This is the continuation of the above posting.We stayed in the hotel's family room for 3 days and 2 nights for RM 170.00/night.A 21 inch television with astro subscription in my case Disney Channel is available a satisfaction for my daughter.One queen bed and a single bed.The room is spacious enough.The bathroom is basic with basin and hot water shower available.We arrived at 2.00pm with a quick check-in.At 3.00pm me and my sweet daughter were already in the swimming pool enjoying ourselves.At 5.00pm we were in Teluk Cempedak camping while picnicking at the beach.The waves are huge so of course swimming is not allowed.So my sweet daughter actually dives the white sands.No problem.She played the kite and oh she's just so happy and enjoying herself while me and hubby just sat on the mat enjoying the cold sea breeze, sound of the huge waves and looking at the blue ocean gave me that good peaceful feeling.Oh...how nice and calming.

School Holiday

2014-03-31T19:07:00.002+08:00

School holiday is around the corner again.This time around we are making a just simple and non costly holiday getaway.I chose Kuantan, Pahang.The capital city of Pahang.Kuantan is a very safe place to go if you choose the correct spot. I choose to stay in Hotel Seri Malaysia because it's very convenient and suits my simple life style.

Good day everyone. Been quite long since my last writing. I am sure not many are following but I will just write. If you come across my blog please stay and read. You'll find that I write from the heart.I haven't been writing because I had not the time to spare. Daughter is growing up and since she's my one and only I don't want to miss a single of her growing up process. She's such a nice girl sometimes I think of her as a precious gift from heaven. She's understanding and supportive. Though her age is only 8 but I do think she's matured than that. She knows when to sleep and wake up at the appropriate time. When I had difficulties she's there trying to support me with her smart words. My daughter I pray for your health, wealth and future.

This is my very favourite song that I sing along with my guitar.I have an acoustic guitar but am not that good.I play for my own satisfaction with limited number of tabs.Sometimes only once a month.

At last a jacuzi instead of a pool

I really love swimming since childhood.Everytime I finish school the first thing that comes into my mind is swimming.Even when I go back to my village I usually ended up in the rver playing with my cousins.So...so exciting I can't count how many times I nearly drowned with water filling my nose till the 'brain'. As my new home has none of these water features I planned to place a small swimming pool at home.I got so many feedbacks. mostly n

Piano teacher resign

2012-10-06T13:09:00.000+08:00

I forgot to share that my daughter's piano teacher resigned at a sudden. Maybe he got a better offer.We didn't get to buy any present or thank him personally but teacher David if you come across this blog thanks for your guidance all these while.My daughter's class is going to be postponed for two months and Iam wondering if they can catch up for the JMC Primary 4 examination.It should be the most important one because it will be handled by not their own teacher as in primary 1,2 and 3.Headmater said to wait for substitute from Yamaha Music Kuala Lumpur.

I finally agreed to adopting rabbits as new family members to my family.Three of them.I fair one we named Apin as upin and ipin descendant my daughter exclaimed.The dark one we called Arang which means charcoal and the brown furred we gave the name Gurur from the word garu because it is always scratching it's body maybe feeling itchy.

What a tough day

These 2 days had been quite tough for the old me.Now I realise when you reach 40 nothing is the same as the 20's.Fortunately my hubby and me are about the same
age.Only 4 days difference,mind you.

I believe we are experiencing the same progress in adulthood so he should be able to understand.However no words can actually express my appreciation to him.Though he never said pity you to me but his actions are expressing the sympathy and empathy.Thanks a lot but I know he's not interested in reading my blog because I wrote in English.I find my self express words better in English.

While I'm blogging,all of my family members are doing their own things in their laptops.So nobody is feeling left out.

Cameron Highlands, Malaysia

2012-09-14T09:11:00.001+08:00

8 September 2012
That fine morning we headed to Cameron Highlands. A very smooth journey with nothing to see but the fresh jungle of Pahang Darulmakmur. Arrived at around 10.00am. Oh, it's really cold ( not freezing though ) here at the highlands compared to the hot weather downlands. Is there any term as such? Downlands?

