Outing at Johor Premium Outlet

Went back to my hometown last weekend...Not included in our initial plan... it was an ad-hock decision...the car needed routine maintenance and Proton JB had better service than the one at my current town... so we drove off to my parents' last friday.... coincidentally, my aunt came and we had the chance to meet her and family.....

On Sunday, my aunt asked us to join their outing to JPO (Johor premium outlet).. the shopping heaven for the rich....(definitely, i don't fall into that category...but it is a good place for window-shopping too!!!)...
That was my second time in JPO....so please scroll down readers..............

oh. how i love this pic.......

the family....getting ready for window-shopping...

we bumped into a model (photo-shooting session)...so damn sexy.... for men out there...don't look too long at this pic... Nauzubillah..... :)

some of the designers' boutiques here.....

Soon after that, we drove our way to Nusajaya, wanting to see the Karnival Nusajaya by ourselves.... but we ended up having lunch at Mydin Nusajaya without even stop at the carnival.... cars were parked kilometres away from the site....it was a hot and scorching noon, so we opted not to go.... what a relief!!!

Then, we bid goodbye to my aunt and off to my parents'... later in the afternoon, my hubby drove us back again.....

Legoland???? too expensive although we were so there already..... not in the budget..huhu...
till then...

SKS 1: Retirement party

"Retirement - goodbye tension, hello pension!"

Yesterday was my headmistress's retirement party.... quite a big event it was... i was put to be in charge of the feast together with my colleague, kak Nisa'. Only two people for such a big event to organise a feast??? Really a no no .....With the help of the canteen workers, we managed to overcome the burden of preparing the feast for the VIPs..

It was the first in my school to hold such event, so it kinda new experience for everyone... like i said before, there will always a first time...
 

Puan Jamilah's was brought to school by the beautifully-decorated motorcycle ( see me posing on the motorcycle??!!).. her arrival was greeted with kompang and drum beat....upon her arrival, our GPK, Cik Noraine presented her with bouquet of flowers.... she then was escorted to the hall where the ceremony will be held.. 

Note:she was in tears all along the ceremony.... some of us were also in the same emotion....

the people behind the feast..(me, kak Nisa' and kak ina)..the VIP room

Many programs were held...as usual there were rounds and rounds of speech, performances by the teachers and pupils, multimedia presentation and of course, Puan Jamilah will be presented by gifts by people who adore her much (teachers, the workers etc).. Puan Jamilah got all the special treatment on that day...she even sat on the dais to witness the historical day of her life... that explained the tears rolling down her cheeks....

The ceremony came to a stop at noon... it was the time to bid goodbye... a send-off ceremony took place...

Then, she was sent home.... the school had lost a dear headmistress i have ever known.... 

Puan Jamilah,

We'll miss you. You were one of a kind, and not easily replaced. Congratulations on your retirement.

How will the new headmaster be??? I wonder...........

Bowl or bowl over??!! :)

Feeling bored at home, after attending an open house, suddenly got a call from my younger brother inviting us for bowling...Yeah, why not??!! Haven't play bowling since i got married...That long??!!! Yes.... Wondering if i would bowl over on the slippery lane...

Off we go to Kuantan, together with my parents..After a nice dinner at H. Lidah Restaurant ( a nice and cheap restaurant-first time there,will come back for more, InsyaAllah...),we went straight for the bowling centre....i forgot the name of that mall..huhu....

Not so many people were there, so we easily got ourselves a lane....had to pay for the socks and the shoes as well....forgot to bring own socks...

The supporters!!!

Like a pro...... uwekkk!!!

Don't do thisat home!!!!huhu.....Although, the score was just so-so, but the style is all that matters...:)

While on the game, the system went wrong and there goes all our scores...so had to start all over again with only one name on the scoreboard..... we were so pissed off and wanted to a free game but time was running so late, we just finished off and went back....

Shud have another bowling session again soon.....Do you bowl??

Going West: Selangor and KL trip

Lately, i find it is so hard to spend time for blogging.... be it family issues, career demand or many many other things...... So, my entry always had to be backdated...so sorry guys...but i do hope you still enjoy my writing....

me and hubby share the same hobby...travelling..... we love travel so much and in a month we took sometimes to go unwind from work... so the place will be as per budget..hehhe.... last two weeks, we went west to bangi n KL, just to attend hubby's colleague who is getting married In MPOB hall, Bangi... tagged along were my SIL and also FIL..... We stayed a night at uncle's from hubby's side (Pak Tam) at Taman Melawati....
At noon, we drove our way to MPOB Hall, Bangi to attend the wedding......

 

My hubby thought, it will be a waste if we came here and did not go to KL... i smiled widely...yes...  we went north to KL...drove our way to Sogo...bought some clothes for my kids, my hubby, myself..of course... and not to forget...my FIL and SIL....

