Warded - HPAN Day 3

She's feeling better today. No tantrum ... smiling ... laughing ... playing ... until it's time for nebulizer again. *sigh*

Moments before the nurse entered the room
for a scheduled neb ... ceria je ...

Catz: think I should also take the Neb, batuk non stop & hard to breath ...

Warded - HPAN Day 2

Neb for every six hours ... they even woke her up at 3AM in the morning for the nebulizer. Khalisya dah phobia tgk uniform nurse.

She hate that thing very much!!!

Catz: Ibu is getting lesser and lesser sleeps ... sakit belakang wo tido atas a recliner ...

Warded - HPAN Day 1

Dah seminggu Khalisya demam and selsema tak baik-baik. Tido malam pun terganggu, tak nak makan & susu. This morning bawak jumpa Paed di HPAN, doc kata kena tahan since weezing dah kuat sgt.

Poor Khalisya ...

Baru dapat tido lepas kena nebulizer ....

Catz: sekali bagi nebulizer macam belut meronta ... huhu

My Little Princess Turns Two

The day my little princes turns TWO is also the day she catch my cold and got sick. This year takde celebration since everybody at home tak berapa sihat.

 

 Catz: selsema import from London ...

Read

I was pretty late for work this morning and I asked Khalisya not to kacau Ibu, sit tight and read her book (her book = any magazine).

To my surprise, from the moment I entered the bathroom, sampai la siap kemas bilik, pakai baju and ready for work. All she did was .... read her book.

Gigih betul anak ibu baca magazine terbalik ... hehe

Catz: asyik lambat je now nih ... hehe

Mee Udang at Cafe Berisi@Medan MARA

I had Berisi Cafe's mee udang for lunch today. I ate alone since my colleague was fasting. The cafe boss stopped at my table and said "Selalu datang sini makan mee udang kan?". I gave him a smile with my mouth full of mee udang and nodded. I wanted to say that "I love your mee udang", but by the time I finished swallowing the food, he walked away.

I've tried the mee udang in May, and I've been returning for it since. I've took along some of my colleagues for the taste of it and all of them said ... memang sedap. Even though the prawns are small/medium in size, the taste is still good.

looks mouthwatering .... sedap pulak tu!

Catz: this entry was made during a review session ... hehehe

Road Trip

I left home early this morning and ...

Khalisya was still asleep.

My appointment with the Editor was at 7:00am @McDonald, Equine Park, but I arrived 10 minutes early due to the smooth traffic. Then, tapau some breakfast and head off to the office for my colleague, KC.

My journey continued at 9:30am when we drove off to SMSS, Bandar Tun Razak. The meeting was so brief ... less than five minutes. Then, we took off for a meeting at McDonald, Kota Damansara. We arrived just in time.

The next meeting was in Peransang Templer Golf Club. As KC parked her M2 at DYMM Sultan's parking space, we worked our way to find the grand ballroom where "F1 in Schools Technology Challenge" event took place.

Next stop was KFC, Batang Kali. We managed to stop for some durians kat tepi jalan, tersangatlah banyak dijual along the road. Thought of tapauing some but since KC's M2 is totally brand new, we didn't want to spoil the 'bau kedai' smell.

 

KC made a sudden turn to the parking site, when we saw the spectacular view of the Batu Dam (Empangan Batu, Sungai Tua). And then we headed off to our client's office at Jalan Raja Laut to submit all the documents collected today.


We reached the office by 5:00pm and I need to run some errands before I went home.

I reached home somewhere around 8:00pm and ...

Khalisya was already asleep.

So to Khalisya, Ibu has been away to work from last night (when she fell asleep) till tomorrow morning (when she wake up).

Aiseh, macam pergi outstation je ..... :D


Catz: anyway, thanks for the ride KC ...

Months Ago ...

Seems like ages ago since I posted my last entry. I'm a bit busy running errands and chasing my project dateline lately that I abandon my blog aside. Wonder kalau still ada yang masih sudi membaca :)

I'll try my best to update more after this ...


Catz: am still at the office waiting for my editor huhu

Salam Aidilfitri 2011

Salam Aidilfitri untuk rakan-rakan dan sanak saudara. Mohon maaf zahir dan batin. Semoga raya tahun ini lebih bermakna dari tahun-tahun yang lepas.

And also, selamat menyambut hari merdeka ke 54. 

Catz: Raya day 2 @Temerloh

Ramadhan Mubarak

Mungkin sudah agak lambat nak wish kawan-kawan Ramadhan al-Mubarak. Mohon maaf segala khilaf dan salah. Semoga Ramadhan kali ini membawa seribu makna buat semua.

