My 35th Birthday

Happy birthday to me! I'm officially 35 years old! He...he...I am blessed and I thanked God for a wonderful birthday yesterday (21st July). Not forgetting my beloved family and friends (You know who you are!)

I got a surprised yet the best birthday gift ever from my beloved hubby :)

I don't have a driving license yet, but hubby encourage me to drive. Oh well, its been few years but I really hope I'll have the courage to drive one day! (Guess I'll carry forward my previous resolution to 2013 :p)

A friend of mine insisted on buying a dress for me, but instead I'm asking her to reload Celcom for me! *LOL* Actually I bought too many dresses through online shopping lately, so I prefer something else. I'm glad my friend don't mind...he...he...thanks Jenny for the airtime reloaded :)

By the way, I did receive another mystery gifts from another friend. A sexy underwear and a necklace with the words 'LOVE'. Thanks Luz, I really appreciate it.

I'm still waiting for another parcel from my childhood friend, Alice Sambah. I might received it a bit late, but its okay because I know it contain butterfly motif :)

The best things I did before my birthday is to do crazy online shopping especially on dresses! I love wearing dress! I can even wear it to church, which is more comfortable. Dear hubby, thanks once again for the $$$ (I know you'll read this later!)

Anyway, after church, we went to Thai Steamboat. Just a simple birthday celebration with my family and friends. Hubby asked me to decide and I definitely would like to have steamboat with them. More enjoyable and we can spend hours of talking, laughing and eating of course :D

1st round. After that, I forgot to snap the photo :D

Thanks once again to everyone for all the birthday wishes and prayers. God bless you all too!

How I wish this is real :p

9th Wedding Anniversary

We just celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary on the 21st June, 2012. How time flies! I am blessed to have such a lovely husband and kids.

When I woke up on that morning of 21st June, hubby already went to school and I saw this written on the white board. Just a simple yet meaningful message from him :)

Awww...so sweet!

My wish is granted...he...he...Hubby bought a new kitchen cabinet for me. I like it!

To my hubby, I love you more than life itself and so thankful that we met. Happy anniversary!

Happy V-Day!

I know...happy belated Valentine's day! Better late than never, huh? Actually, I just recovered from a fever, the worst fever ever! I even lost 2 kgs! I can feel that my body is lighter than before as I can't eat at all. I vomit all the time, maybe because of my sore throat too :(

Anyway, I went out with my mom on V-day afternoon. I accompany her to a bank then we had our brunch together at one of the Chinese restaurant. We both love dim sum!

Later that night, my hubby and I decided to have V-day dinner together with my kids at my parents' house seems only my mom and my youngest brother are there. We took away chicken satay and BBQ chicken wings.

When we arrived at my parents' house, my mom did cook veggie for our dinner too. It's very simple but I'm so happy to celebrate it with my family. Unfortunately, I forgot to take the photos...starving la :D

My Newborn Niece

Finally, my niece (Ezra Ejhez Ezwan) was born on 8.8.2010 at Likas Hospital, Sabah. She was born at 2.55 pm and her weight is 2.6kgs. All of us are so excited because she's the first niece among us, my mom's first ever granddaughter.

I went to KK later that afternoon with hubby and kids. We arrived at the hospital around 3.30pm. It was a tiring journey as we have to go back to Keningau on the same day. However, as long as I managed to visit them, I'll be satisfied already.

Here are some of our photos.

Hi friends, it's been a few days I didn't update my blog. I'm creating another blog for my kids. Feel free to read it too eventhough I haven't finish it yet. Oh well, sometimes I'm out of idea, don't know what else to type!

By the way, we went to Kota Kinabalu (KK) last Wednesday (14th April, 2010). It was a last minute decision as my hubby got something to do in KK but he still wanted us to go with him. Well, I'm so happy because I can drop by at the Warisan Square to buy my favourite Big Apple Donuts! Ha..ha..

We departed from Keningau at 1300hrs and arrived safely in KK at 1430hrs. After my hubby's work is done, he brought us to our favourite place, La Manila Cafe in Warisan Square for lunch. Gosh, we are so hungry! Unfortunately, I forgot to take photos..ha..ha..I'm having my favourite Carrot Juice and BBQ Chicken Rice while my hubby and kids are having Fried Rice and Carrot Juice too.

