Birthday dan swimming pool

Both combinations yang sangat menarik perhatian bebudak 

kalini birthday zara. cucu kepada anak kakza (sariza)
heh mudanya dah title cucu ye. heheh nanny muda yang masih lagi jadi crew

location wise was good coz nearby pool haha. and the pool ain't the normal pool ye
it has slides, air hujan bagai and lotsa trees so redup sket and animals figures
(it was in my IG)


meantime, it also a mini SCFM gath hahahah coz yang datang byk from geng scfm je. anyway we enjoyed ourself. food was yums
Sofia the first as usual in a center of attention where everyone geram with her chunky thigh
and siap one of my friend really bite her till nangis, geram sangat katanye. lol

geng scfm

SCFM sisterhood movie day outing

and sooooooooo we're back to reality
kerja kerja sampai lebammmmmmm. kerja 3 days more and weekend again

i wish to be a SAHM la..perhaps soon? *ok cut off the daydreaming for now*

we decided to watch abam aaron and lisa by watching Suamiku, Perfect 10
ya sounds sooo poyo kan *like what my husband said when he saw i forwarded him the poster*
hahha yeah we do have our own poster for this time outing

they chose GSC at Midvalley. Gosh its been ages since my last movie. now all so canggih, purchased tickets online, to redeem just scan the bar code upon entrance and voila!
this supposed to be a mommies outing je but end up each of us brings our own toddler
its 5 moms and only najua bring over her double A girls
i doubt all of them understand about this movie hahah but who cares? as long mommies fulfilled their needs.
As expected, my HM can't even sit for 15mins. by that time, she was restless and started to kacau me.
End up she played with Iman at the side stairs. As long korang bahagia la anak

The movie? ratings 3/5
reason being : too complicated. Hanged. i can't understand the story plots
also, too much makeups for the actresses beside than Lisa. She had a natural bare face which i like


Next stop, to maaakannnnn.
we just choose Delicious at the main entrance. Kids had bit of spaces to play and make noise -__-
chit chat, eat eat, gossip here and there and its about 5pm
wah, we really had loong day at MV. crowds are everywhere which mostly are chinese as they need to shop for their upcoming CNY
i see red everywhere. but NOT red money *sigh* haha

Babies pun nak pegi spa

Assalammualaikum dunia!!
sangat suka dengar lagu Faizal Tahir tu now. love loved him

2015, starting with an entry about my pau Sofia

twas upon our jalan-jalan cari makan at Wangsa Walk recently that we find out about this Baby E Spa
Now ni, baby spa sort of a bit in lah. The good/benefits of this was :

• to introduce babies to water, as early as possible. to avoid fear of water. So ada this one mother bawa her anak  yang just 38days for this spa session.

• to let the baby to overcome the fear of water. Since they also agak bit fresh in memory of swimming in the womb, so they tend to have this natural ability of floating

• to let the baby exercise all the muscle, not only both legs but entire body

• some said after baby did this spa,  they will have a relax mind and body to rest. maybe agak sama macam adults kot after pi swimming, body a bit relax and easy to sleep

So, this spa is actually good for the babies. Lagi early we introduce them to this, it might help them to love the water.

This baby E spa that i went at Wangsa Walk just open recently, about a month back. So they were having a promotion of RM68 out of normal fee RM80+. We grab the opportunity for Sofia. Too bad HM bit older (its open to newborn - 3yo kid). 

Things to bring :

• Baby (obviously- duhh -____-)
• changing clothes and diapers

This spa session will take approx 1 hour (30 mins in the water ; 30 mins of massage)

First stage in the water 

baby will be put dalam float and water stage time tu is slow

Stage 2 - water will have a bit/mild of flows and waves

Stage 3 - water flows level will be increased into fast mode (dah macam dalam washing machine punye air yang dok pusing2 tuh) baby pun adelah terpusing skali but takdela macam dalam washing machine yg real, macam je

After habis all 3 stages, baby will be changed into their dry diapers and get massage by masseurs 

The masseurs also will teach us on some techniques on how to reduce/hilangkan kembung angin on baby and if baby ada masalah sembelit, they taught us also the massage techniques.
Such a good info for us, the parents

Once they dressed, its time for feeding them. in 10mins time, Sofia dah tido pun. Must be all the hard work during swimming time and so she fast asleep. 

so to those who are interested nak neraby this Baby E Spa pls click here for more info baby E spa

Sofia and Aila had their first spa date

The End of my 7years with MAH & MAHTEC

I started my October with last day of working at the Malaysian Association of Hotels &

Malaysian Association of Hotels Training and Education Centre (MAHTEC Sdn. Bhd)

7 YEARS oi!! the longest company i've worked with

Begin with only 2 staffs at MAHTEC and now it has become well known in the hotel industry

So many ups and downs working here. So many fond memories i've had, and all the bitter-sweet too. Arguments, crisis management, tears, laughed and almost everything i have learned here. I am proud of myself for all this experiences

I was given so many chances and experiences to travel to almost every states in Malaysia and ASEAN countries and visited so many fantastic hotels. I've met so many fabulous hoteliers who have passion in their career and in hospitality industry. That is part of the valuable moments 

But i have to decide something good for my life and career for becoming a better person

Sooner or later i have to bid farewell to my fellow colleagues who has been a good officemates. For their support, team work, gossiping sesh, punching bags moment etc

It'll always be in my thoughts!

