good planning

sebagai hamba abdi yang saya menurut perintah a.k.a prp..so mana ada orang kesah sapa nak kawin kena wat extended or weekend ke apekah..so, ended up this weekend i have to work on saturday from 5 to 12 am and mr dimple has to work on sunday from 8 am to 2pm..so kena la pandai use up any spare time yang ada..so today started searching for our house's utilities and some other important stuff than tgk jam got extra time so went to hunt for our sepatu..and rempit back to kuala pilah coz i gotta start work at 5!!lakeli mr dimple terrorist in rempit-ing!huh!

all in all...with all the requirements and research and work stuff, i have not felt any kind of nervousness yet even though its less than 3 weeks away..hahahaha!

okay, back to work and all the best to me and any brides to be out there!

long journey.

last friday after work, zaem, sayangku aini and me headed to kelantan!!weehhooo!!

the last time i went back to kelantan was more than 10 years ago.

after many pit stops we departed from gombak at around 10.30 pm. our main tujuan was to attend nini's wedding.

so reached kota bharu at 8 am on saturday, got ourself ready and off we went to rantau panjang.th ewedding lasted the whole day and by the time everything was settled (zaem was the official photographer), it was 6-ish.

then, we went to visit zaem's aunty and grandmom. buruk gila perangai kalau datang jauh2 tak go and see them.

after maghrib prayers and lepaking for a while off we went to zaem's uncle's boutique to rent our baju for the kelantan's side.

i was basically too tired to think of the color that was nice and the color of the pelamin or the color of the hantaran or how the hantaran would like..hahaha!!so..i allowed zaem's aunty to decide the best!but we decided the color and the basic details eventually.

so, checklist as of till today:

baju both side: done
pelamin his side: done
hantaran both side:done
mak andam:found and booked!yeay!thanks mama!
veil:one done, one pending
shoes:pending
stuff for house:pending

and the cards!!!...aiyoooo..!!must start posting 'em by next week at least..was supposed to send them this week..but i left the cards in zaem's card and that mr dimple is too busy..pity him...so next week it is..

1 month 1 week 6 days to go...im praying hard that everything will go smoothly..ameeenn...

time and jealousy

today we have planned to send by hand some of the cards..i might be kinda early but next week on the 12th ill be in kelantan for nini's wedding and some other wedding related stuff to settle.

on the 19th, zaem wouldnt be around coz he'll be back in kelantan yet again for hazim's wedding.

on the 26th or on the 1st of april i need to go back to kedah to settle few more unsettled stuffs..

then, in mid april ill be starting my clinicals..(read:busy, case clerking 24-7)..thus, this week and on the 26th seems like the only weekends im free..

we cant possibly finish sending all the cards by today, cant we..?

i cant remember the last time we went for a real date, watching movies and stuff..since both of us are working..weekends are the only time we can settle our wedding details..and weekends are too short!!*sighs*

with Allah's will, i hope everything runs smoothly..

miss busywoman.

berhabuk teramat sgt this blog..very tak terurus..forgive ur royal highness of no country for being such a busywoman. all the free time that i have is either being used to do assiggnments, presentations, night calls or preparing for our wedding.YES~~u read it right..the prince and princess of nowhere land are getting hitched.ive even added a wedding ticker and yes..2 months 4 days to go..

some asked..."weyh..ko senyap2 je ek..tetibe nk kawin.." OR "weyh min!!bila ko tunang!!!"

the answer is no..we decided that we would not get engage.my dad even asked me if i wanted to have an engagement ceremony.i told him.."min nak selesaikan yang wajib saja.."...and so i decided to tak bertunang for the reasons below:

A)its an adat and it isnt a MUST to engage for me to get married.
B) tunang is actually an agreement between two persons.if the couple has agreed to get married, that is also considered as tunang.the ceremony that we Malaysians have are just part of the culture. a mean to announce that their child has been booked.dont believe what i just said??then watch this:you tube ustaz azhar idrus on tunang.
C)i would rather save the few thousands that is spent on the engagement ceremony for the wedding or post wedding needs. (ie, our house, our utility bills, our needs and wants..heee)

and both parents agreed that it is not necessary so we started with all the preparations around 4 months back.

and i did not announce it earlier because i felt that it is too early.lots of things could and might happen. and i am too busy to think bout bloogging.so since we have received our wedding cards today, i felt that it is a suitable time to blog about it.=)

most of the stuff are done.

