me, myself and i

Today I got the mood to come to the newly open shopping mall which is about 10 minutes drive from my place,and have some alone time here. In fact, i came here for Mc D brekkie last Friday too with some quick shopping. Recently i am very lazy to get out from the house, don't have particular reason, just feel too lazy....

So here i am, in Starbucks,  it is rather small but cozy place. There are 4 tables taken including mine. Two tables discussing about business (i don't mean to eavesdrop their conversation but the table arrangement is very near with one to another), another one lady also having her alone time just like me.

I am just wondering or imagining is there a possibility that a guy walk over and want to sit down and have a drink with me. hahaha... i am day dreaming i know... hahahaaha

Time to go, ciao

27.3.2014 女朋友之约

上个星期四，我约了学院朋友A小姐喝下午茶和J小姐吃晚餐。其实我们三个都有在联络，不过A小姐不能一起吃晚餐，因为晚上要顾小孩，而J小姐有做工，不能中午出来，我只好分开跟她们见面。

早上11点就出门和老哥和嫂嫂吃点东西，然后就去Publika会A小姐。我们1.30 见到面，然后选了间bistro cafe吃了午餐和甜点。A小姐有两个小孩，一男一女，两年前被证实患上乳癌第二期，所以过后就一直往医院跑。那天她告诉我前两天（她的生日），拿到验血报告，不是很乐观，癌细胞有扩散。。。我很想哭，不过我不能哭，因为会让她更伤心。。我表现得很淡定，静静的听她的报告。。。

接下来她必须做镭射，再做检验，然后化疗。她说她拿了报告后哭了几天，然后没事了。我就告诉她不要难过，绝望，要向前看。。。我知道用说的比什么都容易，如果换成是我，我不知道我会如何面对。。。我说尽量别让自己空闲下来，因为会胡思乱想。做些自己喜欢的事，然后尽量让自己有自己的时间，宠宠自己，了解自己。她是个全职妈妈，打扫洗衣煮饭顾孩子，样样都自己包办。我称她为女强人中的女强人。每次见到她，都忍不住称赞她一番，因为我实在不能跟她比嘛。

5点我从Publika开车前往隆市区Life Centre 会J小姐。我们会在Barbeque Garden。没拍照，因为真的没心情。。吃了后，9点走路到对面的coffee bean继续聊。觉得好舒服，好享受，不过到了10点，我的电池已经要完了。虽然J小姐还想继续聊到10点半，不过我真的耐不住了。。真的很困了。其实J小姐第二天要出国去日本公干和自己自助旅行，所以我一直催她回家，因为她还有做好全部的准备。她时常自己自助旅行的。

回到了家，还继续跟哥哥哈啦到一点多才睡觉。。。我真的不认老都不行了。。。我真的难以相信10点我就累了。。。唉。。。老了啦。。。。

网购。。。

我从没网购的习惯（除了买小孩的衣服外），其余的我只是满足我的眼福。自从我唯一的一对耳环非常奇怪的不见前面的一颗后（后面的有在哦），我一直没带耳环，应该有半年多了吧。那一对是亲友在我结婚时送我的，蛮贵的（因人而异啦），因为是纯钻石。所以我一直在懊恼着我的耳洞会密掉。。。

我这个人厚，很挑的，看不上眼的我不会要，别人怎么说好看，sorry，我不会买啦。。。而我这个人，每样东西只有一件（衣服例外）。拖鞋，耳环，发夹，高跟鞋，宴会包包等等等，都是我的唯一至爱，我会用到坏掉为此。跟朋友出去，每次看到我就说，吖，你鞋蛮耐的，还没换？ 这是洁癖的一种吗？我不懂，不过张郎就每次形容我很“巧测” 福建音，意思是非常麻烦，挑剔。。。我可以去逛一整天，两手空空回家。所以我喜欢的，我会舍得买下，因为知道我会用很久很久。。而张郎知道他没办法阻止我，反对无效，他多数会买给我啦。。免得惹祸上身。。

而那耳环，我已经看了好几家的了，不是不喜欢它的造型，就是太贵了。。。一直到我看到一个在我脸书的网店放香奈尔的耳环，而且又是现货，赶紧问我几时可以拿到手。还好现货在吉隆坡，我拿了联络号码，一直犹豫着该不该买。这耳环我每次出国都有在机场看过，不过当时我有耳环了，所以只是看爽的。几经波折才让我联络上卖家，因为之前拿的号码是错的，所以我联络不上，很着急怕会先被别人买去。不过还好没有。。阿弥陀佛。。。

昨早，汇了钱后，傍晚可以拿货。我还蛮担心的，怕被骗，毕竟是蛮贵的，而且又没买过。一整天很焦急。。。哈哈哈。。最后拿到手了。。刚开始不是很喜欢，因为有点超大的，幸亏不是那种很闪很闪的。。。不过越看越喜欢。如果下次要买纯钻石的，小小粒就好。。。张郎麻烦你开我的部落格来看下，乖。。。

哈哈哈。。。

我人生中第一“粒”香奈尔诞生了。。。第二粒希望是很久很久以后。。（我帮张郎说的，看，我几好下，简直是知书达理。。哇哈哈哈哈）.

