Pengalaman Kena denda di Sekolah

2012-01-26T21:02:00.001+08:00

Pengalaman Kena denda di Sekolah (my experience being punished in school). I know many of you are naughty during your school days and had been punished (di denda) by your school teacher. I am not a "naughty girl" or "budak nakal" during school days but I also had some experience "di denda cikgu" (punish by teacher) because of my wrong doing during school days. Before I tell you my story, I think I need to tell you a little bit about my school. During my primary school, I went to SK Tagaroh in Kota Marudu until 1993. In 1994, I started my secondary school at SMK Kota Marudu until 1998.

To be honest, I don't have many experience being fined in school but I always remember the incident in 1993 when I was year 6 at SK Tagaroh. All happened because of a student who is a farm boy with a tanned skin. I don't know what happened to me during those days, I followed my friends calling him "Gobuk" (monkey) in class. We make fun of him until he cries. Someone reported the incident to "cikgu disiplin" (disciplinary teacher), whom also related to my mom and she asked me and my friends to meet her. I still remember all "10 naughty girlfiends" of mine name until these days. All of us go to the disciplinary teacher room and were given lecture about our wrong doing. After that, we were punished and everyone get beaten on their hand with cane.

When its my turn, the teacher twisted my ears and said to me:

"kau aa Bel, sudahlah kau ketua kelas, kau ikut-ikut lagi mengejek orang. Saya report nanti ko sama mama kau".

(Bel, you're the class monitor, why do you make fun of other people. Don't make me report this to your mother)

After that, all of us need to say sorry to him in-front of class and each of us shake hands with him.

Gambar Budak Nakal

Sound like a boring story, right? But this story doesn't end just like that. That boy bear a grudge with me and asked me to fight with him after school hour. I was so frightened and ran back home as fast as I can but he pursued me from behind. After I reached home, I told my dad, a boy want to fight with me and followed me home. When my dad came out from the house, that boy already runaway after hearing my dad shouting "budak nakal!". 3 days later, his parent came to my house and meet my dad. They were talking happily and I was shivering in my room. Afraid my dad know what really happened.

That is my story on "Pengalaman di denda di Sekolah". From the bottom of my heart, I want to say sorry to that tanned boy. I don't know what happened to him today but wish he has a wonderful life.

To all younger generation out there, teacher punish us to teach not because they hate us. Please don't do any "aksi panas", "aksi nakal", "langgar disiplin" or "melawan guru". One day you will regret it and it will be hard to take it back.

The Tagged and I

2011-12-22T15:17:00.000+08:00

A few days ago, I registered to one of the well known social network called Tagged. You must be wondering now what is the connection between the Tagged and I, right? Actually, there isn't any connection hehe, I just want to test just how easy I can get friends from there.

The picture above is my profile on Tagged and you can see there just how honest the info that I give. I even mention my real age and status, but the result is so amazingly surprising. In just one day, almost 200 peoples viewing my profile and almost 100 have added me as their friend, and from all of them, only one woman, the rest are men, hahaha.

I also got almost 100 messages in just one day, all had been asking how to contact me, my email or my phone number. Some even said 'the not so nice' words but I just ignored it all. Some keep pushing me to chat or reply their messages (like I have time for that).

Some are brave enough to leave comment on my wall. I am sure you all know that everyone can see the comments on my wall, unlike the messages which is more private.

I can imagine just what you have been wondering now, hehe. You must be thinking what's with all that, right? Actually, I just want to show you how easy I can get friends from social network. That's what I get from telling my real status and age. Just imagine what will I get if I put the fake info and picture like my previous post ' Noorazlina Abdul Aziz '.

Just put much younger age and sexy and pretty picture and I can imagine how easy and how many men will fall to her trap, right? and oh, did I mention that I didn't add anyone yet? They are the one who added me first, hehehe.

Noorazlina Abdul Aziz

2011-11-29T11:13:00.000+08:00

Noorazlina Abdul Aziz, well, personally, I don't have any connection with that name and I don't even know whether that name is her real name or not. What I really know is she's a cheater and always use that name in social networks to search for victims.

She's not using her real picture tough, the picture above is her latest picture and I really don't have any idea who's the real owner of the picture. Her main target are men who like to flirt around, men who admit to be single, divorced or in a complicated relationship, sex maniac or men who are crazily looking for a virgin and naive girl (which they might think would be an easy target to get).

I really don't have any idea about this matter until a few days ago when hubby told me about his friend's problem. Cannot believe that this kind of cheating is still exist. I mean, you have never meet her and yet you still willing to give her money. But I guess it's the same case as the scam email we got everyday saying that we won a total of money, the greedy one will fall for it, even nowadays.

While hubby been trying to help his friend, he found out a blog that told the story about that girl @ name. Turn out that she's been doing this kind of thing since 2006. So, I took sometime to read and understand it. From what I read, this girl will always tell you that her parents live in Kuala Lumpur while she's studying in Sabah. In our friend's case, she claimed that she's a UMS (Universiti Malaysia Sabah) student.

She will seduce you with her sweet and nice words, with her cute, pretty and sexy picture. Then she'll tell you that she has problem, for example; her car broke down and she didn't have enough money to repair it. She will ask if she can borrow money from you with a promise that she will pay it back when she get back to Kuala Lumpur (where she will asked to meet you at the airport).

As a man who already fall into her trap, thinking that your beautiful, sweet and naive girlfriend need help, you will certainly bank in the amount of money that she asked for. Come the day that you're supposed to meet her, she will never show up, worse, you can never reach her on the social network or phone after that.

She might tell you that she's really in love with you and cannot wait to see you. That she's ready to meet you but unfortunately she don't have enough money to buy a flight ticket. She will then ask if you can pay for her first or pay half of the price.

She might even tell you that she love your place (your town or state) and she would like to visit there if she has the chance to but she's afraid because she don't know anyone there and also, she don't know where to stay. As a man who think that this girl is naive, you will offer your place to stay. Thinking that you can sleep with her make you do exactly what she want you to do.

This woman sure know what she's doing and she really know how to gain trust of men. She will use different kind of way depending on what kind of man you are. If you're a sex maniac or crazy for a virgin girl, she will use the last way. No sex maniac will refuse a sweet girl who don't know where to stay, right?

Our friend lost RM1000.00 to this woman, so men out there, beware with those all beautiful ladies you know from the social network, especially if you never meet her and her name is Noorazlina Abdul Aziz. Who know you could be her next victim after this, hehehe.

Modified Glucose Tolerance Test (MGTT)

2011-11-22T14:20:00.000+08:00

Modified Glucose Tolerance Test @ MGTT? What is that? Well, to those who don't know, that is a 'must' test to pregnant women since last year. It is necessary in order to know how your body will responds when given a sugar drink. This test used to be only for those who have a high potential of having diabetes or women with diabetes history in the family.

But, with our lifestyle and our eating habit right now, there's a high possibility that even people with no diabetes background also can have it especially for pregnant women who sometime cannot control the way they eat.

Every pregnant women will have this test twice during pregnancy. How do I know? I already had the first test and will have to face it again next week, uhuk-uhuk. But don't worry as this test is not as painful as the Anti Tetanus Injection.

First of all, you will be asked to fasting starting 10.00 p.m the night before your MGTT. Fasting here means you cannot eat and drink for 10 hours starting at 10.00 p.m to 8.00 a.m.

At 8.00 a.m. on the day of your MGTT, the nurse will take your blood. After that, you will have to drink a glass of glucose solution or in Malay, air gula. You will have to wait about two hours before the nurse take your blood sample again. You can eat and drink after that, hehe, but in my case, I have to see the doctor first, to know the result. Fortunately for me, the result is normal.

How about you? got the normal result too? What do you feel drinking the glucose solution? Me? Felt itchy in my throat for almost five minutes and then it fade away, haha.

20 Weeks Pregnant

2011-10-20T09:33:00.000+08:00

When you are 20 weeks pregnant, you can feel a lot of different now. Your morning sickness is completely gone, but for me, I still have the bloating problem, already asked the nurse but she said it must be something that I eat that caused it. What is it, I for sure don't have any idea.

I can feel the foetus movement almost everyday now and it's somehow annoying especially if you want to get some rest or want to take a nap. As far as I concern, the foetus only make a movement when we are not busy. The funny thing is I can see the foetus heartbeat just by looking at my tummy hehe.

My tummy is quite visible now, even my hubby will laugh at it. Some of my good friends keep asking me to take a picture of me with the tummy. They said I must be look pretty with that big tummy, haha. I will certainly try to take a picture later, not only because my friends asked me too, but also for my keep.

I also happen to have a difficulty to sleep. Sometime, I cannot sleep all night long and will only sleep at daylight. Somehow, it disturb my work schedule but fortunately my hubby seem to understand my situation. What's funny is some of the problem that I have, he will also face it, like cannot sit down for too long or sleepy all the time, hehe.

My brother who already have two children, asked me whether I already know the gender of the baby but I don't know why I am not interested to know about it. What's important for me is everything will be okay, never mind the gender, am I right?

The chef in the family

2011-10-14T08:25:00.000+08:00

Do you still remember Atan, my youngest brother? He is 9 years old, now. If you are my regular readers, perhaps you still remember some posts I wrote about him including WW : Who need this, I want muscle too and Wordless Wednesday : Youngest siblings .

Atan, the chef

I've been away from them almost half a year now and it surprised me to know that he now cook his own meal. The first time I heard he cooked is a few months ago. My mom told me that he cook the canned fish (Sardine) mix with sausage. It was delicious said my mom.

When he have his own phone, I always messaging him or called him just to ask if he already eat or not. When he said 'yes' I will automatically asked 'what did he eat and who cook it' as there's nobody at home except him and my grandmother who is very afraid to use the modern cooking method.

Hearing he cooked his own fried mi or fried rice, is like a joke to me, so I asked him how he do it. To my surprise, he could explain very well how he do it and I can't help but wonder why suddenly he is interested in cooking. Maybe he want to be the chef in the family, hehe.

If you have been wondering, well since he was at the kindergarten, we already teach him how to cook simple meal like fried egg, just in case he get hungry and want to eat something. We were so worried to heard that he always eat instant food like maggi, that is of course bad for his growth.

His first attempt in frying the egg was fail because he forgot to put some oil first, and it was funny to heard how he forced our granny to eat that failed fired egg and of course my granny don't want to eat it, hahaha.

I asked him what recipe he want to learn when I get back to Sabah at the end of this year and it surprise me more when he said 'steak', hahahaha. Never thought he will give that as an answer, I only thought that he want to learn simple recipe.

I really want to see how he cook, and you can imagine me asking him to show his cooking skill and me ready with the camera, later, hehe.

Pregnancy mumbling : Emotion

2011-10-06T11:57:00.000+08:00

I like doing this pregnancy mumbling topic because I can write anything without have to refer or doing research. This is just a mumbling, from what I experienced and I see around me, and it's all about pregnancy, hehehe.

Photo : Credit to Google

For today, I would like to mumbling about emotion while pregnant. As we know, pregnant woman tend to be a little emotion while pregnant. From my Facebook alone, I could see that some of my pregnant friend keep complaining their hubby, even for a small thing. When her hubby came back late from work, she's also getting angry.

Some might feel like she cannot be too far away for so long from her hubby, and you will see that most of her status in Facebook is about missing her husband, the funny part is she's even get jealous when her hubby keep adding new friends in Facebook especially women.

My mom used to say that everything that we felt while pregnant will influenced the baby. For example, when you suddenly hate your husband during your pregnancy, your baby also will not have a good relation with the husband, later. It's better to fight the feeling, she said.

Fortunately for me, I don't have to face any bad emotion changing for this time. Instead, I love being pampered by hubby and I adore him. What weird is, I suddenly like to see coins (hubby is a coins and banknotes collector). I can see how well this baby and my hubby will get along later.

19 weeks pregnant

2011-10-04T13:46:00.000+08:00

At 19 weeks pregnant, there's nothing a big different while I am at 18 weeks pregnant, I don't even know whether my tummy became bigger or not because it still look the same to me, hehe. The only thing that matter is my appetite seem to have up and down. Sometime I feel like I want to non-stop eating and some other time I feel like I don't want to eat anything at all.

That is why there's so much food in my refrigerator right now, especially fruits like apple and some local fruits that easily to get. I even stock up some raisins, soy milk, vitagen and chocolates. Nuts is also a must, as well as fried anchovies. Why fried anchovies? well, as far as I concern, this anchovies is a source of Iron, which is important for the blood.

You might think that I always eat all the time, but the truth is, some of the food shown on the above picture are stocked up more than a month and still I am not able to finished it, hehe. The appetite is big but my ability to eat is small.

