Alkisah malang

Tu MyVi busuk aku. Kena aniaya dek orang. 

It goes like this, last week on Thursday ( malam jumaat nii), on the way back from office to home cermin kena pecah dek peragut. 

Jalan nak masuk Ukay Perdana at MRR2 tu kan selalu jem amat, so at 8 pm, memang still banyak kereta lagi lining up at the traffic light tunggu for the light to go green. Aku pon antara kereta2 tu la, dan with radio on and tengah kunyah2 Mochi mahal sedap gilos sebagai buka pose, and air Gong Cha. Ye tu semua korang kena tahu walaupon tak penting. Sebab peragut tu jugak telah kill my appetite untuk buka pose. 

So while tengah minum air tu, tetiba dengar bunyi 'kraaaakkk'. Sumpah bunyi camtuh. Aku pandang passenger side, tengok cermin aku cracked. Tepi kereta aku ade motor. Orang atas motor tu tengah pandang aku. Pastu 'kraaaakkkk' lagi. Rupanye orang belakang motor tu tengah cuba pecahkan cermin ai T_T . Bila kali kedua die try tu baru aku sedar... "shitttt die orang nak amik beg aku." The thing is ade 2 beg kat tepi. Satu beg susu, which is on the floor of the passenger dan satu beg kosong yg tiada isi sebab semua isi i dah masukkan dalam beg pam susu . So die orang ingatkan beg kosong tu la kut ade rete untuk diambil. 

And my action next kinda surprised me. I jerit2 dalam kereta sambil tampar2 cermin kereta sendiri dan alih beg kosong tu kat riba aku. Orang atas motor kat depan tu dah gelabah. Agaknye pikir. Perempuan ni kenapa. Dah la cermin tu nak pecah ko nak tepuk lagi cermin tu. I agak hysterical time tu campo marah. Hahha. Then aku pikir balik tadek point aku tampar cermin. So aku tekan hon 2 3 kali. During that time, die orang try lagi pecah kan cermin 2 kali lagi. Ade lobang sikit tapi still susah die orang nak ambik beg. Bile aku dah tekan hon tu orang atas motor tu lagi gabra dan terus pecut. Gahh! Hanginnye ingat balik. Bile die dah pecut baru aku maca sedikit lega, dan try tengok boleh ke tak nampak nombor plat. Haram tadek. Kosong gelap je nampak. 

After that baru aku sedar I telah melanggar kereta Viva depan I. Probably masa gabra tu aku tertekan minyak and kena kereta depan. Lagi i pon i bukan jenis angkat handbrake masa traffic light. Orang dalam Viva tu keluar angin je. Tanye kenapa langgar die. I terangkan what had just happened and kereta belakang I pon datang nearer to explain what had just happened to the Viva. Orang at Viva tu baru la paham and sympathize. Aku pon tak boleh nak cakap ape. Sebab ape pon ko langgar die, still ko salah sebab ko langgar dari belakang. Muehehe. Naseb malang ni. 

Next step was to report to the police. Orang Viva ni tolong I buat report sama. Ingatkan die nak report pasal accident, but it turned out, he does not mind it and just teman I je buat report sebab he knows how it goes sebab rumah die pon baru kena pecah. Banyak nawww jenayah Malaysia ni. 

So memula I report to the police on duty, bla bla bla.. explain explained... then redo the whole thing again at the Forensic, ke bahagian Jenayah pula. Walau pon berpuasa tapi tak ingat lapar dah time tu. Stress and terkejut. Naseb baik dah makan mochi 3 biji. So explain to him and described the motorist looks like and all. Rupanye tempat tu memang prime spot la nak kena peragut. And of course mende camni kena bile kite tak aware sekeliling and I pon tak aware sibuk naw nak makan and tengok phone. You know next time this happened I will try to remember to snap the peragut gambar sebab I can see his face as clear as day. Also, police yang amik statement I tu handsome la. Hahahaha. Sempat. Mesti sempat sebab kite kena cari silver lining bile malang datang bergolek. Bile polis dah amik statement and amik gambar then I can go home. 

The next day I just tuka cermin and now nak cari kedai to tint again the window for security tint. And ladies, if you havent put security tint in, I suggest you do. I think it will take more than 4 or 5 try for the peragut to successfully pecahkan the cermin and in that time you can do what I did which is make some noise, or bantai peragut tu guna crowbar ( ini adalah angan-angan). In my case they didn't manage to take anything, but still with terlanggar kereta depan and pecah cermin kereta and nak beli tint baru, it is still a hefty loss. 

• I guess my advice is, don't leave any kind of bag at the seat, plastic/paper bag included. 
• If you are like me where a bag is necessary to have in the car and on the floor of the passenger, try to obstruct the view of the bag by putting something else on it. Macam yang sunscreen tu ke. 
• Go for security tint. 
• Be aware ( which I was not) when you are stopping. 
• I am putting my camera mode on next time. 

Finished 1 book!

Rejoiced!

I used to read at breakneck speed. When the last Harry Potter book came out, which is just a nice during the weekend, I holed up in my room and finished it in 12 hours. Intense.

During my semester break uni days, because no money so beggars can't be choosers, we went to the library.  By we I mean me , my mom and my 2 little brothers. So usually by the end of 2 weeks I had read all of my 5 books, and my mom 5. Brothers punye tak because children book meh.

Sekaranggg.... 2 bulan la nak habiskan Sophie's Choice. And it was an interesting read, it was a good book. Not great, but suspenseful, nicely writte, well drawn out characters and interesting issues. Issues of growing up, acceptance, sex, illnesses, wars. It is not a light read but it is not heavy either. 

I had always wanted to read Sophie's Choice, because pop culture references. Doesn't it drives you mad when people keep on quoting things you have no idea of. So this is why. I am surprised to find that I enjoyed it. And the book has a twist. It has a mystery on it. If pop culture have not ruined it, I would have enjoyed it more, but I guess this is why it was refer/quoted again and again. 

About the book? Oh it is about a young man living in a boardinghouse just after WW2 and met a couple, an Auschwitz survivor (Sophie) and her charismatic American boyfriend. The novel delves into their lives during that year, their relationship and Sophie story in Poland. 

Like I said, it was a good book. The characters are rich, flawed, beautifully thought out. Sophie is what we can be when we are faced with life toughest test, I think that is why she resonate so with so many readers. She is not heroic, not brave, not wise. She just try to live with what life had given her. 

So next book? Oh I am reading my Anne series. My comfort book. This time Anne House of Dreams. It is an apt book to read again after I had a baby. Don't you find after sometimes, movies or books that you had watched/read before 5 or 10 or 20 years ago felt differently when you read it again? 

Selfie

The top above yang I made in Vietnam that the tailor did not make as I wanted it to be made  it was suppose to be longer tapi I brought it to be altered to shorten a bit.

Tapi not to my specifications pon I still like wearing it. Ok. Nak gi shopping kat Global Indian Festival lak.

My 10 mo old boy

Who is sooooo making her mommy nerves on edge semalam sebab tanak tidur and if he nak tidur pon, atas mommy and ME being ME who is all alone with no help ( maid? what maid... she went out with her friends from morning till maghrib all weekend) aku rase nak cekik semua orang.

