first angry and at last lazy to blog. I takes me like forever to upload my pics into the photobucket, the connection is just too slow. Other thing is, I was so so busy travelling here and there. Preparing all the stuff for my kids, from tuition to school and the most is loads of housework waiting for me to do. I always end up so tired and spent my freetime facebooking and play games in FB. To my friends here, I'm sorry if you really come to my blog here and feels so boring, no updates from me....sorry ya!! I will soon update my blog more interesting stuff and I wish all of you a wonderful weekend...!!

Have a nice day!!

Breakfast in Hanoi - Pho Ga

7 As Surprised !!

Ya, he surprised me with UPSR - 7A's result. It never came into my mind that my son can score straight A in his exam because he is too weak in his Chinese papers. I couldn't believe it when his teacher called and informed me this morning. He always relaxing at home and never do his revision at all, not even on the week of UPSR exam. He watch dramas and television. It has been a bit tough for him when he was transfer from the second class to the first class this year. He got to work harder to catch up with all the best students in his class. I never force or push him in his studies. I don't want my son to have much pressure in his studies. But his take it easy and no rush attitude in doing things really worried me.

Today apart from the big surprise, he prove to me that he can make it. Yeah!! I want to tell him, Son..mommy is really proud of you!!

p/s: To all the parents out there, always feels proud of our kids no matter what. Every kid are unique and special in their own way, be it in education or talent!!

Gosh...I Put On Weight!!

Did you read my post titled "My New Toy"?? Yep, I bought a breadmaker recently and started my bread making adventures. I can say that, I got addicted to bread making and baked buns or bread almost every single day for the first 2 weeks I got the new toy. Glad to tell that, I've improved a lot, now I manage to bake buns or bread like the one sold in the bakery or maybe tastes better. Ehmm, emm... lol~~~ I must says that it's the ingredients I use - fresh & healthy. Where can you get those bread if not baking one yourself right? lame*

While enjoying baking all those lovely buns..I've forget to WATCH OUT my figure. Oh my GOD!! I put on 2KG.... I was unaware of my weight until one day, I tried so hard to button my hot pants..hahaha!!! I wonder is the jeans turn smaller after I wash them, (you know..I always buy cheap hot pants from market,..so it happened when after first wash the pants colour came off or become 1 or 2 inch smaller). I weight myself and to my horror... I put on weight. I think it's because I've eat too much high calorie -bread and buns lately. I use the best brand butter, milk, honey etc.. etc.. to bake my bread. Huh..!!! that's the reason, too healthy and too much calorie..!!!! The spare-tyre around my waist starts to shows..., DIE !! DIE!!! ..

I can't control myself for not baking any breads, so how ah?? Don't ask me not to eat and just bake it ~ hahaaa!!! Mana boleh tahan!! My life will be total boring if I don't cook or bake.

Friends, please tell me what to do if I'm not in the kitchen cooking or baking??? What you all do to fills up your free time???

HERE IS MY EVIL CREATIONS. . . hahaha!!!

Wholegrain Raisins Toast (healthy & yummy)

Peanut Paste Buns (Soft buns with sweet fillings)
Red Bean Swirl Buns (My favourite)
Cheese Topping Buns (Soft & fluffy with cheese on top)

Sausage Buns (My kid's first choice)

Tell me which of the above are your favourite??? How to keep fit...teach me!!

p/s: Just in case you want to put on weight...opps!! no no ... OR I shall said, just in case you like the buns I bake, go and get the RECIPE from my cooking blog.
