Last entry & My new home

Hi there. Don't be surprise suddenly there's an entry from me who have been awfully quiet for the last few months. Not by choice, was just setting my priority right.

Well, this will my last entry for this blog. I have a new home now.....

liza365.blogspot.com

Why?

You'll know when you enter the new home.

Thanks all and hope to see you all in cyber space .........

My click here, here and here entry!

Ooooo.... korang mengata aku yer....

Yelah, akak ada blog ke???

Anyway, wanted to have this entry earlier however, time is just not on myside nowadays. As much as I tried to manage and adjust here and there, I got to admit, I still need more than 24 hours a day. Don't we all.

If it's not too late, I want to put on record I had a great Raya. Been to many open houses, the last weekend of Raya was 13 Saturday and Sunday combined. We went to many places, and tried our best to attend all the invites except for the day Adik got engaged.

The last one was at lil^red's Open House which I got to meet my blogger friends. And I am so proud I succumbed to all the sarcasm and remarks menusuk kalbu about the "activeness" of my blog. Then, they asked me when do I plan to blog about this very soon after the even. "Alah, akak buat ler click here, here and here entry!".

Sampai sudah, baru ler nak buat. So here's my click here, here, here, here and here entry for the happenings of the event. And dapat member baru, so apa lagik, click here lah!

At least akak nie takde ler truk macam click here yang nie....Hahahaha!!!

Anyway, will try to be more dilligent in future. Tak larat ler kena perli!!!

lizanorm....alive and kicking

I received quite a number of "sarcasm" from my blogger friends as well as readers. This was mainly due to my long silence in this blogsphere.

Let me share you some...

"Ko dah lupe password ko ke?"

"Sibuk sangat ke keje?"

"Tak bayo internet internet fees ke sampai line ke potong"

"Raya tak habis lagik ke?"

The latest one...

"Sticky mode ke?"

Sorry lah all, life as usual has been very hectic. Not that I don't have things to share, in fact alot to the extend I don't know where to begin. Hence, I have decided to manage my time better as per the following new schedule

4.30am - wake up to cook for lunch, get ready to work and make sure the cuties are ready for school

6.30am - go to work

6.30pm - reach home

6.45pm - cook dinner and prepare for tomorrow's items like my better half's clothing and all

7.30pm - solat jemaah maghrib and dinner

8.30pm - check the cuties homework, do laundry and clothes folding

9.30pm - blogging

11.00am - off to bed

If I can commit to this routine, I am pretty sure I will not be getting such friendly remarks again kan?

So, wish me luck ya! Cause I seriously need it!

Help needed! Please pray Redmummy's Abang for him to get well soon!!! Thanks for your prayers

BBQ Party With Bloggers @ Bandar Seri Putra

The happening crowd!!!!!!!!

The story...

Read here, here, here, here and here....(nampak no malas update)

Yang here nie lak, ntah ada ntah tidak yer

Yang lelain, kita story later yer, busy bangat nie

Little Penang Cafe KLCC - venue which prooves I'm a lembab blogger

I got the text message from this young lady wanting to meet for lunch with the objective to deliver the scarves from Tie Rack ~ that is according to her. Being an innocent and naive person, I believe her suci murni intention, I said ok and we set a date. Of course, tak sah ler kalau tak invite the Red Mummy, nanti tak happening ler the lunch.

So there we were, walking towards the location to meet, dah ler K Red memberi sedas dua kata2 lasernyer " Bila ko nak tutup blog ko?" while I was trying to justify how hectic my life is. Siap buat muka kesian lagik.

Then we met Si Ayu Solo, the mastermind of this whole thing. Her food arrived the same time we arrived so don't blame me for not suspecting anything. Then while we were enjoying our food, I nearly choked when K Red was screaming "Aku dah agak dah" and that's when the little sister whom we missed so much appear right in front of our eyes. Apa lagik, sessi peluk memeluk and buat restoran macam rumah sendiri bermulalah....

lil^red listening to K Red attentively while I was focusing on my food sebab lapo giler!

The goodies lil^red got for me. Did I mention she is my favourite sister *wink*wink*

The 2 lovely red ladies....Love them to bits....

And why does this proof I am a lembab blogger.......

Cause this event happened nearly a week ago and I am just blogging about it now...HAHAHA!!!!

Sticky Mode - 2nd Year Anniversary Contest

I just realised in less than 2 weeks time, this blog of mine will turn 2.

Yup, 2 years old.

If this were to be compared to an infant, I will probably walking but not as fast as I want to be. I would be eager to run, but will constantly be reminded by those who are around me not to be too fast and take it one step at a time.

Well, I do want to be a successful blogger, I can't lie. And I know I am working hard to be one. This is one step for me to reach my dream, to be a full time mother, to work from home and focus on my family.

So, for those who have been supportive, thanks so much.

And with that, for those who are interested, I am inviting you to enter this contest to mark the 2nd year anniversary of this blog.

Simple, just leave a comment on 10 things you learn about me, my life and other relevant points. The best 2 will win prizes. This contest will end on the 25 June 2009, 8pm and the announcement of the winner will be made on the anniversary day, 26 June 2009 10am.

And again, thanks for the support. This will not happen without you readers out there.

Last Day of Contest!!!

Remember this contest???!!

Just to remind today is the last day for the contest which will end sharp at 8pm.

Tomorrow will be the announcement of the winner and also marked the 2 years anniversary of this blog.

What are you waiting for??

Takde le dapat kereta or rumah sebijik but all effort has been made to ensure it's a right gift to be given to the best normalies!!!

Await your entry!!!

Gift from one blogger to another

The much awaited parcel is finally here. It arrived on Wednesday, however, I was on leave and only got it on Thursday.

It's none other than from the pengantin baru, Cik Vagg all the way from Terengganu.

Full of goodies to be shared with K Red. Sorry K Red, I know you came few times to get this from me and I was never at my place, been in and out of meeting. Monday will give this to you yer...

The cuties were so excited to get all this goodies. There's keropok, some sweet tooth and the goodie bag from the wedding.

Thanks for the thought vagg, till we meet again!

The much long awaited birthday party entry

The preparation started about a month before the event. Yup, very well prepared and carefully thought of event despite having to juggle between other commitments in life like work and making sure the cuties were well prepared for their exams.

We have agreed to segregate this event into 2 segments ; the afternoon was for the tahlil and later at 4pm would be the birthday party. Why 2 segments? Cause based on our experience. when all of our guests come all at once, they will be those who we won't even get the chance to talk to. And that would not fit the purpose of having a party when you can't even spend time to talk to your guests.

We engaged McD to organise the games for the party. We thought what is a childrens' birthday party without games. At first we wanted to engage this event company which are specialised in handling this kind of thing, but the quote given were too expensive which we thought it was kind of ridicilous to pay such amount of money.

All the food were self cooked except for the burger and pizza. We wanted to have 2 sets of menu, one for adults and the other one for children.

We also had 2 cakes, the afternoon was the Ben10 cake chosen by my hero and the afternoon was the Powerpuff Girls cake chosen obviously by my princess and my baby.

You wanna know more about the party with more pics(I was too busy making sure all went well that I forgot to take most of the pictures, luckily I have many friends who were doing the snapping of pics for me), come and visit this blogs(ada yg tak update lagik kot), those who were kind enough to travel to our humble home to share this occassion with us.

Gina Manan - who was one of the first person to arrived. Thanks for coming and taking the trouble to make sure she got the right gifts for the cuties,. thanks dear and if you are in KL, let's have lunch

K Red - who helped me to send some of the invites out. I was bugged down with work that I did not get the chance to invite all personally, thanks babe!

Atty - who brought along her adorable daughter and cute little son. Atty is a fun person to talk too and hope to get a chance to get to know her more

Ayu the Sun - no wonder we get along very well kan? We share the same crazy friend all this years without us realising it. What a small world

Sid aka adenium - made up this crazy GBM gang, memang giler2 sungguh! Dah add kat FB kan?

Ayusolo - my tierack supplier with lil^red. Dah jadik minah blackberry yer, sungguh gigih nak mendapatkan storm yg baru itu...so gigih ler menjual more scarves....she came with eliya, entah apa link nyer yer....

Mamamarina - my next taman neighbour. I have been frequenting her blog and when she delivered her third baby, I got her something which I only got the chance to give to her during the party. Merasalah anak dia dah jalan baru dapat the present...

Azrul - my brother who came with Andy. Walaupun lambat datang gak kan. Though it will be sweeter if you guys came to do the dishes as well ;)

To my good and bestfriend Fahmy, who came when he knows the fact if he don't, putus kawan yer....hahahaha!!!

And to all those who came, my sister aka workmate Fadzillah and Zaza, my workmate Pai, my relatives, neighbours and friends who made it. Thanks so much for coming....

The presents the cuties got. Banyak giler, itu belum lagik the cash received. Thanks to all. Our intention has always been to celebrate this with the people we care about and getting all this gifts are a bonus to us. We appreciate all gifts given very much!

Sorry lah, not many pics, hazab betul nak upload pics with this "super fast" internet connection! You can see more pics from the above links.

My spouse aka My Better Half

Here's a tag to measure how well you know about your spouse. (Tagged by Ina)

Rules:Here’s a chance to see how well you really know your husband. Cut, paste and fill in the answers, then shoot, you know what to do. The real challenge is to send it to your husband to see how right you really are.

