How To Lose Weight In Ten Minutes

I have dropped 12 kg...(well heck, it was only in my dream!) Muazzam always said "you bukan gemuk, cuma you kena control your weight je"(you are not fat, it's just you should control your weight). Maybe he's trying to say something nice without hurting me. And maybe he's right. But one day he bought me a dvd -10 MINUTE WORKOUTS TO SHAPE UP YOUR WHOLE BODY. What does it means? I was in deep bewildered so i need someone expert to explain pleaseeeeee!!!!!!

Forget about that bewilderment. So I try to do it everyday for ten days, ten minutes per day, yes, it works. I can feel my calories were blasted. But day after day, i was getting lack of energy doing it, even for only ten minutes, i feel like ten hours or ten days long. When i looked myself in the mirror and murmured; I'm not that fat actually, it's just that i'm putting some weight muahahahahahaha Before i've got married, my weight was around 38kg, and nowwwwwwwww...sorry i can't tell you. THIS IS STRICTLY PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL.

After i went thru a laser operation, it was not meant for my weight actually, it meant for my treatment to conceive. I have lost my weight about 4 kg. (This is not an artificial movie ok, it's proven when my friends also noticed about the drop). So i plan to maintain my weight by; EATING RIGHT AND DISCIPLINE MYSELF.

Let's take a look at my higgledy-piggledy diet story -

Last weekend on Saturday, Muazzam's office mate has invited us for his 'kenduri doa selamat'. Over there we were served with daging masak kari (beef curry), ayam sambal (chicken fried with chilli - my favourite), sayur kacang panjang goreng (fried beans vege) and syrup jelly. Actually i did not take chicken for quite sometime since the 'birds flu' several months ago. And now the chicken is free from the flu, alhamdulillah (Praise to ALLAH). And i ate a lot... i took chicken, beef, all of it, senang cerita (is easy to tell). Burpppp....

On Sunday, the following day.... We've got wedding invitation. Muazzam's friend has got married. And againnnn....the dishes were; ayam sambal, daging masak kerutup, kari dal (dal curry), acar nenas (pineapple piccalilli) and watermelons. Wowww.....(this was come from my stomach)! Againnnn...I took all of it..aiyoo....and again burpppp..... This is more like taking a vendetta against my diet because at home i rarely cook beef and chicken, statistic - once/6 months (part of my diet but we did buy KFC, McD, Kenny Rogers as we feel we want it huhuhuhuhu) At night, I said to Muazzam 'kita makan ringan-ringan aje la malam ni ok, dah dua hari berturut-turut la kita makan heavy food' (we eat something light tonite ok, we have already taken heavy food for two days). So i have prepared;

1) Tempura Fish Cocktails and
2) Tempura Seafood combo with
3) Chilli Sauce

I simply don't have recipe for these two muahhahahahahahah....It's frozen in the fridge from THE STORE. After we have finished our dinner buttttttttt i was feeling not enough, later i took some famous amos brownies and cookies (O my god!). Hancusss!

Once Upon A Time In China

Zhuhai. Located in China near by Macau and Hong Kong. My flight landed in Hong Kong International Airport after six hours journey from KLIA. Actually a story about China, it's like an ancient story, but suddenly i just remembered the sweet times when i was there. Al maklum la kali pertama pergi overseas (My first time travelling to overseas). When i reached at Hong Kong, the weather was cold, i think it was around 5 degree celcius.

Muazzam said he's not gonna be in Hong Kong waiting for me because i've got accompanied by a companymate. But he lied, he was there and grinned! Surprise la kononnnn....but i wasn't shocked anyway! From Hong Kong to Zhuhai, we took a ferry. 45 minutes later we reached Zhuhai.

For me Zhuhai is a nice town except for the food. Halal food is hardly found there. I prefer to cook by myself. I don't know why i feel so diligently to cook when i was there. I thought maybe that time i got nothing to do (i was one month on unpaid leave) and some more i loved their wet market so much, fishes, prawns, squids, they were all fresh and 'alive'. I still remember until now, how the squids and prawns were crawling in the sink. One more thing, the fruits there were so fresh and 'beautiful'! I ate strawberries almost everyday! Strawberry there was so cheap. We can get a kilo for only RM5.00. Damn...Ohhhh i miss that strawberry so much! Along the way to wet market, we can see snakes, rats, cats and etc. in the cage. They sell it. I didn't expect there was a demand in there! After what i have seen, I have decided not to go to the wet market anymore. There was simply no reason for that! ha ha ha

I am bluffing if i say i don't shopping. There was an underground shopping centre called Gong Bei Port. It was so big and fantastic and bombastic. Here we can find Gucci, Chanel, Salvatore Ferragamo, Burberry, Louis Vuitton bountifully. Don't get jealous, I bought my Louis Vuitton handbag for only RM20.00, but of course it was a fake one lorr..! I don't think i can have the ori one for the rest of my life, so the conclusion is i love the fake one than the ori one...muahahahahahaha

Shenzen and Guangzhou. I went both places. Shenzen is a big city and Guangzhu too. I will share my moments in Shenzen and Guangzhou with you, maybe some other time. That time i wish i could meet Jet Li you know...., but last night he was in my dream saying that he will be my Bodyguard From Beijing!

