Yesterday I received a sad news.....my dear cousin Abe Ra had passed away. I wasn't sure what was the cause of his death. Poor my auntie Cik Yah, last July she just lost her husband of 40 years- my uncle, Ayah Sid , and now her eldest son. Abe Ra is not even 40 yetbut according to my sister, Jie, Abe Ra had been complaining of severe head ache since last Raya, and he had to be warded because of that.He almost lost his life once when he was struck by high voltage electric shock at work. He burnt quite a large part of his body, inlcuding his face but he survived. He was a nice person and always in hand whenever we need his favor especially with the electric thingy. He reminded me of my late uncle, Ayah Soh...who used to do this electric wiring in our house (and other relatives)too. ***************************************** Mohd Umran Wan Abdul Rashid, had peacefully departed on 30th October 2008, leaving behind a mother (Nariah), a wife (Wan Rohaya),5 brothers (Umar Khairi, Mohs Zaf...

err...mind the hair... This entry is special for my 2nd princess, Laila Amani. She has turned 6 last 26 October. Sorry Angah for the late entry....it's merely because we went to KK on that day so I didn't have the chance to get myself online. We bought her a cake and celebrated it at 1Borneo, hehehe.....we took her to this playland for kids which they called Boo Boo Land and let the birthday girl enjoyed herself. Jadi laa.....hehehe. I was pregnant with Laila when I was only 26,I didn't have any problems until it came to my 40th week of pregnancy ,the doctor told me that my baby was in a breech position and since I was also over due and he also strongly believed that the chances for my baby to turn into normal position is very low so he advised me to go for a c-section. I agreed. I was supposed to admit myself to the hospital on the Wednesday(23/10/02) but I only went on Friday (25/10/02),hehehe....so I was scheduled to undergo the c-section on Tuesday.....but the doctor pr...

Yesterday I was extremely happy when I received a special gift from a special blogger friend - Eedany . When I heard the horn sound from the post van I just knew it that the special parcel from me was finally here. I was like a small kid ..overjoyed and couldn't stop smiling as my hands were trying to unwrap the box. As I opened it I could see colorful things being carefully wrapped in bubble wraps..Yasmin was anxious too to find out what was that colorful thing. Finally.....taraaaaa......FRIDGE MAGNETS ! Hehehehe..........owh..Eedany...thanks you sooooooooooooooooo very very much for the FMs....I really really truly love it ! Seriously ! Even my kids like them too since they're sooooooo damn cute ! Owh ! I still can't stop smiling ......but unfortunately, since I'm having problems with my memory card so I couldn't snap any pictures...at least for now. I promise I'll snap some later,okay! To eedany..thanks again.....you're such a nice person and I'd l...

Aku kesian la tengok budak kat depan umah aku ni. They just moved in to the neighbourhood last June and me being such a "friendly" neighbour have yet been to their house. I segan la plak......I could see the wife everyday....either going to work or fetching her teenage girl from school. They also have a son whom I guess is 9 years old or something. I kesian the boy ni laa...macam tader kawan. I assumed he is the youngest in the family since tader lagi budak yang lagi kecik dari dia....hehehe.Tiap2 petang nanti dia akan kuar dari rumah dia and dok kat depan tu.....tengok2 orang..walau pun tiap petang boleh di katakan ramai jugak la budak2 dok bermain2 kat lorong rumah aku nie....main basikal ker...badminton ker....budak2 around his age jugak la..but he never bothers to mix around or make new friends. Nampak macam dia boring and tader sapa nak layan dia......kadang2 dia baling batu kat atas bumbung2 rumah nie.....bila orang nampak or tengok nanti dia akan cepat2 masuk dalam rum...

Owh...tersangat la tak sabar...tak sabar nak balik kampung.Hehehe....tiket dah ada...hari2 dok belek2.....macam orang tak balik kampung 10 tahun kekdah nya. Tahun ni kami balik ngan tiket sponsor....sebab tahun lepas dah habis beriban2 untuk beli tiket flight sendiri. Tapi, nak balik kampung punya pasal...tak kisah la.....bukan selalu pon..setahun sekali jer. Cumer starting from next year semua kakitangan kerajaan dari Semenanjung yang bertugas di Sabah atau Sarawak (dan vise versa bagi kakitangan yang berasal dari Sabah/Sarawak yg bertugas di Semenanjung) akan dapat tiket sponsor setahun sekali. Sebelum ni kami dapat for every two years jer ....ni dah dapat tiap2 tahun...ringan la sikit. Kami dah dapat pon tiket untuk balik kampung. Flight kami is on 17/11/08....flight tengah hari rasanyer. Tahun ni kami balik KB dulu......pastu 7/12 baru kami balik ke Pulau Indah pulak. Pastu kami akan balik ke Keningau semula on December, 24......sehari sebelum Krismas. Hmm......jadik la....sebulan ...

