Busy week!! Was not able to find time to log into blog for the past few days. IDMS course in KLCC turned out to be one of the most interesting courses I've ever attended!! It covers topics on IDMS performance tuning which is really cool.. and something that I've never bothered to consider when I wrote a program before ... but this will definately changed in the future! :)
5 days travelling back and forth from Bkt Beruntung -> Bangsar -> KLCC -> Bangsar -> Bkt Beruntung are really tiring. Not to forget, I need to stay after the course in the office to get some works done. Come what may.. aerobic class on Friday was still on!! :) It helped to loosen up the tension in me :)
Back to the office on Saturday with lots of works waiting for me... *sigh!*. Hubby had gone to Guoman in PD for a seminar over the weekend. I thought he'd be back late on Sunday, so I took the kids, mak and Rika for a drive to 1-Utama... leaving the house empty. We were at Sg Buloh toll when he called saying that he was already home by 10am pressing the bell of an empty house :) I made U-turned at Sierra Mas and headed straight back home. Since the kids have not been anywhere lately, we decided to take them for an outing to Sg Sendat in Ulu Yam last Sunday afternoon. The trip to Sg Sendat turned out to be like a 'camel-trophy' ride!!! It was quite secluded and everyone (except the kids of course) was a bit worried as we were not familiar with the area. The road is rough!! But the good news is the water is very cold and crystal clear!! We didn't reach the water fall area as we did not dare to go any further. But we had fun anyway, and Alhamdulillah, nothing scarry happened. Two-thumbs-up to our adventurous-Kembara!!! :) We would have turned back if hubby had chosen to drive our Altis :)
Hmphh... the count down begins... 24 more days to D-Day... our trip to NZ! :)

Everyone looks tired this week after having too much excitement in Bentong :) I was a bit cranky at the beginning of this week.. I blame it on PMS and the fact that we did not have enough rest during weekends :) Alhamdulillah, today is Friday and tomorrow is the 3rd Saturday holiday... yeay!!! Sunday is the election day and I am really looking forward to vote for the first time ever in my life!! :) Friday also means aerobic day! And there'll be a doa selamat tonight at our new neighbour's house.
At last minute, I was told to go to IDMS Advance course at KLCC from Monday to Friday next week. Sounds tough... but that's the trill of it... of all the senior executives, I am one of the lucky ones chosen to go for this course :)

Believe it or not, I had an amazing experience at Eco Dusun Resort!! I was a bit nervous in the beginning.. but alhamdulillah the activities were not so bad afterall. We reached at the resort at around 4pm on Saturday. The bus stopped at an area where a few small trucks were waiting for us. We had a great time riding at the back of the truck enjoying the jungle fresh air.. BIG time!!! :) Jun, TDa, Da and I stayed in a room next to Masrul, Wardi, Bujal and Faris. Luckily, there was no 'skodeng' cases... keh keh.
At 12 midnight, everyone but Mariani were lined up in a line to do jungle tracking. We were divided into 4 groups and each group will use different paths. Each member of the group will have to explore the path alone upon their code is being called and only after he or she has reached the stopping point, the next member of the group will be called. Each members can only called for SOS maximum of 3 times. It was scary at first... groping the the dark.. torns everywhere, obstacles that we could not see... but yeap! everyone managed to conquer their fear and did it amazingly well!! Alhamdulillah... :) We slept around 2:30am after such a tiring activities.
The next day, we had to do repelling ( I was the first person in the whole team to perform this... such an exciting experience and I don't mind doing it again!), obstacles activities (which was fun as well, I'd say!). Experience with Tok Batin is a different story... the so-called Tok batin and his son were really scary!! It was a creative activities on their part to put more colours in the training. But the message was there... they taught us on how importance the team work and communication is. The morning activities ended at 2:30pm and by that time everyone was looking forward to have a cold shower and eat lunch. We gathered at the hall for finale activity and I was chosen to do a speech on behalves of the ladies... sheesh!!
We left the resort on Sunday at around 5pm in the evening. Reached Dataran Maybank at around 6:40pm.. and later, I had to drive alone to Bkt Beruntung after such a tiring weekend (pity me.. *sob*!) ... and reached home at around 7:15pm. I missed the kids so much... it's so good to be home!! :)

Izzat did it again!! This time he splashed a box of hubby's just-bought-2-days-ago hair gel all over the floor... I was in the bathroom then and got suspicious when I heard a noise. And by the time I found him... the gel box is already empty... *sheesh!*. What am I going to do with my boy...?????
Continue packing as the final preparation to go to Bentong.
This morning.. after kissing and hugging all my loved-ones, I drove my car to work and planned to leave the car overnight until I come back from Bentong. Everyone is all packed and ready for the outbounce training. Pretty exciting, eh?

