A Homemaker’s Diary

Esok Jumaat, akhirnya…eventhough masa tu kdg2 mcm tak bergerak je bila kat ofis, esp. time2 before lunch tu, towards the end of working hours tu pon mcm tu jugak..tgk jam kul 3:50, buat keje, tgk jam lagi…aittt..baru 7 minit time passed by..apa ni? jam tak jalan ke..hehehhe..

tapi bila time dekat nak balik n tetiba ada la plak keje kena siapkan..mula la rasa mcm masa tu berlari2 kena kejar…sama jugak bila start of the week, hari Isnin tu rasa mcm berjam2 nak over, tapi bila dah Rabu, Khamis tu laju la skit…tapi bila weekend, aitt..kejap je dah ptg, then next day dah Ahad, n Monday dah kena masuk keje balik…aarrgghhh…kalau tak kerana pegi keje tu boleh dpt duit $$$ ujung bulan, mmg tak nak la susah2 kan diri bekerja ni…

MQ dah pegi the admission interview for MBA, tgh menunggu la resultnya ni..dpt ke tak dpt ke…kalau dpt n kena buat full time, nak berenti keje ke aa? kdg tu rasa sayang jugak nak tinggalkan career world yg tak de la WORLD mana…hahaha…sapa2 yg pro Mawi, sori la, I anti mawi as a person tapi lagu Saleha dia boleh la layan lagi sebab M Nasir yg composed kan..hahahha…

Well dah melalut dah ni, sejak masuk bulan ramadhan ni, otak pon lemah je, kat ofis tu bertenaga lagi, tapi bila dah balik rumah, bukak puasa je letihnya la hai..nak basuh pinggan pon tak terdaya…tapi tak pe, MQ tido mlm awal dr selalu, n pagi since tak yah nak breakfast, sempat la kemas meja makan, buang sampah n basuh pinggan dlm sinki before pegi keje…sekarang pon musim hujan…so lega la sikit tak yah terkocoh2 nak siram pokok after work…emmm..nak rehat dulu la…mlm Khamis pon bukan ada citer best kat Astro..bila ek nak pegi terawih..niat di hati tu mmg nak buat amalan lebih ramadhan ni, tapi kdg tu bila dah balik keje, dah tak terdaya rasanya…niat dah ada, kena la berazam dan berusaha pulak…kan.. 🙂 Insyaallah

I hate to wake up to work on Monday. But I did and though not much was done at work on Moday, I felt teribbly tired. I tried to stay awake to watch Everybody Loves Raymond on Astro but half way through I just could not open my eyes. Aarghh..the agony of work or more to having to go to work…So I slept around 9:30pm and woke up around 8am on Tuesday morning, feeling much, much better.

It was Tuesday and I had the whole day attending induction. The information condensed briefing given by the 4 managers were enough to kill any functional brain. By the end of it I had headache, not so much due to the induction session but I think because I did not have rice for my lunch…hahhaha…oh yeah, one of the bosses treated us Dim Sum at Cyberview Garden’s Chinese restaurant…it was halal definitely…there’s a plus minus in this working world definitely…

Oh…3 of us had to move to back end office because EM people need the cubicles to do their testing. So at the end of the day, I had to pull out all the cables, moved my CPU, keyboard , mouse and flat panel to the new cubicle, even pushed the pedestal to the temporary place just to get comfortable for the next day work.

Once I reached home, I felt very,very tired and feel like sleeping after dinner. I watered the plants and then I realized my henna plant has leaves…only few days ago while I was trimming the grass I thought of pulling the branch out from the polybag because it seems not to be growing at all. The wonder of living, just when you thought there’s no hope, it blooms and shows us how incredible the miracle of life can be…

Oh the good part of the day, I called my old, good friend to ask for her favour and we exchanged stories and news…some people never change over the years, and it feels really comforting to have that kind of people in your life…and to wrap up my day, Hubby fried me the Pacific West Seafood combo..thanks honey…nyeh nyeh…

I’m off to sleep, another day at work tomorrow…wish it’s Friday rather than Wednesday..isk isk…(do I really hate to work that much?? ) hehehe…

It’s been quite a while since my last proper update. I have lots of story to share, mainly about work but after coming back from office I just feel so tired to even on my PC. After all I’m trying to reduce my electricity bills which have been accumulating like crazy due to my CPU 400W power supply. Since I’ve started to work again and won’t be in front of the PC all the time, I will be using less air cond in this SOHO room and hopefully that too will help to reduce my electricity usage. We’ll see how it works next month…. :))

Oh btw, I am utilising my weekend time to the optimum, gardening, doing laundry, cleaning up…all the usual house chores which I have been missing ever since I stop being full time homemaker…(did I really miss those chores…I doubt it…hahaha..)..but surely after almost a year of daily routine it might feel helpless not to be able to do it on leisure basis..I miss those time, clean up the kitchen, meanwhile dump the dirty clothes in the washing machine, then 1/2 an hour in front of the PC chatting, then continue scrubbing the toilet, rest for a while, chat again, 5pm cook dinner, after 11:30pm take the ultimate rest watching all kind of sitcoms on Astro until wee hour, sleep throughout the morning until noon…never bother about what blouse to match with what tudung…well, I’m on the working track again..still adjusting to balance both life..i’m getting the grasp of it…oh the best part of working again, my pay day is this Monday…maybe that’s the only thing I look forward after all….later ok..i’m sleepy..

Kan best kalau boleh jadi superwoman, leh buat keje dgn pantas, so tak byk masa terbuang..hahaha..balik keje tak penat, boleh masak dinner utk hubby, kemas rumah, basuh kain, sidai kain, lipat baju, iron baju, tudung etc, siapkan baju utk hubby pakai esok hari..sambil2 tgk Astro…lagi best kalau tak cukup tido pon tak penat, tak ngantuk…best kan???!

Tapi MQ cuma manusia biasa yg lemah, tak dpt nak penuhi segala keperluan dan kehendak diri mahu pun suami, yg harapkan home made dinner, supper mcm selalu… MQ cuba lakukan apa yang termampu…cuma kadang2 bukan yang terhebat dan terbaik…walaupun MQ dah cuba sedaya upaya… :((