看到袋子就很爽，尤其是那白色的花。。如果张郎只是买袋子给我，我就很满意了。。是真的才怪叻。。。

反常。。

昨天，张郎竟然介绍我看一部连续剧！而且还是爱情的叻。。哇，张郎是不是不对路？通常都是我跟他说哪部好看的，虽然说我很少很少看连续剧，通常我都是看电影的。他要我看的是一部名叫（大男当婚）的中国连续剧，我还没看呢。。。看了再分享观后感吧。。。

题外话，我想再度分享有关脱发护理的配套。话说去年九/十月，张郎有天说，为什么我的头顶有秃头症状？其实之前我姐，我妈也都一直说我的头发越来越少，有脱发现象；而我自己洗头时也掉很多很多头发，不过我真的很懒得理。而且之前我有问张郎我有脱发现象吗？他说没有！明明之前说没有，又突然说有！真的是 X#@$#%^。。。而我也逐渐焦虑起来，因为就连张郎都发现我的秃头，那还得了？？我深信脱发是因为生了张小女后荷尔蒙失调所造成的。之前生张大女也是有脱发，不过几个月后就恢复正常了。现在张小女都两岁五个月了，那脱发还是死缠烂打。生气到。。。。！！！！

我就问了三间护理脱发疗程的配套，价格如下：-
1。 10次RM1000 （每次两小时，离家5分钟）
2.  10次 RM500 外送洗头水一瓶 （每次一小时，离家15分钟）
3. 10次RM650 （每次一小时，离家15分钟）

这疗程会从洗发，再发上ampure，再吹干。

我选了第二个，因为之前去那里洗过头，那洗头小姐的按摩功夫一流,而且又是最便宜的，就试试看吧。。。做了十次，老实说，真的有好到，洗发时掉的头发少很多很多，大概80%。我几乎每礼拜去一次。十次后，很开心看到效果，就想可以不用再做了。。过了一个月左右，同样的问题来了，开始掉很多很多头发。。。所以就再签过十次。地点是-Storm，在Carefour 附近的

Getaway again!

Yesterday evening, while chatting with Ms. J, we got a last minute plan to chill out in Setia Walk Puchong. I have never heard & been there before and i didn't dress up as usual for outing this time. I was running out of time to do so as I need to settle everything back home before I am able to escape from home. While looking out for the places, I have missed the turn to the place for THREE times before i reached there. We went to Chilla Cup that located at a very nice place, right opposite a pub with live band separated with a man-made river. It has a very nice ambiance with breezy air around. We decided to hang out more often there in the future.

 I ordered breakfast there. It tasted not too bad.

 

                                           Hot chocolate for drinks but it is way too sweet.

 This morning, I went to a new place near my place - Croissant and Cafe. It has a very nice feel when i stepped into this cafe - a corner for reading and jazz music. I felt so relax. I will surely go again for the books.

Batu Pahat Getaway!

For the last few days, i have been busy doing things: hair cut, facial and spending times with kids. I wanted to clear all my things before the weekends because i already have plans. Before that i was planning to abandon Mr. Teo and enjoy my ladies trip with my friend, and it was so happened that he was having his business trip. So it was really a perfect timing.

My friend J works in Kuala Lumpur and she is from Kuantan. We knew each other during college time and she actually wrote a story about our college life. We become even closer after graduation. Although we are from total different background, basically there is nothing similar between us, but we are both very close friend.

J reached Batu Pahat on Friday late night, we planned to go Johor Premium Outlet and Kukup on the next day. While i fetched J from bus station back home, she noticed a signboard that reminds her of a place, Tanjung Piai. She mentioned to me while we were discussing on our itinerary of Saturday, but seriously I never come across to this place before. I didn't even google it because i am quite confident the place is very far from either JPO or Kukup. After she pointed the signboard which has been long standing somewhere in Batu Pahat town which i NEVER noticed it as well, i know what is in her mind and i prepared to bring her there.

