Woohoo!

aaand the long awaited school break has started! 3 weeks of sleeping in (i hope)...I'm such a lazy worker isn't it? But hey, I'm only human and this human certainly not doing any extra classes during this break. Kementerian sudah bagi cuti, cuti lah...saya yang menurut perintah...hoho, sungguh minta puji...hehe

Anyway, for the past 7 months ++ these are the books I've managed to read:

I'm not really a fan of Danielle Steel but I had nothing else to read during my confinement. (Oi, Philip if you are reading this I finally finish reading all the books hari tu)

So pitiful, isn't it? I'm not really a slow reader, but this little fella is taking most of my time nowadays(but mummy love you anyway, Bono):

Feeling excited to finally get to play with mummy's books. Uhm...well, not really mine, borrowed it from my friend.

Getting greedy!

Only two books are mine. Oh goodness me, I've only managed to buy two books for months now, and its the end of May already! Need to visit Times soon.

Oh, and last week was hubby punya nephew's wedding. It was the first time I attended a tea ceremony. Some action piccies:

Tea ceremony-the bride serving tea to her new uncle.

My turn. Uhhh, I feel so grown up ;)

Bono getting the red packet.

Guess what? It went straight to his mouth.

Bono and his (yummy) mummy...ehehe

My fave boys!

There's more pictures during dinner reception but they are still in the camera. And I'm feeling lazy already. It's 1 am. Need to sleep now. Happy Wesak Day and Kotobian Tadau Kaamatan!

My little affair

with shoes, that is.

A shoe fetish would surely faint to know that I bought only a pair of shoes last year. Yup, one pair. I'm not stingy you all. I found out that I was a pregger early February, so being a little shopaholic, I immediately when out to buy a pair of flats. One pair only because I kept hearing that the size of the feet will grow in proportion with the the tummy. I figured I'll get another pair, when this happen. Like a pair every month, or every trimester, you understand? My feet never did swell, only my ankles. Which means I was cheated out of buying shoes for 9 months. Well, I could always do some shopping after my confinement, right?

Wrong. I found out that being a new mom means you won't have the time to shop. And for the first few months most of my salary goes to baby related stuff. By the time I started working again, I had to content with using my pregger flats.

My hardworking flats. Very comfy but so worn out. So sad to let these go. I hope I can find another one that feels this good.

Another pair that I've been wearing. Haha. An ugly aunty-aunty shoes, very old school one. Actually I wore this every Wednesday, which is the day that I had to wear my Scout uniform.

Then sometime after my March salary, I bought this shoes. Pretty, no? I really like the bow in front and it looks so girly and dainty on my feet.

But it was a short-lived love. Less than two weeks, this pair is a tosser. Look, what happen to the soles. And the left heel broke! Guess this is meant for those who work in air-conditioned environment and are desk bound. Or have I gain weight? (Gasp!)

Then during the Mother's Day weekends, my hubby brought me shoes shopping. Yay! The only downside was that our current budget only allows for a pair. Lesson learned-must choose wisely. Our hunt started on friday night at the City Mall. No luck. But I finally got to dined at the Old Town. Hehe.

The search was continued on Saturday night.

My sporting hubby volunteer to wear Bono in my newly bought mei tai. First trial before going out (I called it In-house Training).

And it seems both boys are having fun!

We went to Palm Square, CP. I found this gorgeous, gorgeous pair at Clark's. Very comfy too. But what the heart wants, the mind can't conceive. Who would want to spend RM288 on one pair of work shoes? Those who have lots of money to spend, I guess. But I can't. I just can't. We went to Hush Puppies. Every pair was blah. My hubby gave me the go ahead with Clark's. But my calculative mind was thinking about the number of CDs that I can get with this amount of money! Dined at the Secret Recipe instead (at this rate, my fund would be dwindling!)

Next stop was Warisan Square. It's almost 9.30 pm. Most shops are closing down. I tried Charles & Keith. Luckily they closed at 10 pm. They said, third time is charmed. And when you see The One, you just know. It was perfect. And the price is right.

Here, meet my babe:

Hehe...I was beaming while strutting my stuff in these. Suddenly this week was a little bit better.

You might wonder why I keep buying black shoes? I just prefer black shoes for work. And my feet must be covered. Sandals for me, are for fun only. I don't know why I feel that way. I just do. But maybe, I'll buy a coloured one next.

Something to ponder...

I'm very interested with this program. Need to make sure there won't be any other activity on that day. To make up my mind before 14th of May.

I need to do some dusting...

both in my blog and in my home. I haven't updated my entry for so long...it's full of cyber cobwebs. In my mind there's so much I need to tell but in reality I don't have the time. And sometimes I much rather catch on my sleep ;) I wish I am one of those people that can function normally on 5 hours of sleep...

And then there's my home...if you ever want to come and visit let me know waaay in advance, like 2 hours maybe? Cause I would need to do a very very quick clean up. My home is a mess! Bono is like an indicator of the level of dustiness of my home. When his eczema starts to flare out, it's time to do some vacuuming, moping, and dusting. Oh, I'm such a lazy mum!

And then there's Bono. He should be starting on solid but I haven't bought bario rice yet. Where's to buy ah? Cannot find at CKS supermarket. I think ordinary rice also can. I must try to feed him his first bubur this week. I wanted avocado as his first solid (any reason to avoid cooking, hehe) but my hubby (being a typical old school guy) insist on rice. Haih! Try harder to find the bario rice then, my dear...

Window treatment

It's Laundry Day. Don't u love a sunny day? Look at my window:

I hang the CDs here cos it's most sunny here-and I don't have a balcony :)

So if you happen to be in the neighbourhood (BH apartments) and you see a window full of CDs, most probably it's my home.

On a lazy saturday...

It's school holiday...yabedabedooo!!! Haha...ingat student ja yang happy cuti ka? I've been surfing the net since 11 am. Found some interesting quizzes on blogthings.

#1

What's Sexy About Your Name

You Are Brainy Sexy You are sexy because you are smart. People know that there is more to you than meets the eye. You are alluring and mysterious. While many people are intrigued by you, the feeling isn't mutual. It takes a lot for someone to turn you on. First and foremost, you're only attracted to someone who's incredibly brilliant. But you just don't go for brains alone. Physical attractiveness is something you won't compromise on. You of all people can afford to be picky. You are demanding, but you are also in demand. And when someone gets you alone, you're truly amazing. Not many people get to see you in action.

What Your Handbag Says About You

You tend to be relaxed throughout the day. You are naturally at peace. You are a low maintenance person. You can adapt to a variety of situations. You are open and comfortable with who you are. You don't hide anything. You are an organized and together person. You are competent and successful. Your motto is: "Be prepared." You don't like to be surprised by anything. You are a very creative person. Your life tends to be a whirlwind, but you always seem to pull it together. You are practical and down to earth. You tend to be a rather reserved and quiet person.

#3

What Kind of Book Are You

You Are Humor You love to laugh at life, and if possible, get others to laugh along with you. You believe there's always a humorous side to everything. And your sense of humor ranges from upbeat to very dark. You are outrageous and very honest. You're often the only one willing to say what everyone else is thinking. You are witty and verbally talented. You like to play with words and say things in interesting ways.

Enough of them quizzes. Bono demands attention.