The best thing is, I don't have to eat heavy food when I feel hungry all the time, just grab some fried anchovies or chocolates. Sometimes I eat what we call 'asam boi' (I don't know how to call it in English, sorry). But I tried my best to avoid it because I remember when I took the 'Molecular Biology and Genetic Engineering' subject while took my degree, my lecture said it is bad for our genetic as it can cause mutation and who am I to question a professor, hehe.

Oh, I almost forgot, some of you might already feel a small movement in your tummy at this weeks of pregnancy, like me. It happened few days ago, a day after a visit to the shop of my hubby's friend. Read Mini perfumes if you don't know what I mean. I was so tired that day, so I sleep almost 12 hours including daylight, so come the night, I cannot sleep at all until 4.00 am. That's where I felt like something pushing my tummy from inside. It happen several times and don't happen again until now. Hubby said probably the baby is angry because I still awake, hehe.

Mini perfumes

2011-10-03T11:23:00.000+08:00

Last week, I accompanied my husband to meet his fellow coins blogger. While they were busy with the coins, banknotes and blog, I sat and surfing the net without nothing in mind. Imagine I had to sit almost 6 hours, huhuhu. But, I felt happy when his friend gave me mini perfumes or in standard name is perfume miniatures along with a bag since his wife is a perfumes salesgirl. Those perfumes are Prada Pour Homme (for men), Incanto Bloom by Salvatore Ferragamo and L'eau D'issey Pour Homme by Issey Miyaki.

The smell is very nice and of course it will help me a lot when I want to buy a new perfumes later. Means I don't have to test so many perfumes as I already have a few sample and I can choose the best smell from it. My hubby's friend even promises to give me another sample for our next visit, hehehe.

To those who don't know how perfume miniatures look are, take a glance at this picture, :D. That's why I called it mini perfumes because they are small @ mini. But the smell is still the same tough, don't worry. This kind of perfumes is suitable to bring along when you are traveling since it is lighter, small, not fragile and you can bring 10 kind of it and it is still lighter than a bottle of perfume.

See how small the perfumes are? The left one is for sure not a new release perfume, it is an AA size battery just for a comparison, hehe. The size maybe almost the same but the battery is heavier than all of three of the mini perfumes.

Vitamin B Complex in pregnancy

2011-09-27T13:37:00.001+08:00

B Complex is one of the vitamin that I have to take once a day, every morning. The other vitamins that I take doesn't cause me any trouble, but this one...I really cannot stand the smell. Even I already ate it, I felt like the smell is still around until almost noon.

This causes me to lost my appetite in the morning, but after that, I will keep getting hungry until midnight. That's scared me, haha. I don't want to gain too much weight, because it will also can affect me and the baby. Back to the B Complex thing, it always be the last one that I take everyday. Sometime, I really want to escape taking it, but thinking about the importance of Vitamin B Complex in pregnancy, I ignore the feeling.

B Complex actually is a combination of all kind of Vitamin B including Thiamin (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Niacin (B3), Pantothenic acid (B5), Pyridoxine (B6), Biotin (B7), Folic acid (B9) and Cobalamin (B12). So, how can I ignore this one? hehehe.

Not taking this vitamin will causes me much health trouble such as anemia, muscle cramps, respiratory infections, birth defects, abdominal pain, diabetes and depression. Aw, I'd rather dealing with the strong unpleasant smell than all these kind of health problem, hehe.

If you don't like medicine, you can also get all of these vitamin from food. For example, you can get B1 from cereals, grains, potatoes, seafood, liver and kidney beans. You can get B2 from enriched bread, green leafy vegetables and dairy products. B3 can be found in chicken, fish, whole grains, nut and lean red meat. B5 in almost all foods, B6 in bananas, potatoes, fish and chicken. You can get B7 from egg yolks, mushrooms, watermelon, liver and peanuts, B9 in peas, nuts, citrus fruits and green leafy vegetables while B12 can be found in milk, eggs and milk.

So, like it or not, I will still take this vitamin and of course with the doctor's advice. If she say that I still have to take it, I will. They know better what's best for us, right?

18 weeks pregnant

2011-09-26T13:19:00.000+08:00

I am 18 weeks pregnant now and there's a big difference I felt especially about my appetite, nausea problem and my tummy. My stamina also seem to be less right now, I cannot walk too much or even sit still for half an hours also made my back in pain.

What is actually happen while at 18 weeks pregnant? Well, if this is your first child, then your tummy is started to show by now. As for me, I can no longer wearing most of my clothes and even if I can, it feels uncomfortable due to the size of my tummy. You will probably have to start wearing pregnancy dress by now.

My appetite also seem to be back to normal, or maybe I can say, a bit too much because I am hungry almost all of the time. This is the time where you have to be careful and watch what you eat. Reduce the intake of sugar, rice and salt. Make sure you eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. The doctor will also ask you to continuously drink any brand of milk (with or without the 'Folic acid').

My nausea problem also seem to be gone and thanks god for that. My weight already back to normal and the last time I checked it, it's 60 kg. Means I have gain 1 kg after losing 2 kg before, you can read more about it in my old post about Hari Raya.

Walking or sitting even for half an hour will make me tired so much and giving so much pain especially to my back. There's a time I tried to ignore it and it hurt so bad that I cannot stand it anymore, forcing me to lie down and crying on my bed, hehe. To be honest, I never thought that getting pregnant also can cause pain, as most people only talked about the pain they get through while giving birth.

The last important thing is you have to change your sleep habit by now. Lie down on your side especially on your left side. This is to ensure the baby get enough oxygen. I love sleeping lie flat on my back but it is not encouraged as it will compress a major vein and of course it will decrease the blood return to my heart.

You might find these different from yours but don't worry, as you will experienced it sooner or later. Just take care of what you eat, don't drink alcohol and smoking, hehe and if your husband is smoking, asked him to stop or don't smoke near you. I am so lucky tough because my hubby don't smoke and drink and so do I.

Milk for pregnant women : EnfaMama A+

2011-09-22T08:56:00.000+08:00

The first milk for pregnant women that I drink was EnfaMama A+, a Mead Johnson's product. I choose the vanila flavour because I really like vanila and to be honest, I am not a fan of milk, hehe so if I want to drink it, its have to be with vanila or chocolate flavour. This milk is for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, so even if you are already had giving birth, you can still take this milk.

Through what I read from the label, this milk provides important nutrients like DHA which can be found in breast milk. It is also formulated with Iron which is important to form red blood cells. Red blood cells is important because its carry oxygen to all parts of our body.

This milk is also enrich with Folic acid. As you know, Folic acid is very important to the baby so that the baby will has a proper growth and development. You can find out more about it on my previous post entitled Folic acid and pregnancy.

The other thing that is important to our pregnancy is Calcium and it is also something that you can get from this milk. Calcium as we know is important to make our bones and teeth stronger. The best part is this milk is 82% lower in fat compare to Full Cream Milk.

EnfaMama A+ is available in two flavours, Vanila and Chocolate. Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to try the chocolate flavour yet, hehe. How about you? What kind of milk that you take and what flavour?

About Facebook

2011-09-13T15:24:00.000+08:00

Today, I am going to talk about one of the most used social network in this world, yes, I will talk about Facebook. As you know, I am one of the user. This kind of network is good because we can connect with everyone we want in this world, as long as they want to connect with us too, hehe.

The friends who waiting to be accepted

I joined Facebook in 2009, and I was really naive about it, especially about the security and privacy things. Due to my excitement to have lot of friends, I just add anyone without checking their profile. My Facebook wall and photos are also available to all eyes including those who wasn't in my friend list. Thanks to one of them (not in my friend list) who keep commenting on my status, it was really open my eyes. From there, I learn how to keep my privacy.

I now have about 3023 in my friend list and it never increase because I don't want to. I remove some inactive friends (who never commented on my status or seldom updating their wall) before I accepting new request. Before, I love to ignore and blocked friend request from other, but now, I just let it untouched. There's more than a hundred who waiting to be accepted now, but really, I don't want my friend list more than 3000.

If you see my Facebook wall, you can only see like this;

I viewed it as Jane Martin @ Sumandak Kinabalu

But, it is actually like this (and only me can see it).

Notice the difference?

Notice that you cannot see any picture in my wall except my profile picture? That is because I keep all my pictures private, including my profile picture. Even my hubby cannot see it, hehehe. My photo album also the same case. It exist and I keep lot of pictures, but only me can see it, and the people who I tagged, of course.

Most of my pictures is setting to 'My eyes' only mode

Even in log in too, I changed the setting. Any new computer which I used to log in, Facebook will send TAC number to my phone (same like Maybank2u) and I have to enter it to be able to log in to my Facebook account.

So, how yours? Do you keep it public or private? Or you don't even care about it? I really think we should care about our information and pictures, because we don't know what other will be able to do with it. We should really be careful especially with social network like this.

Kota Marudu always in my heart

2011-09-12T16:45:00.000+08:00

It's already been almost five months since I left my lovely hometown, Kota Marudu, but feels like years to me, hehe. Living in a big city is not really my style and never dream about it. But, when God want it that way, then it will be. As long as there's someone beside me, I know I can survive here, hehehe (like I live in a desert).

What I love most about Kota Marudu? well of course one of the reason is the price for food and seafood there cheaper than here. No wonder, everytime hubby went back to Sabah, he will always looking for food or seafood (now I know why, hehehe).

There's a time when hubby brought 7 kg crabs in Kota Marudu. The price is cheaper than in his hometown (Kota Kinabalu). It's only RM7 per KG in my place. Very cheap, right? and I could get it cheapest in my former workplace (only RM5 per KG), hahaha.

Fruits and vegetables also cheaper there. Even the salt fish also available in a big varieties. I once bought anchovies here, and it cost me RM17 per half KG, while in my place, RM17 is the price for 1 kg, uhuk uhuk. A vey big different there, and that's why Kota Marudu always in my heart.

Cannot wait to get back to Sabah this coming December, hehe. By then, I know I have to watch what I eat. Hopefully, 'jeruk bambangan' is available at that time, because there's no way I can find it in here, hehe. I know hubby love 'jeruk bambangan' too, but he already stay here more than 10 years, he's been get used to it, unlike me.

Pregnancy mumbling : Low placenta

2011-09-09T16:56:00.000+08:00

Yesterday was my appointment to scan the baby. No, I don't know my baby's gender yet, it is only to determine how is my baby condition I think. To be honest, the moment I saw the baby's head, I feel such a relieve. It's been almost 4 months already and my stomach / tummy / belly still didn't get any bigger than before. Couldn't feel any movement neither.

The only things that make me so sure I am pregnant and there's a baby in me are the fact that I missed my periods and the nausea and vomiting things. So, to see the head and there's a fetus's heart beat there, really make me feel something and I really couldn't explain the feeling.

After get the result, I took a look at the slip that they have given to me. I noticed about the placenta which is low and that is why I mumbling about low placenta. The nurse didn't explain anything to me and I don't have the heart to ask either since almost 10 people are already waiting in the room, beside the clinic is not really my place. Too bad the clinic that I used to go don't have scanner, that's why they sent me to this new clinic.

Late at night, I asked my husband to Google about low placenta. Seeing the word 'low' is scaring me so much I guess, hehe. But, hubby told me there's nothing to worry as it is normal to have a low placenta at the beginning of pregnancy. Normally, it will increase according to your weeks of pregnancy.

Well, you must be wondering why I worried so much about placenta. First of all, you have to know what placenta is. Placenta is an organ that connects the developing fetus to the uterine wall to allow nutrient uptake, waste elimination and gas exchange from your bloodstream.

Never thought about it before but now, I can see how important placenta is to my pregnancy. Couldn't wait for my next appointment, I really have to ask the nurse more about it. To read all the information in the internet about low placenta (also known as placenta previa) is so scary. Better ask the right person, right?

Pregnancy mumbling about medicine

2011-09-06T15:14:00.000+08:00

Well, I have fever right now and it's already been four days since I have it. It's not really a good feeling, to be honest, and you would ask why I didn't go to hospital or clinic to make thing easier. I have this bad habit which is I don't like to go to clinic or hospital. I don't know why and you can count just how many medical certificate (after this M.C) I have taken since I start work.

I think the only time I took M.C was when I get involved in an accident ( took 2 days M.C) , when I went to the dentist and while I had a high fever and I could smell something like rotten egg inside my nose (which according to the doctor, my nose had been infected by virus due to my carelessness to treat my fever, hehehe). The good thing is I still remember the doctor's advice until now which are to not take a bath with cold water, drink enough warm water and take care of what I eat.

Hubby sometime asked me to take an aspirin or in Malaysia, one of the well known medicine is Panadol. But, I really tried to avoid that kind of medicine since I don't know if it has affect to my pregnancy or not. So annoying right? I hate to go to the clinic and hospital and yet I don't want to eat a medicine and I have a reason for that.