On Saturday, we set off at around 10am after having breakfast in Batu Pahat. We spent about two hours shopping in JPO and we continue our journey to Tanjung Piai which is very near to Kukup. It was a very HOT Saturday and seriously i didn't really enjoy the heat even i was in an air con car. I thought Tanjung Piai is kind of a beach, and we could just sit inside the car and drove around. I WAS SO WRONG!!!!!!!

When reached there, (we thought we reached), we get down from the car and walked towards a cafe on a bridge under the HOT SUN!!! It was a disaster when i knew the place was not where J wanted to go. After got the information from someone there, we drove further to explore the place J wanted to go. After we reach, it was not as bad as what i thought but it is just the SUN. After purchased RM5 entry ticket per person, we started our adventurous journey on our feet. It was a reserved jungle, with bridges that lead us to a few places. With a dress, a slipper, i was on wrong attire for this kind of outing. But seeing J was very excited after we finally found the place, i do not want to disappoint her. So i just followed to walk on the bridge to the destination that J was really interested to see - the globe of Tanjung Piai.

For your information, Tanjung Piai is is a cape in Johor which is the southernmost point of Penisular Malaysia and thus the most southern point of mainland Euroasia.From there, we are able to see the island of Singapore and Pulau Jawa. In fact, i received an SMS from Indonesia telecommunication company. 

While we finally reached the globe, it was another disaster to J because according to her, it was a real globe with maps on it, but the globe in front of us is just an empty globe with the word Tanjung Piai only. I wasn't really enjoy the "scene" because it was very super windy and i can hardly walk without using my hand holding tight on my dress. While worrying about my flying dress, J was busy taking photos around. After several shots, we then proceed to Kukup. J was hoping to go to Kelong to see puffer fish but we are too late for the sea transport to the kelong. After walking around, we had our seafood dinner there and then headed back home. We played wishes lantern bought from Kukup in front of my house. It ended our wonderful one day trip.

Seriously i enjoyed everything except the SUN, the heat and the sweat. Afterall, i was happy as J was satisfied with all the things she want to see and do. It is a life happiness to be able to travel with family and friends. I look forward for my next trip.

Here comes friday again!!!!!

Today is Friday, my favourite and most relax one. Normally i will go for breakfast in Taipan which takes about 15 to 20 minutes drive depends on traffic. Today i choose to go Puchong instead as i was leaving late from home. I came to a cafe Hainan Tea and i ordered cheong fun. It was too heavy for me as the cheong fun has chicken wrapping. Maybe it is because of i seldom eat meat or chicken nowadays.

Not that yummy for me

The weather out there is gloomy. I decided to come home early so i won't be caught in rain later. i was  thinking what to write in my blog while i was driving. (i was writing halfway just now in the cafe). I had a daring idea of writing it in 3 languages. So looking forward for my malay post next time when i have the idea on what to write with the right mood.

Next week would be my last week of part time teaching job. I  do not think i will continue teaching part time unless it is once a week, as i need to rush to college and back from college. Honestly this is definitely not a high pay job as what everyone assume. It is purely because of the passion i have on lecturing in business subject and management. As i do not have adequate corporate experience, i do not get offer from university even though i have experience on teaching 3rd year students and even supervising final year projects. 

I am now thinking of getting some freelance or home based job to do. Becoming a personial tutor is the best option it seems as i am able to juggle my work and my children at the same time. It is such a shame that a personal tutor can make much more money than a part time lecturer based on hourly basis. Does that mean i will stop lecturing? i guess not as long as i get opportunity to do so in the future.

Another thing that i want to record in this post is some violent act of mine. Yesterday i was showing off my temper to my elder daughter while coaching her doing her homework. We spent two hours on practicing her writing and the best part is she didn't finish all her homework. I beat her head with my hand  and i beat her hand with a ruler and i shouted and screamed at her like a mad woman once i'm not happy with what she wrote. I don't know whether i am the only freak mum who treat her own 5 years old daughter that way, or i'm not alone in the world. I think i would be charged with child abuse anytime soon with all the screaming, shouting and of course crying noise in my house. I did feel regret on what i did (i know it is useless after all the "damage" had been done on her). But after cool down a bit, i started to shout at her again. Such a lousy mum i am... Sigh...... An impatient mum they have.... 

A little note to my eldest daughter, V : Darling, i'm sorry for what i did on you yesterday night. I shouldn't beat you just because i am your mum and i'm expecting you are up to genius level in everything i teach you. I am very strict on every single stroke you are writing as a wrong stroke may end up writing different word with a different meaning. A strong base will be very helpful for you in the future.
