mY babY aLL grown Up...

i spend most of my weekends hybernating lately. staYed in bed abit late and went fishing wif the guys in kiama. Ngu (MYAP-Malaysian Alstom Malaysia) came to site for the technical clarification but ended up vacationing in Wollonggong instead. went for some lousy abOrigin show and coffee afterwards at shellharbour. laid back weekend for me as i was a bit tired to go to sydney. We..me abg harris and swee zhi got a $179 ticket for salah parking.dammit..decided to split it, tapi 2 of us aje yang nak split, the other makcik buat bodoh aje. tOo much to ask aah. That managed to spoiled my whole weekend...

On a more cheerfull note...

MamitO called... Updates on news from malaysia..bad..bad auntie..i forgot my baby's b'daY.WArmest birthday wishes with a couple of wet kisses and un-breathable hugs by the side goes out to mY adorable lil babY...babY aRief haKimi... dah besar dah my lil prince

saw some of the b'day pix on kak ijah's Blog. ( www.sup-ekor.blogspot.com) nice. my baby is all grown up. It feels like it was only yesterday i walked into the labour room. welcoming him to the world.stiLL can't belive that i'm an auntie. started using the "MamaNa" title..an hOnouR. it tOok me a few weeks or was it months that i managed to gather aLL my guts and cradle him in my arms.at that point of time, the world stood still, it's just me and my baby.for everything else there's master card..moments like this priceless..*sempat lagi aku wat ikLan mastercard*

It still feels as if it was an hour ago when i was proudly cradling my love in chop and steak and tak tau macam mana ... i ter-dropped him on the floor. Got a very warm public scolding session from ummi ijah..how i wish i could tell ummi ijah that it wasn't done intentionally and i wouldn't do such a thing to my lil precious ?..i've guarded him with my life.(mental note.. high heels, baby in arms and uneven ground is not a good combination). I was holding back tears as i stomped my way out of the restaurant.Guilt was eating me alive.. How could i be so reckless and dropped my "beloved lil prince ?".BAd auntie.. very bad auntie indeed...

and now... on his b'day, his mamaNa is nowhere to be found. takpe...next time i promise we'll have his belated b'day party once mamaNa is back."mamaNA gi mana ayep ??"..maMAna gi WORK !!!

Hope that he likes his spidey Outfit that mamaYa, papaLI and mamaSu have picked out for him.

for baby arief.. happy b'day darL.. despite the fact that now dah jadi abg ayep..but u'll always be MamaNA's lil baby ...mOOOAhhhss from afar..missing u every moment of the day...and you readers tOo...

p/s : ummi ijaH..post aa picture ayep in his spidey suit..sure cute gileR

slaP me awake...

it's bad ... really2 bad .. normally i'll drag my half asleep feet out of the house at 6 so that i can reach site in time by 6:30 and the morning dosage of cafine at the pantry will boost up the whole sleepy me. Winter is just around the corner and big cafine dosage is crucial to warm me up and keep me up and running throughout the day..

but not for today... the coffee machine broke down.. darn!!! no freshly brewed of coffe ??? huh ??? there's only nescafe and milk and it taste like crap as fresh milk dont go well wif nescafe.
the existing coffee machnine was flown all the way from Qeeensland from our previous Breamer site. that piece of metal cost AUD2k...bl*0dy expensive aye'? nak dekat RM6k kalau convert. and now it's not functioning. kena tunggu expert datang repair all the way from sydney. I heard something wrong with the bean grinder. shOOT!!! everybody in a shiTty mood today. feels like kicking the machine ... give it a good knock..bang here..bang there..maybe it might do the trick ...mind the faulty lang in the morning...hope i'll survive the day... you guys have a good day ahead

LOve mY love handles....

...blame it on the weather...
freezing cold lately kat sini. at times it could go down to 10C and it's not even winter yet. The freezing wind is really terrible. sampai tulang. i enjoy the sun ... but bile sesejok nih lemah lutut.

daily wear..no more skimply lil baby tee as i have to be in layers, 3 at least. The winter uniform do helps a bit but then kalau memang dah tak tahan sejok, bungkus berapa lapis pun tak jalan gak ..

weather like this...you tend to eat more..cepat lapaq..no excercise...wonderful ain't it ? balik umah ..makan ..tidoq...whatever i pop in to my mouth ends up as one of my many collection of love handles. darn!!!