I am not gonna tell you why I don't like clinic or hospital, I will share a sad but true story about medicine instead. That is why I called this 'Pregnancy mumbling about medicine'. This happened to my cousin in the month of my big day ( March). She was only waiting and counting her day to deliver her baby that time. At the same time, she had a fever and took a medicine without any advice from doctor.

A day or two after that, she was worried when she cannot felt any movement from her baby, so she went to hospital to check it. The result made her cried out loud, yes, her baby was dead. Since it was her first child, they tried not to do any surgery and made the baby out in a normal way. Don't ask me how they do it, I was busy at that time and we couldn't even visited her until the funeral day.

I still remember when the baby finally out, it was the day before my wedding, come my wedding day, her mom who had just went back from Kota Kinabalu was willing to show her face for a minute and told my mom that they were sorry for not being able to attend my big day, and who could blame them for that?

So, as a reminder to those whom pregnant including me, don't take any medicine without asking for the doctor's opinion or advice. They know better what's good to us and the baby. Some of the medicine is not suitable for the baby and of course could affect the baby.

Wordless Wednesday : Hari Raya

2011-08-31T10:12:00.000+08:00

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri 2011

2011-08-26T11:55:00.001+08:00

Hello everyone, finally the fasting month is almost over and Hari Raya is around the corner. For my Muslim readers, how is your fasting month? is it great? or is it the same as mine? If you don't know what I mean, you can always read my post about pregnancy and ramadhan.

This ramadhan, I only managed to fasting for almost 12 days only. I know I am fasting like a kid but what can I do. I used to do the complementary ibadah which referred to the six days fast in the month of Syawal or would be easy to say it 'Puasa 6' in Malay, hehe.

This year, I don't know if I would be able to do the Puasa 6 again because I have so many fasting days that I missed and have to make out. I also have to add my weight as when I went to the clinic for the first time, my weight is 60.6 kg, and now it's already down to 59 kg (written in red).

For some, it can be a good news but for a pregnant woman, it wasn't!! That's why it's written in red, uhuk uhuk. Thanks but no thanks to my nausea and vomiting problem, now I have to eat as much as I can so I can gain weight again before my next appointment (will talk more about it in my next post).

Well, enough with the mumbling, let's direct to the point then. Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri 2011 to all my Muslim readers, please forgive me if I had said something bad or sensitive issue that can hurt your feeling. To my non - Muslim readers, enjoy your holiday friends, :). Do take care and drive carefully wherever you go.

Pregnancy fashion

2011-08-25T08:42:00.000+08:00

Last week, hubby and I went out to buy for some maternity dresses. I know it's still too early to buy for it because I am only 13 weeks right now, still too small to wear the maternity dress haha, but hubby insisted me to do it, so why not.

To be honest, we have been looking in so many places for the maternity dresses and couldn't find any, when we finally found one, the price is 'oh my God'. It is RM179 per dress and I bought two, huhu. The dresses are fine and is comfortable to wear but is all the maternity dress is expensive like that?

The salesgirl said that the dresses is the latest pregnancy fashion but how should I know if it is true or not as never in my life before I'm buying any of that dress?

Couldn't imagine my mom bought dresses like that..huhuhu, any of you have any idea of where to find some fine yet cheaper maternity dresses? Please, don't tell me that such cheaper maternity dresses are not exist, uhuk uhuk..I think RM179 is too much...

The clinic

2011-08-22T12:09:00.000+08:00

The first time I went to clinic to check my pregnancy, I didn't bring anything, hehe so when I want to register and the nurse asked for our married certificate, we were surprised. Fortunately for us that our house isn't so far from the clinic, so hubby went home to take it.

After the registration, the nurse asked me to fill up our information and asked me when was my last period, so I told her and she start to calculate. Short after, she looked at me and said ' you are only 5 weeks pregnant, still too early to check, do come again later' and she gave me the exact date when to come there again.

Hubby and I laughed out loud after leaving the clinic, even the nurse said ' it's normal to get excited as this is your first child'. In fact, my hubby had asked her cousin who worked as a nurse in a hospital and she told us to go to the clinic as soon as possible because if we don't, the nurse will get angry.

Come the date that the nurse said, we went to the clinic again as early as 7.30 a.m, hahaha and the clinic still not opened that time. We have to wait inside our car for almost half an hour before the door was opened. The first thing I have to do is answering a set of questions about my self and my family history and defining my weigh, then the nurse asked me to pee and go to the next room where the other nurse took my blood to check for HIV, type of blood and the concentration of my blood. (Will explain more about it later).

After that, I went to the next room where the other nurse checked my breast (checking for the sign of cancer), and she explained about the good of breastfeeding to our baby. She also taught me what kind of food that is good for blood and a little about folic acid. Then, she asked me to take the vitamin in the pharmacy counter and that's all, hehe.

Pregnancy gift

2011-08-16T08:31:00.000+08:00

You know that I love pink colour right? but, that is not the reason I choose Mariah Carey's Luscious Pink as my pregnancy gift. In fact, I don't know why I choose that perfume, (as I am sure, most of you know that Elizabeth Arden offered lots of perfumes) maybe because of the combination of the bottle and the colour (I like butterfly). But, I love the smell, nice and soft, hehehe.

At first, buying a perfume for me is not in the list. It's hubby who need one, but than I got jealous and want one for myself too, hehe, and when the salesgirl asked whether it's a gift or not, that's when hubby said to me 'consider it as a pregnancy gift'.

I have to wait almost half an hour in the counter for the perfume to be pack neat and nicely, hahaha. Hubby said ' why you don't tell her no need to pack it like that?' and I said 'that is a gift so it has to be packed nicely and pretty' hahaha. I think the price is around RM290, forgot already, hihihi. Oh, and they give me a silver bag and a lip gloss too for free.

Want to know some about this perfume called Mariah Carey's Luscious Pink? well, that perfume is define as ethereal, magical and feminine.

1. Top notes - Sparkling

A sheer, flirty blend of Silican Bergamot and Ocean Breeze Accord is melded with breezy floral notes and accented with a hint of Bellini Accord.

2. Mid notes - Feminine

Inviting and alluring, the soft essence of Pink Peony is captured in the delicate heart of the fragrance. Wrapped in its beauty, dewy Tiare Petals and Lily of the valley.

3. Base notes - Sensual

A rich blend of bright blond woods and creamy sandalwood create a unique combination of Sun-Kissed Woods. Wrapped in sultry White Musk, the base reveals sensual warmth and long lasting depth.

Anywhere, this pregnancy gift is unplanned, but I still want to thanks my hubby for the gift. This pregnancy is actually a gift for his birthday, as he once told me 'no need to buy me anything for my birthday, a baby is more than enough'.

I keep seeing things

2011-08-13T11:43:00.000+08:00

I don't know why but last night, I think I keep seeing things and it's scared me very much. Right before I want to sleep, I keep seeing something that look like a black thing or a shadow in the corner of my eyes.

Just imagine how I felt that time...and my hands keep touching my stomach or should I called it 'baby'?, with a hope that nothing bad will happen.

In the morning, around 5.00 am, I was surprised to see there's something in the door that almost look like in the picture under (or should we call it portiere?) but it was more like a plant or something and of course was also in black.

Picture: credit to Google

I almost think that it was real and a bit excited, because it look so beautiful as the thing was not only in the door but almost surrounding the whole room, but then I was terrified when I remember that there wasn't any sign of it before I went to sleep.

Its scared me but in the same time, I was confuse, how on earth I could see such nonsense thing in this Holy month of Ramadan? Or was it only a dream? But, I am pretty sure I was awake at that time, huhuhuh.

Transgender and transsexual

2011-08-11T09:06:00.000+08:00

Been read so many comments and story in the news about the transgender and transsexual and I know I don't have the right to make any comment on these matter as I am not an expert in religion, in fact I don't even know how to read in Jawi or Arab. I also don't have any siblings or relatives who facing this problem, but I do have some friends who facing with this problem. You can read my old post about them in my post entitled : Thank you to my best friend.

Let's start by the meaning of that two words. Transgender means appearing as, wishing to be considered as or having undergone surgery to become a member of the opposite sex while transsexual means one who wishes to be considered by society as a member of the opposite sex or one who has undergone a sex change.

Well, in my best friends case, they only appear as a woman in certain things like the way that they walk, talk or eating while in clothing, they still look like a man. You might think that they are 'lelaki lembut' and still able to marry a woman, but no. They don't have any heart or feeling towards woman and that is why I feel safe with them.

I still remember when Hamid @ Hamidah told me '' I know something inside me want to get out, but not getting married while I have the ability to is a big sin already, I don't want to add it with any stupid action like undergoing a sex change or take a hormone pill like my other friends. I don't want to lie to myself by getting married to stop the bad talking from the old folks while in fact, I don't have any feeling towards woman. I am willing to live like this until the end of my life but getting my sex change is a big no as I don't want my body and soul rejected (tidak diterima bumi) when I died.''

He also once told me ''no matter how beautiful we are and no matter how ugly women are but nobody can change the fact that we still cannot get pregnant. That is why I never feel jealous when the boy that I like has girlfriend. But I do feel jealous when the boy choose another transgender like me''.

Just sharing what my friend said. I'm glad though that he still hold his religion tightly and not following his emotion only. May God bless his life, :D

Pregnancy and ramadan

2011-08-09T10:25:00.000+08:00

Ramadhan this year is for sure is not the best one in my life. There's a big difference between Ramadhan last year and now and you will know what I mean if you are pregnant in an early stage during Ramadhan with all the nausea and vomiting problem.

Vomiting is something that I really cannot stand. Every time I vomit, feels like all of my energy has been taken away and of course I cannot fasting when vomiting become my good friend (and I'd been dreaming that I could fasting 30 days without fail, huhuhu).

There isn't any wrong with pregnancy and Ramadhan and you can still fasting even if you are pregnant. But for under 12 weeks or below 35 weeks, you have to asked your doctor if you are strong enough to fasting. The nurse said, I am fine and can fasting if not because of the vomiting problem (sad again).

I hate vomiting but having read that vomiting is one of the sign that shows our pregnancy is strong and not in the risk of miscarriage, is somehow make me relieve. I don't know if it is true or not tough, hehehe. What do you think about it? Care to share some of your fasting experience while pregnant?

Last but not least, Happy Ramadhan everyone, hopefully this Ramadhan will bring joy to all of you.

Mom the gamer

2011-07-23T12:54:00.000+08:00

Yeah, my mom the gamer! Hihihih, it's maybe hard to believe but my parents love to play games. It is only a simple pc game but seeing them playing it somehow make me smile. My dad also love to play pc game but he don't play the game like my mom do. My dad more to snooker game while my mom is more to the fun game like what shown on the picture below. I forgot the name of the game but it's something about turtle I guess.

They only play games on pc and don't dare to touch our laptops. This old pc is actually bought 10 years ago, while I was in UMS. Come my sisters turn, they didn't want this pc, they want their own lappy instead, hehehe, so this pc is only been keep in the house for almost 7 years. Nobody want to use it.

One day, my youngest brother, Atan connected all the pc wires himself, and he was only 8 that time. I guess he learned it from his computer lesson. So, I installed some games there, games that simple and isn't hard to play.

The pc is placed in my parents room, even if I didn't installed any games there, I know they will asked for it later. The game as shown on picture above is my mom favourite. This is the only game that she played as it was easy and colourful.

My dad is addicted to the snooker games and there was a time when I called him for dinner and his answer was 'Wait until I can get a new record', haha.

I enjoyed teaching them how to play game or how to type a message on their mobile because they are not afraid to learn something new. Tell you one more secret, they only know how to turn on and off the computer, while the typing work, they gave it all to their children, hehe.

Folic acid and pregnancy

2011-07-22T08:51:00.000+08:00

When I made the post being pregnant, a blogger named Lieya Latif commented about taking lots of folic acid and milk. Thus make me wonder what is the benefit of folic acid to pregnant woman and where can I get it?

Folic acid according to the book that I read, also called folate is a B vitamin (B9) which can be found mostly in leafy green vegetables like kale and spinach, orange juice and enriched grains.

Surfing the web about folic acid is somewhat interesting for me. Turn out that this acid is not only recommended for pregnant woman but also to those who want to get pregnant. This vitamin is needed to make a new cells in our body. Pregnant woman need lots of this vitamin to make sure that the baby is developing well.

Now you know a little about this vitamin, but where can you get this? Especially if you are not really into leafy green vegetables like me, hehehe. Well, you can always buy folic acid tablets from pharmacies. As for me, I get it from the milk that I drink twice a day and also from my multivitamin.

