~ ON HIATUS ~

i think i should put on HIATUS mode since i can barely write or speak to people nowadays. i can even barely breathe. so, that's it... i'll let u know when i'm back (hopefully it's not going to be a very long break. yeah, i will overcome these predicaments and will be back as a brand new person. Amin)

Needing You

How do i start? Hurm, it's been a rough day for me. Well, i should say a rough week. My abah was admitted in ICU at Pantai Hospital last night whilst my angah admitted in Tropicana Medical Centre. Both were warded at the same time, so it was quite a chaos. I accompanied my angah to TMC while the rest of my family members went to Pantai.

Smlm alang and I tdo kat TMC, yang lain blk rumah sbb xleh menunggu kat ICU. Visited my abah tghr tadi.. nie nk pegi lagi skali, then wanna head to TMC lak. My abah and angah are still under doctor's supervision, so i couldn't say much about their condition. So far nmpk makin baik... harap2nye dptlaa diaorg recover dlm sehari dua nie. Amin... Amin

Satu2 mslh dtg - personal prob, masters degree, work.. haih... xpelaa.. jgn mengeluh. Ini ujian Tuhan. Maybe He has a better plan for me. Be strong!


p/s: Please pray for my abah & angah ye.. semoga diaorg cepat sembuh. Amin. To my BFFs, thanks a lot for always being there for me. Really appreciate your concern & kindness. Thanks again

Highlights fo Today

Hi there,

Anyway, basically today just nk share story about my past time leisure. Well, if you see few ‘WEDDING’ blogroll on the right panel of my blog, please do not make quick assumption since my wedding is near to nowhere! (Which means that I don't have the exact time frame of it. Just cross our fingers hoping that someday it will eventually take place okay. hehe). Some people might already knew about my passion in wedding preparations as well as photography. I love weddings!! (to be exact -- the preparations!). I’ve made 6 hand bouquets and few hantaran before. But yeah, sume tue macam sesi warm up je since I didn’t get the material that i really interested in + x dpt nk apply pun design2 yg diminati. lagipun buat tue just nk tolong2 je.. membantu mane yg patut. hehe. Hmm,xtaulaa apsal rase passionate semacam je kalau cakap pasal wedding preparations ever since I was a small kid. Ade cite2 nk jadi wedding planner kot? Hahaha.

Apple green + white bouquet for solemnization ceremony

As for the photography part, bab ambil gambar and edit gambar mmg kegemaran – senang kate favourite no.1 lah! Cumenye skrg nie je cam x berape ade mase nk buat editing. Lagipun editing nie demand lots of patience and time. Sekarang memang susah sket nk commit on editing. Anyway, nak pendekkan cerite, here’s some of my work (saje nk share.. hehe). Have fun ;)












off topic jap ------ hurm.. i miss someone badly. last jumpe tahun lepas. LAST YEAR?? OUCH!! that was really bad! (gilerlaa.. rase cam setahun x jmpe.. uwaaa!!!) tuelaa, org tue workaholic sgt. naseb bdn.. huhu.. xper2.. kite up lagi sebulan. kasi surprise same dier. hehehe :D

Till then

~ 2010 Wishlist ~

2010 definitely gonna be a year full of surprise. There's a lot to expect and lots more to achieve. Well, these are the things I look forward in 2010:

1- Complete my postgraduate course -- my target is by August. That's the earliest I assume since I have 5 countries to study plus an internet survey to run. So I wouldn't expect it will be easy. Still, I really hope that I can attend next convocation session. Weee :D But the downside of it - I'm sure I'll be missing the part of being a student like a h***. Working life (I mean REAL working life) definitely gonna be a whole new and different chapter for me.

2- Get a new job! -- Yes, I do have a job and the contract was renewed until end of this year. Oh, and the best part of it, I even got an increment. It was something that I least expected but it happened anyway. Alhamdulillah. But still, I need a new job once I've completed my master's degree. Ehem, just another future plan :)

3- Own a car -- Future plan! Remember, future plan! ;p (well, it would be essential - especially if I get a new work place which is far from mama's. Alaa.. nanti x bleh car pooling lagi ngan mama ke? x bestnye)

Well, I don't have any idea of how my 'dream car' should be but this one looks very seductive and alluring right?



Mazda 2 Sedan

I've looked at the hatchback model few weeks ago, but since it is hatchback.. lupekan jelaa (I had enough of hatchback :p). But this sedan? Very tempting! *drooling*



Rear view

Nice right? hehehe *keep on drooling* ;)

I'm a big fan of Mazda cars.. started with Mazda Astina --> Mazda Lantis --> RX8 --> Mazda 3 --> Mazda 6 (but sume pon x mampu & x dpt nk beli... huhu. same goes to Mazda 2 nie gak kot. Tapi xperlaa.. pray hard for it!!)

