I'm starting to like these kind of movies.. :p

Thanks to my husband, I have now love watching these R Rated movies - strong bloody violence, pervasive language and some drug use. hehehe

We watched In Bruges last night. It was shot in Bruges (obviously!), Belgium. Also, a sightseeing film! I'm starting to like Belgium, sort of a fairytale city with the old,historical buildings & the canal! Anyways, you gotta watch this movie to love the city, & especially the comedy in the scripts! It's a mixture of a brutal & sarcastic (& silly!) jokes made by assassins - Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell. But be brave to watch the bloody violence too!

Love it! Love it! :P

We watched Inglorious Basterds couple of nights ago.. Another interesting movie by director Quentin Tarantino! I like Kill Bill (all volumes!), but this is about a time when the Nazi's occupied France. Watching Inglorious Basterds, I almost forgot to breath! Quentin still manage to create a real tension by using his touch of the brutality & blood spilling scenes like he did in Kill Bill. Some of the blood spilling part, I just can't stand it. But, other than that, it's just another good movie by an Oscar-winning director!

Grey's Anatomy..

I miss watching Grey's Anatomy
..huhuhu..
I'm downloading Season 2, can't wait to watch it tonight!

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying

Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Oooohhhhoohhhhohhooohhoooh

hooohoooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music, fell the air
I'll put a flower in your hair

Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Jalan-Jalan Cari Rumah..Makan?

Last weekend, we went to Puchong, Bandar Saujana Putra & Taman Puncak Jalil.. But all you can see in the pix below..is our makan session.. We didn't take much pix of the houses that we went to, coz some are just terrible! & plus one area in Puchong is soooo creepy! takutnya nak imgaine I'm gonna live there! So, here are the pix of our makan, makan & makan lagi!

It all started at Nando's, Subang Parade

Nas posing for the camera :P




After the food arrives, here's what is left.. hehehe

Then,we went to our house-searching journey.. & then, we end up makan again, coz we got lost & tired & wanted to ask for directions (Alasan! *grinn*)

A trip to Sunway Pyramid :)

With Auntie Aah!

I went to Pyramid once after I gave birth to lil' Wildaan, like.. urm last year?.. I went back again my lil' Wildaan & my sis, Farah.. She was more of a tour guide, baby sitter & my companion :)

We were there quite early in the day, we got good parking space & I treat her lunch at the Italiannies :) Wildaan sure had lotsa fun eating his lunch set & playing with the waiter & waitresses, & mama and auntie got the pleasure of enjoying our lunch!


Boy, the complex is huge! We were at the new wing most of the time, going up & down. Wildaan enjoyed the jalan-jalan & the cowboy town & I enjoyed watching him having fun :) Bliss!

I got a kiss!! *blushhh!*

It was nice going there once in a while, but, I still prefer One Utama hehehe.. It's our place,kann Nas?

Our fav dish...

This is ME & MY HUSBAND favorite dish...Ketam masak lemak.. *yummy yummy!* Had this for lunch 2 weeks ago.. too bad crabs are very expensive seafood, if not, I can make sambal ketam, kari ketam & masak lemak ketam every alternate week! LOL! hehehe

Me & Dayana

It was Boxing Day, 26th December, 2009. I was invited to a friend's (her name is Dayana :)) house at the Airforce base, Kuala Lumpur.

She said her place is next to the Istana Negara, sounded very easy to find.. but,to our surprise.. hu hu hu.. we ended up driving to Kuchai Lama, Bangsar, Mines, Bandar Tasik Selatan, & finally Salak Selatan before we finally found the place.. We're really lucky 'coz Wildaan slept the whole journey!

The happy Wildaan!

The area is sooo quiet & cozy, the food was great & Wildaan is happily playing inside the house while his parents eat so peacefully ehehehe After a short chat catching up good ol' times, (it was almost 10 years since I last saw her!), tapau some food, we took some pictures & say our goodbyes..

Hope it won't be the next 10 years for us to see each other again! :)

Behind the wheels ;)

Oh,Nas is not in these pix, because I forgot to take his pix! Sorry, Sayangku!

DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?

This is a very good article. read it.

Those who are still single may learn something from here....

Those who are already married may take it as a guideline to improve your

marriage....



DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?

During one of our seminars, a woman asked a common question.

She said, "How do I know if I married the right person?"

I noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so I said,

"It depends. Is that your husband?"

In all seriousness, she answered "How do you know?"


Let me answer this question because the chances are

good that it's weighing on your mind.


Here's the answer.

EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fell in love with

your spouse. You anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and liked

their idiosyncrasies.

Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In fact, it was a

completely natural and spontaneous experience.