Anyway, aside from that... he is growing up.. to be what.. I dont know yet. Somewhat clingy, demanding, knows what he wants, like Game of Thrones song. ( sorry, I can't help it, I love that soundtrack, but I let him watch the series, when.. hmm.. maybe he is starting college? )

Last weekend swim. Comel sangat kan. (jawabbb yeee)

So what is up with him.

He is 10 month today! 2 more months and he will be my tiny tots. No longer my tiny baby. Sedih!

He already have 2 teeth at his bottom, it is the cutest thing and he likes using my hand as teether. Sekarang rase geli2 la kan, tunggu la nanti bile dah fully grown. 

He can stand! And he stands up so proudly looking at his mommy and sengih besar sambil kepak2 tangan expecting applause and smiles and hugs afterwards. Again. The cutest thing ever!

Gambar ni blurry. Saya tahu. Just wanna shows how excited he is standing up.

I am still feeding him bubur, but with new teeth, maybe nasi and lauk next. As long as his hopeless mother can masak rice just right. Tah hape2 la mak die ni. 

He still likes Taylor Swift. The duration I can mandi is as long as Taylor Swift videoclip played. I am thinking to introduce him to Barney next because I notice he likes the songs, but not so much cartoons. My nephew and niece grew up on Barney and they seems to have awesome vocab, so why not la. He also likes the Game of Thrones theme song. I used that to stop him crying. 

Die loves cat. If I sepahkan his mainan on the floor, he played with it for a few minutes or just whack some once or twice then proceed to crawl to the corner when I simpan the mainan kucing and proceed to main with the cats. Sometimes I think it is more beneficial for all of us (bulus included) to just buy cat toys instead of kid toys. 

The cats love it. If he started to go there, those 3 will come near sebab tahu dah .. playtime!

He can be very demanding. Before sleeping nak orang urut2 dengan vicks and minyak yuyi. I know this because I try to get him to sleep, but he refused and then nangis2 sambil tarik2 rambut. Stress taw bile die buat camni. 

He is already in FM starting from last month, so I BF him till he was around 9 mo. Ok la tu. He is still BF ing by the way, but the FM is only supplementary at the moment. Memula try to introduce him to Isomil kut. I pon tak ingat. He hates it. He nangis-nangis tepis. So we bought Karihome ( the susu kambing for babies ni) and tested him on it and he likes it. Fininshed 8 oz at one go. Banyak. I tested Karihome tu sikit and it tasted like EBM a bit. No wonder la. 

Well.. theres a lot of other things la he can do but mommy kena continue buat defects fix. So later la. A step close to tots. So sad, but at the same time, grow up faster because he is soooo clingyyyy. 

Perihal Bulus

Dah lama tak berbual pasal bulus2 can. Tapi unless kalau die orang sakit ke or ade ape2 spectacular is happening, tadek sangat pon yang lain dari yang lain untuk diceritakan. 

Oh cuma satu yang buat aku angin dengan Bobby 

Jangan ingat muka inesen di atas tu tiada dosa. Die I notice sejak 2 menjak ni, duk spray2 kencing sikit2 kat keliling rumah. Kalaauuu macam Fasha dulu at least kat dinding , atau lantai, sonang je dilap. Ni kat sofa okeeehh.. dengan ade sekali tu kat almari buku, tapi sempat aku lempar  barang sebelom die buat. Haih la. 

Husband asked the vet, tanye tu marking ke. Vet cakap kalau dah neutered tu impossible untuk marking. Hurmph. But he does not pee, more like mark with pee kut. Adoi la kan. Now sekarang I am using the Urine Off to see if he will do it again. Babap bobby ni, memula dulu die buat camtuh, pastu die punye solution die is to let him out once in a while sebab die tension tak boleh keluar rumah, tapi I can't let him out bile weekdays. Maybe die tension sebab Orangina asyik masuk rumah, so I tak kasi sangat Orangina masuk. 

Oh kucing oren ni kan kite panggil Orangina. 

Dengan tak malunye hijack tuan rumah punye Hello Kitty jadikan rete die. 

Orangina ni memula ingatkan betina kan, sekali jantan. Die selalu nak masuk dalam rumah, kadang2 tak larat/sempat nak halang terus die masuk die gi perabiskan makanan kekucing ni. Pas makan berak sekali, berak cair pulak tu. Kan dah bawak die pegi vaccine sebab selalu sangat die masuk and makan kat rumah ni, and memerut dalam litterbox. Jumaat ni I bawak untuk followup lak. 

Memula Gollywolly and die suke2 gak main, but sekarang macam Wolly tak suke dah Orangina ni. Selalu kena belasah. So Orangina ni selalu ikut gi rumah my sister which have another male kitten there. Kitten ni dah besar gak la. More like teen cat. So sekarang Orangina and Asad ( that is my sister cat), macam best friend. Whenever Orangina datang, Asad will come out happily to play kejar-kejar and wrestle each other to the ground. So oklah ade geng. Kalu tak Asad tu rupa depress je . 

Over sangat ayu gamba ni. Lempang sikit kang. 

Kurap ni nampak sungguh la macam kucing yang feminin dan ayu. Tapi gangster ok. If I let her out in the weekend, kadang2 die akan pergi to my sister house 2 house down tu. Kurap and I kan used to live there, so to her macam second home la gak. So sekarang die emo je, datang2 ade kucing jantan ni bermaharajalela. Yang Asad pulak stress, agaknye pikir kenapa la kucing gemok ni sesuka hati je masuk rumah die and lempang die kan. Haha. Teruk taw Kurap ni. Masuk2 rumah my kakak, she will go in bau2 sikit, then terus cari Asad untuk dibelasah. Troma la kucing tu. Weekend je nanti die duk ketar2 dalam bilik maid tanak keluar kenkadang. Tak jantan tulll. 

Gollywolly ni tadek masalah sangat, cuma sekarang die pon suke ikut me and Ajis pergi rumah kakak. She wants to play with Asad too, cuma Asad agaknye troma kena belasah dengan Kurap, tanak geng dengan Wolly ni. Tapi die manja la, and she likes to selet2 her wet nose to kat kaki orang menyebabkan orang duk jerit "geli tahu taaakkkk... jangan laa"

Oh and I rase Bobby tension sebab kucing2 stray kenkadang datang depan rumah nak makan kan, so I let them be. Bobby rase tercabar kut, eleehhhh Bobby. Satu rumah ni ko punye, banyak naw songeh nak lepaskan geram kat sofa pulak kan. Jentik hidung tu. One of the cats that keep on coming is this one. 

Gollywolly tengok je

I panggil die Oliver Twist sebab selalu tunggud depan gate mintak makanan. Memula tetiap malam datang mintak makan. Tadek collar, badan berbau, fur kasar, then baru2 ni datang balik, tetap jugak mintak makan, ade collar dan fur dah lawa. Lagi sikit aku dah nak letak die for adoption kan, pantang je orang tu tak jadi. 

