Chubby sticks, I heart you!

Okay I want one of these pronto! I went to Kuantan ECM and Sukie the SA told me that none is available there. Kat KL pon die tak sure. She'll have me informed once she has the stock or better still, she'll tell me where to get them in KL. I read some of the reviews and all of the reviewers love these sticks to the point of no return. LOL!

p/s: I wonder which one of these colours will complement my complexion the best?

Whatever It Takes, hunny! whatever it takes...

Told you time apparates.

It is the tenth of Ramadhan already. I am still here in Pekan waiting for my hubster to come back from work. * He works offshore and that means 2 weeks for us and the other 2 weeks are dedicated to breadwinning. Sebab tu la 2 minggu die lupe daratan. Hahahah.LOL!

Sabar. Yerp. Ramadhan is not only about abstaining oneself from eating and drinking and it also teaches me to be patience all the time especially in sticky situations. It is hoped that this Ramadhan would bring all the joy to the world!

For the past 2 months, I had to directly breastfed Azalea when she out of the blue just refused her formula milk. I didn't have any explanations to support this phenomenon. I was clueless. The fact that she is not an exclusively breastfed baby made me puzzled even more! * She was fully breastfed until she reached 2 months old only. What a bummer!

I knew that I was in the dire need of finding an alternative to breast milk long before the arrival of Ramadhan. I exactly knew that I would be in the shortage of milk supply during Ramadhan. I procrastinated, again. I put the blame on you, mr. P!

I searched high and low for the best formula milk to substitute Mamex Gold. I did some research and Enfalac A+ came across. Of course, "Research is a must" kata Takim. It is always a brilliant move to search for online forums that discuss our subjects of interest. By taking in all the pros and cons that are virtually articulated, those discussions would thereby aid us immensely in our decision-making to finally come out with the best verdict.

Setelah berkoyan2 input along with a few testimonials from friends who feed their babies with this FM, we have chosen Enfalac A+ as our alternative. Azalea's officially an Enfalac A+ baby now. This is just an alternative I must say, I still breastfeed her directly at night and whenever the demand arises.

I know it is quite pricey. Tapi, I see this as some sort of a make up for not being able to exclusively breastfeed her for 2 years. Nevertheless, deep down inside my heart I know that this is not a sufficient redemption at all and it aint gonna make up the loss, sistah! Because of this hubs and me promise ourselves to give Azalea only the best! The best of everything so as to redeem all the nourishment that she has missed out! Insyaallah.

In denial.

Makin rajin mengupdate blog nampaknye.

Yes, I couldn't agree more. Research proposal langsung tak bergerak.

I need a kick start. Somebody please kick my arse so I can start working on my research proposal. *ROTFL, please dont take it literally.

I procrastinate. All the time. So what? Everybody does it. That's just so normal, innit?

Good. Now I can keep on procrastinating and jeopardizing my future.

Okay, lets look on the bright side of life, at least I don't just sit back waiting my life to happen, aite? I am being productive here.

Being productive on a task that is not high in my priority list.

Guilty still!

Crazy people who are productive are geniuses. Crazy people who are rich are eccentric. But crazy people who are neither productive nor rich a just crazy.”

Got that? Peace out.

Double Celebrations, Zillions of Happiness and Blessings

Our 2nd Anniversary! (29th May 2011)

Wow, it has been 2 years now living with the man I love and adore from head to toe. I truly love him, yes I do. He is a super cool hubster but sometimes he nags more than I do. We did not celebrate our previous anniversary so grandly. Following our last year tradition, this year it was only a lunch date for both of us at Madam Kwan's Suria KLCC. We had nasi bojari, kangkong belacan and udang petai (his all-time favourite). Why Madam Kwan's? Initially, I planned for a dining out at Ben's KLCC but mengenangkan my hubby ni memangla seorg yang extremely choosy and fussy when it comes to eating, I had to re-plan. To be on the safe side, we went to Madam Kwan's after he was finally convinced by me that all its cuisines would meet the standard requirement of his taste buds :)

A table for two @ Madam Kwan's Suria KLCC

Of coz we went to Suria KLCC due to its nearness to our residential area. Tapi on the second thought, Suria KLCC memangla our favourite shopping mall pon. I've been to Pavilion KL yang orang dok kate best gile tu but still Suria KLCC jugak la best for so many sound reasons! No traffic jams, a variety of boutiques and restaurants, boleh gune touch n go for parking fee bla bla bla and paling best adalah Mothercare punye boutique adalah the largest in Malaysia. In a word, Suria KLCC is the best, period!

This lunch date was not only meant for celebrating our 2nd anniversary, but also to celebrate Mother's Day for the first time as a mommy to Azalea Amani Binti Mohd. Mustaqim. However, that celebration was celebrated without our sweetheart because we sent her to the nursery. *Yeah sometimes mommy and daddy need to spend our quality time together. Prezzie?No prezzie, cukup la dengan our TLC as our gift to ourselves, kan Takim?

My Birthday (July 22nd 2011)

Birthday cake is a must! Thot of indulging Baskin & Robbins Ice Cream Cake this year, akan tatapi disebabkan pulang ke tanah tumpah darah, Pekan Pahang would take a half-hour drive to Kuantan, of which the only place yang ade BR, impian tinggal impian aje la. Tak pe, there's always next time, aite? *pujuk diri sendiri. Last2 layan Choc Mud Cake (my all-time fav. cake) with my family je la. And hell yeah, prezzie is also a must time2 bday ni. If I asked myself what would I want as a prezzie? Of course the answer is handbag. CLICHÉ!!!!It is always handbag! Ya, I must admit that it is always handbag that I really fond of on top of any other things. Handbags are gals' BFF and eventually I was eyeing for this hobo! A to die for Coach Hobo. Did hubby gimme handbag for prezzie this year?

Naaaaaaa. He did offer me that Coach that I wanted so bad. Tapi, this year, ade sikit kelainan. I felt content. Yes, contentment actually prevented me from buying that hobo. I should be! I have loads of handbags and I really thot that we could use that money to buy something else for Azalea or as a means for Ramadhan and Syawal preparation. I guess, the 22nd of July this year was like on the brink of Ramadhan and the spirit of Ramadhan has seeped into my heart. Thank you Allah. Patience is indeed a virtue. Virtue prevails!

I still received a prezzie from him. Nonetheless, this prezzie was tagged as a need and not as a supplementary item. Thanks Hubster, you're simply amazing.

Spent RM370 for that Derma White Serum and the rest was free! Thanks darl for understanding my needs...

p/s: Received a mail from Clinique prior to my birthday and got to pick up this special gift from Clinique plus, a complimentary make-up voucher as well. muchas gracias. That really made my day!!!!

At present, I am 26.

Married to Mohd. Mustaqim Bin Azizan.

A mommy to Azalea Amani Binti Mohd. Mustaqim.

Jobless. Work part-timely as a language teacher.

In the midst of finishing my MA ESL.

Dear Allah,

Please don't overlook me,

As I am so minute and puny.

For I am so hopeless without your grace and mercy.

Protect my family, friends and me

from fiends and foes.

We take refuge from YOU

and only from YOU we seek forgiveness

O Allah,

The most merciful and benevolent.

Ameen.
