Sending Off

I get so excited, with a little bit of jealousy when people are going to Umrah/ Haji, because when I went there, I was super young so I barely remembers it. Haih.

Insyaallah, one day, I'll visit God's home again.

My Paksu and family flew off to perform their Umrah yesterday, so Azrin and I sent them off at the airport, also to remind them to pray for me getting a Birkin and Brad Pitt.

Kidding.

Of course, I hope they pray for my health, family, my jodoh and that one day I get to go there again. Amin.

They look so happy!! Who wouldnt be?

Safe flight, safe trip Paksu, Maksu, Sofea and Adam!

*cough* Azrin promised he'll bring me there one day, Insyaallah

Hot as Hell

Have you guys tried the world's hottest chilli?

Well, I have *blows nail*

My father calls it "takda pasal, cari pasal", because we were all racing to the toilet right after haha.

Nadia was telling her experience eating it and I got so excited, I wanted to try too. I was all like "Ngeh, how hot can it be? Its just....chilli"

Boy, was I wrong........

First bite...

*after 3 seconds*    

"Not that hot what..."

* 5 seconds*

#&^%$#$%^&*!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tears falling down like waterfall, lips burning like crazy, started cursing like mad. Oh dear god.

After a tiny piece, I ordered a cake to kill off the spicy-ness. Shafiqah was about to faint, Azrin went deaf for a while, Nadia looked like she was abused.

Crazy!

...but I'm proud to say, I have tasted the Hottest Chilli in the world :)

...nope, never eating it again. Ever!

Three Adults One Kid

We're spoiling Little Sofia a little too much. She wants "aishshkimm", she gets it. She wants "lopop", she gets it.

Even when we adults just got back from work, all tired, Little Sofia wakes up from her evening nap and says "shaaii, piiishhh" (slide, please), we'll be starting our engines before she finishes saying please.

....and so she one evening she came up to Azrin, Shafiqah and I begging us to bring her to play slide.

*starts engine*

*reached playground*

Happy Little Pei!

Oh my god, its so tiring to take care of one kid. With her running everywhere, climbing up and down, screaming....

Well, we thought we brought one kid to the playground.....

but we were wrong.....

*smacks forehead*

Broke Down

Went for a short trip to Penang again last weekend. Since there's that rally thing in Penang we decided to start our journey at 5.30am (Sofia and Hazren managed to wake up this time!), and the whole way there......

Snoozefest. Poor Hazren had to drive all the way.

Anyway, when we were deciding whose car to bring, Azrin's car's aircond is not working. Hazren went and bang his car to a pole for no reason and we took my car to Penang a few weeks ago so it might break down in the middle of the journey, therefore we thought Sofia's car would be the best bet.

Boy were we wrong.

The battery died. Twice! Somewhere we dont even know anyone!

Haiyoh.

Next time we'll just fly, no?

Bingo's Bday

I was one day late (because on her birthday everyone was busy getting angry on the election results), but I surprised her at work with a slice of birthday cake!

Me: Boo, what if I light up the candle, and she's not in her room?
Azrin: Ok, I'll pretend to go to the toilet and peek into her room

"She's in!"

"Happy Birthday Bing!!! Make a wish!"

.....and so Fara and I ended up gossiping while sharing the cake I bought for her. We malays call it buruk siku. Haha.

Happy birthday bingo! We shall partay tonight. See you later. Hee!

Review: Long Weekend

Azrin and I haven't had a movie date night in so long!! Probably more than a year. I don't even know what were we busy with...

Checked our schedule, found one night where we were both free, I quickly booked the tickets online, grab my dear boyfriend and off for our movie night. Hehe.

I love love love ghost movies. Especially the ones from Thailand, Korea, Japan, those kinds. I think hollywood's creepy movies are not so...creepy. Except Paranormal Activity haiyoh!

This time we watched Long Weekend, a Thai movie.

First of all, Thai's male actor....... *wipes drool*

Even when they kena rasuk, seriously...underwear model alert.

Overall, the movie was just so-so. The storyline was average, nothing special. Annoys me that some parts (usually the crucial moments!), the subtitle dissapears. Like, hello!!

Ratings: 6.5 / 10

Squid Eggs

Went for a day trip to Penang yesterday with Azrin and his brother, Ashraf to visit their grandmother who's ill. Get well soon, tok mama! I'm never going for a day trip to Penang even again. It was so tiring, even though we had three drivers in the car (although the whole way there, Ashraf was snoring away with his bantal busuk), it's such a long way, its crazy!

It was sad to see Tok Mama, I did not talk much just so I won't cry and she looks tired. Thank god, she's getting better, alhamdulillah.

......I got my favourite Nasi Kandar before we headed back to KL....

Nasi Kandar Beratur! Apparently the best nasi kandar now is nasi kandar jelutong but they open at night so didn't get to try.

Its ok, I was already happy I got my 'teloq sotong'.

Drool!

I was chanting "please have telur sotong, please have telur sotong" all the way there and God answered my prayers.

Unfortunately, didn't get to have my favourite cendol and mee goreng...so have to go to Penang again! Soon. Maybe after the election.

Happy voting people!

Sipping Gold

On the day Sofia went off for her honeymoon, Sarah arrived from her long Japan trip (sheesh, jet-setting friends).

No, she did'nt buy me no kimonos.

