Leicester Getaway

Heylu pwetty peeps..Ampun bebanyak coz lama dah tak update this blog.I've been workin like mad..Huhuhu.Coz usually during term time I'm only allowed to work max 20 hours ajer per week.So,now kan I tengah break for Easter Holiday,so I'm allowed to work more than 20 hrs per week.tuh yang pulun keja cam nak mati tuh.This week itself I worked almost 35 hours.Penat memang penat,but since hati dah berkobar nak go for Holiday,kan,so layan ajerlah kerja.

As for our holiday,we all dah corner pergi Leicester pulak,scrap our Bristol and bath hols.Selain room rate yang agak expensive,the journey will take almost 4 hours to and fro..Since cuti just 2 days,I think its not worth it.So,last2 menyimpang pi Leicester.Salah satu sebabnya ialah nak makan KFC..Huhuhu.Haru,kan?Ok,I've book this hotel and the rate is 56 pounds for Family room.

One of the reason I opt for this hotel is the coffee shop,Costa!Hahaha,boleyla breakfast pastries with a nice coffee,kan??The same day we arrived,malam tuh I dah booking movie at Odeon,for this movie below:-

              

Then the next day,in the morning,we gonna bring Kyra to the zoo.Insy kalau ada rezeki nak tengok sealion and penguins show.So,for now itulah plan nya.Hopefully everything goes well.I'm gonna blog bout the trip with some pics later2,kay?As for now,Happy Easter everyone!

Its Officially Off

My Holiday plan is OFFICIALLY OFF!None,nada,Ziltch...Why?Because saya tetiba jadi mata duitan..Huh??No lah,I got a call from my boss that she has a job for me..1 day 2 nights,and they gonna pay me 300 pounds! So,apalagie???I pon actually tawar hati nak go to Bristol because the Easter promotional room is gone.The promotional room in Thistle is 55 pounds for family room per night.now its gone,they've quoted me the new price which is 84 pounds per night.Its not expensive considering its 5 stars,kan.Tapi tulah,dengan car rental lagie,petrol semua..nak habis dekat 500 pounds jugak..and my cuti is just 2 days..Rasa not worth it pulak.

So,we decided to call it off for a timebeing and see how next week..Kalau I boley lari sehari,i akan mintak off from my boss then go somewhere near..maybe to Leicester..for now,no confirmation yet..It depends on my work schedule.Hadoi,dah jadi W.O.R.K.A.H.O.L.I.C pulak dah.What to do..I need money for my Paris holiday.jangan cancel Paris dahla..Menangis tak berlagu aku.By the way,I just reminded my boss yang I akan cuti 1 week in October..so,hopefully she wont put me in the rota la in October.

Ok you all,If i jadi go to Leicester I will let you know.Pray for me yeah..Hopefully I get lotsa money and can enjoy later.As for now..work..work..and work..:)

Mee Kari Saya

Salam semua.Sorry my blog dah start bersawang dah,lama sangat tak maintain..:P.Sememangnya anda sedia maklum dengan my busy schedule Sometimes taklah busy mana,but mood agak 'kureng' to update my blog di tambah dengan kemalasan melanda nak upload pics..iskh..

During lunch time just now,dah planning siap dengan hubby,so,insy if ada rezeki and time permits,we will go to Bristol during our 3 weeks Easter Hols next week.Then,insy on the way tu nak drop by Luton and on the way back,nak drop by Bath,Swindon and Reading.I actually belum booking hotel lagie..Have'nt make up my mind on where to stay yet.Nanti bila dah confirm,I will let you know.

Ok,sehari dua nie,I'm not into rice sangat.Maybe bila I dah penat keje,macam tak berapa lalu nak makan rice.So,instead,i prepared Meehon sup,Mee Goreng,Mee Hailam,Fried macaroni and all time favourite my darling,which is Mee Kari.kat sini,kena buat simple version ajer,coz tauhu kering and kerang is not available.So,make do what we have ajeklah.Tapi,the taste,wallahhhh,tetap TERANGKATTT!

Tak percaya ke?hahahahha,Here it goes.Tengoklah pepuas gambar yang tak seberapa nie ek?