We went on search for the most affordable and comfort hotel. After a half an hour search we decided to stay at the Parkland Hotel. For RM 150.00 per night we get a single bed and a double bed. The room is spacious but quite basic since no electric kettle is provided. Need to get hot water from downstairs. Ooops....no elevator too. We stayed at the second floor. I asked my hubby to request for lower floor but not available. I ended up oooh ....ahhh...while climbing the stairs. Mind you I am overweight, okay.

My daughter is really excited. We couldn't wait for the food and strawberry haunting afterwards. Fresh strawberry dipped with chocolate is the best. Fortunately this time around, the strawberries are really sweet and aromatic. The last time we came, it wasn't this sweet. Flowers are also blooming. It really is soothing all my aches from the outside till the inside. I got a very nice feeling. My hubby and daughter also seemed to experience the same.

We may not afford going to the cold countries like Australia or Korea yet but Cameron Highlands is just fine. Don't expect window shopping or anything like going to parks here. The only thing here is simplicity and peace of mind. So if you're ' packed ' in the head, pack your bag with warm clothings and head to Cameron Highlands.

Mmmm, a new month in the year of 2012. I am turning 40 and everything seemed better to me. Not better in term of living and anything physical though. I am now more firm with my decisions and and can see more of my future.

      My living is still simple but there are fillings in as my daughter is growing up. I am now renovating my home but bit by bit as I don't have that much money. It was hard decision but after 10 years everything needed mends here and there. Better do something about it before it's too late and I may need to spend more.

    Fasting month is coming. My contractor started the project way too late, so I think we might only be able to finish half of it . I wonder why I always start a project late like this. I guess I ' m afraid that I might spend too much and always make a postpone till it's already in the middle of the year. Rich people can just say and it be done but me, oh, no, should I, should I. Sometimes spending money makes me feel guilty but giving it to family members or my parents is satisfying.

My daughter's first day to school.

2012-01-06T10:05:00.000+08:00

Hi! I am on leave today. I never thought sending my child on her first formal education could be so emotional. Yes, sending her to a new place and leaving her to adjust to the new surrounding, I hope she can cope with it. But, she was so calm. Maybe because I have been talking about it for months. She's kinda been looking forward to it. As usual, the father is so calm. Maybe I am over excited, I remember the sleepless nights I had days before that first day.

The teachers are all set as they seemed to carry out their duty. I am just curious that's all. Well, compared to my school, mine was much better. But despite of the lack of many facilities, it's all depending upon the child itself. I thought, the school in the 20's should be better of, but, well, we are living in a small district, we should be grateful then. No school playground and a very basic canteen. In my opinion, a school canteen should sell many kinds of food in an interesting presentation to make kids love to have food. Healthy food can come in many forms.

A beautiful water fountain with flowers arranged so beautifully is also a good source of inspiration for children. They would be very proud of their school just like I did. I love my school so much but I have to move school because my father got transferred. in my middle Form 2. After that another 3 schools. So the first school is the longest length of attendance. But my memories in the old school will never diminish. The teachers, environment, the library, canteen, classmates, schoolmates and playground. I hope that my child will also get to love her new school and everything that comes with it as I did before. To my daughter, mama wish you all the best. Just go on with your life and cherish it. May Allah Bless You.

chicken pox

2011-10-14T19:15:00.000+08:00

CHICKEN POX.......
At this age of 39 , I am infected with chicken pox!!!!!!! I am surprised. I got cold fever for 3 days before the blisters actually showed themselves.

My hubby got infected when he was in Form 4 so, he's already familiar with it. Friends thought that it was because of my diabetics and I myself thought that I was too exhausted travelling last week. So many wild thoughts and the caused turned themselves up only after 3 days. My body aches suggested that I might be pregnant, said one of my friends. Oucch, can't be, I said. Am having my period.

These past few days I had been complaining to hubby of not having enough quality time together, so he suggested that I was thinking too much it affected me physically.So, early next day, I showed up at the Outpatient Department and was ' gifted ' 3 days medical certificate.