As soon as we know that I am pregnant, hubby bought me the Enfamama A+ milk and Anmum Materna. I am not a fan of milk, so you can imagine how hard for me to drink the milk, but I accidently saw the words 'Acid folic' on the milk can on one sweet evening and that is where I take the milk seriously now, not skipping it anymore, hehehe. Will talk about it in my next post. See you later, :).

It is amazing to see the development of your baby, isn't it? Being pregnant is really such a sweet feeling. Even the morning sickness, losing your appetite and all of the early pregnancy signs are not a great feeling but you will appreciate it if you really know what is the connection of that morning sickness and miscarriage. Don't worry, I will explain about it later in my next post.

Early pregnancy signs

2011-07-19T08:29:00.000+08:00

Early pregnancy signs are something that you have to learn if you are expecting one. Fortunately for me, there's a lot of books about pregnancy I can refer to in my house. Even before I get pregnant, I already read all the books about getting pregnant, hahaha.

Early pregnancy signs; according to the book I'd read (refer to the picture below):

1. Tender breasts

Breasts are often the first body part that noticeable. Newly pregnant breasts can be tender, full, achy, swollen, tingly, sensitive and even painful to touch (I experienced most of it). Sometimes these signs show up within a few days of conception, sometimes they hold off until weeks later (in my case, these sign is still on).

2. Implantation spotting

A significant minority of newly expectant mums (around 20%) notice scant spotting when an embryo burrows its way into the uterine wall. Such so-called implantation bleeding will likely arrive earlier than your expected monthly flow - usually around five to 10 days after conception. Its much lighter than your period, spotty and not continuous bleeding. (I didn't experience any).

3. Urinary frequency

The need to pee with annoying frequency can appear on the pregnancy scene fairly early, usually about two to three weeks after conception. That's because pregnant kidneys must work overtime to filter waste from the blood once there's an extra waste producer on board. (I agree with this one, it's really annoying when even at midnight I have to pee).

4. Fatigue

Early pregnancy is typically exhausting, leaving you feeling sluggish, sleepy and sofa-loving. That's because your body is beginning to crank up its baby-making machine (particularly the placenta manufacturing) and that takes a lot of energy you have on hand.

5. Nausea

This is the symptom that can sign on early, in some cases, just days after conception, though it's more likely to show up four weeks later. Though pregnancy hormones are responsible for so-called morning sickness, not every mum to be gets the queasies, and far from all experience vomiting, since hormones affect every woman differently.

6. Smell sensitivity

Does your nose know something you don't know? Some newly pregnant women report a heightened sense of smell early on, and that could be owing to the increasing amount of oestrogen in your system during early pregnancy. If your sniffer's suddenly more sensitive (and easily offended), pregnancy might be in the air.

7. Missed period

If your two week wait doesn't end with a period (like mine), especially if your periods generally run like clockwork, it may be time to celebrate. Break out the pregnancy test and hopefully the sparkling apple juice.

When I experienced all of the signs except sign number 2, I knew that I am pregnant. Right now, I cannot stand the smell of chips, soy sauce and noodle. I also will get angry easily when I heard loud sound, so fussy, isn't it? hehehe.

Last week, I don't have any problem with eating, but this week, I don't know what to eat and cook, I really lose my appetite. Milk is a must now in the house, even I don't like milk, but I have to drink it for the sake of the baby and I, I guess, hehehe.

Wordless Wednesday : Monkey

Being pregnant

2011-07-12T13:59:00.000+08:00

I am not sure what other women feel when being pregnant for the first time, but for me, two weeks before my period, I noticed some changed in my body, especially the breasts, its feel achy, tender and full but very sensitive and painful to touch and getting bigger and it's not surprising me when hubby love to see it, hahaha.

I also easily fall asleep almost all of the time. I feel tired and not comfortable with my body. Toilet become the most visited room after the bedroom, hihihih. After I missed my period, the pregnancy test is a must of course, and when it show the double line, hubby brought me to the nearest clinic to check (once again, to make it sure). Again the result is positive.

Hubby asked me why I didn't vomit like what we always see on movie or drama, but I guess I am lucky enough to not experienced it. I do facing the nausea problem until now and sometimes I loose my appetite. I do feel sorry for hubby for not being able to eat spicy food because of the doctor advice not to eat spicy food to me. So, there is no spicy food in the house right now.

I also cannot eat durian and cold drink is a big no too. The doctor gave me a vitamin (written on the cover is 'untuk kembangkan anak' (or in English, perhaps I could translate it like this 'to make the baby bigger'?) so that the baby will easily be seen when it's been scan.

So, how about yours? Care to share your experiences here? Next post I will share about the early signs of pregnancy.

The advantages of blogging in English

2011-07-05T10:34:00.000+08:00

Well, hopefully I am not creating any controversy with this post. I know some people don't like me for blogging in English. But, how else can I improve my language? I cannot see the other easier and cheaper way to improve it.

As you can see here, there are so much mistakes in my writing especially my grammar. But, just by reading english papers or books are not enough for me. I have to make some exercise too, but I am too old to be in school anymore, so blogging is another choice to do it. Aw, I am sure most of you ever heard the saying 'practice makes perfect' right?

After more than a year in this blogging world, I can see some of the advantages of blogging in English and Malay. By blogging in english, my visitors are not only from Malaysia, but also from United States, Philippines, United Kingdom, and many more. Some of them even leave their comments in my blog.

At first, I was so afraid to comment to their blog again because their language is better than mine, but now, I just ignored that feeling and getting used to it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that blogging in Malay cannot attract visitors from other country, I also have three blogs in Malay.

If the contents of your blogs are good, I am pretty sure people will find a way in trying to understand it, and the last choice is by translating it using google translate.

My hubby also doing his personal blog in english and his adsense is doing so well. Since the paid is in dollar, so I think blogging in english is an advantage for those who have adsense. But, blogging in this foreign language also have its own disadvantage which is Malay bloggers are afraid to come and give their comments. It is mostly because they are afraid that I do not understand Malay or they don't understand of what am I talking about.

Auw... we are Malaysian, so don't worry, I know how to speak Malay and I speak Sabahan even more better, :D. I enjoy reading some of my regular commentator like Zik and akubiomed. They used to give their comments in Malay, but now, they tried their best to comment in English, hehehe.

Google Pagerank Update June 2011

2011-06-28T13:03:00.000+08:00

I am pretty sure most of you already checked your latest PR, right? Some have up and some have down but whatever it is, do keep blogging, never give up, :D. This Google pagerank update June 2011 thing give such a huge impact for me as three of my personal blog get PR.

Last evening, hubby called me and said SBC get PR2. He got so excited that i got punched on the nose, ouch! Than he said 'let's check yours' and I become nervous all of the sudden and said very humble to him ' so impossible for that blog to have a PR' but then there it was, PR2, hehe.

After checking some PR for our friends blog, we checked the blog about tokek, not bad of getting PR1 as I never do any blogwalking for that blog. Hubby checked his personal blog, it's still PR3, so I let my hubby finishing his work while I messaging Jane @ Sumandak Kinabalu to tell her that her blog also get PR2.

An hour later, hubby come to me and said 'do you want to know another good news?' Well, of course I do, so he said 'come here if you want to know' (hubby doing his work in another room). Turned out that my brand new blog 'Baju Kurung Budak' also get PR2. It was so unbelievable as that blog is so new, not even reaching 2 months.

Anyway, congratulation to everyone who get PR for this updates. I know most of the regular commentators here have managed to get PR, :D. Once again, a big congratulation to all of you.

I want Bugatti Veyron

2011-06-26T23:09:00.000+08:00

Last Wednesday we was on our way to Malacca since my hubby had some work there. It was a boring journey since that wasn't the first time we went there. The hot weather also made me sleepy. Hmmm, you must be wondering now what is the connection with this post and Bugatti Veyron right?

Well, right before reaching Malacca, there was a siren and followed by some policemen with their bike asking the other cars including us to give a way. While we were busy wondering to whom they were escorting, there was a luxurious car in white and light blue colours passed through us.

Then my hubby was like 'that was the Sultan Johor's car! So sad we didn't take picture of it'. Then I was like 'What is the big deal about it?' hahahaha but I only answered it on my mind though. Hubby kept mumbling about had not taken picture and I just ignored it. In fact I know nothing about that car. That is why I don't know why it is such a big loss for not taking picture of it. Poor of me, so naive about car, hehe.

Friday, we was on our way home, when suddenly we heard the siren again. This time hubby asked me to get ready to take picture and said 'take the picture if I said so'. So I just grabbed my phone and get ready, hehe. Here is the picture! Sorry if this picture is not in a good angle, that was the only angle I have, hehe.

Hubby asked me to make a post about it, so while searching info for that car, I feel so lucky for having the chance to see that luxurious and the most expensive car in the world as well as the fastest one with my own eyes. Hubby! I want Bugatti Veyron!!! :D

Some details about Bugatti Veyron that you need to know:

1. The Veyron is powered by a compact 8.0-litre, 16-cylinder, W formation (basically two 4.0-litre V8s sharing a common crank), engine developing an astonishing 1001PS and 1250Nm of torque.

2. The 16.4 refers to the 16 cylinders and 4 turbos that the Veyron’s mighty engine boasts. Combined consumption is expected to be around 18mpg - but few will ever match that.

3. That powerplant is expected to enable the Veyron 16.4 to breach 400kph - or around 250mph - 10 mph more than the official record set by the Koenigsegg CCR at the Nardo track in Italy recently.

4. All that power is distributed through a four-wheel-drive transmission featuring a sequential paddle-shift, seven-speed, double clutch, DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox) that pre-selects the next gear allowing for instantaneous shifting. A similar gearbox can be seen on the new Golf GTI and other cars in the Volkswagen group, that today owns Bugatti, Lamborghini and Bentley, as well as more down-to-earth marques like Skoda and Seat.

5. Braking is taken care of by carbon disc brakes and supplemented by the rear wing that doubles as an airbrake at speeds above 200kph. In addition the Veyron 16.4 has a separate calliper for its handbrake which features ABS – it can be used to stop the car safely in the event of a main brake failure.

6. Bugatti claims that the Veyron 16.4 can stop from 250mph to standstill in ‘considerably less than 10 seconds’.

7. The first cars are expected to be delivered to customers in the second half of 2005 - somewhat later than its anticipated 2003 debut.

8. Performance figures have yet to be verified, but the Veyron 16.4 is expected to reach 62mph (100kph) in three seconds, and 186mph (300kph) in less than fourteen. The Ford GT, which is one of the fastest accelerating current road cars, does 0-60 in around 3.6 seconds.

9. Michelin has had to produce unique tyres to handle the Veyron 16.4’s unique performance. They feature the PAX run-flat system and can driven on flat for around 125 miles at up to 50mph. The rear tyres at 14.4-inches (540mm) in width are the widest fitted to a production car.

10. With only 300 planned for production and priced around $1,000,000 the Bugatti is an expensive and exclusive toy. Despite that huge list price the Veyron 16.4 is never likely to recoup its massive development costs.

Blog as a personal diary

2011-06-23T12:10:00.001+08:00

I've always wondering when reading some blog that tell about their personal story. I didn't mind when they told about moving out, about their experience on getting pregnant or how they put their make up. That are something that I think are worth to share because we can get some information from it. But I do mind when they make their blog as a personal diary and told all of the details of their lives including their romance life, the bad side of their family and complaining about their life problem in their blog.

Come on people, just how stupid you are to realize that the whole world can read your blog? I think that kind of story is a big NO in a blog. If you want to make your blog as a diary, restrict your blog. How come you let your diary been read by the whole world? If you don't know how to restrict your blog, just go to your blogger dashboard settings. Click the word 'permissions' and when you find the setting for the blog reader, change it to 'only people I choose' or ''only blog authors', unless you are hungry for a cheap publicity.

Family is the most important one in our life and we have no right to talk bad about them even if it is true. It's our role to hide their bad side from the others. Revealing their bad manner is the same as revealing your stupidity and immature attitude.

What about sharing your feeling when you have been dumped by your loved one? is it acceptable for you? Some love to do that. Even put the details about their feeling on the blog. I really don't know what kind of people who do that but for sure, they are the kind who love to get sympathy from the whole world and are hunger for a cheap attention.

Some love to share their life problems and keep complaining and moaning about it. Worse, they keep blaming other for their problem without the intention of looking and analyzing their self. What is the point to keep on blaming other on your blog? Does it mean that you are so perfect and never do any mistake?

Auww, I think I'm going too far already, sorry for the harsh word but I hate people who make their blog as a diary and put it as a 'U' rated. For me, these kind of people is so cheap and annoying. A diary is a diary and it's never meant to be read by others.

