Random Rambles of Lotfi

Lion dance at Ah Kong's We decided not to join the usual CNY get together in Malacca with my mother in law's side of the family, and bravely spend these 4 days at home, well at least, most of the days The sushi party Kasut Khairin in between the escalator So far, we have managed to catch the movie ATONEMENT dengan Kiera Knightly dan James Mc A voy yang sangat aku suka itu.. went twice to the newly opened KAYU near hubby's office, grocery shopping at TESCO, watched lion dance in front of my neighbour, Ah Kong's house, lots and lots of sushi at Sushi King, cup cakes from CHIC Cupcakes, lepak at Fizah's house, HAIRSPRAY today...hmmm...jalan-jalan in Curve..where I saw NAZLAM having coffee at Gloria Jean's. You ARE looking more relaxed...

As I'm writing this, I'm watching HAIRSPRAY with the rest of the brood. To tell you the truth, the main attraction of buying the DVD cetak rompak in the first place was my undying love for John Travolta..(jangan marah sayang..) and seeing him in this movie made my admiration for him soar even more.. Ever since his Grease days, I've yet to see him in another musical..and him playing a big woman in this one., singing and dancing again is so much fun.. Best siot!!!But I prefer Danny Zucko anytime lah...Anyway, I love movies where underdogs win the day!

I don't understand people who are defensive when you point out their mistakes as if it's my fault...Tak boleh ker accept mistakes as a learning process, sayang? Some time in your course of life, someone's going to say it straight to your face and I sure hope you'll be ready for it...Nobody's perfect...But the effort we take to learn from our mistkes is what makes us at least near purrfect...Sorry folks, I'm just venting frustrations..

My table at the good old office, a big mess..kerja banyak lah katakan. Matilah!!! Mek boleh menang gelaran meja paling berserak!!! Ha...much better working condition, new table, new lappy, cool huh? Ewah, ewah!! Budak-budak nih semua....kerja,kerja!..Gelak-gelak plak....Notice the poles...dia orang kata kalau boring-boring boleh buat pole dancing...ewah! Quite sometime already since we moved to this new office that I wanted to post an entry about it but didn' have a chance to.. So today, when half of the office is gone for their CNY break, even though my workload is substantial, ish...tak kisah lah, holiday mood...... Well I can't show the new office without showing you the old one, right? Just to make a comparison between yang lama dengan yang baru...This new office is an open concept office, where the closest person sitting near me is just 2 footsteps away. Which means, no private jokes or anything private unless you want the whole office to know the private stuff in y...

Hari Ahad yang agak mendung hari ni...Fizah ajak pegi cari sungai nak picnic...She cooked her delish nasi lemak...I bought muffins and cakes from the bakery...hehe...We found nice river near Kg Janda Baik. The kids became prunes in the water..We ate, we berendam, we nap...we ENJOYS...huhuhu...Am back at home now.... The weekend is almost over...And if I may say so...what a good weekend it was....So many things to be thankful for...Alhamdulillah...

Semalam saya pegi KG NEKMAT...well..not really but Matrade convention center was completely transformed to become that kampung. When I received the invitation for Ning's wedding, I was really looking forward to go and I'm glad I did, if not to experience the whole scenario, to watch Ning and Omar enjoying their big day... The happy guests and the whole ambience of the place from where this pic was taken Hubby was not in the mood to go so Imran came with me. Lin, Shannen and Kak Intan was already seated in the hall when we got there....Gosh!!! I was really, really impressed with the whole set-up. Betul-betul macam dalam kampung wedding, with goats, ayam, ikan keli dalam kolam, half the guests sitting on raised platforms...and even the menu was a complete kampung fare... Dimana dia anak kambing saya...la la la la Ada my favorite ubi rebus makan dengan sambal tumis ikan bilis yang sangat world...got putu piring, apam balik, people cutting up jackfruit yang Imran ulang 2 ...

