:: Spring 09 ::
|
|
Siang makin panjang..sang mentari makin galak menonjolkan diri sekarang. Wah..seronok2..tidak lagi terasa seperti berada di bumi asing, seperti berada di tanahair sendiri rasanya. Di sini tiap kali spring, sang bunga sentiasa setia memberikan senyuman kepada kami. We loveeeeeeeeeee spring!
Early spring..kami bergambar bersama daffodil & cherry blossom..now summer is nearly comes..time for shooting with d rapeseed! In d north Yorkshire nie...rata2..pandang kiri kanan mesti kelihatan hamparan carpet kuning..bila lalu jer area farm rapeseed ada satu macam 'baaaaau'..memang menyusuk hidung. Its' smell..not 'calming & soothing' like roses..bau bunga nie lain macam skit! 
I can't imagine cemana Kajol & Shahrukh Khan shooting filim Dilwale dlm ladang nie..agaknya props mesti canggih giler utk melepasi & meredah bunga2 . He..he..dua beradik tuh pun takut nak redah..si kakak takut spider..yg adiknya kelihatan geli bila dia tenggelam dalam bunga-bungaan tuh. Dan yg peliknya..si Daddynya pun takuttttttttt..takut ulaq!!!! Apapun Subhanallah...saujana mata memandang keindahan alam ciptaan Tuhan.

:: BST starts today...cherry blossoms & daffodil hunting ::
|
|
UK daylight saving time starts today...we have to forward the time (1 hr). Makanya jurang waktu M'sia-UK back to 7 hrs. This year we seemed to enjoy the sunshine more compare to last year. In April last year, snow still pouring at this time. I remembered 'heret' Aydin yang baru 2 mos time tuh to the Pearson Park to let him 'feel' the snow!
Again this weekend after mummy met her SV, we bring the kids to the park. But this weekend before go to the park..mummy ask daddy 'can we go and hunt cherry blossoms & daffodil' first??? He..he..bukan apa sebenaqnya...actually sebelum nie macam tak kisah pun kewujudan bunga-bungaan tuh di sini but setelah Dr Anton Setyawan & bapak Ihwan Susila bertanyakan mummy perihal bunga ini..barulaaa terasa nak appreciate dgn apa yg ada di sekililing.
I met these two delegates from Muhammadiyah Uni. of Surakarta Indonesia at BAM CSR conference in York Uni last Thursday. Dr Anton nie..bukan jer setakat tanya soalan during my presentation...after presentation pun bertanyakan soalan hingga kan ke topic bunga2. Cuma mummy mcm tersalah bagi fakta pasai daffodil...after baca kat Wikipedia..then I know that daffodil also could be found in Asia...so maybe ada juga kot kat Indonesia?
So, then..apa lagi..buruan sakura aka cherry blossoms yg baru nak mekar berjaya sudah hari nie. Aydin yg baru sembuh dari chicken pox pon..bukan main lagi berjalan. Sekarang berjalan dah tak bagi orang pimpin tangan...dah 'eksyen'...pergi park pon dah pandai nak join org main bola..cuma naik swing jer takut...tak macam Arissa..he..he..terjerit2 suruh daddy push laju2.. Happynyaaaaaaaaa...tengok anak2 nie if they're happy...

:: Le Tour de MU ::
|
|
Our trip to Manchester last weekend was a last minute decision. Eventho it was really 'unplanned' holiday but we enjoyed this trip to max. Mummy for sure like going out for honeymoon since she'd finish her first year report! She got a big hug from her supervisor (female supervisor of course) after the presentation and she won't forget that 'sweetest' moment for her entire life. She feel happy now because someone is appreciating her hardwork (am I really hardworking???) But she knows that she really cannot 'goyang kaki'..it just a beginning to 'test' the real hardwork.
So, the trip to Manchester really taking my breath away..he..he..lupa habis pasal kerja sekolah. This short trip also consider as mummy b'day gift! Thank you daddy & kids...for d very 'touching b'day card', chocolate cake & b'day song (sang by Arissa & Aydin) and one nite stay @ Travelodge.
