sembang² with... kuE!

i maybe a bit slow in updating my blogs lately especially starting late 2009. but i have decided to make a good come back for this new year. like very soon, you will see me releasing quite a number of blog post that are still hanging there in my draft folder :) at the meantime, let me start with this~


WILKOMMEN!!!

to one and all...

so i wanted to start doing a topic (or two, or maybe more) of the week called sembang² with... kuE!, posted every sunday. i guess this is a good way for me to update this blog frequently. i will type a topic that i find discussable from other people's facebook status updates, give you my answer, and then hope you guys fill out the comments section with your answers or feedbacks! and hey... of course i will retype other names instead and take out the links and their profile pics for privacy purposes. how's that?

Zareen uishh mama melahap tak ajak eh..
Thu at 8:09pm

when i saw the above on last thursday, i was rather shocked. yes, if you are a mother too like me, i am sure you will think of how on earth a daughter can dare to mention 'melahap' to her own mother. this was where i got the new idea to come out with sembang² with... kuE!

alright, some may see its a family joke. but when a word that normally referred to animals, as only animal eat greedily like lion; i strictly do not think the word is good for humans too.

somehow or rather that shows our society today. often that was not acceptable last time is practically look upon as okay. if we say we are keeping up with times, it's true, but at the same time a culture is dying.

as a concerned citizen, i braved myself to type a comment:

hey... it's not good to say 'melahap' especially to a mother! i am not trying to be a busy body, but i guess it's not wrong to remind each other~ that's what we PTA committee at SMKRPK believe. thank you so much for the understanding.

my instinct is always right! i knew it in the first place when i typed earlier that i am gonna get all types of replies, including those who teased. and to the one who teased me, its alright, what goes around, will comes around. this is what we called life. i have been facing with all these through out my life!

i did go back to the page and replied some of the comments. some said that i worked in pta. walaweiii... pta is not a job ler, but its a community work instead. if its a job, i am very sure that many parents will be attending its agm with hope to be chosen as one of the committee members.

there's also people said i am fierce, aggressive. this is another~ if i am as such, i won't let my puteri to befriend with budak² koleq, or rmc and so forth! i make it a point to communicate well with my kids~ talk and discuss with them about life and whatever that could be discussed together. we must be someone that our kids could trust, to look upon to when they need us.

and here, i copy & paste lela's answer:

sometimes when we didn't know the real situation..we better remain silent or shud reserve our comment in the first place..the conversation was between me and my daughter and she didn't pointed it out to someone else! wat is wrong with melahap...just like i said..its family jokes...u also have family jokes right...then pls ignore ours!

since when lak every single words kt sini will be commented...unless very2 bad word she said to me!

if I were you i wont give any comments until the real story is revealed! nanti kena bang sana sini....if you already used to it...try la to change , sometimes people can't take it easily...tak seronok jugak sbb org asyik kata sana sini...kata kita being too bagus! everyone make mistakes..

some peoples are just dont bother about others family talk...even I also dont bother at all....each family has their own ways to keep and stay happy in life......

apa2pun..dont take this as big issue lah...kita masing2 ada anak n family...just give our full attention to them..bother lah ttg org lain...as long they are happy with their life...i feel happy too! I know my daughter very well..the words she often, sledom or never used!

to my darling angel...sian..nak berFB pun susah yer...hehehe
mama loves u so much...and don't ever ever use the word 'damn' here ok!! i know u wont!

anyway tq for the reminder...

lela actually was my school batch. it was really a surprising moment to see of what's happening now. i thought we must give good examples to our kids for our own future generation. i dunno lar... its up to the individual then i guess ;P


topic of the week #2:

Sue is a little bengang: Was@ a parking lot during lunch hr, saw this makcik with loads of stuff, navigating her way towards her car - behind her, 1 girl about my princess' age, she was walking towards middle of the road - i was on the opposite lot, saw a car approaching frm her rear, i ran across the road, pulled her aside... the makcik scolded me... 'Cina tak guna, tarik anak aku...' DUH!!!???
Fri at 5:14pm · Comment · Like

sue was eventually from my school also, a senior. no doubt she is the same sue i know from last time and always... in fact i drove to ipoh last 2 weeks just to have breakfast with her. believe it or not, that was the first time we met, after i left school about more than 20 years ago!

alright, its not to say that we are not in a spirit of 1malaysia, even if we are in 1family also might be have some miscommunication. what sue did was a 1malaysia spirit even though the result is a bit disappointed. well... lots of people don't see the "bigger" picture and these type of people are a big put off! but she did good in pulling the child to safety :)

according to sue, she did explain to the lady of what had happened. but too bad, the makcik was so blinded with rage, she couldn't care less... pity her...

project 365: 1st week—

day 1 — i thought to myself, what a good way for me to start this project 365 of mine with a picture of our home. this is part of a corner of our ‘green room’ which is quite synonym for our family's photography session especially during hari raya.

day 2 — i have just came back from town when i snapped this pic. i was on the look out for orange colour thread and satin ribbon. here’s what happened: we had an invitation from a young uncle for his new born son’s “kenduri marhaban” on 16th may 2009. mama asked of what we going to bring for baby ibby. since i had some 100% cotton cartoon print with matching plain orange fabrics, that i simply bought at the sunday market the week before (without knowing of what was it for); i had the idea to sew a simple tote bag filled with baby toiletries. i am so glad that they like our handmade gift.

day 3 — picture taken by megat, shown me with auntie zarina and baby ibby; at the kenduri marhaban held at a grand auntie‘s place in bukit chandan. normally functions like this are the chance for us relatives and friends to meet up out of our normal daily routine. i like...

day 4 — i was waiting for puteri to buy bread at a mini market when i saw this new banner hanged by a local café, the gate café at the back view of their café in jalan kangsar. they have been accused of serving non-halal food. i am sure they took drastic action this way to prove to kualé people that they actually served halal food. i myself was surprised at first when i heard about this as i knew that they employed malay cooks i.e. malay makcik and some malay guys.

day 5 — i as one of the committee members of my former secondary school’s PTA has been invited for the school’s teacher’s day celebration. this scene really reminds me of my school days huhu... i used to stand/sit there for five years of my secondary school’s life. we had our daily morning assembly there way from mama’s time, and now… its puteri‘s turn. can you spot her? it was so nostalgic i tell you. we could also see the wonderful panoramic view of the sungai perak from there.

day 6 — this view was from the back of aked mara building here in kuala kangsar. along this road as well, was the back part of the shop houses located along jalan kangsar in town. far end is megat’s school. i have just brought megat to see my uncle at his clinic when i snapped this pic. megat was coughing and has minor fever. he was so happy when my uncle gave him two days medical leaves :)

day 7 — i had just arrived from my former high school when i remembered that i haven’t take any pics of the day yet. so as you could see, that’s my stuff that i normally brought for any school’s PTA’ committee meeting and such: starbucks coffee 2009' diary and its meeting minutes papers. guess what people, i will be going to my school again this saturday for our OGA's AGM 2009!


it was a great week for this project even though its only the first week. can't wait to see the full results :)

the importance of PTA

i was at puteri's school (also my school) earlier for its PTA's annual general meeting (AGM). guess what i have been selected as one of the committee members (again?) for the financial year of 2009/10.

it seems as if this year is just zipping by and for many of you parents, i am sure it is time to form your nominating committee at your child's school as well. i hope that the respond won't be as bad as here. i have stressed out the same thing last year. most people don't bother about this important day at all. i do not know of why is it so hard for them to at least take 1/2 day leave just for this occasion. its actually for the benefits of our own child.

as each new school year begins, new goals are set by all. for school-age children, the goal is to work hard and become better students. for us parents, the goal is to love and support our children so they can become good students now and good citizens tomorrow. we accomplish our goals through daily actions and by being involved in our school. if a student is to get the most out of their school years and build a solid foundation for their life, the student's parent or parents must be involved in some manner. for this solutions PTA offers many ways in which parents can help the school and their student reach goals.