To tell the truth, the symptoms were much more painful than the infection itself. My body aching everywhere and it really is a big problem to sleep that I have to take pain killer and paracetamol for my cold fever. I have to mention it as cold fever because it make me shivers. At work, I actually went to the store to keep out of the cold. Lying uncomfortably on the floor. I didn't want to inform my friends, because I usually ended explaining this and that. I'd rather get a good and quiet rest.

The biggest matter is how to protect my little daughter from this infection. Soon, I was explaining the disease to her and drawed borders between us. This means she has a distance limit towards me. Oh, I hope she'll be protected.

The blisters is now all over my face and upper body parts. Dr. Ita provided me with anti-viral which I should swallow every 4 hours. 4 tablets/4 hours. Now my body is not aching but the blisters gives a very itchy sense. I already cut my nails and am really having the biggest task in my life and that is ------- preventing myself from scratching!!!!!!!!!!!!

My face looks like a toad's skin! Very well. I will give you more details later on. I should rest. Today hubby takes my place accompanying my daughter to her piano class.

It's only September

2011-09-27T23:23:00.000+08:00

Gosh! It's only September and my leave is only 5 days in balance. I had really been a busy and unhealthy these days. A few medical certificates too. I don't know if I can keep it up till end of December to register my little girl to Primary School.

I am gaining weight as well. My, oh my! What am I suppose to do? Hopeless me but still I feel good about myself. I am proud with my hubby and daughter. There are many times that I tend to loose grip but my hubby still keeps as calm as he is and to think about it, it comforts me afterwards. He is so stable that he never seemed to react agressively towards me. 15 years of marriage and he is still that same man I married, calm and just so kind.

Maybe he was meant to compliment my emotional being. My daughter is part of him, anyway. I hope and pray that she will grow up being more like her dad. Sometimes I wonder, how he can cope life so easily. Only one thing bothers me. He seldom burst into laughter ( the calm sight ) and it's very hard to hear him talking badly about anything.

Don't say I am just trying to say that he's the best, no. I am talking about the good side of him.

My daughter's favourite bike.

Uhuh......Kuala Lumpur.................

2011-07-19T21:19:00.000+08:00

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
What is there to say?Last week I went to Kuala Lumpur on Saturday. Pity I forgot to book ourselves a hotel room. I ended up roaming the capital city looking for the perfect and affordable room. All of the hotels are packed. Putra Hotel, Vistana, Plaza, First Business Inn, Grand Continental, Prescott Inn and etc. Finally, at 2.00 pm, we drived out of Kuala Lumpur and ended up shopping in Bentong, Pahang. We stayed in Kristall Inn and have to make up in a big family room, the only room available.

But mind you, if you have a big budget, this might not apply to you. As for me, I am not willing to spend more. The hotel room in Bentong is cheaper compared to Kuala Lumpur. For the same price, the room would be much smaller, but, of course in the heart of a big city with all the amneties you can wish for.

When we arrived in Kuala Lumpur, we were stucked at Chow Kit Road. The shopping complex, Sogo is only around 150 metres away but because of the jammed road, we can only wait. I think we were there around 3 hours before I can actually set my foot on Sogo. People are so packed too like sardines in the can. I didn't expect this. Been to Kuala Lumpur so many times already. Maybe because it's Kuala Lumpur Festival and shopping fair.

No matter if it's inflation or whatever, Malaysians are still not that poor. If you can't afford shopping in Berjaya Times Square, you can go to Bukit Bintang, if you still can't afford, go to Sogo, still expensive, go to Masjid India. Still expensive, go to Chow Kit. Ha...ha.......Still expensive, go to the RM 2.00 store where everything will cost you the flat price RM 2.00. What I want to express here is, nobody is left out to do their shopping. If you really don't have the money to spend, just go for window shopping. no harm. Totally free.

New school bag

2011-07-07T23:10:00.001+08:00

Hi! It's been a long time since my last visit to my own blog. Not being well to write anything. Mind blocked. But, I am still sane, okay. Maybe, just too tired. Hubby working most weekends making me kinda stress a bit. Trapped around this town most of the weeks, makes me really exhausted to work in the weekdays. So, lucky of you out there who still get to enjoy your weekends, I mean both Saturday and Sunday.