Aku sebenarnya nak bitau....aku nak beli macam2 lah. Wah...bunyi konon macam orang banyak duit.....tader la...at least berangan dulu..pastu kumpul duit nanti bulih la beli satu2...bukannyer nak beli semua sekali gus, tapi kalau dapat beli semua sekali gus pon bagus juga,hahaha. - Microwave Oven. Aku memang tak ada microwave oven lagik, aku cumer ada conventional oven jer untuk bakar kek, pizza...ayam....dulu2 rasa cam tak perlu sangat microwave nih sebab kalu wat kek,pizza and sumer2 tuh memang sedap dan cantik kalau guna conventional oven, tapi...bila terpaksa amik masa utk perangat2 lauk2 atau pon time nak cepat masak tp lupa wat keluar lauk2 mentah yg masih keras beku lagi terasala betapa besh nyer kalau microwave oven.....so..aku nak la sebijik, bukan nak yang besar pong, nak yang kecik jer.....jadik la...sekadar nak reheat food and defroze lauk mentah kat peti ais.... - Water heater Dulu masa dok menyewa sumer rumah yang aku sewa tu ada water heater, so kalu nak mandi pepagi or tg...

Wajah2 di Aidilfitri 1429H/2008M

Salam Aidilfitri dari Mokhsin, Zanariah, Sophea, Laila, Yasmin dan Aina Keningau, Sabah. owh...lama nya kita tak bertemu di alam maya ni kan?

Anyway, Syawal kali ni macam biasa la kami sambut di Keningau untuk kali- 6....nak buat macam mana kan....cumer yang istimewa kali ni my sister Siti and her husband Hisham pon datang beraya bersama kami di sini dari sandakan.

Owh...it's been such a long time since the last time I updated this blog. Sorry guys..bukan takmau update , in fact dah banyak kali dah cuba nak taip something pastu tiba2 jer tak tertaip apa2 pon lagi pon sejak bulan puasa ni aku asyik masuk tidur awal...cepat sangat mata ni mengantuk nak2 plak kena bangun sahur awal. Ramadhan pon dah semakin hampir ke penghujungnya, walaupun rasa seronok nak sambut Aidilfiri tapi rasa tak best pulak bila bulan puasa ni dah nak habis. Ramadhan has always been a special month. Time bulan puasa ni terasa diri ni sangat la berjurus .Hehehe.....cepat betul masa berlalu kan? Rasa macam baru jer mula berpuasa..alih2 dah nak raya dah. Dah sampai ke 10 malam terakhir dah....marila kita pakat2 bangun malam...mencari Lailatul Qadr. Macam kita orang perempuan ni..sementara nak prepare untuk sahur tu...ambil la sedikit masa untuk solat sunat 2 rakaat....mintak doa apa yang patut..sebelum masuk dapur tu, mana la tahu kan..? My preparation for hari raya? Hmm.....

Hahaha..akhirnya dapat jugak beli Berita Harian hari Rabu punya sejak dah lama tak beli paper nih. Yelar.....lepas PRU12 baru2 ni memang selera nak membaca surat khabar tempatan macam dah mati terus, di tambah sekarang ni ada macam2 isu....isu minyak..beras.... leewat ....owh bertambah2 tak lalu nak baca paper. Jadi, apa yang istimewa sangat pasal Berita Harian (Rabu, 10 September 2008), hehehe....ni ha..ada gambar adik saya... Ahlami , masuk salam perantauan....dapat je paper tu terus cari muka surat yang tunjuk pasal Salam Perantauan ni lah....dah tengok gambar adikku tu terus tak baca dah berita2 lain. Hahaha....nasib la Berita Hairan...eh, Harian.... Mak Ude and her besties... So to my sister Ahlami...sempena Ramadhan ni dan Syawal yang bakal menjelma ni, jangan sedih2...sebab saya pon tak balik gak raya...raya sendiri2 jer di Keningau with my small yet loud family (hahaha) dengan Kak Tie n Abe Ise......

What is mangga wani ? have you ever heard of it? Mangga wani is the name that the locals here call for KUINI . Owh...sedapnyer kuini. Kat sini sekarang tengah musim kuini jadi kalau pegi pasar tu memang banyak orang jual kuini. Dari jauh lagi bau dia memanggil2....memang kuatkan bau nya? Tapi sejak musim kuini dah mula ni kami tak pernah sempat beli lagi, sebab ada sahabat Ayang ni selalu dok bagi sebab kat rumah dia ada la beberapa batang pokok kuini, jadi dari di biar buah tu jatuh dan rosak dimakan binatang lagi bagus dia bagi2 kan pada kawan2 dan jiran2. So dapat la kami merasa kuini tanpa perlu membeli....alhamdulillah. Anak2 saya pon suka makan mangga wani ni, risau jugak bila tengok budak2 ni makan banyak, sebab kalau siapa2 yang perut nyer tak tahan..alamat nanti dok berulang alik toilet la jawab nya. Hehehe....bila makan buah kuini atau mangga wani ni kena hati2 sikit time nak mengopek sebab kalau kena buah yang tak elok nanti keluar alien dari biji nya. AAAaaaaarrrgghh! Tap...