PTA is an organization made up of all parents and teachers of a school. by enrolling your children in school, parents automatically become members of the PTA.

the PTA’s main objective is to enhance the educational environment and learning experience for our children. the PTA supposed to supports the whole school community through the following: coordinating volunteers for activities that support school programmes, organising social activities, setting up support/communication networks, and raising funds to finance PTA activities that support school development. you can be involved in the PTA in many ways.

you may be asking, “why should i join the PTA?”

• you will be able to stay connected with your child’s school.
• the opportunities to meet new parents and share your ideas, concerns, and experiences.
• the opportunity to volunteer and/or joining a committee to help with school events.
• offering ideas on how to improve your child’s school.
• participation in fund raising events that will help purchase needed educational materials.
• be a role model for your child. you are showing your child the importance you place on education.
• the membership fee will be used to contribute to school funds.

remember, with your help via PTA the school can make a better learning environment for your children.

the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

of packing a healthy and cheap lunch

today is only 4th of february.
megat is only in year four this year.
upsr exam is only two years away from now.

no matter what the circumstances are, megat and his batch (year four) have already started to attend extra classes after school hours with effective today, organized by the school' PTA. take note that megat is schooling in a local chinese school. so as for now he will be going home only at 2.55pm from monday to wednesday, while on thursday and friday is at 2.25pm. parents are allowed to deliver their kids lunch during their second break i.e. when the normal school hours end (1.35pm for monday to wednesday and 1.05pm for thursday and friday).

so as for me it's not a problem at all to bring megat's packed lunch to him at those hours. normally it would be like that anyway, where i would fetch puteri right after megat anyway. so it's definitely fine for me. and the best thing is we do not have to be worried for food poisoning, as the food is home-made. home-made food are more healthy i tell you. if not why on earth we could see quite a number of chinese mothers do the same. in fact one of them who always chatted with me when we bumped in to each other in school, told me that even she do not trust canteen food. she prefer to cook her kids' packed meal herself. besides that, we can teach our kids to save their pocket money since they already bring packed meals/lunch from home.

so as you could see from the above pic, that is the school' side entrance gate. that is where i usually waited for megat. and the missing grill are meant for us parents to pass anything to our kids, vise versa. kewl huh?!!...

i tell you what... isn't it good for you people to adapt this packed lunch ideas for work., no matter whether you are single or married. lunch is the meal where most people end up scarfing down whatever fatty, greasy food they can find. but it only takes a little pre-planning to create a healthy, energy-boosting meal, at little cost to you or your long-term health.

step 1
create a healthy shopping list, with easy-to-pack, nutritious foods in mind. opt for low-fat granola, dried fruit, nuts, low-fat meat slices, whole wheat bread, fresh fruit and deli tray-sized bits of fresh carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and sweet baby carrots, eggs (you can hard boil or create egg salad sandwiches with vegan mayonnaise or olive oil mayonnaise), and peanut, soy, or sunflower butter.

step 2
strategize the night before. it's best to pack more than you think you'll eat. that way you won't run out of the food you need to keep your energy up throughout the afternoon. plus, you'll have a little extra for mid-morning and even a quick breakfast on the run or during the commute.

step 3
include three components to make a meal: a main, snack and side. a salad, sandwich or whole grain wrap is a good choice for a main. throw in homemade trail mix (see #4) or granola for your snack. add in a salad with your sandwich, a container full of bite-sized veggies, or cubes of various fruits and honey for your side.

step 4
make your own trail mix. homemade trail mix can be customized to suit your taste, and can be created as a low-fat alternative to the store brands. mix together some sesame sticks, soy nuts, sunflower seeds, a few dark chocolate chips, dried cranberries, cherries, blueberries and almonds. the result is a snack that's tasty, low-fat and packed with protein and antioxidants.