1. He’s sitting in front of the TV, what is on the screen?

Any action pack or horror movies which I conveniently categories this type of movies as the-more-people-die-the-better" kind of movie, I always complained to him, buat apa ler balik keje penat2 tgh org mati jer kan

2. You’re out to eat; what kind of dressing does he get on his salad?

He is very adventerous about food so he will try whatever dressing available. If I were to prepare salad at home, the dressing he loves will be thousand island

None that I could think of.

The triple decker chicken crispy sandwich from O' Brien

9. What would this person eat every day if he could?

Dessert and more dessert. He just loves dessert

10. What is his favorite cereal?

He is not the cereal kind of guy

11. What would he never wear?

Bright colour shirts/t-shirts..that's a big NO NO

12. What is his favorite sports team?

Not so into sports, this may sound weird, I am a football fanatic while he will accompany me while I enjoy this.

13. Who did he vote for?

I know but I am not gonna tell. We voted for the same person...UNDI ADALAH RAHSIA!

14. Who is his best friend?

According to him, I am...really!

15. What is something you do that he wishes you wouldn’t do?

He hates it when I bring my work home but now he is beginning to understand, it's either I bring them home or I will be in the office while he is at home.

16. What is his heritage?

He is a Banjar and really proud of it, from Batu Pahat, Johor

17. What is his favorite colour?

White

18. What is his habit?

The typical habits most of men has like leaving his dirty clothes all over the house, keep on asking me where is the house key, car keys, wallet, handphones when I repeatedly told him to keep this at the same place, keep on asking me where is his socks, underwear and clothes when this has been stored in the same location ever since the first day we got married...I can go on and on and on...And if I complain, he will say, saje nak bermanja dgn Liza...yelah tu...

19. What is he proud of?

The cuties, he can talk about them on and on and on......

20. Lastly, do you think he will read this?

He hardly logged on the net, so maybe not

I don't usually tag people but I am so tempted to tag the following :

Nad

Shay

Vagg - the newly weds, saje nak ngusik

So there you have it. But a point to note, I love my better half so very much for richer and poorer, for good habits or bad habits(tapi kalau boleh kurang2 kan lah bang yer)

Lunch Date with K Red

For this date, I did not even bother to bring camera cause I know K Red will sure snap2 one....So, pictures here are courtesy of K Red's blog yer

It was an impromtu lunch appointment. She sent me a message asking whether nak catch up for lunch tak? Since I am not doing anything, I told her ok...

Just an intro, I know K Red since 2005, even before I joined the company that we are working at now. We then just click and the friendship continues from there. We do have our disagreement, ada ler gaduh skit2 but never to the extend of jeopardising our friendship. I know many things have been said about her here in my office but for me, I don't make judgement based on others experience. If she(or anyone I know) is good and nice to me, there's no reason why I shouldn't treat her the same. Similar concept kalau this person baik dgn satu dunia but treated me badly, I don't categories that person as a good person). And so far, as a friend, she has never failed to be there when I need her. One thing about her she is very blunt but she mean it in an honest way, not so much about trying to ruin people, but more on trying to tell you something you did wrong. And I appreciate that in a friendship....This is my personal opinion yer, as you are entitle to your opinion, I believe I do so kan, so jgn pulak lepas nie kita yg tak bertegur saper ok?

I am still on diet, so order memang banyak giler but ate only tak sampai half of it. When I go to Chillis, I don't usually order the main course, I like order the salad, soup and the Chillis...makan dgn the crackers, memang best!

We talked and talked and talked. Mostly about our lives. We did some catching up about the new work I am doing and other blogging stuff.

Jgn risau, though diet, I will eat what I want to eat but in a moderate manner. Like this morning, I feel like having nasi lemak for breakfast, so I did just that. Tapi, order pun nasi separuh jer... Lepas tu kenalah exercise...Crash diet nie not healthy lah!

Dah dapat dah

I think for those who frequents vagg's blog would know she is going to be married in less than 2 weeks time...

And I am so honoured to get this beautiful card from her.

I wanted so bad to attend the wedding and witness the happiest day of her life but really couldn't make it...

So, vagg.....

Can I visit you on the 20th instead as I will be coming from Kota Bharu. Itu pun if you haven't left for your honeymoon ;)..

Akak doakan semuanyer berjalan lancar dan bahagia hingga ke anak cucu!

Mari kita lihat siapa yg kena!!!

Do you remember this contest??!!!!

And we have a winner!!!!!

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Please email me your address cause I am sending the gift to you!!!

Congrats and to the rest, try again yer, itu pun if I decide to have contest....