2nd day alone in Bandung...After the ghastly breakfast at the hotel....and I should tell you that because the hotel rooms and its corridors are not carpeted it can get quite noisy in the morning as people start waking, walking aro und, kids running to the pool outside your room. Memekak!!! Btw, after breakie, I took the angkut to Cihampelas. The fare was RP1500 so you can guess it's a bit far from Jalan Sukajadi. I've been in Cihampelas the last time I was with hubby..To cut the crap...I did most of my shopping here that I had to purchase a big backpack from Cihampelas Walk or as they say it Ciwalk (aku hengat amende lah ciwok, ciwok...rupanya CIWALK...). There 's a new building in Jalan Cihampelas where an FOS called Blossom is. Eeee, best shopping tak hengat... Also managed an Urut Refleksi...Reflexology lah yang walaupun agak sakit tapi sangat best selepas jenjalan dengan shopping yang berbag-bag. And it only cost me RP45,000, baru RM16 beng...One thing's for...

Ada 2 parts entry katanya...matilah sesekali update blog...banyak ler plak posting... The above line was written last Monday...Nih ha baru dapat sambung...Today is Thursday 31st January 2008, the last day of January..haha like u don't know.... Anyways, ni ha akak nak melalut citer pasal the last 3 days in Bandung without my beloved hubby..kwang, kwang, kwang...Dari DSE, where my friends left me I walked to another FOS along Jalan Dago...apakebende namanya..with new mission now that my hubby's not around...now that I have millions of rupiah to finish off before my flights back on Wednesday...Huwargh....!!! Walked there, with no clear notion of whether the road will lead me to the outlet or not..BUT...after about 5 mins walk, I was there. A lot of kids' stuff. Buy, buy, buy...Then head back to DSE wher I have left my luggage. On the way there, saw a music shop where I borong about 5, 6 cds. Murah bai...Only about RM14, 15 each. Sampai DSE, lepak jap minum ice coffee wh...

The plan was hubby was to join me in Bandung on Sunday, the last day of the working trip. Excited lah kan menunggu the man datang...Akak pun dengan perasaan yang sangat condifent tak lah bershopping sakan masa kengkawan lain macam langau dekat factory outlet tu sumer....sebab tunggu hubby datang nak shopping sekali....Tup...tup at around 12ish when he reached LCCT for his 1.05pm flight, dengan bangganya staff Air Asia tu cakap dengan dia passport dia tak cukup 6 month validity...When I got the phone call from him , rasa macam nak pitam pun ada jugak...Matilah akak nak dok kat Bandung sengsorang for the next 2 nights... We tried looking at other options like changing his tix, while renewing his passport and also other crazy idea like ....mampuih pi lah immigration...naik jer lah flight...apa nak jadi, jadilah...tetapi member terpikir plah takut jadi macam Tom Hanks dalam movie apa tu...lupalah plak title...jadi macam orang tak der negeri duk kat airport jer sampai berjanggut...hehehe.....

The room in Arion BelSwiss Hotel The BIG SPENDERS Ah...ah..ah..ah...Staying Alive, Staying Alive... Juara Limbo Rock... The 'Dangerous' b*#@&!s"! I was in Bandung 2 weeks back for work..well, part work part leisure...like the indonesian say...kerja sambil libur..This was not my first time in there and I sort of know what to expect. About almost 20 of us from the office including the biggie boss, coming along with us were some editors and journalists from some major publications... Pepagi Jemahat yang indah hubby sent me to the office to take the office transport to LCCT. Matilah sebelum Suboh dah keluar rumah... We have been preparing this trip for the last few weeks, preparing the presentation slides and not forgetting practicing some dance routine to be presented to our guests. Matilah...dah lama tak menjengket...tetiba kena menari bagai. But everyone's such sport..Ye ler kalau biggie boss pun mencucuk langit dancing away...takkan lah kuli-k...

BEFORE MAK AIHH!!...Siap hair dryer lagi... We did it...well, no biggie...as at the last minute, I got cold feet and let the barber just cut about 3 inches of his beautiful curly locks... when the original plan was we wanted to chop them all off. The pics say it all.. AFTER THE CUT...enjoying his Baskin Robbins...
