Alhamdulillah confinement is gonna be over soon...
so korang buat apa masa pantang? i know some watch telemovies like my sis-in law, tengok winter sonata..hehehe..some bergossip sakan ngan mak..ader setengah tu x menang tangan..especially kalu dh anak ramai..
for me? anak pertama sempat la mengkhatamkan telenovella negara apa entah..yg heroinnya jahat tu..asik pakai baju seksi je..bercinta ngan doktor baik tapi sbb die lum kaya gi goda orang kaya muda lain pastu jiwa tersiksa tgk dr yg die chenta tu jatuh cinta ngan org lain..entahapaapentah....hahaha...
anak kedua..izzah dah ader...xdenye tgk telenovella ke apa...asik tengok little einstein je..LOL..sampai hafal!! masuk anak ketiga ni best sket..alhamdulillah kehendak ibu n anak dpt dipenuhi...hihihihi..YAHOOOOOO!!!!!
this time i took the liberty to control the TV...gilir2 ngan anak..sempat la nak tgk DVD Harry Potter - Half Blood Prince tuh...Transformers 2(love it SOOO much btw), anak2 plak dgn DVD diorang lah..macam2 laa..RObot la.., mickey mouse la, cinderella laa.. baik la hubby kaki DVD, bleh la merasa nk tgk movie2 ni sumer..harapkan tgk wayang..rasenye lama lagi nk bleh jejak masuk..tunggu diorang ni sumer besar agaknye, kuwar reramai..
all the dvd movies are just merely to compensate the uneasy feeling of confinement...hehe..u guys should know better..waktu berpantang is not actually pleasant...especially the 1st week tu, dgn jahitannya lagi..be it normal or ceaser...takut bentan laa takut tu la ni la...macam2... tapi alhamdulillah my confinement is gonna end soon and cant wait to be 'me' again..!! haha

35 days..
Assalamualaikum semua,
1st of all...salam ramadhan semua, although its kinda late, but we still have few days before Ramadhan is over..dah hujung2 Ramadhan nih..ermm manfaatkanlah sebaiknye..
One thing about Malaysia and maybe othe countries where Muslim is a majority..we can get access of all tazkirah, and any information on Islam easily..tazkirah di TV and radio, plenty of books for kids n adults in bookshops and many more. For that we should be thankful..IM SERIOUS. Bila dh duduk di negara orang, then u realize how grateful u should be, when everything is so easily access. Halal food, tempat solat i.e musolla and masjid. Tergerak hati ni masa solat kat surau Subang Parade, " Ya Allah senaangnye nk solat." Tak payah pening kepala nk cari masjid n kalu masjid ader pun, tempat wudhu' perempuan punyeeeeeeelaaa jauh..telekung apatah lagi... ader satu pun dah syukur. So bila ader facilities ni dh disedikan untuk kita, alangkah senangnye.....we REALLY should be grateful.
BUT...
There is the adjustment that we have to deal with, weather, diff people attitude, diff environment. Eventhough its only a year and a half, we could still feel the difference.
Izzah kept referring her house is still at no 14 (perth house)..asik kene ckp je kat die that her new house is no6..alhamdulillah skrg dh ok..all of us were not well when we came back..coughing, cold and increase of body heat..But now..its only left with me n izzah..i can only take mild medication as im pregnant..so lambatla baik..
izzah lak dah berbotol panadol makan tapi x baik2..guess she's still adjusting to the weather..
So now after 35 days in Malaysia, im hoping things will get better for us..dlm segala segi..ameen..
To my family n friends yg x sempat nk jumpa or bitau that we've came back. minta maaf banyak2, wishing Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to all of u,Insya-Allah ader rezeki nanti kita jumpa..either during raya or after ive delivered the baby...
Minta maaf kalu ader tersilap kata n bahasa or even ader terumpat.halal kan makan minum ok.!! That's straight from my heart..
Alrite, have a blessful Ramadhan n a joyous eid everyone..for us this year..everything is wasatiah...hihi, but we're still happy coz this year dpt beraya dgn family in Malaysia..huhu..