Sapa nak resipi?Angkat tangan!Cubalah kalau ada kelapangan tuh..Coz its very easy,I tak suka buat benda yang too complicated,renyah and time consuming.Malas!So,this is the recipe:-

Mee Kuning

Rempah Kari daging Babas

Bawang Besar,Bawang putih

Daging lembu 300gm

Rempah ratus-Kulit kayu manis,Bunga Lawang,Buah Keras and Buah pelaga

daun kari

air asam jawa

cili boh

santan

Hiasan-taugeh-Cili merah and telur rebus

Cara Menyediakan

Firstly,tumis bawang besar sampai naik bau,then masukkan rempah ratus seperti diatas,juga tumis sampai naik bau..Then masuk daun kari.Bila bawang dah yellow-ish,masukkan 2 sudu kecil cili boh(kalau suka pedas).Then tumis sampai pecah minyak.After that masuk rempah kari and sedikit air.Pls goreng rempah around 5-7 mins,kalau tak,tak sedap..Dah garing rempah,masukkan daging yang dipotong kecil.Then tutup periuk,biar daging empuk selama 10 mins.After that masukkan sedikit air assam jawa and santan.Then garam,gula.Siap!Boleh hiaskan dengan tauhu,taugeh,Cili merah potong and telur rebus..

Selamat Mencuba!

How are you,pretty peeps?I hope you all semua okay.I know some of you mesti busy uruskan anak-anak,husband,occupied dengan kerja or study.Sabar dong..Semua tuh Ibadat...(mode menyedapkan hati sendiri)

I always consider myself a perfectionist.Dari dulu memang 
nak everything goes to what I plan.And i'm a competitive person too.Kalau personality test tuh,kira I nie type A la.Semua benda nak sempurna,cepat and according to my standard.Kalau ada benda slack skets jek,I akan bermuram durja and hide in the closetla for days.But now nie,I've changed..Malas nak serabutkan kepala otak dengan benda2 negative dah.Life is short,why waste it,kan. Now,I nak turn all the negative things happend into positive things. I'm more relax now.Fyi,I memang tengah banyak masalah jugak now nie,but why bother.Kat mana pon akan ada masalah.Kalau dok pikir sampai pecah kepala pon masalah bukan boley settle,kan?

So,mari kita sama-sama mempositifkan minda kita.Fikir positif ajer.Laugh often;as they say"Laughter is the best medicine"(eventho dalam hati tuh menangis). Okay,enuff about it.I baru realize tau,I've been here in UK almost 6 mths already,but rarely cerita pasal England nie.Hari nie kita belajar psl pengetahuan am,okay?Mari kita story bout England.England nie memang la developed country,tapienya the people here is still conservative tau.Tak percaya?

?????????????

I dunno what to put as a title for this post. My mind is torn into all sorta direction..If I do A,then I will hafta sacrifice B,or maybe C. AArrghhhhh.Its so irritating, but I redha,as a normal human being,I can't do everything.So,for now,i'm going to put study as my 1st priority.I'm trying soo hard to stay positive this week. Life has been difficult for me this past 2,3 days.S.E.R.A.B.U.T.Bak kata my friend,hidup pon susah,mati pon susah..Selagi tak tutup mata,selagi itulah masalah akan ader.So,morale of the story is,tiada masalah yang tak boleh diselesaikan and I'm trying myself to stay calm and go with the flow.Rezeki ada dimana-mana:)

Retail Therapy.....

Its Saturday again!How was your weekend,darling?Mine was awesome.Macam biasa, I worked until afternoon today.I love my job..meeting people,helping them,sharing their stories,lending my ears to them.Such a satisfaction for me..Then after work, saya telah menjoli katak..Di mana?Di sini:-

Hehehe,1st time jejak Tk-Maxx sini, as I tatau pon we have Tk Maxx here.The other day I went to the one in Birmingham.Bak kata Nana,TK Maxx memang haunted,hokey.Everytime masuk,mesti ada jer benda yang sangkut nak beli.At 1st,we brought Kyra to Toys R Us. Bagi minah tuh tutup mulut dulu,then baru senang mama dier nak tawaf Tk Maxx,kan?We bought Uno and a computer game.Lihat Kyra,ceria kan pegi Toys store?