Peace!!!

The Tokek and I

2011-06-15T09:49:00.001+08:00

For almost a year I'm not interested to look at my popular posts or the keywords. It's because I already know what the keywords are and the five popular posts every months will always be about the tokek thing. Can you imagine how my feeling is?

I feel like this blog had change to a tokek blog. That's why I decided to make a tokek blog, which is Tokek Sabah. But, I felt sad when I've been condemned for what I've done. I don't know what their problem with me but to make thing easier, I choose to remain silence.

Well, I don't know what the connection between that story to this post, haha. Anyway, this month that popular posts had changed. Usually, only the fifth popular post succeed to be replace, but this time, two different post, not relating to tokek has managed to become popular posts.

You might think it was nothing but it's mean a lot to me. I hope this blog can run from the tokek image, uhuk uhuk. It's not an impossible mission, but it's all depend on you, the reader. So please, read more about my normal post, not about the tokek post, hehehehe.

The New Blog

2011-06-06T13:25:00.002+08:00

How are you my dear friends? Feeling good? busy? Well, I am busy too actually hehehe yeah, busy with my new work @ blog. This new blog is a travel blog, a new project of mine after the SBC (shared with hubby and Sumandak Kinabalu ) and Tokek Sabah.

The new blog named Malaysia Travel Blog still need a lots of work to be done to fix it. This blog will talk anything that related to my Malaysia travel & tourism destination. I also will be sharing some eating places. I already made some entry on that blog so feel free to visit it and give your comment or opinion about it.

The New Blog

I just love to travel, foods and taking pictures, so why not sharing it with other, right? Our country have so many interesting places and delicious food. We should be proud with it, (^.^)v.

This new blog is in fact a birthday gift from hubby, so I have to manage it at my best as a token of appreciation to him. I'm still in a learning process in that wordpress thing tough, huhuhu. Kind a bit hard for me at first but I know I could get used to it later.

Princess Zezebel Lair is actually a test for me in finding my own niche. It was supposed to tell you about my lifestyle and culture in Kota Marudu, but now it seem more like a personal blog, hehehe. Even tough my other blogs are with a niche but I really cannot leave this blog just like that as I know some of you still crawling on my blog even there isn't any new post from me. Thank you for that, (^.^).

Happy Engagement Day

2011-06-01T15:27:00.003+08:00

Today is 1st June, yeah, everybody know that. Do you still remember my old post about my sister entitled Can you find me a lover? Well, guess what everyone, she already get engaged with her boyfriend, Fadzel on the 30th May. I was so excited to make this entry and hoping that my siblings will upload the pictures of the event as soon as possible but turn out that I had to wait for a few days for it (sigh). I wasn't there to celebrate but doesn't mean I do not care, right?

The couple and my aunt

A week before the event, my mother called and asked about my opinion. Thinking that both the parents have met before so I suggested to make that event in a 'kampung' way, not in a formal way like mine hehe. I actually never saw a real 'kampung' style engagement. When I said it to mom, I imagined they sit and eat together on the floor, seem very unique and very friendly atmosphere to me.

I was happy to see that some of my idea had been used by my mom. The ceremony went well even tough there's a funny story behind it. But, I really cannot share it here for the sake of both families. Anyway, I was glad to hear that all my cousin who cannot come on my big day, were all there.

Fadzel's families

Final decision

Berian (to be given to my sister) : RM1000
Belanja hangus (Total of money to be used for the wedding day) : RM8000 and a cow
Sogit : A goat

As both are Dusun, so the ceremony also held in a very Dusun way. In a traditional Dusun engagement ceremony, the head of village and the appointee are the most important people . Both parties of the families will be represented by the head of village. At this time the girl proposed to be the fiancée must be in the bedroom or in an other place not to be seen by the male's family. The man's will not be allowed in the girl's living room before the ceremony ends.

The most important in this engagement are berian/mas kahwin, belanja dapur (wang hangus or kitchen expenses), hantaran tunang or dowry, sogit and the duration of engagement. Berian or or dowry is obligatory as the symbol of the value of the girl's personality and based on the tradition worth RM1,000. The period to perform a marriage ceremony is actually up to both of the family to determine, but usually it takes one year.

Sound very complicated to me, mine is very simple one, hehehe (^.^)v. Anyway, Happy Engagement Day to my sister, Beth @ Farah and her fiancé, Fadzel. May Allah bless you too. I am so sorry I cannot come home, but I will surely be there for your big day, (^.^).

SMK Telaga Pitas

2011-05-25T10:13:00.001+08:00

I never told you about my workplace before, but since I already moved to other place, I decided to make a special post about it. SMK Telaga Pitas, that was the name of my working place, which is take almost two hours to reach from Kota Marudu, and four hours from Kota Kinabalu, is really a very big and beautiful school. The student is not even reaching 400. The are only 44 staff including the big boss. Despite being the biggest and beautiful school in Pitas District, the staff and student are living without clean water and electricity. At least we have a genset and our own smelly water..huhu.

Our own smelly water

I still remember two years ago,come the rainy season, we cannot go to our workplace by car. We have to go there by boat, and to walk on a muddy road bare foot. Than, we become more clever and bought a rubber boot, hehe. The road now is much better as we still can access it by car even on a rainy season.

Stuck in the muddy road.

Our green lorry lost control, went direct to the ditch.

Lots of staff want to be in our workplace because of the rural allowance. Our workplace is categorized as rural two which make us qualify to get RM1,000.00 as a rural allowance. But, once you get there, its harder for you to get out. Female staff is very just 1/3 of the staff, other women are not brave enough to work there, hehe. Guess they do not like adventure, (^.^).

Even in that condition, we still success in handling sports at district level. The only problem is, the staff from the other school are not willing to stay longer in our school because of the electricity and water problem, and also, its hard to get a phone line there, hehe. Tell you a secret, the better place to get a line there is by putting your phone by the window.

Come the fasting month, even my workplace is far away from Pitas Town, (you need at least an hours to get there) but we still have our own bazaar. Some of the staff will sell food in front of their house and mind you, theirs taste better than the one that I bought from the other bazaar, hehe. Ahh, I know, no matter how tasty is is, you can never go there to buy it, hehe.

Some bitter sweet memories while I was there are :

1. There was a time when all the staff there including me, have to eat eggs for a week because we ran out of food supplies. The road cannot be used and the strong waves wouldn't allowed us to go anywhere.

2. Being one of the unmarried staff made me one of the most getting harassment from my male colleagues. But I never consider them as a serious matter unless they touch me or saying something that makes me uncomfortable being around them or to be left alone with them.

3. There's a staff who also happen to have an epilepsy seizure had a crush on me, that was scary, haha. I was getting mad every time they mentioned his name in front of me. I guess seeing me getting angry was an enjoyable moment for some of my male colleagues (I just knew this, as one of the staff say that he like to make me angry because even if I get angry, I still be able to laugh). But its all stop when I got engaged, hehe.

4. A month before I left my workplace, we were living in the dark. There was a problem with our genset, and we were in darkness not just for a day, but for a month. I don't know if the situation is already back to normal now, but what I do know is when the genset cannot operate, so does our water pump, so there are no water supply too. Imagine how hard it is to do your business in the toilet when you have to fill up your bucket first, haha.

5. We drink mineral water, never have the heart to drink our own smelly water, hehe. Every time we went to Kota Marudu, we will buy at least two box of mineral water.

6. The small amount of staff make us closer to each other. I, myself have build a new friendship there. I befriend with everybody, even with the cleaners. They were so nice to me, I remember, there's a time when I asked one of the cleaner to cook for me, haha. The next day, they really brought food to the office, even our boss was surprised when he found out about it, haha. In a big event, we definitely will make sure that it will success, no matter how hard it is. Some staff were naughty, some are lazy but that kind of staff is exist everywhere, right?

There's a lot of things that I want to share about SMK Telaga, but I think what I am sharing now is more than enough. I have seen many people complained about their workplace, about their problem, but that's the way it is. Every problem is a challenge, without it, our life will be boring. Just enjoy it and you will not feel is as a burden on the shoulder.

Some people said what we faced in SMK Telaga is worth the rural allowance. Come to Telaga, and stay for a month. You will know that even the allowance have been up to RM1,500.00, is still not enough and well, did I mention that your brand new car will sound like an old car while in Telaga?

To some of my colleagues who I know will read this, especially Marcus Khoo, I know all of you will gonna miss me so much, haha. Trust me, I do miss some of you too (not all of them deserve being miss by me, hehe). When you see food, I am sure most of you will remember me ... (^.^). Wish me luck for my new life everyone.

The Farewell Party

2011-05-23T08:11:00.000+08:00

"Cause I'm leaving on the jet plane

Don't know when I'll be back again

Oh babe, I hate to go"

A day before I left my workplace, my friend, Kak Lina cooked for my farewell party. I never asked for it, and once I know it, I want to pay her half of the price but she didn't want to accept it. It was just a simple party but the 'doa selamat' means a lot to me. Thanks Kak Lina for everything you've done to me.

Our big boss cannot come on that day, she was in Kudat, to support our student who qualified for the sports at district level. Only our second boss was there and he looked so shocked knowing that I will leaving them. Ahh, boss, no one will help you doing the e-Hadir and e-tadbir anymore, hehe. But I will surely miss your tokek, haha.

Okay, back to the party, well, you can see on the pictures that food was simple but, because of Kak Lina (one of the greatest cooker that I ever know) who cooked it, it taste delicious and not only me saying that, the other colleagues also saying the same thing.

The last day I was there, Ajamain, the chairman of the Staff's Club made another farewell party for me, there was no picture of it, because he just asked us to eat anything that we like in the school's cafe, hehe. Seem like I ended my day there with fully loaded stomach.

I am gonna miss them a lot. After three years I've been there, I know most of them very well, some have become my best friends, but I love my hubby more. So, wherever he is, I'm going to follow. Starting a new life in a new place is hard but living without my loved one is even harder.

JPJ Test

2011-05-19T17:22:00.000+08:00

Hello everyone, (^.^). Finally I got my driving license, I only got 18 marks for my JPJ's test, but it's more than enough, hehe. To pass the test, you have to get at least 16/20. To anyone who don't have any idea of what I am talking about, check these posts Malaysia Driving Lesson Process and Bad driving habit of Sabahan . I actually have been scheduled to finish this test on March but I was super busy for the preparation of my wedding, so I postpone it. Beside, it was harder for me to come there every Friday at 2.00 p.m from my workplace.

So, two weeks after get married, I renew my schedule, luckily for me, because I have a friend there. So the reschedule became easier. At first, my test would me on May, but then, she manage to get enough hours for me to have the test on 24th April. I have 10 hours left, hehe.

I only took six hours before I postpone it and that six hours means nothing to me for I took it once a week. So to those who want to take a driving lesson, learn from me, don't take it once a week especially if you have never driving before. Its better if you take the lesson everyday.

The test started at 8.00 a.m and I am number 3, hahaha. Imagine how nervous I am. Hubby told me I cannot moved to his place if I didn't get my license, uhuk uhuk. I really want to take some pictures but failed, due to my nervousness hehe. I am not worry about driving on the road, I am more worried about the test inside the driving school. It is because, even if you fail to get it right even for one step, that's mean you're fail.

Anyway, I am glad I finally pass it, but to drive in Kuala Lumpur? ermm, even in Port Klang, make me scare enough, (^.^)

The Wedding Story, again?

2011-05-03T21:11:00.000+08:00

No, I am not getting married for the second time. I just want to share about my best friend's wedding, hehe. Her wedding day was on 17th April 2011, but due to my busyness, I can only make this post after sometime, hehe.

Just call her Rynnie, she is one of my best friend since high school. She also came to my big day, so no matter how busy I am, I still and must go to her big day, even for a while. The interesting things are we were sharing the same photographer and band boy (my uncle's band). The truth is she was interested to hired the photographer after seeing my wedding pictures.(To those who add me on facebook and cannot see my wedding picture, please inbox me if you want to see it, because I made it private (only certain people can see it).

They also have to dance their traditional dancing called Sumazau, but I envy them for being able to wear the dusun traditional costume. That costume is way too sexy for me, hehehe.

By now, she already moved to German with her husband. Hopefully she will live happily ever after after all that she had been through. I know she will miss her family very much but that is the price that we have to pay to buy our own happiness I guess.

Right now, I am waiting patiently for an invitation from my other best friend (you know who you are, hehe). Please tell me earlier because I'm not in Sabah anymore...huhu.

Sleeping Beauty Mode

2011-04-20T19:41:00.000+08:00

Hi everyone! I am back...uhuk uhuk...Thank you for all the wishes everyone, I am very happy to read all of your comments, but do forgive me for my silence. I am pretty sure that some of you have been wondering why I didn't update my blog.

