::And this...and That....::

Let's recap things that happened between the last entry and today's:


1. Post Hospitalization.


Harris was allowed to be discharged on the 5th day. That's when his antibiotic course completed. Man, that was the longest 5 days of my life. Just imagine handling a sick hospitalized 10 months old infant all by yourself without your husband by your side. One word: Meroyan!


But alhamdulillah... one thing bout my son (which till this second Im so thankful to the almighty) he doesn't get cranky whenever he is sick... be it high fever... be it teething ... he'll just be himself...the only difference is, he's a tad bit less active than usual. That's all.


Ok, let's start with the hospital. Services (i.e the nurses, foods, clerks etc...minus the doc) was at par with my expectation. Nurses was VERY tentative and attended to every requests or inquiries that I have.Kudos. The food served was one notch up than Ampang Puteri (comparison made based on almost a month stay attending my dad who did his heart by-pass there...so...i know what Im talking about). Room... requested a single room,and it was better than AP's single executive room... what elese? ................. eermm... they have Dome and 1901 ... and few other small shops and even a salon! Apekah??? The only downturn is, we had to buy the internet connection instead of having it for free... c'mon la maybe they should upgrade it by giving free WiFi. Kedai mamak pun free wifi ok!


Owh ... suddenly in a K.Nam Mode: During our stay there, we kept on seeing a silver Lamborghini .. or Lambogini... or Lamboginie?? however u spell it la...parked at the valet (which is right in front of the main entrance) ... so being the busybody us (yes us! coz it wasn't just me...the whole clan pun busybody skali) wanted to know who's that hot shot driving the smoking hot rod... it turned out to be... itu adalah kereta kepunyaan ...are u guys ready for this??? Bukan anak raja..bukan menteri....akan tetapi adalah kereta EX-HUSBAND NO*RA DA*NISH! Yezzerrrrrrrr.....and rase nye anak dier pun admitted and they were on the same floor as Harris. Coz every morning I will bring Harris for his morning walk ..tak kemana pun..just checking out the entire floor and say hello to nurses... sekali tu terserempak pule dengan NO*RA DA*NISH dan anak nya.... She's very petite ... Cute too in person... ok end of k.nam session..

Now....don't get me started on the doctor... let's start a new entry on this shall we? So..lepas baca entry ni..procee to the next entry yeah.. kalau nk tahuuu..

All in all, our stay was ok... nothing can beat Denver children's hospital.. although its a govt hsptl, but the facilities, services... gawwwddd first class...dlm bilik ade XBOX 360... 40inch flat screen tv...they even have NO SHARING ROOM POLICY...which means... each kid will get their own room...so u can never find a child sharing room la...some more got pantry yg fridge dier fully loaded!! Kidding u not!!! Sampai frozen TV dinner tu pun ade....my Fev JEll-O...All sort of baverages ... internet connection etc...etc... can't imagine how's the private hsptl's services would be... beyond expectations kot??... jangan la benci saya for comparing things... coz once u experinced the best... u can't help it but to compare..trust me..


That's my mom with Harris at the ER... notice the cherpy-happy looking face? Don't let him fool you..his temp at that very moment was 40c!

SO that's the cheeky boy in his room... sebok bermain... another thing... I LOVE this PJ that he's wearing... very the comel ok... depan gambar horse...belakang siap ade ekor dier... all the nurses semua tegur baju dia... menyesal tak beli few more...we bought it when we visited Santa Fe last summer.

2. Not so surpirse birthday party

On the 4th day of our stay... we managed to get "house leave" (which means u can leave the hospital but it doesn't mean u're discharge from the hospital..u need to come back for check up and medication)...from the doctor so that we could attend my aunty's birthday party... which was supposely to be a surprise party but end up her son already told her dah....shiesh! the word is...potong stim!!!!!!!! Nevertheless, the party was great.. ramai la jugak family members yg datang... maybe coz the grams was around.. so maybe everyone took the opportunity to spend time with him...kot....

Some of the birthday party pictures.

Owh pastu saje nk story-mory.... during our stay at the hsptl, one of my uncles came which merangkap pangkat atok la to my darling son kan... the moment he entered the room..my son was jumping up and down... he was super excited.. eveyone was surprise and puzzled in the same time...apekah dia kenal sama itu atok??? Then when my uncle held him...Harris was superrrrrrr manjeee and clinging... like seriously! Then suddenly I saw him doing things that he ONLY does on his daddy (which is my husband la kn) ... contoh: usik his janggut area...lentok kn kepala on his shoulder .... and he did the same exact thing at my uncle.... Then only I realize.. he must be thinking that my uncle is his daddy... he MISSES his daddy soo much....Awwww........kesian nyeee....

One of the many pictures taken ..harris with one of his many atoks which he think its his dad...