Ramadhan tahun ini, banyak betul dugaan utk kami sekeluarga. Alhamdulillah semua dugaan yang datang kami hadapi dengan redha. Kesihatan Khalisya tidak berapa memberansangkan beberapa minggu ni, tapi alhamdulillah kesihatan ayah Khalisya sudah semakin pulih, tiada lagi side effects teruk dari interferon injections dan tempoh rawatan semakin hampir kepada minggu-minggu akhir.

Sejak beberapa hari ini, Khalisya cukup banyak merengek dan menangis, tak tentu biji butir. Mungkin masih terkejut dengan accident kecil tempoh hari, or mungkin diarrheanya belum pulih 100%. Tidur malamnya yang selalu lena sekarang asyik terganggu. Pipinya yang embam sudah cengkung ... perutnya yang boroi pun dah tak kelihatan seboroi biasa ... banyak betul susutnya.

Semoga hari-hari yang bakal tiba dapat kami tempuh dengan tenang Insya-Allah. Amin.


Catz: malah update blog dah semakin menjadi-jadi ...

Potluck Breakfast

Gambar Hiasan

This morning we gathered for Putra Terrace potluck breakfast and we had many yummy dishes to choose from. I've met some new faces that I've never seen before (of course Mak knows who they are). Most of my neighbors know my parents and some of them didn't event know that I'm exist hehe.

Many of us are excited when there is potluck. I personally love potluck parties mainly for the bonding and food. Have you ever wonder what is the origin of the word 'potluck'? According to wiki, a potluck is a gathering of people where each person or group of people contributes a dish of food to be shared among the group.

As English words go, “potluck” is actually pretty straightforward.  It’s simply a combination of “pot,” in the sense of “cooking pot,” and “luck,” in the standard sense of “chance or fortune.”  When “potluck” first came into use in English in the late 16th century, it carried the sense of “whatever is available to eat” (i.e., already cooked in the pot), specifically in the context of a guest invited to dine on the spur of the moment, without special preparations having been made.  Early on, the form “to take potluck” became popular (“I accepted Mr Leeke’s invitation to take pot-luck with him and returned to Page’s in the evening,” 1810), a usage still heard today.  By the 20th century, “to take potluck” had acquired a more general sense of “to take what comes” or “to take one’s chances” in nearly any context (“Don’t be content to take ‘pot-luck’ on the future,” 1943).

Read more at The Word Detective.

Right here in our office, at least once a year we had potlucks. Usually these potlucks were not organized by the company and normally the committees are volunteers among the staffs.I have some entries about potlucks parties with the office mates.

Catz: So this year ada potluck tak before raya?

Khalisya Oh Khalisya

Tak boleh nak lelap pulak mata ni. Khalisya baru je lelap, setelah berhempas pulas menangis teresak-esak. Ayah pujuk tak nak, Ibu pujuk pun tak nak, last last sekali Atuk yang tidurkan. Mata dah lelap pun masih ada saki baki sedu sedan menangis tadi.

Khalisya dah pun nak dekat 1 tahun 6 bulan, tapi masih belum berjalan lagi. Kalau berjalan meniti dari meja ke meja dia boleh la, berdiri sendiri pun boleh dah, cuma nak berjalan rasanya dia masih belum confident. Kalau ke class physio tu, 35 minit pertama je dia ok, the rest of 1.5 hours tu sure dia nangis lah, lagi-lagi kalau doc suruh berjalan.

Apa yang Khalisya pandai so far?

• Main piano (Lagu ciptaan Khalisya sendiri)
• Menari (Mengikut rentak lagu ciptaannya)
• Membebel (Bahasa Jerman)
• Berkawan (Mostly kena tarik rambut oleh Khalisya)
• Sebut "Abu" or "Buyeh" means Ibu, "Ayah", Ata means "Atuk", "boa" means ball and "Adda" means susu (that's about it kot, yg lain tu tak tentu bijik butir sebutannya)
• Panjat tangga (Menuju Puncak!)
• Tolong kemas kain (Sepahkan ada la ...)
• Guna remote tv (Untuk ketuk lantai)
• Main bola (Selalu baling ke belakang)
• Baca paper or majalah (mostly end up koyak rabak)
• Pointing to herself and sebut Icha (Kalau tanya nenek mana pun dia akan point diri sendiri)
• Switch on and off lampu

Huh lenguh menaip ... banyak lagi tu yang tak termasuk dalam senarai ...

 Ada similarity tak both photo ni?

 Antara latest photo taken from her aunty's berry hitam. Terserlah gigi kapaknya itu. Susut sikit anak ibu ni, mana taknye, lasak kemain, makan tak nak lak tu.

Catz: Dududui tido la Khalisya ...

Free Broadband Ke?

