oh... beijing!

i came back last saturday night. like what i suspected, there were piles of workload on my desk ahaks... luckily i asked one of my staff to arrange them in a box while i was on my holiday. so its not too bad tho'. i really dun have the time to tell you about my trip yet but maybe i post some of my fav pics here ;)

summer palace

the sunset gives the Long Gallery a touch of desolation despite the exquisite paintings

this was the best part after a long walk at the summer palace

a view from the 4th of 6 stations at the great wall. believe it or not i was one of the four of us in the group who managed to climb-up till the top! ;)

a view from my hotel room at +/- 0545

the big red door at the forbidden city where "the last emperor" was filmed here

one of the mosque in china

bicycles are allowed here in beijing city but NOT motorcyles!

what i did on 08.08.08

the number 8 is most auspicious for success whether it is in relationships, family, health or in business. therefore this ‘triple 8 for prosperity’ day which comes only once in a hundred years is very special indeed. so unique in fact that celebrated and highly respected positive energy specialist Dr Silvia Hartmann, PhD has named the day The World SUCCESS Day, the first day for the whole world to celebrate success and prosperity.

for further information on The World SUCCESS Day visit www.starfields.org/080808 .

as for myself, its just a normal friday for me-- school days you know? what we do expect right. its just that the date 08.08.08 has "special" significance. so say the chinese and polybore. the chinese have 5000 years of experience of getting this sort of stuff right, almost as long as polybore. you have been warned *glurp*

so basically our night was different than any other night. everyone were all ready stand-by in front of the damn tv by 7.45pm! the official opening of 2008 olympic games in beijing was tremendously awesome!!! words really can't describe it all. i bet everyone have witnessed it right.

and today...
the kids go to school as usual to replace their raya holidays. puteri has one more saturday to go. surprisingly megat also goes to school today ya... looks like chinese school people also wanna enjoy the raya holidays this time around too! well we most probably going to ipoh later today after they finished school. i'll update this InsyaAllah.

as for now, may good luck be your friend in whatever you do and may trouble be always a stranger to you. have an awesome weekend people!!!

can't wait for tonight!

hello Olympics, bye bye kittens!

obviously, when you're hosting a party you want your place to be relatively clean. dishes washed, dirty clothes in the hamper, pizza boxes in the trash, etc. and when you're hosting a party the size of the olympics you have even more to worry about. like dangerous cats.

though, the solution is easy. just cage them up and transport them to death camps on the outskirts of the city.

Thousands of pet cats in Beijing are being abandoned by their owners and sent to die in secretive government pounds as China mounts an aggressive drive to clean up the capital in preparation for the Olympic Games.

Hundreds of cats a day are being rounded and crammed into cages so small they cannot even turn around.

Then they are trucked to what animal welfare groups describe as death camps on the edges of the city.

The cull comes in the wake of a government campaign warning of the diseases cats carry and ordering residents to help clear the streets of them.

kuE's note:
read more here. take note that i dun dare to copy and paste their "disgustingly cruel" pics here in my blog--thats just not me :( but if you want to, just go to the link. some of you people may know that i am truly into saving the environment right, so obviously i hate those people who have done such thingy to animals. shame on you chinese!

yeah. that's not good.

i'm willing to bet that not every cat killed is disease ridden. though, the government seems to have done a good job at scaring the citizens into believing that all cats must die. even their pets that spend their days indoors, and are perfectly healthy. hopefully, the rest of the cats don't band together and overrun the olympic village.

since i have known about this terrible news, i would always think that our cat pussy is so lucky, whenever i look at him. you could see the difference of him from the last video i loaded about six months back. pussy now has grown to a very healthy male kampung (village) cat. fyi he (pussy) never eat any other food, as he only goes for cat food ;) puteri did try to place a fish in front of him. but he just sniffed it out, then walked away lol...

can't wait for tonight!

olympics... finally 08.08.08.