• cards: done
• dresses: sent to tailor
• doorgifts:done
• hantaran: booked
• venue: booked
• VIP's door gifts: done
• henna: my aunty bought it from Mecca. (love u aunty!!)
• HIV test: done
• borang nikah: done
  

some of the things that are still pending are:

• shoes
• veil
• flower bouquet
  
• hand bouquet

and some post wedding stuffs...but so far our weekend are filled with preparation stuff.hence the lack of time to blog.mr dimple even commented.."what happened to ur blog..dulu bukan main..tak sempat nk baca dh update yang lain..now??"..huhu pls forgive me,yours truly the busywoman.

i hope and pray that all the preparation will run smoothly and InsyaAllah ill update with the latest preparations as much as i can.

pray for me yeah..=)

and psst: ur prince and princess of nowhere land are getting hitched on the same day as Prince William and Kate Middleton.woot2!

3 and a half week.

pejam celik,pejam celik its almost a month that ive start working..will start working in IPD in a week's time.was attched to methadone clinic today.60 patient with 60 different attitudes.1 patient who is just a step away to being another success in the program.he's trying his best to control the urge himself.another sighs because its been 3 years and he is still in the program but yearns so much to be successful too.another looked uncoordinated to not even bother if he fails or gets to the finishing line.the worst part is 90% of the patient are malay male.

with them i was taught to be friendly but strict.unlike the patients in OPD where u can be friendly and helpful..here they are able to make a fool out of you if you are not careful.tersilap langkah mmg padah la jawabnya..tersilap cakap they will mengamok..patience2...

on another note,all the PPF are on holiday so the PRP are left on their own.tired is an understatement.but its all worth it when the patient look happy and could still make jokes with you.its all worth it when the patient enquires about the drug and u try ur best to help them and counsel them.well,its also worth it when i receive the paycheck too but that's a long way from here for now.

will have to head to the hospital this sunday.nope, not for extended hours or weekend oncall but to help the staff to cook for jamuan raya which is on monday.we are also assigned to decorate our department's booth.creativity please come to me in my dreams tonite..

till then,have a happy and blessed syawal peeps!!

one and half week.

reported for duty on the 25th of august.tot of asking for a day off so that i could settle off with house hunting but my wish was not granted.so,after lunch i started work in hosp tuanku ampuan najihah (htan), kuala pilah.the first half day was aint bad because we had a counselling session where the seniors taought us how to counsel on novopen and MDI.

work was fine but the house hunting was bad. the first house that i shared with my housemate, a lab technician from the same hospital was so creepy that it lokked like a ghost house from the outside.no,im not kidding you.so, my parents went for house hunting while i went to work.they found me a flat with 3 rooms which only cost me rm320.kinda cheap considering a smaler house in shah alam would cost us rm600.

im attached in opd until the end of the month.first task was labelling.manually.then it was filling.luckily the opd wasnt so big and it took us a day or two to get used to where the meds are.so this week was changed to screening and dispensing.

all these tasks seems hard at first.mistakes made are abundance.being tegur here and there.but the seniors and frp are always there to guide you.my opd boss would always say "its better to ask a hundred times when u are uncertain about something rather than making mistakes and jeopardizing the patient's life"...the first time i started dispensing the senior prp was there to guide me in case there are points that i forgot to state.after a few times u get used to it and u r on ur own.htan is a secondary hospital so the peak hours are around 9 till noon.in the evening is when we are taught to do different tasks or there are presentations by the senior prps..