The Concoction Of Our Life

I believe our life is like how you concoct several colors inside one cup. The result will reflect when you daub the concoction on the canvas, imagine the canvas is your life. No matter what the result is, you should accept it because you are the 'concocter'. If you don't like with the result, you may want to do another concoction and daub it over the new canvas. You can do it over and over and over again until you meet with the word - satisfaction.

There's something flicks my mind when i was doing my 'masterpiece' (wow! See attached. It looks like my masterpiece is not photogenic, ha ha ha ha). I think about my previous time when i was in my position as a secretary. At that time i was not expected that i would be in that position, but that we call REZEKI (good fortune). But i wonder why, some people cannot accept other people's good fortune. I was happy, but some people.......umphh...they were not happy for me. I lost my friends which that time was good to me.... just because of my 'rezeki'. 8 months after i enjoyed being in that position, i was decided to end my 'career'. But after what i have been thru, that was not a triggered factor why i choose to release something which i love the most. Is just that i want to do a new concoction of my life, to change the colors, to find a new canvas and to get the best result!

The concoction of our life is never ever linked to somebody else. Is you who concoct the colors, is you who decide what colors to mix, and the most important.... is you who daub it on your own canvas. So if we don't get a good result, would you think is right to put the blame on others? If we don't get what we want, whereas other people deserved it than you, would you question thousand times why she/he got it?

Well...let's learn on how to concoct the colors properly......and toast to good things!

Me In The Middle

My mom used to say "Anak tengah ni, pandai bawak diri, dia buat hal dia je" (Middle kid knows how to carry themselves). That is true. Being in the middle in the family is quite interesting, don't you think so? I have 5 siblings, and i am in the middle!

Ros my eldest sister, my brother Nawar, ME In The Middle, my brother Can and the youngest, Sue.

All married.

I have once asked my mom, how am i when i was a little kid? She said, "Anak-anak aku semuanya baik-baik masa kecik" (My kids are really good while they were kids). Then i asked back, "Bila besar tak baik ke mak?" (Are we not good now?). And then she answered "Takde la, dah besar lagi baikkkkkkk..." (Nay, all of you are really goodddddd now). That time i confused, because she was pressing down the word GOOD! ha ha ha ha....what does it means anyway?

As my mom recalls, when i was 6, she said i got 5 stitches on my chin. I was fallen down from the slide. And then when i was 9, i got 4 stiches on my forehead, because i was eagerly to be a wrestling star, so i was wrestled with one of the boy from the neighbourhood. When i was 11, i have pedalled the bicycle straight into the big drain! One more, my mom said, i loved to collect 'rubbish' and bring it to home, example; un-ink pen, broken vase, empty boxes, bottles. My mom will definitely throw it away and after that i will collect it back!! I'm not remember at all, but i still remember a bit about the bleeding forehead and how i was bounced into the big drain. Am i similar with Malcolm In The Middle?? Maybe a bit huh?!

Some say, middle daughter/son, has the ability to run their life independently. They just do what they think right to do, they don't care much what people talk about them, they are sensitive and they are simple! At 'positive' site, some people say that middle kids are very demanding!

Only ME can tell....and don't forget to add THEY ARE KIND AND SOFT HEARTED......muahhahahahahahahahahahaha

Spoilt Princess Layla

I have been friend with Spoilt Princess Layla aka SPL for about 11 years. It's such a long long time. Guess her real name?? Tengku Putri Laila Manja... At one time when we feel stress, we will start talking nonsense about funny things, sometimes it's just something start with KEK LAPIS (layer cake), but we will elaborate that layer cake into something that beyond people can think of! It's just ... you know...something that we do to release tension. And i don't think i will itemize the nonsense here!

SPL has two sons. Amir, 8 and Awisy, 6 and of course she has husband, Amy, ?. Don't get your head spinning just to think about the gender...of course Amy is a pure macho handsome man! It's just the name sounds like a female name.

After i quit, our friendship keeps going strong. We were chatting for almost everyday BUT we only chat when SPL is not busy with her work. And our 'intro' conversation is always something like;

SPL: Oi buat apa tu? (Hey, what are you doing?)
Me: Tak buat apa, kau? (Nothing, and you?)

And today, tomorrow, day after tomorrow and day after day... it will be the same. Or if not her start it, i will, my part would be;

Me: Oi sibuk ke? (Hey, are you busy?)
SPL: Sibuk gila, kau? (Damn busy, and you?)

