#bingbahagia

It was a beautiful weekend since our last "makcik" got married! *fireworks*

On Friday was her nikah, Azrin and I rushed from work, I did curse a few cars on the road, hoping to not miss her "aku nikahkan kau.." moment. Once we got around her house area, we got lost. Happens every single freaking time!

We were going back and forth.

"Is it this house? But this one no pool"
"Eh her house got big swing outside lah"
"Takkan la, during nikah tak switch on the lights kut? Maybe buat dekat belakang"
"Eh not this one kut, yang ni got chinese word all over"

Yes, at last we found the house with khemah outside. Should have look for a house with a tent 30 minutes before right? *smacks forehead*

Just in time for her nikah. And food. Delicious food!

The next day was their reception. Did not want to be late again so we were one of the first ones there. Hehe.

It was like a Sunway reunion for me, and Azrin got to see his MRT ex-colleagues. Yes, Fara and I studied at the same place and Azrin worked with her together before, but Azrin and Fara also went to the same primary school or something. See, we are all in the same circle.

So fun meeting everyone, updating what is everyone up to, babysitting everyone's babies (only Lilly and Ruqqie want me haha) and of course the bride and groom- Gorgeous! Everything was just perfect!

To Bahagia & Fara, congratulations! I am so happy for you guys. Makcik, you know we have had our err, ups and downs, but let me tell you, I know you are super super happy and I am glad you have found your prince charming who can take care of you. Have fun on your honeymoon, guys!

Congrats prom queen and hubby!

Gotta Work B**ch

..so here's the big story!

Since I met Azrin a decade ago, I told him I want to meet Britney at least once in my life, you know like my life dream! I had all her albums, wanted to be her as I was growing up and my poor brother had to listen to her music all day as I blasted her songs next door. The amount of "A"s I had to get in my exams just so I get her CDs and other Britney stuff. If you think about it, Britney was the source of my straight As haha.

So when I found out about her touring around asia, I panicked. I mean, I was going to see Britney! Time to plan.

Plan A- Bangkok. A day before raya (malam raya). Told Daddy and Stepmom about it.
Stepmom : Adik, orang malam raya dok bertakbir, awak nak pergi mengadap si Britney. I don't know what to say lah. Up to you
Daddy: *looks away and did not talk to me for the rest of the night*
We still planned to go, but then it was sold out less than an hour after the launch. Tak sempat.

Plan B- Hong Kong. Sold out while I was signing up before purchasing the tickets. Boo.

I was getting depressed. Last choice was Singapore but Azrin had something on and could not make it.

Suddenly, they opened another show in Bangkok, a day before the original show. Purchased it immediately without thinking or asking anyone. Hehe.

We made it! The place was huge! Yes, Britney was really tiny, but oh well, we had so much fun! Azrin and I were competing who would know more songs of hers, I must say we both knew about 98%. That's because the 2% were her new songs haha!

I felt so underdressed because people that came were dressing up as Brit, like in the red cat suit or in a school uniform and two ponytails.

Azrin : I should have came in a stewardess uniform, more cantik than everyone kan?

Errr. Should I be worried?

I was wondering why were there "older" people there watching, dancing and singing throughout the concert, but then I realised oh yeah..we are from THAT era.

Heh.

Loved it.

Next? Aiming for Beyonce or Lady Gaga.

Wisdom

One kind of pain that I can't stand- toothache. You know, the one that you can feel up to your brain, makes you feel like pulling out your hair every 10 seconds, and sometimes your eyes would feel like it'll just pop out. Miserable.

I felt that and I was crying, screaming and scolding Azrin like a crazy lady. I scolded him for driving to fast, too slow and because he langgar the speed bump. What my genius husband did was he set up an appointment with a dentist for me. Haha.

He said it was because he kesian seeing me in pain and that he loves me. I'm sure.

Off we went to the dentist yesterday (boy did he drive really fast and the the radio was on super loudly, I wonder why), of course it was the whole wisdom tooth shannanigs. Yes, I am a wise lady now *bows*. 

They had to cabut a tooth out, the horror! It was not painful since they poked that thing that made my mouth numb and all..but the sound! Haiyo. Felt like I was in Saw. I had to show my macho-ness and gentleness because the dentist was cute! Haha! Yes Azrin followed me in the surgery room *rolls eyes*

Alhamdulillah everything went well. Had to shove this thing in my mouth for the whole day. So uncomfortable. So close to swollowing that thing (since it was so far behind- towards the throat).

Raya 2017

So how's raya, everyone? I see people in gorgeous colour-coordinated raya clothes all over facebook for a few days. Happy!

Since it was a long holiday, everyone have been travelling south, north, east and west to balik kampung but Azrin and I were excited to go around KL to everyone's house. We tell people we are "orang KL", but we talk to each other with super pekat nothern accent and someone will always ask "tak balik kampung ke?"

"Tak, makcik. Kami orang kl. Speaking malay also little little je. You know, lots of mix"

Oh I'm so funny.

Here are some pictures for our Raya. We started our morning going around Azrin's family and headed to my family. Couldn't stop eating. Amazing!

Again, Selamat Hari Raya everyone! Yes, it is going to be a whole month of Raya. Now is our time to see family, friends, neighbours, everyone! maaf zahir batin!

Burp.

Height Test

One thing I realised about Azrin is that he will sleep throughout ALL the flights we've been on together. You can imagine how bored I must have been right? The moment he fasten his seatbelt, he will shut his eyes, right to the point where the flight attendant/pilot says "welcome home".

Haih.

So we are going to HK in August and he have been bugging me to go to Disneyland but I said "one condition, you must naik any rides I want". Of course, he went pale. Haha. I decided to test something on our flight back from Bangkok last week.

"B, you can't sleep if you want to go Disneyland"

Seriously, as we were taking off, his palms were sweating like crazy, he was asking me if the flight was ok, if we were going to crash, if the plane was going to terbalik every FIVE minutes. It was fun scaring him at first, but I ignored him after half an hour.

-________-"

He gave up so I guess no Disneyland.

Anyway, it was a short trip for us to Bangkok. We have both never been there. Three days, did not do anything much.

Many said "oh you look Thai". Haha.

...ok to be continued!

SHR

Super tired!

Touched down from Bangkok yesterday evening, rushed home to get the house clean a bit for raya (it was ok when we left, but Bentencho had the house all to herself for three days), ordered in something for buka puasa and head to Daddy's house to prove to him that his daughter will be celebrating raya here with him and not with the pop princess.

-____________-"

....and now its Raya!

Selamat Hari Raya from us. Maaf zahir dan batin.

Let the month of open houses begins!

Hehe.

Setahun Sekali

How's Ramadhan so far, guys?

I've got to spend with my girls last week, amazing! Honestly, I am not a big fan of buffet (anymore). Usually, one meal is enough for me and just a few desserts can make me happy for the night. Signs of ageing, I must say. I mean even Azrin was able to clear up the buffet table, could only a couple plates of rice (haha!) and a few slices of brownies plus some more other desserts. Shame on him. 

So when we were planning on the buka puasa, the girls and I agreed on a non-buffet meal, since we are all makciks already. Well, ended up with Sarah got a deal somewhere for a cheap buffet. Heh. Sold.

Arabic food? Buffet? We were all aiming for the lamb for the whole day! No, no lamb! Sofia was this close to punching the chef. 

Fara and I were exploding after the first plate of rice and we were wondering how are we going to make our money worth the whole buka puasa. Azrin and Sarah were going on cream caramel marathon the whole night (diabetes alert!). 

Amazing time to be with eveyone and yes, Fara is getting married soon!! *dances*

Addictive

Ramadhan is here. One thing I like to do especially early in the morning on the weekends before going out for sahur- my Honey Koko Flakes! Kinda a little project Azrin and I started.