owh yes and got to handle DD too..nervousness when recording in the log book.more nervous when 500 tablets of lorazepam went mysteriously missing.had to stay back till 5.40 just to figure out where did the tablets got to..found out that someone did some mistakes during the check and found recording in the log book.at the end of the day, we found the 500 missing tablets.hehehe.fuhh!

all in all, the first and half week was very tiring but i definitely gained a lot from it.to those who will be starting soon, practise standing for at least 2 hours without sitting and maybe u would be less tired than i am.hehe.

gardener needed

just finished helping my dad maw the law. ive only helped him maw the lawn twice during this 2 months break but those two times is enuff to let me know that mowing the lawn is not an easy thing to do.

i helped him today is because ill be leaving to negeri sembilan soon and with his knee giving him problems i tot i would spare him the effort to give the lawn a trim for the next 3 weeks or so..

but, the fact is i think what he really need now is a gardener.just to maw the lawn.he is able to water the plants..owh and maybe help my dad trim the plants every month.

we used to have a gardener when the house was rented a few years back but when we moved in my parents did all the gardening.(yes, they have green hands)..but now that they are getting aches all over i think its best to get the help again isnt it..?


misteri-mencari-gardener is on!!

till then..take care all!

its time

mr dimples has kindly helped me collect my KKm letter in putrajaya.

when i told my mum that the earliest we can 'turn ourselves in' a.k.a lapor diri is next week,my mum looked disturbed.

i have this strong feeling that she's not yet ready to let me go off.

to let me go into someone else's territory and start a new chapter of my life.

ill be sad too but sooner or later ill have to leave this place called home.

which is worst?to let ur youngest daughter go off and work and earn her own living OR having a child in the house without a job and expects to be spoonfed always.

in my opinion, the latter is more worrying...

mum,ill come back to visit as much as i can.so,its time ma...=(

till then,selamat berbuka.

alhamdulillah.

alhamdulillah that ive live long enuff to meet Ramadhan again.

alhamdulillah im healthy to perform my prayers.

alhamdulillah im training myself not to miss the terawih.

alhamdulillah our family is blessed with enuff food for berbuka and sahur.

alhamdulillah my parents are still around for me to spend this Ramadhan with them.

and alhamdulillah ill soon start my own career and earn my own money and may i start my own life with HIS guidance.amin.


p/s:read my fren's blog saying that "ramadhan is similar with all the other months except for the fact that eating and drinking are not allowed during the day"...well my fren,during this month that if u work hard enuff there is a world of benefits waiting for u..and if u miss this,you'll have to pray hard that u live long enuff to meet the next Ramadhan...

till then.take care!and enjoy the benefits of this Ramadhan.

different in our own...

ive just finished reading my fren's blog.the whole thing and mind you the 1st entry was waaayyy back in 2007.so yeah 3 years of entries and it took me almost 6 hours to finish it all.

the truth is, i dont do it to all the blogs that i follow.nope.even though the jobless-free-me has nothing to do but not all blogs capture my attention.

i tend to be attracted to blogs that share the bits and bouts of their life. to read what they go through, the puddles of mud that they had to endure, the silly things that they do, those are the entries that make me feel that im as normal as u and u and u next to u..

for example:

kak mel telling that she accidentally woke up late and felt so bad coz tak sempat to make breakfast for her husband.well, i may not have a husband now but when i do start a family at least amidst of all the guilt in me, at the back of my head,ill remember that these things happen and all ive gotta do is try harder.

my friend telling that when she went for driving lessons and she thought people were staring at her because they felt she was pretty but it turns out that she has a japanese flag on the back of her jeans (girls, u would know what i mean)...reminder that when that happens quickly go to the toilet and check if there's anything wrong on you..

well, there are those who blog to earn maney and join the various competitions available in the blogging world..no, im not against any of u who are doing that.u are earning more money that i do-yes, u may clap for urself now.but, i would usually skip entries with the title of "blogger of the year award goes to.."...if u know what i mean..its a democratic country and u may do what u want and i shall not stop you.im happy, u r happy.

