One fine afternoon, we decided to went to Rakuzen @ Subang Jaya for lunch, despite knowing that we might be back to office late due to the heavy traffic around SS 15, Subang Jaya. Our craze over japanese foods are above all the hussles.

Upon arriving, since we have 6 of us, we have to wait for the table (since we were so clever, went there without reservation). Around 1:20pm then only we got our table and start to order...

Everything on the menu looks so delicious and yummy (wonder if it is my stomach is empty or really is look nice) So we ordered and all the foods pictures are as above except for mine coz when the food arrived, I am too hungry and eat it all forgeting to capture a picture of it.

The food, average.. Not as nice as what I had at Euyuzu @ Eastin Hotel before. Joeey told me that Tomoe @ the corner shop same row with Rakuzen even taster better. Hmmm.. Guess our next stop would be Tomoe...

Am still waiting for a chance to try out the buffet at Tenji...

*Recap of Year 2009*

Today is the very last of year 2009. It is always good for us to look back and review what we had done for the past 364 days beside today (as I believe most of us are doing nothing today coz already holidat mood~).

I started of year 2009 with a brand new job and a brand new position in this company. Although through out the past 364 days there were always hiccups here and there, but I am gladful that I had meet quite a number of interesting people here where some I claimed them as my friend where some, I look at them as a mirror (so that I won't repeat the mistake that was done by them)...

In year 2009, our car were hitted twice, at the same place by 2 different car at 2 different time. Both 2 times also caused us have to changed our rear bumper. Thank God that the car owner who hit us are the one who pay off the bill.

In year 2009 also, I suffered a huge lost when our car were broke in at Carrefour Subang where I lost my brand new laptop, brand new broadband modem, 1 year old Canon Ixus camera (2008 birthday present from hubby), handphone (luckily not expensive handphone), thumbdrive with all photos of Yaya since she is a baby, my brand new Gucci bag (present from hubby after he got his big fat bonus)...

Hmmm.. I guess that's all the bad things happened to me in the past 364 days... Now, happy things!

As all of you know, I become a mother, for the second time this year.. Welcome my 2nd little princess Nur Khairunnisa Bt Mohd Azmir on 27th Sept. Her lunar calender birth day is just 1 day different from my lunar birth day... Thank Allah that I was able to go by normal deliver this time although the gap between my previous pregnancy and this was pretty near. This is the biggest happy news~

Then, just way before the year 2009 want to say bye-bye, me and hubby had viewed and decided to buy a house located at Saujana Putra. It is a end-lot unit with 6ft land at the side, with a very good bargain price. We are going to pay the earnest money later this evening. Hopefully by next monday I will be able to get all relevant documents and start to submit to bank for loan application.

Hmmm... Is that all the happy things that I have to shared? Well, also some other small ocasions from time to time, like Little Princess Yaya's 1st borthday celebration, family holiday trips to Cameron Highland (with my mum & my sisters' family), family trip to Felda Trolak / Hotspring (with hubby's family)...

I think I have had a very wonderful year and hopefully next year would be even a better one~

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010!!

I m a online-shopping freak!!

Was chatting with my cousin - Horyan @ Oyan this afternoon at msn where I posted my shout out "Online shopping, online shopping, online shopping". She was very curious on what I shopped online as she is also kinda into this as well.

So we do some exchanged on the info and I found out that I really do prefer to shop online, compared to conventional way of shopping. Then it makes me to start thinking the rational behind this. And below are some reasons that I think (not sure if this is the real reason) why I prefer to shop online :

1. More convenient, can shop at any time, anywhere

2. No need to be "tailed" by the "over-friendly" sales person at shops / counter

3. No need to wait in the long queque to pay

4. Can compare similar items with a few seller at one glance (just open a few more window or few more tabs)

5. Saving on time, no need to waste time drive here and there, no need to waste time to look for a parking on weekends at shopping complex

Hmmm... the above 5 reasons isn't it good enough for me to be an online-shopping freak? Ohhh, by the way, another friend of mine, ChinChin, she is also another online-shopping freak too!

The latest items which I purchased online :

Barney - Learn numbers with me - purchased from www.littlewhiz.com

Barney - A to Z with Barney - purchased from www.littlewhiz.com as well

* Latest Update From Me *

Just visited Nurul's blog and realised that I have had no new input into my blog for almost 2 months since my last blog which was 2 weeks after I gave birth to Khairunnisa, my second darling baby.

