Me and my 1-year old baby

bukak citer sikit.. ada orang tanya saya, macamana saya buat my part-time baking project (everyday sampai 24 buku kek) dengan baby kecik (taklah kecik beno, dah setahun sebulan dah..) Muhsin tak jalan lagi [sebenonyer, dia dah jalan 3/4 langkah, tapi dia tu kan ker budak pangku-ke-pangku, jadi dia manje terlebih (sudah)] hehehe.. so.. biarlah saya bagi gambo that will explain everything about how i bake and 'kerja'kan kerja-kerja pengcoklatan with my kiddo ituew..

nah!

itu ler...

Ayah dia (tomei-tomei saya) amik gambo.

..and i dont mind people cakap saya macam bibik bila gendong baby saya.

what important is my bonding with him.

itu tak ternilai.

(told ya, it's a simple life)

salam gendong-gendongan everyone! :o)

True Friend

Friend gives you smile

But true friend gives you happiness

Friend will lie about you

But true friend won’t tell your weakness

Friend knives your back

But true friend will slog your face

Thousands friends come when you’re happy

But only one true friend comes when you cry

Friend comes when he needs you

But true friend comes when you need him

Friend leaves when everybody does

But true friend comes when everybody leaves

Friend comes and leaves

But true friend is yours forever

****

To you

Nora Abd Rahman @ Angah
You are my true friend

Thank you Allah for giving me such a lovely and wonderful friend like you.

We are apart, but our hearts bind.

And never be apart.

(cry) -- tu yg maleh nak tulis pasal sahabat-sahabat ni..
gembeng jadinya.. ko la ni Ngah.. hehehe (sambil kesat air mata)

Nora is one friend whom I know since my ITM's time. Kalau campur this year.. it has been 17 years now. Banyak yg kitorang lalui, semuanya manis belaka.. (bukan takde yg pahit, tapi dah lupa..) dan saya menganggap apa yg kitorang lalui bersama tu semuanya lovely moments. Memang leh tergelak sorang-sorang. Dia punya marah-marah pun kalau saya remember leh tergelak, apa lagi dia tarik suara ala-ala Amy Search nyanyi lagu Search - Mentari di Ufuk Timur.. hahaha...

I must admit there are things that reminds me so much of her (of all the things we went together) -- perkataan kaki ulu, rambut bercabang, 'putek', fos-opis (hahaha)... There are moments I go through here that I wish her to be besides me, giggling over things that need not to be said. There are also moments when we together cry over happy things.. pelik. And that's the chemistry. I need not to explain over things kalau dengan dia. Paham-paham aje sudah. Dah boleh tergelak dan termenangis sesama. We reach to that understanding 'level' without having to say anything. Itu yg special. Especially when we just say our heart about our friendship, tears may rolling down our cheeks unnoticed.

She's a true friend, she's a loving person and she is beautiful inside out. She is Nora Abdul Rahman.

(I googled, and I found this.. sorry babe.. hehehe)

And to you Angah, I love you to bits. I swear.

(i cried again) nyampah tau...

hehehe (ketawa. nangis. ketawa)