::All The Way From Gleaneagles::

Been away for quite sometime since my last entry. Reason being... busy....busy...busy... BHAMMM!! Hospital!

It started off with all the hectic schedule meeting old friends... playdates for Harris etc.. then not till last weekend Harris was down with a very high tempt.. Kidding u not... high 40's Cel. Madness I tell u. The first 2 days was high 38's but then the 3rd and 4th been on high 40's... at first we just sponge bath him but the 40s kept on coming back.. thats when we decided that its time to run him to the ER.

Brought him to the ER... got him admitted ... Did blood and urine test. Got the results which aren't pleasant at all... and to add insult to the injury... I had a Major quarrel with the Pediatrician who are treating lil H. Ok, that will need an entry all by itself coz memang panjang lebor story dier...

So, after recieving the ugly result from the blood culture, lil H have to extend his stay up to another 5 days...

But no offence la.... I was sooo naive thinking that by going to the expensive hospital, I'll get a top notch treatment... I was wrong!

Tak pe la.. we'll trash and bash on next entry as of now... kite bye-bye dulu coz I gotta attend the lil fella ...

To you guys out there.... make sure to ALWAYS wash your hands... no matter what...

Nanite u'ols....

::Chasing Pavements::

I've noticed that lately ... I've been having this unidentified weird feelings about something.... And this "something" really is bothering me ... and some how This song really can relate to my situation ... This is sooo not normal ... really ... Damn you!!!!!!

I may misinterpret this song ... but do u guys know what this song is all about????



Chasing Pavements by Adele


I've made up my mind,
Don't need to think it over
If I'm wrong, I am right
Don't need to look no further,
This ain't lust
I know this is love
But, if I tell the world
I'll never say enough
Cos it was not said to you
And that's exactly what I need to do
If I end up with you


Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there
Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere

I build myself up
And fly around in circles
Watin' as my heart drops
And my back begins to tingle
Finally, could this be it


Or should I give up
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there

Should I give up
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place should I leave it there
Should I give up
Or should I just keep on chasin' pavements
Should I just keep no chasin' pavements
Ohh oh

::Sooner than we expected::


Few weeks ago darling sweetheart did mentioned that its gonna snow and it was only October ... Usually, it won't snow in Colorado till end of Nov or Dec but the heaviest would be in Jan.

SO, in my mind, it won't be that heavy since its still early for it... maybe just some drizzle that's it.

But I was wrong... 2 days ago, Denver was showered with heavy snow and it was all white out... Schools and offices were close for few days.

Owh boy! I was shocked... coz its only October ...

Now with this we, Coloradian, know what to expect out of this early signs... Winter Thunder Storm....


*See how thick it was... picture taken from my friend, Terry on her facebook*



Wahhh... I get really nervous when it snow this heavy.... really nervous ....the road is too slippery .... its not safe to travel without any good reason... its hard for me to go to school... what more to travel out of the state via airplane.

Ok... right now... this very moment.. I am soo distracted by Nur Kasih... will get back on this later...

::What???!!!! What???!!! Are you talking to me????!!!::


ok ini adalah topic VERY THE BOMB wa cakap sama luuu ~

OK...it started off on the way home from Cameron last weekend after visiting atok....

On the way home to, we stopped at R&R Tapah coz saye teringin nk makan jambu yg kaler pink tu kn....and limau bali and all the local fruits kat situ...

As usual, on weekends especially sunday harus la fully packed that area with all the travelers heading south (eh turun KL south eh??)...


SO daddy managed to get a parking spot gempak which is right infront one of those fruit stalls tu ...

Maka kami 3 beranak (Mom,Bro & Me) pun turun... first pit stop was the rest room... mom and bro had to go...fine... I waited outside... Dah kate toilet Malaysia kn... We're so famous for our "Wangi and Bersih" toilets kn... I yg nk kencing ni terus tak jadik bile melihat kn keadaan toilet tu....

Ok enough with the toilet...after
that we walked to the fruit stalls area.....we purposely choose kedai melayu, nk tlg org sendiri kn... Then we spotted one...

Initially I wanted to get the big bag of jambu pink tu.... lepas tanye satu bag tu.....makcik terkejut ok!! tau how much????? FReaKING RM18 !!!!!! Wahhhh... makan Nandos kah kita?? atau makan jambu??? and its only for 1kg tau....

Terus terbantut hasrat nk beli bag besar tuh....kemudian saye beransur ke fridge kecil di depan kedai tu....coz kedai tu ade jugak jual jambu yg dh di potong ready to eat...so you just choose la...

Fridge dier kecik aje...siape tau zaman kegemilangan Vitagen kalau kite pegi kedai mamak dier ade fridge kecik warna putih khas for vitagen aje...haaa fridge mcm tu la dier guna....

