I was working last Saturday, as expected, not productive at all. I was intrigued to read this one particular blog and so, I read the archive until almost 1pm..after that, I did a bit of printing for next Monday.
Ahaa..yes, good news, TNB has finally approved 5 days working per week...! Gosh, you just could not imagine how excited I was upon hearing the news. Hahaha...!
Nway, after work, went to Chor's wedding in Kajang. Great food! After Asar, went out with him to IKEA to buy a wedding present for our friend. It was nice discussing with him and arguing on what to buy and then finally making decisions together. It was our first shopping spree. Heheh..I dun like to shop with him as I might take my own sweet time and bore him. Vice versa for him too I suppose.
We decided to buy a few stuff and put them in a big box. It will be like hamper kinda thing. We bought a set of knives together with the wood thingy, a table lamp, a wall clock and a picture frame. I think it was a great idea. Kudos to him laa..
Also, I would like to add that I was shopping with him wearing a baju kurung since we went right after I arrived home in Sentul after the wedding...heheh..thank God IKEA has aircond and the weather was splendid.
SUNDAY
Our friend's wedding was in the afternoon. I wore a kebaya..! Pergh..terpaksala control ayu..boring..boring..the kebaya was made of the cloth that he gave as a souvernir when he went to Langkawi last year..and he had been bugging on when I am going to wear it. So, I thought, I'll wear it at the wedding la of course.
The weather was not by my side. I was sweating man..and I brought a T-Shirt and my jeans in case I wanna change later. After the wedding, we decided to watch a the movie 'Click'. So, when we stopped by the mosque for Asar, I asked him whether I could change and he said no. He said "Please wear it, for me"
Haiya..that "for me" phrase really..really works la. How can I still want to change when he said that. Hahaha..! But I told him, let me wear this flat shoes ok. I couldn't stand wearing this high heel shoes anymore. He hesitated at first, but you can't win them all..heheh..
So, there I was at the cinema, very obvious to the public that I just came back from a wedding feast. Hehehe..
The movie was so funny and hilarious la. And full of drama too. I cried when when the scene shows that his mom is still around. Isk..isk..

MOCK INTERVIEWS
Ideas..ideas..where r u..? *Ting*
Hmm..I was asked or forced, heheh..to become a panel for a mock interview held by the lecturers of Technical Communications here in UNITEN. I have been doing it for two days now. Today will be the last day and it will be for 3 hrs..*sigh*
And these students..let me tell you..most of them don't do research about the company. ( we are using a real-life advertisement ok and by a multinational company some more..) It's a position of a process engineer in a semiconductor company...and I would expect them to AT LEAST know the shape of a silicon wafer. One of them even thought that it is a shape of SQUARE. How to differentiate these wafers? Thickness? Diameters? They should know...this is the product of the company maa..
Nway, I am not an expert la in this interview thingy pun. My job was to ask technical questions.
And yes, their English..grammar mistakes all over the place.
Hmm..I guess that's the problem by taking engineering course. They just have to practice solving problems. Nothing much to do with communication. Of course they understand what is written in the text book and in the notes..but to converse..not really la. We the lecturers do wanna make them have projects and presentation but no time la..we have to finish the syllabus. So..lecture..lecture..lecture..

