[The Other Side of the Story]

Apa jadi dengan last nite??? Well, happy dapat jumpa Aini & Husai setelah sekian lama tak jumpa...So, macam-macam cerita la keluar....Aini is my best friend masa secondary school (soksek yang tercinta), Husai - kenal since darjah 2 & we went to the same boarding school....Kira kami sekolah sama-sama la, kelas jer lain-lain...Malu la kat my hubby, dia cuma tau wife dia nie nakal sikit tapi sebenarnya nakal banyak ;oD Best menyakat Aini & Husai, tanya macam mana la boleh tup-tup kahwin...Tu la yang dinamakan jodoh kan? Ada yang bercinta sakan tapi tak ke mana pun (aik, terkena batang hidung sendiri)...Best betul sembang malam tadi, mengimbas memori zaman persekolahan yang takkan dilupakan sampai bila-bila...Bila nak reunion kan? Jumpa ramai-ramai lagi macam-macam cerita keluar.... To Aini & Husai - thank you very much sebab belanja kami makan. Next round, our time plak treat korang key, insya-Allah. Hope that kita akan jumpa lagi... To my other half, my precious Chepok - ...

Entah kenapa hari nie tension betul, buat apapun serba tak kena....Sepanjang minggu nie banyak yang berlaku especially kesihatan yang tak berapa baik (did I mentioned about my eyes?)....Went to a clinic but at the end, kena pi Jabatan Kecemasan Hospital Kulim sebab allergic ubat - dapat la 2 suntikan. Dari sebelah mata yang sakit jadi dua-dua belah mata yang bengkak. Silap aku tak inform doctor yang aku alah painkillers. Dah tue, doctor tue pun tak tanya. Kebiasaannya doktor akan tanya so aku pun lupa la nak inform. Dugaan sungguh, tapi aku tahu aku kena banyak bersabar.... Banyak perkara yang buat aku tension....tapi kalau stuck study yang buat aku lagi tension. Sejak beberapa hari nie otak aku tak berfungsi dengan baik, kesan ubat etc. Study??? Stuck maa, takleh nak fikir....Masa makin suntuk....Maya, buat elok-elok (pesanan untuk diri sendiri).... P/s: Aini, mcm mana nak contact awak?

One of my eyes (the right eye) is not in good condition (macam nak kena repair plak). Nak kata kena ketumbit, takde mata plak. Selalu jadi macam nie, sakit bila mata berkelip & kelopak mata bengkak. Takde plak pi mengintai sesapa sampai jadi macam nie, hihihi....Nak baca buku pun payah (nak bagi excuse taknak study ler tu kan?)....Apa-apapun, aku kena gak buat kerja aku for couple of hours since tomorrow ada appointment. Nak pi servis my Vios kat Toyota Servis Prai (I prefer Segambut punya servis centre). Belum setahun usia my car, tapi almost 40,000 km dia dah jalan. Mak oii, banyak kan? Nak buat macam mana, bini photographer. Dah memang kerja diorang berjalan sana sini, out-station untuk amik gambar orang. This coming school holiday, we are going to Malacca - my hubby ada wedding job kat sana. Well, cepat siapkan kerja. Baru boleh fikir pasal nak jalan-jalan....

Well, another novel by Sophie Kinsella. I've finished reading it last Friday...Frankly speaking, I love this novel... Meet Emma Corrigan, a young woman with a huge heart, an irrepressible spirit, and a few little secrets: Secrets from her boyfriend: I’ve always thought Connor looks a bit like Ken. As in Barbie and Ken. Secrets from her mother: I lost my virginity in the spare bedroom with Danny Nussbaum while Mum and Dad were downstairs watching Ben-Hur. Secrets she wouldn’t share with anyone in the world: I have no idea what NATO stands for. Or even what it is. Until she spills them all to a handsome stranger on a plane. At least, she thought he was a stranger.…Until Emma comes face-to-face with Jack Harper, the company’s elusive CEO, a man who knows every single humiliating detail about her... For sure, I'll buy more shopaholic novels...To those who has time, you can read Chapter 1 below (taken from Random House Website ). Chapter One Of course I have secrets. Of course I...

