Life In the Fast Lane...

Wanita kerjaya = sucks.

Semalam keluar ofis pukul 9mlm. Sucks. Beli tiket LRT, call Ayahanda Terchenta. Oh, sudah sampai rumah. Bagus2x. Agak kesal sebab tak dapat menghantar orang tua sendiri pulang ke kampung. Apa nak buat. Jadi wanita kerjaya yang ada meeting whole day memang begitu. Sucks.

Walaupun badan saya sangat penat, dalam lrt sempat lagi buat kerja. Huhu. Harus bagi tamparan kepada diri sendiri. Dulu beriya2 nak sangat kerja ni kan, amik lah! *Tempeleng diri-sendiri*

Saat2 macam ni, saya rindukan Pakcik Trump.

...

Apa yg saya melalut nih? Pakcik Trump dera saya lebih dahsyat. Saya balik ofis pukul 3 pagi. Saya mati-matian siapkan proposal utk Pak Lah sampai tak tido. Saya kena pergi meeting pukul 10malam! Semua gara-gara Pakcik Trump!

Maafkan saya. Otak saya penat sebenarnya, jadi berhalusinasi sekejap.

Saya mahu bukak bisnes sendiri saja. Siapa mau jadi bisnes partner saya sila angkat tangan! Kita bukak kafe dan lepak hari-hari. Apa macam?

Bila jadi macam ni, alangkah bagus jadi tukang angan2 profesional :p

If April Is Busy, May is Mayhem

Next month's header comes out too early. Waaayyyy too early.

Why, you beg to ask? Because next month, I anticipate that my already fast-paced, high-strung and hectic life will get even busier. To the max. The effect will be...

Mayhem.

May:hem = a state of rowdy disorder (Source: Dictionary.com)

Time for staring out the window is about to end.

The 'Tak Jadi' Weekend

Our weekend... always tak jadi.

Every night before Saturday, I always make a mental note. Saturday, want to:

1. Pergi pasar buy groceries.
2. Tidy up home.
3. Go jogging.

Sometimes when I feel I want to go out, I add:

1. Jalan-jalan @ Jalan TAR.
2. Watch movie.
3. Window shopping.

This week, add 1 more wish list:

1. Want to visit my brother in Shah Alam.
2. Want to go Pesta Buku Antarabangsa @ PWTC.

Come Saturday morning? Sleep feels 10 billion times better, so snooze till 10am :p Then wake up, kacau Suami Terchenta (still sleeping). After that, angan2 want to eat nasi lemak but then couldn't be bothered to prepare / buy. So, eat a healthy breakfast cum lazy one (fruits lor). Kacau Suami Terchenta again. Forced myself to do laundry, kacau Suami Terchenta again.

Afternoon, still lazy to go out. Kacau Suami Terchenta, let's order delivery. Tak sempat pergi pasar 'dy. Suami Terchenta said ok (after kira2 duit in our wallets) so called McD for two set of meals. Haha. Suami Terchenta asked, when are we going out la? I said, later la. We eat first. Before that, help me do e-filing (before income tax website becomes slow like turtle).

Two hours later, laze in front of tv. Suami Terchenta's turn to kacau me. Suddenly we realize - eh, evening 'dy! Tak sempat visit my brother. Hihi. Tomorrow la...

Night falls. Let's go pasar malam, I said. Ok, Suami Terchenta agreed. Let's go after Maghrib, I proposed. Now, already Isyak. Still in front of laptop, blogging & surfing the Net. Walioweh! I think this will also be another 'tak jadi' plan!

Huhu. Welcome to Mr & Mrs Junaidix's weekend...

30 Rocks!

... In Suami Terchenta's case la, not mine. I would probably flee & scream like a banshee if I turned 30.

Not that he would admit it. He woke up and said, 'Wow, I feel like... 17.' *smack my head*

This year, I don't actually have a birthday gift for Suami Terchenta because... well. We lost the gift 6 months ago. He was supposed to share same birthday with Suami Terchenta.

Regardless, one doesn't turn 30 that often and I am currently under extreme duress at work that I need a break more than he needs a birthday celebration so it was just an excuse for me to splurge a bit.

We had a wonderful weekend getaway at our now-not-so-favourite hotel in town:

He looks simply adorable in this photo:

We spent the whole day lounging and watching tv in the room, just unwinding. We did not feel leaving the room - after all I paid two day's worth of my daily wage for the room so we might as well spent as much time in it as possible :p But as night fell, we were forced to roam Pavillion for dinner.

Dinner was TGIF, we had their gobsmacking Buffalo Wing and so-so steak and Whitefish. More importantly, we had an enjoyable & proper dinner, something we had not had since I started work at my new office (especially so now. Sigh).

At first we wanted to go for movie after dinner, but changed our mind. He wanted to watch the rest of football game on tv in the room and I had bought an interesting book (Angel & Demon, by Dan Brown) which I could not wait to start on.

I am glad that we went away for weekend because I felt that I truly need the break and Suami Terchenta ought to have some sort of celebration to compensate the fact that I had no idea what to give him this year. So it was a win-win situation :)

To Suami Terchenta, once again Happy Birthday. I do hope you enjoy the relaxing moments we had this weekend ;)

Love You When You Sleep

Love is like this shell I picked up in my open palm

Don't get me wrong with the title of this entry. I love my husband 24/7. All the time. Even when I am feeling upset. That's normal. But sometimes at night, when he was too tired and fell asleep before I did, I propped myself up on my arm and watched him sleep peacefully. And I feel a deep love for him in this tranquil moment.

Happy Birthday, darling. You are my shell, protecting me. My sun, giving light to me. My heart, sustaining me. My love, today & forever more.
