Dont know why but cant sleep since last nite. Sekejap pasang aircond, sekejap tutup aircond, sekejap on kipas pastu tutup kipas and yet tetap tak boleh tido. Dari tutup lampu pastu bukak lampu ei..stress akak. Line internet dah la slow giler jadi tak dapat la nak download gambar. Habis dah bilik tu I kemas sampai tak tahu nak buat apa lagi nasib baik juga sempat terlelap about 1 hour. Kul 2.30 pagi terjaga balik sampai le la ni. Pagi-pagi memang sunyi kan....sampai neighbour punya alarm clock pun I dengar...dalam hati i kata eh..cepat jugak dorang ni nak bangun....kul 5 pagi gitu alarm clock jiran dah berbunyi. Bila orang start mengaji je kat surau depan tu sunny boy pun terus bangun. Bagus budak itu...bila balik rumah atok mak dia je tak pernah miss sembahyang 5 waktu kat surau tu. Pepagi haban dia dah ke surau for subuh.
Ni si baby dah bangun...punya la dia excited sebab si Mai nak balik....kul 6 dia dah bangun pastu terus tanya "mummy, kak mai coming back today?". Hmmmm bapak dia pun dia tak miss macam si ah mai tu.
Semalam lepas masak kan kari ikan ngan sayur peria goreng untuk mak sempat jugak pergi KLCC seround bawak budak-budak tengok wayang cerita IceAge3. Lepas tengok wayang kita pun lunch kat Food Court makan Wantan Mee pastu pusing-pusing keluar masuk kedai and terus ke Ampang Point sebab my sista mintak tolong belikan kasut untuk dia. Tak puas hati minah tu...nak juga kasut macam kakak dia. So I pun pergi la Ampang Point, belum sempat beli kasut minah tu..eh... ..eh...Datin Permaisuri talipon...tak puas hati tu ajak gi minuh teh kat Kopitiam kat GE Mall. Sib baik dekat je...so cepat-cepat beli kasut my sista and terus ke GE. Tapi masa beli kasut tu hangin la jugak sebab I baru beli untuk I ari jumaat lepas takde discount pun pastu bila i beli untuk dia semalam eh..eh... ada 50% diskaun....ee mana aci ek......aa tu la rezki namanya kan.
Masa kat GE Mall tu sempat lagi singgah Aussino ada sale gitu...suke akak....apa lagi terjebak la kat situ...tapi takpe itu barang untuk rumah and dah memang patut beli pun untuk gantikan yang lama....yang ada kat umah tu pun dah uzur benar. Lepas tu I ada beli suji cake and some cookies (yang macam biskut raya tu)kat stall depan Cold Storage tu...gembira akak...sedap kuih-kuih dia, kira nya boleh beli lagi la next time. Suji cake dia cun...harus korang cuba. Sampai rumah cukup time maghrib so sempat la berjemaah kat surau for maghrib and isya' ngan budak-budak ni.
Ha tu je la cerita hari ni. Sorry tak kuasa nak download gambar sebab makan tahun nak download satu.