step 5
try new variations on old standbys. there are hundreds of variations just on a whole wheat wrap. try a garlic or basil flavored flatbread or tortilla. brush on vinaigrette dressing instead of plain old mustard. add almonds for a protein boost, or just switch up your standard wheat sandwich bread with a whole grain roll. that way you'll never get bored and be inclined to stray from your healthy DIY route.

step 6
pack your items in reusable containers. bags formerly containing your snack mixes, veggies and sandwiches have only one place to go after you use them: the landfill. do this for the environment, while you revamp your lunch routine for yourself.

step 7
eat with co-workers in moderation. don't completely cut off lunches with colleagues. these are good morale-boosting sessions (or venting sessions, whatever the case may be). be a team player. you may be overdoing it when your lunches out really start to show up on your account balance and your thighs.

on another note, kay came over to my place yesterday evening, for us to visit the late kak fairoz' mother. i think probably that time her (kak fairoz) brother was already on the way back to kuale from klia, to bring back her remains. read more about her in today's news here, here, here and here.

"may she rest in peace"... amin.

random thoughts

good day to all my friends, visitors and fellow bloggers. its tuesday and i need to attend the PTA meeting at puteri's school (also my former school), at 3 pm. so i will not have long time sit in front of my dell because i need to prepare for this meeting but of course i will be back later in the evening *winks*

anyway, i am done with my last few paid post in here... gosh!!! i have been getting quite a number of them lately. i am really happy with that. so what can i say? wanted opps for this blog hahahahaa...

she remembers it all...

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

its teacher's day!

may 16 is teacher's day (malay: hari guru) in malaysia.

this date was chosen because in the same month in 1956, the federal legislative council of the malay states had received several suggestions (documents) from the education committee regarding teachers' day as the base of education in malaysia. the document, known as the razak report, has become the foundation of education in malaysia ever since. although it is not an official school holiday, celebrations are usually held on this date, or earlier, if it falls on a saturday or sunday.

teacher's day around the world is not celebrated on the same day. in some countries, teacher's day is celebrated on working days. whereas, in other countries, it is celebrated on holidays. however, the day of celebration, itself, holds no significance. what matters, is the feeling behind the celebration of teacher's day.

so me being one of the PTA's committee member, was rather damn busy running around here and there to get things done with our activities. one of them is this high quality towel gift for all the teachers of puteri's school (pssttt... also mine). we just hope that the teachers like our gift, although we know that the gift can't be compared to what all of you teachers have done so far. really. we will present this to the teachers next week as the school will only celebrate their teacher's day then. take note that for this year we have decided to make this as a surprise for the teachers. so for the time being, they are all been kept at my house ;)

i would like to wish happy teacher's day , especially to cik hajjah nazipah, puan hajjah zawiyah, mrs silva, mrs wong, puan maimunah, my classmate fau whose now being called as puan fauziah ahmad and all teachers in malaysia. we've met many teachers in our life journey some just pass by but some leave a mark in our life.

i wish there is a way for me to ask for forgiveness from all my teachers for all the wrongdoing i've done to them. i, kuE, ex-student of SK Datin Khadijah (1979-1984) and SMK Raja Perempuan Kelsom (1985-1989); would like to ask for forgiveness from all my ex teachers-- "maafkan saya cikgu di atas semua kesalahan saya dan halalkan ilmu yang dicurahkan selama ini".

so what about you people, who do you remember right now?

i ain't a teacher

i was in red baju kurung this morning for a function in school, with pearl necklace, white handbag and matching white shoes. some of the school children (especially those in year one) who doesn't know me yet thought that i am a teacher!

