And Finally, Yours Truly...

Update!

It has been years since my last post. It is partially due to I have totally forgotten my password to my gmail a/c, then I have to resolve by using dh a/c instead! Smart eh?


Anyway, time goes by , faster than Air Asia. Without I even realize, Phoebe is now 9 YO & Isaac is coming to 6YO already. Phewww… I guess it is time for me to catch my breath, slow down and start writing my blog again.


Just last month we celebrated Phoebe’s 9YO birthday. We decided to give her a “big” celebration at Mcdonald Api-Api instead of the usual “cake cutting ceremony” at home with her brother. Let me tell you one thing, Children party is not easy. It was a headache and really tiring. Throughout the party all I can hear is only screaming and laughing. But I’m glad everyone enjoying themselves including Isaac. Phoebe have put a special thought to her brother and invited one of her friend’s brother, so Isaac doesn’t feel left out cos phoebe’s guest is all girls!


It is almost end of May now, so the kids are soooo looking forward for the holidays. My in laws will be in town, so does my siblings from Labuan. I will post some photos, soon…till then, bye!


Yours Faithfully,

Fiona

Two!

Yup! That's how old Wyatt is today.

He woke up this morning a bit groggy due to his runny nose. Still, cheerful moody little one he is. I asked my wife what to get for his birthday, as we're not buying any cakes today or else he would blow the candles and leave his slime everywhere... euuwwwww

Me
u ok? what to get piggy for his bday?

Wife
ok lah
hmm ..dunno
his first toy?
hehe

Me

what?
men?


Wife
ya mennn


"Men" was Wyatt's way of saying Transformers... well I guess he's gonna get "Men" this birthday.

If not Transformers "Men", then it'll be either, Chau-men, Pan-men, Ultra-man, Spider-man, Kluang-Man.....

Missed but not forgotten

Visit to Tambunan wouldn't be the same again.  We have just seen Phoebe & Isaac's great-grandmother being buried this afternoon.  

It was a perfect weather today; it was sunny, with a bit of breeze in the afternoon.  The neighbours were very helpful in setting things into motion.  MIL looked tired, however with everyone around, she had less to worry on the arrangement.  There were so many relatives & friends visiting, that yours-truly tend to stay in the shadow, observing the crowds exchanging greetings, children running around (especially phoebe), food being prepared and cooked; Uncle Eric writing up his Eulogy; cousins, aunties / uncles, nephew / nieces, all came to pay their last respect.

The last time we saw her was last Christmas.  She was still actively moving around, less chatty but full of smile.  The kids loved being around her, amused by her very elderly action, they would immitate her.  I still can remember when Isaac just started to walk, he would posed just like her, walking with his hands at his back while walking a bit slanting forwards.

I have less memory of her for I only knew her for a short time, and most of our encountered was a brief exchange of a smile.  

One thing I do know for sure, she did make everyone happy with her presence.  She is now with one of her children, looking from above, observing those who would remain here, running their daily errands.

On the way back to KK, I still can recall the faces of family & friends praying for her soul.  Yes, she will be missed, but not forgotten.

If all thing goes well this coming few days, we might be in Tambunan this coming Saturday for the 7th day prayers.

Till then, keep reading.  

:)

To My Grandmother ....

9th Dec 1924 - 13th Feb 09

Today is the day of your funeral,

We do not gathered here to mourn your death

But to celebrate your new life

A new life without any pain but only joy from Him

I pray to God that we will meet again.

Your death was a shock, but we all were expecting

a call one day, saying you had died.

We got that call three days ago.

When I answered the phone, I could feel something

was wrong.

It was Daddy.

He said we need to come home, because you had passed

away.

As days passed, I got used to your not being here.

We all love you and miss you so much.

I Love You Nenek ......

Picture of the day!

Welcoming the Ox!

Dear Bloggers,

Wishing you a Happy & Prosperous Chinese New Year. 

Gong Xi Fa Chai everyone

Hope the new year bring peace, love & health, as well as financial security and wellbeing for all of us. 

Tomorow my family & I will be going up to Kudat. Another holiday for us and I am supposed to do my packing and here I am sitting in front of the pc ....blogging!

OK lah signing off now .......

 

Xmas 2008

I am back home since last Sunday. Was too tired to update my blog .... Just laze around in the house doing nothing. I think I have gain a few kilos (again) since holiday season ... 