Entry kali nie lebih kurang macam nak buat promosi la, hihihi....To those yang masih belum menonton filem animasi ini, anda dialu-alukan untuk pergi menontonnya. Tak rugi punya, anda pasti terhibur....Industri filem animasi di Malaysia dah banyak improved, so kita kena sokong usaha ini. Dah banyak sangat filem animasi luar yang kita tonton, inilah masanya kita menonton filem animasi buatan rakyat negara kita sendiri....Of course promosi yang aku buat nie free, bukan dibayar oleh mana-mana pihak pun....Sekadar menunjukkan yang aku prihatin & sokong industri filem animasi negara kita sendiri. So, apa lagi....Jom menonton & belilah DVD original tau....

I'm here @ UUM. Aini, insya-Allah kita akan jumpa soon. Plan nak jumpa awak next week since kalau next week, my hubby is around too so boleh dia kenal2 dengan Husai. This week, datang UUM naik bas. My hubby send me off kat Butterworth pagi tadi...Sedih maaa... Yesterday, pergi Sunway Carnival Mall. We watched Geng: Pengembaraan Bermula...Best, memang wajib ditonton. Sokong la industri perfileman kita, sokong la filem animasi kita yang semakin improved. Bantu la the production crews etc to achieve their target. Memang mahal kos nak buat filem animasi nie....Betul, betul, betul...So, ramai2 la pergi tonton filem animasi ini... Ok guys, got to go...Just a quick note, I started reading "Can You Keep a Secret?" by Sophie Kinsella this morning, dalam bas on the way to UUM...Hope that it will take more than a day to finish it (hehehe)...Study, aja aja fighting....

Kejap jer weekend habis....Monday dah? Time to work (ada ker patut my weekend 3 days, Kedah + Penang punya weekend)....Today, we are waiting for Balqis to come home. Rindu aarr sama my youngest niece (buat masa nie la).... I'm off to UUM again, most probably tomorrow. A lot of work to do now, kena rajin lebih sikit (lebih banyak sebenarnya)....Dok study kat umah nie, banyak sangat benda lain yang aku buat nanti (aku nie jenis yang mudah ter"distract" - yang patut buat tak dibuat, yang tak penting yang aku buat). Takde idea dah nak tulis apa....Tada....

Dear my readers, Please advise me on how to read slowly, so that I'm not finishing one novel in one day....I started reading this novel yesterday & I managed to finish it off in the same day....I don't know why I can't stop reading it. The novel was fantastic, it's real life story although the character might be fictionalized by the author (Sophie Kinsella). I bet that there is someone like Rebecca Bloomwood (Becky) out there. I'm glad that I read this novel, it reminds me not to over spend when shopping. It also reminds me to take a better care on how to handle the credit card. I got one credit card & normally I'll pay the whole amount that I've spend when the bank statement comes in so that I don't have to pay the extra (interest etc). Can't wait to watch the movie....I have to do my work first before I can continue reading another novel by Sophie Kinsella. For sure, I'll buy another series of shopaholic next time when I go to the books...

Yesterday masa outing, singgah Popular @ Megamall. Mulanya my hubby yang nak beli buku, pastu bila check content buku yang dia nak tue (pasal editing gambar), dia kata semua yang ada dalam buku tue dia dah boleh buat. Dia ingat buku tue ada pasal editing yang "hardcore" la (aku pun angguk buat-buat paham apa yang dia maksudkan). At last, aku pulak yang beli English novels, menambahkan koleksi aku padahal banyak lagi yang belum habis dibaca ;oD Since my better half nak belikan (tambahan hadiah birthday aku, mesti dia rasa bersalah sebab birthday gift dia mintak kat aku mahal, hehehe) aku pilih 3 novels: Change of Heart (Jodi Picoult) Remember Me? (Sophie Kinsella) Can You Keep a Secret? (Sophie Kinsella) Two novels are on sale, so ada discount la. Yang lagi satu, member discount 10% so not bad la kan....Pastu, alang-alang tengok buku nie, aku sambar buku Sophie Kinsella.... Confessions of a Shophaholic ....So buat masa nie, aim nak collect novels Sophie Kinsella plak. John Gri...

