i must nailed these in my mind n heart!

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

-so, if i want something in my life, i rather start now.if not, i will stuck in this shell forever-

don't compare my life with others! it's never the same even a minute!live in REALITY.


tipula kan kalau cakap tak teringin nak pakai handbag branded mahal2 seperti Coach, ferragamo,gucci,prada, redley, yada yada yada (the list never stop) .tipula kan, kalau tak teringin nak tgk Ilyaas bermain dgn mainan2 first class. tipula kan kalau cakap tak teringin nak beli baju2 branded seperti Osh Kosh, Guess, Mothercare (yg mahal bukan yg Great Value), Pumpkin Patch,...tipula kalau cakap tak teringin nak bagi hadiah mahal2 dkt husband time anniversary, time birthday, time father's day...tipula jugak kalau tak terasa betapa sikitnya duit yg diberi pada parents tiap2 bulan kalau nak compare dgn berjuta2 pelaburan yg mereka dah pernah laburkan utk diri ni...

oh, ok back to reality. boleh ke seluar sehelai berharga rm700 dikatakan murah? crazy laaa, berapa byk gaji dia dpt kalau seluar rm700 sehelai dikatakan murah? kalau rm7 ke rm17 ke, murah la kira.rm70 kira ok-ok.


jgn bersedih dgn apa yg kita tak dapat nak miliki, tp bersedihlah kalau kita hidup hutang keliling pinggang..(hutang zaman moden ialah via credit card ye bukan ditulis dlm buku 555 mcm dkt kedai runcit kat kampung).

Happy 1st Anniversary Abang

Alhamdulillah. Genap dah setahun aku bergelar isteri kepada Abdul Halim Abdul Latiff.
11 June 2010, bertempat di Masjid Al-Mustaqim, Sekolah Men.Sains TSSS, Jam 3.30ptg, kami berdua telah selamat di ijabkabulkan dah sah menjadi pasangan suami isteri.

We meet on 13 April 2010 when I first start my job at CGGVeritas. I noticed him but well, I'm the newest comer in the company, so better be quiet right? We went for training in United States and Singapore together. And of course, the training does help our relationship. Back from Singapore, rombongan merisik pun sampai kat rumah parents on 26 December..tok tek tok tek, we both goth engaged on 27 February 2010 and taaaa daaaa, our souls become one on 11 June 2010.

Alhamdulillah, on our second honeymoon to Pulau Rendang (as a wedding gift from FIL's friend), I was confirmed pregnant with our first child. Little Ilyaas Hafiy was born last 25th March on his 39weeks in my womb. This is a perfect gift to both of us.

I love being married to my husband, the man I love till my last breath. and my ever-green favourite marriage quotation "A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person" is so true cause I can't stop falling in love with him every single days in our marriage life.There is always a reason why I should keep falling for him.

Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.

Akad Nikah Day

2nd month injection + new carseat

Assalamualaikum semua=) (macam ada org baca je kan blog ni, xpe bg salam tu dpt pahala :P=)

Hari rabu haritu, i took half day leave utk bawa Ilyaas Hafiy cucuk for 2months.Remember my last post pasal nak bagi immunization for kids dekat private or gomen klinik kan? So, sebagai seorang umi dan ayah, my husband and I decided to give it a try first dkt Klinik Kesihatan Ibu dan Anak.Honestly, masa pregnant mmg xpernah pegi buat check-up dkt gomen klinik.bukan sbb tak suka or anything, just because my company insurance cover utk pre-natal check-up dkt private, so mesti la gunakan kelebihan tu kan (but tak best mana pun!)

KKIA dkt BBS ni dkt sgt2 je dgn rumah so pagi2 gi breakfast ngn husband dulu then baru gi klinik.dapat first person utk appointment that day. within 0ne hour semua dah settle.dah jumpa nurse for ukuran berat dan panjang Ilyaas, dah jumpa doctor, dah jumpa nurse yg check2 pasal perkembangan Ilyaas + Umi's breastfeeding + dah cucuk..

So, the service mmg tip top, nurses semua baik, selalu senyum and environment sgt memberansangkan..Five Star for this! =) I will definitely take all the injections here in KKIA and will also go to private for injections yg tak dicover di klinik gomen seperti pneumonia injections etc...bukan sbb apa, dah 2 orang nieces sebelah my husband pernah kena pneumonia, so i would better take earlier precaution for ILyaas.