More albany..
The second day in albany was better..syukur alhamdulillah the sun was shining brightly..on the way back..we stopped at these places..
The Gapp & The Natural Bridge
The landscape was like..out of this world..subhanallah...although u have to be careful to walk on the rocks coz the surface is slippery..and the wind blowing from the sea..errggg SEJUUUKKKK...it was windy n cold.. despite all that..it was worth it..
Mount Clearance
A scenic view of the Albany town..and there's a memorial statue there as well..
and.. the Wind Farm
i guess you could guess how the wind farm works..energy produced by the windmill..actually we can go to higher grounds for better picture..but..we were catching up time..coz we dont wanna arrive perth late at night..and one more thing
the roads along the way xde lampu..errkk...dangerous n scary as well..
so thats it.. our final cuti2 perth...

Hols..
its been nice to go albany..although at first we wanted to wait for any of our family members..who MIGHT just come to give us a visit n join us..hehe ;p
It was a long trip almost 7 hrs..macam nk balik kelantan je..alhamdulillah i was ok throughout the journey, the kids were ok too but after 3-4 hours they got bored..luckily we didnt have to face any of their tantrums along the way..HOORAYYY for the Airianis...alhamdulillah..
we stop and ate lunch at williams..nama tempat tu williams.. there was a lake there, even then the view was magnificent..very calm n peaceful..dh terasa dh suasana country tu..ooh the place we're going to is somewhat country-like..ala2 kampung gitu..lots of farms n we can see the cows, sheeps, horses..
One thing about countries with 4 season..we need to check the weather forecast regularly..coz winter in perth is wet..n the next day was forecasted raining..xdela percaya 100%..tp just be precautious..wear extra thick..n bring ur umbrella..
apart from that albany is said to be a cold place..n me being FORGETFULL... didnt bring any jacket...aaaihhh!!! i survived with ONLY thick shirts and wearing many layers of it..luckily i didnt get cold or anything..
1st destination..Whale World..
This ship is used to catch whales in those days
look at the size of that whale..and thats is the smallest tau..
and we also went to see some shows on sharks as well..tapi xde lak gbr sharks yg diambil
important facts learnt :
1. The normal size of a whale is the size of an aircraft.
2. The heart of a whale is the size of a mini mpv mercedes car (besar kan)
3. Human kill sharks for commercial purposes over 30 million a year..and sharks kill
human for ONLY 10 or even less than that in a year..(so sape yg kejam nih)
4. Sharks eats all the dead and diseased animals to keep the ocean clean..(and what do we do..we KILL them..sbb tula ocean kite byk tercemar skrg..apart from the
pollution that we make..we ruin the natural ecosystem as well..:(

Another new experience
Alhamdulillah, gratitude and praise to Allah for all He had given us including the one growing in my womb right now..
this is actually the picture of the face n body..
As with other new experience ive had, the experience of getting pregnant here is just as exciting as others.
ermm mana satu nk mula..hehe okla memula masa nk confirm pregnancy tu with the GP, (GP tu is actually a normal doctor like the one we have in msia..kat klinik2 biasa tu..yg xde specialise in any area..)the normal way of confirming pregnancy is thru urine test, which is +ve alhamdulilah..i was already 9 weeks..and on the next checkup, she told me my body was very low in iron, as iron foods was meat, chicken, milo drinks..i was waaayyy off that kinda food, i was only eating eggs and kicap..milo x suka, daging x suka, sumer x suka..telur n kicap je suka..haha and so i had to take multivitamin with iron as my supplement..kalu x cuma makan folic acid je dh cukup said the GP
after 2nd checkup with the GP, she said i should continue my check-ups with a midwife, orang melayu panggil bidan..haha i think its common to have midwives in western countries like aussie, midwives here are professional, just like a nurse in a hospitals..only they specify in maternity stuff.
so my checkups will only be with the midwives..unless i have complications, then would i see the gynae doctor..
for normal checkups i will only see the doctos at 5, 7 and 9 months..if everything is ok, meaning no complications of any sort..my delivery too will be done by the midwife.
so far i have had only 1 scan, when i was in my 5th month..not done by the doctor/midwife but by a radiologist..haha ala pakar bahagian2 x-ray sumer ni..pegi kat die la..die gelek2 perut aku ngan mende ultrasound tu..lama pulak tu..he took measurements and we saw the baby in so many diff angles..ya Allah..what an experience..
kalu kat msia everytime jumpa dr delaila..mesti kene scan..which last only 2-3 min..monitor pun kecik je..ni siap ngan TV lagi kite leh tgk baby tu in wide-flat screen monitor..wuuhuuu..izzah was so excited to see the baby..
oh ye, the best part is masa 1st time jumpa midwive die tanya..how many stiches did u had? i was like..huh?? how many?? sorry i dont have any idea..they just cut me..;P
rupanye dekat sini no stiches is necessary if the opening is good enough for the baby to come out..and if cutting is required, they will ask the patient's permission 1st before doing so..BEST GILERRR!!!
some stories ive heard from frens delivering here..dlm delivery room tu,satu family leh masuk..older kids can even see the baby being delivered..hahaha DOUBLE BEST GILERRR!!!(err ke budak tu nanti fobia bila tgk..haha)
pastu the midwife will visit us kat umah after delivery to check on us, for 5 days to be exact after delivery..TRIPPLE BEST GILERRR!! xyah laa nk jalan2 kuwar masa minggu pertama pantang tu nk jumpa docktor kat klinik..
but i dunno whether i have the opportunity to deliver here/not, dlm hati ni nk je rase..tapi cam x sempat je..xpelah..msia pun ok jugak kan!!
hehe so thats the BIG story guys..to nora, tekaan mu benar belaka my fren, kau mmg terer!!..sorry for the late announcement..family kat msia tau dulu la before korang tau..hehe