Now the site are flooding wif people from Malaysi4 as 3 of them are here to do auditing. It had been 2 days in a row that we bring them out for dinner.so another round of "button bursting" session complete with ice-cream for desert. shoOOTT!!! by the end of the week i think i can't even fit into the door. sO have to stop this...or better still someone gimme a jackhammer i need to knock down my door...*wink*

.....Yup...yup...dah tembam... tau...tau.. liposuction needed as well...

Our journey started from Central Train Station to ChinaTown..paddYmarket (macam petaling street)...Queen Victoria bUilding (QVB), the cathedraL, down george street, the Rock..all the way to Circular quaY and ended in The Opera House...

JAuh ?? tak laH...6km walk aje *macam nak tercabot kaki* Pit stops here and there..Coffee BReaks whenever we bumped into st4rbucks. The weather was splendid not to cold it was 16C.

Dry yer eyes mate,,,

This came in my mail bOx from lil bob o'mine...

perfect words for my state oF life.need not have to add any, as iT speaks by itselF..
*thanks DArL*....The World forgetting..By the World forgot...

No, fly me, fly me, far as pole from pole;
Rise Alps between us! and whole oceans roll!
Ah, come not, write not, think not once of me,
Nor share one pang of all I felt for thee.
Thy oaths I quit, thy memory resign;
Forget, renounce me, hate whatever was mine.
Fair eyes, and tempting looks (which yet I view!)
Long loved, adored ideas, all adieu!
Oh Grace serene! oh virtue heavenly fair!
Divine oblivion of low-thoughted care!
Fresh blooming hope, gay daughter of the sky!
And faith, our early immortality!
Enter, each mild, each amicable (i.e. peaceful) guest;
Receive, and wrap me in eternal rest!

How happy is the blameless vestal's (i.e. pure) lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each prayer accepted, and each wish resigned...

You managed to cheeR me up when everything else failed..

my titaniC

It's nearly a month since i've been away from home. homesick?? dah tak sangat but still have to "berlakon" so that tak dpat title "tangganG lupe darataN"....
i managed to get the whole "tune" of living in kampung w0llongg0ng...
Life is totally different here compared to back home in malaysi4..

My daily routine would start as early as 5 cz i've to be at site by 630am.work finishes at 5:30, but then 5 o'clock sini dah gelap gulita. most of the shops even malls closes at 6pm. Except on Thursday (paydaY- which will be extended until 9...). I'll hit the bed at 9...Huh ?? iNa tido kUl 9 ?? boley masok Ripley's belive iT or noT...bUt that's the fact... *i'm not writing this to impress Mamito or what so ever....* Most of my late night outing would be on the weekends but since i'm in this dead town of wollongong..nowhere to go..eventhough sydney is just 90 km away, with all the speed limits and stuff by the time sampai sana dah penat. I rather stay in and hybernate..

My weekends would be filled with outdoors activities, swimming, sight seeing, lazing around on the beach, Groceries shopping,doing laundry, dvd marathon, morning coffee at abg harris's, sessi makan2 membuncitkan perot..etc.

It may sound interesting to be abroad..but personally i don't feel like it. Lain kot kalau mase student dulu where u're surrounded by friends. sTudying and working abroad is totally different. lelaGi Now dah tua-tua nih, the pace, the mentality dah lain.

i'm in solitude misery....
tO make things worst is that i felt as if i have lost my sense of belonging, drawn apart...i was very close to my family and friends (and i wish i still am..) but the distance kills it all...

for the first few days.. it still feels as if i'm still close to them despite the fact that we are million miles away but then as time passed by, things started to give in...baru sedar..who much things have and will change. It doesn't take even a month for me to realise that my decision on being here will bring great changes in my overall life..

i will no longer will be the the person that i used to be..

"the naughty iNa" to mamito and papito- who will always balik lambat cz coffee wif friends until wee hours of the night..
i'm no longer "the kak iNa" to my 3 adorable spoiled siblings"- who used to bring them outings and spoil them with forbidden food during weekends...
i'm no longer "the lil iNA" to kak ijaH - who used to sakat dia and lovingly "condemn" her in whatever she does...
i'm no longer "the mamaNa" to my precios two babies - who used to teach ayep with wonderful-mamaNa-self-boasting-greetings such as "hi georgeous" & "hi beautiful" and sufficate aufa wif my kisses...
i'm no longer "iNa"to my best friends who could spend endless long hours over coffee and talkkok...

out of sight..oUt oF touch ???

someone did ask me back then..."will long distance relationship/friendship work ouT ??" at that point of time my answer was.."sure..all it takes is a little effort and lots of trust to keep things afloat..." but now... i think my ship is sinking....

alieN ???

This is what i'm stucked with ....*click for bigger Version*
