..Rainbow, the colours of my life..

I love rainbow colours. It is so vibrant, alive and inspiring. Take my word because I used to hate colours other than blue, black and white. Boring, I know but for a person who looks at BLACK like RED knows the exact feeling of it. You get what I mean?

It’s ok if you don’t get it. Do I look like I care? Harshnya kan? Kekeke… jangan marah, gurau senda jer.

Anyways, motif hari ni adalah nak cerita tentang saya dan keluarga tidak berapa nak sihat. Batuk, Selsema dan Demam, all in one. Jadik, untuk menceriakan hari ku yang sedia MALAP, saya telah buat RAINBOW CAKE. Suka. Suka. Suka.

Arghhh! Sendiri gila tengok the BRIGHT colours... :p.

Sapa suka sila angkat tangan jugak yer?

Wow! It’s like forever I tak masuk dapur and guna oven tu. Initially, I stop baking sebab dalam phase DIETING but sekarang ni, even though masih belum achieved THE WEIGHT THAT I WANT, I pasrah bake jugak sebab Sunday ni dah nak fly ke Austin AGAIN!!! *yawn*

Jadiknya, semalam bersama-sama Encik Syafi di dapur, terhasillah KEK PELANGI I LOVE YOU… muahahahaha… nak jugak letak nama glam, kan?

Mula-mula, I tolong pegang kan..

Lama-lama, nak pegang sendiri, okeh???

Simboliknya kek ini, bukan hanya pada warnanya tapi juga pada rasanya yang MANIS. Chewah! Kaler yang banyak menunjukkan kegembiraan dan keceriaan dan manis itu, adalah momen-momen yang indah bersama keluarga. Fuyoooo! Ok ker?

But seriously, sedap pulak makan weih! Hahahaha…. Sila jangan muntah I puji my own cooking yer. Is not everyday that I love the things that I cooked.

..Not So Quick and Not So Easy Recipe : Ayam Panggang Rosemary..

2 sudu besar jus limau

3 sudu besar olive oil ( minyak zaitun)

5 biji kentang

2 biji tomato

6 biji baby carot

Cara penyediaan

1. Ayam di potong 4 atau dibiar tidak di potong kemudian dibersihkan. Ketepikan dulu. Tumbuk halia hingga lumat kemudian perah jus halia pada ayam. Gaul rata.

2. Panaskan minyak zaitun. Goreng bawang putih hingga kekuningan. Angkat dan ketepikan dulu.

..Syafi-the-Toddler Turns 21 and 22 Months Old..

“Nak kena ni!!! Ooooooo…” cakap Syafi to Kakak when Kakak did something to him. Bijak sungguh anak Mama ni ekkk ;).

Mastered Skills

• Kicks ball forward *Yes, Syafi sudah master this. Alhamdulillah.*

• Form three or four word sentences *Not so sure on this. Need to check*
• Use up to 40 or more single words *Yang ni berbalik kepada yang di atas, sebab tak sure berapa banyak words actually. Tapi, tahu yang dia ada belajar new words everyday ;).*

Wow… susah jugak sebenarnya kan nak monitor ni sebab most of the time cam tak perasan jer. Sungguh tidak prihatin diri ku ini. Tak per, slowly akan ku cuba jadik IBU yang lebih berjaya. Insyallah!

Syafi bergambar dengan his OBSESSION which is LORI.... suka gile, ok???

..Being BUSY is so COOL, ok? :p..

Hahahaha.. Statement di atas is supposed to be SARCASTIC yer!!!! So, sila baca dengan nada dan intonasi yang betul ;).

Sekarang ni, serious tak tahu where are all my TIME GONE TO. Nak menulis BLOG pun giler tak sempat. Nak baca BLOG orang nak HOP-HOP pun dah susah sangat. Kalau dulu, bila ada sikitttt pun masa terluang dah terus ke dapur membaking apa-apa yang patut, sekarang ni OVEN tu cam tak terusik langsung. Huhuhu.

Sedih memang sedih. Tapi, apakan daya, masa AMAT-AMATLAH jeles dengan I. Ini semua angkara FT Project (yang menyebabkan I perlu berulang-alik Cyberjaya-Austin every month or 2 months once!) and also, semenjak-dua menjak I jadik STUDENT balik.