yes people tell me who in the world can't wait for 8pm tonight right, about 11+ hours to go... for those who dunno, the time of beijing and here are the same. check out your timing at the world clock time zones here.

puteri gunung ledang -- the musical

i know that i supposed to post about the 4-taggy-thingy yesterday, but i didn't have the time for that. kids followed parents to kl for one nite as both mom and dad got something on there. while i went off to pamper myself :)

actually i was so damn eager to post about puteri gunung ledang-the musical. what when after i read suhaimi sulaiman's and afdlin shauki's review about the so-called "Yes... MUST SEE for everyone" and "OUTSTANDING MALAYSIAN ACHIEVEMENT!" respectively. that makes me telling myself- i wanna go!!! but who should i go with? ahh... better start asking around if not i'll go myself alone :)

the first time i went to istana budaya with puteri for wild zebra, last year. the show was tremendously fantastic especially the props, costume and of course the ballet dancers were very good indeed. puteri is into ballet so much. so it was like a mother-daughter outing. we came all the way to kl from here just to watch it. it was on saturday, just before i went for my beijing trip if i'm not mistaken.

back to pgl-the musical. fyi my lil' bro was one of the crew for pgl-the movie. an auntie dropped-by on her way back to kl this afternoon. we talked about this. according to her, our relative ayah... *tut* is involved. he is in charge of the props and such. fuhh... that makes me more excited. proud u...

so who wanna go with me, please let me know via email asap. the show will be held from 7 to 26 february 2006. i understand that there are 3pm and 8.30pm shows, depending on the dates.

what's in the bag

yippeee...!!! i'm a bit better now, compared to what i posted few days ago. i felt like a walking zombies you know. i managed to drive my 4wd alone to sunway hotel, seberang jaya yesterday for a company seminar there. dad was so worried asking whether i was going with anyone. i just 'geleng-geleng'. huh... he knew that i lurve to drive, some more wanna ask.

anyhow back to my main purpose of being here at this time- what's in the bag. i was so damn eager to post about this from yesterday morning after read leilanie's. but that moment i was preparing to go for my seminar grr... i also keep a side of my intention to up-date about my weekend happenings just because of this. so i immediately took the pic as soon as i reached home, and here it is, let's chek-out what's in my bag-

clock wise from top (that's of course my guess jeans denim bag) -
1. yu yee oil (has been using this since i was 1 day old)
2. a packet tissue paper
3. estee lauder pleasures exotic (yes the new one. i love the smell. i've just added this after i got it free from buying a bottle for my sister's birthday last week)
4. laurier sanitary pad and carefree pantiliner

6. revlon colorstay lipcolor - #20 plum

wanna know what's in YOUR bag too? go on, don't be shy... also dun forget to let me know when you are done occay :)

a sunday outing with my HERO...!!!

just got home from seeing the new harry potter and the goblet of fire flick, 10.45 showing.

i'd have to say that i very much damn enjoyed the movie, the best one yet. however, i must also say that there was much left out to fit the story into a lean two hours and roughly thirty minutes.

there is absolutely no dobby or winky (both of whom were crucial to the plot, but the work arounds were decent).

no S.P.E.W.

the movie starts out at the weasly house instead of the dursley's.

they don't show any of the actual quidditch world cup, and instead of sitting with the minister of magic harry and co. sit on the very top of the insanely large arena.

only one classroom scene, which couldn't be cut for obvious reasons.
only one scene with sirius.

BUT...

