of.weekend update.&.me.

Yea, this is pretty unusual, me rambling on Saturday.(Yea, I'm in the office,alone.Great.)

I'm tired, mentally.

I feel like going back home and doze off for an hour or two, as I had a hard time to sleep last night after C***'s phone call and endless chain of texts. It almost feel like we're still the unmarried couple again. Malam-malam sebok dok bergayut, texting segala. :P

Owh, we're just married. So forgive my clingy-ness(tho I reckon I'd stay this way forever). Give me a break and don't muntah hijau just yet. he he.

Moving on,

I need to do the laundry later, as I have another batch to wash - it's the dark colored one. It doesn't matter if there are only 5 pieces of em. he he. My separate light from dark colors rules are not meant to be broken. Sedikit OCD di situ.

Talking about washing, I also need to scrub the bath rooms, especially the one in our room since it has never been used, yet. Like seriously, it's slightly bigger and brighter compared to the one outside tapi we somehow abandon it due to its distance to our closet room.

C*** even gave me some of his "the bathroom is too big that it scares me" alasan. Sungguh tak make sense, konon takot padahal pemalas ya amat, tho the different adelah so insignificant, like 4 steps jer kot.he he. Yea, we're a bunch of lazy bums.

Owh, on a lighter note, I hate McD's GCB, the chicken thigh with its somewhat rubbery and fatty skin is sorta yucky.Why la tak buang the skin? Fatty skin yang ala lembik-lembik is gross okie? Tsk tsk. Not something I would repurchase in the next 1000 years. I'll stick to McChicken next time.

Haih, there goes my one and only fast food ration for this month. If I were to be fat from fast food, might as well make sure it comes from a good one kan? Ni tidakkkkk. *pull hairs*

Okay, back to my programming.

Ciou.

of.alone.&.me.


Owh, how I dread the weekend(like seriously, at least this upcoming weekend), let me count the ways.

o1. I hafta work tomorrow. What's better than spending your Saturday with the loved one the endless codes in the office? Sob.

o2. C***'s away on his company retreat. Earlier this morning, with a kiss goodbye and luggage in tow, off he went and I only get to see him again on Sunday. Kesedihan.

o3. I hate staying home, alone.It ain't fun. C***, I need a pet cat( or ferret, or hamster or chipmunk) please?

Okie, enough whining.

I'm off, am getting myself a manicure and pedicure - to soothe the pain of being alone.(Could I be more dramatic?)

Yea, it seems like I won't be enjoying my weekend( that much), but by all means, do enjoy yours.

Ciou.

of.curiosity.&.me.


Curiosity killed the cat.

This is the time when I hate being too curious & not to mention, paranoid.

I detest the fact that I'm too resourceful when the curiosity kicked in.

It's like asking someone what smoking feel like, then masa tu jugak la ade orang baik hati nak kasi sebatang for testing and you're like,"eh I'm just kidding,bukan nak rasa sangat pon" *cough nervously*

Ya get the drift? It's like asking for something but when you eventually got it, tetiba rasa menyesal.

It's like being presented with a pirate's map to a hidden treasure, your guts is telling you that the treasure is there somewhere and you're all excited(finally! Aku kaya!), but you'll never know for sure - since all you could see is a piece of map marked with an X.

Haih, boleh meroyan kalau macam ni.

*sighs*

To dig or not to dig, that's the big freaking dilemma.

Hmpp..

I better find the right time to fix this.

What will be, will be, yes?

of.randomness.&.me.

Happy Monday! *yawns*

Let's be random for a bit.

C*** called sometime at 4pm just now, to ask me out on a super-brief date as he was waiting in the car, in front of the office. Like yea, how sweet of you darling, sempat dropped by whilst on the way to the airport. It was like a 20 minutes date, so yea esok kita sambung dating. :)

Yea, you got it right. C***'s away on a work trip (again) today (but he'll be back tomorrow). The 2nd time since we tied the knot, and he'll be away again this weekend as he hafta join his company's yearly retreat. Yea I know, a cue for me to berjimba with the beloved cousins. he he. Tapiiii...on a downside, I hafta work on Saturday and this shall go on for 2 freaking weeks(owh, our bonus this year better be gooood).

