when marissa gets creative :)

We went out few days back...yesss we love going out ....family outing.Went to IKANO and IKEA.Marissa went to the play land,muaz were not allowed to join his sister,not 3  yet,sorry abang,next year darling.

yo!yo!rappers in da house!

muaz...where r U????

my precious

herselfmade ring,excuse the prints on the hand(ikea playland)

bracelet

pink bracelet for mummy :)

Bought Marissa a charm bracelet..she loved it.The beads where you bought from all those small kiosks,u get to choose your own charms and get them to tie it up for you.Marissa went home happy :)The next day as I was busy cooking,she made her own bracelet.She asked for strings from me,which I didn't have any..so...what happened was,she took some rubber bands,and added the beads I bought for her not so long ago.I was impressed,touched and so proud of her...proud of you baby!!!Mummy love you!!Now,I'm going to encourage her even more on crafting project or anything that she sets her heart on.(muaz wants to bake and fix cars )

hati sama kaler,rambut lain kaler...but niat n perasaan lain2 :)

Interesting tajuk??Hmmm...I'll try to make this as brief as possible.I'm not sure how but I'll give my best shot.Rambut sama hitam,hati lain2...I don't think it's relevan nowadays as most of us were born with different hair color...mine is light brown...wwwahhhhh...why?tak caya ke??
Anyways..it doesn't matter what color is your skin or your hair or your eyes,bla,bla,bla...It doesn't matter to me.I'm a very simple person,whoever knows me will tell you the same thing.I can make things complicated if you want me too but I'm not interested to complicate things....(i'm too busy to do that)Most of my friends have called me "lurus"..simply because,I am.
I don't care whether you're rich or poor,you wear designers or vincci or brand cap ayam,couture or pasar malam...I SEE you as in INSIDE you..your heart...whether you're sincere or you're not...whether you're pure or a diva in the making or..bla,bla,bla...u know what I mean.
As i promised I'l make this short,I end this entry here..hopefully it makes sense.(it doesn't matter if it doesn't makes sense to you)....:)
Wassalam.

Awal Muharram1431/18th december 09

Salam...
Awal Muharram is coming and I'm kinda lookin forward to it.I sort of looking back on what I've achieved in 2009,if I had done the right things,done the wrong things (byk agaknya)made right or wrong decisions and if I had mature in my decision making,in my relationships with loved ones,family,friends,neighbours,etc..etc..
Sad to say,some still remains the same,still dwell on old things,still rake up old stories,no compromises on little things :(
On the brighter side,I'm happy to say that I've achieved(in my opinion) few things that I'm proud of.I baked raya cookies=1st time for me,I bake cupcakes=1st time,made lasanga from scratch=1st time,had a family holiday=1st time,meet a so many new people(clients)alhamdulillah=1st time,and a lot more other blessings,Alhamdulillah.My kids are eating well,speaking well,active,my husband(MR.SO) is healthy and well,happy with my new skill=baking and yesss..it puts a smile on my face to think back what we've achieved together so far as family,couple and as an individual.Oh yess of course...I had few reunions with old buddies..yeah,that puts another big grin on my face.
so..with all that,I can say that I'm really looking forward to another year of adventure with MR.SO,marissa,muaz,my family,friends,acquaintances...etc,eTC..
I don't plan to have a new year resolution...but I do make plans for myself,my kids and my family.Looking forward to another annual holiday overseas :)..short holidays in malaysia and many more good food and outings,aminn.InsyaAllah :)

Aidil Adha 09

Salam...I hope its not too late to wish all muslims selamat hari raya aidil-adha.We had a good time visiting my dad in TGG.Wished that my other sister was there with us,insyaallah next time :)
Thank you to my other half for planning this trip and for doing all you can to make sure  I get to spend my raya with my dad n sister*love u yang*.
Thank you to my new blogger friend IDA,for coming to see me :) such a sweet person.I hope I didn'nt bore you with my non-stop chatting.I can be quite a chatterbox,esp when I'm nervous hehehe..
My kids,all of us had a great time and was sad that we had to go home so soon.we miss you Pa..insyaAllah,we'll see u again soon*hugs* from me n d kids.

sorry baby,abang.

To my dearest children,I'm truly sorry for not taking the time to look into your eyes when we talk,sometimes I'm busy with my work,housework and caught up with my own ups and downs,my mistake...I'm only human :) I pray that we will always love and respect each other and know that I'll be there for you always,insyaallah.

moving on.......