"assalamualaikum cikgu. cikgu cantik...", greeted them, when i walked by ;)

oik... ada ka? lol... so do i look like one anyway people hehe...

well, luckily both puteri and megat backed early today. i had another shower after we reached home around 2pm. this time i wore pink baju kurung. i know its seldom teachers in school saw me in that type of attire. like this morning, when i salam with one of them, she told me, "you look so cute...". cute ke? hehe... i normally wear my jacket suit or something ;) i had all those during my office life in kl many years back. so rather than i keep them in my wardrobe, its better for me to wear them for any special and suitable occasions right.

alright. about the PTA AGM at puteri's school, all the members agreed to appoint me as one of the committee members. and now that i am holding two different positions in two different schools, i am sure that i am gonna be a bit busy for the financial year 2008/09.

basically, planning and promoting PTA programmes and events is one of the most important responsibilities in a PTA. the PTA works to support the school's educational goals, to provide a safe and healthy learning environment, to enrich the learning experience, and to enhance the mutual understanding among the parents, and teachers. for the past years, both of the school's PTA have been playing a very important role in supporting education, operation, and administration, as well as safeguarding students and organizing community events.

with that rather good explanation, i dunno of why there are still some parents who do not have the initiative to attend PTA AGM. its only done once a year! so what's up with that. that's a very good time for parents and teachers to discuss things together. some even pull out when their name been selected for one of the nominees for the committee member, yet not even voted that time. don't they realize that we are doing this for our generations. we want them to succeed. so what's with me whose still the PTA vice president of my former primary school right? puteri do not study there no more. i do not even have kids there also. one thing that's always wandering around my mind-- i studied there before, and that i love my school so much. i want to help the teachers to make our school proud and succeed in whatever we do. i had received feedbacks that those are not monetize job (?). excuse me... i have given my reasons above, and that's about it. i do not need money to help the community. i look for my side income elsewhere, i.e. ventured into paid post for this blog and my baking blog too ;)

so what say you people?

program nilam

i have just came back from my former primary school (also puteri's) *phew*

what did i do there, you asked? since i am the PTA's vice president, i have been invited to join them this morning during the school's weekly assembly, with the president; followed by this launching ceremony of "Program NILAM 2008" for the school. i am sure those you malaysian mothers with school-going kids know about this programme. if you dunno what is it all about, then i dunno what to say ;)

so basically its the country's level programme to encourage school children to read. just imagine people, according to the national library's survey, the ratio of locals who read books to-date are two (2) pieces only! thats certainly not something good to be heard :(

the programme at the school has been launched by en mohd suhaimi b. hj. zahir, ppt, pegawai teknologi pendidikan, pkg talang. read more about this programme here.

about my position as the PTA's vice president, i have been selected for the same position again for the second time (on last friday, for the financial year 2008/09). for those who dunno, previously it was for the year 2007--09.

o yes... some of you may wonder, since my former primary school sk datin khadijah is an all-girls school, why on earth there are some boys there in the pic right. well they are some students from the special kids classes. i was so glad to know that the school has about more than 10 classes now compared to two only (sometimes 1.5) during my time ;) they are so special, yet that i cried every time i saw them. in fact i think the teachers who teach them are indeed truly amazing too.

where else i will be at my former secondary school this afternoon for their PTA AGM :)

wash & blow in kuale

i have just came back from puteri's school. her school finished at 12 noon on friday. while megat at 1.05pm, but he will only go back at 1.35pm, for extra class. thats how chinese school here i.e. year three kids already have to attend extra classes in school. well its not a problem for me at all, as its for their own good also ;)

i dropped by the saloon earlier to get them to 'wash & blow' my hair. believe it or not people... its been almost a week since the last time i did it cuz i was so damn busy ler... *glurp* :~) luckily i have to attend my former primary school's (also puteri's) PTA AGM at 2pm, if not... hmm i dunno ler... hehe... one of the sisters at the saloon asked of the place i am going after that. hah! can you see that people? she's very much aware of my style already-- always wanna do my hair nicely whenever i am heading for any special functions or sort.

