Saya sayangkan mereka mereka ini, ada sebab yang banyaaaaaak tak terkata.  Sebab utamanya adalah, kerana......

Mereka adalah keluarga saya

Birthday party terkejut

Meylong and Arianna 

The Ar Rahmans 

Not to be missed, my gossip girls whom I've shared many of my ups and down

People will come and go in your life, tapi keluarga akan sentiasa berdiri di belakang no matter what.

Out and about plus COFFEE

Sundays is all about family (and the chores not to be missed lah kan).  Best giler kalau pagi pagi boleh lepak lepak, coffee coffee without lifting a finger on your house chores kan... purely heaven!

I am now at Starbuck that is located in my fav shopping mall, sipping coffee with my lappy and a novel, uhh and of course with my fav people of all, the love of my life lah who else.  Taking some break before coming back to earth :p

Wishing you a happy and great Sunday!

Novel Review - Kuli Rumah Untuk Dia

Haloooo!

Tak pernah terfikir that one fine day saya akan ketawa terbahak bahak membaca novel, especially romantic novel, halah novel chenta la. Serius, tak pernah! And its not like ketawa sipi sipi atau senyum senyum kambing,  NO, its ketawa terbahak bahak yang datangnya dari perut! ha ambik kau statement. muahahahaaaa 

After a rough week, i should thank the author la, mmg destressed lepas baca novel ni.

Jalan cerita dia sempoi but very meaningful. Its about anak orang kaya kerja jadi maid aka pembantu rumah or PR (bukan Public Relation Officer ye puan puan), Pembantu Rumah ok. Sengal tak sengal. Dengan tak reti masaknya, tak tau nak buat kerja rumah sampai macam mana nak mop lantai pun tak tau. Gila ke apa, dengan skill domestic yang entah apa apa boleh lagi berani nak apply kerja jadi PR. The whole kerja jadi PR  kinda thing ni, is kind of a turning point of her life la.

Ada banyak insiden insiden yang kelakar sengal (its a good sengal, anyway) dalam novel ni, perempuan yang biasanya vogue (cara sebutan vo-gi-euw tau :p) the vazz tetiba dekat rumah tepek bedak sejuk memanjang, sebab nak cover identity kononnya.  Kelakar! Rasanya last ketawa macam ni masa baca majalah Gila Gila, which is a verrrrry long time a go.

Dalam dia buat kita ketawa tu, ada jugak dia selitkan part part nasihat.  Moment moment romantika d'amore pun sangat menyegat sanubari. Yezza, dalam gelak gelak tu pon dalam hati ada taman woooo.  Bahasa yang Cik Author gunakan  pun sempoi dan senang difahami sebab dialek harian yang kita biasa guna hari hari la. Itu yang agaknya buatkan mood santai tu datang bila start baca Kuli Rumah Untuk Dia ni.

If you are looking for a light reading and seriously in need to unwind (bukan buang angin ye tetapi untuk mereleasekan tension), I highly recommend Kuli Rumah Untuk Dia.

So 2 thumbs up untuk Cik Author sebab menceriakan hari saya yang agak mendung beberapa hari ni.

Love you deep deep

Weekly update

Hola amigos!

Tetiba nak buat weekly update, reason? sengal and lagi satu as Matt Damon cakap dlm citer We bought a Zoo ke ape entah, dia kata, "why not" .... wah!! introduction saja sudah poyo.

Anyway, I have a reason to be poyo this week, and reasonnya adalah kerana saya adalah seorang perempuan yang tidak cukup rehat dan tidak sihat.  Yeah, I was quite busy last week looking after my sicked children, kesian ada yang semput. Dr advise to admit him to hospital, and as usual, mummy will drop everything and anything to be with her babies.

"Mummy, suruh diorang buat betul betul masukkan jarum tu ye..."

Penah bagi instruction dekat nurse atau dr macam mana nak buat line? cara cara cari urat? Che Lynn pernah. Nasib baik la diorang layan je, bagi nasihat dekat dr mcm la awak tu dr kan. Tak kena halau dengan dr pon dah syukur alhamdulillah :D

On treatment, tapi still boleh posing senyum lagi

 Day 2 - "Abang Adik ingatkan kita tidur hotel  malam tadi mummy.."

Hai la anak, awak tu sedap lah tidur atas katil, mummy ni dah macam ahli cirque du soleil tau, atas kerusi dah mcm mcm cara mummy try untuk tidur dengan selesa.