Ayah in Memories ( 28JUN2009)
If my Ayah is still alive, he would be 65 today. God knows how much I miss my father. Although he left us almost 6 years ago on Monday August 4th 2003 but the memories are still fresh in my mind and it seems only yesterday. Ayah, you are such a great father and I will always love you. I always tell him that I want to marry someone like him. He is a go getter, never takes no for an answer, very confident of himself, very sincere, ever so helpful, never cheat or take advantage of people, a caring father and loves his children with all his heart. I am truly blessed to have him as my father. Whatever I wish for, ayah you sure will get it for me.
On the day he died, I really wanted to see him as I have not seen him for almost 5 months but with my condition that time I was really hoping that he will turn up at my cousin's wedding. When I saw my step mother and ayah wasnt there my heart sank. Cik Kiah said ayah kirimsalam and he wasnt feeling very well that's why he couldnt come to the wedding. Menggelitik hati ni nak pergi tengok ayah masa tu tapi apakan daya....dalam hati I kata insyaallah soon. One more month to go je...pastu nak pergi tengok ayah coz my due date will be 1st week of September . During that time it was only the sms that keep us in touch.
Ayah hantar message suruh balik and bawak kan dia epal hijau on his birthday but what can I do...cuma hantar sms je kata tak boleh nak travel and insyaallah I will see him the moment I can do so.
Sebulan sebelum ayah meninggal, ayah ada talipon and he wanted to come and stay with me. Ayah teringin nak berubat kat Ulu Kelang and dia kata dia kena pergi berurut hari-hari at least 6 hari seminggu and since we all 6 beradik dia suruh kita ambil turn bawak dia pergi hari-hari. I call my other siblings tanya macammana nak buat ngan request ayah ni tapi semua orang kata payah la. Masa tu rasa macam nak meraung I sebabnya true I was on leave but yet not able to take him for his treatment. So I told ayah that he can come and stay with me and I can arrange for taxi to take him to Ulu Kelang everyday but my stepmother has to come and stay with me too. Yelah ayah dah paralyse so kena ada someone to carry him in and out of the car. If not for my pregnancy at that time..I dont have to depend on anybody but circumstances doesnt permit. Tak tau la pulak rupanya masa tu ayah tengah tak bercakap dengan Cik Kiah jadi after my suggestion tu dia terus merajuk. I pun serba salah but we continue to sms each other still. Tu yang I look forward to seeing him at the wedding.
Lepas kenduri kahwin tu semua orang dah kepenatan almaklumlah masak sendiri so everyone was so lepak. Bila Ucu talipon dari kampung kata suruh balik and bawak ayah pergi hospital, my heart says "oh no....please wait for me ayah". My sister was with me then and I cakap kat dia...tak kira malam ni I nak balik jugak apa nak jadi pun jadi lah tapi dia kata dia mengantuk and dah letih sangat so I called my brother suruh dia bawak we all ni balik. Biasalah budak-budak muda ni kan....dari pukul 10.30 malam I call pukul 12.15 pagi baru dia sampai....masa tu hati I dah gelabah. I talipon mak I....mak kata takpelah besok je la balik tak payah nak pergi malam-malam ni....tapi I cakap ngan my brother and sister...tak kira nak balik skarang jugak...kalu mak tak nak balik dulu takpe dia boleh balik besok. We received another call saying ayah dah masuk ICU. Sampai je kat hospital and tak lama lepas tu doktor pun keluar and said that ayah dah takde lagi. Berlari I masuk bilik ICU tu dan cium ayah dan peluk ayah and masa tu masih panas lagi badan ayah. Ya Allah ayah dah takde...tak sempat kali ni ayah nak tengok cucu yang masih lagi dalam perut I ni. Ayah belum sempat lagi saya nak membalas jasa-jasa ayah...dan tak puas lagi bersama ayah. How I wish you are still around.
Ayah...I am so grateful to you for what I am today. I am a very independent person and capable just because you have trained me to do so. God I never get to tell you before you go how much I love you and how much you mean to me. I keep on saying to myself that I wanted to write you to thank you for bringing me up and to tell you that I love you so much but I procrastinate and this is what happens...REGRET. I remember you always say "DONT PROCRASTINATE, SUCCESS WILL NEVER BE YOURS" and yes I failed my dear father.
Some of Ayah's favourite saying:-
1. Dont assume as it makes an ass out of you and me.
2. Jangan berkhayal
3. It's all in the mind
4. If you think you can, you can
5. If means I failed
6. Time waits for no man
Semenjak ayah pergi belum pernah sekali pun saya lupa untuk menghadiahkan Al-fatihah untuk ayah setiap malam sebelum saya melelapkan mata. Ayah semoga roh ayah dicucuri rahmat dan ditempatkan di kalangan orang-orang yang mukmin disisi Allah. Amin
Today, all of us gathered and had lunch at Kuldip's place. The legacy of my late father his 17 grandchildren from his 6 children.
On the day he died, I really wanted to see him as I have not seen him for almost 5 months but with my condition that time I was really hoping that he will turn up at my cousin's wedding.

Gotemba & Atsugi, Monday June 22nd 2009
My sista and meSince I planned to take them to Gotemba and Atsugi, I woke up very early today as I wanted to make kuih sri muka for my sista before we leave...smalam dia suruh buat and both of them terkejut bila diorang bangun je kuih tu udah terhidang atas meja. Eh..eh...cik abang mintak tolong hantar pergi ofis pulak as he's late for office. Delayed a bit coz dah terkona kat tempat lain di pagi hari. Could only leave at 10.30 instead of 8.30 in the morning.
terjebak dah depa-depa ni kat sini..
tak nampak Mt. Fuji pun ari ni..it was so foggy...We reached Gotemba, Premium Factory Outlet almost noon. Its about 100 kms away or slightly more from my house and its about 1 hour 30 minutes drive. Too bad they were not able to see Mt. Fuji as it was another rainy day. Told these ladies that they only have 3 hours max for shopping as we have another place to go after that. Left Gotemba at 3.30pm and took them to Noritake Square at Atsugi (another 1 hour drive from Gotemba to Atsugi) coz nak pergi beli pinggan Datin Permaisuri and they all pun teringin la jugak nak tengok pinggan2 noritake kat situ. Of course the price is way much cheaper compared to KL. Akhirnya terjebak jugak my sista....hahahahahaha tapi I masih terselamat lagi. Insyaallah kalau ada rezeki sebelum meninggalkan bumi jepun ni nak la jugak beli satu set for myself to mark our stay in Nippon.
ni la pinggan si mosha...
i ngan maksu cuma tumpang bergambar dan berseronok belek-belek pinggan je....On the way home, jalan jam sampai rumah dah malam and keletihan pun....jadi dah tak berdaya nak keluar kemana-mana lagi....tunggu besok ari pulak la kan....kesian budak-budak seharian kena tinggal ngan mummy.

