the great british circus and surprises

Assalamualaikum :)

This was on 15th October..macam biasalaa in the morning there were birthday wishes, no-cook day for me..pampered all day, no-house-work-and-dont-trouble-mommy day..well, sort of..so we plan to do something special for my birthday and cikgu booked tickets to watch the Great British Circus near our house..i have never watched any live circus in my life so i dont know what to expect..the tickets was quite pricy but hey, its a celebration so why not..

luckily we didnt bought the VIP seat as it was only 2 meters away from where we sat..the view would be almost the same..no animals in this circus just acrobatic performances but we enjoyed every bit of it..they perform twice a day for a month and i just cant imagine how they have the energy and keep smiling and dancing and jumping throughout the day..some was very adrenaline challenging..i was screaming few times..gayat tengok..dahlaa dia buat2 nak jatuh pulak dari tempat tinggi tuh..sorry, no pic as i realized i only recorded video of their performances..

nak tengok orang british, kita pakai baju londonlah apalagi..hehehe

the kids glued to the sit watching the circus..ada spiderman bergayut..memang syoklaa the boys

apalah makna circus tanpa clown and a little dumb act kan..

photo session..the only thing we bought..candy apple, popcorn and drinks were overpriced

we get back home nearly 11pm..on the way back dalam kereta ariq dah tertido..kesian menahan mata dari tadi..suddenly when the kids dah settle nak tido my husband aka cikgu keluarkan cake and nyanyi birthday song...alamak..ada jugak rupanya..hehehe..bila masa dia bawak balik ntah..padahal whole day i kat rumah..BR icecream cake..sorok dalam deepfreezer..hehehe

Alhamdulillah, dipanjangkan usia hingga ke 36 tahun dengan nikmat2 Allah yang tak terhingga..a family that i love very much..

then i got another surprise for our anniversary a month later..a bouquet of flowers and chocolate..hahahahaha..ok, i gelak besar sebab sebenarnya our anniversary was a day before..it was 10th year wedding anniversary and i only get a wish..i mean as usual cikgu tanya nak apa but brg2 i dah tak kisah sangat..i just want it to be speciallaa..come on..10 tahun kot kan..hahaha...biasalaa men kan, lagi2 my husband bukan jenis yang romantic unlike me..i nih memang hopeless romantic, kuat meleseh..totally opposite..haha..so that night sesi luahan rasa..i said nanti, ann ke 15 ke, 20 ke buatlaa something special..every woman suka flowers walaupun kadang2 rasa membazir but bukan setiap tahun pun nak..for certain special year jer..google jer yg buat delivery service..tup2 ada orang deliver kat ofis besoknyer..masa i pakai lawa2, mekap elok2 nan hado..time i selekeh kosser nak mekap ada pulak..hahaha..xtau nak cakap perasaan macamana..kelakar ada, segan ada, memang terkejutlaa..sebab i dah biasa dapat parcel usually documents from my clients so bila orang carik tuh ingatkan clients or one of my online shopping thing..hehe..berjaya jugak surprise walaupun a day late..last time i got a bouquet masa konvo tahun 2004 kot..lama giler..anyway, i really love it..12 red roses and a chocolate..thank you sayang..muahs5

2. since our last holiday at Gold Coast Melaka, we didn't go anywhere else accept balik kampung..so i booked 2 nights stay at Swiss Garden Resorts Residence Sg. Karang, Kuantan this school holiday..starting this year, all staff are eligible for 2 nights at any hotel under Swiss Garden..rates limit are depends on jobgrade..dalam banyak2 hotel, this one looks fun for the kids..tepi laut and ada mini slide at the pool..plus, i have a cousin there yang dah bertahun2 tak jumpa..might as well take this opportunity to meet her..

the kids are so excited that we went to decathlon at USJ to find their swimsuit and new float as the old ones macam mudah kempis..tak bocor but getah yang sumbat tuh macam dah keras n tak tight..

final exam - musim mak2 sakit tekak

Assalamualaikum :)

im not too busy at the office now..but my head seems to keep processing a lot of things..this week is ariana's final exam as standard 1 pupil..during midterm exam few months ago, i was really laidback..i let her study at her own pace and she seems ok except her english..she can read english books but didnt understand most of the words..so, after that usually when i saw that she have free time, i would ask her to do english exercise (very seldom), read english books and explain words that she didnt understand..