So how was your Xmas celebration? Mine was very simple ..but most importantly  I celebrated it with my mum & family in kampung. We didn't do any big party or open house like we used to do last time, we just had a small makan2. Phoebe was having a great time in Tambunan with her cousins as she can run around the house and experience new things. Didn't have the chance to bring her to mandi sungai as it was raining all the time. 

Anyway, once I'm free and have the mood will upload the photos during the hols ya ...

p.s I have a weird feeling when I was in Tambunan recently, its not that I'm not happy to be home, but that is not the "home" where I grow up.. It's been almost 9 years I live outside my "comfort zone" ....I know some people has been living on their own longer than me , but I'm glad that I have proved to myself that I'm independent ...

Busy Weekends!

It was a long weekend and bil & family was also in town (supposedly for Xmas Shopping .. hehe) We went to 1Borneo on Sunday night and it is very frustrating that the shop there closed exactly at 10pm! We were just finished our dinner at Restoran RasaMas and were about to go for window shopping when we see everybody has started packing already. And we didnt even get to buy donuts .. sigh. So we drove straight back to City Mall hoping that they still have some donuts, but still to our disappointment that they too are closing!(taaaapunn donut lah.. hehe). Anyway, just wanna share some of the kids photos taken during the weekends. And oh ya .. Its Xmas mood everywhere ... lovely!

My fav!

Discount or Discounted?

Discount or Discounted? Is that word a present tense or past tense? Hmmm ...

Last Saturday went to 1Borneo with the family. So we drop by at one of the shop there. At the shop entrance we saw a poster like this....

Off-Season Sale (Normal Font)
60% Discount (Bold & very big font)
Only for selected items (very small font....hmmm catchy eh?)

Since we saw the big 6 - 0 we were so thrilled to check out the things there....

So after few minutes browsing Wen finally saw 1 very cute knee-length pant. So we calculated the price after the 60% and it’s considered very cheap! So Wen decided to try it out and it fits perfectly on her so she decided to buy it! Actually she ask me to buy it too...(haha nanti jadi uniform lah pulak kan... hehe)

And what really surprise us is ................

The sales assistant tells her that the price on the tag "is the price after discount"!!!!!! And that pants is actually NOT on 60% discount ...only have 40% discount, and that is the final price on the tag.

I was really shocked. Off course mah kan.. because when we went into the store only 1 rack has that notice on it saying with 60% discount! So of course automatically u will think that whatever on that rack is on sale, right? Actually Hubby did ask which of the items that are on sale and the guy was pointing at the rack nearer to us and the one behind us! The funny thing is now he said the pant is only 40% discount???? and the price is already discounted??? WTF man??? Why do you have to put up a notice that you are having a sale and yet the price on the tag is already discounted??? And now you have 40% Discount as well??? And which item that is really on 60% discount??? My gawddddddd!!!!! Totally misleading!!And cheating too! They shouldn't put the price after discount mah kan .. they should put the before and after! aiyoohhhh ....

Poor Wen, I know she really like the pant.

Anyway, talking about all this sales & discounts item .. now I doubt it whether they do applied a valid license for their sales campaign. Because as far as I know (my previous company) it's not easy to get a license for you to do a Cheap Sale or Year End Sales. And you cannot even do sales like 10 times in a year??And when you fill up the form you must write the purpose of your sales, whether it's a year end sales, clearance stock or etc. Hmmm ..now I wonder whether all this shops doing sales got license or not ..or they just simply stick a note outside their premise saying ...buy buy buyyyyy!! Cheap Saleeessss!!!!


Anyway, the pant was hot! I love it too! But for a knee length pants that cost around $394 before discount and after discount of 40% is $236.40 ... I don’t think it’s worth it.

So be extra careful with the discount thingy, dh always reminds me that .......

And to those shop owners, please make sure that your label is not misleading to the customer... It is very frustrating and annoying you know.......

LaZy ...LAZY ....lazy......L@zY!

Lazy ... Yes that is one word that can describe me now! I am so lazy to update this blog! haha..Anyway, Im busy with so many things at home that's why I don't have time to update my blog ....