So, Bile makcik berdiri depan fridge tu harus la penuh satu fridge tu makcik conquer dah kate badan bagai di pam-pam kus semangat nye kn (Very demotivating diri sendirik...lantak!) ...... Kemudia sedang I memilih which fruits to get, suddenly ade satu tangan ni dari tepi sebok2 selok masuk fridge tuh....Very
the KIASU i tell you!!!!

I was taken aback because even after I gave the Kiasu lady a look, she kept on doing it....mcm knon2 dlm dunia dia dier sorang aje la dh lambat......

So, being the CIVILIZED person, I stepped back to give her way to "meng-kiasu" kn diri depan fridge while all three of us PLUS the rest of the people who were lining up behind me can watch her Kiasu-ness. Before I stepped back tu,I said "OWh My Gawww
dddd" ..with a very disgusted face...... So she noticed it but kept on doing it... that's what I don't get it...

There's nothing wrong kalau you TER-potong line..coz sometimes when we're really in a hurry, we tend to over look other people kn... so the best way for u to do is.... to apologize ... say sorry ..usually people will give way to u...People pun in general tak lah jahat mane nk sama-sama Kiasu dengan you (unless you meet your own "species") sampai tak nk give way to u kn.....

Then she continued choosing her fruits
then went right away to line up... fine..... I just brush it away la...malas nk besar2 kn hal dengan org "tak de otak ni"....

Then while lining up...happened to be we all pun belakang si minah kiasu ni la.....

Tengah beratur tu my bro asked me la... why I didn't get the Jambu pink in the big bag coz dlm kereta bukan main lagi lahap nk makan segala jambu kn.... then I explain la how expensive it is... tak koser nk beli....bla....bla....bla...

WHEN SUDDENLY...........................................................
.................................................................
................................................................
...............................................................

THE KIASU LADY TURN AROUND FACING US SAYING:

KIASU LADY: WHAT????!!!! EXCUSE ME!!!!!!
WHAT??????!!!!!!! (dengan mata terbeliak like seriously Im not kidding... rupe dia mcm dlm gambar kat bawah ni)

*Gambar adalah from Google*

Just imagine...terkejut tak you?????

I had a shock of my life!!!

But I remained calm...then I said with a very ANNOYED FACE :

ME: No, I was just telling him (pointing to my bro) that the fruit is so expensive...What's your problem????



HAAAAAAAAAAAAA.....AMEK KAUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!! TAU MALUUUUUUUU!!!! RIGHT AT YOUR FACE!!!!!!!!!!!



Dari tadi nk tunjuk bagus kn......

Perasan la org nk mengata pasal dier..padahal tak sedar org tak koser nk layan "Otak-less" people mc dier... iya la bak kata my bro... org bile salah they'll tend to be Hyper-sensitive...which in this case is soooo true!

Kan dh terperasan snediri........

Pastu dengan malu nye dier pusing depan....

In the same time next to us ade a group of guys...nampak mcm college students...semua dh gelak terbahak-bahak kat this Kiasu Lady...padan muka kauuuuuuuuuuuuuu~

Pastu in the same time my bro pulak being sarcastic,lepas pompan tu dh pusing balik he said:

My bro: Eeeeee malu...sapa ckp pasal dier ntah....eeeeeeeee malu nyeeeeee...malu nyeeeeeee......hahahahah

RASAKAN!!!!...

Lepas dier dh bayar.....cepat dier lari ...tau malu kn.....

So moral of the story.... next time people,if there are instances whereby we accidently cut into the line or didn't reazlize there;s a line formation, Quickly apologize after you realize it... people don;t really mind it as long as u apologize. Ni tidak.... wahhh..lagi naik minyak ingat kite hormat dier la that's why we give way.... No! That's not right ....

Lawak betul la... ade jugak jumpe org mcm ni kn.... on the way home, in the car we couldn't stop laughing .... hilarious ok!

::The Dying Old Man::



Lately emosi adalah VERY terganggu due to my grams is VERY sick.

He have been going up and down from Cameron Highlands to KL for his endless medical check-ups.

He was at our place during his last check-up.

Oleh itu it was my pleasure to entertain him.. plus there's lil H to cheer him up. (too many ups!)

He's condition is very terminal. Doctors been telli
ng us that he only has 6 months to live but he made it till now...which is close to 2 years already.... as we always said, Atok ni semangat dia tinggi... that's what keep him going.

But now we can see that he's deteriorating very bad. One of the signs that you're close to death is when you and rezeki adalah terputus. In my grams case,he hasn't been able to eat, be it solids or liquid. Kesian tengok dia. He used to be a 176
pounder (close to 80kg) now he's about 99 pounds (thats like 45kg)....
and it happened almost over night ...

Kesian atok... even he realize that his time is almost here. When he was here, he told my bro "Atok ingat atok tak lama dah ni... very soon" ..........haih......syahdu each time teringat at this line.