Friday....so hari nie nak relaks sekejap....Last nite, menghabiskan masa buat bookmarks (dah banyak bookmarks tapi masih menambahkan koleksi lagi).... Bestnya last nite dapat tido dalam bilik sendiri since air-cond dah repair, before nie asyik nomad ke bilik lain jer.... Today, kemas bilik sikit sebab bersepah sangat dengan barang yang banyak....Discover banyak lagi photo album yang belum digunakan, wedding gifts kami masih banyak yang belum digunakan....My dad pesan, jangan beli pinggan mangkuk lagi since dah banyak dapat hadiah tapi masa kat Brisbane, bertambah lagi koleksi pinggan mangkuk kami (kali nie yang berjenama la, Corelle, Noritake, Mikasa, Red Vanilla etc).... Pastu tolong mak masak apa yang patut....Dah jadi kerja aku, mesti kena mandikan ikan, ayam, udang....then masak nasi & goreng sayur kangkung....kemas dapur? nope, aku tinggal jer biar maid buat (every Friday ada maid datang kemas umah, 6 hours jer)....So, dok tunggu maid siap kemas tingkat atas, aku dok bawah tul...

Ok guys, I'm back from Kelantan. I'll be in UUM till tomorrow afternoon. Malam nie kena buat kerja sikit sebab esok nak jumpa supervisor , dah tertunda kerja yang sepatutnya sebab balik Kelantan unexpected. My hubby is around so dia boleh teman stay-up, hehehe. Boleh ker stay-up? Dah ler tengah hari tadi makan ubat selsema, sepanjang perjalanan mengantuk tersengguk-sengguk. Sian my hubby drive sorang-sorang....

Pagi nie dapat berita yang ayah abe chik kat Kelate meninggal dunia. I haven't got the opportunity to visit him masa dia sakit since at the same time, I was admitted to do the D&C procedure. Nasib baik my hubby sempat jugak visit dia masa dia ada, my hubby balik naik flight. Since jenazah akan dikebumikan pukul 5.30 petang, we plan to go back to Kelantan today. I'm waiting for my hubby to fetch me at UUM. Sapa dia ayah abe chik to my hubby? Well, susah jugak nak explain but kesimpulannya, ayah abe chik nie dah jadi macam tok dia la. Masa dia kecik2 dulu, setiap kali raya dia & family akan balik umah ayah abe chik. Kira balik kampung la. My mum-in-law dijaga oleh ayah abe chik & isteri dia semenjak kecil. Itulah dipendekkan ceritanya. I'll be back tomorrow, terus ke UUM, insya-Allah. I supposed to meet my supervisor tomorrow & Thursday, to discuss about my work tapi insya-Allah I'll meet him on Thursday. Nak buat macam mana, unexpected thing happened in o...

Saya dah sampai UUM....Penat gak, first time pi UUM naik bas....My other half siap pesan, belajar rajin2....Kesian kat dia, dah ler kena tinggal so I have to do more work so that I can spend weekend with him....

Yesterday, we went to Sunway Carnival Mall again. This time with my bro, my sis-in-law, my nephew & nieces (remember the three 'little monsters'?)....Well, we had lunch together at BBQ Chicken. However, this time I forgot to snap pics on our main menus (lapar sangat, terus ngap jer). We tried different menus and it were delicious too.... I'm getting ready to go to UUM, packing and packing. Tak muat bag dah nie, because I'm the type of person yang memang suka bawak macam-macam, everything complete. Takpe, nak susun betul-betul lagi.... Ok guys, will update soon....Pics outing yesterday juga akan dikongsi kemudian, pics on gelagat my nephew & nieces time makan....