Late, in the afternoon, we decided to start our journey back, it was late already, and we had to work the next day.... we used the LEKAS highway and suddenly, my hubby decided to stop at Kajang....If we talk about Kajang, sate definitely will come to your mind...right!! we had some sates at the famous Hj Sahmuri...

The place is huge enough to accomodate many many people and the Satay can only be great with a perfect peanut sauce — and lots of it too. Haji Samuri does not skimp on the sauce and gives you all that you want.We ordered other foods to accompany the satay... But the main focus is truly on the satay, so other menus were just okay.....

Then,we went home straight after that...arrived around 2 a.m.... and me and hubby had to work the next day...

tired but all worthwhile...hehe...

Till then.......

 

Melaka Trip: Day 2

Continued from the previous entry, day 2 for my Malacca trip... We woke up feeling exhausted, tired from the hectic schedule from our first day..... after subuh, we dozed off till 8 a.m. and woke up to have our breakfast.... the breakfast served was just okay...nothing much to brag about...(actually i was expecting much more from such resort..hehe)..we ate and took time to camwhoring...hehhe...

Then, pool activity again...this time around, my hubby did not join, only me, my two water-loving kids and SIL...so no photo-snapping frenzy...hhhee....
Around 12 p.m we were so ready to check-out and took some time to camwhoring (again!!!) at the lobby..

Then, we went straight to Mydin Mall (the one place that we wont't miss on our every visit to Malacca)....we went shopping and had lunch there at Rasa Village....we really wanted to have a go at Banda Hilir but it was too packed with tourists (the 3 days public holidays can explained the situation)...there was nowhere to park the car so we just passed through and had our tea at Perhentian Kuih Kampung.... a nice eatery spot if u are a traditional kuih lover....

wondering where to go next, we decided to try on the famous Melaka River Cruise...the ride was okay but people said it wud be much nicer at night... the lights will illuminated the surroundings..maybe on my next visit we will try out the ride at night.... along the ride we witnessed at least five couples took their wedding pics on the river bank... i guess it was one of the beautiful spots to capture the happiest day in their life...hehhe..

Hunger for more excitement, we went to the Pirate Park..having seen them during the river cruise, we drove our way to that park... my hubby tried on the madbull ride...he lasted for only a minute++ on that mechanical bull..hahha..... Then we tried the ferriswheel....i was so confident that i won't be scared of the height...but it was a terryfying ride...i was afraid of the height....nevertheless, i remained calm for 5 cycles of the ride..huhu.. i won't try it anymore....once is enough...hahha..

Feeling all tired and sleepy, we headed back....it was a nice and unforgettable journey... Reen, if u are reading this, make sure on our next visit, spare some of ur time for us to visit u..k....miss u...

Till then...

Melaka Trip: Day 1

Malacca is one of those places that i would never feel bored to visit...dunno why...but i really loves strolling around malacca... got all the excitement that kids love... zoo, playpark and so on....  me, still in the hari raya mood went to malacca on the independence day just to collect angpau for my two kids and also went for cuti-cuti Malaysia.....heheh...killing two birds using one stone...:) me, my hubby and surely my two kids and my SIL stayed there for two days...here is the story for the first day...read on buddies......

 
Since we arrived before the check-in time, we went for our lunch first..... then we went straight for the zoo just to kill time before checking to the hotel...... it was qalesya's favourite spot.... she went frenzy when she saw all those animals she usually see only on tv...."umi, chicha nk tengok elephant...".... i smiled back knowing my little girl know what is elephant...huhu....

the animals that really caught qalesya's attention...

We just strolled along the pathway and opted not to go on the tram.... just to have much more contact with the nature and the animals.... it took almost an hour and half just to complete the tour (we did not go to all sections- too many of them)... we all went all sweaty and hungry plus thirsty by the time we reach to the end of the tour.... and we even bought a set of T-shirts with our picture on it as a memento of our trip in Malacca this year...

The hotel room, the balcony view and the T-shirts i mentioned before....

Soon after the zoo tour, we went straight for Puteri Resort which i already made a reservation a day before.... it was the deluxe room( pool view). The room is fully furnished with a double bed facing the swimming pool and the nearby lake sceneries. Ok..good enough to accomodate me and my family for a night...

By the time my doter saw the pool, she frantically asked to go swim in that pool...so we put our luggage, get changed and it's splashing time till late in the afternoon......

At night, we went for an open house at my hubby's friend at Bukit Katil....
Then, ZZZzzzzzzzzzz-ing time.......
MelakaTrip: Day 2 coming right up!!!Stay tune!!