We drop by at Derby to meet Margaret & met baby Zulaikha Dania in Manchester. Baby Dania is still fresh from oven baru 2 mos..merah2 lagi. Hopefully, after this baby Dania dapat turun Hull pulak.
I can't believe it, finally dapat tengok rumput dalam stadium MU My hubby is not a MU fan tapi dia tetap puji 'kecantikan' stadium MU. Mak oiiiiiiiiiiiii..rumput2 tuh dijaga siap dgn sinar ultraviolet tuh...kira ada UV protection. No wonder the grass look so healthy & 'refreshing'...sampai macam tuh sekali penjagaannya...he..he..muka mummy pon jarang2 ada UV protection..so cemana nak look healthy kan?
Kami sempat juga ke Wing Yip...nak cari santan kelapa sedap. Almaklumlah sini takdak org jual santan kelapa fresh..maka kena la cari alternative yg seakan-akan. Dalam banyak2 brand santan dalam tin..Krawtip la paling best. Di Hull takdak juai..so kami borong dua dozen  Ternampak ada buah manggis..alahai kecik2 jer manggis tuh...mahal pulak tuh. Macam teringin..tapi tak la beriyaaa...so simpan hasrat balik makan di Malaysia laaa nanti. Tapi bila teringat pantun;
Hitam-hitam si tampuk manggis
Walaupun hitam dipandang manis
Uwaaaaaaaaaaa...macam menyesal tak beli...sure manis...entah bila dapat rasa lagi..bila musim manggis di Malaysia ehhhh????

::Diari 13 Januari 2009::
|
|
9.00 a.m :
*Dd send mummy to school.
11.30 a.m:
*Daddy fetch mummy coz Aydin ada appointment di GP. Mummy nervous juga takut2 Aydin melalak dgn hebat for his 1yr injection. Unfortunately, sangkaan mummy meleset sama sekali. Aydin dgn bangganya declare diri dia HERO coz tak menangis langsung..he just ..'ouchhh'. Sampai mummy tanya Dd..'did the injection go through??' he..he mcm tak percaya..Aydin mcm tak rasa apa2 pun..biar betul budak nie!!! So, my conclusion maybe d midwife..really TERROR..right tecnique kot dia cucuk ke paha tembun Aydin..so Aydin feel no pain at all.
12.00 noon:
*Mummy back to school. My physical was there..tetapi fikiran ku melayang2 ke Aydin. Panas ke badan dia? Baru terasa sakit ke dia? Yer laa..coz di GP tadi..midwife beriya2 pesan..kalau body temperature high..sediakan wet towel & bagi paracetamol. Kalau naik merah2 di peha..tuam2kan pesan midwife.
3.00 pm:
*Waktu wajib Dd fetch me home coz 3.30 p.m Dd masuk kerja. This is the time kami tukar shift to look after d kids Unfortunately, our car is having a 'problem' sebaik sahaja Dd elok2 landing dlm area uni. We both 'panic' seketika coz Arissa & Aydin are left at home. Jarang2 mereka ditinggalkan berdua di rumah walaupun jarak masa Dd pick up mummy from home-uni-home just about 5 minutes. Nak dijadikan tambah cerita gelabah kami..that day Dd tak bring them along coz Arissa tgh syok layan DvD. Kereta tak leh tinggal dlm uni. nnt kena 'angkat'..& 'saman'..so while waiting for the rescue..mummy decide jalan kaki balik rumah. Dd suruh mummy naik bus..almaklumlah dia tahu wife dia nie..mmg slow motion..kurang2 10-15 mins. baru sampai rumah. Tapi masalahnya..mummy nie tak pandai naik bas..memalukan kan?? Mmg betul2 rasa malu pada diri sendiri masa tuh. So..I said to myself..I better walk fast..fastest as I can coz my kids are left at home..sambil menapak..mcm2 fikir..salah satunya..jangan la si Arissa tetiba pandai nak buka safety gate etc. Alhamdulillah...Allah Maha Kaya..sebaik saja mummy sampai di rumah...kelihatan anak2 ku sudah lena dibuai mimpi. Tertidur2 dua beradik tuh..huk..huk..sedihnyaaaaaaaaaaa. Dalam hati terdetik..'malaikat jaga anak2ku tadi'...Ini kalau tahu dek org2 council sure kami kena warning tinggalkan bebudak without anyone supervision..tapi nak buat cemana dek nonnnn oiii..Inilah antara cabaran kami di sini..hidup penuh berdikari..lantas anak2 kecilku pun terpaksa dilatih berdikari..terima kasih duhai anak2 ku.