Parent Helper
Still about izzah's kindy..
There's this thing called parent helper..where they encourage parents to come to school and spend time with their children and other kids in the class.
I went twice already, once was last term, and the second was on the 5th june.
Parents are encourage to stay around few hours during the morning session and they can go back anytime as they please..
im happy with this approach, coz i can actually see what is actually happening in the class..how the teacher teach the children, in which i can adapt it myself in teaching izzah at home..
and its becouse of this program that i understand why kids love school so much..
what did i do during that time??
the teacher would introduced me to the kids in the morning and i would basically help the teacher's assistant to do anything there is need to do with their activity that day..
its either helping the kids to do painting, or playing with them, assisting them to go to toilet..anything at all..and it is during this time i can voice my opinions and chat with her teacher about izzah's progress in school and their activities in school..how lovely!!
the list of things the children did that day..
izzah was always happy when im around, and keep telling her teacher n her friends
"thats my mum..thats my mum.." waaah bangga nyerr!!!
I love this parents helper thing so much that i volunteered again next month..hehe..
my hubby told me..suka la tu..nanti kat msia..mesti sibuk nak masuk PIBG sekolah...
hahhaha yeke..nak masuk ke??? heheheheh macam nak je!!! izzah malu x agak2..have to ask her before i join anything...some kids just hate the publicity..

Updates
Hi people!! yes, yes, im still here..and im doing good alhamdulillah..
Lama ye x update blog nih..hehe..time is not always on my side..last year was a blessing i guess..hehe..
Its now june, hubby will be having his final exam in 2 days, sudah mula sakit kepala x semena2, xde mood makan dan segala simptom orang nak amik exam..(pelik kan, why didnt i have all these symptoms dulu masa blaja??!!, oh ye pttla aku x score!!..;p)
izzah is in her 2nd term of kindy, enjoying every minute of her time in school..asking everyday whether the next day will be her school day..
i can understand now, when people keep saying that their children wont go back to msia coz they love the school here so much..
the teachers here are so loving and caring.. giving freedom to every child to speak his/her mind off..freedom of speach, and at the same time not being rude in doing so..teaching them at their own pace..and making sure while doing that they are not left behind in terms of reading n other education stuff.
what about msian education..?? i can see some have already started making a diff approach in kindy..
i have heard bad testimonials from frens who went back home saying that they're children had a miserable time in school, homework is too much, standard 1 levels are too high, competition among students are tough, teachers are hard on the students, no playtime..(they have playtime here, something like a short break at 10.30am and break for lunch is another thing)
it freaks me out!!!! ermm... im praying hard that izzah will be able to suit in to msian education..luckily she's still in kindy..i guess she can still adapt when we go back later.
ooh have i told u that schools in aussie dont give homework to bring home, its up to the parents initiative i guess, if their children needed the extra help in their studies..
im keeping my postive views about msian early education and the normal education system in school..heard that muhyiddin yassin is trying to make a diff approach in education system now..hopefully things will get better for our kids in the future yeahh..no more exam oriented basis, kesian kat budak2 yg actually talented but sadly doesnt do well in exams..
keep the prayes coming in guys..its our kids turn now..dont we want the best for them??!! who doesnt huh??