but, what makes me happier is when i read blogs that have out-of-ordinary vocabs in their entries.vocabs that u would need to google up the word to know how to pronounce it.let me give u a list of examples.and i f u know the meaning and pronounciation and the synonyms to all of the words,you have earned a virtual standing ovation from me.mind you, without google-ing the answers of course.farah D,if u r reading this i know u know all the answers by heart.so, u cant participate. so here it goes:

1.apathy
2.predilection
3.poignant
4.profanity
5.afficionado
6.enceinte
7.avoirdupois
8.querulous
9.amalgam
10.effete

and yes they are all english words and i build the list from my friend's blog.there's even more but i was too lazy to type into my phone while reading it.she even made a-word-a-day thing-ing in her entries.so, now i dont have to go to the book store to get a new book to brushen up my vocab,i can do it online.woot2!!ill keep this post and test my childern someday (when i have one that is)..haha!very ambitious and pandang ke hadapan.

if u r wondering, i made that list because i dont know the words.if i knew, that would defeat the purpose, wouldnt it?

till then.xoxo.

mari beribadat!!

tonite after maghrib,it'll be nisfu syaaban.

mama n me are fasting today and upon arriving home after shopping alone (sounds so sad kan?) at tesco, mama ajak-ed me to go to one of her fren's house tonite becoz they'll be having solat sunat berjemaah and bacaan yassin.

but,but mama said.."kita bukak puasa then cepat2 kena p rumah aunty tu okayy...pkoi 12 tgh malam baru balik"..huh??mama ni nak ajak tp bg statement which is making me lazy.but no!!all this laziness are syaiton's whispering in my ear!no syaiton!i refuse to listen to u!

so, yes!!let's go and beribadat tonite!mari!!and yes mama,min tak malas sebab masa mrsm dulu pon dah biasa. (mrsm was my least favorite skool but it helped shaped me into a better person too i.e wearing tudung permanently)

gotta go and iron the best baju kurung becos the aunties2 in my housing area neh very high fashion..hahaha..u must be thinking, ni nak g beribadat ke nak tayang handbag sapa paling up to date??no2,even if i wear the nicest and prettiest baju kurung it'll still be covered with the telekung so,no big deal.

bye2..and have a nice day peeps!selamat beribadat rakan2..

wishes.

yesterday was my birthday!!!weee!n im officially 23.

the surprises came a day earlier.mr dimples never fail to surprise me every year.either it was with the cooperation with my housemates or friends staying nearby.

so,on wednesday i called him up and he said he's going to the post office because he wants to mail me my official transcript and the other documents.he helped me hand in all the needed documents in putrajaya.thank you and may Allah bless u,mr dimples.later that evening, i asked him about the documents, he told that he didnt get the chance to mail me earlier that day because he went with his bike and didnt bring the docs along...told me he'll mail it next week when he's back in KB.so, i didnt make such a big deal because i just wanted to file the docs. later that night,my friend amir called me and asked me if i was free the next day because he wants to take me and a few frens out for lunch.so, of course i am free (Duhh!) and we made plans to meet up the next day at around 3.i ajak azeila so that im not the only girl there.ive suspected something but this isnt the first time i went out with him so i went along.

so, when azeila and me arrived at KFC, i wanted to order but amir proudly told me that he bought a whole bucket for the four of us including khairol.and when we were seated, kerol brought to the table a box of cake and i started luffing..!!!amir asked me to guess whose idea was this and it must be non other than my mr dimples!!!when i kolled him up he was still pretending as if he did not know anything!!!urgghh!!apparently, he transferred money to amir to buy the cake and pay for the meal.kinda sad becoz he couldnt make it to celebrate with me but the surprise was good enuff.

i had fun meeting up with them and that surprise was nice..and did i mention when i was getting ready to go out, the postman came and delivered a parcel.mr dimples sent the parcel with all the documents and in between it all was a birthday card!!when i kolled him all he did was giggle!!and yeah of course he pretended to be clueless bout the parcel for about a minute or two.

i received my birthday present which is a bag a day earlier.it was a gift from him.thank you, you!

so,since im 23, im not gonna attempt to make a list of 23 random things about me or my wishlists.

but,ill pray hard that:

1. ill be a better muslimah.