Ye, macam dah tak cukup benda kan. Dah tahu sibuk dengan kerja, BIJAKKKK sangat lah time tu jugak nak FURTHER STUDY… kekekeke…

Tapi, apa nak buat. STUDY tu adalah untuk masa hadapan. LONG-TERM nya planning, so nak tak nak, terpaksa ku gagahkan jua!! Apa-apa pun, cerita pasal STUDY tu akan ku cerita di next entry yang entah tak tahu bila. Butttt.. kebarangkalian amat tinggi dalam tahun ni jugak lah insyallah, entry tu maybe akan keluar kat BLOG. Kekekeke… sebabnya, bila dah akhir tahun cam ni. Ramai orang putih kat US tu dah cuti, so kerja cam agak stable lah dan boleh kot nak start menulis BLOG and BLOG-HOPPING or BLOG-WALKING lepas ni ;).

So, nampaknya 2012 adalah a VERY BUSY YEAR for me. FT Project should GO-LIVE in October 2012 and my studies pulak should habis in December, hence FINAL EXAM dalam that month jugak lah kot. Gerunsss bila dengar EXAM ni. Hahahaha… First assignment dah dapat dah, due in April. Satu hapa pun lum buat lagi. Haih~ *Aini, sila rajin and jangan malas-malas.*

Oklah… dah penat menaip, merepek meraban kat sini. I’ll be back, hopefully very soon coz ada banyak cerita basi yang nak di luahkan. Hehehe..

As for now, let's take a break with MAGNUM. Nyum... Nyum.. Nyum..

Gembira sungguh kami menikmati MAGNUM.. Hehehe... sedap you alls!

..Tanpa Mereka Tentunya Kehidupan Ku Tidak Ceria @ Austin..

Business Trip ke Austin adalah tanpa kerelaan ku. Chewah! Yelah, lebih kurang cam paksa-rela gitu. Reason being, saya masih adalah full breastfeeding mother and also, pergi jauh-jauh, sorang-sorang tanpa family adalah tidak best. Especially, nak tinggalkan si kenit ku, Syafi itu! Huhuhu…. Sedih, ok?

Anyways, ku gagahkan jua mengharungi 27 jam perjalanan complete dengan duration dalam flight, waktu transit dan sebagainya. Penat punggung, wooo!!! Adalah sangat tak best jugak! Dengan iringan turbulence yang menghavockan isi plane menambahkan kegerunan dan tidak seronok. Penumpang lain siap menjerit tau! Ngeri I. Huhuhu… hanya kalimah Allah dan zikir yang meniti di bibir ku di waktu dan ketika itu. *Awww… nak try jadik penulis buku seperti buku Ombak Rindu kah ini? Kekeke… padahal tak baca pun. Ok melalut sudah :p.*

So, bila diri ini pergi ke sana di dalam keadaan paksa-rela, maka dengan itu, the whole trip seperti tidak best jer. Al-maklumlah, pagi petang asyik kerja-kerja-kerja. Time yang di tunggu hanyalah time nak SKYPE dan VIBER family di Malaysia sahaja.

Pada yang tidak tahu saya bekerja di mana. Haaaa! Inilah tempatnya. Jarang benar nak reveal kat mana, tapi kali ni.. belasah jer lah. Kalau tahu TAHU, tak tahu SUDAH. Boleh? :p.

Lonestar (New Building) : About 20 minutes from the Hotel

Nasib baik lah, ada jugak teman-teman dari Malaysia yang sudah sedia ada kat sana. Hehe. Mereka dah sampai lebih awal and mereka juga balik lebih lewat berbanding saya. Sebenarnya, kalau nak di ikutkan, masa kat Malaysia jarang benar borak dengan mereka. Dengan kata lain, tak kenal lah cumanya borak-borak pasal kerja sahaja except for Merdelyn lah. Dia memang saya agak rapat juga sebab she used to sit opposite me ;).

Dalam gambar di bawah adalah orang-orangnya. Kelly and Hui Pin from BW team. Merdelyn and also, Sham.

Oh ye! Tanpa ku sangka Sham ni adalah my junior kat AIM. Hahaha… lawak-lawak. Dahlah from the same Ex-Company, ok? Lepas tu, anak pun lahir tahun and bulan yang sama which is last year, February. Syafi lahir 18th Feb and anak dia lahir 20th Feb. Sungguh kecik rupanya dunia ini, kan?

The People that Made the Trip Less Boring ;).
Thank you, guys!!! *they don't even read this blog :p.*

Hari-hari saya di sana adalah sungguh sibuk. Yelahkan, kalau boleh dia nak squeeze semua benda time saya di sana. Meeting bagai nak gila. Back to back tanpa henti. Memang terasa suffocate jugaklah. Mujur weekend masih boleh bernafas. Phewww~ lega.

And saya nak kena ulang-alik from New Building to Old Building. Memang kelam kabut.

