Happy 50th Merdeka Day...

Tomorrow is Malaysia's 50th Merdeka Celebration.. for us here, tak terasa sgt since jauh kan.. but we still watch Malaysian TV so, we know all the Merdeka advertisement shown kat tv... (love Petronas advert - the one which yg byk budak2 trying to figure out the name of their tiny country - KITA ).... cute!

...... and every morning I watched MHI @ TV3, so, I do know all the preparations and watched the rehearsal for the celebrations at Dataran Merdeka.. huhu.. cant imagine kalau kena drive pergi ofis at these times. sure jem gile since jalan2 tutup for Merdeka Celebration.. I remembered last year most of us arrived late kat ofis.. stucked in traffic jam for more than 1 hour... muka selamba je masuk ofis since ramai yg lambat gak..

Lat two years celebration I was in Japan, and that was the 1st time sambut Merdeka kat negara orang... buat bbq and @ 12:00 midnite we sang lagu Negaraku (not the Namewee version laah..).. suara mcm keluar tak keluar je nyanyi ramai2 with all Malaysian students and MI*C staffs since we didnt want to wake the Japanese up tgh2 malam buta tu....

This year.. takde ape2 plan pun.. hehe.. sebab hb tak cuti pun. but if I were in Malaysia, I;ll be kat kampung.. since all my other siblings balik kampung.. waaa.. waaa.. rasa nak balik je.. since mama ckp nak buat kenduri doa selamat sikit.. sure bising rumah ngan my anak2 buah.. windu rasa nak gaduh2 ngan diorg..

Anyhow.. Happy 50th Merdeka Day to all Malaysians....

22 minggu.....

Minggu ni dah masuk 5 bulan stengah baby dalam perut nih.. and aku dah mula ada energy balik bila masuk 4 bulan dulu...

Best nye tak terkata when all the nausea and vomitting has faded away and my appetite has came back.. but I'm still sensitive to awful smells (at least pada aku, busuk laa..) like bau2 ikan kering.. or rempah2 kayu manis or bunga lawang.. (huh.. busuk gile..) but at least no more vomitting when I smell those things...

Skang dah bole rasa baby gerak2 and sepak terajang.. kalau pegi scan, bleh nampak dia bejoget2 dalam perut... and she is most active time aku nak tido ptg2 or malam2.. time tu lah dia dok bejoget dlm perut... tapi smalam.. nearly 1 hari aku tak rasa obvious movement dia.. panic gile.. pagi nih.. aku pasang ear phone kat perut, bagi dia dengar radio.. (keke.. bagi dengar hot fm tu...) dia tak gerak2 gak, aku bagi dia dengar yasin kat earphone.. dia tak gerak gak, then aku baring rilek2 and borak2 ngan dia baru baru lah dia start gerak... phew.. lega.... selalunye my dear deboo yg selalu borak2 ngan dia.. and aku rasa dia lagi familiar ngan suara deboo dpd suara aku.. since deboo selalu talk to my belly direct... hehe..

So, kat bawah ni aku share gamba masa mula2 sekali scan.. masa umur dia baru 7 weeks.. masa panjang dia baru 15mm... still takde rupe baby..

and gambar scan dia masa 18 weeks.. masa ni dah clear dah nampak sifat2 dia.. kepala, tangan, kaki... and even masa scan, selain begerak2, aku dah nampak dia bukak mulut as if macam menguap.....

........

Hey. aku tak penah share wedding photo aku kat sini.. Ari ni, genap 8 bulan 11 hari aku aku jadik isteri orang.... Alhamdulillah.... kejap sgt rasa...still in honeymoon mood.. ape tak nye.. hobi kitorg still tengok wedding album... and kengkadang run balik cd masa hari nikah and kenduri dulu... and this week, genap 22 minggu aku pregnant... anyway.. kalau nak share sume gamba, mmg byk gile.. so, kat sini.. aku post gambar fevret aku...

Sempena entry nih.. ni fevret song that I would like to dedicate to dear Deboo.... Sedey aa lagu nih.. I always cried kalau dengar lagu nih.. nnt bila org takde kat japan dah, hope that everytime you listen to this song, it'll remind you of me.. hehe.. just klik you tube bawah ni haa kalau nak dengar ~ one of avril's live performance...

When You're Gone ~ Avril Lavigne

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie
Is made up on your side

When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

Chorus :
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day
And make it OK
I miss you

I never felt this way before
Everything that I do
Reminds me of you
And the clothes you left
They lie on the floor
And they smell just like you
I love the things that you do

When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

*Chorus*

We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were

All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me

*Chorus*

I just realized that....

I dah lama tak borak ngan my father... I mean really borak2....

Well, maybe becoz Babah is not like Mama.. kalau borak ngan Mama ada je menda nak cakap... Borak pasal resepi lah... ngumpat2 Angah or Along or Rizal... Gosip artis pun termasuk dlm topik borak2 ngan Mama.. so, there's soo much for us to talk about.. but with Babah, it's like we only talk about important things aje.. pasal bil keta ke, bil rumah ke, schedule travel ke.. (in case I plan to go somewhere..) pasal weather kat japan ni ke... menda2 centu je, by which 5 minutes pun dah bleh abih...