Toys R Us sini,masya Allah,besar giler,okey!Adalah sebesar Giant Subang Jaya tuh.Mama Kyra pon rambang mata.At 1st nak beli Scrabble but lupa nak bwk dictionary,so,ambik Uno cards ajer.Then dah puas tengok toys,terus serbu TK Maxx..Kater Tk Maxx berhantu,kan,haruslah membeli sesuatu..huhuhu..Mau lihat??Kejap...Ini dier!

Aper ni?

Tadaaaaaaaaa.....

Introducing my new Aigner sunglass..Haruslah Aigner jugak becoz my favourite handbag is Aigner, kan.I tried Loewe and CK tadi..owh,owh,Armani and DKNY pon try jugak but not as comfy as this one.I love Tk Maxx,dahlah barang cantik-cantik,harga pulak memang BERBALOI.And rambangg mata jugak!My darl dok usha goodyear and adidas driving shoe tadie..but tak beli la today as bini dia dah meroyan nak sunglass kan?? Just wanna show you all the receipt..nope ..I'm not gonna show you all the price,but a clause in the receipt..Nahh,see for yourself..

Now do you know why I like to go to Tk Maxx? Becoz of their 14 days returned scheme.If you don't like what you buy,you can returned em within 14 days..Kotla,us women nie kan kadang time beli memang suka,then balik umah,tetiba raser tak lawa la pulak,kan,then you can bring it back with the receipt and get ur full refund...Suka tak? Ya,saya amat SUKA! Anda bagaimana?

Love and Cherish What You Have..

Did I tell you my darl is trying to quit smoking??Iskh,its been a roller-coaster ride for us since last week.My husband got so sick and cant go to work..almost a week now..So I have to do everything on my own,manage Kyra,my school,my work,the house,the car,bla bla.Frankly speaking,I'm so tired.I do.But,I'm the man of the house now since my darl has been sick..

I pon tatau why mamat tuh tetiba nak stop smoking.For now belum fully quit la,just from 10 cigs per day down to 3 now.So,kira jimat almost 50 quids per month,bersamaan dengan almost rm300 la,which is good la.But his nicotine withdrawal symptoms teruk giler psl he's been smoking almost 25 years.Hadoila laki aku..why la u even start,my dear?

Oh yes,we received a sad news last week..Our friend in Malaysia,my darl ex-colleague in Sime baru kehilangan suami tersayang..loose the battle to rectum cancer.He's 40 plus baru..and their youngest child is around 2 yrs old ajer..kesian sungguh i dengar..Innalillah..After that la,I perasan my darl dah start insaf tau..then tetiba nak try berenti rokok..tapi tulah,sebab dah lama sgt dia dependant to the nicotine,his withdrawal symptoms are nightmares,hokay!Nausea,dizziness,tight chest,chest pain,coughing,insomnia and now short of breath..Takley kuar at all and walk,mesti breathless..I read in the internet that it is an indicator that the lungs started to function normally,tapi tulah,i susah hati if my other half sakit..:(

Since last week after our friends other half passed away,I dok merenung my life.How I always take my husband for granted.Selalu membebel,naik hangin,marah...iskh..tak baik,kan?Benda bila depan mata nie selalu kita tak appreciate,kalau dah takda,baru nak menyesal,kan?hadoila..Its a wake up call for me larr kiranya...and maybe you too!So,I hope all of you will appreciate and cherish ur other half,yer?Coz life is short,kita tak tahu berapa lama dia akan dipinjamkan untuk kita(sob sob)..Therefore,love him unconditionally,till death do you part..to my darlin husband,I'm so proud of you,after 25 years of smoking,you have made this hard and brave decission!I know its hard for you..its hard for me too..but i was so touched that you said you love me more..and you gonna fight it for me..for us..I'm sorry if all this while i ever yelled at you,nag at you and hurt you in any way..I Love You so much..as you COMPLETE Me!