so can you people guess of the cost i have paid for the 'wash & blow' session only? RM9.00!!! yea... u heard me... i paid them RM9.00 only ;) i asked one of the three sisters of the damage that i should pay. first she told me that it was RM10.00; but then she quickly reconfirm it with her elder sister. after that she turned back to me and said, "RM9.00 saje lah". i was like, "owh ok... tq!".

look at that people-- how on earth you could get that price for a 'wash & blow' session in kl huh?!! tell me. well maybe that price is for a regular customer like me. but anyhow RM10.00 still cheap right. correct me if i am wrong 8)

i used to be very regular at thomas & guys when i was staying in subang before, so i know. beside, prices in klang valley are well known to be a boom! whatever it is, i dun care lar... as long as the local' are good too! take a look at my today's hair people, not bad right? so how much do you pay for yours?

the time is gold

do i look mad in the pic people? ya sure... tell me people... who wouldn't get mad right, when someone whose being a guest of honour at a formal function, turned up late grr... tell you what people -- i feel so excited to attend a christmas cupcakes class at ICCA in section 14, pj, tomorrow morning, but i am still here! fyi i have registered for the course way months ago. thus i thought maybe i could come earlier, as i am quite free also now. too bad i only knew about this school function last week, during our PTA committee meeting. then i went arrgghhhhh..... anyhow since our president cannot be there (he's having a course in kl), i told myself, as a vice president of the school's PTA that i have to attend it no matter what. on the other hand, the HM told me that i have to deliver the opening speech instead... blek! :P

so i make the point to be at the school as early as possible. i even asked my dad to help me to fetch puteri for me. we were waiting for the guest of honour at the entrance when suddenly a teacher came to tell us that our guest of honour called that he was still in ipoh and asked us to carry on with the function first. i was like whispered to myself, "WTF!!! you knew that you were supposed to be the guest of honour, but you treat this like sh*t. my... you think you are meeting your friends?". i just smiled, but in my heart hmm... only He knows hehe...

the function started at 2.35 pm without the guest of honour. he only came about an hour later. i was more hangin when he came in an in proper dress code :P this makes me lazy to talk more about this guy. to add up to it, he greeted our PTA's president in his speech! wa lau ley... in the programme book already clearly stated there that i was the one whose gonna deliver the opening speech. thus its understood ler kan... or else ask ler if u dunno grr... that guy really didnt prepare anything before his appearance. i just don't think he has a good etiquette. why ler we have this kind of people in the world.

alright... what ever it is, i am glad that my opening speech (in malay) were delivered fine and okay ;) i was kinda nervous actually in the first place but alhamdulillah... everything turned out to be okay. i myself was surprised that i could do it. you know what people. i seldom do such thing i.e. standing at the rostrum (as per the above pic), deliver a speech in public. i have only became mc for some company's function. as you could see, for me, being an mc and delivering a speech in the public are two different important jobs. i think i love to be an mc more. besides that, i am more to behind the scene job. its okay ler... as long as things all under control hehe... amin.

owh... can't wait to be in kl tomorrow, to meet someone special in my life ;)

meeting very special kids

some of you may not know yet, that i am holding the position of vice president of pta of my former primary school. thus other than work commitment, i am also busy helping teachers to provide whatever the best for the school—i love my school so much. i do not like it to be left behind. so i was there this morning with the president, to give some support for standard six pupils. the school's pta organized a motivational programme for them.

i was walking at the corridor, to my 4wd. then i had been stopped by an indian girl. she called me cikgu (that's teacher in malay). from the way she talked and act, i understood that she is one of the special kids that is studying there. we continued chatting while walking. when we were about to reach the car-porch, another girl joined us. that malay girl is a special kids too. she looked at me and saw my blue butterfly ear-rings. "ehh... cantiknya (beautiful)", she said while touched it slowly. i dunno why, i felt so touched that i almost cry, but i tried to control myself. now both of the girls wanted to play with my fon. i told them nicely that its not something to be played. i asked them to stand together for me to take a pic of them instead. the malay girl asked me to give a copy of the pic to her (alright girl, insya allah i will give it to your teacher when i come back in about another two weeks or so). i kissed both of their cheeks before i go. i felt more touched when they smiled back at me.