Ikan Bilis Kicap
Disebabkan sambutan ke atas ikan bilis kicap agak memberansangkan, i will post the recipe..for those yang x tau n wanna try that is..
Ikan Bilis Kicap
Bahan
Ikan Bilis
Cili Padi (accordingly ikut kuantiti ikan bilis)
kicap manis
Bawang merah
Cara :
1. Goreng ikan bilis, asingkan.
2. Masukkan bawang + cili padi, dlm minyak yg sama, goreng sebentar.
3. Masukkan kicap, x yah byk sgt n jgn sikit sgt, setakat ader berkuah sikit..
4. Akhir skali, masukkan balik ikan bilis yg dah digoreng tadi n gaul rata.
5. x yah masukkan garam/gula, sbb ikan bilis tu dh masin, kicap lak dh manis..
sori la xde gbr, nnti dh ader gbr, i will paste it here..
pernah korang try wat kari sardin? sedap tau!! dulu sebelum kawen, my mom will always cook that bila abis bahan mentah, n lepas kawen, adik ipar lak ader try wat sambal sardin tapi x guna cili boh, guna cili padi serbuk kari n bawang je..
lagi satu kan..pernah x makan kari kacang hijau..ni kan resipi dr my late grandfather..the recipe originated nun jauh dr pakistan tu...x taula kalu korang pernah ternampak kari jenis ni kat restoran mamak ke x..

Birthday again..
Both my airianis are another year older..Izzah is 4 and Syirah is 2.. and yes another online celebration with families in msia...
Alhamdulilah this time me n hubby managed to make a decoration on the cake..its not actually easy for me coz im not really good in decorating cakes..hubby did most of the decoration..
This year i made a sponge cake..just to try a new recipe actually.. its ok..soft n spongy...but im still looking for a softer n spongier recipe..cam swiss roll yang jual kat kedai tu kan..punyerla lembut n sedaapppp!!!
but i would say the recipe is good enough for me.. i will still use this recipe for my future bakings..

cerita pasal air..
miraclously i am awake at this time..1230am in the morning...selalunye dh doze off dah..
so kesempatan ini ku gunakan membaca blog rakan2 yg dah lama x ku kunjungi...so after reading, tetiba terasa nk cerita pasal mende nih...
so whats with the topic above..hahahah...
have u guys ever experienced living with no water..i mean kalu ader pun sikit sgt..
kisahnye bermula masa matric..utk rakan2ku di uia..mungkin cerita ini akan mengembalikan kenangan 'manis' anda...hahaha
KISAH UIA
I can still remember masa tu sibuk nk Sukan Komanwel..so it was the year 1998...air asyik xde kat matric.. hostel matric uia utk girls time tu agak berbukit..so di puncak yg tertinggi tula tinggalnye cik suriani kassim dn rakan2 blok 1 yang lain..dimana pressure air paling susah naik..maksudnye kalu xde air..blok 1 yang akan kene dulu..
pegi kelas, balik kelas x pikir apa..asyik pikir nk tadah air je..in case ader air, nk basuh kain..n nk mandi proper.. keje mandi n membuang guna sebaldi air je mana puas..
kalu citer satu2 mmg x kesudahan..tapi antara moments yg paling paling diingati:
a) pagi2 beratur bercangkung nk amik wudhu kat sink dapur..macam citer bujang lapuk
tu.. bgn as early as 5.30am ok..kalu x nnti ramai org dh bangun pastu nnti air
abis..kenelah turun kat musolla bawah atau blok lain nk amik wudhu
KISAH CONDO
Pas abis blaja..n kawen ingat kan xde dh kes prob air nih..
rupanya kat tempat tinggal kitaorang tu ader problem air..yang kelakarnye only to my block...
so since im always at home...i'll be the 1st one to complain...pepagi lagi dh complain.masuk 8.45am je dh call tanya nape xde air..admin clerk tu smpi kompius sbb die pun x tau xde air..
macam2 jadi kat umah tu..kadang problem astro..kelakar betul level lain x kene..level aku je yang kene..so here i go again complaining..kabel umah kitaorang je yg rosak umah lain xde pulak..
pastu lagi best ader satu kali diorang gi tebuk corridor depan umah tu..sbb die kata ader leackage entah camner..sampai air masuk dlm cable roomm..WHAATTT??? amende la management diorang nih..buat penat je byr maintenance fee..tapi x maintain pun..
masa die tebuk tu..air kat umah xde..so die gi guna paip cam hose bomba tu dr paip kat bilk buang sampah masuk ke umah..yang kene 2 umah je masa tu..my house n another house..so kene gilir2 laa..
hubby balik terkejut beruk..amende la tebuk2 dpn umah aku nih..pastu ader hos bomba lak melingkar dlm umah..sape x ngamuk...dhla penat balik keje..tgk umah cam umah setinggan...macam kite curi air lak rupanye...
hahah ya Allah what an experience...tapi few months before we left the house..sumernye dh ok..keje aku la tu asik complain..sampai die tukar admin clerk pun tau...manager die pun dh kenal..hahhhaha...sori arr ek..tapi sape suro asik x maintain je service kat condo tu..hahaha..air dah ok..astro dh ok..alhamdulillah sumer dh ok..
doa2 la mudah2an in future i wouldnt have ths prob again..serik aarr!!
korang ader kene prob camni??