Ilyaas was being good all the time. Handling him alone (sbb hubby pegi keja terus after send us to KKIA), is easy. Not much ragam just nak menyusu je.and sgt senang sbb breastfeed him, dia nangis nak susu, just wear my nursing cover, terus boleh bagi susu dah.no need to bukak botol susu, isi susu tepung, isi air panas and goncang2 botol..easier...if kena buat mcm tu, it will be harder for me to handle him alone. (that's why dah banyak kali i just went out alone with Ilyaas without hassle even for my post-natal check-up at 47days, i drove car with Ilyaas in the car seat alone ulang alik to KLCC-Ampang Puteri...)

Oh, instead of half day leave, have to take full day sbb after the injection, Ilyaas was having fever.Tidak kesampaian pula hati ni nak gi hantar Ilyaas kat babysitter and pergi keja..So I stayed at home with Ilyaas for the whole day to monitor his fever.

ni snapshot yg sempat diambil on the way back from klinik to our house...lihatlah muka Ilyaas yang masam mencuka serta sebek sbb kena cucuk time tgh2 nyenyak tidur...

(btw ni Ilyaas new-car seat , brand safe n sound, bought at babycottage last week. It has four recline positions so we decided to take it.worth from newborn-18kg...original price rm599, tp dpt discount member, jadilah rm479.

Back to work check-list

Assalamualaikum and Hi All =)

I have been a working mum for the last week and IAllah for another years to come. Only now that I realize, being a mother, wife, and also an employee is not an easy task to do. I thought it was easy because my mum can do it, my MIL can do it and lots of women out there are doing it. But I guest Allah has granted women with inner spirit that make her stand all these responsibilities (+ other responsibilities) with calm.

First day at work, only Allah knows how hard it was. Lucky me that I'm working in the same office as my husband.So, he really gave me some courage to stay focus on the computer screen to revise my linux script etc. And lucky me on the first day, I was assigned to PSTM + PSDM for Tembungo 3D, so I was fully occupied and it distracts me from thinking how is Ilyaas doing at babysitter's. Every pumping sessions make me wanna fly to babysitter's house to directly bf him.during the 1st day, I managed to do two pumping sessions, while on the 2nd and 3rd day, I managed to do it three times!Alhamdulillah, rezeki Ilyaas. dpt la around 14-17oz a day.

Now that we have a kid, both my husband and I go to work by LRT and we parked our car at Sentul LRT station. So, if any of us has to do over-time or has unfinished work for the day, either one of us can go back first and fetch Ilyaas from babysitter's. Usually we leave house at 7.30am, send Ilyaas to babysitter's at 7.45am, arrive at office around 8.20-8.30am, and fetch Ilyaas at 6.15pm. Hope this schedule will be fix, at least for one of us.If not, I can't bare to leave Ilyaas longer with his babysitter.

On the first day back to work...it was so tiring and un-expected experience for both of us. We both were busy with work loads in the office and cant wait to see Ilyaas in the evening, Reach home and has to take turn for Asar prayer as Ilyaas was seeking our attention especially from his Umi. Bf Ilyaas, take bath, cook dinner,do the laundry, lipat the baju, thaw ebm for the next day, sterilized all bottles and breast pump equipments, play with Ilyaas etc etc etc...And the most tiring yet a relieving thing to do was eating while breast feed him. He wants to 'gombeng' almost all the time during the night.(Alhamdulillah for that as he still wants me rather than bottle!)and he also meragam a bit during sleeping time hence I have to stay-up till 3.30am.

Alhamdulillah, 2nd 3rd and 4th day, three of us managed to understand each of everyone role and routine better. Ilyaas understands that he has to be send to babysitter's during the morning while Umi & Ayah go to work. He also understand that once we reach home, he will search for my b***st before anything else. Feed him first before I attend other house chores. ..Alhamdulillah that 3 of us are coping well with this routine now.

btw, enough of my experience..this is a thing i want to share with all readers,

masa jalan2 kat sogo last Thursday, terjumpe la dgn this wonderful gadget. sgt berguna sbb baru beberapa hari guna, mmg berkesan menidurkan Ilyaas or at least buat Ilyaas tak nangis bila letak dkt baby cot dia.

After habis nyot2 malam2, I will put Ilyaas on his cot sambil tu dah pasang lagu Mozart from the gadget, tak sampai few minutes, mesti Ilyaas dah khayal2 nak tidur.tp sometime, Ilyaas still wants to sleep sambil mengombeng kopek umi dia.kalau bukak lagu rainforest, lambt sket Ilyaas nak tidur.sometime, my husband n me yg tertidur dulu while Ilyaas kat tgh2 kitaorg..

so kesimpulannya, gadget ni sgt berguna.tak rugi beli.kalau ada yg boleh bacakan ayat quran lagi bagus.