Most of the time, when I call home, if in case Babah yg angkat, I'll just ask him "Tgh buat ape.?" Then dia jawab, but then dia akan tanye balik "Nak ckp ngan mama ke...?" and straight away pass the phone to Mama... Gee... Since when jadik cemni eh? Anyhow, here are few things bout my father that I would like to share...

• Babah suka masak lemak... especially masak lemak cili api ayam.. and ubi kentang.. (part ubi kentang ni aku rasa dah turun kat aku.. I just Love ubi kentang.. tak kira laa.. dlm masak lemak ke.. or stakat tumis ngan ikan bilis ke... or harsh potato.. or fun fries.. or mashed potato.. or ubi kentang letak dalam sup ayam.. sume2 lah...) In case there's only one ubi kentang left dalam mangkuk lauk, both of us will brerebut nak abihkan...

• Babah suka tengok berita and baca paper... in short, dia memang updated pasal general knowledge and berita terkini... I remembered kalau masa kecik.. even until now.. when he's watching berita, I will ask him this and that. becoz my general knowledge is very2 hampeh... So, while watching berita, I will ask him " Apsal diorang perang, Bah?" or "***** tu ape, Bah?" (in case i dont understand any economical term..) or "Ni sapa, Bah?" (in case I dont recognize Menteri2 kat Mesia ni..) and normally he'll be able to answer my questions.. dulu dia suka tengok berita RTM.. but I normally bising coz presentation berta RTM tak menarik.. prop tak lawa, pembaca berita pakai baju tak cun.. so now he turned to berita TV3.. hehe...

• Babah suka komputer and internet... I remembered when I was in Form 1 (i think) he's the one who introduced to me how to use email... I remembered the first question I asked
  

Me : Cemane kita nak tau kita dapat email?
Babah : Cemana kita tau kalau kita dapat surat? Surat yg posmen hantar selalu tu? (Babah selalu answer a question with a question to make me think...)
Me : kita cek peti surat la...
Babah : Haa.. sama laa... kita cek la inbox kat email.....
Me : Woooo....... (terlopong kejap...)

And that's how I was introduced to the so called email....

• Kalau makan kat kedai, Babah selalu simpan air yg dia oder sampai dia makan abis... normaly air kan sampai dulu, so as for me and mama, makanan belum sampai, air dah tinggal separuh.... then tgh makan, air dah abih.. then we all mintak air babah... hehe... That's one proof that Babah tu penyabar... dia bleh tunggu sampai makanan dia sampai, then simpan air sedap tu sampai dia abih makan...

• Babah drives very slow... slow sangat.. even kat hiway pun kengkadang dia drive 80km/jam aje... adehh.. if I was sitting beside him, (same goes with Mama) we will membebel, apesal slow sangatt?? Laju la sket... or tekan la minyak sket, Bah.... bukan ada kereta kat depan.. I guess that's the main reason that he never involved in any accident... He's really patience.. (Langsung tak samo cam aku... huk huk..)

• Masa muda2 Babah suka naik gunung... I guess I'm the only child yg ikut jejak dia.. my other sibblings tak suka pun pegi jungle trekking or mountain climbing... that's why when I was studying, then I asked for belanja nak gi naik gunung, he never failed to give me... although Mama bising la jugak.. " Buat hape laa gi panjat2 gunung tuh..." but Babah never membebel or discourage me... He'll just ask questions like brape org pegi.. gunung tu kat mana.. pegi ngan ape... brape hari.. al the soalan wajib yg dia kena tanye as a father lah... and kengkadang bagi pesanan2 keramat... I remembered when I went to Tahan, he said "Nnnt time turun jangan lari... nanti muscle koyak..." ( it's true.. masa turun gunung tahan we tend to lari la jugak.. since ada tempat yg clear and macam turun bukit...)

• Babah suka minum air bandung... kalau bulan posa, dia selalu bancuh air bandung dia sendiri... tetiba je time berbuka, dia bawak keluar air bandung dalam peti ais... air bandung dia bancuh best.....

• Lagi satu Babah suka makan - jagung kacau.... ala. macam puding jagung tu.. but takde letak2 tepung... just jagung kacau ngan santan and gula letak daun pandan sket... (resepi traditional takde tepung or custard tau...) Sometimes mama bising coz dia tak rajin nak duduk tepi periuk and kacau jagung tu sampai pekat.. (takes quite a long time kalau nak bagi jagung tu sedap.. api slow, kena kacau sentiasa..) So, babah buat sendiri.. dia beli jagung sendiri, and dia kacau sendiri.. tak payah mama or aku nak tolong dia... tapi bila dah siap, kitorg la jadik tukang sibuk nak makan.... sedap oo...