6.00 p.m
*Nizam & Elman dah sampai...yeaaaaa...tonite we gonna have small b'day 'makan2' for Aydin & Elman. We all tak invite anyone else..ni ala2 mcm makan2 adik-beradik jer..he..he. Mummy cooked mix pilau, dalca, ayam & daging masak hitam. Dd beli cake segera from TESCO. After makan2..kami layan gambar2 Nizam pi Swis last summer. Dd mcm interested jer? Ada chance nak pi Swis kot summer nie???
10.00 p.m:
*Nizam & Elman balik. Aydin dpt hadiah..on behalf of Aydin ..'thank you abg Nizam, Abg Elman, Abg Md Noor & Abg Wan for d lovely gifts'...walaupun Aydin tak faham 13th January is his b'day...tapi dia suka hati bila mummy pakaikan baju baru hadiah hari lahir dia.
My dear sweetheart...my hero..doa Dd & mummy & semua..semoga Mohamad Ilham Aydin membesar dgn sihat, cergas & cerdas. Ameen.
O.k itulah catatan diari kami pada tanggal 13 Januari 2009. How time flies...Aydin dah pun SETAHUN.

Sedar tak sedar.. 9 hari kita di tahun baru masehi. Bagi kami di sini, 2008 ada kisah duka..ada kisah suka. Antara kisah suka kami di sini;kehadiran ahli keluarga baru-Aydin dan dukanya kami di sini..setelah kehilangan ayahanda tercinta pada May lepas. Emm..2009? Apa pula yg mendatangkan? Hopefully, semua yg baik2 sahaja berlaku pada kita. Azam? Mudahan2 azam & iltizam 2009 berjalan lancar.
Penghujung 2008 menyaksikan kesibukan 'tepu' mummy. Orang lain sibuk ambil kesempatan jalan2 Europe & UK sempena cuti2 yg panjang & package2 holiday yg murah sempena winter nie, kami sefamily hanya bersuka-ria di rumah & membeli belah during Boxing Day.
Sorry yer Mr Hubby & anak2 ...my little Aydin pon dah boring tengok mummy dia asyik2 depan skrin nie. Bila dia ada chance panjat to my chair..dia akan capai mouse & key board & ketuk2 (tanda protest) Dgn kata lain ..dia dah jadi anti-keyboard & mouse. Agaknya..Aydin mesti rasa or think yg mak dia nie..give more attention to those things compare to him...huk..huk..damn feel guilty!! Me..sedih..Hope one day he'll understand everything..InsyaAllah..selesai saja 'kerja sekolah' mummy part I nie..kita ronda2 k. He..he..ini baru penangan kerja sekolah part I..dah rasa mcm tak nampak donia...kalo dah masuk part II dan seterusnya..tak tahu la cemana gayanya yer?
Istiqamah..istiqamah..(he..he ayat sedapkan hati sendiri). Lagipun..cuaca sejuk2 nie tak sesuai nak jalan over2 tapi shopping over2 boleh..yerlaaa..shopping is in the shop kan? (alasan)...itu yg membeli sampai 'terbelah' budget daddy. Anyway..TQ to Mr Hubby..you are so kind & generous donate pound to me. This year on Boxing Day..mummy dapat baju2 idaman & kasut idaman...cuma handbag idaman jer tak dapat
 takpa2..don't be so tamak...itu amalan syaitan  Lagipun masyarakat dunia dok sibuk perihal ekonomi yg tenat...dgn mana sistem kapitalis yg sudah tidak menjadi..maka dgn itu salah satu azam mummy this year is to spend wise. Tapi kalau dilihatkan nilai pound yg makin susut ..ini molek kiranya kita (Malaysian) berbelanja di sini. Me sounds like shopaholic pulak So mari2..kakak adik datang cuti2 ke England. But in Malaysia pon..the economic scenario turn to worst. Frens said many companies lay-off & yg terkini ada yg slash/cut pay..emmm..can we categorise this as one of 'bala'?? Natijah dari perbuatan manusia itu sendiri maka Allah taala turunkan bala seperti ini. Kuasa2 besar seperti Amerika pun tewas dgn bala ekonomi ini. Bila puak Zionis nak tewas erk? Kesian anak2 kecil & wanita di Palestin yg jadi mangsa rejim Zionis nie... Akan munculkah Hitler II? Eh..apasal entry kali nie terbincang masalah sejagat pulak...end. he..he..
