Baking delicious puddings

This week activity -- making puddings out of boring sponge cakes.
Remember those sponge cakes that tastes like real sponge?? (Exaggerating, huh)
Well, here's a way to make delicious custard puddings out of them. It tastes waaaay better!

Sorry, nada disertakan gambar result of the pudding. We ate them all after that! Teehee... Simply yummyyy....

Waxing...the southern region

After much pushing and talking into, I finally have the guts, as a real woman, to step up to the challenge of waxing the entire lower part of my abdomen.
Okay, this is not a joke. This goes out to all the male species... We don't just do it for fun or pleasure of it, but it's literally a matter of hygiene. So, if you think we're a bunch of weaklings, and you have the balls to do it, please do try it. Some may think that we're shallow, but I rather say, WE GOT THE BALLS.
Many thanks to Ira who did a great job last night. She made sure I was okay without passing out the whole time. And thanks to both my sisters who literally pushed me into it. I might do it again.
FYI, the waxing costed me $30 + $10 for underarm.
My skin is still numb after the whole process last night. Overall, 'it' looks supeeeerb!

Internet down...

The wet weather on Sunday has done as much damage to our internet connection. The pouring rain, the drizzle, the cold, cold atmosphere...
Our home line is totally DEAD due to the wet weather. It's been 2 days now since I last logged on. Had to go over to my mom's place to have access. I'm currently logging on via my E61i.
Calling & reporting a complaint to Telbru customer service dusn't do much. Did dat Sunday evening, still no internet access.
I'm now thinking, Telbru pulang behutang rah kami ni....hutang internet line. Bayaran sewa bulanan tatap dibayar panuh, tapi pemakaian internet dalam 2 hari ani inda jua ada. Macam mana tu.... ishhh...

Pengumuman ini, pengumuman itu...

A press conference was made yesterday Tuesday announced by Mawi himself regarding his marriage to Ekin that falls on 20th December 2008 (Saturday) in Johor.


Pengumuman and the whole deal is too much. I'm not a fan of Mawi (thank God) and personally I think the live announcement is unnecessary. If you wanna get married, just do it. Who does Mawi think he is??? Royalty? A Hollywood star? Isshhhh.... too much jua eh!

And Ekin... she once said that she's ready anytime to be married to Mawi. Oh God!!! Knowing his successful career, who doesn't want to? Takut ia kali c-Mawi atu kana ambil urang. Hahaha...

I hope he realises what he's gotten himself into. Nevertheless, ngam jua lah tu they marry each other.

After all the exclusive announcement pasal kan kawin... takut karang ada lagi exclusive announcement yang dot dot dot....if you know what I mean. Banar inda!!

Britney-wanna-be???

Sadang-sadang jua kan jadi c Britney ani...

Don't remember her???

This is Ekin of AF3 (of Labuan), who is believed to be Yazer's girlfriend.

She shaved her head because it is said that she has damaged hair!!

News that attracts my attention...

'Angelina - the bank raider'

Italian cops easily caught an armed robber after being told the gun wielding raider was Angelina Jolie.

Lookalike Annarita Ottonello, 29, staged a bank robbery in Genoa after running into money problems, say police.
But she was quickly caught, as she tried to escape by scooter, after police circulated the news that the bank had been robbed by an Angelina Jolie double.
A police spokesman said: "The resemblance was so uncanny that some witnesses actually thought it was the actress herself and that the robbery was part of a new Hollywood film.

"The woman had always thought that looking like Angelina Jolie was a bit of a bonus in her life
because it attracted lots of men.
Unfortunately in this particular instance it proved to be the worst possible thing for her - she was instantly recognisable.


RV'78: Angelina Jolie would be f**king pissed! She should make full use of that face! She could make money out of it. Duuuuhhh....

Drinking mom asks daughter, 9, to drive

TORONTO (Reuters) – An Ontario woman was charged with a traffic violation after having her nine-year-old daughter drive her home following a night of drinking.
"The woman was concerned that she was unable to drive having consumed some alcohol at a social function," police said on Thursday.
The child was driving the car slowly along country roads in southeastern Ontario on October 12 when police noticed how tiny she was and pulled her over, police said.

