grandma bought this new bag from hatyai :D royee requested for a new school bag



angels got these pencil cases, coz my mum said, angels told my mum 'gogo has pencil case, we don't have pencil cases' so pity hor, in fact, I always tell them, mama will let u bring your new bags n pencil cases when u r in 5 years old class. I don't want to spoil them, n I don't want them to spoil the things @_@



I bought 4 containers for bbb n myself. so we can bring food along with us. previously they have a smaller one for bread n biscuits. in the pic, inside the container - homemade chicken floss cup cakes :)

message to dearest j13219

Last weekend, when I attend the kinder prize giving ceremony, I saw this picture which is one of the winners’ art pieces. This made me stopped n looked at it. It made me think of J13219 – my best friend group. I feel warm n look at it, all those school time memories, what we did in the past came in my mind. Miss those days, happy n sad together. Exchanges diaries, shared beautiful songs, handmade gifts to each other, then from morib beach to mamak stall, then from phone calls to emails. Time flies, but our friendship connections are still there. Am waiting, waiting for the crossroad, where 3 of us can gather again, and continue our journey with each other like what we had in our ‘young’ time ^_^

---

got this from mei mei this morning ^_^

Yes, miss those good old time..I still keep all the letters & gifts... hoping one day when we get together again we can read those letters & have a good laugh of our young & naive days..:)Another fren i knew since I was in aus 10 years ago is moving interstate & I cried at work after she told me the newsI was a bit suprised why I even did that. I don't normally cry. Maybe the older I get the more emotional I get..The older I get, The more I realised the lesser good frens I got..Sometimes, i do wonder, if I didn't go to Aust, wat we will become? It maybe be a whole different stories all together?Anyway, with the distance & family commitment between us, I really hope that one day "like wat Seew said 3 of us will cross path again..back to the good old days, And better still, just like my favourate song, "let us grow old together slowly....

in these busy days, sometime we feel tired on our daily routines, the email notifications, the SMS tones, the phone ring, ppl talking, our inner voices.. last nite on the way back home, I just feeling inside my mind is 'so noisy', all sort of sounds made me exhausted. I decided to switch off my phone for at least this 1hour journey. listening to my young time favourite songs, n driving slowly back home.

date with Mei to meet up n let children meeting each other, but the plan is yet to be realised. this week am full with workloads n month end closing. ya, this long weekend national day holidays east coast trip has been cancelled! royee is having his final exam on Monday. 1st exam for me n him.

am in the train now, going back to the office from klcc. gone to klcc to activate my bank account so I can withdraw my salary. this mth we change our salary bank in bank. I went to kinokuniya bookstore, bought myself a fruit+vege juice reference book, n some cute stuff for bbb. am using retail therapy to release my stress :)

in the train, can't wait to see bbb. miss them much. slowly royee is attaching to me, last nite he himself requested to sleep with me, pack all his stuff in my room n sleep with smile :)

funny nite~

Eva was sleeping.. these 2 bb were still active. royee teach me his class year end performance steps, do I do exercise with him. then angel shared her stories. few photos taken before I get them to sleep.





angel: mummy, where is my mouth? snap a new pic


aiya very blur.. the final one is nice, but I accidentally deleted it :( facebook has it.






royee told me, teacher said if we performance well for the year end ceremony, then she will give us pop corn to eat. then I said 'hah, u practice hardly because of the popcorn la, not because u want to show it to papa n mama la' no la, teacher promised this by her own, we didn't request for it, got it? ^_^ 'ok la, tell your friends to practice good good, mama will make them cake or cookies, u want cake or cookies?' anything la, power rangers cake will do.

hmmm up to me to decide, but 'power rangers cakes' will do :p sound like so easy going..

aisteru

hmmm laogong going back home, me still in the office working hmm...

improvement :)

last nite royee was sleeping when I reached home. normally he waits for me to check his homework. since last nite can't make it, so this morning I get him to complete all his homework before going to the kinder.



he colour the picture nicely. although the sun is not suppose to be black, the hen shouldn't be blue. compare to the previous colouring n effort he put in, this is good :) so I given him a shining LOVE as an encouragement ^_^



when I checked the 2nd work book, this is much better! right colour for the picture :D n from the photo frame picture, I know he put in effort in the colouring, so, another shining love from mummy :D royee was so happy :)



this is what I designed for royee's class teacher. a lovely teacher who take good care of royee this naughty boy ^0^ this pic is a print screen from my iPhone, so it is a bit cacat. plan to print it out n give a copy to the teacher. a appreciation note to thank her very much :)

organic tea break

ya, we went out for lunch yesterday n today, something more filling, n we have our organic healthy tea break.