After lunch, I went to Big Apple Donuts outlet there. I bought three boxes of donuts for myself, my mother in law and my mom too. I was so happy because I met my Facebook's friend, Juliana as well. Actually, she's an ex Unduk Ngadau Lahad Datu in 2008. I was so suprised to meet her there and again, I forgot to take our picture together. She is very pretty and friendly.

My friend, Juliana & her hubby

We have to drive out from KK by 1630hrs because we don't want to be caught in a heavy traffic jam. Eventhough we are in KK for only two hours, but I'm having a good time with my family. Well, the next day is a school day, so we can't stay overnight in KK. We need to go back to Keningau on the same day.

On the way back to Keningau, we drop by at my hubby's hometown in Papar. My mother in law isn't around. So, I just put the donuts in the fridge. I'm sure she'll be happy to know about it. We don't want to be caught in a heavy fog too. Therefore, after taking some mangoes, we went home as soon as possible. We arrived safely in Keningau at 1900hrs. Thank you Lord for blessing our journey, Amen.

Weekend Gathering

How's your Easter? Mine was great! Last night we have our family gathering at my parents' house. We enjoyed our steamboat very much. Unfortunately, I was busy chatting and eating with my other siblings and forgot to take photos..ha..ha..but they remind me earlier not to take their photos because they know that I'll upload it either in my blog or my Facebook! Actually they are too tired after a long journey that morning, so they are not in the mood of taking photo. Oh well, I managed to snap one photo before the eating session.

Playing cards before the eating session

By the way, on Saturday morning, we went out to Taman Bandukan Recreational Club (TBRC), which is located just nearby the Sungai Bunsit, Keningau. We just have a walk as there are too many people on that day.

Nice place for relaxing!

Waiting for their drinks

As for today, we bring our kids to their favourite Lovely Saloon. After that, we went to my parents' house again for lunch. We supposed to go fishing with my brother in law, but seems it was heavy rain, we canceled our plan. I prefer to stay at home, watching tv and of course updating my blog and Facebook.

My kids and their new hairstyle!

Well, mo more heavy foods for tonight. Tomorrow is another busy day, school session! Hope you are having a great weekend too.

Trip to Lahad Datu

I went to Lahad Datu (LDU) with my family on the last 26th-28th March, 2010. Eventhough it's only for 3D/2N stay, but I'm very happy to go back to my hometown.

On the first day, we departed from Keningau at 0800hrs. We are using the short cut road through Tambunan-Ranau, but it still a long journey to LDU. We only arrived there by 1700hrs. I really miss our house there, especially my dad! He's so skinny! I guess that I'm heavier than him..ha..ha..(I love you dad!)

Suddenly my old neighbours came and guess what? They said that I'm getting chubby! Gosh, hu..hu..what can I say? They didn't see me for more than 10 years!! Oh well, my weight is 58kg now, so another 8 kgs to be reduced...LOL

Later that night, we went to one of my favourite restaurant in LDU, Dovist. Well, I love Chinese foods. I'm eager to eat the Siput Tarik with Sambal Belacan! It's so yummy!

My lovely family

4 Seasons Beans

My kids' fav, Sweet & Sour Prawn

Corn Soup

After our dinner, we went to Bandar Sri Perdana, just about 5 minutes drive from our house in Kg Muhibbah. I was so proud of LDU! Lots of good changes, but...I hate the traffic jam! He..he..I can't stand it!

On the second day, I went to Fajar Centre to meet my ex colleagues at Borneo Nature Tours office. I really miss them! We planned to go out together that night. Then, I went to my another favourite Chinese Restaurant in town area. I used to call it 'Kedai RM5' because all the menu will be charged RM5 per bowl/plate. You should try their Iced Milk Tea too. Gosh, so yummy!

It was heavy rain that afternoon till 1800hrs, so we just stay at home. I'm looking for my old pictures. Wish to share it with all my Facebook's friends soon. Right now, I'm so lazy to scan all the photos..hmmm..

About 1930hrs, my friend, Anita came to fetch me to a new restaurant in Bandar Sri Perdana. It was another branch of Dovist restaurant but this one is more to western foods. I did enjoy myself that night, having a long chat with all my ex colleagues till almost midnight! Here are some of the photos. By the way, once again, all the foods are yummy!!