RV'78: How absurd can u be?!!

'Aping' around lands man in jail

ALTOONA, Pa. – A man who went to buy cigarettes in a gorilla suit to win a bet with his girlfriend is now being accused of receiving stolen property. Altoona police said they noticed a 20-year-old man walking down the city's Sixth Avenue just after midnight on Wednesday dressed as an ape.
Police said that when they stopped the man, they discovered he was wanted for receiving stolen property.
Police said the man told them he had gone to the convenience store in disguise because his girlfriend had bet him he wouldn't do it.
The man was charged with receiving stolen property and was released on bond.

RV'78: So much for a cheap bet!

Back to the past...*rewind*

These past few days, I've been catching up on old friends in Facebook. Mind you, they're not only old friends, but they're kinda my childhood friends. These two ladies used to sit close to me when we were in primary school.

*Pai Yuek School - A Chinese private school I attended 1982-1988. The building is still standing to this day*

Let's rewind for a bit. See if I can remember much detail. It was 1988, Primary 6. There were 10 of us in class, 5 boys and 5 girls. I sat next to Jong Mei Seen. Behind me was Leong Lee Chuan, Tieh Hee Mee and Lim Lay Geok.

The boys were Chieng Chiew Heng, Chieng Chiew Hao, Teo Siaw Ping, Teo Siaw Long, Foo Chuan Yaw.

Now, I'm not really keen on the boys, so I'm just gonna talk about the girls. Particularly, Jong Mei Seen and Leong Lee Chuan.

Mei Seen has a smaller figure. She's probably the smallest in class. But she's my best friend. Lee Ching is taller than all of us girls, I think. She's also the smartest among all of us girls.

So recently, I tried to look for Mei Seen in Facebook. (I tried searching for her before using 'Joanna Jong' but to no avail.) Miraculously, I found her! (First, I made sure it was really her by looking thru' her friend's list).

I shed tears of joy after looking at her photos. She has a 2 year old son & happily married, Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Then, it all started from there...I start to add Lee Ching, Aisah Md (ex-mate Form 1A), Nani Liza (ex-mate Form 2), Jessy Lim (Lay Gek).... *reminiscing*

Patricia Leong (Lee Ching) is now in Singapore, a nurse...a Sister now, I suppose. Her father was a nurse too back in Temburong. *Siiiiiigghhh*

I'm so glad to be meeting them in FB. I usually share photos+news around with my cousins (mum's side) in KK and KL. And of course, my extended relatives (husband's side).

But, to be finding childhood friends too...it's beyond my imagination. So, thanks to Facebook. They make it happen!

Peasants...fake or the real thing

Balik kerja tengah hari tadi, I decided to singgah at one kedai runcit called Noorfathima di kawasan Mentiri. After I locked my car, ada this male kid (probably under 10 years old) pakai t-shirt biru muda and seluar quarter length.

He was standing not far from the entrance (ada tampat stand penyapu & mop). Ditagurnya ku and gave me a hand signal as in"Minta $1".

I was shocked and totally ignored him. Ku tanya cashier kedai about the kid. She said that andang lama sudah anak atu di sana, tiap hari. If I'm not mistaken dari start puasa sudah. Again I'm shocked!

How can his parents be so ignorant.... How could they let their child minta sedakah like that. I'm disgusted.

When I left the shop, I decided to speak to him personally.

Di mana ko tinggal wang? Di sana... (sambil menunjuk ke jalan menuju ke Muara).

Jauhkah? Inda jua brapa jauh.

Inda ko skulah kah? Skulah. Aku balik skulah tadi.

Bah, patang ani inda ko skulah ugama kan? Inda... (sambil tunduk2 mungkin segan).

Pasal apa inda skulah ugama? Batah sudah inda...

Kenapa plg inda ugama? Nada baju ugama.