Reading Nurul's input about her experience and the process of her whole delivering of Baby Raina, bring tears to my eyes~ Very touchy, full of emotions and most important, it brings me back to my very own first-time-normal-delivery-experience which is just 1 months plus earlier than Nurul.

Ohhh.. For those who is not aware, although Nisa is my second baby, but she is my very first time normal delivery because her little elder sister Khairiah was delivered by c-section.

All this while, we the young generation always been told by the old generation that we will never know how to appreciate our mum, until we become one. I thought I had knew when I gave birth of Khairiah. But everything changed, totally CHANGED after I gave birth to Nisa.

Reason why I said so? Only those who had suffered the contraction, the labour pain, and most importantly, the pain a mother suffered at the point when the baby is about to come out (malay says, macam nyawa dah nak tercabut dari badan kita). I felt it, finally.

Hence, to all mothers in this world, you are the BEST!

Will post some pictures of Khairunnisa in my next entry. She is so cheecky now, always want us to talk to her. And also alhamdulillah that Sister Khairiah loves her. Still remember during my pantang period (44 days of suffering at home, can't go out from home), everytime when Khairiah reached home from her babysitter, then first thing will be running to Nisa and kiss her. Then she will be busy playing with Nisa and totally forgot about me. She will only come to me when I asked her, "Kakak Khairiah dah tak sayang ibu ker?"

Oppsss... Hubby is here, time to go to babysitter's to pick up my 2 little darling princess.. Bye for now~

Blacklist & Boycott Klinik Ini!!

Ini adalah luahan hati saya sebagai seorang ibu, sebagai seorang pengguna, sebagai seorang pesakit. Sekiranya ada sesiapa yang tidak setuju dengan apa yang bakal dibaca, sila tinggalkan message, mira akan jawab soalan anda satu per satu.

Sepertimana yang kalian semua tahu, mira telah disahkan mengandung pada awal tahun ini. Dan setelah bertanya sini sana, mira diberitahu yang UMRA is not bad for doing pregnancy check-up. So mira & adik ipar pun gi lahh buat check up kat situ.

Mira masih ingat lagi on my first visit, mira dah beritahu kat doctor perempuan yang seorang nie (well, pada yang biasa buat check up kat UMRA, u all know who I am refering to, okay?) yang mira memang plan nak bersalin di Hospital Serdang. And as a experienced Gynae, she should know that in order for me to salin di Serdang (which is a government hospital), Mira dah tentu akan perlu ada segala maklumat check up selama 9 bulan mengandung, betul tak?

Well, despite mira dah beritahu kat dia hasrat mira nak salin kat serdang, and she didn mentioned anything, so bagi mira everything is ok lahhh. Sebab masa ngandungkan Khairiah, mira pun check up kat klinik swasta & masa nak gi salin tu, just jumpa gynae tu and dia bagi segala maklumat pada mira. So I thought it is going to be the same lahh....

9 months comes and goes. Last saturday morning (26/09/09), my waterbag pecah tengahmalam... I waited will morning, so abang & I pun hantar Khairiah to my in law's place then kita terus gi UMRA untuk ambil segala maklumat yang diperlukan. Minah2 nurse pulak cakap, ohhh, doctor ***** tak ader lahhh.. Since waterbag dah pecah, akak pergi ajer kat serdang, diorang mesti ambil punya...

Dalam hati dah memang angin dah.. Tapi memikirkan risiko pada baby dalam perut, mira & hubby terus rushing gi Serdang. One dah sampai, memang sah kena ader segala maklumat check up selama 9 bulan tu! Or else mana lahh doctor kat Serdang tu nak tahu macammana tumbesaran baby selama 9 bulan tu, kan?

So, terpaksa lahhh abang rush balik to UMRA untuk ambil record tu... By the time abang sampai balik to Serdang, dia cakap, Doctor ***** tu tak nak bagi record tu kat abang dengan alasan, "That record is only for the clinic's own used, I can't give it to you." Apa punya alasan tu????

Sabar ajer lahhh.. Memang dah terdetik kat dalam hati time tu jugak, yang mira akan blacklist & boycott klinik sampai bila-bila masa. Dan, mira akan cakap ngan member2 lain supaya jangan gi check up kat klinik unless memang plan nak salin kat situ.