Went to visit her at home and kacau her unpack (just in case she hid some kimonos in there haha)..

Sarah: Cik P, you should take care of your health. I'm gonna serve you green tea.

Urgh. Here comes Dr. Lalat.

"OMG ITS REALLY GREEN!!!"

I kepit my nose, held my breath and was preparing to gulp it down just to make her happy. Surprisingly, it was so yummy! Seriously, it's even yummy-er than my daily drink, teh o ais.

Its sweet, with a hint of seaweed. Oh, you see that little dots in the green tea?

They're gold flakes! Like real gold! I feel rich already! Apparently its good for your skin, so I drank till the last drop hoping I would glow like Lady Gaga.

*fingers crossed*

Your Honour

Friday was a vary memorable day in Shafiqah and I'm honoured to be part of it.

She was called to the bar!!

I was so nervous for her, and with everyone being so serious in the courtroom doesn't help either. All the garang faces, everything in black and white. We need to splash a bit more colour around, no?

They were giving speeches, and their 'masters' putting on a robe for all these new lawyers, while the judge declares you as a lawyer, officially. Pretty cool! Thank god the judge was funny and sacarstic or it would have been quite boring.

"If I were to be a lawyer, my raincoat thingy would be pink." -Me

Congratulations, Fi!! You're now officially a lawyer, after years of stressing yourself studying for years. I'm so so so proud of you. You're going to be an ah-mayzing lawyer!

Ain't nobody mess with me now, legally! Hee.

Ten Minutes

Its 8.30 am and I just got back from sending dear Sofia and Hazren to the airport for their honeymoon.

Their flight was at 7am..

Azrin and I were outside their house at 5.15 am (yes I woke up at 5am on a Sunday for my bestie), calling them kebejillion times.

At 5.50 am..

Sofia: Err. He-lo?
Me: OI! R U STILL FREAKING SLEEPING?! I'VE BEEN OUTSIDE FOR HALF AN HOUR!
Sofia: Oh.

I swear to god, I would've gone up and knock on their door til it breaks, but I need a damn pass to do so.

They were late and they could have check-ed in online the night before, but no.......I guess they were getting, err, busy.

Haha.

I know y'all just got married and stuff, but sleep early lah! Haiyoh. Haha.

We got to the airport 10 minutes before her boarding time and they jumped off the car and ran off ala Amazing Race!

Btw, they went for their honeymoon without shower-ing. HAHAHAHA.

Have fun guys!!!!

Love at First Sight

You know that feeling they describe in novels or that moment you see in movies when the girl and the boy first lay eyes on each other, and they have that knot in their stomach, goosebumps all over, and everything around you just....stops?

Exactly how I felt when I saw this.

I think I died and went to Chanel heaven.

So gorgeous, I would starve for this. Maybe not. But still...!!

Won't it look perfect on a hantaran dulang???

*blush*


*bats eyelashes*

Teacher

Got a phone call one day from bestfriend, who's all the way in Japan. Thought she missed me or something...but she needed a favour.

Boo.

She better bring back some fabulous kimonos for me.

She needed me to teach her sister accounts.

I don't understand know why, because clearly she knew about all the failing I went through in Uni. Wrong person, Lalat.

....but since I'm an awesome friend *flips hair*, I dug through boxes of accounting book, put on my teacher glasses and head to Starbucks for some Accounting 101.

My student for today, ladies and gentlemen...

Qurie!!

She wanted to record the whole thing and I got so embarrased so I told her to turn it off. Seriously, I felt so....pressured. Haha. Thank god I'm not a singer.

I hope I did teach her something, because I think I was more into my Banana Chocolate cake and coffee than the Income Statement.

Not a very good teacher, guys.

I can cross "Lecturer" out my Career List.

"Sha, after this you have to teach Fawwaz accounts when he comes back"

Hell no.

Spoilers

Well, maybe it's that time of the month......

........like OhEmGee!

Sad. Happy. Excited. Scared. Oh, Christian Grey.

Ok, I've finished all three books. Now what?

Can start blogging again haha.

Sofia & Hazren's Reception

If you must know, I can't stand heat. I'm princess-y like that. But for my best friend, I would load up some face tissue and hand fan, and brave through the Port Dickson heat. Anything for my best friend. Unless it involves lizards...that's a whole different story.

1. Sofia's reception.

Grand. Gorgeous. Apam Balik.

Seriously. Apam Balik! The nipis kind- my favourite, and they make it live. I wanted to ask for 'extra jagung', extra crispy, but the pakcik behind me did not look happy. Pfft. Party pooper. Oh and cendol too! Perfect!!

Yeah yeah here comes the bride whatever...*munch on apam balik*. Hehe kidding!

I went up the pelamin and asked "Eh how was you malam pertama...?" *nudge*

Busybody, sorry.

2. Hazren's reception.

I love kampung wedding!! Its so traditional, people are super friendly and helpful..

Sofia kept saying "Bing, kipas bing!!Kuat sikit kipas!!" while controlling her smile as she was walking towards the pelamin

-______-"

....and OHMYGOD the food! Seriously, one of the yummy-est Kuah Lemak I've ever tasted. Sorry, no picture, I was busy eating *licks finger*.


We had to head back to KL early because Azrin had exams the next day.


....anyway, Congratulations again, Po!!!

Btw, since the wedding, I hav'nt seen this two lovebirds. Tsk tsk.