Siapa nama bapa mu? Kula bin Mansor.

Mana bapamu masani? Becarai sudah.

Mamamu di mana? Balik kampung ia.

Ko tinggal sama siapa kan? Abangku... (sambil tunduk2).

Sudah tah ko makan? Balum...

Nada urg basar danganmu tinggal d rumah kan? Nada...

*Sigh* Kesian jua ku mendangar...

Honestly, I'm the type of person yang inda suka bagi muka rah peminta sedekah. Normally, I would totally ignore them. Not because I'm a stuck-up b!+ch, but I don't like the idea of them being peasants (fake or for real) while they've parents or family at home. They are either being ignored or simply seeking for attention...I'm not sure. You may have heard about these 'kid peasants' asking for $$$ just for the fun of it. Ada yg pernah teliat, lapas kids ani dapat duit, ada yg selajur berlari ke kadai internet main CS (Counter Strike)!

Now that disgusts me!

However, in this case, I've a hunch that this kid is telling the truth. Why I said so... Because he didn't for one second hesitate replying my questions. Inda ia walk away... inda penyeluru or senyum2....U noe lah, if yg jenis kurang ajar nampak dari facial expressionnya.

He stood there speaking to me in a good manner. If ia jenis yang bedusta, he'd probably hesitate giving me all the details...u noe, takut kedapatan or kana report to his parents.

I purposely questioned about his father's name, just to test him & see his reaction.

Hmmmm.... Allah saja yang tahu. So I hand him 50 cents (the change I got earlier) and said, "Nah! Agatah membali nasi di dalam".

Mind you, I'm not 'karit'. I just disagree that he's there asking for money. I noe it's not his fault & just hungry for lunch. But, karang nyanyat ia diri2 d kadai atu minta $$$ saja rah urang. Inda pedah2 branti skulah ia pulang kraja minta sedakah!!

PSR 2008 exam is officially over

These images are taken in the examination hall (Dewan Serbaguna) at Sekolah Yayasan SHHB.

*Brand new & cozy*

PSR 2008 is officially over and done!

I'm soooo relieved that it's over. So the last big thing to come our way is the RESULT! Normally it will come out before the December school holidays.

I'm expecting better results for this year's batch. Nevertheless, I'm not sure if they're better than last year's batch. Teaching Primary 6 is totally new for me.

I hope they'll get thru' with flying colours. I hope that I'll be seeing new faces next year. I hope they're no repeaters. I hope that they'll be better students and head towards a brighter future in whatever they do. I hope that they're better than me as an individual. I hope that they could make full use of whatever knowledge they've learnt from me.

I hope they'll gain success in life and remember me as part of their learning experience.

Hooked on them...

These days, you'll find me sitting religiously in front of the TV (every Tuesdays & Wednesdays) catching up on Lipstick Jungle, America's Got Talent and The Moment of Truth.

Lindsay Price, Kim Raver & Brooke Shields *These ladies are absolutely gorgeous!*

The judges...

The Magnificent Leonid *He definitely caught my attention!*

This show shocks me everytime!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My little Andre.....

*Manja, kan.*

He'll shout back to hub's "Samekom!"

*Just a few more spots left to cover*

I just need to get it off my chest once in a while...

Imagine yourself in an uncomplicated, but rather uncomfortable situation. Lets say you're in your early thirties, and married for more than 4 years. So, it's Hari Raya and you go beraya to relatives. What's the most frequent asked question that you hear??

"Alum ko beanak?" *Siiiiiiiggghhhhh*

My life is not complicated. Our lives go smoothly as it is. I take each day one at a time. Yet that uncomfortable spot find its way to get us. When it comes to visiting relatives, I dread for such question. I would stumble on my words upon replying. It's embarassing...

