Lookout Point

We went to Hulu Langat for our dinner today as suggested by hubby. Chinnee also had been there. I didn’t know it was the place that was mentioned by Chinnee until I get there. From my house it takes about 10 minutes drive, quite near though.

Not advisable to go on weekend, if do so, please go there early if you want to secure your parking at the top of the hill. Parking on top is very limited, or you may park your car at the bottom and climb the steep steps to the restaurant. Luckily we managed to find parking up there if not gotto do a bit of exercise.

There are about four restaurants which are Look Out Point, Gasoline Café, Bread & Olive Café and BBQ. Wanted to try Look Out Point but it was full so we headed to Gasoline Café instead.

Two of the restaurants up there

Sat at cubicle

Steak with satay sauce. hehehe... only shown one of our dinner coz mummy is very hungry oledi.

After dinner we went to Menara Tinjau to see the KL scenery

Walkway to the tower

I still find the KL scenery from my balcony even better. Sebastian was curious, he thought got something exciting to see at the top of tower, when we climb on top the tower just to see the scenery he was little bit upset. He said we can see this everyday at home... LOL!!!

Taekwando

Sebastian had taekwando exam last week. He woke up at a little moody but overall the exam went well. Today, Sebastian received his green belt as he had passed his exam. The examiner said Sebastian did very well except few of the pattern he need to practice more frequent.

Missy Vain Pot @ 2yrs 7mths

Sidney is turning 2yrs and 7mth today and now stands at 91cm, weight 13kg. My last post about Sidney when she was at 27 months. See, mummy did not update about your progress for so long.

• Very talkative and can put all words in a sentence but her conversation sometimes is not very clear, it’s may due to having her chut chut in her mouth while talking. She is diaper less in daytime but nighttime yet to train her.


• Her character is totally different from Sebastian. She have her own way of doing thing, she will listen to you when she feel like it. Or else, she will just ignore you.


• When talking to her or telling her what is right and what is wrong, she keep nodding her head thought she understand what am I telling her. For a seconds, turning around she do what I told her earlier not to do.


• She is daddy girl, very attached to daddy; anything she wants she will only look for daddy coz mummy don’t give. Almost every night she will walk to our room and look for daddy to sleep with him so she will squeeze in between us. If daddy is outstation she will walk back to her room and sleep, don’t even want to sleep with mummy : (


• She is jealous when daddy is hugging me or holding my hand. She will start to cry very loud and get his daddy attention and want daddy to carry her or holding her hand only.

School Holidays

Its school holidays for two weeks and the happiest one will be the kids. So, what is in my plan???

• Already applied two days leave to accompany them which is the following week
• Thursday will be going up hill for a day trip with my sis and the kiddos
• Friday will bring them to Lake Garden, then Bird Park and follow by Butterfly Park
• Saturday is PH will bring them to Water Park. Have not confirmed which water park to go. Ie. Sunway (sure crowded one), Desa (never been there) or Shah Alam (too far)
• Sunday will bring Sebastian to watch Ironman, Sidney will be at my mum house, won’t bring Sidney along
• Will get some workbook for Sebastian to do if not MIL will just put on TV for him to watch
• Need to train Sebastian to write B, D, C and E coz he always write it reverse o.O
  

Although above is not a perfect plan but I hope Sebastian and Sidney will happy wherever I bring them. Hubby will not follow as he is very busy and furthermore that week he will be outstation.

So, this superwoman will gao dim everything!!!

Family Vacations

I think many of you may have booked your trip to somewhere at very attractive rates or even a free seats since the two airlines is fighting with each other on low fares. I wanted to grab some free seats to Hong Kong again next year but all free seats have been taken up.

Then I planned for my local trip instead. I managed to grab free seats to Langkawi this end September and lower fares rates to KK next year. I wanted to get lowest fares to Langkawi or KK this coming school holidays or August school holidays but all seats offered are very expensive not worth paying. So, my boy got to ponteng school again this end September. I can still let him ponteng once a while but not when he goes to Primary One. :P

I’m also planning a trip to Pangkor Laut Resort for my ROM anniversary on 8 Aug 2008, only hubby and myself for 2nd honeymoon. But don’t know it will happen or not. Gotto discuss with hubby first. He is very busy nowadays and can’t make up his mind.

Happy long weekend!!!

Getting Better Now

Thanks a lot for all you advise.

I’m getting better now after blasted it out yesterday and today. So, from now on, I will not get involve on the maid issue again. They insist to get back the old maid, go ahead and please don’t come and complaint to me at the end of the day. That’s it.