THEY KEPT THE FERRET SCENE.

the dragon scene was so damn fantastic. megat even hugged and closed his eyes to me when it comes to the scary scene at the grave :)

i highly recommend this terrific fourth harry potter movie to both fans of the books/movies and those who have never seen or read any of it. well worth the tgv ticket prices (RM6.00 and RM5.00 for adult and child respectively).

okay, okay... enough about the harry potter movie. at least i got to watch it on a sunday, at last!

i already told megat about my plan yesterday but didn't tell him of what movie that we gonna watch. forget about the chicken little, cuz he already watched it with his cik wah, wan chik, chor (puteri), wanna and pah nabilah during the third day of hari raya. in the first place i tried to call the tgv kinta city to make a phone booking before hand. this is a box office movie man!!! but unfortunately the girl said that for the time being they accept phone booking for all movies except harry potter. wa lau ley... even my complimentary tgv tickets that my sister gave me are not acceptable for this movie. thats not a problem anyway. so i have told myself that i need to get there as early as possible.

i woke-up after 7 but only started to get megat ready after 8. at the same time david called all the way from vancouver! i was so damn happy although we managed to talk for a short while. we missed each other so much. i need to be in ipoh asap anyway. so we only left for ipoh around 9.10. reached there less than 25mins as usual. told megat that we need to buy the tickets first. huhu... so we straight away rushed up there and *phew* lucky me! then only we went for breakfast at mcD (megat's choice, of course).

as soon as we came out from the movie, megat begging me to go to the mph bookstore. he has been collecting this jackie chan magazines. so i bought for him that and a chicken little activity book. i didn't buy any books as i still have piles of them not finish reading them all yet at home. i just flipped through some quilting magazines. huh... maybe just reminding myself of the good old days that i concentrate on my quilting hobby. i always hope that i would get back into this someday... yea... someday... but at the end i bought something for myself. guess what?!! its the simply pilates mat kit box including a cd! hehe... have been longing to start this months ago. i will try to squeeze it in somewhere in my daily schedule anyway :)

fyi i never do any exercises at all. but it was truly amazing when i managed to climb the great wall of china in beijing with my auntie right to the top, last august. my auntie is 53, went for jogging every morning. she also keeps fit by going to aerobic class maybe once or twice a week. so it was definitely a very simple thing for her. me? well, my average weight is normally around 41 to 43 kilos. i don't have any tips, basically i eat whatever i wanna.

here's what my 9 important points that i practise anyway.

1. never skip breakfast, its the most important meal of the day. the best breakfast meal is the post cereal. believe it or not, i ate this almost everyday during sahur!

2. drink lotsa plain water daily. doctors advise us to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. but for me, i usually had mine much more than that, maybe like more than 10 glasses? i brought a long my own bottle of water whenever i go out also, just afraid in case i cannot find any.

3. i will always make sure that i never missed my extra daily supplement of vitamin B, C and E tablet (all-in-one) every day that i normally take after breakfast.

4. no no to soft drinks, caffeine, sugar and junk foods. i use to be a terrible addict of coffee but i have stopped that more than a year ago. i have been drinking ovaltine malt without milk since then. whatever it is, i would still drink some caffeine type drink whenever i go out meeting friends etc. once in a blue moon okay what... arr?

5. i never say no to chocolates, alhamdulillah i managed to maintain myself like this. i guess in this case, lots of water really helps.

6. i eat rice at least once a day. that means, if i already eat rice for lunch, i won't do it again during dinner. also, if i eat nasi lemak (which i do only once a while, NOT every morning) for breakfast, i'll make sure to eat less rice for lunch/dinner.

7. i seldom eat dinner. like item no. 4, once in a blue moon only.

8. i will make sure that i will sleep at least 2 hours after i had my meal; especially like item no. 6.

9. last but not least, the most important thing that i practise from my younger years is to kempiskan my tummy whenever i walk. hehe... this one kinda' tricky one huh?!!

1st day of hari raya...

