Last weekend, we all went to Tampin to accompany Ibu n Abah balik kampung. Ibu has assist in looking after Isyia since she were born (staying at Along's). So, Ibu was quite sad when we're going back to PJ the next day. Isyia too. On Monday, when everybody went to work, Isyia seems searching for Wan and cried. Sian Isyia. Now on day five without Ibu in Along's house, Isyia slowly adapt to the current situation. And if lucky enough, her Ibu (Along) would come home earlier than usual. Sukanya Isyia masa tu :D
Quite sleepy today as last night I went to Saba' (CJ) with AE, N and MT for our dinner. That was my second time eating there. Not bad actually. Arabian cuisine. I have Kabsyah Chicken and Lemon drinks. Yummy! Feels sorry for AE and MT though, as they have an early morning flight to catch. AE to Bandung while MT to Alor Setar. Hopefully everything went smooth for them. Ameen.
Our next trip would be....Kedah! InsyaAllah :)

Sabah: Akhirnya Ketemu Jua
On Thursday, 6th May 2010, I have applied half day leave and supposed to leave office around 1pm. But I guess it's too good to be true as I headed home at 4.45pm, finally. So that night, after a quick packing, I went staright to Daf's house as all seven of us will depart to LCCT from there very early in the morning.
The next day, Friday, as early as 5am, we hit the aiport and ready to go. It has been quite some time for me travelling with friends (I think the last one, nearly four years ago). So, I'm a bit excited eventhogh without absolute consent from my SM. Haha. Luckily my M is so sporting and willing to take over my task when I'm away. Thanks M.
On the flight, I have spaghetti for my breakfast (kids meal serve with ribena ;p). Around 9am we're in KK already. Ready to travel by car (we drive on our own). But among the four of us (another three hit Mount Kinabalu - the climber I would say. Well done guys!), I'm the only one being a passenger all the time during the four-day-trip. The rest taking turn in driving the car. Oh ya. We changed to another car in one hour time since the former car suddenly keep turning off its engine when we slow down the car or changing to reverse gear. Quite scary.
The first stop after we've checking in at Eden 54 hotel (KK) and having our lunch at Inanam, we went to Mari-Mari Cultural Village (Inanam). The entrance fee was quite high per person. But since the tour took about 3 and 1/2 hours (high tea is included) with various activities (we even taking parts in dancing -the bamboo dance, sumpit, inai decoration, cooking using bamboo etc, we have a really nice time there :D. We have our dinner later at Sri Selera Kampung Air (seafood) near our hotel. Delicious & reasonable price. What a great combination.
On Saturday, the second day, we went to Jesselton Jetty for our next adventure. I've done few first-time-activities-in-my-life that day. After settling the payment and all, at 8.30++am, off to Manukan Island. On the way there, our boat driver asked whether we want to do our parasailing in the middle of the sea or when we get near to the island. He suggested that we do the activity now as the wind is good at the moment. So, we did! And even though that was my first time plus consider that I'm quite "gayat", it was definately one of the best moment in my life! The scenery was breathtaking. We have about 20mins for one session (two person at a time). Once we reached the island, we changed and couldn't wait touch our feet in the sea. For the warming up, we went banana boating (once again in the middle of the sea). Luckily, we didn't fall (dah mention earlier kat the driver cakap tanak jatuh.haha). After that, we put on our gear and ready to snorkelling. Subhanallah. Sangatlah cantiknya keindahan alam yang Allah ciptakan. Shahnaz and Zue went farther and saw some nemos and one particular nemo called Tamako (named by the lifeguard who assist both of them to get there) was really tame. They hold Tamako in their hands and it didn't struggle at all. Best!
On our third day (Sunday), we drove for two hours to Kundasang. The road was quite curvy like going to Cameron. Alhamdulillah, the journey was smooth including our hiking activity at Kinabalu Park. Have our lunch in Ranau and back to our resort at Kundasang. Accomodation there was a bit expensive. I think it accommodates with the view there. Our room just opposite the Mount Kinabalu. Beautiful...That night we went for karaoke. Three of us more like observer than backup singer. Hehe.
On our last day (Monday), we went to Poring Hot Spring then drove back to KK. Pick up our laundry at Eden 54 (sempat lagi tu buat laundry ;p), and off to the airport. Meet the other three there. At 8pm, we reached LCCT and took two cabs home.
All in all, one memorable holiday I would say :D.

To Kill A Mocking Bird
First Sunday of May, AE and me planned to play tennis together at PJ, somewhere around Along's house. Unfortunately, since I haven't book any of the court, we ended up playing bowling instead after having breakfast at Along's.
While we're bowling, Along called and asking me whether we would like to join them (BIL, Isyia) to butterfly park. AE said ok. On our way there, Along called again said they already finished touring the park. So, after dropping something at AE's house, we rejoin Along and the geng at PJ. We have our lunch together again at Along's including ibu and abah.
After lunch me and AE stay at the dining table to watch To Kill A Mocking Bird. Credit goes to AE to found the movie :D.
A great movie I would say. Of course the duration of the movie limit of putting all the scenes in the book into the movie. But still I enjoyed the warm relationship between Atticus and Scout.
Next Activity: Kedah?

