My October babes

October is a special month. Both Nurul's and mak's birthday fall in October. Not only the month but the same day! Too bad for Nurul it fell on her Maths exams paper this year... hehehheheheheh

But we did a little celebration nontheless and took her out for dinner at Fish and Co on the weekend. Hope you enjoyed your treat Kak!!! *HUGS*

Pre birthday Celebration

The baby of the family would turn 9 tomorrow. But since me and Pa would be working, we celebrated his birthday today! The day started with us fetching Siti and Amirus and running errands to collect money and exchange worng purchased items. Then off the IMAX we went! That was my first time ever in the IMAX! It was pretty cool, head kept turning from left to right to make sure i didn't miss out anything from the documentary projected on the globe. Oh, we watched a documentary abot sharks. Riyan LOVES sharks! He had always loved animals, especially sea creatures ever since he was a toddler. He has this beautiful pop-up book on sea creatures, i myself was and still am amazed by the book! This passion made him dream of becoming a marine biologist. 

We had a quick lunch at Manhattan before zooming off to IMAX. Fond of fish, Riyan ordered the usual Fish & Chips. Closing was dinner along with my parents at Downtown East Sakura.

We all hope that you had enjoyed your dau and filled it with fun and laughter, Riyan!

Riyan, Mama will always pray that you and Kakak will succeed in life, both duniawi and ukhrawi and that your dream to become a marine biologist will come true. Be a good role model and always contribute what you have learnt back to help the community. Amin.

Welcome 2014... and Bye 2014

Oh wow! I didn't realise that i hadn't updated anything in 2014 in here!! hehhehehehe 

I must have been so busy, huh? So now, write, i shall...

Don't even know where to begin since 2014 is ending in less than 1 week!

ok, i'll update some photos, hopefully tomorrow, of...:

1. Our current house (also realise i didn't update any here)

2. My Taiwan work trip in June

3. Our Melbourne trip in Dec

4. Random family events

5. Great friends bonding moments... which i'm very, very much gonna miss...

I looked through both my blog pages and (realise again..!) that time flies and i have grown O.L.D.

I don't usually have resolutions for a new year. BUT since things will change drastically in my life from 12 Jan, my 2015 resolution is.... to strive to be a better Muslim, wife, mom and family member, not forgetting to inch closer to Allah s.w.t.. Each day i'm learning from people around me. Both the good as an exemplar and the bad to remind me of consequences and not-to-follow. Dah nak dekat maghrib (a saying a.k.a. as nearing death in English).

Next step to look forward to is going through the year without Pa at home and preparing for our move in Jan 2016... preparing buckets and tissues for the move.... it's gonna be hard but it's a sacrifice and a jihad... 

Insya Allah...  :)
