just some updates

May 17, 2009 at 9:56 am (Couple Time, Family & Friends, Me Time)

I havent been updating my blog lately. Why? Cos I feel that my life is boring. It’s the same old thing always. Work – Little Rascals – Aly and the cycle continues. Oh, but please don’t be mistaken – i am enjoying every bits of it (errr.. not so entirely on “work” though). Oh, well – the truth is I have been busy with all these 3 and has no time to update my blog. yahahhaha..

In April and early May – Alhamdulillah, we had many orders and most of them are well above $100 bucks.. so you can imagine the sheer size of our cakes. Do check out the flickr if you had not seen our latest designs. :)

So amidst all the cake-making and my nvr ending work, I totally forgot my anniversary! And, if the lady had forgotten means no dinner, no flowers, no gifts, no couple time (cos I can’t rely on the man of the house to remember the dates!) And, when I told him about the forgotten date, he went like.. “oh ya, it’s the 5th rite?”.

My quick reply to him “Oh, 5th? Who did you marry, ah?”.

Anyway, suggested a nice dinner last night and he gave me the look – oh ho… ManU game. So, he said dinner after 10 at a restaurant? Errr.. which restaurant will open till wee hours? Oh, 24 hrs sarabat/coffee shop. So romantic leh!!!!!

We ended up calling KFC at 10pm cos Aly fell asleep. So our dinner was at 1130pm. I insisted that this not our candlelight dinner! No way. :P

I like this

I like the way Google brands itself.
The way they creatively “play” with their brand image.
Adapt to different occasion and seasons!
Totally irradical and non-mainstream.
I like!

& not forgetting

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mummies out there!

Well, that includes me.

First trip to the Dentist

April 5, 2009 at 1:59 am (Aly, Daily Adventures, Food & Health, Parenting & Kids) (, )

Today was an early day for me – it was Aly’s first time at the dentist. Her dentist is Dr. Rashid Tahir of Kids Dentist @ Camden. Young chap (married with kids) so accomplished has made the Muslim community proud! Seriously, his clientele are from many nationalities. At least, in the 2hrs while waiting in the kiddo waiting room, I have met Korean, Indian, British families. :)

I wanted Aly’s first experience at the dentist to be a happy one. So, last night, I prepped her sharing the goodness of visiting a dentist. She then decided to launch into her detailed description of recent trip to the hospital due to high fever.. bla .. bla.. and she came to one point : Aly cried.. Aly tak nak baring. Oops.. Explained to her that at the dentist, she will have to somehow lie (even showed her while in our Tucson a 45 degrees elevation). Sigh..didnt managed to convince her. But whatever the excuses were, we still ended up at Dr Rashid’s clinic this morning. 

 

Where’s the photos of Aly in the dentist chair??? Arrhhh.. no opportunity to take a single shot as our dear princess was wailing the moment Dr Rashid called out her name. She composed herself when he started asking about her diet, teeth brushing and the part when he took out the teeth model and start teaching her (err. including the mommy; I supposed) on the right method of brushing our teeth. I was very conscious – refrained from flashing my set of teeth to Dr Rashid in case he spotted plaque in between my front teeth. Hee.

The verdict: Dr commended on Aly’s teeth. Nice and clean.. thanks to Omah. He didnt see a need to clean any of her teeth.. Whoaa… But he did advised me to start saving $ for Aly’s braces cos her baby teeth are close to each other and that will mean difficulty for her adult teeth to grow properly. :(  

We left the clinic with $70 less in my bank account but with a loot in tow. A helicopter frisbee that came right out of Dr Rashid’s treasure chest. Looks like he really knows how to win the hearts of the little ones!

hallo blog

March 23, 2009 at 12:22 am (Aly, Daily Adventures, Family & Friends, Parenting & Kids)

hallo there.. my dearest blog. Yes, I have not been spending time filling you with all the happenings in my life lately. Yup.. once again, work has taken over your place. What’s new, right?

In fact today, a Sunday – I am working on my IBM (ie real hard work!). Decided to take a 5 min break and here I am facing the post entry template and looking blank. Can’t seem to find anything interesting to write about. Maybe I am missing my mojo today.

Let me see… oh ya! today, Aly attended GUG all by herself. No crying at all. Am so proud of the little one. Even Teacher Khairi and Teacher Lin was equally proud of her as well. She was participative despite being left alone in class. The secret lies in the daddy bringing her to class while the mummy was nowhere to be seen (cos she went to grab some snacks for breaktime). No mummy = no cries, no howling, no more pathetic looking face, no more blackmail. Amazing!!

Family Historical excursion

January 28, 2009 at 2:18 pm (Aly, Daily Adventures, Family & Friends, Jus Fun)

The daddy bought both daughter and mummy for an excursion last weekend. We visited historical landmark at Fullerton – paid a visit to the mama merlion and baby merlion (haha.. as explained by Aly). It was an exciting day for the little one. I was never that into history – so it was the waffle ice cream at Gelare that made me glee with happiness.

After licking her last spoonful of vanilla bean ice-cream, Aly pestered her dad “Aly nak cuci kaki” (translation – Aly wants to wash feet). Well, it’s another way of saying that she wanted to play in the water; not swim okay. She’s terrified of being thrown into the water.

We decided to then make a trip down to Marina Barrage. We had so much fun there and I get to shop. Yes.. shop.. bought a lanyard for myself, a cushion for my hubby and a Wally toy for Aly. And oh ya.. for the family, I bought a picnic basket so that we can come back again for picnic sessions. Hee. We’ll be back!!

New pages in life

January 27, 2009 at 12:22 pm (Little Rascals) (, , , , )

I finally got around to doing the Facebook pages for Little Rascals. Yay.. finally.

I have uploaded pictures of apparels, footwear, accessories and of course, my diaper cakes!

NOT an easy task, hokay. Otherwise I would have completed it long time ago.

And after such major accomplishments, I have decided that it needed a good-looking profile picture.

So, I did this. Nice?

Monday Blues

January 19, 2009 at 10:09 am (Me Time) (, , )

Was wondering whether I have passed the stage of co-dependent. I thought I had but guess being human; I can’t let it go completely.

Is it important to me to be accepted in a community?

An incident today made me realise it still hurts to be the special one (err.. or rather another way of saying that I was left out). 

And beneath all the smiles and laughter, there is still an ongoing act of hypocrisy.

Sometimes, I wonder how it all started and snowballed into this mess of complexity.

Looks like I really have to learn to let it not affect me; even a tiniest bit.

:(