Me & Merdelyn Bergambar at the Old Building B3

Memandangkan saya dan Merdelyn seperti orang yang merempat sebab kami tiada tempat khas. Maka, kami pun sharelah satu cubicle dengan si Sham. Janji ada tempat duduk nak buat kerja. Actually, I do have a place for the project but kebetulan time tu nak cuti Thanksgiving so semua dah balik kampung. So, the BIG ROOM kosong and tak kuasa lah I nak dok situ sengsorang kan!!

Me & Merdelyn Bergambar @ Sham's cubicle

Kalau kat Austin ni, you will see everywhere LONGHORN. Nak tahu more of the history you all sila lah Google sendiri about it. Tapi, takat yang I tahu tempat ni ada banyak Texas Longhorn (Cattle).

So, if you tengok betul-betul even the bus stop kat sana seperti gambar di bawah ni, ada jugak lambang longhorn. And the colour is ORANGE. Pun I am not sure why :p. Silalah Google lagi yer!

Perasan tak the Longhorn symbol tuh kat the Bus Stand Pillars?

Memandangkan I ni pemalas nak arrange the pictures, so below are some pictures taken di Old Building. Gambar reramai tu is with orang-orang Mexico, Neoris team (our vendor). Memula Sham datang, these Mexicans pun ingat yang Sham ni Mexican jugak. Hahaha… ada rupa kot??? :p.

Me & Kelly in B3's Lobby

Me & Merdelyn also @ B3's Lobby

The Malaysian vs The Mexicans (Basis Neoris Team)

As I mentioned before kan, I kat sana memang busy giler with meetings. Sampaikan, dengan my Boss sendiri pun I tak berapa sempat nak tegur sapa. Jadik, my Boss ni set up kan lah makan malam kat Fonda San Miguel.

The food memang sodapppp! Of course yang I order are all vegetarian. Enchiladas, yummeh! Quesadilla superb! Nak makan lagi jer rasa. Hahaha…

One Night Having Dinner with My Boss and he brought his wife and 4 weeks old Baby

So, sebelum menutup tirai malam itu. Kami pun bergambar lah bersama-sama depan Fonda San Miguel Restaurant.

Top : Sham and Asad (my counter part)
Middle : Me & Merdelyn
Bottom : TH (Merdelyn's hubby), My Boss Drew and His Wife

Begitulah hari-hari ku di sana. Memang terasa kesunyian nya. Tapi, korang jangan bosan lak yer sebabbbbb… there will be more of Austin because I’ll be going there again in January 2012. Haih~

..Setiap Yang Hidup, Pasti Akan Mati..

Yesterday, I lost my cousin sister to Cancer. As much as I wanted her to still be ALIVE, I was relieved to see her GO because I know that would stop all her sufferings, struggling and battling with pains.

I was sad, very sad. She was my cousin sister whom I was closed to when I was young. She stayed with my family when she was in Form 5.

I still remembered the time where she was so worried of her weight and she’s controlling her food intake. Plus, she had this checklist whereby she ticks everyday just to indicate whether she did her ‘toilet business’ or not as she is not a ‘toilet business regular’, if you know what I mean :p.

She and my brother, Uzi always have this ‘Night Chit-Chat’ where I menyibuk jugak. Then, after SPM, while waiting for her results, she works part time kot kat Factory depan rumah. I pun tak berapa nak ingat sangat but I ingatlah, she told me about her friends and all. Tak silap, TOKO kot nama kilang tuh :p.

Tapi, itulah hakikatnya, “Setiap Yang Hidup, Pasti Akan Mati”. Daripada Nya kita datang dan kepada Nya kita kembali.

Akhir sekali, Al-Fatihah buat Arwah Kak Rina. Semoga dia di tempatkan bersama orang-orang yang beriman. Amin~

*Al-Fatihah*

Rabbani

Pergi Tak Kembali

Setiap insan pasti merasa
Saat perpisahan terakhir
Dunia yang fana akan ditinggalkan
Hanya amalan yang dibawa

Terdengar sayup surah dibaca
Sayunya alunan suara
Cemas di dada...lemah tak bermaya
Terbuka hijab di depan mata

Selamat tinggal pada semua
Berpisahlah kita selamanya
Kita tak sama nasib di sana
Baikkah atau sebaliknya

Amalan dan takwa jadi bekalan
Sejahtera bahagia pulang...ke sana

Sekujur badan berselimut putih
Rebah bersemadi sendiri
Mengharap kasih anak dan isteri
Apa mungkin pahala dikirim

Terbaring sempit seluas pusara
Soal-bicara terus bermula
Sesal dan insaf tak berguna lagi
Hancurlah jasad dimamah bumi

Berpisah sudah segalanya
Yang tinggal hanyalah kenangan
Diiring doa dan air mata
Yang pergi takkan kembali lagi

..On the Way to Austin KUL-HK-LAX-AUS..