No.. I am not busy at all and I am still in Kota Marudu, Sabah while my husband is somewhere in Peninsular, hehe. Look at my post title, yup, I am in a lazy mode, I keep on fall asleep night and day, haha. I am telling the truth okay?...

Me wearing the Dusun Lotud costume

I searched on the internet about my problem and that's where I found out about Narcolepsy. It's a disorder that causes people to have a difficulty to stay awake during the day. It's become more interesting when one of the possible causes of narcolepsy is hormonal change, hohoho.

I got the same response from hubby and my best friend, Jane a.k.a Sumandak Kinabalu which is to have a pregnancy test..yai..it's only been a month and 6 days, how come that fast? hahaha but do not worry, I will have the test tomorrow morning after my driving lesson.

Got so many things to share but please forgive my eyes for fully controlling myself, uhuk uhuk.Til then, take care everyone, (^.^).

The Wedding Story ~ Last Part

2011-04-04T08:16:00.004+08:00

This is the last part of my wedding story, hehe. Hope you won't get bored reading it. This post will tell you what happen on my big day (13th March 2011, Sunday).

Even the level of the water in our area back to normal, but the area which the imam lives was still in flood. It was almost 8.00 a.m, so I called hubby and asked them to not come so early (they were supposed to arrived at 10). My mom who went out as early as 4.00a.m to take the meat that she had ordered back with an empty hand. There wasn't any meat on the menu because of the flood last night. Only six kind of food? Oh well, I guess it more than enough..uhuk uhuk.

The funny thing is, one of my aunt came early in the morning just to make sure whether the wedding ceremony will be continue as had been planned or not, haha.

The Akad Nikah (Marriage Contract) ceremony went well. Akad Nikah is a ceremony where the groom sign the marriage contract and agrees to provide the bride with a 'mas khawin'. It is a symbol to show that the men is willing and are prepared to build a family with the lady he chose to get married to. The contract signing is done before a religious official.

After the 'Bersanding Ceremony' (where the bride and bridegroom sitting together on the bridal couch also known as pelamin) we attend a celebratory feast called the 'Makan Beradab' (formal meal). The scary moment was where we were asked to dance 'Pinakang Dance' a traditional Dusun Kimaragang dance. Uhuk-uhuk, I really don't know that dance.

After that dance, the cake cutting ceremony took place followed by singing session by certain lucky people (special request from me) haha. That include my dad and my friends (Hamidah, Jessika and Bani). They were also asked to dance the Pokiring dance by one of my aunt who know them.

My friends performed the Pokiring dance

With one of my best friend, Rynnie.

My lovely siblings, thanks for the hard work (^.^)

The singing and dance session finished at 11.00 p.m, phew, so tired but I am so happy because everything went well as planned.

The Wedding Story Part 2

2011-04-03T10:15:00.001+08:00

12th March 2011, Saturday. One more day before my big day. It has been raining for almost a week at my district. My parents went out early in the morning to buy the last things on the list. They arrived late in the evening and told me that flood had occur in some area. In the same time, my sister and her boyfriend went out to buy henna but they went home empty handed because all of the store had closed. Luckily for me because my aunt had a henna tree so she blended some of the leaves.

Around 7.00 p.m, my brother told us that the imam who was supposed to come for the 'Malam Berinai Ceremony' (where yellowish oil, extracted from henna leaves is applied on the fingertips) cannot come because he got stuck in the road. So the ceremony had been canceled and after my brother has done the 'Doa Tolak Bala' from his hotel room (he also cannot come home), my aunt put the blended henna leaves on my left fingertips. Left it for an hour before I washed it.

My little sister, Manja @ Bellnita looked at me and asked 'how can you be so calm in this situation?. She was worried with the flood of course. I just laughed. How can I beat God's will? Flood and rain wasn't something that we can control. I can only make a little prayer, hoping that everything will went well for tomorrow.

Luckily, my house is free from the flood but my sister from Tawau, get stuck in Kota Belud and only arrived home at 1.00 a.m. I called hubby and told him about the situation (Kota Kinabalu also free from flood). I wasn't worry about the flood in Kota Marudu as I know, come in the morning, the flood will gone. I was worry about the flood in Kota Belud, because if it still in flood in the morning, my hubby won't be able to come to Kota Marudu then.

I woke up at 5.00 a.m in the morning and the first thing that I checked is the level of the water at my nearest area. Its back to normal, and I was really happy to see that, (^.^).

The Wedding Story Part 1

2011-04-02T08:41:00.000+08:00

Hello everyone! *Sigh*. A very long holiday for me, hehe. No! I am not forgetting or giving up my blog. The fact is I will be active in this blogging thing sooner. I am sure some of you know what took me so long to update my blog. Yes, I am a married woman now and today, I want to share some story about my wedding to all of you.

I start got busy a week before the big day.So many things have to be done and so little energy to make it right. I was lucky enough to have some relatives who get involved in this wedding business because when I don't like their dress, they helped me find the most suitable dress with my white and pink wedding theme.In the end, I got two wedding gowns and a simple 'pelamin' (the place where the newly wed will sit, in my case, it only took 10minutes because we only sit there for peoples to take picture). It cost me only RM350. But, come my big day, I only wear one of those gown for the cake cutting ceremony..haha.

After the cake cutting ceremony, I only wear a casual pink 'baju kurung' while my hubby wear his white 'baju selangor'. That pink baju kurung was actually for the 'malam berinai' ceremony but sadly, those ceremony had been canceled for some reason. The white dress for my 'Akad Nikah' ceremony was bought by hubby. He took some wedding gown pictures and MMS me. I fall in love with that white dress the moment I saw the picture and what important is the colour is matching the theme.

Next post I will tell you what make me worry the night before my big day and why the 'Malam Berinai' ceremony had been canceled.

SBC Gathering

2011-02-20T10:48:00.000+08:00

We want to suggest SBC 1st gathering on 19 March 2011 to all SBC Members. Probably, it will be only a small gathering since we only have 30 members in our list right now. 19th March is the only date that is available for the three of us since Lunaticg and I will be getting married on 13 march and you can imagine how busy we are before and after that date (13 March). We know that date (19 March) is still a school holiday and everyone want to be with their family but that is the only best date that we can found available on Saturday. We allowed all SBC members to bring their families on that day. This will be a get to know session for all members, some of you maybe have been blogging for years but never have a chance to meet your blog friend, right?

SBC gathering suggestion date 19 March

Most probably, we will have a session of ice breaking and one hour session of blog talk. To anyone whose blog had already been reviewed in SBC, you can asked Lunaticg personally what you don't understand. Don't worry, I won't get angry hehehe. We will also try to arrange some games for kids or maybe a karaoke contest so everyone will have some fun. You can also suggest some activities in this post, we will collect all your suggestion and try to decide if it is suitable. Since Lunaticg and Sumandak Kinabalu really miss my mee rojak, so I will cook it for all of you too. I will prepare chicken soup and some desserts too.

Place: Lunaticg's house (soon to be my house also haha), near Sulaman Sentral, Kota Kinabalu. (For safety reason, we will only send the details to SBC members who really interested and can come).
Time: 2.00 pm.
Date: 19 or 20 March 2011.
Fee: Free but tell us how many people will be coming with you.

If you have any suggestion regarding the place, activities, date and time; feel free to talk about it here. If there are less than 10 members coming, I think a small cafe or restaurant will be a better place but we will have less activities.

To all SBC members who read this, if you can or cannot come that day, please comment in this post. Thank you. Will be waiting for everyone reply and suggestion.

Valentine and Mawlid

2011-02-14T09:38:00.000+08:00

Today is the day, yeah, it is Valentine's Day. Owh, wait, tomorrow is a holiday? what for? Oh I see, tomorrow is holiday because of Mawlid. You do not know what Mawlid is? So do I, hehe. But, here in Malaysia, it is also known as Maulidur Rasul or Maulud Nabi. I am sure most of you know or have heard about Maulidur Rasul or Maulud Nabi instead of Mawlid, right?

Valentine's Day according to Wikipedia, is an annual commemoration held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery and sending greeting cards.

Mawlid according to Wikipedia is a term used to refer to the observance of the birthday of the Islamic prophet Muhammad which occurs in Rabi' al-awwal, the third month in the Islamic calendar.

Happy Valentine's day for those who celebrate it. Please be wise and do not be weak because of love. Remember the joke we always heard " don't make a baby, without a daddy", haha. I am serious okay? I have no worry towards the adults, but the teenagers, hmmm...

Every single day is also a day to celebrate love for me, that is why I had never celebrate it I guess, hehe. Happy holiday for tomorrow, more time to spent with your loved one? hehe..

Chayo-chayo....

A Valentine Story

2011-02-13T10:05:00.002+08:00

Well, I know this girl, sweet and naive. She is the type of person who believe in first love and believe that her first love is also her last love. There is nothing wrong with that, I know everyone also hoping the same, right? I am going to tell you a sad love story today, her story.

This girl do not believe in sex before marriage, she is really strong with her belief. Then, come a guy asking for her love, want to be her boyfriend and so, they become a couple. After some time, this girl came to me, crying. She told me that her boyfriend had rape her, but she did not dare to tell anybody. This guy also starting to asked for money, to treat him, paying for his phone and this girl just gave the money. This girl was afraid if the guy will leave her, that is why she just gave him the money.

But, one day, after almost five years with that guy, this guy starting acting suspicious. Every time they meet, this guy always look at his phone or watch. Sometimes, his phone rang and he will only answer it when this girl is not around him.

This girl, asked this guy for the truth, but this guy deny it, denying the fact that he had an affair with his colleague. But, come the moment when the truth suddenly been discovered. This girl cried and get mad. She called this guy's father and told him how bad his son was. In fact, she was going to tell the whole world how bad this guy was.

She really cannot accept the fact, and keep on thinking what will happen to her after this? she's losing everything. At first, she still want to continue cry and get mad, but then, a thought crossed her mind and make her think. So, she gave up and called this guy and gave him what he want - a break up. (he want a break up but did not dare to do it).

Later, I asked her what changing her mind? She smile and said that suddenly her mind asked her heart whether she is getting mad because of her love toward the guy or because of her ego? Turned out that she accepted the guy not because of love, but because she feel lonely, but too late for her to know the truth.

So, I really do not know how to comment in this matter. It is just lucky for her for being able to get rid of her past so fast. And, lucky for her for being able to realize what love is, and what ego is.

Chayo-chayo....

Love or Stupid?

2011-02-12T10:54:00.000+08:00

I know most of us are in a valentine mood right now, happy valentine to those who celebrate it, :). As this is the week of love, so I will mostly talk about love. No, I am not sharing my love story to you, but I will share others love story and hopefully all of us, can learn something from it.

Well, I knew this girl, such a young and pretty girl. She has two boyfriend, when the other boyfriend left her for good, she felt like her love toward the other boyfriend also disappeared. She want her ex back. So, she try and try to get her ex back, ignored her other boyfriend and slept and had sex with her male best friend and claimed that she cannot forget her ex. The thing is, how could she claimed that her love is strong when in the same time, she could sleep and had sex with her male best friend? How can she dreaming about taking care of other when she cannot take a good care of her self?

Another love story to share, I know this guy who soft as a woman in his heart. He fall in love with this poor girl, a student. So, they declared their feeling and as this guy already work, he support some of her financial needed but in the same time this girl slept with almost every man except her boyfriend. When she got pregnant, she came back to this guy, telling how big her love was to this guy. This guy cried and asked me "Bel, does my love that cheap in her eyes? Did she think because of my appearance, I will accept her just like that?" and until now, this guy is still single and do not want to get married.

Happy Valentine everyone. Love will make us happy, but remember do not be stupid because of love. I would say the guy in the second story is doing his right decision there, while the girl in the first story, hopefully she will be a bit clever this year, hehe.

How To Handle Your Obsessed Ex

2011-02-10T08:01:00.001+08:00

Imagine you have a happy new life now, already move on after the breakup with your ex.The only problem is your ex seem like crazy and desperate, cannot move on and still cannot accept the reality. They keep on sent you email even you never reply it. Worse of all, they put your name in the internet, so the whole world will know about their feeling.Yes, sound like an obsessed ex to me there, so annoying.

What will you do to get rid of it? Most of the people that I know will just ignore it. Never put their attention on that matter. But, what if even after a year or two, your ex still crazy for you? How will you react to that matter? I am sharing some tips here that might be useful to.

1. Make your rejection final and firm

Never give a chance to your ex to negotiate or manipulate the situation. Refuse all offers of dates and friendly meeting.

2. Don't discuss the past

Never mention about the good times you have together, Instead, tell them how happy you are with your decision and make it clear that you have moved on in your life.