Actually not too sure if sebelom ni ade owner ke tak, tapi aku assume je stray tengok keadaan and kurus wehhh. Kalau die ade owner pon, owner die macam bagi makan tak cukup. Hurmph. 

Ni baru siang dapat tangkap gamba die sekali, tengok la kan. Nampak macam tak terurus. And nampak kurus. Makan selalu habis lak tu Pro Diet aku. Hish. Nak aje selitkan note kat collar kucing tu suruh die jaga leklok atau aku bagi orang. Tapi nanti kang die kurung tak bagi makanan lagi haru la plak. So how now brown cow. 

Setelah sekian lama, goodbye DiGi

I had been a loyal customer of DiGi from 2000 /2001. I can't remember. Back in those days, phone are gile expensive and beli line sama jugak cekik darahnye. My first phone the banana nokia was actually given by my then bf. He got sick of calling me through my friends and bought me a phone because I told him I don't think so I need a phone. Hahaha. Sekarang dah phone addicted kan. I cerita to my husband that and he just looked glum ( as his usual looks when I told him of my ex bfs which is honestly I don't tell much laaa .. considering my ex bfs... ) . 

Anyway the then bf gave me the phone but told me I need to get my own line. Pffttt. Well, I remembered then Maxis you need to pay more than RM200 to get the prepaid. Almost RM300 kut, and DiGi was RM159. I went with the cheaper one. Why not other telco at the time? At that time, UTP masih diconsider as kawasan jin tendang, and Maxis, you can get almost full bar there, but for DiGi if you prop your handphone right at the katil or cabinet tepi katil in the hostel, you can get 1 or 2 bar of line. Haha. Boleh la tu. 

Fuh I remember that time when sms was RM0.20 sen a piece and we were very concerned on how much a minute cost per call. Sekarang guna whatsapp je kan. Sape je lagi still using SMS ni. Then bile nak bergayut semua yang line DiGi ni, selalu kena keluar bilik to get a clear line. Come to think of it, that is what is currently happening to those using DiGi in Bukit Antarabangsa kut sekarang in 2013. Dalam bilik tingkat atas je dapat line. Selain tu, no call zone unless you keluar rumah. Setiap kali I nak call orang I kena to be in my room or go outside. And I had been living with that for years. Calling them to complain or help? Tadek guna ok, they will blame the phone, saying it is the phone fault when in fact we had tukar more than 5 phones with same result. Ye la kan, orang call center ni they have a certain dialogue. These are mostly not real support person, they are just there to placate the customer with placebo in term of dialogue. 

Husband gotten annoyed of never being able to call me, so he said let's tukar la. So we tukar to Maxis. Warily. We had heard numerous horror stories of Maxis where they are rampantly overcharging their customers macam customers die orang ni berak duit. I know those who had been overcharged near RM20k.  So of course we are very concerned but I know of people who say they never have those issues and praised Maxis to the sky, ( okay tipu, cuma cakap Maxis is good la). So we are hoping to be the latter. 

So, goodbye DiGi. It had been more than 10 years. Many a sleepless night had been have because of your service. And to be honest, I hardly felt the difference pon bile tukar, cuma every few days duk check data usage. Mestiiiiii. 

1st Mother's Day as Mom

.. which amount to nothing sebab cam biasa je hari tu. Ooo. I did cook pho that Sunday. It does not fail spectacularly, so that is a big win. Haha. I kinda overdid the fish sauce a bit, and lessen the cooking time from 2 hour to an hour and a half. My brother in law helpfully gave his critic , haha, saying maybe the cooking time should not be lessen. Well then... maybe another time I will attempt again the pho, 

Tapi siang tu, I brought little Ajis to the swimming pool at the clubhouse. My sister punye clubhouse la. I punye clubhouse probably is the sungai/longkang besar depan rumah itu. 

I tak turun pool sebab I don't have the appropriate apparel, so husband la yang played with him in the water. And he loves it. The way he moves in the water macam kalau lepaskan dah boleh kuak2 macam katak. Haha. But we did that once, with him wearing pelampung di lengan, dan die tenggelam sikit and cry. Wahaha. Nak advanced sangat parents Ajis ni

But he does not love it as much when being put in this position (as shown below) in the water. Muka cuhakkk.

Then afterwards we put in dalam.. boyar.. or you people called it pelampung for baby/toddlers. Suke weh, kaki die eksaited je kuak2, die tepuk2 boyar tu. Die rasa macam die dalam walker kut. Lagi2 ada abang2 cousin die tu push him around in there.

Basically Ajis had a blast. Balik je terus nak pengsan membuta. Haha. He slept for around 3 hours tengahhari tu, which is untuk anak aku tu adalah sangat marvelous la.

So maybe we can make it an almost weekly thing for him since he enjoyed it so much. Better pon, as dah beli baju mandi pon untuk die tu. Hehehe.

Mak die pon nak join gak. I don't know how to swim, so my sister ajak I gi kelas swimming as they have classes. Tempting kan. Tadekle keje tetiap minggu nak gi Ikea/KLCC/Wangsa Walk melebarkan badan je kan. Tengok la guano.

Ape lagi mahu

Honestly. The newspaper dekat country ni macam tadek conscience kan. Rase macam nak carik2 editor yang approve all these headlines today. I am not sure what they are trying to gain but they are treading in dangerous water. 

That being said, I am gonna say this, schools should not be segregated according to race. While any races can enter the vernacular school, but the channel is left wide open for segregation. Then nak pelik kenapa racism berlaku. I don't understand the need of vernacular school. If they really want it, then make it like sekolah agama la. An optional school, after you had attended a 1Malaysia school that is attended by all races equally. Bebudak johor boleh je juggle 2 school hari-hari, so ok what. Semua happy. But no... these people want to make education as their political agenda, then nak pelik why we have a long way to go as 1 Malaysia. 

Wow is this my most serious post in a while kan. Tee hee

Ok this topic is kinda reprehensible, so I am gonna stop here. Also I sangat mengantuk. Also jari ai sakit nak taip banyak2. I slept on my finger (that sounds weirdd), but it happens and now the finger is all kind of cramps and achey. 

Oh ye. Husband is back for a while for a meeting. So hurray! Dengan itu I nak pujuk die pegi Pavilion sebab I nak squid ink pasta weekend ni. 

Ending this post with this picture. Sekarang ni Bobby suke pulak ngendeng2 kat Ajis. Pantang la pintu bilik tu bukak mesti nak masuk nak join jadi baby sekali.

Update before election ( tapi tak cite pasal election )

Husband is back at Turkmenistan. Honestly with a cranky baby, unpredictable work environment, I am seriously considering going with him there. He transferred to the capital of Turkmenistan which is much more better than the camp he is living in now, tapi much better for him la, for me? Dan boleh ke bawak Kuwap? 

Ajis cakap undilah saya untuk parti segitiga untuk kebahagian bersama. 

I cut his hair. More like ask husband to bring him to barber to shave his head. Not fully botak la, but I wanted to curb his bad habit of pulling his hair bile die tension. Kecik2 dah ade bad habit. Babap die. Ni sekarang if he wants to pull his hair, he will feel it and then garu2 je scalp die. Haha. Kesian. I miss his curls la. Ni nampak notti. 

Ajis baby had a mild case of croup recently which made him a crankier than usual. Kesian semalam kena marah dengan mommy. Sebab mommy pon sama sakit, but he is a sweet baby cuma extra clingy bile kat rumah. I told him many times, nanti dah masuk sekolah menengah I will remind him of how he will hollers if I move away more than 10 cm from him. I think I also need to remind myself that once he grows up he will no longer need me as now, tapi penat la mommyyy. 

Ni nak kena adjust balik my day to day after dah comfortable husband tolong me around the house. Fuhh. Oh and I got my period back. And yeps, susu dropped. Sigh. Dah la stok memang merundum pon sejak 2 menjak ni, but most probably because the coming of my period kut, so I guess memang quite soon gak la Ajis will be given formula. But I will try to pump more at least until he have gotten over his croup and cough. But hey, 9 months ( he will be 9 by the end of this week), is quite an achievement ( cuba kalau buat statement macam ni kat forum or group breastfeeding mother, maw kena sedas ). So yeah, I am fine with that. 

As for the catss. 

Ajis trying to get a handful of Kurap fur. 

I am trying to persuade Kurap if she is in the room to sleep on the floor. Tapi dah biasa tidur atas katil kan, die emo laaa kena letak bawah. Haish. With Ajis cough malas pulak nak take risk for it to worsen, also Ajis now have become more naughty and always try to take a handful of the cat fur. Tak pernah kena cakar lagi kan. Actually ade je, tapi kid being kid unless it really hurts kut they will stop. Gollywolly will move away, Bobby are not interested in being near him but Kurap who is biasa to be near me, now tension je bulu kena tarik dek budak botak ni. Kalau beli pet bed letak kat bilik Kurap maw ke? 

Oh and the neighbour cat is macam our cat je. Most of the time he is here. Of the cat is a HE. Only now I can see his balls. Huh. No wonder Bobby don't like it. 

Eh, husband dubbed him Orangina. Well at first ingatkan female cat. Lantak ko la Gina, terima je la nama tu. We took him for vaccine sebab he always dart in the house and eats the cat food and sometimes use their litterbox. But for now he is living in front of the house and sleeping on my rak kasut. We had been adopted by him even though jiran aku kutip die. There is no other way about it. Ah well, at least it is easier to take him to the vet to be spayed bile die besa nanti. He is still thin but I think it is normal. He thinks Ajis boy is a cat because he always pounce on Ajis when Ajis is crawling around. And he is best friend with Gollywolly. The other cats tolerate him bile they mood strikes. 

The thing is because we are feeding him in front of the house and just leave the food there, the other strays are starting to come. And kalau datang je takpe, ni leave their marks. Haih la weh, tak baik susahkan orang bagi makan ok kekucing. Haha. Ah well. Bile got time and pics, I will show the pics of the other guests that came from time to time. Tapi tak sampai hati la kan nak buang or halau. They wanna eat pon, bukan buat ape. ( except sometimes sprayed around the front yard) I am seriously considering chucking my rak kasut or make it really high). 

Oh and re the upcoming election. I am seriously disgusted by the tactics of some party to garner votes, but considering what I had been reading and watching on election in other countries, I guess politics is a dirty game. Tapi macam orang tadek agama pulak ye if you can show video lucah at political rally without any shame. How this people live with their self I don't know. And I can't wait for it to be over too because the abundance of political sharing related video and articles is really boring. I want my FB timeline back to its Shaklee, babies, TV3s drama live update statuses ok.

We went to Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh

I think long time readers here ( ade lagi ke) may remembered I had already went there a couple of times. This time I want to shop. But bringing in baby also hampered a bit of shopping, but not by much. Baby Aziz had been a delight that he deserved several smacks and cute embroidered clothes for his trouble. But I am getting ahead of my post.

Before we go to Vietnam, which is on Thursday last 2 weeks, mak die and anak die baru la terkedek2 nak buat passport on Monday. Nasib baik la gak I opt to wait for husband because passport baby punye process goes something like

"passport ni nak ikut mak ke ayah. Kalau mak sehari je kalau ayah 5 hari."
Kite orang mesti la nak amik mudah cakap mak. Sekali nasib baik die bagi ayat seterusnye
"then kalau ikut passport mak, anak ni tak boleh dah dapat ape2 keistimewaan yang orang Sarawak dapat, e.g. biasiswa, pembelian tanah di Sarawah, penurunan harta"..

Woooooooo. So we decided baby passport ikut ayah die. The process is not that complicated, isi extra borang with photostat copy of IC by the father, and father signature then need approval from Kuching. The approval takes around 4 - 5 days. But of course that does not work for us, so they said we can appeal it by faxing to Sarawak office our flight itinerary and asking for a speedy approval. It took just 2 day. Monday sent, Tuesday husband telefon 20x and got it. Hehe. My husband is persistent. Harapkan mak die memang lama la kut. So we can go to Vietnam that Thursday!

At Vietnam we stayed at Bong Sen hotel at Dong Khoi street. I chose this rather than the popular Bin Thanh area because I know the area as my family had stay around here before. So it is easier to move around. I would think my choice was apt because I love staying here. It is nice to walk around, halal restaurants are just a stone throw away.

My hotel was great. It was comfy, clean, well kept, bathroom was nice and even have those extra amenities , like toothbrush and toothpaste. I stay in Sheraton Kuching baru2 ni pon takdak ok. It is those extra things that counts. I would most definitely stay here next time. Breakfast of koz la non halal, but there is plenty of breads and cereal and fruits and salads to keep hunger at bay. Dan I was fantastically full everytime breakfast pon.

Omelette during breakfast. I really enjoy their coffee. Sodap,  kona dengan tekak den. 

And the Halal restaurants we went too.

We can't get adventurous in Ho Chi Minh, well because I don't fancy getting food poisoning with baby, also because there is limited what halal food you can obtained.

Our breakfast is at the hotel.

Lunch is usually around Bin Thanh area, which the first restaurant named Kg Melayu I think is just ok, and the Warung 1Malaysia ( ko jangan, kat Vietnam pon 1Malaysia), is nice except don't order the sweet sour or the sotong or both! But the soup there is very nice. Another time during lunch we just ordered cakes at Gloria Jeans which is a MISTAKE because DILA when will you ever learn cakes in coffee shops are never good.

Dinner we went around Dong Khoi area, Halal Saigon the first and last night, D'Nyonya the second night and a Turkish restaurant which I suke sangat virgin mojito die. And the kebab is nice too.

These are mostly dinner food pics. Lunch we got our hand full with little Ajis yang asyik tunjuk perut seksi die tu. 

Halal Saigon food was pretty good nothing too great tapi sedap la di perut. D'Nyonya was so and so.

I somehow without realizing ordered Pho in D'Nyonya. It was nice enough, but it is distracting to eat a soupy noodle with a struggling baby. 

Most of these restaurants are pretty expensive as we are in the tourist district so if you guys go there make sure you calculate betul2 the meal in RM before ordering. All those 00000s in VietDong is pretty heady and confusing.

