what happened?

what i foresee is true. my last post was about a month ago. what happened? i actually wrote about the aquaria trip, but then, something went wrong when i pressed that 'publish post' button. so thats it. malas dah nak retype.

alrite, just a bit of update of what happened this week.

over the weekend sampai isnin, ada meeting di Avillion Legacy, Melaka. skt fakulti. food there was superb. dari breakfast sampai supper. and sempatlah aku jalan2 ke POPULAR & MPH. and found what i've been looking for!! best best. and i also bought 2 new exciting sticker & activities books for my daughters.

yesterday, kontraktor pasang blinds menggantikan langsir biru gelap dlm bilik ni. the effect - WOW! terang benderang bilik ni tanpa switch on the lites. memanglah. jimat letrik. TAPI. mata aku ni sakit sebab silau. nak tengok komputer silau. nak baca pun silau. fikir punya fikir, terpaksalah aku susun semula kedudukan meja ni, supaya boleh buat kerja dengan lebih selesa. 2 days back, dah mintak siap2 dengan akak cleaner tu, 3 beg plastik hitam. as usual, semester baru nak buka so kena buat housekeeping, maka banyak lah kertas2 dan botol2 air mineral utk direcycle oleh akak cleaner tersebut. tapi tak siap2 lagi kemas.

today, email uni tak berfungsi. kenapa ye? tak taulah, hopefully tak ada email2 penting hari ni, taulah hari ni jumaat. i spent the whole morning today jadi PA to my husband. pegi PPI lah, pejabat penerbit lah, faculty office lah, sampai keje sendiri pun tergendala. kalau dapat gaji extra ok juga, kan bang. selepas semua tu selesai, barulah i hibernate in my own cozy room.

what did i accomplish today? searching and searching and searching... some were fruitful, some weren't. tiba time tak berjaya tu, geram je. tapi tak ape, alternative sentiasa ada. so, this coming monday, i must run to the library, for interlibrary-loan. the place i work, library tak subscribe to all e-journals. so mana2 yg tak dapat access tu, boleh request for loan. aku pernah buat a few months back. alhamdulillah berjaya. so, next week nak kena buat lagi la nampaknya...

today also, we plan to go home early. pengasuh anak2 nak pegi KL ada majlis kawin anak sedara dia. and for us, my in-laws nak datang ke rumah maybe tonite, or most probably tomorrow. best juga, meriahlah nanti rumah aku tu...

ok.. cukuplah..

Legend Hotel & Aquaria

last sunday-tuesday we stayed at Legend Hotel. but not on our expenses, my husband was invited as one of the speakers for ICEM2010, the international conference on experimental mechanics, so the stay was fully sponsored by the organisers. we arrived at the hotel at around 9 pm, because it was raining so heavily, there were 3 accidents along the highway, and the traffic was packed, plus the navigator went hairwired and lost satellite reception several times in the city. we could've arrived 2 hours earlier if not for those conditions. tapi tak apa, alhamdulillah akhirnya sampai juga ke sana dengan selamat.

the kids, macam lah sebelum ni tak pernah duduk hotel, were excited as always, tak sempat lagi bellboy bawa masuk beg2, anak2 dah menyerbu masuk ke bath tub. ye lah, seharian dalam kereta, mau nye tak rimas. dalam hujan2 macam tu, berendam dalam air panas memang sangat best! sehinggakan adek yg tolong angkat beg tu kata, baiklah puan tengok anak2 puan dlm bilik air tu, biar dia je yg angkat beg masuk bilik. bagus betul.

monday - the conference began. and i was left with the kids. thought of taking them to the pool, tp hujan. so, instead, bawak diorang pegi jalan2 the mall. sebelum keluar, dah pesan pd anak2, jgn lari2, kena pegang mama etc etc... and alhamdulillah, they all well-behaved. makan dengan penuh sopan.

petang, around 5.30pm, conference ended. semua orang lapar. so hubby called his brothers who live in kl. that nite, all of us went to a seafood restaurant, (tak ingat nama ape & area mana) tp according to my BIL, restoran tu pernah masuk rncgn jalan2 cari makan. hujan lagi. lepas makan, abg E balik utk fetch kak Awe from work. so, Abg Ikin pulak yg bawa kami jalan2 & upon his kids' request, we stopped at klcc. Wah! Adlina paling syok. Fatin berlari2, dan Akmal pun taknak pegang tangan. Nasib baik I have 3 nieces yang dah besar so boleh tolong kejar budak2 ni & pegang diorang. kalau harapkan myself, mau ada yang tergelincir. fountains sangat cantik. klcc pun cantik waktu malam. actually dr balkoni bilik hotel pun boleh nampak klcc & kl tower. i snapped some pictures. tp tak pandai lah pulak nak masukkan dlm post ni. dulu2 ada belajar, tapi dah tak ingat.

ok, tentang aquaria akan disambung kemudian....
