Selamat Hari Raya.. Mama Mia!!

In the mood everyone? Well, many things had happened to me lately that surely affect my mood. But anyhow, I have to think forward and enjoy raya. And be positive all the time..

Oh yeah, I just got my hari raya clothes last Sunday. I really love it!! I love the design compared to the one I made last year hehe. Simple and the prices are not that very expensive. I am very satisfied with it actually.

Last weekend, Hubby and I stayed at the Empire Hotel for 1 night. We had a voucher that would expire on the 6th of October, so we have to use it that weekend. It was a fun weekend. After terawih, we went to play some bowling and watch the movie 'Mama Mia'. So coool... I really love that movie. Hubby doesnt seem to enjoy it because of too much singing. But I really enjoyed it! All the songs were very catchy...

Last night was fire cracker galore for hubby's nephews and nieces. We went to gather at my bro in law's house. Hubby bought a lot of fire crackers in preparation for this event. He spent so much on that! We played all the big ones that night. It was fun actually. I just sat down because my stomach still feeling cramped. Sometimes its hard for me to walk or sit.

Before I go, Selamat Hari Raya to all of you out there!!!

Mama Mia! Here I go again!

Sponsored

Went to Miri from Friday to Sunday. Good trip. Not many cars! No que at all at the immigration. I went with my hubby, parents and also my brother. My father bought many new flowers for our house for raya. As for me, Hubby bought me 4 nice blouses. It was nice being spoiled by him.. Hehe. :) My mom as usual, looking for kitchen stuffs. Some stuffs are definitely cheaper compared to Brunei. if you know where to find it. This weekend, I probably think the que might not be as friendly as last week, because salary is already out!

At this time, I am still waiting for my Raya clothing. My tailor haven't finished it yet. She promised at the end of this week. Hehe. I dont mind.. as long as the results are good. This year I made mind less embroidery but more beads. Again, my Raya clothing is also kindly sponsored by Hubby! I LOVE MY LIFE!! Hehe... Except I have to get my own material/fabric, that was the deal in the first place.

New Wire!

Went to my Dentist this morning. Changed to new wire for my braces.. hehe... Doctor said all the gaps between my teeth already closed! He said now I am entering the final stage of my braces.

Snake! Snake! This morning a few of my colleagues saw a long green snake around our office compound. Yuckss!!!!!

Nice Sungkai!

My family and I had Sungkai at I Lotus, my treat! It was a great place to have sungkai. I would reccomend it to everyone. We got the 2nd floor one. The food is basically the same with the one on the ground floor. We also got the chance to meet the owner of the restaurant, apparently, my father's friend. He was a nice guy actually. I love the sweet sour chicken! Crispy and the taste was just right.. good!

Peaceful Sleep...

Wow! I had a very peaceful sleep last night. Hehe. No cough at all! Last night, I decided to eat moderately. And I think that helps!

Today, we are on the mission to print some photos of me and hubby while we were travelling. Still many more to collect from. We want to frame them and put it on our living room wall before raya.

Tommorow my whole family are going to have sungkai buffet, I am juggling between Brunei Hotel or I-Lotus Restaurant. I-Lotus apparently is full and we are currently in the waiting list. As back up, I also book Brunei Hotel. I heard its really good there for a cheap price.

Cough at Night

Cought at night is getting into my nerve. I don't know what to do. During day time, I won't have it, but at night time, oh dear! Hubby would give some vicks vaporub to my foot. I think it helps a bit...

Right now, I am craving for serunding.. Hehe. Maybe I can buy some from my sister-in-law. She make the best Serunding. Very dry, flaky and the right flavour as well.

Friday, thinking of having Sungkai Buffet outside. I haven't decide where to go yet. Found very good website with lists of restaurants. Last year I went to Swensen , Orchid Garden and I-Lotus only. All of them were very good.... Hmm.. where shall we go this year??

Sweet Sour Fish Fillet

For the first time during Ramadhan, I got the chance to make some dish for my lovely hubby. I made some Sweet Sour Fish Fillet for Hubby. What I did was, I fried the fish first using some bread crumbs. For the sauce, use some chillie sauce, simmer them. And then add 1 egg and stir. It will turn into kinda paste type of sauce.. :)

He said he likes it. I hope he is honest with that hehe... Would love to cook more dish for him. Maybe, I will ask him to make some for me. Actually, he is a better cook than me. When we were in the UK, he did most of the cooking :)

Baby sitting...

Hehe.. Yeah, Yesterday, Sateria and I baby sit 10-month old Faiqah (My sister in law's youngest daughter). It was fun actually hehehehe.. I really love her. WE bought her new toy, musical rabbit. hehe. Maybe next week I want to baby sit her again!

Gerai Ramadhan Lambak

Yesterday I was craving for chicken tail for sungkai hehe... Near to my house is Gerai Ramadhan Lambak. The place is recommended, if you dont like very crowded place like the one at the Stadium. Me and Hubby went for a walk to that area. I foundthe Chicken Tail! Hehe. Actually I am also craving for Milo Bars. Anybody seen it before? Its my favourite. I cannot seem to find it in the shop anymore. They only have the nugget type... but not as nice as the Milo Bar.

I know... :)

I know what most of you are thinking right now! :) I know.... :)

Well.... I have been very busy with the Japanese Summer School for 1 whole month (22nd July to 24th August 2008. It is a programme by which a group of 9 Japanese students will come to continue their study at the Institute of Medicine. Plus, some outside activities such as OBBD, Hadrah Lessons, etc. Actually, Friday and Sunday were also used up! I am glad that its over, but I was very sad when I saw them at the airport before they leave.. :(

Many things has happened for the past few monthsm good news, bad news. I gave my first public lecture on the 27th of August about calories. I think I did ok. I hope that most people would learn something from it! I noticed that I had lost a lot of weight, now it totals up to 6 kilos. Please don't ask me how I did it, I didn't wish for it actually. I thought abt maintaining weight, not loosing them.. Sighh... Anyway, great news on the 24th of August as well. Will not tell you at the stage, will tell you once it is confirmed.. :)