Oh, and yes.. i am looking at this one too :)



Kia Forte

The name might be a little bit funny.. but the car? Smart! -- Okay, I know I'm a bit crazy over cars. Nielaa susah jadi researcher, buat mnde pape pon nk search sehabis2nye, sume info pon akan digodek smpilaa rase puas hati. Well, I'm just full of curiosity, nak buat cmner kan? ;p

But as usual, tengok jelaa.. belinye belum tentu since ade commitment on my family's new car. Kang lari plak savings. Huhuhu


4 - Increase my savings -- Haa, baru je cakap pasal savings. So, ini adalah perkara wajib okeh! It's just because I'm addicted to online shopping. So I have to save more to buy more! Hehehe (I find shopping at malls are less convenient nowadays, that's why i converted to online shopping). Plus, I have 2 flight tickets that I've already booked -- which means I will be traveling again this year. Hehehe (takkan xnak pegi lak kan? kenalaa fikir segale expenses yg bakal dikeluarkan nanti). So, that's another reason for it. Baru ingat nak add one more destination in my vacation plan but lepas fikir panjang I have to cancel it. Banyak lagi duit nak digunekan tahun nie. So, berjimat cermat sikit ye :)

5- Eat less, exercise more -- In other words "Please loose your weight until you reach your ideal weight again!". Okay, i admit that I've gained a lot and expended sideways. Habis sume paksi X mengembang, paksi Y je yg maintain :p huhuhu (Please blame the hormones!! kejap happy, kejap bengong.. asyik nk makan je rase. Hahahaha - just ignore me, I'm still in denial phase :p) So, langkah pertama will be --> Jeng2.. you'll have to wait for a month. Then baru bleh story pjg lebar. Nak tgk dulu berkesan ke x. Wish me luck ye ;)


Takpe2.. kite kena positive! Chaiyok! Ganbatte Kudasai!

Okaylaa.. bagi 5 je dulu ek, yang lain2 tue I'll update later.

Have a nice day. XOXO ;)

PP

Borong Roti...

Hye there,

Hurm.. xde ape yang best pun. Just got back from mini co-op gare2 perut nie lapar. Skipped lunch, so as usual boronglaa roti - bekalan tuk 2-3 hari. Misi nak diet laa katekan. But still tembam je rasenye, buat penat je x makan. Hahaha (i know i need to exercise to burn down the fat faster. Disebabkan i stopped doing exercise few months back, nie dah start balik rase sengal2 bdn + rase cepat penat and yang plg ketara sekali - berat x turun2 eventho makan sikit! Byk pulak downside nye ek? Adehh). So the key is -- EXERCISE! Maybe sbb tue time skolah dulu xde nk tembam mcm nie eventho makan+tdo je keje since i was pretty active back then - rasenyelaa :p (volleyball practice + dikir + jogging on weekends + huha huha x hengat dunia - kire agak hyper laa jugak sbb tue metabolic rate tinggi kot :p)





So, abislaa citer roti tue kan? Hehehe. Hmm, ni tgh bosan since terpakse berkurung in my room kat office (quarantine diri sendri :p) gare2 i got eyelid cysts nie. Well, it's not contagious, tapi sendiri yang rase uncomfortable. That's why i'm avoiding myself from making direct contact with my colleagues. Best solution? Doklaa dlm bilik tue snyp2.. wat keje sendiri. Hehe

Okay, gtg. Nak sambung type report.

Take care!

Another Encounter with Eyelid Cysts

Hi there,

Actually, I'm suppose to finish up my Master's degree progress report.. but i find myself stuck in the middle of it.. so, here i am.. taking 30 minutes rest (by blogging? huhu. i think i have more idea to write here than on my report. You know how boring scientific papers could be right? fakta dan fakta semate2 :p)

So, does anyone of you ever heard of Eyelid Cysts? Hmm.. nie pun 1st time dengar sbnrnye. hehe

Well, my left eyelid started to swell about 2-3 weeks ago. But i don't care much since i used to have blocked ducts/glands inside my eyelid. Maybe setahun sekali eyelid tue akan bengkak.. but usually it will occur when I'm in stress condition (okay, let just say my immune system doesn't work well under stress :p) Tapi x sure kali nie stress sbb ape ye? Bukan direct stress kot.. just side effect bile badan + minda really exhausted. Maybe sbb i have to ulang alik from my house  to my along's house and to Tropicana Medical Center last month. Going here and there, back and forth.. day and night. Alhamdulillah, managed to go thru last 2 months on 2009 dgn jayenye)

