what is your AMBITION?

haa.... thats always the Q asked ever since we are sooo cute up to now when we are soo hot! *ehem ehem* as far as i remember, i grew up with different kind of ambition at different stage of life. i bet u r as well~~~ *sila jgn nafikan ye* but somehow some, or should i say most of us grew up to be totally different from what we aspire to be. for me, here are

my ambitions

primary school = stewardess

bolleeey??? haha. yes truely i wanted to be one. its just becoz those lady got to be in the aircraft, fly around the world, free holiday here & there. those day naik airplane ni not so cheap like today. no low cost, all mas. so kids w seriously loaded pocket je could fly!

lower secondary school = architect

tell u im good at drawing & colour ok. i have stable hand *yelaaa.... thats the requirement to be one* im good at transferring ideas into paper, i can visualize a drawing/an idea to be reality. so i think being one is the best for me! somemore azhar sulaiman is handsome & is archi as well~~ ala...can count as well kan? motivator nih..!!!

upper secondary school = engineer

going into technical school, i felt like becoming an engineer. although i dont know what the h**l is chemical engineer, and since engineer is quite glamour u know. yelaa... if org tya "u keje ape?" "engineer" tak ke bangga tu. and summore i just dont want to be in the same line with my 2 sisters *hi u ols!* and for me, taking engineering subject is much more challenging than business subject. and i wanted to get sponsor from big O&G company

university = simulation engineer

wah~~ this is more specific dah. my interest has focus to simulation. i like software, analytical, process modeling subject. i just loiiiikee!!!! and for me to study in a widely known uni in msia, i am so proud to work with the company. and summore when ppl said chemical engineering is the 5th toughest engineering in the world at that time, i would like to prove myself that i can excel to be one of the high flyer result
*eksyen sungguh!*

working = management

here i am doing that thing now. i like to do this simply becoz i can see the organisation as a whole. i like to see things from top to bottom, 360deg. i just love dealing with people, networking with management, developing capability.. u name it! i love the whole story about developing people

now = business

wah gitew~!! i am into this thing since i was young. but i just dont realise it *or was i in denial??* for me, business makes me tak duduk diam. i just cant go to work everyday and comeback home with nothing else to do except housework & family. of course i like doing that~~ i like to keep myself busy and do many things at one time. my dad always said "u never know if u can do it unless u tried once". and for me to try, and fall, and try again, and continue trying, is making me feel soooooo alive! hahahha

future = where to ya?

working abroad maybe......this is not a hint to resign yee... harap maklum!!

so what is your ambition?

OMG.......... hurrryy!!!!!

hye ya ols~~~~~ im soooo excited looking at the hit counter that will turn into 4digits!!!!!! since today is last day of working in April *esooook cutiiii!!!*, i want to giveaway something~~~~

redang island escapade

olla peeps!! from my recent trip, would like to share you our visit's comparison

aug2008 vs mar2010

redang island escapade

target : planned getaway vs short-while-biz-trip-to-KT getaway season : peak vs low price : rm512 (can get rm439 during low time) vs rm364 resort : laguna redang islang resort vs redang beach resort package : both 3D2N full board boat transfer : laguna speedboat vs ferry jetty marang vs syahbandar

comment/advice/tips : since we opted for afternoon transfer last mar2010, we have to choose redang beach resort package. we dont put a high hope in this resort since we knew some of the review. comparing laguna and redang beach, we prefer laguna redang beach resort moooooooreeeee simply becoz they have dedicated jetty, dedicated speedboat, far better environment, room services, housekeeping, wide selection of food, tv, coffee&tea making facilities, more comfortable bed, better snorkeling spots, swimming pool. with additional rm120 gitu, we think its worth it~!!!! seriously~~

owwhhh....ni je satu bende that we like about redang beach resort.... the swing! hoho

should i... should i not~~~~ *thinking*

haiyooO~~~~ susah banget mau dipikirin..... should i post, or shouldn't i post about it.

 its big for those who luuuuuuuurve it!!! it a pleasure to the eye for those who admire it~~~~ 

for me, i loikeeeeee it very very much!!! tak dpt pon takpe... janji its my utmost therapy ~~~ 

heart says : yeessssssssss!!!! tp kalau ikut kata hati, m**i... erk!!!

hurrmmmm.......... tgu ptg sket... kang rasa2 confirm i blog it~~~!!

man + cook = sexy?

is it really true??? hahaha. was watching rachel ray show this afternoon and her guest was rocco dispirito. who is he? ooowwww.... he is known for his italian-american cuisine and he transforms America's favorite comfort foods into deliciously healthy dishes-all with zero bad carbs, zero bad fats, zero sugar, and maximum flavor. wallah~!!! very the vast kan.... agaknye boley tak abg rocco transform malay cuisine pulak?? 