Rezeki... Semuanya ada pada Tuhan. As a muslim, we believe that rezeki inda semestinya wang ringgit, harta benda atau kehidupan yang mewah. Tapi boleh jua berupa zuriat. Yes, that's true. In regards to our rezeki...who am I to question my rezeki. Seolah-olah inda bersyukur pada apa yang telah dilimpahkan oleh Allah selama ani. Rezeki yang telah dikurniakan pada kitani berbeza dan inda semestinya sama dengan orang lain.

For me, mungkin rezeki zuriat kami belum sampai. Mungkin jua ada dalam masa yang terdekat ani, insya-Allah. (Amiin, mudahan jua). Aku yakin Allah menentukan rezeki kami pada hal-hal yang lain buat masa sekarang. Alhamdulillah... Suami melanjutkan pelajaran, kami cukup bersyukur.

Sesungguhnya Tuhan telah menetapkan dan menyusun perjalanan hidup kami. I believe that buat masa ani kami diberi peluang untuk mencapaikan hajat masing-masing.

Masalah atau musibah yang dihadapi oleh seseorang itu tandanya Allah menguji kesabaran dan ketabahannya. Semakin sabar dan tabah seseorang itu, semakin sayanglah Allah padanya.

That's exactly what I tell myself everytime I feel down. Walau bagaimana besar masalah yang menimpa diri kitani, sememangnya ada lagi orang yang lebih susah ditimpa masalah berbanding kitani.

Do we feel lonely? Yes, of course we do. Do I ever think about adoption? A couple of times, yes. Somehow, I dare not to ask around. I don't want people to think that we are desperate. To think that I'm egoistic, that would be shallow. All I can say is if the opportunity or offer comes one day, I certainly would not hesitate to say 'yes'. It would certainly be beyond my imagination.

Redha, berusaha, tawakkal, berserah saja pada Allah. That's all I can do for now.... I try as much as possible not to worry too much over it. But I'm a woman, and I guess it's human nature for us to worry and often question ourselves.

The future is the whole deal for me. I'm in my thirties already... only time can tell. Forty may be a long journey ahead, but I don't think so. Time flies...and I'm still waiting....

Lil' Andre...

Get to watch lil' Andre (myna / burung tiong) being fed this afternoon. Oh gosh... he's gone from a baby bird that can hardly stand on its own two feet to being a maturing myna every single day. Andre & his other pair can now perch. He has grown really healthy. He still needs to be fed by hand tho', but it won't be for long.

Mind you, they sure like to take a dip into water! Gauk c Andre atu. Masa bapa bari makan, pandai ia melumpat rah gayung berisi air. Mula2 menaguk aying...impress tah kami meliat yang ia pandai minum sendiri. Sekali...terajun ia dlm aying gayung atu. Cukup dengan terajun atu kibar2nya tia sayapnya. Atu ia...kami yang ketempiasan!! Bagus!!!

RV'78: Inda sabar rasanya kan ngambil ia esuk... yeheeee...

PSR exam starts today

The day that we've all been waiting or rather dreading for has finally come.

I got posted as invigilator to Yayasan school. First time jadi pengawas, tarus pulang kana antar ke skulah semi-government.

Arrived there early, around 7.30 a.m. Culture shock jua bila sampai ke skulah atu. Al maklum lah, skulah bebayar. Jauh2 bejalan & mencari dewan peperiksaannya (they're using Dewan Serbaguna) ahirnya tetulus jua.

The building itself is actually brand new, cukup dengan air-conditioner, a nice stage with navy blue curtains, spotlights on ceiling, 3 or 4 rows of grandstand seats and pvc walls (which I really like).

I'm gaining good experience from being an invigilator. It's good to be out of your comfort zone once in a while.

PSR exam: 11th, 13th, 14th, 15th October 2008.

Biarlah doaku sentiasa mengiringimu

Ya Allah, semoga murid-muridku dapat menjawab soalan-soalan peperiksaan besar mereka tahun ini dengan tabah dan tawakkal...

Permudahkanlah kepayahan mereka, hilangkanlah kerunsingan mereka, lancarkanlah pemikiran mereka...

Berikanlah mereka kekuatan hafalan dan pemahaman dalam pembelajaran ilmu pengetahuan sepanjang mereka menimba ilmu...

