Liberalisation

I was given a few hours to come out with a detail paper and MULTIMEDIA presentation on liberalisation.

baby cocoon

This is what I plan to do during my lazy Sundays.
Cozy for newborn baby and superb for photoshoot.

*must search for the right yarn first*

Hannan Gallery @ The National Palace

THANK YOU VERY MUCH NANI from HANNAN GALLERY!!

I have less than 24 hours to prepare for a function @ Istana Negara. Called Nani around 7pm, went to her house at almost 10pm and she got the right baju kebaya songket for me. With a matching SELENDANG. A must-have for attending any Palace's function. Thank you. Thank you. Lucky enough, my husband have the matching baju melayu set.

(I left my camera inside the car since I only brought a tiny evening clutch - hence no photo during the function).

Nyam..nyam.. Marche revisited

Went to Marche@The Curve. Unplanned. And we eat a lot (as usual). My sis' treat. Before we went back, we put his son on the RED COW and she duduk jauh2 like taknak mengaku kenal org2 ini. HAHAHAH.

Habitat fever is here...

We are now having habitat discussion e.v.e.r.y.d.a.y - for World Habitat Day 2009. Am currently preparing the multimedia presentation. We'll be having lotsa TRIPSSS to all over Msia, sleepless nights, etc etc LATER (as in, next week).

BAAZAR update

Just as I expected. The first batch is run out of stock in less than two hours. Made an SOS call and the second batch arrive ON TIME from Gombak. 1.00pm. I dont know the current flow of the 2nd batch, but I know I am proud because..... isk isk... [ below ].

NEW PACKAGE!!

I received a HUGE package today. It is full with Old Navy Sleep Set for 3 months up to 5 years old. VERY CUTE. I dont plan to post it in Nabell because I am sure it will be out of stock in NO TIME at our baazar. Have a look :o)

PAC M48

I joined PAC M48 2009 from 22-24 May 2009. It was a BLAST! I will update this post in stages because I have to edit a lot of photos.

For a start, PAC M48 was held at INTENGAH, Jalan Emu. (Yes, it is Jalan EMU). *lol*

This is an Emu. (Alright.. I will delete this when I found it not funny anymore).


















Once arrived in INTENGAH, I searched for registration counter and received my MAGIC NUMBER.

When you are a PTD Officer, you have to expect to wear this Magical Neckgear, around your neck *duh*, at least ONCE. In this case, it was my second time.





*to be continued after Malaysia-New Zealand Free Trade Agreement negotiation ends*

Lazy Sunday 02

Experimenting with t-shirt crochet since I received a bag full of old t-shirt from cousin Niza and her family. [thank you].This time I go for a bowl. I found out that thicker t-shirt is the best for crochet bowl since it will stay in shape better.

Also made a CHICKEN FINGER PUPPET for my husband, for no reason. He likes it a lot. Then, comes lion finger puppet, elephant and mickey mouse for the kids.

korek hidung

*catchy title - on purpose* it supposed to read holiday maker.

I told several friends that we plan to go to Perth to celebrate my sons' birthday. It was just a PLAN. [It could be Singapore or Miri or just Langkawi]. I got several remarks which owe my explanation.

NO, i dont make A LOT OF money monthly. [frequent *nightmare* oversea travels with VVIPs actually makes me poorer. No, it doesnt increase my payroll :p]

NO, i am not that RICH although I have an online business.

My emolument meant to cater my commitments - PTPTN, savings, mom, dad, bills, childs' saving, childs' education plan, car + motorcycle installments, buying nappies [no I dont plan to use cloth diaper for the moment] and other neccessities.

My income for Nabell meant to buy new products and topping up current stock. Plus our staffs' salary.

And we dont have EXTRA money to spend for Perth. [or Singapore, or Miri, or Langkawi]. We dont plan to mess with our savings, either.

The interesting part is, we are going TO CREATE THE MONEY. And I'll be updating you on our effort. I will introduce you to Shortfingers. Short, what?

PEMBERIAN T-SHIRT SECARA IKHLAS

All,

Saya memerlukan t-shirt terpakai (yang masih elok condition-nya, wangi, tiada koyak atau kotoran, yang tidak lagi dipakai kerana fashion-nya sudah tidak in atau badan sudah jauh bezanya dengan saiz t-shirt tersebut atau t-shirt tersebut dihadiahkan oleh pakwe/makwe yang sudah clash tidak lama dahulu). Warna-warna vibrant amat dialu-alukan. Namun warna gelap tetap disukai.

T-shirt tersebut boleh diserah tangan bila jumpa di mana-mana gathering nanti. Atau kita reka2 saja gathering semata-mata nak serahkan t-shirt. Tangan saya gatal untuk buat beg crochet. Malangnya, sudah habis t-shirt terpakai di rumah saya, saya kerjakan.

[wah... i found it really hard to type a post in Malay].
searching for a proper word is hard.
Anyway, I realllllly like my fren's blog. She have "that" sense where most people doesn't.

New "thing" for our playground! Yay!

Thank you DBKL (yes, thanks to you Y. Bhg. Dato' Ahmad Fuad Ismail, my former boss who now is the Mayor of KL).

Although the thing (still, I dont know what people call it) has not completely being installed, but we decided to give it a try. Everyday. Their favourite spot is the CHICKEN POX area.

Go Green Júlíusson way

Since many of my friends is going green nowadays (cloth diapers, reusable bag, composting, recycling, bla bla bla), so, here it goes. Another area to venture.











Check out that ring on her finger. It’s a combination of jewelry and gardening. Iceland designer Hafsteinn Júlíusson wants to bring nature into everyday couture. This form of jewelry is not for everyone, however. One must take good care of their Growing Jewelry or else it’ll fade like any other plant uncared for.

Hafsteinn states: “It is important to take good care of Growing Jewelry. The owner must water it regularly and nurture it like any other plant. So it’s up to the owner to make sure that the jewelry is at its best.”

crochet freak

what stand between me and my son's ultraman is... a crochet headgear to protect him from the dark force attack.

lazy sunday...

Lazy Sunday.
Thinking of opening my own Etsy Shop.
Gonna sell it at USD20 [who said handmade items are cheap?].

Made of 5 T-shirts. I love the broad sling. And I love the heaviness since the bag will not slip down my shoulder. Do SMS me if you interested. I'll sell at RM50 :o) well, OK, RM45.

WORK?

I just started work after 2 months maternity leave + extra 3 weeks off.

I was a good start. I joined the Malaysian negotiation team for the 9th round negotiation of (i cant tell you what) with the Government of New Zealand. The session stretches from 23 to 26 Feb 2009. It started from 9am to 9pm. Everyday. Tense. But it is a good feeling to have after a long relaxing holiday.

Last time I involved in the same session with the United States for one solid week. And next month, I will meet the team from Australia pulak. Mmm...

But the best thing is - in the middle of the craziness in the negotiation room - I am able to expressed 300ml during the day. So, no worry about the "supply". I got another 3 litres in the deep fridge :o)

The baazar on the 26th? Well, someone else will take care of it.
Bye for now. I need to tune my head for the session tomorrow (read = sleep).

Ode to Kangaroos

Went to Victoria and Western Australia last time, touched a couple of koalas, wombats and kangaroos. Am deeply hurt at the thought of kangaroos die in the recent Victoria fire.

I heart kangaroo…

Qasida Burda @ The Poem of The Scarf

Currently in love with Qasida Burda. For those who haven't heard of it before, click here. Listen to the Qasida and read the English translation. It is excellent.

why hiatus mode?

because i am having a blast with my family :o)

i took 3 extra weeks off from work after 2 months maternity leave. Main reason : we are trying our best to adjust to our new life with the new member of the family. My husband is a stay-at-home dad (yeah, very rare), he makes the transitional period VERY interesting.

OF CUTE STYLE

Got these for my kids.
I dont buy attire with cartoon or animal prints for my kids (yeah, you saw them wore it once or twice - those are gifts). but this time, i just cant say no :o)

It wasnt much of the print tho. It was the monkey pant cutting that melts me. Thanks Steph!

Photogenic?

This is my one month old baby (OK, his kaki only), modelling for Wear Me bootie.

Jangan contohi aku

Ya Allah Ya Tuhanku,
Ampunkanlah aku kerana mengeksploitasikan anak bujangku untuk buat iklan ini... Amin.

The Moment

THE BIG DAY

2^nd December 2008

1.00 am – Contraction getting intense. Gather bags and kids. Made phone calls to relatives and text my mom at Mecca. Leave kids at granny’s house.

2.15 am - Arrive at labour ward. Bla bla bla. Fetal distress. Emergency c-sect….

4.15 am – My baby was born.

6.30 am – I can move my hand. Text the good news to the world.

Still in pain after 9 days. No more c-sect pls.

zoo again and again and again...

My hubby was kind enough to frame my ZOO drawing because my dear kids really love it. They learn a lot from that esp the meow-ing and roar-ing parts. Were looking for a thick white frame with a white board, but to no avail. So we just settled for the brown frame with a beige board. It actually looks good since the frame matches the road.

We hang it for a while at the living room so the kids could look at it everyday (wah, sudah syok sendiri ni). After my maternity leave, I will definitely bring it to my office.

The nyonya at the frame shop told me, "Wah... talented kid u got meh... U shud bring her to drawing competition anywhere lor..".. Ow, thank you, thank you. Now I am confused.

complicated life (dramatic, no?)

I am in the midst of completing a shades of green crochet blanket for my baby (I dont mention which baby, so, it would be fine if I complete it in another 2-3 years time, no?).

Am also trying to crochet a simple bootie (in case HE IS A BABY BOY). But…. There’s a problem tho. I couldn’t manage to crochet SIMILAR bootie for BOTH SIDE. One is perfect while the other will be *shorter*, if not *smaller* or senget or suddenly become square or totally ends up with different design (like, one without a button and another one suddenly got button *%&$&!!). **Lotsa trial and errors involved here**.

I don’t know why this time, SIMPLE thing seems VERY COMPLICATED. I had crocheted many other things before. No mistake in the calculation. Why…o…why…

ZOO.. again

There are some ppl interested to know DETAILS on my winning entry from drawing competition last week. Here are the explanation (boy, I hope everything else is easily recognisable) ;

sneak preview - designer's bean bag

Designer's bean bag for kids. Fits newborn to 5 years old. It will be available on my online store next year since the custom-made production will commences next month. Here's the sneak preview of the bean bag and my kid relax2 on it while watching TV. Very convenience. Comfortable. (Yes, only that size. That pattern/shape. But, different DARK colours available).
