*MAKAN DOSAI*

I got off school earli at 12 noon yesterday coz I had to go to Raffles Medical at Bugis for a checkup dat NIE made me go. A medical review coz I didnt “pass” da one I took 2 years ago before entering NIE. All bcoz I didnt get my menses regularly at dat time. So I went alone reaching dere at 1.30pm and wen in to see dis unfriendly female doctor. In my record, it was stated dat da doctor who checked me 2 years ago referred me to da polyclinic for further checkup but I absolutely cant remember being asked to do dat. So dis doctor kept asking me about my menses cycle within dese 2 years and even tho I told her dat everiting been back to normal since laz year, she had da nerve to say in a sarcastic tone dat I didnt even bother to go for further checkup altho my cycle wasnt regular. Eh eh dekni?! Made my blood go upstairs seh! Den she wanted me go for an ultrasound to check my ovaries for any growth I tink. Kan senang dia antar aje terus rather I lecture me on and on with her bitchy voice. Its not as if she had to pay for my checkup. *ITCH!

Well, not dat Ive neva gone for a checkup about my condition, I did. I went to dis gynae at dis B.Batok clinic. Nice male doctor. But da next time I wanted to set my 2nd appointment, da auntie at da clinic told me da doctor dissapeared because of the Tsunami. He was holidaying dere I tink. Kesian kan.. Anywae I didnt want to see anoder male doctor I wasnt familiar wif so da checkup kinda stopped dere. And thankfully not long after dat my menses went back to normal. And I didnt want to tell dat to dat *itch doctor coz I wanted her to send me for a thorough checkup wifout me having to pay for it.

My checkup was onli from 1.45 - 2.15. Jauh-jauh I travel in the hot weather, waste my time onli. Ive got to come again next Friday for my ultrasound and da rez of da checkup. Bingit seh!! Untuk meredakan my kebingitan, I went to buy som chocolate milkshake at Mac, shiok! Blood went downstairs again.

Dear picked me after dat to jalan-jalan wif his family. His family reali can walk, fortunately I was in comfy shoes, if not can die. From Geylang to Tekka to eat thosai to Tekka Mall to Mustapha Centre to at laz Adam Rd. Da thosai at Tekka is fantabulous I tell you. Geng next time I bring you all dere, we makan thosai ok. Cheap, big, long and finger smacking delicious.

Today Dear is bringing his family jalan-jalan again to Suntec City den to IMM den I dont know where. Thx veri much but Im not tagging along, my dear two feet need to rest. But I’ll meeting him later coz he’s gonna drive me to buy tings I need for next week lesson. Kan bez kalau tau drive, ni basikal pon tak pass pass!

A Little Bit of This & That… February 18, 2006

*A Little Bit of This & That…*

Okay I have not been updating for quite awhile. Was lazy and busy and heavy. Hahaha yeah I am getting heavier by da day till I got so pissed off with myself wen I was trying on clothes juz now. With me, its foreva gaining back da weight and more after panstakingly losing them. Okay okay dats so not related to aniting.

So letsa recap…

Tues, 14/02/06:
Took MC coz I was lazy and had work to finish up. I got 2 days of MC even though I bedek. Lurve my family doctor but….I muz have a pathetic face dont I?

Met up wif Dear and wat did he do?? He showed up wif a new haircut. Eeeee me so tak suka rambut botak!!! Nasib gue cinta banget sama kamu, botak atau tidak!

notice my expression??

Wed, 15/02/06:
Dear promised to take me to JB and I woke earli and got reali excited and waited for him BUT we didnt go coz he went to sleep and by da time he woke up, it was alreadi 4pm and I didnt wan to go in JB by den. But its okie Darling, I know you were tired coz you juz came back from work.

So we ended up shopping at Tekka and Mustapha. Rather I shopped and he paid. Khakhakha, its to compensate me for not bringing me into JB. I went shopping for cheap clothes. Remember I’m stingy??

da king of my life…

2nd laz of school, laz day of sitting beside Fard, sitting behind Zal and and sitting beside a wall. My usual spot, at da corner. But da laz of day of meeting some of da classmates coz som of dem did not turn for class on Friday. Dats sad isnt it, I thot of taking a class pix. Its been so so long all 20 of us actuali appeared in a photo.

my classmates like to take pixs…

2nd pose

Well, dis is during TED…

“bringing da world into the classroom”….understand?

me and sharon…we lurve each oder

Thurs nite was spent preparing for Sastera presentation. Juz our luck to spend da laz day of school doing a Sastera presentation. And I didnt sleep from Thurs morning till Fri midnite. Da morning was spend wif Zal, me on a couch in Fard’s haus wif a laptop on my lap and he, on da opposite couch, wif a laptop on his lap. 10pm to 10am, wifout rest, imagine dat. Thank God its over!

Friday, 17/06/06
Zal made me kopi dat was so pekat dat it turned me into Tigger. I couldnt stop moving and boucing, so untypically me. Rai made us breakfast, delicious, thx Rai. Fard donated to us her ink printer for 30+ pages of slides, thx very much Fard.

So yep presentation. Well, it went well, da usual, I stammer. Mainly bcoz juz 3 seconds I start talking, my mouth bcam so dry, speaking was a chore. But listening to Puan R commenting on our presentation and asking us to look at da book at a whole new different views, I was amazed and became confused and felt so dumb as to why I didnt see it from her prepective.