so nak dekat exam nih memang bg lebih tumpuan kat english subject..then try buat bahasa melayu pun ok, but bila tang math banyak yang dia dah lupa..even the simple plus minus pun boleh buat mistake..apalagi, melompatlaa kami..dahlaa babahnya cikgu math..maybe from time to time silibus makin advance so dia terlupa yang basic..salah kami jugak tak gilir2 buat latihan all subjects thinking that dia sure ok punya..adoi..weekend lepas mmg semua bertapa kat rumah jer..pintu depan pun tak keluar..only cikgu keluar pegi beli breakfast and some groceries..the rest kat rumah "teman" kakak buat latihan..lepas makan, buat lagi..tapi janganlaa ingat dia takde main..time bg rehat memang main sungguh2..hahaha

semalam paper BM and Pendidikan Islam..dia kata Agama susah sket..actually bila tgk buku text dia, aku pun xtau nak ajar apa..cuma bagitau dia kena bezakan perbuatan yang betul dan salah..hafal dan praktis tulis huruf2 hijaiah..sorry yana, mommy tak pandai..harini paper English dan Sains..hopefully she can do her best..Besok math pulak..mommy yang debar2 nih..ni memang betul2 bagi pengajaran kat mommy..anak sulung, memang jadi bahan ujikaji..next year kena ubah cara belajar..

memang mak2 moden cakap dont push too hard but kita pun kena guide anak2 supaya menjadi orang yang berjaya..kalau biarkan, dia pun tak tau..anak2 tu kan amanah untuk kita..memang excel in akademik bukan segala2nya tapi ia akan memudahkan kebanyakan perkara..nak buat apa2 pun, kena habiskan sekolah..belajar sampai menara gading..orang yang ada degree dah melambak..yang ada master pun dah banyak..diploma orang dah tak heran..eventho i didnt mean to push hard but sometimes i need to for their sake..harap anak2 mommy faham, ini untuk kebaikan anak2 mommy jugak..mommy tak kaya nak bagi harta..ni jer yang mampu mommy bagi..sayang semua anak2 mommy..tima mikhail nanti ntah camna pulak..harap mommy lebih well prepared..

demam drama

Assalamualaikum :)

sajer nak update currently or lately aku tengok cerita apa kat TV..Kdrama pilihan no 1 semestinya because of the wide choice between realiti dan fantasi..cerita melayu adalaa jugak layan sesekali yang happy2, yang kelakar coz kita tengok TV pun nak tenangnya fikiran, tak kosser nak tengok cerita stress2 dendam sana sini..so lets check them out!!

1. LIVE UP TO YOUR NAME

Malam ni episod terakhir rasanya..episod 16..1st time tgk cerita yang langsung aku tak kenal pelakonnya baik yang lead atau yang sampingan..hero n heroin takdelaa lawa mana tapi aura tuh ada buat aku tak jemu tgk muka diorang..tengoklaa korang..best sangat..ada kelakar, sedih, suspen, cerita nih nak kata ringan tak jugak..dia pasal tanggungjawab doktor walau di mana dia berada..walau dalam keadaan apapun..cerita nih fantasi sikitlaa sebab Dr Heo Im dari zaman joseon tetiba datang zaman moden dan berjumpa denga doktor bedah Dr Kyung..Dr Kyung nih pulak memang tak suka perubatan tradisional walaupun datuk dia sendiri amalkan akupuntur..so memula banyaklaa bertekak bergaduh apa semua sampailaa tetiba 1 hari Dr Heo Im terbawak balik Dr Kyung ke zaman joseon..

aseklaa bergaduh

kelakar masa mula2 Dr Heo Im macam bodoh2 alang tengok apa pun teruja

so dari situ baru Dr Kyung nampak betapa pentingnya ilmu perubatan tak kiralaa tradisional ke apa sebab kenalaa mengikut teknologi zaman tu kan..pulak tuh masa tuh tgh perang kat joseon so lagilaa mencabar..ramai sakit tak cukup ubat, sistem kroni antara kaya dan miskin..macamana Dr. Heo survive membodek yang kaya tapi senyap2 membantu yang miskin..

Lama2 diorang pun jatuh hati tapi Dr Heo Im nih ada unfinished business yang dia sendiri kena carik apa dia..Dr Kyung akan bantu dia and the end adakah diorang boleh continue bersama atau masing2 kena hidup zaman masing2? aku pun berdebar nak tgk malam nih..


OST best2 tau especially lagu Always by Hyolyn..bila dengar pun macam sedih jer..aku nih kalau dah suka cerita tuh aku akan download OST pastu bila dengar duklaa reminiscing babak2 yang aku ingat...hahaha..parah

Ni hasil description dari wikipedia :

The story of a doctor from Joseon era who travels 400 years into the future where he met a cold-hearted modern practitioner.

