How can u not love them?

Kids can sure surprise u when u least expect it.
Once, my 7 months plus nephew suddenly muttered 'Takdeee' when he was angry at me for teasing him with the word.
And just like the other day, while I was browsing on the internet, little Andika was on his walker and maybe feeling a bit ignored, he decided to do something to get my attention.
Got my attention, he did!
He made the funniest, cutest face ever!
And he did it to me first!
*beaming with pride*

Everytime we want him to make that face, we unanimously say 'muka jaik' (ugly face) but Mum insisted we called it differently (kata-kata umpama doa) so we changed it to 'show gigi lokkk' (show ur teeth) and he will show the few teeth he has.

Now it's the wallpaper on my BB coz I know whenever I feel down, just looking at his face would definitely make my day.

ps: I so wanna be a mother! :p

blog while u're on the go

I've been asked on how I update my blog from my BB for many times & do forgive me cause i keep forgetting to write an entry about it.
Actually I figured it out by chance (I was exactly like u who asked a fellow blogger about it but was ignored / maybe she forgot too) so I decided to explore the blogspot page myself & like they say, the rest was history.
And like they say too, sharing is caring so with just how u can share ur immediate thoughts when u're not anywhere near a laptop / broadband connection but with ur trusted baby, I mean BB.

Step 1: Sign in to ur blogspot account & go to the Settings tab

Step 2: Go to Email & Mobile

Step 3: Go to Posting Options & at the Email Posting Address, just fill any word in the blank. For eg, my email posting address would be wnieza266.hotbabe@blogger.com. (No, this isn't real)

Step 4: Select 'publish emails immediately' & save settings.

Step 5: So everytime u wanna blog from ur BB, just send an email to the email posting address u've just created & voila! ur blog is updated!

Try it & tell me if it works!
Glad to help. :)

walk with me?

When I saw the lime green limited tshirt for the participants in the World Walking Day, I knew I just have to have it.
So yesterday I dragged Bobet (ok, she volunteered) to the venue & instead of doing the walk, our main aim was to get the tshirt.
When we got there, the queue was already a few metres long & it was not yet 7 am!
After almost an hour waiting, it was finally our turn & we managed to get the tshirts.
Hooray!
We skipped the launch & the aerobics session to have the famous Sepinang Sari Mi Sapi & then headed back to the venue.
But it was so hard to find a parking spot so we made a detour to Pasar Minggu.
We walked aimlessly there & bumped into our former secondary school principal.
We also received compliments on our tshirts from a few strangers.
(Told u the tshirt's real nice)
Then back to the venue to get ourselves some free food samples.
Team Malaysia on The Amazing Race Asia, Ivan & Hilda with their cute daughter were also there.
Others were asking to take pictures together with them.
Us on the other hands just settled with smiles on our faces.
Eventhough we were not involved in all the programmes lined up for the event, it sure feels great to see people coming together for a healthy cause.
I am so going again next year!
(I wonder how the tshirt will look like then)

We are all smart until we fall in love

When u like someone so much, u'd do things u never imagined u would.
Go the extra mile just to show how much u're into that someone.
At the same time trying to keep ur cool so it won't appear that obvious (but most of the time he/she already knew).
And that's what I witnessed last Sunday at the Padawan Raft Safari.
A great friend of mine likes this guy soooo much (I wouldn't dare use the word love coz she would definitely deny it) that she ventured to the depth of the jungle just to see him compete.
Ok, maybe I exaggerated a bit.
But she did go there, with me tagging along, to show her support for him & his team (obviously the latter was just an excuse).
We arrived at Kpg Temurang after an hour journey, about 8.15am.
(Yup, that's how excited we were)
Once we got there, we were told that rafting teams had took off at 8 so thinking that we just missed him, we decided to wait at a neighbouring village, Kpg Semedang knowing that he'd pass there a few hours later.

So we waited.

And waited.

And waited.

And waited.

Until 5 hours & 15 minutes later..

Me: I think someone's approaching but it looks like a kayak. He should be on a raft right?

Her: Yup, he told me he'd be competing in the rafting category not kayakking.*talking while on the phone with someone, obviously distracted*

Me: But he kinda looks like him, don't u think? U know I have horrible eyesight.*squinting*
Me: It's him! It's him! Wave quick!

Her: Encik ...... ! (name not to be disclosed for privacy purposes) *while still on the phone & waving like crazy*

Eventhough I couldn't clearly see his face, I knew for sure he was stunned.
He looked loooong & hard at us & finally waved back.
But that didn't stop him from keep looking til we're out of each others' sight.
Maybe he didn't expect to see us there, waiting under the sun & rain, bitten by insects, teased by a group of drunk supporters just to get a glimpse of him.

Her: OMG! What did I just do? I'm embarassed! *her face so red, I feel like rolling on the floor laughing*

Me: U just did what comes natural to u. *still grinning like a cheshire cat on drugs*

So the two of us made our way to the finishing point at Kpg Git & thank God we didn't bump onto him.
Turned out, he woked up late that morning so he couldn't participate in the rafting category & he was on the kayak just for fun (which included almost 2 hours of ciggy break in between).
No wonder it took us like forever to see him pass by.
Pffft.