Sayang anak daddy

We're finally home after 3 days 2 nights, wohoooooo! There is no better place then home, guys! 

Day 4, mummy back to office with sore muscles, sakit kepala, macam nak demam...tapi ku tahankan jua jebat!

Day 5, mummy surrender, tak tahan.  Need to see Dr.  Dr's comment, "you tak cukup rehat ke....? Blood pressure rendah sgt ni. Hari ni MC, rest dekat rumah"

So I thought, life would be normal after that and I guess it too soon. Abang besar pulak muntah muntah sampai 3 - 4 pagi. Pukul 5 baru mummy berani tidur, and wake up 2 hours after that to go to office. Cari rejeki, bang :D

So thats pretty much it, there is no jalan jalan during Malaysia Day long holiday sebab busy merehatkan diri. Its OK, there will be another long holiday, yang penting anak anak sihat sejahtera. They are my no 1 priority.

Lagipun, we already made plan for Christmas holiday, though. And I have a short trip with my sister dearest and the gang, insya allah before that sometime in Nov and a hen party in an exotic island abroad in Jan next year... Wah, living on a jet plane la cikonon.

That all for now peeps. Stay healthy and happy ya!

Rembau most wanted

"Ayah kepada moyang, Raja Bujang dulu datang dari Pagar Ruyong satu rombongan dengan Raja Melewar, tapi dia turun di Kelang dulu, " hmmm ok ok, kita angguk saja, dalam kepala dah buat mental family tree, Alias Abdul Rahman Ismail then Raja Bujang ke??. Nak kene study further ni, malu kalau anak tanya nanti, mommy tak tau nak jawab.

"Abis tu kenapa nama depan kita takde Raja?" seperti yang sudah dijangkakan mesti ada jugak yang nak menyampok. I choose to ignore the question.

Anyway, minggu lepas ada perjumpaan keturunan Raja Bujang Pagar Ruyong dekat Kampung Rendah, Rembau. Happening! sampai saja masak lomak tolor itik dah tunggu, siap ada ikan masin pekasam, sayur segala ada. Itu baru starter, khas untuk early bird, yang lewat sampai minta maaf je lah ye. Main course kena tunggu Undang sampai.

Ramai sedara mara datang, tuan rumah punye layanan memang 1st class even ramai yang dia tak kenal tapi still buat kita rasa welcomed.

Yes, we are the Rembau most wanted y'all

Muka-muka first time ambil gambar dari tab anak.  As usual, the Ar Rahmans datang lengkap berpakaian tradisional ok, the men pakai baju melayu warna kuning mustard-ish, ladies tak ikut thema atas sebab sebab yang tak dapat dielakkan :D

Sorry, terlebih teruja pulak :p 

Dalam perjalanan nak ke Kampung Rendah tu, dah nampak signboard cendol, wahhh mesti try nih. Lepas tu boleh cari sekali keli dgn daging salai. Rembau's must have tu. Balik nanti kita cari dan beli banyak banyak.

Ini dia cendol madu Rembau, memang terbaik!

Cuma, ikan keli dan daging salai je tak sempat beli sebab dah terlajak jalan. Takpalah, tak de rezeki.

Ini baru perjumpaan yang kedua, manalah tau, next year buat dekat Rembau lagi.

Adakah saya perlu sign off sebagai Che Lynn, the Minang princess?? gelak gelak dan guling atas lantai.  Nak cakap Minang pun tak reti tapi nasib baik paham sikit.

Ndak ada juo upiek ni (amacam I speaking?)

Notes from a Liverpool-fan-by-marriage :D

I am not a football fan, never before, not now and I am very confident, ever. But living in a house full of boys and their dad, its really hard to run away from it.

Saturday and Sunday mornings are football training days for the kids, their dad will have a match or sometime on both days.  Things will get harder during football season, English Premier League, La Liga, European Cup, World Cup whatever whatever lah, total nightmare ok.

Despite how I feel about football, I will try my best to be there for my kids' practice and their dad's matches. Why, if you're wondering.... I only did it in the name of LOVE. Yes, only love can drag me to football field, no other than that.  That is the power of love, my friend.

They are Liverpool diehard fan, so it makes me a Liverpool fan by marriage

This should be a notice from my husband to our neighbours during football season :

But then, since they can tolerate with my shopping spree madness, then we should compromise isn't..I shall not complaint no more
