School

Tis is unusual...coz for the past few days our lives have been quite hectic. Bangun seawal pagi and keluar dari pagi hingga ke tengahari .Berpeluh peluh!

Finally the kids will go to school after almost 5 months bersuka ria at home. It was quite messy coz at first we decided to go to school A but when we visited the school, it was in a such sorry state..tak sampai hati nak hantar my kids there. So we decided to find another school although we had registered with school A. Nasib baik tak bayar apa apa lagi. Finally we found a suitable school in the same area which all of us like, Al Iqbal International School. Nope it's not my father's school heh..heh.......(I wish!)

At least it looked like a proper school with neat classrooms and a huge playground for sports. (some school here converted a villa/hse into school- macam sekolah tadika je) We are just hoping they have good and commited teachers coz here there are many schools that have problematic teachers not problematic students!

School Uniform So the kids had to sit for their assessment test(which we did together gether coz no teachers were around!) and of course they passed with flying colors! Glad that Syafiq can start with Grade 3 and Nadia with Grade 5. That means they skipped one grade. I do hope they can catch up!! Cikgu Noor is supposed to make sure they do -hubby said seriously. *GULP*

Next few days we will be going around to buy books, school stuffs etc etc......Believe it or not their school books cost about Saudi riyal 1000.oo each!! Pengsan!

Their school starts on 1st Sept and my honeymoon days will be over then! No more getting up late (the schools starts at 7.30am) and I have to add "tuition teacher" to my resume beside kitchen and home administration. heh..heh...

My Teacher Rocks

I mizz u all la...

I so miss my frens....each one of them in Malaysia, the ones from my sekolah rendah convent days, the ones from Sek.Men convent days, the ones from MRSM Ps, the ones from my a level days, the ones from my NCUK days, the ones from my Univ days, the ones in Kuching, the ones in KL....

I especially miss the lepak time with them

I miss the sinfully delicious makan makan time with them

I miss sharing sensational gossips with them

I miss our escapade at the malls

I miss the intellectual conversation with them

I miss laughing about nothing with them

I miss mengutuk people with them

I miss merepek-ing with them

I miss pretending working out at the gym with them

I miss checking out guys with them (I was on a look out for my single frens ok!)

I miss having their support no matter how crazy I am

Frankly I juz miss them being them!

Sigh...I so miss u all la....
(Psst... pms time so mushy a bit la...)

Finally a good meal

It has been quite sometime since I last blog. The hot weather makes you feel so lethargic to do anything adventurous... (another reason for being plain lazy!)

Our tap water is just like boiling water during the afternoon, I think most of the time my hands are numb after I washed the dishes! We now have to “takung” air in the bathtub during the nite, to use it for our bath the next morning. Huh....I simply cannot imagine how the nomad live in the desert! Air cond pun rasa macam angin je!

Some update on oh so exciting things.....(not!) For something different, we had a proper dinner at 2 restaurants last 2 weeks. Normally when we go out, we prefer fast food coz its fast and u can never go wrong with the order . *self confess fast food junkie here*

It's an exciting event for us as normally when we go out it's alwiz to buy groceries at the Hypermarket or just to do window shopping at the mall so U can imagine how excited we were to do something different this time! heh..heh....

So first, Hubby brought us to a Turkish Restaurant, he wants me to try Turkish food tho he is doubtful that I will like it. He is rite, I dun really fancy them except for the bread yg teramat sedap. The rest of the dishes are just ok I guess. One thing I noticed tho, in their menus there are so many dishes with eggplant. Berangin beb!

Then the week after, we went to Applebee which is just 5 mins away from our apt. It is similar to Chillies. The restaurant was huge and deco was good, very American and food was oh so yummy! The price was above average but it's worth it! For once the waiter can speak proper English and in a good mood! We had steak, grill salmon and grilled chicken. It was a damn good meal coz dah lama tak makan proper western meal and to my delight they served the dishes with mashed potato. Sini susah nak jumpa shop yg jual mashed potato, so far none. Even KFC does not have mashed potato and the chicken does not taste like the KFC back in Msia. It’s more like ayam goreng pasar malam! Also no yummy KFC smells. I wonder why…...

Kids with an astronout in Applebee...cool huh!