Mixed Vegetable Salad (Mine)

Lamb Steak in Black Pepper Sauce (Mine)

Carrot Juice (Mine) & Special Passion Tea

With my ex colleagues

On our last day in LDU...sob...sob...I was so sad to say goodbye to my dad. Wish he will go back to Keningau as soon as possible. I was worried for him to stay alone there but he'll be back as soon as his 'kebun' is okay. Well, it's very hard to find an honest worker to look after his kebun.

Sayonara LDU...gonna miss you!

AF8 : Getting better or worst?

I'm still tired, just came back from Papar (My hubby's hometown). I really enjoyed myself yesterday. Firstly, because of a good news that we've been waiting for. Unfortunately, my hubby remind me not to share about it in my blog (Let it be our secret...he...he...). Secondly, because finally, we went to Suria Sabah. We didn't make it last time because our youngest son is sick. Well, nothing much to see as the mall is still consider new. Not many shops are open yet!

Anyway, what do you think about the Akademi Fantasia Season 8 (AF8)? Honestly, to me, it's quite boring than previous years or maybe it's still too early to make a conclusion? I don't know, but as a fanatic fan of AF, I'm hoping for something new, something which is more happening than before. I do like some of the finalists, such as Ain, Iwan, Alif (based on their vocals & performances during concert). Unfortunately, if based on their appearence or behaviours during Diari AF8, it made me sick!!! However, no matter what, I can't help myself to watch it as I'm always be a reporter to my family and friends...ha...ha...

One more thing, I realised their concept this year is quite similar with American Idol...oh well, correct me if I'm wrong! I'm a fanatic fan of American Idol too and my favourite finalists this year are Casey James and Aaron Kelly! Opps, back to my topic. I thought that Aznil will be the host again but Sarimah Ibrahim is not bad. However, I guess this is Jimmy's first experience to host a reality program. Therefore, he has to learn more!

By the way, I'm happy to see Adlin as one of the jury. He's like Simon Cowell, very honest in giving comments eventhough it might hurts their feelings. To be a star, they have to learn, to accept the criticsm. Oh well, hoping for the best performance in next week concert! Good luck guys!

I'm Back!

Finally, I'm back. In front of my laptop, with no idea what to type. I'm not feeling well since last Dec 2009. On off sickness...hmmm...because of the damn hot weather. I had a terrible fever, flu, sore throat and cough! I hate cough because I can't sleep very well especially at night.

I had recovered from those sickness last 2 weeks and now I had it again! Gosh...luckily it's school holidays. I can have a good rest at home as my hubby is around to take care of our kids and do the cooking! Thanks hubby, I really appreciate your help...muahh!

Well, nothing much happen to me last few months. Most of the time I'm busy with my kids and I'm quite lazy to do the house chores...ha...ha...By the way, after 12 yrs, I'm starting to write in a diary again! Actually, my mom gave me the book because I like the cover but I made it as my personal diary now.

My 2010 diary

Last 24th Feb, 2010 is my eldest son, Randall Vince's 6th birthday. We made a simple celebration for him at my parents' house. Randall also got belated birthday cake from his aunty, who came all the way from KL. Thanks for the cake! It's really yummy!

Happy 6th bday Randall!

Belated bday cake for Randall

Wow, time past so quickly. It's already 40mins aft midnite! I better go to sleep now. I'm going to KK tomorrow with my hubby and kids. Got something very urgent to do. Will update about it later.

Gotta go, good nite...zzz...sweet dreams!

Happy New Year 2010!

Finally, it's new year. Another chapter in a new book of 2010. How's your new year's eve last night? I'm helping my mom with the cooking for new year's eve dinner. I've tried a new recipe, Prawn Curry (which I've never tried before). It's yummy but I still prefer Butter Prawn or Sweet and Sour Prawn. Actually, I'm not really into spicy foods.

Udang Masak Kari (Prawn Curry)

The other menus are Ayam Masak Kicap, Ikan Stim Tom Yam, Sup Daging + Kundur and not forgetting my mom's hot and spicy Sambal Belacan! Berasap telinga..ha..ha..and for dessert, my younger sister is preparing Fruit Salad.

Fruit Salad

I'm sure you are having fun too last night. No matter where or how are you celebrating it, I wish you all a blessed New Year 2010!