This morning went to St Francis Convent to registered Phoebe for her next year kindergarten school. And I was a bit shocked to find out that nowadays school fee are very expensive,*sigh*. Hubby & I are still trying to figure out how to send/fetch her before & after school. If not, I might have to drive every day to work to send & fetch the kids! duhhh .. I hate driving in KK with all those uneducated drivers! Who likes to park anywhere & jump Q! suka makan jalan lagi! So friends, if you happen to see me on the road next time, please forgive me if I don't wave back at you because some of the road users really drives me crazy!!!! *sigh*

Anyway, tomorrow we are going to attend Phoebe's Mini Concert & Graduation Day at Bukit Padang. She is very excited as she will be performing in the sumazau dance ...Hopefully this year she won't have the stage fright again like last year ... **cross finger**, even her teacher said hopefully she will be able to go up the stage this year..( she skip her performance last year ..hehe) Well, hopefully everything went well tomorrow....

And ya ..tomorrow BIL & Wife will be coming ...soooo its time for window shopping! But alamak .. haven't clean the house yet ...

Oklah got-to-go & will post Phoebe's concert photo soon!

We are 6 yo!

Mr & Mrs A.Mosinoh

It's our 6th year wedding anniversary today, and also dh birthday!


Yesterday went to watch movie (Madagascar 2) with the kids, but too bad Wyatt didn't like the noise so hubby have to bring him out from the cinema.


Today went to have brunch in our fav. rest and headed to 1Borneo. Hubby bought me a new electric oven for the anniversary present... So now it's time to show my baking skill..(if got skill lah... ! Lol!)

Busy Bee!

Obviously there haven't been any new post here ...since ?? hmmm .....

Yup ! Lately I am so busy with so many things! (yes ! Phoebe & Wyatt made us busy with their demands & wishes....) And have no idea to blog about anything .... I know I haven't done all the tags from my friends ..... arrrgggghhhh! not only busy but I am super lazy too! Maybe because too much of rendang & kari ayam .... hoho going to gain a few kilos again!

Was supposed to post Isaac's first few steps .. but ...hmmmm... can't find the video on my pc! Anyway, he has started walking now. Will post the kids recent photo (when I got time lah ya ...)

Lastly ...can't wait for Harry Potter this coming November!!!! yeeeahhhhh ... and ohh Christmas too! hehe ...

Updates!

What have I done lately? Not much activity actually ... Last Saturday I decided to try one of the recipe from my cookbook, Doughnuts! hehe ... and Phoebe has her fun time decorating her donut with melted chocolate & chips with some funny star shape candy ........ The next day we just stay at home because daddy have to attend some class. And during lunch time we went to McD at the Terminal 1 airport with hubby & Uncle Ben. After fetching hubby from class, we went to Lokawi Army camp to buy some food from the Bazaar Ramahdan there ...After the whole day eating junks .. that nite my nightmare came! Phoebe keeps on vomiting & Isaac got diarrhea ...And I got stomach upset too! My gawdd, I'm not sure what has caused it but the kids didn't eat the food I bought from the Bazaar Ramahdan, only me & hubby... I pity Phoebe because she cannot even take anything only pure water ... That night before sleep, Phoebe told me that she doesn't want to go to school the next day because she scared that she will start vomiting in class .... ohh poor girl! so mummy have to look after the sick girl at home (and of course Isaac also have to stay at home)

During the Mooncake Fest. we went to Gaya Street but since there is no "valid" parking space (unless u park curi2 lah ... but no we are not an idiot who just simply park their cars anywhere ok..) so we left lah ... Phoebe was so sad because she didn't get to watch the performance & the lanterns.

Last wednesday hubby went outstation, so left me & the kids at home. Luckily they have been very "kuai kuai" but Phoebe miss her daddy soo much that she keeps on asking when is daddy coming home ..... *sigh*

So, can't wait for weekend tomorrow.....

Lately I have been watching news around the clock. Why? because politics is getting more interesting from day to day... and I wonder why do people make such a big fuss about 31.08 or 16.09, before this nobody even care, so why now? Don't say that I didn't learn my history ... *sigh*

Home Sweet Home

Reach KK around noon today, straight home & dozed of too sleep.... too tired with the journey home I guess.. Had a mixed feeling .. soo happy to be home, in my own bed (and my stinky blanky...hehe) and yet still have that sad feeling since everyone is in Tawau ...huhu

Went to 1Borneo to watch Wall-E with Phoebe just now and had dinner there too. Will post photo soon so wait lah ahhh .. (when I have the mood ….)

Time to sleep ...nitey! xoxoxo