Permudahkanlah murid-muridku menerima ilmu dan ringankanlah bebanan yang dipikul oleh guru-gurunya dalam menghantar ilmu yang dipertanggungjawabkan keatasnya...

Ya Allah, ku ikhlaskan hati, redha ke atas segalanya, bertawakkal padaMu. Kami hanya mampu memohon, tapi Kau yang menentukan. Makbulkanlah permohonan ku. Amin ya rabbal alamin....

Sharing the festivities & love on Syawal

We’ve taken around hundreds of photos during raya. I have to say, the photos taken especially on the 1st day of raya showed loads of love & the value of family. The gathering around, the smiles, gestures and even the food showed lots of love goin’ around. I can’t wait to do it all over again next year. Another Ramadhan and another Syawal.

So I’m dedicating these pictures to CT Mun a.k.a. Munique as she’s away from home this year. [Promised her to upload photos.] Enjoy!

Here are some awesome photos taken around 1st day of Aidilfitri that I love to share with you. These are family members as well as close relatives that are always there for you. Love it!

*We got teased for this pose. Haha!*

Uncle & Bucu a.k.a. Mama Niah*with their romantic pose*

The living room's packed. *Erm.. Let's count heads...*

*Taken at Ngah Mina's residence*

5th day of Raya

It feels like it was only yesterday that Hari Raya started. Well, that's for me, dunno about you guys out there. Tomorrow morning will be just another day of work..again. Though the atmosphere and festive mood will definitely be obvious since it's only the 5th day of Syawal.

I'm certainly in no mood in what-so-ever for teaching just yet. (Nevertheless, I must plan my tomorrow's lesson).

Oh man! It's taking me ages for the computer to upload my raya pics. I'm trying to put them up in Facebook (for my cousins & frens) and here. But the uploading is terribly slow. I might have to do it tomorrow.

*Taken at Ghani's residence*

At my crib - YF Residence

Taken at Uncle Halim's place *nice & cozy*

Oh, btw, below is our new myna bird pet named Andre (well, one of them actually!). He's gotten bigger & healthier in just a couple of days. He has rather strong feet now. Andre came with another sibling who will be adopted by my in-laws.

*I've no clue how to differentiate the gender. And I still can't make up my mind which one to choose*

Both are still young, and we feed them by hand. They tend to get hungry very often (every 2-3 hours). They're loud, but absolutely adorable.

1st Syawal...

Happy Hari Raya to everyone!

I love the morning atmosphere and the sights of family gathering aside from the hot weather. The sky was clear. However, it rains in the afternoon. So, this year likewise, we started from rumah Mama, then rumah Ngah Janah, after that rumah Ngah Mina and lastly rumah Tua Muhamad. All these houses served nasi lemak, satay, etc.
I feel a lil' guilty eating in the morning and so replaced that with sweet drinks. Tapi pada hakikatnya sama jua kambung parut ulih minum saja. Apraaa, Labu....

This year, the guests (or relatives) kinda' bertambah. I see a couple of new born babies... Have no idea who's the baby daddy, tho.

Later on around 1.00 p.m., went to pay my family a visit in the afternoon. I always love walking into the huge guest room during raya. It was only open for special ocassions such as this.

The smell of air freshener... the cool temperature... looking through what's new as decoration... sitting cozily on the sofa... just being there in the comfort of my family home.

All my sisters were there. My aunts & uncles came over and I took a couple of pictures. (Still experimenting & getting used to D60).
My bro-in-law took the opportunity to check out the D60. (Hehehe... thinking of getting one urself??)
It was then almost 4.00 p.m. when we decided to get back home for a rest.

Later in the evening, hubs & I were having dinner with Pijah & Jati rah Mama when Ngah Garip invited us to come over. I was actually wearing baju rumah, and dat is it! But, untuk tidak menghampakan peminat...we go ahead...baju rumah and all!

