CAK!

Over the weekend and the Maulidur rasul public holiday, nothing much happened...me attended a wedding, a reunion cum farewell hi tea, watch movies...

The movies i went to was Street Fighter and The Watchmen....I watched Street fighter at GSC Pavilion on Saturday and The Watchmen at TGV KLCC on Monday...Street Fighter starred kristin kreuk(Lana Lang in Smallville). Michael Clark Duncan(played a falsely accused prisoner in the green mile) but the story i found to be very boring, too much hype out of nothing...Street Fighter tells the story of Chun Li (kristin kreuk) who searches for her kidnap father and when her father died, planned revenge on his father's captors...the usual martial arts, kungfu fighting...

The Watchmen, another much hype but boring story...tells the story of superheroes who came back from retirement to protect the world from nuclear war back when the cold war time...this story first of all, there was no rating for it - it has some scene which i found to be obscene like a love making scene, the main hero Dr Manhattan is a mutant who are blue and naked, during the beginning there was like an underwear covering him but towards the end, the part was just blurred...me was very 'keliru' watching this movie...pening2

On sunday i attended a wedding in Kg Pandan, a son of my hubby colleague got married...reached there around 12 30pm, trus mkn buffet style, x sempat nk tgu berarak pn coz time tu org tgh ramai and tpt duduk terhad...

after the wedding, me went to Jusco Tmn Maluri jap sementara tgu time nk gi my fren house kat Bdr Tun Razak, jemputan nye kul 2 30pm...pusing2 kat situ tgh sale pulak tu, bought a NYC brand sandals to replace my sandal yg telah 'hancus' dek kena ujan time gi melaka n JB aritu...very comfy sandal ni...memandangkan tgh sale tu, me gi renew ler my jusco card...ramai gak kat customer service counter, siap kena ambik nombor...so round2 lagi sementara tgu my turn....lps dh renew jusco card, me trus beredar to my fren house...

sampai there, ramai gak org kat umah die, rupenya die ade buat doa selamat sekali in the morning....oh yea, the occasion was a reunion cum farewell hi tea coz my fren tu nk sambung buat PHD kat UK and 28hb ni dh nk fly off ...so dptlah jumpe geng2 lama kat rumah dier....So all the best Zarul, this time katanye 4 years so itulah dier dh siap warning dgn kitaorg nnt kat airport suh smua nanges sesama dgn die....hehehehe...tgklah kalo ade kelapangan that day, i might come to KLIA and send you off with the others...so below the piccas taken at his house that day...mmg miss sgt geng2 ni smua, masing2 dh bz and dh lost contact tp dh dpt sambung balik thru myspace and facebook...

Zarul (in black)

so thats all for now....AF7 have started but so far has not really sit down and following the diaries....so no comment yet

Cepatnye...

Cepatnye masa berlalu, dh bulan november, bulan depan disember n tahun baru...

my 1st entry for bulan ni, 2nd November, my father's friend ajak satu keluarga to his house in Damansara, kira after raya makan2 coz this year die x buat open house, die ajak a few kawan2 je...so we went in 2 cars and reach his house around 2 pm...mmg xde org pn just the family and my family je and 2 ladies, friends of the host wife . This is my 1st time to their house. The husband and wife are from terengganu so the menu was nasi dagang, kari ikan tongkol, kueh tiaw goreng, fruit punch and puding...smua wife die buat sendiri...sedap gak and she even take order kalo nak...kira original made from Terengganu and on that day baru me tau, nasi dagang terengganu and kelantan berbeza dr segi lauk sampingannye...Nasi dagang Terengganu di hidangkan selalunye bersama kari ikan, paling popular ikan tongkol manakala Nasi dagang Kelantan dihidangkan bersama rendang ayam/daging...acar dan keropok juga ade dihidangkan bersama. Memandangkan my father dh lama x jumpe his friend , me and my siblings balik dulu naik my sister's car.