I just got back home from company dinner and clubbing. Our company is organizing a Thank you / Appreciation Dinner at the hotel nearby our workplace. The buffet serving at the hotel is very lousy, although all foods look yummy but it’s tasteless except for the Char Kuay Teow. After dinner, few of our colleagues suggested to go for a drink, so I joined them since I still in bad mood at that moment. We went to Borneo Baruk Club behind the hotel where we had our dinner. The club is not crowded maybe it’s still early and abit boring in that club, maybe no leng jai…. LOL!!

I'M SO PISSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m so pissed off!!! Really pissed off!!

Sorry for the bad mouthing…………..


Don’t know how to type the whole story out, a bit here and there, so I make it in point form instead

• My maid is leaving this weekend and she have to pack her stuff
• I had informed her about her departure date and let her call her parent to pick her up at the airport
• Brought her to Carrefour to buy clothes for her parents, grandparents, brothers and sister in law, she had her one long list what she need to buy and she spend around RM500plus on clothing. Of course not paid by me, it’s her owned income.
• She tell me she want to buy mobile phone, so I will bring her to shopping on Saturday for her last round of shopping
• Not bad hor… this type of employer and I know I’m not supposed to inform her earlier but kesian her la……
• So far I really don’t have any major problems with her and she did not cause anything problem to us too
• All complaints about her mainly from your MOTHER IN LAW
• SHE is the one who mentioned to hubby and me that she do not need maid anymore. Reason being is maid giving her so much of problems
• When I decided to let her go back to Indonesia, my MOTHER IN LAW keep asking me whether I really do not need a maid
• Every other days sure SHE ask me about whether I will be getting back the old maid
• My BROTHER IN LAW told my mom that I do not need a maid but my MOTHER IN LAW needs it as she getting old now and can’t do so much of house work
• Out of sudden my SISTER IN LAW called my hubby asking why I don’t want to keep the maid coz she still want to work with me (my maid is telling my SIL this today)
• I was so mad when hubby told me about this, why everyone is so concerned and pointing the fingers to me. And I had argument with hubby on the phone about this matters while I was still in the office
• Why can’t they tell me directly if they need maid, for sure I will get one if MOTHER IN LAW really cannot cope.
• For once, MOTHER IN LAW did tell my mom that she does not need a maid if this maid is leaving, but now why SHE said different thing now. WHY?????????
• I told hubby about his MUM character and the way she talked, sure hubby said that I’m very sensitive. AM I SENSITIVE??? Maybe yes… maybe no… I don’t know
• Today, once step into MOTHER IN LAW house; SHE started to tell me that my maid told her she still wants to work with us. So, I told MOTHER IN LAW that will discuss this once I finish eating
• Called maid, MOTHER IN LAW and hubby sitting together and talk about this matter, I did not go into very details as I just want to no the answer whether my maid still want to work with us. She said yes. So I asked her why she did not telling me earlier that she still want to work and keep on telling my MOTHER IN LAW, FATHER IN LAW, BROTHER IN LAW and SISTER IN LAW, are they paying your salary? No right, then what the heck you go and tell them.
• I remember that I did ask her before whether she still want to continue working with me, and she said NO
• So, did she brainwashed by someone?? Of coz the person is not me
• I’m very confused, mad, pissed off with all these.
• The end of the story here is I WON’T GET BACK THE EXISTING MAID, IF THEY INSIST THEY WANT, TAKE IT, I DON’T CARE, NOT MY MONEY, IF THEY WANT TO GET THE NEW MAID, GO AHEAD, DON’T ASK ME. SINCE I’M ALWAYS THE LAST ONE TO KNOW IF THEY CAN’T MAKE DECISION. F*** OFF!!!

It's my birthday........

It’s my birthday today and thanks Ling, Janice and Yenny for your early wishes ya. Later in the evening, will go for dinner with hubby and yet to decide on the venue. Still looking around.

I just have my wonderful lunch with my colleagues. Thanks ya!!!

Dinner @ Mid Valley

I’m so full now!!! Just came back from Mid Valley where I had dinner at Tony Roma’s with my buddies. Did not bring my kiddos along, left it with my mum so I can have a peaceful dinner without any yelling and pulling my hair. LOL!!! Oh ya… thanks for the dinner ya, buddies!!!

I’m going to turn 32 soon…… ya soon…… one more day, I’m turning 32, I just can’t wait!!! Hehehe…..

So, don’t know what hubby will get me for my birthday. He is a bit “kayu”… so I don’t think he will surprise me with anything, unless I tell him what I want. What he normally does is, just bring me out for dinner.