That's the craziest things happen between us most of the time we communicate.

~~~

Salam kasih sayang buat sahabat-sahabat sejati yg lain, you know who you are and I love you very dearly too. Too many names to mention; Marsya, Achik, Arwah Murni, Gia, K Eyta, Toin, Shukor, Alin - to name a few. And my office friends, you know who you are too.

May peace be upon you always, my friends. May Allah keeps you and people you love safe. May your future be filled with greater enrichment and enlightment. May Allah bless all of you, darls. I am really hoping for these friendships last till the last breath of ours. Semoga kekal abadi hingga ke alam akhirat.

Amin Ya Rabbal Alamin.

(nangis) -- ceh.. gembeng.. tak pasal2 biji mata bengkak sebab tulis blog ni tau.. teruk! :o)

The Updates

Today is 26 August 2010. Am at work. Curi-curi blogging jap.. (to ease the pening2 lalat nak siapkan minutes of management meeting which was held this morning). I updated my skin progress tadi, that was at the previous few entries. Those who really follow, gi la kat entry tu. Tengoklah, and drop your sincere comments so that I dont perasan alone. hehehe.. For me, I've concluded that my search has now ended fruitfully. I found it. Alhamdulillah.

Mencik!

Ini adalah mesej yg selalu saya nak tulis, tapi saya selalu lupa bila depan computer. Sekarang ni, bila saya teringat jek, saya takmau tangguh-tangguh lagi untuk memasukkannya agar saya tak marah diri sendiri nanti-nanti. Hah, geram saya tau.. ini tajuknya :

Antara perkara yang saya rasa saya takde 'jodoh' with :

1. Emulco (korang tau tak emulco tu apa? hehehe) - - hanya jauhari yg mengenal manikam (sebab tu nama saya bukan johari.. patut la saya tak kenal maniam) hahaha (sorry, entry lewat malam.. tu yg agak merapu tu..)

2. Karamel @ gula hangus.. (tak pernahnyer jadi) - boring ahh!

3. Sarung ketupat. (tangan saya la yg keras kot.. tak menjadi2)

4. Bunga straw (oitttt! mana ada lagi sekaranggg....) hahaha

5. Tak terfikir lagi. Ooh saya ingat.. kolam air panas. Tak tau kenapa.. setiap seorang dari ahli keluarga saya termasuk anak2 dan emak, dan sepupu dan jiran depan rumah saya dan ada kemungkinan pakcik rumah ujung tu semua dah pergi, tapi kenapa saya sorang jek yang tak pernah pergi lagi kan? Kat mana saya masa semua orang pergi, ek? Pelik tak cenggitu?? ....Saya pun.

Dah tu jek buat masa ni, dah puas hati saya bila saya dah taip 'emulco' tu tadi. Ngeh ngeh.. ngeh.. (paling geram sebab buat kek kukus hawflakes semalam letak cocoa emulco tapi rasa kurang (tak) sedap, rasa cam chemical. i dont loooike. i geram hokey? grrrr...

Sejuk kat luar tu, saya rasa rugi kalau tak masuk tidur sekarang. Salam awal malam nan indah.

Ramadhan's Affair

Ramadhan bulan mulia. It has been a year rupanya this blog. Alhamdulillah. I remember I wrote about how I love the Ramadhan ambience. And am still is. We still do the terawih prayer at home. Ayahnyer (tomei-tomei) jadi imam, we all jadi makmum. Only this time, Muhsin has grown 1 year older. The 'serenity' and delighting moments are now different. Last year, he was less than 1 month old and the way he wanted the attention was just a little shake in his buaian (yg diletakkan next to us). Last 2/3 nights.. the grown up him used different method to grab attention, he moved around with small bin over his head.. lebih kurang cam ni:

(gambar contoh -

sebab masa tu mana leh amik gambo, tengah solat)

I tak tahan gelak and keluar dari jemaah. Asyik kena kejar imam bila masuk niat makmum balik.. Gossh.. sangat mencabar.. hehehe.. Dia panjat kaki kakak ni, dia tarik kain imam (dah pesan Imam suruh ikat kain kuat-kuat), dia naik katil, turun.. lompat, lambung diri.. segala lah..

Solat subuh pun dia dah bangun tau..

Calon imam muda.. :o)

cuma kalau subuh,

kakak-kakak memang ada kurang sikit nak kisahkan dia..

habis jek salam... tengoklah ni.. :

Next year, he turns two and prayed that he'll join us all. See in next year's Ramadhan posting pulak.. hehehe

Bawah ni takde apa-apa, hanya my cubaan untuk buat kek lapis kukus choc chips and hawflakes. Comment : tak berapa menjadi, should try again next time.

Salam keceriaan, semoga semua ibadah diterima Allah, Amin.

Ni Pasal MY Skin

Meh nak citer sikit..

Saya tengah mencuba skincare baru..

saya sendiri nak tau keberkesanan produk tu..

my close friend here yang pakai, muka dia bersih & nampak semulajadi

produk tu produk herba, bukan dari malaysia

***

Ini gambar kulit saya sebelum pakai product tu,

memangggg pakai foundation, muka banyak jerawat kecil (tak kuar),

dan banyak parut jerawat kecil-kecil kat pipi dan sekitar dagu

***
Hari ke-3 saya pakai produk tu
(my photo - Aug 12)

bare skin (no foundation sebagai asas make up)

menggelupas sikit, few areas rasa agak tight

(punya la lebar muka kiterrr...) hehehe

lipstick tu memang ler kena pakai,

kang rupa kiter cam orang sakit jek.. hehehe

~~~

nak citer sikit pasal produk tu :

antara aturan pemakaiannya ialah takleh pakai foundation

dalam masa treatment (2 minggu)

(kata hati : errr.. what? fondesen takleh pakai? mana bisaaaa..)

masa baca tu, i think twice.

cemana ni? 2 minggu tu lama tau.

beranikah daku?

truth is i'm a no-foundation freak kinda lady..

i mesti pakai foundation - kalau tak, kulit i nampak la yg parut-parut tu..
tak berani gi jenjalan without apply foundation.

but this time,

setelah mengelamun membayangkan kulit yg sihat 6472 kali

i challenge myself.

musti berani.

today i datang opis, without foundation.

(tu yg gambar tu - dah habis berani la tu)

***

so far, i think it's working..

(rasa tegang kat pipi kiri kanan ni)

tunggu for my next progress.. harap menjadi.

Insya Allah. Amin.

***

that was the last entry.

i post new today 19 Aug.

yg ni reaaaaaal bare skin.
(gambar kat rumah, tak mandi lagi) ooppss!
takde faktor pencahayaan yg menarik untuk menutup flaws.
seadanya. nampak la keadaan kulit yg sebenornya.

comment : masih under treatment kot.

keluar jerawat sepatah dua kata kat sekeliling muka, tapi pori-pori mengecil.

and satu yg paling kiter suka : dah jimat duit sikit. foundation dah 8 hari tak pakai. hehehe

~~~~~~~~~~

This photo (though it is on the same topic) is taken on 24 Aug 2010

(that's more or less after 2 weeks' application)

my skin's condition on a real bare skin

nota kaki : nampak itu cam pinkish2 sikit tak? ke saya yg perasan? hehehe

yg ni photo muka yg dah touched-up with little (i repeat, little) bedak

without foundation (I swear!)

overall comment : It does good (wonders if I can say) to my skin.

My friend said, my face skin is now fairer (naturally)

-- dulu kalau nampak fair pun, tak ori.. :o)

Alhamdulillah,

and I proudly say that my searching for a suitable and 'workable' skincare is now closed.

*end*

(ye lah, dah 2 minggu..) hehehe

Note : I put here because I wanna know my skin's progress, not because of anything else. It's purely personal and please feel free to enjoy it. :o)

Happy 'Best'day!