Back to talking about my daughter's class. The class is rather intensive and really challenging because my daughter refuse practising at home. Too much activity at home like watching cartoon, playing her nintendo and reading comics, she just can't get enough of everything.

Today, she came back from kindergarden rather sad. Well, troughout yesterday and this morning, she's been talking about her school's drawing competition today. She said she will get a bag as a present. When she entered the car in the evening, her eyes were filled with tears. I wander what was the matter. Ooops! She didn't get the bag she had been talking about. I persuaded her and explained that maybe she didn't colour nice enough to get the present from her teacher. Only two students got the bag and both were her best friends.

I told her it's okay. Mummy can buy you a bag similar to that. So, this evening we had been searching for the particular bag. Fortunately we managed to find one. She became a happy girl all over again. Children. I remember during my school days, I used to sew back my torn old bag, just because I want to help my father save money.

Diabetis Mellitus

2011-04-23T18:32:00.000+08:00

Everyone, watchout! I am not prepared to cope with this disease. The moment the Medical Officer informed me, it felt like being hit by a big stone. It also felt like being poked by a sharp knife deep inside my heart. I felt like everything is over for me. I know this disease but when it infected me, I felt like it's nothing familiar. It's like being robbed by a burglar. All those things especially eating agenda became a fearsome activity to me plus my husband's spying eyes trying to protect me from side effects.

Oh! I need someone to hear me out. Taking the medication is a challenge and burden to me. I don't know how to control my diet plus the medication. If I eat less could it effect my glucose level which had been controlled by the tablets? I can't understand how to balance the medication with my food intake.

I had a very bad week last week. I felt so sick which I can't explain how it exactly felt. My eyes felt blotted. My fingers painful and my head felt stupid and confuse, not headache. Today, I feel vey bad, too. My eyeball felt like it's going out and my head feel silly. My body is strengtful but without a steady head I can't think and perform my household tasks. So as at work. I am not sick but without my head working properly, I can't concentrate. I remember that Monday evening at work. The test which I usually finish in only half an hour, actually took me 3 hours because I can't concentrate and need to shut my eyes every few minutes.

I am learning. Maybe I need time to accept the fact because most of my senior family members are diabetic patients as well. What I would really have problem with is the good and delicious food......Ouch......I love food! Enough for today. My eyes are painful.

Japan Battered By Tsunami

2011-03-12T17:17:00.001+08:00

Tsunami again? It happenened in Japan yesterday. The tragedy causes lost of lives and nearly everything was swept away. Cars, houses and anything on the earth battered by it. I pity the people of Japan. I hope they will gain back what they've lost in a short time because they are popular with their strong will power.

Nobody can go against God's rulling upon this earth. Everything that occurs is a reminder to us humans that there's a limit in whatever we do. Our mother earth is getting older and matured. I hope and pray that everything will recover because we are all just humans with love and destiny within us. Fortunately, my new friend, Kana's family in Osaka is not involved.

Yamaha Music School

2011-03-06T23:34:00.001+08:00

Hi, how are you? New to my blog? I hope it's friendly enough. Just a simple mum with a big heart.

Quite busy these days as my daughter is growing smarter these days, her activities are of variety that I can't really express how proud I am to be her mum. She's very active and always in need of my attention.

Seeing that she's so active, I made the decision to send her to Yamaha Music School. Not that I want her to be a musician, but just to give her something to enjoy and appreciate. I want her to love music and see life's beautiful colours through music.

It's been 3 months since we've attended the Junior Music Class and I can see how she enjoys it. The only thing is, it took us an hour journey for the class. I finish work at 5.00pm and later pick her from kindergarden. Then straight home to change clothes, take dinner and be prepared for the 7.30pm class every Friday as a routine.

I admit that we are sometimes too tired to open our mouth to sing but we gain strength 15 minutes afterwards when we start to enjoy the class. My daughter sometimes is too shy to sing aloud but teacher David said never mind. The JMC is for them to listen and enjoy music but still she have to practice at home.

I have an acoustic Yamaha guitar but I can't play. I can only stream the simple chords. I hope one day, I can actually play it well. I love music. I can listen to any music as long as it's music. My ears are open to any genre.