What we see

Ajis tidur afterwards so boleh tengok photographs bebetul. 

Not much. Like I said before I had been here before. I suggested to husband if he wanted to go to Chuchi Tunnel, but he said no because he does not want to take the risk of a temperamental baby there. So I ajak him to go to War Remnants Museum only.

Aside from that jalan-jalan area Ho Chi Minh is quite a good way to spend the time too.

Where we shop

Honestly not much too.

One of the bag I bought, I like this bag. It is biggg.  Kenapa gamba ni tak centered? Shut up

I bought few bags, but I think you'll fare better if you wanna buy a lot, go to the other shops around Bin Thanh. However there are more choices in Bin Thanh, which is why I bought there, but bile nak pegi the other place, dah malas pulak, because the shops outside Bin Thanh, while cheaper, only 1 or 2 design is kinda ok to me, lain2 macam so so.

Baju smocking for little girls, is cheap in Bin Thanh. Go deeper in the market to get the best price. They are much more incline to give discount if you buy more so if you beli 1 agak2 la kalau nak tawar menawar tu kan berapa banyak you wanna discount. I bought some for the nieces. Ajis of course la not smocking gown, but we bought him a cute embroidered coverall for him. Embroidered cloths are big in Vietnam, but I already have a few embroidered tablecloths dari long  time ago and I very rarely entertain so tak kose nak menambah.

Ape lagi ek, oh for baju kurung, I memang dah aim Hong Anh je, nowhere else. Maybe there are other places who sells good quality and pretty baju kurung, but I didn't go around and see but I had always before like and am satisfied with their baju kurung so malas to see around and just aim there. Hong Anh is not cheap compare to other places in HCM, tapi bile ko dah bandingkan dengan harga baju kurung yang sama kualiti dijual here, sangat2 la cheap weh. Dengan itu aku amik 3 sekaligus, and bought one for my MIL and one baju melayu kecik comel untuk Ajis boy untuk raya kelak.

Other than that, I didn't buy kain sebab kain kat rumah tu dah melambak dah. Ops, I only bought kain for blouse to be made here. Dan menangislah aku sebab dengan bodohnye I didn't bring a sample blouse for them, so they can copy it, instead just ask them to ukur and just make according to the blouse I was wearing that day. The result was not pretty. Menangis aiii okehh. Eh tak nangis lah, tapi cukup la untuk bad mood. Agak kebangangan jugak kan, I asked for blouse simple straight cut just like the one I am wearing, die orang pegi buat ala2 gaya peplum tapi lebih kepada kemakcikan. Nangis dalam hati je la, sebab diri sendiri salah tapi still berbakul jugak la kalau boleh aku nak maki. So those who wants to make blouse BRING SAMPLE. Penat je cari kain kat Bin Thanh, nanti tailor sana butchered your baju. They can make simple baju kurung, but go lebih sikit je memang out of their comfort zone, tu yang kain aku tu jadi practice sewing kut.

Other stuffs,  bought some other stuffs not worth mentioning, oh maybe one. A lacquer painting reproduction of Gustav Klimt  'The Kiss', because I love that painting. It sold for 20 USD but I manage to buy it for 15 USD sebab I pointed that there is a small chip here and there. Hehe. Boleh ko taknak tawar menawar dengan aku, so I pointed la what is wrong with your product.

Once I entered a shop near Bin Thanh, I looked at one of the dusty bags they displayed outside and asked the price, thinking maybe it is below 10 usd because honestly, the bag seen better day. Boleh die quote aku USD20. I just laughed at his face and walk away while he quickly adjusted his price from 20usd to 2usd. 2 USD kauu... but I tadek mood nak beli from guys quoting price that is daylight robbery pon.

In summary, where we go to shop pon is primarily Bin Thanh, Saigon Square, Saigon Tax , shops around HCM la.

Ade Loubotin ok the street hotel aku tu. Tapi aku tak masuk. 

Bin Thanh - good for cheap items, but i think yang betul murah is kain and clothes. Other tu especially souvenir items, I don't think so Bin Than is the place. They are very aggressive sellers, if you taknak tengok sometimes they take offense, macam ade 1 place tu, I memang nak beli the MNG knockoff clothes they are selling, but they refuse to tell me the price. They cakap, they cari my kaler and bukak packaging dulu baru nak bagi tahu price. Of course la kan if they do that we feels obligated to buy kan even if they said no, I asked repeatedly but they still do not want to give, so annoying. Then dedua la annoyed with each other. Honestly if you can't stand the hassle, Saigon Square is the best place for you to buy clothes. But I think mostly the tshirt sellers yang I perasan very aggressive  other sellers like the children clothes, kain, table clothes are not that aggressive. So we tried to steer clear away from them.

Saigon Square - There are 2, but you can opt to go to the one in front of Bin Thanh, they sell the same things, but things are not that oppressive, the sellers not that aggressive. I did go to the Saigon Square 2 and found a nice palazzo pants made of silk that I didn't found anywhere else, so I guess it is a worthy trip for me, but not too much items or a bargain you can get there.

Saigon Tax - These are for the tourists who malas to go in Bin Thanh, you can get somewhat more of the same things, and the price is ok too, but like I said old design. There is a supermarket in there.

Owh and we bought our souvenirs at a gift shop in the War Remnants museum. Cheaper from the discounted price we got at other place. Tapi ni souvenirs biasa je2 la like fridge magnets, and hat and bookmarks.

I didn't manage to go to the pasar malam at Bin Thanh, I heard lagi2 la murah, but with baby in tow I kesian la pulak nak bawak so I rather not. Usually nighttime we just jalan2 around the hotel je. Lagi pon bile dah petang I usually go back to hotel and let Ajis sleeps comfortably, so bile die bangun time dekat2 dinner tadekla die emo sangat.

Apakah konklusi ni: Tak tahu la, I bought some but not a lot, but tadekla serik to go again. I always like Ho Chi Minh, so yeah, kalau my family decided to go I might tag along too!

50 books to read before you die

Husband bought a bookmark that listed down 50 books to read before you die. Out of all I only counted 14 I had read. Barely a quarter.

I am not sure I must read it all. There are other books that are equally delightful. Life is too short to have a list.

Aziz is 8 months today!

Budak nakal yang nowadays semua mende nak masuk mulut. He had almost eaten 2 of keyboard keys. Manage to pry out a receipt from his mouth recently.

Oh and he boleh merangkak dgn cara yang betul tapi totally cartoonish way 

Ape lagi... mummy die tak ingat sebab bz gilos ni. Which is why I have not been updating about the cats sebab the cats need moar pics in blog.

Back to work bebehhhh.

Blur moment

I was in an one on one meeting with a manager . Ini manager mat salleh from a European country so.. yeah accent sedikit kuat.

We start the meeting by introducing myself and I told a bit about my baby. Then it was his turn and he said..

" as you know , I'm Gaayy."

I was speechless for about 10 secs while my mind was going... "okkkkkk... I am not sure why he is telling me that".

Then after he seen me silent for a while, he went on.. "yups.. I am gregory...".

Penat aku tahan gelak. Yela kan. Why the hell would people want to say that to their employees out of the blue. Telinga pokak.