2. ill be a better member to my family and good health to all our family members

3.ill be a responsible and proactive pharmacist

4.all our urusan dipermudahkan n dimurahkan rezeki.

other than that, lets just keep it a secret between me and HIM

p/s:i would love to own a coach handbag or the other fancy stuff but there's only so much a successful jobless (at the moment) person like me can ask for *giggles*

till then,take care and have a great weekend peeps!

onemalaysia.

my definition of one malaysia as in today:

a plate of mee goreng mamak (indian origin) eaten with a pair of chopsticks (chinese origin) by me (malay of course)

parent's story.

today's entry berkisarkan cerita2 about my parents.i know n im certain they will not read this.but if they do, i dont mind.

story number 1:

mama helped me renew my driving license last week.since she had to go n settle some bills at the post office so she came back with multiple receipts in her bag.then, she proudly called me and hand me the license.i checked and looked at her.."ma, ni lesen yang lama..its still 2010.."...she said.."cuba cek betoi2..kalut la min ni"....i hand her reading glasses and showed her...then she panicked for a second and started rummaging through her bag and wallet..and she said "mesti mama tertinggal atas kaunter.*sighs*..but i dont mind coz i dont do much drivving at home.almost non at all.so, this week she had to go to JPJ so she settled it and its as if she renewed it again.so, instead of renewing it for another 1 year, my license has been renewed for 2 years..yeayyy!!!then today, she was cleaning up her purse and taaaadaaaa!!she found the license that was renewed last week that she assumed she left ot on the counter...hahaha!!bad news for her, good new for me.

p/s:if u r wondering y my mom is doing all the renewing stuff for me is bcoz she gets annoyed to wait for me bcoz i wake up late and to avoid from getting any more wrinkles she'd rather ajak my dad then me.hehehe!talk about anak bongsu yang manja..but mind u,i help out with stuff at home while she's out.so, when she's back she has less chores to do.

story number 2:

i dont have much activity at home besides disturbing my parents.so, as i was walking into my parent's room my dad asked me to massage his legs.while i was massaging it, i took the advantage to nag at him.he's 64 dis year but he's still busy with his golf.he goes out early in the morning and comes back around 12.if the golf course is further, than expect him to be back by 2.and he's complaining that his calf is sore and his kness is swollen..??okay, so he do not go everyday but still he should at least cut down on the game a lil..and the bones are not getting any stronger.so, massaging-cum-nagging do not seem fun for him and he said.."adui...pelan2 la..dah la berletiaq!!"..hahaha!while i was nagging at him, i didnt realise that i was squeezing his calf..hahaha..my mum was just luffing away..

the end.till then..salam 1 malaysia *ahaks*

stop.

since the past 2 weeks ive been online shopping.

not good to the power of 2.

online shopping while chatting with mr dimple's sister makes it worse.hahaha

extra stimulant to buy when i ask her opinion on the things i want to buy and she says its pretty!!hahaha.

the only expression mr dimples can say when i told him im online shopping with his sister was "oh..no!"....*giggles*

although im kinda nervous plus lazy to start working and all, but its better than doing nothing at home other than wasting my money online.*sighs*

but the things online are much cheaper and its one of the reasons i shop there. *wink2* (alasan!hehe!)

starve.

i havent eaten since morning.

during lunch i was feeling nauseated and bloated and had very2 uncomfortable tummy.

