Batu Caves

This previous weekend we've been passing through Batu Caves every now and then. For Dida's open house, then my Aunt's, then to Myra's bro's wedding.

Once Love and I stucked in the jam, and he said, "Where are we? Why are there so many Mat Salleh here?" He asked.

I looked around, "Owh.. Batu Caves." We both nodded. Pause for a while. "You know I've always wanted to go there."


"Ok. Let's go there one day," He answered, smiling.

"You know, there are a lot of places I wanted to go, simple places like I wanna go to the lookout point, I wanna see sunrise in Broga Hill, I wanna go to Orang Asli Museum, I wanna go play laser tag, ATV, all that nonsense stuff, you know?" I laughed.

"You know what Sayang, we should make a list," He suggested.

"No, no, no, no. List isn't going to solve anything! Let's start now, Sayang. We pick one of the list that we want to do. Let's do it once a month. Let's start next month!" Almost shouting with enthusiast.

"Ok! Let's see.. Take out your calender! What is our plan next week..." And the conversation continues.

I just had that realization last Saturday. I have a lot of simple things to do, other than travelling. I saw Nadrah went for skytrekking and hiking, I was too chickened to do all that, but hey.. I still have lots of geeky stuff that I want to do. Which btw, I haven't.

Previously I thought like my interest was so uncool, like going to the Museum? (Blame it on my Dad, seriously!) Who would have want to follow me there.

Knowing Love, previously he would laughed at the thought of even going to the museum really hard. Now that he followed me to all that places, trust me, he had fun :) After all, I did go to all the Korean events and football matches for him.

So anyway, 16th October, we're going to Batu Caves, yay! Just curious what's inside. And note to self, please start doing all these ok, stop visiting the cinema to see what's new every now and then. There's more to life than that big screen and popcorn that makes the kernel stuck in your teeth!

A new season has begun!

I love it when the new season has finally been released! Now, my torrent can start working again. I've been sick of googling what movies to download. They finally here, yay!

First episode of Glee is awesome! Rachel looks hotter than ever. And that new hairdo.. just the way i love it! But of course, she had to go just a little overboard this time. They have two new characters anyway, still I want Jesse!!!!!!

How I met your mother has a great kick start in the first episode. Starts with Marshall and Ted outside a wedding, and I thought it was Ted's wedding, but it was not. I'm sure hope it wasn't Barney's wedding, if it is.. I'm done with How I met your mother, seriously. They starting to kill all the characters, man! Especially Barney! I miss all his theories, the bro code, the legend.. ary, Season 5 sucks a bit ;p

And Chuck.. Haven't watched it yet, but really couldn't wait!!!

YAY! I love waiting for the new episode to come out!!!! I love it when the season has begun!

Selamat Hari Raya!

First day Raya as a married couple was fun!

I am so blessed that both of our parents house are near to each other, cuz honestly, I can't imagine ever having to celebrate Raya anywhere not near my parents. So I guess u can get the idea as of why i am not doing my PhD overseas. I love travelling, but living other than Malaysia is a disaster, i just know my capability.

So, the deal is like this. A day before Raya in my parents house to help masak all the yummy ketupat and rendang!

Raya eve and Raya morning, in my in-law's.

Afternoon, in my grandparent's house in Kg Pandan where we had bersalam-salaman session with my family there.


Evening to Love's grandmother's house in Jln Duta.

The next day, to Kuala Selangor, my other grandmother's house, where we visited our must-do list for Raya, Bukit Melawati.


And yesterday, we went to Melaka for my mum's relatives houses.

One of my Aunty's has a house very near to the beach, it's like you open the door and, "Owh.. pantai...."

So we brought my niece and nephew with us to find these little guys..

Kasih dan sayang :)

Anyway this is our dinner, seriously, and it's yummy!

Love thanked me like multiple times for marrying him. He came from a small family, never went outstation like this, so he had fun. And i had even more fun. Hmmm.. i wonder how it would be ike if we had a child of our own..