During the weekend, we got ourselves a brand new stove top to go with the existing hood as the old one just went kaput. We shouldn't have bothered bout replacing the built-in stove, tapi...when we informed the owner about it, he came up with the most magnificent solution ever, "yea, the stove's sorta old, tak payah guna lah macam tu".

What are you trying to imply? That I should quit cooking altogether since you're such a cheapskate to replace it? Well, fine. We'll get our own stove. It didn't cost millions anyway. Haih.Kedekut macam bende tu mahal berjuta-juta. Bleh.

Owh,besides the stove.

We also bought ourselves a brand new tv which C*** was salivating for (as he's a tv-person, he can't live without em) & brought it back home in C***'s small car(as we're not planning on buying, but the price's so blardy interesting that we couldn't resist). It was hilarious alright, I swear people were laughing at us when they saw the tv and the car, macam nak sumbat pokok into a keyhole, tapi since the big car is still in Malacca, we hafta make do lah, sumbat lah selagi boleh(dan nasib baik muat, kalau tidaakkk???)

So now I have an idiot box to keep me company whilst C*** ain't home. What a price to pay. It ain't cheap,but it worth every penny. he he.

I don't know how to say this without being poyo, but I think I like cooking - especially when I could whip up something that's not potentially poisonous and I have someone like C*** to feed. Watching him eating boleh jadi kenyang, like seriously. Perhaps it would be my key to kurus-ness.

I still have tonnes of clothes to be ironed. Particularly mine.

We need to get a blind for the kitchen. Sekarang semuanya ala-ala see-through. he he.

It's our one month anniversary yesterday(C*** still owes me a romantic dinner as we're too malas to go out yesterday.). Time flies ey? But I'm loving every minute of it.

That's about it.

20 minutes before 8. I better get goin.

So yea,have a great week.

Be good.

of.let's just fall in love again.&.me.


Let’s pretend baby

That you’ve just met me
And I’ve never seen you before
I’ll tell all my friends
That I think you’re starin’
And you say the same to yours

And oh, we’ll dance around it all night
And then I’ll follow you outside
And try to open up my mouth
And nothing comes out right

And I wanna fall in love with you again
I don’t have to try
It’s so easy
Who needs to pretend?
But because it’s so funny
Let’s just think about it, honey
Let’s just fall in love again



Owh Friday, I'm in love. :P

Have a great weekend.

I'll try to enjoy mine, whilst juggling between hectoring C***(darling,a romantic dinner for 2 please) and piles of work(seems like I hafta drag my mounting amount of work back home.sob!).

Be good.

Ciou.

of.solitary.&.me.



C*** will be away starting today for two days - on a job assignment.

Bohooo..

It's kinda sad as I hate going back home to an empty house since I'm not the solitary type.

Honestly, I hate living a life of solitude, I detest it to the bones and it has been ages since the last time I was granted with the 'pingat kebesaran penunggu rumah' - the last time was during my undergrad years (I think) as everyone would head back to their hometowns during the weekend and I would be left alone in our rented place.

It was miserable, *cue sad song playing in the background*

but thank God for internet and C*** - as he would be online to amuse me(tho he was million miles away) else I would just die from loneliness (& some are still wondering why I could fall for C***? Not much of a mystery now ey?). he he.

Well, tho it's not like I love to be home alone without nobody to hector but as for today,

I would be able to

o1. Stay back way longer after the office hours. On a normal day, I would usually stay back for an hour after the office hours end - due to my unofficial flexi hours routine - as I would reach the office at 9.45am tho I'm supposed to be in by 8.45am.(Ingat office bapak sendiri?he he) The boss doesn't fuss much on the timing as he's a firm believer of "selagi keje kau siap, lantak kau la nak masuk and balik pukul berapa pon labu".