BUT, NOW...im sooo starving i can eat a whole cow.

going to help mama finish the lunch dishes now.

byeee...

idle.

no more in idle mood today.

so, mama drove me to the klinik kesihatan for my medical checkup.

first, go n daftar n then go straight to kaunter pemeriksaan kesihatan to fill up few forms and asked me to get my urine sample.

then go 4 the pemeriksaan mata and gigi, and...done!

not so...must go again on the 27th for x ray and to see the pegawai perubatan.

asked the person in charge if can do it in private clinics, he said usually it is done in gov clinics.

then..dat's it for today.

oh yeah..also went to post surat terima lantikan to SPA oredi.

and dats ol for today.

thanks to mr dimples for going to shah alam and pressuring the people in pejabat konvo to get my transcript. azilea sent my borang more than 2 weeks ago but i did not receive it.apparently, they mislook my borang and it hasnt been process yet.*sighs*.but all is good now and zaem has got his SPA offer letter too.yeay!!alhamdulillah.

my prayers to HIM for the past 1 week or so is to permudahkan all our urusan and it seems that my prayers have been granted.alhamdulillah.

bits and pieces.

so the world cup is over.and paul was right again.holland did not show a good sportmanship.i mean really..u are in the finals of the biggest event in football and ol u can do is play and fight on the field..come on..i did not stay up to see players figthing with each other nor with the referree.

so, im not a football addict.i dont watch EPL and know the names of ol the players at the back of my head.but when it comes to world cup, i make it a point to watch becoz somehow it clashes with my holidays and thats one way of spending some quality time with my dad.and sometime with my mom too.mind you, when we didnt have astro way back then,the three of us used to go out to the mamak to watch the games.

last saturday a close family friend came to stay over at our house.their youngest daughter came along and it felt good to have a friend at home to hang out with.(it gets really b.o.o.ring at times being the youngest in the family and not having anyone else around). we went to tanjung dawai for dinner.all in all the food was not bad.and the restaurant had a good view.so, went home feeling totally full and bloated and due to that i couldnt go to bed early and stayed up till around 1 am and whats the point to go to bed when ill wake up again at 2.30 am to watch the match..so i was on9 to kill some time b4 the match.then the match started and the game was awfully boring during the first half with the uncountable yellow cards by the botak referree...2nd half was the same and then it went to extra time.was texting mr dimples telling him that the viewers will all be half awake by the time they enter penalty rounds..then iniesta finally scored d goal!!!my dad and i were shouting our hearts out!!!FINALLY!!a goal after the hundred and berapa minit ntah..

it felt good!!ive realised this holiday is the time that i get to spend with my parents.soon ill start working and begin my new life.a life where im demanded to stand on my very own two feet, earn my own cash and manage my finance and life independently.sometimes, i feel that they are becoming emotional knowing that the time has come for them to let me go off, working becoz im the youngest child.with my brothers and sisters, they were not this sensitive becoz at least they know im still at home with them, to accompany them. now..its just the both of them.so, im not so stressed up if the posting starts later coz i get an extra time with them.but, whatever it is..wherever im posted at, my responsibility to them remains the same..the first salary i get will be spend on them too.sometimes our parents do not demand to be given money each month but its our responsibility to do so.besides, they have spent thousands on us..our hundreds are just a small protion of it.ill always prays the best for their health and may they live long to see me off on my wedding day and kiss my children.

im getting all emotional oredi,so i guess ill end dis now.hehehe.
till then:take care!!

p/s:ive got my SPA letter but somehow im in idle mode till today.haha.gotta get moving now!

undecided.

my former high school,st george's girls school sent an invitation for the grand reunion.

i would love to go.

its one of the best schools ive attended (mind you, i had 3 high schools that i went to becoz we moved and when i was in form 4 i went to mrsm)

but sggs remains the best.it brought the best of me and i bet my friends would agree too.

the problem:the reunion is in october.

how am i supposed to know if im available to go at that time??*sighs*

where would i be at nxt month is a big question mark and october is a bigger one..

will see how la eh??

recipe book.

after reading ming siew's blog on her recipe book, it got me thinking that i should start my own recipe book.

everytime mama teaches me to cook something new i would type in my phone's notes and save it there.

guess i should start copying the recipe into a proper book now so that i can still refer to it even in 10 years time.