Rasanya dah lama tak dapat bill streamyx. Now ni nak bayar pun dah tak tau bill nya berapa. Bila check kat tmonline.com.my ada la sedikit pelik .... zero balance since March. So tadi call lah customer care, diorang cakap, memang bil cik kosong, last payment was in February. What?

Memang sah streamyx nak bagi pakai free kot.

Catz: Titiba datang bill 3 bulan sekaligus, naya je ...

A Little Project of Mine

I've been meaning to start Khalisya's photo booking project for a while now. I have with me lots and lots of Khalisya's pictures that I kept safely in my multiple external hard disks.

Photobooking is not a new thing anymore since there are a lot of online services that offer the services. I chose photobook.com.my for Khalisya's First Year Photobook since they're offering a nice deal of discounts for beginners like me. I bought a RM99 voucher for 40 pages of 11 x 8.5 imagewrap photobook. That is an awesome price since the normal price elsewhere would be between RM200 - 300. The best thing about this voucher is it valid until December 2015 (so I have less than 4 years to figure out how I am supposed to finish up this little project of mine .... LOL!!)

I also been wanting to start on a new digital scrapbooking hobby and this little project of mine seems like a good way to start, just hope I do have the time for this new hobby :)

sneak preview ... ntah bila bila la nak siap!

Catz: scrapbooking konon ... heh heh

Eat Big - Part 2

Our big makan-makan continues! Selalunya Friday memang ada je la juadah yang dibawa oleh rakan-rakan untuk dikongsi bersama. Kadang-kadang mmg ada occassion tertentu, kadang2 takde occassion pun ... saja suka suki. So yesterday, ada orang belanja breakfast lagi. So we all ada 2 option untuk breakfast, nasi dagang or nasi berlauk, kuih koci and kek pun ada. Occassionnya? Sempena birthday KS jugak kot.

Belah petang pun ada makan-makan gak, tapi saya tak dapat nak join sbb Khalisya ada physio appointment. Dengarnya ada RV lagi ... hmm melepas laaaaa ....

Boleh tahan gak nasi dagang akak nih ... 

Ni la bilik paling havoc, bising, selalu org sebelah ketuk dinding, and yang paling ramai tetamu bertandang ... hehehe

Catz: melepas la RV huhu ... Happy Birthday K.Shikeen

Eat Big - Part 1

Tengahari tadi our Birthday Gurl, Pn Shikeen Alias a.k.a Shopping_Mama telah belanja almost all the tribemates makan-makan di Red Wok, Bandar Baru Bangi. Bukan senang dapat berkumpul secara tak formal sebegini ramai untuk menjamu selera, orang belanja pulak tu. Menu yang dipilih amat sedap sehingga licin menjilat jari, even Hong Kong kailan with salted fish yang lambat sampai tu pun licin dijadikan dessert.

Balik from Red Wok, kami dikejutkan dengan satu lagi makan-makan, Pizza farewell party untuk salah seorang Programmer kami yang nak resign, dengor nya dapat better offer di stesen tv yg amat besau. So we all makan-makan lagi walaupun perut dah sarat kekenyangan.

Dengar-dengarnya esok ada makan-makan lagi ... hehehe ... tungguuuuuu .... Part 2

Ramai juga yang join ...

Ikan Siakap with Mango Salad - I likeeee

Catz: kekonon semua nak diet, cer citer cer citer ... cemana nak diet kalau asik makan jek?!

Red Velvet

We've been hearing about RV ni for quite sometimes. My colleague, KC, selalu cerita tentang rasanya yang enak dan unik. So di atas permintaan rakan-rakan seperjuangan, we all order la RV sebijik from KC's friend yang pakar tentang RV.

Memang sedap rasanya, seindah namanya 

To those yang teringin nak rasa, boleh la buat tempahan dengan http://cupcakekasih.blogspot.com/.




Catz: lain kali kena order lagi

Balik Kampung Feb 2011 - Day 3

Early Sunday morning dah bangun packing-packing untuk balik KL. Takut nak bertolak lambat sebab highway for sure akan jam. Before pulang we all ke Peramu untuk breakfast kat satu kedai ni yang aduhai banyaknya food. Since dah banyak food yang dijual, so kena lah makan banyak jenis food jugak kan ...

Usai breakfast, we all teruskan perjalanan pulang. And seperti yang dijangka, ada beberapa tempat yang jammed especially bila dah hampir dengan Plaza Toll. Tiba-tiba sport car we all tu buat hal pulak, bila naik bukit, temperature sama sama naik jugak. So nak tak nak, aircond asyik kena off je la, bagi laluan untuk water pump tu kurangkan kerja untuk mengepam ketika naik bukit. Nasib baik Khalisya tak meragam, she behaved all the way, sampai la kat umah. The trip from Kuantan yang sepatutnya ambil masa around 2.5 hours tu dah jadi 6 hours sebab jammed. We all bertolak around 10:30am and arrived in Bangi around 4.00pm.