5 tahun dah rupanye...
On the 19th March 2009..genaplah perkahwinan kami selama 5 tahun...ermmm orang tua2 kata 5 tahun pertama adalah ujian bagi satu perkahwinan..sbb masa tu nk mengenal sifat sebenar pasangan, dugaan hidup bersama mula terasa...susah senang mula diduga di dalam setiap perkahwinan...
mmg benarlah kata orang tua2 itu....although we have known each other since we were small..tapi bila ddk sebumbung n hidup bersama lain tak serupa.. macam baru nk kenal orang lain...
we pray the days ahead to be smooth..although its always not like that...hehe but its always good to pray for the best kan..

Family Day
Persatuan Student Post Grad kat sini rajin wat aktiviti, kitaorang je selalu x dpt nk join sbb hubby nyer course is masters by coursework..maksudnye apa tu?? maksudnyeeeerrrr.....kene gi kelas tetiap hari, kene wat assignment selalu, ade quiz, mid terms n so on...just like undergrad students..
PHD students are mostly by research...tu plak apa?? itu maksudnyeerrr....diorang kene wat research..cam thesis..x yah gi kelas selalu..unless mg ader..which usually once a week camtu, sibuk jugak cuma xde commitment assgmnets and quizzes and review topic nak belajar before class start every week..
oleh sbb commitment yg harus diberi kepada hubby's studies itulah kami x dpt nk join selalu and oleh sbb itulah...kami x kenal ramai sgt kat perth nie..too bad...tapi xpelah..ader jugak yg kenal..online frens..and few kenal masa gi makan2 kat umah kawan2 yang 2-3 kerat yang kami kenal kat sini..itupun jumpa skali pastu x jumpa dah..
alhamdulillah kali ni..hubby x sibuk sgt n kitaorang dpt dtg...wpun dh lama ddk sini..dtgla tersengih2 cam org baru sampai perth,..hahahah sbb x kenal ramai org.. tapi okla sumernye frendly2 belaka..we didnt feel strange at all..
izzah starting to make frens..

