Herm???

Arghhhh!!!

Aku sungguh bosan. Bosan yang teramat bosan, tahap dewa dah.

Dan sesungguhnya aku teramatlah "kemalasan." hee..hee..hee...

If aku ada mood, then I will update.

My Kuching Trip

Yuhuuuu... I'm back. hee..hee..hee..

Ialah, aku jarang dah update blog aku ni sebab aku selalu menghilang.

Oh ya! I'm going to Kuching on 10th July until 13th July 2009 aritu. Suppose to attend Rainforest World Music Festival. But then due to H1N1, we decided not to attend. Walaupun takde apa2 tapi prevention is better than cure. Betul tak? So, pendamkanlah saja niat nak tengok orang main sape. huhuhu No worries, next time masih ada lagi.

However, since we bought our flight ticket & hotel, both myself & my friend, Suhana decided to ronda-ronda at Kuching. Lucky us because her friend dengan murah hatinya meminjamkan kereta kancilnya for us. Yeehaaa... so apa lagi, pengembaraan bermulalah.

We landed at Kuching International Aiport around 9:00pm. Then terus pergi rumah her friend at Matang Avenue nak ambik kereta. And thanks again to her other friend yang sudi ambik kita orang kat airport. When we reached at her friend's house at Matang, huhahuha here and there we reached hotel almost midnight. hee..heee..

On our first day in Kuching, of course must try their kolok mee at Satok. Then we pergi Serikin. Wah!!! bermacam-macam ada. Tak tahu nak beli apa. So, saya beli bekas crystal brand Soga, kain baju kurung, souveniers for friends, kain batik lepas. Memang murah giler lah barang kat situ. Ramai jugak pelancong dari Semenanjung on that day. Ha! dia orang pun borong sakan.

Then, balik dari Serikin we decided to jalan2 kat Waterfront Kuching. Chewah ! teringat dulu2 selalu lepak dengan kawan-kawan masa still study kat ITM. Banyak kenangan tu, salah satunya, aku terserempak ngan my bf with another girl. cis cis cis! tapi aku buat slumber jer, dia yang mengelabah. haa..haa.. eh! melalutlah pulak.

Bestlah jalan-jalan kat Waterfront ni. Tapi sedih jugak ada bangunan bersejarah kat tepi tebingan sungai Kuching dah dirobohkan. Anyway, memandangkan kita orang jalan punya jalan sekali tengok dah sampai kat Indian Street. Teruslah aku pergi cari kain batik motif orang ulu. Nasib baik ada yang berkenan. So, belilah untuk Mr. Hubby. Bolehlah nanti Mr. Hubby buat jadi baju kemeja batik sure cantik punyalah sebab design Sarawak. Everytime ada function asyik2 pakai motif baju batik biasa aku pun bosan tengok. haa..haa..haaa...

Lepas tu, kita orang pergilah pasar minggu kat Satok. Wah! kat sini pun best jugak. Souveniers pun murah-murah.

Hari kedua di Kuching, we all breakfast at Madam Tang's. Kalau tak silap somewhere di Padungan. We ordered laksa Sarawak. Then, Suhana ajak pergi kilang pasu. Katanya nak membeli perhiasan untuk rumah kat Labuan. I'm not decided to buy tapi, when I reached there? wah!!!! murahnya! so, dengan aku sekalilah beli pasu sarawak jugak. Way to cheap compare kat Bintulu. Ialah kat Bintulu mana ada kilang aku rasa semua ambik kat Kuching.

Aku belilah pasu perhiasan for our house in KL dan pasu yang kecik-kecik boleh buat souvenier untuk kawan-kawan kat KL nanti. Aktiviti selepas itu, free and easy. Anyway, sempat jugaklah kita ke seberang. Ingatkan nak naik perahu tambang.h ee..hee.. Tapi Suhana cakap driving jer lagi bagus. Sempat jugaklah pegi tengok DUN baru ngan lebih dekat. Ialah, the day before tengok dari seberang jer. haa..haa..haaa Balik dari seberang we went back to hotel and park our car. Then, terus jalan kaki pergi Top Spot. Katanya nak having our dinner kat situ. Wah! ni lagi satu tempat makan yang sedap dan murah. Bila aku kata murah, memang betul-betul murahlah tu.

While having dinner sempat lagi kita orang fikir, why don't we watch movie? Tengok Transformer ke? tak kisahlah lambat asal jer dah tengok betul tak? So, we jalan kaki pegi tengok wayang. By the way, Top Spot to our hotel only 5 minutes walk. And cinema pun 5 minutes walk from our hotel. Convenient kan?

