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?


topic of the week #1:

Lela juz finished marguerita dance...feeling hungry yg terlampau and now at benjiana steakhouse having teh tarik and steak...kakakaka!

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...


YOUR TURN! leave a comment!

haloscan to echo~

if you bloggers using other comment box provider in your blog like me, there would be a certain time where it seems that their software and hardware beginning to fail. and that it cannot properly accommodate no more bla³.

i had the choice whether to upgrade or to export the existed haloscan comments. so to make things easy, i upgraded mine to echo live at USD9.95 per year (np: USD12) w.e.f. today. i just followed thru their simple and quick instructions, paid the amount via paypal... voila! i did that before i slept last night, and when i checked back earlier this morning, its done~ with nothing involved html code and what's not. its all done automatically by them. if you do not choose to do any of the above, of course your haloscan widget will stop running and you will lose all your existing haloscan comments.

the first!

as you all know, today is the first for everything:

the first monday of the year ~ of course!

the first day of schools for many malaysian school-going kids ~ its not that bad for both my kids puteri and megat though; as this is already the 11th and 8th year of schools for puteri and megat respectively. they managed everything themselves, except for megat was a bit slow because of this *glurp* hah! i just have to ensure that they woke up on time, and also to make sure that they had a proper breakfast before i send them to school.

the first working day for those people who work with mat salleh (caucasian) ~ this applied no matter you are malaysians are not. you were entitled for 3-weeks holidays, from christmas right up to the new year! *phew*

the first week of my new 'project 365'! yes this gonna be a new version that i am gonna called it "project 365-10". i left the previous one at week #9. but then i remember that i thought even though i do not have the time to update it via my flickr album or this blog, i still have the materials as i tried my very best to snap at least a pic a day. so along the way probably i will do it no matter what. too bad i didn't manage to do it. in some days, either i forgot to take pic in a day or maybe nothing at all in that week *blerk* then i decided to just quit at where ever i stop updating, and start a fresh new one for this new year... ngeh³ :))

so what about you people. is there any first for you today?

bid and win!

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Bidazzled. All opinions are 100% mine.

Just like every one else, I came to love doing some online shopping— it's convenient, fast and easy way to get some things that we want and need. Apart from that, there are so many great choices and amazing deals we can find online these days that online shopping became better than on-site/in-store shopping.

And when it comes to the bidding and auctioning part, it's always very exciting and challenging for me. It's a great way to compete a little for what we want to get. The good thing about this auction/bid thingy is that you name your price and when you win, that's the best part because you get what you want for the price you want and willing to pay.

And now, let me introduce you to Bidazzled, a new online auction site that was launched recently in early November. They are redefining the online auction market by offering savings of up to 90% on name brand merchandise all while funding a charity. We all love to pay back to the community and this is why we like Bidazzled. It was designed and created to fund a lung cancer charity, which is the Ruch Foundation.

I believe we all have brief ideas how Penny Auctions or Pay-Per-Bid auction sites work. Commonly bids are purchased in advance and then used to bid on the merchandises. The price increases a few cents with each bid placed and a few seconds are added to the countdown clock to give others a chance to bid. The auction ends when no other bids are placed. So if a new laptop ends at just a dollar, then you win the laptop for a dollar!

Now, you could get yourself 15 additional bids when you use these codes until January 15th. :-

• BBP1202A for Blog; and


• BTP1202A for Twitter

*All you need to do is to enter the codes on the registration page. There is no obligation or cost of any kind. You can tell everyone about this great news.

Auction winners in Bidazzled usually save over 80% off the retail price. Even if you don't win, you could receive up to 50 Bonus Bids as a thank you for participating. In the first month, there were 2 winners of Nintendo Wii's who have won with just their 5 free bids! Unbelievable but it is real!

Bidazzled also has a lucrative Viral Referral program. Do check it out if you would like to know more about it!

eventually they never say NO to any 'makan-makan' invites...

this is a story about the difference between the current and past students of the koleq (mckk) boys. yes i know they loveeeeeeeeee food, and who doesn't right; but here's a something~

remembers peeps, the recent eid adha was during the spm exams. the school didn't allow any of the form 5 students to go back for the holidays. so puteri invited them to come to our house after the raya prayers. none of them came. it seems that they were... s-h-y(?!!!) *glurp*

when mama told this to my lil bro (batch '93, who is well known as boon since his koleq days) recently, he said: "EEEEE... malu². budak koleq never deny to any makan² invites!" hiks!

yes true. we have experienced them all, especially at my grandma's place here. from papa's younger years in koleq until my lil' bro, they always brought their koleq friends home. even when they wanted to take their spm results (my lil' bro time), they were quite a number of them overnight here. they slept everywhere i tell you! yes everywhere. no need ler for me to tell about this in details, just go and figure ler... and from what i know, when they were here... its always like home sweet home :)

christmas is just around the corner...

believe it or not people i have never attended any christmas party when i moved back here. so the 'christmas line dance party' in ipoh that i went with intan and mrs teh on last friday night, was kind of the first one for me since then. it was truly great and enjoyable. we really enjoyed ourselves sooooo much!