But, that didn't deter her feelings for him at all.
She still feels the same way (maybe even more) for him.
The things u do for love.
*sighing with dreamy eyes*

U're invited!

This came in the mail yesterday evening.
It's an invitation card for my cousin's wedding reception in Johor.
Fyi, she's a year younger than me & she's getting married 2 weeks from now.
Another fyi, I'm the only one without a ring on my finger & a child on my hip of all my siblings.
Talk about pressure with a capital P.
Thank God I couldn't make it to the wedding because of work obligations.
I know for sure I'll be bombarded with the same old, same old question.
-____-"

Anyways, to Muliana & Sahir, congratulations!
Sorry I couldn't make it to the wedding but I'll be sending my love & wishes for the both of u.
And u can claim the wedding gift from my mum & dad. ;)
Hope everything will go smoothly as planned.
AMIN.

Smile!

This must be my favourite pic of my nephew, Andika.
He had just gone to sleep & maybe was dreaming of something funny that he smiled in the middle of it.
Great timing for a picture, don't u think so?
:)

My friends said that he kinda looks like me a bit.
Maybe when I have kids of my own, one of them might resemble him but with brown hair & clear, blue eyes.
I wish!
:p

I need my fix

U know what I hate?
Being in a *cough* diet *cough* but craves for sweet, sugary treats all the time!
And at the moment, it's Milo McFlurry!
How can a combination of two simple things taste so freakingly good?!
*drool*

It's one of those days

Woke up earlier than usual for work today.
Grabbed a quick breakfast, unlocked the front door grille & started the car's engine.
Because sis doesn't have spare keys for the house, I nonchalantly threw the keys back inside the house after locking back the front grille.
And later realised I haven't unlocked the gate!
*slaps forehead*

Such things happen to me all the time that sometimes I feel like I'm sufferring from a disorder or something.

it wasn't our time yet

after reading this article in the news this morning, i immediately thought that it could have been us (us here would refer to Juzz, Bobet, Fieza & myself).
a few years back, the four of us decided to go for a picnic at Kubah National Park.
it rained since morning but we agreed to proceed with the plan.
but once we arrived there, it was raining heavily that there's no way that we could do anything in that weather.
so we headed back & i was behind the wheels.
from a distance, i noticed a yellow school bus coming towards us from the opposite direction.
i don't exactly have 20/20 vision & i totally suck in driving in bad weather.
to make things worse, we were both fast approaching a sharp curve.
i had an uneasy feeling in my gut that something bad is going to happen at the sight of it but i kept it to myself.
the closer we get to each other, it felt like the car is slowly pushed by an invisible force towards the bus (which later i figured might be the overflowing water on the road) & the bus didn't look like it's slowing down at all.
i kept my cool for as long as i could but not long enough when i realised that the bus was just inches away from us (and i quote Bobet who sat behind me, "when i turned to look at my right, all i can see is yellow." that's how close we were) & Fieza was screaming so loud i could swear i heard ringing in my ears for days.
i swerved the car to my left as far away as i could at the same time trying to avoid a ditch filled with running water while in my mind hoping & praying that we would be spared.
we were with all four of us unscathed.
trembling & traumatized from the unwanted experience but thankful that we were still alive.

footnote: i was so shaken after the incident, i never told my parents about it.
i don't think they would let me drive again if i did. :(

Progress (or lack of it) so far

Last night after our gym sessions, drenched in sweat, Fieza & myself had a wellness analysis.
It was a major wake up call!

U will be shocked with the numbers cause I totally was!

Weight - 62.6 kg
Lost 1.4kg so far. It's not much but better than nothing right?

Body fat - 37.8%
For a woman my age, percentage of body fat should not exceed 25.4% but I managed to overshoot it by 12.4%. Pfft.

Body water - 45.5%
The ideal would be 50% - 60% so I need to stock up on my water intake.

Bone mass - 2.2 kg
This refers to my bone density. The ideal would be 2.4kg. Just a little bit more. Need to drink more milk & be a poster girl for the Got Milk? ad. In my dreams. :D

Muscle mass - 36.7%
Physique rating - 3
This is the ratio of body fat & muscle mass in our body. The woman who did the analysis told me my physique isn't proportionate with the percentage of muscle mass I have. Currently I am solidly built (large frame, obese). She said I need to reduce body fat & increase muscle mass to achieve a healthier rating of 5.

Basal metabolic rate - 1221 cal
This refers to the minimum calorific requirement needed to sustain life in a resting individual. Simple English, u must not eat more than ur BMR if u want to lose weight.

Visceral fat rating - 7
This refers to the fat that surrounds the internal organs. For a woman my age, mine shud be in the range of 1 - 4. 7 is still in the healthy range but barely.

Metabolic age - 48 years
My chronological age is 27 years but internally, my organs are functioning like a 48 year old's! That means my organs are 21 years old older than what they're supposed to be. Waaaa!

Get urself checked. U can actually count them urselves or do what I did, just let the machine did all the counting & panicked when u see the numbers. :D