So yea, today I would spend more time at the office since C*** is not around, like how my colleague put it "Balik awal-awal pon bukan ade suami kat umah"(Kenapakah ayat ini seperti keji? As if suami takde boleh balik lambat dan pegi berjimba.he he) plus I'm struggling to meet my deadlines, so yea, berusahalah!

o2. I'll get to be my usual malas-nak-pikir-malam-ni-nak-makan-apa self. Tonite I could just stuff myself with kaya toast or tuna sandwich. Ever since we started living in our own place, more often than not, I would find myself driving back home whilst having the 'what to cook for C***'s dinner' issues somewhere at the back of my mind.

I should not worry much as he's not fussy bout food, yes.

Tapi, masak simple ke, complicated ke, still kena pikir jugak, no? I salute those wives yang hari-hari masak. Perhaps I should come up with a daily cooking chart or something eh?

Hmpp..that's about it lah kot, what else to do when C*** is not around?(Besides being sad ala2 drama queen? he he)

Hmpp..

On an unrelated note, last night we went for a simple makan-makan at the bro in-law's, courtesy of the MIL. The foods adelah yummeh and C*** had a wonderful time making fun of me in front of his mum. Haih, will he ever be malu a bit? I know she's his mum, it's only natural for him to be his usual playful-self, tapii saya adelah segan.(My malu-malu kuching masih belum berakhir) Sila bersopan di depan ibunda okay? Tsk tsk.

After the makan-makan, the MIL and bro in law even dropped by for a quick tour of our place. A quick chat later, they headed home when it was already half an hour before midnite. I ironed C***'s t-shirt and khakis whilst C*** took a shower then tido.

I woke up this morning to the sound of thunder, heavy rain & C*** hugging my hand.

He he. Missing me already eh dear? :P

of.amused.&.me.

It's amusing to find your other half, in the kitchen at 11pm, gutting and cleaning the fishes - that we bought in Tesco last night. he he.

Sungguh bersemangat waja, I'm proud of you darling & thank youuuu. Kalau dia tak siang ikan tu, guess who's next on the list? Ahkakk jugak. :P

So yea, we went for groceries shopping at 10pm. We're so occupied with the house chores all day long(plus an experimental masak-masak session, dah terer buat masak lemak cili api yo!ha ha kecoh) and somehow overlooked the fact that we're running low on the foodies, therefore, after a quick dinner, off we went.

Talking about groceries shopping, I always love em as a child since I love to go out for groceries with Mum, it's when I'll get to dump whatever I want in the trolley without even a glance at the price tag, macam owh sungguh heaven.

Now that I'm doing it for my own place,it's somewhat therapeutic for me, in fact even more so now that I get to do it with C***, cuma tak boleh pejam mata sangat lah when it comes to the price tags (kerana we need to menabung for some stuff). he he.

It's unbelievable how you could spend hundreds each week on groceries, padahal berdua jer, mungkin bahana banyak membeli benda-benda yang lagha. Sorang nak ribena, sorang nak nescafe mocha.

*shrugs*

Perhaps we should cut down the unnecessary, yes?

Well, groceries day aside.

We managed to go to Ikea on Saturday as I was lemming for a small pan and pots as Mum's tefal was a tad too big for casual cooking.

So 2 glass jars,

2 cute bowls,

a wall clock,

a toilet brush(balik rumah baru teringat dah ade 2, ha ha. You could never have too much berus jamban,no? :P),

a set of multiple sizes pots

and few unnecessary stuff later(Ikea sungguh dangerous as you'll always ended up buying those unnecessary),

we took a short break for meatballs and daim cake before walking hastily toward the payment counter(sebelum terbeli lagi banyak unnecessary stuff).

We then decided to drop our purchase into the car as we I wanted to jalan-jalan some more. We walked around hand in hand dengan gembira la la la, bought myself a cute tops, a pack of cherries and balik.

Fast forward.

Later that night, after a simple dinner of cheesy tuna sandwiches(C*** requested for it, he claimed I could beat Subway anytime,tapiiiii apakah kata ibu mertua kalau menantu asyik buat sandwiches memanjang? Hmppp), we sat in front of the lappie, all excited about selecting our wedding pics for the custom album.