aren't they adorable?

fyi, my former primary school now has about four or five co-add classes specially for special kids. during my time, it has only one class. they deserved to go to school to have good educations too.

more responsibilities

*burp* (sorry people)

hi there,

i have just came back from my lunch. my grandma cooked masak lemak siput sedut (snails in a spicy coconut gravy) for lunch today. oh its awesome auww...

i was not in yesterday- n5 task force general meeting for the financial year of 2006/07 at the ISO. the last part of the meeting was none other than selecting our new committee member. our good friend shaidi has been voted as our new president, while our new vice president is abang lan. guess whose the new secretary? hehe... its ME lor!!! looks like i have another responsibility to handle apart from my work and life. last march, i have been voted without competing, as a vice president of the pta of puteri's school. well, whatever it is i will try my very best to complete all the task given to me. wish me luck people ;)

actually i was a bit late during the meeting yesterday as i got some errants to be settled back in the office. anyhow i did inform the former vice president, shaidi anyway. as soon as i stepped into the meeting room, i said sorry to our area manager (AM) for being late.

"its alright", he said.

i saw that they have arranged the meeting room in a different setting this time- meeting chairs scattered here and there.

"help yourself", continued AM. "o yea... before that ladies and gentleman, let's give a big round of applause to our heroin *tut*. congratulations, you were absolutely wonderful that night", said AM, while showed his hand, wanted to have a hand-shake with me. *phew* i thought what ler lol... so we did.

he was talking about the staff award night 2005/06 that has been held in penang on 3 may 2006. i did a bollywood dance with a group of colleagues remember? but i still owe you all the pics. nana still hasn't email me. i have seen pics ready from my staff camera but the quality was not that good. i'll try and do something about it har. you all just need to be patience. well as what our AM said, our dance might gonna be the most talk event of the year! hahahaaa... in fact i was about to go off yesterday when a colleague kak ina stopped me. she told me that i dance very well that night (o yea?) and it seems that i look very beautiful and 'sebijik' (exactly) like one of those bollywood artist. i was laughing like hell when kak ina compliment me that way. she said that she was telling me the truth, right from the bottom of her heart auwww... btw we'll see ya...

kuE = 1!!!

arghhh... i am so exhausted- running up and down, here and there. its all because of the police' usual attitude. they like to call people for a last minute thingy. i really hate that. why they think i'm so free meh? grr...

earlier in the morning nizam called for a short discussion at shaidi's place at 11am. alright, fine. i told myself that i could go for a while but then i have to come back as early as possible as i need to attend 2006-2008' first pta committee meeting at puteri's school at 3pm.

the thing that makes me very 'bengang' today because sargeant tajuddin called me at 10.30am (i was already on the way to ipoh), asking me to be at the police station for a 'kawad cam' session at 3pm(?!!). asp nazri did the same kind of attitude before. he (asp nazri) came about a week earlier before the date of the proceedings but only called me in the morning itself (?) to reconfirm. anyhow i told sargeant tajuddin about my appointment that was at 3pm also. some more he could ask me whether it was important for me to be at the school. wa lau ley... do you want me to speak in tamil (sargeant can speak mandarin lol) or what?!! lol.

when i was about to leave ipoh, i sms some of my friends asking for their opinions. as usual, some of my victims were included V, leilanie, rose, abg ashraf etc- most of the feedback were same. i know for me, the school is more important than any other. but then the follow-up of the case is important too. its true of what rose said, i am just one, can't be in two places at one time ;)

i was still thinking about the best decision to make, during lunch. omg!!! please help me. at last i decided to go to the school. i went upstairs, switch-on my room air-cond, dragged my towel and off i went for a nice and cool shower. i reached the school about a few minutes before 3. we started the meeting as scheduled. i changed my fon to a silent mode. about 3.45pm, a policeman interrupted us at the meeting room, asking me to be at the police station. i was so damn mad. i told him that i could co-operate with them but i need to come back to the school asap.

so i drove as fast as i could to the police station. sargeant tajuddin introduced me to a police woman. she ushered me to a special room (hmm... don't even bothered to know what's the labelled on the room door). to tell you the truth, i was so damn gabra as soon as i stepped in the police station' compound. more panic when i went into the room. there were about 11 guys which one of them was the culprit already standing in a straight line, all facing infront. there were also about six or seven police' in the room too. i was asked to walk few times from one end to another. i was shocked when i reached at one of the guys. "oikk... he's here too?", i was asking myself upon looking at the proton edar's salesman. he smiled at me. "oii!!! mana boleh bercakap, pandang depan!", shouted a voice. i guess that must be from one of the policeman. i was more scared. it took me about 10-15 minutes or so. i was supposed to place my hand on the culprit's shoulder but i was really scared i tell you. one of the policeman told me that i could point to the guy if i want. i did by pointing my right thumb to the last guy on my left. the guy was big size, like a commando with moustache. but then i heard another policeman said i still have to place my hand on the shoulder because the camera man need to take some pictures grr... i faced infront (i was still scared of course). as soon as he finished, i walked off from there and told the police woman that i have to go. sargeant tajuddin reminded me to come back after my meeting :(

i went back to the police station after 6pm. i saw sargeant tajuddin as promised. he took my statement by asking a few questions, printed it out and asked me to sign it. luckily his office is with air-condition. we finished before maghrib.

no honk please...

i was a bit mad at an indian guy this morning in puteri's school. i was just mentioning about this last week during the school's anuual pta meeting. i highly stressed to everyone no matter parents or teachers about local people's driving etiquette. this is because i could see people were driving their vehicles in school area/compound like no one business, didn't even care about those kids who walk or cycle to school. alright, i admit that i drive damn fast BUT only on highways! when it comes to school matters, i could automatically change my driving style.

i was still at this usual corner this morning although puteri already walked-in the school. the reason that i was still there because i was giving ways for the school kids who walk. suddenly this indian guy from my left side honked me loudly. so i showed him the situation infront of me. he doesn't understand. then i wind-down my left side 4wd' window and told him, "aloo... boleh sabar tak? kita kena lar bagi budak-budak sekolah jalan dulu. you ada paham tak?". wow... kuE so brave meh? he kept quiet. a lady saw me with surprised lol. that incident also reminds me of zuhri's post- 'start with the pebble under my feet'. hmm... a good one indeed. but for me, i do not think that indian guy knows about all this manners or moral values thingy ;)

omg!!! who? me? :D

i have just came back from the annual general meeting 2006-2008 of the pta of puteri's school about an hour ago. i am a mother that would be so kay-poh if anything turned wrong or not. most of the teachers and students of the school know me already. i just sat quietly through out the function blah blah blah... when suddenly i heard a familiar voice from the back called for my name. that was one of the puteri's female teacher'. i did not turn around AT ALL.

"oh my god, why me?!!", i told my self.

"cadangan lain (anymore names) ?", asked the chairman.

"saya mencadangkan supaya cadangan ditutup (i suggest that we closed the proposal) ", replied another teacher.

i was puzzled, "WHAT?!!!". everyone agreed.

so then the chairman said, "baiklah. *tut* (my full name with the correct salutation) telah dilantik sebagai naib yang dipertua pibg bagi sessi 2006-2008. tahniah *tut* (... has been selected as the vice president of the pta for 2006-2008 session. congratulations.) ". i just smiled. that means i still have jobs here in the school until 2008 where puteri will be in form two (14 years old).

then the chairman called for all the new committee members to sit infront at the long table provided. starting from there, i was talking here and there non-stop :)