A Hot Holiday @ Home

Today did not go anywhere; just stay at home the whole day. Wake up around 9.30am, prepared breakfast, and then my two kiddos wanna go swimming. So we happily changed their swimming attire and went do to the pool and found that the children pool was temporary closed and the big pool was so dirty.

Both of them upset so I changed the plan from swimming to cycling and they went to play at the playground while waiting for the maid to bring down the bicycle. And they happily play around.

After playing with bicycle then they continue with sand art, which I bought from Carrefour last night. Oh ya…. I also bought durian from Carrefour after seeing Miche’s kiddos had the durian. But the flesh was not good. Will go hunt it again later.

True Color

As she knows that she is leaving soon in July but in actual fact is in May, she start to show her true face / f***king face at my in-laws. My turn not yet, I think soon. She also telling my MIL lots of story which I just got to know it yesterday when my MIL told me.

First Incident
Yesterday, she yelled at my FIL coz my FIL said she do things now got head no tail (yau tau mou mei) and said this to my FIL, “Complain la… complain la… complain pada mem, saya tak takut sekarang, saya kerja sampai bulan tujuh saja.”

Second Incident
Yesterday, my MIL did not buy breakfast for her coz there is breads where my in-law bought from Pasar Malam, so MIL ask her to eat bread only and later in the afternoon only will cook. Then she shows her face at MIL and do not want to take the bread and wait till afternoon that MIL fried rice only she eat.

She asked my MIL to buy her gold bracelet coz she have been working so hard with MIL. Then asked my SIL to give her clothes that my SIL can’t wear. She even wants to ask from my sister to give her all the baby clothes that my nephew can’t wear anymore. She tells in-law that she has lots and lots of thing she wants to buy before leaving here.

I’m really shock when I heard this thru MIL yesterday. I have not questioned her about all these and I pretend I don’t know and see what is her next step. At first I was thinking to inform her earlier so she can prepare, then buy her new luggage bag, buy her some new clothes for her to bring back and give extra bonus.

Now, I will slash all these, if I want to be crueler, just ask her to bring back what she brought here. That it!!!

No more phone calls

Since Monday I did not received any calls from Sebastian classmate. Last week alone, they call each other several times a day and I really don’t know what is the chatting. So, I told Sebastian not to call so frequently as you see each other everyday in school except for weekend unless you have something urgent to tell her so does she.

Last night, I asked Sebastian did he call his friend? Or did your friend call you? He said no, and I asked why? He said that I say cannot call many times so he did not make any call. Not that I do not want them to chat on the phone but not as five or six times a day, so I try to explain to him. He agreed with me and he told his classmate too not to call so frequent.

Am I too mean? Do you allow your kids to make call and chat few times a day

Surprise call

Today I received a surprise call……………………………….

From who??????????

It’s from………………………………………………………….

Sebastian’s classmate……….. and it’s a GIRL o.O

When I pick up the called I thought who’s kid playing with the mobile phone, as at that time the line is not clear, then she called second time. She said she want to speak to Sebastian and I silence for a second, then I told her that Sebastian is at home and I’m working so I can’t pass your call to him. Then she asked me to get Sebastian to return her call. o.O

Then I called home and asked Sebastian, he told me is his classmate and he gave my no. to her as she requested it. O.O

Later, I called home again and wanted to remind Sebastian to return her call but he slept already. So, I told MIL about it and to my surprise again, Sebastian already called her. He passed a piece of paper with the phone no. written on it to MIL and asked MIL to call his girlfriend and they chat for a while. O.O

Goshhhhh!!! He is only 5 years old and already had his classmate cum girlfriend called.

My maid is leaving soon............

My maid is leaving soon, her last working day is May 18, but I have yet to inform her and book her air ticket. She doesn’t know that she is leaving us early as she thought her last working day is in July. Not that I want to sent her off earlier as her passport expired in June so her last working day have to be one month before her expiry date of her passport. This is my first maid and she has been working with us for three years, she is very young age 20 only, so you can imagine that when she was first here, she only aged 17. So far, I don’t have any major problem with her, all I want from her is to keep my house clean, do all the housework without me asking her to do so and follow my timetable that I given her when she first stepped into my house. Other then that I just close one eye if the matter is a minor one.

So, will I cope without maid around? I really don’t know.

Last time without maid I still managed to take care of Sebastian and housework but now, after three years of relaxing and honeymoon years without doing anything at home, I really don’t know I still can cope with housework and kids. Now to get new maid is really expensive it cost around RM7k++ where I only spend RM5k+ three years ago. Everything raises even the maid salary, now paying at RM500 – RM550 per month. (Pssstt…. I did not raise my maid salary from day one she work with me, the reason I gave her is she did her job on satisfactory level only and does not exceeds expectations level.)