You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called "falling" in

love...

Because it's happening TO YOU.

People in love sometimes say, "I was swept of my feet." Think about the

imagery of that expression. It implies that you were just standing

there; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened TO YOU.

Falling in love is easy. It's a passive and spontaneous experience.

But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria of love fades. It's the

natural cycle of EVERY relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls

become a bother (if they come at all), touch is not always welcome (when

it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute,

Drive you nuts.

The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship, but if you

think about your marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference between

the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry

subsequent stage.

At this point, you and/or your spouse might start asking, "Did I marry

the right person?" And as you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of

the love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with

someone else. This is when marriages breakdown. People blame their

spouse for their unhappiness and look outside their marriage for

fulfillment.

Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes. Infidelity is

the most obvious. But sometimes people turn to work,a hobby, a

friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances.

But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your marriage.

It lies within it.

I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else. You

could.

And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a

few years later. Because (listen carefully to this):

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S

LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVER

just happen to you. You can't "find" LASTING love. You have to "make" it

day in and day out. That's why we have the _expression "the labor of

love."

Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it

takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make your marriage work.


Make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific

things you can do (with or without your spouse) to succeed with your

marriage.



Just as there are physical laws of the universe (such as gravity), there

are also laws for relationships. Just as the right diet and exercise

program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your

relationship WILL make your marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and

effect. If you know and apply the laws, the results are

predictable...you

can "make" love.

General Election Day!

Today, 8th March,2008 is the election day. I didn't register, so I thought I'd just stay home and watch tv.. and my hubby will go back to Ampang to cast his vote. But, to my surprise, I was registered! by whom? I don't have any clue.. My sis, Syida called last week to inform me that I was registered and I'm going with my mum & her, of course. My name is registered to vote at Sek Ren Sri Subang Jaya, SS14.

I've told my hubby, and he laughed at me.. coz I have been so happy that I don't have to go and vote because I'm pregnant & because I did not register. Hence, I went anyway.. Be a responsible citizen and vote for.. I don't remember the name.. hehehe

It was an experience, for a 28 year old me to cast my vote for the first time. Being 7 months pregnant and having to que quite a long que, tires me. But me & my sis got the same room, so I sat at a chair outside the classroom and only went to the door when it's almost our turn. I got my palpitation then, so I was sweating quite a bit. The guy standing infront of us asked me to sit near the door until my turn, but thank goodness the police officer said that I can go in first. hehehe.. Given priority to cut ques.. Finally, a good samaritan. Yeah, it's his job actually pun kann... make sure everything is in order and make sure the pregnant lady goes in first hehehe (;

All in all, I'm glad I went.. Going again in another 4 years time! ehhehe..

Happy voting!

7 months..

I'm currently going through my 7th months of pregnancy. It is kind of tiring, but the excitement to become a mama has made me much more stronger. At a glance, people might think that the baby must be very big, but, the doc says that the baby's size is normal.. I guess, i ate too much of chocolates! hehehe..

I'm purely excited and feeling nervous at the same time, for thinking of being a mama, caring for a child, and most importantly, the childbirth..Having my first baby is gonna be an extraordinary experience. .. but it'll be all worth the pain, the wait.. (;

Can't wait to hug & kiss my baby, and for Nas to become a dada..

Pre-Chinese New Year commotion

Today, a day before the festive Chinese New Year.. I wanted to go out for dinner, at a restaurant just across the road from my place. As I was crossing the road, my husband pointed out to a group of people standing in the middle of the road. Then, he pointed up, to an Indian guy holding a child, outside his window! He's all ready to jump! What a drama!

My husband did what he's supposed to do. He called the cops. Gladly, the cops were already informed and a patrol car arrived soon after.

If it wasn't because I was hungry (I didn't have my lunch..yeah, I know, being pregnant, I shouldn't!), I'd wait to see what will happen. We left the scene for a big meal..hehehe

As this is one of the 'scenes-that-you-don't-get-to-see-everyday', I sent a text message to my mum & my sis..they were surprised as well.. We usually get to see these incident in the news/papers/movies, not in real life..After our hefty meal, my husband went to check whether the guy jumped or not.. And, he didn't, because if he did, the ambulance, the fire engines will be around.. but, things cleared up soon after the cops came..

Well, that's that.. a real-life drama created at my housing area.. It did create a scene despite the 'quiet' surroundings I felt since morning. I guess most people must have took up a long leave to go on holidays..

It was peace & quiet for a moment there..

Happy Chinese New Year!

p/s: I'm 6 month pregnant now! woo hooo! I can feel the baby's kicking.. Such a wonderful experience..