I wonder what's gonna happen in ten years time, are we still going through this process or what?! ;)

American Idol

CONGRATULATIONSSSSS....TAYLORRRR.....!!

I've never been
the one to raise my hand
that was not me
and now that's who I am

because of you
I am standing tall

My heart is full
of gratitude

You were the one
the one that got me through

now I can see
and I believe

It's only just beginning

This is what we dreamed about
but my only question with me now
do I make you proud

stronger then i've ever been
now

Do i make your proud
Everybody needs to rise up
Everybody needs to be loved

This is what we dreamed about
but my only question with me now
do I make your proud
(2x)

Stronger then i've ever been

Do I make your proud?
Do I make your proud?

Although my heart was cracked when Chris daughtry was voted out... fortunately Taylor Hicks is there and he has relieved my wound. What to do, maybe Americans wants to see different talent. Bo Bice and Chris are from the same genre of music. No matter what the reason is, i like both of them.

I do agree Taylor Hicks - SOUL PATROL has made himself to the final. Taylor is Taylor, he is himself. He sings from his heart and soul. Although he got something like 'hunchback' style when he sings, i don't know what to call it, but i still love to see him more and more... The first time i saw him on TV, i thought he has connection with George Clooney! Ha ha ha ha ha... Go Taylor Go! American loves you...(me too...yeeeeha ha ha)

Taylor asked me yesterday; Do I Make You Proud? Yes yes yes, you have made me proud dude!!!

Catherine, i got no comment. Except for her father who always cry a river everytime when he sees Catherine on the stage. :)

The Pacifier

Kids...the most sincere creature in the world. Sometimes, because of their sincerity, can make us feel ashame, happy, exasperate, funny and etc. Example:

Her father calls home and Sarah picks up the phone,

Father: Sarah dah makan? (Have you eaten Sarah?
Sarah: Dah (Yes)
Father: Makan apa? (What have you taken?)
Sarah: Nasi (Rice)
Father: Adik Qayyum dah makan? (What about baby Qayyum?)
Sarah: Dah, dia makan kertas! (Yes, He ate paper!)

Happened to be that time Qayyum was playing with the newspaper and eat it.

Shasha: Kenapa perut abah buncit? (Daddy, why is it your stomach pot-belly?)

One day when my brother bring Shasha to Giant Hypermarket, in front of other shoppers...

Shasha: Abah dah dapat gaji ke belum? Shasha nak beli Pooh! Abahhhh..dah dapat gaji ke belum? (Daddy, did you get your salary yet? I want to buy Pooh! Daddyyyy, did you get your salary yet) - She speaks that out loud. And her question remain unanswered!

When Hakim was 6, He asked me;

Hakim: Mak Alang, tu apa tu? Yang tergantung tu? (Auntie, what is that? That hang thing?) He gaped his mouth widely.
Me: Anak tekak
Hakim: Tekak ada anak?! (Pharynx got kid?!)

One day i visit my younger sister who just gave birth to Leah...

Faliq: Jangan bawak balik adik kita (Don;t take home my sister)
Me: Eh! this is my baby laa...
Faliq: Bila pulak? Mak Alang mana pernah ada baby.... (When is it? Auntie never has baby)

I just give my very sweetttttttttttt smile. The truth is, kids never know how to lie. They talk based on what they see, what they see is what they believe. But i won't get offended by little kids because they are so clean and pure. Suddenly i was imagined how tough Vin Diesel was in The Pacifier!!

Omelette + Fettuccine

Ahaaaaaaaa..... Omelette plus Fettuccine. This is where i've got the name for my blog. Muazzam loves omelette so much but he dislikes fettuccine. If there's no other food in the world, then he wud eat it. I love fettuccine very much and i like omelette too but is not my favourite la, can eat la. WARNING: THIS IS NOT A DESCRIPTION OF OUR REAL LIFE OKKKKKK! Just want to share how 2 different persons, with different favs, with different manner and different gender of course, can stay together happily, alhamdulillah (Praise to ALLAH).

Yesterday i have cooked omelette (again?!) for dinner. My special Omelette recipe -

Ingredient A :
Eggs - 3

Ingredients B (for the filling) :
Onion - cut it into cube
Shrimps
Slice Mushroom - 2 types of mushroom would be more yummy yummy
Blended Beef
Blended Chicken

Butter
Grated cheese
Frying pan (this is important)

How to do it?
Melt the butter, and then you fry ingredient B (follow the sequence). And then when everything is fried. Do you have bowl? Ok, take the bowl and stir the eggs inside it, put a little salt.

Fry the eggs, ala as normal la.... then you can start scattering ingredients B on half of the surface of the omelette. Put cheese on it. Lastly you fold the omelette like you fold your bread when you finish spread the peanut butter on it!

Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....what a delicious, palatable omelette i makeeeeeee...... As usual, everytime when i cook, i will ask "How is it? Sedap tak?" (Is it delicious?). This time my husband said "Sedapppp...tapi hangus" (Delicioussss...but burnt).

Since that i did not receive a 'total' credit from Muazzam, i don't have mood to share my fettuccine recipe. Maybe next time!

Desktop Housewife

Which housewife am i?

Eddie - Lynette - Susan - Gabby - Bree

Today is complete one year four months plus plus i become a housewife. Fuhh...if i convert the year into day, just imagine, it has been four hundred and eight days i have spent my time at home. At day first, when i woke up from my bed, i totally disbelieved that 'hellooo...i am a housewife'.

But life must goes on. After a month, the first thing i have requested from my husband was 'You tolong install internet' (please install internet). And then when internet was installed, guess what? I just like pyscho, lunatic person who has never seen the computer for hundred years. I become a DESKTOP HOUSEWIFE! but lucky i am not a Desperate Housewife.... let me recall the character that suits me, Susan..noo...but i think Mike Delfino suits me a lot! Ha ha ha...Bree...no, Lynette...no...Gabby...oo pleaseeeeeee....maybe i like her pretty sexy face but NOOOO.... The answer is NONE of them. But I think Bree, though she feels like she is the most purrrrrrrfecto wife....but i like the way she makes her house so damn neat and clean. I also want to be like tat one mehhhhh...but how arr...? I know i cannnnn...by dropping the word DESKTOP... (Ooo no...Yuhuuuuuuu...sorry!) You can give me a million reason why i must quit from the job as a desktop housewife, but not a million i will quit. Muahhhahahahahah...

Being a desktop housewife, besides smiling and staring at the computer screen, i have learned a lot of things including how to have this upside down blog. From there i got what i want, especially be able to chat with my ex colleagues! Sometimes i almost have forgotten to do house work (pisstttt...don't tell my husband). When i realize the clock is ding dong at 4.00pm, then i start to keep myself busy with house work, like vacuum the floor, clean up the dusty furnitures and whatsoever! Pretend that i am the most busiest housewife in the worlddddddddddd! And until today, here i am, in front of my desktop!

Tay And The Chocolate Factory

Hakim, boy, 10 - Nissa, girl, 9 - Sarah, girl, 4 - Qayyum, boy, 3 - Shasha, girl, 3 - Afiq, boy, 3 - Faliq, boy, 4 - Leah, girl, 8 months, Kamelia, girl, 3 and Farhan, boy, 1.

Mmm...they are all my nephews and nieces. They are like my own kids. Me? Don't ask. I am still waiting for the miracle to come into my life. Maybe one day... it will come, only GOD knows. Like the song by Celine Dion; i was waiting for so long, for a miracle to come. Everyone told me to be strong, hold on and don't shed a tear...uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..............

Back to my 'kids'. They drive me crazy all the times, they are with different characters. Recently i have to babysit Hakim, Nissa, Sarah and Qayyum for 4 days. Hakim and Nissa did not worry me so much because they are big kids. Sarah and Qayyum? Yes, they did. Second day babysitting, i have heard Sarah has whispered to Nissa, i was on the couch pressing the clothes that time. Actually i was enraged with her personal pronouns that she has used. Normally she uses 'kita'.... and this time was different. Here we go, the whisper;

Sarah: Kak Nissa nak pergi sekolah dah ke? (Nissa, do you want to go to school already?)
Nissa: Ha'ah (Yes)
Sarah: Ada masa tak? (Do you have time for me?)
Nissa: Kenapa? (Why?)
Sarah: Temankan aku pergi kedai sekejap, beli coklat. Aku dah lama tak makan coklat! Tapi aku takde duit! (Accompany me to the shop, i want to buy chocolates, i did not eat chocolates for so long! But i don't have money!)

I was grinned away when she finished her last sentence. Kelako betul la budak-budak ni!

The story about the 'chocolates' are never gonna end. I will talk more about it thru my next chapter.

You jump, I don't jump

Assalamualaikum

I open my arm for any comments but please don't give me harsh critism, because it hurts....uwaaaa...it's like when you got dumped by your loved one, love hurts... that's how i feel (terrible!)

The idea to build my blog because....i think because i don't have work to do. Everyday i just staring at my computer screen pretend that i am at the office, doing some secretarial works. When i finish, i will start watching some dvds. I love to watch the same movies repeatedly...aiyooo...this is one of my shortcomings. I was going crazy with Titanic last time and have watched it for 26 times (crazy huh?!). Admitt....i was crazy that time!

Ok, don't laugh if you accidentally jumped into this 'sinking' blog. Wassalam