Honestly, this is the first time EVER aku beraya ke rumah Ngah Garip wearing baju tidur/rumah! Yes, in the year 2008! Bida kali ah... baik jua nada urang singgah beraya. Mun ada tepaksa balik lalu pintu dapur.

Salam syahdu Aidilfitri 2008

Tak ada kata yang indah

Tak ada nafas setelah kita mati

Tak ada kebahagian dalam kehidupan

Tak ada kata penghubung silahturahim

Selain kata mohon maaf zahir batin

Yang baik datang dari Allah SWT, dan yang buruk datang dari syaitan

Kita sebagai manusia tak luput dari salah dan dosa.

Tak ada kata yang sempurna dan bijak selain kata mohon maaf zahir batin

Tak ada lidah dalam kata yang salah

Tak ada kaki dalam langkah menuju kebaikan

Tak ada telinga dalam mendengarkan yang salah

Tak ada kata yang terangkai terucap selain kata minal aidzin wal fa idzin

Mohon maaf zahir dan batin

~ Selamat menyambut Hari Raya 2008 ~

Salam syahdu di Aidilfitri,

~ Taneya L. ~

RV'78: May the guidance and blessings of Allah be with you and your family.

Hari Raya on Thursday

I soooo want this Gucci clutch bag for Raya. I wish.....

I'm actually excited to greet Syawal. I worked so hard doing the house chores yesterday. Hubs & I cleaned the surroundings, cleared away the debris that got it's way around the house drain. So tired, yet worth all the sweat. At least we don't have to rush cleaning the house again the day before raya.

All we need to do now is sorting through the house decorations, iron our best suits for tomorrow and rest. Oh, and watch the raya programmes on astro! It's a good thing we're one day late of raya. We get to watch the good parts for sure.

So, what's up for today? Another good news is we added a new pet and it is yet to join our family.... a myna bird (burung tiong). I name it Andre. It came as a pair, so Andre's other sibling is adopted by my in-laws.

I haven't got a chance to take snapshots of Andre. He's not fully covered with feathers and still considered as a baby at this stage. I was and still am amazed by their reactions everytime they're being fed. I must say, these birds are loud and considered as smart pets. So, I'm excited to see how smart he'll grow into.

I can just tell how 'religious' my Andre would be. How come? Coz the mosque is just across the road. Anytime soon he'll be able to immitate all the azan prayers performed by different Imams!

Impressive, huh!

Missing Ramadhan already

Takbir Hari Raya sudah berkumandang di masjid berdekatan rumah kami. Syahdu bunyinya... Atu tah tandanya Syawal sudah tiba. Genaplah sudah sebulan kitani berpuasa di bulan Ramadhan.

1-Oktober (Rabu) merupakan hari terakhir bersungkai pada tahun 2008, tapi hati ani sebenarnya sudah rindukan Ramadhan, walaupun baru sejam berlalu. Inda lama lagi azan Isya akan dilaungkan.

It is also at this time and moment that your handphone will play Raya ringtones multiple times alerting you for the loads of Aidilfitri messages you're receiving from friends and family.

I've already received 2 messages and it's only 7.22 p.m. Just for the record, they're from a former student's parent and another is from Satil.

(Azan Isya mula dilaungkan oleh suami tercinta di masjid berdekatan).

I remember the first time I heard it exclusively via the phone. It was sumwat magical & I was stunned! *sigh*



Oh, btw, bunyi letupan badil dan bunga api pun inda kurang kuatnya daripada takbir Raya. Berlawan-lawanan bunyinya.

Seperti biasa, lapas suami balik dari Sembahyang Sunnat Raya esok, start tah kesibukan ziarah-menziarahi kaum keluarga dan saudara-mara berdekatan. Ia tah hari yang paling mengenyangkan ni. Mudahan jua baju raya ku tahun ani dapat menampung juadah Hari Raya. Maklum, baju fesyen, selalunya baju kurung biasa.

(Just for the record, berat badanku pun turun di musim puasa tahun ani. Dari 55kg to 50kg).