Went to SOGO during lunch hour yesterday and bought a new track bottom (yeap.. another one!) just for this coming out-bounce training. TDa bought a new bag.. Pierre Cardin gituuu...!!!
Started packing last night. Izzat was being cheeky again... he spilled my shampoo on the floor while I was busy searching for my things at the other room... and again, as I was really2 tired, I got really upset with him. I guess he just wanted my attention and being a busy mom I am.. I sometimes take him for granted and get easily annoyed when he doesn't behave. I'm so sorry Izzat... mama loves you so much.. *hugs*. After I've finished packing my things.. I hugged him and let him sleep while watching his favourite Barney...

Went to Mid Valley during lunch hour and dropped by at the Clinique counter to meet my favourite 'Autie May-Clinique'.. :) As usual she gave me a box of Soya bean drink.. hehe. I bought a big bottle of moisturizer, a packed of 3 facial soaps and a brand new lipstick!! :) My son has conveniently destroyed my lipstick last weekend at his Wan Chik's home - sorry to mess up your wall, Wan Chik..!! :(. Anyway, all in all... it cost me RM253 on all the Clinique thingy... minus RM20 Jusco voucher... credited RM233 to my Master Card... hehe!! Sorry hubby... if I have extra balances in my accounts this month end.. I'll help you to pay the master card, 'kay... *grin* :) Or just consider the RM100 I debited into your Tbg Haji accounts every month as the payment yah... :)
Anyway, this weekend all ISD staff will be going to Eco-Dusun Resort in Bentong for Outbounce training. Everyone is not looking forward to this trip... especially the ladies. Heard that among the activities during the training will be jungle trekking, flying fox and may be repelling. It doesn't sounds that bad... only the thought of 'pacat' on our bodies is really grosssss...!!!!

Called home... yeap... hubby managed to find time to pick up my girl from tadika for her dentist apointment with Dr Rozita. Asked my girl about her experience at the dentist, and she proudly told me 'tak sakit pun... kejap je!'. Hmph.... that's my girl!! :) Can't wait to see her 'new look' after losing her first 'gigi susu'.... :)
I met Kak Na at Kumon Centre while waiting for Izzaty attending her class. It's really interesting to be able to meet or hear about our old friends after all these years. She looks contented having 4 boys and working with the Ministry of Defense... which reminds me.. when am I to add another member in my family??? Hmph! ;P

My daughter has a loose tooth! At first I thought the tooth got loose due to her habit of eating and sucking sweets but yesterday we realised that there was a new tooth coming out behind the loose tooth.
I was suppose to meet Dr Fahmi tomorrow for a laproscopy appointment... but it had to be cancelled as my hubby is not free. I wonder if I'd set another date to replace this appointment. I am not really keen on the 'laproscopy' thingy... may be I'd just forget it for good?? Hmphh... I wonder.. What dya think?

I had such a hectic weekend. Our first aerobic class was fun!! It was so exciting for us as none of us has ever joined any aerobic class before... at least not for the past 3 years I guess. Went home right after aerobic to get ready for my neighbour's tazkirah gathering.
Adam's birthday party was on Saturday. We were a bit late as I kinda lost track of time and the traffic was not helping at all... but the kids had such a great time at the party! Zaty had a great time in the pool though she doesn't know how to swim ( I think I must consider sending her to a swimming class ).
Went shopping at Giant Shah Alam right after the party... and spent more than RM200 without realizing it... sheeshh!! I must start controlling my money flow for this NZ trip... hmphh!!
The good news is... hubby is back!! yeayyy!!!! I got a brand new watch from Japan... double yeay!!! Though it's not a branded one... nevertheless.. it's still the thought that count! I love you hubby... :):)

Tonight, there will be a tazkhirah organized by my neighbour... I'm sure I'll be damn tired.. esp after the aerobic class.. nevertheless I must get myself to go.. I really like my new neighbourhood. They are much more Islamic and I hope that will help me to be a better muslimah.. it's good to know that I can bring up my kids in a good neighbourhood... and hopefully I'll manage to teach them to be 'anak2 soleh and solehah'. Aamin...
What a boring day! Went to Network with some colleage. Bought a pair of track-bottom especially for the coming out-bound course that we had to attend in Banting, Pahang.
Today I'll be attending our first aerobick class. Hopefully I'll manage to lose some weight and may be I'd look better for the coming trip to NZ... heehee! :) Husband will come back tomorrow night from Japan.. yeahaaa!!! Wonder if there would be any souvenir for me... or just for the kids?? Hmphh..