2. REUNITED WORLDS

citer nih aku layan sebab dah takde citer lain yang menarik..hahaha..sebab pelakon2 dia aku kenal..and selalu cerita diorang berlakon best..cuma aku tak bape suka gandingan hero n heroin yang beza 10 tahun..kdrama selalu camtuh kan..suka nau ganding ngan noona (perempuan lebih tua)

anyway, cerita nih pun ala fantasi bila Hae Sung yang dah mati 12 tahun lepas masa umur 18 tahun akibat kemalangan, tetiba hidup semula..dia pun taktau yang dia dah mati masa mula2..kawan2 semua dah 30 tahun dia jer yang muka budak (thats why dia pilih hero-heroin jarak usia agak jauh)..

dia pun hidup balik sebab nak selesaikan unfinished business..nak carik balik sapa yang langgar dia, and bersihkan nama dia sebab masa dia mati, ada 1 pembunuhan and dia dituduh sebab dia dah mati kan..so bagi penjahat tu senanglaa case close..leh baca description dari wiki : 

Hae-Sung (Yeo Jin-goo) is a senior high school student. He lives with his grandmother and 4 younger siblings. As the eldest brother, he has a strong sense of responsibility. Although Hae-Sung has good scores at school, he opts to go to a culinary school to support his family rather than college. At the culinary school, he hangs out with 5 friends including Jung-Won (Lee Yeon-hee). Jung-Won is almost like his girlfriend. On Hae-Sung birthday, Jung-Won prepares a surprise party for him at his house. To keep him away from the house while they prepare, Jung-Won asks Hae-Sung to go to their school and retrieve her wallet. There, Hae-Sung walks into a shocking scene. While trying to get help, Hae-Sung is hit by a car and dies.

Exactly 12 years after Hae-Sung's death, Hae-Sung wakes up on the roof of his school building. He finds himself in the year 2017. Hae-Sung goes back to his family's home, but his family is not there. He has a physical struggle with a man that is living in the house and he is eventually taken to the police station. There, he meets his friend Ho-Bang (Lee Si-Un) who is now a police officer.

Meanwhile, Jung-Won is now 31-years-old and in debt. She still hasn't gotten over Hae-Sung's death. Jung-Won supports herself by working as a kitchen assistant at a restaurant. Min-Joon (Ahn Jae-hyun) is the chef and owner of the restaurant. He has feelings for Jung-Won and tells her so, but she rebuffs him due to Hae-Sung.

One night, Jung-Won finds a young man passed out in front of her house. The young man is Hae-Sung.

3. Duda Pujaan Dara

awww...nih antara drama yang aku suka tengok sebab kelakar n sweet and daring..ehem..macam biasalaa drama adaptasi novel, bercinta lepas kahwin..chemistry pelakon sangat umph..macam real pulak aku tengok sebbaik kamal adli dah ada emma maembong (hopefully this statement still relevant lah 10 years later yer..amiin)

ye, sila percaya scene begini ada dalam drama melayu yer..#asalkan bukan fattah..hahaha

cerita pasal duda anak sorang yang kematian isteri mencari pengganti demi anak..apapun cerita nih dah habis..pendek jer 12 episod..cerita sedih jiwa merana apa semua sampai beratus episod..cerita happy2 pendek jer..tak banyak konflik pun dalam nih..suka budak danda tuh..comel sangat..pandai berlakon..dengar kata diorang nak request sequel season 2 gitu..xtaulaa jadi ke tak..kita tengok jelaa..baca jelaa sinopsis dari novel nih :

Si dara yang bercita-cita mahukan si duda. Katanya duda banyak pengalaman. Pelik-pelik sahaja impian Ainee Marwah.

Lalu, Ainee Marwah bertemu dengan Tengku Razeen. Si duda yang mempunyai anak satu. Dia merupakan bos di tempat kerja Ainee Marwah. Seorang lelaki yang sudah kematian isteri dan mahu mencari pengganti demi anak tercinta, Tengku Rafanda.

Sikap Ainee Marwah yang gedik mahukan duda mana boleh ditahan-tahan. Maka, dia rancang bermacam-macam cara untuk pikat si duda pujaan. Senyum sudah, langgar bahu sudah, main mata sudah, malah jatuh tergolek pun Ainee Marwah sanggup demi mahu menarik perhatian Tengku Razeen.

Usaha bagai nak rak, tetapi lelaki itu tetap kaku macam paku. Muka ketat pakai skru. Lagi yang buat Ainee Marwah sakit hati, Tengku Razeen cair hati pula bila bersama dengan Dora yang Ainee Marwah gelar Doraemon!

“Botol kicap, botol cuka. Saya ni bermimpi ke?” - Ainee Marwah

“Kain sutera, kain guni. Saya tanya betul-betul ni.” - Tengku Razeen

Rasa mahu berhenti jantung Ainee Marwah bila Tengku Razeen tiba-tiba melamarnya. Bercinta dengan Dora, tapi dia yang dilamar. Fuh! Mencabar rupa-rupanya berkahwin dengan lelaki bergelar duda.

Ikan kembung, ikan yu. I love you… - Ainee Marwah

Pengkalan Batu, Pengkalan Chepa. I love you tu apa? - Tengku Razeen

Sakitnya hati bila suami tidak romantik. Tapi, Ainee Marwah tidak berputus asa. Kalau sebelum kahwin dia sudah nakal, selepas berkahwin bertambah nakal. Dia sanggup lakukan apa sahaja untuk beli hati Tengku Razeen.