Sebelum puasa baru2 ni kami pegi KK. Kita puasa hari Isnin kan, kami pegi hari Sabtu. Mula2 aku ingat Ayang nak pegi balik hari jer ..alih2 dia kata tido sana . Banyak hotel yang penuh last2 kami dok Hotel Kinabalu Daya.....boleh laa...tak penah lagi kami menginap kat situ. Tapi bila tgk kan lokasi cam orait la sebab dekat dengan Gaya Street, so leh pegi tamu jalan kaki jela. Pegi KK tu nak shopping baju2 untuk budak2 ni sikit.....untuk bapak budak sikit...untuk mak budak...mmm...ntah..mak budak tahu nak makan jer...hehehe. Lagi satu kami nak pegi ukur mall baru tu... 1Borneo .....hahaha....asik dok dengar orang jer pegi kita pon nak le pegi jugak, betul ke besar benar mall tu? 1Borneo dari jauh So lepas check in je kami terus pegi sana.....ramai la jugak ummat manusia, besar betul la kot 1Borneo tu sebab leh muat Giant kat dalam tu....hihihi. Hari tu kira hari shopping untuk Ayang la kot sebab dia beli kasut sekolah...eh, kasut sekolah plak....kasut kejer..dia kan keje cikgu pegi sko...

The holy month of Ramadhan is here again and I've always loved Ramadhan . The ambiance is different and special. For the past 4 years I've been opening a stall during Ramadhan selling Ayam Perciks and some kuihs but this Ramadhan ...most probably we're closing though it was fun and tiring, hehehe . This year is the year for Laila to start her fasting lesson since she's already 6. Unlike Sophea ,the first morning I woke her up for sahur was not easy...and so did the second morning.....she definitely was testing my patience, hehehe ....but finally she did manage to wake up and do the sahur thing. Training the kids to fast reminds me of when I was small and learning to fast. I started a little bit late than my kids....I guess when I was around 8.....and it definitely wasn't easy for me and I only managed to fast for 2 whole days only... hahaha . And now having kids of my own..it's my turn to train mine. Now I know exactly how was my mom feeling,had to wake...

Every beginning will definitely come to an end and yes, the husband is finally home last yesterday and the school holiday is over too. The kids were so happy to see their dad again and were so excited to explore the boxes, hehehe. Sophea was delighted to get a birthday present from her Mbah...there were tudungs....some kuihs...books and stationaries for the kids.....even Yasmin got her own tudung too and what did my Ayang brought back for me? Hehehe....ada laa...let it be my secret. Since we didn't got chance to go anywhere interesting for the whole school holiday so we spent the whole Sunday eating out and going out. It's a relief to be out of the house for a while...away from the kitchen, hihihi. Though the kids never complained but I'm sure that the were delighted too..to get some fresh air. Owh.....I also had received my Kek Lapis Sarawak that I ordered online. Thank you Alin....we enjoyed the cake very much and my Ayang has approved for a couple more for Hari Raya.....

I received this award from Melati Putih ...huhuhuhu...terharu sungguh ! Tengkiu Melati...so saya ingin panjang kan award ni kepada : - Ahlami and Ise & Siti (adik2 sayer....) - Adrina (sepupu sayer) - Ayang (somi sayer...) hehehe......tima kasih.

Owh..sungguh tak besh cuti skolah kali nie, dah la tak dapat nak berjalan ke mana2, kanak2 ribena tu pulak bermaharajalela kat umah nie....adoi..siap tag team lagi melawan aku...kalah eden....tambah2 lagi....with no husband around. Jadi "ibu tinggal" la aku....hahaha. My husband is away to Klang for a silat tournament dan memandangkan tournament tu di buat dekat his hometown so he grabs the chance untuk balik rumah mak dia jap.......and he'll only be back in Keningau on Saturday. Huhuhuhu...lambat nyer. Last 18/8 was Sophea's 7th birthday. She had requested for a Power Puff Girls cake so....PPG it was. Owh punyer la lenguh tangan nak melukis atas kek...nak mewarna lagi...dia plak request suh lukis tiga2 (ekor?) orang PPG tu.....adoi......tp tu la..anak punyer pasal buat la jugak. We just celebrated the day among us only. Sophea had made a list of things that she would like to have as birthday present but we decided to buy one item only....one of the things in the l...