Owh, back to the topic.. Well, i think I am the only one in my family that will come up with pelbagai penyakit/kemalangan.. smpi my family members will regard some of it as 'weird'. I had asthma since i was small, luckily it's getting better. I had cut on my head smpi bleeding giler2 (tangga katil double decker jatuh atas kepale.. and terkena cangkuk dia), adelaa sampai penuh darah kat satu towel mandi tue. I kept this incident from my parents until my mum found the towel under my bed. Luckily bile check kat doctor, xde darah beku. Kalau x, sure kena operate. huhuhu. Then, I had my first surgery on my foot when i was in form 1 (dlm byk2 tempat nape foot jugak yg jadi pilihan? haha :p) and of course, this eyelid problem. I used to remember that one of my doctors said that the gland that produce my tears was blocked. That was years ago.. and i didn't even know the exact condition of it. Surprisingly,baru skrg dapat tahu name penyakit tue - Eyelid Cyst @ Chalazion. Disebabkan bengkak yg mulenye ade satu, now dh jadi dua biji (it's infectious - internally, not externally).. so i will call it Eyelid Cysts ;p

cysts on my left eyelid (masa nie bengkak dh surut sikit)

Mule2 dier bengkak sikit2.. then start gatal2.. pastue berair.. and sakit tue ditarik sampai ke kepale. Well, bile urat kat mate bengkak.. mmg akan effect ke kepala. It's normal (bak kate doktor laa). Bengkak macam ketumbit (least glamor name :p).. but it's not normal ketumbit i would say. Hurm, some of the reasons why sakit nie x baik2.. 1- i forgot doktor suruh tuam mate, 2- i keep wearing eyeshadow & mascara (konon2 xnk bg nmpk ketara mata nie sakit.. but it worsen the condition rupenye). I went for second appointment with my doctor today since i need to replenish my medication and the swelling is not getting any better. The doc even sempat bergurau suruh buat surgery tuk remove the cysts. Surgery?? Big NO for me. So baik gune traditional way which is picit cysts tue smpi pecah - which i haven't done it yet sbb kead masih x mengizinkan (cysts nie mcm jerawat, it happens bile ade oil clogged the glands/ducts kat our eyelid. so bile nmpk mcm dier dh 'masak'.. picitlaa biar pecah so that fluids yg infectious tue dpt dikeluarkan. Once dh pecah, Insya-Allah eyelid tue akan back to normal). Tapi sebelum nie x penah lak smpi ke peringkat cysts tue pecah.. usually bengkak tue akan surut. So right know tgh berusaha nk bg dier surut.

Anyway, here's some info that i get from the net

Chalazion
A chalazion resembles a stye, but a marked difference is it usually grows away from the edge of your eyelid. It is caused by an eye duct blockage that develops in your eye lubricating glands. Initial chalazion symptoms are swelling and tenderness. Later forming a white cyst like bump or lump within your upper or lower eylid. Chalazia normally disappears on its own in a couple of months. You can speed this process along by applying a warm compress over your cloggedeyelid several times a day. Keeping your compress tolerably warm helps drain your clogged up gland more efficiently.

Visit your doc if your chalazion blurs your vision or causes your entire eyelid to swell suddenly. Surgical removal may be necessary if it grows too big, and a biopsy should be considered for those that recur in the same spot. To prevent recurrent swollen, painful, crusty, red, bumpy or lumpy eyelid infections or blockages:

• take care with your makeup
• keep your contact lenses clean
• keep unclean hands away from your eyes
• don’t share your beauty resources ~ cosmetics

Refrain from wearing makeup until your clogged ducts have drained completely. One method for avoiding future makeup causing bumps is limiting eyeliner drawing to the outer edged area. Never over your primaryeyelid duct, located on your eyelash line closest to your nose.

So, kepade siape2 yg ade simptom mcm nie.. silelaa jmpe doktor dengan kadar segera. Don't worry, its curable :)

Note: I will write using any language which i feel comfortable with. So there will be full of English or full of Malay or mix of both.. which ever i prefer (even Korean or Japanese pun bleh.. kotlaa kalau terer.. hahaha). Hope u don't mind. Ohh.. and I'm writing this line after 40 minutes, which means i took extra 10 minutes of break. hehe. Okay, back to work!

Take care

XOXO