I ni kan, nak kata peramah sangat tuh, tak dek lah pulak. Kadang, orang ingat I sombong pun iyer jugak. Bukan apa, yes, I do talk a lot but only to the people that I KENAL. So, tak dek lah peramah sangat if dengan STRANGERS ni. So, kiranya, I ni boleh di kategorikan as PEMALU? :p. Muahahahaha…

I am not a FAN of taking long flights with lots of transits. I mean, I do not mind a DIRECT FLIGHT for 13 hours like ke London, Manchester like zaman sekolah-sekolah dulu sebabnya very simple, it’s DIRECT FLIGHT so for the 13 hours tu, tak perlu nak turun plane, jalan and masuk plane balik kannnn? So, I can just SLEEP whole way through.

Buttttt… flight gi Austin ni, I dah mintak itinerary yang paling sikit transit and itupun kena stop kat HK and LA before sampai kat Austin.

Flight from KUL adalah pukul 9:25 pagi and perjalanan ke HK takes about 4 hours (actually less but tak kisahlah kan). Anyways, sampai kat HK airport tu, menggagau lah gak I nak carik the GATE.

Dalam pada dok tengok sana, tengok sini for transfer/transit tuh, ternampak sorang Kakak ni yang cam tengah tunggu and mencari-cari someone. Kakak tu senyum and tegur I. Actually, Kakak tu nak carik ‘orang-orang’ yang sekapal dengan dia yang nak pergi ke Saudi but since tak jumpa, dia pun ikut sekali I coz I think she was probably not so familiar with HK airport and needed a TEMAN ;). I ok jer memandangkan my flight to LAX lambat lagi, tapi tu ler I told her, I nak kena gi pam jap and nasib baik she understand so, she waited for me outside the ‘lactation room’. Kewl kan? Hehe..

Sambil both of us tunggu our departure we all pun berborak, bergambar and makan-makan @ Popeyes. In the limited time tu, dapatlah I tahu yang Kakak ni kerja kat Saudi as a nurse. She is working in the babies department. Thus, her pesakit semuanya adalah baby semata, sampaikan she still tak pandai cakap Arab even though she has worked there for 6 years sebabnya she communicate with baby in Malay jugak, katanya. Kah kah kah. Lawak ah Kakak tuh.

She is married with 5 anak dah besar-besar. She did mention gaji dia 5 figures tuh beb! Memang masyuk tapi tu lah, she has to be apart from her family. Hubby and anak-anak dia dok kat Johor. She only comes back once in 4 months, tak silap I. Oh well, life is like that. BIG money comes with BIG sacrifices.

Transit kat HK memang tidak membosankan sebab dapat jumpa orang-orang yang best ;). Lepas dah habis sesi bersama Kakak tuh, terjumpa pulak dengan one Chinese Guy from Malaysia yang ada training kat San Jose and then, ada Uncle ni from Indonesia nak pergi conference kat Guatemala. Hahaha… rajin betul orang-orang ni bukak mulut and borak dengan I kan? Tapi kannnn, memang rata-rata semua ingat I ni STUDENT, ok? Muahahaha… ada rupa student kah? Maybe because I was wearing my NERD LOOK SPECS? Kekekeke..

The next nice and good people that I met was on my way to Austin from LAX on the flight. She’s travelling with her 11 months old son. Haih~ geram ok bila tengok baby dia. Manataknya, aku dok teringat and rindu-rinduan kat Syafi so bila ada baby kat sebelah yang dok asyik pandang-pandang I jer, terpaksalah aku ni senyum and buat muka-muka comel sampai baby tersenyum and tergelak.

Since dah dok melayan budak kecik tu, lelama maknya bukak suara ajak borak. Teruslah we all pun bercerita. Sampaikan there’s this one time, she wants to do something but tak cukup tangan so I offered to hold her baby and dia bagi. Aku pun dukung and main-main with her baby kejap. 11 bulan tapi berat and besar, ok? Anak orang putih kot, ekk?

Jadik, all in all, kira tak dek lah SUNYI sangat I nyer flight ni kan. It’s colourful and I managed to make new friends, it’s an exciting journey for me.

Actually balik pun agak BISING sebab Uncle yang dok sebelah I, suka benarrrr lah ajak I borak. Hahaha… muka I muka peramah lah kot yer and bukan sombong kot lah kan? Otherwise, sah-sah tak dek sapa yang berani nak tegur I… :p.

