Orang kata, kita hanya merancang tp in the end Tuhan jugak yg tentukan.

Aku sekarang tgh bercuti panjang. MD adviced me to take long leave until delivery due to my severe morning sickness. Seriously apa aku makan semua nak muntah balik. Panel clinic adviced me to seek further treatment at hospital to let water drip into my body. Tapi so far aku tak pegi lg, sbb aku rasa ok bila kat rumah. still force myself to eat, but muntah2 bila pg je.Tapi bila kat opis sgtlah disaster tak kira pagi petang. Sampai rasa helpless. Aku rasa toilet pun dah boring tgk muka aku.

Thinking back, somehow aku rasa aku leh tau what contribute to this. Our main business deals with lots of chemical substances. Be it from the compounds (resin, silica, catalyst etc) to the solution used during testing (acetone, nitrate, sulphate etc). And me being extra and oversensitive (well, women’s reaction different from one to others) responds ‘too well’ when being indirectly exposed. Aku sebenarnya nak apply leave for a month je nak bg hilang alah, tp MD is being sangat2 caring, worrying abt the baby, pushed me to take leave until Aug. And now here i am, still at my own bed at 12pm in the afternoon. Lazy me.

Apa nak buat eh, cuti lama ni. I should find a way to benefiting this long leave. Hmm, maybe sew something for the baby? should find something that can gimme extra income. Something that i can do at home, or just required few hours/day of working like temp job. Something light, not stressful yet enjoyable.

I called this tuition center nearby, asking if there’s any chance of teaching. Luckily they asked me to drop by to fill up the form which i certainly did just now. When they asked if i do have any teaching experience before, heee.. i answered honestly. I DONT. I dont have any experience particularly with school students. But im used to ‘teach’ during my previous work to hundreds of operators and engineers. and they asked my rate and i answer im not aware of how much is the current rate.. well, it can be discuss later if i ever got a chance to have a proper interview. hihi, kalau ada rezeki adalahh tu.   :WINKING:

Other than that, im hoping that we (by we, i mean me and a friend) manage to get this translation job from this japanese MNC. heard it’s some testing manual ke apa ntah like i used to do for Panasonic last time. we’re in the midst of discussing and proposing our quotation to the company. harap2nya dapatlah… at least i can get some pocket money while having my long leave ni..

hopefully. hopefully.

The Changes

January 6th, 2012

currently im in my week 12.

  • Morning sickness still visit me occasionally. On the worst day, I barely have anything in my tummy as what goes in definitely goes out within 15 mins. Even plain water.  Still could not tolerate any smell and eat anything related to fish, paling teruk is bau ikan goreng. haiyoh, definitely will go bertapa at toilet right away.
  • My sensitivity to smell got worsen, when I even couldn’t stand sitting at my own desk at the office sbb bau carbon coming from the printer nearby. Susah nak jwb bila org tanya what happened to me, esp when half of the entire office is discriminated by men.
  • Crying for no clear reason. Tiba tiba rasa sedih (bukannya tgk cerita kat TV pun), drive balik kejer nangis dalam kereta sorang2. When hubby asked, whats wrong? i just jawab.. ntah, tiba2 rasa sedih nak nangis. heheheh :BIG GRIN:
  • Tiba tiba interested membuat congak2 matematik. Not using calculator ok. Purchased myself Kertas Soalan Peperiksaan PMR 2005-2011 Matematik yesterday, and now ive answered more than 200 questions already!. Dan membeli juga buku latihan Fahami Bacaan Dalam Solatmu which basically mcm buku latihan belajar bahasa arab masa zaman2 skolah agama, yg kena isi tempat kosong, suai padankan maksud etc, dan berasa sungguh enjoy membuat latihan latihan ‘kerja sekolah’ ini as if im attending a tution! Asal free time je nak buat. Sungguh pelik dengan minat tiba tiba ini.
  • Hubby, being more excited than i am, hari hari tanya bila nak beli seluar baru, feeds me with whatever pregnancy things he reads online, push me to start writing pregnancy journal asap dan byklah lagi.. He seems observing every changes happened to me and enjoying every moment of it, even masa aku tgh emo. Sometimes dia sengih dan perati je my roller coaster moods and like i said, enjoyinggg seeing and attending to it. Lucky me :)

Other than that, i think im doing just fine. Semoga dipermudahkan segala urusan…

December updates

December 29th, 2011

lately macam tader mood nak tulis blog. bukan apa, nak spend time depan pc dan mengarang lepas satu hari suntuk mengadap kerja rasa mcm membazir masa. lepas tu weekend pulak sentiasa penuh dgn aktiviti. kadang2 sampai berkejar2 nak buat laundry.

so many things has happened in Dec. early this month, was my convocation. hubby tak dpt follow sbb cuti tak approve, so i pegi ngan my mom n uda. stayed there for 5 days. masa nak pegi tu serabut jugak, sbb kejer byk tak setel and dgn nak menguruskan all things related to the trip (visa, accomodation, rental car, where to bring them jalan2, my convo related etc). seriously planning a trip was not easy esp when u have to deal with a mother who keep asking the progress updates. kejap2 tanya kejap2 tanya. haish. rasa lg pening kepala. plus i was not feeling well the few days before the departure. demam kebah demam kebah + batuk + dizziness + bloated + nauseated.