so what izzit on man + cook = sexy? not all chef out there yg really hot kan~~~ lalalalala... for me, i think man that can cook or at least try to cook is sexy! they are not physically sexy but rather they have the sense that only person who cook have it, its the sense of accuracy, balance and masterpiece. owh..... never a good cook have the same recipe. they invented and improved for every meals. thus this is why they are sexy!! got it?? *how i feel so sexy now~~*

DO YOU?

tips to tackle toddler's high fever

as a mom, everyone wanted the best for their kiddos. when things goes wrong, we tend to get panic attacked and dont know what to do. based on my sister's experience, i learnt a lot on ways to tackle high fever. for me, my definition of high fever is when your child's body temp is around/exceed 38.7degC (101.6degF)

1. sponging - use small towel or sponge. start from bottom-up i.e. feet to head. this is to ensure the body does not get shocked with the water temp. the objective is to keep the body cools down. let the water to self-adsorb into the body.


2. bath - if your kiddos's temp is too high (above 39.5degC / 103degF), straight bring them to the toilet and bath them bottom up as well. this is a better method to ensure the body gain more water. use the tab water, not hot water. i repeat... tab water~~ let the water to self-adsorb into the body.


3. monitor - make sure you have a reliable thermometer to get the best reading. those days i was using normal automatic thermo *ala...yg panjang tu n bile abis reading bunyik beep beep. got it?*. but for me i think that thermo cant provide fast reading *yela...mana larat nk tgu lama..tensi!*, we opt for ear thermo. you cant get this thermo at guardian or watson or even clinic! its fast, very very very fast


4. hydrate - if you feel to keep your kiddos hydrated, pat pat water on their body and let the water to self-adsorb into the body. continue doing it until you feels that its enuff
 
5. coverage - if you are doing the above at night, make sure that u dont wet their chest & head (minimal at face only). this is to avoid ur kiddos get flu, cough or pneumonia.


6. sleep - dont ever use blanket to cover you kiddos and dont put long sleeve & socks. we want to let go the heat, not keep them with the kiddos

thats about it peeps~~ keep your kiddos healthy :)

the LORD of tooth

siannnnnnnn qist~~~~ its been 3days already and her high fever is still up & down. last friday morning i woke-up in shock when her temperature shown 38.7C. masyaAllah....!! straight away sponging the whole body, continue taking her temp *thanx ku for buying the ear thermo!* , continue again with hydrating the body. berat hati nk g keje..... the whole friday her temp is still high... . her temp later at night ok and by sat morning became normal. lega~~~  but biasalah it continue with flue & cough. all of a sudden early this morning she shown high temp again!! eehhh.....??? im confuse now... rupenye her molar tooth is coming out~~ awww..... pity her.... no wonder she's been less interest in food, porridge, milk. she took mainly plain water &  biscuit. alhamdulillah minum jugey susu when her temp goes down yesterday... a pediatrician says

"teething can cause diarrhea and a mild diaper rash because your child's excessive saliva ends up in his gut and loosens his stools. Inflammation in the gums, he thinks, may cause a low fever (under 101degF = 38.3degC)" *babycenter.com*

however, a child development experts say

"teething cannot cause fever, diarrhea, vomiting, or loss of appetite and that these are signs of illness that should be checked out........... probably due to an infection unrelated to teething, but that the stress associated with teething could make your child more vulnerable to infection right before a new tooth appears." *babycenter.com*

haaa...now i understand why she behaved that way... ok enuff on the fact. what i need for her today.... her rubber teething ring and biscuit to ease her soreness. i am wondering where is her 

tooth fairy...!!

oooooo...woooowwwww!!!

NO added sugar juice = normal juice?? u sure?!!

ok now... talking about no addedd sugar juice, the 1st thing that trigger us is NO SUGAR. rite? but we must be very very careful if the drink has substituted sugar with aspartame as it is the culprit, worst than sugar. ok not this topic that im highlighting it here but rather orange juice drink vs orange juice (no added sugar). the fact that im a health cautious person *ok now i admit it..theeehehehee*, im concern on things going into my body. my concept of eating is simple "eat only things that give you nutrition NOT being a machine to process food" *but sometime i forget this concept...eating what??*

as your body will only adsorb goodies from food and others will be redistribute everywhere in the body, one must be very careful esp woman approaching 30s. arrggghhh..... its not the number that im afraid of but rather the fitrah alam yg mmg menjadikan woman cycle that way. well... of course we cant against it rite?! unless taking in botox, plastic surgery etc lah~~!!

while browsing around the market for weekly supply, ku felt like having orange juice coz katanya "sakit tekak ni kene minum juice la..." *apakah??* well... as usual peel fresh orange juice cross my mind. owh.. i choose peel fresh compared to others. when i compared its orange juice drink vs orange juice (no added sugar), i was stunned for the fact that the sugar content is very much similar!!! so ape yg lainnye?? dahla mahal for almost double kan~~~ we came out with soooo many theories about it. siap debate lagi hokeh~! well...nature being engineer camtula kot. last2 tak puas hati jgk i google about it. hurm.... quite hampa coz i didnt get what i want. i came across few website and article that compared the calories content between the two..

for me, i believe that for the fact that the similar sugar content is derived from a higher juice content in the no added sugar version. thats the only reason that make sense. well.....after all

orange juice DRINK = juice + sugar

vs

orange juice (no addedd sugar) = juice only

what is your FANTASY???

waaahhh~~!! panazzzz gitew... owh.. no no!! dnot think tooo hard u olss~ every saturday everyday in his 2 weeks off-day, ku will managed his fantasy football team, kuqis. yezzaaaa.... true enuff its from our cutie mootiee lil daughter name. hoho. *commercial sungguh nama itew* i dont  really bother the game at all~~ lalalalala... but i guess majority of man around the world play this. well.... this include football fans, footballer, coaches and not to forget kaki bangku! while this fantasy includes famous league in the world, ku choose the premier league *ok now im traying hard to blog this.. i need to ask him then only he answered! goshhh~~* talking about premier leagues, this means christiano not playing in it. owh.... no wonder he never appeared in ku's player list! now i know christiano is playing in La Liga. while the ranking of each team falls under 2 category.. overall world level and own created group, kuqis ranked as.........

world ranking

*think the total team is >200,000!!

la liga de hermanos group ranking

*total of 17 teams

oowwwww...im sooo impressed!! no wonder ku has been so bersemangat when it comes too managing it. so ladies~~~ need a coach on this?? buzz us! lets join the fantasy football. i bet we have a better name for it...  la liga de pinkish perhaps??

freeeeeeeeeezing!

i still cant believe til now how on earth do those ants still alive! am preparing breakfast this morning @ papa's crib. when i opened the egg's case.........

tadaaa~~~!!!

can you see itt???

meh meh zoom sket lagi..

wondering how those ants still alive. pity them fr been freezing & get-together for heat *ni ku nye assumption* jalan pon dah lembab 

ants owh ants.....

unexpected..amazed.....how to do that???

for the topic, i think its worth to sleep at 1am and now 5am waking up doing some research online. i was so amazed for the fact that working mommies is sooo all out making side works *haa... what are you thinking tu!!*, generating more money!! and for the fact that i am going aiming to that category, why not bersengkang mata menimba ilmu kan~~ how i prayed every single day that the opportunity will come, that the time is near, that the right person should be approached. for coaching, for learning, for sharing. i am thought since i was small and always believe til now that if you want something sooo hard, Allah will give you at the end. its a matter of time. papa always thought me that...

"in life, dont hold it too hard until its gone nor too loose that it easily gone BUT hold it firmly and nicely so that it is comfortably fit you palm"

as a daughter, i always find hard to believe it take it seriously simply coz my dad has thousands and thousands of positive thinking in his head!!! give it a try, never give up, you can do it, never say no and list goes on... and its true that match is made in heaven. as for my mom whom character is opposite of my dad, also thought me to be

fast learner, stretch your target & performance, competitor, aim high

well... true enuff that of course i dont realise it when i was small *yelaaa..sbbnye bile kene marah or brainwash, mane nk masuk dlm kepala* but thinking back, Allah is soooo maha mengetahui that has many hidden secret for us to uncover it. even if you think you understand yourself, but enough saying it, you are NOT! why?? becoz if we are, we should be a better person. true?? i guess i still need to buy that book lah... i think i have uncovered some of my secret. so... 

what is your SECRET?

unforgettable MEMORY ever~

while having lunch with the gurls today, we gossiping about so maaaaany things! slowly we track back and back until the topic reach about our school. of course there's tooo many to talk about.  

what is your UNFORGETTABLE MEMORY EVER being a student??

primary school : owh.... i stil remember during my primary times, there were many Bosnia student in our school. siap ada specific area for them lagi. there is one boy in my class which i hated soooo much! hahahah... cant remember why~~~ what i remember when we had a fight that i kicked him *chewah....berani gile la konon dengan harapan his gentleman laa.... what do you expect man!!* skali tu he kicked me back!!! i was like "how could you!!!" hahahh

lower secondary school : every month when our "auntie's visit" time, gurls mestila coootiii kan. disebabkan tanak the boys noticed that we are peot cant prayed, we hide under the table and stay silent for like .. 1 hours???! berpeluh2 la ketiak menahan sbb kene tutup kipas lagi~!

upper secondary school : my time in asrama is one of my best memory. gurls dorm is exectly opposite of the guys. hye u gurls!!! still remember tak how we stay up late at nite semata2 nak mengintai our boys kene ragging!! head boy pon join sama ragging bebudak ni~! siap korang.....

university : wah~!!! time waas the best time to usha guys. hohoohohooho. peep them from our window & everywhere lah!