Half way through,both of us were already dizzy otherwise known as tengok pics banyak sangat sampai nak muntah(literally) as there are like thousands of em, so we settle for everything that caught our fancy and would finalize it again later, which is soon. I hope.

Berusahalah!

Have a great week people.

Tata.

of.routines.&.me.

I'm still sick.

I would be restless in my sleep from the bad stuffy nose and the stinging sore throat annndd I sound like a frog, wibbit!

& C***'s catching the sickly bugs too. Poor C***, that's what you'll get from sleeping next to a bacteria silo.

Well, my first week at work after the looong break is somewhat unproductive. I'm terribly blurry as I was showering myself with all sort of senseless questions all week.

Like "How am I supposed to do this again? What's the password to that server again? Eh..how am I supposed to write this fricking batch? Owh..macam ni."

Sungguh blur ayam.


It's not helping when you have to learn something new whilst coding ( to catch a deadline) at the same time. Masa tu la nak tengok syntax dia macam mana, masa tu jugak la baru nak buat trial code bagai.

Hmpp...

Enough of the depressing blurry feeling.

Let's ramble a bit about my domestic-goddess routines. he he.

Well, my morning is usually an easy one. C***'s not a breakfast-person so he requires nothing. Almost nothing but a cuppa coffee - itu pon selepas ade seorang wifey yang asyik dok tanya "are you sure you're good to go without breakfast?", so dia pon cakap lah perhaps he needs coffee, mungkin dia kesian.

So yea, I'll make him coffee each morning and he would have it before dashing off to work at 6.45am dan saya pon sambung tido before getting up again for work.

I hafta admit that I'm thankful to be blessed with a non-fussy C*** when it comes to food. Our dinner(so far) usually range from pasta, nasi(yang dimasak perlbagai gaya), kaya toasts to sandwiches and he wouldn't mind a bit.

Sangat senang menjaga ini laki
, which I'm determined not to take for granted. Kena lah jugak whip up something special when time permits - which is like soon(kot). he he.

Owh yea, when it comes to house chores, I would usually do it when I feel like it. Yer lah, I'm the all or nothing type of person. I would really do it or not at all. Takde case keja halfheartedly or separuh jalan segala. Kalau cincai-cincai stok menyakitkan hati, baik tak payah buat langsung. No?

So when I feel like it(which is usually after our dinner), I would iron his uniforms(yup, he works for an automotive company, therefore pakai uniforms) which is great, kerana there's no fancy shirts or pants but C*** is rather particular when it comes to ironing and whatnot, so I hafta make sure everything's sharply ironed or I'll an NG(not good) remarks from him.

Yea, being married to a QA engineer is just like that. Lorat tapi tak lorat.

Moving on,

when it comes to the laundry. We used to wash em like everyday, especially during the first few days after we got our hands on the washing machine - as both of us were excited about the fancy functions, turbo air dry and whatnot.

Now as the novelty begin to wear off, I'd usually do the laundry once or twice in a week, like how much laundry could two of us gather in a week pon kan? he he. Membazir air je basuh selalu(baru nak perasan?). he he.

The mopping, sweeping and whatever not would be done when I'm free and taking out the trash is currently being handled by C*** as the 'garbage room' adelah jauh(like the furthest end of our floor, so saya malas. So yey for a tough husband.Bodek sket.). :P

On a lighter note, I'm hoping to drag C*** out for jalan-jalan and perhaps a movie(after we're done with the unpacking).

Gotta run. The QA already checked-out my codes.

So yea, have a great weekend. I'll be enjoying mine.

Ciou.

of.Mondays.&.me.

I love Mondays.

Fine, I lied.( I only love em when when they fall on a holiday or something.)

Yea, whoever loves Mondays must be lying. No?

So here I am, starting my week with a runny itchy nose, a sore throat and an aching body. It's so bad that the doc that I went to see on Saturday asked whether I need a medical leave on Monday. he he. Kalau tak kerana the workloads, mau saja saya cakap "yes please".

Tapi, I have a dateline to catch and it's not a normal one, thanks to the fact that we hafta work on a new framework which I have zero, nada, kosong knowledge on tho all the java thingy supposed to remain the same.