3. Keep things diplomatic if you have to see her a lot at school or work

Remember that your ex is just another person, not a friend. Be extra careful with your words because you will never know what your ex understand from it.

4. Stand your ground

Do not say you are better off alone but then return the next week because you are lonely. Be strong!!

5. Inform your family, friends and co-workers about the situation.

Having larger and stronger friends around may serve as deterrent.

6. Don't share any details about your new partner with the ex.

Because it will make their obsess more and details about your partner's life, picture etc, may endanger your partner (this is of course depending on how crazy your ex is).

Well, there are some tips that I can find. Have you ever facing with this situation? How do you react to it? Please share your experience if you have any.

The Cats And Squirrel

2011-02-07T08:25:00.000+08:00

Not everyone like cats, is not it? I know it because my brother's wife also do not like cats. Every time our cat want to get near her, she will get angry and shooed away the poor cat. I even saw her hit my cat one day, such a naughty sister in law, hehe.

I have four cats right now and they are just a normal cats, not the expensive one and even if I sell my cats, nobody will want to buy it, hahaha. But, I still love them so much. Ok, enough about the love, let me tell you a story about these lovely cats of mine.

One morning, we were surprised to find out that one of our cats had catch a squirrel. So, they brought it inside the house and start sniffing and toying it around. I feel sad for the squirrel and try to rescue it from my naughty cats but its just too late.

After tired fooling around with the dead squirrel, they just left it untouched. 'Why didn't they catch a mouse instead?' asked my father, hahaha. But still, I am happy to see my cats are normal. The thing is these cats had lost their mother since they are very little. Luckily for me, they already know how to eat at that time. So, they grown up with no guide from their mother and I started to wonder whether they can act like a real cat or no, hahaha I think I am just being a paranoid there, hehe.

How about you? do you have any pet? any story similar to mine? please share some...

DLS : Dusun Song

2011-02-05T11:17:00.002+08:00

Its Dusun Language Saturday (DLS) again. Every week on Saturday, I will share one situation and translate them to Dusun language. Today I will try to translate a Dusun song. Why do I am sharing my ethnic language? I am not very good in my language because we don't speak any Dusun at home. Most of the time, we speak Malay. Sharing my language, hopefully will help me improve my Dusun vocabulary. My parents and friends will be my references. There is no dictionary for Dusun language yet. Sorry for not posting any DLS for the past few weeks.

So the song that I want to share with you today called 'Nokosuai Ginawo ku' means 'change of heart' by Felix Agus. I think most of Sabahan know this song.

Dusun : Nung id maso masod toruhai diti

Malay : Kalau dalam masa terdekat ini

English : If in the near future

Dusun : Koboros okud tumongkiad dika

Malay : Aku mengucapkan tentang berpisah denganmu

English : I said my goodbye to you

Dusun : Kada no koruol oh ginawo nu

Malay : Jangan lah kiranya kau sakit hati (terluka)

English : Hope you won't get hurt

Dusun : Tuh iti noh ralan pilion ku

Malay : Sebab ini lah jalan yang ku pilih

English : Because this is the way that I want it to be

Dusun : Id pomusarahan ku nopo daa

Malay : Dalam fikiran ku

English : On my mind

Dusun : Au oku noh sipogihum doh suai

Malay : Aku tak mahu mencari yang lain lagi

English : I didn't mean to look for another one

Dusun : Nga au ku nokoilo ti ginawo ku

Malay : Tapi aku tak tahu hati ku ini

English : But I don't know why my heart

Dusun : Tu suminimban ie di pama

Malay : Akhirnya berubah pula

English : Finally changed

Dusun : Nokotongkiad oku dika toruhai

Malay : Aku berjauhan dengan mu buat seketika

English : Been apart for a while with you

Dusun : Iri no nokosuai ginawo ku

Malay : Sebab itu lah hatiku berubah

English : That's when my heart changed

Dusun : Otopot noh kanto o boros doh tulun

Malay : Mungkin benarlah kata orang

English : Probably there's a truth about what people used to say

Dusun : Sodu id mato, sodu nogi id ginawo

Malay : Jauh di mata, jauh juga di hati

English : Far from sight, much afar from the heart

Dusun : Uludon ku ohopod tunturu ku

Malay : Ku menyusun sepuluh jari ku

English : I arrange my 10 fingers

Dusun : Mokiampun oku'd kumaa dika

Malay : Meminta maaf kepada mu

English : Asking for forgiveness

Dusun : Mimang yoku noh matu ie nakasala

Malay : Mungkin memang aku yang bersalah

English : Perhaps it is all my fault

Dusun : Apatut nod katagadan nu

Malay : Memang patut untuk kau marah

English : Cannot blame you for getting mad

Wow, so hard for me to translate this song, have to think carefully so the meaning of the song will still the same with the dusun version. Anyway, enjoy the song everyone. If there are any mistakes with the translation, do not hesitate to tell me, do not worry, I won't bite, hehehe.

True Love Or Obsess?

2011-02-04T11:03:00.004+08:00

Sometimes, when you breakup with your boyfriend or girlfriend, you still cannot forget her/him no matter how hard you try. Thus make you believe that he/her is your true love and you try and try to get him/her back tough you know that he/she already get a new life, new girlfriend/boyfriend, get engaged or get married.

What is true love? Do you really know what is is? If you do not know, click here to read more about it. One thing about true love is you will always ready to let go if it makes the person you love happy. Not hunting him/her down until they hate you. Obsess is an uncontrollable feeling toward your ex and you are willing to do anything to make him/her yours again. You cannot let them go and still hoping you can be together again. Does it sound like love to you? Check more about love and obsession here .

Why do you cannot let it go? Have you ever think about it? Just how many grieving time you need to move on? and what stage are you now? As long as I concern, there are five stages in grieving which are:

Denial
Anger
Bargaining
Depression
Acceptance

Some people keep staying in the first stage, what a waste of time. I remember someone very close to me told me that we just have to open our heart and eyes, in order to find a new life, new love and new hope. You will say that easier for me to say right? But, if the others can move on, why can't you?

Happy Chinese New Year 2011

2011-02-03T09:10:00.001+08:00

Happy Chinese New Year to everyone who celebrate it. Those who do not celebrate it, happy holiday, hehe. I do not celebrate it, but my grandfather does. So, I probably will go to their house later. Cannot wait to get an angpow from them, haha. What? I am too old to get an angpow? No. As long as I am not married, I am qualified to get an angpow, even if I am 50 years old, hahahaha.

As we all know, this is the year of rabbit (metal rabbit, according to the Chinese Horoscope Prediction). So, what do we know about this year? Rabbit is a harmless animal for me, so I do not think that this year is gonna be tough like last year.

The year of the rabbit is traditionally associated with home, artistic, diplomacy and keeping the peace. Therefore, 2011 is very likely to be relatively calmer one than 2010 both on the world scene, as well as on a personal level.

Some famous people who was born in the year of rabbit are Albert Einstein, Leon Trotsky, Frank Sinatra, Pope Benedict XVI, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp , David Beckham, Tiger Woods and Whitney Houston. One soon to be famous person that I know is my sister, Bellnita @ Manja, hehehe.

That's all for now, have to get ready for my driving lesson, uhuk uhuk. Happy Chinese New Year everyone. Hopefully you can get many angpow, hehe.

Stop Talking If It Is Just Meant To Hurt Me

2011-02-01T08:05:00.005+08:00

Have you ever meet people that every time they talk seem to annoy you? or hurt you? They like to talk but never seem to care whether its hurt or not. What worse is, they will never ask for forgiveness. I do not know what went wrong with them. Others will make mistake, but they will not (in their opinion la)

I do meet one or two in my whole life and it suck for having to face them everyday. Well, not everyday, on weekday only. At first, I still can handle it, but after three years, man! I really cannot stand it anymore, even to hear their voice from the distance.

One of them is like to see me and ask to shake hand with me. What is the point of him doing that? I meet him almost everyday. So you can assume that I do not want to shake hand with him, and that is where he said something like this 'Kenapa pula, saya pun manusia ba. Hina sangat kah sampai kau tidak mahu salam?' (Why so? I am also a human being. Why you did not want to shake hand with me? Hello!!! Even if you are a prime minister, I still do not want to so it, not if it have to be done everyday. Beside, it is my hand and its up to me whether I want to touch his hand or not. If he still forcing me, that can be considered as sexual harassment, right?

The other one, is also well known for his temper and 'no insurance' mouth. People cannot ask why he is late or whatever question that make him look like a bad person. He even threaten to hit me for marking an X in his attendance, haha. I am just doing my job, no need to get angry with me, right? He is just so not gentleman hehe.

Well, enough with it. I know some of my boss read my blog. Sorry boss, I am not talking about you, hehe. So, how about your colleagues? Ever faces the same situation? How do you handle it? For me, I just ignore them, really do not know any better way other than that, uhuk uhuk.

Chayo-chayo....

What To Do If You Have No Idea

2011-01-31T10:28:00.000+08:00

Well, I really do not have any idea right now of what to write or even of what to think. So, while looking for something to think of on the net, I found this. Very useful one, ehehe.

What Should I Blog About? Tips for Bloggers Who Have No Ideas

Both new and “old” bloggers often ask, “What should I blog about?” These tips for bloggers who have no ideas may help catapult you from “casual blogger” to “professional blogger” (a blogger who makes money blogging…it’s a sweet ride, fellow scribes!). These tips focus on writing blog posts — not creating new blogs.

1. Solve problems in your own life. I created six “Quips and Tips” blogs, and I almost never write about my personal life, opinions, or daily habits. I’d much rather share quips and tips — and I love writing about how to solve problems! For example, my husband and I recently adopted a dog (black lab/German Shepherd cross) from the SPCA. I didn’t blog about the adoption or training, but I did write How to Train Your Dog Without Getting Angry. When I’m wondering what to blog about, I try to solve a problem in my own life — and I share my tips with my readers.

2. Use a phrase, idea, or person from a previous blog post. My most popular articles on “Quips and Tips for Achieving Your Goals” are my Halloween tips and tricks. So, to ride that horse in the direction it’s going, I wrote a “sister” blog post called Book Character Costumes – Literary Halloween Costume Ideas. It’s not a rehash of my previous Halloween blog posts — it contains all new ideas and it was a blast to write! This tip for bloggers can be effective even if you have no ideas and only a few old blog posts to draw on. All you need is a kernel of an idea…

3. Revive your old blog posts. Since I’m a professional blogger — “Quips and Tips” is my full-time job – my goal is to write at least two blog posts a day. I’ve written over a thousand articles, and regularly sift through them for new ideas, tips, and quips. I don’t just republish my old articles; I rewrite blog posts so they’re new and fresh. Sometimes I change my mind about ideas or tips I’ve shared in the past; other times, I’ll take a single tip and explain it further. If you don’t know what you should blog about, jump into your previous posts with an open mind!

4. Visit science or news websites. When I was a full-time freelance writer, I read ScienceDaily and Eurekalerts every day for new article ideas. I don’t do that much these days, because I have lots of ideas for blog posts! But, when I don’t feel like delving into my stockpile of ideas or I just need a change, I’ll look at what’s happening on the research front. If you’re wondering what you should blog about, you might also read current press releases — they can be a solid source of ideas for blog posts.

5. Make WIIFM your standard. WIIFM stands for “what’s in it for me”? This is a solid freelance writing tip: writers need to give readers information that relates directly to them or solves their problems. WIIFM is also a great way to help you figure out what you should blog about. Ideas for blog posts are everywhere – but interesting, relevant ideas are harder to find. If you’re a blogger who wonders if a particular topic is worth posting, look at through your WIIFM lens. You gotta help, inform, or entertain your blog readers somehow, or they won’t return to your blog.

This is just mentioning how the writer get her idea, not supposedly can help us on our blog., as every blog is different. But, still, it is good to see how others get their idea, right? I always do the tips number four, but not limited to news websites. I search everywhere and anywhere that I could, haha. How about you? ever facing the "no idea stage"? What did you do to get rid of it? Care to share, anyone?

Having A Bad Mood?

2011-01-30T10:32:00.001+08:00

Have you ever feel like you want to scold people without any reason? Or do you ever all of the sudden feel down and just want to cry? Or have you ever meet someone like that? hehe..if you do, please forgive them. This mood swings is usually happen to women especially when there is a change on their hormone. But, this does not mean that men do not having it. There is also a mood swings causes by depression, feeling of boredom or hopelessness.

Most of us will think that depression is related to sadness. The fact is, it is also can bring feelings of moodiness, impatience, anger, or even just not caring. When all of that is out of your control, you do not need an apology here, you need to ask for a help, by seeing a therapist or counselor.

