My Weekend

Tired, exhausted..
On Saturday, went to KUSESS to give Anje 100% moral support since she'll be seating for her PMR. Penat siot..We had a so called picnic, and it was fun. It's been long since we gather the whole family in any outdoor activity.

On Sunday went to shop for my makeup tools and cosmetics, berlari ke sana sini. And berlari again to catch up the movie Angels & Demons with Sid.

The movie was superb! Puas hati beb..As good as Da Vincci Code. At some point, I think this one is better!









On top of that, hatiku sngat gumbira karena telah completed all my makeup needs! There'll be a Grand Opening launching soon. Stay tune..

Kaki cramp sepanjang weekend. So as my jari-jemari..

Tomorrow will be heading to Seputih Kapas Spa for makeup session with Akmal and Ecah.
Cuti was successfully granted. However need to cut into half day since nak submit proposal and tetibe plak ade malaon tak siap quotation lagi.

Working on your own business allows you to get free time whenever you want. Says who???

To be, or not to be?

Dia datang lagi. Si dilemma tu la. Always there when I don't bother to need any. Never been there when it's needed.

Dr. X called lagi. Everytime when he called up, tade lain but new potential project. And each time, I had to withdraw due to incorrect timing matter. Oftenly I was up to something, or in the middle of something. Today, he offered a job lagi. Very good, and high potential one.

The project seems in a very high potential. Role: as founder and developer of this new product. Stability wise, not bad since the chairman pun my former VC, Dr. Zohadie. Tapi on top of that, aku rase letih pulak la involve in a role as founder ni. Risky. Kalau jadi memang meletup giler2. Kalau tak?? It's not like doing project for Masters ke Degree ke. Kalau tak jadik, berbulan la ko menganggur. Plus, dah lama giler since I last practice my engineering. Nape plak Dr. X dengan confident nye mention nama aku? Adoii pakcik ni pun satu..

Meanwhile, currently I'm in a role as a good daughter. Being there when daddy needed. Though the pay taklah banyak mana, but I feel good dapat tolong mana yang perlu especially dalam sesak2 nafas ke kan. It's the least I could do. Iyeke?

Dilemma: To be or not to be? Should I or shouldn't I?

Knowing myself yang never consistent, though I remember in my few posts previously I did mentioned that I wouldn't go for other job. And knowing me as the one with full of 'what if...' quote, I would say what if this is one opportunity that wouldn't come every second?

Oh aChong dearie, I'm truly in your shoes...

Note 1: Can't wait to get the project accomplish!

Weekend Sama Siapa?

Assalammualaikum w.b.t

It was a tiring weekend. In fact last night balik from studio jer terus boom..tidoq..langsung taleh bukak mata..hukhukhuk..

Attended course with Nurul Shukor. Okla mak tu..sporting giler. Agak garang, but garang2 sayang gitu. Banyak giler tips dia. Bnyk giler skill dia..Amazed, truly amazed. Bridal makeup rate for Nurul Shukor ni RM1.2k-1.5k ye kawan2..But the touch memang superb! Ade discount for student..ngeee..

Day 1: Nurul taught the skills, tools, sume2 yang basic la..bertuah badan si dia kena tonyoh ngan Nurul...
Nurul's before & after.

See the one yg semangat pegang cam tu? Yupe, that's me..Day 1 was very sourceful. Turns out there's a lot of skills that I never discovered within myself all this while.

Day 2: Test! Grrr..
"Mak nak tengok gak skill korang. Buat2, mana rotan aku?? Hawau ko Pondan!"
Keluar dah Melaka dia..But he's really2 nice. Friendly, humble, sourceful, and most of all tak kedekut ilmu. No extra charge for his secrets skill. Siap bagi secret ingredient lagi ko..