Sunday, June 21st 2009
hari hujan so view pun tak nampak best sangat..Kesian maksu ngan mosha....hujan dari malam tadi tak berhenti lagi...putus harapan dorang nak ke Harajuku to see the Sunday freaks. Kita tukar plan...bawak le dorang ke Lala Port kat Toyosu. Pusing-pusing kat Lala Port, keluar masuk kedai and after our late lunch (dah petang pun) we all pun balik. Sampai kat rumah pun masih hujan lagi tapi kesian jugak diorang ni kan...so I told my better half that I'm going to take them to Harajuku coz diorang ni dah tak sabar nak pergi 100 yen shop yang 4 tingkat tu. Sampai jugak kat kedai 100 tu walaupun kena meredah hujan. We all kat situ sampai kedai tu tutup amboi berbakul-bakul diorang ni membeli belah. Tu la penangan kedai 100 boleh jadi sasau bila kat situ. Pergi sekali tak cukup asyik nak pergi je..walhalnya hari pertama tu dah bawak dah pergi kedai 100 yang kat belakang rumah tu tapi kena pergi kedai yang besar pulak la kan. Nasib baik kedai dah tutup kalu idak mau tak balik 2 orang pompuan ni.
lunch kat food court Lala Port

Ketibaan Mosha dan Maksu (Sabtu, 20 Jun 2009)
Hari ini, pagi-pagi lagi dah bangun...teruja sampai tak lena tidur. Jam 7.30 pagi I ngan sunny boy keluar menuju ke Narita Airport untuk menjemput mosha dan maksu yang datang dari KL. Selalunya saya tak pernah pun pergi menjemput any guest yang tiba dari KL...masa mak datang pun mak naik bas je dari airport tapi tak tau la ngape...rindu gamaknya dengan mosha...sanggup saya drive jauh-jauh ke Narita tu. Setiba di Narita, dia orang dah menunggu di pintu ketibaan. Alhamdulillah, terus bawak diorang balik rumah.
Sampai di rumah, maksu dan mosha jadi santa claus mengagih-agihkan barangan dan hadiah yang dibawa. Ada rendang kerang kiriman dari ucu, kuih bahulu kemboja dari cik kiah, kusyen yang dibelikan datin permaisuri dan macam-macam lagi makanan yang dibawa maksu dan mosha. Terimakasih su...kesian maksu kena turun naik teksi dan jalan kaki nak pergi beli barang-barang yang I pesan. Ha kau...sebeban maksu beli cili merah ngan cili padi. Suka PA kita bila tengok stok cili tu....terus buat ngam choy (sambal ketuk ikan bilis). Agaknya keletihan, maksu dan mosha terus tidur sampai ke petang.
Petang itu, I cuma dapat bawa diorang jalan-jalan dekat ngan rumah je, of course 100 Yen tu semestinya maggi la kan. Sebelah malam pulak bawa diorang pusing-pusing naik kereta sebab hujan pastu sempat lagi singgah Hard Rock Cafe sebab diorang nak beli souvenir kat situ. Kesian diorang tak dapat posing kat Hard Rock sebab ari hujan. Tiba di rumah dah hampir jam 2 pagi. Okay nanti kita sambung cerita besok hari pulak ye.
ni kat kedai 100 yen yang kat belakang rumah kita

Friday, 19 June 2009
I woke up early today to cook for later meal as I want to accompany my other half for his appointment and we left 10 minutes before 7 and managed to catch the 6.57 am bus to Keio University Hospital at Shinanomachi. We got there early and while waiting we sat at Starbucks to have our breakfast. There were 2 stray cats and were so happy when I started feeding them with my sandwiches and my other half was busy throwing his muffin crumbs to the birds. How I wish I could bring the cats home and give them shelter.
This time it was quick and got home at 11.00. We had early lunch and my other half left for office and I left for my meeting with Adinda and Ratu.
Adinda came to pick me up and we headed to Ratu's office in Kamiyacho and had lunch at a nearby Italian Restaurant. Ratu will be leaving Tokyo soon and that is why we had the farewell lunch. From there we adjourned to a nearby cafe for a cup of coffee and gosh we actually sat there for hours and only bid farewell at 5.00pm and that is only because I have another dinner appointment at 6.00 and Ratu and Adinda has to go home too.
at Ratu's office and see Tokyo Tower at the background
We all had pasta here
Went home, pick up the kids and went together with my friend to TGIF in Roponggi. My friend from Shanghai will be leaving the next day and she wanted to buy us dinner.
My other half couldnt join us as he was still at the office. The kids really had a wonderful time with their beloved Anty Sam and after having her for 10 days they were so sad that she has to leave tomorrow. We left just before 9.00 coz with the kids around its not a good idea to be hanging around Roponggi at that hour. Roponggi is one of the entertainment district with a lot of pubs, discos, karaoke lounges, gentlemen clubs etc. etc. Hard Rock Cafe is also located in Roponggi.
we were stuffed with food