...yesterday was damn busy as usual, like those years back. my staff didn't have time to sit even for a second. i (of course) helped them to fight too! lol... fight with the customers... hehe... rotfl... no lar... where we could fight with customer, no way... i mean, i also "turun padang" to join my staff with the busy situation. anyhow i sent my staff to perform their raya prayers while i stand-by at the cashier counter alone. it was damn silent then but as soon as people finished their raya prayers, it was damn busy non-stop till to-date.

girl cousins

special guest

clockwise from left: auntie mia, enda teh, auntie mek, my mom & me.

megat & auntie mek

i went back at mid-day as relatives kept coming to our house. everyone from near and far were here. my staff also came after they have finished their work. not forgetting my god-mother auntie mek (pronounced mik) who came all the way from ipoh just to visit us for hari raya along with her dot dot dot and dot dot dot, in two other cars. i could say that it was her unofficial trip as there was no official protocol or what so ever. as usual, my sister came with her digital camera when we were at the dining room with auntie mek. "ahhh... this is the hardest part when ina is around", auntie mek said after a few bites of my sister's home-made muffin, followed by a quick laughed by all of us. before auntie mek went off, she gave the kids duit raya. guess what she created a new category under "unmarried" that make my unmarried sisters, brother and cousins also got the chance to receive duit raya from auntie mek and thats including me! lol... ;)

yea... my sister took most of the pics yesterday. i'll update them here after sunday 6 november 2005.

since visitors non-stop coming to our house, my sisters and cousins including me went to our grand-auntie's house later in the evening. we just visit her for the sake of meeting her for hari raya. we then adjourned to another grand-auntie's (late grand-pa's sisters) house around there too. then the last house that we went to was my dad's youngest sister. really had a heavy meals there *phew*

since we are in the millenium years, i also received lotsa raya sms'. these were part of them:

Selamat Hari Raya. From Akiko.

... plus many many more. sometimes i wonder that no one seems to care about the traditional way of sending the hari raya cards anymore. for me, wishes thru cards are more meaningful. but i myself didn't have the time to do that this year. so i didn't buy any single greeting cards from my favourite gift shop memory lane. anyhow i still have to dig some from our old stocks. this is because i still received some raya cards and i have to reply them, namely to auntie gai. she was together with us during my beijing trip last august. in her card, she told me that she will be joining her son who is an accountant to riyadh (insya allah) in october 2006. i also got one card from my first bf, rizal who is now based in ipk jhb (hmm... wonder whether sheryl stumbled into him there lol...). well no matter how i will definitely reply all the cards that i have received.

afdlin shauki is blogging too!

http://afdlinshauki.blogspot.com/

i was bloghopping yesterday that i found his'. i felt so glad as i am one of his biggest fan. at least there's a reason for me to start reading.

i love to read. anyhow since i ventured into this business i don't even have time for my hobbies especially quilting, other than reading. yes i do quilt! hard to believe, huh?!! thats the fact. i make so many quilts many years back until about two years ago... huhu... maybe i'll post some of my quilt pics here someday ;)

back to afdlin... i understand that he just started this blog thing recently... maybe in early august. i think i was still in beijing that i'm not aware too ;) don't worry brother, i'll support you. also keep on blogging!

david

hie world!

looks like the weather would be so fine today. its haze here and there. i can't even saw the sun yesterday.

actually i'm not that good in writing. i've been so eager to do this from long time ago. i did try to write my own hand-written diary many years back. eventually i stopped when i've just started to do it, i dunno why. besides that i knew that my mom read it secretly. so i decided to throw it away and forget about it. now that i found this blog thing, guess this idea would be more fine. i promised myself anyway to do this as far as i could ;)

ok well... i've been wanted to tell you this last saturday morning itself but i do not have the time to sit here and do the blah blah blah... lol. david called! that was about 4 in the morning (i usually wake up around 5). there's no school but i still have to be awake and get ready early that morning tho' cuz my dad went to seremban, his second wife's place. so i have to be there and open our shop. i was rather shocked when heard david's voice :)

he asked of whats happening to me as he never heard from me for nearly 2.5 months. gosh... hard to answer that huh?!!... he told me that he misses me sooo much. it seems that he is working long hours everyday to save more money to be able to fly over here and start new life with me. he also thought of sending flight tickets to canada for me arrgghhh... thats sounds fun. the last time i went overseas was in '98 if i'm not mistaken for my sister's graduation from IC london, england. well, i'm going for a week holiday in beijing in early august. the best thing is i didn't tell david yet! dunno whats he gonna say. a trip to his place is great too, but its hard to tell and convince my parents especially my dad. i know i could imagine mom's fierce looking face. i'm sure they are afraid to let me go alone.