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same. ~Flavia Weedn,

its the island hopping time

ok next update on this trip (kene update cepat coz makcik Ezany dah sibuk nak tanye itinerary. lol)

the most awaited one, island hopping (mak buyung tak sedo diri)

after breakfast we walked to the Jesselton point. inside, there's alot of counters that offers you the package. we just chose randomly counter no 2, took package trip to manukan and sapi island RM70
tips : sampai each pulau, they will ask u to pay the park entrance fee (mcm kat redang tu) RM3 kot per adult. so bayar lagila ye 

as we have only 45mins to spend at at sapi so kitorg just chill2 while HM play sand castle a while. at 11.15am our boat arrived and took us to manukan. we have almost 2hrs 30mins there and we are enjoying ourself. Less crowds, that's the beauty holidaying on weekdays and with the clear blue water, lagi fun! snorkeling  gear can be rented at RM10 - 1 set google tuh

ayah & anak poser haha

at jesselton terminal

jeti at manukan. fishes kat kaki2 tu je

meh main pasir

group pics

HM sibuk main ni la

less crowds, enjoy the sea!

fav island

journey balik boat rides sgt bumpy. yelah time tu abt almost 3pm, air pasang. doa je everything will be fine with si kecik inside. instructed the boatmen bawak slow sket.
sampai je jeti, semua kelaparan hahaha. mkn kasi kenyang be4 balik hotel

abt 530pm we went out again for last round of shopping and pasar phil (driving this time) and went to Tg Aru for a diff environment of food court. Kat sini famous ngn ABC spesel (if nak tgk how big and splurge is the abc spesel sila follow ig amirpistola) lol
kat foodcourt sini ada mcm2 tp tgk food gakla ada yg best and tak. i am so dead tired that night, must be the post-island-lagged. plus i have to start packing jugak. uwaaaaaaa
confirmed balik bilik kemas sket je lepas tu mmg pengsan, semua!

Sabah Trip #2- to KK

as i mentioned earlier, while at Kundasang the view in the morning that definitely not to be missed is the morning view of Mt Kinabalu as during this time je there's no clouds covering it. So harus enjoy and take the spectacular view. Please ensure you've got room with a view otherwise its such a wasted
Weather been so cold in fact we don't on the fan dlm room since windows are open. Fresh air kan!

Good am Mt Kinabalu!!

 I woke up at 6am and the sun has arise. Drinking the Sabah tea while enjoying the fresh air moment with superb view is ahhmaiizing. Susah nak dapat kat KL fresh air with view camni. Its such a blessed for the locals who stayed here for having this. Cold air and water everyday. LOL.

at 730am we went for breakfast. Food was biasa je but sedap. Varieties jugak.

i just cant stop seeing flowers blooming perfectly. They are so fresh and colorful. Geram

model x mandi w flowers

this about 830am

Then its time to packed and out from here heading to KK. Before that, a picture!

Journey di teruskan to all other interest places. no 1 in the list was Dairy Farm Kundasang yang femes dgn view ala2 NZ yang ada lembu tuh. about 10 mins from our place

kat sini you can get FRESH milk, gelato, ice cream and some souvenirs.
Plan nak amik tipikal pictures with all the lembu2 tu tak dapekla coz it was damn middle the field. So with mmbeekk pun jadila. We tried the gelato and its yummy, like this picture

See?

Next is menempuh perjalanan yang konah baring sana sini gak for almost 2hrs gak> while in the mids of road, we found Jambatan Tamparuli. Tapi takde mood nak amik picture coz perut cramp, lapar and damn hot. So just watch and say goodbye

if panas camni korg nak kene panjat jambatan tamparuli ni gak? kahkahkah so not for me

about 10mins from Jam. Tamparuli area, we reached the famous and maybe a bit overrated Rumah terbalik. Entrance fee was RM10/A. We were focusing more to the Restaurant mangga which is next to it for our lunch. Impressive that the price was affordable plus NO TAX/GST. awesome!

and so we're heading to Hotel Grandis at KK. so can't wait to check in to the new launched hotel. but the sad news staying at new hotel are swim pool tak siap lagi, got some minor defect ie: my water heater, in room but the rest are good. spacious room and all brand new. we're happy! breakfast was good and had lots varieties. the better best, (adake ayat camni) we're attached with the Suria mall and 5mins walking to the Jesselton Point for island hopping esok

mlm ni kita pegi makan seafood la.
we ordered 2 lobster (grilled), sotong goreng tepung, sayur kailan, nasi putih, variety drinks, ikan sebelah, ketam andd.... (ada lgke? haha lupa) with total only RM250++ divide by 3 couples. cer korg kira. murah kan. the place be4 pasar phil and from far korg akan tgk byk white tents yg mmg offer seafood jelah

to Ha Long Bay we go

day 2
as early as 8am (hanoi is one hour behind Msia) we are ready for our whole day journey to Ha Long Bay. if i am travelling on my own, i would maybe choose to stay on the cruise and enjoying the view. Get an ideas about it here 
anyway, journeys took 3hours lebih (kebas bont) but it was way better that my journey from phnom penh-siem reap. sceneries are more on paddy fields. otw, we stopped at one of the tourist crafts centre (maybe kot) and the moment i stepped out from the van, it is so chilly and windy (plus its still rainy). To the loo i went hahahha

"where's Lilian" everyone asked.
looks like she's the only left out and still shopping, i guess. everyone waited and there's an evil idea to just left her out hahaha

so we arrived at the port. weather is so hazy and foggy. and windy too.

in our itinerary, we should be having our seafood lunch in the boat while enjoying the rides

seafood lunch in the boat

the port to go to halong bay

pit stop, to the fishing village
beside than watching at the fishes, we had this opportunity to be in a small sampan and went to the other side of the cave. paid USD6/person for almost 40mins rides, sailed by a strong-muscle-woman.
"come, camera camera, picture" so we posed
"ok good, one more", we posed again, praying too that no ones jatuh dalam laut (i have 4 huge men in the boat with only 2 tiny girls inside. so unbalanced)

then she tarted to singing their own song. tak paham pun. but enjoying much

the unbalanced crews

neighbours (unbalanced too coz too light.lol)

 once we entered to the other side of the cave, masya-Allah the view is just spectacular.
surrounding is so peaceful and calm. saw eagles flying on top.

u can opted for kayaking too. tatau how much

continues

Exploring Hanoi

Alhamdulillah, dapat rezeki to went hanoi on company trip this time

the hotel we stayed had halal food. Its Cosiana Hotel & Spa. Reviews from Trip advisor was so promising and yes it is.
location wise are good and quite distance (45mins drive from airport)
just got to know that Hanoi are also having 4 season weather but obviously no snow la but the temp can go down as low as 10c and sometimes below 10c

We took a package with the hotel consists of room + bbf, trip to halong bay, transport, city tour, meals (lunch & dinner) for 4d3n including of transport to and fro airport for almost 20paxs and per pax cost us USD217/person and twin sharing basis USD262/person

1st day
reached hotel about 230pm and later we are to have our brainstorm & budget presentation 2014. Dragged till 8pm and later had a hearty dinner and tido. weather been raining cats and dogs and so i decided to just get a rest and prepare for the long day esok

from far i thot its a wig shop but then they sold helmets. lol

Krabi story #3 - the pool and the end

tetiba after short break on the Krabi updates, ada sambungan pulak
biasalah update blog bila mood menggila je
if not tgk blog baca cerita org lain and that's it. heh

Anyhoo, our 3rd day at Krabi only half day gitula

Kitorang bersiap again this time for slightly jauh sket journey to the Emerald Pool and the hot spring waterfall. Journey by van took us almost an hour but we stopped for light breakfast at this one pitstop yg ada jual souvenirs. lepas dah isi perut sikit, we proceed. Place a bit out circuit and we went to this hot spring waterfall.
From the main entrance to the waterfall we walked about 15mins and when arrived,
"la, itu je waterfall nye?"

haha yes, so disappointed after so much walking. The waterfall dahla sesak ngan tourists yang lain and the tempat only that seciput? the waterfall has 3 small layered but somehow the top part airnya warm. ada yang mandi and kitorang ni malas nak bersesak dengan anak lagi takdelah nak terhegeh nak mandi hot spring yang kekdahnya macam di Malaysia pun ada.

Then menapak keluar and terus pi Emerald pool pulak. Been seeing reviews about this pool that has natural emerald color based. tapiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
to reach to this pool you have to walk and slightly mendaki about 30mins (depends on your speed) hoiiii, mencabar sungguh. masin ada anak sorang while si ain (yg preggy) and ucop bawa 2kids. my HM the first 5mins je rajin jalan the rest carried by ayah at the back.
 ber-poloh-poloh (HM said)

When finally we arrived, the crowd are not that packed so we tried to find a best spot to
ber "picnic" kejap and mandi. Unfortunately i am only the paparazzi of the day :/
Spend about 45min-1 hour here and started walking back  which by then everyone was so starving and we had lunch at a one muslim kedai. Tapikan the hygiene and surrounding a bit poor la. i just hope that none of us had tummy upset later but it was cheap i tell you

OTW back to hotel, we drop by at one of the Factory outlet yang kinda small just to test water and cuci water. There's nothing much there beside than a men/sports/ladies/kids/traveling section. As usual i found the kids dept are more attractive than mine. And disebab kan while naik motor haritu to have our dinner, tah cemana la i boleh tak sedar that HM's mothercare sweater (yes, must mentioned the brand coz for me that sweater mahal gile) jatuh and gone. Dah siap patah balik and carik but takde rezeki la
i pray that any poor girl/family yang berniaga tepi jalan tu found that so they can use it

Back to hotel while we rest and plan for our dinner at that village area again (they preferred to have nasi campur style rather than eat at Aonang area, maybe coz its cheap and sedap?)
While we decided to have our dinner at Aonang and this time a bit western as we find it ketika naik motor and meredah hujan (yang started w gerimis then tetiba lebat) plus ada anak dihimpit in between us is sooooo not a good idea. We don't want to take the risks of putting our daughter main hujan, meredah jalan malam2 with no proper raincoat/attire
Kami rasa takpelah kami spend lebih sket as long kami semua tak demam and nothing happen in results of naik motor and meredah hujan ( this depends on each parents)
so we had a bit of western today and its pizza.

back to hotel and we packed (more to me!) and ready for our early flight tomorrow



and as expected AA ni tak famous if flight tak delayed. so we wait a while and nak flight tidolah. reached KL and home sambung tido lagi. hahha, unpacked can be done the net day as i am still on AL

Gone

tahun 2013 ni macam tahun terima berita terkejut
mostly are sad news la
news yg i tak sangka sungguh

setiap kematian adalah pasti . but that's the fact kan

it's all first started when the former GM of Taman Negara passed away on the 1st Jan 2013
what a sad way to celebrate your new year
but i am truly blessed that we've managed to visit him and that property on oct 2012 after so much pestering from him to me and my boss
we spent that 3d2n well together
no internet, social activity etc except for important sms and calls

1st Jan, received news that he is gone. after the major operation sometimes in march-may 2012 that he went through to throw his colon cancer. He is recovering but still
as others said, when it comes to silent killer cancer and at stage 4, it's just on your luck to survive the next life

i cried for him :

and recently while everyone is busy celebrating our raya, that particular 7th August i have lost my deary friend and personal doctor Dr Bhavani which i used to call her nick as Dr B or Bunny as her other friends knew her

My lovely and attentive doctor which i knew since she's been at my work panel clinic way back 2005 onwards. Not only she's been very helpful as a patient-doctor relationship but she is willing to assist by advising onto your personal health and life. We continued keep in touch as she and family decided to move to Dubai for a change in life and career. And i got pregnant, and we continued emailing each other and updates our life phase so on. Through out my 9mo  pregnancy, she has been there for me to seek 2nd opinion advice.

And when they decided to move to OZ about 2 yrs back i think, we still in touch. Sometimes in FB too. She will  reply my email no matter how late it is. Tho we're miles apart but it feels so close to each other (sounds cliche?)

till my last email to her dated 7th July which she never replied me at all till 3weeks back.
Which i thought it is some kind of joke/prank email from her with titled : Join us in our mourning -__-

reading the email content has somehow made me think it was pure joking till i read thrice and let myself digest and accept that she is my favourite DR B that has gone away, forever.
i have no more personal doctor and friend that always be my side whenever i'm worried over my irregular periods, i have this issue and etc
my curiosity has been answered, she were in silent coz she was in massive car accident on 7th august when she's otw to work. as i heard from other docs that she had a massive  injured which left 50-50 chances.

Dr B, just want you to know that i cried like a little girl (that u used to tell me) and almost couldn't believed and accept the fact that you're gone. I am so sad and i don't know why it has given me so much impact. but i guess God has a better plan for you there.

I felt sorry for Chris, Nat and Tina

i wish i can tell them that you have been so proud over Nat that has went to special school for his talented gift and Tina for growing up into such a beautiful girl and of course Chris that has been there for u always 

Doc, i just feel that you have been helping me a lot and there's nothing that i did in  return for you besides that my doa that may your sould in peace there

i might be looked so harsh outside but i'm just a small little girl that you've known since my 20s till i am married with one daughter

ps : leceh update cerita sedih kat office coz sure meleleh and i can't help to hide it