alhamdulillah everything went well. i managed to handle almost everything by myself dgn slogankata ‘belasah aje‘. i managed to rent a car from from airport car hire yg lg2 cheap from EuropCar or Avis dan sgt2 la senang becoz they picked us up from arrival hall, cumanya tader GPS included je (we drove Nissan March there. heh, first time driving March, tp handling takde la best sgt). tido kat umah my friend a.k.a umah lama i dulu (kebetulan tader org menyewa bilik tu time tu), dan challenged myself to drive 8 hours journey back n fro to Great Ocean Road, from Melb CBD to Appollo Bay ikut jalan tepi tebing pantai yg berbelok2, then balik to Melb ikut jalan crossing bukit bukau lalu all the countryside mcm pekan cowboy tu, singgah Geelong and have our prayer at their mosque. and all in ONE DAY and using iphone gps je. ofcoz balik tu aku collapsed tido tak sedar diri :)

other than that, bawak depa shopping (ofcoz Dec is month of big bargain SALE), sightseeing kat tpt dekat2 and last day to cattle farm utk melengkapkan percutian my brother utk memeluk kangaroo hehe :BIG GRIN:

as for my graduation ceremony, rasa sgt teruja sbb first time pakai robe ok! (ok, i sound so jakun but WTH? :P ). For ceremony updates, hmm. mine was at 6pm, by 7.30pm dah habis (maghrib was around 9pm that time). basically ceremony style sama je mcm kat Msia cuma, kat sini..masa collect robe, the staff akan pakaikan robe to graduands, pin here alter there so terasa mcm best la jugak. second, for undergrad degree, tader hat. master je pakai. phd pakai mcm ala barret. third, yg announce student name utk terima scroll is dekan faculty masing2. fourth, ada valedictorian (best student) speech. fifth, yg duduk atas stage just dekan2 faculty + phd graduates, tak perlu all lecturers yg duduk dgn muka keboringan tgk jam tunggu bila nak habis mcm kat msia. sixth, dekan faculty akan baca each phd graduates’ general theses content, basically what did the students research and their result and findings (which i found very interesting btw) before the graduates received their scroll. and last, kan time graduation kat msia je ada la tokoh2 ternama yg dpt anugerah phd la dr la apa la based on his/her contribution to society padahal dia bukannye buat phd pun kan? well kat sini pun ada, cuma the diff is, tokoh yg dipilih tu MEMANG BUAT PHD and actively in research, byk collaborates with worldwide international ranking uni, research centres, govt projects dan mmg ada contribution to country and worldwide (yg ni lagi aku salute…)

gambar2 time konvo + port cambell (yg lain malas upload).

before masuk hall

masa dapat scroll

tgklaa cokmar dia…macam belantan aje :BIG GRIN:

flaunting my degree.. hehehe (hasil usaha i + kesabaran hubby + doa semua org..alhamdulillah)

yg ni single lg. br 22 thn. tgh buat master EE @ UTM. sapa berkenan, boleh email :P

muka agak penat time konvo. dehydrated. penat sbb sebelum tu dah berjalan rata (shopping kot kalau tak salah). takpelah, next konvo (eh?) on the konvo day itself kena constraint activity. no more jalan jalan. kena mantain comel ahaks. heh, ye la kalau rajin nak study lg :WINKING:

so, touchdown je KL from melb, terus prepare for anniversary celeb on that weekend. kenala pujuk sikit org yg ditinggalkan. hehe.

menggunakan idea2 bernas yg telah diberi dan setelah mendapat approval dpd yang berhormat (nak tunggu proposal approved pun kena follow up..asik pelupa jeeee dia) , dlm keadaan cuti 3 hari berturut that weekend dan seperti yg telah dijangka for sure la hotel mesti fully book, saya telah berjaya membooking Thistle PD at very much discounted rate at final minutes. thank u to my google yg still setting at AU region, so i got this cheap price from website au mana ntah, padahal sebelum tu i check with the hotel website itself, dah stated fully booked. initially i was planning to book Avillion Admiral Cove yg nampak marina tu…tp no luck. tp oklaaa…sgt fully satisfied with Thistle anyway.

nothing much activity. hee. i think la kan, i gave him what he really needs which is GOOD SLEEP (yg lain jgn tanya).

the room that we got combined 2 double bed together with very2 comfy latex mattress. bila space + comfy mattress + nice view…mmglerr heaven. ish. camni kena saving la beli latex mattress.sangat kepuasan berganda compared to tilam spring2 ni. bangun pun badan rasa best je.

other than that in Dec, baru last weekend ‘honeymooning’ at Tasik Bera. hubby ikut program belia apa ntah (was being invited adhoc by his friend actually, bukannya dia join persatuan ke apa pun), so another private weekend getaway for us, yeay~!. mmg private betul ler dah tpt tu mmg dlm hutan simpan so tader menda pun melainkan tasik semata mata. depan bilik pun dah ada pokok balak!. even resort pun tak supply TV dlm bilik, so imagine la life without TV y’all! (errr, aku ni minah TV fyi). dan amazingly during our stay there aku lansung tak bloated ke pening kepala ke, etc. siap join jungle trekking lg sbb nak pegi tgk taman herba org asli kat sana. aku rasa bila time nak jalan2 je, automatic all the sickness gone….hehe. pandai pandai. :)

btw masa trekking masuk hutan tu best jugak la sbb org asli tu tunjuk how they get minyak from pokok keruing (a type of pokok balak). such an informative trekking jugakler sbb pokok tu ditebuk lubang, pastu dibakar beberapa minit..then padam api then  dibiar until a week before collecting the oil (boleh dpt 1L for a week waiting). katanya minyak tu diguna utk buat perahu, minyak wangi, dan as bahan bakar for their man-made obor (even masa hari tu pun dia demo how they made obor..). dan bila obor tu dibakar, bau dia mcm bau kemenyan pun ada. as budak pekan, semestinya aku amazed dgn menda2 ni. hehe.

beside other weekend activity like melaka day trip, dan kenduri sana, family get together sini, i guess that’s all happened in Dec.

as for new year resolution, hmmm. mcm banyak je dlm list? :WINKING:
