Faris and Ariana
Faris is now 4 years and 8 months, Ariana 2 years and 2 months. Bought a pink bicycle for Ariana's birthday present at Toy r Us, Midvalley for RM219.
Faris is now attending kindergarden at Q-Dees Amanputra under Teacher Gan. Schools fees is RM309 per month compare to RM238 before at his old kindy. Before this he's attending school at Brainy Bunch, also at Amanputra from when he's 3 1/2 years old. We figured that he's better be left off at school rather than talking indon with Bibik! He said he liked the new school better for reasons known only to him. If we ask him he just doesnt know how to answer. Either way, I am glad that the process of transfer went smoothly. Despite him crying every morning when asked to bathe :P
Travel
From the last post, we have been to US in Nov 2011 visiting Abg Li and family in LA and from there we went to San Francisco and Las Vegas. We met Kak Shafinaz in SF and had dinner at Franciscan Crab. Hand over Kak Finaz's order of Kopi Hang Tuah and Kak Finaz gave me 1 big packet of Giradelli's chocolate. Lovely! Had a great time is US despite the difficulty in handling the 2 kiddos. We will always be the last one out from airports (in Taiwan for transit and in LA).
We also went to Ho Chin Minh, Vietnam in Nov 2012 with mak, abah, Ayu, Cik and Lina for 4 days and 3 nites.
Wedding in the family after a long hiatus (9 years after MY wedding)
Aiz getting married this Friday, 1 March 2013 and the reception on the bride's side on the next day in Majidee, JB. Taking leave and Faris had to ponteng 1 day for the occasion.
Umrah
After that we would be going for umrah in April 2013 for 12 days with Andalusia Travel and Tours. Cost RM5890 for 2 in a room. I suggested to hb to go for ziarah to Jordan but hb was not agreeable. His idea is to concentrate on doing ibadah and not to melencong thinking about travelling. Hmmm...We have attended the talk on umrah on 23 February, delivered by the entertaining Ustaz Daud Hj Che Ngah. Despite the very uncomfortable seating (it was really sesak with some of them sitting on the stairs and kaki semut2 duduk atas lantai) and all, i really concerntrating on the talks as I had zero knowledge on umrah before. Plus I had no attire suitable to go to the holy place. Baju yg ada semua tak bermoral, all I have for jalan2 are jeans and t-shirt, HRC t-shirts, lots of it :) .Baju lain kalau ada pun tak muat since I put on weight like nobody's business the past few years. Need to exercise more and watch what I put in my mouth.
Need to do some research on where to buy the tudung, appropriate shoes, spray bottle for wudhu', jubah and socks.
Work
Work had been hectic lately, donno why but as the most senior among the execs, a lot of work had been referred to me, esp by the subsidiaries when they were supposed to give them to my boss first. I hate doing the file on India, had no knowledge of Indian laws and people that is supposed to know and decide doesnt want to do their part. But I had to bear with it all since I was not encouraged to change workplace. Hmmm..
Side Business
Now waiting for my agent in US to confirm my shipment to Malaysia. Can wait for it to arrive as it contains a lot of my personal things! Heheh.. among others, the KitchenAid mixer, 3 in 1 Samsonite bags, not forgetting my Corelle and Coach :)
I still bake cakes when there are orders, but limited to a few type of cakes, Red Velvet, Cheesecake, Orange cake, Prune cake and the layer choc cheese cake. Now I have orders for RV cupcakes for C.yam's sister and Kek Sujee for Emma. Today delivered a caramel cheesecake to Eezan for Aizat's birthday.
That's all folks!