I am now laughing about this with my colleague.

Sometimes the best things in life is expensive

My expensive (for me la) lunch. Aku suke sangat O briens. Their bread is awesome and before this I ordered their salmon sandwich yg slathered with cream cheese and I fell out of love. Cheese is not meant to be eaten with salmon kut. It absolutely killed the taste.

So I ordered my favorite sandwich which is the sundried tomato one with ciabatta bread and my faith in O Briens had been restored. That great tomato taste which imo opinion most probably oven baked rather than sundried but hey with pollution level nowadays I am not complaining. Kemudian the cheese that goes into this sandwich just mesh well la. It is sticky gooey but not creamy. Just as I like it . Also makan apple pie which is not so great tapi tak kesah la. So this whole post is about a sandwich.  No wonder I tombam.

Update bulan March!

Kamon Dila jangan malas.

Last month sangatlah busy , selalu balik lewat. Fuh. Kenkadang kesian dengan anak. Takut die tak kenal mak pon ye jugak. Dah la bapak nye memang senantiasa tiada, ni mak pon selalu tadek sebab keje. Bulan lepas punye busy, balik rumah kul 9, makan, amik anak dari rumah akak, then tidurkan Ajis which usually die akan lena dalam 11.30 then sambung balik buat keje sampai kul 2 a.m. 

Lagi2 Ajis dah start makan, lagi la lewat tidur as I will cook his food so besok my maid will just panaskan je. I don't want her to cook because I had tasted her cooking and it is sooo salty. And I don't trust her to listen to me (because she usually don't) also it is always best food being cooked by mom itself no matter how simple or terrible. 

My waktu tidur nowadays is 3 a.m. I have no idea how time went by so fast. There were times I cried. Times I feel like I did not get enough support from my maid ( who is lazy as hell ), from my husband and yes I sometimes blame my infant son for not being supportive of mommy. However I am glad I live near my sister, I don't cook so I went to her house. As I don't trust my maid who is not a bad sort, only lazy and don't have a lot of common sense, I sent her to my sister house so at least there is another pair of eyes. She don't approve of this. However after I had told her many times the lantai at rumah needs mopping every day and she still don't do what I say, I don't think so I can trust her on other stuffs, when even things like mop rumah pon setelah berkali-kali diberitahu she can't do. She lied too, saying she did, when I know exactly that pieces of crumbs at the kitchen had been there for 2 days. Sigh. Maid. Hate em, but can't' live without em. However I am trying to find a way to live without em and aside from taking care of my kid, I honestly think I can because she does nothing else. I told my husband after her 1 year is up, sent her back. But by sending her back, I also do not know what other choices I have. Sigh. But I don't think so I can deal with maids again.

Ok. Sesi meluahkan perasaan sudah habis.

Now about Ajis. 

Tengah tengok makcik2 berbual sambil makan biskut

I think the last time I updated he baru nak golek. Hoi sekarang dah merangkak ok. Merangkak komando style la. But recently he had used his knees a lot. 

His uncle called him ulat bulu besar. And yes, his hair is like a toupee kan. Dr Vernon (his paed) , mentioned that he have Julius Caesar hair. 

Gambar malam tadi. Excuse the mess, mummy  die memang begitu.  Montelnye perut anak akuu. 

Herm... can't see it from this pic, but when he is at his naughtiest and his curl is all over the place, he does look like a mini Julius Caesar. Haha. 

He is not that fussy anymore selepas tahu merangkak. Can sleep easily nowadays, he will guling2 and sometimes I layan him, sing2 or ask him about stuffs, he loved it for approx 5 mins but then prefer to paling his muka to the other side ( tak ngadap mak la) macam die dah "ok enough lovin2 time Ajis wants some me time", then he babbles2 sendiri then tido. 

He lovess cats. He will tarik the ekor, telinga and bulu. So far the cats buat bodo je, but don't push your luck la kan. I always tell him no, but I wonder if knows what 'No' meant. But I also do not want to totally separate him and the cats so both will be familiar with each other. My sister pon sekarang have a cat, and if Ajis saw the cat he will merangkak to him so fast. 

Sibuk nak kejar si Asad tu ( Asad is the cat la)

As for food, I am cooking him bubur every day. Currently the menu is bubur + sup ayam + sayur2 puree or bubur + sup ikan tenggiri + sayur2 puree or bubur + sweet potato & raisin puree + ikan bilis. Sonang. Ikan pon setakat ni, ikan tenggiri je laa anak ye. Salmon cekik darah kut. Ikan tenggiri pon rase nak jerut leher tengok harga.

So food die penuh la dengan protein and carbs and not too much sayur. Pastu memang laaa anak tu nangis-nangis last weekend memerut. Kesian, berak taik keras. So now I also pesan my maid, after his food, he have to eat the fruits I provided. Sometimes it just betik yang dah dimash2 by maid or other fruit puree like mango and pear. Anak aku ni memang nganga je bile orang suap, so sekarang ni memang die tadek preference. Senang nak prepare makan. Tengok je la perut kat atas kan...

I was thinking to buy a slow cooker, tapi tak beli2 lagi takut membazir, also sebab nak tunggu husband ai balik la. Haha. Slow cooker pon kedekut nak beli, but itu la. I think it would be easier, because I don't have to cook things separately la. Tengok la wehh. Banyak je mende nak kena beli ni bile dah ade anak. Mak nye nak tengok baju kat poplook pon tak tengok2 lagi. 

Tapi kan sebab poplook ni pemes sangat ramai sangat orang ade the same baju. I try ordering from other online shop, gua beli size L kut, kecik dan senteng ok! Kecik tu ok lagi, tapi aku ni dah size S dah, kenapa baju tu senteng? What I like about poplook is because the model is my size, so aku boleh agak bile see the baju if it fits me or not. Ni kalau model tu yg anorexic diperagakan oleh Eastern European model, agak susah la aku nak imagine how the baju look on me. Yes, yes ukuran ade. Tapi rajin sangat ke aku ni nak ukur lilit diri sendiri. 

Eh, nanti I update about the cats pulak. No major updates pon for the cats. Semua sihat belaka. 

Cloud Atlas

Saw it finally after I was excited seeing the trailer masa I pregnant dulu. Kenapa I excited... sebab ade Jim Sturgess laa. 

You should watch One Day, then read the book. The film is not all that, but the book... I don't know why, but there is something about British writers that I love. They don't pander. They get the story out, and still hit all the emotional notes. And One Day is a beautful story of friendship and love and life. It is predictable, but I love it nonetheless. Hoi baca je la One Day tu ok. 

And whyyyyy. Kenapa melalut cerita pasal One Day, tapi tajuk Cloud Atlas. Melalut kejab sebab Jim Sturgess is wonderful. He is my new James McAvoy. 

This film is around 3 hours. It took me 2 days as my free days is not as it is before. Heh. I heard that Cloud Atlas is a monster of a book. The story spans centuries, past , present and future. From 1849 to 2321. There are 6 stories in them. If not all, almost most of the actors have some roles in each stories, big or small. 