At the moment, I won’t get any new maid but will get the temporary maid to clean our house once/twice a week until if I really cannot cope then only I will get in permanent maid. I hope that I can do all the housework by myself and at the same time take care of Sebastian and Sidney. *cross finger*

Like Mummy..... Like Daughter

Was doing my own pedicure yesterday night, Sidney running towards me and looking at what am I doing. So, I asked Sidney whether she want to look pretty or not, she nodded. Then I asked her to sit still and let me coating her toenails. After finish coating, she walk around and show her daddy, brother and kakak her toenails.

Lousy Cook

Last few days I was on leave as MIL went for holidays, she only backs on coming Thursday. Now is hubby turns to on leave and takes care of the kids. For the last few days with the kids at home was a tiring day for me. Although I’m not working but I have to wake up early too coz need to send Sebastian to kindy then went to do some marketing, and this really give me headache. Dunno what to buy... dunno what shall I cook. I’ve been rounding and rounding and rounding the market to see what I want to buy for cooking…. And I’m not a great cook so I have to buy something that is easy for me. Luckily I only cooked for three days ie. Thursday, Friday and Monday and these three days already make me go haywire.

Ehh… wanna ask ya… how you the full time mummy cook ya… cook everyday?

So, I told hubby, now your turn to take care of the kids and your turn to do some marketing and cook for me. He said he will just pay and bring us out for dinner instead... LOL!!

2. PRETTIEST MOM TAG ~ from pretty mummy Shirley

I'm so glad to be given this "Prettiest Mom" title, so don't envy ya.... hehehehehe

Before I was a Mom
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby
I didn’t worry whether or not my plants were poisonous
I never thought about immunizations

Before I was a Mom
I had never been puked on
Pooped on
Chewed on
Peed on
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts
I slept all night

Before I was a Mom
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests or give shots
I never looked into teary eyes and cried
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep

Before I was a Mom
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn’t want to put her down
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn’t stop the hurt
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much
I never knew that I could love someone so much
I never knew I would love being a Mom

Before I was a Mom
I didn’t know the feeling of having my heart outside my body
I didn’t know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby
I didn’t know that bond between a mother and her child
I didn’t know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy

Before I was a Mom
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom
I didn’t know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom

Before I was a Mom
I go everywhere I like without thinking too much
I didn’t know much about parenting and breastfeeding
I seldom buy new clothes and other accessories for myself

Before I was a Mom
I only went to ladies dept
I slept whole night without waking up
I don't have to pull my hair and scream like mad woman

7. HOUSE WARMING PARTY DOOR GIFT - from Jo-N

Happy Birthday Sebastian...

Last week, Sebastian telling me that he wants to celebrate his birthday at school likes what his friend(s) does. Then the following day, I went to talk to his teacher for her advice that normally what does those kids would do when they had their birthday in school. After chatting for few minutes, then I decided to get party packs and cakes for him. On that weekend, we went to look for some party packs, which is real cheap from wholesales nearby my housing area. Sebastian is happy and looking forward for his birthday to come.

Stuff that I bought from the wholesales

Stuff that I pack inside the party pack....

So, this morning he wakes up very early without me waking him up, coz it’s his BIRTHDAY TODAY. I bathe him, dressed him and drove him to school and on the way to school, you can really see his happy and excited face, it’s totally different from the normal days he went to school.

A sweet treat from me topped with all my love to wish you a very Happy Birthday!!!

Slowing down....

Hi my dear friends, missing you all so much… thank for keep coming back to my blog although there is nothing here on my updates and I’m still around in blogging world just a little slow. Please forgive me for not replying your comment(s). Lately, I’m really busy with my work… work… and work… when I’m home I wanted to switch on my PC and start blogging but just lazy to do that.

With is a**hole thingy, ahhemmm….. I mean ISO… ya, my dept is moving into ISO now, and there are many processes to follow, really hate it!!! The auditor is coming to audit us in another two weeks, so I have to get all my filling done as soon as possible, almost two months I have not touch my filling. Hopefully everything can be finish up by this Friday. I think this year gonna be a tough year for me at work. Hopefully everything went well. Ok, that about work.

Last two days, hubby went for school registration for Sebastian, I almost forgot about it until I read Elaine’s post. So, quickly called cousin whether she received any notice of registration from her son and asked her to fax me copy. Everything went smoothly during the registration period, so gotto wait till next year July on the news.