Laz day of skool. Laz day of eva labelling ourselves as trainee teachers. Once we complained why it took so long for dis day to come, but on Friday, we wished dat today neva coms. No more da 6 of us sitting in our usual spot in class with our usual position. No more da 6 of us writing messages on a piece of paper during class time. Im gonna miz all of you, esp yous and even dose who gets on my nerves somtimes.

After school, me and mama went to Pameran Pengantin at Expo. Expected it to be all grandeur and filled with pengantin-related booths but deres not reali many booths. My mama got pening wen I made her walk around, sit down, listen to people explain about their packages and den walk som more. But its a good ting, coz I found a pelamin and void deck deco dats within my stingy budget and pleasant to my cerewet eyes.

I also found my baju nikah. Rather my mom have found my perfect-to-her-eyes baju nikah. We went into Maniq and unexpectedly my mom fell in love wif a lacey cloth and she loves it so much dat she got it for my baju nikah. Meaning she blanja me my baju nikah 1 set, complete wif Dear’s, 2 shoes and 1 bag. Initialy we decided to do a songket baju nikah, like my mama wanted but fickle minded mama, as usual is a sucker for excellent sales people and pretty tings. Give her excellent service and she will give you her money.

Khakhkha jahat aku! Anywae thx veri much mama for da treat. Lup you veri much.

Sat, 18/02/06:
Met up wif Fard to sent 5 pieces of kain to be made into baju kurung, mini baju kurung and pant suit. First time Im sending kain to be tailored without my mama and after so many years. Cheap cloths actuali, 9.90RM each. Looks like da tailoring is gonna be more expensive den cost of da kain.

dis cute cat dat meows like SCDF siren

And I went shopping on my own for awhile at JP looking for pants, am desprate for a comfy black pants dat fits me. Anybody knows where to get nice big-sized pants? And preferably cheap? Khekhekhe.

Dear got his car today so he brought me makaning at Adam Road. Not seafood coz it’s not halal dere. I ended up eating nasi lemak. Of all da tings to eat at Adam Road. Im so bored wif da variety of halal food.

Sunday, 19/02/06:
Morning: wet market (mama & nenek buli me)
Afternoon: Accompany mama who wants to attend a chocolate making class coz she wanna do it for my benda hantaran.
Nite: Sleep earli pls

*JALAN SULTAN* February 11, 2006

*JALAN SULTAN*

Today I went rounding at Golden Landmark and Jalan Sultan all by myself to survey for da price of kain songket dat I intend to use for my baju nikah. Da first intention was to head straight to Bugis Library but my itchy itchy feet made a left turn and headed down to Jalan Sultan. Well, its kinda onli my 2nd trip dere to look at dose pretty pretty kain. Da first time I went dere and actuali purchased somting was 2 years ago for Townsville Majlis Perpisahan.

Wen a woman walks at Jalan Sultan, her eyes can go keroh okie. Its like all da kain were so pretty, so nice, so beautiful etc etc. If I didnt haf to go on a budget and safe money, I could haf spent my entire pay which I juz haf received dis morning, getting all da kain dat I want and it wouldnt haf been enuf.

And da songket is so so nice. Nasib baik expensive for a songket Terengganu. But you can get cheaper songket, dat is songket India at onli $50 for 1 suit, although it is off lower quality. But who cares, its still as nice as songket Terengganu. Im gonna get myself som of dose songket India for raya. *droolz*

Still I sent my cuzin who’s working KL to survey for da price of songket Terengganu dere. If its cheaper dere, why would I wan to pay extra and get one here? Told ya Im one cheapo woman!

K dis pixs haf got nuthin to do wif my kain fetish, juz wanna share som pixs of my TED lesson on Passion to Teach. We were made to create a masterpiece which reflected our passion to teach. Like real onli…

New movie today. Its like wen we are so damn pokai, so many movies are being shown in da cinema. 1 month ago, wen we had money to spare, dere was absolutely no good movie to watch till we spent our money on food and snacks. Tak baik kan?! Now, its like so many good movies to catch: Jarhead, Walk The Line, Match Point, Syriana, The Constant Garderner and many more to come.

Well back to ‘Casanova’ and enuf of whining. Yep, ‘Casanova’ was damn farni, altho wif a reali clever storiline. Juz a good movie if you wanna relax and haf a good laugh. Basically its about a man named Casanova played by Heath Ledger who goes around seducing women into his bed. Well, at last Casanova repented after meeting his true love and retreated to a simple life as a theater actor. Corny? Yep. Farni? Yep. Well, I enjoyed it, so will you ya.

And yipee today is pay day. Im so damn pokai after paying deposits for da wedding. Dis month is gonna be anoder more pokai month coz more deposits need to be paid, I need to get proper clothes for practicum and not forgetting materials for practicum. Money no enuf!

*MY LOVE*

Dear and me are trying out somting new . Instead of meeting everitime on da days he’s not working (he works 1 day and haf 2 days off), we gonna juz meet on his 2nd day off. So 2 days of not meeting and 1 day of rendezvous.

Nope, we are not getting sick of each other but da oder day we realised dat wen we dont meet dat often, dat perasaan rindu is dere. It kinds of make da whole dating game so exciting. And Dear will start confessing on da fone how 2 days of not meeting me makes him miss me so much and he cant wait to meet me. I wont hear all dose mushy mushy words wen we meet often. Its nice to hear a man go mushy over me khakhakha. Makes it feel like baru-baru dating dulu.

It also gifs us off time for our own activities. Dear will play tennis or badminton wif his fren and me, well me got lotsa lotsa skool to be done. Neverending….

So Im not seeing you tomoro love, but its a date on Tuesday.