The one that is most memorable to me is the Sonmi story ( Jim Sturgess is an Asian! He kicks ass! He is romantic! Hellooooo ) and the Cambridge story. Sonmi story is wonderfully futuristic, lovely and sad. The action and set and effects is typical Wachowski. But the Cambridge story is about the life of a n impoverished musician, his love for a man is the one that moved me. I never care much about LGBT stories as I can't relate to it and I don't have any strong opinion on it ether. But this particular love story. Maybe it is the actors, but my heart breaks for them that it don't for others. If the other stories (some are yawn-ish, some are lovely and riveting), this one.. bring it home. 

I am itching to read the book because I don't get it. Tapi I don't think so I will read it. There are other books! Many others to be read! Anyway below are the observations and questions I had when I watch Cloud Atlas area. 

(Spoiler to those who cares)

Why Frobisher kill himself? I don't get it? 

Why is Sonmi is important? Exactly how did Gen Chang knows she is ? 

Why people choose to listen to  her? I don't get Sonmi. 

Why Cavendish brother locked him in nursing home? I don't get it. 

Isaac Sachs storyline into Luisa Rey is completely pointless. 

When Cavendish yells out "Soylent Green is people" in his storyline, I am not at all surprised on how the Sonmi story pan out. 

Sonmi and Gen Chang love story is cute and lovely and tragic, but Bae Doona made it so. Jim Sturgess I am sorry to say, can be turn into a mannequin for all I care and I hardly notice. He is heroic and regal and handsome... but why does he loves Sonmi so?? I don't get it. 

I love everything about the Frobisher story. The affair with Ayrs (or who the heck it is) is also kinda pointless, but aside from that, everything melodramatic about this story works.

I want to watch it again, but I don't think so I can larat go through 3 hours of it. Tapi nak tengok Jim Sturgess. Maybe I'll search for Upside Down next then for my Sturgess fix. 

Update gaya malas

Ajis is now 6 months!

Perut seksi

Can guling2 at last!
Boleh mengesot ke kiri kanan to see people around him.
Makan dengan jayanye. I think he is ready for bubur and biscuits next, instead of all those purees.
Can recognize people, tapi don't mind people picking him up. Peramah orangnye.
Can say 'mamamamamama'. Try to ask him to add 'mi' to no avail. I am not a mama person Ajis!
Macam ade gigi, tapi tak berjaya lagi tengok giginye. Die tepis our hand away, even when he is sleeping.


The cats
Kurang sikit selsemanye sesekor. Especially Kurap yang asyik bersin mengeluarkan hingus hijau.
Few days back I forgot to buy their wet food. Usually twice a day I'll give them the wet food on top of kibbles a bit. So when none is left, I bagi cat treats. Tetiga ekor tu bolayan. Kurap datang sniffs and look at me with a disgusted look in her face. Rupa macam aku bagi taik ayam je gayanye. Poyo sangat kekucing aku ni.

Work
Hectic. Penat. Neverending. Tolonglah habis cepat.

Me
Tah la weh. Sibuk main candy crush saga ni to think of what is bothering me. Distractions, distractions.

Ape tuuuu

Tu la mainan busuk Kurap.  Sejak 2 menjak kena discourage tidur bilik ni die selalu miau2 depan pintu mintak masuk. Kenkadang kesian bagi la kejab.

Sometimes she came bearing gift. Memula ingatkan die bawak mainan die naik untuk main. Tapi mesti letak masuk depan pintu. Bukak pintu je melulu masuk abaikan mainan terus. After dah banyak kali berlaku baru paham die bagi gift a.k.a rasuah la untuk masuk bilik. So she gave me this so she expects me to open the room for her. Sweet sangat montelism kurap ni.

Kenkadang pagi2 I bangun the mainan ade depan pintu. And I found her sleeping kat tangga tepi bilik. Kesian. That usually means she had mewed and I tak dengar ler tu.

Ini adalah antara sebab I berat hati nak ikut husband transfer. Kurap have to go with me too because I think she will be brokenhearted if left with somebody else.

Pft

Whatttt.. they are not impressed at the rates I am solving defects?

Of course. Because they have around 4 5 people doing tests, while I am along responding inane emails, CRs, reading documents (which they dont read and expect me to answer all questing), while solving defects and replicating and taking screenshots.

Pbthhh..

I hate people. I nak jadi housewife la gini!

Penatttt

Everyday penattt. 

I think I may need to buy FM for Ajis. Can't keep up with pumping and try to pump in the middle of the night still tak cukup. The thing is during office hour I can only pump at 12. Then another session bile otw balik keje. I don't have any time to do much else during office hour woo. Penat. At the very least I got him to only BM for the first 6 mths. Well, Ajis tak sampai 6 bulan la lagi tapi seminggu je lagi. 

Then bile husband balik la macam2 mende rosak, my usb player tadek sound. Astro saiko. Roof leaking. Gollywolly found a way to get out. 

USB player tu takleh buat ape la. Tengok most of series dekat computer, Astro tu kena tepuk bile die buat perangai, roof dah ok. The grill still needed for me to add the wire mesh ke ape tah tu, tak beli lagi. Litterbox kucing pon I cleaned in the middle of the night. Semua mende buat tgh malam la. Huhu. Now I totally get why so many opt to be a housewife. While things may not get much easier, but it must lessen the workload and stress line a bit. 

Kurap tengah pengsan depan mata. So kiut my kitteh ni, all the cats tengah selsema. Kurap bile bersin, bersin hingus hijau ok. Kesiannn. I try to pasang humidifier with vicks, tapi tak working pon. Dah la semua ni jenis payah gile makan ubat. Kenkadang rase nak je jentik sesekor bile taknak makan ubat tu. Geram. Dah la sakit. Degil lak tu. Pastu kite lak cedera. I bought a pill popper tu. tapi cam konpius lak camne nak guna. Sebab selalunye nak kena ade dua tangan bukak mulut kucing, while 2 jari tu pegang pil. Ni mcm kena bukak mulut 1 tangan je. Hurmmmphhh.... 

Ohh I had also change my skin care from Simple to Neutrogena. Had been using Simple since tah bile... tapi sejak 2 menjak dah makin meningkat usia ni... EHEM, I think I may need something milder sebab it make my skin so dry. So now I am using Neutrogena, been using the ageless ape tah Neutrogena but then couldnt find it. It was ok, smell amazing. Now bought another one, sekarang ni ok. Neutrogena ni setakat ni very nice, does not make my skin oily, nor dry and skin rase supple and bouncy. Cuma yang tak best ni is the smell. Bau macam paint. Ade macam hint of soy and some other chemical thingies punye bau. Bole gag. If I was using it masa pregnant memang kena buang. 

Ahh dah habis pumping. Nak tido.   

5 months sudahh

Wahh... I had been so busy. Ade sekali tu sampai cam bergenang2 air mata sebab stress sangat. Kerja lagi and Ajis being more fussier than possible! Sekarang ni die akan tidur bebetul nyenyak pukul 11.30. And he slept all the way till 6 am for his morning susu. Then bangun lagi around 8 am.