Yer sungguh gumbira
, so like it or not, I hafta drag my sorry ass to work this morning and struggle to digest as much info as possible since I hafta start the coding pronto, which is like..err..tomorrow? he he (ini bukan gelak gembira, ini gelak nervous.)

Owh yea, I'm yet to draft anything about the wedding, I'm not even sure whether I could recall much since loads of stuff happening since the solemnization.

Well, let's be random a bit

  • The solemnization was breezy for C***. I'm truly glad (and overwhelmed with a weird sorta feeling but cry I didn't) as I felt like I could pee in my pants? he he. Dress lah kot.



  • I love our nikah outfit, I love the simplicity of it (& I love my darling C*** in baju melayu.he he. Sila muntah.) but I accidentally tore the train of my dress with my heels. Sob.

  • I love all the outdoor deco and fresh flowers and whatnot that were made around the house. All thanks to dad, it was a wee bit over the top(ditambah pulak dengan certain benda yang tak ikot theme color) but it was lovely. :)



  • I love my last minute small wedding cake. It's lovely but I can't say much about the taste sebab sempat rasa frosting jer lepas tu the cake terus ghaib. Malam baru teringat, "Eh, mana cake?"



  • I'm touched that a darling mak buyong & her hubby came as early as Friday morning for my wedding. Sob sob. (Walaupon lepas tu both of em sibuk nak menyakat orang.)

  • I love my OP, I think he & his teams are awesome, walaupon saya penat nak kena pose memacam.
Enough of randomness.

Well,I'm still digesting the fact that I'm married & I still love to ask C*** all sort of weird questions. "How'd you like being married to me? Are you happy? Being married feels funny right? Ya think you're nicer now that we're married?"

Honestly,being married is like being in love without the misery kot.

It's like yea, no more restriction when it comes to time, behaviors or whatsoever(tho still la ade yang kena jaga especially in public) but still, you're free to be as adventurous as you'd like when you're married - like what we did after we're married for 5 days.

Drove back to KL, then after a brief look at the messy house and kemalasan melanda, so we decided to head for PD instead and checked-in into a random hotel. It's a priceless freedom. Nobody would question why you're still on the road at 2am heading toward the unknown with a guy. he he. It's sorta weird at first, but fun nevertheless.

I know it's kinda early to say this, but being married is blissful and I hope it stays that way. :)

I'm off. Ciou.

of.wedding hiatus.&.me.

I'm back - from my longest hiatus so far. Heh, how time flies eh? 17 days of my leaves are gone in a jiffy.

So yea, we've been married for 2 weeks. 2 weeks of happiness laced with occasional sakit hati(would ramble bout it later). he he.

It's like I'm happy everyday, but sometimes not all day lah - tho thankfully none of those sakit hati came from C*** as he's been super nice since we're married. He even folded the laundry - truthfully,it's one of our kiddish prenuptial agreements, I'd do everything but folding, so he hafta do it.( Ingatkan main-main jer, tapi dia buat bebetul pulak.Syukurr). he he

It's sorta surprising really, it feels like having someone new altogether, in fact I think he's sweeter now compared to how he was before. Macam caring terlebih-lebih pulak. Takper lah, I'm not complaining. I like to be pampered, so what's there to whine about ey?

Well, would ramble more about the before & after the wedding stuff later, but here are some of my favorite photos( kindly click for bigger pic).


Forgive moi for looking like a donut, but I was born like that :P

Us being happy.(Yer,kawen pon kena pakai watch.)

The excruciating but fun outdoor photo shoot. Did ya know what I hafta go thru to get on that train whilst wearing my wedding dress? he he.

I love this pic,kena ade sebab ke? :P

Ini bukan cobaan ini betul-betul. Yea, I didn't intentionally took off my shoes for the photo or whatnot. My wonderful shoes were killing me, so I walked barefoot on the railway track and the OP took a candid pic of us walking. I couldn't feel my toes that night, nasib baek ade tukang urut. :P

That's about it.

p/s: I'm eternally grateful for everything. Alhamdulillah.
