20-20-20 Rule

Just to share something I've learned from Ergonomics Courseware earlier today. Good practice for those who sit in front of the computer most of the time in a day ...

For every 20 minutes, take 20 seconds break and look 20 feet away to rest your eyes.

This basically revolves around the idea that you should not keep staring at your monitor for extended periods of time, whether you're working or playing games.

What's Ergonomics?
Ergonomics is the scientific discipline concerned with designing according to human needs, and the profession that applies theory, principles, data and methods to design in order to optimize human well-being and overall system performance. ^[2] The field is also called human engineering, and human factors.

Why not give it a try?

Catz: take only 20 seconds tau, not 20 minutes ... muhaha

Picnic@Taman Wetland Putrajaya Vol. 1

Baru balik from picnic dgn tribemates.

Why pilih Taman Wetland? Yang ni kena tanya organizer. Tapi lokasi memang sesuai utk picnic privacy macam ni. Ada Gazebo or Cocomo berbumbung besar yang hanya beberapa langkah ke tasik (kena jaga anak-anak senang nak sampai kat air tasik). And, dihadapannye ada lereng bukit berumput hijau dah bersih, (macam Salem High Country) sangat sesuai untuk photography perkahwinan or family potrait (ni pandangan photographer).

I'm the first one to arrive, at 9:00AM sharp, and as usual organizer sampai last sekali. Tak sangka pulak semua orang bawak food, so bila dah dikumpulkan, jadi macam2 food ada. Potluck lagi! Ada spaghetti, meehoon, kuih-muih, sandwiches ... boleh cover lunch sekali.

Bukan ada agenda pun, aktiviti santai, borak2 dan sesi photography, mmg seronok!


Tasik berhampiran, byk ikan rasanya, sbb ramai yang bawa joran kat jeti tu ... lain kali picnic boleh bawak joran sendiri


Tgh ready-ready untuk sesi bergambar, cuba suaikan si ibu dengan anak yang betul ... hahahaha


Qaseh mmg comel, tapi sebenarnye nak tunjuk betapa bertungkus lumusnye papaQaseh dan uncleWan kat background tu tgh tangkap gambar hehehe ... tu acara kuak kupu2 ke yang sampai sujud kat rumput tu kekekeke ...


zam zam ala kazam ... sejurus selepas gambar ni di ambil, tikar ni terbang sebentar ke arah tasik membawa penumpang2nye bersiar-siar ...


Junior Cameraman bersama dengan Art Director & crew2nya...


sesi menggendong anak masing2 sambil menikmati keindahan tasik dan ikan2 yang timbul ...


masing2 dengan kerenah anak-anak, oops yang baju pink tu single lagi, anak pinjaman je, sapa2 interested nak kenal yg baju pink tu boleh contact saya ... hehehe

Catz: lama tak gi picnic ...

Too Slow and I'm Furious

We went to see Fast and Furious 4 this evening. The title above got nothing to do with the movie itself. F&F4 was a great action movie yg buat TK drops his jaw for awhile especially the stunt at the beginning of the movie where Vin Diesel got to speed drive below a flaming tank. Awesome!

I paid for e-payment ticketing via the internet hope to speed up the process once we reached GSC Alamanda. The showtime was at 2:25pm (yup right after Friday prayer). So, we drove fast and TK furiously speed our way to Alamanda exactly like Fast and Furios. When we reached GSC, I looked for e-Payment/Reservation counter. Yup of course I found one, but with a sign "CLOSED, NEXT COUNTER PLEASE". Wut de hel? The only available counter was the one we need to que like everybody else, leaving me no choice but to que. As my turn reached the counter, I asked the girl, "Why e-Payment Counter is closed?", and with a smiley face she answered "Sorry Cik, tak cukup staff!". Wut?? It's too slow and I'm furious 'bout it, and if ya'all were there, you could see the dragon fire came out of my ears. Tak pasal2 that girl kena marah, and tak pasal2 we all missed the first 15 minutes of the movie ( I sure have to download this!).

Anyway, the movie was awesome. GSC Alamanda's seats were also awesome, designed for a big built like me hehe.

Catz: next movie please ...

Majlis For Mak

Every week Mak and her frens (persatuan wanita surirumah BSP) will have a weekly Majlis Yassin and this week Mak's frens decided to throw her a birthday celebration + Majlis bacaan yassin at our house.


Bacaan yassin followed by ceramah on The Meaning of Yassin by Ustaz (Oops forgot his name!) ...


... and followed by the event where Mak kena potong cake (in this case ... cakes) while her frens sang her the famous "Selamat Ulang Tahun" song.

It was kinda Majlis potluck. We(the host) only prepare pulut kuning + rendang + mee rebus while the others prepare something else. Tersangat byk makanan, sampai dunno which one to eat first ... meriah betul dorang berpesatuan. Wish I could join them, tapi kena jadi housewife dulu la ... *wink kat TK*.

Catz: teringat majlis potluck jaman dulu2 kat mmsc ...

Busy Weekend

Last weekend was one hell of a tiring weekend. Why so?

Saturday at dawn, ayam pun belum berkokok, dah kena gi hantar TK to work. Singgah breakfast (at 6am) kat Azhar Maju. The pic was taken while waiting for TK tumpang solat subuh kat surau Azhar Maju. I didnt know Azhar Maju ada surau all this while.

As soon as TK's working hours ended we headed our way to Kuantan. We made a few stop for lunch at McD and picked up my MIL, TK's bro and nephews. The main reason kena gi Kuantan pun coz kena hantar my MIL to TK's 2nd bro's house in Beserah.

We reached Kuantan few minutes passed waktu maghrib. Badan pun dah letih, but sempat jugak lah layan Konsert AF7, tu pun tak dapat full view since Astro kat rumah tu ada prob sket.


Sunday morning, we all dah gerak awal from rumah Abg Ngah sbb nak reach KL before dusk. On the way back, singgah kat Malay Town, Cultural Town Putra Square Kuantan to visit Abg Ngah's booth kat situ. Sempat la dengar a few demo pasal Hai-O. At noon bertolak balik KL ...


TK dah janji with his nephews, kalau cuaca ok dan tak hujan, boleh singgah Hutan Lipur Lentang. Doa budak2 tu agaknye, dalam seharian hujan kat Kuantan, sampai je dekat dgn Hutan Lipur, panas terik. Promise is a promise, so since I'm driving masa tu, terus je turn masuk kawasan Hutan Lipur. Excited la budak2 tu nampak air sungai. Kalau tak ramai orang, nak jugak ku join sama, tapi weekend camni sure pack, segan pulak nak sexy mexy dalam air tu hehehe. The pic above - TK and his nephew.


I promised mom a birthday dinner at Tupai2 that night. That's the main reason why we have to reach KL before dusk. I called Tupai2 earlier nak buat booking, but they said Ahad malam Isnin tak pack, boleh walk in aje. Well, boleh tahan jugak ramainye malam tu. Nasib baik we all datang awal sikit, so ada table dekat dekat meja buffet & dessert.


We all satu family mmg suka steamboat and since Tupai2 ada steamboat buffet yang halal at only RM28 nett per pax so selalulah we all datang sini. Puas hati dapat treat the whole family for Mak's birthday dinner. Tahun ni Mak dah 62 yrs old, katanye still young at heart. Semoga Mak sihat selalu, dipanjangkan umur dan dimurahkan rezeki.

So that's why last weekend busy coz penuh dengan activity travel, visits, mandi sungai and makan-makan.


Catz: malam tu we all kepenatan, sure dengkor baik punyer wakakaka ...
