Spiderman Alain Robert climbed the building where I work!!!!

I am sure you have read about it already. It's all over the news all around the world and I have no clue when this happened.
Yes, I work in that building and no, I didn't hear any commotion. I was in the office very early around 7am and did not realise someone was climbing the building. I was either in total ignorance of my surroundings or was so caught up with work. What puzzled me, didn't it rained yesterday...hmmmm....

And another ignorance on my part, I didn't know KLCC have that round thing on top. I only knew after I saw the pics circulating all over the news. And back in 2007, during his other attempt which he was arrested at 60th floor, I saw with my own eyes he was right in front of the window where I work and was waving at us. All he had with him was the Malaysian flag and a mobile phone with his hands covered with white powder.

My better half was asking why don't the authorities just allow him to climb the building. My answer was simple, kalau dia jatuh and causes the place to be haunted, saper nak tanggungjawab...betul tak!

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!!!!

Company's Open Day - It's A fishy trip!



















After lunch, I was not sure where I should bring the cuties so they won't be bored. At the same time, I don't think I can walk any further. My legs are killing me and I need a break before more walking can be done since after this we will be making our way to Aquaria.
Then, I got this idea to bring them to the playroom in Isetan. They can keep themselves occupied with the toys in there and I can sit and relax. Thank God for making me think of that place. Otherwise, buntu kepala makcik!
The trip to Aquaria started at 2.30pm however, this started with a briefing from the Aquaria team members about this place as well as the security measures. The cuties were already excited to go in and they kept on telling me whether we should listen to this since they have listened to this before. Sabo ler!
So, the journey started. My hero was the most excited one, telling me he saw this fish in National Geographic, he read about this creature and more info, even the one not indicated on the caption. Too much info sayang, Mama dah penat nie.
We even took picture with the python(albino) and some iguanas. We have to pay RM25 for that, nantilah, once I scan the photo, will publish it here.
It was indeed a wonderful outing all together. We were very tired and I silently telling myself, I would not want to join next year, unless my better half managed to get the day off as well. Tak larat ler!
p/s :Luper lak nak criter, we saw Tun Mahathir and wife as well as Agong and Permaisuri while waiting for my better half to pick us up. He took more than 2 hours to arrived to the Convention Center, traffic was very bad. And when I saw this VIPs, I know what caused the horrible traffic!

Company's Open Day - Monsters Vs Alien & Burger King

And again I am doing this skip-suka-hati-aku kind of entry. This time we're back to the our company's Open Day event. After the event held @ Mercu, we went on the

bus back to KLCC for a movie and followed by lunch after that. The chosen movie was Monsters Vs Alien the latest movie shown @ cinemas currently.
The cuties were very excited since they have seen the adverts on this movie on the billboards as well as the advert on TV. While hearing the talk held earlier, they kept on asking me when are we seeing the movie and the next question was when are we going to Aquaria. Looks like they are just into the fun stuff and not so into the educational bit of the trip.
While taking this photo, Cik Wan was telling me "mana boleh ambik gambar dalam cinema". Hahaha!!! Memang tak boleh Cik Wan but since this is the only chance I can do so, mesti lah nak take the opportunity kan. Otherwise, I may be accused on trying to film this movie and then jadik tokey DVD harams......
I have to be honest again, I was really tired and I slept just after 10 minutes the movie started. My baby told me I was really sound asleep as she was asking me for water and I did not respond.
When I woke up, about 15 minutes before the movie end, I noticed I was not the only parent sleeping in the cinema. Most of them were still sleeping! See how tired the people I worked with kan? So, due to this, no review can be given. But, the cuties loved the movie!
Then, we had lunch @ Burger King, KLCC. Frankly, that's not the best choice to eat at that hour especially when we have to beat the other lunch crowd. Ended up, some of the participants did not get to sit and took the lunch and ate them elsewhere. I guess, the organiser must have their reason for choosing this location.
My hero was so hungry, he finished the whole Whopper by himself. Mula2 nak share dengan Mama konon, but when I saw him eating this non-stop, I told him to just finish the whole burger.
Next stop, the Aquaria!!! Not only the cuties looked forward for this trip, I love Aquaria myself.
Aquaria, here we come!!!!

Company's Open Day - Half Day @ Mercu

After we reached the KSO office, we had to walk over to the next building and cross the road. There were polis bantuan there to help us cross to the other side safely. The cuties were getting very excited, they don't usually get the chance to take a bus to anywhere. That is why, we decided to go to KLCC first so that they can experience the bus ride. Though it's such a short distance, it meant alot to the cuties.

Once we reached our destination, we were taken to level 26 for our breakfast. They were serving fried rice and some sandwiches with kuih. I think the cuties were not really into eating, they just want to know what's the activities in line this morning.
When they saw kids at the next table started to get pieces of papers for them to colour, they started to feel uneasy and impatient. I told them, they will only get theirs once they finish their food. That definitely help them to finish their food.

They were into colouring mode once they get the paper. I told them I have to leave for awhile to get some work done and for them to call me once they are done.

There was a talk from Tan Sri Dr Jemilah, the leader of Mercy Malaysia on Palestine. As much as I want the cuties to pay attention, I guess I couldn't blame them to feel a little bit bored. Then, they became awake again when they heard of the prize giving ceremony. They did not win anything though, but I don't think that bother them that much.



Last session, group photo!!!


Next up, back to KLCC. More fun stuff to discover!!

Company's Open Day - Spending the whole day with the cuties

I was not sure at first whether I should participate in this event. My better half couldn't get the day off that day and I don't think I can manage the whole day out with the cuties all by myself. Those who think having a day out with school going kids are much easier than having much younger kids, you will know how wrong you are when your kids reach the school going age. It will not only be physically challenge, mentally as well.

The cuties have to wake up early if we want my better half to drop us off. As predicted, it was not a problem to wake the cuties up since they know they will be doing something fun. Very much contradicts if I were to wake them up to go to school.
We reached office around 7.10am and waited for the bus to bring us to the other office in Plaza Sentral. The bus was supposed to leave at 7.30am and again as predicted many people just choose not to respect people's time and decide to arrive fashonably late causing us those who are punctual to be penalised again!! Dah ler lapo!!

We took this opportunity to take photos around the KLCC lobby. Been working here for the past 4 years but never really spend that much time at the lobby.
The bus finally left few minutes before 8am...
Lots of activities planned by the organiser. Activities which excite the kids and leaving the adults so tired...

What's the activitiy?? Tunggu!!!!

Food Review - Delicious Cafe, Jalan Pinang

Check out another entry on Food Review. This time it's at Delicous Cafe, Jalan Ampang.
Visit this blog for mouth watering delicacies!!!!
As usual, enjoy drooling!!!

Accidental Dinner

I am still trying to figure out why the traffic was super bad this evening. It was bad in the afternoon during lunch and I was told it may be caused by this charity event organised by Cartier where all the attendees are supposedly the rich and famous community. But, when my better half came and pick me up from work and the traffic was getting worse, I was silently cursing if it's because of this rich people again, can't the flaunt their wealth else where and let us go home.

From the lobby where my better half pick me up, after 20 minutes, the car only moved about 10 meters. We felt it's better for us to park our car, have a good dinner then go home once the traffic gets better. Otherwise, we will be stuck in the traffic and feeling hungry!

I asked the cuties what they feel like having and they unanimously wanted to have Pizza Hut, so Pizza Hut that is.


We ordered the package meal where they have the soup accompanied with the garlic bread, pizza and pasta as well as soft drinks. I did eat anything cause I had a good lunch at a new place, which I will reveal later in this blog. Under the diet program, you are not supposed to have dinner after 7 yer adik2......


If not because of the traffic, we would be enjoying dinner at home but we were at Pizza Hut instead. The cuties was enjoying this but to me, there's nothing like eating home cook food at home.....

Zaza's birthday @ Chillis

This celebration was a pre-birthday celebration. Zaza's real birthday is this coming Thursday, but since Fadzillah will not be around that day, and I will not be around Monday till Wednesday, so to celebrate it a week earlier was the most sensible thing to do.

Zaza is a sister I have known since 2005, the day I interviewed her. When she join shortly after that, we became close via Fadzillah whose husband was Zaza's classmate.

Though we don't see each other that frequent, that goes to my other sisters at the place I work at, I will still make it a point to celebrate their birthdays.

We decided to go to Chillis cause they offer free birthday cake(a slice only ya!) for the birthday girl. Fadzillah and I went there early to book the table and Zaza arrived later.

Banyak nyer food, sape nak makan nie...Ended up we tapaued some of the food after that.
The singing and blowing the candles ceremony where the whole Chillis staff sang for Zaza, one of the reason why we love doing birthdays at Chillis.

To Zaza, we may not be as close as we were before, and that is purely because the hecticness of our job nature. Nevertheless, I have not stop caring for all my sisters, though it may be perceived differently. Take good care of yourself and all the best. Lastly, congrats on the promo!

Insaf konon!!

And I thought I was done with shopping........

Until I saw Bodyshop was having a sale with drop down prices!!! And even additional 10% discount for members which I am!!!

