Where do I begin. An apology? An explanation? An excuse? Or do I just pretend like nothing happens and just start to tell you people about the latest things in our lives?
Meh sini lap sikit habuk kat blog ni. Hehe.
I decided to do all. Sorry peeps for neglecting this blog because I'm so busy throughout the past two months and I hardly spent time at home let alone on a computer and by the way, our house is finally completed.
Hah.
That cleared up, let's introduce my new blog skin (again). The light at the end of the tunnel seems appropriate because there's probably a number of reasons why November seems like I'm finally getting out of a dark tunnel into the light:
- My colleague is finally back from her maternity leave. Hurray!
- Our house is finally completed. Hurray!
- I finally completed filling up my travel claim forms and can wait for my money to be reimbursed by the Company. Hurray!
- I'm finally pregnant. Oops. Itu tipu. Masih lagi anak
dara.
Talking about our house, last week we went to have our first peek at the completed apartment building (yup, walaupun gaji sebagai kuli korporat adalah sangat memuaskan, tapi masih tak mampu beli rumah ada tanah ok). We met our future neighbours and they seemed like decent people. We even joked about how small our houses look compared to the show room we were ushered into before the wives' jaws crashed open and the hubbies whipped out their pens and signed the sales agreement. Sesal dahulu pendapatan kau... walaupun pendapatan kau tak seberapa sangat.
Tapi, small house means small investment to turn it into a dream house. Why do we need a bungalow? We don't even have kids yet! By the time we have one (or twins, as we keep telling ourselves), we probably won't be staying here anymore. Huhu. Bonda Terchenta, sila doakan anakmu ini dapat transfer ke sana ye.
Here are a few photos of the house (pardon the quality of the photos):
The living room view, upon entering the house |
The living room view from the other end |
The master bedroom (separuh siap) |
The kitchen area (about same size with our current kitchen) |
The first headache's gone with the house targeted for completion next February (Insya Allah), and now we will face another headache - how to go about renovating it?
And before we even discuss the budget, we have to agree on the colour scheme, because I'm proposing black and white, and Suami Terchenta is all - no way, that's boooorinnng....
Ada sesiapa nak bagi idea kaler apakah patut kami cat ruang tamu baru kami nanti?

Agenda petang ini.

Last Thursday we had gotong-royong bersama Eric to decorate our floor and this was one of the ideas I came up with - rumah kampung ala low cost :p
Mak saya suka dengar lagu Hindi. Suka dengan bangat sekali. Suka sampai ajak saya pergi Low Yat untuk cari modulator & USB drive untuk download lagu2 Hindi. Pergh. Ibu-ibu zaman sekarang adalah sangat hi-tech.
Tapi bila dah dapat apa yang diidamkan, dia tak pandai pulak nak download lagu dari Internet. Haruslah saya & adik saya jadi cikgu terjun tolong ajarkan cara nak convert Youtube jadi MP3. Tapi. Mak saya seumur hidup sebelum ni tak pernah pegang mouse, tiba-tiba nak suruh convert Youtube jadi MP3?? Apekah?
Mak saya terkial-kial sebab baru je belajar click & right-click tu apa. Nak masukkan nama lagu dalam kotak search pun separuh menangis jugak saya & adik saya mengajar. Apa lagi nak ingat step2 ni:
1. Taip 'youtube' kat kotak address dan tekan Enter
2. Taip nama lagu dalam kotak Search
3. Klik video clip yang nak di convert
4. Select url lagu. Right click untuk copy
5. Bukak software converter, tekan butang 'Youtube'
6. Paste url
7. Tekan butang 'Convert'
Untuk orang yang baru first time berjinak-jinak dengan mouse, korang rasa ni bukan sangat impossible ke?
Tiga hari jugak la emak kesayanganku praktis, tapi mungkin sebab benda baru (baru belajar la kan) jadi otak beliau mengalami culture shock. Mak selalu je lupa step2 di atas. Sampai la, saya bagi example guna aktiviti faveret beliau. Shopping.
'Mak, katakan la Youtube ni pasaraya Gi*nt. Mak kenalah tau nak pergi ke mana (taip URL youtube). Sampai sana, mak nak cari tepung (search nama lagu). Bila mak dah jumpa tepung, mak kena decide nak tepung brand apa (klik video clip). Bila dah jumpa, mak pun amik, letak dalam shopping cart (copy url lagu), pastu mak pergi ke kaunter bayaran (software converter). Kat kaunter, mak letak tepung atas kaunter (paste url). Then mak bayarlah (Convert), barulah mak dapat beli tepung (download lagu).'
Saya harus tepuk bahu sendiri sebab boleh come up dengan analogi spontan ni. Yang sangat bestnya, lepas tu mak sangat cepat tangkap. Sekarang, mak dah terer download lagu. Huhu...
Apapun, syabas kepada mak sebab dah pandai guna Internet! :D

Cerita #1: Dulu saya ada rumet merangkap best friend masa kat UTM. Dia seorang Kristian. Saya seorang Islam. Tapi waktu Maghrib kami sama-sama baca kitab - saya baca Al-Quran atas sejadah, dia baca Bible atas katil. Untuk kamu agamamu, dan untukku agamaku...

A couple of nights ago, while waiting for Suami Terchenta to finish his night course @ Cititel, I went to KLCC to cuci mata. Ya, ya... Working at KLCC doesn't mean I get the chance to cuci mata frequently. Usually lunch time I stay in the office coz so lazy to go down.
Suddenly walked into Isetan and blew away what's left of my salary on Communique blouse and Executive pants! :O I can't help it, leh! The mega sales discounts were so irresistible and no way I could get THOSE clothes at THOSE prices any other time. Hanya Tuhan membalas (as Diyana of diyanazman.com would say).
I must hand over my credit card to Suami Terchenta for safekeeping. Otherwise, I'll be getting a few more clothes such as:
1. A new swimming suit:

2. Shawls
3. New Baju Kurung:
I HEART this baju kurung, isn't it elegant? Except for its humongous sleeves, it is exactly something I want for my Raya outfit (eh? Baru je nampak kat Internet, dah kata macam tu?) Selling at RM290. Sigh. Is credit card accepted? :p
I know, I know! I've got one already and since I don't go swimming every day why need two, right? But LOOK AT THAT DESIGN! How not to fall in love with that burqini? (Btw, burqini is the more or, a loooootttttt more modest version of bikini for Muslimah) Check out Al-Fareeda Bazaar for this kind of swimming suit. The price is reasonable too (RM100) compared to other online shops selling similar item.
2. Shawls
With the new baju, also need new tudung. Jen can become a testament to this crazy habit of both mine & Ainie's. These shawls are gorgeous. The good thing about this blog is, not only the lovely ladies sell shawls, they also provide step-by-step guide on how to wear them with style & elegance!
