Henry Ejan



Henry and Ejan. Two of my closest junior engineers. Two of which I would like to say I've 'welcomed' to the nasty world of oil and gas. Sad is the tale of friends departing for the better..Ejan will pursue her journey of finding her place in the coiled tubing world. And Henry will be leaving to look after her pretty preggered self in Norway..



Its weird and hard to explain, the relationship I have with my female work friends. Its like we grew closer in a pressure cooker, and sought each other in extreme times of need, when nobody could relate to the circumstances we are facing on a daily basis.

Do take care. Will miss you both.

Secret Parcels

I'm still scratching my head on how to upload pictures from my iphone. I've had a rough couple of days last week and am not planning on having any this week. 

Its been officially a whole darned month that F has been away and I'm left with my siblings. Luckily Qq has decided to come down to KL and shes tonnes of fun although she does seem to cry a lot.

 My tummy is getting bigger and the lil one is quiet a restless one at that. I doubt that his head ia anywhere near south. I think its still wrong way up or sideways even. Should I feel nervous? I've started on a baby scrapbook and shall continue with a house scrapbook. Talk about planning! I have to design a job that I've never done before..that sucks. Ah well, at least I got someone to accompany me to the antenatal class.. 

 Dear F, please come back soon. I'm bored out of my mind on weekends and I'd really like to get some shopping done.. Thank you for the lovely surprise!! Love you!!!

Masih bulan Raya!




I'm in my 30th week now. And was supposed to have travelled to Penang for a wedding over the weekend. Physically, I don't think I am up for it. Even a short walk from the LRT to the office leaves me panting like crazy and don't even get me started on the pain I accumulate on my back! This week, I vow to leave my laptop in the office..and work on the baby's scrapbook!!

Had a great week visiting my friends' houses. Some big, some smaller. All warm and cozy. I guess this says a lot about how old you are, when you are entering the new world of making house and keeping up appearances ahakz~

My parents are happy in Astana, they've just called. Seems like they are all so eager to take us there..but I'm in a dilemma, whether to go there with the soon-to-come lil' one or what. F has been away for 2 weeks now. But last night we got to talk through viper. So I am wonderfully happy.

Raya 2011

Fooling around on our way to Melaka, bapok la jem jalan tu..

Hari Raya!! Tahun ni sangat la bermakna..Mama and Ayah were around, plus our first ever raya together =) sangat sangat gembira. Abang pon sempat join kami di Kendong, walaupun Kak Liza sedang berpantang di Batu Pahat bersama si Qiesha Qasreena (hueh betul ke aku heja ni). We did 2 nights in Kendong, and 2 nights in Pekan. So fair la kann..I'm anxious about our next raya together but that's a year away.

Lepak kampung Atok best..walaupun Atok sudah tiada. Pagi Raya tetap meriah dengan sesi bersalam-salaman..aku segan la nak mintak ampun berjele2 kesalahan aku kat F. Aku segan kalau aku nages nanti lepas tu mesti F akan usik aku. Dia tu mane reti serious. Which is why I can vividly recall our nikah ceremony. Hahaha BOYY was he serious then. So yes, aku ngelat mintak maaf dari suami aku sendiri. Tapi mlm semalam sebelum lelap aku dah mintak ampun maaf salah silap segal taik aku buat kat dia. Sebok je nak tahu gak kannn. Haha.

Pakcik kata F ni lasak, bagus la kot..one of the boys. Boleh join Paksu buat meriam buluh, siap amek tiang pagar concrete nenek mano tah kek Tampin. Isk isk. Cuma tak sempat nak naik sungai je..sebab da kene balik Pahang.

Vera yakin sangat her tummy is bigger than mine - until she saw my tummy!!

Di Pekan pada raya-2..dah tak brapa nak macam raya la..cause most of the families had already left and everyone was taking their late afternoon nap. Aku tetap dgn spirit raya aku..hari2 aku pakai baju kurung. Menu pon ikut suka je..potato salad, bread & butter pudding, aglio olio pasta, I didn't have anything too spicy. It'd excite my stomach too much later on. I still had the energy to go about but can't tolerate standing up too long. Macam malas. Tapi sakit sbnanye.


This is why Faliq ensists we spend more days in Pekan..so he can catch up on his fav hobby. Poor soul (me!!!) always waking up early with no clue what to do.

Raya ke-3 pergi Kuantan! Yeay akhirnya..tapi semua bangun lambat and F biasa la dgn agenda ad-hoc sokmo dia. Aku tak sempat berjumpa dgn Kiyai..am so sorry. But we did hang out at Toy's in Kubang Buaya 88 and then later met up with Suraya at TC. It was late so I didn't get to walk on the beach. It was nice to meet up with friends. Such a luxury I can't describe..living this 'normal' life. Watched Hantu Bonceng later that eve with the siblings. OK la, klakar jugak cerita dia. Been a while since we watched a movie.

This is your first ever duit raya from Aunty Amy!! Fanboy and ChumChum. I've taught F how to say it like the commercials do.

Raya ke-4, was our return trip to KL. But before we left we stopped by Maran. Arwah Abah F's side..I had a good time. Finished 2 packs of polaroids with the family =) Next year, it will be such a different raya for our family! Am excited..

Selamat Hari Raya Maaf Zahir & Batin