Dear readers, selamat hari raya. Forgive me for all the wrongdoings. Maaf zahir batin!

Sifu

You know the irony of love is that when you love or like that someone, you tend to be so freaking shy to even confront that someone.

Like when you were in primary or secondary school, you saw your teacher in the shopping mall, you'd try very hard to hide somewhere so that your teacher wouldn't see you there. What was it that we were so scared of, I wasn't sure.

After a while, I thought it was stupid.

So, when I got to uni, I'd be like, "Hye Sir!!!" "Hye, Mam" *waves excitedly* while my lecturers looked at me wondering, "Is she in my class?" But, only for a while. After that, I got kinda famous, my lecturers became the one who said "Hi" to me first. But, you know lecturers, they just had to add, "You were absent yesterday!" (Haiyo, mentang2 dah tau I'm in his/her class. Haha.)

A couple of days after Raya, I met one of the lecturers in Petronas near my house. I didn't think he knows me because he never taught me before, but i got so jakun and went to the lecturer and said, "Hye Sir! You're staying somewhere here?"

He looked at me all puzzled and said, "You're not my student, but you looked familiar."

"I am not," I said, laughing.

"Hey! You're not even a student. You're my colleague, why are you calling me 'Sir'?" he laughed.

Owh ya, sometimes I just forgot I'm a staff now.

So anyway, stop with that story. It has been a while, I've been hesitating to meet this particular Sifu.

But this time, I know the reason why.. because I was too scared that it would break my heart.

This morning, I decided to gather all the strength and still, my heart did break with the news.

But the difference when your loved one gives you a news that will break your heart is that at the same time, he will ensure you that everything will turn out to be ok in the end.

Sigh.. it is such SAD weeks. I've been ignoring my PhD research for quite some times because of the news. And for what? The world doesn't stop for my grief.

So, enough with the grief already, from now on, I am going to make a promise to myself. I'll spend 2 days for my research every week. Insya Allah.

HELLO BRIGHTER DAYS! HELLO 1ST JULY 2012, THE DATE I'M FINISHING MY PHD!

Devil!

Mr. H: Why you wanna watch that movie, so merapu ok!
Me: Where got merapu! The Happening best what?!
Mr. H: BEST? Trees that killed people? Best ke? And now you wanna watch devil? A ghost in a lift?

HAHAHA.

Okay, if you put it that way, sounds funny la, i know i admit.

But if you put it that way, even the best movie in history can sound funny.

Transformers?

Robot alien fights in our planet, sounds ridiculous, right? Even in Transformers 1, when Megatron first appears, looking all macho, he looks at the camera and said, "I am Megatrrooooonnnnnn!" Funny, right? Nobody asks who he is.

LOTR? Avatar?

What funny looking creatures kan?

I mean, it beyonds logic, but with logical explanation, that can make it REALLY attractive.

Like how Shyamalan's relate the behavious of the trees to the disappearing of bees that is really happening currently. Dissappearing just like that, without a trace. Even scientists couldn't explain that.

I love Shyamalan. Because his movies never disappoint me (which btw, i didn't watch The last Airbender).

And... Devil.. is by far, the best 1 hour and 15 minutes movie i ever watched. And definitely the best ghost story ever of all time.

Petite

I bought that green top at Gap.

BABY GAP ok. Not GapKids.

If you're wondering how I can fit that, or how small I am (if you haven't meet me), try look at this baby..

His name is Fatih, 4 months old, 9kgs.

And this is my watch.

Fatih can fit my watch so very nicely as if it's his, takde gap at all between the watch and his skin!!

Haiyooo.. Now you cannot laugh at me whenever I bought clothes at Baby Gap. Cuz even GapKids are too big for me :(

Wedding photos

During Ramadhan the other day, I received my wedding album from our official photographer. A month plus late, and the service myt not be that satisfying, but the best thing is that I super love the photos! The editing is exactly like I wanted it to be, bright and natural :)

Let me share some of my fav. shots with my dear readers..

AQAD @ MY HOUSE

After aqad, Love did it 1 shot ok!!