GIN BLOSSOMS - "As Long As It Matters"
Been introduced to this song. Love it. And I enjoy the melody very much. Nice and relax. Eventhough as always, seems can't understand the whole story in a song. Hehe.
"As Long As It Matters"
How can I find something
That two can takeWithout stumbling as we
Walk into our future's wake
I'm like a broken record
That you can play
Repeating as if it matters
Everything I want to say
I'll be all rightAs long as it matters
As long as you're here with me now
Forget that time
It's nothing we touch and see
All this is fine
Even as it crashes down on me
I'm looking around
There's nothing that I could want
More than to tell you
There's no more than we've already got
I'll be all right
As long as it matters
As long as you're here with me now...

Isyia & Dinner
Last Sunday morning, me, Aolng n Kak Nim went to PICC park. Kitorg main slide, see-saw, swing etc. (Nasib baik tak patah :p). After a while Isyia dah start getting sleepy n all went back. On the back home, Isyia dah selamat tido.
After Zuhur, I made a move to my friend's house. We planned to watch Date Night and find To Kill A Mocking Bird's DVD afterwards. We enjoyed the movie but sadly we can't found the wanted DVD. Apparently, a classic movie is somehow become so hard to find now. Around 7pm, my friend's dad invited me to dinner. He suggested a place that currently open and it's main menu is steak. After Maghrib, we all went together. Since I'm not much of a steak person, I chose sea bass as my main course. Later, as it's getting late, my friend accompanied me home (convoy by car). On my way back, Along rang me. She advised me to take a Wudhu' before seeing Isyia.
After Isya', I went to Along's room (Isyia's fast asleep) and asked why she did she said like that. Then, Along told me that late evening, she, her husband, Kak Nim and Isyia have a drink at a mall. Around 7.30++pm, they watched a colourful water fountain. When they arrived home, Isyia who seems very sleepy on the way back, ofter changing her clothes, she's being put into her baby cot. Suddenly, a weird thing happened. She laughed real hard like someone teasing her. Along said, she's so cute with the continues laughing and giggling, yet quite a creepy scene as no one was playing with her. And she kept looking at one place. Then, Along and Kak Nim switch on Zikir and Surah cd and suddenly Isyia start crying. Both Along and Kak Nim got a goosebumps at the same time when they kept repeating Ayatul Qursi. After a short while, Isyia seems to be at her normal self and start yawning. Finally she slept peacefully. Alhamdulillah.
Moral of the story: Never bring a baby outside the house/building at night particularly during Maghrib.

How To Train Your Dragon
Quite lama gak tak update blog. That's why bila update pun citer lama. Tak kisahlah. Asal update tak. Haha.
About a month ago (was it? halal je lah) I watched How To Train A Dragon twice. With different company of course. And different weekend. The first one was with AE and the second with Feens.
Memang best. Feens pun cakap best. Kan kan feens. Hehe. (By the way, payung belum ada kesempatan nak guna lagi ah. :p). The story line was smooth and the script was funny that you can laugh again or wait to laugh. Plus the dragon pun cute. Ala ala Stich (Lilo & Stich..err betul ke spelling?).
Since we watched the movie at the Curve, we decided to have our lunch at one restaurant called An-Nur (correct me if I'm wrong). Feens yang suggest the place since she has read it in one of her novel. Hehe. The food was quite ok for me as I'll always order mee bandung at a new place which I found every restaurant will somehow cook the dish at the same taste (not exactly the same but eatable lah kira). Can't remember what did my friend order but she's not quite happy with the ordered food. Well, at least we knew the place when we came across the name again in another novel. :D.
We cam across another restaurant called The Garden. I saw few ladies wearing big fancy hats while having their evening tea there. So, I said to my friend "kena beli topi beasr dulu ni baru kita gi makan kat sini".
Apparently, I don't have to buy a big fancy hat since last weekend (10th April), Saturday night, me, AE and sister and their three friends went to The Garden for dinner. I had fish fillet. It was delicious. But a bit muak afterwards since banyak jugak cheese.
The next day I went to my friend's daughter nya cukur jambul with Fatin. I drove all the way there with Fatin's help of course. Tak sesat tu. ;p. Oh ya. Tin, thanks your hubby for the smart tag kay. Hehe.
This coming weekend, maybe I will be a full time babysitter for the cute Isyia. She can crawl and stand now. And like to mumble a lot. Plus I want to finish reading To Kill A Mocking Bird so I can borrow the DVD soon.

"North or South"
On Friday 2nd April, I have made a plan for the next day to join AE and sister plus their three friends to Universal Studio. Suddenly, Along called and mentioned about "balik kampung" plan. And of course the next day too.
North or South. Since Ayah's birthday is on 6th April, I decided to join Along balik kampung. We started our journey Saturday morning at 11am. Arrived at 6pm (after a quick shopping for Ayah's present). Having a nice dinner at a nearby restaurant. Celebrating Ayah's birthday with a yummie Secret Recipe cake. The next morning, aorund 11am, we make a move back to PJ. Arrived around 9pm.
So, US maybe next time ye.