SISTER IS HERE
Pergh..what a weekend it had been. I felt very fulfilled..and happy!
SATURDAY
Woke up at 5am to fetch my sister from the airport. The flight was scheduled to land at 6.40am. But then, me and my mom decided to go after Subuh instead..so, I continued my sleep. Heheh..Reached there around 6.45am. After almost 1 hour of waiting..I saw my sister. Aeda screamed "Mak Ngah..!" and gave me a big hug. Made all the boredom of waiting for them went away..awww...!
We went to the Kajang house and we took Inaas home to Sentul with us as my sister, my bro-in law and Aeda were going to Ipoh for the wedding ceremony of her bro-in law, Chor. It would be a hassle for my sister to take care of a baby in the middle of a feast.
Inaas is so cute and adorable. She thought I was her mummy..and whenever I stood up to go anywhere, she would cry. :)
On the same day, my aunt, Mak Long..was holding a 'kenduri arwah' for my late Pak Long. So, when Inaas was sleeping, I went out to go to her house to give a helping hand. Not much..but it's important to show your face right? heheh..
Managed to steal some time to see him. And we had a talk..a heart to heart talk. Hmm..it's going to be in my memory forever..and it all ended well.
That nite, nothing much, went to the feast, eat2..talk2..and went home and arrived around midnite. But it quite hard to put Inaas to sleep..she slept on my shoulder and whenever I wanted to put her down, she would wake up and hold my shoulder tightly..but eventually..she went zzzzzzzzzzz....
SUNDAY
Went out to watch a movie...REMP-IT..! Hahaha..it was his idea..hihihi..Okla, not so bad. The script was good BUT the ending was so abrupt. I hated the ending.
Nway, after the movie, I washed my Genny, repaired my watch..and had a drink with his friends. Got an sms from my sister, they were in Sentul already.
After Maghrib, me, my sis and my bro-in-law went to The Curve. He wanted to buy uglies from the Canterbury shop. Thank god as there were still some left. The total amount spend there was around RM700 plus.. I told my sister, I could buy a washing machine with that amount. Hahaha..!
I missed my favourite series, Gol & Gincu. Only managed to watch the last 15 minutes. I am beginning to feel a bit uneasy with the episodes. Too open minded. I mean, Malaysia is still an Islamic Country ok? Yes..free speech..open mind but we have our limits and borderlines. :)

TIRED
Yesterday, I had to stay back at work till almost 10 pm since there was a test for a total of 370 students. Hmm..very la the tired..I arrived home..feeling like crashing straight into bed..but, of course not la..I took a bath, cleaned up the kitchen, took care of the laundry and finally had my dinner. Ended up sleeping at 11.30pm.
The preparation for my brother's engagement is not yet started. My mom bought 2 MORE cloths since she can't decide which one to give to the future daughter in law. You see, my future in law already bought the cloth herself and as for our side, we also bought a cloth for my brother and then we exchanged. Easier la kan? But noo..my mom bought 2 MORE and kept asking me which one is nicer. Gosh..I don't like both of them..maybe later when my sister is home, she can have another opinion.
My mom always asked me these questions the moment I stepped into the house. I am tired and just want to freshen up myself a little bit you see. She always asked me at the wrong time and so I can't concentrate and sometimes, I just answered: "not nice la" "why la u bought another one, mak?" pity her...at this moment, I am the only person she can relate to..I do wanna help her, and give my ideas, etc..
Cepat2 la korang balik...!

UPDATE
SATURDAY
A working Saturday..quite productive. Then, went to visit my friend at Selayang Hospital. He has his thyroid removed. So, he couldn’t really speak that much. That time, I really enjoyed teasing him and showing him the food that I was eating. Had fun. He talked by typing on his phone and showed them to me. He typed very la the slow.
After that, got a call. He was busy helping his friend moved to a new home. Then, his friend wanted to treat everybody for helping and I was invited. Hahahah..! We had KFC at Ampang. It’s been a while since I hang out with his friends. Everybody was busy..and at those times, he was away from KL. So, it was nice.
SUNDAY
We watched a Korean movie “ A Moment To Remember”. Ayah, you gotta watch this . It was so touching and so saaaadd...! I cried...
This is the story:
At only age 27, just after marrying Chol-Su, Su-Jin is diagnosed with Alzheimer's. She may not have long to live, but she is determined to make the most of her remaining time together with her loving husband
***********************************************
So, when I watched this movie, the fact that the girl “has an eraser in her head”, that she will not remember her husband, and eventually herself was just so heart wrenching.
The husband even told her: “ It will be like having a first date everyday”..huhuhu..similar to the movie "50 First Dates" minus the comedy part..heheh

