Cuti yang macam tak cuti




The x-ray room and my two knees...

Betullah...hari ni cuti tapi cuma dapat bangun lambat sikit jer...lepas tu stress sebab pagi2 dah jerit kat Imran pasal dia liat nak pegi sekolah ugama... Stress mak tau..!

Went for breakfast at Kayu and then made my way to Pantai Medical for my Pilates appointment. I've always wanted to try Pilates cuma the circumstances that forces me to try Pilates ni memang tak syok lah. Ju In the pilates therapist...(nasib baik bukan Ju On) was very patient and taught me some simple home exercise that I could try to improve my core muscles which in turn will improve the pain on my knee, insyallah...and I found out that Kegel is also a part of Pilates..Tak sangka yerrr....exercise mengemut pun termasuk dalam Pilates rupanya...hehehe...(gelak bodo).

2 hours to kill before my appointment with Dr. Pasu passed quickly reading newspapers and mags at Starbucks with a cafe mocha. The doctor sent me for an xray of both knees and when he saw the films the comment
was the gap between the bones on both knees are closer than it should, which could could be an early sign of arthritis or could be because I'm actively moving at the gym or pasal banyak bergerak/berjalan or anything else that could move the knees. Nevertheless he ordered an MRI scan on the left knee, which was too late to be done today.

The nurses gave me a Saturday appointment and I'm to see Abang Pasu again next Thursday, together with my next pilates session. Malam-malam sikit at home, managed to shoot Khairin doing her High School Musical dance routine. she's really looking forward to the HSM ice tour this month.

Jemput jemput pisang/ CeKODOK/Banana Balls

Burp! Alhamdulillah... dah berbuka semua? We berbuka at home today. Actually since puasa started 9 days ago, memang kami berbuka at home. We prefer it that way. Tak kelam kabut nak solat maghrib di luar although Alhamdulillah sekarang ni banyak tempat berbuka dah provide tempat bersolat. Tapi mana boleh beat buka at home, lepas buka boleh terus lepak-lepak atas katil solat Maghrib kan? kan? So we either tapao from one of the shops near home or wherever we fancy or I would cook simple stuff for buka. Today our menu was : our usual brown rice, ikan goreng selar kuning (yellow thread fish), kangkung goreng belacan ( water spinach fried with prawn paste chilli), acar buah (bought from my cousin) , my husband’s telur dadar (omellete) and for sweets, I made jemput jemput . This is what we call these banana balls or orang belah sini panggil cekodok (I could never associate this beauties with an animal name, though... kodok sounds kinda gross). So for people who asked how to mak...

Japan, April 2018

I was in Tokyo last month. Alone... well there were millions of people in Japan but yeah I was travelling alone. Up till the night I boarded the plane, I was still asking myself “Oi! Apasal nak pergi sorang arr? Japan pulak tu... London kan senang? Gang ramai, semua cakap English” Ok panic kejap tapi tak boleh keluar kapal terbang dah.. So, yup, there I was on that MH night flight with an itinerary for 8 days in Japan. No turning back, perempuan! April was my birthday month and what I wanted was to spend it quietly alone. Anyway, last year I had enough birthday celebrations to last me till this year. Alhamdulillah for good friends and family! Sampai Narita at almost 7am. First time in Tokyo and how do I buy a train card? With a lot of asking (ayam and itik bercakap) and hand gestures. Masuk train Jepun at peak hours and everyone in the train is either sleeping, reading, scrolling their phones or staring into space, all except for a Canadian guy and a Melayu Malaysia yang sama2 ag...

Salam Ramadan

Assalamualaikum and Salam Ramadan! Wow! Hello! Am back! Been a while. 6th day of Ramadan and I’ve been quite good (I think) managing my food intake. Saya sudah tua la; have to start being more serious about what I put in this old engine. So, I was in a 10 days detox program just before Ramadan and managed to bring the weight down by 2.7kg; not much but good for me as it has sort of kick off a better eating habit. People who knows me are well aware that I love food. I used to run a lot so the weight was somehow kept in check. Now that I have significantly decrease my running mileage, the weight has become quite stagnant if not, moved up a bit! Eek! So for those interested, this is my go-to recipe for sahur, which is super easy and super healthy. It’s the Chia Seed Pudding. Lots of recipes online but here’s mine: I use a mason jar this. Just use 5 tablespoons of organic chia seeds ( I bought mine at Bake With Yen). They are cheaper than at your name brand organic shop. I...