errrrmm
Memangla kan kite ni makhluk Allah yg lemah...cuaca berubah sikit je dh x menentu badan kite.. kalu kat Msia org demam, batuk2 sbb kejap2 hujan2..kejap2 panas..
kat sini pun sama..cuma xde hujan laa..tetiba sejuk yg teramat..pastu panas yg teramat..ya Allah..anak2 pun demam aritu..alhamdulillah la xde apa2 yg serious..(im always extra worried when they're sick..yela takut jadi cam izzah dulu)
then i was sick..lepas dh baik..2-3 lepas kene serangan migrain..ya Allah..lamanye x kene migrain...denyut2 kepala ni rase nk terkeluar biji mata...macam2 lagi simptom penyakit yg kene..sakit tekak la, ulcer laa..ermm petanda x cukup multi vitamin x cukup minum air..aihhh..
tapi apa pun syukur la the rest of the family x kene apa2 yg seious..
ok..tukar topik..
most my family n frens are considering to quit their job..some are still hesitant n some thinks is the right thing to do..
personal opinion..if u wanna work at home actually its more challenging...
think of it as this way...u being the nursery care taker n working at the same time..
ive been to seminars and hear from people who have done it..and say its not an easy thing to do..but its really worth it!!..
key word..DISCIPLINE... like one lady nih masa seminar tu, she's an engineer..so she quit from mana entah n start doing consultation from home..
her routine..pagi- bangun awal siap bfast, bekal anak2..hantar ank sekolah..balik umah kemas2...8-11am..die akan masuk bilik and put a sign on her door saying..mommy's working... after 11- kuwar bilik siap kan lunch amik anak sekolah..sumer pastu layan anak...n i forgot the rest of it..hehe..but she did plan her time well.
but kene disiplin time laa..at the end of the day..eventhogh she's tired..but it really pays off that she can be with her kids..watching them eat bfast, lunch n dinner in front of her..and help with their homework..coz usually she's used to going out early morning n come back when her kids are asleep...anak die pun x kenal die..she took the decision to quit bcoz her kids were crying like mad when her maid berenti n masa nk hantar kat klia..merengek nk ikut maid die..hati ibu mana yg x sebak tgk anak lebih prefer maid dr ibu die sendiri...
i have tried biz at home and i tell u its not easy..i really do think my time management sucks, thats the reason i am always on the rush to do all my chores..esp when orders are coming in..but deep inside i believe kalu niat kite ikhlas nk ddk umah n be a btter wife n mother, Allah will help us..
im trying to do better in my time management, coz when i go back to msia..byk plan dlm kepala ni nk expand biz..tapi itu sumer kene bincangg betul2 ngan hubby..sbb takut anak2 terabai..kene plan properly..
to my dear family n frens..good luck in ur biz as a stepping stone to a better life..i pray for the best in u guys..n i will insya-Allah support u in anyway i can..
ameen..

Dinner @ Wahseem's
We had a dinner invitation from hubby's classmate, Wahseem..yes his name is that..he comes from Mauritius..
Funny things is..Wahseem wanted to eat Nasi Goreng USA badly..coz he studied in Malaysia before and fell in love with Nasi Goreng USA so much..so he wants me to teach him cook Nasi Goreng USA for dinner..or simply cook tegether with him n his wife..
Problem is..i dunno how to make Nasi Goreng USA..hehe...yeah yeah..taula apa korang nk cakap..nasi goreng biasa je..ngan telur mata kerbau n daging masak merah..tapi kalu kat msia..keje beli kat gerai je.jarang nk buat sendiri..he sort of like the same taste he's been having back in Malaysia..he even explains to me how it tastes to him..aarrggghhhh~!!! habisla mati aku kalu x buat yg serupa cam die makan..
I searched like mad for the Nasi Goreng USA recipe..ya Allah...talking about desperation..susah betul nk cari the one that looked good, and recipe that seems similar to what he wanted n like .. and finally i found one..well, it doesnt exactly taste the same macam kat warong2 tu..coz it uses capsicum and fried using butter. but okla..at least ader gak resipi...bukan nye xleh nk hentam je wat..just wanted a guide thats all..kang salah terus kang..habis aku..dahlah si wahseem tu tgh kempunan..kesian lak kat dia..
NASI GORENG USA
Bahan-Bahan:
4 pinggan nasi putih
4 ulas bawang merah [cincang]
2 ulas bawang putih [cincang]
1 biji cili capsicum merah
1 biji telur ayam (digoreng hancur)
1 mankuk kecil daging ayam [dipotong nipis dan kecil]
1/2 cawan mix-vege
1 sudu kecil lada hitam [ditumbuk lumat]
Garam
majerin
bahan hiasan
telur mata kerbau
salad coleslow
daun sup
tomato buah
Cara:
1. Panaskan majerin, kemudian masukkan bahan-bahan yang telah dicincang beserta lada hitam.
2. Tumis hingga naik baunya.
3. Masukkan daging ayam dan biarkan seketika sehingga daging tersebut masak
4. Kemudian masukkan mix-vege dab telur hancur tadi.
5. Kacau hingga semuanya sebati. Masukkan garam dan serbuk perasa.
6. Kemudian masukkan nasi dan gaulkan hingga sebati.
7. Angkat dan masukkan dalam pinggan hidangan
wahseeem n wife, umeira
i didnt put daun sup, coleslaw, tomato..just the telur mata kerbau..add a 2 tbsp of blended soaked dried chillies while frying the onions..before adding the chicken..
i think if u wanted something similar to the one sold in warong..avoid the capsicum and fy using oil..
i paste the recipe here, simply because, in case there are people who are looking for the recipe like me and had a hard time finding..they can use this recipe..its full-proof..!! because..it was a hit with wahseem..and hubby..bth agreed that it didnt taste the same as the one in warong..but it was tasty..i serve together with sambal belacan..and it was a great combination..!!
Fuuuhhh...alhamdulillah sangat jadik nasi goreng usa aku..kalu x maluuuu nyeee!!! org msia x reti wat nasi goreng usa!! hahahaha
i will paste the daging merah recipe later sbb malas nk bukak buku resipiku..hehe
this is the best pic ive got..

A day at Kindy
Ooohh...have i told u about izzah starting her kindy..guess not!! She has already started 3 weeks ago..
First impression..the headmaster was friendly and super sempoi..wearing t-shirt, pants and a pair of sport shoes..i guess for me that is sempoi coz,, im used to seeing headmaster wearing formal attire..
they had started a week earlier, we missed that..2 times a week 9am-3pm...again..i said..lamanya!! buat apa kat skolah lama2..bukan blaja apa2 pun..
izzah in her school shirt..it comes together with a skirt..but knowing izzah, she dediced not to wear the skirt that day..luckily school uniform is not compulsory for kindy kids..
then i met the teacher, and they gave us the school time table..
they had lots of activities..mostly izzah had done it all at home..colouring, pasting, puzzles, singing and reading story books.. but i find the main focus is to teach them to be independant and socialize with friends of their age..ooh and another thing..for izzah to learn english as well..
writing izzah's name on all her hats, etc
they have a break for fruit time, something like a tea-break, except u'll be eating fruits and share it with all ur friends,lunch, and have 20-30 minutes break for nap time.. they need to bring along their own cushion to sleep though so that they'll be more comfy sleeping and remind them of home.
the class teacher..ms sobejko
i had no problem sending izzah to school..the only thing that worries me is her problem with toilet training..we had done it all..the potty training, 15-20 min every day..what happended was she fell asleep in the toilet..LOL...can u believe that!!!
then we tried counselling..doesnt work either..then we tried other irrational ways like threatened her with no madagascar and toy story, doesnt work either...
and last resort.. reward!! will give her a super-duper cool toy if she goes to the toilet..and yet it didnt work!! OMG..im in total lost!! well after lots of attempts, what else we're supposed to do!! pray to Him that izzah will eventually go to the toilet and do her thing there!!
at last...few days before she starts her kindy..suddenly i saw her starting going behind the sofa, nak mula kan aktiviti die..i urge her to go straight to the potty..and to my amazed she did that exactly...hooraayyyy!!!! after that we cheered and praise her and went straight to Toys r us and bought her 'Jessie' the cowgirl character from toy story 2 (as promised,hehe)
luckily they still sell it here..(kalu Toys r us kat sbg parade yg hampeh tu jgn harapla aderr).Gosh...what an experience..dahsyat betul..nak amik exam x teruk camni..kene crack kepala mikir idea..
well now izzah is enjoying her kindy, she starts to remember her friends n teachers' name ( ooh they have a teacher and asst teacher..common thing here..in primary schools they have up to 3 teachers at a time in a classroom..imagine thattt!!!)
the assistant teacher..mrs tacher..look at the back of the pic..all the bags are hanged on the wall..the children has to hang the bags themselves..(teach them a thing or two about being independant ;))
im hoping the best for izzah..and at the same time..so that she can learn to make frends and other things at schoolits actually another challenge for me as a mother, u know its a new routine..wake up early morning, prepare her lunch box, send her to school n pick her up..hihi..lesser time surfing n blogging eh now..ermm guess i need to arrange my priorities in my time now

Thirty One
Alhamdulillah.... Thank u Allah..
Its 17 minutes now..im already 31 years old...
First things first..thank u Allah for given me this life and rizq for me n my family to live on this earth..im thankful that my belief is still with Him and hopes He guides me to become a better person in the future..
Looking back for the past 31 years, the only thing i remembered or at least people have been saying is that i have always been a talkative and active girl ever since i was small..
There have been dark times in my life where i couldnt care less about my life, studies and future. alhamdulillah Allah has guided me out of this path.
Like everyone else..every life journey has its story.
For the past 31 years..there has been a stage of inferior due to such mockering and comparison between me and other people.. as i am not that pretty nor that brilliant in my teenage years..
i have learnt that education can help bring back my dignity..i fought for the best for me n my family to open the eyes of those people..
with education, i set my goal..and direct my every move towards that goal..Years of struggling..at last i was there, i was comfortable..having almost everything..
ooh well.. He knows whats best for us.. as we can only plan..
suddenly i was frustated..devastated..and lost hope in life..the mockerings came back..i fall hard and thought i wouldnt climb back and stayed down below forever!!
i fought my way back with His help and thinking that He had given me new hope in life, I begin a new chapter in my life with a different goal to lead..
Although the nature of men never fails to test my patience..
I soon learnt that men will be men..let them be..as i will now focus on my new goal...
I am now praying hard to have a blessed life ahead of me,become a better person spiritually and able to carry responsibilities bestowed upon me whole-heartedly..as i am only a servant and with soo many faults and imperfection in me.
Ameen..

25th Jan 2009
The date above was my mom's bday..Happy Birthday Mak..hehe..
this entry is really a backdated one.. anyway ive been meaning to post it anyway when im free and have the right thing to say..
My family havent been celebrating bdays for quite some time..mainly everyone was busy and celebrated only when evryone is around for a small gathering..it was always a belated celebration...and some family members may even forget each other's bdays.. its normal i guess when a family is growing..bday celebration would then be focused mainly towards the children..
but anyway, i hope i will always remeber my family member's bday..until like...forever!! haha...its nice to wish isnt it..but for my frends.. maybe the close ones not all..giler ke..punyer la ramai..
oohh..back to my mom..on this day..i pray to Allah to give my mom the stregth, health and wisdom to stand on this wonderful world Allah has created for us..
Semoga Allah tingkatkan iman, murahkan rezeki dan sentiasa limpahkan rahmat dan rahimNya ke atas ibuku..
although the time spent with my mom was not as often as before.. but it sure is nice knowing that she's still there when i need her..and hopefully i can be there when she needs me..

chapati la plak...
hahahaha just look at that chapati...woooo syukur alhamdulillah...
after several cooking class with mak..alhamdulillah berjaya jugak wat chapati..yeeeayyyy!!! x yah beli lagi...
selalu wat sebelum ni mmg end-up jadi cam flying saucer..what does that mean??
oh..when u put the chapati straight up ward, it wouldnt bend down..it kept straight like a flying saucer..hahahaha maksudnyer apa..keras la tu...x lembut!!
so kali ni hubby nyer test pertama is to put it straight upward..hahahah and it bend down nicely...waahh x sangka akhirnye leh wat..rupanye dulu silap sbb air x cukup panas n cara menguli salah..pas mak tgk how i did it..then mak bitau cara tu salah..
and same as my roti puri..pas tanya jaja baru tau what i did wrong...so the next one would be roti puri hhehehe...
we ate with kari sardin n teh tarik...hihi
ooh carenye mudah ajer..masa tu guna
2 cawan capati
1 cawan tepung gandum
1 mangkuk air suam panas..
sedikit garam
sedikit minyak
gaul dua2 tepung ngan garam, masukkan air panas, kacau ngan tangan secara clockwise..biler dh rata sumer tepung kene air n looked macam breadcrumb kasar yg besar2 pastu
* note - tak perlu tuang semua air dlm tepung, masukkan sikit demi sedikit n gaul clockwise sampai jadi breadcrumb kasar..bila adunan tepung dah jadi breadcrumb kasar..x perlu masukkan air lagi..go to the next step.
masukkan minyak sampai boleh diuli jadi doh..nk tau die lembut masa nak tarik putuskan doh tu mudah x, elastic sgt..
minyak tu agak2 je, maybe approximately..1/2 cawan minyak to 3/4 cawan minyak..
uli smpi minyak xde di jari..sbb akan diresap oleh doh..
then bulat2 kan sebesar bola golf..golekkan dlm tepung gandum biar x melekat masa canai..and goreng atas kuali / flat pan, under a big fire..
masa nk terbalikkan sapu minyak sapi/minyak biasa.
bile dh coklat serata sumer boleh angkat..