Last but not least..wishing everyone here ALL d BEST for 2009!
p.s Gambar2 di entry kali ini campur2..mcm pasembor Penang..(terliur nyer)
*ada gambar boss daddy & family during their holidays here
*ada gambar christmas party
*ada gambar snow
*dan mcm2

Next week, ada discussion with Arissa's teacher. The teacher said they'll discuss with us about her recent development & achievement. He..he..apa la yg cikgu dia nak story-mory kan? I'm quite anxious actually...yer laa..si Arissa nie..manja bebenor..kalau di rumah skit2....mummy..skit2 daddy. Merap memanjang...Tapi kalau daddy hantor pi sekolah..sampai jer depan pintu nursery terus di bye..bye nya..dgn serta merta her character berubah kata daddy. Cikgu dia selalu cakap..she's doing well. Mummy mcm tak percaya jer...InsyaAllah..harap2 she's doing well in school & at home too..lapang dada mummy.
Nanti..nak tanya lagi laaa..cikgu2 Arissa cemana nak 'tackle' mood & attitude budak2. Yesterday, daddy cakap..Arissa teacher inform him that don't teach her to count more than ten at one time and teach her only 3 new words per day. The best is to teach her 1-9...she manage..then 9-19 and so on. At her age their brains can absorb till that limits. I see...no wonder la..bila mummy teach Arissa count..1-10...she always missing counting one number. Sorry laaa dear..mummy silap technique.
Aydin...pula sejak dpt pi nursery 2 kali seminggu bukan main buasnyaa..Al maklumlah di nursery kebebasan bermain ..memanjat..dan segala2nya di monitor care-taker. Jadinya mmg hobi dia skrg memanjat ler..Aydin nie tak memilih makanan..suap ler apapun dia makan dgn penuh selera cuma dia nie memilih cikgu. Daddy kata..kalau cikgu/care-taker yg lawa2..cun2..dia nak ..kalo tak lawo..tak nak plak dia ..sampai menangis2...haiii...ikut perangai sapa nie memilih paras wajah..no..no..Aydin. Don't judge the book by its cover...he..he..yg cantik belum tentu berhati mulia..yg buruk kdg kala lebih mulia...tapi di sini (nursery)..cantik ke..tak lawa ke..mereka semua baik hati tolong jaga & tengok2kan dua beradik tuh. They are so much caring & responsible...Daddy punya satisfied with their so called 'service'...siang2 lagi..dok pesan beli & cari christmas card cantik2..nak bagi cikgu2..tanda appreciation
Oh dear..teringat krismas..Subhanallah...dah nak end of the yearrrrrrrrr....How time flies?? Masih banyak kerja perlu dibikinnnnnnnn...

::Autumn Break::
|
|
Kumpul token TheSun bercadang utk ke Blackpool, malangnya penuh, jadi last weekend kami dapat ke Cumbria. Pekan kecil Silloth amatlah nyaman...suasana tepi laut. Tapi kerana cuaca yg amat sejuk..kami hanya menyusuri pantai dengan anak mata dari dalam kereta. Tempat penginapan..amatlah selesa..tidak sangka caravan sebesar ini dgn 3 bilik tidur yg agak 'comel'. Mengapa comel??? He!he! Single bednya..amatlah 'cumil'..Aydin tido sorang pon rasa boleh tiga kali rolling jer Tapi kami berempat tak tido dlm bilik pun, lebih selesa tidur di living hall berhadapan dgn 'unggun api' heater yg panas..
Cuaca tidak molek utk beriadah di luar..makanya kami penuhi dgn aktiviti memasak & makan-makan (alahai gemuks laaaaaa). Malam Ahadnya, Kak Liza & family dijemput utk berdinner bersama..sembang2..borak2..hingga ke supper.
Esoknya..singgah di Windermere for d lake cruise. Sampai di sana kurang lebih jam 2...tapi keadaannya seperti sudah senja...ohhh lupa..sekarang siang makin pendek..malam makin panjang...tanda2 winter sudah menghampiri...InsyaAllah..ada rezeki kita kumpul token lagi...next time kita ke mana yaa???

:: Autumn 2008 ::
|
|
At first mummy ingat nak update gambar raya lagi sbg entry penutup syawal. Tapi memandangkan tahap mengupload ke FP amatttss slow so saki-baki gambar raya upload ke Facebook ajer..
These are our autumn pic. Second autumn bagi Arissa & first autumn for my little boy Aydin. Actually, this morning mummy ada seminar di HUBS. Very interesting seminar presented by Prof. Malcolm Mc Donald from Cranfield Uni. After pick me up from the uni. we went to buy some groceries. Sejuk2 nie stock up groceries kena buat weekly. Highly demand Lapar sokmo! He!he! Baru jer nak selim-melim, after winter surely kebambom!
Since now is a school holiday..dua beradik tuh mmg surely boring terperap kat rumah. So mummy suggest to daddy we bring them to Pearson Park after did d groceries. Walaupun sejuk hingga mencengkam kuku..there still a lot of people leisuring in d park. Tak tahu sejuk deme nie agaknya? Dedaun baru nak turn to 'orange'...and starts to fall down. Memang cantik...I like it very much..very2 much. I don't know why...mummy mmg suka autumn..he!he! ala2 mcm citer Korea dulu tuh..'Autumn in my heart'
Arissa as usual keep chasing & shouting to d pigeons. I know she feels very happy & get excited when d pigeons come & 'kerumun' her. Aydin ushar jerrr..dalam hati sure dia pon tak sabar nak join d club..sabar yer adik..tahun depan bleh join kakak ligan pigeons.
Dek hati sudah terpahat dgn autumn..mummy ajak daddy ke sini lagi bila2 FREE before winter comes

Grand? Yeah..I said so..ha!ha! Why? Majlis sambutan Hari Raya Aidilfitri 08 full house. Bertambah meriah dengan kedatangan warga baru Melayu Hull esp. adik2 bujang undergraduate...ramai sungguh. I can't recall all their names....poor memory..dah tueeeee This time around wakil MSD pon datang..ustaz Erfino. Dolu2 di M'sia..I always tune to IKIM stereo channel listened to his program 'MARI BELAJAR BAHASA ARAB BERSAMA UST. ERFINO JOHARI'..what a memories. Ish..teringat2..setiap pagi sambil menekan pedal minyak kereta memecut di highway Bkt Tambun-Juru sebelum masuk Penang bridge ..ketika itulah program itu 'on'. Dulu mendengar suaranya di corong radio..kali ini dapat melihat wajahnya in person...dalam hati...'ooooooooooo..ini rupa orangnya'..comel! Isterinya pun comel! Bila melihat wajahnya ..bukan hanya sekadar mengingatkan pada program bahasa Arab tuh..he!he! tapi teringat peristiwa2 kena speed trap.. traffic jammed di Penang bridge ( urgghhh disaster!).. 'accident' ( Olie..kalo baca nie jgn gelak nooo) ..errmm.
Dan kali nie juga kami ada ramai photog dengan kamera2 canggih. Niat di hati nak upload semua gambar2 event on that day..tapi too many..so..entry kali nie kira upload gambar2 kami yg terselit dlm camera photog. Thank you Alyne ..capture our pics. esp my todd. Arissa & Aydin berbaju raya itu. Aydin first time berbaju melayu. Thanks to Wan Brahim coz poskan baju melayu utk Aydin.