Loss of a relative

Received a shocking news from my husband...a relative of mine (he was the brother in law of one of my aunt from my father's side)  passed away in a car accident....Known him from my childhood days, although we were not really closed, he was always known for his kindness......

2 pengurus Felda maut kenderaan tembung jip Jabatan Perhutanan

Oleh: WAN JUHAIDA WAN HASSAN
Tarikh: September 7, 2012

RAUB – Dua pengurus Felda Gugusan Tersang meninggal dunia selepas kenderaan pacuan empat roda dinaiki mereka bertembung dengan jip Jabatan Perhutanan di Kilometer 327 Jalan Raub-Tersang kira-kira jam 1.30 tengah hari semalam.

Kedua-dua mangsa dipercayai dalam perjalanan pulang setelah menghadiri majlis sempena meraikan bakal haji di samping sambutan Aidilfitri dekat Felda Lurah Bilut.

Pengurus Felda Tersang Dua, Abdul Rahim Mat Jabri, 50-an, mengalami kecederaan parah, tetapi sempat dibawa ke Klinik Kesihatan Tersang terlebih dahulu sebelum meninggal dunia di sana, sementara Pengurus Felda Tersang Tiga, Abd Jalil Jamaluddin, 40-an, meninggal dunia di tempat kejadian.

Ketua Polis Daerah, Superintendan Wan Mohd Samsudin Wan Osman  berkata, kenderaan dipandu Abdul Jalil bersama Abdul Rahim bertembung dengan jip dinaiki empat kakitangan Jabatan Perhutanan yang dalam perjalanan dari arah Tersang.

Menurutnya, pertembungan  dipercayai berlaku apabila kenderaan mangsa terbabas ke laluan bertentangan selepas melalui satu selekoh.

Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (Adun) Dong, Datuk Shahiruddin Ab Moin yang tiba di pekarangan Rumah Mayat Hospital Raub ketika ditemui berkata, baru sahaja beberapa hari lalu beliau menemui mangsa dalam majlis keraian.
Katanya, berita kematian diterimanya itu amat mengejutkan dan tidak diduga, tetapi beliau pasrah dengan ketentuan ALLAH.

“Saya dimaklumkan Abd Rahim akan menunaikan ibadah haji pada pertengahan bulan ini, tetapi hasratnya tidak kesampaian.

“Kedua-dua mangsa juga difahamkan baru pulang daripada majlis sempena meraikan bakal haji di samping Sambutan Aidilfitri dekat Felda Lurah Bilut,” katanya.

Beliau berharap keluarga kedua-dua mangsa tabah menghadapi dugaan itu dan dapat menempuhi hari mendatang dengan sabar.

Jenazah kedua-dua mangsa akan dikebumikan di Johor sebaik sahaja selesai bedah siasat.
Sementara itu, Penyelia Felda Tersang Dua, Mohd Izmi Deraman berkata, Abd Rahim seorang ketua berdedikasi dan komited terhadap sebarang tanggungjawab dipikulnya.

Menurutnya, setiap program yang memerlukan kehadiran dan perhatiannya pasti akan cuba dilaksanakan sebaik mungkin.

“Kami benar-benar kehilangan. Setiap ilmu serta pengalaman ketika bersamanya akan menjadi bekalan meneruskan amanah.

“Diharapkan roh kedua-dua ketua berdedikasi ini mendapat rahmat ALLAH dan bersama golongan mukmin,” katanya.
Mohd Izmi berkata, lazimnya Abd Rahim akan memintanya memeriksa jadual aktiviti setiap hari dan memaklumkan semula untuk tindakan lanjut.

Katanya, kali terakhir dia berhubung dengan ketuanya itu untuk memaklumkan program yang perlu dihadiri dekat Lurah Bilut.

“Saya ada memeriksa jadual dan mengesahkan terdapat program pada hari ini (semalam), lalu menghantar khidmat pesanan ringkas (SMS) untuk memaklumkannya.

“Selalunya dia akan balas SMS saya walaupun pada sebelah malam, tetapi tidak pada malam tadi (kelmarin). Dia hanya senyap sehingga saya mendapat tahu mengenai kemalangan menimpanya,” katanya.

Sinar Harian yang tiba di pekarangan rumah mayat Hospital Raub mendapati ramai tetamu terdiri daripada pemimpin setempat menziarahi jenazah termasuk Pegawai Daerah, Datuk Ismail Mohd Ali; Pengarah Hospital Raub, Dr Kamariah Ghazali dan Adun Batu Talam.

Turut hadir memberi penghormatan terakhir, Pengurus Besar Felda Wilayah Mempaga, Jahya Janal; Timbalan Pengurus Besar Felda Wilayah Mempaga, Amir Hamdan Yusof dan Ketua Pergerakan Wanita Umno Bahagian, Jariah Hashim.