Workwise, bulan ni quite busy coz bulan ni ade filing and submission of tax return and my immediate boss lak dh 2 minggu mc - sakit mata...so hopefully die sempat review my work before the submission date, end of this month...ade dalam 10 company gak lah...

oh yeah, on 31/10 aritu ade post mortem on 'ghayo kek kampung'. Just to discuss abt any weakness or dissatisfaction among the members. so it was an open discussion and more or less each of us had a chance to voice our views. There was around 12 of us in attendance that day which was held at LALA SEAFOOD Restaurant in Kg Baru. The meeting was supposed to start at 6pm but finally started at around 7 30pm and adjourned at abt 9pm. So the conclusion was that there are still much more to improve and learn from the good and the weaknesses for future event/programme reference.

I was on MC yesterday for sore eyes...yup! dh berjangkit dgn my bos lah ni but luckily not so serious and im back to work today...kena apply eyedrops lah tiap 4 hours...xleh nk mc lama2 coz monday ni nk kena gi Income Tax office and kena settlekan keje kat opis.

That's all for now.ciao and l8er

GHAYO KEK KG NUBHAN, JUASSEH

26/10/2008

Me and hubby bertolak dr umah dalam kul 8 30 am dan we stopped for breakfast at Seremban R&R, had nasi lemak and milo. We fill up petrol at the Petronas there and then proceed to Juasseh at around 9.30 am...Actually this is my 2nd time to Nubhan's house but 1st time driving on my own and was quite worried abt going up the Bkt Putus stretch and on finding nubhan's house. The rest of the gang has already left the day before. But I did asked for the direction from one of them and hopefully i wouldnt get lost.

Alhamdulillah the directions given was easy to follow and we reach nubhan's house in Juasseh at abt 11 am and was able to drive in to nubhan's house as the road quite narrow and small. Only one vehicle can pass at one time. Once there, the rest was busy doing some last minute things and me and hubby brought 2 hampers with us given by sponsors. me help a little bit here and there and around 11 40 am, the gang wanted to get changed and ready for the majlis scheduled at 2pm. me and hubby decided to follow them to the house they were staying, which also belongs to one of the nubies there, Fikri . So once there at the house, we each takes turn to shower and changed into our baju kurung and baju melayu. All of us came back to nubhan's house around 12 30 pm and there was already a lot of the org kampung there and we just started greeting and meeting them. But still there's always time to pose for pictures....HARUS KAN!

Two of nubhan's batch from AF 6 was also there to memeriahkan majlis hari itu, Toi and Faisal and was mobbed by the villagers and nubies. They was very friendly and sporting throughout the evening, posing for pictures, singing karaoke and even playing games. So itu yg buat all mmg enjoy and happy sangat! Games played was mencari sampul duit raya dalam tepung and berjalan sambil memakai tempurung kelapa...great fun seeing them playing the games...nubhan pn ade join gak 'tolong' budak2 ms time games.



I put a lot of pictures here coz pictures can tell a thousand words and can tell the story on its own. Hope that me can share on how fun and enjoying that day was through them. The food served was nasi putih, ayam masak gulai lemak, daging salai masak lemak cili padi, umbut, ayam goreng, rendang daging N9 style, lemang, kuih bakar, kuih lapis, agar2 n kuih koci...sedap2 belaka wo! I won a spa voucher through the lucky draw but not sure when to go yet...its in Kota Damansara...At around 6 pm, the programme came to an end and of coz group picture time and some personal pictures with nubies from Johor and Kota Bahru, ehsan and iras...
And it was time to say goodbye

one last look before leaving nubhan's house

THE END

MAKAN2 RAYA AIZAT

25/10/2008
I went to Aizat's AF5 makan2 at Grand Ballroom, De Palma Hotel, Ampang. The invitation was from 11 am - 4pm. As me leave in Ampang Jaya, very near to the hotel, me n hubby went there at abt 12 30 pm and when we reach there we were greeted by Aizat's cousins at the door and were asked to proceed to the buffet table. macam2 ada too much to mention but the most special was Aizat's family favourite : kari ayam sempalit from their hometown in Pahang. Being from Pahang also, mmg xleh miss lah mkn kari ni, sedap wow!...mkn cicah dgn roti...yum2...nampak je i ni kurus tp kuat makan OK!...