And this is what I got

The normal price for this set in RM180. It was marked down to 70% discoust with another additional 10% for members so I paid RM48.60 for this
The bath gel and facial scrub for my better half. Both cost less than RM50 in total.The lipstick is RM26 and it's for me of course!
I got this for my mom. The normal price is RM99 and with the 40% discount and the 10% additional, this cost me less than RM50.
There are few more things I got which I left those in the office for my gym bag.
I can't go down to KLCC anymore, or I will keep on spending...What happened to my will power!!! (If I ever had one)

Friday Nite Dinner - A&W KLCC

As usual, Friday nite is the eat out nite, just to close off a very hectic week, keeping up with the schedules, waking up very early in the morning and just getting on average 4-5 hours sleep every day(for me and my better half that is, for the cuties, we make sure they'll get at least 7-8 hours sleep daily).
This time we had to eat out at KLCC. I was working late and by the time the cuties and my better half reached KLCC around 7.15pm, I was still stuck in the office trying to finish up my work ASAP. I only get to leave the office around 8.30pm. I suggested to eat at Chillis but my better half don't really like the idea cause he knew we would have to wait to be seated and then more waiting for the food pulak.
We let the cuties to decided and unanimously they chose A&W simply because there's none around where we live now. They seems to miss A&W quite a lot.

We ordered quite a variety of food, Mozza Burger, Coney Dog, Fried Chicken, Cheese Burger and of course the Floats and Onion Rings, which is a sin if this are not ordered if you visit A&W.


It was indeed another good dinner, with good conversations with people I love the most. And that's what made any food taste very good!

Farewell Lunch - Moving Building

We are losing a great team member and a great friend to me, Faz. Nope, she is not leaving the company, she is leaving the building.

Her team has moved to another venue, about 15 minutes of LRT ride from KLCC. So, to mark this not so joyous event, we took her out for lunch. More like a farewell lunch kind of this.
Faz is a great person. She has thought me a lot and I enjoyed working for her projects. She is a calm person and have this talent when it comes to solve problems creatively.

The venue chosen, Pelita near KLCC.

The menu, of course Kari Kepala Ikan as the main dish.

The crew, the people I enjoyed their company the most in my division.

It was raining half way eating causing us to be stuck in Pelita. But, it was a good stuck kind of thing as we really had good conversations and laugh.

Faz will be missed, not only by me, by the crew as well. Don't forget to visit ya!

Kuat giler sampai boleh tolak bas

This picture was takenon my back after a long working day. This happened in front of the Prince Court Hospital. I was wondering what happened at this junction. Very long que, not like the usual que.
As I got nearer to the junction, then only I saw a bus was stuck there and there's this self pro-claimed Superman was pushing this bus. Macam ler kuat...
And guess what, the bus was moving....Cayalah!
I guess there is hero in everyone of us...And size does not matter!

Second birthday celebration for the year

Once we start, there's no way we can stop. Then, it will be one birthday after another. Good luck azrul! (HIHIHI...)
So, last Friday, it's one of my bosses's birthday. It's En Kamal.
From the first day I met En Kamal, I have such a great respect for him. I always considered him as my HR Guru and always go back to him to get information and knowledge as I am very inexperienced in this area.


I love the way he explains things and make it so easy to understand. So, to be part of his birthday celebration is a truly honour.



He did not expect this. He must have thought we have forgotten about it. Great acting from Maryam! He did not see this coming. (or he did but a better actor than Maryam).

To En Kamal, believe me when I say, age is just a number.......(and that's another denial statement from people who are ageing...hihihihi)

What mother does best?

Being a mother, there are alot of job scopes. Apart from cleaning, cooking and other chores, shopping for the children clothes would be one of the things that mothers need to do and the part this mother loves to do.
This month alone I've done shopping for the cuties twice! But, I have my reasons, they have outgrown their clothes(Yelah tu, another denial statement)
These are the items purchased...
My better half is complaining I have purchased soooo many clothes for the cuties. Well, if you are a mother, you would know, it's more satifying to buy your childrens' clothes rather than purchasing for your own...hhhhmmmmmm, priceless!

Nasi Lemak Tanglin

Asik mengidam jer kan, mengandungnyer tak jugak...
So, this time I was craving for nasi lemak tanglin. Quite sometime since I had those. It's quite difficult to go there since the location is quite a distance from both home and office.
Alhamdulilah, someone was kind enough to purchase this for me.
But, the taste is quite dissapointing, not even near from how I remembered it taste like. And to make matter worse, they forgot to put the sambal. Nasi lemak without sambal is not nasi lemak!! And this nasi lemak was accompanies by air tekan2(sebab malas bancuh)
But, what makes it a good breakfast, when you share this with the people whom you enjoy their company....In this case, Azrul & Wati
A good start for a working day.