Yang aku pelik tu, dia soh mekap partner masing2 with Bridal theme. Tapi bila tang aku dia soh buat dramatic plak..hancuss muka ku. Kesian partner. Since mataku sepet and tade eyelid, 80% of the makeup si Nurul yang buat. Pastu dia syok plak berjaya timbulkan eyelid aku. Takpela, kira untungla aku ni tak perlu bayar RM1.5k for her touch..yuhuu!Then when it came to my turn make up my partner, still nk maintain the dramatic theme lagi. Berketaq tangan mak beb cikgu dok kt sebelah jer tak gerak2. Org lain tak nak pulak dia tengok..huhuhu..But he's very helpful la. Best sangat!

And here's the result..Tak puas hati sebenarnya sbb tak cukup tools. Color shades pun tak cukup. Pkaila mana yang ade jer..Dramatic bride. However, nak lawan cikgu punya pasal I've tried to maintain the soft look. Overall, memang best. Team pun best. Anyone yang nak ambik makeup course, I strongly recommend her. Memang langsung tak berkira. Sayang ko mak..
I'm certified now. Makeup anyone?

Ratu Hatiku

Kamu si Ratu Hatiku..
always there from the start
till God knows when..
No such words to say how much I thank you
Indescribable is how I describe you..
I love you with all my heart
And I know my love could never be more than yours
No matter how much I try,
it could never be more..
Tahun ni, I'm saying Happy2 to 2 Maks..
Big Hug, Mom

Boleh pulak..

Benarkah aku dah tak reti pakai tudung bawal?
Ke muka ku semakin bulat?
Laen macam je aku tengok..
Peningkatan sebanyak 6.5 kilo bukan satu kebanggaan.
Before kancing seluar aku tercabut lagi,
And before piping seluar aku tertetas lagi,
Elokla aku sedar2 kan diri sket..
Hari ni performance indicator aku beeping lagi.
Baju kurung suppose to make us look kurus kan?
But then bila baju kurung pn dah tak muat camno tue?
Bukannye selalu mentakedarah tak hengat dunia cam dulu2 lagi..
Lunch break pun tak lunching tau..
Tapi weight loss tracker tu tak jugak berganjaknye..
Segala tok nenek kebaya ku dh kena pile up kat store je skang..
Tengok jela yg mampunye..hukhukhuk
Saat2 camnila terasa nk makan masalodeh..*drooling*
Tapi kancing kain baju kurung ku tercabut lagi :(

2 Posts in a Day!

I'm a 'busy' woman. So I have a lot of time posting new entries today. Something to share with you. I'm gonna talk about cooking receipe (yela sangatt).

We call this Kacang Phool. It's a receipe originated from Arab, turun temurun from my great2 grands yg came to Tanah Melayu for berdagang. It's a receipe pass down for generations of Hasbul something2 family (can't even remember my last family name as it's been discarded since grandpa's generation). I think it's al-Hasbul la. During our couple of Umrah trips years back, kitorang dok melantak benda ni je since ni je yg xberapa pelik pada perut kitorang. Since the trips weren't under the Tabung Haji, and so the food pun ntah pape jer. Survive sendiri le cari makan yang best sket. Nevertheless, this meal is quite popular in S'pore. Here it goes:
Ingredients:
500 gm kacang parang (rendam semalaman)

150 ml minyak masak

5 sudu besar minyak sapi

3 biji bawang besar (potong dadu)

3-4 sudu besar cili kering kisar

2 biji tomato buah (potong dadu)
300 gm daging lembu (kisar)
1 tin kecil tomato puri (kira-kira 70 gm)

2 sudu besar jintan manis (sangai & tumbuk/kisar halus)

1 sudu teh lada hitam serbuk

2 sudu teh garam (atau secukup rasa)


Garnish
:
limau kasturi (dibelah dua)

cili hijau/merah

bawang besar (dipotong dadu)

telur mata lembu

french loaf (klu kat Arab ni derang makan ngan pita bread yg besar gabak tu je)