I have a long "To Do" list....Tak tau ler dapat buat semuanya ker tak....By the way, I managed to work on my research - searching more info on MeCD and MARA. Internet connection is not so good today, asyik hang jer. Tapi sempat jugak aku "skype" dengan my best buddy, Sabrina. Kesian kat dia, bermati-matian siapkan thesisnya. Hope that Jenny will spend her time to read my friend's thesis & be able to give some feedback. Sabrina, I know you can. Go girl.... Well, maybe akan outing today. Where? Not sure yet since it depends on my brother & my hubby. They will decide, sebab diorang yang akan drive. My mum always said, every weekend kami akan pi ukur shopping complex yang sama jer, hahaha....Nak buat macam mana, itu jer yang ada kat area sini.... Tomorrow, I'm off to Sintok & will be staying with my friend, Ila till Thursday or Friday. Hope that I can concentrate more on my work. Kesian gak nak tinggal my other half tido sorang-sorang tapi almaklum l...

I'm in the middle of preparing my proposal, still struggling....Entah bila la nak habis study nie, kata jer continue project yang lama tapi still redefining process tue amik masa....Ya Allah, bantulah hamba-Mu ini supaya dipermudahkan segala urusan setelah melalui semua (itupun kira sikit compared to orang lain) ujian-Mu selama ini.... So masa tengah stuck & supaya tak buat kerja dua kali, I'm organizing my working document supaya follow the thesis guideline provided by COB. So, dah format margin & spacing, typeface & font size and dah check how many words needed in preparing the proposal & to be graduated with a PhD. Mak oii, jauhnya pandangan....Anyway, it's good to prepare everything in order. To kawan-kawan yang sama-sama tengah struggle, marilah kita teruskan usaha, lipatgandakan usaha (peringatan untuk diri sendiri yang asyik malas & leka). Semoga kita semua akan success & bertemu kembali di tempat kerja (pening plak nanti dengan urusan pejabat...

Here we go....I would like to share several photos, taken on several occasions....The first and the most wonderful occasion was our lunch date @ Black Canyon, AEON Seberang Prai City. It was on my birthday. We ordered mushroom soup, spring rolls, cappucino, latte, Salmon Steak and Beef Steak. Guess what? Salmon Steak is the most expensive meal at Black Canyon but since it was my birthday & my hubby was the one who will pay for the bill so lantak la, order saja....Dah lama teringin nak makan Salmon Steak kat sini. Thanks honey, bebila belanja lagi (habis la aku next month, mesti dia belasah nak makan kat tempat lagi special masa birthday dia)....Masa ayah belanja, tak berani nak order Salmon steak sebab ayah pun cuma order fish steak jer, hehehe....So, enjoy the pics (kami berdua tengah gila amik gambar makanan kat tempat-tempat exclusive yang kami pi makan - exclusive tahap kami la).... Mushroom soup Spring rolls Salmon steak Beef steak Cafe Latte Cappucino Happy faces bila dah ken...

Today pi UUM, ada doctoral training. On the way back, singgah kat Sunway Carnival....Aktiviti pilihan selain window shopping adalah Thai massage...First time cuba, my hubby tak lelap kali nie...Menarik jugak, cuma tak snap gambar la. Lepas massage, rasa nak melayang.... Dinner - BBQ Chicken....Photos? Will update soon...

One of my scrapbooking work, specially made for Balqis Humayrah....

I should be in working mode now, masa makin suntuk nie....Tapi entah kenapa makin lama jalannya nampak makin sukar, the more I read, the more confius I become....Maya, ganbatte...Aja aja fighting....

Yesterday, my other half belanja lunch sempena my birthday. Where? Black Canyon @ AEON Seberang Prai City....Yummy & delicious....Akan diupdate apa menu yang kami pilih beserta photos soon...Yang penting, memang dapat la makan apa yang diidam-idamkan....Thank you very much sayang @ Chepok (nama timangan my hubby yang aku reka khusus, hihihi)....

Today is my 28th birthday. Praise to Allah s.w.t. sebab masih diberi kesempatan untuk terus hidup di muka bumi-Nya. Thanks mum & dad - without them, takkan lahirlah SUMAIYAH. Million thanks to my other half, the precious gift in my life - I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.... Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes & gifts... May Allah Bless all of you always...
