Wake Up and Smell the Cake

Good morning. Yesterday was the first buka at home with home cooked food. No instant food, no tapau-from-parents food. I was actually pretty nervous about cooking. Haha! I have minimal experience, always trying to avoid helping my mum in the kitchen hehehe. So I wrote down the things to buy, and I followed Shez's advice, visualise what I'll be doing. Lunchtime, went to get the ingredients that have not been bought, and after work we rushed home! Haha. Ayam masak lemak cili padi. Didn't turn out like what my mum cooks. Not spicy at all because *someone* didn't want too many cili padi. The gravy was kinda tasteless cos too little salt but I think the main culprit is too much water added. I would like to say in my defence, not me either. Haha! Okay okay, too much excuses. But! Practice makes perfect. This is only the start. Other Half being the sweet Other Half he is, he didn't complain :) He even asked for a second helping :) Oh yeah no vege yet! Even thou...

HELLO!!! In case you're wondering where I've disappeared... It's because I have no internet at home. Yup. Hence the lack of posts or facebook activities even. Right now I'm at my mum's place freeloading off the internet. Haha! I'm an internet addict! Just came back from a one week break, now is fasting month, soon I'll be flying off with Other Half to Motherland. But I'll be back. To work. Sadly. Oh wells. I shall look forward to the December trip then! :p Life's been good, I've been a pretty sucky homemaker, but Other Half's really patient with me HAHA. I like to take my own sweet time, even hum a tune while I'm at it. I got to do just that, and take EVEN a longer time, today! On medical leave! Official medical leave. I really am sick, fyi. The only thing I regret not doing (I only realised I could've done it but it was late already) is washing the bedsheets & pillow cases. Darn! Such good weather today! Haha I sound like aunty-a...

I would like to share what my bridesmaid wrote. It is so darn sweet and sappy I just have to share! Friends for life! ;) Love you loads!! At the end of the 2 day whirlwind, I didn't think I'd be hearing from the lovebirds until they came back from the honeymoon. I thought they probably wanted to enjoy the first few days of marriage life exclusively together, lost in their own little world. I didn’t even wanna like SMS Far or whatever. So today (Monday) when I got an SMS asking if I was free for dinner, aper lagi! I was shocked, surprised, super duper happy, and onz ah! I can be such an irrational creature but I really do think that it's so sweet of them that they want to spend time with us when it's just Day 2 of being husband and wife! I think the excitement I displayed at meeting up with them was macam lah I didn't see Far for 2 days straight the past days. Haha. So we had a nice nice dinner, shared stories etc etc. Then, I was even more happy coz we got to invite...

Nervous? Nope. Excited? Yeah!!! 10 more hrs ;)

"You nak apa?" "Hmm ayam masak merah..." "Begedel?" "Begedel... and satu sayur la, I let you choose." " Sayur ?!?!?!" "Ya sayur, tapi jangan yang merapek-merapek ah k." To the man who takes the effort to start eating vegetables for me , I love you :)

It's just days away. I have yet to fill the cupboard with clothes. HAHA. Will do so tomorrow. But but. I think I will have a problem with that. You see, there's lack of space and proper storage. Jialat. Weekend's been pretty filled. Bahay has more furniture now thanks to our relatives! :) And my family and relatives went there to lepak-lepak already. Feels kinda cool! The kitchen had food (doesn't matter that mother cooked at home and brought over hahahaha), a proper lunch was served on the dining table, house is 'livable' haha. Okay lah... Not really. Need to go and buy food, toiletries etc. I HAVE to make it a point to go there everyday this week and bring something in! My brother keeps saying there's no food around. Haha. So tomorrow, the first batch of clothes, and some food. Bahay preparations are much more than this weekend's. And I need my salary pronto . I really pray that everything goes well this weekend, and the week following that. And our li...

I went home late! Whee! You know, staying back at office is therapeutic. Unless you're required to do so ALL the time. No one in office, blast songs, do work in peace. Better than going shopping.
