Story plus plus (cerita campur-campur)

Hmmm...hello...!!!!! it’s Friday .... yeah2 i know that i have neglected this blog for a very long time.... it’s not that i don’t have things to write ...but i was kind of busy. If i were not busy then i was not in the mood to write (haha..blame the pregnancy and the baby now ,eh?) mood swing laa katekan.... Now, is the time for you to be prepared for a very long entry..

About the pregnancy, now i have completed 34 weeks already and i’m in my 35th week. The last 3 months were way too fast and my belly is like a huge balloon already.. i have trouble sleeping at night also.. at this point of pregnancy, i should be getting a lot of rest but when the baby jumps around, i could not sleep at all, plus the times that i have to wake up in the middle of the night to pay a visit or two to the bathroom.. however, i have to admit it that i love the feeling when the baby is moving inside.... it’s like when i feel like i’m alone, the baby reminds me that i’m not alone at all.... i wonder how my life is going to be like in about 1 month when this little precious shows up... A friend of mine whom wife’s due date is about the same with mine has felt the contraction already, and the contraction is 10 minutes apart. The wife has started to dilate already...and i’m started to feel scared....

Most of you might be guessing that i’m scared of the labour.... that too, but most of it is because i am worried that i could not settle my work before i go into labour... with the students’ assignments, presentation...before i handover my classes to the other colleagues... at least for the EUE codes that i teach, there are only 1 assignment and 2 presentations.... but for the TUE code (that has just been revamped...my oh my...) the are 3 presentations, scrap book, and 3 listening tests... sempat ke mcm nih????? Tak sanggup nk pikir... plus, my name is selected to be observed for internal observation by my KJ.... ini adlh 1 kegilaan!!! But if i am currently trying to take it positively...i work best under pressure (repeat 100 times)... what i do now to make sure that the students submit the assignments on time is to ask them to do the assignment in class.. so there will be no excuse for them to finish it late....if my EDD is happened to be accurate, i have exactly 1 month..for the month of February, i’ll have them submit the assignment during the first week. And have the presentation by the second week.. (that is applicable for my sem 1 EUE students only) not for sem 2...they are going to start the assignment during the first week, by the second week the assignment should have been submitted to me and by the third week, they should be ready with the presentation....so, i have 1 week spare to evaluate the assignment... That would happen IF my EDD is accurate... if it happen to be later than that, i’d be grateful as i am given extra time to finish it all, but i just cannot imagine if THE DAY comes earlier than expected???? GOSH!!!!!!! (this time it’s not the baby’s fault!! It’s just about the timing.. why did mummy and daddy get married in June??????why????...Damn!!!!hahaha...)

Early of this month, i went to Sabah for a vacation with my in-laws.. it was a great one ...and i enjoyed it very much... can u imagine this pregnant lady climb up the hill just to walk on the canopy walk???? Hahaha..tak sedar diri btol kan??? Terrer tau...tp mase tu ade jgk terpikir, what if i terberanak plakkkk time tgh atas jambatan gantung tuh??? But..the hell with it...dah la the emergency bag was left in Bangi at that time...hahaha... takpe, mase tu baru 7 bln, insyallah tak kotttt... the places we visited in Sabah were KK (of course laa..) , Kinabalu Park, Poring Hot Spring, Kundasang and Manukan Island ..and 1 more place Monsopiad Cultural Village....

On the day of arrival, we went around Kota Kinabalu ( Salted-fish market, Filipino market and the market next to it... just to warm up and survey for the souvenirs that match our budget (hehehe...al maklum laa, sengkek..tp nk g jalan jugak). The next day, we went on a trip to Kinabalu Park, Kundasang, and Poring Hot Spring.... it was a very long and tiring journey as we have to passed by jalan yang amat laaaa berbukit... (now that bukit putus and bukit tangga are no longer like that..i’m soo not used to it anymore) for more than 4 hours pergi balik...and on our way back, the fuel was almost empty and my husband (as the official driver) has to play a lot with the braking system (instead of low gear) to ensure less fuel consumption though as an engineer ( car especially), he knew that it was a very dangerous thing to do (using a lot of brake- that is the reason why near Jelapang Toll in Ipoh tu, there were lots of accident due to Braking system malfunctioned... people tend to use brake instead of using low gears )...tu laa..kat Ranau tu tak mo isi minyakk... Luckily we made it to Tamparuli safely and refuel the car....

On the third day, in the morning my husband and i went to the fish market. I went there just to see the fresh seafood that ppl always talk about...and, actually i was in a mission to look for lobster, we saw it at the main entrance, tp org punye laa...after that, we went to Manukan Island...jalan2 kat pulau... the beach was extremely beautiful.... and the water was clear too, we could see the fish swimming... after we got back to KK, we went to the markets that sell salted fish n souvenirs and do some shopping...

On the last day, my husband and i woke up as early as 530 am and we have a mission!!! We want to go to the fish market to buy lobster!!!!! Hahaha....nak jugak! So, we went to the market together with my parents in law.. so, jalan punye jalan, punye jalan... then i stopped at a fish monger ..terkesima melihat 1 spesis udang yg amat besar!! As big as my nephew punye lengan... (note: lengan Amir hakim adlh amat besar dan lazat utk di gigit!!) I asked for the price, and he replied it’s RM 20 per kg...wahh!!! so, on the table there were 6 of it...3 big ones and 3 not so big but as big as the biggest udang galah we could find in semenanjung.... so, can u imagine how big are the big ones??? At first, i asked the fish monger to weigh oneof the big prawns...( we thought it was lobster but after buying it we still didn’t know whether it is really a lobster or not...) but, after found out that it only weigh 300g, we asked the seller to timbang sumer2 tuh laaa...wahahahahha..puas ati aku!! Altogether RM 38. Balik rumah dgn muke amat puas ati, tp sampai umh tanye kak ilah dulu whether binatang tersebut adlh lobster atau tak... This is because my brother n my sister in law were once in somehow almost similar situation (almaklum laa kami nih sume tak pnah jumpe @ mkn en mohd lobster nih) haha... so, kak ilah pon tgk laa binatang dlm plastic tu...lobster laa tuh! YES!!!!! Lps tu kami terus masukkan binatang tu dlm freezer (utk di bawak balik)..