some of the spread


but i terlupa lah nk tangkap gambar kari ayam sempalit tu...itulah sedap sgt mkn...kalo sampai ke Sempalit, Raub do try the kari ayam k...masa me sampai, x nampak Aizat coz die tgh di interview by press, and me saw some of the guest are reporters like mama juwie, huzz and even nazmi (x sure btul ke nama die) from melodi was there. Shila from OIAM 2 was also there and even perform with Aizat for 'HANYA KAU YG MAMPU'. nice combination of voices. It is well known by all that Aizat's family are all musically talented so Aizat did a duet with his sister Juai and even his uncle khalid sang 'STILL' by the BEE GEES, mmg sebijik mcm BEE GEES, siap ade getar2...hehehhe...quite a big turn out that day...of coz me make a point to take photo with Aizat. Kena take turns gak lah, ramai yg nk bergambar dgn die.

Aizat segak berbaju melayu

We left around 2 30 pm and proceed to Kg Tunku to my cousin's house, die ade buat makan2 raya gak. My parents and siblings dh gi dulu earlier coz the invitation was from 12 noon to 3 pm and my mum asked me to still come to my cousin's house. So though the road was quite congested with cars, ramai yg kuar beraya kan coz dh last week of raya but we managed to reach his house exactly 3 pm. tawakkal lah kan tp nasib baiklah bila kita org sampai masih ramai kat umah die and i even apologised to him if im late but he said its ok....phew! lega coz this cousin of mine and family mmg very strict abt time...so apalagi, makan ler....the menu there was mi kari sarawak made by his mother in-law (mmg sedap), makaroni goreng (my favourite) and then biase lah ketupat and rendang...nasib baik weather ok, me n hubby sat inside the house coz kat luar meja dh penuh. so that's abt it, we pn x stay lama, abis makan je trus balik home. Dh kekenyangan sampai umah apa lagi tido lah. THE END


(next will story abt Ghayo di Kampung Nubhan in JUASSEH)Tungggggggggggguuuuuuuu!!!!

MAKAN@ RAYA (18/10/08)

like i wrote before, now i would update on the makan2 on saturday (18/10/08) . i have 2 invitations for makan2 raya, one from cita in subang jaya n su, my ex-colleague in old klang road. Cita invited me via sms on Friday and she puts the time at abt 1pm. so on saturday me and my hubby went to cita's house 1st and reach her house at abt 1.30 pm. But once we reached her house, her house was very quiet. So after ringing her bell for a few minutes, finally cita opened the door and she was still wearing her house coat. She was surprised that i came so early coz the others was supposed to come later at abt 4pm. how do i know?! nobody told me abt the change of plans....so although awkward n embarrass, we were invited in and her father was even busily vacumming the house...kesian gak tgk dorg kelam kabut, but me pn xkan nk balik coz i've already got plan to go to Su's house right after. so while the family was getting ready, me n hubby occupied ourselves looking thru their albums. The whole family went to Seoul on 2nd of hari raya for 5 days. So luckily, the food was ready and we end up eating together with her whole family cos smua pn dh lapar kan. She served lontong, sambal kerang and sambal paru2...yum2 my feberets. lepas abis mkn, me n hubby try mkn cookies lak but not long after that we make our move to Su's house lak. Her parents tanye gak x mau wait for the rest of the geng ke but takkn nk duk lama2 kan, dh lah terawal...hehehehe. So i just manage to take one photo with Cita. Next from subang jaya, we proceed to old klang road via the NPE so xlah jauh sgt. Bila reach rumah Su lak, her house was penuh dgn her relatives and other friends, mmg tgh packed lah time tu lagipn die dok kat apartment ...again i nye timing x betul. i thought my office mates was already there but according to Su, they went to another friend's house first. dh tu sampai2 je, su nk kuar ambik kawan yg x tau jalan, so we were left there at her house so apa lagi make ourselves at home, makanlah....her house served mee sup and kari, white rice with a few lauk - sambal sotong, ikan masin...itu je yg i ingat...xdelah byk jenis tp cukup sedap gak. so we tak stay lama sgt kat umah su coz mmg time tu umah die dh packed sgt. so just took picture with her and then balik umah.

so that was my weekend activities for that week and mmg kekenyangan lah...