THE MEETING
Yesterday I met her. I’ve been waiting to meet her for so long. And with Allah’s will, I finally meet her. It was only for a short while but it was more than enough. I was a bit shy at first. I was not being my bubbly self of course. We could not talk much. The ambience was noisy, there was a karaoke going on. The table was filled with other people, staring at us, at me actually.
Then, as I wanted to make a move, she followed and that was the time to talk to her. Not much. But I think it was okay la.
**************************************************
Yup, last nite I met his mom. (^_^)
Okay, let’s start from the very beginning. His mom was here for a course. She stayed in a hotel in KL…and he brought me to visit her last nite and she was having some sort of BBQ function..hence the karaoke and the noisy ambience. But she knew I was coming la. I was quiet in the car..nervous..should I called her Aunty or Makcik.. call her whatever you want. Well, I called her by her name then..hehehe..up to you ..huh, thanks for the tip buddy..heheh..
I decided to call her makcik. I mean in my family, I called all my aunts makcik..heheh
I dunno whether I have made a good impression or not. I was being myself. I just smiled at her whenever our eyes met...hahaah..! Asyik sengih mcm kerang busuk. ( hmm..why they refer sengih with kerang busuk ek..what’s the connection..I wonder..heheh..)
She is so like my mom. The way she look, the way she dressed. She has that stern face just like mom’s...but she is nice of course. She did asked me where I work..but that was towards the end. Like I said it was the ambience.
He did wish that he could do better in introducing me to his mom. Well, in my opinion, yesterday was okay la for a start.
At least now that his mom knows me, I hope I can pull her mom to be in my side. Mwaha..Mwaha..Mwahahahahah..!

BITS HERE AND THERE
SATURDAY
On Friday, he asked me whether I wanna come with him to Kuantan. He had some business to do there.I said yes of course.
8.30am - I called him and he said that he could not reach his friend to re-confirm the business deal. Maybe he is still sleeping
10 something am - He sms-ed. Still could not reach his friend. He added that if by noon, no answer, then, the trip will be cancelled.
12 noon - Another sms. Confirmed no trip. Asking me whether I would like to have lunch and watch a movie. Hehehe..
So, we watched "The Break Up" at Cathay Cineplex Damansara. Kinda dangerous to watch it with your boyfriend. You tend to support Jennifer Aniston and vice versa. We ended up arguing about it. And that argument lead to something else. Something that did not relate to the movie at all...and I ended up bursting into tears. Crazy!
SUNDAY
He went to Kuantan. He invited me to join him but I couldn't as some relatives were coming over to discuss about my brother's engagement. Is my brother around? NOOO...! All he knows is that when he comes home, everything is done. Isn't that right Payit? Hehehe..
So, me and my mom had to clean up the house..making it more spacious. Prepare the plates and glasses. The discussion took only like half an hour but the amount of energy that was required to make it a success did not do justice at all.
I tried calling him but I could not reach him. The last sms from him was at 5pm. Telling me that he was on the way back. I called at 7, failed. Maybe his battery went flat. I tried at 9.30, failed. Then, at 10, I tried again. Failed. I started to get worried sick. Consoling myself saying that his battery went flat. I prayed that he is ok, that he is safe and suddenly, "tet..tet..tet..tet".
"I just arrived".
Phew...!
MONDAY
I still have an aching back. My feet hurts. I am having a headache. Feel like taking a half day today..*sigh*
This morning I am so grumpy. The students are really starting to get on my nerves. They did not study. Expect to be spoon fed all the time. Making careless mistakes with their maths at which I have to point it out when they could not get the answer. Why can't they just re-check their steps...arghh..!
Tension..tension..!

NEAR AND FAR
HE GOT A JOB IN KL..yeay!Yeay! Finally..! I mean he wants a job in KL soooo...badly..so, I'm happy that he got what his wish for.
Ok..now he is going to be nearer to me. What I'm afraid is that, when we are apart..it is better..yes, better! We have less fights and I am more patient now compared to back then.
I pray that with this new turn of event, we will not get back to square one. You know la, women ni..tend to make a big deal out of everything, we have issues you know. Hehehe..
Of course, the good thing is, I can see him WHENEVER I want. He told me that he's gonna miss I***. Well, of course la, when you are there, you miss KL, and vice versa. If u ask me, right now, I miss my house in Sentul already..ok..ok..not the same. But he will always go back there since that is his hometown, so, no worries dear.
Seriously, you don't know what you've got till it's gone.
I will miss the feeling of missing him so badly when he is away.
I will miss the excitement of looking forward to see him during weekends.
I mean, I hated those feelings, why can't he be nearer? Why does he has to go away?
Now, that he is going to be here, I feel a mix of happiness and a bit of sadness. Like I'm losing something.
Crazy huh?
Yup.