you know people when i first started line dancing earlier this year, i didn't expect to have this kind of fun time at all. so as you could see now people its not that bad staying in this part of the globe. i have even been to line dance carnival in penang few weeks ago. i know i know i still owe the blog post that's in my draft folder mind you! so no sweat i will post about it no matter what~ better late than never huh?!! anyway i have made up my mind to try my very best to release all the blog post in the draft folder asap at least before the year ends... looks like i have to find some time for a self blogging marathon *phew*

alright, one thing's best about attending a costume or theme party is that i could dress-up as much as i could. and as the result, i brought home a hamper sponsored by yee hup for the best dressed title... woot! you could view me with the hamper pictured as the thumbnail of the party vid (later part of this blog post). on the other hand, if you have been a follower of my twitter, i am very sure that you have already known by now about this than anyone else from this tweet.

although some people may find that my costume was very simple— i just went for a bling bling red top with white skirt, and a pair of black boots, and not forgetting a small bling bling christmas hat! but i trust that if you follow the theme correctly, and with at least a bit of effort (take note that i did my hair myself!)... i am sure that you will get a big chance there. oh btw i have been dubbed as one of the santa's elves by an online american friend :))

and another thing that i would like to point out~ this kind of party is a bit different than any other christmas party, as we got to meet some other line dancers and line danced together with them along all kind of musics like country, waltz, rock and roll, and what ever you name it... even hip hop! so don't get the interpretation wrong that line dance is for old people only. you are definitely wrong! make sure you watch our new found line dancing friend shan in the following video. he danced to fuego perfectly i tell you!

and of course there's more of me in the video too thanks to more of our new found line dancing friends hamidah and her gang~

i could obviously say that the party would not be successful with the great organization by the organizer chris ng, who is also a line dance instructor in ipoh. thank you so much chris for the great party! we will surely come back next time...

holiday buying guide~

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Dirt Devil. All opinions are 100% mine.

Here in Malaysia, we are already entering the third week of year end school holidays. The time is radically moving fast. Megat's extra classes started even on the Saturday (first day) itself. The schedule has been arranged as such because Hari Raya Haji (Eid Adha) fell on the following Friday. Take note that Megat is schooling in a local Chinese primary school. He totally skipped the second week's classes, as he already followed his Wan Chik (auntie) back to KL on last Sunday. While as for me here, of course there's more stories to come soon.

I bet some of you are already shopping for gifts to give to your closed family, relatives and friends on this coming holiday. You might be looking for shopping outlets online and trying to see if you could extend your budget for gifts. In fact, you could. If you're only patient and diligent enough in finding the best deals online, you'll definitely find one. I can recommend one as I blog about it— Dirt Devil Holiday Buying Guide.

They have an amazing downloadable holiday buying guide filled with 100’s of tips and tricks to get more bang for your buck when shopping online. The guide includes over 300 websites, tricks and clever ways to shop online.

The site not only let you save for your grocery budget, it also helps you protect the environment because shopping online lets you save on gas. This one is one of the most important reasons why most people prefer online shopping over traditional in-store buying. Normally, all items for delivery have corresponding shipping fees. With Dirt Devil, you may take advantage of the Free Shipping Shortcuts *drooling*

"paragon of fashion"

i have been called as "paragon of fashion" by harjinder, a junior of my school. it started when i saw this on a canadian fb friend's status:

WANNA SEE WHO DOES THIS... Let's see how honest FB friends are. Leave a 1 word comment that you think best describes her. It can only be 1 word. No more than 1 word. Then copy & paste this post on your wall so she can leave a word about you. This should be interesting... Wonder if she has 20 brave friends who will do this~

so after i typed a word about heather, i copy and paste the above on my fb status. i was kinda eager too to see of what people would say about me. it was an honour for me though to find out that there are some people who secretly adore me for my fashion. i just dunno what to say but that's me! i guess harjinder could see it from our school days till now. basically i lurve to dress up according to the occasions, functions or events i am attending. i dunno about you, but for me i would definitely feel odd if i don't wear according to the theme...

like recently when i attended a chinese wedding, i wore cheongsam (i know i know i didn't blog about this YET)! guest were kinda impressed seeing me. even most of the chinese people themselves don't wear their traditional clothes during functions like that :(

and i wonder if you could still remember about an indian wedding that i posted some time early this year. i chose to wear lehnga. ayuuuuu... you could read it here, plus more close-up pics of their wedding traditions.

i also owned áo dài, a vietnam traditonal clothes that my dad bought it tailor-made for me during his vietnam trip many years ago.

besides lehnga, i have wore saree too at a company dinner some time ago. it was a bollywood theme. i chose to wear saree to create something different from other people. i wanted to show them that malay girls can wear saree too... then voila!

well, all the above pics were part of the other clothes that i wore apart from the normal baju kurung or kebaya. and now, i am in the mid of thinking of what to wear for a christmas line dance party that i am going to attend next week. any idea people? ;P

quickie!!!

yes!!!... this is a very quick one~

i went to penang the whole day yesterday for 2009 penang international line dance carnival people! it was no doubt a very great one, truly organized well enough for an international event. but only one thing that i would like to complaint about it. well i guess i will wait for an another blog post before i tell you, that i will type specially for the event.

i started my sunday early because i am going to ipoh in a few hours with some line dancing friends to learn 1malaysia line dance fuhhh... what a sunday to start it early huh?!! anyhow if you follow me on twitter here, i am sure that you already knew by now that i have been active with line dancing events here and there. yes... i guess i mentioned this before— although i seldom blog nowadays, twitter (which is also known as mini-blog) helps a lot. in fact i have so many thingy to blog actually, yet i had so lil' time to do it huhuu...

so at the meantime, i will leave you people with some beautiful *glurp* pics of my trip to penang by ferry. i think the last time i took the ferry was during my school days hehee... that's why i decided to take the ferry instead. ok okie... more story-mory later...

penang bridge of course!

camwhore is a must for a blogger like me!

and at this point, the ferry staff already asked me to get back to the car for us to unboard(?) the ferry.

talking about health...

i had to ask puteri to record this video late last night as per my lil' sis request. its for some work-related surveys that she has to do~

btw please take note that milk contains calcium and not protein as i mentioned walaweiii... i was kinda nervous i guess. also maybe cuz i knew that its for my sis' work related stuff :))

if you would like to help to answer the above questionnaires too, kindly leave your answers in the comment box. thank you so much in advance for your great help *peace*

cafè world

my oh my... i should have posted this last friday as mentioned in the earlier blog post; but never mind lor as long as i still remember lol...

so as you could see cafè world is one of zynga's most played online games nowadays. i wanted to share a couple tips in cafè world that i read about and trying that will work well for you and get you advanced thru the levels faster. instead of using a cheat that can make you banned, you should play with these simple cafè world tips and tricks to gain xp points and earn money fast:

first thing is, i would make sure that i have as simple cafè as ever but its still looks nice and neat. i don't like fancy stuff much in my real life anyway. you could see in my two examples above and below of 6 november and tonight respectively.

see... i do not have much things in the cafè. i only go for simple items like ming chair to match my ciao table and ming timbers flooring. even my stoves are those of simple one too. these things don't cost much. and if you realized it my doors were actually free. the orange roses were gifts from 'neighbours'. like i said earlier, the most important thing is of how to reach the levels faster.

1. setup your counters so your waiters will be blocked in (look at mine as an example), but make sure the cook can still reach them to place food on them from the stoves. what this does is save time for the food to be served. instead of waiting for waiters to walk around serving food and clearing dishes. they can magically do it all behind the counters if they can't get to the tables. and serving is so much faster, so customers won't walk out because they waited too long.



2. don't let food get spoiled. i had to look this up and found out that food from your stoves will spoil after the same period of time it takes to cook them. plan what you want to cook and when you can be back to check on it and place them on the counters. for example, cooking cheeseburgers takes 5 minutes. if you let it set after its done, they will spoil 5 minutes after they finish cooking. the same goes for every dish.



3. add more doors to get more costumers get in.



4. how to close the cafè, so you can cook up lots of food to fill up your counters~ i love this one because i get annoyed trying to keep up getting food on the counters. and if customers don't get food, they walk out and you lose on your buzz rating. if i run out or get low, the trick is to click on the cogs and go into customize mode and move a chair in front of the door, or put the door back in inventory. in other words, don’t leave your cafè open with no dishes to serve. put the doors back when the dishes are ready. in this way, you will keep your buzz rating up.



5. time pot roasts, chicken and other dishes that take a day or two to all finish at about the same approximate time that you know you can be around. that way you have 100's, if not thousands of servings ready to go.



6. tables and chairs: try and keep up with as many available chairs and tables as you can fit for more customers. they need a place to sit and eat so you can make money. if they can't, they leave and your buzz rating goes down. i maybe bought a few too many, but at least i'm not running out of tables and having customers walk out.



7. send gifts to your friends so you can get some back. visit your friends daily and leave tips for them so they would be glad to tip you too. besides that invite more people to be your neighbours on cafè world. the more neighbours you have, the more money you would get from the daily bonus.

i'll find more tips and share them. hope this helps.

knows our way online...

warning: this blog post is certainly not to bring down anyone or anything. but it is thoroughly meant to remind everyone of the consequences in their action online. so do think wisely before you do any sort of things~

i was reading my twitter live feed earlier, when i clicked a link that was referring to local celebrities gossips by @amir_izwan just for the fun of it. and to my surprised, the website's favicon image is owned by SocialSpark!

blogging & law conference have said it all. although not everyone had the chance to attend it, but to steal other people's stuff are certainly not kewl...

so to whoever the site owner, its good that you replace it with other of your own asap. or worst come to worst don't use any for the time being until you create one of yours! where it will indicate your true identity... jmtc.

*more to come: my line dancing activities...

kuE' note:
group pic above has been taken at a line dance party in ipoh last night, courtesy of a new line dancing friend kenny :))

he won!...

i was busy with kiddos this morning, getting ready for school; when i heard the MHI (a local morning show) host read the headlines~ he won! yahoo!!!... so i quickly tweet about it. i was very sure that malaysians would be damn happy as well—