Method:
Kacang parang direbus dgn secukup air sehingga empuk. Kemudian kisar sehingga ¾ halus dgn menggunakan lebihan air rebusan tadi. Kalau suka, segenggam kacang ini dibiarkan sebiji-sebiji. Panaskan campuran minyak & minyak sapi di dalam periuk. Tumis bawang besar sebentar lalu masukkan cili kering kisar. Kacau dan masak sehingga cili garing lalu masukkan tomato buah. Kemudian, masukkan daging kisar dan kacau lagi. Kalau perlu bubuh sedikit air. Seterusnya, masukkan kacang parang yg telah dikisar tadi. Gaul/kacau rata-rata lalu masukkan tomato puri, jintan manis, lada hitam dan garam. Kacau sehingga rata dan matikan api. Hidangkan dengan cili hijau/merah, bawang besar dadu, perahan jus limau kasturi, telur mata lembu dan roti perancis (ni org S'pore bilang, org M'sia bilang french loaf)-S'porian's accent je yg pakai 'bilang2 ni'.

That's the old method. Skang ni pakai kacang parang dlm tin cap ayam tu je pun bleh. Blend, then masukkan jintan and badam sket (both in serbuk form), tumbuk black pepper skit, masukkan garam secukup rase. Not to forget sket je cili boh nye. Then masak sampai boil. Serve with telur mata lembu (I prefer yg lembik2 tue) , cili hijau, bawang besar skit, melted minyak sapi (pour as garnish instead of cooking it all together), limau kasturi, and makan dengan french loaf. Siap!

See, saya telah merealisasikan one of my '09 Goals list. I know aChong won't dare to eat this. It'll be kinda pelik stuff for him and he won't take pelik stuff. Nevertheless, still count as one and more to come (iyeke?). Hampeh je kan masak simple camni je. Bertuah aChong berbinikan aku..

One down, 9 to go!

Bear in Mind

1. Majlis walimah dibuat ikut sunnah iaitu sekadar tercapai maksud utk menghebahkan perkahwinan & lahirkan rasa bersyukur.

2. Adat yg diikut hanya yg selari dgn agama, bkn yg brtentangan & menyusahkan.

3. Hidangan & segala persiapan dibuat sekadarnya, tidak membazir & berlebih-lebihan
"Janganlah kamu membazir kerana sesungguhnya org-org yg membazir itu merupakan saudara syaitan & syaitan itu amat engkar kpd Tuhannya" (Al-Israk;26-27)

4. Kaya & miskin dijemput, bkn hanya org kaya yg diraikan
"Makanan yg plg buruk adlh makanan dlm walimah yg mengundang org-org kaya saja utk makan, sedangkan org-org miskin tidak diundang" (Riwayat muslim dan Baihaqi dari Abu Hurairah)

5. Tetamu diraikan sama rata, tidak terlalu mengistimewakan layanan & hidangan utk org berkedudukan.

6. Hiburan yg diadakan sesuai dgn akhlak & sayriat Islam, bkn hiburan yg melalaikan & menghingar-bingarkan majlis.

Seberkat-berkat majlis ialah majlis walimah. Tapi sayang sekali kerana ramai yg mensia-siakan keberkatan yg diberikan oleh Allah SWT khusus bg mereka yg mendirikan rumah tangga.

Semoga aku tak terpesong dari yang wajib dan melebihkan yang lagha. Amiin..

I'm in Love

Salam,

I think I'm in love..
with The Body Shop..
Suke the 'save the environment' value
Suke the campaigns and charity
Suke the points get for every RM spent
Suke the 'this is a recycle paper'
Suke juga the 'paint with water base ink'
Suke the 100% plant based products
Boleh bawak sembahyang
Suke the brush set yg sangat cheap yet sangat best!
Sukee giler....










Aku jatuh chenta lagi..
Once upon a time, we were in love
But then we broke up over a betrayal..
I betrayed The Body Shop for more branded chemicals
Now we are back together..
I'm moving back to The Body Shop.
Farewell my dearest Dior, MAC, Bobbi, Givenchy, and sume2..
See ya again in my wedding hantaran!
*no exceptions ya aChong ku sayang*