While at night he is a sound sleeper, he is a crybaby the other half of the time. Constantly nak berdukung. Sometimes I let him be and he will be angry and he will be cry shouting. If your baby does the same you probably understand what I mean by cry shouting. Last weekend I lock the room and carry the baby monitor, as I was busy scooping out taik kucing, didnt hear my baby crying, by the time I dengar die dah melalak tahap bunyi macam budak kena dera. Naseb baik I simpan the kunci bilik somewhere around nearby. Sekali terbangun jeeeee. He likes to sleep bawah ketiak mommy. So if he wakes up and no mommy around, memang waterworks plus vocalization laa.

Anyway masihhh tidak berguling. Everyone else is stressing out. Except moi. Haha. Eh banyak la lagi mende dalam my day to day untuk aku stressed out. Paeds cakap ok je. Die memang malas. So let him be la. Kalau dah setahun tu layak la kut aku stress out.

You know I missed my time alone at home. It was me and the kitties. I have all the time in the world. Sekarang my time is only 11 pm until what time I think I should sleep before being fully awaken again at 8 am tomorrow. My maid? Tak payah la. She scooped out the litterbox tapi sebab I am a thorough person, I will do it again every night to make sure the pee got scoop out too. Scooping out pee from a litterbox memerlukan skill ok. You have to know exactly how to korek it and shake it so it wont fall back to the box in a smelly ammonia inducing mess. If I missed out a night mesti esok litterbox tu akan disaster. The kitties wont like it.

Menunggu dengan penuh eksaited untuk makan

Oh and I already start Ajis on solid. He likes it. Intro him to basic rice cereal first. 2 minggu gak la rice cereal. Seminggu sehari sekali dulu, then now baru ade petang makan sekali. Breakfast tak lagi. Lambat sikit la breakfast, maybe when he is 6 months. So now slowly I introduced him to vege and fruit puree.  selang selikan la the vege and fruit. First vege was sweet peas which he likes. Tapi yang siksa adalah mak die duk shell sweet peas tu. Then mak die baru teringat mak die ade maid kenapa tak pergunakan. D'oh. Then I introduce him to sweet apples puree. He likes it. I think after this it is probably sweet potato puree and pear purees. Nak kena beli bekas ice cube kat Giant je. Giant got those instead of a double row, a single row of ice cube punye bekas with cover. I need to buy 2 more so I can store more stuff.

Though I did risau a bit bile die tak berak for 2 days, so I lessen his rice cereal and increase the fruit purees. And bagi di probiotic. The next day die berak. So yeah, lessen the rice cereal and oat cereal once in a while I would think. 

Icky greenish stuffs tu is sweet peas. Surprisingly  sweet and mild and creamy. And I blend it without milk ok. I dont understand why people said baby food is icky. Sodap je. 

I bought the Phillips Avent yang boleh steam and blend tu. Senang tu prepare his food. Setakat ni okla. Memang easy peasy. Bought it at Jusco, ade discount so dapat la RM300++. Cuma drawback nye I think it is quite small la. Ah well.

Gollywolly tengah sibuk check ade ape tak untuk die.

Apart from the starting solids. Well he is starting to get to know his mommy. Crying when I left for work. Sometimes la. Most of the time, he is having the time of his life with his cousins. And walaupon tak reti golek, tapi bile he is on top me he can golek sampai hujang kaki, lepas tu gelak2. 

Penat. Am now pumping because my stok susu is really merundum. Maybe because I am tired and all stressed out from this project. Yeah. Dont get me started on work. Anyway. Later. Banyak je things to update. Ade masa ke tak je now. Hehe. 

Happy ending

Jumpa dah makhluk ni!

Semalam bile bangun rase susah hati sgt la bile tak jumpa die. Risau. Sambil tu dah sibuk nak cari kucing lain. Cewah. Sentap hati Bobby kalau die tahu aku nak pi cari pengganti. Bukan apee.. gollywolly tu kalau tinggal seskor mula la menyanyi satu rumah. Kalau terkunci die dalam bilik sensorang bising ya amat. Kalau ade teman die happy je. Kurap tu bukan peneman ye.

Anywayy.. semalam lepas mandikan2 Ajis nekad la gue mencari Bobby lagi. Hari Ahad kan. Weekdays dah payah dah. So dukung la kenit tu pegi jenjalan area taman perumahan sambil panggil "Bobbyyyy...". Macam2 kucing la yg bertuan dtg menjenguk. Ade tu tengah duk panggil sekor duk nyahut. Tengok2 ade kucing yg rupa cam bobby dalam cage kat luar rumah orang. Wahh.. hati dah happy dah wehhh. Sekali gi dekat sikit kat luar pagar. Lain laa. Die punyer marking grey tu banyak lagj dari Bobby. Dah bersedihan tepi rumah orang tu. Sedih bukan Bobby satu. Satu lagi sedih sebab tengok kucing tu miau sayu jee dari cage ke arah rumah mintak orang buka cage. Kalian kalau bela kucing, tolong la jangan letak kucing dalam cage lelama ok. Kesian taw. Lagi2 cage ke kecik.

Then sedih2 tu continue jalan panggil Bobby lagi. Ajis rilek je. Dah start panas tapi banyak kawasan teduh leh jalan. Ajis tu asalkan berdukung berjalan memang suke je. Tak kisah la bawak ke mana. Mana tak lambat benar nak bergulingnye anak oi.

Jalan depan lagi tetiba nampak Bobby tepi jalan! Wahh.. happy woo. Pantang je dukung budak. Kalau tak dah berlari dah. Bole pulak orang panggil die buat bodo je. So bile dah dekat sikit, aku duk tepuk2 sikit jalan tu. Sebab kalau kat rumah nak panggil die ke kite, selalu duk tepuk2 sofa. Baru die datang miau2. Sibuk la die before ni duk menghidu2 pokok kat depan rumah orang. So panggil die suh jalan tepi so I can lead him back la. Adala jalan tepi dalam 20 30 tapak pastu distracted tengok ape tah die nak gi arah lain pulak. ADHD betul. Last2 angkat die sebelah tangan sambil dukung ajis . Org2 lalu lalang naik motor tgk je pompuan ni duk pegang kucing sebelah budak sebelah.

Bawak die balik dah ade welcoming committee dah. Tapi sebab 2 hari hilang so mesti la ade bergelut dengan kucing memana, betina2 rumah tu duk hissing lepas bau. Dah lap sikit dengan pet wipes baru ok. Bobby ok je. Telinga sedikit robek. Sampai rumah terus cari makan n minum then terbongkang sepanjang hari sampai ke malam. Kesian.

Tak jauh pon jumpa die. Kat jalan belakang rumah. Tapi mungkin gak before this die kat tah memana sebab dah lalu situ 2 3 kali before cari die. Nasib baik jumpa la kan. Tapi rasenye kalau tak jumpa pon Insya Allah die dapat cari jalan. Cuma lambat sikit. Takut kena baham anjing or dilanggar je la in that time.

Bobby Hilang

Takde mood nak cerita lebih cuma harap die balik la intact and sihat. He had been gone since Friday, pagi. Ni Sat mlm maseh tadek walau dah cari merata.