Thursday - red bean + black sesame + sugar. this is smooth n yummy!! really great taste, nice to serve it warm.


same as above, in different mug. colleague said everyday I post the pic in black mug, can't see it nicely :p but this pic taken angle not good, can see the texture of the yummy dessert :p
Friday! we have orange, apple, carrot, celery juice. this is nice :) shall do it for bbb to help them taste more vege n fruits.

taking train now, tonight I am not going back to bkt31, tomolo need to attend prize giving ceremony at kinder - for angel n eva :)



the invitation slips from the kinder. drawing competition.

when ppl told u..

this is the story..

hmm.. my opinion in this case is, we shouldn't punish the kid when we didn't witness the happening. what ppl told us can be the true story, but they might not know the reason behind of the negative behaviour. maybe, our kid wants to tell us the true feeling or actual story. but are they given the chance to do so?

1st, when we listen to ppl story the we punish our kid, then the kid might have 2 thought - mummy trust other ppl n hurt me; the CCTV (the story teller) sells me. trustworthy seems to be challenged.

2nd, why don't we 1 to 1 talk to the kid, let her has the chance to voice out her feeling n why she wanted to do naughty stuff? dislike something? hate someone? this is the great chance for us to know our kid feeling n inner heart, n at the same time, we get bonding, the kid feel the respect n care from the mummy n understand mummy feeling - sad, hurt when they are naughty.

3rd, in the future, the kid will get smarter, avoid CCTV when acting bad, so no story for CCTV to tell the mummy, so mummy won't punish me. as parent, we will slowly lose story from outsider about what our children doing when we r not around. then slowly, we lose the connected connection.

there is always some reason for children to act naughty, some reasons are acceptable n in fact, they are doing good thing, but the outcome seem to be negative to us.

eg pour a cup of water for granny who is coughing, accidentally the kid break the cup, n all mess up. if we come in at this stage, we might say 'how many times I told u don't come here n play with water? u see!' then the kid being canned.

well what I am trying to say is, when our children doing naughty at outside, we might lose face, feel embarrassed. but don't lose children trust to us, don't let them feel parents are not approachable, parents don't trust n understand me. try not to lose the chance for children to share with us any happy or sad stories, n even naughty ideas! sometime naughty ideas = creative thinking. don't u think so? as long as we don't hurt ppl n our own then it should be fine.

when my parents or brother complain to me how naughty my baby did when i was not around, how serious they punish them, I always bring my kid to the room, lock the door, switch off the light, let baby sit on my lap, n start the one to one heart talking counselling session. if the child being canned, I apply healing cream on the small wound, n tell the baby, this must be very hurt, mummy's feeling hurt too, u shouldn't do this, n try not to give chance for others to hurt your body by being a good baby. u should protect yourself. sometime, u get this 'mummy, I was naughty lo, so grandma get angry, I go to say sorry to grandma ya' :)

we would prefer our boss to talk to us, listen to us, before the boss downgrade us right? :p ya, mid year performance evaluation time, today is my 1-1 session :)

good luck mummies~

tue or wed?

am still recalling today is Tuesday or Wednesday har? should be wednesday, coz I joined the cooking class in tuesday? never mind la, don't need to bother much :p left few hours more for today hehe..

today lunch



the energy power porridge - mixture of grains actually. it taste ok naturally, so no salt or sugar added. I suggest to add in few scallops, it would be taste better then it won't be this plain. may try it next time with ikan bilis or scallops.



after the hot porridge, we have organic dragon fruit. a silly question, dragon fruit is not white in colour? coz normally I eat white isi de, n try few organic dragon fruits, all pink colour de. stupid question I asked to myself, organic dragon fruit different colour? :p different species kot.

in fact, I have many stories to post n share, but these few days am a bit busy with all sort of reporting n mid year performance evaluation. anyway, I am feeling good :) beautiful day to me everyday, feeling children love much much much :*

day before I saw very beautiful rainbow at putrajaya. I shared with Eva about the rainbow, she looked disappointed, she said 'now is dark night, of course i cant see rainbow la :( ' this is something I can't cheer her up immediately by giving her a rainbow to see, I hope 1 day soon we can spotted a rainbow together ^_^




God is LOVE :)

organic lunch

officemate brought a maker n we started the organic lunch plan :) they have their diet plan too, monitoring the weight everyday, I didn't join them, coz what I need is to eat n live healthy, KG is not so important now. if body healthy, I guess that my weight would be slowly going down :p lazy ppl theory hehe..



this is the maker. made in china. rm500+



with these functions - cool n hot, for beans, fruits, vege, rice..



this is our day1 meal: 10-rice, pumpkin, almond, walnut. I like the nuts taste ^_^



2nd day lunch: mushroom, potato, carrots, black pepper with charcoal bread. can add in salt, it is nice to eat without salt, u can taste the natural sweetness. I like it without salt.



