then, that was not all .. on the way home i was thinking of getting a nozzle for my biscuit making ( macaroons)sure , i read and saw the tutorial on you tube and many said that they have been trying to make macaroons and it can be quite difficult to make too..

..well difficult .. smifficult ...!!! .. i will try my darn est ... i should have stopped at the bakery to get my supplies .. but i was rather beat and yes , highly strung too....

men and practicality and men being practical

okay if i were to bantai men in my blog , i have to think of my dad .. he 's a man .. so i can't .. then my post would just have be us(girls being practical/and us not being practical ) but then again it works both ways . if i were to bantai the ladies , the men would have a field trip !!!!

it has to be a win win situation not win loose or loose win on both part .. so how should i post this ? never mind just read the tale ..

we decided to go to Giant . When we arrived there , my mum bought two casserole bowls for herself .... price RM 6.00 each .. never mind the price , she thought she just wanted to tambah her bowls ... it was fine since i received my salary , why not just let her buy .. and it's not every time ....



then after paying for everything , we put all of those stuff into our shopping bags .. bearing in mind of the bowls we just purchased , we , that is mum and i , made sure that the bowls were secured before walking to the parking lot ....


when we got to the car .. man of the house that is MOTH , decided to take out the bowls and place them firmly in the booth .. ( the bowls were in a plastic bag ) . fine , i wanted to tell my dad that ,it was a bad move , knowing what MOTH will tell me , i decided to shut my mouth ..... i did not even tell my mum what he did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


along the way home as we passed bagus at kota damansara , MOTH wanted to beat the light and yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you have guessed correctly and for those who don't know , MOTH swerved the car , my car !!! just because MOTH decided to beat the lights ....


as he kona baring , we heard a sound .... not crashing sound .. the sound was like aiya you know la .... mum told MOTH , 'aiyo , gonela my bowls.'

MOTH replied , 'what can i do , happen means happen la.' meaning break , break la ....see how senang was his reply !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


we reached home, opened the booth , and there laid in the plastic bag was one broken bowl .... silence from mum ,

more silence followed ,

still more silence followed ..

why ? why ah ?

anyway we were cool mum and i .. we watched MOTH walked to the dumpster to get rid of our unused bowl .. but on the brighter side we managed to save the other bowl ...well it's all in the game ...

now , it's time for doughnuts ...

today , means today

today i brought 3 pieces of cream cake , baked and iced by me ... today , thinking that it will be a slow day .. which was not ;i thought that i could relax and have my cake without any interruptions .. but i was wrong ...

i did not eat my cake until almost 3pm .. i was everywhere today ...printing receipts , making sure everything was in order ..

went for gate duty welcomed the children .. went for an assembly in the morning and forgot to have an assembly for the afternoon children ... bummer !!!! then when everything was settled .... we had a staff meeting ... by that time i found out that i was really hungry because i did not have breakfast and even lunch as well .. but i saw someone tucking into a nice breakfast this morning , but i did not interrupt her la .... if not i also would have curi some from her !!!!!


that aside , i think i had a pretty good day .. i cannot actually speak for my teachers but on the whole that is work and it's all in the game ...
tomorrow is another great day and i am so proud of myself that i actually do not miss face book at all ..

transmission oil and the genius

well i love my car .. even though to some, its just a car and not an expensive one !! i still love my car .. i deserve to buy a brand new one but i still love the one that i own now ... when i am driving behind the wheel , it is as good as a BMW so i cannot complain much can i ?


we drove everywhere in that car and it took is to Malacca the last time and we even forgot about topping up the transmission oil , we got to Malacca safe and sound !!! that is the beauty about my car .


lately, my car was feeling unwell.. we did not know. it was all because of not topping up enough transmission oil ... should we change the gear box ? then why there is no pick up ? well ... we drove the car on smooth roads , everything went well .. even my mechanic did the same thing ...everything was OK ... i can't drive up to a slope , if i did my car would not move as i press the gas paddle ....


this morning, i was talking to a genius friend of mine TMK .. oh by the way David Koay you have a smart wife and you taught her well !!!!! that's what she told me to write !!!!