Nasib baiklah ada cerita Transformer at 10:30pm (kita orang reach cineplex at 9:45 macam tu). Sempat jugaklah snap here snap there. hee..hee.. The next day kita orang having breakfast kat Satok. Sepatutnya meet my friend over there, rupanya kawan aku ni salah dengarlah pulak. Dia pergi tunggu tempat lain, kita orang kat tempat lain. lawak sungguh. Nasib baik akhirnya dapat jumpa. Yes, she's my coursemate di ITM dulu. I think more than 10 years tak jumpa after graduate. So, bila jumpa dunia kami yang punya. Lama giler we all borak sekali tengok dah 11:30am. Imagine my friend masuk office kejap jer pagi tu. kuang kuang kuang.

After we say good bye, kita orang pergilah memborong ikan terubuk masin for our colleagues. Then pergi window shopping kat tHe Spring. Balik dari tHe Spring singgah lagi kat Saujana nak minum White Lady. Sepanjang tiga hari kat Kuching, hari-hari kita orang bedal White Lady. Nak tahu White Lady tu apa? tengoklah kat my facebook yer.

Lepas tu hantar kereta yang telah dipinjamkan. Takkan nak bawak balit kot, mana muat. haa..haa.. Memang seronoklah trip ke Kuching ni, walaupun penat tapi best. Oh ya! both of our husband izinkan kita berdua pergi bercuti. Jangan fikir Mr. Hubby kat KL, aku sesuka hati jer jalan here and there kat sini. No way! Before I bought my flight ticket (few months ago) I asked permission from Mr. Hubby. Lagipun Mr. Hubby kenal my friend, Suhana. Husband Suhana pun kenal both of us. And lagi satu, jangan musnahkan kepercayaan yang suami kita dah beri kat kita. Am I right?

Anyway, here's some pictures masa kat Kuching aritu. More pictures kat FB. Malas nak edit kat sini sebenarnya. (",)

Bye Bye

Prayer for the Sick

Merciful God,
we remember before you all who are sick this day.
Give them courage to live with their disease.
Help them to face and overcome their fears.
Be with them when they are alone or rejected.
Comfort them when they are discouraged.
And touch them with your healing Spirit that they may find and possess eternal life, now and forever.
Bless, too, those who take care of the sick.
In their own time of need, bestow on them a hundredfold the blessings they have given to others.

Amen.

Jenn, I hope your dad is in a good condition. My prayer always with you and your family.

Jalan-Jalan

As promised, here's some of my pictures during my trip to Langkawi. After 10 years, akhirnya aku menjejakkan kaki ku ke sini semula. hee..hee..hee...

Oh ya! This is our 2nd honeymoon. hee..hee..hee..hee.. Our first honeymoon to PD were sponsored by Mr. Hubby's students. And since we are still in our "love life" I asked Mr. Hubby if we can go somewhere else for my June's trip to KL. And lucky us, when I'm checking MAS website, whoa!!!! the air fare was way to cheap for returns ticket. The price? Less than RM200 for 2 of us.

Sempat juak.

OKlah, that's all for now. Lot of pictures actually. But, I'm too lazy to edit. hee..hee.hee..

If ada rezeki memang ingin datang ke Langkawi. Maybe next time.

New toy

And i'm so happy, so very happy (nyanyi) laa..laa..laa...

Ingat lagi tak, few months ago I write down my wishlist for 2009? Adalah aku tulis tapi i'm too lazy nak link kat sini. But for sure, my online friend, Sha yang tag masa tu.

And tak sangka I manage to bought my mini lappy during my recent trip to KL last week. Well, at my wishlist dulu tu, I plan to buy Mini Acer Aspire One. But then, I do some research and jugak mendapatkan pandangan dari orang-orang berkenaan yang tahu about mini lappy ni. And finally I decided to get Lenovo Ideapad S10-2.

Why I want to get the small one? Ialah, the reason for me to get mini lappy so that it will be easier for me if nak travel ke KL every month, simpan jer dalam sling bag pun tak berat. hee..hee..hee.. Nak beli besar2 bukan aku buat kerja bawak balik rumah pun? Betul tak? (",)

My new toy.

Cute kan?