3rd day lunch: azuka bean, pulut hitam, sugar. this is thick n filling, a cup each with the fried meehoon twin sharing ^_^

feeling good to have a gang of frens preparing food n eat together. cooking ideas sharing, home stories sharing, patenting tips n of course, tiny slots for gossiping :p

they asked me to continue don't give up, in fact, what I am being bothered is my another Malay lunch gang friendship, if I everyday eat with this group of organic friends, then pula I miss my Malay gang friends.

about the food, maybe ppl thinking I am big size n always fancy about all those yummy n high flavour taste, in fact, My food intake is quite simple, drink tea without sugar, eat plain porridge with only marmite, no ice cream, no susu pekat, mostly on warm plain water only, no milo no coffee. very rare chance of eating red meat, mostly fish, chicken now also reduced, only take chicken breast, can't take the meat taste. I bake cakes n cookies, but I seldom eat them :p

met a nutritionist once, she checked all my daily food intake n like n dislike, she said 'your food intake is good! but why u r heavy weight?' ya... this is the question lo.. maybe, my food quality is good, but my food quantity is heavy :D kakakaka..

btw, I am planning for a specialist visit, my stomach or colon or whatever organs in my tummy need to be checked, the uncomfortable symptom getting worse especially at nite, bloated like 7mth pregnancy :(

I am sailing

I am sailing, I am sailing,
Home again cross the sea.
I am sailing, stormy waters,
To be near you, to be free.

I am flying, I am flying,
Like a bird cross the sky.
I am flying, passing high clouds,
To be with you, to be free.

Can you hear me, can you hear me
Thro the dark night, far away,
I am dying, forever trying,
To be with you, who can say.

Oh lord, to be near you, to be free.

sang this song many many times in today journey to the train station. shall teach bbb this beautiful nice song :)

when a child is born

heavy rain, stuck in the jam, journey back to home. listening to ch-yi's 'when a child is born' patiently wait for my turn to reach home :)
-----

A ray of hope flitters in the sky
A shiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds have changed whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn
This comes to pass when a child is born

A rosy hue settles all around
You've got the feel you're on solid ground
For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn
This comes to pass when a child is born

(Spoken)
And all of this happened
Because whe world is waiting
Waiting for one child
Black, white, yellow, no one knows
But a child that would grow up and turn tears to
laughter
Hate to love, war to peace
And everyone to everyone's neighbour
Misery and suffering would be forgotten forever

It's all a dream and illusion now
It must come true, sometimes soon somehow
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born

All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born

When a child is born

妈咪，我不是在睡觉，我是在charge电。

妈咪，你等我起来你才出去，我先去charge电,我要没有电了。

妈咪，我肚子痛！我刚才吃了一些菜。机器人是不可以吃菜的。

等一下，我先去加油，你们去玩，我一下子过去。

我转一下这个音量钮，好了，我可以唱大声了。

creative bang-srei

came back from 15082010 Sunday school, I got this..





different ways of folding up my bed quilt by maid sister. I smiled when I saw this :) yup, it might not that special, but it is different idea from ordinary ways she did it. I like to see this, same case when I see my office cleaner use their own creativity to make up the pantry or deco to breakout area. I like to see creativity in daily routines. this inspired me!

my maid sister getting much better, started following out steps n daily routines. like her attitude n I hope this continues. work performance is not 100% but good attitude wins ppl hearts ^_^

simple thought

got this out from the busy but easy friday working hours..


ya I found my hair getting longer, n I always think to cut it short. in the office, few ppl tells me I look better with long hair. sis also tells the same, n she wants we to be in long hair in her wedding. so I make up my mind, no matter how itchy hand is, I will only cut my hair short after my sis wedding :)

that day when angel lay down next to me, 'mummy, your hair is long, you are beautiful' her voice soft n clear, it feels sweet ^_^ now royee likes to sit behind me when i watch tv or reading book, then he touches my hair, comb the hair with his fingers, smell it, trying to tight the hair. my maid always smile when looking this. my heart feels sweet n loved! how nice it is, when mummy is in the boy's eyes n heart. (hoh... if laogong can do this, how nice it is...)

today is a sweet Friday the 13th, I just feel good today. I am a Friday 13th baby, n today is my officemate doreen's bday. bought something for her, I always want to do this, now I have a chance to thank her. a caring auntie to me (she definitely will get angry for 'auntie' this word :p) I always tell my mama, Doreen in my mama in the office, a caring big sister to me ^_^




Doreen, happy birthday ya!!