Have you ever experienced something so hurtful until you just can't let it out of your mind?So bad that you keep on dwelling about it,keep talking about it...How do you let it go?How do you move on?

I maybe good at telling someone to "move on","don't look back""God is great"...I too have issues on moving on not so long ago...but now I think I have move on and am happier that I did.I wished I can help this person that I really care for to move on with her life,to cherish the blessings that Allah swt has blessed her and to live her life but I can only wish.It's she who have to make that move...:(

(semoga dia dikurniakan hidayah untuk meneruskan kehidupan dengan hati yg terbuka dan tenang)

Idul Adha in ganu kite??jengjengjeng:)

We might celebrate our Idul Adha in Kuala Trengganu..yahooo!!If the flights not full,we just might..We sisters planned to celebrate with our dad who's in Trengganu now,teaching undergraduates English.InsyaAllah..doakan hajat kami tercapai.:)*excited*My last visit to Trengganu was many,many...MANY years ago..eh,come to think of it,did we have nightstops in TGG back then?(ame...help)

My baking class 14th Nov2009 with Pn.Nurul Huda.

I did it!!!I actually enrol myself in a  baking class and enjoyed every minute of it.Not to mention how amazed I was with the hostess,Pn.Nurul Huda and her huge kitchen.It was an amazing experience.Gotta be honest with you guys..it was quite tiring.Only after I finished baking and got into the car that I realised,I was on my feet for 4hrs...I only sat for less than 5 minutes...Okay,when I used to fly we had to endure 13-15 hours of standing and walking but that was different :)

All in all I'm proud of myself and had a great time..yess it was worth it because my hubby and my kids loved them cakes..:)

whining won't solve your problems...

Salam everyone :)....Do you whine?Who do you talk to when you're not happy about something?Everybody have their own way in tackling this issue.I have a few ways myself tho it doesn't help everytime,but most of the time it does..
I talk to my husband,my best girlfriend,doa..bla,bla,bla..Sometimes I don't want them to tell me what to do or how to solve the problem..I just need someone to hear me out..yesss...hormones kinda do that to women esp after having kids. (blaming something/someone is one one way to release stress hehehe)
So..after all that whining..what do you actually do to solve the issue?Whatever the issue maybe..how do you solve it?Do you :

1. Sleep on it
2. Argue about it
3. Work on it
4. Nothing is worth your precious time.
5. ???
6. Blame other people
7. Lash it out on other people(yg takde kena mengena dgn masalah itu)
8. ???

I don't have the answer.I know I can forgive,hard to forget and I can pretend,I can also get hurt easily.I'm very sensitive towards what people say and I'm very good at reading between the lines.
What I don't understand is why is it a problem to other people how I live my life,how I like my life to be when I never ask their opinion or bother them...:)
THAT I have yet to find the answer...I really hope one day I will.

membina masjid....

Salam...I'm pretty sure in the malay society we often hear this esp when someone is getting married.."dia nak membina masjid"(building a mosque)which is a very noble thing to do...Yess?I know I've heard it many times and have used that phrase many times(hmmmm...)What I failed to do was to actually understand the meaning behind it.....not until last week...:)
I went to visit my mom and we were talking about our routines..what happen in that week or you know just catching up on things.We were talking about the "p" word when my mom said"nauzubillah"..I asked her (panic.).."why ma???what did I say?"
My mama told me this"Ana..careful of what you say in your house.It's a doa.Just like what people always say,membina masjid...what you say in the mosque is a doa..same goes to what you say in your house.Which I quickly regretted what I said and pray that.Allah will accept my doa.
So ladies and gentlemen....it's a lesson well learnt and I hope to be more careful of what I wish or what I  say.

is this a permanent thing?

I'm beginning to enjoy baking very much and I wonder if it's just a phase or a permanent thing :) I was thinking to enrol myself in a baking class to polish my skills;if there's any..hmmmm...

lasagna anyone? :)

I made beef lasagna for the 1st time and it was a hit.It was suppose to be our dinner but it didn't make it to the dinner table...We finished the whole foil in less than 1 hr*LOL*..Alhamdulillah.I made it from scratch by following the recipe stated behind the lasagna sheets box,did a few changes to the recipe to fit my kids taste bud and mine too.Marissa even asked for more lasagna the next day but we didn't have anymore minced beef and lasagna sheets...sorry baby,mummy will make more soon okay*kiss2*