• Normally, sume baby suka kat Babah.. especially cucu2 dia.. kan some baby takes time nak kat orang... but kalau ngan Babah, kejap je, baby dah gelak2 ngan dia.. I duno why.. sometimes mama bengang jek.. coz cucu slalu nak ngan atuk... bukan ngan opah... penat mama umpan ngan gula2 la.. buah laa.. but ngan mama lambat sket baby nak warmup... kitorang slalu cakap muka babah macam clown kot.. muka pak lawak.. that's y baby suka... dari jauh kalau tengok muka babah, baby dah senyum2... Babah tak buat ape pun lagi... Dah 4 cucu babah centu.. sama jek sume... kalau baby tu dah pandai panjat2, dia suka panjat2 atas babah since perut babah mcm dunloppillow...

This list can go on and on.... nnt if aku teringat lagi menda lain pasal Babah yg aku rasa nak share, nanti aku share... maybe entry lain I'll talk about Mama pulak...

Macam2 ada...

Obong Celebration

last weekend sampai ari rabu dulu cuti obong kat jepun nih... Celebration Obong nih org2 jepun buat utk sambut hantu2 family diorang yg balik le konon2nye... maka, penuh la kubur2 jepun kat sini macam pagi raya kite la jugak.. diorg pegi ziarah kubur family.. siap pasang2 mercun kat kubur tuh.. aku pun tak tau ape motifnye.. rasa macam raya cina pun ada gak.. pasang mercun style yg bunyik kuat gile tuh.. (adeh.. tekejut beruk kalau tgh tido woo...)

Jalan2 kat Jusco

Arituh kitorg gi jalan2 kat Jusco kat2 ngan Omura.. kira 30-45 minit dari umah.. Ekceli motifnye nak carik suar plus baju aku.. suma style dah tak muat.. isk... suar je mesti fail tang perut.. nak butang pun takleh dah.. hua.. Ye laa. dah masuk 5 bulan dah baby dalam perut nih.. kalau perut tak besar2 tak normal la pulak... Sekali jenjalan, teringat nak carik durian.. (iskk. Lama dah aku tringin makan durian woo....) Mama kata, kalau masa pregnant menda yg ngidam tak dapat, nnt baby meleleh jek air liur dia.. hihi.. betul ke? ntah le.. kepercayaan org tua.. ada la logik di sebaliknye tuh.. padahal aku tengok tv, time musim durian, selalu sangat tv mesia tuh tunjuk durian.. kalau tak pregnant punye pasal pun mesti terasa nak makan gak.. Sekali jalan2 kat jusco, Alhamdulillah.. jumpe durian.. rasa nak borong je sume.. aku rasa durian siam tuh.. punye la besar... dgn diameter dekat 1 kaki.. hehe.. tapi disebabkan rega dia nak sampai 3000 yen (convert duit mesia dekat rm100 jugak sebijik tuuu....) jadik terpaksa la beli satu je.. Tapi puas hati gile makan.. isi kucing tido.. hehe.. punye la tebal, sampai keras2 perut makan berdua ngan dear hubby. huhu.. kalau orang tanye ape pengalaman manis dalam hidup, aku akan jawab, dapat makan durian kat jepun.. huhu... best gilee...

Todoroki Waterfall

The next day cuti, kitorg gi waterfall.. lama sangat dah nak rasa masuk hutan balik plus nak dengar bunyik air terjun.. Windu sangat zaman naik gunung dulu... dapat gi todoroki pun kire ok.. ade 5-6 bijik keta rombongan kitorg gi.. including student kat sini.. dapat le ber bbq ngan meal2 lain prepared by wives kat sini.. ade nasik impit ngan kuah kacang, capati ngan kuah dal, bihun goreng, nasik goreng, makaroni goreng (ni aku la yg buat) mee goreng, siap ade murtabak tuu.... ni yg best kalau ade makan2 kat sini... mesti ade variety of food sampai tak larat2 nak makan..
Ni kire 3rd time aku sampai kat todoroki.. dulu pegi masa zaman bujang dulu la... kali nih pegi ade baby dalam perut. tapi best gile berendam dlm air yg sojukk gile.. (gile pun tak sejuk cemnih).. Kali ni pegi, dah tak amik gamba langsung dah... kire nak berendam je la motifnye...

Fukuoka

Balik waterfall, esoknye pegi fukuoka lak.. huish.. byk gile aktiviti cuti kali ni.. motif nak carik car seat baby.. dapek la jugak dgn rega yg murah since kat Babies'R'us tuh tinggal sebijik je carseat baby yg kitorg carik (yg display unit punye) so, murah dia 5000 yen.. hehe.. diskaun rm 150 tuu... hehe.. rezeki baby.. pas gi Merinoa city, stop kat tosu.. kalau ikutkan kaki ngan badan (yg dah berat nih) mmg penat... tapi disebabkan summer sale kat sume outlet yg kitorg pegi, ilang trus penat... sebaik la aku tak leh bershopping baju time nih disebabkan badan tak stable lagik.. hehe.. kalau tidak, mau tak cukup duit bawak...


Okeh.. stakat ni dulu citer kali nih.. nnt sambung lagik..