Some advice for you to be considered, if you ever face this situation:

RECOGNIZE YOU’RE NOT ALONE. Although not every people experiences mood changes to the same degree, they are common.

CATCH YOUR BREATH. Or count to 10. Or do something that lets you settle down for a few moments, especially if you’re feeling angry or irritable. Try to look at the situation from the point of view of a wise observer.

TALK TO PEOPLE YOU TRUST. Friends can help each other by realizing that they’re not alone in their feelings. Talking to parents is important, too. Parents can share their own experiences dealing with bad moods. Plus, they’ll appreciate it if you try to explain how you feel instead of just slamming a door. Teachers and counselors are often good resources, and a doctor can help sort through questions about development. Keeping feelings inside can make them seem much worse.

EXERCISE. Regular exercise produces more beta-endorphin, a hormone that controls stress and improves mood. Go for a run, play some tennis, ride your bike, or punch a punching bag.

GET ENOUGH SLEEP. Though it can be hard to find enough time, getting adequate rest is very important. Being tired can lead to more sadness and irritability.

CREATE. Get involved in some sort of project, like starting a journal or diary, building something out of wood, or starting an art or music piece. Writing can help you organize and express your thoughts and feelings and will make things more manageable. Don’t worry about grammar, spelling, or punctuation; the important thing is just to get your thoughts on paper. Do the same thing with paint, sculpture, music, or other art forms. Put your feelings into your artwork.

CRY. There’s nothing wrong with crying; in fact, it often makes a person feel better. However, if you find that you are sad, irritable, bored, or hopeless much of the time, or if you just can’t seem to shake the blues, you might be depressed and need help from a counselor or doctor. If you’re feeling stressed or angry a lot of the time, getting help could be very useful for you.

WAIT. Just as you can get into a bad mood for what seems like no reason at times, that mood can also pass. If your negative mood sticks around too long, though — or if it’s interfering with the way you deal with friends, parents, school, or activities — then you may want to talk to a school counselor, parent, or therapist about what you can do to feel better.

Do talk to someone that you trust if you are in depress, believe me, you are not alone. The people who love you will never leave you if you are in need. By sharing your feeling, you can reduce your pressure and you will be able to laugh again, hehe.

My Favourite Song

2011-01-27T07:02:00.003+08:00

I heard he sang a lullaby

I heard he sang it from his heart

When I found out thought I would die

Because that lullaby was mine

I heard he sealed it with a kiss

He gently kissed her cherry lip

I found that so hard to believe

Because his kiss belonged to me

How could an angel break my heart?

Why didn't he catch my falling star?

I wish, I didn't wish so hard

Maybe I wished our love apart

How could an angel break my heart?

I heard her face was white as rain

Soft as a rose that blooms in May

He keeps her picture in a frame

And when he sleeps he calls her name

I wonder if she makes him smile

The way he used to smile at me

I hope she doesn't make him laugh

Because his laugh belongs to me

How could an angel break my heart?

Why didn't he catch my falling star?

I wish, I didn't wish so hard

Maybe I wished our love apart

How could an angel break my heart?

Oh, my soul is dying, it's crying

I'm trying to understand

Please help me

How could an angel break my heart?

Why didn't he catch my falling star?

I wish, I didn't wish so hard

Maybe I wished our love apart

How could an angel break my heart?

My heart

I do not know why, but I like Toni Braxton. I love to hear most of her song. It never fail to make me sing along every time I heard her song on a radio or television. What about you? Who is your favourite singer? What is your favourite song? Anybody like Toni Braxton?

The New Boss

2011-01-24T08:14:00.000+08:00

It is been almost a month since we got our new boss. The funny thing is we have been hearing things that this new boss are bad and somewhat fussy. So we have been worried ever since, trying to finish all of the unfinished work. But, spending our times from 8 to 5 with her is somewhat interesting and fun for me, really. I do not know about my other colleagues, but personally, I really like her and I adore her ability to control things and manage her life as a boss, as a wife and as a mother ( she is apart from her husband and children, and the youngest one is just 10 months old).

I do not know whether my work is getting less or not. What I know is I do not have to handle any letters and files anymore, but every work regarding computer would be my responsibility. Been hearing that I will handle the account soon, but hopefully it will never happen. I do not know anything about account and I think my brain also not ready to learn about it (and will never be), uhuk uhuk...

Auw, enough about my work. Now, what I have been trying to say here is "never judge a book by its cover". Never judge a person just by hearing what other said. We have to know him / her first, then we decide whether the story about them is right or wrong.

As we all knew, the winner for my WW contest is Sumandak Kinabalu @ Jane. I asked her whether she want the money or the books and she chose the books.

So now you have more books to be review for your blog, ehehe.

Well, that is all that I can say for now. Happy reading to you Sumandak. Do let me know if you already got the books, :).

Govt to build RM62m road linking Belaga and Bakun

2011-01-20T08:19:00.000+08:00

Some 15,000 villagers here stand to benefit from the building of a new road linking Belaga and Bakun under the army’s community programme Jiwa Murni.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced yesterday that the Government would allocate RM62mil for this 37km stretch, which will begin construction in a month’s time.

“With this (road), the people here will feel the difference and benefit from it,” he said when opening a new RM46mil clinic here.

The road was one of the projects in the wish list of the Belaga people that was granted by Najib yesterday.

He is the first Prime Minister to set foot in Belaga town.

The other projects approved are a RM2.3mil bridge over Sungai Linau and a kindergarten in Lusong Laku, the upgrading of SMK Belaga and other old schools and supply of clean water to Belaga town and nearby longhouses at a cost of RM35mil by October next year.

On the new 20-bed Belaga clinic, he said it would be equipped with an X-ray machine and he would see to it that the clinic also had at least one full-time doctor.

Earlier, Najib said the Government would continue to help the rural communities particularly in Sarawak and Sabah.

“My personal satisfaction is when I get to help the people in the rural areas and know that they are satisfied with the effort made.

“My coming here today is to help the people of Belaga,” he told a cheering crowd.

In A Lazy Mode

2011-01-17T08:33:00.000+08:00

Today is Monday, I know most of us feel a little lazy, still on a weekend mood I guess hehe. So, I am sharing some jokes here with the hope that it can lighten up your day. Have fun reading it my dear friends.

A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his customer, “This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you.” The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, “Which do you want, son?” The boy takes the quarters and leaves. “What did I tell you?” said the barber. “That kid never learns!” Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store. “Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?” The boy licked his cone and replied, “Because the day I take the dollar, the game is over!”
Three guys, stranded on a desert island, find a magic lantern containing a genie, who grants them each one wish. The first guy wishes he was off the island and back home. The second guy wishes the same. The third guy says "I’m lonely. I wish my friends were back here."
A guy meets a hooker in a bar. She says, "This is your lucky night. I’ve got a special game for you. I’ll do absolutely anything you want for $300, as long as you can say it in three words." The guy replies, "Hey, why not?" He pull his wallet out of his pocket, and one at a time lays three hundred-dollar bills on the bar, and says, slowly: "Paint…my…house."
A guy has a talking dog. He brings it to a talent scout. "This dog can speak English," he claims to the unimpressed agent. "Okay, Sport," the guys says to the dog, "what’s on the top of a house?" "Roof!" the dog replies. "Oh, come on..." the talent agent responds. "All dogs go ‘roof’." "No, wait," the guy says. He asks the dog "what does sandpaper feel like?" "Rough!" the dog answers. The talent agent gives a condescending blank stare. He is losing his patience. "No, hang on," the guy says. "This one will amaze you. " He turns and asks the dog: "Who, in your opinion, was the greatest baseball player of all time?" "Ruth!" goes the dog. And the talent scout, having seen enough, boots them out of his office onto the street. And the dog turns to the guy and says "Maybe I shoulda said DiMaggio?"
A guy shows up late for work. The boss yells "You should have been here at 8:30!" he replies: "Why? What happened at 8:30?"
My sister was with two men in one night. She could hardly walk after that. Can you imagine? Two dinners! (Sarah Silverman)
I can’t think of anything worse after a night of drinking than waking up next to someone and not being able to remember their name, or how you met, or why they’re dead. (Laura Kightlinger)
A guy tells his psychiatrist: ‘It was terrible. I was away on business, and I emailed my wife that I’d be back a day early. I rushed home from the airport and found her in bed with my best friend. I don’t get it. How could she do this to me?" "Well," says the psychiatrist. "Maybe she didn’t see the email."
My grandfather always said, "Don't watch your money; watch your health." So one day while I was watching my health, someone stole my money. It was my grandfather. (Jackie Mason)
A guy dies and is sent to Hell. Satan meets him, shows him doors to three rooms, and says he must choose one to spend eternity in. In the first room, people are standing in shit up to their necks. The guy says "no, let me see the next room." In the second room, people are standing with shit up to their noses. Guy says no again. Finally, Satan opens the door to the third room. People are standing with shit up to their knees, drinking coffee and eating danish pastries. The guy says, "I pick this room." Satan says okay and starts to leave, and the guy wades in and starts pouring some coffee. On the way out Satan yells, "O.K., coffee break's over. Everyone back on your heads!"
A man is walking on the beach when he discovers a bottle containing genie. He rubs it and a genie comes out, promises to grant him one wish. He says, "Peace in the Middle east, that's my wish." The genie looks concerned, then says "No, I'm sorry, that's just not possible. Some things just can't be changed. Do you have another wish?" The guys says 'Well...for my whole life I've never received oral sex from my wife. That would be my wish." The genie pauses for another moment and then says "How would you define peace?"
I was making love to this girl and she started crying. I said, "Are you going to hate yourself in the morning?" She said. "No. I hate myself now." (Rodney Dangerfield)
A guy asks a lawyer what his fee is. "I charge $50 for three questions," the lawyer says. "That’s awfully steep, isn’t it?" the guy asks. "Yes," the lawyer replies, "Now what’s your final question?"
I know a guy who called up the Home Shopping Network. They said "Can I help you?" and he said "No, I'm just looking." (George Miller)
A guy goes into a confession box. "Father O’Malley," he says, "my name is Emil Cohen. I’m seventy eight years old. Believe it or not, I’m currently involved with a 28 year old girl, and also, on the side, her 19 year old sister. We engage in all manner of pleasure, and in my entire life I’ve never felt better." "My good man," says the priest, "I think you’ve come to the wrong place. Why are you telling me?" And the guy goes: "I’m telling everybody!"

Can We Accept it?

2011-01-15T11:57:00.000+08:00

Sorry for the late update for the WW result my dear friends. I know I made a promise to update it yesterday but I was so busy and tired. Anyway, as you all know, the last WW answer is 'pen drive @ thumb drive'. No one had give 'pen drive' as their answer.

Sumandak Kinabalu answered it as "has a special feature, can store and transfer data using this watch". I can accept her answer but as this is a contest, and I really do not want anyone to feel like I have been unfair, so I am going to ask you whether we can accept her answer as the correct answer or not. If there is no complain from the other contestant, Sumandak Kinabalu will be the winner for this contest then.

Money or Books?

More Books

So there you go my friends. Please response as soon as possible. Thank you in advance.

20 Fun Things To Do On an Elevator While Bored

Next time you're on an elevator and feel a little bored, liven up the moment with some of these insightful ideas. Guaranteed to make heads turn or your money back.

When there's only one other person in the elevator, tap them on the shoulder and then pretend it wasn't you.
Push the buttons and pretend they give you a shock. Smile, and go back for more.
Call the Psychic Hotline from your cell phone and ask if they know what floor you're on.
Swat at flies that don't exist.
Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering, "Shut up, all of you, just shut up!"
Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside, ask, "Got enough air in there?"
Lay down a Twister mat and ask people if they'd like to play.
Leave a box in the corner, and when someone gets on, ask them if they hear something ticking.
Ask if you can push the button for other people, but push the wrong ones.
Pretend you are a flight attendant and review emergency procedures and exits with the passengers.
Stand silently and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off.
Stare, grinning at another passenger for a while, and then announce, "I have new socks on."
Draw a little square on the floor with chalk and announce to the other passengers, "This is my personal space!"
Fart loudly then exclaim "Was that you. There's no way I could do that one because unfortately mine don't come out loud."
Before the elevator door opens shout "DING" and then laugh and say "beat you again Mr Elevator."
Stand really close to someone, sniffing them occasionally.
Hire a labrador, wear sunglasses and repeatedly walk into the walls whilst pretending to not hear the other passenger's direction.
Drop a pen and wait until someone reaches to help pick it up, then scream, "that's mine!"
Hold the doors open and say you're waiting for your friend. After a while, let the doors close and say, "Hi Greg. How's your day been?"
Stare at another passenger for a while, then announce in horror, "You're one of THEM!" and back away slowly. (