Buttt I tak snap any pictures of them. Cuma gambar Kakak tu jer yang ada sebab lama lepak ngan Kakak tuh ;).

So, enjoy the piccas yang sikit ini :p. Jadiklah kan!

Me on My Student Look with Kak Yus from JB ;).

Proove that I have been to HK Airport :p.



..Good News vs Bad News..

Picture credit to click here

Kalau korang lah kan, which news would you want to hear first?

Is it the GOOD NEWS or the BAD NEWS?

Some would prefer to hear the GOOD NEWS first then only the BAD NEWS.

It’s like if you know the GOOD NEWS first, so you dah happy sangat so whatever BAD NEWS pun, it won’t dampen you.

Meanwhile, others like to hear the BAD NEWS first then only the GOOD NEWS.

And if you know the BAD NEWS beforehand pulak, it’s like you sedih kejap but after that, you will be extremely happy after that with the GOOD NEWS. Kannnn?

However, as for me, it doesn’t really matter on the sequence. Whatever sequence it may be, I just digest the GOOD NEWS and forget or ignore the BAD NEWS.

I throw away the negativity and absorb all the positive energy :).

*Apa lah aku merepek dah ni kan?*

 Actually nya, I just want to point out that today’s GOOD NEWS was my Austin trip next week from 10/12 – 23/12 has been cancelled.

Tapiiiiii, dalam pada itu… the BAD NEWS pulak ialah I still have to go to Austin for 2 weeks early January. Haih~ *Dah lah Kakak and Dedek baru jer naik sekolah balik, so memang agak kelam kabut lah for my hubby. Huhuhu*

 Tapi, tu ler… it’s work commitment. Ini pun dah kira ok because initially they want me to travel to Austin every month and each trip is 2 weeks.

So, it’s macam 2 weeks in Cyberjaya and 2 weeks in Austin. Gila apa?

Penat ok? The whole journey took me 27 – 30 hours, flying hours plus transit semua. My punggung dah kebas ok? Cam tak terasa dah kewujudan punggung ku… kekeke…

Walauapapun, as what my hubby says, let’s just go through this selagi boleh and not RUNNING from the problem as what we used to do.

So, hopefully there’s going to be a blessing in disguise after all these sacrifices made by all the people that I love.

Thank you very much especially to my hubby, Kakak, Dedek, Syafi and my parents too!

..Makan-Makan @ Austin..

Memandangkan dah berkurun and also, few friends dah dok tanya so, nampak gaya kenalah update blog gak :p.

Seriously, eversince I got back from Austin my life and my timings has gone haywire. Even the time I am writing this entry, I am actually on a ECC Transaction Data Meeting :p. Crazy, I tell you but that’s what I am going through now and moving forward for about a year or two. Huhuhu.

Sambil my ears have to suffer listening about the data transactions, data managers, timelines, delays and Go-Live dates, I have my own agenda in which is I nak jugak post pictures of foods that I have in Austin ;).

Since I tak sempat nak buat day to day punya story so, let me do it by subjects. Kekeke.

Marilah tengok apa yang saya makan sepanjang perjalanan ke Austin dan juga di Austin. Pendekata, apa-apa related dengan Austin lah, kiranya :p.

Seronok dapat jumpa Halal Food @ Hong Kong International Airport

Portion yang gedabaks and this picture is taken after makan, tau!

Lunch with CJ BW team @ Catfish Parlour. Sedap gaks.
Dah mintak size 'small' but still portion banyak jugak :p.

Satu Malam yang agak rajin untuk makan dinner so pencarian Halal Restaurant with Shem Hassan.
Portion yang besarrrrr jugak and so, Shem Hassan 'tapau' bawak balik hotel. Kekeke.

Food yang agak ENAK @ Kismet Cafe, Downtown.

Chicken Kebab Kismet Cafe.

Gambar besar di belah kanan adalah ingredients yang I beli untuk aktiviti memasak di Hotel.
Gambar belah kiri are the things that I berjaya masak for lunch and dinner :).

Jangan main-main kat Austin pun ada 'Java Noodles', ok? Sedap lah jugak!!

Red Lobster Restaurant but we all makan Fish jer sebab malas nak layan lobster. Hehe.
Food not bad but cepat muak sebab portion seperti biasa adalah BAGAKS.

THIS IS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE TRIP. EVERYDAY'S BREAKFAST.
Buat sendiri as in the mixture dah siap, tinggal nak letak kat the waffle maker and wait.
So, it's HOT-HOT-HOT and makan with butter and honey.
Mavelles!!!

I know I could write a better entry butttt with the limited time that I have and juggling between meetings, I supposed this is a good start. Kannn????
