A Homemaker’s Diary

This is how it looks like when you kept a biscuit (cookies?) for more than 5 years in a box, under the stairs of your house, and totally forget about it…heh!

I bet even a CSI can’t figure out what it is if not for the plastic packaging…we found this while packing our things…

Just hope the habits of keeping things and never spotcheck them from time to time will stop since we have our own home now..(personally, I doubt it! keh keh!)

We found this among all the junks when we packed our things to move to our new home. Well, I can’t really remember when I first had my mobile phone and this prepaid package. If it was during college years, then it will be about 10 years ago. The point is check out the price for the prepaid – it’s RM238 with RM50 reload in the SIM card..huhu!

Now you can get as low as RM10 for a prepaid package…sigh!

As per above picture, I have here 2 pairs of Women’s Levi’s 545 & 515 Boot Cut Jeans for sale. These two pairs of jeans have never been worn at all. All the tags are still intact.

Reason being I can’t fit into it. Hubby bought them in the US last year and I being the kampung-type who seldom wear authentic jeans gave him wrong size. He bought both in 8 Medium Misses size..huhu! (which translates to jeans with Waistband 34″(86.5 cm), Inseam 32″(81.5 cm), If the Jeans lay down flat: Waist 16.5″(41.5 cm))

I thought being pregnant would enable me to wear the jeans, but my pregnant waist never go past 28″ in size…

So for those with a 34″ waist size, please buy my jeans so that I could buy one locally in my size. I’m selling one pair for RM150, and if you are taking both pairs for RM250. Please leave your details in the comment if you are really interested to buy.

Well, the weekend started early for us since these days, Hubby’s Boss in US allows him to go back on Friday at 4pm..keh keh! So off we went to Ikano to take my Gucci “spek cikgu bedah”..well, it’s my turn this year to enjoy the optical RM1k benefit since last year we used the allocation for maternity and Hubby’s specs.

And guess what, KL Bird Park comes to Ikano to promote discounted tickets during these school holiday. I think you can save RM5 per person if you buy the ticket there. There are also birds in the concourse area and we took a family picture with those 3 very tame birds..(of course Hubby has to hold all 3 birds – I think 2 are bald eagles, and one cheerful red kenari(?)..eeiii I was so scared of all the birds..kalau dia patuk, or somehow tiba2 terbang mengamuk towards me..naya je!)

So if you could see the polaroid picture you will see how terrified, and buat2 muka tak takut face I had while holding our son. And the son was not even terrified of the birds..bagus la, if later ada burung sesat terbang masuk dalam rumah, at least I have a rescuer..heh!

On Saturday, we went to the old house to clear up one last time. Actually the plan was for me and the son to stay at home while Hubby went there alone to clean up, but since the tailor SMSed telling my baju for dinner dah siap, apa lagi kan..has to use the reason to clean the house sebab nak collect the baju kurung..heh!

Sunday, we went to hand over the rented house keys. The landlady was very nice, even her mom (or MIL) was very friendly telling Hubby that for Chinese they considered the rented house very “ong’ because the tenant live there for a long time (5 years!!) and lead a happy, healthy life to the extent of having child and manage to buy own house.

After settled everything (and got back some portion of our utility deposit..hehe!), we went to Low Yat because Hubby wanted to buy something but he said I shouldn’t tell what it is..(curious tak?…heh!) It was the first IT trip for the son..but unluckily we couldn’t find the gadget. So considered the mission was not completed…aarghh tension!

We are still looking around for the gadget. Hopefully Hubby will manage to get it soon so that the son and I will be able to enjoy some great entertainment in the master bedroom with the air cond on..heh! (seriously panas la sekarang even with full blast of ceiling fan downstairs).

Oh, in the meantime, I’m trying to curi masa to sew the beads on the new baju kurung for me to wear to Hubby’s company annual dinner..heh! The theme is occupation so here I come as a teacher..ceh! I was hoping to get something like Bob The Builder costume for our son, tapi macam tak de je..huhu! Hubby is still not sure what he wants to be to the dinner..

It’s that time of the year again, when people get wed and hold their wedding reception. As a matter of fact, an ex student of mine already invited me for her June reception a few months ago. Thus prompting me to dig this old picture of orange wedding we attended in March this year.

I am not sure what is the favorite color theme for 2009 wedding, have to go to several wedding to come to a strong conclusion, but my guess is it will be something in golden tone. Like last year (2008) the favorite color is turqoise or something blue-tone.

To all getting married this year, may you be blessed and strong enough to brave the journey of married life, it could be a sweet experience throughout but can’t expect it to be less bitter. Whatever obstacles that may come your way, hold on and endure it together, as that’s the real test of love you have for each other.