Yes, I have been selling them for the past five years for fasting month and raya. Alhamdulillah, they have been saying that its yummy. I hope they are not lying (well, they order repeatedly for the next four years!).

I remembered I think it two years ago, Azrin and I got too many orders and it was already two days before raya- oh it went cray in the kitchen!

So now, please order earlier people!

Come on! RM16

...and no, one is not enough! Believe me.

Thirty

 

Him : B, My top three favourite kind of food?

Me : Italian. Japanese.

Him : Correct. One more?

Me : Mexican!

Him : No.

Me : My cooking?

Him : Err..

So of course to celebrate his 30th birthday, I decided to get him his italian food for our buka puasa last night. 

I don't know how he can break fast with all the super creamy pasta (probably why he puked when we got home, but its normal for Azrin to puke after buka puasa. Every single time).

As we were heading out of the restaurant, he passed me my purse..

Me : Why did you take my purse

Azrin : I didn't want you to pay, so I hid it.

Me : Haha. No need susah susah. I wasn't planning to pay pun.

Azrin : Tu la..

He is so lucky to have a wife like me, no? Gahaha. 

Well, I let him have his Italian food, so I thought that was already the gift.

Anyway, Happy Birthday B! You are already 30! You should be proud to have a twenty-something wife for a couple more years. We go lepak lepak any jazz club after raya ya? Hehe. Love you!

Dim Yum

Been sick for a couple of weeks, and I passed the virus to Azrin its like a sneezing battlefield here at home.

Alhamdulillah, Getting better.

It was stepmom's birthday last week and we decided to bring her to have dimsum, something her husband will never bring her to. Tsk tsk. See how Daddy looks like when there are dimsums in front of him hehe.

Abang was in charge of ordering, as usual he will order enough for ten families to eat. We had to pinjam a few tables next to us to put the food. I tell you, I was already exploding, but the waitress kept saying "the fish will be here soon" and "the squid is here". Never ending.

...everyone just said "its ok, Ajin ada". Yes, he might be the smallest in my family, but his job is always to finish all the food. Unfortunately we were not feeling well that time, so he kept nudging me with a "B, cannot la, nak terkeluar dah!" everytime someone push food to him. Haha.

We all could not move after all that food, until I said "Eh, but we have the cake!" and the just gave me the look. Its ok, we will go karaoke, to "digest" the food, and cut the cake then. Genius.

Happy Birthday Maktiru! Hope you had a blast.

But Fun

How was your long weekend, everyone?

Mine? Fun. Tiring, but fun. Seriously. One, I wanted to cry when I woke up for work this morning, hoping that it was another day of holiday. Two, I missed a meeting because I thought it is Monday. Wake up, Sharifah.

Started with a day trip on Saturday to the south for a cousin's wedding. Stuck in traffic. The traffic was so crazy I was just hoping that there will still be food when Azrin and I reach wedding (since we were already in a bad hungry mood!)

Reached the wedding. Ate our feelings. Met everyone. Went back to KL before it got dark (because both Azrin and I can't drive if its dark).

Congrats Syazana and hubby!

Sunday. Azrin wanted to do a housewarming get together for his family (because my family is still in Johor and his family is going to US soon). Woke up early to prepare food *ehem, puts apron on*

Took almost half a day to prepare food *pats back*. I'm sure nobody believed that I cook it myself and I was quite sure Sarah came with diarrhea mediation (haih!) but I made....

*bows* 

Thanks Maktiru!

Amazing time with Azrin's family. No pictures because some of the boys were watching F1 and football while the rest were too busy playing scrabble (which Azrin and I lost!). 

Azrin and I were so tired by then but Monday we had some baking to do. We have a few orders to complete, and short of a few things, so had to go around KL in the morning, and spent the whole afternoon and evening baking.

Want to order? Hurry! RM16 only!

So. Bloody. Tired.

Weekend, please come quick.