Baik betul anak ibu ni, main sorang-sorang and then tidur je along the way. So tak terasa la stress walaupun jammed teruk.

Ni orang dok sebuk jammed, dia dok sebuk merempit. Takde pulak highway troopers yang kejor.


Catz: bila la lagi nak gi bercuti ...

Balik Kampung Feb 2011 - Day 2

Second day, pagi-pagi lagi Khalisya dah bangun siap-siap nak pegi wedding cousinnya Khairul Ain. Before ke wedding location, we all pekena breakfast lempeng kelapa ... pergh! walaupun simple aje dishnya tapi ... ada Ummph! Khalisya pun boleh habis suku keping ... Encik Suami tak usah cerita la, berkeping keping lempeng habis hehe. 

After the wedding, we all relax-relax minum petang kuih muih dan sata yang dibeli di Peramu. Selalunya saya tak gemar sangat sata, tapi yang ni sedap la pulak dan tak meloyakan tekak. Selesai minum, we all gerak ke Beserah Beach, jamu-jamu mata and rehat-rehatkan minda.

 Look how happy she was ... this amoi lealy syiok balik kg wooo. Bak kata both of the Acus, "Balik Kampong No Stless Woo".

This is my niece Khairul Ain and her hubby, semoga bahgia ke anak cucu. Err kalau U guys ada cucu, we all lak ada cicit la hehe. Err now all our cucus (I think we all have more than 10 cucus now) called us Tok Su and Wan Su, esok-esok ada cicit ... mau di panggey apa ya?

This is the first time Khalisya pegi beach. Encik Suami beriya nak introduce the beach and the sea to Khalisya. Khalisya was stunned bila kakinya dilanggar ombak ... sampai meleleh air liur tengok betapa banyaknya air laut, selalunya kolam dalam besen yang dia biasa berendam tu kecik je and air tak banyak.

She's so happy dapat main ombak. Selalunya kalau suruh berdiri, sesaat je dia dah nak duduk. This time around tak nak duduk-duduk sambil kakinya kuis kuis pasir pantai.

Bukan Khalisya je yang seronok. We all pun seronok jalan-jalan kat beach. Tu tiga orang at the bottom corner ... my nieces and SIL tengah investigate belangkas yang terdampar di tepi pantai.

Khalisya masih berdiri tak beralih-alih, so bila we all nak bergambar kena la pegi tempat dia berdiri. Err tu apasal pulak pegi pantai pakai baju kurung tuuuuuuu????

Catz: swonoknya bercuti ...

Balik Kampung Feb 2011 - Day 1

Dah lama tak ke Kuantan. Since my MIL dah berada di Kajang, so trip ke Kuantan tu hanya akan berlaku sekiranya ada kenduri kendara atau event tertentu aje. This week we all ke Kuantan untuk wedding our niece ... Khairul Ain.

Khalisya pun dah lama tak jalan jauh. The last time we all balik Kuantan, Khalisya belum pandai mengesot & tak berapa lasak. Now ni ... alahai lenguh ibu melayan dalam kereta ... memanjang, meniarap, mengesot, menonggeng ... semua aksi ada lah! cuma jalan je belum.

bukan boleh duduk diam ... tgk tu mana ada orang duduk dalam car seat mengadap belakang ... hehehehe

eppy je sebab dapat alan alan (jalan-jalan)

 Khalisya dengan Mak Andak & Acu nya ...

Catz: syok gak balik kg ....

2011 First Entry

Dah lama rasanya tak update. Dah banyak offline entry berkepuk dalam external hdisk, nak post pun dah rasa macam out dated since kebanyakkannya cerita-cerita december 2010. Azam baru sebagai blogger ... nak rajin-rajinkan jari jemari ni mengupdate blog ni selalu seperti suatu ketika dulu (nampaknya kena cari camera baru la untukk menggantikan camera cap ayam yang dah tak berapa nak perform ni). Azam baru sebagai ibu ... nak penuhkan semua milestone yang Khalisya tertinggal buat masa ini and kalau ada rezeki tambah lagi ahli keluarga hehe. Hmm banyak lagi azam yang ditanam untuk tahun ni, sampai tak larat nak list kan dalam entry kali ni. Hopefully semua azam dan harapan untuk tahun ini akan dipermudahkan, dirahmati dan diberkati Allah insya-Allah.

Bersama Encik Suami di Annual Dinner MMSC Group

2010 MMSC Group Annual Dinner @ Palace of the Golden Horses