Ingatkan semua dah selesai dah, kan? Rupa-rupanya ada lagi... Semalam abang nak gi buat surat beranak untuk khairunnisa. Sampai kat JPN, kerani yang proses pemohonan abang mintak abang tunjuk bukti check up... Alahai! Kena gi balik kat UMRA and mintak benda yang sama lagi!! So abang pun gi lahh balik to UMRA, sampai sana around 2pm, minah2 nurse cakap, ohh, Doctor ***** baru ajer balik, abang datang balik around 6pm lahhh...

So, nak jadikan cerita, sebab kita pun tak nak lambatkan permohonan surat beranak, takut kena denda. So, abang pun gi lahh UMRA pada 6pm (sepertimana yang disuruh oleh minah2 nurse kat situ)... Sampai sana, minah2 nurse pulak cakap kat abang, ehhh, abang boleh tak datang esok pagi sebab petang nie Doctor ***** ramai patient lahh... Bukan ker nama nyer b*d*h nurse2 kat situ? Ingat rumah kita kat sebelah klinik tu ajer ker? Ulang alik ulang alik kena pakai petrol, tahu tak???

So pagi tadi sharp 9:30am, abang kluar umah antar Khairiah gi umah mak dia (baby sitter dia lahh) then terus shoot to UMRA. After that abang called, rupa-rupanya nak mintak surat pengesahan dari Doctor ***** tu, kena bayar RM 45!!!!! Isk isk isk... Nie memang dah kes cekik darah, kan?

So, to conclude the whole story, I will never recommend this clinik to any of my friends anymore, and please do remember, don't go to this clinik unless u plan to deliver there. Kalo takat nak buat ultra sound and 4d scanning, mira rasa banyak lagi klinik kat luar tu yang boleh bagi servis yang lagi bagus lahhh!!!

So for this clinik & for this doctor, please look back at the code of ethic as a doctor, jangan asyik fikir nak buat duit ajer!!!! Money that you earn now, will not be able to bring you to a better position when you are facing the Almighty Allah!!!

A very Unlucky Day~

Entah cam maner nak start cerita nie.. Hmmm... Maybe I should just keep it short and simple...

Monday night after berbuka puasa di umah ibu, abang told me that he wanted to go to Carrefour Subang Jaya untuk beli pelita for umah ibu & apartment. So mira pun okat ajer lahh...

So around 8:15pm kita pun keluar dari umah ibu and reach Carrefoour Subang Jaya around 8:30pm.. Abang pada kebiasaannyer agak cerewet dalam memilih tempat dia letak kereta tapi malam tu, entah kenapa, dia park kat satu spot yang agak jauh dari entrance, and agak gelap as well.. But deep in my heart, tak ader aper-aper kot, sebab pak guard ader...

So kita pun turun lahh dari kereta and pun entah kenapa, malam tu, mira boleh hanya bawak turun wallet mira ajer, my Gucci bag, my handphone, my laptop yang amat baru (tak sampai 1 bulan), my celcom broadband (yang baru 3 hari mira beli), semua tu mira boleh tinggal kat dalam kereta...

So we went in Carrefour to buy things that we need, kluar dari counter and headed to carpark around 9:30pm... When we walked towards the car, I have that weird feeling that suddenly hits me.. When kita sampai ajer kat kereta, the first thing i look at was the mirror pintu belakang and true enough, it was broken!!!

So i shouted at abang, "Abang, laptop dah hilang!" He rushed over and the pak guard pun datang.. Cara pak guard tu memang buat saya kurang senang hati... Pak guard dengan selambar boleh cakap, "ohhh.. tadi ader owner kereta lain beritahu saya ader budak main laser kat area sini, saya sampai sudah nampak cermin kereta nie pecah..." Adehhhh!! What kind of management is that??? Dalam marah, mira masih ingat nak call maxis to block my sim card, call bank to temporary stop all transaction (sebab tak tahu aper lagi yang ader kat dalam bag mira tu)..

Aper-aper pun, kita dah nekad, boycott Carrefour!! Dah tak nak masuk sana shopping dahhh~ The guard can just say things like that, without taking any further action... At least inform the management so that they can announce the car number & we are aware of earlier and bukan kita dah sampai kat kereta baru nak cakap benda-benda cam tu...

Anyhow, benda-benda yang dah hilang, memang tak mungkin akan dapat dicari kembali... But then, I am glad that none of us were hurt and its just a burning hole on our pocket lahhh~ Dah lah dekat nak raya dahhh~

Thats all for the moment~ So member2, please forward me your mobile phone number next monday (as I can only get my replacement phone on sunday)... And sorry leh tak dapat nak wish sesiapa this raya sebab handphone tak der~~~~ >_<"'''