i didn't talk much with jai these few days as he was damn busy, only a short tele-conversation yesterday. he was not feeling well and got a break.

i guess i better get going now. lotsa work to do. i have some nice pics to show to the world, maybe later ok. i am so proud of them (the pics that i'm gonna show) because i dun think some of you bloggers out there know about what we have here.

'till then...

kuE

long time huh?!!...

yea... its really damn long since the first one. i've been busy all the time with my workload what to accomodate my two kids too. thank god, i'm single now since my divorce almost 6 years ago. at least i can do whatever i wanna without obligation. but one thing that alwiz blocked me are my parents ~ treating me like small one (u know what i meant)! grr...

i've been back here in hometown since 2003, worked all the time since then. sounds damn stressfull. luckily a grand-auntie called few weeks ago asking whether i wanna join her in a group trip to beijing from 4 to 9 august with a very good deal. hey, why not... RM1,700.00 lump sum of the whole trip including return flight, visa, accomodations in a 5-star hotel and food. who wanna pull this one right, what when i need some break after almost two years of working non-stop. ghee... can't wait tho'. i just have to make sure that everything is in order before i go i.e. pre-plan, stocks, staffing etc.

wokay, back to work!

kuE

my show & tell of "estet" video clips & book launching...

it was a simple, fun and great event indeed. no doubt about it. so i thought its best to get on with a show and tell...

upon guest arrival, we were greeted by these 2 pieces indian music instrumental... i am so in lurve with it, sooooo soothing and relaxing. click on the pic to watch the video of it that i recorded.

so while i was waiting for my blogger friend to join me, i snapped here and there as usual...

see... even the beautiful high ceiling also! *glurp*

and finally here's my guest, ayuuuuu!!!

the guy on white behind ayu is a poet i think, but i can't seems to be remembered his name ler plak... ayuuuuu!!!... oh you know why i shouted for ayu. that's because she's very good in spotting celebrities in a split second; oh my... i.e. we were chatting then suddenly she was like, "awie!" then not too long after that, "eizlan yusuf!". wahhh... mak oiii... ;~)

p/s tu ler, the other day when i asked in my fb/twitter of who wanna follow me to istana budaya; no one seems to be interested! haa... so i guess it was definitely ayu's day. sampai sanggup anto i balik to my place after that i tell you... :~)

among the guest, obviously

kak jib, executive producer of naga vxs. when kak jib was at the shooting set in kualè, she was sweating like hell, working hard. but that evening she looked sooooo ayu ler plak... ;)

"estet" book has been officially launched in a simple event...

abang mamat presented his speech

launching of the movie's video clips. both of the video clips entitled 'ayuh kawan' and 'cahaya kemenangan' will be aired on tv soon. so they hope that by the time the movie will be screened at the cinemas in december, movie goers could sing along to the tunes in the cinema too! oh btw that's awie in red cap.

then they introduced us to all the cast starting with awie. dah macam in a classroom plak when they had to stand up once they were being called hehee...

with ayu

spoilt ler... cuz of all the flashes from other cameras too. but anyhow i just wanna placed it here too to show you people of how fun this "estet" team.

more... check-out the chinese guy (bottom right) who looked exactly like smashpop! at first i thought why ler he don't wanna talk to me lol... tup tup he's actually one of the supporting actors hehee...

this one is ayu's "photography" work lol... it's of farid kamil's red nike shoes.

with the hero farid kamil