By the way, I'm not showing off yer. Sekadar ingin memberitahu jer. hee..hee..he.. Lagipun ini hasil titik peluh sendiri tak meminta dari orang lain. Even aku tak minta pun duit Mr. Hubby. I bought it by my own money. I don't want to bother Mr. Hubby dengan my own keinginan. If I want something, I try to get it by myself, tak meminta-minta pun. Even if I "mengidam" with branded handbag I will get it by myself. That why lah I selalu kena marah marah-marah sayang jer tu ngan Mr. Hubby. He asked me why I need all those handbags? haa..haa..haaa

And lagi satu, before Mr. Hubby balik bercuti aritu I did asked him to buy for me a new camera. And saya sangat-sangatlah berterima kasih ngan Cik Wawa sebab sudi menemankan Mr. Hubby cari kat Low Yat. And sekali lagi yer, camera tu pun saya beli hasil duit titik peluh saya sendiri. Walaupun mahal tapi memang berbaloi. However, I asked Mr. Hubby to keep my camera with him. And I asked him to learn teknik-teknik ambik gambar. Besides, aku ni pun jarang nak jalan-jalan ambik gambar unless pergi ke KL jer.

Memang puas hati dan sungguh berbaloi bila mengeluarkan duit sendiri. Betul tak?

p/s: Gambar Langkawi esok lusa akan di post kat sini. (",)

The Crocheted Tablecloth

beautiful story...... makes you understand that things happen for a reason .


The brand new pastor and his wife, newly assigned to their first ministry, to reopen a church in suburban Brooklyn, arrived in early October excited about their opportunities. When they saw their church, it was very run down and needed much work. They set a goal to have everything
done in time to have their first service on Christmas Eve.


They worked hard, repairing pews, plastering walls, painting, etc., and on December 18 were ahead of schedule and just about finished. On December 19 a terrible tempest - a driving rainstorm hit the area and lasted for two days..


On the 21st, the pastor went over to the church. His heart sank when he saw that the roof had leaked, causing a large area of plaster about 20 feet by 8 feet to fall off the front wall of the sanctuary just behind the pulpit, beginning about head high.


The pastor cleaned up the mess on the floor, and not knowing what else to do but postpone the Christmas Eve service, headed home. On the way he noticed that a local business was having a flea market type sale for charity so he stopped in. One of the items was a beautiful, handmade, ivory colored, crocheted tablecloth with exquisite work, fine colors and a Cross embroidered
right in the center. It was just the right size to cover up the hole in the front wall. He bought it and headed back to the church.


By this time it had started to snow. An older woman running from the opposite direction was trying to catch the bus... She missed it.... The pastor invited her to wait in the warm church for
the next bus 45 minutes later.


She sat in a pew and paid no attention to the pastor while he got a ladder, hangers, etc., to put up the tablecloth as a wall tapestry. The pastor could hardly believe how beautiful it looked and it covered up the entire problem area.


Then he noticed the woman walking down the center aisle. Her face was like a sheet... 'Pastor,' she asked, 'where did you get that tablecloth?' The pastor explained. The woman asked him to check the lower right corner to see if the initials, 'EBG' were crocheted into it there. They were. These were the initials of the woman, and she had made this tablecloth 35 years before, in Austria .

The woman could hardly believe it as the pastor told how he had just gotten the Tablecloth. The woman explained that before the war she and her husband were well-to-do people in Austria .
When the Nazis came, she was forced to leave. Her husband was going to follow her the next week. He was captured, sent to prison and never saw her husband or her home again.


The pastor wanted to give her the tablecloth, but she made the pastor keep it for the church.
The pastor insisted on driving her home, that was the least he could do... She lived on the other side of Staten Island and was only in Brooklyn for the day for a housecleaning job.


What a wonderful service they had on Christmas Eve. The church was almost full. The music and the spirit were great. At the end of the service, the pastor and his wife greeted everyone at the door and many said that they would return. One older man, whom the pastor recognized from the neighborhood continued to sit in one of the pews and stare, and the pastor wondered why he wasn't leaving.


The man asked him where he got the tablecloth on the front wall because it was identical to one that his wife had made years ago when they lived in Austria before the war and how could there be two tablecloths so much alike.


He told the pastor how the Nazis came, how he forced his wife to flee for her safety and he was supposed to follow her, but he was arrested and put in a prison... He never saw his wife or his
home again all the 35 years in between.


The pastor asked him if he would allow him to take him for a little ride. They drove to Staten Island and to the same house where the pastor had taken the woman three days earlier.


He helped the man climb the three flights of stairs to the woman's apartment, knocked on the door and he saw the greatest Christmas reunion he could ever imagine.


True story - submitted by Pastor Rob Reid

Who says God does not work in mysterious ways....
I asked the Lord to bless you as I prayed for you today, to guide you and protect you as you go along your way. His love is always with you, His promises are true, and when we give Him all our cares you know He will see us through.

So when the road you're traveling on seems difficult at best....
Just remember I'm here praying and God will do the rest.

I'm back

saya sudah kembali bekerja. huhuhuhuhu

And I enjoy my trip to Langkawi very much. Nanti-nantilah saya update. Sekarang tengah "menyibukkan diri."