Now all he can do is termenung....termenung... and more termenung.... he's very depress ... I can tell.. we can tell.... maybe he has been thinking about death....sang
at kes
ian...

So, last weekend all of us went back to Cameron to visit him...Atok was admitted almost 1 week...and eventually when we were there, the doc told us to bring him home. There's nothing much they can do for him.

What really hurt me is, Atok physically still ok...he can walk... can sit... without assistance but the only thing is, he cant eat.. kesian betol... and he knows death is jst around
the corner, that's what makes it even worse. Bila dia termenung, its as
if he's waiting for the death angel to take his life away.... haih.... very depressing ok.

Another thing that really touched my heart really deep is when, we visited atok at the hospital last weekend, we were busy taking pictures with atok, when it came to my turn, atok held my hand in his,which he never did before... another one was time salam-salam dengan atok before leaving for KL, I salam atok and hugged him, suddenly he kissed my cheek... it really hurt me
so bad. Its like a gesture saying that, I won't be seeing you anymore after this.....

sedih.....................sedih....................

Nak doa supaya dia panjang umur pun,until when??? eventually we have to die too kan... he's close to 80 something years old dah...

So i don't know what else I can do to ease him
.....

thats atok holding my hand....





this is the bigger picture...

::The one and only kind, My dad::

Maklum la... since Im in Malaysia and temporarily "single", day in-day out, mesti ade aje memory flashing in pasal my zaman bujang contoh nye bile kemas almari sendiri at my parents house, ternampak surat2 cinta dengan ntah sape2 ntah (WHoah...mcm bagus yeah ..bercinta dengan "ntah sape2 ntah"...)..lagi nampak baju yg ala-ala baby-T pulak, mula la teringat zaman yg I kunun2 bersungguh berdiet dan bersonam mcm nk pitam ..mane tak nye...diet style diet Ghandi i.e tak makan langsung..pastu bersokan..bersonam mcm nk rak...amek rase kn...but hasil nye memang memuaskn la... merasalah I pakai jeans size 27 u'ols! =) dan sekrang tidak lagikkkkk... berganda2 size jeans tu....

Dannnnnnnn.............jeng......jeng.........jeng.......... one of the memory yg came back to me was memory "our first night" after bernikah..... ni memang lawak giler ok...

Ofcourse la lepas kawin we all tak de rumah sendiri kn...so tumpang tido rumah my parents la the first nite tu...

Siang hari yg nak akad nikah tu, boleh pulak ade budak ntah sape2 ntah terkurung dlm bilik pengantin...maka meraung,melalak la budak tu dlm bilik..mak budak ni pulak dah start panic bagai la kat luar bilik tu... last2 they had to take off the door knob in order to let the boy out.....oleh itu hasil nya.... bilik pengantin untuk hari itu berlobang kerna tiada door knob. Can u imagine that????

Lepas dh akad nikah semua... harus la nk tido kn...dah la feeling-feeling first time nk tido sekali dengan laki ni...nerbes mak oiii! hahahah...... itu satu...

Keduanye..... dah la nerbes kn....pintu pulak berlobang...so before we all nk tido we took kain pelekat pastu sumbat la kat lobang pintu tu.....tapi confirm2 la tak boleh nk buat ape mlm tu coz pintu lobang kn... org boleh tolak aje pintu tu coz tak boleh nk kunci...

Ok itu satu hal...

Hal yg lain pulak.........

malam tu jugak.... while I was getting ready nk tido...tukar baju semua... my darling sweetheart was outside at the living room with my dad and some other people....tengah rehat2 after the whole penat berkenduri kn...

Sekali when my darling husband was about to retire to our room, my dad call my darling sweetheart. Pakcik sorang ni mula gelabah... ape la bapak mentua ni nk ckp kn..... rupa2 nya.... nak tahu ape my dad told my husband??????????????

My Dad: Go Slow son....go slow........take it easy...

Suami-ku: Ape dad?? (dlm keadaan confuse and blur)

My Dad: Go Slow son.....go slow......take it easy.....


Suami-ku terkedu sebentar kemudian mula tersipu-sipu malu........baru dier paham yg my dad meant by "Go Slow and take it easy" tu.... kan its our first night together.....

Cheh!

Hampeh ok my dad ni... he's like that...memang sound directly aje... org keliling kene either pekak kn telinga or buat bodo aje...

Habis tu..si suami yg dh tersipu-sipu malu ni masuk la bilik dn bercerita dengan si isteri ni.... harus la makcik gelak sakan mcm kene hysteria kn...

Org yg kat luar ingat kami suami-isteri dh mula bermanja2...

Owh tidak........ nothing actually happened that night...

but seriously...

Lawak ok... berapa ramai para daddies out there yg sound menantu dier to "go slow" and "take it easy" on their daughter's first night????

Bengong!
