bonjour!

Assalamualaykum.

It took me a few text messages by Madame Asni when I finally decided to update here.
Was I busy 'elsewhere'??
Hrmmmmmmmmmmm...
Well, not really but partially yes. Hehe.

So many things that I really wanna share here, but right at this very moment, nothing seems to be coming out from my mind.
My fingers just keep on knocking on the keyboard without no specific topic at all.
Perhaps it's better for me to just be the reader this time.
At least during this school holidays.

Being at home is kinda distracting for me,you know..
Why?? THE KITCHEN is always calling out for me. LOL
I spent most of my time baking [if not sleeping in my room..hehe]

This couple of week I managed to bake a good almond tart for my family.
My first attempt,and according to Ma, it was scrumptious. Ehemmm!
Besides that, a chocolate cake [Abah's favourite now] and a horrible-looking-yet-delicious fruit pudding.
Tomorrow insyaAllah it will be either chocolate brownies or chocolate cupcakes.
[Baking gives me satisfaction somehow...]

I've been watching Martha Stewart quite religiously now, so no wonder lah kan?
Hehehehehehehehehe..

I guess that's all for now.
A little update from me just to make sure everybody knows I'm still around.

Wassalam.

freedom

Assalamualaykum.

These days, I mourn over the un-democratic situations in our country.
I feel like the freedom to state one's own opinion is blocked.
Citizens are being treated like rubbish.. with no mercy at all.
I wonder if this is the peaceful Malaysia we always boast about?

True, demonstration or street rally is not our 'budaya'.
Starting from the Batu Buruk incident to the BERSIH rally and the latest was the Hindraf demo.
But IMHO, the demonstrations would never turned out to be ugly if our police force did their part well.
After all they didn't mean any harm to the public at all.
If they weren't provoked with water canon and poison gas, I doubt they would act violently.
This is rather a case of something that was suposed to be so simple and easy to handle turned the other way around.

Truth be told, this entry is not my way of letting out my wrath against the government.
But watching the recent events,just made my heart ache.
There are definitely better ways to handle stuff but we preferred the hard and harsher way.
THE WORLD IS WATCHING US..
Sadly the 'friendly Malaysians' remains a tale now.

Media blackout?
Now that's another story to be wrapped up next time.

In the mean time I just need to ease my sadness upon what's happening in our beloved country.
And by that I mean another fruit pudding coming right up into my fridge!
Hehehehehehehe..

Wassalam.

Result.

Assalamualaykum.

So sorry for the long silence..
[not that anyone cares..]
I've been busy with things at work.
The usual stuff that need to be done before school ends.
Hence, I couldn't find time to blog or even blog-hopping...
[I miss reading pa'chik's ramblings.. Ms Istanbul's stories.. et cetera..]

Alhamdulillah, my kids bring a smile to me today.
2 of my kids scored 5As in their UPSR examination.
That's BIG news for us teachers in such small school like mine.
Sadly, my school Headboy got 4As and 1C.. his C was for my subject!
Huhhuhuhuhuhu.. felt like crying..
But seeing his I'm-already-satisfied-with-those-As face, I smiled.
I know my kids had done their best.

Alright, I guess that's all for now.
Still got some work to do before going back tomorrow.
Take care!!

Wassalam.