so there it is .. with her being smart and all , i began to tell her about my car and at once with a magic wand , she told me to go and top up my transmission oil .... true to her word .... as the mechanic topped the oil , my car came to life ... it worked and all because of tmk , we did not top up our transmission oil .... we did not know .


as for tmk , she felt on top of the world today so i don't think i should burst her bubble for today ... good one ya !!!

eMPTY

empty .. to feel emptiness , nothing.... a feeling like a sesame seed but it eats you up whole if you leave it too long .....

today, of all days , i felt empty inside .. there was something that was not right and it has been bugging me ... i could not point my finger to it and so i just let it be ... i have been worrying over nothing lately and i think that was the reason that got me down as well ....


i wanted to talk to someone , who would listen , there is no one around ... even in the shower i was feeling empty .... i don't know ..why ?


i only knew one thing , so i decided to talk to God instead .. maybe he could help me and he knows what is troubling me ...at times , my journey for the week would be a good one and most of the times it could be rocky ...


back to what i did . i took out the bible and began reading ...i actually have not been reading my bible for almost a year and a half but i can spend every waking moment chatting online with friends and logging into face book .... and that is bad .. i cannot even spend a least half an hour to read the bible or talk to GOd ....


i know god forgives and it i who fail him each time .. what i read today in the bible has helped me .. the bible says that God will be with me each and everyday and that is true .. HE has !!!!


and if i were to worry about many things , i should just relax because GOD Takes care or everything .. even the animals in HIS kingdom ...i felt better after that and i know it's because i have faith . GOd will help me ...


.. come to feast of heaven and earth .. come to the table of plenty , God will provide for all that we need , here at the table of plenty ......

of ol' friends

yesterday , we attended a memorial service for a very nice lady , who made her journey to be with the good LORd ...


after mass , as we entered the hall .. we noticed that most of our friends were there to welcome us with open arms .. there in the hall the food was laid , the tables were set .. friends came from near and far and there was music at the back ground .. it was not the kind of music that one would play during a memorial service .. it was rather a mix of tunes from the 70's to country and western numbers ... i guess Aunty Leoni just loves her country and western songs !!!!

that aside, i would say that yesterday was a gathering of close knitted friends and families .. before dinner , we had a short prayer and food was served .. there was a lot of laughter and mingling .. i even caught up with most of our neighbors and even my kindergarten student who is now 15 years old ... how time flies .....


we had a wonderful time and we promised each other that no matter what , we will ,make time to visit them again ... it was truly a day well spent ..

all about HEART

...i don't have the heart to love you ,like the way you want me to ....


at times we don't have the heart to do anything be it love or work but because we love what we do , we find it in our hearts to give our best to our work and even in our relationships with one another . it could be with your family , friends , cousins , grandparents or parents ....


having the heart to love all of the people above means ,loving unconditionally with your heart and soul regardless of the faults made by these people above .. and who are these people ? YOUR FAMILIES .... FAMILIA .


it's not easy to love someone .. we have to earn and give our love .. like me maybe i have been single for so long and i am comfortable with my own skin ... i practically can do what i please and there is no one to stop me .... that is a good point .. but at the same time i feel, that there is something lacking in my life .. and this concerns the matters of the heart ...



just this morning i was telling my dad when it comes to men .. i loose hands down !!! yup , i said it ... even my aunt's grand niece , told her friend .. proudly .. that i am going to be a nun !!!! that is a complement of the highest order ....

back to why i can't seem to sangkut a guy is, because this only have to be my fault . Why ? because i spent every waking moment working , i don't go clubbing and i have friends who are so nice and dear to me .... but this is all my fault ... i shy away too soon ... but one thing i do know is that i hope that one day i will meet the right person ...

until that day comes , all i can do is pray for it to happen to me ... i mean it's my turn now ...

it's all about heart ..... it's okay if you are missing a limb .. or you're not up to the latest standard or version .. as long as you have the heart , tag!! you're it .. you're mine .......
